People may remove the choice from themselves by supporting data privacy laws.

I think if privacy laws were to be made that restrict what data the Oculus can snoop, Meta wouldn't raise the price to compensate. They would sell or shelve the entire Oculus brand and endeavor.

VR has little value to Meta other than a way to sneak cameras and microphones into your home. If you've seen what the Kinect could do a decade ago with IR cameras, the Oculus has those. The Kinect could monitor your heart rate in real time and track multiple bodies.

Nobody will be thinking about the Oculus when they pass the laws, but they may be thinking about Echos and Nest cams and pass laws to restrict audio and video snooping. So Oculus is along for the ride even at its current level of irrelevance.
Any reason to believe that SpaceX isn't capable of getting global coverage using intra-satellite links? Assuming this, and they've already proven they can do it, SpaceX will be strictly better than any other solution out there.
I have been professionally close to the situation for more than four years, and it has never been "two months from the Merge" before. It was expected to be in about four years about five years ago. That's the most it's been delayed so far, which is impressive in my view given how much novel research has been required.

For anyone curious about an academic explanation of the problems being solved by ETH 2.0's consensus model, see this paper[1] out of David Tse's lab at Stanford.

There was no NATO in Ukraine, but now Sweden and Finland are NATO.

The reason is why Ukraine is existential threat to current Russian regime is because they have democracy and personal freedom, which spreads around (Belarus, Kazahstan, etc) and challenges foundation of Putin regime.
Only 16% of SF is families with children, so that's not really representative of someone living there.

This is interesting, but why is it written so strangely? The overuse of bold text is grating too.
The goal was to "sell more cars"... which.. yeah, had the desired effect.

We went from decently planned cities, good public transit, and a thriving rail industry in the 1940s to... what we have today. All because we prioritized cars and home ownership :(.

It's depressing watching old TV/cartoons from that era. Midsize to largish cities had electric trolleys and elevated trains for commuters. While there were cars, they weren't necessities for pretty much anyone. It's why today the older larger cities seem to suck for cars, because that's not how people got around when they were built.
yes. But on the other hand we are spoiled with choice in tech. So take advantage of that.
The fact that you don't even think of 'farmers' when you think of truck user makes it clear you've got a warped suburban idea of what people use trucks for.
I think you're right with your numbers and I do have some sympathy for these people, but not too much. Living in an insane COL area like the Bay with crazy high taxes is a choice, nobody forced these people to do that. There are tons of job options in other places with a much lower COL and lower taxes.

I got the hell out of the Bay as soon as I could and would definitely never choose to live there with a family.
Presumably you'd spend most of your time close or in harbor/coast, which would mean that you would have other ways of internet access (starlink RV, normal 4/5g, harbor wifi, etc).

I'm of course guessing that if you moved onto your boat you wouldn't spend the majority of the time far out at sea.
Good refractory snow is very uncommon, now-a-days; regular snow won't allow proper circulation in the oven above 300°C.
It absolutely is when (a) bragging on the internet about it, and (b) accepting another job which is equally evil. Probably even moreso when still living in the US, which has taken advantage of Kissinger's aggressive geopolitical strategies (and part of the reason why the US is such a wealthy and dominant superpower). But no one wants to have serious conversations, they just want the upvote for the moral points of not joining Theranos while joining Apple (yawn).
I believe the proposal on the table was that Twitter should give them permission to sell the stock they rightfully earned, not that anyone else should fund them. The blackout on stock sales suck.
No, Russia would not be 'better off'.

Their concern is not 'industrial base' - it's 'Imperial Conquest'.

As of today, they've expanded their territory and now have Crimean, most of Donbas and S. Ukraine as acquisitions.

Theoretically we could get to a peace agreement and in 40 years, Russia will be 'just fine' and Putin will be a 'grand hero' of Russia along the lines one of their big baller Tsars.

All of this 'But their GPD is crashing' stuff is incredibly short sighted, of course it matters, but much less in the long run.

I suggest Ukrainians probably will prevail, and Putin will mostly 'lose' - but only because he lost ground, not really for any other reason, in the eyes of 'Net future Russian Historical Perspective'.
There is no high yield savings account in US.

Usually the broker that handles RSUs for the company automatically does this. They’ll prevent you from doing such trades. You could still technically use a different broker and buy/sell but that’s probably blatant insider trading.

> AArch64 does have its advantages, though. Namely, the processors have 31 registers, compared to the 16 available in x86-64 processors. The PowerPC processor we are emulating has 32 registers, and while it is rare for all of them to be used within a single code block, more registers is always nice to have. Another difference is that AArch64 and PowerPC have 3 operand instructions while x86-64 only has two.

PPC: A = B + C
AArch64: A = B + C
x86-64: A = B, A = A + C

> As you can see, it makes emulating some instructions much cleaner and easier than on our x86-64 JIT.

