Because there is no answer to this question.

Failure rates are pretty much the same given normalized manufacturing and part sourcing.

And the fit and finish debate have been semantically mined to death.

User knows constraints, just pick one!

This is not the sort of choice that needs a support group.
"As the person leading the meeting, your job is to provoke and channel the talents and expertise of everyone in the discussion. This rarely makes you look smart."

This reminds me of the Steve Jobs quote:

I suppose prosecutorial discretion is the only solution. Biased/unreliable as it may be.

On the technology side, I'm thinking of two bluetooth (or similar) enabled wrist bands. One for the kid and one for the mom/dad. When the device loses connection to the other, the parent's band beeps and must be manually silenced. The kid's band could be connected with the car via bluetooth so the only time the alarm can be activated is when the kid's wrist band has been connected with the car in the last 10ish minutes (adjustable). Though if I were a parent I'd be worried about losing a kid in general too.
Should be fixed now, sorry for that..
You leave and never come back. Sell all property. Demonstrate clear intent to live elsewhere (e.g. buying property in other state.) leave nothing behind, not even a storage unit.

Oh, and you need to move to another state, not another country.
I wouldn't have, I was hoping for some specific stories because I would really, really like to know more about "normies" on these platforms getting banned!

I don't want names and addresses, I just would love to know examples of what they did.
Airbags are triggered electronically, not mechanically right? Then it should be possible to disable the passenger airbag only when a child car seat is attached.
Hi. OP here. I read some of the previous HN threads on System76 and just laptops generally and it seems like these won't be a good fit for me now. Maybe later when both products are a bit more mature.
Prior automotive safety features came up because so many were dying. It's pretty sad that we need more of these incidents before we can develop a technology to prevent it.
> Someone said "put Sony executives in jail for this", but for each of those executives we would have to jail a dozen executives from Microsoft, Apple, Google, Dell, HP, Intel, AMD, and more.

How about we actually start to hold executives accountable and put them into jail when they fuck up? Executives get seven, sometimes eight figures a year in compensation, but face virtually no risk - even if they do fuck up, they get golden parachute packages.

Part of why especially the Android ecosystem is rampant in malicious advertising, tracking, malware, fake advertising, fraud and other issues is because no one gives a shit to hold bad actors accountable. Just look at the current "Evony: The King's Return" advertising campaign - everywhere on my phone from Twitter to Youtube I almost exclusively get their ads despite there having been media coverage of their ads being fake [1] two goddamn years ago.

Youtube, Twitter, Google - no one cares about blatant spam and fraud for years. This shit has got to stop, and preferably sooner than later!

Teachers who accept work with pen and paper will be able to accept work if non-Bic pens are used. Bic pens aren't used to drive classroom learning, collaboration, and assignment completion like Google Classroom, Gmail, or Docs. Bic pens also don't stop to correct you when you misspell a word or suggest that you use a different word when you've used one that it deems to be offensive to a hypothetical audience.

I'm not sure how someone can have a notable majority in anything and not be said to be dominating that thing.

Yea I am strongly against that. I'll have to figure a way to make it clear to support the business by purchasing every now and then.

M1 MacBook Air and use a linux VM, docker container or remote in to a linux machine. You can't beat the hardware for the price even with the extra hassle of having to work inside a Guest OS for whatever reason. Don't torture yourself with some Libre Laptop hardware just for an OS.

Considering we live in world where Google and Facebook publicly state "We care about your privacy", I think this title pretty close to reality.

Have they proved the non-existence of bugs? Nope. But the title is also not the complete opposite of reality, which is what their competition seems to doing.
> if it bounces, the user has only himself to blame

So your system always makes the least effort and pushes the blame to users. Great.

How about just even do a minimal check that is /.@./ so that the basic format is at least there or if you'd take 10 minutes to look around, you'll find the regex browsers are using and just steal it and be done with it, so most of the malformed inputs are warned to the user before the user realizes the confirmation email isn't arriving minutes (or days) later and possibly lose the conversion right there.

> It's so much radiation it shines

I'll continue to believe that this is bioluminescence.

