I am glad they are consistent at least. I personally find the idea of an institution mandating yearly injections of any kind to be an overreach of power. Universities tend to do that kind of stuff, though.

(No, I don't have a problem with MMR/TDAP etc., these are vaccines with a long history that protect against diseases which I'm a lot more scared of than COVID. If there was a new strain of Polio tomorrow and a vaccine for it, I would be the first in line.)
I'm not saying you should blindly install the first package you find. My point is, when a program works, and it's maintainable, there's no problem.

So many message here are saying what could go wrong, but I have NEVER actually run into the issues people seem to imply.

In my opinion, your 'community' is just people who shout hard but hardly do any coding IMHO.
Putting aside the combative tone of your comment:

> Are there other areas of your life that you optimize for your own personal preferences at the expense of other sentient beings?

I think the answer must be yes for everyone here. We are choosing to use (and pay for) the internet and electricity when we could instead be buying food for people who have none. We participate in Western economies which prey on the economies of the developing world.

I think it's important to also think about the definition here of 'sentient' and the definition of 'harm'. Is it 'harmful' to build houses, when otherwise animals would live in the fields/forests? Is it 'harmful' to burn fossil fuels for energy? Do you refuse to use electricity which has come from fossil fuel sources?

Is 'sentience' the right point to draw the line? How would you respond to findings like this: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/pce.13065, which comes to the conclusion that the assumption that plants are not sentient may be flawed?

That's it. You have to be that strict a vegan to think it doesn't count.
The CDC director referred to their own epidemiological data which (at the time) showed a clear reduction in transmission due to the vaccination. Clinical trials are generally unsuitable for measuring transmission, since the rate of participants infecting each other is essentially zero even with huge sample sizes. Once again: The CDC director accurately reported what was known at the time.
I don't like using frameworks but I feel this comment is really important. I spent years using frameworks in other languages. Understanding why things are structured the way they are and what works for my needs and what doesn't.

Also when working with a team the value of having a lot of documentation, stackoverflow questions a google search away and an obvious way of doing things seems incredible valuable.

Does building your own microframework brings joy and a sense of accomplishment? yes it does. Does that correlate with accomplishing business needs. Not necessarily.

But ScottsCheapFlights is a very particular concept and not how most people go on vacation. Even with it people have a vague idea of where they would like to go, just perhaps not when.

For example, I would like to go to a major city in Europe sometime this summer. Which city isn’t urgent to me. The week I go doesn’t matter. Except oh so and so is getting married that week of June and I’ve recently been to Germany so would prefer something else.

Very very few people plan their vacations like this. They would rather pay twice the rate a deal site gives them and plan around school breaks for their kids, know which country they are kicking off their bucket list, have a direct flight from their home airport, etc. We who are willing to book an international flight and only then figure out what our vacation will be give up a lot for our discounted ticket prices.

Thank you for your listening, I appreciate that.

There is one case where we agree: telling somebody they are wrong is not gaslighting, ever. For example, Bob claims Lizard people blew up the Nord Stream pipeline. Alice says Bob that he is wrong about that. There is a truth-claim from Bob, and Alice refutes that truth claim. This is not manipulation or gaslighting or anything like that. Similarly, if Trump claims that climate change does not exist, that is not gaslighting - he is simply, wrongly but simply, trying to refute something. This is all fine.

However, things start to get messy when Alice says to Bob: you have always been vulnerable to conspiracy thinking. This is where Alice is making a new truth claim herself that is not about Bobs particular views, but about his capacity to hold any view at all. It doesn't refute Bobs truth-claim about the Lizard people, at least not directly. In fact it doesn't even address this at all. Instead, it aims to persuade Bob of 2 things:

1. I am vulnerable to conspiracy thinking.

2. Therefore I should not trust my own judgement in case of the involvement of Lizard people in the Nord Stream pipeline.

Ok. However, it also sows more doubt in Bobs mind:

3. If I can't be trusted to think about Lizard people, how can I be confident in any other matters? Should I even vote? Maybe I am crazy.

Now, maybe Alice says she was just trying to do Bob a favor and rid him of delusional views about Lizard people, but does that matter? The effect is the same: Bob is starting to doubt himself. Has he been gaslit by Alice?

Suppose we later find out that this was her intention after all, and this is just one step in her attempt at gaining control over Bob. Is it now gaslighting? Of course it is, but I would argue it was already so in the first place.

> No idea. All the owners of that model of iphone. I have no clue how many units were sold. How is that important?

So, you have no idea how many were affected, but "all users". How is that important? If it was 1% of 1% of users affected, then it's probably better than most diving equipment. If it's 99%, then it's bad.

> Let's ignore that until a better source is given.

And yet, when we talk about Apple it's "I don't know, all of them". Hm...

> In any event, those are companies that have sold millions of units.

So has Apple. Your point?

> that few rich hobbyists will do that, and no professional diver.

How is that relevant to your implicit trust in diving computers and explicit mistrust in Apple because of something that happened 12 years ago to an unknown percentage of users for a phone that in first three days sold more than probably all dive computers are being sold in a year.

> I'm sure failures and issues will come out, but not in the same numbers,

I wonder if you realise that individual models from various dive computer makers are probably selling in the same numbers as what's expected from Apple Watch Ultra.

