No one mentions this, but IIRC solid state batteries are less likely to catch fire without a obvious reason.

While such fires are extremely rare, they have happened, and scare at least some of the potential market.

Considering that there are definitely those that do not buy a EV for fear of fire, that could be a selling point.
Yes, agreed on the RLD, not sure about the weed shops, that will at least break the connection with tourism though locally it will just go underground.

Weed shops always were legally grey for several reasons.

But I'd rather have them limit the tourism first, that would automatically reduce prostitution and drug sales to the point that those industries would likely shrink with some reduced crime as a side benefit.
Most banks are still running COBOL at the core, I think. That's at least the case here in South Africa. Each bank then has large IT teams building interfaces and pretty things around the core, using languages such as C# and Java.
If you make it straight from milk it's (not yet pressed) paneer - it won't have the creaminess of ricotta. It is a decent way of quickly approximating khoya (milk solids by evaporation) though, I think.

I've occasionally seen suggestions to use whey from paneer to make ricotta, which is nonsense - it's already been acid-split to make the paneer, all you're really doing is taking some of your paneer curd and calling it ricotta.
I won't pay for it because I don't want to use Docusign.
You're moving the goalposts. You said "custom-made visual programming kit" not "custom-made functions in a visual programming language".

It's strange that you would object to writing "custom made" functions in a visual programming language, while you seem just fine with writing functions in JavaScript. Why are "custom made JavaScript functions" ok but "custom made Snap! blocks" aren't?

It sounds to me like you originally misunderstood that Snap! has already existed for many years, and that you could "build your own blocks" with it (which was its original name: BYOB), and mistakenly thought the teachers wrote their own entire block based visual programming language just to generate html. And now you're trying to move the goalposts when it's clear that simply isn't true, because Snap! and the other block and text based programming languages that inspired (like Scratch, Logo, and Scheme) have decades of experience and widespread use in education.

And you're also totally missing the point that this is about a multidisciplinary university, not a trade school for pumping out code monkeys and search engine optimization "experts".
Huh. I think skyscrapers are terrible (for the people outside the skyscraper, in their effect on people's state of mind) and if I lived in Manhattan, I expect I'd be angry about this skyscraper, too.

I still remember the slight feeling of oppression ("menace"?)

Do you think this might be your own issue and not about skyscrapers or other people?
The answer is if it isn’t notarized I didn’t sign it. Go away. And then I submit a copy of one the judge signed as evidence.
> Google did not cripple their products to work only on Chrome.

Without defending Microsoft, they deserve a visit from relevant authorities, at least Calendar, the search results page and YouTube have had "funny" issues with other browsers and sometimes they have went away if one changed how the browser identified itself.

> I highly doubt that Google, one of Mozilla main sponsors, had ads against Firefox in their Search homepage.

I saw it.

"Download a better browser" it said when I was already using Firefox.
> I tend to try something on with employment contracts too - I return an unsigned copy to the company.

So you email it back without comment, which shows you received it and understood what it was, and then started work… I suspect that’s binding in many jurisdictions, and the lack of an actual signature is simply an inconvenience
You could easily get by by saying it was just a mix up and you emailed the wrong PDF. Not saying it's ethical though.

I'm also not really sure which situations an employment contract would really hurt you in tech besides maybe some IP stuff. NDAs are usually separate.
No, it's normal to pay speakers or to at least accommodate their expenses. This was just a scam.
Hey, about the raspberry pi, I have had a bunch of problems with it eating the micro SD cards, like they fail in six months or an year tops. I had countered this for some little time by using it to boot and relaying to a hdd. How are you handling this? Is there some special micro SD card that doesn't fail as soon?
Self-hosted Docuseal also sends emails to the signers - you just need to add your SMTP configs to send emails.

Right, and a lot of tools out there already provide a less horrible Git experience by taking care of all the user-hostile command-line arguments (SmartGit, etc).

The only problem with Git is that it is not user-friendly - and that is the Porcelain, the nice API version.

OT: One of the heads of the US Navy during WW2 strongly believed that the submarine should be made of glass.

He worked towards that his entire career, but was rebuffed by his peers - for non technical reasons.

