The tight closure with just about zero clearance and no bezel is a significant part of the difficulty.

Anything in there, even being closed gently and you notice at the first sign of resistance and correct it - has probably cracked the screen.

Charger/cable/pen tip is common, but even a paper clip could be enough. There's no audible crack and you think nothing of it until the next time you take it out of your bag and the display is broken. That said, this sort of thing will typically have a point of impact/multiple cracks, not just one straight line.

Plastic webcam covers will also do this, just less consistently - they hold the display open a bit and concentrate all the force of the closed lid there.
Aw man, that sucks. Not having rumble is a disadvantage for GeForce NOW and Xbox Game Pass on Nvidia Shield TV. I thought that built-in Android support would lead to support in Shield TV's firmware.
No need to do that nowadays, the SEO manipulators will take care of it... you'll never find it on page 1 of google.

I’ve just explained why, using your spectrum, it’s on the lower end.

I completely understand that guns are difficult to understand for non gun owners, they simply don't do any research. Couple that with the amount of research required to be knowledgeable takes weeks or even months for even the most competent of us. But imagine what you sound like to someone who is knowledgeable. It’s like someone challenging a PhD on knowledge. You should know what you’re talking about and if you don’t keep your mouth shut.

If you want actual visual proof that the AR-15 is on the lower end of the spectrum then watch this video, timestamped at multiple different locations:

AR-15: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5QNTnMO5xU&t=9m53s

M14 (bigger than AR-15): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5QNTnMO5xU&t=10m41s

Lever Action (still more power than an AR-15): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5QNTnMO5xU&t=11m25s

12 gauge shotgun (and still, more destructive power than an AR-15. Also comes recommended by President Biden!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5QNTnMO5xU&t=11m53s

In fact, the AR is so underpowered in today's world it's being replaced by the military (this gun has 2x the power of an AR-15): https://www.sigsauer.com/blog/us-army-selects-sig-sauer-next...
That’s too cliche. As a counterpoint, HP and IBM are US firms and also get no shit done. And Japanese groups have their share of jerks, in spades.

Issue is not jerks vs consensus, it’s way more complicated than that.
I mean WeWork still exists and is still a unicorn so I don't think it's fair to call it a "collapse."

Certainly Adam is good at something as he pretty much willed WeWork into existence from nothing.

In the pat seven years I traveled the western part of the US a lot with my camper and if I had to live in the US (I am Dutch and currently live on Curacao) I would probably go for Frisco, Colorado. But I am pretty outdoorsy so that’s a big part of why I would like to live there. Not to big, not to small, year round outdoor activities, an hours drive from Denver and an overall good vibe.
> The question of whether new observations falsify the current theory is completely separate from the creation of a better theory.

No, it isn't. Theories don't get "falsified" except in rare cases and in the idealized fanciful histories of some philosophers of science. The idea that you can run one critical experiment that, if the results come out a certain way, will falsify a theory, is a myth.

Scientific models like our current hot Big Bang model make thousands of predictions about observed data. No model ever matches all the data with 100% accuracy. But if there is no other competing model that matches the data better, we do the best with what we have. Saying the Big Bang model is "falsified" if the error in some prediction vs. data is over some threshold is useless if we don't have a better model to replace it with.
1900 is an impressively small upper bound of affected users, implying that Signal and Twilio got onto this very, very quickly. Seems like the response was swift. I would be interested in learning more about the process that led to such readiness at either company.
I moderate a geo sub. I've backed away from it because it is thankless and you see the worst comments all the time. And then comments like this that assign bad faith to any decision you don't like.

I signed up to do it because I didn't want my geo sub to be swamped by spam, trolls and the like, and at the time I was online two or three hours a day.

I do think some subs have terrible mods, and that some larger subs are manipulated and astroturfed by organizations we don't know about by supermods. But give some of the smaller subs some slack.
I have tried Open Place Reviews, but I am not sure on how to use it. Maybe the review is not the same as Google Map's review?

AdRev, company complicit in this fraud for 5 years, wont be touched.

>2017 In an email, Gabriel asked AdRev’s Worstell and Becker if their company would ever ask MediaMuv to provide proof of ownership for its catalog, writing, “It seems that MediaMuv may not have rights to much of the content it has been claiming.” Worstell replied that MediaMuv was “fully aware” of its publishing errors and that it wouldn’t happen in the future.

