You can build and manage a fire to burn slow, but yea, you do have to get up and add fuel as needed.

Depending where you are, if you can orient the face of the tent towards the sunrise that might warm it up some (so you could snooze a little longer).

I've never done that yet though so I can't say how much. Now I'm curious to know how much that will warm it.

> pickers I would imagine would do the opposite (i.e. get rid of the store's oldest stock first).

Maybe if they worked for the store, but why would they do that if they worked for an independent service with ratings and customer support?

Personally, my experience even with first-party shoppers is that they seem to select for good quality. I've never gotten unpleasant produce or near-expired items. I'm sure it happens, but I'm also sure it produces plenty of support calls.
For better or for worse. When you say "connect", that means get them in front of a couple of hundred platforms (globally, comes down to couple dozen in the west) to transact on and generate revenue for those market players. It's like we took the 32bit color animated GIF internet and made it a 128 color static PNG of mostly similar shades of 10 colors.

"Specialized breeders" have zero sympathy from me; the only reason they have problems with their gene pool size is because of their own stupid breeding habits and objectives. Go get a mutt from the pound if you need to expand the gene pool of your dogs. The reason German Shepards in America are fucked up is not because import of dogs from Germany is banned, it's because American breeders of German Shepards are fucking idiots [generally speaking.]

There's not that much space between a sufficiently thought-out plan of what software to write, and source code in a modern high-level language.
Hard part is, there’s no way to reverse what has already been started. We need to go through a revolution either way, to destroy this insanity, or for it to win and this country regresses into a dystopian nightmare.

This is incredibly interesting. From the articles I've been able to dig up, it sounds as though they've outright admitted to breaking the counterfeit products and it was not an accident[0].

Rather than simply state "We've detected a counterfeit product. If our driver works at all with this product, it will probably be unreliable. It may also break it, entirely. We recommend buying a replacement from (xyz) and requesting a refund from the retailer your purchased it from" Maybe allow them to continue "at their peril", but intentionally break it? That's just stupid.

Consider that this is a device that is probably being used by a company, a developer or otherwise power-user who will likely purchase more than one, did intentionally breaking the one they had make them want to purchase a genuine one or any future product from you? Or did you just cause a poor sysadmin to make it their mission in life to cause your future bankruptcy? It'd make me investigate any alternative to an FTDI product for any future purchase, and they did that, not the counterfeit-maker.

This is such an awesome "punch the customer" response; it's like the RIAA/MPAA are moonlighting in management over there. I loved the FTDI official response, somewhere highlighted is how awful counterfeits are for their business. It's really difficult to feel sympathy for a company who so recklessly disregarded my business by destroying something I owned that they didn't make -- trademark/counterfeit law aside, the only person who got victimized twice was the person who thought they purchased an FTDI product.

But needing the development of quantum error correction actually invalidates one of the points the article makes:

> Nic Carter pointed out that quantum breaks would be gradual rather than sudden.

It's likely cracking quantum error correction won't be a gradual process. Instead one day it won't work, and the next day it will be possible to build very big quantum computers.

I don't think that means QC will be a major problem for crypto. It's not like there aren't fixes already, and they've proved themselves to be collectively very adept at changing protocols and algorithms. Hell one of the changes they made to bitcoin is to add flag bits and a voting protocol that made future changes easier.

What does it mean that they don't enforce deep immutability? If you have a const pointer or reference you can't call non-const methods or make changes to variables declared without the "mutable" modifier. As you already alluded, if you want to call some non-const methods and then make the object immutable forever you can use an IIFE:

const auto foo = [&]() {
Foo x;
x.call_some_non_const_method();
x.something_else_non_const();
return x;
}();

I don't know what to say about your problems with external libraries taking non-const parameters. Const correctness is one of the most basic things you learn about when you first learn C++, so whether or not you think it's a good system I can't imagine there are going to be many good external libraries that aren't const correct.

I'd also add even if you thought you could enforce this at runtime, in practice it wouldn't really work due to pointer aliasing.
I think it has more to do with the average age people tend to get the disease. Heart disease won’t affect most people until their 60’s

My Google results:

“ Average age of first heart attack is 65.0 years for men and 71.8 years for women. About 80% of people who die of CHD are age 65 or older”

“ Almost half – 46% in 2017 – of all people who die from cancer are 70 or older. Another 41 percent are between 50 and 69 years old – so that 87% of all cancer victims are older than 50 years."
Recent years? Haha

Do you mean like the last 2 years or something longer than my entire life span
I would add Spray Foam to your list. Increases racking strength of walls, provides an airtight seal and vapor barrier (2lb- Closed Cell Foam), and will eventually pay for itself in Heating and Cooling savings.

