Entirely possible; I've worked in the intersection of Software Engineer and Systems Engineer most of my career, so that leads me to think maybe I'm prioritizing some of the stuff I learn and that older things I've learned have degraded. I say that mainly because I learned the OSI model very early on in my career.
Someone once gave me a good bit of advice: try to buy colors (that you like) that go with multiple other colors. That way you can wear the same pants with different shirts, so you end up with more combinations.
At the point we're at now where this crisis is already running out of control, we should do all fruits at the same time.

And of course we shouldn't just ban or tax disposable vapers. But all disposable electronics.
I don't know if it's still normal. In the 1970s and 1980s smoking a pack a day was fairly typical. Two packs a day was considered excessive, but most people knew someone who smoked that much.
Clever Dripper is idiot-proof and brews a full body. But it can be a tad oily. Sometimes I prefer drip tbh, but from a decent machine.

Disagree on roast, I've had great dark roasts. Even for espresso, I'd say full-city / medium-dark is preferable. However, I've had more bad dark roasts than bad mediums.

Redacted [by who?] If this was removed by Orwell then it isn't for you to see a reason or not. If removed by the editors of the abve site, then I'd agree that that's a questionable choice; at any rate an ellipsis would be called for.
This. Plus hidden alcohol consumption is something that is never take into account while doing these kind of studies in muslim countries.
If you don’t get those things for free, then torrents suddenly become more convenient since you get all the recent shows in one place. I could sign up to yet another service. Or just give up and torrent it.
Yes, victory is a great thrill. Especially, I'm sure, a rare victory against a powerful enemy that has invaded your homeland. That doesn't mean that in the aggregate war is great fun.
Chrome browser crashed my old laptop so I had to find an alternative, at the beginning I was sick of the Firefox's interface but quickly adjusted to it, and now I am pretty okay with it for everything.

PS: Firefox indeed has a lot of good plugins (for some reasons, only Firefox got them)

Yeah, it is good to get the job done.
Great resource, I'm going to work my way through it.

For what it's worth, the work of an few engineers implementing the business decisions of their employer does not make those people inherently evil. It is their job, and they need to pay the bills somehow.

This change is highly anti-consumer and potentially unethical, yes, but it makes perfect sense towards the group's own business interests.
Now that's one I never knew about. I'll have to take a look, should be easy enough to update prose to handle that though.

edit: Updated prose to handle this
Fruit was a seasonal "treat" (in Europe) before refrigeration and airflight extended the season year around.
TFA literally ends with them saying they canceled Grammarly! I feel like half of y'all are out here flagellating the author for decisions where the whole point of the article is that they made some bad decisions and fixed them.
The author of Nginx had his offices raided by the cops because his employer was pursuing criminal copyright infringement claims over Nginx, which was written while he was an employee of that company.

Do you want to hazard law enforcement busting your door down and raiding your home or office, even if you think you might prevail in court?
reduce, reuse, _then_ recycle.

It's better to not use, or to reuse, then to try and recycle something. Despite the fact that it contains a "recycling" logo, the logo is really more of a indication of which plastic it is, rather than whether or not if it'll ever _actually_ be recycled.

Of course, you can eliminate doubt by just not producing the waste to begin with.
Would make for an interesting lawsuit. Should chrome be held liable for violating hipaa.
C’s problem is that my “way it is done” is different from yours.

Your friend uses Docker. My friend uses Apt (and hopes the libraries he wants are in there). Someone else compiles by hand and uses pkgconfig. Or CMake files. Or VC++ referenced projects. Or XCode projects. Or autotools. Or hand written make files. Or ninja. And so on.

Universal tooling only has value when it’s universal. Adding yet another contender to the mess doesn’t really help unless it becomes a standard.
Of the podcasts I listen to many don’t have a monetization model at all, some are ads only, and others have patreons, or their own online storefronts. Considering all the time it would take to pay them all individually, and add their feeds to my app, and this starts to sound like a major chore. Between the time, and the cost you noted, directly supporting podcasts at this time is pretty broken for anyone that listens to more than a few podcasts.
> absolutely destroys the majority of flavors

Notwithstanding that this isn't measured whatsoever, it also develops flavor. It's just that it becomes more one-note. You won't taste fruitiness or other delicate things, but I don't want my coffee to taste like fruity tea. Neither do most people.
I do use those options. Though I don't bring old devices to the shop but to the local government recycling center (which I trust more to actually recycle it).
Yeah, that was my thought -- maybe just keep a separate smartphone in the car, and never bring it in the house? Seems like the only times you really "need" a smartphone are when you're out somewhere.
You are recklessly conflating willful inclusion and willful exclusion, either as a debate tactic or perhaps revealing something about yourself.
Try the Hills Brothers coffee in the percolator, I think you'll have a revelation. Though best results come from an automatic perc.

