Why do you expect employers would pay you? I mean, what if you don't pass it, or even worse, what if the company offers you a job that you decline near the end? Where would the money go?
Receiving a salary is not the thing you can expect when you're not doing the work... I mean cmon.. Plus the real salaries upon landing the job will be the top of the crop, so, I think expecting payment for interviewing is... Quite the entitlement.

I mean, would you pay money to a handyman if he'd show up near your roof and showed you how he uses his tools and how he WILL EVENTUALLY work, but, not really fixing it?
Never said those things depended on burning down the amazon. I said I'd totally sacrifice it if doing so paid off.

You're calling me a moron because you took my post literally. Truth is I don't even disagree with the rest of your points. The sentiment I tried to convey was "the amazon doesn't matter, we have bigger problems to worry about". That's the most polite way I found to express what I feel when I see people worrying about a jungle in a country that's unable to provide basic sanitation to all its citizens. Especially those living in said jungle, and there are many.

At least it's a relatively noble cause. I'm a lot less polite when it comes to intellectual property.
I must be smarter than all of you, I never solve any difficult problems.
Thank you for noticing this. This was obvious to me the moment I first played it, but it has always gone totally unmentioned. The later 3D games are often branded Tomb Raider clones, which is backwards.
If you haven't read Ficciones, it's a must! Besides the Spanish original, I've read the English version and it's just as excellent.

This provoked Russia to invade how?.

> It would be nice if history was so black and white, wouldn't it?

Good thing that history is that black and white this time, this is as black and white as WW2.

The loosing party claim that the election was stolen every 4 years.
It's not condescending at all. You are saying they could reasonably pay for it, but they quite obviously cannot (hence the existence of this whole post). What I'm principally challenging is the assumption that this required effort is substantial. I'm making the point that it is not, certainly (in my view) compared to the effort to run an entire operating system project and all of the ancillaries that come with that. This is an area they have chosen to pay for that (again, in my view) they don't need to. They have gone to great lengths to architect a system that allows deep pinning of very specific versions, it's not a stretch to think about the architecture required to deliver that. Instead they have stopped that line of thinking at [insert S3 here] rather than carry on solving. A direct consequence of that now is a $9k/m hole they need to fill in their budget. I'm being critical, sure, but not condescending. Overall, it frustrates me seeing opinions that operating infrastructure is difficult and therefore must automatically be avoided. In this particular example avoiding operating said infrastructure potentially is putting the project in the red and at risk, but nowhere on the NixOS call for help does it suggest they have considered operating this themselves. And there in is the crux of my point. The zeitgeist has turned against operating infrastructure, and yet is frequently caught out by the cost of this decision.
Until recently it was illegal to be gay in Singapore. I wouldn’t that “a western perspective”. Btw the army still classify homosexuality as a mental illness when they assess recruits for conscription.

As for the educational system, university is very expensive. Schools are free and yes they claim to be very good on academic scores. What they don’t tell you is they still do caning in public schools (boys only). Still stuck in the fifties. The educational system largely focuses on academic strength and if you are not academically strong you get put into a second tier system very quickly. Kids as young as 8 have exams and suffer from exam stress early in their life.

So yes, Singapore is an iron fisted, draconian police state, not much better than their Chinese neighbours.

This is a joke, right?

I'm not familiar with the concept of unlimited PTO, only with the concept of PTO by law, by tariff system (unionised jobs) and by individual employment contracts.

German law says you have to have at least 24 days PTO, given a 5 day 40h week. It's common to have ~30 days PTO in most professions.

And of course you don't give anyone your money, the employer is in charge to organise that people can take time off. And sometimes this is done by having everyone off at the same time.
I don't think so, even after time it was never a hit but more a cult-classic.

Shame really, you can't replace the quality of hovering over circuity and giant glass towers throwing out I/O.
"Therefore, taking decisions on higher-level problems must be held out until evidence from sub-problems was integrated to not prematurely jump to a conclusion."

Lower response time indicates jump to the conclusion that happened to be correct. The percentage of correctly solved higher-level problems was predictably lower for people with lower g-factor.
I didn't say that. I asked the question.

However, if a for-profit company wanted me to spend essentially a full day of my time off work so that I can go and interview to make them more money than they'd be paying me - yeah that doesn't sound right at all unless you're straight out of school.

I know what you're saying with your handyman argument but that is a false equivalency.

The invisible homeless seem like the people that most likely can be helped, and the ones I feel more empathy and respect for. The visible ones that trash public places and make them unsafe, I want them dealt with so that the problem is fixed for everyone else. If that means involuntary commitment because they refuse drug treatment or being relocated to some sort of housing facility, so be it. I don't think people should be allowed to trash parks, camp on sidewalks or use walking paths for bathrooms and doing drugs, all of which should be illegal.

Removing black-box voting would go great length at convincing people of the vote legitimacy in USA.

This is a bit of a stretch.

Congress is divided over divisive issues, and unified over other issues.

