Just got kicked out of it an hour ago because it's too busy now.

Been playing with it the whole day - got an idea on how to fix an old bug in an old programme of mine(that is still running).

But, here's the thing, how good it is depends on the available knowledge out there.

I've now tried, js, python, solidity, appscript(not tested the code), Excel and google sheets.

When you're building common js, python, etc stuff, it's really handy to have one screen that basically gives you the answer rather than having to google it, parse through the posts, etc.

However, if you're on the bleeding edge of tech, or looking for more obscure topics, it really starts showing its limitations.

I managed to run into that for example looking for Jupiter notebook commands, optimisations, versioning (giving me python2 results instead of python3 with obsolete/unmaintained packages).

Its limit is basically what has been created and knowledge already available.

Depending on what you're building, would suggest understanding what you're copy pasting and possible vulnerabilities that may arise from the code.

Overall, I'm sold - defo wouldn't mind paying 20 to 40 a month for this. If it's pricier, not so sure.
You forgot that the engine user may cheat and even if they declare the engine there's no real way to detect if they're truthful and not using a certain of the engine tuned for Human Chess specifically.
Prednisone is an anti-inflammatory steroid. It is a pretty effective at relieving pain and other symptoms from a variety of medical conditions, so a lot of patients will feel better regardless of whether they actually have "long Covid" or not. Prednisone also has some pretty severe side effects so chronic use should be avoided.

> Apple doesn’t ask for or take a mandatory cut of in-app money transfer services.

I suppose you mean like when I use Venmo or my bank. Okay, but I can't readily use those to buy other in-app things like subscriptions, right? So it's consistent.
> Apparently US folks often have dishwashers which don't soften the water. Ugh. In Europe I haven't even heard that such a thing exists!

I've only come across this in Spain so far. Never seen in Norway. But maybe I just haven't been paying attention. Then again, the water in Norway in :chefskiss:

How... many... years ago? When I started cooking professionally in the 80s three-stage hand wash had already been required by health codes everywhere for decades. I've seen all kinds of shit but every kitchen at least has the setup and chemicals for that for health inspections if nothing else. In practice even the sketchiest restaurants will have quats even if they only fill it once a day.
>Voicing disapproval of cancel culture is received as trying to advocate against cancel culture. That might not be your intent, but it is how it is received.

As I said:

>All this is to say that while there may always be an implicit social pressure involved with all speech, it is generaly at a tolerable (and if not then inevitable) degree. While mass cancelation is a method of exerting social pressure, and while as you say both regular speech and cancelation result in some amount of social pressure, the social pressure exerted by cancelation is to a much higher degee, and the reason is that it is intended and therefore amplified, rather than minified as would be in a productive discussion.

Therefore there is no hypocrisy, because the degree is much lower and from a moral evaluatory stanpoint of intention one aims to maximize and the other to minimize. To say all disagreements and expressed moral convictions are censorship is to remove censorship as a meaningful word. Therefore we must in order to have this word in to a case of above average pressure.
the hilarity of suggesting use of something from Amazon when the discussion is about avoiding health hazards...

What are you getting from a coffee shop that has been through a dishwasher? The mug?
At this point iPhone isn't a product. It's control, manipulation, and extortion of the free market well beyond any notion of fair competition.

Apple won 51+% of American consumers. Now it taxes all of the computing and commerce workloads they engage in.

Imagine if Tesla charged Starbucks money to drive you to coffee. Because that's exactly what Apple has been doing for the last decade. They've buttoned up every single industry and put them all under thumb.

Apple is taxing the internet, basically. (And Google's scary and hidden side loading isn't much better.)
Ironically, this wouldn't be an issue if your hated web3 was the defacto app store. Maybe Apple sees crypto as a game, and buying/selling/trading crypto on the Coinbase app is in-game purchases to Apple.
I actually contributed to Excalidraw, it’s a great project! They also use my ink (MIT licensed perfect-freehand library) for their pen tool. While tldraw mostly grew out of another project of mine (globs.design), I took a lot of inspiration from Excalidraw’s feature set. We’ve since caught up with eachother on a bunch of features (sticky notes, labels) and hopefully will continue to trade tips and features as separate open source projects.

