Agreed, I even remember audio of earnings reports at NBC or some other ginormous media outlet, where the CEO was basically like "he may not be good for the country, but he's good for our business".

If this is a very common question, Mastodon could probably use some sort of FAQ on their site if they are hoping to reach the unwashed masses like myself.
I think if you:

1) Don’t use global variables
2) Use interfaces liberally
3) Assume implementations will need to change

This gets you a lot of the way there.
My point is that employers in tornado prone areas should have sections of the building that are sufficiently safe from tornados. As far, as I can tell, Amazon was following the rules, but labor activists are blaming Amazon for doing say, saying instead that they should have let them leave.
"union" would be a pretty normal term for a kudos app.

Like "great job working with the union and the company on that safety issue!"
I was once told by a wise man that asking this very question was a sure sign that you weren't rich enough to own a Mercedes.
EVs are expensive right now and the prospective buyers are hardly concerned with saving a few cents per mile. What they are concerned with is slow recharging, battery degradation and the mandatory survelliance module in the car.
I fought this with a suburban school system in Indiana and won. The spyware was installed on Chromebooks I bought. Before contacting the school, I monitored network traffic for about 1 HR and found a an ad fraud click bot and logging being sent to India.

When I contacted the school my ask was they remove the spyware from my Chromebooks. The first answer was, no. I asked again via the superintendent, and got a call from their IT director. I shared with him what my traffic monitoring found and a few days later I get another no.

My last try was simple... I paid a lawyer to write a simple letter demanding to have the software removed or be shown the warrant giving the school the right to install surveillance software on my laptop. The next day I get a call from the districts lawyer who wanted me to confirm the software had been removed, and it had been.
Let's do some math for fun. Amazon now employs about a million workers in the US. Let's naively assume 3/4 of them work in warehouses and delivery as opposed to corporate. Let's also assume they work, on average, 2000 hours a year (roughly full-time). For Amazon to raise those wages by $1/hr (or lower efficiency demands by ~7%) it would cost them around $1.5B every year.

Now, you're probably thinking that's chump change compared to Amazon's profits, but fun fact: Amazon's online sales segment doesn't make much profit. In fact, it lost $200M in Q4 [1]. So you basically want Amazon to either go deeply in the red, or else they have to raise prices on products to also raise worker wages.

" Even more annoyingly, it doesn't use USB-C - instead it's that awful square USB plug. Eugh!"

Isn't this pretty much synonymous with printer port at this point in time? I have a few other devices with this particular USB port like old old USB1.0 external drives. However, over the course of time, it has been pretty much regulated to the realm of printer port. Also, by not shoving USB-C on it means that it's accessible to a much larger range of users. Doesn't seem so strange of a decision to me.

"There's also an "ID copy" button which is specifically for making copies of ID cards and passports. No, I've no idea either. Seems like a feature in search of a user."

This is actually handy where it allows you to scan one side of the ID and then flip it over to scan the second side of the ID and then print both sides onto one piece of paper at once. The fact that the author can't figure that out or be bothered to test it for the review yet add this to the review does not give me much confidence in the reviewer.
Remember your loved ones with Memori – Free for Ukrainians
I think it’s fair for the person you’re replying @ to point out the heritage foundation is a self professed conservative think tank if you point out that you believe the NYT is not trustworthy. There’s nothing inherently wrong with being a conservative think tank but it’s important to consider how data presentation might be impacted by the person(s) presenting the data. Which is in line with your suspicions of the NYT.

QED.
Have just created a new web app for memorial tribute pages with stainless steel tag QR Codes to apply to your keepsakes, we created Memori as we have struggled to find information to our relatives and in todays digital world we should have access to this. Create a tribute page in minutes and share with friends/family - allow them to post their own tributes on the memorial page, photos/videos/memories. Feedback greatly appreciated - would like to be able to spend more time on this and make it the experience I imagine but it is just a solo hobby project for now
Am I nice or kind? I'm glad it's not nice xor kind, because I don't think the two have to be mutually exclusive. We're like different people in different contexts, too, psychologically speaking. Maybe I'm nice nand kind right now.
Depends. In the Active Directory world, policies can be applied at the user or computer level. Not sure about Chrome OS, but computer level policies absolutely can effect other users. I bet if OP signed into a normal, non-Google Classroom/organization affiliated account after they reset the device, they wouldn't have found GoGuardian running. This seems like if you connected an arbitrary device to a Windows domain over say VPN, then got surprised when user level policies were applied to the profile created on the local machine resultant from the process of connecting a machine to a domain. This is very much by design of ChromeOS as other commenters point out.