How well does water shield radiation like this? For much of it (electrons, UV photons) a thin film on the surface could be enough protection. A layer of salty ice should be more than sufficient, I would think.
> Doubting your expensive purchase

Except, there is not a single Windows/Intel based laptop that can offer the same performance as say, for example, an M1 Macbook air ($750).

There really is no comparison and there is nothing that comes close on the Windows side at that price point. If there is, please link me because I would love to know.

M1 has made Macbooks not only superior in performance, but also more economically viable than Windows.
At what point do we simply face the fact that a home automation system really isn't all that attractive to most people?

I have a smart thermostat and a few motion detector switches that turn lights on and off. I really don't need anything more.
Yeah I work form home and I looked into those spaces at one time and OMG ... yeah that's not something I'm going to do.
it's really not the same as console wars. You touch and interact with a laptop far more often than a video game console. That alone makes the comparison invalid.

While i am no apple fanatic, i will readily admit that much of their hardware is designed extremely well from an ergonomic standpoint. Barring obvious failures like their push to make things needlessly thin, a lot of their hardware is durable and holds its value well. Personally, i have a macbook from 2014 that i still use daily for basic tasks and its keyboard is very well built.

While some user behaviour is fanatical, one cannot deny that apply invest a lot into usability of their hardware and software and it shows. Can't say the same for a lot of windows laptops.
Sharing security expertise through CodeQL packs (Part I)
In my household they certainly are.

I'm already paying for Netflix, Amazon Prime, and HBO Max. Sharing those with friends, and receiving Disney+ and Hulu in return. We're back to where we started, with everything dashed across a bunch of different 'networks', and I left entirely because of the steep cable bill.

Like hell I'm going to add even more services, like AppleTV or Paramount+.
Users can check into a place whenever they are located in a cafe. Checking in starts a speed test and a review form. The result gets shared with other people.
Well, firstly, the wording of the question question includes the possibility that people simply haven't started a new project at all, which isn't unusual.

Regardless of that though, in many companies, particularly (although not only) smaller ones, there is one language that is just used for almost everything. It keeps things simpler, allows easier reuse of code, etc. etc...
For Linux to fix the WiFi card, you can use any distro with latest kernel. A lot of hardware support issues on Linux are due to slow release distros like Ubuntu (and a lot of people not knowing this assume it's due to lack of drivers in mainline Linux). I use fedora and everything works out of the box following the asus-fedora website.
> Your suggestion is to not use a regexp, but is less valid, and likely less efficient than a regexp that checks for the presence of an @ anywhere than at the start.

This is actually the whole point of what I wrote. Making the maintenance of the code low-effort, and having it be more permissive (i.e. less valid) and relying for the corner cases to be taken care of via email bounce.

See: explainer on "Now you have 2 problems"

https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/05/what-...

If you read this whole comment thread you can see where this leads: increasingly complex regex in order to handle all the corner cases. Forget the corner cases, just make it "good enough" and relegate those corner cases to email bounce.

Now - I don't have a case study to prove that this way of going about it is more valid than the strict regex validation you're suggesting. But I wanted to represent it as a middle ground between "just rely on email bounce" and "write a big long regex".
Nope, cell phone companies are required to keep location data for a time (18 months?) in case law enforcement decides they want to subpoena the data later. Google would probably keep the data longer if you have location tracking enabled on your account, because that's a feature. https://myactivity.google.com/activitycontrols?settings=loca...

If you don't want to be tracked 24/7, maybe don't bring a device that reports your location to multiple companies 24/7.
I'd suggest just taking off your left shoe and tossing it in the back seat. Unless you drive a manual. Most people don't, sadly, so it's a workable solution.
A similar thing: I've scraped the 'sms.db' from iPhone backups to create messages in my IMAP mailbox for years. It's nice to have all my textual correspondence in one place.

In a corporate environment, it's a seriously uphill battle to bring along an entire team to a project using another language. In my time at a large employer, that language was Java. Go has attracted a similarly enterpise market, that it really doesn't surprise me if Go has ended up in that space in many companies.
I would take that up with Freud rather than Google. Or maybe the Devil made them type that, in which case an exorcism would be easily performed in that context.
It is deeper than that (as shown in the story), it was like that during the Tzars also.

