Exactly. this is such a pain, especially if you happen to be apart of one organization that's AAD Connect and one that's full AAD (Azure Active Directory).

As far as I can tell, the easiest way to switch users is to go to https://www.office.com/login?es=Click directly (?es=Click is important) which will present you with all the accounts you're 'Signed in' with, even if office.com has you locked into one. Then you can use the app switcher to switch domains, which ensures the correct account.
That's ... not true? Children can learn a basic model of the greenhouse effect in school, and do so in most civilized nations. Whether this is sufficient is another thing entirely, but I would personally contend that (non-propaganda) education can never be 100% effective at causing someone to believe something?
While this is all very true, I think they're ignoring the fact that the root of the rot is in their house.
“War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse. When a people are used as mere human instruments for firing cannon or thrusting bayonets, in the service and for the selfish purposes of a master, such war degrades a people. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their free choice, — is often the means of their regeneration. A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. As long as justice and injustice have not terminated their ever-renewing fight for ascendancy in the affairs of mankind, human beings must be willing, when need is, to do battle for the one against the other.” - John Stuart Mill
What if you raised property taxes with the expectation that the tax isn’t often actually paid? For example, if every piece of real estate had to be traced back to the natural person owner(s) and the property is taxed at the individual level but graduated. Significantly. So no tax at all on the least valuable property you own, 50% tax on the next least valuable property, 100% tax on the next least, etc. With the goal being to significantly disincentivize the hoarding of housing (which is both a necessity and a form of “wealth” building) rather than to collect and redistribute wealth? Even though the ultimate outcome would (hopefully) be redistributed wealth.
That’s exactly my point :) Puncture resistance may be improved with more aggressive tread but handling and rolling resistance will definitely suffer. It’s all about the amount of contact patch on the ground. Same reason why on ice you want to run very shallow tread while on snow or mud you want a very aggressive tire. You can correlate this with slick car race tire vs a rally tire. One is great on road while the other wouldn’t get you far.

For a fun experiment, head out on a wet day and try to corner on both 28mm slicks and 33mm+ tires with a decent amount of tread (bonus points if you use a mud CX tread). Personal experience dictates that aggressive tread will treat you to a good dose of road rash while slicks will continue to grip far longer. I’ve far more experience with this than I should (one should be plenty).
I am absolutely onboard with expressing our dismay at how Tesla altered a core safety feature of our vehicle with neither consent, nor an updated printed owner’s manual (which requires a formal recall).

I’m not onboard with telling them how to respond to that dismay. I know everyone will, but it weakens the problem report and muddies the waters. Filing a bug report without also including suggestions on how to fix the problem is a hard-earned skill for me personally, and I expect I’ll always wish it was more widely utilized by tech folks than it ever will be.
FDA fast track designation has been around long before Covid-19 and any vaccine would have received that designation regardless of operation warp speed.

How does outrage help overcome this challenge. A good chunk of the country stands with the status quo and elites on any given topic.

I don't think outrage changes minds, just engages your base. It also encourages the working masses to lash out at each other. Most outrage topics serve mostly to pit the masses against each other, based on skin color, gender, or who has bigger scraps from the economic table.

If you want real change, the solutions are relatively simple IMHO. Ranked choice voting, proportional representation in senate and congress, and less winner take all closer to a Parliament.
More specifically, when it comes to cargo on highways, weight almost doesn't matter at all with respect to fuel economy.

Adding weight to the bed has nearly zero aerodynamic penalty and so doesn't change mileage much at all as long as the road is level and is not start and go traffic.

Towing on a highway, is primarily an aerodynamic concern because most trailers have the aerodynamics of bricks and are (partially) outside the designed aerodynamic envelope of the rest of the vehicle.

