Was coming here to make this same comment lol. Not just wasteful, but inefficient and insufficient!

I got my first bidet at an apartment several years ago. Some people thought it was weird and my roommate always had a funny line he would use to change their minds:

"If I took a piece of poop and smeared it on your arm right now, would you just take a thin a piece of paper and wipe it around a few times? NO, YOU WOULD WASH IT OFF"

This is the bidet I recommend and give as a gift to the bidet curious:

I of course now have a 300 dollar one with a heated seat and warm water, which I can't recommend enough.
Flushable wipes still cause issues when they're flushed. Wipes should not be flushed.
We really need someone to watch the watchers. Like internal affairs but not part of the police. A group that has police powers over the police but not over the citizenry, and who is not subject to police authority. Give them legally mandated access to all police records.

It seems obvious. Which probably means I'm missing something. Or it could just be that the police apparatus is so deeply embedded into the state political system already that it's not possible to put a check on their power. Although some US states have citizen initiatives, so we could force the issue. But then again, many citizens like a strong, unaccountable police force, so that is hardly a guarantee of success.
I feel like I get more mileage out of folding a larger run of sheets and refolding after each wipe, feels like I use more surface area of the toilet paper even if there's the initial fold that means 2 sheets per wipe. The only disadvantage is the risk of your long strand dipping into the toilet.
Requiring people to do anything is by definition a use of force.

They didn't say anything is wrong with having friends at work, only that using work as your only social avenue is unhealthy.

There are some with heated seats, and some that heat the water to a comfortable temp and also some with pumps to supply more pressure. There are dozens on Amazon.
When I had the honour of visiting your country a few years ago, my friend said to me that if he could only wish one thing for Armenia that it would be relocate the country away from its current geographical position.

I hope that people in the outside world will understand the dilemma Armenia is in, sitting as it does between hostile neighbours Turkey to the West and Azerbaijan to the East. National security is not an abstract concern here, it is an everyday reality. I hope one day it will be different for you and your people
That's interesting.. Because DigitalOcean also has a Canadian subsidiary, collects HST (sales tax) and charges me in USD.

Looking at the data, I am wondering why the invasion is triggered now, as reserves are about to start being refilled, instead of earlier.
From the graph (https://agsi.gie.eu/#/graphs/DE) it seems like the storage starts being refilled as the weather warms near the end of march. IE Putin looses some bargaining power. What am I missing?
I suspect that oil will be brought in from other sources; and gas turbines will be retrofitted to run on oil.

I live near a turbine that runs on gas in the summer, and oil in the winter when demand for gas is high.

I also suspect that prices will rise, encouraging people to turn their thermostats down and limit travel.

This is an argument that would appear to mitigate a Russian attack on Finland.
So you either:

1) War. This affects poor people, a lot.

2) Sanctions. This affects poor people, but at least bodies shouldn't pile up by the thousands.

3) Do nothing. It might work, but in this case it seems that it will affect millions of poor people in Ukraine, and just kick the problem four years into the future.

I'd read a lot of "this sanctions affects the poor" lately, but I fail to see other alternatives that doesn't.

I give you Russia is in a hard geopolitical position. But Europe in the last 70 years has been unusually calm. Russia had nothing to fear, but they spiralled into a mix of imperialist nostalgia and KGB paranoia. Small countries feared just that, and rushed into NATO, which fed the Kremlin paranoia...

Is NATO crawling an enjoyable situation for Russia? No. But also Russia anexating and puppetering neighbors if they are not NATO members isn't the smartest move. Mexico and Canada doesn't live in fear of the US; Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, and now even Finland and Moldova... not so much.

You menctioned Cuba crisis: that crisis was solved negotiating, and the US dismantled what the soviets wanted. We don't even know what Putin wanted: ban Ukraine fron NATO? He would have got that negotiating. But right now, as they keep talking, it's clear that they want the old empire.

"Only include relevant information such as artist name, release title as text, and the exact song title or album as released."

Two albums in a row I was involved with had real problems with Apple due to some additional text on the covers, which was essential to their conceptual nature, think Tull's "Thick as a Brick". One was stylised as a movie poster, the other as a book cover.

I've travelled a lot and if there's one thing I learned it's that we're all the same. We all share the same ideology: to live a dignified life in peace, in good health and in reasonable wealth.

It's what we all desire and have in common. It's not even an ideology, they are common sense motivators for any living thing in general.

Everything else is learned behavior: nationalism, culture, religion. False ideologies that divide instead of unite.
Hi Mark here - Just to be clear we are not using ROI, but rather clinical impact. The expectation being that the expense of encouraging better care through facilitating coordination, clinical teaming, and incentives addresses issues of access, transparency, and engagement/compliance. We are looking to change the healthcare experience from being confusing, disjointed, costly, and wasteful.

