thanks, i really wanted to see a map of the trip!
> * Google is taking me on routes that are much less safe and more challenging

But you'll shave 30 seconds off your trip ... unless you miss the light, then it was a mistake.

The main problem is that a bunch of these route decisions really only make any sense at all if you are a very aggressive driver.
Have they gone against those on the left who advocate and even perform violence against certain groups? Why haven't they taken active stance against these monsters who want attack others?
I'm only really interested in learning a language if it excites me, or if I'm getting paid to do it. I don't hate Go, and would be fine to learn it on company time for company projects, but there is no spark that would lead me to learn the language on my own. I've written some basic Go, but if I'm using it in personal projects, I'd would have to invest time to understand the ecosystem, runtime, standard lib, best practices, etc.
Deleted mine last week. As I was hovering over that 'deactivate' button I had to ask myself why it was so hard to press that button? And then realized that that hesitation is called "addiction"... and pressed it because it was imperative that I do so. I'm in twitter detox. But mostly I feel a lot better being outside of the outrage machine.

I personally believe the 2A as intended by the founders was to protect against an orwellian government which is why it’s more important now than ever. Most recent example: Ministry of Truth. Who’s truth? Well whoever happens to be in power. This is called the rule of man not the rule of law.
I think that's entirely valid and happening before our eyes in this thread. But whenever I think like that, a second thought comes to mind: Why do you see the mote that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the beam that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the mote out of your eye,’ when there is a beam in your own eye? I find focusing on myself is a lot more productive and genuine to my frustration - it's usually, really about me.

But everyone who ever built anything good, from Newton to MLK to Norman Borlaug, were also humans and suffered from (and enjoyed) human nature.

I think a lot of tech companies are going to start seeing this as a big problem. When you are hiring regular rank and file engineers at 500k you blow through money really fast. We'll see if the bean counters decide that controlling payroll costs is worth having a harder time hiring.
If cabin presurization is lost, there will be no dangerous accumulation of CO2 period, because it leaks out through the non-airtight seal between the oxygen mask and your face. The emergency oxygen is more about providing a breathable partial pressure of oxygen (~0.2 atmosphere IIRC) when the total pressure is much lower than sea level, by greatly increasing the concentration.
My wife wanted the outback for that screen alone. A screen that large would probably make me feel less annoyed by the cramped maps in the dashboard mode.

Oh, I totally agree that Apple's traffic is solid. Google Maps seems more responsive to traffic. I will see Speed traps, bad traffic, etc come and go quicker on gMaps than Apple -- completely non scientific observations. YMMV

Cash flow and assets look pretty bad compared to total liabilities.

Also, the statement "our outlook has not changed" is very ambiguous.

Horrible numbers, truly. A business modelo that rises and falls in harmony with the Bitcoin/eth pricing, this cannot end well.

Oh, interesting. I just opened Maps.app on macOS after reading your comment, and the building shapes are finally there, at least in St Petersburg downtown?! The restaurants are mostly correct, too. Something must have changed recently. It wasn't this good even just a month or two ago.

Still no public transit, and still Apple-only (I use a Mac but an Android phone), so still useless for me personally, but it's nice to see it improve.

Though several years ago it was definitely just streets, parks, and rivers.
You left out that they were distributing the book to participants in math and science competitions, and that their reasoning was that they think the book is effective at teaching scientific reasoning. Donating science books to promising students sounds a lot better than distributing fanfiction.

You may disagree that HPMOR is effective at teaching science, but at least they did it openly. That page has a detailed discussion of the pros and cons of this grant, including the possibility that it could cause "reputational risk" (i.e. people like you making fun of them for it). AFAICT they took that seriously, and decided to do it anyway because they really do believe that it's effective at teaching science.
Agreed. The ability to support a cause for the greater good, even if some of it makes you uncomfortable, is just a sign that you’re not totally brainwashed by one “camp” or another, imo. It’s a symptom of retaining individual thought while working toward collective progress. It would be far more troubling to be part of a movement that operates fully in lock—step.

This being the internet, I feel the need to attach a disclaimer that there are limits to this general rule, but I don’t think the ACLU is currently crossing them.
>I'm doing a bad job of formulating tasks, and that this is a skill I need to get better at, but has anyone found success with hiring an assistant?

I would start with this point. Take some time, be it weeks or a month, and every time you come across one of your one-off tasks that you would love to delegate out, note it down.

Later on, try to document or at least bullet point those tasks into something more well described, workflow, deliverables, average time to complete, etc.

Once you have a stable of such tasks you can then condense them back down to a job description that will help your search a lot. I did this prior to hiring an assistant and it worked great. I had a list of tasks to post, and to discuss through the interview. I knew which programs I would be asking the interviewee to have experience in, and I had an idea for further tasks to be added to the workload if things worked out, which they did!

