Depending on your social circle (or that cross-section of the general public that one encounters on Twitter and Reddit), then we may be entering – as society does cyclically – an era where any “escape” from modern problems is viewed as offensive. I have seen this recently even in literature forums where poets who wrote abstract modernist verse are now labeled as problematic because their work does nothing to tackle the problems that BIPOC and LGBT face. It would be no surprise if gamers, too, were challenged for the games they play being supposedly unhelpful.

> I just don't want them advertising to me, or selling my data.

You can get pretty close to that by buying YT Premium [if you watch YouTube] and using an adblocker everywhere else, and this gives Google the non-ad-based monetary incentive to profile your viewing habits to show you more videos it thinks you'll like without optimizing for Ads.
You're trusting Google to do what? Google is not trying to attack you, but they are using a different threat model than what you describe. In particular Google is in the business of serving ads to you, that they do not author themselves, and are written with the assumption that you are not blindly running all their code ring0.
Those are good points. Maybe it does have to do with our galactic orbit.

We can hope this story blows up enough that someone else, perhaps at Amazon, reveals some interesting information. But we’re not in control of whether that happens.

I do find the rush to make landlords whole a little strange. Isn’t the concept here that you’re making a speculative investment and the risk is what justifies the profit?
That's not what I meant. I meant "projecting" something like 'Mig-31-007@Mach3@somealtitude@somedirection ultrabadaboom' via ADS-B without actually any plane there. For the lulz, you know? (by means of microdrone, from satellite, buoys, their own ECM-planes, whatever...)

Meanwhile NAhTOd scrambling interceptors, AWACS, whatever, because can't really trust the primary radar, no?
You'd think for all that they'd be able to afford an outside camera capable of recording license plates.
I was in a similar rut. Not just professionally but academically as well for most of my life. Motivation had to be forced to do more than just enough to blend into the crowd. It took me saying enough is enough in my 40's to go get tested. Turns out I have ADHD. Getting therapy to deal with anxiety and depression stuff as well as getting on Adderall has done wonders.

I'm not suddenly working 40+ hours always in the zone. What has happened is that I've been better able to enjoy/engage with coworkers around helping them. Instead of feeling stuck and anxious, it's been easier to feel at ease at work and less fixated on metrics or usefulness. That engagement with my coworkers coupled with lowering how much effort was needed to do work that was previously seen as "busy" work has done wonders for my outlook about work.

In my case the benefit/problem of hyperfixation due to ADHD meant that when I had an interesting bit of work in front of me I could knock it out the park and it didn't feel like any effort. Those infrequent home runs were enough to make up for the times where I just couldn't be bothered to do other less interesting things. Didn't want to do them and because no one was asking me to do them it was ok that I didn't. Deep down I knew I was overcompensating in my strong areas to avoid the uninteresting items. This may not be you but if it is you may want to think on it. It's helped me outside of work as well. Parenting and dating.
To be fair, nobody was under any illusion that this valuation had anything to do with the technology WhatsApp developed. Any half competent team could recreate WhatsApp. The price was for 1 billion active users. That's a little harder to get.

I'd agree that it's a poor sole reason to date, but its definitely something to think about if you really want children. Two of my girlfriends in their mid 30s are 'technically' able to get pregnant but functifinally unable due to PCOS - its biologically possible for them to get pregnant (handful of viable eggs left, occasional good cycles). Not a lot of women get advice as teens like 'you have PCOS, you're going to really struggle to have children and its only going to get worse if you wait'.

Are some portion of sold pelotons "used", without disclosing this to customers?

Seems like their customers would not be happy if that was the case. Conversely, would be extremely wasteful if they don't.

What do they do with returned equipment?
I'm not sure how that matters unless you are paying taxes on an accrual basis. Which you technically can do as an individual.
I'm sorry, did you somehow blank out and miss out on the part where I said it's no longer beneficial for Russia to take neighbouring states as long as they do not pose a threat to the country's security.

