"Fully reusable" in all uses I've seen of with respect to aerospace it seems pretty fixed to me. We don't talk about "fully reusable" cars because there isn't an example of a non-reusable car. The "fully" part doesn't refer to how many times it lasts, just that the vehicle is reusable in whole instead of in part. "Wholly reusable" might have been a more semantically correct term, but "fully reusable" is what has stuck.
I'd imagine (and heard) that characture of a prepper exists in other areas too.
… just don’t then try to make money off it.

There’s too much crap when I search for actual high quality content due to SEO and stuff.

(I’m not saying don’t blog. Definitely, it’s as useful as described in this post, and we’re not running out of storage space.)
Banning smartphones is a very short sighted decision. Society is moving towards integrating more technology in everyday usage. Banning smartphones will promote technology illiteracy.

The average speed of the available internet has increased exponentially since 1998. On dialup and even dsl, a 480p video is a struggle if possible at all, but
over covid it became mandatory for home internet to support 3+ simultaneous video calls every single day, with some 4k Netflix/Youtube streams during lunch or for background music. My sister actually had to do a video call demonstrating a golf swing from her phone for online gym class. In 1998 99% of consumer internet speeds were too slow to stream an audio file in high quality without buffering.

Many middle and high schools have started using fleets of Chromebook for things like google classroom, textbooks, and submitting daily homework. Using computers isn't a special event that requires a class visit the computer lab. Everyone has adapted to these new trends for communication. It's fine to feel nostalgic and appreciate certain benefits in how things were in the past, but it doesn't make sense to apply the standards of 1998 to today's classrooms.
All those people that retired with their nice homes because of historically high asset prices that lost close to 50% of their net worth in the past year or two might need to consider downsizing. Especially once property taxes on their newly inflated home values kick in.
LoL, why does it have a chain and is missing a basket?
Sounds like David Sacks will rundown twitter just like he did with Zenefits.

Very few seem to have noticed that Parker Conrad built Rippling after Zenefits and David Sacks ran Zenefits to literally nothing (Valued less than what they raised even in 2021).

Rippling: valued at 11B (Raised 700M)

Zenefits: valued at 200M (Raised 600M).

Edit: Added numbers. Grammer.
No equivalence. Pretty much any pro-quality electric guitar made in the last 70 years could be used in place of any other pro-quality guitar. Old ones are often even better than new ones, and most well-made guitars age like fine wine.

The same is not true with computers. You and I have almost zero chance getting a good job by programming on an artisan or otherwise Apple ][ or TRS-80.
They aren't getting involved in an industry. When they do, it is to build public schools, which seems to be a great idea. What they are doing is submitting to public demand that education be accessible to everyone by paying for it, or by lending people the money for it. It is like saying that food stamps are 'government getting involved in the grocery industry'. If one counts subsidies, then the government is involved in most industries in some way.

I think that by looking for an excuse as to why the government messes up everything and using that as a way to remove government from things, you haven't changed the need for that thing, you just make it so that in order to fill a public need the government has to enable it in some way that is probably less efficient -- like giving out lots of loans for education, or by having people forgo basic care and then ending up in the hospital with a huge bill that the government pays for because they cannot.

There is usually a medium between these things and it would be great to get off of our collective ideological horses and find them instead of blasting rhetoric at each other.
"Much" is kind of meaningless here. If you increase your BMR by 100 calories a day that's huge because losses or gains are made at the margins.

My main point is that you need something that's not optional. If you cycle to work once a week that might be a 300 calorie deficit and it's not some sort of task you can "fall behind on", it's an integrated part of your routine now that you'd have to deliberately not do.

The specific example doesn't really matter, more just that it's not some fad "I'll make myself suffer at the weekend on the treadmill" or whatever.
A thousand small changes add up, however. Also, don't forget how those companies responsible for all those emissions make stuff that we eagerly buy up. The emissions are "their", but really on our behalf.

And I'm well aware of the hypocrisy in me typing this on a plastic keyboard in a plastic office chair wearing synthetic clothing. I could have carved keycaps out of wood and made a typing device with an Arduino, sourced sustainable wood for a chair and bought "green" cotton clothing. I didn't, because plastic is cheaper and more convenient. But I'm not blaming Logitech for making the products I'm happy to buy.
take that entire thread of his with a MOUNTAIN of salt, i certainly wouldn't be quoting it as proof in relation to twitter actions.

