It's not just devkits being cheap (there have been plenty of knockoff cheap ST boards) its

* integrated WiFi/BT with no/near zero extra engineering needed

* generous amount of RAM/Flash so you can afford to be sloppy

* SDK making it fast to get to the "the wifi is working and I can get on with my development"

* momentum from ESP8266 that already (due to same "super cheap with wifi") had a chunk of market.

Even now in middle of chipaggedon you can get WIFI/BT breakout board for like $3-5. That's not "just" "cheap enough for hobbyist breadboard", that's cheap enough to get the whole product built around.

I think partly due to how cheap WiFi/BT has become the likes of Zigbee didn't got as popular as they probably should, between licensing costs it was just cheaper for IoT companies to not touch it, even if it would make more sense in places.

This could also be beneficial for people who procrastinate - and let's be real, we all have procrastinated at-least once.
I don't think the reset is around resetting the software logic exactly, but rather that things have gotten so far outside of what they should be they no longer know where planes are, where crews that can find those planes are, and how many people even are still planning on using Southwest to fly to their intended destination.

They need a "reset" to spend a few days inputting as much of that data as possible into their computer system, at which point they can start operating with some level of efficiency and start functioning again.
That's fair, I'd appreciate hearing from someone who actually did the Latin curriculum and learned Latin from it if they managed to do it without additional resources to learn e.g. case endings from a text written in English.

Part of my reason for commenting is also that language-learning is something that a lot of people want to do but is extremely difficult to do & stick with outside of a structured environment/with a teacher. If you truly want to pursue it, I think finding an online class is going to help you considerably more than a self-guided curriculum like this; I probably should've mentioned that before. I wish I'd done that for Korean.
Because were not at risk of being eaten by saber tooth tigers? By the same logic, we should just give in to our sweet tooth that evolved naturally and ignore our “unnatural” scientific knowledge of diabetes and obesity
Most other car manufacturers have multiple popular models. For some reason Tesla skews almost exclusively Model Y in Norway (Dec).

VW (brand) eg sold 3750 vs 5382 Tesla in December spread over ID.3, ID.4, ID.Buzz*. Add 449 Porsche Taycans, 1392 SKODAs, 2086 Audis and VW (the conglomerate) is ahead, just spread out over many models and brands.
FWIW Tesla’s connector and charging setup far surpasses that awfulness of using a clunky, heavy, and frankly ugly CCS charger.

Tesla also developed their connector long before CCS was a clear universal choice, though they do sell cars in Europe with a CCS connector as standard. In North America you just need to plug in the CCS adapter and you’re good to go from any charger you want.

Tesla also plans to open up their supercharger network in North America at some point, just as they have already in Europe. Unclear if they will retrofit stations with adapters or new cabling though
I’m sure I could afford that!

We use Docusign because after all of the hard work to close a deal, we want to make sure we get the signature and the signer doesn’t have to learn a new signature tool. Signers like Docusign because all of their signed docs are in one place.

is inconstant. The perspective you've offered is real but as someone pointed out, it's worth reading the room. Emerson once said (to a rich man) something like, "Give this person the inner work of his intellect, and
he will be happier than the richest man".
Most people, when made aware of how almost all of the eggs they consume are produced, would be a little uncomfortable at least. Mind you I still eat plenty of eggs, but I entirely grok a person not wanting to consume the output of industrial egg production. I try to buy eggs with adjectives added to the label about how nice they are to their hens knowing full well that these are of limited benefit.

Honey, on the other hand, I don't understand a moral objection to, but also who cares if somebody doesn't want to eat honey?
I see, you have a issue with understanding logic. In this case we have an illustration of the fact that A => B != B => A
Go to libgen.is, search book name, click download link, then click "Open with Books" and you're done. It takes single-digit seconds. It literally takes longer to log in to Amazon, and the last time I did they blocked me as well for suspected fraud despite it being a 10+ year old Prime account.

> But for most of history, for most people, food based on plants was the default and still should be.

Right, and all those cave paintings depicting hunting scenes were entirely for sport. There are no instances in the wild of any species similar to humans eating meat I guess. Ancient writings where they reference meats, they were really talking about Beyond Meat.

