I've always been annoyed by markdown for one reason: [Link text](link.url) is backwards.

URLs, particularly Wikipedia links, are so much more likely to have parens in them than they are to have square brackets. And users can choose link text much more easily than they can choose a URL. (Link text)[link.url] would have been much much better.

We got a few packages ($10-$50 each in value) delivered to us over the span of a couple of months. Not ordered by us.

Addresses were mailed out to:
Jane Smith (my fiance)
1234 Our Apartment St, but lacking an apt#, yet they were still delivered to us at the front desk.

I check my credit card statements later and start seeing some unauthorized charges from Amazon. My card was not linked to my fiance's account. No idea what really happened here so I had to call the CC company to alert of fraud and cancel my card.
I'm a bit late, but you're so wrong on so many levels i can't let this slide.

First, the numbers are indeed atrocious. But they're the result of massive civil unrest which included mass civil disobedience, occasional looting and burning private property, and fighting with police ( so it wasn't just the police randomly shooting at people) which went on for months, which explains some of it.

Second, the numbers are for the police and gendermerie violence, (the latter helped because the civil unrest was massive, at the start it was mostly police). You can't just pin them all on the gendermerie because you have a preconceived notion they're the problem.

> Au contraire, I don't remember the American police beating up the elderly and disabled - or creating disabled people - en masse, in such a short space of time. Maybe you do, but it wouldn't make the comparison ludicrous

The model is different, and so are the consequences, which I wasn't talking about. US police are barely trained, suffer no consequences, and have military grade equipment. None of that applies even to the "militarised" (for you) gendermerie.

In France there was unrest, people destroying property and fighting police occasionally as a part of it. Police responded hard after initially doing nothing. Again, it was initially police, and then the gendermerie was also sent to help. Violence was done by both of them.
Such a cultural touchstone, and so utterly lost, I suspect, on today's yutes.

People get super upset when you say this, but like much of Panic's other hardware (like their Mini-ITX case) you're also paying for the mythos.

Like I said from the get-go that most of these will be used as desk ornaments (albeit pretty and functional ones)

Not long after Panic announced a dock with a pen holder.

They know their market, people with a lot of disposable income and a want to a showpiece that's not as flashy as gold pen or something

I'd argue there's a massive incentive to do this if you can because then every other company in the world can downsize their engineering staff and take advantage of the no code solution that you're selling. Even if you sell at an absurd price like $1M/year but it allows a company to replace 10 programmer, it'd probably be worth it.

I haven't read the book but I assume here Rousseau is serving as an emblem for the Enlightenment (or an aspect of it at least), which is generally regarded as uhh kind of a big deal. That there were earlier Europeans here and there who discussed some of the same concepts is of little significance.

This is mostly an artifact of the two party system (or the left/right divide, which changed throughout history), in fact there are 3 independent ideologies: Conservative (concerned with values of authority and cultural preservation), liberal (concerned with values of individual freedom) and progressive/socialist (concerned with values of equality/inclusion and democracy).

These ideologies are not opposites, they have different concerns, but they might contradict in practice. Sometimes they are also compatible, they accept same tools for different reasons. (For example, property ownership is a policy tool acccepted by liberals for reason of personal freedom, and by conservatives for reason of preserving value. Or basic income is accepted by progressives as means of including everybody in the society, and by liberals as way to promote personal freedom.)

There's lot more to this but that's the gist of political philosophy, I think.

Why would they accept a backslash? Backslash is a path separator on Windows. In most Windows programs, you don't even need to escape the space - arguments can contain spaces and it will understand it, like `notepad My file.txt`

The escape character on PowerShell is backtick, and on cmd it is caret. You don't need to quote everything.
Erm, these areas have internet and go to school like anyone else. They're plenty exposed.

What does "instill false consciousness" mean to you? When I try to parse this sentence I get "make people incorrectly believe" maybe? I'm not clear on your meaning.

