If by understand yourself you mean pretend to have a diagnosable condition then there is something wrong.

Claiming to have autism with no detectable impairment is like me claiming to be blind because despite having 6/6 vision (i.e. normal) because that's is actually worse than average vision for my age group (6/5 is average healthy young adult vision).
Yeah but for almost all of this kind of service you have some sort of phone, email or 24/7 helpdesk system.

Google however is infamous for not providing support at all on all their services, even if your complete digital identity got killed off because some AI can't recognize that the "CSAM" you sent was in fact communication with your child's doctor [1].

Is the "Most popular" badge on pricing page something actually measured or do people just stick it to whatever option they prefer users to buy?
Cloud computing platforms are a bit of a double edged sword. I find it kind of ironic that big companies are moving their stuff to those services but they often have to rely on some consultancy firm that can deal with these problems. Congratulations, you had a problem and now you have two.
Absolutely not. There are certain questions you can’t ask until after you have an offer because they will otherwise unfairly shade people’s perception of you. This is no different than waiting a few dates before disclosing medical issues and such to a potential mate. Convince people of your value first, then hit them with the conditions.

This isn’t a flaw to be fixed. It’s just how human interactions work. It has always been this way and always will be, no matter what you try to do about it.
This. I constantly struggle with connectivity. It's ridiculous how amateur the connectivity area is. I'm sure things will.be different if they get better at it.

>Anyone working 4 day week here, as an employee?
I do, working at Atom bank in the UK. We switched to a a 4 day week 4 8.5 hours at the end of Covid. It works great - I am also working from home. It is noticiably more focused during the 4 days. Eg not doing meetings unless you need to.

I was lucky and I started on a 37.5 5 7.5 hours a day in the office.
These "issues" only exist because of the scale and reach of Corporations. You can not fix "too big to fail" issues unless you stop letting these institutions to grow too big in the first place.

I'm yet to hear a single convincing argument of why we need to have organizations of such a large scale nowadays. Could you make a case of what we would be missing if we just "threw the whole thing out"?
Nice writeup.

I've read the CRDT paper but never implemented it. Question - if you're not using LWW (instead you have concurrent values of a vector clock), this is where you have your CRDT and merge the states coming from every node?
> When I asked to make 4-day week a thing, at least for me, the request was rejected. The reasoning had to do with "synergy" in a team and lack of much overlap in a remote team. Example I was given: if everyone started taking 4-day weeks it might be that Bob has Mondays off, Kate is off on Wednesday, and I would be out on Friday. Fair enough.

Alternative framing: encourages good communication and high bus factor.

I think it’s a little different in the analog camera world: it’s common to buy lenses or bodies with “fewer” features, since there are mechanical and image quality tradeoffs to stuffing everything into a single component.

For example, it’s common to buy a “prime” lens, i.e. one that doesn’t zoom. But you wouldn’t describe that as taking away choice; it’s an intentional choice to prioritize size and other parameters (sharper images due to fewer elements, faster apertures).
What happens if no one complains, nothing changes as a result, and everyone just quits instead? You get the current situation, which has not even developed fully. Most of what you take for granted is because someone at one point in time complained about how things were and tried to change them. If you are good enough, force change, just quitting it is an acceptance that you lose your battle and you go on to select another, easier battle, in the hopes you won't lose that too. Nothing wrong with quitting, but I do find it wrong to smear those who complain about wrong things.
At the risk of being a nitpick, this is not a tracker.

A tracker has one axis for time (usually down) and another for channels. Each cell is a note, the pitch of which is written as text (eg “C-5”). This lets you see and edit multiple channels quickly in the same view. That’s the distinguishing quality of trackers.

This Excel DAW appears to have a separate sheet per channel: each sheet has one axis for time and another for note pitch. In other words, it’s a piano roll. These are common in most regular DAWs but not in trackers.

In other words, the only thing this has in common with trackers is superficial, ie the grid/table look.

