I wouldn't be upset about my clothes becoming furniture stuffing, I usually wear my clothes until they're not really presentable anyway. I usually cut them up as rags, but I don't go through rags that often, so I inevitably end up throwing clothes away. Had I know that I can give them to a company that will recycle them, I'd definitely prefer that.
No, you can move easily, which is why he could piss off his current leadership without consequence.

Being able to move doesn't mean your current manager will be happy about you moving. The "easy" part of the process means that they just can't do much to sabotage you or your future.
That's exactly the problem. It should be reduced so that the chamber is deliberative again.

Right now it's all for show.
Been using T-mobile ISP, I have some complaints but overall, it does the job. I feel like some money should be put into 5G towers instead. Country wide 5G access + countrywide broadband. Overall a net win IMO.
People want to find these grand narratives. But if you actually look into the data, the real cost are actually mostly related to health care, car ownership and housing police (or city/town planning).

If the US fixed its city planning, stopped pushing every family to have many cars and managed its health care system with even minimal efficiency the data would look much different.

Offshoring is a bad argument, because that has happened in many places to a large extent and the results are not that American.
I don't see how naming a manufacturer would do anything but make me look more biased.

Like I said, I don't work in the field, so it would be pointless for me to try and construct an argument beyond the obvious points that Turkey has weak currency, close vicinity to Europe (i.e. inside Europe), strong defense, abundant natural resources, foreign capital inflows, capitalistic laws and plenty of working-age people. I don't know anything, really.

The author was calling for ideas, and it's just an idea. Take it, or leave it. Of course, there's unique problems to deal with too, which you wouldn't find in China (threat of political instability and "boş ver attitude" being two of them). But nothing lasts forever and the world's honeymoon with China is no exception.
Hah, my bad. I meant Conways’ law
I haven't been to fast foods in a handful of years but was in a hurry last week and stopped at BK. A large combo was a few coins short of $15! Whoa. This used to be about ~$6.

If that's the norm I don't see how fast food will survive. Instead I'll go to the authentic taqueria next door, which used to be about double the cost for lunch (so I didn't go so often) but now it is actually cheaper and much better.
I don’t know where exactly the line should be drawn. My comment was simply an answer to the question “Why should speech which calls for the death or other specific violence against anyone be allowed?”

Yes, developers are able to leverage WKWebview on iOS and a Webview on Android.

One thing about both webviews is that there are callbacks with these implementations that developers can choose to open a link in the embed webview or not. It might be useful for privacy/security for Apple/Android to force developers to allow-list a domain (like iOS's Associated Domains) or such that an embedded webview can load (besides local html and files). It might be something in addition to the developer's callback.

A federal fund to agglomerate dispersed people into small villages where the utilities can be provided at a reasonable price is a better use of tax funds than massive subsidies for existing settlement patterns. We already had another article on here today about how the feds are throwing ~$10k per household at some Michigan ISP to hook up people who live miles from anywhere.
Imagine saying, "only allowing one side of an issue to be discussed is discourse. Discussing the entire issue isn't"

What a joke.
That's a very understandable decision from an app developer POV. But the fault lies with the OS and ideally should be solved by it. This isn't a problem on real computers.

It's like putting a toilet in every room because people can't find the bathroom when maybe the bathroom shouldn't have been hidden down in a hatch under a rug. But you can't easily rebuild your house, and now there's shit everywhere, so what is one to do?
Shouldn't an in-app browser whose sole purpose is to read an app EULA/TOC/etc. always employ a domain whitelist, regardless of parental controls?
> How does blockchain help with this? The problem isn't that there isn't a record of your purchase on a ledger somewhere, the problem is that the software environment in which your purchase is meaningful is no longer running.

The reason that environment no longer runs is because the company decides it's no longer profitable to run it. Blockchains build incentives to run that environment into the operation, so as long as there are users willing to pay, and the environment is efficient enough, in theory the environment should never not be running.

