According to the article

> The law requires that all library books selected be:
> 1. Free of pornography and material prohibited under s. 847.012.

s. 847.012. includes...

> (3) A person may not knowingly sell, rent, or loan for monetary consideration to a minor:
> (b) Any book, pamphlet, magazine, printed matter however reproduced, or sound recording that *contains* any matter defined in s. 847.001, ...

s. 847.001 includes numerous definitions (including a rather broad "Sexual content") many of which are devoid of exonerating literary context. I think the implication here is that many popular books like the ASOIAF series, many young adult books that I personally read in high school, and many important classics like 1984, To Kill a Mockingbird, etc. that I don't find at all age-inappropriate for a high schooler would all be banned from school libraries. Unless I'm having some grave misunderstanding here Florida has just made it a felony for a high school lit teacher to loan a student a copy of *1984*.

This is absurd puritanical behavior that frankly this makes me frightened for the US.
Something I don't see mentioned often is how much TIME tipping takes.

I recently visited Australia and realized that each transaction at a cafe/restaurant was very quick, perhaps an entire 10x quicker than an equivalent transaction in the US. You just tap your card and go.

Transaction time at cafes can compound against people waiting in line as well, especially if the customer wants to tip but the default on-screen amount is too high.

Would be curious to know how much time is collectively spent on these minor transaction decisions in countries with tips. I'm sure it's substantial.
If you understand how credit scores work, you'd realize that what you've experienced doesn't contradict the parent's claim. Specifically, having low credit utilization (ie. low credit used compared to available credit) and high diversity of accounts is beneficial for your credit score. Closing accounts is bad for both of these, hence why your credit score dropped. It doesn't invalidate the parent's claim that you can have good credit by just using credit and paying it back on time. FWIW I have a few credit cards that I pay on time every month, and my credit score is pretty good.
While I don't deny existence of mental challenges like ADHD, anxiety/depression,
IMHO these conditions are overdiagnosed and overprescribed by medical establishment.

I'm a bit neurodivergent myself, although it comes with advantages, it also comes with things that make other parts of life harder. Humans are humans at the end -- not a DSM-5 citation.

But modern media is somewhat designed to be addictive to generate ads and revenue -- endless content and scrolling, links...Im referring to news sites but social media is way way worse...

Acceptance is good advise -- I think each person is capable of adapting and learning to function on a high-level.
Also, the ability of GPT to have an actual conversation without restating the same over and over with Siri makes voice search so much more viable.

You can't ask it about a restaurant and then say "what time does it open" or "do they have pasta options on the menu?"
[0] - I can't seem to find the correct word to describe the set of students across the years who pursue a degree in a particular subject (e.g. "Computer Science") on a specific faculty. I.e. the vertical slice.

Many in the US would call it the Department of Computer Science. At my university this was within the College of Engineering, Computer Science & Technology. There was a dozen or so departments in this college, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, etc. There were other colleges like Arts & Letters, Health and Human Services, etc.
I have improved my chess quite a bit by going through John Bartholomew's youtube content.

* Start with climbing the rating ladder. He explains the basics and mistakes players at each level makes and how to avoid them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2huVf1l4UE&list=PLl9uuRYQ-6...

* Watch his games (ideally with 10minutes or more time control) where he explains his thought process behind each move and what he is anticipating. This is priceless!

* Analyze your own games after you play
Never depend on an employer for balance-sheet or income-sheet security.

It can only be had through ownership. Ownership is harder and riskier.

Worker-owned co-ops are the way to go, not megacorps.

Startups are special kinds of fast growth businesses that are rare and rarely successful. They exist, but there aren't many. There is a lot of money thrown at startups because the upside is potentially very lucrative, e.g., IRR positive.
All my home PC's dual booting linux/windows (3 I think) are set to think the hardware clock is UTC. Never had a problem, did that at least 5 years ago.

Now relying on that in a production environment ...
I’ve stopped leaving tips for anything that isn’t a sit down restaurant with a waiter. These retail iPads asking for tips are ridiculous. At first it felt awkward to zero out the tip, but soon it got better, and now I zero it out with no mercy. I recommend you try it.
>(Note: I was not home when the delivery was made...)

If you know when an order is coming, you could copy some of the older folks I doordashed for. They often left money for the drivers in an envelope on the door.
> I'd donate to charities on my own.

But lots of people won't think to do so, and it can raise awareness too. And in terms of payment processing fees it is probably much more efficient to include a small amount extra in a larger preexisting transaction and pool it up across customers than if everyone were to go out and donate $0.50 or whatever on their own.
A tipping decision is a decision in the end, which are drawing from a limited mental resource, according to some research. The way in which our mind typically handles repeatedly having to decide is by developing some simple heuristics and effectively running on autopilot most of the time, following them mechanically.

