Do you mean you are the author of that book or an author in general?
Yeah, my first thought too (well, I guess pretty much everyone's). This seems like "tmux, but less" since tmux is much more than a window manager, and tmux is absolutely not some esoteric software: even if you don't use tmux, you probably know, that if this is something you'd want, you'll install tmux. So, what's the point? Codebase being smaller? I absolutely don't care about the codebase of something I'm not writing myself.
> If the w3c somehow forced users to jump through hoops to allow google to advertise to them

Why would users need to jump through any hoops to make advertising works? Users will do literally nothing.

You are under false impression that not implementing FPS will somehow prevent advertising from working. No, it won't.

> Because we are having some definitional issues around the basics of how gmail and youtube function in terms of revenue models and user engagement

No idea what you mean by this statement.

The only reason Google wants FPS is to have an easier way to continue tracking users across its properties. It already does that now without FPS, and, surprising no one except you, it doesn't hurt its advertising business in the least. They brought in 147 billion dollars in revenue from ads in 2020. That's 80% of Google's total revenue.

Google and Google's free services will be just fine without FPS.

What does a server seeing the address have to do with the app seeing the address directly from the OS? The app knows the address it needs to talk to, so it preps the message and then calls an OS provided method to make that call. The OS method then returns the response. The app never needs to know the IP address of the device on which it is running.

these exist. ghb, methqualone, barbiturates, and benzodiazepines all have a similar mechanism of action, cross-tolerance, and similar withdrawal syndromes, but fewer side-effects than alcohol. alcohol withdrawal is often treated with benzodiazepines.

they are all heavily controlled, and benzodiazepines are considered some of the most damaging and addictive substances of abuse.

I smoked for years and the public health campaigns had no positive effect on me or anybody I know. I actually developed a certain level of contempt for how much they manipulated the statistics, and generally took a non-evidence based approach to their regulation. The primary piece of government intervention that got me to quit was taxing the hell out of it. As much as I don’t like the government presuming it can make risk decisions regarding how I choose to live my own life, I like paying it taxes even less. My personal motivations were firstly avoiding the nuisance of dealing with the odor, and secondly the health impacts. I also expect that all the advertising restrictions has likely had an impact, but that didn’t personally influence me at all.
Because passive does not necessarily mean index. You can be passive and concentrated (see ARKK). And more importantly real world indices are moving target to begin with. They’re just very rough approximation of market basket. SPX is not representative of market as it relates to mpt at all. In fact that’s likely one of the biggest myths in modern finance.

Looking at the data from the related women dominated profession of teacher, the answer is very much that it isn't welcome to men. "culture fit" as they call it.

An old theory to explain this is the impact that being a minority has on the individual. Any difficult and advanced education is going to cause ups and down, and each road block will natural trigger self doubt. Being a minority makes that doubt stronger and increases that risk that the individual will abandon their chosen path. Similar being in a strong majority demographic will lower the self doubt and associated risk.

Multiply that risk for 4 years of studying and then a few years in profession, and the minority demographic will look like a leaking pipe. If you ask those who choose to leave the profession, the answers will have a large percentage saying that they did not feel like they fitted in.

In addition, industries that are dominated with men tend to focus progression on a career path with a steady amount of raises, while industries that a dominated by women tend to focus progression on privileges and status positions within the organization. A miss match of those expectation may also lead to people not feeling appreciated for their contributions and end up quieting the profession.

Nope, you're moving the goalposts now. The grandparent claimed that active investing is not a good choice for _anybody_. So a single example like RenTech is sufficient to disprove that claim.
It's not a 'strategy' really. Most regular Joe investors earn a salary every month, and keep spare money invested in the market. DCA isn't a choice in this case, it's the natural result.

depends what you mean by a lot of people. r/churning is a relatively large sub (~282k members), and that's dedicated to a fairly aggressive form of the game.

as to whether it's worth it, depends how you value your time. I'm a fairly modest spender; I get about $150 in cashback rewards and $200+ from signup bonuses each year. I don't travel much, so it would be hard for me to break even on any points card with an annual fee. not a huge chunk of change, but a decent return on ~2 hours spent each year with an excel spreadsheet. there's not much month-to-month overhead if you use autopay and something like personal capital to track your finances.