If a neighbour turns anti-Russian, joins a group whose sole reason is to be against Russia, and installs military bases right at your doorstep - yes, I'd say Russia has a right to intervene, and that doesn't take into account how Eastern Ukraine is very much pro-Russia and populace seems to identify as ethnically Russian and be okay with being part of Russia.

US does much worse things for much less - look at CIA getting rid of democratic governments as soon as they decide not to play in US's favour and installing a more favourable regime to their interests.

About SETI. Please correct me but I'm under assumption that the signals they're looking for are basically analog radio waves similar to our old TV and radio broadcasts?

But digital communication, especially when encrypted, would completely blend with the background noise.. right? Could we even detect our own modern signals with SETI?

And communication based on quantum entanglement etc way more advanced stuff SETI would completely miss + we don't even know all the different ways they could be communicating. Our ideas are reflecting our on state of technology, right?

Hiding a news story like this specific example? No, I do not believe Google did that. Not for a second. That is absurd.

How they handle possible spammers, people posting dangerous medical advice, etc is a bit different, no? I'm not letting them off the hook entirely, but this example is simply ridiculous. What benefit would they get from it, and at what risk? (i.e. disgruntled employee blows the whistle on their behavior)

And really, Breitbart? Omg.
It's a requirement to take the legal minimum (20 days), but most companies offer 25 or so so in practice you can usually carry over 5.

I believe it's in order to nullify the ability for a company to apply alternative pressures to stop people taking their entitled holiday.

I don’t understand California’s finances at all.

Only a year ago they declared a budget crisis with a $54 billion deficit. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/california-budget-crisis-gavin-...

Now they have a $75 billion budget surplus, 1/3 of which came from emergency federal funds: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/california-budget-su...

I suppose paying off past-due rent is fair to landlords who were required to house tenants rent-free and it could be argued that it’s coming from the federal COVID funds, but that’s still a huge chunk of budget to spend.
From what I've seen, bad PR forces a company to make some bullshit changes that rarely, if ever, address the actual issue.

"Due to the allegations of sexual misconduct, we have forced everyone in the company to go through mandatory training"

"Sorry for polluting the river, we've donated a fraction of our annual profits to a non-profit and we'll do a half-assed job of cleaning up the mess even though the damage has already been done"

"In response to the recent report of terrible worker conditions, we are making changes at these locations to offer mental health services and an additional day off each year, we will continue to evaluate the needs of the employees and make changes where necessary"

People get outraged, they see an apology and some half-assed attempt to put the issue to rest and then people forget about it.

"Webtech's (Electron, specifically) the only reason cross-platform desktop GUI programs are now cheap & easy enough to be viable"

"Well, no, we've had that for a long time, especially if you consider the performance compromises of Electron or in-browser 'apps' to exist within the acceptable range. Electron does make mimicking this year's UI trends as easy on the desktop as on the Web, and doing so on every platform at once, and that was hard before."

"Right, but do those earlier solutions support the web as a platform?"

"... huh?"

See why I'm confused about where you're taking this? It's like someone claimed that airplanes were the only way to travel by machine, and I pointed out that, for one thing, trains existed before that, and now you're asking me if trains can fly. No—and, again, obviously so unless we've got some seriously different life experience, here—but that's... a complete non-sequitur to the conversation already in progress.

ammon,

how do I reply to recruiter contacts? applied to a job, received a request for interview from company. Nowhere to reply on the platform? How do I get in contact with them?

In theory, it is also broken.

It practice, it appears to be slightly harder to break than RSA for the same security level as we define it in non-quantum computing, but not by much.
This is great. I wish every binary format had a visualizer like this. Or maybe even a generic tool that can take in descriptions of binary formats to create new annotations on the fly (like Wireshark).

The above comment has so many levels of generalisation and misconceptions that I wouldn't even know where to start debating it.

Not all fruit nor vegetables are healthy, unless you consider the healthy ones only (how do you determine that scientifically?) then it's just nonsense.

Also coffee is a seed first, and seeds in general are potentially the most toxic, as evolution would prefer seeds to grow, instead of being eaten. The fact that the toxic compounds of a seed give us a nice buzz and don't kill us instead is a pretty nice coincidence.

