That's because the US allowed Europe to do social spending instead of military spending in order to keep them from going Communist. And anyway, the result was a monstrously armed US and a defenseless Europe, so it was ultimately a win-win for America.

So an "anti-woke" activist is resigning in protest from an anti-woke university* for not being the right kind of anti-woke? Sounds like cancel culture to me! /s

* Or more accurately, a university administration role playing game
Bit odd that the US tolerates, even celebrates, massive tax avoidance but spends a lot of money on preventing relatively small sums of benefit fraud.
I'm middle class. We have a safe deposit box where I keep stuff that would be a pain in my ass to replace in the event of a fire/flood/etc.

Said items are titles to my vehicles and home, my marriage license, the will of a family member I've been entrusted with, birth certificates for my self and family members, and a couple of keepsakes for the kids that I'm very long on. It only costs me about $80 per year, and it brings me a lot of peace of mind. I have photocopies of all those docs at home, because you rarely need the real thing.
I'd be really interested in what kind of products you're talking about here where blindly collecting customer data ahead of time somehow brings value.
As a Comma owner (2 Commas in fact), I feel like Comma's main innovation is only releasing features (on the main branch at least) that they feel are quite battle tested, and at the same time not being afraid to lean into the fact that Comma is somewhat limited and isn't full FSD.

My Commas are bulletproof at doing what I expect them to do, and they don't do what I don't expect them to do. And from my perspective as a driver, it's incredibly, incredibly useful. When driving is easy and mundane I can trust that Comma can handle it (and Comma will tell me if it can't), and when driving is hard then I don't expect Comma to do handle every complex situation (though it does do a good job most of the time). They don't overpromise, and they deliver what they promise.

I'm not convinced this method will get to FSB, but I from my perspective I don't think that is necessary. I genuinely believe if every car on the road only had Comma's capabilities and no more, that would on its own reduce highway accidents by like 50%. I really wish some car manufacturers would lean into this and work with Comma on making a first-hand integration. I would 100% buy any type of car from any manufacturer if it had first-hand Comma support.
There is already keyword filtering. Try using the word "election" in SMS at a certain time of year. A certain US political party complained about this. E2EE is not compatible with content based filtering.
I think the point is that if that final 1% is essential to the project then the project was poorly planned (like the comment you replied to said). Why spend untold time tinkering on the fun easy stuff ignoring a 1% that could kill the whole thing? If that 1% isn’t essential then you should just not do it — and if you don’t make that decision then the project is also poorly planned.
Yeah, haha, thanks for correcting.

E.g. some ppl are electricians, but opt to work in mines (presumably for higher pay, but IDK)
While this would be an excellent justification for not being able to schedule everything, it's not much of a justification for not being able to schedule 2/3 of your flights on a day with clear weather...
Personal record. Although peer review would make sense if in the context of asking for workout advice.
User jeffbee sums it up better than I do in a sibling comment, but yeah, I've been hearing that since I was at least as young as you are or younger. My conclusion, just as sibling comment, is that it's FUD. No politician would come right out and say that the next generation to retire won't get Social Security; they might as well go buy the tar and a bag of feathers themselves. But they're happy to have someone question the viability of the system. Don't fall for it, as your question would have been a letter-to-the-editor in a newspaper 50 years ago, and here we are still cutting SS checks.
I don't really trust GoDaddy, but there's no evidence there that GoDaddy purchased the domain in question. It's just parked with them.
Dumbest approach is dd + compress.

Slightly smarter approach is dd, then zero unused sectors and compress.

Both will produce an image which could me restored with DD (or mounted offline). Second will be smaller.

They should be run with unmounted partitions.
In a general situation, yeah sure that makes sense. But this is Death. It's always an option, everyone knows it's an option, and sometimes it's an easier option. Leaving it to the person to suggest makes it the last resort, and ensures all other options have been exhausted.
You're right, now that I think about it.

If A then B doesn't mean if B then A.

Thanks for catching it!
Last time I looked it was simple software rendering on an SDL windows.

