DIY whenever possible.

You wind up paying for the cost of a lot of tools, but the more you do yourself the bigger your toolbox and the cheaper the job gets next time. Quality tools are worth it, but there is a fine line. Snap-On for example, sell great ergonomic tools on credit, but they are insanely expensive. I used to swear by Craftsman and luckily have almost everything I need from them before they changed hands. Harbor freight tools has discount tools that are perfect for occasional or light duty use. You can buy a cheap MIG welder for $150 for example. Perfect for plain steel exhaust and body repair. Or a complete set of drill bits for $10.

Many auto parts stores will also rent tools for a deposit that they refund once you return the tool. Sometimes you come across a project where the tooling is incredibly expensive. In those cases I'll go to the parts store, rent the tool for retail price, use it, and return it for the deposit back. Parts stores did this to both encourage and enable DIY repairs and reduce costs associated with fraud. Customers used to buy tools, use them once then return them. By offering these used tools as rentals it obliviates the need for someone else to come along and do the same thing.
I agree with that. Thanks for the perspective.
Interesting - thank you for the recommendation, just signed up as well. Found it a little cute they seem to be intentionally(?) riffing off of dogpile's old branding.
I deeply hate the algorithmic (Home) version. It seems to totally hide the tweets of people who don't have a certain ranking. What's the point of following someone's account if Tweeter doesn't even show me what they are posting?

His followers called him Mahasamatman and said he was a god. He preferred to drop the Maha- and the -atman, however, and called himself Sam. He never claimed to be a god. But then, he never claimed not to be a god. Circumstances being what they were, neither admission could be of any benefit. Silence, though, could.

To add for future readers, since the post I was replying to was edited and I can't edit mine anymore, I'm not calling people stupid. The original post was putting into question the fact that most people only read the first page of results, hence my response.
Side note, Tesla won't give you an option where you want to perform repairs. You have to go to an authorized repair shop or they can kill the car remotely.

They are one of the biggest opponents of the "right to repair" movement.
I was asking for a classical geometry book which is using a treatment using vectors. Usually classical geometry is treated without resorting to vectors.
Truth is also a casualty when all truth is drowned out by a deluge of lies and nonsense. It's not as simple as you wish. You want to live in a trustless society where there needs be no curation of truth, but it's simply not practical, and it never has been.
Really dissatisfied with pay increase this year in February. CEO talked up how everyone was going to be really happy with big bumps to make us more competitive (they have been struggling with high turnover after a couple of acquisitions). I get "exceeds expectations" multiple years in a row and did everything my manager suggested last year to try to get a bigger bump this year. I got 2% base salary increase and 5% bonus target increase. Chances of seeing the full bonus targets this year? Not high.

I'll be looking for a new job this year for sure.

What?
That's not actually how money creation works. Governments never dump new money into banks, and banks don't have any ability to 'distribute' it or lend it out. Quantitive easing was an asset swap (bonds for reserves) that was meant to increase the ability of banks to lend, but it didn't really work in theory and nor in practice, so didn't do anything except for pushing up asset prices because they had reserves and wanted to convert that back into something that gave them more return, so buying up financial assets. It didn't do what it was meant to because generally the banks were never liquidity constrained, lending was more demand constrained.

In general the Government puts new money into the economy by spending, and removes money from the economy by taxation. But most of the money in the economy is created through bank lending (with a corresponding creation of private debt).
Ah sorry, I misread your claim.

Sounds high but if it's true it's true.

I feel like I'm the only person in the world who likes the "algorithmic" feed.

In theory I follow few enough people to be able to sit down and read every tweet - I rarely want to. The magical "algorithm" seems to do a reasonable job of raising tweets with high activity, or tweets from people I often interact with, to the top.

This seems entirely reasonable to me, and if I want to see the rest, I can just keep scrolling.

Perhaps it is more of a problem if you follow hundreds of people. But I don't do that, and if I did, I'd never be able to read everything anyway.
I take it that you're also willing to condemn Snowden for releasing his trove of documents without looking at them either, with the result being that 95% of them weren't related to his stated purpose (domestic surveillance programs on Americans)?

2022 National and Regional Awards Winners
Not to be dismissive, but why would a company specifically care about some arbitrary number called "inflation" vs overall pressure from the labor market, which presumably must have some encoding of that, considering they seem to clearly paying a person enough not to justify leaving?

P.S. It is especially amusing considering lots of "only if I were to leetcode I could increase by X" coexist with many posts that diss on leetcode and whine that it filtered them out and it is not "relevant to the work they are doing". Perhaps the system is working then?
It's not obvious that the sanctions end when Russia leaves Ukraine.

The important point I'm trying to convey is that banning encryption is so extreme that it makes invasion of privacy something that someone can accidentally do. You have to try not to look, similar to if a person was nude in front of you against their will.

It’s basically an enriched dough, similar to a French brioche but you make a roux initially to inhibit gluten formation and make it more, uh, cake like I guess.