That way you'd only be pulled into the conversation once there's actionable information.
Sidebery and Tree Style Tabs make sense when used on a display with decent screen real estate when the viewport width is significantly higher than viewport height. I usually have more than 250 tabs open at a time which would be impossible to navigate without these vertical tree tab extensions.
React is basically a "State within a state" of front-end - it's so focused on single-purpose libraries that just about everything has its special, React-only equivalent. So much so, that there are people who just assume that React = front-end, even though that's very much not the case.

Draft.js is a popular example of what I'm talking about - other libraries would just wrap around a WYSIWYG solution and call it a day. Also note how this PDF component is not advertised as a wrapper, but is one in reality.
> The law can only come if people sue

That's not true in the long run. Legislators can make arbitrary laws that ban or prescribe arbitrary things.

See eg how there are special laws in Spain and Australia that (try to) force specific behaviour from Google News. Behaviour that you can't override with a contract.

Or we just stop pretending that nuclear is bad and build the plants to keep an industrial base going past 2050.

Hell at this point whoever does will just conquer whoever doesn't. Just like the industrial revolution let whoever burn coal take over the rest. I'm hoping to be in a country that isn't conquered, but the west seems to have entered a death spiral of self delusion.

Yes-ish. That part was improvised, and Justin Roiland is from California so is unlikely to have seen the actual commercials. They were widely parodied and imitated though, so the segment likely was inspired be Crazy Eddie.
I see, however, that you're rudely just communicating here without telling people hello first, and waiting for a reply to know they're available to converse.
Ah, so I also don't think I have seen this in practice, but I suppose it's possible that it originated from pre-decimal-system currencies, like the old British money system, where perhaps it was more important to use separate units for clarity.

I suppose it's also possible it needs to sometimes be used (although, again, I have never seen this) in certain cases in more 'formal' situations - accounting, contracts and so on. I guess the format, with the symbols wrapping the numbers so as to make them easier to parse, does make sense.
Thank you for this collection of references.

The business continuity risk of using google is just too dangerous, while the odds are low, the consequences are disastrous for a business and there is never any recourse.
They also had formal education in ancient Egypt at the time. The math problems given to students at the time aren't trivial either. They need to do stuff like calculate the volume of various 3d shapes. Seems they used 256/81 (3.16) as an approximation of pi at the time.

I think people are sometimes forced into one position or another by brain chemistry.

If you have ADHD, and can't hold a thought long enough that when it is your turn to talk comes around, then you are forced into a position of interrupting, or, that thought is lost.

Depending on how important or useful it is, you can be put in a lose/lose position.

So, how I interact with people, depends a lot on what they have going on mentally wise.

That took a long time to learn.
How to generate junk data that doesn't look like junk? Gpt3 maybe
Yeah, even though I use TST on Firefox, the native vertical tab feature on Edge feels snappier and lighter to use probably because it's a native feature. Even if it lacks tree style tabs, Edge did a nice job with its vertical tabs and tab groups.
I actually managed to get my account suspended one day due to nonpayment. It was just a personal toy project and it was completely my fault: I was automatically filtering the mails into a folder that I didn't read until it was too late.

If you look at the sheer amount of emails they sent me before suspending the account, Digital Ocean did everything right: https://i.imgur.com/ah13bEA.png

They gave lots of warnings and also sent an email with the date the account was going to be closed a week in advance.
Hm, it must be a different one to the one I saw years ago. That had the recommendation that if a door lock is difficult, think about going through the wall next to the door.

Exactly. This is truly negativity bias.

Look at all the banks shifting their infra to the cloud. Haven't heard anything bad happen from that. And their uptime and business requirements are as stringent as anyone else, even further scrutinized by regulators and auditors.
It's supposed to replace the tab bar. Unfortunately there's no API to do that and you have to rely on a custom userChrome.css.

