No, because users are expected to know that visiting a webpage results in their IP address revealed. In that sense it becomes impossible to provide webpages to users if they first have to consent.

Google fonts is different, because if I'm ok with germanwebsite.de knowing my IP it does not mean that I'm also ok with Google knowing about it with the same action of clicking a link.
One of the things I’m going to be interested to see over the next couple decades is what happens to building design - especially for houses, we’ve switched entirely over to a mode of building that’s effectively optimized for cost and consistency, as opposed to localized to the environment. You’ve got houses built the same in Arizona and Montana, which is insane on the face of it and assumes sufficient energy availability that we can ignore local climates. It would be great to see a move back towards those older building techniques that are tailored better towards their environments.

If a kickback exists, that makes sense. But wouldn't the kickback have to be quite high to be worth the risk that McDonalds is opening themselves up to? I haven't looked at the Taylor financials, but the service contracts are supposedly 25% of their business, so a kickback is some % of that... but I'm having trouble seeing how it is worth the risk to McDonalds.

Which is why I think it has more to do with competition, and that there is no kickback. In that scenario, the incentive to McDonalds is that they can have more franchises that are successful, which means more money flowing back into the corporation. I imagine this gain would be higher than any kickback they could receive from Taylor.

EDIT>> I just realized that the competition scenario might not make any sense. Taylor wants service contracts. McDonalds wants the ability to make ice cream, and ideally have the machines work. The only way McDonalds is incentivized to not have the machines work is if there is either some leverage that Taylor has over McDonalds or if there is a kickback.
thallium205 does a great job of summarizing some of the common approaches insurers have used to try and get outcomes to be part of the payment of care delivery. We find that most physicians have not been asked what they consider to be critical outcomes related measurements and benchmarks. We are approaching the physicians we contract with on a basis of partnership rather than combatant, and as a result we have been able to achieve direct physician contracts with value-based metrics and payment components that they are comfortable with. We have the technology and analytics to support the timely and accurate reporting of the emerging experience to support them because quite frankly we are only successful if they are as well. To the point about chronic patients, we support the physicians with extensive care coordination capabilities and analytic support to identify gaps in care, opportunities for broadening the clinical team, and to leverage efficient solutions in telemedicine. We make sure all of the efforts are being communicated back to the primary care and/or specialists so they know what’s going on with their patient when their patient is not in their office.

There is a long way to go however because there is not a lot of trust and there are significant technology barriers. We believe our approach is a breath of fresh air.

Thanks for the great summary!
The video makes some good points, but overall it’s very repetitive. Just count how many times the shot of the manual with “call a service technician” is used, always with similar narration, or the one of the finances of the company who make 25% of their revenue with parts and service.

This could have easily been a 5 minute video. Also, it does not offer any explanation why McDonalds is the only customer of the Taylor brand machines with this issue. Burger King is also “an old company”, why doesn’t it apply to them?
Gotcha! I think easiest way would be
a. You'd configure Mailchimp details (api key etc) inside Courier's provider/integrations interface
b. Invoke Courier API and Courier would route it to Mailchimp

["a" can be any integration Courier supports - so it could be Twilio for SMS for instance]
["b" changes based on how you invoke the API - so you could do send just an email via Mailchimp, send just an SMS via Twilio OR both email and SMS OR SMS if email fails and so on --- this logic is configurable via both UI and API]
Yeah, this is a good thing. I don't mind ads where you get something in exchange for the ad view, but ad supported games that rapaciously shove ads down your throat are not worth my time.
Now, let's make a poll and see how many of those 450mln citizens care. Nobody ever considered cookies or online data when they engaged with the indirectly democratic process which appointed those representatives.

> the machine has determined it's unsafe to serve the contents

Wouldn't that mean, though, that the Kytch device could be working around the issue in detriment of the patron's, or "end user", safety?

The franchisees certainly were very happy with Kytch's reduction in their maintenance and downtime cost, caused by very temperamental, ill-designed machines. Franchisee's are clearly victims of a tightly controlled McD ecosystem (sounds so Apple...). But if the machine is operating in a way that could harm users, even if harmful workarounds is just 1 or 2 out of 30 other harmless issues Kytch monitors, fixes or clarifies, still, it would absolutely justify the take down!

Imagine a batch of people who suddenly get a bacteria from unpasteurized ice cream from a Kytch-hacked McD machine. How could McD justify knowing their franchisee's were installing a device that could put their patrons in risk of eating a spoiled dairy products? It's a backdoor for a health crisis, a PR nightmare and endless lawsuits. Even if it doesn't know for sure the device can be blamed, the liability is there.

