Whiteboarding was great before the pandemic. Especially if you are allowed to whiteboard first then code up on PC (which is easier than coding with a marker).

Nowadays with the virtual interviews it can be hard to visualize, describe and explore some problems with virtual drawing tools..

Is manufactured spending legal? It sounds like abusing an electronic and wire system.
I always assumed Google and Facebook are just privatized components of total information awareness program.

So to answer your question, Google makes making spookie systems cool and profitable. Without them, the spookie systems would need to be built and deployed by 3 letter 'alphabet' type agencies and your local area geek may not be able to handle that much cognitive dissonance.
I wonder if they could fix basic things like letting the user control the font size, before messing with "serious upgrades" which almost always turn out to be downgrades.
Because that’s the level of discourse I’d expect from someone claiming that the statistics show it’s black people at fault for their over representation in police brutality instances while linking a study that has this prominently in the abstract

> The SIU Director’s Reports reveal instances where there was a lack of a legal basis for police stopping Black civilians in the first place, inappropriate searches and unnecessary charges or arrests. The reports and legal decisions also raise broader concerns about officer misconduct, transparency and accountability.

> The data shows an over-representation of Black people in use of force cases that result in serious injury or death.

And yes I saw your edit, but no I don’t care. You’re bringing up the same tired arguments that have been discounted over and over and then you end up linking studies disproving your point but we should consider you’re replacement cherry picked article?

I’ll be charitable and assume you are arguing in completely good faith. Unfortunately your topic looks _exactly_ like one that is being pushed by people lieing for political gain at the expense of an oppressed group.

If you want to overcome peoples legitimate reaction to your points that are completely indistinguishable in both content and tone from racists whose arguments were proven to be based on lies and omissions, then you need to come with a much higher quality of evidence and discourse

Linear might be the best-made software I've seen in a decade.

Raycast is phenomenal; a perfect drop-in replacement for like 8 different tools I used to use.

Airtable is really amazing, and their API is sososo close to making it a solid database replacement for super small personal projects.

Absolutely yes. Maildir support is a niche want, where as chat has become essential for many offices replacing email for most internal communication.

Additionally the chat fuctionality has been available in one form or another for years but has been quite neglected. They have just finally extended it and cleaned it up
Suppose he's talking about real safes, security safes. Not fire safes.

True, but there’s a difference between representing a UUID as a sequence of bytes in a string and as the ASCII encoded hex characters representing those bytes.

Honest question: is exchange support still relevant nowadays?

A lot of companies seem to have switched to Office365 which is not the same thing and most of the one I have worked with block third-party clients in their security policies.

Well yes… western education only teaches the history of places that westerners have been or their interactions with other cultures, with some exceptions. No one in the US is taught about China, India or Africa either.

Of course people came from all over the place, by your logic the Japanese are Chinese, the Koreans are Chinese, Indians are central Asian, Greeks and Romans are Arabs, Native Americans are Polynesian and Latin Americans are Spanish.

Or from a higher level just for rhetorics sake, everyone is African.

As an aside, what this demand spike illustrates is that the average human is bad at predicting disasters.

As soon as Barrett was confirmed replacing Ginsberg, Roe’s days were numbered. Add to that the Supreme Court agreeing to hear Dobbs. Then you actually have the unprecedented leaked opinion with 5 justices concurring.

This was one of the most predictable Supreme Court decisions.

Yet people were still caught flat footed.

This does not give me much hope for climate change.

It may be worth point to the NYT article [1] that Ackman was reading and tweeted [2] about.

While this is about Child Pronography. And we should have zero tolerance. I do think Visa and Master overstep and took the action to be basically against porn. The case against porn only got backlash when Onlyfans were hit with similar issues.

I could have rant about American companies like Visa and Master policing thoughts again, but both of them have been somewhat respectful in most cases. Their challenge to the EU court have been thoughtful and well reasoned even though you might disagree with them. Compare them to Silicon Valley Big Tech, which somehow all became social justice companies and full of self righteousness.

Thunderbird rebases on every Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR). 91 was the previous ESR release. 102 is the new one.

This. I've been looking for a new Exchange client since Outlook Web stopped properly supporting Firefox. I reached immediately for Thunderbird, but switched away quickly because of the need to pay for (somewhat clumsy) Exchange integration. If Owl were free, I wouldn't mind the long delays or weird synchronization issues. As a subscription service, I'll take my business elsewhere.
I don't think GP was talking about profitability, but about the absolute level of the cost.
Wonder if this was inspired by Fortran's FORMAT strings.
I'm on an Ubuntu 22.04 Desktop computer. I click on the big green Free Download button. It downloads a .tar.bz2 file. I double-click on that in the Firefox download manager. It opens the Gnome archive extractor. I'm looking at... .gif files? .so files? I see something called "thunderbird" and another thing called "thunderbird-bin". I double-click on those and some other dialog pops up that says "No applications found for 'thunderbird'".

