> It took people decades to figure out they can print smaller, easily portable books because they did not have to be viewed as these precious hand made things.

This is wrong.

The first thing Gutenberg printed after the prestigious bible (which not only resembled previous bibles, but surpassed them all in respect of the regularity of the printing types), was the Donatus, Aelius Donatus' Latin Grammar book "Ars minor". This was a standard text book of the time. It was short (aprox. 30 pages) and extremly popular: There were at least 24 editions published until 1468.

From 1454/1455 we have indulgence certificates, which shows that the printing press was immediately used for cheap mass production, were "precious hand made things" were of minor improtance.

The next things Gutenberg printed (1455/1456) fell into the "news and politcal pamphlet" category: a 6 page long Calendar Against the Turkes ("Eyn manung der cristenheit widder die durken") and a 25 page long German translation of a papal bull also against the Turks.
> "allow farmers to repair their own equipment" - What a terrible state of affairs if this is an exception rather than the norm. :(

Blame your fellow 'I'm just making money' loose ethics type programmer, they could just as easily be making drones used to destroy entire apartment buildings or the privacy-intruding facial recognition with that type reasoning, but instead they choose to deny farmers from making the food that you eat instead.
What has worked for me is to do it as a hobby on my spare time. Of course that only applies to fields you can do as a hobby and place some heavy limitations.

For physics / real engineering, you can take classes after-work. For more physical jobs, you can do that in your backyard/driveway/other space. Obviously this place limitation: no super heavy machinery, and the scale has to fit, you can't exactly keep a full-sized plane or ship in your backyard.

Provided you have enough money, it's a matter of picking the right budget.

Some examples of itches I scratched doing that:

- photography (10 years ago, when smartphones weren't that good). I bought an entry-level professional camera and got started. Quickly realized I loathed picking and editing photos, but I now have a basic skillset about that.

- electronics. I have a box full of random bits, built a few random contraption that work for me. But getting to a real product requires lots more skills I'm not really interested in. I'm happy just having that box for anything I want to tinker with (and the occasional device repair by changing a blown capacitor, which makes me look like a wizard).

- bartending. I have a ~70 bottles bar in my apartment now (it covers a 2mx2m wall mostly) and can do pretty much any cocktail you want. I also bartended in a non-profit bar. I like the actual bartending, but the "bad customer" part is awful. Plus I know full well actual bartending is not well paid and has horrible hours.

- auto mechanic. Latest I'm currently in. I bought a 20yo car, rent a closed underground parking spot to keep it and my tools (big city, I don't have a driveway) and do the maintenance, repairs, and try to get it back to factory state. I also work on friends & family car whenever I get the chance. It's not the flashy things you see on Youtube, but it gets your hands greasy and you get to do it. There is no way I'd take that job professionally though: low pay, low consideration, nearly always unhappy customers because you're the bearer of bad news.

Anyway, that's my suggestion to scratch those itches without actually changing your whole life.
> How could Apple properly review something like this? Isn't it one of Apple's selling pitches that they'd review each app for malicious activity before it makes it to the app store?

They couldn't. Apple does not perform any meaningful review of apps for malicious activity, do they do it for rent seeking.
Ok i could be wrong. Was commenting after reading arbitration documents where respondent is referred as "The Respondent is Kevin Watson"

https://www.wipo.int/amc/en/domains/decisions/html/2006/d200...

"The Respondent registered the domain name <gail.com> on April 4, 1996, named after his wife’s given name, as a birthday present for his wife. "

So yes, looks like was wrong. It's his wife's site (A gift)
In the mid to late 90s, domains cost $50 per year, and you had to buy the first two years up front, so a domain cost $100. Nowhere near 25% of the cost of a new computer which were much more expensive back then.
But why not make cross platform? If already creating a file transfer program, make it cross platform. What're the complications?

