Unconvinced. It's more of a hypothesis that SB does not want ppl to buy espresso shots (which in fact is on the menu). They will get you on pastry anyway.

I'd rather agree on this with the SB manager's rationale, that the blend/roast is tuned for the milk-based drinks, indeed, which are priced higher.

From my own experiences, the baristas are often taught to put two shots into tall lattes, otherwise the clients complain of too milkiness. I won't drink that much of caffeine out of simple physiological concerns but completely understand the flavor expectations.

As for the espressos, the coffee habits in the US are very particular, filtered and drip coffee largely rules, now with additional variety of "geeky" brew and drip with tons of bean blends to choose from. And, yes, let's not forget the expectations about the volume - it has to last through a meeting :)

SB blend seems to serve to tastes equally in drip or blended with milk. Simplifies the logistics. For everybody else, try the Reserve.

By the way, SB espresso is not too bad, goes well with vanilla ice-cream! Though my preference with SB is the hot chocolate, most other places care little about the good cocoa.

…says the guy who fails to recognize that the musician was never taken into custody or charged with a crime. Some folks made an accusation (over a decade ago, by the way). The police followed up on the call by asking the guy questions about the incident. Literally just talked to him.

And then…? Nothing. No charges filed. No detention. No indictment. Nothing. The matter was dropped.

Anyone can accuse anyone of anything, both in the US and the UK. That doesn't mean when the police follow up, the accused go straight to jail and stand before a judge.

Now, once more, UK laws have NOTHING to do with German laws, especially after the UK withdrew from the EU. So unless you've got an example from Germany or at least France that demonstrates a legitimate chilling effect on free speech due to hate speech laws present in those countries, you're indeed confused as to what it means.

Fun fact: Europe is not a monolith, and the UK has no prohibition against Nazi iconography and rhetoric, unlike for example France and Germany.
I think people who make themselves look that way with makeup are disgusting and unnatural too, regardless of whether they're using a video filter.
Everyone should read this summary/review of the "debate".

More important, everyone should read the paper being debated: Social Processes and Proofs of Theorems and Programs, Richard A. De Millo (Georgia Institute of Technology) and Richard J. Lipton and Alan J. Perlis
(Yale University). This is one of my favorite CS papers because it exposes a lot of the mechanism behind making proofs that are convincing. What does it mean to say you have proven something.
I'm completely ignorant of Muslim culture but there was a time where Catholics recited prayers and liturgy in latin and plenty of practitioners recited the sounds without really understanding them.

Source: my grand aunts saying "arapreme" where "ora pro nobis" would go (the former kinda sounds like an Italian word). Also probably related, "hocus pocus" is the "magic" expression "hoc est corpus" ("this is the body [of Christ]").

The hit and run play they mention in the article depends on the defense being unaware of the play. Basically, the batter will swing no matter the pitch, which let's the runner on base start running before the ball leaves the pitcher's hand. If the pitcher and catcher know it's a hit and run, then they can pitch an unhittable ball and then throw the runner out. The Wikipedia page is pretty good if you want to know more.

More abstractly, baseball has a few situations that only exist because a team can coordinate among themselves without revealing their plan to the opposing team. This leads to more mixed strategies where a greater variety of plays are enacted with some probability. Without signs, those plays wouldn't work, and the game would become more boring.

IMO I think speeding up the game will make it more exciting, and they will figure out how to signal in the time available.

Besides this coordination, signals are also used to give instructions to individuals. E.g. base stealing or bunting. However, since these plays don't require coordination among multiple players, these could be spontaneously performed at the player's discretion in the absence of signals. This could actually make a more exciting game as players exhibit more agency and create more chaos.
Great, now you have an nginx reverse proxy as a load balancer in front of a few servers. Now sort out log storage, certificate expiry, access controls, patch management, health monitoring, and remote administration, update it whenever you add or remove backend servers for maintenance, and make sure to synch it up to DNS, and you’ve almost got the same capability as an AWS ELB. Except yours doesn’t have high availability or horizontal autoscaling.

Getting all of that stuff right actually kind of gets close to rocket science. Which can be worth doing… but just be aware that Amazon will happily sell you a rocket kit.
Not sure I understand the commotion. The same thing can be done in the real world with enough time and money. But somehow doing it digitally for free is a problem?

