These navigating skills are something you typically develop when either navigating yourself or using a static/printed map. You learn how things are relatively positioned to one another and spatial relations, relative directions, absolute directions and so forth. These are sometimes referred to as 'cognitive artifacts' -- skills you've developed or inherited from some device where the information/knowledge and techniques somewhat been embedded in the system and your brain sort of develops these as base skills. Those devices often instill many years of knowledge and evolved over time give you the best ways of navigating yourself, from generations of other navigators.

When you use a modern GPS navigation system does all of these processes for you (albeit a bit differently because computer mapping typically navigates a bit differently than your brain would navigate). I now have literal verbal directions when I should turn left. I have no idea what's around me or what I should expect to see in terms of global landmarks or reference points. I rarely even pay attention to the position of the sun. I have no relative or absolute orientations I'm keeping track of, I only have decision points on a network where something tells me which branch to take when I come upon it--highly localized. Much of the useful cognitive artifacts from a standard map are completely lost in these contexts. You never needed to develop the skills and therefor never did.

Is it legal though? As a salary paid employee you're a legal representative of the company, you're covered by indemnity and liability protections by law.

If you work for two companies in a salaried position, then you're potentially violating the law there.

If you're a hourly employee and you claim the same hour for two employers, You're potentially committing fraud.

Where do you see that in the article? What I see is a call to basic understanding of the current state of the world and how it got there as a prerequisite to being able to propose changes in a sane way. They are not saying the current state is "inherently natural" (and it's not, any more than the state of northern Europe in 1350 was "inherently natural") or "unavoidable" (it has clearly been avoided in the past, and will likely be in the future, which will likely look upon the way we live in ways similar to the ways we look at 1350 northern Europe).

Aren't these criminals providing a useful service to society?

Corporations (and the governments that are supposed to set and enforce standards) are clearly failing to protect the data that is collected about people. These criminals are increasing the incentive for corporate data security.

The Equifax case is a good example of the problem. They leaked data on lots of Americans, who never agreed to their data being collected, they externalized an enormous amount of damage they created, and they are still in business. Government is clearly failing here.

I feel safer knowing that there are people out there, hunting down these unsecured caches of data.

Why would they care at all? If he's full-time on both, then he's having the taxes deducted from his wages. In fact, he'll get a refund at the end of the year because he's overpaying FICA (6% up to $110k on both jobs, when his maximum contribution should just be 6% up to $110k (not exact numbers)).

If he's a contractor, then he has to pay estimated taxes on both jobs, just like someone would with 1 job.

In either case, as long as he does proper accounting like anyone with 1 job would need to, he'll be fine in the IRS's eyes.
Refcounting needs a mechanism for cycle breaking, or it's necessarily leaky. This isn't the worst of both worlds; it's simply a consequence of refcounting.

The same issue occurs in c++ if you're sloppy with shared_ptr. If you know what you're doing, you can break cycles with weak references in either language. Where Python has diapers, c++ has footguns aplenty.

I mean you can expect whatever you want. what I'm saying is the beautiful past where all USB cables were perfectly interchangeable never existed. in the last generation we had power-only cables, data-only (although this is out of spec, I believe), and various out of spec fast charging implementations. if you pick up a random usb charging block and micro-usb cable, there was never any guarantee that it would transfer data to your phone, fast charge it, or even charge it at all.

Well if you've accrued but not spent, we can say that you helped to save the airline industry :)
> "Frequent flyer" programs started as an under-the-table way to bribe corporate flyers to take one airline over another: that is, you tell your employer you want to fly Delta, your employer books you on Delta, you get a kickback.

This is a little bit more complicated.

Part of the reason that airlines used to award miles based on distance flown and not on how much you spend is that they weren't trying to incentivize business travelers.

For most business travelers, the company usually has a corporate contract requiring employees (or strongly incentivizing them) to fly on a given carrier. Otherwise, business travelers will book according to schedule (non-stop vs connecting, timing). Business travelers are also often "hub captives" -- if you're in Atlanta, you're taking Delta. As such, they often don't have discretion, so it doesn't make sense to pay incentives to a group who has no choice but to use your product.

