Shouldn't be a problem in a free market. Supply will increase in response to increased demand and prices will adjust accordingly in the interim. It will be fine. Not the government's job to micro manage this stuff, especially by trampling on fundamental individual rights.
That is true up to a point, however with the "passive" aspect you get exposed to "impermanent loss", which is a loss in value due to the relative price fluctuations between the two assets in the AMM (https://www.machow.ski/posts/an_introduction_to_automated_ma...). As in most things in finance, TNSTAAFL.
Dominos pizza’s app is pretty good.
My main key was a ed25519 one for a while (looks like 2016-2018) but after running into so many edge cases I just went back to a rsa 4096. Is it in a better place now?
Does that matter?

Outcome is the same.

There’s probably a reason that drive through systems often now display a summary for customers rather than just verbal.
Pretty cool! Was the function being named "index.html", made it available on /rpc instead of /rpc/index.html ?
Completely agree regarding dense cities. Just to add to this, I recently moved to NYC from the west coast at the ripe age of 40. I decided to join a co-working space so I could meet new people (I did not know anyone here). It has been surprisingly easy to meet new friends, something I was worried about when thinking about moving. I'm not an extrovert person by any means and still in the span of 4-5 months I've met enough people that I have no problems finding someone I like to hang out with on a regular basis.

Yes, but it ought to be absolutely the last resort.

In that sense I'm not a pacifist (I once had a unform on but I was lucky to avoid major trouble). If you've ever experienced the system and mil training it's impossible to unlearn it.
The real litmus test for high intelligence is if they were not anti-vaxxers and actively sought vaccinations.
It's the EMM Computers board (www.homebrew8088.com). It's a little nicer than the PC-Retro because it has some concessions to modernity (PS/2 compatible keyboard port, ATX power connector and mounting design, uses a USB flash drive as boot medium) but there are some "work in progress" aspects (In the last few months, it's gone through a few hardware changes to make the speaker work and to support DMA) so there may be some compatibility holes.
The setup you describe, a default deny firewall, is in fact how consumer routers operate. It's not something you need to configure yourself - router manufacturers do this by default, as recommended by RFC 6092. The idea that IPv6 home networks are "wide open to the internet" is a myth.
I've heard reports of tens of thousands of trucks. It's a shame the highway cameras were turned off.

I see claimed that the Ontario Provincial Police say there are 100k to 130k trucks, but I can't see anything official to back that up -- nothing on their twitter feed or website. Maybe on the radio -- but not something I can easily check.

Here's someone on the ground who thinks there are 250k to 1 million people protesting in Ottawa right now. https://twitter.com/JuliusRuechel/status/1487570992356634625...
As someone who's used the pipe operator in a different language in a professional setting, I can attest that it makes code a lot easier to read and write.
> A corporation can't arrest me, shoot me, confiscate my property, or otherwise tell me what to do outside any voluntary contract with them. It's really not the same at all.

Corporations have done all things, even within the boundaries of the USA.

You are welcome to argue that this should not have been possible, should not be possible etc., and very few people, including me, are going to disagree with you.

But if we're going to talk about what actually happens in the real world rather than what should happen, everything you've said there is factually untrue.

Uber has been helpful a few times when restaurants wouldn’t. I had the worst sushi order of my life. Order was missing items, fish was stinky, just gross. I called the restaurant and they offered 10% off my next order. They wouldn’t even replace the missing orders or gross items.

It was so weird as this was about a $150 sushi order and the restaurant was fairly nice.

Uber refunded the meal immediately after seeing a picture.
The only cure for someone with such judgementalism is reading. Read some literature. Start now.
This is a good collection of recommendations. At a new job, I often end up making changes to internal queues that (it turns out) conform to these recommendations, and get better performance and reliability out of it.

Though I didn't learn it by engineering networks like the author -- I took the ideas from lean product development and applied them also to software.

> Corollary: limit queue length to a statistically large burst (eg. 99th percentile).

