The link you posted opens with "Cultural appropriation is the adoption of an element or elements of one culture or identity by members of another culture or identity."

I read the top summary and the overview section, and it still looks to me that yes, it does mean appropriating things from another culture.

Any subtlety I'm missing? Would you take a shot at summarizing the definition you hold?

Seems reasonable!

> That would of course suggest a search that would require Apple hardware.

People performing actual searches has to be one of the lower cost factors of creating a search engine, at least for a long time. Unless it completely explodes, which I find very doubtful considering Googles position, and also considering Apples deep pockets, I don't think Apple will be in a big hurry to shut the gates. Additionally I can totally see Apple doing heavy integration with it's systems and actually using this potential search engine to upsell people into their ecosystem.

https://explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/1972:_Autogyros

> Extremely safe, unless you do the one thing you instinctively do to escape a stall in a normal airplane, in which case it will crash immediately.

> Autogyros are considered safe due to their slow landing speed, which is important in emergency landings, their forgiving behavior in windy conditions and the fact they are almost impossible to stall. This is thanks to the freely spinning rotor. Unfortunately, as soon as the rotor stops spinning, the whole aircraft falls like a brick and the rotor may be impossible to restart in flight. This is a situation that should be avoided at all costs.

> Normally it is not a problem since the weight of the aircraft keeps the rotor spinning. However, if the weight becomes too low or even negative, the angle of attack will become negative, and the rotor will slow down and eventually stop. It can happen when the pilot "pushes on the stick" and dives.

> Unfortunately, "pushing on the stick" is also how you escape a stall in a fixed wing (normal) airplane as it is a way to regain airspeed. This is actually a counter-intuitive maneuver but because a stall is an emergency, pilots are trained to do it instinctively. It can trick a pilot trained in fixed wing aircraft into doing the one thing that shouldn't be done on a gyro.
> You don't really want to fly them in the rain - erodes rotor and propellor

I'm intrigued, could you elaborate on why this is different from what happens with a helicopter or a plane in the rain?
It is good to wait a few weeks at least but I have been running fedora the last few years and the last 2-3 fedora releases have been stellar. I have upgraded within a few days of release and had zero issues (with fedora 33 I upgraded last eve :) ). It has gotten much much better...

Congrats to Fedora team!

Records though can be messy across businesses (retailer, wholesaler, manufacturer). A simple example would be if the purchase order id could be entered in different formats like if one vendor has dashes (like [customer]-[order number]) and then that PO id is entered without dashes at another system.

If you do a simple search or table join you aren't going to get a match, and if the person who was asked to provide the records doesn't go the extra step to do the search again you suddenly have a lot of issues.
Its also contrary to all best parliamentary practice and should be ruled out of order.

As a problem solver, I'd like to think that I'm always subconsciously working on unsolved problems at the back of my mind. Taking my mind off a problem for a bit might help me get a fresh perspective on things, and lead me to eventually solving it faster.

Mental energy distractions like board games and TV might help in similar ways.
I second, second brain. heh. I invested like 20 hours setting up my notion just right, and it's so worth it. It's so much more organize than my mucky/intangible brain. I also believe in the GTD philosophy that your brain is for having ideas, not storing them.
The JS is not dynamic content as far as the WP server is concerned -- it's just a static JS file(s) that's served. The dynamic behavior it has happens (and impacts) the client (and whatever third party service does the tracking, e.g. GA).
1# It's not expensive as 2 decades ago, most of the data is behind gardens now, Reddit, FB, Twitter, Amazon, and less than 1000 other sites. Everything else can be crawled slowly.

2# Search is one of THE primary usage of the device, they have enough throwaway money to take this on. Just like Maps.

3# Sounds suspicious. But anti trust discussion started few years back and if you look through those optics EVERYTHING will look suspicious this year. There is no non-suspicious time for one of biggest companies in the world/human history to compete with each other.

Yes - and writing is a way to extend your memory as well. You can work more complex ideas with yourself, using the paper as storage for what you have already thought through.

Can you imagine doing some even simple Calc-type proofs without paper? Not possible. Many things are like that.

