Which g shocks do phone notifications?

My problem with the g shock line is it’s so expansive and hard to figure out which does what.

The g shock website doesn’t allow you to filter by phone notifications…
The FCC licenses are given with those station identifying letters and there’s a requirement to broadcast the station ID periodically. Many stations have an additional brand (often <affiliate city> “Fox Boston”), but they still have to use the FCC ID as well.

One of my favorite station IDs was an independent local analog UHF channel 56 with call letters WLVI. I heard those letters for years before I realized it was 56 in Roman numerals.
They only circled around for a few minutes?

You think being publicly traded would be better? That just gives a business perverse incentives detached from the quality of the business's products/services.
How about just asking "Have you ever returned any item to a store for any reason except that it is faulty?"

If they say no, and you don't find their name on a few big stores lists of frequent item-returners, then you trust them. Everyone else, you consider shady and don't offer good deals to.

Remember lying to gain a benefit is wire fraud - so anyone who falsely answers this question has committed a crime - and a store is totally allowed to treat a customer they suspect has a committed a crime differently.
I love telling about that example to my programming language friends.

Well they are memorable for the people that live in the area—at least that was the case when broadcast TV/radio was important. There really wasn't a need for them to be decipherable to outsiders since historically they would be outside of the broadcast range.
If that ruling were to be overturned, would Proton be open to integrating the VPN service in a way that people who access Protonmail from the clearnet would be tunneled in some way? Or some kind of mode where it would reject any logins unless coming from the Proton VPN ASN etc?
Since there are absolutely no sources/further links in the article I could look at, is this based on David Chaums Ecash?

Because that actually looked like a decently private central-ish digital currency.
Could also be that Java's typing already accounts for some part of what would need to be tests in Python code...
> First thing I did was to get it from .net 4.8 to .net 7

This might not have been a great idea, I'm fairly surprised nobody stopped you before you went through with it.

4.8 is the "final" version of .NET Framework. It's pretty much the longest "Long Term Support" offer Microsoft will ever give for a platform, realistically they'll be supporting it into 2030 and beyond. I'd not start any new projects in it, but upgrading away from it probably wouldn't be the first thing I'd do on a new project.

From .NET5, the framework moved to fundamentally different approach. It's effectively a different framework with the same NET branding on it. Most organisations who decided to move from 4.X to 6.X went through a near total rewrite because the paradigm shift is so massive, lots of organisations decided to stick with the pre-5 versions. The architecture and technology choices probably make a lot more sense in the pre-5 version of .NET, and it's unsurprising that your colleagues are frustrated with this decision, irrespective of the quality of their code.

On top of the move between .NET paradigms, you've moved away from a long-term-support version. NET7 is an 18month short-term-support interim release between two Long Term Support 36month versions .NET6 and .NET8. By moving to 7, you've trapped the company into an early & rapid upgrade path to .NET8 as soon as it comes out in Nov 2023, rather than giving the full 12 month buffer you'd have got if you moved to .NET6, which is in Long Term Support until Nov 2024. You moved the application off of a rock-solid framework with near infinite long-term-support, onto a framework that'll be deprecated before in four months, and out of support entirely in ten.

If I were you, I'd probably not be bringing this decision up in any performance reviews or interviews at new companies.
Imagine how tipped the plane would be to land on the tail.

They do align the plane as much as they can to keep the nose off the ground for as long as they can.

But yes, it's the total center of gravity, it can't land on the tail.

You could bring up ALL the gear but then you have no control and it will almost certainly veer off the runway and then it may break apart.
Thanks, I should've figured there'd be a character.
Not sure it that's what you're getting at, but yeah, leave out the watch part. In fact just lose the screen, I don't need or want it.

All I want is a "fitness band" that will track heart rate, sleep patterns, what ever you can stuff in there and just sync it all to HealtKit next time it's in Bluetooth range of my phone. If I go for a run I want the tracking, but not the connectivity and I certainly never want to know the time.

Really happy with my Fenix as well. It's only crashed once when recording where it lost data (3+ hour long GPS session), but other than that I haven't really had serious issues. I will force a reboot occasionally but the user experience is so much better than the Samsung watch I tried.

And battery life...I can put it in low power mode and it just works as a watch until I want to record an activity. And it has power for ~a month that way.

If the center of gravity wasn’t between the front and rear gear, the planes would tip on the ground normally.

In a gear abnormal, land on what you have and the outcome is almost always great for the occupants.

Any injuries are likely to be from the evacuation after everything is stopped.
Bully for you. You do realise a great number of us who live here do so because we love it, weather and all, right?
No it's not editorialized. When something goes EOL, you're not supposed to delete the existing packages to force people to pay for new ones, as this guy did.

If people could still access the already-released free packages, then you'd have a point.
I bought one of these for the solar charging, great battery life. And that works. But it is really hard to read the LCD. The automatic lightning works quite unreliably, and even when it works the tiny screen is hard to read. At least with my old man eyes.
This is why it became common; the FCC requires you say the station ID once every period of time (10? 30?) so people became very used to hearing it.

You can think of it as the "smash like and subscribe" of the radio days!

