LessPass unfortunately will end its LessPass database which allowed users to store their password profile (options which determine what sort of password to generate).

I've decided to re-create the LessPass database features but this only remembers the 1) master password, and 2) other options to the password profile - but only for a day. It does not store the site and the login, because I decided that these are the most sensitive parts, and making the algorithm to encrypt (and decrypt) these data is a chore. Anyway, it also uses HTTPS, so that should prevent man-in-the-middle attacks.

I basically needed something that would remember the options I've ticked for the whole day, instead of having to type the master password again and again.

One reply to "Would you jump off a bridge if all your friends did it?" would be "Yes. My friends are not stupid. If they are all jumping without exception, it's probably because the bridge is on fire."
You’re misunderstanding the quote. It’s not saying that you can’t name any individual number. It’s saying that any scheme you can think of to name numbers involving a finite number of symbols will have numbers that can’t be expressed in that scheme.

I echo the feeling of a lack of capacity to change things. Given my income level and current situation I resorted to the penultimate form of not tipping: No longer going out to eat, by and large.

It sucks, for sure. We do not have any no-tip restaurants in my area. But price transparency is something that is very important to me and I will stand by my principles on that matter. And since not tipping a person you are face to face with carries a social weight that renders such a move untenable I just don't go out for food at places that ask for tips in any capacity. I'm sure there's an argument one could make about my choice being harmful for tip-heavy employees that use that money to live on. But I have never chosen to subsidize businesses whose practices I don't agree with and tipping has hit a point where it has fallen squarely into that category. I'd like to think if more people thought like me, the market for tipping restaurants would begin to shrivel, but I have little reason to think such a thing will happen in my area at least.

Does this mean maybe we have a glut of restaurants operating in a preferential-to-the-business economic environment, and some might not survive such a change, maybe yeah. Does it mean those employees will have to look for work in a changed market if that does happen, yes. But I want everyone who works to be paid a fair, predictable, agreeable wage for the work they do and continuing to support places that are (I feel) diametrically opposed to that principle does not work towards that goal.

So cast iron chicken and rice pilaf at home it is!
I have the simplest set up you could imagine. I just use a Brother MFC-J4440DW printer, the same printer I’ve used for years to just print text documents and some glossy Kodak sticker paper. The printer was a couple hundred bucks and the paper is $10 for 10 sheets. I charge anywhere from $15 to $25 per sticker and usually get 4 stickers per sheet of paper. I then cut them out by hand using an xact-o knife. I’ve looked into automating the cutting process using something like. Brother Scan’n’Cut or a Cricut but I honestly enjoy the manual process of cutting stickers so I’m sticking to it (pun intended!)

There was a little bit of trial and error to get the level of printing quality I finally ended up with but now that the settings are dialed in it’s a very easy process. Drawing the art is the hardest bit. I just use an iPad Pro with the pencil and Procreate for that
The way your code is structured should never dictate the user interface. If that is inconvenient, adjust the code not the UI.
You're right that there's a problem with 'Let f be a choice function on...', but that's the problem the axiom of choice solves. Sure, it's non-constructive; you don't know much about f, just that it exists and f(s) is in s (for all sets s that are subsets of S).

The question is specifically what weird undefinable numbers have to do with anything; why those are specifically a problem.

Let S be the set of all non-finitely defined real numbers.

Let (Sn) be the sequence of sets such that Sn = {s in S : n-1 < s < n}

Am I allowed to say "let s1 be an element of S1"? Or "s2 an element of S2"? (Note that we don't need the axiom of choice to get a choice function for this sequence; I can easily construct one; does that change anything?).
Nope. It's not 100% exact with rendering vs the desktop version. Also, the browser version has its limits and is generally unpleasant in Firefox. I'd much rather use it in a Windows VM as a native application.
Yeah, all the ones close are private and priced similarly. I think there might be some council centres, but it depends on which borough you live in, and I think it's means tested.

I think it's hard to appreciate just how hollowed out the UK public service has become, yet we still pay a decent amount of tax relative to other OECD countries.
Fascinating. This is a great book:

https://www.abebooks.co.uk/9780711031449/Londons-Railways-Ai...

It shows major railway stations from above. As the photos were taken long ago in the 50s and 60s they reveal how freight yards took up most of the real estate around stations. For example, Kings X had a yard extending for a large area behind it, which is now the redeveloped area, the "coal yard", etc.

By this way, goods inc meat made their deep into the heart of cities. Presumably they then made their way to market via wagons, horse and cart or motorised. Unless the rail yard was in the market like in Smithfield!
Legal minimum wages which are a living wage seems like something that should be a bare minimum.
The legal department doesn't do discovery and evaluation. Its job is to ensure the contract is good for all relevant parties and stakeholders - not to pick the brand of the turbo encabulator you need for your IoT Web3 crane welder controller dashboard project.

