> giving it's users bank accounts numbers based in a different country to where they actually live

This is actually not meaningfully different: the 2 countries in question are both EU countries, and as long as you're an EU resident, you can register for a bank account in another country without problems (I know because I've done it with another provider... With a real bank account, btw which provides me the 100000€ guarantee in case that they'd go bust)

Of course, that's not saying that things are always perfectly smooth (I know that some Italian banks have issues to set up standing orders to other EU bank accounts, and the Italian bureaucracy itself expect you to declare and pay taxes just for the privilege of having a bank account elsewhere in the EU)
We used to share designers between teams at a company I worked for. It worked nicely, but the approach has its drawbacks as well, in that the person designing an extension to something might miss a lot of context that the previous person did. Especially if you constantly switch people around, you run into this.

Regardless, that doesn't address the plight of the junior. The junior shouldn't be put alone in a team and expected to effectively manage everything in that beach-ball graph, let alone be expected to come up with proper designs by themselves. That's a fault of the person putting the junior there, not a fault in the design of the whole team.
> started buying the horse version of the drug

FYI there is no horse version of drugs. It would be a logistics and production nightmare to produce two kind of medicine like that.

If a medicine has a chemical compound (like for example Amoxicillin) then it is good for both your fish and for you generally speaking.
I think leaving out the charger would have been a lot less controversial and appeared much less like a cash grab if they hadn't at the same time switched from USB-A to USB-C, requiring everyone to get a new charger.

My experience with customizing my Ultimate Hacking Keyboard has taught me something: I can't actually diverge too much from a "normal" keyboard layout, because in addition to a USB keyboard at a desk, I also use the built-in keyboards on my personal laptop (Framework) and my work laptop (MBP). It's just not worth it for me to build muscle memory that works for only one of the three keyboards I use on a regular basis. So I can't, for example, get used to the tab/window switching shortcuts of the UHK's default Mod layer[1], because as soon as I switch to another keyboard I have to go back to Alt+Tab etc. In theory I could probably figure out some way to implement something like a Mod layer for every keyboard I use regularly, but I don't feel like that's worth the effort. On the other hand, mapping Caps Lock to Escape is something I can do easily on every keyboard I own, and has been a worthwhile adjustment. It's needed on the UHK because by default Escape is on the Mod layer, and I want it as a regular key, but once I did it there I liked it enough to do it everywhere.

All that said, I do like the UHK a lot. I bought it mainly for the ergonomics of a split, adjustable angle keyboard, and it's great for that. And the silent brown key switches I chose are great for typing during calls.

"You can't fault the good idea"

Ha, reminds me of this exchange from Doctor Stangelove about how their implementation of thermonuclear war went a bit wrong:

General "Buck" Turgidson : Ahem... The Duty Officer asked General Ripper to confirm the fact that he had issued the go code, and he said, uh, "Yes gentlemen, they are on their way in, and no one can bring them back. For the sake of our country, and our way of life, I suggest you get the rest of SAC in after them. Otherwise, we will be totally destroyed by Red retaliation. Uh, my boys will give you the best kind of start, 1400 megatons worth, and you sure as hell won't stop them now, uhuh. Uh, so let's get going, there's no other choice. God willing, we will prevail, in peace and freedom from fear, and in true health, through the purity and essence of our natural... fluids. God bless you all" and he hung up.

[beat]

General "Buck" Turgidson : Uh, we're, still trying to figure out the meaning of that last phrase, sir.

President Merkin Muffley : There's nothing to figure out, General Turgidson. This man is obviously a psychotic.

General "Buck" Turgidson : We-he-ell, uh, I'd like to hold off judgement on a thing like that, sir, until all the facts are in.

President Merkin Muffley : General Turgidson! When you instituted the human reliability tests, you assured me there was no possibility of such a thing ever occurring!

General "Buck" Turgidson : Well, I, uh, don't think it's quite fair to condemn a whole program because of a single slip-up, sir.
Issue is amplified by every additional key needed for the shortcut. Some shortcuts that require 3 keys on US keyboard, may require 4 on non-US and some are downright impossible, because keys cancel each other.

For example I can't do Ctrl + ] because I need AltGr to produce ] and that won't work with Ctrl. Also I cant do Ctrl + ` because ` is dead key for me (it appears only after I type space or any other character).
If he addressed the question, I missed it. (Yes, I read the whole article.)

I get that thinking medium and long term, and ignoring the possibility of a six month recession, is sound advice. However, given the state of the world (for instance, with Russia bringing up nuclear weapons) there are perfectly reasonable people thinking it would be prudent to expect a not-routine financial hit.

So it is at the least a very misleading headline.
Those don't come with python though, so the standard library wouldn't have any similar functionality. And both of the suggestions have a direct dependency on urllib.

Edit: So who maintains urllib, a dependency for the "better" libraries, if you push it out of python core?

Isn't Ivermectin most effective at the onset of symptoms [0] ? From the article "They looked at data from all patients; then analyzed data from patients who received ivermectin or a placebo 24 hours before they were hospitalized" This sounds like Ivermectin was given when symptoms where so severe, hospitalization was required. This could well be too late for Ivermectin to be effective.

