The union in this case isn't some cash-poor startup with people filling multiple roles that they aren't qualified for. They certainly have more than enough resources and experience to do much better... or, as the case may be, to start with a different location that would have been more receptive.
I'm not sure what iteration of Chappelle's jokes they are addressing in the indiewire piece, but here's what I could find, and it seems very different in tone https://youtu.be/r_EXb8_8xlM

First joke aside (which I'd guess is older material than the rest) if you stick with him and don't cherrypick quotes, it's almost entirely self-deprecating. Even in the Caitlyn Jenner joke, the punchline rests on him acknowledging his own failure to resist his impulses. Don't forget the layer where he is acting out the role of a horrible, insensitive person throughout this so the audience can laugh at his oversimplification and ignorance. That's a big part of comedy and it does not translate over to quotations in prose.

Hopefully I didn't kill the frog, but he's absolutely not punching down from what I could find.
I was the person at Google who originally set them on the path of mirroring large amounts of Genomics data in Google Cloud. The SRA was one example- the NIH serves it up on a very clunky and slow (no good for high throughput workflows) so many people, including Google, make a controlled-access mirror in GCS/S3/Blobstore.

In all cases, the mirror should reflect what's served on SRA, which means that if there's deletions, GCS should delete it as well (as soon as technically possible). It's unclear whether Google set up the infra to delete items from buckets (they should have, but it was probably a low priority).

I wonder what other deleted sequences can be recovered from the bucket. I hope the author told the Google Cloud admins about their problem.

It's a stupid question.

"Why not move away from your friends, social circles, health and legal systems you (ideally) know how to use, family, home, and professional network in order to start from scratch in one of the most physically and emotionally demanding industries, just because your customers aren't labelled criminals there?"

Then crack down on human trafficking. Making something illegal that should not be illegal to solve a different issue should be one of the last options, not the first one.
The proof is in the pudding. Apple doesn't really sell products; they sell a lifestyle. This is in contrast to almost all other tech and PC brands which sell on the tech itself.

Because tech cannot compete with lifestyle, Apple is in a different business. Clearly, it's a profitable one. Changing to an open model or competing on raw hardware or software is never going to be their thing.

BTW, this is not to denigrate their hardware in any way as much of it is great. But, especially in recent years, the company has compromised the usefulness of its hardware through its walled garden approach to software.

There is no absolute acceptance of "using their bodies as they see fit" or "my body my rules". It is just a made up rule no civil society accepts. Otherwise people can walk nakedly everywhere they want. There is simply not any constitutional right like that.

What is similar is that you can't do everything you want in your own house, like experimenting on bombs or making drugs, etc.

I am not totally against sex work. I am just pointing out the reasoning is flawed.
Electricity is less than 20% of their countrys energy plus they are well positioned for hydro which is only possible certain places.
I would have expected Synology to be included.

What we need is something like iOS TimeCapsule. Let the Phone do the Photo Management on Devices, and have an on site ( Home ) DataBackup as well as offsite ( iCloud ) Data Backup.

Apple could even make iCloud Backup subscription a requirement for TimeCapsule to function.
But it's unlikely to train on user inputs/outputs, because they wouldn't know if they were correct
It doesn’t hold up if you talk about cis women either. I know plenty who cannot have children. Menopause also then would make women not-women, right?
"Massive" Honsdale battery is capable of supplying much less than 1% of grid power in Australia. An installation of that size could help at the margins to prevent some brownout events, but don't overestimate the capacity of batteries compared to grid demand. It looks like Costa Rica has about 3600 MW of generating capacity. The Hornsdale battery is good for 150 MW.
The US never installed a puppet dictator in Costa Rica or enforced embargos, as opposed to all its neighbours.

The VSE metric implicitly rewards strategic voting, because strategic voting works. By "works" I mean it helps the individual voter maximize their chance of having their preferences reflected in the outcome.

> VSE cannot measure:
> - Any desirable characteristics of a voting method
> that do not directly relate to outcome (who wins).

This includes, for example, a value judgment that says "strategic voting is less desirable than honest voting".
Personally, I think we're going to see a change in the trend of relying on two superpowers (USA, China) for tech and innovation. For the past years, it's been increasingly obvious that the political landscape can change almost overnight.

Europe has also been lacking a proper VC scene and culture, but this seems to have changed more in the past years.

So, don't expect the next 20-30 years to be identical to the previous decades.
I think for some people, yeah, they wouldn’t be happy in Iowa. But pretty much top to bottom millennials are being bombarded with the idea that they need to have a college-degree required job in NYC to be happy. And I think for a lot of millennials in the middle of the spectrum, this is about adjusting expectations more than unbreakable requirements.

