There are already some very good replies in this thread. This is also an absolutely fantastic question.

The book New Sales: Simplified by Mike Weinberg is a decent intro to sales that you would probably get a lot out of. You can only learn sales by doing but this book will help you get your feet wet - there are a lot of absolutely awful sales books out there but this one is good. 45 calls in 3 months is very easily achievable, by the way, even just doing cold calls from LinkedIn.

I'd like to add one thing. It's not a direct response to the questions you asked but I hope it can help you once you figure out how to start making calls. I used to sell engineering software to heavy industry customers. I found out very quickly that if you called a customer on the phone (or were on Google Meet or whatever) and asked "anything wrong? anything I can help with?" they would tell you "oh no, everything's great here!". Go visit them in person though, and ask for a tour of their plant, and all of the sudden they're pointing to all sorts of things saying "oh yeah, that new 10 million dollar unit they just put in won't start, we can't figure out why!" and guess what, the software we sold could help them figure out how to start it. I work remote now and I love it, but for sales? Nothing beats meeting in person.

Isn't this just state funded campaigning? They know the law wont go anywhere, but it's a win for commercial time.

Really has nothing to do with speech at all, and everything to do with appearing anti woke. Posturing.
They're also the victim of harassment and hate by primarily other minorities, which makes for an uncomfortable fact.
Or be fired, but with real fire.
To me it's not about convincing anyone. I'm sharing my views on the topic because I'm interested in hearing other opinions and broaden my perspective

I can understand why some people are worried when looking at how many governmental institutions have failed in their duty to serve the public. The EU has definitely got its share off bad decisions, but overall I think it has a good track record

Politically I'd probably identify myself as an anarchist, so if I could change the world to look exactly like I thought best, I'd probably get rid of nation states and governments all together

That's however not how the world works and I'd rather work with the tools I have available right now

There's a war going on not far away from where I live and cyber attacks against critical infrastructure are happening almost daily

Even on this site, where I think discussions are generally pretty civilised, I'm starting to see a lot of retoric that's suspiciously similar to the alt-right retoric in many other places on the web

It makes me think that there's a growing number of users here on this site who are only here to further their political agenda of authoritarianism and violence

That scares me much more than having to make sure that the code I write doesn't have security vulnerabilities

I think it's worth considering what actions can be taken to preserve society the best under these circumstances (society is different from government and states in this context)
And yet, this information enriched nobody. Almost certainly, we’ll all forget within 15 minutes of leaving this conversation. And what if everyone walked away thinking it was actually Transformers 12? Well, that’s okay. It doesn’t matter at all. Everyone’s gonna forget in 15 minutes, and for people who care a lot, they probably already know and can tell others.

Which brings me back to my point - big lithium deposits in countries with unfriendly relationships with the US and its allies isn’t as big a deal as people think.
Did the "author" really just reprint a shitty annon social media post as an article? And they could not even be bothered to check the HR/Legal on the actual enforceability of these agreements?

As in the memory or the final binary size? I would have thought memory management was the tricky part -- even with the mandatory 8 MB expansion in the GBA slot -- but I suppose they would have been under even more pressure to fit it onto the smallest cart possible, with the cost of the expansion pack added for every unit
Be careful with this method, lest you learn enough of the truth to be a threat to your manager or the company.
Why do you think you need to achieve 4 or 5? Or even 3?

Salary in tech are so high that even with a mediocre bonus, it’s still a good life.

For the last two years, I aimed for just meet expectations. Easy job, no stress, just taking some time to relax.

Last few months, I decided to continue progressing in my career so I started taking more responsibilities.

The point is that work is not linear, it’s fine to relax a bit or even downgrade your role.

Yes, that is my belief.
I thought most household bulbs chopped it down to something like 30-40V.

Some lower spec lighting devices might take 120V and run LEDs in both series and parallel, but as LEDs fail, the rest get more current, leading to more failure… positive feedback loops for the win!
When I used to have money I shopped at Nordstroms. Now that I don't have money almost 10 years later around 40% of my closet is still those Nordstroms items. Between the better quality and better fit allowing them to look stylish longer, I would strongly disagree with your statement. I still get compliments on my almost 10 year old clothes.

I would try to understand that this has nothing to do with the relative technological capabilities of the phones in question, and you should try to stop yourself from seeing it that way. As you're an HNer that might be hard, but it's important to understand that this is a social issue -- not a technical one --, and kids can be ruthless.

There are a couple ways you can approach this particular issue.

1. You can capitulate to the demands that your child has, and get him an iPhone of some appropriate variety. You can attach some strings to this, maybe he needs to work or do something else and this can be his reward, or you could just give it to him. Sometimes it's best to pick your battles, and you could have a conversation with him about that.

2. You can continue as you have been doing to try and teach your son that the kids are wrong, and that he can be resilient against this kind of bullying. (I don't think I recommend this strategy)

3. You can tell some other authority figures about what's going on. The outcome of this will largely depend on who they are, and how likely they are to recognise/care about the bullying.

