Yes. I had a last gen (2014 Mazda 3) and traded it in for a current gen (2021 Mazda 3) earlier this year. On last gen models they do have touch screen, but the touch part is auto disabled when the speed is above a low threshold (5 or 10 mph). In the current gen they just removed touch part completely.

With the last gen I only barely used the touch function in the pre-Android-Auto days, to help put the address to its builtin navigation system faster. Later they provided the optional upgrade of Android Auto (for $500) and I don't think I ever used the touch feature after the upgrade. In the current gen Android Auto is standard configuration and I never missed touching.

Besides the removal of touching, they also have some other small but useful improvements on the screen on the current gen that I really appreciate:

1. They made the screen wider in the current gen, so with Android Auto you can have 2 apps displaying at the same time, usually maps and music, with one horizontal and one vertical.

2. They made the screen slightly slanted towards the driver in the current gen.

Another thing I think most people don't realize is that the design around non-touch screen could mean that the screen can be placed to a better position. When the screen is touchable, it has to be within arms reach, which usually means it has to been lower, and the driver has to look down when they need some info from the screen. The current gen Mazda move it upper, so the driver only need to roll their eyes slightly to see it.
With LaTeX, the document creator must compile the document, through a fairly persnickety processor (latex, tetex, or an equivalent). Whilst that may still pass poorly-structured documents and result in poorly-formed output, straight-up illegal syntax won't make.

HTML has no such requirements. There's absolutely nothing stopping you from posting that in the first place. Throw something at a browser, and it will try its damndest to ingest it --- that's the "runtime compiled" element of the Web.

(It's not a perfect analogy to software compilation, though it can get surprisingly close.)

Essentially: the Web lacks any editor role. That's long been touted as a benefit. At scale, however, and over time ... it becomes problematic.

Moreover, the commercial Web has a selection process and corresponding evolutionary path which has come to be seen as less than optimal for those seeking high-value, high-relevance content. It is in fact hostile to such content, on multiple bases.

Again, LaTeX alone won't fix these problems. It addresses a few issues of structure. The concept of a post-authoring compliation state (ironically itself somewhat present in many web content-management systems, but not oriented around the document or content itself for the most part, but rather branding, advertising, and surveillance instrumenting) is also somewhat attractive but ... problematic. A discovery-mechanism scoring penalty might help (and Google's certainly applied that in other areas).
Price doesn't have to be the gatekeeper. That is an artificial division that leaves out hard working individuals who happen to be making money for someone else rather than themselves (among others). (Also "Get a better job," only goes so far.) What they could do, is, idunno, set a capacity limit based on experience of users and develop changes for their users and not just their pocket books.
What would sane defaults for css be?
They just need to build more parks. I typically have a better time at Six Flags because they're regional. They're smaller sure, but they're cheaper, easier to get to, and less overwhelming.

Disney actually tried this approach in the 90's with the DisneyQuest VR parks, but it was too early for the technology at the time.
Prefer, perhaps, but do they increase incidence of distracted driving? That's really the only metric that matters.
Well it was clearly meant to imply that the reason we are using it is merely tradition, and that there was a reason a long time ago that no longer applies.
Neither are native first-class elements of plain HTML.
Did you heard of this book, Pain Free at Your PC? For me it's hard put into practice because of the time demand, but exercises and reasoning is quite good.
I have a 2015 Ford Explorer with CarPlay. Does CarPlay just stink or is it fords bad implementation? Siri only works sometimes. The radio.com (or audacy or whatever it’s named now) only works 20% of the time. Waze constantly has rendering problems. It’s a giant mess. But much better than sync3 which honestly may be worse than nothing.
I'm a french canadian and I've never in my life heard someone use "septante/octante/nonante". I understand the difficulty while learning French but, as a native speaker, we don't even think about it.
Totally. Sets and props and costumes don't necessarily add anything. Go to a theatre festival like the Edinburgh Festival and you can see dozens of amazing productions with amazing talent acting out of a broom closet, wearing the clothes they fell out of bed in that morning.
I like your setup. It's important to point out to users that there is no such thing as "safe" in the absolute sense, only degrees of safety.

I think that a combination of what you're already doing and living a few releases behind the latest is about as safe as we should hope for on our personal machines.
You best start believing in absurdities- you’re in one!
Cats are not "clean" after they lick themselves, if anything this behavior is primarily responsible for the cultivation of a parasite lifecycle that has co-evolved to the cat's gut.

