I think people are just arguing that this is a terrible practice. Instead of having a clogged up taskbar, you have a clogged up tray. In hindsight, Microsoft should have somehow added a better UI affordance back in the 90s, to disincentives this abuse.

Mac has its own share of applications going against the OS convention. There are quite a few third party Mac applications that annoyingly force the process to exit when the user closes the main window. There are Mac apps that are also starting to intercept ⌘Q and not exiting the process or, infuriatingly, making you hold the key down in order to actually exit (I'm looking at you, Chrome).

I wish product designers would please just stop thinking their app is uniquely special, second guessing OS conventions.

>There was no comment about how it was reasonable to make the phone call, and there's specific criticism of the police conduct... All they said was that at the point CPS got involved, it's entirely possible that CPS did their job exactly as they should have.

I would suspect the first step of any investigation would be to find out why they are investigating and not just set everything in motion based on a vague report from police?
It's not for nothing that at college, the course in Fourier Series & Boundary Value Problems was better known as Mystery Math. There was a single key insight that made the entire course suddenly clear as a bell, and if you were lucky, that insight came _before_ the final exam.

At start you had 10 bucks and he had 10 bucks worth of crypto for total assets of 20

It certainly does. There are different formulations of it (by Donoho-Stark and by Tao, that I know of). They work when the domain is a finite abelian group.

I think it's really hard to think up of curriculum for a "programming" class. It'd be hard to standardize across different professors. Also while I do think that more programming experience would benefit most new grads, it's hard for me to say that it would be more beneficial than say better interpersonal working skills or even specialized knowledge.

FWIW at the uni I attended, projects were a huge part of some classes (usually ~50%) and there were some SWE specific classes where you learn best practices / tooling. You would need to be able to program in order to graduate. I feel like this is the norm and not the exception, but I may be wrong.

There were a lot of CS clubs at my school that hosted workshops and tried to teach people some of this stuff. Maybe you can find a club (or start one) at your school.

My thought too- charging higher prices in the first place & passing the same % on to the venue would allow you to offer the venues a better deal while still allowing fans to pay less than they would to resellers.

Limited/no transfers - returns offered instead - offer flexibility to customers.

However as others have said I think the real obstacle is the venue relationships that came from the purchase of LiveNation. These are difficult to replace although maybe it would be possible to start with smaller venues and acts....or using public places a la music festivals.
I don't understand what you mean by "ability to live wherever you want". Taxes are pretty much always based on residency, it doesn't matter whether you hold a Dubai Golden visa if you live outside of Dubai.
You don't worry about repetitive strain injury from all that chording? I try to avoid that sort of thing as much as possible; even though I use emacs, I do it with evil bindings. Capslock rebound as control is useful, but the bottom row modifiers seem problematic. I can't easily reach those modifier keys while also keeping my fingers on the home row; I have to either contort my thumb or pinky in a bad way, or move my entire hand (which is usually how I use those keys.) Either way, keeping hands straight and my fingers positioned on the home row seems much safer and comfortable. I just can't imagine using a language where I have to altgr for every character I type.

Directly from the website operator:

"I am Joerg Arnu, owner and webmaster of the Dreamland Resort web site (www.DreamlandResort.com). The subject of the web site is Area 51. I have operated that web site since 1999.

Last week Thursday (11/3/22) in the early morning my homes in Rachel (just outside of Area 51) and in Las Vegas were searched by a joint force of FBI and AF OSI. This happened without any warning. The doors were broken open and I in Rachel and my girlfriend in our Las Vegas home were detained and treated in the most disrespectful way. My girlfriend was led out into the street barefoot and only in her underwear in full view of our neighbors; I was led outside, handcuffed and only in t-shirt and sweats in sub-freezing temperatures.

Each home was searched by 15-20 agents in full riot gear, causing further damage in both homes besides the broken front doors. Despite my repeated requests for an explanation, I was only told that the search was related to images posted on my Area 51 web site.

I was very surprised how forceful the search warrant was executed and how rough we, both unarmed senior citizens, were treated. I have to believe that someone gave them bad information about us. All my laptops, phones, backup drives, camera gear and my drone were seized. With the equipment I lost all my medical records, financial and tax records, passwords, email and phone contacts, photos etc. Even my phone was taken, leaving me in Rachel with two broken doors and no way to communicate or call for help.

Not counting my expected legal expenses my losses so far include over $20k in equipment taken and over $5k in damage.

