Those people taking 300k salaries and building amazon.com are also contributing to creating value for the customers of amazon.com.

Is the value created for the customers of amazon.com less or more significant for society at large than people who can't get a better job than minimum wage, voluntarily working for minimum wage?

There is no moral right or wrong.
I personally hate amazon and I would never work for them (even if I'm impressed by what Bezos achieved) but I don't judge people working for amazon.
I judge way more people working for the IRS, that's a proper criminal enterprise.
It works precisely because it is a tool made by a random person, so spammers are not trying to avoid it.

Such is the curse of spam: they get approximately infinite tries to post spam. We don’t really know how many spam comments Google is preventing from being posted, but any anti-spam measure they introduce will quickly result in the spammers changing tactics, probably within minutes.

Making a game is at least an order of magnitude harder than making a website. Web apps are constrained by the protocols upon which their built (mostly the lifecycle of HTTP requests). Games are gigantic state machines that also require complicated rendering cycles. Unity and godot et el ARE good developer experiences in that they remove much of the complicated stuff even if the abstractions they use require them to be a bit clunky.
I tried to google OP's setup (because I was curious), but all resources I found so far were about managing/enrolling an entire Chromebook before use.

However, the situation OP (and others) seems different: They are using a managed account on an unmanaged Chromebook, which already had private accounts set up. So I guess you could talk about a "half-enrolled" Chromebook.

Are there any official Google resources which describe this particular state and how it interacts with the data that is already on the device?

Minor nitpicking, but this isn't the smallest printer they do. It's the smallest with a scanner. The smallest printer they do is the MFP110we. It's essentially identical but without the scanner.

I know this is recently bought and returned one (nothing fundamentally wrong, just couldn't print on the cardstock I needed to use).

Well, if your arguments are coming from "economics science", feel free to make them. It's usually very entertaining to see what crazy things economists convince themselves to believe, while also thinking they are doing science.
> But you don't have to look hard to see the results of discrimination against men: something like 60% of awarded bachelor degrees are to women.

Why do you think this is due to discrimination? Isn't it more likely women are just more willing and able to put in the hard work necessary? If some men feel it is "unfair" that they have to put in the same amount of concentrated study as women to achieve the same degrees, then it is understandable these men are not as successful academically.
"just pay cash and tip well."

That's then actually paying more than 'around' you say for it.

I have personally worked on a tens-of-kW-scale wind turbine which was directly connected to the grid and was fixed speed and blade angle. It's quite common at lower power ratings because the cost/complexity of pitch control isn't justifiable.

It wasn't much more complicated than a three phase electric motor bolted to high-angle-of-attack blades, connected to the grid via contactors controlled by a microcontroller and a grid-intertie monitor.
This just seems so over the top.

Whole point of Chromebooks is that they are minimal devices that can easily be adopted for school work. What I find strange is that OP had to buy their own machine. Anyway even if you somehow convinced the school to change to a Windows based laptops all you'd achieve would be a tier more expensive machines for the kids to use. The school would still require same "spyware" to be installed.
Argh, DisplayLink :(.

Chrome has a log in screen like windows and Mac. You can login and out between google accounts like a gmail.com or a k12 account. Similarly but not the same— there is a second “add account” after logged in. This secondary account does allows access email but not override them, bookmarks, etc

I was surprised when switching to U2F authentication that I can only register one key on my AWS root account. If I lose that one single hardware key I'm in for a world of pain. Why half-ass such an important feature. Things like this make me look for alternative providers that take security more seriously.
I work for the paycheck and I don't care if my job makes the world a better place or not.
The DJI transmitter is a joystick module that doesn't have a screen. You plug in a smartphone and install the DJI app to see what the drone sees. If they're being smart, they would be comparing GPS location from the phone against the GPS chip in the drone to see if you're doing anything funny.
I dont understand your paradoxical justification that Democrats may still be boomers, but they're "one of the good ones though". How does political belief have a relation to age? All healthy people get old eventually and young people can also be non democrat.

Perhaps you can tell us more about your biases regarding other protected classes who might have political beliefs that disagree with you.

Edit: the post you just made about your career of being a subreddit moderator answered my questions.
It's the long term future of all streaming. After they increase subscription prices and their subscriber growth stops, they will still need to increase revenue.

So they will sell ads. In 20 years streaming will look like cable TV.
That is what being a music composer is all about actually, not siloing oneself in a instrument category.

Economics is not a science, it's an art. Believe me.
What this post misses is that there are a few people that will pay extra not to have commercials. So when Netflix starts to add ads to their offerings, and they will, they will have 2 tiers. A lower cost with commercials and the higher one with no commercials. It's the only way they can increase their earnings growth while keeping the subscription cost relatively low. I predict that with in 2 years we will see a Netflix with commercials.
That corp computer is owned by your employer. If instead you are a consultant who does work for several clients on your own machine, then it would be unreasonable for them to lockdown your personal machine. Instead, if they want you to use a more secure solution, they should provide the computer.
ChromeOS developer here (opinions are my own, etc etc), writing as a user though since I don't work on this specific field myself but I've been using chromebooks daily with multiple accounts (corp and personal) daily for the greater part of a decade.

