There should be a law for this. The EU as an open banking API law, that requires banks to make this data available electronically over an API.

The US needs an open banking law. This should not be an optional feature for banks to offer. It should be an absolute requirement.

I think it's insane to enter your credentials into Plaid. Almost every banking agreement I've ever seen disclaims liability if your account is breached because you shared your password. So, if you share your password with Plaid, and Plaid is breached, and someone uses your banking credentials to drain your account, I think a bank could wash their hands of it and walk away in that situation.

I'm sure the Plaid engineers are great, and that their data is stored securely (and maybe they don't store the password at all in there systems). But I'm not willing to bet my entire bank account on them being perfect.
I suppose how likely it is to scale massively.

Lawncare business = not a startup.

Intel have talked about future processes in terms of Angstroms (0.1µm), but for some time it's not been a real measure of size, just a marketing term. Intel has actually dropped the units and now calls their process nodes Intel 7, 4, 3. Apparently they plan to use 20A after that in reference to the Angstrom, although as before, not because they are actually measuring anything to that specific size.
Not possible, obviously.

But in a hypothetical scenario where process shrinking continued unabated by considerations such a particle size and uncertainty, a negated logarithmic scale would do for naming conventions.

gen = offset + log(1/feature_size)
Uncharitable and inaccurate comment. Most police officers do a good job and risk their lives and livelihood enforcing the rule of law. Disparaging a profession because of a few highly publicized bad apples is causing police forces to stand down and violent crime to rise. Comments like this are fueling the defund the police movement and are why many cities are revisiting the crime waves of the 70s and 80s.
I'm going to be honest, the only real way the government is going to be able to fight these 'monopolies' is slowly and surely funding alternatives, and implementing a few general regulations here and there that impede them

these giant overly scoped anti-trust pushes will probably go no where and are to easy to fight
I have never ever heard of a bank requiring you to close your account and reopen at another branch. Are there additional details?
At most of the big corp.

Somewhere in my employment letter it says, you are representing company outside of workplace and work hours as well (that is in personal life too).

Efficient remote desktop. Won't happen, ever. Simply cannot happen.

Blits from offscreen to onscreen surfaces bypass the compositor, so it can't implement them as RDP commands and instead has to push the whole image across the pipe every time.

This is why xorgxrdp is so crazy fast and responsive compared to every single Wayland RDP server.

I use sway (a Wayland compositor) on all my machines. But all of my headless machines run xorgxrdp because there is nothing in the Wayland world that is even close. This is a fundamental problem with Wayland that cannot be fixed until there is a perspective change on the Wayland committees. Sending surface-to-surface-copy commands through the compositor clashes with their worldview, but without it we will never have decent remote display -- even (as they say) as "the task of a higher-layer protocol".
I can’t wait to pick up a cheap GPU on ebay after the PoW switch.
In addition, Tesla has dropped a feature from autopilot, without making any mention of it in the sales process or manuals. This happened before with the voice recognition operation falling out of sync with the manuals.

However, the AP, formerly, in less advanced cars, allowed the car to change lanes with a simple operation of the turn signal -- all the while, maintaining position in the new lane, and adjusting for traffic aware cruise control. Now, the '22 model S, at least, you are forced to deactivate autopilot with a lane change. I'm now starting to think that there is no specification for autopilot, and every model year it will operate differently (worse) than prior model years.
OSL can read both younger and older than the true age, depending on the error sources. Modern labs will usually apply a correction to deal with underestimation as well.
Where does the wealth go when asset prices go down? It vanishes into nothingness
The election of Donald Trump was clearly a white nationalist backlash. This is obvious and it was an enabling event for more extreme elements of white nationalism. One only needs to look at the rhetoric used to see this. Don’t confuse “white nationalist” with “white supremecist” (though the latter is a subset of the former).

The underpinnings of white nationalism have been around for a while but really came to the fore in 2016. The desire to keep “our America” and other catch phrases are indicative.

EDIT: Having white, nationalist sentiments or leanings is not necessarily bad or wrong. It’s quite natural for a majority population to have such sentiments when their status as a majority gets threatened. The demographics and gender power structure of the nation is noticeably changing and having a backlash against that change is common.

