> Let the owner will the value of the shares to whomever they want, but let the board decide where the voting power goes.

That is terrible idea on so many levels it’s difficult to address them all. What is the value of the shares with no voting rights? And given your plan, I assume most boards would award the shares to themselves.
As a chronically fat-fingered typist working in English, all those vowels next to each other gives me the willies - far too easy to get the wrong one and for autocorrect to not spot the error. The adjacency of U, I and O on qwerty gives me enough aggro in this regard already.
Please, stop this nonsense. It is not as if the NULL/zero value was introduced after some code was written. This is a human written logic error, programmer(s) write logic and that logic will sometimes have bugs. This is someone getting paid to state an obvious fact and then throw philosophical phrases around in an attempt to sound like they are doing something. This is pure time wasted nonsense.
Thanks for sharing, looks interesting. However it is an extension to the "code flow". My main point was that lots of people do not use the code flow but rather stick with the "implicit flow" which directly hands out access tokens to the browser. If you opt for the "code flow", you need some sort of auth backend in your stack, that proxies all calls to services (since the token is only available in the BE).

Magazines’ Advice to Parents Has Changed over a Century
I switched to the Kinesis Advantage 2 about 9 months ago (https://geekmonkey.org/learning-to-type-dvorak/) and couldn't be happier. It takes quite a while to rewire the brain (at least it did for me) but I feel a lot more confident and a tad bit faster than I was before I switched.
Where are you getting all that CaO and why isn't it used by the construction industry instead of burning CaCO2 to get CaO? I am asking this because I might have to build a lime kiln and I would rather avoid that hassle if it is possible.
If the people doing the rituals also don’t understand the causal mechanism, then it becomes fair to call it “superstition”.

And that this isn’t limited to just “them” for any value of “them” who do things.

The rest is a bunch of examples of why, even when an effect exists.
People are always quick to parrot this old thing, but I think it's propaganda. Apple seeds will absolutely produce edible fruit. Most is fine for eating, and if it's too sour, it'll make fine sauce or cider. Crab apples are a different species from domesticated apples. The apples we eat come from Asia originally, where crab apples are worldwide. Different parents.

I live in an old farming community and there are hundreds of feral apples around here. I've tasted dozens of them and have yet to find one that was not edible or even delicious.

Modern apples (most fruit really) are selected for transport and keeping. Not flavour or edibility.
> Been there, done that. 10+ different jobs in a span of 15 years.

I don't mean any offence, but you haven't really then have you - that's quite a different situation, your average tenure is less than 1.5y, more than tenfold less than OP's.

I imagine (haven't done it myself) it's psychologically quite different to leave somewhere you're so established, and start somewhere new when it's so long since you've done that. You're used to it. I'm not saying it doesn't have challenges, but I think they're at least different, and anyway you're used to embracing them.
For me also: community. I love the F1 community discussing the off-track banter, the drama, the memes, that has grown immensely since Drive to Survive. Here's a shout-out to www.reddit.com/r/formula1! It has maybe become my favorite subreddit on that site. Professionally moderated with semi-regular appearances of drivers or team representatives for Q&A's as well. Every practice session, qualification, race also gets a live thread so that if you're Forever Alone in this interest, there are friendly people with reactions and jokes over there in those live chats! :)
I agree that I would love a discussion by OP acknowledging previous efforts and comparing approaches.

Having multiple minds working at the same problem is great, but not engaging with prior art diminishes the value of their own work IMO.
Right, you touch on basically the same points as I:

If you believe what you see in Drive To Survive then you think the above (which is a big problem with the series). In reality it’s not true. Mercedes are successful because they had a huge head start on the new hybrid engine regs and hired one of the most talented drivers in history. Management is important but “we win and lose as a team” is marketing. The Hamilton/Rosberg era illustrated a lot of cracks in that marketing.
Isn't the idea to pump the captured co2 underground, where the proper reactions take place to turn this more or less into rock ? I'm not sure anyone was suggesting to actually store the co2 long term as a gas or liquid
Given that Apple has finally conceded that a laptop thicker than an iPad is acceptable (M1 Pro/Max models), we may see the Ultra chip in a new flagship Macbook Pro soon. It won't be cranked all the way up like it is in the Mac Studio obviously, but it's definitely possible to put one (or the inevitable M2 version) in a large laptop.

I apologise. I interpreted what you said as evidence for how fast the M1 is.

Agreed. I am only now looking a desktop replacement for my 2011 first-gen i7, and the only reason is because I recently started doing Java and C# development on my personal machines, and the IDEs + compilation times are terrible.