It's just as shallow (unless you're a Fidelity insider) to assume they went through a rational process and have a strong legal argument that they're upholding their fiduciary duty to account holders. Big companies make dumb decisions all the time, and financial companies especially when there's money on the table. So far Fidelity seems to be standing alone with this move. Putting 20% of your 401k into bitcoin as a regular person just seems so obviously unwise to me, and the US Dept of Labor seems to agree, so I'll stick by my comment and priors until I see more first-order evidence.
I miss the dislike button for one thing - the meta joke of the neutral response video from Futurama.

For years, it was always 50% likes and 50% dislikes. Since the dislike button no longer displays a number, the meta joke no longer displays. Sad days.

It's interesting that Democrats seem to general favor limiting corporate power yet are completely onboard with permanent bans.

It's useful to consider how this would have played out if large platforms were present during other parts of history. Many of the speeches given civil rights protesters incited some violence, often not the fault of the orator, but would it have triggered a ban?

It's easy to advocate for permanent corporate bans when the people on your side control the company, but will that always be the case? How will your stance change if the Murdoch family buys FB and bans anyone that posts about a BLM protest if it contains any violence whatsoever?

Vegetables don't contain retinol (e.g. real vitamin A) but beta-carotine, which isn't very efficiently converted to vitamin A by the body, and the ability to convert it varies as much as tenfold [0] from person to person. It's very likely that people that get an energy boost from retinol (e.g. a vitamin A supplement, or eating animal liver) wouldn't get the same boost from eating vegetables high in beta-carotene.

I would recommend eating liver, or getting a vitamin A supplement in addition to/instead of eating the vegetables mentioned above. Anecdotally, I notice a big improvement in my mood and energy levels when I consistently eat beef liver, despite the fact that I have a lot of high beta-carotine vegetables in my diet.

Nice (plastic) straw man argument that has absolutely nothing to do with sunscreen and it’s effects on juvenile coral reefs [1] and other highly sensitive ocean ecosystems. Comparing the two is disingenuous.

> outlawed plastic straws

I’m assuming you’re referring to Vancouver’s single-use plastics reduction legislation. It’s far too convenient to single out plastic straws and then claim it has done nothing when 1, it only went into effect in December 2021 and 2, it covered much more than just straws.

In New Zealand, Apple Maps is the worst kind of useless, especially when paired with Siri. The Dumb and Dumber of the tech world.

If I ask directions for a cafe within a 5km radius, either of these scenarios will occur:
1. Siri won't understand. Eg: Shelly Bay Bakery -> Directions to Shelly Bay.
2. Siri will understand and direct me to a cafe approximately 10,000 kms away, and then refuse to find me a suitable route.

Google Maps just works.
Windows would just have you open the file manager app when you need a file manager window. No need for the "app" to be always open. To Windows users, it feels extremely strange to have an app that's always open that you can't close.

Most of those web devs have fast workstations and fiber, so the sites feel responsive to them in testing. It's easy (but incorrect) to assume that your site will run well for everyone if it runs well in your environment.
They are trying to do everything:

- On-ramp for the masses (Coinbase)

- NFT marketplace (Coinbase NFT)

- web3 infrastructure (Coinbase Cloud)

- Debit card w/ crypto rewards (Coinbase Card)

- Crypto for businesses (Coinbase Institutional / Coinbase Custody)

Each of these is a huge undertaking, often across multiple different markets across the globe.
I'm having trouble thinking of a single example of a language, library, or piece of technology that is not either an acronym, a name of something that exists, or a combination of such names. Be it an object (Flask), a concept (Scheme), a letter (C), a person (Sinatra), or an animal (Python).

Maybe we need explicit namespacing in English? I'll start saying stuff like "programming languages colon colon ruby" so people can be absolutely sure what I'm talking about.

Google Maps has been showing traffic lights (and stop signs) on the route ahead for the last couple months – so I wonder if they will be shifting soon to a similar way of indicating upcoming turns.

This seems like the kind of thing that's great if the map data is extremely accurate, but far worse than the older style if there's any chance of mis-counting lights. Even hitting a glitch once (e.g. it says 2 lights when it's really 3) could hurt trust in the app's navigation a lot.
Speech inspires action. There is a lot of legally allowed action that can still cause plenty of harm, and speech can stimulate that action.

I don't have a solution, but we can't pretend that speech isn't much more powerful in today's society - if it were the profession "social media influencer" would not exist.

IMO we have systems today (social networks) that make previously unspreadable speech pathological by creating a brain-virus-spreading environment (which is why things go viral, literally). Furthermore the environment favors evolution towards short, poorly thought out, poorly reviewed, "engaging" (and enraging) yellow-press like content.
So you're saying I was less wrong! I knew it. ;)

There were several interesting businesses that shut down early 2020 that had an interesting approach to getting high quality business data: send actual people/dedicated staff to a neighborhood and document all the businesses!

Turns out, subject to actually having a working business overall, this gets you way higher quality location data.

