I feel stupid for just realizing that social media account save previous passwords? How far back does it go?
I'm left with a lot of questions like...

When someone is arrested there are certain legal requirements, like the miranda warning, that must be done. Are those all being followed?

People need to be charged in the proper jurisdiction for the proper laws. Is that happening?

A person can only be held in custody for a limited period of time without charges being filed. Is this being followed?

Are the details documented anywhere?
> the way otherwise intelligent people are corrupted scares me.

This is because of appeals to emotions. Our intelligence emerged from the animal - which we still are.

It isn't a question of intelligence. Intelligence can be easily manipulated if you manipulate emotions, which is what most content does. Look at how easily marketing works - these things work on intelligent and unintelligent people.

The problem isn't critical thinking - that is why intelligent people argue without any progress against these people. It isn't about intelligence. It's about emotion, animal desire, and manipulation. The way to not fall into the trap is to be aware.
I think so long as people understand how science works, or the journalists provide some explanatory insight about it, reporting interesting science news to the public should be OK. Scientists tend to be skeptical of systems that decide who should have access to information before others.

Most findings are unreproduced. It usually takes someone with a reason to be interested, to reproduce a study.
Say you owe 300K in med school loan. On average, a doctor in the US makes ~230-250K (even if the doctor does not have a speciality). If one lives in Los Angeles, CA with 250K/year income (in CA metropolitan areas, generalist doctors usually make more than 250K/year; it's more like 280K/year minimum), the take home pay would be ~160K. How long do you think it would take for someone to pay back the 300K loan? If one is financially responsible, it would take at most 5 years to pay it back.

So by the time one becomes a full-blown doctor at age 32 (usually in the US, it only takes ~12 years to become a generalist doctor, who specializes in Internal Medicine, from the time s/he graduates from high school), s/he is making 250K. I wish I could make something like that as a programmer, but we know that that kind of salary is reserved for people who work for FAANG and/or are at the top of their game in the software field. For doctors, that is just the starting salary.

This is all to say that I disagree that the medical debt is much of a concern for US doctors once they become one. It is the unnecessarily convoluted path, which they have to take to become a doctor, that is more of the problem.

What do you mean?

I mean that if your employer is for example, a monopoly in a relatively stable-yet-poor-country, the rational vote is to always vote for the preservation of your existence (ie the preservation of your job rather than de-monopolisation of the market) and thus it’s really hard to transform the country even if the voting is inherently fair.

Are there any examples of people voting strategically and getting what they want? Because the way I see it - strategic voting is almost always a populist vote and thus is rarely rational.
A sibling comment has already posted a link to Wikipedia.

I couldn't see it mentioned immediately on Wikipedia and it kind of falls outside of the scope of that article too so I'll mention that in addition to people directly preventing crime by pulling a gun IIRC there also seems to be less attempts at crime in areas were there are lots of legal guns.

I think rayiner hints at/mentions that somewhere above.
This isn't about whether or not they get arrested. This is about certain ground rules and principles that the government must always uphold, even against unprincipled opponents.

Federal law enforcement officers, dressed in camo gear and without any identifying insignia, arresting and covering the faces of alleged rioters and stuffing them into unmarked vehicles and taking them God-knows-where is absolutely unacceptable.

These principles are what separates the government from the rioters. How are you going to hold the government accountable when you don't even know which government agency a certain police officer belongs to?
It's astounding that the HN readership has become completely captured by labour economics concerns, even to the exclusion of considering a critical shortage of critical workers DURING A PANDEMIC.

I am an Evangelical Christian. If a non-Christian were to say to me something about "The Immaculate Conception", I think it would be a tad disingenuous to just say, "We don't believe in any Immaculate Conception!" It would be more forthcoming to say, "Well, the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception is a Roman Catholic doctrine that asserts that Mary was born without sin; we Evangelicals don't believe that. We do, however, believe that Jesus Christ was born without sin."

Likewise, I think you would be more forthcoming in admitting that while LDS does not believe there are any "mystical properties" ascribed to the plates, there were indeed "mystical properties" ascribed to the glasses, the Urim and Thummim, used by Joseph Smith to translate them.

> My parents spend a lot of time daily researching "alternative therapies". It's terrible to watch it and not be able to do anything about it.

It is the ability to not let go - we don't want these things to happen. We want to have hope that something out there can save - and these emotions are abused. It makes it all the more dastardly.
I'm sure the alternative therapies have some effect. Maybe even a strong effect sometimes. Placebos are very powerful.
Andy Ngo is a well-known liar and someone that literally sat around with people from the Patriot Prayer as they were planning to assault people. Many of whom are now on felony charges for assaulting people. None of which he reported or attempted to stop. Not to mention his history of doxxing victims.
Because it's a lot of wild claims without a single link to a reputable reference.