I once locked my daughter in the car. She was never alone or in any distress, I just somehow accidentally locked the door getting out of the car while the keys were on the front seat and my daughter was in the backseat. I tried to open the back door to get her out and was confused about why it wouldn't open until I figured out what had happened.

A passerby called security who called a locksmith and the police. Both arrived quickly, the cop deciding that my daughter was in no danger so there was no need to break the window unless the locksmith couldn't get in. Sure enough, he was in quickly. He refused to take any money for the call.

That panicked feeling was indescribable, and such a small shadow of what the people in the article must have felt and continue to feel.
Yeah I considered this too but it's not very child friendly. I live with family and I try to optimize for mobility. Maybe one day :)
I’ve always pronounced it Kim-you, although that’s probably incorrect
> Of course, I knew that cargo-culting...

You're cargo-culting the phrase "cargo-culting" here, i.e. using the term blindly without understanding it.

Using a programming language and related frameworks repeatedly, based on prior first-hand success, is not anywhere near the definition of cargo-culting.

> ...every time I start a new project, I question what language I should use for it...

Sounds like a waste of time unless the projects are significantly different from each other in terms of environment or requirements. The most productive and efficient choice is very frequently the language/frameworks your team know best. If that's not weighing extremely heavily in your decision-making process, you're doing it wrong.
Honest question: How do cafe owners make the best of workers using their cafe as a work place?

I've heard it referred to as the "laptop hobo" problem: customers that come and buy a small coffee and take up a table for 4+ hours.

How have you seen cafe owners handle this well so that they sustain the business and avoid the freeloader problem?

Sometimes I see "No Laptops" signs in cafes, but I'm sure there are better approaches.
Yes, we were very excited to get WHP (Windows Hypervisor Platform) support integrated. Before that, you could only use it with the HAXM hypervisor on Windows, which conflicts with the Windows hypervisor (used by Hyper-V, WSL2, and the Windows Subsystem for Android).
I had some childhood friends who could have served as the basis for the sitcom Malcolm in the Middle. Four brothers with varying degrees of brilliance, their household a constant state of mayhem. One did indeed dig a tunnel under the foundation of their house. It was more of a crawlspace but it went all the way down there…

Then there was the twenty-year-old tarantula… the time one learned to spin yarn and made a sweater out of his dog’s hair… that time they procured some authentic bedouin garb and built a bonfire of plastic american flags on the driveway (this was pre-9/11)… fun bunch
> Is this BS and marketing?

A lot of that money has been withdrawn via an exchange registered in an offshore. My bet is that someone who set it up has profited nicely during the war.

Has it actually helped Ukraine? Who knows.
They definitely market the "brand" leading to quasi-religious fervour.

Of course, there's religious devotees to all 3. I throw my lot in with the Linux crowd because of freedom: freedom to use the software and not give a fuck about anyone's philosophy or religiousity. And the knowledge that it'll always be open source, I'll always "own" my software, etc...
People have to remember that half the crap posted on these sites is fake. Without proper evidence that this happening, people are just wasting their time commenting and just feeding the troll.
I don't, hence the remark.
Really well done, especially the UI. Definitely going to put this to use.
It also reminded me of this story - https://www.theguardian.com/news/2020/mar/05/invisible-city-... - about a homeless man who built himself an underground house in Hampstead Heath in London.
Yeah, one of the things cryptocurrency supporters often claim is that the coin pools were generally designed to be fixed size and "deflationary" as a goal (at least from certain points of view), but deflation as a goal is just as bad as inflation as a goal. Too much deflation tends to spiral [1] and there are plenty of examples of real world economies in history torn apart by deflation.

I don't know what an equitable monetary policy would be, but I know that intentionally deflationary currencies look nothing like it.

Both Debian and Red Hat package Cargo, and also package various Rust crates as their own native packages, and then have Rust programs use Cargo to use them.