And let's not even go into the "are fruits really healthy?" debate which is long, as reality is often more complex than quick slogans such as "eat colours and be healthy."
Graduate students often get payed both a salary and free tuition.

No journal forbids collages from paying their grad students in order to publish said students, which is what the NCAA is doing.
Yes but as a landlord I am supposed to be able to remove a non-paying tenant. They took away that ability, so now landlord HAD TO provide free housing to someone while still making mortgage payments.
The government changed the rules of the investment, though. Before the eviction moratorium, landlords could at least predict the maximum amount of rent they would lose due to non-payment before they could evict someone and find new tenants. The moratorium removed that option, changing the risk profile dramatically without warning. That’s the issue.
Seems like the pendulum is finally starting to swing away from geometric/grotesque sans-serif fonts for wordmarks.
Previous cores had no vector support because the V extension that provides for it was nowhere close to being standardized. In fact it's yet to be ratified at present, so one may want to wait for that before choosing a V-capable core for real, actual use.

I find these tools to be the ultimate form of unhelpful navel-gazing. If you already feel good, what’s the point? If you’re feeling low, you become obsessed and frustrated.

Personally - and I know this isn’t for everyone - I find a combination of open-ended journaling, prayer and meditation, and talking with people I love and trust to be much more effective at achieving balance in life.

I'm currently working on some Amiga projects for my own amusement. For me, a lot of it is a feeling of unfinished business. I grew up with the Amiga and wanted to be a part of that scene but I didn't have the money for books and development tools.

I also prefer old style game development as opposed to using frameworks like Unity or Unreal engine. It's a different feeling when you have complete control of the entire machine and everything you need is in one or two reference manuals. It's a more focussed and immersive experience. You can really get in the zone. Also, It's a lot easier to do acceptable artwork, especially for an 8bit machine, and with modern tools you can do things that couldn't be done back in the day.

Also, I've been involved in indie development for modern platforms and made about as much money as I would have releasing an Amiga game in 2021 :) So now, I figure I will just please myself and work on platforms I enjoy.

That is not what it means. It is unlikely at any age to get pregnant in one menstrual cycle.

"Each month, the average 30-year-old woman has about a 20% chance of getting pregnant. A 40-year-old only has a 5% chance of getting pregnant each month."

If FB or some other big actor were to define identity standards, the standards would at least be friendly towards their operations, if not optimized for it.

Risks would include, privacy concerns, from obvious to not yet identified; the standards not being good at things other interested parties may like; mechanisms that encourage/require normal users to delegate some functions to private third parties; mechanisms that make it hard for normal users to use their identities as they choose; mechanisms that place more burdens on the user for retail fraud ("identity theft", for instance); the list goes on.

For more, consider the ways that ID is used against people today. Now apply automation and a world-wide attack surface, and do not consider mitigations that might have an effect on some big actor's bottom line.
Conversely if you keep your site simple enough the user can apply styling as needed.
I'm 100% convinced the appeal of Electron is that it makes chasing the latest UI trends month-to-month as easy on the desktop as it is on the web. Designers and businesses (and lots of developers) consider this essential, these days, for whatever reason. The above (yes, including the business side) will all complain about how a real desktop program using built-in or otherwise sane-and-stable GUI elements that haven't changed for 5 years looks too "old".
The article is obviously using SimCity as a starting point for a discussion.

That said, to quote the article:

> SimCity has been used and is being used as educational tool. Now, more than ever, is shaping the way a lot of people understand or misunderstand city planning. This is a recent initiative, a modified educational version.

> The original SimCity is now open source and was included in the OLPC - One Laptop per Child (the cheap laptops created by the MIT for education in developing countries). We are literally shipping our ideas of cities to the third world. Because of this educational uses and because it claimed to be a simulation of a really existing system and not “just a game”, SimCity has been criticized from pretty much every angle.

Of course the map is not the territory. But what exactly is different between the map and the territory? What are you missing when you examine the former and not the latter?
