Not one trait above speaks to respecting the actual employee, only what you can get from them. It's a two way street, you want a "perfect employee?" then you better be a "perfect employer" and I'm not sure I see that above.

I think of a perfect employee is one that is:

- paid well

- treated humanely and respectfully

- not considered a cog in a machine bound to arbitrary metrics or impossible-to-meet metrics

- is offered room to grow intellectually

- not asked to create products that harm society in the name of profit

- can create their own side work

- have a reasonable work life balance

- can express opinions freely

- retain privacy and dignity

And a host of other characteristics not mentioned in your company-focused, human minimized description above.
One issue is I don’t think software like PowerPoint or Keynote can output to a DeckLink or similar. A quick Google search indicates you need to use ProPresenter, which is a big change for someone who just wants to display PowerPoint slides.

So a teenager is allowed to drive a vehicle that weighs over a ton 30km/h without a drivers license, but their e-bike assist will max out at 25km/h because it would be otherwise unsafe. Regulations are nonsensical.
Microsoft has the best bounty hunter program: go fuck yourself.

If you find a way to take over MS accounts, or force email swaps, or even gamertag shanaigans, there is too much money to be made, there is not even a point for a bug bounty.

It's like a $40 reward for returning a purse filled with $250k.

I agree with OP: no more free bugs.
IMHO this is a very good intuitive intro to transformers by Peter Bloem. It does a great job of starting with basic intuition and gradually adding in complexity. Once you read it you’ll have a good mental picture of how self attention works. Blogs allow this type of informal, relaxed style of explanation that academic papers can’t afford (page number submission limits etc )

It's 鄒忌諷齊王納諫 (Zou Ji use his satirical admonishment to King of Qi).

It happened during the Warring States period (475 BC - 221 BC). The culture was very different compared to later imperial dynasties. It's more like medieval Europe - consisting of a lot of feudal states rather than being a powerful empire. Ethics drastically varies from person to person, where we can find people truly living with their virtue, and people most cunning.

Original names in case anyone was curious:
Mr.Lao -> Zou Ji
Mr.Hsu -> Duke Xu
King -> King Might of Qi

- Force long-term contracts to be tied to spot prices instead of oil.

- Do not fill storage assuming lower prices in autumn.

- Intentionally delay certification of a pipeline from one of your main suppliers.

- Act very surprised when the aforementioned supplier does nothing to stop spot prices explosion due to the external circumstances and even fans the flames a bit.

- Make questionable remarks which accelerate the rise of gas prices even further.

- Demand (sic!) from the supplier additional gas not covered by existing contracts, even though it's clearly not in his interest.

I wonder why does the EU has gas supply issues?

I'm still skeptical about the whole Fibonacci thing like why but that's my opinion.

For our team we story point things together after discussing the task and asking questions.

About the scope thing... Mention it or at least do the actual main story first then clean it up if you have time. There is always the code review part to get feedback on how to write it better.

Beauty may also be personal bias.
Well, theoretically, instantly. But that’s kind of like asking what if I had this potion that instantly cured every disease known to man and then some, what would happen. What sort of quantum computer are you talking about? How many qubits?
If the authors of this story would like to help out Mr Markovich, perhaps they should write an article that gets to the point.
Hinkley Point C another EPR is right in that range with the fixed strike price being paid by the consumers at £106 per MWh, or $0.140 per kWh. The nice thing about nuclear and average prices is that unless nuclear is ran at about 100% all the time your initial investment takes even longer to pay back, so comparing directly to a yearly average price fits their use case.

EDF has negotiated a guaranteed fixed price – a "strike price" – for electricity from Hinkley Point C of £92.50/MWh (in 2012 prices),[25][83] which will be adjusted (linked to inflation – £106/MWh by 2021[77]) during the construction period and over the subsequent 35 years tariff period. The base strike price could fall to £89.50/MWh if a new plant at Sizewell is also approved.[25][83] High consumer prices for energy will hit the poorest consumers hardest according to the Public Accounts Committee.[86]

In July 2016, the National Audit Office estimated that due to falling energy costs, the additional cost to consumers of 'future top-up payments under the proposed HPC CfD had increased from £6.1 billion in October 2013, when the strike price was agreed, to £29.7 billion'.[87][88] In July 2017, this estimate rose to £50 billion, or 'more than eight times the 2013 estimate'.[9]

The Essence of the Web
At what point does brute forcing wallet private keys become more lucrative for miners than mining? Presumably you can use almost identical hardware too.
On this topic, definitely check out the fascinating work of Michel Tomasello[1]. He's the foremost developmental and comparative psychologist. As I expected, his work is copiously cited in the papers[2][3] in the article. Tomasello did studies for over 25 years with human children and other primates on understanding what separates humans from the great apes ("joint agency" and "shared intentionality") and many other topics on developmental psychology.

