An iPad mounted to a wall or on a stand would be my suggestion. You can leave it plugged in and set the display to never turn off.

There are a few different ways you could display your photos. One way would be to set the lock screen wallpaper to shuffle photos. The benefit of this approach is it leaves your iPad in a pretty normal state, easy to unlock and use at any time. However, your photo frame is then limited to the customizations you can make to the lock screen, which is still pretty good for your use case and has gotten better recently.

Another option would be to set up a slideshow in the Photos app or similar and then use Guided Access to keep the screen locked to that app or slideshow. The benefit of this approach is that you can display anything with tons of customization. However, there’s a bit of extra complexity in setting it up, unlocking the device to use it if you need to, and setting it up again afterward.

My advice is to try the lock screen wallpaper approach first and then switch to Guided Access if you don’t like it.

The last piece is making sure you have all the right photos from the whole family. For that, use an iCloud Shared Photo Library.

I am aware, just saying per spec, its supposed to be random bit data, thats all I was saying. I am familiar with a spec since I maintain a UUID library that has 6,7, and a custom 8 implemented.

It can have extra monotonicity data instead, per section 6.2 but ideally its random. Again, Not saying you can't do what you are doing, I just know per the conversations while the draft was gathering feedback, your type of change was intended to be done as uuidv8

Are we not on the trail to doing the same with rust, at least in theory? You don't think someone somewhere has the idea to make an all-rust system eventually? Even without that evetual ultimate expression, if you have even a few rust components in your system and not just sudo alone, then the same point stands. You don't count rust itself any more than you count gcc.
This is a push from Congress to force programs into the open that are secretly capturing Russian/Chinese UAVs right? Folks on the committees are angry that China is trolling US Navy vessels with UAVs and this isn’t being publicized.

Something a bit convoluted like this is orders of magnitude more probable in my world model. (Basically, the prior “aliens exist and have been covered up” rounds to zero, so given we are observing this public action, even extremely unlikely explanations could explain it.)
Counter-example: the obsolete space telescopes NRO donated to NASA in 2012 were better than what NASA had despite being nearly two decades old by that point.

> An unnamed space analyst stated that the instruments may be a part of the KH-11 Kennen line of satellites which have been launched since 1976, but which have now been largely superseded by newer telescopes with wider fields of view than the KH-11. The analyst stated, however, that the telescopes have "state-of-the art optics" despite their obsolescence for reconnaissance purposes. [1]

In regards to the data collection, we thought about that but don't want to scare people off. Maybe zipcode is enough? We already added a small option dropdown for occupation.
For an example of this from the early Cold War, see the Tupolev Tu-4. The Soviets took the wrecks of three downed US B-29s from WWII and spent huge amounts of money and manpower studying them and developing copies of them since US strategic bomber tech was so far ahead of their own. Supposedly (though I'd need to find a source again) there was a bullet hole in the wing of one of the recovered B-29s that the Soviets faithfully recreated in the Tu-4 thinking it was part of the actual design.

Try to imagine yourself as a worker with little to no asset ownership. One day you decide voluntarily to cut yourself off from your job. You no longer are able to pay rent/mortgage, and you are on the streets. You're hungry but have no money. You think of the best place to get some money for food.. Maybe that rich neighborhood would be generous to you. You start panhandling, but 5 minutes into it, some local rent-a-cop starts harassing you to get off the sidewalk that's "reserved for the business in front of it". You refuse, stating that the sidewalk is public property. A few minutes later, the police come over and force you to relocate. Where to? You pick another spot, and the cycle repeats until you pick a spot far enough away from everyone. Still no food though.

Now you want to sleep.. need I continue?

In short, the violence is not in "letting someone starve". Most people aren't out there trying to starve themselves. The violence is in preventing someone from saving themselves. Being homeless/penniless is an eyesore for those that aren't. The actions taken to fix the eyesore are the source of violence. What happens to a panhandler if they refuse to comply with police's arbitrarily justified order to "relocate"?

Constructing more means housing prices go down, which would piss off the banking sector and people who has several houses (or even at least one sometimes). It would piss off for sure people who has less than one house (i.e. already existing mortgage contracts).

There are hundreds of commercial and open methods for obfuscating a program during compilation. Since Apple controls Ring 0 they can also obfuscate syscalls and network traffic if they want. I'd ask you if I'm wrong about this, but you already seem convinced.

> You can assume whatever you want, but with no evidence whatsoever, I wouldn't call it "safe", I'd call it "irrational".

It's perfectly rational. Apple already does this in China. We know the CIA, FBI and NSA have a common interest in weakening all domestic cryptography. Taking Apple at face value when so many other FAANG companies have been embarrassed by PRISM revelations is a fool's decision.

It will be irrational once we know for certain that Apple doesn't aid spying on their users. Until then, I figure I'm a safe skeptic. Pending evidence, both of our claims are equally substantiated. Only the uninvested parties have nothing to lose here, though.
Yeah biggest misconception about Canada. It may be the second largest country by surface area but an enormous majority of all of that land is unsuitable for housing development due to either 1) literally being unbuildable ie. tundra or sheer mountain or bog 2) enormously more valuable for agriculture (ie. all the prairies).

