Huh, you make quite the leap here?

If you ask me what kind of characters I play in an MMO (for example) then I'm going to honestly tell you that as a heterosexual man I find it pleasurable to look at a woman's behind while I'm playing.

That would be ONLY if you ask me "why do you pick females as playable characters?" however, I won't blurt it out of the blue.

I haven't harassed a woman in any capacity, in any setting, work or not, in my life. The mere idea to noticeably ogle a female co-worker or make sexual jokes towards them never even occurred to me. I learned that this is a thing for the first time in my life when I was 29 or so, when one colleague was fired for following two attractive coworkers around and not leaving them alone for a smoke break (WTF).

I think it's fair to give an honest answer if asked "why do you pick female heroines?". And yet it seems you'll flag me as a potential harasser?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you though.
From that link, like 1 in 10 people dying are vaccinated. And even ignoring that, I will still personally choose to stay home when infected with covid even if it only helps the unvaccinated.
I enjoy both (well, Italian pizza as in a US restaurant making "Neapolitan" pizza, so idk) but yes they are greatly different foods.
This was always the case. If anyone tells you otherwise, they do not know. In fact, every team at Intel operates as a P&L ruthlessly, not just manufacturing.
I'll check that out. Most of 'em were PS5, and once you download them you can't get a refund.
This is an argument for marginal income taxes, which we already have. Perhaps the brackets need to be adjusted, but there is a system that already tries to reduce the burden of an entity earning much less than another.
Oh, you mean that thing I addressed in the very next paragraph?

I'm saying I don't think we've reached that point yet. In other words, I think prices are often as low as they are not because people won't pay more, but because companies have exploited the labor market to lower prices creating a race to the bottom.
A decade and a half ago there were Paypal debit cards, where if you sold something on eBay via PayPal you could spend the PayPal balance without ever transferring it out. I don't use it anymore with an account so I am unsure if this is still the case.
Saved you the read:

> I’m releasing the book cover as a 1/1 NFT, which includes a 1/1 first edition digital NFT of the entire book upon release. My goal is to attract a Web3 partner who wants to bridge the divide between Web3 and publishing. Someone who wants to disrupt the publishing industry. I’m willing to listen and learn and document the process for other authors. The proceeds of the NFT will go to editing, publishing, and marketing the book (or whatever form it takes).
Off the top of my head, I can think of a couple of things it tests for:

* Ability to reflect on and critique their own ideas, using technical common-sense. If someone has never had a reason to research or think too hard about how GPS works, then it might be reasonable to initially assume that it sends a signal to a satellite. But hopefully, when prompted to think about it a bit more, they would realize: "Hey, if that's true, then somehow these satellites that were launched in the 80's and 90's were able to scale up their capacity and handle orders of magnitude more demand, now that everyone has a smartphone in their pocket. Maybe that's not how it works?"

* General curiosity and interest in areas outside their field of specialty. This might not be strictly necessary to get a job done, but it probably has some correlation with other measures of technical aptitude that are hard to probe directly.
What's different is that ChromeOS was an alpha OS 12 years ago and obviously is radically different today. One major difference is that you can run a full debian environment.

It's both: a copy of the original (but, critically, a copy made by someone with authorisation to make copies) and a copy of your work, which you executed yourself.

You have the right to sell both, one as owner and one as owner and creator. But you only have the right to make reproductions of your own work, which means if you want to make more copies of the complete derivative, you have to buy new authorised copies of the original. You don't have the rights to make your own copies of the original to modify and sell.
I'm not sure about internal cultural reasons why but it seems like Microsoft just sucks at user experience for the most part, which is the key to the walled garden approach to me. I've never used a Microsoft product (other than mayyyybe the Xbox 360?) and thought, wow, this product is awesome and I'd never willingly switch to something else. You know, that feeling you get when you use something like an iPhone or Google products in the 2000s/early 2010s?
This immediately reminded me The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. The title of this "article" is pretty much the summary of the novel.

Yes, an email address is required to get RUA/RUF. I never stated this was or wasn't in line with the RFC.

> There are free services that provide analysis, such as https://dmarc.postmarkapp.com/, although arguably you still need an email address to sign up.

YES. That's what I said.
They're definitely more fun than the regular stuff, because you're dealing with the messy reality of how the human body works.