You give up maybe better memory in your head in exchange for being able to make progress that your couldn’t have made without the tool of writing.

Humans are ultimately tool-using animals more or less... makes sense that we use tools that are valuable.
There's no list of comparison. In terms of features Postman has lot of features. Hoppscotch (as of now) only has essential features. Hoppscotch is a community driven project, new features are being added on every week.

Hoppscotch is a web app, you can spin up a API test from your smartphone / tablet on the go. It's an open source project, you can make infinite collections, environments and sync them across devices. Apart from REST APIs, Hoppscotch has WebSocket, GraphQL, SocketIO, SSE, MQTT, API Documentation generator etc.

I am intrigued at this trend to move toward static content. In 2010 it was LAMPs everywhere, with WordPress being a major product of that time. Now the cool kids are talking about the JAM stack [1], which feels like what AJAX was back then. We knew about it, we just didn't think it was cool because CDN's weren't really "a big thing" yet.

In a fixed wing plane, one of the big things to worry about is a stall (which isn't possible in a gyro). I a plane, you get out of a stall by building airspeed - nose down and throttle up.

If you do a sudden nose down and throttle up in a gyro at the wrong time a couple of things can happen - you can build up an unsafe amount of airspeed and you can put air the wrong way through the rotor, slowing it down. If you do that too low you'll crash (a gyro without a spinning rotor is just a brick).

Basically avoid doing things which cause negative G. This is important enough that it's printed on a placard on all UK certified Gyros, but is also really easy to avoid doing.
Please note that this is a single issue, early prototype license. Those are quite different from somewhat more normal custom build licenses for these kind of vehicles once they are entering limited production. This has not been approved for any other usage like limited production and is only valid for this specific vehicle. While this license is "European" there are lot of issues driving these kind of vehicles with this licenses across Europe legally.

Addendum: This means they cannot sell them yet as they first have to show production compliance. And have more stringent testing for those vehicles.

Addendum 2: It also has no aircraft license so flying is not an option.
Illuminating. Thank you.

For more serious observers:

Bitcoin is "pseudoanonymous", right? Am I wrong in assuming that state level actors would have the juice to deanon transactions? Like we suspect NSA and others have hacked tor?

Naive me guesses bad guys launder bitcoin thru banks beyond the reach of interpol and other agencies. That seems like a thin, easily pierced veil by any sufficiently motivated state level player.

I've watched some videos about money laundering for noob audiences like me. Based on some of the strategies explained, another notion occurs to me: use a herd of smurfs to launder the bitcoin into physical assets.

I wrote this week about how all tech companies are becoming conglomerates that compete with each other in an oligopoly [1]. This is a great example of that. Every big tech company seems to clone successful units of other tech companies. Over time, every big tech company becomes less distinguishable from its peers.

Comparing Google, Apple, and Amazon, all three have: smart home products, email services, music services, video conferencing, fitness trackers, phones, tablets, ad networks, app stores, a web browser, and some kind of prominent search engine (products, apps, or web).

Next up: I expect Apple to launch (or buy) a cloud computing backend.

What to Know Before Booking a Videographer
You could use the web before that, but with text based browsers which frankly weren't very inspiring nor popular. Most people preferred gopher etc - there was a brilliant mac gopher client.

What transformed the web was the launch of the Mosaic along with NCSA HTTPd - mostly in the backend of 1993 - it took off like wild fire - it's hard to remember dates, but I definitely remember the launch of Netscape Browser - which according to wikipedia was late 1994 - and at that point the web was already pretty popular.

Not just the web, but a large percentage of people had their own websites - it was ridiculously easy to do - just put an index.html in your ~/public_html folder.

Obviously this was all the in rarefied atmosphere of academia - and the computers were Unix work stations and most users were at University and largely PhD students at that.
WebKit-based browsers (e.g. Safari, Epiphany) will show a console message. That's it.

It might just be me, but Apple TV on the web is extremely slow and buggy.

Also, Windows lets you login into your iCloud account without the iCloud client, so you can still have your iCloud calendar (and emails) in the stock apps. I don't use the iCloud client because I don't use it to store files, but I still have my calendars and emails synced on my Windows desktop.

