Fines are probably harder to deliberately mislabel as capex, and therefore less likely to get approved by the CPUC to be passed on to ratepayers. That said, I think these proposed fines are silly. PG&E did actually try really hard to get the word out, burying folks under a mountain of mailers and text messages and social media posts and advertising.

Pointing to medical baseline customers as some ultra-vulnerable population and claiming that PG&E has extra responsibility to keep their power on feels disingenuous. Those are precisely the users who should be most keenly aware of their uptime requirements and have their own backups provisioned.

It felt weird writing that. It makes me sound like a PG&E apologist. Changing focus...

PG&E has optimized its business to reduce transparency and accountability, while also engaging in creative accounting to drive up costs and improve their take under a cost-plus model. Read the Camp Fire report (it's well-written and engaging) to get a better picture of the firm and its habits: https://www.buttecounty.net/Portals/30/CFReport/PGE-THE-CAMP...

(As an aside, reading that report, it's clear that Californians surely share some of the blame here. Overzealous conservationist regulation has made it unnecessarily difficult to do infrastructure maintenance. You can't do work in one season because the weather makes it dangerous or you're not allowed downtime. You can't do work in the other season because there's nesting birds on your poles. Or you can't cut down that protected heritage tree. And things like CEQA make building new unreasonably difficult, so you have to live with what you've got.)

Prior to 2014, the CPUC was run by a dude soliciting bribes from those he regulated. So it's not surprising that the organization isn't doing a great job of putting consumer interests first. Corporate culture flows from the top: https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/CPUC-head-Michael-Pee...

PG&E has taken all of us for a ride, and has managed to do it despite a huge degree of regulatory oversight. We pay some of the highest rates for electricity in the United States, through some of the most complicated rate plans, and still don't manage to keep the lights on or avoid setting fires. And the rate of price increases make healthcare and higher education almost look sensible. See slide 28: https://www.cpuc.ca.gov/uploadedFiles/CPUCWebsite/Content/Ne...

Oh wow that saying brings back memories. All this time I thought my store manager had invented it.

McDonalds for me was pretty fun. At the time I could well see how the ease of promotion trapped some people. If you had any motivation at all you'd soon find yourself running a night shift.

Even now, a decade later, I get nightmeres where I'm back working there. Nothing feels longer than an 8 hour shift at McDonalds.
Most of these are really old, and the others are quite a stretch.

The McCloskeys were about to be killed by an armed mob and showed their weapons as self-defense. Kathy Griffin wasn't banned from Twitter or other social media. She wasn't convicted for hate speech. Nothing happened to her for holding up a severed head. And what did happen to Taylor Swift for coming out as a democrat supporter? nothing.

Also this is 100% politics on top of being wrong. Has no right to be here.
And we would be keeping interstellar carbon emissions at a manageable level too!
I realize we're talking about voting with dollars here but it's also possible that consumers could literally vote on (or push their representative to draft) legislation to address the issue. I'm not up-to-date on the John Deere right-to-repair litigation but seems like the concept is the same.
I feel like it’s exactly the opposite - buggy behavior is very anti apple, having a phone say “this part is unauthorized” is very clear and tells you that apple is invalidating 3rd party repairs, vs adding something that requires tuning/training via a software tool and fails sorta later. I feel like locking out 3rd party camera repairs via buggy behaviors is very...roundabout.
Importance of mass-production can not be underestimated. ERP has only 2 working reactors and 3 in construction. Meanwhile Russia produces VVER reactors in an almost conveyor-like fashion (see list in [0]), iterating on design and streamlining construction process, which results in more than twice smaller CAPEX per GW and less delays. Such mass production allows to lower cost of R&D per built reactor and in general to "spread" cost of supporting country's nuclear expertise, which is then used for development of new technologies such as breeders and non-RTG space reactors (though sadly the latter does not see much development lately).

When energy cost of nuclear vs renewables is compared it's very common not only to forget about cost of storage and of additional generation capacity (including natural gas peak plants) required for renewables, but also to bring cost of nuclear based on the projects like ERP, not on the Russian/Chinese/Korean projects, which arguably have much more sensible and viable in long-term energy policy.

