Trying to avoid tracking on the modern web is a losing battle for any but the most hyperparanoid, consistently careful, and technically astute individuals.

For everyone else: you're going to leak identity information one way or another, and it's going to get correlated. The more plugged-in and connected you are, the harder it is to remain anonymous.

If you really value your privacy, don't use the internet or any types of computers, including phones, and never go outside.

On the subject, the last recorded duel in France took place as late as 1967 and between two sitting MPs/Representatives because of an insult uttered in the Chamber.

Article in French with a picture of the duel, fought with swords: https://www.lemonde.fr/m-moyen-format/article/2017/04/21/il-...

"le facétieux Defferre ne manquait pas de rappeler qu’il avait visé l’entrejambe de son adversaire pour lui gâcher sa nuit de noces, celui-ci se mariant le lendemain."

Essentially: "I aimed between his legs to spoil his wedding night", as one of the MPs was due to wed the day after the duel.
It's not my thing, I didn't make it, for one.

Then just use CSS at that point, it's been here 20+ years then. I simply don't understand how it can be superior to regular CSS in any way simply because it maps one to one onto CSS properties anyway.

Electrical trucks you can buy and drive right now. No reason to wait. Electrical highways (except for an expensive and impractical test range in Germany) don't exist and won't exist for many years to come.

There's nothing economical about installing lots of infrastructure on tens of thousands of kilometers of highways (what about other roads?).
Email is in profile; I'm happy to send you screenshots. I regularly get 2 ads back-to-back, and I recently got three in a row.

I typically bail when I see two in a row, in a vain attempt to send the message that multiple ads back-to-back is not cool.

edit: just logged in and of the first 20 timeline items, 9 were ads (including two cases of back-to-back ads). It's basically half of what I see.
Sure, i use epy[1] and every month i d/l my books from amazon that i have bought, dedrm[2] through calibre and save the epubs to a folder. Its not a particularly arduous task.

When i want to read i have an alias setup along the lines of:

epy "$(fzf)"

its a nice interface ;-)

Now i don't often read full books in the terminal, BUT i do like being able to reference bits that i remember at a VERY quick speed. I recently was talking to somoene about biases we bring to statistics and could remember reading a great anecdote about it, using rga[3] i was able to bring up the passage VERY quickly in the terminal

Like most great cli tools, its about the workflow

FWIW I think the T14 is an exceptionally badly made thinkpad. It was one of their first AMD thinkpads, and it was positioned firmly as a 'budget' machine. I really think it was rushed to market to take advantage of those mobile ryzens.

I bought a couple of them for some of my team (for the better graphics in Linux). The controller firmware it came with scanned rows and columns of the keyboard matrix at completely different frequencies, which created this weird interference pattern where it would randomly swallow keypresses if you pressed them at just the right time. It sucked, it made the laptop keyboard unusable.

They did fix it eventually though, and I guess updating your controller firmware might help your trackpad issues. I'm a trackpoint fanboy so I don't know for sure. FWIW I'm a big fan of both the X1C line and the X1E/P1. My primary laptop for last 3-4 years had been a p1 gen

I concur. It's not just children, women are afraid to walk alone at night, when men are way more likely than women to incur violent attack from strangers.

Women and children are almost always preyed upon by people who know them, not strangers.
That's not correct - for an extremely good dinner, room and multi-course breakfast we've always been about £450 for two people - which includes the dinner at £85 pounds each (on the website), wine etc.

So its not really that expensive and actually quite good value compared to a lot of places - it is a treat after all, not somewhere you'd go every weekend.

NB I've no connection to the place other than really liking it.
If it's real innovation, like jQuery imperatoveness to React et Al's declarativeness, sure I'd agree with you. But Tailwind is simply not innovation, it's at best repackaging normal CSS properties that when composed together act just like...regular CSS classes. So there's literally no point in using them.

The Java license costs per employee. Not per developer. That's an entirely different business model in a very different market for a very different tool.

The money is just too good to put aside. Plus, the cost of housing has gotten through the roof, so you'd have to be a real and committed idealist (or to have family money) in order to shun that type of compensation coming your way.

