I purchased my Jeep Wrangler in 2018. I found the color I wanted Online. Pre-qualified with my bank. Contacted the internet sales address, told them I wanted the car and I'd be by at 6 to pick it up and they had it ready.

My best car buying experience has been Tesla though. Ordered on the app. Put 500 down. Got a build date. Got a notification when it was in delivery. Added my payment info. Got a time to pickup car. Drove home.
School that has to obey idiotic laws. After couple grades depending on school and teacher will look the other way but grade 1-2 no.

I like teachers in our school I think most know how stupid this is, but do they want to lose their job and career over it..?

Of course there are also idiotic parents but they are minority.

Like the ones that don’t allow their kids to use matches when they are 9.. or use sharp knife at same age poor kid had his eye pop out when he saw my younger daughter(6) cut a steak with a knife. Blows my mind.
I guess "portable" can mean many things. A laptop is nice to have while traveling, in the car, on the train, or when I just want to sit on the couch or on the terrace while working on hobby stuff.

And a NUC is great when I visit my parents for two weeks but want to keep working remotely. That way I don't have to disassemble my gaming setup (thinking of cable management), or worry that something happens to the PC. It's still a great remote working experience, and cheaper than a capable laptop.

I see the appeal in both. But to be honest, I'm not in need for a high end machine for my work, nor hobbies, so I just use a work laptop for work, and spin up gitpod for my own stuff, which a chromebook could run.

> So, what do you think is truer? Is the market excruciatingly tight, or are there just a lot of people making bad purchases out there?

At least for the Prius Prime someone wrote a script to grab the data which you can peruse[1].

E.g., for 6/30/22 there were 113 LEs, 99 XLEs, and 18 Limiteds that weren't listed as presold on that spreadsheet.

I spot checked both by enumerating through Toyota's list of dealerships and emailing roughly 50 dealerships. Based on the response I'd say even in July only 10% of those numbers were actually available. And cut that in half once I let them know I was inquiring out of state.

Average markup over MSRP was probably 5k. (Outlier was 20k "market adjustment" :)

So regardless of whether people are making bad purchases, the market is exceedingly tight.

I was in NOLA. Might have just been the age of places I lived, but walls and roof were substantially thinner than I'm accustomed to and bottom floor had open-air crawl spaces underneath (necessitating dripping faucets so pipes don't freeze).
In the political Twitter neighborhoods that I inhabit, there have been many cases over the years of people having their accounts yanked, with the only message being "You have been banned for violating the Twitter rules. This decision is final and cannot be appealed."

When these bannings get publicized, however, the bad publicity often leads to the "permanent ban" being reversed, with Twitter simply explaining that the original ban "was a mistake". How does this sort of thing happen so often, unless random employees have access to powerful tools that they are not authorized or trained to use?
I feel like car buying can always be relatively low stress if you're willing to just pay the sticker price. It's the haggling that sucks. But that means paying more for the car than you really need to.

Some dealerships offer no-haggle pricing around here. Their sticker price is typically slightly lower than comparable cars in other dealerships, but people spend on average more for every car purchased at them, I think it amounted to around a thousand dollars or so. But that study was also from over a decade ago.
Dealerships make it unbelievably painful as a matter of course. I bought my most recent car coming off lease. Even though I arranged all this online and arrived with a certified check, it still took me 3 hours to get the paperwork done when I showed up there - talk about captured. It was ridiculous.

Portugal eases visa rules to tackle labour shortage

https://www.swissinfo.ch/eng/portugal-eases-visa-rules-to-ta...

> "Portugal's unemployment rate is at 5.7%, near a record low.

Employers' confederations have been asking for the immigration rules to be streamlined, pointing to an economic situation close to full employment"

The narrative of unemployment in Portugal driving dissatisfaction across the population is very tenuous in light of these latest developments and policies
If it was not caused by fiat money, I'd expect to see corresponding periods of deflation. Inflation is a sustained increase in the general price level. It is not a temporary spike from the fluctuations in supply&demand of goods and services.

Another way to understand it is to consider, what happens if the price of gas rises? Does that automatically put more money in your pocket to pay for it? Nope. You just have less money to spend on other things. But inflation (with a lag period) does put more money in your pocket.

