On most Android devices, you can flash a new recovery image on with fastboot. You can not do this with Samsung devices, Samsung has its own proprietary methodology of flashing recovery images called Odin. Samsung is a supported LineageOS vendor, but Samsung devices have an extra step to even flash the device with a pre-built ROM.
It's cool to see high-end locks address the key duplication problem. With 3D printers and phone cameras it's become quite easy to duplicate keys. I've tried this just for fun with my own key -- it's a little tedious, but definitely doable by a determined amateur.
Shadowstats is not a reliable source of inflation information. I would link to a critique, but to be honest I think this point is more forcefully made by considering the volume of search results on the subject. Please stop repeating misinformation.

I forget where I read this, but there was apparently an interesting phenomenon where each developer they went to immediately thought of making a fishing game, but felt that was so obvious that everybody else would already be making a fishing game.

And so, there are no fishing games :D

To have wobbly windows.
> You can either defend yourself, and possibly survive, or you can die.

That is just untrue. Historically, especially before the advent of nationalism, national hatred, ethnocentrism and ethnic cleansing ( so from mid to end 19th century to mid 20th century) conquest very rarely meant death. It was a different set of powerful and rich men on top, but the peasants were usually.. not really impacted that much. They were certainly more impacted when the war passed through their lands ( plunder, rape, etc.). Slaughtering the enemy civilians was rare and only done in specific cases ( like the Mongols, sone Vikings, earlier Anglo-Saxons).
This is how I felt about regular expression when I was first learning them. Now I feel that they're one of the most powerful text-processing tools that I know. I also felt similarly about SQL at the very beginning. IMO if you find yourself doing a _lot_ of JSON processing, learning at least basic jq gives you superpowers.
Turns out, starting work 4 years earlier in your life helps with compound interest.
Here's podcast interview with the creator of jq about what he's been working on at Jane Street: https://signalsandthreads.com/memory-management/
I think you'd be hard-pressed to find anything more than anecdotal that supports this conclusion.
The better error messages alone make this an improvement over jq IMHO.

Blu-Ray movie players will play audio CDs (at least the ones I tried did). Mine has digital audio output to send it to the DAC in my amplifier.
I faced a similar issue with Netflix when I tried to update the credit-card on my account.

Got a PHL Call Center that insisted the card txn was being declined. I tried to explain that there had been no api call for an authorisation attempt happening, as the failure was immediate, so there simply hadn't been any time for a backend round trip or stripe api call.

After some typical call center stonewalling I finally got through to a manager who looked at the logs and admitted the problem was an unexplained Netflix error and that in fact my card authorisation attempt wasn’t even happening despite the six times I retried based on the advice of the original CSR.

Then he told me they didn't know what was happening as it hadn't ever happened this way before and so presumably wasn't in their scripts, and nor could they kick it up to engineering! It was a one way callcenter outsourcing with no opportunity to inform upstream of any problems.

Their proposed solution was to delete my account with all the accumulated history back to the late 2000s … so, in effect, anyone who calls the Netflix help Center is being “unhelped” and encouraged to stop being a customer!

That's quite an unintended consequence of what was presumably intended as a cost-cutting measure, not a customer-cutting measure!

Non-local customer support is just terribly broken. I would wish for all support to be of the Joel Spolsky / Paul Graham type where competent developers can actually debug and fix problems, and problems are surfaced, not deliberately deep-sixed.
> I believe the FDA relies on the "maximum expected utility principle" - a cornerstone of free-market economic theory.

This has nothing to do with 'free-market economic theory'. It's about decision under uncertainty. The concept was expressed for the first time by Von Neumann and Morgenstern in a book that was supposed to explain how to play poker.

> "Each portion of wealth has a corresponding portion of happiness, and of two individuals with unequal fortunes, he who has the most wealth has the most happiness."

I have never ever read that anywhere. One could argue that rich people provide more value to society and then should be prioritise in some circumstances but what you are writing seems very unfounded.
> By the time the service was shut down, CNN+ had garnered around 150,000 subscriptions in a little over two weeks from launch.

This is baffling. Regular CNN has ~540,000 daily viewers, with less than 130,000 of those being younger than 54 years old [1]. It is just inconceivable in my mind that about a third of this largely geriatric audience would sign up for CNN+ in two weeks, AND that somehow they thought this was too few people.

I came here looking for a gron recommendation. I use this very often.
30 states provide some means of a free community college education (eligibility limits in some case, for all in others). Get the other 20 on board, nuke student loan debt, and no longer have the government guarantee future debt for loans (which will drive down college costs). The system will then provide more value at lower cost to system participants (although it will be a painful adjustment process for bloated institutions that have fed off of government loans for decades).

