> not being ashamed or anything

I don't see what he has to be ashamed about? Nobody died. He created a thing as a joke, took it seriously, looked at it seriously and re-evaluated the pursuit. He comes out wealthier and wiser.
Came to post this too.

I wonder how bad the flood affect will be - it's not something a simple how far above sea level is your front door will fix. But there must be models for it.
That may be so, but that's a different claim. If he had a plausible path to build a backstop against catastrophes threatening to wipe out humanity, a case could be made that this should outweigh everyday regulations & petty bureaucratic paperwork.

What he has is a plausible path to shipping canned apes for a brief sojourn to a far away locale fairly hostile to long term habitation. If that's what he wants, fine, but there's no reason the regular legal process needs to be waived for that.
It's been a conversation in every interview. It's no requirement, but it's made every job easy to get.
> Better though would be to make it in Brazil's interest to protect the Amazon. We all benefit from it being intact, so we should all chip in to create an economic incentive for the county of Brazil to maintain it.

It's really a sad little pretzel of hell that we (supposedly) need to create economic incentives for every human on Earth to not squander their local resources for short term gain when it is in fact economic incentives that got that ball rolling downhill in the first place. But yeah, I guess we'll find a way to throw globalism and money at a problem created by globalism and money.
So you think it's too much work for $10k? I won't write off just the desire to nail it beyond doubt to secure the bounty.
I agree that if the author had made any attempt at all to try and actually cover the facts, you probably wouldn’t have had that misunderstanding. If you look at this guy’s disclosure (the one linked in the article no less), it seems as though he sells a covered call on just about every allotment of stock he purchases (which is a perfectly common strategy). So it doesn’t even seem like an out of the ordinary trade for him to be making.

I don’t agree that the article implies in any way that he was selling ITM calls to try and exit a position though. But it does seem to imply that he had control over when the contract was exercised, and that he may not have even had a contractual obligation to sell the stock, which is very obviously complete nonsense. So who knows what the article was trying to say, apart from maybe GOP man bad?…
> I'm asking is our current global population level sustainable? It sounds like that's a no.

At the current levels, it is not. If we shifted over to renewables then it would be.

I find focusing on the population extremely weird, given that the vast majority of emissions are coming from a relatively small portion of rich nations. We could eliminate the entire global south and still tip this planet into disastrous global warming purely based on the emissions of small, rich countries in the north.

Put more blatantly, I find that a lot of the discussion about overpopulation is an attempt to put the blame of global warming and our sustainability problems on those who emit the least per capita. There is very little merit to discussions about controlling population size while rich nations continue to depend on fossil fuels to maintain their standards of living.
What is the solution for the big problem?
Yea, agreed. Thats why I didn't think it was strange that a given city was missing (though I don't know that Jerusalem or tel Aviv would be crucial to any such list either?)
There isn't a proper definition for HiDPI. Displays used to be around 100ppi.
Nowdays, the majority of notebooks - even cheap ones - feature a FullHD display.
For example when i list all notebooks on gh.de and limit the maximum price to 600€ of the 599 listed laptops 389 of them have a pixel density of 150ppi or higher.

For a price up to 500€ it lists 306 laptops with 176 having 150+ppi.
You just tried to call out people complaining about the cut they take right now with the logic that leads to piss poor service (terrible take but let's roll with it)

Right now OP is getting piss poor service.

So how does A relate to B in the context of this post? You think there's worse than the current 0 percent warning and support they got, or...
Deism requires rejecting all rationality - it's literally the point of almost all religions. Secular lines of reasoning results in science and all of the progress that has come with it. Being honest with ourselves leads to an understanding that there is no evidence of any sort of a deity - it is when we are fearful that we reach out into the void looking for someone to help us.
According to his LinkedIn, he "Developed chips for the Mac and Mac II, including the Apple Sound Chip." Presumably the author here didn't catch the difference between the Mac and the original Apple computers.
The author is feminist herself, and seemly her views match with that. The raeson she used "radical feminist view" seemly is to separate it from current "mainstream feminism". Then she goes on and on explaining the logical errors of the current view, and reach the conclusion that the "radical" view is actually correct.

I don't agree with her on that (I think she found the logical errors, and wrote a good article, but I disagree with her conclusion), but that is what she meant anyway.

Also her target readers are feminist themselves, there is no need to anything there be cringeworthy, it is a feminist telling other feminists why one of their beliefs might be wrong.
Does C++ code even use memcpy these days? A honest question.
Stealth lets you operate much more surviveably in contested airspace. If you're a small nation and your threat model includes a bigger one and you're rich enough to afford it the short takeoff versions are pretty attractive.
I think Twitter is a good company making a good product.
I think that's a bit too paranoid of a take.

