TL;DR you're probably right :)

Ah, I see what you mean now. Sure, I can't absolutely confirm that, from a physical point of view, all locally-generated power is sent out and comingled with grid power. Rather, from an _administrative_ perspective, it's the case that I don't have any "exclusive claim" on the power that I generate, and my house's power is not independent of grid outages. It's quite possible - likely, I agree! - that the power that I generate is locally consumed; but, from an administrative and practical perspective (esp. lack of independence from the grid), the system "behaves as if" that is not the case.

So - yes, you're probably right!

> would seem to be a terrible deal for homeowners now that net metering is being phased out

Whether you're right or not from a physical perspective, this is absolutely the case from a numerical perspective - which is why I'm extremely glad that I got mine installed in the grace period during which NEM 2.0 pricing is still in effect despite NEM 3.0 being approved (and becoming active in April).

Similar here. I really wanted to play guitar and had wanted to for years, but 1) there was already a keyboard in the house 2) I think my dad thought it would be better to learn principles via piano first—so, I took the piano lessons, absolutely hated 'em, quit after like 6mo and never went back.

Stock price crashed. This effects the bonuses/equity of a bunch of employees, some of whom are on the executive levels. Cutting on employment is a very effective method to raise profits and help the stock price. It sucks but that's what the market (investors) like. This is just capitalism ...we've all signed up for this (I guess?).

I think a big part of it is you can sound good playing piano quietly. It's hard to play a woodwind quietly and sound good. Yes, the pros can certainly do it, but it's a difficult skill to master. They're instruments designed to project without electronic amplification.
Since you have the legal background can you explain how the CEO publicly stating in writing “Everyone exited was offered 3 months of severance, which is 50% more than legally required.” is not actionable at all?

Wow, thanks for the doom and gloom prediction about the potential negative consequences of AI and chatbots.

Eudora was great software and it's a damn shame Qualcomm dropped it.

It's also a shame the self opinionated autocrats at Mozilla don't incorporate some of Eudora's features into Thunderbird.

Since Eudora's demise we email users have been poorly served with the lack of decent email clients. I wish someone or group would rescue Thunderbird from Mozilla by forking it and make it work properly like Eudora used to do.

We don't disagree about Alexander's support for NRx and never did. Follow this thread towards its root and you'll see me complaining that the person who brought this email up tried to claim Alexander as an NRx-supporter. That's a stupid hill to die on; Alexander is notorious for writing a ponderous rebuttal to NRx, and, more importantly, there's a much more attractive, easily climbed, and trivially defended hill right next door, as the email demonstrates.

I don't know if we agree or disagree about Alexander and racial supremacism. I think the email lays Alexander remarkably bare on that front, to a degree you don't often see even from people who publicly affiliate with white supremacy. It's a hell of a thing.

Finally: you're right: I'm not much interested in Alexander as a subject. I certainly wouldn't have brought his racial supremacist email into a random Alexander blog post! I think the comment that did was justifiably flagged. But once that happened, and HBD-curious comments started coming out of the woodwork... well, there's value in being clear about what was actually said, and in not pretending like it's defensible.
I think the language is more of a feature than a detriment: much like Excel, it’s able to get non-programmers to do programming without realizing it. Both tools have a low barrier to entry and a relatively gradual learning curve.

All you have to do set up an AHK script is open up notepad, type a hotkey symbol, then some basic commands like “Click <X>, <Y>” or “Send <keystrokes>”, save the file, and double click to run. Doesn’t get much simpler. Loops and routines can be learned over time as needed, and aren’t necessary to meet most people’s use cases.

Once a severance agreement is agreed to, it is required to be paid. It is a legally binding contract in California. Employees who haven’t received their severance are likely to pursue Twitter legally, and their counsel has firm footing. “I don’t want to pay what I agreed to” is not a defense.

Ex Twitter folks should hurry up before they have to negotiate with a bankruptcy trustee.

Thank you - though, that would require me to build "checking my favourites" into a regular routine to remember to look for replies (and, more than that, I'd need metadata or brainpower-expenditure to distinguish "this is a comment I favourited because I want to check for replies" from "this is a comment I favourited to refer back to later"), whereas this approach "just works" with my (all-too-regular :( ) habit of checking replies-to-my-comments.

Though if this is considered a particularly irritatingly selfish behaviour, I'd consider stopping! I don't _think_ it particularly negatively affects anyone, but I'm willing to hear otherwise.
Not the original poster, but I noticed two things about MuleSoft. First and foremost the developer tooling - especially MuleSoft's Anypoint Studio IDE - is horrible. It could compete for the worst IDE experience out there and easily win by a landslide. It requires obscene amounts of resources (CPU/memory) and barely works with Hello World type applications. For anything midly complex than 1+1 = 2, be prepared to face constant freezes, frequent restarts and loss of developer productivity. Mule code is an XML based proprietary DSL, learning which isn't useful outside MuleSoft ecosystem. And this lock in / proprietary way is everywhere. e.g. Mule uses RAML (instead of Open API for API design) or Mule uses its own data transformation language called DataWeave which has a steep learning curve. The second and more concerning issue is the cost. MuleSoft is incredibly expensive as a product, and hiring good MuleSoft consultants is hard. It's difficult to justify it's price tag when there are better options available at lower prices (e.g. apigee/kong for api management). Other reasons include bad documentation, history of miserable support for backward compatibility (aka Mule 3 and Mule 4), treating other programming languages (python, java etc) as second class citizens in Mule etc

So I'm actually quite confused here, because Wikipedia lists and cites a number from the US Census which puts Raleigh's population at about 1.1M.

