Maybe you don't mind me asking.
I have a small hole in my top-loading washing machine's rubber seal and I have been wondering whether it could be fixed (a new seal costs 100$ and it'd feel nuts to throw it away for environmental reasons alone). I know there are rubber glues, and I have made tests with one, but the question is can they be used inside a washing machine. Does anyone know (a solution to this problem)? The hole is 4cm x 1cm.

Edit: As a side note I have wondered also whether I could use two pieces (of metal, let's say) that I'd screw/press together tightly to prevent the leak. Does that make any sense?

It it still a problem that backup your passkeys for other platform. Android seems allow you to store passkeys in third-party provider in the future. (https://developers.google.com/identity/passkeys/supported-en...) On Apple you can only share passkey between the Apple devices. (https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2022/10092/?time...) On Windows you cannot even manage your passkeys. But you can add multiple passkey for single account.

It might confuse people that passkeys is design as "a password replacement" (https://fidoalliance.org/passkeys) but it also can be a FIDO2 as additional authorization method. Once you setup the FIDO2 PIN for YubiKey, you have to enter the PIN every time at registering your key. Which makes me annoying and reset my YubiKey to delete the PIN.

Although Windows, Android, iOS and macOS all implement the passkey. But Google and Apple account does not support passwordless login. Microsoft still using their own implement of passwordless login. Recently Apple announce that they will support to use hardware key for two-factor authorization. (https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2022/12/apple-advances-user-s...) It looks like Apple have no interest at either passwordless login and supporting cross-platform passkey for Apple ID.

In the specification, it provides multiple algorithm choices for website developers. (https://www.iana.org/assignments/cose/cose.xhtml#algorithms) But Android, iOS and macOS only support ES256. Newer Windows support ES256 and RS256. Older Windows only support RS256. EdDSA is only supported by YubiKey.
> Ok, so I'm curious about this place where you live where most restaurants don't accept cash

This is in Sweden.

> Legal tender laws say that cash must be accepted as payment for all debts.

Yes. But those apparently aren’t absolute and non-negotiable. The Riksbank is actually concerned about this, because it’s affecting the ability for the economy to function in a crisis, as well as the ability to make anonymous transactions, so there might be changes to this coming.

(In English:)
https://www.riksbank.se/en-gb/payments--cash/payments-in-swe...

But basically today no, there is nothing forcing any business to accept cash today. And as cash use dwindled, the cost of cash handling ballooned to the point where it’s worth swallowing the card fees over paying for cash management. There is also a very widespread cell phone transfer system both for free instant transfers between individuals and for payments. So it’s a widely accepted convenience. Cash is one of those systems now that everyone agrees should remain for privacy and resilience reasons but few are ready to use it. Forcing everyone to accept cash would mean having lots of cash handling expenses (cash registers etc) but still likely almost no cash in circulation. It’s part of the reason the riksbank is eying a CDBC with privacy features.

And yes if you travel to Sweden and order a meal at a restaurant you’ll probably always get away with cash if that is all you have (that is - they’d sort it out but in certain places it might be a bit awkward). But if you asked first they might say they “prefer card”. But pre-paid situations (e.g ordering a coffee to go) will often show a no cash sign.
The opposite is always true, you’ll never need cash. If you take a taxi it’s card only, nearly no transactions between individuals (used goods, babysitter, beggar(!)…) are cash either.

In total though, the death of cash isn’t that widespread 8-9 of 10 retailers still accepts cash. It’s mostly in smaller shops, cafes and similar services you don’t see it (and taxi have been cash free for more than a decade).
(In Swedish)
https://via.tt.se/pressmeddelande/9-av-10-svenska-handlare-t...

However, that a retailer accepts cash doesn’t mean it’s convenient to use. For example in a large grocery store a small
number of checkouts might accept cash meaning you’ll be waiting in line to pay with cash - so few will.
You can do better. "hello, are you available?" creates false urgency and stress.

Use "Hello, not urgent, please ping me when your are a available for a live chat. I have a complicated question about $topic."
I don't need my YubiKey just at work. I need it with me all the time regardless of whether I am even wearing clothes.
Yes, it is often referred to as a "loyalty tax". Auto insurance companies purportedly count on it to increase their profits.

And speaking of salaries, I saw fellow engineers that came and went from tech jobs, staying perhaps about a year at each. I didn't have the self-confidence or stress-tolerance to do the same but they always seemed to make bank doing this — getting a larger compensation with each jump.

I mean, its not all that common. I don't get checks that often, almost everything is handled electronically. But checks are still a way to distribute money physically that isn't cash, so it serves some purpose.

Most Americans (especially those under 30) do not own a checkbook and don't know how to write a check. That is part of why this scam works. 20 years ago Checks were common enough that every adult understood that Check's aren't real money and people would be more cautious until it clears.