Putin's position is unaccountable to voters, he isn't losing the Kremlin's twitter account through an election, for all intents and purposes it is his personal twitter account, worse actually because it comes with the machinery of government behind it.

I'm sure my perspective is skewed as a longtime carless city-dweller, but why would anyone by a ICE commuter car these days? I understand the options aren't expansive, but do most drivers really need anything beyond a Nissan Leaf?
You are advocating conflict escalation and expansion that will drastically shorten the decision tree that ends in the permanent end of human civilization in its present form. Given that the Ukrainians -- with Western material, financial and intelligence support -- appear to be capable of destroying the combat power of the Russian Army in the field without a direct NATO intervention, what you're in effect asking for is to take on the literally largest conceivable risks for minimal added benefit beyond feeling tougher and stronger and like you're doing something, all without personally having to leave your chair. Forgive me if I don't think that's a good trade off.

And as an aside, my personal view is peak nuclear escalation risk is in another 3 or 4 weeks when Russian forces in the east and south hit a similar point of exhaustion/forced withdrawal that we just witnessed in the north. I don't think Putin is going to react well once the news finally penetrates that his miscalculation has destroyed his army and revealed him and the Russian state to be laughingstocks.

Using Bash examples was a bad idea. Bash scripts are by-and-large hacky things written to solve a simple problem expediently. OpenAI's output code reflects this reality. Expecting OpenAI to write Bash code defensively is like expecting OpenAI to complete SMS messages with scientific english.
Apparently you just missed me saying my CalDigit TS3+ failed last week and IT had a whole bin full of others that failed.

It's not the cables.. they handed me a new TS3+ and it immediately worked perfectly and it will probably continue to work for a year or two before starting the process of flaking out.

To be honest with the # of them I've seen break (almost everyone I know at work) the posts here seem like astro-turfing.

You might have a good one, but if you had 500 of them in an office you wouldn't think the product is "good" on average.
I saw this too from a Satechi hub! When connected to power and Ethernet but not a computer, it would crash my home network switch, requiring a power cycle on that. Maddening.

Today I noticed the line at the Costco Gasoline Station was at least eight deep. What will this look like when it takes a fast charger at least an hour to charge an EV?

Or, you know, you could just call the school during active hours and ask them politely to unlock it. They'll probably be more willing to accommodate you if you act older than your shoe size.
To me it's a pretty good example example of the flaws of private property. A single person can block infrastructure which would have benefited millions for generations.
I realized that I’ve shifted the goal post quite a bit here. From “The policies advocated by Hernstein and Murray can be considered racist” to “IQ is a scientifically uninteresting construct”. Or as you say—quite truthfully to be honest:

> But calling people with different conclusions on that question 'racist' is not debating. It is giving yourself an excuse not to have the debate, while doing nothing to convince the other side.

I did this a little on purpose (as you have noticed) because frankly the latter is a much more interesting debate (which I merge from a nibling thread I started where I made this claim).

So to address your concerns that I claim Hernstein and Murray are racist in their book The Bell Curve. First, I never called them racists directly. I claimed that their policies can be considered racist in the cultural context of 1990s american politics. I also claim that they blatantly and unapologetically use racist studies to back up their claims. So they are racists by association, and their work is racist as a result.

If they had made a convincing argument about the heritability of IQ and it’s importance in explaining behavior, and omitted citing blatant works of scientific racism to back up their case, I would be more hesitant in calling this work racist. I would just say that their conclusion is wrong. That we would need to make accommodations for people with lower IQ. We should keep affirmative action despite it being counter-productive simply because it is the right thing to do, etc.