Some variant of SARS-CoV-2 will be around forever, just like the other endemic coronaviruses. It is impossible to eradicate. Thus everyone will be repeatedly exposed. This is so obvious that I can't imagine what sort of evidence you would want.

https://www.medpagetoday.com/opinion/vinay-prasad/94646

If you think it will be possible to avoid the virus forever then please explain how that could be accomplished in the real world? Because people aren't going to continue with social distancing or wearing PPE for the rest of their lives, regardless of the risks.
The point was to pay less than median income. So you're looking at closer to 30k at the high end.
As a developer I never had to blame SQL server, it was all the time develop mistake: poor architecture, poor query, some data quality issues.
Dont blame the platform for developers mistakes, thats what I was trying to say
> I think that someone who doesn't want to give their real email address to try out a service is even less likely to trust an unknown service with their credit card number.

And that's OK. The problem as I understand it is that people are signing up with disposable email addresses, using the API key they receive for 7 days, and then signing up again. They are leeches, exploiting the generous free trial.

If they stop signing up, no problem. Other people who sign up with a disposable email address can test within the restrictions, and once they trust the service have a choice to enter card details or not. If they are planning to do business with the service, they're going to have to trust it with card details.
Did you try making one? Did you try paying somebody else to do one?

This is truthfully not a big problem in the tech industry when compared to other industries, the big exceptions to this in the tech industry are the much older tech giants like IBM, Cisco or HP whose entire growth model is acquisitions. Compare tech to big pharma, and you'll see one industry still innovating inside big companies and another which is totally acquisition driven.
Sure, you'd code like

SCOPE(Resource *ptr = acquire_resource(),
release_resource(ptr))
{
// do stuff with resource ptr.
}

Actually, to allow variable declarations in the init_stmt like above, you'll need to use two nested for-loops:

#define SCOPE_(name, begin_stmt, end_stmt) for (int name = 0; !name; assert(name && "should never break from a SCOPE")) for (begin_stmt; !name; name++, (end_stmt))

It is natural to add another layer of specific usage macro like this:

#define UI_NODE(ctx) SCOPE(push_ui_node(ctx), pop_ui_node(ctx))

UI_NODE(ctx)
{
ui_color(ctx, UI_COLOR_RED);

const char *items[3] = { "a", "b", "c" };
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
{
UI_NODE(ctx)
ui_text(ctx, items[i]);
}
}

Naturally, if you're already on C++, better code these macros in terms of RAII instead of abusing for-loops. That will add a little robustness.
I should have said modern building and not codes. there are a lot of ways to satisfy good codes, 2x4 tends to be cheapest for single family houses, but others are not far behind and may be worth it in the long run. Consult a proper engineer if you are building a house of course.

> This is a very specific claim that gets thrown around a lot with zero evidence.

What... have you been looking at that has you thinking otherwise?

[EDIT] I mean for the colloquial "everyone" that means "so close to everyone that there's not much practical difference", not necessarily "literally zero people anywhere won't get it"—because it's really looking like "everyone" in the US is gonna get it within ~3 months, from what I see, which is just totally ordinary sources about infection rates.
> Tests aren't perfect, since as you said, there seems to be a significant false-negative rate with Omicron

Its not even Omicron. Rapid tests always had something like a 40% false-negative rate or something stupidly high.

------

That's why you're supposed to take two tests if you're asymptomatic, to reduce the chances of a false-negative.

Fortunately, the false-positive rate is less than 5% IIRC, and fairly reliable.

EDIT: Sensitivity and Selectivity isn't really false-negatives or false-positives. But for the purposes of this discussion, its probably good enough. Besides, I'm just an ignorant programmer who doesn't know the difference between them.
If this is the new status quo, then I am done traveling internationally.

Unfortunately, I have to believe that such an action would pose a pretty big risk of exposing their operation. Not impossible and definitely a real risk for high value targets, but it is probably not a very probable threat for the average citizen.
As I just finish my binging of HBO's Succession, I do wonder what the inside conversations leading upto this (+ Blizzards "/cultural issues) would have really liked looked like!
I use a combination of Google Photos and Dropbox. GPhotos is great for searching photos, sharing, and viewing on Chromecast. But I don't like that they can transcode your data. Supposedly they don't if you have the storage space, but an accidental app setting can still mess things up.

Then there's Dropbox. It automatically uploads all my raw data, and syncs it across multiple devices. So at least I have local and cloud backups of all my raw photos/videos. A picture taken on my phone camera will immediately appear on my PC desktop hard drive, as long as it's on. The downside is searching through photos can be a slog compared to GPhotos, but that's why I use both.

