Yes, just write high quality content on a site that's performant/fast and make use of references/outbound links, aswell as inbound links linking to your own articles and you're golden. It also helps to be as descriptive as possible and categorize all your content to make crawlers happy.

These climate policies are not merely goals. They are laws, and they remain in force until they are repealed. It doesn't matter what kind of law they are. Do you believe that all non-constitutional law is automatically repealed when a new government takes over?

I'd hoped it might get better when Microsoft bought it; there'd really not be any need to actually turn a profit by resorting to scummy tactics and dark patterns.

Ah boy sounds awesome for him.

I like his blogs and books. Always looking at performance analysis and getting down to the issues myself whenever I can

I also thought about what I'm looking for my home and having the ocean close feels something I would really like. Primarily due to it always being in motion and active.

I think that's something which would help me to calm down mentally (adhs ).

Good for him that he can go home. I haven't found a good way achieving this in Europe. I'm in Germany and thought about going to Italy or franche countryside. Next to fiber Starlink could help here as well.

Luckily my company will allow working remotely after corona and thanks to corona I know that I can do it as well.
Another possibility is different variant which is deadlier. However everything is just speculation at this point.
What are you comparing it to?
True, but then how we define what AI is does have many answers more than it did back in Asimov's days.

For me the ability to ask a question that is not clear to some and for others will have literary humour (Douglas Adams reference) would be telling about the AI. Some humans would pick up on that reference and the humour, some would be flummoxed and it is for me how intelligence answers questions that it does not fully understand is, at least for me insightful into how intelligent they are.
Nothing to do with animal testing.

Also, your statement is highly misleading at best.

No idea what the US did but the EMA in Europe didn’t relax any of its standards and often drug testing is mostly slow because it’s costly. Here cost wasn’t really an issue and things that are usually done sequentially were done in parallel. That saves time.
> I had been considering paying for a family account

Your consideration doesn't pay for dev time. No one cares about pushing free users or 'considering' users off the platform at monetization time. Shit or get off the pot.

That said, no one blames you for doing comparison shopping at monetization time either.
Are you assuming/implying that the people who say "let me know if you need anything" don't actually mean it? Because I don't believe that's generally the case, especially if they're actually friends and not just random acquaintances.

I don't personally say that sentence outside of a work context; usually I would say "call me if you need to talk", but I won't take proactive action unless I believe my friend either wants me to or need me to.

At the end of the day, someone makes a choice to interpret this as a platitude. How about taking up the person on their offer?

I’m not sure I understand. To me medium is just an easy way to get a blog started. Nothing more to it. People often complain about their business model, but then people here always complain about any business model, or lack of a business model.

Off topic but related, why does UTF-16 and UTF-32 even exist? Doesn't UTF-8 have the capability to go up to 32 bit wide characters already?
> The average institute also doesnt have children buried in the yard. Your conclusion isnt logical.

I dont think you have any idea what you're talking about. The average residential school does. That's why they're looking. The estimate was 6000 dead children across Canada and they expect that's low.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jun/06/canada-dark-of...

> As many as 6,000 children died in residential institutions, which ran from 1876 to 1996.

Same thought here. Processing text with cut and pipes is cute and works when data are regular except in real life there is often lines here and there breaking assumptions. Using a programming language offer way more possibilities to deal with pathological cases.

I wish Friday was a day of no-work... People seem to batch up all their requests from the whole week that they didn't report and drop them in your lap like a turd in the punch-bowl on Friday mornings. "Yeah, so we'll be getting a follow-up on Monday? Thanks, have a good weekend."

Interesting, how do you plan to do that?
My job also involves a lot of time cleaning and structuring data, and I agree. I've been able to automate some parts of a cleaning/transforming process within the same domain but it would be very rare for that same process to be applicable to another domain without modification (and extensive consultation with the subject experts).
In Norway the office is desolate after 13:00 on a Friday. Only the youngest and the ones without children stick around till 16:00, and not many of them either.
Does no one give any thought to what they are doing? At the very best this system can only make predictions on what it has seen. It cannot validly assess a truly new idea. It _can't_ by definition. So if this is used say for deciding funding, this will exacerbate the existing problems.

So wrong-headed an idea it's embarrassing it's treated as science.
UTF-16 was first. Or rather, UCS-2, which was limited to the Basic Multilingual Plane, and which UTF-16 extends to the whole of Unicode.
I read Brendan's book on performance in order to prep for an SRE role. Awesome tips and it showed a whole new world!

They exist before UTF-8 afaik.
UTF-16 and UTF-32 are older than UTF-8.

Besides, at the beginning people were really against variable size encodings. UTF-8 won despite the Unicode consortium and all the committees effort, not because of it.
I thought people dropped the k for that. Nobhead has extra power!
I was always curious: the Sprague/s were left virgin for so many years. Was it because they hadn't been discovered by writers, or because they were considered untouchable for reasons of historical importance. Obviously the scene has all types, and both scenarios seem as unlikely as each other.. can you elaborate ?

Edit: "Sprague" or Sprague Thompson is rolling stock dating back to 1908. There are one or two hidden very well in the system, with one still in mint, serviceable condition.

It is one of the worries I heard most, I am intending to make a video soon. I have been using it for months now myself and use it daily in different co-working and cafes and I haven't had any problems. I still carry a next stand with me to show people the difference, and funny enough, the roost/next stand have more 'risk' falling of the end of the table (the back feet stick out, and because of their design you might be prone to push your laptop further out and pushing the legs over the edge).

The wider stance of the next and roost do make it more stable on paper, but I haven't noticed any difference in practice.