>2018 In March 2018, Becker replied to one of Gabriel’s emails, writing, “Given the volume of repertoire [MediaMuv] deal[s] with vs. issues, we feel pretty comfortable. Plus, we are just the admin, and there’s already so much negative crap out there about us that’s not true, so we just let this stuff bounce off our backs. But we keep a tight eye on this account and lately have been only increasing in comfort level.”

>2021 Becker became a “strategic advisor” for AdRev one month after the indictment against Teran and Batista was filed.

>2021 Though a federal grand jury in Arizona indicted Teran and Batista for 30 counts of wire fraud, conspiracy, money laundering and aggravated identity theft on Nov. 16, 2021, investigators found that AdRev made another direct deposit of $285,344 to a MediaMuv-associated bank account two weeks later. Even after the duo had been caught, Teran still pocketed money from AdRev.
How did so much become buried in such a short (geologically speaking) amount of time?
That statement directly contradicts the article.

A number of accounts would have been accessed were it not for 2FA.

The best password won’t save you if a reset email is intercepted.

Something you have plus something you know should be what we cone to expect from any service that deals with anything of importance.
> The dark matter crowd was able to convince quite a few people without hurdling such a high bar

I don't know where you're getting this from. Dark matter models make lots of testable predictions, and they currently match the overall data set (which includes many different observations, not just the galaxy rotation curves that are most often mentioned) better than any other models.

> not to mention stuff like string-theory

Here I agree: string theory has not made a single testable prediction.

Because in most democracies the median is what you optimize for, not the extremes, since poor and rich alike only get 1 vote each.

Additionally there are knock-on effects where lack ofgood average healthcare tends to reduce ecconomic efficiency as sick people are bad at working.
She’s a far cry from the median juror, and the reasoning behind Twitter’s statistical soundness is simple and obviously correct, unless there are surprising facts to be uncovered.

Unfortunately they have this weird dichotomy where they have some of the most outstanding and ahead of the curve cloud services that make it worth it.
This IoT Core thing is a shit show and I imagine they will introduce a partner who will do it instead of them.

But there is nothing like BigQuery on the market elsewhere, Cloud Run and PubSub are standout services that others have tried to emulate and haven't got near it, plus everything on GCP doesn't feel like either an afterthought (AWS) or a cobbling together of mismanaged and old-version open source services (AWS & Azure).

7 years ago when I moved into my new house, I ended up getting the Porter Cable kit. Previously I had gotten DeWalt and felt like I had under utilized them. So I stepped down to the P-C. And honestly I've been super happy with them, despite having used them much more than I expected (DIYing a lot, in to the studs bathroom remodel now). One nice thing about them is I was able to get some refurb drills off ebay for $20 each, nice to have a couple spares, chuck up two bits or the like. I did destroy one clutch by mixing mortar though.

Fairly limited tool selection though. I think I have almost all of them, maybe a dozen.

I'm thinking of starting to switch to a new brand, just to get more tool selection. I love the Milwaukee, but I'm not sure I can justify the price for DIY use.

So I'm thinking about the Ryobi One+. Lots of tools there...

The FPRI (Foreign Policy Research Institute) has insightful interviews with people close to the cauldron of events. At year 75 since colonial independence there is very fine interview with a historian of Pakistan which can be contrasted with what deskjob handlers have to say.
Hey I also took a big chance about a decade ago buying a package of nine buildings that no one wanted. They were fully occupied, no leases, as-is where-is, no FHA, poorest zip code in the state, democrat city. I had boots on the ground on day 1 and it felt hopeless at times. From people setting up lawn chairs in front of the houses to deal drugs, to packs of homeless loitering on the front stoops, to getting fined by the city for things out of my control, etc. I managed to exit 2/3 of the properties by seller financing to the tenants I learned were cash rich, credit poor. Also the values eventually shot up because another investor started renovating the abandoned mill buildings into loft apartments.

Well, there was certainly a similar panicked “sky is falling and society will end as we know it” vibe back then with it with some people, not unlike some of the more rabid climate change activists rhetoric I have seen.

I’ll readily admit that I take some of the more dire climate change predictions with a grain of salt because of my Y2K experience. It was a damn nice time to make some money off the panic though.

>There’s a policy for everything.

The other thing to mention is that regardless of policy, humans are humans.

If you're acting like a Karen to the guy behind the counter, they are going to give you the absolute bare minimum service. They know the policy, and they know exactly how it can be applied to make sure you have a shit day.

