> What you shouldn't do though is treat people differently because they don't have those traits that you value.

so back to your example - if you only liked blonds, and exclusively date them, then are you not treating other potential dates "differently" (in the sense that you do not date them or even give them as chance)?

I find it exceedingly hard to imagine how it wouldn’t. Think of how people use their products, and the cascading effect of that use being disrupted with long term interrupted access to information that was probably stored only there. Think of whole organizations scrambling to recreate knowledge that’s only partially in their heads.
Gnucash supports importing transactions from my bank account via aqbanking. It uses FinTS/HBCI afaik. And I am surprised and very happy that this still works after PSD2. A manual import, copy& pasting every single transaction would increase the effort intensely.

I use gnucash for about half a decade now for private financing and it is absolutely a valuable helper. I run it at most once a week: Fetch transactions, query balance and reconcile.
Sure. See below.

It isn’t super cheap and it isn’t great if you plan to take it out regularly.

I am currently playing with Fly.io, and it is very simple to use. If you can dockerize your application, you can run it on Fly. Obviously, it is not comparable to AWS etc., but it is totally fine for single apps. You can run multiple apps too, and they can communicate using Fly'a private network and private DNS, but I haven't tried it yet.
I was curious too. From https://fig.io/blog/post/launching-fig :

How will Fig make money?

We get asked this question a lot and so as a final note to our launch, I thought it would be good to address it.
First, Fig will always be free for individuals. We want users to feel confident that even if they sign up to Fig and become the biggest power user, they will never be charged.
Our pricing model is inspired by GitHub's:
For individuals and open-source projects, Fig is completely free.
For team products that require hosting, Fig will charge a small fee per person per month.
The value of Bitcoin is in the fact that it is limited, verifiable, anonymous, and unblockable.

It is limited because there can be maximum of 21 million of Bitcoins, and no more. This produces scarcity.

It is verifiable because it's based on the blockchain technology. Anyone can verify that you actually own the money you claim to own. In the fiat system, you have to rely on the banks for that, and banks can be painful at times.

It's anonymous because you don't have to attach your personal information with the wallets. Creating a wallet is as simple as generating a random number. You need no permission from any higher authority (banks).

Because of the above reasons, Bitcoin is unblockable. No government can block it, directly. They have to adopt indirect methods like heavy penalty on being caught, blocking internet services, banning exchanges (which aren't fundamental to Bitcoin). And since it is anonymous, no person can be banned from using it.

So yeah, the value of Bitcoin is that, it is a medium of exchange for value, but which awesome features. Saying it is valueless, because it doesn't produce anything tangible is just being naive.

I think blaming culture fit is widely known as 'we are discriminating, either explicitly or as a result of our own biases'. Once you have a pattern of bad culture fit with older people, feels like an easy case to make.
It was very pleasant to be back in this game, almost like coming across someone you knew from grade school, saying 'hi!,' and then finding an excuse to carry on with your day. One thing that's impressive is that the game is under an entirely different engine. It's only noticable in certain places.

The additions do help with one thing I found sad about the original game, which is that it felt rather dead after completing everything. There's more of an emotional throughline now, even if it (intentionally) doesn't make much sense.
> is it not rude to have expectations for something you didn't build and be entitled that it to be offered to you for free

Well, Fig or any other free to use software wasn't commissioned upon my request therefore I don't think that I owe anyone anything. Engagement is worth quite a lot thise days, they earned my engagement by offering me something but did not disclose the requirements to use their product upfront so I ended up not benefiting from the product.

Think of this, you are walking down the street and someone really nice offers you a free meal. You accept, sit on the table and the food arrives but to let you eat the food they ask you for your contact details and a copy of you key for your home. You say, no thanks, would rather pay and they say no, it's only free meal in this restaurant.

I'm not sure I will accept it and assume that they will upsell me a boiler.

