I keep it really simple. I look for a national forest on Google Maps and drive there, adapting as needed. I'm generally looking for one sign: Welcome to X National Forest, and then I'm woo hoo! Home sweet home.

I don't drive deep into the forest (couple miles max), as cell service drops precipitously the further you are from main roads.

I do follow the signage. I want to sleep without worry, and rangers will not hesitate to wake you up at 3 am to move your car.

When in doubt, visit the website for whatever national forest you're in. Most of the information you need will be right at your fingertips, including important warnings like weather/fire risk.

Most national forests have what's called dispersed camping. Those are areas specifically reserved for camping and are almost completely unimproved, but I often find they're too deep in the forest for my liking. Just because there's a dispersed camping area doesn't mean you can camp only there.

Is national forest? Yes.

Is campsite? Yes, but doesn't even need to be a campsite. Park anywhere that's safe and doesn't obstruct, unless restricted.

Is empty? Yes.

Is unrestricted? Yes.

If restricted, abide? Yes.

Is safe? Yes, mostly. Remember bears and bear etiquette. Remember the zero-worry rule: If you're worried about where you're parked, leave. Don't assuage your worry as paranoia, listen to it and find another spot. Even if you unpack your whole van and setup camp. If you're worried, pack up and go find another spot. Peace of mind, especially if you're alone, is worth the aggravation.

Internet? Two bars. Woo hoo!

Trees/shade? Yes.

Score!

Is mine for now, so don't burn it down.

When I exit, not so much as a toenail do I leave behind.

If campgrounds are what you want, the online reservation system for USGOV campgrounds countrywide is here: recreation.gov. Off season you can snag a campground reservation same day sometimes; not so on-season.
Instead the government orders the landlord to caugh up the money. I think these landlords should sue the government and recover their losses
I guess a lot of people haven't seen the middle-ground. For me that's always been where I've sat with ORMs. It takes care of some tedious parts of getting data from SQL into my application without pretending that the underlying data isn't relational. SQLAlchemy and Dapper (.NET) have been great for this middle-ground usage.
Consider finding something else to "snack" on, digitally speaking. My wife and I are learning Italian (online lessons with a native speaker, presently) in order to be able to speak the language for a trip next year (hopefully, who knows with this chaotic world when it will actually happen, it's been postponed for two years already). Instead of games, I spend my digital snack time on Italian practice (some recommended videos from the teacher, flashcards, etc.).
I was more taking shots at Django. pandas is a great example of doing things right imo and me ripping on python at large was more my web-dev myopia shining through.
I think a good (or at least simple) solution for this problem is to increase taxes on non-primary residences, as a simple case the tax rate could be:

20% + 10%/extra house

So if you own 9 houses you're paying 100% in taxes, making it untenable to be a large-scale landlord. This should cause a bunch of housing to go on the market with people wanting to avoid that tax risk, also driving housing costs down
I was in the first camp. Basically, well paid in absolute terms, but shite pay relative to other people in technology. Once WFH opened up my options, it took me all of week to find a position paying 2x as much.

Surprisingly, they company I left has no problem replacing me in about as much time. Though, I'm not sure if my replacement was paid more than I was. I did cite pay as my sole reason for leaving, so it is possible.
It just updated, and I couldn't believe my eyes. The background colors on web pages: gone. Everything was high-contrast. The lack of background colors delineating sections of pages was disorienting. And many of the FF preference menus were actually unreadable. So what happened?

>Firefox now automatically enables High Contrast Mode when "Increase Contrast" is checked on MacOS

>Firefox automatically detects if you are using a High Contrast theme and displays everything in your high contrast color scheme. This overrides all other other browser or web page settings, and it affects the Firefox interface itself (all menus, windows, and dialog boxes) and the content of any web page you visit.

Yes, I have some "Increase contrast" enabled on Mac OS because the Mac OS dark-mode theme is too low contrast.

But I didn't ask for all my web pages to displayed like that. Yikes.

I eventually found that I could override changing colors in the advanced colors menu.
Without added sugar or artificial sweeteners, many of these ultra-processed foods are completely unpalatable. You could replace the sugar with fat, which would probably be healthier, but also reduce the shelf life due to rancidity.

The solution is to tax added sugar (including for sub-ingredients) per gram, and a flat tax for any food containing artificial sweeteners. 1c per gram of sugar, or 20% for anything containing artificial sweeteners seems reasonable.