Will desktop Linux ever solve these basic usability problems?

Or will this always just be user error! you're doing it wrong!
Oh man, I feel you.

I think part of the problem is that the full understanding of a scene with interactions requires a graph structure, but most of our tools are really only built for editing tree structures.

I see this time and again with just regular, ol' 2D DOM and JavaScript. You can define your layout in HTML and then play whack a mole with bugs if elements you got via document.querySelector move or get renamed, or you can define your layouts in JS and pay a relative huge cost in rendering and complexity.

Plus there is the added wrinkle in 3D of having to be very persnickety about memory and shaders and order of operations. How do you make a declarative, semantic scene description that can figure out that this geometry over here can be batched, this over here can be instanced, and never the twain shall meet?
curl and ffmpeg are pretty good. real swiss army knives.
Until you can determine a site like TikTok and Twitch have performance problems due to Next.js, it doesn't make sense to use them as a datapoint to say Angular without SSR is faster than Next.js with SSR.

> many people who can get pregnant

- not all women can get pregnant

- not all people who can get pregnant are women

Literally no one ever is going to be mad if you say women instead of people who can be pregnant but for those who are the exceptions to the rule it’s sometimes nice to acknowledge they exist.
At this point, the fact that cryptocurrencies haven't successfully captured this markets tell us that they never will.

14 years ago the argument was "you just wait!"

Today, everyone in the US knows what "crypto" is, far more than know what "cryptography" is based on my casual conversations. The fact that porn hasn't moved to entirely crypto means that crypto has not survived the test of time.

There are plenty of other examples as well, the fact that Russian oligarchs (or even just regular old wealthy Russians) aren't creating massive demand for crypto to thwart sanctions is another example that crypto will never become an alternate, super-legal, currency.

It's honestly a shame that it doesn't work because, during the first wave of crypto hype, I rather liked the libertarian visions of an unregulated underground economy. I thought crypto enthusiasts were wrong then, but I at least hoped they were right.
For those of us in the trenches(microbiology), these overarching theories have little impact on our work.

The large number of 'contradictions' discussed in the article are evident in bacteria, viruses.

At the same time, it does have an impact. The survival of the fittest concept permeates discussion, presentations and writings.

I very much so welcome new advancements in evolutionary biology.

Why does Thunderbird have to support Exchange and not Microsoft support Thunderbird?
If so, why nothing on abortion pills which is a liberal topic? Been years since I mucked snout with Facebook and I was merely thinking of the legal drug stories of recent time.
I would potentially even go further than that. I think governments should make their own (digital) card payment systems that work like cash. Ie they should be as anonymous as cash and would have to serve all customers. This would have drawbacks in cases of fraud, but it could then be used exactly like cash is, but with less inefficiency.

The actual weapon issue came from the wings. They were far too big. They were designed for a massive cross-range, such as a single surprise overflight then return to the launch center rather than risk overflying the target twice. That looked very much like a weapons delivery profile.

The cargo retrieval potential was also suspect. Nukes are the one thing that could never be de-orbited into the atmosphere. Shuttle looked like something that could enable nuke weaponry in orbit.

I'm not sure how effective this will be, you really need communities of speakers using it in daily conversation to keep languages alive, not some individuals learning it off some app. Speaking a language well is hard and full with nuance, much of which you can't really learn by "the elephant does not eat bread"-type stuff DuoLingo gives you.

None of my Irish friends really speak Irish for example, in spite of being taught at school from an early age. Not that Irish is "dead" by any means – there are still parts of Ireland where Irish is used in daily conversation – but it's a good example how you need more than just education to keep a language alive.
> I understand that porn payments are a bit more risky but the providers can simply have a policy to deny chargebacks for this category and shift the risk to the customer. Similar to the way returns of sex toys are not accepted for hygiene reasons.

But chargebacks have nothing to do with return policies [1]. In theory, when you issue a chargeback you are basically saying "I didn't authorize this purchase". How do you have a general policy that says "you won't get charged for fraudulent charges, unless those fraudulent charges are porn"?

[1] If I buy a sandwich with my credit card, I can't then return it if I decide I'm not hungry 15 minutes later. But I can dispute the charge (dishonestly) and say that I never bought a sandwich in the first place.

Practically I work with SPIN. I wish somebody would make a production rules engine that was easy to live with. I want to like Drools but I can't read the error messages for complex programs I write. With Jena Rules the system is simple enough that I can figure problems out looking at the source code but it doesn't have as many features.