Users can check into a place whenever they are located in a cafe. You can do so with the little button in the bottom right corner. You can also submit places when you're a (free) member, without checking in.
This is true in principle but in practice most fuzz testing frameworks demand a fair bit of setup. It’s worth it!

But if you are in a time constrained environment where basic unit tests are skipped fuzz testing will be as well.
Well, Xcode only needs to be used if you're publishing to the App Store, which you wouldn't do with a linux machine anyways so that's a moot point when comparing them...
Aren't multi-stage rockets essentially "lifting fuel into orbit"?
Every safety feature is a slippery slope to sloppy drivers making mistakes. You can make the same arguments about disc brakes, anti-lock brakes, systems that mitigate crossing the center line or running off the road, systems that attempt to bring the car to a stop when a cyclist, pedestrian, or large animal steps in front of the car...

Volvo once had a "pedestrian air bag" that deployed on the front hood if the car detected what appeared to be a pedestrian being struck. Maybe that was a slippery slope to reenacting "Death Race 2000!"

I kid, of course. All safety systems lull people into some false sense of security. The question is not whether that happens, but whether the overall result is more or less safety. In general, we are statistically safer with these systems, even if some people become complacent.
I'd strongly add "4. It's isolating." There are no issues with "solo" hobbies, but it's definitely another axis and social hobbies def improve your sociability and relationships.

Open Source at Vinted
That isn't the point. In fact you're basically illustrating my point. Without taking risk, you will lose the value of your money.

If you had some perfect asset (not gold since the volatility distracts you) that increased in dollars exactly as much as inflation, then you would still lose value to taxation even though you only gained as much as inflation.

In the real world, yes, no perfect asset like that exists, so it's worse than that. You have to risk your earned value to keep your earned value over time.
This isn't a criticism of the author but as a society equating skillset with degree needs to end. For example, programming understanding and ability is not fulfilled by having a computer science degree per se, or even a closely related one, nor is it the case that someone with a different degree is not qualified for the task.

I've seen this firsthand, in that I've seen comp sci graduates who cannot understand what I consider basic programming, and psychology graduates who are very skilled at it. I'm not even saying that "applied use" supercedes everything, or that theoretical background doesn't matter, only that there are many ways of attaining this, and many have nothing to do with a degree per se.

It's like everything in society has to be rubber stamped by a formal certifying body.

I have a feeling this is one of the biggest changes in society in the last 100 years. In many ways complains about meritocracy are not about meritocracy per se, but what I might call "certificatocracy": placing weight on the wrong indicators, or overweighting certain things and underweighting others, or treating people as static objects incapable of change.
Safari isn't, you're correct - but WebKit is. And Safari does fall into the category of things that can be fully replaced.
It is definitely not easier to passthrough an NVIDIA GPU that I require for machine learning to a virtual machine on an M1 Mac versus just buying a laptop with an NVIDIA GPU. I don't even know if M1 supports eGPU, have not heard anything about it, and I doubt PCI passthrough or whatever you use for eGPUs works on macOS. Sometimes hardware does matter, and it glaringly matters (esp. w.r.t. CUDA).

Also consider gaming. Considering that GPU virtualization is not really a thing still, I cannot imagine, for example, gaming being easier on macOS, and the VM requires additional setup too.
> Except Mac, macOS and its third party apps are actually better.

Definitely not.

> Linux on desktop doesn't have commercial interest to begin with

Red Hat is literally IBM now...
Maybe you want to consider a beefy desktop with a battery-backup and plugging it in someplace cold and setting up a laptop to remote into it. You can get a lot of bang for your buck in a desktop, and going lean on the laptop means you don't need to compromise on cpu memory or storage. They even make special video cards that do the remote desktop encoding (PcOIP) that are really quite fine for coding, but I find xpra to be just fine for me.
The US is 185th of 248th on Wikipedia's list of countries and dependencies by population density [1], and the US' fertility rate is well below replacement at less than 1.8 [2] (replacement is ca. 2.1), and hasn't exceeded replacement since 1972, which would imply US population growth is down to immigration.

Your statement is also pretty nonsensical. If you visit the highest density spots in a country, then it's naturally going to be high density, and that tells you absolutely nothing about the overall density of the country.
