Thinking in terms of the average consumer, I think cybersecurity isn't a major concern, but the hassle of setup is. Most people expect an appliance to do its job with minimal fuss. (This can lead to problems, like how car owners can ignore oil change reminders and disable lane keep assist.) But in general simplicity is a good thing - it reduces the mental overhead needed for home life.

For appliance makers, they need to have a better selling point for connectivity. Only a few appliances benefit from automation and remote commands (like thermostats and some light fixtures). Other appliances, like ovens and clothes washers, require physical presence at the start of the cycle, have a predictable runtime, have simple interfaces, and can't predict failures (due to a lack of sensors and cost of further firmware development). So connectivity isn't beneficial.
It's about that easy. Of course, masks are a-gonna drop, and flight attendants are going to put on portable oxygen bottles... and of course the crew should descend. But the whole plane architecture is built on the idea that you're trusting the people in the front with everyone's lives.
I think that is particularly what I like about this. With Prisma optimising your code is very hard because you cannot just customise joins like here. From the example, it seems that you can create joins and it also shows you in the documentation what the actual SQL for that will look like.

I still have Prisma running on my projects, so it will be a bit hard to move now particularly because it has TS native migrations, which is another issue. If I wanted to use these outside of TypeScript (let's say another service or middleware), then it would be very hard.
I'm a recovering nitrous oxide addict so this is interesting, but people should proceed with caution. I didn't know laughing gas could be addictive for some people until it was too late.

In the film Cider House Rules, Michael Caine plays a doctor addicted to ether for sleep

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cider_House_Rules_(film)

Google result: Is chloroform stronger than ether? Fluothane and chloroform produced similar anesthesia, and was 4 1/2 times more potent than ether.
Chloroform is great for extractions (if you don't care about the environment) because it sinks to the bottom of a sep funnel, but the thing about it being a knockout gas or sleep aid is complete BS.

Based on an unpublished study of about 4 degenerate chemistry undergrads:

- It PROBABLY takes several minutes of inhalation through a saturated rag to induce full loss of consciousness, although shorter times do produce noticeable wooziness
- However, full unconsciousness was not achieved in any subject because chloroform tasted too Totally Gross to continue past a minute or so (choking sickly-sweet)
- Subjective effects wore off within a few minutes, however the gross flavor persisted for several hours afterword much longer as residual chloroform washed out (along with mild headaches)
- Ingestion was not investigated.

So, in order to incapacitate someone you would have to force them to do really unpleasant for a long time, in which case you might as well choke them out, and the victim would regain consciousness quickly. And as a sleep aid it would likely need to be ingested, would induce sleep but not maintain it (i.e. wake up shortly), and would leave the user reeking of gross chloroform for long after.

Thank you! Yes with AppTrail we wanted to solve the pain points around SaaS audit logs but since it was a product that needed to be sold and integrated into B2B startups rather than the enterprises that felt the pain points and needed audit logs in their SIEM, we couldn't find a big enough market to sell it.

We realized that the big problem was that most SIEM out there today did a poor job with pulling and handling the data from the multitude of SaaS and Cloud log sources that orgs have today, and decided to build Matano as a cloud-native SIEM alternative :)
Not OP, but sounds like a nice way to strengthen their bond. Also, your comment comes across as snide.
> There are major problems with wage suppression and lowering standards of living

Canada's big businesses, protected by their political friends, and largely controlled by a few old-boys-clubs is to blame for that.

> dwindling access to housing and medical services.

Dwindling access to housing is because NIMBYs refuse to build any.

Access to medical services continues to be the same thing that Canadians have complained about for decades. Everyone bitches about it, but all-in-all, they are fine.

> The Canadian economy has become a bubble propped up by massive influx of immigrants to hide glaring systemic issues; it's not sustainable, and in recent years has become a growing source of controversy.

'It's become a controversy among the fringe-right' is not a sufficient metric for telling me that there's a problem. All sorts of normal things have a tendency to turn into controversies for those folks.

