and it was the last straw, so to speak, for Luther ...

Interesting though that Medici started in 13xx as kind of disrupting upstart riding/representing a paradigm shift, ie. as city based tradesmen of growing wealth they were going against the established/entrenched order where aristocratic nobility ruled - and as any successful upstart they broke through the established order and "regulatory captured" all the power 150-200 years later, ie. Florence, papacy, French crown,... thus themselves becoming that entrenched order what the upstarts of 15xx were fighting against.

Interesting the use of "Man", maybe women are less willing to share? It is well known that there are much less female contributors to open source or wikipedia, even in the pre childbearing phase.

I think it derives from the traditional roles of men and women, men creates value or hunt or acquire resources in some way and then give it for "free" to their wives and children while the women role is to hog those resources for themselves and children. I wonder if this is ever going to change and how long it will take.

In my personal experience I have found women to be far less generous, as if it it hurt them to give something without some benefit derived, but that is just anecdotal, I wonder what other people experiences are.
Can anyone who's familiar with Earthly explain why somebody would want to use it instead of Bazel?
> By far the most emissions, now and historically, are in developed countries.

If you want to play the blame game for historical emissions, sure, the developed countries are the biggest culprits. That however has no bearing on future emissions.

No policy of today will undo historical emissions, except maybe a significant sequestration effort, but I don't see any of that in the broader discussion. It's all about how the US needs to reduce current emissions, which would still only amount to 15% of worldwide emissions if eliminated completely.

We also can see that the majority of current emissions are coming out of developing countries, unless for some reason you want to count China into the developed countries.
Debt is inherently tied to American moral values. It has a use so it has never gone away, despite it causing damage.
Using the green cross for a pharmacy supports the suggested use as a generic symbol for health...

I didn't exclude Asia, I stated that my experience there is more limited than the continents I listed. The US isn't a reliable authority on any international standards.

If you started up a new video game and the health packs had green crosses instead of red ones, would you be confused?
I had an ex that was in all honesty was a horrible employee. I feel bad for anyone that ever worked with her. She was always qualified for the job but a nightmare doing actual work. She came to me with some project that her boss asked her to work on looking for advice. This Fortune 500 company was asking her, as a software engineer, to create an Excel spreadsheet budget for her next project. I honestly helped her to the best of my ability (it actually wasn’t half bad haha) but they ended up firing her within a few weeks. They were just looking for a final project to show in plain view that she couldn’t do what was asked of her.

Anecdotal but… I suppose they could be protecting themselves from these situations where once they have made up their mind, it’s probably in their best interest to see their everyday work ethic. I think most of us would like the chance to know whether they are doing a good job to improve, but this sounds like once they are on this list, their days are numbered
I heard the tungsten filament in old-fashioned light bulbs can reach 2800K.
Note - this method requires the element have a height defined; or a height derived from a declaration like `aspect-ratio`

That's because `inset: 0rem` is equivalent to `top: 0rem; right: 0rem; bottom: 0rem; left: 0rem;` - which is a well know technique to force 100% height.

Is the added bonus of increased share price required for the comp to be similar to an all-cash Netflix comp though?

Or is it still competitive without taking such appreciation into account?
House cooling doesn't really need A/C most of the time. Most countries in Europe and North America (exceptions are mostly Mediterranean countries) aren't even using blinds that prevent sunrays from reaching the glass of the windows. People are living in greenhouses, not houses, and the ridiculous part is that they are not even in there most of the time during the day, so the light is unused and the heat accumulates so much that you get home to an unbearable 30C/80F temperature.

If the heat was kept out of the house properly during the day, you could just keep the house cool enough by opening the windows during the night, without any A/C at all.
I went to Vietnam a couple of years ago. Ho Chi Minh city had Uber. Getting around was a breeze.

In Hanoi, Uber didn't work. We had a taxi with a fiddled meter. They tried to charge me $40 US for a 2km journey.
That's usually for number of patients seen or policies, not for changing their diagnoses. If they are changing diagnoses or other medical decisions, then it is highly unethical.

Developers are often told what technologies they can use, when it needs to be done by, and much more. The business logic in the system is generally dictated by the business. There's very little the developer has strategic control over. We're really just implementating someone else's ideas.

The examples in your link look much better than anything on the SpriteStack page; probably because they are rendered at a higher resolution, as the parent poster suggested.
I'm not really that desperate for more interview experience. I'm already juggling interviews with 7 other companies right now, two of them already at the final stage and another one close, and I'm expecting to get 2-3 offers within a couple of weeks.

It's taken up most of my free time just keeping up with all of the assessments and interviews and correspondence as it is, I don't feel the need to spend another 2.5-10+ hours on Amazon (the assessment alone is 2.5 hours) just to give them a data point for why I withdrew that will likely be ignored anyway.
And the military must receive training for it. If a soldier "throws a grenade" at a red cross, it's lack of training, not video games.
Well they do not really share that much given none of the OS/2 that shipped were based on NT, although that was the plan at the beginning of the dev of NT, and first versions of NT had a (quite limited) OS/2 subsystem. So there may have been some influences, but the target "quickly" switched to Win32 anyway.

