It is a non-issue. Unless your country doesn't regulate data-sharing, doesn't require personal information be protected, doesn't require breaches to be reported, and doesn't have real punishments in place for people who do.

For example, I have gotten recruiter email spam to an email I used/gave to a company for HR communication only (luckily, it was a unique email address). Maybe a spam filter catches most of it, maybe not. It's a losing proposition to need throw-away information and spam filters for all types of information though. No filter is 100% accurate.

Seattle isn't rainy. It's pathetically drizzly. Flimsily misty more than anything. It hardly ever rains in seattle. By rain, I mean a real downpour where you can get soaked. The kind of rain you need an umbrella for. Hardly anyone owns an umbrella in seattle for a reason.
Good news is that they only have 5% of a very small business and they are not pulling their weight. My suggestion (other than talking to a lawyer):

- Approach them in person. NO emails, phone, text. Setup a lunch together. Have a frank discussion (without an accusatory tone). Something like "Hey, so I have been thinking that considering you are not able to spend time on the business, I would like to offer a buyout for your percentage. How do you feel about this ? " . Then pause and let them respond, react etc.

- If they respond reasonably positive or in your favor, come up with concrete paperwork to make this happen. For private companies, valuations are always hard but work out a deal that is a win-win

- If they don't respond positively, ask them follow ups like "It seems like something has to change on your end to help more with this business. What can you do to probably help more ?". Always end with open ended questions and let them respond.

The reality is no matter how un-deserving you think they are, they are now part of this company and you cannot just fire them easily. You have to tread carefully.

Ultimately, talk to a local lawyer who specializes in these things.

Looking at my collection of literature I see some evidence of a "seduction industry" aimed at woman from 1945 to 2000 or so, but today I think many woman feel like they are getting too much attention and if anything they would be ripe for an "anti-seduction industry" Post that Eric Weber book male interest has been increasing.
no offense, but it seems like you don't know how tension and current intensity relate to each other. Tension (100V) is like the pressure you get at your water tap: it can be high or low. Current Intensity is how much water it's flowing through your tap. The same amount of water (say 100 liters per minute) can flow from a high pressure tap that is only opened a little bit, or from a low pressure tap opened all the way.

Just because the car charges at 110V, it does not mean it consumes only as much as a bulb. In order to charge overnight, an EV will need to draw 1000s of times more current than a bulb. Multiply that by all the houses in a city, and you start having issues.
We moved to Portland, Oregon from Jackson, Mississippi last year. Portland, like Seattle, is a stereotypical "rainy" city and Jackson is not.

Jackson gets almost 10 inches MORE rain per year on average than Portland does. For one thing, in Portland it doesn't rain at all from mid June to mid August (it rains year round in Jackson).

But reputations are interesting things!

Something interesting is that historically this area seems to have been under significant conflict in various times in history. For example, The massive movements of the Goths across northern Europe due to the Huns movement into Eastern Europe in the late 300's. This came towards the end of the Western Roman Empire, with some blaming these massive population movements (100's of thousands of Goths) into the grain producing regions of Rome in Spain and Northern Africa. That eroded the tax base and grain production for Rome.
So I actually work in the tech telecom industry and can hopefully shed some knowledge on these topics!

The SMS/MMS space is surprisingly "new" in the telecom sense. Many carriers and providers don't have all of the tools built out that you'd expect to handle spam at the scale they're seeing. From what I've experienced, AT&T has the best spam filtering among the carriers, but again they're all pretty hit-and-miss for now.

When it comes to toll-free messaging all carriers seem to do pretty well (as it's easy to detect the same message being sent out 100k+ times from a singular number), but it becomes much more difficult as more companies move over to unregistered or "local" traffic. Businesses are able to send from local numbers using a technique called "Snowshoeing", or spreading the messages out across multiple numbers and dodge large message volumes from any singular number.

While many of these messages are annoying (such as political messaging/marketing), it's not illegal. However, if you receive legitimate spam messages, all carriers allow you to forward the message to the number 7726.

Be careful if the spammer is spoofing your number as the sender however, because carriers are not smart enough to determine the legitimate sender yet and it will result in your actual number being marked as spam. From what I've heard, being able to detect spoofed sms/mms messages will be coming some time in 2023 though.

I know a few folks who live in Seattle, and they all - at one point or another - attempted to convince me Seattle is not rainy. This alone is a proof Seattle is rainy enough.

On a more serious note, I agree it is about relatively little sun rather than amount of rain per se that builds this cloudy, rainy feeling in Seattle.
I wish the media were more liable for deliberate fabrications such as this and other things which they rarely retract, or if they do it's hidden and never given the same prominence as the original news article that tarnishes people's reputations.

I agree that I wouldn't use Protonmail if Signal was an option, but there are many situations where Signal isn't an option (eg. transactional email, people who don't use signal).

I think of this essay by Bret Devereaux a lot, where he talks about the propaganda behind Roman histories.

Agree with the general sentiment, and a constructive suggestion:

>Similarly when asking for something. Good: "Could you please get me a new monitor? I'm getting headaches from the current one's constant flickering"

Put the rationale ahead of the request. I.e. "My monitor is giving me headaches. It's affecting my work. Will you get me a new monitor? "

This way you avoid the defensive knee-jerk reaction before you have made your case. Notice I also added a sentence of why your boss should care.

A formula of two declaratives + a question is a good formula for short communications.
Does Rust not make claims about performance, even though a large proportion of that comes from LLVM's work? Do Rust or GCC or Clang (or probably even Haskell) use tests as the primary way to ensure/approach correctness? The number of compilers for any language that actually prove correctness and that are used for some practical purpose can probably be counted on one hand (e.g., CompCert), so I'm not going to use that as an appropriate bar.

