I think the situation in France is probably hopeless. Even Muslim-majority countries are having a difficult time reconciling themselves with the rise of Islamic separatism. In countries like Bangladesh, where I’m from, or Turkey or Egypt, the separatism takes the form of reaction against the moderate secular regimes of the 20th century. Here is the President of Egypt in 1958 recounting his conversation with the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood. He and the audience laugh at the leader’s request to mandate headscarves in Egypt, observing that the leader’s own daughter, a medical student, doesn’t wear a headscarf: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZIqdrFeFBk. Back then, few women in Egypt wore a headscarf. Today, 90% of women do (and Muslim Brotherhood was recently in control of the country). In Bangladesh there are objections to our legal system, which is based on British common law, and our western-style constitution that embodies principles of secularism: https://resolvenet.org/system/files/2018-08/RSVE_03Banglades....

People don’t give the United States enough credit for how well we have assimilated our Muslim immigrants. In France and Germany, Muslims suffer from generational poverty. In the US, they have higher incomes than average within a generation. I think our religiosity had a lot to do with it. We are a country founded by people who got kicked out of Europe for being religious fundamentalists. Our society functions smoothly with Mormons, Jehovah’s witnesses, Amish, etc.

Our society is accommodating on multiple levels—religious immigrants aren’t exclusively reliant on the goodwill of a segment of cosmopolitan liberals who like the idea of diversity for its own sake. Mormons and Southern Baptists took an active role in legal challenges to Trump’s “Muslim ban” (a tepid reaction compared to what’s happening in Europe). They have likewise challenged municipal actions denying construction permits for mosques. George W. Bush saw Islamic terrorists kill thousands of Americans and days later gave a heartfelt speech—coming from his own experience as a man of deep faith—about how Islam is a “religion of peace.” Meanwhile in France even liberal people strongly support stripping schoolgirls of headscarves. Macron is calling Islam a “religion in crisis.” French society barely manages to accommodate Christianity. How can it be expected to accommodate Islam?

I have had this problem many times, once at Target and then at my local grocery store which just doesn't have the turn over really. It makes me wonder why we don't have expiration dates encoded in the UPC. Seems like a worthwhile upgrade so that when the checker scans it, it should alert you.
Nagle is fine for web, as long as you flush when you reach the end of your request/response. And at strategic places like end of headers, end of html head, etc, if you know the content isn't directly forthcoming.

A lot of HTTP software writes things to sockets in small chunks though, especially headers and what not. I've seen some things with chunked encoded posts; I don't think it was visible at the TCP level, but I would get three TLS application data segments, one for $SIZE\r\n, one for the size worth of data, and one for the trailing \r\n. Ugh.

Even in the US there is consensus for doing something. Thankfully by the time that something happens it will be too late thanks to lobbying by people history will not look kindly upon.

Ignoring the scientific fraud behind the alternative answers, only 14% percent of "Conservative" republicans believe in man-made climate change - conserving what then?
Sustainability is a factor of the population times its emission. So the answer would depend on how much we can decrease our emissions.

If I had to guess, I don't think we will be able to reduce our emissions enough to sustain the population density of developed countries. But I am pretty sure that it could be doable if we took all the measures we could take.

I totally admit and agree that the psychology of such things matters, but isn't that just the same thing with a different coat of paint?

e.g. "Comcast announces that effective next June, prices will be raised by $30 for all customers.

In order to mitigate this price increase, Comcast is also announcing that low-usage customers who are willing to have a 1 TB transfer cap are able to get a $30 discount."
Climate Anxiety on the Rise
I wonder what precipitated this slew of coverage. In my subjective experience, when Western European states do something creepy or authoritarian, publications like the WP and NYT seem to ignore or downplay it. Never gets much play here in the US unless you're reading fringe publications.

Are France and the US in a policy dispute? Or is it just the strike against academia and critical race theory?

It'd have been awesome if that was the reason.
This looks awesome! I’d switch to this immediately, but there’s a couple things I’d love to confirm before downloading/paying for another app (I’ve tried nearly every MD editor on iOS!):

1. Does it support opening external folders from other iOS apps? I’ve started using Working Copy so that I can store and sync my notes in GitHub repos. I’ve been using iA Writer as my Markdown Editor (since it interops nicely with Working Copy), but I’m interested in something with better Roam/Obsidian-like features.

2. Does it have a Markdown preview? Or just the editor +
navigation support? I often use a lot of Markdown tables, and so having a preview mode is pretty critical to efficiently reading the content later.
Depending on the specifics of the implementation, and who you trust, it may not be ironic at all. Securing a surveillance camera feed isn't exactly difficult.