I don't remember the details, but am thinking of how that would psychologically have change the way we relate to glass, and the research of its properties and uses
> Do they not assign you a dedicated account manager like everyone else does?

That's the TAM he's mentionioning.
At least launchctl is usable as a cli. Look at the xcode command line tools, in particular try to sign a bundle from the command line.
Yes, and the original commenter's point is that git does not support this well, at the data model layer even. Because commits have exactly one parent commit, which is immutable, and because rebasing creates a new commit, rebasing an entire subtree with N nodes under it requires N operations, rather than just 1.

Personally I think it's a pretty small price to pay for the advantage of the single-immutable-parent model, but I do think it's surprising that there aren't better tools for this workflow. I do this all the time, but manually and painstakingly.

The author lives in Italy. From the first paragraph:

This maybe seems to be a weird post, especially for those who don’t live in Italy, because here in Italy there’s the common belief that the abilites of a worker, usually are less considered than the qualifies that it has. Or simply the employers don’t ask “what you are able to do?”, instead of “what are your credentials/studies”.
Thank you so much for this

Any reason? What about emailed only PDFsS Email is a minor identity validation.
Or... Just upload to YouTube and embed it.

And YouTube will deal with transcoding to different resolutions for different devices, auto select what quality to send depending on bandwidth, ensure it works on all popular platforms, and all the other bits of video hosting that these researchers didn't want to do.
I've been with Deutsche Bank for 14 years and it has been mostly smooth sailing. Some things require calling my account manager and/or driving to their local office with my ID card and their contract forms are ridiculously lengthy, but overall I can't remember any major issue. I use the Banking4 app for online access and import into Agenda bookkeeping. For Sepa deductions from my customers, I can import CSV files through Banking4 and then submit them with HBCI. Oh and don't be afraid to ask for rebates. Good behaviour in the past may allow you to get lower fees, because then you're lower risk for them.
Is the front line the still staffed by humans then? Or does something first scan the email for unsubscribe and all its synonyms, and send them a canned reply, before escalating to a human.
Not that I necessarily agree with the person you’re responding to, but their point seems to be that this is a bad faith action, not that they will get in trouble for it and need to cover it up with further bad faith.
The problem with "there are similar efficacy rate alternatives" is that, for most psychiatric drugs, it's not necessarily the _same_ population that is helped by two different drugs at similar efficacy for the same issue, even if the total success rates are comparable.

A number of people have tried many different individual or combinations of treatments before finding something workable, or close enough to workable that you can paper over the cracks. I would strongly suggest against concluding the lack of access to something isn't an issue for some patients because they have alternatives, without very compelling evidence.

A story from my recent past - I've had, historically, no issues swapping between different generic manufacturers, or name brand and generic, if someone stopped making something I was taking, or I moved and the pharmacies stocked different versions, or whatever. So a little over a month ago, when I noticed my meds looked visibly different after getting them filled, I checked to be sure they hadn't given me the wrong thing, but no, same dose, different generic manufacturer, and I stopped worrying.

...until I started getting extremely nauseous to the point of being debilitating, for 6-8 hours every time, when I take this medication twice a day. So I went back and tried the third generic manufacturer the pharmacy had, after a few days of making sure it wasn't a fluke, and the third one had the same issue. We finally ended up switching to the extended release version of the med, which had still more different manufacturers, and did not have this issue, since the first manufacturer had a shortage for over a month and counting.

Medications are a lot less interchangeable than we might hope.
They are man-made, mostly non-biodegradable and mostly non-recyclable. Which means they are thrash. I'd rather avoid ingesting or creating thrash.
You know what's extremely cheap to manufacture? A larger fuel tank. How many mainstream passenger cars are being sold with a >80L (>20 gal) fuel tank because prospective car buyers "are addicted to options that remove limitations out of anxiety"?

Americans are addicted to features, lifestyle and luxury (actual or perceived).
[Google Drive]

Anyone who has the link can access the file. There is no authentication. It's only as "secret" as the email you put it in, or the Zoom chat room it was dropped into, or the web page it is published in.

