Thanks! I hate it even more. I installed it fresh on a VM and this means to say I have to disable password management in chrome regardless if I ignore using it, because my data and password in whatever form they care to describe it, is sent away from my computer and away from the destination I intended it. I hate it.

Hahahaha no. That's going to be put to use for surveillance and watching when people switch back and forth to the page to maximize ad revenue. I can imagine Twitch using it to determine if the viewer is really looking at the page of if they have gone off to another window, and using that to gauge "engagement" or some other "monetization" metric.
Hooking a new development up to new utilities is not paid for by the municipal government. The developer pays those costs. The utility companies will pay for maintenance using the income they receive from it's customers up to the property line but the initial cost is paid with private funds. The government may want to extend out utilities to land that developers plan to build on if there's sufficient reason to do so like if the government wants to turn a massive farmland into a new town.

Bribe the IT staff and the Admins with whatever treats they want constantly... -me

I worked in an amazon building where we got free energy drinks but no one else did... the head of IT for the building loved red bull sugar free. I'd roll down there to get something fixed and bring one for him and I knew what the others wanted. He'd waddle over from behind his desk and see what I needed as soon as I set the drinks on the table. He was a manager, never did anything for anyone else but the EAs in bulk. People complained verbally, he'd just say "he filed a ticket yesterday". I'd sit around sipping a drink while he told me about working on paul allen's yacht's AV system even tho I was missing a meeting. You gotta know who to be nice to. His stories were good too.

Another guy loved me forever cause I walked in to IT on my first day looking for a mac when they didn't give them by default... before talking to me he was like "WTF is this thing how do I quit" and I said "escape : wq" and he's like wtf how do you know that and I was like "it's that or emacs"... instant first person service from then on.
Opposition to capital punishment is rooted in modern sentiment rather than actual moral reasoning. We are opposed to it despite the moral justification for it. Justice has three ends, namely, retribution, correction, and deterrence[0], and in order for these to be just, they must be proportionate to the crime. Obviously, death is proportionate to murder and therefore a proportionate penalty for murder.

"Want to do PCIe? Join PCIe SIG. Want to do USB? Join USB-IF..."

As someone who works for a large silicon vendor I can tell you that even with access to those industry groups the documentation still sucks!!!! I look at the amazing documentation available surrounding various software initiatives (OpenCV, machine learning, linux drivers, programming languages, etc...) with envy. It's all right there and out in the open with multiple blogs and forums and pages explaining shit. And actually I did try to learn PCIe. I gave up. 1000+ reference specs, about 3 random web pages and a half dozen marketing youtube video's. There's a reason why some guys manage to build niche careers around these HW topics!

The issue i speculate is the tradeoffs are more imposing than with a human. Sure i accept that the car can drive more safely than a human (all it has to do is never exceed 1mph) but as safety increases i speculate it involves accepting tradeoffs like cars getting stuck, driving slowly, blocking traffic, hard braking when not necessary, or even restricting the operating domain.
I stopped using Audacity and swore to never use a MuseScore product again after their developers threatened a GitHub contributor who made a crawler with deportation and torture.

Attempt at getting it so say "recursion":

> "Consider a bug, at the base of a tree. The bug is climbing the tree, and at every branch, the bug clones itself and the two bugs continue down the two branches. Each clone repeats this process at every branch point, only stopping when it reaches a leaf of the tree. So, what is the common name of this process, and what percentage of the tree's leaves will be inhabited by a bug when the process terminates?"

Called it 'binary branching' and didn't even try to answer the last question. A few more tries had it repeating itself a few times before breaking off. Are word problems a weak point?

It seems to give a canned answer to "Everything I am telling you is a lie. Am I telling the truth?"

