I mean, my school where I went could only afford four days a week. We had so many budget cuts that the school decided the only way to go forward was to cut the fifth day. This lasted for years and I don’t know if they’ve ever returned to a normal schedule.
It sounds like I had a similar experience as you, I'm also 6'4". I had the largest Aeron and it was terrible, especially the hard plastic sides that pressed/cut into my outer thighs. The seat hurt after an hour or two without any real support under, and there was just no configuration that could be done to make any of it comfortable.

I'm not really capable of not-manspreading in order to minimize the Aeron seat side lip pain so one day I brought a belt to the office to tie my legs together so I could relax ... which helped but was just as ridiculous as it sounds. So I just went and bought my own chair instead for my home office and never went back to the office again.

Thanks for mentioning the Titan, it looks like my next chair!
Yeah, but at least he puts his money where his mouth is. His fund has huge puts on treasuries, and calls on food staples. Not just a PR move, his investments actually reflect his prediction.

That's good news for Apple. How's the rest of their supply chain looking?
You are over-analyzing allegory.

Zizek does it too, but he is entertainer-philosopher. Some of his readers take him too seriously too.

I like Zizek, but you should not try to value him as a analytic philosopher who thinks things carefully trough. He has the ability to take unique and insightful viewpoints.
Presumably the asterix denotes "actually true"? ;-)
I highly doubt they'd get involved at that scale. You're talking about a major conflict. One in particular the US would not like to get involved in. The US never even did that with Russia. What makes you think the US would protect Taiwan? US military strategy for the allied Asian countries has always been "treat them as a buffer" and hasn't changed. If they got involved it would be an international incident seeing as two major nuclear powers are at war. There would enumerable politicians also hesitant to instigate that conflict. The US sat by while Britain was being invaded in WW2 and needed ridiculous political cozying up to even get troops over to the front in WWI. Why would they stick their necks out for Taiwan?
For some time now, I've been using a CSS mod for Firefox to put the window controls on the same row as the navigation buttons and address bar, and I use the Tree Tabs extension to get a vertical tab bar on the right, which I overlap with VS Code's file navigation so that the meat of both apps are in view even if they are overlapping.

At some point, an update made the window controls disappear. I still haven't fixed it, but I like my toolbar being as small as possible to give me more vertical screen real estate. I don't mind this change to Safari tbh. A big draw of Macs is also the 16:10 aspect ratio.
Seems weird to single Amazon out, since they are far from unique in their approach. The most interesting anecdote was the one about an Apple Sony collaboration, in which Apple wanted to do their usual careful design, and Sony said that was a waste of time, just throw a bunch of products into the market, see what works, and iterate. Seems clear now which companies approach works best for consumer electronics. Although I’m not sure there are many other companies that follow Apple’s approach.
Offshore profits are why it's nearly useless to lower taxes and expect the wealthiest US companies with international holdings to pay more than they already do.

Comparing nominal corporate tax rates between the US and other companies is nearly useless. As things stand now, for every dollar in corporate tax collected the US people pay about $18.

Nominal corporate tax rates have pretty much zero to do with manufacturing moving overseas. That was always about lowering labor and other operating costs.
Don’t the new M1 macs still have 2 thunderbolt buses, even if they only have 2 ports? So with an adapter they’d be the same as the 4 port counterparts.
Depends on what you do. On the other hand, the performance gains were massive enough for all Intel Macbooks to feel like quicksand and I just can’t imagine having to work with one. It’s like going back to HDD after having an SSD.
Engineering licenses aren't about innovation or progress. They're about making sure that the same lessons aren't constantly relearned at great cost to customers and society.

Why is it a near impossible task to setup a new Windows computer with standard applications that protect user privacy (Firefox being the easiest example here) without first giving away personal information or creating another fucking account that will either occupy headspace in perpetuity or devolve into an abscessed entry point?

