On a larger issue, does having a non-human organ affect your legal status as a human? Are people with pig heart valves not human anymore?
That's not an "internet" issue, that's a contract issue. The vast bulk of our representatives are fully credentialed with some credential that says they understand that, and the remaining few that don't can't have failed to pick up the super basic level of understanding it takes to understand that. Moreover, I'm sure quite a lot of them have been personally screwed at some point by a contract. Old they may be, but they're nowhere near as old as this sort of trick.

Give the nature of their previous work and their credentials, a good number of them have probably written contracts that have one variant or another of this trick in them.
The “pollute more from the tires being heavier” is a myth, by the way. There was an article that circulated claiming this, but they never actually measured the tire pollution of electric cars, just extrapolated from ICE cars with really terrible and ultimately false arguments. Electric cars tend to use low rolling resistance tires (potentially less wear… if you’re experiencing less rolling resistance, that means less energy ends up being used to produce wear, so less wear occurs… in part due to geometric effects and partly due to composition of the tires). Electric cars are also fairly comparable in curb weight due to massive weight reductions elsewhere, plus improved traction control (and the more gentle regenerative braking) means less wheel slippage and wear. And it assumes ICE cars are operating at full emissions-control mode which is also untrue especially on startup or in cold weather or if using diesel. It also assumes tire wear mass is all minute particles of the same problematic effects of ICE exhaust particles, which is a bad assumption for multiple reasons (for one, it ignores empirical measurements of particle sizes), and it ignores gaseous emissions entirely in the calculation, many of which are very problematic like carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides of various types, components of gasoline such as benzene and xylene and toluene, ozone (a major component of smog), etc. It also ignores the near absence of break wear in electric cars, thus the absence of silica dust (or iron oxide dust, or whatever the brakes and the rotors are made of, etc).

In short, it is misinformation.
I've found that the DAW itself wasn't the problem for me. It was using the same computer and space for work as I did for creativity. As soon as I set up a dedicated laptop and corner for music, and ran the DAW full screen, the distractions went away. I use a combination of hardware and software.
That was never going to happen. Just selling the electricity on the regulated market doesn't pay nearly enough. You can be happy that BTC increased demand and thus sped up progress and commodization of renewables - without it other renewable projects might have been much more expensive and with less output.

If someone needs colocation, i.e. the rental of a space for the server, then that will of course increase the likelihood that renting a server is more advantageous than buying a server.

However there are many who have their own server rooms, so they do not need to rent any extra space for a server.
I saw the second video yesterday, but I found it interesting when watching it, because I also was looking at Google Maps to see where it was.

https://youtu.be/TjBV4R18ICY?t=255 (4m15 on your [1]) shows a lot of destroyed buildings and we're left to imagine that these are houses as it later cuts to images of houses and fire engines. But actually, if you look on Google Maps, you can see that it's actually a fireworks factory, a fairly important detail that was missed out.

You can see it yourself at: https://www.google.com/maps/@51.4680241,0.2185786,453m/data=... the same layout of buildings and the label "Wells Fireworks Factory" in the centre of it.
> It's not okay to cry at work because of how stressful a deadline is. I mean, let's be honest here, this person was working at Stripe she's not a nurse that has someone's literal life in their hands.

Crying at work because your boss is harassing you or your coworkers are toxic -- agreed, no one should have to endure that. Crying at work because you're invested and care about the outcome? What's the problem here outside of your belief that these people are ignorant or fooled by capitalism?

> It's good to be passionate, but where we put our passion is very important.

Thankfully you don't have the right to tell people where their passions should lie. For many of us we like our work. It's a large part of our identity. We like the impact it provides, we like being good at it, we want to be good at it, and we're invested in it. The financial security it provides for us and our family is another strong motivator.

Your reply is patronizing and full of judgement. Implicit in it are professions you think are noble, and worthwhile of care, and the rest? Sheeps, wake up! Go find a hobby!
Possibly. The other possibility is it will make it impossible to buy an iPhone in Europe.