> Could you share some countries with alternative money systems that aren't impacted?

Modern countries have all gone fiat. But we can look at the US from 1800-1914, which was not fiat money. There was zero net inflation in that period, while we've had endemic inflation ever since (aside from a brief period of deflation during the Depression).

> I'm not sure you deserve engaging

What I wrote is not the general opinion, though it is the opinion of economists. At least you were willing to talk about it, which is nice.
The irony is that I had to help a client with a security audit because they wanted to provide Twitter with services that related to employee data. Judging from this article, Twitter would not have passed their own external service provider security audit.
The old locations still exist, but many are priced out of reach, and the lack of kids leads to the school closing.
Possibly, but I think higher security standards may not create the kinds of lag you're looking for there. Adam Neumann and Travis Kalanik are not going to give two shits about IT standards, and even if they did I doubt it would slow down their innovation in business models, ways of dealing with customers, and dealings with government.

The problem with that “AI wins an art competition” story
I was 6 y/o (in the 80s) when I got my first bicycle, after which I got to explore my part of the world as I see fit, unsupervised. Just be back in time for diner.

My parents had no idea where I was, whom I was with and what I was doing. I learned how to use my body and its limits. I learned to make friends as well as enemies. We played creatively with whatever environment we encountered in ways positive and negative (setting small things on fire and such). Play. Experiment. Screw up. Learn.

All of this in an environment far less safe than today, in a pretty dysfunctional neighborhood.

One day I came home crying, as a much larger kid hit me in the face. I found little emotional support as my dad said to just hit him back. As I explained that the kid was much older and larger..."well, get a piece of wood then".

Crude. Today's parents may even find it neglectful or abusive. But it wasn't. It's one of several experiences that have shaped me for the better.

As I did get that piece of wood and walked towards my attacker, he could see me coming. I was scared as hell, this wood would do very little in the hands of a significantly weaker kid. Yet he made a run for it, and as word got around, nobody ever messed with me again. Because I was strong? No. Because I came back.

I solved a seemingly impossible problem all by myself. It's made me a problem solver for life. I learned that negative experiences are inevitably part of life, and thus ordinary. This affords me to take a hit (physically, financially, otherwise) without getting into a state of existential panic. Nor would I waste much time complaining about it. I just calmly accept it and solve it.

Another example were the few years where we were really poor. The family was under regular threat of repossession. Sometimes my dad told me to hide my toys. Half of those toys were fake. My dad's attempts to mimic A-brand toys by replicating them with cardboard and tape.

Traumatic? No. I simply learned to detach myself from objects. As they're just that: objects. I still got fed, had clothes, and with an outdoor play lifestyle, I needed little else to be happy. I carry this with me to this day: I appreciate luxuries, but don't depend on them emotionally.

The point of all this is that this unshielded, unmanaged childhood is life itself. By experiencing its highs and lows, you develop skills and character, useful for your entire life. Plus it's just a whole lot more fun compared to a golden prison.

"A ship is most safe in the harbor, but that's not what ships are for".

Oh, also...stop grinding kids by overloading them with tasks and rules. Fuck "responsibility". They're kids. They can grind for 50 years once they're adults, now is the time for irresponsibility :)
i strongly dislike planetscale and even i think this is not a useful or fair comparison .. sqlite works with local files, much simpler, no network latency, no HA
They're alive and well: https://www.behringer.com/product.html?modelCode=P0BK1

This is the unit I have and I'm quite happy with it. It's on the "low end" of "good". It has a surprisingly low noise floor. Lacks sophisticated routing and switching. Latency is really well at 192khz, good enough for live mixing, as low as you have the CPU mmmph to handle it.

They only take off in price from here, up to thousands of $.

What do you mean by "passes"? Unless it's a file on a removable medium or a remote fs, it has to be created, which requires opening it. Scanning removable media upon insertion and remote fses upon mounting is going to look mighty suspicious and, in the latter case, be cover for data exfiltration.

Frontend frameworks often have better developer experience. I want to use one because it’s less annoying to do thing like template HTML with editor completions, than using HTML.

Another theoretical advantage is that you can get better colocation of content, style and functionality.

