The stock is yours, but while you are still an employee of that company, there are certain windows (usually around quarterly earnings announcement) during which you atent allowed to sell or buy. This is done as a safeguard to prevent insider trading. Once you are no longer an employee of the company, none of those restrictions apply, you are welcome to sell/buy the company stock whenever you want.
I should have worded my intention more clearly. I don't mean to say anyone unaware of this sentiment is unfit to teach, rather that someone working in cultural anthropology for as long as he has is unfit to teach if he didn't even take the time to uncover this point of contention before blaming it on the "Woke" crowd.
I was more annoyed by the lack of clarity in the announcement about what the price change actually was, than the idea of the price increase itself.

JetBrains stuff gives me good value for money and after viewing the increased prices on your link, my view hasn’t really changed on this.

Their software is good, and reasonably priced IMHO.

As a side note: I also really appreciated the very clear stance they took on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine (and had this not been forthcoming I was ready to move away).
> The madness of seeing land and not being able to do anything for weeks on end is hard to describe.

I sat through a Vodafone presentation at a maritime comms conference a couple of years ago and he quoted just how high a percentage of the world's commercial shipping traffic was within range of his LTE networks. The ability to provide high speed internet within sight of [most] land has been around for a while, at lower costs than Starlink. If providers haven't added it to their crew internet provision, it's not because they've been waiting for Elon.
Unreasonable demands and expectation driven by ideology. Severance, yes. But what do they expect beyond reasonable severance? At the salaries these people receive, they should be better prepared for a downturn. Frothy economies don't last. Be the Ant, not the Grasshopper.
In Ireland there is no legal mechanism to do a background check unless you work with children or are in law enforcement. Even collecting and recording public information on individuals can be problematic with the data commission. Employee reference checks are acceptable for auditors in that case.

And socially awkward, so I felt I had something to bring to the relationship and that I wouldn't have to compete too hard for them, like they'd be nicely tucked behind their computer away from other women to steal from me.
And very data-driven, scientific-minded, so I felt confident their caring meant something - and that they were honest, not manipulative.
And that my ability to present myself well and emotional intelligence was something of value to them, that they admired.
I grew up in rural America. Nobody used their Sierra Denali for farm work, unless it was to take horses to a horse show. Most use their personal trucks for recreation or utility... towing the camper to the camp site, or getting some mulch at Lowes. 1.3% of Americans work in Agriculture.

Indeed, we have been given convenience and a promise of security, but the way in which we operate is not sustainable for the vast majority of people, over a long enough timeline, imo.

As to what I'd prefer (my not having the slightest clue as to how to operate within it notwithstanding): barter and trade. Yes, I know that a lot of the things we enjoy now wouldn't be easy under such a setup, but as with all things that make life easier, there's always a cost in the end. Bargaining with the devil always seems like a great idea until you read the whole story.
$40k is probably a more accurate median. Still, after taxes, that should leave ~$80k money to live on/save beyond rent concerns.

>If you don't invade your neighbors, you have nothing to fear from NATO.

You have to be kidding about this. Have you ever heard of Serbia, Iraq, Afghanistan?

In fact, NATO has never defended an invaded country before Ukraine - the record is all aggression.

Edit: I should mention that the aggression against Serbia was probably morally justified - what they were doing in Kosovo was truly despicable.
In 1994 my Atari ST was already 5 years old. I don't know what such legacy used hardware cost in 1994, but I would guess at least half, if not a quarter, of the launch price in 1985. So in today's money betwen $550 and $1,100. Not little for a teenager or young adult, but not terribly expensive either.

However, I would admit, that an Atari ST and a 1,200 baud modem was far from being an ideal setup for getting started with the Internet. I therefore went most of the time to the university's computer lab, where I had my first contact with Unix. But what should you do when the lab was closed ...

As a New Zealander, I wouldn’t say either of those words were similar, although I admit our usage of English is special.

My naive interpretation of those words is: perambulate is closer to just walking; rambling is a country walk with the sense of avoiding normal walking routes, but often planned and often walking with others (really need UK person to clarify).

Wander or meander-through have the sense of randomness, but lack the intentionality of deep attention to your surroundings.

Holmes definitely didn't get away with anything.. she's not going to be sentenced until September but you can calculate her expected sentence yourself..

Federal sentencing matrix: https://www.ussc.gov/sites/default/files/pdf/guidelines-manu...

Just looking at the first charge of 4. She was convicted of conspiracy to commit wire fraud: Base offense: 7, but the enhancements get huge in a hurry. I don't know how much they're going to pin on her, but call it $150M? That's a 26 point enhancement.

So can go down the chart to row 33 and see what a first time offender should be sentenced to: 135–168 months in Federal prison. In her best case, she's sentenced to 11 years and can get out with good behavior after 9.5. Worst case she's sentenced to 14 years and can get out in 12.

Safe to say she'll be in Federal prison for a decade. I don't have a strong opinion on what's "appropriate" for financial fraud, she'll be paying a ton of restitution as well, but 10 years behind bars is no joke.

Note, this is a figure cited by opposition politicians. Nowhere near this much money has actually been spent.

This is the thing that drives me nuts. Remember the anti-SUV mania of the 90s? It completely failed and SUV consumption skyrocketed and people stopped buying minivans and station wagons. The absolute least, smallest, simplest thing an ordinary consumer can do to decrease emissions is to just buy a smaller car and people just did the opposite. You're right that our only choice is to meet consumers where they are it just makes it such an uphill battle. Everyone complains that elected leaders and corporations are not doing anything to fight climate and it's almost entirely because people are telling them not to.

Let the marker and voters decide by removing fossil fuel from the choices. Without fossil fuels as a cheap storage solution it will be up to tax payers, investors and market operators to decide if energy storage or nuclear is the best/cheapest/technology viable solution.

As long the choice is between nuclear vs wind + fossil fuel, the discussion will be focused about fossil fuel.
There were no plans and decisions on the taxonomy regarding gas or nuclear before, which is part of the Commission action plan on financing sustainable growth. The taxonomy still needs a final vote to pass, actually, and it does not replace any previous taxonomy or regulation. Check your sources before moving accusations.

They're popular in the US:

1) As status symbols (because they're expensive, and because their "truck = freedom" advertising has been very successful) that still read as blue-collar / "red";

and,

2) Explicitly because of their size—they're perceived (pretty accurately) as being far more likely to "win" a crash than a smaller car, and they also put you up high, so you have better visibility. Not sure if the latter actually translates to more safety, but it's certainly perceived to. This is also a big reason SUVs sell well. There may be some related "I like to intimidate other drivers" factor here, too (not my uncharitable guess, as I've heard it seriously expressed by truck owners, and I'm also not saying this is extremely common—but it's common enough that I've encountered it several times). For that last part, see again: status symbol.

Some portion of the population owns trucks for the same reasons people own trucks in other rich countries, but that's not the reason they're unusually popular here. It's largely a form of class & political signaling ("I'm in your tribe, and also not poor") coupled with some tragedy-of-the-commons personal/family safety concerns.

[EDIT] 3) Aspirational purchases and poor cost/benefit analysis. Think: the lettuce you buy then don't eat before it goes bad. "I really want to get into [x activity that is easier with a truck] and I need to buy a vehicle of some kind, so I should get a truck" -> buys truck -> does not actually use truck-specific functionality anywhere near enough to justify purchase vs. use of paid services or rentals.

I love my kids, but at the roblox age, kids are assholes. Self Centered. Egotistical assholes. Their brains don't know any better and while you can teach them everything you could hope they learn, they have this chemical in their body that basically says "my parents are idiots and I know better" and they're going to make mistakes and do stupid things. The amount of unfettered mistakes and stupidity one can do on the internet is boundless. I didn't grow up with such boundless access to the world.

These roblox systems do not reflect reality at all as we used to know it. Kids used to draw something that their parents would hang on the fridge and they didn't make 350 bucks from it, nor did the entire world have access to my fridge to see their creations. If we played D&D it was with 4 kids in the same street or same neighborhood - our worlds were much smaller/finite. If some rando approached us - it was weird and we knew to say "no thanks" and move on - bit in the context of the internet - everyone is a rando.

At first, it was kind of cool to see kids create roblox groups, then use those groups to sell things and distribute the funds - but they became infiltrated and before long kids were addicted and they had to login and they had to create and they had to work.. and they stopped being kids... and old farts manipulated and took over these communities to profit off child labor.

