Not really and this is the problem.

My quality of life decreased after my booster shot. Had severe reaction and my athletic performance dropped quite a bit afterwards never going back to the baseline pre-vaccine. Also having more heart palpitations and a decrease on VO2max.

But apparently when I talk about this, I am either labelled anti-vaxx (even though I got the damn vaccine), a conspiracy crazy or people try to justify my issues with something else that magically coincided with the date I took the booster.
> Germany relatively adopted an uppercase ß (and got it into Unicode)

The parenthetical part is true. It was an uphill battle, but not because of the consortium, but because of what the tropes wiki would describe as executive meddling.

The adoption is not recent, but about 110 years old. You have the wrong idea because of sloppy journalism.

> I’ve never seen it in the wild

I see it all the time. Maybe you are undercounting. Pay attention to non-standard letterforms on hand-written signs, and you also have to include print media where someone substituted lower-case ß in absence of a glyph in a font. This is a typographic mistake, but the intent is clear.

It really is a matter of convenience. Linus's work is obviously mostly with computers and servers, where you often work in tighter spaces; not having to reposition your whole hand (and/or pull the screwdriver out of the screw and reposition it because of a lack of space) is a nice convenience. Plus, most computer screws are not really tightened very much, so you'll be done with a few flicks of your wrist.
He also explicitly mentions he uses the ratchet by turning only the axle and keeping the handle steady in his hand for a lot of the screws.

> "I have been exploring a special prompt that I will be publishing at a later date, I have created 100s of images using it, and after many weeks of fine tuning and curating my gens, I chose my top 3

A human made the '100s of images', and finessed it down to get what they're looking for. Then, this human picked their favorite. Presumably the human also named this. There's plenty of human intention here.
Confusing antisemitism, anti-sionism and disagreement with the politics of Israel is a strategic ploy voluntarily put in place by expansionist lobbying groups. The most right wing part of Israel absolutely doesn’t want the world to take a look at what they are doing. As these groups contribute generously to political campaigns in the USA and Europe, politicians are all to happy to play ball. It has reached a point where you can’t even criticise what the Knesset is doing without being labelled anti-sionist and therefore antisemitic.

That's not the argument being made.

If you're not sick you should not be subjected to too much testing, because the risk is that you are diagnosed with a thing that will not harm you. And once you're diagnosed with it the tendency is to treat you for it. Treatment is not a neutral option, it carries risk.

Over-testing, over-diagnosis, and over-treatment all contribute to patient harm.
As with all guidelines, this always depends on the starting point and personal data.

If you are on the heavier side and a heavy drinker and carb eater, going low carb/no alcohol you will lose easily 10 kilos in a month (mostly being water weight).

If you are a healthy weight and eating normally with a glass of wine here and there, 0.5-1kg is probably a good range (and probably around 70% of it being fat loss)

If you are lean, 0.25-0.5kg a week is a good goal (and probably 50% will be fat).

Nothing 'odd' here, if one subscribes to the notion that Revelation (the last book of the Bible) is predictive.

The original idea of right to buy, as discussed by Labour, in the late 70s was to reinvest the money from sales in building new council houses.

The Tory policy implementation sold them off cheap and slowly ratcheted down the amount of the sales price going to that purpose and the building dramatically slowed. Again, not an accident or unintended effect.

Basically bribing the better off council house owners into voting conservative (and for policies that cause the housing crisis) at the expense of the poor.

Something programmer's believe about e-mail which is absolutely true: it has grown needlessly complex.
I doubt anyone is crazy enough to implement the email spec for comparing emails, to be fair. I would honestly be surprised if any publicly available mail agent or server supports that craziness.
For what it's worth, I absolutely have no patience and do not take care. If i need it open or close i just yank it. No straightening, no taking care and especially no patience or slowing down. If the first yank doesn't work i can just use two hands and yank the zipper and the fabric in opposite directions and it will function properly, no really a need to patiently straighten anything. Yet, can't even remember the last time I had issues with a zipper. You might be overthinking this a bit.
You're a little confused, the number was 276hp/280PS/206kW.
I think the philosophy is that as much as possible is done by composing cmdlets within the PS ecosystem, Select-String being kind of like grep and PS itself being the one language for all scripting. There's a lot that 'awk or perl' could map to; here's a (made-up) example of converting dates in certain files from 'August 1, 2022' to '2022-09-01':

sls '(ERROR|WARNING)' *.log | %{$_.Path} | %{ (gc $_) -replace '\b\w+ \d\d?, \d{4}\b',{
[datetime]$d = 0
[datetime]::TryParseExact($_.Value, 'MMMM d, yyyy', [cultureinfo]::InvariantCulture, 0, [ref]$d)
? $d.ToString('yyyy-mm-dd')
: $_
} | Out-File $_ }

PS's advantage: leaning on .NET for doing things the right way.

