Maybe if it is regulated to such a tight degree; in American bars it's understood there will be "spillage" and bartenders are even encouraged to keep good customers coming back. Generally speaking, if you tip consistently well in most cities in America, and know your bartender, they will make 1 out of 4 drinks free for you or they will otherwise find a way to pour you strong drinks. They know how much they have to spill and they can justify it for a good customer. Only in Las Vegas casinos is this ineffectual, because the liquor bottles are all measured out electronically.
“They're all vaguely PFAS adjacent, but people seem to be lumping the fumes (from burning their pans), the coating itself, and the precursor chemicals as if it's one thing, which probably isn't correct.”

This is true, PFOS is not the same as PFAS, but the media already is fear mongering enough that politicians and juries are thinking it’s all the same. This is probably analogous to what happened with nuclear science, where the risks were worth it but we opted for more dangerous technology because of fear.

Safari is not competing. It only runs on MacOS and iOS. It doesn't compete on Linux, Windows or Android.

- It comes last out of the three major browser engines in feature support.
- It has the most number of bugs out of the three engines.
- It has the worst support for Web Apps.

Apple has deprived the Safari/Webkit team of funding for the past decade.

Safari places no competitive pressure on chrome, and has deprived Mozilla and thus Firefox of 100's of millions of dollars in search engine revenue. Apple has done untold damage to the web and this needs to be fixed.
Such as what other merchant? You're probably thinking of businesses which are not really comparable.
>"I’m truly scared of Chrome."

Then do not use it. I have it only for testing. My default browser is Brave.

> How can you compare two things when one of them is not available?

The example I gave is explicitly where they are both available. A hotel near my extended family, or a detached house from Airbnb that has bedrooms for my kids and a full kitchen for a similar price as two rooms in that hotel.

> most of the time hotels are better

That which can be claimed without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

I'd posit it's better with any amount of children, especially if they're under, say, 5 years old.
You should have a plan B. You cannot just go and say "I deserve a raise", because even if you do deserve it, your employer can still say "no". Given that scenario, what are you going to do? So, whenever it comes to "I need more money", my strategy is:

- search for another job

- be confident about 1 or 2 offers (maybe even go ahead and do a couple of interviews to be even more confident about your chances to switch jobs)

- ask for a raise as you would usually do (you don't need to mention you may switch jobs)
I had a similar experience.

Though for me it turns out the reason Firefox wasn’t working for me for some sites was that some sites didn’t work with ublock origin which wasn’t installed on my chromium. Turning it off for non working sites in Firefox fixed the issues for me.
The issue with code reviews is that most of them should be prototype reviews before you are even half way done, or design reviews before you even start. Or just dialog around some code or problem, along the way. Looking for quality issues or obvious mistakes after the fact is very rarely useful. I still think it's a good idea to have them as a sign off (e.g. so you at least have 2 people knowing what's happened), but other than that I don't think they provide that much value, at least not for people who are many years into a project and code base.

But still we do these after-the-fact code reviews because I don't want to bother my colleague N times in the process. So I churn away until I'm done. And then not to bother them twice, I also polish it. And THEN I ask for a review. The reviewer sees something polished and finished, and assumes that a) since it's polished I must have spent a lot of thought around whether it's the right thing, and obviously anything they can do in the review time which is never going to exceed 2% of the dev time, is rarely going to result in them second guessing that and b) since it's polished they know they'll probably step on some toes if they say "throw it out and do something completely different". They can see the effort. The relationship with a colleague is more important than even the health of the project. So they approve it.

The problem of course then is: how do you get from the "too late code reviews that they are rubber stamps" into a process of dialog, half-way reviews and iteration? Other than pair/mob programming I don't know. We say we don't want more processes, but whenever there isn't a process for this iterative behavior, the result is people developing for too long on their own and producing results that are too far gone to be shot down.
I tried to switch to Firefox as my main browser, but sadly the blocker for me was the absolutely horrible battery life on my Macbook Pro M1. It's like it's continuously running a spinning loop or something. It reduced my battery life to somewhere between 4 to 6 hours. I have since switched to Vivaldi (which is based on Chromium unfortunately), but I will probably switch back to Firefox if those battery issues are ever resolved.

Hi, I’m sure you would constitute a great bar neighbor :)

I just spend a few minute refining my thoughts on tipping outside the US : I would say it has to do with a relationship with money and the power emanating from it.

Tipping is not expected in most places; and doing it anyway clearly signal that you have some disposable wealth. You can afford to pay even more than the agreed upon price.

There is some “bling” and nouveau-riche aspect to it that will leave people a weird feeling.

For instance :
Are you trying to bribe them? Do you think they are too poor to function without your patronage? Are the price/money here just a joke to you?

And then, it become your edge. You are the guy or gal that pay extra. As opposed to be the funny/sexy/mysterious/resourceful person.
AKA : El gringo, l’américain, l’americano. ( I’m one of you now, so I can say it :p )

Being seen that way might be a way to attract the wrong kind of company.

I don’t know about casino and hazard games, my passion always has been the dives and the likes.

But you do say something important about establishing contact first.

That’s a great difference in my book.

I still maintain that waving money around FIRST won’t help on the long run.
Establishing rapport and discretely paying extra might, sometime, with some people.
But being nice and aware of your environment might do just the same.

I read somewhere that banning smoking on planes lead to a lot of deep vein thrombosis cases, as they didn't need to swap the air out as much leading to higher c02 levels.

