Nice. I read a little about this, that breeding had selected for looks over flavor in the super market. My partner and I have become the people that rave about their farmer's market produce because of this; it really is a night and day difference compared to the grocery store.
The canonical example I've heard of from Googlers is "yoga pants", though that's out of date. Go with something that's trendy this year.

With any luck, they'll think you have a rich significant othet. I somehow accidentally convinced them I have a mistress with a taste for $600 machine washable silk pyjamas (there is apparently a company that specializes in only that!)

I'd even say it's most always 2. If people don't want it, then your marketing just failed to attract the matching customers. Instead, there is also the case of a poor executed product. It's something people want, but can't use because it's not good enough for what it aims to deliver. I guess everyone knows those cases of software which are 90%+ matching their demand, but missing that one little detail which makes them unattractive as a whole.
This is something my team is struggling with at the moment. Gitlab issues (and Github issues, and similar) are fine if what you're doing is only software development. The problem is that Jira works really well for tracking all the things, not just 'bugs in our current software', and having something that keeps track of all the work in one place makes life a lot easier.

Right now, my team uses Jira for tracking bugs and features and whatnot in our custom software development. We also use it for tracking issues and work related to our infrastructure, access requests to our various data centers, budget requests from the team, software and change management planning, site audits, and probably a couple other things I'm forgetting off the top of my head. And yes, there are likely better products for each of those things individually, but then you wind up in the hell of "oh wait, audits go over here in Freebly, but software releases are over there in FrobniTZr", and if you run those tools it's suddenly fifty-leven more hosts and apps to support and keep patched.

Much like Excel, Jira might not be the best tool for all our use cases, but it's pretty good at several of them and good enough at the rest that having everything in one bucket outweighs the potential benefits of a better tool.

On the other hand, if someone would like to fire up a start-up to develop a similarly flexible on-premises work management product to replace it, you'll absolutely find me in line with my wallet open...
You're not making any sense. The Spotify Platform Rules don't mention anything about "political propaganda" or "harmful propaganda", as per your original comment above. So what was your point exactly?

Same with other subjects, I used to hate my history class in elementary school. It was a chore, as just say, to have to remember dates for things I didn’t really care about. Later in life, I became a history lover after finding really interesting subjects.
SORBS got away with it for years and profited nicely in the end.
The recommendation I received was to store produce the same way your grocery store does. They've spent a lot of time and effort on this, so their method probably works. Sorry I can't address the real meat of your question though.

A huge portion of many countries' economic activity happens outside the reach of their governments. This is the present reality, not some anarchist dream.

In this context, people are free to use the currency they prefer.
I think you missed the point about issuing new shares. Everyone doesn't end up diluted in that case.
You're confusing the US's requirement for religious freedom with the education model. It's not like you're forced to pick a school that teaches things you don't agree with.

For every one of these schools teaching kids religious nonsense that is clearly wrong, there is some other school using that freedom to try alternative ways of running classroom. If you don't allow this you end up with a pretty rigid system that basically everyone but educational board members hates, like the Common Core requirements that are so tight that teachers basically have to design their entire quarter around them.

Blacklisting an ISP's ASN or entire network range because the blacklist creator set an arbitrary threshold of acceptable number of spam activity from 1 or more IPs. I'm really not sure about the legal aspects here, but there are so many practices that blatantly approach extortion. And it's skillfully done in the name of "online etiquette" or a "safe internet".

Obviously, legitimate use-cases exist for such services, provided that they are operated faithfully by people/entities with some level of credibility.

Whether or not Spam is legal, many (or most) service providers list it as prohibited in their SLA (Service-Level Agreement). Depending on the type of setup they run--the clientele; company focus/prioritization of ROI--they forward complaints to the account owners, with the understanding that the activity must be stopped. Again, this depends on the service provider, especially as you start thinking on a more granular level. E.g. they can have automated systems handling much of this, or they may have employees handle the communications and provide help to their clients in thwarting such activity. Generally, though, the account owners need to balance the security with compatibility--or the uptime and short-term performance of their services.

