Hi there, Matt Jackson from Twilio here. I’m the Product Manager for Super SIM. You’re right, we currently don’t have support for Verizon but we hope to be able to add it in the future. We understand that different developers have different connectivity preferences, so we designed our system to be flexible to adding new partners to the platform. As we continue to add networks, the networks of the future should become available to Super SIMs bought today.

With Super SIM you can also have access to multiple networks at once. For example, if you’re connected to T-Mobile and move to an area where there isn’t coverage, your device can automatically switch over to AT&T. This gives you redundant connectivity too in case any one network or tower goes down.
I was thinking about something similar. How can you be sure the output doesn't just answer with F* you.
If that is the only thing that they can do to be part of the movement that is fine but it is a bit ridiculous.
Ah, thanks for mentioning that. If you get the chance, the other two are pretty great as well. As an aside, one of my favorite authors, Neil Asher, recently blogged about A.E. van Vogt:

Why is there a lot of presence of these virtue-signaling SJW types in tech?
Those women are dating, or at least having sex with, different guys.
Yes, for instance not returning errors in some cases when writes fail. I think this was until version 2 but to be fair they fixed this kind of stuff and started to deal with this differently later on. However their reputation never fully recovered from this.
Maturity has nothing to do with it. There are very few men on this planet who not be interested in sleeping with the women you just described... just like most women wouldn't turn down Brad Pitt.
What hardware would you recommend?

> If you drop the restriction that women are attached only to a single man, a lot of the causes for unrest go away.

Not if the attachments become grouped such that some have many connections and many have none.
I'd argue that most men that won't have sex probably have some character issues they need to work out personally, or otherwise need to develop into somebody interesting. Dopamine hits from other places are more easy to come by, so it wouldn't surprise me that they just don't care enough, relative to their peers.
My friends and I did this, but with horses, during a camping trip once. The results were hilarious and still something we joke and laugh about.
Meh, parents are broke too.
No, it's more like "this society doesn't really work for me, to hell with it!" Basically, the most dangerous people are those with nothing to gain by remaining lawful and nothing to lose by becoming criminals.
Yeah that's fair. One could also just make one pretty easily, it doesn't require too much knowledge to modify an existing semi-automatic.
Do you spend a lot of time on marketing/sales?
Ah, I feel this is because something deeper happened than simply "a small subset of men are monopolizing the sex marketplace", something more on the level of morality and ego than can be represented in concrete facts.

Specifically, I believe we've seen a devaluation and financialization of morality (what makes me a valuable person?) in a broader sense. Christopher Lasch caught the beginning of this back in the 70s, arguing that we now judge ourselves in terms of the views of our peer group rather than relative to an authority figure or multigenerational community.

The result is that sleeping around becomes a mark of virtue (at least, among men). This sentiment is at odds with more "traditional" forms of morality and virtue, particularly coming from religious traditions, and the resulting internal conflict can cause a lot of psychic distress, a lot of asking "who am I really?" and "am I really good enough, is she merely 'settling' for me?"

If you can navigate that conflict and feel satisfied that you were good enough to marry, then I applaud you for having a level head and for having your values in order. But I expect many men do not feel this way :(
The problem is most men go after women 18-25 years old. They don't want the women that are 25+. This is important because it is often men who select which women to go after. Women typically don't go after men in terms of dating selection.
I totally believe you. I'm honestly really wondering what you look like now, or at least how your appearance could be described.

Good catch. Parent brought in the word inferior.
In Netherland they tend to be based on your function, and within that function, how well you perform it. Companies tend to want the best people in the most important functions. If you think you're performing the function of a higher paid role, that's a good argument to ask for a raise. Or a promotion.
To be honest, sex has to be the one shining example of how much things don't change as civilisation evolves.

As much as we might like to think apps like Tinder change the game, sex is very very location based - always has been always will be. And a crowded bar and admiring glances act pretty much the same way as swiping left or right or whatever does.

There is always competition for desirable resources.
Even actuallier, the first book was titled "The World of Ā" but "to reduce printing costs, the 1953 and 1964 Ace Books paperback editions were entitled The World of Null-A, and the symbol Ā was replaced with "null-A" throughout the text." [1]

> Especially in contrast with other circles that I ran in, specifically nerdier programmers working at FAANG.