You have a few options on how you log into ChromeOS. Once you boot the device, you can choose which account to sign in as. If it's your corp account, you get whatever corp policies get applied to you (like no play store, no linux, etc). If you log into your personal account, you don't get those restrictions (there's a note to be made here for stuff like enrolled devices which I don't think applies to OP and I'm not too familiar with anyway).

However, once you are already logged into an account on the device, you can also choose to "sign in with another account". This makes you run two accounts at the same time, you can swap between them without using passwords, etc (it's like switching a virtual desktop/workspace). You can even transfer windows from one account to the other so you can simply alt+tab between them as you would on a single account (for example I am typing this at work on my personal account in a window running inside my corp account). In this situation, whichever account logged in first is the account that "owns" the session and has policies applied. If you log into your corp account with play store disabled, and then log into your personal account as a secondary account, you can't use the play store on it. If you log out everything and re-log with your personal account, you will still be able to use the play store there.

> Even ignoring that, the word "tweet" viscerally feels light, nimble, quick, and sharp.

It did, until Twitter spoiled that. Hearing 'tweet' I somehow get associations with 'trump' (also slang for fart in British English, btw) and 'musk' (a strong odor).
If you add an arbitrarily large tax (e.g north of $20k as in Norway) on ICE vehicles, then one can make them as cheap as one wants in comparison. Subsidies work the same obviously but they cost money.

Same with gas prices. I pay $10/gal for diesel and that’s fine.

The point where EVs are economical compared to ICEs without sales taxes, vehicle taxes, fuel taxes, subsidies etc might be many years away. But that doesn’t seem very interesting if the point where consumers actually find them cheaper is long before that.
Aren't they a public company? If they don't keep growing their owners (shareholders) will be very upset and start firing people.

I'm from the outside the US and i tell you that those elections had an extreme bias by social networks favouring biden and suppressing trump. Also, election results are far from being obvious nonsense. Watching rigged elections all my adult life, a lot of telling signs of a fraud were there, and methods of suppression of dissent about them were eerily similar to how it's being done in Russia.

One simple thing: only a very misguided person would claim that voter id laws are an "assault on democracy". Oh, it makes harder to vote? Good! Voting is a right, if a voter isn't willing to lift a finger to exercise this right, then it's fair that his opinion doesn't count.

* Human contact only through intentional social plans, which are limited and can easily not happen. Could get roommates, but then I'd be stuck with them 24x7. Preferred having reliable by-default access to both socialization and solitude depending on the hour and location.

* Cabin fever. Few reasons to leave the apartment, no other place I can spend any length of time. Happier with a routine and changes of venue throughout the day. Bed to desk to couch doesn't cut it. Walks help but not that much. Restaurant meals expensive and unhealthy. Coffee shops decent but discourage long stays.

* Dramatically increased meeting load. Our data is line with Microsoft's data: people are spending 2-2.5x as much time in meetings as before the pandemic. Zoom is okay for presentations and monologues but trying to have a conversation is unpleasant and fatiguing.

* Losing the sense of my coworkers as real people. Running on the inertia of pre-pandemic relationships as they slowly degrade. Workplace is okay today but the future looks grim.

* Always been a big-city person. Hard to justify living in one now. Still can't stomach sprawl. Contributes to feeling adrift and without belonging anywhere.

In my youth I once worked for a small local airport near where I grew up. I did a lot of small stuff like mowing lawn between runways and cleaning.

One day it was my job to switch out burned out light bulbs from the approach light installations. It was before anyone was risk averse so I only had a ladder to climb up, keep as still as possible while wrangling the cases open, getting the old bulb out and installing the new one.

The most terrifying thing was bursts of wind when the whole construction, me included started to wobble.

I had quite a bit of an adrenaline rush this day.

Good times, but now I feel a bit old.

Edit:

Nah, anyone who cancels on you doesn't value you and your time. If there's a good reason sure, but all the time?

Would be better to find like minded friends instead.
I ended up getting a Lenovo USB-C Gen 2 hub a couple of years ago,

It works fine on ThinkPads. Unless you are using Linux, where 4k@60Hz does not work due to lane misconfiguration (maybe this is fixed by now?). On Macs, I have found this Dock to be a complete disaster. It would often not charge unless you plug/unplug the Dock several times. Also Ethernet often doesn't work (it uses a Realtek NIC). I had two and sold both of them, because they are practically unusable with Macs, and replaced them by Startech Thunderbolt 3 Docks, which work great.
The fact that the reviewer talked about ink (repeatedly) in a review of a laser printer definitely lowered my expectations.
> The right wing has been very successful by ceding the center.

Fascinating that you think this, I think the left have ceded the center.

In the UK it's Blair -> Corbyn (previously).
In the US, it's Obama -> Biden (well, not the Biden that campaigned but the one we got).