I used to use Picasa many years ago, but haven't reinstalled it on a newer computer. I've been meaning to run it through my Dropbox collection again to make it easier to sort through locally. IMO, it's still the best photo management software. As far as I know, it's still the only one that does facial recognition locally and without a subscription.
You're stretching the term "same" to mean "new products created for a different use case". (5G is a net loss to a consumer, because you need to buy a new phone to access "same" product.) Same products are quite clearly not same here.

Consumer doesn't mean "a specific individual that owns a PS5", it's a generic term meaning market participants that consume products.
Consumers don't loose if prices for new products are substantially higher in a competitive market, because willingness for a consumer to pay the price in a competitive market equals to the value of the product.

Interactive game market is highly competitive. Therefore producer prices a product at $500 => consumer agrees that $500 is acceptable => consumer spends $500 => consumer gets $500 in value => cost - value = 0 => no consumer net loss.
The danger of people falling in love with an analogy. In simpler systems (cellular), it may be straightforward. In mice, you can say that their movement follows algorithmic predictions when only one goal is present (food), but I am sure that if you enter a second goal (avoid predator), and a third (procreate) into the same experiment, you will find that the algorithm will be insufficient...at least insufficient until you have some data reduction technique on the problem space.
Purely anecdotal but I feel like we are at a point where a lot of people would definitely stop and take a close look at a non-Android alternative to the iPhone
California residents have an extremely low and practically irrelevant voting weight, for example.

I’m not here to debate why that is, I’m pointing out the stretch of the imagination involved to consider the outcome to reflect an aggregate voter will, versus basically accidents.
Welfare queens are a rounding error. Manufacturing a persistent underclass is the problem.

There are tons of potentially productive members of society languishing because if they made any serious progress toward improving their lives they'd lose their benefits. The outcomes for children born into such households are... not great.

1. I am judged by how it behaves on Chrome.

2. Safari devtools are a lot worse than Chrome.
Public institutions have succumbed to regulatory capture everywhere. It’s the final stage of Capitalism.
Wow those package leaflets are impressive. We (in Germany) get those Chinese test on an emergency admission and all they have is a single table with specifity and sensitivity (no info on viral load at all). They are however cheap and they still work . The responsible agency is actually testing them recently and at least publish the results: https://www.eurosurveillance.org/content/10.2807/1560-7917.E... . Still they allow companies to sell obviously nonworking tests with nonreproducible test results.
They are nice, but also very expensive (~$50/test) compared to the antigen tests (~$7/test)
As someone who was in Brazil and had to dig into records from my Portuguese great-grandparents when I was collecting documents to claim my citizenship, I assure your documents need to be available for a lot longer than you expect.
> Neither Tencent nor Sony are based in the US (although Sony does have a US subsidiary)

Sony Interactive Entertainment actually relocated to California a few years ago and literally everything PlayStation is under them so I'd probably call them a US company at this point.
You managed to type all that and still avoid addressing the comment you replied to, bravo. The original comment position is that any current shortage is in large part due to rampant low wages across multiple sectors. Did you have an actual refutation of that, or did you just want to distract with tangential information?
Gasprom, Dell and Tesla may be some examples of companies that have done will with vertical integration.
Roguelike just means you can beat it in one sitting now, which is a very good niche for indie games if you think about it. Slay The Spire, FTL, Rogue Legacy, and For the King are all "roguelike" but fill completely different niches in terms of actual gameplay and features and all are awesome.
I like how vaccines can "probably" reduce chances of being sick, but saying vaccines "probably" have unknown long-term effects is heresy.
Replace it with iMessage then.
Why is it never a "wage shortage"?

Because big media outlets tend to side with big business over labor, despite cries about "the liberal media".
Some are silly, some are effective ways to measure curiosity and ability to think through an abstract problem.
Yeah, it'd barely touched anyone I knew, family or friends. That changed really fast this month.
True global cooling?
i have to agree, testing is pointless. When the omicron wave washes out of the hospitals and the available bed count goes back up then the pandemic is over.
> Apple absolutely dominates browser engines

Actually, it doesn't. Look at the "usage relative" chart:

Safari is the distant second option.
And while I haven't tried it personally, apparently our insurance company requires you to either fax or physically mail the reimbursement form :-/
The people doing it before we’re basically volunteers for what they were paying. The pay is not even close to enough. They need to pay folks like they pay travel nurses to get staffing levels they need

Hey, at least, all planets are aligned for the Banjo-Kazooie remake by Toys For Bob.
It's crazy that this fundamental misunderstanding still gets repeated ever since they introduced acceptable ads.