At least they are learning that employment contracts aren’t really worth that much before they have houses.

Always be interviewing. You don’t have a job until your first pay check clears.
TBH I've always found European coffee to be somewhat lacking - even from European importers in the states. Sure there is decent espresso in Europe but I've always found I enjoy coffee from local roasters in my area of the US more. IDK if this is because Europe style coffee is all dark roast but that has been my experience.
Yes. It's very noticeable when you're reading an ebook with J2K page images, just due to how long it takes each page to render. In contrast, regular JPEG of the same dimensions is practically instantaneous.

PDFs are probably where the majority of users will encounter J2K.
Scots team’s research finds Atlantic plankton all but wiped out
There are a lot of companies and a lot of managers interested in keeping Chromium/Blink+V8 developed (Google, Microsoft, any big name using Node/Electron, other Chromium based browsers like Vivaldi, Brave, and Opera) so it's pretty hard for the Chromium project to just get defunded and stagnate outright like happened with closed source single developer IE. Google is by far the most active of the group but they are also the ones paying Safari, a browser with <20% usage share, ~$15,000,000,000/year for just the Google search deal so they understand the value of keeping their browser good enough to stay the most popular of the group instead of just dropping it. I'm sure the extra browsing analytics don't hurt either.

While I agree it'd be better if we lived in a world there were 5 separate major browser engines all neck and neck using 5 separate huge sources of funding I also agree the Chromium based browser monoculture doesn't feel or function like the IE monopoly did. If anything I've almost wondered if e.g. Mozilla's resources would be better spent being another Chromium based build that insures development of functionality Google refuses to maintain (like proper blocking APIs) instead of trying to compete 1:1 on every line of code.
Your absolutely right mate, and thanks for taking a punt on "seeming a

worse during that time. Bulking up is a comfort/stress behaviour for
sure. And boredom. How those hours indoors seemed to linger if I'm not
lost in code or creativity.

But now it's under control again I need to find tricks to keep both

2d is what you get if you see the entire scene from very far away, for example the stars where thought to be on a fixed shell.

But who is very far away, but can see everything? Clearly the gods.. By making the images the way they do elevates the humans who see them to gods.
First: they're just as entitled to deny service to anyone doing this kind of stuff (ad blocking or privacy-enhancing features) as anyone is to using it. The fact that they aren't means they're still gaining some value even with users doing this.

Second: I don't think these features actually do anything to prevent tracking anyway. It might take some effort to validate, but my assumption is that Facebook is capable of building the link unique to the user who shared, and even potentially specific to the recipient if their sharing via DM. In the second case, these will be unique enough to easily track the users who open them, specifically by tying the IP of the recipient when they browse, even with other privacy-blockers running. The only way around that would be VPN, presumably.

Granted, there's still some data tracking getting broken in these situations, as every link is being interacted with automatically by AdNauseum, but they could still track situations where links are interacted with multiple times, for example.
instead of stopping development, why not open-source it?
I do this for my mermaid charts but it's a manual process for the moment. I need to dockerize it and add in a hook.

Starbucks coffee tastes like battery acid.
I'm not saying you shouldn't doubt them, I'm not sure where you got that from. The point is that this is not just "some random person" fork's, it's by someone who has established himself in the industry, so like it or not there IS a reputation behind this brand and piece of (open source) software. If the browser is good or not that's another discussion (which I'm happy to have), but the comment I was answering simply dismissed the idea of using the fork because it's by some random person, and so I pointed out that's not really fair.
> For what it's worth, the work of an few engineers implementing the business decisions of their employer does not make those people inherently evil

I think when people do unethical actions, it makes the person doing the unethical action unethical. People are defined by their actions. I'm also tired of this 'need to pay the bills somehow' excuse. Someone who has an engineering job at Facebook has vast career options.
We didn't install a puppet government in Ukraine. Russia tried to install a puppet government in Ukraine that the Ukrainians in turn rejected not least of which after the man who would be puppet met protests with violence. Then he fled back to his masters in Moscow.

Nothing "triggered" the invasion of Ukraine but Putin's greed. He himself said in an essay that it necessary to steal Ukraine sooner rather than later not to preserve the security of Russia which is rendered inviolable not by buffer states but by 1200 nukes but because it would be impossible to steal it later without fighting NATO. Assigning blame to the US is like blaming a wife's talkative friend for the beating her abuser handed out because he feared rightly that her "vacation" was really her fleeing his clutches. It's deeply offensive.