Basic JS is pretty annoying to write. It reminds me of using goto for control flow. It’s a lot cleaner to be able to put functionality alongside the document structure.

Of course, you can use HTML + CSS + JS but you can also use Assembly for all code. But the end solution here is not Frontend frameworks.

I think it’s time browsers give us a better abstraction to HTML + CSS + JS. Webassembly and friends are nice, but I think the 3 fundamentally need to be replaced together in a performant way such that the simple case of no client side code is well optimised. Frontend frameworks are just a symptom of the problem which is that Web devs have to use the only abstraction creation mechanism available to get nicer development properties.

I propose we ignore the current names and just go with "USB-C 40G 100W" or "USB-A 5G 10W" or whatever.

Yes, for sure, please don't be that guy!

I figured I'd add a bit of guidance in addition to "go with the intention of expanding your social circle" since I'm writing another message, for anyone that is interested:

* Start going to swing dance classes (I recommend Lindy Hop for beginners)

* In classes, say hello to all the people you dance with as you rotate, ask how they are doing, and start gradually making small talk focused around whatever moves you're learning that day (though not to the point of distracting from the class!)

* Chances are some people coming to the class will be in couples. If there is one partner of the couple who you small talk a bit more freely with, at the beginning or the end of the classes, go and say hi and make some small talk with those couples, get to know their partners too

* As a single person going to classes it's generally a lot more relaxed talking to couples than other single people to start with

* Slowly start including others (couples or single people) in these pre/post class conversations

* At this point everyone is probably still terrified at the idea of going to a social dance, thinking they aren't "good enough" yet

* Make a group chat with the people you've been talking to before and after classes with the goal of coordinating a social dance that everyone can go to together so they don't feel so terrified of going alone

* Add more and more people from the classes to the group chat, and more and more of the nice people you meet at the dances to the group chat (others in the group chat will be doing this too!)

* Before you know it, you'll have a new social circle of 20+ friends, hooray!
This is very simplistic reasoning. For instance:

> If you want to decrease unemployment, you add tariffs for imports enabling more businesses to open domestically (i.e. tariffs effectively increase import costs).

Unless your domestic business requires imported goods to run its business. Then you've just increased costs for your domestic industry.
Security engineers have a tendency to see a hole and tell you to fill it, independent of the threat model that is required to exploit it. Security is a business decision.

That being said, Twitter's stance on insider risk was a little too lax for my taste: my colleagues at a big tech were often asked by governments for their work passwords at country borders if the border patrols noticed they worked for the company, and had no choice but to comply. Preventing insider access to systems mitigates this risk to your employees.
I’m referring to there being a community effort to normalize performance metrics and results at all, with the M1 devices being in that list as well, so that we dont have to ask these questions to begin with

Are you aware of any wiki or table like that?
The problem is you install some random tool because you need it for a task, forget about it a few months later and then fail to keep it up to date and suddenly it exposes your device to vulnerabilities.

It’s not hostile for an employer to want to protect themselves from employee mistakes and there are ways to do this without invading an employees privacy.

> You have a different girl for every day of the week.

And that girl has a different guy for every day of the week.

It's like war. You only occupy the territory you control with your line of fire.

Likewise you only occupy the time of the person who is with you. As soon as they are out the door then you don't occupy anything anymore and other people will.

It's not a new concept either. All Playboy bunnies had boyfriends and they devoted their time 85% to their boyfriends and 15% to Hefner.

Hefner got more variety in exchange for less claim on each individual Playboy bunny time.
They'll tend to be low-end trim models but a lot of what you're evaluating in a test drive isn't how the heated seats work. I informally did that before my recent purchase but mostly in terms of what I didn't what to buy. One vehicle I knew I didn't care much for. And another, which was the same as I owned, I got hadn't really improved in 11 years, infotainment unit notwithstanding.

> Windows has ASIO for low latency, but is that a hardware capability thing

Yeah there's replacement ASIO drivers for the onboard sound such as ASIO4ALL or FLEXASIO. But I can agree with TremendousJudge that I've never gotten reasonable low latency with them, no matter my buffer size.

CoreAudio on mac works just fine however.
I persoally witnessed ball lightning. At the time, myself nor my family members that were with me knew it was that special. I mean, not that we had witnessed this before or since, but we had no idea that this was even disputed or had a name.

