I think Izzydata’s take is close to reality, and the majority of people probably haven’t thought at all about what transgenders are.

They see them in the news, but don’t care enough to mentally separate them from LGBQ for instance.
Is there a reason he should be apologizing? He's a bartender, the only thing he's responsible for is serving you drinks, he has absolutely no say in the accessibility accommodations the building chooses to put in. I don't really blame him for telling you to fuck off if you kept pestering/berating him after he told you there's no an elevator. What exactly did you expect him to do?

They freak out for a good reason. A pack of dogs will pull down a deer, eats it hind quarters and leave it to die. I had a relative who worked for the Department of Lands and Forest. When he was the FNG he would get called out every few weeks to kill them. After the third one he started carrying a rifle whenever in the woods and shot every unaccompanied dog he saw.

It’s hard to know what’s going on with these polls. Perhaps it’s simply mathematical illiteracy.

The fact that the author was not immediately banned from NPM says quite a lot.
It boils down to the same thing. Inflation is nothing more then inflation expectation, as people change their behavior as a result. The fact that fiat is moving towards 10% inflation is a direct result of a reduction in trust in it as a store of value. People expect it to be worth less, and as a result it is. If you look back over any period of time you have a constant erosion of trust in its ability to store value since its inception in the 70s. For cryptos its the opposite.

You can make the argument about different market sizes though. But the trend in both directions is clear.

I totally agree with the scars. I'm still heavily depressed due to the whole COVID situation. It feels like it will take years to recover even when the restrictions have lifted. I hear your though and I wish you well.

But WFH was a net win for me. At least it gave me some freedom in other ways. People no longer interrupt my concentration, they consider my status on teams more and ask before calling.

But these things are highly personal. I had other things that did and still do depress me heavily about the whole situation :(
Stop equating crypto with stocks please.

Stocks represent ownership so just by that virtue, it has intrinsic value.
I wish there were a named concept for doing the exact opposite of the example habits you’ve listed here. Right now (literally right now), anyone who can reduce/avoid using gasoline should do so to minimize the price increase levied on those who need it to drive to work. If you did this - not only would nobody reward you, I’m not sure anyone would even be aware of your deed. This is a challenge and opportunity for humanity.

Fair. Don't forget the dolphins and cephalopods duking it out in the ocean. (Also I think bears are one of the stronger contenders on land, ahead of squirrels for sure).

Realistically, though, one of them has to be first, if only by a couple thousand years, and then they'll attain global control sufficient to keep the others from gaining significant power. Much like we did. (though actually the ocean is still a viable second sphere of influence).
It also appears to be trained on news broadcasts (not surprising) since it will often interpret unclear phrases by injecting oddly political content, often with much hilarity.
IMO, a factor in why people overestimate minority groups is that the news media (and media in general) are almost always discussing one minority group or the other these days. It's in your face all the time. I'm in one minority group myself, and I'm kinda sick of hearing about it!

Find someone who needs your help with a problem in your domain and help them figure it out. Important: try not to solve the problem yourself. Pair with the other person and help as they solve it using the tools you need to learn in order to succeed at the new place.

Repeat with at least two more people, hopefully in different areas of the new company. Learn as much as you can about how those areas rub together, and where the pain points are. Document those pain points, politely.

Throughout this process, be personally vulnerable. If you're tired or confused or feeling imposter-ish, tell your buddies and connect on that human level.

Take excellent notes on the onboarding/ramping-up process, get your buddies to vet them, and share them with subsequent new hires. If the new thing is a startup you might actually be writing the new-hire guide as you go along, which will earn you endless karma.
What's even more confusing is when they thank the Russian soldiers. Probably because some percentage of people in Mariupol are pro-russia and some percentage are pro-ukraine. Once you understand this, it becomes less confusing.

I doubt much will change in London over the long term.

Johnson and his government are doing with the Ukraine/Russia issue what they have done on virtually every other topic: talk loudly and carry a very small stick. They have made some grand statements about punishing these oligarchs, while moving at a glacial pace, so as to allow these oligarchs to liquidate as much as possible and flee.

I think, once the war in Ukraine is over (please God that's soon), the next Tory government (it's always the Tories!) will simply revert to type, take money from the Russian oligarchs who still want access for their kids to schools such as Eton, Harrow, etc. and allow the laundering to continue.

As long as the Murdoch press continues to misinform the British public on these issues, Johnson and his Tory ilk will have enough air cover to continue allowing these oligarchs to finance their party (political), their parties (social), and further corrupt the entire political system (see "Lord Lebedev").
I wonder what googlers think about discussions like this? It doesn't seem like a rare opinion among techies that Google search has been declining in usefulness. Honestly, Google obfuscates the internet instead of making it accessible.

> I think people assume far too much ill intent on the part of managers.

Not ill intent, just basic human fallibility. I would be worried that my manager takes it personally, and has difficulty trusting me going forward. So I would be hesitant to do something that I fully expect to be severely career-limiting should I decide not to pursue this other opportunity.

It's not entirely dissimilar from how most people aren't comfortable being in an open relationship. Wanting one's partner to be monogamous generally isn't about carrying ill intent toward them. It's more likely to be about everyday human insecurity.
So, if I understand the story right, the author was allowed to continue on NPM as if nothing happened? Even though the issue was discovered in the original version before he published updates?

Sorry, that is explicitly an anti feature. Protect your keys. Use a hardware wallet — this is significantly safer than a credit card. A credit card gives all the data to the remote peer!! The shop or anyone watching can charge your card. Cryptocurrency does not work this way. You are in control — you transfer the rights to spend coin to another, you do not have coin debited from your account.

There is no crypto 2.0

It is always been the truth that small positive Deeds are unrecognized. I think the fact that people expect recognition for them is half the problem. Nobody should need a gold star or pick up a piece of litter or conserving gas in a crisis.

