I want to like the One Blade, but they've locked up the system tighter than printer cartridges.

It definitely gets a close shave, and it's my go to for traveling, but I just can't stomach paying like $22 CAD for a tiny blade.

Sorry to break this, Roku is about as bad for ad data sharing / tracking: https://advertising.roku.com/advertiser-solutions/oneview - any time you hear things like ‘full funnel attribution’, there is a good amount of adtech in the background.

I have a weird combination of skin type and hair. My skin will inflame if I use an electric razor, even using a cheap 2 layer razor will make me itch and scratch for a week. The two things that do work are shaper electric ones (can't get a close shave with that) and 3 blade cartridge ones. Thankfully I can get away with rarely grooming completely, just use the shaper.
This is true for anywhere outside of a select few Western countries, most of the world's population still identifies along ethnic lines. Actually many in the West do too although it isn't official policy in these countries and has become taboo to say it out loud. But a lot of people still think it nonetheless.

Anyway, it's not really Japan specific. I'm not sure why people always say this about Japan when other Asian countries have an even lower immigrant population. In Taiwan it's just over 1%. In Mainland China it's even much lower. Korea has slightly immigrants than Japan but it's no where near levels of Australia or the US. There's a weird obsession with Japan in Western countries and Japanese culture and politics often get stereotyped without people actually understanding much about it. The assumption that it's unusual for a country not to have (uncontrolled) mass immigration is in itself an amusing one to me.
I’ll add my support for electrics too.

I shave my head as well as my face, and I’ve only gone through two razors in 15 years. I’m only a couple years into using the second one.

The first one I actually broke down, cleaned, and partially repaired several times. I replaced wiring that had corroded and had to replace small parts. I suppose I might be on my third by now if I couldn’t repair stuff.

They do the job quickly and make it so a regular razor is easier to use if you want that close of a shave. I rarely care that much because the electric gets almost indiscernibly close by my standards

How do you live your day where 7 seconds is a a significant amount of time?
Yeah people talk about being a doctor like it's a great and prestigious job. No you get paid a basic salary to work 60 hours, and it's all on-site, unsocial hours, in grim buildings, with little choice about what you do.

Not a huge deal, but this "exits" when you have a change to a directory. So you end up having to put the whole thing in a while loop.

I totally agree on this and I would like to add an item:

- glass smartphones - the iPhone X and Pixel 3 are all in a unibody of glass that is very fragile despite all gorilla glass marketing bullshit.
The result is that we have to use plastic bumpers.

This is what I’ve been doing. I own high dividend yield stocks with a bit of leverage. I also sell call options against the position for more income. If the stock gets called away I sell put options to buy it back. This is called “the wheel” or triple income strategy. Of course you need to find the right stock and sell the right options. Works great when it works. For true passive though you would need to simply collect dividend with no leverage. Set it and forget it. Of course, depending on your lifestyle this can require lots of capital
I’ve worked on a Singapore website sponsored by the major University and a Govt. office and frankly speaking, it’s a poorly managed process dominated by IT protocol more than business/client goals. The admin responsible for running the site was inept and his colleagues were worse. The person who inherited managing the complex web stack was a secretary with no dev skills. I hope it works out for them, but I’m not optimistic.

More than a country, I'd say the Japanese are a nation, see meaning #4 of the definitions below. I think America (the US) is nation only in sense of meanings #1, 2 and 3 which are synonyms of country.

country
kŭn′trē
noun
1) A nation or state.
2) The territory of a nation or state; land.
3) The people of a nation or state; populace.
4) The land of a person's birth or citizenship.
5) A region, territory, or large tract of land distinguishable by features of topography, biology, or culture.
6) An area or expanse outside cities and towns; a rural area.
7) The people of a district who are eligible for jury service.

nation
nā′shən
noun
1) A relatively large group of people organized under a single, usually independent government; a country.
2) The territory occupied by such a group of people.
3) The government of a sovereign state.
4) A people who share common customs, origins, history, and frequently language; a nationality.
5) A federation or tribe, especially one composed of Native Americans.
6) The territory occupied by such a federation or tribe.
Example in "Early 1970s" is notoriously bad.