Apple loudly and publicly claim these facts (about data not leaving your device, and sync being end-to-end encrypted). It is one of the most scrutinised companies (see every -gate and even Google's 0-day blog), and they made Privacy their key differentiator.

They have everything to lose and almost nothing to gain from secretly tracking personal data.
"Apple said they didn’t want to compete with Apple w.r.t. "

... That's what market partitioning _is_ though, right?

The two parties could independently come to the conclusion that Apple shouldn't compete with Office, but actually discussing it (and documenting the discussion!) is a flagrant violation of U.S. anti-trust laws.
Eh, the easy way to do this is not stack it but to store the hay under roof once it is sufficiently dry. Then you get a lot less waste and it is also more easily mechanized.
End of an Era: NTSC Finally Goes Dark in America
I've noticed that as well - it's a bit strange given that Pharo is a fork of Squeak, which does proclaim its ST origins on its front page.

I wouldn't say Smalltalk has a bad rep nowadays, but it used to be knocked for being too expensive (the cost of ST licences back when was beyond a joke), too slow, and producing nasty-looking non-native GUIs. These have almost all been fixed.
> What's the point of a stable coin?

The stability of U.S. dollars without the hassle of opening a bank account. Which, generously, means faster transaction times; realistically, skipping AML.

Given Tether doesn't actually hold much cash, it's more akin to a money market fund that pays no interest.
Sometimes I don't know where to start with people assuming outright that a social media platform is evil.
There's a difference between working on your own stuff vs. working purely to trade time for money as an employee. Sometimes you can have both I guess , but I think it's the exception, not the norm.
He still praises the fascist dictatorship, he’s about as far right as one can get.
And this is EXACTLY why people are fighting against google and apple exclusively controlling the stores on the respective platforms.

Edit: yes, i know you can add a 3rd party "store" to android, but it doesnt have the same rights as the google store, and its certainly not a user friendly process.
You can find cheap canned Brazilian corned beef at Walmart or pretty much any US dollar store.
> What the Trusted Traveler program does is create two different access paths into the airport: high security and low security.

I think that testing has showed it’s created two low-medium security paths, one with high theater and one with lower theater.
> App stores should review apps at set frequencies. Developers should know the expected date for their next review so that they can prepare for unexpected consequences that require direct action.

I guarantee bad actors would remove unpermitted functionality right before the review, and put it back after.

There's a reason even restaurant food safety inspectors don't tell the restaurant when they're coming. But on the other hand, restaurant food safety inspectors do usually give you a chance to correct the violation before shutting you down (depending on severity anyway).
Was recently watching "Becoming a god in central Florida", a Netflix sitcom about a fraudulent MLM scheme in the 90s. I was struck by how similar the vibe was to today's crypto community; anyone who wasn't making money or who questioned the value proposition of the overpriced cleaning products simply didn't understand, didn't believe hard enough, and those who refused to get involved were the enemy, their lack of belief viewed as an attack on the scheme ('no-coiners', anyone?)
I was an early adopter and I don’t recall anyone saying the internet was bad for the environment, or that it couldn’t scale. Quite the opposite actually! And there was very little fraud or criminality - most new applications and ideas were genuinely innovative and immediately and obviously beneficial. Yea the financial hype took over in the late nineties but the fundamentals were always sound and the potential was obvious. And over time that potential grew, it didn’t shrink like it has for cryptocurrency.

Not to discount your friend's experience, but I haven't seen a recent study for which this is true. Selection criteria aren't secret; they're on clinicaltrials.gov and published in the eventual data used for FDA approval and publication.

> Are we expected to be available 24/7/365 to act on Google's unforeseeable impulses?

Almost all software nowadays involves some back-end with 24/7/365 availability, which means that unplanned outages can occur at any time. It sucks, especially for small or one-person operations, but it's the game many of us are in.

In most places the pattern is water evaporates over the oceans and then condenses over land. Not in the Amazon.

If you look at it from space

https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/GOES/sector_band.php?sat=G1...

you see a very complex pattern of circulation where rain falls then the water evaporates and re-condenses multiple times before some of it goes "down the drain" of the river while some of it goes north or goes south.

The clouds don't move consistently to the east or the west like they do in the temperate zone so the area makes water deliveries in directions you wouldn't expect, such as to the snowpack and hydroelectric dams of USA West.

When Apple talked about this strategy externally they spoke as though it was a new product. That's how they would have pitched it to Microsoft. They wanted everyone to think of it as a modernised Mac OS, not as the NeXT OS with a Classic Mac app emulation layer.

Podcast Marketing: What? How and Why?
Well, I wouldn't necessarily only store it on North Korean soil.

Raw data we use for image processing at work (we will miss it if it's gone) is stored in three locations: server room, another server room in a different building, and on the cloud. Properly-as-of-2021-encrypted, of course.

