This is easy to say until you have actually tried to create a clear culture. It is even more clear when you have suffered from a bad culture you are trying to reform.

For example, I bought a company, the culture was highly competitive, focused on greed and self enrichment...and what do you know, we caught employees engaged in shady behavior. When we disciplined or fired some, they claimed discrimination, and while I have personal experience with discrimination and fully acknowledge it exists, their allegations had no merit, and their actions required the consequences.

The longer a lead people the more I value and strive to create a good culture.
Getting off topic now, but I like those, and still practise it. It lets the reader know not to expect a seperate closing tag.
I bookmarked it, and read it in detail step by step.

Thanks!
Rail tracks spend land in small amounts along their length. The terminals are pretty compact and can be largely put underground, so you can arrive to, or depart from, the very busy central areas of e.g. NYC, or London, or Paris, or Tokyo.

Planes do not require land under the flight path, but require colossal lumps of land for airports. These may be harder to allocate near a city, and you have to spend 40-60 minutes to get from an airport to the busy central areas of NYC or London.

This is a tradeoff, like most things in life.
It’s good to be king, in this analogy.

Did you not blindly claim space is infinite? That seems the stranger assumption. If I’m standing in a forest counting all the trees I can see, I’d certainly take into account that there are some trees I can’t see, but I wouldn’t assume there exists an infinite forest of trees.
Huh. I wasn't aware that they had such fast partial refresh for color ones - I thought that was only for the B&W kind. Things improve quickly I guess!
I don't think they ignore body builders.

Body builders just have a lot more discipline and will to win at this than the rest of us. So the straight "cut down on calories" strategy can work for them.

For everyone else, they need to not feel hungry while doing it.

In the same way that the most motivated students will overcome a bad teacher, but most will instead not learn anything compared to an interesting teacher.
I'd argue here that they're basically the public square of our time, just that law is slow to move here.
Thanks for sharing. I listened. I was surprised that it didn't qualify as a mental illness because it didn't cause distress. I didn't know about that qualifier in regards to mental illness. And then I was surprised the interviewer didn't call it out as mental illness when it turned to distress (eg wrecked her marriage and isolated her away from society into a small group of fellow tulpamancers)

Dark energy and dark matter are separate concepts. Dark energy refers to a factor that increases the expansion of the universe, ie a cosmological constant.

Dark matter on the other hand is matter we can’t detect currently, but we theorize is there from its gravitational effects.

There’s a lot of other data like galaxy rotation rates, CMB, gravitational lensing, etc that effect dark matter estimates. I’m not sure how much of the current estimate is based on larger observable universe structure, so it’s an interesting question.
I think you place too much emphasis on violence. As there are things worse than death or physical harm. Just as the face of war changed from a physical one to an economic one.

Democratic nation with a strong Oligarchy. Who over years forged q corpocracy that obfuscate such via citizens united. The basis in which we operate is democratic, but popular public policies are rarely enacted.

As to why you put too much emphasis on violence. Think of labor the united states has thanks to corporal punishment. Why waste labor?

In the end it doesn't matter too much as even the beginnings of a GAI would derail such a system. Think on the idiocy at the capital the other day and the post truth aspect that spurred it on.
Nine new California laws for 2021 explained – each in 1 minute
Hi there, I checked out your website. It's a cool idea and one that is needed.

What do you think of the fact that many of the products are in fact disposable by backed by a "lifetime" warranty precisely because they're so highly marked up that the manufacturer can give you a new one for free instead of attempting even trivial repairs? Osprey is the king of this. This seems to be the opposite of the buy for life mentality - things should be repaired if economical, but no one repairs what they can get replaced for free.
You'll find out just how much HR is your friend when and if you ever get laid off.
Bodybuilders by definition are self-selected subset of people who can consistently apply high self discipline and dedicate a lot of energy and willpower on that. I think it's pretty safe to count them as outliers when looking at solutions to obesity in the general population.
I'm taking part in a kind of folk music revival scene in my country and thus interested in those kinds of stuff. The initial disclaimer is, given that this is "non-material cultural heritage", it's hard to be sure about details; however, just for some incomplete (from what I see - I'm surprised they don't even mention Ukrainian or Russian folk music at all) summary of what is known, see e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphony (based on this, polyphony existed for sure at least before year 900). For some especially exotic (for "us") stuff see e.g.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnGM0BlA95I

