Typing is faster than hand-writing (at least for any decent touch-typist).

I do make mistakes mostly related to muscle memory instead (the example I hit often is not top of mind, but imagine typing "best" instead of "bet" because I type "best" much more often).

Your examples definetely don't resonate with me, especially since I'd read "sean" as "Shaun" or "Shawn", and "plaid" with a very long "a". IOW, they are vocally very different.

I am not a native English speaker, but I have been a heavy user for 20+ years.
I worked for 2 that used it.
What Americans call "unlimited", I used as, the only way to get Internet at home between 2005 and 2008. It was an early offering reasonably priced - I had spotty reception though so telnet/ssh and later mosh were the name of the game. Used shell account on high school servers to run torrents etc. Made Sun's offer to send you NetBeans and Solaris DVDs for free way more interesting.
What exactly do you think you're looking at when clicking the post link? Their balance sheet?
I think a better approach is to take ui tests into account during development and use data attributes, like data-cy="input-username" or data-input-name="username"

Also the issue with Selenium isn't with finding elements on a page
Now that you mention it, I actually seem to remember that most plans nowadays are limitless in the same sense: When you've spent you 4 or 10gb, you simply "run out" of 3/4g data and start using data speed limited to essentially 2g, which is unlimited.
I feel safety standards should not only take into account the damage done to occupants of the vehicle in case of accident, but also the damage done to occupants of the other vehicle (and pedestrians, cyclists, ... ). To a certain extent this is probably already the case, but I think it should be much more important.
I tell companies 90 days. When they ignore me I go public at 90 days, consequences be damned.

No jail time for simply telling the truth about a discovery I made on my own time.

I just tried to pick a date most similar to the present one :)

If you dig through the archives, I think you may find that the politicisation of reddit happened earlier than you thought. 2008 reddit already seems like mostly politics to me, which I think happened simply because the audience started trending less nerdy.

I propose that politics are simply a very popular topic to discuss, and naturally rise to the top as the group becomes less homogenous.
It seems the quote marks might be there because 911 wasn't really called, but it was still very serious...

If you work in walk-in emergency health care you tend to take calling actual 911 way more seriously than most people do from what I understand, even though some would say there's not a huge difference between calling emergency services (911) and calling emergency services (non-emergency line). It's a point of nuance and a lot of people will tell you--911 is for the big and bad, usually near-deadly situations.

Anyway it's interesting that there really was a legitimately deadly serious situation in multiple ways, and this person who represents the circumspect nursing community seemingly took even more additional circumspect care in phoning it in. When a lot of people in such a situation would have probably given up much earlier and perhaps even lost their composure & ability to work completely.
If your component has a hard dependency on B, then there’s not much you can do there if you want to test it. But if not you could make the component B injected in A dynamic (e.g. specified as a prop/children) and leave it out entirely in your test.

For testing things from a functional perspective I really like Cypress component testing (actually, I really hate it, but it’s the best thing I’ve found).
Discounts that aren’t instantly arbitraged away usually have a reason.

I don’t know in this case but it sounds like people don’t trust GBTC.
Indeed! The headline gave false hopes that the article may advocate for returning to plain text emails. It instead talks as if the biggest problem with email is the lack of even more complicated features. The introduction of html has already turned email it into a push version of attention seeking and pervasive user tracking on the web. It has made email ux bad for normal purposes like business communications. I for one really don't want any more of that.
The primary market for tether has huge transaction fees, so any collapse will happen on secondary first.
Great software, at a amazing price - the new universal license discounted is an incredible value.

Super easy to start using and great design + functionality.

Just hope Adobe doesn’t end up buying Affinity like it has done with many others.
There have been MANY such attacks against the iPhone (and every other device), most of them against the biometrics mechanisms, which tend to be pretty weak as a matter of first principles. Add to that the persistent hints/rumors/claims of gray market unlock/rooting kits available to large entities. Phones just aren't that secure, though they're much more so than they were a decade ago. Security vs. physical access is an extremely hard nut to crack, it's only been in the last few years that we genuinely thought it was even possible.
I've used both for about as much for quite some years, both OS phones are always with me.

I'd say iPhones used to be snappier maybe 5+ years ago, but nowadays I grab an Android phone if I want something to be done fast, say perform a web search. Two exceptions: 1) Android phones are stuttery disasters for some time after booting up. No big deal, since I rarely power my phones off. 2) iPhone is usually faster to snap a photo than Android.