The above has mostly top-level pipes like the Unix equivalent. You could also start with Get-ChildItem and skip the Select-String, instead having a conditional within a ForEach-Object, which certainly can masquerade as awk:

ls -file|%{gc $_|% -begin{"Counting in $_";$n=0}{if($_-match'\b\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}\b'){$n++}}-end{"$n lines"}}

demonstrating that PS one-liners can be just as readable as those of Unix tools!

But, as you've identified, the pain in pipelines with native commands is real. No subshells or named pipes, naturally. All command output is parsed and re-serialized—anything binary, or with linefeeds, or UTF-8 without BOM is, as expected, silently corrupted. At least that's being worked on (https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/1908) -- the hindsight shell manages to have an immense amount of WTF locked in, turned into wontfixes by Microsoft's backwards compatibility.

Megapro may have larger economies of scale and therefore lower costs, or Megapro may have already paid off / amortized the cost of development and so felt its margins were already without having that included in the price anymore.
It’s a common abbreviation for million in finance. (It’s closer to the M is 1000 in Roman numerals than to the stacked SI prefix usage.)

How? It means I have a reasonable idea of the complexity involved. Sure, "too much" is a subjective term, but .. look around, there really aren't all that many people doing it any more, just like everyone bemoans the movement of blogs to social media.

I still have the domain, because it's also too much hassle to change an email address which you've used in a lot of places, it's just delegated to a small ISP to run the actual MTA.
>You might be looking for a <..> specialist but you don’t want to attract people who are only interested in particular languages. Because that person’s narrow focus will hinder their growth.

Exactly what I have been witness to was this taken to the test. Result:

* You hire devs who do not like (or worse: hate) working in the language of the shop. They scold at the application they have to maintain and run, they do not contribute libraries or fixes, and topic number 0 at all larger meetings is "how we should rewrite everything in TypeScript/Go/Kotlin/whatever-tech-the-freshly-hired-senior-person-likes-best"

* You hire devs who do not care about the ecosystem. When the time comes to fix an external dependency which is not up to snuff, they will be saying things like "well if this app was written in $my_favourite_lang instead, this would have been so much easier"

* You create an infighting culture between people who do like to work with the current setup and people who want to destroy it and replace it with their favourite setup, be it for language preference or for "getting promoted" reasons

Briefly: no, I think it is absolutely imperative - especially at a company which is not polyglot - that even if it is not a requirement to be super-proficient in the main tech at the shop, it must be a requirement - and not a soft requirement - that the eng. be prepared to work, explore and develop in that tech. If this requirement is not present or not met, you are setting up your company for turf wars potentially for years to come.

Not completely on-topic, but there is a known dynamic where cats prefer to sit on the lap of cat-phobics.

A cat enters the room, sees a lot of people making noise and movements. The exception is someone sitting very stil. This person, as seen trough the eyes of a cat,is the ideal cat seat, who cares if he's literally scared stiff.

The solution is for cat-phobic people to make extravagant movements, so the cat chooses someone calmer.
Maybe they want to do this for a couple of years and save money for a house deposit, once you get the house, just stick to one job.
In my experience, the voices you read on Reddit are a special breed of high-anxiety thinkers. Especially in dating/relationship threads. I think a lot of people on there are bent out of shape from some experience, and that’s why they’re on Reddit talking about dating and relationships instead of doing them. I avoid using reddit posts as a gauge for anything about people in real life. Not saying go out and start hitting on women at the bus stop, but there’s nothing weird or socially unacceptable about talking to strangers if you don’t make it weird. Just ask a small question or make a comment about something in the environment. Don’t say “I couldn’t help but notice your beautiful eyes m’lady.” Band shirt, how do you cook that vegetable, whatever. If there’s tension, she’ll invite you to keep talking to her. If there’s not, move on.
We’ve never had so few rights over our own property, and so many over that of others.

I feel this acutely as I have waited years to be allowed to change a leaky roof. It's still not fixed.

I've also been waiting a month for a permit to fix an existing fence. I don't even know why I should need a permit for that at all.

Yet I can show up to a planning meeting and complain that I don't like the applicant's proposed landscaping, causing them three months of delay and the accumulation of huge additional expense.