EDIT:

The most important thing is to talk to your son about this, and listen to what he has to say. You might think you're an expert on phones, and you probably are. That doesn't matter. Let your son explain how he feels, and work through a plan to make the situation better. Bullies prey on insecurity. Help your son understand what's happening and let him know that you are a person who can help.
First Evidence for Horsemanship
It is, but the bacteria live off iron already in the water, increasing the amount of bacteria won't extract more iron.

More generally though, there is an entire field of bioleaching[0] which does use bacteria to either mine material or more often recover extra minerals from mine waste products.

Walking out is not the right thing, and it is not empowerment. It is utter disregard for those who remain, it robs them of your expertise and care. US has OSHA, USCSB, municipal ad., state ad., and federal ad. AND multiple members of Congress per state. Before walking out there all these people AND MORE to contact, make aware, request help from.
Buying him an iphone is probably the worst thing you could do, you'd be teaching him the answer to bullying is to change and conform yourself. What will happen if others later bully him for "not drinking enough" or not engaging in other foolish behavior?
> The world is full of secret superheroes, mustering up a lot of strength and ingenuity to get through their days.

I know you mean well, but I don't like being thought of as a superhero. It defines me by my limitations and hold me up as something exceptional. I actually find this to be quite harmful. :(

Consider this: I only need to be exceptional because society would not allow me to be successful otherwise. There are many others with my disability who aren't.

It borders on the edge of inspiration porn[1].

When it comes to this kind of stuff (and no, she doesn’t have a phone just yet) with my 13yo I work in the space of not being concerned about others passing judgement for superficial BS like this. We have a saying in our family, “Rejection is Protection”.

She actually has the opposite problem, cut off from texting with her Android-toting peers because iMessage on her iPad only clicques up with other Apple users. They work around it in some cases by others relaying appointments for gathering f2f, or by not having contact with certain kids except when they serendipitously cross paths irl. And it’s ok. She doesn’t suffer FOMO because she experiences missing out on things and recognizes she’s still ok.
The article in Ars was published 3 hours ago. Give it a few days.

This proposed law is obviously un-American, and may not hold up to judicial scrutiny.

Edit: it may not even hold up to public scrutiny!
> This thread has been about the veracity and the relevance of the author's claim that "two billion people can read Arabic to some degree".

This is not really true. You tried to center your conclusion that your math was better than the author’s math while distracting from the topic of rendering text properly.

This thread has been about you insisting that people listen to your math and not discuss rendering text properly. lol this thread has been about how clever you are, _not_ rendering text properly.
CI/CD Best Practises: Scaling a Delivery Platform
This has genuinely affected me to no end. A lack of health insurance and a fresh move to a new state has put me at the back of the line for a lot of providers. Since Christmas has felt like the bag has gone back over my head. I call every day.
Or if you work directly with hardware, as I do. I use bitwise stuff constantly. Or if you're doing certain obscure kinds of highly optimized mathematical operations.
I don't see anything "high-res" about the reconstructed images.
There are way, way better ways to flex than an iPhone tho. Those aren't available to a 12 year old.

i.e. they can talk shit all day about my Pixel phone, whatever. I'll ponder why it matters to them as I drove home in my 7-series.
Separation of concerns and prioritization may help here:

1. The bullying is unacceptable. As other comments have noted, address this first and foremost regardless of the (perceived) reason. A good first step is to have your child identify the offenders and reach out to the parents with your child's agreement on the plan of action. You may also want to consider a longer-range set of possibilities, up to and including potentially changing schools if you have the means and if the situation is extreme enough (ideally, not).

2. Older/refurbished iPhones look they can be found for similar prices as the Galaxy S20. If you buy one for your child, or have your child earn it via chores/jobs, then you'll both find out soon enough whether the bullying stems from not having the right phone or if it's a vicious social group that will find a different reason to keep harassing your child. Hence, dealing with #1 is the most important.

3. You explained to your child (probably numerous times) about iPhones not being automatically better; now it's time to move on and take actions that (might) improve his situation.

Parenting can be tough to navigate. Best of luck.
hdmi and workstation doesnt fit, but you can down vote me its fine I dont care.
And I appreciate it! It helps me be less of a consternated citizen to know whatever extent of a reasonable explanation there is. Someone else pointed out vehicle theft is automatically a felony as well, unlike swiping someone's electronics.

In this case, it was a Macbook Pro registered to my AppleID, which I guess isn't quite as ironclad as a state registery but seems like reasonable proof of ownership. It was almost more frustrating to know they couldn't even get any use out of the device unless they tried to part it out, since it was iCloud locked. In hindsight, I should have checked that building's dumpster...
No, Novell didn't pull a fast one. SCO didn't have the money to buy everything they wanted to buy, so the deal was deliberately structured so that they bought less. At the time, both sides knew it. And then most everybody who knew it left Caldera...

I get bullied about having a Pixel as a 30 year old by all my close friends. No one wants the green bubble. At 12, fitting in is a big thing. Sometimes some things are worth adjusting for.

Coded Resistance, the Comic
This is a bill proposed by a legislator. This is not a law that has been passed by the governor.
Very similar to the lesson I had taken away when writing the article. The first director you mentioned was essentially making the same mistake myself and many others make - we think that pointing out the problems honestly will allow us to justify spending resources on fixing them.