I did not say you were debating the epistemological validity of a faith-based belief system, I said the discussion you've been having is epistemological in nature. These are different things, and the fact that you're misunderstanding this illustrates why you fail to grasp what others here have been trying to explain. You are making rudimentary mistakes in your thinking.
I've heard this argument before, but what if what ends up happening is that the MAGAs decide that they want to buy Teslas? Sure the MAGA tribe has made fun of EVs in the past, but if the tribe decides that they can own the libs by buying them they'll forget all of that.
Well, yes.

There's also Github Copilot, which pretty much replaced almost my entire usage of Stack Overflow.

But the thing is that with a rando package is that one doesn't have to review the code. Sure, the code is also coming from somewhere else. Sure, it might never get updated. Sure it might be full of bugs. Sure, it might be more dangerous than copying from StackOverflow. But out of sight, out of mind.

In the end the overuse of packages isn't about saving time or "doing the best for business" or "ensuring that the code is maintained by someone else". It's purely about covering our asses.
It's completely unnecessary, as it has been shown that general aviation planes can operate on mogas in almost every single propeller engine. Additionally, it costs more over the long run due to the maintenance costs (e.g. spark plug issues from lead build up when you sit at lower RPMs for taxiing).

I liked the stealth game as well. Work your way in a stealthy ship deep into Nullsec and do your thing - whether that thing is a bunny rabbit of a frigate designed to find and steal cookies and outwit the fox, or a stealth bomber that hides near the cookie jar to squash the unsuspecting.

> ID laws are discriminatory against the poor which is likely somewhat aligned with political illiteracy but through a correlation in our current system.

To get public services in the U.S. you need to have an ID, i.e. food stamps. It's a talking point that is not a real problem. Identifiers of who you are, are a requirement for free and fair elections. Otherwise, everyone just cheats and there is no democracy.

Further, everyone can get an ID, it costs $5-$10 in most states and most states will waive fees if you cannot afford it. Finally, if people can't get to a voting booth during a pre-designated, national holiday, then they don't care enough to vote. Even the homeless could make it happen, if they wanted to.

> A national voting day coupled with advanced voting would probably help our vote equality quite a bit and having the actual voting day be a holiday would likely discourage folks who'd rather spend a day at the beach.

The whole point of my statement was to present the argument (without judgement), the goal is to create a less equal and more discouraged voting system, bias towards those who actually care / follow politics. We want to limit it to the politically literate.
There's a lot of wrong ideas out there and we don't get people to have the right idea by shutting down discussion about it. I like your article better than Cory Doctorow's take, how's that for positive feedback? I'm sorry that it got flagged off the front page!

Absolutely and utterly fictional. Carbon credit schemes are a way to push cost off and allow for corporations to pollute.
Look at industrial pollutants and carbon is one of the least concerning. It's a political talking point why? Because lobbyists tell politicians they need it and hand them money.

Investigate a little deeper. You will find that the entire world must agree to participate for something like carbon tax to work... the world is not on board with hobbling industry
>On Mac, you can have an application open with no windows.

The exception to this is applications which can only display one window, such as System Preferences. Close that one window and the application will also be quit. As a lifetime Apple user dating to before the Mac, it's no issue for me, and I can understand the interface logic in play there, but to common users that logic is not apparent. I've seen plenty of average users who switched to Mac from Windows and they are usually baffled because to them the idea of "Xing out the last window" should always means the application is now quit.
> Furthermore, this makes you highly suspeptible to manipulation and abuse by less successful would-be authoratarians.

I'm not seeing the analogy here. What are the policies that "free speech" advocate want that are equivalent to "disable the fire alarm in a burning theater, block the exits, commandeer the sound system to tell people to stay in their seats"?
> It's nonstandard, we need no more of that on the web

Because sometimes it's not for standards to define how an app behaves in certain situations.

Do read about Media Engagement Index: https://developer.chrome.com/blog/autoplay/ Even MEI is basically "if user engaged with content on the site, then we allow certain things". And yes, it's also non-standard, and buggy, and poorly documented

The rest of complaints are about the complexities of figuring out user intent in the context of the browser. Yes, yes, it's extremely hard, and lies at the intersection of malicious actors, clueless users, and browsers trying to figure out what to do in the whole spectre in between them.

It could also be that the standard itself is badly designed (I don't know, I never read it), and didn't account for the complexities of modern web.

> Large websites got an exception

The comment above you stated "There's no whitelist AFAIK". you ignored that part, so I'm not sure where the "exceptions/whitelist" info comes from. If there's a whitelist, then yeah, it's a bad solution and shouldn't be there.

Ridiculously high packages- I left a premier hedge fund last year, and right as the ink dried on the paperwork for my new role, a friend called me who I worked with in the past that landed a high up role there running a big revenue generating piece of their technology org, and I was like bud, its been awhile, I have been very fortunate, you might not be able to afford me... and he blew me away with comp about 50% higher than I had just signed for, and it wasn't one of those its all stock that vests in 4 year things, it vested I believe quarterly, with no restrictions to hold further. We are talking comp around the 7 figure range. Huge numbers.