There are 40 pages missing from the search warrant I received and the case records are sealed. So, I cannot look up the reason for the search and I do not want to speculate. I left several messages with the FBI agent in charge but he has not returned any of my calls. At this point I have no choice but to take legal action to try and get my equipment back and to seek reimbursement for the damage.

In an effort to defuse the situation I have removed some material from my Dreamland Resort web site although I believe that it was legally obtained and legal to publish. I am not sharing anything on my web site that cannot be found on dozens of other web sites and news outlet publications. Considering how this went down I have no intention of removing any more material unless ordered to do so by a federal judge.

I believe the search, executed with completely unnecessary force by overzealous government agents was meant as a message to silence the Area 51 research community. The question now is: How far will they go?

"

Of course not - I only saw it as a way of diversifying the crypto portion of my diversified investments. But there was a bit of crypto - I'm just glad I didn't recommend others join me.
Yes, VCF East and VCF Midwest are both great, though pretty much unrelated oter than the genre! The VCF East swap meets and workshops are also great. System Source in Maryland also hosts VCFed-affiliated workshops. We're hoping to start doing them at our business in central VA (near Lexington, the southern I-64/I-81 interchange) soonish.
Everyone who is taking this too seriously and disagreeing with the rankings is missing the fact that this is some absolutely hilarious comedy.

Look at the review for the arkansas black apple, it's hilarious.

> This teeth-shattering oddity, boasting a deep red hue that’ll make a dark cherry look like a fluorescent glow stick, will destroy your helpless mouth with every unfortunate bite. A ten out of ten on the Mohs Hardness Scale, this apple would perform admirably as a drill tip in a diamond mine. While true the hardness marginally decreases if left in your refrigerator for a full year, those patient enough to plan lunch into the next decade will be sorely disappointed with a thick-skinned carbuncle that tastes and feels like an uncooked russet potato. Truly despicable.
And that’s why it’s called tragedy of the commons.

Some currently-fashionable methods of literary analysis deliberately ignore author biography, but I don't think most people who favor those would claim there's never any reason for or value in examining the biographies of authors. I don't think they'd suggest people, say, entirely ignore the biography of an author forever and in all cases. Besides, it's common for one person to apply multiple approaches for a really deep analysis of a work, whether independently or together.

Plus, this is a review of a biography, so it's not the reviewer's fault the book is concerned with biography.

Exercise helps with releasing neurotransmitters like meds do. It’s a known effect, and was recommended to me when I started meds.

It works unreasonably well.

However, different people need both different meds, and different dosages, so it’s not a substitute for everyone.

Genuinely glad it’s working for you, meds are one less thing you need to manage.

> Why would I want to have a thing in memory, copy it to more memory, modify the copy, then free up the original memory every time?

You don't do that, runtime does that for you.

The main benefit is better assumptions about code you write. The prime example is how different languages handle object construction and modification:

var date = new Date(2022, 11, 21)

var other = date.addDays(10)

The question is: what do `date` and `other` contain?

Depending on the language the answer may surprise you. Some languages modify `date`. Others don't. And you never know which of the methods exposed on an object modify it unless you read documentation. Neither the compiler nor the type system can help you.

However, if objects are immutable, you are guaranteed that the original object, `date` is never modified. And if you need to use it again, you know it contains the same data without it suddenly changing.

This gives rise to another important property: you can send this to another thread without mutexes or without creating weird synchronization points like Java's AtomicInteger. Since the object cannot be mutated, threads don't have to fight for exclusive access to read it.

It sucks, but search for used versions of those books. As long as you're willing to wait a week or two, you can often get used books internationally for <10 dollars.

Also ask your professors if they can share relevant parts of the books they use. Many countries outside the English-speaking world have partial copyright exemptions for education.

A last resort may be to ask professors whether they can apply for evaluation copies. Publishers often give free copies to educators so they can evaluate books for their curriculum. Sadly, it's mostly digital versions today.
At least a few reasons I can think of:

- Career academics don't necessarily have the level of experience in building large-scale software systems that need to exist and be maintained for a long time to teach that as a skill.

- University programs in general focus on time-tested fundamentals that aren't going to change much over the decades, and practical programming skills involve a whole lot of toolset bikeshedding minutiae that is inherently ephemeral and not suited for curriculum.

- Semesters are too short to allow students to go through much in the way of a full development lifecycle on a project of any notable scale (exception for TAs and grad students working on libraries and tools maintained by the schools).

