>Why would you think a company is going to take care of you?

You would think that because 50 years ago it was the norm. Companies had pensions. Companies used to have cost-of-living wage increases in addition to annual performance increases. The reward for working at a company for 20 years used to be a cushy management position, less work and more pay. Now it's a coupon for $10 off at a chain restaurant.

If you put yourself in that mindset, company loyalty is obvious. Find a job you like, and stick with it until retirement. But that isn't the case anymore.

Against the law and you can get a DUI for this too. It’s actually pretty dangerous. This includes other things too like scooters. E-Bikes can go pretty fast and cause serious injury too.

If you were riding a bike drunk and drove into or were hit by a car you would probably be hurt pretty badly. If you ran into something else, or another person, same deal.

The problem was that you reduced all of that ("all this to say") to a single blob of dumbness ("I'm a contrarian") which the OP never actually said. The problem with that kind of comment is it makes discussion more predictable and less interesting.

I understand the impulse to take someone's work and reduce it to a single obvious gesture of stupidity - it feels good because it feels like one has explained something and expunged an irritant - but it isn't fair and it isn't what this forum is for.

There's another guideline that applies to cases like this too:

"Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith."
And flagged this for it. No tolerance for this kind of crap, the guidelines are clear, the original title being false or misleading is when you shouldn't use the original title.

I simultaneously rarely use cash and would hate to not be able to use cash.
'I like to use' is not the same as 'mandatory.' You can call a taxi, you can beg a lift, you can hitchhike, you can walk, you can drive.

The Netherlands has a supermarket (Marqt) which does not accept cash. Thankfully, there are alternatives. Marqt is also so expensive that you're either a yuppie with a debit card or can afford to pay a shopper if you're getting your food there.

Would you actually need to have the vibrating motors correspond to north to make it work? I assume that your mind would eventually map things even if it was motors vibrating at different fingertips or something else that didn't easily correspond to compass directions, as long as it was consistent.
I think you're trivializing the issue quite a bit. But yes, I dislike the paternalism of considering everyone else on the internet stupid and incapable to making informed decisions when facing questionable points of view.

I'm not qualified to speak with any authority about this issue, but my opinion is that people that are willing to shoot other people most likely have other incentives than reading a singular's dude online hate ramblings. The problem lies with the fact that they gets ostracized and _all_ they are able to read are the hateful things. If you go through the thread above, you'll see that my stance is the complete opposite of that: let's allow people say the "bad" things and balance them out with other peoples' "good" things.

This theoretically would ensure that this person is not exposed to only hate and negativity, and will hopefully make a better decision than ending others' life and their own.

Forcing this unbalanced individual to retreat into a corner of the internet where his opinion on other people goes unchallenged is unquestionably A BAD THING, and I doubt I'll change my mind on this fact any time soon.
I don't think it is a question of how far you are from magnetic north. The north paw device helped people identify where magnetic north is relative to your current heading.
For me its two factor authentication at work. The building was constructed in such a way that there is somehow no cell service at all in the building. I had a smartphone all this time but not the actual two factor app, I would have it call my phone and do a keypress but that only worked when I was working from home. When I go into the office, those calls don't go through, neither does texting a list of codes.

There are other things in life that are certainly a lot more convenient with a smart phone. I rely on public transit, bussing and trains, and if I didn't have a smartphone that would make it a lot more difficult to navigate. Sure I could pull up a paper map of the bus routes and estimate what routing might be the most optimal to get to my destination by hand, and call up the transit agency operator line with my buss stop ID to ask when the next bus is slated to appear, but its infinitely easier to just use google maps and be done with it. When I am on the first bus and anticipating transferring to another bus, unless I knew that bus stop ID for the transfer point ahead of time I cannot call ahead and know when my transfer bus is arriving, for example.

> An electric heater usually consumes 2000 Watt, that is not really something that should bring the electric grid to its knees.

That's an additional 40GW when all gas-heated apartments use one of those heaters. You'd need ~30 additional nuclear reactors to sustain such a load -- the 3 remaining ones in Germany provide 1.4GW each.

In your original posting, you say "helping is enough" but clearly it isn't. If it were really enough, you would have your needs met and would not need payment. So this is perhaps more like someone saying they don't have an appetite and don't want to eat. In the short term, you can follow such a feeling and fast without issues. But if you have a persistent lack of appetite, you eventually either force yourself to eat anyway or you become incapacitated. There is no more logic to it than this.

What is the basis of your reluctance to ask for payment? To have recognized the logical problem but still feel "blocked" as you said in another comment here, there must be some other emotional or subconscious context. Unfortunately, we can only make scattered probes into this hidden realm.

You have had regular salaried work and would consider going back to it. Would you do that but reject the paychecks? If not, why not? What's different other than the "batching" of the transactions? Do you have anxiety about asking and being rebuffed? Do you have embarrassment about exposing needs of your own? Do you have some magnanimous fantasy you can't let go of?

Without knowing you at all, I'd suggest reframing your question as how to find a happy and sustainable income for yourself. The goal is not to work. The goal is to support yourself, and work happens to be the way this is usually done. You know you need income to survive. If you did not need income, then you could focus all your time on hobbies or charity.