For the first few months' worth of rent, sure. But for recent rent, when they've been allowed to return to work but chose not to, no way.
You are perfectly right, your description is perfectly on point, even though our description confused you at first.

To be honest, I'm not too much a fan of Payroll API too, but it seems it is the term that is now coined in the US for what we are doing (see that article from a16z: https://a16z.com/2020/10/20/payroll-apis/)

If you happen to have an another idea about a very quick way to describe what we are doing (less than 10 words), that would be great !

I'm a fan of anything to make management of T1/LADA simpler. Didn't realize how much of a chore management is until I was diagnosed with LADA in October of 2019. I feel for all of you that have been dealing with T1 for years/decades. It's exhausting.
Surely if this guy is a known grifter it would've come up in a background check or credit check when he applied for the apartment. There is always a large risk that a tenant fails to pay rent, even before covid. If anything, your family member benefitted from the government offering rental assistance. It sounds like he wasn't fully aware of those risks when he decided to become a landlord. Being a landlord has never been a risk-free investment, but landlords love to pretend they are the victim anytime that risk doesn't pay off.

> “We saw a lot of improvements on many websites and are very happy with the first results. Some major players like Seat, Mastercard or Nikon have instantly changed their practices. However, many other websites have only stopped the most problematic practices. For example, they may have added a ‘reject’ option, but still make it hard to read. The requirement to show a prominent withdrawal option clearly faced the biggest resistance from website owners.”

> I'm not aware of any food that would be considered "ultra-processed" yet known to be good for people

What does "ultra processed" mean? Cheese, bread, olive oil and most vegetables require processing to be made or nutritionally useful. Freeze-dried vegetables are quite processed and quite good for you.
The main issue with law is that it is written in an ambiguous language.

Theoretically you could write more precise laws with code.

Maybe they should have let a group of contract lawyers proofread what the code does. Lawyers look for bugs, inconsistencies, errors, loopholes all the time.

This is reductive and the reality is the system typically fights hard against socialistic policy so we end up with half solutions like a moratorium instead of the government paying the rents on behalf of the tenants. Now you claim "Socialism. Bad." because of it.

> This is one of the scariest outcomes of the eviction moratorium. It is basically solidified the fact that you own nothing and the government can take and do with "your" property as it pleases when it pleases.

Well, but it's property you've rented out to someone else. IMO, once you've done that, it doesn't truly belong to just you, even if the deed is in your name. Someone else has set up their life in your space—and that's why most localities have laws about when you can evict someone and the process you have to go through.
I know Minio can be used for production workloads, but Minio as a localhost substitute for an S3-like store is underrated. S3 dependent projects I work on spin up a Minio instance via docker-compose to get a fully local development experience.
I resent that I have been diligently paying my rent from savings this whole time, even since I lost my job in December, while so many people are avoiding that by gaming the system. Not to speak of anyone who legitimately needs rent assistance or the moratorium.
How do you suppose this would work with, e.g., high-rise apartment buildings?
Have you imagined what a near-future Mars colony will be like? You can't live on the surface, so it will be as high-tech and enclosed and cramped as a space station; an air-tight pressure vessel with no escape. It will have limited energy and resources so there will likely be rationing. It will be vulnerable to any pressure breach or loss of power, so can take no risks with mechanical failure, bad actors, disease spread, etc. so it will likely be sensored and surveilled all over. It will likely be funded in large part or entirely by private investors. Musk has estimated $500k for a ticket to go there and people have estimated $3Bn/year for 30 years to keep a base running with no economic return from that.

No government, no police, no Wild West "run them out of town" option. You think they're going to want to spend $500,000 return flight cost to send potential criminals away or just "let them be" in an environment like that?

The idea that you might be able to go there and "demand your freedom" without being a billionaire owner of the colony is ill-thought-out. Subjects will have no leverage and no options, and leaders will have billions sunk into it and demand obedience like a Navy Submarine.

Well you have to work, so it's better to do it with people you like.

Obviously, if you didn't have to work, you wouldn't work just to see office mates.

But if you do have to work, slogging away in a common place with friends is more compelling than sitting behind a computer.
Dont feed him processed food for breakfast and pack him lunch.
I was referring specifically to the text as quoted, especially “even better than having a fully functional pancreas” :)

I’m intimately familiar with Type 1 diabetes. I find the nuances of what the pancreas does to be quite fascinating, and the closer we get to understanding what matters and to replicating it, the better.

