Herb built up quite a cult, and he was around on the board of directors until 2008. While Gary is a colossal prick what we're seeing is absolutely Herb's legacy. Southwest had already outgrown its reputation as Herb's scrappy little airline by the 2000s. The meltdown is due, in large part, to practices that worked well enough with 90 jets but don't scale to the largest 737 fleet in the world. That lack of automation? That's on Herb, Gary didn't just suddenly decide to walk back a bunch of shit and decree that Southwest employees had to do everything by hand.

American and Delta built out SABRE and Deltamatic in the 60s, United built out Apollo in the early 70s. Under Herb, Southwest basically did everything by hand until they started maybe thinking about buying into the full SABRE suite a couple decades ago. They only just integrated ticketing (with Apollo, SABRE, and Amadeus) in like 2017. Their scheduling (which is the biggest pain point right now) is still done the old-fashioned Herb way. As of 2019 Southwest was still doing load planning manually (a.k.a. counting bags by hand and using assumed weights). Notably this got them in hot water with the FAA.

While things didn't reach a tipping point until Herb died, he did not leave Southwest on the right course. He created a nifty little airline but utterly failed to scale it. The continued lack of investment is on Gary and Bob, of course.

That don't work with render only bug, safari has tons of them. And in that case, JS is useless. Because everything reports correct, only the screen messed up.

Another example, Android webview 69 on certain devices has a bug that will take down the whole app. There is no way you can workaround it without ua sniffing. Because a single try will take the whole app away.
Good times are for getting the house in order so things don’t go sideways in the future and creating frameworks for when things inevitably do go sideways. If you have good plans and everyone is one the same page people can fall back to standard operating procedure and not over think things or panic because they don’t know what to do.

In the case of Southwest they failed to invest in critical infrastructure and probably contingency planning as well. Hindsight is always 20/20, but I am sure there were/are people who knew this was a ticking time bomb.
Here is a formal rebuttal from other people:

https://acamh.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/jcpp....

> In their recent paper published in JCPP, Bilgin and Wolke (2020a) argue that leaving an infant to ‘cry it out’, rather than responding to the child’s cries, had no adverse effects on mother–infant attachment at 18 months. This finding opposes evidence across a wide range of scientific fields. Here, we outline several concerns with the article and argue against some of the authors’ strong claims, which have already gained media attention, including a report on the NHS website. We suggest that the authors’ conclusions should be considered one piece of a larger scientific whole, where ‘cry it out’ seems, overall, to be of detriment to both attachment and development. Crucially, we are concerned that this study has issues regarding power and other analytical decisions. More generally, we fear that the authors have overstated their findings and we hope that members of the public do not alter their parenting behaviours in line with such claims without further research into this controversial topic.
I wish this was more programmatic and less stringy. Intermediate layer of string queries feels redundant. But I understand it makes clear separation of layers and concerns
>No, I don't. A lot of things that were manufactured in the US were exported into countries that were under its influence.

Again, demonstrating your ignorance. Sleep training is based on "Le Pause". It's imported.

>There are various comments from others in this thread which explain that problem in detail.

And there have been countless comments in this thread, all citing evidence that there is no difference in a child who co-slept or was sleep-trained beyond the age of 6. There simply is not.

>In contrast, your perspective of 'nothing happening' resides on a single study made with 43 children.

I have never cited that study, but thank you for putting words into my mouth.
The discount on the notes was inevitably related to the probability that the issuing bank would honor the notes and redeem them with gold.

When the Fed lost all credibility with exchanging their banknotes for gold, we had the Great Depression. FDR then defaulted on the gold bonds, basically stealing from the good citizens who had trusted the government.
You ask “how so?” in another thread and then provide this false trichotomy with an unconditional “It’s not” as an opener. Shitty internet arm chair extremism at its finest.

Anyway, the fourth category is people who want to own their devices on their network and are being fought by the vendors of their Internet of things devices. When I have dns queries I can build a pattern of what it takes some rando device to operate and then lock down and alert on anything else. Can’t do that with DoH.

