Same with 2FA. Just like a Locksmith it's a "human in the loop" situation where you'll need to give identification etc.

I’m not sure if it’s abuse. In The Netherlands, ING got a €750,000,000 fine from the government (the largest ever in this country) for not doing enough to prevent money laundering. It basically ate up the entire quarterly profits.

So I don’t think it’s so much “abusing a dominant position” as “being subject to so many regulations and potential fines that it’s almost always better to just not engage in some business than to take any risk”. Lost revenue from OnlyFans is peanuts compared to potential fines for “facilitating sex trafficking”.

I know plenty of people in the lower middle class, middle class, upper middle class, and the rich. You’re deeply out of touch with what it’s like to be in the middle class and the rich if you think it’s lower stress to be in the middle class. The rich self-impose their stress and could give it up if they wanted to. (And I watch those who do and they take it very easy) The middle class don’t impose their stress, it’s an externality they cannot control.
Interestingly, it is the Left faction of San Francisco politics that have been slipping clauses like that (allowing legislative amendments, but requiring an estimated percentage that would overcome the current opponents and requiring amendments to “further the purpose” of the act) into local initiatives recently. June 2018 Proposition F (free lawyer to tenants facing eviction, which is a policy that both sides supported), allowed the BoS to amend “if the amendment serves to further the purpose of this Initiative” https://webbie1.sfpl.org/multimedia/pdf/elections/June5_2018.... Then in November 2018 Proposition C (double the gross receipts tax to fund homelessness, which is a policy that only the Left minority at the time supported and the Mayor opposed), allowed the BoS to amend “by a two-thirds vote but only to further the Findings and intent” https://webbie1.sfpl.org/multimedia/pdf/elections/november6-... In Nov 2019 Proposition F (increase disclosure requirements political ads, supported by the Left faction of the BoS) similarly had a nonstandard amendment procedure calculated to include the Left faction’s estimated percentage https://webbie1.sfpl.org/multimedia/pdf/elections/November5_... The failed rent control enabling California initiatives (Proposition 10 Nov 2018 https://vig.cdn.sos.ca.gov/2018/general/pdf/topl.pdf#page=83, Proposition 21 Nov 2020 https://vig.cdn.sos.ca.gov/2020/general/pdf/topl.pdf#page=29) as well as a millionaire’s tax to fund mental health (Proposition 2 Nov 2018 https://vig.cdn.sos.ca.gov/2018/general/pdf/topl.pdf#page=13) also contained 2/3 supermajority amendmendability.

So basically the authors of Proposition 22 took this clause that the Left has been evolving in San Francisco anti-business initiatives and copied it to their pro-business California initiative (changing the supermajority requirement to 87.5% to overcome the 73% who supported AB5), and this clause is contributing to the downfall of their own initiative. Ironic!

It’s common in my circle. They don’t take up the normal jobs they would’ve otherwise. Instead of high pressure roles that would resemble their background better they role play as a middle class earner while being FI.
I feel like this is reductive and a better way of looking at the question is that for any given situation you have to figure out where to most effectively allocate your available cognitive load budget.

Sometimes, all the things the IDE lets you not think about is hugely more helpful than the additional cognitive load of modeling what the IDE itself is doing in your head.

Sometimes, having the thinnest possible layer between you and what you're running is hugely more helpful than the additional cognitive load of handling the things the IDE would've turn for you in wetware.

As ever, it's trade-offs all the way down.

A bet on a French style revolution in the US is as much of a fever dream at this point as a bet on a Chinese like resurgence in the US. It's looking like America will end on more of a sad note like Western Imperial Rome rather than the explosive end of Imperial France or awe inspiring resurgence of China.

Hundreds of years slow, steady decline. Stewardship gripped by ineptitude and kleptocracy. Even its brightest citizens being wholly unequal to the task of building the physical and systemic structures, (or even fixing the existing structures), necessary to save itself. "Warlords" growing too wealthy on the body of the golden goose during the decline to ever allow its head to be chopped off. In the end no one even cared enough to chop the western roman emperor's head off. Odoacer just sent him away and said, "your services will no longer be needed". (Translation: All the money we could steal from your treasury is now gone. Go home.)

I guess Romulus was still kind of young? So I suppose he could still use the whole, "I used to be emperor of Rome" thing to impress girls at parties maybe?