For paid luxury travelers, they're going to be picking based on product.

The expensive fare flyers aren't going to be incentivized to the same extent as the low fares flyers by frequent flier programs. These high fare flyers pretty much pay for the flight.

So what was the deal with frequent flier programs? Once the flight is paid for, any incremental passenger you can get into the back of the bus is pure profit, and they're the most likely to engage with your ancillary products like paying to check a bag, buying food, and buying alcohol.

Historically, the idea was to convince a leisure traveler to take a 1-stop American flight instead of the non-stop on United because of the AAdvantage credit card.

Prior to the pandemic, however, load factors were so high, airlines found they didn't need to incentivize people to fly, so they decimated the value of their programs, and started awarding miles based on amount spent, and capped it per ticket. This was a large net reduction in amount of miles awarded.
The truth is that I don't "play" anything on purpose.

I haven't yet reached the technical level to be able to offer something concrete and complete.

Today, the idea was more to do a test post on HN (which is good since I learned that the pages to collect emails are forbidden) and to receive feedback on the technical part.

I bought a set of cables positively reviewed by Benson Leung for my new phone, and they worked fine.

Recently I bought a new laptop and it doesn't charge with it, or any other USB cable in my place, except the one it came with, which is too short, and only ends in USB-C so I can't use it with any other power adapter I own. I don't know why it doesn't charge with any other cable.

If not even Benson Leung's recommended cable works, what then?

This is the frustration. All USB-C cables should have some bare minimum features that all of them supply, and be clearer about which ones have which features. Labeling it all the same USB-C leads to the frustration so many people are talking about.
What's your list?

Actively harassing people trapped in a crowded room with no way to exit is pretty serious.

If you did what the airline does with the ads, you'd be kicked off the plane and arrested.

Same, USB-C is one of those things that for me just works.

I buy USB-PD chargers and cables from reputable brands, and everything just charges. When I use the cables for data transfer, it just works -- no muss or fuss like there were with some of the charge-only converter cables for charging micro-USB devices.

Now if I were using Thunderbolt 3, yeah, you need a higher-end cable and there are restrictions on cable length for speed purposes (or moving up to a more expensive active cable). But I think that's a fair trade-off for being able to use that same cable for everything else as well.

We cannot WAIT until our household says goodbye to the last couple devices with legacy ports and we can throw the last few converter dongles in a drawer. Looking at you, Apple and Amazon Kindle -- when are you going to get with the program and ditch your legacy Lightning and micro-USB ports respectively?
Decades ago, when I started hearing bad statistics that emphasized 'within 50 miles of home', I always thought that it was saying multi-hour roadtrips were automatically safer.
I've been doing this for 2 years, except I have 3 positions not two.

Also all 3 pay really well, but they are all small companies (less than 20 employees). All three are distributed teams with no offices.

I learned a long time ago when I was assigned a task, if I concentrated I could get my days work done in 2/3 hours, sometimes less. If it was a large task that was supposed to take a month, I could do it in two weeks.

I dont believe this is because Im special in any way, I just think people slack off and generally lose too much time at work.

Obviously I didn't start with 3, I had 1 and noticed I had a lot of downtime and applied and was selected for a second job. At first I was very nervous I had taken on too much, but after a few weeks it became clear I could finish both in about 6 hours a day.

I then added the third, and usually I can finish everything in 8/9 hours. Ive gotten into trouble a few times where things piled up and I had to work all through the weekend, but its rare.

Its also happened where I finish all my works' week by Wednesday and have Thursday and Friday pretty much off.

I dont get into trouble with meetings because all 3 jobs dont have that many (1 or 2 per week) and since the teams are distributed theres always some room for scheduling effectively.

At one point I even got a 4th job, that immediately was too much and I resigned after a week.

Final note, I see nothing immoral about this. I want to make money and keep busy, if I end up paying the price by pulling some all nighters or long weekends I accept that, and have done it.

In all three positions I get positive reviews and even raises.

