I agree that this is a core feature. However, the GDPR mandates that consent should be opt-in, granular (you can provide consent for your data to be used for one purpose but not another) and you can't refuse service because a user is refusing to consent to non-essential data processing (ads would fall into that).

So yes, technically you can ask the user for consent, but it has to be explicit ("we'd like to share your e-mail/phone number with our advertising partners such as Facebook, accept/decline?") and I can't imagine anyone in their right mind consenting to that.

> You've signed up for a web service and never seen ads on other sites for it ? Very strange.

I sign up for stuff only when I have no other choice for exactly this reason, and often provide fake details.

Multiphase buffering by ammonia explains wide range atmospheric aerosol acidity
I understand your position; however, the practice has shown, that this approach is good enough quality-wise. Most users didn't notice. In some aspects it is better than the approach you suggest would be, because it takes into account entire framebuffer at once. It will have less problems with pixel perfect lines, subpixel mouse cursor, etc, than the purely software solution, which will struggle with these more.

Also, it is not more resource demanding; the only cost is the bigger framebuffer. The scaling itself is free: it is done by the output encoder (that means output hardware that does the encoding for eDP/DP/HDMI; it doesn't use GPU at all for that[1]). Apple has one more trick: it doesn't offer the user zoom percentages as Windows or Linux Gnome do. You cannot do 125% on Apple hardware (that's bad corner case; you need to display 8 framebuffer pixels using 5 physical pixels AND you pay the price for @2X framebuffer). The default mentioned above (1440x900@2X) means displaying 9 pixels from framebuffer using 8 physical pixels. It doesn't compound the error at all.

We may discuss whether Windows did it correctly and Mac not, but the fact on the ground is, that all Mac apps run correctly on fractionally scaled displays and Windows apps are mixed bag. Even those apps that do support HiDPI on Windows have weird bugs (I'm not going to name & shame).

By which we are getting to another one of your points: that apps can scale their assets. Sure, they can. And as we can see, every app will do it incorrectly in it's own unique way. So when every app does that, why wouldn't system library do it for them? Any bugs you will fix in one place, and you might find a way to hardware accelerate it in a way, that the respective apps couldn't do (see above about the scaler on the output encoder).

As I wrote, this solution is good enough quality wise, is simple to implement and brings results quickly. Actually, it so so good enough, that Apple is using it in iPhones too (on some models, the physical and logical resolution do not match. The logical resolution is an integer multiple one).

Most of my experience with film was long ago, and mainly through those execrable disposable cameras my family used when I was a kid. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disposable_camera) I doubt there is a single indoor photo of me as a child with the proper white balance.

I looked up what makes an animal an animal. It turns that animals have to eat another living thing to survive. It's quite interesting that the thing that makes us animals is not the brain, limbs, heart, lungs, liver, etc.

It's having a stomach. Every animal has gotta do some sort of ingesting of another lifeform. The sea squirt seems to be the prime example, it's just a stomach. Everything else is replacable.
Agreed, but also curious: what's to stop software packages from statically linking everything? Does it require re-writing or redesigning code, or is it just a matter of flipping a compiler flag?
There are LOTS of defense companies there. You'll probably find it easier to hire and find talent when you're in a defense hub (your employees will need clearances and stuff to be able to do work for the DoD).

We understand, and it's clearly about politics. After all, taxation levels and government spending are nothing if not political.

However, you can't deny or bemoan the freedom of others to do the same as you did, and to be political in the same way.

I’ve used both json and a cutdown version of sexps (there are no types like numbers or symbols, all atoms are strings so "foo" and foo are the same sexp) a lot.

I felt like sexps were much better for humans to write as you don’t need to quote everything. Maybe this could be fixed in a json extension which allows words to be read as strings of themselves but if you extend json you lose any interoperability. Json also doesn’t have comments.

There are some arguments for or against alists/plists instead of json “dictionaries”. An obvious point is that only one of these allows for non-string keys. A weak concern I have is about using “the wrong type”, eg if you use an array you sort of imply an ordering, and an object an unordered mapping, so should you put unordered data like a set in an array or should you have a map full of null values?

In recent years, languages with tagged unions like haskell or rust have become more popular. I feel like there’s no satisfying way to write such a thing as json (relying on field names to disambiguate is only sometimes possible and feels tricky to read, having an object with a tag field or an array of [tag, value] feels unnatural. With a sexp you can just write it with a list of tag and args but because everything is lists, it doesn’t feel so unnatural.