There's places where sure yes it would be technically possible to build some new town but it's so cold and miserable that no one would want to and there's no local economic reason to put such a town in such a far flung place. Ultimately we probably will though if the population continues to increase at such a pace.

How dare you. You don't know me, and you have not interacted with me sufficiently to possibly justify such inflammatory accusations.

> People are not cows. You have no right to manage us, or our birth rate, or change us to suit you.

I'm not. Implying I want to manage people like cows is clear bad-faith nonsense.

The arguments of neomalthusians are not correct, because birth rates plateau in response to lots of external forces (like education, providing people access to family planning if they want it, and general quality of life) - with that said its stupid to pretend that we have the technology to sustain our current population levels with even the current distribution of lifestyles, let alone the opportunities we should be attempting to provide to all. One might call that lack of understanding "deficient".

I believe in the agency of individual people - I am against coercive reproductive policies. I understand the problematic history of movements associated with population anxiety. None of that justifies your absurd accusations.

> You assume you know what makes my life good

I'm not the one making assumptions here. What would you say of native peoples whose land is being made unlivable by the climate crisis and loss of biodiversity? Would they be "eco-fascists" for wanting the industrial world to get its shit together?

> The best advice I can give you is to travel and spend time with other people who are different from yourself. What you value, others may not. What they value, you may not.

Again, how dare you. Your condescending inflexibility is truly unreal.

To summarize - you think any discussion of human population equates to eco-fascism, regardless of context, motivation, or the ethical and scientific basis on which it is being discussed.

Is all of macroeconomics fascist because it talks about the behavior of people in groups rather than recognizing all of our unique individuality?

Is anatomy fascist because it studies our literal, physical, animal bodies?

Is all regulation fascist because it constrains our individual freedom in favor of collective good? Even workplace safety regulations? Even pure food and drink regulations? Even regulations against environmental damage that affects future generations?

If there's no room to talk about collective things at all, then your ideological bubble is small enough to suffocate you (or in this case, everyone).

This is interesting, and I suppose has a use of "data over time" but I fail to see how this testing is of any actionable value for the average person. So you're exposed, and PFAS is in EVERYTHING.... so ... what should I do? Nothing realistically. Unless I find an obvious source like my water, there isn't much I can do besides replacing my cooking pans. I can replace my pans without this test.

It's a little like those ads to sell you a full body MRI. Most doctors recommend against them because you're likely to do more harm to yourself than they actually fix something.

If you're concerned about PFAS, live a healthy life and skip spending money on the testing. Live somewhere with PFAS in the water? Get a reverse osmosis filter. Replace your cookware with something that doesn't contain PFAS. Don't use storage containers for food with PFAS. Check your water bottles.

Then live your life, because until we change as a society, there is only so much you can do.

Also ignores the entire defense and aerospace industry. It's laughably ignorant to just write off the STEM talent at places like Lockheed, Boeing, Honeywell, etc because FAANG is a popular destination for CS grads. Also, people here (and in SV in general) doubt the capabilities and talent in the public sector until suddenly a Stuxnet is brought to light.
> Overall, the orthodox/fundamentalist christian position seems to be: sex should only be done for the purpose of making children, only married couples should have sex, and anyone capable of having children should strive to have more children.

It doesn’t really map to either “fundamentalist” or “orthodox” in the usual theological senses (though its more associated with the former), particularly the “anyone capable of having children should strive to have more children” part, which is a modern social movement overlapping with some streams of Christianity, but not really a part of traditional doctrine.

> The only exception to all of this is choosing to become a monk or priest (depending on denomination) - in which case you owe a duty of faith to God and thus shouldn’t love other men or women anyway.

The branches of Christianity that have celibate religious brothers and/or clerical celibacy are also the most accepting of the concept of a vocation of committed single Christian life outside of clerical life and religious orders; there is basically no Christian community I am aware of where monastic/priestly celibacy is a norm but it is the only acceptable non-married life.
I’m not sure it will work everywhere, but for sin(x), one can write

sin(x)
= x/(1 radian)! - x³/(3 radians)! + …
= x/(1 radian) - x³/(1 radian × 2 radians × 3 radians) + …

That makes the ‘radians’ units cancel out.

In the cases I've been involved in, it has largely been oil companies or their subcontractors footing the bill, occasionally scientists or, uh, treasure hunters. (I work for a company making this exact type of recovery gear, so every now and then I have to do some field work)
> How would that work?

It's not difficult. There are known quantitative and qualitative testing methods for finished drug products, and these usually cost anywhere from a couple hundred to a few thousand dollars. In other words: It's typically very cheap.