What's the driver for people who actually want an OS-provided k8s? What holds them back from using upstream releases instead? (Or given large enough team - building/patching themselves) I guess it also applies to Ubuntu/openstack to a lesser level.

If you're planning to run those as a platform, it sounds like more pain then necessary.
>It's whiteboard interviews that are getting most of the heat.

I generally see take home tests getting the heat, because people are being expected to give up an extra 4-6 hours of their life to the job process without getting compensation. And maybe the person doing 4 hours gets beat out by the person doing 8, and the people with kids are screwed.
I think this assumes a level of savvy in the average smartphone customer (aka the entire world)... Most people don't understand "repairability" in the context of less complicated systems (their cars, refrigerators, etc.). They can't vote for what they don't understand.

This can be seen in product faults that remain fixed for many years in other consumer products. (see Samsung washing machines, GM ignition systems, etc.) Folks don't know how to evaluate design considerations at this level, I think this supports robust right-to-repair regulation as a counter-veiling force.

Maybe you can’t, and that’s fine, but for most people the superior user experience delivered by that walled garden is more appealing than any alternative.

I’m not defending Apple’s user-hostile practices, I’m just saying that if this situation is going to change by people voting with their wallets, it’ll be because of changes to things that matter to the masses, and not the (totally legitimate) philosophical concerns of technology enthusiasts.
I’m very sad to say that I feel exactly the same way. Goodbye IFTTT. I wish you well. Truly. We have just outgrown each other.

I think we agree on the optics. I conclude that this is underhanded on Apple's part.
I'm actually confused as to how people even make Twitter accounts. Twitter has always asked for a phone number here at the time of creating your accounts. Who even considers giving that? I've never been able to even create a fake account.
I appreciate these articles because it highlights how circumstances can change for a group of people at any moment. The old saying, "First they came for ... then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me" rings in my mind.

It's important we highlight these struggles and do our part in supporting them... you might find yourself in a similar situation one day. With that I'd encourage folks to read more about BLM, Uighur concentration camps, Palestine, etc. Even if you feel powerless in stopping oppression the very least you could do is be aware and spread the word.
Yes the United States has been historically plagued by racial injustices. If you'd like more to be listed, consider the Tulsa Race Massacre and Seneca Village. Maybe the Trail of Tears.

I don't see your great point in posting this.

Hell, IIRC, the whole Cali gun ban thing is because a certain group of white people didn't like black people legally walking on the capital with guns. Imagine if they would've wanted to make an example out of roof Koreans as well.

Option 2, have faith in your abilities and take the leap. Toxic workplaces can affect your mental makeup and the effects can last longer than one might realize. Always keep some money in your savings and quit if you ever get stuck in a toxic / BS job. And don't worry about age, there are companies which are open minded enough to hire talented and experienced people - the world isn't doomed yet for 30+ software engineers :) Just sharing my opinion with you :) Good Luck to you!

> California has a really strange set of thoughts here... strictly punishing power shutdowns (based on wind speeds, which are only semi-predictable) and strictly punishing not shutting down.

I don't think its weird that the power utility is obligated to:

(1) provide reliable power or, failing that, proper notice of imminent disconnections (so that people don't die), and

(2) adequately maintain its infrastructure so that it doesn't burn down the state (so that people don't die)

If PG&E was honestly trying to do the things it is paid quite well to do, rather than fraudulently covering up that it is not doing them until that gets bunches of people killed and property destroyed (and doing the same thing time and again across different parts of the company), this wouldn't be a problem. When they committed 85 felonies leading to the 2018 fires, remember, they were on still on probation for federal felonies related to the San Bruno pipeline explosion.
Yay, more fake news!

It's way better now. Flexbox and Grid is a game changer for CSS compared to floats in my opinion.
I haven't used a Microsoft OS in a long time but somebody told me a few years ago that alternative shells like Litestep became severely limited after the UI changes in Windows 8/10. Not sure if it's true or not or why that is.

I think you missed the mark on this though. I never saw Wayland as being any less about mechanism over policy. In theory X does have more mechanisms to work with but in practice the well-behaved programs that get used a lot tend use toolkits that follow ICCCM/EWMH strictly, and won't do strange things that are out of the ordinary with the policies of the popular desktops.