ICE vehicles take a noticeable hit on range when towing, even considering ICEs become more efficient when under moderate loads. There's no reason to hope that EVs won't suffer at least as bad, and 50% range loss is normal in an ICE when towing something large like a camper.
I've been to the Japanese arcades many times, and I'd noticed changes cross the era of machine. A lot of the newer machines are either trying to be some kind of new arcade moba or card-based experience (half or more of which seemed to flop, with entire empty floors). More single player oriented experiences feature a game loop where a small, core element consisting of about 5 minutes costs a 100 yen coin regardless of outcome. For example, the Initial D game where every single race costs 100 yen or the Pokemon game where you pay 100 yen to get into a battle and another coin if you want to actually catch the wild pokemon you beat. It's a move away from the classic model where you would usually pay on losing all your lives which could cost more but was more dependent on player skill. It was a more interactive, more participatory, model. A meritocratic one where being able to beat an entire 30 minute game session of a scrolling shooter on as few coins as possible would be an impressive source of bragging rights. The change absolutely feels like the mobile micro-transaction model extended to coin-op. To me, it narrows the gap between an arcade and a pachinko parlor, so I simply don't feel as compelled to go to arcades.

The perennial fighting games and giant robot battles still pull crowds from their appreciators, as something of the core of the arcade business. That, and the two floors of UFO crane games still seem to hold fairly strong sway from what I've seen. The pandemic situation made things worse for arcades, but like many things that you've heard of many times before it only accelerated an inevitable decline. I think the move here would be first to downsize, then maybe specialize.
I've been a professional user of SBCL and LW. They both have merits.

LW has better package delivery and a stellar GUI tool. LW is otherwise slow and requires non-portable APIs to get reasonable performance for some kinds of low level code.

SBCL is cheaper, way way faster (in almost every dimension), more portable, better integrated with most OS environments, and provides better static diagnostics. It suffers from having a meh garbage collector and meh delivery mechanisms.
I agree, I had the same experience: "it stops right as it was about to pay off."

I had expected it to link me to some piece of software they were launching. Instead, I've taken the three problems outlined to be anti-patterns for my own work which I think I can overcome using the software I've already got.
Isn't the fact that we (as in, society) don't agree that it does affect your life an indication that it's actually a borderline issue, though?

Everyone would agree that a person wandering around the street firing live rounds into targets is acting in a dangerous manner.

No-one would agree that a person drinking a cup of tea in their own house is acting in a dangerous manner.

But coronavirus isn't one of those things. It's genuinely a borderline issue, and not because of the science, but because it's almost exactly on the line in which some people consider it to be a disaster and others consider it to be a bit of a nothing burger.

As a result, you end up in a situation as described by rgrieselhuber below.

Some people think that we need to close (e.g.) schools to stop coronavirus. Other people think that we need to stop caring so much about coronavirus, so that we can go to (e.g.) school.

The question of whether there's misinformation is almost tangential to the point because there are huge numbers of people who do not doubt official statistics or modelling but also believe that data or those models are not severe enough to require us to 'stop the world' so to speak.

I guess my thoughts are that, if we can't even convince each other (and from what I can tell neither of us have really fallen for misinformation), what hope is there for the actual 'vaccines cause 5g' nutjobs?
This seems to be a particularly salient issue in the area of medicine, since many practice but may not actually “do science” unless they’re affiliated with a university or research hospital.

Most doctors are more like engineers than physicists.
Well yes, but no. You want to avoid any systematic bias, which if you reuse tooling/instruments/code, you run the risk of, but source code is also something which can be peer-reviewed.

Reproducing the code base from scratch just isn't going to be tractable for large scientific pieces of software (e.g. CERN).

Better to have the source code and dig through it carefully as part of the review and replication than insist everyone write their own cleanroom copy just to avoid systematic bias.
Better the devil you know. Many companies like to hire people that worked at other big tech companies before instead of a small company that might be totally different.
There are a lot of publications I disagree with politically but still find value in them so long as they argue in good faith. Strong Towns and the work of Charles Marohn is one good example of this, he leans conservative but a lot of his work is apolitical and focused on city design and solving the housing crisis, which has value regardless of what affiliation you have.

This article is similar. Free trade is a good thing, but right now we're seeing an influx of foreign firms and capture of key industries and supply chain stops by foreign authorities. Rebuilding a strong American private and public sector and re-diversifying our economy by not having it based solely on the service part is a fairly noble goal, and I do agree with the author that OWS is a massive success story that offers some elucidating details that could help rebuild our infrastructure and lead to more effective public-private partnerships.
> Sometimes it feels like every innovation of the last 15 years has been a step backwards.

