In many domains, higher prices fail to deliver better quality. You just pay more.

People learn to optimize for less anger over being cheated: it doesn't work well, but you didn't pay much. If you had paid more, you would (probably) be equally dissatisfied, but also feel like you got suckered.
It literally isn't a browser monopoly. Whether they fund them or not, Firefox and Safari are equally useable browsers.

I use Firefox as a daily driver in both desktop and mobile and have zero issues.

Hell, chromium can do everything chrome can.

Maybe they're a monopoly in the online advertising space but I'd argue that's simply because they're better.
> The deal is simple: when Russia stops slaughtering Ukrainian civilians, the rest of the world will stop isolating their economy.

The world will not stop isolating Russia while Putin is still in power. And even after he's gone (death from natural causes in 10 to 15 years), it will take another 5 years to partially recover our relationship with the world. The full recovery will never happen.
Their monopoly power is the only obstacle to the Web developers updating their CVs as ChromeOS developer.
Twelve percent?? That is scary.
> decides if it's important enough to release as a 15.4.1 (which they probably won't, which means I'm stuck finding a workaround) - or if it comes out in iOS 16, then a good chunk of our users will never get the fix

I know people like to complain about Safari, but:

1. It’s absolutely common to ask developers for a minimal repro case in a bug report.

2. There are four major Safari releases under 15.x.

3. Apple OS upgrades, especially iOS, are as close to total as one could imagine. The overlap between people who buy iPhones and people who go out of their way to turn off OS upgrades is really small.

I want Apple to stop tying (some) Safari releases to OS upgrades, but this honestly feels like you’re tired and it’s been a long day, and you could use a break. Take the night off. Safari will still be imperfect but improving tomorrow, even if it’s not at the pace we’d prefer.

Your letting experience is missing one key factor; you’re not the customer to the letting agency. The building owner is the customer, not you. As long as the apartment gets rented out and maintenance gets done well enough, the owner doesn’t really care if you have a bad experience. And the letting agency doesn’t have to care about you either, since their treatment of you has no effect on their bottom line.

The fact that they don’t feel ashamed of mistreating a non-customer is however cultural.

USD has a variety of “thing X’s” to drive demand as well as being a destination when things seem uncertain, driving further demand.

When people move their money out of monetary unions, there are only a few places and assets to purchase in large amounts. Everything has already been stretched to insane valuations, so USD is it.

I think your pragmatic look is refreshing, but too willing to reject a notion just because its popular, you’re right on the money just incorporate the demand drivers instead of excluding them.

I have had an openhab install running in a rpi without any issues for several years now. Everything in the home is MQTT-based (Tasmota firmware on the switches) and it sends messages to the broker to control stuff. The local reliability is rock solid and cannot be faulted.

However the initial config is quite a learning curve though, and is pretty user-hostile IMHO (they appear to have basically just put a web UI on their java inheritance tree with zero thought given to making it understandable, at least in the 2.x version), and the documentation is usually wrong/out-of-date so it is a challenge. Some stuff could not be configured in the Web UI and needs to be done in the CLI which is fine (if frustrating) but the docs for the CLI didn't exist or were wrong (at least when I was setting it up). Perhaps their newest version is better - I don't know. I have not upgraded for fear if having to configure everything again.

The Google/Alexa integration however is free and works, but has occasional outages (perhaps 5 or 6 times a year, sometimes several days at once). I have a local web server that runs a tiny UI to manually turn things on and off (sends MQTT to the switches/bulbs etc) that I have to rely on more frequently than I'd like.