What are the actual issues? Money laundering through the Canadian real estate markets? That's not an immigration problem, that's a ML problem, and it could be fixed by not selling permanent residencies to 'investors' building sham self-dealing companies.
Synergetic Air-Breathing Rocket Engine (Sabre) Programme Evaluation Report 2022
SABRE is a hybrid combined-cycle air-breathing/rocket engine that, if successful, will enable hypersonic travel within the atmosphere and greatly reduce access-to-space costs. The SABRE concept represents a major breakthrough in propulsion technology, which could enable the realization of a reusable, SSTO launch vehicle (the SKYLON spaceplane). The SABRE is designed to operate in both air-breathing mode (using atmospheric air and on-board liquid hydrogen) and rocket mode (using onboard liquid oxygen and hydrogen).

Features:

The integration of an air-breathing engine with a rocket engine whilst minimising the duplication of equipment

Deep pre-cooling of the air used in the engine to enable the operation of a compressor at high Mach numbers

Use of the energy absorbed from the air to power internal turbomachinery

Use of the hydrogen fuel as a heatsink for the residual energy prior to combustion

>The "moral hazard" involved offends lots of people: "I pay my rent! Why should some one/freeloader/whatever get a free place to live when I have to pay?" Outrage seems to be the driving force in media these days. Which is why nothing will change.

I find it strange that you're just shrugging off the objections as "outrage", rather than trying to engage/address them in any serious way. I think the concept of fairness, and the fact that people might be incentivized to freeload are legitimate concerns. You might not think they're valid, but if you want their tax dollars to fund the social programs you want, it seems entirely reasonable that their concerns be addressed.
In the US two people must be in the cockpit at all times. If one of the pilots needs to use the bathroom, a flight attendant has to take their place in the cockpit until the pilot returns. This prevents a suicidal pilot from taking down a plane (or makes it much harder anyway). This wasn't a requirement on Malaysian Airlines at the time. (I don't know if the regulations have since been updated.)
There's no old evidence. You can go looking for connections, but don't try to tell me there was a reason to defend the theory to start with.

I think my favorite is still Asana, which calls its employees Asanas: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/anneraimondi_earlier-today-we...

Which contains gems like "exceptionally talented, mission driven, innovative and kind Asanas" and "once an Asana, always an Asana" — considering some of the Sanskrit usages are equivalent to "chair" or "seated posture".

Paypal is nice as a credit card proxy, I use it from time to time on low quality or shady e-commerce. Those website also tend to support Paypal checkout, removing the need to enter my details or create an account.

Their track record has repeatedly shown that you shouldn't keep a balance on it. If you're a seller, you should look into an alternative that has a functioning support process.

Not sure what you mean by that. You mostly get by with a <p> between paragraphs and the occasional <ul><li> or <pre>. And you’ll have the {@…} tags in any case. IDEs usually highlight HTML tags within javadoc differently, which helps readability.

Just noticing the medium author, this guy posts fantastic breakdowns of plane crashes on r/catastrophicfailure

Have to say the simulator part makes me lean heavily towards the pilot crashing it purposefully, from the article -

"The most widely reported piece of evidence tying Zaharie to the disappearance was a course he had charted on his home flight simulator about a month before the crash. Zaharie had a number of hobbies, including paragliding and flying model airplanes, but he also spent a lot of time at home on his computer playing flight simulator games. He sometimes uploaded videos of himself playing on his YouTube channel, where he comes off as affable and knowledgeable, if a bit socially awkward.

In 2014, a leaked Malaysian police report revealed that among Zaharie’s saved flight simulator sessions was a very odd route which ran up the Strait of Malacca, turned south after passing Sumatra, and then flew straight down into the Southern Indian Ocean before terminating in the vicinity of the seventh arc. Not only did the track resemble MH370’s actual flight path, it also contained a number of other intriguing details. For example, the track wasn’t really a track — rather, it was a series of brief clips lasting no more than a few seconds each, indicating that Zaharie had programmed it in advance then skipped along it to various points without actually playing through the entire hours-long flight. Furthermore, although initial reports indicated that the track had been intentionally saved by the user, later analysis showed that it was kept only in the system files, and certainly was not meant to be found. Was this a dry run? It seems too odd to be a coincidence."