The fertility rate today in the United States is inversely correlated with income. The effects are not minor, either. As far as I'm aware, there's not much subsistence farming going on in the United States.
What does "etc." mean?

Also - products which would not reasonably be produced with, say, "phtalate" - would probably not be labeled phtalate-free anyway. So one first needs to know which "X-free" labels to look for.

The more I read about Google the more I am convinced that the only reason it proliferated because it's an ad company. Google would've gone bankrupt in its preliminary phase if it was a company that added any real value.

Then I look at retail where there are several wholeseller adding a %, stores adding a %, drop ship sellers adding a percent

There was a documentary that showed the price of a chicken sold in a store and how much the chicken farmer makes vs the retail price and I can’t say the situation is wildly out of tune with retail or the big SAP/ERP consulting

Ya know, actually, this is pretty funny then.

Because I also have a lifelong issue that doctors have written off as psychosomatic, that only within the last 10-15 years have they finally reversed course on. That's too late to help my grandmother or my mother, though at least I can take advantage of it now.

So I've been on the exact opposite of side of the coin as you, and know full well the damage that comes from doctors writing off real issues as pyschosomatic, just because they can't figure out what it is. Which is so often what does happen.

So watching another person assert, with no basis and against current scientific evidence, that long covid is the same, was infuriating to watch.

I stand by my original comment, but believe we are both coming at this from an honest intent, and find it amazing that two people who have had such exact opposite and rare medical experiences happen to interact with each other via the internet.

Thanks for adding this - I considered to include it, but couldn't find a source stating that the technology was officially called DisplayPDF.

I think Apple's official term for the OS X graphics layer is "Quartz" and there's a short discussion about the use of PDF in Quartz on Wikipedia which states "Quartz's internal imaging model correlates well with the PDF object graph, making it easy to output PDF to multiple devices":

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_(graphics_layer)#Use_of...

This arstechnica article linked on the Wikipedia page gives some more details, but it was written in 2000, so many things might have changed since then:

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2000/05/mac-os-x-dp4/4/

I think it's reasonable to assume that Apple's Quartz code in OS X no longer includes any actual Adobe code, so this might have been sufficient to avoid the licensing fees.
And where exactly are those SoCs? I mean where are the M1-level chips? Forget M1. Where are A-level chips? They didn't even anticipate the switch to 64-bit on mobile devices, much less M1.

Yes, custom SoCs are nothing new. To pretend that M1 isn't any different from other "specialty SoCs" is delusional.
Does anybody at all use that library in production at scale, ever? Genuine question. Maybe they do?

I hate that ads are now seen as a necessary evil for funding free access to services. The money still comes from you, just through the purchase of products.

What's worse, if you pay for YouTube Premium or Kagi, you're effectively paying for your content twice. No wonder, poorer people can't afford that.

I guess you could frame it like this: "Company are overcharging us by insane amounts anyways, so at least some of that money goes back into something useful through ads."
Your comments in this thread were doing ideological battle on a classic flamewar battlefront. You even used the word "fighting" to describe what you were doing. Surely you can understand how lines like ""wokeists" have caused so much damage to this country" and "The community you love has done damage to [...] society" are flamebait?

If you get into back-and-forths with an opposing user around that kind of thing, you're perpetuating flamewar. This is clearly not curious conversation.

I like your suggestion about expected value, and I'm glad you noticed that rather obscure point of mine - it's one of my pets. However, there are many ways to lower the expected value of a thread, and flamebait/flamewar is just one of them. I think it's important to be specific.

Exactly. GIMP didn't have any actual improvements to offer, but they went out of their way to NOT make a PS clone, out of sheer pettiness and ego. Like, magic wand tool is called fuzzy selection or something? Why? Why introduce a point of possible confusion for no reason whatsoever?

Statistically, real threats are rare, but ambition and corruption are
common. Overwhelmingly, the purpose of censorship is not the protection
of national security, but the protection of individual careers. That's
not ideology, but mathematics. Because there are very, very, few true
national secrets, but a huge amounts of information that someone would
like to bury for one reason or another.

