That’s how it starts. Later there’s running and screaming.
I'm sure that was all much more tasteful and better aligned when it was first built... Sandstone gothic? Disco cathedral? perhaps not.

Makes me wonder if that was the home of the folks who had the minigolf course and bowling alley in Lombard. Something about the stonework seems reminiscent of those places.
I left .net around the 2.0 days and came back with .net core 5.0. It's a world of difference, and absolutely worth checking out again. If anything, you don't need Windows to run it, and there's great tooling support outside of Visual Studio (VS is still pretty nice though).
Corrupt Comey, who shored up the ranks on the Steele dossier gaffe which is now bearing court cases, doesn't seem like the bastion of integrity that we should be assuming is performing in good faith.

Also, did you read anything else in the article?
So they advertise AppleCare+ features (24/7 support, on-site repair) but they don't currently offer that nor do the prices reflect those services. Page seems deceiving (have to read the small print to really understand the offering).

With those two removed, you're paying for an MDM solution and cloud storage.
> But there is probably already too much code out there with π=3.14 in it to be feasible to do this.

So for JS let it break in new, module based strict-mode code.

That’s going to be processed by tooling prior to shipping anyway, so that’ll get caught.

For other platforms do the same. In some forward-looking revision of the language/compiler.

People has to fix obsolete/deprecated stuff in newer compilers/class libraries all the time. This is no different.
You overthink things just without words. Anticipation itself can cause anxiety.
Yes, don’t use GAS if you have the possibility to avoid it.

Otherwise, do the heavy lifting somewhere else and use GAS as a very basic wrapper for your sheet.

One pattern that worked well for us in the past is to use Firebase functions (or Google Cloud Run) and leave the scripts to act as a dumb API to interact with the sheet.
Inflation has always been defined as a rise in the general price level. Consult any economics textbook or econometrics monograph in the 20th century.

"inflation is the goverment printing (inflating) currency to the market in order fund it's agenda by stealing your savings"

You are summarizing a policy theory called "monetarism" and presenting it as the consensus theory that is only now being departed from. This is inaccurate.

May I ask you if your inner voice has an accent, can you recognize a tone to it? It was very weird when I realized that other people can imagine their thoughts having a physical voice.
As a film photography enthusiast, I love the parallels between making a chip and film development. I wonder if film developing was the original inspiration
Wow, what a change! Apple spent many years holding the corporate market in mild contempt. Given the dominance of Windows, I totally get that; Apple was right to focus on the niches where they were successful. But it's amazing how much circumstances have changed to make this plausible.
It tends to be the well off people who dismiss inflationary pressures.

I certainly don't look at my heating bill every month.

But inflation is devastating to the working poor. Funny that it's so easily brushed aside by those who claim to advocate for them.

Consumer perception of the economy is roughly equivalent to 2009 numbers now, in a recent study. The public by and large thinks the economy is terrible, primarily due to the inflationary pressures.

Consider that unemployment affects the marginal job seeker, but inflation affects everybody. From a purely political lens, vying for higher employment at the expense of inflation, once past a reasonable threshold, seems like a losing move.
What Happens If We Don't Ask Big Questions? With David Kelley, IDEO Co-Founder
CPI does include housing, weighted at 32% in the CPI-U [1].

I have. I haven't noticed a change.
At this point, I think Apple's PRISM compliance is common knowledge. I hope.
>I don't see how a random person claiming something was shared with them in a phone call with another person, who probably has neither respect nor desire to talk to them is a geniune information. On top of that the person in question does not appear that trustworthy in my eyes. There is a serious possibility that he might be correct, but I would certainly not take it as established.

The "random person" is a Professor of Economics at the University of California, San Diego.

The "another person" is the owner of the site.

>On top of that, they have their methodology described on their website[1] and the charts match that.

So are you conceding that it's a constant number being added or not? It sure looks that way according to one of the tables in the page you linked. The "Cumulative Annual Inflation Shortfall" has been ~5.1% for more than a decade. Eyeballing the more recent figures (raw figures are paywalled) seems to confirm this as well.
Usually the disabled get the hardware through insurance or grants - in Texas, the state provides grants for assistive communication devices out of a fund sourced from a phone bill tax. My dad's Tobii i16 came out to ~$15k. Ex-USA, I'm sure the cost of these things is ... unreasonably prohibitive.

