Often propositions require a new proposition to change, so 7/8ths is actually more permissive than normal.

That said, I think the proposition system is often problematic and I typically default to no. Though this time 22 and a few others seemed important enough for yes.
How Can PM Stay Focused on Important Things and Don’t Waste Their Time on Noise?
Respectfully, you're paying for a ride, not for someone to make eye contact with you while sucking your dick. And even if they do make eye contact, it doesn't actually mean that they like it. Forcing people to feign pleasure under threat of poverty may work to a certain extent, but it's harmful to social cohesion in the long run. It breeds resentment and humiliation, and it's harmful to mental health and self-esteem, and as we are already living in the most unequal time since before the civil war, it's not very safe for your corporate masters to be fanning the flames of class antagonisms.
Do you have any data to back that up? You have made claim after claim on this thread with absolutely zero references for the information. Impossible not to classify you as a shill at this point.
How convenient that there's a fictional space opera that can verify your predictions of the future.
I thought the same for years and chased that dream. Eventually I found I ended up as a miserable isolationist to some degree. So roll on a number of years and I’ve got 5 people living in a tiny house in London. I sleep, eat, work and play in one room and have done for about 10 years now. It’s great and I wouldn’t swap it for anything.

The important thing is that you find activities to do outside the house because it doesn’t matter how big your space is; you need to get away from it sometimes.

I love this. You're conflating a business model that doesn't work under a set of (possibly) onerous regulations to a failed business model. Who has it failed for? And don't say investors, because these are smart people who believe there is a path to profitability.
this is super interesting. it stands to reason that CodeDeploy would support docker crossbuild.

In my team we mandate testing docker images on local dev machines before rolling to production, so i was wondering how the cross-compiles, etc would work . But this is helpful. thanks!

A lot of game studios release a final patch removing DRM. That would have been nice.
I do have Ulcerative Colitis. The research is still out on how the Hygiene Hypothesis supports its occurrence.

Personally, I'd have liked to climb more trees and eat more dirt.
I had the same problem. An automatic upgrade rendered my previously functional app unusable. After tapping around for a minute in frustration to try to find some way to dismiss the new subscription screen I deleted the app.

I really do sympathize with the plight of indie developers on the app store but this is too much.

> It's incredibly hard for me to consider this exploitation when people are freely entering into these agreements.

But then

> they have an entire labor market of other options and they have decided that this is their best option

So obviously the problem was that the labor market was broken if the best they could find was that?

> Surely our legislature is to blame for allowing people to have such a low standard of living that they feel forced to accept such terrible jobs.

Agree, this is definitely a 2 way problem. But I think it should be attacked from both sides: Unemployment benefits, healthcare for unemployed and so on should be so good that people don't take the worst jobs. But also: employers should be forced to offer such good employments that the worst jobs simply don't exist. The end result, and a measure of success here would be a higher unemployment. Having a low single-digit unemployment isn't a mark of success.
Wow TIL: UTF-8 goes back to 1992 (!)

Which makes the mess that is UTF-16/UCS-2 even more unfortunate because its not like unicode had made all that many in-roads by that point. People were still mostly using various legacy code pages at that point. Imagine if we could have skip all the fuss over wide character encodings (i suppose there was already wide character encodings due to asian language encodings)
Excellent article! Helps me a lot as someone who has worked on consumer applications to analyse what works and what doesn't. I especially like the simple example that was presented for the signup page.

When can we expect Wordpress to upgrade to PHP 8?
Neither Windows, nor .NET, nor Java have moved away from 16-bit code units (the latter two have made concessions for strings in other encodings, either to save space or to improve speed in scenarios where UTF-16 will never appear, like HTTP headers). It's unlikely they ever will; that's a hell of a backwards-compatibility break for very little gain.
I’m not sure what you mean. I believe the problem is that battery cells wired in series will tend to discharge at slightly different rates due to slight differences in their composition from their manufacture, and that cells can be damaged when their voltage goes outside a certain minimum or maximum range, so it’s important to monitor each cell individually while discharging and charging.
I think a Magit-like interface for ffmpeg would make ffmpeg much easier to use
The hardware doesn’t really matter, does it? You clone the setup into a VM and stash it away somewhere on your massive corporate cloud and. I’m sure a very small machine could handle the minuscule amounts of activation traffic for the legacy versions.
Ooo that's interesting. I am going to check it out. What resolution btw? 1080p60? Same codec before and after?
Its not different. But its also not the reason for why their business model is unsustainable, great straw man though.

