I suspect that in a few years it will not matter.

Google has enough might to fix this and nobody could compete.

All google needs is to have sites talk via a backend connection to google - no adblocker could fix that - and it could train AI backend supercookies based on your behavior. You could be indentified at key points and it could pick you vs your spouse or kids all on the same ip address all contacting multiple sites and know it is you.

Current CDNs already do some of this backend tracking. People think that CDNs are about caching content for faster load times.

What is actually happening is that they are individually identifying people in an unblockable unstoppable way across multiple sites and compiling data on the backend.

Seriously, look at any cdn request. Maybe stack overflow maybe steam. anything with edgecast or akamai* (especially akamaihd) or fastly or more. you are being identified and tracked. google could take this all the way where others couldn't.

> A trend I observed here among college students is buying clothes for a party or instagram selfie and then returning it.

Ok, yeah, so buying something and finding a creative way to hide the tag so you can wear it to a single event and then return it is common enough that it's a decades-old TV/movie trope, but... buying something just to take a selfie for Instagram and then return it? What has the world come to...
Why can't my Android device with OTG & fancy SoCs act like a UVC webcam!
I think authors of advice like this underestimate the amount of exhaustion a lot of people have to cope with. I set out with the intention of getting into the habit of being creative instead of consuming only to realize I Was putting myself under more pressure.

I have to say though that simply doodling on a Synth and enjoying the sounds, playing an instrument without trying to make a song, can be very relaxing and satisfying. Especially when you are a beginner at it. Otherwise you might be trying too hard to create something meaningful, destroying the pleasure in the process.

So my advice would be not to attempt to create, but to simply indulge in the act and enjoy the flow.
Moreover, the site could be legitimate and ship you something legitimate, but if it's truncated for any reason it could still be a "valid" bash script that now does incorrect things. Consider various prefixes of `rm -rf /tmp/thisscript.working/...`

This isn't an Arch problem, it's a Gnome problem. Extensions break all the time because in order to do anything non-trivial they must use "undocumented" APIs (well, there's no documentation anyway, just a hello world tutorial and then may the source be with you). I know it because I wrote my own extension [1] in order to make this desktop bearable.

After a while, though, I switched to KDE and life's good again.

Part of the problem is large GMO crop monocultures. Growing such massive yields so densely consumes so much water in a relatively small area, such that the natural water cycle simply can’t keep up and replenish it. A more diverse and lower yield farming practice would not have the same environmental impact. And at some level it comes back to having too many humans (mouths to feed).
How does forums or subreddit like WSB work for stock advice? At-least on TV, the advisors would disclose whether they hold positions or did they advice their clients for the same stocks since they have a reputation to protect; In public forums won't everyone just advice based on their vested interest?

Are these forums large enough for the 'law of large numbers' to do its thing and that's what these analysts are looking for?
If the restocking fee accurately represents the cost to the store to repackage it and put it back out on the floor, and probably lower its price -- perhaps with a little left over -- then I think everyone comes out ok here. The returner gets to "rent" a TV for a weekend, and the retailer gets to pocket a little money for allowing the "rental" to happen, while covering the cost to resell the TV.
At this point in time, I would put surveillance states on that list of “bad actors”.
I think it is a similar situation to the people advising to have side-hustles and hone your skills in your free time. It’s great if that’s your thing. But it is not for everybody, and nobody should feel obligated.
Revelation 4:8, NIV: "Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under its wings. Day and night they never stop saying: ''Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty,' who was, and is, and is to come.'"
> The concept is the bedrock of many religions anyway. It’s something that a lot of people want.

This is exactly the reason communist systems have to destroy religion and replace it with the state. Because if people realise they're not being watched over by some all powerful benevolent entity, and that it is just a bunch of other (self-interested) people, they lose "the faith" pretty quickly.
I found the OOP chapter to be very questionable and against industry practice. Even for simple software you don't want to clobber rendering and collision detection together into the same object. The algorithms also naturally become O(n^2) and it's not possible to fix that without major rewrites, undoing the OOP. OOP is notoriously bad for CD. I'd suggest a simple data oriented design approach here, e.g. pushing collisions into a new container instead of setting flags in some object that the rendering code then uses.
As much as I hate it, I think this battle is already lost. Be it a social media company like Facebook or a computing devices company like Apple. They are going to kowtow to the wishes of the state to earn their profits.

Also, I don't think it is just the state. There is no way to know if they are in majority but I am sure many people also buy into this argument. If you argue for encryption and antonymity, I am sure someone will bring up one of the four horses of infocalypse.
JS on server-side can be taxing. If I don't use NodeJS, then I'd have to (1) call it from a script, eating the startup time (2) run a daemon of NodeJS workers running in parallel to my web server or (3) use an "embedded" JS engine, hoping I don't run into compatibility issues. All three options have performance costs + adds more dependencies.