I often find myself struggling to write good examples. I find this post has decent advise on the matter, but finding realistic situations that can be distilled down into an example without needing to overburden the reader with context is hard.
I don't dispute that the RC logo is special per international law; I don't see what that has to do with anything here. I also don't object to "the Red Cross wants to protect its trademark"; I only object to the implication that appropriation of the RC logo in the media poses any kind of threat to RC personnel.
How do we know that? Is it possible that substantially all the active funds with a thesis on AMC/GME got out, so now the price is driven by retail meme buyers who have no price target?
You missed the point. The other person was saying that now Uber and Lyft are more regulated so they have little advantage over taxis now.
"Countries around the world protect the red cross emblem and limit its use to official Red Cross organizations and programs, as well as the medical services of their armed forces. In the United States, only the American Red Cross and the medical corps of the Armed Forces are permitted by law to use the red cross emblem. Some U.S. companies were granted an exception that were already using the emblem before 1906. Use of the red cross emblem by anyone else is not only prohibited, but also unlawful in the United States and around the world." (https://www.redcross.org/about-us/news-and-events/news/2020/...)
Agreed. Jerry Goldsmith was and is a legend.
Exactly. Even though the uber/lyft experience is not always perfect, it is almost always much better than taxis, and I will pay a premium for it. The people who only care about price can have the cabs, and the discount airlines while they're at it.
This is the clearest display yet that moderation on HN has absolutely nothing to do with your purported values like constructive criticism, and has everything to do with whether dang agrees with you or not.
I think you’ll have a hard time finding cops who don’t find the idea of enforcing such laws utterly preposterous. Most wouldn’t even try to stop a motorcycle.
Management effectively does know the truth, for the trivial reason that they get to decide what the truth is. They are the ones who get to decide what counts as performing and underperforming. It's not as though there is some objective way to determine who is and isn't a desirable employee.
I doubt it, I bought a new Sonicare toothbrush and it came with an app to supposedly help you track your brushing or whatever; I was curious so I installed it.

After updating my toothbrush firmware, I got a prompt on my phone asking for it to track my location.

Why does my toothbrush need to know my location constantly?
You said this was an incentive for consumers to “[keep] multiple credit cards, etc. on which banks make money”.

Banks don’t make money off credit cards which are not being used.
I don't have a problem with people protecting their trademarks, whether Kleenex or RC. I just didn't think they were going to make the "trademark violations kill" argument. Kind of puts the MPAA's "You wouldn't steal a car..." marketing into perspective.
There is indeed lots of great art about at all levels, but what Diller is complaining about is the business of balancing mediocre productions that ae sure to be popular and make money with stuff that almost certainly won't be popular in the short term but deserves to be financed and produced so people can catch up to it later (which might be decades).

Diller worked in a business where studios banked on a combination of taste and business skill. What we have now is algorithmically curated entertainment product. That's why it's so easy to and amusing to make up imaginary Netflix categories like 'comedic survival-horror' or 'superficially profound movies you can quote at dinner parties while chasing a promotion.'

I agree with you in one way, but in another you're having your existing tastes affirmed within safe boundaries, and StreamCorp's goal is to be better at doing that than your friends or circumstances. You'll get lots of great viewing material that meets your aesthetic preferences, but not anything that really surprises or shakes you; you won't ever have a movie experience that causes you to walk around for 3 hours in the rain because you changed.
That's fascinating, it looks almost exactly like a PC!

I used the LSI-11 and LSI-11/23, but never saw one of those.
All good points, thank you!

Yeah, I kind of tuned the issues out because for me the XPS is the only machine that combines slickness with repairability and that's what I value. I have the skill to resolve some of the issues (I always do a wipe and a fresh install) and the rest I learn to walk around through time.

I agree that the XPS is a terrible computer for a person who just wants stuff to work, but my point was that nothing prevents Apple from following the same repairability practices that Dell has while having a better QA. Having removable SSD or the battery that's not glued-in doesn't automatically make your laptop as bad as a Dell or as thick as a brick. If tomorrow these practices are written into the law, Apple will still be producing very good machines which will also be more maintainable.

You're completely right and obviously many many people would want to go and see something like the good the bad and the ugly in theatres - probably enough to fill the theatre for a showing or two - but the problem is how would they know it's on? A lot of people look up what movies are on that week, but most people are aware that the big movies are ok a the moment because they're marketed and obviously that marketing costs money. What studio or theatre chain is going to spend millions (or even thousands) on marketing a 30+ year old movie that might take in a couple of hundred k at the box office.

There's a reason cinemas don't play old movies and it's not because they think there's no one who wants to see them, sadly the logistics of it are too costly (in all sorts of ways beyond just base line finances too).
Not really, not for me and many others anyway. I would just get an LTE modem for backup internet, my PC is better at everything else. I'm not sure about which sites you're talking about, but you can also do 2FA without a phone.
Check out the ESPhome project[1], now part of the Home Assistant universe. It makes creating ESP32 projects a breeze and has native IR transmit capabilities. This will let you tie the device into Home Assistant which bring integration with nearly everything. You get a great mobile interface, automation engine, and hooks to nearly every smart device currently being sold.