It depends on the language pairings. Take a look at Don Quixote in English and Spanish, they're very comparable at the sentence level (at least this translation). Also if course it depends on the artistic license of the translation. Maybe it's something you could do with a bit of human intervention to sync up the two texts.

> I’m not sure if gig economy workers are in exactly the same boat, but be skeptical of free market claims when it comes to labor.

Gig economy workers have the freest movement of labor possible. If they get a better job tomorrow, they just take it...they don't even have to tell Uber. That's the whole point of the "gig" in Gig Economy.
Did you use "lucky" here sarcastically, or do you actually need to be lucky with binning to be able to undervolt without issues? (I thought that was a concern with overclocking?)
I usually steer new-comers to Handbrake. That's a great starting point.
Then maybe the training data shouldn't be based only on translations?

Maybe some texts that describe a given language should also be used.

This doesn't seem an insurmountable problem.
It's pretty clear from all the rejected examples listed they're looking for specifically a one word noun (note they specifically don't mention "natural philosopher" either! Only philosopher). And it's moreover pretty clear that this is a group effort to come up with a word, not just something done by Whewell (he merely contributed the word "scientist").

Given the fact that Whewell uses the word "gentlemen" here, that other people are all doing the same task, and the fact that Whewell outright professes his reasoning for coming up with the word scientist, trying to pin this to Somerville just because the passage happens to be part of a review of her book is really really really stretching it.

As far as I can tell you're relying really really heavily on the coincidence that Whewell has an immense respect for Somerville and the fact that other people happened to use the term "man of science" to argue that he coined "scientist" after Somerville (or at the very least sow doubt in his own stated intentions). And that feels like you're taking Whewell way out of context.
Tangentially related, this pisses me off more than it should regarding the "AI" in phone keyboards. Under the hood they're barely anything better than Markov chains.

I'm almost sure autocompletion in Finnish (or Estonian or Hungarian) is borderline useless, as the chances to write a word that wasn't ever written before are quite high.

But even with more "sane" grammars these models barely work. When I write in Spanish, often there are verb forms that are missing that I have to type fully.

For example, in Spanish, all forms are on conjugation lists, but it can be tough to find a set of corpuses that covers all. I know that a 2016 Spanish Wikipedia dump I played with covered about 20% of all verb forms present in rae.es.

Then on all those forms (I'd say about 16-18 tense/mood/aspect forms are in common use) you have to take into account enclitic/affix pronouns, and the whole thing goes awry quick.

"Comámosnoslas" - If you search on Google, there are only 9 results[0], this post likely to become the 10th. But it's a completely normal word a Spanish speaker may use and will understand.

comamos ("let us eat") nos (emphasis "for ourselves") las ("them", feminine). "Let's eat them!" but with emphasis lost in translation.

E.g. usage "Hay 3 pizzas, ¡comámosnoslas!" . This sentence, funnily, is properly translated by Google Translate into English, but it tries to correct it to "comamosnos las" which is absolutely broken Spanish.

This is an interesting point. Is there a legal notion of 'perpetuality' for creative works? Would it be better if Amazon was seen as the current custodian rather than absolute owner? More like an art gallery.
The legislature could modify existing laws and override precedent set by the courts, to the extent it is not unconstitutional. And the interpretation of what is a contractor or employee has largely not been a constitutional matter, it is about interpreting the vague, silent and conflicting labor laws. The Federal labor laws almost always explicitly allow states to set stricter limits, they do not preempt state laws via supremacy
I worked there. It was a greasy and miserable place run by people who should have retired long ago. Everything was waterfall development, and there was a yearly slave-rush to their miserable convention show, where only half the stuff really worked. No one really knew what they were doing. It was like a time machine back to 20 years ago. So glad I left.
I'm not up to date on php code, but can't the first example be done using reflection? For example a SubscriberBase class which: lists all of its "on*" methods, checks if there's only one parameter, gets its type via https://www.php.net/manual/en/reflectionparameter.gettype.ph... and registers the method to receive events of that type.

