DCTs are still best for that sweet-sweet 0-60 time. The max stall RPMs on a stock torque converted transmission is probably 2300rpms at the most, while Porsche PDK can launch at redline and modulate torque delivery precisely.

I don't know of a car with a torque converted that can hit sixty in under 3.0 seconds, but the Corvette and 911 can both do so with RWD due to the bonkers launches these cars manage.

Cannot stand the term either, so many problems with it. For one it completely lacks any kind of precision... and the idea of 'consuming content' is just gross and stupid.
I agree with you, but crashing a 50-year old car also isn't the same as crashing a new car. Rust, failed fasteners, etc has to bias that crash to make it even worse for the old car.
Have been using MFP on and off for many years. Was fine with the tradeoff of getting crappy ads in return for using it for free. The app has not improved at all in years. I’ve tried paid a couple of times and found no additional value.

Recently though they introduced an extremely dark pattern of overlaying the “back” navigation with a link to load a full page ad (on iOS, unsure about Android). So, now they lose out on whatever cents they were getting for the crappy ads as I shift use elsewhere. Surprised it passes muster with their ad exchange.
> They don't. Compare local purchasing power of any big European city with any American city. 9 out of 10 times, people in American cities would have higher purchasing power.

Doubt, especially once you factor things like paid vacations, paid parental leave, healthcare, etc.

The big difference is when you are an healthy young techbro, after that it equalize quite rapidly on average. Of course there are outliers but for the average software developer I'd say you're much better of in a European capital than in Alabama

Lifestyles are also completely different and can't be priced in
I've tried it for a small project. It's about as easy to use as Heroku.
Haven’t tried them out yet, but railway.app looks promising. Same for fly.io
I have tried it and found it to be really really good. It's a little more DIY than Heroku, but not by too much. They are moving really fast too, hiring people to focus on specific use cases (Laravel, Rails, etc.)

If you're making heavy use of Heroku addons, you'll probably miss that quite a bit.
I love dense urban areas, but I'm not sure I buy the human connection angle. I've never felt so alone when living in cities. Something about constantly being surrounded by people makes you less likely to want to get to know them.

Now that I live a bit more rural, I've found myself much more likely to get to know people. It helps that things aren't always busy or packed, and I can linger a bit more and have more pleasant conversations.

YMMV.
This is mostly nonsense, you can easily check for yourself.

Load up the OP's page with Chrome dev tools network tab open.

Connection start: 90ms (60ms of which is SSL handshake)
Request/Response: 30ms request / 30ms response

So the whole post is about yak shaving not splitting the 30ms response portion of a request that already takes 5x that (150+ms).

Sure it's a bit faster, but your users will not notice the difference between a 14kb page and a 15kb page over https (which you hopefully have on).

> Or for a real-life equivalent: if I were to stand outside of the home of a person and blaring into a megaphone that she deserve to die... I'd at least get the cops called on me for a noise violation or a harassment charge, and if I were to incite others or coordinate their behavior, I would get a conspiracy charge. Why should Internet trolls enjoy legal protection for the same behavior?

They shouldn't, but why would a coffee-shop down the street be held responsible for not serving them? This is the equivalent of what some people are asking of Cloudflare.

I fully support people suing, or demanding the police or whoever is responsible investigate, KF. By most accounts, they are a horrible organization that are attacking and causing harm in the world. But we call the police when someone harasses us, we don't ask strangers to stop doing business with our harasser.

I thought about it before I made my previous comment, Good to know this is a thing.

> permissive licenses "don't work as well" because there is less incentive for anyone to pay you for the other license; typically all they'd be avoiding is the attribution requirements.

As far consumers are concerned, I think it largely depends upon the project; If it's complex to setup and run then I guess people would use the hosted version. I use open-source Aseprite because it's available on AUR, But I did pay for the license on their website which I presume most wouldn't.

Perhaps the real concern with permissible license are the competitors, Who get to use your code to reduce their barrier for entry. Then again, Software code at current times aren't that big of a barrier to entry.

One thing which all these discussions prove to me is that open-source application funding is very complex, Depending upon it for livelihood with just good will of the consumers is very risky as consumers are on average poor and corporations are on average greedy.

There's a huge difference between "if I use an iPhone, the US government can potentially find out where I am etc" and "if I use an Android phone, Google is actively mining every bit of data they can about me and everyone around me in order to monetize it to the greatest possible degree; if I use Facebook, they're doing the same; Amazon is manufacturing cameras that not only spy on you for Amazon themselves, but also hand over the camera data to the police without your consent"....

Do I really need to go on?

The kind of person whose threat model includes worrying about being targeted by governments is not the average person. Everyone is being targeted by ad behemoths like Google and Facebook, all the time, in every way they can possibly manage.

I'm not sure that Caddy is a good choice for production, but for my hobby work it is just so much easier to use.