So what? You can opt-in to tracking in the macOS System Preferences, pane "security and data protection", tab "Privacy" at any time you wish should you not have done so during the macOS onboarding process.

In Debian, you can opt-in at setup time or any later time with a simple "dpkg-reconfigure popularity-contest" (even though that one isn't fully GDPR-compliant as you can't easily read what exactly is being done from the same screen).

He managed to become a billionaire even though he's autistic so I think it's fair to criticize him on the same level as we do others.

I'll offer one anecdote of counter-college hate. I went to a local state school, graduated in three years with winter and summer classes, commuted for the second and third, worked the whole time, and came out with a very small amount of debt (maybe 5-10k, been a while now and I don't remember). I made friends in college, I was able to get into a great job via an internship that I got from the school job fair, and got a great understanding of some of the fundamentals of computer science that I wouldn't have otherwise learned (though my practical learning was really done on the job). I also had a child my first year. I don't regret college, and it was certainly a worthwhile investment for me.
I personally am aware that shares are a very limited form of ownership and gave my personal answers for why I accept that, but the meta-level question that was raised by krick earlier still stands, which is how everyone else in the world sees it and goes "yep, that's totally fair, we don't need to fix this."
I like using `jq` to create line-delimited JSON and then using a language I know well (Node) to process it after that point. I find `jq '.[] | select(.location=="Stockholm")'` less readable than something like `nq --filter '({location}) => location === "Stockholm"'` because I'm much more used to Node syntax.

I dropped out of college in the early 90s when many of the CS programs were teaching dated material. It was the best decision of my life, no way I'd be where I am if I had waited to graduate before getting started into a career.

IMO, college is one of many possible options to success. They all have trade offs, and there is no universal answer that fits all of the addressable market.

If you do not go to college, you have some benefits (no cost/debt, earlier involvement in an industry), but also some drawbacks (less of a social network, less insight into how some mechanisms of business and career work, etc.).
There's no interactive shell from what I can see. How does this qualify as shell scripting?

The point of a shell is that it's how I interact with the system. The point of scripting that is to automate my interactions by storing the exact same commands I type and sometimes adding a bit of logic around them. Hush is not that.

Society as a whole would probably benefit from more trade schools, even for many jobs that are typically thought of as traditional white collar jobs. Though on the individual level it’d probably limit options and make it harder to switch careers.

> Hold ⌥.

Okay, I tried it. Cmd+V doesn't paste what was highlighted. (The parent is referencing Linux's selection, which, AFAIK, doesn't exist in any form on macOS. iTerm2 tries to emulate it by using the clipboard, but that's not the same.)

If I'm supposed to middle click, I have absolutely no idea how to do that.

> It’s ⌘↹.

If "↹" is supposed to be "tab", no, that's no it. Cmd+Tab is, as op says, a switch between applications, and pulls all windows of a given app to the top of the Z-order. Alt+Tab's functionality (pull this particularly window to the top of the Z-order) is usually exactly what I what — I want a particular browser window, which I have positioned to the side so that I can still see, e.g., my editor. But then Cmd+Tab fronts unrelated stuff on top of it.

AFAIK, there is no equivalent to Alt+Tab is macOS. There's Cmd+`, but it is different still.
Yes, and I think krick was asking what happens when something closer to a rugpull happens.
This is all theoretical tho.

In a situation like this you likely won’t retain those 25%, assuming you can identify them (it’s not always clear who is really making things happen and why).

Those are top performers used to equity based comp. Many will leave.

Scale like Twitter does takes a lot of people to keep it running. You can always trim low performers but that too has a major morale implications. See: Uber

My advice: go somewhere cheap, and get a practical degree.

I went to CCU for most of my college career (back when it had just become a standalone university). Wasn't (still isn't) prestigious, but with scholarships, was entirely free for me, and it had the added benefit of attracting some decent professors who had retired to the beach and still wanted to teach part time.

Today, for in-state tuition, it's around $47K for a 4-year degree.

That's about double what it was when I attended, IIRC, which isn't too bad given how long ago that was. Maybe I'm in a bubble, but ~$12K per year seems doable for just about anyone who can manage to work a part time job and / or get scholarships.

If you go through their business school, comp-sci program, marine-biology, or other practical degree programs, my guess is you'll probably come out ahead in the end.

The mouse acceleration curve on Mac drives me insane. There is a way to set it to "0" with some command line incantation, but it still does not set it to 0.

Also, the fact that I can't independently control the scroll direction of mice and trackpads is insane to me. The whole selling point of Apple is that "it just works" , but I can't even get my mouse working properly! That's like the lowest bar for an OS.
As someone also born and raised in Eastern Europe, I feel entirely the opposite.

