I did not know you could get low profile keys. That's interesting and I'll look into that. Why aren't they the default though?

But even with everything you say, I still don't see the point. You'd have to find specific switches and keys (which will probably be more difficult to find and more expensive) just to end up with something that roughly matches a rubber dome keyboard.

And yeah, I admit they look cooler overall. And they have a more "hacker" vibe to them which I can appreciate. But again I still can't think why I'd spend all that extra money/effort on something that struggles to match a normal keyboard for typing.

And yeah, when I'm coding I hardly type, I spend most of the time thinking. But I still do a lot of typing in general. Writing online comments, group IM chats, searching stuff on the internet, typing commands into a terminal. And whenever I've tried any of that on a mechanical keyboard, it just feels like my typing speed is unnecessarily slowed down. I get irritated by the latency in the same way I get irritated waiting for a website to load all it's useless extra js scripts that will have no effect on the bit of text I want to read.
Today's schedule for following the Perseverance Landing on Mars
Sounds like in your case it worked out, but I would consider AWS to be an insane outlier...also from a company still founder-led (Bezos is an exec with proven startup success--hence why Amazon exists in the first place!).

I think the point of the author is that, inside a big company, the fundamental risk/reward incentives that drive startup innovation are removed. Autonomy alone doesn't drive people to make crazy decisions. Risk/reward incentives do.

Google is never going to say to one of their internal employees:

"We're cutting your salary to $50k/yr, but you get 80% ownership of the business you create if you succeed. But there's a 95% chance you won't. And if you don't succeed you're fired. Good luck!"

That's the equivalent environment needed if you want to mimic the human decisions and behavior that drive innovation inside startups.
Honestly, it's not that complicated to set up a L2TP or VPN tunnel to a server with routable inbound IP traffic.

Most people who would know how to set up port forwarding could probably set it up. I think even some routers support it built in now.
What country is this? While I'd like to see consumer debt reigned in a bit, I think not being able to borrow at all for cars is a bit extreme. What happens if you need to buy a car in order to accept a particular job? (If the idea of being a polluting commuter offends you, then consider other job-related items such as office equipment or tools).
>I am the cofounder of Coin Metrics, a data business that licenses crypto market data to financial institutions, asset managers, and banks

Oh, so his credentials are "my company depends on crypto and if it fails we fail". And he's saying "oh these exchanges arent legit by our metrics we wont count them". That's the exactly the problem and he's saying "put on a blindfold and its gone".
Making cracktro for a Game Boy game – Quartet intro
High end fibre routers use multi-spectral bandwith, effectively allowing for multiple data streams to be transmitted on one fibre cable, and re-broken out at the other end. This significantly increases bandwidth.

I doubt the laser links support this, and I wonder if any could, when in a non-encapsulated environment. EG, spectral pollution from sunlight/etc.
What's probably going to happen, however, is that small times bloggers will take over the news scene in Facebook. It won't bother me, since major news outlet have become crap already.

No idea why the Starlink website won't recognise the short Plus Code, especially when it shortens the full code if I put that in :P. Your area code is "9C9J", making your full code "9C9JJQX3+84".

As an aside, plus codes should be wonderful things but the tooling isn't particularly well built out -- this is the first application I've seen using them that's not Google Maps, and it's not worked as well as I'd hoped it would :(. In this case, the geocoder for the area hasn't done what it ought to have done. And I fear that while the full codes don't need a geocoder, short codes might be generally susceptible to incompatible geocoders leading to incompatibilities between implementations. Which is what we seem to be seeing here.

One of them is a authoritarian regime where the press is controlled by the state and the others are a collection of countries with some of the highest democracy ratings in the world, by most scales, including for freedom of the press.
I still use CRT... or rather, used. My CRT died too weeks ago and now I am using an LCD screen... I am missing my CRT :(

The quality of the LCD is super poor, and it causes more eyestrain than the CRT "radiation" ever did, often I am squinting, or shifting on my chair, to see if the LCD colour shift will make seeing stuff easier.
Git Subtree Basics
FYI, using the NYTimes mobile app should follow the same flow described in the parent comment. I'm in NY state. Just choose the "web form" option to cancel, click through two or three confirmations to cancel. And you're done. Took all of 20 seconds.
It should just ask for your Apple ID password when you do the reset. It’s not that hard. Honestly it should even be an option within the main OS
Video demo of Unreal Engine’s MetaHuman facial rig
I strongly disagree with your opinion. For economic reason, i'm using (and supporting many users from my neighborhood of) second-hand hardware. Some systems like Apple's make our life incredibly difficult and most times people will just have to pay a shady phone store to have the device they purchased unlocked, adding 20-30€ to the bill.

