You aren't going to win any strong man competitions with this routine, but if you are just trying to keep your body in shape there are a few things to consider.

1) Abs are made in the kitchen. You need to spend a lot of time on the treadmill to burn off a single doughnut. If you skip the doughnut, you can skip the treadmill.

2) Each morning I do one set of pushups, curls, overhead press, lat pulls, and triceps. Probably takes less than three minutes. Back when I went to gyms, I would do 3-4 reps of 5-6 different lifts about twice a week. With travel time, rest between sets, and a shower that would take close to 2 hours per trip. So if you do the math, I am getting 7 reps of 5 exercises per week with a total time of about 20 minutes now vs 6-8 reps of 5-6 exercises per week for a total time of 4 hours. And if you do the math on total elevated heart rate time, the numbers are probably close enough, as there is usually a 10-20 minute recovery period after each workout. If we assume 15 mins, you get 7x15=105 minutes vs 2x(~40+15)=110 minutes. Basically in the ballpark even if the numbers are off a bit.

3) More importantly, I rarely skip the short workout whereas I would regularly skip the gym workouts. I definitely don't feel as good as I did after a gym workout. But I never feel as bad as I did after skipping the gym workouts for a few weeks in a row.

It is worth mentioning that I am not a disciplined eater. So I do go for a 3-4 mile run once a week, a short bike ride 1-2 times, and usually mix in another outdoor activity or two on the weekend. But just in terms of substituting gym time, I think the short daily workouts actually get you most of the way there. I am probably going to start mixing in an afternoon routine as well because it has been such a good development.
What your saying is that the government can compel Apple to develop software and include it in iOS?

Haven’t they always been able to do that?
To make a minor nitpick, Bitcoin was created in response to the GFC bailouts, which was essentially forced government action as a result of private banking greed, fraud, and / or incompetence.

The circumvention you mention is incidental, not primary. "Something better" was the, admittedly lofty, goal. And if not purely "something better" then at least "an alternative".

It's even better ... You don't have to "sell" it to individuals who might want to know if it is worth the price. You talk to some high level government people and haggle on something that is good for both your short term bonus/stock price goals and their long term enrichment plans.
Yes, it would, because they need to have the original CSAM image in order to forge the hash collision. This method doesn't work unless you have the original photo to look at, meaning that your device will be raising alerts just as much as the targets, except you will be the only one incriminated since the target doesn't actually have any CSAM, only the hash-collided fake that you've made.
> As others have said, maybe if you spent $15 on a purpose-built, non-BPA, reliable water bottle, you would use it less because your mind wouldn't perceive it to be disposable.

You have the causality exactly backwards. It is the frequency with which I have lost expensive water bottles that caused me to stop using them in most situations.

Yes, but they aren't going to care for just 2400 pages.

As a general rule, make your scraper non-paralell, and put a user-agent that has contact details in the event of an issue, and you're probably all good.

After all wikipedia is meant to be used. Don't be unduly disruptive, don't scrape 20 million pages, but scraping a couple thousand is totally acceptable.

Why isn't rel="nofollow" a solution to this? According to the docs [1]

Use the nofollow value when other values don't apply, and you'd rather Google not associate your site with, or crawl the linked page from, your site.

It seems like crawling a nofollow anchor tag in an email breaks this rule. Am I reading it wrong, is there an exception for emails, or is Google being inconsistent?

>as always the real elephant in the room is that inflation is not bad per se, except for those whose wages don't grow as much as the inflation.

...Inflation affects savings too. So it doesn't matter that ones salary may increase at the same rate of inflation when the buying power of your savings in diminished by the rate of inflation. Tired of hearing the myopic view that inflation effectively does nothing if wages rise in step, it's just straight up incorrect.
From the very beginning of the web when HTTP was defined, there has been the rule that a GET request should never take an action on its own. Actions should be based on some other method like a POST request.

Maybe, but then several decades passed and now billions of people don't use online systems the same ways any more. It used to be that I could send a legitimate mail to a friend or family member and not worry that whatever mail system they use would refuse to deliver it to them because my system didn't jump through several not-quite-standard hoops that didn't exist when the email protocols were defined. Google seem fine with discarding the historical standards on which most of the Internet is built in that situation.

In any case, if a communications service is going to snoop on your private communications and take actions that would be impossible without spying on you, I think the burden is 100% on them not to screw anything up for anyone, ever.
This is a common misconception (I blame American politics). In _perfect competition_ this would hold true; however a _free_ market is not guaranteed to be competitive, much less close to _perfect_ competition.

Yep, sorry, Dickerson was an appellant that cited the relevant case law, which is New York v Ferber.

Now, Dickerson rightfully lost and it's appropriate that SCOTUS rejected his case because he was involved in child porn production, not posession, so he can't rely on the Ferber precedent. He had the opportunity to ask the underage person in question their age, and chose not to, which would meet the reckless disregard standard anyway.

From the Treasury website:

The pertinent portion of law that applies to your question is the Coinage Act of 1965, specifically Section 31 U.S.C. 5103, entitled "Legal tender," which states: "United States coins and currency (including Federal reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal reserve banks and national banks) are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues."

This statute means that all United States money as identified above are a valid and legal offer of payment for debts when tendered to a creditor. There is, however, no Federal statute mandating that a private business, a person or an organization must accept currency or coins as for payment for goods and/or services.

