Then use the client as normal. You can also modify the function for very specific redirect behavior.

We're pre-revenue. Our salaries would be covered by a few interested investors. Current thinking: Unless we get a strategic benefit from taking money from the investor, we shouldn't.

I'm really just curious if some data exists that shows startups that paid salaries survive longer than startups that don't.
Just saw an article on Reddit in how dangerous this is. Back in college I was being asked to develop a project to a rice factory, so I went there several times. In one occasion a worker fell in one of those grain bin and died a slowly death. Scary as heck.
If we are assuming nothing changes, comparing now to 400 years ago is unproductive, and there is no point hypothesizing if this person was Napoleon-esque.

In a more realistic, modern interpretation, Rockefeller sold his assets and buried his wealth circa 1900. Rockefeller did, undoubtedly, push forward industry a huge amount. While he is considered a monopolist, it was never the detriment of consumers. Kerosene prices fell dramatically over Standard Oil's tenure.

If he hid 1% of the money supply in a trust after paying all inheritance taxes and fees, to be opened today (let's say 1% of real GDP in his time), his wealth today would be about 0.02% of real GDP. His heir experienced tremendous inflation, in terms of their influence on the economy, whereas their buying power stayed roughly the same, in this hypothetical non-inflationary world.

> It genuinely does not matter whatsoever how much $1 buys you at any given time. It's a unit, like a liter, except one whose definition changes over time.

Except that the whole point of units like liters, inches, or joules is that they remain constant and unchanging over time. Money should be a unit of measure, not a changing unit. In what sense is a changing unit a unit?

> Your job is not to save money. Your job is to save value.

But value is subjective, so how can you save it? Different people will make different and subjective valuations of thing based on a host of criteria - a vegan won't value a burger anywhere as much as a hungry carnivore would.

The dollar, as a money, should be a constant unit. Then people could value it as they see fit, some choosing to hold more or less of it for the proverbial rainy day.
Turns into a nightmare of course. But it's gated by how much you can afford to pay. The new congestion charges will really be a boon to the ultra-wealthy since the charges are minuscule compared to what they are willing to pay and it will get poorer drivers off the streets.

I would prefer it if the congestion charges were scaled to usage rates for that reason (example, you can enter the toll zone once per month for free, but if you do it 20 times the toll eventually ends up being $100+ per journey). It seems more fair to me especially since a lot of people occasionally need to haul a box or something to Midtown, but don't usually contribute to traffic congestion.

Jellyfin supports all the major platforms[0] to some degree. The web client is definitely the most polished though. I've only used web, Android, and Kodi; Kodi being the flakiest. RTMP is a very well supported protocol, you can watch it in browser or throw the URL at pretty much any given media player and it'll work.

For user auth, Jellyfin has it's built in db and I have it hooked up to an LDAP server with authorization for a certain OU. RTMP I never tried to restrict, though if you use the nginx/apache method you probably use .htaccess or something similar?

While I agree that managing is a different skill set (have switched between the roles several times in my career) the problem with focusing on "it is a different skill set" is that it allows mediocre managers to get in who have neither a clue about the product nor about real life software processes but e.g. are great "agile master"s or have a sales background. A lot also depends on the nature of the project - some are more tangible and some other are very technical.

We need people who know where we want to end up, can recognize problems, understand dependencies, can remove hurdles, can provide resources, can communicate, make sound and stable decisions, motivate and plan. Some of these skills are mandatory in a developer but there are quite a number of managers who have a surprising lack of ability to recognize dependencies, mentally juggle dependencies, plan and making stable decisions. And when they are coming from a pure "agile master" factory they may even not be able to communicate and focus on a product goal.

> You are a team, so work together.

I agree but there are cases where managers are such a bad fit that exchanging them is the only option. Two days ago I put out feelers to see whether others thought our project manager was in over his head and we needed to escalate it. Working as a team together was not really an option as we as a team would have to do all the managers work, deal with the overhead he was creating and still had key questions undecided. Yesterday I learned the manager is quitting which is good for everyone, clearly he was not comfortable in his role and had looked for alternatives. And no, there was no animosity from the team and he had a lot of help when he started. A nice guy but not a fit.

