<< Now, of course, I understand that even Google can't reasonably be expected to provide free 24/7 customer support for the entire Internet.

See... for me that is actually an argument that they are way too big, because they are not able to properly service their existing customer base.
Jokes on this guy! Basically all NFTs are a scam anyway!
> They won't though, because end-users are not the customers of Google, advertisers are. You can betcha advertisers get excellent customer service.

Have you ever advertised on Google? I'm guessing not.

Go search on Reddit and other places for stories from people who got their Google Ads accounts banned, including advertisers spending millions of dollars a year, and see how much help from customer service they've gotten.

Excellent might not be the word that comes to mind after you've been through that exercise.
Yes, see interamt.de for open positions. You have to be fluent, I’m afraid, everything is done in German and you need to understand what’s needed and relay your own thoughts properly. There are many specific terms and processes and abbreviations
Is that true? The top two F150 trims are like 65k and 77k. I see tons of those driving around. Not to mention F250s and other big trucks.
I placed my first-ever order on the Google store last year for a Pixel phone. Then a FedEx employee left a voicemail asking suspicious questions about my package. Then my phone went missing. FedEx later said they had no record of an employee calling me and would "investigate". It took two weeks of relentlessly following up to get a replacement. FedEx was never able to locate my stolen/missing phone. Never order directly from Google and avoid FedEx at all costs.
> complex carbohydrates tend to leave the most LDL behind after running through the liver.

reduced my carbs, lost 15 pounds (I'm not obese to start with) LDL stayed super high. no decrease of any kind.

> Reductions in sweet processed foods would help the most there, not reductions in fats.

I dont eat sweet processed foods anyway, nope

> Exercise helps a good deal with the same problems too.

tried that, nope

what worked (dramatically) is:

1. cut out dairy

2. take statins
Do you have some links that support this theory? I'd be interested to read up on it.

edit: Specifically mentioning planes and their locations, I mean, not "extrapolating from cars to planes".
Sure use outlook.com or iCloud.com with own domain. I found gmail the best for my huge storage needs of mail, and takeout makes backups so much easier (iCloud is nearly impossible, Outlook seems okay but not as smooth).
Elon Musk temporarily suspends Twitter Spaces
It's utterly telling who gets banned as well.. shouldn't have to repeat it for the 1,000th time but of course he's free to ban anyone he wants.

The obnoxious thing is that he was so sanctimonious about prior bans, going so far to welcome outright back neonazis, insurrection planners, fake doctors selling dangerous covid 'cures', and on and on because those things weren't technically illegal -- but banning journalists for the act of journalism (so legal that it's a right literally enshrined in the first amendment!) after they reported on his ban of the stupid flight-tracking account?
> is combined with oxygen to form carbon dioxide

Isn't that some mass will be get converted to energy while burning? So the weight of the resultant CO2 will be less than the fuel burnt.
There are many interesting points, that maybe nothing special for NFTs, but I didn't know.

As someone with a distributed team, I try to visit each of my engineers in person at least once every 6 months. Being able to pick up a WeWork for us to work out of when I'm in town is really nice.
I speculate he's been taking a lot of amphetamines to work long hours and is currently in a state of mild psychosis.

I have a 13 year old Google account. I only added a credit card couple of months back to help out a friend because his Gapps access was blocked. My new year resolution is to find an alternative to Gapps so that I don't have to do "business" with Google on my or anyone else's behalf.
I don't need a prescription. In 15+ years once I'm in my 40s and my eye sight starts naturally deteriorating maybe I'll need reading glasses, but that's unpreventable.

I saw in another comment you were asking about side effects. There definitely are, and tbh if you're happy w/ glasses and they work for your lifestyle then more power to you. LASIK side effects from what I've read are most commonly really dry eyes and star burst effects from light sources at night. Seems a lot of people after going through PRK have bad night vision (which I'm experiencing), and moderate to severe light sensitivity, which I personally have none of. So yea, there are side effects that can be really bad, but for the most part people seem very happy with both LASIK and PRK.

I can certainly say PRK was one of my best life decisions, it's definitely been worth it to me because I hated wearing glasses and I do a lot of outdoor activities as well as Jiu jitsu, so I was basically the ideal candidate
I thought it almost seemed like a deep fake. Maybe there's some editing making it weird
I will never cease to be surprised when open source developers choose a license that says "Please, please please steal my code and contribute nothing in return" and then act indignant when companies steal their code and contribute nothing in return. If you are starting an open source project, the default license should be the AGPL, with the LGPL coming in second if you just care about making a useful library.

The GPL is not scary. It just provides you the means to enforce what everyone knows is basic decency in Free software: you get total control of the software, in return you release your changes, and provide your downstreams with the same freedom.
Are they meetings that actually need to be on track, or useless meetings that people to take a break and just hang out as a substitute for real breaks?