~

The important distinction is payment for goods or services vs payment for a debt. Dine-in restaurants work on debt (you eat the food then pay for it), but grocery stores work on payment for goods (you get the food and pay for it in one transaction).
7am–6pm sounds a bit like "grind"
> This is total and utter bullshit. It is a complete misunderstanding of how the system works.

No it's not. It's an extrapolation based on known facts.

Governments can and will coerce companies into changing things about their systems, but the main limitation is that at least in the US, the government can't coerce creative work.

But that's just the thing - flipping a bit here or there, or adding non-CSAM image hashes to the database, is all possible and accessible to wiretap warrants, since doing so is a simple change to a system that already exists.

There's a principle here: trust good security system design, but do not trust system operators, since they can be coerced (legally or otherwise). A secure system that requires trusting particular people who operate it is not designed well.
> Maybe Voat was more naive since white supremacy doesn't monetize the way porn does but I'd be skeptical there too.

Have a look at the front page of Voat. I’m not even gonna check it myself because I’ve seen enough. I guarantee you that 50% or more of everything on the front page of Voat at any moment will be very obviously white supremacist type content. They know. And by letting those people dominate their platform for so long, they are effectively saying that white supremacists are welcome on their site, and that they are ok with giving a platform to people who are looking to spread hate against others based on ethnicity and nationality.
Objectively, they also charge much higher fees because of the high chargeback rates associated with porn. They also tend to process other unsavory transactions, which also have higher chargeback rates; hence they are "shady."

There is no actual rule stated in the quoted material, and it describes it aa a mechanism for specifying a preference for how Google handles the link when Google encounters the tag on the creator’s site, which a user email on Gmail...isn't, even approximately.

You’re still clinging to the absurd assumption that everyone wants to work in STEM and the only reason one wouldn’t work in STEM is because they couldn’t “hack it.”

Not everyone who works in STEM is even competent at it, for most roles it is not required. You have probably encountered some of them yet they’re still employed.

What is necessary to work in any field is an interest in doing so, that’s why I chose that word.
I honestly thought that Jakob Nielson earned his keep by having gotten the basics enough mind share to make the situation better than fond memories for turn of the century web designers.

Being surrounded by designers at the time, all who became developers soon after, the loss of elementary design and UI knowledge I believe is due to the vacuum left behind when the on ramp to get a Internet job became programmatic instead of visual arts.

However possibly the same effect can't happen in the same way again because early in the century coding for the web meant mainly fancy graphics and Flash, nothing related to let alone connected with the plumbing.

(ActionSctipt was good enough for a friend who was a novice but desiccated and earnest programmer to write a Flash demo of a insulin regulator device that was so good his simulation from the specifications was used as a reference through to certification of the C and assembly embedded implementation. A ESP8266 for ActionSctipt would be awesome. This guy lost windows for Linux the instant the penny dropped that the greatest most important barrier to this profession, for the majority, is voodoo FUD and a matter of self confidence and reading the right books. This most recent generation doesn't seem to have a equivalent reading culture similar to how we assembled libraries of O'Reilley titles in our offices and homes - everyone who I remember purchased additional titles in fields that they didn't know about, every single time they bought required references something additional got smuggled into patiently awaiting brains. I copied this at my office letting anyone add a extra title every ten references. This almost immediately became a proper budget for a library but suddenly the requests dried up unexpectedly. We realised the attraction was having snuck the expense onto the job budget people took them home to read only afterwards bringing them back into circulation out of unnecessary sensitivity. This is why I passionately hate hermetically sealed corporate systems. Creativity needs inspiration even from a little lisp (or whatever) learning larceny.
How so? Murder seems to be very looked down upon in most cultures and is not generally accepted. There are nations that wage war, yes, but this is not generally accepted as good. And in daily life, murder has been basically banished completely (compared to, for example, 200 years ago, where murders for honor or duels were more socially acceptable).

I think the real question is: why not use trigrams of bytes (from the UTF8 representation) instead of Unicode codepoints? Seems like that would simplify everything.

If they have data showing that doesn't work as well in practice, I'd love to know what it is, because I can't think of a reason off the top of my head why it wouldn't work well. Obviously it could only be worse in non-ASCII situations, which are already super-rare.
> neither were even direct competitors

I assume this is completely unintentional, but the narrative that Facebook was just expanding into new markets is pure revisionism. It was very clear around the time of purchase that Facebook considered Instagram to be a competitor, and that fact has since been verified through leaked Facebook emails and documents.

Facebook's concern was that social paradigms would shift and that Facebook would not be the predominant way that people communicated in the future. To get around that problem they aggressively targeted almost every small company in the space. Their goal was to make it so that the market couldn't shift quickly in any direction at all until Facebook had already become the dominant player within that shifted market.

The purchases were designed to make sure that there was never any opportunity for a competitor to build a large, secure userbase before Facebook had an opportunity to replicate their features.

Here's the direct quote from Zuckerberg himself[0]:

> One way of looking at this is that what we’re really buying is time. Even if some new competitors springs up, buying Instagram, Path, Foursquare, etc now will give us a year or more to integrate their dynamics before anyone can get close to their scale again. Within that time, if we incorporate the social mechanics they were using, those new products won’t get much traction since we’ll already have their mechanics deployed at scale.

Facebook's concern about horizontal integration was not about expanding their business, it was about protecting the company from potential changes in the social landscape. This tactic was being discussed as recently as 2020, and we literally have scores of internal documents describing Facebook's mindset. How are people's memories so short about this?