Companies pay to get their ads categorized as acceptable if they meet the criteria for that. You can't just pay to get your ads to show up.

And within the browser extension, the user still has the option to block them anyway.
Mozilla, lol. been a while since I've seen that installed except for debugging a nasty bug in Chrome
Buying up studios and locking their games down is not innovation.

You mistook my reverse snobbery for genuine snobbery - for me "middle class" still means rich.

Which if I think about it, is probably still not a great thing to be derisive about.
All my 4 rapid tests were positive. I started testing when I had symptoms.
Game pass is a loss leader. They will jack the price once they crush competition.
I don't really see any reason that they'd lie to, for example, Pew polls.
It's not "false" in the sense that 1+1=3 is false, though you may disagree with it.

American democracy does not reflect the will of the monied, it reflects the will of the people, you just don't like what that aggregate will represents because it's not your will. No matter how much money gets dumped into elections, people actually have to vote in them, and you cannot serve in any elected capacity without first being elected.

Maybe the will of the people can be changed with money, and maybe it can be changed to reflect views that are ultimately harmful to the very people who hold those views, but it is the will of the people.

Wealth doesn't actually, literally, buy votes, and it is "1+1=3" kind of false to claim it does.

You may not like what your system of government produces as its outcomes, but it's exactly what it should be producing; a reflection of what its people want. I'm sorry it's not what you want, and I'm sorry that individual issue polling doesn't reflect reality, but when the polling actually matters, people vote differently than when a single issue is up for a non-binding, theoretical discussion.

The flu has been around forever, but not every single person has had the flu. Viruses don't spread like magic, and there's bound to be some segment of the population that never gets infected. To me, that seems more obvious than assuming every single person will come in contact and become infected. Even within the same household, Omicron doesn't always spread to every member.
And worse yet, imagine you're liable for not supporting each and every new web standard that there is 100%, right away. Just to illustrate how absurd such a ruling would have been.
I store them on my NAS, and my NAS has a synchronisation with Amazon Glacier which is a very cheap storage service that is designed for cold backups, meaning if you want to request a backup it can take 24 hours for Amazon to provide it, unlike Amazon S3 where you can access the files instantly but is 10 times more expensive. But you should only need to request a backup if your house and your NAS get robbed which hopefully happens very occasionally in your lifetime.
Scientists are puzzled? Yet they seem to know everything when it comes to covid vaccines, climate change, etc.
Then you’d have a Stratum 0 source for a stratum 1 NTP server!
At this point I don't even see the reason to test for most (exceptions apply). My kid got a very low grade fever and we kept him home and got him a covid test. He tested negative but of course we kept him home due to the fever. Next day his school called and said he has to isolate because a kid at his table tested positive. He had to isolate for 5 days or until he got a negative test. We already had a negative test so technically we could send him back to school. Obviously we didn't because he likely had covid even though he tested neg.
(no other real symptoms except the fever). We waited for the fever to go away and sent him back on day 5. No one else in the family got any symptoms so none of us tested. At this point it just seems to make sense that if you have symptoms to do the right thing and stay home from work or school until the symptoms pass, the test really has no bearing since they are so unreliable. Just treat it like the flu, if you have flu like symptoms you should stay home.

If this thing spreads as effectively as its portrayed then we will all likely get it or have had it and not realized. I have been in large crowds several times unmasked now and not gotten any symptoms. Optimally I already had it and just never noticed which is pretty much the perfect scenario. I am vaxxed but my kids are not, still debating getting them vaccinated at this point.
the government will look the other way if there is a competitor to tencent.
I will likely be symptomatic. I tend to have a really overblown immune response to vaccines, infections, and so on. I will get a 104F fever for a simple cold and typically go from "hrm, my throat is a little scratchy" to "cook an egg on my forehead" in the space of three hours.

I will then blow through three or four tests. The bigger hoard is for coming out of COVID.
I don't think NPR has always been like this. I really started to notice it when Bernie looked like he might be a serious contender in the presidential race and NPR absolutely eviscerated him daily in favor of the various bobbleheads in suits that were also-rans with a tenth of his popularity.
