> depression is a flatland, yet even within it there are small tiny windows of light that can be noticed and built on.

Nothing but toxic positivity. I have depression and three suicide attempts. What stops me now? Not caring if I am depressed and learning from the lessons it gives me.

Depression is only a disease or a disorder because our society does not give you the time to understand it and listen to it. Nope, got to get back to work otherwise out on the street with you!

I love my depression, it lets me see a world so few others see. No less true than the common or manic world. And that depressive world still acts upon the other worlds but you all just do not see it.
Benchmarking the Apple M1 Max
Same here... when I started with Linux (around 17-18 years ago), I had to customize everything - from the aesthetics, ergonomics to the system level stuff.

Now I just change wallpaper and mouse cursor theme, check enabled services and remove the packages I consider unnecessary. Including the fresh installation time, it is less than 1 hour effort.
Well, but then how do you explain the total non-correlation between number of cases vs vaccination rates in various countries ?
Where is the triangulation happening? This is really confusing.
It was a factor in deciding where I wanted to live in the US. I was not going to raise my daughter or expect my wife to have kids in a place that did not have parental leave laws.
Lots of folks out there who don’t want to do newborn work or spend time with their family, anecdotally. It’s a chore, not a benefit.

Higher level, the value of children to parents is declining based on total fertility rate declines.

Might be different in other countries, but where I live only one parent can take the full 18 months leave. For the other parent, its only a few weeks. In practice, the one that's paid less takes the leave, and that's usually the mother.
I think the pandemic has handily proven that C-suite executives are really good at generating whatever reality distortion fields are necessary to ignore any evidence contrary to their own personal comfort and how they "always did things".

You can still do that!

Make the PC see each other in the LAN is just a matter of ticking one box. I typically create a folder somewhere and give r/w access to everyone then I proceed to log in with the credentials of the computer then put whatever I want. After I am finished I delete the folder. I think it uses SMB under the hood.
No, it's an inherent problem whenever a packet-switched, multi-user, shared channel inherently built around queued transmission tries to emulate real-time protocols, the earliest of which is "a directly-connected wire."

This sort of substitution can work, but it requires very stable, low-noise links (that is, with little to no burst noise) and the cooperation of devices and network equipment.
You could safely get rid of most of those things if you made the car go no faster than say 25mph. Just put speed limiters on them and the crash speeds will go way down as will the design requirements.
Interestingly it uses their own CDN infrastructure by default by checking https://mensura.cdn-apple.com/api/v1/gm/config for which endpoint to use.
Sure you can, people do it all the time, but I'll grant you that it kinda sucks (which is how I notice that people do it all the time). There are situations where everything you want to reflect is already on screen and the angular difference between the camera and reflected camera isn't enough to be noticeable. When those conditions are met, SSR is awfully tempting. Water is the usual suspect, but wall-mounted mirrors can work too if the camera will only see it from glancing angles and it's reflecting a wide-open space.

Tradeoffs, tradeoffs, everywhere.
The more you work at it the more you discover strategies for solving different problems, eventually you can perform a total solution. May not be the the most efficient but it will work. Also maybe you may discover unique strategies others have not.
It's regular Javascript, so if you program it properly then you can re-use a lot of code with minimal work. Depends on how you architect your project to say how easy it would be.
> percentage of those utilizing will be low and the disproportionate benefit will inherently fall with a small percentage.

The percentage of society deriving a benefit from a healthy workforce is very high. On the order of 100%.
'Cambio Corsa' -> exchange while on the course, in case you were wondering. The lack of idler gears is the interesting part because that makes this a very efficient system. Once it is in a particular gear there is no difference between just having the one gear other than a little bit of extra weight. Derailleurs with idler gears were already in use in the TDF long before this. The lack of a detent before the rear wheel can drop out would give me the willies about operating this system at any speed, you are supposed to peddle forward while changing the gear to a smaller gear ratio (larger rear gear), and backwards when gearing 'up' to maintain constant chain tension.

Modern idlers are quite efficient, but back then the materials science that allowed both a light weight idler wheel yet strong enough and friction free to be 'in play' all the time wasn't really there yet, derailleur itself had been invented decades ago. But that didn't take all that long though, a few years later technology had caught up.

