I guess? Dude's my age, and it's becoming clear to me that a lot of my contemporaries are losing their ability to adapt even faster than I am. I think it's fine for him to question it for him, or maybe for his demographic, but I think it's a mistake to universalize that.

Maybe I'm just lucky here. I found the BBS scene when I was ~12, so remote communication has been an important part of my social life since before my voice changed. So maybe I have less adaptation to do.

But either way, I don't think my fellow olds should be judging technology as if our experience is universal. If I want to know the true limits of remote collaboration, I'm going to look at the 12-25 demographic segment, as they have a lot less to unlearn than people my age.
Snagit has been my go-to screenshotting/documentation tool for 3+ years.

It's not free, but it's the best thing I've found for being able to quickly take screenshots & annotate them - it's got better annotation tools than anything else I've used. It can also record video clips & save w/ relatively small file size (to give a quick walkthrough of a software feature or plainly show replication steps for a problem).
Racket's programmability goes far beyond Julia's. Racket is really a platform for programming languages rather than being primarily a programming language. For an example of what this looks like in practice, check out Rosette, a programming language in Racket which completely changes the semantics to work transparently with tooling like Z3.
Interesting. Maybe there is a delay then? I know that when a comment I make is up or down voted, it accrues directly to my total karma.
You're thinking of Tic-Tac-Toe.

sorry that you haven't had luck with the method I use, but glad you found a good one for your practice. I've been growing fruit trees in Florida successfully as I described for over 10 years and 200+ growths and grafts.

How about making it illegal for a state official to explicitly make credible threats to use unjustified state violence against someone? Similar to how it’s illegal for anyone to make credible threats of unjustified violence against anyone else.
I wonder how they're doing this in AU, can't see any info about APRA registration as an ADI/ERS user...
The fact that you can make all of these points in a public forum, or even within earshot of the wrong neighbors or coworkers, without being dragged out of your house at 3 AM and shoved into the back of a van, never to be seen again, is why we're better than the Soviets were.

Admittedly that's not a high bar to clear, but... we're over it.

> What you buy is your business. Your transactions are confidential—and aren't shared to your Newsfeed—unless you choose to share them.

So yeah. Confidentiality is defined as "not shared on your Newsfeed". Safe to assume Facebook is going to milk this data for all it's worth.

There are also some other whoppers:

Yes exactly. These scenarios assume some perfect world where, in the spur of the moment, you have guarantees of your actions. In the real world we can't guarantee a fat man will stop this train. In the real world, does you causing torture to save 5 people cause downstream future effects that actually make the world worse?

Say I tortured someone to save 5 people. Sure, 5 people would be saved and the argument this website makes says that where we stop. But what about the future consequences of you causing torture? The person you tortured comes back later and kills others because of the psychological harm you caused. Or the media makes you a hero and people start to think "Hmm torture, not that bad of a thing.".

If we are maximizing happiness for the largest group of people, we need to think about it over the largest span of time. And that's when things get really uncertain and murky.
Sure, but there's obviously ambiguity here for some, so it needs to be remediated.
As someone said in the comments, the results have to be cherry picked, but the cherry picking is at a pretty low level. I run an AI guru bit at https://twitter.com/guru_ai and I manually select the output. But most of the times, the AI does a pretty good job.

That said, it will be a reach to say that the AI has a sense of humour. Because fundamentally the AI does not know how to laugh.

For example, the AI sticks to the script. Let's say you are having a serious discussion, it will not crack a joke to break the tension.

Amazon offers bare-metal hardware, to my knowledge. I think MacStadium does too.
It definitely does look like they're gating access to this making it like an exclusive club.

I am not personally opposed to that strategy since there's a behemoth of a player (Airbnb) this category already.

They have to play it differently to make it.
They promise they won't force-publish your payments to your news feed. So generous!
I’ve never seen any such thing on TikTok. Also, I assume you mean “allowed.”
I was wondering whether this could trigger a non confidence vote. This is literally the weakest I have ever seen a Canadian prime minister - but there would be no clear winner from another election given the mess the other parties are in. Honestly I think Jagmeet Singh could pivot the NDP to actually supporting working people again and take it, he is the best leader from a personal perspective right now
> He explained exactly why he believes it is worse: the lack of information to be collected by the various senses.

Yes, but he left out the most important part: why he thinks that extra information is important.

He does leave a clue: at one point he says his ability to "read the room" is mostly lost.

The subtext to this is that he's a manager, and his job is not just cranking out technical content, it's managing people and processes to achieve a larger goal. And his ability to do that is impaired by the much reduced information he's able to get from other people in a video call as opposed to an in person meeting.

My personal response is, this mode of working isn't going away because too many people have realized how many upsides it has as compared to a daily commute to an office and having to be in that office every day. So people who were depending on the extra information that was available in that office environment are just going to have to learn how to operate without it.
http2's biggest advantage is it's multiplexed over a single tcp connection. So if your site has a bunch of resources on it, then http2 will allow your clients to request all their required resources at once without establishing a bunch of TCP connections.

