I think you're being incredibly dismissive and a little condescending for no reason about his concerns, I'm sure they "considered" that while yes there is legal recourse if eBay were to take money out they weren't supposed to, the process isn't a 100% guarantee by any means, and you're still out that money while it's being investigated/resolved. Not everyone is in the privileged position of being able to float a couple thousand dollars while an issue like this is being resolved.

Even vanilla Twitter allows you to get strict chrono order by switching your home-page. It does not show "likes" and reduces the use of "trending" iirc.

It does show retweets, though.
Did you follow the link to the actual poll? https://news.gallup.com/poll/388781/political-party-preferen...

42% may identify as "independent," but only 9% are independent without leaning Republican or Democrat. Not registering officially with the party, but still always voting for them, is quite a bit different from actually not having a preference or wanting a third party.

What do you mean? A parser is just a program that parses input following a grammar into some kind of internal representation. Did you mean you can't write a compiler? A parser is just a small part of that.
That's fine. Then rich westerners should not care when it gets destroyed.

Cinebench R23 is a worst case scenario for M1 because it doesn't have high core utilization and sits in L2 cache. If you look at a broader set of benchmarks (SPEC) then M1 Max in laptop form is competitive anywhere from a 5800x to a 5950x.

Twitter, as a service, is incredibly user-hostile[0]. It's not all that surprising to see a quote like this:

Not just latency, but framerate too.

I wanted to build a gaming PC that would double as a Windows dev machine, so I wanted more pixels than 1080p.

Even with my 3090, I can only reasonably do 1440p @ 240Hz, and even then I lose some frames on Fortnite with graphics settings turned down. 4k was out. Thankfully Alienware makes a very nice 1440p 240Hz monitor.

It is not only about what you have, but also about what you don't want your foe/customer to have. Lots of natural gas was discovered in Ukraine around 2011-2016. Donbass is famous for its coal mining too and you should also consider the numerous NPPs that provide about half of Ukraine's electricity. Imagine all these assets in the hands of US/EU companies. Now that sounds like becoming less energy dependent from Russia. You should inquire about some of the reasons for Syrian war too. It all looks like a big blatant chess game and you will be very lucky if you are just a spectator. Btw current mainstream media reporting from both sides is mostly useless.

A lot of oil produced in the US cannot be used in the US. It's too dirty and so gets shipped to countries with less environmental protections in place.

This is sound logic and probably be the case but I wonder if this effect will be less than what we have seen in the past because of the reduced TDP of the M1 processors in general.

PolitiFact's article is foolishly splitting hairs. The concern about Keystone XL's exports was never about the oil but the refined products (gas, etc). The Texas refineries that would have been at the XL's terminus already export a majority of their refined products.

They're not the only refineries that handle heavy crude but they are the ones with the easiest access to the export markets of Central and South America.
Choosing Twitter in particular as vehicle to say "most people aren't public online" has an odd logic to it.

Twitter has a reputation as one of the most toxic of social networks. Stories of Tweets that exposed someone to tremendous harassment or embarrassment are rife. I make quite a variety of posts and comments online, occassionally publishing article in blog and so-forth. But I avoid Twitter in particular "like the plague", which it seems resemble.

Yet it also seems to be true that Twitter is taken as the standard of "being public" by much of the press. And it seems like this standard comes from both journalists operating by the instant-answer, instant-gratification standard of Twitter and an overall, "you have to be willing to take the heat to be credible" attitude of those in high government, private industry, bureaucracies and so-forth. And this expresses a toxicity to not just Twitter but our entire society.

Regardless, there is absolutely no necessity for a gold standard to be implemented for deflationary activity to occur. It occurs in fiat currencies as a function of the velocity of money dropping suddenly.
Personally, no, but the GP did say "allowing any arbitrary scale" and that's what I was referring to. Why Apple does not allow 150% is beyond me because it is quite reasonable. But I can understand why they don't allow users to enter a value like 168%.

Hopefully one of the changes of the M2 design will be a better decorrelation of RAM and cores count.

They’d need that anyway for a Mac Pro replacement (128GB wouldn’t cut it for everyone), but even for smaller config it’s frustrating being limited to 16G on the M1 and 32 on the Pro. Just because I need more RAM doesn’t mean I want the extra size and heat or whatever.

From the text above: "Optery is only for U.S. residents for the time being" - sorry that wasn't obvious (it's my editing failure).