Anyone can say anything on the internet, what reason do you have to trust anything they said is remotely true? Because it sounds science-y and you don't yet understand it? I mean, how do you even know of not just someone literally making all this up on the spot for a laugh? Why are anonymous strangers more trustworthy than anyone else?

It's all just appeals to the idea that there's some powerful, shadowy entity that doesn't want you to know this stuff, but they know the truth and you can be special too if you just listen to them. There's zero actual substance, just lots of unverifiable claims. Maybe the real conspiracy is that big pharma's medicine does work but people want to still you stuff that didn't work just to make money? Isn't simple greed a simpler explanation than some grand conspiracy?

Whatever other merchant processor you'd find would likely (1) charge higher fees (2) also implement a rolling reserve (3) kick them off if they have > 1% chargebacks so they don't risk their merchant account.

Keep in mind that the processors are not going to be able to take on more risk than the card companies allow them to. You can not easily get around this in ways that are both feasible and legal at the same time.

One trick I know of was a company that ran a large number of low risk transactions (gas station payments) right along a much lower number of very high risk transactions. This 'blending' lowered the charge back rate to the point that their traffic was acceptable, but in order to get away with this they were mislabeling those purchases, pretending that the high risk payments were also gas purchases.

This is not acceptable to the card companies, they label this transaction laundering and will shut down any merchant account associated with such a scheme.

Disco Charm: New Generation (2020)
I am quite sure the formal definition of sound is something we are all familiar with in here. I would argue that the point of the question is whether there could be sound without the conscious experience of sound. When a tree falls there is definitely displacement of air. Displacement of air though has no intrinsic quality of 'sound-ness'. Such quality can only be experienced by consciousness.
He doesn’t defend police that hurt innocent people. His video on the George Floyd death doesn’t make any excuses for the officers. Plenty of other examples where he says the cops are in the wrong.
Main reason is the lack of a holistic approach. Every Linux desktop is a loose collection of separate programs that don’t really play together in harmony. There are no Product Managers behind the distros, it would seem, or if there are, they haven’t been very effective. KDE, GNOME, Cinnamon, all of them scream, “we haven’t done user studies.”

I suspect this is a function of the distributed ownership. No one is able to manage the full stack because the complexity of doing that would be a full time job and take a team working for months to get it ready.
It's hard to get conservatives and libertarians riled up about a town that gave stand-down orders to its police force so that the local antifa chapter could enact political violence on its opponents more or less unadulterated. Even if many of its targets deserved every bit of trouble they got.

The conservatives were always hypocrites in this regard.

The Libertarians generally just don't see the point of looking out for regions where they perceive that most people would turn around and restrict their liberties the moment they were off the defensive.

Doesn't mean it's right, but everyone who cared about the powers that made this shit legal (I almost guarantee many of these poor souls will be charged with terrorism), have long since become sick of being told they're paranoid, resigned themselves to our current trajectory, and are just sitting back to watch the fireworks,
As for chargebacks, customers really win even if there are voice recordings etc?

Quite possibly, yes.

This is where all the apparently reasonable arguments about payment processors holding reserves to protect against chargebacks break down. With most payment schemes, including cards, there is absolutely nothing that requires the decision-making process for a chargeback or similar claim to be fair or evidence-based. The organisations making the decision are not independent, they are typically the bank, card issuer or other payment service that wants to keep its customer happy.

Fortunately, my own businesses have extremely low chargeback rates, but of the few we've had over the years, it has been a 50/50 shot even in almost identical circumstances whether we'll win the dispute. That remains true even when we had a mountain of evidence showing that it was a legitimate charge and the customer themselves was happy to confirm that, for example if they'd had a card stolen and duly cancelled it, and their card company had then automatically charged back all the recent transactions, including genuine recurring subscription payments like ours. In all such cases, it cost us far more for the time to collect and submit the evidence than any money we got back even if we won the dispute, so we have since adopted a default policy of not even contesting chargebacks. For low-value transactions, it costs more to fight than to just take the punishment, which tells you how one-sided the system is.

If anyone here from Stripe or any other payment service wants to argue that the reserve scheme is reasonable and necessary to protect their business, I invite them to also push for chargeback disputes to be decided independently by neutral parties, and to publish statistics on card issuers or other customer-side payment services they encounter showing how often each is a source of disputes and how often any such disputes are ruled in their customer's favour. Then at least merchants would have some chance to protect themselves against potentially abusive actors within the industry by not accepting those payments in the first place if they wish.

