We have a pack of hounds, part of their job is to keep the coyotes off the livestock. We used to keep ~10 acres but have pulled back to about 1ac in the last couple of years. It's been hard on the grey foxes, they've actually moved up closer to our house so our hounds can cover their den; I dunno but they might not be to blame for the loss of at least one of the cats, too.

Feral cats outnumber domestic ones 2:1. Do humans affect that? Feral cat populations grow to fill their niche, with or without humans. I don't see how domestic cats account for more than a small fraction of the issue.

And again, when bird populations reach equilibrium the cats can't find more. That's independent of cat populations.

Yeah oddly enough that seems like the diciest part of the project to me. The Cocoa API is vast, reimplementing it isn't necessarily rocket science but would require a pretty huge amount of labor.

And you're right - the Cocoa API continues to evolve, so if the goal is "source compatible with latest and greatest macOS APIs" it's hard to see how a small group of open source devs can out-run the sum totality of every API engineer at Apple.

I have similar feelings about cross-platform tools like Flutter as well - the idea in a vacuum is reasonably sound, but then you run into the basic scale problems of maintaining compatibility with a moving target - a moving target that has >10x more staffing than you do.
> Anyway you slice this problem it just sounds like hospitals aren’t hiring enough employees.

Over the decades hospital administration has grown (because health insurance is complex). Seems obvious that money would be better spent on people that provide healthcare to ease the pain of those currently providing it.
It's a misdemeanor to not file, its a felony to lie when you do file.

Hospital workers are like education workers in that they are spoiled. (not all of course but a huge percent)

Education workers already get over 4 months of leave every single year built into the job, they are almost unfireable for any infractions. Yet they want higher salaries even though in national stats they already make over the median salary by quite a bit. (yes there are bad pay areas)

Hospital workers are making a killing right now on par with crazy dotcom boom tech salaries. Due to the already in place massive bonus systems they have. Yet they are walking off for extra bonuses? Sounds spoiled to me.

Bracing for what will likely be the most downvoted thing I have ever written.
What is most significant about this is that all crypto bills have died in committee before now. And suddenly, all at once, crypto is being debated on the floor of the whole senate in a bill that the President wanted. They are recognizing it as a distinct asset class that is able to have attributes of other asset classes. This means old money has to wake up now.

I don't understand how they could classify CSV in the "less harmful" column -- its rules are insanely complex.

Also, UTF-32 seems way simpler conceptually than UTF-8, so I don't understand how UTF-8 ended up "less harmful" and UTF-32 ended up "harmful".
The Boolean logic part is applicable everywhere, so that's actually unrelated to binary arithmetic or bit-shifting. Stuff like Demorgan's theorem etc I practice more in the context of simplifying if-else statements than binary operations. So there hasn't been enough significant overlap to spread into.
Point taken, this characterization is too broad.
So… JIT doesn’t actually improve performance. Nor does virtual DOM. What next? It seems like web browsers and frameworks are full of this cargo cult magic that doesn’t actually work, but must be used because everything else is built on top of it. When can we call this interpreted DOM experiment over and go back to compiled programs on a window API? It seems we’re headed there anyway with WebASM and WebGL, but every program has to carry its own UI services, kind of like video games in DOS, which is also right about where performance is today too.
What's the guidance on booster shots? How often are we to get them?

The sweet spot would be using a lock file for reproducible builds, and programmed dependency upgrades. Before the dependency upgrade you can check if the new version breaks something and plan for it.

I've used this in Python, where I try to keep dependencies to a minimum. I don't know if that would work in JavaScript, the dependency tree is huge there.
Yes sure. Thanks

I'll take the RSPB's advice in the UK (there is little/no evidence cats are having a harmful effects on bird populations in the UK, tall buildings may have more effect, pollution definitely does, other forms of habitat destruction even moreso, etc.), though my current boss is happily an indoor cat.

In places where cats are essentially an invasive species, not native at all, this is different of course.
That will lead to more variants and some of them will render the current vaccines and efforts useless.
It's the same with service sector workers. Having months off, many are realizing actually how shitty their jobs were. I highly recommend yesterday's The Daily podcast. They talk with a bunch of small business owners and service sector workers. Very illuminating.
This. You can't change mass behavior by individual pleas. Especially when the behavior generates outsized profits that can be used to advertise and lobby in its support.

