In this case, what's the proper set of steps to level up your account so you can sell electronics?

I got my account banned instantly despite having a significant history as a guest buyer (with same email & delivery address) as well as an old account with a successful 4-figure sale that I ended up deactivating long ago.

Also, if selling electronics (or any other risky categories) is a no-go and an instant ban, why not just prevent posting such listings to begin with, or require additional verification upfront to deter malicious activity?
yes it is. it really is.

As GP said, by default, it's automatic, so there are no pre-defined "zones". But it can be scripted to do quite a lot of things.
> To perhaps save folks a click or three, $80K USD in 1989 is equivalent to $185K USD in 2022 according to:

Yeah, inflation adjustment doesn't really capture all the price changes. Healthcare and home ownership costs have gone up a lot more than inflation would suggest. For example In 1989 $80k would get you a pretty nice house in N. California, so this represents a lot more purchasing power than the "equivalent" $185k today, and significant disposable income would have been left over.
I’ve found it’s easier to outsource maintenance and harder to outsource creation of software. Cultural issues coupled with time zone changes are difficult to overcome.
There's also a HTML mechanism that lets you put expected hashes in for script resources etc and the browser is supposed to reject them, but of course because this isn't code signing, all the attacker needs to do is compromise the HTML and put in their own sabotaged hashes. Sigh...

So why not both? Reset loans and don't let the current system continue? Your argument is a weird one. It literally hurts no one to forgive the loans but a lot of people don't want to see and i think that's because those people who don't have student loans feel like they're losing an advantage.
Can anyone actually say what “mindfulness” really means?

I once met a mindfulness coach who was trying to sell me on his business where he comes onsite and coaches corporate clients on mindfulness. The pitch broke down when he couldn’t articulate to me what the hell was really meant by mindfulness.
These are only vaguely comparable. It’s like saying assembly language is a substitute for something elegant in Haskell.

Technically true in some sense, but not really.
Well said. It is disappointing to see such black and white thinking in discussion of the role of technology in daily life.

Do I think there is a real problem with how social media brings out the worst in society? Very much so. But that is almost entirely orthogonal to how I use the (frankly amazing) pocket supercomputer I now carry with me every day.

When I was a kid, mail back home when we lived overseas was a three-month round trip. A 15-minute phone call on Christmas was only possible by pulling a lot of strings. Nowadays? I can pull up a half-dozen webcams in the same neighborhood from literally across the globe.

We may be coming to grips as a world in how to talk to each other effectively, but I don't miss being cut off. Communication matters.
I'm not sure I understand the point about kwargs. That's a feature specific to python keyword params - what's the JS equivalent with ... here?
We do, but that would require the company to lie about what they are doing with the app. At Twitter's scale it's very possible that someone would notice and leak that.

The goal as I imagine it is to go from "Hundreds of Twitter employees can definitely access my messages today and anything I've sent and received up until now" to "Twitter will likely need to perform a MITM attack to read my messages starting from the moment when the attack was performed. Maybe they have a secret backdoor, but it's probably too valuable to use on my cat photos".
You can do it at the OS level with Preferences -> Keyboard -> Text tab -> Uncheck "Use smart quotes and dashes".
That's literally my case - it's not worth the hassle to sell small items as I can just keep them, but wanted to get rid of some bulky server & network equipment as it was taking up significant space (fairly niche & specialized, I can't imagine those having much malicious activity around them).
Good to know.

I was diagnosed with low VitD and they said I should take like 1k-2k, but I didn't feel much.
It's still asymmetric if you live in an expensive place compared to other places that have workers.
The problem with grouping people into advantaged and disadvantaged groups along lines of race and ethnicity is that you will end up grouping some people that are actually from a poor background into the "advantaged" group and vice versa. No matter how you put it, that just doesn't seem fair and I find it appalling that this somehow became acceptable in modern day America.
This would be amazing, please try releasing some of these blog posts :D

Is this really '4 days ago' as of 8-May-2022?

