It's definitely possible (I do it all the time) but it requires framing.

If I have to, I will say something like "It seems to me like we're not eye to eye on this important topic, and I want us to be in sync. Would you mind if I ask you a few questions to understand where we are disconnected so I can improve my own thinking here?"

I literally say this stuff, and I've never had anyone say "no, I'd rather not get in sync w you on this." So I contextualize it, we work through it, and usually it takes <5 minutes for me to figure out where the other person's head is different from mine.

Then you figure out what to do about it, which may be another conversation (you may also learn that their reasons are good so you end up being persuaded by them which is also great)
Fuji have all of that functionality over WiFi on their X series.

...Only, as the parent comment says, it barely works, and the UI to get to it is awful, and the WiFi transfer speed is ridiculously slow.
It's not just practicing leetcode though. It's also putting your considerable skills to work for an entity that will funnel the world's attention into advertising (Google), create platform lock-in and undermine repairability (Apple, Nvidia), successfully lobby governments against use of open standards (Microsoft), etc.

All companies pay you to put its interest before your own interest, but some companies are much worse and much more effective at working against the greater good than others. I'm not selling out to those just to add another few years to my already very achievable retirement.
Its barely working. Maybe 5-15 hours a week. The income is actually surprising though, can range 5k-15k a month
You don't have to cart around a big-ass DSLR with multi-pound lenses. My pen-f (2016) runs circles around an iphone pro, and it's pretty small and light for a "real" camera (it can fit in my coat pocket).

> Cameras usually take longer to start and get ready to take a shot (or run out of battery sooner if you keep them on all the time) and have slower autofocus.

This is not true, especially if we're talking about DSLRs (as opposed to mirrorless). I used to have a Canon 40D. I never turned it off. It would stay "on" in the bag for however long I didn't use it. It consumed next to nothing when in "sleep" mode, but came out of it ready to shoot at the touch of a button. Autofocus was plenty fast, too. Ditto for a friend's Sony A700 (same vintage APS-C DSLR). I understand current mirrorless cameras have much better autofocus, even the mid-range ones.

Even my pen-f (mirrorless) wakes up or turns on much quicker than you can slide around your finger on an iphone. Autofocus isn't great in low-light, though.
It's funny how fast and well life expectancy improved in that era. Sure sperms are getting less in numbers but at least people don't follow sceptics with narrow mind for centuries so we actually see improvements. Sorry but, people with this mindset would still make us live in caves, literally.
Just pointing that all software is exploitable. And punishing the application developer might not be right if the vulnerability is caused by a lower level dependency. For example, log4j.

I agree if there's a high social cost to a breach then the government should punish those involved. Also, the security of your software depends on your threat model and which threats are in scope and you're willing to invest in protecting against. The tradeoff is ease of development and velocity. So maybe such laws will incentive this process differently, and maybe it's a worthwhile change.

I look at computing as a big experiment. Personally, I am very careful to use trustworthy services and don't depend on software for anything critical (besides banking, but luckily FDIC). Most people don't take the same precautions and rely very heavily. It's obviously critical infrastructure at this point. Maybe it's time to stop thinking of it as an experiment, and maybe these laws make sense.

I don't like the concept for emotional reasons; to me it's sad and signals another step towards the end of the golden age of the internet.

Yep, textbook projection.
The Allies also had spies sabotaging the Nazis' nuclear program, which may certainly have prevented WWII from being a lot worse.
There’s precedent for that in illiquid alternatives - several publishers had internal investment arms that grew into distinct GPs.
Wouldn't that create an incentive to run your employees so hard they develop health issues? No skin off your back, just get a new employee when the first gets permanently broken. I'm cheeky, but I think that is one of the rationales for having sick leave at all.

> Surely someone, somewhere feels like this

That would be my family when I was growing up. A lot of their beliefs are centered people should work for a living. If someone can't work, they are lazy and working people shouldn't have to pay to support them.

My parents have since moderated their stance on this but my dad still believes this is the way things should be. :(

I've moved away from home and very much do not share their view and don't associate with people like this. I still see this belief often enough to believe it's pretty dang common in the midwest among the lower middle class.

Edit:

I should note, everyone I've talked to do make exceptions for a few people they know.

Most of them are otherwise good, kind people. They abhor the idea of anyone else getting something they haven’t earned.

That actually comes in useful as soon as you write library code, but seldomly in application code (at least mine): You'd use protected for internal methods intended to be used, and probably overwritten, by children classes. This allows defining internal extension points to customise the behaviour of a class.

Take a response caching middleware, for example, that uses a CacheStrategy class to control the behaviour of the cache. There's an interface, so we can depend on it in the middleware:

interface CacheStrategyInterface {
public function shouldCache(Request $request, Response $response): bool;
}

and there's a default implementation, shipping with the library, which works for 90% of use cases:

class DefaultStrategy implements CacheStrategyInterface {
public function shouldCache(Request $request, Response $response): bool {
if ( ! $this->isMethodCachable($request)) {
return false;
}

return $this->isSuccessful($response);
}

// This method can be modified by user code: Maybe they implemented
// an API with a `"success": false` in the response body, despite
// the status code? There's no way to know that, let alone provide a
// configuration switch for every possible failure condition in user
// code implementing our middleware.
protected function isSuccessful(Response $response): bool {
return $response->isSuccessful() || $response->isRedirection();
}

// This method shall not be modified: Whether an HTTP request may be
// cached is defined by specification, not implementation.
private function isMethodCachable(Request $request): bool {
return $request->isMethodCacheable();
}
}

Users may extend this implementation, and override the `isSuccessful` method with their own implementation used to check whether a response handled by the app was actually successful (and thus should be added to the cache).