We've evolved to eat plants, yes. We've also evolved to eat meat. We've been eating meat for many millennia. I'll agree, not at the ratio that's common in the normal US diet these days, but its disingenuous to suggest that plants were the sole default of food, and it is only a modern thing to eat meat.
There's enormous amounts of legitimate business happening in crypto. You're just saying you don't like the technology. Crypto drive sales of real goods and services. And prevents central banks from debasing the currency.
I've never been to Venice so perhaps I would appreciate it more after that.

I did become a bit more interested in visiting Venice after watching this one video by DamiLee on Hurry Sickness and how the structure of Venice is like a labyrinth, designed to slow you down and encourage you to wander, as if it were somewhat of a soul-healing mechanism. She also mentions Invisible Cities in the video:

Usually when someone uses lots of different cards to make purchases on a website, they're testing stolen cards. 2-3 cards is fine, but if you have over ~5 cards in a day, it's over 90% chance that they're stolen. You simply don't run an ecommerce platform of any size without a system to automatically flag and block those transactions.

I haven't checked the logs, but I guarantee there have been people/bots trying to do card testing on our site in the past 24 hours. It's pretty nearly a non-stop barrage, so you have to auto-detect and auto-block.
It's either people love free stuff or it's poverty. The business model of selling your data is exactly a supply to demands of poor and free-aholic people.
Unless the baby gets caught in the covers or rolled upon during the night. Every approach likely has some pros and cons, so barring randomized and reproduced trials I take all claims as unproven.
Yeah, I suppose, but it's a little like linking to a JPEG by saying "it's two thirds of the way down this HTML page".

I've always suspected Redux to be a pointless indirection, now I am all the more convinced.
A book series I am a fan of, was available only on fictionwise on my country. (It was available on other countries with other stores).

Barnes e Noble then bought fictionwise and sent me an email explaining I had a few days to download the books I legally bought because their policy was that downloads after the deadline would be allowed only for people physically inside USA and they would even check VPN and proxy usage.

So right now there are 0 legal ways for me to get the books I am a fan of. So piracy it is. I guess the author can't even complain if lost sales since there is literally zero ways for me to pay him.
>So if there was anything I was considering doing where if it became public I would be hurt, I wouldn't do it.

Sounds like a pretty boring life and you will miss pretty much chances in life and also would be a nightmare for every buddy who has a premium account on fetlife.

Privacy is hard to gain these days, but it's possible. Some private data is safed on small book, which is hidden under my floor and some on an older laptop with Qubes installed and internet is only accessed over Whonix VMs. (Depends on the threat scenario)

>I might as well take advantage of it by making things public on my own.

This is a great way to make yourself an easy target. There's a difference if big tech & three-letter agencies have access to your private data and being totally exposed on the internet for every identity thief and Kiwifarms-Stalker. You should share as less data as possible or create as much fake data as possible about yourself. Fake shedule, fake pictures with fake exif-data, fake friends, etc.

>location based restraining orders can be automatically checked (automatically alert the police if this person comes within X distance of this other person) then keeping locations secret may become unimportant

Except the stalker is smart enough to follow you outside a big city (or wearing a mask) where no cams are placed and doesn't use a tracking device like a Smartphone. Also a data leak of the position data will happen. Stalkers will use these data to track their victims even better.

>parents that worry that the foolish things their middle schoolers write on the internet might come back to haunt them. Right now, their concerns may be correct. Longer term, our society has some adjusting to do to a world where more information is public

No, there will be always more boring people than you, who do nothing of that. These people will be the fools who get hired in future and you have become more boring like them to compete on the job market. This means no porn, drugs and politically-incorrect jokes with to your friends and family.

I would rather be dead than live in a world where the most boring people judge the most intimate moments of my life.
A forecast about the future is speculative, but that doesn’t mean it’s baseless. It’s unlikely to be wildly off. It does not assume Tesla has no growth. It likely bakes in assumptions about Tesla growing.
You say this like it's a bad thing.

Why do you think it's a bad thing?

Do you think governments mandating that analog telephones used RJ-11 and twisted pair to be bad?

What about mandates on electrical receptical standards?
Did they display only facts that correlate to the desired conclusion or did they examine the I consistencies and counter points as well?

I don't disagree with their conclusion but the other commenter's point is reasonable. We live in a world where facts are fungible based on how they're presented and interpreted.

Few things are cut and dry despite how they are often presented.
Crazy simple and thus misses a few rather basic features - like proper scaling (the icons for upvote/downvote and buttons for actions are too big for mobile, and also too small on big screens), and some basic late 2000s AJAX to avoid page reloads for basic actions such as adding/deleting a comment.
I picked one up recently, it's a pretty neat machine. The footprint is larger, but I doubt that matters for many people.
For Headphones?

