Last time I worked I the banking sector, the requirement was not a month, but just a week. It just had to be a contiguous week and not stacked on a banking holiday, or if it was you just needed an extra day. For example if this was going to me my week. I’d have to take Monday off since Thursday is a holiday.
And that’s a disaster too.

>> Unlike private actors, governmental actors are publicly constrained in their actions and representatives of the will of our society.

Are you aware of the term 'unelected bureaucrat', and do you know how many of them exist? They are accountable to no one. They continually prove to be significant problems.
I don’t know anything about the other person’s emotions. I know that you are reading emotion into their comments.

It’s my observation that people make comments that ‘don’t make sense in the way that I understand the space’ very frequently, and while it’s certainly an indication that we don’t understand each other, and may be an indication that someone is mistaken, it is not obviously indicative of emotion, and in any case the presence of emotion isn’t obviously indicative of incorrectness or irrationality.

Regardless of the correctness of your diagnosis (which you now will never be certain of) the move is a conversational gambit that isn’t likely to lead to anything constructive.
Of course they are, who would want to be the public face of a company in a country where anyone who outshines Xi is an enemy or where you have to submit to the CCP every move you make once you get successful enough.
The industry seems fairly unsophisticated so far. Our local agents are determined to attach cyber/data riders on the coverage a building owner has for an entire building. When I point out that building owners DGAF about tenants' data and how well tenants protect that data, they have no idea what I'm talking about. They seem very far from designating e.g. sufficient backup procedures.
I think they know there is more chances you come back to you.com if you are reminded by the extension icon.
This article brought back memories. When discussing disaster recovery with developers, they said we would just rebuild the application server from source control. I then asked what if you installed a malicious program that deleted all of our data? They said that's the DBAs problem. The DBAs said (at the time) we have so much data our "backup" consisted of swapping out our EMC SANs. So if we lost of our data, the other SAN contained last week's data. At the time, there was not realistic backup other than manually syncing the SANs and trucking the copy to a safe location. Today, now with DevOps, recovering lost data is also the developer's problem.
How much do you think this has to do with the government trying extra hard now to tax crypto?
> At the top we have a crown, who's crown, the (imported) House of Windsor? I don't know?

It's not a crown but a coronet. Coronet are a heraldic device to symbolise noble ranks, including those of the royal family. In British usage a coronet of crosses and fleur-de-lis symbolises a child of the sovereign.

One could quibble about another detail: traditionally Charles’ coronet as heir apparent is displayed with a single arch. Crowns have two or more arches. That single arch is almost not there apart from the green arch formed by those interlocking circles of the seal.

Btw: It’s seems a bit silly to call the House of Windsor or Saxe-Coburg and Gotha “imported”. Queen Victoria of Hanover married, her son and heir took the “house” from his father, that’s pretty much it. What’s far more annoying was the patriarchal habit that “houses” go with the father’s line, at least until EIIR and Philipp.

Btw 2: Isn’t every British and English royal house “imported”?

Hanover was imported from Germany, based on distant descent from James’ VI/I second child and of course protestantism.

Stuart was imported, based on distant descent.

Tudor … imported and invented themselves, based on distant descent.

Plantagenet was Angevin, meaning from Anjou in France, because Geoffrey of Anjou married Matilda.

Normandy imported themselves, because of distant descend from Wessex.

Denmark is Denmark.

Wessex is homegrown, apart from the whole “sex” part.
One of the reasons I bought a Quest 1 was because it has apps that can connect to my Plex server and play 3D movies. It's neat, and nicely replicates the 3D theater experience including barely being able to see clearly through the grubby lenses. I only have a few 3D movies and don't bother watching them anymore.

I do still watch lots of 2D content using the Quest, though. I like the immersive feel of watching movies and TV on theater-sized screens with none of the visual distractions in my living room.

Data point: I'm definitely not asexual, but I do experience romantic feelings and sexual feelings separately: I feel one, the other, or both towards various people. (A situation that satisfies one drive is likely to inflame the other, but initially they are often distinct.)

Just because people have questioned the word "love" and stuff: when I say "romantic feelings" above, I mean this type of thing: "I find myself idly thinking about her, and that this tends to make me blush; when near her, or imagining it, I'm hyper-focused on her presence (primarily her face), such that if she moves slightly closer, it's as if I feel it on my cheek; my desires are to look at her, smile at her, tell her about my feelings, and touch her affectionately." Upon touching her (or imagining doing so), I would tend to notice her body and, as I say, that is likely to inflame sexual desire; but often not before then.

I've asked around. I've met some guys who said they were similarly separate drives, and others who said they always coincided. I think girls tended to say they were separate as well. I don't have too many or too certain data points, though.

This is a bizarre interpretation. Where exactly do you see that I guilt people? This isn't some "test", and the fact that you see it that way is somewhat baffling to me. It's a personal choice made based on personal preference. I don't like social media, so I won't use it.

I provide people who I want to be in contact with the means to do so easily. Be that over email, phone, text message, or even physical meetups. If sending me a text, or sending me an email, is too high of a barrier for communication for someone, that's not my problem and likely indicates that the friendship was not particularly valuable in the first place. That's not a "test", that's simply how things are.

If I don't want you to be able to contact me, you won't be able to. I'm not obligated to make myself available to anyone who may wish to contact me. I'm not sure why this needs to be explained.