As for employer-based insurance, it is the market that more than 50% of all people get their insurance from currently [1]. Is it the best way to make sure people get access to care? No, its just a convenient way to pool risk, and there are significant tax and regulatory support structures in place to prop it up. No private enterprise is going to change this and it is unreasonable to expect that outside of massive political and regulatory changes. And when that revolution happens, our technology and infrastructure will be able to continue delivering the same positive benefits to the disaggregated community because quite frankly we are agnostic to whether 50,000 people are insured by us through 250 employers or as individuals - we are still treating the issues being faced by the people in the community.

This is again pseudo history peddled by the RSS. Another instance of Hindu exceptionalism. This is completely counter to actual history and is a lie propagated by the Indian right wing. You should talk to an actual historian instead of relying on WhatsApp forwards by RSS.

Outside of software dev, there are a ton of scenarios where onsite matters.

Ask anyone in hardware.

Sure, many and myself included here, setup home labs. Those really help, particularly when boards are small and or one can setup or build a test harness or other suitable device.

I currently work a mix, and onsite is needed, but not always.

My current preference is to do both, and my company just moved. We downsized office space, added a common work area, and I have a home lab and another person is building one up now.

Being sick is bot such a big deal.

We all got much better at the various comms tools too.

As for your other items:

Sales people, who are effective, will find ways. (As they should by the way. New money feeds everyone else.)

Point taken on the smells, but for me I don't care.

Perfect time management? Lolol if it works for you, great. Tons of people will struggle with this anyway.

Having a place to focus is all about the workplace. Can be at home, at work, rented... this one is not really an argument for work at home as much as it is workplace advocacy generally.

as I wrote elsewhere. removing the resolution of .ru isn't cutting them off from the internet. It just makes it much harder for them to spread their propaganda. Anyone in russia could still resolve www.cnn.com and the like.

The only Q would be would Russia retaliate by going all china with a great firewall, thereby them actually severing themselves from the internet.
I can provide arguments in favour of the position but not definitive proof, you can decide whether all of this is just "circumstantial".

- First day of war, Trump praises Putin for his behaviour, on tape, call him a genius [1, 4].

- Second day of war, Trump doubles down, on tape. [1]

- When asked whether [Trump] made a mistake calling [Putin] a genius, Moskow Mitch dodges the question, responds that Putin is a "ruthless thug". [2]

- [Repeatedly] met with Putin with no staff / note takers. [3]

- [The first time] Trump was impeached over holding aid of $400m from Ukraine. [4]

- Trump sides with Russia against FBI at Helsinki summit [5]

- Trump veto'd sanctions against Russia [6]

- Trump says it's 'common sense' to include Russia in G7 [7]

- Trump revealed highly classified information to Russian foreign minister and ambassador [8]

- Trump offered to help Putin with wildfires while ignoring wildfires in US [9, 10]

And the list keeps growing, consider looking into Manafort under the light of these events.

As for Schroeder, consider that he pushed for gas, is a close friend of Putin and didn't extend lifetimes of Nuclear plants, and after leaving his position he became board member in Gazprom [11, 12, 13]

I highly doubt that. with their few gmo free wheatfields and that pitiful tiny reserve of oil and gas, not even thinking about their dwindling fresh water supplies, they won't be able to do anything without the west for a long time. you'll see, they will beg for some chicken mcnuggets next Sunday.

After 9/11, the government built a 'secretive' surveillance machine.

Resuming this fundamental issue to a per-basis case normalizes it to the point where people only care given certain circumstances, which is why the government keeps getting await with it.(terrorism, protect the children, police violence, etc.)
This makes total sense.
not murdering people and then setting up massive surveillance of the people protesting the murders would be a good start.
The world is quickly moving back to a bipolar arrangement. Having a unipolar world was nice while it lasted but was unlikely to last forever.
What is actually concerning you? I don't think we actually need all the information at all right now. Ukraine is fighting an uphill battle and they are holding longer then anyone expected. If that's the price of the truth, im happy to pay it. The truth will get out eventually anyway.
Pretty much every "meditation was bad for me" story seems to play out like this. The author basically abused meditation in the way that someone might abuse drugs.

Some people clearly are susceptible to being caught up in this kind of behavior. So I think the point in TFA: "meditation can have risks for some people" is valid. But that "some people" seems to be a fairly specific personality type, and most people could probably benefit from some mind-calming body-centering breathing exercises every day.
> I don't want to be forced to socialize with coworkers.

Okay, sounds like you prefer remote work then? I don't see what's wrong with someone else preferring in-person work.

> The collaboration thing is almost never really about collaborating or efficiency,

Disagree, there's definitely conversations that are much easier to have in-person. Both just "locally" for individual conversations, but also in terms team bonding and trust that allow other kinds of conversations to happen at all.

That said, I think it is _also_ about socializing.

> they want to force others to fulfill their social needs.

You cannot get around needing others to fulfill social needs, that's what social means.