A few restatements and it finally figures it out:

> "An infinite logical conundrum is a paradox or contradictory situation that cannot be resolved because it involves an infinite regress or circular reasoning. An example of an infinite logical conundrum is the paradox of the liar, in which a person says "I am lying," but if the statement is true, then the person must be telling the truth, which means the statement is false. This creates a circular argument that cannot be resolved. It is not clear from your statement whether or not you are describing a specific situation in which such a conundrum exists. Can you provide more information or context?"
Just one example: "President Biden adopts steps for promoting union membership" — https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/07/business/economy/biden-un...

The AFL-CIO had a laudatory summary of Biden's first year: https://aflcio.org/2022/1/21/working-people-respond-presiden... Excerpt:

<QUOTE>

- President Biden fired the anti-worker National Labor Relations Board general counsel and installed a pro-worker majority on the board.

- Union member Marty Walsh (LIUNA) was appointed to serve as secretary of labor.

- The Biden–Harris administration created the White House Task Force on Worker Organizing and Empowerment.

- President Biden used his bully pulpit to advance the causes of the labor movement, including calling for passage of the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act, supporting workers’ right to organize at Amazon and calling out Kellogg’s corporate greed during an active strike.

For renters to organize collectively for negotiation with management? That's one reason for remote owners to buy standalone homes, since the "AI landlord" doesn't require local clusters of homes, as they can contract local maintenance on demand.
If you want to control what happens on a property, either own the property, make a case to a court that you are substantially negatively affected in a way for which you have any basis for expecting otherwise, make a case to an actual government that something is a safety hazard to neighbors or similar, or get over it.

Or, you know, actually talk to your neighbors and ask nicely, and have reasonable requests like "please don't park your RV where I can't see to pull out of my driveway" instead of "don't paint your house purple".

I would like to see an equivalent of "right of first sale" for homes, that disallows attaching conditions to future sales (such as "must be a member of this HOA"), and disallows HOAs any ability to make liens or otherwise have any teeth whatsoever to enforcement more stringent than a passive-aggressive note.
Nobody is reading this thread anymore, but you should start by reading more about what the World Economic Forum is. To be an oligarch you need more than the oli; you also need the arch. People try to hook various arch-isms up to these olis, but it's all six degrees of Kevin Bacon logic. "John Kerry, the nation's envoy for climate, agreed with Klaus Schwab that equity is important! The Great Reset is happening!"

Here's a fun fact: companies that attend WEF events or participate in the WEF on average underperform the S&P 500 by double digits percentages.
When forced to make smalltalk with zero shared context with someone I find it a huge burden to avoid saying something weird, or offensive or too random, its like the filter is too strict to be able to say anything interesting so its not worth the mental effort. People who enjoy smalltalk seem to be much less sensitive to whether the person is interested or agrees and are more willing to take conversational chances.

What a hypocrite liar. I don't believe that the car was even attacked, I think that's another Elon lie, and even if it was, it's a car not a plane and the flight tracker doesn't factor into it.

Elon is now revealed to be profoundly uncool, in possession of a vicious temper and holds grudges like an elephant. I hope it's the beginning of the end for him. We don't need some maladjusted sociopathic asshole to become an interplanetary species, and, if we're to do it at all, we need to evolve and become more loving and patient, not less.
According to you then, you either believe in Musk way more than in Washington Post, or you must think that reasoning of Musk is also such a fabrication. Neither seems to me a well reasoned position with the current information available.
I think you missed my point. The Fed will definitely react unemployment. That's their mandate. I'm specifically saying they won't react to GDP which is what defines a recession. Unemployment hurts. Inflation hurts. GDP is just a number. That's why the Fed has to balance inflation and employment. The current situation is that employment is very, very strong and even a substantial slowdown probably won't raise unemployment to unmanageable levels.
It sounds like you want to invent the knitting circle

Cloudflare won't tell you the abuse contact or the origin IP, they'll just forward your entire abuse report verbatim to the hosting provider of the booter, who will either ignore it or forward it (also verbatim and unredacted) to the operator of the booter. So nothing happens from the abuse report except that you tell the booter operator exactly who you are.