Actually a lot of success people are like that. For successful careers you got to be comfortable stepping on others' toes and persuading others to do things in your way. Human nature. Most of us are just herds who secretly want to be led by a strong, charismatic leader.
On the other hand, it was people like this that once fingered the wrong person for the Boston Marathon bombing. It's all well and good as long as we remember not to put too much stock in it when it really matters.
Except if you're self-promoting, you're not going to get your post to the top of any healthy subreddit with an active user base. In my experience on r/electricvehicles, self-promotion/spam posts stay at 0 upvotes with a handful of reports and complaints in the comment section. It's literally just spam that wastes everyone's time.

One pattern is for a YouTube channel to try to spam their content on the sub. I know it's the channel owner (or someone affiliated with the channel owner) because each video they post everywhere has the same logo in the upper-left corner. And those videos are pretty much all they post. They get banned from my sub very quickly, and in my experience they don't come back.
It's pretty near Moab, UT - which is an adult kid's playground. The area is abundant with trails. Much of that land is regularly explored with various 4x4s for sport, even (and especially) off the trails. And Moab would also be a place enriched for people with the skill and desire to make a giant metal slab and find a place to stash it.

The 'monolith' is just a bit SE of the "Dead Horse Point" (SW of Moab), just on the east side of the river on this map [1].

This is nothing to do with the telemetry in Windows 10.

It's a very particular complaint about the telemetry in Windows 10 that Microsoft fired their QA employees, feed telemetry into an AI blackbox and no human looks at it and therefore doesn't fix things people want fixing.

This being a different system, on a different product, for a different purpose, used differently, explicitly for humans to look at, is different.

Of course not (well, not anything beyond a ceremonial slap on the wrist, perhaps). France is the junior partner in the Franco-German hegemony that is the EU, even if they are a bit of a Fredo of the pair. You have to be a "second tier" subordinate member before the "EU" will say anything, and not really because any freedoms are being restricted necessarily, but because it messes with the tight grip of the German hegemonic power structure. If you were a neoimperialist, would you want your de facto colonies getting "uppity"? Heck no. In dictatorships, you use the baton. In democratic republics, you use the media to shape opinion and "soft" political coercion. You don't want people to know you're an imperialist, after all.

I sell around 1.5-2m a year in website and design and marketing projects for a 5-7 person team mostly through a monthly adwords spend of $1k and portfolio references and being legitimate SEO experts so our site performs well and our client sites perform well.

Minimum website project is 5.5k, the moment I just stopped working with smaller budget clients, the moment my time opened up to pursue more profitable partnerships. The cap on sales is only on production assets and could easily be 2xed using the same methods and more lenient sales tactics.

Most clients could care less about technology, but most of our projects are in Umbraco which allows us to not be apples to apples to your run of the mill wordpress providers (im personally a fan of wordpress and have hundreds of WP sites from my affiliate marketing and webdesign background)

I reviewed your portfolio, if I was hiring or looking for a web provider, it wouldn't work for me because nothing in the portfolio is complete. You should determine your audience also as most of your portfolio language is heavy with design terms, business owners (if that is your audience) should be talked to in their own language.
One of the reasons that I like T-Mobile as a company is that they realized that the correct answer to network management is de-prioritization.

If someone is downloading a lot at 2am, it doesn't harm anyone. Let them have fun! There's no reason to care about someone using capacity on your network when almost no one else is using the network.

During peak times, it makes sense to give priority to those who use less data while still offering an acceptable level of service to those who use a lot of data.

I'm really hopeful that the next few years will bring competition to the home internet space. T-Mobile has been adding a lot more areas to its home internet footprint recently. Their service certainly isn't perfect and might not be what people here would be looking for (given that wireless home internet is likely to be slower than wired for a bit). However, competition would put pressure on Comcast. When T-Mobile started offering better terms for their mobile service, a lot of people said that T-Mobile's coverage wasn't good enough for them to switch. It was good enough for enough people to switch that AT&T and Verizon vastly changed their offerings. They went from offering me 3GB of data for $30 to offering me unlimited. It's hard to remember the 2012-era data plans at this point. Verizon has started offering wireless home internet as well, albeit on a more limited basis than T-Mobile.