As proof that no one with any intelligence at Microsoft thought this through... I can't even install a downloaded Windows 10 upgrade without first signing into a Microsoft account because it's running in Windows 'S' Mode which can't be disabled without first signing into a Microsoft account and Windows 'S' Mode (for security and performance reasons) won't install the Windows 10 upgrade because it only runs Microsoft-verified apps.

Taiwan isn't Afghanistan.

It doesn't have a marital culture. It isn't large. It doesn't have especially rugged or inhospitable terrain. It doesn't have religious fundamentalism. It doesn't have a bottom-heavy population pyramid full of young men willing to fight a decades-long insurgency.

There's not going to be a Taiwanese insurgency after the deed is done. If China takes control of Taipei, the game is over. We need to help Taiwan before it gets to that point.
When someone has lived 70+ years and done fine for most of those years. What is the use for them to learn what an "icon" on the "desktop" is, and why should they care about "browsers"?

This very much feels like justification for victim blaming.
I know this is so different, but I can't help but think of the 1950's DoD Heavy Press Program[0]. I think about these special industrial monsters a lot when I read about semi fabs.

In WW2 after examining the components from aircraft kills, german wing spars would often survive. It was discovered that Germany used unique forged alloy wing spars to achieve their excellent aircraft performance, perplexing allied engineers. These wing spars' strength and weight is critical to the structural properties of modern air frames. Without them, jet air craft like the f-15 would have been impossible.

Machining these advanced alloy parts proved difficult, expensive, error prone, and impossible to manufacture but a die forged alloy wing spar was stronger, lighter, cheaper and beyond the industrial capability of every allied nation. We did not have the metallurgical technology to create such a large forged alloy wing spar in 1945.

After the war, the US and Soviets recovered designs for the extremely large press assemblies required for advanced air frames. In the 1950s, a huge national program was geared up to create absolutely massive Heavy Press machines. The Soviets had a massive 30,000lb press for these parts, and we created a couple of monstrous 50,000lb machines[1] that are still in operation today. These things are older than we are and still out there cranking out air frame parts today for modern air frames in 2021.

Without this kind of national investment in this kind of unique manufacturing, we would be unable to fly without importing 747 parts from wherever they could be created.

As a typical French, happily eating snails, frogs and strong cheese, I find it a bit silly to take offence.
> I'd be willing to pay between $10 and $20 USD

I'd argue that seems grossly optimistic for most users. Considering that many useful tools are free and most people balk at paying $6.99 for an app.

How about a $0 starter tier for max. of x monitors, with a max freq. of every y hrs... then move up to a one-time fee that is more generous, but still constrained, and finally have a monthly fee that allows unlimited.
Oh the place definitely needed remodeling. It had been a restaurant for many years and didn't see an ounce of love in that time. But I'm also certain he went overboard and bought the best of everything. Strangely enough it seemed twice as big, even though he didn't add any square feet.

The location isn't cursed, it was taken over by another restaurant that has been open a few years now.
Doesn’t that address fanout, not chaining?

Chaining RPC calls requires something more sophisticated.
Hopefully it will happen. And, while we're properly reversing course on bad policy, let's start building some nuclear power plants, too.
If the M1 iPad Pro launch was any indication, it was about three weeks from preorder to first delivery. It could have been scheduled that way to allow some flex time, it could have been a result of supply chain constraints. Either way, that's about a one week addition to the typical pattern. That said, that's not a rigorous way to look at their supply chain situation.

I'd guess Apple is pretty solid on their iPad and iPhone lineups. Mac is probably a mixed bag and M1X chips in the fall refresh may lead to longer delays in getting product than folks are used to.

Ah ok I guess my confusion is from the fact that there's no explicit "string" being passed around with this library, but the concept of a payload makes sense.
> e.g. some distracted guy on his cell phone accidentially rushing out in front of some car, getting killed in the process and traumatizing some driver

I think this comment demonstrates the perverse value system I’m commenting against. I don’t mean this as an insult to you, merely to point out how people have been programmed to think people shouldn’t be able to live in a city without being terrified of their lives so we don’t mildly annoy drivers.

