Anecdotal:

I struggled with exercise asthma for as long as I can remember up until about a year ago (currently 28). I had in my head that I'd never be athletic for this reason. Last year I started heavily lifting weights with a trainer in order to correct some of the slouch I'd developed from programming and mentioned to my trainer that I would never be a runner because of the breathing issues.

I'm not sure if his response to that came from a place of wisdom or not, but he effectively told me to "quit making excuses and get after it" and started integrating runs into my workout. My lunch issues were always exacerbated in cold weather, and this was in November where the mornings were around 38f. It started with ~1km runs and I honestly thought this guy was killing me. I was bringing an inhaler in my truck and would use it between the "warm up" runs and doing weights because my lungs tight and on fire.

I was doing this routine 3 days a week that entire winter, and the length of the warmup run would range from 1-3km. I started noticing the pain less and less as the weeks went by. I actually started enjoying it, and began running on the days I wasn't going to the gym. I worked from 1 mile runs to consistently doing 4-5 5ks a week, with the occasional longer run. I still try to do 3-4 5ks a week to this day.

I hadn't really thought about it until this comment, which is probably what prompted this long-winded response. For me though, the solution was to just keep doing it. Your lungs get stronger.

If you can afford to sock away the money then you should. You may ultimately pay more than other people, or you may not, but you will have the comfort of knowing that she can afford to go to college without taking on a lot of debt.
Thanks for finding this! Maybe their pricing was just too good to be true! ;-)
The closest I've seen to original flash animation development interface is wick editor https://www.wickeditor.com but it doesn't seem to have a lot of support or be well known. It's probably better for targeting games and animation.
I've set up visreg tests in the past and they were always slow and brittle. This looks really modern and well documented system, congrats to the team! Always running them on GitHub actions will keep the sub pixel issues at a minimum, but do you also have configurable thresholds?

I was thinking about going into journalism for a time and an ex- broadcaster teacher of mine connected me with a journalist to talk to. One of the biggest things, he said, about being a journalist nowadays is you need to build your own brand. Most journalists nowadays don't get hired as staff writers, they mostly work freelance. So in order to stay relevant and keep getting work, they need to develop a SM presence and get likes, clicks, etc. That part was what really turned me off from journalism as any sort of career.

So what’s your solution to the average Joe losing a great deal of wealth just from the massive printing?
I don't think it's that big of a deal for good running watches. I ran the JFK50 with a three year old Garmin 935 with a heart strap (HRM-Tri) in a little under 11 hours. My watch was close to 50%. That was with GPS updates every second. It would have been much better if I left it at the default, not the ultratrac or whatever they call the endurance battery mode.
I think you're still not not getting the point Abbot is making.

> They already tried to build a system that uses merit and qualifications alone, and the complaint is how doing that has led to extremely biased results.

How did it produce "extremely biased results"? You're being vague here, but I suspect by "biased results" you mean they produced a racial (and perhaps gender) makeup you don't like. Abbot rejects the idea that a non-discriminatory admissions process is biased because it produces student body with the "wrong" racial makeup. His view is that picking a "right" racial makeup and utilizing discrimination to achieve it, is a form of bias.

Also how is it "intentionally inflammatory and insulting"? Are you aware that 62% of African Americans do not support the use of race in admissions?[1] Perhaps what's insulting is and admission process that looks like this: https://www.economist.com/img/b/1280/1482/90/sites/default/f...

If we consider the average diet bikes are still around 1/3 the emissions of cars per mile. Obviously if you eat only meat that gets worse but I doubt it’s possible to exceed car emissions this way.
When big companies collapse people take huge losses, lose the trust in the economy necessary for things to grow, and the economy is hurt for a long time. The bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers almost destroyed the entire financial system, slow-motion collapses like GE and Sears that take decades are vastly preferable
That sounds very close to a "No True Scotsman" type fallacy. I've done a fair bit of consulting in the past working with Scala, and my experience closely matches the one described in the grandparent post - the issues happened with veterans more than newbies in my experience (Although that's a function of mostly working with veterans and few newbies)
What's worse is the 'mostly false/true' stories and bit of info out there. Things like the French Mother Sauces, the exact time when you have three watches, what the Somme Offensive was like, etc. You think you have a good idea, you mostly do, but then you have just enough to move on and not know anything at all really. It's like the Murray Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect, but for everything.