Not to be pedantic about it, but science always, and in any event supports non vaccination for self and everybody else vaccinating instead.

>>Or would it be better to only discriminate against dogs and not their owners? We all know how much the dogs use USPS.

>I don't know what this means.

I'll explain my meaning with a hypothetical.

What if one breed were responsible for a high number of USPS delivery worker attacks? Promoting this information begs a policy response against this breed. What if most of this breed were owned by a certain demographic? From the outside this looks like a policy response against a demographic with window dressing to justify it. The outcome is what matters.

I agree with your later point. However, dog owners and parents are responsible for their dogs and children (respectively). More information is better, but selecting some specific information here is clearly targeting something or someone, regardless of intent. That is what I take issue with. Target the issue, not the demographic.

well first off some depressive people show an increased tendency towards violence https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4520382/ (although also of course it is a well known statistic that being depressed often makes you a victim of violent crime as well or at least there is some relation between the two)

also in my experience people who commit violence often suffer for the violence they have committed although that is very much dependent on the person.

A 0.002% risk of experiencing myocarditis due to the vaccine seems a better deal than catching COVID, which brings a ~0.3% risk of experiencing (symptomatic) myocarditis in a (to my non-expert understanding) similar demographic[1]. Many experts assume COVID will become endemic, so this is not a theoretical risk.

I think this is a fair point: say I sign a 5 year lease (no idea what industry norm is), I am presumably getting a discount over whatever the month-to-month or daily rate for rent would be, and accepting the risk that I need to find a way to use the property to make money throughout the lease period.

If I'm the building owner, i probably debt financed the building, and I'm taking on the risk that i can get enough cash flow from tenants to pay my mortgage.

If I'm the mortgage holder (this is my basic understanding) I've turned rue mortgage into some kind of security and sold that to an investor who is taking on the risk that the property owner will pay the mortgage. And there may be shareholders or other parties taking on the risk that whoever owns the securities will remain solvent and pay their pension or whatever.

So it's not super obvious where and how the buck should stop. I own an condo that I rent out. Guaranteed I am in the hook for it - i have no recourse for a tenant that doesnt pay other that maybe an eventual eviction, and the bank will make me sell it if I dont pay my mortgage. I'm the weakest point in the chain above, and that's why I'll have to be responsible. I suppose in exchange for that I'm exposed to more upside than the bank or the bondholders. But it's not clear to me that I'm the one beneficiary who should bear all the risk.
I think it's interesting that you have a somewhat valid point for a few use cases, but are quite myopic to the different users.

If I add in:

- I have children

- Temperatures range from -15C to +5C to -15C on the same day, and same outing

=> I need to pack backup clothing for the children in case they get wet in the +5 weather, and backup snow winter clothing for when it's -15 and they get wet.

=> We aren't talking niceties, a 25kg child exposed to sub zero weather in wet clothing will approach hypothermia and other detrimental conditions quickly.

If I add in:

- physical limitation including breathing (reliant on oxygen), exercise intolerance, amputation, pregnancy, pregnancy induced physical limitations, broken limbs, nerve damage, inner ear disorders due to concussion or older age

=> "So are your legs. Walk and bike." becomes... well, I hope you see.

My goal is to combine mStream with this project.

https://github.com/fatedier/frp

With this mstream server could automatically tunnel through a cloud service that gives them a domain and SSL certs.

This way I dont have to pay to host any of the users files on the cloud. All I need is a unlimited bandwidth vps to do the tunneling. And the user doesn't need to know what a server is, they just need to be able to run mStream.

I actually made a proof of concept which worked well. I just couldn't justify scaling it until I get a mobile app finished.

I had a house in Phila. with a tile roof, built in 1920. I "replaced" the roof in 1995, and by that I literally mean re-placed: the roofers carefully took all the tile off the roof, put down two layers of 80lb roofing felt, and reinstalled all the tile. They believed that the original was done with only 1 layer of 40lb roofing felt, and that this was the only thing that had actually failed other than a couple of cracked tiles. There was some expectation that the new one might last 100 years before it would need the same process again.
But human representations do degrade to the extent we forget detail, and also the information changes (sure, the odour might be the same and the experimental controls perfect, but an organism probably should change how they process it over time "new, unfamiliar odour", "smelt that yesterday"... "wonder if anything's happening related to that odour which emerged recently", "meh, background odour") so some of the information update is additive

Hmm. A "hidden" or "silent" heart attack often shows up as fatigue. This could be far more prevalent than data indicates.