I got blasted by a college-aged girl who was driving ~50 MPH through a red light at 11PM early this year. I credit the Tesla safety systems for my lack of physical injuries.

Mentally though, a whole other story. Apart from the witness who was behind me (who was crying and shaking as she approached my car from the trauma of seeing the impact), it didn’t seem like the police or any bystanders gave a shit beyond getting the accident cleared out. I was expecting them to sobriety test her or be ticketed or something, but she hid in her vehicle until her parents showed up and that was that.

It was three months until insurance paid out, and we amassed a couple grand worth of debt in rentals so my wife could get to work. That one is on me for not getting the rental coverage, I won’t make that mistake again next time.

All this to say, I am certain that driver is back on the road and won’t face any consequences other than a more expensive policy. Just infuriating.
An Egyptian expedition sailed all the way around Africa, starting at the Red Sea and returning via the South Atlantic, taking three years. They reported the sun on their right as they rounded the Cape, which was taken as proof of fabrication, to the ancients.

Egyptians achieved a great many impressive things, over millennia, the overwhelming majority of which we have little or no record of.

>the cult itself is a shady organization with some bad people

my impression is that all those cults/churches - like for example LDS, scientology, masons, etc. - have favoring of business dealings with fellow members, be it hiring, promotion, supply and service contracts, etc. among the basic tenets of the cult/church.

The amount of nepotism in that group described in article is really nauseating. We had a senior engineer who was a spouse of an exec, and it was already making tremendous obstacles to the work - the managers and the director were tip-toeing around that engineer, it was borderline disgusting. Anyway didn't help - the director and thus the managers under him as well as several top engineers - the whole top of the house of cards of our department :) - were promptly gone the moment the director had disagreement with that engineer. In another team a young hothead guy got in disagreement with another spouse of another exec, and was immediately gone as a result. I can't really imagine how screwed the environment would be in the situation like that Google GDS - probably very suffocating and bordering on mental abuse for anybody who isn't a member of that cult.
I think you are taking the Lindy effect too seriously.

You basically only know one thing about something, which is how long it has been around. The things that come to life and die that you observe will be, on average, in the middle of their life.

So if something has been around for five years, given no more information, your best bet is that it'll be around for another five years.

One year? Another one year.

Hopefully this explains well why the Lindy effect also says that something that's been around for a shorter period of time is more likely to disappear sooner.
That's precisely the kind of comment we'd expect to read from a (motivated) bad actor. </sarcasm>
if it's not to personal, what kind of legal BS might someone throw at an estate and how would the bank protect against that?
My mother, who is now in memory care due to Alzheimer's, knew long ago what was in store for her (her mother and one of her sisters also had it) and planned accordingly long ago. She has a simple but comprehensive will...and most importantly at the moment, two powers of attorney that give the designee (me, in this case) control over both her medical/daily living decisions and her financial decisions. The weeks surrounding the day the doctor activated her power of attorney were hectic, but far easier than they would have been without her prior planning.

She'd also made my sister and I co-owners on her bank account, so we had no difficulty accessing money for her care in the short term.
The intentionality it carries is the problem. A lot of the problems in discussing evolution with (amongst other things) religious is the literalism they routinely apply to this meaning.

> Performance only goes downhill from here if the function does more work,

Should be the opposite. Overhead as a proportion of total time goes down the more useful work is involved.
for carbon-based systems, most probably, it just the emergent properties of the continuous status of just to keep ourserfelf wel fed.

But don't understimate the difference between knowing what something is,and actually to be in that state. Living the life.
Is Walking Cardio?
Just like the people making 125k but refusing to leave an expensive city are "forced" to live paycheck to paycheck.

You could argue ANYONE making 100k is "choosing" to live paycheck to paycheck.. they could move to Thailand and live comfortably for $1500/month, but they _choose_ to only live in countries where they don't have to learn another language, or leave their family... So we're arguing over what people can reasonably expect from life, and for many, a kid is in that just as much as living in a city.