Try Spanish online digital administration. The digital certificates only worked in IE. And mid-process they require installing a Java-based program that required a different type of digital certificate. That of course make you restart the browser and lose all the data entered.
Just wow. I couldn't even come up with such a bad process if I wanted.

Yes, and birds are lousy coders. We all have our strengths.
I'm sorry sir, you cannot pay municipal taxes using federal income tax credit tokens, they must be converted by an approved partner first.
I know a lot of people who would disagree with that statement, and that's just fine.

I think we can objectively say the da Vinci is a better painter. Or at least that his known work shows a much higher level of skill and technical competence than any known work of Banksy. That is however not at all the same as saying that da Vinci produced more interesting art than Banksy. Banksy's art is certainly easier for many to 'get' and understand and be moved by today without having to take an art history class.

And on a personal level, while I respect da Vinci as an artist more, I would still chose a Banksy over a da Vinci to have displayed in my living room (ignoring all financial arguments).
I'm sure if we wait another 35 years, everything will adopt those

I took less than the allotted time. I was bored sitting at home. Much of the first 3 months is feeding the baby, something I am physically unequipped to do.

I enjoy work and the comradery of my co-workers. I was working from home anyway, so there was no long commute. And it gave me something to do. I'm a programmer. I like my work. It gives me an outlet for my creativity and allows me to bond with co-workers. And I care about the product and deliverables I'm working on. I don't like letting my coworkers down as they cover for me.

I took another 2 weeks after my wife went back to work.

By indirectly, I mean that when they compare me to the other people they don't seem to be prorating my "stats" for that extra time off.
Sandra Faber on the Future of the Earth
had the same with a very broken citrix setup. Inalways hated citrix itself because how srupidly it was set up, but the more quirks I was working around, I realized that in the windows world it's actually a pretty sophisticated product with a lot of tunables for even Linux guests.

Nevertheless, I left banking for good and chose a company where I have real IT engineers as colleagues.

Oh, cool, didn't know it! Yeah, giving regular attention to one's mental health, and being proactive in treating things as they appear, is a good advice.
And to this point, why do we fear depression so much? Why is it not something to welcome instead of fighting and trying to control? Maybe the fighting is what is causing the problem?

I will tell you when I ended my battle with depression, my suffering ended. My depression as still there but my suffering was gone.

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois (I can't vouch for any of the other Blue Cross affiliates) recently redid their website. I was wondering why the hell it was kicking me out after logging in, with a "did you forget your password?" message. Multiple password reset attempts later, I called their tech support and asked what was up. I use Firefox on Linux as my daily driver.

What was up was that on their new site, I had to use Google Chrome and only Google Chrome. Not Firefox, not even Chromium. I wonder if Edge even works.

I'm seriously considering switching providers over it.
Yeah i never get the love for air pods, maybe i just have weird ears but no earbud has ever fit my ear in anyway that I would be acceptable.

I have a pair of jabra active elite's that i use for working out/biking/doing crap outdoors and they are fantastic. Can't really think of a single complaint with them.
Yep, I have many of them. It's hard, and and sleep deprivation is not the most direct path to Zen. But... behind it all there is this deep seated satisfaction and, yes, happiness with raising children.
In regards to your quote, this is free and if I wanted to switch, I could just copy and paste the javascript into node with some minor tweaks.

A big motivator for this was definitely just to try out Cloudflare workers and see how they are. I've set up countless servers for APIs. In terms of time, I'd say Cloudflare workers is a bit faster when you get over the initial learning curve. Obviously you could write a deploy script for a server and have it set up everything automatically, and I have done that in the past, but sometimes it's fun to try new things right?

I never intended for this to come across as a technological accomplishment. I even end the article with "That’s pretty much it. It’s fairly simple with no real catches". I'm merely presenting what I thought would be useful information for some people. Personally I think maintaining a server is more work than maintaining this, but to each their own.
I guess people just take it for granted, but can you state a fundamental reason why people should be forced to live next to affordable housing?