Now to get closer to answering your actual question: from what I heard from some researchers (for whom visiting remote villages is part of their work), in shortest words, I understand people who were surrounded by songs all their life would "feel what is missing" by ear, and join with their voice to "fill the gap". Expanding a bit more on that, basically among every local community there were some people that were better at singing compared to the others. And singing tended to be required in some form, as part of various rituals (e.g. marriage, death are moments in life where you can be pretty sure there was some accompanying community ritual; and moms would shush and lullaby their kids even just for practical reasons). So it was more or less unavoidable to be familiar with singing to some extent. Now, as to the specific harmonies used in the modern sea shanties scene, I don't know enough to be able to say whether any of them are grounded in harmonies actually used on ships - that's not an area I've ever researched.

edit: Two more things: (1) higher layers of society tended to be derogatory towards the culture of the lower layers (I guess somewhat necessarily in order to differentiate and maintain status), so a lot of what you learn about history of music tends to be just about the music of the nobility, which often was just a small percent of the population; (2) also, singing is actually very close to speaking and shouting (see e.g.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYO_B5Nj8QY), so it's not hard to imagine singing in general might be at least as old as speech itself...
There is a Netflix series of the same name by the author that's worth a look - she's an engaging host.
I would argue that the boss is the easiest position to automate.
One example of many:

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jul/29/north-caroli...

> A federal court on Friday struck down North Carolina voting laws it said were enacted with “discriminatory intent”, targeting African Americans “with almost surgical precision”.

> Plaintiffs in the suit welcomed what one called “a stinging rebuke” to the Republican-controlled state government, representatives of which questioned the political affiliations of the judges involved and said they would appeal the decision to the US supreme court, because it “ignores legal precedent”.
Unfortunately this ability is only afforded to people who have accounts (I only use Teams when invited to someone else's meeting).

How silly that people who don't have accounts — because they use Teams infrequently — are subjected to the spammiest behavior.
This is a common misconception - very few people in the west are actually doing hard labor consistently for such a long time that they would burn enough calories to balance crappy diet full of bad calories like raw sugar in sodas.

I mean how many do daily effort on the level of running 1-2 marathons to burn all those calories? If you look around you will see plenty of older manual workers being overweight in the US, and not only there.
> they could offer control to override

Chrome lets you override and proceed to the site. The problem for the small business is that a large fraction of their customers see the scary red warning page.
That's a fine argument and all, but practically speaking, we see that as driven content for free outcompetes.
Conservative Jews were first vindicated for being Jewish in the 1940s and now the same people are being vindicated by the next ignorant group for being conservative, because people like think it is ok to blame an entire group of people based on personal, religious or political beliefs which do no harm. Conservatism isn’t harmful. Conservative Jews also hate Nazis.
I’ve had those experiences in China, my friends would often comment on my weight. They never meant it in a offensive way, but it’s still hurtful.
Deprecate it.
It's easy if your hormones are in balance. Thin people don't go snacking all the time, it's the chubby folks who do that.

For example, if your cortosol (the "stress" hormone) is high, you will be craving snacks. The moment it's back to normal (you don't have stress) you can sit around and not want snacks.

As other posters said, it is extremely hard to avoid snacking when your body craves them. It is extremely easy to not snack, when your body does not want them.

Stop throwing around this "easily" "its easy" around. If it were easy, we would not have this conversation.
If I leave for another company

Yeah that’s not a powerful move, that’s the equivalent of leaving the country. What happens if they’re all run along the exact same lines? You can start your own I guess, which is not feasible for most people.

That’s why we require the democratically elected leviathan to limit the power these people have over others.
Bodybuilders are not a representative population. There is extreme selection bias. They are obsessed about one thing, go to extreme length to achieve it, often to pathological lengths. It's like pointing out monks taking vows of chastity, solitude and silence and claiming that anyone can easily ignore their sex drive and other social needs.
1. Google doesn't own or control "the internet". They can change Google Chrome however they want; so long as they are plenty of us who don't want whatever crap they are peddling we can and will continue to use the internet as it has existed for a long time.

2. Web browsing is not "the internet". I get that headlines are all about grabbing attention by basically stating overblown lies and then backtracking in the details, but come on now.

3. Cookies aren't going away. They are necessary for how a majority of websites with login/sessions work.

4. 3rd party cookies are crap, and they may well be limited by most popular browsers. That is fine and doesn't affect normal web users. It affects advertisers to some degree, but no more than adblockers do.

5. So long as Google is involved in it, they are going to try to keep advertising profitable for themselves. So whatever "it's good for everyone" nonsense they are peddling its just them trying to prevent the public from shutting down the crappy internet advertising that most of us internet users have hated since it began.

6. It doesn't sound like they are working to prevent fingerprinting. That is the direction things should go imo; we need to get rid of all ability to identify visitors period. There is no reason why anyone needs to know what websites I visit or why, and I think there are plenty of people who agree with my desire in that regard.