This method isn't significant from the outside of the class - it would add needless weight to the API contract of our library. But still, there's value in allowing users building their own caching strategy to override it with their own checks. Such an implementation might look like this:

class CustomStrategy extends DefaultStrategy {
protected function isSuccessful(Response $response): bool {
return $response->body('success', false) === true;
}
}

There's no boilerplate here, no need to reimplement the whole shouldCache method, when only a single, granular, override is enough. And that is why protected can be helpful :)

(This was taken from a Laravel library I maintain. If you want to check the full example, see here: https://github.com/matchory/response-cache/blob/master/src/S...)

PHP, on the other hand, is full to bursting with abbreviations and acronyms which are entirely unnecessary:

perl_regex_foo() might even be better than "preg" whereas everyone knows what regex means but "preg" isn't obvious at all. At this point who cares that it came from perl it should really just be regex_foo()
Among my devices I have a phone that unfolds into a tablet and has 3x optical, 0.6x optical, and 10x AI-assisted zoom that can take pictures like this (https://imgur.com/a/ITwdZSO) with a total 30x zoom from literally 20 miles away.

(Edit: for those curious, it's Samsung's "AI Super-resolution" tech, which I expect works similarly to AI upscaling tech e.g in Adobe's products. The phone I'm using in this example is the Fold 4)

Artificial bokeh (like in Portrait mode on an iPhone) is getting better and better. It went from looking cheesy to somewhat natural in only a few years.

Breaking off a slice of that wealth, which by your own admission, is limited. And so what happens to people who can't?

The additional problem to this framing is that anywhere between $0-[amount dictated to provide a stable life, including inflation] is a hellscape and has proven extremely difficult for majority of people to escape from for a variety of reasons.

­> Okay, so there is a decent amount of scientific evidence suggesting there could be a link.

That's the thing -- there isn't. At best, it's a working theory that is equal to any other theory.

Saying that something is dangerous means that we should err on the side of caution, it does not mean that we should not discuss it. Plenty of scientific topics are dangerous and require a close cooperation with an ethics board to advance.

To name a few theories that are ongoing: genetics, endocrine disruptors (doesn't single phtalates), childhood experience, parasites, neurodevelopmental disorders, relationship with autism spectrum, etc.

None of the above is winning the race. The current leading theory is that the gender identity, including cisgender identities, is complex and a mix of genetic, biological, environmental, and cultural factors.

The WHO describes a disease as "any harmful deviation from the normal structural or functional state of an organism, generally associated with certain signs and symptoms and differing in nature from physical injury".

The trans identity is not a disease, it is not something to be fixed. In the same way that homosexuality is not a disease. Both have been on a road of depathologization, they are not harmful but regular variations of the human experience.

I'll close with a question: how can phtalates be the cause of gender incongruence and gender diversity when communities that falls under that umbrella exist since before the use of plastics? See: "Hijra", "Mukhannath", "Mahu", "Two-spirit", "Fa'afafine", "Muxe", "Bangala", "Mamluk", "Xanith", etc.

In case of DSLRs, and their mirrorless offspring, the purpose and the target audience's need is to capture light as good as possible, using a combination of precision electronics, optics and mechanics, to be edited later. They threw in some basic editing functionalities, various image formats and what not, but those are not mission critical.

Smartphones are lacking the optics, sensors and some other things a real camera has. As a result, they are still a far cry from replacing mid-level and up cameras. Smartphones, as the article points out, are perfectly sufficient for the compact and point-and-shoot market, and as a result killed it / took it over.

And heck, the ergonomics of Nikon blow any smartphone / app way of setting up a camera out of the water ever since before Nikon got serious about DSLRs.
Mind-blowing that comments here believe it's a cost-cutting measure as opposed to the result of changes in internal priorities.

Both of these can be true. All I’m saying is it makes more sense to focus on the biggest issue for the biggest impact.

Average credit card debt is roughly on par with pre-pandemic levels. Dipping during Covid is probably an artifact of the govt stimulus (speculatively).

Agree, and furthermore, I'd argue that the blue "Third Way"[1] ushered in by Bill Clinton in the US is what hugely screwed labor, and 20 years later leads to the election of DJT.

Why can't Biden/congress make the agreement that the unions want and ratify that? There are multiple ways to avoid the strike; I don't understand why this has to be on ownership's terms. Long term, (or at least in 2024, which is about as long term as we get in American politics anymore) this is going to let team Red claim to be the pro-worker team.

Wow, I was unaware of the 7% figure. And thanks for this article too, it’ll make for good reading later.

I’m certainly in favour of exchanging saturated fat for canola. I believe it was Finland where they made a big push to use canola rather than butter and the health outcomes seemed significant. There were confounding factors, but nonetheless, it was clear that a reduction in saturated fats yielded better life expectancy and lower rates of heart disease. The results were actually in line with what prior research indicated. Finland went from a lowest life expectancy in the world to one of the highest over decades, likely in part because of that transition away from dairy fats.

In that sense I think canola is amazing. I personally avoid both (of course it’s impossible to do so 100% of the time), but I fully support people choosing relatively healthier options.
I would bet largely recreational use. See a lot of horses in Portola Valley and Woodside, and a few scattered in rural areas between San Jose and San Francisco, though it tends to larger numbers on a few plots and a couple of ranches specializing in either equestrian training or long time horse housing, and one never sees a single horse on smaller plots, most people who have enough land for one horse will have multiple for companionship to each other. This was also true when I lived outside of Houston a few decades ago. Working horses are pretty rare except for carriages meant for tourists and law enforcement anywhere close to urban or suburban areas.

Statistically speaking, yes. We have a sample size in the tens of millions that demonstrate this fact. A large majority of your views on right and wrong are based on the society you grew up in.
