I'm pretty certain you're correct. It seems to me that we won't get to the bottom of this until the study of intergenerational and cultural change becomes a much more established science. And for that to happen we need much more research into the matter. Moreover, the objectives of any such research should be clearly defined and then rigorously carried out.

This subject is a political football and the individual views and biases of researchers often taint the data. We won't make significant progress until we find ways of minimizing this problem.
Curious as I did not understand that limitation on speech. So the employer is free to fire you if your speech is deemed to be workplace behavior? Is all speech directed at your employer considered workplace behavior?

FWIW, VS Code doesn't really work on Wayland either. For many people it still links against outdated Electron, which means a lot of Wayland-native features are broken out-of-the-box.

I don't disagree that native apps should be a goal, but what does it matter with a video call app? Even Apple knew they had to throw in the towel here, Facetime can call direct-to-web now. Arguably, Microsoft's reluctance to make a good Skype webapp could be cited as one of the reasons for it's demise. Who knows, maybe we'd all be Skyping people still if Microsoft didn't wait until 2019 for a truly nice PWA. It won't save Teams as a product, but it would be a fine way to salvage it as an application.

If you want an attractive groupware tool, it has to work on everyone's system. If you want an attractive IDE/text editor, it has to be the best for that specific system. These two goals, markets and products are completely distinct. By recognizing this dichotomy, I think they're strengthening their product lineup.
Beep beep, motherfucker!
You have my sympathies. I skimmed the article but I've read quite a lot of the report, which is considerably more detailed.

Viewed from the Right, these guys have a pretty standard left-liberal internationalist agenda. For example, my country Israel gets the yellow alert status more or less because HRW said the word 'apartheid'. Of all the various impositions Israel makes on Palestinians, limiting their freedom of expression is probably close to the bottom of the list. Or the USA remarks are about Trump and the 6th of January, even though FOSTA-SESTA is demonstrably doing far more every day to restrict free speech. (Between MAGA and FOSTA, which is getting Cloudflare to terminate people's accounts?) Or more generally, 'discourse control' as used to describe the strategies both of Putin and of Bukele – come on.

I could go on, but I probably shouldn't. To me, the interesting thing is that in despite of the report's slant, it is thorough, specific and quantitative. If I just ignore the blah blah, it's still quite apparent that there's a real trend across all continents towards restricted speech. It's really remarkable when you see the same thing happening on all continents. If the thread had been about which parts of the report are bullshit and which are accurate, maybe some people would have learned something, because I'm pretty sure there'd be wide agreement about maybe 70% of what's in there.

Well, LA has some nice weather...Have you considered maybe looking into a three-wheeler like a Can Am Spyder [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Can-Am_motorcycles]? (As someone who is a big fan of motorcycles, I used to recommend folks to consider the wonderful life of 2 wheels, but i understand not everyone would be into it...plus LA traffic might make conventional motorcycles risky for new riders.) Of course, I'm assuming that an alternative like that a three-wheeler might be cheaper, or more obtainable (either new or used). Then again, if your job is not far from where you will live, could a bicycle fit the need - either electric or conventional?
For read-only properties/fields, the useful pattern for Newtonsoft is to just provide a parametrized constructor. There are multiple ways to implements this and all of them are well documented.

When it comes to performance - are you sure your code doesn't do anything that pessimizes it? Regular JsonConvert.Serialize/.Deserialize work well and are reasonably fast. Obviously, if you use a lot of custom contract revolvers with heavy uncached reflection and large allocations, it will destroy the performance but almost no library can fix bad user-provided implementations, best case is to design API in a way that will nudge towards efficient patterns but that's it.

Keep in mind that assumptions, especially brought from different languages, may cause a user to unnecessarily shoot themselves in the foot, especially when they are solved by spending 15 minutes to go over suggested usage patterns in the documentation.