For anything security related, like banking etc. I use iPhone.

Of course your mileage may vary.
Folks act like my grandparents are gonna die, but I’m like “Bro, they’ve been at this game 90 years. I think they got this.”
That is blatantly just missing the point of the complaint. Mastodon is not "social media" and a bunch of "social media users" showed up triggering a change in culture of Mastodon to be more like the thing the author opted out of by using Mastodon!
U.S. tech companies reportedly lost a combined $4 trillion in value this year. To put that in perspective, that’s more than the combined GDPs of Turkey, Argentina, and Switzerland.

This comparison of value to value per year should probably die already.
My daughter wears earrings, so she never needs a SIM ejection tool. But I keep one on my keyring - amazing how handy it is. (I don't carry a PIN-locked SIM card!)
USDC Loses Peg
It can temporarily depeg if there are more people selling than there are people who are able to redeem who are incentivised to defend the peg

On Bitfinex the peg has held strong because Bitfinex have a close relationship with Tether and enabled customers to convert USD/USDt freely (for now)

Other exchanges are experiencing either a temporarily blip (will eventually get arbitraged away) or it's the beginning of Tether being insolvent. Time will tell
Elon Musk scraps Twitter’s work from home policy
I wish america would export its values of speech and guns here. It'd be a massive improvement. I find it strange that the latter is never an exported value (only ever clandestine exported goods) and only some of the former.
> Yes, it is, which in practical terms means that the company behind Tether should own real-world assets that cover all the outstanding USDT.

Asset. Not assets.

There is only one asset that an operation so big and trusted by so many should hold and that is U.S. Treasuries.

If you feel frisky you could do G-8 govt. bonds but that's about it really. And you are taking a chance on the forex exchange.

FTX just imploded because they didn't realize this simple fact. If you are a custodian and you are not advertising yourself as an active asset manager you should stick to US Treasuries and even that could be considered a breach because you should keep USD in a bank.

Keep USD in a bank and you have nothing to fear.
Hahahah thank you for posting this, I was about to go look for this because I remember being in tears laughing when I saw it this first time and immediately thinonof this whenever I see voice controlled things
This is incidentally a valid reason for HN to blacklist the NYT domain, at least until a formal reversal of the policy.
So let me rephrase my question - what part of the blame should be assigned to the victim here, if their "fault" was buying a phone made and marketed by one of the largest and most well known software developers on the planet?

Also, this is an interesting discussion in general. If someone forgets to lock their door and a thief gets in and robs them, do you think it's fair to "blame" the person who forgot to lock their door? Or do you think that maybe we should recognize that 100% of the blame should be on you know, the person doing the robbing?
Tumblr has been my favorite social medium for a while now, for many of the reasons mentioned here, but it is not a replacement for Twitter. It's oriented toward longer posts, which among other things means that you usually won't be able to see multiple posts on screen at once. In fact, the "color of the sky" post was a deliberate prank on this; it's very very long, to make it even harder to get to the next posts by scrolling (avoidable using hotkeys though). Reblogs are similar to retweets, but seeing all replies to a post at once is nowhere near as easy as on Twitter. The UX is just very different.

Most importantly, the people there don't want a Twitter vibe. (That includes me even though I'm also on Twitter and in fact have far more followers there.) They have their own vibe. Skews young, stridently LGBTQ- and ND-friendly (plus fandoms which were already mentioned), a bit too much "armchair socialism" even for me (and I'm pretty far left). People there are genuinely curious, not just "curious" enough to mine others' posts for points to pick at. Shitposting and trolling are welcome as long as they're funny, though there are plenty of longer and more thoughtful posts too.

Overall I find the experience there very pleasant, but people who are less aligned with the local aesthetic are definitely not going to have a good time. Since there's very little technical/business discussion, and even less of the "fight club" atmosphere that prevails here, if you're reading this I'd say you should probably find something else.
App Icon AI – Unique AI generated app icons/logos
Yes. I work as a developer 20 years already, programmed everything from frontend, backend to microcontrollers and some scripting. I still like it. I could do other things, but nothing would pay as much and they would probably not be that fun when done as a day job.

How I got hired - a developer friend needed some help in his job, I've modified some sql queries, he recommended me (a student then) and they hired me.
>Mastodon isn't monolithic, and only exists because of server admins and people that work hard to build communities.

Sure and yet they have been caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

>You sound like you've never actually used Mastodon or even understand how it works.

