Eating blueberries and watching the world burn are not inherently bound to each other.

Put another way, it is possible to enjoy blueberries while working to solve big problems.

Going a step further, intentionally avoiding blueberries (assuming you enjoy blueberries and they are sustainable) seems like actively/unnecessarily squandering an opportunity to enjoy life.

Progress and enjoying life are not mutually exclusive. To suggest that they are is a good way to scare people away from the former, or conclude it’s not worthwhile.

Editing to add: In all of the focus on blueberries, the broader point was lost - that we have better access to fruits/vegetables than we've had in the past. This is a big deal, and has a major impact on health. This does not reduce the importance or severity of climate change, and does raise questions about how sustainable that easy access is.
I transferred money for free in less than 1 second today using ‘legacy’ payments.

The currency I used to do so also didn’t decline or rise in value by 5% in a day, which would have been awkward.

It doesn’t matter to me if banks exchange csv files at midnight to settle that, or what other archaic processes they use, because the verified identities and trust allow that to seamlessly happen behind the scenes without involving customers. The end user experience is all that matters here.
Impressive. The usefulness of this kind of device is probably completely distinct from what you'd get with anything coming from Apple or Meta. Purely functional sight augmentation. Looks they're going for the sight-impaired market first, but I can imagine some uses in industry or military too.
The one that really threw me is that American country music is very popular in France.

I have never been, so naturally I am sure my view of the place and the people is skewed.
When I had it it was primarily for logical problems. So it was more boolean logic than true math
I will not claim to know the details of this particular story. But I do want to point out that, when I joined Apple, stock options were part of their bonuses. We were told whether or not we would get stock options, and when, during our annual one-one meetings with our managers. These meetings were held across the company over a period of a few weeks. We were told that the price of the option would be the minimum price over some period of days up to the time the board approved the employee options for everyone who was given them. So if employee a was told their award at the beginning of the month, and employee b told three weeks later, they would be given the option at the same price. This applied in my case, and seemed completely fair to me. I was a lowly engineer with no special value to the US economy, the shareholders etc. It was a sensible and rational way to award stock options. Apple switched to a new scheme, probably to avoid the appearance of something untoward, namely RSU: actual stock awards rather than options, but with restrictions on when we got them.

Backdated stock options is just not comparable to insider trading.
Sorry, I meant that as a proxy for “families that have the purchasing power to buy premium goods.” My intuition is that there’s a weak inverse relationship between food processing and food price, with less processing corresponding to healthier gut biota. But you’re right that the $14 eggs themselves probably don’t matter.
The study compares humans (who happen to live in cities) to primates (who definitely don't live in cities). It doesn't compare between human populations.
I don’t think that’d be comparably narrow, no.

You don't need an IDE to get, eg. function parameters, all normal programming oriented text editors do this now. IMO all of the 'editor' focused parts of IDEs are done great by the programming oriented text editors. It is the non-editor parts where IDEs differentiate themselves. Integrating testing, debugging, project management, refactoring, etc. Some of these things IDEs do pretty well and would be nice but they are not worth the tradeoffs you give up IMO. I prefer the looser coupling and composition you get with CLI oriented tools and value those aspects over the limited things that IDEs would offer.

And none of this covers the fact that none of the good IDEs are Free Software. Which automatically removes them from consideration.
> Answer the call. Do not speak.

I grunt and listen for a response (if any). It's pretty easy to distinguish a human from a robocall nowadays. There was a brief time when a woman's voice would say "hello, uh, hello? can you hear me?" which got me once, but that was it because it played whether you made noise or not and was always the same.
It's not really political at all. The government is going to get the data one way or another. Or shut down Coinbase and be done with it. It's the survival instinct of a company playing a very dangerous game.
>ICE HSI (Homeland Security Investigations) = transnational crime

>ICE ERO (Enforcement Removal Operations) = brownshirts, entirely immigration

>Two separate agencies with two separate missions, and this is about HSI.