I'm an English speaker, so I'm curious: Italian technically requires some accent marks, right? Do you have a quick way to do those from a US layout, or do you just ignore them in casual conversation the way people tend to ignore capitals and (some) punctuation?

What’s terrifying about it? Those are closed off systems hat provide exactly the user interface they are supposed to do. It’s not like they would run arbitrary code or are in any way modifiable by end users.

I’ve worked in Adobe air based infotainment systems 10 years back, and it was a great technology. Actionscript3/MXML was at that time far more advanced than JavaScript. It took maybe another 5 years and typescript and react to catch up.

I just miss AS3.

It was a really great language. Typed by default, but easy to do squishy dynamic types when you want. Easy to do FP things or traditional OOP, and to mix and match based on the problem.

Also, while the performance wasn't great, I did some very cool things with e4x binding in Flex.

We had reactive UIs back before that phrase was coined.

Query an API, update a xml variable with the results, and the entire UI would update based on bound e4x expressions.

It may be one of the reasons why I enjoy vanilla web components + lit-html for rendering. It feels a lot like having that same sort of simple, elegant and powerful rendering capability without the cruft of big frameworks.
Isn't link tracking orthogonal to IMAP? If you don't follow the links/load remote images/etc. on the client, then tracking doesn't occur. Unless I'm missing something?
I'm very curious, but what does "liberal" mean in your context? What country are you in?

I've tried googling but can't find anything related to a right-left-liberal distinction.

But in case it helps explain, at least in America, "liberal" has the basic connotation of "individual equality". Originally this meant equality before the law, often called "classical liberalism" which both left and right generally endorse.

But then the left become associated with a greater expanded equality -- more social programs, safety nets, education, etc. The left therefore became associated with the term "liberal" while the right with "conservative" -- liberals interested in greater social equality, conservatives believing in more of a natural social hierarchy (still on top of legal equality). Then conservatives came up with the moderately-used term "neoliberal" to promote their market-based economic policies based on classical liberalism, in opposition to the left-wing expanded equality social policies. There's also the term "libertarian" which refers to classical liberalism without anything added -- no social equality of the left, and also no conservative cultural values of the right.

But nevertheless, I'm extremely curious to know what you call liberal that is distinct from both right and left?
I can't particularly blame them for rejecting low-quality dot-matrix printouts.
Not sure whether it is an ORM, but some people like JOOQ quite a bit.
SSH supports FIDO2 so I'm not really sure the purpose of having an agent.
As a data point (probably closer to anecdote), I'd be willing to pay for just an email client. I don't know about recurring payments yet, but something like Superhuman-but-cheaper is definitely something I'd consider. My only real option right now is Outlook, I think.
If it is, then someone could explain me why TikTok links are not correctly referenced on Google?

It's always the Instagram links that pop out first, is there some shady business within Google?

There was some news article about CIA agents working for the big tech industries [1], and there is currently some effort to ban TikTok it seems [2]

So the open question, why do they push this "new search engine" narrative when it clearly is not the case, just do a google search and you'll see by yourself, alongside all with all the FUD about security/spy ?

I wonder what really happened. I'm guessing Galileo was one of those vocal people that just can't help poking the bear.

Edit: reading up a bit more it seems Galileo had a bit of a Linus T. streak, with gratuitous insults and ad hominems against authority. Makes me want to read the source documents now :-)
I often catch up on latest news around several topics, sports etc. Twitter is normally faster then news mediums. So every now and then I check the trends. Every single trend you click turns into a cess pit from tweet nr 2 or 3.

It’s plausible especially if you use PVs to charge. But what about the costs in producing and disposing of the batteries?
This gets to the heart of the problem and is even understated. If your audience is partisan, going against what they want to hear by providing nuance, context, or even straight news, can provoke extreme outrage. Perhaps people will recall when the NYT had to change a factually correct headline because it wasn't sufficiently critical of the previous president.
The fields are macroeconomics and labor economics. I don't understand your other question, so it's hard to answer. What do you mean by "discovered"? Discovered by whom, the employer or the the employee?

But you may be interested in knowing that models of labor markets are often based on matching models - you've got two groups (employers, employees) and everyobdy is trying to find {one,many} members of the other group that are a good match.
It’s likely they were using placeholder animations at such an early stage of the game’s production. I think we’ll see all-new animations for VI.