What if I pay extra money to live in a nice location, say with an unobstructed view to a lake or whatever. Why should there be a law that decides my neighborhood has to be destroyed for the sake of "equality"?

Does equality (or "non-inequality") mean nobody is allowed to have anything that somebody else doesn't have? Because that sounds like full blown socialism to me.

What about San Francisco - I hear they have many homeless and people defecating on the streets. Should everybody be forced to live on streets with defecating people? What if people pay extra to live in a ice neighborhood?
I really cant understand the logic of forcing women back into work after 2-4 weeks.

Its just not beneficial for anyone.

The mum is utterly frazzled.

The employer gets half an employee back

Society is conditioned to think that the only practical way to raise a baby is to give up on work/get live in care.

now, to look at it from a "my mum managed, I don't want to undermine the american nuclear family" point of view:

Yes, mums working is an anathema, but given that exceedingly difficult to own a good house, have good health insurance and have an economically inactive partner at home, I suspect the problem here isn't the mum. I suspect its the salami slicing of wages to the average joe/joelle.

Even if it undermines the american nuclear family, having such a big obstacle to the "correct"[1] type of family having babies is going to undermine the "correct" family having babies. Which means one's chosen view of family dies out with inflation.

Given that _every_ other "civilised" country has some sort of rudimentary care for new parents, which doesn't acutally cost that much, I can't see any reasonable objection to not having it.

[1]I'm not going to define what correct is, its divisive and allows people to project what they think is wrong with "the other side" who ever they might be, rather than engage with the specifics at hand.
I'm reaching? Like, why would the defense's wrong argument be relevant? You're not arguing with the defense here.

Your claim was that the judge's call is wrong because zooming doesn't actually do interpolation and has thus no potential to introduce wrong information. I've told you that zooming in this case does interpolate and that interpolation has the potential to go wrong.
'America' can theoretically mean either the US or the two continents of the Americas depending on the context, but a US newspaper will invariably use 'America' to mean 'The United States of America'.

In fact most people proficient in English (second language learners included) will expect that 'America' means the USA. Surely you're not hearing this for the first time? Anyone who wishes to reference the continents tends to use the plural form.
How to audit Solana smart contracts Part 1: a systematic approach
I don't get it. Most religions were against usury and they insisted on debt forgiveness if the debtor can't pay.

Charging 0% interest is absolutely fantastic. The only problem is that we don't do the debt forgiveness. We bail out banks and then expect tax payers to shoulder some or all of the losses. It was especially bad with Germany vs Greece. German banks were bailed out and public healthcare was basically eliminated in Greece.

The only reason why anyone would be against low interest rates is that they noticed that those interest rates eat into economic rents and therefore the owner of money benefited from the economic rents rather than the owner of the monopoly.
In that sense, the only difference is that the money goes to the land owner instead of going to the bank. People don't realize that if they buy a $600k house with 0% interest that they would still have to pay $600k at 5% interest except most of the money goes to the bank instead of the seller who only gets $250k (made up number).
I don’t think I will agree with you, but I’m curious to see how paid parental leave is like a Ponzi scheme.
What? Not only is this a bizarre argument (why would deterministically creating wrong information be okay?), it's not even correct. There's nothing that fundamentally prevents an image scaling NN from being deterministic and I doubt you think that deterministically adding someone's face would be fine, right?
Agreed, this is especially noticeable when making digital music. The latency was too much for me to be able to naturally follow a rhythm. Plugging in a wire improved the situation by a lot.
> Saying "other countries do it" isn't really an answer. There's no clear solutions

It is an answer, because it’s been working well for decades in other countries. Right now I have a man in my team taking his parental leave and I as a manager have no problem with it at all. When hiring I just accept this risk and keep in mind possible mitigations (temporary reduction in capacity and expences or hiring substitution or redistribution of workload etc).
A cycling historian could clear up whether freewheels were allowed in racing during that time period. They were forbidden in the original Tour of France. Variable gearing already existed, in enclosed gear hubs, and remained a preferred choice for non competition cycling for at least into the earl 1970s.
I think the author - who passed away unfortunately - has more than enough to say about dealing with bad actors. Read his book The Psychopath Code.
The Solana blockchain is exploding in popularity due to its rock-bottom transaction fees.

