You still can't read and still can't follow logic and show your bias for the Democratic party. And the Democratic Party is pro environment and isn't hypocritical?

> "Seem to be "pro-business", "small government" Republican states."

Wait there are Democratic states that do the same. Both partial and total bans. So Democrats aren't hypocritical about being pro environment?

> Total bans are worse than partial bans

You said that C was not so bad. I said it wasn't knowable and therefore your statement shows your bias since it possible C >> L in the future. So you saying that partial bans is not as bad as total bans doesn't hold. There goes all your counts.

In fact, we do know that one state already it has reached its limits. Go look at my guesstimate of Ford dealerships in NY. 200 vs the 5 limit.

Have you considered the possibility that the existence of limits dissuades companies from expanding there first?

Go look at Texas and Tesla complaining about the
total ban. So a limit of 1 would be materially different from 0 when you expect 1 dealership per 20000 people in a state with almost 29 million people?

Is NY fine?

NY 5 dealerships, population 19.75 million

Is Ohio fine?

OH 3 dealerships, population 11.74 million

Is Pennsylvania fine?

PA 5 dealerships, population 13 million

No limit:

MA 5 dealerships, population 6.794 million

So you should expect between 14 and 15 for NY. Too bad Tesla is growing at 50%. So that will be 22 this year. For Ohio, roughly 8 instead of 3. Is that ok? How about with 50% growth? That would be 12. Same with Pennsylvania.

Even your numbers make it look pretty bad.

Can you hear yourself?

They do it.

But you do it too.

But they are worse.

It probably helps him keep his job. At the moment Abbott doesn't really have an Democrat opponent. His biggest concerns are being primaried by more Trumpian politicians.

If your son was using any of the Turtle languages (Logo) before, he might be interested in NetLogo and NetLogo3D which are very much the grown-up versions of Logo, but just as easy to learn as the more educational versions.

Here's an example of what it looks like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7O2fSZ0OwuE

It's used in agent based modeling, so there are layers of education possible in learning the language and the many models that come with it.

Another thing I totally recommend is a Raspberry Pi Pico (very inexpensive), a Pico Explorer Base, and a handful of electronic components which are easy to find in kit form. There he can learn electronics and the Python programming language at the same time. I have one and I really enjoy jamming on it.

Well, I wouldn't even consider it much of a win for Epic considering:

1. The court affirmed Apple's right to terminate Epic's developer account and ban them from the App Store which will have underlying consequences to their Unreal Engine business.

2. The court fully rejected Epic's monopolization claims which deals a huge blow to their goal of running their own app store.

3. It's not clear whether Apple is prohibited from charging commissions or licensing fees on purchases made outside of the IAP system. Everyone is assuming so, and the accounting would be much more complicated, but if you read through the ruling the judge repeatedly agrees that Apple is entitled to some sort of compensation for the use of their intellectual property. It may very well be that developers will be allowed to add external payment options but will still owe Apple some form of commission/licensing fee in exchange.
The entire Western WA metro area would be completely 100% screwed. You ain't getting over the cascades in a car. You can barely get over it on a regular US holiday. Going north? Yeah good luck fighting with the 10+ million Canadians trying to come south after their own inland routes are taken over by chaos. You could maybe go South and then inland up the Columbia, but then you'd have to pass through the radioactive wasteland that would be the bombed out Hanford reservation
Why? Because I don’t give a damn I’m just here to write code and make piles of money and interesting tech makes it less dull.
For better or for worse, I'm not sure the aggregate direction Microsoft takes as a company is either altruistic or malicious, I'm pretty sure it's ultimately profit driven.

I expect there are MS engineers who see this as altruistic and executives that see this as a way to keep developers from moving off Windows and ultimately as customers. In the end, I'm not sure what this will mean for "desktop Linux". I've already had one colleague dump "bare metal Linux" in favor of Win10 + WSL2.
Gaming is a big one. Gaming PCs are energy hogs.
>I loathe the potential future landscape. Every fortune 500 is going to immediately pivot to their own IAP options which will make my life harder compared to Apple Pay.

Then maybe Apple shouldn't have gotten greedy...

This is the problem with major companies that think they can just control everything. Then when the government steps in they say what they were doing is anti-competitive and suddenly the consumers now have to bear the brunt of the negative aspect of full on competition. Had Apple just been reasonable and not charged egregious fees from the get go, this wouldn't have been an issue.
Reminds me of how excited I was to get a USB Ethernet port for my Packard Bell 1st gen pentium 60mhz that was discounted because it had the floating point bug. But yeah it just didn't work due to failing drivers and that is when I realized that the future promised by these plug and play protocols was going to be fraught by the same hardware compatibility challenges that make building systems hard. I also have a motherboard currently where the usb-c port only works at USB 2.0 speeds in both Linux and Windows. I get the feeling that it is probably just broken for everyone who had this model and support didn't have much to say either. This stuff is hard and one can hope that it eventually gets figured out but I suspect not.
Google Translate often fails spectacularly, DeepL is a lot better but it fails too.

I imagine the pairs of languages plays a part, and of course the prose.

