I don’t know much about California.

I’m just balking at the audacity of comparing Massachusetts to Texas and implying their comparable on the basis of their politics more so than their geography.
Every officer on the scene at Uvalde knew there was a shooter in the classroom. Gunshots had been heard by people on the scene. Eyewitnesses on the scene had seen a shooter entering with weapons. Children in the classroom were calling in from their phones.

If the only information police had was a phone call from an anonymous VOIP number, then they'd be comparable.

There is a lot of subjectivity in your conclusion.

Healthy diet for example is not a singularly defined term and depending on specifics can be argued to lower quality of life even if they improve health.

All crypto exchanges are banks, and shouldn't be called exchanges

Exchanges should be required to hold 100% reserves in the deposit currencies of their users if they want to be called exchanges, but that would require regulations to be enforced that don't even exist yetm
I think it's pretty clear that I'm not outraged, and you're actually putting out flamebait to stir outrage in each of your comments.
Attempted manslaughter is a federal crime? This doesn't sound right to me, as a (former) lawyer. I would think that special circumstances would be necessary for a homicide or attempted homicide to be a federal crime, which would explain why there might be a mandatory minimum.

> Tracking protection can and should be done at the OS level

How does the OS force an app not to disable functionality if you refuse to allow tracking?

>Canceling a Fortnite subscription is as simple via them as it is on any other storefront

Are we pretending that there is no such thing as a company that makes cancelling a subscription as difficult as possible?

>You can do that through your bank or credit card issuer for any fraudulent purchase

If you read the article linked above, one of the reasons Epic was fined half a billion dollars was that anyone who got their credit card issuer to reverse fraudulent purchases found that Epic banned accounts for that.

You seem to be ignoring reality here.
While I know what it is, it reads the opposite way for me - like, it's some sort of Windows running on Android
No. You take the compromised plaintext password, hash it using the same algorithm you typically do for your customers, then you check the hash for matches in your database of existing customer password hashes.

Excellent point. The unit conversions in OP are all in astropy, as well as projections into the many possible coordinate systems.

I was fine watching my out-of-market team in the evenings on whatever the non-live option was called (it had like 6 names while I was doing it). Prices kept going up though; when it hit $100 per season, I stopped renewing. I'm a baseball fan before I'm a football fan, so had to set my priorities.
Good. Maybe we focus now on the R&D that can actually improve people's quality of life rather than pander to their overblown fears.
Well, you can at least power space ships with it via the Orion drive. :)
My 40s have been way better than my 20s or 30s. It's not even close. The best part of your life does not have to be behind you.
> Just note that they’re not guaranteed to be called precisely on time, e.g. my “every 15m” CRON job will be called every 15m _at best_, in practice… twice per hour

Is the spread really that egregious? That's essentially a 50% failure to trigger at all, like I don't think you can call that 15 minutes so much as 15±10 minutes lmfao

IIRC AWS EventBridge is also not guaranteed to execute on the exact minute, but in my experience running a small job every 5 minutes only had about a 30-40 second delay at worst.
Except that the lack of anonymity in payments is one of the main features of blockchains. Which is it? Is digital cash a public ledger or an anonymous payment system?
There is a reason why it is named what it is: The Windows Subsystem for Android now runs Android 13 in beta https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34060390
I second this. I listened to the audiobook. I cannot recommend it enough. The depth of intimacy is unparalleled. It seems, to me, to be a brilliant and vulnerable satire of modern social rating system and social networks. The way I am near tears listening to some of the most private moments about this man's life, followed up by "I give Academic Decathlon 4 out of 5 stars" is a hilarious reminder that the rating systems we use online are so deeply detached from the experiences they represent.
Fashions will change and fade, and find fault with every word like grasping at straws to find something to be offended over.

I'm sorry, that term is now racist: grasping at threads.

I'm sorry, that term is now sexist: grasping at leaves.

Land isn't really a big driver of housing costs. The issue is housing where people want to live. Nobody is balking at the apartment rents out in the countryside, it's rents in desirable metros that people are talking about. The question is, how do you get more housing units in a fixed amount of land? The answer is higher density, and policy that allows the conversion of low density housing to high density housing.
HFR movies never worked on my eyes, and I'm the kind of person who can instantly tell when windows sets my monitor back to 60hz from 144hz.

It feels like the lower frame rate engages the imagination in deeper ways than HFR. The obvious gaps in information are filled in by your brain in subtle ways. Yes, some types of action are almost certainly made better in an HFR setting, but then all other action has to go along for the ride.