We have a a very large cottage in Northern Ontario (3000 sq/ft +) that has been sprayed foamed (Demilic Heatlok) and has in floor radiant heating and forced air AC all supplied by Geo Thermal. The electric bills a year are less than what some people spend at Starbucks. The comfort is incredible in -30F/-34c or +100f/38c and a bomb could go off outside and I doubt you would hear it. The costs to insulate the whole house and to install the Geothermal (including AC) was 55k, less than what some folks spend on kitchen cabinets and counter tops.
SoftMaker Office is a good office suite that supports Linux, with HiDPI and all.

It also has a free version, FreeOffice. It does have some performance issues at times, but I find it better than LibreOffice overall.

Corel brought many quality software to Linux. Not only office software but also their graphics suite. And a Linux distro.

After the Microsoft deal, Corel continued publishing WordPerfect for other Unixes other than Linux. Corel never clarified why they started excluding Linux.

I've been using Google for years. These days I literally do not know what Chat is. I'm not sure if it's what I'm using, if it's embedded in what I'm using, if it's one of the embedded things I ignore, etc. (I use Google Voice, which on android I think they tried to say was chat at some point? But none of the strings seem to say that. And then in gmail, is that Chat, the thing they keep pretending anyone cares about the 5th time they rebranded and split/combined/deprecated/invented?

I think they've gone beyond making it unusable, I literally don't know how I'd find it if I wanted to, and they've long since convinced me that I shouldn't try.

> Doing so helped me to make lots of money in the second half of 2020 betting on pandemic-sensitive stocks (not Hertz), since most investors were too pessimistic about vaccines for much of that period

Sounds like a Monday-morning quarterback to me. I am guessing he lost money as the maret crashed due to covid unless he was in cash. if he truly had a sure-fire system of filtering out bad narratives, he would have gotten out before the crash in jan-feb as the virus was getting media attention, and then bought near the bottom. He would have known beforehand that Covid was different from SARS or Bird Flu and sold, anticipating a crash.
>You can legally get and run WordPerfect for free

According to your own link, the only version you can get for free is the last Mac version, and you can't run that without emulating the Mac, and you can't do that without a copy of MacOS 9 which isn't free.

The Linux version of 8.0 was available once as a free download, but it didn't come with redistribution rights. Just because something was once available for download for free doesn't mean you're allowed to keep making copies of it. Nobody's going to come after you if you pirate the formerly free download, of course, but nobody's probably going to come after you if you pirate it, period.

I switched to FreshDirect during the pandemic, and I am probably never going to depend on a large grocery store again. FreshDirect is my weekly delivery, and the nearby bodegas have what’s needed when I need a couple things.

Every large NY grocery store consistently seems to have either poor-quality or extremely expensive produce, which was drastically exacerbated last April: if you don’t go soon after they stock, people pick over, scratch and generally take all the edible-looking choices. Whole Foods was terrible for delivery: the pickers seemed to just choose what was available, which inevitably tends to be what in store shoppers left over. I’d much rather on average get an average apple or onion, without having to spend time figuring out whether it’s “good”: average is almost always good enough.

My total time spent grocery shopping went down, while the quality of the food went up. Their website does a really good job of focusing me on what’s fresh, in season, and otherwise likely to be good this week, and it seems like there’s a lot less waste in this model. I can also order more than I can walk home myself, which is pretty valuable when you don’t own a car.

Get an Iwatani 35FW butane stove for the occasions your partner wants to use gas. It uses cheap cans of butane gas, puts out an unexpectedly high amount of BTU due to the burner design, and a heat transfer bar keeps the butane can warm. It can also be moved outside for wok cooking so it doesnt smoke up the house. And you can do things like hotpot/fondue.

A few years ago I found a book which is basically this, called You Are Your Own Gym. It's full of body weight exercises, plus a 10-week program built on these exercises. It seemed like it was written for exactly me -- someone who doesn't like going to the gym, and doesn't like long boring cardio. I had some good success following the book's program on and off for a few years.