Regardless; there will always be ambiguities, and many sometimes-important-subtleties are bound to be lost in translation. Even when a professional human does it.

(Also your prediction being half a dozen decades late isn't particularly useful.)
As far as I know, both the NT kernel and the WSL2 Linux kernel use the same hypervisor below them.

So, I just gave it a shot. Seems pretty nice, definitely pretty syntax highlighting and basic autocomplete was simple to get up and running.

However, I think this project has the same issue as basic VIM/NVIM, in that if you're coming from something like VS Code it's not super obvious what plugins account for what functionality, or how you can replicate your workflow. For example, I had to google "Treesitter", which seems to be an AST parser. Okay, that's awesome that they have that, but what exactly do that do for me?

On top of that, immediately ran into issues with the autocomplete not picking up my venv, not completing function signatures, etc etc. And diving into the config now apparently means I need to learn the lua language.

Sorry don't mean to rant to you specifically. Just secretly wish I was one of these 20 year VIM guys with perfectly honed configs, but not enough time in the day.
First off, I was just framing the parent’s post in the modern usage of “exception that proves the rule” and not making any claims myself, so perhaps reconsider who’s making unfounded assumptions here.

> You have no idea what other people in pay disputes end up doing.

But also this is a super weak argument. I don’t have “no idea”—I have an educated guess that most people don’t have family friends who work at Google. Most people don’t have the resources to sue an employer over a few hours of unpaid labor. Wage theft is one of the most extensive unprosecuted crimes, that’s been studied and shown many times.

Are you suggesting that one should assume that most low-level employees in pay disputes get happy outcomes? That seems…naive.
I’m a huge fan of Postgres. This one is “user error”, but we still got bit pretty hard.

A query plan changed, on a frequently-run query (~1k/sec) on a large table (~2B rows) without warning. Went from sub-millisecond to multi-second.

The PG query planner is generally very good, but also very opaque. The statistics collected during an ANALYZE and used by the planner are subject to some significant caveats. Essentially, the planner would sometimes wildly mis-estimate costs due to under-sampling, and would choose a bad plan. We fixed it in two different ways: 1) lower the auto-ANALYZE threshold; 2) increase the number of rows sampled when collecting statistics for the relevant column.

Again, this was “user error”. That said, it will probably happen again on the same or another query, because it’s hard to know if/when a query plan is about to change, and pg_hint_plan and similar are very heavy-handed solutions.
> • I run the external displays at 200% scaling and the internal at 300% to match the differing pixel density. I didn't see any way to support this configuration in Ubuntu, much less be able to move an app window between displays and have it automatically update its scaling factor to match the display. This works "out of the box" in Windows.

This works if you use Wayland rather than X11. I'm using a similar configuration today.

> You described people who believed it as “detached from reality.” Is that not tantamount to saying it’s obvious?

Not the op, but it clearly was detached from reality. 1) It was false, therefore not reality. 2) The people who believed it were journalists, who should know to check first and also should know not to believe everything you read.
AFAIK Thunderbolt could be less-marketingly-termed External PCIe --- and from that perspective, it is amazing that multiple-gigabits-per-second can be transferred on a thin cable between a computer and external devices, with "acceptably small" (but clearly not zero) error rates. I believe the spec is unfortunately still proprietary and confidential, which certainly reduces the number of people who can even try to fix any bugs in implementations.

I should note that Big Sur is very stable, requiring only weekly-ish reboots.

Wow. That's not what I would call "very stable" at all --- unless you mean in the context of using Thunderbolt devices.
To be honest, with the amount of video meetings I have, I invested in a far better audio setup than Bluetooth headset microphone.

The amount of meetings I've had where the audio from the other end sounds like the BART announcements is too high...

That being said, I know what you mean. However, I'm actually rather annoyed at the headset microphone functionality on windows, because if anything starts using the microphone, it switches modes and the audio quality goes way, way down. Fine for a zoom call maybe, but having horrible audio in a video game is not fun. I constantly have to go to control panel to turns off hands-free telephony.
It is so companies can lay off entire teams at a whim.

When I was at MSFT, one of the orgs I was in was infamous for having over 50% vendors. On more than one occasion entire teams would be laid off when budget cuts happened.

It is bad for FTE morale to regularly lay off 100 FTEs, less bad to lay off 100 vendors.

My problem is more with the ecosystem than reliability; granted, I don’t need too much from it, just some screens, networking and USB. But that’s just a giant pain to figure out in general. Adapters and cables that require painstaking research to get right (and even then a lot of YMMV on the user’s end) are insanely frustrating. I live in a small Eastern European country so for me the idea of using two 4K screens I already had at 60 on a brand new MacBook Pro involved a day’s research and ordering stuff from abroad and waiting more than a week to find out if it would even work or not. And I think of myself as tech literate…

While I understand the ‘elegance’ factor of the nice and compact USB C ports and the expandability of Thunderbolt, I’m glad that I don’t have changing needs because it would frustrate me to constantly have to look into everything and potentially keep having to buy stuff from other countries just to be able to make use of these ports.

