> implicit fast feedback loop of standing next to each other.

I have a hard time grasping this one. Is it brainstorming ?

For things like pair programming or specification of a product, having separate screens and independent access to the same documents makes things a lot faster and efficient.

Same way meetings tend to go smoother all participants can access whatever data they need independently from the presenter, and move through the docs at their own pace.

Basically a mix of synchronous communication and access to all needed resources seems to me to perform better than IRL binding of two or more people looking at each other.
Trump is being charged for misconduct, not because he is a political opponent. Biden would probably prefer to face Trump again, seeing how he's already beat him once before, and so many people dislike Trump, he's likely easy to beat again. Attributing this result to anything other than justice finally catching up with Trump is conspiratorial thinking.

Sure, abstracts are a good thing and we do want such compressed information about the article - however, recompressing a 'compressed' abstract from 300 words to 200 words or from 200 words to 300 words (which is usually mandatory if resubmitting elsewhere) is time consuming, lossy, and doesn't add value.
How about the reverse of this? Had to let go of 2 people because I do not know how to hire (apparently) as the people I hired looked good on resume, did ok in interview (but I may also be bad at that) but could not really perform the work ("simple" LEMP stack)

I think what we'd need to replicate the azolla event is a large fresh-water lake that's very still and stagnant, so that O2 levels in the deep parts are low enough that when the plant dies and sinks to the bottom it doesn't decompose.

Or alternatively would could have azolla-harvesting ships that skim the surface, and then we could turn the resulting plant mass into biochar and bury it, or something like that.

Azolla doesn't do well in salt water, but maybe we could engineer a salt-tolerant variant. The Black Sea, for instance, has about half the salinity of the rest of the ocean.

For some salt-tolerant azolla variant to get loose and cover the whole ocean sounds like it could be a major ecological disaster though, even if it does draw down CO2 really fast.

Azolla is sometimes used to feed livestock and as a fertilizer, so it could displace other, potentially more CO2 producing ways of accomplishing the same thing.

I think there have been some efforts to use it as a food for humans.
Survivorship bias. You're missing the big graveyard of civilizations that thought they could persist in the face of changing external circumstances but miscalculated. Many of those are buried in what are now deserts, created by their misguided land management.
I use Kubuntu and don't have any complaints. I love all the customization. Yes, it has Snap, but I also use flathub. Either way, it works great
Here’s the thing: actually, we need the behavior of a _very small_ number of humans to change: the rich. Not only is their personal CO2 consumption the majority of personal CO2 consumption, but the capital they control drives the behavior and policy of everything else. This is a far easier problem to solve. I’ll leave the solution to your imagination.
I have no idea why, but I can only stand to use reddit in "old" mode. Even on mobile. It's completely 100% unusable in any other format. I've tried to use their app and standard mobile website, but I can't make heads or tails of the hierarchy of content.

Have you met any of these people? They're quite normal people like you and I. They've climbed the ranks in some cases by spending 20+ years at the same company. The discussions I attended were HR leaders in attendance only aside from myself. I was just popping into breakout rooms and observing. I left with the impression that the HR leaders are genuinely interested in improving the workplace experience. A central topic for instance was "How can I convince my CEO / board that we should allow hybrid / fully remote?". If they were sociopathic scumbags I would instead expect "How can we force employees to come back to the office" discussions.

Was the asking price really so unreasonable?

Maybe so, maybe not. The way it was handled was absolutely unreasonable.

Of the affected reader apps, the only ones with subscription models were Sync (on Android) and Apollo (on iOS). Basically everything else was one time purchases for some combination of an ad-free version and/or improved functionality.

For those apps not using subscriptions, they were basically told "you must now set up to handle subscriptions and detailed tracking of API usage" and given either ~75 days (from the 4/18 announcement) or ~30 days (from the pricing availability) to design, code, submit, get reviewed, resubmit, etc their apps, along with any business changes needed to handle substantial cash flow through the app, with only fixed upfront charges available to receive money and only postpaid usage-based charges for disbursing that money. Oh, and any app displaying third party ads (basically all of them) must stop doing so.

Personally I think that the third party apps weren't even considered in the decision making process because they're such a trivial percentage of API usage (credible reason to expect that all of them combined were ~5% or less of API usage, slightly more reliable numbers to believe that Apollo was < ~1.4% of API usage). Whether not factoring those in was incompetence or not is probably a matter of opinion. Or maybe there was actual malice and someone did want them all gone if someone on the official app side regarded them as competition to eliminate.

If the apps were considered and it was (quite fairly) decided that they needed to be a source of income, that's trivial to accomplish with reduced impact on the apps and more income flowing directly to Reddit. Boom! New policy! API usage requires a paid account and has enforced limits based on the account type! Introduce account tiers other than just Premium, change some features between them, collect all the money instead of filtering it through developers paying 30% to the app stores, and it's all very easy to implement for the developers.
Love the data driven approach to massive problem
It hadn't occurred to me that dealing with sleazy publishers also implied wasting huge amounts of time on some not-Latex submission format.