If it is, "Hello Sam!"
This is so subject to interpretation that it's almost meaningless. For example, consider the case of someone who takes up meditation and comes to the realization that they really hate their job. If they then quit their job and seek another position at the same or lower pay, are they being 'selfish'?

On the one hand, if they've bought into the notion that "we are all a family here" and that loyalty to their employer is like a familial obligation, and quitting their job is like abandoning an elderly relative on the street corner, then they may indeed be consumed by feelings of guilt and anxiety. Most observers would note that this is a false equivalency: the relationship between employer and employee is certainly not like that between parent and child.

One could likewise argue that quitting a job one hates is actually altruistic, as there are people who might like that job and if one's workplace is full of people who like what they're doing, it makes it a much more pleasant environment. Additionally, people who hate their jobs are known to take out their frustrations on family members, which is an unpleasant situation, so quitting a job one hates, even if it results in a somewhat lower standard of living, is not at all selfish - assuming one can find another job, and the end result is not poverty/homelessness.

Meditation would seem to be beneficial in any case. Some people don't even recognize that they hate their job as much as they do, and perhaps some internal reflection can suggest some changes that can be made to make the situation at least tolerable.

Incidentally, attempting to use things like guilt to motivate people to be obedient is a very unhealthy and Machiavellian tactic, and if 'mindfulness' helps people to break out of such situations, then the more the better.
> The notepad feature allows users to type, or use pre-written phrases to display text to others who don't know ASL. It's super unique to where it allows the Deaf user to dictate the text through active audio and video calls!

I'm really interested in this feature - I have no hearing impairment, but with most colds, I get extremely long-lasting & severe laryngitis to the point where I'm effectively mute for a month at a time afterwards (though this hasn't been an issue since the pandemic started because I've been in isolation and not gotten sick). Prior to the pandemic I was actually considering learning some ASL to be able to communicate when I have laryngitis but this seems like a much easier solution. For phone calls, I could have a brief preset message explaining the situation and that I will be typing my responses and using TTS, and then I'm able to use the phone again. This looks fantastic!

Are you planning to release an android version?
> But as time passed, I realized how our phone has become a real integral part of our bodies. It was a strange feeling.

I'm hardly a luddite and yet I don't give a crap about my phone.

I hardly ever take my phone with me: no need. Yesterday I had to drive to some unknown (to me) place (rural area) for a birthday party: wrote the address down, looked what the place looked like on google maps, then left the home and input the address in my car's navi system.

My phone is so old I don't even know which model it is. I think it's a Samsung S7, not sure. Don't care.

I have like two apps on it: google authenticator and some "scan to pdf" thing (where I take a picture of documents and it makes a PDF out of it).

To me a phone is an inferior, mediocre, computing device. It's only a "computer" in that it's more powerful than, say, a SGI workstation from the late 90s (or whatever) but it's mostly a piece of crap made to consume content.

I'm always wondering this: how many chip engineers are actually designing chips from their smartphone? How many car designers are modelling cars and parts on their phone? How many sound engineers are, say, remastering some great song from their phone? How many people who worked on, say, "Fantastic Beasts" did model the 3D animals from their phone? It's not just the input that sucks, but the output too: tiny screen, shitty sound.

In addition to being complete turds, phones are little surveillance devices tracking your every moves. Just screw that.

Now, funnily enough, the only time I really need a phone the dumbphone, pre- Nokia Symbian and J2ME apps (these were still dumb but a bit less dumb), I had in the late nineties would do: actual phone calls and SMS. I hardly need anything more.

I don't respect my phone: I treat it for the utter piece of junk and crap it is.

I think it's a sane approach. YMMV.

