FWIW I would not bank any major decision - one way or the other - based on anything Wirecutter says. I’ve been screwed over listening to them far too many times to count. Other review sites aren’t much better.

Sometimes it’s better to just go with your gut and word of mouth reputation. There are far too many variables for testers to test accurately, in addition to any biases that may exist.

I’m growing tired of these organizations that claim to be - or are treated as - the end all be all for anything - reviews, knowledge, shopping, etc. It sounds good, but it’s often much different from reality if you dig a little deeper.
To make an analogy, my dad worked at a large chemical factory. It had its own full service fire department. This department also participated in mutual aid with the surrounding town. One thing they could do was provide services that would normally not be a consideration for a sleepy suburb, such as a bomb squad.

I think if your business is particularly security intensive, I don't see a reason not to supplement the basic services provided by the government. There have always been railroad police, armored car services, and so forth.

I think Maytag is another example of what I think of as the attitude of profit margin >>> artisanry in modern companies.
It goes something like this:

Company A makes a thing, maybe it was founded by the inventor of the thing, maybe not, but it makes a thing and it is PROUD to make the thing. The thing is reliable, durable, and it does what it is advertised to do, well. It's crafted with care, with QA and built with quality parts.

And THEN the beancounters come in. Oh-ho, they say, you can increase your profit margin on every unit sold if you replace this FooPart with a cheaply made mass produced overseas equivalent.

Also, we will reduce the number of expensive quality inspectors to save costs.

Actually, we are outsourcing ALL labor to overseas to save costs,

and etc etc, the cost of the unit probably doesn't decrease, but the profit margins sure look nice until the point confidence in the product collapses and sales tank.

When I lived in DC and called around for contractors to do things to my house, I encountered some who would not take jobs in that city. It wasn’t worth it to them, because tools were routinely stolen from their trucks. Of course they could have invested in guards and armored trucks. But it made more sense to only do business in VA and MD, which had more effective law enforcement.

Toward the end of the letter UP warns of the same outcome: unless the government starts doing its job they’ll just avoid LA. The end result of more businesses making this choice will lead to LA becoming another Detroit.

Would you apply this same standard to wearing a mask during a pandemic? How about being vaccinated?
Ah, now I understand what you mean. It is certainly true, that there is additional information in a diagram.

But - most of that information is just visual help to transport the raw information - to enable you to decode the information (which is what this is all about, as decoding code is mental work).

The x y position of a uml class diagram for example, is irrelevant in terms of raw data, but it makes a difference to the brain, of whether one diagram is centered or in some corner. Likewise all the other information, like color etc.

They are simply there to help you understand the main information. So I do not think they carry unessential information.
If the color of a diagram helps get the information across - meaning it makes it easier for the reader to understand the main information - than that information might be not essential, but still important. Whether that works, depends of course on the diagrams and tools and how they get used. Again, this is the hard part.
“They have insurance” is unfortunately a common phrasing in defense of cities not enforcing the law. You do realize insurance cost will increase the more it’s used.

How about the city just doesn’t let criminals run rampant? From what it seems, they are barely trying and they have a DA that refuses to play ball anyways.
UBI would hopefully come from land-value taxes. This has been debated a lot and seems to be one of the best methods. Another would be making every American turn in their bank accounts into a single account, and slap a limit on how much you can have in there.... whether that's 50 million or 20 billion... piss off the billionaire class for sure, but who cares.

Inequality shouldn't be that out of whack anyways and having a max speed on it could encourage better equality.

Personally if I had UBI I'd work more on side-projects and try to get some recurring income coming in...I'm still trying to do that but it's harder w/ all the distractions of doing client/freelance work..and the depression when I can't meet bills because I'm having a ADHD poor-motivation month, or anti-social-can't be bothered w/ marketing to find new clients month... both of which seem like every month since the Pandemic began...

I'd hope a lot more people would actually go into science fields and do research when they can afford to go to school and have a guaranteed home and basic necessities...