As simple as it goes.
I was impressed by how fast it was given that software rendering should be quite slow, but these days CPU are so powerful that this might not be a problem

A simple OpenGL renderer could be added with minimal efforts I think.
I'll note that a request for examples was made several posts back and no one seems willing to post them, only describe their interpretation of them.
Extrapolating your snide remark, I can surmise that you have no problems in life whatsoever. Congratulations.
That was my first thought: rather than three or more welders welding ~10% of the time, they needed a team of helpers setting things up, and a single welder moving quickly from job to job...
I like it, very fast, but it has some issue with idle CPU usage on my M1. It stays at 70% on idle whereas sublime at 0.0% when not used, opening the same project.
War is baddy, but I feel like there's something above, something where any living being emitting 10 equivalent tonnes of CO2 per year or more is an accidental baddy
Tesla is also selling "full self driving" as a feature, right now. Not "coming in a year or two" They are taking people's money for it right now, and have been for years.
First, GoDaddy is a garbage company and I would avoid using them. It is very hard to purchase a domain without agreeing to some other high-margin, bs-service add-on. The dark patterns are off the charts.

That said, you did let your domain expire. This is really tough to do unless you're not getting admin reminders (I think you get 3 before it expires?). If your domain is important or valauble why would you save a piddly few bucks and wait until it's near expiry? Buy multiple years or auto renew. This is not a "brilliant new scam"; registrars and 3rd parties have been doing it since we all used verisign.

Also, how do you know it was purchased by GoDaddy? How can you tell the differnce between someone else registering and parking it with them?
If I like the way the product works now, I want to use it that way indefinitely. Take Photoshop for example - if all I use is the brush and a bit of copy and paste, I don’t want to buy the new version and I don’t want to pay a subscription for upkeep of basic features. Just let me pay $30 for a license to use the tools the way they are now, for as long as I want. If they turn out a new version with better copy and paste, I’ll consider the upgrade(note that the term “upgrade” is why I would justify paying more over time).

A software like Microsoft Word - it’s mature, it’s not really getting better, why would I pay them monthly to use the same features?

My unRAID server software - I pay for unRAID once, and I expect my server to run until it dies. Why would I pay $20 a year or whatever just to keep my server running in my own house?

Services like Netflix on the other hand are turning out new content which is what I pay for. Content delivery is a different animal.

I kinda hate that I'm "forced" to buy stupid TSLA stock just because, as a responsible adult, I put most of my investments in the SP500, and any alternative I could find that excludes firms I hate (FB, TSLA) has infinitely higher expense ratios :/
Not a joke.

Your concepts of building codes and property ownership are western. There's no such thing in India. Rather, there's a patchwork of policies that contradict each other and no consistent sense of which one has precedence. And land ownership is complicated by qualifications over who can sell it and claims from family members who maybe had a descendent there hundreds of years ago. And of course, various policies benefitting squatters. And whoever could forge the ownership papers nicely enough to claim it's theirs.

These things are all features and not bugs. It gives pathways for the government to dispose of any buildings that are annoying it for whatever reason. They find the law on the books that allows them to bulldoze the school the quickest, have the tractors out there within hours, and complete the process before any lawyer can get through the patchwork of laws to stop it.

> Like, what kind of dastardly evil people are constructing schools without permits in a country desperate trying to feed and education the large population?

Don't blame whomever built the school, they were trying to help! Blame the ones who tore it down.
Quoting Brianna Wu for anything related to Tesla or Musk is like quoting Fox News for Biden insights.
yeah it could use something like pictorial writing, lets call it hieroglyphics or better still a logogram language where each symbol means a thing like Chinese, hmm or maybe we could create an alphabet of characters where on there own they don't mean anything but with a simple small set we could combine create as many words as we want and we could program with ...

half joking I don't really know much about languages, I just don't see how a graphical programming model would be better than a text based one in expressiveness or compactness?
I notice that it allows "educational institutions", many of which are operated on a for-profit basis.
I disagree and feel the cost to society of letting this play out outweighed the benefit. Crypto was a clear attempt to do finance without being subject to the rules of finance and real investors got hurt.

Over time, this would exponentially not be the case
The advice I'm giving people is to avoid tech as much as possible--to simplify one's life. Tech has long ago left the realm of useful tool and is instead being used to spy on people, foment and continue addiction, manipulate our brains' chemistry, and, in general, to do evil. I'm not saying all tech is evil, but a sufficient amount of it is for me to try and eliminate it from my life as much as possible.

You should see my kids' behavior when grounding them and banning video games; they are addicts going through withdrawal.