I think that's actually excellent. It shows that any kind of data collection is subject to the GDPR. This is something I've been warning companies about for a while now, they believe - quite erroneously - that as long as the system isn't automated that they are free and clear but the GDPR doesn't say anything about automation. So even if it is informal and even if you use stone tablets you are still subject to the law.
Correct. There are a lot of college students and adults with irregular employment that would have been rounded up and sent to jail otherwise. I worked simultaneously for three different employers in my late teens/early twenties including a part time job working for my city government. No one, especially the IRS, blinked an eye because this is 100% normal.

Now if you’re in an at will employment job then the employer can just fire you if they don’t like what you’re doing, but the same is true if they woke up cranky on a Tuesday. If you read your offer letter they make it sound like some sort of law from on high that lets them do this but it’s just a basic principle of employment in an At-Will arrangement.
If that were true we wouldn't have 30-50% of a lot of long haul planes reserved for business class
I'm not sure how rare they are.

And it really depends on the surveillance vector.

For example, I'm not worried about the government having records, via a subpoena, but I don't want customers, merchants, random blockchain sleuths and pencil pushers having any usable information.

As such, I often trade with OTC desks. OTC desks have reportedly had more volume than deposit/withdrawal-based exchanges for years. This is not a "lit" market, it is the opposite.

When I trade with an OTC desk, they give me a new address, and they send me the other crypto I asked for at an agreed upon price. OTC desk addresses are not giant labelled hot/cold exchange wallets that everyone watches on a block explorer. So when you are following a transaction on chain, lets say it was bitcoin you felt was stolen because thats a circumstance where people watch the transactions, you and others would assume that the transfers to new addresses are all the thief attempting to hide their tracks, and then everyone waits until some of that bitcoin is transferred to a known exchange wallet to then notify the exchange, hoping to freeze the assets as well as identify a KYC'd user. What nobody knows is that the actual bitcoin changed ownership amongst distinct humans 10 addresses ago. The "thief" being followed already received a completely different cryptocurrency from the OTC desk, ages ago and there is no way of knowing that. If the person actually committed a crime, then in this model the OTC desk has records if anyone identifies the OTC desk instead of simply inconveniencing or framing the person that received tainted bitcoin to their KYC'd account.

I wouldn't be surprised if the wrong people are getting inconvenienced or even charged with their tainted cryptocurrencies more often. Don't use surveillance coins.

I often transfer digital assets to Monero for any reason, and then when I want fiat I sell the Monero to an OTC desk.

Or if the amounts are too small (OTC desk minimums are often $100,000), I convert the Monero to another large cryptocurrency and cash that out on an exchange.
No matter what some claim, 99.999% of people will buy the cheapest ticket possible.

This is definitely not the case, otherwise airlines like Delta, United, and American wouldn't be in business.

Business travel is the money making industry for airlines, with leisure travel being lagniappe revenue. Business travelers book tickets based on convenience of schedule over everything else. Loyalty programs direct that purchase to a specific airline. That is a proven fact and factually dismisses your claim that "99.999% purchase" based on cost.

I mean, this certainly violates the employment contract of both Facebook and Google. I've seen only one of those, but I can't imagine the other doesn't have a non-compete against working for a competitor while employed (which is at least potentially enforcable in California).

You might be able to negotiate that away, if you really tried.

But breaching a contract isn't illegal. There's no tax issues, the IRS and the FTB don't care how many employers you have. Without due care, withholding will be off more than normal, but both employers will withhold for employee social security, and assuming combined wages are over the contribution limit, there will be a refund of overcontributions. Having two employers in one year makes it possible to overcontribute to 401k, but that's managable.
I will leave Apple products out of the equation, because I think they're a mess in terms of changing ports with every generation. Maybe that's what the OP is worried about.

USB-C has really simplified a lot of things:
- Which way do I plug in? Any way.
- Can I charge my new Ultrabook laptop with the same cable as my phone? Most certainly.
- Is the port easy to recognize? Yes, just give it a quick look
- Forget the Micro USB from now on? Yes

I'd say we're still at 70% along the transition, but compared to other solutions the C is way better and more convenient.