Ultimately, however, some of these spam block-lists--UCEPROTECTL3 in particular--are blatantly using a sledge-hammer approach for little benefit to any of their users, in the hopes of spurring controversy; or fear that leads to customers; or outrage from customers toward the service providers. In the end, the intention is purely to get paid, either by clients who sign up for their service or by the internet service providers that can't wait multiple days or weeks until their network gets de-listed. Their accusatory and aggressive language conveys to people that they must be associated with either some amateur company or one that uses, and knowingly profits from, nefarious practices and shady characters if they somehow ended up on their list.

Depending on where you stand, it can be seen as deplorable or underhanded behavior maybe even rising to the level extortion, or it can be considered a shrewd business tactic.
In abstract theory, in the US - you get to elect the president who nominates folks at the central bank and congress (again, elected) confirms them.

I agree with you in reality though. The average person have 0 input in the monetary policy in America or Europe.

The overwhelming majority of those deaths are not from breakthroughs of double vaccinated or boosted people. So the prior vaccination effort has reached its plateau of interest and efficacy, and thats going to be good enough. As in, it will have to be good enough because thats whats happening.

Everyone’s made their bed.

So to ask more of the actually compliant people - most of which wouldn't have ever noticed they had covid even during unvaccinated hardcore delta times - is not really that convincing. Even the fear of “long covid” has dissipated, as it looks like that will never be quantified and both vaccinated and unvaccinated have experience with actual covid by now. Add in a slight and unnecessary myocarditis risk and that introduces just enough unnecessary downside to make another shot from two seasonal covids ago a hard pass.
I hear you man. I've had two shots already, and I'll have a booster as soon as I can catch the bartender's attention.
I agree it's dangerous not only for civil society, but also against other nation states. I have wondered why the TLAs seem enamored of this sort of anti-encryption legislation (since presumably they are the likely only technical enough members to write and promote it). My best guess is not that they "hate freedom" or that they are "compromised agents of a foreign power", but simply that they are fighting the last battle. The older cold war generation has retired, and people in positions of power within the TLAs are simply so consumed by foreign terrorist threats, that they aren't thinking about the fact that if they can read (and forge) these communications, then so can our geopolitical adversaries. Furthermore, the possible disruption of our entire economic (banking) and political system are made possible by such a vulnerability.
Hi all!

If you go to scihub and type in the name of the article you can download a pdf

https://sci-hub.41610.org/amp

The point is to avoid breaking things. New versions remove or change APIs which breaks things.

Even when interface is preserved, implementation changes can break things. The new software may have a side effect that changes state somewhere and break things.

Even something you think is an an independent island can break things. Because you might be using that island and it is therefore no longer an island but a dependency. Software can invoke a browser and expect it to be able to receive certain messages.

Maybe it really is an island. A video game that mutates nothing, is used by no other software and is purely for human use. Maybe you are enjoying an RPG, but the devs decide to "balance" the power of some characters and it ruins the play style you were enjoying.

There's trade offs to all things of course. But you can't have your cake and eat it to.
What an odd viewpoint. The article is factual reporting on what's happening, and includes a statement from one of they key parties. This statement will obviously have been vetted or written by a PR person who works for that party.

Journalism regularly includes quotes from parties involved without accusation of dimishment of quality; In fact it's more common for journalists to face criticism for _not_ having taken statements from parties.

The article shows no opinion of either party being "good" or "bad".

> If a Google account invites you, the invite still lands in your old calendar for example - even if that's not where your domains MX records point.

