Not only that, by exploiting ambiguities and gaps, protocols can be made to work as they shouldn't. At least that keeps the security consultants in business.

Before I've left fb, early 2018, loc/code review did not matter.
Around 2016, there was a push to switch to management from within the engs. This did not go that well.
After, since the company kept growing and there was a real need to get more managers, they started hiring from outside. One of these outside hires become my manager and he was the reason I left.
Code review used to be on the same axis as onboarding, office hours, that sort of thing.
> I get it if location based pay is used for jobs that require in person. But how can the employer have it both ways? Why would the employer want to subsidize more expensive lifestyles for a remote position?

Employers don't pay high because CoL is high; they pay what the market allows them to pay.
Also why wages and other transaction data (like it is for real estate in most states) should be public.
only if you pretend nuclear submarines don't exist, and that russia knows where all second strike facilities are, and can target all of them with supersonic missiles.

I don't think so.
It has a chilling effect on everyone who reads about it. Threats against someone else for their political speech could mean something happens to any of us.

You can use jarred garlic all you like. If someone gives you shit, tell them GFY.

I use it once in a while, e.g. for marinades.

One method of crushing that I don't see here: if you have drinking glasses with heavy glass bottoms (most of them, from what I can tell), you can just smash the clove with that. Peel the skin, then smash the clove again. Now it might be usable as is, but if not, you can chop it pretty easily. I've never broken a glass that way.
Well, if they can negotiate a particular incident down then they pay less for it, but in the long run big picture you're exactly right. So long as they can inject noise into the plan shopping channel and so long as they aren't doing worse than their competitors by that noise margin, they'll do fine. Which in practice means that they just pass along the costs.

> Apps in general either directly support high DPI or if dumb can be set to an integer scaling factor via environment.

I will again repeat myself there: and how does the display server know, if the app won't tell?

> 99% of people are going to need exactly one variable for gtk apps that wouldn't be needed if gtk was just a tad smarter.

Variables do not work in dynamic environment, where hotplug is a thing. Like personal computing in last 25 years or so.

> You spend 30 seconds setting it up then every works including mixed dpi. In fact one could trivialize this at installation and write configuration to xorg.conf or xorg.conf.d

So you are telling here, that:

- there should be a database of apps; ignoring that the display server won't be able to recognize them solely on socket connection and it won't have another info available (no, Xresources is not a solution)
- that database would be local system-specific
- and it would be static, so if the user hot-plugs some hardware, it won't reflect the current system state anymore
- and it would be static at runtime. If you want a change for a running app, you have to restart the app.

Do you see some problems with that?

The problem with this kind of thinking is putting hacks on top of another hacks and then wondering when the mountain goes down.

> This is an example of user hostility that goes a long way towards destroying adoption. Wherein your users and downstream projects like distros who actually care about user experience will take pains to avoid you.

How exactly did XDarwin destroy adoption of Quartz? If anything, it drove adoption. Instead of trying to hide the shortcomings, it exposed them and offered another solution, without them.

> Wherein your users and downstream projects like distros who actually care about user experience will take pains to avoid you.

Only those who prefer long pain; those who prefer short pain would do exactly the same.

> Then you can call them all luddites for caring more about working hardware than plumbing.

The entire point is that it does not work. Remember that when someone will complain that the monitor they plugged into their laptop doesn't do the right thing, unlike their Windows or Mac.
In the same boat. I remember following this story since I was in high school

> Big Bad John is a strawman, because if Big Bad John was abusing his children or beating his wife, I wouldn't confront him either. I'd call the police. It doesn't reflect at all the legitimacy or illegitimacy of the criticism.
Also, we should probably get over that pretense that anonymity ends brutal criticism. Plenty of people are happy to sign pretty brutal criticism, or even to make a brand out of it.
The thing that it's easy to do is to attack "haters" or "cynics" because they don't really exist. They're what happens when people define other people's motivations by the effect on them personally. Somebody hates me? They're a "hater." Somebody says that something I think will work will definitely not work? They're a "cynic" that doesn't believe anything can improve and hate people who have retained the ability to dream.
The same people leaving comments on this game encouraging the designers to kill themselves will agree completely with this reasoning, because it has very little content.