This is somewhat underspecified -- at what time frame are we calling it a burst? How much money/memory/resources are we willing to spend to maintain the queue?

But, critically, are we willing to make a queue so long that we sacrifice throughput during a sustained overload? Sometimes it makes sense to handle only a 20 % burst or even less, because the shorter queues lead to nicer behaviour when the burst draws out into sustained overload.
Pancakes in nz are not thick. You get pancakes which are like crepes, or pikelets which are like small American pancakes.

American pancakes are disgusting. It’s like the equivalent of American carbon bacon.
In that era, rendering of the frame buffer was often performed by writing to a film slide recorder.

That is, it streamed a bitmap to a printer that wrote to optical film stock.

We had a slide recorder at one of my early IT jobs. IIRC, it was at output device for a Macintosh computer, which meant that it was technically my responsibility to keep running, but it was a special beast so I would basically check to see if it was plugged in correctly and not on fire; for anything else, I would call the vendor that leased it to us.

I'm pretty sure that the film stock, once written, needed to be developed like any other photo film, but that was 30 years ago and I just can't recall.

But sure, kid: write a demoscene for it. 0.0005 frames per second...
which SEA country/university was that?
Does FreeDOS not run in privileged mode like DOS?
Without talking to somebody on the phone, often I don't have a lot of faith that the order will even be received. Sometimes the place closes but the app happily continues to take orders. Other times the order simply gets lost in the ether. After a while, you learn which places are not worth the risk of ordering from online.
> It can be somewhat frustrating to be on the receiving end of orders that would normally sound extreme to order over the counter or through a drive-thru speaker, but the app makes it seem fine.

Oh I can imagine. I'm mindful of not making each item have 5 indented lines below it with crazy swaps, omissions, etc. Mine are always a simple thing. Always just one add, remove, or swap.

A long time ago I used to order a Quarter Pounder with extra onions and no pickles. About a quarter of the time (heh) I'd get one with a mountain of pickles and not an onion in sight. I finally decided that I might as well learn to love pickles, and simplified that order to just "extra onions". Error rate dropped and—bonus!—now I actually like pickles.
And that sunlight is available abundantly early morning and late evening.
The idea of a government, especially the US, laundering money doesn't really make any sense. Generally, the point of laundering money is to pay taxes on it so it can enter the financial system. Governments (and especially the US who has the most control of international monetary pipelines like SWIFT) can freely do what they want with their money generally, at least within their own countries. Their money is going to make it into the financial system without any laundering.
Amazing. It's like you live in a parallel universe where the US, not Russia, is preparing to invade by amassing a hundred thousand troops, issuing insane ultimatums, dehumanizing the enemy daily on its propaganda outlets, etc.
Exciting ideas, but totally over my head.

But I like the idea of developing mathematics from a category theoretical point of view.
A more pragmatic look would just see this as political posturing to save face with the Russians to give off some look of independence and not wholly being lockstep with NATO geopolitical goals for the region.

I'm not going to claim to be some geopolitical expert, but if you want to negotiate your way out of this mess it would seem to absolutely necessary to divert yourself away from the West (even partially) in order to come across as more autonomous. It would give talks much more credence rather than Russians seeing Ukraine as US puppets and not speaking for themselves.

> In case someone has any advice beyond finding a hobby, going to therapy

It looks like you don’t really want to solve the issue, rather just get busy solving it.

Because therapy is the answer, often is the only real answer, way better than any advice you can possibly imagine getting on the internet.

Even though finding a good therapist might take a lot of work itself.

Im speaking from personal experience of running away from similar issues by finding sophisticated ways of procrastination.
> I get that you're being purposefully obtuse or whatever

Fuck off. :)

> but in just about every sane language (not to mention plain-old mathematics), extraneous parentheses don't behave like this

Sure they do. They imply their contents is a value (which a splat emphatically should not be), rather than part of the syntax of an argument list, pattern, or literal. Now, the existence of splat syntax implies a dynamic language, which means it’s never going to be fully sane, but I can say I’m extremely surprised to find that `f(a, (*b))` works in Python. It doesn’t in Ruby. `f((kwarg=value))` doesn’t work in Python.