If teenage girls don't know how to handle this then maybe we should teach them?
I appreciate you sharing your story. I had a similar journey over the last couple years because of the pandemic. Looking back now it was definitely an issue at least as far back as early teens.

I used to work out a lot, and very intensely as that was the only thing that made me feel "awake". It wasn't until the lockdowns when I couldn't get to the gym that it got bad enough that I also started my own journey to this diagnosis.

I had started living more in the dream world than the real world and being awake was a daze. I became distant to the world and lost my imagination, memory, and emotion. I was also questioning how I could ever go on with my current job and life.

Thankfully, I also started a sleep apnea treatment (oral appliance, and later CPAP) after many discussions with my doctor. This mostly fixed my condition. The difference is incredible and I don't have the words to describe how it has changed my life.

So I want to say thank you for sharing your story, you're not alone and I hope others see your story and get the help they need.

If you've read this story and suffer any of the symptoms mentioned, I highly recommend doing a sleep study, it's truly life altering.

Next logical step is filter customization that you carry around and gets applied seamlessly to all videos you post on the platform. Next to that becomes filters that get applied based on consumer preferences: if you have indicated a certain preference for big brown eyes, TikTok might enlarge and darken them for all videos you watch. Argh.

> Just curious, do you understand why you had difficulty with remote work yourselves?

I've been trying to think a bit about it. So far what I got is mainly two-fold. The big one is that people seem to find it far easier to ask the colleague in the next office over when they're stuck, compared to over Teams. And it's far easier to tell people about new features you've implemented over lunch or similar.

I also much harder to direct someone over Teams, or illustrate, compared to pointing at their screen and tell them what to do or quickly drawing some flow chart on a piece of paper while together, so teaching is more difficult. We a brand new hire just before the lockdowns hit, so we noticed this very well.

Also you miss out on listening in on the corridor chats. There's quite a lot of stuff I pick up on just by listening in on the other devs or support chatting in the corridor. Oh those customers want something very similar to the feature X I'm working on right now? Let's join the chat and see if we can't satisfy two customers for the price of one. That kinda stuff.

I'm pretty sure if we had been fully geared and prepared for remote work it could work much better, but I do think it requires a different mindset and different management style.
More likely cell will replace satellite, as it is cheaper and more reliable.
That is one interpretation.

Another is to consider that while over 96% of children given puberty blockers proceed to cross-sex hormones, those treated with watchful waiting desist in around 85% of cases.

This suggests that puberty blockers are much more likely to cement gender dysphoria, rather than treat it.

Furthermore, there is no evidence to show that not being prescribed puberty blockers causes gender dysphoric children to kill themselves.

I found this hard to read. I have struggled with poor sleep for years (like, 10 years probably). It's not _that bad_, but, memory isn't great and definitely don't feel rested in the mornings. But I'm still reasonably functional, can hold down a job etc.

A while back I got tested for sleep apnea, had a 6 or a 7 on the scale (mild). I tried the CPAP machine for 6 weeks (inside the time I could return it). My number went down to 1 or something, but, I didn't feel any different, so I gave it up (this was about a year ago, maybe a bit longer).

I decided to try get to the bottom of my tiredness again and was recently at my doctors. He said it would take 3 to 6 months of using the CPAP machine before you'd know whether it would make a difference! I'm trying some other things first (giving up alcohol for 6 months as of yesterday!), taking nasal sprays and a device to stop me snoring.. Really hope something works out as it's just so annoying!

I'm very jealous in a way that the author found out the root cause of their issue. Well done keeping at it! For anyone who has successfully used CPAP, did it really take 3-6 months before you found it made a difference?

The standard is ISO 15118.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_15118

Volkswagon, Ford, Mercedes, Lucid, and Rivian have all standardized on this to negotiate payment. Electrify America and a few others have already implemented this standard in their chargers.

The vast majority of times I've had to charge at a public charger, plug and charge negotiated the payment without issue. I do not drive a Tesla.

> And it will, presumably, require Tesla to retrofit some kind of user interface to the charging stall. That seems a bit stupid when every car that can connect has a screen that could easily do the job.

If they supported the industry standard instead of only their proprietary standard, they wouldn't need to.

The first two correct examples are "Hello world". Third one is "language".

The stick character is either a short "a' or "i", which you would know from the little tick marks above/below that you see in decorative script, but are generally left out in print where you get it from context.

