Whoa! Thanks for sharing that. I've been scared to even change my battery myself because it requires interfacing with the computer. I didn't realize there was a BMW sanction way of accessing the APIs.
Yes, kind of. We had been using a super janky forwarder setup to pass emails sent to our domain on to gmail accounts. We had some issues with it and I finally convinced the management to switch to actual email accounts. (Yes, I know there are pitfalls associated with using hosted email that isn't Gmail or Outlook in 2022.)

Thunderbird ended up being an easier option than Roundcube webmail (probably in part because some users had used Thunderbird in the past). It wasn't a mandate per se but my users aren't super technical and like to all use the same program, plus local storage makes it easy to keep local backups of mailboxes.
I was wondering what that would look like.

The limitation argument applies to the meaning of the word political rather than the application of the concept. While one can look at the political angle of anything, describing everything as political means the label "political" ceases to have any meaning whatsoever.

If everything is political then what's not political? Definitionally nothing. So saying "X is political" becomes equivalent to "X is".

This is a specific case of a broader truth, which is that expanding the definition of a category lowers the information entropy of that category.
I have an unpopular opinion for which I expect both web2 people and web3 people will downvote me for. The current generation of web3 companies aren't for you. Not your business, not you as a person. You're not asking for it, because these things aren't for you.

Try to imagine how you would build a blockchain based business 10 years from now. I've done it several times. Everytime I have, I've found a bunch of gaps, missing
necesary capabilities. It's just not possible today to build a sophisticated purely digital, autonomous decentralized service/product today. You can solve some of the problems in a hybrid way, and crypto received a lot of flak for that recently (which I suppose is fair), but it's just a painful necessity until the gaps are filled.

So a lot of the good stuff that was/is being built this cycle, the stuff that's going to survive the bear market is critical infrastructure meant to support the future new startups in the blockchain space... the customer of crypto today, is crypto. Combined these capabilities will enable a very powerful platform which will eventually serve businesses and individuals. Today, it's not ready for your needs.
But a gas car with no cats, tuned for maximum power is not really comparable to a diesel truck rolling coal. One might leave soot on its own rear bumper, the other covers everything behind it in disgusting soot.
Something to note is they have “automatic gates” that are supposed to prevent overnight pedestrian access while allowing overnight bicycle access. Can anyone share how these gates work in practice?

I worked for a well-known "flat" company, and it was awful.

There is a point to hierarchy. There is great value to knowing who is more knowledgable and experienced, and who isn't expected to be. And it is nice to have a promotional process to aspire to and push you to become better at your job.

Agreed, the admins re-titled it too early. Git operations and API requests are back to green, but other subsystems are still impacted.

This goes so much farther than people think. So many people think that if they learn to write code, they'll be effective in this line of work. Writing effective code is one part of a balanced skillset necessary to do good work.
There's a sense where the growth of the "universal international legal framework" is more temporal than geographic, i.e. the application of principles of Westphalian Sovereignty to a wider area of the earth (frequently preceded by the new areas' incorporation into European colonial empires at the expense of indigenous "non-Westphalian" governments).

When it came to their European colleagues, 18th-century Spain was perfectly happy to follow international relations principles that we would recognize today. Their conquest of Central and South America was predicated on the Treaty of Tordesillas, in which they and the Portuguese agreed to some lines on a map (with the Pope's help) and went to play "loot the locals".
GitLab CI isn't even on the radar. I'd take Actions or Buildkite anyday over the existing offerings. I'd argue the GitLab CI ecosystem is non-existent.
As a woman I hard disagree. Women absolutely forms emotional attachments, sex is not physical on the level it is for men. If it was there would be massive industries dedicated to satiating their physical needs like for men.

We are built differently and its not dehumanizing to be a woman because we are more emotional.
It seems a little early to call it "now resolved." I'm still seeing issues. If it's gotta munch through a queue or something, it would be helpful to announce that info.

Edit: It's just the HN title that says "now resolved." This github status says:

It is appropriate, and should be done, but it will ultimately be ineffective: they'll just circumvent that by registering in someone else's name.