So yes, it is certainly more straightforward: the JIT can do something closer to a one-to-one translation without having to spill registers as often. But they don't go into detail about how much of a performance benefit that is; I'd imagine a small boost but not something too drastic.
It cost me $3000+ to move <1 mile in SF. This didn’t include any unpacking etc. $320/hr for 4 people, 10 hours plus tip. Guys worked super fast but being on a top floor of a Victorian with tight stairways and multiple beds and couches is a lot of work.
The shear weight of EVs compared to combustion engine vehicles scare me as a pedestrian/motorcyclist. I think this one is like twice the weight of the H3/H2.
agreed and honestly really annoying when the wrong terms are used and then you need to invent new words to distinguish the actual thing "shaders" from layering effects.
iPhone QuickPath (swipe) keyboard will not type 'abortion' until you do
My partner's QuickPath (swipe) keyboard on her iPhone would type the word "abortion" just fine, but mine would not. We guessed that it's because she's typed the word before and I hadn't. A small test seemed to prove that right. I found this surprising, but maybe it's old news to everyone else.

Not sure what you were trying to cherry-pick there, but in general trucks cost more than cars, and this has been the case for decades. The recent new record highs for average new light vehicle price has been largely driven by a continued shift toward trucks and away from cars.

Would it be possible to provide a filter which enables you to list jobs that do not have a physical location requirement? For instance, if I live in Sweden, how can I see which remote jobs I am eligible to apply for?
Many people are extended enough that their stock is considered part of their compensation for buying a house. I know many people that sell all of their stock every month to make sure they have enough to live in the Bay Area.

What's the mortgage on a USD$2m 1300sqft house? Looks to be $11k/mo? So, total comp should be at least US$400k to be considered affordable.

> If I buy an array of solar panels and use it to charge my car, it doesn't matter at all how efficient my car is, grams of CO2 emitted is basically 0.

There are metrics which relate the amount of CO2 emitted to manufacture a panel vs the total amount of electricity it goes on to generate, and they are not 0. They're significantly lower than coal fire power plants, but not zero... and can vary greatly depending on where in the world you actually install that panel.

globalstar is a bad joke and not a viable option for maritime services (or over-ocean aviation services) because unlike iridium or inmarsat, its satellite terminal-to-earth-station architecture is a bent pipe.

there is zero globalstar mid ocean coverage.

there is a reason you will see lots of competing options for people integrating the iridium embedded modems into things designed to go on top of $40 million business jets and just about zero globalstar.

Finland could perfectly be next Russia's target after Ukraine. They just don't have enough resources at the moment.
That price is for a V6 (not ecoboost), single-cab, short-bed F-150 that doesn't even have power locks or windows. Those trucks aren't generally sold to consumers. Minimally, you're looking at at least $35,515 for an XL Super Cab, but more than likely you're looking at a minimum cost of $41,755 for an XLT. KBB's data [1] reported that the average cost in 2018 for an F-150 was $47,174 before fees.

Call me confused, but if these satellites are not geostationary, why are the both the inland coverage and coastal coverage mostly limited to political boundaries? Shouldn't coverage be available anywhere there are satellites overhead?
Seems unwise. You can always be fired or otherwise lose your job.
Finland, Germany, France and China are sovereign nations.

Putin required the direct vassalage and control of Ukraine, much like he does with Belarus.

Ukraine obviously posed no material threat to Russia.

The attempted conflation of those different scenarios is intellectually repulsive.
Yup. Pretty much cut 45-50% off the top for federal and state taxes immediately. Divide the remainder between stock that won't actually vest for years and your base pay. It's way more complicated than "you're making six figures!!! why can't you SAV3!!1 too much avocado toast!"

Should people be more disciplined? Isn't it possible to do better? Sure, totally. But let's start with reality and not boomer bootstrap fan fiction.
Google has a worse track record of not losing my stuff than I do, but admittedly I don't use too many Google services.

Two examples:

I had a YouTube channel that was created before Google bought YouTube and switched to using/requiring Google Accounts. That channel/account became orphaned and I could no longer gain access to it. I contacted YouTube support and the only remedy they could offer me was to serve a DMCA notice to have the content removed.

I used Google Play and had bought music through the service. When they shut down the service I lost music that I had paid for. Meanwhile I still have a local mp3 library that has some content in it that has persisted on various hard drives since the 90s.
Pick whatever comparison you'd like, and the rest of my comment still stands. What you said may be true, although I'm not sure it's as simple as you state. But debating the semantics of the exact comparison used isn't really important to the sentiment I espoused.

Looking at wikipedia's list, I have walked all over Ensenada and Guadalajara w/o problems. In fact, I really enjoyed them. But I know how to walk a city and read a barrio. Mexico City is really something, FWIW.

I will say that I have felt more uncomfortable walking in certain parts of LA, NYC, Oakland, Chicago, and yes SF (I lived SOMA in early '90s, before the boom), than I have in Mexican cities. (Not minimizing the carnage, if you live outside of the nice parts, I'm sure it's hell.)

This is an asinine assumption. I doubt even 10% of recruiting employees at Twitter have a HYSA, let alone make in excess of $200k/year. As stated below [1], those affected seem to be recruitment (which lines up with the LinkedIn post's user profile saying they are in recruiting).