In addition, I think it is counter-productive to judge a completely unrelated Json library in BCL by your experience on a limited scenario with Newtonsoft where its defaults were simply different from expectations. The criticism listed is applicable to software that was released about a decade ago, on a platform with features (GAC) that have long become legacy. (e.g. GAC is a very old feature, .netfw 4.6.2 was released 8 years ago, Newtonsoft 9.* - 6 years ago, etc.)

I'm not saying all libraries are perfect, but experimenting with implementations in Rust, Java and Swift left me with impression that C# packages are solid and relatively easy to use even not the most popular ones, and DOM-like JObject/JToken were quite nice to use too for untyped payloads.

Last but not least, during the days of .NET Framework, the fastest implementation was Utf8Json losing only to optimized binary serializers which had to perform less work, it was nowhere near as popular or as feature-rich as Newtonsoft but in performance-sensitive scenarios it was very nice due to pooling internal buffers, emitting efficient IL stubs for serialization and using many other tricks to reduce overhead as much as possible.

Anyway, Utf8Json is sadly deprecated but STJ provides very good performance OOB and if you need even more, SpanJson and SimdJson can give you even better numbers, enjoying newer perf-focused features of the language and research done on JSON serialization. .NET today is much, much better and very different from .NET Framework of 10 years ago. Saying otherwise is not much different behavior from the people who keep yelling "msft bad, closed source windows only garbage!" for whatever reason.
>That’s not a diss to AWS security mind you, I’m sure it’s top of the line.

Top of the line security looks like door locks with daily changing codes and number pads with lcds on them that scramble the order of the digits. It looks like regular searches of your effects as you leave the building, badged and guarded entrances that operate like airlocks, security that roams the building and leaves your manager a nasty note if the wrong documents are left in the open on your desk along with a computer and network that actually won’t let you install software. This was my first job and it felt normal.

I wish ios would allow me to firewall my phone, even from apple.
The issue is most users would be better served with a black box. If there's a way in, malice will get there, regardless of user and developer intent.
or... read the license and make sure you can comply with it. And if you don't know, or are unsure, ask for help.

it's absurd to me that you'd need to put every library through compliance even if it has very straight forward OSS licenses.

Agreed.

You are in essence looking for GDPR. It calls for huge fines in case of violations and thus should ideally enforce strong security standards.
They're commodity items that eventually get folded into the main CPU to reduce costs for manufacturing. This is the majority of the market.
>"why are we raising children this way when we weren't raised this way ourselves?"

Because CPS will come and you'll be charged with child endangerment if you let your kid have "too much" independence. And naturally the kids will ask questions about why they can't do this or that, and many people will know "because CPS would take you away" is a bad answer (or one the kid will ignore) so they lie about the dangers. It's a shit sandwich situation to be in.
I purchased my current vehicle through an auto broker - for a fee, a description of the model/trim level, and the name of the dealership I want to pick the car up at (anywhere in Canada), they would negotiate on my behalf. Once they have a final price I sign off on it, and would be told the date to pick it up and make payment.

It was a stress-free experience and I would definitely recommend you look into that if you really hate the idea of buying a car.
Dietary creatine associated with reduced risk of depression
>To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine the relationship between dietary creatine intake and risk of depression in a nationally representative U.S. sample. We found that MDD prevalence among U.S. adults follows a step-wise decrease corresponding to an incremental increase in dietary creatine consumption. Depression prevalence was 42% higher among adults in the lowest quartile (0–0.26 g) compared to adults in the highest quartile (0.70–3.16 g) of creatine consumption. In comparison, depression prevalence among persons with low creatine intake mirrors what has been estimated among persons with chronic medical conditions such as Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus50. After controlling for demographic and lifestyle variables, the risk of screening positive for depression was 31% lower among adults in the highest, compared to the lowest, quartile of creatine consumption.
Just to clarify, individual insurance companies do not have this sort of power. But collectively, as a lobbying group, they definitely do.
Vinblastine anti-cancer drug brewed from reprogrammed yeast
I said it on the original story, and I'll say it again here: No one is surprised that security at twitter is a shit show. We all know that it's a disaster zone. It's a tech company that somehow managed to add nothing of value for almost a decade. It's 2013, the company just IPO'd, people are suggesting an edit button. It's 2022, twitter is releasing a limited experimental roll out of the edit button for it's 7 paid subscribers.