This isn’t related to json vs sexps but having a difference between "123" and 123 in your text format kind of sucks. Either the parser will reject one or go to the trouble of parsing both or there’s a semantic difference between them which feels worse. A case it matters in json is that if your number isn’t a double you may want to put it in a string so other json reading programs don’t turn it into a double and round it to a different value.

You're getting downmodded somewhat unfairly imo. People here underestimate heavily the momentum of fads in our industry. So many technologies that the industry rallied behind fell by the wayside purely because something newer displaced it by having the energy and momentum of youth behind it. After close to three decades in the industry it becomes very obvious when and how the wind of change is blowing and what's being swept by the wayside.

Sprint made a lot of stumbles -before- Softbank. Honestly when the Acquisition happened I thought softbank was insane for doing so. IOW Sprint didn't know what to do with sprint either, I'm just glad TMO got some spectrum out of it at the end.

But, even before that, Sprint was realizing the pain of their missteps. Probably the biggest of which was WIMAX, the smaller was taking too long to get rid of IDEN.

Sprint didn't know what to do with Sprint in 2013. Even before the Acquisition they were foregoing parts of their normal maintenance and instead 'living' with problems.

The one major saving grace in all of it? The biggest reason it was still good for TMO? Sprint had a LOT of sub-1000Mhz spectrum whereas TMO had none.

And, to TMO's credit... They played the game very well. Their roaming deal from AT&T before the sprint merger completed allowed them to temporarily gloss over lot of their coverage issues until they were able to start using that spectrum for LTE (Also that nice piece of 700mhz they got from VZQ).

Targeted advertising creates a liability for me in the form of leaking which services I use to a third-party advertising partner I may have no relationship with and haven't accepted their privacy policy (the service itself doesn't know whether I use Google/Facebook and sends them the information regardless).

If advertising was targeted at the browser level (the browser has access to the entire catalog of ads out there and then does the selection locally based on sites/services I interacted with previously) then I would be in favor of that.

Finally you are omitting a third option in your comparison: how about no advertising at all? Preferring paid services over ad-supported ones and countermeasures like uBlock Origin make that a real possibility. I can't recall the last time I've seen a proper ad online (in fact my problem with the parent's idea is more about the data sharing than the ads themselves since I won't see the ads anyway).

We're talking about state taxation. I don't know how California works, but New Jersey has no concept of "capital gains". It's all income.
>I moved away from California 10+ years ago - now it seems like a lot more are doing the same thing, but bringing the same things with them that has made California less attractive.

And people who did that were the incremental change that enable the people who you think are changing it for the worse to feel like moving there and doing that is a good idea.

Sure that boutique deli that you and your neighbors keep in business (or local law you voted for, or whatever, doesn't matter what it is, just some small seemingly non-meaningful change) doesn't really matter individually but all these little things at the margin add up to a big difference.

It's like how the presence of ethnic neighborhoods furthers immigration from whatever that source country because potential migrants know they have a turnkey place to fit in (though I consider people migrating into a position to economic disadvantage to be fundamentally different than people migrating into a position of economic advantage).

I'm not picking on you. You're just one person. One person doesn't matter. It's the larger mechanism of migration that I'm trying to describe here. Basically don't blame the new migrants. People like doing what you did are why people like them moved in.
It's more than you ask for and has a significant learning curve, but Emacs' org-mode can handle that workflow. Just create a task, give it an effort estimate, clock it in, and when you reach the time you estimated, it raises a system notification.

In the agenda view, you can get it to output a clock-report in the form of a table for all the tasks you did in a given period of time. The columns are customizable with arbitrary expressions, so you can get it to tell you how well you did against your estimates in any form you want (percentage of estimate, 2 columns giving you both times, a time difference between the estimate and the time you took, etc.).

I'm using more or less the workflow outlined here:

I use priority inbox with custom queries too, so that's the missing killer feature for me. Right now I just use standard priority inbox with the four slots (starred, important+unread, unread, everything else) but multiple inbox with five sounds pretty good now that I see these queries.

Elixir's great at that stuff. I wrote a wrapper library for the specific functionality I needed, basically just building up from Plug.Conn.Query.encode/1.