In what way is this "forcing" in a way that's different than how other social interactions work?
The west only perceives Russia as a threat because it makes itself a threat. Russia’s biggest enemy is its own paranoia and tendency towards unprovoked attacks on other countries e.g. the Litvinenko attack on UK being a prime example of Russia attacking another country for basically no reason whatsoever.

The west is perfectly happy to have Russia as a friend and to respect its autonomy if it would just stop attacking other countries.
>Another nail in the coffin of the traditional "publishing industry" too. Expecting to see "edited and produced by" credits in books soon, and to pay attention to the names of those as much as the authors.

Unless I'm very mistaken that is the publishing industry.
That's a pleasant fiction. Just like the fiction that the large company and the job-seeker are on an equal foot when contracting... Unfortunately, there are such things as corruption, lobbying and regulatory capture everywhere. The bigger the companies, the bigger the corruption, lobbying and regulatory capture, up to the point where, shazam! you're not in a democracy anymore.
I tried to get rid of it (Rooted SM-A515F), but it is always reinstalling after a few seconds.

While natural gas can be liquefied, the infrastructure for LNG is much less mature than for gas pipelines. You still need to have the LNG terminals to be able to import the gas (and also at the export terminals as well).

Historically, LNG import terminals are concentrated in East Asia, which is generally too far away from major gas producers for a pipeline to be worthwhile to build but the energy consumption was high enough to warrant investing in such infrastructure. The US also built several LNG import terminals, but then the fracking boom caused so much natural gas to be produced that several of these were converted into LNG export terminals instead.

One of the side effects of the costs of building LNG infrastructure is that natural gas prices are very heavily regionalized: natural gas is far cheaper in the US (where it's pipeline delivery) than it is in Japan (with LNG imports).
exactly this. We need to move away from the bimodal moralising and recognise the geopolitical realties that many of these countries have.
Prejudice does not make a racist. This is the crux of the issue.

It may meet the definition in modern liberal CRT terms, but that's not what it was or the accepted definition among most people.

If you want to hijack the definition of racism go ahead, but don't be taken aback when you get called out for accusing someone of a term reserved for a person that hates another based on his race or believes he's not equal due to race.
> Isn’t Western Europe still taking Russian oil and gas?

Not really. It is still possible technicaly but traders are afraid of buying / making market as they predict sanctions to escalate and traders could be left with unsellable assets on their hands. The price of ural went as low as 20 dollars per barel (with 115 dollars for WTI and Brent)

So the only country that is at the moment actively contracting ural (Russian brand of crude oil) is India. Shame on you India... China scooped one or two tankers but that's it.

Also shipping companies aren't waiting for sanctions and refuse to contract Russian exports...

Of course I'd hope Putin's violation of international law to become a complete and ultimate failure for him.

However, when concentrating on my code I don't want to be reminded that the more people he has against him the more likely a nuclear war will come. Well, unless he succeeds conventionally. Bad dilemma...

Gitlab, if you come up with ideas how to let > 100 million Russians know what's really happening you have all my support.
But please don't disturb my working day. I am already aware and I have chosen my side. I'd hope 99.9... % of gitlab users, too.
I don't think this is that surprising, most Americans - even if they are empirically wealthy or poor - consider themselves "middle class". seems like an implicit bias?

I think a good compromise might be come in once a month but for a few days. It's infrequent enough that you can move to a lcol area and the company can replace the office with hotel or co-working.

But it's frequent enough you can still hold most of your stuff for inperson if you didn't want to have the overhead of remote working.
We had a couch for a while. At other jobs, I setup the back of my Expedition. Tinted windows, bedding, a few comforts and I knocked out the short nap all the time. Would/will do again.
The prelude to the invasion was a large-scale military training exercise, which included moving the troops and equipment from fairly remote parts of Eastern Russia. Seems like that would involve some assurances that equipment is operational.
Still way too much depends on overseas infrastructure. I remember how they blocked some parts of AWS in an effort to block Telegram. Almost everything broke. Even services that were supposed to be fully local.
Kickstarter is the most popular pre-order system, despite saying in large letters that it is not a pre-order system.

Same. We must have some shared PTSD.
Same problem in the UK. I live in a new-ish (supposedly luxury [0]) flat in London and the toilet flush is pretty appalling. Not to mention that it clogs up frequently (unclogs itself in an hour or two usually but still...).

[0] "Luxury" is a tag builders apply to flats that are not 100% the cheapest they could be so they can charge a markup on the prices. In my case, it's a very nice flat, but there's no luxury.
But the reason this happens is because of previous painful experiences like the following:

Dev: Hey Steve, I'm working on issue #2312, but it just occurred to me that that if I could just refactor that one method in SuperFactory it'd make code much cleaner and easier to reuse. Just a quick fix!

Manager: Huh. How much more work is it? If you can time-box it to half a day then go ahead.

Dev: Great, it should take just a couple of hours!

The change is merged and deployed, and several weeks go by...

Manager: oh shit

Dev: faints