If KaTeX were written in C, for example, it would be no problem FFI'ing it into just about any language. Plus whatever perf benefits there are of not using JS.
I’ve found that sub to be 99% idiots, 1% extremely knowledgeable finance experts who browse it to occasionally comment and laugh at the other 99%. It’s my absolute favorite subreddit to read. I consider it like an apolitical temperature gauge on things. There’s not really any politics in there, but it gets the commentary of the news through the lens of money and it’s always interesting.
Google can still pay for being the preferred search provider. Just without influence on the rest of the project / automatic login to Google services / telemetry reporting.
From the employee handbook of a Polish law firm [1]:

> Generally, an employee cannot refuse to work overtime, because it is part of the employee’s duties. The PLC
imposes the obligation on the employee to work conscientiously and to follow the directions of superiors on
how to work, unless they are contrary to law, or the contract of employment. Legal writers and case-law of the
Polish Supreme Court opine overtime can only be refused when the overtime limit on hours has been exceeded.

Crypto – Sentivate is going to make Ethereum obsolete within 5 years
This project is still flying under many people's radars, though it has experienced solid growth in the past few months.

Sentivate is producing what Ethereum failed to create - a hybrid web that merges aspects of both the decentralized web and centralized web together, so that all of the resources of both ecosystems will be available to developers on the platform and thus, users.

It is a full, complete "internet" being built from scratch with its own version of DNS, HTTP (it will be called UDSP), and more. The ability to produce hApps (hybrid apps) will be far superior to ETH's current system because they can incorporate centralized components when needed to do some of the "heavy lifting" of the hApp, while keeping it sufficiently decentralized by allowing users to control their own addresses/keys, vote for governance, etc.

The site is sentivate.com, the price per token of SNTVT right now is $0.005, and the market cap is $14,300,000. Compare this to its competitors like TRX, ETH, EOS, and ADA, and it could easily 50x in value over the next year or two, if successful. The Telegram is pretty active btw for those who are interested: https://t.me/sentivate

Why do you find it hard to blame Google (the business behind Chrome) for making a business decision of pushing for Chrome installation? This is a straightforward relationship.

From Chad, A case study on why you shouldn’t blindly trust tech
Well of course. No matter whether a large group of people act in a certain way on the stock market for good or bad reasons, it behooves actual professionals to be informed. So if a single source of information moves the market in one way, whether based on actual insights or just good old fashioned self serving "I bought at X, let's influence others so the value goes up" tactics, people in the business should know.

It's like being amazed that tech people all seemingly go to a message board run by a single venture capital firm to congregate, even if the number of users who have an actual business agreement with said firm is essentially a rounding error of the total.
[0] The social-economic environment and the political consensus behind healthcare, were both contentious in the US pre covid-19 (and arguably globally as well). This has been the case for decades despite changes in the effectively two-party system at various levels of government, and contentiousness has only increased during this time.

[1] With the current variability in the approaches to covid-19 in the world, and without a vaccine that can make it so that those most at risk can not catch it (or the various strands) ever again (assuming that they choose to take one if available with possible trade-offs in mind), I find it very hard to believe that the measures to mitigate the downside risks to spread/death will some how improve anything in regards to [0], and only serve to accelerate/decelerate various socioeconomic trends that were already under way.

Good luck to my fellow citizens stateside, I long ago made my choice in regards to [0] (now in a jurisdiction where the government's ability to enforce anything has always been extremely limited compared to a lot of "first-world" countries) which was going always going to resolve itself one way or another and I didn't want to be around to face the extreme downsides of such.
Agreed, although I’ve found that some of this pressure is due to the incredible amount of momentum towards consumption you have to overcome when trying to become a creator.

When I’m out of my writing habit, sitting down and getting something out is a huge chore. My brain constantly wants to pick up my phone, check my email, read the news, etc. But once I’ve spent a few days limiting that impulse, I feel like the chains are off and I’m able to just sit down and write.

Last year I participated in Nanowrimo, and it was insane how quickly the words came after the first five days. I highly recommend it to anyone who has felt similar friction in their creative practice.
I have to disagree. Please don't write for the sake of writing. Only write if you love writing or have some ideas to share , don't worry about amount of readers.

I see many writing because of "others are writing " often end up with not so good work(articles/blogs).

Briefly to summarize, Write only if you have something shareable information or you love writing. Don't write because someone told you that Writing is Very good idea. Then you end up with something people won't like to read.
My memory told me Cameroon world cup teams have beautiful green jerseys and a google search confirmed that to be true.
evolution itself does evolve. Eusociality or sexual dimorphism, group dynamics and all kinds of complex phenomena obviously weren't present in the primordial soup but are pathways themselves carved out by evolution.

Rate of mutations may change, new mechanisms of evolution may turn up, humans ironically by understanding our genome have acquired the ability to manipulate it in intelligent fashion, and so on.

> Downvoting and brigading don’t change them.

Just to be clear, I did not downvote, nor brigade.