Nerdier programmers should spend less time talking among themselves about Redis, NodeJS and Angular at those bars and more time talking to women that are there about something other than nerdy stuff. One would be amazed how far even cursory knowledge of different topics, current events, food, wine and general happenings in the city goes to establish that the biggest nerds are quirky rather than dull. Quirky people get laid. Dull people don't.
So what? We should not be normalizing this kind of language.
Society can't "wake up", this is what it wanted. Women being equal, but not interested in "lesser" partners, causes a natural imbalance. You can't "fix" the imbalance without removing free will from market participants.
But only a tiny fraction of those work on CPU development, so it's not exactly a fair comparison. It's definitely not a numbers game.

However, Intel has (used to have ? I haven't followed recently but I'd be surprised it changed) two separate design teams, one in Oregon, the other in Haifa, working in a sort of "tick tock" way (each would work on one set of tick-tock when that was still a thing), so that, at least, was definitely an advantage in terms of numbers for them.

Whether those were efficient thanks to Intel's management/bureaucracy or, mattered at all since the 2015 process issues, however, is a a completely different story.
If you benefit from the union's work, you should absolutely have to pay for that work.
I don’t think that settling down with someone that isn’t sexually attracted to you enough is a recipe for a healthy relationship.

On the plus side if you’re in your early 30’s and economically stable and well enough off for your area your get to experience life on easy mode.

I got to experience that after my last brake up before I got fed up and went for something more stable and it was really an eye opening experience.

I pretty much spent my whole 20’s in a single LTR that ended so I never had to experience Tinder before but it was a whole other experience.
> it's really bad if you’re fat, disabled, or even just socially awkward

Isn't it easier to hide these things on a Tinder profile than in a nightclub?
I'd love someone qualified to answer this... feel like this happens to me all the time
The problem is your spouse will not really find you attractive sexually. She will be with you because you have money and are a good provider. She really wants to be with the guy she partied with in her younger years, not you.
My best female friend is ugly. She is writing to model-like guys on instagram, visiting them and is having sex with them. EVERY SINGLE TIME they never text her back, she still falls in love with them and is heart-broken for 2-3 weeks. This has become already pathological. She has done therapy and still falls into depression again.

The only thing she can do: find hot 10/10 model guys that jet around the world for their Gucci/Prada/Chanel model jobs, fuck with them and feel great for a short period of time.

I try to help her in the difficult times ofc, but it annoys me a lot how bad these guys behave.

The first version was really short, something like 80 pages and priced at $2.99, though as you can see from some reviews people apparently thought that was too short even for that price. I ended up writing what was going to be a sequel but just added it into the original and upped the price. It's been interesting to see the price elasticity of it... I actually sell about the same number of copies at $2.99 (even when it's the longer version of the book) as I do at $6.99.
Looks like many of the reviews are from people who didn't even read it but want to cancel the author.
Then why are they building walls? Why are there armed guards?

Rust have procedural macros https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/procedural-macros.html
This has always been the case; it's just that the internet has facilitated dissemination of this knowledge very rapidly.

Read "The Game" by Neil Strauss and the whole alt.seduction.fast thing - this was happening in the early/mid/late 90s long before the advent of online dating.

This is old knowledge coming to surface. Nothing has fundamentally changed in the behavior/logic of men or women.

The rear wheel would likely shear upwards along the seat tube when the rider sits on it. I suppose with enough strength it could work, would be quite a heavy bicycle.
Yup, which is why the reopen crowd is doomed to failure. They can force the stores open and the workers into danger but they can't force the customers to come. Some will, but not enough to keep the places in the black. The worst of both worlds.
Thanks, those are clear and concrete. Some quick thoughts (can’t get detailed ones since GitLab is having a friends and family day):

1. This works but not nearly with all functionality.

2. Maybe an options to have related in core and more detailed relations like blocking in a paid version.

3. I’m surprised this isn’t possible already. Is this easy to contribute for anyone?
> Unions are about democracy in the workplace. If everyone is in a different union, there can be no legitimate democratic decisions on behalf of the workers.

