> Unionization is messing with the free market

Your conception of what "free market" means is wrong, and the thing you're imagining has never existed.

Anyway, here's a few other things that mess with "the free market" as much as unionization:

- Workplace safety laws

- Environmental protection laws

- Minimum wage laws

- Accounting regulations
> [1] Why aren't we all writing in APL/K/J if it matters that much?

Because most programmers aren't nearly as productive as we could be.

And because "concise" should be measure in the number of tokens needed to achieve certain functionality, not by excessive use of single character tokens.

> there is a single correct pronunciation in their native language

But see, that's the point. We're not speaking German when we use a borrowed word in English. It's no longer a purely German word, despite its origins, just as "xylophone" isn't a mispronounced Greek word, nor "Handy" a misused and miscapitalized English word.

That's not hubris, it's just descriptivism.
I did read your comments. And we do provide a wide array of view points. We are currently home schooling because of COVID. However, I will not reward a school district with government funding attached to my children if they are going to be a mouthpiece for political indoctrination. There is danger in allowing CRT to persist in schools. You are able to modulate the ideas for your children. But, the concern, as you have expressed, is that not all parents can do the same or have already drank the kool-aid. The majority of children being taught CRT are not going to be offered modulating ideas. I fear that 20 years down the road as these kids come into power we are in for a new flavor of racist policies driven by the divisive ideas of CRT.

I do agree that the best counter for bad ideas is talking about better ideas and comparing them. Which, to the point of the article, is the crux of critical thinking skills.

I'm not saying that my trek through public school was free of political indoctrination. DARE drug education was pervasive. There is a big difference between "drugs are bad mkay..." and "you're white so you are inherently racist".
Schools should teach children how to learn, then all else will fall in line.
Eero is cloud managed too. And reports MAC addresses and network usage to Amazon.
Because in order to be democratic, an election has to be fair, free and secret. That's why I am always a little bit disturbed with signed ballots for example. I never signed a paper ballot in my whole life. Or any other ballot as far as that is concerned.

Cameras would limit the secret part.
I don't know if anyone else took like 3 paragraphs to realize this, but point is Volkswagen is is changing their name to Voltswagen -- as in VOLTS wagon - as in electricity.

I hate to admit this but I somehow couldn't see the change until I got to this quote:

“We might be changing out our K for a T, but what we aren't changing is this brand’s commitment to making best-in-class vehicles for drivers and people everywhere,” said Scott Keogh, president and CEO of Voltswagen of America.

Also, apparently not an early April Fool's joke: they confirmed the name change to Car and Driver: https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a35970854/vw-name-change-v...
OK, changed again!
Does retainer mean less than my full salary? If so, I don't see why I would plan to take a pay cut on-purpose. What's the upside here? Do I also lose benefits during that down time?
There are plenty of SBCs with AES support.
Speaking totally anecdotally here, but one of the big benefits I see in the DMCA system is the ability for individuals to have an easy, free way to deal with any copyright infringement. I have a few friends who create art as a hobby, and they have been able to deal with people or companies who illegally re-upload their art for monetary benefit (such as merchandise).

Obviously the system isn't perfect (and there are absolutely better solutions), but it does have its merits.
Legacy code is a living organism with Michael Feathers
This is exactly the problem that I'm getting at. The reason your font is getting smaller with higher pixel densities is because the font size is being tied to the pixel density.

In a better native world, your font size would be completely unrelated from the monitor(s) you're using. It is the attempt to tie font sizes to physical attributes of your monitors like their resolution that is giving you this problem. And it is the need for scaling to be based on resolution that makes multi-resolution monitor setups break.

There's no reason why your OS couldn't size text differently on each monitor based on monitor-specific settings that you control, and there's no reason why the applications you're using couldn't implement responsive design and accommodate that setup.

As designers we would just need to embrace responsive design and stop trying to control everything.
Probably something like this: https://christopherrufo.com/woke-elementary/

A lot of examples on that site.
There's always a degree of indictrination, it's just about where one draws the line.

I was taught racism is bad, and in the literal sense that is an opinion, its just one that our society takes for granted now.
I'm sorry, but you seem to be under some misconceptions about how pixel sizing works on the web.

> resolution independent font-size and container sizing should be the default

It already is. CSS "px" doesn't refer to physical pixels at all, they're called logical pixels. Which on old screens at 100% zoom may map 1:1, but these days are more likely to map 2:1 or even 3:1, and with OS and browser zoom levels may be things like 1.666:1 or 2.5:1.

> Size your fonts with `em` and `rem` units

In the browser, em/rem are necessarily defined by a parent/root element that is ultimately defined in either px or pt, so your suggestion doesn't achieve what you think it achieves.

Today, whether you write your CSS in "em" or "px" results in an identical user experience. It's really just whether you prefer to work with a baseline of something like "16px" and use larger round integers (8px, 1000px, etc.) or prefer to work with something like a baseline of "1em" and use small numbers with lots of decimals (0.5rem, 30rem, 0.05rem).

Ultimately we need some measure of consistency, and browsers have long defined that as a default legible body text size of 16 px = 12 pt (= 1 em by default).