E.g. the first COVID legislation was passed in like 2 weeks. Hardly a sign of "dysfunctional legislators".
UK: there was a proposal to introduce weekend surgery to make better use of operating theatres. The problem is staffing the facilities. Lead times on training people are long. And in UK the training process is not cheap and has significant up-front costs for the people being trained. Nurses as well as surgeons.

We used to have bursaries to cover the cost of training for nurses, but, austerity and all.
I am not sure what you mean, that point is mentioned:

>Electric cars, of course, have zero exhaust emissions, which is a welcome development, particularly in respect of the air quality in city centres.

>Friends with an environmental conscience often ask me, as a car person, whether they should buy an electric car. I tend to say that if their car is an old diesel and they do a lot of city centre motoring, they should consider a change. But otherwise, hold fire for now.
I think the once perfectly ordinary idiom of “winning friends” has fallen out of usage in the (many) decades since that book was written, to the extent that people now – just like you here – read something nefarious into it that wasn’t originally there at all.

And nobody said he doesn’t live in the district. He moved to SF as a lawyer, then became Deputy City Attorney, then was elected to Board of Supervisors, then elected to state senate. His quote about not being able to afford to live in SF is most likely to point out that rent control in SF keeps qualifying rents affordable while market-rate rents are extremely unaffordable.

I'm not sure what you mean about deploying without risk only recently. X509 without extra recent additions like hsts could never lock out your users for extended periods of time. If you really messed up in some way, they could still ignore errors and continue while you buy/deploy a new cert.

With dnssec you can be down for days by messing up just the very basics.
Yeah, basically grid-based, no precise movement. It had some unique innovations though. The camera always stayed behind the main character but without the camera moving into a wall: If there was an obstruction behind Lara, the camera moved closer. Modern third-person games still use this get-closer trick. (Though they use the Mario 64 controls with free camera instead of the tank controls used in Tomb Raider.)
That is very interesting. As you most likely know, Borges was famously a huge anglophile, he once said "I find English a far finer language than Spanish" in an interview. There's a video of his reasoning:

I tend to agree with him. I am not a native English speaker and also find it more expressive than my mother tongue.
So Youtube admits it plays a role in legitimating the winning party or not, depending on how fast videos are censored and how long the censorship lasts. If they wanted to play a role in the next election, they would allow videos about vote fraud exactly now, just in case.

It is very grave.
> If it is so important for those people who love to complain about such stuff. Though I suspect most of the people complaining about her proportions didn't even play the games themselves.

You can make your point without claiming that people who have a different view just “love to complain”. It might be worth asking yourself why they're complaining instead of dismissing their views — you wouldn't want someone else to dismiss your view like that.

Thanks for the link!

When I speak to artists or people in more creative fields, I find that, typically, the conversations are more improvisational in nature. The conversation just ebbs and flows naturally, with energy and a lot of spontaneous thought building. The strange book Impro is a good read for this.

Whereas, when I speak with engineers or scientists, it feels like the conversation has a much higher chance of lurching, especially when you start to veer off the beaten path.

I consider myself to be a bit more divergent than most, but being in a technical field is a bit of an impedance mismatch. I think a component of divergent thinking is sometimes extreme thinking, wondering about what if and ignoring, for the time being, how to get there.

Oddly aggressive response?

Yes, Win32 has been supported for a long time (though it's worth noting that it barely older than this emulator, which started development in 1995 and not originally on Win32), but there's been a long series of other API changes in Windows that often mean that software designed for previous versions no longer runs as well - if at all - on subsequent versions. Wine on Linux does a better job running many Win95, 98, and XP titles than current Windows.

Not to mention, with the shift to cloud and containerisation, and Microsoft's decades-long quest to get people to move on from Win32, I think it's bold to assert that Win32 will run smoothly on whatever (if any) Windows is about in 2063.

It's not just carrying ballots off into rooms for machine counting, but this happening days and even weeks after the election, with random arrivals of large numbers of ballots long after polls have closed.

It's notable that people thinking an election is unfair, and an election being unfair, have the exact same social outcome. And so bending over backwards to absolutely ensure there's no reasonable doubt whatsoever is absolutely critical to a functioning democracy.
At this point, I’m convinced that the web is now sophisticated enough that it’s inherently unsafe, and anyone who wants to track you has a myriad of nuanced ways to probe various technical indicators, timings, and form heuristics about who you might be at the very least.

Considering there are commercial solutions KNOWN to do this today, and do so with staggering accuracy even through VPNs and relays such as Apple’s, it seems like a game that can’t be cat-and-moused anymore.

It’s done, there’s too much exposed information when browsing the web.

Ironically, even Stallman’s technique of emailing webpages to himself to read is risky depending on how the page is sent to him and whether scripts are completely removed or disabled.

It just feels like playing with fire. You always have the chance of being burned. Or rather, the only winning move is to not play.

Where it suited the U.S. Cold War objectives, they turned a blind eye to certain individuals, notably scientists. Hoping to deprive the Soviets of scientific expertise in rocket design and various topics related to nuclear weapons, the U.S. created an extra-judicial pathway that bypassed prosecution for some.