They wouldn't but they should be aware that inflation will put pressure on the labor market. People will leave if they are underpaid.

Leaders are "special". These bans are for people like us, not for them. I'm sure everyone in the government will be using effective encryption. They just don't want the masses using it against them because then it's subversive.

The corner of 3rd and Pine is the center of Seattle because it’s where all public transit intersects and is near the shopping district. It has had so much crime for so long that locals call the McDonalds there “McStabby’s.” It would be great if it felt as safe there as the rest of Seattle. Not sure what the city can do to change it, though.
It's simple. Inflation is driven by increasing the dollar amount for, well, everything. He is correct in saying that this is what drives inflation: If every single thing is worth 20% more, it's really just that the dollar is worth 17% less.

"Inflation" is shorthand for 'price inflation' - every single price and dollar amount goes up, and, when it happens too fast, can tear an economy apart (e.g. 1942 Berliners packing cash into wheelbarrows to go and buy bread).

EDIT: grammar
I get the point you're trying to make, but almost no one in the picture is really smiling, and many are clearly not intentionally. That stood out to me. I wouldn't be surprised if they were told not to, perhaps even in an attempt to avoid comments like yours.
No, since the redirect only works in the Tor Browser, in which case the cleartext connection is still a Tor connection.
On the apps, yes a ton of wildly popular services will vanish below 13yo.

I understand the calculation on the companies side, and there’s also a widespread “children shouldn’t be using/doing/viewing anything mildly risky” kind of mentality spreading around that makes it a no-risk move to just ban kids from a platform.

I recently wanted to move a youtube account inside the family management umbrella, and setting it’s age at 11 meant the account couldn’t see nor write comments on any video anymore. And there’s no authorization the parent can give to lift the restriction. Of course to move the age back you need an official ID as proof, so it was a one way move…
Yes, 2022 model is the 11th generation, much better looking than the 10th gen in my opinion.

One issue I noticed when following the tutorial is that it's very hard (if not impossible) to select the sketch origin after adding a diameter constraint to a circle on said origin; in order to follow the steps wherein I set the origin as the midpoint for a diagonal construction line, I had to delete the diameter constraint first, then add the midpoint constraint, and then re-add the diameter constraint.

Besides that nitpick, my first impression is that this is a long-overdue addition to Blender.

So when you remove an element from the list, how do you make sure both lists are updated? Are elements even likely to be removed in this use-case?
As a sibling said: there is a side with justice and truth on their side, and it’s not Russia.

Russia attacked Ukraine. Russia has been bombing, is bombing, and continues to bomb residential areas, hospitals, and schools in Ukrainian towns. The lies that the Kremlin spouts are so far-fetched that some Right-wing outlets here in the US parrot those lies as truth - “Nazis”, etc.

Russia also has a very powerful misinformation machine that is working now more than ever.

So I’ll take a little amplification of Ukrainian/NATO propaganda. At the very least, their claims of self-defense more than check out.
Russia is like 4% of China’s gdp. If they get enough sanctions soon enough they’ll not going to step into that shit.
The way I see it is Netflix is giant Enterprise Java shop. So most of their solutions are overwrought, complicated, full of heavily abstracted Java frameworks.

> Would like to talk about an extended warranty for your car?

… the people making these calls don't give a rat's ass about census data, accurate or otherwise. It's fraud, all of it. I get these all. the. time.; my current car is 25 years old, I guarantee you its warranty is not "about" to expire. I got these before I ever owned a car. They're not going to sell you an extended warranty, they're going to take the money and run. Accurate targeting doesn't matter.

Unless the census data has a column "is_sucker", but even then, I doubt it.

You could maybe alter that argument to be like "well but reputable ads then" … but, no, I doubt that too. Even with the tech we have, ads shown to eyeballs still making incredibly questionable "there is no way this has positive ROI" choices, like running the same ad twice in every commercial break. YT clearly has ~1 ad right now, that stupid game one whose name I cannot remember.
I dislike how companies are not only pushing proprietary mesh networks, but also making them automatically enabled for their users and opt-out. It feels like the companies are piggybacking on my internet connection, hardware and electricity for free to literally power their closed network. I don't get paid a penny for it, but their shareholders sure do.

Open mesh networks could be really cool, but instead of open networks, we get mesh networks that only allow Alexa to pump ads into your home, while excluding you, me and everyone else except Amazon and their partners from doing amazing things with the meshnets.

That assumes all the other variables remained the same. The 2008 banking collapse may have resulted in deflation without the big spending program, which just countered the deflation.

I somewhat agree. Tech comp seems to be up a lot more than inflation and I’m sure it’s going to lead to a lot of churn.
Free software has never been about demanding corporations open source their intellectual property. For example, Stallman didn't bring a bunch of protesters to Digital Equipment Corporation and the Bell System to beg that they relicense PDP and UNIX as GPL. What Stallman did was create an entirely new operating system that is not UNIX which let freedom loving people use UNIX while escaping the restrictions that were imposed upon users of UNIX.

