> I'm a fan of getting rid of cars in downtown areas.

I have two questions:

Do emergency services count as cars?

Do people who have to take call to provide emergency medical care still get to use cars?

I suspect the layout of European farming communities is a holdover from feudalism, when serfs worked the land on behalf of the lord of the manor, who owned all the land.

They probably found conditions in the New World much more desirable, where they could own their own farm. And when they owned their own farm, they probably found it much more convenient to live close to the fields and barns and livestock that they also owned.
To all the experienced DVR users: does it have good native media management capabilities?

I’m an FCPX user and always felt that was a big black mark against FCPX. For instance, it seems designed to manage your media on a per-project basis, and can’t easily be shoehorned into having a single large (organised) library accessible from many loosely-coupled projects. Disconnected original media drives don’t have graceful failure states - even when using a local proxy workflow. Tagging, sorting and displaying large media libraries always feels quite cumbersome. That kind of thing.

Keen to hear whether DVR is more sensible - I’m quite keen to give it a go if so.
Well this is pretty simple: America doesn't do everything that people complain about China doing.
I mean compared to romania, particularly to poorly managed cities such as cluj napoca indeed barceona’s public transport is a blessing. But unfortunately locals dont commute to sagrada familia on a daily basis. Commuting to and from el prat or other office areas is a nightmare, as is reaching to smaller businesses around town. Pulling out stats without actually having been there is misleading as you risk thinking everyone is a tourist taking trains to attractions on the regular, which is what most public transport was designed for - its basically their economy so naturally it will be biased towards that.
You're not seriously going to both-sides the CIA and the CCP are you?
Sure, a couple points.

1. More than the US exists. Stripe has a headquarters in Ireland (which does have severance laws) and employees in many countries. And my point was general, not just pertaining to Stripe.

2. If (and I don't know the specifics) Stripe has made a contract that spells out particular severance policies, the employees are legally entitled to that. Contracts are legally binding.

3. The WARN Act requires notice in layoffs, but it's almost unheard of in tech companies to say "hey, we're going to lay you off in 60 days". People get permissions revoked and walked out the door. In those cases, severance is required. You can call it "penalties for non-compliance with the notice requirement" but if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, well, it's severance.
You can say precisely the same thing about iCloud and the FBI.

Nobody should be shocked that it's computationally possible for a tablet to run this software. The question is why would you opt for that?

This is on a tablet with no proper I/O, running an OS with no user-accessible file system. And, based on screen shots, this software presents essentially the same UI it does on the desktop... which is totally inappropriate (if not unusable) on a touchscreen with one's fingers.

So now we have something that is profoundly gimped by the hardware, for which you have to buy MORE hardware (a Pencil). But the Pencil is only supported by the most expensive iPads.

In the end, you're paying as much as (or more than) you would have for a MacBook Air; a real computer running a computer OS with proper I/O, keyboard, and high-quality video and audio output. It's only marginally bigger than an iPad Pro, and... get this... it has A HEADPHONE JACK, which the iPad Pro does not.

All of that makes the MacBook Air a far better portable solution for Resolve than a tablet will ever be.

I will never claim that the United States or its government is blameless, but this claim is so over-the-top I don't even know where to start.
The problem is the attitude and not the message. That's mostly the reason why you're getting downvoted. I myself don't agree with you but didn't downvote. Just a heads up.

>Am I missing something? Does the app really have enough redeeming features to warrant the risk of using it?

In my experience (sometimes depending on how it's stated but not always) people see these kinds of comments as a commentary on _them_ specifically. It often doesn't matter what your intention is, they just feel somewhat defensive/challenged, like you're accusing them of poor judgement. So they blow the comment off or even push back to make themselves feel better about their decision.

I understand this comment could be seen as pretentious but I sincerely understand why someone would feel defensive. It's very easy to see it as commentary on their judgment and values, especially in a country like the US that is so focused on being individualistic/protecting individual rights. Most people don't want to be accused of not caring about their privacy. It makes them feel shallow and talked down to, once again, regardless of intent.
The article links to a copy of the wording here: https://docs.reclaimthenet.org/public_daily_rep_1018.pdf

It appears as though it allows the government to bring a civil case, which may result in an injunction and then enforcement. If I've read it correctly, they can't do anything without first going to court.
RoP has some of the worst writing I’ve ever seen. It’s on par with a a straight to VHS or a made for TV movie, at best.