In any case, that's the most likely end awaiting the US. Another possibility is a break, like the Western-Eastern Roman Empire split. In which case, the same sad slow decline style end would happen. Only it would probably happen in each of the multiple resultant political entities instead of happening in only one.
> So if you use blank lines in any of your files, you are in blatant violation of AT&T's copyright claim

Independent derivation of a work is defense against copyright infringement.

Even if the copyright on these blank lines were to be valid, it would be reasonable to claim that your own use of blank lines was independent, not a derivative work copying from theirs.

Patents do not require actual copying to infringe, but copyright does. If you can prove you did not know of the original work, or otherwise would have come up with the same thing on your own, that's enough to absolve you of copyright issues.
That definitely does happen with really poorly considered starting points, but in my experience it's also maybe a day's work to pull that apart and put it into Maven/Gradle (unless you've also got, like, some really terrifying ant stuff to go with it, and even then you can sometimes ask "is this even necessary?" and get with the chopping down).

Not OP but to me the best thing about PowerShell is that it recognizes that text is not always the best way to output results from commands if you care about creating pipelines. In short, it passes objects around so there's no need for parsing text.

This looks really interesting! I do appreciate how clunky the DB-API is, this looks like a really nice alternative.

Losing weight is essentially a stress on the body, the response of which is to produce a lot of cortisol, which in turn can mess with testosterone and other hormones.

For me the caloric restriction leads to so much cortisol that I can’t really sleep properly no matter how much I try to exhaust myself.

Keto seems to be kinder (in week 3, of trying it for the 3rd time, previous times unsuccessful). But too early to say for sure.
Wow! You're not kidding.

I just did a quick search and found this [1] It's the exact same 1 minute scene from UK and US. The UK is constructive criticism and wholesome banter. The US version cuts the playful banter as if he's just being mean, adds music and a narrator of doom, cuts his concern about her going home to her daughter, and her "very good day" quote is way out of context.

Perhaps I’m totally going Euro but shouldn’t the MBA in charge at least try to measure employee happiness, churn
and absence to try and measure if the work is fulfilling? I work at a large listed insurer and I know nobody shits on the hard work customer facing colleagues do. It’s hard work, with often old IT and usually customers outside of the fast track that have unique needs. Our senior

I would split your point in two dimensions: 1. Software should support efficiency and speed. (We often fail at that.) 2. Tough jobs exist and it’s up to the employer to make them worthwhile and at the least prevent burn-out.

Just a correction for you, there's not a list of approved images. The CSAM database are a list of illegal (unapproved if you will) images.

Other than that, yes it's possible to add noise to an image so a perceptual algorithm misidentifies it. I described the false positive case but it can also be used for false negatives. Someone can apply noise to a legit CSAM image (in the NCMEC database) so Apple's system fails to identify it.

The false positive case is scary because if it happens to you your life is ruined. The false negative case just means people have CSAM and don't get found by the system. I'm much more concerned about the false positive case.
I didn't study at any such high-profile universities, and my initial touching points with graduates from top universities did not exactly lead me to believe they were anything special, apart from their parents wealth. Most of them had an MA or even PHD that was paid for in high tuition fees. They did not feel anymore intelligent or educated than the average person I meet, and they did not do anything particularly interesting.

Then later I had the pleasure of spending some time with true outliers, who usually also studied at top universities. Some of them would be obsessed with their field of study, and seriously work 80 hours a week on papers and projects. Some of them seem like completely normal people, with social lives and hobbies, and then you see the work they do and are just blown away at the genius they put in there somehow.

And then there are the behemoths; you can throw any topic at them, and they will say something interesting. There are few things more mindboggling and intimidating than introducing someone to a topic you are intimately familiar with, and they basically immediately answer one of your open questions, while asking a much more interesting and deep question regarding the topic.

You can find geniuses anywhere, but in my limited experience, there's a much higher density of these kinds of people at these places. But, because of how the top universities are structured, the inverse isn't true: Going to a top university does not make you better.
I'd absolutely make sacrifices for friends and vice versa. Much more so than any relative that is not my direct family with whom I don't have any relationship beyond happening to be somewhat close on a family tree.