If the experience is interactive, then yes by all means - Give me the most FPS you can. But when I don't have control, slow those picture elements down a bit. Give my neural net some time to deal with each one so I can properly enjoy it.

1. Could a distributed language language really know what I'm using data for, i.e. if I put an object in an object store, is it global or not? Seems like a really complicated analysis. What if this happens across services? (Separate code bases)
thanks for explaining, that actually makes some sense (if you accept the premise that we should change words that people might be offended by).. but then don't you immediately run into the problem of deciding which addictions are real and which are trivial?
Android branding guidelines are very unlikely to matter at this point, given that it's descriptive use (not forbidden by trademark law in the first place) anyways...
No. They use rainbow tables: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_table
The same politicians that are laughing at the tech layoffs?

They don't care about job losses.
Taking issue with any word with the word "man" in it is pretty dumb. Specifically "mankind" they suggest using the word "humankind". So if everyone starts using this word eventually slang will shorten it to "mankind" which means the same exact thing anyway...
No. If I drive to a random house and start shooting at it, I don’t get to call that reckless endangerment. If I kill someone I sure as hell don’t get to call it an accident.

It does not matter if you think how is police operate is unreasonable, what matters is that what they do is well known and established, and the outcome is foreseeable.

Also, if your best defense is “this isn’t attempted murder, it’s just terrorism” I have questions.

You have no idea if that is true or not though.

I think you have a point, but on the other hand consider “stand-up meeting.” If my team included a person who used a wheelchair, I am highly confident that my team and I would not call our daily scrum a daily stand-up.
Doesn't that argument prove too much? In the past, people's lives were shorter and more full of misery. Every improvement we've gotten has been due to people rejecting your philosophy. Assuming one can live longer (without being frail and demented) why not?

It seems like if most people could choose, they'd prefer to have the mental and physical abilities of a 20-something while living as long as they wanted. Eventually, medical technology will get to the point where that is possible. Why not hasten such a day rather than let more people get old and frail? Yes, people will still eventually die, but living for 300 years in peak condition seems better than the status quo.
You know a society maybe unraveling when a duopoly of unreason competes for mindshare.
VATs operate at every stage of the supply chain. A sales tax is only applied at the point of consumption.
Well yes, if there are gunshots or similar sounds indicating urgent entry is needed then do so, otherwise maybe knock on the door. People die all the time because police don't intervene, there was even a Supreme Court ruling that found that police have no duty to intervene to save your life. The least they can do is not rashly toss an incendiary device through your window or into your child's crib[1].

> Never heard this type of pushback about Ancient Aliens, which is even more ridiculous.

That's odd, because "this type of pushback" is the only context in which I've heard of "ancient aliens".
Agreed that most of the solutions are still tough to implement in production. Plus, a lot don't have built-in logging, error-handling, notifications, version control, package management, etc. Those are the "gotchas" that you won't notice until things inevitably go wrong.

It's worth checking out Shipyard (https://www.shipyardapp.com). I'm the co-founder and designed it to be the easiest way to deploy scripts/workflows in the cloud. You can schedule any code to run our platform (native support for Python, Node.js, Bash) and build reusable templates.

Our free dev plan allows for 10 hours of free runtime per month which is plenty for most use cases. If you want more or need webhooks/API, that starts at $50/month.

Feel free to contact if you want to learn more. Email is in my profile.
Does Linux have the same branding guidelines? Because this started before Android.
Yeah why can't my phone or tablet do something simple like this.
Entirely needless bullying.
What? Wikipedia, the Oxford English Dictionary, and nearly every informal conversation I've ever had on the subject all agree that "free market" means free of restriction, not free of rent. In practice, of course, free of "restriction" means chock-full of business entities squatting on each and every rent opportunity, strip-mining the market for maximum extraction and paying off the political establishment to keep the hustle going. I would love to live in a world that believed in freedom from economic rent, but nobody with any power interprets "free market" in that way.

I hope that one day we can trust cops not to murder people based on anonymous phoned-in tips. Seems more rational than expecting random marginal people and the mentally ill to care about some draconian penalty for something they don't think they're likely to get caught for.

There is a specific difference between "not helping" (your words) and "repeatedly killing" (the quoted words). It's certainly not about being mean.

