In my experience status is not that reliable, but that doesn't change the result, as you mention at the end.

>And even if my status is green but I happen to still be busy for some reason, a chat notification is a chat notification. Saying "hello" is as much an intrusion as saying "hello, I have this problem with <x>, can you help me?" -- except if you just say "hello", then I have to respond and then wait more time for a second intrusive notification to find out what you need.

Yup, that's the key. The cost per distracting notification is _vastly_ higher than the cost per word read, so chat notifications should be crafted to minimise individual notifications more than words.
What China’s Social Media Is Saying About Ukraine
Similar. “How it is hanging” usually gets a response of the sort “<thoughtful look, shuffles hips> To the left, a little lower than usual. <pause for troubled look> Well, you did ask.”.
These things always come across as people being surprised humans aren't just super smart chat bots. Who cares if a friendly greeting adds 2 minutes
Russians Using Open Street Map to Attack Ukraine
Russiana are using Open Street Map to plan their assault on the streets of Ukraine. Any ideas on how to limit this?
Can you provide an example of what restrictions non-Jewish Israeli citizens have? Because I’m pretty sure all Israeli citizens have the same rights (Al Aqsa mosque and other religious sites notwithstanding).
I’m talking about drawing a false romantic narrative of an uprising of the people, when the reality is it’s just terror.

Lets call it a Terroristic Uprising, more suiting.
I hope CD never dies. It's a lossless, DRM-free physical format. There's nothing like it.
I had one person send "hi" to me. I ignored it hoping they'd send the question eventually without me saying "hi" back. After 30 mins they sent "hi" again...

I think from now on I'm just going to ignore it from the people who do it all the time. They won't get a response unless they actually tell me what they want.
There is no obligation for any state to issue citizenship to anyone, unfortunately.
I just played around with it and the emulation isn't bad. What's really missing is any way to mute/solo instruments. Without that, you can't even do an ad-hoc performance. The instruments have been stripped down to their bare capabilities and are not even close to a full recreation, UI changes aside. And of course there is no way to save/load sequences or settings. And I found several bugs where certain parameters didn't seem to work or toggling one thing changed the parameters of something completely unrelated.

So for anyone who dabbles in these instruments, it's a fun toy for about 5 minutes and that's it. I suspect you can't expect anything more out of a promotional piece.
I totally get that, and as someone who grew up in LA I'm accustomed to a frequency of pretense. To me personally, "how are you" and "what's up" are complicated questions no matter what mood I'm in. Where I live, if you respond with anything other than "good" or "great", they look at you funny even if they know you. Heaven forbid saying you're just "okay", because then you might need to see a therapist. /s

Besides, not every culture uses phatic expressions all the time and somehow their civilizations don't collapse. It's a matter of taste, and I'm not a fan.
But government!
You don't have to sit and watch the screen for a response. Reply with 'hi' and go back to whatever you were doing and ignore it until you're ready to answer it.

Maybe you are in an environment where everyone needs a fast reply from you and your undivided attention, in which case, I don't think it'd be unreasonable to link them nohello.net as your first reply.
PyTorch and TensorFlow are both primarily C++ codebases.
All of the above is true for Bandcamp except needing an internet connection initially but I don't imagine that's such a limiting factor. There's still CD sales going on there so the above doesn't explain it completely and I imagine the nostalgia, having a physical item, contrarianism etc. have a bigger hand in the resurgence.
This is ripgrep-all. rga and ripgrep-all are the same thing. rga is a wrapper around ripgrep.

Then their shop isn't certified as kosher and can't make food for religious customers, but otherwise, it works fine. I've gone to convenience stores, cafes, restaurants, movie theaters, etc dozens of times on Shabbat, in Israel.

I am tempted to agree about the steering wheel, but then I think of all of the situations where being able to take manual control would be really nice - like when towing a camper, or backing a boat down a ramp, or handing over to valet parking.

I think this is forcing a false dichotomy between having a steering wheel and driver liability for failures in the autonomous driving system. I think we can have a world with steering wheels and manufacturer responsibility... we just might not get there for a while.
> It is just part of a human-centric session initiation protocol.

It is the session initiation protocol for face-to-face communication. If you straight approach someone off in their own la-la land with a question, chances are they won't even hear it. "Hello" attracts their attention first.

Chat does not have that problem. If they are not paying attention at the time, they can read the question later. It does not disappear after it is stated.

Different tools for different jobs.

> Maybe the matter is time sensitive, maybe they don't want to disclose something immediately without setting context, finding something out first, whatever.

Still no reason to not provide some kind of meaningful background,

* "My computer won't turn on and I have a presentation in a few minutes. Can you help me with it? If I don't hear from you soon I will try Joe."