Cats, especially ones who share litter boxes, routinely get covered in potentially parasite-bearing feces via litter boxes and ingest it via grooming. This allows for easy additional spread/cross infection.

"Cats lick themselves, therefore they are clean" is a long-discredited but persistent myth.
Good point. A problem that is mitigated if you are herbivorous, and chomp all day a lot of grass and other things that contain calcium, like goose do. Aquatic birds can deal or at least understand the concept of extreme conditions in water. You will not see a flamingo dissolving, and they live in extreme alkaline waters. They know were is time to go.

In any case there are several solutions that would put an end to the problem or alleviate a lot it at least. Is a question of money, but also of will.

If there are a lot of birds dying in your pool, maybe you should admit that the water is not only acidic but also poisonous and that they are desperate for the lack of suitable habitats. Solution, just build a second damned pool close and keep it clean and full of shrubs, reeds and plants. As long as birds can choose to stand or fly and feel safe, they would favor the correct pond.

Or even better, fix your water in the main pond.
Most people I know (from various Romand cantons) actually use both a bit randomly, I assume due to the strong French influence. What's funny is that they don't realise it until you point it out.

Octante as far as I know has been dead for a while and is not used anywhere, in Switzerland or elsewhere.
To provide a single data point, here[0] is an article about one such study. "EU study finds piracy doesn’t hurt game sales, may actually help. Results suggest a positive effect, but there's a huge margin of error."

Proof-of-stake is the closest thing to centralization there is in cryptocurrency.
I suspect that the German way of speaking comes directly from arabic and the fact that we have adopted the whole numbering scheme, digits as well the name for 'digit' (ziffer) sounds like 'zero' which is the key innovation of the number scheme.
To me this sounds like good old Disneyland, plus an app. I grew up a few miles down the street in the '70s. It was routinely as crowded then as the author is describing now, with hours to get on the Matterhorn, Pirates, Haunted House, Tom Sawyers Island. Hours to get a couple of pancakes at a restaurant. We'd ride the spinning teacups over and over just because the line was shorter. The "magical" trips were on the special events, like the yearly high school graduation days, with relatively few people and we could ride the best rides until we got sick of them. Back then the best rides were rationed by E tickets, which sort of entered the language. Those coupon packs sure felt expensive. I wonder if the prices haven't just kept up with inflation.
Lol before making your rant, you should know they don't shoot the animals, the shoot near them to scare them away.
Just start the phone tour from the Instagram support line. ”My son was abducted by sharks, and I need to dial my wife. Which of her phones did she use for her Instagram?”

Again, the kindness, compassion and flexibility of humans is the weak link in security.

I bet that’s why Google has all but eliminated the support staff!
We went to DisneyWorld for a company trip one year (back in the late 90s). Every single interaction, I thought “holy cow, they could be charging so much more here! Why is this so cheap?!”

Going back later with kids in the last 10 years, they’ve clearly corrected a lot of their prior underpricing, but it still felt like a generally okay value.
Each time this old article is rolled out I agree with it less.

The relational object mapping problem has some essential difficulty but it has been so many rounds of iteration that today’s answers are much better than those in the past, particularly when you give up on the assumption that OO is greater than relational and turn the problem inside out the way JooQ does.
Wow, this confuses the hell out of me and I will have to think about it. I describe my self as definitely not having aphantasia because...basically I can do what you describe.

I can also visualize real things to a degree, but it's kind of like when you see something in the corner of your eye, the brain has some visual info that makes it to your experience, but it isn't super legible. I can visualize pretty much whatever to that extent. But it is the other stuff, what you were describing, that made me totally sure I couldn't possibly have aphantasia. That's the visualizing I'm actually really good at.

Edit: Also, what is the difference between mentally seeing something and having the feeling of having mentally seen it? How are these not the same thing?
Most of the piracy sites are super scummy. I can see the appeal in trying to shut them down. I've always wondered how the economics of those setups that push you through a half dozen link shorteners / ad pages with captchas all over the place work. I bet there's ad fraud going on with the captchas being solved for bots that are doing less than respectable things.

Look at Kim Dotcom / Mega Upload for an example of who the big winners are in the piracy space. Some of it is big business, so it's easy to see the lawyers' side. I'd still consider myself pro piracy because it creates a floor in terms of how bad big companies can treat us, but there are some participants that deserve to be chased by lawyers.
Completely share your view 100% so that makes 2 of us.
Considering we just had Thanksgiving and I love it with pumpkin pie, whipped cream cans!
Why not NodeBB, Vanilla, Flarum? Etc.