This gets stronger if you share that environment with multiple games.

> Your "much more straightforward idea" can be summarized as "use them to make money".

Playing poker with friends and being able to use any game's purchased assets in that game doesn't have to be about money. It certainly wouldn't be for me, cause I suck at poker.
They're satellites, they move. You can't "provision" customers like that. You provide a constellation that gives some level of coverage at some level of reliability as a function of latitude, and that's what you get.

Now, OK, maybe that's not going to be acceptable to regulators. And... that's sort of a shame given the fact that satellite services are available literally everywhere. How many people not served by existing rural broadband RDOF recipients would love to have a subsidized Starlink antenna?

I really don't see how this is helping anyone except a handful of cable companies actually doing deployments. The vast bulk of the rural subscriber base that fund is intended to assist aren't going to get anything out of it.
Anyone familiar with the disastrous history of Final Cut Pro X will simply say ‘well, that makes sense’.

Final Cut Pro X’s initial release could not be interpreted as anything but completely disrespectful and ignorant of the needs of 7’s extremely loyal user base.

Directors and editors would potentially lose hundreds to thousands of dollars on invested plugins for 7 only to find none of them would work for this ‘upgrade’.

Previously existing project files from 7 no longer worked with X, meaning there was no way to take advantage of any of the ‘new features’ (everything was a downgrade, realistically) with old projects.

FCPX is one of the biggest black marks on Apple’s long history of dealing with the creative market they claimed to prioritize.

The introduction was shameful at best.

It’s alright now, but they’ll never recover in the industry. We’re over it.

I have industry friends who still did the same (using FCP7) for years before eventually just switching to DaVinci or Premiere.

There are also serious issues with FCPX and the broadcast standard - meaning using FCPX in broadcast television, etc - a lot of industry standards - is a lot tougher. This issue was only acknowledged this year.

FCPX is one of the most baffling, poorly-thought-out product launches Apple ever attempted.

Similarly, at the time; iMovie’s release after ‘iMovie HD 6’ was as feature-rich as driving through the Canadian prairies. I really couldn’t understand the direction.
I challenge you to go to Sweden, travel threw it for 4 weeks and then honestly say its a society that is at each other throat.
I get more than that on the RV plan in an oversubscribed area (jumped the queue).

I’d be lucky to get 5/1.5 from frontier, and their DSL service in the area goes down every few weeks.

This seems like a case of lobbyist-induced double standards.

I am trying to be a bit humble since my experience is definitely limited, but to be clear, I do have some experience with an XT clone at least. Still, I haven't written very much code targeting an XT machine, and especially, I have never mucked with CGA beyond BIOS routines. I've got to imagine that even Commander Keen had to be doing some pretty hot tricks, even though the only novel technique I'm aware of is the EGA adaptive tile refresh one, not anything CGA.

Of course, it's never too late to write some wares for XT... I'd prefer to get an actual XT for that, though. I'd fear that if I only ever tested on emulators or clone machines, I would end up writing code that doesn't work on any actual XT :)
A bit of a tangent, but...

I'm actually quite excited by the implications of the changing economic outlook for the world. Companies are finally catching up with the reality that infinite growth and unending production are not sustainable business models (and a great way to kill your brand via diminishing returns). We might actually get to see a return to quality thinking (in the Juran/Deming sense) where things are actually made to last, not just be discarded and replaced with something new every X days/months/years.

Imagine a world/environment where people weren't hopped up on perpetual growth, could actually focus and iterate on an idea for a long(er) time, and a chart going sideways for a quarter or two wasn't coupled with an ulcer. Not only would living conditions improve for a lot of people, quality of life would skyrocket (both material and psychological/emotional).
The problem, as others have pointed out, is that they are not being original and the fun is gone. How many times is a standup bit funny? Is the majority of content just posting memes? Do you have any technical content which doesn't throw a bunch of memes in for the imagery?

It's not that I don't enjoy memes, the Ukraine Meme Force is making epic ones, but I don't want this from the companies I purchase from dominating my feed.