What you say is true. The comment I was responding to mentioned other tech ceo's with a token or no salary.

Regardless, Cook already owns a massive amount of stock. The PR event, and the eventual rise in Apple's price will reward Cook massively over the long term.

It also paves the way for a dramatic increase in total compensation when the economy gets back to normal and Apple share price rises with the tide naturally.
NC has two apps: calendar and appointments https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/appointments. If your org is already using NC calendar and other apps, using appointments is great for allowing people outside your org to book you according to your preferred schedule and against your calendars. Cal.com has a few more features, but there are trade-offs. NC appointments is easily installed, integrated, and maintained within your NC install. Cal.com will require more work to install and integrate. NC is somewhat best in class rather than best of breed (The overall solution is great even though some of its apps are not as full featured). In summary, if appointments has what you need, you are probably better off sticking with it.

We've been burning hydrocarbons to keep warm and move around long before tech. But the future of energy (and thus of our civilization) will come from tech, not from looking back at burning wood and whale oil. See renewables, fusion and even nuclear.

Ah ok. I agree!
No wonder I was having deja vu.
My pet theory is that tipping became more common by almost accident. As the proliferation of various kiosk-based credit card processing machines took place (Square, etc.) where a little screen gets shared with a customer, the 'tip' step was either so easy to be turned on by the store/merchant OR it was even defaulted to on when the merchant applied for their credit card processor account and then the merchant just kinda left it that way; not enough people complained loudly enough or cared to do so, and so it stuck. Repeat tens of thousands of times across stores that opened or switched their CC processing over the years, even for places that didn't traditionally accept tips, and there you have it. Tip tip tip everywhere.
"Most"? Nope. Perhaps that was true twenty years ago, but it's definitely not true now.
I’ve been evaluating these two along with some other options for a project over the last couple of weeks.

If you have pretty much entirely static content, Astro will almost definitely be more suitable due to the lower JS you’ll be shipping.

If you need complex interactions and nice client side routing you’ll want SvelteKit. You can embed SPA routers etc within Astro but I feel like once you’re going down that route you might as well just use a more appropriate meta framework.

For something in between, it’s a toss up.

I will say SvelteKit is the best frontend meta framework I’ve tried so far. Happy to answer any specific questions.

As an overpaid senior engineer (not at Google), I wouldn't feel legitimate claiming that I'm victim of a wage suppression cartel. I know people who live with a salary ~10x smaller than mine while working more hours in harsher conditions.

I had a fairly harsh paragraph describing how I feel that we (the employees of the tech industry) are behaving in these times of opulence-for-us, recession-for-everyone-else. I removed it because it was certainly phrased too aggressively (against us collectively) and because I don't want to enter a flamewar.

Feel free to imagine what I would have written :)

It is likely impossible for the AI to be that smart. You are talking almost about doing pre-crime. The AI could figure out you're going to murder someone before you even know yourself!

But more seriously, even if the AI was super smart, it's still limited on it's inputs. The factors you listed are how the current crime AIs determine likely hood the person committed the crime.

This AI is very smart and people trust it. If it says you committed the crime then you must have done it!

> If you are convicted of a crime even if you had this free money, then likely you are doing crime for fun and not out of necessity, so jail is the best place for you.

> Cities may actually decline to convict because jailing people is more expensive, so maybe this would be a counter-effect.

These are exactly my points. Being marked by the AI gives you money, but people won't trust you.

If you're on trail it's this big weight people want to hate you. The jury isn't likely getting the money, why should this person on trail get it.

The judge has an incentive to incarcerate.

Even as a thought experiment, this idea can not stand.

No, because today you pick a number of iterations that takes some "long but reasonable" amount of time. Maybe that's 2 seconds, maybe that's 2 minutes...but it's the longest your customers will put up with waiting at login.

Then 10 years from now, CPU's will have sped up a LOT so that will only take 0.2 seconds or whatever. With normal users, you could update the # of iterations every year, but that requires a login to occur so that the "new" password hash can be sent by the client. With a user who only logs in every 10 years, you have to support the # of iterations that existed when the user last logged in.