> CCP can’t do that.

They can they just don’t need to. They can just disappear you. There’s documented evidence of the Chinese gov torturing, defiling, political dissidents but you’re worried about parallel construction from the NSA.

As a reminder, for parallel construction to work you need to have actually done something illegal, which the NSA then backtracks to build a case against you. For the Chinese gov to throw you into an unmarked van and press you into slave labor all they need is to tell someone to do it.

These aren’t even close to the same.
Interesting. That's gotta be a new thing right? I think before there was a separation between sites and forbes proper. Do they intend to imply they stand behind everything, or behind nothing?
I'm afraid I don't have a great answer. Right now I'm using LXQt with Kwin as my window manager; LXQt replaces Plasma and solves a lot of my problems with KDE, but isn't as slick as Plasma when Plasma is working. I replaced Dolphin with PCManFM, which isn't quite as slick either but it's adequate and seems to reliably watch directories for updates. I've stuck with some KDE applications, like Okular which has never disappointed me.
>Frankly I would much rather that all my private data/whatever go to the hands of the NSA and/or CSE, GCHQ than the Ministry of State Security in Beijing.

First, please do not read anything that follows as me accepting TikTok in any way, shape, or fashion.

As a non-Chinese citizen, what exactly can the MSS do to you with all of that data? I would be much more concerned with the gov't that had authority over me having that data. I'm guessing a Chinese citizen doesn't care one wit about what the NSA/GCHQ/etc knows about them either.

More enforcement will force businesses to remove obnoxious consent flows as those are already in breach of the regulation and it just needs enforcement. Consent should be explicitly opt-in, you can't force it with annoyances, dark patterns or denying the service.

Some shitty businesses who outright can't be profitable without stalking will fold which is a good thing (less spyware in the world), most will adapt just fine - executives/shareholders may just have to forego that new yacht or supercar.

> A poorly written law, apparently designed to introduce additional friction into simple web browsing

It's not poorly written. It's written very well to explicitly outlaw the kind of malicious pseudo-compliance you're complaining about. Its objective is not to introduce friction, it's to outlaw spyware (which we've somehow normalized over the past decade).

> with porous and easily-evaded definitions and vague goals

The goals are not porous - in fact the law is intentionally broad enough so that the spirit of any data collection/processing can be taken into account, rather than a specific technicality (which is why focusing on cookies is stupid because GDPR doesn't care whether you do your tracking with cookies, IP addresses or the shipping/billing address your customer provides). The goal of the law is again to outlaw the business model of spyware.

No I actually think the CCP is a lot less harmful than the CIA. So many people died because of American imperialism, it's not even funny.

Most countries in the Latin America have seen democratic governments being overthrown by coupes backed by the US with CIA help. The CCP doesn't do this.
I played this recently. Its amazing what a rush of nostalgia i got, and how well the game holds up.
Except China bans Instagram, Facebook, etc providers inside of China.

So they ban our social media sites inside of their country, yet we don't ban theirs inside of our country. Why do you think that is?
Issue tho is that barcelona has plenty of satellite towns and villages, so your comment proves my point. What i want is an actual solution that takes people out of their cars in a meaningful way, not just hippies that have no other choice due to poverty. Proper public transport is in everyone’s interest.
Fair point.

From El Prat to where, do you think would be a fair analysis?
There’s lots of interesting grifts out there in LinkedIn.

We busted one guy who claimed to work somewhere 20 years ago that a colleague and I worked at. We thought he was a a former colleague - basically there was a guy named “John Smith” that was this guy. It was too long ago to disqualify the guy, so we validated his LinkedIn history items carefully and they were mostly bogus.