You can’t be serious? You analogy is very flawed. A better analogy is affordable house and affordable transportation. Guess what? It’s call mass transit. It’s called planned communities. And yes, affordable cars can be made. Americans bitched and moaned they couldn’t. The Japanese are their lunch.

Leaving something up to developers resulted in McMansions. This has been studied a lot and the results are clear.

One, directed policy is the fastest way to affordable housing.

Two, affordable doesn’t mean slums. This isn’t Section 8. This is the government setting policy that dense housing needs to be build near transit centers. Wow. What a concept. I would take it a step further and require certain building practices that increase the expected lifespan of the condo. It can be done without looking like a 70s prison.

Stop letting people build anywhere without penalty. Have defined city limits with dense housing and transit / walk ability to go with it.

So many things you can do we don’t do. More people should live aboard.
> Useful if you want to e.g. automate VPN network switching or locations

Can you elaborate on that a bit, please?
Again, saying "other countries do it" isn't really an answer. That's like saying why are incomes in Mexico so much lower than the US? Just do what the US does.

In fact, Mexico has 12 weeks. And Greece has 40. I'd rather be a parent in the US than Greece or Mexico. Policies don't exist in a vacuum.
You can achieve nearly the same thing by creating your Entities, generating migration from them with a single command, migrating your db with another one(or from code on startup) and returning them directly from Controller's method using DB Context. It's honestly not that much more work. It's far from a recommended approach though... Granted, Django Admin is pretty nice and although there are few nugets that try to achieve that I never found them as easy as in Django.
Generations of kids have grown up this way without issue. Sleeping 7/8 hours at a daycare is barely different than sleeping 7/8 hours at home. And the other hour bing broken up while being held with a bottle and a diaper change.
Why should people be in favor of lowering their property values?

Also even if it sounds good and social, you can also turn it on its head and realize why socialism breeds hopelessness: if you establish a rule that people have to live in properties with low value, nobody will have to hope to ever escape those conditions.
Not sure why it works (parental leave and universal health care) in the rest of the world but ~cannot not work in the US. Maybe the US is so focused on being "pure capitalist" that you forgot the peoples who are part of the system?
Charlie Alliston should have been using a front brake, but a few things got lost in the media frenzy:

- More pedestrians are killed by motor vehicle than bikes in London BY FAR

- More cyclists are killed by motor vehicles than bikes in London BY FAR

- More motorists are killed by motor vehicles than bikes in London BY FAR

It was incredibly depressing to watch people spend so much attention on one (pretty rare!) case rather the real sources of road danger in the city.
The goal of "the (political-)economy" is not to increase some number relentlessly.

There is a trade off in all things. Something that is being studied now, Abused children cost society a fortune in missed productivity, court, criminal, medical and social care. What is the cost for those not abused but just where the family is stressed for decades, what missed potential, what of those that fell into crime at the margin.

We forsake the growing of our adults at a cost later on. And 90% of that growing comes from the family unit. So we forsake the family unit at our own cost.

I am not saying we should all be the Waltons, but we should aspire in that direction. Schools, urban environments. Even seemingly crazy ideas like early start support, or therapy for couples every 5 years, all start to look like "stitches in time"

There may be no clear solutions at the level of "who pays for missed working days" but then we are privileging private businesses beyond the level their role in society is I suspect.
So if in 5 years the iPad really uses AI when zooming, it's perfectly fine because it's a built-in feature? What an absurd argument.

And both the prosecutions and defense's claims were fantastical, unsubstantiated (beyond some incorrect 'common sense' handwaving) and wrong - so since it's the prosecution that wants to enter new evidence, it's perfectly fine to ask them to back to it up. This isn't 'proving a negative', it's just asking them to prove that what they said (that zooming doesn't change the evidence).

If you thought your boss would resent you for taking the full benefit and would rank your performance poorly, would you take that risk knowing that you've now got a very small person who is relying on you? You could potentially be limiting bonuses, raises, and promotions for an extra few days off. I'm not saying this is right, but I can imagine a reasonable new father feeling this pressure.

I doubt many people shorten their paid time off simply because they love work so much.
