I have a 3 cup Moka pot from them too, recently replaced the seal with a similar rubber one but I'd be very interested in trying out the silicone one as well, but it doesn't seem like a common occurrence - mind if I ask where you got it from? Was it an online store?
A few months ago I gave a sturdy, 6-cup Bialetti to a friend as a present. He recently admitted that he managed to accidentally melt (!) the damn thing down, as he forgot to switch off the fire. I was curious if he really managed to melt the metal. But unfortunately he has not shared a picture of it; he was too embarrassed about it, and he just tossed it into the trash.

> I will switch to an induction stove I will have to buy a new steel pot, or switch to an electric one

Or buy an induction plate adapter. I have not used one, so I cannot tell how practical they are, just saying they exist.
What precisely does that entail? I could say that and then prevent you from hearing anything from the outside world, just keep you locked in a cellar. It's for your own good, I understand how the propaganda might affect your delicate mind.
How is it different than WebAuthn+FIDO2?
Not at all related to this but posting for visibility.

Firefox never updates automatically for me and I've uninstalled, removed my account and other basic troubleshooting steps I've found through Googling never help.

I have to run the installer with every update. And that would be fine but it resets some settings that don't sync with your profile, as an example, it always changes language spell check back to US English from British or Australian English. Its giving me the shits.

How do I fix the above?
Maaaan, I was expecting friendly pictures and stuff. Every computer science book looks like this cheat sheet!
This. People underestimate how hard physical labour is. I'd rather do anything computer related than manual work.
What? An attack on the party is not seen as an attack on Han man. You can't just conveniently draw false comparisons between western paradigms and China. You keep saying unsubstantiated stereotypes while I keep posting sources.

Han supremacism — while it exists — is largely not a thing and certainly not state policy. State policy is that minorities receive extra benefits that Han do not enjoy, and that the provincial government heads of minority provinces must be of those ethnicities.

Please go to China and tell a Chaoxianzu he's not Chinese. He'll tell you to fuck off.

Please go to China and tell people that the KMT should have won the civil war and see how people react.
Was halfway expecting some counterintuitive result like that infamous "JSON.parse() is faster than an actual JSON literal" meme a while ago.

Somewhat relieving the results here follow the common-sense expectation. (I.e. getElementById is faster than querySelector)
I come from the town where Bialetti, Alessi, Lagostina and a bunch of other brands were founded. Think about Silicon Valley but for kitchenware.

All these products enjoyed (and still enjoy) great success around the world but all these companies are not in good shape anymore, mostly due to the fact that the product they built were long lasting, therefore they are not forcing customers to buy new products every few years.
At least for human interaction, your job is what you make of it. Granted, it's much easier when you're in the same office as your co-workers rather than remote.
That part I like, it means I no longer need a separate extension for that purpose. I could have done without the Mozilla VPN spam though.

> Which developed countries have courses in school to learn touch typing?

Mine did (Europe). Junior high. Around the age of 13, I think. It's been a while. But only as part of a particular course, which I didn't take - I had picked another one. I don't remember which one included the touch typing, but apparently it was one which a lot of students attended.

I learned touch typing at home when I was 14 or 15, my mother changed careers and had to learn touch typing, so she borrowed a Scheidegger typewriter (those with the coloured keys) and a course book, and I thought "Why not?" and did about 15 minutes every day. I tried to be consistent and do it "right", and after three weeks I had it pat down (I should add that those who followed the school course were for the most part a bit sloppy, and most didn't really learn it even though they had the course for the whole semester).

Then when I did my mandatory military service we had to go through a touch type course as well. It wasn't even half as good as the Scheidegger course, but in any case I could touch type already so I didn't care.

For me it helped greatly to be able to touch type when I started working in programming - my mind would fly and I could keep up with my typing. I cringed when I watched over the shoulder of (equally young) colleagues who constantly had to break their concentration to hunt for keys to press, one at the time (of course as years went by those people got much faster, with the same method, and those particular problems disappeared for them).

And in my job I've always had to write a lot of documents, and of course touch typing helps greatly there.
Hey are there any good resources you'd recommend?
Usual or Unusual, Hire Experts for Appliance Repair in Surrey
Any device can malfunction as a result of prolonged usage if adequate regular upkeep is not provided and it is worth mentioning that services of appliance repair in Surrey can be simple, all you need to do is call a reliable expert. You may wake up a morning to wash your dishes and if your dishwasher is not working, you may consider troubleshooting the problem all by yourself.
> Relational database seem to be a crazily overengineered solution in search of a problem

I mean, whoever in their right mind would want to:

- have a snapshot of data

- query data, including ad-hoc querying

- query related data

- have trasactional updates to data

When all you need is an unbounded stream of data that you need to traverse in order to do all these things.
The Sick History of Public Education
Bialetti (and others) manufactures also stainless steel ones, not sure why would one buy aluminium ones (when we phased out aluminium from basically all other cookware).