Student debt should follow you to the grave. You chose to take it on so it's your debt to pay back. It doesn't help that the loan is owed to the US Government who should NO be in the student loan business at all. Those are federal tax dollars you want to "forgive" but taxpayers don't agree.

Taking someone’s toy away hurts way more than a fine or suspension that can be ignored.

Edit: Also, if you just take the truck and issue a fine, it saves another person from needlessly being turned into a criminal.

Mostly every component on modern cars uses the CAN bus for communication https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAN_bus

Many third party companies have made accessories to read information or control devices using it. Cars also have a standard diagnostic port called the OBD2 which you can purchase $10 readers that use bluetooth with your phone.

Cars may have much more electronics but with all the sensors it's very easy to know what part of the system is broken. For example on my mom's 2011 Honda Civic (about 100k miles) her check engine light came on. I read the codes and it was the transmission pressure switch. I purchased one for about $30, replaced it, and everything is running fine.

As to all these new electronic systems and their value:

A 1964 Pontiac Tempest GTI has a 6.4 liter v8 engine that makes 348hp[1]. It goes from 0 to 60 in 4.6 seconds and does the 1/4 mile in 13.1 seconds. It gets 11mpg~

A 2022 Volkswagen Golf R has a 2.0 liter i4 engine that makes 315hp. It goes from 0 to 60 in 3.9 seconds and does the 1/4 mile in 12.5 seconds. It gets 23mpg[2] (26city 30hwy). It also has all modern emissions requirements.

[1]HP numbers were overrated pre 1990s because manufactures would remove accessories during testing.

[2]They changed how cars were rated in the 2000s so the 23mpg would be higher if rated back in 1964

It was certainly the first big framework to do it. The phrase at the time was "isomorphic javascript" - i.e. javascript that could run the same on server and client.

While today I might re-use _some_ code, like helpers or TypeScript types for API responses, by and large I feel like that dream is unrealized and probably a never great dream in the first place. In practice there just weren't a ton of wins from doing so, as there were not many cases where you needed the same code in frontend and backend.

Or rather, which system is more actionable for the local public, the answer to that is ofc the US, if you can't even get your own country to not spy on its citizens either through corporate espionage or through direct gov espionage, what hope do you hold of tangling with foreign countries to coerce them to also not spy? If anything it seems hypocrite to do that!

If you are a new manager in a large org, these requests are a symptom of common anti-patterns:

"In order for my team to look good by making/exceeding deadlines, I need X from you, so it is high priority" ... but that's career advancement not business need.

here is a more pernicious one:

"I have limited resources/budget/time (especially budget), I'll get team X to do Y, therefore I get more done and look good" ... again, career advancement and not business need.

The worst for the second case is that sometimes you do that for the team. Then watch that when you need them to come through it's "sorry no time/budget" ... yeah FUUUUCK YOU. You'll never get orgwide credit for "donating" resources unless you have it explicitly spelled out to the stakeholders what you're doing.

In large orgs, #2 can be done a sufficient number of times that the sociopath will get promoted, and then can play the same game with a different tier of managers or move to another company with a better title.

That is a loaded and oversimplified question.

Addiction and dependence are not matters of how much drugs someone has in their bloodstream; they are matters of why there is drugs in the bloodstream.

A terminal pain patient could be having a daily dose of morphine equal to an opioid abuser’s, but we usually don’t consider them addicts, because they have a reason to use opioids for pain management.

An opioid addict could be consuming a quarter of a codeine tablet a day and still be considered an addict, because emotion management is not usually considered a valid reason to use opioids.

For some reason, a lot of people recommend going to the gym as a first-line treatment for various emotional issues. I find this doublethink hilarious.

While many of these problems are never going to go away, they are absolutely manageable in a humane way. If you look at cities around the world there are many examples that are as large and diverse as an American city, but much safer and cleaner.

Why is that? It's not like they don't have their share of unemployment, mental health or drug addiction.