I chose openhab over homeassistant because the Google/Alexa integration is (was?) $5/month for homeassistant. I wanted to be able to shout out loud to turn things on and off and openhab does that well with its integration (apart from the mentioned outages)
I guess the RPi Zero W would suit your needs a lot better, and it seems to be in stock in some shops. The Pico doesn't run Linux so cron jobs aren't possible.
I understand that you have language barrier and can't, for example, watch Ukrainian TV. Have you ever seen President Poroshenko bragging on national TV about how he will make Donetsk children hide in basement?
Have you ever seen Arestovich, current aide to President Zelensky, two years ago, saying on national TV that large scale war with Russia is only possible way for Ukraine?
Have you ever seen Ukrainian pupils chanting Moscalaku na gilyaku? Don't take my words for granted, translate this words yourself.
I suggest you'll Google that videos before saying Ukrainian government is peaceful next time
Isn't this reinventing the wheel somehow? Linux distros have been using tar.gz over HTTP (not S!) and relying on GPG for years.
To those who think that this is a joke: Beer leading to civilization is actually an idea that is accepted in the field. Beer might not be the only factor, but it is almost certainly a contributing factor.

Consider that beer is safer to drink than the sources of water that were available, and the pleasing intoxicating effects. Possibly also the alcohol addiction to an extent.

> The web is built on the foundation I can use any browser.

This foundation is provided by browsers and is also broken by browsers. If safari's foundation is broken then safari is the one not fulfilling that fundamental promise, not the websites now broken. So yes, don't use a browser if it doesn't work.

> The opportunity cost of the down payment making you unable to early exercise some startup equity could on the other hand leave you pretty full of regret.

Startup equity of the kind that produces fuck you-money returns shouldn't cost that much to early exercise since it's usually early stage, that's kind of the whole point of early exercise and filing the 83b before the imaginary value goes up in subsequent funding rounds.

When it's late stage enough for exercising to cost a pile of money, people usually don't bother with exercising and simply wait for a liquidity event to occur, assuming accelerated vesting will accompany it, and pay the exercise cost and taxes directly from the shares AIUI.

But I suppose it's nice to be able to exercise and leave if you wanted to before a liquidity event, since the options tend to expire in what... 90 days? Preserving that option with a pile of cash on hand is useful, handcuffs are annoying regardless of their color.
There is definitely something wrong with CPI. I'm not sure what it is because on paper it seems like a reasonable measure, but anecdotally my expenses are up more like 17% vs CPI's 7%. My "personal inflation" regularly beats out CPI (although usually not by such a high margin. Housing, fuel, and food have been the biggest increases for me. I wonder if all the consumer goods are somehow over represented.

Giving a confidence level is different from using weasel words. Weasel words make statements weaker or even vacuous. Confidence levels make statements more precise. Here's an example:

statement: Alice stole the briefcase

+weasel_wording: I think it's possible Alice could have stolen the briefcase

+confidence_level: I'd bet 5:1 that Alice stole the briefcase

Also note that I didn't say I wanted Dan to write less confidently. I wanted him to convey more varied confidence.

Haha, I like it. I have a weird pattern in my life where I push things to an extreme and then back off some distance from it. It doesn't work so well in life-threatening situations (crashing my car cost me months of my life) but for the rest of life it teaches me where the limit is.

Though I do have to say:

In the last years I came to the realization that - contrary to public opinion - these design pattern, SOLID principles and other concepts are transferable far beyond OOP. Not only to functional programming but also architecture and e.g. organization structure. Adapter, Strategy, Composition, ... Single responsibility, ...

It's not that the dollar would have long-term instability, it's that the act of going from reserve currency to non-reserve currency would see people in other countries dumping dollars for whatever the new thing is. There would be a short period of hyperinflation in the US.

>or until Apple acknowledges a bug report

a side question, how do you make a bug report on Safari? I've found FF and Chrome easy enough, but when I went to look for making one on Safari about a year ago I decided screw it, it seemed hard to find where to start (by googling at any rate)
That's impressive, in that it handles white walls well. Most of the algorithms for that sort of thing have trouble registering big uniform surfaces. That's why many tracking algorithms want objects with lots of texture detail. Some add texture by projecting a noise pattern on the surface being tracked. That's sometimes called "unstructured light", the opposite being projecting a structured pattern such as a grid. The first generation Kinect did that.