The fact that people are complaining about the cost of kids and housing is telling. The media glorifies the Sex in the City lifestyle, but I think most normal people once they hit their 30s want to have a family and a house. What they want in life is closer to Des Moines than Greenwich Village. It’s really hard to do that in NYC and SF, and I think our culture has done a poor job educating millennials about what alternatives are out there.

>If we’re not allowed to debate the veracity and interpretation of stats

That is a long way from your claim that all stat "can be manipulated to show whatever we like".

The way to show some stat is false, or even manipulated, is to demonstrate that claim by using better evidence or stats. The way is not to simply hand wave that all stats can be manipulated to "to show whatever we like".

If you want to claim BLS stats are not true (debating the veracity), then provide better sourced ones. I am unaware of any agency that does a wider, longer running, better sourced, better documented system for the relevant stats I mentioned. If you have one, provide it. If you cannot, then accept the BLS as the best available and create a belief based on that evidence.

You claimed wages have fallen. I pointed out quite valid reasons for that using relevant factors that are counter to the narrative you want, and, that taking more factors into account, this is a not unreasonable outcome.

Simply implying that I or others are manipulating facts to reach any conclusion we want, without perhaps providing yet more factors or evidence, is not debate.
We expect men to pay for dates. We expect men to be the primary breadwinner in a marriage. Marriage is the only contract that can be annulled if it's not consummated with an act of sex.

And then we vilify sex work and torture sex workers on the theory that sex in exchange for money is A Bad Thing.

Our logic is idiotic and our world is broken.
That's a good point. I've made the same choice. I don't know that we amount to a large number who choose Android out of any principle. If nothing else, it has to outweigh principles against Google/Play Services--I'm not on AOSP.

I suspect that Apple does in fact make enough for this to be a no-brainer at the moment. It will take a shift in general public sentiment (and to some extent behaviour) to tip the balance. They wouldn't wait until it's strictly financially better because trust is hard to regain after losing it.

You can do the same cash experiment with most office workers and the effects might surprise you. You can say garbage management jobs, sweeping streets or even bureaucratic positions are the result of one's poverty.

Contrary to what everyone else in this thread says, I think you're just normal. This idea that you should always have "high" phases is asinine. Obviously, if you're low all the time get help but when you're working 40+ hours a week at the same job your entire life to put money in the pockets of someone else's business; you're going to get tired of it and not be motivated all the time. Take all these recommendations to get meds and comments about you having a mental illness with a grain of salt.

Another suggestion would be to stop placing so much importance on your job. Find other hobbies. Most people work to make a money, bonus points if you find it to be your passion but I don't think that's the norm. Accept that there will be days where you're just going through the motions.
> In my view, the main reason for making prostitution legal is to allow victims of trafficking and sex crimes to seek justice against their abusers without themselves being prosecuted. This doesn't mean that prostitution isn't still a negative and that we shouldn't try to eliminate it where possible.

And that makes the police behavior in the OP make much more sense: the goal of legalized prostitution (and criminalizing all related activities) wasn't to make sex work legal, it was only to reduce the leverage traffickers have over the trafficked.

There has always been tension amongst women’s rights advocates regarding sex work. One faction held (paraphrasing) that sex work was liberating (economically), the other that sex work was denigrating and exploitative (sex objects).

Yes, exactly (and why I described it as limited).

The physics thread (with interleaved joystick read code on PC) did have to yield back to the main/graphics thread. That was no issue in our case; I've not thought deeply about it, but it seems like the method is likely extensible to do context switches among multiple [unaware/non-cooperating] threads.
I think it's important to talk about how it's legalized and what the actual goals are.

You're right, making activities illegal whether it's drug use, alcohol or prostitution seems to exacerbate the problem and hurt the people these laws are intended to help. That said, I don't think there's any reason we can't legalize or partially legalize prostitution while still admitting that it is a net negative for society and it should be discouraged.

They also invested early in preserving their nature and establishing parks. Additionally, all their beaches are public. It’s illegal to build a fence on the ocean. These have contributed to large tourism income.
The original article was comparing it to a well-tailored suit. The equipment suggested certainly isn't any more than that.

And of course it's overkill for meetings for most people. It's for people whose profession is their appearance in part -- streamers, interviewees, presenters, hosts, salespeople, certain executives, etc.

For most people, a tiny clip-on ring light together with a cheap lapel mic, maybe $50 combined, would provide biggest bang for least effort/cost/space. And you don't even need the light if you're lucky enough to be facing a window and it's daytime (you always need a mic though). Plus making sure your built-in webcam is at eye level, not down below.

As for space, fortunately everything large in this world of equipment comes on tripods, and is foldable to flat. I store all my large items (ring light, mic stand, laptop stand, backdrop) in a 9"-wide sliver of space in the side of a closet, and the small things (webcam, webcam mount, mic) in a desk drawer. I've got the setup and takedown processes both down to 5 minutes.
Human trafficking is it's own problem, it's a constant. It would be rendered a moot point if laws were permissive enough to allow sex workers to organize in such a way that they could operate under high quality conditions, e.g. reputable brothels.

