A surprising number of people I've known who lived in SF proper owned handguns, fully aware of the legal ramifications. They were mostly well-off tech people, and didn't care about the legal risk any more than they obeyed speed limits.

As always, there's laws, and then there's enforcement of those laws.

You're completely delusional if you believe nobody in SF has guns at home because the law says so. Ask yourself how on earth such a thing would be enforced without police searching everyones' homes on a regular basis.

My connections to the city have waned in the past decade or so, during which it sounds crime has only worsened. I'd assume there's even more gun ownership in response to what seems to be a police force unwilling to enforce laws and a continuous stream of growing area crime reported in the news.

Out by me which is rural desert CA there's just guns all over the place. Technically it's illegal to fire anything other than a scattershot round in a shotgun openly around here (Morongo Basin), yet on any given weekend you'll hear all sorts of semi-auto and even full-auto shooting without any police response.

No, I didn't. I said execs are replaceable...and they are. If you replace Tim Cook with a ham sandwich, it will make no difference to AAPL at all. It is very rare (I have never seen it) where the SP will fall because of a CEO leaving, it is more common for it to rise when a CEO leaves.

Again, it is important to realise too...there are probably no other CEOs that have made as much as Tim Cook. Even amongst execs, he is wildly wildly wildly overpaid. Corporate governance at AAPL is basically non-existent.
It has been out for 15 years though?
I've been working with CSS for over twenty years, and Tailwind is the way forward for me. Some of the big benefits are:

* No more worrying about naming class selectors. This frees up so much cognitive space. The less you have to worry about naming the better. I used the SUIT CSS naming convention before, which allows a mix, and that just creates friction. You need the same level of abstraction all the way through.

* No more flipping between files. You edit your styles directly in the HTML. You will need to consult the TW docs, of course, but they're easy to navigate.

* Tailwind is more than just inline styles. It provides a nice syntax for targeting breakpoints and little utilities for conveying more abstract styles/stacking rules.

* TailwindUI is a great way to jumpstart a project and looks way better (IMO) than Bootstrap's components.

* JIT is awesome

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention some cons:

* Looking at a bunch of class names in your HTML is at overwhelming at first. It's hard to delineate the structure. Using proper HTML elements, roles, etc. helps.

* You will need to DRY up your repetitive styles by moving things to templates/components. So you still have to name things, but just keep it generic (alert, dropdown, badge, etc)

* Sometimes you'll have to create class selectors when working with web frameworks and JS libs that require a single class selector option.
.button is the default
.button-context is the context version

className={isContext ? ".button--context" : ".button"}

alternatively if you want many unrelated base rules that aren't color/padding as a baseline:

.button contains base rules
.button--default default color/padding
.button--context contextful color/padding

className={`.button ${isContext ? ".button--context" : ".button--default"}`}

And yet… the gold standard for demonstrating that a proof has no “bugs” is to execute it within a proof assistant.

> I would have preferred an IPv4 version 2, and extension to the address space of IPv4, possibly in a backward compatible way, so that applications, routers and equipment not built for the new protocol can continue to work, of course considering only a part of the address (e.g. if the network passes trough some old routers, it's not a problem since they only have to look at the most significant part of the address that is in the same place of the IPv4 address) and can ignore the extension.

This gets suggested all the time, but it's a fundamentally broken idea that could never work. What happens when one router uses the "extension" and the next one doesn't? You get a routing loop, so your packets get dropped. This would happen approximately 100% of the time when using this kind of "extension".

> And if you have to choose between two, you will choose the easier one, or the one you know, that is IPv4. A simple extension would have been far more easier to rollout.

Lol no it wouldn't. If you think people are dragging their feet on IPv6, that's nothing to how long it takes them to roll out an "extension" that's even less visible.

A trained medico will doubtless correct me so as a non medico I think you're right and I believe in early screening and have my 60yo bloods and bowel/poo scanning done regularly. That be said, young women are very likely to be misdiagnosed for things like cancer because being physically fit and menstruating can give heaps of non cancer originated reasons for being tired, in pain which do not stem from cancer. Misdiagnosed endometriosis comes to mind as a similar diagnostic problem: obvious once you get inside, often missed.

With early cancer blood screening I believe the problem remains its far more likely to be a false positive than a false negative. Doctors have to work from a range of signals to a range of causes which may co present or be false flags. The ones which miss are like aircraft flight failure "holes in the cheesegrater lined up" series of unfortunate consequences to diagnosis lead to missing things.