I'm actually kinda excited to find PyGaze, we might play with it and see if I can tweak a few things to improve his experience.
For many cognitive processes, I don't see a clear survival value to conscious awareness of that process, so I don't expect that awareness to be a reliable feature. The survival relevant result of that cognition can still come through.

I also think that an internal voice that doesn't get conscious awareness is likely to become a process that doesn't present as voice. So it's not like someone can just pay more attention and hear something, because it stopped talking a long time ago.
Can the antennas be coiled to achieve a long length while not being strung , for example, 40 meters? I recall car antennas that used to have coils long ago.
This is a user experience problem. It is easy to close a tab. It is hard to delete a bookmark, and easy to end up with a giant list of things you will never care about again.

50 tabs open is an indication that there is a stage between "I am actively reading" and "I care about this enough to make a permanent record."
Still pocket change for a multibillion company like Google.

I hope EU will keep hammering them with fines until they change, or until they start noticing the loss.
Bah. No politics are necessary here. There's enough and more to mock in this home from the sheer dysfunctional excess. If a home is primarily a place for people to live, this place fails in many, many ways.
Absolutely it is pork. Domestic production of microchips is a national security issue and should be subsidized like the manufacturing of aircraft and weapons systems.
Nice illustrations, though step 16 is pretty much "Draw the rest of the F** owl."
That's just it, the guy on the skateboard who pays a buck more a day for his Chipotle and SBUX isn't going to notice shit. The guy who feeds his family of 4 (vehicle, cloths, energy, taxes, life) is feeling it.
This bypasses the desired capability, that of getting info from the hard disk.

If you connect input in a feedback loop with an output and train on a particular output, of course you’re going to get the output you’re training for. It’s just not going to bear much resemblance to the data that’s on the hard disk without cooperation from the host system.
I appreciate you, nuclear energy. Just don't have meltdowns.
And the CPI figure is severely lagging public rent data

https://www.apartmentlist.com/research/national-rent-data

OER is a hugely flawed metric that is somewhat designed to suppress true cost increases. E.g. they include rent controlled units in the figure. Small portion, but clearly that's not a useful lens to analyze through.

Many other methodological flaws that can be enumerated
TCL would evolve a lot.
Regarding the task, modern OSes offer clipboard history, so IDK if this would be any useful. Is it a random example of an app or something the author thinks they really need?
Money is the most important thing in life. It's always people who have money who say it's not important. But then when you ask them to give you or loan you or invest in you a tiny amount of their money, suddenly they act as if it's the most precious thing in the universe and they do this while simultaneously lecturing you about how unimportant it is. Hypocrites.

Many corporate CEOs constantly shout at their staff... Open source people are the most patient people on the planet. I don't know any angry open source person so I don't understand this argument at all.

It took me 10 years of open source work before I was able to experience some financial success for the first time. I didn't start doing open source for money; I did it for attention, but these days, money and attention are the same thing. So now everything I do is 100% about money. It's easier to get money than attention nowadays... Look at companies like Snap and Uber; they don't earn any money (not profits) but they're valuable because of attention.

Nothing about the pandemic was deflationary, money did not become more valuable at any time delta during the pandemic.
Funny/coincidental that the paper is paywalled and needs an account, thanks for the preprint!

What’s the best compromise? Fandom sites are a category that doesn’t not represent all site contributions. The high value contributions are changed more likely due to the volume, scaling will have different properties which the paper mentions in group size and how Wikipedia has bots to detect it, but there is no reason why a fandom site can’t have API tools to do that as well.

I liked the mention of a captcha as well, to prevent the lower quality spamming, which can be removed through reputation through IP when they make consistent high quality contributions. Wikipedia has shadow accounts made with IP, and remove contributions from low quality additions by filtering them, so the best compromise to me seems to require accounts that don’t look like accounts IP, device recognition, and identification without official registration.

