Sure, if you hear something often enough, it stops being special. However, I don't think I will get particularily used to it, because I am likely not going to have any contact with it. FaceBook is the last platform I have. All the hip new stuff like TikTok, Instagram and whatnot can stay where they are. I learnt my lesson in the few months that I happened to be on Twitter. I can see 1000 other things I'd prefer doing over scrolling through one of these modern depressants.
>And I will likely have to leave the US to find what I want.

Yep, that's exactly what I did. I'm in Tokyo now, and it's mostly what the "NotJustBikes" crowd is asking for: great public transit, walkability, lots of bike-riding, etc. I see kids walking or riding bikes by themselves all the time. I finally realized I was never going to be able to live in this kind of society in the US, so I found a place that had the lifestyle I wanted and moved there.
Good point. >30s, some married, no kids.

The query variable isn't actually used anywhere, the code assumes Google returns plaintext links one per line, and it has a weird no-op in the list comprehension. Quite bad if you ask me.
Adults don't want to behave like they used to behave as kids.

They don't want to spontaneously talk randomly about something to an unknown person, because that comes with risks like rejection, looking like a fool, being labelled in a certain way, associating with somebody boring/annoying/leeching, etc.

Kids takes way more risks, including social risks, because they don't know those are risks.

I guarantee that if you go to clubs or public places you enjoy, and you bring out the kid in you (at least the part that doesn't bring chaos), you will make friends eventually. Not immediately, but keep at it, and it will happen.

However I noticed many adults don't actually want to live the process of making friends. Even without risk, they don't want to make the effort.

Because here is another thing that adults don't have and kids have plenty: energy.

And it turns out making friends require a ton of energy, because while you can be yourself and make friends, you cannot "be on your own" and make friends. You can't live a perfectly scheduled life and make friends. You will have to get out of your bubble, move things around in your day, welcome the unexpected, and interact. You will have to discard something in favor of it. And you will have to do it again and again because most people are not a good fit to be your friends.

Kids do that all the times, without even thinking about it.

Forget about the missing opportunities, it's only the tip of the iceberg, and it can be overcome by getting out of your way. I have friends that are 10 years older or younger. I made friends after my twenties and after my thirties.

Hell I'm going forty yet I made a new friend 2 years ago, and we are getting pretty intimate at this point. My mother is almost 70, and she is still dating.

But when I feel like inviting new people into my life (which I don't always do, right now I have closed doors, I don't have an infinite reserve of private life to share), I will invest in it. I will accept the cost.

Because making friends is not free. Just like sex is not free and speaking your mind is not free.

Kids don't realize the cost, and bare less the weight of it, but we are very aware of it.

Making friends don't "just happen naturally" when you are a kid, there is a process.

But the process is seamless to kids, while it requires effort to adults.
>I'm sure we could find other letters for the rest of them.

Looking at the number of pronunciations for the same letter sequence in English you'd probably need an alphabet with hundredsof letters to make this happen.

At this point you can just switch to IPA instead.
It doesn't; what is happening is the result of changed attitudes towards China particular in the US. It would have preferred to trade more with and have further cultural ties with the US.

I’m not expecting any big returns from them, but they certainly beat inflation, when amortized over my investment period. And they don’t seem to be going anywhere soon.

I'm confused by this take. Most American urban cities are unnecessarily dense - Manhattan, SF, Chicago all squeezed into high rises 1000 occupant buildings.
Oh, there's a lot about California that makes it completely intolerable. Unfortunately there's a lot about other states that make them completely intolerable as well. Pick your poison.

Doing a quick check, Red Hat still has a "Workstations" product for RHEL:

Looks really expensive. And weird pricing. I click "pricing" and it gives me per user costs. Wat? I thought I was hosting stuff, not managing teams. Click on +Computing costs and it's like $0! $0! $0! Check the fineprint and its like 4GB RAM and 2 CPUs is $85/mo, or you can get the same at DigitalOcean for $24.

Then add Postgres for another $95. Or if you're cheap like me, you self-host that in your $24 droplet and pay nothing extra.

