Pretty darn evil. It's even worse because if he sues them to correct the "mistake", then that also makes newer employers less likely to hire him ("he likes to litigate with his employers, and we don't want trouble"), unless they are actually reasonable and dive in to understand what exactly happened.

> "I prefer to use strong typing and proofs to ensure it does not break at runtime"

This has not been my experience with C++ (segfaults etc.) or Java (runtime introspection and exceptions). In ye olde languages compilation seems to be mostly (more than 50%) motivated by performance rather than correctness. Compiled languages have been doing steadily more compile-time work and improving ergonomics lately.
And yet if you asked if they had all of them, almost no one would say so. I have friends who have quit Facebook, I have friends fully dedicated to the Apple ecosystem, I have one or two privacy-focused ones who use Signal, and no protocol other than MMS that can talk to all of them.
Considering the subject, it is at least somewhat amusing that you double posted this.

This ignores the linkage to compensation. Broad inflation leads to people earning more. So if you own your home, you break even on the home (ignoring the downstream effect of having more home equity for your heirs).

But you can reasonably expect to be paid more in 2022/2023 than you would have been in those years had inflation stayed on the 2019 trend line. That will, in turn, make it easier for you to pay your mortgage and increase savings. You essentially get a raise to cover the fact that other peoples' housing costs increased*. That's the crux of the benefit.

* yes, some of your expenses increased as well, but the wage increases you receive need to cover the increase in those expenses PLUS housing expenses because market compensation increases for broad categories of workers, not for your specific household budget. So you still get "for free" the housing-linked part of the inflation adjustments to compensation.

The determination of sex in a biological context is based on chromosomes, hormone levels, and secondary sex characteristics.

For a 101 understanding of biology, by far the most common chromosome possibilities are XX and XY, but XXY is possible, as are mutations in one chromosome that combine pieces of X and Y such that a mix of secondary sex characteristics appear. It's also possible for someone with XX chromosomes to have abnormally high levels of testosterone, or someone with XY chromosomes to have abnormally low levels of testosterone and high levels of estrogen, with results such that a visual inspection would not be able to accurately guess the underlying chromosomes.

Hence, bimodal, not binary.

IMO, increasing gas prices indirectly affect food prices too... since the cost of transportation is linked to fuel prices.
> This is clearly a result of the monetary base expanding at unprecedented levels due to covid (~40% in 2 years).

Or, it's because supply chain disruptions have caused shortages, and there's more demand post-reopening chasing a smaller base of supply.

Japan more than tripled its money supply since 1990 and CPI remained dead-ass flat for thirty years. It's not sufficient to say that an increase in the money supply necessarily leads to an increase in prices. [1, 2]

> So far we've seen crazy asset inflation (weird the market is up 30% from pre-covid levels).

Repeat after me: an increase in the price of assets is not necessarily asset inflation. If each quantity of asset buys you more CPI basket (i.e. returns outpace inflation) then it's an ROI. A real dollar return.

The NASDAQ [5] and S&P 500 [6] P/E ratios are actually roughly in line with historical averages, give or take. Check again. There was a correction recently.

Take Google, for instance. Going into end of 2019, it was trading at $1500/share. Today, $2780. That's 1.85X higher! Crazy right? Well, check their revenues. [3] Just over 1.6X higher (and that's an annual histogram). Google has been trading at the same P/S ratio since 2010, give or take. [4]

Big Tech is reporting some of the best quarterly performance in the history of the world - certainly since the Dutch East India Company, anyways.

Thanks to the COVID response, we very narrowly escaped another lost decade. [7] A few months of inflation means nothing in the long run.

The sad thing is that it doesn't have to be this way, if ads weren't so terrible or intrusive gorhill could be working on something else instead. I'm sure people will point out the upside of browser ads but I speculate that it's a net (!) negative.
There's indeed a tolerance point for most people for...pain. That doesn't make it desirable. Just the fact that you framed it with the world "tolerance" already implies a negative association.

Obviously someone* put that there. It didn't just install itself. Regardless of whether the contractor installed it themselves or not, the reality is it's there now and needs to be removed.

In other words, the analogy still holds regardless of "oh they put it there"

To be pedantic, though. Just because the WMF (through its counsel, presumably) "takes a position", doesn't infer that "therefore" this piece is public domain.