Wut?! TIL where people got the belief that single communist party could rule democratically. We all know how about those experiments played out in history
There's a lot of "foreign girls" that aren't asian, and the competition space you described was artificially created. If you want to claim "offensive" and "wrong", you need to provide a better response.
It is interesting that you are simultaneously ressentful of women not dating men of their age and simultaneously happy about old men dating young women.

Given that there are similar amount of girls and boys, this guarantees that younger men of next generation will have to compete with older men for same pool of women.
Just gonna say a lot of the comments in this thread make it sound like the commenters believe this is women's fault or good looking guys' fault. Hopefully I misunderstood your comments...
Hows the hackability on this? I'd love a $100 tablet with all the Raspberry Pi-like pins exposed.
I would really like to know which fast food restaurant allows "normal" eating. They all use sugar, they are all way too fatty and salty. And vegetables are hard. (No, fried potatoes do not count)

> "You can, however, find packaged sugarfree yogurt"
That stuff is a miracle of modern chemistry. It has, however, only a passing resemblance to actual yoghurt. Nobody who grew up in Europe really wants sugar-free. It's "no sugar added" that matters. Nobody wants fat-free, either. And there are quite a few studies making the point that these "healthy" food actually contribute to weight gain.

"Starbucks is on every corner and sells plain vegetables, plain fruit, plain eggs"... if you're lucky. Usually, it's sold out fairly quickly.

In general, yes, getting healthy food in the US is much harder than it is in Europe. The vast majority of food here is processed to within an inch of its life, and the remainder is incredibly expensive, because it's treated as a luxury good.

I've spent a few decades in Europe, as well as a few in the US. I'm fairly confident I know which food I can get where in either place - and the US is severely broken. Trust me, I wish it weren't. But healthy food is difficult, and becomes extra-hard as you leave bigger cities with specialty stores behind.

But the truth is most men never had any privilege. They could get married and get in a monogamous relationship. If they went out and pursued women causally, it wasn't working just like it isn't working now. Its a complete myth that men held the cards. The same high caste men that held the cards back then still hold the cards now.

Well, you are getting more than just raw bandwidth, there are other considerations with topology, performance, and security.

Google has two network tiers now, so there is a lower priced option. Note(1) most go down with volume, but do not get that close to $0.01/Gb. Note(2) intra data center / cloud networking has different prices.

Is the issue your application is running in a different cloud than the database? If so, you will want to move your application to the same cloud simply for latency reasons.
Do you have any blog post on your experience of writing the book? I've got a few topics but I couldn't get started at all. Perhaps, the fear of not completing it or the # of pages I see with Packt Books (like ~300 pages). Do you have any tips for cases like this?
Anecdata: shin splints injuries are usually bad biomechanics and easy to solve given interest on the topic. After many years without any running at all, it took me 6 months from 0km to running 5 half-marathons (1 every 15 days at the end of such period) without injuries. I was 35 when I started, I think. I enjoy barefoot techniques quite a lot, but I recommend caution.

> it could also imply she's thought superior based on gender

From talking to the women in my life, that would also be bad. They've told me that being treated as "superior" for their gender makes them feel that the rest of who they are - their accomplishments, knowledge, skills, etc. - is invalidated.

> saying "ladies first" is not ipso facto indicative of a misogynist view

You're right, but saying "ladies first" makes many women feel patronized - not a good thing.

> especially among people who were taught it is good manners

I'd say to those people: even if you learned that "ladies first" is good manners, that doesn't mean it still is. It's important to listen to the people around you to hear how they want to be treated, and what we're arguing in this thread is that women these days don't want to hear "ladies first" because - as stated before - it makes them feel patronized.
I can only speak to my own experience, but as a 20-something male (now in my early 30s) living in SF, there were a lot of societal norms pushing men to have more sexual encounters. It's somewhat of a badge of pride to achieve a "+1" which is code for sleeping with someone new. Forces like this can lead to men working harder to have sex with more people for its own sake. On the flip side, women have many opposing forces to contend with like "slut shaming," which don't affect men as much.

Additionally, being above or below someone's "league" is a bit of an oversimplification, because there are multiple axes to attraction. It's quite possible to be physically yet not mentally attracted to someone, and thus authentically enjoy sexual encounters with people who you'd prefer not to date seriously, let alone marrying.