Of course, this network may do well on this because it's trained on indoor scenes with walls of uniform height and width. Uniform implies flat is likely to emerge as an assumption. You get to see the wall/floor joints and the wall/wall joints, so you have some references.

Remember the Tesla that hit the big white semitrailer because the algorithm couldn't measure depth to a uniform surface? This is a hard problem in unstructured situations.

Absolutely. Agree there's a lot of variability. Only pointing out that in species where only males or only females croon, it may be unlikely there is broadspectrum communication happening.
> Twitter is a mid sized tech company though, with a mere 5,500 employees.

I guess that depends on the definition of mid sized company. I don't know if there is a fundamentally different/better definition, but Gartner defines a mid sized company to have up to 999 employees and $1 billion of annual revenue [1]. Twitter has way more employees and revenue than that.

It does! It's a bit trickier than just getting it from the MS Store, because that's not a thing in Windows 10 LTSC, but you can install some dependencies and get Terminal from GitHub[1]. I just set it up a couple days ago on an LTSC virtual machine, and it works just fine.

I implemented a policy of "loom video, for all PR", at my last company.

Every video should include: an explanation of the problem, a walkthrough of the patch, a recording of the result.

PRs never sat long, because the willpower it took to understand the problem, the solution, and how to replicate/test manually (if you feel that necessary) was drastically reduced.

It shifts the burden of extra work to the requestor, who has motivation to get things merged.

Additionally, git blame became infinitely more useful.
Alphabet wholly owns Google, it's subsidiary. Yum is no longer a subsidiary of PepsiCo as of 25 years ago. PepsiCo divested their entire stake. They just have a lifelong contract to supply the restaurants with beverages. Yum operates independently and according to it's shareholders, doing what's best for its own business even if it comes at the expense of PepsiCo. They have no other relation for almost 3 decades.
> - "I decided to leave the XIP cache to do its thing, and select a few small areas of hot code or data to promote to RAM manually"[1]: I understood this as you leaving the XIP cache activated. But this seems at odds with "16K of flash XIP cache, that we’ve talked about, but decided not to use."[also 1], which I'm interpreting as "decided not to make use of the XIP cache (i.e. turn it off)" (maybe I'm misreading).

The way I'm reading it, you can disable the XIP cache and use that 16KB of RAM for anything else you want. But the author "decided not to use" it for something else, that is, the 16KB are still being used as cache.
Historically, food shortages are one of the surest routes to rebellion. Perhaps the people leading the rebellions aren't starving, but starvation is a real motivation to enlist.

That said, it seems unlikely that the sanctions will lead to starvation; the possibility of a Russian revolt or coup seems insane. (At least until it happens, and then it will be obvious.)
I glanced at the linked issue and I see demands for disregarding the standard to accommodate a non-standard API. Is that what you’re asking for? Or are you on the side of implementing the living standard as it evolves? If there’s another position I’m missing feel free to fill in the blank.
Apple have already intentionally broken that promise by refusing to implement parts of the HTML standard.

Mmh, not sure. I received a prescription for a drug from my doctor, now I use (or 'take') that drug/medicine once a day.

It's common for those wordings to be used because often it literally is a handing over of drugs you're talking about - with sickness you're more likely to talk about the moment a medical person said to start using a drug than to tell people about the actual use because it's usually more interesting.
> The story was reported in China but is tricky to find. Sina (Chinese language), rough translation.

The original Chinese title of Sina report:

> 中国承诺为乌克兰提供核保护伞？假！

Translation:

> China pledges nuclear umbrella for Ukraine? It's false!

And in later paragraphs the Sina report distinguishes "security assurance" from "nuclear umbrella" by explaining the concepts of positive and negative security assurances and citing multiple documents including UNSC resolution 255.

So it is reported by Chinese media like an ordinary statement on non-nuclear-weapon countries according to UN resolutions.
