i neither trust nor have sympathy for anyone in the situation. i guess its because any inter-business negotiation / transaction should be assumed to be hostile since its generally close to a zero sum game, or partially one. you are trying to buy some goods / services to then sell for a profit, or you are trying to sell some goods or services for a profit that you already made. its the same as flipping something at a yard sale- sometimes you get screwed, and its basically always your fault. i guess your post reads like you think you are a well behaved consumer buying stuff at a retailer with good customer service. which is an impossibly naive or deliberately false point of view. and of course, the fact that your whole goal of writing these posts was to sell the coffee, and it worked, makes your aw shucks routine all the more suspicious. i have been screwed many times in the world of manufacturing, no one ever complains like this, you either have recourse or you eat it and dont feel bad for yourself.

edit: on top of that you are selling coffee, something that is already well provided everywhere. it would be different if there was some element of charity or necessity, but your endeavor is purely a profit seeking one (with no negative externalities, id consider it neutral to everyone else) which furthers the mismatch between your tone and reality

edit 2: of course i think its a dick move by someone to order a bunch, then reneg. but if you werent aware of that risk, you are just stupid, especially if your going to spend 250k

I think it's important to realise that playing games is not worse than watching movies. Good games are pieces of art, just like good movies. Also from a CS point of view, video games are technically very interesting (it's a lot of computer graphics).

I don't play much anymore (and I'm not sure what console he asked for), but if I did I would be looking at the SteamDeck. Seems pretty interesting, as it is a Linux platform (based on Arch Linux), and therefore it can be used as a Linux computer as well as a gaming console (unlike e.g. a Nintendo Switch). Could be useful to learn Linux (which is necessary for software engineers).

You mentioned CE. Not sure how much he is into radio stuff, but the FlipperZero device seems to be quite a success, and it may fit the CS/CE profile. Could be a powerful educational "toy".
I remember reading some time ago about a cinema chain that used a technique they called "bullfighter" or similar, that was designed to reduce the customer's anger by having several layers of staff handle the issue.

With each new "layer" the customer got a little less angry, until it came to a point where the customer would be in a more reasonable state, and then a solution would be provided which made the customer happy.

The dowside was that the first few staff members that had to deal with the customer would receive the bulk of the anger which I imagine wasn't fun.

But by making the customer feel like their issue was being "escalated" (even though the layers would actually be staff of the same rank), by the time the customer was sent to an actual manager, they would be more receptive to a solution.
I assume it is at least partly a status symbol thing when going out as a group to eat, especially amongst young people.
consumers hate it because the menu prices increase, and you end up with McD's level customer service where drinks are never refilled, and service overall degrades

I have one such restaurant near me and I neither hate it nor experience bad service. It's been like this a few years and they're doing fine.

I have. I kept about $500 worth of bitcoin, as an unencrypted wallet.dat file, on my gaming PC in which I sometimes run untrusted executables.

One day, I got a notification the coins have been moved. After realising it wasn't a false positive, I immediately disconnected and imaged the PC, and sure enough, deep investigation found malware.

Small price to pay, as it alerted me to rotate all passwords and sessions, and alert the community about the compromised executable.

To this day, I keep some crypto on every device I use. If not breached, it doesn't cost me anything.

I even have a paper wallet in my physical wallet.

> inefficiencies the shuttle had that people squabble over, it was a very inspiring program

Exactly. The shuttle program was designed by bureaucrats to be "inspiring." Which explains why it was such a dismal failure economically and in turns of safety - killing 14 people which is far more than any other rocket, and costing insanely more than expendables.

The shuttle program set the U.S. space program back by decades. We are only now finally starting to recover from its dismal failure.
I interpreted them to mean that if they are going to use the app instead of cooking or eating out, they just want to pay to get food. If there is uncertainty about whether the food is coming or not, there is no reason to use the service.
I hate tipping and the idea of it and now it’s automated with all these payment apps, ie it suggests a figure, is even more stupid. Like the worst service ever and they suggest you pay 15%” so you feel obliged because the poor kid gets paid nothing anyway.

German and Italian youths have a lot of problems as well. Young Italians are facing crushing unemployment and Germans are facing increasing pressure from cheaper EU labor undermining their earning potential. From what I have been told by friends, being told “shut up and do your job or I’ll replace you with a cheaper foreigner” is a common experience. In addition the modern US campus experience is ‘in loco parentis‘ and even back when I experienced it there was a great deal of coddling and from what I’ve seen it’s gotten worse.
I said it was simple, not guaranteed to work. If it works, it works. If it doesn't, it doesn't. But it's more inclined to work if you tell them that you appreciate their help and that they'd like to contact higher ups about the situation later.