In fact I was an early adopter who has a coveted handle. I did the same with the various other social media.

>I can't speak for all Mastodon instances but the one I used actually let people post NSFW content and porn so what you're saying about Mastodon not respecting free speech is unfounded.

My pihole blocks porn. I did not particularly go seeking this out on mastodon. I don't follow how you went from 'they allow porn, so no censorship' when there's a years long history of them censoring.

>Are you considering Twitter a bastion of free speech

No. This is why Elon needed to buy it and fire all the political activists. It may be a bastion of free speech in a few months.

>where you aren't even able to mock its owner despite following the rules and labelling yourself as parody?

I saw it for myself before she was banned. Kathy Griffin NEVER labelled herself as parody and was pushing 'vote for the democrats' under elon's name. Not only is this an actual crime, it was never allowed on twitter.

Kathy was banned because she was not following the rules.

>If really you want to host a gigantic, centralized Mastodon instance for that sort of Twitter experience that's also friendly to edgelords, no one is stopping you.

I created my account on twitter only days ago. I must say, really loving the changes so far.
You don't have to get the hose out just to make it transmit 90% of the light. 2 liters in a bowl is plenty.
I just cannot for the life of me ever understand a test with mocks in.

Mocking things at the module level seems incredibly convoluted to me. You constantly go off and look at where the imports are coming from and trying to keep all that in line.
> That shouldn't be a problem for something like USDT which should be backed 1:1.

What if we all know it’s backed 1:1 by junk bonds?
The Sound of Spirit
The production of anime music videos is a fan activity where tiny clips from animated shows are pasted together, with a piece of music replacing the audio track. The result is typically 3-4 minutes long. The audio may or may not be original; regardless, the video content never is, barring some very very light editing.

These can be quite inventive works; nevertheless, no-one seriously argues that the video content does not breach the original animators' copyright.

The video content of an amv is a much better analogy for what copilot does to third parties' code than anything else I've seen in this post's discussion so far.
I worked in clinical development and the rough estimate of phase 3 clinical trial costs (this is a few years back) was $15,000 per patient per year.

Depending on the trial design it can be less (less frequent follow up, less invasive testing) or a lot more (say doing multiple MRIs or other expensive imaging).

It’s kind of mind blowing when you think about the really big trials for medications like cholesterol. Trials are often 30,000 or more patients, in two trials for 2-3 years.

You’re roughly talking about $2B or more just for phase 3 (ignoring all the earlier trials and preclinical work).

No redemption or creation allowed in GBTC while you get crushed by fees
Sure, but tech companies need marketing, product and recruiters too. Even if it's a software business, it can't just be run by software engineers (even if FB came closer than any other company I've worked for).
So asset classes depend on demand? Well done for understanding this. Not sure why you're picking on digital currency though.
There's a reason why we ended up putting our trials together essentially by trial and error! You learn a lot by writing your own clinical protocol, interacting with the FDA etc. It's an intimidating process at the outset, but if you can save $200k on a first-in-man study by not contracting a CRO, that's gonna extend your runway by a lot!
The "official" channel has a MOQ of $100,000: https://tether.to/en/fees/

There is a huge amount of friction. It's not clear whether they run market-maker operations to pick up the spread between Tether and $1. As always, the question is what actual assets Tether has to meet its claims.
A) Bitfinex all morning has been showing rosier numbers than other exchanges. Which, of course they would, Tether is their scam.

B) You aren't doing any favors to the reputation of crypto bros by doing such a hard core ostrich impression.
Looks like they're pegging it up again.
Same but I find the new recent design to be a betterment this time. Not hard considering Thunderbird had imho a terrible UI. The left panel looks really nice and make the app different functions more readable.
Yes. Welcome to investment, that's how decisions are made: looking at balance sheets and boring numbers (collaterals/assets etc).

If a big investor is willing to sell enough of their tether at a lower price to affect the conversion rate (of a 70B currency), means they figured something that you didn't.

I don't know who's holding the majority of the tether and/or who's driving this discount but certainly they did the boring thing... Not looking at the *sentiment*
Wow, and when you’re banned by the government for being critical of Xi and can no longer buy groceries, what then?
I would guess Tor, I2P, Freenet, GNUNet.

But also configuring or avoiding certain other software: https://spyware.neocities.org/articles/index.html
> Tether is the big one. If Tether collapses it's going to take down Binance and probably every other exchange with it.

