This is a GREAT point, but hard to do in practice when deferred can be several multiples of base. I know many people who internalize large sign on bonuses and deferred comp as though they already earned the income. They are psychologically unable to accept writing this amount of money off, and force themselves to stick in situations that are at times not healthy or at least sub-optimal. Often times this is called life, and you deal with it because it is putting food on the table and providing above and beyond for your family. However a lot of times it would be better to just find something that makes you happier which is easier if you don't factor in deferred comp when thinking through personal finances.

The vast vast majority of trucks are not filled to the brim (and even if they're at their weight limit, they often have "air" in the box).

"Lowboys" are mainly used for large construction equipment where they need the extra height.

A semi-trailer is a surprisingly cheap piece of equipment.

Some trucks that are special purpose use the lower areas (see https://www.mayflower.com for an example; household movers have more weight capacity than space).

For those with mental health you obviously can not decriminalize this

The exact opposite is true. It must be decriminalized for those with mental health issues.

Criminalization of drug use was never about crime or drugs. It is to install a pipeline for people in poverty to be directed into a for-profit prison system in which they are used as legal slave labor under the 13th amendment.

Drug use is not ever a criminal issue. It is a health issue full stop.
The CDC is smack in the center of the city (on the other side of the river). The WIV is way outside the urban area, past a very large industrial park.

The distribution of cases also strongly contradicts you: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9348750/figure/...

Cases were roundly distributed, not along any particular artery. Note that the WIV is not even close to being in frame there- that's how much farther away it is.

>An investigator with the local police department blamed the collision on the truck driver, who was initially charged with negligent homicide, though charges were eventually dropped

I wonder why.

Another issue is the size of trucks. The state where I lived:

* Truck size was limited, large trucks were only allowed on one Highway. Goods were transferred to smaller Trucks for transport to factories.

* Driving trucks on Sundays was not allowed.

* Large Trucks were not allowed on City Streets. Since this happened it is open season on bicycle riders.

Reagan de-regulated and Trucks can be any size, plus they can clog the roads on Sunday. The last item I do not know when it was enabled, but it happened after Reagan.

I now heard of trucks with 3 trailers but never saw one. I think it is about time we limit sizes to what existed on the 60s. If you need 3 trailers, time to go back to freight trains.
Unlimited API access maybe
>However, I want to have a TLS-secured gRPC server also available on the same domain

Now this is getting into opinion, but I don't believe gRPC was ever intended to talk to browsers. And with TLS termination in the mix, are you really even saving anything versus just translating to HTTP(S) and Gzipping for the clients?

A typical setup is Backend -> protobuff grpc -> GQL/Auth server -> HTTPS -> client

With the backend and GQL server in a VPC, so no need for TLS.

I'm telling you that all navigation through multiple waypoints DOES usually look like this kind of pushing and popping (just on a massive scale).

So here's a possible day for me:

I work at corporate office A, it's near the highway entrance. I have to pick up my kid - they are at school down the local street heading west. I travel west and pick up my child.

Now I need milk. The closest grocery is back east, just past my office, so I drive back by my office and pull into the grocery.

Then I load up and set off for home. To get there, I need to take the highway to the north, so I head back past my office on that same street and get on the highway using the closest entrance.

I take the highway until I'm home.

That sure seems like a normal day to me. It's exactly what you said folks would never do, but it's super common.

Employers who pay less on benefits (pay less health insurance premium, pay fewer vacation days, pay less FICA, etc.) have more cash available. They could use that to pay higher salaries. I'm sure you've heard and that you actually do take into consideration the "full compensation package" when evaluating one job against another.

Also not trying to fight. "Could have paid you more" does actually happen in the right type of competitive environment -- though most employers are more likely to avoid direct salary increases to instead increase other parts of the "full compensation package". It's relatively much easier to later reduce those other things than it is to reduce direct salary, if things go sideways down the road.

Seriously.

The Wordpress approach of dynamically composing every page server-side made sense:

* Before AJAX made personalizing the 'logged-in experience' easy even on a mainly static site

* When CPUs were so slow that regenerating, say, 1000 static HTML files just because you updated your footer or your "top stories" sidebar would take an annoying amount of time instead of what, 4 seconds now?