With DoH, I just have to allow opaque DNS smuggling to the wider Internet and hope that the device hasn’t been compromised. It’s trivial to run bidirectional c&c over DNS and DoH makes that invisible to anyone. It’s a monumental step back in security for the local network to improve the privacy of the individual device.
Great question. If you were an American kid growing up in the US in the 1970's and '80's, football was considered an exotic import (unlike American college and NFL "football"). Youth leagues were a completely new thing, underfunded, and not that popular. It was even less popular as a sport among adults at the time, so very little advertising dollars Stateside. The big three in the US are baseball, NFL football, and basketball, with hockey coming in second. Soccer is still playing catch-up in the States. It's still nowhere near as popular as it is in Europe or South America.

I can remember putting on our Adidas jerseys and shin guards and boots (or maybe Sambas) and practicing "soccer skills" in my yard with friends, and people would actually stop on the street and ask "what game are you playing?" Many adult Americans had never seen a black and white classic Adidas Telstar ball before!

Things are a lot better today, of course, with a dramatic increase in youth leagues and FIFA and Premier League viewership. Pelé was a huge part of that popularization because he was the first recognized football superstar in America for those interested in the game.
When I have a large file, using multiple panes on the same file was a big step forward. It took me far longer than it should have to realize that.

Edit:
Although 2k lines in file does not quite qualify as large in a lot of the projects. (Not that I like it, I prefer to break them up)
The history of mankind is full of regimes we'd find now oppressive which did reasonably well. Britain ruled the waves and advanced the technology without a lot of free speech protections. Genoa, Florence, and Venice dominated trade, arts, and technology of the time without the idea of free speech.

Even the totalitarian Soviet Union has been a formidable force while having a powerful reality distortion propaganda field and censorship inside, and China rose to be and remains a powerhouse with the Great Firewall and tons of censorship.

Those people who prefer to err on the side of overdoing it while "rooting out evil" and stifling free exchange of opinion just care more about power. They don't mind a bit of oppression, because, you know, it's always against the bad guys, not them; they plan to always follow the party line (or even set it, the bolder of them).
FWIW, accessing web sites from a "datacenter" IP address is going to be iffy even if you aren't sharing the IP with a few thousand other users. A lot of web sites, particularly e-commerce sites, restrict traffic or block purchases from datacenter IPs, on the (generally correct) theory that they're likely to be bots.
"So a law banning "my tarot cards tell me person X is a murderer" may also ban "I've carefully reviewed all the evidence, and I think person X is a murderer" where this is a reasonable accusation."

Countries that extend defamation to opinions tend to apply a reasonable person or similar standard to the opinions.
Here is where I think we part ways, philosophically speaking:

> If we keep in mind the difference between what we can rigorously establish and what we’re fundamentally taking on faith (however well-founded)

From my perspective, we're taking everything in the real world "on faith" (and there is a loaded phrase ripe to be deliberately misinterpreted) to a certain extent, and not just because of brain-in-a-vat arguments. For example, I sit in chairs thinking they're solid objects, but they're made of solid objects and might well collapse under me. In my experience, that doesn't happen to me, so my heuristic is that chairs are safe, but a heuristic isn't rigorous. It's "faith" if you want to phrase things that way.

Moving deeper, I trust that my senses provide me with accurate-enough reflections of reality I can use them to navigate my world safely, but I know enough about neurology to know that that isn't a given. Vision is reconstructed by the visual cortex from messy and incomplete nerve signals from the retinas, our sense of 3D space is reconstructed (based on low-level heuristics) from a pair of 2D images reconstructed from those messy retinal signals, and so on, from the bottom of the neurological hierarchy to the top of the conscious sense of self. The human machine lives off of best-guess reconstructions from incomplete and messy data.

This isn't mere acatalepsy, however: I think humans live in a physical world we're capable of perceiving accurately enough, and comprehending well enough, that we can accurately say we live in a real and comprehensible external Universe, and that some things don't go away even if you don't believe in them. Therefore, it's possible for our heuristic judgements to become more accurate at predicting reality over time, which is what separates knowledge from dogma.

Accepting that an authority is probably more likely to be right than wrong is a heuristic, and that heuristic can and should be improved, but all of our knowledge of reality is heuristic, so trying to treat reality like an axiom system is philosophically wrong-headed and incapable of dealing with the full complexity of reality as well.