In most cases nothing surprising - just well funded and unhobbled versions of things most North Americans already know about but vote against. Just listen to your local Social Workers and Nurses, they usually have a very good idea of what's missing or critically underfunded. Here are some examples:

Homelessness and unemployment: Various social safety nets, affordable housing, back to work and education programs, well funded social work programs

Mental health: Treatment, accessibility, in- and outpatient programs, well funded social work programs

Drug addiction: Decriminalization, access to safe use, needle exchanges and treatment programs, well funded social work programs

Ex cons: Stop giving people lifelong records for drug offenses. Re-entry education and training programs. etc. etc.

Maybe you live in a war zone, and a glock really is necessary for you to make it from your condo to your armored car. But until you start looking beyond just helping yourself, things are just going to get worse.
> Ursula von der Leyen was not elected by EU citizens

But was she not elected by EU members of parliment, who were elected by EU citizens?

Every country I have ever lived in had a similar arrangement, I control who are elected to parliament, parliament votes for president, and the president serves at the pleasure of partliment.

Not that this is an endorsement of the EU or Ursula von der Leyen, I'm not an EU citizen, don't live in an EU country, and don't care to live in one either.

I think the main issue with EU is that it too much is decided at the EU level, but this to me is not related to it using a parliamentary system or Ursula not being elected directly by EU citizens, I think it is more related to what powers they can exercise.

Legacy auto is screwed. They are getting smaller and have fixed costs and fixed cultures that are going to be hard to remove. At the same time this makes it hard to recruit the types of people you need to turn the ship around.

This thread is a good example of the legacy auto mentality of blaming a supplier, instead of taking responsibility for the situation they are in.

Sorry, I'm not convinced these issues would magically go away if you somehow reversed equal pay/job opportunities for women.

One major change that happened in the wake of the cultural revolution was that family problems were discussed out in the open. So instead of basically everyone (including men!) suffering in loveless marriages, abusive relationships (also including men), child sexual abuse (again, impacted men as well) you could now air the dirty laundry - and, thanks to that revolution, you had an opportunity to escape it.

Speaking as someone who is married, let me tell you: it has tons of advantages. You don't need to create a bunch of social restrictions to force anyone into it. But it does require you to hold up your end of the bargain to your partner.
Am I missing something, or is GitHub distinctly not listed in the Covered Services section of that services agreement?
Why so binary? There are states between full control and no control. You can learn about yourself and make changes without silencing unconscious thought.

In fact, intrusive thoughts can be a valuable tool. Last week I found myself wondering "what if I have stage IV cancer?" in response to a tiny medical issue. So I thought about it. Developed a plan. Decided I was satisfied with it.

Then I thought about the changes I wanted to make, and started thinking about whether some of them would be a good idea anyway. I'm still thinking about it, as the weights on various choices are a lot different if I'm not actively dying. But there's stuff to think about. Choices to make.

And this is because I actually make use of the random things my brain produces, instead of attempting to remove them.

Hikaru has discussed income many times on stream/videos and he typically estimates that Magnus is close to an order of magnitude richer than him.

>The same sources who estimated Nakamura’s earnings figured that Norwegian world champion Magnus Carlsen’s earnings can’t be more than €8 million. The eight prizes at the Candidates Tournament total €500,000, although the winner will split at least €2 million with Carlsen in the chess championship scheduled for April 2023.

They seem to compare just tournament winnings of Carlsen to everything for Hikaru while Carlsen makes much more from chess24, appearances etc.
Does Bored Apes own these images? I thought the sale of the asset was suppose to transfer ownership. How can Bored Apes claim to represent these assets for others? Or, does the sale of the NFT not give copyright assignment? (Oh, I see it’s not a copyright claim. That’s weird.)

It would seem this lawsuit is more in the interest of the issuing company, not the holders of the NFTs themselves, especially given the approach to litigation here. It would have made more sense to just acquire the other images to protect the ecosystem, especially given the price point.
Aside: "Web3" is a forced and overloaded name (and category) for all the VCs who wanted to get into crypto, but didn't know how. Similar to the "startup" nomenclature.
Its the nature of the beast, as well as the market. The web market is massive compared to native app dev and app dev teams are minuscule compared to web teams. It would look less weird if the JS/TS line was actually split into the component frameworks (i.e. Vue/Angular/React/etc).