If it matters I'm in my early 40s and I have left money on the table in the past because of said idealism, but if I were to be a 20-something again and especially in today's market I'm not sure I would do the same thing.
The problem with Tesla right now is Elon Musk. I know a few people FIRST HAND who sold their Tesla or decided to buy a different brand EV because of Elon's behavior. I doubt conservatives are interested in EV market. Liberals were Elon's core loyal customer. That's my 2 cents.
I’m also unsure because if it’s to custom tailor bots and integrate them for custom business needs, like a support channel, this technology sounds too powerful for this because you’ll constantly be looking after them to not be steered out of their purpose. See also Microsoft Bing. Microsoft is fine with spending resources on that because they want to kill Google. But I think for these purposes, a powerful “stupid” bot (there are many services for these) would make more sense than a generic one with vast “skill sets”.
What I have been doing for years is getting something like buying Lenovo Thinkpads W520 or W530 or better the P50. Older but powerful models. The P50 get you Intel Core i7 6820HQ you can get the in the refurnished market, with 32 GB. Upgrade them to 512 or 1 TB SSDs. You get a NVIDIA Quadro M1000M at least.

Keyboard is great, robust and the critical thing is: As you buy them in the refurnished market, the budget you allocate for what would be a new laptop allows you to buy 3 or 4. It's great because you always then have a spare ready to go in case of hardware issues. You can keep one with Linux and another with Windows if you need it, instead of dual booting.

There is also another important advantage. These have no issues with thermal management and don't get hot. Something all my other colleagues with other brands and powerful laptops always seem to complain about. I guess Apple of course would be the exception, but I am not into the Apple ecosystem.
For some, I think they reached a state of it being so flexible that other concerns, like proper typesetting in this case, are simply not important. This hasn't happened for me, at least, who tried once or twice to try to use Emacs as a mail client. There was more massive unknown tradeoffs as opposed to just using a dedicated GUI client or webmail, particularly in relation to the type of email people send (heavy HTML emails sent by default from email clients.)

Regardless, I do like a lot of things being in the terminal and tend to reach for that first or Emacs dired even for even basic file manipulation instead of the Dolphin (KDE's file manager) just because of habit. It's just easier in a lot of cases.
While these projects may add additional complexity and potentially detract from the simplicity of functional CSS, they can still be a valuable option in comparison to traditional CSS architectural paradigms like BEM: http://minid.net/2019/08/12/in-defense-of-functional-css/

I'm from a first world country in Europe and I can count the number of spam calls I got over the years on one hand (literally 2).

Same goes for spam texts (3).

For legal reasons my phone number could be found on the open web for years.

With a fairly wealthy population (by world standard) and a language spoken by ~100 million people there should be ample opportunities to spam people.

Yet even my parents whose number were listed in the phone book get maybe 1 or two spam calls per year

I actually agree with your analysis, too. It must honestly be both a case of treating employees as liabilities and idiotic planning.

I have never understood layoffs, especially where the companies start re-hiring immediately after. I was at a startup that did insane hiring and then performed layoffs. They pitched it as employees not performing, but what had really happened is that the upper management overhired because of growth hype and then never correctly trained and onboarded employees. I didn't get laid off, but I literally got moved from one team to a new team only for the new team to be disbanded and merged back into my original team, all within like four months. Even with all that going on, I got switched between projects like every month. Like, how is your planning that bad that that happens?
I did this and showed them and they thought it was great I was doing something with my time that was not fucking about with their network.

I had a customer for years, was on retainer for a few thousand dollars a month. I knew their systems inside and out, managed their hosting infrastructure. They couldn't hire anyone to take over -- not a glamorous business, didn't offer competitive salary, not a great workplace (I worked remote). I reported to the COO and all was good, I would deal with whatever problems came up and implement whatever upgrades or enhancements they needed.

The COO left and the CEO/founder took over. I didn't have much day-to-day interaction with him before that. He called a meeting and told me I had to start submitting detailed invoices and charging hourly. I said no, I preferred the retainer arrangement and they got guaranteed priority response from me in return, and no unpredictable monthly bills. He then asked "What exactly are we paying you for?" I said they were paying me not to quit. He didn't exactly like hearing that, but after he talked to his managers he dropped the issue, and I kept the gig on retainer for two more years, until I fired them for asking me to do something legally questionable and definitely unethical.
Thank you for pointing this out, me being not a native speaker this possibility has not occured to me. I will think about re-designing or re-naming the project.

A bit of context: Initially, the project's name was "text2product.com", but then someone created a very similar website replacing the 2 with to and I was basically forced to rename my project.
No, the person creating the fake ad is guilty of fraud. Google is guilty of not verifying it enough.