A stopped clock may be right twice a day but Trump was not. His sol meaningful action in that area was an attempt to sell Ukraine on a politically manipulative investigation of his domestic rival in exchange for the supplies already authorized by congress. He did nothing. He did however repeatedly according to his own people repeatedly express the desire to torpedo NATO which would have served to embolden Russia.

We can probably credit both his handlers and the voters who rejected his second term for him not having a worse effect.
Manifest V3 (The browser plugin API) severely hampers uBlock Origin's abilities to block as many things as it can.

I think the first heads-up version to the public only allowed 10,000 origins to be blocked, meaning that advertisers would only need to purchase 10,001 domains and they would be able to send ads to users again.

It's been a point of sour discussion with the chrome web team for years. They've tried to adjust it to make it more palatable with the public but advertising is just too important for Google to implement the API that users want.

Google has gone so far as to use its resources to silently take control over the web to ensure that ads remain, first with AMP based web pages, and then with FLoC advertisements. Now they've replaced that with Topics but many are eyeing that very cautiously.
I remember getting a demand I surrender my HoTMaiL address to somebody in a very threatening email to my address way back in 1998. It was kind of surreal back then as the internet was still fresh. Nowadays the closest I've gotten to this is the people who keep using my Gmail address as their own email address. I find this behavior rather bizarre and don't know what it achieves.
It's obviously not every app, but I pay for Carrot, Overcast, and Parcel, and would consider Flighty if I flew more than I do currently. I can earnestly say that all three have been best-in-class apps for what they do, and for 20, 10, and 5 dollars per year, I don't mind funding their development.
To answer your question, yes. Someone absolutely can decode that and figure out the odds. If they couldn't then there would be less obfuscation used. A browser ABSOLUTELY has to be able to run the javascript. Anyone dedicated enough can de-compile that javascript to a program. Is it easy? No, but people do it all the time.

I have had to deal with client that thought they could keep some bit of code secret on a browser before. I have had to explain many many times that anything the browser can do a human can do. So if a browser can run the code, at some point a human can too.
It turns out that cryptographic gobblediguuk is difficult for humans to understand. Even if your conscious mind knows it's a meaningless jumble of characters, your visual processing system evolved over millenia and honed with decades of schooling to read text fast is automatically failing to parse it in your visual field. So your users will self-train to ignore them.

A solution is to display the random nonsense as a unique image. More pleasant to look at, much easier to discern differences. There exist competing standards and services to generating images from random numbers, because it turns out the most universal way of doing this is abstract colorful shapes, which fall into that uncanny valley of approximating but not quite successfully imitating abstract art; And most people seem to think that's ugly.

Maybe that dall-e thing could generate good images to represent hashes? What does it output if one inputs nonsense?
To me, light roasts taste like somebody squeezed half a lemon into my cup of coffee. That bright floral/citrus flavor is something I absolutely do not want in my morning brew. I crave that slightly bitter, heavy body, chocolate/nutty flavor that I associate with dark roasts.
The Fed is 'Governance'. It's just not democratic and didn't arrive into it's current situation the way we would have liked it.

It acts in essentially the same manner as 'Bank of England' or the 'ECB' just structured a bit differently.

The Fed's massive intervention in 2008 was similar to other Central Banks, because it's effectively the same thing i.e. 'governance'.

The Fed's intervention to 'buy mortgages' is not a 'market response' - it's a 'government response'.

The intervention was mostly related to buying mortgages (however they ares structured is secondary) and is de-facto a bailout of Home Owners, who, if they were subject to normal market conditions, would have faced massive foreclosures, and, would have destroyed home prices for everyone else, furthering the calamity.

That the mortgages on the Fed's Balance sheet were not 'the worst' of the assets is a bit of a side show - in 'current market terms' they were all toxic we know that because nobody wanted to buy them, which is why the Fed had to do a 'non market intervention'.

If they were not basically 'garbage' at the time, the Fed would not have had to intervene to buy them.

As a result, the Fed hold's a giant pile of 'mortgages'.
The common thread among most stories like this is the spoof-ability of phone numbers. Telecom companies must make changes to prevent this kind of spoofing. Honestly, I think if telecom companies could be sued for damages caused by this kind of thing (not to mention spam) then I think the problem would get solved very quickly. The only reason it hasn't been solved yet is most of the cost and pain is borne by others.
Halted economy and overflowing hospital facilities are likely to contribute to general mortality.
They’re stuck working with the FEC due to the complaint alleging that their spam rules are illegal de facto donations. At this point, they’d want to make sure any major changes to political email filtering are acceptable to the regulator.
It’s so disturbing there are summaries like this that disregard the fact that this is self reported and there is a huge disclaimer that it is overly counting the incidents:

“Nearly half of the participants of a recent study who were menstruating regularly at the time of the survey reported heavier bleeding during their periods after receiving the Covid-19 vaccine”

Of course people when you ask them to reflect on something when there are news reports floating around about the issue are going to over report.
> But once you take a random lithium cell off the street and try to revitalize it, you are opening a can of worms: depending on how it was used, it might be full of dendrites [0], ready to cause a fiery short-circuit a few charges after. It might have structural damage due to gas buildup, or someone literally stepping on it. It could have been under direct sunlight for longer than it should, and so on.