Also, trying to run VS under Linux on this machine is a total waste of time. If it weren't for the Java and C# requirement I wouldn't even bother.

Also, what do you mean by "viable"? Even if an apple is too tart for fresh eating, it will often make a great pie, sauce, or cider apple.

The apple varieties we're all familiar with are selected for transport and keeping. A commercial selection. Not flavour or sugar.
I’m not saying public property is sacred. I’m not saying private property is sacred either. But security of private property is a big deal and shouldn’t be messed with for reasons that are too incoherent to be called an argument. Far better to increase the corporate tax rate than to just take people’s stuff. We can adjust the tax rate up and down. The government messing with property rights is a lot more durable. You can destroy a lot of trust very quickly and it takes a long time to build it up again.
The simple existence of "Not an object" value is fine. The abstraction built over the raw value should be good enough that it will confront you when you attempt to use it.

The next level is constructing types in a way that you can avoid such low level details of whether the pointer is valid.

In other words, encode the state in the type instead of a value that you need to test against every time you want to use it.
Interesting! Do you have further reading I can look into?

Do you know why the Drive To Survive authors would slant things this way?
This is something people have thought about because it's an obvious inconvenience to anyone trying out, say, Dvorak.

Yes, as the evidence comes in, it seems probable that the mainstream media got Invermectin right. They've gotten other things wrong.

Whether they ultimately turn out to be right or wrong about any particular topic, the problem occurs much earlier: they choose their position before conclusive evidence is available, often, as in this case, based mostly on politics, then skew their coverage to fit.

I'd prefer to hear the arguments and evidence from an impartial source, not a political position.
> The branch will NOT be a history of how it was actually programmed.

I'm not sure how to reconcile it with the idea of having a branch for each feature. In my head, developing a feature on a branch creates a history of how the feature was programmed. Could you elaborate on that?

By default it shows the commit message doesn't it? At least I'm not aware I've done anything for e.g. https://github.com/OJFord/terraform-provider-wireguard/actio...

The annoyance I'm describing is that when the commit message is 'merge branch master' (and especially if, as the label next to it shows, it is the master branch) this is crap and useless, and hiding the 'real' commits behind it that the committer had locally while behind the remote. If they had `git pull --rebase`d (or `git pull` with the config option set) the commit message would be that of the latest 'real' one.

Work: interesting work, or at least work that feels useful. Feeling that one’s work is meaningful and appreciated. Plan a little more and feature creep less.

Environment: peace and quiet. Minimize the noise and interruptions, which usually means walls and doors. Keep the meetings down, only those which convey information that can’t be done electronically (and asychronously) or involve the necessary decision-makers. Tailor “desk” to personality or mission requirements. Accept that real estate is a sunk cost.

> I've noticed that using a traditional, non split keyboard, is more painful, because it requires me to twist my wrists sideways

I have never used a split (which almost always is an ortholinear and not requires any twist) but my experience tells me than I am twisting not a wrist but only one finger, while 9 others just resting on a home row. I do not understand how it is possible to touchtype while you are twisting your wrists because if your index fingers lose the home row - you have to look at kbd to find it again.

BTW I have noticed that touchtyping on laptop may be harder than on dedicated kbd because comfortable position of display may require an uncomfortable position of wrists and touchpad (if enabled) does even bigger mess.
Formula 1 is one of the worst offenders of Sportswashing, the practice of dictators and human rights abusers to use their money to buy good will in the sports world.

Riffing off the first few months being the most difficult: you may not even know how you can best contribute for the first 3 months. That’s ok, it’ll come to you.

Also - maybe find where the async conversations are happening (eg Slack) and reading the archives
What about latency?

If you are doing it in a time-symmetric way you are going to hold at least a frame in the buffer. If it is not time symmetric then there is still some latency that comes out of using the current frame and prior frames but nut future frames.

I might be unusual but I am highly sensitive to display latency. I can’t stand playing single player games on my Xbox unless the TV is in game mode and I couldn’t stand playing League of Legends on my laptop’s screen because it was a frame slow.
Nah, they say max 15 kw continuous, but peak 60-something. At highway cruising on flats my Volt averages around 10-15kw. It's only during acceleration that it goes significantly above that (and the Volt can push 300lb/ft of torque, so)

Is there something similar to F1 but with autonomous cars ?

Just a race between autonomous cars, pitting teams of engineers directly against each other instead of via the human pilot.