Compared to Wayland where the idea seems to be that WM implementers actually got more freedom to add any policies they want because they also implement the display server. From a client perspective it's still the same as X. Clients get what they need to function in isolation and don't really have to care about a WM's policies, and when they want to care they check for a specific policy. (In X they would check for an atom) I guess that probably doesn't work so well for Arcan because it also doesn't set anything in the way of policy. Maybe it would be possible for Arcan users to write policies as wayland extensions in lua?
If news is just going to tell me what I already know and regurgitate what I already think, why bother reading it? Am I really more informed in a meaningful way if all I'm viewing is a carefully manicured slice of reality designed to keep me feeling comfortable?

Sorta funny you say that, given that Twitter's original value prop (how it got huge) was being able to Tweet via SMS. The character limits weren't just for fun.
What you wrote is extremely vague, charged, and lacking in nuance. Clarification would help anyone, especially since you’re apparently already prepared for, “anyone who denies this.”

Which examples of anti-asian violence occurred during the BLM protests? Can you be specific?

Which party was in power for both incidents you’ve mentioned? Why or why not does that matter?

What effects are those having on Asians? Is there an increase/decrease in anti-asian crime?

Looking forward to your response.

Edit: Downvotes are fine, but consider that this post is merely asking for clarifications on a charged post and expressing no political opinions whatsoever.
I'm loathe to answer this question. I'm not a doctor.

Where you live, and how the disease is impacting you, will change the answer.

Rather than issuing an institution name, because we likely live in different countries, it may be better to look at what kind of specialist you would be seeing, and perhaps adjusting expectations a little.

I know that it is common in the US to be assigned to a rheumatologist for treatment of fibromyalgia. This isn't the norm the world over, as they _may_ not have all the necessary experience. Rather, you may find it more helpful to see a Pain Specialist (actual doctor title), who can help you with the symptoms you experience. My own Pain Specialist also specialises in fibromyalgia. I also see a Physiotherapist who specialises in fibromyalgia, and a psychologist who specialises in chronic pain. All three regularly send each other reports. My general doctor isn't involved in the treatment of the illness, it's a specialist condition, and they are not. They'll always defer to the Pain Specialist.

---

However, the biggest part of the question "haven't had any luck with treatment options of fibromyalgia" comes down to your expectations.

FM is a chronic illness, that has both flare-ups and relapses. For many sufferers, but not all, there is _no_ expectation that they will ever be able to reach a level of normality. There is however, an expectation that you may go backwards every few years in what you are capable of, and what you are experiencing, regardless of whether or not you are capable of achieving near-normality.

This is not an illness that can be "cured". For a lot of people the best that _can_ be done is to make it tolerable to live with _most_ of the time. If the treatment is taking the edge off, but you still find yourself highly disabled - that's normal.

A very few number of people can return to near-normality, but for most sufferers, that's never going to happen. It doesn't matter what combination of medication/physio/diet/lifestyle regime that you're on. The illness is pervasive, and may affect all areas of life. However, without such a regime, you may suffer more than is strictly necessary.

Having a team of specialists that communicate is probably the most helpful safety net.
I agree completely, as an Indian-American in the tech industry. I have experienced first hand discrimination against my technical and communication skills.

One thing I have a lot of trouble grasping is that the Indian population is not represented in articles addressing discrimination against "Asians", despite being a part of Asia.
> they should be downsizing

Often the house isn't much to downsize from. If they bought a modest house for 100K back then, it's probably not big.

I bought my current house in my 20s. It is tiny because it was all I could afford back then. I always expected to move up, but it hasn't happened. So I've made my life on this street, these parks and forests. I could afford to move up now but it's a nice area and it has become home. I'm not ready to retire but when I do, there's no point in downsizing, it's already tiny.

Also don't underestimate the pain of moving for an older person. I often wish my >90yr mother would move closer to here but at that age she is terrified having to change any of her regular doctors and neighbors.

The grandma may be an "useful narrative piece" and it was, but it is also very real. These are the people who benefit the most from being able to stay in their home to the end. It is very cruel to force an older person to move from their comfort zone.

Of course, corporations taking advantage of prop13 is a travesty. It should be for individuals in their own home only.