If you help them help you, they'll often go above and beyond to make sure you're looked after.

The simplest and most effective strategy I've found, both as a customer and a support rep, is to simply explain the problem you're experiencing at a physical level, keeping emotion and opinion out of it. Then cooperate with them and trust them to do their job.

Support people are almost biologically engineered to want to solve your problems, but do not appreciate being treated as a punching bag or emotional dumpster.

"My trackpad stopped working randomly, do you reckon we can fix this?" is far more likely to get a good response than "My trackpad is broken, I spent $1000 on this computer just 6 months ago! I can't believe you'd sell me such shit!"
Yes, and much of that small, single-digit percentage of charity hospital expenses will be that sort of care. It's a rounding error on their books. Stitches are costly whether you're in the ER or in the ICU after surgery. Forcing poor folks to rely on the ER for treatment is silly, and needlessly expensive, but it's hardly the primary driver of healthcare cost rises.

> You probably can't evaluate your productivity by yourself

I’m going to go out on a bit of a limb here, and say if you can’t evaluate your own productivity, you aren’t trying.

If you are running any kind of scrum, or you are tracking estimates on tickets, you can create a velocity for yourself. You can track that velocity over time - weeks, months, years.

You can track the velocity of your peers, or at least your entire team and compare your velocity to that.

You can look at how many features you implement.

You can look at how many code reviews you do and compare that against how many code reviews your peers are doing.

And finally, you can calibrate your own measurements against your bosses feedback on your performance.

There’s a lot of data to be tracked, and so I really do believe that if you don’t know your own productivity in relation to your past productivity, or to your peers productivity, it’s because you are not collecting the data, not because there’s no data to collect.
It’s sad to look at my sleep tracker app and see the jump in sleep quantity and quality starting in March 2020 that will soon have to end because some exec has nothing to do if he’s not walking around interrupting peoples’ work.
At the same time- When I moved out of the city during covid it was incredibly freeing to not have access to my books. It was kind of like giving myself a blank slate to read new stuff and get out from under the backlog. So maybe another benefit of physical books is when you go away they are not there.
And yet, there is no PGP replacement in existence despite it having died a thousand deaths and having promised replacements for decades.

> So surely then there has to be some technical limitation because what other legitimate reason is there?

It's like people aren't reading the whole thread and just responding to specific comments they don't like. The premise of Signal, or at least what's made it practically useable, is that the short identifiers are immediately available and verifiable on a mobile device. When I first reach out to someone on Signal I know the person I'm reaching out to is the owner of the identifier I used unless their phone carrier is actively compromised when I exchange the first message. To Signal's users, this is an acceptable compromise. On top of that, I don't need to do a key exchange dance every time I want to talk to a new person because I have a contacts list of their phone numbers, which Signal has verified and bound to their keys.

Signal is really pretty simple: trade key exchange parties for the phone numbers already acquired though countless years of past parties and have locally grown crypto sans intrusive cloud services. And, do it explicitly not-for-profit so there's no possible motivation to abuse this contract with users in service of shareholders.

Obviously Signal could implement whatever random people felt the need for at any given moment. But they don't and it doesn't seem like whining about it is changing anything. If you don't like that then go use one of the many alternatives or build a replacement. I'm honestly surprised nobody's built one at this point. Literally spin up a signal server, make a build of their mobile app, and let users paste in pubkeys instead of phone numbers when starting a message. See how many people use your product. Or just change the phone number db to a shortname db and remove the verification step.

Yes, these conversations are exhausting. What's even more exhausting is the perpetual outrage from "hardcore" "security" "nuts" and absurd anons driveling on about why all the practical solutions that work for users are nonsense and how they could be made "better" but who balk at actually building the solution they think the world deserves. It's a tale as old as time in the security community, sadly.

It's funny, Moxie actually did something about it and it still isn't good enough. Signal is probably the closest thing to a PGP+email replacement we've ever had. What more do people want?
Did you read what you wrote? The pattern is the health data...
You're skipping off to a different argument.

You asserted "Just because it's 'free' doesn't mean you aren't paying plenty for it", but the places where it's "free" are paying less. You're highlighting issues specific to the American system in an apparent attempt to argue against European-style systems, which is... odd.
Hmm, wasn't aware that someone found a TSO sysctl that actually does something.