Browsers allow for somewhere around 6 simultaneous TCP connections (which means around 6 concurrent requests with http1.1). Http2 allows for http requests at the speed of the clients upload connection (effectively unlimited).
For personal life, I agree that in person time is better: I spent five hours of 1:1 time today with two friends and watched streaming media with my wife tonight, more 1:1 time. That is personal life.

For work life, I think zoom is fine. Information is shared, business gets done. Zoom is good enough for work.

It became a coup attempt the moment someone shouted "Hang Mike Pence." But yes, fortunately, it was precisely the sort of laughably-botched coup attempt you'd expect from Trump and his supporters. We won't be so lucky next time.

By the way, SQLite started out as a TCL extension. It works really well in TCL and good old TCL/TK/SQLite gets CRUD done fast. I almost feel bad looking so heroic.
Under "Room Settings -> Security & Privacy -> Who can ready history?" do you have "Anyone" set? I believe this controls whether it can be indexed or not, as if you have it on any of the "Members only" settings, their bot needs to be in the room for it to see history.

At the end of the day stocks represent shares in actual companies that make profits and losses. Obviously this doesn't prevent speculative bubbles (exhibit A: GME), but sooner or later the tide goes out and we'll find out who's been swimming naked.
The small print is scary, at least compared to a service like PayPal. There's absolutely no consumer protection unless you're actually buying something from Facebook themselves, and for any kind of returns or refunds the advice given is "contact your bank".

Yikes.
Has there been any work in the distro related to 3d UI stuff? Maybe a 3d representation of the file system, for example. Anything related to facilitating shared virtual spaces?

For the future, have you looked into micro LED displays with waveguide optics? It seems like the thing that is going to allow for glasses-style VR/AR.

To me it's a no-brainer to tether that type of display to a phone. Could just use a long cable going to a pocket or hang the phone around the neck etc.
What does it matter what the video represents? The point of meeting is to communicate thoughts. As long as the idea gets across, who cares if they have video enabled or what the video looks like compared to real life?

> It still takes discipline to turn away great candidates who insist on remote first

I think this is very good. Hybrid teams are worse than fully on- or off-site teams. The remote employees always end up as second-class. I think that each team should be one or the other, all the way.
I guess they've reached Google-levels of product management when their payment system used across 4 products is named after only one of them. Another Hangouts in the making.
It's not great, it just has the most users, so it's better just due to the network effect. From a usability standpoint it sucks.
> For extra security, set up a PIN, face ID or fingerprint to confirm a payment at checkout.

This doesn’t sound appealing to me. They’re surely storing this biometric data on a server somewhere, right? I use FaceID or my Apple Watch to pay with ApplePay all the time but my biometrics never leave my device.

I don’t follow Facebook all that closely (never used any of its services). Do they have other services that use (require?) face or fingerprint identification? Or is Facebook Pay a sly way for them to start harvesting this data?
It's just a hunch, but I think almost every major change Google has made to the service for many years is in hopes of reducing active users. It's why I hung onto my hotmail account as well, even though MSFT is doing the same thing in slightly less agresive and dramatic ways.

Gmail storage being reduced with a subscription service suddenly being in place, when it's vitally linked to years of saved user data on phones is a clue, so is the fact that both Gmail and Hotmail don't clearly show originating emails fully on messages so that users can double check identities of email senders.

We're in an age of extortionware with absolutely no consumer voice nor congressional defense, and even though subscription fees seem low right now, they'll only increase as users complain, and there will be no choice but to submit to it all.

I don't really get spam, because I signed up for their advanced storage feature, God have mercy on me if I ever decide to switch to iPhone, because most phones no longer support SD cards.

I think my next move will be to downgrade to older hardware, and to avoid all of the great new tech that serves their interests more than me. I'm really worn out on the festering parasitic behavior of these companies, it's a trap.
Had some great times in college playing Risk. We would set up three or four boards in different rooms and each player was separated and couldn't see each other. We then had "scouts" who went between rooms to provide limited reports about the other armies.

Yes. It was a public webpage. They sent a normal request and received a normal response. That response just so happen to contain Base64 encoded SSNs in the page state.

There's no actual legal merit to any argument that this was unauthorized computer access. Suggesting that decoding base64 is somehow "hacking" is nonsense.
Facebook should have dominated the payments space. It failed. Every few years they announce new payments products and strategy. Nothing fundamentally changes.

Ooh, this is a good point. My remote-work experience has been less manager-focused, more about worker-to-worker collaboration around goals. I wonder if what he experiences as reduced information is telling us something about the whole notion of management going forward.

I don't buy it. I remember real meetings. They were far more exhausting than any zoom call. Completely draining.