Well, the first line, "gem install stripe" is a bit tough to translate into a language that doesn't have an official Stripe library :)

The issue is that the official library does things behind the scenes that the guides don't mention (such as setting up headers, tokens for webhooks, etc).
Not being able to up/downvote comments was a major turn off. They'd throw whooping 5 voting credits in your direction every few weeks, but that only served to antagonize people even more. They tried to fix that by giving away meta-mod rights (to let you decide if other people's up/downvoting were fair), but again that wasn't what was needed. So as soon as HN had enough momentum and started to become a viable alternative people left in droves. It was a true exodus. Not really sure who stayed there...

If I understand correctly, DAB+ transmitters use less power than FM ones, but DAB+ receivers use more power than FM receivers. Considering the number of receivers versus transmitters, this doesn't appear to be a good trade-off to me.

AM even more so, although AM transmitters can be really power-hungry if you want to cover an entire country with one of them.
We have a 50% kind of deal so holidays aren't a major problem although I was told not to take the children overseas. Not a problem this year! I've enjoyed a week in Wales this year and a week in Scotland last year. Can be a bit awkward just with the 3 of us as their mum has a bigger extended family but we still enjoyed ourselves.

I get that a bit. I'm often the only dad in the playground with a sea of mums and a few have said they'd love to have time to themselves. It's important, I think that's why I'm single but I'm not sure. I think it's just important to relate to people equally on a gut level and be kind when you can. It would be nice to have sympathy sometimes but it doesn't really help that much. Things are good right now, but they could easily be better or worse!

If it didn't obey Zipf's Law, we could safely conclude it wasn't in an unencrypted language, but you can't make the reverse inference, as lots of phenomena obey Zipf's Law which are nothing to do with language.

It depends upon the assembly language. Intel defines its opcodes as `dest,src` and Motorola did `src,dest`.
I get that my solution is a little more expensive. But, actually the whole thing costs ~$25, not $40, if you buy the three components thriftly (used Pi ~$15, usb audio adapter $5, mcp4725 $5).

In contrast, that link you mentioned has over 15 parts instead of 3 parts, and it needs to be on a PCB/breadboard. The total cost is cheaper (probably $10 if your thrifty) but requires way more effort IMO than using a Pi.

Crucially, I've never seen any MIDI to CV that provides a method for automatic tuning which is very time consuming. Using a Pi provides that easily and automatically with sox.
That's the thing. You and I seem to agree that the answers above are that the second cases are all better, possibly obviously better. If you choose different figures in the questions, I can find cases that would be concerning to me, even if everyone appears mathematically better off. (If the median incomes were $500,000 and $45,000 for example.)

Even with the figures I chose, I bet there are people who would wish for them to be "more equal" even at the expense of lower numbers for both groups.

I think that makes it a genuine question, even though the answer is fairly obvious to me at those levels.

Truss | Federal Acquisition Strategy Specialist, Delivery Manager (government - project manager) | DISTRIBUTED, anywhere in the U.S.| https://truss.works

More roles expected to open on 9/11!

Truss solves complex technical problems for the private sector and government. We helped rebuild Healthcare.gov after its public failure in 2013. We seek the highest standard both in terms of the technology we build, and the way we run our company. We'd love to chat with you.

We are a software consultancy known for pragmatism, autonomy, expertise, and trust. We build strong relationships with our clients, contractors, and employees and we believe that this is fundamental to doing great work. As a Truss engineer you will facilitate bringing Truss values (https://truss.works/values/) to those truly trying to make a difference in our government, and enable them to understand what their citizens actually need rather than implementing a perceived solution.

Here are some of the things we care about:
* Great communication! Including thoughtful listening skills, the ability to express complex ideas clearly and succinctly, and the ability to communicate well in writing
* The ability to deal well with ambiguity and act with autonomy
* Technology-agnostic and pragmatic engineering sensibility, focused on solving key problems for the customer, not the tools

For engineering roles:
* proficiency in at least one commonly used programming language, such as Python, Ruby, Go, Javascript, Java, etc.
* Experience deploying at least one application that other people use
* Have held at least one engineering position post-education
* Initiative, curiosity, a bias for action, and a problem-solving attitude

I work with radio, and I'm not sure how exactly you are "eliminating" path loss on any sort of real world link, even ones fixed in position. Even very high gain antennas and very small wavelengths are going to spread the energy out to some degree over any non-trivial distance (most links I work on are 10km+, so maybe your definition of non-trivial distances are different than mine).