It may well be, but unless the WMF created the piece, it has no standing to declare this. I may well be reading too much into things, but I know also that the WMF has taken "interesting" legal positions on art (a famous recent photo set up by a wildlife photographer where a curious primate, IIRC, wandered up to the camera and depressed the shutter).
This is a totally different question, in this case what matters is that Google can be compelled to release the full IP address by US intelligence agencies.

How to Write Clearly
The key is consent and right to deletion. GDPR is ok with you storing data if the user consents, you list all the data, you list who you share it with, and you have a contract with anyone you share data with so you can comply with a deletion request.

The US government won’t honor deletion requests for any IPs it requests from GA, therefore you can’t comply with GDPR if you use GA.

If you don’t share data it’s much simpler. You collect just what you need to do the processing the user consented to. And you delete it when a user asks.

Edited to add: I should say the 2nd paragraph seems to be the regulator's position. It seems a bit extreme to me and I don’t fully endorse it. But my main point was to try to highlight why most essential and consented processing is unaffected by this ruling.
Should have been "discarding", not sure what happened there.
Following these thoughts, and flipping the argument the other way:

For those of you reading who are against advertising, do you advertise your abilities and skillsets to potential employers that you wish to work for by sending them resumes and requesting meetings? Or do you just put your work on the internet and hope they discover it on their own? Perhaps for big-giant-recognizable names, the second method could work (just like Microsoft doesn't have to advertise Windows, I'm sure if John Carmack tweets an interest to join some startup, the startup would ping him), but for most people, including me, we have to rely on prettifying our resumes to catch the attention of employers.
Sounds like protecting the people by leaving it to them, and (somehow) restricting their internet access if they haven't passed a course in internet jiu-jitsu.

And no: the GDPR isn't just about GA, and it isn't just about the internet; it's about any personal information.
You’re missing the point a little bit. No one is arguing that solar is going to be more expensive than fusion. The point is that fusion is about as far fetched as a lot of technology seem at first. Like microprocessors (billions of transistors?) or medical imaging (put a human into a giant magnetic field to see inside them) or internal combustion engines.

Like I said, oil is up. But it’s not up that much compared to prices we’ve seen in this past decade. I’m not convinced that raising interest rates (and potentially throwing our whole economy into a depression) is the right answer to any of these problems. But it’s a very real answer that a lot of people in this thread seem excited about.
AMD has ARM licenses (IIRC, both architectural and for IP cores) and has shipped an Arm Cortex-A52 SoC in the past (Opteron A1100). If Nintendo really wanted, they might be able to order an Arm SoC from AMD directly. But yeah, going with Samsung would be far more practical.

Problem is, many existing Switch games use some nvidia-specific API (IIRC called "NVN" or whatever) instead of Vulkan.
In food supply, I think the issue is regulatory capture. If you make food in the USA you almost have to have a lawyer on staff to navigate all the regulation. Compliance team sizes are growing in ag. The difficulty of starting up a competing meatpacker plant is getting harder every year. When the ability of entry into food production is harder every year, you don't have to compete on efficiency and it trends toward monopoly.
> This all occurred after I had accepted the job offer and took a long and stressful time.

Same situation for me, which is especially problematic because it's standard practice for offers or start dates of employment in the US to be contingent on the return of a clear background check within the first 30-90 days. Which means you might have already started onboarding to the new role and still be fighting with HireRight (has happened to me 3 times in ~18 years). More annoyingly, HireRight's own databases don't refer to previous points in time when you've corrected their errors, so each time starts from square one.

Great thing too that many companies are applying BS “cost of labor” adjustments if you choose to not work at / near HQ.
I don’t think the childless men is a good thing though. The fact there are more childless men than women by a huge margin doesn’t signal to me that men are withholding - it looks like women are withholding.

As it stands, most women have far greater leverage in romantic relationships than most men. They can easily walk out the door and find a partner the next day. Most men spend much longer looking for someone.

