Pirates don't care about codec licences the same way they don't care about the copyright of the content they pirate. Therefore they will always pick the codec which is easiest to target, has hardware for encoding and decoding readily available. Most either watch content on PCs, smart TVs, nvidia shield / firestick and almost none of those have av1 hardware support (maybe PCs but only recently).
> do they have a color palette they hold up to your face and say “nope, sorry you’re too light to be black, or is there a generic test they force you to perform?

It’s more of a sniff test that is only performed at elite schools or for privileged positions (affirmative action and/or scholarships).

I knew a woman who identified as black who was lily-white. It turns out her grandfather (in the south was black), and the locally scandalous out-of-wedlock interracial relationship that produced one of her parents was a big part of her identity and influenced what she studied. She ended up at an elite school.

On the other hand, if someone puts a race on the application that doesn’t really match how they look and doesn’t have much in the way of explanation in their application, then I think that interviewers at elite schools would (at a minimum) be curious. This is especially true if the race selected would likely get them some sort of preferred admissions status.

With regards to Asians in particular, many (most?) Asians can reasonably put down multi-racial since there has been much racial mixing within Asian over the past few millennia. Whether that jibes in a US elite college application is a different issue.

At most schools, unless race confers someone a special status like affirmative action or scholarship eligibility, then no one cares. If someone got in specifically due to an inaccurate claim, then they run the risk of being expelled or even having their degree revoked for unethical behavior.

Not how it actually works out in my experience. Maybe if I'd been more persistent I'd've got some more money back, but it sounds like the person in the article was also offered more money once they were more persistent, so that doesn't seem like a clear win for direct booking.
Emergent property through evolutionary selection, do you not believe in evolution?

If the brain is just processing things in complete chaos an animal would be completely useless, but with a part/thread dedicated to processing inputs and checking memory I think it is very obvious this function of consciousness would emerge through natural evolution.
I guess in a way it goes to show that movements like Occupy Wallstreets only represented a small percentage of progressives that were more likely to vote for Bernie, and some went the direction the DNC told people to when it essentially colluded to steal the nomination and others left and went true independent.

Good companies that want your money have avenues, and yeah it may take a bit of extra paperwork but that's just fine. Look at Replit raising via WeFunder.
I agree based on the good reporting that everyone is at fault here, but for gods sake Booking.com learn to react in situations like this by just getting the person a room and eat the costs and you will earn double that in more people using your service in the future. I imagine that Booking.com and related sites mostly exists due to their business partnerships where they handle bookings for employees for business travel, and that their consumer business is just a side business where they don't give a shit if people are left stranded in the middle of nowhere. If the hotel is accepting reservations, but not actually in regular communication with Booking.com or weekly checking boxes that they are still accepting reservations then that is on Booking.com for not doing any diligence and I believe they are guilty of negligence if something more serious did happen.
Nice work! Steganography is always one of the topics I introduce at the end of CS1, since they've learned all the bits and pieces on how to do it. Its fun to watch their minds get blown over something like this and go "you can DO that?!"
I’ve been wondering about this myself. If you work in publicco tech, all their grants are priced in dollar equiv. So as you say, bouncing jobs right now should give you a ~50% equity boost, if you’re on a 4 year today at your current co. Surely though this is obvious & companies are doing top ups?
Or, since they’re all entering hiring freezes / layoffs maybe they don’t can and want the attrition

Is it not possible to dispute and chargeback via credit card provider? My strategy of giving three attempts to get a refund as per their procedures, then warning about dispute, then eventually issuing a chargeback worked quite fine so far across multiple vendors. It rarely goes as far as the actual chargeback, typically the warning is sufficient.
> Post-COVID, hotel booking terms are actually really generous, at least in my experience.

Maybe, if you can actually find them. Booking.com tells me right there on the booking page when I can cancel for free until, and how much a cancellation will cost after that.
The body should take instructions tough. Reacting quickly to somebody's else actions (a ping pong match, a very contested overtake in motorsport) can be totally unconscious but we must have consciously decided at least the general way of performing those activities: the guy on the car ahead suddenly steers left so I'm feinting right than go left again. Or fencing, or riding a horse in a race. Training could prepare the body to handle any action on autopilot but consciousness has a short leash on it.
I'm seen this too, and it's bizarre that adding a middleman actually is cheaper.
Just like credit reports, this also inverts the responsibility - you are responsible to get your information delisted as opposed to giving your explicit OK for it to be listed or appear in a search engine. It never ceases to amaze me, how if a bank lends to someone who pretends to be me, why is that my problem and why should my good name and reputation be soiled. Putting that onus on the defrauded consumer is really overlooking the fact that the bank or lender didn't do enough due diligence.

I followed The Walking Dead before I read about Trump asking a US general : 'What's the point of having nuke if we don't use them ?'... That was for its campain in 2015...

