The amended regulations (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2022/984/schedule/made) refer to a requirement for connection to a "gigabit-capable public electronic communications network". And a "public electronic communications network" is defined in the Communications Act 2003 as "an electronic communications network provided wholly or mainly for the purpose of making electronic communications services available to members of the public".

So I expect that either type of service meeting the requirement on speed would be acceptable.
I would spend those wasted minutes by observing what’s happening - which agenda items are helpful, where does it drag on, are there patterns of who talks all the time etc.

Then bring up those observations politely at your next 1:1 with your manager, ideally with a suggestion of what and how to make the meeting more valuable to your work.
Not quite true. Openreach (BT) is regulated and required to let anyone offer service over their network.

Any other provider that lays their own fibre is free to offer only their own ISP service. I don't have access to FTTP via OpenReach, but can get it from one other provider (CommunityFibre).

If another fibre provider ever becomes dominant enough they might well also end up regulated more tightly, but that's not the case for the time being

As you said, you need to look at individual resellers/distributors and see what kind of QC/testing is being done on a company by company basis. Raw ingredients are sourced from China regardless of if they're expensive "designer" supplements or cheap generics. My comment was more along the lines of different formulations don't seem to have any difference wise, meaning that you can buy high quality generic creatine monohydrate at fraction of the price of something like Creapure(which is just monohydrate), creatine HCL, ethyl ester etc. Again, you need to audit who you're getting your supplements from - cheap doesnt always = poor quality and expensive doesn't always = high quality
I think the primary target is VTTs serving D&D 5e gameplay systems as an alternative to their planned 6e microtransaction machine in their upcoming OneD&D/D&D Beyond VTT. They want to sell classes and feats and spells etc. to players as microtransactions and justify it with 3d models and animations, but at that price many players would opt to forgot the 3d content for a system where they didn't have to pay... unless Wizards manage to prevent that system existing.

As a secondary target, getting a cut of Paizo's revenue is something I imagine Wizards like the idea of, but was not the primary goal.

Critical Role will probably just get a plain royalty free license for use in their main show as a side deal for the amount it promotes the game.

Oh yeah, I realise that my opinion is far from universally valid and that I both don’t play much tabletop roleplaying and came to it from an improv background which means I’m not necessarily looking for the same things that other players are.

Still I’m firmly in the camp of those thinking D&D focus a lot of attention to the insanely boring and uninteresting part of role playing - aka how a sword interacts with a magic shield in excruciatingly tedious mathematical details - and very little attention to what’s actually fun which is, well, playing a role.

I think its rules, its prevalence and the fact it’s mostly played in somewhat bland heroic fantasy settings have been a major turndown for a lot of people who would actually enjoy roleplaying so in a way I guess I should celebrate anything making it less popular.
Strawman.

37000 people die each year in vehicular accidents, but somehow people think there's a benefit to using cars, and to use them without making them 3X as expensive just to save perhaps half of those lives.

So too do we continue to use gas appliances because they're relatively cheap, effective, and resilient, and if you want to convince us the harm is too great, then quantify it for our judgement.
This is a choice, by the ISPs, unrelated to the physical layer. It would be nice if it were a requirement.

Reminds of a developer I hired through Fiverr that claimed he could achieve 99/100 Google pagespeed score for any Shopify website (and improve overall load times of Shopify). He implemented his changes, and sure enough it scored 99/100. However, the site still seemed to be running slowly when I tested it. I dug into what code he had actually changed, and there were only a few lines of JavaScript injected into the site. The JS was obfuscated, after de-obfuscating it I realized all his code did was prevent any other JavaScript from being loaded if it detected the user-agent was coming from Google pagespeed :)

After some back and forth with Fiverr I was able to get refunded, but I'm sure the thousands of other customers that gave him 5 star reviews have no idea.
I mean, sure, but nothing has changed since: "Broken Access Control" is still #1 on the OWASP Top Ten for 2021.

Non-fiction books really shine when it's okay to take it slow.

> In other words, it may be possible to build a home with perfectly vented gas appliances, and there may be a safe level of NO2, but in the real world—in the homes that we all actually live in—this is probably the rare exception.

This is a rather frustratingly blithe conclusion. Should we ban electricity in homes because they can be wired wrong?

I'm not entirely sold on the health risks as presented, but that the author doesn't seem interested in seriously exploring any of the obvious solutions to this (seemingly) fixable problem makes this entire analysis feel rather lazy.

The local part is important. We haven't ruled out hidden variables. Bell himself preferred hidden variable interpretations.

Methane (at the volumes we're taking about) does not have significant health effects; the paper you link speaks mostly about its effect as a greenhouse gas.

And I'm measuring my NO2 and it's within safe levels. So should I believe you or my own lying eyes?

Granted, a lot of this may be due to other effects (e.g, ventilation) and I agree my next stovetop won't be gas.

