> Because you're serving a warrant on a dangerous suspect, who you have reason to believe has community support?

This feels like a contradiction to me. If the suspect is perceived dangerous enough that we need the no knock, surely they are also dangerous enough we need to be prepared for strong, armed resistance right? Body armor, shields etc? All things that are decidedly not 'plain clothes".

I mean if they have that much community support that you are afraid someone will see you coming and tip them off, are you also not afraid that once you've kicked this person's door down you've now got hostiles both inside AND outside?
For me the seasons stuff is not bad. I prefer hot to cold weather (but not Dubai/Qatar level!).

As I said when I put up that link, ''Not directly about snow buildup, per se'' so your mileage may vary depending on how badly the windshield is impacted with ice, frost, snow. It is a good hack to try, not a ''terrible'' one. If it doesn't work on the heavy stuff, go on to the next good hack.
I suspect that's the most plausible, least "evil" theory. Although that still leaves them knowingly gambling that bigger fools, who they intend to take advantage of, will come along later, so I personally wouldn't consider that "good". But I also won't deny it's a dog-eat-dog world at that level and everyone playing at that level is already aware and taking that into account. In that case it just turns out they were the dogs eaten instead of the victors.

I'd go a step further with the comparison to gold. If everyone would stop mining gold today, gold would retain value (or perhaps even go up in value). On the flipside, if we turned off all bitcoin miners today, bitcoin would go to zero instantly (as its worthless without continuous resources being pumped into it).

This is why I'm sympathetic to those who say its ponzi scheme, it only has value because of new resources continuing to be poured into it.
Reminds me of the old Cold War era dynamic where VOA was not allowed to target domestic listeners because the US Govt didn't want to create the potential to (explicitly) propagandize their own people. Similar only in the "don't get high on your own supply" way, not in the overt propaganda way. I don't particularly see any teenaged Dengists around unless I deliberately dredged myself into some weird niche echo chambers.
The overarching point is that it doesn't matter in the scheme of things. It's outrageous as an example but it misses the point that industrial regulation and society wide incentives are needed to tackle climate change, not individual behavior changes of an extremely small group of people.
> dramatically increases site performance, accessibility and the end-user experience

Where are the metrics? Who is the target audience? What is the distribution of hardware among this target? A dramatic increase in performance on a potato might be imperceptible on the latest hardware, lessening or even eliminating the impact of your technology choices.

A dramatic increase in accessibility and end-user experience is also pretty hand-wavy. How did you come to this conclusion? Any examples? I don't see how HTML-only is tied to these things. You can accomplish or fail both with or without heavy CSS and JS.

None of the sites she links to make the case for these assertions. Am I missing something?

What backlash? I see the HTML-only rhetoric so often these days that it's clear this position is becoming rather fashionable.

> I saw an article that included a quote from a current or former Twitter employee saying that "the world needs twitter now more than ever" and I think I may have started to throw up in my mouth a little bit.

Social media has, I believe, been a net negative for the world. The echo chamber it creates is too strong, pushing people into more and more extreme worldviews. There is no more honest dialog, no more meeting of the minds. There is "us" and "them", and "them" is often seen as less than human.

If Elon does destroy Twitter, it might be the single greatest contribution to humanity he ever makes.

> How can there be people in their 30s without a citizenship?

Because they've chosen not to pursue citizenship. There's a simplified path that anyone in this situation can utilize. I don't see how giving them the choice and allowing them to live and work in the country indefinitely even if they choose no is in any way "un-democratic".

And if you're suggesting that 30 years is not enough time to learn the absolute basics of a language, that is just utterly ridiculous. Not nearly as ridiculous as comparing this to the slave labor that built Dubai though.
> All the efforts pushing cryptocurrency for this particular niche would be better served pushing for international standards for cheap and simple instant money transfers.

That seems impossible given today's geopolitics. Crypto remittance at least works.
I would never do it but I understand why people do. They're speculators and daytraders. And it's extremely inconvenient (and expensive) to move money out of wallets and into exchanges and back in order to make a trade. So people take short-cuts and just leave their money in the exchange accounts.

The problem with crypto evangelists is that they keep forgetting it's humans who use it.

Why would an exchange need to borrow money from you to allow transactions?

Both parties of the transaction send their money to the exchange before the transaction takes place. That means the exchange actually has excess (working) capital.
> I had not tested the demo extensively yet

A bit of unsolicited advice: Your demo is a potential user's first impression of the app, which means that you should give it just as much care as you do the full application. If the demo is buggy, people will assume the real app will be just as buggy because there is no reason to assume otherwise, which can ruin any chance of converting them.
I've read his management book and I don't remember anything as easy to use as this scale.

7 Habits is a classic self-help book that would accomplish some of this. Although, it approaches the problem of business indirectly with concepts like degree of control vs. degree of concern. It also suggests principles that an overly busy person cannot follow, but never connects the dots by explicitly saying "you're too busy."

Another one to look at comes from R&D management: Principles of Product Development Flow. The first couple chapters, especially, explain the problems of trying to maintain a full schedule (queueing theory.) I would probably make a resource based on the book rather than just handing someone a copy, unless you know they'd not be intimidated by it. https://www.amazon.com/Principles-Product-Development-Flow-G...
Are you, in the same post, arguing that "the citizens have not signed off on it", that "they seem to consider the work being done a very good thing", and that "things aren't Democratic"?