All in all, if I'm reading you correctly, you're saying that people are being tricked by a political party, yes? That being the case, it's definitely possible that you're right. I would suggest, however, that it appears much more likely that both major parties are playing that game.

I mean, I watched the last American president endure four years of accusations from his political rivals that he would start wars, persue extremist agendas, and be the destruction of his country. We were told that if he wasn't stopped, everything would go to hell in a handbasket. So he was stopped. Afterward, their candidate for presidency appears to be ushering his country to hell in a handbasket.

Seems like everyone is playing fast and loose with the truth anymore. I believe that's a pretty typical politician game.
Most if the investment in trains is the terrain under the rails, which is already made. Converting all existing routes to high speed is a no brainer, which will be delayed beyond all reasonable duration just because they're all government organizations. Probably much longer than it'll take us to have driverless medium-distance ubers.

I compared trains to airplanes recently - from Vienna to Swizerland by train because a plane was a bit too expensive. I like trains, but it was not a pleasant experience:

- boarding was about as fussy as with airports, maybe a bit more so since I had to stow my own luggage.

- I had to change trains 3 times, moving a 20 kg luggage and a 10 kg backpack with often as little as 8 minute leeway in an unknown train station

- did not have significantly more room, surprising enough. A seat is a seat, and you can go to the bathroom just as easily in a plane

- did I mention it took 8 hours?

I don't think cars will be a contender for the long range, not soon. You're right with rolling distance, and also air drag. They don't go well over 100-150 mph. But if their range increases enough, they might just squeeze trains out of their niche.

Trains lose hard to ubers on short trips, and to planes on longer ones. They're already subsidized by the government. With any less passengers, and a strong need of upgrading to very high speed, it may start to make sense to drop a lot of them and focus on the rest.

That one is easy! Stress/anxiety is a condition that makes all kinds of learning significantly more difficult.

A small amount of urgency can be helpful, but ideally it should be intrinsic (i.e. someone screaming at you or giving you letter grades is nowhere near as motivating as feeling that you can almost do it) and it's very easy to overshoot.
Clay Bavor (the VP mentioned in the article) has made fairly strategic missteps at Google. Project Tango was developed under him (AR sensors on a phone), which got canned. Google then scrambled to play catch up after iPhone announced their structured light AR sensors and ARKit. Daydream VR was supposed to compete against Oculus, but shut down before their technology (imo better than Oculus) made it into production to focus on ARCore. Best of luck to him, hope he's learned from his mistakes.
We have a Toshiba CNC machine at our shop that enters paths like this on the controller, always wondered why; now I know.
The Tao gave birth to machine language. Machine language gave birth to the assembler.

The assembler gave birth to the compiler. Now there are ten thousand languages.

Each language has its purpose, however humble. Each language expresses the Yin and Yang of software. Each language has its place within the Tao.

But do not program in COBOL if you can avoid it.

And even then, home prices in the peripheral areas of the Central Valley that are within a 2-3 hour drive of the Bay Area have skyrocketed in price during the pandemic. For example, when the pandemic started I remember seeing large signs off Highway 152 through Los Baños for brand new single-family houses in the high $200,000s. Fast forward to today, and new development in Los Baños now starts in the mid-$400,000s, a dramatic leap in price. Tracy and Mountain House have also risen in price substantially, and I've seen places go from the mid-$400K range to the mid-$500K range in Lathrop and Manteca.

There's also been considerable price increases in the Fresno area, too (though it's still possible to purchase brand new homes there under $400K), which is outside the normal Bay Area commute orbit, though now with WFH, an occasional trip from Fresno to Silicon Valley or San Jose isn't that bad. The only places I haven't seen dramatic appreciation in house prices are smaller, more isolated metro areas that haven't attracted those leaving the Bay Area or Los Angeles, such as Hanford and Visalia.

