It's not ageism when all three candidates are very old. If you look back to when Biden was VP and how he speaks now there is a noticeable difference.

I think both Biden and Sanders would have had a hard time campaigning for the reasons you listed. I believe Sanders would have stood a better chance again because of the populist vs populist approach. I believe Sanders supporters are as vocal as Trump supporters and you dont have that with Biden supporters at all.

You can't lobby much against Biden because he doesnt stand for much (again obviously opinion, and Im not trying to start a fight or argument) as compared to Sanders. They have vastly different goals in mind for a presidency.
I doesn't really matter. The metric is popularity. Period.

You can delve into metrics like the time spent on a page but in the long run popularity is the king since it also reflects dwell time.
10+ year old C++ is most likely not good C++. I wouldn't trust such a network service to be reasonably secure. There are better solution nowadays even in the web development domain, that don't compromise on performance.
Curiously, this is not the case for Ukrainian - it has the same names as Russian for all days of the week except for Sunday, which is literally called "do-nothing".

Even more curiously, Russian also used that word for Sunday, but then it gradually shifted to mean the whole week, requiring a new name for the day. Technically, this means that the entire week is "do-nothing" in Russian. ~
Right that's a reasonable claim. bocker makes false claims though, which causes a bunch of confusion (which seems to be the case for the person I was replying to).

Your comment reminds me of this: https://rachelbythebay.com/w/2018/04/28/meta/

>"I am THE ONE. You only need to know me. I am better than all of you."
> Hiring people is costly

Only for the smallest of businesses. Your commercial rent is costly, your insurance is costly, your materials are costly. People are the least costly resource for any non union (most of world) work. Training is costly, in many cases, granted. Maybe that should be the focus, in the cases where it applies. Saying workers are costly across the board is incorrect.
> "But I think he might possibly have had a better shot at beating Trump than Biden"

If the populists didn't turn out enough to give Sanders the primaries, they're not going to turn out enough to give him the general election.

> "I also think Bernie's approach to healthcare during the times we are in now would hold a lot of favor."

I think that, outside of his own base, it was pretty clear to voters that Sanders was making promises that he'd never be able to get past Congress. They likely wouldn't have voted for Sanders in the general election. Not that I particularly like him but Biden is making far more realistic promises and has a better shot at unseating Trump IMO.
I don't use privacy.com for the actual privacy. I just use it so I can easily "turn off" a card for a specific vendor whenever I need to. I like to sign up for free trials with cards that have a $1 spend limit, so they can't charge me if I forget to cancel.

But yes, I think you are right. The "privacy" part of privacy.com is a bit misleading.

Credit card rewards is a bizarre almost impossible to get rid of idea. Those "rewards" are amortized across all customers for a given business by the virtue of a higher transaction fee. There is no such thing as free lunch obviously. It has a positive feedback loop - the more people use credit cards (because of rewards and fraud protection), the more the competition to provide better rewards. This competition drives higher transaction fees to business which in turn pass those onto the customers. At the end, consumers lose no matter how you slice the pie.

The only way to get rid of this racket is to pass a law that bans credit card rewards. Watch the chaos that ensues after that.

The more positive way to look at this is that a consumer using a CC is paying 2-3% extra for a product to have an isolation between their bank account and the business charging them. The reward thing is a distraction to lure consumers. 2-3% doesn't sound like a bad deal for fraud protection, isolation and some perks. Someone has to take on liability risk and that's what CC companies do. It also polices businesses from defrauding and exploiting the consumer - I would guess that if a business has a very high percentage of charge backs, they'll be investigated and reprimanded, if not blocked by the CC company.

No Code / Low Code skeptic here.

I fail to see how using this GUI mixed with raw code approach would make my development workflow any faster.

For example, I've posted below a Node.js implementation of what you created in the YouTube demo linked in the OP, and it took me less time to write than it did for you to create the same "workflow" using the GUI in the video demo.

And the best part is I can run this JS code on my own server, or as a cloud function on AWS Lambda, etc. I retain complete control and avoid vendor lock in.
And there is no way you and your team can compete with AWS on cloud function pricing. So where is the value for developers in your offer?