There is a big difference between a good Bluetooth radio and a a bad Bluetooth radio. I have a Dell Alienware laptop and a more recent Dell Latitude. The first struggles to deliver audio to headphones in the next room, the second send audio through several walls with ease.

The worst thing about Bluetooth is that the 2.4 GHz band is very crowded with WiFi, smart home and other protocols. They'd be afraid to demo a cheap tablet with a cheap BT mouse and keyboard at CES and will demo a nonsensical "convertible" or "2-in-1" instead because it won't be clobbered by all that interference.

Other than that, the 2.4 GHz band works very well, if Bluetooth migrated to 5 or 6 GHz people would complain more about reliability unless we also installed more elaborate antenna arrays on the "base stations".

I'd like to see an infrastructure mode for Bluetooth which works like a cell phone or corporate WiFi system which could pipe audio from your TV to headphones anywhere on the grounds, provide dialtone, sync fitness bands, service sensors, etc.

The El Dorado of the industry is millimeter wave which could provide "better than commonly wired" performance over a line of sight but stop working completely if that path is interrupted, by your body for instance. That would need lots and lots of infrastructure to always have an antenna visible to the mobile station.
You can't give people free flights if you don't know where your planes and crews are and don't know where to tell your angry customers to go. There are also laws to adhere to, there is a maximum amount of time a flight crew can work so if you tell them to "just fly if you can and we'll figure it out later" you're probably going to break a lot of laws and endanger a lot of passengers.

I think they probably are trying to jerry-rig a system, but the airline industry is heavily regulated for safety reasons (a good idea that has been extremely successful), so it's very difficult to get a plane in the air if you don't know what the fuck you're doing.
If you run an open-source project funded by donations, it is ok to ask for them every time you get any publicity. There is nothing shady about that.
It would, and that's likely what they're using - but it isn't perfect.

When it becomes non-perfect and you get a number of events that throw it off (like storms causing certain legs from not getting completed to move the plane to the proper spot and holidays causing disproportionate load in certain parts of the network), then everything gets messy.
As well as the daily flag game (which is still the main game), I've added a side quest arcade game to flagsake.com: flagsake.com/arcade, would love to get thoughts please :-)
Twenty Three Questions to Ask Myself in 2023
With a specific exception: "(...) except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted".

So it does still exist - but America only considers criminals for it. From what I've gathered, though, that is still a lot of people.
If they hit the price that could be really interesting.
US culture has victims in cages on the border with Mexico, victims in Gitmo, victims being locked up in prison due to racism, and about a million victims in Iraq/Syria. Not to mention most of global warming is from rich people.

Are you okay destroying US culture? Or are you an apologist for our racist justice system?

Would, as you put it "cultural imperialism which destroys such cultures as have victims would be strongly preferable to the continued existence of such cultures" in the context of Western culture?

See what I did there? If the point I tried to make above isn't clear:

* The point isn't to say slavery is okay -- it's obviously not -- but a lot of stuff in every culture is not okay.

* A lot of other stuff in every culture is not okay as perceived by other cultures (especially around sex, gender, and religion), but comes down to values.

* And a lot of other stuff is beautiful, unique, and good.

Western cultural imperialist interventions haven't worked out well in the past. I'm glad to write more about that too. Even if you -- as most of these comments seem to -- believe that Western culture is superior, culturally imperialist interventions haven't led to the outcome you want.

What interventions are you proposing, and why would you believe they would work any better here?
Pi-hole as adblocker and Localdns extension is my first step towards saving my integrity, what other things should I do?
There was a short-lived site that I was presented, back in 2015, that had a similar idea. A user's 'home' page was a simple 4x4 grid and in each of the cells you could add pretty much any kind of content you wanted. Long form posts (truncated, on the home page, but could be clicked through to read in full in a modal), images (or galleries), videos, embedded content, etc. You had full agency to change any of the 16 things at any time.

There was also a "feed" page which just showed any cells that had been updated by users you follow, which made the feed page pretty much like any other social media.

I found it kind of charming that you had this very limited number of things you could be "saying" at any one time. You couldn't represent yourself with your entire history, but you could be quite expressive with just 16 cells of freedom.

I don't remember the site, nor can I find anything that seems to be what I remember, now. For some reason, I have the idea that it was killed off in a wave of "ephemeral" apps failing. But I don't know why I think that, so /shrug.