From a quick read-over, I don't sense that either the grant programme or Nature bothered digging much deeper than the photo. Even really basic stuff, like finding out how sexist & racist the women & minorities on campus think the place is.

Obvious Lesson: #1 Must-Do for universities is to have a first-rate troop of women & minority actors on hand, whenever "unfortunate" photos might be taken, to present shallow decision-makers with the "right" image.

TL;DR: (1) Maintain a good credit score, (2) Maintain an emergency fund enough for X months, (3) Invest some of your extra money.
That's not true. If you had an emergency appendix surgery in the middle of the nowhere and there was only one surgeon, would you question how many hospitals he worked at before? If you are good at your job and can prove it, then it doesn't matter. We, tech people, have it really easy compared to other jobs.

If anything, it's the opposite. I have more career opportunities than ever:

1. You learn new skills -> you become more employable

2. You leave on good terms -> most of your previous companies are waiting for you with open arms (more opportunities, safety net, upper hand in negotiating salary)

3. You discover yourself -> what you want, what are you good at and where can you go next.

I would take it with a grain of salt. Contracting and living in a big city is very different to small towns and/or permanent roles.
Same. Because the layout is standard it's very easy to get going. An accessory that someone suggested to me that has worked out fantastically has been using yoga blocks to further tent the keyboards to an even better position and to hold them apart.

We spent years with quad core i7 processors being the norm, with higher core count processors being locked to Intels HEDT platform. When Ryzen came out all of a sudden the i7 8700k was able to be a 6 core processor instead of a 4 core. Then it wasn’t until Alder lake released in November of last year that we finally got desktop processors that weren’t on 14nm+++ (or however many + it was at). That’s not including the fact that you could overclock all the initial Ryzen processors, while Intel locked you to specials skus of CPU and motherboard
Instead of creating a new tool to convert MDN's content into HTML, it would probably be easier to modify the official tool, Yari, in order to produce web page with more compatible (and faster) CSS & JS.
https://github.com/mdn/yari

But I don't think it would be useful unless MDN merges in the changes. My daily web browser struggles with the new MDN rendering unless JS is disabled. So I've lost a few features since the "design change", notably I cannot run the examples. Would I use a cloned site that's faster and where CSS&JS are more compatible? I would loose the external search I'm used to (DuckDuckGo !mdn), so using the clone would require a few changes on my side...
> This leaves us with the final problem: why can't people acknowledge that different people have different goals, and that those people's goals are just as legitimate as their own? Why are other people's goals threatening?

Because swaths of code written in a language where it's easier to make mistakes affects all parties and entrenches said language.

Imagine a book on programming an unreadable language like Befunge was given out to low income schools across the world, those people ended up organizing, and by sheer number and force cranked out software the industry depended upon.

Is it unethical to see the downside, point it out, but appreciate what was accomplished?

I think about the dilemma of socioeconomics preventing language choice from being a consideration and language mattering for writing better software a lot though.

> Poison control officials said in August they were receiving substantial numbers of calls from people experiencing side effects—mostly mild illnesses—from consuming veterinary-use ivermectin. Some poison control centers across the U.S. were receiving five times as many calls about human exposures to ivermectin in July 2021 as compared with a pre-pandemic baseline. The reports of ivermectin misuse coincided with rising numbers of SARS-CoV-2 infections.

These builds still have distribution-specific in-built API keys for some of the built-in services such as Google Safebrowsing, Google Location Services and Mozilla Location Services. See [1], [2], [3], [4], [5] and [6] for details and examples.

Additionally, upon first launch of Firefox, a unique client identifier is created, and this is sent to Mozilla by default probably before you get a chance to disable telemetry features within the preferences dialogs. See [2], [7], [8] and [9].

As these privacy impacting features are enabled by default, before first launch of Firefox on Linux, you should disable these third party and telemetry features and also lock down other security and privacy settings. See [10] and [11] for the method of doing so, and an example user.js that contains decent documentation on well over a 100+ recommended configuration changes to make Firefox more respectful of privacy and security. If you don't reconfigure a user.js before first launch, at least the "New Profile" event will be notified to Mozilla with the unique client ID after a delay of only 30 minutes from creation of the first Firefox profile[9] (first launch).

How is this a "good deed", could you explain your thought process?

If you buy a laptop and the manufacturer says they aren't providing the power brick, would you be okay with it? What about a juicer or blender without power chord? If I sold you a bike without seat (and sell it separately), is that a "good deed" in your opinion?

A case can be extra. Engravings on a phone can be extra. Stickers can be extra. These aren't necessary to use a phone, a power brick isn't the same as these.

You know what they can do to help the environment? Have more ports in their computers, so users don't have to buy more dongles. Make their products easily repairable, so users can keep them longer. Oh no, that would hurt their profits. So "courage" it is, for removing headphone jacks...
Going for the whole system of beliefs makes it a different proposition, where as you say we wouldn’t be trying to solve specific issues within our culture, but replace wholesale one’s individual culture with another.