This is not thoughtful. Everything is somewhere, so therefore nothing is special as compared to anything? Nevertheless, businesses and dictatorships somehow find value in the information collected and organized in files and databases.
> It’s clickbait because it asserts something surprising and extreme about a movie that is generally considered to be very good

"Bad writing" is not suprising or extreme, just an opinion. And "very good" is subjective — we're talking about movies here, i.e. art. This isn't a review of programming languages where there's an objective reality of pros and cons to consider.

I haven't seen Glass Onion, but I saw Knives Out and while it was a decent film, I think comparing it to the Beatles or the Internet is a bit silly. It sounds like you really enjoyed the film and are just annoyed that someone else didn't.

https://www.tesla.com/autopilot

"Tesla cars come standard with advanced hardware capable of providing Autopilot features, and full self-driving capabilities—through software updates designed to improve functionality over time."

"Current Autopilot features require active driver supervision and do not make the vehicle autonomous."

"The system is designed to be able to conduct short and long distance trips with no action required by the person in the driver’s seat."
Yeah if given a chance I would 100% opt out. Even if it was post tax dollars. I would rather manage my own future.
Your comment reads like you have an ax to grind against consultants and have a foregone conclusion separate from the content?

In this story, the consultant found a way to remove stupid/low-skilled work from the welders' todo. They no longer have to lift shit, take off their gear, and peel plastic off parts. None of that sounds fun and presumably welders are happy not to be doing that.

I suspect a welder prefers to weld. The consultant found a way to let welders do what they chose/are trained to do, which is weld. I don't see any sort of bullshit metric/target imposed on them.
I've always liked the idea of "Libraries of Things". You join it like a normal library and can borrow things that you don't use often, so you don't even need to buy them in the first place. Here's an example in the UK: https://sharefrome.org/things/
I see quite some full backups in your near future. ;-)

And that is one of the main reasons why chunk-deduplicating backup tools (like borg, restic, ...) are better than full/incremental style ones.
It's unreasonable, in that it's a standard that can (likely) ever be met.

When it comes to the state, I believe the reason we require such broad free speech protections is precisely because perfection can never be attained, and the state holds an unfair advantage in force, and in law.

But it's just hyperbolic nonsense to consider nearly any private company, let alone one with such marginal reach as Twitter, as possessing such a monopoly on information that they have to be treated the same as the state.

And it's transparently ideological when I see someone demand perfection from non-state sources while championing alternatives with records far worse.
The comparison is based on number of enabled vehicles and not on a mile-for-mile basis.
OK, you tell the truth. The same idiots who are still working their way through acres of hoarded TP buy up every mask they can find. Your local hospital can't get any. Now what?
And of course the pragmatic reality is that nearly everybody considers themselves "better than average."

Tesla isn't merely competing with the actual average human driver, they're competing with the average human driver's unrealistically rosy perception of their own driving prowess.

You have the 5 eyes and NSA instead, whatever they do not have, apple, ms, aws and google will have.

If we put all these things aside, AEoI exists and if a bank does due diligence on mortgages, loans and car leases, they collect plenty of stuff, if they have it, the government can have it.

The EU mindlessly signed up for that, now the US gets all that insight, meanwhile, its almost impossible for americans to open a bank account abroad.
The europeans do not share fingerprint data, cept for criminal interpol investigations.

You are mistaken if ypu think your government is collecting less data than the euro governments.

There are more issues with governance there, but I will not go the esclation route, my message is simply to not trust governments with your data.

All on a need to know basis.
If you think it's going to be a few years until it recovers (I don't disagree) then why are you catching the falling knife right now. Follow your own analysis lol, the time to buy is when its been sideways for a while.
They really shouldn't require much thought in the end. Don't artificially keep people out of a particular profession. Don't artificially force people into a particular profession. Let people have the opportunity to do the job they want to do and call it a day.

Nice bit of insight! For anyone confused like me: I believe it should read "about 10^-7 mols of hydronium ions per liter", which is about 6*10^16 ions per liter.
Here’s the part I see as false advertising:

https://www.tesla.com/autopilot

> Tesla cars come standard with advanced hardware capable of providing Autopilot features, and full self-driving capabilities—through software updates designed to improve functionality over time.

There is no way for Tesla to know that their cars have the hardware needed for full self-driving capabilities because they don’t know what hardware is needed for that.