It got me hooked forever... Let me get this strait : the least moronic, mean, corrupt republicain is 10 times more dangerous then a whole army of zombies.

A guy in a wheelchair could survive an apocalipse zombiy because they're so slow that even him could 'ride away' from them. But if republicans win a majority in congress by 1 single vote from a republican voter, they will gut his wheelchair benefit because, you know, 'socialism'.

A kid can survive a zombie apocalypse... There is a video game which proves it (by the now defunct Telltale Studio). But if he steals a can of beans, a republican judge paid by the owner of a prison for kids will send him there for 2 years and he will hang himself 2 months after he gets out.

Not a single republican voted for the 'inflation act' which enacted the first legal framework to fight the climate change. And a republican majority led SCOTUS declared unconstitutional obligations for energy producers to reduce their carbon footprint. But the whole population of zombies in the world are carbon neutral.

If Alex Jones had to fight an army of zombies, he would call them 'crisis actors' and send his followers to hunt them from east coast to west coast.

Republican knows no bottom, and when they reach it, they dig.

This. Fedora is rapidly turning into what Ubuntu should have been, and is retaking its spot that Ubuntu took shortly after it came around. Ubuntu is turning into a legacy desktop, centered around tailoring Gnome to a Unity-esque desktop every release rather than embracing progress.

When Ubuntu 22.04 was released, I switched to Fedora for good. They get a GNOME distro right.

Thats not how one usually work. Whats the point in running tsc (the official transpiler) on each save? Plus, you are using an LSP client right? right??

Im a user of esbuild, and its so fast it can recompile on each save (see esbuild `serve` option) and i wont notice anything locally. Theres also a watch mode, and production build with minify.

So i work locally without a typecheck for my builds, and let my LSP client do the type checking. When i bundle for prod i run an additional tsc for type checks before the bundle is produced. Takes a few secs more (as tsc is slow) but this is a nonissue.
The implication of a DAO and Crypto involvement has stirred attention in the comments. I have 2¢ on the matter. First, I don't think we've seen many examples like this in open-source communities. For that reason alone, regardless of the idea's merit, I welcome it; if it is to fail, let us see it, that we may have a case study in the future. Worst case, there is wide support for a fork, and I don't see that becoming any more unreasonable over the next decade. Secondly, just as a brain-storming idea, what if we had like the blockchain and stuff but the rewards weren't pure value (ie. contextual value, one man's treasure; titles, hats, cosmetics, merch vs purchasing power and/or influence)?

No it doesn't.
Caveat: when booking directly you still need to confirm your reservation by phone.

I have twice had Wyndham hotels book for earlier dates than what I had input on their website when making the reservation. (After it happened the first time, I triple-checked the input fields, and it happened again.)

It appears that this hotel chain has a glitchy website. Traveller beware.

Why people are flocking to a symbol of Taiwan’s authoritarian past
For what it's worth, I don't use Twitter.

My comments above are based on my experience writing, reading, responding to, and otherwise interacting with and observing longer toot threads ("tootstorms" on Mastodon, comparable to "tweetstorms" on Twitter).

And are compared with experiences on numerous other platforms and systems, ranging from Usenet to HN, and in particular including Reddit, G+, Diaspora*, and Mastodon.

Mastodon is a rough Twitter analogue. It tends to give a broader exposure than forum-based or friend-based (e.g., Google+, specific subreddits) forums. And again, in particular what I observe is people responding to specific toots within a longer stream in a way that's simply not evident in other formats. It's not an unallowed good. It is a notable characteristic of the format, however.

Some examples are hashtagged through my profile (though this link doesn't seem to be working at the moment): <https://toot.cat/@dredmorbius/tagged/tootstorm>

I'll say I appreciate you taking the time to get me to understand your situation a bit. To clarify, 5 years ago, it was much easier to get a developer job with less experience and less knowledge. Now there is a much higher bar, even though a year ago, there was a high demand for developers, BUT the bar is now raised. A lot of this is because of the emergence of coding bootcamps and the popularity of software development careers in general.

So again, there is unfortunately much more competition and much more to learn and apply to have a stable career in tech.
As for what to practice and learn, I would start off with what you learned from your actual interviews you've had over the past few years. Remember what questions they asked you, and the ones you couldn't answer well. Find out those answers and truly understand why the interviewer even asked you those questions in the first place.

Remember that the job of an interview is to tell that a company is hiring a COMPETENT person who they perceive can do the job. When you can't answer people's questions, they don't perceive you as competent or a good candidate and will find someone else. Your job is to learn how to be competent, to answer common interview questions (basic programming, fizzbuzz, system design, data strcutures and algorithms, etc). You need to be coding more, like literally everyday. There are many coding practice coding sites where they will give you some typical coding problem and you can practice to implement them. Then you can go online to reddit or what not and ask people to review your code. This feedback loop will help you improve and further your chances of not only being a good developer, but ultimately getting a job.
Same here. I got dead tired and fatigued of all the JS ecosystem bundles and over engineered solutions. Today i mainly use a Makefile and esbuild. No config files at all! It has been a blessing!

