Most loans are simple interest, or "compounded" monthly with a payment greater than the interest so there is no compounding. This is generally good for the consumer, you don't want interest compounding against you. Is it possible you meant interest only loan?
Not being able to see browser version numbers at a glance in the Compatibility Chart really reduces the usefulness. I know I can click on a box to see which version a feature was added, but for certain APIs like MediaRecorder (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MediaRecord...) this is a lot of clicking! There are subtleties like `pause` being implemented in Safari 14.1 where the rest of the API was implemented in 14.0 I've been bitten by this.
While the other responses to your comment have given some aspects that seem applicable to me. I'd like to add the aspect of marketing. There is most likely some subsidiary of gazprom that sells Gas as more clean than coal approach and hides it's ownership to those that don't do their homework.
Besides there being no real alternative to russian gas in central Europe most people will not research who is behind the name on the bill.

The difference between miners and stakers...

If miners start acting bad, anyone else on the planet can acquire chips and electricity to peacefully countervail their power.

If stakers start acting bad, the only options you have are 1) abandon the monetary system or 2) violently coerce the top stakers and torture them into giving you control of their stake.

This is why bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency likely to become the truly global, monetary asset that nation states use for trade and monetary reserves. No way in hell nation states will trust Vitalik and his gang to honestly secure their money.

Also, I looked at it more closely and found that Russia has become food self-sufficient in the past decade. This was likely the key fact that emboldened this invasion. The needs of the people will be met even in the event of full insulation. In fact, accelerating insulation may make taking full autocratic control easier. Few would be willing to die for a revolution if their base needs are met. This seems like a bad time to live in Russia.

>ISIS, Al Qaeda, and the Taliban are not "regimes" and I'd like to caution you away from normalizing terrorist groups as political entities. It has been known to vendors that operate in those areas who terrorists are and what tactics they employ. There is no "neutrality" to these groups

Oh piss off with the rhetoric. The Taliban did and does run Afghanistan. For a brief moment Isis was running parts of Iraq and Syria. Both are trying to perform typical state administrative functions (courts and rule of law, taxes, defense, controlling borders, etc). One way just way more violent and way less successful than the other. Neutrality is not a foriegn concept in the middle east. They just have way different concepts of "non-neutrality by association, group membership and history" than most of the west does.

Edit: What constitutes a state or government of a state doesn't change because we don't like the specific policy decisions of said state or government or because said government maintains power through a level of violence we consider unacceptable.

Probably because the older version is Java, so if you grew up being intrroduced by people older than you, the Java would have more staying power.
I'm doing this process now and it is a total pain due to how long their emails take to arrive.

So far I needed to:

- Reset my password

- Answer security questions I created as a kid, had no idea to the answers, had to reset them

- Finally, need a code to begin the migration

Each step requires an email confirmation or code, which takes 5-10 minutes to arrive, and for the last step, the session seems to timeout around 10 minutes. This is pretty frustrating as it has taken 30+ minutes to do, I can't imagine kids will have much patience or even understand what the purpose of this is.
Location: Munich, Germany

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: Yes

Technologies: Python, C++, a bit of React and Go, git, SQL, the Python Data Science Stack (numpy/scipy/pandas etc.), Tensorflow, JAX.

Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicholas-junge/

Email: nicho.junge[at]gmail[dot]com

I am a physics/math grad turned software developer with about 3 years of experience, looking for a new full-time job. I have sound knowledge in Numerical Computing, Statistics and Machine Learning, along with practical experience in ML Engineering and Data Science. I am most familiar with Python as that's been my day job for the last 3 years, but I have C++ experience as well.

I post my personal projects on my Github at https://github.com/nicholasjng . Also, I started contributing to some open source projects like JAX and Google Benchmark in the past year.
In that regard, my main focus has been my hobby project pybm, a CLI for easily benchmarking and comparing Python code performance between different reference points in a git history with only three commands. (Also the reason why I felt confident listing git under my "technologies" :))
MDN is a breath of fresh air after the W3sScools abomination.

Thunderbird is still very relevant (not everyone wants to use web based), but they've let go of it.

I'm personally also quite happy they took a detour to promote and use (to some extend) Rust. IMHO a pity they've stopped the Servo project.

Rust seems to have more uptake than FF lately.

Aside from the typical complaints that you should be using prefers-color-scheme instead… This doesn’t work for me. Is it supposed to leverage autocomplete or something?
Is "NFT" used a synonym for "image" here? Is there something about NFT-ness that makes existing technology, like img tags, less suitable?
I am always shocked to learn just how porous prisons are and why nothing seems to be done about that.
This is what I ended up with. It's easy to script, and we were able to ship a Docker container to it, leaving us a nice migration path to other systems if necessary.
EDB | Senior Software Engineer | Remote | Full Time | https://enterprisedb.com

EDB builds products and solutions based on the world’s best database, Postgres. We have many of the core Postgres contributors on staff and continuously contribute back to the open source community.

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer (Tooling) to help build Postgres tools. We're working on modernizing Postgres tools, used in production, development, and testing. You would be designing and building these tools, specifically around high-availability, distributed database architectures, and deployment tooling. We have a lot of challenging projects in our backlog, and you definitely won't get bored.

https://grnh.se/aa99beb93us

We're also looking for a Senior Software Engineer (Automation) to help build Postgres automation. You would be designing and building automation and tools to ensure our Postgres solutions will work perfectly for our customers. We need to ensure that our full solutions, including components such as multiple variants of Postgres, HA and pooling, bi-directional replication, deployment tools, and more, all fully work together for customer scenarios. To reach that goal, we're building a lot of cool methods/tools to verify our products and solution architectures.

https://grnh.se/53042e4f3us

We work on a lot of fun and interesting projects. We also use a lot of Go, Python, Ansible, etc, but we're always open to adding the right tools and frameworks to our stack. The roles are 100% remote, and always will be.