Coming from a guy who grew up in Sacramento, yes the Central Valley is hot, but the best part about the Central Valley is its relative affordability and its proximity to many interesting places. Portions are close enough to the Bay Area to commute (though I wouldn't do it every day), and while it's farther away from the beach than the Bay Area, it's closer to the Sierra Nevada mountains, and SoCal is still within weekend-trip range. Living in the Central Valley allows people to take advantage of California amenities without having to get on a plane or take a very long road trip (though, admittedly, Reno and Las Vegas are also close enough to many of these same California amenities, sometimes even closer depending on your destination).

EDIT: There are some other cheap parts of California. Many of the desert areas of the state are affordable. Lake County, north of Napa, is quite cheap.

I am a fan of aws but it is all too easy to mount up large bills. I began using accelerated compute instances but as a newbie it was hard for me to get a feel of the performance, how large and a dataset could we run before it fell over or over heated. If we were spending other people's money I would have gone all in on aws GPS-enabled instances, as a boot strapped firm doing some experiments in the ML space it was more cost effective to buy a small server and get a feel for the performance envelope. We just doubled our hardware spec for another on-prem computer. The best thing is, amazon could not offer better value.
it’s the Frank Lloyd Wright curse: his houses are beautiful but maintenance nightmares - the first time you build a new design, it’s going to leak. as soon as you get creative, you’ll get seams that settle and crack in unpredictable ways.

cubes are not the strongest form (rhombic dodecahedrons are better) but it’s not the weakest form either, you start playing with acute and obtuse angles you might come up with something fragile. best to stick with right angles.

I turn my nose up at rectangular buildings as much as the next guy (my house, at least, is an octagon) but we’ve become very skilled at building rectangles that don’t leak / collapse.
Sadly the Prague pneumatic post system was damaged by the 2002 floods and hasn't been repaired since. Otherwise there's a chance that it still would have been operating on a city scale. That one could send money between banks.
Same here.

It seems like the issue isn't technical -- but more managerial and lack of putting in the necessary time to see the product go from Lab -> Maturity.

Hopefully this changes soon.
And also it's harder to dig because of environmental and archeological concerns. I know. It's a problem.
Wikipedia is also a propaganda tool. Are [9][9][12][13][14] written based on historical documents? On the documents from the Soviet/Russia archives? I seriously doubt so. Pretty sure, they contain same bullshit as Solzhenitsyn books: "I saw 2 millions prisoners walking to the camp and it was only one of Stalin's forced labor camps"...
Still way too expensive for individuals and startups imo. These A10 cards are just slightly slower than RTX3090, which makes it an easy comparison. $1/hour for the cheapest option means renting for 62 days is equivalent to buying outright (add a few weeks to account for the price of the other computer components)

A big part of the difference is in Nvidia's datacenter tax (The A10 is basically a 3090, just double the price). Hopefully AMD's new accelerators will bring some much needed competition to the market.
I've bought stacks of laptops from them during the pandemic when some things were difficult to buy. $15k worth of laptops left on the stoop. This happened multiple times.
It really depends on the airline, but it's fairly common to put newer aircraft with WiFi on more business-heavy routes, and put the older aircraft on more tourist-heavy routes where passengers are more cost conscious and probably won't pay for the WiFi or other amenities either.
> but something is amiss when housing in a metro area is so expensive that people making middle class salaries (we're talking around $60K-$100K) find themselves "driving until they qualify" 60+ miles away to places like Tracy, Manteca, and Los Baños to find an affordable place to life.

Why is it Ok to live in Palo Alto, but it’s wrong to live in Manteca ?

People are making a choice that best fits their needs, and they choose affordable housing over commute distance

California is expensive because everyone wants to live there - you can’t make that affordable.

How many condos do you have to build in the bay area to make it cheaper than Tracy ?
Nice descriptions, but some of them need changes to match the command. For example:

sed '1~2p' file.txt #needs -n option

s '1,$ s/foo/bar/' file.txt #s --> sed and 1,$ --> 5,$

Many commands using `-r` do not need the option for the command used (for ex: `sed -r '/start/q'`). Also, using `-E` is preferred instead of `-r` since some of the other implementations support this option but not `-r`.