So yeah, no shit it's dysfunctional, and insecure, and bad in a million different ways. The fear with facebook is that these incredibly smart, motivated, amoral monsters are going to figure out how to drip dopamine into our brains to manipulate us into destroying western democrcacy so they can advertise more sneakers. The fear with Twitter is that someone trips over the wrong cable and the entire site goes down and never comes back.
Did you not read the linked article? One point FTA that might have some bearing: "Nobody had analyzed Jewish ancient DNA before because of prohibitions on the disturbance of Jewish graves. However, we did not know this until after doing the genetic analyses."
> I think stronger labour laws are generally a good idea, employment is survival. The full extent is out of scope for this discussion but I've seen many deplorable examples of employee abuse beyond being fired for expressing an opinion. Reprehensible is an interesting term, I think it's at the core of this issue.

I think some views are reprehensible. Someone who says e.g. black people are subhuman or glorifies the Nazis is exposing reprehensible views in my opinion. And I am very adamant that I don't need to be tolerant of this intolerance. That doesn't necessarily mean that those views should be forbidden, but I will certainly not interact with you if you expose those views. They clearly cross the line.

> I gave a couple ideas in a comment below for algorithms so I'll you check that out.

OK will do

> I don't understand the basis of the question with regards to the journalist, could you elaborate why you'd want a different algorithm for this female journalist?

Sorry I was not sure how to take your comment, so I was not fully engaging in good faith. I was referring to gamer gate. But I apologise it was not a good comment.

> With regards to the media I answered that in another comment too. Tax incentives and government subsidies are an idea but it's tricky, it depends on the implementation. We have a lot of government influence over the media already so we're not starting from a blank slate. Everything needs to be weighed, I don't have the skills to do so.

I agree with you, this is definitely not easy. I do observe that broadly speaking "government sponsored" media, like e..g the BBC in the UK, the ABC in Australia or the German ARD, ZDF,... are significantly less sensationalist.

A choline supplement is certainly necessary for someone who does not eat any kind of meat.

However, I strongly suspect that the official recommended daily intake of choline is wrong, because it is practically impossible for someone eating a healthy diet to reach that level of choline intake.

Except for eggs, liver is the food with the highest content of choline, much higher than almost everything else. Nevertheless, it is impossible to eat enough liver daily to get enough choline, because that would require to eat an excessive amount of vitamin A. With eggs it would possible to get enough choline, but that would require eating 4 eggs every day, which is considered too much by many studies.

I believe that the study that established the recommended daily intake of choline based on the appearance of fatty liver was flawed, because there must have been some other factor, in the diet or in the diseases of the monitored patients, which diminished their internal capacity of choline synthesis, so they required supplementation with a higher quantity of choline than most people.

Among the extra minerals that vegans need, is also calcium. Some types of Centrum contain calcium, but not all of them. Most types of Centrum should include the other supplements needed by vegans and not explicitly mentioned by you, e.g. iodine, vitamin B12, vitamin D.

Like thinking he ordered X amount but it was actually Y amount, or placing an order and it taking so long you forgot about it so you place it again, or ordering the wrong product code and failing to verify it, or skimming over the order and missing that the salesman added extras for whatever reason and signing it anyway, or…

If he didn’t remember placing the order, or believed that the order was modified, then at worst he’s mistaken, not lying.
>I use a gender neutral restroom, but our office has none. ... Political?

Yes, don't use the bathroom at office.

>I use they/them pronouns, and I ask politely for others to use them... Political?

Absolutely, it is the very visible agenda of a very loud political machine. It's nothing but political. It can be an example of "political, n." in a dictionary.

That said, you don't need to be fired over everything political you do, just like discussing a little politics with your office colleagues once in a while is not necessarily an offence. Just as long as you stay respectful and polite when someone says no, they won't use your nonsense pronouns, very fine.