You know you have some preferences for your work scope. With a stable salaried position, you are in some sense coalescing your payment and work-scope negotiations into less frequent but larger commitment. In another sense, you are delegating the frequent transactional negotiations to your employer who obtains funds and work scope obligations somehow. And in a third sense, you are decoupling the financial and scope negotiations if it is a larger organization where you may enjoy some job stability even while you argue about work scope with your direct management. Does any aspect of this resonates more with you? Maybe you've abandoned something you actually find valuable.

I think you misunderstand my position. I'm not saying twitter should be unmoderated, I'm responding to the question as to why free speech is important. I would say that the internet itself is a free speech platform, and that's a very good thing. I'm perfectly content to let people converse under whatever rules they choose as long as there is choice.

I will say in regard to twitter though that excessive policing of speech creates a segregation of audiences and consequently increases echo chambers, which is probably not what those speech police were trying to accomplish. I think it would be healthier for society if it were a little more tolerant, but that's not really related to my position on free speech.

I truly think computerized school communication is worse than notes in backpacks and the occasional mailed letter.

They send way too much useless shit, way too often, so you end up ignoring a lot of it; use way too many channels to do it; design sites poorly—how about the year's calendar on the first page for a given school, above "the fold", with a link to subscribe your preferred calendaring software to it, right there, office contact info off to the side, also above "the fold"? And no horrible excessively-complex half-broken themes making it difficult to navigate? Nah, that'd be too helpful; and everything's in several different systems, all bad, and all in various states of up-to-date or neglected, so it can be hard to guess where you need to look for something and hard to know whether it's accurate when you do find it (especially if the apparent signal is "empty" or "nothing there" or "no information"—is that true, or has it just not been updated lately?)

Absolute free speech platforms don't work for the majority of people because they have no way of constraining participants to the Overton Window.

It may be hard to understand for some, but there are topics that make people highly uncomfortable. These people prefer an environment that 'protects' them from fringe ideas.

The issue is, the 'Overton Enforcement' doesn't work when a large minority (say, 30% of users) has ideas considered highly controversial to the majority of users. Most people actually do want to live in a bubble most of the time so being exposed to these opinions undermines their sanity.

A 100% free speech platform could work fairly well though if it was sophisticated enough to understand what a user does and doesn't want to see and then only occasionally expose them to controversial content. Kind of like TikTok's 'for you' page but with less censorship. Or, perhaps, let users control their exposure directly. Twitter doesn't have the technical capability to pull this off though so they are stuck with occasionally infuriating large minorities of users.

Yeah that alias is a good one, here are some other avenues:

* The repo can add a `.ignore` or a `.rgignore` whitelisting things like `.github`. ripgrep will pick up that whitelist automatically and search `.github` even though it's hidden. But this relies on the repo adding ripgrep-specific config files, which is maybe not so realistic. (Or not universal enough to rely upon.) But it could work fine for repos under your control.

* Add '!.github/' to, e.g., `~/.config/ripgrep/ignore`, and then add `alias rg="--ignore-file ~/.config/ripgrep/ignore"`. That will become a global ignore file (with low precedent) that will whitelist `.github` everywhere.

I think that fly.io is still using firecracker for their microvm offering, although qemu has a similar machine type implemented.

Having worked on firecracker and with firecracker, it does a good job in the networking area.

Note that there's no multiqueue implementation available, so depending on how many connections and data you're passing through, it may start struggling if the workload is high.

I don't know the specifics of how DO sets up their VMs, but I assume that they're not doing any fancy networking optimizations, so you may end up with similar issues on both setups.

Yes, there were lots of 8-bitters that used bank switching. But I think you have the causality somewhat backwards. 8-bitters didn't lack memory protection because they didn't have operating systems that could use it; rather, their operating systems couldn't use it because it wasn't there. Multitasking was of course useful, then as now, and sometimes people did do multitasking on them despite the generally limited memory; it was just less reliable because programs could crash each other. Multitasking was common in real-time control, which is how THERAC-25 happened (on a non-8-bit machine, but due to a race condition between threads).

A common use for multitasking in the 8-bitter era was print spooling; it was very inconvenient to have to wait for your document to finish printing before you could continue editing! People frequently bought external hardware printer spooler boxes to connect between their computer and printer because of this. Similarly, duplicating floppies was pretty inconvenient because you couldn't do anything else while it was happening, even if you had four floppy drives like I did, with literal megabytes of storage space available to read porn or play video games while the floppies were copying.

Historically on larger machines it was also common to use multitasking to overlap very slow disk I/O with useful computation. (The alternative is to use asynchronous I/O and write your program as an event loop, like a game or Node.js, or to do your I/O from interrupts, which is close to multitasking.) In theory this could have been useful on 8-bit micros as well but I don't think I saw any cases of it actually happening.

> Germany isn't heating with electricity and their won't be, realistically, any rolling black-outs.

This would be the case during normal times. We're not in normal times though. There has been widespread panic buying of portable electric heaters all throughout summer. Owners of single-family homes are also increasingly switching to heat pumps as the main source of heating (as is strongly encouraged by the government).

If we actually run into a gas crunch this winter, blackouts could ironically be a knock-on effect if everyone turns on their electric heater at the same time.

If I have a $10bn debt due and $10bn of real estate, I’m illiquid. If I have a $10bn debt due and my real estate is worth $8bn, I’m insolvent. All evidence to date points to Tether being insolvent.