So say a company imports 1M doses, and say you're an FDA inspector. At the port of entry, you take a statistically valid sample from that batch of doses, and you subject them to those tests. (This could be at an FDA/Customs lab or a third party lab -- in any case, the importer pays.) If there's a problem, you either test additional samples, or dispose of the batch summarily with a note to the importer as to what you've found.

Testing every import shipment, instead of stationing FDA inspectors overseas, would do more to improve the quality and availability of drugs, and more to reduce costs.

As things stand right now, a lot of drug companies don't want anything to do with the USA simply because they don't want the FDA getting into their business, inspecting their facilities, etc. It is a great, and wholly unwarranted and unnecessary, burden.

> how would any contamination be traced by the manufacturer?

That's not the FDA's problem. A batch of drugs is a thing in itself. A metformin capsule is a metformin capsule regardless of who made it and how.

But of course there would be import records and any halfway competent manufacturer would be able to tie a shipment to a production run.
I've used PTFE dental floss for decades, and recently diagnosed with a thyroid condition. I wonder if there could be a connection. This test will at least give me an idea of my blood levels of PFAS.
I had a meditation podcast on my phone for a while. I ran it with episodes queued up, do not disturb on, and an alarm sometimes. “Meditation Oasis” but I’m sure others are similar.

Once you’ve heard the guided meditations many times you don’t need it anymore and can loop music or go with silence.

I think it takes a while to be mindful, let what ever thoughts process in your head, and finally get to a relaxed state. It is nice to fall asleep to also then you don’t need to worry about any time limits.

I don’t know of an easy way to make an app experience similar without some custom notification modes and distraction parental controls.

I didn't invent the conception of comic books and action figures as childish. It's very much worth considering why it exists and where it came from.
There's a reason the 'storytellers' in games aren't getting star billing.

Games are a hugely collaborative effort, unlike books (which are just a collaborative effort).

Music is also collaborative, but there's way more people involved in making most games, than the people whose names end up on an album cover.

Movies are also a highly collaborative effort, but even there, there's usually one 'czar' - often the director, that gets to stand behind nearly every creative decision made in the film (Even if they weren't the one who made it). Again, no such thing usually exists with games. There's just too many parts to them, no one person owns all of them, and the costs of making 'cuts' preclude a single opinionated personality from doing an eleventh-hour pass on it in post-production.
If you say "angles have units" I agree with you - obviously you can measure them in degrees or radians or whatever you want. I was responding to the claim

> Angles aren't dimensionless any more than lengths are dimensionless

They are dimensionless, but they still have units. The concepts are orthogonal.

As for the question about adding an angle to its cube, I would say the enormous usefulness of computing trig functions by power series suggests strongly that this is meaningful.
> I'm trying to imagine how DoorDash would even work without single-use plastics? Maybe we'd have standardized reusable containers with deposits on them that could be returned to a central location for $1-2 refunds per container, where they'd get sanitized and re-distributed via restaurant supply companies.

That reminds me of how much better to-go containers are in some other countries! I was blown away by the quality of to-go containers when I ordered delivery in Beijing, the containers could easily have been used more than once.

I actually would be interested in seeing what a world with zero disposable packaging would look like. Imagine if everything you bought at the grocery store used packaging that you had to return afterward. Think peanut butter put in jars that get returned and cleaned.

Related, I remember when Costco ketchup came in giant gallon sized aluminum cans.
Interesting. A couple of your submissions got pointed to PoliticoPro, FWIW.
Seriously. Oftentimes, though, it's not the government who is ahead in tech, it's the quasi-private sector that is decades ahead but due to secrecy laws cannot come forward and talk about it under any and every circumstance.

I have a relative who recently retired after 40+ years at Lockheed Martin, a great majority of those years were spent within the Skunkworks umbrella. I had the chance to ask him a similar question a few years back. The response was "in the non-top-secret areas, stuff that we're getting ready to roll out into pre-production, we're about 5-10 years ahead of current tech". Which makes sense, because their focus is very narrow. They've been working on a project for a while and have had unlimited money to work on it with, so it would make sense that their tech is a few years ahead of ours.

When asked about more classified research areas the response was "a much, much larger number". And that was it. There's no doubt he knows or knew a lot more but due to having clearance and taking it very seriously, he wouldn't talk about it other than to acknowledge that yes, contractors who are effectively the R&D arm of the military and have huge budgets are probably decades ahead of modern tech.

This lines up pretty well with the theory that when a UFO is recovered by the government, it goes straight to contractors who can do better research with a substantially wider breadth, and also add a layer of plausible deniability to the folks at the top of the government.
I've worked in defense aerospace. Silicon Valley has no relevance to aerospace. Likewise dod computing systems / IT infrastructure has nothing to do with propulsion engineering at govt labs or in industry. You're mixing up a whole bunch of things to make a broad conclusion that old computers means that DoD still isn't funding advanced weaponry beyond which we have seen. See the stealth hawk used in the bin Laden raid.
And what is your contribution to addressing that? It is easy to call entire groups of people "they", but they are people to and maybe the rest of society needs to welcome them with an open heart before they'll integrate.
