It depends on the bill and the state laws. E.g. debt collectors will use misleading and predatory tactics to get the children to pay "a token sum" that then makes the children liable for an entire debt.
Metro just announced the official end of the heatwave, but I keep think of old sci-fi films that finished with: "The End... or IS IT?!!!"
The subhead of the NYT article specifically describes the demand as against the school. I can re-ask the question with the distinction: if there's sovereign immunity, what gives Disney's licensing agent the authority to demand the school pay a fee?
Roads and other services can be paid for by their users, in driver license fees and vehicle registration fees. If you don't use the roads, you don't pay those fees. Sure, you will pay them indirectly if you have to have other people drive you around or deliver things, but it's still all voluntary.

I think your over-estimating how little most people think/care about their storage drives.
The Unseen Side of Speedrunning – How It's Made
That’s exactly the mechanic I’m talking about. Tribal - we’ll raise money for our neighborhood park, but of course they have money since their ancestors got there first (or maybe worked harder?) and passed down their land or whatever other structural advantages.

In your example, the neighbors are the tribe. The other people on the other side of town who are poorer, for various reasons, simply will not get a park.

However, if the economy is growing and everyone is moving up the ladder, then it will be easier to spread the fruits around to everyone. You are likelier to support taxes and condo fees to assist others, since you yourself are not stagnating or moving down the ladder.

Synology is a totally different price range though. You'd pay the same for the empty NAS as you'd pay for the WD with the drive included :)

But then again it's clear that you get what you pay for.

But you're basically on the same page with their sentiments, right?
No, they're not. But hospitals, many times, will absolutely imply that they are when a parent dies in hospital.

And if they do that well enough to have you make a payment, most legal systems will consider that acceptance of full financial responsibility on your part.
Machine Learning for Beginners – A Curriculum
It's generally acknowledged that IQ measured by well known IQ tests like the WAIS are fairly consistent over time. You may score a few points lower or higher, but it won't change much. Training can help a bit, but only so much. Health issues, mental problems, stress, tiredness, drugs or alcohol can all influence your score, mostly in a negative way. So I suppose that influences like these are filtered out of this research. They are interesting to research, to see what their influence is, but to study the consistency in test results over time, they should be left out.
I would probably use gitlab a lot more if they didnt keep logging me out every 20-30 minutes even after setting remember me flag. I stay logged in on github for weeks/months and it is slightly annoying to have to login to gitlab constantly. (I use firefox)
"Shouldn't" isn't the same as "doesn't".

I'm not anything close to an ML expert, and I have no opinion on whether what they're aiming for is possible, but this document^[1] (linked in your linked comment) states explicitly that they are aware of the recitation issue and are taking steps to mitigate it. So, in the context of the comment I replied to, I think Github is very far from claiming that recitation is "simply not possible".

Nah, man. This "we all did this" is just not true. Power is not equally distributed among people. A few people in charge of oil and gas companies have more power to affect the state of affairs than thousands of normal people. So, no, I do not buy that "it's everyone's fault".
Without knowing anything, 10 million seems excessive, but 6 months in a hospital will no doubt be expensive. I don't want to stir up bad feelings, I'm just curious, was there a good chance that your dad was going to make it out of the hospital? What was EOL talks like with the doctors? This story brings back the article here not too long ago, regarding the average hospital stay of a doctor at EOL vs the general public. I'm not sure of all the influencing factors regarding EOL procedure, but it does seem like a huge amount of resources are used for the very short end of a large amount of people's lives. Once again, no offense intended, it just got me thinking.
This is jaw dropping. How is this legal at all?

It sounds like a good startup. Do background checks on homeless people, see if they have any living relatives, and if so you can house them in a nursing home and charge the relatives.
Naturally: policing is after all a state sponsored service.
I help a lot of people in a given week, and my browser tabs are out of control. What has helped a lot for me is opening all of the tabs for a particular issue in a new window, and often putting them as the only thing on my smallest monitor is a decent compromise for not losing it. Once I minimize that window it gets lost quickly, which also contributes to the tabs problem. Still need to solve that issue.

To a lesser extent, the smart location bar for Firefox at least will tell you if you already have that url open elsewhere, which saves me from abandoned/divergent wiki edits and lost workflows. Not always, but routinely for sure. It also can search your bookmarks, so tagging things with the name you think they should have helps a lot there. Now if I could just get better at deleting malformed urls from my history...

Except for the single window piece, these aren't exactly 'mis-en-place'. They're more second-order effects, akin to putting the common ingredients on the "right" shelf, so you can grab them quicker. The invisible ingredient in 'mis-en-place' is your head. If that's a mess at the beginning of the task then everything will be off. So you can 'mis' all you want but if you run an obstacle course to get there it's going to help but not as much as it could. Like showing up to a race tired.
How much satisfaction do you really get from checking something off the list? There was some motivation that put the item on the list in the first place, and 9 time out of 10, that motivation goes back to an emotional drive of some sort. Ignoring that motivation during the process of satisfying it is fundamentally missing the point.