I guessed that would involve some pretty different design of the cars, since without the human much of the current designs around safety wouldn't apply. Cars could go faster, slow less, take more risky trajectories.

There's RobotWars, but these always seem (currently) like a weird RC toys competitions.
i did not refer to plain security measures. all security measures you listed can be and, in fact, are well hidden under the hood, so the end user does not have to worry about them.

i was more about the insane consequences of today's web's abilities: it wants to do anything and everything with user's computer, it's basically an independent OS.
there is no Line Of Death anymore, no clear boundary what user can trust as he trust the OS vendor and locally installed and audited software vendors, and on the other side, trust as an unknown 3rd party on the web.

see "paypal.com" vs "paypaI.com", unicode look-alike chars, public suffix list, etc type of tricks; domain names were invented to be consumable by end users, but as they are sold and used, it's not the case anymore. so users nowadays should not be pressured to watch domain names with bleeding eyes. see "url bar padlock" issue; several survey demonstrated that users do not understand and do not care how the padlock feels.

users can not confidently Ctrl-C anything on any website anymore. using "clever" JS APIs web devs mine bitcoin by visitor's CPU, DDoS other online resource by visitor, store CSAM on visitor's computer, trigger epilepsy in visitors.

then in top of all these, engineers want to solve complexity problems by putting more complexity in it (like solving civilaztional problem with more technology). some suggest to build in an AI which watches if something appears on the screen which looks like a window but is not?! come on! why not just don't let untrusted code do anything on your screen and computer?

I understand client-side scriptng is made very powerful and enables many wonders for the entertaining of the masses.
It may be a maintainable path to provide a general-purpose language to the "App Web", where users can run programms with on-click installation (ie. loading a web app on a web site in the web browser). in this case browser vendors and users should prepare for the possible abuses what the general purpose in-browser computing environment enables.

but on the other hand, many users with reasonable usecases expect there should be a "Docu Web" just as the WWW was born to be (with neccessary improvements and modernizations of course - i don't advocate for "Mosaic 1.0 experience") with no accidental transition to the "App Web". this other web, the "Docu Web", should be free of any complexity which may lead to become "App Web" again: i imagine a library/bookstore/newspaper store/journal/shared notes/etc network but online.

so that you don't need to worry that: a jumpscare pops out of a book when turn to page 123; or other library visitors inserts pages in the book you read; or the last week newspaper shows you different articles than to your neighbour; or someone read your mails because you watched his audiovisual report before; or the librarian pushes certain authors and suppresses others based on bribe.
sorry for the seemingly absourd analogies, but there were (and are) times when these were possible on the "All-in Web" due to inconsiderate government and adaptation of standards.
That's true for d8 used in X-Wing. The report linked from the hackaday article links to a report from awesomedice.com that tested d20s:

https://www.awesomedice.com/blogs/news/d20-dice-randomness-t...

They _manually_ tested Chessex and Gamescience dice by rolling them thousands of time. They found both brands' dice to be off. Gamescience dice had a big dip on the number 14 face, which is the face that has the bit of flash where the die is cut off the sprue by hand.

I suspect it's just easier to make a fair d8 than a fair d20.

That probably goes for other die sizes also. I was looking for a d14, d16 and d18 and while I found the first two from Gamescience, I could find a d18 only from one brand, other than Gamescience, so I'm guessing that Gamescience decided they simply couldn't make a fair d18 work. I mean, why skip d18 when you have d14, d16 and d20?
>> Please correct me if I am wrong and F1 is now dynamic with lot of overtaking since I haven't seen one GP in last 10-15 years.

I would say that you are wrong, but with caveats.
Firstly, it's dependent on the track. some tracks provide more opportunities to overtake than others. Monaco is one extreme (where overtaking is basically impossible) - on the other end of the scale is Bahrain where overtaking is "easy".

Actually having all cars the same would lead to less overtaking though - because it's not enough to "be a bit faster" than the car in front, you have to be close enough, at the right time, and have enough of a performance advantage to make the overtake in the time available. DRS makes a big difference to this giving an advantage to a trailing car which makes overtaking "easier". But you still need the track to play ball.

Like all sports, F1 goes through periods of boring races, and typically there are then rule tweaks to try and tighten up racing. This year there are all new cars, designed (hopefully) to make following easier and hence overtaking easier.

Of course making overtaking easier is perhaps not the best goal - close racing happens when a faster car is behind a slower car, and overtaking is hard. The defense of the slower car, and the effort required to maintain that position can be enthralling. Letting the faster car pass easily, and disappear into the distance may not actually lead to better racing.