> Try to put yourself in a neophyte's shoes, this would confuse the hell out of you.

The error message, maybe. Like I said, I never ran into it. The behaviour of the syntax, no.
Do you believe there is some objective thing called "just"?

IMO, I think this is far less readable than the pipe operator. Besides that how many times do you need to call three functions without additional parameters?
There were certainly people that thought the web was only for weirdos and nerds. I got bullied in school because I was on the web and playing with computers instead of playing sports, etc. Nerds weren't always cool. Life as a nerd got much easier when the money started flowing and it was completely obvious to EVERYONE we were taking over the world.

Thanks for providing the link; the popular selection[1] is most interesting. The entire space has gone so meta (a little on the nose) most don't even realize it... Imagine if all the internet offered for the first 13 years of it's life was different ways to sell you more internet. That's what the entire space looks like at this point and this link is yet another example - there are maybe three instances of destinations that I could see being even remotely useful, interesting, or usable to anyone outside of the cryptosphere.

I've been really excited about the space since at least 2017. After five years without a single "I can't live without this" moment that excitement has waned significantly.

whether or not Spotify is a social platform is irrelevant. Young didn't want to be involved with a business so directly supporting & fostering his/our worlds foes.
So, from your post you:
a) don't know who any of your neighbors are.
b) think you're better than those you do attempt to associate with
c) don't want any advice on
1) doing things you love (i.e. hobbies)
2) seeking help from mental health professionals
3) meeting new people

no offense, but this seems like a social experiment or fodder for a medium article no one will ever read. Supposing you're genuine, you have a few options:
a) get dogs and go do a dog park
b) find a magic wand and wave it
c) (sorry this is against site guidelines) stop being a loser - and, no, material success has nothing to do with that.
I do a bunch of Meetups and watched this happen a bunch (EDIT: the going to a hobby event and never speaking again that is). About a year and a half after meeting a fellow regular of a hiking Meetup I finally felt not awkward inviting the lady and her husband to a board game night with my wife. Maybe the key step is to get with the regulars (or volunteer to be the coordinator?). I think the couple I've befriended have the same problem I have, which is why their schedule is so open for my silly ideas for socializing!

In my case the gateway to friendship was more hikes, and vaguely stale board game nights. We're trying to do something (making friends) that's difficult, that much is clear!
This is good advice, also if it doesn't work, you'll be so tired all of your problems will be gone because you'll be sleeping or trying to eat enough to keep up.

Yes, potatoes contain all the proteins necessary in the human diet. So in a pinch, just potatoes + a multivitamin will, uh, suffice for a while.

Oats and most legumes (soy, peas, lentils, etc.) are like this as well. And spinach. Many other plant foods, like wheat, do have all the proteins required by humans, but not in quantities sufficient to meet the minimum intake at normal calorie levels if you ate them near-exclusively.

This is conjecture, but I suspect this is the underlying reason for why so many vegetarian dishes are based on a pairing of wheat or rice with a legume. Peanut butter + crackers. Tahini + pitas. Curry + rice. Bean + wholegrain salad. All the same pattern.
Ukraine can't defend itself against Russia regardless of if they'd like to or not.

The buck stops at the US and Nato simply due to the size matches between the forces.
This happened to me. So I actually quit my job and went travelling. I met a girl. My photography got better. It was life changing. Then I picked up remote work and stayed abroad.

Moved back home recently. Found out that I didn’t like being back. Went to European city for a year. Went to meetup when I got there; made loads of friends. It was a really fun year. Albeit very transient.

Now I’m back in Asia.
Ultimately you’re looking for a life partner. So a gf. No number of friends will fill that void.

Not having monetization certainly leads to quirky, genuine, and campy stuff, and having easy monetization certainly leads to crap. But having monetization has also lead to some amazing content and free services today that we never had before and probably never would have had.