> No, it doesn’t. You’re cherry-picking old data, and ignoring the links I gave you, which tell you the updated numbers:

I think you may not have understood the numbers in your link.

> ages 0-19: .003%
ages 20-49: .02%
ages 50-69: .5%
ages 70+: 5.4%

Calculate the overall IFR from these numbers given the age breakdown of the population of the US, and you'll end up a bit above 0.6%, which is what I said (when referencing 0.65%). Your link explicitly confirms what I said.

> The old reported numbers in New York are not a counterargument: we now know that number of cases was drastically under-counted, and the inferred IFR, if you use the right denominator, was a fraction of a percent.

You misunderstood this. When I referred to NYC boroughs and countries, I was referring to population fatality rates. Those are independent of case rates - it's a measure of what percentage of the entire population of an area has died, independent of infection spread. They help set baselines.

> You clearly know this, because you’re trying to talk about the rates in “boroughs” which are higher. But sample heterogeneity matters: I’m sure if you compute the IFR in Maimonedes ICU, it’s really high, too. The fact is, the fatality rate estimated by the Santa Clara study has been shown to be correct, and you’re simply spreading misinformation, because these new facts aren’t as scary.

That's fine. We can look at entire states. 0.18% of the entire population of New Jersey has died from Covid. 0.17% of the entire population of New York has died from Covid. And does anyone think nearly the entire population of NJ or NY has been infected already? No. Even in NYC, we've only seen a couple of boroughs that have shown around 50% antibody positives, with most in the 20-30% range. And, of course, incidence rates in the rest of New York state are lower than NYC. What does this mean? With 0.17% of the entire population of NY state dead from Covid, with incidence rates generally at 1/5 to 1/3 of NYC, with incidence rates lower in NY outside of NYC, the implied IFR for NY state is north of 0.5%.

With all that said.. you sourced a CDC resource that puts the IFR of Covid-19 above 0.6%. You used it to support a claim of Covid having a similar IFR to flu. Given that your source actually confirmed the IFR I mentioned, does that change your stance?
Fun fact my first accounting job we had to use pencils so we could erase and change the figures if we ever got audited.

I write, not because I love writing, but I think I have thinks (edit: this is a typo, but not one I can bring myself to kill) I want other people to know. Actually, often these are things that I have said in piecemeal many times in other places and it can be remarkably useful to just sit down and force myself into the constraint of “ok, I need to get these all together in a coherent thought that someone else will want to read”. It’s often a pretty painful experience, to be honest, but I have found it can be really helpful in getting to “what really is my opinion on this thing? Why do I want to talk about it so much? How can I distill it into something that others can understand? What parts can I support with evidence? Which parts don’t really make sense anymore?”
Downers are out in force on this one.
I’m sure I recall seeing a graph showing the development of a programmer over time, showing how their code starts out as simple but scarcely readable, gradually gets better but then descends for a period into excessive abstraction and unreadability as they learn new and exciting aspects of the language and can’t resist the temptation to show-off this abstruse knowledge. Before climbing back into simple elegance and understandability as their self-confidence and assurance in the language gradually subsumes the need to be ‘clever’ and gnostic in their coding.

I’m amused the author chose Shakespeare as an example of ‘difficult’ writing. Shakespeare is eminently readable at all levels: his skill was precisely that his compelling stories can be read for their exciting narrative by anyone, and equally can be mined for deeper meaning by those that are interested in unraveling his layers of metaphor and symbolism.
Last time I hooked up my 5d3 to Teams I saw a nice capture but the other participants saw something that appeared like a 5kib/s 320p feed. When I switched back to the internal webcam the picture was 720p so it wasn’t my connection. Any ideas on this? (macOS, ODS, cam twist, and 5d3 over usb.)
There is some truth in this, but there is a flip side that kills a lot of projects, careers and companies. Sales people don't like to talk about it, it clashes badly with the "fake it till you make it", "always be closing" and "I want to get my commission" ethos that drives sales people and teams. But it is very real and very important.

If you get the wrong customers unnaturally far up your filter you will burn your budget trying to do conversions that can never, ever really happen.

Everyone is happy - you have interested new big customers. They may even buy a taste.

They want what you have sold them.

They think you understand their needs - and you do.

But your product won't meet them.

Eventually they realise this, they are then gone and they won't come back because now not only do they know your stuff doesn't really help, but they don't trust a word that comes out of your mouths.

As far as sales are concerned this is somewhere between a natural disaster and the engineering teams fault. There may even be some truth in the later but - perhaps the product could have been pivoted and focused on what the customer really wanted - but while ppt decks can be changed and honed every 3 hours software products have a hellva more inertia, and it's all too late now.

Meanwhile the clock is ticking.

Your sales must cleave true to the reality of what you can deliver, you must feed information back into engineering and delivery, but if the customers aren't buying what you can deliver find new customers.

The exception is obviously if you are looking to convince investors that you are for real and getting some interest will open you for more funding - but that's also fraught with problems too as every ful kno.