From what I can tell, Title III (public accommodations) only applies to businesses with physical locations that serve the public.

I would like to see that court case. It seem to me it would be fair game to refer to your software as Apache license 2 + XYZ Clause as long as you make clear that XYZ Clause is not part of the Apache 2 license.

It’s generally not against trademark law to refer to a combination of things. I can say that I use Microsoft Windows + Adobe Photoshop, as long as I don’t claim that Photoshop is part of Microsoft Windows, no trademark confusion will result.

What might get you in trouble is to modify the Apache license text itself to add an additional clause in the middle somewhere, or to call that modified version it “Apache 2 licensed” without any qualification.

It's trivial to switch search engines, so Google invests in PR to make it stickier. All those cool google projects that are constantly in the news? The ROI is PR.

It also made massive capital investment in server farms, for fast results, especially google suggest. A way of converting profit into economic moat.
The research about napping is conflicted. If you like napping don't worry about it too much. Do what works for you.

We know there are many factors here. Maybe older people who nap more have less hobbies and use their brain less (e.g., if you still work or volunteer daily you don't have time to nap). Maybe they take more pills and have other health issues that make them more sleep during the day. Who knows. Too many possibilities.
If you're trying to build a functional currency, you can't really afford to say that the majority of people earning and spending money are "not the target audience."

That's not how currency works, people have to want your coins for you to spend them. At best, having this perspective relegates Bitcoin to be nothing more than a speculative asset/investment. But if you want it to be more than that and you're just scoffing at normal people who point out why they don't want to transact with you, well then... surprise, they won't want to accept your currency for transactions.

Popularity actually matters for a currency.
It depends on the person. I live in a dense city and have been looking for a house. Unfortunately I can only afford highly residential areas further away (boring areas yet still in the city limits) and the thought of this really stresses me out.

I just love the buzz and activity all around me. People having fun, drinking, playing music. As I live alone I know I would be extremely isolated in the countryside. I've lived in more remote areas in other countries which is precisely why I moved here :)

But people differ a lot and there's not one size that fits all. Some of my friends live in the areas I call "boring" and they actually hate coming out here. Where I live is pretty much the hospitality / nightlife center and although I'm too old for all night binges I just love the feel of this in the area. When people are having fun that kind of radiates.
Prove it. There are other 2009 era bitcoiners here who can vouch if you were there. The community was known in 2009.

My x to doubt is because nobody claims to have “been in blockchain since 2008” it’s a give away that your talking trash. The Genesis block date was Jan 3rd 2009. You were talking to satoshi about Bitcoin pre launch?
Between James Webb and Ingenuity, major kudos to things that actually work. Can’t take any of these successes for granted, even if we spend $100 billion (!) on just one of them. Hope Webb is safe in its Lagrange point for a long life. Glad we actually had built the 100B of wealth to deploy.

Now if we can only get those $800MM littoral combat ships to work, we’re building like 53 of them and they don’t launch up, they launch down a few feet. Not rocket science…
Greed is definitely driving it and not actual utility, and that’s much different than the rise of personal computers.

I'm going to second that. Since switching off Google a couple years ago I have had fewer and fewer "failed" searches which required me to go back to Google to try the search.

The more people who use Brave Search (they own their own index), the better it will become. And right now I'd say it's orders of magnitude better than DDG and the others.
Is there any evidence here beyond correlations?
> suitcase full of cash. From a security perspective, it has the interesting property that transactions involving one don't have to be publicly recorded and processed on a public, global, openly accessible peer-to-peer network in order to complete.

Indeed, but it also has drawbacks. You need to find someone with capability to use that much cash without suspicion.

Also, I think most of the money laundering is made across borders, from people willing to enjoy their wealth in a country different than the one they earned it. Think money earned to US to be used in Mexico, or nationals of a heavy currency export regulated country (rmb, ruble). Customs are very efficient at looking for cash moving through these borders.

Maybe you should try an opposite approach. When kagi gives you useless results switch to Google.
I agree, but I also believe communication should be consensual. That is, the recipient must give consent to install the malware. Otherwise the transmission is a commission of fraud against the recipient.

That said, such a law is difficult to enforce, in a justice system as moribund as ours, so instead we rely on (probably wrong) heuristics about what specific behavior makes us safe, and indeed, whether or not our resources have already been breached. Such behavior is what drives the overwhelming dominance of GMail, which is itself a remarkable tool with which to learn about any person group corporation government on the planet. So in terms of utility its hard to argue that malware is a good to society. Write a malware that installs a patch to prevent a 0-day in known use by a state actor, then I will be a malware fanboy. Not until then.

I still don’t get why. It cannot be so difficult for them to keep things like literal search, can it? What is the incentive to remove it and replace it with a needlessly more complex almost literal but still fuzzy search?

I do suspect the main thing people complain about currently with Google is the abundance of ads and the algorithm that has encouraged stupid amounts of articles of a certain length. Recipe for baked potatoes is now 2000 words long.

Well, with storage, they can do everything, everywhere. At worst, you make chemical fuels and ship them off to any weird place that has no sun and wind.

More than anything else, junior devs need to put in the hours and do the work. You need to make mistakes, figure out how to fix them, and how to go from there. Books are nice, but no book will help you if you're not putting in the hours.
You just repeated the wording of your story while ignoring my post entirely.

1) Contract implies consenting parties. Using the word in another capacity is a frame. It being a popular one doesnt change that.

>If a stranger in another country steals $500 from me I'm going to have a really hard time doing anything about it. And knowing their wallet doesn't mean I know who they actually are, as those aren't tied to an identity.

So how is this different from Cash? Except you actually have an idea of where the money is going and can track it, e.g. if it goes to a CEX. This is way better than cash.
