I bought an idPNT SP420 off of Facebook market place brand new at a steep discount. Didn't know what I was buying other than it was a thermal label printer for printing shipping labels. I guess I got lucky. This thing works perfectly and I bought a 4-pack of the cheapest labels off of Amazon and it works without issues

The only negative is that it requires a local USB connection and it appears to only have a Windows driver. One of these days I want to try and kludge a RPi3 and CUPS to make it wireless but have yet to do so.

Using rtos and esp-idf doesn't magically protect you from vulns. You will have to deal with security upgrades whatever you do.
It seems that when it comes to sleep tracking, Apple HW is pretty decent, but by no means the best tracker:

There's a big difference if it's being tracked outdoors or indoors - depending on that you can use different technologies. Another thing is if you can use GPS (no local receivers/sender posts needed) or something like UWB - where you need to deliver coverage for your sensors, does not sound feasible for a NASCAR track.

The big players I remember right now are the SMT you mentioned, https://kinexon.com/sports-clients/ (where I worked) and Zebra.
If only some (former?) Mozilla workers setup a workers coop that relies solely on donations to produce a decent web browser... Something like what The Document Foundation did for Libreoffice sounds like a good economic model.

I'd be more than happy to donate 10€/month (though i'm really not rich) to keep business incentives outside of the web in at least one well-supported browser. I'm sure there's other likeminded folks. But donating money to help COs and managers make in a month what i make in several years*? Never.

EDIT: Just to be clear i'm explicitly not talking about Brave which is an advertisement company investing in so-called cryptocurrencies, both of which is a redflag for a web browser (although they have some cool tech to showcase).
Indeed, that link is one of the most popular results in any google search related to this problem. Thanks anyway. Actually, there's a recent comment on it with a new tool that I hadn't seen before. Let's give that a try.
My experience is that not having binding release on the snowboards was effective at turning my horizontal momentum into angular momentum when the edge caught; anchoring and slammed me into the ground [head and all). In skiing it was more "gentle" slide across the surface (of coarse until you hit something like a tree).
Pity, yet we must follow where the evidence leads.

I suspect PRINCIPLE trial (https://www.principletrial.org/) will yield enough to the most skeptical.

Say that you're looking for new opportunities and imply that you're currently happy (or at least not unhappy) but you could be even happier at this exciting new company. See, you're not an unhappy person looking to be happy, no one has time for those people, you're a happy person looking to be ecstatic. Positive spin~

Sometimes, people really are just looking for a change and new opportunities, it's not always spin. That plausibility is what makes it the perfect spin.

I also use Pinboard and also have had no replies to emails.

I actually like the service but I don't use the archive feature. It's minimal, text based and provides rss feeds for most things. It also plays nice with Miniflux.

I'm going to look at ArchiveBox but I hope someone else takes over Pinboard and can give it some proper time and attention
Neat,
Though it does make me wonder if a python parser wont soon become standard in editors. Its just too damned convenient for many things, sure you might be able to come up with a regexp search and replace that does the same thing, but odds are it will take longer than coding a few loops. BASH sucked far too much, and C++ and most languages lacked the convenient filesystem libs required, but python just works and is easy to read and modify. The downsides of python, like the atrocious speed and low maintainability dont matter for scripts you will use just once.
It’s a lot of labor compared to a coat of paint. That’s what makes it expensive. Also a mosaic like this probably does not use uniform tiles, so you’d have to have a massive set or you’d want to restrict yourself to patterns that can use uniform tiles. Still, it’s a lot of work. A robot could do it, but doing it by hand is expensive.
the one theory i read about on the correlation between height and managerial position is that, people's confidence correlate highly with height when they were teenagers (I am assuming that people's height when they are teenagers also highly correlate with their final, adult height), and in a corporate environment, marginally more confident goes a long way -- way more than marginally better at programming or building spreadsheet.

And as someone who is in a bit of a managerial position myself, and having watched many others try to manage to various degree of success, I'd say this translation between confidence to managerial responsibility is a feature not a bug. You really do want to put a confident person in charge if only that others are more inclined to follow her. An adequate plan resolutely executed is much better than a somewhat better plan timidly presented.

The "circular" is clear. But the "square grid" part is not. Why are the circles arranged in a square grid instead of a hexagonal one? Is it property definition difficulty?
I've found the web to be very enjoyable without Javascript. Some sites don't work but fortunately they're usually of the SEO-clickbait kind without any sort of interesting content. I'm already blocked by many providers for using tor, which is a redflag for abusive behavior on their part.