I've come to enjoy doing things other than coding more than I enjoy writing code, but they don't pay nearly as well when done professionally. I'd rather code for four hours and then do those things with the free time.
This might be the case for k-12 and maybe lower level courses, but this was _definitely_ not the case for when I was taking group theory, real analysis, etc.

With that said, someone else in the comments mentioned that while it might seem there's an emphasis "regurgitation" it's mainly because going beyond that and really digging into the why of things is vastly out of scope for the class.
Says someone who doesn’t have kids. I really don’t think it’s a big empathetic leap to
imagine that young teens would want to take part in the modern world, and that includes some access to the internet.

And no, constant supervision is not an appropriate answer. Teens will want to research some things without their parents’ knowledge. That’s normal.

But it doesn’t mean that we should throw our hands in the air and make no effort to protect the majority of kids from the worst of the internet. Yes some bright sparks may find ways to circumvent the controls, but it at least makes it harder for them to send a disguised goatse link to their friends.
That's a simplistic analysis. Quality chains almost certainly have a life longer than 500 miles, even taking into account premature failures.

Regardless, aren't you suggesting here that we should use chains and not strings because their upper bound of lifetime is higher?
"Hate speech", "misinformation", "defending democracy" are other meaningless umbrella terms just as much as "terrorism", weaponised for the same ends.
> from a bin containing nothing but water and salts, a fully-formed plant emerges

From water, salts, and a crapton of airborne carbon. The plant takes electrons from the water and adds it to carbon dioxide to make glucose. Most of the plant is the carbon, so the plant is mostly made from air.

I am confrontational because your "confusion" is just stupid concern trolling. Do you think that it is important to get more people to be less dependent on Big Tech? Then here is an operating system that works pretty well. This is what you need to be telling people, not how you think that the name is bad. Stop worrying about the "marketing", and just use and promote better alternatives. By being and acting self-conscious about something that does not matter, you are not collaborating at all.
I feel like I am taking crazy pills having this conversation. Regular evil is letting the air out of someone's tires or lying to your spouse, not wasting away the life savings of hundreds of people.

They are. This is a hypothetical discussion.
I never really understand these articles and many of their points.

The claim gets made that exporting the clothes to developing nations is bad, but it’s usually products made for developing nations that can be low quality from the factory gate.

Claims are often made that 2nd hand clothing disrupts a local clothing industry, but in reality, it’s going to be difficult to compete with global manufacturing. Clothing isn’t a strategic industry imo.

And cotton is a plant product, nothing wrong with burning or composting it.

Clothing probably ranks as one of the most re-used consumer “products”, both by the initial buyer and subsequent buyers.

A real issue is crude oil based fabrics and blends and their recyclability and/or emissions when incinerated.

For me, old stuff becomes rags, which I’d otherwise have to buy “new”.
I would recommend against building a score and always stick to booleans whenever possible. Having a numeric score means you're trying to extract nice-to-have data points, and in my experience this always leads messy codebases and false assumptions.

If you allow "slightly unhealthy" scrapers in production, almost inevitably the state of your scrapers will always be "slightly unhealthy". Save yourself the trouble and always treat it as either "it works" or "it doesn't work", no in between. Your first iterations will probably break every day, but eventually you'll get to a happy place.
How much are you willing to pay for a solution?

If the manager has done a good job he/she has hired people that are more knowledge and experienced in their specialization fields then the manager.
This is only true for "intellectual" work though, if the employees do physical work, like laying bricks, you can measure performance on how many bricks where laid.

For example, one employee might have spent 3 weeks carefully reading code to find a bug. Not a single code push for a whole month. And might not even have found the bug. But likely found lots of unused code that everyone been too scared to touch. So if you're measuring performance by LOC written, that person could end up on the nagive.

I don’t believe the UK has the concept of a “hate speech crime”. Rather, first a crime must be committed, and then that crime may be classified as motivated by hate, which attracts higher penalties.