If you accept both of these situations, it's not difficult to imagine a world in which many women are having sex with men where there's mutual sexual attraction but no possibility for a relationship, because the man is only interested in sex. Of course this happens the other way too, although I'd guess much less often.

An ex of mine (who I'd remained friendly with) once showed me her Tinder messages and it was full of attractive, confident, successful men who clearly were only interested in sex with her, and who didn't mind being almost offensively direct, presumably because they all had lots of other options for sex.
Hi there, Matt Jackson from Twilio here. I’m the Product Manager for Super SIM. This is definitely not a dumb question. In fact, all of us on the Super SIM team have really enjoyed reading this thread and learning what you have questions about!

Super SIMs can be put into any device that has a SIM card slot, including almost any cell phone, but they are not designed to be a replacement for your cell phone’s SIM card. Super SIM is specialized for IoT: it doesn't support traditional circuit network components used for traditional voice calling or SMS so these won't work like you expect. However, any apps that use data instead for chat or VoIP calling, such as iMessage or WhatsApp, will work. Overall, we wouldn't recommend using your Super SIM as your regular SIM for your consumer cell phone, although some people at Twilio have put Twilio SIMs into their phones to see what this is like :)
Oh for sure I recognize my position is a minority, and no that's not what I'm arguing. Even people making much less than I do typically have goals they want to meet though and I wonder how many young guys in general are burning away at their goals at the expense of their time for physical non-commital encounters. Especially and not in-spite of the fact its very tough to get by in general right now.

Edit: And earning a lot doesn't entirely correlate with how hard you work, I agree. I learned selling yourself the right way makes it a lot easier. Which is why for people outside of my bubble as you put it I imagine they are grinding even more.
Software Engineering, and in my industry you have to have a degree. You simply won't get hired otherwise.
This is one aspect of my belief that Western society, especially that in North America, is crumbling before our very eyes and yet with each piece that hits the ground, instead of seeing concern we're hearing "PROGRESS!".

As part of a couple now considering bringing children into the world, the absolute shitshow that I predict the West to be constantly embroiled in 20 years from now when they would be adults is something that's weighing heavily on my mind.
Your premise is based on a fallacy.

The guy who is among the top 10% of men is the one who is good enough to party with AND good enough to marry. However, though this guy has a plethora of women at his disposal, he can only select one for marriage.

For the women who weren't chosen, their first choice guy is no longer an option, so they have to settle for a plan B (that is, a less desirable man).

So even if you were "good enough" to marry, you weren't first choice in that either.
If you liked this, I highly recommend reading his book VALIS. It's psuedo autobiographical, and deals with the odd "visions" and "revelations" PKD experienced later in his life. He was likely suffering from some sort of mental illness, but to close the discussion there ignores the lessons PKD himself taught us in his earlier works. Reality is weird and slippery, and we don't really know what's going on.
People should read @starpilot and ask themselves how much of their dating goals are about love and relationships and how much has nothing to do with women and everything to do with impressing other men.

I 100% agree that someone else has it better than you. Pick any facet of your life and this will be true. There's no practical value to focusing on your status among other men unless status is actually your goal for dating.

You're going to have to do X amount of work on yourself and on the process. That doesn't change just because some other guy has to do .25X.
Has your friend gone to witness it themselves? I had gone to the local protest in our city. My next door neighbor, unaware that I had marched, told me that it was a violent mob. She didn't believe me when I contradicted her until I showed her video footage I took with my phone. She didn't have a good answer when I questioned who told her it was violent; I'm assuming it's just wrong information passed along in social media.

Having been given up on it years from now, so I can talk out of experience.
The number and clarity of with which women kept and keep on signifying to me to have sex with them, or just they interested in me, are just crazy.
Usually when I start a friendly chat, it takes 2 minutes without me trying anything to make them come closer to me and make em do their shit, whatever they do when they are into you and willing to show it to you.
I don't want to go into story telling, because you can have your own research and read some other peoples experiences about this. Search for nofap in google.

There is of course a lot more to than just not doing something, but it is a really huge leap towards the correct road. (which is in this case getting more sex :))
