Then, the logical step should be to get the maintenance fee from guests instead of residents, instead of banning people.
Really, this is a case of the residents of Palo Alto free riding on the surrounding cities. All other public parks in the region (including those maintained by Mountain View,
Redwood City, San Francisco, etc.) are open to all, while Palo Alto restricts this park. And this is ignoring the racist history of the restriction.
Are you sure? According to Wikipedia, this land was purchased by the city from a private individual in the 1960s.

I've recommended or installed DropBox on over 200 SMBs over the last (close to a decade - I don't know how long specifically).

There are things you do great. There are some things you used to do great (or OK) but stopped. There are some not-great things. Compared to Google Drive (Which I have to use for some clients) and Microsoft One Drive (Which I have to use for some clients) and Box.com (which I have to use for some clients), I would prefer it if DropBox would simply solve for my technical and business needs (and I don't think, as an engineer, that they are that hard - I mean some of them you already did and removed).

I would love to talk. Please let me know if/how/when that could happen. If you are not interested, that is fine too. I am on the road for the next week-or-so, but just give me the sign, and I'd love to talk to you about your excellent core product.

FreeCAD is the big name, but I'd check out SolveSpace too. Then there is of course OpenSCAD which works well for the things it happens to work well for, but I wouldn't call it full replacement for a CAD. To wrap up there is the oldie and honestly bit intimidating BRL-CAD, which I'm kinda trying to learn whenever I feel like I need to do mechanical design.

Yes. Including mobile WebKit users, there are enough non-chromium users to give devs incentive to support non-chromium browsers. Take away mobile WebKit and alternative browser usage dips into single digit percentages, which is low enough for many devs to readily disregard.

It’s a bit ironic, but browser engine monopoly on iOS is the only thing standing in the way of browser engine monopoly across all platforms.
I think you may be overgeneralizing. If the speed of number crunching is the only concern, then sure, few scientists would use Python, R, or MATLAB. This is not the case in reality. Whether you would run into speed limit of course depends on the size of the problem. It's fine to use a "slow" scripting language to process a small data set on a personal laptop. And I suspect that this is what most everyday numpy users do.

Once you move to the other end of the spectrum where the size of the problem requires a supercomputer, that is when the Python ecosystem becomes clunky and painful. I think that could be an area that Julia shines in. But even that, I'm not sure if Julia is a clear winner yet, as the field is still largely dominated by C, C++, and Fortran.

Also, check ref. 56 in the article. They did cite Julia, among others.

It's strange that Nova would target web tech as their top priority, and not Swift. If you're Mac-exclusive, why not advertise top-class support for Apple ecosystem app development?

Since Nova is prioritizing web workflows, VSC is the elephant in the room and a very deadly competitor. It's free and open source, it's available on Windows, MacOS, Linux, and it can also be ported to the web. And it's Insanely popular and very high quality.

Meanwhile, all notable features Nova lists are default to VSC. One VSC feature that's been quite the remote lifesaver is shared sessions with voice chat.
Determining whether or not that statement is wrong would require data on how much litter that park has. Do you have such data?
This isn't fee for everyone, discounts for residents. It's free for residents, boot on the face for everyone. That's a serious difference.
> Borrowing material or using their online facilities requires membership, still known as "having a library card," and for that you need to live, work, or study in Toronto.

I'm surprised at that. Here in the UK you can generally get a temporary library card pretty easily (as in, walk up to the counter and fill out a form and get one there and then easy) if you don't live in the area

Where'd you find that information? It's not mentioned anywhere in the article, and Wikipedia says it was purchased by the city from a private owner[1]:

> Most of the land for the park was bought from Russel V. Lee, a founder of the Palo Alto Medical Clinic (now Palo Alto Medical Foundation), who offered, in 1958, 1,294 acres of his land at $1,000 an acre ($1.3 million total) to the city to preserve as open space.[9] The total cost was high so Palo Alto put it to a citywide vote in 1959 which passed with 62% of the voters supporting buying the land.