To answer the question in the headline (which is completely different from the question in the body text) It keeps them out of trouble with the IRS.

They had a long case with the IRS and a on top of setting that they decided the clearest path forward was to incorporate the part of the organization that had large revenue.
Given 5 year old cards can still perform at some level, buying makes much more sense than renting at $1 per hour.
That is the dream, the reality given the way DB allows for overcrowded ICE trains, is fighting to get the booked place, not being able to move anywhere, noise depends pretty much the neighbours, and if it eventually becomes easy enough to manage to go to the wagon bar, it is a matter of luck if they are there at all.
> Does the toilet ever work?

No need to use bus amenities outside of emergencies, just go to them at your nearest rest stop, far more comfortable than any plane!

> Is the seat same size as Ryanair?

I'd say that depends on the bus - many of the older ones or cheaper ones can be cramped, but most are fine. Plus, the chances of having two seats to yourself are higher.

Where planes are better: premium seating options, akin to getting a ride in a car.

> Vibration so bad that $500 noise cancelling headphones don't cope?

That's never been an issue for me headphones or no headphones. Depending on the roads, motion sickness could be a bigger problem for some folks, especially depending on the suspension, much like how some folks also get sick in planes.

I'd say that good buses or trains are amongst the most comfortable in regards to vibrations, followed by planes like Airbus cruising in clear skies, followed by most other buses. Whereas most planes would be less comfortable than those during takeoff, landing, climbing, or whenever there's turbulence or the planes are just older. Older trains would also take one of the latter positions, but they're probably not as bad as planes that are gaining altitude.

Actually, should probably mention boats while we're at it, those can be better in regards to sleeping, but otherwise the experience varies based on the conditions in the sea and size. Of course, the environmental impact is debatable, especially cruise ships.
> Pol Pot was classic Marxist

It's not true. Pol Pot was a madman that created his own crazy theory that included parts of Marxism.

Where does Marx said that the city populations must be evacuated to the villages and teachers killed?

Anyway, the point is not in the details. My point is that USA meddling with politics in remote countries usually results in civil war, millions of dead people and economical decline that lasts for decades. It was true for Cambodia, it's true for Arab Spring countries, it's true for Ukraine which is the last known victim of USA backed revolution to this day. How many more victims this world needs?

I think you're conflating two different forms of "centralized". There is nothing inherently un-git about centralizing a bunch of code in a single repo; the decentralization that git is all about is that the repo state is decentralized across multiple machines.
Point taken, but the opportunity cost of a heavy game addition is plausibly six or seven figures, depending on the person's other skills and goals.

I think it a good answer to the wrong question.

The wrong question is: (most/many) people cannot program because it is difficult to type the right things in, so let us remove typing.

The right question should be: how can we more efficiently develop software?

No-one would ever think to start a no-write movement because people cannot write properly. We instead teach everyone to write starting from the first grade, and we build tools to help them write better (dictionaries, word processors, spell checkers).

For programming, we should also concentrate on building tools (like the awesome IDEs of today) that makes developing software more efficient. Some of the efficiency can be had by no-code (i.e., Delphi-style forms), some can be had by improvements to technology (code completion), some can be had by improved language design. We should also invest more in programming education.

Low/no code DSLs are also good (think of Excel).

But I am skeptical of general purpose no-code: if it's Turing-complete, it's just a programming language in disguise.
I disagree that these are coding problems. Just math isn't coding. These might be real problems that are difficult to solve, and that problem solving happens on a computer, but that doesn't make it coding.
OK. So what is to be done?
Some of them were popular enough to get audiobook versions, which can help you get started if sitting down to read big tomes is something you find difficult
So what am I supposed to do as the consumer? Where can I buy things where this won't be the case? For a few product categories, I sometimes have alternatives. Farmers market which is seasonal. I'm lucky to live in Portland which had a great local book store. Many other things I need regularly are much harder.