It can be generated more or less anywhere along the path. I don't think it was typically generated at the caller's local switching station, because often there's some delay before it starts, and I didn't think that level of information was communicated. However, sometimes you would get some ringing and before a final signal tone (busy, fast busy, call cannot be completed as dialed, etc).

With MMOs you can actually reverse engineer the network protocol and build yourself a custom client. Completely avoids any anti-cheating solution since they're not even running.

With mobile games it's ridiculously easy. I actually made daily task farming bots for a couple mobile games I used to play. The hardest part was getting the bot to log into the game.

I feel the "PM as CEO of the product" (aka, Product Owner) paradimng is completely wrong. PMs become very political fast, and often don't have qualms to undermine other parts/products of the company in order to advance their own.

Since often they are not the ones doing the hiring of engineers, they really don't care/have no qualms of the long term engineering needs (both personel/morale, and architecture). True company CEOs have to think about engineering personal needs all the time as recruiting is hard. PM/PO just don't care as they don't have to deal with true consequences of their decissions on the people that actually get the work done. I have seen narcistic PMs completely destroy team morales, and have engineers after engineers jus transfer out their teams.

Also, Google PMs have earned a 'toxic' reputation in the industry. They are just too political. Might be ok for a large company, but they can be poison to smaller ones.
> Alcoholism has a definition, which revolves around dependence.

Not... really.

The problem here is that the term "alcoholism" is a colloquialism, not a technical term. Neither the DSM nor ICD uses it. So I suppose it can mean whatever you want, but it would be good for the common usage of the term to be useful in some way, and indeed it is in this case. In everyday language, the term alcoholism overwhelmingly connotes problem drinking. I'm quite steeped in the culture for personal reasons, and I've never in my entire life heard anyone use the word "alcoholism" to refer to completely harmless and controlled consumption.

> contrary to your own "they're the same" from two posts earlier

No, I asserted that alcoholism, in its everyday colloquial sense, connotes abuse. I definitely do not assert the same regarding the notion of "dependence", which does have a widely used technical definition.

If it's dependence that we're debating, I'll argue that mere dependence on alcohol should not qualify it for the "alcoholism" label in the common pejorative sense. If you disagree, then I really am curious why you would not likewise label daily coffee drinkers with "caffeinism"?

In the other direction, I assert that any regular, pathological pattern of consumption indicates a degree of dependence, but I recognize that there's some semantic debate there.

> You're using "pathology" in a very idiosyncratic way, almost opposite to its real meaning. To a clinician, social effects are not pathology.

We're not talking about oncology here. Alcoholism is not diagnosed, treated, studied, or managed quite like a medical condition such as cancer or diabetes. Outside the world of medical doctors, the term "pathology" is usually truer to its greek root "pathos". "Pathologic behaviour", "pathological gambling", etc.

For what it's worth, the DSM and ICD largely classify mental disorders based on behavioural evidence. This is certainly true for alcohol dependence and abuse (DSM-IV) and alcohol use disorder (DSM-V).

Really? Because this is what the (grand)parent said:

Clearly grandparent was not talking solely about the average investor.
Yeah I heard about this last week on here so sad :(
Random access is pretty common with strings, so using a datastructure that makes it expensive is problematic.
I never bothered learning them either (apart from the squares, which stuck quickly for some reason) - I just got fast enough at working them out from known values (squares, 10x is trivial, 5x is half of that) that no one could really tell the difference. I think it actually helped me in some ways, because those "tricks" (mentally breaking it down into simpler steps) generalise to larger numbers quite well.
If only it was so simple that you need great (product) management to have a successful product.

Fine. At least someone is doing something for once. Better than screaming or screeching on the street for change. Just actually do it.

I cringe at the fact many people blame 'tHE SyStEm' when it will actually never change. A small investment in one of the established cryptocurrency coins, may even go a long way in the future.