As for Maps, they don't really have a consumer facing web client, but they do let other websites embed Apple Maps. DuckDuckGo, for instance, uses Apple Maps for their maps.

As someone who has worked on WordPress hosting companies for over 10 years now, I feel obligated to add that many hosting companies do not optimize MySQL settings either, despite their marketing saying otherwise.

In fact, the database layer is often forgotten when you talk optimization in the WordPress world — page cache is usually seemed as the holy grail, with MySQL left to fend for itself.

Something I have been wondering about, wouldn't a virus naturally evolve to be less deadly and more contagious over time? I.e. virus's tend to achieve a steady state like the cold and flu in the long run. If you are too deadly it hinders spread so I would expect Covid to get less deadly and more contagious over time, which kind of fits the data?

Sometimes people just want to vent. There was a host on a podcast who admitted to venting to a company. He bought an item. It arrived and worked as advertised, but he was thoroughly underwhelmed by the product.

The podcaster emails the company talking about his dissatisfaction. The response was something like, "We understand your frustrations. Even if there's no issue, you can send it back for a refund." The podcaster realized that nothing was actually wrong. The product worked as advertised. It didn't break. It didn't arrive damaged. There were just unfulfilled expectations. I want to say that he responded by thanking them for their time but a refund wouldn't be necessary.

This guy inadvertently took up support time for an issue that wasn't really an issue. If you mix this scenario with entitled people or hobbyists who are very particular about minor details, sellers may spend lot of time on supporting very few customers.
Interesting how polarizing this article is.

I loved it and his writing style, I agree that it's rough premise and although there are counter arguments e.g. Stripe/Uber/Coinbase I think the overall argument is correct, the culture has changed.

But it's interesting to see so many argue that this is written in a self-aggrandizing, self-important style. Generally I agree with those people when it comes to LinkedIn style articles etc. e.g. [0] is a prime example.

But this one really resonated with me and comes across as extremely genuine hence my surprise at the reaction.

Apple pretty famously goes out of it's way to not collect that sort of privacy busting user data in the first place.

For instance, when Apple Maps uses user devices to update it's map data like Waze does:

>“We collect data — when we do it — in an anonymous fashion, in subsections of the whole, so we couldn’t even say that there is a person that went from point A to point B.

Neither the beginning or the end of any trip is ever transmitted to Apple. Rotating identifiers, not personal information, are assigned to any data or requests sent to Apple and it augments the “ground truth” data provided by its own mapping vehicles with this “probe data” sent back from iPhones.

4-6 second total page load time. This includes the document, static assets, and JavaScript parsing.

Based on many data points from our monitoring of website performance, this is a very common range.
What is the incentive for that? Apple driving ads through the search engine will not be a good look for them. They would be losing the billions coming from google too. This seems more like some reporter running with Scott galloway’s prediction and making up a story rather than tea reporting.
There is always a trade-off between static and dynamic content. Serving static articles out of a database is always going to have vastly lower performance than generating the page at the time of authorship and setting long cache expiry times.

The problem with long cache times is that then some readers might see an out-of-date version of your page. I would argue that that is a small inconvenience to avoid no readers being about to see your article at all.

I know there are a lot of WordPress plugins that effectively generate the pages ahead of time and just serve those. I think perhaps that should be the default way WordPress works, at least for single articles. There is little gain in generating the whole page on every hit and everything to lose.

Engineers tend to conflate politics with toxic politics, and that's a source of a lot of confusion.

Toxic politics are everywhere, but the ability to negotiate, navigate the organization, find what make people w/ authority tick, is crucial to any successful manager.
That characterization of the 1976 act... let's just say, years later, person on the government side of that negotiation was still defensively apologetic, claiming it a success... as damage control, because of all the "crazy stuff" Disney et al were pushing. Beware a concerted effort since to rewrite history as "just Berne, no biggy". Berne reflects a major defeat of a US tradition of copyright as "industrial policy for the general welfare", by a European tradition of "rights and property", and by rent seeking.