It certainly puts a huge incentive on Apple to figure out technical solutions to problems like "How do we get other browser engines on this thing without compromising a hundred OS assumptions, battery performance, or user security," but it's also possible Apple decides that's a no-go and it'll cost more than 25% of annual revenue to comply, at which point the winning market strategy is opt-out. That's fine; win-win for the EU market because it clears the playing field for a European-originated competitor to the iPhone.

ETA I forgot the third possibility: Apple decides it will cost more than 10% (and later 20%) of revenue to comply, but the 5% bump in value is still worth it and they write off non-compliance as a tax to do business in Europe. Then if the EU tries to impose structural or behavioral changes, we're back to square one on the question of whether those changes cost more than (now) 5% of Apple's revenue.

I can't enable bluetooth on my Sony TV because it displays a pop up dialog box when anything tries to connect with it, which is frequent due to some unknown neighbor's device constantly trying to pair with it 24/7. It renders the TV unwatchable. There's no way to disable bluetooth pairing on the TV aside from disabling bluetooth entirely - a well known design flaw. Naively, the TV designers assumed all devices (and people) are well behaved, and it was thought to be convenient to have one less configuration mode.
Due to alpha-beta cutoffs, you don't need a full game tree. But if you did build a tree with all legal chess positions, it would have approximately 4.8x10^44 of them [1].

I sold httpstatuses.com (website and domain) in... 2016 I think, maybe 2017, and the acquirers kept it as-is until 2022. Someone (not me) recently relaunched the site (as it was opensource) under a new domain -- https://httpstatuses.io -- so if you can replace ".com" with ".io" in your muscle memory, you can get the original site!

While he's (this goes without saying) perfectly within his rights to do so. I feel this decision will undermine his status as one of the GOATs of the game in the long run.

"However, one cannot say that he has beaten Caruana or Karjakin convincingly. [Both matches were decided on tiebreaks]. There were questions in his match against Anand too. If he had beaten all three of them as clearly as he won against Nepomniachtchi, I would understand Carlsen. But is he already tired of winning after winning one match clearly?" (Karpov)
I think Bluetooth is a different experience for different people.

Couple of questions that may help bridge the gap:

Do you have other people with cell phones who regularly pair to your car? (this is my pain point - I am getting ready to take kids to school, but minivan pairs to my wife's phone at home; or conversely, my wife is going out for groceries, but instead of pairing to her phone that's in the car, minivan pairs up with my phone 30ft and one floor up, and TAKES OVER my own bluetooth headset, so now she's hearing my work call in the car as she drives away, and everybody on the call is hearing my screaming kids, while I'm wondering why everybody has turned silent :P ).

Do other people pair with your soundcores; do you have multitude of headphones you pair with? (I have multiple content devices - work iPhone, personal galaxy note, and couple of tablets; conversely, I have a work boom headset as well as entertainment headphones; and then we throw my wife into the mix. Neither Android nor iPhone make us feel easily in control of what's happening).

What's your experience pairing with friends' cars, and home entertainment devices via bluetooth, or a net-new device? (it's a whole other fun party drinking game trying to join to another person's home devices! Devices may have meaningless names that are not indicative of what they are, or they may need to be in some special mode to be discoverable, some may require pins some don't, it's hard to confirm which side should initiate, some will show as an address until you click them at which point they'll become a name but you realize you took over neighbour's movie, etc etc etc! :)

If there's a way to create a priority list, a automatic connect or manual connect list, or create any kind of sophisticated rules for Bluetooth, I'm not aware of it.

Chip design is essentially programming and be done by a small team and a company willing to put up the capital for having the chips fabbed and put into use.

China is a special case as it has identified a series of "chokehold industries" that can be used by the US to constrain Chinese growth. Chips, the highend semiconductor industry, is the most prominent as it was used to constrain and limit Huawei. But it also covers things like databases, operating systems and high quality screws.