Also, intent matters, and it is a defense if the allegedly criminal conduct can be proven to be reasonable.

It's funny, but as someone who's played it for a year, and yes, has spent $20, Genshin has remarkably non-in-your-face monetization. Plenty of games launch where the first screen is a sales pitch, but you actually have to look for it there. It's successful because it's a very well-put-together game experience-- smooth controls, plenty of content, a reasonable level of handholding. You've got to convince people they're actually going to have fun before dropping them in front of a credit card entry form.
100% agree on reducing!

Still, are you suggesting that clothes should be kept forever?

Because whether you're talking about someone who discards entire wardrobes at the end of every season, or someone who rotates the same very-few items until they no longer fit, at some point people still need to do something with old clothes.
'too many employees, but few work'.. this is misleading.. given the spin, you might think this indicates that they hired these people to do specific line-of-business things, and they didn't get done. However, what actually happened was they hired a bunch of people to do.. something.. but they weren't sure what.. all they were told is that they need to hire them.. then they realized they might have 'a down quarter or two'.. apple's killing their advertising business, and they're thinking.. 'hey wait a minute.. our headcount's gone up.. no one in middle-management seems to know what they're doing (which is actually our fault.. but we can't say that), so we'll call the people we hired lazy unmotivated clowns and get rid them that way.' Cue the high-fives.
> I don’t see how giving an up-leveled employee time to adjust to a new responsibility scope is a bad thing.

It's not a bad thing, but the parent you are replying to never said otherwise. They were talking about a fake performance rating that is given for political reasons.
That doesn't make them related.
At the time (2009 or so) it was hard to leave SRE and be a SWE because SRE had a hard time keeping employees given the oncall and nature of the role. My mistake was to tell people it was easy to leave SRE, which the head of SRE didn't like. He called my new manager and chewed him out. To his credit, my new manager told me I wasn't in trouble, but to be more circumspect when dealing with predatory leadership.

> Name one other thing that went down.

Christ. I didn't expect the third degree about an abstract statement. Surely you agree that sometimes there are things that go down in price, at least temporarily (since it apparently doesn't count as "going down in price when something goes up and then goes down but not as much as it went up). The entire point was that inflation is a weighted average, not a statement about the specific price change of any particular good.

> Literally everything is 20% more expensive.

If you are going to be so pedantic about my post, at least be pedantic about yours. It is absolutely not the case that everything is 20% more expensive.
> the item may as well have been centralized to begin with.

that’s exactly the point. this adds nothing new or interesting for any party involved (except the scammer and their marketing people)
Go to a shop to fix the problem, but have the basic tools and knowledge to make the temporary repairs needed to be able to ride the bike home or the shop.

working for a company, 100 % semantic web, integrating many, many parties for many years now, all of it rdf.

- you get used to turtle. one file can describe your db and be ingested as such. handy.
- interoperability is really possible. (distributed apps)
- hardest part is getting everyone to agree on the model, but often these discussions is more about resolving ambuigties surrounding the business than about translating it to model. (it gets things sharp)
- agree on a minimum model, open world means you can extend in your app
- don't overthink your owl descriptions

- no, please no reasoners. data is never perfect.

- tooling is there
- triple stores are not the fastest

pls, not another standard to fix the semantic web. Everything is there. More maturity in tooling might be welcome, but this a function of the number people using it.
Cool, except... What alternatives are there? With the caveat that phone calls (roaming too), SMS and mobile data must work reliably. Is there an alternative that provides this? Librem 5 maybe? Last I checked neither PinePhone nor Purism were there yet.

While some would argue that private companies have the right to censor users without exception - when private companies form a near-monopoly on artistic expression online, they should ethically inherit the government's ethical responsibility to protect freedom of expression.

In this case this isn't only a violation of the users' freedom of expression - it is also a clear anti-trust violation as they are abusing their monopoly position for illegal anti-competitive tactics.
