They didn't work for me. I'm super sensitive to microphonics. With the Airpod Pros, every step I took sounded like someone banging a drum in my ear. It's not specific to Airpod Pro's, most headphones that plug into my ears I have that problem (though not all). I wouldn't have even tried the Airpod Pros except I figured if anyone was going to get that right it would be Apple.

Well, they didn't solve it, I sold them and went back to my non-Pro Airpods
There's "implementation defined" for the concept you describe.

Non-native here, but I have an opinion on your choice of examples. They aren't posh or counter-productive, on the contrary, they are just specific to fields under-represented in popular culture (political history, fantasy/longevity research, music/acoustics). I don't see any obvious ways to convey the same meaning using more common words.
It's a good start that should've been pursued earlier the past decade, but really they should dream bigger and band together to take on Prop 13. They alone have the money to do so.

Gov spends 40% of all GDP. That should be plenty to take care of the elderly. Of the entire federal budget almost half goes to the elderly: medicaid/medicaid ~ 20%, social security almost 20%.

the question we should be asking is. Why doesn't all this money go farther than it does? I'd say, we may not be nearly as wealthy as GDP/capita says we are.

> They've already proven they'll hand all your data over to the Chinese government as a condition of getting access to that market.

FTFY: "They've already proven they'll follow the local laws of countries they operate in."

If you want to do business in country X, you must follow the laws of country X. It's that simple.

Apple is a business, not world police.

There's also no need to project your own personal/cultural/morality standards and beliefs on to other countries' and their laws.

Some people disagree for governments to have access to too much data.

Others agree to keep them safe - children, terrorism, national security, personal safety, etc.

Debates around privacy and governments have been happening for decades, especially since Snowden revelations of data hoarding by the 5 eyes, to recent end-to-end encryption bans in messengers.

> we always found it mildly annoying that upgrading a system (Linux, FreeBSD) would [...] bring along the danger of the new version not having a package for the "old" version of Puppet or Ansible that we were using.

If this is the only issue, it sounds only mildly annoying. Either upgrade your tooling to use the newer version of be prepared to package up that old version of Puppet/Ansible--as long as you control what version is installed and are comfortable with the range of versions the package manager offers.

The type of scenario I had in mind is relying on something like Python, Ruby, Perl, etc. Something the OS may also deeply rely on. This came up a lot when macOS stopped updating a lot of GPL2 stuff to avoid shipping GPL3 or when they announced they'd stop shipping Python, Perl, and Ruby. You also see it when people try and change system Python version outside of the package manager in Linux and can no longer boot--the same thing can just as easily happen with libraries.

Not OP but I have a pair of nice IEMs, open and closed back headphones and a headphone amp on my computer.

For serious listening sessions I will still plug my IEMs into my phone, but the Airpods Pro are just really convenient and sound good enough that at this point, 90% of my mobile listening is done through them. The sound cancellation is nice and better than my sennheiser momentum m2s (audio quality on those is better than the airpod pros but they have apt-x which is the difference maker, but does not exist on ios yet)

I wish I could remember where I read it, many, many years ago, but a blog was talking about automating systems in a government entity.

They spent much work customizing a workflow, where all requests would go to Judy, and she would decide who to route it to. They spent weeks trying to map it all out, and the logic used, etc. They eventually found out the reason this was hard-coded into their proceses, was 15 years earlier, in the days of paper based forms, Judy had the first laser printer in the building, and it was cheap to print compared to the other printers. It had nothing to do with her main job. So the printer next to her desk would hum, and then Judy would walk it to the person that needed it. Over the years, this just became accepted, and then later, incorporated into workflows/policies, and became Judy's full time job.

Apparently neither Andrew Lee or the freenode staff have any idea what happened to the money he apparently donated to freenode (the company has not filed its accounts as required and is in danger of being dissolved, which is legally Lee's responsibility but he seems to think the volunteer staffers who claim no knowledge of donated funds are responsible for it). Freenode mostly operates off of donated infrastructure and volunteer efforts, the expenses they have are basically minimal.

You can say this over and over again, but that doesn't make it true. It is just a wish of how you want reality to be, and the US is sufficiently wealthy that people can indulge in these delusions and still put food on the table. For a while - there is a lot of wealth and human capital to destroy before things start to break down. These types of delusions are what makes it harder for newer people to enter fields and so inhibits human capital formation. Getting rid of grades in schools or giving different races different grades, getting rid of standardized tests, etc, this all destroys information and human capital. It also makes the nation less competitive when it competes against the (majority) of the world which does not suffer from these delusions and is more interested in acquiring human capital than destroying it for the sake of some equality myth.
> Since when were NDAs routinely limited to 10 years?

I'm not seeing an indication that it was routine, just that all the people involved happened to have 10 year NDAs in place. Might've been RSA-specific, potentially as a consequence of the breach or just an artifact of RSA's own policies; it's not actually mentioned. I'm also only familiar with 5 year NDAs.
Portuguese sometimes has a strangely literary cadence and the sentence structure tends to formality.