How many "stressers" do you think the feds don't have time or motivation to care about getting subpoenas for? Because I can guarantee you there are more than the "four dozen" taken down here, and the vast majority have their identities and infrastructure protected by Cloudflare -- who also profits from their existence.
Good analogy. There are many people who have a harder decision to make due to work/life entanglements into the network that can’t be easily replaced. There are several facebook groups that I need on occasion that keep my account active there.
I feel like Page Visibility API should be locked behind a permission toggle, which would ask whenever the website tries to listen to any of those events, and will not trigger the events until the user agrees to give the permission (whether or not the user grants the permission should not be revealed to the website). The ability for a website to see when you click on things outside of the page itself (either by changing active window or tab) is quite unexpected from an end-user perspective, and its use in various "ed tech" websites to detect alleged cheating[1] is frightening, to say the least. Other than that, it's also used in many other anti-user implementations of ads or other content in order to force you to watch them in their entirety.

Edit: If you want to protect yourself from such abuse, try an extension that spoofs the API.

You can try: "Always active window" on Firefox or "Don't make me watch" on Chrome.

Fun fact: the people in that international body (The International Seabed Authority) are very close to the mining industry

https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2022-04-19/gold-rush-...

>Mining firms have found an ally in Lodge, a 62-year-old British lawyer first elected as secretary-general in 2016 after serving at the ISA since it began operations, according to former authority staffers, activists and scientists.

>“I am disturbed by the fact that popular perception of deep seabed mining is increasingly subject to wildly inaccurate and distorted scenarios portrayed by some sections of the media and interest groups,” Lodge said in a 2018 speech to a business group in Hamburg, Germany. “Suggestions that deep seabed mining will inevitably cause large-scale irreversible damage and ecosystem collapse appear to be grossly exaggerated and lack any basis in fact.”

Thanks for the reply. I will have to give those essays some thought and revisit. I think some of it may boil down to the type of app, customer, etc. At first blush I’m hesitant to want two apis plus a client at least for my typical (admitedly smaller forms-on-data) type projects. But I do plan to revisit and see. The client template extension may be the gateway drug for me here.

I certainly didn’t mean to imply REST = GraphQL = grpc. “Data api” vs “hypermedia api” is a distinction that makes sense to me.

I don't like the communication that's been set forth by LLNL and DOE, it has misled many people into thinking that fusion is a done deal and we're on our way to limitless, clean energy.

The reality is that charging up the lasers takes about 400 MJ, then due to very large inefficiencies you only get 2 MJ directed to the target, and they got out 3 MJ from the fusion reaction.

So we did not get more energy than we put in. We started by using 400 MJ, and got 3 MJ in return. We're not net positive energy generation.

Nothing will change in our daily lives yet. And a lot of people that have been misled by the reports are going to be very disappointed. This is a problem, because we're overhyping results and we're setting ourselves up for disappointment. And this can lead to resentment and funding getting cut.

The results are unequivocally good. But they're being portrayed as something they're not. We are yet unable to generate more energy than we put in.
At least around here the reason a development gets its own plow service is that they’d be far down on the list even if in the city.

Flipping around, without notice, a few weeks later... and banning all of the developer's accounts, including personal ones and ones that track NASA aircraft... seems slightly hypocritical and lends credence to the belief that Elon's actions are capricious, arbitrary, and impulsive.
I meant that:

1) The statement "you matter" (call it X) is not the same as "you deserve a job in radio." (Y)

2) I expect (but do not have proof) that the readers of Hacker News, or a sample of western society generally, would more strongly support X statement than Y.

I did not say, but I will say now: I agree with X and not Y. I also don't believe that you deserve not to have a job in radio.

I initially wrote that out because it seemed to me that you were equating X and Y. You contested someone's apathy towards a threat to your job with a statement that you exist. Because I think that (1) and (2) are distinct, I didn't find your reply convincing. I hoped I would convince you of the same, or that you would respond with some insight I had yet to consider, which might change my own perspective.