Elizabeth Holmes didn't do us any favours either.

I love Tailwind! It elegantly solves most pain points in writing CSS. However, it does this at the cost of readability, and you can easily end up with HTML that looks like this:

<div class="w-16 h-16 px-2 py-1 m-1 text-sm text-white bg-black rounded md:w-32 md:h-32 md:rounded-md md:text-base lg:w-48 lg:h-48 lg:rounded-lg lg:text-lg focus:bg-red-400 focus:rounded-md hover:bg-yellow-200 hover:rounded-t-md md:focus:rounded-xl md:focus:text-lg lg:focus:rounded-xl lg:focus:text-xl md:hover:rounded-xl lg:hover:rounded-xl">Yikes!</div>

I would love to have a transpiler that produces the line above from a code like this:

<div
class="w-16 h-16 px-2 py-1 m-1 text-sm text-white bg-black rounded"
md="w-32 h-32 rounded-md text-base hover:rounded-xl"
md-focus="rounded-xl text-lg"
lg="w-48 h-48 rounded-lg text-lg hover:rounded-xl"
lg-focus="rounded-xl text-xl"
focus="bg-red-400 rounded-md"
hover="bg-yellow-200 rounded-t-md">Yeah!</div>
Glad to see this mentioned.

In the context of component based development, react etc., I believe what you describe is actually very beneficial. Think about a case where instead of doing something <button class="btn btn-primary"> you write an atomic component <MyButton> which uses tailwind internally.

With this workflow:

* There are no global styles that can have an unknown or unexpected impact on the application when modified.

* The component's style is completely encapsulated. It can be placed anywhere in the application without worrying about inherited styles causing problems.

So can we agree, houses built with 2 layers of dry wall and an air core will have more sound deadening than a house built with concrete walls?

And that the original posters tale of "superior sound insulation" in a house with concrete walls is likely due to factors other than the concrete walls?
IMHO it's really about "those who give up freedom for security deserve neither", as that classic saying goes[1]. The excuse of "security" has been used throughout time to take away personal freedoms, and with Google (and some of the other authoritarian parts of the industry) pushing very hard in one direction especially within the past few years, it's about time we started pushing much harder in the other. Indeed, good enough is good enough.

This. I feel this so much. I need a machine that works for work, and not something that I need, as you said, needs 37 open tabs to figure out the WiFi situtaion. I had a Dell 5558 before this, an absolute unit of a machine that worked so well with Ubuntu. The only issue I had with it was on days when I felt daring and tried to hack different versions of CUDA on it. Otherwise, it was a solid machine that I've now turned into a Linux box for my home setup.
When did AWS lie? On their status page? That's the last place to receive updates on service status. It sucks but it's also common knowledge. I'll give you a little insider knowledge: The SHD is updated manually. If it's any consolation, GCP does the exact same thing.

I saw notifications in the AWS Personal Health Dashboard pretty very early into the issue. Did you see something different?

Also, I've seen issues logging into the default console a lot, so I keep one of the backup endpoints bookmarked. Might come in handy for you too!

World Uyghur Congress is funded by National Endowment for Democracy or NED of the United States.

National Endowment for Democracy or NED of the United States: The NED was set up in the early 1980s under President Reagan in the wake of all the negative revelations about the CIA in the second half of the 1970s.

The idea was that the NED would do somewhat overtly what the CIA had been doing covertly for decades, and thus, hopefully, eliminate the stigma associated with CIA covert activities.

I’ve lived here (SF)for almost 20yrs and I have yet to see anyone open carry here unless they’re trying to make some political statement. Sure it could be that I just don’t see all the people that are carrying concealed but I do think there is much less of a gun carry culture here. As for ownership I know of one neighbor that has guns. I’m sure there are probably more but I imagine they’re kept mainly for recreational not defensive purposes much like how people kept guns in the small town I grew up in in Oregon before the whole “patriotic” gun toter culture became a thing.

I don’t think the arrow of causation flows from career to cause of death. More likely both have a similar root cause.
Currently RIPE costs maybe €35M per year to run and does maybe 5000 transfers per year.

So, not billions of dollars. The exact scheme has not been determined, the proposal sketched was that a /24 would cost maybe €5000 in 2023. Maybe they do 4000 of those, that's €20M.