Honestly a utopia to me would see 95% of kids becoming scientists and technologists, the rest in the arts... and everything else being automated and we work on solving things like aging, space travel, and climate change.
I picked up a model A for just this reason. $120 on craigslist for a 35 year old machine. It is super solid, but will need to replace a few minor parts soon. And from what I can tell they are all available for purchase from concept2, which is awesome.
It’s a 160% INCREASE, not a 60% one (you misread as +60%). But even +60% year over year would be no joke. Your comment assumes it’ll stay constant but if the trend holds the required investment in security could become sizable. Not that I even see the case for not prosecuting crime just because « UP has insurance » (you sure their insurer will be happy to pay for that crime and not raise premiums? Why should UP customers pay for security directly when the rest of the country gets it through actual police?)
Haha, what a huge oversight on my part, of course citizens and non-citizens have different rights.

One of the legal principles of Israel is:

> The right to exercise national self-determination in the State of Israel is unique to the Jewish people. [0]

There's also a legal path from citizenship to legal-residency, which I would surmise is used almost exclusively on non-Jewish citizens, as well as the blanket permission for all Jewish people (and no one else) to become citizens of Israel.

“all those arrests, however, UP has not been contacted for any court proceedings.”

They’ve tried to recall gascon already for this, but the voters want him and his policies. If UP doesn’t like it they should bypass LA. It’s a sinking ship anyway, politely asking for “leadership” is laughably naive. California has one party for all intents and purposes and voters are too afraid because the elite tell them it’s too dangerous to vote outside The Party.

This is such obvious BS, when the real kicker is that after you already shelled $4k, they really really want you to rack out that sweet sweet monthly subscription money and don't want any competitors on a screen that, it turns out, they can control.

Greedy manufacturers wanting to get into that monthly recurring revenue model.
The use of “vandalism” vs theft seems to be perspective. The container was vandalized to access. The actual theft of items within is secondary.
Related use. I had a storage space where the company said there was vandalism in the area of my locker and I should come check. Sure enough it was broken into and items had been taken. As far as storage company was concerned, it was vandalism of their property and theft of mine.
Dumb question, but how does this deal with security? Can't anyone broadcast valid but malicious data on 1575.42 MHz? (e.g. to crash planes/missiles etc)

I hate this.. this removes any opportunity for deep work instead you are constantly context switching. Your cognitive load is through the roof, and you feel like you can do nothing well.

My company did same, but they didn't hire any devops, they just started calling us devops and fired sysadmins, told us to figure out Kubernetes and CI/CD pipelines. Our velocity is less than 50% compared to before but I am sure on paper it looks like company saved tons of money.

If medical devices are like avionics, life critical software is actually pretty boring. And it is probably a good thing.

I definitely didn't have the feeling that "if I get that wrong, someone will die". Yes, it is definitely true that people may die, but responsibility is so diluted that if feels so foreign. You are given specifications that are extremely detailed, you implement them, all the fancy stuff is banned. You freeze the version, then someone reads the specs, write the tests, pass the tests, weeks later, they discover a problem in the specs, update the specs, update the code, update the tests, freeze, more testing, etc... Refactoring? Don't even think about it. Continuous integration? Sure, but that won't update your documentation signed by 15 different people that is necessary for certification. The process is so mind numbing and tedious that the fact that there are lives on the line is the only motivation. And even with that, many people simply don't give a fuck (and it is as scary as is sounds).

When the software is finally in production, if there is a problem, it passed through so many hands that no one and everyone is responsible at the same time.
lol, you really went straight to the hyperbole
> UP has insurance, and, I'm sure treats a small percentage of thefts as the cost of doing business.

And the revenues from shipping — just revenues, let alone the profits — are a fraction of the value of the cargo. If, say, a container full of new MacBooks gets broken into and looted, that is going eat the profits they'd earn from a lot of other containers. While they have insurance, they pay for that insurance, and unless the insurer is (a) stupid or (b) a charity, they pay at least as much as the amount of the losses, and probably more.

UP and their customers seem to be uninterested in simply shrugging, saying "insurance", and eating that cost.

Oh, and then there's the risk to employees who may occasionally be attacked or held at gunpoint. It doesn't take a lot of that before the impact on your personnel becomes a drain, too, and hiring is tight enough in this economy even without asking for people to risk life and limb.

> UP can increase their investment in securing their trains and property. The alternative is the taxpayer spending a lot of money on police and incarceration.

It looks like they propose to secure their trains and property by doing business in places that are not Los Angeles.
First, let me just say that I'm so sorry for your loss. Few things are likely to affect us as deeply over time as losing someone. You have my sympathy.

Like others will tell you, everyone grieves differently, and that applies to all aspects: timing, depth, breadth, mode — all of it.