For each of these industries, there are a number of Chinese companies developing alternatives to Western products with some kind of state support.

Having ByteDance participae in this shows the depth of the effort as ByteDance is probably one of most Western-orientated Chinese tech companies.
Fingerprinting requires there to be a purpose of identifying an individual device, and is done by collecting multiple data points that in aggregate are a unique combination.

Just knowing you have a font or TeamViewer, like just knowing your IP or viewport size, isn't fingerprinting your device.
Make of this what you will: North Carolina’s cities used to have remarkably developed streetcar networks[1].

It is depressing and frustrating to see public authorities attempt to recreate the successes of public transport on fundamentally inefficient, commons-hostile substrates.

Taxing activities that have negative externalities is a positive use of taxation.

It's better than forbidding such behavior for many reasons. The simplest reason is that it's better to make revenue dis-incentivizing something bad (pollution) as opposed to dis-incentivizing something good (income).
EV fees are already much higher than the state gas tax they replace in many places, especially considering the extra sales tax on the battery, tax on electricity, and even personal property tax on the battery. The idea EVs get a free pass is a myth.

actually banks are one of the worst ways to store money for real emergencies. In the event of a bad recession you will quickly find the banks are more fragile than you thought.

Multiple times in history people who thought the banks couldn't fail saw they crashed hard.

Furthermore as other posters said, inflation can make you money worthless quickly.

If you want an emergency fund, and I mean societal collapse proof funds, get physical wealth and store it.

Silver and gold have been useful in times of war, people who lived through the bosnian genocide said they used physical wealth that was still useful to get necessities.

I am not trying to be a prepper nut, but its good to prepare somewhat for a bad recession or a problem with violence that could happen.

just get a little, a few bars, and you are set incase anything goes wrong.

It'll never go bad in value, it'll never be irretrievable due to financial problems, it'll never be destroyed by rot.

But can JavaScript check whether the protocol handler is installed? Or can it only attempt to use the protocol handler, then give the user if-then-else instructions to manually handle the case where it's not installed? Remember, a remote support product has to assume that the user receiving support doesn't have the knowledge or energy to go through a complex setup process, which is presumably a digression from whatever problem they were having in the first place.
Or worse, buying a touchscreen car stereo unit from China, that's basically an Android tablet running on bottom-of-the-barrel hardware, and its Bluetooth headset mode switches to fucking 64 kbit/s CVSD which sounds like an 8 KHz phone line plus added "clipping" sounds from slope overload distortion.
Thankfully that EU initiative failed. They wanted the industry to adopt micro-usb as the standard, which would have sucked and would be worse than the situation today
No, obviously not. Previous theories without dark matter (or MOND) aren’t sufficient to explain what we can observe. So additional complication is necessary.

Magnus isn't stopping. He's playing chess everywhere else, at tournaments all over the world. He's pursuing his goal of a 2900 rating (he currently has the world record for his peak rating, though he's dropped a bit from that).

He's just not playing in the FIDE World Championship because he dislikes the process.
> But there is a downside, it uses more power.

It's less power than loading a one more line of markup in the browser. Do you throttle the size of webpages in the interest of power? That's as ridiculous a "downside" as having to type one more letter. https has both practical tooling advantages and security advantages. Specifically, if you're in a network (or country) that is known for tampering with network traffic, https is a well tested preventative measure.
Aside from the safety factor, tires do have an expiration date, like with most things tires are rated for time and mileage. ie 5 years or 50,000 miles

Now most people only replace them at the milage limit like their oil because they run out their miles faster but for some people (like me) I tend to replace things on time more often because I do not drive that much
I think it’d be pretty bad to penalize electric cars based on weight squared unless fossil fuels are eliminated from transportation. Then I agree.

