If the alternative is putting gas in a bucket, which a) will be evaporating into your face while you walk back; b) will be dissolving the bucket while you walk back; c) you won't be able to use the get the gas into the tank anyway, even if it hasn't completely dissolved the bucket, then yes you walk. That's what happens when you run out of gas and you don't have a container in your car. You walk.

What helps in your case? Holding attention on the body sensations / emotional response?
Depends on your decision criteria and metric of “success”.

If someone truly loves doing something, and enjoys the process, then why not? If you like being on teams, get a college scholarship and education, and don’t quite make it to the NFL, then quitting early isn’t a great idea.

If someone loves getting a PhD, get’s the stipend, enjoys the process, and then doesn’t get tenure… then they’ve at least spent 7-8 years of their life doing something they enjoy. Optimizing for some end goal or binary idea of success isn’t a good move in my view. Enjoying the process is as important as the outcome.

Being a pro athlete takes brains, natural athletic ability, dedication to training, and injury avoidance. Only one of those things is in the person’s control.
thanks for pointing this out. I feel like I have uncovered yet another landmine that could get me in trouble in the US. There are many.
Great point.

It's extremely difficult to represent yourself pro se if you don't have access to information about how cases like yours might unfold, arguments that have been used, how well those arguments have worked, how the cases have been decided, whether a company has settled a similar case as yours, and so on.
The second article you linked cites several studies. I looked at each of them and pretty much all of them conclude that breastfeeding is better than bottle, except the childhood obesity one, which found no effect (I wouldn't expect breastfeeding vs bottle to have an effect on weight or height).

The first study cited only looked at height, weight, and blood pressure after breastfeeding, which are not the variables I would expect to see gaps in for breast fed vs bottle fed (other metrics are much more important, in my opinion)

The second study cited concluded that breastfeeding "had a significant reduction in the risk of 1 or more gastrointestinal tract infections (9.1% vs 13.2%; adjusted OR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.40-0.91) and of atopic eczema (3.3% vs 6.3%; adjusted OR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.31-0.95), but no significant reduction in respiratory tract infection (intervention group, 39.2%; control group, 39.4%; adjusted OR, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.59-1.28).".

The third study had similar results: "Our experimental intervention increased the duration and degree (exclusivity) of breastfeeding and decreased the risk of gastrointestinal tract infection and atopic eczema in the first year of life."

The fourth linked study on IQ concludes: "These results, based on the largest randomized trial ever conducted in the area of human lactation, provide strong evidence that prolonged and exclusive breastfeeding improves children's cognitive development."

If these are the best studies that an article whose goal is to debunk the breastfeeding narrative can find, it looks like a clear win for breastfeeding to me.
Well, that's the way to solve this chicken-and-egg problem - the people who need IPv6 the most will switch to it, perhaps by a mandate from the top, and then it will make practical sense for others to switch as well to ensure interoperability.
If you aren't going to have the time to pay attention / learn / get decent grades, and you aren't in a field where having the degree is Important (for whatever reasons), then definitely quit. Or at least put the college "on hold" (to the degree possible), so you're not closing that door unnecessarily.
The "experiment" you're referring to is playing a game designed to be unfair, to start a conversation about fairness?

The vitriol people are projecting on such a benign game really makes me think society would be served well if many of the commenters here had participated in similar games as children themselves.
The point is (also mathematically speaking) that a flat tax is less fair to the poor than having a progressive tax with a zero marginal tax for incomes below what’s required for merely surviving (i.e. no tax for people without any excess income that can be saved). So there would be room for improvement but, as well-intended as it might be, a flat tax is not making things better for the poor.
Just gonna throw Migadu in here as a mail host. Everyone loves Fastmail, which is cool - I'm an ex-happy-user - but Migadu's point of difference is their pricing.

Whereas Fastmail charges by the user/month (or did when I was there), which can add up quickly if you've got a bunch of domains, Migadu does not. They charge by volume. You can add as many domains and mailboxes as you like. For some use cases - mine, and likely many of you - that ends up with a way smaller bill.

They're run by real people in Switzerland. I've been a customer for a couple of years now and it's worked flawlessly.

> I guess "we" have decided that driving, and self-driving, is worth a number of deaths.

Yes, although it has been that way all along, and not just with self-driving cars. Driving is implicitly seen as either an inevitability or worth the risks, although few people want to explicitly say deaths are an acceptable tradeoff for, well, anything. Implicitly accepting a (usually small) number of deaths, or a statistical risk of death, for almost any activity is a part of life.

Eliminating accidental deaths entirely would generally make us pay through the nose in some other way, economical or otherwise, so almost nobody actually even wants what it would entail. It's socially and emotionally hard to say that, so it's easier to just consider it inevitable. (Frankly, that's just kind of a different way of saying the same thing, and understandable.)

Self-driving cars just turn it from an inevitable human error into something with a target on it. It's no longer an inevitable human error because there's a technology that caused the accident to happen.