Not speaking for all schools, but I'll say for Georgia Tech that I felt courses with significant project components were actually great for practicing programming as a practical, vocational thing, but at the same time, there was very much an attitude among the faculty that they weren't going to teach you to program or anything about the specifics of languages and toolchains. You either needed to know that already or figure it out. Maybe that was elitist, but they were explicitly and intentionally selecting for the kind of people who can figure it out on their own. If nothing else, it is a lot easier to teach yourself programming than it is to teach yourself computer science and mathematics.

I never really experienced this kind of thing with other subjects. Physics and biology labs definitely taught you how to use the lab equipment, but in fairness, it isn't feasible to set up your own lab, whereas any 10 year-old can get a sufficient programming lab out of a $50 R Pi with Internet access.

I don't think there's any point or future in the forks that simply change the block size or other similar parameters when the Lightning Network [0] exists (i.e. state channels).

In fact, I can't think of a better choice than Bitcoin. All PoS blockchains I know of are fundamentally broken in at least one way (however that might change with [1]), Bitcoin is good enough for payments, and the alternatives that support smart contracts usually utilise a broken ledger model (account model [2]).

The remaining blockchains are very niche, hence there isn't any viable alternative to Bitcoin AFAICT.

E-residency is a scam, you basically have to pay taxes 'duties' without any major benefits 'rights' and protection as the citizens of that country have.
"Not your wallet, not your coins" is true, but kinda irrelevant here.

The coins themselves are sometimes worthless (like FTX's token), or can be frozen (Tether does this: https://www.coindesk.com/business/2022/11/10/tether-freezes-...). It doesn't matter if you hold a collapsed coin in your wallet or an exchange's; it's still not gonna do you any good.
The author determined that because their was negotiating a venture deal when he put the stock in his ira. He knew it was worth many times more than he claimed because he was about to be given that valuation by investors.
so, uh, you gonna tell us the insight?
When talking about spending, some people exclude programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, income security programs from their list of spending because it doesn't need to be approved every year - it is classified as 'Mandatory Spending' and is 63% of the budget.

The remaining spending, has to be approved every year is classified as 'Discretionary Spending'. When you just look at discretionary spending, the military budget is the biggest piece. But if someone says the US spends most of its budget on military spending, it is false and deceptive.
This is why we need to move away from pressurized water based reactors. Most of this material is in the shielding needed because the system is designed around keeping water at several hundred atmospheres pressure. Operating at atmospheric should dramatically reduce materials costs going forward (but still needs substantial research investment to get going and regulators that aren't so stuck in their ways)

Indeed and this is something that bothers me with law enforcement in the US in general.

I feel like so much could be improved, both in terms of reducing crime rates and in terms of people actually respecting law enforcement of having a more "friendly" approach. Obviously if there's an imminent threat to life then obviously you expect them to be a bit more heavy handed, but I do feel like there's many things that could be dealt with without resorting to well, this.

In terms of database and framework design there are several Rust libraries that come close. Diesel for database and migrations and something like Rocket for the backend itself should be enough for a quick JSON API or Thymeleaf based page renderer.

Auto generated admin stuff is pretty rare in anything outside Django I think, though I don't see why one couldn't make those for Rust. I suppose most devs would probably want their CRUD APIs to function on their own and use those for management if performance is critical enough that you'd prefer Rust over something like dotnet or Java.
A quick glance at the website makes it seem like PayPal but using "tokens" instead of just leaving everything in normal currency values.
The C++ committee recognized this problem. As of C++17, copy elision is mandatory. Several forms of it, at least.
A lot of military spending is disguised (not to say maliciously) as funding to other agencies. For example, that number is probably just the Pentagon's budget, and wouldn't include things like Veterans Affairs (which is about $300 billion) or foreign aid (around $50 billion) or the Department of Homeland Security (around $50 billion) or our nuclear force ($35 billion), etc.

Even some of NASA's funding is for monitoring nukes.

The point is that it's actually kind of hard to calculate how much we spend on defense, because it's hard to know what to count, but it's certainly more than it looks like. Over $1 trillion is a safe guess.
IANAL but I think there also are no legal penalties for filling out a restraining order for crazy old ladies who threaten your family. In some states, the judges apparently issue them "because it was filled out right" [0], and a after it's ordered the bitch could be thrown in jail if she accidently gets with X yards of your family and could have her gun rights taken away.

While technically correct, I will point out that during "the crash" many with access to capital are able to secure a net long position either by way of savings or via real options -- LLC is an example of a real option where the capitalist only loses the investment value making the financial leverage an attractive and useful tool.

People losing jobs and thinking about their next steps are usually too late with not enough skin in the game to jump on the decade-long bandwagon. That's the "wealth" some of the commenters here seem to be pointing to. Essentially, inequality.