From the docs it looks like it's possible in php7 and doesn't need explicit text mapping. But maybe I'm missing something?
Well, at least Windows' use of Unicode goes back to the late 1980s and back then the 16-bitness of Unicode still seemed like a sensible idea and UTF-8 definitely didn't exist yet.

I am aware but if you actually look at the comments the author is posting about being an uber driver for 5 months or more interspersed with what seem like substantive comments.
There is a very sharp distinction drawn between hard science fiction, and the less-particular, broader genre of sci-fi.

For the record, Babylon 5 was explicitly designed to be The Lord of the Rings in space. It's fantasy in sci-fi dress-up. Similar things could be said for Star Trek, Star Wars, and other sci-fi staples.

Hard science fiction like The Expanse, or most of the collected works of Arthur C Clarke, Alistair Reynolds, Kim Stanley Robinson, and Robert Forward present entirely self-consistent universes set in the future with logical extrapolations of technical capability governed by physical law.

Some people don't care for the distinction, but there are also those of us that have very strong preferences for ONLY readying hard science fiction. I like to feel that I learned something, or that the book describes societies that might someday come into being, or alien cultures that might realistically exist.
So your source of information is that you claim to have done 2000 rides? Then yes, in this case your anecdotal "evidence" is not only nonsense, but not even believable. Come back with data and we'll chat.
Don’t think they will, Serif has always worked this way, at least not unless they seriously start to threaten Adobe with a bigger market share.

Also I got 8 free updates that other companies would have asked money for. At least 2 big performance updates.

It's hard to answer that question without seeing the data. My main concern is that I want to make sure these domains which the service claims are important to protect, are actually important to protect and perhaps some reason why.

Very basic example:

I believe you are wrong that there would be no response from democrats, and that republicans might be better. Democrats will fund education traditionally, and that hasn't changed. They are the ones pushing to give federal funding support to keep state and local governments operating and reduce potential massive cuts. The republican senate is strongly against this direction; the president wants to give unemployment boosts but doesn't want to help 'blue states'. He's not too keen on education either.

I agree the situation is terrible and private colleges should be dying off rapidly.
By the way, I have just donated to this awesome project (the comments I made previously have reminded me that I had not done so...).
Many laptop power packs from before the thinness craze set in are nothing more but a couple 18650 cells and a BMS. Even the new ones are the same thing, but with pouch cells - you may or may not have to deal with smaller replacements and BMSes that permanently brick themselves when you remove the cell voltage.
That’s the big plus, it’s affordable and you own it, no more monthly pay outs.
I think you’re missing the point. Adding middleman changes nothing, because whatever that middleman could do, so can Uber itself. The argument Uber makes is that the drivers the existing arrangement is beneficial to all involved parties, and if they are required to hire drivers as employees, they won’t be able to offer as many rides as they do today with current prices, so both users will lose out on rides they are no longer able to buy, but also the drivers who now provide these rides won’t be able to. Regardless of whether this argument is any good, it is clear that adding middlemen won’t help here.
Completely a drama. I was reading 200gb or so xml files about 15 years ago in Java using their event driven xml parser, the name of which I forget. It didn’t use a whole lot of RAM or require any thought. Basically buffer 100 rows into RAM, then process and bulk insert into our SQL box. It just took time to run and most of that was waiting for the DB.

A huge chunk of businesses are based on doing exactly this and not a lot more.
I mean, permanent remote is also not great (particularly in a context where there are no offices), because for people in my living situation that puts the onus on us to find our "work" zone. I'd rather not spend extra money on more real estate or a WeWork-type membership.