In regular joe-schmo parlance, an emulator would be something that translates a hardware machine into software that is run on a different machine. Hardware being the important word here. Performance has nothing to do with how people use the term emulator in regular parlance.
> Why?

Computing freedom: it should be law. Clauses like "you can't reverse engineer" and "you can only connect via our software" should be null and void.

You should be able to demand that your computing freedom be respected. We should all be able to run whatever software we want to interact with their servers.
I was banned from a pro-ccp sub and reported to reddit (and received a warning for this). My comment was literally, "Finding a subreddit like this is like discovering the Upside Down from Stranger Things". That's it. No back and forth, no other comments. Simply those words. For that reddit threatened me (someone active on the site for 14 years, with hundreds of thousands of their "karma", a subreddit moderator and who has "reddit gold") with a ban.
This only works if you're leveraging your judgement through other people. The people who put you in a position to make the meaningful judgement are just as important. For example, if the person who made the monitoring system that you're using to inform your decision didn't mess it up, then they're just as responsible for the good outcome. Same with the people who made the parts that they used to build the system and on and on.

It's still the same thing: Taking credit for other people's work and claiming it as your own. It's also probably a good reason to democratize decision making when there's a lot on the line. Because, ultimately, everyone suffers from the bad decisions that people in power make.
What 'exactly'?

Mina [0][1] is a 'blockchain' that doesn't rely on a third party server and is small enough to run on a phone and on smaller devices; making it extremely decentralized to run a node on almost anything and anywhere.

Like many nonsensical comments like the grandparent one who immediately posted an unfounded and sweeping generalization, one must recognise that not all blockchains are all the same and some operate better or are more decentralized than others.

Yep, we built a super minimal ipfs replacement - ipfs-nucleus (https://github.com/peergos/ipfs-nucleus) with added block level access control, which is also post-quantum.
Separate issue: on the internet, it is near impossible to tell good faith discussion from bad when a comment makes any kind of snarky tone or logical fallacy. And there is so much trash on the internet that it can be easy to delete really shitty low effort comments - you may imagine some young troll getting their kicks on stirring things up. But it may be just as likely they're just someone with some bad ideas who can't do rhetoric well.

And so when you delete their comment, you think "yes, cleaned up a troll" while the person who tried to engage in conversation just sees censorship.

Upvotes and locking comments are better than deleting or banning. Again, Slashdot has the best moderation and filter system.
I completely agree. That's also why I think it's important to paint a picture that's as accurate and faithful as possible.
Some reproducible builds with a confidential VM and use the digest of build artifacts might work.

That's exactly what you will do - invest time, and energy, a lot of both because AWS is a victim of its own legacy. Everything is an after-thought, everything is messy and its genuinely painful to use on anything except some basic UI driven functionality.

EC2 and S3 and some basic hosting stuff is fine but newer services such as AWS Glue, Athena etc are a horrendous mess for anything other than 101 type stuff.
In this case I'm not blaming the tools, but exactly who you said. Short sighted micro management.

I didn't really learn formally, but through play. I spent a few years wrenching on them at the start of my career, and I had a lot of free time in that job to try things. As part of my work, I ran and used the software to test it a lot, so I quickly got a feel for critical paths and then optimized around them. I borrowed a lot of ideas from other software that I've liked in my life. I kind of had a feel for what looked nice and naturally felt out industry practices around grid layouts, etc., and the result was something quite conventional. I also iterated and ended up improving my code when I learned about better ways of doing things.

I got an octopus of a custom control library out of it, for better or worse, lovingly handmade, not very architecturally clear and that was a thick layer of gold plating on an internal software product used by a handful of people for a medium-large size company that really had no interest or awareness in what our team was building.

So I guess I fall into that category of people who waste time on their first job making bad software but leave as better programmers.
> Tired Light

Is a hypothesis that, as a sole or primary explanation of observed redshifts of galaxies, has been thoroughly debunked in the scientific literature.

> the intergalactic media is not an electromagnetic vacuum

This is true, but it cannot explain the observed data by itself, because the observed data is not "redshifts" by themselves. The observed data is a combination of redshifts, apparent luminosity, and angular size for thousands of observed galaxies. These data have observable relationships that can only be explained by cosmological expansion. If the redshifts were caused solely by dispersion in the intergalactic medium, their relationships with apparent luminosity and angular size would be very, very different. That is a quick summary of the thorough debunking of "tired light" that can be found in the scientific literature over a period of some decades.