It's been a few years since we left, but those prices are generally for Vancouver specials because the land is more valuable than the old frame. I know PoCo has risen in price, but not near $1.5M-$2M CAD for a starter. Many friends bit the bullet and struck outward in the quest for affordability (Langley, Abbortsford) while still being within the Vancouver area.
Thanks, that's great to hear! Nice find.

The conservative talking point that the "coronavirus originated in a lab" has been conclusively shown to be false by working scientists.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/steve-bannon-linked-groups-pus...

This false idea is currently being spread by pro-Trump nonprofit groups called the Rule of Law Society and the Rule of Law Foundation, both linked to Steve Bannon, the former top Trump strategist now facing felony fraud charges.

Virologist Angela Rasmussen at Columbia University has dismissed the claims as entirely "fictional" and other health experts have noted that Fox News host Tucker Carlson has been amplifying these false claims as one of the biggest coronavirus denialist mouthpieces on television.

Presumably Palo Alto could charge some reasonable fee, connected in a way they could justify to a judge to the expenses of keeping the park up, and then offer residents a discount. But there's no "gotcha" where they can recapitulate the current policy of outright restricting nonresidents with absurdly high fees; the law doesn't work like a computer program, and a human judge will shut you down if you try to treat it like one.

Sure, but the ACLU has lots of options to open them up in other states that do allow that. Even Nevada for example doesn’t have the concept of “public easement” that CA does. You cannot get out of your canoe and walk on the beach on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe that is private.

There's a comment above that indicates tunnel brokering can't handle NAT situations (at least CGNAT).

RFC3053[0] seems to indicate this can be a problem as well:

addresses behind a NAT box.

Are you saying it works even behind a NAT?

Not to dig too deeply into a single example, but... what should they be doing? Are they employed or in school? If not, what is your expectation of what they should be doing?

I agree that if they're living with you, they should probably be doing chores, cooking, and getting some exercise in. But if they're financially constrained and have nothing to do, futzing about on the Internet and social media isn't a particularly bad use of time (even if it's also not a particularly good one).

> it's common for parking permits, libraries, and schools to be exclusively for residents

It's absolutely not common for libraries or schools to restrict _access_ to non-residents. Public libraries don't check ID at the door. School grounds have visitor access protocols these days, but those protocols have nothing to do with residency of the visitor. School _studentship_, library _borrowing_, and roadside parking are constrained finite resources and therefore extremely different from walking across a threshold, which is neither finite nor constrained.
And they aren’t pulling their weight in your home why?

There’s plenty of work to be done around the house. Turn off the internet at 11pm. They’ll either get with the program or move out ASAP.
Things every founder needs to know in 2020
Making public parks an over-policed, over-regulated, time limited and admission only "adventure park" is a uniquely American obsession.

What on earth do you think public means?
Apple asks to block iOS Unreal Engine development in new court filing
It's also useful to note that the "nuclear family" is a very Western thing, and the US takes it to an extreme. In other parts of the world it's abnormal for adults in their 20s to be living anywhere but with their parents, often even with a fiance or new spouse in the mix.

The idea that having a multi-generational household means that the younger members haven't "grown up" and need to "learn to live on their own" is a completely manufactured attitude. I think many American families would have much stronger, more healthy inter-generational relationships if we lived together (at least for a bit) as adults. As it is now, most US kids leave home just when they're starting to be able to meaningfully contribute to the household as equals.

(Having said that, I definitely feel the pull of childhood and societal expectations. When I was a new adult I was thrilled to be out of my parents' house, and could never have imagined moving back there. I'm nearly 40 now, and thinking about the possibility of living in my parents' house during my 20s still feels weird to me.)
Okay, that was useless.

Apple is in the committee.

https://www.w3.org/Consortium/Member/List
At a well-managed company that's growing properly, such as Apple was from 1998-2012, this effect is employed in a way that compensates engineers very well via the gains in stock price.

If you're a great engineer, it behooves you to see yourself as an investor in the company you end up choosing to work for.