But clearly some setups are less problematic than others and it's not the case that everyone is poisoning themselves unless they go buy an electric tomorrow.
The Innocence Project estimates 1% of all inmates are wrongfully convicted:

https://innocenceproject.org/how-many-innocent-people-are-in...

Others put the range between 0.027% and 4.1%

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/how-many-...

> So then the next terrifying question is, geeze, how many innocent people have actually been executed?

> Fortunately it’s probably not many. Innocent defendants are far more likley to have their sentenced changed to life in prison than to be executed. Still, with an error rate of 4 percent, the researchers write, “it is all but certain that several of the 1,320 defendants executed since 1977 were innocent.”

Of the 1,320 executions over the past 45 years, using various estimates of wrongful convictions:

0.027% = 0.35 total (~1 every 128.5 years)

1% = 13.2 total (~1 every 3.4 years)

4.1% = 54.12 total (~1 every 10 months)
I feel like you are straying from the actual topic at hand. Rationing n-95 masks = "deception and authoritarianism"? I see the deception. The rest of your sentence I don't understand at all.
though any gas other than air will kill you at a high enough dose, methane is pretty extremely safe; wikipedia claims the major risk if you avoid blowing yourself up is that it can displace air and thus oxygen

I generalized. To be specific, the interesting part of liturgical and most classical organ music requires an advanced understanding of harmony and nuance that the typical average citizen of the Earth will rarely accumulate the hundreds to thousands of hours that it takes to appreciate in context. For most people, it's like watching 2700 ELO chess masters play without a commentator: hard to appreciate. On the other hand, for me organs are really fun to listen to so I will put up with classical and liturgical music even if it kind of puts me to sleep and because I've listened to it enough that I can deal. Frankly, sometimes the best part of the typical liturgical organ experience is during the time they are tuning the organ before the audience arrives. I can listen to individual pipes beating against each other and the tuning process a lot longer than I can handle something like Jean Guillou's Improvisations for Christmas.

More power to the folks who can stomach classical organ music though. You guys pay the bills for the rest of us who want to hear melodies we recognized.

However, the organ (particular symphonic organ and theatre variants) are frankly pretty adept at translations of music that is rhythmically and familiar to popular music trends of the last 60 years. In this case, the listener doesn't have to be nearly as intimately familiar with the trends of music between the 1700s and before the date their grandparents were born.
You raise a great point about air quality improvements. However, nitrogen dioxide, the irritant discussed in the article, is created with any hot-enough combustion process, since it's a reaction of the nitrogen and oxygen already in the air. Quality of fuel should have little to do with it.
Point-free composition can be more expensive and hard to optimize compared to anonymous functions, since you're now having to carry a heap-allocated closure around if you've partially applied arguments. Anonymous functions by contrast in C++ are super explicit about what they're capturing and you can be more sure of the allocations.
Survival here is being taken too literally. We were able to conduct our affairs (business and personal) without 24/7 access to communications because the world didn't assume its availability. Now the world assumes its availability. So now there are tangible risks to your business and personal affairs by not being aware of evolving circumstances in real time, but if you manage expectations appropriately and set up your life "correctly" the risks of being six hours behind the curve are rarely too important unless you're meeting other people for lunch/dinner (risk of venue changes). Despite our social training, the "news" is mostly unimportant.

I think what you're getting at with the helmet business is survivorship bias - the fact that I did meth recreationally in the 90's and came out with no bad side effects doesn't mean meth is okay for everyone, that sort of thing. But with 24/7 comms it's kind of a different dynamic of changing expectations en masse rather than a question of beating the odds.
any example at all really, will do
Getting the list of make targets by default is pretty nifty. As is not having to preface everything with PHONY.

Do any of these make alternatives reinvent the paradigm? No, but they do offer some quality of life improvements I wish were within reach without jumping through hoops.

I just hope this emphasizes that individuals should never feel guilty or shameful if they need to back out of a job agreement that they made.

I've heard stories of folks that accepted job offers, only to have circumstances unexpectedly change shortly thereafter, or to have a better offer come along. And I've seen these people have a lot of stress and guilt about wanting to rescind their acceptance.

Just remember, it's just business. I guarantee Meta (and all other companies) are just treating it as business, and you should do the same. I'm not at all saying be rude, and it's important not to burn bridges, but remember that when push comes to shove a company will never show you loyalty beyond what makes economic sense and what is legally necessary, and you should do the same.
Right, but this is different than if you see a tree that has clearly been hit by a bolt.

That is, seeing the strike shows that things are primed at the moment. Seeing a singed tree is not. (That make sense?)

That said, I can see how that still fits the idea.
This is silly. It’s fine to disagree, but millions (billions?) of healthy, morally ordinary people support the death penalty.

They might of course be wrong, in some sense, but they don’t “need help,” for crying out loud.
My dad is a professional cook (retired, but used to own a restaurant in France). He only uses induction. While he did not get the cheapest one, he did not take the high end either.

One thing to consider is that quality of the pans and pots. Nowadays while they are all induction friendly, some provide a better heat distribution than other.