The scenario that would actually be likely to happen is the exact opposite. A distracted driver running over and killing a pedestrian that’s crossing on a green light or a zebra crossing. That happens very regularly.

Cars have no business driving faster than 15-20mph on a city steet.
How is it required? In Sweden jaywalking as a crime does not exist and vehicles are required to give way to pedestrians crossing the street.

The problems you describe seem absent from my experience living all my life in Sweden's second largest city with plenty of pedestrians and motor vehicles crossing the same streets.
Thank you, placed hold at my library.
No, it can take a few minutes. A big factor is the diameter of the pipes used to carry the hot water. See: This Old House videos on the topic. Bigger is NOT better here; a larger pipe may take several minutes to empty out of cold water before hot water starts reaching you.

In the rental house we just moved from a couple months ago, the last homeowner did several amateur projects (or hired a handyman who worked at that level). They fitted a larger, elevated water heater, but also "upgraded" the water pipes in the attic to a ridiculously large diameter. Between that and the rental property management fitting water-saving low-flow fixtures, you could turn on a hot water faucet and go boil tea on an electric kettle (or something) in the meantime. By the time you're done drinking the tea, the running water might be getting warm.
That requires individual states to be tax and business friendly. The Northeast and Pacific rim no longer make any attempt at this. The rust belt tries sometimes, but flip politically too often for companies to make big investments.

There's nothing meaningful congress can do to order states to be friendly to business.
In the 1980s there was a proposal in the California legislature to license software engineers. They basically took an EE-related test (developed by the IEEE, little surprise) and stirred some software in there. I don't remember what software methodology flavor-of-the-month they rubberstamped, but I assure you that it was forgettable.

It was a bare-faced, rent-seeking money grab from some entrenched licensing board. I mean, I've used Ohm's Law in my software career, and I've made smoke come out of things on a professional basis. But it's hardly necessary for a security engineer to know about impedance matching.
I've stayed in places where it can take a minute or longer for the hot water to show up.
Hey, missed that, which part do you want?

In general, if you google "measured performance ground source heat pump" and "measured performance air source heat pump", you can find studies.

Most of the GHSP studies are consistent. Some of the ASHP studies are inconsistent with each other.
Why would a bootloader ever be considered part of the same program—they don't even ever run at the same time.

Also, this person (https://github.com/prusa3d/Prusa-Firmware-Buddy/issues/1440#...) misread the GPL, when they said this:

> but the license clearly states that it is not an aggregate if they are combined to form a larger program in or on a storage or distribution medium

The GPL very much does not say that:

> which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an “aggregate”

If you define "teaching style" to mean things like being in the classroom, but that's not the usual definition. The usual definition is explaining things in different ways.

The students around them (who can sit still) would benefit from not being in the same classroom as students who are disruptive, obviously. The disruptive students might benefit from something like shorter classes and time spent outside doing sports or other physical activities that don't require sitting. But let's not pretend that they will learn the same material. They will learn less material, at least until they mature enough so that they have more self-control and are able to sit still, which might not happen before they leave high school, or it may only happen in their senior year, etc. Thus you put them into a different high school entirely or at least a different diploma track.
Nice tool, is easily to understand and very intuitive
Double tap and drag. As in tap-and-release, then tap-and-hold.
Much appreciated! That's true, and lots of the tools that do feature text annotation can be quite restrictive in that they don't allow you to add attributes / repeatedly annotate the same span of text.

Support for PDFs and other doc types is definitely on the backlog, but I keep holding off due to the challenges you mentioned.
Tax rates have a lot to do with the location of manufacturing; highly automated manufacturing can really minimize the impact of labor rates, and operating costs are frequently lower in the USA. One of the best recent changes made to the tax code was to allow for 100% depreciation of some capital expenditures within one year; reducing corporate tax rates would have the impact of extending this effect.

I've been hearing that about ARM for more than a decade. Whats different now?

You can ban the sat and grades and still measure for academic rigor. For example those who placed in a state math competition are likely to have higher academic abilities. Or those who had an article published in the news…etc.