It's been documented by very angry, frustrated people who feel personally attacked. I don't trust people with all of their own skin in the game to tell the truth. I expect them to say whatever they have to. People have been going after Kiwi Farms for at least 8 years now, relentlessly. Why can't any of these mobs turn all of this documentation into a court order? Kiwi Farms has been sued repeatedly, close to ten times I think. They're being sued right now. Every case but one has been thrown out immediately. That other one took 3 days to also be thrown out.
I'm sorry but I don't see how your links support the case than these groups were considered non-White. They faced prejudice, sure. But the idea that they were considered non-White is historical revisionism: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/201...
Sure. And the AI serves the expected stereotype.

Isn't that great? The world will become a better place with AI everywhere.

We need especially more AI in law enforcement, and such…

AI should make important decisions. Because it bears the same prejudices as humans. So it can replace humans just great. ;-)
No I use JSoup for my search engine.

You can calculate anchor tag density across the DOM tree and prune branches that exceed a certain threshold to remove navigational elements with reasonable accuracy if that is a problem.

It's not going to be perfect, but even Google messes this up every once in a while. I wouldn't consider it a major hurdle.
For Europe especially Switzerland I find YAZIO[1] very good although many features are only available in the premium version. Almost every product I scan is already present in the app which was not the case withe MFP.

I interpreted split finances as each person pays "their half". If your spouse who presumably makes more than you (not you specifically) pays a lot more and backstops purchases, having your own bank accounts is more of a habit than a practical necessity right? We used to have our own bank accounts too, but then I or my wife would transfer money to one another and we eventually just asked "what's the point of that?" if no matter what happens we're sharing our expenses... Obviously that's what works for us and doesn't apply to everyone, but just wanted to shed some context on what I thought split finances meant.

Cool. No one is forcing you to live in those places.
Yeah it's been working perfectly for me ever since I set it up last fall (maybe it was winter, can't remember). At least half a year. I'd say it's worth the effort, but the process still sucks.

One of the things I remember making it real difficult was that the UI of Samsung's dev tools app assumes you have the default light theme in GTK (or whatever widget toolkit they're using), and since I had a different dark theme, I couldn't see any of the icons.

So then I switched to one of my devices that were running Ubuntu 20.04 with Gnome, where the app would not launch due to something about "pixbuf". Side note - I'd had that particular error so many times in Ubuntu with various apps that it's the sole reason I eventually learned Arch (and tiling window managers), and haven't looked back since.

I finally managed to get it to launch and work correctly on Xubuntu running on my girlfriend's very, very old laptop that takes about 8 minutes to boot to full speed. So save yourself the headache, and run the Samsung dev tools app on an unmolested Linux installation, with no special theming, that is not vanilla Ubuntu.

That actually sounds like the solution. If you're getting something standard, you don't want it. If something is too non-standard to be identified, pass it through.
They are. Via the same mechanisms - taxes paid to the county, who maintains that property. Plus, suburbanites bring a lot of money into the cities, even though they don't live there.

Cities could incorporate suburbs into their boundaries, yet cities don't want to do that, because despite griping about their lack of paying city taxes, they don't want to pay to maintain/manage those spaces.

I really believe the "suburbs cost cities money" statement is overplayed. Between county taxes (which feed back into the cities in those counties) and HOA (for neighborhood maintenance), they are paying for themselves.

In the layperson's sphere, even to the technical professional, the counting of bits is incredibly rare. The fact that the telecoms industry has crafted this case-based confusion is (naively) foolish or (cynically) immoral.

If you're not willing to presume that articles by the layperson are likely to be referring to bytes unless otherwise clarified, unfortunately that unwillingness is where the problem lies - not with the people using the language as shared with the 99.9% of the rest of the world.

That said, you do have our sympathies for your confusion. There are lots of words that our industry have introduced to the world and immediately lost the nuance of, and it will only continue.

Please, continue to bang the drum with your colleagues. Telecoms professionals should be completely precise where that precision matters. Here it does not - and the drum is just distracting noise.
This misses the most horrifying potential outcome to me. Their ability to manipulate real behavior.

And I'd argue the number of people who actually do have a "need" are stretching the definition of "need" to it's breaking point. Yes, if you need near-zero latency then AirPods might not be for you but that's a tiny segment of the population.

It isn't as simple as building things closer and removing the lawn. The author completely forgot about rain, snow, and ice. Very few Americans will put up with freezing weather, perhaps marching through miles of it, putting in 9 hours at the factory, and marching back home again.
Haha, I might be unreasonably amused by your rephrasing of the question.

The adapters (cheap, tiny copper cables) seem as sturdy or sturdier than many of the cables attached to headphones and ear buds (also cheap, tiny copper cables).

So maybe the question should have been "do they fail more frequently than the cables would themselves?"
Spain is intertwined with Latin America and the distinction between being Spanish vs. being from Latin America is blurred in the general culture of the U.S. we don’t confuse German with Latinos. Cruz from Germany with a German accent would be considered white. From Spain with Spanish accent he may or may not be considered white. I’m the 1970s, with a Spanish accent, he’d be considered “Spanish”. Today he likely would not due to his skin color. These perceptions change over time and don’t always have to do with ethnic/geographic reality.