But stupid shortsightedness aside; it was crazy, they needed to put the smokers (which was me at the time) at the back of the plane as that's the direction of the airflow inside, but the toilets were at the back so everyone had to walk through the smoking section anyway..
A mortgage is about the ability to pay back hundreds of thousands over an extremely long time period. Your normal shopping is a blip, and it makes barely any difference because normal people just use their credit card the same as if it was a debit one (the only difference you pay it off at the end of the month). So it doesn't tell me anything about your ability to handle real credit. What do I care that you pay off a 100-ish bucks a month by buying food? I don't think paying off your shopping cart is very impressive, and someone telling me "I've paid off my shopping carts for over 15 years" (which is what advice US people seem to throw around to use your credit card for) isn't going to impress me, yet this is what a company uses for important stuff? And at least employment status/income tells me something, rather than nothing.

Control over engine = browser differentiation = market share = search engine revenue
> If Apple is forced to open up, Chrome will take everything.

This won't happen. The platform default is one of the most decisive factor for the market share and Apple has a full control here. Unless they do a critical mistake at IE6 level, Chrome won't likely have above 10% iOS market share.
I never understood the appealing of Markdown for this kind of projects. At least on my environment, a presentation is a document that get send to different people, or live in a network/sharepoint folder were several persons contribute to it.

https://www.populationpyramid.net/japan/2020/

Projections have Japan losing 50 million population over the next 80 years. They needed to fix this population decline about 20 years ago. Incidentally their tremendous debt and basically 100% tax makes solving their problem impossible.

You can calculate the window in which Japan may pull themselves out of their crisis. Certainly not happening in the next 30 years unless they do something dramatic. It appears 45 years or so and they'll maybe manage to solve their problem?

The reality, they are going to become crippled and stop functioning properly.

If, perhaps:

* The tech layoffs were more spread out over the last year of the war instead of heavily concentrated.

* They were more aligned with the general economy rather than each other

* They were weren't concentrated in very profitable companies that have consolidated their position in the wider economy.

* They hadn't been caught colluding to lower wages before.

I'd be less suspicious. None of these are the case though.
For anyone making the "Apple is the last bastion against Chrome dominance"-argument: Apple is not in it for the web. Quite the opposite, more likely. They are all about control, not letting you choose a browser.

With that, I do agree. I encourage my peers to pull "hard stops" when they find that they are entrenched in their habits. For me, it was dropping social media, putting the "procrastination" timer on my HN profile, etc. But I always caution that if one doesn't gradually reintroduce the situations in which they struggled before, they will not have actually improved, just hidden themselves from failure.

I'm likewise sorry if I came off as dismissive, as that was never my goal. I was more concerned than anything. I am aware that a great deal of people downplay the impact of living with ADHD, and that can cause no end to frustration. This very thing led to me dropping out of college. However, I'd also like my easily-distracted brethren to see how they are empowered by their disability as well, and my goals were more to that end.

To expand a bit on this:

Relying solely "uncompressed" size does not a really good metric make (this is analogous to the raw input size of the LAION dataset): one could make a reasonable argument that there are not billions (1) of image-pairs that are effectively identical up to a minute shift. I would posit the correct basis would be the Shannon entropy of the "best fit" ordering (minimize inter-frame diff), versus the lossy-compressed video, and a similar "best fit" ordering for the LAION dataset vs. the model.

My suspicion is that one will find that the relative number of "smooth transition" pairs in LAION viz the whole will be very different from the video.

-------

(1) - Napkin math: There are about 194400 frames, so ~37 billion (37791165600) frame-pairs. Assuming you have runs of about 1 second between hard cuts throughout, so an incidence rate of 1/24 for non-smooth transitions, gives us about ~36 billion "smooth transition" frame-pairs. I think it is safe to assume "on the order of" 1 billion, then. This ignores long "action" scenes with significant variance in images throughout, but also ignores longer-than-1-second slower scenes, hence the order-of-magnitude shrink in the assumption as buffer.

> I never want to use that airline again, and would happily chargeback.

The problem with that idea is that sometimes Airline X is the only game in town for certain destinations. I have an Airline X that screwed my then girlfriend now fiancee and I over rather badly last year, forcing us to fly a day later than planned, with knock on impacts on our plans/schedule.

Airline X are a bunch of unregenerate, dishonest scoundrels who I'd cheerfully feed into a running woodchipper but the strongest position I can realistically take is that, where a viable alternative to Airline X is available, even if it's a bit more inconvenient or expensive, I'll use that alternative.

However, sometimes a combination of scheduling, availability, outbound airport, destination, and other constraints make it either literally impossible or practically impossible to avoid using Airline X.

So a few months after the unpleasant occurrence last year I had to use them once again for a one way flight because they were the only viable option. It pained me to hand over the money, and it pained me even more to watch them single out somebody in the queue for reasons that are obscure to me and make their life extremely unpleasant even though, apparently, they'd paid for the bag they were trying to bring aboard.

Scumbags. But I still needed to get home. So I can't afford to get barred by them.
I also had a air line charge my bank multiple times at ticket counter. Lady was having trouble with something and just kept charging them canceling. Many many times.

Showed up in foreign country with negative balance before I realized their was a problem.

Airline said charges would fall in a week or so. Which was true. Spent hours on phone with airline.
They did not care at all.
But I was stuck with wife and a new baby and no funds for a week.

I now have multi bank accounts credit cards and cash for traveling.

it's almost like that coffee shop will need to compete against other coffee shops in the US that operate differently and might be seen as having an advantage, comply with US laws, and - as they discussed here - communicate to customers their salient differences - and that HN is the kind of place that might be interested in such things.

Even not accepting cash is a security risk. Do you deal with your computer infrastructure? Card skimmers?

What about the background checks of the people who wrote the backend software?