At some point, Russian paranoia is the root cause here and not the west further pushing east. If France, Germany and the UK can all get along after the 20th century wars, then there is no reason for Russia to be so paranoid about their 'flank'. Especially as the nature of warfare has changed to a due to technology since then.

It's like if I get suckerpunched by someone on a subway, because his great-granddaddy was once mugged on the subway 60 years ago. It explains it, but it doesn't excuse it.
> The strength of these types of global payments systems is that they are global and neutral.

If you think Russia, China and Belarus are going to be neutral, then you are being a bit naive.
The West may not be neutral but it is rules based, so you know what you are getting before you start working with it. Russia, China and Belarus are not rules based and they will retaliate against you for a whole list of things that are not written down anywhere.
"This indicates to me that location has nothing to do with salary, it's all market forces, and trying to insert COL adjustments into the mix is awkward and easily refuted."

That's exactly what I said at the start of my comment:

"Salaries don't differ because of cost of living. They differ because of supply and demand."

Your proposed method of setting compensation ("get the cheapest ones first, then raise my offered salary until I couldn't find anyone") will end up paying people in Delhi less, because their BATNA will tend to be lower. So, even if that's not your intention, you will end up with location-based pay. And if there are significant differences between different same-level employees in Delhi? The lower-paid one will ask why. So you'll institute some sort of pay band that only applies to Delhi or India overall. So you'll end up with location-based pay bands.
I suspect quite few people in software development even know it exists.

Sorry but my experience with Qt has been neutral to negative. I can go and write a textwall about all the issues Qt has and personal experiences i had with it myself, but they're not really relevant here. Your message is basically "people stick with Qt because people stick with Qt so that is the safe bet" (aka "nobody was fired for buying IBM"). Which sure, it is true and a big reason why you do not see other toolkits much, but this doesn't really have to do with what i wrote.

Yeah, that’s why I make it a point not to join a company with any Indians in it. I was born in America, but they insist on playing their weird Hindu mind games and politics with me. If there’s an Indian on the prospective team or on the interview panel, I end the interview right there. The risk is just too much that it will be an unfun place to work at.

It’s also why I’ve had to cut off contact with most if not all of my family who are of Indian origin. They play strange political games that I have no interest in participating. At the end of the day humans are tribal and it is this aspect which makes me hate a lot of people.
I worked with someone in the mobile games industry that called them "stimulators" and "Skinner boxes".

I've commented on this previously as I worked as a jack of all trades for a McDonald's franchisee for years.

The machines tanks and shaving cores must be disassembled and cleaned every two weeks. They have a very intelligent series of sensors and internal mechanisms that make it impossible to defeat or cheat.

This is not a low skilled job. I'd say it would be easier to change your cars oil than complete this. There's multiple gaskets and seals which need to be rotated quarterly in a tune up kit. While we were hiring at minimum wage the shake machine trained people were making 15$. I can only imagine what they're making now.

I don't find the "cryptic messages" issue to be valid. New machines had new systems and codes, it wasn't malicious. Everyone had access to the manual and the Taylor provider in my region did some phone troubleshooting free of charge to prevent service calls. They even did free annual trainings.

Mechanically older machines can have issues, and some franchisees can be stubborn about replacing them. However I believe the vast majority of the time the issue is the machine not being cleaned.
This is why we can do things to make up for the fact that society has failed these children.

If you make it so that only “merit” is considered - you’re only gonna get rich kids. (And I see this already through SV - it’s nothing but rich or well educated parents for the children here)

What is the argument against letting children who have had a rough lot in their life get a slight lessening of their handicap when applying for colleges or other life changing scenarios that could pull them out of their rut for future generations?

If you don’t and are unwilling to address the root cause (and we aren’t willing to address that in the US - we don’t even have universal healthcare yet guys) then you’re gonna keep having this shit continue.
Isn’t it what one would want anyway?

Anyone can choose the tech stack, patterns, or whatever that he likes. But developers enjoy being absolutists, and deem something they don't like as a MISTAKE, or would tell you that the way they think is the ONLY way to think.