Okay, there's probably nothing nefarious but they stole my time and attention without giving me anything back. The restaurant shouldn't have advertised free meals but meals for key and contact details. I would have had gladly skip the offer, so they can concentrate on those who really need the meal and are willing to fulfil the request of the restaurant.

I spent several years camping all over the U.S. recently, from the countryside to the sidewalk. I had a good experience doing it, and little trouble. Apolitical.

If you're trying to not pay rent for a while and enjoy a more free lifestyle, I think it's worth dipping one's toes into, especially if you have prior camping experience.

Well that's new to me, because I absolutely do not get that from the term "property owner". For example, if I have a place I own that my brother lives in, and someone asks my brother "who is the property owner", he would definitely answer me. I own that property. How does the term property owner say anything about where the person lives in?

the article you linked to literally says that's not the case. the way it works is that you upload your epubs to amazon and then they convert them from epub to azw3 for you and then allows you to download them to your device. not only is this a rube goldberg machine that doesn't support epub, it's been unofficially possible for years already by changing the extension from epub to png to trick it into thinking it isn't an epub when it is.

I’ve supported candidates who want to clamp down on private electoral financing (like the unfortunate @cantbuypaul) but the problem seems to be that in order for this to work, we’d need to elect a ton of these people, against the will of many lobbyists, and all at the same time (so they could be a large enough caucus to get a bill through).

Unfortunately, the only way the left (I chuckle at any conservatives/libertarians who claim to actually oppose corporate campaign finance) has managed to get people into congress is a couple people per election. People on the whole just aren’t in to campaign finance reform, even when it’s decoupled from the so-called “woke agenda”.

> You accept, sit on the table and the food arrives but to let you eat the food they ask you for your contact details address and a copy of you key for your home. You say, no thanks, would rather pay and they say no, it's only free meal in this restaurant.

The correct analogy would be if you ate the meal for free but didn't want to provide your contact information so they can upsell their catering services to your business in the future.

All they want is a contact information to sell you stuff in the future for not paying today. You can use a anonymous email address and hide your identity. But, since this is a Terminal emulator, there is always a risk of privacy.

This is all pretty obvious. The argument really is "I want to have this thing for free, but I don't want to give anything back including contact details to further contact me".

Well, then how do you suggest a good business plan for building a commercial product if not having some ability to contact your users?
Couple isolated data points upon further investigation/thought:

- This $100 million represents 0.19% of their endowment fund

These kinds of power law statistics describe sexual attraction and activity, but that selects for different characteristics than long-term relationships - where things like intelligence, honesty, reliability, etc., come to the fore.

I hadn't any meals. The autocomplete app doesn't work without my e-mail.

The contact details requirements are mentioned for the first time after install and just before start using the software, this creates a pressure to give my details. Probably that's the idea anyway(a dark pattern). This makes me trust them even less.
To play devil's advocate (?), I use them all the time at work, I could argue that it makes me more efficient. Easier to react with a thumb emoji and grinning emoji than than saying "thank you very much for that". However if I argue that it's not strictly true, I use them because they're quick yes, but I also thin they're fun too.

Edit - In the (?) I put a goblin and clipboard emoji to represent 'devil's advocate' but it got stripped out, if you were wondering what that was.

> online dating

That’s the problem. Online dating is a shitshow.

For every 1 match a man gets, the average women gets somewhere around 150 matches*. You simply can’t evaluate on anything but looks and basic surface-level traits (how each person responds to 3 random prompts).

How many short men interact with women regularly in-person and still have trouble getting dates?

* Seriously, google it. The ratio of accounts is around 10 men per woman, but lots of men swipe everyone and some men buy unlimited swipes, which is how it’s this bad. The average man gets something like 4 matches per week, while the average woman gets hundreds.

I actually did - a bunch of times back when UK was part of EU, and I didn’t have a EU passport myself.

Traveling to UK, permanent resident of Bulgaria (EU), Russian passport.

