Oculus Quest 2 - It opens up a vast world of content and experiences (many free) with very few "gotchas." The user experience and learning curve are delightfully smooth. Also, for a product from big, scary company like Facebook, the Oculus team acts more like a startup and has been releasing truly innovative, useful upgrades almost continuously since the headset came out. I haven't felt like a single piece of technology has opened up new vistas (literally) like this since PCs, DVRs, the Internet and smartphones.

Q: Why does it take OverSight, a few seconds to display the webcam/mic usage notification?

A: There is not easy way to determine what process is using the webcam or mic, when either is activated. Worse, there is no direct indication that a new process is accessing an existing a webcam session. Thus OverSight has to perform various tests and has to poll the system (only when the camera/mic is active) in order to determine what process(es) is/are accessing the device. This takes a few seconds...mahalo for your patience!

My understanding is that iCloud backup is specified by the user per app (can default to on). Going into my iPhone->Settings->Authenticator there are no iCloud settings and iPhone->Settings->iCloud shows lots of apps but Authenticator is not one of them.

I have iCloud backup on, have switched through at least 2 phones (as in 6+->10->11) where I have Google Authenticator on. The new phone never had any of the Authenticator codes after restoring yet all the other apps restored their data.

I corrected my op to clear up ambiguity. What I meant was our understanding of “the truth” evolves and crystallizes over time. Not Truth itself (the truth I was referring to in my OP was our own truth about the truth).

That was one of the four outlying defense bases to defend the Safeguard radars. The huge radar at the main base in the center is still working, and the main site is still a USAF installation.

The US has some working missile defenses. Vandenberg is the main US launch site for them. They might be able to stop an attack from North Korea, or at least thin it out a bit. They only have 30 interceptors or so, which is nowhere near enough to do much against a superpower attack. That missile defense operation is run by the Army, not the USAF or Space Force.

Some US Navy ships have anti-ICBM capability, but that's only useful if a ship happens to be in the right position at the right time.

The implied question, is if this is an unusually high incident rate. ie Just how many aggressively dangerous dogs exist and how frequently they are encountered in police action. The statement was an anecdotal sample of an area where people are running, you can get attacked without additional circumstance.

40 years in California, I'd only ever been assaulted by dogs a handful of times and that's because they weren't controlled. Dogs are generally allowed to run freely in their own yards/homes so it makes sense that strangers/police entering yards and homes in a stressful situation, encounter aggressive animals much more frequently.

No, actually.

People living in states, still have to pay federal taxes. They still have to follow federal laws. And federal armies still have bases, in these states, and defend those borders.

People living in Taiwan do not have to pay taxes to China. They do not have to follow China laws. And if a fighter plane, from china, flew across Taiwan, it would get shot down by the Taiwanese military.

That is why Taiwan is a country, and is different than the states example.

"There are really only 2 options we are seeing for patients here.

"Dialysis here. All my new patients in the past six months have had their kidneys damaged due to covid. All of them."

> What can you say in this language that would be impossibly inconvenient to say in others?

This ideology is why I believe so strongly in the power of SQL (and similarly-expressive functional/DSLs). They are effectively limitless in their ability to describe problem spaces. In SQL, joining 30 different dimensions of data is a matter of the same # of lines of SQL. Doing such a thing in any imperative language would be a medium nightmare at best. Even with LINQ at your disposal, this is not fun.

I actually did not realize it was possible to construct a useful piece of business software that exclusively uses SQL for its domain logic until ~18 months ago. Turns out the trick is to go all-in and just make sure 100% of the relevant domain state is represented in the schema. You also have to understand why database normalization is important if you go down this road. The only reason you would fail to model something properly is lack of imagination, experience and/or discipline. These tools are limitless.

There is also the benefit to the business. You can print off all of the tables as excel spreadsheets and review them with non-technical stakeholders. I find this much preferable to explaining how procedural code works to non-wizards.

So, I would say - Weird languages - Absolutely yes.

But, also go check out some of these new tricks you can teach to old mainstream things. If you want to play around with these ideas, getting SQL into your application is absolutely trivial with SQLite these days. We are using it in production for this purpose right now. My project managers are more familiar with the product's schema than I am at this point, because they are authoring BL in SQL today. This is where you really want to be, IMO.

My point is that it's actually fairly recent and aside from a maybe a few hundred more years of riding that wave, there's no reason to think white people will continue to be a dominant group.