Some ideas for rule changes that would make a draw less probable:

1. Make it so that repeating a position is not a legal move
2. Remove castling as a legal move

Or, if the rules of the game stay the same, change the tournament format radically:

3. Force specific openings like they do in the computer chess tournaments. Both players play as white and black. Select positions that are far from equal.
I don't like the "simpler, more innocent" phrasing, at least if we consider the innocent ~ naive connotations. It obfuscates that not spending resources on attacks and the perpetual defenses that would render the attacks useless make the system multi-agent optimal as long as those actors don't have extreme future discounting - i.e. as long as they don't try to maximize short-term gains at the expense of making the system less valuable for everyone.
And the protocols started out in such an environment where it wasn't really "innocent" to not waste huge amounts of engineering on defenses, it was the sensible thing to do.
The distinction is the fundamental difference between mental and physical effort.

An athlete can spend all day in the gym and then grab a shower and roll into bed. They may be sore as hell from head to toe but they will be so exhausted they can just pass out and get a great night's sleep. They also get the benefit of endorphins which make them feel good and rewarded for doing their exercise.

On the other hand, a chess player spending all day going over variations and practicing is going to have a difficult time sleeping with all of those lines and positions flying around in their head. They will be mentally exhausted but still active and alert. It is an absolutely miserable experience. So to prevent it you need to cut back on the hours which means spreading out the preparation over many days/weeks/months. It can also get very boring because you don't get the same rewards you get from playing and winning games. The only reward comes when you finally get to the WC match and then you actually have to win or it's utterly heartbreaking.
Ships move such long distances that batteries will be very expensive and will eat a large proportion of the useful load. Ammonia fuel cells, or, as stopgap, even ammonia burned in diesel engines could be a much better fit.

I am extremely puzzled by true wireless bluetooth headphones to a point where it's hard to find high-end wired bluetooth headphones.

True wireless have so many drawbacks:
- lower battery life yet people got convinced that they last long thanks to powerbank, I meant ,,case" which you need to carry.

- bulkier so they stick out of ear one way or another. They fall down easily when changing t-shirts, huddies ..
- easy to lose

12 games - or even 14, since the last WC (games, not "matches", excuse the nitpick) isn't long, it's short. There's never been a shorter format for chess WC. And this is precisely WHY players don't take any risks - because dropping even a single point means there won't be many chances left for equalising the score again.

> a sovereign government has no need of revenue in the first place.

Please explain this. Are you suggesting governments can just stop taxing, and print the money to pay their debts with no ill consequences?
Sounds like a big fine for Apple.
How does that square with the main point of the article: "The UK government receives tax revenue from drivers of petrol and diesel cars via two key methods: fuel duty, which brings £28 billion a year into government coffers, and Vehicle Excise Duty (road tax), which nets roughly £7 billion. Combined, these sources make up 1.5% of the UK’s GDP and account for around 4% of all tax revenue."
This is a very myopic view of what it’s like for the elderly and less tech savvy. Most aren’t capable of telling the difference and yet they constantly find themselves unknowingly getting scammed. I take it you’ve never had to clean out a horribly malware infested computer for a mother-in-law before?
Or that they need security in the first place... Lacking its own will for some reason I fear we will see similar developments in Europe soon. But even that is not a pressing issue, it is an issue that draws attention and is use for political jousting.
We're talking about system fonts here, not webfonts, so they can differentiate as much as they like with webfonts. Webfonts would still be available. Although they'd also have to go into the per-site cache to prevent sites from fingerprinting by whether or not you already had the font loaded via some other site.

(Web fonts can be quite space-effective, if the site can serve a trimmed-down version that doesn't have the whole unicode space in them. CSS even has support for breaking the font into pieces so if a bit of unicode does slip through on some page you can still go get "the rest" of the font.)
How was getting all manufacturers to agree a "failure"?
I'd like to learn more about that, it seems relevant to my situation. Some context (I'm not implying that this applies to you): we have an (well above average) capable engineer with a hero complex. In the most difficult of situations, he'll dive in and save the day (or night) where everyone else fails. He's also the one in the team who resisted standardisation and automation the most which, in a way, lead in the past to situations where his unique skills were required.