• • •

In his recent book, "Becoming Human"[4], he summarizes his decades of research and proposes:

... a new framework for psychological growth between birth and seven years of age. He identifies eight pathways that starkly differentiate humans from their closest primate relatives: social cognition, communication, cultural learning, cooperative thinking, collaboration, prosociality, social norms, and moral identity. In each of these, great apes possess rudimentary abilities. But then, Tomasello argues, the maturation of humans’ evolved capacities for shared intentionality transform these abilities—through the new forms of sociocultural interaction they enable—into uniquely human cognition and sociality.

The first step occurs around nine months, with the emergence of joint intentionality, exercised mostly with caregiving adults. The second step occurs around three years, with the emergence of collective intentionality involving both authoritative adults, who convey cultural knowledge, and coequal peers, who elicit collaboration and communication. Finally, by age six or seven, children become responsible for self-regulating their beliefs and actions so that they comport with cultural norms.

Milking the market as long as it is possible sounds like another financial incentive to me. A lot of VPN providers make a dubious impression to me.
I would expect they are interested in me or don’t care. If they are interested, they routinely break all comms and notice 512. If they aren’t interested they won’t bother to break 8 bit.

I’m not interesting so not an issue for me, but I would also assume that they can break much more than this and wouldn’t actually reveal their limit in such a policy. Kind of like how your boss quadruples your time estimate. If their policy says nothing over 256, then they likely have capability for more.

But I’d expect that usually these pass phrases can be any length as they are all getting beaten out of us when needed.
Just like an ASIC miner beats every other kind of Bitcoin miner, a Quantum Miner might be so much faster than an ASIC miner that it wins every time.
Average wallet won't have much in it. On the other hand writing an article with a semi proof of this would affect the bitcoin economy, whether deservedly or not.
It's a broad topic, from where do you need to start. If you have GPS coordinates you do standard GIS queries. Then there are IP2Geo services that are widespread in the industry but those have questionable accuracy and don't work at all with cellular connections.

If you want to know how advertising work then look at the OpenRTB specification. The majority use this to communicate user information to the rest of adtech. Google has their own but also support OpenRTB if you want the inefficiency of JSON.
The oil power plant you describe runs because it makes economic sense to generate electricity from oil and send it to Germany. There is no shortage of electricity (neither energy nor effect) in Sweden. The high prices are caused by gas shortages in continental Europe.
now now, be fair: they're zeros in code too
We as a species had "affordable" housing long before we had police. I'd also like to point out that housing is often not well-maintained despite broad knowledge of the problem: see for example Greenfell Tower (London) or rue d'Aubagne (Marseille) scandals. Private property as a social structure does not ensure decent quality or affordable housing.

If you insist on private property as a means to organize housing, then it'd probably be more reasonable and efficient to redistribute ownership widely: if you make everyone owner of their current residence, you'll find they'll take better care of it overall than some remote profit-seeking landlord who couldn't care less about mold and fissures.
I don't even use a GUI. I use mpv with a wireless keyboard. There have been weird multichannel codec passthrough issues no matter what player I am using, like ... if the 5.1 signal says 'side left' then nothing comes out of my 5.1 system 'rear left'. WTF... but once they are fixed, they are fixed forever in a profile.
Mental illness is by its very definition debilitating, leaving the suffering unable to help themselves. Those battling with depression, schizophrenia, bipolar issues, addiction often lose or are on the verge of losing their jobs and friends, possessions, homes, control of their lives.

These types of issues just scream for a social safety net and free treatment for those who need it: we all pay income tax when things are good, so that there is somebody there to help us when things turn bad, even if we have no money, even if we are unable to ask for help, even if, on the heights of despair and irrationality, we staunchly reject help.