Even ignoring this, there are thousands of situations where layoff + stock blackout can be financially devastating even for people with "well off" jobs. The entire reason it's recommended to keep a 3-6 month emergency fund is for emergencies - surprise medical costs + reduced pay on disability if you get cancer/car accident/etc. or struggling with a dip in household income from a spouse losing their job during a second-in-two-years recession. If one of those happens to you and _then_ you're laid off, you'd probably be more sympathetic.

Over half the U.S. lives paycheck to paycheck. It doesn't require a ton of imagination to envision why even people living in the bay area working at Twitter might be in dire economic circumstances after a layoff and stock blackout.

As the sibling implies: it doesn’t matter if the conversation is limited to 2 users - it’d just shift the attack adding a ghost device to one of those users, which is equivalent (and arguably more subtle) than adding a 3rd user to the conversation.

> It was several weeks after the daughter's first period. Probably pretty relevant. And the signs of puberty start showing up before then.

It certainly would be relevant, were they actively discussing puberty at the time.

> Even P.E./gym should have covered something on how exercise and phyiscal fitness can affect how comfortable you feel in in your body.

I doubt that. PE in most public elementary schools are focused on helping kids develop physical skills. They might learn the rules of a sport or the steps to a dance, but there isn't much else academic going on beyond "exercise is part of being healthy".

> For the author's theory to be true means at least 6 other parents also did not talk to their children about sex ed -- and that's assuming every single one of those children concluded they were trans, which seems far outside the odds.

This honestly doesn't seem that unlikely to me. The author stressed how they chose to send their child to this school specifically because of how progressive they are. If the schools progressiveness is that exceptional, it wouldn't be a surprise if other parents did the same. Already, we could expect open trans identity to be higher there because of their exceptional promotion of acceptance. And depending on how the lesson in question actually went, it isn't far fetched that other kids may have come away with the same message.

I don't think we should be so quick to dismiss anecdotes like this just because extremist might paint it as a ridiculous plot by schools to turn kids trans or whatever. Trans identity - and especially medical treatment - among children is a complex, delicate subject that our society doesn't have a lot of experience with yet. Scenarios like this, even if it's made up, can teach us a lot.

To surmise what we've learned so far: Parents should teach their kids about puberty and sexual identities long before puberty starts. While teaching, parents should make sure their kids learn how to distinguish between transgenderism and puberty. I never would have considered those lessons before this discussion.
Suitable as the basis for a CMS ?
I think it was obvious the Vive was "not far away" to you because the Oculus was good enough for you. The Oculus was still on the wrong side of that for me, so I had no belief that incremental change would make it a "have to buy".

The MagicLeap, on the other hand seemed like it needed a higher FOV and resolution. Ideally black pixels behind/instead as well. Those seem like incremental pieces. I would have taken and played with a free MagicLeap/HoloLens (although not purchased one).

As for a "mass market", I think that's more a function of price point. The MagicLeap (and HoloLens) are really expensive. Which means there's not just a technical issue but also a disposable income issue and killer app issue.

> That's the mistake Emacs newcomers often make.

I've only been using Emacs for 20ish years. (That's more than half of my life.)

At some point I even used Emacs to read my email and RSS, but the stability problems with a single process handling both that and coding led me to try crazy workarounds, like running two instances... Which created problems of its own... Which was all eventually solved by moving back to dedicated apps for mail and news.

> If you hate Lisp because it's not like languages you learned and used before; it doesn't look like Python, Javascript or Ruby, then maybe you're missing something.

I really like Scheme, have had a good time with Common Lisp, wrote my own Lisp dialects for fun; in fact ELisp as a language is not that bad, once you get used to dynamic scoping etc.

My problem is the fact that you have to write actual software to work around deficiencies in your tools. If Emacs was magically rewritten overnight, bug-for-bug, in Scheme, Python, Rust, whatever else, I don't think it would change anything. The problem isn't the language, the problem is the editor/framework/runtime isn't aging well; GuileEmacs or REmacs were/are trying to address the internals, but the problems are running deep across every layer, including incidents like RMS trying to veto emoji support.

All I ask is that an editor do ~80% of the stuff that ~80% of its users want it to do, out of the box, without hassle. VSCode gets it, Jetbrains gets it, heck Notepad gets it. You don't need to write extra code just to convince e.g. GEdit to not shit itself when /bin/ls comes from a BSD userland.

Again, I'd switch to VSCode right now, if it had anything even remotely as good as magit.

I also forgot Mongolia and Kazakhstan on the list of nations that are neither Russian puppets nor in danger of invasion. And further out, Russia has good relations with India as well (not sure about Pakistan).

To be fair, there were some significant disagreements between Kazakhstan and Russia after Putin made comments about their traditional statehood, prompting several threats from their own authoritarian leader, but when Kazakh leadership felt threatened by protesters, they appealed to Russia for troops to quell the popular revolt.
Does anyone of have a full list of the other ones [services] similar?