I believe that one wants the pulsatile secretion as well as C-peptide.

There are some recent results on C-peptide as far as I know. I believe there is still a noteworthy amount of C-peptide after the honeymoon, and I believe it is good to try to prolong the honeymoon as long as possible to retain as much C-peptide functionality as possible.

C-peptide is an active signaling molecule. It makes sense: The body produces a complex and easily identifiable protein chain as a byproduct of the crucial insulin molecule. C-peptide is more stable than insulin itself and remains a bit longer in the body. It stands to reason that the ancient and highly-preserved evolutionary function of insulin metabolism has picked up a good use for C-peptide as a signal carrier on the way.
I read besides sci-fi and fantasy a lot of crime fiction. Can highly recommend the Harry Bosch series by Michael Connelly.
Does cereal count as "ultra-processed"? Things like Cheerios don't seem much more processed than bread from what I can tell. Also honey-roasted peanuts?

My understanding of ultra-processed would be things more like candy, cheetos, pringles, oreos, soda, etc.
"Clearly then, mere act of processing something doesn't make the thing bad for you."

It bothers me too, but I think the problem right now is they don't exactly know what part of the "ultra processed" foods is harmful yet.
It's simply a matter of applying a prior: when I hear an organization's claim, I consider the base rate at which past claims have proven trustworthy, adjusting for whether past errors were honest mistakes, noble lies, culpable failures to apply medieval-peasant-tier common sense, the fruit of transparently ulterior motives, and so on. I sure hope they're right in this case but it's not clear why in particular I should think so.

What do you do?
Learning to manage is a lot like learning how to write a novel - at first you think you need all those words but then you can learn to cut fifty percent of what you wrote and still get the same point across. It’s kind of the same deal with the hours spent at work - identify and eliminate time sinks and suddenly you’re doing the same work in half the time.
Who passes zoning restrictions time and time again?
I think the idea is that landlords did accept a risk that if tenants did not pay they would have the legal remedy to evict them.

It was the government that took away their legal remedy without any due process.

Comparing it to any other business, imagine the government coming in and saying you will continue having to operate your business but your customers no longer have to pay.
Knowing that they usually are at the end doesn't help since you still need to write a general runtime check that expresses "are all the bits for this type zero or uninit". Afaik currently there is no way to do this without causing UB. This would need some new intrinsic.
It is simultaneously impressive and underwhelming for me.

Or even correctly using the binary search, does it understand concept like index boundaries?

Is there a way to make pizza that wouldn't be considered junk food? Bread, cheese, tomato sauce. I am hoping that the "junk food" of pizza is because of the stuff added for longer shelf lives or added ... something. Frozen pizza should be the same as bread, cheese and tomato sauce. But I'm guessing it isn't the same.
Update Old Content (Part4)
Seven. Improved resources and new links
You may also want to consider adding new links to better resources while you are updating your old content.
Experts, statistics, infographics, events, and breaking news are all sources of content research, according to Crazy Egg.

Links to new content can be added to old content as you review it. You added a lot of value to your article by introducing new resources that weren't available when you first wrote it.
Additionally, Google sees a much higher value in your content. You can create a more valuable resource that way, as outbound links play a key role in ranking.
You'll get more traction with Google if you link to the best content online. You will become the information hub for others rather than simply linking to those resources.
As a final step, link to your own resources in your content.
You should link to any recent articles you've written on related topics.
Additionally, make sure your current call to action is still relevant to the content you've updated.

Your blog posts can be revived and ranked highly in Google by including fresh resources and in-depth content.
Creating new content or updating old ones is the best way to increase search engine traffic without wasting time or resources.

The eighth point. Rankings can be improved by including multimedia
By adding different kinds of media to your website, you can greatly improve your search engine rankings.
New content that comes with different types of images and audio or video is given special privilege as the content online becomes more diverse.
Depending on your preferences, you may wish to use a variety of types. You can see how you can add media to your posts in this illustration from Salesforce.

Every 350 words or so, it would be wise to include an image.
This makes the content easier to read and skim. (I actually aim to include an image for every 100 words.)
All images should be linked back to their original content. By indicating where an image comes from, others are better able to identify it.
In addition to viewing the images, the application lets you locate updated pieces more easily.
By searching sites such as StumbleUpon for graphics that are sure to grab attention, you can easily find interesting images online if you have difficulty creating them yourself.