So ... besides telling me what's wrong with what I said, I don't see much positive stuff, there, so I assume that what I said is completely worthless, since I was basically saying "I've tried negative, so now, I try positive." I didn't even phrase it in a way that tells others to do it (I've learned to avoid "you" a lot).

That's OK. I'll keep doing it, anyway. I'm stupid, that way.

BTW: I know a whole bunch of folks, IRL, that have ... let's say ... a checkered past ... Probably not ones I'd want to walk up and insult, but hey, if that's what you want to do, for kicks, knock yourself out. Nah ... scratch that. It will likely be done for you (but maybe not. Their "checkers" are in the past. That's kind of the point of it all) ...

It's been a great help, in managing my mouth (and Lord knows, I need all the help I can get, in that department).

If you are US-based, have a great long weekend. Dogs hate this weekend.
In case you're wondering, you're likely being downvoted because the person you responded to asked, seemingly in good faith, if you had any tricks or tips for improving jarred garlic (e.g. by preparation or brand choice.)

To respond by quoting the very comment they replied to comes off as unnecessarily defensive and doesn't seem to assume good faith.
I get around London in a regular taxi just fine?
In America, most people just have "ovens", not "pizza ovens". And they generally can't go as high as 450C, unless maybe you put them in "self cleaning" mode (which stands a good chance of filling your kitchen with smoke if you haven't cleaned your oven recently.)

But yes, ideally a pizza is cooked hot and fast.
What happened to the "stochastic terrorism" buzzword? Now it's good?

BTW, I've seen several previous stories of FBI agents visiting homes for non-criminal tweets (similarly inflammatory to this but again with no actionable call to violence; though those tweets were not viral nor progressive-aligned), so it's surprising that the DHS would merely send a cease and desist instead of the FBI actually interviewing the person at their home. Despite this letter seeming realistic, it might be more prudent to wait until media fact-checking. Searching Google for variations of "DHS cease and desist letter" yields zero results.

Runtime C# Code Compilation Revisited for Roslyn
This is ridiculous. Anyone could have looked at the test results for Javelin and seen that it would be successful against modern armor. Same with the Ukrainian Skif and Stugna ATGMs, the UK's Brimstone and the NLAW. All of these had been extensively tested by multiple parties and found highly effective.

And the threat posed by ATGMs to improperly deployed tanks has been well understood since the 73 War where Israel first faced the Sagger ATGM.

Also, ATGMs didn't play a big role in either Iraq or Afghanistan, especially against armored vehicles. In Afghanistan the Javelin was used primarily as a bunker buster or knocking on cave doors. In Iraq, both TOW and Javelin were used for breaking up fortifications. Hellfire was used in the abortive Apache raid that showed how useless helicopter gunships were in a contested environment with lots of AAA.

This idea that there's a secret arsenal with staff and personal briefed on a need to know basis is just conspiracy theory. Sure, there are weapons in development that are secret, and specific capabilities are secret, but there's very few silver bullets hiding out in Tonopah or White Sands.
It exists, and is known as "compound interest".

I'm a huge fan as well. She does an amazing job, and seems to be one of the only people on YT who is actually pointing out all the BS a lot of these "crafts" and "baking" channels are.

And she communicates a lot with YT trying to get them to remove some of the more dangerous "hacks" and I believe has also been successful with certain attempts in the past.
I actually do think the reason why gamers tend to be nastier as a group comes from them having a large group of children and teenagers. The vast majority of a group are lurkers, so you only need a small percentage of vocal jerks to make it worse. I bet most of the jerks and trolls in the gaming world probably skew younger vs. total gamer population.
> Since growing weed is purely done by criminals right now, we're also afraid to legalize because legal weed farms might get issues with criminal involvement or threat because the criminals lose a huge income source. If we don't legalize however when Germany does, we'll then get a bunch of trafficking from Germany to the Netherlands.

Oregon legalized weed and this hasn't been a huge problem. But if people fear it is, the solution to this is simple. Make it easy to become a legal grower.
As someone who's a decent cook but who has never actually enjoyed the fine details of cooking from scratch, I would be content to pay for that margin... but the sheer amount of packaging waste in meal kits and most prepackaged food has increasingly driven me to keep using fresh ingredients from a local grocery. Any company that can come up with some sort of happy medium there will probably get my business forever.

>So we should always pay attention if the government is trying to sell us something through media.