This tennis ball sized ball of lightning came in the house during a storm through our kitchen back door that stood open. It very slowly swerved acoross the floor at a few centimeters height. It was so slow you could have caught it, for which admittedly I felt the urge. We just stood around an watched it. Then it made it's way to the living room, slowly but surely making it's way towards the television (which was not turned on). When it got to about 2 or 3 meters from the set, it made a curved leap, sort of like a logarithmic curve, right to the center of the CRT. This took out the electricity not just in our house, but apparenrly in several houses down our street.

This must have been sometime late 70's or early 80's. If we had known how rare this was, I'm sure we would have made some sort of report or note. I only found out many years later people even doubted this phenomenon's existence.
A twist on the above comment: I _already own_ an M2 Mac, but I'm never gonna buy a high-end GPU to play around with this sort of tech. If the things people (who aren't gamers, crypto miners, or ML researchers) already own can be useful for some hobby-level work in the space, we'll see a lot more work and experimentation in the space. Its super exciting stuff.
"The estimated salary for a computer programmer is $62,420 per year in Brazil, IN."

As sibling has stated, Brazil (properly pronounced "BRAY-zil") is a small town in the U. S. state of Indiana. What amazes me though, as one that grew up probably 20 miles from the town, is that anyone in Brazil, IN is paying $62K/year. But it's been 30 years since I lived anywhere near there, looks like it's grown a little.
No, the future is to command all self driving cars to immediately accelerate to 100 mph and do not stop for whatever reason no matter what. Pure remote code execution.

Do you find it socially challenging to work alongside people who still work 5 days a week though? Do you feel that they are jealous?
They aren't relevant anymore for the same reason that USB cards, serial cards, network cards and SATA cards aren't relevant anymore. They still have their niche, and in commercial settings you'll still see HBAs (with SATA but mainly SAS), 10G+ network cards, and audio interfaces, but but for most of the personal computers the level of 'better than good enough' was already reached a while ago.

There is no point to using an add-in card if the facility is now on the main board and can do the task to the user's wishes.

The same thing can be said about many previously modular components where more and more is now simply a function of the main board itself. Take all the legacy I/O which used to be various chips, often on various add-in boards. They were all condensed into one single Super IO chip that can do all of it, but at a fraction of the size, cost and energy usage.

A lot of peripherals used to be implemented in separate chips and sometimes even discrete logic. If we were to try to do that today we'd either have to cut 90% of the currently available standard features or make the mainboard ten times as big to be able to implement it the old school way.
You can find lots of buggy images with bugs in all possible ways. But the vast majority of the images have consistent shading, perspective, and even global illumination. Some of it can be done in "screen space" (as in some standard game 2D post-processing filters) but lots of them couldn't work this way.

At some low level, pixel patterns are rendered and I guess you could say that this is "reproducing observed patterns". Would you say that about a 3D game engine as well that does the same when it textures local regions of pixels? A network is layered for this particular reason. The lowest layer will have less "understanding" than the higher layers.
my point is if the stock price jumps then the buyback occurs at a greater price per share, making the effect of the buyback less effective (fewer shares are eliminated)
Honesty if they vetted the candidates correctly and that greybeard was available for "trial period" damage control of new employee fuckups, I think it's a great method of running a consulting firm.

Trial by fire with the appropriate subject matter experts standing by is a great way to quickly broaden the broader talent pool in a sustainable way, while turning a profit on the free hands-on training being afforded to the new blood.

In a traditional organization you aren't afforded the sheer variability in deployments or pace of work afforded by consulting, so hiring someone completely green usually isn't the best exchange, even if the in-house expertise is available to provide the proper mentorship.

Maybe this is just me wishing I had a similar opportunity (or even just mentorship) but I would love to see this as more commonplace.

The participants of study referenced here tool 100mg tablets daily for 30-35 days. Before you start popping B6, keep in mind that supratherapeutic doses of >500mg pyridoxine have been linked to peripheral neuropathy and other CNS issues.

Furthermore, the whole subject of B6/B12 supplementation and dosage is muddied by all sorts of facebook groups and self-reported anecdotes as well.

I personally would stick to improving my diet rather then experimenting with supplements.