I imagine you need to cross a certain combination of company size and project profile/visibility before legal & procurement aren't just sanity-checking and rubber-stamping whatever purchase orders the engineering teams send their way.

It's entirely normal to see engineers negotiating contracts at large companies. Large companies are, after all, mostly a collection of smaller teams that self-manage to a large degree.

> Engineers are kept as far away from the negotiating table as possible because they're to easy for counterparties to manipulate.

That's what the sales people want you to believe - to ensure they don't have to deal with anyone who understands the problem space of the product/service they're selling.

Yep, print and ship myself. The shipping can definitely be expensive for a single sticker depending on where it is being sent to but I charge anywhere from $15 to $25 per sticker (all original art and I think that’s why I can get away with the higher prices) so shipping doesn’t dent into that too much to not make it worth it.

Code reviews need to shift-left
An intriguing article, although my opinion on async reviews is much more positive. :-)

There are many arguments for both sides.

Pro pair / mob programming:

* Faster feedback.
* Less time spent on solutions that might be rejected.
* Better knowledge sharing (for those who participate).

Pro async review:

* A more neutral, "external" view. (Smaller chance of groupthink.)
* More empathy with future readers of the code.
* Encourages to make assumptions and decisions explicit. => Better knowledge sharing for those, who weren't involved in the writing of the code.

Once upon a time, air travel was only available to people who needed to go somewhere or had the means to do so. We're in a little gap right now where first class is diminished to almost steerage, but private jets are a little too expensive. It's probably a reflection of the widening rich/poor gap. There used to be a way for people who earned in the top 20% to travel without having to subject themselves to the other 80%. Now you really have to be in the top 0.1% to travel without the garbage.

The irony is that the top 0.1% and the bottom 80% both have shit manners, and only when you make the top 20% act well and put on their shoes do you have something resembling civilization.
Any podcast should be prepared and scripted to some extent, especially shorter ones. Especially good political comment/talk shows. Unprepared 15-minutes interview podcasts are just as annoying to me as very long one.

This relies on the moderator / podcaster to have sufficient time / manpower to prepare, or sufficient authority to convince guests not to come without any serious preparations.

On the opposite, there's a podcast from the German Newspaper Die Zeit that has made the long rambling its concept. It's called "Alles gesagt?" and consists in a usually unedited interview with two journalists. The interview (in English or German) stops when the guest considers he has nothing more to say or pronounces a magic word. Yuval Noah Harari's interview lasted 10 hours IIRC. It's decently prepared, but that's not the kind of podcast you can listen to regularly.
That sounds tiresome to set up. I would just install Windows 7 + Office version of my choice in an offline VM, then use KMS.
Safety Is All You Need
I see it completely different. Coming from the EU, I hate going to restaurants in the US because of the tipping culture. I dont mind leaving something if the service has been amazing, but then it might be 5e when the family have had a full meal etc. Being forced to pay part of the staff salary directly, with staff getting angry / annoyed when you dont leave enough is backwards to me. Its not that the math is hard, its about having to decide what your income is going to be based on how you work. Thats not my business to deal with, thats the management / workers business. I almost feel like it creates a culture of entitled people (Karen Generators), who believe they can do what they want.

Im also assuming that a lot of waiters dont pay taxes on the tips (at least when they are paid in cash), which would probably account for some of the difference in income between salary and tips. Here in the EU (most of the countries) at least we have good healthcare and education that is payed from those taxes, so you dont need to pay a 1k private insurance on a waiters salary.

But it's not a great burn, because the general turns out to be right and the scientist is wrong!

They are untaxed in practice, so yes, the most favourable.
Very much so, if you take them in cash and don't report them on your tax return.
Hey everyone, I have been struggling with the Prometheus Adapter configuration file for a while. Took a while til I tried KEDA, but not looking back ever since.

Wrote this summary blog post, maybe it helps others to reach this conclusion sooner than I did.

I did the table in Emacs (Org Mode), so it didn't take that much of effort: Org Mode auto-aligns the table as you modify i, and has plenty of shortcuts to quickly add/remove/rearrange rows and columns :).

(I did some manual post-processing inside HN text box though, as Org Mode doesn't support having single cells spanning multiple columns or rows.)
My dream machine when I was young:

-CPU: two MC68000 cpus, at least at 8 MHz.

-Audio: Z80 sound processor, 1 MB sound memory, Yamaha sound co-processor, 8 channels of stereo sound at 24 KHz.

-Video: 320x240 to 1280x960, 2/4/8/16-bit color, hardware 3d vector and texturing unit, up to 4096 triangles per frame at 60 frames per second.

-Memory: at least 16 MB RAM.

Storage: floppy/cd/scsi hard disk.

