> The Attorney General, the highest ranking law enforcement official in the country, personally reviewed the footage surrounding Epstein's prison block to confirm this for himself.

The Attorney General whose father got Epstein his start in life by hiring him to teach math at the prestigious Dalton School with zero qualifications? The Attorney General who spearheaded much of the coverup and spiking of investigations surrounding Iran Contra? That attorney general?
I do not follow. None of those you mentioned are personal hobby projects, they're the same kind of references you can ask software engineer for. I'm regularly asked to provide at least 2-3 contact points from my previous jobs but that's largely insufficient to get the offer and is most usually done only at the end of the hiring process (meaning that it probably does not pose a big factor).

So, what's the deal? Why have we ingrained serious doubts when it comes to software engineering skills? Why a 10+ year experienced SE must go through a process of "proving" the skills through 5-6 interviewing rounds while a 10+ year experienced doctor doesn't?

I don't think this correlates to job regulations as some seem to be suggesting here but I also don't have a better answer myself. It's intriguing to me overall.
Look here: https://www.fratelli-italia.it/programma.pdf at point 2:

> Ridiscussione di tutti i trattati UE a partire dal fiscal compact e

This seems clear to me, it's just a nice way to say: we would like to exit from UE and Euro.
Up to 6-7% in some cases! Not saying it's not worth it, but it's worth knowing beforehand.
I have unique cards generated for online transactions, and I see this feature with multiple banks here in the UK. It seems mad that this would be considered a bad thing.
If I want "prettiness" I'll go to an art gallery. When I sit down in front of the computer, I typically want to get work done. I want functional first and foremost. Prettiness gets very, very close to a "0" weighting from me in relative terms. Just let me accomplish the damn task I'm trying to accomplish, without getting in the way.

That book might have been relevent in 2005 but throw it out the window now. All anti-Russian sentiment in the world is due to the fact Russia is literally engaging in genocide against Ukrainians, right now.

Correction: for me to get 300k, many people had to aggregate 300k of losses across many different projects.

You make it sound like the market is two participants - me and the guy I took 300k from.

In reality, the market is broad as well as deep. You can lose $10 on one project, make $20 on another, and come out with $10 profit overall. Someone else can reverse that trade and come out with $10 profit as well.
I don't have any special love for Shopify, but I think this is one of the best and most empathetic lay-off messages I've seen. No businessspeak, no buzzwords, no nonsense about great journeys. Total clarity about what's going to happen. Very generous and thought-through benefit package that protects those who are leaving.

Now, just don't tie those benefits to an NDA, and you'll truly be a company I'd look forward to getting fired from, Shopify.

>I kind of wish I kept note of everyone who took part in the scam.

I don't understand those that are vocal with public "threats" like the above.

I remember friends on Facebook with the same idle threats about those not wearing mask. Or those that voted for Trump.

"I see you! I will remember this!"

Ok.
Consider the question "how much time per person per meal do you spend in purchasing, planning, and processing?"

This is where, for me, the amount of effort to try to minimize the per meal cost begins to falter.

My "ok, this is how I do it" is to have two different prepared meal services (one microwave, one conventional) that gets to about $25/day for three meals (my breakfast is cheap). This does have a higher cost, but makes up for it with variety that I otherwise wouldn't have combined with portions that are appropriate and no food waste. The corresponding time savings (about 5 min of prep per day) is also a consideration for me.

While I've got space (and a chest freezer), many single people who are living in apartments have more difficulty with trying to buy larger amounts and limited freezer space.

As an aside, I tend to cook more (slow cooker and a stew that is ~3 meals worth - dinner one day and lunch and dinner the following) in the winter. It may be my appetite preferences or the "I don't want something cooking in the summer", but that's just how my meal preferences tend.
there's no way to prove that the cards bought on amazon account X were used for Mullvad account Y. That would require knowing the codes on the cards that amazon sold you, which no-one would.

all that can be said with certainty is:

1. that these people bought mullvad cards on amazon.

2. these mullvad accounts were paid with cards

All you can say is that 2 is a subset of 1.