Unless we really fuck something up with securing our storage servers or running a script that accidentally wipes it all at once, it's really hard to imagine a scenario under which all of that is gone at once.

If the cheapest and most reliable cloud storage provider was in North Korea, the only reason I wouldn't use them is the reaction I'd get from Very Important Privacy Peoples when they hear of it. (And also because I don't want to fund a criminal totalitarian regime responsible for sending people to the Gulag).
The Bible often talks about not honoring other gods, avoiding idols, etc. Even Solomon built many shrines to other gods for his wives.

Some people interpret it to affirm the existence of other gods. In reading, there’s never a point where another god directly intervenes in the lives of men. There are plenty of occurrences of men creating idols to worship of other gods or falling to temptations offered by the gods of other cultures. Asherah poles are the most often called out.

All that is to say, we don’t have any historical context of other gods directly intervening in people’s lives.

What we do know is that if we were to claim to know when God will intervene we would be wrong. We can’t possibly. I have seen in my own life and heard testimony from others which gives me a little bit of a pattern to draw from and gain better understanding to help make some sense of it…but I’m still just guessing.

What we do see in the Bible is that even the biblical heroes are all very flawed and fall in and out of favor with God. Noah, Moses, David, Solomon, etc. The only one who doesn’t is Jesus, but even Jesus became frustrated at times. There’s a story where Jesus curses a fig tree because he’s hungry and there’s no fruit on it. I always thought it was funny because it shows more of his human side…he got hangry.
I'm quite curious to see how EU countries will abide to those rules, it is going to be messy and I wonder if there will be fines, I guess there won't...

I guess europe can expect a whole lot of yellow vest-style protests.

I keep reading that the yellow vest were arguing that the carbon tax was hitting the poor more, but in the end, carbon benefits everyone, not just the rich.

It's true that the rich emits more, it's true that the rich can adapt more easily, but in the end, the rich will also lose income because of a carbon tax. I'm not sure that "carbon inequality" is very high (even though air travel seems to really increase that carbon inequality).

I also really believe that fossil fuels allowed the poor to get out of poverty. It's necessary to cut down CO2 emissions, but it's also necessary to anticipate the social cost, because it is going to be huge and put a lot of people out of a job.
It's good when the reasons behind apparent sex differences are investigated. When they are simply taken for given in e.g. provision of healthcare, it can be harmful to people who don't fit the average “male person” or “female person” profile. For instance, people who for whatever reason have hormone levels not typical for the chromosomes they have, people with unusual chromosome configurations, or people with social circumstances unusual for their sex.
I expect gasoline engines to stop being popular in the next 4-5 years. EVs are getting cheaper and cheaper, and they’re much simpler to own and maintain. The next gas shock will probably tip more people over to ditching gasoline too.
==I for example will be growing more and more of my own food as I see the quality of food dwindle while the costs rise.==

Couldn’t this be seen as evidence things are moving in the direction toward collapse? You’ve even taken measures to account for it which makes you more independent and less reliant on “society”. If a critical mass of people do that, it’s possible to see society (as we know it) collapse.

Maybe you are getting hung up on the word “collapse” as though it is synonymous with “extinct”?

Facebook Seeks FTC Chair Lina Khan’s Recusal in Antitrust Case
Yes, that worldview, i. e. that the intangible structures created by societies (governments, laws, banks) are inherently bad is rather popular with the tech crowd. Witness how they approach free speech issues, putting all their stock in technological solutions (Tor) while generally either complaining about relevant laws or cynically dismissing all initiatives as corrupt.

With regard to central banks, the community is at about the level of the 1920s, where monetary policy was arguably worse than some default law of physics, like the availability of actual gold, might have been. That ignores the bit of history that came later, and the progress that’s been made. That’s why they’re all afraid of runaway inflation, although it has not happened within anyone’s lived experience in western democratic countries.

It’s fun to remember how paranoid the crypto community was at the beginning of being targeted by governments for encroaching on their power. When, in reality, the response was mostly just benign curiosity, and governments only reacted when there were tangible harms to prevent, such as fraud and, more recently, skyrocketing CO_2 emissions. It’s almost as if the FED isn’t a shady private institutions owned by the Rothschild’s out to exploit the common man.

This is confused: hiring someone who _doesn't_ have a relevant job (e.g. they're a student or working in food service at present). That candidate I want to know about their personal project and OSS. I'd never consider asking someone who has a career about such things. They'd be way too busy. In fact having a significant involvement in a non-work software project would be a red flag.

Also: do you really mean "recruiter"? That's usually a facilitator person who doesn't know much about software. I answered the question in the context assumed in the other answers here which is more "hiring manager" or "recruiting organization".