Unlikely to bring down certain exchanges that actually keeps peoples currencies around and doesn't lend it out, or fuck around in other ways with peoples deposits. Coinbase comes to mind, where if everyone would take out their money and cryptocurrency ("bank-run"), everyone would likely end up actually getting their things out, although the company in that case would still be fucked.
Wells Fargo and Bank of America are horrible banks. They deserve to go bankrupt and disappear. And anyone working at these places are despicable.
Philip Pullman uses it too to great effect.
I mean it doesn't really take much time at all to find counter examples, does it? There's even a detailed page at Wikipedia with concrete examples, if you haven't ever heard of the concept of a limited or special edition: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_edition

The very first paragraph of the page is helpful:

> The terms special edition, limited edition, and variants such as deluxe edition, or collector's edition, are used as a marketing incentive for various kinds of products, originally published products related to the arts, such as books, prints, recorded music and films, and videogames, but now including clothing, cars, fine wine, and whisky, among other products. A limited edition is restricted in the number of copies produced, although in fact the number may be very low or very high. Suzuki (2008) defines limited edition products as those “sold in a state that makes them difficult to obtain because of companies limiting their availability to a certain period, quantity, region, or channel"

If you adjust the timeframe on OP's linked chart you can see that Tether depegged briefly earlier this year.

Why is that "nice"?
That's not really true at all - you can of course unlock your iPhone without entering PIN for every screen lock which should give you a clue that keys for disk encryption generally aren't purged when iPhone is locked.

Some keys are, but not the ones that are the issue here.

I've even seen conditions where iOS devices reboot and still retain keys.

Are exchanges obligated to conduct a trade? Ie. Are they like a bank, holding your deposit? Or are they like a third party FX booth at an airport?

If the latter, how is this not the most perilous currency to hold?

Try looking at and editing Help => Manual => Mathematical formulas.
To those saying "if it's backed by dollars - isn't this an arbitrage opportunity" you are right.

But the key word there is "IF".

The crypto-world is essentially mass scale "creative-accounting". At the end of the day the MAXIMUM amount of money that can come out, is what went in.

And "money out" includes not just the operating costs, mining fees, and other real-world resources used, but also the staggering number of thefts, rug-pulls, etc.
It's not, this is a common economist fallacy. In practice the bank cannot make a new loan if it doesn't have the liquidity and doesn't have the funding. You may elect to keep the money on a bank account at that bank, in which case it looks like the bank just made two accounting entries, but you often buy something for it which means the money goes away. Whatever you do, the bank couldn't make that loans if it didn't have the liquidity for that loans sitting around.
This is the furthest thing from evidence.
As much as I would enjoy seeing it go to 0, nothing happened at the moment that didn’t happen at least 2 times already.

It's not greed to hold a company accountable to its promises of compensation.

Even so, surprisingly many researchers disclose a bug after setting a reasonable fix deadline, risking to forfeit compensation. Kudos to them!
Patient compensation is intentionally limited to prevent economic incentives from interfering with informed consent; pay people too much and they may participate in research that they would have passed on. Also, speaking from experience, patient compensation is a very small amount (5% or less) of overall cost. The vast majority goes to clinical staff costs, room costs, hospital overhead, labs etc.
"get addicted but only temporarily" is insane advice.
This happens to me with pen and paper all the time. For example I sometimes automatically write "your" using the hiragana or katakana character "yo" with an English lowercase r after it. IMO the mind thinks this combination is more appropriate given the sound of the word being written.

Similar things happen with writing shorthand, like "yr" for "your" even though I'm trying to write out the full word in regular English and the letterforms should not be regular English when using shorthand anyway, but that's how they come out.

Not to discount the possibility that keyboard typing is still somehow different in this way though.
Tesla critic claims his anti-Tesla ad was banned from Twitter
You honestly think the claim about Microsoft and Google products developed pre-2020 is unsupported?

I don’t believe you really think that.

You are aware these companies and their product teams were all working in office forever right?

Tether is definitely shady, but everything you stated is wrong.

You can redeem tether for a dollar anytime on their website [1].

Bitcoin has multiple markets on multiple exchanges. Some markets are between BTC and USD, some are between BTC and USDT, some are between BTC and BUSD (Binance's coin that is pegged to USD etc.). The reported price is a weighted average of these markets. It is never just USDT.

There are 7 exchanges on the first page of CoinMarketCap where you can buy Bitcoin with dollars directly [2]. Look for BTC/USD pair.