Self-driving cars are supposed to reduce the total risks in the end, though, so if that happens, the more interesting question will be in whether people will be allowed to drive at some point in the future at all.
I’ve been enjoying supernatural for the last few months.

it has been my experience, even in the poorer parts of inner cities, most gas stations (the ones with convenience stores attached) sell gas cans for ~$5.

AAA will deliver you 5 gallons of gas, for members, though it counts towards a call for service (and you have to pay for gas).

I keep an empty gas can in my car trunk after learning the hard way.

I think the difference is “don’t quit when you commit to do something and break your word”.

The important thing is to include natural breaks where you can exit gracefully, and only commit to a certain amount of something so that you can try it without “quitting” after a big commitment.
It's the most permissive, in that it yields the most permission.

The permission denied to your company to take without giving, is outweighed by the permission granted to everyone else.

True, that's quite a puzzling situation. It must be the case that the bean counters at Intel would prefer to have the reduced area for those products because it certainly affects margin.

Was Intel's design team really unable to make that happen at a reasonable cost? Were they trying to build a product that supports AVX-512 but failed? I wonder if we'll ever know.
I work in technical IT, and regularly develop or write unit tests, but I don’t have any formalised training in functional testing short of common sense.

So, one answer (not necessarily the right one!) to how you can use software without copying it is that "the license says you can". In other words the license definitely views "running" and "copying" as distinct, regardless of you, me, or federal law.

The other, maybe more familiar idea to lawyers, and maybe more plausible to you, is the one in MAI v. Peak, that running is copying by definition. (The argument is based on the idea that running a program copies it into RAM, so we don't even need to talk about how you obtained the software.)

The way this shakes out is as follows:

a. If running the program is "not covered by this License", then we can stop reading the license and return to copyright law. But copyright law says we need a license to run (that is, to copy, MAI v. Peak) the program, so where do we get it, if not from "this license"? Bit of a puzzler.

b. If "running the Program is not restricted", maybe that sentence is by itself some kind of license to "run" the program, even though that contradicts the "not covered" part? If so, we need to understand what the license means by "run" which is evidently something different than "copy".

Very probably, what this clause originally meant was that people who think like MAI v. Peak are wrong and nobody should need a license to run software. If so, it's pretty challenging to turn around and argue "just kidding, they do"
So just to clarify here, does my boss or employer own me? Because he both is generally entitled to the work I do, and as such can control my behavior?

But more generally, I don't agree that exerting some amount of influence over behavior that affects me is ownership, as long as it is limited to the behavior that affects me. And as that user mentioned, there are costs society bears beyond the potential lost productivity (healthcare/rehabilitation costs as an example) so you can completely ignore this line of reasoning and their point still stands.

I found that GraphQL subscriptions give a great balance between trigger/signal and fat/REST events in complex environments.

The events that a subscriber is interested in are decorated with the exact data the subscriber specifies at subscription time, avoiding an API call while providing exactly the level of richness the client requires.
It's hardly a reach to say that the upper class has tools, among them money, that enable behaviors that are disastrous for those without those tools.

There is a bad habit among the upper class to say "we should normalize X because it's harmless" because X is harmless for _them_, and terribly dangerous for others not so fortunate.

It's not a black/white issue and I don't think it has to be handled like one.

It's possible to that allow serious exploration without exposing children to toxic chemicals. I think you can let children walk by themselves and play by themselves without discarding any worry about child safety. Etc.

The OP is what my younger friends would call a "boomer rant". And despite being a "boomer" myself I no sympathy for a "the problem today is people are too worried about safety" viewpoint. Today's world is complex combination of good trends and bad trends, not merely a matter of "now lawyers run everything".
> ...and in detail...

This is an extremely disingenuous way to phrase it. It's deliberately not hosted on a domain which would have any session information sent. There's no tacking information set by that service. I invite you to actually look at a call to this service (you'll want to Google "browser developer tools", that should get you started) and realize that there is no user data in the request. Because of course there isn't.

>...makes it seem like you agree...

Ah, the classic tactic of standing up a weak strawman and then arguing against that. Good to see you again, nemesis.
I would really like to see this with a high pass filter (i.e. with the detail of the river systems, without the hundreds-of-miles level altitude changes) and state borders.
Shameless plug: if you are into VR fitness but you think the existing solutions are missing multiplayer options, my brother and I are building Space Punch [1] which is a multiplayer fitness app. It is currently released in early access on Sidequest, and it’s functional.

It seems fairly clear to me that it was not intended to be read as a colloquial phrasing. It's stated twice, in italics. There's nothing wrong with pointing out this idea is just false.

The responder isn't telling the whole story though. The reason the coffee was so hot was because they wanted to limit the practical ability of customers to make use of endless refills on coffee. Not consideration for the average customer's wants.