* Before spambots essentially made it impossible to host a comments section, and Disqus and the Facebook plugin became the defacto choice for anyone still brave enough to try.

Due to the above, I can't imagine using PHP or even some sexier-today technology to dynamically just-in-time assemble HTML pages that 99-100% of the audience will be viewing statically.
> How and why would they have that kind of data available if the virus only existed in the lab? At most they could have had computer simulations, but no real data.

I'm not a virologist, but this doesn't make sense to me. If we work under the assumption that this was a lab-made virus that leaked, then they plainly must have actually created it. What's the point of having a real virus if you aren't using it to generate real data?

Even in the unlikely scenario where they made it, stuck it on a shelf, and did nothing: they could share information about how it was created, which would give insight into it's potential current and future behavior.

> The only information they would have had is the DNA sequence, but that was rapidly sequenced anyway, and design of the original vaccines followed in short order.

This isn't true. They would have information on how it was created, any work that they had done to devise a vaccine for it, and any other data they had accumulated on it.

> This whole discussion is ultimately useless, and the people pushing for it were never interested in finding solution, but only in finding someone to blame, which has no impact on the outcome.

It's not useless at all. If it turns out to be true, there are plenty of meaningful ramifications:

1. In the pursuit of stopping fake news and propaganda, real information from whistleblowers and researchers was suppressed and careers were ended. It would be a useful lesson in free speech and the open exchange of ideas.

2. It shows there are clearly deficiencies in these labs. Inspections could be more frequent, standards could be raised, all sorts of changes could be made to prevent it from happening again.

3. And, yes, if there is someone or some entity worthy of blame, they should be blamed. Why should their fault be hand-waved?

The ones in the TFA are remastered - color correct among other things. The ones in the Flikr are the unprocessed versions of Apollo Hasselblad photography scanned by NASA's Johnson Space Center. You can download the original 4000x4000+ resolution scans from Flikr.

It's not 'some conservative personalities' and it's amazing to see people here so blatantly try to gaslight others. It was the president of the United States pushing the lab leak hard before any evidence fell down and then republican officials following up with the argument that it was a bioweapon. The reason why they did it was because they wanted to give people a reason to distrust authority. That was part of the M.O even though the person pushing this stuff held the highest authority office in the land!

I'm skeptical of the lab leak theory regardless if it's Trump or Biden pushing it because ultimately the US government is going to use whatever it can as a political weapon against other countries. This doesn't mean it's not potentially true, nor does it make China right, but it means people should be inherently skeptical of any positions the US takes on stuff like this.
Sort of. It uses a pre-defined transformation that doesn't interfere with street navigation. If you're on a street it will precisely reflect that value as well as any other GPS. But it makes it difficult to perform purely GPS-based instrument navigation, which in theory makes it harder to conduct eg missile strikes.

The mainstream media had deemed this notion not merely wrong but dangerously absurd, and tech companies followed suit, suppressing it to the best of their abilities.

""the social contract""

There is no such thing.

Faceboook, Twitter, Reddit, Instagram whatever exist to make
money, or whatever those who own it or run it wants.

It is your choice.
You wish to spend your time adding value to a website
someone else runs great.
Does that give you rights? Nope.

Normally in extremely obfuscated ways, the contract you do enter into
by using a site will tell you exactly that you have no rights at all
and they own everything you do.

I agree that it can be unfair.
But you actively decide to provide content.
You cant make up the rules for the sites you do use.
You can stop whenever you want.
You can start your own site.

I did so a few years ago when I got sick of this shit.
On the other hand, I have few visitors.
I can howl in the wilderness.
For me it is preferable.

If you do engage in one of the big social sites, you are
given access to an enormous audience.
You can post something that "goes viral".
You get fame, site gets $$$$, maybe you get $$$.
News can easily quote you from some of the big social sites.

How often do you:

This makes the idea that sites like Reddit only live and thrive because of user generated content and they're nothing without it, reverberate all across the room.

Looking at what Reddit has done, it makes things obvious to me that the APIs that are free to use are only a gimmick and companies can pull the plug on you as a consumer at any moment.
I mean, I can easily imagine that Reddit originally published its API to look "cool" but look at what money has done today.