Inventory is already well on its way back to 2020 levels, and is exceeding 2019 levels in some areas. The "shortage" was caused by demand from extremely low interest rates, now that demand has died...the shortage is over. Not to mention, as we head into this recession and life/layoffs continue, people will be forced to sell if they can no longer cover their mortgage.

To be honest, I’m not an expert, and you’d just be getting a lay opinion. They say human vision can discern about 60 pixels per degree. I believe Quest Pro achieves about 20, and Project Cambria might push 30.

That sounds simple, but water rights, especially in the West can back further than it’s incorporation into the US.

In the treaty that ended the Mexican American war, the US agreed to respect all Mexican land grants. Those grants are still enforced by US law.

Of course with eminent domain the government might be able to seize water rights (i don’t know) but owners would need to be paid a fair cost for the loss of those rights.
I don't know many preppers, but it seems the shows and articles I've seen showed that preppers know they need a community. It seems that this thread is mostly discussing a characture.
I mean, bestbuy has had plenty in stock around here so demand I’d say hasn’t been all that high. I thought about upgrading from the 13 pro before realizing how dumb that’d be.
I hate this phrase and I'm not sure why it's getting so much more popular. It's just pithy because it concerns an unliked figure, a devil. We could easily say instead "looking at the other side of the coin" but no one would then say "the coin doesn't need more sides" because that wouldn't make any more sense.
You are mixing authenticity and uniqueness. The stuff you blog about doesn't need to be unique; it only needs to be authentic.
Why is it okay to weight deaths by whether people engage in an activity at all, but not by how often they engage in that activity?
Oops, you are quite right!

I do override it, for more than ten years. That's what I get for posting without sanity checking myself.
I don't agree with this. It's well known the big publisher model is trying to predict the market based on an imperfect set of numbers of past sales. Debuts are calculated in their worth by what comparative titles they might sell as much as (in comparison: look at the tags #sffpit, #pitmad, etc. on twitter. See how authors are going <TITLE> X <TITLE>? This is authors trying to show that their work is comparable to these other profitable titles in an effort to imply this book will make just as much money.).

Once you publish a debut, how much you sell of it will directly correlate with how much you're offered in your next work. It doesn't matter if the publishing company is intentionally underfunding your launch and doesn't put resources to push your book; if you flop they offer less advances. They are more than happy to let go of work if it doesn't sell enough; its common for mid-trilogies to be cut at book 2 if book 1 doesn't sell enough and then the writer is forced to figure out what to do with a trilogy that's been abandoned by the publisher. [Additionally its common for authors to be cut after their first trilogy: look at what happened to K.S. Villoso, whose first trilogy was launched during COVID and she was cut anyways, even though a kickstarter for her next book was kickstarted for over 20,000CAD including hardcover, softcover, and audiobook productions. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ksvilloso/audiobook-for... ]
Yes absolutely! I just swallow watermelon seeds. In a slice of seeded watermelon they're not bothersome texture wise (to me), have a mild flavor, and contain good protein. It doesn't feel worth the effort to separate them in my mouth and spit them out.

I haven't encountered a grape with seeds in years, and I don't eat apple seeds because they are slightly bitter and contain amygdalin.
I can't edit or delete the above post so please disregard it. It is incorrect.
It's completely valid. Musk is allowed to be a hypocrite when it comes to his company. Anybody who doesn't like it can simply leave.
One factor not talked about enough is the bullying. Twitter is notorious for clowning on certain things deemed lame. One example are twitter users coming together to clown users who have NFT as their profiles.

I suspect the same to happen for people who obviously are not famous enough to have pre-bought check marks.
It's almost certainly the difference between high school gamers remembering the sports games and elementary/middle school gamers remembering sonic. Mortal Kombat straddles the line between.

Well I am not in the USA but in Eastern Europe. The "money for existing" here would barely cover 2 visits to the grocery store. :D

> I guess I'm going to have to start a new company to get more out of my own efforts

Same conclusion here, being loyal to companies has gotten me nowhere. I know people for whom it worked but they are not the majority (of my acquaintances at least).

> Sure beats the boredom so many senior citizens get even if they have overflowing retirement funds.