The most pressing things that should be supported, to have the world I think we want:

1. Mandate open app stores. Your device, your choice. *

2. Mandate open browsers. Your device, your choice. The internet is fundamentally an extension of the OS at this point, so an free (as in speech) connection choice is a requirement for an open OS. *

3. Mandate open apps. Your device, your choice. Installing unsigned apps can be warned, but not prohibited (outside of enterprise devices).

4. Mandate configurable tracking. Your device, your choice. There must be a clear option to disable all tracking, along with an API / payment ecosystem for apps to detect this and request alternative payment. I.e. "free if advertising on + $5.99 if advertising off".

5. Mandate right to repair. The manufacturer must provide necessary technical specifications (hard or soft) for a base level of modification and repair. If the manufacturer no longer supports the device, everything must be released to the public.

* Selection must be offered at time of device setup. Installing alternatives can be warned, but not prohibited (outside of enterprise devices).
As an Icelander I am always really impressed with how well my language—a language spoken by a few hundred thousand people worldwide—is supported on various platforms and technologies. This is probably in no small part thanks to active participation by native speakers and even some government funding.

However I at the same time I’m also deeply disappointed by the lack of support for Iceland’s closest neighbour’s language—Greenlandic—which is an indigenous language, the sole official language of an autonomous country.
I can't say about the ones you know, but I can guess that many Cobol programmers have simply forgotten most of what they knew, and would struggle to even write a Hello World on current hardware & software.

> How many stakers actually have enough to win blocks though.

Just as in PoW miners make blocks in proportion to their hashpower, PoS stakers win blocks in proportion to their stake

> What is the impact of shorting on PoS - what happens when I borrow enough ETH to win blocks, deliberately mis-verify TXs, and screw up consensus.

Well, you can't "mis-verify TXs", everyone can check your work to see that all of the transactions you put in your block verify. If you reached 1/3 of the total stake on the network, you would be able to screw up consensus and make conflicting blocks both appear to be finalized, just as a 51% attack on a PoW currency can revert a block that it treated as final by client software.

The ETH2 block explorer https://beaconscan.com/ tells me that there is about 6.5 million ether staked, which would be worth about 16 Billion USD, so you would need to borrow around 5 billion USD in order to make this attack work.

> often getting double-taxed buy two different countries - and often by a higher tax country than the US.

If there's a tax treaty between the two countries, they're not going to be double taxed. They will simply pay tax at the higher-country-rate, and owe nothing to the other.

If there's no tax treaty ... I'm not familiar with how that works. The US has tax treaties with many countries around the world, especially the OECD nations.
I'm going to need to see some data to back that claim up. ED crowding has been a major problem in the US, but not really so much in Europe, Hong Kong, etc. [1] If you mean total capacity, that's a bad comparison because the US population is huge compared to most developed countries, so of course if capacity needed is a % of total population then the total capacity will be similarly large.

>> Censoring his name is confusing.

It isn't that. If we are talking about family relations, daughters working for people who know their fathers, a school with ties to a particular religion or community injects a statement that I did not want to make. It is irrelevant to the issue but can easily start a _very_ negative conversation. I don't think ever mentioning someone's likely religion in such context is ever appropriate.

As for "of such and such road", that is a very common phrase going back centuries. It is a way of stating the wealth, or lack thereof, of a person's family.

In Germany we vaccinate from 12 years old, to my knowledge there haven't been any newsworthy incidents.

The only thing we have is the (political) squabble if it is officially recommended by the vaccine commission, and the debate on how we are going to protect the young children - especially those at high risk - when ignorant unvaccinated adults will be spreading COVID around.
Agree. A related dark position that a not-insignificant number of people hold is that it's actually necessary and perhaps beneficial to have a visible homeless class living in unnecessarily cruel conditions as a means of coercion to keep working no matter how terrible your job is.