> I'm referring to core inflation because it shows upward trend across all prices

Hmm. I think you're mistaken. "CPI" is across all prices. "Core-CPI" is across most prices (ignores energy and food).

Turns out that poor people use electricity and eat food, at least in America. Upon first glance, it would seem that "CPI" is a better measurement. The issue, as I stated earlier, is that energy/food prices swing wildly in ways completely unrelated to economics. (Look: war in Ukraine... Food prices and Oil prices in peril. Its not "unimportant", its just unpredictable and unrelated to greater economic issues)

We ignore energy/food not because they're "unimportant", but because they're too volatile to draw conclusions from. Even without wars, there's famine, hurricanes, storms, disease, swarms, locusts, etc. etc. which wreck food/energy prices. Even with a perfectly balanced economy in a peaceful world, Mother Nature would still wreck us in an unpredictable fashion.

Unfortunately, this would trash the theatrical mix. Dialogue would roar from the center channel with every other channel operating at a whisper.

The right solution is to produce two mixes: a stereo home mix and a surround theatrical one. Make the stereo home mix the default. Any *-phile is going to make sure the movie is using the right mix beforehand anyway.
Yes. And also yes.

The graphics primitives the web provides are actually not that great at emulating Flash's specific graphics model. SVG and canvas differ from Flash in a few key areas, especially to do with masking; and WebGL/WebGPU are very low-level and rendering vectors on GPU is hell.

This could have been fixed by having Animate switch to an SVG+SMIL renderer for HTML5 projects, but Adobe wanted a quick fix to keep Animate relevant beyond Flash Player.
This might be true for spectators and top players, but for your average player, it is fine. In fact a chess puzzle starts from a seemingly random position and your task is to find the best move. And most amateurs still play the game with such inaccuracy that there are ample opportunities for dynamic play.

I do admit though that watching top level chess is often times really boring. The moves are really predictable and at the same time really hard to understand. Blitz and Bullet games are actually far more enjoyable (when replayed on slower mode), because if a player makes an inaccuracy I can understand the punishing move (or it can be explained to me rather).

If you want a more dynamic board game though, I do recommend Go. I at least still enjoy watching top level go in a way that I don’t with chess.
You can’t do that without also allowing lenders to not give loans. The entire mess is because we passed laws that require lenders to give loans out for school.

Pre these laws, they were passed for “equality”, lenders would laugh you out of the office if you tried to take a 10k lone out on a degree with a low likelihood of being paired back.

As a result we now have a bunch of crazy degrees people can get that have zero viability to make money, and even worse doctoral programs that just hand out Dr. Like it was candy.
Welcome the the club, mate. I'm a tail-end boomer (born 1963), and missed out on most of that gravy train boomers had. Apparently we are all selfish right-wing assholes.

Boomer hate is stupid. The enemy are the elites, corporations and billionaires.
The Mercator is like circumcision. There might be many reasons invoked for it, but the main reason is that it's just what people in the US are familiar with. Even with no real trade-offs it's fairly clear that Google would still have picked it.
Almost ninety minutes and it doesn’t even have the [flagged] tag. Impressive.
Before, you said that nobody in the local market has Bitcoin. Now you're arguing the opposite, that nobody in the local market wants Bitcoin. Sure, both can be true, when there's just no market. But that's a different argument.

Yes, I'm aware of it. I'm not sure if it's small enough for the Tillitis Key to be able to use it.
> The problem is that these people use events to give their name and their agenda some credibility and make it easier for the public to confuse their opinions with science.

Then this is a failure of public education and science journalism. Science journalism has indeed been failing the public for decades now, and have arguably been a big factor in the public's distrust of scientific institutions, so that's not surprising.

You don't solve this problem by banning speakers or restricting speech, you solve it by improving journalism and public education.

While the U.S.'s core strength has always been propaganda (they got Operation Paperclip Nazis to becom American patriots, got the USSR to abolish itself, and the young Russian Federation to destroy itself with its infamous "shock therapy"), China also has quite strong propaganda, especially in Africa. And in Europe, go back 30 years and people still saw Americans as liberators; now, Europeans see it as a corrupt third-world country where people can't afford healthcare.