If asking my dad, the main benefit he sees is the control.

Except that the data they can review against everyone using prepaid cards can be consolidated into a database and reviewed. If 90% of these cards are used the same way, it's fair enough to assume you're using it in one of those ways. If they're wrong, meh, who cares?

proper combustion will probably increase your nitrogen dioxide levels, not decrease them; if you have yellow diffusion tips you are getting unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide which will tend to reduce any nitrogen dioxide present

the carbon monoxide can kill you pretty fucking dead tho

Unless you live in a rural area, it's increasingly practical to track you and/or your vehicle by means of networked surveillance camera and automated analysis. It might even be that not having a device would make you stand out somewhat as potential malcontent. I don't disagree with your ethos or methods, but I'm not at all convinced of their sufficiency or scaleability, and think they place too much burden on individuals while settling for none at all upon those doing the surveillance.
So not being a lawyer and not giving legal advice, to me this seems to say that as someone producing something with OGL1.0, "you MAY replace it with a newer, authorized version" means that if you don't, the old version stays, or goes away entirely ? I,e. you then may decide to use another new fresh license of your own choosing ? Or it becomes unlicensed ?

Because if there is a requirement that at anytime an authorized version were to be used, wouldn't the language needed be "you MUST replace it with a newer, authorized version" ?
Probably a state law or administrative policy established this practice as both proof that the execution followed appropriate and customary practices as well as a sense of closure for the community/victims.

Not all companies give out payroll data. Better to learn now if finance/HR doesn't protect their employees and to decline the offer. Lack of qualified applicants ... or people have had enough. I do not consent.
I see.

All the "fun" of software licensing, only for pen and paper games. It's like we are already in hell.
One thing I learned from reading some stuff on an electician forum years ago is that the actual ground is really not that attractive to household electricity, mostly just to lightning. I recall them mentioning a video of, IIRC, someone connecting a 15A circuit to a metal stake driven several feet into the ground without the circuit breaking. This is also why things like stray voltage shocking cows can happen. I'm guessing that this might potentially be part of why electric shocks aren't deadly more often, it may not be just a path to ground needed but a path through ground and back into the circuit (although the current needed to kill you is much less than tripping a breaker and I think there are various situations that can make it easy for that amount to flow into the ground even if there isn't a good path back to the circuit, which sometimes there is, so possibly this isn't really a factor).

I was the last person in my family to speak to my mother before she died. I take her words to heart. For me, they were her last direct words to me.

When you become a ward of the state, the only people that will directly hear your words are the State, with possibly decades of life having passed since they last spoke to people they knew before they went in.

The State chooses to take the responsibility of sharing those last words with the world.

Last Words and even the last meal provides us a vision into the world and into their mind's state in their time nearing death. The currently top-rated comment on HN is someone using their last words to try and beg for injustices within the prison system to be looked at. We wouldn't have those words otherwise and the perpetrators would be even more likely to be able to continue their harm than if those words hadn't.

It's available in SF and Seattle and offers symmetric gig up/down with no cap for $80/mo. I had it in Seattle, and I have a good friend with it in SF and we both had nothing but great experiences with them.
>It was excellent for the money, but coffee snobs turned up their noses because it wasn't as good as ones costing 5x.

Problem with very cheap burr grinders is that burrs aren't very well supported and can move during grinding. This causes inconsistency in grinding.

I haven't looked into that wrt creatine broadly - you can get generic creatine monohydrate across the spectrum from cheap to expensive. In the case I gave, bulk supplements does heavy mineral and contaminant testing on their supplements but it's going to vary depending on where you buy the generic from.
England’s employment rights are much less beneficial to employees now than they once were: nowadays, in your first 2 years, you have no meaningful protection beyond what’s contracted, it’s not until 2 years that you have employment protection rights that prevent dismissal without cause — an employer must go through the redundancy process to dismiss an employee with more than 2 years service without cause.

If you’re at a company less than 2 years, your employment can be ended whenever, so probation doesn’t serve any meaningful legal purpose, it’s just an arbitrary structure a company can use to review employees and delay granting additional benefits. While you’re on probation, you’re still a true full time employee.

(Employment tribunals adjudicate whether dismissal is fair, and dismissal for protected characteristics is never fair, regardless of length of service - e.g: you can’t fire someone because of their religion)
Ages ago I had a slightly sad conversation with a manager in high tech mechanical engineering about this. We/they wanted good engineers but not enough to compete with the city over. Most of the expertise was very in-house, difficult to hire experienced people from other companies who would know the right things, so training up and retaining graduates was important. Hopefully that was a carefully reasoned choice.

Employee compensation economics don't make much sense to me. There's some factor in favour of maximising headcount which argues for many people on low pay instead of few people on high pay.

It's also considered _better_ to have your long term engineers occasionally notice the gap between their pay and the open market, leave, and then be replaced by new ones who cost what the open market predicted.
