"I think more people would bemoan the lack of after-work daylight during spring and summer than currently bemoan the switch" I think this argument would also apply nicely in challenge of our concept of a modern work week. '9-5' got a harsh reality check with COVID for a lot of people, so why don't we challenge it and not just shifting DST. (I acknowledge that this currently only applies to people who could work remotely.)
Since it applies to chat and messaging providers... does it mean I could self-host my emails and save them from Chatcontrol?

"Carbon emissions" is a collection of gasses, one of which is CO2. It's pretty common to equate the damage different gases do to CO2 and refer to it as "Carbon", which then get's messy when people paraphrase and leave out some context. For example Methane does something like 80x more damage than CO2 by weight, so it said a ton of Methane is "80 tons of carbon"

And Science doesn't work by "Absolutely 100% proving" anything. Bayesian statistics which underpins almost all of modern science lets us take highly educated guesses with communicable confidence in that guess. So stop looking for "100% absolute proof" to be convinced, you won't get it.
My entire "interview" at Netflix was me helping their top database people solve a severe performance problem in their operational systems. In the two hours I was there, I diagnosed the root cause and showed them how to fix it doing something they did not know was possible. Best and easiest job interview I've ever had.

They tested it after I left (a >100x improvement apparently) and called me the next day to ask when I could start.
This- Even if your work allows you to set your own schedule, there many other aspects of society that don't. Schools and daycares, in particular, can dictate the schedule of parents. If you can't start off to work because the bus/dropoff isn't till 830a it doesn't matter when your office lets you come in.

Even if there aren't external factors and there is theoretically flexibility around working hours cultural norms can make it difficult. My workgroup/division seems to have a strong norm about not scheduling meetings before 930a, but scheduling from 4-5p is normal.
As you said, it depends whether you stay in "standard time" or DST. In BC we're planning on permanently staying on PDT. I agree with what you said about permanent standard time. I actually had to look it up to make sure we're actually gonna stay on PDT. Phew.

> I don't know how it works in this part of the UK, but in many states in the US, the buyer would left holding the bag - the original homeowner would keep the property

Different ways of dealing with the problem of fraudulent transfer and property records. In the U.S., the risk is the buyer's. If the property was fraudulently transferred, the transaction is mutable. This makes the sureness of ownership, as well as the record, less reliable, while making ownership per se more.

The U.K. flips that assessment. If the Land Registry says you own the property, you can rest assured you own it. No re-litigating whether that transfer two sales back was done correctly. In exchange, this shit.

If you consider each country's history with respect to property and power, it makes sense.

I always assumed we'd keep the summer hours year round. I don't even think about DST during the summer, it's during the fall where we suddenly lose an hour of evening sunlight that I complain. Unless I'm misreading, your comment is just pointing out that keeping the winter hours year-round is sub-optimal (I agree) but not arguing in favour of switching the clocks twice per year.
I live on the eastern edge of ET. My in-laws live on the western edge of it (their solar noon is about 49 minutes later than mine).

I prefer the DST shifted time, which is partly because I’m on the edge of the timezone that benefits most from that.

I wonder how many people who have strong feelings one way or the other have them in part because of their longitudinal position in the timezone.
How would you redraw timezones that factor those winters in properly?
I would be ok with getting rid of DST entirely, but I will say I got a lot less vocal about it once I got a smartwatch (initially a Pebble, now an Apple Watch), simply because it automatically adjusts the time for me.

I'm someone who is wholly dependent on a wristwatch for nearly every aspect of my life. When I would forget to preemptively set my watch backward or forwards, I would be late for everything for a day, and it would lead to most of aspects of my life being worse.

Now that my watch is automatically set for me by the phone towers, and my alarms are also automatically updated, DST has shifted from "ruining my day" to "mild annoyance".

This was a poll with extensive media coverage, and it was clear that the EU would use it to base a decision on. Polls were open for over 1 month.

Clearly if less than 1% of the population would participate in a presidential election that would be evidence that the population just did not care about the outcome?
the commission wouldn't have proposed it if they didn't think they would be able to push through the vast majority of it

and if they don't get it through this parliament they'll wait until the next one, and so on

and once it's passed: the parliament has no ability to alter or undo it

This article has a bit more detail and describes the health issues these birds experienced

https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2021/10/californ...

"both of the condors did have some documented health issues. SB260, a male hatched at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in 2001, died two years later after being released into the wild—he was always small and did not integrate well with the wild birds. SB517, a male hatched at Los Angeles Zoo in 2009, had a curved spine and trouble walking. He was never released into the wild and died in captivity at about age eight."

Getting rid of DST doesn't have to mean to stay on standard time permanently. BC for instance chooses to stay on DST. Some day. Hopefully. At least the legislation is already there.

This article [0] states the contrary: the recording _can_ be used as evidence in a criminal trial, but it seems the actual act of recording it is still criminal as a separate matter.