Honestly? I have no idea why they might do this. It's not supported on my Oasis either.

The best I can come up with is pretty conspiracy-theory-ish: They're moving towards removing the ability for you to load open formats onto the Kindle directly (i.e. without going through their mail system or kindle-store purchases).
I live in Denmark where the first 10k USD capital gain is in a lower tax bracket.

And there is a scheme with yearly taxation of unrealized gains, but at a much lower rate. However, it has a per-person cap around 16k USD.
I feel for you my friend.

From my experience, having young kids is a very difficult time for relationships. Couple that with all the challenges around the pandemic and other current craziness, and things get even tougher.

From my experience also, as your child gets older that part of the stress tends to settle down and things feel better and relationships do generally improve.

Having said that, I'm a big fan of couples' counseling, which I think all couples can benefit from, regardless of the state of their relationship. IMHO, the ability to communicate is of primary importance, and it's not something that we're just born knowing how to do. One huge benefit from couples counseling is learning open communication with kindness.

Here's hoping things get better soon. Take care of yourselves!

The internet has two things World Weekly News doesn't though - scale, and very sophisticated targeting.

A lot of the misinformation in 2016 came from scammers in (I think) Madagascar driving traffic to adfarm blogs with nonsense via FB. They leveraged FB's engagement algorithms to spread viral misinformation to drive traffic. They tried lies targeting the left and the right, but the lies targeting the right spread more easily so they focused attention there.

FB's engagement algorithms leverage confirmation bias in an attempt to spread things the most. I don't think they set out to do this necessarily, but if you measure viral spread and optimize for it - this is what you get.

With political ads, focused targeting at scale is a new type of very effective manipulation that's had a large amount of intellectual capital poured into it. I think it's worth special consideration when considering its effect/risk.

Nobody said you "need" REPL. Doing REPL driven programming is just more productive, hence it is considered the right way in the Clojure community. Heck, you don't even "need" any higher level languages, you can write code in machine code, but that's besides the point.

Your boast about your Lisp credentials is exactly the kind of things I caution against in the article. Your pride has prevented you from properly learning Clojure, which has a very different programming style from other Lisps.

You are basically illustrating my point live, again.

I'm sorry if it sounded like Boskalis "saved the day". I was trying to make the point that his is not a random internet person commenting on stuff. Not trying to imply that he's the one running the entire operation.
It’s increasingly hard to find providers that don’t though. The advantages to global management software is pretty high & the easiest way to implement that is the cloud.
You're more at peace with the situation than I would be. I have an angry reaction to the idea that my children are being politically indoctrinated in such an obvious way - especially with such a shaky and activist foundation.
That title is misleading -- coups makes sense, mostly, but a clearer title would be "Leah R revokes all access to LibreBoot code and infrastructure".

This is concerning to me, though, as I have a laptop with Libreboot, mostly to mess around with firmware and low-level stuff, and I'm now worried that some disgruntled owner would insert, out of malice or oversight, something that would mess things up a bunch.
To me, that's similar to waiting to save your Word document until you have finished editing your document.

REPL should be used for rapid experimentation, but then the code should be transferred to a source file and saved before moving on to the next thing.
Wow, that's awful.

I have a few Ubiquiti devices I haven't updated in months, that don't use any cloud accounts, and I used to run their controller software in a container that I only started when I needed to administer something. But now I guess I'm never updating and will be looking to get rid of all their equipment.

What an incredibly consumer hostile and incompetent company. Shame, because the hardware pretty much works reliably.

For AWS root account?

Generate a long random password, print it out and then lock it in a safe without allowing anyone to see it.

Turn on 2FA and then lock the second factor in a different safe.

There’s virtually never a need for the root account and it’s impossible to attenuate (by design).
Yes, but you don't need to keep that record. Unless, of course, voting is mandatory.
That's how I run it, but it seems they are now pushing ads to local controllers and between this and deprecating recently released devices, I just completely lost trust in them.
You can buy Apple SoCs in bulk if you know where to look.

Same goes for touchid and faceid sensors you may have issues with the Apple “genuine hardware” checks so some features would not work but most repair shops have the reset toolkit already which somewhat bypasses that.

Patents protect someone from copying your invention, these parts come from the same suppliers but are manufactured during ghost shifts, skimmed from the main shifts or are rejects that failed to meet Apple’s standards but are still mostly functional (it’s also not uncommon to mark functioning parts as rejects to skim off the top).

I don’t think people realize just how fishy the supply chain in China is even for big players.

What I was getting at is that the whole field of electronics would not even exist without science. No computers, no phones, maybe a tiny bit of electricity... Pretty much our whole standard of living exists due to advances in science. If people don't recognize and respect this, they should not enjoy their current living standards --- i.e. not having phones.

I suspect/hope they'd reconsider their thoughts.
Bitcoin is a proof of concept that got too big. For what it demonstrated it's an innovative work-around for sybil attacks. For how it exists now, it's a nightmare technology. It can't store value longer than a few days (unless you convince yourself BTC IS the stablecoin), the transaction rate is pathetic and requires really stupid technologies layered on top to make it "go," and lastly (and most importantly) the energy waste is immense just to keep track of a fucking ledger. It can't even be used as a distributed computing platform. Yawn.