Then you should still check to make sure the issue isn't there.
I wouldn't reveal your SaaS or any other current side projects. This gets messy with IP. I also wouldn't login to or visit any of your side projects on work networks or hardware. And definitely do not work on your side projects during company time or on company hardware.

Detail out your experience as skills in your resume instead.

You have the knowledge and abilities.

Present those skills as gained from previous projects that aren't active.
It slightly obscures the simplicity of spread to define it in terms of angles and transcendental functions. It can instead be defined directly, as opposite/hypotenuse on a right-angled triangle.

Likewise, we can take quadrance as primary; and, if we're so inclined, we can define distance as its square root.
What? That's the absolute opposite of what happens. More vitamins are retained in the food in a pressure cooker because of less water/more steam and less oxygen.

"We could definitely to a user-limited free pass, but we'd want to have it exposed only to new users, so we don't lose existing recurring revenue."

That sounds like a recipe for alienating loyal customers, if they find out they still have to pay, but everyone new does not. Then they will just cancel their subscription and also become "new users".
Considering the two risks as independent surmises that BTC goes up substantially (in USD terms) via some mechanism other than printing Tether, which AFAICT never happens. If/when BTC does go up you can simply short again at the higher level. If you're not sufficiently capitalized to handle margin calls you really shouldn't be doing shorts, but even small investors can do this trade by buying the BITI ETF.
Dick Pronneke (1916-2003) has likely been the inspiration for this, I would guess.
When I said 'most of Europe' I was thinking in particular about Scandinavia as an exception. They seem to protect the lower classes the best. West and South Europe isn't the worst (for example here in Spain we have great free healthcare), Eastern Europe is mostly really bad for poor people though it does depend a lot on the country.

About Asia and Africa, I have no idea, I have too little experience with them which is why I didn't mention them.

But in general I think it's a bad thing that the poor always take the fall when things go bad. After all social welfare is especially intended for the lowest classes not to fall into poverty but we're seeming to do a pretty bad job at this.

e^{it} would get replaced with \frac{1+it}{1-it}. t=n/d then implies \frac{1+it}{1-it}=\frac{d+in}{d-in}.

RT boils down to doing trigonometry with dot products and without square roots. There's a temptation to replace dot products with ordinary trigonometry, but RT says don't do it because it's a step back.

Almost certainly not.

The entire concept of equality, and civil rights for all, is a creation of the Wester European Enlightenment with no precedent or counterpart elsewhere.

To put another way, slavery has been present in every human society throughout recorded history. The only ones to have ended it across the board are a) the Roman Empire under Christianity, and b) the UK, France, US, and Brazil (roughly in that order) in the 19th century.
The core of the web is a system to display a page of static page with one or two images in a single rendering pass.

SPAs etc. are insanely complicated and complex attempts to bend this into something it's not, and can never be.

The reason people are so excited about WebGL and upcoming WebGPU is that they will be freed of constraints of this model (but forget about the constraints of doing low level graphics)
Swiss bureaucracy is expensive but it’s swift, easy, and very cordial. I’ve never lived anywhere that was so good on paperwork. Exchange my non EEU drivers license? A week flat and about 100.-. Getting a residence permit? 100.- approx and less than two weeks. Questions about your tax return or filing? An email to the cantonal tax office and you’ll get an (encrypted answer) within a few days.

That’s only about the government though, private companies are hilariously terrible at customer service or paperwork especially compared to US/Canada.

I cant read TFA but i think if John Deere wants to maintain control over the way machines are repaired they should simply stop selling them as retail and move to a "machine as a service" model.

I think a lot of farming machinery has moved this way already where you dont pay to own a machine that you may only need a limited number of days/year.
Heh. I picked up git in college because I wanted to hack on the Linux kernel. Once I grokked git's simple data model, I have never run into problems with it. On the other hand, I've had to use Perforce professionally and I find it unbearable. It lacks features and everything is just convoluted and ridiculously slow in comparison. Thankfully I can avoid having to deal with Perforce using a git wrapper.
I did, because I don't want anything to do with Meta. Back when I used it I typed up a copypasta with the links to installers for the platforms I would be available on from then on. Since then I set up a Matrix server with double puppets for those services to add a layer of obscurity (to throw off surveillance from those platforms, their apps are no longer installed anywhere) and to consolidate all messaging to a single app.