It seems normal now.

Not down, just slow to respond and periodically getting the "We're having trouble serving your request" page
The "few people" who use those apps are the people Apple is selling these systems to.
Great to hear you are fighting the good fight to protect your data!

To answer your question - NO - there is no benefit to signing up for Optery if you do not have a presence in the U.S. The only benefit would be that we will notify you in the future when we begin offering our service in your country. This sentence is buried in the post above "Optery is only for U.S. residents for the time being, and this is one main reasons—the problem is at its worst here."

The reasons the service is charged on an ongoing recurring fee are:

1) We are constantly adding new data brokers, so if you keep the service running, you get covered for new data brokers as we add them to your plan.

2) We do ongoing monitoring and scans, to find and remove your profiles if they pop back up. Unfortunately, over time, many data brokers start adding it back. The CCPA (California's Privacy Law) permits a data broker to stop honoring an opt out after 12 months. After opting out, many data brokers actually display a message apologizing in advance admitting that sometimes their opt out records are over-written by accident which might cause your data to reappear.
It's cheap for what it is. If you need a machine like this, then what else could you buy?

Gaming benchmarks are completely irrelevant when discussing the actual raw power of the GPU. As the other commenter said- look at the actual GPU benchmark in the first graph.

Legacy games written for x86 CPUs obviously are going to perform poorly. I recommend you actually read the review and don't just scroll to the worst gaming benchmark you can find.
No, but it does include cache; the M1 Ultra should have 96MB of cache (>6B transistors) while Nvidia GPUs have relatively little cache. 128GB of DRAM has 1 trillion transistors.
Look at the studies that have been done by the Federal Reserve.

Their plans include digital wallets --- with credentials created and assigned by a bank partner but with the ability to be used P2P without any permission required --- just like cash.

I assume this would involve a 2FA type security setup. A friend could transfer money to you using just your account ID to create and send you a transaction token.

But to mug someone, you would need to not only take possession of their phone but also obtain their wallet authorization key. The mugger could then access only what is currently stored in the wallet.

The now outdated Mac Pro goes up to 1.5TB, only 128GB available here.
That line is blatantly dishonest, but not for the reasons you pointed out. While the i9-12900K is a 16-core processor, it uses Intel's version of big.LITTLE. Eight of its 16 cores are relatively low performance 'E' cores. This means it has only half the performance cores of the M1 Ultra, yet it achieves 3/4 of the performance by Apple's own graphic.

Alder Lake has been repeatedly shown to outperform M1 core-per-core. The M1 Ultra is just way bigger. (And way more power efficient, which is a tremendous achievement for laptops but irrelevant for desktops.)
Its behind M1 but it's worth pointing out that Alder Lake is not a power-hog on "normal" workloads i.e. gaming when compared to it's other X86 competitors. It only starts cooking itself on extremely heavy workloads.
It’s probably not “average developer” either but some of the big box software still has per-socket licensing, or had until recently anyway.
Does Twitter respect this toggled option and persist the state?

I’m a little burned out fighting over user preferences across social media that seem to always toggle themselves back to whatever default the platform wants that day.
Nearly impossible, and I'm saying this as a lifetime Android user.

Your best bet would be boutique OEMs like Unihertz, who have a 3.1-inch Jelly phone (underpowered) and a Blackberry style Titan Pocket with a hardware keyboard and 4-inch screen.

Neither of these sound like what you want. In the Android world, one can only hope that another small-time OEM will swoop in to fill the gap, before inevitably disappearing.
Issue is usually in defining terms like 'transphobe' - I've encountered folks who define that as someone who wouldn't be willing to sleep with or be attracted to a trans person in the same way as a biological female. I think that's an example of an area people are just going to have to agree to disagree.

If there any confirmation on if this new version is compatible with no sim card? One of the things I enjoy about the pixel budget phones is that it's simless but I was thinking of switching.
Livecode works in that fashion but it might be too costly to explore. The learning curves are always steep in just finding out if an environment can do what you need. XOJO is another option, again for whatever reason, these types of tools lost out in the last Cambrian explosion. The free-ish versions of Delphi are out there, but again, by the time one factors in the cost of just sorting out the options, a lot of water has passed under the bridge.

Here are some comments related to ID2 from a Livecode forum ...