However they did make a very unconvincing case that this g-factor explains the group difference in intelligence between groups. And they did cite racist studies to back up their case. And on top of that they used rhetoric to advocate for conservative policies which falls in line with what racists used at the time.

So to summarize my views on this less interesting debate. I consider Hernstein and Murray’s policy proposals in The Bell Curve to be racist because a) they use an unconvincing argument based on racist studies to advocate for set of policies, which b) were widely shared by other people at the time which were doing so because of their own racist beliefs. However you are of course free to disagree with my conclusion, although I hope you can see that these two premises for that conclusion have some reason.
Just curious.... why?
It goes both ways. Ugly people feel the world hates them and they reciprocate.
I’d wager that a higher percentage of 2022 Honda CR-Vs will be on the road in 2037 at 200K than 2022 Tesla Model 3s will be.

(Our gas car is a 225K mile 2005 CR-V.)
The physical design of the switch ought to be easy enough to make physically interrupt the arc.
> I wish we had a Linux Foundation for automakers to have them collaborate and make exchangeable parts and open source computer systems. Their greed prevents any serious progress and regulations also make this difficult, but I don't see why there isn't some collective.

Oh boy is this an odd basis to an analogy.
I'm fully on board in supporting Ukraine, but the quality of the coverage is no better. I don't often watch TV, particularly American TV, but I was down at a friends recently and he had CNN on and I was like... yep, same old same old, just as bad as it was in the early 2000s. Sensationalistic, simplistic, and highly biased.

Beats the Fox News bias, but still bias.

But, I'm neither liberal or conservative. I'm a socialist, and mainstream politics is pretty alien to me on both "sides."
The esp32 vs avr split covers a pretty wide range of needs. esp32 for wifi stuff, horsepower, or just more pins. The AVR is for power sipping things: ATtiny pulls 10nA(!) in deep sleep and you don't need a voltage regulator on a 1s lithium cell.

Since this is all hobby projects anyway, I may pick up an stm32 board for the next round just to see what's up.
Hey, making games isn't my job, so I'm just as happy making OpenGL demos instead of games.

> It's like I've been driving a Honda Civic in city traffic, and now I'm in a BMW cruising down the highway.

There's a certain satisfaction in doing my own thing, even if it's crappy. Like Gilfoyle's electric car in "Silicon Valley".
> A big reason those measures were as not as effective as they could have been was that people were actively undermining them pretty much from day one.

Communism is a wonderful thing, if only everyone and their dog were on the same page, we'd all live enlightened lives with every need fulfilled. It truly is great, on paper. "Scientific communism" has proven it, being an academic discipline for decades.

A big reason it has not happened as it could was that some people were actively undermining them pretty much from day one. They didn't want to see the light. So the implementors were forced to isolate, expulse or exterminate those people. Just 0.1% of population. And then another 0.5%. And then a few. And then some more.

So in reality, we have to deal with "just a few more bad apples" forever, having Gulags and Holodomors, and the communism itself "just around the corner" permanently.

For me the parallels between that and covid measures are crystal-clear. If something only works with 100% uptake and participation - the in reality it doesn't work. And all the "unintended" negative outcomes are on the conscience of those who pushed for these measures.
I'm not sure why we should believe or publicize anything Mercedes says. They will pay zero in consequence for bad public proclamations, but stand to benefit greatly if they can delay switching, since they have been planning poorly.

We should assume that they are lying and dishonest until they can actually prove otherwise.
Nail on the head.

It's an uncomfortable feeling realizing we're basically doing it wrong.
Well, he didn't write Facebook, but Dan Abramov only took a semester of college and is now one of Facebook's most well known engineers, due to creating Redux.
How do you conclude "no action" though? Like how do you know what they donate their time to, how they vote, how they try to change minds, where they donate $, etc.?
In Haskell you can you Lenses to easily manipulate sub-trees, individual values, or a selection of values in tree like data structures. It is very powerful.
With gas at $2, maybe. With gas at $4, payoff is a lot quicker.

If gas stays at $4 a gallon for any period of time, people will figure out how to make EVs work for them.

It doesn't just involve US soldiers dying, it probably means some cities turned to cinders.

There's a line you cannot cross, and wasn't crossed in the entire cold war as bitter as things got-- and that is NATO troops on Russian soil or vice versa.