> Posted: Dec 5, 2019 / 05:44 PM PST / Updated: Dec 5, 2019 / 05:44 PM PST
Secretly recording someone else’s conversation is illegal in California, but prosecutors can use the illicit recording as evidence in a criminal case, the state Supreme Court ruled Thursday.

> In their unanimous ruling, the justices cited a 1982 ballot measure passed by voters that allows all “relevant evidence” to be introduced in any criminal trial or pretrial hearing, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

> The case at hand concerned a private phone call about the actions of an alleged child molester. While the conversation was confidential under state law, its contents were clearly relevant and were properly disclosed to the jury in the molesting case, the court said.

> The ruling follows a line of cases that narrowed criminal defendants’ rights after the 1982 ballot measure, which sponsors dubbed the Victims’ Bill of Rights, the Chronicle said. The measure included provisions that increased sentences, narrowed the insanity defense, allowed victims to testify at parole and sentencing hearings and let prosecutors introduce evidence that had been obtained in violation of state law.

> The court also rejected defense arguments that admission of secretly recorded evidence would violate the right to privacy in the California Constitution. Those who are harmed by the recordings can still sue for damages, the eavesdroppers can be prosecuted, and the evidence remains inadmissible in non-criminal cases, Cantil-Sakauye said.

Fuckups? I often say that this is the one good thing Bush the Younger got done lol. The less standard time the better as far as I'm concerned (I live in NY where 4pm sunsets in the winter are a huge bummer).
At least where I live (NE USA), February thru April is when we get our winter weather season. January is usually the coldest month, but we don’t get a lot of ice or snow until later in the season. Almost like clockwork we get hit by a big snowstorm the second week in April.
Possible Cyberattack on Newfoundland Healthcare System
The issue is important and needs to be discussed (both sides - which doesn't mean solving it at the 'chat level' is the right answer, of course). And I'm glad the Pirates "get" the internet. But the fud is getting old

Realistically, targeted chat grooming on a major platform does end with responsibility over the platform. If the system is BS then it should be trivial to get the chat of any of the politicians involved in approving this. But from the past proposals, it doesn't look like that is "too trivial".

While technical folks think the tech world is untouchable by laws the legislative folks think everything is "perfectly" amenable to legislation and of course they're both wrong and the truth lies somewhere in the middle.

The most likely end result is that messaging for minors might have the monitoring (but remember Google, FB, etc already do this in a way). And of course even if it passes this is amenable to ECJ appeals, etc.

The employers are always evil, aren't they?

Back in 2008 I hired a sales guy who ended-up being terrible at his job. He just could not sell. He came in promising performance and, 90 days later, sold nothing, hot even enough to cover his high six figure salary. He cost me tens of thousands of dollars, not to mention the time and money spent bringing him up to speed. Even worse, the opportunity cost was massive. A different sales guy could have done a lot better.

His son had brain cancer.

I kept him on the payroll for another six months because the kid had to have surgery and the medical insurance thing was going to be a mess. During this time he sold exactly nothing. Zero.

This happened during the 2008 economic implosion. Our business was not doing well at all because the industry we were in collapsed. And yet I knew that, if I let him go, he would face a pretty horrific reality when it came to his son's medical needs.

I had to take out a second mortgage to make payroll and even use credit cards. I kept him and others on until the last possible moment, all along telling him to go find another job (which he did). I almost lost my home and everything I worked so hard to build over decades because of what happened in 2008. I would have come out way ahead and without a worry in the world had I let most everyone go and acted with my self interest as the top priority. In fact, I would have come out with a couple millions dollars in the bank rather than almost losing everything.

> You might want to reconsider this attitude

Sure. Brilliant. Walk in my shoes for a few decades and you might actually start to get a clue. Maybe.

It's always one sided, isn't it? It's always the employer who is evil, greedy, an asshole. It's never a bad employee, or a bad fit? Is it?

Going back to the original post:

> none of these were offered to me

Because they did not want you to stay.

> I was open to being convinced to stay but there was never a serious attempt

Because they really wanted you to go away.

> during my exit lamented how hard it is to hire people right now

...as they waited for you to sign the exit paperwork and get rid of you.

The fact that the "private company that had a market cap in the billions of dollars" did not move a finger to keep this guy says a LOT. Either the company did not want him around or his team was not interested in keeping him. In other words, everyone was happy to see him go, even when they knew it might take some time to find a replacement.

It could be other things. Maybe the project was dead or dying and having team members leave on their own accord was seen as a good thing.

There are a million different variables and possibilities, yet, the only culturally acceptable thing to say is that the employer was evil in some way. And suggesting that perhaps the employee was the problem leads to "You might want to reconsider this attitude", because employees are never the problem, at all, ever.

Please.

Take a look at how chickens/farmed animals in general are housed before before being "processed". Turns out it's cheaper to pump the animals full of antibiotics and wash the resulting meat with chemicals afterwards than to house them in clean and sanitary conditions. The EU/UK at least recognize how terrible this is, so they don't allow US meat that is handled this way.