Viral cover-up: SARS-CoV-2 cap offers new target for antivirals
I am thinking about animals in these superhot regions. yes humans can turn the AC on but such temperatures are effectively death sentences for everyone except human. Now I do not know the exact WB temperature for each animals but 1) their body temperature equilibrium must be around current conditions. 2) for smaller (than humans) surface area/mass equation would tip towards for being worse for them in terms of survivability (think kids needing more layers).

I do not have a good feeling about this!
All this post-racial idealism would land a lot better if we didn’t just get over 4 years of Trump, and if he wasn’t polling better than our current President.

Given that, all these concerns about our precious post-racial paradise if it weren’t for those meddling progressives seems more than a little self-serving and disingenuous. I wonder how much confidence these keyboard warriors would have in person if they had to tell a black person’s lived experience of American racism was nonsense.

So did we though.
As dimensionality grows, data is more linearly sperable, so fewer dimensions are signficant in distinguishing the data (though for any pair of points, those dimensions will be different).

Grad desc, as an exhaustive search over all those dimensions "maybe" less performant in very high dimensions, where we have enough data to be "right some of the time" when randomly choosing which dim to discriminate on.

If we force zero loss, ie., an interpolation regime, then we're getting interpolation as usual. Can we get there faster when dimensionality increases?

It's plausible if count(relevant dimensions) << count(dimensions), and if they discriminating dimensions for any two random points is itself random.
> It's not a claim, there's video of her doing it.

This is what I was referring to earlier: she gave out food, as was reported at the time, but the Russian sources you appear to be repeating LOVE to describe it as cookies for some reason and have continued doing so for years. Nobody else does that because it's an absurd thing to be upset about in any case: a U.S. State department official tours a rally in support of pro-democracy demonstrators is hardly unexpected and if it was something shameful as implied they wouldn't have done it in front of a ton of reporters. (… and, if you recall we were talking about a CIA conspiracy theory when they rarely do things literally in the public square using real names)

Similarly, it's pretty telling that you try to link this to the Azov battalion rather than the groups which actually lead the protests and you continue to characterize it using the terms which the Russian state media favor rather than how most independent observers do.
Yeah, they're certainly more durable than a normal keyboard, and all deaths have been abnormal (spills, etc).

I don't have anything handy, and not going to invest time to score internet points. My point isn't who was or was not correct in this instance. My point is that social media making decisions about what is "low quality "evidence"." or making conclusions on who to censor based on "trusted sources" is and labeling everything else as "misinformation" is a terrible precedent and this is just one example of it blowing up in their faces in an obvious way. They are in no better position than me to evaluate what is or is not low quality and I especially don't trust their motives/bias/judgement in the matter. They thing CNN is reliable... I think CNN is garbage. CNN puts out more fake news than anyone.
Whether or not it originated out of the lab is almost beside the point, they can't be trusted with this type of universal censorship power because they are often wrong and have an agenda which biases their decisions on the validity of sources.

Then maybe don't spend $1.1B for a stadium, and especially don't subsidize it with public funds unless the public either owns the team or then owns the stadium and leases it to the team.
I agree. But I think the only way we'll solve this issue is by having sentencing parity for white-collar crimes.

Right now plenty of people look at that and say, "It's obvious that Those People will only learn if they're strictly punished. We can't be soft on crime!" But if we have similar sentences for things like wage theft, where many more people will identify with the perp, I think they'll be much more willing to say, "Gosh, that seems like overkill."
You would think that the McDonalds franchise owners would push back on McDonalds corporate about this issue. They would rightly be complaining that they are losing revenue because the Taylor ice cream machine has low reliability.

Even one service call per month is a significant cost to a low-margin business like a quick-serve restaurant.

It is quite possible there is some hinky corporate politics and such within McDonalds corporate that is preventing improvement here.

If you wet your body (or clothes) and sit in front if a fan (or in the wind of there is some) you will cool down.

Why? The fastest molecules tend to jump out of the surface of the liquid water. The wind push them away. So the wind removes the hottest molecules. That's why you are cooler when it's windy.

This mechanism works at any temperature.

It impacts your experience in the sense that development time was given to balancing different difficulties. Even if the Souls games had a 'no damage taken' mode, for example, there are multiple mechanics where you fall off a cliff and die, and these things would take development time to correct. And again, it would mess with the author's vision on what the ambiance of the games should be like; It's oppressive because it's supposed to be, and frankly people who don't get it and demand explicit difficulty settings don't really want to play Dark Souls at all.

You don't need to have explicit difficulty selection to make a game easier: as said multiple times in these threads, there are a bunch of ways From does it without recurring to it.