* "I have a sensitive matter to discuss with you that I cannot divulge until you have read the email from Mary. Please let me know when you've had a chance to do that."

* "What do you think about X? After you let me know I'll fill you in on Y."
> it would be a death sentence for Israel

That's a massive exaggeration.

It would theoretically be a risk for Israeli citizens living close to the border, but would lead to an overwhelming punitive response from the Israeli army, strongly backed by America.

Israel has by far the most capable military in the region, routinely inflicts casualty ratios of 10-20:1 in its favour in any conflict with Palestinians, and is backed by the most powerful military in the world.

The threat posed by an independent Palestine would be negligible. However the spectre of that threat is used to justify the continued occupation and expropriation of the West Bank.
After several startups shut down and caused me to scramble to export my data and change my workflow I've decided to put much less of my life in things that other companies can tear away from me. I use Dropbox, iCloud, etc. that I expect to stay available and without big price increases, as well as things like Spotify where I make sure to not invest too much time in curating playlists in case Spotify's pricing gets raised to the point where I don't want to use it anymore. Perhaps others have done the same.
I expected C with libcurl on the list, but in a sense that might be the toughest to implement.
I really hope to see that and maybe a movement emerging in that direction. Sadly teenagers are one good target for commercial music because they could be easily manipulated with tropes that no longer work for other age groups (but they did when they were teenagers).
Send them to Poland and require to pass Polish driving license exam.
When your flamethrower needs to shoot hundreds of thousands of little slime balls all at once using tiny little blasts of flame I think that targeting system becomes pretty damn vital!
a lot of us who were 80s kids who can practically recite Star Wars got that way cause we had a very small collection of movies

Yup. For me it was Risky Business, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and probably a few others.

Freshman year of college my roommate had a VCR. We learned that if we hooked up the VCR's RF output not to the TV input, but to the antenna, we could broadcast movies to the couple of neighboring rooms in the dorm.
The driver should know the capabilities of the car. If he doesn't, then he shouldn't drive it. If he isn't 100% sure that autonomous driving system will work as expected, then he should never enable that system.

I have some experience in navigating NHTSA when bringing new automotive tech to market. The following reflects my experience.

When working on cutting edge tech that have associated hazards (cars hurt people) what companies want is a clear set of standards to meet, as this goes a long way to showing due-diligence when things go wrong and lawsuits start showing up. But with new tech there are no standards, no generally accepted way of doing things. So how do you know if the system is capable/safe-enough to deploy in volume on our roads? How do you know you've done enough due diligence to confidently launch new tech without putting your company at financial risk? Let's face it, a big enough software bug (and associated liability) could potentially put Tesla completely out of business. When dealing with hazardous new tech, the threat of recalls and lawsuits weighs heavily on a company's decision making process.

When it comes to new tech, NHTSA is in no position to answer these questions. And they know it. If they knew better then they'd be the ones driving innovation. As it stands under capitalism the innovators are all working for private companies hoping for the big pay out. Knowing this, it would be counterproductive for NHTSA to say "we know better than to let a self driving car on the road". They don't know better and they don't want to get in the way of innovation.

So instead NHTSAs job is to setup a regulatory framework and set of rules to help these companies bring tech to market, while helping identify/limit bad actors. When lessons are learned (ex. ABS systems provide a clear benefit, and should generally do X Y and Z) these lessons get integrated back into the regulations as a guide to all players in the space. The regulations and standards improve over time as more-and-more millions-of-miles are driven and the tech/algorithms mature.

In my experience, NHTSAs attitude seems to be best summarized as: Innovation is good for America and the last thing we want to do is stop you from developing cool new things. But we have no idea what your new tech should/shouldn't do. The risk is all on you, your company ultimately bears the legal responsibility for your products. You'll have to determine if your product is ready for market all on your own -- and failure carries a high price tag. Now... if/when the tech matures, and the industry seems to generally agree that "new tech X" should include "X Y and Z" as part of the safety/risk equation, then we'll add that to the regulatory framework. But until the tech matures and the clear path forward is known we don't want to stifle innovation.

This is about the best you can do in this situation. ADAS is new, and no one knows where we'll end up. No one, including you and me, knows if these systems can be deployed safely. Personally I don't trust ADAS systems, and believe the financial risk would be too high to risk my company. But what do I know?

It seems that the message being sent here is: "We're ready to start dealing with cars that don't have human controls. Best of luck to all those who dare play in the space."
Same here. My team has people across the US and also in India. Timezones are a definite consideration.
If you're asking a quick, informational, easy thing, then "Hi! What is the test server name?" is good.

But dropping something upfront that is ambiguous or requiring thought isn't great. If you drop a thorny problem on someone, you may kind of force a context change on them, causing them to drop their train of thought and focus on what you need instead.