Works well for me, but then a majority of people I talk to already had alternative platforms or installed them for my sake. The people who didn't bother aren't people I had that close a relationship with anyway.

What killed stadia (IMO) was that you could not access your existing steam library.

Also, the author of that paper wasn't aware that Google had a stint around that time buying up DRAM chips that had failed manufacturer's QA and sticking them on DIMMs themselves, trying to clock them slow and use ECC to get cheaper, mostly working memory. It was a poor choice and Google stopped the process AFAIK.

As long as GPT is just a fancy bullshit generator that is able to make up convincing looking facts without having to worry about repercussions I will not trust its reasoning.
I don't see how that would help: e^(i*√s) is only further analyzable when s is the square of a rational number, but even then it won't help you go further: e^i*k is not rational (k≠0). In something like DFT or FIR analysis, it wouldn't help to work with spread instead of angle, I think. Integrating over s^2 only adds more steps, and I also don't see how it could help numerical approximation.
We also ran the experiment with the native Linux rsync, i.e syncing Linux to Linux, to rule out issues with Cygwin. Linux rsync performed on average 35% worse than Cygwin rsync, which can be attributed to CPU differences.

> Oslo in a 45 sq. m. flat

While I live in Sweden (about 4 hours away from Oslo by train), I think the two countries are sufficiently similar that I can mention some of my experiences moving here from the US.

Many apartments here have a shared laundry room/area, with washer and dryer, or drying cabinet/room, and place to iron/fold.

I think just about every apartment also has a storage area, either in the basement or the attic. For us this is about 10 sq. m.

Many apartments have access to a common area that can be booked for parties or other larger events. Two rooms with kitchen is pretty common. Some have a bookable sauna, that isn't common. I've also seen places with a bookable guest rooms, which reduces the need for everyone to have a guest bedroom.

Many have some sort of green space with a play area for the kids. Some have an enclosed courtyard where residents can have their own garden. Some have a gazebo, or grill area, and one new construction here has a freestanding shared conservatory (labeled "orangery", but without any orange trees).

We don't have this, but we are a block from a small park and four blocks from a couple good play areas.

Even with these, the result is certainly not as spacious as the house you describe. Rather, I wanted highlight there might be some additional aspects of the Oslo flat which aren't reflected in your summary.

While researching what I wrote I found https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arealberegning_av_bygninger with a chart showing "Size in relation to primary area and number of people in the household - Area standards" ("Størrelse i forhold til primærareal og antall personer i husholdning - Arealnormer"). It puts 45 sq. m. for 2 people as "cramped", with the lower range for "normal" being 55 sq. m. Above 100 sq.m. for 2 people is "spacious" and above 150 sq. m. is "very spacious."

You are right too about kitchen and toilet. In the late 1800s there would have been one shared well, for the apartment building, with a shared toilet. I've read that people would have kept a pig or other animals in the courtyard. And one of the buildings here was the first worker-owned apartment building in town. The historical sign on it says it had a shared kitchen for all the residents.

Browsers wrap lines automatically, so line width can be chosen by the reader, and even varied depending on the situation (the same applies to font, size, colours, etc.).
People are absolutely right when they try to get the maximum personal profit (e.g. time) for the least resource investment (i.e. working) from a company that employs them. It's thinking like a capitalist business, just on a personal level. I don't see an issue with that, on the contrary, it's perfectly acceptable and normal to do this. Be as efficiently lazy as you can for the maximum outcome, like a true capitalist.
immigrant is a person legally or illegally coming over here and stealing all our jobs and taking all our benefits and not even working or speaking the language.