I'm neither an obstetrician nor a researcher in that field. But if I had to guess, this Wikipedia paragraph sumarizes things nicely regarding infection:
"Passive immunity is also provided through colostrum and breast milk, which contain IgA antibodies that are transferred to the gut of the infant, providing local protection against disease causing bacteria and viruses until the newborn can synthesize its own antibodies."

I think you're talking about two different things. In ianai's example, the goal is a tenure-track professorship. In yours, it's essentially "get a PhD and see what happens." Both are perfectly fine goals, but they are different.

This person would be better off looking for grant money elsewhere. That may be harder than I think as a theoretical physicist because I imagine funding is much more driven by governments or other big entities that are more likely to be co-opted by things unrelated to the actual research. But in general, I think a big part of building a research program now is ensuring it is insulated from political BS, which means focusing on funding and partnerships that are actually interested in the outcomes of the research, and ignoring many traditional funding sources that have become red herrings.

(I see the post was killed, it's too bad, I think it's a relevant - maybe not new - discussion to have about political interference in academic work. There was some discussion the other day about Texas trying to eliminate tenure from universities, effectively so the government can interfere with teaching. The kind of requirement for grants discussed here is a similar overreach)
Find out how long it takes for your credits to expire first.

Many schools allow you to finish by taking classes online. See if you can take a single class online at a time for the next few years.

Either way, your grades don't matter now, so just do the bare minimum to get the degree (now or someday in the future).

There are so many ways that "a few hundred internal training videos" could violate YouTube policy I'm just going to assume you were violating policy and didn't know it.

Happens with other companies too. My partner currently has their twitter account locked for "evading a ban".

The thing is it is their main account, under their own name, used regularly to post non-controversial stuff (and their other accounts(not locked) are even more boring). No indication of what ban they are trying to avoid even. Their only weird thing they are doing is using VPNs sometimes.

They have filed an appeal but it has been a week and no feedback of any kind.
I thought it was going to be a huge hassle (I too imagined I had hundreds of accounts), but for me there were less than 30 accounts I actually cared about. Basically credit cards, banking, airlines, government services, social accounts, FAANG accounts, and domains/hosting. Annoying, but only took about an hour and a half.

The rest that are non-important I'll just let languish in the Gmail account, assuming I'll be able to go back and get them if needed, yet, also not being heartbroken if I get screwed by some faceless algorithm like OP.
From what I can see and feel interacting with Google teams as a customer on the business side, (ie not as a consumer), it appears Product creation seems to be rewarded very well organizationally but Maintenance and continuous improvement, not so much.

Also it seems culturally very hard to be able to actually talk to their product engineers about their product - and it's not because of the sales teams are coming in the middle but because the sales teams themselves seem to struggle to get time from the product engineering teams. I've had multiple instances of sales teams suggesting that the best way forward was to talk with the product engineers, then struggling to setup time with them.
Establishing a ritual sounds good to me though I don't have any experience with that. I do strongly believe acts of intention are powerful for those who practice them.

Stories such as the one you mention about the woman who lost her son are very moving - but this is exactly the problem. It’s not wise to base decisions on individual anecdotes, or to reason from emotion.

Emotions are real and in some ways the most important consideration, but not one persons emotion, not a few tragic cases.

We have to do our best to check our human tendency to overweight these emotional stories and reason about the overall impact to everybody.

When we feel ourselves reacting emotionally to a story, that’s when we should least trust our own judgement.

Certainly, there's a libertarian argument made against requiring seat belt use, including mathematical economics models that can prove it... provided a few unstated assumptions are met--like rational agents, complete information, perfect competition, etc... Of course, the problem is that those assumptions aren't met.

If someone is more seriously injured in a car crash because they weren't wearing a seat belt, the cost of that is going to be borne by society at large in a variety of ways. A more serious accident is going to consume more Police and EMS resources. The increased hospital and resulting medical costs will be shared by millions of people through (even private) insurance companies. If the person dies, the investment the public made in the person's education is lost, etc...

The response to these points from libertarians is typically to propose a system where someone can chose not to be bound by this rule, and pay the price in increased health care/disability premiums or something. But these systems ignore significant information and transaction cost problems. The person makes a statement about whether or not they want to be bound by a seat belt rule, but how is that information verified? (People lie...) If it's just a contract term, not a law, if someone is pulled over for speeding and wasn't wearing a seat belt, do the police ticket the driver for violating the contract? If someone who says they want to follow the seat belt rule is unlucky enough to just forget it the day they got into an accident, do we just let them die? If a crash victim comes into the hospital unconscious, do they verify seat belt contract compliance with the insurance company before spending money on life-saving treatment? Or do they treat the person only if they'll be able to pay out of pocket? The whole system is full of costs, complexities, and moral hazard--it's a mess.

It's SO much simpler and less costly just to have a seat belt law that applies to everyone. Sure, a few people will find it a little paternalistic and annoying, but the other way is a lot worse. We might be willing to deal with a more complex and expensive system if the rule is very intrusive or highly restrictive of personal liberty. Being able to drive without seat belts isn't worth it.