Same thing happens with iCloud. Let’s say your iCloud account is ‘bob@example.com’ but that email (and preferred calendar) is hosted elsewhere. If someone using iCloud calendar sends bob@example.com a calendar invite, it will go you your iCloud calendar whether or not you want it to.
It would be awesome if researchers documented not only the vulnerabilities they find, but also all the software they analyzed without any findings, and how they analyzed it. It would save the community from re-doing the same analysis and maybe suggest what else other researchers might have missed. (This is not really different from the real need to publish negative results in science.)
Why would a section of an American act have any bearing on an Australian legal case?
I've almost exclusively experienced and heard of coding being taught as plain English concepts (even in countries where English is not the primary language), so it's not exactly some rare commentary made only by coding elitists.

The reality is that programming languages have historically been designed as left-to-right sequences of nouns, verbs and adjectives, in a way that mimics the sentence organization of English. Certain words may be replaced with special characters, but it still reads the same.
Sounds like a model specific issue and not a fundamental android issue. I've had quite a few phones and none had this particular issue.
Bitcoin without any way to exchange it to some other currency makes it worthless.

We're having this struggle right now trying to replace Confluence thanks to Atlassian's "no more Server licenses" foot-gun. The other wiki software that's out there just hasn't impressed me so far. This one is painful to set up and keep running, that one is awful to edit anything in (especially if you're non-technical), most of them don't support collaborative editing or inclusion of Office doc content on pages, and that's before the fun places where we've integrated Jira and Confluence to make workflows easier. I keep hoping to find something under a rock that really wows me (or that one of the existing competitors will really step their game up to pick up the people exiting Atlassian).
I agree. It is one of the first UI’s used by people new to Ubuntu and it is pretty bad. I gave up on it and use command line tools instead.
> The cases are not comparable because if an at-will employee loses a job with one employer, the employee can often find a job with another employer.

And so can anyone fired for not begin vaccinated, since there are many more jobs that don't require a vaccine than those that do.

> The cases are not comparable because, as far as I know, there is no testing option in the Canadian regulation.

It depends which jobs we're talking about. Make so mistake, this "trucker" protest has been coopted by basically anyone mad about vaccines. So for instance Alberta healthcare workers do not have to get vaccinated, but are subject to periodic testing instead.
This has been my argument for years. If companies are not able to moderate their content then they should not be allowed to grow.
The problem with all this "driven by necessity" crap is that if you let it run its course it turns into an authoritarian dump. At some point you need to put down your foot and say "common resources can be used by everyone even in uncommon ways"

It was launched at the height of AIM/MSN Messenger/etc. I thought we could charge $1/£1/€1 per picture.

Two things: none of our target market had money (you could pay by SMS as well as card, but no-one was doing that), and the avatars just weren't attractive - the women wanted ones that looked like dolls, not weird cartoons. Tried pivoting to AdSense supported and make about $30 a month IIRC.
If they receive public money, they may not introduce religious concepts into science courses. A chain of charters in Texas does indeed seem to be working around the ban on religious doctrine, a ban tested in court, by using tricky language e.g. "Evolution is one theory; there are competing theories." However sooner or later they'll probably be taken to court and lose. Probably nationwide, 99% of charter schools are secular and do indeed teach proper broadly accepted science and other subjects.

So according to these sources, Canadian truckers don't have to be vaccinated. They just have to quarantine if they have symptomatic COVID.

The first link says "On Wednesday evening, a Canadian Border Services Agency spokesperson said truckers would remain exempt from vaccination, testing and quarantine rules — a reversal from what the government had said publicly just hours before."

My top hit on the search is a primary government source stating that: "A Canadian truck driver who is not fully vaccinated can't be denied entry into Canada—Canadian citizens, persons registered as Indians under the Indian Act and permanent residents may enter Canada by right. [...] Any individual who is symptomatic upon arrival to Canada will be directed to a Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) official and will be directed to isolate for 10 days from the time they enter Canada. As of January 15, 2022, unvaccinated or partially vaccinated foreign national truck drivers, coming to Canada from the US by land, will be directed back to the United States."
Not at all. I said in an earlier response, no one cares if you hate or want to ban crypto, it’s permissionsless.