I think it extremely rarely happens (or it does in dramatic ways that few people survive), and instead we try to look at positive parts and cherry-pick them to merge into our own culture. The yogi example is not (I think) about moving to India and restarting one’s life as a yogi, but to cherry-pick some specific parts (fitness exercices and/or meditation techniques probably) and wedge them where it could fit in our modern life.
I consider this one of the more egalitarian moves Apple made, and naturally they made a robust profit on it as well.

Apple invented the modern slab-of-glass smartphone industry, and always shipped a high-quality charger and headphones with the iPhone, something which started with its ancestor the iPod.

As a result, everyone else had to sell... some kind of earbuds and charger. These didn't have to be good, but they did have to be in the box.

Apple had the margin to make these quality: you can get better earphones but not better chargers. Their competitors had to put the same type of object in the box, cutting into already slim margins and often shipping something which sounds bad, and that makes the iPhone look better.

But as the market leader, they had the ability to say "The best phone in the world (reality distortion field!) no longer comes with earbuds or a charger. We figure you have enough chargers, and probably like the headset you have, and if you want new ones, we sell them".

So everyone else can just drop the shipping of mandatory e-waste, just to keep up with the iPhone. It was a bad Nash equilibrium, and only the market leader was in a position to break it.

Feel free to discuss the missing headphone jack and the multibillion dollar AirPods platform in the replies!
So the advice here is to "stop trying to predict the future" and "make sure you have a resilient portfolio". That's as useful as saying "if you want to be smart, don't be stupid, simple!". Looks like marketing fillers are reaching new bottoms recently.
> Shipping maybe 2x the amount of iPhones via the same cargo plane is cheaper and contributes way more to reducing environmental impact than not needing to create the 5W charger.

How much space of that cargo plane/ship is taken by chargers in separate(!) packaging, because people had to order both separately? Even if people do not buy Apple-made chargers, they'll buy a 3rd party company charger. What's the impact of transporting those?

Surely the people pushing conspiracy theories about the pandemic are a bigger concern than the subset of media that weren't effectively dispelling those conspiracy theories?

It really doesn't make sense to collectively blame "the media" because some of them say silly or incorrect things sometimes. The word itself -- a plural -- tells you there isn't a cohesive "the media" to blame anyway. Who are you actually talking about when you refer to "the media"?
A company who cared about waste wouldn't make planned obsolescence such a big part of their business model.
It is an obvious pattern known to anyone who visited or attended Eastern European or Middle Eastern universities.

Here is an example I saw recently: Khalifa University in Abu Dhabi is a STEM research-focused university and close to 60% of their students are female. They have no "soft" majors and most students have to achieve and maintain high performance to stay enrolled and get scholarships that cover their tuition or even give them stipends if they are in the top of their class. I saw female students happily working on robotics, FPGA designs, security CTFs, etc. They would be shocked to see how common it is to be the single woman in a classroom in other countries.

In 2019, I finally treated myself to a Unicomp keyboard...I'd had a Model M that came with a PS2 model 8085 that was on its way to the dumpster and so was free as in beer. I used the Model M for years until the limitations of the PS2 connector fed me up...

anyway, Unicomp isn't what it used to be. When it arrived, it seemed oddly lightweight, but I thought maybe my memory was wrong after nearly twenty years. Then it failed after mostly sitting in a box (I was planning to use it with an RPi as a sort of project to go lightweight).

Yes a keyboard that failed. Nothing would recognize it. Failed electronics.

I'd say fortunately it was under warranty, but Unicomp requires the owner to pay for shipping their keyboards back under warranty, a Unicomp keyboard is more than 12" long and so ships at a higher USPS rate, and thus the shipping was $24.

It did come back working and I put it up on eBay and wrote the rest off as sunk costs.

Writing up the eBay listing took me back to the Unicomp website to check my accuracy and I noticed that the weight shown on the Unicomp's website was more than two pounds greater than the actual weight of the keyboard I bought plus the box it was shipped in.

Maybe I just got a lemon. The weight discrepancy makes me doubt it. Failed electronics makes me doubt it. PVC for the cable rather than rubber makes me doubt it. YMMV.
Ahh you’re of course correct, might still be useful if you don’t memorise the mapping.

I should have gone with my gut and generated the first 100 with each scheme to look at what the distribution looks like.

Mod 19 scheme feels like it should be decent but it gives 10 half the probability of any other number. I did find a quick fix that may still be simple enough: take the number mod 19, and add the last digit of the original number. Now take the last digit of the sum, and add 1. So new guess = 1 + (n mod 19 + n mod 10) mod 10. Doing a quick simulation there is no obvious bias.
Personally, I have no issue with this, although I can easily see how someone else may. I have so many desk drawers full of random iPhone/iPod/iPad chargers that it got to the point I was just beginning to leave new ones in the box and/or just throw them away.

What Apple should do was give the option to the consumer. If you choose to not include a charger then you receive a small credit.