Unfortunately logic is a depressing subject because it starts with a bunch of theorems about what is impossible (Gödel, Tarski,Turing.) There is no system of negation that is without problems (OWL takes the radical choice of no negation) Commonsense reasoning involves a lot of "Alice thinks that Jane thinks that..." and "A was true until 12:30 this afternoon, now A is false".

The theory vs interpretation split is another one of those decisions you have to make if you want to do logic: I am on a committee where I'm the guy who speaks for interpretations and the A-Box but some of the other people are serious T-Boxers.

It amazes me that this system

http://inform7.com/

creates an illusion of letting an English major write a script for an adventure game that reads like English that someone can play in what looks like a subset of English. It does it all with a very primitive production rules engine that relies heavily on defaults. Practical logic requires attention to rules and "schemes" (X macros, configuration settings on the rules engine.) I wrote an adventure game with a few rooms and objects in Drools and dreamt of making something like "Inform 7 for business rules".

You've chosen to focus on suicide in the GP's post, and are phrasing your post:

> I think you're pushing as true things that are not demonstrated, and may well be untrue.

As if this refutes their entire thesis, which it does not. Can you provide some sources on your non-suicide gun violence assertions?
> Yes to both. It takes 30 seconds to run the check. They're not required to interview kindergarden classmates or something crazy.

In CA it takes two visits to an FFL for each transfer (to them and back to you) with a 10 day waiting period in between the two visits and a $35 fee. Your "it takes 30 seconds" tells me you have no idea the reality of how gun laws affect the law abiding.

I used to only use a drill, under the theory that I merely had to select an appropriate torque level to avoid stripping the screw, so why use two tools? And yet, even with an appropriately sized pilot hole, I would have to put a suspicious amount of force into it to keep the bit from jumping. One day I realized: Sure, you can't lower the torque on an impact driver, but the impact action means it doesn't need to apply as much torque as a drill does to do the same job. It is seemingly calibrated to the perfect amount of torque to keep the bit from jumping, and the impact action does the rest without you having to apply undue force - it can just take a couple seconds longer is all. I was dismissing the right tool for the job due to an unwarranted confidence in my own understanding of the tradeoffs involved in the physics.
I'm not sure how stirring shit into food is analogous, but restaurants, like payment providers, are allowed to refuse service to people in many different situations.
>That sounds like a problem for those men. If your partner is against you consuming porn perhaps that's something for you and your partner to resolve.

That may be a sound argument if it's one's partner who's bothered.

But what if it's your parents? If it's your boss? If it's your neighbours? If it's the local politician that you need to approve your planning application?
To play Devil's Advocate: IF the employee is meeting all work expectations, and IF he is not also working for a competitor, and IF he is keeping a good firewall between his work for each of these companies (using company-specific equipment for each job, never crossing the streams), then as a hiring manager, why is this a problem?

For low paid service workers, it's acceptable and sometimes expected to juggle multiple jobs. Why is it unacceptable for office workers?
I haven't watched the current season (watched the first and lost interest) but this part caught my eye.

"He’s given an open platform on a rightwing news network. His popularity soars after he starts saying the worst things possible. He becomes the head of an over-reaching corporation and immediately finds himself out of his depth. He’s a self-destructive mixture of professional ambition and personal insecurity."

Doesn't that sound even more like Elon Musk? Either way it sounds like there's a lot that would cause a right-wing fan base to turn on them, but it still seems like an important difference.
True but in Europe this is really hard to use. My work gives me an Amex and requires I pay all business expenses with it, which is really horrible over here (they know this as it's an EU company but they probably get great kickbacks or something).

For starters, only hospitality sectors accept it here (hotels, restaurants). Outside that you can forget it. Even taxi drivers will laugh in your face in a country like Romania. In France some will accept it but usually the machine is suddenly 'broken' when it's time to pay. Then when I whip out my personal Visa it suddenly works. Right... I often have fights with the finance guys over this because I had to pay with foreign cash or my personal card.

I think the issue is that Amex charges the merchants more or something. But it's just not a useful thing over here. I curse that card.

I don't think any bank here offers it to their customers either, it's always bank-branded mastercard or visa.
I thought so too, until my friend told me that CIT PhD and an applied research scientist in a FANNG company derived an incremental Gaussian mixture model without using the property of GMM at all, and another CIT PhD in the same team defended the algorithm by saying something like "but the intuition is correct".

Open carrying similarly can directly lead to gun thefts.

Its not the governments responsibility to secure your guns either way. If anything more public detailed information about who owns guns is better so that people can properly avoid dangerous gun owners