I suppose it makes sense from a certain perspective, but I think the lack of a safety net is a costly economic mistake. Take bankruptcy as an example, you can take risks and if something goes wrong (including bad decisions), you are not necessarily ruined forever because we allow you to walk away from some or all of the debt.

There's a cost to allowing bankruptcy, but I think it's worth it even though I've had to "pay" (indirectly) for other's bad decisions. I think about all the value lost to society because we make the danger of not having a job, even for a short time, very high for most members of society.

Yeah, I'm a little embarrassed to say I'd have used an array do what's in the example. I wouldn't have done all the unnecessary string conversions, but if I have a sequence of 64 things and I want the first 22 things that's a slice operation in my head, not a bit-shift, even if the things are bits.

> Linux version (foolish demand I know)

I'll buy all three Affinity apps again with a Linux or Proton version. I lug around a Mac just so I can run Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher and click OK in Xcode (or some other trivial can't-be-automated thing) from time to time. Incidentally, I do pay for quite a bit of Linux software (JetBrains, WingIDE, DaVinci Resolve)... and that is before counting all the games that I'll be buying via Steam now that I can run via Proton. Yes, I'm probably in the minority in the Linux world, but Linux (KDE desktop) is easily the most productive for me and great software is actually worth paying for. Plus, the current direction towards total lockdown of MS and Apple is going to create a lot more users just like me.
What you described is not illegal by itself. Obfuscating the origin of earnings is not illegal. Although "pooling" may be regulated in other ways.

A federal "money laundering" charge requires an illicit origin, and so since successful money laundering will never have an illicit origin, the charge can only be tacked on to another indictment.

After centuries of not having much surveillance tools of the money supply, the state has had a 50 year run of the privilege of deputizing financial intermediaries to surveil the electronic payment system. Now the electronic payment system will begin to inherit the same tenets of cash. This is just a reversion to the mean.
>Even in the best case, homeless shelters have serious downsides (to put it mildly) that you may not have considered.

I have considered it, and I don't care. I live in one of these high homeless cities, and it's horrid. No one who hasn't lived in a place like this can really understand the decay that a lot of homeless inflict upon a city and upon social cohesion. I am leaving as soon as possible. The lives and cities of productive members of society do not deserve to be ruined by homeless people. Go to the shelter or go to jail. Camping on the sidewalk or in the park should not be an option. I don't care if the shelter sucks, that still doesn't give you the right to camp in the park. I don't care if the park sucks either, that doesn't give you the right to camp in my back yard, which has actually happened and the police declined to remove the person.

If we have to sacrifice a few people who are overwhelmingly drug addicted or mentally ill or just unintelligent to make our lives and cities orders of magnitude better, sorry, but I'm voting for that option.

Perhaps as I stated it, yeah it seems unrealistic.

However I do think there’s value in gentle, consistent evangelism of privacy in ways that don’t make people feel bad. Most folks actually don’t want their deeply private stuff to be accessible. I’ve found that there are good analogies and ways to think about it that folks can get on board with and start caring to some extent.

I absolutely agree that political progress is the ultimate solution. I think the only way that will happen is if enough people demand it.
I think your 2) can easily be misconstrued to mean something else. At least, "want/desire" does not logically follow from migration stats. There are way more important factors that affect this metric.

Not to mention that a generally poor population are stuck in the US, while for the upper income brackets actually have it OK in the US. While in Scandinavia, almost everyone has the means to travel the world. Even store clerks, or otherwise "minimum income workers".

Congrats on getting an actual business out of the ground!

A few comments :

- On your delivery website, the first step is to choose a city, but you operate just in mumbai, so I can just select mumbai. If you could remove this choice before you open in new cities, it will make the flow of ordering one step shorter. It will also allow you to better market your local brand as the wording could be : order a burger in mumbai, ....

- The pizza ordering page offer images of the items to order, the burger page does not. Is it a deliberate choice? When ordering food I generally don't choose from unknown shop with no picture (but it's maybe a cultural difference as I am not based in india).

- You are operating on top of platforms (Swiggy/Zoomato), that can decide to move into the black kitchen business. Your only edge against that seems to be your brand, what are you doing other black kitchen are not doing to ensure that your brand get strong enough?