It seems like you are offering a managed compute service at a much higher price point than AWS, and then trying to justify that price point by tacking a GUI onto it.
At best the GUI will be able to abstract away a little bit of boilerplate code, but inevitably the interface it exposes will not be as flexible, fully-featured, expressive, or IMO, as easy to reason about, as the interface exposed by any modern programming language.

const sgMail = require('@sendgrid/mail');
sgMail.setApiKey(process.env.SENDGRID_API_KEY);

const res = await pool.query(`SELECT * FROM USERS WHERE "lastSeen" < (now() - INTERVAL '4 weeks')`)
res.rows.forEach(row => {
let message = `Hi ${row.name}, we haven't seen you in a while`;
if (row.phone) {
twilioclient.messages.create({
body: message,
from: '+15017122661',
to: row.phone
})
.then(message => console.log(message.sid));
} else {
const msg = {

from: 'test@example.com',
subject: 'Come back',
text: message,
};
sgMail.send(msg)

console.error(error);

}
});
}

We're not related to them but I like to believe our app is superior in terms of features which cannot be found in Cloudapp, such as the ability to preview over 200 file formats online, supporting folders, team dashboard, receiving files from anyone without requiring them to have an account, ability to draw and change webcam modes during recording, supporting voice clips and note taking tools, and more.

The reason for so many features is because we've been working on our platform since 2012 and we continue to add more features every month.

Well, I think Biden is not as competent as Trump. Democrats already lost it as far as I can see and I might be wrong. There are so many issues with Biden(his speech problems, changing facts) and in the debates he will loose against trump which is Trump's main strategy.

Most of people will lean towards trump in case of confusion because he already run it as president.

I am an outsider and might be completely wrong but seems like Democrats does not learn the lesson from the past. They played again the people and voters.
What does any of this has to do with the Soviet system, aside from the name? It wasn't a post-scarcity society. And there's a long-running argument that any actual post-scarcity society would naturally evolve into communism, regardless of what they call it (see also: Star Trek).

There should be a medical residency-style job matching algorithm. Most jobs are way more fungible across companies than corporations would like to think. If a graduate would be almost equally ecstatic to work as an SE-1 at Apple, Amazon, Google, Netflix, etc...why should they have to apply to each one independently? Of course, the applicant would rank them by preference. If none of them want the applicant, he/she would "drop" to less sought after firms.

Companies on the platform would agree on certain tests the applicant would need to take, and at which institution. They would also agree on the information they all want (in a common app). Interviews would play little to no role in the process, since only technical interviews offer any marginal value according to emprical evidence. If social skills are important, they can be included in an empirically proven test of social skills. Imagine a VR simulation where you are grouped with other applicants, and ML algos are fed dozens of inputs based on your interactions in the simulated environment. Human testmasters can still have input into the process, delivering guided exercises, looking out for algo-hacking, interacting with test-takers, and weeding out anomalies.

The huge amount of energy in ocean waves and currents, compared to air (water is about 800 times as heavy as air) also is a challenge. It destroys anything that isn’t built extremely sturdy.

And that’s just water. Sea water is salty. It destroys steel and electronics even if it isn’t hitting it.
Socialization days need to be synchronized. Errands often need to be anti-synchronized, so that your time off falls when most others are working.

Fun days are somewhere in between. You need your group to have its time off all at the same time, but sometimes a service employee needs to be working at that time.

I'd think that in Mexico, those resort workers would probably prefer that everybody get Sundays off. But resort guests and management would prefer that services be available every day of the week, including Sundays.

The described arrangement appears to be that full staffing is equal to 6/7 of the employee roster. Or, conversely, that the employee roster is 7/6 (117%) of the daily staffing requirement. How difficult would it be to expand the roster to 7/5 (140%) of the requirement, or 7/4 (175%), for two or three days off per week, respectively? That still wouldn't address the non-synchronized schedule, but it would provide more downtime.

Not in this case. At work, we use AWS and GCP, everything that runs on top of Kubernetes is deployed on both clouds. If I isolate the number of service stopping incidents this year for that vertical, I can find 3 on GCP's side, and zero on AWS.

There's also just a lot of inertia embedded in existing conventions and paradigms. When the spreadsheet was still relatively young, there were a number of products that were spreadsheet-like but different and none succeeded.

Was the spreadsheet as we know it today the very best possible approach? Maybe. But not necessarily.

Of course, the original Visicalc model has been massively extended in certain ways. Take Pivot Tables as one example. But core spreadsheets as most of us use them are still basically Visicalc with a nicer interface.

Yes, and the existing cable monopolies in the US would like it to stay that way, so they can continue to collect rent on their coaxial cable wires from decades ago.

That’s why they fight municipal fiber installation in court. If they didn’t do this, they wouldn’t be so evil, and also why fiber internet needs to be a utility, like electricity, water, gas, and sewage.