Re loss of screen space: yes. However the reasoning is that losing some horizontal space is not as bad as loosing vertical space.
Rather than blocking an ad domain, you can make it return an empty, but valid function using a redirect to noop.js. For example:

It is the equivalent to the very important advice for engineers: "Switch it off and on again!"
The license seems a bit ambiguous. $49 for a "one user license", I hope that really means "one developer"?

But one developer can build an app used by many users. So I suppose you are oddly pressured into buying the more expensive license because you probably have more than one "user"?

Generally, I feel uncomfortable investing in source-available tools. That said, if I needed a PDF viewer in a React app in a pinch, I'd probably reach for this and pay for the full license.

More details on the license found here: https://react-pdf-viewer.dev/license/

This is the part that would freak out most lawyers: "You may combine the Item with other works and make a derivative work from it. The resulting works are subject to the terms of this license."

What's the point in porting uBlock to MV3 if it means neutering it? You already have numerous other ad blockers which don't go all the way and have stuff like "acceptable" ads.

Well, the GDPR isn't there to fine companies for doing the wrong thing. A company's first violation rarely results in fines or disciplinary action. In any case, I do agree that the EU seems to move quicker and act stricter than other regions in regulating big tech companies.
presumably, declaring it this way means you don't ever distribute pdfjs but expect it to be available in the runtime.

Not sure if this was the goal.
Still not everything, and way harder to use.
That's an interesting approximation. The error is about 15 times larger than for the well-known 22/7 approximation.
The NY MTA does an admirable job, the issue I take is pretending that they're perfect. New York is pretty well connected, sure, and I can't think of another city that runs a subway 24x7. Even Tokyo shifts to buses eventually.

Trains go every 10-15 mins even some time past midnight. They go every 30 minutes at time like 3 am; so do some buses.

Right, but OP was going on about rail service (with some key facts wrong). Buses stuck because they get in traffic… well all Muni Metro routes operate in traffic for most of their length (and one operates entirely in mixed traffic).

Muni schedules Owl (1–5 AM) bus service every 30 minutes. They run some regular bus routes 24x7 (not-Owl), Owl buses along the light rail routes, as well as a couple mega Owl routes to make up for the local routes that don't run late night. Except for Treasure/Yerba Buena Island (and the uninhabited islands), you can get within about 1/4–1/2 mile of anywhere in San Francisco on Muni. Evening rail service is like every 20–30 minutes on each line which equates to 10–15 (or better) underground since five of the lines run along the same subway tracks.

Compared to some other large cities around the world where I've been, NYC is pretty well connected, and Manhattan (all of it) is superbly connected.

Yeah, New York City is generally well connected if you take into account the bus service. But so is San Francisco. I'd argue that the outer lands are better connected than the outer boroughs, but SF is so much smaller geographically that's not a fair comparo.

And yea I've done the subway bus shuffle in Queens (both because of subway maintenance and because of the distance to the subway) in the middle of winter. It's doable but OP was going on about not needing buses in NY. I've also done the late night subway thing and caught an earful from some natives who were real unhappy about all the transferring they had to do.

It's not that NY transit is bad or that San Francisco transit is particularly good. The idea that public transit in San Francisco is uniquely bad and grimy is just frustratingly wrong. That said, BART really shit the bed today when someone walked into the transbay tube. The mind boggles.

It's baffling to me that Firefox doesn't have PWA support.
You have the wheel separate to the motor, so you just replace the wheel? Just like you don't currently have to remove the brakes when you change a wheel.
> Europe is, in the end, too afraid to do it

Hmm, I feel this is opposite of what people normally complain about here. Every time EU does something about big tech, HN users will pop up saying it's just because they're jealous and wants to harass US companies. And other's saying the US are just afraid of hurting their own companies and look the other way so they can grow big.
To be fair, modern web design often maxes out at 1920p of screen width, often even narrower. You just lose whitespace.

I propose another option: unless you can show clear written instructions, the ceo and the board are personally criminally responsible for the acts of their agents, contractors, and employees at the course of their duty.