Why should they bear the cost of credit card payment processing? Cash buyers shouldn't have to subsidize credit card users.
The minimum wage (roughly what tipped workers earn) has been falling for decades, so I think at least some of the upward creep can be attributed to the knowledge that the workers are getting screwed, hard.
I attribute this to the car-first infrastructure that robs children out of exploring beyond their immediate neighborhood until they get their license.
As a European, US colleges/universities seem more like boarding schools. Here, no university would think that they have any business interfering with students' personal lives or anything they do outside a lecture hall, because they are considered adults.

More broadly speaking, there seems to be a tendency in current US culture of infantilising young adults. I have repeatedly seen people in their early 20s referred to as "kids" and treated as such. The interesting question is where this comes from, because I don't think this has always been the case, even in the US.
Business-wise, I cut the JS only part as a free plan (local use only), so it's zero dollar cost. The paid plan has the Phoenix Channel integrated.
I think the much more obvious point was that you generally only tip (and therefore would see a tip popup on the POS) at places where the tips really are an important part of their take home. I don't think that line of thinking is erroneous. Where I'm located in one of the provinces, until only recently places could pay subminimum wage to service staff under the assumption that it was covered by tips.
Credit cards in the US are effectively a regressive tax, because the people with good credit using cards get their fees refunded through card perks. Thailand is very good about not having regressive taxes in general. Someone making the median income doesn't pay more than about 2% tax at most.
Frame perfect rendering, and heterogenous and fractional DPI are the main user benefits today. Future benefits that we might get as a result of the improved stack include better crash recovery for display servers, better multi-GPU and hotplugging functionality, and better support for variable refresh rate/HDR/etc. Also, the new stack is about far more than just the Wayland devs, but as someone who has implemented a Wayland client from scratch in Go, I do not believe it is at all worse than Xorg. The biggest issue I can see today is rough edges where different compositors implement the protocols differently. But, that seems to improve over time, and users of UI toolkits generally needn't care.

Most Wayland compositors outside of GNOME, KDE and Weston are wlroots-based. Whether the packages have been added to Arch repos is kind of neither here nor there, a lot of them are reasonably mature and will do what they say. Wlrobs for example will work just fine if you want high performance screen capture inside of wlroots without relying on desktop portals.

XWayland apps scale fine, they just don't render at high DPI. I agree this is bad if it's most apps. That said, you may not have realized but a lot of apps that start in XWayland today work fine with Wayland/XDG Shell with a command line flag or environment variable. Chromium and Electron apps will switch soon when the ozone platform hint flag is changed to default to "auto". That means that Firefox, Chrome, Electron, SDL, GLFW, Qt 5, Qt 6, GTK 3 and GTK 4 apps can all start in native Wayland assuming the apps themselves don't depend on X11, including many tricky ones like OBS. Even Wine might soon have a native Wayland driver[1], further knocking down the number of apps that hard-depend on X. (For me, the main ones I can think of are Krita and dolphin-emu.)

I think the vast majority of Wayland issues today just stem from the NVIDIA experience. And to be fair, that is a completely valid reason to not use Wayland. It's a shame though, because the developers behind Xorg have no interest in maintaining parts of X outside of XWayland. It's tough to break many of these chicken-and-egg problems with 80% of the Linux user base being shafted. Of course, it's not just about Wayland, it's about the whole stack. NVIDIA users had to wait longer to get many basic creature comforts, like KMS support. It's very telling that only one major GPU vendor has issues like this with open source OSes, it's just unfortunate that it has to be the biggest one on desktop.

Of course, everything is always just around the bend. But with improving NVIDIA drivers and concrete timelines for apps defaulting to Wayland when possible, 2023 seems like it might just be the turning point. I'm patiently awaiting new NVIDIA driver releases... (But for now, you will have a way, way better time on Intel and AMD. It's leagues ahead.)

Has the use of warrant canary’s ever been tested in the US courts, especially with an NSL (or whatever they are called these days)? I don’t ever remember a case, but maybe I missed it.
The numbers are in fact calculated, not pulled out of thin air. You seem to be cynically assuming they are not with no proof and no interest in proof one way or the other.

> UberEats / DoorDash delivery fees were under $1

They have a low fixed "delivery fee" that they advertise heavily and then add a 15% "service fee" for the customer and also charge the restaurant a percentage.
During the pandemic. 15% used to be the norm, then people (including me) started paying a bit more to help out restaurant workers who were dealing with a sudden precipitous drop in business. I'm about over it though.
I don’t think that’s the cause at all. A plumber wound have plenty do ensuring water is coming in and draining. Additionally things wound break that they’d have to fix. Connecting bathroom fixtures is probably the least of what plumbers do.
Nah. Have you ever heard a mainstream progressive offer up a concrete plan to actually address the existing power asymmetry? All you get is impotent platitudes about reversing Citizens United, or the implied belief that tax-and-spend policies (i.e. the progressive platform) will naturally solve the problem over time.