-O/S: Amiga-like UI, unix-like under the hood, multitasking, multiuser.

Standard peripherals: keyboard, 3-button mouse, 8-button joystick (2 ports).

Programming: C-like language with enhanced type system, additional functional and object-oriented features. Actually, I didn't know about this stuff then, so it's a recent addition :-).

Games: ports of every arcade game up to 1995 :-)... of course, anything else is welcomed :-).
> You know exactly what the price will be unless you failed 2nd grade math.

As a tourist to the US, it just seemed silly. The random sales tax percentage, the tip or no tip (calculated pre or post sales tax?) situation.

And due to the tipping thing, I had to carry cash, which I hadn’t done in 20+ years.

It felt like going back in time a very long way.

Ask for what you want, I’ll decide if I’ll pay it and I’ll come back if I liked the service.
As i mentioned above, do they pay taxes on those tips? Are they logged so the IRS are aware of them? Could this be accounting for some of the difference?
Except it's extremely demotivating for people doing actual work and getting paid similar money.

My first job was in an old newspaper printing business (this was back when newspapers were highly profitable and a respected medium). We had a few old people in our department who were basically kept there doing nothing because they didn't want to retrain on new technology but they were friends with management so they weren't let go before retirement. Which sounds super humane and socially sensitive. Except there were a few of us new hires that couldn't get permanent contracts because the departments were "fully staffed", we were busting our ass and making 1/2 of what these guys were for doing nothing. And this "fair treatment" wasn't there for everyone - just the people who were friends with upper management - basically if you paid tribute by inviting a few people up to the management offices now and then, bring a bottle of nice booze and locking the door for a few hours, doing out of work favors, etc. There were people who were laid off and who had to retrain to remain.

It was a sobering experience after my rosy childhood world views about fairness in society.
I have nothing against bars allowing smoking if they want, but having grown up with smoking/non-smoking sections I'd never willingly visit a restaurant that allowed smoking. I like to actually be able to taste the food.

But again, it's not that simple, because everyone coming into your coffee shop is going to be expecting to have to tip, so you need to properly manage those expectations. How the owner is planning to do that, and the results of those efforts, is interesting.

Edit: and while per the other replies many people don't claim (all of) their cash tips, you are supposed to claim them as income.
I dislike tipping because it turns every tip-eligible service interaction into a kind of low-key hustle. It drives a wedge of insincerity between staff and customers. Service in Europe with no expectation of tipping is a more human experience - it's just someone doing their job.
>Haven’t seen any top down government interventions work at increasing TFR.

Well, they've all been symbolic measures... but that's all they can realistically do.

In terms of education reform (the "give young men and women their twenties back" part), constituents of the education-managerial complex will fight hard to preserve their positions (making the education system more efficient would put many out of work), and are a significant enough cross-section of the population that threatening them will have electoral consequences that no sitting governments could survive.

And that's before you get into the tax hike/redistribution schemes (the "parents need to be compensated just as much as other economic value-creators" part), which will impact everyone else, and irrevocably screws the folks that are now too old to have kids (who, coincidentally, are approaching peak voting age).

For those reasons, proper reform is and will continue to be impossible for the forseeable future.
I typically use a credit card but on principle, I avoid places that don't accept cash.

There are many less fortunate people that can't get a credit or debit card and I don't want to support practices that hurt them even more.

The difference between sword and shield has never been clear. Unlike
many weapons it's hard to place cyber-weapons into nice "defensive"
and "offensive" boxes.

But also, code has almost all of the undesirable properties a weapon
can have;

A good weapon is single use. That way it does not become ammunition in
the hands of an enemy. For the same reason a good weapon is ephemeral,
and does not persist in the environment to injure innocents long after
the conflict is over (think land-mines). A good weapon is precise, not
indiscriminate (a sniper, not gas). And a good weapon is inflexible,
working only in the hands that wield it and not easily turned against
you. IEDs used against us in many conflicts are often fashioned from
unexploded munitions we've fired.

Cyberweapons (which include many things that look "defensive") have
all the undesirable sides. They are reusable, highly flexible,
indiscriminate and persistent. People who work on them will inevitably
see them used against themselves and their own loved ones.
>Ben Affleck's commentary on Armageddon is gold.

You no doubt are thinking of his famous anecdote of questioning Michael Bay about training oil drillers to be astronauts, as opposed to the other way around.

Bay's film's approach is correct, though. NASA had by then been flying payload specialists on the shuttle for more than 15 years, because it really is easier to train specialists in some subject to fly in space, than train astronauts an entire specialty for one flight.
Sure, but the OP's cafe literally doesn't allow tipping, it's not that they don't expect them. That's what's bizarre/noteworthy on this front - and it's definitely not how every coffeeshop in the rest of the world operates.