I could imagine a not too distant future in which tipping evolves into a quasi-fixed-rate quasi-tax, with only exceptional or atrocious service warranting a deviation from a cemented social norm.

Ask HN: Why do you find your job satisfying?
Are you one of the people that finds your job to be very satisfying? Tell us what you do and why you like it so much.
I'm afraid I don't really buy that. I know, having lived through the transition away from PAL/NTSC and (worse) VHS that people will make arguments as to how the old tech softened things, made them look nicer, softer etc. How such and such an existing standard is perfect, and does this, this and this to the brain. How HD is unnecessary and just shows off actor's bad skin and who wants that?

Habituation is powerful, and even if this effect you're talking about does exist, well firstly it's not going to be appropriate for every subject matter. Secondly the technological limitations which led the industry to arrive at that standardised framerate, the chance of that landing on some sort of optimum spot... it's just not believable.
That's cool, it's a PowerBox implementation. Instead of putting up a dialog box, then accessing the file named by that dialog (which requires access to ALL the users files), the system puts up the dialog and gives you the handle/capability to access ONLY the files the user chose.

Awesome!
Do you mean cohort or class? MBA programs in the US will use those terms.
Adults providing sexually explicit materials to kids makes it easier for same or other adults doing sexual things to these kids later. A boy sneaking a peek at dad's dirty magazine does not have the same effect, it remains a forbidden fruit. Now obviously Florida politicians have exaggerated the issue to keep their base outraged and showing up to vote, that's what politicians do. But the reason the outrage is easy to whip up is because schools have been ignoring good taste and common sense for desire of some teachers to impose their value system on young generation rather than leaving values largely to each family. And kids suffer because of irresponsibility of both sides.
That is a pretty fringe worry of tracking that places a major burden on the business. While I am no fan of the amount of tracking going on, I'd say this is pretty far down the list. You're still tracked when you pull out cash. Credit cards have quite a bit of protection on them.
If they were generic, not marketed (a la nicotine products), and used a system similar to the one used by pseudoephedrine, I think it could work.

I think there will be a really big systemic drive to stop this kind of system because if we’re doing this already for “vice” drugs, why not do it for all drugs even if they don’t get you high? This would remove tons of middlemen and give consumers a lot more control over how they get their medication.
In southern Europe, automatic 10% tips are often included. But the server will whisper into your ear that he doesn't see any of those 10%, owner takes it all for herself.
We called it "the smoke hole".
Hmm I doubt that. Why would they spend money on letting us run our own instead of owning them cloud infra where they can be the gatekeeper for subscriptions and also data mine us for advertising profiles?

There's little money in the former and much in the latter, sadly.
Fat is such a complex topic it would be hard to spend enough time refuting the last statement. But, in short it depends on what kind of fat (body fat? (if you're in a catabolic state, you will be "eating" your own fat; and this too has different types, depending on what your diet was!),trans,polyunsaturated,saturated,mono), how active you are, how much you consume, whether you're in ketosis/adapted, as well as a host of genetic factors,which determine your lipase production. Mostly agree on the "like steak" part, though that too would take a long time to, umm, break down.
I am not saying that tyrants are non-issue.

I am saying that this particular problem is not related to the increase of life expectancy.

The fact that tyrants are dying of old age at some point does not solve anything, if they have support, they are replaced.

The Hitler issue would never be as easy as killing baby Hitler.

I don’t think the FAANGs laying off 2-4 years of hiring changes that much in the industry. Seattle seems hard hit because the region has 2 companies in this category, but the industry is becoming a little more regionally diverse and many tech hubs are still hiring in large numbers.

> In other words, for a whole generation of elite knowledge workers, FAANG provided the ultimate career exit strategy. If your startup failed or you didn’t like academia or you were just looking for a second act in life and were decently good with numbers, Big Tech was there waiting for you with an offer that would land you a nice house in a fancy coastal city, a bunch of brilliant and friendly co-workers, and a comfortable retirement.

I don’t see this as a bad thing. I am hopeful of the “creative destruction” caused by the largest tech companies letting go of some tech talent so the smaller, more innovative, more nimble companies can benefit when they couldn’t previously compete with FAANG total compensation.
It should say "no tips accepted".
Just cap the max amount of minutes they can transcribe in a day or total. Then you will be asking only the people who find real value in it
And if the scrum master is worried about losing their job, replace the scrum meetings with retrospectives. Devops should have a lot to talk about in retrospectives (what went wrong, patterns, etc) and the scrum master can still do their thing so is more likely to go along with it.
How to Design Programs [Book]
Side comment, but the old paper-wrapped bubblegum cigarettes were elegantly designed with some white dust coating the bubblegum keeping it from sticking to the paper. And if you put it in your mouth and blew, it would make a puff of smoke!