I simply can't put in more than ~20 hours of productive work per week anyway. Yes, I used to sit at my desk in the office, but I was basically doing nothing and just wasting time. Either I'm just lazy (highly likely), or there is a cap for the number of productive hours you can spend doing creative work.
I find it pretty easy to skip past the recruiters and connection requests when I pop in from time to time. I just generally ignore all the random recruiter request that are way off target. (Though, in all fairness, my LinkedIn profile is very scanty.) And I'll rarely respond--usually with a polite no--to on-target ones given that I'm not really on the market. (And have never gotten a job since grad school decades ago that wasn't a personal contact.)
The fact that you need 25 years of cultural background to understand what Guten Morgen means is the whole point. You could similarly explain why Americans asking "how are you" is not a real question; the whole point is that the culture differs from the literal phrase, which makes it difficult for non-native speakers.

But rather than asking users to pay for newly developed premium functionality, they asked long term users to pay for things that they already had and had always been provided for free.

In this metaphor, they started charging people for using a previously freely accessible pot while they were in mid-shit.
I have the same reaction as jwilber. If I think you are in a healthy state of mind, then “let me know if you need (or want) anything” is sufficient initiative. Even if you are my kid/SO/parents/siblings.
Funny. Is the second round more honest or just as shallow?
Right wing governments are definitely less authoritarian than left wing ones.

Lockdown in left wing countries has been much worse (as in, you can't get out of this area, you need to wear masks outside) than in the UK or the US.

Tbh I was expecting better from the UK Tories and I wish they didn't implement all these restrictions and gave away so much money - but they did way better than other European countries I have friends in.
At the same time, I've seen approval for Boris and Rishi Sunak increase among leftists, probably because they enacted pretty left wing policies.

It's the power of capital vs the power of income.

If you have a high salary and no ability to save for a deposit then property can be unaffordable and you're stuck paying someone else's mortgage.

If you have a 5% deposit saved and a high salary, you still can't afford a home because lots of people are in your position and have driven up house prices and rates and leverage available sucks.

If you have 20-25% down and a high income you can afford a home to live in and it's probably cheaper than renting long term.

If you have 100% in cash then you can buy one to live and buy 3 more as buy-to-lets as a side business.
The Guilty, Crazy Secret That Helps Me Write
Does that mean the same thing as "out of the frying pan and into the frier"?
This is also a big annoyance for me. I regularly interact with people of different cultures, and find that interpreting feedback is something I have to context switch for often, always needing to remember whom I am speaking with.

My native culture is quite straightforward in how things are phrased. As such, I find it easy to work with e.g. Germans, who routinely use phrases such as "this is unacceptable" in feedback. Which doesn't mean anything horrible, it just means that the specific thing being discussed is, in its current state, unacceptable for the final product. But Americans would likely phrase the same feedback as "needs some work". If American feedback includes "unacceptable" then you've probably really messed up.

The most difficult part is recognizing when Americans are genuinely impressed by something. Since regular positive feedback is full of "this is amazing" and "we love it" (thing that would just get a "this is good" at home), it's hard for me to recognize when something has really exceeded expectations and they really do love it.
One of the weirdest was shooting photos when a track side door opened, a man in a nice suit walked up to us, didn't say a word, smiled and shook our hands, each in turn, in total silence.
He then revealed himself to be the chief engineer of the line 1, was happy to let us hang out and watch the trains with him, and said in parting.. oh, I really should get around to fixing that ingress point of yours..

Or a worker we bumped into who said he knew we weren't painters because we didn't throw rocks at him, and thanked us kindly.

The most surprisingly was stumbling upon a 1930s train, the Sprague Thompson in mint condition, hiding in a section of metro that we'd overlooked for years...
Subtleties are also difficult. If an English person say what you did was great, it most likely wasn't. And if they say it was not bad, it may have been great...
A open source command line interface for day to day activity of Jira
I have a habit of automating most of my day to day task to terminal command. I have created a command line application that can be used to interact with Jira from terminal.

The link to github is https://github.com/amritghimire/jira-terminal

The following features are implemented in the package:

List and filter the issues in JIRA with Jira filters, jql, or other fields.

Move a ticket between the list of transitions available for a ticket.

Add and use most used jql, component, user and other values as alias.

View the details of a ticket along with comments from a ticket.

View the list of a fields available for a ticket including custom fields.

Update the fields for a ticket.

Create a new issue or sub tasks.

List or add new comments to the issue.

This is my first full featured opensource application. I would love to have feedback from you all.

You can selectively breed viruses for infectivity, lethality. Sam Harris had a podcast about it recently, Engineering the Apocalypse. Maybe that’s what the OP meant? Your response seems so harsh comparison in comparison by the way.

That seems very reasonable? If the auto high beams aren’t accurate, that’s a problem. But if I’m driving I want control of the lights, and you can’t fault the self driving system to think the same? As long as it doesn’t want to control the playlist on the stereo…

"Windows NT/9x/2000 represented the high point for aesthetics."

I hope you are aware, that this is highly subjective?

(and maybe nostalgia related?)

Because I don't know any person who likes it, who didn't use it back then a lot.

edit: unsurprisingly notaware it seems. I advice to make a test : ask any person who did not use this aesthetic back then, and see if you find anyone who likes it

AFAIR the reason this database is stored as SHA-1 hashes is because that's what a large amount of the original data dumps contained. Moving to a harder hash would have required cracking all of them first and wouldn't do much more to ensure the database can't be directly used as a password list for attacks.

In 2020 Neflix Australia made ~$1.4B in local revenue but claimed they made only $20M in local revenue (fucking lol).