Some gullible losers took the former president’s request to fight at the capitol literally. They need to accept the consequences.
AC-heavy environs -- especially deserts -- are a better use-case for existing renewable solutions than colder environs. And, also, actual uptake is higher.

Solar can be more easily used for AC in desert environs because peak demand coincides exactly with peak production. And, it actually is. At least in places with access to capital.

The situation is sadly exactly the opposite up north. For everything except geothermal the peak production (both in time of day and season) doesn't match up well with the peak demand.

Also, AC requires a lot less energy than heating, regardless of generation method.

But deserts have other sustainability issues. Water.
Then you’re lucky to have students with a lot of integrity at your college/university. Even with a great unique exam where nothing can be looked up online, this doesn’t prevent students from copying each other, posting problems on sites like Chegg and paying for help, or working together…
> Well, if mathematicians use these concise notations, why shouldn't programmers? I believe it is because mathematicians don't want or need to take the time and space needed to spell out these operators, variables, and functions in their papers.

Mathematicians don't need to fight compilers, only other mathematicians. If Mathematicians needed to convince a compiler their equations, I'm sure they'd be forced to be fully explanatory and less handwavey at the margins.
What you want is done in many cities across America. And probably across the world. Both by businesses and by the municipalities themselves. Typically, movie theaters that show "classics" tend to exist in larger cities, of course. Because smaller towns cannot support them economically. But many small towns also show classic movies, often for free, on a regular basis. Just look for it.
So I find myself in 1990... I'd call up my high school crush, and we'd end up married 10 years sooner. Do a lot more programming and electronics, pushing as far as my skills can get me. Do a lot more photography, starting with film, and then get a scanner and go digital once the technology is able to keep up.

I'd make sure my grandpa ended up in jail, instead of getting away with what he did.

I'd do a lot more exercise, and take far better care of myself. I'd push as much money into savings and investments as I could.

If the market works the same way, I'd have a boatload of stock and Bitcoin by now, and I would know who Satoshi really is/was.

If the market doesn't work the same way, no big deal. I know a lot more about how business really works, and how to manage people, so I'll do ok with my career.

I'd try to push things on the internet towards a better outcome. It's before eternal September, so there is hope. I'd try to get emails signed by the sending server. I'd push capability based security, open source software, and make non-ad funded social networks a thing.
In Dublin I called a cab company to reserve a taxi the night before a flight, and explicitly asked for a cab with a working credit card machine, which they assured me would happen.

The next morning the cab arrives on time – great – I get in and we drive to the airport, at which point the driver reveals that their credit card machine is conveniently "broken". The driver insists I leave my luggage in the cab as collateral while I go inside the airport to find a cash machine. This ends up taking about 15 minutes, I have to pay $5 in ATM fees, I'm anxious the entire time he's going to leave with my luggage, etc.

Yeah, I don't mind paying more.

GHB, for one, is said to be all the best parts of alcohol with less of the downsides. It's still addictive and super illegal though, has the stigma of being a "date-rape drug", is maybe more neurotoxic than ethanol (excitotoxicity may be more in play), but definitely less toxic for the rest of the organ systems, and non-carcinogenic.

Kava, a beverage made from the roots of the piper methysticum plant, is broadly similar to alcohol, but milder, more sedate, non-addictive, non-toxic, and legal almost everywhere in the world. It's expensive though (only grows in the tropics), tastes like dirt-water, and takes a bit of work to prepare.

English neuropharmacologist David Nutt has been reportedly working on a synthetic less-toxic alternative to alcohol for years, but it's unsure if anything will ever come of it.
I wonder if it is still possible to buy systems branded SGI. I guess HP owns the brand now, but it has been through a couple acquisitions at this point, so it would be a real zombie brand at this point.
Right. There are several less well known protective marks, all red symbols on a white background. There's a red crescent, and a red crystal (an uncontroversial geometric shape which conveniently is also hollow so you can put some other symbol in there if that's important to you) and historically a red lion with sun.

The purpose of these symbols is to unambiguously identify protected vehicles, protected buildings, protected people.

It's true that in some countries people slap red crosses (in particular) on stuff that shouldn't have them and doesn't need them. But that doesn't make it a good idea. In a video game in particular you could use any symbol and players would soon get the idea. How long do you think it takes Mario players to realise that one of the mushrooms makes Mario bigger, while a different one is an extra life?

As a chronically unemployed 36 y old, this doesn't surprise me at all.

The way people pursue work and careers is weird when food and shelter are easily available.

This is an eternal debate about Diogenes, but I'm surprised how do many individuals can freely and willingly give so much of their time for work. It's a mix of belief system, markets, social hierarchy and sociology, psychology and other things.

Peripheral banks are allowed an insane amount of leverage. all the peripheral banks basically blow out their accounts periodically, including most recently in 2020. central banks don’t really use anywhere as much leverage, because an account blowout for them looks like hyperinflation. And if they are in good terms with the us, the us central bank helps them out. we just had a forced deleveraging , which cost a one time 10-20% inflation.
