No, it doesn't. But to be honest, this would be next level. When looking at this, I'm thinking of alternatives and I can only name 2:

1 - Kemper Profiler

2 - NeuralDSP

Both of them are above 1000€/$. We are talking about 10x the price of this thing. Add some Multi-FX Pedal (like Line6 HX-Stomp) where you put this in the FX-Loop and you end up with something equally good for still half the price.

And in general, its not about what is better, digital or analog. It's about the use-case. In the studio or when noodling around with the knobs when practicing: Real Amps and Pedals. But on stage, you don't play with the settings of your pedals or you want presets. This is where you go digital. No one will notice the slightly different sound there anyway.
They bleed editors because they keep censoring and shunning people for not having the same monolithical point of views with regards to politics and social issues.

crypt.ee refuses to have a mobile app or allow third parties to do so, which is a hard dealbreaker if you use your phone to take photos.

It seems that the expect people to manually pick photos to upload one by one via their website and also figure out which ones you've already uploaded and not pick those again.

Basically the really hard part of syncing photos needs to be done manually.
No at this moment - a search for "1149" yields only:

I think you're talking about Gibbard–Satterthwaite theorem

Arrow's Theorem doesn't care about "tactical voting", it's about the Impossibility of what appear to be intuitively reasonable fairness constraints on the outcome. Specifically you cannot have: unrestricted domain, non-dictatorship, Pareto efficiency, and independence of irrelevant alternatives

Gibbard–Satterthwaite says if there are at least three candidates, then either one of them can't win, or some of the electorate should offer an insincere preference (ie tactical voting) to best achieve their goal.

They're closely related, if you have proved Arrow then you can get to Gibbard–Satterthwaite from there, but they are not the same exact thing.

The proportional male surplus in China is just over double that of the US. Of course there is something different happening in China, but asserting that this is mostly due to people "killing female infants" is ludicrous. By your logic, there "only" about 2/5 (portionally) of female infants getting killed in the United States as well.
> countries that operate in this way are no longer democracies?

Such countries do not extend democratic values to ~other countries~. In fact, they may actively erode democracy in other countries.

If the power structure of a country no longer extends democratic values to other countries, the power structure ~may~ no longer understand democratic principles and have deep problems within its own nation as a result.

I spent years travelling around SE Asia, and met plenty of Chinese, enough to decide I did not want to go there. All of them were openly racist (mind you, all of SE Asia is openly racist, so this is nothing unusual). I accept that there are minority ethnic identities within China, but I have been told over and again (by Chinese people) that China is Han.

I have Chinese friends here in Berlin who still won't talk about Chinese politics within hearing range of their phones. If this isn't a totalitarian regime, what is?

Isn't the main factor in work-life balance the nature of the relationship you have with your employer/customer(s), not the physical location? Some employers respect boundaries, some do not, and some staff members are better or worse at enforcing personal boundaries.

This article's premise is befuddling to me.
If you pay average salary you get average work (or below).

Good programmers in Germany do not work for €50.000. I'm based in Iceland and do contract work for German companies, and I assure you none of the people I work with are even close to €50.000. Perhaps because they're not average but good.

Here in Iceland €50.000 might possibly get you a recent graduate. Myself, I wouldn't hire a programmer at that low pay though, graduate or not. A couple of my friends (good programmers, not "average") who have moved to Sweden and Denmark get similar salaries to what they got up here in Iceland.

Higher salary gets you talented people.

On Android I turned off the «play protect» because I'm sure what I'm doing, and every time I try to install something it asks me if I want to enable Play Protect™ with no way to turn off their reminders.

Also, some of my apps have some play store popups asking me if I want to update the app every time there's a new version, even though I explicitly turned off auto updates and update notifications, again, with no way to turn off their friendly reminders.

I hate modern «you better do what we think you should be doing» software.

I'm happy that I have LTSC version of Windows that just works and doesn't have those popups (but Windows Defender still has some annoying notifications that can't be disabled AFAIK).

Recently, Whatsapp forced me to update it because it refused to work if I don't. Meanwhile, there are open source IM clients that were made 10+ years ago and still work without any updates just fine. I wish all software was like that.

This reminds me of high-level equilibrium traps[0], a concept used to explain China's historical economic stagnation. Without market inefficiencies, there are no incentives to invest in improvements.

You are making an extraordinary claim here (that an idea founded on a significant amount of study and prior experimentation is worthless). It seems to me that it's a little strange to ask someone else to disprove you when you haven't really made your own point of view plausible.

That comparison was aimed at the average salary of ~120k for all employees. And maybe there's a middle ground between moving everyone to Thailand and having a non profit operating on donated money based in the most expensive area in the world?
Cambridge at the very least provides reasonably affordable accommodation for all years of your undergraduate degree. And some colleges provide accommodation for Masters and PhD students as well.

The UK student loan is not perfect, but it does include a living stipend (which is family income based). Obviously it sucks to have to take a loan, but working is not a necessity (until after graduation). I’m not sure how reasonable the living stipend amounts are, but Cambridge is definitely reasonably affordable if you go out of the way for groceries etc. It’s a bit more expensive from a nightlife perspective, but again, college bars tend to have fairly cheap drinks.
Maybe things were different in 2004, but those forms do not cross paths with admissions decisions whatsoever, for at least the last decade. The financial aid office won't communicate with admissions until offers have been decided. MIT is actually one of a few schools that is need blind for even international students, but almost every top school is need blind for domestic students these days. They want to have a financial aid package available to offer at the same time as admissions, which makes sense, so submitting your financial info prior to acceptance would be necessary for that.