In other words, the pitch is something like, "The ultra rich are have too much influence. How do we fix it? Why, just vote progressive!" which is exactly what you would expect if the focus on the ultra rich was merely a political ploy.

Not everything needs a government mandate. Every drive thru, and service job I see is has $13, $15, $16 per hour wages, and this is in the midwest where the median income is hovering around 50-55K

That sounds like a violation of the Visa/Mastercard agreement. Those networks do, in fact, charge the merchant for the use of the network but their licensing agreement specifically prohibits mentioning that surcharge or passing it on to the customer. Instead the allowable method is to provide a "cash discount."

That surcharge is also why most credit card terminals default to debit card when presented Visa/MC debit card is used. Debit cards incur a lower fee from the network than the credit card fee. Of course the customer also has less recourse using debit vs credit when it comes to chargebacks, extended warranties, etc.

Citation needed. My experiences at no-tipping restaurants have been the absolute opposite of your claims: great food, great service, and no fucking around with tipping afterwards.
We call that trauma an anecdote, that's orthogonal to whether modern American culture is conducive to children roaming. Anecdotally I also grew up in the 90s and I wonder how playing cops n robbers feeling 100% safe before curfew shaped me, my kid never will. We had cars as well but I don't have the equivalent to your story re: fast traffic;save that we had it nearby as well and roamed far with parents telling us to avoid it.

Anyway, sorry for the injury and the carelessness.

My perspective is that we went from trains being novel and a radio unheard of to handing toddlers iPads in a few centuries. Biology doesn't evolve that fast. It makes me wonder what an alien looking in would consider closer to child abuse given your comment. Unfettered iPad access or teaching a kid fast cars and roads are dangerous so going outside is bad.
The shop I use has the "scan as you shop" scanner guns, if I'm doing a big shop they're so much more convenient than having to load and unload at either a self or normal checkout.

If I'm only getting a few things I'll use the self checkouts, this store doesn't use the scales to weigh the "bagging area" so it's as easy as scanning the items, Apple Pay and away I go. As an autistic person I much prefer this experience to having to awkwardly stand and make small talk with a cashier.
I wouldn't take that line of reasoning too far. Most kids in the US don't go to college and many that do never live in a dorm. And for most schools with dorms, dorm living is only the first year or two for most students.

Maybe it's different at expensive private schools in the US, but the vast majority of Americans never attend those schools.
Yeah especially when you look at homes from that era. This thing had no market.

I do not think it’s that straightforward actually. WebViews are JIT compiled which leads to big performance gains. React Native only can use a JIT with Hermes and Hermes is just plain worse than something like V8 with JIT enabled.

Do you know if the $500 was moved 'automatedly' or by a human? If the former, makes you wonder if $0.01 would do it. (I guess network fees don't matter since you'd still see it pending on the block chain and that's good enough)

So no, not the majority of men, just the majority of rapists (or potential rapists) would rape if they could. According to the survey, interest in "violating another's consent" sits at around 17%.

The majority of men don't have to "refrain" from pedophilia, because the majority aren't sexually interested in children. Similarly, the majority of men aren't interested in raping people.

The existence of gig jobs is a benefit for people who can't work regular hours, and therefore can't get jobs as "employees" (delivery or otherwise).
> If it wasn’t, they’d be able to afford sports

They do have major sports events. Besides the big pro events, most of the college football games are on OTA. Not quite all. Just do a search on "broadcast tv listings <your area>"

Unfortunately I don't have a DVR anymore, so I still prefer to watch it on streaming if it's on there.
The fees get charged to the restaurant. The restaurants make up for it by charging higher prices on their (delivery) food. This is in addition to the "delivery fee" those services advertise and the extra "service fees" some services don't show you until you check out (look under "taxes and fees".)
You are right that no one knew that Space X's approach would work until they demonstrated it. However, it was clear that the shuttle's "reuse" approach was a dismal failure early on - even before it was built, the sheer mass shuttled to and from orbit every time was a giant red flag to anyone who understands the basic rocket equation. That also drastically limited its altitude and usefulness. In a world where practicality matters, it should have been abandoned early on in favor of a return to expendables, until we figured out something that actually worked.
Why would you go into debt for $216k, if you didn't know you were going to make at least that much back?
