That's kind of both the upside and the downside to capitalism, I guess.

If you wanted to pay old Blockbuster prices (adjusted for inflation) for x5 good, and personalised, Netflix recommendations a month, I'm sure what you have left after the subscription itself would find a bunch of movie buffs online happy to earn $20-50/month (I'm too lazy to figure out what a typical old monthly cost was, or would be after inflation) by learning what you've liked in the past and thinking of recommendations based on whichever platform you're subscribed to.

And equally, some shops still exist selling films physically, though relatively few because most people don't want to pay more.

Hey, maybe there's a startup idea there - connecting subscribers with paid individual recommenders. But I'll stick to not paying extra for members of staff I never asked recommendations of, personally.
I think the distinction is semantic. The customer is paying for a feature set and usable spec which he receives. It’s not as if the customer pays some price expecting to use the heated seats and doesn’t get to do so.

There’s an argument that this unnecessarily reduces everyone’s fuel efficiency due to the greater weight of the hardware, etc., but again this is more or less already captured in the advertised spec.

It's called price differentiation.

"Product versioning"[2][11] or simply "versioning" (or second-degree price differentiation) — offering a product line[9] by creating slightly different products for the purpose of price differentiation,[2][11] i.e. a vertical product line.[12] Another name given to versioning is "menu pricing".[10][13]
.ToUpper() is locale-dependent, so can only be used if the locale of the text in question is known. E.g. German ß capitalizes to SS, and .ToUpper().ToLower() should give you either 'ss' or 'ß' depending on what it was before. Always outputting 'ss' is okish and readable, but actually wrong.

Blindly calling .ToUpper() on anything is a typical anglo-centric mistake. Just don't use .ToUpper(), shoutcase is ugly anyways ;)

Yeah we trash the soil with the way we use fertilizer. There is much we can do to be smarter about it. Often by using less but more expensive fertilizers. This is hard to do as you need to address the specific soil conditions. See
https://www.bioagrinomics.com/visual-soil-assessment

Additionally, increasing organic material can really help.

Doing these things is however frowned upon by many who push the green agenda. Organic certification is difficult and not affordable for all. If there were a more pragmatic middle ground we could improve crop yields, drought tolerance and help the environment. Sadly not many push for the middle ground. It's all or nothing.

As long as there is no unicode SS character, we are into the "what color are your bits" problem or tolower needs to be language and word aware.

In .NET the uppercase and lowercase functions are culture aware (with defaults to system settings, which breaks more software than you might think) but not word aware AFAIK.
I've heard all kinds of nonsense from all sorts of people of all political stripes. Unserious people give unserious arguments credence, taking the opportunity to hold them up as typical of those with whom they disagree. Meanwhile, actual substantive problems, issues and claims remain unaddressed.

For instance, Trump won because of deep, abiding economic problems. Attributing Trump's victory to "latinx" or "racism" or other silly, unserious behavior enable Democrats to continue to neglect these problems.

It is not failing, they sill have their revenue. BMW are decent cars that focus on driver comfort a lot. But tech and quality is just average and you pay for brand.

They have a bit of innovation aside from switching to electric. For example you can also buy a function to play motor sounds on the inside for around 135€/$... Hey, at least it is a one time purchase. Yay!

The name recognition will go a long way on international markets. Will probably take years until people notice that they buy average crap. As far as I know they introduced this in Korea. Perhaps people have other expectations there.

There are a few conceptual differences where artificial neural networks conceptually diverge for computational reasons.

One is the notion of time and connectivity loops - overwhelmingly, ANNs use a feed-forward architecture where the network is a directional graph without loop and some input is transformed to some output in a single pass - and weights can be adjusted in a single reverse pass, which is very practical for training. We do know that biological brains have some behavior that relies on signals "looping through" the neurons, and that is fundamentally different from, for example, running some network iteratively (like generating text word-by-word via GPT-3). We have artificial neural network simulations that do things like this, and also simulations of "spike-train" networks (which can model other time-related aspects which glorified perceptrons can't), but we don't use them in practice since the computational overhead means that for most common ML tasks we can get better performance by using an architecture that's easy to compute and allows to use a few orders of magnitude more parameters, as size matters more.
The UN can pretend that it's English. Just like how it pretends Taiwan isn't a country. There's no reason why we should go along with it.
I have a love - hate relationship with Postman. Mostly because it’s super slow to use. I’ve been trying to find an alternative for long. But Postman has some nice things which it does really well.

1. Variables / Dynamic Variables

2. GraphQL introspection

3. Pre/Post request scripts

4. Collection Runner

Postman is pretty expensive for larger teams.

That makes it horrible to collaborate because then you’d just be sharing giant JSON files which can easily go out of sync between multiple people.

Been thinking about moving to Europe while continuing to work for US companies. But it may difficult to maintain full time status while in the EU. On the other hands, there are plenty of contract jobs I can take on then move to the EU. My biggest problems are:
1) how does one manage works hours in different timezones? Perhaps one can make arrangements?
2) tax: should I take my earning into a personal account in the US/EU? Or alternatively start a corp and do corp to corp without and only pay myself minimum amount?
3) tax: do I pay taxes in the US and in the EU? Do they go after my US corporate?

I know those are difficult questions to answer but I want to put themnout there

I’ve met plenty of police that want nothing more than general order in their jurisdictions. They come up to my car when I’m broken down on the side of the road and ask if there’s anything they can do to help. I’ve also met police that go out of their way to give me a hard time for going 5 mph above the speed limit.