I am super happy with mine, close to a thousand coffees made with 0 maintenance, for 5% of the price of a good coffee machine. And the only waste is coffee grind itself.
Noted on this one, thank you very much!
Two tips that worked for me: fill it with boiling water and use Lavazza Qualita Oro. Other combinations do indeed taste sour or burned.
> The computer doesn't understand the sum.

That's obvious? Computers don't understand anything. They're just machines. What did you expect?

> you the human still has to do all the math work figuring out what to do with it

Yeah. But with this tool, as dumb as I-the-human am, I am able to do that math even if I don't understand it, but more importantly I also have a much better chance of understanding what's happening. That's because the explanation is close to the place where it's needed (in a docstring, one key press away) and it is expressed in a way that I'm most familiar with (as code).

You're going to tell me that if I want to use math, I have to let go of every preconception I had and crawl into Plato's cave, to see the light in the darkness. I'm too dumb to do this, unfortunately, and a little bit too busy. It took me almost five years to really master C++ programming after all, while you skimmed Stroustrup's book and went on to write Qt the next day.

> but they haven't actually programmed the logic for infinite sums into the computer

They did. Just not the whole of it. Are you sure it's impossible to improve to the point where a skilled human no longer holds the definitive advantage?

Computers can't understand anything. But they are very good at blindly following the rules. The question is not what to do to make computers understand infinity, but what set of rules can emulate the real thing well enough. We're getting there. Maybe in another 100-200 years CS will swallow maths, who knows?

Pycograph – Query the Python code with Cypher
When picking server language for web development I think it is more important to look at how the platform works rather than language features.

This is important

* memory model (shared, per request, etc)
* request model (by the app or by the web server)
* compilation/build step
* deployment
* hosting
* tooling (IDEs, linters, testing, package manager, etc)
* how to scale
* available programmers
* community

This is not important

* $ in variable names
* arrows (->) for accessing object members
* argument order in standard library
* not elegant enough
French press gives almost no pressure, while Aeropress can give you 10 psi – it mostly depends how fine you make it and how fast you press it.
If you compare globally sure, if you compare with Europe,
the data tells a different story. The US are 27th in social mobility behind all of the northwestern European nations with high taxation (data from the WEF, infographic from the site I link to).

While Germany and the other European nations are far from perfect and I like some of the business aspects of the US, coming from money matters more in the US than in Europe, statistically.

From what I've seen, stainless steel Bialettis (what you need for induction) are not the original "made in Italy". Not that it is necessarily a bad thing, but there is little point sticking with the Bialetti brand if you want an induction moka pot.

Some sibling comments mentioned replacing the rubber seal fixes the issue of burnt taste. I took a look at my rubber seals and they did have a burnt smell, so I'm gonna give that a shot. Thanks for sharing and good luck with your friend's Moka pot!

As a South African who lost family due to the Delta wave, I hope that they don't only ban travel from South Africa, but also ban travel to South Africa.

Due to our lack of political will from a corrupt Health Minister and an aloof President, we didn't stop international travel when the first cases of Delta were confirmed. It wreaked havoc locally.

Our tourism sector gets adversely affected, but we just came out of an election cycle where cases are now rising again. Better for EU and other states to ban travel to our country because our President won't do it.

It's uncertain if this mutation occurred locally, seems we're just the first ones to identify it. That's however less relevant until all other countries can start identifying the variant.
The Porlex is really terrible. They aren't that cheap anymore and are still ceramic. If you want to go the cheap and compact route, get the Rhinowares.

Otherwise spend a bit more money and get the 1Zpresso Q2. I think this is the cheapest grinder with 34mm stainless steel burrs you can get that fits inside the Aeropress plunger.

You'll thank yourself later for getting the stainless steel burrs.
Oh are we pretending to care about genocide again? I thought that was out of fashion after seeing the world’s (non-)reaction to the CCP’s genocide of Uyghurs.
It’s Black Friday, ‘70s-Style
I haven't used a moka pot for decades; IME, they made bitter coffee. Since they still work the same way, I don't imagine that's changed.

It's possible that my taste in coffee has changed over time, though; back then I didn't really like strong coffee, now I do.

The article doesn't deal much with the character of the coffee produced, nor the effect of the huge difference in pressure between a moka pot and a (professional) Gaggia. My tame barrista makes a big deal about how important the correct pressure is. Also: I wonder whether the pressurised boiling chamber results in water that is hotter than 100C, yielding bitter coffee.
In our org, all the website events are pushed into Kafka and it enabled all the teams to develop real-time event driven applications using these events without needing any access to website database or any infra that handles the main website. It’s truly a blessing in large organisations.
I use systemverilog daily, and it's very powerful. What does myhdl bring that's a game changer or even significant advantage in practice? SV has quite powerful synatx, especially for verification, and it seems this replicates the basics of that but had to force it into an imperative box by using yield, etc to achieve concurrence, while SV has it by default - so SV is less complex in thst regard. Its an impressive achievement nonetheless, but I'm looking for a reason to switch.