On websites with required accounts, I don’t see any evidence that accounts contribute to quality, it’s more important to have a community that cares for quality, many sites need registration and just have large amounts of single use accounts that required registration, and sites like Reddit will tie posts to a username and often have an ego attached with their site score for a quick unfair value judgement which is popularity based, the judgement on a post is often tied with history, rather than judging the post by its own merits, while wiki contributions will not usually be knowingly tied to certain users.

Why do you think that China wouldn't just down these other app stores?
This article points out the CPI increased, not simply some rare items. This increase reflects exactly the basket of goods people buy.
> I worry that if I start taking fixed-fee projects the incentive to make good software will be gone (the faster I deliver, the better). There's no incentive for documenting things, writing tests, creating a CI/CD pipeline or any of that. These things simply become nice-to-haves that will not matter once you deliver the project and cash yourself out.

If you're setting this stuff up when you're doing hourly billing, are you not explaining to the client why it's worth the time in the long run? Just do the same for fixed price quotes. There must be some value to the client or you probably wouldn't think of doing it.

> While this is sort of true, I also find that hourly work gives you more freedom to approach the work with a "craftsmanship" mindset. We all know good work takes time.

I feel the opposite with hourly. In the worst case, you're having to ask permission before billing hours on something (like setting up CI) and then having your timesheets scrutinised. This takes up time itself and slows everything down. With fixed price, the client doesn't have to worry about tracking your hours and just lets you get on with it.
Why charging phones is such a complex business, with Anker CEO
A few comments:

1. I was paying for iCloud and apple service for *YEARS* but then suddenly when I lost my phone, iCloud had no record of it.

2. I have had multiple employers in Silicon Valley who had the BYOD (Bring you own device) policy implemented but then they attached a SECONDARY DEVICE to my iCloud account and were slurping all personal records from that.

3. Show me a way to FUCKING MANAGE WHO IS ACCESSING MY DATA.

4. I have too many more issues at level 4 that @dang will get mad if I share (and FB and others will sue me again if I dare)... think paul stamets on the secrets of mushrooms -- If you have any sort of work phone, know they are slurping ALL the deets..

Never take a personal phone/device into a workplace environment.

In my case - I was going through a verry messy divorce, and my employer had been surveilling my texts and everything because when I joined I made the mistake of adding my apple ID -- and then the employer added a fucking device to my account and was surveilling everything.

Yeah - if you get a job in tech these days, the ironic thing is to be an off-grid person.

Of course, because a certificate is a statement about some fact. Therefore a certificate is useful as a certificate to the extent that the issuer can be trusted about the statement that is being made. But that doesn't apply to NFTs because the issuer of an NFT is not making any statement. An NFT is more like a blank piece of paper that has been rubber stamped by somebody.
That's a practical solution, but IMO React is playing a fundamentally different game here, they have Native for mobile apps, and third-party (!) support for Windows and Mac (what about Linux?). Native doesn't even support the web, like React and React Native are two different things, they just share a somewhat similar UI framework basically.

Flutter on the other hand is architected as a solve-it-all solution. They even went as far as designing Dart rather than hacking a decent solution on top of JS and the current mess of web standards. IMO that's a much more interesting and powerful approach, that isn't fully ready yet, but if it ever becomes actually good I'll personally probably jump ship and use it for everything.
Related, when I play H.265 videos on Windows 10/NVIDIA 10 series card the player app crashes after 4-5 seek operations. I assume it's video card related, but it has up to date drivers.
It wouldn't require any training at all. It's reading motor inputs.

You're assuming that everyone's motor cortex/nervous system is wired exactly the same way. Given what we know about the variability of the human body, I wouldn't expect this to hold for the entire population.
>prices absouletly went down as well.

Where? On what? Prices everywhere stayed flat or increased.
Nope. You can’t change the outcome, you can only make an observation on one and then and only then know the state of the other. What is being observed is entirely random.
Advice for Aspiring Bloggers
Looks like a set for "Scarface" - gaudy and kitsch made real.
Semantically, yes, and you're speculating as well. You're speculating that fiat would remain stable and hold value, that inflation would not run rampant.

I'm refuting your speculations of stable fiat with evidence shown in the macroeconomics, and of countries whose currencies have entered hyperinflation.
Looks great. I recall Apple held out for a long time to play ball with enterprise IT, focusing on consumer. It seems like they've fully embraced the massive enterprise market.
It doesn't really need to be "by design".