Why could you not make an offer to buy out Apollo or other 3rd party clients before you closed out your API Reddit? Fuck your leadership and the so called idiots on your management team that pulled ideas straight from a dumpyard.
> I feel like we're going back in time because the best way to find local restaurants has become walking / driving around the neighborhood to see what's there, or getting word of mouth recommendations.

Let's face it, that never stopped being the best way. There have always been problems with internet reviews, if only the ones inherent in the 1-5 star mechanism. But, it is very inconvenient to ask around for recommendations when you're (for example) hungry and passing through an unknown town or something. So I get why we need a source that isn't completely unreliable.
Not sure I understand your point about summarizing a document. If you want to summarize a document and it's less than 16,000 tokens, you pipe it into gpt-3.5-turbo-16k. If it's less than 32,000 and you can afford the cost, you pipe it into gpt-4-32k.

Hallucination continues to be a problem, though GPT-4 is massively less prone to it than 3.5. My instinct right now is that you can resolve a lot of that problem for the Q&A case using additional careful prompt engineering, but I don't yet have a recipe I'm 100% confident in myself.
napster was fire up the program and search. You needed to know which FTP server you were going to pull from, often you needed to upload a certain amount of content just to download anything. Did you actually ever use Scour or Audiogalaxy pre napster? Because I did, and it was vastly more difficult.

They do when you're the one doing the repairing. Or a friend you repay with a couple of beers. Pretty common in the 80s, and this is what we should go back to. Sure, electronics has become a lot more complex since the 80s but we also have a lot better tools for the job now.

I'm one of those friends for many people :) In the last month alone I've fixed several devices. Some of which sex toys which caused great amusement of my makerspace friends - I have some kinky friends :P I already have a job so I just do it for fun, and it is actually quite fun. Every device is another little puzzle.

Some I couldn't repair because they were simply too horribly built though. There was one electrified whip that was dropped once and the paper-thin PCB broke and 3 internal components snapped too, one of which (transformer) had wiring so thin it was like a hair. The whole BOM was a couple dollars at most, and it was sold for almost a hundred. That stuff is really not worth fixing. I feel bad for the engineers being forced to design something that crap. Nobody does that willingly.

But on quality electronics my fix rate is pretty high. Very very often it's simply a worn out electrolytic cap. Even Samsung puts ones with too low a temp rating in 4000+ euro display screens. It's ridiculous. Seriously, caps, connectors "secured" to the board by only the solder joints, sometimes some onboard fuses. Easily make up 50% of electronics failures. It's not rocket science.

Mechanical stuff fails a lot too, often in ways that are clearly designed to fail. Buttons pressing on a stem that's so thin it's clearly designed not to last. I often design and 3D print replacements that will last forever.
I lived alone, stayed isolated, kept healthy and exercised, took reasonable precautions while outside, and... because this is what you're really asking... chose not to get any vaccination, because data by July 2021 showed its effectiveness waned after three months and I had no plans within the next six months to interact with any crowds or expose myself to another individual for more than fifteen minutes. Then in December 2021, Omicron became the dominant strain, with much lower risk than previous strains, so I decided there was no sense introducing unknown variables associated with a vaccine for diminishing protection against a strain of a virus that presented risks I felt personally comfortable with accepting. (At some point I was also of the opinion that Omicron itself was an engineered strain, but I had stopped paying sufficient attention by that point to have much confidence in that opinion.)

I never felt any need to tell others what decisions they should make, and I understood my circumstances gave me relatively rare affordances of being able to remain isolated for long periods of time. Had those circumstances changed, maybe my decision regarding vaccination would have changed too. But by the time of Omicron, any risk analysis I made seemed to lead to the same conclusion that vaccination was not worthwhile, and if anything, that I should hope to contract the Omicron strain since it might confer the most effective immunity, with the lowest risk of complications, against future strains of the virus.

As of today, as far as I'm aware, I've never contracted any strain of COVID-19. Knock on wood.
I've done psychedelics at home (up to 400μg of LSD at once) and it was plenty safe, I think. I don't know if I'm accurate or not since I'm speaking about myself though, it's entirely possible I could have done something stupid if there was peer pressure. I think it depends on the person though.