T-Mobile's mobile offering didn't work for a lot of people back in 2013-2016, but it provided enough competition that Verizon and AT&T reintroduced unlimited data. Even if people on here won't switch to wireless home internet, it could provide an excellent option for people looking for a bill without hidden fees and unexpected increases in price. The churn from those customers will put pressure on Comcast to offer better terms for their service.
There's no chance it is solid. It's probably 5mm thick at most.
This fits my experience. It doesn't even need to be 'failure' per se. I got burned out as a post-doc because I found the publication process really draining & ultimately being published didn't feel very rewarding/meaningful. So, it was technically success, but it felt like a waste.
Launching Autocode 1.0
Absolutely. I left that part out, but if there is something I need to change to do my job better, I most certainly do that as best as I can. The thing is that those conversations have never been directly tied to metrics.
I think within big tech companies (Google/Apple/MS/etc.) you can find teams that have this kind of culture. IMO any team that does serious system programming (Compilers/OS/Libraries/etc.) should have it.

Yes, it is a value, but it isn't really anything that couldn't be rewritten from scratch in about 30 minutes by a typescript developer.

And it's possible that they aren't even directly using his code, and don't even really know about it beyond an automated system publishing the licenses. Due to the way licensing works, Nintendo could be using OSS library A that they shower their largess upon with free switches, but library A uses library B, which uses library C, which uses safe-buffer. Safe-buffer would still have to have their license published in that manner, but it isn't really clear that nintendo is exploiting that party. Hell, it could even be the case that the author's code is never actually executed on the switch, if for example it was bundled in but is part of a feature that is never called, because Nintendo wanted to use other parts of the same library that happened to include safe-buffer.

By the way, I just checked Nintendo's open source switch library, and there are at least 36,000 copyright notices present in the archive. That's a lot of free switches!

My biggest struggle with my Mikrotik was discovering how much consumer grade routers do behind the scenes automagically that commercial grade routers will not.

For instance, I wanted working NAT reflection and since my external IPv4 address is dynamic I wanted to construct a static ruleset that didn't specifically reference it. The solution there required me to exclude traffic destined for my LAN address range in my dnat forwarding rules to get it working properly. Fun stuff.
What the Tip-of-the-Tongue Phenomenon Says About Cognitive Aging
I stopped taking Ethereum serious and consider anything that comes from the Gavin Woods / Vitalik Buterin twotter handles as pure garbage (at least from a technological pov). How can anyone take these people serious after they ended up hard forking?

They literally had to go against everything they said and stood for by manually intervening or throw the investments of thousands under the bus. Either you're a decentralized system ruled by consensus or you have top-down hirarchy but you can't claim both. They proofed that a human would intervene any time the proverbial sh!t hits the fan which makes them no better than an expensive but centrally controlled set-up of an RDBMS.

Ethereum is snake-oil and if I see a CV that says blockchain without making crystal clear what they're doing in that space it goes immediately in the recycle bin.

There literally are no valid use-cases (other than buying heroin) in crypto today. And anyone who peddles this stuff always looks like a shill. the tragic is that all this sounds like hyperbole until you realize the same is true for all the BS ideas that got (and still are) peddled since 2017 (wink-wink nudge-nudge $iota the blockchain that isn't one and that manages to invent the only hash-function which isn't collision resistant).
Discretion is the root of inequity.
One thing to watch out for is that FreeBSD ports/pkg is a "rolling release", where most 3rd party applications & libraries are updated frequently, as opposed to every 2 years for Ubuntu. The upshot is that you'll want to just update firefox, and it will want to remove and re-install 57 packages.

I personally run the quarterly packages to avoid the churn as much as I can. This is somewhat similar to Ubuntu, except "major" updates happen every 3 months.
The problem with inequality can be summed up in three words:

Apple's effective worldwide tax rate is ~25%, which is actually slightly higher than other US multinationals. That is also not counting taxes on income/capital gains paid by California employees, which are obviously pretty sizable.
cobegin/coend sound very much like co-routines, which is a relatively simple implementation of co-operative multitasking[1]. I've seen it used a lot in embedded programming, and the original Mac OS (pre os-x) was co-operative. Not so common these days with linux/freeRTOS/others providing pre-emptive multitasking

As for 'monitor', that's a standard term for a high level synchronization concept - basically shared data between tasks, but you can only access that data via the monitor's procedures, and it enforces one-at-a-time access. You can create a monitor with a semaphore and a class-with-private-ivars, assuming all the accessors wait on the semaphore.

In your example, yes. I was envisioning an actual discount from current pricing for all customers, so that low-usage customers would actually come out ahead compared to their previous pricing.

In your example, there's no way for any customer to come out ahead, so it is just a different way of framing Comcast's existing plan.