The candy design was equally as good as the product was terrible (for all the obvious reasons).
It's not exactly monetization. It's plain dishonesty.

That killed plenty of guides before our current era of universal dishonesty.
Nothing gave you away: Austria (particularly Vienna, but also Salzburg) were simply the examples that jumped out of my mind as the best service experiences I had in Europe. We tip everywhere, even when it marks us as obnoxious Americans; we're well (over)trained by our culture. :)

What you're saying here, about tipping being exhausting: I don't deny that at all. I can absolutely understand the preference against it. And: Japan is a good counterexample: very good service culture, no tipping.
I think it’s fairly clear the monster here is the ex that took advantage of a vulnerable person.
Please correct me if I’m missing something. You’re describing a map where the key is a note and the value is, a linked list of banks? I’m not clear what the point is that you’re trying to make.
Interesting project.

Some advice:

1. Very few people care about a "free and open-source social network built with and steered by the community". You can't build a social network for just those people. It'll feel empty, and they'll leave. You need to attract lots of people who don't care about that.

2. Get rid of your landing page. See #1 for the reason. When people land on your domain they should be prompted to sign up, or look around. That's what a social network is for, after all.

3. Focus on making it work. Get to a MVP. Quietly open it to the public. Call it a beta. Don't waste time on press releases.

4. If you can't make it work, make it look like it works. No one wants to join a social media site that isn't working. "Eh, I'll join in a few months" and they'll never come back again.

5. Stay true to your principles! But keep it classy! Remember when websites would have a little "fork me on github" button in the upper-right corner? That served as a subtle indication that the project was open. That's all you need to capture the group of people I mentioned in #1. Here: https://github.com/tholman/github-corners
>If by this whole thing you mean Trump's conduct which is the subject of the criminal grand jury investigation which produced the subpoenas with which he failed to comply, resulting in the search warrant, yes, the conduct started before the investigation of the conduct. That’s... rather normal.

That is not what I mean. I mean they went to his house, took documents then later came back for the raid. Why didn't they take all the documents at the beginning?

>Clearly, the fact that they asked for risk mitigation until documents could be recovered demonstrated that they did care.

They could have taken them when they took the other documents or could have not waited months to come back and get them. It makes no sense that they would wait months if they thought there was any harm in Trump having the documents.

>Nixon Administration (1969-1974) records were not subject to the Presidential Records Act of 1978 for... reasons which should be fairly obvious.

You are correct. I knew Nixon had documents but forgot the law was created after him

>Because they didn't steal huge quantities of government documents in the first place, despite lies Trump's defenders keep telling and NARA keeps refuting, where Presidential library records held by NARA from former Administrations are falsely presented as being privately held by ex-Presidents in order to present a false “everyone else did it, too” narrative to minimize Trump’s wrongdoing

You are correct. I haven't kept up with topic.

>Because he actually stole a bunch of government documents.

So did Biden which is clearly what this whole comparison was about. I made a few poor comparisons with past presidents, but Biden's situation does seem quite similar. Which interestingly enough you didn't respond to.
A $399 iPhone SE that has gotten seven years of OS updates and is still getting security updates today is as cost effective as several bargain bin devices that have to be quickly replaced.
> On the other hand Chick-fil-A is able to make their employees act friendly. I wonder how they do it.

I would assume they make them do it via management, training, treating them well, and firing for non-compliance.
If a B hires a bunch of As maybe they are in fact an A at hiring, which is an incredibly valuable talent to have.
There needs to be some way to tell the device that the user is authorized, otherwise it can never do anything that could possibly be security sensitive - forget taking a backup; why should the 2FA app give you a one-time code if you could be an attacker?

Edit: Thinking about it more, I suppose it all comes down to a cost/benefit analysis. It's true that taking a backup of 2FA secrets does give an attacker more than a single code. But when that trade is leveraged against the legitimate user being unable to control their own device, I think it's a terrible trade, to the point that I'm not convinced it's ever worth taking. And of course my real objection is that the user is rarely if ever actually asked; rather, a company tells the user that they can't control their own device, which is unacceptable.
I've been to EDM acts where there were a few people chilling on the stage with the performer. They didn't really detract much.