I'll never be bored. I have things that I wanted to work on ever since I was 16 year old and now at 42 I still haven't taken the time and energy to do them -- I really can't find proper time and when I finally do I am exhausted (but I am working on the health as well which should give me much more bandwidth).

If I can be granted a wish it'd be "please let me be as rich as I need to be and please let me be dying of boredom, I'll handle it!".

Sympathies for your situation. It's a sad fact that when we get drained of our energy and motivation we actually have to muster even more of them so we can pull through by inventing our own income / business. It's a very bitter irony, one I have grown to gradually accept and not rebel against.

Lets look at stock market returns from when Obamacare passed, March-2010, to today for tech and health insurance stocks:

SPY: about 4X

QQQ: about 6X

GOOGL: about 6X

CI: about 9X (Cigna health)

ELV: about 10x (formerly Anthem)

AAPL: about 19X

UNH: about 20X (united healthcare)

Health Insurance stocks in the US did better than tech stocks after Obamacare passed. Why?
I recently created a static site at a zone apex without Route53. Everything else just works, well, as you illustrate.

> Play with CloudFormation for 2 days writing oodles of mind numbing YAML and realise that you have to create the ACM cert and CF distribution in a different region to your bucket but that's impossible.

The discrepancies in cross-region support specifically with ACM drives me nuts.

I noped away from Terraform back in 2019. At the time, the state management component was too immature, and it was a little.. lose with credential security.

You may like Ansible far more if you’d like something a bit more declarative, readable, and with “batteries included.” I have a close friend who is an EE and he finds tools like Ansible much more intuitive and enjoyable than Terraform and CloudFormation.

Every tool has its master.
That this is being supressed is a bold assertion. Doesn't this seem like an odd, arbitrary thing to suppress? In situations like these, it's been my experience that the more likely explanation is that the evidence for it is a lot more spotty than you and the authors of the articles you linked seem to think.
If this is "not a traffic camera problem" because traffic cameras wouldn't necessarily cause it in an ideal world, then most if not all of the car crashes this article is talking about are "not a car problem" because cars wouldn't necessarily cause them in an ideal world either.
What do you think the difference in premiums are between a 20 year old and a 35 year old?

What about between 35 and 50?

I mean I know only two interesting facts about you, the difference in time, and I already know a common sense reason why your price today is much higher than it would be when you were 15 years younger, in “literally” any time in history, and perhaps it was always about 3x more expensive premiums.
And this decision gave them the US mobile market (very profitable) but basically lost them the messaging and ancillary commercial services enabled by messaging market in the rest of the world.

But this individual does not have control over any number of people, only their own vote. And the effect of a single vote is provably negligible in almost every election in history. So lecturing them about what a group can accomplish with cooperative action is pointless, and assigning "group blame" to them seems unethical to me. The tragedy of the commons for a large number of people often leaves us with no one to assign a significant amount of blame. This is just a sad fact.

These discussions are so strange for people in third world countries. We're tired of all this fake outrage.
It's not just about the depth (of which the Chinese has plenty) but also scale, cost of transport of inputs (which are all either made in Shenzhen already or available in quantity and stocked close by) access to skilled labor in the quantities needed, services to handle any layer of the chain at arms reach - need a board respun because components have dried up? Sure you can get guys in the US to do it but your board or assembly partner in Shenzhen can also just get it handled for you, pay the right amount of money and it can be done essentially tomorrow. There is also proximity to packaging and larger manufacturing, want to get a custom injection molded case or even some fancy CNC milled one? Yeah you can get that too, probably within 30-40mins by truck of where your boards are being made and your final assembly partner also.

I guess what I am getting at is that it's the only place on earth with such centralized infrastructure for making nearly anything, nothing is hard, nothing is far away, nothing is "not stocked here", it just makes for a much more convenient way to build products.

My experience "being there" was that I don't think you can replicate it easily. It has its own vibe, culture and way of Just Getting Shit Done that just feels unique.
California is unusually restrictive compared to the rest of the country.
It always takes years to properly evaluate how well a company/manager is performing, and the right course of action at any moment in time is never obvious, not even to the people on the inside making the decisions, let alone outside observers. If the "right thing to do" was obvious, then every sideline observer could just go ahead and start a company doing all the "obvious" things and be wildly successful. Obviously this isn't the case.