Note that I'm not saying that it is more prevalent. So far as I know, there is no data to support my suspicion. And, personally, I suspect that if some of that is heart trouble, it's the minority of cases of Covid (and Covid vaccine) fatigue. But I note that the possibility exists that this could be prevalent.
> {:ok, foo} is just the largely community adopted soft error pattern in elixir

It is not a community pattern, because it's the way OPT (Erlang's "standard library") functions work e.g. maps:find? returns `{ok, Value} | error`.

And Elixir inherited that rather directly and build its standard library the same way. `Map.fetch` similarly returns `{:ok, value()} | :error`.

It's not hard-coded into either language, but it's absolutely not "community adopted" or "a community pattern" either.
You could ease concerns by making it a choice. Regular prison with whatever sentence or they can live out their sentence in this area.

They’d make the rules they live by. There is no “man”. It’s just them.
If you’re in a position to do so, I’d strongly recommend you get checked out if you’re having any kind of chest pain as your heart rate rises.

I lost count of how many times I was told “you’re too young to have any heart issues” before eventually being diagnosed with myo. FWIW I’m younger than you and though mild, my symptoms seem to have taken 9 months to mostly resolve.
FWIW I'm definitely an introvert and I can't wait to get back in the office. I don't want to have to talk to people all day but I really want some actual meatspace interaction.

> From my understanding, most bands were not well to do and specialization wasn't so common until recent history ( agrarian ages ).

I don't know about ages, but in recent non-agrarian cultures (e.g. Buffalo-hunters in North America) there were often medical specialists. But if we're getting pedantic, individualism would also have been a lot lower; people tend to look out for each other when they live together. Your “memorisation skills improve survival” argument doesn't work all that well when the memorisation required is well within the ability of almost all modern humans, if that's what their lives are centred around. (How many pieces of trivia does the average person know about celebrities? And that's not even deliberately-learnt knowledge.)

Those without the aptitude wouldn't go on such an expedition in the first place, if they had any sense in them.

You're trying hard to think of hypothetical scenarios where your hypothesis is true, and not hypothetical scenarios where your hypothesis is false. If I get to come up with loads of situations where my theory is true, I can justify any theory to myself. That's why scientists care so much about falsification.
Most of those in the article you can ignore and get away with it for a long time. Some of them start to become problematic once the code grows quite a lot, others are not a problem ever because they are very dependent on the context.

> The way to get engineers to adopt it is to demonstrate how it can be useful for them

Agreed. My goal is produce a connected efforts graph that can accurately connect code with effort and time spent (meetings, code reviews, waiting for builds, etc.)

This is why I refer to this as business intelligence for the software development lifecycle. Insights come from data and you can't use traditional BI tools to analyze software development data. If you want to understand effort, you need to be able to slice and dice coding activity which GitHub and traditional BI tools can't do easily or at all.

Take the following for example, if you want to quickly understand the significance of three commits, you can do something like this:

https://public-001.gitsense.com/insights/github/repos?q=comm...

which will stitch together the commits in real-time for analysis. And this is what I ultimately mean by being able to slice and dice software development activity. And how I see thing is, BI for software development activity is both useful for developers and leaders.

I can’t evaluate it… I don’t use chrome anymore and I’m learning Italian, which is not available right now. It seems like a nice idea to have something like an intuitive, super charged dictionary whenever I’m browsing … but I would argue that when not at work, a lot of people use their phone to browse the internet rather than their PC.

My tactic so far, to force myself to learn, is to change the system settings to the desired language, which in turn makes a lot of the apps and websites default to that language. It’s a pain to look up words all the time but on my phone I keep the reverso context app and the Google translator always at hand. On my laptop I just Google it.

Has anyone looked at whether the mental stress or anxiety induced by putting someone through the process of getting the shot could be maybe be a reason for triggering this?
