It’s not OP I’m objecting to, so much as the posts that have tried to normalize those feelings and shift blame onto society. Not trusting women is not normal, but feelings are feelings and we’re not totally in control. But telling people that they should have these misogynist feelings — justifying them — is just bad. So honestly you can take your comment about “cartoonish ideology” and go to Hell.

In many organizations the on-call is among a wider circle of people to make sure devs in small teams aren't on-call for their team's service every other week.
Tuition-paying and academic integrity are inherently at odds with one another. If every student has earned their place via scholarship, you can kick them out freely to reallocate the scholarship pool toward students who haven't gotten caught cheating. For students paying their own way, the thought they'd get expelled for cheating may dis-incentivize them from applying even if they have no concrete plans to cheat.
Meanwhile some cities introduce stricter rules for ads in public places. The billboards and logos are either taken down or have to stick to a toned down color palette and cannot exceed certain dimensions. I’m a big fan of this trend. Maybe it will expand and maybe we’ll see fewer ads in public spaces everywhere.

Famous and deceptive. It is a narrow angle shot, taken straight down the axis of very specific strip. Take an off axis, wide angle shot, and billboards disappear. I don't remember the details but photographic tricks like that played a large role in a trial opposing advertisers to people who considered billboard an eyesore. The former used wide angle shots while the latter used telephoto.

We saw a lot of tricks like that related to covid and social distancing. Heavily zoomed pictures of "crowded" beaches, streets, etc... where in reality, it is far less dense than the photo makes it look like.

But that logic, anything society accepts is an answer. You could just as easily say that society accepting high crime rates is an answer.

You're right that policies often reflect public opinion, but when we're debating policy ideally the conversation would go deeper than that. Public discussions about policy in the open, on forums, etc, is a big part of how public opinion gets formed, and those discussions should probably dig into underlying goals and identify the costs and benefits of different approaches beyond just checking what the current majority preference is. Things can get a little circular when being popular is the justification for why something is popular.

The scientists know this. Paleoclimatology is one big part of climatology. But the outcome is the opposite - you should be more scared, since it shows that climate can change massively. That affects things like agriculture or sea level. What would you assume the sea level was, when those plants were alive?

For example, with very quick search:

"In general, world oceans were about 100 to 200 metres (330 to 660 feet) higher in the Early Cretaceous and roughly 200 to 250 metres (660 to 820 feet) higher in the Late Cretaceous than at present."

My wife is a nurse who pivoted into pharma, and when our daughter was diagnosed with a heart tumor, the only thing that ultimately resulted in us finding the right case was my wife's experience and ability to 1) ask the right questions, and 2) conduct her own scientific literature search & meta analyses. I kept thinking throughout that, if we weren't able to do this, our daughter would probably die ... and how many millions of patients receive subpar care because they don't have the skills or knowledge to keep care providers (and insurers) honest.

My iCloud account isn't new. It's many years old. The device I have is old but only 3 months old. I bought it from someone else and it's still under warranty so maybe that's why.

That's a fair point. I do notice Apple going in the wrong direction though. Even the "search" tab in the App Store now shows ads for random apps (before doing a search). That's fairly odd.
And most people can tell what to search for find specific emails; if that doesn’t prove it….
>Right patient, right medication, right dose, right route, right time

Can't you achieve all of those by having someone else create the bag and then label it for the patient. The "right medication" is the one they're receiving as part of the study.

how do you build all the underlying infra?
It's substantial friction. You pay for a search engine, another search engine, a documentation site, YouTube, Hacker News, 50 different newspapers...

What I want is some fixed revenue-sharing service a la YouTube Premium but for the entire Internet. Pay $XX/month, and get access to a zillion websites, with each one receiving revenue proportional to how much you use it.

Except the websites would probably game that by loading a zillion empty iframes or something. Damn.
I get it, trying to make on-call not sound so bad. Fair enough.

But then she goes into the "example week" including a weekend page. It seems like there's not much going on, not many pages, not much out of regular hours. And then this prime example of why you do not want to have engineers on-call:

At 5 a.m., I got paged. I jumped out of bed and ran over to my computer.
The page self-resolved at 5:01 a.m.

She puts a smiley but this can really drive one mad. Second time this happens (and let's face it, it happens, even if you tweak and adjust those settings over and over) I'm out of there.

I get it, all the talk about "you will build better services because otherwise you will be paged". In the end I think it's just about saving money for dedicated 24/7 network operations if that is what your business requires. If it doesn't have customers 24/7, then don't set up any pagers and support staff, if it does, pay for it!