If we NATURALLY had a kid, most people would argue that $1,500-2,000/month in daycare costs is a forced expense, but because we have not been successful naturally have kids, $1,500-2,000/month to have a kid we want is a choice?
We do that at home - automatically wire a fixed amount, weekly, off of the margin account. All incomes get deposited in the margin account and invested. During the first half of the year, I max out most contributions that I can at work and end up with many 0$ take-home paychecks. The margin loans help us smooth out that period while keeping a steady, stable and frugal weekly "paycheck" to ourselves. As the year progresses, the margin loan gets paid back and then we grow our investments.

I used to do this automated wire transfer twice a month, but switched it to weekly as it's harder to run out of money this way. And the amount we wire to ourselves is just enough to do groceries, pay bills, eat out every now and then, be happy, but not decadent.
> How exactly?

You missed the first sentence of my comment, then?

> Or maybe because Musk fails to be a role model? Are they kids, or grownups?

He's a petulant manchild, now that you mention it, a horrible role model for the company, its leadership on down. Is he fit to be a CEO, if he can't act like one?
I believe that's called a "monolith" and it's quite popular, especially in pretty much every traditional enterprising company.
Unfortunately, I have a Pixel. I will try a white noise app though, good thought. Based on my reading it is the receiver doing the power saving, or whatever, not the phone, so this may work!
> ... a brand-new restaurant, which opened an hour ago, is most likely to shut down one hour from now.

A new restaurant that opened one hour ago existed for months during its planning stages. That restaurant will probably not survive its first few months of business.

> Why does size matter in this context?

Size matters in anti-trust law as the larger a company is, the more market power it has, and therefore more ability to have anti-competitive effects on the market.

> but if some random Android company does the same thing..... why are they not punished?

Because in standard anti-trust law theory, the same exact action done by a smaller company is legal, but can be illegal if done by a larger company.

The reason being that a smaller company is unable to anti-competitively control an entire market as well as a larger company can.

> as a consumer I'm equally harmed

Anti-trust law does not agree that consumers are equally harmed by a large company, with more market power, engaging in anti-competitive practices as compared to when a smaller company, with less market power, does the same.

As in literally yes, according to the law, certain actions are only illegal if a large company does it, and literally yes a smaller company is allowed to do the same exact thing simply because they have less market power.
Serious answer: you’re really bad at practical reasoning.
The biggest issue I've come across with some documentation is that it comes across as too "academic". Yes, it's very detailed, but doesn't immediately answer a very specific question.

One good example is the Angular documentation. It's very detailed, but rarely does it answer the question I have. Reading the documentation just leaves me with more questions than I started.

Of course, I will say this. I don't come from an OOP background, so maybe that's why it doesn't immediately click.

The other problem with documentation is lack of examples. That's why for command line help, I use tldr. 90% of the time, it gives me an example of the exact command I need.

Believe me, I get the whole RTFM and for things I plan to use often enough, I will definitely RTFM. But for rarely used commands, it does not make sense to spend even 10 minutes reading arcane documentation. It's much more efficient to skim a blog or two (or use something like tldr), find the command with the switches and copy pasta. The prevalence of these blogs in the results show others think the same way or there wouldn't be so many of them.
That’s fine, but applications that can efficiently do that are slowly disappearing in favor of direct hardware acceleration, with software rendered offscreen rendering as the fallback, so those days are quite numbered now.

That said, the best way to go in the future is probably going to be something more like waypipe.

Some people are in tech because they want to build technology ethically and responsibly, not to maximise the stock price at all costs.

GH has no evidence this was not exploited. They just didn't log enough things to know if it was exploited or not.
> No need to memorize different shortcuts for each kind of screenshot. Just a single shortcut to enter screenshot mode

You don't need to memorize any shortcuts on macOS to take a screenshot. Just open up "Screenshot.app". It's in /Applications/Utilities/

That's a single entry point to all of the screenshot features as well.
> It seems very much to me as if Musk doesn't know what he is doing.

Teslas are ever more in demand, with wait times extending to a year. They are the highest selling EVs in the world by a large margin and they make the highest margin on EVs they sell, while others are losing money and stopping production (latest of which is Ford Mache E).

He knows what he's doing.
I thought this was going to about pranks

My favourite:

Take a full screenshot of your coworkers desktop - icons and everything. Include the taskbar.