I hope PLOS (and whatever similar things have sprouted up) take the hint, and allow non-time-wasting submission formats.

It depends. They might have a screen and can be used directly, but those screens are often broken, so app will still give you a better experience, at least at EA.
Read that thread -- the summaries and glossary it gives are very helpful.

My brother needed to take a certification test for his (non-technical) job, and he had a bunch of dead-trees to study...

So I asked chatGPT to summarize each section of the study material (a national test for a trade) -- which it did

I then asked it for smaple questions which would reflect the test for each section, and it did.
Sadly, many of them would rather plan to ruin the world and then flee to a (cough) "safehouse" (cough) in New Zealand than in any way get a clue.
Is it something that needs to be fixed? I surmise that Nature Brief Communication, by its name and the guidelines you gave, is about briefly communicating new results. People read it so that they can get brief summaries of new results in the natural sciences. It would do a disservice to the people that read it if they announced that they wouldn't require one page of text and two figures for new submissions, because it required too much work for authors.

If you wrote a novella, and wanted to submit it to a magazine that published short stories, I don't think it would be reasonable to complain that they didn't want to publish your work unless it was edited down to meet their guidelines. Why is it different for scientific papers?

It just seems natural to me that different publications would have different audiences and different goals with what they are publishing. They're read by different people for different reasons who want different things from the publication they're paying for. Naturally that means that if you want them to publish your work, it has to be right for their readers.

Is there something I'm missing?

You resolve it the same way you do now. It's not like police in the UK will refuse to arrest someone who is breaking UK law because they're not a UK citizen. So citizenship already has minimal impact on selective arresting policies.

Extradition is another issue, but again, it's separate from citizenship and if anything, its current implementation is the most realpolitik demonstration of practical geopolitical power, since it's constrained first and foremost by the location of an individual, regardless of their residency or citizenship status.
Some people run servers.
I think it's situation dependent. A senior role (actually senior, not one with "senior" in the title) where you've met a bunch of people and had lots of discussions / interviews, a call and debrief is only fair. Not passing the recruiter screen or coding interview for a dev job, email is fine, another call is weird.

In any event, the sooner you know, the better.
It depends on the type of work. No, I've never needed a face-to-ace with a PR, and it'd be less efficient to do it face to face because it often needs more than 1-2 people in office looking at it.

But I have noticed that it's much harder to brainstorm ideas remotely. Where you want fast back and forth, everyone to speak their minds, notes to jot down. These aren't as efficient to do on a computer, at least not for my generation raised between tech and analog.

For certain definitions of "almost everywhere", I suppose? Care to define that more rigorously?

Most American city-dwellers I know wouldn't be aware of in-season food items, and wouldn't care either, because grocery stores stock almost everything year-round, so if you're meal planning based on what's in season it's nearly an afterthought, or superfluous. Growing food in the desert and importing it from the Southern Hemisphere really works to blur those lines for us. When I was preparing fresh meals at home, I considered eating what's in-season and paying attention, but that turned out to be a lot of pointless work.

It’s also functionally identical to the equivalent J1772 device. You can (unwisely!) use dumb adapters in either direction.

It’s unwise because there is no way for a passive cable or adapter to tell the car to limit current to anything below 80A.

"Oppressing" seems a bit much here. That's great that you prefer working from home, but if the people paying your salary don't share you view on this matter, it is hardly a violation of your rights as a worker.

Trump Is Charged in Classified Documents Inquiry
> it would make sense to be able to disconnect someone else’s car

This seems like a bad idea for something designed by for use in public with no direct supervision. I would absolutely prefer that no one disconnect my car over having the ability to disconnect someone else's car. I can understand having some override that requires a little mechanical effort in the case of malfunction, repossession, or something like that. However, I wouldn't want any random person to be able to disconnect my car at their discretion. That is a recipe for chaos at charging stations. Plus the caveat of "once its fully charged", already means you need to let the car have at least partial control over the unlocking mechanism anyway.
What's stopping software from becoming a commodity?
A hard problem to solve. But if there was ever and opportunity for twitter to use its resources to create a competing platform it would be right now. They could create “twitter groups” and basically mimic the functionality of Reddit. They could even start it as a separate service and slowly merge them (to avoid any negative preconception of the twitter as a brand).
> The fact that he found refuge in Russia is a great tragedy.

This really is the core of it. If it were anywhere but Russia, I would probably hail him as a hero who made a great sacrifice, but instead despite my general distrust and dislike of the US government, I feel like his motives deserve questioning.

I am open to being convinced that I am over emphasizing Russia. I am definitely no Snowden scholar and I'm not very well read past the various headlines and comments I've read over the years.

The scale is totally the same. I used to lie to my parents about eating candy that my grandmother gave me when I was 5. The Bush administration and media apparatus told lies to the American public as pretext for an invasion that displaced ~4.5 million people and killed another ~1 million. These things are equally bad and should be treated the same way.
There is no alternative, so I'm not sure where people would move to.
> Currently none of the existing chargers, if it all, work with Teslas.