Yeah exactly what I was thinking.. I'm sure the cells used in these disposable devices weren't exactly the cream of the crop in manufacturing either. Probably cells that didn't pass QC or something.

It's pretty risky messing around with them like that.
I think one of the issues is spoofing numbers is still not prevented by the miserable US telecoms. That allows these people to spoof calls and swat the target, worst case.
The price of Gasoline Futures has come down more than a dollar a gallon in recent weeks. At the pump, not so much.
term to google/search on any social media site that has younger users: "elfbar". Disposable vapes very much exist.
Only tangentially related, but why haven't the Chinese taken over the espresso machine market ? I really want a good cheap machine. Dual boiler with good temp and pressure consistency < $500. Even $1k would be a good start. I'm tired of looking on ebay, craigslist, etc., only to find people flogging their 10 year old Silvias and Brevilles for more than 500. Can somebody from China please crush this market ? (Fortunately, there are some positive developments in the grinder department with df64 etc.).
Is there a way to use the feature without their browser extension?
You like the prior poster still haven't provided any evidence for the wholesale rejection of polling as meaningful so I feel no need to disprove arguments you have declined to provide.

Asking if I have gotten a poll is a non sequitur. It's not a meaningful question so I see no reason to answer. The plural of anecdote isn't data.
Then you would have only spent an hour over the year for the security of not possibly losing your livelihood.
> It reduced the odds, which was good enough.

That's not doing that either
Firefox has a nasty bug where after running for some days it would suddenly stop making new connections until you completely restart it. It started happening after an update a couple of years ago and keeps happening on multiple computers.

I'm curious if anybody else ran into it or it's just my setup.
Ah, much cleaner, cool.
- I advise against a full wardrobe makeover. Finding your personal style is a trial and error process and you will waste a lot of money trying to knock it out in one go. Take it slow and incorporate key pieces into what you already wear. Please do not follow a spreadsheet, infographic, or God forbid, a Reddit post.

- With that in mind, you should have some sort of direction. Is there an actor, musician, or other past/present public figure who you think looks good? Try to work backwards from there. Even if it's something extreme. You can't go to work in full punk/goth regalia, but you can take inspiration from it and dress it up.

- There's nothing wrong with wearing nice shoes, outerwear, or pants over and over again. If they're versatile, nobody will care, so I'd focus on quality over quantity. Shirts you'd have to change up more of course.

- Take items to the tailor.

- Things are generally trending to a looser fit now. Avoid anything skin tight or overly tapered.

- As a 32 year old man, you'd do better avoiding hoodies, activewear, baseball caps, and sneakers. Not a hard rule, but none of these things should be a staple of your work wardrobe even if your colleagues are wearing them. Favor button up shirts, sweaters, jeans, trousers, leather shoes/boots, and proper coats. You will not look tryhard or overly formal in NYC of all places.

- Blue, green, white, brown, gray, and black are the easiest colors to work with.

- Shave.

- https://www.mrporter.com is probably still a good overview of normy fashion for professional men. You gotta sift through some overpriced garbage though. Deals can be found on Outnet, Markkt, The Real Real, and Grailed, though the latter is a bit dodgy.
>Built to last forever

Even if the software development cost and labour were free, we still need to figure out revenue generation for hardware and network in order for it to last forever.

I expected custom domain to be paid feature, but that doesn't seems to be the case here.

So do we have a business model for it to last forever, or even if it is something like 50 years.
No, Rust is fully interoperable in the sense you care about. But in the Rust ecosystem there's a desire for writing libraries that can run in any executor, to avoid picking a winner.

Right now what most libraries do is to write code paths for working with tokio, with async-std, etc. This is not sustainable. If we had generic APIs we could just code against that.

Anyway, the biggest source of contention is that the networking API of Tokio and async-std are different. But there's no fundamental reason for this difference and there's hope that it will eventually be possible to bring a common API to the stdlib
I think that really depends on the app in question. Often these apps have a free version where you can evaluate if you think they'll cause UX Turmoil, and then support the ones that are reasonable.

If anything, I find my subscription money helps to support smaller developers and developer teams that tend to be better about not being all about meteoric growth and trend-chasing and focus more on just delivering a quality product.
