Just because you don’t see it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.

I have a relative who processes digital intakes for a CA ACLU chapter, and they get a huge number of interview-related complaints, which get referred directly to legal assistance who are interested in such cases.

My opinion is we likely don’t hear about it because each case is small, and companies have no incentive to publicize settlements.
Funding and educational attention are bumpy metrics. Putting Mississippi and Massachusetts in the same bucket doesn’t lend itself to fair comparisons.
Yes. Power supplies up to 60VDC are typically designed to fall under SELV and are considered intrinsically safe. SELV requires isolation and a single fault tolerant design. Here is some additional info:

https://www.edn.com/what-does-selv-mean-for-power-supplies/

I doubt the USB-C power negotiation feature is specifically a safety function, but as other comments have pointed out it makes the system even safer.

I haven’t looked at the spec, but I wonder if there is any functionality that prevents a power supply from applying 48V all the time. i.e. is it possible to deliver a functional charger that is not SELV and has no power negotiation?

I don't need cables or chargers to be less confusing. I need the damn ports on devices to be less confusing. One of my family's phones supports Dash charging and DisplayLink but not usb-3 speeds or charging while outputting video. One of our phones supports HDMI out while charging but only supports QuickCharge v2. One of my tablets will charge over its type-c port but only at 400mA, and you're supposed to use a different port for full speed charging. Then there's my Nintendo Switch that violates so many parts of the USB spec some of my OEM phone chargers won't charge it at all.
True, but the posed question was "how much information can a small image contain", not "how many unique images are there"
Blank is fine.

I don’t think anything really changed there — those of us who think their opinions are worth other people hearing about (and I’m generally in that camp) have been around since time immemorial, and I doubt we’re growing as a percentage.

It’s just that social media has provided us a big new platform, much more visible than Usenet or whatever. I think generally companies don’t care what you write online as long as it won’t come back to bite the company.
50%+, assuming.
We need enough reserve firefighting capacity to respond to infrequent major fires. But when they're not fighting fires or training then they might as well respond to other emergencies.
Shareholders can take out a loan for spending money that uses the shares as collateral.
Firefighters are a profession that is almost purely a good for society. I wouldn't support a reduction in firefighters until every single other member of the government was gone. In the post apocalypse I hope it is firefighters who are running the provisional government.

Honestly apple does not need those specific logos. They just need to label their cables in the first place. They could use their own trademark(s). They are big enough that tons of people trust them and will take an apple with 100W and 40G written on it at face value. Then tons of people who don't trust Apple will scrutinize their offerings heavily.
Please, for the love of god, make it obvious if a USB C cable can be used as a display cable or not. One thing that absolutely blows about USB C is that they all look the same, but to connect my LG UltraFine to my GTX 2070 I had to do literally hours of research before I could find a reliable cable on Amazon that was a “bidirectional USB C DisplayPort” cable because I naively assumed that USB C was a general purpose cable type that could do data/display/power/etc. Having one plug be capable (or incapable) of doing so many things melted my brain.

Why can’t all USB C cables just do all the things? To me, the fact that I can plug a cable into my graphics card… and it fits… and then it does nothing… that’s awful physical UX.
I suspect firefighters are being called because firefighters tend to also be EMTs. I can understand how the practice caught on, but it does seem inappropriate.
I used to volunteer with an organization that pairs people with lonely “elders”... kind of like a Big Brother/Big Sister program. The woman I was paired with was in her early 60s and went to the doctor constantly but there really wasn’t anything wrong with her. It took me a long time to realize she would go to all these appointments to give her something to do, some people to talk to, and sometimes as an excuse to get her (out of state) kids to talk to her on the phone a bit.

I’ll never forget when I was visiting her and realized she was looking forward to an entire day of medical testing appointments. At fist I thought maybe she had Munchausen’s (and maybe, in a way she did) but mostly I think she was just lonely.
Have a reserve, like the military?
Changing the goal posts. The claim was that the trump campaign directly participated in Russian efforts to interfere with the election, including direct collusion. This is a false claim despite the media spending years on it and Pulitzer prizes being awarded.

The claims were made without evidence. The origins of the claim ... The Steele dossier... Is itself fake.

I will cite the new York times.

I did read it. The law says she is allowed to share documents with the SEC. I don't know if she is allowed to go beyond that, such as doing this interview. And I certainly don't know all the requirements for it falling under that law.

wild tangent, focusing on the stated example, not the filter implementation:

> Suppose that you are given a database of users where only a small percentage are ‘paying customers’ (say 5% or less). You can write an SQL query to check whether a given user is indeed a paying customer, but it might require a round trip to your database engine. Instead, you would like to hold a small ‘filter’ in memory to quickly check whether the given user is a paying customer.

another way to avoid needing to solve this example filtering problem is to store the data in the database in a way that doesn't require any filtering. e.g. if it is often useful to distinguish paying customers from other kinds of users (sounds plausible), maybe paying customers could be segregated into their own separate table from non-paying users. then there's no need to filter.

this is a rule of thumb that is written about a bit in 'data-oriented design'. instead of operating on collections of heterogeneous entities that are obfuscated behind some facade of commonality, figure out which are the most frequent types of entities and put them in their own collections, where they can be computed upon in homogeneous batches -- with better performance.