In any case, I find your idea to be charming in a similar way. I do like the idea of ephemeral representations, as opposed to a historical ledger of your entire usage with a site. And I also like the idea of, essentially, controlling your "headline" to such an extent that there are no (or very few) other options for people if they want to engage with your content at all. It's like "This is what I'm interested in, today. Please talk about it with me.", with an implication of "I can't focus on stuff from last week, even if you're only discovering it today, because of my new post."

For me, at least, that's a reasonable offering that I hope gains some traction!
When I was younger (I've not really played since) we played by a word being valid if you could state what it means and use it in a sentence. An Oxford English Dictionary was used to check. For domain specific words other references were permitted (books on computing for instance, or an encyclopedia). Acronyms were permitted only if in common use in that form. Local slang too, I supposed in modern times adding Urban Dictionary to the references would cover that.

But the important thing was to state the meaning before looking up the word, not just using the reference list to pick out combinations that work with your letters. It being a real word did not count if you didn't understand the word.

This wouldn't work as well for online gaming, I expect. And of course you can game it by memorising the meanings of some obscure words, but that (expanded vocab) was part of the point.
Holding information in mind may mean storing it among synapses
“de rigeur for <X> and <Y>” means “required by current fashion for all of X and Y” not “practiced by some subset of X and Y”.

You seem to be retreating from the claim that Columbus’s behavior as governor was in line with the universal practice of his time to the much weaker and less controversial claim that it was both in some way influenced by the social context of his time and not uniquely bad in the contemporary (overlapping) “European and Muslim” world.

Which, sure, nice motte and bailey, Columbus was quite possibly not the single most abusive European and/or Muslim territorial governor of the late 15th Century.

(You also seem to want to argue about claims about Mesoamerican civilizations which I did not argue against, for whatever reason.)
People have been pushing dumb anti-privacy talking points forever. I don't think it's evidence of a secret conspiracy between the government and the media.

I think here's a helpful exercise to you:

1. Write down or internally note every time you think you "should" do, be, or etc. something. (i.e. "I should do the dishes" or "I should be more disciplined")

2. Evaluate the underlying assumptions behind each "should" you've told yourself and if it helps you in any way. (i.e. "I have decided I wouldn't keep dishes in the sink more than 1 day" or "My childhood raised me with too-high rigor standards")

A lot of people here are reacting to this post based on political considerations. I think people are missing the personal and moral aspect. I don't expose my life to the internet unnecessarily (my username here is courtesy of pwgen), but I do practice, as best I can, the principal of trying to never do things I would be ashamed for others to know about. I don't mean in terms of kinks or whatever, but in terms of how I treat other people. In particular, I try not to say things about people that I would not say to them directly. This pushes me to more considerate when talking to other people about someone not present, and more open when talking to that person directly. It also minimizes painful blow-back when my words reach further than I intended.

There are certain things I say that I don't want people to associate with me, not because I'm ashamed of them, but because I know I would either be misunderstood, or harmed by people with different morals than myself. But even so, I try to express these things in such a way that I would not be ashamed to have said them, consequences aside.
She cannot get her old passport. If her "employers" know she is leaving, they will stop it.

I won't post about how we plan to get her out but I believe it is a good one and it has very littler risk to her or their brother. Perhaps when it is all done will feel ok posting more.

It is costing us a lot of money in the end, but the woman we employ is part of the family at this point and it's important to us that her sister is safe. We will employ the sister on her landing in our country and will do so for at least a year.

Questions I would ask (and do ask) myself:

Q1) What makes you happy? (easier said than done, but if not as work, finding things that you can do outside of work, and like-minded people you can meet makes life worthwhile I feel. I am still working on this myself)

Q2) What makes you want to feel like you can't wait to get up every day in the morning? (Sometimes it's just a mindset switch, from this is a "job" to actually finding ways to become very engaged, and passionate. Finding ways to tie it into your long-term goals whether pursuit of knowledge or curiosity, for example)

Q3)What are your financial goals? (Whether you're FI, or not has a huge effect for the questions above I feel, and sometimes that will help you sort your short, medium and long-term expectations)
Making decisions based on opinions that are 12 years old is stupid in any niche, let alone in tech where things change quickly. AMD have been the best bang for buck for what now, 5-6 years? Brand loyalty here doesn't make much sense.