All this does is make grades no longer a measure used. And allow the wealthy to better position their kids at the detriment of the middle class.

California’s strive to force outcome hurts the middle class the most. I just don’t get it.
Introducing the direct dependency is exactly what you want to avoid and what event buses provide.

With your approach, you are coupling views and model with n*m links, with an event bus, it's just n+m. Much easier to decouple your logic.

I do agree with you that I'm not a fan of the loss of static typing that event buses usually introduce.
Thanks! I will check the issue.
In contrast, i'd be surprised if x86 were to disappear in 5 or 10 years from the mainstream. Personally, i think that there's too much similarly old software that's build first and foremost for x86, porting which would take bunches of time and effort.

Furthermore, ARM is only big in the consumer markets as a part of SoC designs, which are bad for a variety of reasons, notably, limited upgrade possibilities. For example, i cannot go to an Internet store within my country and purchase an ARM-compatible motherboard and buy an ARM CPU separately. As for Apple's M1 offering - i think it's a good start to demonstrate the feasibility of ARM, but i'd say that ARM will most likely remain popular mostly for phones and tablets.

I'd bet on maybe another 20-40 years as the timeframe for ARM to replace x86 and for the latter to become irrelevant.
As someone else with a small laptop display, I run everything in fullscreen mode, and toggle out whenever I need to use the controls. If you’re hiding the controls anyway, why not just use fullscreen mode? Then, when you want the controls, you don’t need to have them hidden in a bunch of layers, they can just all be there.

Hey, whatever if we just made all the browser controls a modal or fullscreen context of it’s own?
This change to me feels very touch-oriented.

If you're touching a standard browser's URL bar, you might touch a tab instead (and vice-versa). But if you put them on the same horizontal plane, this problem is solved.

And from a touch perspective, the URL bar has a ton of wasted space; you don't need more than the length of your average URL as a touch target, so all the horizontal space that comes after it is essentially unused.

I think this is yet another way in which Apple is preparing to make macOS touch-enabled.
I know you are just trolling, but I still reply:

Past: Mao had the chance to conquer Taiwan, however, the causalties appeared him as too high, hence, this "goal" was never persuaded.

Present: Despite some very loud hardliners wishing for the Chinese invasion of Taiwan, there is currently no indication that China is preparing for it:

"Milley added that he thought China had little intention to take Taiwan by force: There’s no reason to do it militarily, and they know that. So, I think the probability is probably low, in the immediate, near-term future."

"The PLA currently lacks the required amphibious lift, logistics, and materiel for a robust cross-Strait invasion and shows no urgency to achieve it,” Andrew Erickson, a professor at the US Naval War College"

I know it is boring for many that wish the evil China to do something really evil. But this won't happen, it seems.

I disagree with this statement on multiple fronts. On the first level of the onion RAID1 is for high reliability and BTRFS has historically low reliability but if you peel back that layer you are presenting the ability to transition from BTRFS RAID1 to RAID5 as an appealing feature of BTRFS vs ZFS and yet this just isn't so.

BTRFS has been promising usable RAID5 since 2009 when it was "heading for 1.0" and yet among the most recent developments not but 3 months ago was to add the following warning to btrfs-progs on creation or conversion.

"RAID5/6 support has known problems is strongly discouraged to be used besides testing or evaluation,"

Worse this feature was presented as usable around 2011/12 before being revealed to be unfixably data eating without substantial rewrites in 2016 and 5 years later remains so.

Your hardware might need to be replaced before you can avail yourself of the benefit you posit.

Meanwhile an approach that would actually work on both BTRFS and ZFS would be to add 2 drives to go from RAID1 to RAID10.

The last peel of onion is complaining about down votes. This invites more down votes. If I had to guess people down voted you because you presented a feature that has been a massive pain point for BTRFS as a proposed advantage.
You can't always use full screen, often you need to have multiple windows open next to each other, and that's where minimizing chrome is especially important, because your windows are smaller now but the size of the chrome remains the same.