So if you speak highly of honey, you get funding from honey.com. If you don't, you get nothing. Now, if you rely on donations to pursue your research, wouldn't that skew the results in favor of honey?
Yeah, WTH. The Reddit thread is about a transaction involving money. Google can't do better support than ineffective, then incorrect, directions?

Furthermore, if Google is going to shove search, email, maps, Chrome, ChromeOS, Play Store, Android, etc, etc, etc, down our throats maybe they should be made to actually do a little customer service.
I was imagining it being a 'service' truck, particularly for grain farms (the kind of farm I have). They don't do much other than cart light things around and don't have to travel that far between fields, and often get towed there behind a tractor anyway. The problem is that nobody keeps a brand new truck as their dedicated service truck. If a good used market ever opens up, though...
Good point about terminology.

But then what makes software special is that you can also encode "techniques" in it.

Thus the exercise of trying to understand a program is also "technology"? :-)
I think Hacker News as a site has some glaring deficiencies. One of them is that it doesn't have the ability to group a bunch of posts into a topic that doesn't pollute the main page with more than one small link.
"Real time collaboration systems such as Microsoft Teams, Slack, Mattermost, Wire, Threema, WhatsApp and Signal are currently all closed proprietary systems - meaning they are walled gardens whereby all parties have to use the same vendor."

Signal is in this list. Isn't this false? The server and clients are here: https://github.com/signalapp
> > Out of curiosity, how did you come up with this solution?

> The author, dkozel, never came back to answer. I imagine they typed the solution on a 40% keyboard featuring unmarked keys and then rolled into the sunset on a Segway for which they had compiled the kernel themselves. Completely oblivious of their awesomeness and of how many people would later find solace in their prose.

Here's how I would have started to find the answer:

1. Open https://lxr.linux.no/, search for
"No bus number available for hot-added bridge"
2. Open the three files it finds.
3. ^F that same string in each file, then notice
that
https://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v6.0.9/drivers/pci/probe.c#L3336
is it.
4. Chase down `dev->bus->busn_ref->end`.
Er, well, this step is hard because `end` is
so generic.
5. git clone linux and use cscope to index it.
6. Search for assignments to `end`, filtering with
egrep for bus and pci.
7. Weed through it all until I find
https://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v6.0.9/drivers/pci/probe.c#L2964
8. Search for assignments to `pci_hotplug_bus_size`, find
https://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v6.0.9/drivers/pci/pci.c#L6882
9. Search for `pci_hotplug_bus_size` and also find
https://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v6.0.9/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt#L4267
which says:

hpbussize=nn The minimum amount of additional bus numbers
reserved for buses below a hotplug bridge.
Default is 1.

But @dkozel probably just knew the answer.

I do find it hard to believe that the default for this setting is 1 though!
I think your idea of limiting Slack is great. You can provide an alternative to be reachable for emergencies if needed.

Popped in to share this one, it has COVID data on my area while the Verily site doesn't seem to yet.

I've been using wastewater data to adjust my behavior since official testing and reporting is down and under-reporting cases. Detected COVID goes up, I reduce my exposure and remind my vulnerable loved ones. Detected COVID goes back down, I adjust my behavior accordingly.
Our stack is that Django + htmx + Alpine. I wouldn’t say htmx an unalloyed joy to use. However, it’s very good at what it does and stable.

Also, will you need to support an API product or a mobile frontend? Either of those could change the calculus in favor of React or something similar.

I wish there were a more stable frontend framework that didn’t require constant maintenance.
Wastewater facilities are almost always run by local government. I expect it takes time to get buy in for a project like this. I didn't see if there was a grant to cover the testing, but you at very least need a worker to package up samples and mail them to a lab.

Still, this is tremendously useful where there is coverage, and looks like enough data to make sampling type of conclusions. Hopefully we'll eventually see some kind of network effect.

For example, I'm in the NYC area - and Newark NJ has coverage. There is enough overlap that I expect flu and covid curves (including strains) to be close enough to be interesting.
Necessary, maybe, but as to its sufficiency, consider: "[t]he law, in its majestic equality, forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal loaves of bread".

Edit: never mind — I see now how the latter part addresses this potential objection. Well put!
The key for learning a profession is to dump as much knowledge as possible into your 'muscle memory'. there are many operations in emacs and vi that i can do when i want to, but i might not be able to pull up the key sequence to tell someone. Like a musical instrument, the key is practise, practise, practise.

I don't feel like i have proficiency in a language until i have forced myself to speed run a few projects in it. The ideas are important, but it is the ingrained habits that keep the code clean and consistent.

I mean if you don't want to spend so much time studying a given profession, of course. But the neural positioning of generating this text, or transform this text' is different than the neural positioning of 'should this call to this new to me gRPC server be blocking? Timeout? Retries?'