Lol. Talk about cognitive dissonance. Count me in as someone who approves of military research. Seems like an incredible amount of humanities achievements come through military research and I quite like some of them. So, keep doing it please.

On a more realistic note, I'd much prefer democracies have the most advanced weapons in the world . And I think that the USAF protects most democracies in the world. So I'm pro a strong USAF.

The difficulty would be not contributing to the deathhug. You could check if it's accessible at all if everyone accessed a server that was itself polling the site every minute, but trying to gauge beyond "accessible" and "not accessible" seems difficult.

Best would be if a site could report its availability status on its own externally. Anyone know of an existing service where you can report the status of your website?

Yeah it reads more like an intro to FPS play for anyone who is new rather than something age specific.

My reflexes haven't declined to any great degree. I'm sure if I measured them yearly since my early 20s there would be a measured decline, but it would be something on the order of handfuls of milliseconds, not a giant change despite the fact that I'll be half a century old next October.
Really sad how crypto devolved into a bunch of "wagmi" nonsense. It was originally meant to be a more serious counterweight to the excess of central bank monetary policies. Now it's just grifters and scammers.

Oh well.
Hard agree. If you are having guns pulled on your regularly, that's definitely not just "bad neighborhood" issues. You either have extremely bad luck or need to reevaluate your life choices.

Anyways, to get back on topic: having an old woman stand in front of her house in underwear while the neighbors watch is completely unnecessary but totally unsurprising. Moves like this contribute to the ongoing breakdown in policing legitimacy, and we shouldn't settle for a world where we have to choose the least bad unaccountable organized gang.

Just to put a finer point on it: this kind of humiliation would never happen during a home invasion, and for most people the humiliation is a larger harm than losing some computer equipment.

> we live in 2022 with high broadband and powerful browsers/CPU

It would be nice if this were true but we're far from it. High broadband is not a given, browsers are slow (yes), CPUs stopped scaling vertically and don't compensate for bad programming anymore.

It seems to me that the choice of not using HTML-only has more to do with the inability to do so, rather than the desire to not limit oneself.
I'm adding here in case Evernote reads this thread.

I used to use Evernote extensively, mainly for web clipping, but also filing things away.

Nowadays I rarely use anything except the mobile apps, or the clipping browser plugins, but Evernote is essential to me for permanent filing which I can search at any time. I would be lost without it and am willing to keep paying for it. I'm sure other people want it for note keeping and I have no idea how well that works. What does work is their document/photo scanning app, which I use regularly.

A long time ago, the founder made much of the fact that my data was fully portable and provided the api details to enable me to export it out of Evernote completely. I think this is very important, especially for a company that may be seen as less viable for a while. I was disappointed, the other day, that I could no longer use Evernote's published query language to search using a boolean query. This may well be because the facility is now a pay-extra feature. I have to say that adding on little features and then asking users to pay for them is the worst thing when I am already a premium user! Please stop doing this.

That's my two penn'orth.

Accenture was brought in to justify the decision that was already made to kill the project, because the internal management didn't have the confidence to make and sell their own decisions.

> Unless ongoing costs are essential to the thing being provided

That's not the definition of rent-seeking.

"Rent seeking [...] is an economic concept that occurs when an entity seeks to gain added wealth without any reciprocal contribution of productivity."

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/rentseeking.asp

The "reciprocal contribution of productivity" provided by the Warp developers is increased functionality of the software.

You can argue that you'd rather pay once for a particular version of the software (I would), or that you don't want to pay for a terminal emulator in the first place (I don't either), or that the Warp devs could stop improving the software in the future (and they could), but "rent-seeking" is still an incorrect description of their business model, and is only used by people who have an agenda trying to slander Warp for some reason.

FPS games require skills along two primary axis. One is your physical skill. Can you click on heads very quickly and accurately? This skill has an age related peak. If you're good at this alone, you can be successful playing these games.

Another axis is "game sense" which is a combination of map, player and meta knowledge. What are the most common routes taken by the enemy on this map? If we secure this site, what are the most likely avenues of approach the enemy will take? What weapons are my opponents most likely to buy based on the current phase of the match, and how can we respond? A player with better game sense can be competitive with people who are better at those twitch reactions by setting up scenarios which favor tactical advantage over raw shooting skill. Communication is key here as well. You have to be able to get your team onboard with setting up these scenarios. These skill do not decrease with age except at the extreme end.

Obviously the best players are great at both of these. That's why many pro players have videos out there of them destroying people who are cheating with an aim bot. Their knowledge of the game and maps give them such an advantage they can overcome literally impossible reaction times from opponents. But being competent at either one will enable to you enjoy and be competitive in these games, especially if they use rank based match making to ensure you're not getting matched against those super players. At the lower to mid rank of these games, you can see examples all over the place where individuals are competent at one of these dimensions, but there is almost always a glaring gap in the other. Whether it's the person who can consistently get head shots but also runs themselves into unfavorable positions so they keep dying, to the people who are trying to coordinate and plan but lose almost every one on one engagement. As you get older you've got to rely more on that game sense than you can rely on your raw reactions and that puts a real upper age limit on pro level competition, but shouldn't in any way prevent people from being able to compete in the pleb arenas.