The WHO recommends using 3x GDP/capita for each QALY, which would set America's threshold somewhere around $150k, not the $500k in your example.

Exactly, it is naive to separate FB and Zuckerberg. FB is morally corrupt because of Zuckerberg.

In fact it is quiet telling that none of the FB cofounders were there long enough, probably because they saw who he is early on.

There are probably well-run exceptions but in my experience senior communities are mostly about extracting all the wealth and insurance payments they can get from their residents before they die.

You think it's hard taking care of your aging parents? They took care of you when you were a helpless, shitting, crying, little ball of flesh.
I think the root cause is that you lump fire and EMS into the same basket. You don’t need six qualified firefighters on a half million dollar pumper to attend a nanna down call.

Here in Australia the ambulance service is totally separate to the fire services. The public calls the same number (000) but after that it’s separate dispatch centres, different staff, different depots.

From the fire side we occasionally get called to assist the ambulance service with carrying out people who are injured somewhere way off down a bushwalking or mountain biking track. We’ll very rarely get called to a lift assist for someone that’s fallen in an aged care facility.

The ambulance service in NSW has a whole set of problems around capacity and poor working conditions for staff, of course, but that’s another story.

> There is nothing to fix.

Sure there is: advertising. It's the root cause of nearly all evils in the internet today. Facebook itself is merely a symptom of the advertiser problem. The web and the internet will never be fixed until we get rid of the advertisers. Either we ban advertising or we spread ad blocking technology far and wide.

100% true. We can hate on FB/Insta as much we want. But the underlying problem is the users who create “toxic” content and the public who are intentionally spending significant amounts of time on these non-life-crucial platforms.

If "usually" PRs result in code style or architecture discussions, I'd suggest you have a team problem, not a process one. Start with the humans.

I also object to spotting bugs as an example of misuse. I regularly point out possible bugs in PRs - even ones with unit tests. It often turns out to not be a bug, but does result in new test cases or a comment added.

Not mentioned is one of the other big benefits of PRs (which applies no matter if you pair or are a solo project): it enforces some good discipline.

If your PR description involves several unrelated things, it's too big and should be done in smaller chunks. I find it gives me a really good chance to scrutinize my own code: things like finding TODOs I missed, bad variable names (which maybe made sense in the first iteration but not in the final state), or bits that need some extra documentation.

I don't pair a lot, but when we do (on my current team), we still use PRs, with both as reviewers, as well as getting someone else to come in. The 3rd person is always going to be better at spotting unclear code then the people who've been neck deep in it for a day or 5.

Indeed. And when it comes to something invisible like software, a company doesn't really need to implement real privacy in order to uphold a "privacy" moniker.

It's a similar story with "security", as Zoom demonstrated somewhat recently.

99% of users have no way to actually check a smartphone to see "how private" it is, or "how secure" it is. And I imagine another large portion of users doesn't read tech news, and so they won't see these kinds of articles. So all Apple needs to do is put on a show about privacy, since that's what users actually see.
Kudos; this is likely a very useful tool!

So useful (and potentially lucrative) that AWS/GCP would likely take over this functionality eventually -- either by building on top of spot instances like you have, or underneath regular instances or re-use that capacity for some other managed service (thereby reducing the price differential). How do you plan to protect yourselves against that?
There's an Spanish Twitter user, who mostly writes against, gender equality regulations in Spain and violence against women, by men.

I'm yet to see a rude or unpolite message by him. He's composed, respectful and logical and exposes his reasoning calmly.

But, as he is vocal against the goverment (no matter the party in charge, is the same) and mainstream media, he's been suspended by Twitter several times.

It's puzzling to me he's been categorized the same as real misfits, trolls and so.

But seems like speaking against the majority has costs, no matter the epoch you live in.
To pay back the loan they need to sell the stock which is a capital gains event.

The US and other world governments have still not recognized whatever "antifa" means to you as any form of organized domestic group.

That probably depends a lot on the state of the grandma. Spry and lively full of great conversation and wonderful tales of old times? Yes! Barely able to remember her own name from dementia or in constant terrible pain from her life of labor on the farm finally catching up to her? Eh …

The latter is especially difficult. I have a grandma in the family (not mine) who really just wants to die. Can’t even get out of bed anymore, can barely eat, constant pain that even painkillers can’t fix anymore … but her family can’t let her go because “1 more year with grandma”. Kinda selfish really
An issue with a Rust-like ? operator is that it is sanctifying the "result, error" return values. It's entirely possible to return three or four values from a Go method (if not common).

With generics Go is opening up the possibility of honest sum types. But, to be honest, I'm one of those people who are not upset by Go's error verbosity. The error shortcuts in Rust confuse me more often than not.
