That's nice. I'd probably user Perl for this, but I happened to stumble upon Perl just in time to make sure I'd never become a shell wizard. Anything more complex than a couple of canned commands and maybe a loop, and I go for Perl.

One thing I do like about ed, though, is that when I run eshell within emacs, I can call ed from there. Since ed doesn't make any assumptions on the capabilities of the terminal it runs on, it works perfectly well in that environment, and being able use another editor from within my editor made me very happy for a couple of minutes. ;-)
There was no evidence that the drug use caused the miscarriage as far as I know. And from some statements I've seen from doctors there is no general known mechanism for meth to cause miscarriages.
Did they? When? I think there were many times where the Dems had the majorities and clout to codify permitting abortion, at least in more "conservative" forms like "up to the third trimester unless special circumstances," between Roe and now and yet it never happened.

Out of all the comments on this post, this is the one I agree with the most. I have been bitten by "not enough DRY" as well as "too much DRY".

I think experience as well as the maturity of the code are most relevant when deciding things like this. If you do this too early you will back yourself into a corner or eventually end up with a "god function" (usually the outcome of what OP mentions about conditional logic and more params).

If you wait too late you will inevitably have a giant codebase with lots of duplicates everywhere.

In my experience it's easier to clean up duplicated code than it is to break apart a "master function" that nobody has touched in 3 years out of fear.

Yeah but how many of those people are buying computers that start at over two grand? The 16” MBP is firmly a power user machine, and I would bet a lot more power users still don’t need a GPU than do.

Especially when you consider many of the people that do need a GPU surely need more than was ever offered in Intel MacBooks, considering they were never particularly good chips even by laptop standards.

The base config 2015 15” didn’t have a GPU, seems silly that they removed that option for the 16”.

Why would you want to expose implementation details?
To exemplify the difference between science and politics:

- Nuclear is safer than coal: science (true or not, it's not the point)

- We need to go all the way nuclear: politics. There's a million other things to consider, many of them don't even each into the realm of what is falsifiable (e.g international relations, fuel availability, who knows). _Even_ if nuclear was literally the safest method ever, it is literally still politics whether to use nuclear or not; after all, we sacrifice safety for convenience _many_ times, and good luck defining "convenience" in a scientific way.

Another example:

- Vaccines are safe and effective (scientific; true or not is not the point)

- Vaccines are safe enough compared to the risk of catching the disease itself ("social" sciences; caveat emptor)

- We should force everyone to vaccinate (politics). It does not matter if vaccines are safe, or not. It is still a political topic, not scientific. There are things like ethics, social vs individual rights, etc. that are hardly quantifiable much less scientific.

Well, if you're being smart, it's going to be write-once-read-sometimes-once because you should be testing your backups every so often. You'd probably want to backup to some kind of service in the middle, then at the end of the month/quarter ship a backup to cold storage.
These kinds of culture war battles actually do serve a valid electoral purpose: they ban liberals from moving to red states.

Sure, you nominally have freedom-of-movement within the US. In practice, however, there's plenty of ways you can make people decide not to move. California is basically unlivable if you don't like three-hour traffic jams or paying insane rent, because the state is structured with a landed gentry of suburban old-time homeowners. Now, Texas is unlivable if you are an unmarried woman or want your children to be taught the history of racism in America[0].

The real thing that has screwed over Republicans is their stance on immigration. They could be reliably importing hordes of conservative voters from other countries if they hadn't spent so much time demonizing them for being too conservative.

You just replied to an actual experience of predatory behavior with the statement, "it is fairly harmless".

It's not, though. That's the point of this article and the comment you replied to. Again and again, it is _not_ a safe sandbox for learning.

You don't prepare children for the world by handing them off to predators with a "we tried" level of safety in place, you do it by removing the predators.
Unfortunately Google is failing me right now. There was a case within the last few years where someone was convicted because their VPN provider was sharing raw traffic (not logs) with the government. If anyone knows what I'm referring to, please chime in.

A tangential question, not addressed by the article: why is "true" now implemented as a binary written in C?

As expected, the GNU version is comically large[1], but even the "suckless" version is a compiled binary[2].

I'd guess that nowadays "true" is usually a shell builtin. Are there circumstances where the actual /bin/true gets called and that the overhead of forking off a shell to run it (the empty shell script) is too much?

To be fair: You needed an Oculus account to use an Oculus, just like you need a Switch account or a Steam account. Hardware with a digital store requires an account.

A Facebook account is much more restrictive than say a Steam account. Facebook tries to get you to use your real name for example. Who in the world wants to use their real name playing a video game?

Basically, websites like this should be designed the way good journalists write news articles. Put the most important information in the headline. As you move down the article, the information gets less and less important. This allows the user/reader to stop once they have taken in everything they need.