And then they want you to pay for Crons....instead of just running a cronjob on your dedicated compute?

One thing I hate about gardening articles and videos is they often use terms that are not consistent with different locations. Where I am in Northern Europe, what we consider 'spring' is going to be very different from what someone in Southern California considers 'spring'. 100 years ago where you audience is going to be in a small location near your printing press this may have been acceptable, but today when your audience is global it really is not.

If it is a choice between preparing my sd cards with open partitioning tools, or running some non-auditable official tool in binary form, it is an easy choice.

I'll do the former, as I always have.

By the way, a cool quote from the agreement preceding the download page:

>3. RESTRICTIONS: You agree to NOT: (a) disassemble, reverse engineer, decompile, or otherwise attempt to derive any source code for the SDA Software from executable code;

This should be quite alarming. They insist that we format SD cards with their tool, but they don't want us to know what the tool does.

I will not be the one reversing them, but I checked it is possible to download these through tor, and recommend downloading them that way to prevent potential trouble.

His philosophy doesn't resonate with me. Broadly speaking, since the industrial revolution scientific and technological progress has been about increasing productivity and available energy. This has had profoundly positive effects on our lives but in a developed country it's not obvious that becoming another order of magnitude more productive will automatically lead to people having even better lives.

In the advanced countries of the world there is no shortage of material and energy abundance, our intractable problems are things like isolation, obesity, inequality, and a lack of purpose, and the mental and physical ailments which accompany them. If there is a technological solution to these things it's not obvious. In some cases, technology is the problem. In others the problem stems from how we order our society, but there are no serious and thoughtful proposals about how to reorder it.
As a $European, I can only be jealous. We were importing our natural gas from Russia. Fortunately it was a mild winter, so people got away with lots of extra layers and blankets.

The word "renewable" gets thrown around a lot to the point where you forget what it means. But it means a resource that you can renew: It doesn't run out, you don't need to depend on others, and best of all it doesn't need to be bought from a crazed homicidal neighboring nation.

I get it, to a certain extent. But it’s not quite that simple. Many rural hobbies have pretty intense initial capital outlays, while urban ones tend to have higher running costs. Making tools that end up basically unused in suburban sheds is a big industry.
This sounds really weird to me. Where I’m from, suburbs try to distinct themselves from the city by using arbitrary landmarks, like railroads. When they gain this distinction, they are able to separate even more using taxes and schooling to create a deeper division. From my point of view, including these suburbs into the city is practically better than the trend of segregation.

C/C++ is still strong, but is it expanding? Is Go even in the "compiled" camp?

Nearly. There was an abbreviation for “th” that latter looked like “y” (not “ye”) and with the invention of the pressing press, the letter “y” was often used as a substitute for the “throne” character (the character that represented “th”). So “ye” means “the”.

The question is whether we are dependent on China rather than the outside world. Let's not forget that there are many places that are now cheaper than China for manufacturing, and aren't potential political foe. It's also worth remembering that the movement of outsourcing of western manufacturing to China happened within only about 10 years (ie late 90s to late 2000s). That's actually pretty fast.

Hmm… I recently bought a modern original PlayStation memory card that saves to SD.

The first SD card I bought just would not work with it no matter what I tried.

Support actually had me download the “SD Memory Card Formatter for Windows” from this site and reformat my card. Did not fix the issue. I ended up just buying a new SD Card which did fix the issue.

At the time it just felt like support was grasping at straws and wasting my time, but sounds like maybe not? Very curious. I have always just formatted my cards with Disk Utility in macOS.

My sibling comments have addressed this appropriately, but allow me to offer you a genuinely heartfelt response: Fuck You. Of course it outrages me.

Your profile says "Everything is terrible". You can improve that, and you can start with yourself.
No, title is correct, the name of the letter was pronounced “and per se and”, which slurred into the modern “ampersand”, and since “Ampersand” is the subject of the first clause of the sentence and the second clause is a dependent clause connected by a conjunction, not an independent clause joined by a comma and a conjunction, the subject doesn’t need repeated: the “&” is just the conjunction “and” not a repetition of the subject “ampersand”.