If payment services like Stripe still saw unusually high rates of reversed transactions under those conditions and wanted to hold a reserve accordingly, at least it could then be done on a transparently reasonable basis, instead of based on arbitrary criteria and unilateral decision-making, inevitably prompting angry articles and subsequent discussions like this. And then since it would be transparently reasonable, the merchant-side payment services would have no reason not to publish statistics on any reserves they impose as well, allowing merchants to compare payment services and move away if the one they were using was unnecessarily aggressive in this area.

Not just skills, but also buy-in.

My mother was a SAHM by social convention, but it's not what she wanted for her life. She was miserable and it effected our lives deeply. She went back to work full-time (making more than my father even after >10 years out of the labor force). My younger siblings went to a well-run up-scale daycare with professionals who were passionate about child development and had none of the self-loathing/depression of a reluctant SAHM.

Suffice it to say: I need therapy and my siblings don't.

I think the social value of the SAHM is vastly over-estimated. It's basically a "good old days" lemonade and football fallacy.
> because you have a large amount of chargebacks and that is stated in the notice.

To be clear, it just says there was an increase.

Edit: the company provides parking for people going on flights so it's very possible there was a substantial increase in refunds or chargebacks due to COVID.

That's a very good point. Lack of diversity is completely invisible if the surrounding context also lacks it.
Apologies in advance for the snark, but I find this statement equally valid:

> You write as if there is a division of work between the couple. That would be true if men and women could decide who would stay at home and who would work at a company. In fact, men are required by their society to go to work, so this is in fact a relation of oppression.

So I reject your assertion that this is a relation of oppression, unless you are conceding that both members of the relation are equally oppressed (in which case, I would argue that nobody is).
No, don’t put it in the title, just fix the page. A page being even 100MB would be wildly unacceptable, let alone 450MB.

The really quick fix is just to replace the images with links to the images. Anything fancier (like replacing them with static images and links to actual videos rather than GIFs) can come later.

Please. I’m not trying to be mean in any way, but words are failing me at just how bad this is. You just don’t do this sort of thing. Entirely genuinely, you have probably directly cost at least a dozen people a few dollars with these GIFs, and measurably (sometimes seriously) inconvenienced dozens more for up to a month due to limits reached or approached.
I didn't understand the article at all, but it did make think about about how many dimensions are required for humans to understand how objects in life relate to each other.

I counted: a point, a line, a plane, a solid, a solid at a point in time, a solid that might exist in some possible future, and a solid at a point in time that might have existed if our past had been different.

That's all I could come up with (and I'm not even sure if the last one is a dimension).

It's probably a coincidence (there's nothing crankier than numerology), but it did make me happy that it adds up to seven.
Thanks for that!

You couldn't have illustrated my point nicer. Yes it makes a sound. There will be vibrations in the air pressure propagating from the impact. If there are birds around they might take a flight. The ground vibrations will create ripples in the nearby pond which might distract a dragonfly enough that a frog swallows it whole.

There is an unremarkable planet orbiting a regular star a thousand and two light year away from us. On that planet there is a somewhat deer-like species descendant from a prey animal. They are masters of mathematics, philosophy and technology. Their cognition is so advanced that they would only politely smile at the notion that "human consciousness" is the greatest mystery of all. One of them between two ritual playfights took a dust bath on the meadow. It was thinking about the atmosphere of gas giants, when he come up with a question. There is not even a point in trying to explain to humans what the question was. We don't have the capacity to comprehend it. That question was the greatest mystery of all. Pity that they all went extinct before coming to terms with their own inability to find their answer.
Hop on a bus and go across the river; go downtown. Neighborhoods which are on the western "downtown" side of the river, but north of Burnside, are fine. Drive up MLK and you'll see nothing out of the ordinary.

> certain legal requirements, like the miranda warning

No. Many people believe that if they are arrested and not "read their rights," they can escape punishment. Not true. But if the police fail to read a suspect his or her Miranda rights, the prosecutor can't use for most purposes anything the suspect says as evidence against the suspect at trial.

> Its an extension of systemic racism in the country going back centuries, which is what the parent is referring to.

I'm not sure this is true in Utah's case, and anyway it misses the point (Utah could be white for entirely nefarious reasons and we would still expect any given colorblind institution in Utah to be similarly white).

> That said, the argument that passive participation in an unjust system is tacit approval of that system isn't so far fetched.

It's entirely possible that one is:

* unaware of the injustice

* unsure of what can be done to help

* already helping in a different capacity

* spending one's resources otherwise making the world a better place (including potentially addressing worse injustices or just trying to provide for one's family, community, workforce, etc)

* etc

This "if you're not for my pet issue, you must be against it" isn't doing anyone a service.
CS rep affinity could work they way CPU affinity works: as long as there is no reason to switch someone keep the same small set of CS reps associated with that one account. Good reasons to switch: the customer requests it, escalation, their default rep is unavailable or has left the company.

Other than that 1:1 relationship between CS reps and customers should be the norm.