7. I'm on the side of those calling to abandon Google and their nonsense. They can't be trusted any more.
Isn't this what `autocomplete="street-address"` is for? Admittedly, it's intended for text areas, but I'd argue that they're more useable in this situation.

> A street address. This can be multiple lines of text, and should fully identify the location of the address within its second administrative level (typically a city or town), but should not include the city name, ZIP or postal code, or country name.
All three of those developers started writing Mac software (or NeXT software, in Omni's case) in the 80's and 90's, before Xcode or the Apple Developer Program. The wider Mac developer community was hollowed out by the iPhone in the late 2000's-early 2010's and never really recovered. Who is starting a Mac-only software shop in 2021?
Tl;dr: dynamic linking results in calling code you didn't mean to.

One of many reasons that reliable systems use static linking.
That’s just false. In many places in Asia it’s considered a must to wear a mask when you’re sick, but nobody in Japan is wearing it 24/7. Not sure where you got this information from.
Fines going to the state in Germany is actually a problem imho. The damages you can expect for this are laughable, 40k is a typical payment to the family for wrongful death (cost of burial plus anguish). For video surveilance at the workplace you can expect a few hundred bucks at most, if the court even takes the case and doesn't dismiss it outright as minor.

If there were punitive damages awarded to the victims, a lot more illegal behaviour would be properly prosecuted. Officials like the state data protection officer are intentionally understaffed, so they only prosecute the most egregious problems. Private citizens and their attorneys could take up the slack if it were financially viable.
My current private laptop ist 7 years old and still running fine. It's some dell laptop and I suppose it will fall apart at some point but so far I don't see why I would replace it. I wouldn't mind it lasting another 10 years.

Same for mice. I'd certainly use a mouse for 10+ years if it's good enough. I've invested in a quite expensive ergonomic, mechanical keyboard and I have a very old mechanical cherry keyboard at work and I do expect them to last forever.

If you don't need the latest sh*t (touch bars and what not) you'll probably be fine with current characteristics of laptops for quite a few years.
The size of your rent and bills is largely in your hands. Too many people sell themselves into slavery for a nice car or big TV.
Did the Nokia 3310 have any hardware patents related to its release?
Great advice. I've also had a great experience with fast growing plants such as Limnobium Laevigatum and Sagittaria subulata in the mid/backgroud of nano aquariums. Limnobium being a floating plant is easy to remove, no trimming required. It shades the rest of the aquarium, inhibits algae growth and biofilm because it uses up nutrients and grows like crazy. Sagittaria throws runners everywhere and will eventually fill up your aquarium if left uncontrolled. I cut runners in the foreground every time I change the water to give the other slower plans (crypts and dwarf hairgrass) a chance to grow.

I've used HCC without CO2 but it's rather high maintenance and I don't want to cut shrimp while trimming the carpet. If it's not maintained regulary it it will peel off and start to float, creating a mess. Micranthemum tweediei "Monte Carlo" is probably a better carpeting plant choice than HCC for beginners. My other Iwagumi style aquarium that once had HCC now has a nice "carpet" of Cryptocoryne Parva after several years. It takes a lot of time to grow but it's quite beautiful once established.
I shared this link because the way the Wikipedia administrators are behaving is noteworthy. Actively and aggressively silencing others who cite mainstream reliable sources which point to an alternative hypothesis that, whatever its likelihood, is not really a conspiracy theory is a dangerous escalation in Wiki-lawyering and admin bullying in the name of "combatting misinformation" (I haven't edited the page, but the POV dispute led me to the talk page). In light of broader attempts to discredit and silence those who raise a lab-escape hypothesis, it's downright sinister.

As for your point about it being a trade-war tactic only goes so far when one realizes that Australia, which has China as its biggest trading partner, most vocally brought up the need for an investigation, and is being punished. Why would Australia start a trade war with its biggest customer?
I had three Windows Mobile devices and 5 J2ME devices and not a single one had app store. Why - there wasn't any mobile internet connectivity back then, the Java devices didn't even have wifi. Apps were loaded over USB, downloaded as JAR files. Apps were normally bought on eshops od vendors.

I have the similar feelings as the author when randomly dealing with tasks one by one. These feelings were gone when I grouped the tasks by some criteria firstly before dealing with them.
How one of the world’s fastest-growing startups burned through $300m
As an Italian person (also our life expectancy is really good on average) this hits home. An anecdotal example: I now live in Switzerland and my current doctor was shocked when I ask to get some blood analysis without being sick. He believed that I lied to my insurance company and hid some pre-existing condition.

In Italy, instead, it is pretty common that every couple of years you get a complete blood analysis just to see if everything is ok and whether you need to change something in your lifestyle.

Additionally, Sardinia (another "blue zone" with great life expectancy) also has a different diet compared to mainland Italy. Loads of seafood and relatively small amounts of livestock proteins.

In Germany, fines go to the general state or federal budget, not the police budget.

The only thing where there is a really obvious wrong incentive are parking violations, those go to the community, the community prosecutes and sets the local parking regs. So that, along with speeding tickets inside city limits (in parts), is a money-printing business for them.
You mean like web devs ship websites only tasted in latest Google Chrome? How Microsoft ships Windows tested only on a handful of hardware configs? How game devs ship games only tested on the latest graphics card?

The whole point of having standards, conventions and stable interfaces is that developers do not have to test their code on every "platform" (in this case browser). If there are platform-specific differences from the standards, that is the platform developer's problem.

And keep in mind we're mostly talking about individuals here - companies rarely develop extensions and those that do can probably afford an old mac to use as a complie box. Extensions are usually developed by individuals in their spare time and rely on beta testers anyways, as it is already impractical for one dev to test them on every possible config.
Thanks a lot Svennek. It makes a lot of sense what you are saying ... I have been getting some traction to my advert and I am also realising I need to learn to do at least basic stuff by myself.

I don't agree that there is anything worse than death.
To summarize, this is the most Apple of arguments, that you're making:

"You're holding it wrong."
> By restricting carbohydrate, the ketogenic diet minimises insulin, and so instead of accumulating fat, your body starts mobilising it.

By restricting carbohydrate to minimise insulin and start mobilising fat rather than accumulating it you are of course reducing the calories too.

Obesity is helped by many different things - hormones, gut biome, overly processed food etc - but mainly by too much food in relation too little exercise.
Continuing that line of reasoning, the overwhelming majority of people don't live in Europe either. They live in India, China, Africa, South America where free healthcare, unemployment, and education are not always available.
This looks cheap enough to be a literal "get out of jail free" card. If I have several hundred K in a cash account, does it make sense for me to buy a Trump pardon just in case I'm convicted of a crime while growing a startup?
Yes, that is exactly what I did:

I was not sure if I am allowed to put links into the initial post, so I did not add it.
This suffers from potential selection bias. Bodybuilders may be among those with the right hormones to do that while everyone else doesn't approach it or drops out eventually.

At least on Android, there is a local backup option although you need to manually pull it off the device.

I get what you're saying about chat/moderation tools. For some reason I limit my view of Signal to groups of people I actually know. I would personally never use it instead of something like Gitter or community-based chats. I fully agree various chat programs (mostly) each have their own niche.
> 2. Not everyone who codes is in the US, or a small number of other countries, where salaries for coders are high.

I don't have much stats, but this is true in countries that I know of: US, Switzerland, Germany, Poland, Ukraine, India

So I wouldn't expect other countries to be much different, it might depend on company you work for, if you stay in small < 10 people places, you won't get much salary as a coder.
It is. I really want to know what the hell is going on with their dev team.
I was hoping that it was about Tulpa. The pandemic had me look into nurturing a Tulpa again but I've avoided it for one or the other reason.
I can personally attest that having an imaginary world and friends is amazing. You can practice a conversation, tell jokes and bounce of ideas. The more you practice, the more distinct the voices become.
Interesting. Can you name large successful companies run as a democracy / cooperative? Apple, Google, Amazon etc. are clearly very hierarchical.
Some of us remember successfully saying "no" well before we became coders.

Even for supposedly low skill minimum wage jobs, finding reliable employees that show up on time, don't steal, don't get high at work, stick around and get things done, and otherwise aren't a pain in the ass to work with - can be a time sink and cost. Even the most selfish manager may tolerate some pushback and some "no"s if it means they don't have to go through all the work to hire someone "better" (which might require hiring and firing a lot of unknowns to arrive at, even if there's plenty of applicants.)

The vengeful and dysfunctional might fire you anyways, even if it's more work for them, if only to flex their power. The downsizing might not want to replace people. Life circumstances might mean you can't be reliable and are already on the fence (or - to put it another way - you might already be saying "no" to too much to say "no" to more without getting fired.)

So, sure, there are people without power. But - perhaps it's not quite as bad as jiggawatts is making it out to be either.
Additionally, a lot of people use a knife that is considerably too small for the task. I used to be one of them. It may look intimidating at first, but a bigger knife chops so much better!
Very interesting regarding a strong krittika. Do you offer readings?