When the doctors treating you believe that nonsense and then are surprised it did not work there isn't much hope for the public. This myth actually comes from the doctors.

Although, back in his day they thought that Antarctica already had a giant inland sea. Jules Verne also wrote about the idea in some of his stories. It's hard to imagine these days, but there used to be parts of the earth's surface that nobody had ever surveyed in fairly contemporary times.
> That would be a decision made by the government of California, not by PG&E. Their budget has to be approved by the state.

Oh, like PG&E would never commit fraud to conceal bnot doing what it is legal obligated to do with regard to safety.

I mean, its not like its been convicted of 91 federal and state felonies in two separate incidents producing substantial property damage and death which involved exactly that behavior.

The PUC controls (some of) what PG&E is legally obligated to do, but it doesn't control what PG&E actually does.
Thanks, I was aware of that. I'm not in any of those counties, so that can't explain the outlier tax rates on a few houses here being far lower than the tax on them when first constructed.

Might just be errors in the reported data.
I find a lot of joy watching the JavaScript community and languages like Swift and Kotlin meet in the middle. Especially when you start looking at Typescript. Even Java has become tolerable these days.
Thanks! It has been a long time coming but I'm glad I've launched - now I can focus on iteratively improving what I've built in the open.
It feels very strange to put out there that I've had the same issue, but it seems to be very common, and yet is rarely spoken about.

I had the same path as you — infection, antibiotics (through an IV), and then a few weeks later the pain sort of disappeared! Now and then I wake up with the same pain, maybe twice a month, and it lasts for 1-3 days. But otherwise it's mysteriously disappeared. (I feared it may have been torsion/Bell Clapper Deformity or something like that.)

I think you may find this article interesting: https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/finding-help-for-pelvic-.... There is another article I found where two doctors noted that men in high-performing careers (ostensibly with a lot of stressors) often complained of chronic testicular pain. They had developed this sort of massaging device [...] which worked remarkably well for their patients, some of whom had even had testicles removed because of the pain, but oddly I can't find it now.

For all practical purposes they were, or damn close to it. Modern conceptions of the nation-state are post-Napoleon, so when the Articles of Confederation and later the Constitution were put together, Union meant Union, however post-Civil War, that came to matter much much less.

There was an episode during the ratification debates where Rhode Island was almost left out of the United States. 12 other States had already ratified the new US Constitution but Rhode Island held out for more concessions until eventually it was decided that Rhode Island could ratify or leave the Union. Considering they were surrounded by much larger States who had prior grievances with Rhode Island, Rhode Island made the right call. Otherwise they’d likely be part of New York or Massachusetts right now.
> If the government regulates everything about the company why is it not at least partly responsible?

Because the company keeps not following the regulations and committing fraud to cover it up (and sometimes, after that, committing obstruction of justice to cover that up.)

I mean, just based on their 91 state and federal felony convictions in the last several years.
Not right now. This is something we'd like to do, but connecting to other clusters/architectures would bring a lot of additional complexity into the product. As a startup, we need to balance a lot of things and while we're in beta the development speed has the highest priority.
What is P / E Ratio – P / E Ratio?
Price-to-earnings ratio (price-earnings ratio) is the valuation ratio of a company that measures its current share price in relation to earnings per share (EPS). The price-earnings ratio is sometimes also known as the price multiplier or the earnings multiplier.

Forward rate to earnings

These two types of EPS metrics are a factor in the most common types of P / E ratios: forward return and P / E ratio. The third and least popular variation uses the sum of the last two actual quarters and estimates for the next two quarters.

توصيات الذهب

P / E uses future (or leading) earnings guidance rather than trailing numbers. This forward-looking indicator, sometimes called the "Estimated Profit Rate", is useful for comparing current earnings with future earnings and helps provide a clearer picture of what profits will look like - without other accounting changes and adjustments.

توصيات الذهب

However, there are problems inherent in the forward price-to-earnings scale - that is, firms can reduce earnings in order to overcome the price-to-earnings estimate when announcing next-quarter earnings. Other companies may overestimate them and later adjust them with their next earnings announcement. Moreover, outside analysts may also provide estimates that may differ from the company’s estimates, creating confusion.