GNU Parallel can be sourced into a bash session from a plain text file and used as a function. I've used it to get around overly-restrictive build environments. (overly restrictive because the team that manages the build image wasn't open to modifying their image for my use case)
Also for the `while` enthusiasts, here's how you zip the output of two processes in bash:

paste -d \\n <(do_something1) <(do_something2) | while read -r var1 && read -r var2; do
... # var1 comes from do_something1, var2 comes from do_something2
done
Another main distinction is one pays you and the other charges you.

What this all fails to consider are the undisclosed incentives and motivations of those “doing the science”.

It is shockingly easy to lie with statistics, massage experimental results, or just straight up fabricate the whole damn thing to further your career, get a grant, ego or whatever.

What percentage of published research papers are able to be reproduced? Very few.

Many “non-intellectuals” inherently know all of the above about human nature, but suffer ridicule when they don’t “trust the science”. It doesn’t take a blue check mark next to your name to realize that people are fallible and will lie to get ahead.
Funnily enough a few people have written to me about that.

I was a bit fortunate, I actually applied to be a derivatives trader out of uni. Which I did, but I ended up in a hedge fund, which was a type of firm I'd never heard of until the day I started working in one. I started reading a LOT of stuff about it.

The mid-2000s were a bit of a golden age for hedge funds, and investors were just throwing money at them. I went to a lot of investment meetings where I wondered what on earth we'd said that was so attractive.

At one point my boss in a derivs fund told me there was too much money, and that we needed to find something to do with it. By this time I'd read a bit about automated trading, and I figured some sort of strategy utilizing computers to trade would be the thing to do. So the boss decided to have me hire quants and devs to do this, and I've been in that area since. Pretty unique position to be honest, most people don't do it this way, and they don't get to just hire a team while in their mid 20s. Good learnings though.

I think anything that reduces the number of different places that information or discussion may happen is good. The thought of having a mix of code/code review/wiki/other wiki/email/chat/list archives/jira/shared inbox/trello is not appealing to me. There’s some continuum where adding a system changes things from good to annoying and I think my own feelings put that place more towards the “fewer systems” end than where other people put it.
Good. There are also bits of advice in "Deep Work" from Cal Newport. He writes about a daily "shutdown procedure" 20mins before leaving work. I mainly apply it by writing down all of the day's leftover "todos" as detailed as possible on postits so that I can leave the office with peace in mind. I find it helpful and rewarding.
So far as I can tell from having worked with lots of people with lots of different preferences, there is basically no correlation between preferences in debugging approaches and ability/productivity.

I do however really wish the world made it easier to help turn both state introspection via interactive debugger and state introspection via printf shotgun into structured trace-level logging that could be shared and/or committed to the codebase independent of the original debugging tool used.
Yes! If your data is too big to comfortably manipulate in memory with R/Python/your language of choice, and the data is (or can be made to be) tabular, the next best place for it is a relational database. If you don't have an existing server that's well-suited, use SQLite or DuckDB, the "SQLite of analytics". Definitely use a columnar database if you're going to be doing complex queries and joins.

This is battle-worn experience and I will absolutely die on this hill. Relational databases JUST WORK.

The only exception is when you need to do complex ML on big data, in which case, take your pick from Apache Spark, Dask, or some similar framework. Hopefully these will be increasingly supplemented by in-database ML going forward, so that there is no reason to ever leave the database.

If it's already been paid for, then either a lot are going to waste, because they expire, or they are going somewhere else, which means my individual demand, while tiny, is not irrelevant.

I felt miserable on Keto the first two times I tried it. I’ve found doing fasting in the month prior helped with the adaptation and a large part of the misery was loss of electrolytes.

> They could have asked whether the numerous videos of people playing cards or moving to the back seat while Autopilot is engaged—which Tesla warns against, but does not block—constitute “predictable abuse” of Autopilot’s design.

Saying Tesla "does not block" those things it is misleading. There are safety features to ensure the driver doesn't do those things, which those people were intentionally defeating.
That's a good idea. I'll look into it, thanks!

Adding copyright notices to every source code file is reasonable because it costs next to nothing. Figuring out what is copyrightable, on the other hand, is expensive, because it requires lawyers, and a waste of time because lawyers' answers are always "it depends". You never actually know how enforceable your copyright claim is until you actually litigate, which is REALLY expensive.