That's because most of our recent consumer tech "innovations" don't first serve to make users' lives better, but to make shareholders wealthier. Users are an afterthought or acceptable collateral damage.
From a social psychology perspective, censorship is known to increase interest in whatever you ban or try to withhold. Censorship also interferes with educating people and helping them improve their understanding.

People often learn their understanding is flawed by saying something "stupid" and getting a response to that. Censorship fosters a climate of fear where people are less likely to say the "dumb" thing and get it explained.

A good policy with raising children is "There are no bad questions. You can ask (parent) anything and will not get in trouble, even if the answer is Wow, that's a really bad word and means (something bad). Please don't use that at school or I will get called by the teacher."

>I’d be willing to bet that most people with the gall to do their own research will look beyond the first result that appears on the SERP...

Once again this is thinking that doesn't go beyond the first layer. If this situation is possible for the first link, it is possible for the second and the third and everything on the first 5 pages. However deep this hypothetical researcher is willing to go, if there are enough billions at stake the manipulator can keep pumping out misinformation. They have a financial incentive to lie and no one has a strong financial incentive for truth so how does this researcher find the needle of truth in the haystack of lies?

> The headline says "pillaging," which is a kind of stealing by force. But actually (as the less editorialized HN headline says) what the US companies are doing is hiring Latin America's tech talent, paying a fair price instead of the shitty prices Latin American companies are used to paying. Unsurprisingly these companies think of Latin American developers as their property, so they see it as "pillaging". Because I'm a liberal I don't see it that way.

> Governments often also see this as "pillaging", since they're answerable to powerful company founders who lose out, not the everyday people who benefit. In a lot of cases they put major roadblocks in the way of people who export technical services in this way.

There are salary differences w.r.t. Europe and the US as well but no one uses such language.

OFX is the closest to being universal, although often it is well hidden.

CSV feeds are often surprisingly useless for programmatic / feed use, they're often littered with stupid textual headers and footers and lack important columns - they're designed to be opened in excel and looked at by a human, not parsed and ingested.
Whether a particular person objects to a particular update does not affect the validity of a general rule that safety-related changes should require oversight and/or consent. Those rules exist to protect all users, and even other drivers on the road who could be affected when unintended actions or unnecessary distraction cause an accident. Maybe you haven't been burnt yourself yet, but regulating such changes is what keeps you from getting burnt next time.

As for the water bottle vs. rotating weight, I noted that as well. Which is why I compared dropping 100-200g of rotating weight (tires) to dropping a 500-750mL water bottle. It is a very rough comparison, I haven’t ever done the math to figure out how close they are, but I suspect it is close enough. Even 200g of rotating weight isn’t THAT significant when you consider the likelihood your pair of wheels weigh 2500g+ (assuming low end box wheels since we are discussing wire beads).
That's not operation Warp speed. That's pandemic 101 from the WHO.

And it's not reduced trials, it's doing them simultaneously.

Still, with so much app-level code running in the same process with the encryption layer, any bug in that compromises security.
For example, by raising the new registration price to $1,000,000,000. Then, the DAO can register it at zero cost (it will get 100% of the fee refunded instantly), but anybody else would have to pay sticker price.

I believe there's also more complex schemes, where you directly restrict who can register it, but I'm not sure about those.
> actually has caused them to flat out refuse to do some work which in my opinion is an opportunity to make things better for the company

What were the consequences for them of flat out refusing to do that work? What would the consequences be for you if you were to flat out refuse to do something similar? If they would be worse for you, as I suspect, that means their bargaining position is better than yours.

What does your management believe the consequences for them (the management) would be if the ERP company stopped working for them entirely, for example because they got out of the ERP market? What does your management believe the consequences for them would be if you quit? If they would be worse in the first case, as I suspect, that means their bargaining position is better than yours.

This is only loosely connected with how much value each of you actually contributes, which is what matters most in a moral sense. Unfortunately, how that value is distributed among stakeholders usually has more to do with how negotiations go than with how the value is created. Indeed, it's common for negotiations to happen in cases where the net value produced is actually negative, as in lawsuit settlement negotiations, and the question is not so much how to split the winnings as how to split the losses.
Did you read your link?

