I'm just curious how many people here have been to a money changer in the middle east. I've interacted with them in Iraq and Syria. A dude will stand there with gigantic bricks of currency in a clear box on a cart, including stacks of hundreds. He could easily have 50k+ there.

It's all very safe though. There is some guy standing around the corner with an ak behind a counter, and you can be sure 7.62mm size holes end up in the head of anyone who would try to rob the people doing the exchange. On one occasion the money trader made a very obvious calculation heavily in my favor, that he likely did not intend to make. I tried to walk away quickly with the money, and 3 men chased me down. I'm quite sure if I had stolen the money instead of merely gotten "lucky" they would have chopped an arm off instead of nicely asking to reverse the transaction (which I found wise to do).

The whole thing could be extended to BTC quite easily, and it's been awhile since I've been to the ME but it wouldn't surprise me if they've already added BTC to the mixup. From a western perspective it sounds insane to hear large sums of cash could potentially be traded easily and readily in a relatively "impoverished" nation on the street but for these people it's just regular business in the cash-economy world they live in.

> I can scrape it -- hard -- with metal utensils

> Being able to use metal utensils on a skillet is so nice. I can really scrape food off the pan without worrying about chipping the paint.

The multiple mentions about scraping make me think the author has some unconventional cooking techniques, like using too high of heat or not using enough fat, this should basically never be happening with pans that are even a little bit nonstick.

> after spending $150+ on a all-clad non-stick pan, which died after a year or so of heavy use, I realized this was not the way

If this is referring to the All-Clad hard-anodized aluminum pans then I definitely think something is odd is going on here. I have used these nearly daily for years now, including washing them in the dishwasher, and while they have shown some wear, they are still performing perfectly. They also have a lifetime warranty like the rest of All-Clad's products. They are also not that expensive—currently $70 for a two pack:

https://www.amazon.com/All-Clad-E785S264-Anodized-Nonstick-D...

I have transitioned the opposite direction of the author. I used to use cast iron, and now I never do because of the All-Clad HA1 line. They can be washed in the dishwasher, are much lighter to handle, are metal utensil-safe, and can go up to 500 degrees in the oven. If they ever break, All-Clad will fix them for free.

Again, dishwasher. This alone is just so much better than cast iron.
He classifies it as epic poetry, although I don't recall off hand the details of discussion of Achilles, if there even was any. But the Iliad is most certainly a tragedy in its dramatic elements; indeed you simply would not have Athenian tragic drama if Homer and the Iliad were not central to ancient Greek culture. The "Greek Tragic Vision" is Iliadic, and it extends it reach throughout Greek literature, not just the theatrical genre called tragedy: for example, Thucydides' history cannot be fully understood without reference to the tragic vision.

I have bought two cars new in my life, and held each for ~12 years. The second is on it's 12th year, and still going strong. Also there's really no reason that I won't be able to keep my car another 8 years, making it a 20 year car.

If I buy a 60k electric vehicle today, how long will it be until I replace the batteries? 10 years? 20 years? At what point does the maintenance cycle, render the car worthless?

Even after 12 years, the Saturn SL1 I had still worked as a car. There would still be maintenance cycles (oil, brakes, etc). But if you took that into the cost of ownership, it's still relatively cheaper than buying a new car.

Mandatory NAT64 support in every dual-stack router.

Concretely: if you're a router and you accept IPv6 packets, you must offer NAT64 services on any interface from which you accept IPv4 packets. The upgrade ripples outward from the core routers (default-free zone) in two waves. As soon as all of a router's peers support IPv6, that router can drop NAT64 and IPv4. No flag days. All coordination is between a pair of peers with a direct link.

There were IPng proposals that had this requirement (using different terms, of course). IPv6 wasted more than a decade fighting against NAT64, tooth and nail. It wasn't until they finally caved and standardized NAT64 that people took IPv6 seriously -- but by then it was too late to make it a mandatory feature of dual-stack routers and there was already hardware shipping with IPv6. The clean upgrade path was lost forever.

Next time anybody complains about the IPv6 transition taking so long, you know who to blame.

Genetic and biological factors (from the 2nd paragraph of the Wikipedia page, as you so helpfully pointed out above) play a role in the body's response to trauma.

Everyone has trauma, not everyone has DID from it, and that's where those factors come into play. Just as not everyone has red hair or the genetics for schizophrenia.

In the absence of trauma one can still be schizophrenic due to neurochemistry. DID does not form in the absence of trauma, but we cannot prove that because we cannot purge trauma from life.

> ... directories, if used properly, can protect a 777 file from being changed. The error in the mental model is in how permissions work, not how files are organized.

There is a second possible misconception that I did touch on in my last paragraph, but didn't spell out. On Unix, the permissions check is done when you open the file, not when you perform the read or write. This means that a user who cannot currently open the file (because directory permissions mean they have no way to get to the inode) can nonetheless alter it now if they opened it when they could. So you could rename the file from the attacker's directory into your installer's private directory, verify its cryptographic signature, but then the attacker injects their malware into the file before you start copying, and you install the malware.

Because the two common types of locks on Unix (BSD and POSIX record) are advisory, you can't just lock that file against writers before you check the signature. This is in contrast to Windows, where you can't even rename or delete the file if someone else has it open.
This is definitely a killer feature on Discord for remote working.

You’re missing the broader point of this thread — no one is denying Adobe etc are currently financially successful. They are predicting that, in time, the way they are becoming financially successful will eventually cause a significant decrease in their success.

> Of course, the problem schools face is that objective facts about what's happened between students-- in or out of school-- are frequently not known.

That's right, but the solution is not to empower schools to operate their own investigation departments so that they can enforce their own laws on our children through a governance system best described as a Medieval lordship. There must be limits on their authority.