You can pre-compose your longer thought/question. Then paste it once any pleasantries are over and you have the other person's attention. They don't need to wait for your typing and you can take your time to compose the right message, if you need it.
The response from Putin is because the window to conquer Ukraine and force it back under the control of the Russian Empire that Putin dreams of, was closing. He knew that if Ukraine got too built-up militarily, or got too close to NATO, his opportunity would vanish. He similarly dreams of reclaiming Belarus formally. Putin hasn't been shy about any of this, he openly admits the lust for conquering former USSR territory and rebuilding the empire.

Putin lied and claimed a big part of the core issue is not wanting NATO's borders moving any closer. So he attempts to annex Ukraine into the empire and move borders closer to NATO. Obvious lies are obvious.
In the early days of iOS there were tons of those apps.

"""One of the first attempts to initiate the geotagging aspect of searching and locating articles seems to be the now-inoperative site Wikinear.com, launched in 2008, which showed the user Wikipedia pages that are geographically closest to one's current location.

The 2009 app Cyclopedia works relatively well showing geotagged Wikipedia articles located within several miles of ones location, integrated with a street-view mode, and 360-degree mode."""
Based on my experience trying to navigate with OSM, if the Russians were using this to get to Kiev they would likely end up in Minsk before realizing they were off course.
Hah! Touché.
> I genuinely don't believe the analogy of Dutch settlers colonizing Africa is comparable to displaced Jews establishing Israel. But again, you could consider my use of colonizing versus establishing a semantic sleight of hand. Depending on your definition of colonization, you could say Israel is a colonial state.

What else is it but a sleight of hand? Like in your first comment, all of your words are chosen to sound like Israel was formed on un-ocuppied land, as if the Zionist movement found a piece of desert and established a Jewish state there, and now their envious neighbors are seeking to colonize and attack them. In fact, they came and settled an area of immense religious significance to half the world's population that had been inhabited by hundreds of thousands or millions of Arabs for hundreds of years.

And they came with the explicit intention of not only living there, but being the majority population there: an act that explicitly required an ethnic cleansing (or genocide) of Palestine by its very definition.
Can you be specific? I’m reasonably sure this isn’t true. The only difference in how non-Jewish Israeli citizens are treated that I’m aware of is that non-Jewish citizens are exempt from conscription. I’m always open to learning more, however.

Otherwise, you seem to be talking about special legal carve-outs related to contested territories for restrictions on movement. The claim that non-Jewish Israel citizens are not allowed to live their partner is utter nonsense, unless by “live with” you mean “confer residency rights” but that seems like a dishonest framing.

Edit (responding to your edit): While that’s a shitty message and you can take issue with that (and related cultural issues in Israel), Netanyahu also notes that “Arab citizens have equal rights”. You’re actually asserting that this isn’t the case and need to explain how.
If you go on Russian social media sites, there's an interesting phenomenon of many of them obviously disliking Putin while buying his propaganda wholesale about the West and Ukraine's Nazi government
Circumstances differ of course but it helps to have as few notifications turned on as possible. I don't know how some people manage when their phone or computer is pinging them for just about every random event.
I am certain I have contributed to this statistic.

I was sent off the deep end after Spotify removed one song in particular from my playlist that I really wanted to listen to on one occasion.

We are only into the month of March, and I have already spent ~$500 YTD on physical CDs, BluRays and other multimedia formats. Last year I probably spent close to 3-4k on the same.

The rate at which I have pirated content (which is otherwise difficult to source on physical media) is also up dramatically since this incident.
My guess is digital purchases became easier just before flash memory was cheap enough to use for albums. Also, distribution is much simpler, and the labels can get more profit due to decreased manufacturing costs.
First, when it was proposed to eliminate some of the open head count for the police, it was soundly defeated by a SCC vote. They aren’t going to defund the police so explicitly, even if their support has a lacking.

Second, if you haven’t noticed, everyone is having trouble hiring right now. The negative vibes for the job are definitely significant, but this is also part of a more broad labor shortage.
Incopabiltiy can happen incredibly fast.

One of our backends had a route called /statistics for showing application statistics to the user.

Some Adblockers with some lists block routes named like that which caused a confused bug hunt.

Which is unfortunate, but I don't feel that bad about coming across as rude while telling someone that I found what they did rude.
what is the definition of an aTM?

Are those machines that take gift card and give you money in exchange also considered ATM.

