I work for General Motors. We have test dummies of all shapes and sizes to represent children, women, babies and men. Just because NHTSA does not require them for a 5 star rating does not mean that we want women and children dying in our vehicles. We've had "smart dummies" since 2010 and have been using the data collected from those dummies to improve our models and make them more robust and safer.
My girlfriend is doing code bootcamp to try to have an option outside of her current job. I do know one girl who did it a couple years ago, who was a bartender and is now writing frontend React for Nike and making six figures. My GF's very smart, and I want to encourage her, but I don't think it's going to work. She's not a watch-maker. She's good at people. Here's my glossy view on this. Everyone wants this glamorous job now of being an engineer. But you have to be a fuckin obsessive OCD geek to look at a shitpile of cat output and be like what the fuck went wrong here, I can't stop, sleep or eat until I figure it out. It's okay. Not everyone can or should make watches. How do you train them..? Put them in the woods with StackOverflow and give them something impossible.
I'm sorry you had that experience. The school system failed you by not helping you as a victim of bullying.

That being said football is a source of joy, entertainment, and camaraderie to hundreds of millions of people around the planet. There's really no "lack of any redeeming values in football". You should perhaps come to a grassroots football match, away from the multi-billion dollar dirty business the sport at a highest level has become, to see that.
"Portable" applications are, in my opinion, the absolute best way to distribute applications. They act like ye-olde desktop applications from the 80s and 90s where everything was a single self-contained object, meaning that application management was identical to regular file management. Copy them to new media to 'install', delete them to 'uninstall', run them from file shares, CDs, or USB sticks, keep them organized in folders however you want, and have multiple versions of the same application without any fancy management tools, gigantic dependency resolution databases, or third party middlemen painstakingly integrating everything.

Sadly, the world has moved away from this kind of simplicity.

It wouldn’t surprise me if the USA men’s team would become world champion within a few decades. The sport is growing rapidly in Spanish-speaking areas, Spanish-speakers are the fastest growing linguistic group in the United States, the country is sport-minded, and the USA men’s team already is ranked 11th in the world (https://www.fifa.com/fifa-world-ranking/men?dateId=id13505) (ahead of Germany!)

I found eg https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2021/feb/23/r... which tries to count all deaths, not just what can be attributed to the football stadiums.

(It's a high death toll in any case. But we should still stick to the facts.)
New money in Middle East and Asia is exactly the reason for the proposed "Super League". Why should Manchester City play Watford on a regular Tuesday and Wolverhampton on Sunday. No one cares except fans from Manchester (and some smaller countries in Europe). If they instead could play against Barcelona, Juventus and Bayern every weekend there would be a wave of money coming from the Middle East and Asia where the fans don't know or care about football culture or history or the importance of the home league and cup. No disrespect to those fans at all, I'm just pointing out that it is a wholly commercial endeavor. Top tier football is business and I'm just glad I don't follow any of the big clubs in Europe. Give it a few years and they will start playing Super League (or whatever) matches in Singapore and Abu Dhabi. Fans at home left behind, but they don't care as the new fanbase in ME and Asia pumps a lot more money into the business.
And it's not as simple as just statically compiling all your dependencies into the final executable either.

If we categorized the reviews and the category of "no smell" increased in relation to the other categories, wouldn't that give a better view at the issue than looking at absolute values? Isn't this is what dividing by all reviews would effectively do, only in the context of a single category (no smell)?

> What's the purpose of an autopay-enabled credit card compared to a debit card? Is it just a convention?

As long as interest is avoided, rewards and protection. I end up with a 'free' plane ticket to Europe every year through my primary CC. The Apple Card gives 3% back on anything Apple (plus some others like TMO), and allows you buy almost any Apple item with 12 month, 0% payments. I could spend the 2k on that laptop or keep that money invested and just pay 166/month. The Amazon card is 5% back on anything Amazon (and Whole foods if that's your thing). I bought a 'free' TV with the rewards last year.

I've had my CCs stolen many times, and the buffer means I've never had that money leave my bank account.

I was taught early on in life that cash is king. The longer you can keep the cash in your control the better. Using CCs to provide a buffer does exactly that. And the rewards are a bonus for money I'm spending anyway.