The J looking character is an "L". So they make "al" like al-jabaar => the strong. It's 95% like "el" in Spanish or "il" in Italian, though it is genderless.

The o with dots attached or not to the word on the right indicates feminine gender.
Its been almost a year since first announced, you'd think they'd have at least one charger with CCS by now given how fast and bleeding edge Tesla's technology allegedly is.
I tried this as well as a jaw-advancing device and I still snored like hell. The only thing that worked was the Zyppah (jaw-advancer + tongue stabilizer at the same time) but that made my jaw so sore and also triggered my gag reflex most of the time.

Eventually the snoring simply stopped. Not sure what caused it, but I'm happy.
>A minority of them actually use the script to write things daily.

how do I interpret that? something like "hundreds of millions of arabs constitute a minority of 2 billion"? or are you saying that vast majorities in the arab countries don't use arabic script to write things daily?
But is there any need to make things different for the sake of difference?

For example, why not name "car" function as "first", "head" or "beginning"? Why not name "cdr" as "rest", "tail", "end" or "back"?

I'm really happy with using docker and compose for everything. You really can't beat how well it works on a single host.

Worrying about having to configure systemd? "restart: always" in compose. Caddy updates? Caddy provides an up to date docker image. You can't get around caddy's config, but tbh, you do it once, and then you're done. It's way better than nginx. Deploying a new version of your go application is just "docker compose up -d".
Nothing wrong with it but it’s pretty devoid of nutrition compared to other greens.

Only 1 out of 4 URLs in the test was static. The others are rendered HTML templates (using Go's html/template -- I'll update the article to make that clearer), and one page does two SQL queries.

Note that my load test wasn't to see how much I could squeeze out of this, but to determine that it's "more than good enough" for this use case. The typical qps I get from real customers on the site is about 0.5 qps, so I think I'm good. :-)
Yeah, it was just a joke.

Younger coworkers are inevitably much better than I was at their age. How could they not be? Everything is better, and enlightenment is always just a few clicks away.

I pay $15 to $20 per session (around 45 ~ 60 mins), depending on teachers.

The problem with matching with someone already online is that it might not be the right person. There are tutors that are very good, helpful and inspiring. I don't think I want to talk to random person online. A long term relationship with several tutors are helpful because we know each other better and I'm more comfortable speaking in front of them.

So I would prefer AI > random someone
This makes me really happy, and will probably make me try again to fix my own sleep issues. They're eerily similar, except I haven't found a clear cause yet. Decade old maintenance insomnia, I wake up a 1-2 hours earlier than needed.

I did all the obvious testing and keep hitting hit a brick wall. Polysomnography, SSRIs, MRIs, therapy, drugs, every supplement on the market... I was clearly told not 6 months ago that every avenue is tapped out. Except I had no idea UARS existed, nor that allergies may have something to do with sleep quality - and both are legitimate directions to follow in my case.
I'm pretty happy with fly.io, except for one thing: I moved over two apps from Heroku, lured by the free tier. But you do have to enter your credit card details whether or not you intend to pay. And then they do charge me a few bucks per month for an almost completely unused app.

It's probably all in line with the ToS and everything, but I find it a bit shady that I have to investigate this, rather than having a free offering that doesn't suddenly charge me.
Phoenix 1.7 and LiveView 0.18 have exceeded my expectations and made things so much easier on the project we're using it on. Specifically:

1. Verified routes bring consistency between HTML and the routes defined in router.ex and are checked at compile time.

2. CoreComponents.ex simplifies a lot of HTML.

3. I like the way function components work consistently now.

4. Rendering large data sets with LiveView streams is great.

5. I like the simpler <li :for={item <- @items}><%= item.name %></li> syntax over <%= for item <- @items %><li><%= item.name %></li><% end %>. It's a lot easier to type.

If you're new to LiveView or just looking to get up to speed with all the great changes, Pragmatic Studio has an excellent Phoenix 1.7 LiveView course available: https://pragmaticstudio.com/courses/phoenix-liveview

Yeah if you've been exposed to C, C#, Java, Go or similar you should pick it up quite quickly. Unlike C++ the syntax is fairly strict so you get fairly sensible errors most of the time, or a least in a relevant location.

I don't think you have to be "lazy" to take advantage of the value proposition of saving time or complexity. I think Dropbox and similar are successful because they have put a higher emphasis on their target audiences time than other competitors in the past.