The foreign mob who traffics would then have to compete with institutions that have a reputation among the populace for good working conditions.

The issues surrounding drugs are similar. Narco states and mob control don't disappear overnight from legalization, but the increase in legitimate avenues takes over their market share over time.

Even in countries were laws are relatively more permissive, operations are relegated to the streets, and the Nordic Model has resulted in terrible working conditions.

It's unfortunate that what has some security benefits is also a such a gold mine for Apple. If they ran th still in a from developers yearly subscription costs + users paying for hardware, this would be so much easier to agree with.

One example: DJI's app for their drones. They are forced to follow Apple's rules on iOS, but don't offer the same app on Google's play store. I trust the iOS version much more for that reason alone.

But as long as they take 30% from developers on the platform and expanding the scope who needs to pay, they fully deserve monopoly investigations and eventually fines for their greed.
Depends entirely on the length of the brownouts and the type of industry, there are long-proven fallback and standby options that can smooth out temporary blips (or just clean dirty power in general) that allow 'industry' to work just about anywhere in the world. The bigger issue in Costa Rica is that they aren't actively courting heavy industry, so their power is very expensive for commercial users -- nearly $0.20/kWh compared to half that rate in a place like Mexico or Colombia, or more like $0.05/kWh in Texas.
Yep, I am in the UK. Prostitution/brothels are nominally legal where I am (and have been for three decades) but they began cracking down recently. Religious groups allied with violence against women charities. This has been with mixed success because legalization was introduced to combat HIV, and the local govt is loathe to turn this back completely because it will cause chaos (lots of job losses, increase in pimping, human trafficking). But there is a new puritanism.
Thanks for the answer! Perhaps someone could write a script calculating what percentage of common words can be expressed unambiguously using this keyboard? It seems like the percentage would be quite low to me (considering e.g. 80% to be "low" given how often you'd have to issue slow corrections), but I might be misunderstanding the rules and I expect it would improve in English with your Z-as-S idea.

The lockout period progresses something like 60 seconds, 5 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours, 6 hours, 1 day and so on. This should only be possible if the child had sole possession of the phone for days. Not saying it’s impossible, but this appears to be an extreme edge case.

I suspect most of these reports come from either bugs in the software (and some quick Googling suggests this has been the case), or perhaps that even someone (heck, even a savvy child) was trying using some sort of brute force exploit to unlock the phone.
The thing that really pisses me off is that governments in the past worked SO HARD to argue that renewable energy could never work.
I like your goal "to make 'blogging' more expressive and visual, possibly to break a piece off and reboot it, now that it's fallen out of fashion." I have the impression that, with some of your other projects, Kicks, you are trying to do this for all the web, not just blogging.

However, for my taste, this feels a little too close to Tumblr, which I don't think achieves "expressive and visual" in a deep sense. I hope that you will continue to explore and find more ways to differentiate yourself.

Misc. feedback:

I like how you present small blocks of text, but large blocks of text seem cramped sometimes, difficult to read.

The backgrounds are killing me. Perhaps, each background could have a solid-color fallback and readers could toggle to only display the solid fallbacks?

"Composed on today" -> "Composed today" (likewise for "yesterday")

I hope this doesn't come across as negative. What you're doing is very interesting to me and I look forward to seeing where it goes. It just hasn't fully achieved your stated goal, yet, in my opinion.

Star Wars may work better as a video game series though, where it's basically just this raw power fantasy. "I'm the best space wizard/ commando/ fighter pilot and I'm killing everybody I don't like"!

A lot of things should have been part of HTML 20 years ago. Table sorting comes immediately to mind. No reason that should require JS for very straightforward cases, and almost none should need more than to define a sort function (or a few sort functions, given many columns), provided the table fits on one page. That's a no-brainer even if the web hadn't taken a turn to being the lowest-common-denominator app delivery platform. Given that's happened, there's a bunch more that should have been added, if not 20 years ago, certainly 10, to make it at least sort of resemble an actual GUI toolkit, in capabilities.

> If you're already a well compensated white collar professional where you live now the upside is not that large.

The increase in salary can be massive, often 2x or above. Even including the increased cost of housing in large cities and health insurance.

Still, the increase in wealth hits a point of diminishing returns. Most people I know claim they have a better quality of life in EU overall.
Being able to provide my family is the only thing that keeps me going forward but also the thing that keeps me in the hole. When you're good at something, you build your entire life around it, your people relations, your professional network, your job, your career, the city you move to to find better oportunities, the time invested into growth and learning... Everything is tailored based on that piece of "something" that set you apart from the rest and that let you into that door, and the next door, and the next until you (not always, but sometimes) get this feeling of "stuckness".