I am at lost what and why these people want? It appears that they are supported in part by what can be only considered some extreme organizations, which is also reflected in their defocused-all-inclusive-non-realistic-list of demands. The expressed attitude and of their casting a net of demands across almost the entire spectrum of societal deficiencies is infantile and is (should be) doomed to fail. It is also sad to see the level of disorientations (which is probably not their fault as it is a western trend for some time) in which causal order follows. The plague of mixed-economy in which a civil war of special interests "arm-wrestle" for legislative lever of a government is a result of government policy, not that of corporation (private sector in general). This is a thing understood since (inception of the principles of an enlightened society) 400 years ago (Locke, Hobbs, etc), one car argue even to the old Greek philosophers who also could articulate similar principles long before legal corporations existed (though this is not the point here).
Bangle looks like an interesting project.

I tried using it but couldn't get it to work. It relies on keystrokes like Ctrl-P and Ctrl-Shift-P, which I dislike for 2 reasons:

(1) it forces people to remember commands when they shouldn't have to. GUIs have used menus, buttons etc for this for ages.

(2) Perhaps importantly, it doesn't work for my setup (Firefox on Linux), where Ctrl-Shift-P opens another Firefox window for privater browsing.

Also I note that File System storage only works with the Chrome browser. This is probably a good thing because I do not want random web pages being able to look at my filesystem!

I think the prevalence of CCTV in the UK warrants skepticism about its effectiveness as the UK doesn't necessarily have better crime numbers than comparable countries. I know video surveillance is mostly available in hot spots, but for me it is certainly uncomfortable to be under scrutiny constantly and it isn't something I would want to get used to as it does not provide significant benefits.

Is there genocide of Uyghurs ? Genocide is systematic killing of one ethnic group. You can claim there’s cultural genocide but nobody or no institution proved there is or was systematic killing/murder of Uyghurs
I don't know why people feel the need to whatabout this. The Uyghur genocide is a much more complex scenario due to the power of China ( and there have been boycotts, including by countries, of stuff related to slave labour there). The same way that nobody can actually do anything when a great power such as the US or Russia commit atrocities, home or abroad. Where were the boycotts or sanctions over Guantanamo and the whole illegal kidnapping and torture programs, or heck, the illegal Iraq war? Heck, Russia has invaded another country and the response is weak, at best.

Face it, when a great power does bad things, very few can oppose them, internally or externally. Consequences will be limited. They know it, and that's why they keep doing it and getting away with it.

The UN can't do anything because it can only work if everyone is there, at the table, and of course the big bad guys and their allies won't want to sanction themselves. The UN is the best possible realistic version.

All that aside, the ongoing genocide in Tigray is a real problem that needs to be stopped. Whatabouting won't help the people there.
I don't think that's true.

We had abusive neighbours who damaged our belongings before so we essentially had to install a CCTV system. They were coax cameras hooked up to a DVR with no internet functionality (and that data had to be overridden regularly due to the size of the disk).

At the end of the day, if you're under threat of damage to your things, I would recommend a CCTV system. You won't see me recommending Amazon's offerings (or any other "cloud" solution rolls eyes), though.
As Italian I really suggest to buy a Kamira (https://www.espressokamira.net/) if you want to make espresso at home without an automatic cofee machine.
Coffee made with moka is great, but it's a little different from the espresso.
With Kamira, you can have espresso with the simplicity and portability of a moka.

I thought it would be clear — I am talking about the push for people who already got immunity to the virus from beating a serious case, to get vaccinated. While there are still tons of people who need the vaccine, they are pushing everyone indiscriminately in many cities like NYC and not allowing people into establishments unless they had been vaccinated. But in Austria they are looking to simply force everyone to get it.

Some filesystems handle lots of small files gracefully and some don't. Git and ext4 have come a long way but some programs are going to have a hard time once you get that many files in one folder.

Forced cultural assimilation is also a type of genocide, according to the official definition:

https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/genocide.shtml
You can get burned coffee because the same container you use to heat the water to make the steam also holds the coffee and that still heats up. If you start with cold water that's more time for the coffee grinds to heat up and if you don't take it off the stove when it's done and cool it down right away that's time for the brewed coffee to start to burn as it's sitting in a heated hot pot.

Most other methods don't have you heat the coffee and the water together so you can only really burn it if you put it on a heating element after.
