We had one of the few sit down pizza hut restaurants in NYC and went there a lot with my family. Later on I worked near by and went for the lunch buffet frequently with coworkers. Then the pizza changed at some point and I didn't care for it.

No I crave Tommy's in Gettysburg PA. They still make pizza using the original recipe and same sit-down atmosphere right down to the textured red plastic "glasses".

Yikes.
Presently in Nebraska we are bracing for a heat index of 117°F, a situation with no precedent here in 2020, '21, or '22. I contend that what you describe as "apocalyptic hysteria" is the only reasonable and appropriate response to such a morbidly inhospitable climactic state of affairs. It's no more "hysterical" than screaming and banging on the windows when trapped in a hot car with no way out.
How does it work with notifications? Is it possible to get a notification on the user's phone when one of the apps in the virtual phone pushes a notification?
“Less ads for the User”

That does not track with my experience at all. Ad prevalence has only increased over time.

This is probably politically incorrect, but there was always a path to end crime, just like there was and is a path to end slavery and collective punishment. That path is kindness: get a job, don't feel the urge to commit a crime, avoid prison to be sure you live a good life, and abstain from crime if you are poor. Crime continue to exist because selfish people put selfish needs ahead of sociology and human rights. People refuse to change their behavior, and, because (not "so long as") they refuse, there will be no end to crime of any sort. Sure, there are edge cases of accidental theft or something else non-criminal, but the vast bulk of cases are from irresponsible criminal behavior.

> Is it democratic to tell these women that they’re wrong, and to impose a scheme of gender balancing that overrides their individual voting preferences?

No, and I would not presume to do so. I am only expressing my view that, over time, these preferences would counterbalance each other in a way that results in a distribution in our institutions that broadly reflects the demographics of society.

You mom has a preference for male elected officials. But maybe my dad has a preference for female elected officials. My comment isn't intended to reflect negatively or positively on any of that, I hope you see. It's only a theory about population-level preferences as applied to our public institutions.

I'm not suggesting anything normative, just describing what an equitable society might look like and why an all-black Senate for some period would not be unrepresentative when representation is aggregated over years and not just seats or states.

> [W]hy isn’t it appropriate for a white majority district to prefer a white person to represent them?

I am not saying anything is not appropriate. I think my main point didn't get through.

The core of what I'm saying is that when looking at representation in a public institution, it's useful to take into account the history of that institution and how it has been constituted _over time_ rather than just in the present.
Really? I am very suprised to hear that. It looks very polished to me, and the UX has been much less frustrating for me (as someone who was on many slack teams over the last 4 years). My sample size is small, but fairly consistent in that evaluation.

It's not a dealbreaker but that is a significant inconvenience for me. I do local development over file:// a lot.

One thing I'm wondering about is dynamic loading of modules. Say my main.js should only load extra.js under certain circumstances. How does that look?

Lady doesn't want to talk about it -> the owner was some man who is not in her life anymore.
I had a similar, though less impressive, find last year. I was going to the park with my daughter and spotted a pinball machine dumped near the entrance (in a couple pieces). I did a triple take and then immediately called a friend to help me. It was a Bally Midway Spy Hunter. Much of it was in decent condition, though it clearly had been outside for about a week.

The issue was the previous owner had literally torn the backbox off of the cabinet, and had snipped the two bundles of wires connecting the two (at least 50 color coded wires). So it required woodwork to mount the backbox back on, and rewiring.

It sat it my garage for a few months before I accepted that I wasn’t making progress and I gave it to a friend.

Anyway, yeah, people dump this stuff! My hobby dev project is a pinball one, so it felt very serendipitous to find one sitting on the side of the road.
You can't redirect clients that cannot even parse your domain name. I can't update the links in all the indices and search engines built the last decade. I can't change the links to my .onion site on other people's sites. No, most .onion domains just went away, poof, inaccessible and sit unvisited while the remaining tor v2 infrastructure goes unused because the tor project clients dropped support. There's more to a web than any single site. And that web of interconnected links was destroyed with no recourse.

As for fundementally insecure, yeah, in a few years maybe by spending $10k you could brute force a hash and take over a domain. So they killed it entirely to protect the people that need absolute privacy and security. They could've left v2 alongside v3 and let people choose but the tor project considers that too risky for their prized use case.

Those of us just using tor for owning our own domains were not important in comparison. That "not being important" will continue. Shadowy users are what tor cares about. Not open communities. Tor is great for pseudo-privacy. It is not great for people wanting to make normal sites on it.

> There should be an effort to offer 50 years of security updates for Debian 12. That would create more value for real businesses than all the work that will go into Debian 13, 14, 15 etc.

Well business is free to sponsor such effort, I'm sure Debian project will be happy with extra money. Just that cost will be steadily growing year by year because backporting new fixes to ancient code gets more and more expensive in general.

Also majority of security problems will not be "distro machine is running" but "app that is running on that distro". A container with app that can just run on modern distro is far more preferable method to support something for long time.
What the other guy said about drugs is probably a good idea.

> In most fields this is extremely rare.

For example?

In pretty much any field I can think of, it is definitely not rare. The norm is that some people pick things up quickly and other people don't.

It is normal for good musicians with 3 years of experience to be better than bad musicians with 10 years of experience.

It is even more normal for good secretaries with 3 years of experience to be better than bad secretaries with 10.

My mother once partnered with a local university to offer students internships clerking in her medical office. She remarked that the students, with their zero years of experience, were more effective in this generic, unskilled role than anyone she was able to hire into it. (Those people had many years of experience.)

The partnership with the university wound down and she went back to hiring no-hopers with plenty of experience. According to her, that was the best she could hope to do for the dead-end position she was offering.
Oh really? One team for managing IAM, one team per S3, one team for file process automation, one team for process management, one team handling the producer process, one team handling the consuming process, same for application on both side, the client who actually need the request +everything else.