Text says: "it would be given some number of filenames as command line arguments, and it would read those ... Options didn’t exist".

Example shows: unneeded usage of `cat` as if `wc` is non-standard utility and cannot process file names by itself, option for `wc` is used. It contradicts text in both ways!

Ever since I somehow managed to lose my driver's license between the private car that dropped me off at the airport and the door to the airport, I always use another government ID I don't actually need for anything (Global Entry) while going through security.

I also usually carry my passport as a backup though that probably won't work if I need to rent car--and on that particular trip it was a last minute overnighter so I didn't throw in my backup documents and cards folder. It took me about half an hour to convince the hotel to let me check in.

In general, I hate traveling with things that you really can't afford to lose and can only mitigate against loss to some degree.
>What if you count having to view ads, and having the tv spy on you as a cost?

I don't connect it to wifi, problem solved.

>for many TVs you can just not connect to wifi, but how long until the TV won't work unless it is connected?

Is there reason to believe that it won't work? The "smart" TV I have hasn't been connected to wifi for years and still works.

>Perhaps a better argument is that a bad software can brick the TV, or the components of the smart functionality break in a way that prevents you from using it as a dumb tv (i.e. it has more "moving parts")

I don't get it, are you trying to have your cake (smart functionality) and eat it too (smart functionality randomly breaking stuff)? If you use it as a dumb TV from day 1 I can't imagine why it would randomly break later.

>and if you don't use the smart functionality, then it is a waste of the materials to make those components, and probably electricity running through the circuits

The nvidia shield TV uses 6W while streaming. Presumably the smart TV component probably uses something similar or less than that. In the grand scheme of things it's nothing.

>And it isn't too hard to imagine a future where the tv just stops working if it can't phone home.

That's seems to be more of a theoretical concern than something that's actually happening right now.
I would change this to:

1. Find a profitable niche
2. See if you could market to said niche in a way where you have an unfair advantage.
3. If yes to 2, market and sell the product before you have it to ensure demand
4. Build the product.

Unless things have changed over the last few years, I think having 8/16 is a bit of an overkill for an OS this restricted. It says they all have 15W TDB but I'd hope that's just the just max they have been configured to work at. Hence me thinks even the 4/8 5425C should be plenty for web browsing and running android apps for many, many years.
Agree with everything you say except that the post didn't mention non-cryptographic hashing algos that can be driven that hard. xxHash[1] (and especially XXH3) is almost always the fastest hashing choice, as it both is fast and has wide language support.

Sure there are some other fast ones out there like cityhash[2] but there aren't good Java/Python bindings I'm aware of and I wouldn't recommend using it in production given the lack of wide-spread use versus xxhash which is used by LZ4 internally and in databases all over the place.

Basically everything in the UK needs reform as far as I'm concerned.

The younger generation is staring at their overworked and over-stressed parents asking themselves what the point is. More of them are taking less stable NEET jobs over big corporations in order to get more flexibility with regards to a work-life balance, and they aren't spending that extra time dating.

Worse, I was watching the Japanese news (~6 years ago) which had a discussion where an economist pointed out that while wages have stagnated since the late 1980's, base taxes have gone up from 2.5% to 22%. The younger generations now have elder parents asking why they aren't being taken on trips around the world like they supported their parents, and the answer is simple: no one can afford it, let alone afford to have children.
Does the reflection of a natural process excuse behavior that’s wrong? Do we simply throw up our hands and say “boy nature sure is a bitch, a shame we’re powerless to do anything about it?”

No, I think not. Rising above our base nature is a task all humans should engage in. I’ll admit it seems that the ideals of Enlightenment are dying out, but surely we must fight against that with every ounce of our will, lest we descend back into another dark age?
>You cannot influence without being influenced.

Why not? China has massive influence in many countries, and they seem to retain a lot of their culture while suppressing any internal change/dissent. It would seem to me that many European countries have simply decided they would like to be influenced for whatever reason, not that they are compelled to by some universal rule.
There used to be some good intercity trains from Brussels via Luxemburg to Strasbourg (Iris and Vauban), but they were cancelled in 2016 because of the TGV Est Paris-Strasbourg. It's a bit long for a bus ride really, especially when you'd want to work during the ride.