The seemingly correct way to handle this is to lie about the current state of things and push for a change anyway. This is counterintuitive to the sane, because things being good means that there's less pressure to change them. The secret sauce evidently lies in agreeing everything is good so that all those involved can agree to your follow-up proposal to fix the obviously bad system without looking like failures themselves.

So the next question is, if change is sufficiently slow (and assuming that you care about whether your work has an impact somewhere), is it worth sticking around? You have to lie a fair bit, which is distasteful, and the time it takes to replace one terrible database could take up 2-3 years of your life. But someone presumably has to do it, and if all the competent people leave, then it'll never get better. Still figuring this out myself.
Who specifically are you accusing of hypocrisy here? Because yeah, as a "free-speech defender" this is pretty blatantly unconstitutional, and will almost certainly never pass, and it should probably raise questions about the guy who authored it (who I've never heard of).
Good. The pandemic price bubble could not last, and it outpaced wage growth quite a bit. As a property owner, I fully expect property values to slowly deflate to reality, however that's still going to be higher than they were pre-pandemic, and eventually slowly increasing again.
I cannot imagine a worse idea than downloading a binary artifact promulgated by someone in the competitive infosec community.
> I’ve found significant code in c/c++ where bitwise operations are done for things like division etc by shifting a certain way.

Oh, yes. I used to do that sort of thing frequently because the time savings was significant enough. As you say, though, compilers have improved a great deal since then, so it's not generally needed anymore.

If stupid bit tricks like that aren't necessary, they shouldn't be used. They do bring a readability/mental load cost with them.
Yes correct, that was very, very clearly the implication he was making.
> It's no good just to do meditation and calm your mind if your body and nervous system is still holding on to so much stress.

I just want to point out that for nearly all of its history yoga is primarily about meditation, with the asanas being preliminary, quickly covered material in most classic texts.

The Yoga Sutras of Patañjali are a good reference for anyone curious (though the sections on the siddhis is... interesting).
His personal website contains gems like this one:

> "Darl McBride will be remembered as one who fought for the rights of the individual against tyranny, for freedom against slavery, for intellectual liberty against herd mentality. In short, he is a Howard Roark (Ayn Rand's protagonist in 'The Fountainhead') for our age."

> Francis Erdman, Blog Kinetic

And other heavily narcissistic quotes. Not surprising that he saw nothing wrong in appropriating other people's voluntary work and calling them long haired stinkies at the same time.

What a fellow :)
The "hypocrisy" is only hypocrisy if you think that conservatives believe that all citizens should be treated equally. They do not, never have, and never will. Composer Frank Wilhoit's observation keeps coming up because it explains literally everything:

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

They want the law to protect conservative speech, but not bind it. They want the law to bind moderate and liberal speech, but not protect it.

> "a manager ... explaining to a former carman that they should stop tagging railcars for broken bearings. The manager says doing so delays other cargo."

This sort of thing should result in jail time.
Every manager I worked with gets impressed by origin stories like this. I would guess it is even easier in Europe.
I'm sour that emacs sucks. I would like to be able to use it for everything, but if I'm being honest with myself other editors simply work better for me.

Courts have a process called "discovery." You can sue a John Doe and then use discovery to find out who you're actually suing[1]. Yes, really. This process could potentially compel hosting services, publishing platforms, ISPs, and so on to provide the information they have.

Okay, there is a huge detail missing from Ars' report, and a lot of reports about this, that is key here. If you read the actual text of the bill[0], you'll note that it states:

>(d) “Compensation” includes anything of value provided to a blogger in exchange for a blog post or series of blog posts. If not provided in currency, it must be the fair-market value of the item or service exchanged.

>(2) If a blogger posts to a blog about an elected state officer and receives, or will receive, compensation for that post, the blogger must register with the appropriate office, as 163 identified in paragraph (1)(f), within 5 days after the first 164 post by the blogger which mentions an elected state officer.

So this only applies to bloggers who are being paid to blog. If you or I set up a blog and receive no compensation for it, this does not apply to us. Ordinary folks ability to go to blogger, tumblr, substack, wherever and start posting about their local politicians will not be restricted.

Not a NUC, but there is the ThinkPad X13s. Linux support seems to be shaping up decently, with some hope that it might be supported by stock ubuntu in ubuntu 23.04.
I agree. I think some people use Linux to avoid paying Windows license fees or Apple's premium. There are tools only developed for Linux, but the opposite is also true for Windows and macOS. I've found most macOS apps follow Apple's core philosophy to be simple, aesthetically appealing, and easy to use. Can't say that for Linux packages (and to some extent, even Windows apps suck).

I view Linux mostly as an environment where you're free to do whatever you want, even shoot yourself in the foot. But I'd never recommend that to average Joe, for reasons such as the fact that this article exists.
It’s not as bad as people make it out to be. Swift without any backwards compatibility constraints chose “\(val)”. It does need a slight getting used to but it is not any worse than ${}.