Also the branding of their “Autopilot” with a capital A allows them to make up whatever definition they want for it and lets customers (understandably) confuse it with the standard definition of “autopilot” without a capital A.
They are already pretty resentful at us because we have such high salaries compared to the rest of the population... I bet that nobody is willing to give any penny more to their IT departments
Yeah, there is nothing there which approaches “hacked” - the closest is “false information”

I was just wondering if there’s an actual reason for omitting that as an option - like maybe it had been abused terribly or something
> which typically boast the size of a single millimeter and last just one-tenth of a millisecond.

Interesting. I wouldn't have guessed that the bubbles form and collapse so quickly, given their size.
Yes, because once I stop believing then the FUD raised around social security will have worked and I don't want that to happen. It would imply the people who generate such FUD have a stronger ability to hyperstitize[1].

You might want to check the helix editor. It has LSP support out of the box.
ICANN doesn’t enforce its rules with GoDaddy because they’re too big. I had this conversation with Vint Cerf about their shenanigans several years ago when he was the chairman. Something that’s a grey area is 0 hope. Some things never change. Don’t do business with GD.
Build housing/work in the trades (most likely as an electrician/electrical journeyman). Enough work left for someone middle aged for the rest of their working life.
It would be interesting to see that metric normalized for average population age. US over time has skewed older (and will continue to do so).
I'm not surprised. GoDaddy supported the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA). Is the public still not convinced GoDaddy is an evil and shady company? When someone mentions them I always advise them to transfer their domain/hosting elsewhere.
It's the same problem around the world. You're either 100% capable of work or 100% incapable. It's _really_ hard to make the bureaucracy believe you're at 50%.

Or, hear me out, your ability work fluctuates daily or weekly depending on how bad your condition is!
I vaguely remember that once too, haven’t seen it in a while

There are various degrees of trust. One may trust a package maintainer to write correct, well-designed code and to maintain it. But should one trust that package maintainer to have solid security standards in their code repo, their CI/CD, and their distribution mechanism?

well, it'll be a cold day in hell before I ever buy a Tesla, but on the other hand I drive an '04 Corolla and like the fact that I never have to worry about my car doors opening or not.

If anything, I'm mostly ambivalent about Musk. So not all of us :)

An interesting example is chessable, which is a spaced repetition system for chess. It keeps track of each move in a sequence of moves separately, but every time it asks you to re-learn a specific move, you are asked to play out the whole sequence, instead of just being shown the position and asking you to play the next move.

That memo was sent before the storm and before anyone was stranded. It was an attempt to prevent a future crisis. If your goal is to prevent a future crisis, alternatives to ramping up employee abuse 3 days before a big storm might be:

1. Hiring more people (more than 3 days in advance).

2. Paying people more so they don't quit.

3. Giving people paid sick time and not threatening their jobs when they take it so that they don't come to work sick and get a bunch of their colleagues sick.

4. Selling fewer tickets and running fewer flights if you don't have enough capacity to support the current workload.
What they have now is a small subset of "driving" so not really useful to compare as it's misleading at best. Otherwise you could say student drivers are the best drivers since they almost never cause accidents.
Very curious about your perspective as you seem to be the only one so far here who has said they worked for the FBI. What role did you have?

Has anyone ever said "no" to a request? Were those requests lawful or were you asking others to do illegal things? If you did ever get a "no", was it your job or did you know of others whose job it was to exact revenge or to otherwise illegally coerce compliance?

According to the Twitter Files, Twitter itself said "no" to many requests. What was the ill-fate they met for saying "no" to the FBI?

The way I see it, when you're a multibillion, multinational corporation that has a very powerful board of directors and an experienced legal team, saying "no" to a request from FBI is not only an option, it likely will have zero consequences. Other massive companies are able to say "no" to the FBI and are still in business. Does "come back with a warrant" not do the trick anymore?
Then you end up on the job market.

I know the emails they’re talking about. They’re not as simple as writing the facts. Writing an extremely complex technical email in jargon and ways for people who aren’t familiar with any of it - even slightly - and explaining each detail concretely is quite the process.

It’s annoying when I have to write a 6,000 word email that is easily misunderstood because most others barely have an idea of the subject matter but it happens more often than I’d like to say.

Tbh - I find the emails pointless but this is what happens in low trust (dysfunctional) organizations.