Whiteness and blackness have more to do with social status and class. Hence, in the South, you get people saying of certain types of blacks, “that’s a good one”. In Russia “blacks” would be Chechens and Dagestanis.

I agree with your 3rd, 4th, and 5th sentences, but not with your 1st and 2nd. Assuming a large number of independent validators, the Nash equilibrium is close to "there is no equivocation, hence no slashable evidence, hence no incentive to run a slasher node". (Remember that Nash equilibrium implicitly assumes that agents are not allowed to cooperate with each other). Suppose some fraction of the validators are deviating from this equilibrium by doing lots of equivocation, now there is an incentive to run a slasher node. So what this modelling suggests is that in the real world, we can have a small number of slashers and a large number of validators, and the security comes from the fact that anyone could be a slasher (it's OK that the number of people who actually are is small). But we cannot conclude that "it's OK to have a small number of validators, as long as anyone can be a validator".
If people have never seen you, they make a mental image of you based solely of your voice. If you are working the phones there are certain things you can do to make their mental image of you very positive and in this familiar and authoritative tone gets you high scores and in return positive responses.

If your target audience is a median American, having an American accent will help you, if that is the only parameter that you can improve on.

I'm using lemon to parse a programming language.

Lemon produces this report for my grammar:

Parser statistics:
terminal symbols................... 19
non-terminal symbols............... 42
total symbols...................... 61
rules.............................. 75
states............................. 56
conflicts.......................... 0
action table entries............... 377
lookahead table entries............ 379
total table size (bytes)........... 1433

It generates a parser that seems to be a reasonable size:

2200 10090 78282 src/parser.c

I've tried a few other parser generators, lemon was my favourite.

TypeScript has completely different goals. It will always just be a semantic checker on top of JS and nothing more. This has been mentioned more than once:

From the wikipedia article cited above...

In 1989 American researcher Bernd Würsig published an article about him having been attacked by a killer whale on a beach of Valdes Peninsula. A single individual, possibly as big as 9 metres (30 ft), beached towards him while he was watching sea lions about 200 metres (650 ft) from him in hope to take a photograph of a killer whale hunt. Dr Würsig ran up the beach after the animal missed him by about 1 metre. He speculated that the whale might have mistaken him for a pinniped.[19]
>They deliberately chose a phrase that had no recorded previous use in neither trade press or academia, for a specific purpose.

Here's Caldera using the term "open source" for a specific purpose, to describe their DOS offerings as "source available" in 1996[1], which does not fit the definition of "Open Source". Two years later, according to OSI, Bruce Perens proposed "Open Source" as a replacement term for "Free Software"[2]. The Caldera example is just an easy to find public, widely read announcement which uses the term open source in a common-English sort of way. There are more, especially if you troll around old comp.* newsgroups.

> If you have objections to the term, why did you not put them forward in 1998?

I suppose because I was 12 and just learning C at the time. Though I do recall liking the "Free Software" term better, coupled with the phrase "Free as in freedom, not free as in beer".

Just for a heads up, even if you hate what Meta's about, its privacy policy, or facebook, or the lack of customer support, or whatever, signal-amplifying this type of thing is probably just gonna at best get some engineer in trouble with his manager for making something public without a thorough-enough PR review or something.
No one is swimming across this river so clearly we don't need a bridge.

Your assertion certainly explains why the most walkable places in the country also have the highest housing costs, no one wants to live there!
It seems a bit of a stretch to suggest that the public at large "wanted" to adjust zoning laws to end up with a car-centric environment. Automakers created the concept of jaywalking [1]. Judges defended the rights of the public to enjoy the streets without cars [2]. Firestone Tire, Standard Oil of California, Phillips Petroleum, GM, and Mack Trucks were convicted of conspiring to monopolize the sale of buses and related products to local transit companies [3]. We live in a manufactured environment, and its manufacture was the result of a decades-long marketing and lobbying effort by industry interest groups, not some grassroots democratic movement.

That said, people generally resist any kind of change. That's _why_ it took nearly 50 years of lobbying and an unelected tyrant like Robert Moses to, for instance, really shift New York City's infrastructure in favor of cars. The question is how to make it clear to individuals why a life stuck in traffic isn't in their best interest anymore and hold the government accountable for making improvements.

I'm going to a staff lunch today!

But we're a small company, can fit around a big table at the local steak house. Back when I worked in a large building on 1st St in San Jose it was different. They'd cater a lunch in a conference room, we'd eat the free sandwiches and talk, then we'd go out to lunch again somewhere good.
Not necessarily. Lots more people would want to live in cities, but it's cities that are keeping people out.

You wouldn't want to build a 10 story apartment building out on the edge of town away from transit - but it's patently bizarre that cities like Seattle and San Francisco have single family zoning within walking distance of their downtown core.