Finally I can get rid of the tagging button in Finder and replace it with a New Folder button. And I can ditch all of those buttons I don't use at the top of the Mail app to keep the "search" bar open at all times.
I too recall that. I suspect it was a boon for the carriers, eating into your MMS quota. At the time though, my plan was unlimited SMS/MMS, so it didn't really matter to me.
In my 4 negotiation experiences, my results when not offering a competing/previous salary have always been better than when a company tries to match a competitor. When a company tries to match, they want to offer the bare minimum over the competition (which often is a minimal increase if the competition is your current company). When I name my own salary companies offer me what I want to be paid.
I'm pretty sure Microsoft 365 is GDPR-compliant and is storing data in whatever jurisdiction you set it up to.

I know we've had a lot of issues with an European company we bought; we're both using Microsoft 365 but they're set up in France. I don't think the IT folks ever figured out how to merge them (even though we probably pay a shitton to MS for support), so those folks keep using their old domain (but we can share documents and whatnot, so at least that's set up).
The company involved stated that if the person was currently employed, they would give the job title (and that while their service would report 'Associate' post employment, if someone cared enough to clarify, they would be able to call them, give identifying information, and they would be able to get job titles from historic data).
I work for a company with hidden internal levels and the only title is “Software Engineer”. It works fine.
The free market isn't perfect, but it's been historically better than centralized economic planning.
Yeah, states usually do grant banks a limited right to create money. But once again, this is not based on hype. These states often have sovereignty, land, allegiance of their citizens, recognized legitimacy, police force, serviceable tax regimes, tanks, etc.

> Advertising is manufactured demand. [...] This business model really needs to stop.

While I don't agree that all forms of advertising is about manufacturing demand (i.e. creating desire for stuff people don't really need), let's assume a significant portion of it is. The huge problem with "stopping this business model" is consumer markets are huge; it's $20T in the US alone, and I imagine a significant part of the whole ecosystem will implode if people only bought things they needed with cash the actually have.

Suggesting we move away from advertising is equivalent to going against the economic status quo. Not saying there's no merit to this (e.g. we can argue the impact on the environment), but it's an incredibly uphill battle.
We have premium subscriptions that show that people value no advertising. I haven't ever seen any premium subscription that shows anyone values advertising. Have you ever seen any subscription that says the user will get more advertisements if they pay more? I think most people would view the concept as ridiculous.

Hulu could have two premium options, one where you pay more for no advertising, and another where you pay more for extra ads. If what you are saying is true, every company is leaving money on the table by ignoring this demographic. I think it's more likely that this demographic doesn't exist in any meaningful way.

How is "There's a lab a few blocks from the virus epicenter which does GoF research on coronaviruses and there's only a small handful of such labs in the whole world. This probably isn't a coincidence." different from "a theory based on data".

So I would say, yes, you are looking at this wrong. Saying, "Well you were right but you couldn't possibly have known because you had insufficient information" is tantamount to believing "no one could possibly draw correct conclusions from less data than I could". Hopefully it's clear why that is wrong.

I'm not a big fan of lesswrong, but here's a pretty influential essay on the extreme version of the phenomenon of drawing conclusions from apparently insufficient data, and how it isn't just coincidence: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/MwQRucYo6BZZwjKE7/einstein-s....

To be clear, I'm not suggesting that everyone who believed this theory is more intelligent. That would be the most absurd thing of all! What I am saying however is that you can't distinguish between the people who believed it because they performed a (very!) minor Einsteinian feat and those who believe it just because they were told and like the theory. But you're better off not going around and calling them all racist or saying they all just guessed, because at least in some cases that isn't true, and would be anti-intellectual.

Most relevant paragraph from link:

"Of course, Einstein did turn out to be right. I try to avoid criticizing people when they are right. If they genuinely deserve criticism, I will not need to wait long for an occasion where they are wrong."
With the way outrage flows unchecked these days can you blame them? Someone can be a C-level one day and the focus of bad press the next day, and the entire world holds their brand accountable. Everyone has a non-binding, non-committal relationship to their employer, and the employer is all too happy to cut-and-run to save face by the plausible ability to say "not our guy", or "this is just a support tech".

It's the 2022 form of "Your call is important to us, sit tight and someone will be with you shortly." It is a viable strategy straight out of the 2022 playbook because it works to "placate and wait" while the news cycle moves on to the next scandal-du-jour.