But, if we go to this fact table, they give that ~470k number.

There’s a big difference in how closely most people emulate other artists. Humans tend to want a distinct identify so it’s frowned on to use high skill to make something very similar, and they can only make new art relatively slowly. We’ve never had to consider industrial scale without the ethical concerns before.
Of course; it's the GitHub account that would need to be locked down in this case, and yes, it should be possible to do this automatically. The problem is that even though OAuth exists (which could be used to specify such an action during authorization), many services still rely on manually copying secrets around, which means that GitHub is not necessarily aware that another service has access to it.

They're totally fine.

Think of it this way: Amazon is still more than twice as valuable now as it was 5 years ago. Short-term investors will live by the sword or die by the sword, but long-term investors are fine.

The main problem is that everyone went nutty during the pandemic. The pandemic valuations were nutty, and the pandemic hiring was nutty. You could call it "irrational exuberance". Now they're coming back to reality.

I always wonder how people who are only in the room when things happen have any pride in their work and aren't embarrassed at their lack of production. A couple jobs ago was people who put most of their effort in to making sure their group of shitty engineers wasn't found out. It was a lot of work! Since they were all about quantity of people over any quality, they had to keep hiring more people, so there was a lot of time and effort in to interviewing to make sure they only hired other shitty engineers of their same ilk. I was hired outside of their scheme so we weren't best of friends lets say.

Supporting your exponential hypothesis, I noticed after my 5 year break from piano that I could still play scales at pretty much exactly the same speed, and I still had a lot of the muscle memory.

> Marriage is about bonding together, not getting a reward.

The reward of sex, family, and a lasting relationship with someone you love, is only half the story. That reward is paired with sacrifice: marriage is exclusive and difficult to break. One and one's parter are in it for the long haul. The price ensures that the rewards are appreciated to their proper value. It incentivizes people to be extra careful about marrying the right person, and to treat their partner and their marriage with the respect and care they deserve. Unrestricted sexual promiscuity with whoever is fundamentally incompatible with that kind of commitment.

The product already exists, it's called OAuth. All you need is an additional role that you can authorize:

- Report security incidents

Then in GitHub (or wherever), you have the aforementioned checkbox. So when CircleCI reports the incident, the GitHub account is locked down.
Let's look at your link for fractional reserve banking:

"Banks only need to keep a specific amount of cash on hand and can create loans from the money you deposit. "

So a bank can loan out more money than it has to loan. In addition to creating money out of thin air, that loan will accumulate interest fees.

It gets even worse when these loans are made to another bank who will loan that money out again.

No, let's look at this system, as I said, "from a distance." The entire system has X number of dollars in it and Y amount of loans. It doesn't take long and the amount of debt exceeds the amount of actual dollars that exist in the system. That is to say, there isn't enough money in the system to pay all of these loans back.

It's worse than a Ponzi.

I really enjoyed this video recently, Jack Conte telling his history of failed projects. I'd only heard of the 2 or 3 successful ones before, but this made me aware of his 10 or 20 failed projects, or projects no-one else enjoyed, for every 1 hit. I don't think it's a coincidence he had a few hits. Also the way he says they all felt the same while doing them, the wildly popular and the ones none noticed, is interesting. Also I heard Gershwin wrote 20 songs for every 1 good one. It seems people mostly fail, even the most successful.

> People are tired of job hopping to get market pay, dealing with bulls*t, and being thrown under the bus at the slightest hint of an economic downturn.

So it's cool for employees to quit and job hop to get better pay, leaving their former employers with the effort and expense of replacing them, but not cool for companies to lay off employees to save money when markets contract?

A better desktop environment. Let me elaborate what I mean by "better":

"Persistent project-oriented desktops"

Project-oriented means: I can have an entire desktop for say, work another for hobby, another for home usage. I don't want to mix windows/configurations between these contexts.

Persistent means: The desktop is like a physical room. It never "collapses" on its own, such as a during a restart, etc. In a physical room, if we place a chair somewhere, it doesn't move to a new position on its own. Similarly, given a room ("project desktop"), I don't want objects to move, unless I move them.

Despite having 100s of distributions, etc, there is no solution to this. There is neither persistence, nor good organization/segragation work into streams.

All scaffolding does is sets up a controller and views with some basic forms, and generates a model and migration like you would’ve generated anyway. It’s not like there’s anything unique or difficult to refactor about the ~6 files it generates, it’s just a basic CRUD entity to start building from. (Which , if you’re building a rails app, is probably going to involve lots of CRUD forms)