This means learning about things like the disruptive growth era we're in, how monetary policy affects growth, etc. You should know what an inverted yield curve is, and where to look to keep up with those charts (https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/T10Y2Y).

It's important to read Clayton Christensen "The Innovator's Dilemma". I also highly recommend reading ARK Invest's research reports. They cost nothing but an email address, and I have found these all to be enormously valuable in my own research on this. If you just want to sit and watch some stuff on YouTube that can help, give "Chicken Genius Singapore", "Dave Lee on Investing", and "Solving the Money Problem" a whirl.

Great management is incredibly rare. But it's on you to learn how to identify it. If you want to be paid the most, you have to know more than just the field you specialize in! There is little value in putting your head in the sand.

>>They stay up until the wee hours of the morning watching streaming media

That is how young people keep contact with their collective culture. Do you expect them to sit in the corner reading newspapers?

Efficient time-sharing of common areas. I have to haul myself into work before 6am, but when I get a day off I sleep as long as possible. That is healthy.

>> to get on social media,

Social media is can be a career. Parents once laughed at kids who wanted to be on TV. That isn't a joke anymore. Now the want to be hot on social media. That is as valid a career choice as wanting to be an actor or pro athlete.

>>> eat dinner with us and then repeat.

They eat dinner with their parents? That is a problem? I know plenty of parents, mine included, who would love to have their kids eat at the same table.
Going for Swift means competing with XCode, which wouldn't make sense as Swift is generally used along with the entire iOS/macOS Dev tools (Simulators, UI Builders, Device Manager etc). Not a wise thing to do.

Indeed they did.

I also fondly remember how wonderful the web development deployment workflow was in Coda. This was back before source control was ubiquitous and CI/CD was required for any real production environment. It was the cleanest way I'd seen to go from saving in your test editor and having a clear path to SFTP it to the server. I half recoil in horror and am still in awe of how considered their experience was.
I'm sure you didn't mean it to, but commenting that way crosses into personal attack. Please don't do that.

Family connections are the most emotional things in our lives. It's one thing to comment on one's own experience, but quite another to step into judging someone else's. It's usually best to stick to the former, since that's almost all we're really talking about anyway.

I realize that the GP comment was provocative but we need to find other ways to react to provocation than butting heads—otherwise we just spiral into conflict.

I see some interesting things here. The bundled Git tools look really clean, I like the overall UI, it seems to already have some of my most used extensions ported over... but as someone who paid for and uses Sublime Text and finds it to be more than enough text editor for me, does anyone see something here that is worth switching for? At $99 it seems to be competing directly with ST3 ($80, fyi), not to mention the free editors VSCode and Atom.

At that price am I getting much more than the satisfying feeling of supporting Panic?
I've always been able to buy memberships at libraries in jurisdictions that I don't reside in. This goes for large cities and towns with a few thousand residents in them.
I think the key difference in all these examples you can still access all these services as a non-resident through a higher price. This effectively blocks out non-residents. The other question is can they prove that they never used state or federal funds for upkeep or the salary of that ranger?
Yes. And a numerical calculus software would probably get there faster and with less work.

Just a point of clarification: native app notifications on iOS are absolutely opt-in. If the app wants to send notifications it requires a dialogue and user confirmation.

Disappointingly, Apple makes an exception for their first party apps.
I've never seen it at city-owned libraries, but IME it's fairly common for state universities to require a student ID before entering their libraries, classroom buildings, and even sometimes before entering the campus at all.

I know universities are somewhat of a different environment, but it does point out that restricting public access to publicly-funded property isn't as wildly farfetched and unacceptable as some other comments in this thread portray.

I'm not so sure it is different. California has a unitary form of government. An incorporated city isn't a separate entity. It's a subdivision of the county which is a subdivision of the state. They're allowed to make local ordinances (which they've done here), but, in what seems to me to be a very real sense, if something is owned by a city in California, it is owned by the state. Legally I have no idea how that plays out.
I absolutely expected it.