Everything looked legit in the surface. It was like a spy movie or something.
You aren’t wrong, but the two situations aren’t equivalent. The stakes are high when we are talking about a foreign government that isn’t shy about its desire to undermine the United States and its willingness to use everything at its disposal to do so. The FBI, in theory at least, has different motivations, is subject to US law, and can be held accountable.
Long time family premium subscriber. Of course not stoked about this, but I'm not going to force adds on my kids.
> Does the equity come with voting rights?

It does in my case.

I started out as a junior developer. I am now in the C-suite.

Equity is also not a replacement for salary, which we clearly just take for granted these days.

Taking an adversarial stance in business is the fastest way to wind up nowhere. Being able to "fire the c-suite" is not a good thing. If you have to do that, you likely don't have a viable business in the first place.
How does a 75% workforce cut even work logistically for a company not on its deathbed?
I doesn't actually have to be an either-or.

I have pipes that are pretty loud above ~4000 RPM, but pretty quiet underneath that. When I'm in a residential neighborhood I keep the revs low and shift early (it's less aggressive anyway, which is what you want if a kid or a dog could dart out in front of you). On the freeway and when nobody is around me I also keep it under 4000 RPM. But when I start feeling boxed in or I'm lane splitting I'll drop it down a gear to bump the volume of the pipes. You can see people recognize you're there, and that's the goal.

But yeah, those guys who blare their exhaust on bikes or cars are a-holes.
Exactly my point. I should not require current access to a work email account just to update my CV to show that I worked somewhere. Or for how long I worked there (like that suggestion to "re-verify" periodically).

I don't update my LinkedIn right away for example when I change jobs. I usually wait about a year until I put the new employer. Why would I accept getting forced, as one of the first actions at my new employer, to list where I work?
Maybe have a look at the “Brussel effect” wiki page. The EU is big enough to make worldwide changes financially the rational choice, so these choices are made based on EU laws.

TikTok isn't about movies, it's about short videos pulling in your attention. They aim for the mobile phone.

Also if a video is showing a single person (standup comedy?) vertical can show them closer, as people (mostly) are vertical.

But yes, for a full movie, where you have horizontal camera movement, a vertical screen gives too little orientation for following the movement.

In painting and photography horizontal and vertical coexist for millenia. Based on the motive and purpose.
"From full stack engineering to DevOps practitioner, our industry loves to pretend everyone can do everything."

To me, this gets to the heart of the matter. As example, I present the required skillset for a front-end engineer:

https://frontendmasters.com/guides/front-end-handbook/2018/

See the index on the left. Do you need to know everything about all of these things for every single project? No. But as you grow into a senior, you'll be touching almost everything in that list.

It's an absolute explosion in complexity. Web development once was barely considered engineering, now it's one of the most complicated roles in the industry. Consider also that almost everything on that list is constantly evolving, this list being 4 years old.

Has all this added cognitive load and complexity resulted in massive productivity wins and dramatically better outcomes (UX, quality)? I'd say no, or at least it's questionable.

My point being is that this is already too much. I work in teams with a distribution like this: senior (20%), medior (50%), junior (30%). So the vast majority of them are median. And the median programmer is severely lacking against our ever growing demands. It's crude, but the typical programmer really sucks at programming.

So if next you're going to add even more to this pile with all sorts of devops and funky cloud tooling, the issue becomes clear: we're over-asking.

We over-value flexibility and scaling but ignore its dramatic costs.

"Devops" is just a made up word.

Facts != propaganda. I'm not even going to bother giving you detailed examples. Xi is a bad person and has done a lot of bad things over the past decade.

Are you suggesting that it is a wise idea for a country to cease espionage? Wouldn't that just severely disadvantage that country and only benefit protentional enemy nations? Makes me think "Everyone else is cheating on the test and it will be graded on a curve, but I refuse to cheat" at which point you fail the test. Only the test in this case has an extremely high cost if failed.
Why can’t they? Sure, they can’t just call up the FBI or other US law enforcement agencies and refer the matter.

However, they can absolutely use the threat of disclosure of sensitive information to blackmail or otherwise coerce someone. The threat (real or perceived) many times is worse than the reality.

I’d say they each have the capability to cause harm, but the incentives/motivations/safeguards that might drive (or inhibit) them to do so are drastically different.