What does "over represented" mean?
Presuming that the subconscious isn’t all there is and the “conscious” mind isn’t just an illusion created by all the subconscious processes.

It's true that Linux does this, although my impression is that FreeBSD and Solaris have comparatively stable ABIs. I think they usually keep the kernel ABI stable between minor patches, and change it with major releases. I've never futzed about with e.g. nvidia drivers on FBSD or Solaris, so I dunno.

Anyway, it was definitely just a weird mistake, I'm more intrigued about how varied the Illumos branches/distros are, since I had thought they were mostly just different userlands/package managers, when they seem to have different kernel patch sets and bugfixes...
I hold zero crypto, but by reading of the DAO is that it is one of the ways mentioned of trying to benefit the community or perhaps it will be used for community governance (elsewhere in the post it mentions hiring maintainers, and also creating bounties to fund development), not a way of creating some crypto coin to sell.
This. esbuild has been amazing. Can never work without it. The only thing missing is a "vendor" kind of bundle. I wish i could specify dependencies and own code in two separate bindles. As the other wont change much, and could be cached.

Not only that, hotels.com often has rooms when the hotel is “fully booked.” Twice last month in London, I wanted to extend my stay. The staff said the hotel was full. I went online and booked. Then asked them to keep me in the same room. I think it’s because they reserve a block for online sales.

No, it's meant for taking something like a CSV file and deciding if each row matches a specific category. A common example, have a CSV, columns corresponding to different features of flowers (e.g. number of petals, size of petals) and the output is the type of flower.

Many of the gray projects listed never even specify the minor number. Looking at setuptools, they only list Python :: 3.

If you go back to https://pyreadiness.org/3.8/ there are 20% of packages not explicitly supported, many from the top 100 list, anyone using these packages know this is not a concern. (Going back even further in versions you start to see dropped support instead)

Deducting these 20% should give a more accurate picture, and even then I’d bet most other packages work anyway, like you say.
Author here. This was a fun project -- thanks for posting it!

I'm particularly interested in thoughts on a process I created called ["Schlinkert pruning"](https://sts10.github.io/2022/08/12/efficiently-pruning-until...).
The first version was dropped, because almost no one used (hardly any complaints regarding it being dropped), and they were parallel codebases somehow.

I would guess they see this a way to actually trigger adoption of GraalVM CE, beyond the language nerds, a couple of more adventurous companies and also it is a safer way for other JVM vendors to enter the game.
> This is the first I’ve heard of exhaust scrubbers! I thought we were talking about the literal impact of burning plastic?

We were never talking about just burning plastic. We were talking about burning plastic inside a heat/power plant.

And power plants, especially trash-fueled ones, have exhaust scrubbers. I only mentioned it now for emphasis, not because I was changing anything.

The first comment you replied to specified "industrial incinerator" for a reason.

> How does burning plastic impact things for people that don’t own exhaust scrubbers?

I don't care how it affects those people, because they're burning it outside a power plant, and they're not part of this conversation. If they burn it it's worse than if they bury it, but they shouldn't be doing either one. They should be handing the trash over to people that are equipped to handle it properly.

>a government order must also avoid being arbitrary or capricious

There were two separate orders. The first was for public employees, and the second was for private employees. I agree that the second was capricious, but the first was consistent. The city is allowed to fire city employees. Maybe something about it is unconstitutional, but the ruling completely handwaves this, as well as the justification for backpay.
I recompile on every save too, all with full typechecking in under a second. As I've suspected, this is probably because most people here work in bigcorp projects where there are so many thousands of files that you cant work like this anymore. It's not because it's actually better workflow wise, it's only better for you now because otherwise the compilation is too slow. Same as the situation that has developed with Rust.
Presumably heif and/or hevc had an advantage when Apple adopted them as the default formats. Given they’re primarily on mobile devices it’s reasonable to assume there is hardware support. So switching to something else means battery life impact on everything else.

What you are saying, is that because Google didn’t support a standard format that has been around, and in wide spread use, for years Apple should make all of its devices worse.

Which is BS.
not about the hotels, but a correction on the jfk.

it's not one "of the busiest airport in the country". I can confirm that it's malebolge, the VIII circle of hell.

I had my share of trips in my life: european countries, uae, Japan...

But I never experienced anything remotely comparable.

All the times I went there the flights were 3-4 hours late.

One time I was in a plane that was taxing through the Airport for one hour just to wait for a free line to depart.

The lines at the immigrations entrance started from the plane itself!

And there was one time where, after waiting for the gate to open, already a couple hours late, the captain said that someone stole the airplane!!