> Watching lecture videos is now a major part of many students’ university experience.

This sentence is the most important, describing a failure in education. Once I learned to teach through project-based learning, I'm never going back, largely because of student feedback, that they learn more and are more engaged.

I'm not saying we don't learn from lecture at all, but a lot less relative to other ways. Maybe some subjects or professors work with lecturing, but not subjects that I studied in college.
> Umm, with respect - it is the US anti-Chinese rhetoric that is changing, rather than Chinese government policy.

100% - but such a sentence also needs to come with a disclaimer explaining that it doesn't mean the CCP regime isn't guilty of killing millions of its own people over the years and that any ideology or technology they export needs to be viewed as such.

Not to be mean, but TBH I rolled my eyes a bit because awkwardly dancing with the interpreter until something appears to work is kind of exactly like throwing spaghetti at the wall.

And as others have pointed out, a quick jaunt to Stack Overflow might have revealed to OP that leaning on the DB is what any seasoned engineer would do, which is probably a better engineering lesson than how to implement a reduce by hand.

AFAIK Stack Overflow's mission statement isn't "Be Rip-Offable for Devs Everywhere." Obviously I know about "copy-paste engineers" but that's a character trait, not the result of their tools. I've always treated SO more like a knowledgeable coworker to help when I get stuck.

From A Pattern Language by Alexander:

> 112. Entrance Transition: Make a transition space between the street and the front door. Bring the path which connects street and entrance through this transition space, and mark it with a change of light, of sound, of direction, a change of surface, of level, perhaps by gateways which make a change of enclosure, and above all with a change of view.

Part of the reasons why large setbacks are defined may be because a lot of these places have roads in front of them where cars zoom by, and so the distances are used for safety in case of a car going out of control and/or to have the noise of the cars be more muffled.

If the area(s) in question had more gentle streets then vehicular traffic can be more gentle.

Amazon and the “profitless business model” fallacy (2013)
Omicron easily breaks through immunisation (see Norway superspreading event: 60 out of 120 fully vaccinated negative tested people in 3 hours indoors). Question of severity is still open, let's hope for the best.
One thing I saw in KDE applications (KDE has split its base libraries into a bazillion small libraries) is that looking up a symbol in a dynamic library is fast, but linearly trying all the libraries is costly - (IIRC) 20-40% of startup time. A possible solution would be to store with each symbol where it's expected to come from. Required libraries are listed as an array, so the "where" could be an index into the array. Symbol overriding would have priority over that lookup mechanism, but apart from overrides, lookup could be just one hash lookup in the already known library.

I am still hoping for someone else to implement that so I occasionally mention the idea :)

In that we encourage women to wear clothes in ways that we don't encourage men, yes, I think it is "toxic femininity". Toxic to both women and the planet.

We teach them that they can't wear white after a certain time the year, and then black after a certain time. Why? Just because. We teach them never to wear the same outfit as their friend at the same party. We teach that they always have to wear perfect clothes.

There are examples of people fighting these things (such as ripped jeans) but they're the rebels, not the norm.

So yeah, I think that in regards to most clothing issues, "toxic femininity" definitely applies.

For fast fashion... I don't know. I have never paid attention to that scene, so I don't know how much it affects men.

Also, I should note that "toxic masculinity" generally only refers to behaviors that straight men show, and not gay men. And is often badly applied.
Ah. That makes sense.

It’s obvious you’re not a human rights expert. The thing is, the people at Amnesty International are human rights experts. They see an obvious problem and you’re doing gymnastics to convince everyone the problem doesn’t exist.

That’s a problem. You’re ignoring actual experts and spreading misinformation and now lies.

> What I notice is that despite aspect ratios becoming wider, the monitors have pretty consistently also become taller in absolute measure.

Dell 3007WFP and the Apple Cinema HD display were both ~16" tall. They're over 15 years old now. They were a expensive at the time, but they're still taller than most modern 16:9 and "27:9" displays available now.