The difference is the geography - when police are used as a “follow every guideline some bullshit group of representatives set forth” enforcer, they tend to be bullshit. When they’re used as a “make sure people are being reasonable” force, they tend to be reasonable as well.

It’s up to the people in the jurisdiction to elect a chief who matches their viewpoint. And it’s up to the individual living in that jurisdiction to choose an area that matches the enforcement they’d like to see.

To be fair, give high degrees of interdisciplinarity and imperfect acquaintance with all the terminologies (and imperfect memory), and given that we mix natural language and conventional technical language, and with some continuity, and given that natural language itself mixes original core root meanings and posterior conventions, and given that even biologically the best term may be occasionally (polysense) hard to find, the mess is expected.

DVD Region Code
I agree, and I don't know why anyone would disagree sufficiently strongly to downvote your comment for suggesting that. Microsoft being directly in control over what can boot by default on PCs was and still is a blatant conflict of interest, and transitioning that decisionmaking to an independent body with input/control from more than just Microsoft would alleviate that considerably.
Responding to the responses: a summary, for the historical record.

Some people noted the key thing here - Sunny's decisions earned him more wealth (if ephemerally) and fame (ditto) than most of us will ever obtain. The balance of good to poor decisions leans heavily to the poor end of the spectrum to my eyes, but it's unlikely he would have agreed during most of the period.

Several people seemed more upset that my response to someone describing a man whose actions may have lead to the deaths of others, certainly amplifying poor health outcomes for many [0] that relied in good faith on the fraudulent & false results coming out of the company, his lack of children was a failure worth noting. Especially in contrast to his ex-partner who, between arrest and trial, had hurried to spawn -- more cynical observers may conclude that fits a well-described sociopathic profile. In any case, comparing highly questionable characters like these two reminds me of the old adage about arguing over the tallest dwarf.

Without irony I was told that:

o having a spine and saying what you believe is preferable - but given I said what I believe ...

o I should adjust my attitude - because telling people to adjust their attitude is wrong.

Several people observed that they themselves weren't personally offended -- good for you chaps! -- but sadly extrapolated that to conclude that anyone who disagreed on the no-kids == failure assessment was therefore wrong, via some breathtaking inductive logic.

Unsurprisingly, someone who thinks PHP is 'the best' struggled to cogently describe their position, but did allude to being too smart to be offended by any claims of being a failure (I guess php guys develop a thick skin) and then proceeded to react to increasingly bad-faith interpretrations of my initial en passant suggestion.

>a set of rules that are not public and as such, impossible to follow for non-Microsoft entities.

This is not correct, in that there's nothing for "non-Microsoft entities" to do in this situation regardless of whether the rules are public or not. The only CA that non-Microsoft bootloaders can be signed by is the UEFI CA, and that is not going to change. At least not in the sense that non-MS bootloaders could ask to be signed by the CA that signs Windows (the one that's still trusted by default), because it has obviously always been intentional that Windows was signed by a different CA than the common rabble.

The only piece of information we're missing, and which having the docs become public would reveal, is why this change needed to be made, so that we can then either sulk about it or try to get it reverted or resolved in some way.

Edit: Note that SB has had a revocation list concept built-in since the beginning, and this list is designed to be serviceable by regular OS updates (the OS can just modify the EFI vars, no manual firmware flashing required like it was with BIOS). So it was not a problem even if some bootloaders got signed that shouldn't have. That's why it's weird that such a drastic approach is being taken.
The reason why you saw what you saw is twofold.

1) You did not see nuns. Formal lineage of nuns died in Theravada lineage hundreds of years ago. Women were wearing white robes right? Those are the robes of novices. You need 5? female nuns to ordain a new nun. Sri Lankan monk, Bhante Henepola Gunaratana (aka Bhante G) asked Tibetan nuns so bootstrap the tradition in Theravada, but it's just starting and there is resistance.

2) Women are considered less than men in Asian cultures (equality of sexes is new in the West too). Religions are not separate from the culture around them.

>But I am also sure, that there are Buddhist traditions and communities, which are sexist.

Yes there are and that is to be expected. (Unless you believe that Buddhism makes people somehow perfect. "After the Ecstasy, the Laundry: How the Heart Grows Wise on the Spiritual Path" by Jack Kornfield is a good book that explains how full of shit Buddhists are no matter how much they train.

Buddhism is not about creating perfect world in this world or in afterlife.
Sounds like the same anti competitive behavior that MS was punished for two decades ago. Making it a requirement to only boot software approved by them excludes a whole range of competitors from using the same hardware. Making that a condition for OEMs to even get a license is the problem here.

Lenovo is otherwise known for supporting Linux on their laptops. And yes I know you can jump through hoops and fiddle with scary (for ordinary users) bios options to "fix" this. The point is that you shouldn't have to and this is a bit too convenient for MS to keep competitors off laptops.

Basically, what is needed here is a neutral certificate authority not controlled by a single company with a reasonable process for independent operating systems to get a certificate.

I recently ran into this trying to boot linux on my old imac. Ubuntu actually works but forget about arch, manjaro, and a whole lot of other distributions. Imacs have no off-switch for secure boot that I know off.
Yep, this is the point.

>Then, what is it that is being practiced today that is called Buddhism? Or are Buddhists unaware of the mentioned sutta of the Buddha... or do they reject it?

Well, there are many things the Buddha said that they could not care less about. That would just be one more.

A religion is not about precisely what some founder said, but how it was adopted, intepreted, and developed (including what parts were given precedence and which were ignored).