The tcc backend is just a smart choice, and in TFA it is mentioned up front:

Muted is a perfect description. The lack of sun, almost constant cloud cover and moisture/slight fog in the air always makes all of the vibrant colors seem dull. Muted.

Yeah by far the worst experience of living there is the lack of sunlight and not the rain. Watching the sunset at 4pm while you're still stuck in an office is brutal. Much of the winter you'll wake up in darkness, go to work, and come home in darkness.

It's worth it for the summer and fall though, at least when things aren't on fire. I've never experienced nicer and more consistently amazing weather than the PNW in summer and early fall.

It's not about the identity of the person but the limit of SIM cards per person per year. Not just showing an ID, a copy of the ID is stored in the records and you are not allowed to buy more than 10 SIM cards a year.

Just because someone says that they are scammed, the authorities would not simply prevent the alleged scammer from making calls or receiving money.

Since Bulgaria and Turkey are two separate jurisdictions, the scammed person from Turkey will need to prove in Bulgaria that someone scammed them.How are you supposed to prove what she said to you on the phone? Once the mone is transferred, it's gone. To receive a Western Union transfer all you need is a name and a code.
> Then there's everyone else who just accept the hundreds of ads washing over them at all times, that 60% of their screen real-estate is for ads, are completely comfortable with auto-playing videos, that are okay sitting through 30-second ads before watching a random funny video on youtube, etc.

I can't stand it when people are like this! Like when I'm over at someone's house and they're playing something on YouTube or whatever, and they've got no ad blocking, and even if the "Skip Ad" button shows up they don't even bother clicking it.

When I ask them why they don't have an ad blocker installed, and how easy and set-it-and-forget it that would be, either they figuratively shrug or they say it would be unethical to block ads. Some of them enjoy the ads, which I think is partly due to conditioning.

Their whole screen can be plastered with ads and elements they have to dismiss, and they see no problem with it.

Inside, when I witness this, my face melts in horror like in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

I think you might be conflating significant discomfort with financial inability. People used to uproot their families and migrate while scavenging, or dad would move to a place with better prospects while sending money back home until they'd saved enough to move.

There are places where the cost of living is less than half what it is in Florida. Disrupting your family's life over a two year period to make a move is risky and painful, but far more feasible than people usually say.

Given modern food banks, charity, gofundme, etc, not wanting to move is a decision rooted in comfort, not survival.

Could you quote what you're replying to? Context. What stuff is bad for my heart?

EDIT: I loved this reply. I'll take any outcome except a tie. We're both farther away from neutrality. So for one you said I have a heart, OK I can't be polite enough to respect that, you fucked up, you know I'm a person because bots don't have hearts. I passed the Turing Test. And you are looking at my whole comment history it seems, the recent parts, because sure yeah I do talk about taking stuff in other threads, and I do say you can judge anything as you see fit, but your reply doesn't fit nicely into the conversation. So I as a matter of fact have a doctor already, maybe you should keep your insults to yourself instead of masquerading them as advice? Medical advice, at that. And the main concern with these stimulants is heart health. But in my case it does not, I took the medicine during a heart exam, no signs of problems. No heart pain. So that's odd, you are replying to my questions with answers to new questions, or medical advice, are you a psychiatrist perchance? Because you say I should stop taking it, aren't you going to ask my opinion in the matter of my psychiatric health, which I spend more money on than food? Surely I have say in the treatment, and also? Your medical advice was totally unsolicited. I never said,

So secondly, I might have gotten an operator on the line, so there's times I just don't know who's behind the characters in a string, no probability either way I just don't know. I may just have passed the Cussen Test. Well I passed your Turing Test, at least. Maybe the Cussen Test is harder.

So also, may I ask on what grounds you're giving me medical advice?
Quora seems especially bad about this too.

You search for something, and then Quora takes that as an invitation to send you a bunch of spam. To make it worse, it seems impossible to control/prevent this through account settings. Opt-out doesn’t work. It got so bad I had to just completely block all email from quora.com.

I still avoid clicking Quora links in search results because of this, even though I’ve blocked email from them. I guess it is a grudge.

The bad thing is, I used to be active on Quora and enjoy its content, but something happened at some point a few years ago, where they became aggressively spammy.

[edit 1] That said the summers are beautiful. Long days, fresh water lakes, boating, clean and crisp feeling (at least when I was there many years ago). The problem is there's no guarantee you'll get a nice day even in the summer so you end up at the mercy of that dampness.

You keep dancing around my arguments. The issue isn't that things have changed; it's that they've changed in a way that makes things confusing for consumers. Go ask a random person on the street which is better: "USB 3.2 Gen 1 or USB 3.0?" I guarantee you'll find people thinking "USB 3.2 Gen 1" is better because it's a bigger number. But despite that, they're the exact same thing: 5 Gb/sec ("SuperSpeed").
I recently ran into political science term "pockets of efficiency", which is used to explain why some part of a large corrupt organization (originally state, but I don't see why a giant corporation would be different) can work efficiently. I suspect Samsung used to have a lot of these, because they have manufactured a lot of terrible consumer products but still somehow they have had financial success and their components can be found in decent products too.

I used to have a double monitor setup and would program / play games / browse around on primary while watching a series on my secondary. But since some years ago I noticed that I can't do both at the same time anymore. Definitely programming while a series is on the background is a no-go, but if I play games I also just entirely miss the series (or vice versa).

Not sure if it has to do with getting older, or my primary monitor getting larger and taking up too much FOV. _Occasionally_ I'll run music videos in the "picture in picture mode" while working, but that's about it.
