No, but it is non-transparent and can’t be edited with a text editor, without being unpacked and repacked like Fossil. Yet another layer of indirection is the last thing I want when I’m in a hurry to write down a thought before I forget it. Of course that can be overcome with practicing the tooling, but that’s also a non-negligible transition cost.
Sort of relevant. An Australian Press Council adjudication against "The Australian" newspaper:

https://www.presscouncil.org.au/document-search/adj-1783/

> The publication said the word “epidemic” is appropriate when reporting the exponential increases in those attending gender clinics and the term “social contagion” is an accepted term in social science and was taken from areas such as anorexia and suicide attempts, and where its relevance to adolescents, attitudes and behaviors is widely documented

Adjudication:

> However, the Council considers there is public interest in vigorous public debate particularly when it concerns submissions made to a parliamentary inquiry. The Council considers that to the extent there was offence and distress it was justified in the public interest.
Personally I found it can help to write down or talk about any emotions which may be present yet currently outside of your scope of perception/awareness. E.g., "based on what happened today, any random person could be excused for feeling ____ or ____."

I also found it helpful to reorient my diet toward sweets while processing emotion, foods which my body seems to "request" or crave in order to deal with situations that may pierce the lower portions of Maslow's pyramid. Like you just lost your footing on an important work project and people will be angry, or your stocks took a dive and you panic-sold, etc.

By cutting out normal / healthy foods and focusing on indulgent crisis foods first, the overall caloric expenditure can be reduced insofar as crisis foods were what you really wanted to eat, and this direct approach helps to blunt the weight-gain effect of binge eating extra sweets combined with any normal foods outside of that scope. It felt weird at first, but it worked out well, in its strangely logical way.

These are just my experiences though, and I really recommend that you keep a log and an open mind and see what you can figure out as you look into this further. I found some helpful mental models related to [0]. Good luck and good on you for raising the question.

You hate how polarized the disclosure had became, where not taking a stance is now the same as taking the stance for the opposite side.

I would say, FB did the right thing here, to not supporting a platform that actively politicizing itself.
Hosting content should not be treated the same supporting it. Plain and simple. A host should have the right to curate the (legal) content they host according to whatever rules they want, but simply hosting it alone should not be treated as tacit endorcement. Otherwise, discenting voices will be left without a platform.
What does OpenPGP bring there? At least GnuPG has the benefit of being a tool that's present on many system and which is capable of verifying signatures.

If you're not using GnuPG, you can pick any format you want! What does OpenPGP add? Everything I can think of is a negative.

Pret a Manger

1) Amazing food

2) Very nicely set up

3) Just read the blogs etc. that London women write about Pret a Manger. In their minds it's the kind of place where they can get good food and also find 'the man of their dreams'

4) very little real competition

5) most people have a decent amount of disposable income. You can eat utter rubbish at a fast food joint, or you can terrible tasting food from a convenience store, or you can eat at a good place like Pret a Manger

6) Quick

They do a lot of things right

If your target audience has money, then providing them a high quality service and pricing it higher is good

It's also a big help if the pricing ensures that only upwardly mobile people can afford it

I do respect Jeremy Parish. But as a huge Castlevania fan myself I find that list pretty surprising. Obviously there is a lot of subjectivity in something like this. But I would argue Super Castlevania is better than many of the games he put above it.

And to be totally fair, it's true SC is clunky and dated in several regards (it was a very early SNES title and it shows...) So maybe Jeremy dings it on those aspects more than others do. But I would argue it makes up for a lot of that in atmosphere, style and uniqueness.

Its always felt like a better near term way to boost around is just use massive (literally) platforms that have large installations of solar, batteries and electric thrusters. Have enough ballast that its orbit is only going to change a small amount when throwing something. Then you just keep thrusting until you are back where you were.

Electric thrusters are getting huge specific impulse improvements and the future seems to be pretty bright for them. We can trade time for efficiency essentially.

For interplanetary transit, just keep the platform running a circuit between the planet and earth. It's going to be way easier to hit your entry without getting into an unrecoverable situation.