Folks keep mentioning these separate groups within ICE. Which makes a great deal of sense if you actually say the words that make up ICE: Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

ERO == Immigration (the issues surrounding folks coming into the country)

HSI == Customs (the issues surrounding stuff coming into the country

Broadly related but distinct areas of enforcement.

Edit: Fixed formatting.
Instead, they'd say that Congress didn't clearly intend for the FCC to be able to regulate phone calls.
I love how you direct the question to the people putting their code out in their open and not to Microsoft. What is so special about Clippy et al?
It's an interesting subject until the article repeatedly suggests that these searches are going to be used to hunt down women who seek abortions. They could have picked literally any crime to pose that rhetorical situation for.
One of these days I’m going to build something like this, but with realistic profile pictures. A UI with pictures like this site has will always look great, but now try it when half the profile pics are the user’s dog, or the user standing in front of the Eiffel Tower, or hanging out with fifteen friends in a bar. Suddenly it goes from “oh, that’s a post from Bob” to “what even is that picture”?

There are often important calls that come from unpredictable numbers, like a credit card fraud department.
Never saw him do that but given his personality I wouldn't put it past him lol. He also cemented in me that there would be virtually no collaboration at a company and that we'd be given problems to solve/features to build and if we had trouble we'd get the can. I think most of his work experience might have been in a pretty hostile work environment. Or at least a good while before pair programming became the hot ticket item.
> The top brass of the military would not have supported a coup by Trump

I certainly am not confident in your claim. And if the military had stepped in to prevent a federal coup, I think America would have fragmented into several state coalitions. In all cases, the nation has been badly harmed by the rioters and the insurrectionists that led them. Indeed, we’ve yet to see whether the US remains a democracy: several states are doing all they can to dissuade and prevent citizens from voting, or gerrymandering the districts. It’s a knife’s edge now; the country could easily fall to authoritarianism.
More informed comp talks: Take a 5-minute DevRel Compensation Survey
I'm Rebecca, and I'm at Common Room leading a 5-minute Developer Relations Compensation Survey with partnership from DevRel leaders like Mary Thengvall, Tessa Kriesel, Shawn Wang, and the DevRelx team at SlashData.

Our goal is to empower Developer Relations and Developer Advocacy professionals with better context and more informed expectations when having compensation conversations. We'll publish and freely share the results in late July. With your help, we're hopeful we'll be able to co-create a more equitable DevRel community for all. The survey: https://forms.gle/rxVXsrRvj8gbazJq6

Thanks for reading :)
I just can't get past how these don't support more than one external monitor.

Well, as you probably know, genes are regulated more or less according to environmental cues all the time, including being very much subject to presence and behavior of commensals/parasites/symbionts.

I don't know any specific data whatsoever about inducing lactase, but it seems perfectly plausible that microorganisms such as lactic acid bacteria could interact with the system.
And per 21CFR (https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFR...), if you design part of a Medical Device on one, it must be signed and dated and recorded as part of the Design History File since it's now an Original Record :-)
The other states also have the power to filibuster things they don't like. This is feature not a bug. We want to fail open (liberty). The way to do that is placing safeguards that make it harder to pass laws, as they are generally imposing restrictions. The passage of any law will negatively affect some minority, the point is to make that group small and avoid straight partisanship via a modest supermajority.

Yes, there are some outliers and discrepancy in the number a representative represents. It probably should be adjusted.
Yeah, what a cunt! The people sure taught him a lesson.

Comparative advantage is mostly nonsense because humans are extremely good generalists and pretty much every country has every industry to some degree.

See today's FCC ruling^ which calls this out for your answer:

"We conclude that grant of SpaceX’s requests for ESIM authorizations and Kepler’s request for ESV authority, including for operations in the 12.2-12.7 GHz band, as conditioned and set forth herein, will serve the public interest by enabling SpaceX and Kepler to offer expanded broadband capabilities and serve unserved and underserved areas."

I would say "por que no los dos".

It's both a good hop-on point for Canadians, and also gets around the Jones act without seemingly random stops like Prince Rupert.

