'Keep the Russians out, the Americans in, and the Germans down'

Words of the first NATO secretary. So, if people start a club to avoid you and you know it, applying to it is a troll move, no?
It doesn't. It wastes time and it's only used because your stack is built on EF6 database first and it's the only method to update your ORM entities
I live near a walgreens with this, and the worst part about it is when the screen is broken, and it doesn't serve the basic purpose of allowing me to know what beverages are behind the window.

Actually, now that I think of it when the system is "working properly" I still can't be sure of what's behind the door if I open it.

Totally worthless use of technology.
It is unclear to me how these two examples of government failure have anything to do with libertarian views. The bank regulators failed and basically nobody was criminally charged for running undercapitalized financial institutions.

This is at least partially about papering over inventory, theft or stocking neatness issues without increasing their inventory on hand or finding enough staff. Walgreens has just about had it trying to make its current retail model work in some markets. Ultimately, solutions like Cooler Screens are stopgaps on the way to smaller stores that just vend, hand out online orders, and other things that don't require managing shelves and aisles on the retail side. (Source: a regional retail manager at WBA.)
So, an alternative view point here. Fwiw I'm Iranian and I'm living in the US.

I kinda agree with you that just dismissing it like that feels off-putting. However, I actually want people (mainly westerners) to admit that they don't know how shit works there, and how, for example, Iranians deal with conflicts and grief.

What I don't want is that they assume that the way Americans do it is the right way, and everyone else is wrong. Or that they really could have any reasonable opinion that isn't going to make the shit worse without REALLY taking the time to try to learn and talk about what's going on and how to not fuck it up even more because America and Europe keep fucking it up.
I don't understand the argument here. You yourself just cited Chapter 3 of Color of Law, which makes a persuasive case that the United States remains under a system of de jure racial segregation, in which a specific animus against Black families undergirds essentially all our zoning laws.
Can't lose that sweet Walgreens contract, right?
Worse is that our American foreign policy-wonk industry believe they understand Russia. And Iraq, Afghanistan, China, etc. They also seem to be the same ones informing media giants from CNN to Fox. Come to think of it, while I enjoy my country we’re atrocious at understanding pretty much any other country. Except maybe Canada.
Biden could've revived the JCPOA the second he took office.

There's literally no point in Iran joining a new deal. The only way I can see Iran would join a new deal is reperations from America for having trump just get up and leave from the agreement for no good reason. Oh and for assassinating a military personnel.
Putin is cancelling himself.

Up until a few weeks ago he was always respected as much as possible in spite of his shortcomings.

He was right up there with any of the previous Russian or Soviet leaders who shrewdly managed to avoid anything like a mobilization of armies to invade a neighboring country the least bit reminiscent of WWII.

Now even if Ukraine is completely conquered and regardless of what becomes of Zelinskyy, there will always be some leader of Ukraininan descent who is more respectable than Putin.

Forever.
> "No extradition treaty" doesn't necessarily guarantee "no extradition".

I must admit that's true. Case in point:

> Although Indonesia has no formal extradition treaty with the United States, the Indonesian National Police-Bali worked with the FBI to take Pearlman into custody, and the country expelled him as "an undesirable visitor," the FBI said.[0]

So he would have to secure his permanent residency in advance, and hope that no US administration would waste any carrots or sticks on capturing someone who would be viewed by many as a political prisoner.

You made me look it up. Methane has no smell, so they add an odorant. Usually these contain sulfur, so there will be some amount of sulfur dioxide in the combustion products. Sulfur levels as limited to 70ppb, and are typically around 7ppb. This compares to a natural atmospheric level of sulfur dioxide at 1ppb. So unless you are breathing something like 10% combustion product the contribution is negligible.

The rest of the odor molecule is hyrdrogen, carbon, and oxygen, so likely goes to water and carbon dioxide or monoxide.

The best argument for induction cooking is how easy cleaning it.

The fact that they don't pollute your home as much, and that installation is cheaper are just extra cherries on top.

If you spill something, on an induction stove you just wipe it with a cloth. It doesn't even burn onto the stove.