That may not be as true as you imagine. Entire factories, refineries, chemical plants, etc. were dismantled and shipped to china during the 1990's and 2000's. Once there, they were re-assembled and put back into production. I have met people who were involved in this work. The equipment did not get retired, it got sold.
Now, since gcc 4.7.4 is the last of the iso c++98 compiler written in simple C, it has to be maintained "officially" forever and the most recent gcc, at all time, must compile using it... until the next toxic mistake done by the gcc steering commitee or iso working groups (moving gcc to c++ was a massive mistake).
I've flagged this - it's some combination of ad and FUD.
> ...it's about formalizing and legitimizing power.

Again, power is a pervasive feature of any complex society. Do you pick formal and legitimized power, or power that's completely illegitimate and shorn of any formality?

> Making Peter Thiel a Duke isn't going to help.

If you have some sort of proceedings to make Peter Thiel a Duke, there might also be ways to strip him of his title for cause. Which might actually increase the public's collective power over acknowledged elites, and that without any resort to the more physical means you alluded to in your comment. After all, it would be more of a routine quasi-criminal sanction than a social revolution.
Exactly, last year's funding craze was laughable. We all knew it in the moment. Fast's rise and fall is exhibit A.

Whenever people worry about startups having trouble raising, I think they forget that most startups are trash. Now, fewer of the bad startups are going to get funding. The worthwhile startups will be fine, maybe even better with less noise in the landscape.

I imagine most of the startups that continue to thrive will be the ones that are well-funded by Tier 1 investors: https://topstartups.io/
> I've found that far less people in software understand and are curious about algorithms than there were 15 years ago, despite the fact that almost everyone studies them now for interviews.

I would argue people who prep with LeetCode aren't studying algorithms at all, they're doing something much closer to memorizing.

I've seen people who I assume did a bunch of cramming like that because they'll be like "oh this is [xyz]" and throw out a solution in a hurry, and then I ask them to modify it in a non-standard way, and it's almost as if the idea that an off-the-shelf regurgitation of the "normal" solution for a problem not being able to handle a modified scenario is something they've never thought about.

Like "oh this is a search problem" -> "what if [something that essentially boils down to the graph potentially having cycles]?" -> [head expodes instead of thinking about, say, tracking what nodes have already been seen]
You do, but I have consistently found that you actually hardly ever have to do that, if you keep them clean. Certainly way, way less than the manufacturer insists that you have to.

In any case, whether you agree with me or not about this detail, it's vastly less use of throwaway plastics, less use of metal, less energy use from manufacturing and delivering all that stuff, and of course, way cheaper.
I wonder how much of the startup investment market is "crypto" and related stuff. This is basically a ponzi scheme and so super susceptible to sentiment (most investors are just playing the greater fool theory and hoping to pump and offload, and will get our at the first sign of anything shaky). And the dollar values involved are absurd because pretend money.

I'd be more interested to see the numbers with that removed. Though of course maybe it's not as big as I think.
Download element.io, make an account somewhere. Matrix.org has a bridge for e.g. libera IRC, so you can use it like an IRC client with a free bouncer too for example.

Also since the protocol is http, a friend of mine lets his servers send him notifications about cronjobs by just curling an endpoint. Lots of things you can do with it.

> Everyone knows who the King and Duke are and what their means of power are.

This is only true in a limited sense. The single most important justification for the King's power has been his divine right: a doctrine of preordained power that no earthly force can usurp. This works pretty well on illiterate peasants who fear divine retribution, but the cat is more or less out of the bag on that front.

And note: that is the justification for power, which defines its perception. A king's true source of power has historically been his wealth (and therefore the size of his army and supporting court), or the support of extremely wealthy parties (churches, merchant classes, etc.). Every regent in history has gone to extraordinary lengths to keep the public from realizing that he is just a man, one whose wealth (and therefore power) can be taken.
This is not an example of p-hacking. P-hacking is when you test so many different hypotheses that some of them randomly happen to have low p-values.

A lot of them died, or suffered some horrible attack, unnecessarily. I don’t understand what the argument is here. We survived without antibiotics, but I sure wouldn’t like to have been seriously ill in a time without them.