The latter takes thorough focus. the former can be done by muscle memory with practise, and the limit is more on how many new things your fingers can learn in a month, the total of learned things can be quite high.

Go into your Google account settings. Enable IMAPs. Use an IMAP client such as Thunderbird to download all your emails.

Create an account on a mail server elsewhere. In your Google settings, create an email forwarder to the new email address. Optionally use your IMAP client to push your Google emails up to the new email server. Optionally copy all your emails to local folders and back them up to USB SSD drives.

The new mail provider may have options to ignore the relay host in your spam rules should you wish to reduce the risk of emails forwarded from Gmail being flagged as spam. Get the Google relay host DNS names from your email headers.
My theory is that the average Joe on either side of the political spectrum is NOT on Twitter nor actively uses Twitter.
So if Twitter pulls the plug, what are the consequences for the general public?

IMO if Meta, Alphabet, Amazon, Uber, Tesla, SpaceX, Microsoft, Apple, Netflix, Intel, or any other big company pulls the plug it would affect the general public more than Twitter going offline.

Of couse it would be very bad for the employees and their families, but most consumers of the service would just move on.

In Milan, Italy their renting price are too expensive (550€/month + VAT for a dedicated desk) and their space are almost empty.
For context, an house in same location costs 30€/sqm/month.

Well I was calling you delusional if you think your average person cares about Elon's shenanigans enough to jump ship to a platform no one uses. So it was solely a comment on you.

Admittedly this is a little bit of a nitpick (and I agree with your general sentiment re: VSCode devs benefitting from prior art) but for clarity's sake — Atom v1.0.0 was released mid-2015. TypeScript v1.0 was early 2014 and had been usable since 2012 pre 1.0.

They were very much contemporaries of one another, though obviously TS popularity has surged since 2017/2018.
Does this just mean that they added 51 additional bus numbers?

I am curious if the kernel could just bump this number up, especially if Thunderbolt is getting more popular.
I think you're commenting on real trends (economic and political) in the ongoing post-Reaganomics/post-Thatcherism era

However, you greatly overstate your case by saying an individual person's politics can be "revealed" "just" based on that alone, or that the difference between parties is "just" equivalent to two decades.

Being able to blend between prompts and attention weightings smoothly from a fixed seed is definitely a fantastic and underexplored avenue; it makes me recall "vector synthesis" common in wavetable synthesizers since the '80s as discussed here[0]. I feel we are just a couple of months from seeing people start using MIDI controllers to explore these kinds of spaces. Something could be hacked together today, but it will be interesting to see once the images can be generated in nearly realtime as the controls are adjusted.

I just saw a documentary (in German) from 2003 about its construction. There is an interview with a guy from the American (Colorado) company which built the tank who boasted that only two companies in the world could build it and the other one declined because they deemed it impossible. Other interesting facts were:

- 15 segments of acrylic glass

- 12 segments for the outer cylinder, 3 for the inner

- all segments worth 4 million EUR

- 200 wall thickness

- shipped in a steel construction

They did not say it, but from the video it looks like the segments were assembled in at the destination but not in their final location.

EDIT: I misunderstood, looks like the outer cylinder was assembled in-place, the inner one on-site and then lifted inside.

For completeness, here is the video, but it is in German:

Delay in settlements shouldn't matter in the case you described, and the specific problem you're describing is solved by using limit orders rather than market orders (of course, the order might not fill in that case but that's the risk you take with using limit orders).

The problem with real time for everyone is that the tech required to do that is complicated and it's not necessary for most people.
The White House and DOD still use handwritten routing slips at the highest levels to track memo packages, sign-offs, comments, and orders given in response.

Yes, they are NFTs, but unlike others of these digital art pieces, the people foolish enough to purchase a Trump Trading Card don’t actually own the things they paid for, at least not in the traditional sense.

The fine print reveals that 10% of every secondary market sales goes right back to Trump and his fellow grifters."

I hesitate to mention my own program. IMHO the first step to dealing with ADHD (or ADD as it is now often called) is to understand what it is. ADHD and ADD tell us nothing useful. Consider instead: difficulty organizing and sustaining a directed effort. That's 3 distinct issues you can address by changing your behavior. One way to do this is with Epiphany Workflow on the Apple App Store. While I have positioned its product page for bright college students in academic trouble, I find it useful to define, organize, and review my progress in my non-academic life. Moments ago I temporarily reduced its price to free. Perhaps you will find it useful.

I think that's a sore underestimation of the support costs Google would have to cover. It looks like support costs average around $4/call. (https://www.google.com/search?q=how+much+does+the+average+su...). Google has approximately 4 billion users (https://www.google.com/search?q=how+many+users+does+Google+h...). So, if you allowed for one single support call per user per year, Google would be footing $16B annually.

In general, I don't think you can expect free support for a free product. I do think businesses should let you buy support for any tier of product, both as part of a subscription and on a one-time basis.