> Sturgeon's law (or Sturgeon's revelation) is an adage stating "ninety percent of everything is crap."

> Sturgeon deemed Sturgeon's law to mean "nothing is always absolutely so" in the story "The Claustrophile" in a 1956 issue of Galaxy. The second adage, variously rendered as "ninety percent of everything is crud" or "ninety percent of everything is crap", was known as "Sturgeon's Revelation", formulated as such in his book review column for Venture in 1957. However, almost all modern uses of the term Sturgeon's law refer to the second, including the definition listed in the Oxford English Dictionary.

They've pushed updates that introduced phantom braking. Now is it a problem?

They pushed a fix. Well, good. (Although given how quick the fix came out, I worry about the lack of testing).

Oh, now there's a slightly different phantom braking issue.

There's potential for significant problems (particularly with Tesla's ... laissez-faire ... attitude to certain things), as well as benefits.

Accept that there is no source of info you can just believe at face value.

You need to collect information from across your infosphere and intensively de-bias and cross-check it.

It'll take a lot of effort. If that's not worth it to you, go agnostic on things you don't have time to figure out, or join a tribe and shout the slogans with your tribe-friends. Your life choices will depend on your values.
Based on observations, it looks like the proof of stake network will drop Ethereum's energy usage by about 99.95%.

https://blog.ethereum.org/2021/05/18/country-power-no-more/

It can do this because it doesn't rely on any sort of "work." It's just another internet protocol.

Proof of stake doesn't have anything to do with tps, so that won't change significantly. The solutions to that are rollups (second layers that inherit the full security of the main chain) and sharding (which multiplies the capacity of rollups). Some rollup systems are in production today, capable of a couple thousand tps. According to the most recent plan I saw, sharding would multiply that by twenty, initially.
That's not related to Warp speed.

Those are subsidies for eg. doing simultaneous clinical trials and to compensate it's additional costs.
A tale as old as time. “We won’t abandon the business. We’re just changing our focus.”
> Isn't that an economic problem rather than a scientific one?

I'll add the other sentence from the first paragraph of the source above.

>Because the reproducibility of empirical results is an essential part of the scientific method, such failures undermine the credibility of theories building on them and potentially of substantial parts of scientific knowledge.
A lot of poorer students don’t get any homework help at home. None. Their parents are working several jobs and don’t have time. Some of the parents might not have the ability. If you had two identically intelligent and capable students and one gets thirty minutes of one-on-one homework help from a parent every day after school and the other didn’t I can definitely imagine there would be a significant difference how much they’ve each learned by the time the school year ends.
Hilarious. I had no idea Azure AD wasn’t actually AD, but actually uhh, more like OneLogin? lol
The salary differences are smaller, in large part because the governments have taken very different policies over the last century. Latin American governments are, by and large, continuing with the policies that have been producing economic disasters throughout that century, though Argentina is among the worse cases.

Also, though, the US does have a history of actually pillaging Latin American countries. Like, with soldiers. By contrast, the last time the US invaded Europe there was a surprising lack of pillaging.
Are these actual GDPR takedowns causing accounts to be banned, or are these via the internal copyright enforcement systems implemented so that actual legal GDPR requests don't have to be sent (with all the strings attached to those). ie. Banned because of GDPR (giving you rights) or banned because of violating Terms of Service (giving you no rights in almost all TOS)?
I thought the Koreans took over the rhythm game arcade business for the most part? All the surviving arcades I’ve been to in the states in recent years have only had Korean rhythm games on hand. I hope Konami hasn’t given up on the genre, or maybe the future is just beat saber (now owned by Meta).
I hire through a contracting agency that prescreens for me. I do a short behavioral interview then hire. And I wouldn’t call them cheap, I pay many of them more than I’ve made in the US in the last 10 years
A good portion? How much? What impact on the body are you referring to? How is the digestion different?

I would love to engage, but I have nothing to engage with. Yes, fiber impacts digestion, which has nothing to do with metabolic pathways. But even such, high sugar fruits have similar GIs to HFCS...the digestive impact of fiber is relatively small (compared to fats and amino acids, especially non glucogenic).