The shared links do not contain a secret at all. The base64-encoded part of the link is the file object's UUID! Look at it as you copy a shared link, vs. seeing it in the URL bar. It doesn't change as you edit the file, move it to another folder, or share it out. It won't go away until you've deleted the file! If you notice that someone has a link and they shouldn't have it, then you'll just have to copy-paste the content into a new document, and throw the compromised one in the Trash. Goodbye, revision history and all metadata.

Common use cases involve sharing to groups of people, you know, more than one person who might keep a "secret"? What if you've shared a link to 30 people, how do you ensure that 31 can't open it?

"Three men can keep a secret, if two of them are dead."

As opposed to passwords, which people know are secret[citation needed], links are shared. I mean, Google Drive literally calls it "Sharing", so who will stop sharing after the intended recipients have got it?
Having to cater to the absolute lowest common denominator holds back progress. Why should I be forced to adapt your preferred workflow and limitations if I prefer to have a wide-screen monitor or another standard tool.
I did a lightning talk back at devopsdays Minneapolis in 2016 titled "Updating Classic Workplace Sabotage Techniques" based on the book published on the topic. 5 min video goes through all the techniques:

> ... This creates a need for human users to prove to websites that they're human, sometimes through tasks like challenges or logins.

No I do not? This sounds incredibly condescending as a user – I don't need to prove anything.

Their example of Play Integrity API is alarming because that essentially means either use this OS and this browser which has been verified only by us or we will not allow you to use the internet (SafetyNet vibes)
What does 'without supervision' mean in this context?
There is nothing that every IT person _needs_ to know about OpenBSD. Most probably do not know it exists, and there is no consequence.
It's like an filter to determine whether the user is worthy enough to use OpenBSD. Last time I used OpenBSD must have been back in 2000, 2001. Extremely well built system and the impact it has had on the world is mind blowing. I later changed to FreeBSD which had a bigger community and better support for graphics drivers, etc.

Isn’t it widely recorded that handwashing only came to be a norm mid-1800s? If doctors weren’t washing theirs at the time, I have a hard time believing peasants would be doing so in the 1200s.
I had to do a one-off brokerage (where I don't have a personal representative) transfer fairly recently and, although they loosened up a bit during COVID, they were back to basically requiring me to show up at a brokerage branch in person. In theory, I could have gotten a Medallion Signature from my bank but it turned out they couldn't do it at my local branch and getting their central system to do it failed, so I just drove the 40 minutes or so to a brokerage branch.

This is the problem with things like account recovery. If you really want to minimize social engineering etc., you'll do something requiring a physical presence and various sorts of government issued ID and will probably cost money. And people won't like that. (And the companies won't like it because there's a lot of overhead.)
Tell that to the pharmaceutical manufacturers who ran clinical trials, received guidance from the FDA, and have been required to black-box-label the drugs according to the suicidal ideations which were scientifically proven to increase due to taking the drugs. I don't know where you got "assume"?

A GTX 3080 Golden Edition TM vs a Pentium MMX/32MB with Inform6 (and that's more than enough to run several builds in parallel) or a Pentium II@333 with Inform7 and some text editor.

More than funnny, it's shameful. And a huge waste of resources. I mean, if they used AI's for parsing papers helping bioinformatics and medicine, that would be a great case. Not for text adventures, where with Inform6 and basic logic you can create a game in a month. A week to write a good script (literarian script), another one to code it and two weeks polishing things and bugs here and there.
Correct that is (unpressed) paneer, not ricotta - the latter should be the acid-split curds from the whey left from a rennet-set cheese; the result is much creamier (and of course much much lower yield).

New Study Disavows Marshmallow Test's Predictive Powers (2021)
No, some of us complain bitterly about tipping culture because the waitstaff should be paid a living wage without having to be tipped. And some of us complain even more bitterly because the pittance they are paid doesn't keep up with the cost of living and so the amount of the tip as a percentage of the bill has to keep going up.

To be clear: I tip well when I eat out. My irritation at the system is not something I take out on the people serving my food.
That just sounds like a normal day of interacting with basic German IT infrastructure. It's all the same.
Reminds me of a SPAM email we get quite frequently, the "World Company Register". The attached PDF reads, "To update your company profile, please print, complete and return this form. Updating is free of charge. Only sign if you want to place an insertion."