Google is under no obligation to help their competitors. When they use their competitive advantage in one market (online video) to actively thwart competitors in an entirely different market (mobile OS) -- that's the sort of thing that gets the attention of antitrust.

> meanwhile I'm still here waiting for my native Linux ports of Office and Halo?

As far as I'm aware, MS is not actively blocking efforts to get things to work in WINE and similar projects. So there's a difference there from your Google example.

And yet, MS _is_ under active antitrust investigation for their intermingling of gaming platforms and studio games exclusives, relating to their attempts to buy even more major studios.

The Nord Lead 3 did a great job of crossing this divide: it was a polyphonic, multitimbral digital synth, but every parameter had its own dedicated knob or button, with an LED ring showing the current setting. No menus, no modes, nothing hidden, everything right there to be touched; it just made you want to play.
The question is: why is it possible to place a 911 call without all that information being laid bare before the dispatcher and logged. There are extraordinary regulations on carriers for E911, and thus a means to impose that requirement.

if you are suffering from depression, you could also consider therapy, if that's a viable option

interacting with people in some way, specially family (if you have any left), is likely to improve your mood

you don't mention where you live, but given that you know English, if it's not something undesirable, consider teaching it, while having some sort of qualification/certification might be useful, what's important is that you know it to teach it, at least in a "getting people to talk" way

another job option that seems viable (at least to my mind) is becoming a teacher of what you studied

Of course it does. Doesn't matter where you are or what citizenship you hold. Github has to follow US laws.
"method of selecting a reference picture" sounds like an encoding patent, and that one was filed four years after the standard came out. I wouldn't worry about 2028.

It's harder to evaluate the blob of patents from 2004-2005.
> company dominating this specific market (Google) is being MEAN to Microsoft by not helping them out

Google is sp much more dangerous than mocrpspft ever was - they track near realtome location of billions of people. Theu have private data.

In its heyday, microspft had millions of computers, half of them werent even connected to the internet. Most were for business, and even domestic ones were usually on 3 hours a day for games or work. Peak of personal data was havong a few photos or assignment frok school. What were they going to do, steal your spreadsheet?

> meanwhile I'm still here waiting for my native Linux ports of Office and Halo?

As a developer I am waiting for all linux dudes to finish fighting it oit, but the drama has been going on for 15 years: numeroius Ui toolkits, wayland vs Xwhatever, some drama around repositories and flatpack, some drama around vendoring dependencies vs debianndevelopers supplying versions they choose, musl vs glibc, systemd, etc. You need to spend more effort on linux than you do on mac and windows combined.

This is why web and google has won, and sadly dektop apps are dying - endless infighting. And they have a way of praising it as innovation of alternatives, but havong 10 slightly different solutions is not innovation. Half of the battles seem to be ideological.
From Wikipedia: "Through the aid of the other Gunmen, they are able to regain control of the plane and just miss crashing into the World Trade Center with the airliner. This episode aired about six months before the actual September 11 attacks against the World Trade Center later that year."

For a residential install (10s of square meters, not thousands). I would still feel more comfortable laying down some concrete first to minimize the chance of spoilage from vegetation. Plus something cheap for elevation from any flooding (bricks, cinder blocks, etc).

They did get their money back, so that point still stands. They just happened to have their accounts banned for this.

Baby Pickle and the Negative Minus-One-Hundred Function
"Swatting" isn't a significant problem in other parts of the world because the result is super boring: The police knock on the door, ask some questions, and then leave.

It is only a problem in the US because the response itself is terrifying and often dangerous. Multiple people have died from "swatting" in the US[0].

"Swatting" should carry a jail term for sure. But police reform is a large component in solving the problem (and many other topical problems).

I looked it up, but this from Wikipedia put me off:

"Nevil Shute was displeased with the final cut of the film, feeling that too many changes had been made at the expense of the story's integrity. After initial collaboration with Kramer, it was obvious that Shute's concerns were not being addressed; subsequently, he provided minimal assistance to the production. Gregory Peck agreed with Shute but, in the end, producer/director Stanley Kramer's ideas won out. Shute felt that [SPOILER REMOVED] ruined a central element of the novel, that is, [SPOILER REMOVED]."

So I'm not going to bother. I'll leave the book's memory as it is.
The democrats obviously believed the story would be impactful or they wouldn't have spent time blocking it.

This isn't a partisan viewpoint. I'm not in the USA or attached to either party.
So the religious fanatics were right all along? I think the afterlife is actually the life after you realise there is no afterlife. Many never reach it.