But the fact that now everything is instantaneous, Checks are maybe the last exception to that. So someone with no knowledge of checks might assume that it is "real" money. I think few people understand the differences even between a cashiers check, a personal check, and a money order.

Luckily Banks are more aware of these scams and tellers have been trained to ask A LOT of questions about wire transfers before executing them. It sounds like in the posted article, that OP actually got a warning about this from the banker how this is non-reversible. But again, even OP admitted that he had never completed a wire transfer before. I've only ever made 2 wire transfers in my life (and I'm 36) and both were to buy a house. Few Americans have complete a wire transfer and probably don't understand the implications of it either.

So I think this scam actually preys and relies on the fact that little knowledge exists of wiretransfers and checks.
Exactly, in my experience, it's actually an error made by native speakers but not by ESL speakers. So its vs it's would actually not be a red flag.
> there are 14 Vice-Presidents of the European Parliament in total

Of course. First rule in government spending: why have one vice-president when you can have 14 at fourteen times the price?
We’re talking about Europe. Owning a car is a quality of life feature, not a requirement here. Food, on the other hand, is a necessity.

So, what's the answer?
President of USA are known to bomb civilians. And still they get re-elected and even some people give them donations that is bribes to support their murderous tendencies. And nothing is being done about this. No death penalties for people involved. No one is spending rest of their live in jail. Or being prosecuted and judged by jury made of peers of victims.

I think there is an emotional cost in receiving a work-related message that only says "hello".

tbf bad grammar is not unusual when dealing with remote teams. The gmail is a bigger giveaway (but again, I've done business with big corporations via gmail addresses where it's just easier to use a personal address than get IT to sort remote access or a mailbox big enough to handle attachments...)

"We're mailing you a check, now please send the money to someone else" is always a red flag. In the rare cases someone doing this isn't scamming you, they're probably using you to avoid taxes or breach spending guidelines or something else unfavourable to you instead...
Is ChatGPT a 'virus that has been released into the wild'?
I’ve seen colleagues share this or link to it in their Slack status. It feels a bit… odd to me.

Yeah it’s maybe a bit annoying when people do this, but does it really need a whole campaign website? Not everyone is going to communicate in exactly the way you like.
I have a subreddit dedicated to a specific programming topic, and I moderate it so that the intelligent, interesting, insightful, and empathetic members continue to participate and aren't driven away by trolls and low-effort content.

> Were people as upset then that it took so long?

Yes. Yes they were.
Exactly, and each system doing something different from standard AT&T V7 Unix did so because they thought something was broken. And they weren't entirely wrong. Yes, most people don't use Plan 9, or Hurd, or Minix, today, but we don't use V7 Unix either. Unix/Linux evolved, and it it didn't do so in a vacuum isolated from these other systems but took things from them that turned out to be improvements.

That is utterly ridiculous in the case of a car. If that was any concern whatsoever, then the dealer would say "let me drive you to my bank" and accept/deposit it there, which is a very, very common practice when seller is concerned with authenticity of the notes.

It's not an option in low value transactions like restaurant bills but then the risk there is low.

I know there are some places that choose not to accept cash payments to avoid cash accounting risk. That's cool, their choice I walk away... without paying them if they didn't disclose no cash policy clearly up front.

I know you guys are tired of ChatGPT but

> I have this implementation of the uxn virtual machine that has 32 instructions, how can we add a few more instrucions do implement memory pagination? (code here)

To implement memory pagination, we can add a few instructions to the existing set of 32 instructions in the uxn virtual machine. These instructions could include:

1. PAGE_IN - This instruction would be used to load a specific page of memory from the underlying storage device into the virtual machine's RAM.
2. PAGE_OUT - This instruction would be used to save a specific page of memory from the virtual machine's RAM to the underlying storage device.
3. SET_PAGE - This instruction would be used to set the current page of memory that is being accessed by the virtual machine.
4. GET_PAGE - This instruction would be used to retrieve the current page of memory that is being accessed by the virtual machine.