It's quite an unusual language - a mix of Romance, Arabic, and a hint of English, which sounds like Russian when spoken. There are also plenty of false friends which confuse native speakers of both languages.

Some of this comes down to poor management as well. Sometimes it can be so stressful to convince them to do things the proper way, that it's a lot easier to just give them what they want in the short term and then ditching a year later before the bill comes due.
But should your life be dedicated to work forever while you’re able bodied? What about having some fun while you’re still able to? Most people in the US don’t even take vacations like those in software do. I don’t think my own parents have left the country in 30 years. The only reason they ever left was due to military service. Otherwise, they could never afford it anyway.

UBI is interesting but it’d never scale to the same level as social security benefits. Many people in the US live off of just social security and maybe a tiny bit of retirement funds.

If you gave out social security to everyone, we’d have a massive amount of people quitting work (potentially forever). Wouldn’t like be financially sustainable unless we overhaul the entire system and have extremely straight forward taxation without deductions, special treatment, different brackets for different types of income, etc.

would a reasonable simplification be average propagation speed per transistor?

Originally (in true denard scaling land) 2D feature size implied speed and density (which in turn implied power efficiency)... but now that features are distorting into different shapes, those two things are not necessarily directly correlated any more, so perhaps they should be measured separately.

Propagation is the tricky bit because that's where ultimately designs and usable density come into play, but these are only supposed to be rough guides - a few metrics at extremes could be enough, propagation at highest (unrealistic) density, and a density that is possible to continually drive without heat dissipation and power issues.
What model do you have?

Prusa MK3S+ 3d printer - Excellent quality, it just works and was really fun to build the kit. I love being able to quickly think of and design anything I want in CAD (Onshape) and be able to print it the first try. I don't have to tinker around with the printer I can focus on building stuff.
My sense has been that the things we need to know are mostly pretty clear. There are things we don't know, but it seems that Andrew Lee is the _reason_ (or a reason) that we don't know many of those things.

- Who controlled nickserv/chanserv?
I'm not sure, but my impression is that it was probably christel (who was head of Freenode staff) until she resigned, then tomaw (who became head of Freenode staff at that time), until he was served with threatening legal papers ordering him to deliver them to Andrew Lee.

When I started with my trainer 5+ years ago, one of my goals was being able to do a pullup. We never really focused on them specifically, I got up to 6, or so. The two things that really got me there, and they go together, were learning to activate my lats (pullups are as much a back exercise as an arm one), and deadlifts. They definitely don't work the lats directly, but you'll engage them when your form is good, training that activation under heavy load.

Problem is if you're thinking about a pullup bar, you probably don't have the equipment for deadlifts. Band deadlits can work, though.

You can also try a lat pushdown with a band to train lat activation. With pullups, it's easy to turn it into an arm exercise. It's harder to skip this with a lat pushdown.

I suggest that being forced by necessity to work at a job with no future that doesn't suit your interests or talents is a human career form of technical debt.

Supposedly in ancient Israel, every 50th year was a Jubilee year, in which all debts were cancelled.

How about we accelerate the schedule and every 10 years the government offers unemployment benefits comparable to now, without the need for the fig leaf of economic emergency, and give people a chance to reassess and cancel some of their career debt
I've been a fountain pen user for years but in the last few years have found gel pens to be a good compromise for their relative reliability. The Uniball Signo 207/307 gives a clean line without much pressure, on par with some of my favorite fountain pens, plus I've been impressed with the waterproofness of the ink.

If you think of this as an interactive API over your browser, there are a lot of possibilities, as it significantly lowers the barrier to entry for browser dev.

One thing I’ve always wanted is a way to sync cookies between my browser and curl, something like that would be relatively trivial in Nyxt, assuming it exposes APIs for managing cookies (and if it doesn’t, I’d imagine it would be easy to add).

I can easily imagine myself writing little functions like I do in Emacs to automate various things, like iterating over all my tabs and shoving their URLs into a text file, or searching through the content of all open tabs, or adding little menu shortcuts like “append this highlighted text to an email message text box in another tab”, or “take the highlighted text, construct a new URL based on it, and open it in a new tab”. I do these kinds of things all the time in Emacs and I love it, I would be excited to use a browser with the same ease of extensibility.

I can also imagine, if the community is large enough, that people smarter than me will come up with libraries for Nyxt that blow my mind. This always happens to me when a powerful tool is combined with a strong community.

I really dislike the paternalistic attitude in this article. It treats working people like wayward children who must be kept from sinful idleness. It does not treat them as rational economic actors who maybe, just maybe, don't want to work for poverty wages.

I would have probably put my Zojirushi but I got it seven years ago (and am in awe at that fact now that I've typed it).