And yet, you trust them implicitly.
Malaria is not an infection by a coronavirus (I do know one person too, FTR, my grandfather during the Albanian campaign in WWII). And it is not age stratified like a SARS-CoV-2 infection. And there's no 95% seroprevalence like with SARS-CoV-2 in most regions that had surges.
This 100%. I think the people largely arguing for no frameworks have no idea what real productivity looks like at large scale engineering orgs. This mostly means you are not handcrafting libraries. There is a dedicated team who manages platform tooling including the frameworks/SDKs you use. Product teams may contribute to that but they will mostly be consumers. I always equate this to car manufacturing. I am not buying a kit car, I am not buying a hobby car, I'm buying a well engineered product from a large scale manufacturer. Frameworks and platforms fall into this category, especially for enterprises.

I think it's fine for small teams not to use frameworks, and maybe 200 person engineering orgs are made up of many small teams who just want to agree on a protocol rather than shared framework/platform but once the scale starts to increase you really need to start tightening up and implementing some better standards.

People constantly talk about not being Google, well let me tell you the people scale is all the same, the amount of legacy infra is all the same. If you haven't peaked into the depths of the messy multi-decade enterprise you have no clue. Your 4 year old company that you joined 6 months ago is no comparison to something with a legacy of 3 decades with 2k+ engineeers scattered across a disparate org trying to modernise in the cloud or whatever comes next.

The slang is English / Western language specific really. Words like choom, nova, and preem only make sense in a multicultural setting like American English. Don’t really remember Japanese equivalents to these terms from either the anime or the game, and the Korean absolutely does not have the extra slang either which takes a lot away from the experience IMO. It’s not like Japanese and Korean speakers are incapable of figuring out made up words so it’s a very conscious, deliberate difference to me. I did notice that German dialogue in the game did include some of the English slang which makes this more puzzling for myself. I’d bet that the Polish dialogue includes the in-world slang or even makes its own slang but I’m not familiar enough with Polish to understand when / if that happens in the dialogue.

> Apple is behind the first general purpose programmable dive computer

Unless Apple got into it before Heinrichs Weikamp and the OSTC [1]

This is an Open Source dive computer, that is extremely well regarded in the technical diving world. The firmware is open source and there is a "big" community, considering the niche market.

Unless apple came up with a new decompression algorithm that will model how tissues load and offgas, all you need are tables, a bottom timer a depth gauge and to follow your plan (with contingency for depth and time).

Blindly following a computer will get you in trouble if it fails during the dive.

> Individuals are eligible for the booster 2 months after their last booster or 3 months after their most recent COVID infection.

Folks trying to avoid the vaccine are simply going to produce recent COVID +ve test reports, right? I wonder if some will actively seek out getting infected by the actual virus (!) to bypass this.

EDIT: Worse, imagine seeking out someone already infected, catching the virus from them, then getting COVID -ve reports from all labs because some unique strains aren't caught? That'd be a story.
My understanding is that many OS kernels into the 1980’s didn’t even have a single lock: Because the only thing that could switch the sole—this is assumed to
be a uniprocessor—running kernel “thread” was a hardware interrupt, critical sections would be protected by simply disabling interrupts.
“Meanwhile, 37.2% of people – 22.2 million – declared they had “no religion”, the second most common response after Christian. It means that over the past 20 years the proportion of people reporting no religion.”

Again, you're layering speculation on top of speculation in some childish fantasy that the entire moneyed elite are not only complete ghouls but that they decided they should all share in their illegal indulgences in the presence of each other and some untrustworthy host who was secretly recording everything. It just isn't very plausible. A pampered rich man with taste for underage girls killing themselves rather than facing a life sentence is very plausible. Surely there's some bits that remain undiscovered but the chances of an elaborate conspiracy are nil. And we have nearly zero evidence to support any of it.

I think meat mimicking is a wrong approach. When I was 12-15, my grandma made a lot of plant-based menu, I don't even know what it is back then, so I don't know it's supposed to be meat alternative. It's just one strange menu that has a good taste.

I mean, should they try create a new naming system, stop advertising as anything related to meat at all. Create a whole new menu set, they don't even need burger! Look around the world of feed, mediterranean, italian, portuguese, south east asia etc. Plant-based chelf should be the whole new study as well. The current plant-based industry is so mediocre or too early.

The problem with this blend of specious reasoning is that to start off these conspiracy theories do not have any prior whatsoever. These conspiracy loons build their system of belief at best around flimsy conjectures, and reinforce their baseless beliefs on any noise that they manage to overfit around those.

A broken clock being right twice a day does not vindicate conspiracies around broken clocks.

Write a poem comparing love to tractors:

A flower so beautiful like the shining sheet metal body
reflecting the light though the tires are muddy

--- generate! ---

A tractor stands tall and proud, a symbol of strength
it takes its own path, it doesn't need a length

Love is like a tractor, it gives us a push
it's full of power, it can be a plus

It carries us over the hills and valleys so high
it helps us get through, no matter how we try

It can take us to places we've never been before
soaring through the sky, no need to explore

A tractor and love have so much in common
they both give us hope, they never stop runnin'

The tractor is reliable and won't ever let us down
just like love, it's always around

A tractor is more than a machine, it's a symbol of strength
just like love, it can go any length.