It's a telling sign of the times that, instead of talking about social solidarity, pure market driven solutions that profit by charging their patients are taken seriously in this space.
Why Google Analytics doesn't help to improve your product
If you don't mind getting your hands a little dirty, kodi is powerful and must-have software for consuming media in your home. However for the average user i might think it's a little bit overwhelming, of course this mainly depends on the wanted use.Plex might be suitable for most in that regard, emby used to be aswell though somehow they managed to fall a lot imo.

Good companion apps for kodi are KDE-Connect, bubbleupnp, UMS Server.
I found it noticeable for anything latency sensitive - conferencing, Terraform/SSH, etc.
(losing Google’s iOS hangs was extremely noticeable, of course, but that’s for a different reason)

The key thing to remember is that there’s considerable variability across different peoples’ experience. If you live in a widely spaced suburban house, you probably don’t need to worry about interference the way an apartment dweller does or even someone in a city where the neighbor’s property starts a lot closer. The layout and materials used in your house similarly have a big impact on whether your devices are operating on 5GHz close to a base station or 2.4GHz further away.

Since you have your latency sensitive devices on Ethernet, you probably are fine with an old AP. Cables are definitely better but not everyone has permission or a suitable way to run them (my house built in the 1930s did not include spare conduit).
I think the first time I encountered /clade/ was in Bruce Sterling's Shaper/Mechanist stories. "Cicada Queen" was written in 1983, but I expect that I thought he made the word up for several more years.
> Obviously, but we don't have to re-use the same definitions of some group who wrote a paper.

I’m not sure what you’re arguing here. We’re not discussing “some group who wrote a paper.” These are accepted standards worldwide, and the link is from the National Institute of Health.

> It's up to us to decide what's worse, there is no god-given criterion.

Sure. Fortunately the Pfizer trial made it easy. Every single case was mild.

It may be true that the Pfizer vaccine is effective in some way for children 5-11, but Pfizer have not proven that.

I suspect it would come down to rubber hose cryptanalytics. If caught, and forced to decrypt, what is it that you would decrypt with?

Things are banned, implicitly, only if you get caught, so I don't think this is a philosophical argument.
> ... I just gravitated back to the basics. Want to watch a movie? Navigate to it in my file manager and play it with VLC. Music? Just use Winamp 2 or Audacious.

This 100%. Mini PC's are cheap and hook to TVs just as easily.

Years back A friend who lived int he country side wanted to watch a specific Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode. I had it on my server at home and I also happened to have my Linux laptop with me. So I plug my laptop into the TV, sshfs mounted my servers video directory and played it using VLC on his big screen. Took maybe 5 minutes to setup and he was thoroughly impressed that I have "my own streaming service".

Yeah, no, fair enough. I didn't mean that people would express it in that terminology, or appreciate the distinction between paraphyly and polyphyly! What I'm trying to say is: anyone who has ever poked around in some wild vegetation (even as a kid) knows that "normal plants" vary quite a bit in their woodiness. There are little ones, and sort of stiff little ones, and then there are "shrubs". I think most people here have the nous to think at this point "wtf's a shrub?" and 'I am doubting that "shrub" is actually a real thing'. Hence, by extension, tree? They are just sort of big stiff things aren't they?
Wow! I thought this just wasn't possible without AE or Haiku. Thanks a lot for linking Glaxnimate.

Another example of "no evidence" meaning "we reject the evidence" or "we've avoided looking for evidence" is this story from 2019: "Boris Johnson falsely claims there is 'no evidence' of Russian interference in UK politics".

I'm a person who's very interested in "offline" and so was biased against this at the start, finding the main analysis that the concepts of wilderness and offline are "enmeshed" very undergrad. However I think the author brings it around to an interesting place, eg:

True disconnection, like true wilderness, is an empty goal. Whether we have shunned social media or not, the internet does not cease to exist as a driving force in the world, any more than ecological systems cease to shape our lives the minute we reach the end of the forest trail and hop back in the car.

I appreciate what the author is trying to do here and I agree that the idea of getting "all the way" offline is kind of silly, as though if I stopped reading books that would put an end to literature.

However I think there is still something quite useful about the concepts of both wilderness and offline that the author downplays, namely that wild-ness and online-ness are spectrums. Wilderness isn't just a place with fewer people, it's a place that instead contains more of the things you can't get in, say, Manhattan, like bears and woodpeckers and natural springs and exceptionally fresh air. Just so, there is something about offline that isn't just the absence of electronics, but the feeling of quiet and human solitude that online necessarily destroys.