What more arguments do you need?
> replace our 150A panel with a 200A one,

A 150A panel should accommodate both your induction stove and EV charger. The stove's 50A rating assumes you are running all burners are running simultaneously, which is rare. You need 200A if you going fully electric (for hot water, HVAC, oven and clothes dryer).
Theory about the structure of theories?
The author makes a good case for why private coaching in DMs is an effective way of improving the Quality of the Discourse(TM) but not why anyone would invest the effort to do this.
It's helpful to do that because it provides like-with-like comparisons.

Functionally the EU operates with zero internal customs etc, free movement of people etc. It also represents a population group of a similar size to the US and China.

In the same way, breaking down manufacturing in the US by state, and comparing each state to China is not helpful, so dealing with each European country invidually in the comparison would not be helpful.
USA can restrict import of medical devices and already makes it broadly illegal to import medical drugs.

This is awesomely cool!

I'm very curious about how the physics in libsm64 relates to the original ROM code, if you happen to know. Based on my quick browse through the code, functions like "find_floor_from_list"[1] seem to be just exhaustively iterating through every triangle in the scene to see which one has the closest intersection point. But that couldn't possibly have been efficient enough to do real-time collision detection on an entire level using N64 hardware -- could it?

Did the original game use a more sophisticated data structure that was stubbed out in the library version? Or am I overestimating how slow the brute-force approach would be?

Just curious, if we are discussing cooking, safety, health and the environment, why did the author not discuss Teflon™ pans and how "unsafe" and damaging this is not only to health but also the environment?

If you want to make certain forms of energy "illegal" because of some "lung-irritating pollutants", I mean why not start with the unsustainability and cancer risks of these poly type chemicals, no? Especially ones coming in direct contact with your food, and your water supply (a.k.a Dish Washing?)? Never mind the actual environmental damage of manufacturing chemicals like these?

Social media turn on Putin, the past master
> The government [is] not going to have [it] where anyone [...] can just anonymously send / receive coins

You mean, like you can with cash?

I understand being skeptical of the government, but we already have "electronic" money in the form of Credit cards, where everything you speculate about is already possible by BOTH the government AND private banks.

Government enforcement against people committing all kinds of crimes is uneven and unfair, but I doubt the Federal Government is interested in mobilizing against parking ticket offenders, unless their crimes somehow relate them with Al Capone.
If the Federal Government believes you have ill-gotten money in your possession, you can have that money seized right now; no need for fancy digital or crypto stuff.

The Feds have taken on ransomware gangs and others in the crypto realm already -- doing "bad things" that are illegal with crypto is still illegal, without the need to have fancy escrow/approval/gov't stuff in there.
Woks can have flat bottoms with a round surface for cooking
My vent is about 5 feet above the stove. We had to build a little soffit to get it just within code regulations. It has a huge blower that is located in a small attic space about 20 feet away. 100% recommend! You can’t hear it at all and you can watch all the vapor and smoke from the stove waft right up and away into the unit.

The remote eats a pair of CR2450 cells every three months, so that could have been done better.

The problem with this thinking is you're referring to a constant factor; you'd be cooking the same foods either way, searing all the same.

These effects are cumulative, it's not some threshold you cross where the other negatives are no longer relevant because you do something far worse.

It's like people who rationalize eating a pint of ice cream before bed because they had mcdonalds and a beer for lunch already. The appropriate action would be to skip dinner and dessert altogether, but they're doing the opposite due to such wrongheaded thinking.

You should really be thinking "hey, my cooking produces a lot of particulates, I wonder if I can clean up the process elsewhere at least"

When my wife and I were choosing rentals, the only thing I refused to compromise was a gas stove. At least in my case, it's entirely a sensual thing. There's a real joy in lighting the fire, feeling its warmth, making the flame larger and smaller with the knob, and the way it heats up the pan.

I know a lot of older Greeks/Italians are the same way with their gas ovens. There's just something magical about it that turns your time in the kitchen from a chore into something you look forward to.
It’s not THAT much of an advantage, since the area of unused burners can be already used as extra counter space, since it flat and resilient. Actually that seems like a major advantage over a gas stove, that’s rarely mentioned.