It's sad that you were downvoted for this because you are not wrong at all. VS Code GUI config is a mess, and a lot of the settings are not available there. I just got used to messing with the JSON autocomplete.
ah, yes! link to a group of people who didn't like the outcome of a study, so they wrote about it with links to older studies that the more comprehensive one already addressed. of course, said people didn't bother to do their own study, but needed to get it off their chests how mad it makes them that the newer/more data-driven studies go against their instincts.
for the rest of us, prepare for interviews and keep looking for jobs when you have a stable job.
> Infinity is a complicated "number" with different interpretations and [---tortured pure math here---] if you stretch some of them to the breaking point, the only horse that can have both an "even" and an "odd" number of legs is one that "must have infinite legs"

I am not aware of this math; can you elaborate? In pretty much any system, there is no number that is both even and odd, and including infinite quantities in the system doesn't change that.
Having kids and raising a family is work too - really, really hard work.

And sometimes work that doesn’t ever pay off, for reasons well outside of anyone’s control.

There is a reason that spousal and child abuse was so much higher then.

I agree regarding photonic transistors, I have a hard time seeing how those would scale down to even current transistor sizes/densities. Especially given that they'd probably have to rely on much shorter wavelength light, which comes with its own issues.

Carbon Nanotube transistors are fairly promising though, they're structured similarly to regular transistors but can have some neat properties like ballistic transport regimes (meaning zero resistance when enough current is going through), better heat dissipation and ability to handle much higher currents. IIRC they're also very tunable with the bandgap controlled by the shape of the tube.

Main issue with CNT transistors is just that - as with most things involving CNTs - we need production methods that are significantly more consistent with the shape and quality of tube they produce. We'd need to be able to print billions of tubes per chip with almost the exact same shape to compete with traditional semiconductors.
>Avoid projecting your cultural paradigm to random people on the Internet.

Avoid being an absolute asshole who is impossible to have a level-headed discussion with. Your flying off the handle in this thread with judgement geared towards "random people on the internet" demonstrates that very well.

It's clear that there will be no way to have a genuine, level-headed conversation with you. Enjoy your evening, or the rest of your day, wherever you are.
haven't had any major issues post-deployment with any of the random amzn/aliexpress ones I've used so far, fingers crossed

i've noticed that if your phone doesnt get full signal in the spot you want to place the router at all times of the day, a cheaper router usually doesnt stand a chance of getting a good signal without an external antenna

the ones where you can attach an external antenna with a wire lead are usually easier to position in just the right spot for full bars, and they just seem 'hardier' of the bunch, but you need the antenna, tradeoffs
At 6 months I would stay for another 6 months at least and see how the market is. If an offer falls in your lap you could consider it.
"recommended"? That's just something that Chrome team created and no other browser vendor is interested in supporting it. Google seems to think that they can use their market dominance to force the idea.

Are you replying to the correct people? I think I never mention how you should write a program. I only say that assume user have a good internet connection is a naive idea nowadays. (The gta 5 is the worst example in my opinion, lost of a few udp packets and your whole game exit to main menu. How the f**k the dev assume udp packets never lost?)
sure. and when you're done they throw a new project at you with another arbitrarily tight deadline and it never gets fixed. that's how we accumulate the debt, because we are focusing on the crucial things.
>seeing employment as exploitation instead of a trade

that's objective reality, sport. That's what profit is - the surplus of value from materials and labor...

LG Gram 17 is my favorite laptop. If you want a large screen (17", 2560x1600) while being ultrathin and lightweight (1.35kg), I haven't found better.

That being said I ended up uninstalling Linux for Windows because Linux turned out to be a big pain and had too many dealbreakers for me (no two-finger swipe back/forward navigation, couldn't connect Airpod Pro headphones with microphone, too much hassle to do basic everyday stuff). I know Windows isn't ideal, but with Windows Subsystem for Linux you still get your Linux terminal.
For ML tutorials, I feel like I do see quite a lot of tutorials in pure numpy. A fun thing I've been doing with ChatGPT is to ask it to show me some starter code for some topic. Usually it shows me some code that imports sklearn and then I'll followup asking it to give me everything written without these dependencies. It's worked out pretty well so far.
your comments are the same tired comments along the lines of "my parents and all the people I grew up with used a natural gas stove, so it's clearly the right way and nothing can be better". except when studies come out showing there are better ways to do things you're so set in your ways that it won't matter.

the thing with sleep training is that it works so wonderfully for a lot of people that the same arguments about how people who lived 20 people in a small cottage and had free babysitting all day long are somehow analogous is no longer relevant. times changed, people work more, sleep is more important for everyone (recent studies show), and the old way of doing it is no longer the best/only way.
I’m sporting the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 with AMD Ryzen 7 4800U.