And while it's true that U.S. cultural "force projection" hasn't weakened; they are being severely squeezed when it comes to trade dominance (https://merchantmachine.co.uk/china-vs-us/) and monetary dominance (see James Rickards' books).

America still has its hegemony, but the notion that it's declining is very much mainstream in academia (https://www.routledge.com/Americas-Allies-and-the-Decline-of...). Worse, its national security institutions have lost credibility among a significant portion of its electorate (MAGA people), and its military hegemony is now opposed by both populist left (pacifists) and populist right (non-interventionists). They're being squeezed both abroad and at home.

Yeah, during the day. Work from home and sneak in an hour or two here.

Building a company requires an incredible amount of hustle, if you can't figure out how to sneak in a couple of hours here and there to talk to people/pitch, sorry but that indicates a total lack of hustle.
I just can't understand how this makes sense, it seems like its the wrong way round. How can over analysis mean things are less optimal?

This is true of every sport, every single record always gets broken, because techniques and nutrition and training and everything improve. A world no 100 tennis player could easily beat a world no 1 from 50 years ago.

How is that bad or like poker? It just means the game is evolving. It might also mean more psychological games. The tennis analogy works here too, there's plenty of that in there too.

The whole premise just doesn't make sense to me. Because you have to psychologically think about your opponent, that makes the game worse?

The author states this myth perfectly:

Every cryptocurrency is its own pot of money. When people sell, they are taking money out of the pot. When people buy, they are putting money into the pot.

It's a popular myth but it's obviously bogus when you realize that for every buyer there is a seller.

So when people buy a gold bar, or 100 shares of AAPL or a cabin at the lake, the money the buyer puts in is exactly offset by the money the seller takes out.
Besides reasons that are already listed here keep und mind that Flash offered more APIs that browsers still don’t have - and so you can’t translate them to anything. RTMP based video streaming was one of those. Some other networking APIs might be other cases. Of course you could make it work with less APIs - but the usage ping of „your app might or might not work when translated“ is a bit smaller
One thought is that access to the source code (AIUI the source for GTA V was leaked as well as VI) will make it easier to develop hacks, to the detriment of the online experience for the player.

Or, more cynically, to the detriment of the bottom line for R*, as the hacks may give people a way to progress without buying shark cards.

On the upside, maybe it'll lead to some enterprising source divers to repeat that "fixed the insane loading times" feat of a while back.
Whether you walk it or run it, a mile is about 100 calories. So, give or take, ~20,000 calories. Divide by 3500 calories/lb. and he burned five pounds of fat he probably didn't have to spare. But not so fast, he was also consuming calories along the way, and consuming a lot.

So calculating the net burn would be quite difficult. But the gross burn was probably about five pounds/2.25Kg.
Now they can shut down accounts.

You think your bank can't shut down your account now?

The ability to monitor every transaction you make.

You think your bank and CC company can't do this now?

The only way to avoid being "monitored" is to use cash. And a CBDC won't change this.
I think that’s more of a right wing meme than reality. Plenty of TV shows and movies revel in “bad boy” storylines. I think what’s changed is that people expect some actual depth in explaining the motivations of “bad” characters, but I don’t think Rockstar has ever really struggled with that, their last few offerings have had relatively well rounded narratives.
It's good to see Apple behaving and recognising the momentum the Rights to Repair movement has got globally in the last few years (especially in the large market of EU, and now picking up in Asia). But I think iFixit has been too generous in giving the iPhone 14 a repairability score of 7 out of 10 when Apple still places additional unwanted hurdles and control through software:

> We are hearing reports that Apple is continuing their hostile path of pairing parts to the phone, requiring activation of the back glass after installation. You really shouldn’t need Apple’s permission to install a sheet of glass on a phone that you already own. Using software to prevent the use of aftermarket parts gets a big thumbs down from us. These locks are frustrating and ultimately futile—Apple simply can’t control all the repairs that happen with their products, no matter how hard they try.
wow almost 10 years...
This blog does not inspire confidence when it cites studies which classify people from "extreme liberal" to "extreme conservative". Much of the US left has rejected the term liberal for decades (check out Phil Ochs' classic "Love me, I'm a liberal"). You throw away way too much information when you just use people's self identification on a scale like that.