Same as Apple/Google aren't guilty of creating malware apps then it slips through, but the predatory ass who coded the app and published it is. Same as Walmart isn't guilty of poisoning people when they stock a product that's spoiled in production, but merely failing to verify proper credentials set up by regulators.

I don't know why so many people here and elsewere refuse to hold people creating predatory/fradulent companies accountable , but instead demand that megacorporations control access to your products instead. Which they repeatedly fail and and exploit to enrich themselves at your expense.
That's just a very practical way to ensure aviation remains a polluting and oil guzzling industry for perpetuity.

Since the economic and political elites of the world (in the broad sense) are the clients of aviation, there is just about zero chance they will allow the field to be dismantled for environmental reasons, especially since they have come to relly on it in the global competion.
Of course there is, it's just that when you look at the overall picture, it's faster and more convenient. Just to give an example, as this was my general setup and still is for quite some time. One flight is at 10 PM, you can still work the whole day, go leave for the airport at around 7-7:30 PM, at 1 AM I'm at my destination (with a +1 hour timezone change), so that is about 5 hours. But can still sleep afterwards and have a full day the second day.

By car you can leave at around 7 AM and best case scenario you drive 9 hours, worst case 12. Train you leave at around midnight and get there at 4 PM, but you can't actually sleep in the train as there are no sleeper carts. When it comes to cost, car is cheapest with plane and train around the same, depending when you buy the ticket. When it comes to setting everything up, car is basic, you just get in and drive, all vignettes online; plane buy ticket in one place, that is it, train a bit more complicated. I still hope we'll get better at this, because I don't believe that autonomous cars or self driving will solve anything and we should focus on trains when it comes to more environmentally friendly mass transportation.
Would you please like to explain why it is better? Thanks!

Mercedes-Benz UI for cars circa 2015 has to be the worst piece of UI I have used in the last 30 years. It is slow, unintuitive, has both touch controls and a turning knob that has no semblance of sanity, and each has exclusive UI control properties.
And that's fine; it's a compromise sacrificing native look & feel and performance for cross-platform development and being able to assign web developers to mobile projects.

I mean personally I think any developer worth their salt should be able to learn native development, and any company that wants to make a good app should hire and invest in native developers / development. But that's a hard sell these days.
Vue-Preloader is a versatile and easy-to-use Vue.js component that allows you to add loading animations to your Vue.js or Nuxt.js projects. It is compatible with both Vue 2 and Vue 3.
Absolutely.

Also, while overhead lines tend to be the cheapest method, there have been some interesting tests in Sweden with rails embedded in slots in the road surface. (Sort of like those toy slot cars that used to be popular about 30-40 years ago or so.) It's more expensive, but the main advantages are that it can be used more easily by a wider range of vehicles (not just trucks or cars with comically tall pantographs), and you don't have to look at overhead cables, which some people find objectionable.

There are also some tests projects using induction charging, but that's super expensive and the amount of power you can usefully deliver is a lot lower than if you have a physical electrical connection. (I expect it to only be useful in a few limited cases. Maybe induction chargers installed at bus stops, for instance.)

Anyways, I would love if electrified highways were to be a real thing. The amount of diesel that gets wasted every day pushing trucks around is staggering, and it'd be great to be able to buy an electric vehicle with 100 miles of range or so and feel comfortable making long cross-country road trips without ever even having to bother to stop and charge.

I am parodying the parent's broad over generalization of tools. Yes, by their logic, they would concede that all software is bad. That doesn't mean some tools aren't better or worse than others. Just because hammers have flaws doesn't mean I'd use a hammer to screw in a nail, even if some do.
oh yeah, the whole STIR/SHAKEN thing is because calls and sms are essentially email: the sender just includes metadata saying who they are. Without any additional work you can a given call/message can claim to be whoever you want. This would be fine if carriers actually required it to be correct, but intrinsically if a call comes in to your carrier from another carrier your carrier has to trust the originator actually enforced this. But there are carriers whose primary market is "marketing companies", and so they are not ... careful ... about ensuring the originator isn't spouting nonsense. The FCC just recently told all major US carriers that they were required to drop connections from a couple of such carriers.

I'm sure there's a more complexity in how this actually all works in the real world, but this is my basic high level understanding of it.