Richard Stallman wrote at length in the past about how he feels it's ethical to use non-free systems to build free systems if there's no viable alternative. But you can only do that if there's a clean division between what you're doing and what the hardware vendors are doing. Unfortunately it's messy in the embedded world. These makers don't abstract the products they build like Intel does. They rely on legal means instead to secure their advantage. While many corporations might view an agreement to access those bits under restrictive terms as a good thing, it can lead an open source dev to feel like the proprietary stuff, which they intend to decouple themselves from and ultimately escape, is instead being rubbed in their faces. No one wants to be constantly reminded of all the freedom they don't have.

So in other words, it's just a compromise. I'm sure if they could find someone willing to manufacture a truly libre phone, they would have used them instead. I think the FSF has a good understanding of the open source developer's needs / wants / desires and this compromise is perfectly in keeping with that. Perhaps one day they'll attain the obvious end game of a libre phone, which would be a ham radio that looks like iphone with unfettered access to ss7. It will be anarchy. https://youtu.be/eXnvTwRBrgc
The economy appears to be in trouble. Your company could be afraid of that and trying to reduce costs. If this is industry wide that may become a trend.
The urgency behind CBDC tells me some things about the future:

- attack on competing digital wild moneys aka crypto

- uncontrollable inflation and erosion of US dollar despite rate increases

- a 4 sigma event causing super-deflation

- political instability from demographic most impacted by super-deflation

- social instability from demographic most vulnerable to super-inflation

- financial surveillance of said demographics

- the rich who survive can bypass CBDC via bartering hard assets
Last year's was delayed by half the year, and was 3%. This year is 3%.It is becoming harder and harder to justify staying.

Private lenders would simply guarantee the loan, which would be issue by the CB, creating new money.

I must also share, "how it's made - pre-packaged sandwiches": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HS_hnmHWEcg

This video has always fascinated me because this particular factory appears to operate "just in time" for many clients. Always wondered if it's just this one place making all these types of gas station sandwiches in America.
Inflation is also psychosocial. If people think inflation is happening they will want to be paid more. That’s what can cause a wage-price spiral, partially.
I was alive and watching the news, and you're completely wrong about TV news and the NY Times reporting, which freely admitted that Iraq didn't have a chemical weapons program (except for Fox News, which kept reporting that this time we found it without ever reporting that the last time wasn't what they suggested). The only thing that took a while was the apology for believing Bush administration sources in the run-up to the war.
Possession is 9/10ths of the law.

Is it any more unfair that Russia can't access those reserves than that foreigners can't access their Russian assets?

As long as things are frozen, they are in the hands of whoever has physical custody. If things remain as they are then the whole world has given their Russian financial assets back to Russia for free, haven't they?

Russia is huge, they should have lots of things within their borders. Plus, those borders are expanding!

For you and me, certainly. For the members of Congress you need to convince of this? They ARE the state. Outside of a few ideological libertarians, protecting the people from the state is not on their agenda.

> but only backdoored or weak encryption to keep the average attacker out.

I realize this is likely not your argument but the only thing that does is delay the access to data, not prevent it.

Private keys will eventually leak, if not publicly, through nation state espionage.

Weak encryption prevents the average attacker today but not the average attacker in the future.

You have to pat for "accurate" data, and then you need to pay someone to interpret it. All bigCo have such people and pay for the data (and get a discount by contributing their data).
That's why they have minimum terms, but not why they charge rent monthly and not as a lump sum at the start of the lease. They do that for the same reason Adobe created this billing scheme.
Yeah, there have been some quiet yet serious proposals about personal carbon rationing in recent years. People on the farther left are uncomfortable with carbon taxes or tradable credits because of inequality.
Yes, I was using a figure of speech. There is no reason CB can't create the loans directly, rather than necessarily going through commercial banks. It was not realistic before, without instant communications.

I don't think I have. I also have an iPad, and I have AirTags, and it does not have a battery drain problem, which is one additional data point for me. Plus, this is the default, expected behavior, and the post that started this discussion is disputing that. Without adequate evidence to back it up. The onus is on them to put forth convincing evidence, or it is nothing but another conspiracy theory. Presuming the status quo is not falling into any trap, it's what everyone should do when presented with a claim that deviates.
Hot Lanes: Introducing Congestion-Pricing One Lane at a Time (1997)
While it could be seen as a conflation in theory, in practice it almost certainly is. The purpose of a CBDC is complete government control over the monetary system, cash cannot remain in existence if this goal is achieved. Many advanced economies have been practically cashless for years, and the friction from phone payments via PCI networks to phone payments with a CBDC app is very little.

The loss of physical cash to the un & underbanked in the US will probably be the reason that a CBDC will not be adopted any time soon, highlighted as a risk in the recent paper. However in all states, CBDC is an inevitability, just as it is inevitable that cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are used day-to-day as an alternative to the state CBDC.