I just wish we had a manifesto, automated test suite, and dedicated search engine for websites that respect their users.

We have about 70 employees and giving them anything else than Apple laptops would probably be a disaster. Our support footprint is tiny in comparison with earlier years. The machines are built so well that we hardly have any failures.

I suppose some people have been unlucky with Apple hardware but it's maybe also due to the perceptions and that seemingly everyone (at least in IT and development) is using a Mac these days.
Somewhat expected. These social media apps rely on people using them. The time limit is a reminder that you are using the app for too long, it's bad for business!
What you describe is a very common beginner mistake (I used to teach snowboarding for years). I'd say it happens to everybody at some point.

The first few days of snowboarding, people fall a lot. I'd recommend learning on days when the snow is fresh and soft.
For what it's worth, I do not have a twitter account but have never seen this popup you are seeing. Likely due to better browser blocking. I'm using FF with UBlock, ABP, and Privacy Badger.

I'm 36 in 4 months and started snowboarding in 2019 and have been every year since. I always wanted to try it and finally got the chance when my brother did it for his stag (Borovets, Bulgaria). It was very tough to start with but once you have a few lessons and get the basics it is so much easier. My biggest issue is going straight, or fast if you will! Lessons lessons lessons would be my one big of advice to anyone struggling.

Instagram is rubbish at dealing with fake / stolen accounts and they are at the centre of a huge number of crypto scams.
The way to get them down quickly seems to be with fake copyright take down notices, because they are also rubbish at validating those.
In this case it could be a genuine take down notices since the poems like are subject to copyright.

You named all the best US state flags; it goes downhill pretty fast from there. Hawaii is okay (but what country are we in again?), and Maryland is an acquired taste. Anything with text is a bad idea, as it’s supposed to be seen from a long distance. California’s flag is recognizable without the text, which can’t be said of the other fifteen with text plus circles on a field azure. Dishonorable mention to the corporate logo that is the Colorado flag.

Hm. We had one 2-digit date earlier this month, previous ones in 2020, 2002 and 2000, and before that... 1999, 1919, 1911, 1888, 1818, 1811, etc.

1-digit ones way back on 1111/11/11, 1111/1/1, 999/9/9, etc. Future ones in 2222, 3333, etc., and then a 11,111 year gap from 11111 to 22222.

> The narrow take is that you're kinda crazy to buy a folding phone but Samsung was selling them so is really on the hook for the inevitable issues.

It's not up to a customer to decide whether a product is "technically" feasible. Lots of things that "seem" impossible or unreasonable are usable and practical, e.g. compact high wattage laptop chargers compared to the absolute _units_ we used to get and still get on cheaper laptop models. The blame here is squarely on samsung; They decided that this product was fit for sale and as a result need to support it, whether or not people who buy it are "kinda crazy"
Chrome with uBlock Origin here, and I've never seen the modal*, so it can't be as simple as that. I'd guess country plays a role. Of course, even without the modal, I often can't find the comments/replies that other people seem to, but that's a different problem.

*Yes, not "model", "modal" as in "mode", but not spelled as in "mode".
I think the closest contemporary equivalent of Steve Jobs is Elon Musk. Clearly egotistically and self-obsessed, but never-the-less a very impressive person who is deeply involved in the details of the everyday running of their company, and is creating things that nobody else could in quite the same way.

Basically the argument is that plant fats are kind of new in our diet and used in huge quantities when compared to historic levels (with perhaps exception of olive oil) and their introduction correlates with rise in diseases that we believe are caused by western diet.

I don't have examples on iOS because i've never used an iPhone, but on MacOS Apple was caught red-handed asking their central server authorization to run 3rd party programs whenever you start an application. It was only discovered because their server failed and programs failed to start:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25074959

I think we can agree this perfectly fits the definition of "spyware"? There's probably countless other examples i'm unaware of, and to be fair Apple is certainly not the only actor engaging in such outrageous behavior (Microsoft is another, perhaps more famous one).

>All because people can't read with a faint horizontal line between coherent thoughts? Or is there something I'm missing?