There's no "right" way to grieve, and there's no "wrong" way to grieve.

It sounds like your own response is concerning to you, but it doesn't have to be.

In various crises in my own life I've followed a pattern that sounds similar to what you've described: I tend to hold my emotions at arms length, leaning heavily on my rational thinking to attempt to work through the immediate problem until the storm clears. I am usually very calm in the moment. That doesn't mean there no emotional response in the moment, but I tend to be a very slow burn on the emotional side.

What has helped me, and what I would encourage you to do, is find someone you can actually feel comfortable opening up to. Doesn't mean you need to dump everything all at once, but being able to have someone help walk through feelings over time can be tremendously helping in processing grief (and many other parts of life). If that's a friend, family member, or therapist, it's worth trying to find.

My guess is that eventually this acute crisis will pass, and the waves will find you. Having an outlet for that can be a lifesaver.

tl;dr — There's nothing wrong with you, but find someone to talk to so that you can work through the feelings when they arrive, which they will, in some way, at some time.
Is there a showcase of Plan9’s killer features?

For example there is this mandatory covid testing. So each department is handed an excel file and they log the tests. And there is another excel which summarizes those dept’s ones.

Can Plan9 be useful in such a situation?
Fair point, and conceded.

Oddly though, I nearly tried some weak defense. Outrage algorithms are destroying my brain.
I use a google script with time trigger and filters to download each message (30 days or more older, so that I have time to delete unwanted), as .eml files too, along with your suggested mox files.
Agreed. Back in 2004, we did a college project to build a web browser for our CS Class and I built a poor man's browser using Java and Swing (Yes I know I know). Honestly, I was able to load a few websites using it and I was super proud of myself :). Today though, I doubt I can write something like that so quickly and get any adoption since browsers are fully loaded with so much stuff these days.
Ah I see what you mean. Yes that makes sense.
I guess I still have no idea how come this falls into customs (what is being imported exported here? The domain?), but I can accept it as a fact.

If moderate democratic senators could be bought with handouts to toe the party line (anyone remember those times?), perhaps closely examining mergers like this would be a higher priority. There are bills moving through congress though, and eventually with more authority, perhaps the FTC could make meaningful market changes.

How is it n^2?

I can see how the DB would need to scan the index from the left side to arrive at the correct offset value O(n). But once it gets there, it should be able to load 15 rows from primary storage.

(FWIW in postgres the primary key index is a secondary index.)

I do agree that "deferred join" is no better than the first option in theory.

How does your point #3 work? It seems to assume the DB tries to guess how many rows are in a single page in order to implement OFFSET. This seems like an obvious bug that would be long fixed.
I always encounter a "random" stop-and-solve-me-a-visual-puzzle when visiting an Australian forum related to SOHO networking equipment.

You could bundle welfare, food stamps, other social programs, medicare, etc. add a tax break/no tax for anyone making less than $20K. Put it all into one system and call it UBI. You the tax payer are still paying the same thing.
As far as I know, Wine has not primarily been a hobbyist project for about 15 years, with the bulk of development being done by CodeWeavers, which uses it as the basis for their CrossOver product. I don't believe any of that has substantially changed with the advent of Proton, though I assume that Valve is paying CodeWeavers to also pay attention to Proton issues.

I don't think it's sociopathic in any way. There is no 'normal' way to feel about a calamity because it is so out-of-place from everything else, and everybody copes differently and expresses it differently, at different times. Each person close to the person who passed away is experiencing a range of sentiments and complex feelings that are so different from one another, which can include an absence of feeling, so it's perfectly normal to feel abnormal because everyone is going to be feeling abnormal in an unexpected situation. Sometimes, they might just be asking how you're feeling or coping because they are not sure how they are feeling about it and trying to experience it with someone else to recover, because they are concerned for every other person close to that person who passed, or because they don't know how to process what they are experiencing and just looking for ideas.

It might help to hear others express the grief they experience because hearing what they are feeling or doing afterwards might help give you some ideas of what to do next or think about this person who passed differently. I don't think they would feel that you have an obligation to express grief to them when you talk to them because not everyone grieves by expressing it or has a way to express it. At the very least, you know how much you loved this person who is now gone, and that much can always be conveyed, not just by how bad a feeling it is to have lost that person, but also by how positively and greatly you felt when you were around that person when he or she was with you.

Also, very sorry to hear about your loss.