We just went all electric with 2 Teslas. The first one is definitely on the more expensive side so we were looking for a cheaper second family car. Something like a Toyota Camry or Honda Accord.

We ended up getting a long range Model 3 as our second car (lease). When we factored in zero maintenance, zero brake changes, gas savings and time saved not having to deal with any of the above, the cost of a M3 was right around the cost of a Camry. Needless to say, the M3 is much more fun to drive.

What initially seemed excessive was pretty reasonable all things considered.
Who was to blame again? I think I remember a cloudflare rep comment that they had tried to get this resolved with the site owner.
When push comes to shove, it's about power. F.ex. the desegregation of Arkansas schools [0]. If don't have force to command, you don't have authority.

My point that the very existence of laws (any laws!) is predicated on access to force.

Without force, you can only have those rules to which everyone voluntarily agrees, and continues doing so.

Right, just many folks on this thread like OC insinuating that it's already been built.

I think asking why this idea got as far as it did is a valid question. I mean creating an app and filtering for profanity is standard. But then who hijacked the list and added pretty benign terms?

"Over the years, the Model S has shown a battery degradation of less than 20% over 300,000 miles from Tesla owner reports on Plug-In America (manufacturing years 2012-2019)."
Must be all those crypto lambos.

A humble new Honda is $19,000. Incidentally that's also about the average for used cars. People are holding on to their cars longer and longer nowadays, and most don't buy new.

The "avg new car price new huge number" is a meme news story. Markets are wrapped due to supply chain issues from covid, Ukraine war, and inflation.

You should compare apples to apples.
So, ICEs and all of their problems won't go away on their own?

Sounds like a great argument for higher carbon taxes.
This map is little better than science fiction in terms of the extreme extrapolations it reaches at to get its results. I'm sorry but there's just way that no current climate modeling could come to these conclusions with anything even remotely approaching certainty.

If some of you would leave behind your climate change disaster porn fetishism for a bit (despite using plenty of the latest smartphone technologies in your comfortable middle to upper middle class lives while you lambast the world for "never changing"), you might consider these climate predictions rationally enough to realize that doom scenarios like these have been ongoing for decades, if not centuries and have literally no basis in fact. They are no more than speculation based on guesses derived from a snapshot of the present. Remember the air quality predictions of the 70's? How have those gone in many of the places where it was predicted that millions would suffocate? Just one example.

For one thing, the 2.7 degree increase they mention is desperately severe and seems to assume that nothing in our human world will improve in any way in so far as contamination of the world is concerned, or present and near future technologies to mitigate it. Secondly, the entire graphic hinges on afar too many unknown unknowns and a total lack of imagination for potential positive outcomes from warmer temperatures or human innovation under steady duress.

I don't deny the dangers of climate change or the effect that humans have on the world already, or if they're not careful about modulating their behavior down the road. It's also undeniable that even now, irresponsible climate actions have caused suffering for certain populations, but none of this justifies treating doom porn as a hard or realistic assessment of the future, when nothing so far has even concretely borne out older predictions of man-made climate catastrophe in even the present time.
Here's one example: Tesloop operates a Tesla only taxi service in southern California. 6% battery degradation over the first 194,000 miles. Battery was replaced at this point, and the subsequent one had 22% degradation over an additional 130,000 miles, but this is thought to be related to frequent supercharging, and frequent supercharging to 95-100% state of charge (not recommended).

This has nothing to do with USB 3 or USB-C, though. The same shortcomings were true of previous USB standards, it just was rarely feasible to run so many different peripherals through a single hub.
> because both force cooperation

When has Microsoft forced you to cooperate with them?

You try to make some sort of moral equivalence between force in the USSR and the US. Do you realize that the USSR built a wall around itself and would shoot anyone who tried to leave?

All I can say is, talk to someone who grew up in the USSR. I have a couple friends who did. I saw the Berlin Wall in 1969 in its heyday. I've heard the bullshit from Soviet apologists trying to deny the Wall and its reality.

Then come back and tell me about how McDonald's forces you to ... what ... I have no idea what you imagine McDonald's is forcing you to do.