It's more than just a horizontal line. There are icons and buttons in every post, that is, every couple of sentences. Hover-over popups that obfuscate content. Distractions and irrelevant click-bait content on the side and on the bottom. Embedded media (images, videos) behave poorly. Obfuscated external links. Cookie/sign-in banners that take more space than on other websites. I could probably go on if I took another look, but seeing how Twitter is now forcing me to log-in, I can't.

And I think just about every remotely popular blogging platform works properly on mobile, it's not 2005 anymore. Ads might be a problem on some, I'm not sure. But I bet even with ads it's not as bad as Twitter overall. For testing I opened a Blogspot link now with no adblock and there was just one unobtrusive ad on the side, way better than Twitter in terms of readability.

This environment is running with SCI (https://github.com/babashka/sci) and only in the browser. What you describe might be more suitable for an environment like replit: https://replit.com/new/clojure.

Schneier advice is sound. If you're starting to become famous make accounts with all popular social media. Then post nothing or just say in that account description why you did it. Schneier had to do a LinkedIn account for this reason too:

From TFA:

> Take for example the online hate and real-life violence waged by the so-called incels—men who claim to be “involuntarily celibate.” Their grievances, which are illegitimate and vile, offer a timely reminder that isolated young people are vulnerable to extremism of every sort.

Sure, the "remedies" some incels resort to are illegitimate and vile, but to dismiss their actual grievances as such feels a bit weird after having spent most of a long, long article describing exactly how the incels' grievances arose. Especially apparent in the section on dating apps: The overwhelming majority of guys get absolutely no responses. Sure seems to point towards women being much more choosy than men, which is what I've understood, in a nutshell, the incels' main grievance to be.
Advertising is entirely based on lies. A very accurate finding.
It's true that something has changed and nowadays almost everyone wear helmets. But I don't and won't. I learned (and taught) at a time where people didn't wear helmets. I've probably spent more than 300 days snowboarding and never hurt my head. Sure, it can only be safer to wear one than not wearing one. But I don't think it's "absolutely mandatory". If you're an advanced practitioner and not doing anything crazy, the risk seems low.
I can speak from the chess world, as a coach. I used to believe there was really no such thing as talent largely based on my own experience as I started relatively late, don't consider myself talented, and reached a reasonably high level at the game. I kind of still do think there's no such thing as talent, but that comes with a bunch of asterisks.

If you take two people and expose them to normal training regimens, different people will have different results - and frequently extremely different results. One could argue that the person who performed worse might have performed better if given exposure to a different regimen but in practice I find those that tend to overperform in one regimen tend to overperform in other regimens as well.

The catch is that the outcome is largely predicted by how the student responds to the training itself. The person who finds it interesting and enjoyable is going to dramatically outperform compared to the person who may be highly motivated by an outcome (wanting to become a good player) but doesn't especially enjoy the process - tactical training, game analysis, etc.

And so talent may not just be some innate ability at something but rather an innate preference, which is going to be the product of a million other things, for enjoying certain things. An amusing anecdote in the chess world came from retired World Champion Vladimir Kramnik. He recently casually remarked that now that he's retired he's spending less than 50% of his time with chess, as if as if he was just kicking back and neglecting the game by only dedicating 40% of his life to it.

Obviously there are some genetic factors like the ability to visualize/concentrate/etc that people usually think they are talking about when referring to talent. But the role those play will only start to matter when people reach some level at least vaguely approaching their potential, but they'll never get anywhere near that level without the thousands of hours of work and training that they'll likely never complete without a love of that work itself.

This is probably just a really long-winded way of repeating Thomas Edison, "Genius is 1% inspiration, 99% perspiration." The only catch is whether you have the capacity to put out that 99% perspiration.

> What bothers me is that there _is_ a process for resetting the question in case you've forgotten them, but that very process requires you to know them.

I'll be honest and tell you that I tend to forget the answer to these questions, simply because I don't want to use a simple question/answer set which could be guessed by someone else, but if I use a more elaborate answer, then I am bound to forget it after a while (essentially what happened to you), so clearly I also find this system painful, but I don't see how this could be improved. Unless, somehow a physically unique token (like an ID card, or a biometric feature) would be used instead of passwords, but not every device nowadays has the ability to handle them, and even them it raises the question of how it could be exploited, or how to handle the terrible case of one losing access to that token.
I understand the motivation to keep it in debug when you first put it online, but the HN community is rightly quite hawkish on this type of thing, it is a potentially massive security risk.