SysV isn't so much the problem; the old Debian/Redhat standard init scripts for it were the absolute mess. Slackware's implementation of SysV is something I've never had a complaint about.

That said, OpenRC also looks to be a nice system that does its job well without function creep, which is more than I can say for systemd.

Jumbo/9000 byte frames have been a thing for a long time now and a lot of switches enable it by default so you can definitely reap the benefits of 100G/400G. The problem is that every L3 hop also needs to support a higher MTU if you want to route this traffic without fragmentation.

Working the Garden and Spirit: An Interview with Maria Rodale
I highly recommend the book "Other Minds" by Godfrey-Smith, it has changed my view on this topic. I understood that consciousness is a scale. Humans have "a lot" of it, chimpanzees a bit less, dogs even fewer, but we all have a first person perspective of what it is to be us. I don't know where the scale begins or ends, but I am sure we are not that unique. I assume the capacity for consciousness has plenty to do with hardware and it's capacity for complex operations, so I don't know if all living things (like bacteria, or ants) "have it". Other point: at some moments I feel like I am less conscious, just going through my motions like an automaton, or daydreaming. And then sometimes, while meditating or under very intense stress, I feel hyper conscious. Fascinating topic for sure
Under a ton?! Do you mean under 1000 kg? How do you figure?

The Dacia Sandero, one of the smallest cars I can think of here in France, that's also supposed to be cheap so doesn't have a lot of... anything, has a curb weight of 1,025–1,204 kg (2,260–2,654 lb) according to wikipedia [0].

The previous generation Renault Clio, which is a small city car, weighed around 1000 kg, too (980 at the lowest). [1]. Wikipedia doesn't have data for the current generation, which is somewhat bigger physically.

I watched a movie today and ended up ordering pop corn + soda + water. 1 pop corn, 1 soda, 1 water freaking bottle (250ml). They charged me $30 + tips.

I think National Geographic (which I'm a subscriber) can charge 10x more without losing 90% of it's audience. It's the price to pay to receive good articles at your home and it's definitely worth tons more than drinking and eating junk in the dark.
The commenter doesn't seem to be against immigration, but aggressive immigration which is more like encouraging people to move somewhere without creating natural demand through creating jobs and industry. Canada is hardly producing enough jobs to justify this level of immigration, factoring in unintended immigration though marriages and children, you will be looking at grim situation if root causes of today are not solved properly.
I usually get ~300ms ping from my home to us-east-1. You can absolutely feel the latency, especially on SPAs that performs many small xhr sequentially which compounds the latency even more. Apps that felt almost instant when used in network with <10ms latency are suddenly felt pretty sluggish.

Some of my worst experience was being forced to use SFTP to transfer thousands of small files to a server in us-east-1, which can take hours due to latency alone compared to transferring the same set of files using rsync / compressed archive which finish in minutes, and using RDP to access a remote windows machine behind a VPN, then run putty there to access a Linux server (the VPN only allows RDP traffics), and then I need to transfer thousands of files to the Linux server as well (my solution was to punch a hole through their shitty VPN via an intermediary bastion host I fully control, which allows me to use rsync).
Even if they don’t make any changes, or upstream contributions, the integration of individual packages into a full OS distribution is certainly valuable. If you disagree, try Linux From Scratch sometime.
First, pilots should be commended. 101 (or 104) souls were saved.

A by-product of coding up a working solution is one of better understanding the problem. Unfortunately, this valuable result is invisible to many, and its existence seldom acknowledged. Documentation can serve as a proxy for it, to make it somewhat tangible.

There is something intriguing about this image of localizing information along the cable...
That will surely fail because the load isn't spread evenly.

I've been on this quest and have tried almost everything you can name. Even bought a 3D printer so I could prototype my own and started reading electronics books to start putting one together myself.

... but then I bought a Garmin, sold the 3D printer, and can focus my time on other things. I loved my Pebble, but I feel like the Garmin Instinct and Fenix 7 is probably a no brainer. Just a shame that Garmin don't have Pebble's app ecosystem even though their API looks not that bad.

> Why make the client go read a bunch of information piles to re-assemble Humpty Dumpty every goddamn time they want to view the homepage?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but originally it was because "servers" had order-of client compute power. Ergo, it was necessary to offload as much compute to the client as possible.

And then in early js era it was because network latency and bandwidth limitations precluded server-client round-trips for anything user-interactive.

Now, we've got surplus compute and bandwidth on both sides (order-of text payloads), so caching architecture and tooling become the limiting factors.

I love questions like this, that make you examine why you believe the things you do.
We are sorry to hear about your experiences.

1. Currently, the EasySwitch doesn't support import from Fastmail, which may be why you experienced the issue. We would be interested to hear more details about tose issues, so please report them to us here: https://proton.me/support/contact.

2. We are not sure if you are aware but now Proton includes SimpleLogin too, which allows you to create an unlimited number of aliases and also user reverse aliases: https://simplelogin.io/. Here's how you can set up a SimpleLogin account with an existing Proton Mail account: https://proton.me/support/create-simplelogin-account-proton-....