Now rotate the screenshot left

Now set the taskbar to auto hide and rotate the screen settings (either on your monitor or the computer) to the right

Set that screenshot as your background

If you do it right it will LOOK like a normal desktop with taskbar and everything but the mouse will run in reverse and nothing of course will work well.
What does small business mean?
My reaction when I discovered these shortcuts as a Mac user coming from Plasma was the same as yours, 'what a bizarre, undiscoverable way to do things'.

When macOS finally got a flexible screen capturing app (now bound to Cmd+Shift+5) Mac users were rightly very pleased. But we'd had that as the default, highly discoverable behavior on Plasma for more than a decade, and the equivalent on Windows was already old news, too.

Maybe it was just hyped too much, and maybe the similarities to Linux just put it in a sort of uncanny valley for me that spoiled what could have been fun. Maybe it was the pressure of trying to learn an OS while onboarding at a new job that stopped me from learning macOS at my own pace that really drove my frustration. But I was left feeling very disappointed by the much fabled UX and design of macOS.
Every university vet-med program in the country probably has people working on FeLV. You can Google for this: ["university" "veterinary medicine" "felv" "lab"].

Silicon Photonics: The Next Silicon Revolution?
I have several friends who work in antitrust consulting. My understanding from listening to them talk is that monopolists are defined with respect to a market, and defining the relevant market is a task in itself. Surely the defining characteristic of a monopolist is that it has a high proportion of the market share for a given market, and it is not required that the market in question be large? You can have a monopoly over a small market.
Elon isn't the founder of Tesla, he's the CEO of Tesla. I'm pretty sure Henry Ford isn't Ford's current CEO.
Macromedia/adobe went from an in house basic simple scripting engine to full javascript bs which killed performance and bloated the entire plugin. Full jvm is more flexible to code but terrible for usabilty and eficiency. This was pre v8. V8 basically saved js but it was too late to save flash.
Duh. Carbon offsets were created by Big Oil to put the blame of pollution at the feet of the consumer instead of themselves for not investing into producing a cleaner product.
There you go. Mozilla also knows it and the CEO has admitted it.

They are essentially on life support. A joke to achieving their mission statement without being dependent on their anti-privacy foe's money and are the weakest counterweight to big tech.

Those numbers are far too low, probably by two orders of magnitude or more.

To get a feel for the actual statistics, a very useful trick I came across on a Porsche forum is to look up the model on cargurus.com. E.g.:

https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/inventorylisting/viewDetailsFi...

Note the number of listings (401 nationwide listings for the Taycan at the moment) shown in the 'Filter Results' area. Scroll down to 'Vehicle History' and note the availability of the option to 'Hide vehicles with Lemon History Reported.' Next to that is a number reflecting how many used cars of a given make/model have a lemon title out of the set of cars currently for sale. With a 25:401 ratio, it can be inferred that almost 6% of used Taycans on the market were bought back by Porsche at some point.
>She got pissed and just told me tell her who to vote for.

This sounds like so many zoomers I've encountered on the internet. "Just tell me what to do". There's just so much information in their world they don't cope well with the uncertainty.

I remember voting for the NDP at about age 18. I really believed that investing tax money in people who were in need was the most important investment we could make. I really thought that perverse incentives and corruption would be negligible. The Liberals won in our riding. We do FPTP in Canada, so my vote didn't really change anything. Then I voted Libertarian a couple years later, to send a heartfelt message that "I like freedom". Of course they were even less likely to win than the NDP.

Both times it was like a roller coaster, or a lottery, to form my underdeveloped opinion, wait in line, identify myself, give my papers, and later find out my chosen party didn't win. Your daughter missed out.
So to express your perceived degrading of the struggle of poorer people, you figured the best approach was to take exception of their attempts at having children. You could also have taken a pass. You weren't forced to comment, you made that choice.
im the top 1% in my country (third world...) by income. working for an Israeli company. When i read those 6 figure numbers for similar positions i have (can do better probably, hire me!!!!), my eyes get glossy (and tear up a bit). 6 months of your paycheck would solve all my problems and allow me to work on my dream projects.