But tldr; my TB3 to DisplayPort adapters work well enough that I only reboot the computer for updates.
I agree with most of these. The NYT calculator is very sensitive to the marijuana legalization and science questions.

According to this CDU still opposes, though they proposed liberalization as part of compromise with greens: https://mjbizdaily.com/germany-rejects-recreational-marijuan...

On the science question, I think CDU would be a strong disagree. Germans are obviously science driven, but they don’t try to “sciencify” fundamental values questions like Americans. The premise of Christian democracy is religion as a source of truth and values in politics.

Unfortunately database design and database administration are entire fields of expertise unto themselves, and I've never seen a resource that covers 100% of the need-to-know info. Oracle, SQL Server, Postgres, and MySQL are all massive, complex, and old, and they have lots of hidden footguns in them.

You should start by knowing how other people design the type of DB you're building. A reporting DB is going to work very differently from a transactional DB. If you're using PG's excellent JSONB support as an alternative to Mongo, that's also something you need to consider at the design stage.

pgbouncer is very commonly used in PG setups, to the point where I don't understand why it isn't included in the default build.

Right. Sorry for assuming U.S. circumstances. We actually have milk sold in supermarkets labeled "grass-fed" and costing up to twice as much as the "regular" milk. I sometimes forget how weird the U.S. is.

In normal places, grass is the cheapest thing to feed cows on. So, I buy all my cheese and butter from Europe and New Zealand.

In the US, in order to compete with dairies feeding cows massively federally subsidized corn, they have to label normal milk as "grass-fed". The cows fed corn have to also be fed antibiotics, because eating just corn makes them sick. And, of course, the corn is grown with copious pesticides. Cows are also fed cottonseed meal, which also makes them sick. Cotton is grown with pesticides not allowed on food crops, for reasons.

U.S. corn production is so heavily subsidized, they had to start turning it into sugar, and then pumping that into practically all food, to try to use it up. The Feds further subsidize turning it into alcohol, and require refiners to add that to all the gasoline.

Archer Daniels Midland is the main beneficiary of the alcohol subsidy.

>Unless there's some weird process or catalyst that makes atmospheric CO2 to consumer grade plastic the absolutely cheapest way to extract CO2

Well, given that the way we do that is by growing plants, and most CO2 sequestering strategies involve... growing plants, it doesn't sound as far-fetches as you're trying to make it.
Are you plugging into a different port? I was having a similar issue with waking from sleep after being disconnected and reconnected. Then I realized I was plugging into a different port each time, and once I set the position for the displays for each port I never had that issue again.
They have two versions of that:

One where you can figure out exactly what you are getting if you want. It shows you enough detail about the "mystery hotel" (Example: Free Parking, Gym, At least 3 star, Rating of 8+ out of 10, at least 800 ratings) that quickly referring to the search results from the area makes it clear which is which. Love it and been using for years.

One where it's "One of these 3 specific hotels". I hate this one for the same reason as you because you're rolling the dice, the hotels can be very different and in different neighborhoods.
You're right and this has been glossed over by much of the commentary in this thread. If you read the ruling the judge repeatedly stated that Apple is entitled to compensation for its intellectual property, regardless of whether that is achieved through IAP or some other means:

> Under all models, Apple would be entitled to a commission or licensing fee, even if IAP was optional.

> Turning to the intellectual property justification, the Court agrees with the general proposition that Apple is entitled to be paid for its intellectual property.

> As established in the prior sections, see supra Facts §§ II.C., V.A.2.b., V.B.2.c., Apple is entitled to license its intellectual property for a fee, and to further guard against the uncompensated use of its intellectual property.

> The Court also notes that in the but-for world where developers could use an alternative processor, Apple would still be contractually entitled to its commission on any purchase made within apps distributed on the App Store.

In other words, even if developers are allowed to link to alternative payment processors inside their app, Apple may very well still be entitled to some sort of commission/licensing fee for the use of their IP.

Well what is the effect and purpose of the vax other than to make people lax about social distancing and masks. The vaccine was correctly developed expressly for the purposes of rendering both unnecessary.

If the vax had worked to sterilize or mostly sterilize the virus as originally it was sold to us as, then this would be okay.

Instead it did not really work, thus spreading covid more.

So in the end, we locked down and destroyed the economy in hopes of a vaccine, but the vaz didn't fully work and now we're going to have to open anyway to avert major economic and social disaster.

Not when HR has to tell an Executive how much money they saved by hiring contractors in order to justify their jobs. HR is one of the most despicable departments in every company.

Audio quality matters to me too, and of course the AirPods are quite a compromise. The speakers in them sound good enough, but I know the microphones are not great. Mind sharing some details of your audio setup?

I do like having wireless headphones of one sort or another, so I can walk around while staying in the conversation.

Also, over-the-ear or in-the-ear (the kind that go into your ear canal) headphones don't work for me. The only kind I'm really comfortable with are the kind that sit lightly in my outer ear, e.g. AirPods and not AirPods Pro.

But in any case, I'm eager to hear about your setup. And I'm probably not the only one who would welcome better quality audio. Thanks!