I just don't find it very surprising that ~60-70% of people don't particularly like permanent remote, since it's 1. a departure from the norm and 2. people usually build their home-work separation with the commute, and I would say people expressing missing the commute separation at least some of the time represent a majority, if not a plurality, of my direct coworkers. But we are also at a company that let people do partial WFH pre-COVID.
No. I am paying for a 100 Mbps as well as a 300 Mbps connection and my usage is around 800-1.5 depending on the number of users at home. my argument is, why put the limitation? why do they decide what purpose of a home connection is? BTW, i am running one home as well as an enterprise connection with jio but enterprise connection has more cost, less speed and less data. that makes no sense other than they are forcing me to pay more for same stuff.

besides, as a home user, if i am paying maximum "THEY" are offering, why the limitation? as world has already come to realize, data caps are total bs so why enforce them even on their highest plan?
Ah you're assuming the apps will go the salaried route. My assumption is they'll do the work to classify drivers as proper contractors instead.

You're probably streaming a majority 1080 content. 5 hours × 7GB/HR @ 4k × 30 days/mo is 1050GB.

Get an xbox one with a 500gb get and actively play the new cod, pubg, fortnite, destiny 2, forza horizons 4, forza motorsport 7, halo mcc, and due to the drive limits you can blow past your cap in one rotation, per month. Add in pc gaming and a switch, and a ps5 to play with your friends on different platforms and boom 2-10tb/mo easy.

I regularly blow past 1TB without even thinking about it. 10TB/mo will probably be a good new limit until 8K tvs breach the $1k mark.
Do you have a response aside from "too ironic"?
One thing that bothers me is this section:
Most existing software follows SuperMemo in using an expanding spacing algorithm, so it’s not worth worrying about; as Mnemosyne developer Peter Bienstman says, it’s not clear the more complex algorithms really help32, and the Anki developers were concerned about the larger errors SM3+ risks attempting to be more optimal. So too here.

None of these people criticizing SuperMemo have actually used it (as far as I know, or if they did, probably a decade or two ago). I know lots of people that have switched from Anki to SuperMemo with way better rep loads. If you look at supermemo.guru and any of the writings of the creator, it's quite clear he knows what he's talking about. It would be pretty insane that over 30 years of research, he couldn't come up with a significantly better algorithm (currently sm18).

"Making minimum wage" in CA means minimum wage( for the whole time you are working, not just when you have a passenger) the employer paying a share of the taxes including unemployment, 3 days of sick leave a year if you work full time, being eligible for healthcare if you work full time(that you still have to pay for), and your employer reimbursing employer related expenses like mileage.
that's interesting; are these models used in any other capacity? Is there any other application/context where the models are being used?
What about managed k8s solutions such as EKS? Would they also be a full time job? I understand that is probably more expensive but I'm curious if it would still be pain as having your own cluster.
Sure, writing helps with thinking, but the final written output is an educational product that ought to be built and tested around the needs of the reader, not the ego or indulgence of the writer.

(It's also worth noting that the article is built on personality-specific advice, and not everyone is wired or able to think via writing. I personally love it, but a whole lot of people will only receive useful insights and clarity by talking through new ideas and issues and not via of writing about them.)
Absolutely a shill. I couldn't find anyone who supports Prop 22, even among several of my Uber/Lyft driver friends. They seem to the ones who are most opposed to it.
> So obviously the problem was that the labor market was broken if the best they could find was that?

How does this imply that it's broken? Economies at their core are systems to distribute scarce resources. It's entirely possible (bordering on likely given pandemic) that this is the best employment opportunity for many drivers.

> The end result, and a measure of success here would be a higher unemployment.

Uh, ok...right.
What do you mean by "break the https"?
It's essentially a proposition to repeal a law passed by the legislature. Obviously the legislature doesn't like it, or the original law wouldn't have passed. If it wasn't essentially unmodifiable then the legislature would just annul it via amendment. There didn't need to be a measure allowing to be amended by the legislature at all, the 7/8th requirement is just in there to allow the legislature to do non-contentious fixup changes.