I'm content to reserve judgement and see what happens over the long term. Others are completely free to judge based on day-to-day drama, of course. But for their own sake I hope they keep a note of their assessments and predictions now, and check back in a few years to see how well they did.
Legit. You can do nicer than that in Helix’s defaults, but you're right that it won't match d-8-up’s concision: instead of 8-up-9-x-d ("8-move up-9-select whole lines below-delete"), you can do v-9-up-x-d, ("select-9-this line and above-the whole lines-delete").

If you're asking about what helix can do in general, though, as opposed to just the defaults, you can configure it to:

- use relative line numbering
- map a key (say, capital X) to the opposite of x’s behavior — or even better, to `[“extend_line_up”, “extend_to_line_bounds”]` ; the latter won't "eat" the first press by using it to select the current line.
- make the same tweak to lowercase x

Combined, that will get you back to 8-X-d (“8-select whole lines up from here-delete”) to delete up through where you can see 8 in the gutter (and 8-x-d in the other direction).
Cash buyers are -not- complete idiots, but there was (and still is) some portion of people who think that prices will at best plateau, and thus it's better to 'get in' early still.

Around here it has cooled down but the market is still... volatile. Ironically I may or may not be 'up' in value compared to the start of this year. But my state has various taxes and insurance costs that have impacts on relative home value.

People don’t have the energy to spend time with people because everyone is guarded now. Back in the day everyone usually knew the worst parts/weaknesses/fears of everyone else you spent time with. This made spending time with those people very comfortable.

At least he didn't, or hasn't jacked up the rates to double digits like in the 80's yet. Maybe they acted later than they should have, time will tell.
This is a misconception.

In western Europe and Asia all college education is more rigorous than American college.

And yet I don’t have the overall impression that the international bachelor’s people I know got something correlated out of the difference in rigor. It would be as obvious as the difference in rigor itself. It’s not.
> neither precious nor rare

The fact that most people can name the most famous schools seems to imply they are rare.

They are perceived as having better outcomes than regular state schools. Do they or dont they? If their grads do get better jobs and end up more successful - then they are genuinely better? People from state Universities end up sitting next to Ivys etc there is no difference - this is what I believe. We'll see if everyone else's perceptions change in the future as well.
50cc scooters/bikes typically can go around 30-60mph (50-100kmph), so that comparison feels a bit unfair.
The Pro and regular iPhone 14s and MacBooks are all built in different factories.
The accrediting system is a cartel of sorts. It keeps supply low by keeping competition low. It’s not a perfect cartel but none of our modern ones are. They just seem to capture large chunks of the market enough so that most people are forced to work with em.
I understand your decision. But still switching from one proprietary OS to another does not help in long run. There's no guarantee that Apple will not become another adtech company. Linux seems to be the long term fix for all of us.
Are you logging in with an Administrator credentialed account _in_ the Organization master account?

Did you give your boss a Billing role in IAM, within the Organization master account?

If so, search for the “Billing” service and Payment Methods will be on the side.

If in doubt, use the root account, but do so only sparingly. You can use it to debug admin and billing permissions.
It’s basically the same idea as natural gas. Pressure is higher and you need to be more careful with material compatibility. But otherwise everything is the same in principle.

Ultimately, it’s pretty laughable to think that a society capable of making modern semiconductors cannot figure out basic material science. People who keep bringing these issues up are not debating in good faith.
Ha, I like the irony of being picky about the bits that came off the CD then immediately mashing it into a medium-bitrate MP3. I'm not judging; I spent more time curating a WMA collection than I care to admit.

A limit always existed on speed (and consequently bandwidth) -- it's just that now they're proposing to apply that limit more equitably.
This would compromise on security (for this scheme, time window will presumably be longer, many more keys that can be compromised) and would create an explosion of keys for the user to manage, effectively offloading that work to your customers. I don't know that it would present a simpler experience to force your customers to have a different key for every service for every region.

Anyway, this is from the perspective of a large service provider. For side projects or smaller services, yeah simple can be good. But it really depends on your security requirements, threat model, customer requirements, etc.

Most people can't legally acquire the games to play on a PC emulator. This provides a large number of games for a reasonable price, a plug-and-play experience on an actual TV, and a controller.