3. We'll pass this feedback along to the Proton Mail Bridge team.

4. We can confirm that the Proton Drive Windows app is coming quite soon. Please report the issues you experienced with the web app to us: https://proton.me/support/contact.

Regarding support, note that the usual response times are 24 hours, but longer during the weekends when we work with a reduced capacity. We've been constantly hiring and training our agents in order to improve this. Additionally, if you have a particular example of a misunderstanding with the support team, we'd like to look into it and investigate.

While we may not been actively moderating our Uservoice channel, we do use it to inform our development decisions. Many of the recently shipped additions to the Proton Mail web and iOS apps have been decided on thanks to the feedback on Uservoice.

We understand the frustration with how the catch-all works right now. The team is aware of it and looking into ways to improve it in the future.
The "trashcan" Mac Pro (late 2013) was my favourite Mac of all time - it actually fit my professional needs perfectly, and performed incredibly well in a small package for a reasonable price (I couldn't spec out a comparable Xeon system at the time that was cheaper). I don't think it could be considered a failure by any means. It was a sweet spot when it came to price/performance for many of us in tech/science industries, and perhaps that was the reason it wasn't replaced for a long time.

Whatever it is, it costs EDF money, and therefore it needs to be a part of the price. Also we were at this point previously so I can only repeat what I'd already said: almost a quarter of the total plants were out last year for unplanned maintenance, meaning they had cracks in the pipes and couldn't even run. This year started in a similar way: more unexpected problems, this will again cost money. I also posted a link to the president of the EDF at the time the plants were built. His quote: "the plants were designed to run for just over 30 years". So where are the replacements. And if they were starting to get built, who will pay for it? EDF is 65 billion in debt, Flamanville 3 cost 15 billion and is unfinished etc. etc. Does not sound viable to me. Can they go somewhere and borrow hundreds of billions for new plants? Here is an article from 2012, where it was already back then clear change is needed: https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-france-nuclear-watchdog-i... . But it never happened. My guess is there was no money for it.

I am not a free market zealot, but you cannot compare the final price to the one in Germany. The electricity market there contains hundreds of companies that all need to be profitable, or at least not lose money, or they will simply be removed from the market. The only exception I can think of are the four electricity distributors which have regional monopolies for obvious reasons. Even the made up number of 500 billion for renewables, even if true, would not mean it cost anybody anything other than what they paid for electricity - the renewables surcharge was always a part of the bill until it was removed. Every model has flaws, but at least here you always know what the true price is, and Scholz or Merkel or whoever doesn't go around making plans on how they will build nuclear plants, which Macron does all the time.

This is quite an oversimplification. Some modules have no active maintainers and take time from the small team that work on CPython. Some modules are deprecated and removed to make it possible to allocate time on other improvements, and they went back on some removals when users came forward showing that they were still needed.

There is some discussion about the rationale at https://peps.python.org/pep-0594/#rationale
> Every time something makes things easier, you get a wave of beginners set to create things they are not qualified to do. And because you now need software for everything, leaders also get into positions where are not qualify to make some decisions about it. You pair unqualified leaders with unqualified devs, and you get this.

How easy it is to call other people not qualified because they have different opinions.

I've seen more projects failed because the only thing the devs cared about was an abstract code correctness, which made even basic PRs getting polished for weeks. I don't think you need to worry too much about types or tests if you are just doing a prototoype to validate ideas or your user base is 0.

Well, if one's management consistently fails in a predictable way that one can adapt to, one should probably adapt to it regardless of whether they believe it's a failure.
I had a very strange, mixed experience with Garmin customer services recently. My watch died after 2 1/2 years. I'd heard that Garmin will, unofficially, replace broken watches for a bit longer than the official warranty (and so they should, because 1 year life expectancy would be terrible for a smart watch), so I contacted them.

The said they'd replace it for free and gave me a label to download (great!) However, I was travelling and the label wasn't valid for where I was. I asked if I could send it myself or get the label re-allocated when I got back (it had a time limit).

We then exchanged a dozen or so emails where Garmin CS kept ignoring my suggestions and giving me stupid instructions (terrible) until we eventually agreed they'd give me another label when I got back (ok).

I got back home and requested another label. CS demanded payment equivalent to the cost of a new watch (terrible!) I repeatedly asked why they were suddenly asking for payment when they'd previously offered it for free and they kept ignoring the question (argh!)

I'd have been much less annoyed if they'd just said up front that it was out of warranty, as then I wouldn't have wasted weeks and dozens of emails.

I eventually noticed that the original label still seemed to be valid, so I took up their original offer, sent my watch off and got an apparently new replacement within a day or two (great! I think.)

So, very mixed views! It's a lot like trying to write a Garmin app. They've got some nice API documentation (with a tutorial) but very incomplete as soon as you try to do something non-trivial.

In my experience, this is the main problem with choosing an off the beaten path language/database/library X.

For all the benefits this X brings, you have to deal with either being a steward of X - or dealing with the aftermath of whatever decisions X made. In a mainstream X, you get a collective averaging effect from the majority of users who simply want their stuff to keep working.