These instructions could be implemented as follows:

#define PAGE_IN(x) { u->page = (x); u->dev[0x0f] = 1; }
#define PAGE_OUT(x) { u->dev[0x0f] = 1; }
#define SET_PAGE(x) { u->page = (x); }
#define GET_PAGE(x) { x = u->page; }

int
uxn_eval(Uxn *u, Uint16 pc)
{
...
switch(instr & 0x1f) {
...
case 0x1a: /* PAGE_IN */ PEEK(a, pc) PAGE_IN(a) pc += 1 + bs; break;
case 0x1b: /* PAGE_OUT */ PEEK(a, pc) PAGE_OUT(a) pc += 1 + bs; break;
case 0x1c: /* SET_PAGE */ PEEK(a, pc) SET_PAGE(a) pc += 1 + bs; break;
case 0x1d: /* GET_PAGE */ GET_PAGE(a) PUSH(src, a) break;
...
}

Hazardous working conditions is described in the report: "Chronic occupational diseases receive less attention, because most are not detected until years after workers have been exposed to toxic chemicals, and because occupational illnesses often are misdiagnosed and poorly tracked" [1] The context here is the deaths of migrants working on construction sites for the World Cup. On site. 14 deaths/daily is a more comparable number. [1]

Also, you cited a report by the unions, for the purpose of promoting workplace safety. There are no such champions for migrants working in Qatar.

[1] - https://aflcio.org/reports/death-job-toll-neglect-2020

> if you scale it to the population of Qatar

That's incorrect way of scaling, since the majority of deaths in Qatar are migrants from countries such as the Philippines, Bangladesh, India or Pakistan.
It's hilarious how some commenters are concerned about bird poop, when fact of the matter, birds die by the thousands each year in California alone either mistaking solar farms for lakes and attempting water landings, or by dying by fire in panels' collective solar flux.

This type of solar farm is doomed to spend that money saved in either prevention and/or cleanup and repair.

Elon Musk Defends His Child Submarines – Chapo Trap House – Episode 228
This reminded me of a recent experience. I ordered a budget, homage Scout Knife, based on the Aitor Gran Capitan "Spanish Army Knife" pattern (produced sans corkscrew of course, which made me chuckle since I'd been a bit of a rebellious scout myself). The knife arrived and the scales promptly began to detach after some vigorous sharpening.

I was surprised to remove the scales and discover they were glued on, smooth plastic to smooth metal. (The factory glue was amber colored, bubbly, and rubbery, with a pizza-cheese effect when pulled cold)

I knew it was a budget tool, but somehow expected at least basic friction-fastening at the metal rivet points. Instead, there was this glue on the scales' inner plastic lattice work, plus some friction pressure around the scale edges.

I mixed up some epoxy, which as I was raised is something of a knife hobbyist's friend. I still have a zero-tang carving knife my dad made by epoxying a Victorinox blade into antler.

Just as I was getting materials ready to sand plastic and metal, I noticed the epoxy mix was already in the advanced stages of setting!

Turns out I had purchased "4 minute set time" epoxy from PC Epoxy. And it had been nearly that long since the mixing. Instead of my usual dilemma of waiting for things to set, the situation was suddenly more urgently coming together.

Usually I prepare surfaces with plenty of time left in the curing, so personal experience had led me astray on account of not typically needing to read the epoxy product label closely. I'd never seen 4-minute epoxy at the store before.

So, I really hope my unsanded but hastily- and liberally-coated surfaces hold together OK for a while.

Setting aside the almost impossible feat that every business could collude to arbitrarily double their profit margins, even if your assumption is granted, it would ultimately have no effect on consumers as a whole.

So, assuming businesses are more profitable, they ultimately have 2 things they could do with that extra profit:

1. Hoard it and do nothing with it

2. Invest it

In the case of 1, doing this is tantamount to taking money out of circulation (i.e. lowering supply). When the supply is lowered then everyone else’s purchasing power increases which is a benefit to them.

In the case of 2, investing it, either by starting new businesses or loaning it, means that they are effectively redistributing that money to others in the form of wages. Which is beneficial to workers who also happen to be consumers.

Last Writer Wins is not the most compelling use case for CRDT because if those fruits were denormalized into Postgres rows, you'd already have the behavior described. A more interesting example, might be if both users were inserting a new fruit, one at the beginning and one at the end. What should the sequence of fruits be after that? Likely a list with both new fruits included. But it depends on the domain and use case.

In general, Sequence CRDTs seem to be the most difficult and most interesting area of continuous research. In my own work, I've implemented a sequence CRDT to create a distributed log of events across users that then (because the order is guaranteed to eventually be the same for each device) can just be reduced to whatever data structure you need. It means, we end up with one CRDT to rule them all and then can just write the "conflict resolution" in simple term with the business logic.

"Starter" appears to have more dynamic/active connotations, where initiates and terminates has those same meanings but also seems to have a passive meaning matching terminator.

You don't even really need to tile your yard with solar panels. Depending on location, you could be self-sufficient(ish) with 10 kW of solar, 25kWh of batteries, and a 10 kVA generator for cloudy weeks.

Total cost is around $40k.

However, unless you're rural or somewhere with poor grid reliability it's probably not worth the expense of being off-grid. Generally speaking, due to generous feed-in tariffs you would be (financially) better off staying connected to the grid than spending the additional money required to handle periods of cloudy weather.