All of those NATO weapons and aggression destroyed my country's economic independence and increased poverty and wealth inequality. I take no solace in being occupied by NATO troops.

"Best outcomes" by what metric? My dad did that in college and dropped out, joined the military. We were always poor growing up. Every person I know who did not go to college and got someone pregnant is very poor. Trailer park poor. I was trailer park poor growing up...

I'm the lucky one. I went to college, graduated at the bottom of my class because I was working 40 hours a week trying to stay afloat. I was the first of my class to get a job, the only one with a job before graduation. After about 2 years, I was making six figures and have for the last 8 years.

I'm lucky. Today I'm closing on my second house. The first one I bought 6 years ago with only $9,000 down on a 3% conventional loan has ballooned in value to give us a home 2.5x the space with over $240,000 down. $9000 into $240,000 in 6 years. Magic.

I have a wife and a kid. Lucky. Waited until I was 30 to have a kid. He's almost 3 now. The best outcomes? If I had a kid at 18, he'd be 12 and I'd be poor, never had gone to college. I would have either worked a full time job, retail or restaurants only in my small colorado town and never had the opportunity to go to college, to get internships and work part time. After community college, I went to state school and started working 40-50 hours a week. Multiple internships to reduce the debt.
I don't agree with this article but I thought it would be good food for thought

The college wage premium is still wider than ever even after accounting for inflation and student loan debt and despite Covid and online learning.

Most grads major in 'actionable' subjects, like business or nursing, econ, or STEM subjects, not the humanities or film.

It’s worth taking a moment to reflect on the fathomless insanity of expecting teenagers to hatch decade-spanning plans intended to shape the course of their lives, while their brain’s prefrontal cortex, responsible for long-term planning, is seven years away from being fully developed.

I don't buy the underdeveloped brain theory either. I don't think it's well understood what it means for a brain to be fully developed, and if so, what age or how this is related to impulse control or decision making. Plenty of older people, such as boomers, go into debt and are bad with money.
> Makes you wonder why we demanded ukraine disarm and give up its nukes after the fall of the Soviet Union

We were in the second nuclear age, that of non-proliferation [1]. As the USSR weakened, MAD became unstable. Non-proliferation was the superpowers’ solution. The system sort of worked. It started coming apart between the second Iraq war and Ghadaffi’s toppling (showing the consequences of lacking nukes) and Russia’s invasion of Crimea (showing the power of having them).

With the benefit of hindsight, non-proliferation stemmed from the same misplaced optimism that led the U.S. to welcome China into the WTO.

This is anti-vax garbage. Why hasn't it been flagged yet?

Ctrl-F tells me that the article mentions VAERS 30 times. I checked each mention, and never found anything resembling this statement from the summary section of the Wikipedia page on VAERS:

> Raw, unverified data from VAERS has often been used by the anti-vaccine community to justify misinformation regarding the safety of vaccines; it is generally not possible to find out from VAERS data if a vaccine caused an adverse event, or how common the event might be.
> but should those who published the crap or hosted the crap be allowed to get off without consequences?

YES. The people who published the nonsense are in no way responsible for the actions of the murderer. Neither are the people who manufactured the hardware, mined the raw materials, ran the cabling, or built the datacenter. Responsibility for action must terminate at the actor.

Liberty basically decentralizes power as much as possible. The inevitable consequence of this is that individual people are powerful. And if they happen to be gullible or stupid, they can exercise that power to do stupid things. The alternative is taking away power from individuals and concentrating it in authority. This inescapably carries a much higher risk of the power being corrupted and abused, since there are fewer actors who wield more of it.

I'm glad to suffer the occasional school shooting or laughably ineffective putsch, if it means I will never be subjected to a Kristallnacht.

> actions have to be taken against the peddlers of QAnon, election fraud and other propaganda before the stochastic terrorism principle applies

This is basically precrime/thought crime. I just don't trust any authority with that much power over any period of time. Following Blackstone's formulation, I would rather 10 dangerous lies spread unchecked, than be censored for promoting one truth.
Didn't that halve the cursor speed as well?
There's something extremely depressing about how popular this attitude of "college is a bad ROI, do something else with your time" is.

For sure, in the US currently there aren't many alternatives, so this might be practical advice for the current situation. But that isn't how this argument is framed most of the time. Instead, it's often more akin to "poor suckers going to college, haha I beat the system!" as if skipping higher education altogether is something to be proud of.

In other countries in the world, university is cheap or free, has flexible time commitments, and isn't necessarily pushed as something you have to do at 18 or you will miss out. But there still IS widespread access to higher education.

I just find it depressing that we are turning to the idea of less education, not more, because the system sucks so bad that we can't envision change.