The rationale is, industry consolidation means that per-LIR fees either need to increase substantially over the next decade (unfriendly to small members, forcing further consolidation) or a new fee mechanism is needed. Understandably members who scarcely need RIPE services because they have a perfectly nice IPv6 block are frustrated to see that members paying the same annual fee incur significant staff time (meaning more FTE cost) because their stupid IPv4 renumbering changes mean paperwork. So, why not make that cost money?

As someone who uses advanced autopilots very regularly, I can inform you that there is no intelligence. Even the best APs use only very basic feedback loops, which are tuned by the aircraft designers and fixed. Their behaviour is not modified by any smart overarching control.

A "good" three axis autopilot consists of 3 quite independent systems. One controls pitch/altitude using a feedback loop very similar to an old-style car cruise control (no traffic sensing here :). A second system controls heading, similarly simplistic. And a third controls yaw, even simpler. There might be an auto-throttle, almost identical in function to conventional cruise control. There might be some useful variations (eg VS and FLC modes) - all very useful but there are NO SMARTS HERE.

Modern systems have edge-case handling (triggered by too-slow, excess load, or anything going outside the normal operational envelope). The AP handles such cases by going "beep" and turning itself off - just handing over to the pilot!

The post I was responding to makes the distinction between things we can't create more of (land) and things we can (paintings). I used scarcity as an (erroneous) proxy for this distinction, even though obviously there are scarce things that we can create more of.

> Land is quite unique. It is the resource with the weakest argument that humans produce it.

I mean, not really. What about water or oxygen? What about carbon taxes insofar as they're related to the inherent value of the earth's climate? There are plenty of resources that don't require any human effort to produce, but that doesn't make them better suited to taxation. It just seems like an entirely arbitrary distinction to make.
I finally got into Tailwind a few months ago after originally HATING the paradigm shift, but it's started to grow on me -- especially since most of the modern "material design" CSS libraries are starting to show their age and Tailwind fills a similar throw-together-something-beautiful-fast niche.

This comes at particularly nice timing with Rails 7 releasing at the end of the month. I can't wait to pair the two and see how well the new features of each work together.

The problem with this analogy is that it takes only one to stop tangoing. It takes two to stop fighting. Curling up in a fetal position doesn't end the fight; and it rewards the party who keeps fighting until they are satisfied.

If a rapist assaults someone, that person can perhaps bring the violence to a more rapid end by yielding to the rapist, but we don't hold the two parties equally at fault. We don't tell the victim, "It takes two to tango." I am not saying these are perfectly parallel situations. I am trying to get you to see how your account is simplistic.

Look at how long it took ISPs to turn off Usenet. I'm sure they'll keep running DS-Lite for decades to come, but they'll gradually allocate less and less resources to it, maybe put clauses in peering agreements that they pay less to upstreams who are IPv4-only. And then eventually IPv4 will become an optional extra, and then outsourced to one of a handful of firms still handling it...
Not sure I understand what point you're trying to make, but when I "go mobile" I am typically leaving behind my monitor, my wired keyboard and mouse/trackpad, my backup drive, and most of the other shit I might have daisychained off a USB hub. So I actually see it as an incredible convenience that I can run all of that, plus charging, plus wired networking, off a single USB-C port.

It feels far more "mobile" than a setup where I need to plug/unplug all that stuff into the body of the laptop whenever I want to use my laptop away from my desk.

That is so completely bass-ackwards it’s not even comprehensible. If the router knows you’re trying to connect to a malicious site, it should block your access to that site. Taking action against your device in this scenario doesn’t serve any purpose at all. I’m going to assume that this router is incredibly misconfigured, and that’s not a default behavior.

In the App MANIFEST. To my understanding, each update of those lists will require an app update (going through Store approval process).

If only it would have been dynamic, the end result would have been much better.

And again, there is no reason to disable dynamic updates if they are only lists of blocked URLs.
The next sentence addresses that:
"Then anytime an above average player gets on the machine, he’s getting free games all day long."

Since the replay score is set based on the top percentage of scores, if the majority of players in the movie theater (novices) lower the average score, a good player (wizard) is more easily at the high end of the score distribution, earning free plays consistently.
How does this contend with other optimal stopping problems? I just started reading 'Algorithms to Live By' and the very first chapter talks about the 37% rule [1], which feels similar. According to The Dating Problem [2] I should reject the first 37 candidates (when N=100 like in OP's example)

So do I reject the first 9 or 37 candidates?