If your branch manager incorrectly adds your teller to an industry wide list of do not hire, the board and CEO are personally criminally responsible for it. No hiding behind the corporate veil. I don’t know how to prove whether someone acted in their own and not on the instructions of the employer though. What I’m afraid of is equifax will simply create many companies and divvy up it into equifax backend web services llc that has fewer than 150 employees.

Yes, if you'd compare all horror stories of people having huge downtimes because their on-prem system collapsed vs. people having an issue with their cloud provider then we'd very quickly realise again why the cloud has taken us by storm.
I know I'm going to come off as a Google apologist, however, I'm leaning towards there being more to the story than what you are saying.

The previous month's billing didn't 'went through' and you are unable to zero in on whether this is a Google issue or a you issue.

I get that it is easier to complain on the internet and often cathartic do so as a coping mechanism.

Having an account suspended because of a billing issue is not exclusive to Google.

Have you moved your projects off GCP now as voting with your wallet would be the sensible thing to do. Until you encounter a billing issue with AWS and move again to Azure and then to DO.
Member of my team moved recently to 4x9.375 instead of 5x7.5. My company wouldn't allow an hours reduction at the same or similar salary, so he took the offered option above. He takes Wednesday off and seems to enjoy it. I'm considering the same now, too.
DevDependencies are not installed when you use —production flag at npm install (saving space and time here when you include this package) they are only used for releasing the package versions in this case I assume.
Fullfact.org is excluded from uBlacklist blocks, does GOOG format it differntly?
I notice that results from fullfact.org don't have the "Block this site" link next to them.

Doing a site search on fullfact.org org, eg "does ivermectin cure covid site:fullfact.org" returns with a page where with every result lacking the "Block this site" link next to it.

Searching the uBlacklist code base for "fullfact.org" returns nothing.

It seems that Google formats any results from fullfact.org in a manner that prevents uBlacklist from detecting it to block it.

Even adding it manually to the blocked sites list prevents doesn't enable it to be blocked.

What is going on here?
I am quite happy with the pdf.js default viewer, which does not have react dependencies and does not need to download a meg or two to work. It does not require me to allow all kinds of scripts from the website or even third party scripts from random CDNs. It also does not need a purchase of a license. It has so far always been snappy for me.

So unless the feature set of this is so unimaginably great, that it completely revolutionizes PDF viewing, I doubt, that I will ever have a use for it. Maybe a PDF reading focused website could offer it as an alternative viewer, while obviously still preserving the option to view in the standard PDF viewer. Maybe that would make sense then for people, who need it fancier.
The 2cv did this as well. I'm undecided if this supports your argument though.
Now I have to object here.

AWS Console being completely stateful with its accounts and roles is only usable in Firefox with Containers.

And as for Google Maps I don't see any difference between Chrome and Firefox.

I use Confluence for work, and so have to use Chrome. It's slow and terrible everywhere.
That doesn't stop people telling me to 'Google' things, something I haven't done for about ten years.
If you can show people that yes this intervention will help the poorest but it will help you more then those concerned mostly with their own relative status might be more likely to back it.

Folks have been trying this. When the poorest folks have enough money to spend on things, everyone tends to benefit - it isn't a new theory. But mostly, teaching folks this has failed. It is either that, or you need to settle on "people simply dislike giving others help, even if they reap rewards."

I think part of the issue is that the rewards aren't nearly as visible or shockingly impactful as actually being given money to thrive.
Radar is working hard to get towards higher resolution and classification quality. From what I know, it is the closest competitor because it is active sensing and complements camera properties even better than LIDAR. In adverse conditions LIDAR and Cameras have similar failure modes, which is not good.

I do agree that cameras an ML on the images seems to be stuck at the next plateau of scene understanding performance. An impressive one, admitted, but still not sufficient. For real emergency reactions with highway speeds you need to assess situations about a quarter mile away basically.