It's important to note that most people are incredibly gullible when it comes to technology, and they won't hesitate to buy a second-hand iPhone (whether stolen or not) for a few bucks assuming they'll be able to use it, because that's what a phone does, only to find themselves trapped in iCloud lock.

Locking devices does not protect users (contrary to encrypting the local storage), and does not deter anyone from stealing. It simply adds one layer of mafia to deal with (iCloud unlock shady companies) when you're just trying to find a second-hand phone.
The unlink stage would require your password. The recovery partition requires internet to reinstall already.
>Letting companies redefine the rights of their customers seems bizarre to me.

I'm sure it's obvious by now but perhaps it's worth restating:

Those companies have large budgets for contributing to elected officials' campaigns. The individual consumers negatively affected by these practices can't band together as efficiently as the large business on the other side of the abusive behavior.

As long as enough elected officials entertain these businesses in visits, allow them to help write legislation, and accept contributions from them, it won't change.

Also, executive agencies have to put out proposals for new rule making and allow a period of public comment. The business in the sector have entire staffs and/or contract with firms whose job it is to watch these publications and craft intelligent responses backed up by fudged data to "prove" how "damaging" these policies would be to the industry.

The individuals who respond are mostly retired people/activist citizens who can only say "this is a bad idea and I don't like it at all."
What's the actual upload speed in good conditions?
Nah, those people just needed an excuse, they were already past the tipping point. They exist on both sides and one side got called out for attacking the capitol while the other is "mostly peaceful protests" because they are only destroying police and private property.

As in, both sides are equally bad for similar but different reasons but we only hear about a singular event that some whack jobs on the far right pulled off. Compare to my local media as an example which buried the story about the violence around a "citizen" road block until a seven year old was murdered as her family tried to go past. Even then it was buried with stories of police violence or right wing threats.

No, those of us who lean to the right know the nut jobs and there that line begins but there where that line is for my left leaning friends is beyond me to understand.
In the USA it's apparently common, but seems unusual everywhere else. In the UK, 5 years is the maximum and 2 years is more common. People rely on rolling over the mortgage to a new fixed-rate offer, but that can be problematic as it's not guaranteed that good offers will be available after the fixed term, and as many found out in 2009, it's not guaranteed that fixed rate mortgages will be available at all. Also it costs a ton of money and time to roll over the mortgage because you're essentially buying the house all over again.
Also not an American, but the US left has a lot of controversial views that are nothing to do with the things you've listed. Surely you've heard of some?
You have to be aware of their biases, though.

If I recall correctly both predict the collapse of France, like clockwork, every few years (especially because French policies are slightly more socialist and both publications are super business).

And of course, both look down on non-Anglosphere countries, in general :-)
I know this is not what the article is talking about, but there have been some success stories of companies incubating startups. An obvious example is Tinder, incubated at IAC.

So your solution is basically to throw various standards overboard so that spammers cannot generate more urls than there are images on a specific domain. Isn't this cure worse than the (at this point mostly hypothetical) disease?
Super interesting. Would you mind sharing more about it?
But is WSB an issue?
MacOS upgrades are often heavily breaking stuff. So developers will have to release new versions of their software fixing various bugs or be compliant with some new demand from MacOS for running. This often also leads to the new versions not being compatible with older OS versions or at least not being maintained. So as a user you're often forced to upgrade the OS if you want to use the newest versions of various software.

Every MacOS update is a minefield. We have a dedicated Slack channel at work where people discuss if they dare to upgrade yet, and share which software now is breaking on their computers, warning others to wait.
Your proposition was allowing third party store, but in the end letting Apple choose what is good or not. I'm just saying it's risky and we already have tools to decide what is good or not. A private company in full control of rules & implementation doesn't sounds like an efficient way to open a market.

That was not about forcing stores to list everything - might be an idea when there is a monopoly. Don't know if this situation exists, that's a different topic.
Anecdote: I switched from my old ergonomic Microsoft mechanical keyboard to the Varmilo VA87M[0]. It's not ergonomic, but man, is this a great keyboard. My problem with ergonomic keyboards is how wide they are. I have to move my had too far to get to the mouse. This little keyboard, with a good palm rest, has been fantastic. The travel distance isn't anywhere near what it was on my old mechanical Microsoft keyboard, so that's much improved with more modern keyboards. Anyway, I was very skeptical of the Varmilo, since it's not ergonomic, but it's been excellent, and my wrist pain has gone away.