Stripe Offers Employees $20k to Help Relocate During Pandemic
While this may be somewhat tongue in cheek, I often think of this post from Anil Dash:

"I talk to a lot of consultants, freelancers, and small businesses who do web work, and I used to be a freelancer myself, so sometimes I get asked for advice on how to price one’s goods and services.

I think I came up with my best suggestion today, and it involves only two simple steps:

Slap the client in face.

Tell the client your hourly rate.

If the person looked more shocked, horrified, offended, hurt, saddened, or wounded by the slap in the face, then you are still pricing yourself too low.

Your mileage may vary, this is not to be construed as legal advice, eye-poking may be substituted for slapping in some states."

Yea “tap to edit” is what I meant. But who knows how many past (mis)recognitions vs manual edits it takes to reform Siri.

I’d try to do it each time, hopefully won’t take too long to get it.

(On iOS 14, enable Siri - Siri Responses - Always show speech. On previous iOS, Siri is full screen and I think tap to edit is always available.)

Not sure about watch. However, I assume it should sync if you enable Siri to sync in iCloud. Settings - your name icon - iCloud - toggle Siri.

Oh? I’m in Southern Saskatchewan, about two hours away from the US border. It reliably drops to -40 here in the winter. The vast majority of us heat our homes with natural gas furnaces, driven by electric fans. Long power outages in the winter are a very very big deal, and luckily are quite rare. A few years ago we had one that lasted about 12 hours, and the indoor temperature had dropped to about 7C. If it had continued to drop, the first thing would be damaged plumbing/flooding... followed by people who don’t have a large cache of warm clothes starting to have trouble.

Seems more like Cloud Run to me. A modest amount of vendor lock-in if you're only interested in running compute workloads, and the usual ton of vendor lock-in that is inherent to any effective cloud usage if you want to go all in with IBM Cloud.

It actually impresses me so far. I've got a soft spot for IBM Cloud given that its origin is creating a public cloud out of open source projects and giving back to them. Their serverless offerings so far have been lackluster though. IBM Cloud Functions, based on Apache OpenWhisk, which they created and open-sourced, has a weird programming model.

But this seems like Cloud Run except it also has support for Docker images on any registry (not just GCR) and can run batch jobs up to 2 hours long. I'm going to keep an eye on it.
Yes. It's become a real problem. Sometimes you have to look at the references, which do have dates, to get a rough idea of when the paper was published. Or at least what date it could not have been published before.
Seems like you're making this a little bit more political than you should be.

If I work for a bank and I find out they have predatory lending (and I had the luxury of being in demand), I'd likely threaten to quit unless that was changed. We see similar things with companies all over the US and it's not usually seen as employees "bawling their eyes out and chanting mantras".

Seems that because this particular instance involves some LGBTQ folks, you assume they're just walking around crying constantly...

In reality this will happen the same way every work place dispute has happened for the last hundred years. Spotify can either tell their employees "sorry, we're keeping it as-is, you can turn your badge in if you are against this decision" or find their employees too valuable and find some middle ground with JRE.

I agree the take above was reductive, especially in truncating the historical aspects of nuclear power, so much so that in the general case it is incorrect. Collective amnesia is not a solution to yesterday’s nightmares.

I think there is hope that the new generation of nuclear scientists and companies have learned lessons, and I support giving them regulated room to prove it. America has a lot of bad energy policy (Fracking, mountaintop mining, to name a couple in addition to your comment’s nuclear perspective) - improving on that is important, but making it worse is not acceptable (Nor am I a fan of gambling with such large minimum bets).

Irrespective of my failures, the core of the original critique I think stands insofar as the argument it was responding to was not self-sustaining.

Edit: I don’t mean to age you, but I am honestly too young to remember “Too cheap to meter”. I can see where historical memory, or the lack thereof, has colored our respective perspectives, though, in important ways
Agreed. That and something catchy might be worth doing for them.

Still, it a lousy practice.

Huh? It's the worst way of preparing meat combined with the worst way of preparing vegetables, managing to destroy both flavour and texture of both. Having grown up in Britain, the memes are on point when it comes to traditional British cooking (though no reflection of the wealth of cooking that actually exists in Britain today).