Revealing an Ice Age route for indigenous peoples
This 996 culture also exists in Taiwan (a democracy). Hard-work is a core part of Chinese Confucian philosophy (as is competitiveness). Many of my Chinese & Taiwanese coworkers have told me they emigrated overseas to US and EU just so they can work less (while still working more than everyone else in the company).

While slavery is forced labor, 996 is more about people trying to get ahead. During my wall street days, I elected to work 8 am - 2 am, 7 days a week for subpar pay, all because of future potential rewards. Many of my peers dropped out due to the pressure and didn't stick around for the big payoffs. If you interview them, no doubt they would consider themselves "slave labor."

That's true, morality and legality are different, although one hopes laws will generally reflect society's view of morality. But you're right, discriminating against people based on their race or sexual orientation is immoral regardless of its legality. And requiring a mask in one's establishment during a respiratory pandemic is entirely reasonable, regardless of its legality.

The better European induction cooktops have an individual touch slider control per "ring". I have some family members with those and that control model makes the touch thing a non-issue. No need to wait while pressing +/- either, you just plonk your finger down roughly where you want to be and slide to fine-tune.

A mall across the Lenin mausolee in Soviet Union, pretty intriguing

> Several times during the 1960s and 1970s, the Second Secretary of the Communist Party Mikhail Suslov, who hated the idea of having a Department store across the Mausoleum of Lenin, tried to convert GUM into a Exhibition hall and Museum showcasing the achievements of the Soviet Union and Communism, without the knowledge of General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev. Each time however, Brezhnev was tipped off and put a stop to such plans.[8]

Have used .Net for a long time as a casual user; generally just to get a task done. C# is vastly easier to approach in 2022 for a casual user. .Net Core is great strategic step and IMHO should be the only .NET platform there is.

For those wanting a simple browser UI then use the Nancy framework. Its brilliant for tooling and simple desktop apps.

fav language of all time is Python having used since 2001. There are libs and examples online for everything and then some.

Now learning Go and after that plan to tackle Lua.

Nothing wrong with most mainstream languages for 90% of use cases in their chosen domains. Sometimes the road is rocky but if the basic premise of the language suits your use case then stick with. The speedbumps are good learning experiences.

As a back-end developer, I was recently impressed by how quickly I was able to get up and running with Vercel, having started a vanilla JS project with Vite. Single change to my DNS records, and it's all setup at a custom domain in no time. If I was doing this project, I'd probably do it like that?

UPDATE: I'm procrastinating other projects. https://grou.ch (or https://passwordpurgatory.vercel.app/ if DNS hasn't propogated yet)

Times taken:

45s run vite

8m basic vanilla HTML scaffold

4.5m add some better password rules

1.75m setup in Bitbucket

1m Add to Vercel

1.5m setup custom domain

If I wanted to capture attempts, I'd probably do it via Google Analytics? It's magic to me how quick this tooling is -- just over 15m to get this up on the internet, https etc, domain, from literally nothing.
The cost of the authors solution is quite high.

Which politicians in which party care? The current admin isn't Trump anymore.
> the true root cause, imho, is that the leadership in russia imagines themselves to be the superpower and have the natural right to influence in the region (and the exclusion of other superpower's influence).

Moscow is actively demonstrating that they are that regional power, and Washington is not.

The real root cause is that the leadership of Washington thinks this exact same way, and this is a contradiction. Only Ukraine is in Moscow's front yard, not Washington's, and has a lot of ethnically Russian people. The case for Ukraine being in Moscow's sphere of influence is far stronger than it being in Washington's.

I just want Haagen Dazs ice cream. But I cannot see which freezer it is actually in until the ad stops, then it states it is in this particular freezer. But it isn't because they ran out and an employee hasn't restocked.

Next the doors on the freezer will lock until the ad has finished playing all the way through, and the ad will stop playing if you look away in distraction.

Also, the gas will stop pumping if you don't look at ad on the screen on the pump at the gas station and you must also verbally engage with the ad when it asks a question otherwise it stops pumping.