Border guard - “What are you doing in UK?”. Me - “Working on the clients premises and in their offices.” - “Sure come on in.”

All on tourist visas. Now I have BG citizenship there are no questions, but I wouldn’t think the sentiment is much different. As long as I’m not _employed_ by a company from the country I’m visiting, and stay a month or two, its fine, at least in the Europe. (I’m a contractor employed by BG company with clients in UK)

That looks great! Exactly the kind of tooling required to allow me to feel more comfortable locking up human readable data into a blob. Being a single Rust binary is just the cherry on top.

I might submit a few feature requests, but one that immediately comes to mind: csv -> parquet. Perhaps out of scope for the original vision, but having a single utility that could roundtrip data would be fantastically useful.

I had the same issue until i took the time to check out the docs and config it to my taste, it offers a fair amount of customization.

Yeah, kind of.

It's nice that it had color but it's too bad the color was ugly.

It's nice that it had sound but it's too bad the sound was ugly beeps.

Since they weren't constrained by CP/M compatibility, if they'd used a 6502 instead of the Z80, they could have delivered a hell of a lot more compute, and consequently better 3-D, at a lower price point. It's too bad they didn't do that. It's what the Apple ][, the C64, the Commodore PET, the Atari 2600, the Atari 400/800, the NES, and the Acorn System 1 did.

Sprites and tiles would have made it a hell of a lot easier to write games in BASIC (at least 2-D games), which is what a lot of us wanted to do with the machine at the time, and they also enabled things like the mouse pointer and mouse velocity slider in the C64 version of GEOS—which, incidentally, also suffered badly from the color clash problem, and was also ugly.

The Atari 800 also had BASIC in ROM (albeit in a plug-in cartridge) in 01979 and also had tiles and sprites. The TI-99/4 in 01979 also had sprites and 8×8 two-color tiles, inherited from the ColecoVision, and BASIC in ROM. The BASIC instruction manual, if it was the same as the TI-99/4A, taught you how to do animations by redefining characters in the pattern table. The Apple ][ and ][+, also in 01979, were the ones that were most similar to the Spectrum: they had BASIC in ROM and only 6 ugly colors in high-resolution mode (280×192) and no sprites, but 16 colors in low-resolution mode (a much nicer selection than the Spectrum's, but dependent on NTSC).

01979 was three years earlier than the Spectrum. Sinclair was trying to sell a personal computer with stripped-down 01979 graphics in 01982, 1½ Moore's-law cycles later. The Spectrum came out after the IBM PC and the CGA. You could run AutoCAD on those, though not until December.

Basically I think that hindsight shows that the Spectrum made some really bad technical choices on the Spectrum, and they kind of ruined the company. Sinclair could have been another Apple or ARM (another offspring of Sinclair Radionics) instead of another Amstrad.

This seems like a really slick idea.

Something I've always wanted is better multi-language documentation support. kLike suppose I have a c++ project that is integrated to python with pybind11. The python bindings may be the highlevel interface, but sphinx doesn't make it easy (as far as I know) to integrate python documentation generated from doc strings with c++ doxygen style briefs, especially in a way that lets you navigate seamlessly between the two.

I wonder if you have considered a use-case like this?
It is the sum of two ranges (magenta is the sum of red and blue lights): it also exists "outside", like the rest.

For that matter, not even "pinkish grey" is defined by simply a frequency (the hue is, the colour is not): the definition for this purpose was meant to be concise, not literal.
It sounds like you're trying to say something different than the comment you replied to. sin(x) for a range of x is trivial to draw by looking at earlier parts of the curve to determine what to draw next. Back in the slow 1980's home computer days, on machines without floating point and multiply/divide, we quickly got used to approximate sine waves numerically by simply typing out sequences of integers with a rough idea of the wave it'd produce. If you gave me a subset of such a sequence and asked me to complete it, I wouldn't need much of it to assume you were wanting to approximate sin.