> Drivers ages 16-17 continue to have the highest rates of crash involvement, injuries to themselves and others and deaths of others in crashes in which they are involved. Drivers age 80 and older have the highest rates of driver deaths. Drivers ages 60-69 were the safest drivers by most measures examined.

edit: tangentially, physical controls of newer BMW are badly placed as well.
It would certainly be a challenge but there are examples of cross platform applications that have succeeded in the market. The Godot game engine is a good one since it does a similar thing for a different segment of the market. It's cross platform and allows you to build applications that target those platforms and more (even the web!). So these things are within the reach of a small team, or even a single dedicated individual. The important thing is to focus on what matters. Providing a safe environment to run code downloaded from strangers, a set of configurable UI elements and an API for making network and storage requests. You're basically building a VM with a UI kit and some networking. You could probably bootstrap up from something simple since it would likely be a fun platform to target for hobbyists, if you could build a community or scene around it.
Food was whatever for most part... Their turkey leg is good.

Portion size, my wife and I generally shared meals... And surprised that many people could eat alot of the meals to themselves
This seems like the "It's so crowded nobody goes there" thing. If prices were too high and the experience was not-quite-miserable, wouldn't it be less crowded? It also seems like the author remembers the place as being less expensive when they were a child, but they aren't accounting for inflation and their childhood memory was only of admissions whereas in the present they account for parking and food and possibly other costs.
I think it's totally worth to try it. While I will be coming back soon, I am happy that I was able to have this experience. Good luck!
So how do you actually enforce that capacity limit? Take reservations at the current price levels and the parks will just end up pre-booked for the next decade within the month.
That's one reason I think Urbit's implementation is cool. The network hierarchy is explicit, but the minimum required in order to to have the maximum decentralization possible that can actually work (automatic lookup of p2p ids, ability to update the network/smart contracts, ability for other nodes to fork if it was necessary, etc.).
I've never had to deal with bank fees when getting paid.
Living higher up in the stack, there’s a bit of this I don’t really understand, but I’d like to. Can someone explain what’s going on here with a bit more information/explanation of these techniques?
If you'd read the article till the end, perhaps you'd understand where the author is coming from: PoS systems aren't getting hacked today because they aren't truly decentralised. You can't have decentralisation and security with POS, you have to choose one of these. All the projects currently active have chosen security for obvious reasons - they control the majority of validators to make sure nobody steals, and are just fancy centralised mints.
Musicians, too.

Father sir, but do not be so harsh!
If I couldn't, three times a day,
be allowed to drink my little cup of coffee,
in my anguish I will turn into
a shriveled-up roast goat.

Ah! How sweet coffee tastes,
more delicious than a thousand kisses,
milder than muscatel wine.
Coffee, I have to have coffee,
and, if someone wants to pamper me,
ah, then bring me coffee as a gift!

Which only raises the price of exploiting the analog hole by a relatively small amount -- it is not hard to buy better audio recording equipment to record the audio as it is being played, and the postprocessing needed to make it sound like the original is not very complex. A few thousand dollars (maybe low tens of thousands) wuold be enough to get you a rig that records a high-def movie with little noticeable loss, and anecdotally I have heard of such systems being used to rip TV shows as they air.

> Just because OneDrive is pre-installed

OneDrive isn't just pre-installed, it's somewhat (aggressively, even?) marketed from within Windows. For example, even if you aren't using OneDrive you cannot remove or hide the OneDrive icons in the Explorer folder tree (not without registry tweaks).
… and with all the premium opportunities with fast passes etc, they’re profit per ticket must be huge.

They know how to price, and they know stories drive attendance.
That's a fair criticism. I always rewrite & revise the important notes as I go forward, so I never end up looking back. I can imagine that it is super frustrating to find things that aren't near the end or on a known page number -- their page scrolling functionality is clunky to say the least.

What could be nice, and not require user input, is detect whether the user has dark mode enabled, and then use that as an input variable.
That group has always had the highest rate of crash involvement, even before touchscreens in cars were a thing.

I don't find a butthurt, thinly veiled anticapitalist rant about known quantities and easily accessible numbers, by written by someone who enjoys a mountain of privilege, to be particularly interesting or compelling.