You can use this method to make your content attractive without spending a lot of time on it.
Utilizing new types of media will improve Google's search engine results and make your content more engaging.

P.S.
My goal is to help provide the best information I can. I do not participate in spam an always look to improve. If this was any help please feel free to join our newsletter for all up to date content.

The Hidden Costs of Using Cloud Storage with WordPress
> what makes pizza a junk food?

Most pizza in America has sugar in the sauce and dough. The sauce, moreover, tends to be fatty. And the toppings are processed meats, et cetera. If the pizza is prepared in anything but a pizza oven, it's likely also pan fried.
Everything is a trade-off.

On one side, old people are less likely to support new trends, starting with fashion and ending with political causes.

On the other side, they carry a lot of experience. If a sizable minority personally knows the misery of war or hyperinflation, repetition of those miseries becomes less likely. Plenty of political criminals built their careers on naivete of the young.

I think that we will end up with the best of both worlds eventually. If longevity tech succeeds, brains will stay young, but memories will accumulate regardless.
Why not just formalise the whole system and ship the waste to waste-to-energy plants?
An individual technical measure for users wouldn't necessarily prevent, for example, sketchy co-operation between private interests and law enforcement when it appears to benefit both of them (regardless of whether any situation in question was searchable on the public web).
I'd be surprised if commercially made ham didn't fall into the ultraprocessed category!

You can force anything past a HOA by threatening to put up a big ham radio antenna if they block you.

They cannot by law (AIUI) forbid you from putting up a ham antenna!

BTW, dishwashers use way less water than most people do washing dishes by hand.
> Is there a way I can connect with a buyer directly to avoid giving a % to a middleman like this?

Sure. Find the buyer yourself. If you can't or don't know how, then surely it's worth 5% to you. If you don't think it's worth it, then let the options expire.
I think there are efforts to create oracles like LINK, but you’re right that the only trustworthy data is from within the chain.
> If it is needed, should it be spread out among more people.

I agree, but that's kind of my point. There are plenty of people doing 40 hours worth of needed work right now. If we switch to a shorter work week, that work will need to be distributed to more people.

It's not an impossible problem to solve, but OPs comment seems to imply that there are no trade offs to be made if we switched to a 24 hour work week and I'm just trying to point out that that isn't the case.
Moving to Florida or Texas is great until you find yourself in a position where you need a competent, funded government to respond to a crisis that can only be solved through collective action (hurricane, power outages, pandemic). Plus living somewhere with lax environmental and consumer protections can have net negative long term consequences. Some states like Georgia don’t even have yearly car inspections, which goes about as well as you would think. It’s easy to just look at the LCOL and good weather, but you are giving up a lot of services and protections you took for granted living in a higher tax state. Maybe it’s worth it for some people, but it’s not for me
> that eat mainly shells have this set of teeth to tear and crush

I was thinking when I saw the images that there must be some sort of convergent evolution going on. I would love to know what the similarities in our mastication patterns are with these fish. I wonder if our purported history with consuming bone marrow have anything to do with this similarity?
Hah, I've actually looked at Dallas-Fort Worth before and been horrified at how so much of its residential green space is golf courses. Is most of the conurbation as well served by non-car transport or is your area a special case? It looks so low density that it's hard to imagine anything being economically viable. Then again, bike lanes and bike racks are so cheap that they're pretty much free.

I do understand consolidating regular purchases into one trip - I just go to the supermarket for food (and occasionally Asian supermarkets for non-perishables that French supermarkets don't sell). I don't see the added convenience in doing the same with once-in-5-year purchases. If anything I'd probably get fed up with walking past loads of things I wasn't remotely interested in buying. Maybe there's some spontaneity to buying stuff that I just don't have.
Surveys set up by the likes of "Great Place to Work" and similar are nothing but HR and PR fluff. It's set up to be spinned and covered up.
Most of the people who lost their jobs due to COVID were eligible for unemployment, and some even made more on unemployment than their job.

Depends on the property. The article specifically refers to low-income tenants presumably renting low-cost housing. The security deposit is 2mo rent and you don't need to chase them for it.

Probably not too many slumlords on HN, as evidenced by sibling comments.
Yes, exactly this. I realized the separation between work and home is very important to me. The little things, like lunches with colleagues, were something to look forward to.