I ask, honestly, if anyone else one here is seeing a large influx of intentionally skewing of what the US does and makes it comparable to some terrible policy that China does. It really feels like there are a lot of people with strong Chinese interests mudding the waters of debate by equating the US with China. Feels very much like the Russian disinformation campaigns as Trump as elected except smarter and Chinese oriented.

Just as a small reminder what universities are all about: The dominant reason for the foundation of the Sorbonne was a surge in heresies. The principal idea was to prepare for the next heresy and being able to respond quickly to challenges yet unknown. The university is essentially about a wager on the future, not about mastering the present.

Which brings us to what a university should be about:

* Understanding principles

* Being able to draw connections from principles to novel ends

* Being able to argue your point

* Being able to discern, whether a point is argued properly or not (according to these rules and the rules of the particular discipline/field)

* Knowing about the current state of the art/ideas and their relation to principles

Nothing of this includes a use case for spyware like this. It actually indicates that the institution does not manage at least one of those aforementioned goals. And it it's an indication for that institution rather answering to those challenges by a strict regime of established procedures, which is exactly what a university is all not about.
It seems apparent that the US government is pursuing a novel strategy to route around the Bill of Rights:

Steps:

* Allow (and encourage) private sector monopolies to form

* Use its leverage and influence to "encourage" those monopolies to do things which the US government is not allowed to do (examples: censorship, data collection)

The list of First Amendment precedents, for example, with respect to the government is long and detailed. On the other hand, private companies operate under fewer restrictions and can act much more freely.

So if we have a situation where there are a small number of monopolies and they, through personal relationships (marriage), lobbying, and the revolving door have a cozy relationship with the US government, then the government can effectively censor (for example) by more or less declaring "will no one rid me of these turbulent tweets" and have the monopolies jump to comply (or face increased risk of antitrust action for example).

This is a win-win for both: the monopolies avoid antitrust and other unwanted regulation by playing ball, and the government gets to ignore the Bill of Rights by "outsourcing" actions to what are in effect de facto quasi-governmental entities. It's only a loss for the people for whom the Bill of Rights was written to protect.

>I have since moved to the Bay Area and am working for an Eastern European country while earning a Bay Area rate.

If I understood it correctly, you physically live in Bay Area while working remotely for a company located in Eastern Europe, and you are earning Bay Area rates? This seems like the complete inverse of the situation I usually hear of (working for a Bay Area company remotely in a cheaper area and earning Bay Area rates).

Out of pure curiosity, do you mind sharing the name of that Eastern European company? Totally understandable if you aren't willing to do so, but I have a feeling that there is probably literally 1 or 2 companies tops that would be willing to do that, so it isn't really an option for almost anyone. The first two that popped into my mind were Yandex and, to a much lesser degree, VK.
Beyond what others have mentioned about requiring the Chrome extension, I would strongly recommend altering the language in FAQ - "How do I make You.com my default search engine?"

It vaguely references "the monopoly" in ominous tones. This comes across as petulant and distracting. Just focus on the instructions to set it as the default and how to respond to questions that try to change it back.

The argument isn’t about using AWS to run a VM (which can be cheaper that coloing your own kit, depending how many you want and for how long), it’s all the extra stuff. Start an aws load balancer rather than run and maintain your own for example.

It doesn't take a PhD to know this conclusion is total bullshit. I know long covid sufferers personally--one, a former marathon runner, has spent months unable to go up a single flight of stairs without crushing fatigue. I don't doubt that there is a psychological component to long-covid, but to suggest the entire ailment is some cousin of anxiety is dismissive, insulting, and most importantly, plain wrong.

There's a large contingent of HN readers that seem to think long covid doesn't exist because it hasn't been firmly confirmed by a study. To be more accurate, they would prefer it didn't exist because its existence would justify some of the stricter covid restrictions. I imagine these are the same people that would let their Tesla drive them into a wall because the camera didn't see it there. Not proven to exist != proven not to exist. If it hasn't been proven to exist, then we'll need to do better science until we find it, because it definitely exists without any measure of doubt.

And by the way, this is the exact same nonsense that has quagmired ME/CFS research for decades. The government requires that diseases have a biomarker in order to claim disability--the lack of a biomarker for this illness doesn't meant that it doesn't exist, but it has meant that research on it has been tragically and dramatically underfunded and sufferers struggle to claim disability benefits.

> The performance benefits are really achieved by incrementally changing your Python code to something that looks a lot more like C(++)

I completely agree. Cython can become quite attractive if your alternative is "write a python extension library by hand in C / C++". I first started using Cython after doing exactly that, writing my extension library in C, then realising that Cython might save a lot of work in generating the bindings and packaging/distribution -- it did, and it ran at exactly the same speed as my pure C library with hand crafted python bindings. After that I've been pretty excited about Cython.

If you've got a python program that needs to do a core of compute-heavy work, if you were to optimise this by writing a C / C++ library for python to use, the work would be: (i) think hard about how the library design will enable performance, (ii) implement that high performance library in C / C++ , (iii) figure out the interface so that python can call into the library, and (iv) figure out how to package and distribute the library so it can be used by python programs.

Cython doesn't really help with parts (i) designing for performance or (ii) writing that high performance code. But it helps a lot with parts (iii) and (iv), generating Python bindings and producing wheel archives that can be managed by existing python package management tooling.
Thanks for pointing this out. I didn't realize this until I read further into this thread and started looking at optimized cython projects. Now I understand what you're talking about.