Man I miss backspacing through a URL and sometimes hitting an FTP page with files I wasn't necessarily supposed to be able to download. Halcyon days.
I don't know why you're going on about people "loving" bicycling and supposedly being hypocritical. I wouldn't say Dutch people particularly love bicycling, but it's the sensible mode of transport in many places, so people are willing to (not love to) do it. Dutch people aren't meaningfully different - we're all just humans, and work largely the same as other people. There's no reason Dutch people are somehow so unique that they're the only place people would be willing to ride a bicycle. The main thing that is different, though, is that the conditions are different in the Netherlands, in particular infrastructure.

(But also keep an eye on other Western European cities. Many are making great strides in terms of infrastructure, and cycling is seeing more uptake.)

You could say the same thing about locks, police, military. Those are way more wasteful and also just exist due to bad actors. I don't think there's a way around this, it'd be like wishing for no predators in nature so that natural evolution could just do the "good parts" and not have to optimise for survival.

If you rinse vegetables well most pesticide residue will be removed. Also, some vegetables that are peeled remove that exposure route as well.

There are studies showing some kinds of organic products are worth buying because of the reasons you mention, but others are not.

I think the more you can buy food that you trust the better. This doesn't mean growing your own, it means learning more about where your food is coming from and the chain of producing and selling it. It may mean going to smaller shops, more trips, farmers markets etc. It may just mean reading about brands etc.

I think many people are wrestling with similar questions as you; you're not alone.

Using saturated or monounsaturated fats or oils are your best bets for sauteing. You can also braise things, in some kind of liquid.
The English speaker divides humans into 3 categories:

- White people with the burden (see: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_White_Man's_Burden )

- White people without the burden

- People of colour

When a person in the first category moves to another country, they are an expat; people from the other 2 categories are immigrants or migrants, as they prefer to say nowadays.

For instance I’d have to take a significant pay cut if I wanted to be the British prime minister but, belonging to the second category, I am an economic migrant. An American or Swedish teenager working in a Starbucks in Berlin is an expat.

If by "we" you mean the internet, it seems most people still use "syncing" rather than "synching": https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=syncing,...

Still, "syncing" is supposed to be shorthand for "synchronizing", which has the "h" you feel comes out of nowhere. So I guess both makes sense, but I don't use that form myself nor have seen anyone else use it in the wild.

Read the Sam Altman vision of the future. It's brilliant and highly utopian.
Corporations and wealthy will not accept high taxation over property and assets. But AI will reduce jobs dramatically.

So, I will work using my current skill set and happily move away from this madness.

Incorporating AI into workflow? No.

In this rate of innovation and adaptation, the short products' lifecycle will diminish any long term effect.

The bottom line is: Those who have more labeled data to train on, will win.

I don't have data. I don't have access to capital. The only capital I have is the knowledge and experience.

Joke aside, woodworking and gardening is real.
I plan to learn C and C ++.
The market for supporting old systems is big. Huge.
What do you find weird in the tone? I find it succinct, confirming they were already aware of the issue and that they are already working on a (bulk) solution.

yeah so, I guess you're saying let it have free reign over us until we figure out how we feel about it. wonderful.

Emphatically no. The absolute vast majority of those "polished dropdowns" are horrible to use, and break all possible platform conventions (for example, not accessible or usable with a keyboard)

Very few, if any, "polished controls" used on the absolute vast majority of web sites require javascript.

In the UK I recall being quoted about £200 a year for a domain (this may have been direct from nominet or non-consumer company for a UK one - as I mentioned the services in the mid-late 90s were less developed and it was harder to just buy online, especially without a credit card which you cannot have in the UK when under 18). Our pentium PC was £899 IIRC.
"manufacture is easier and cheaper" is to me one of the benefits we should no longer consider when thinking "Should it be made of plastic?". These seem to be the driving factor of "Outdoor clothes", "Shoes. Bookbinders, covers, cases" being made of plastic.