If mullvad sells the cards literally anywhere else, then you can't even say that with certainty.
> There are preferences, and those will lead way to eventually a market that picks a winner - maybe, typically, IDK, free market works when it's actually free.

Exactly! We saw precisely this thing with cell phone chargers. Not enough people recognize this.

A healthy dose of market realism is in order - if the market doesn't deliver what people want, it's not the market, it's the people who are wrong.
Yes, as someone from continental Europe, reading this seems a bit like the one eyed leading the blind, hehe.

People don’t actually care about privacy. For those that do, they see a differentiation between privacy (for themselves) versus anonymity (for everyone else).
meal planning is so easy. since covid we do grocery shopping every 6 weeks. it reduces a lot of stress and waste .

foods last a lot longer than you think . eggs last 6 weeks , milk lasts a month and can be converted to yogurt to last another 6 -8 weeks. fruit can be jammed or frozen . veggies cooked and frozen in preparations

it doesn’t take planning so much as being creative and changing the habit of needing to shop frequently
Bitcoin hasn't seen large scale, transactional adoption anywhere, but especially not in any "free" country, where Bitcoin's advantages aren't outweighed by its disadvantages outside of illicit usage.

If it's ever a problem with the Jupyter trademark, you should be able to contact the Jupyter Trademark committee jupyter-trademarks@googlegroups.com. I'm not part of it anymore, but they might be able to help with any TM related thing. It may have been autodetection of the "Jupyter" keyword on a non Jupyter domain ?
I have experience the other way around. AWS was utterly holding us back and we gained a lot of speed when we switched to Azure. Azure has changed a lot over the years though and a lot of features behind a premium tier are now more available to lower cost tiers. Comparing something to 2.5 years ago is a long time in the fast moving cloud world.
You could write a specification you can generate an implementation from. See https://kframework.org for example.
You can deliver the package to a amazon approved distribution center ( I dont know what they call them. Basically a shop where they hold your stuff until you come around and pick it up ). If you want to anonymize it, you can deliver it to some other state's distribution center and drive there to pick it up. Even better is to give a stranger your phone, to go and fetch it from the store, so that your face isnt visible in a CCTV cameras near the store, and while they come back to deliver it to you, you can fake a mugging and "steal" your own phone and the gift card while wearing a PPE kit or something, so that they dont know your dimensions.
Seems like a plus for people that do not want to see advertisements.

Because few people actually care that much about their privacy. Compare the existence of social networks, which exist for the purpose of people being less private.

The vast majority of people want to purchase things as simply and cheaply as possible. And that's going to mean not paying a premium to purchase their money from other people. And since they'd be buying it via their existing non-anonymous means, it wouldn't do anything anyway.

If an economic system already existed, so that people could receive their paychecks in a cryptocurrency and spend it freely at any store, they'd accept that. But anonymity isn't going to be all that much of a draw for anybody who is used to making purchases already via non-anonymous means. The only people who feel compelled to do so are those purchasing things illegally -- which just makes people who would want to purchase things legally even less interested.

tl;dr: Privacy advocates put a lot more weight on anonymity than most people do.
Screen sharing is a bit challenging but possible.
It is not too long when it was impossible.

I have personally a bug when sway does not return from sleep mode, sometimes randomly, and I have to physically power off the pc.
It just shows black screen with backlight on.

I guess the issue is on AMD drivers, but it is likely that it will never be fixed. I have no idea how driver bug can cause this on Wayland but not be an issue elsewhere.
We did some NFT stuff as well. Adding support for NFTs is not that hard to do. Some block chain contracts and some marketing. It definitely didn’t involve significant costs nor the reason for these layoffs.

The issue is the market growth that Shopify saw at the beginning of the pandemic is pulling back. And also we are likely entering into a recession which will also hit them. I am surprised they didn’t cut deeper.
I don’t know if it’s provenance or attention. My gut says attention as many small NFTs projects start out with no provenance, and as the attention around the project builds, so too does the hype and price. This article is worth a read - https://cobie.substack.com/p/tokens-in-the-attention-economy...
This article spends paragraphs claiming it's going to knock down conspiracy theories, then essentially concludes (I think, the writing is interminable) that Epstein was a skilled and systematic blackmailer who worked for the CIA. It doesn't even bother to address the interesting questions of who organized this; what the goals and results were; where the money came from; where the evidence went, etc.