It's ridiculous. I can hardly stomach doing basic repairs like this. Building something like a brand-new dental office seems unimaginably difficult.

https://www.britannica.com/topic/fascism/Opposition-to-parli...

> Mussolini, a leading member of the Italian Socialist Party (Partito Socialista Italiano) before World War I, became a fierce antisocialist after the war. After coming to power, he banned all Marxist organizations and replaced their trade unions with government-controlled corporatist unions. Until he instituted a war economy in the mid-1930s, Mussolini allowed industrialists to run their companies with a minimum of government interference. Despite his former anticapitalist rhetoric, he cut taxes on business, permitted cartel growth, decreed wage reduction, and rescinded the eight-hour-workday law. Between 1928 and 1932 real wages in Italy dropped by almost half. Mussolini admitted that the standard of living had fallen but stated that “fortunately the Italian people were not accustomed to eating much and therefore feel the privation less acutely than others.

> In the political discourse of the fascist right, economic problems related to large disparities of wealth between rich and poor were treated as problems of social status and class prejudice. Rather than attacking upper-class wealth, fascists attacked upper-class snobbism.

> Fascist movements criticized parliamentary democracy for allowing the Marxist threat to exist in the first place. According to Hitler, democracy undermined the natural selection of ruling elites and was “nothing other than the systematic cultivation of human failure.” Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s minister of propaganda, maintained that the people never rule themselves and claimed that every history-making epoch had been created by aristocrats.

That last one could have been inserted into the current article and fitted perfectly.

The trick there is to ensure things work nicely if different subsets are iterated one after the other.

> If you only know java are you even a real (professional) dev?

I'm a polyglot but Java is the language I used the most and I can guarantee you there are many professional dev I met and worked with that only know Java and make their comfy living writing only Java. Java is powering the real world since more than two decades now and the JVM is some rock solid tech with extensive tooling, so they can get away with only knowing Java.

A dev can definitely focus only on Java and, for better or worse, makes all his career, from his first job until retirement (to me it's obvious Java is here to stay and it's going to dwarf COBOL's legacy), writing only Java.
This is clearly the death of art as we know it. By removing any and all skill from the process of creation, it inevitably renders the creation worthless.

100% is a bit of an exaggeration. I’ve heard of one place with a 100% overhead rate and it was for something very specialized (marine research vessels, which probably do eat money). Everywhere else I know of is near 50 percent, and this includes “famous” places (Yale, McGill, MIT, Georgetown, etc).

The overhead rates are supposed to reflect the University’s actual costs and are negotiated with the government, so I suppose you could try to make a FOIA request for them.
The point of the article here is that if it's a language your company uses, learning it is part of your dev job.

I'm sure this is the fear, but the perceived risk surely outweighs the actual risk.

It's not like there would be zero repercussions for posting nude beach pics on mainstream social media, and anywhere else (niche, personal website, porn forums/sites) means almost nobody you ever know would ever see pics of you au naturel. Ever.

But, yes, I agree this is the fundamental (even if I think irrational) fear.
That's just as true with SVN, (for the local in-progress working copies) but with a single, centralized history. Which is how most devs use git anyway (essentially emulating a centralized versioning system workflow), and in this case the distributed nature of git allowing many alternative histories is unnecessary in the best case, and massively gets in the way in the worst case (because for most projects a single history is actually a feature).
> I originally claimed that data-driven culture leads bad arguments involving data to be favored over good arguments that don’t

This is symptomatic of the deeper problem of thinking in terms of bumper stickers and slogans, instead of thinking from first principles. When it afflicts educated people, usually you hear slogans like "an anecdote is not data", or "that's the slippery slope fallacy". Instead of grappling with noisy reality, they have sharp cognitive categories with firm boundaries between concepts, then they try to squeeze things into these categories in order to make cognition easier because the relations between the categories are already understood. This gives them the illusion of rigorous and clear thought.

In the context of an art competition those are all reasonable arguments. For a competition between humans to be meaningful, there have to be artificial constraints put in place.

For a weightlifting competition, those constraints are things like "don't use steroids" and "don't use an invisible string to assist you in lifting the weights".

For an art competition, the constraints might be things like "don't use AI to generate the image" or "don't hire another artist to do the work for you".

In all of these cases, breaking the constraints is still work. Using steroids is dangerous and may be illegal. Hiring another artist is time consuming and expensive. Getting good results from an AI model takes many iterations and a lot of tweaking.

If you just care about the result then it doesn't matter how the heavy lumps of metal were lifted, or who created the aesthetically pleasing artwork. But if you care about the competition, then these constraints are important.