According to the government crypto is not a currency. So it’s can compared to collecting baseball card or stamps.
Interfaith marriage is illegal (people with money have interfaith marriages overseas), and if you have a child with a married partner of another faith the child will not have the father on the birth certificate.
Mullings on Nocode Backed by Domain-Driven Design Foundations
Blame government for not understanding unintended consequences when they pass laws regarding tech (GDPR)
I would love to dive into discussion about nocode in conjunction with domain-driven design. vlingo is a reference point, though it seems intimidated with respect to nocode. I know there have been a few java solutions that kind of did the domain driven design part, but were certainly nothing close to no code. My thesis is that one could sneak domain driven design into nocode without requiring familiarity with the user and that this could be a powerful combination.
Really surprised no one got this.
You always want a physical failsafe control (i.e. big red button for emergency stop)... it's not clear if nhtsa requires that or not.

The practicality of manually driving is not going away. Just this week my neighbor was driving up and down his driveway to transport some heavy packages received.
This annoys me too, especially since you can add a pet as fluff (pun intended) to a talk, while also integrating them as an example. I use my dog to demo things all the time. "here's our sample user, Lucy. She's not too smart, so let's see how she navigates this UI". That's just a good speaking tactic.
Considering Israel does not, and never has allowed American forces to be stationed inside Israel, this seems pretty unlikely.
Does that just mean its all angel investors and family offices?
Anyone claiming they are safer now.. vs what? Getting into a Tesla, turning on fsd and taking a snooze? Wonder how many millions of miles that would last without a fatality or car wreck. A lot less than 1 million I wager.
Bringing practical applications of quantum computing closer
When I joined it was about 15 employees. When I left it was about 150 (but still under 30 devs) so this wouldn't really be reasonable.

But part of the problem was they did know simple enough regex for what they wanted to accomplish. Having a few simple regex and some application logic around them would have done it. But they'd often think "that sounds messy, squeaky-clean can probably solve this in a single regex." And while I probably could, it would not be good code nor would it be more performant.
If I were to die on an English-related hill, I would probably pick one that didn't put me in opposition with Shakespeare.
>Or is support of cultural preservation only virtuous when the alternative is labeled "gentrification"?

Well yeah. "Cultural preservation" is only good when the NGO class supports it. When they don't like it, it's racism.
I feel like this is a carryover from text messaging, where people ask things like “Hey! What’s new?”

Personally, I also hate that kind of text interaction. I vastly prefer a phone call for catching up, because at least each party’s attention is fully on each other and there’s a defined end to the conversation. I’m probably in a shrinking minority with that opinion, having grown up in a time when phone calls were ubiquitous. But when someone’s glued to their phone because they don’t want to be perceived as replying too slowly, what’s the point of texting?
If anyone actually thinks those two things and lives in Seattle they make up a very tiny, and paranoid minority.
> Do you think the word "hostile" only applies when you meet people physically?

Not literally, no. But if someone is mean to you in a chat channel you just close it and poof it's gone. It's as hostile as someone just not liking you. That's what I meant. In a busy chat channel asking to ask or testing the waters is just spammy and most people will just ignore a vague, pointless question like "is anyone around?"

Just ask your question. Worst case scenario people say mean stuff and you just leave and try somewhere else. I've done that when people just ignore my question or give glib replies. Then I go ask somewhere else.

FWIW I didn't think I was being aggressive, but thought it might be interpreted that way since disagreement online often is. Maybe I'm showing my hand here but I really can't tell what was mean about it.
The pictures make them look almost textured / ridged, is that noticeable when you hold it? I went through quite a bit of effort to sand my prototype (it's PLA, can't be acetone-smoothed), and I think it's nicer for it, but maybe the Ploopy's material (ABS?) feels nice enough un-smoothed.
i’ve been buying cds for a while, mostly just new albums of a few of my favorite artists. the only thing that worries me is that most new cars don’t have cd players anymore.

I also bought some cassettes a few years ago that are pretty valuable now, but absolutely nowhere to play them since my old car was my only cassette player.
I believe that Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza are essentially stateless. It is similar to the South African Bantustans where you put an undesirable population so that they have a little bit of self-government so that you can justify excluding them from the electorate of the main nation, but not enough to actually be their own country, so you can essentially still manage that land.
And before monotheism took over... well polytheistic societies don't really have "a religion" that is separate from other polytheistic religions. There are lots of gods and people focus on different ones. The next town over seems to have similar gods, but some of the stories are a little different and one or two has a different name... or is that a different god altogether. That town really far away talks funny, every god has a different name and some of them have wildly different stories, but a lot of it is still recognizable...

In other words, religious tolerance with polytheistic societies looks a lot different than the "my god/prophet vs. yours" which is much more prominent with monotheistic religions.
My biggest issue with web advertising is placing video ads on a text website.

Your eye is constantly flicking over to the flashing lights making the ability to focus impossible. Ad blockers are the only thing that makes most ad supported sites usable.