I guess the novelty of shuffling rooms every 45 minutes is enough to keep some people feeling "active". Or perhaps some people find it "exciting" to frantically have everyone check if there are any other nearby conference rooms with space since we're getting kicked out of this one because, unlike with a video call, the fact that everyone was "running 5 minutes late" cut into an actually scarce physical resource.

But here's my hot take: that feeling you have in video calls? It's you realizing for the first time what a meeting actually is: a waste of time. Without the chit chat and running across the hall, or the sky-high concentrated CO2 clouding your judgement, the meeting is distilled to its purest form. Since you're at home, "going to the meeting" isn't an excuse to escape your current surroundings. And since you're not walking there, the calories being burned aren't there to make you feel artificially productive when nothing meaningful took place. You're just finally seeing those 45 minutes slotted haphazardly into the middle of your day for what they really are. A waste of time.
All wars are economic in nature. Scarce resources and growth are at odds. Some societies have been peaceful and found balance in the resource usage. They tend to get overran one way or another.

Yes, which is why iPhones/iPads get compromised. Apple's update process may be able to restore some integrity to the system.

I feel you, but VR can still be used outside "privately" in places like backyards and urban/apt balconies. At least was more what we were thinking =]
I can't speak for Channels itself, but I'm quite comfortable that my use of it is not exotic, so is less likely to hit rough edges. The pattern of use I have chosen (having each websocket endpoint subscribe to layer groups based on the model instances the form is using) means it's quite clean.

Remember that this is not a SPA, so websockets are recreated each time a page containing models marked for dynamic updates is served. This means there should be fewer problems associated with long-lived connections, and any instability will have more limited impact.
Not that I know of, the sign-in will just fail because Apple refuses connections from these.

Comfort is subjective, but here's things that all contribute to it:

* Main heat generation is on the back of the head and pointed away from you

* If it's still required, active airflow for the user in the front of the headset

* Weight will be balanced

* IPD is auto-adjusted, so there's no chance of having the wrong setting and hurting your eyes.

* Better optical quality leads to less eye strain

* Adjustable padding

That being said, I'm not a Quest 2 user. I don't know what things it does wrong, so it's possible I missed a feature that we have and didn't list.
I think coding, in particular, is probably the best possible scenario for remote work. Your job is interfacing with a computer, people are just a distraction.

But a business is a lot more than just coders.
Unfortunate because people are innocent until proven guilty, so we cannot (US, constitutionally) and should not be making determinations about how easy it should be to assert a constitutional right to legal counsel.

Constitutional rights should be very easy to exercise and very difficult to limit. And in these scenarios, regarding the possibility that criminals might find an easier time getting legal help, you must consider part of the founding philosophy of the US legal system, a portion borrowed from England's William Blackstone: it is better that 10 guilty persons escape, than that 1 innocent suffer.

Or, as codified by precedent from the US Supreme Court some time later in 1895, "it is better to let the crime of a guilty person go unpunished than to condemn the innocent".

To make it harder to get a lawyer because the person might be guilty... or having police or prosecutors make their own individual determinations on that difficulty based on their own subjective belief in the suspect's probability of guilt... Those are antithetical to the principals that founded the US legal system, and antithetical to the rule of law superceding the rule of men.

So there does not need to be a balance, at least not beyond the constitution and corresponding precedent-based legal doctrine. The entire point is that it should be very difficult to strip away a person's freedom. The job of police is not supposed to be easy. If a suspect that has not been found guilty wants the benefit of legal counsel then they are entitled to it. The job of police should not be made easier at the cost of losing fundamental rights.

I like the features in Microsoft OneNote (web/desktop apps, cross-platform, nested sections/pages, cross-linking between pages, free-form doodles and formatted text). And all of that is free.

> But, if I end up just getting people to learn how to start a Slack DM with a question instead of just "Hi! Are you there?", well, that will also be progress.

Why does this piss me off so much? I mean, the Slack thing. There are half a dozen people who DM me each day with "Hi." or "Good morning". ...And nothing else. Those messages fill me with instant dread. Oh God what are they going to ask me now?, or, fuckin' out with it, yeah?

I'm pretty sure it's because I'm right, and they know what they're headed towards will be a slog. So better to trap me by having me respond first ("Hi, what's up?"). Now that I've responded, THEY GOT ME! Without knowing the subject matter, I'm committed to a discussion about it.[0]

Contrast this with those compose an actual message. ("Morning. Quick question, how many modifiers are we allowed to comp on the widgets this year before we need the TPS Approval Team to get involved?", or "Hi. Can you update the stats today for tomorrow's meeting?") Those are fantastic. If it's a simple question, I can respond instantly without losing flow or whatever. If it's a complicated question, I can respond instantly with "I'll find out by COB tomorrow", or maybe it's complicated and also aligned with what I'm working on, so I pick up the phone and call them right then. I have options.

But the "hi" with no context or further messages? I just flat out ignore those now. Hopefully I'll be getting people to learn how to start a DM with a question.

[0] Hmm, I just got an idea. I'm going to start DMs with "Promise you won't get mad." :P