Personally, I see no reason why the argument "most people are online and the world economy is inextricably digital" means that I can't personally log off. To the contrary, I think I appreciate being offline more now that I've spent years living online. Just so, I think I appreciate the beauty of nature and the ecosystems that ultimately sustain us more after having lived most of my live in giant cities.

Not if the bank scenario holds. There is no legal persona associated with bitcoin nor the block chain. There's also no money there. Someone else took it already.

Plex focuses on having a server component that transcodes and their “Plex Pass” service for better connectivity, enabling lightweight native players for all of your devices. This way you can watch any of your content on anything even over cellular, even if it’s a weird format that the device wouldn’t easily support.

This is a departure from the traditional XBMC-on-device that also acts as the client trying to play any format of content.

Kodi is amazing and I’d use it if it weren’t for the fact that I don’t want a new interface, I simply want my “owned” content to show up as Yet Another App on my stream boxes and phones. Plex fits that bill.
In this case there was moratorium. By my fair understanding is that at first point when rent was late, the process should have been able to be started. And then the moment the moratorium ended it should be absolutely possible to throw out the property thieves. After all they have had very very very long time to find alternate housing.
That sounds incredibly rough.

But as a simple counterpoint to this, I'm getting a lot out of therapy, as are most of my friends who are in therapy. It's not doing what I thought it would - it hasn't fixed my depression overnight, or cured my irritability - but it's providing a different framework to think about the world and relate to people, and I like who I am an awful lot more than I like the person I was.

It's expensive for me, at 60 bucks a session on a not-particularly-high wage, and I regularly revisit the idea of stopping, but I think I'm still getting something useful and insightful out of most appointments, so I'm keeping on going.
> You get a year, maybe two, and then it becomes public domain to anyone that will use it.

Sounds like a reasonable policy, yet there's a loophole. What would prevent owners from trading on paper their goods so that they can remain empty under a different name? Or from lending a huge space to a single person so that the space isn't technically empty although it could house 10-100 times as many people?

> People are literally born homeless.

Love that argument. I've never seen it that way before, but that makes perfect sense!
Is there a reason not to jack up the bit count significantly just in case?

Or put differently would 10x even have a noticeable performance / UI wise hit?
> There are perfectly legitimate use case (in a tiny niche area) for non-cryptographic RNGs - however, three points:

no, crypto IS the niche area. The vast majority of random code in existence has absolutely nothing to do with crypto. It's cryptographic use-cases which should be marked specifically.
Thanks for the insight. BTW how many years of experience do you have?
They could simply set up surveillance cameras to watch all the people who can see any billboards with orange dots. Problem solved!
"UI Development" is not gate keeper of great UX. If you want great UX invest in professional UX designers.

If you want great house to live in, hire an architect, not civil engineers.

[Edit]

After hiring UX designers, listen to them, fund them (enough dev bandwidth to realize the design proposals), do not triage away "nice to fix" UI bugs.

That is, change the engg' mindset.

My fiancé is a licensed therapist and is quick to elaborate on the myriad ways that BetterHelp is an absolutely terrible company, for client and therapist alike.

I also used it for a couple months a few years ago and gained nothing from it. Seeing an “actual” therapist afterwards made the differences in quality of treatment immediately obvious.
I think you are missing something. If you have a wallet with very little or no money attached to it. And the you check for the correspoinding private key. If you find it - you "know" it works and then _might_ be inclined to try the key for a more serious wallet. But if not, then you know this site doesn't work and would have no inclination to try another key. If you enter important passwords or keys into random websites then this isn't about incentive but mere stupidity.

It is generally held that "Defect" is not the optimal strategy in the Prisoner's dilemma, and that seems to be what you're arguing for here, or something analagous to it.

For solar you would have to build something like 100x or more overcapacity to get enough power for winter in Finland. Solar is effectively useless in Finland as it produces effectively nothing when we need it most (winter).

Wind can work but also partially has the same problem but to the same extent. Usually the colder it gets the less windy it gets. Basically in Finland during the winter it gets cold when there is no wind bringing warm air from the Atlantic (gulf stream) usually as a result of a high pressure zone parking itself over the country.
Possibly because I am interested in animation, I immediately want some of the things removed, like hierarchy.