I would guess that the representation of public figures on Twitter is pretty high, maybe 70% or more (absolutely no data behind this, just my guess based on personal experience and a subjective definition of "public figure").

That said, the vast majority of those people just use Twitter to announce their various public events, professional accomplishments, media releases, etc.

IMO this is the way to go, unless you enjoy and get something out of the rough-and-tumble of direct Twitter engagement. I used to for a little while, but got over it. It definitely made me a more contentious person, for better and worse.
Okay, try that in rural Scotland ;)

Intel 12th gen i9 is 11% better at single core and 42% slower at multicore. https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-intel_core_i9_1290...

For most non-parallel tasks, my guess is the Intel 12900K will beat at performance.

Intel's next generation will have 50% more cores and beat this chip at multithreading.
If you're going to be smug why not use a recent Intel chip?

From Norman Doidge's book "The Brain That Changes Itself", I learned that:

Long term white noise exposure might be associated with hearing loss, especially age-related. The theory was that "nerves that fire together, wire together", too much white noise compared to clear sounds will cause the neural mapping for sounds to gradually become fuzzier, making distinctions between sounds will become harder.
No, this is exactly what happened. My tweet suggested nearly verbatim what I said above, and in response I got verbally abused and insulted by literally dozens of people from the trans community. They scrubbed through my tweet history, replying to old tweets and reporting anything they could. They reported a very old tweet where I promoted pacifism (I'm a pacifist), but it was sarcastic, stating that if we are gonna punch Nazis, we might as well punch mujahideen, ISIS, pro-lifers, Zionists, etc. They took advantage of the fact that sarcasm can be read both ways, and I was banned for promoting violence. Nevertheless I was cancelled due to my comments on free speech.

Choose to believe it or not, that's your business, but this is exactly what happened.
There is more randomness in an individual baseball game that necessitates a longer season to crown a winner. Football teams have gone undefeated during the regular season. The best regular season basketball teams of all time have won close to 90% of their games. The baseball team with the most regular season wins in the last century had a record of 116-46 for a winning percentage of just under 72%.

There is and old baseball saying that no matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference.

40 games simply wouldn't be enough to figure out which teams are actually good.
Fighter jets are expensive beasts more so for smaller economies.

Small Air forces normally have multiple pilots on a training rota for each jet, the multiple can be several times over depending on how tight your air force budget is. So yes between active pilots and reservists they will most likely have pilots for all of them.
Truly, a fascinating perspective, thank you.

Just for the context: I would say I'm a natural intuitive bottom-upper, except that I can't help but reconsider everything my intuitive self learns from a strongly analytical top-down way.

From that perspective and 30+ years of experience (where I like to think I'm at least open to being completely wrong about anything and everything), I think top-down, prescriptive solutions can be useful and effective, but need to understand and carve out the holes (and conservatively large ones at that) for "local" concerns - BTW, "local" often typically just means lower, where there the lower level itself can have "global" and "local" concerns.

Now, I know this often doesn't happen, so let's lay out how it can work:

- there's a top-down person -- "Tim" in the article -- who has responsibility for for developing a solution

- there are the separate teams, who are responsible for communicating feedback on potential solutions.

Also, I wish I didn't need to point this out, but "responsibility for" === "authority/control over".

(If that's not the case, then never mind: you essentially have a "free-for-all" organization, and just better hope someone who's not too crazy wins the cage-match and can hang on long enough to be a net positive.)
If they've taken a lot of Ukrainian refugees, then your point holds a value; the point of their segment was the racism factor. If a country (let's say, India), it's not open to ANY refugees, then it's a different topic.
Has widespread use of lead been exclusive to the US ? I'd imagine that there are other countries which still haven't transitioned off lead, and that they can be used as control. Alternately, are there states that never embraced widespread lead use and if they can be used as a control too ?

Some also attribute the removal of lead to substantial decrease in violence over the last few decades.
So, I am not surprised that the effect size here is so large.

Might an impolite question to ask, but is there a known correlation between IQ and propensity for physical violence ? (controlled for socio economics and protected classes of course)

It might not affect the day to day, but with this many senior community members speaking up over the years, and leaving Ruby/Rails, I have to imagine it has stunted the growth and progression of the ecosystem.

When I look s as t the transformation that has happened to Python/Django over the last 10 years, compared to Rails, it does feel like it might be the case, although that’s my biased personal point of view.