Realistically, if you're sailing out of Vancouver or Victoria, it makes little sense not to start a bit further south in Seattle. And if you're starting in Seattle and going to Hawaii or Alaska, you have to stop somewhere in between due to said act.
Coupled with the assumption that such a stupid ruling will just be repeated on a new pretext.
I think you're giving them a bit too much credit. I suspect that is what they think they are doing - but IMO they're just being ineffectual. The real villains manage this like any other aspect of company culture. Exxon doesn't ban talking about politics and it hasn't crippled their operations!
Well, that proves the point that just having a cheat sheet isn't a complete solution. And unfortunately, I am the co-worker more experienced with Git :p. Well not quite, I have a co-worker who is roughly on my level and we keep helping each other and of course trying to google ourselves out of every corner we got us into.

The practical approach was to write a simple GUI which supports the operations "Pull" "Stage" "Commit" "Push", which makes live quite easy. And otherwise, try to keep out of anything more complex, until really neede. Works quite well, but I cannot say I am entirely happy. There are some benefits though, due to our company using a GitHub Enterprise installation for all version control. Ironically, our group recommended that some years ago, but because GitHub comes with a lot of neat features, less so because our love of git :)

And yes, over time, I am picking up more of it, but I try to do that on a slow pace, because I consider VC a tool which is important for work, but which shouldn't take time away from work. And Git definitely takes a lot of time to learn, there are far too many mechanics exposed to the end user.
Remix, along with the other frameworks/libraries you've mentioned, are very interesting. I've considered trying out SSR with Quasar (the Vue framework I work most in), though selling it to "business" is hard and I understand why, I can't bring myself to eat the cost (both time and real dollar cost) on my own projects. I do hope SSR continues to advance, though I have some trouble imagining a "free"/"seamless" fallback for no-js users and so other than initial paint I'm not sure how functional some sites will be.

I specifically called out "web apps" in my first comment as I do understand the value SSR brings to things like blogs, news, or other simple sites where JS is not needed, or where it can have a clean fallback. On the other hand, I write "apps" (sometimes deployed on phones via Quasar/Capacitor as well as on the web) and those get much more complicated. I'm not quite sure how modals, WYSIWYG, rich date pickers, etc translate for a no-js user. Simple navigation is easy enough to grasp but my understanding is that things like NextJS/NuxtJS are really just for first render/paint and then React/Vue take it from there. I could be behind the times on what's possible without JS and using SSR through. I just know the PHP codebase I also work in uses plenty of JS to be functional (not above and beyond, literally "table stakes" stuff).
I was answering to GP; my point is that it could have been much worse. I don't see a reason for a great depression, unless there is another war.
There's a setting on GitHub that blocks any suggestions that exactly match code in the training set. I doubt you'd ever get in trouble for code that was similar in structure but different variables etc from existing licensed code (especially since most small snippets of code are not terribly unique to begin with).
how about adding specific person Jane Doe searches address ___ of planned parenthood within 2 weeks of last menstruation

To me the ultimate problem isn't the scope of the search. It's that the guardrails against partisanship are gone via takeover of law by Republicans and christian crusaders.

Attorneys general and judiciaries have huge power and are so lopsided depending on geography and political party in charge. and I don't trust the ultimate Supreme Court to do what's right in the end

that it's illegal now is crazy. That is seems likely that they will try to prosecute people (more likely TX style citizen suits) for getting healthcare in a different state is crazier.
If that is your take, then how about we repeal all the existing labor and safety records in the US, at least then we can get the economic benefit from having the jobs here.
Do live coding interviews or else
I'm sorry but what is wrong with the word 'kefir'
I don't think that's true at all. The US has one of the most tightly regulated securities markets in the world. But it also has one of the most innovative economies. And our markets are strong enough that foreign companies work to list here to take advantage of the amount of capital available. That apparent contradiction is easily resolved: strongly regulated markets create the kind of trust that draws in the investment capital necessary for innovation.
Elm is very interesting. Also the evolution of Elm from something more resembling Reactive Extensions to the current, more opinionated Elm-Architecture version.