Advertising perverts this. It is by definition the least relevant information on any page, yet is often placed the most prominently. This is why people are conditioned to skip around content trying to find only the relevant bits .

For the 4.5 million of us in Louisiana, the current laws are a pretty huge deal.

Yes, but the idea that those laws are being imposed on an unwilling population by an extremist minority is wrong. Half of Louisiana residents believe abortion should be illegal in most or all cases (https://www.theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/news/article_4973b4e...), and many in the other half likely support restrictions that weren't allowed under Roe/Casey. This is what democracy looks like, and an example of how democracy isn't always a good thing.

The iPod's initial release did correct some misfeatures of competitors but it was not a mass market success. It took Apple until the third generation iPod to hit mass market success. The first two generations of iPod only had FireWire connectivity, available on every Mac but very few PCs. With the third generation iPod USB 2.0 capability was added giving it compatibility with a huge portion of PCs.

Sales skyrocketed after the addition of USB support. After the addition of USB when the iPod took off it didn't outright kill the competition. It just sold so well and expanded the market so much that the PMP market became the iPod market and also-rans.

The iPod had a lot of competitors but no real competition in terms of sales. The PMP that killed the iPod mini (that was selling like gangbusters) was the iPod nano. I'd argue that the iPod was the opposite of a zero sum product because it expanded the PMP market far beyond its size at the iPod's inception.

>Does this have anything to do with anything I said in my thread? No. So, this question is not in good faith, so why should I engage with it?

You clearly don't understand what "good faith" is, and certainly are not an unbiased judge of it, being 1 of the 2 people involved in the accusation. It means asking because you are legitimately interested in the answer. It does not mean "I, as self-appointed judge of this discussion, unilaterally deem your question irrelevant". Indeed, if the question and answer are actually irrelevant, you can trust the smart posters here to be the judge of that, so you need not fear answering truthfully and candidly.

In any case, _I_ am legitimately interested in the answer, but even without my admission, you are supposed to assume good faith on this forum (HN), versus your current, combative, antagonistic, almost litigious (OBJECTION, RELEVANCE! SUSTAINED, I RULE IN MY OWN FAVOR!) attitude towards your fellow posters.

> Because the dealers are Ford's customers, not us. Ford makes the dealers happy.

Repeating the same thing isn't an explanation and that doesn't make any sense. What incentive does Ford have to do that? They arguably lost the Focus RS because of what you're claiming and I provided a link to it. It doesn't help them sell more vehicles and these are only low volume to begin with. Dealers depend on Ford, not the other way around. As the other article I linked pointed out, Ford is moving to direct consumer sales.

> Mach 1 MSRP $56k. My local dealer has one for $79k.

Yes, we know markups exist. Not all dealers do that and it's trivial to find them. https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/2022-mustang-mach-1...

> LOL. My last mustang was a PP and I had to special order it and wait months to avoid paying an extra $10,000 just for shit I didn't want. Sure, at $35k (2016) it was good value for money. I still got the limp mode on the track because of the rear diff, but at least I didn't pay $90k for that privilege!

Are you bragging that you got ripped off? I bought mine new, under MSRP last year. Performance pack Mustangs are easy to come by sitting on dealer lots at MSRP new and even easier used. I wanted an SS 1LE, but I bought a Mustang instead because I was able to get it new for the same price as 3 year old Camaro.

The production volume doesn't even compare. Ford moves significantly more Mustangs annually[1] than Chevy does the Camaro[2], and for the past 3 years it's been 2x as many. Camaros are much harder to come by and hold their value far better used. Unfortunately for me as a buyer it made me favor the Mustang because it made more sense financially. Still a fun car and better for modding, but I would have preferred an SS 1LE over my GT PP

I agree with your first paragraph, and my point is that it is not possible to argue at the same time that Facebook should share data more broadly and allow scraping, and at the same time be critical that Facebook allowed CA to happen in the first place.

It has nothing to do with science. OP is just parroting a meme circulating in a certain group of people who didn't realise that nuclear is gone and has been replaced by renewables years ago.

It goes with the meme that you glorify France while ignoring it's failures which are quite prominent these days just the same way he ignores the fact that the chancellor for the last 16 years was an actual physicist.

This is the level of debate we currently have again here in Germany.
In Germany the maximum insurance liability for nuclear disasters is $2.5 billion. In the US it's $0.35 billion. Fukushima cost $800 billion.

This happened essentially because without a liability cap the entire insurance industry considers nuclear power to be ridiculously risky. So the government, who wanted to protect investors, stepped in.

I feel like a lot of people who dont know this want to educate me about how safe nuclear power truly is.
So using the access key as an example:
