The question is what constitutes restriction. They aren't telling anybody they can't go there at all, just that they have to make a reservation and pay a fee. Likewise you can travel into any EU country, but that doesn't mean they can't require you to show a passport.
I wonder… I mean of course it’s easy to imagine rivers going through large cities being dirty. But my understanding is most large cities do not dump sewage into rivers except in cases of major flooding.

And there’s also stuff like New York putting in all those clams to clean up a river or… something like that anyways.
You may have missed this in the article:

> The local council has emphasised that there will be no limit to visitor numbers, only an increase in the entry fee should a certain number of visitors be reached on a particular day.
In my opinion, homework is first and foremost should be about two things: the first one is being able to problem solve, research and study on your own (developing your own "style" of studying so to speak) and being able to apply the studied knowledge outside of spaces that you're used to apply the knowledge at (classrooms). Given that remote learning and homeschooling are going to only increase in popularity, i wonder if blurring the line between the actual "classwork" and "homework" would have any sort of a positive effect on applying and retaining the knowledge.
in ecommerce we've done this for years. unhappy customer and return request? ok they keep it we hope you can review us well. You'd be surprised how this turns into 5 star reviews, higher viral coefficient, and on another type of product launch a customer that trusts us and buys even though wasn't thrilled on the first product. This is simply LTV vs a sale.
Okay, point me to a single white paper or certification that can demonstrably, reliably differentiate between
products that can protect against state-sponsored attackers and products that can not, and show any Apple product that has been verified against that standard to protect against state-sponsored attackers.

I will start by pointing out such a standard, the Common Criteria, which can reliably reject systems that can not protect against state-sponsored attackers as systems such as Windows have never been able to achieve even protection against moderately skilled attackers, which is a fair assessment. Under that standard, which iOS and all other Apple products are already certified to, Apple has never once been able to achieve protection against moderately skilled attackers let alone highly skilled attackers. In fact, that very same standard declares from empirical evidence gathered over decades that it is infeasible to retrofit a system that can not protect against moderately skilled attackers to ever become able to protect against moderately skilled attackers or above.

For reference, one way of demonstrating protection against highly skilled attackers according to the Common Criteria is to subject the systems to a penetration test by the NSA with full access to source code with successful penetration constituting a failure. That is a reference point for what protecting against a state-sponsored actor looks like according to the standard.
elitist because he found a local dive bar on a Brazillian beach with good vibes, that he knows will not be the same once he directs a flow of Americans toward it?

It's about knowing the consequences - not just keeping the bar a secret for his own benefit, but knowing he's going to ruin the experience for everyone else who liked the peace and quiet (of course, the owners of the bar are likely to be grateful for the uptick in business)
I mean, it's kinda like a quota system. The fees go up after limits are reached, which is similar to a soft quota. And first-come, first-serve seems as reasonable as a lottery since it affects tourists who will need to book rooms and travel far in advance.
Let's split this into military, and non military use.

Non military is GPS sure, but also weather, communications and entertainment. As well as a bunch of internet, a segment that is likely to grow a lot in the near future.

So, non-militarily it's likely that average Joe makes direct use of satilite tech multiple times per day for different reasons.

For the military there's also GPS, communications and reconnaissance. All key features of any mission.

So yeah, these things are super important. Now whether this means a "space force" I'd needed or not is debatable. I'd say not, it seems to me this is a computer issue not a location issue. Attacks on these resources are likely to be cyber in nature, not physical. Physically harming satillites pollutes the area for all players. On the other hand taking control of a working satilite delivers huge gains for basically no construction or launch costs.
I've generally found them on most Android phones, but they're all over the place in the settings. On my current phone they're not in permissions, or connections, or internet setup, or security, but they're in the app details screen.

I've also seen the toggles placed in the data usage graph, the other, older data usage graph you can sometimes find via a workaround, and in a separate app that pretends to be one of those system storage optimizers.

I'm sure Android supports it at the system level but how you get to those settings is anyone's guess, really.
Yup, we got a ways to go. Insulation is simple and cheap. All construction should friggin' max it out.

Double glazing is now not heinously expensive anymore. But still seems to have the Australia Tax.
Almost, I wasn't worried about people trying to time the market. I was worried for the suckers who actually believed the hype.

Look morality is only meaningful when it comes at a cost. I sincerely hope you are discouraged from scamming, robbing, kidnapping etc because you think it’s wrong rather than insufficient gain to be worth the effort.
A very minimal MVP can be described as a feature. That's a good starting point where you can get your initial product validation. You can always add more features that people want.
Lol, it's nice to find like-minded people out there. While my initial post commented on electronic music in particular, I feel the need to re-iterate my point with respect to other genres. I'm a huge fan of Romantic-era piano (Chopin, Liszt, Rachmaninoff, Saint-Säens, etc.), and would find it impossible to do basically anything other than listen should I hear these pieces.
Interesting, and disappointing. Do you happen to know what mechanism is used to bypass the VPN configuration?

I'm using my VPN as a Pihole tunnel and I don't notice any extra logs or requests when I turn off the VPN, but I may just be lucky. I did purge a lot of preinstalled Facebook crap…
Not OP but I might be interested. Email is in my profile.

I usually take a day or two to get through personal emails just as a heads up.
TikTok's Data Dilemma
I think the author miss some points about the global social context.

Working in tech (but i guess it could apply to any corporate job) one of the reason I feel like an imposter is the significant salary gap between my job and other very technical and essentials job like : nurses, teachers, farmer, etc...

Yes my job is maybe useful in some way but nothing I do seem so special that it justifies such a salary difference with people than actually enable us to exist as a society. You'd think Covid would have change thing a little, but back to normal with covid we are...

What can i say ? Good luck then with your "privacy and security going forward". And remember later, when they knock at your door, that it was for your's and (mostly) their security.
> why not let them eat the cost of ordering too many?

This is the most common supply-demand and stocking problem across all industries. Surely you don’t think it’s as simple as that?

Before that, I will ask if I am really needed in this meeting or if I could save the company some money.
In my early teens I was really frustrated by the amount of homework I had to do and how much time I felt it stole away from my outside interests and hobbies.

Looking back, I was right to think that way because my entire career has been built on things I taught myself via those hobbies and interests. Not even indirectly. Completely directly linked.

Even thinking objectively about the meta skills that “homework” may teach you, I still think it has accounted for 5-10% of my useful professional/life skills vs my own adolescent interests (programming, electronics, music production and entrepreneurial stuff) which I peg at 90-95%.
Perhaps the idea of somebody coming to a place, setting up shop, and participating in a local community feels pretty inherently good, while somebody showing up, buying a coffee, then bouncing does not feel so good.

I do think that tourist areas are ultimately not “owned” by the locals, but there is a truth to tourism economies sucking the oxygen out of building a more sustainable economy that would benefit people more.

A hotel is maybe good for some jobs, but maybe some other commerces or industries would actually make a place less dependent on the whims of tourists. Externalities aren’t fungible of course (how much litter is having one more hotel job worth).

Places like Paris tend to work well because there’s huge amount of infrastructure built out for large population fluctuations like trains, and ultimately it ends up benefiting people well. Compare that to many island tourist destination where you basically have tourist-only infrastructure.
Sorry to be blunt, this site is one of the worst ui/ux experience I've seen. For a website targeted towards programmers mainly, the lack of dark mode is a crime. And the first half of the page is just logo and the searchbar. Poorly named and designed logo and branding. 'sayhello' is a stupid name for a search engine catered towards programmers. Why make the product at all when clearly you havent done enough thinking on how users would approach and interact with your product.
I was not able to even install/build LunarVim.

I think these packages need to ship with homebrew or atleast some sort of an installer. Building them seems to be very hard for people who just want to use it, and not go down hacking rabit hole.
Seems related to the vitamins and painkillers analogy. Is the product a vitamin or painkiller? The latter people have a need and will pay for. The former is nice but not nice enough to pay for. That said that kind of comment seems a bit dismissive. If these are "features", share what you'd envision the full product to be.

Maybe share some things you've shelved, are they tackling thing that are adjacent to core business problems?
> if you tried to charge for or otherwise deny access into a city in the US you would be in extremely shaky ground

Try to get to Manhattan without paying the city a toll, for a helicopter permit, or a public transit ticket. I'll wait.
Meh I don't think I've ever really needed to rely on finder, when I do most of my file manipulation I just drop down to a bash shell.

"To cover the basic" --> I think this is a situation where our personal preferences are being conflated with the basics because I've certainly never really had to pay out any significant amount of money to be able to do all the basic things I need from an OS.

I'm a full-time software engineer and the quality control that Apple puts into their new MacBook M1 has easily made it my best and most productive system (before being on Debian, and before that on a windows 10 machine).

Unlike a lot of people, I don't really give a crap about spending tons of time "accessorizing" my OS. To me it's merely a means to launch the applications and tools in which I can get work done (photoshop, blender, Clion, bitwig, vs code, etc).
I've honestly never understood this argument. There's some changes that are intractable. Just being in a separate codebase doesn't mean you don't need to deal with it. Team A just modified their service to require a new field in a request? Now you just have Teams B-G having to play a card to update their corresponding code if they consume that service. And unless you have everything feature flagged across all teams in a consistent way, or are very careful about API versioning, you'll all need to release at the same time anyways. Nothing magical about microservices solves this, no?
I think strong versioning in event-driven arch is a must, to avoid strong coupling. Otherwise, it becomes even worse than "normal" call-driven service arch, because it's already plenty hard to find all of the receivers, and if they don't use strong versioning then it's so easy to break them all with one change in the sender.
Other than doom I like some fuzzy raw black metal to drown out noise, like Paysage d'hiver. Thankfully they have quite a large discography.
I speak a medium-resource language with 11 million speakers. Google Translate works so poorly with it that translations are often nonsensical. But DeepL works so well with it that translations are often indistinguishable from native speaking translations. I'm a big believer that the model can make a huge difference.
It's not the same regulation.
I think you are mixing up the classic fog that just depends on depth with volumetric fog which is a global effect that interacts with light.
Reading this thread and watching the US news in general, transparency is pretty far down the list of things the US needs.
Hey look, sys-admining your phone, but it's Apple style sys-admining, so it's ok.
Personally I'm hoping that globalisation prunes out as many languages as possible before we end up with brain implants automatically translating everything for us and no one can communicate without these chips.
Yeah I've literally got Docker desktop running in the background with multiple containers running seamlessly on my M1 max. I think he's just looking for a place to vent.
> Progress isn't profitable enough according to the Excel spreadsheet.

It's precisely the opposite. Its a racket but its not for profit. If you made a health care service that didn't have any of this cruft and just provided great care, it would not be used, because it would not be compliant with insurance, and employees would not get the tax benefit of using it.

If it were for profit, it would work better.
One uncommon place where clipping is justified at the design level: lazy-loading of finite but known-size lists, with a real and correct scrollbar. I’ll use Fastmail’s webmail (on which I worked a few years back) as an example. I could load a list of a hundred thousand emails, and each message in the list is, under my configuration, 88px tall (containing four lines of text—approximately, sender and date, subject, and two lines of preview, with truncation on each), so the list container is made to be 8,800,000 pixels high¹, and I can use its scrollbar to immediately jump to any place, and it will figure out which messages to fetch and render based on the scroll position.

If the subject line were wrapped, which would be nice at times, you’d lose this ability: you’d have to guess the approximate height of each element, and your scroll positions will be imprecise and you’ll have to make messy adjustments from time to time. Overall it generally won’t be too bad so long as there’s not too much variation in them, but it’s definitely still inferior.

You can then read the full subject line and other truncated fields either by opening the email, or by hovering, as the full text is set as the tooltip. And here’s a general tip for others: if you do ever automatically truncate overflowing text, you should set the element’s tooltip to the full text.

—⁂—

¹ Browser do have limits on how large you can make containers, and handle excess in different ways. IE had the lowest threshold of failure at around ten million pixels, beyond which point it would ignore values; the workaround I implemented in https://github.com/fastmail/overture/commit/8d01c74d8c5d4ae0... came as a direct result of a customer reporting that scrolling was broken in IE in their mailbox with a couple of hundred thousand emails. Firefox breaks a little after 2²⁴ pixels, also ignoring values, so it’s still covered in https://github.com/fastmail/overture/blob/0c9828a5b77ad14383... (note the IE stuff is gone because IE is dead! :-) ). WebKit-heritage browsers accept larger values, but clamp them to about 2²⁵ pixels. In all cases, the clamping solution means you can’t access the emails at the end of the list. C’est la vie.
My goto right now is https://www.twitch.tv/sgqfmfunk, which streams video game OSTs from the 80's and 90's -- mostly relatively obscure games, including a lot of music from consoles/home computers that used Yamaha's FM chips.
I think this is a good idea, as Venice has lots of issues caused by the excess of tourists (i.e.ground erosion), however they should also greatly limit cruise ships too (they say they want to do it from time to time, then do not follow through).

At the same time, I am a bit perplexed. Tickets are enforced with random checks, and if you do not have your ticket you will need to pay a fine. I am not sure that you need to pay on the spot tho. If that is the case and you have 50 people from - say - the US or China, you can just avoid paying. Who will come looking for you anyway? Yes, they can kick you out, but again this won't work if they find loads of people without tickets.
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Considering that when I visited I paid around 50 euro for parking alone, 10 euro fee won't deter anyone.
Curious, any specific examples of missing knowledge or misconceptions?

I left many years ago when they were only worth low 5 figures, so that would have been a very bad idea. They've appreciated a lot over the years as the company has kept growing.
The competitors that do publish the data have a reasonable interest in that, so I would expect this to happen.
> The people working on BuckleScript had been unhappy about syntax for a while, and wanted to make it simpler for people coming from JS.

Yeah, but as far as I remember the new syntax and all changes were discussed and developed behind closed doors and dropped like a bomb, I mean, it is their project and they could do whatever they want, but two points left a pretty sour taste in my mouth:

1. You know that there are a lot of native projects and your changes will cause ripples through the entire ecosystem, warning people would be nice, they have no obligation to do so, but they can't really complain that people were pissed about it.

2. The rename and using all the old bucklescript resources instead of passing these resources for the community and saying "ok, now we're working on ReScript, it is a new language that follows our long term vision for the future of webdev, follow us".
They own the project, but they don't "own" the community.

> I didn't hang around on the Reason discord (for good reason, I now suppose :P)

Yeah, it wasn't a nice place.

As for reason dying out, most of the devs that embraced native ReasonML were also OCaml devs and tooling was being developed to facilitate the transition from web to native code with the more approachable syntax of reason (esy.sh and revery were two of these initiatives).

ReScript dropping support for OCaml was like "ok, no point in trying to bring web people to native now, let's stick with OCaml syntax, they aren't the same language anymore".

And as "my side", I did use Reason syntax in native just because I was already using the syntax in web projects, otherwise I would just write OCaml, but after seeing how the changes were announced I gave up on Reason for web and didn't even bother with ReScript, don't get me wrong, it is a really nice language for webdev, but I have no interest in waking up in a Monday just to discover that the language I'm using is being completely changed without any warning in the next week.

HDP is definitely in the right path, but you need to get rid of many layers of bureacracy and paperwork. Need an absolute de-reg.

It's not going to happen, so the most likely scenario is innovation will be coming from fringe services.

Zoomers are faithfully recreating the boomer flaw via moderation so they have a nicely curated injection of sludge
C is a small language which fails even at the most basic abstractions (you can’t really create a safe and ergonomic “zero-overhead” generic vector type). Due to the inherent complexity of low-level programming, expressive languages in this niche (C++, Rust) has to be reasonably complex just for this reason alone.

Zig is an interesting “exception” due to its strong compile-time metaprogramming capabilites, resulting in a small, but quite expressive language. But all 3 has a future. C is here to stay, but I really wouldn’t start any new project in it.

I think the usual place MACHO theories struggle to match observation is lensing events. If there were enough dark stars / planets / whatever out there to be the missing mass, we'd see characteristic blips in the light curves of stars when they wander between us and the star.
> It must have been an incredible place in the 13th and 14th centuries, long before tourism economics turned it into a place to visit and not a place to live.

Trade routes and power centers were so different then, a different world. It likely will never reach that level of prosperity through non-tourism based economy.

In a way, it’s probably for the best. Italy doesn’t have a rapidly expanding population that needs more housing or denser urban centers. Freezing the cities as they are (and funding more research and archaeological digs) is probably the best outcome.

I guess it must suck as a resident though.
I wonder if the ML is deterministic or not. Otherwise you compile twice and get completely different binaries.