Then at the bottom in tiny type it says that you've agreed to a 3 year insertion at 995 Euro per year.

I can see small businesses easily falling for this.
I think they'd say that constantly writing grants, publicizing, and coaching is the work they do now to keep those grad students fed, productive, and equipped. At least in my lab, the advisor was very attentive to make sure we were all doing our best work, even if he wasn't doing the work himself.

> It was certainly a breakthrough, but the idea that computers immediately became quieter, cheaper, and more reliable is false. They were much larger, initially, compared to analog computers of the era. By almost any measure, they were also much less efficient with energy, though this may depend on what sort of calculations you are doing - I'm less sure of this.

Not only against the analog computers of the era. Early vacuum tube computers were significantly less reliable and less energy-efficient than electromechanical digital computers, like the Harward Mark 1.
If you want 1 signing key per JWT, you would need to generate a new key pair for each JWT; wouldn’t that be too expensive? Or was the generation included in your tests?
Because they don't make it and see no possibility to win the battle too, otherwise they would already have make it. It's a big Market. So the question should not be why no low-ball cores or how much area, but rather why they no do.

One of the reasons could be that x86 instruction set is to big compared to the arm instruction set and one do not need such big instruction set in mobile devices anyway.

Another would be that a big instruction set needs more real estate on silicon just for the logic. But why even invest in that? Smaller instruction set but more parallel calculations is even faster for the target group.

So...
If only that were true. Linux really should be the developer's system but for many reasons it isn't for a lot of people.

Judging by my colleagues (whether more or less experienced than me), "whatever the GUI allows for".

Yes, almost the entire company runs on the subset of git presented by Visual Studio and Azure DevOps. I would guess this is more and more common, and even the more obvious shortcuts available for many things through git itself will become more and more arcane.
As an investor in robotics, I found this interesting:

> Nick Pinchuk, CEO of Snap-on, another premium brand, said that in 2010 the company’s U.S. factories had a roughly 100-to-1 ratio of workers to robots. Today it’s 8 to 1, but the gradual transition helped the company identify the optimal roles for humans and machines, he said.
Indeed - as soon as you start work, and get paid, then an employment agreement exists between you.

If they emailed you terms beforehand and you still started work, then most courts would take that to indicate your acceptance of the terms.
Come to think of it… this sounds like the kind of thing that'll make the bank really unpopular with a lot of people who wouldn't become customers anyway. But I don't immediately see why it's bad PR in the eyes of the people who have enough money to bank there.

Some countries have electronic signatures linked to biometric IDs. Various devices can then be used to verify the signer's natural identity when signing documents online, like a mobile phone (both smart and dumb).

I lived in a country like this and all my electronic signatures were linked to my natural person. Most documents were signed this way - from rental agreements to tax returns. It was very uncanny to start using things like Adobe Sign or DocuSign afterwards which is very popular in the UK and US.

For the curious - look up m-signature and e-signature in Lithuania.
Yeah, the proper timing for free consumer internet services was in the noughties and early 2010s. Now you have to grab consumers attention with huge marketing campaigns and that can only produce a good return if the service charges consumers in some way
I agree. To underline the futility of this article, the factoid it leads with was how many years OpenBSD has been around. That bit of trivia is completely irrelevant and has no technical meaning or direct implication. No one ever asked during unscheduled downtime "quick, does anyone know how many years OpenBSD has been around for?"
Still surprises me that tactics like these are legal. There shouldn't be a concept of fine print... The whole notion is ripe for abuse.

Same with elder scams. Too many potential avenues for scams via contracts.

I think if a web page formatted with nothing more than <h1>, <h2> and <p> tags isn't displayed well on your phone, the failing is with your browser, not the page.

Surely a web page with utterly default style and zero layout should be a minimally cromulent experience on any device. It's just headings and paragraphs, with the occasional bullet point and indent. There's no stylesheet. There's no reference to millimetres, pixels or point sizes. Everything is defaults.