Amazing value for money (< €900) and everything worked out of the box immediately when I bought it new 3 years ago using the latest Linux kernel (via Arch). Had a MacBook Pro before and it blows my mind how much cheaper this set-up is, and how much more I enjoy using it because of decent window managers.

In general, if you go for a distro like Debian or Ubuntu I don’t think you can go wrong with a Lenovo that’s been out for a few years.
From what I recall of law school, the reasonable person standard is most common in tort law, and specifically in negligence cases. These involve car accidents, trip and fall, etc.

There is no general overarching rule that applies a reasonable person standard to all areas of law.
There’s even a word for that: serendipity.

I still use GC too, but I also use pal as a backup for some event types.

I have a my.calendar text file in the cloud, which is both human- and pal- readable. But I also have a cron job that adds the clean version of the output to my daily journal file. This file is also synced via cloud storage and easy to review in a simple text editor on my phone or laptop, etc.

Just one way to do it very simply though. Good luck in your search.

It took years of showstopper bugs (random lockups, horrible stability) but I feel like AMD Ryzen APU laptops are finally stable and awesome Linux machines. Be absolutely sure you're running recent kernels like in the 6.x series. They are really fantastic performers for dev work in my experience. Good multi core performance, good enough GPU for non-hardcore games/graphics, and absolutely stellar power and battery use. IMHO find a AMD APU based laptop that has a wifi card from some reputable name and you'll be all good.
> It would be great to see Google or Cloudflare use their infrastructure to provide anycasted NTP IP addresses.

They do. Cloudflare does anyway. time.cloudflare.com is backed by a set of anycasted IPs covering around 275 POPs.
Thanks for that PR!! We greatly appreciate it.
The irony of cloudflare complaining about blocking IPs is risible. Their entire business has been one of the worst abusers of ToR users based on their association of IPs to exit nodes.

Before you step in and go “captchas aren’t blocking!”, consider that the end result is exactly the same with just a different statistical success rate. Cloudflare has systematically discriminated against privacy sensitive users for years based on IP and now they cry foul when it happens to them. Hilarious.

Maybe this will have a decent outcome in provoking more interest in decentralization.
Depends on what you mean by "making that call". Imagine the situation: you work in a restaurant and somebody (falsely) published on the Internet that you have a highly communicable infectious disease. People are calling your restaurant owner and demanding to fire you. Inspectors come to the restaurant to test you (after a week, test comes clean, but in the meantime the restaurant must be kept closed, just in case). Local politicians publish interviews in local newspapers and TV demanding to create legislation against people like you who do not care about public health (they don't care about you or whether or not it's true, they have an election coming in). The local bank demands from the restaurant owner to fix the situation, in any way of form, or they won't be providing credit to them anymore since it's become too risky and their regulatory profile does not allow them to credit institutions with high level of risk. Some idiot puts a brick through the restaurant window at night. Insurance pays it off and raises the premium, because it might happen again. Eventually, the owner takes you aside and tells you: "Dude, I know you are a good worker. I know all this internet stuff is complete lies. I have nothing against you. But I have a family to feed. I have loans. I spent decades building my business. Let's just part as friends?"

In this situation, who took the decision to fire you? The owner? The bank? The bank regulators? The politicians? The people who called the restaurant, in fear for their health? The people who published the initial lie? Everyone participated a little, and by the end of it, there wasn't really any other possible choice. That's how it usually works.
"In mice". And, the effect size is pretty small.

The largest effect size I know of, predicting incidence of real dementia in real people (46,000 people over 70), is that a recent Tdap booster predicts a 40% reduction. Nobody knows how or why, or isn't saying. Apparently treatment for herpes has a large effect size, too.

It is easy and safe to get both.
... wow.
Where is the number of 40% from?

Personally, I think that living in an environment where free markets can actually exist and we can live in relative safety and security is worth far more than I pay in taxes.
I doubt this is relevant, as she apparently posted a series of videos with the claims. This was not a one off card reading that she could claim simply a valid interpretation.

While there might not be precedent for this particular issue, quite a number of people have claimed God, or some other religious idea was behind their actions. Never seems to help their case.