Edit: oops, this is about Frankfurt-Strasbourg. (Sorry, I mixed it up with some other fairly recent reporting.) That's really hard to justify: there are high-speed trains doing that route in 1h50, and a non-stop one could do it even faster.
Out of all materials for pans, stainless is definitely the worst choice for eggs. Maybe carbon steel too if still unseasoned.
> I wouldn't try frying eggs in a cast iron, for instance (technically you can, but it requires an absurd amount of oil).

You’d be surprised. I have a Lodge cast iron pan I fry eggs in regularly. A tablespoon of butter is enough for three eggs, and only occasionally is there a spot or two that sticks.

The trick is heat. High heat causes them to unstick fairly quickly, to the point where I can typically just shake the pan to release them in their entirety.

That said I haven’t tried to scramble eggs in cast iron. I suspect this would not work nearly as well.
I used a double-edge for years. Then I tried Harry's and was amazed.

More between DE and cut throat, leaning very heavily towards CT. Experimenting with one now: not a lot of margin of error with regards to technique as there is with DE.
That's fair.

Unfortunately in the UK at least, the question of "how come student doctors can't afford rent when we give 25% of tax receipts to the NHS" it's too close to criticism of the NHS, a secular heresy.
You're struggling with your current income? I guess that means there's more going out then coming in? Any income would solve that. Or cutting costs, which might work even quicker.

If you want passive income without any type of upfront work, you might look into renting stuff out that you possess. House? Why not rent a part to someone? A car, or other tools? Maybe you can rent them to somebody.
Isn't Twitter already doing most of this? Why does he think he can do so much better?
CC-0 is designed to be equivalent to placing copywritten work in the public domain (there are jurisdictions that do not have a legal structure for public domain).

There are all sorts of other licenses of course and if CC-0 doesn't meet your needs, talk with your lawyer because any restrictions you want to enforce will require lawyering up to enforce. There are no "gnu police" and MIT an BSD don't enforce the MIT and BSD licenses.

Good luck.

If you're in a first world country with proper garbage disposal, those k-cups most certainly aren't contributing to the problem of microplastics. Where I live they basically get landfilled. Kind of hard for that to end up in my veins when they're buried underground.
It’s likely not that vast. Human character and motivations are pretty simple.
The person you're arguing with was simply saying "throwing psychedelics at the car window at homeless people won't make them better". They didn't say "lock up the homeless for using mushrooms", he didn't say "homeless people don't deserve treatment".

They were calling out the simplistic nature of the OP comment, and asserting that proper use of psychedelics for medical treatment involves a safe, controlled environment.

Nothing they said or were asserting had to do with US drug policy.
You didn’t support it at all:

Your entire argument is “an authority told me so!” and from there you treat it as an article of faith.

You’re also ignoring that more people has led to less poverty and the current world is the richest it has ever been — ie, the data which shows more people is good. Global hunger has precipitously fallen, as we’ve had more people and richer nations capable of more aid.

> In Japan and other developed countries population is decreasing naturally, let's just let it instead of panicking.

It’s decreasing as a result of policies chosen which stress the young and cause them not to breed — saying “well, less people is good, so let’s keep the abuse!” is monstrous.

Action against climate change is urgently needed, so please don’t get angry at anybody trying to bring it about.

But there is a definite problem with a demand for personal action, it is both ineffective and usually hypocritical like in the way you suggested.

We absolutely need to demand that all companies and institutions get to carbon neutral or negative status in the products or services they offer.

Every individual can do their part if they want but that’s mostly to feel good, any real progress can only come from the goods/service providers fixing their offers (and that might need all sorts of legislation and incentives to get going, whatever it takes).
I develop Unread (https://www.goldenhillsoftware.com/unread/).

I have some complex logic to find a hero image that is sometimes in a feed entry outside the HTML, and prepend it to the top of the article -- but only if there is not another reference to that image in the article. It is complicated because sometimes there will be hero-image.jpeg in the article and hero-image-1200x500.jpeg outside the article, and I have to judge whether the images are the same.

I am in favor of embedding the image into the HTML, and not adding it elsewhere.