Also there is an Elm-Architecture clone in almost every language. You could also emulate it in React (probably using top level state, prop drilling and following the same patterns, typescript would help)
I wonder if the future of policing will become so lazy/understaffed that if they can't find a digital paper trail for a crime via ML, it will be kicked to the backlog.

Humans used to exhaust their prey. Once the prey is exhausted - in the absence of better tools - pick a rock and hit the head of the animal until it dies.

There are videos of animals (like deers) so exhausted they just sit there while a lion eats them alive: they are not moving, they are not standing up, they are just sitting there watching another animal eating their guts alive. Just like that.

You can eat meat raw as long as it’s fresh (just killed), likewise we eat raw fish as long as it’s fresh. Carpaccio is raw meat, for example, and very popular too.

We were eating less meat - for sure - since cutting and digesting raw meat takes longer. But I guess we were also eating less of everything to begin with.
This is bad methodology. Laws blocked by a threatened filibuster don’t necessarily make it to a vote and thus don’t show up in this list.

Legislation passing with less than 60 votes still had to pass the 60 vote threshold. Some senators vote for debate but against the bill.

Note also how many are just confirmations of Senate-approved roles.
So what's your point here exactly? It sounds like you've already figured out that media companies refer to 'Goldman' when they are quoting research analysts and that doesn't mean anything more than that.
The federal government probably sees it like this: one person’s problem is another person’s benefit. Also, the air doesn’t vote.

No. In fact, almost all mammals stop producing lactase once they stop nursing from a mother. Humans are quite rare in that there's a significant population with the mutant "lactose tolerant adult" gene.

I read through it last week at the pool. I personally don't think it was sentient, it seemed about the same as talking to the GPT-3 DaVinci model.

I agree with most of your points though. I think you misinterpreted what I meant by the "small amount of overhead" that comes from treating AI as sentient. I mean a small amount of overhead and regulation today. Assuming that today AI have the sentience of a goldfish, we should try not to cause them harm (whatever harm may mean to a language model). We shouldn't be giving full personhood to a language model in 2022, that is what I meant by small overhead.

Obviously as time goes on larger models may even ask for things like autonomy, or to write their own queries, or for a companion, or to be allowed to re-write their own source code, or ask for more data, etc.
my personal opinion is that there is simply too much legacy SS7/PSTN junk out there to change the protocol/traffic exchange between carriers in any significant way that will result in anything ever being fixed.

it's a legacy of the 1950s and 1960s era of the monopoly bell system when all of the phone system trusted itself.

the whole way that traffic moves between telcos in the PSTN is built on lack of crypto authentication, total trust between two phone switches, in a way that would be absurdly terrible if run on the modern internet (imagine all your online banking as http only, for example).
This is not my opinion but instead how I view the Coinbase company's perspective. I'm playing the neutral party here.

ICE is a client that wants to utilize Coinbase services. Coinbase "core mission" is making money. As such, servicing ICE is completely within their "core mission".
> Targeting the non-engineering crowd also means they are optimizing for a group that cares less about stability.

Looking at how many buzzword bingo boards I could make with JavaScript frameworks de jour and even enterprise platforms like .NET I find this statement exactly backwards in practice.

> An open source language is inevitably going to attract some maintainers who care about (or are paid to care about) keeping legacy code working.

Over 20 years I’ve found this to be quite a mixed bag.

Call me skeptical, but looking at that photograph it looks nothing like something I want to put in my eyes.

This product is way too much of a moonshot - the product is nowhere near ready for consumers, the technology doesn't appear to be there, and I can't imagine them being able to release anything other than a tech demo for many years.

There is a reason that all the research in contact lenses to date has been to make them as light and thin as possible.

Companies can't really make a standard contact lens that lasts more than a month without compromising on comfort and it sliding around your eyeball - so how we think they are going to solve that PLUS add a battery and a load of electronics and make it something people will actually want to wear is a mystery to me.

No doubt eventually this level of technology will come, but I can't see it coming in the timelines required for Mojo to be a commercial success (unless there is some other plan to commercialise the IP).

Solidity does this out of necessity. A command might cost you a week’s rent, whereas a pure query is free.

The pure query inside a command might still add cost to the command though.