Those with an outsource chunk of wealth and power tend to (a) be a small percentage of the population (b) have naturally aligned goals; those goals will be addressed using the tools at hand.

Those without much wealth or power represent a large and almost ridicuously diverse population, by almost every metric except having much wealth and power. It is much more difficult for them to agree upon goals let alone coordinate any sort of action that would further those goals.

Consequently, the "natural" state of affairs, once you allow wealth and power to accumulate in the hands of a fraction of the population, is for the goals of the wealthy and the powerful to take precedence.

Yes, a common construction are these five-over-ones, with a steel-reinforced concrete first floor (for retail) and then wood framed 5-story apartments above.

CPI doesn't include the stock market, either. Real estate is an asset. Rent is included, however. They estimate how much a home owner is effectively paying in rent.
Storing files in iCloud Drive is very different from a backup I would argue.

What a business would want in this case is Backblaze like functionality with versioning / restore. iCloud drive also doesn't really help you with restoring a full system like it is possible on iOS where all your settings, passwords and apps are just like you left them.
Are they really? I thought that was just a joke. That's ridiculous if they're serious.

> which would set aside $2 billion for the kind of older-technology chips of which there is a deep shortage
Interest rates really should have went up a couple of years ago. Not just for the sake of stemming inflation, but what good is the tool of lower rates in bad times when they are already at bottom in good times?

If something goes wrong (or more wrong) we will have no effective economic tools available because they are constantly running as if we are in crisis already.
This may be pork from Intel, but even TSMC is getting subsidies to build fabs in the US. The US see strategic interest in chip fabs.

Not enough information on that page but...doubt it?
With NVDA on Windows, when I read the comment normally, it's spelled out. When I read it character by character, I get "symbol FFF8" for each of the hidden Unicode characters. And when I move line by line through NVDA's linear representation of the web page, the hidden characters count against the length of the line for the purpose of word wrapping.

Narrator's behavior is weirder. If I turn on scan mode and move onto the line with the up or down arrow key, Narrator says nothing. If I read the current line with Insert+Up Arrow, Narrator spells it out like NVDA does. When moving character by character, Narrator says nothing for the hidden Unicode characters. And because Narrator doesn't do its own line wrapping but defers to the application to determine what counts as a line, the text only counts as one line.

Disclosure: I used to work on the Windows accessibility team at Microsoft, on Narrator among other things.
The first part of solving this problem may lie in tying identity with micro payments to make and read updates/comments on content. We would do this by implementing the 402 HTTP code stub using the Lightning Network. There already exists a proxy to implement this: https://github.com/lightninglabs/aperture

The second part of implementing this is to increase the cost of producing bad content for a particular identity. Using a proof of stake type system based on the identity and content, not the coin itself, might allow decent scaling of moderation.

> work by selecting validators in proportion to their quantity of holdings

In this particular case, the comments on the content (holdings) become the selecting validators. The more high quality validations through consensus of other identities, the cheaper it becomes to comment as a particular identity. If the identity becomes a bad actor later, subsequent consensus from other identities increases the cost of that identity posting new content related (through identity) to their older, higher quality content. In a way, the content an identity produces becomes their "ego" or "account".

But, by using crypto identities, no "account" is needed. A tag may be added to the content in a particular system to indicate which transaction and identity was responsible for paying to add that content. The system remains secure for privacy of participating individuals, other than what they leak through posting their thoughts to a public forum.
But if I understand you correctly, only the player, not Windows entirely?

LIGO collaboration member here: this is a tunable knob, independent of the number of detectors, that we've set very intentionally based on feedback from astronomers who want to follow up with optical/gamma/neutrino instruments following our BNS detections. We could reduce our false positive rate to a negligible number today, at the cost of _not_ reporting many likely discoveries.

Also, a minor point but there are only two LIGO detectors online at the moment, with a third sister detector in Italy (named Virgo), and a fourth coming online soon in Japan (named KAGRA). There does in fact exist a third LIGO instrument, but it's currently mothballed, awaiting construction in India.