>Cause I've been told that being a queer person is political.

I doubt someone actually said that unironically, you're very likely deleting tons of context.

But the long and short of it is that no identity is political unless you make it, given the stereotypical "queer" person, I absolutely empathize with whoever said that statement to you, but "queerness", whatever that may be, itself is not necessarily making you political at work, it's just the kinds of people attracted to it. In theory, every ideology of every shape and color and identity can coexist under temporary and concrete banners like "make money".
Struggle with this too. One keyword which helps is 'wide angle'. Sometimes 'full body shot' works for generating humans.

The real change started with the kidnapping and murder of Eton Patz in 1979. The case was nationally publicized, and was one of the factors leading to putting pictures of missing children on milk cartons. That really scared a lot of parents (I do understand that the fear was mostly irrational).

"And it's simply because there's high demand, low inventory, and they can do it."

Supply & Demand. It's the law.
Incorrect. Individual insurance companies make do underwriting screenings and audits of clients who present certain types of risks. They can deny coverage or deny claims based on the results. On this topic (and several others) I'm something of an expert.
Yup, particularly if you have a series of meetings (for example, standup) then the chat for yesterday's standup ends up being the same chat for today's standup.

Adds a lot of continuity to repeated meetings and can serve as an adhoc meeting notes location.
They forgot the first step, which is you probably don't need or want a PWA, and neither do your users.
Yep, and edge webview2 uses edge for the most part. Yet there's something specific to the edge webview2 runtime that makes it hard to port even if edge itself is already available on mac/linux. I think it's because it uses some windows specific APIs to expose functionalities that aren't available to regular webviews (maybe the optional process and runtime sharing?)

They were planning on maybe releasing the linux port around the end of 2021, as they were prioritizing the mac port first.

But I don’t think even the mac port has been released yet... So it kind of makes sense for the Teams team (ha!) to just not bother with a linux release if the runtime they are developing on isn't even on the release roadmap yet. Though I guess that makes the switch from electron even more confusing.

My last large employer handled licensing and defects via periodic scans and background removals/uninstall.

The convenience is a factor for some, but perceived safety is probably the primary factor for most. They may not be able to afford to pay thousands extra, but they can even less afford to be scammed or buy a lemon. So they will compromise on the model or age or mileage of the vehicle and get a little less car for their budget.
The current labor laws force somebody else's view of what is "full-time" employment on everybody. The ideal of "everybody is free to enter into contracts" doesn't result in crushing employees to dust. It results in businesses that treat their employees poorly going out of business. Competition is required for a healthy economy. In many markets the US has legislated to protect the incumbent businesses at the request of lobbyists. Such legislation allows businesses to treat their employees like shit because starting a competitor is costly and cumbersome due to regulations.

We can have a free and open market and legislation to protect individuals from abuse by employers. Setting a required number of hours to work to qualify as "full-time" and a minimum wage are dictating what an individual is allowed to negotiate for themselves. A high number of work hours or extremely low pay are not abusing individuals if they agreed to work for a company knowing full well what they got in return.

Allow people to make their own choices, whether you agree with them or not, and you will be surprised by the result.
Speaking as the TL of Lighthouse and PageSpeed, I can comfortably say that adding complexity is antithetical to our goal. Quality UX and a reliably performant web is what we want for all users.

Ideally, folks would use a thinner stack with _less_ JS, as that's rewarded across all the metrics. But in recent years, many teams build a "site" by building a SPA. As they're entrenched in that dubious decision, the only path to making it performant is adding SSR complexity. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Perhaps its the apparent conflict between UX and DX that leads to tooling complexity?

And to nitpick: Core Web Vitals debuted with 3 metrics, one of them being FID. The focus on runtime/JS performance has been there from the start. Regardless, I hard agree on your last paragraph.
If you work in financial services (banks, brokerages, hedge funds, exchanges), heath insurance, or the defense industry… your device will be locked down.