Then a couple months before the pandemic I joined the author's new subscription service called Mark Lauren On Demand. It's a library of workout videos and programs, organized by difficulty. It's like $8.99/month and I think it's the best thing I pay for. I'm definitely in the best shape I've ever been.

Workout videos are surely not a new idea, but I hadn't tried that format before this, and I like that the videos are literally him doing the exercises along with you, including warmup and cooldown. It means I can look at the timestamp and know exactly how long it'll take to do a workout that day. And I like that it's all scheduled out for me. I just have to show up (in my basement).

Book + workout program is at https://marklauren.com/

I've gotten spoiled or damaged stuff when doing curbside pickup at Target. But it is also pretty easy to get a refund if you click a few buttons in the app and attach a photo. My guess is that in this case, the pickers are optimizing for throughput and not going out of their way to pick better or worse items.
A bunch of verification systems use a video feed instead of a static photo. This helps a lot to weed out photoshops, and you can also check for reflections (the ones I had to go through ask you to move your camera under different angles)

While there is no infallible system, I think we currently have decently efficient solution (with sizable trade-offs of course, as you rely on the user having a smartphone that is supported, with a decent camera, decent lighting etc.)
It is not - you get access to healthcare at all times (employed or otherwise, young or old) and simply pay a slightly higher tax rate when you are working to pay for it.

Again, I think you're poorly sourced. As sourced in the last comment, in the bottom 50% of US households, credit card debt is 50% of total debt (higher for lower percentiles, but the FED doesn't break that out), and as this chart [1] shows, credit card debt is priced independent of inflation.

Where are banks using inflation to exploit the working class, exactly?

You only need to understand their positions if you want to argue against it. Since like 5 people actually believe in a flat earth (there are a lot of memers) it probably isn't worth the effort to learn about their positions. For more mainstream issues you should absolutely understand all sides of an issue to the best of your abilities. Many people only understand generals and miss a lot of nuance when it comes to their opponent's views.

If you are going to argue with a flat earther they will not accept the arguments you will make if you just argue for a round earth. You can show them some math, images from space, eyewitness testimony or whatever you want, but they have almost certainly seen it all before. They were unconvinced by those arguments in the past and you will likely not be any more convincing to them. The only way to convince them is to tear down their arguments one by one which means you have to actually know what they believe. If you tear down strawman arguments they don't even believe they won't change their mind.

Just to be clear, when you say it is not up to you to figure out how they got deluded. I agree. You don't have to know what books or videos or whatever they consumed. You only need to understand the views themselves.
They already sell the data to anyone who wants to pay, they have no moral high ground here at all, the only extra "protection" you'd get is that companies would have to pay Microsoft more money to abuse your data.

I think it has to do with the high short-term lethality of cancer combined with the fact that many benign conditions can mimic cancer symptoms.
Generally sports that are about controlling the ball (or puck) will be more about superstars and less about teams relative to other games. At any given time one person has the ball and that person has an outsized effect on the play in that moment. If one player is significantly better than the rest of the team, you can make sure they're the one doing most of the playing.

With baseball the pitcher of course plays a similar role, they have a major outsized effect since they are involved in every single defensive play, and in a critical way. But they can't physically play very much. And then on offense the best you can do is put your best folks at the start of the lineup so they get an extra at-bat over the course of a game.

(Of course none of this justifies the claim that only in baseball does team-fandom make sense; fandom isn't a logical construct to begin with and doesn't need some logical reason to exist.)
That's not a profitable strategy. The opposite of noise is noise.

They also have Simplenote. I think they also own or owned Tumblr.

Other than privacy (which I guess didn’t change for better) I think Simplenote has been better with them. Improved.

It’s pretty much the only note taking service left out there that supports stable and fast plain text note taking and has other supported third party apps - especially native apps; unlike alternatives which have electron wrappers and no third party apps.

This depends on the state; Medicaid expansion is doing good things for the poorest people in states where it exists.

The US benefit system is tilted towards the poor, old, and people with children (distant 3rd.) It has some bad welfare cliffs for disabled people, and is the worst for middle class self-employed who aren't on their parents' insurance.

Unfortunately this last group includes all online writers and popular social media users, which is why they pretend it doesn't exist for anyone.