I'm pretty sure that's already the case, though it's typically not explicitly stated.

Crimes in expensive neighborhoods often get a lot more police attention than crimes in the ghetto.
Real thing that has happened to me, at the time my company (IT consulting / support) was ~10 people (we're ~25 now). A Gartner cold call that wanted to sell me a report that I could use to recommend which cloud storage vendor (box, dropbox, etc.) my clients should use. I explained that we were doing just fine by evaluating which one to used based on which features were more important to that specific client, but he seemed to think having the Gartner rec was critical. I said sure, then asked about the price, once I knew that I was clear that we weren't interested and thankfully he got the message and stopped calling. Maybe this is why my SMB IT company will never make the transition to enterprise clients.

It gave me a pretty jaded view into how those types of reports work. It was hard to not think they are purchased to CYA (internal or external) when you end up recommending the wrong software. I hope that isn't always the case, maybe there is some great content in them, but at 50K I'll never know :)
I don't think you understand that they use dark patterns that default to the incorrect, dangerous, behavior.

Not sure how this isn’t illegal. You sell something so defective that it destroys the thing it’s designed to protect and you refuse to fix it, and rather use it as a chance to force customers to buy new devices that are likely just as bad

> The main exception was Jan 6, which we've been taught to believe is apparently worse than the civil war.

People died. The insurgents erected gallows and carried plastic handcuff-strips.

They were flying the Confederate flag INSIDE the US Capitol. That didn't even happen during the Civil War.

They tried to interfere with the appointment of the president.

And worst of all, the response by the national guard was delayed, and the Capitol police force's equipment was limited, by order of the DOJ Barr, who is appointed by the losing president.

This WAS the worst incident, since the Civil War, not perpetrated by foreigners.

No need 'to teach' anyone that fact. It was apparent and visible to everyone who isn't a part of the Trump cult.

Bad faith false equivalencies like yours? Couldn't agree more!

Protestors disrupted Kavanaugh's hearing, they didn't try to overturn his confirmation after the fact. And even had they attempted to (not even sure what this looks like since GOP controlled the presidency and the Senate), that is far cry from attempting to overthrow the democratically-elected leader of our country with tacit and explicit support from government officials, weapons, and much malicious intent.

And comparing Jan. 6 to CHAZ is honestly a total joke not even worth acknowledging further.
To add a note to that, caricatured for demonstration: Why would you ever execute on an answer which no one with the right kind of status has told you is okay to execute on?

In the harder domains of STEM? Okay, sure, maybe the answer is self-proving and once your weird innovation works great your detractors will have to eat their words. But subjective things like emotions? You know what happens to people who have some wrong emotion, don't you? Even if your conscious mind doesn't, what's underneath sure might. Highly not recommended to put it that way to yourself raw! And yet.

Emotional processing infrastructure is an important part of society, and its blueprints an important part of culture. I suspect that the more densely packed our sociopsychological world is, the more the equivalent of mental building codes and city utilities are something that has to be negotiated to make life workable. Hindbrain Owners Association, anyone?
I'm surprised people recommend OMV. It's very "Web 1.0" with its user interface IMO.

I use it myself heavily but that's because you can install it on top of regular debian. So you get a NAS that you can customize to the wazoo. Which I do, it runs a lot of custom scripts. I basically use OMV only as an easy GUI for adding shares, changing out drives etc. I could do it all by hand and perhaps next time I will.

However I wouldn't choose to run it if I didn't have that requirement. There's much more modern options out there.

What made you choose it yourself?
I'm not suggesting that I have a better unit system for all of physics than what is currently used in physics. I am suggesting that there are lots of different unit systems and the "best" one depends on what problem you're trying to solve (the same as with programming languages). I'm suggesting that concepts from software engineering could benefit many other disciplines, because in some ways software engineering is simply the study of how to solve problems reliably and repeatably. I'm suggesting that we should feel free to tinker and experiment with unit systems as we do with programming languages.

I don't have concrete examples other than adding in "of X material" when appropriate (e.g. mass and volume, but not energy), but don't underestimate how useful that really is. One calculation I encounter a lot that is wrong a troublingly large amount of the time, despite passing a traditional dimensional analysis, is this one:

Calculate the mass of SO2 produced from burning 1,000 moles of gas with a molecular weight of 24 g/mol containing 2% H2S by weight (and no other sources of sulfur).