Isn't this how our entire "news media" landscape works (with the exception of a handful of legit investigative journalists)?

"My anonymous sources tell me..." really means "someone in the government wanted me to put this message out to the public."

Also, hasn't the US been busted funding revolutions/freedom fighters in 3rd world countries multiple times, utilizing propaganda at every step along the way? Or is that all BS?

Toaster ovens and toasters are at most 1800W appliances. Typical electric oven elements are in the 3000-3500W range. If you're broiling, toaster ovens are much more efficient.

Ovens I've used take roughly 15minutes to warm to 400F (200C), regardless of if they are electric or gas.
The accusation here isn't that they are skimming a disproportionate amount, it's that they aren't doing their job, which is to put downwards pressure on provider prices.

SEEKING WORK | Remote (currently in Spain; can do US working hours; can travel) | Languages ES/CA/EO/EN/LV/ID/DE

Python/Django/back-end/devops/QA/documentation/processes/GNU/Linux/bugs/research/metrics. I offer attention to detail and perfectionism, in case it's needed. I care more about the business goal than about cutting-edge technologies. I'm a generalist but I'm mostly focused on /knowledge/ (learning, formalisation, validation, research, teaching, documenting, …). My technical experience has included: consulting, managing large clients with large deployments (>50 servers in AWS, with auto-scaling, ansible, firefighting, etc.), extending complex code bases (e.g. Open edX, the MOOC in edx.org), writing articles, improving company processes, starting a company from scratch, being CTO, mentoring, project management, finantials. I've worked in a remote team for 4 years doing free software, plus 6+ years elsewhere, and 20+ with GNU/Linux. My personal projects are about free software (respecting users' rights) and human language learning.

Contracting process: we can chat and discuss your needs or discuss a proposal (at no cost until we sign something). I can provide estimates, fixed-price or per hour as you prefer. Or we can start informally with small projects per-hour and see how it goes. I have a business registered in Latvia and can do invoices (and pay VAT etc.).

I'd prefer short or small projects. I would consider full-time employment only if a project matches my interests well.
Well researched for sure, good read as I had some of these recently too and am glad now to understand more about it.

What I do want to highlight is the deeper "why", and that is "why" are these people doing this? There must be a fundamental survival mechanism here, in a larger chain. These people may not have opportunities, the ones holding others captive. What kind of environment is needed to create this type of behavior? Surely we must address that at the core of it all. I think it comes down to basic resources, and this is where I think the vision of Jacque Fresco and The Venus Project can come into play. Which is to create a resource-based economy and evolve as a civilization to taking care of one another, it is a form of democratic socialism, which I think can solve this type of issue, and help us all be more integrated and happier.
I was guessing it was this bit at the bottom of their landing page:

The audacity!
Those 100% of employees will be affected by the decision to shrink costs regardless of staying or being let go.

I'd personally like what happened with one employer. They said there was budget issues and that anyone who wanted to go were offered to be let go with severance. The company is in a slightly worse position that they can't control who took them up on the offer, but it meant that everyone who stayed still wanted to be there and were dedicated to the company post cuts.

Health insurers in the US have a cap on how much of premiums can go to profits.
Context: https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-43823883

And… I’m not the expert but I’m pretty sure the BPAs in the second fill are negligible compared to the first. The point is that they are all drinking single-use bottled water and trashing the bottles because of a tiny irrational concern for themselves.

The owner of Jungle Bay in Dominica said a similar thing. Like how we go to watch leatherbacks nesting, and Dominicans show up with hatchets. He was trying to do conservation from a banker’s chair in Morgan Stanley, but it wasn’t working because the people felt no connection to the ecosystem. He started the resort so that the locals would see the value that ‘we’ ascribe to it.
In the US, isn't there regulations that effectively cap their profit margins? Since they have no incentive to increase their margin through negotiation, their only incentive would be to lower their costs below competition.
In my understanding, whataboutism is when instead of addressing valid criticism you start pointing fingers at your neighbor, as if it somehow makes that criticism not apply to you. It's not OK to pee in the street even if everybody else does.
Question to somebody who might know as this seems like a relevant thread to ask in.

If a person wants to pay directly in cash/credit-card for services rendered by a doctor, do doctors' agreements with insurance companies generally prevent them from offering a cash discount to cash-paying patiences lower than the insurance company negotiated price?