For children in abusive home environments, schools ought to refer these cases to the State. For children involved in bullying relationships, schools ought to refer these cases to the State. There are more adequate checks and balances on the actions of State than within the unelected fiat systems of governance in public schools. State and local governments can direct the appropriate responses of social workers and law enforcement. There is no rationale for protecting violent bullies from the law by adjudicating their behavior within the nonstandard and arbitrary discipline systems of schools.

Schools are not law enforcement and have powerful incentives to act capriciously to keep production moving: as you shared - they didn't look out for you and they didn't stop your bully.

> Price systems work by simplifying and transmitting information relevant to production and consumption decisions. If the price goes up, consumers who can go without the thing can stop buying it and producers who can make more of the thing can start making it, and they each have the incentive to do so.

This myth has been proven wtong again and again. It assumes that everything is available through a market; if my city doesn't have good cycling infrastructure, where do I put money so it improves ? Where do I find a more efficient justice system and how is its price ?

It assumes that all decisions are taken rationally based on a thorough analysis of the situation. The mere existence (and efficiency) of advertising, and the luxury sector, show that a not insignificant part of decisions are not taken based on self-interest.

It assumes that everyone has enough money to "vote with their wallet". I don't need to tell you how out of touch this assumption is when there is a whole class of people considered poor, aka not able to buy whatever they want/need.

> When it comes to externalities with the environment, these can be incorporated into the price system.

If you take into account how much a system like planet Earth provides and give it a realistic cost you realize it doesn't work. Take the ISS: it's cost around 100 billion dollars and provides the bare minimum for ~10 persons. That means that planet Earth costs at a minimum 10 billion dollars per capita, and that's far from covering it all.

The only thing you can do is have a central system that puts limits on capitalism, by introducing taxes and such. Which exactly means it's not able to handle everything.

> Increasing the temperatures and increases in carbon mean more food and more habitable land. "

More CO2 actually decreases the nutritional content of grown food.

Also, if the climate changes faster than animals can adapt, it can lead to a collapse of a number of food chains that many people depend on.

Finally, I'm not sure why you assume more land would be habitable when some currently habitable zones are on the brink of becoming uninhabitable. You just seem to assume that we'll end up better off because…?

> Nor have I seen evidence it in fact is changing at any alarming rate (and I worked in this space for a while).

Surely you agree that temperatures are changing faster than at any point in history that didn't involve some ecological catastrophe.

> Recall history class, when the North American continent was covered in a sheet of ice. Recall history class, when you learned the largest dessert in the world was a green oasis until the last few thousand years.

So your argument is, "there have been significant natural climate changes that caused ecological upheaval, therefore we shouldn't worry about this climate change that is also sure to cause ecological upheaval "? I honestly have no idea why you would find that reassuring.

Best case projections are still quite disruptive, and worst-case projections are catastrophic. Maybe a little more caution is warranted when the survival of humanity may be at stake, don't you think?

> You want to know how I know the authoritative statement "Second, humans are in fact the primary cause." is unknowable? Because we only have ~100 years of measured data.

You really need to read some more if you think we don't have evidence of the temperature record before that.
That's not necessarily true, though. There are things you can do with a fresh slate, empty planet that aren't feasible on Earth. It also misses the redundancy aspect of colonizing another planet.

Short-term Mars plans aren't "terraform it so you can live outside"; it's stuff we can already likely accomplish in the Sahara or Antarctica if we really felt like it. Oases already exist in the Sahara; humans have permanent inhabitation in the Antarctic.
To be fair, most of the examples (and all of the ugly ones, IMO) are warts in today's C++ standard that are being greatly improved in C++23.

In my workplace we use zoom breakout rooms as an alternative. When we have a meeting we move to the main room and have it there. Otherwise each member is in a breakout room.

Yonatan rightly categorizes Nazism as an ideology centered around race. Unfortunately, he then veers off to finger-pointing modern day political discourse as a means to justify "punching Nazis". My previous comment was aimed at the crowd that thinks " punching Nazis" is a zero-sum game of villain and hero. It has more nuance, and should be understood in a previous historical context.
My friend and I were working on a tool for this when the pandemic started and our jobs went remote. It was a fun exercise and we learned a lot about webrtc and audio/video APIs. But we noticed there was a new startup every other week raising some funds to do the same thing and working much harder than us on the problem. Finally, Slack announced “huddles” and we gave in to the fatigue we had with some peer negotiation issue & dropped the project. Now, 2 years later, none of those tools have blown up. I feel pretty confident that tools aren’t the solution to the missing pop-in; culture is. Teams that want this capability have been figuring it out one way or another just like this example. Even myself: a decade ago I would work one-on-one on something and we’d sit in a Skype call, both muted doing our own things, music playing, but able to poke the other with extremely low friction. It was great. Nowadays with hybrid work and the momentum of in-person culture, I think a lot of people are unable to appreciate remote work as much as possible. IMO the pop-in can be an important part of the remote puzzle.

I'm guessing that recursion isn't used much in whatever work you do, but it's very helpful for things like parsers, compiler passes, etc. Basically anything that has to walk to tree or directed graph, and where you need to build up context based on the traversal path from the starting point to the node you're currently handling.

Obviously in a non-functional language, you can do these things without recursion by using your own stack rather than the runtime function-call stack. But sometimes it's nice to have the stack provided for you. That also plays well with C++ runtime exception propagation.
If they were pressuring/coercing creators into creating only works that avoids a specific depiction, I think it'd be a problem. But this seems only to be a service for the receiving end of media, so I don't see the problem there.

It's no different from using a user CSS or a Greasemonkey script on the client-side to filter what we want to see on the web; it works only for that specific user and doesn't directly affect the server/creator side.