But.. from a parents perspective. It just meant turning the roblox off. Pulling it cold turkey. You can block chat - then they hop on discord. And discord just makes things infinitely worse. Block discord and they're on twitter, instagram, pinterest, facebook, snapchat, tiktok.

THat desire for instant gratification and community at all costs then has them looking for other people in similar situations and that usually means self diagnosing things, searching for aesthetics or trying to define themselves in really weird ways with such fluidity that no one can keep up. Not even them.

So yeah, you can't teach this to kids.. Parents aren't equipped to handle it either.
For us old people, what is "talent" ?
> If your annual driving distance is low and your grid is relatively dirty, a range of EVs have more CO2 emissions/mile than conventional internal combustion vehicles.

Right now. I'm sure you know but the beauty of this is that those cars' emissions can be reduced without changing anything about the car simply by changing the fuel used to generate electricity which can (and has to) happen in the future.
fwiw I'm with you even though I've gotten very frustrated with c++'s bloat in other ways. The shift operators were probably a poor choice for iostreams but I don't think the idea was inherently unsound, iostreams is just a very bad library in a bunch of ways.

The thing is that in the end, once you have "methods", there are a bunch of reasons you sometimes want to have "infix methods" and for various reasons languages have been reticent to add them as a general concept, so all you get is the operators you have. And it's not like in C++ types are hidden from you most of the time. I guess now that auto is more normalized it happens more but this argument goes back way before auto getting its modern meaning.

But fundamentally, I would rather concat strings with + and I'd rather use normal math operators for vector ops like matrixes or combinatorial concatenation. Every time I see code in a language that doesn't allow you to do this, but people write code doing those things, I cringe at the result.

At a more fundamental level, the fact that struct+struct has no meaning to begin with in C makes it fair game to add it as a concept.

And it's worth noting that addition of pointers is only really a trivial op in non-segmented architectures without any kind of pointer tagging anyways. The window on that assumption opened with 32bit archs and will probably close soon as CPU security primitives evolve.

Color cycling works with paletted images. CSS blending modes work in RGB with a limited set of blend functions. The closest thing to color cycling is "filter: hue-rotate(...)", but you can't limit the colors to a particular subset of the hue wheel, so it's gonna be useless.
B2B sales is a different game that can be a two-way conversation rather than just supply and demand curves intersecting at a price. Often there is competitive analysis involved before choosing among alternatives and a vendor will want to make sure their product is best represented in that view. It’s also a chance for them to learn any other decision factors (besides price) they might be able to address. In this case, I suggest the novelty of pricing out a rocket launch is partly clever promotion, though also aspirationally a first step towards regularly booked space services.
So they destroyed someone’s coins because they can’t code.

What a joke. So much for code is the contract.

Can't you choose power source in the US?

Where I live, the city supplies the power network but I can choose between dozens of electricity providers. AIUI there are several for any taste or opinion. Running one of those cars without CO₂ emissions would be as simple as picking a suitable provider and charging the battery for >15 minutes at a time (the statistical model that governs power allocation is based on 15-minute time units).

Is the article author dense or is this kind of competitive electricity provision unknown in the US?
> socialism with taxes and a centrally planned economy

Taxes have nothing to do with socialism and have existed in Feudalism, in ancient Egypt and in every 'capitalist' state. Just because you collected money, does not mean you need to centrally plan how to spend it - carbon dividend would tax things that produce CO2, and distribute it equally to all citizen. Someone who produces no CO2 would get paid, and someone who produces the average amount would see no change.

I have no problem with central planning being associated, it was a key feature of socialist states. But Central planning means government sets prices on Salami, like USSR did, and I never came across anyone in the West proposing that.

At most someone advocates for some infrastructure, and they get called a socialist. But then, why does no capitalism society privatise the police, the army, the navy, the judges that sit in court, the federal reserve, the public library and the patent office?

If the accuser does advocates for privatising them, the rest of society will call him a nutcase and move on with their lives.

So he must instead make up excuses, of various levels of absurdity, for why free market can't be trusted with managing elementary building blocks of society here, but it's socialist to suggest government should step in over there.

The only solution is to Stop accusing everyone of being a socialist in disguise and learn from history and other countries: we have tried societies without government-managed police and courtsm, the results were terrible. We have tried private prisons, and government-managed consumer goods, also terrible.
While international politics is unsavory, it is what it is. Have you seen the US response to the Solomon Islands signing a military treaty with China?