> Imagine for example that China refuses to trade in USD, demanding payment in physical gold for all the goods manufactured there

Lets imagine. All of a sudden, China has decided that USD SWIFT payments are no longer acceptable, and requires all exports to be settled in physical gold.

Suddenly, the vast majority of consumers are no longer able to buy goods from China, as the vast majority of consumers do not posses physical gold. Those that do, do not have gold in small denominations, and now costs have to round up to whatever denominations of gold that one has. How do you buy things with $400 sovereigns and $1800 kugerands and still make change?

So instead, we now rely on the banking industry to magically transport this problem away. We still pay USD, and it's transparently converted to AU for you in the background. The banks pool enough transactions together, and do T+2 settlement. Except due to the trade deficit, outflows are going to be significantly higher than inflows, and the vendors would rather have the physical gold delivered before issueing the products, given that massive trade deficit.

So now the banks need to arrange for regular, and large transports of physical gold. They also need to do this securely, since gold is a tempting target for theives. Shipping by air is too expensive, and few people will be willing to face transaction fees that high, so then it returns to sea freight, which is slow. Suddenly T+2 settlement becomes T+50.

So now you're waiting 50 days for your $5 payment to clear, before goods ship, which take another 2-5 weeks depending on shipping method.

Or you'd just buy from someone else, who's willing to settle in cash.
It's not that bad to be honest, in Europe where I live they are basically asking me a affidavit letter to be able to cancel official things,
Thanks! I just came across this website a few hours ago!
Hi, Mark here, founder and tech lead at Tripetto. We're so excited to release our calculator for Tripetto today

Maybe you already know Tripetto is all about building awesome conversational forms. That's cool of course, but one thing our users kept asking for was a way to do calculations in their forms. For example to create quizzes, order forms, exams and much more. And we couldn't agree more with them, so we took a deep dive into the calculations world

If you already know us, you may have noticed that at Tripetto we often do things quite differently than other form tools We always try to think a few steps ahead instead of just adding a simple feature. For the calculator that resulted in way more possibilities than just being able to add, subtract, multiply and divide. Of course those are easily possible, but there's so much more to let you make hypersmart calculations:

- All calculations possible (add, subtract, multiply and divide)

- Respondent driven, use given answers of respondents for inputs, scores and comparisons

- Instant usage of built-in mathematical functions and constants, like (co)sinus, radians, π, %

- Easy calculations with dates and ages

- Subcalculations for multistep formulas

- Multiple calculators per form, in fact as many calculations as you need

- All our logic features just love calculations

- 100% no-code of course

This makes Tripetto's calculator next-level compared to others out there.

There isn't a big market where people pay for luxury goods with Crypto. This is going to raise eyebrows. As much as the crypto landscape is the wild west, banking on/off crypto is incredibly hard.
I'm not so sure I agree. What happens when something better comes along? I don't trust Congress to know what's happening in technology today, let alone to keep legislation up-to-date with technical innovation.
fecak's reply is the best answer. In particular this quote:

>As I mentioned in another comment, you can also use a summary to define yourself. If you're applying for product owner jobs, you define yourself as a product owner with skills in web dev and ML. If you're applying for a web dev job, you define yourself as a web dev with skills in ML and product.

This is great advice. Make sure you still include all the roles in your CV to illustrate a consistent period of employment. Just highlight the aspects of each role that are most relevant to the position you are applying for. If a previous role is barely relevant, just summarize the experience in a couple of sentences.

The point is to make most of your CV relevant to the role. Dont make the employer hunt through your CV for relevant experience. Most people will make a snap judgement within a minute or two of scanning your CV. Make it easy for them.

I also think a summary is very important. Sum up your best points with some dot points at the top of your CV.
By downvoting their comments obviously. That will surely convince them.

> Seems shortsighted to end this mission after 30 days.

At this point, NASA is getting rather famous for this. Opportunity had a 90 day mission that survived for nearly fifteen years. Curiosity, a much bigger and more complicated machine, is still doing science 8.5 years later.
Why, though? Physical access to the hardware should prevent you from accessing existing files (encryption at rest) but should not prevent you from resetting/reusing the device.

Does your fridge come with FridgeID? Or a book? Introducing such mechanisms is really hostile to users, especially poorer users of second-hand hardware who have to go through extra (shady) hoops to get a device running just because some rich Silicon Valley start-uppers thought locking hardware down was a feature.

The problem isn't unique to the US. We.are the worst, but the UK isn't much better, and even France has issues to work on. Spain has great construction, but their opperations are questionable. Assian countries also have variations. There is no reason India should be so expensive to build in.
I agree that disk management of M1 Macs is poorly documented, but the author's issue appears to stem from:

> Nope, this don’t work as I suspected… so, let’s check online, Apple suggests a long procedure and a short by typing “resetpassword” in terminal, that was a chance but since it founds no users, there’s no passwords to reset.

"resetpassword" opens Recovery Assistant. Recovery Assistant is primarily intended to provide a "forgot password" flow, which is why it wants to identify a user. However, in the app menu bar, there is an option called "Erase Mac." That is how you do a full secure erase of an M1 Mac. It will work without any user, and even without any OS install at all. (I have tested this myself by erasing a machine multiple times without reinstalling the OS.)
Has anyone else tried to use some of these scanned archives?

I'm researching a historical book in my spare time, and every online scanned book I've tried to use, from multiple projects, has included at least one pair of missing pages where they've presumably turned two at once.

I really hope people aren't expecting these archives to be definitive or a replacement in case the books are lost.
I live in the Netherlands, almost every place is accessible by either public transport of bike or (usually) a combination of both, no real need for a car. If you do really need it I'm sure parents are there, a small, ok car can be had for under 1000, right?

If you still live at home you can buy it from your first wage. Otherwise it may take a bit longer. Government advices people to have a buffer of at least 5000 so you can have you washing machine fixed or get a new furnace (the thing that heats your house) and fix other house related issues (or your car). Most people I know try to maintain that buffer.
Musk has quite a bit of money invested in China, so it will be more interesting what he does when China wants to integrate Starlink into the great firewall.
That is true, if you restrict yourself to only reorder and execute in parallel, you can probably optimize for number of instructions. That is just not particular interesting as you miss many optimizations, and you certainly cannot find the optimal optimization.
Those presentations to the higher levels didn’t really happen because the corporate structure was very flat. Also, I would not expect those to take up all that much time.

You may have worked at a lot of places, but your experience is still only a tiny slice of the different shops out there. My experience is likewise limited, and I acknowledge that such light touch management is probably very rare, but it can and does work.

You said she was a team lead not a real manager, which does have some truth to it, but it’s not like there was someone doing the “real” management work to pick up the slack for her. In the right environment that stuff simply isn’t needed.

I went down this rabbithole not long ago with the rovers on-board computer. The writeup from the people who designed the system was really approachable for someone without any aerospace experience. There's a lot of challenges and tradeoffs involved.

Some takeaways:

> Constrained CPU: 133MHz PowerPC, 128MB RAM, 4GB storage

> Software written in C, OS is VxWorks

> Only get contact a few times a day, rover must be charged and ready each time regardless of uncompleted tasks. Scheduling is hard.

> Some tasks require parts preheated for X time, which depends on ambient temp, they use a lookup table for the time of day instead of measuring the temp directly. (Assume this is for reliability purposes)

> High level activities are constructed in a GUI by the operations team, low-level tasks are written in XML, both are uploaded to the rover as a binary plan file.

It's a good read, do recommend it.

Let's see how well it copes with more users. My guess is it won't cope well. There is only 20gig/sec of capacity per satelite, and I believe that is raw speed, which will get hammered in poor weather conditions and more FEC or less efficient QAM is required.

20gig/sec is not a lot of capacity for many thousands of square kms. It's 1-2k users at peak times watching Netflix for example on 1080p or 4K streams, nevermind everything else. It is probably not far off many DOCSIS CMTS allocations, which get horrendously overloaded being only a few city blocks.

My guess is after beta they will get rid of the unlimited aspect pretty sharpish, and probably introduce aggressive traffic shaping.

It is likely to work very well in very rural areas with no major cities or towns in line of sight of the satelite. However, for suburbs/exurbs close to cities and towns which have poor internet I think the experience will be pretty poor once it has more customers (especially in Europe. There are basically no truly remote areas).
Yes, this. I know they do with Videotron.