I've been on call in a SaaS environment before. In my entire time (counted in years) doing that I have had about the same amount of pages in total (!) as are contained in her example week. I carried my laptop and the phone to tether dutifully but I have never been paged by the 24/7 support staff for something like the 5:01 self-resolving alert.
Are there any comparisons of where content blockers fail and ublock origin is better for a casual user?
An alternative I've used is k-medoids:

This is especially useful in cases where the distance between points is given by a matrix, and cannot be derived from the points themselves. For example, the drive time between locations on a road network.
Is it? It's a nudge at best, which you can probably taxonomize as "advertising" but its for a thing you already have and users genuinely might not have noticed.

Now, they had a different notification in the past for MobileMe that was truly an ad because you didn't have to be an existing customer for an upsell nor did it come with the OS by default (this was after iTools got rebranded by Apple), and it just wanted you to go to their website to look at the product and maybe buy it, download it and install it. (this was mostly the pre-iCloud-Drive backup solution that was itself a holdover from iTools)

I think technically anything that points you to a place where money could be made is an advertisement, and even advertising mDNS devices on a local network is doing the "hey you, there is a thing over here"-thing. But there is a big difference between creating a universal spot in software to load arbitrary advertisements for new products vs. in-product purchase options (which obviously tend to lean more into the upsell category of ads than the nudge for mindshare category of ads).

The whole 'try safari' thing is one I do actually see on new accounts, and sometimes on first startup with browsers, but IIRC once dismissed they don't come back again. Heck, it even is less persistent than the post-install highlights notification you got from major OS upgrades.

Perhaps the Browser-notification is best compared with Microsoft's OneDrive notification in the Security settings where they suggest that using a free OneDrive account is the "One True Way" to stop ransomware.

This is tangental to the topic, but we must create a notion of Obligation in society to both actively teach and learn from those who have gone before us.
I think that's a valid question. Objectively, no, those features are not necessarily worth the literal dollar value the price segmentation is commanding.

But, there are some other points to consider:

- It seems like most people in the USA who buy mid to high-end phones finance their phones from carriers, and pay 0% interest for it. So, what the consumer is really considering is "is the Pro model worth $5-8/month more to me?" or "Would I pay $200 extra over 2-3 years?" and I think that's an easier justification for many people.

- Carriers offer a number of financial incentives and discounts in exchange for loyalty (there aren't any contracts anymore, but there are "bill credits" that function the same way).

- You did use $15/hour as an example, which around the median US salary, but Pro models are not intended to be the top selling model for the median earner in the US. They're marketed at, I would guess, the top 20% of earners, which lines up with the Pro/Pro Max models only making up 20% of iPhone sales in 2020 [1]. That would mean that Apple would expect individuals buying the iPhone Pro models to make about $75,000/year or greater. About 10% of the population makes a 6-figure salary. [2]

- Smartphones are the primary communication and computing device for many if not most people. I think that there are many people who see the smartphone as the most valuable possession they own.

Also can't you call your bank and request new access? They need to verify you, but that should be possible.
Last question. How did they wipe your phone?

In contrast with these limited platforms:

SNES Doom - 128KB RAM, I think a 2MByte ROM, CPU is 65816 at 3Mhz + SuperFX RISC CPU at 21Mhz, which also had its own 64KB of RAM.

PSX Doom - 2MB RAM + 1KB fast scratchpad, able to load from a standard 650MB CD, CPU is a MIPS R3051 at 33Mhz + the PSX accelerated graphics, not used except to draw strips

So doing this in a device that has not too much more RAM than the SNES and also has to livestream the VGA signal Atari 2600 style is exceedingly impressive. It's a dual CPU unit but basically having to spend a core manually bit banging the VGA signal like that is what fascinated me the most.

You're making generalizations based on proxy information, which is basically the same thing that a test does you're just using a different set of information to key off of.

Not that there isn't some signal in the pile of noise that you're picking through but a willingness to circumvent academic requirements isn't exactly a strong indicator of performance in the field. Competent professionals fudge requirements they consider to be irrelevant all the time (inb4 no true Scotsman).

There is a hidden cost to this though. Running your own email server, or even having a lesser-known company manage your email server, can cause your emails to be sent to spam without any action on your part. You aren't notified when your email goes to a spam folder, so you always have to worry that the recipient of your emails didn't receive the email, even if you only ever send legitimate emails. If you stay on top of all the best-practices for running your own mail server, your hidden cost is the mind-share that that takes.