I had the exact same issue a few years ago. Mine was closer to four hours instead of an hour. I was selling a phone for a relative. I received an email that the account was suspend and when inquired as to what was going on eBay told me that they had detected that I was trying to contact the buyer directly which was expressly forbidden by their policy. When I explained that I had no contact with anyone regarding the item they said they would reinstate the account and item. I told them that it was not necessary and asked that the account be closed. Ebay is a toxic shit hole. It doesn't matter if you are honest and looking to use their platform the way it was intended as Ebay the company will require you to wade into their toxic shit proactively.

About half the US lives in the eastern time zone - so if the product manager wants to talk to an Indian programmer at 430PM India time, he has to start the meeting at 730AM Eastern time. This is the most convenient time to have the meeting usually. Another 28% of the US is in the central time zone, but that just shifts this meeting to 830AM for the product manager. The working hours don't overlap. On top of various other problems.

Lots of countries don't even require citizens to own some special id card.

In my case (Austria, EU), when the police is required to check your identity, and if you aren't carrying some allowed form of identification (id card [most people don't have one around here, no one needs it but it costs as much as renewing your passport], passport [who carries their passport around, might even be expired], drivers license [you might not have one]) they have to follow you home or wherever an recognized identity document of yours may be (e.g. some people store them at a safe deposit box at a bank).

This is exactly my experience and I work at a very known tech company. As a manager I was told I can hire more people outside the US and was recommended to only hire in the US if I find someone who we really don't want to pass on. In other words, top talent would be OK, everyone else would have problems.

I actually don't call it outsourcing as people think about outsourcing as a way to get cheap labor in places like India or Eastern Europe. What I see happening is that companies are not looking for cheap labor. They are looking for talent and are not lowering the bar. They just prefer locations where they can afford that talent.

This pretty much nails it, though in my case I wasn't a child.

In my early 20s I lived in Japan for a few years. Early on, before I had a phone of any type (let alone a smartphone), it was incredibly stressful – even though I had studied the language prior to arriving, it wasn't enough to handle more than the most basic situations and trying to meet and coordinate with others was a nightmare. If anything deviated from the plan, including me getting lost somewhere along the way, it all fell apart.

After having been there for a couple of months I got an iPhone 3GS and it was transformative, even though things like map apps were nowhere near as good as they are now (for example, all the location names were still in Japanese even in the English version of the app, and couldn't handle transit instructions). With it I felt much more confident in going places and doing things. Being able to text or be texted, "hey I'm going to be late" or see where I am on a map instantly such a huge thing.

This effect isn't going to be strong in one's own country of course, but it's still going to be there whenever visiting an unfamiliar area.
The Airtable table has a UX quirk that I find rage inducing.

When I click on a column header to sort the data, a "sorted by 1 field" dropdown opens and covers the top rows of the newly sorted data. Then if I click the x in the corner of said dropdown, it removes the filter (and doesn't close the dropdown). Clicking outside of the table doesn't close it either, since the table is embedded.
The strategies for the first steps out of poverty are different from strategies to rise within the middle class. So they're mostly not known by people who aren't poor.

For example, many government aid programs are (intentionally) obscure. Signing up for food stamps is so complicated, there's a charity that just helps people do it (https://www.mrelief.com). And there are plenty more strategies that help people, like for making cheap nutritious food. Any of these can be taught.
I went to buy something on eBay and found that my account had been suspended. I have never sold anything on eBay. However, I had signed up for an eBay developer account and then never used it because the client who I was exploring it for went another direction. So I thought maybe it was related to the unused developer account. The support person couldn't really tell me anything but said I could contact some part of support for an appeal so I asked that they send me an email with that process. They said yes, our chat is automatically emailed to me. But no email followed up that support experience.

Very poor support. No explanation and action including actions that are promised on their support page.