It have been you taking the weird authoritarian take of “we must ban a tech because some bad people may use it”. Which is literally true in every technology ever invented.

I don’t think it’s wearing differently. Inciting violence - be it from the left or from the right - is forbidden o most platforms.

I agree with you that in reality there would be bigger backlash if this was applied to the left than the right.
I hope you know contracts usually have more than one line, include other terms, and may not go to the end of time.

For example, if Spotify stops paying Joe Rogan, they are unlikely to remain exclusive. Another example is that they may not have rights to remove episodes, or refuse to air episodes without loosing exclusivity or paying a penalty.

My point is that we don't know what the other terms are of the contract are.
This author is confusing light frequency with color. Color is a physiological and psychological influenced mental perception. What color we see varies from situation to situation and person to person. While we are often unaware of how subjective our perception in response to light is, it is quite subjective. In this context, the only way that I think matters, both black and white are colors. They are perceived and understood in exactly the same way that the frequency of light is perceived.
Wouldn't having a list of un-whitelisted smtp servers also help... or is the concern that the email would be blackholed and simply never be delivered, exposing your scam?

Don't you also want a fake UTF16 version of their email address that bounces... so that everybody else who looks thinks they were in the CC list?

I disagree, I can think of a whole lot of other human flaws that don't fit under the umbrella of perfectionism the author describes. Narcissism, hypocrisy, abuse, violence, anger-issues, being Scottish, etc. Fear of failure/uncertainty seems to be a common thread under the umbrella of perfectionism, as well as an inability to really see ourselves and our conditions for what they really are.

As I was reading the article there were sentences where how I view myself and the reality clashed and it elicited a familiar feeling of avoidance and discomfort. I am not that biased towards action as I'd like to believe. Let me hide from that ugly truth.
Going to be pretty hard to stop people bringing their own flasks of vodka or whiskey.

I enjoy drinks too much on flights, would be better off without them.

Also it's kinda public space, occasionally with little kids - I'd prefer them not to be around alcohol.

Finally, having different areas of economy kinda solves this - half plane for young and ready to party, other half - for quiet and chill. Separate area for kids too. All of this is trivial to solve in booking software.
> This has absolutely nothing to do with someone not wanting to talk to someone else. It has everything to do with some third party having the power to decide whether the other two may communicate.

They have that power specifically people people outsource vetting of whether someone's worth dealing with. I'll repeat, this is all about reputation, and how without reputation you're subject to every anonymous person's abuse. That's not an issue when the total number of people you're dealing with is manageable. It is when the number of people you expect to have to deal with is the population of a small country or the entire world.

> And thus the single most important method of remote communication in the world today, the method that is frequently akin to root access to our online lives, became subject to arbitrary monitoring and interference by huge, powerful organisations with their own interests and negligible regulatory oversight, legal safeguards or accountability to anyone but their shareholders.

Only for those that opted into that system. Gmail does not dictate what mail servers accept your mail, they dictate whether they themselves accept your mail. They just happen to have a userbase in hundreds of millions billions, so a large percent of the people you might want to contact use it. You can blame Gmail all you want, but they're just doing what their users want, which is reliable email without much spam, and that's how they've achieved it. You're not going to get far telling people when you send stuff to them they're required to accept it. The system only worked the way you wanted it when it was small and offenders weren't as anonymous and social punishments worked against them. When everyone's mostly anonymous, that no longer works.

> Do you really not see why this is a problem?

It is a problem, but it's a problem of people choosing to use them. And there's been ways to keep people from reading your emails for decades at this point with GPG, and if you can't trust the other side to buy into that, or to not use a web based email client, then there's nothing you can do about communication with those people anyway.

Should they be monitoring email? No. Would we be better with laws preventing that? Yes. Is that really the same issue as them being so large that by dictating who they will talk with and how they are effectively dictating rules for running a public mail server? No. Separate issues.