Yesterday, I introduced some of my pupils — in this case, a group of ten rowdy pre-teens — to the idea of decorum and vulgarity. There’s could well be a whiff of truth to a comparison between my class of children and this story about FB employees.

It feels very old fashioned, but are we not getting a little burned out by a world where people openly nail gun their identity politics to the mast?

When I were a lad (way back in the nineties) I was taught it was rude to talk about politics, religion, or money. This applied to anywhere one was in polite company, not just at home, and definitely not at work.
Heh, yeah, I didn't realize what year it was until I got to "Mozilla’s CTO Brendan Eich" and thought "Wait—that guy? Now when was this..."

Universities exist to teach teenagers basic literacy skills, and maybe a few technical skills in the STEM degrees. They're mostly just high-school English teachers with a few more qualifications and better writing skills and more dedication (which what it really takes to get the qualifications).

It might be growing fast, but as a long-time user (since year one), its search has become less-and-less useful to me.

One could easily argue that Joe does in fact not debate many of his guest and instead allow them to use his show as a platform if they so desire.

Those individuals are still alive and loud depending on where you live.
You're completely right. I replied to the post because it mentioned nuclear but the problem is much bigger and energy consumption is only one aspect of it. We're going to need pretty much every aspect: improvements or changes in how we build and maintain infrastructure, likewise for goods, and changes in consumption patterns for at least some of the things we use and eat. We're going to have to change transportation heavily too (i.e. in Europe we should heavily focus on trains over planes for example). And of course, if we can't do all these things despite having the best research, the biggest and richest universities, the highest quality of life already etc. then why should we expect other countries to be "better" than us? (and they already are better from some angles: China is going from coal to a monstrous nuclear development about 3-4 times faster than any world power in history, and Pakistan is the only country to have exceeded its carbon goals ahead of all schedules when rich European countries like mine have asked for extensions on their failures)

I recently had a Swedish friend mentioning how his parents' country (Bangladesh) is a "mess", from a privileged position. CO2 emissions for Sweden and Bangladesh are within the same order of magnitude, despite one country having about 7 times more people than the other. Because the other one drives its economy on pretty much 7 times more energy&resources consumption. Wind won't offset that anytime soon, and Sweden is already a good player in the world of both renewables and nuclear.

One of the reasons why nuclear should pretty much be a non-debate by now is that we will still very much need oil for things that are not energy-production related until we can do better, and we'd do better than to continuous burn it off to make cars, then make them go vroom on the way to the shop, where we buy our plastic-wrapped fruit delivered from the other side of the world in the middle of winter. Inconvenient truths aren't fun, but if we don't want to have much more inconvenient ones down the road we better get used to the mildly inconvenient ones right now and actually discuss on those terms.

I've seen certified development boards also, but what most don't realize is you can't combine certified parts to make a certified product. So depending on your product there is literally no benefit to getting it certified.

There are things that are battery powered that need to be certified and things that are not kits that don't need to be, though, so I'm not sure I can agree with that wording.
Yes, I've lost a couple friends over this unfortunately.

Maybe because it's so... insidious? There are engineers at Facebook that think Facebook is protecting free speech. It's so strange.

He's also interviewed Bernie Sanders and I believe JR said he would vote for him.

Many people would consider[0] (not without zero justification) that Sanders is the most prominent USA representative of an ideology that has killed more people in the last century than any other ideology.

[0] no, I am not saying Sanders is a homicidal maniac, just in case people want to take that inference.
Curation is opinion.

Mostly, that opinion is that you should really be mad about something because that's what gets the engagement numbers to go up. That's what they choose to show you.

Media platforms are shaping us stronger than anything else. Allowing them to hold a status as unbiased when obviously not causes damage.

JRE should be able to be hosted but that's not because Spotify (or Facebook or twitter) should hold a special protected status.
Why do you care what Rogan says? With the way you describe him it’s clear you don’t like him. Don’t pay attention to him, then. The problem is people today who go against the grain are vilified by these bleeding heart outraged critics who have nothing better to do than attempt to cancel people. People are fed up with it.