Things are more expensive than they were in our youth. Entertainment destinations are expensive. The privileged class can afford them. These things are not new.
but you can adhere to legal requirements and go through all the code and test reviews and still have live update capability. i don't see why they are exclusive. moreover, there are scenarios where taking the system off-line for an update would cause a critical failure
The "secret VIP" he mentions in the article is called VIP Tours, which cost at least $425 per hour for a minimum of 7 hours. They're the only reliable way to skip the line. So there is a pay-a-lot-for-the-best-experience tier.

Much like nightclub VIP, however, you can also bring nine other people with you, which brings the total cost down to under $300 per person for the whole day. Probably the best way to do Disney, if you can get a large enough group together.
The truth about turbinates (and sinusitis)
You could make the argument that Disneyland is designed to be a loss-leader, and there's no reason for the parks to reach a price equilibrium per se. In its original formulations, the parks are one link in a much larger business model [1].

It's not about saving humanity or saving consciousness or all that BS.

It's about a very selfish 1st world problem:

Seeking thrill and also not to be discounted the willingness to feel special. Everyday we see and interact with so many people, we have also internalized the concept of being one unit in a 8B sample and that hurts our ego as we want to feel unique and irreplacable.

People hope to find that in a small Mars community, feeling irreplaceable both on a conceptual level as well as a practical level (meaning for the operation of the colony).
I've read this story a few times before but never found any photos of the event until this article.
But that's also true for PoW as you can use hardware which after an attack you can use for other things.
Copyright is as much a "right" as mineral rights are a "right." It is just a system for regulating a particular industry. Don't make the mistake of thinking that all "rights" are "natural rights."

Reminds me of Dutch people taking their own food to Disneyland Paris.

The most famous Dutch theme park even has a picknick field but it made American heads explode in rage.
huh, kind of weird seeing notch have a trans flag as an avatar given his politics these days

He is also a very skilled SPPer which he will frequently demonstrate. He mentioned in the video the reason he uses so many low skill attacks is because they work so well on locks people *care* about.
The Algorand PoS consensus protocol assumes that honest nodes use so-called "ephemeral keys" (see Section 5.2 of the white paper). This implies they are supposed to "forget" part of their past state. A malicious node could choose not to forget their past state, thus making double-spend a possibility (assuming an adversary with majority of stake).

Therefore, the formal proof of security provided in the Algorand white paper does not resolve the nothing-at-stake problem, which is inherent to all PoS systems.
The Dutch get numbers “backwards,” too. My poor daughter makes mistakes with writing numerals all the time. Like, writing “27” for twee­ën­zeventig. Sigh. She will learn eventually. I’m sure the mental challenge just makes people strong here, like the bicycling in the freezing rain.
Most investors don’t care at all and blow off things like “the blockchain you’re using requires this fully centralized component”, but many players in the ecosystem that enable the speculation we see now, do care about protocol safety. If the Ethereum protocol was shown to be unsafe, they’d publicly promote safer alternatives and push their users to move.
Still, the question remains. Why don’t many/most/all?
I mean, should I write very long comments now packed into a single line? That's silly.
This is not true, see my reply to your sibling comment for a more detailed answer. Toxoplasmosis is highly correlated with severe mental disorders like schizophrenia.
Function approximation was always useful (e.g. autopilots, speech recognition, compression, etc.), the question was what one could do with such a trick when it was scaled up. What is the analog for cryptocurrencies? What is the underlying technology in cryptocurrencies that can be scaled up to make them useful like with function approximation?
How would you support multiple screen resolutions or even resizing windows with precompiled layouting?

If layouting (an computationally expensive step) is done at "run-time" what would precompiled even mean?
My favourite SR-71 story involves asking ATC for clearance for FL600. ATC gives clearance with some skepticism, since most planes can't climb that high... only to be informed that the SR-71 would be descending to FL600.
> Screen recording and IDE at the same time?

If I’m presenting some code, I’d prefer to do it in a familiar environment (i.e. my IDE of choice) — so that I don't get lost, so that I know the keyboard shortcuts, and don’t add more stress and fumbling to the presentation. Also, everyone on my team uses IntelliJ IDEA, so presenting with Code might add more confusion or might make it impossible to show IDEA-specific stuff (eg. run configurations or the debugger).
Random fact of the day: The currently best known upper bound for the complexity of the Union-Find algorithm is the reverse Ackermann function, which can be treated as a constant (4) for all remotely practical (and most of the impractical) values of n.

> They’re the reason for the sorry state of copyright laws

Blaming lawyers for the state of copyright laws is doing a huge service to the legislators that pass them and the lobbyists who write them.