It's all about what 'tHE SyStEm' doesn't tell you and cryptocurrencies is some how just one of them.

Oh god, the Disney+ app is a complete dumpster fire.

There is a fix for the Disney+ pause issue: Got to Settings -> Display -> Sounds -> Audio -> Dolby Digital Output and turn it off. Obviously that's crap if you want Dolby Digital Output, but for some reason it fixes the issue.

I don't actually have a problem with the Firestick as a whole, seems responsive enough for the services I use, but Disney really needs to up their game, it's the only one I have an issue with.
I think this is true. But there are some ways I think the US inadvertently creates a culture of getting drunk rather than a culture of drinking e.g. many states allow zero underage drinking (so ppl illegally do it anyway and to excess) and we make every other drug illegal (again, depends a bit by state).

Maybe these restrictions do more good than harm. But they definitely do some harm.
> as absolutely no one should be delivering information silently to a device they don't own.

That's a very very very shallow thinking. You are advocating to break the internet. You are destroying every internet protocol that ever existed. They all silently deliver information to devices you likely don't own.

Actually, we wouldn't need these dirty perversions with notifications if we had a proper background mode for apps. Like, you know, proper computers had for maybe 60 years.
You’re really just restating the claim that we don’t need intellectual property protections, without making any attempt to explain why.

Your suggestion that the global economy could shift towards an isolationist model is frankly enough to dismiss your idea without much further scrutiny.

Nest Protects are still around and are amazing. So much better than the garbage Kiddes I had before (a working mute/silence button? What a concept!). The self tests and green Ok light at night are comfort boosters. And the voice announcement of the alarm level and location are great features.
According to the PR, it's "meant to improve the experience of new users." Basically, I think this is trying to get around the situation where you have to run `npm install -g yarn` before you can run `yarn install`.
It's not a huge issue since you can have other datatypes to deal with strings efficiently. E.g., Haskell has Text and ByteStrings (both lazy and strict versions) for this reason. But it is considered a design mistake that the least efficient way of handling strings was made the default.
To some extent that was kind of my point. Many well meaning people have tried to make better decisions at various points, but it just increases the amount of unexpected behaviour.

I suspect another better decision wouldn't really help ;)

For such niche behaviour I think I probably fall on the side of bsdmainutils' "cal -b" output. Be byte for byte compatible with old behaviour, and expect people to use something else when they need more accuracy.

Some of the behaviour you advocate for can be implemented using gcal¹, it allows you to use various dates and also specify a manual reformation date with the `--gregorian-reform=<date>` option. It doesn't offer the fuzzy sliding option though, but the manual behaviour is probably good for the people who care about this minutia.

The claim was a "vast percentage of people are vulnerable" to alcoholism. Their reply supports my interpretation of their comment.

This isn't about the propensity of an individual to develop alcoholism based on personal circumstances. This is a population-level claim with no data to back it up.

Frankly, I'm not even sure what you're arguing but it seems wholly disconnected from the OPs claim or my counterpoint.
I have noticed that Anglo-American cultures tend to have two reactions to substances: over-indulgence and total abolition. It strikes me as a very unhealthy relationship.

Places in Southern Europe like France or Italy have a much more reasonable approach to alcohol. Perhaps we should aim to emulate them and not continue teetering between being teetotalers and drunkards.
Interested in this claim that 1.6M in the UK have some level of alcohol dependence, because I’d be amazed if it’s that low.
If a doctor helps ease a patients pain using a drug whose rep takes them to the opera when a better treatment would route out the cause then yes.
> I guess everybody should trade Alcohol for Xanax

Benzodiazepines are at virtually the same position on the chart that alcohol is, so I don't think the chart should be viewed as an endorsement for switching. They are of roughly the same level of danger, but that doesn't mean that they are dangerous in exactly the same ways.
Perfect, thank you - just ordered it.
MBTI and the dozens of alternatives aren't gospel, but they are a useful way of framing some conversations, especially when the people have no other shared framework to come from.