There's definitely things on this list I find more obnoxious. And also just odd. The personal chef one I don't really get. Does no one else enjoy a kind of meditative pleasure in cooking?
Sources I can find suggest that Canada and the US are comparable (10% CA, 12% US). Your point is still valid that it's culture.
Depressing. I first read it ~11 year's ago after Occupy Wall St failed as I started trying to understand what might actually work, has worked, etc. I was reading about neoliberalism and ultimately Marxism. The essay is excellent but not necessarily better than so much other prophetic work in the Marxist canon.
If you want to see tipping go away, then the lower + tip minimum wages would need to go also. Some states it's as low as 2.39 an hour...

The problem is not actually the production of the fentanyl itself, but the way it’s mixed in with “heroin” or pressed into pills (plus all the likely accidental contamination from using the same equipment to process fentanyl and stuff like cocaine). If the mixture is not done well, it creates hotspots that can easily cause an overdose due to a much higher density of fentanyl.

And also, this part is not necessarily done pharmaceutically, so there is no standardization of dosage or strength. Which can in part incentivize producers to progressively increase the ratio of fentanyl to <other> so theirs is “stronger”.
Google's Fuchsia OS was one of the hardest hit by last week's layoffs
I started playing HoMM3 a year or two ago (zero nostalgia factor) and I've put in hundreds of hours since then, one of my favorites ever. It really scratches a lot of the itch of Master of Magic, with the tactical combat and spells, but much simplified city management and more variety in user-made maps.

It's actually been pretty threatening to my career how much I want to play this game. For years programming killed my desire to play video games, but now I can't make myself learn stuff on the weekends like I need to because I want to play HoMM3.
It forced me out of all my logged in instances. I had to login to everything. With my master password and my 2nd factor.
What you describe in your last sentence is, I think, exactly how restaurant tipping works. It's best to look at it as a 15% labor tax, with an optional 5-10% upcharge if you're happy (or have a general policy of retaining a reputation as a good tipper).

Another similar example (probably outdated): airport skycaps.

An example of a tipping system in America that doesn't work that way (yet) is hotel housekeeping; a surprising number of people don't even know that there's a tipping custom there at all.

The "quasi tax" thing sounds alarming, but it doesn't bother me at all; it's just another way of expressing costs and prices. Things will cost what they cost one way or the other. If tipping becomes so common that everything has 5-15% tacked onto it (I doubt it'll happen, but we'll stipulate), base prices will fall. Businesses can't simply banish demand curves! There is ultimately a market clearing price.

Agree that most of the data needed for a generic prescreening is available from lots of data brokerage (doesn’t necessarily need a credit bureau), but that DoanLaw.com article I read to verify my memory states that credit bureaus may legally sell some data points that can only accurately be sourced from a credit bureau.
Maybe. If you have the $399 upfront or the credit rating to get it on a phone contract. If you have anything to spend on buying a phone at all as opposed to having to use whatever hand-me-down device found its way to you.
If it did, we'd save a lot of money purchasing tanks, guns, F-35s, drones, etc. from China.
> US tip workers also get full minimum wage. Tip workers who don't meet the minimum wage threshold on total earnings are compensated for the shortfall.

So they don’t get tips on top of the minimum wage.
Man I wish I lived in your world. That said we have studies that show police rarely actually do crime-related work.

Seems like AI translation is will soon be good enough to explore this. Unfortunately, I think bigger barrier is culture than language and maybe we're not missing out that much in practical terms then.
Yes, “Chain of Thought” is a trick to make a model that predicts just a next word to come up with a conclusion that matches intermediate steps.

Still, model doesn’t reason, but rather provides step-by-step “reasoning” using the same “predict the next word” mechanism.

On macOS you can provide your own additional sandboxing rules to any random executable via sandbox-exec(1). (No, it's not user friendly.)
I should have probably clarified whether we were talking about to-go orders, because obviously you would tip at a sit-down place, similar to a sit-down restaurant.

For to-go orders, 1. and 3. are often because they use the same PoS (usually a Square or Clover terminal these days) for the to-go and sit-down orders. You are free to read accidents of technological convenience as social cues, but that doesn't automatically make them so.

2. is probably a true social cue, for either sit-down or to-go.
> If security is important to you, you carry an iPhone. That's a sad state of affairs, Apple has all sorts of problems and a ton of things I just find weird about the way their devices tend to do things and organize information, but it's just the only actual option right now.

Are you aware that the state of security on iPhone is even worse nowadays? At least on Android the system surface has been reduced to its minimum. In iOS, pretty much every system component depends on the OS update and nothing has been decoupled yet.