It's not hugely complicated: there are really only two units to keep track of here (g and mol) but they can be "of" three different materials (whole gas, SO2, and H2S), so it's very easy to cancel terms when you really shouldn't if you analyze it traditionally. With the materials attached to each unit, you're also forced to include a term that is otherwise invisible (the stoichiometric ratio of SO2 to H2S, which is usually omitted because it's 1), which helps guide your intuition on how the calculation relates to the chemistry of what's happening and helps you come up with the correct calculation when more complicated chemical reactions are involved.
I'm absolutely ignorant about those rules, but couldn't you sue the individual cop?
Unfortunately not. And at it happened at Zuckerberg SF General Hospital. Somehow seems inappropriately appropriate....

I'd be happy to hear about better demonstrations, and there's also Pry's website (https://pry.github.io/) where they link to some screencasts.
Very true. I used to commute through an area with many taxis and the amount of reckless driving and accidents I saw from them was ridiculous. I absolutely do not want a million more workers heavily incentivized to do the same.

It fits with the larger trend of corporations privitizing more profits at the expense of society as a whole.

I mean, sure, people are more likely to die in car accidents, but on the bright side Amazon can run more of their competitors out of business by driving down delivery costs! Great...
In the article they talk about right wing propaganda but after admitting the huge amount of resources Obama used to catch Assange, using nefarious means.

It is not the right, it is not the left, it is power. Power (anybody in power) does not like anybody criticizing them. In the US, in China or everywhere in the world.

The US has a big War industry and infrastructure, that is a power on their own. It tells presidents what to do and not the other way.
Why gold wires instead of copper?
Yes. And why is the USA trying to take him into custody? While in the USA for a US citizen to work as a foreign agent is illegal, I fail to see why Assange, who is a citizen of Australia and mostly has resided in other countries, should be arrested by yet another country and shipped to the USA. Did Assange commit a crime in the USA? Wasn't it Manning who got the supposed "classified" info and gave it to Assange?

How about a little goddamn proof? How about a valid legal case that follows the laws of the USA? This whole Assange thing is just a streaming shit-show of nonsense and a shameful attempt to drive one man to ruin and worse.

Both Democrats and Republicans have other problems to worry about every day b/c they don't have their acts together. All this trouble comes b/c a cabal of jerks somewhere (probably the intelligence community) has a hard-on to fuck Assange over and is somehow tolerated.

Just for comparison: would it be ethical for the USA to bushwhack and extradite a street vendor in Egypt who cries "Kill the USA!" and burns Uncle Sam in effigy? Hell No! This stuff happens all the time. The USA bureaucracy is like an information sieve. If you wanna fix it, find a better way to work.

Give Assange his freedom. Drag into the sunlight those fools who are perpetuating this nonsense and terminate their employment. Brand their foreheads with a giant letter "A" so they're identifiable forever. Anything Assange has revealed is by now "water under the bridge". To use another metaphor, "the genie is out of the bottle" and you can't put it back. Grow up!

After a few startups, I've learned that you have to love the problem domain to survive the startup grind.

I don't love the problem domain of HOA and HOA management.

I'm also unsure what the sales cycle would be like, so the first step, if I (or anyone else) were to head down the path, would be to call up a bunch of boards and/or management companies and see how they buy.

Not the OP but we can't enable our self-hosted runner on our open source project because if we do then the pipeline won't run on external merge requests. It simply fails with permission errors when we get merge requests. So we have to use the shared runners which are less powerful.

The word master has many usages. One specific context (master/slave) is inappropriate, but that doesn't mean every other context is unusable now.

Github changing master->main was the epitome of virtue signaling. This literally does not affect black people at all, nor does it do -anything- to help with racial inequality in the US. It's actually quite patronizing and tone-deaf to think that instead of all the things -Microsoft- could be doing to help racial inequality, they're putting in as little effort as possible.

Congrats on granting power over words to unreasonable people who ignore things like context in language and common sense.

(un)qualified immunity makes this really hard.
We really can not know this. We can only infer from cultures and religions in the relatively short timespan covered by written history. And even then, morality has changed significantly through time. A simple example - would you think that someone telling a story about someone else beating his wife to a pulp is something to laugh about?

Here, check out how the audience reacts just a bit more than 50 years ago:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccyu44rsaZo

I think the only moral that may have been something close to universal throughout times would've been something like: "Don't kill a member of in-group without a good reason if you're not the head honcho."

Everything else? We have literally no idea.

EDIT: Really, watch the video, it actually applies to the discussion really well. It's basically an argument about morals.
The problem with newsletters of all sorts is that they end up in some sort of someday (but probably not) category whether they're explicitly filtered or not. Sometimes they end up in a Gmail tab that I mostly glance at infrequently. If I explicitly filter, I mostly stop looking at the filtering filter. I admit I used to use RSS a lot but these days mostly expect to find plenty of stuff through Twitter, HN, etc.