100k was maybe "sky high" 20 years ago. 100k in most large cities is not. When your modest house costs $800k USD, a car costs 30k, auto insurance is $1600 a year, groceries are 10k a year (looking at you, Toronto), just how in the hell is 100k "sky high"?

$80k was a decent salary in a mid-size city 15 years ago.

If it was, it certainly was a failed CIA operation.

No but honestly: while the US had some interest with the Kurds, they didn't engage to cause the Syrian civil war nor did they were able to stop Russia from gaining influence.

And I am not really sure if your mixing up ISIS supporters in your narrative. I haven't heard that they were links to the CIA for any terror in Europe connected to Syria.

This is not actually possible as Ottawa is ranked 6th and Vancouver is ranked 8th.
That's not only a side effect, but a stated principle: After you gain admission, you have to prove that you have the money you need to sustain yourself either through a scholarship, or you have to literally show a bank statement that shows that you have a lump sum in your account that will sustain you for the normal amount of time it takes to finish the degree. Living expenses are factored into this at a set rate. You are not allowed to rely on funds you intend on earning while you're actually studying.

I don't think this is all that wrong: If you are dependent on working to be able to cover your living expenses, it takes time away from your studies, which reduces the likelihood you'll pass, increases the likelihood of needing more time to get to a degree. Needing more time, means having to spend more time with low-paid jobs to sustain yourself until you get to the degree, and it all adds up to a risk that's difficult to manage for the student, and universities definitely don't want the drop-out rate that results from that.

You wouldn't start building a house when it's uncertain that you have enough money to be able to complete the project.

The way to manage the social ramifications is by keeping tution rates low and providing scholarships. Cost of living is not something you can control particularly well although, at Oxbridge, they at least do what they can on that front through university-owned housing etc. Also: Those are university towns that don't have cost of living and rents spiralling out of control as a side-effect of other industries that are there, like is the case in the Bay Area or Boston, which is a major metropolitan area even without the universities.
Yet you have failed.

I'd be fine with doing verification of parts like that if and only if it doesn't lead to nonsense such as scary popups warning of damage or reduced functionality or what have you.

Obviously this also implies that to create a replacement part you don't need to ask the original manufacturer for permission. A "third party signing" key should be publicly available.
By default, you can use the themes for one domain/project. You can also upgrade to the unlimited version, which allow you to use in unlimited domains/projects.

You have access to the code source. So, you can modify as much as you want. The only limitation is you cannot create derivative products like themes, components library, page builder, etc. You aren't allowed to repackage or redistribute for someone else to use.

I've seen the opposite problem. My apartment which just completed construction at the end of 2020 is very insulated, but has very aggressive air exchange through the HVAC system to compensate. My poor humidifier can't keep up, so the indoor air humidity is at the mercy of whatever the dew point is outside. It was consistently below 10% throughout February. I wonder which situation is worse for your health.
Yes, my reading is that the Aggravated Behaviour clause clearly grants them the power to be harsher, and they simply chose to place a more moderate upper bound for now.
New Telegram sticker pack for coders
Agreed!

My wife and I are building a home at the moment and, when it came time to consider appliances, noise of a given appliance was a factor and something we took into consideration. For example, we chose a very quiet vent hood to go over the hob/stovetop since it's an open plan kitchen/living area. Vent hoods can be very noisy (65+ dB) when running maximum.

However, given that there are tractors in fields nearby, dogs, chickens, and other "sounds of rural life" ... we made sure to put in a LOT of insulation and also went for triple-paned windows. While the house isn't yet complete, we hear almost no outside sounds when we are inside.

When we compare that to our current location - on a side street, but a moderately busy one - with sometimes couriers on loud motorcycles, lorries, police/fire vehicles (sirens), and the occasional person with a car that has an exhaust tuned to be loud ...the difference is really quite remarkable.

First off, how much of this is going to wikipedia editors and how much is going to other stuff? Honest question, I tried looking and I couldn't figure out which grants actually get approved.

Secondly, the number of editors peaked in 2007, as far as I know. Why does the money spent on grants and awards keep going up if the number of editors keeps going down?
Yup agreed, commented the exact same below.
The amazing fact is that Engine No1’s pitch, while very accurate at depicting the current bad positioning of the company for a future with less oil, had exactly 0 proposals of what Exxon should look like in a decade. In addition, both of the new directors that they managed to install are people with purely oil refining background.

Still not clear to me what the intentions of Engine No.1 are.

This has been a major Docker pain point, and not many people know about this trick. I didn't know you could have the variables in the Compose file directly, does that really work?

Our approach so far was to add yet another layer (a script to pass uid/gid to Compose), but if we don't need the script that would be fantastic.

EDIT: Ah, I just saw the bashrc wrinkle you mention. Yeah, that's why we had the script, and it's a damn shame Docker can't do this natively. It has been a major hassle.

It's not about a race to the bottom, it's the vast differences in pay in the same society. If the median real salary is $35 000, why should a 25 year old web developer make 3X that? Some software engineers act like what they do is so much more important and difficult than what everyone else do, it's a bit disturbing. Of course, people in finance are even worse.

One of the first comments I heard from coworkers on work-life-balance was "hope you're not working with a team in Mountain View", and they weren't referring to just the time zone difference (we're in Austin). Before Covid the office was empty before 8:30am and after 4:30pm.

I think it's obvious this list doesn't take into account cultural properties or medium sized cities, as others have commented.
It can be, but it depends on where you get it. Strictly speaking this is no different than generics from different manufacturers (which somehow always have big varying effects even though the apothecary likes to claim "it's all the same").