Also, since the media companies are also the owners of the wire in the case or Comcast, they can prioritize their traffic and de prioritize competitor’s traffic.

These things go in pairs. Fascism and other forms of right-wing extremism were a response to the socialist revolutions of early 20th century. And it, in turn, reinvigorated left-wing movements in countries it affected.

I don't think BDD scales well with complex requirements, the end result gets quite messy in my opinion, here is an example [1]. xUnit tests usually have a method per test, much easy to reason about.

You’re conveniently ignoring that the percentage-based fine structure in itself is almost literally “accounting for scale”.

The minimum (of the maximum) set by the “whichever is higher” clause is needed to remain effective with non- and low-revenue entities. Something like Clearview (universal face recognition but startup with little revenue) would otherwise be free to ignore the law.

If your small company does enough damage to warrant a 20 million fine, it probably deserves to die. These fines also aren’t assessed arbitrarily: there’s a specific list of factors to take into account, and all decisions are subject to judicial review under the established principles of proportionality.
If your best examples of security failings from Google are from 7 and 10 years ago suggests a fairly robust security track record, does it not?

It's just a general behavioral trend I (and plenty of others) have noticed in arguments against regulation coming from monopolies. When a big tech company claims a regulation it dislikes would hurt newer players from competing with it, you have to ask... why are they so opposed then?

Is it out of the goodness of their hearts that large companies complain about regulation hurting small businesses? Or is it because the regulation will cost them a ton of money they'd rather keep in the bank, and they know they already have enough market capture to continue to obliterate small businesses either way?

When someone says that regulations on large companies will actually hurt small businesses, the first thing you should do, is look who is claiming that, and see where they get their funding from. It's almost always a think tank funded by the biggest player in the market being discussed.
How certain are we about the low mutation rate? Since many millions of people get the flu each year, there are a lot of opportunities for mutation. Also, perhaps it takes a long time for a mutation to spread widely enough for us to be aware of it. Would it already be apparent if some mutation of coronavirus existed that overcame resistance and allowed reinfection? It seems like the selection pressure in favor of such a mutation would be weak when very little of the population is immune.

They gotta make their money somehow. I love them because they have saved me from fraud a few times. Anytime I need to buy something on a sketchy website where I don't trust their security, I use a privacy.com card.

In fact, I used their card to pay my water bill, because I didn't trust the city security, and in fact discovered a massive citywide fraud because of it.

One of the nice things about privacy.com cards is the cards are assigned to a vendor, so if there is a charge from another vendor it rejects the charge no matter how small and warns you.

I got a 56 cent charge from a "gardening service" on my water bill card. Usually most banks won't let you set charge alerts below $1, so they use a $0.56 charge to fall below the limit. But since I had a privacy card I got notified, so I notified the city, and after their investigation they found that their entire credit card database had been compromised.

So it saved me from fraud and it saved everyone else in the city too!

(I have no affiliation to privacy.com, I've just been using them since their alpha and I'm a big fan)
Decades ago in the US I worked at a big factory that had an odd schedule very similar to this. It was absolutely exhausting. I was far less productive then than I ever have been. Also my coworkers were by and large imbeciles and criminals since anyone normal or competent quit after six months as I did.
Best Buy warehouses work on that schedule. Sundays are off, except during peak. You're supposed to get two days off a week, but it's entirely possible for the non-Sunday day off to be Monday of one week and Saturday of the next.

This is somewhat better than the stores, where most full time workers must have open availability 7 days a week. I think the longest I went without a day off was 11 days, during the holiday season. My managers went probably 2-3 weeks.

We were supposed to have been better than most US retail in these respects. Half of America is a de-facto vassal state to the other half.
It's the first such calendar that staggered the week. French revolutionary calendar still had the day off on the same day of the 10-day week for everybody.

But, yes, Russian revolutionaries consciously re-enacted a quite a few superficial but symbolic things from the French revolutionary period, much like US was cosplaying the Roman Republic in its founding era.
It's hard to grasp that old "bad" laws could still be very progressive.

I remember a teacher telling us that "an eye for an eye" should be viewed not as a crazy excessive response, but as a very modern "the punishment should be commensurate to the crime", which was not a given.
I remember reading that credit cards lower the transaction threshold substantially so it's worth it to businesses to pay the higher transaction fees.

I can't remember where (might have been HN or patio11), but it was a business owner arguing that the rewards to incentivize card use are better for the businesses overall.
I use it exactly for the same reason. I tend to forget memberships also