These roles are directly on my team and I'm happy to answer any questions via email.

All EDB openings: https://grnh.se/3ee0435d3us

Yes, but the alternative is to stand by while a couple of million people are going to be slaughtered and anybody that knows anything about European history knows that that will not stand unopposed. So: whatever Putin does he should do but the world should not be standing by while we're being salamied into non-existance.

Remember?:

First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist

Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist

Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew

Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_they_came_...

Right now we can stand by and pretend we're not Ukrainians, but the fact is that no longer matters, we are all Ukrainians right now, whether we like it or not.

What we do about it is what will set us apart, and sometimes it is better to act and to suffer than not to act. I'm getting the feeling that sentiment in Europe is shifting from inaction to action, and the current troop movements are a reflection of the fact that that is not just public sentiment. Just standing by is being an accomplice.

Putin may well see that as a pretext (or even an actual reason) to turn this into a nuclear war, but right at this moment the only thing that stops an incursion by NATO is the fact that Putin has threatened to retaliate with nukes. Do not underestimate the very thin knife edge on which the world is currently balancing.

No, the nerds were killing the company: https://www.zdnet.com/article/endangered-firefox-the-state-o...

They were taking in a half billion a year and decided to be a haven for at-best, moderately related technology development efforts. They were losing money.

So, after enough bleeding, they stopped doing that and are now experimenting (this is an experiment, just like MDN plus and others) with other things to do. They look like they're still trying to evolve the web.
One is far more aggressive and off-putting than the other.
For a few weeks now I'm getting the error where if I exit and resume Firefox Mobile too quickly the active tab will be blank grey, and if I try to change tabs the second tab will display the page from the first tab but I can't interact with it. Any subsequent tab I switch to gets replaced with the first tab. It's infuriating.

If you've uploaded it, there's no sense in taking it down. Google already has it. Just don't log-in to Google accounts and don't take their cookies.

> I guess I'm going to have to upload it to something else that you may or may not have access to,

If you looked into alternatives, you would find many don't require any account or login by the receiving party. Example: box.com links . Actually, I'm pretty sure that's the norm.

Look, you've been stuck in the Google bubble for too long. The weather is just fine outside.

I've been working with Hubs for a couple of years now, and it's been really great for our particular needs. It's easy to setup and deploy your own virtual world on a custom domain, it's all open source so it's easy to re-skin / add features on top of, and the Hubs community discord is very active and helpful. We're using it in a couple of ways:

1) Building virtual venues for social organizations to meet and host workshops in. Youth groups etc. are having a very difficult time adapting to remote first environments, and having a space to gather and have a sense of identity has proven valuable to them. More info at [0] if you want to pop in and see it live.

2) Browser based live theatre is also something we've been exploring in our collaboration with On Board, a rotating anthology of short virtual performances by experimental creators. There's a show coming up next week if you want to check it out [1]!

We could be doing the same thing on a 3rd party platform live VR Chat or Horizons, but the open source nature of Hubs means that we a lot more agency over user privacy & security, as well as the ability to add and modify the stack as needed.

It's still early days for us, but we're building a business on top of Hubs and are getting really positive feedback from our customers.

> Problem was the Microsoft account he migrated to already had a Minecraft purchase.

When I specifically tried to do this, the migration page said "Sorry, this account already has already been migrated".

Reminder that there are two Minecraft licenses - one for bedrock/"Minecraft for Windows"/Windows 10 Edition[0], and one for the "Java edition" of the game[1]; you only needed to migrate Mojang->Microsoft to keep access to your Java Edition purchase via a Microsoft account. The Windows edition has always been a pure Microsoft Store license.

I would advise you that if you are trying to fight anticompetitive behavior, you are backing the wrong horse. Apple is not good, but it is useful in fighting what's truly bad: Google's attempt to turn the web into a walled garden. Read a bit about "Project NERA" online.

Google's constant stream of web "standards" only they've implemented, AMP (which thankfully is starting to die), and Privacy Sandbox all fold into a plan to control the web.

You might not be paid by them, but please don't take on the "useful idiot" role of helping them control the web because you didn't understand the impact of what you were promoting.

I was recently offered a founding role. The cofounder is 14 years younger than I. I have a family of 5, she is single and living on a very light income. Her advisers were telling her founders should pay themselves an amount that was approximately 1/3 of my current take-home. The divide in stage of life and accumulated responsibility was just too great to overcome and we parted ways.

It may be MIT legally or whatever, but calling it “MIT” could still be misleading when people expect “MIT” to refer to the research and education institution.

Just because Facebook decided to rename itself (but not the website) “Meta” instead of “Facebook”, doesn’t mean I should respect that decision and call the organization Facebook by the name “Meta”.
Similarly, but in kind of the opposite way, here.
"mandatory" comes across as a bit more condescending. It's really unusual phrasing for public messaging.

Nothing linguistically wrong with it though.

Apple is also extremely persistent about asking you for an Apple id. It prompts me for my Apple ID maybe once an hour.

Now I'm sure that this is behavior that could be turned off in some setting, but the fact that it is somehow not difficult to get it into this state is evidence enough.
Back when I studying CS and as Junior, I would laugh at memes about "Frontend vs Backend" where they described the Frontend as this pretty pasture and the Backend as this god forsaken place of spaghetti code.

In a way I find this meme even funnier now because of how backwards it is. Often times it's the backend that's really clean and organized and the frontend is a hot mess.