"Vegan men tended to have significantly higher testosterone levels than both vegetarians and meat-eaters (see graph https://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-plant-based-to-lower-ig...)"

https://nutritionfacts.org/2013/02/12/less-cancer-in-vegan-m...

"You know, there are men who don’t want to drink soy milk because they have an irrational fear of phytoestrogens—even though soy does not have feminizing effects on men. Yet they’re perfectly willing to drink cow’s milk, which has actual estrogen estrogens in it! Within one hour of the milk hitting their intestines, estrogen levels go significantly up, and testosterone levels go significantly down."

https://nutritionfacts.org/video/dairy-sexual-precocity/

"If you take men on a high-protein diet—”meat, fish, poultry, egg white[s]”—and switch them to a high-carb diet of “bread, vegetables, fruit, and [sugary junk,]” their cortisol levels drop about a quarter within ten days. At the same time, their testosterone levels shoot up by about the same amount. High-protein diets suppress testosterone. That’s why if you take men eating plant-based diets, and have them start eating meat every day, their testosterone levels go down, and actually some estrogens go up.

That’s why bodybuilders can get such low testosterone levels. It’s not the steroids they’re taking. If you look at natural bodybuilders, who don’t use steroids, 75% drop in testosterone levels in the months leading up to a competition. Testosterone levels cut by more than half; enough to drop a guy into an abnormally low range. It’s ironic that they’re eating protein to look manly on the outside, but it makes them less and less manly on the inside. And, from an obesity standpoint, in general, a drop in testosterone levels may increase the risk of gaining weight—gaining body fat."

We know from discovery in the various Google antitrust cases that Google has a pattern of behavior where they place barriers against others who attempted to offer their own app store. They talk a good game about allowing it, but their conduct is a different story.

>The lawsuit is effectively claiming that this openness is a facade, because while customers technically have the choice of where to get their apps from, Google’s business practices have prevented a viable app store competitor from emerging.

OnePlus reportedly informed Epic that Google was “concerned that the Epic Games app would have the ability to potentially install and update multiple games with a silent install bypassing the Google Play Store.”

Fully understand your pain.
When my contract expires in a couple of years I will apply to the biggest companies around me.

I'm in the IT sector, so I'll apply to any position in Barcelona, because I've visited and liked the city. My plan is to look at companies there and find LinkedIn contacts, if they are really hiring usualy they have referral bonus and that helps being acknowledged from the inside contact.

If that fails, I'll apply to all remote positions posible.

And if that fails I'll call my previous employer.

In your case, being a professor, I supose you could find some ITIL training, and then go to any process management position in companies above 1000 employees, they are always looking for smart people to understand their mess. They usually promote internally for things like this, so you'll have to contact their HR directly.
Or you can contact their ceo directly in LinkedIn, they are just normal people, usually with high prioritization capacity, so send them a "Hello, I'm a professor of X and I like to change careers, could you let me know if your company has positions that would be suitable to my skills?"

And hope for the best.
Gas fees are peer-to-peer transactions. This is like Apple deciding that all Venmo transactions should be subject to their 30% fee. Not only would it be impossible to implement given the existing infrastructure; it would be dumb.
I don't know man. I used to work on tons of PPC and early Intel Macs that ran OSX (before iPhone and all that). Those were pretty great machines, and the OS basically just was an OS. No shit software preinstalled on top of it.

The first real shit app was iTunes. And ever since then, the OS has just stagnated while they put more software in to sell music, apps, and cloud storage.
Wait what? This doesn't make any sense? If someone is fighting a cold, they exert no agency, yet it is typical in English to say "He/she is fighting off a cold". This is despite the fact that, in reality, it's the individual macrophages / immune cells doing the actual fighting. Or, a woman giving birth. At the end of the day, this is an involuntary process; there's no way someone can will themselves to stop it (as far as I know). Yet it's extremely typical to say "X gave birth". Saying a human is undergoing X biochemical process in an active voice in English does not imply agency at all.