ETA: According to the theory outlined in this post, someone ran a massive blackmail scheme against many of our society's most influential figures with help and backing from the CIA, and then those organizations protected Epstein from prosecution while ensuring that the blackmail evidence was carefully retained and kept out of public view following his death. If even partially true this is the most serious conspiracy theory of our time. Your only interest is in writing a skeptic piece about whether Epstein was murdered?
If that were the case, would they stay for the money when they already have the open door and the money at the new place? Most of the best employee's I've worked with interview regularly. If I managed such employees, I wouldn't consider it abnormal for them to do so.
Do you think the markets for art prints or sports cards are also scams?

Collectable markets behave fundamentally differently from utility good markets so it's often hard to reason about them when you try to apply logic from one type of market to another.

If you're that paranoid, this product isn't for you. You're buying time with monero you mined personally, and for a 10% discount that Mullvad offers.

And realistically, if you're that paranoid, you're not trusting VPNs at all. You're using Tor.
I'm baffled how this seems only to apply to the Ukraine this one time. Any meaningful discussion is labeled "whataboutism" and dismissed.

You will surely agree with me that Russia is not the world's pioneer in wars of aggression. What about (oh no, whataboutism! We can safely dismiss the argument without thinking now) all the other countries that did, and do the same? Should we also dismiss their cultural output?

I'm not trying to diminish the seriousness of Russia's aggression, or how much Ukrainians are suffering. That is not the point. I want to know why you think we should dismiss Dostoevsky but not Shakespeare (to be clear, Shakespeare is just an example. I am not talking specifically about the UK). Basically every great artist and intellectual was part of a war-waging genocidal empire, and many of them pro-regime in varying degrees (Dostoevsky being a good example of the "varying"). Appreciating these people doesn't mean supporting the empires.
I've found recipe books to be the antithesis to meal planning and time/money optimization. To me, "meal planning" is having staples at home--not sitting down on Sunday to write out 7-days worth of meals, going to multiple grocery stores to source all of the ingredients, then prepping for the week. You already know which store, the specific isle to find them, and roughly what it costs.

When cooking from a recipe the whole point is that there's a bespoke ingredient or technique. Sadly, I don't think there's a lot of resources on optimizing your kitchen out there. I think because it's not clearly defined and staple foods are very cultural and personal.

I do think people underestimate the upfront cost of getting the knowledge and skills to run a home kitchen. Once you do it, it's amazingly cheap compared to ordering out and the food is already there. The closest I see is reverence for grandmothers to whip something up or always have things on hand. You can vary the time/costs with your tastes; yogurt, muesli, and whatever fruit is handy or pour cereal and milk. That sounds like way less of a headache to me than going out or having something delivered.

Different things work for different people at different points in their life. I'm glad when people find systems that work for them--it sounds like you have. I just advocate for a low-maintenance system for cooking at home.
Amusingly it is thanks to Wayland i can use Linux on my GPD Win 1 handheld[0] - apparently there is a bug in the video driver that when changing video modes can cause the entire screen to shift several lines (probably some memory offset issue, sometimes it even causes colors to go haywire) that needs a reboot to fix.

However since Wayland (or at last KDE's Wayland implementation) doesn't provide any functionality for changing video modes, the bug isn't triggered when running KDE with Wayland as the latter forces games to use whatever video mode the desktop uses.

Of course that means that games that do not support 1280x720 wont work at all, but that's minor details, about as important as using a lower resolution to get better framerates from the Atom iGPU the device has :-P

(ok, actually might be possible by using gamescope[1], which runs its own Wayland+XWayland compositor inside an SDL window that you can also force to use a specific resolution - again no resolution changes are supported and that uses wlroots - that can be scaled to arbitrary outputs and if the SDL you're using has a Wayland backend to avoid going through the desktop's Wayland compositor's XWayland layer then you may not get that much lag at all - though not sure if there'd be enough memory left for the game after all that :-P)

Because people typically believe any narrative associated with a rising asset price. “This person was early and bullish and has made money so they must understand it.”