They all work with Tesla models that support CCS. In North America it means buying a dumb adapter. In Europe everything is on CCS type 2 Combo so no adapter is needed and all brands of charger charge all brands of EV.

None of the reports around these NACS deals talk about which protocol will be used. They may end up using the CCS protocol with Tesla's plug.

Ultimately this is all the continued failure of North America to pick an EV charging standard. Incompatible infrastructure is a stupid outcome that's bad for everyone. It sounds like there's still years to go for North America to catch up to Europe.
Steve appears to have assumed there is no recording, so he can represent the conversation dishonestly. Unfortunately, there is a recording, so we can all hear that it wasn't a threat and that the reddit representative admitted that on the call. The optics of ineptly smearing Christian look terrible for Reddit management.
I agree with you on all that, but regarding your first point, they shouldn’t have said capable, but rather “willing.” I think people are too quick to say “oh, I could never do that” when in reality they could, or could at least get pretty damn close to it.
I shudder to think of all of the "materials", documented materials and undocumented bonus materials, going into these completely non-FDA-regulated supplements.

I don't get it either. I discovered Asahi via HN and my characterization of comments here is 1) enthusiastic (I can't wait to run linux on my m1!) 2) appreciative (impressive job, asahi team, in a short time!) and 3) impatient for new features (oh man I just need support for x and then Asahi will be my daily driver!).

I've always thought about this too but I've heard this is a non starter for advertising companies, most companies want to know exactly where their ads are being served before putting money on the table.

But no, they haven’t done it: if they have craft if they have biologicals if they’ve managed to develop any tech (which they haven’t) then they should release all of that is what I mean.
At this point they have released nothing, they’ve shown nothing: zero results, just whistleblowers testimony; all talk, no action. Ha ha ha! :)

Tbf, you could totally lose your job with a single edit if your identity is associated with your Reddit account. It would be very very very hard to argue with a straight face that the admins added a racial slur to your comment without sounding completely crazy and dishonest.
I have been reliably informed that homogenized dairy products increase inflammation, and so I've made efforts to purchase creamline products instead. It's been revelatory, the difference and enjoyment I derive from it. I've found Straus Creamery makes amazing milk and yogurt products. Sometimes the milk comes in a glass half-gallon with a $2 deposit and I return them to the store. It's kind of a game to scoop out a big plug of cream from the narrow-mouth bottle! I guess you're supposed to mix it into coffee or tea, but I just kind of eat it. Yummy. Also, this kind of milk seems to keep for a good bit of time and it goes sour very, very slowly. The fresh scent is very delicate.

The yogurt is likewise amazing. You can get European or you can get Greek, if you don't want to pay for water. I get the plain stuff and again, it's got delicate flavors and odor, not the real tang of plain mass-produced yogurt. It's great to mix with my Muesli or just have a few medicinal tablespoons every day. In fact, it's difficult to stop once I've started spooning it out.
My dad ran a robotics engineering company after being vp of engineering for a company Siemens bought that did factory automation (conveyors first, then of course robots). Playing doom in his office while he overworked into the night is when I learned about computer networking mostly...I follow in his footsteps in the overwork)

Anyway, in automotive manufacturing right now frequently the industrial automation firm is told they will be paid net 240. This is insanity. It leads to unnecessarily long projects as the firms have to figure out how to cash flow enormous expenses.

In the meantime, inexperienced competitors regularly fixed bid quote something that cannot be safely and timely built for the quoted budget, ignoring profit. They win the project and they're worn down to a nub and either go under or deliver to avoid being sued into oblivion, so it's a horrific race to the bottom.

The latter behaviour I witness regularly in the software consultancy industry and it's a bothersome thing.

Recruiters get paid by the employer for a successful placement. Start by understanding that business model.

Recruiters wait because candidates often don't accept an offer, or take another offer, or negotiations break down after the offer. A good recruiter will keep a candidate who wasn't the first choice so they can act quickly if the job doesn't actually get filled.

I've worked with recruiters and sat on the hiring end. Sometimes when a candidate doesn't get an offer they call the hiring manager to ask why. A candidate with a professional attitude will go through the recruiter, but people often take "you're not hired" personally and demand answers, and at that point they've met the hiring manager and know whom to contact. The employer may want to keep their options open because a decision to make an offer doesn't always lead to filling the job.

It may also come down to priorities. Recruiters don't make any money from candidates they didn't place, so following up won't rise to the top of their daily list. How quickly and honestly a recruiter follows up says something about their professionalism, but also about the likelihood of placing the candidate in another position.

Can you clarify “don’t track you”? Apple charges its advertisers for ad clicks and reports the conversion rate, so whether you make a purchase after clicking one of their ads is definitely tracked (conversion is the main big money tracking data point that Facebook and Google care about).