Things like photopea.com which is created by one person would probably have never progressed beyond the very basics were there no ad revenue to be made.

Additionally, there are countless bloggers and content creators that create rich, amazing content and there is no way they would be able to do anything close to what they are doing if they couldn't make a living at it.
One man's "readable code" is another person's trash. As the number of commiters in a codebase increases, the chances that you find at least one person's code to be an irritating annoyance increases exponentially.

The only way to avoid it is to have the political power to call out the team member that's annoying. Easy enough to do if you're the lead and nobody will question your decisions.

The worst and dumbest fights I've encountered is with people with 30 years of experience who have diametrically opposed opinions. I _especially_ despise having to call out very senior engineers when their own code misbehaves.

Having been following the movement from supporters Facebook groups, you are seeing it much as they are seeing it. The government sees it differently, but it seems hard to me to call this a "fringe minority ... who are holding unacceptable views". What fraction of Canadians they represent is hard to tell (although, honestly, it wouldn't be hard for the media to commission and report an unbiased poll).
>But no one is being forced into the transaction, and they are clearly adding value for many.

Eh, there have been many stories over the years about these delivery platforms doing pretty awful things to insert themselves as a middleman where they aren't wanted. Here's one from a couple days ago. [1] Other strategies I've seen stories about include claiming the location on Google maps and changing the phone number listed, buying a domain for the restaurant and hosting the menu (setup to order through the delivery service), and modifying the prices shown in the app to help cover delivery costs which could distort the perception of the value of the restaurant unfairly.

I'm not sure where I personally fall on it all. On the one hand, a generic delivery service should be able to exist, and if that generic delivery service ordered food, maybe they should get served just as any other takeout does.

On the other, restaurants are ending up with bad reviews because consumers sometimes think they're ordering directly from the restaurants and end up with cold food, stolen food, etc. Restaurants might package things differently if they knew they'd be in the car longer than the average drive home. I'm empathetic to restaurants wanting to protect their reputations. This is a bigger issue than Amazon delivering your package 30 minutes late, the food has a pretty short time where it'll be considered "really good" by the consumer, and a delivery service maximizing profit would like to get just one more delivery on the trip if at all possible.

Dealing with noise and surplus light might do more, but would be harder.
Yep GSM standardized on some of the Hayes AT commands and added many new AT commands. Considering GSM was published in 1990, that means they were working on it in the 1980s when these commands were regularly used. I imagine there's no strong incentive to update these commands and they keep getting migrated to whatever new voice and data protocol cellular systems tend to use when it comes to modem interfaces. I guess no one wants to sell an incompatible modem to OEMs, so these old AT commands will probably always be with us.

I remember seeing this a few years ago in some mifi device or something and thinking "Wait are those old modem commands?" I realized, well, that is a modem being used, so they probably just reused old protocols because why not?

List of commands for those interested:

I studied in a boarding school which had a mandatory meditation time around 2 pm. This was exactly the time when we would me feeling very sleepy. Probably because of peak digestion time after we finished our lunch. Anyways we all would just sleep off in the bench instead of meditating. Really helped us concentrate on the rest of the classes
> Really anything can be applied for as a contribution, you can rock up right now and say you'll translate the docs into Esperanto for X amount and the community decides if that's worth paying out of the pool for this round, if rejected you can apply again next round, no hard feelings.

Let's say the community decides it's worth paying for that. Does payment happen up front, or only upon completion of work? If the latter, who decides if the work meets the standard that was expected and thus is worth paying out for?
Just to be clear, "visual processing" being screwed up doesn't have to mean a vision impairment; The combination of dark background with bright moving dots can make certain people motion sick, especially when combined with static objects in the foreground that you need to focus on. The fun part is that these types of processing quirks usually do stick around for a bit and fade over time.

I guess I'd kind of compare sensitizing stimulus and subsequent removal to saturation in a solution where metered dilution was the only way to bring the saturation down to normal.

There is no longer one and only one obvious way of doing things, which is not just sad but downright becoming a hazard for entry into the language.