The left have moved much more left, the right more towards populism (?). And seemingly neither side is fiscally conservative...
Of course, but Netflix itself isn't really designed for that use case. The job of Netflix is to make content you want to watch, not to silence itself so you get some peace.

In your situation I'd use the sleep timer setting on the TV itself to automatically turn it off after a given time. It shouldn't be too hard to align it to match the end of the show.
Shhh. The man of La Mancha has a windmill that must be faced.

C# is very fast on average, but due to its runtime/GC it won't give you the consistent performance you need for game engine internals, which is what they meant by "slow".
My employer gives us OneMedical. I can’t say I really understand what it is. I concluded its a concierge service for some tests and procedures. Given the location of their offices, not surprised about the trouble they got themselves into. They seem like another in the pile of companies who provide enterprise scale HR services, billed at scale. Calm, too (the idea of celebrity voices leading meditations seems orthogonal to my mind).

The pound should be cheaper because of bulk pricing. The smaller the amount, the more you're paying.

Edit: Even then, the wholesale price will be cheaper than the retail price.

Edit 2: "The U.S. Cannabis Spot Index increased 1.9% to $1,265 per pound.

The simple average (non-volume weighted) price increased $11 to $1,534 per pound, with 68% of transactions (one standard deviation) in the $679 to $2,390 per pound range."[1]

Nobody actually wants that. You can make something equivalent to a human with your spouse right now and it doesn't solve that many problems.

People want AGI because they think it'll have properties of computer programs like being able to copy it everywhere and have it predictably do what you tell it. I suspect there's an inverse relationship between AGI-ness and this kind of usefulness, though.

Lots of people have high hopes about this development. However, the funny thing about all this is how the center of power is somehow moving to big tech - meaning that the rich guys with the big yachts are kind of in charge of The Show. Does that remind anyone of those Russian oligarchs? I mean, i mean that there's some kind of pattern here: the oligarchs get to run the show, then there is some sort of crisis, the oligarchs pick some side kick from the province to fill in the vacancy of frigging dictator, however the dictator eventually manages to kick out all of the oligarchs... Happened in Germany, happened in Russia, will you get something like this in the States too? (the problem seems to be that ollies have a problem because they lack legitimacy, they therefore tend to delegate power to some dictator, who they think can be controlled on their part, however eventually this turns out to be a miscalculation)
If they activate the microphone and pick up a background conversation, they could be found in violation of state or federal wiretap laws. At least one party must be aware that they are being recorded. I hope everyone involved gets held responsible and prosecuted.
> Redwood is healthy

I agree and I wrote "the project is quite healthy", so I don't quite know why others would interpret it in any other way. I also agree with the metrics that you laid out and those metrics will be surfaced in the future along with others, since numbers need to be put into context. For example, how are people contributing. Are they making simple spelling changes? Are they making changes to core languages (i.e. Typescript vs Markdown, etc.)? Are they adding a lot of new code and so forth.

Something worth noting is, the analysis is based on Pull Requests that were created in the last 4 months for both Next and Redwood and as it currently stands Redwood had 55 unique contributors and Next had 210. By all metrics, Redwood is quite healthy (as I stated in my comment), it is just that Next has a lot more contributors (4 times more and it something that can't be ignored), especially with the number of contributors in the +28 days range.
Whenever I hear the phrase “creating value” I think of this comic strip:

But LM's can't do causal interventions to separate correlation from causation unless they have access to the real environment. Would a scientist that can't run experiments be able to advance the field by just reading past papers? Even babies need to try causality laws by letting objects fall and observing what happens, we learn by interacting with our environment.
One question, derived from a limited understanding is whether we should view it as self-improvement if so much is dependent on exploitation
Just adding one thing: Some Netflix productions already contain product placements. The Tinder Swindler is a giant Google + Apple ad.
Yeah, the quality of a lot of Netflix shows just feels inferior to other platforms.

It is a technology mainly ( if not solely ) created by V-Nova, Standardise by the MPEG Working Group and licensed by V-Nova themselves [2] ( Not MPEG LA ). Basically free software and hardware implementation. But they charge content provider at a small per user / view fees and capped $3.7mn per year. Great for TV Broadcast or even Internet download ( as in torrent ). Not so great for free online streaming unless you are paid streaming services like Amazon or Netflix.

The new Brazilian SBTVD Forum [3] has chosen LCEVC along with VVC as baseline for their TV 3.0 codec.

The great thing about LCEVC ( on paper as I haven't tested it myself ) is how it reduce encoding and decoding complexity on baseline codec while giving you better quality. You are encoding a 1080P stream and upscaling it to 4K ( which your 8K TV will also upscale it to 8K LOL ). It helps with a lot of encoding or decoding complexity with latest gen Video Codec such as AV1 and VVC. I haven't checked if there are any latency issues though.

I only wish they provide a freemium mode for non-revenue generation ( no -ads ) usage on the web.