If you're going to go long on something, at least go long on sybil-prevention that doesn't wreak havoc on the environment and can be used for general computation.
Global UI? You mean, AWS-hosted configurator for your network? We just had example of it being security risk. God save Mikrotik from implementing something similar.
Btw, how do Germans generally pronounce "volt"? Folt? 230 fau? Or is it like wolt and we?

There aren't a lot of flops at all in the RPi GPU, though. They probably want some sort of Neural Network inference engine, both because it is easy enough and makes for good educational content.
Is there a mainstream social media platform that still supports a chronological order? Twitter is the closest one but as far as I know they still periodically reset the feed to the algorithmic one, overriding your previous decision.
No, because TS hints should also be able to translate to runtime savings.

I do find the messaging to be confusing, because what would you think I meant if I talked about the runtime of Elixir or Scala?

This is the marketing line on the front page of the Deno project:

> A secure runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript.

They are using the same term "runtime" to describe JS as well as TS. All replies here by Deno team members use the language "Typescript support" but nobody here is saying TypeScript runtime.
I was looking into doing ARM or RISC-V but didn't want to get distracted from finishing the series with one architecture first. But here I am, series unfinished anyway...

It doesn't seem to me the problem is with the demographic trend of Facebook users so much as Facebook executives, including and especially Mark Zuckerberg, willfully choosing to ignore the misinformation simply because doing so would negatively affect their bottom line.
People have reported cloud login can't be disabled now.
No, for that you'll have to move to the Caymans.
No, TP-Link's Omada controller can be run locally, I do that at home and at my parents' house. It is not cloud-connected unless you turn that on. Runs surprisingly well on a Raspberry Pi 2, actually.

I've got a setup similar to what you're asking for. The TP-Link APs (AC1750, AC1350 and AC1200) support PoE, they're in a wireless mesh, support roaming, and all configuration is handled with one interface, no cloud involved.

Just make sure that what you're ordering says it supports Omada. They still ship a lot of SMB gear that doesn't, but all the basics are there now.
That's your right, but it's a pretty useless comment.

New kindle oasis, downloaded as much of my library as I could. Once downloaded, I pulled it off power (not realizing there was an indexing process). Battery goes dry, internet searches reveal the indexing process occurs with a download.

Even now the Oasis can't stand up to a long-ish book's worth of reading if the network's on.
Cheese developed as a way to preserve calories such that they last a long time (also, is already effectively mold). If you don't mind a bit of continued growth, it can be stable for a long time.

It's not meta analysis. Also, the effect size is rather large. What basis do you see for doubting how well the study was done?
No, I assumed they'd just store your "points" in a Users table in a relational database, plus a "transactions" table somewhere for history.

Phew, for a second there I was worried both the right AND the left had lunatic conspiracy theorists. Relieved to find it's only one side and that the far-left, if it even exists at all, is both totally normal and not even on social media.

Sure they do, for the same reason that I store all the mp3s of the music I buy. If it's not on storage you control, you didn't buy it, you're renting it.
Not necessarily. It's suggested as a way to maintain the typing decision the original parent made, but which itself is undesirable. The pattern can be changed to,

func main() {
var c Compressor // signal do nothing
DoCompress(c)
c = &GZipComprosser{} // normal call
DoCompress(c)
}
Except when you cannot: with spaces too big, such as strategies and games, or too rarified to be sampled. Or ones where generating completely new output is required, such as music and writing.

> It's strange that there's so much resistance.

I can think of two plausible, good reasons for resisting these measures:

1. It's in Amazon's best interest to delay the vote as much as they can. More security edicts from Amazon means more delays, which means that Amazon can spend more time blasting both the public and their own employees with anti-union messaging.

2. Security demands from Amazon are a chilling force on the independence of the union. The union already has voting rules and mechanisms; kowtowing to Amazon makes them appear weak and establishes a precedent for future union body decisions.

I think the first reason is stronger than the second, but that both are perfectly sufficient and acceptable objections to Amazon's demands, particularly in light of their established delay tactics. Absent of any evidence to the contrary, there's no reason to believe that the union and NLRB are incapable of holding a fair election on their own terms.
I am extremely relieved none of our Ubiquiti devices are set up for this cloud shit. (We use the PtP stuff, not the APs, the cloud bits are optional there.)

Then again we have a "clear skies" policy & wouldn't have bought anything that requires cloud blah. (Which covers a whole bunch of other vendors too, looking at you Cisco "SmartLicense")
She missed that one, apparently.
We can't even get the NSA, an agency of our own government, to meaningfully contribute to cyberdefense, because they're too focused on offense. (See TFA)

Yes, completely correct, and it's good that you pointed that out.

However, you also shouldn't be sizing fonts based on 1/96th of an inch units. That will also break responsive design in many cases. Not all of them, like you said there are legitimate use-cases, but most of the time you should not be trying to make a font be a specific physical size.