>What I don't understand is why I'd ever want 1920x1440 (4:3) monitor over 2560x1440 (16:9) one, unless I'm really space constrained

I think mixed use is a key. You need good balance of residential, commercial, office space, schools/libraries and even some light industry. That is cut down need of long travel times and distances for at least some of the residents.

Football or any sport up and beyond a certain level is more about entertainment than about the actual sport.
Then the VM gets compromised instead of their workstation, no real difference. Even if you just mean sandboxing or using a VM for a single application, that interferes with all the integration of those applications. Again, more trouble than it is worth and too confusing for the users. They have a job to do, and it is our job to make sure they can do it with a minimum of fuss.

We have implemented a lot of other ransomware mitigations to protect data on servers, which is where the users should be keeping anything important anyway, but if a workstation gets hit we just burn it to the ground and start over with it from a standardized corporate image. We've also implemented mechanisms for early detection with automated triggers to cut any affected users and workstations off until an admin can look at it. And we've altered our backup strategy to make damaging one set of backups from anywhere but a locally connected console as impossible as we can.
Now that you mention it, basic implementation is rather trivial: isolate keyframes (which is in the video data¹), aggregate the transcripts chunks (e.g. .vtt should be available) within those keyframes according to the timestamps.

Issues: first of all, transcript quality: those of TED (Chris Anderson's "Technology Entertainment Design" conferences) are curated, those of YT are oftentimes not. Then, discriminating significant and less significant keyframes, but if one only needs "decent" instead of "perfect", good compromises for heuristic algorithms (more "parametrized procedures" or "recipes") can surely be found.

You are tempting me... In an evening one should get something already usable. Better than a presentation, I see the transcript text with aside thumbnails linking to the full-sized images. As someone who sometimes studies material from video, when I am listening or watching I am not in the strict need for text analysis, and when I am working on the text itself I do not need the video. On the other hand, if I think of the MIT OpenCourseware material and similar (Yale etc.), the "blackboard" shots can be precious to have alongside the text.

In past the Chinese government did send large numbers of people to camps based on their ethnicity.

Mongols - since its first years

Koreans - Koreans Chinese were routinely rounded up every time NK-China affairs were flaring up since seventies

And Uighurs were in, and out of concentration/extermination camps many times already in the past. In 1949, 1967, 1976, 1991, 1998

It isn't uncommon for people to get confused about layering. In fact, it is particularly hard when you have a lot of people who have used something for a long time without actually understanding the design of it.

I'm not a fan of how websockets are implemented in browsers. It's a bit too "magical" for my taste. But what people seem to be complaining about is a mismatch between how they think networking works and how it actually works.

This really isn't any different from the kinds of problems I'd teach beginners to get around 25 years ago when dealing with ordinary TCP sockets. What has changed is that programmers generally tend to know a lot less about the underlying technology these days (because there is so much extra complexity to worry about).
IDK how it was in Hawaii, but don't feel bad. I'd much rather spend money on an experience (or friends and family) than on buying stuff. If it adds to the fabric and experience of your life, it's worth it. That's what money is for. The reason I think this is, it's the total opposite of sitting alone in your castle acquiring shit that you hope to one day show off to people.

> Linux folks say that unused memory is not good, of course it is.

30 or so years ago, while watching over a friend of mine's shoulder who was sitting at the gorgeous 3278-2 system console with the legendary beam-spring keyboard, looking into usage stats on an IBM 4381 mainframe, I noticed the CPU (I think it was only one on that machine, that occupied most of a floor) was pegged at 100% usage. When I asked if that was bad, he simply responded:

"Of course it's 100% used! We paid for it, we'd better use it!"

Later I understood that he'd probably be more concerned if the IO processors started to get saturated, but, by then, I was no longer using mainframes.
So Intel saying "forced labour bad, mkay" is bad. After facing ban saying 'is not how we feel about it". Really? Mhm, mkay. Not sure what is worse now. Getting WW2 IBM vibes now kind of. This is like calling for global boycott. Come on Intel, we know you can do better
Ref counting can also lead to memory leaks with circular references.
Why not throw some office space and light industry in the mix as well. Having lived in near sub-burb and walked or bike through yard to school everyday I never saw or heard any issues with it.