The ill-informed association of wealth and genius are age-old and in many ways a necessary ingredient for a bubble to form in the first place.

The same is true on the way down by the way. People nobody listened to because they were incorrectly bearish in a bull market are suddenly entrusted. People who were bullish are disregarded. People believe any scary narrative associated with declining asset prices. This process plays out in a fraction of the time.
Some of the value people associate with provenance comes from the mystery Ave human drama involved in establishing a provenance chain. (Think of Byatt’s Possession or the way a scholarly dispute raises the profile of a work of art.) Any digital record really drains the romance out of the whole process.

My first exposure to Anime was a duped VHS copy of Akira in 1993. Holy cheese and crackers, what an experience. My jaw was dropped the whole time and even during the credits my eyes were glued to the screen. Even as my high school friends got up, turned on the lights and puttered around getting ready to go home I couldn't move I was so transfixed.

It makes sense to me given that permitting office had no incentive to do its job previously.

If I were to guess, most of the time was sitting on various desks.

With a lot of government agencies, processing time is just a function of backlog que.

I had a trivial vehicle title issue and it took 9 months to get resolved. It would move from department to department spending 3 months on a desk in each department.

Each task was a 1 minute assessment, (is a box checked), or sometimes simply forwarding it to another group.

It would have taken much longer, but I spent a dozen hours calling in and convinced the bureaucrats to skip the que a few times.
I live in fear of being told my factory delivered Dell rackable servers have been EFI infected since inception on my network.

It's silly to pretend a BSD OS is going to be immune of the consequences of an EFI which is compromised at birth. Sooner or later there will be a value chain in compromising my OS, through the EFI.

I wish we had better out of band EFI validity checks, based on what the manufacturer thinks should be there, as a reproducible bitstream.
As someone who does handles a lot of gift cards, it's not hard at all to cover the code back up. They sell little peel and stick things online, or it's not hard to make your own. There are people that go around to stores, take unactivated giftcards, scratch off the sticker to get the code, and will then reapply another one and put it back in the store to be bought and activated by someone, meanwhile they are periodically checking whatever website you can see the balance on to see if it's been activated yet so they can use it or sell it out from under you.

So my guess would be Amazon doesn't take returns on giftcards in the first place.
Yes, you make some good points about the purposeful dominance of a certain aspect of Russian culture in Ukraine.

These people don’t mention that Ukraine schools only teach Russian Literature. There was no Ukrainian Literature. No World Literature. They don’t mention that Russian language classes are the default in schools. That many teachers discourage the learning subjects in Ukrainian language. That many Ukrainians do not have any knowledge of their ancestors because of Leaders in the Soviet Union did not want them to have any feeling of nationality.

There is a reason that Russia is funding Russian learning Schools in Kazakhstan.
Theoretically, except 20k would be low for an internship (I had 30k trainee position in about 2007), and 140k is squarely in CTO territory if you're not in FAANG or somesuch top tier place.

My assumption was 40k start/80k senior/120k exceptional/160k moonshot.

As always, as a disclaimer Europe is a big place. I had Central-Northern parts in mind.
Yeah, i think it's a real problem that a lot of cooking writing and education out there is pitched toward hobbyists. You certainly can enjoy cooking (i do!), but it's also fine for it to be a chore that you want to get done as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Very useful content for companies who want to understand the implication of all Stripe's fee layers.
Unless you mean 'so we should jail more of them', GP's making the same point. (Not 'I didn't get where I am today by' tone as I initially read it and suspect you may have.)
> so we can expect more dust from ... brake wear.

Nonsense. EVs and hybrids leverage regeneration for nearly all of their lifetime braking energy use. Its commonplace for EV brake pads to last the life of the vehicle today. Exceptions exist, but those are for particularly hard-braking drivers. Our Prius ran 200k miles on the factory brakes, for example.
I think I played Glider on an educational CD-ROM perhaps, even one about air and science? Or maybe it was just a shareware disc.

OK then: being on the flight log doesn't prove the type of crimes alleged here. It can prove other types of crimes that aren't relevant to this discussion.