One team for a shared platform where it makes sense, sure, but everywhere, like it's some factory chain is the biggest waste of productivity.
Nothing to add to your well-stated comment. This sucks.
> defaults of encouraging interruption and lack of structure and lack of long-term retention of knowledge

I guess the emphasis is on "defaults" because interruptions can be minimized by seeing notification levels and muting. Lack of structure? There are channels and threads, I'm not sure what else I'd need from a product like that. Retention is fixed by paying for it.
I’m not sure if I’d use the term but if someone in a group is constantly high maintenance with respect to food, both the group and they themselves probably lose interest in paddling against the current.

It’s not even really pickiness per se. If some group always wants to just eat fast food I’m going to be less inclined to join them. No value judgement. Just not my thing.
It’s price and the ease the price enables.

Low price demonstratably rules in everything from plane tickets to groceries to basic services to clothing as it enables a life of abundance and mental ease.

A friend loves Walmart as it means he no longer has to maintain his lawnmower. He just throws it away and buys a new one annually at the start of the season. He can still mow his lawn while abandoning the need to maintain mechanical knowledge.

I love Walmart as I no longer need to really consider how many of an item I need. When socks are $5 a pair at some of the more expensive stores, buying a huge pile is pricy. Walmart let’s me buy 40 pairs of socks for like $20 and just not keep track of their wash status or where they are in the house.

Walmart makes it so that everyone can solve their problems with a bit of money.

Small stores can’t replicate any of that due to economies of scale. Sure, their workers might be experts in lawnmowers, but when lawnmowers are so cheap as to be single season items, that expertise no longer has value.
This sort of feels like seeing someone riding a bike and saying: why don’t they just get a car? The simple fact is that containers and VMs are quite different.

I’m responding to what I believe is the intent of the comment, but I will also point out that on a literal level it doesn’t make sense. Whether something uses VMX and friends or not is a red herring, as gVisor also “rolls it own” VMM [1] and certainly makes use of VMX and friends.

Yes, may be I will try to find a sponsor in the distant future. I don't have any serious funds so I think it would be easier to promote it while it's completely free. And for sure I don't plan to integrate in-app purchases or annoying ads which can effect current users in any way.
not German so no idea, but pretty much how US is perceived literally anywhere outside the US including much of the English speaking world (there often the most because they have even more exposure culturally).

the reason why they feel threatened or resent the system might have to do with the US showing reducto ad absurdum what the ultimate conclusion of capitalism will be. Like a mirror that allows you to look into the future and it ain't pretty:

people without housing, no empathy for those worse off, lack of culture except the cult of making more money, most people stuck in several jobs without making ends meet, no functioning public transport, cults that celebrate billionaires and fake it until you make it culture (Theranos, WeChat, SV in general), a large proportion of the populace illiterate or in other ways too incompetent to vote for change, the ones that are able to vote do not have any choice other than a 2 party system which is the same sh1t but different color.
do you have any plans to open source this?
Seeing you throw up this stream of flimsy arguments makes me suspect that the current equilibrium in the West (of most people's believing it is futile to have social norms against sexual behavior) is held in place mainly by motivated cognition.

In other words, reading your comment made me less sympathetic to your position.

OTA allows software hacks to mask hardware issues long enough to see out the warranty period.
Blockchains can extend the guarantees of the blockchain only to concepts that can be completely represented on-chain, which basically meant just coins. They don't have to interface with the real world so aren't subject issues at the boundary. At least that's one way of looking at it. As soon as you start trying to represent things that actually exist in the real world authoritatively, it breaks down - because the authoritative representation is actually off chain, i.e reality. In this case your identity is the authoritative representation, not the key you present.

>> They are actively hostile to user control.

> Android has great privacy controls and has had them as long or longer than Apple has.

These can both be true. Android can have great privacy & permission controls, and also be better at many of these things than Apple, and also have systematically cut back on users control of their own devices, time and time again (Android 7 making it impossible to manage your own CA certificates, Android 14 tightening that further, sideloading restrictions, SafetyNet/Play Integrity making custom OSs & rooting unusable, etc).

There's a lot more to user control of devices than just app permissions, and "Better than Apple" on this stuff is not a high bar.

A written record of the decision-making process is also a potential solution to the problem of the human tendency to generate post-hoc rationalisations when asked why a particular decision was made. This is valuable even if the decisions themselves are not of a higher quality.
>yeah I saw some bad stuff there. After what I saw I don’t think anonymity is a good idea

This is a somewhat one-sided way of thinking.

Tor is a tool that can be used for useful things as well as misused for bad things (like a knife or a truck). Now, leaving aside the fact that websites related to credit card fraud, child pornography, and terrorism also have a large presence on the Clearweb.

Also, I'd like to note that Instagram is a global hub for human trafficking, and the moderators' stories don't sound any more innocuous than the Onion stories.

I use Tor daily and abide by the law, but don't want to miss the anonymity or pseudonymity of a Whonix VM and a Tails session.

Since I've been hosting Tor Nodes since I was 14, I don't have to worry about showing up on blacklists of 3-letter organizations, since I've been on top for over a decade anyway.
Where exactly do people say Mariguana? Not in Mexico. If you over-pronounce Spanish the J catches in your throat a bit, but it's still an H sound.
There are deep links and, if you pay for it, retention. Are you looking for a CMS, something like Notion maybe?
So the equivalent of:

iptables -N eth0toeth1;
iptables -P eth0toeth1 DROP;
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -j eth0toeth1;
iptables -A eth0toeth1 -m tcp -p 80 -j ACCEPT;
# add any more rules

Or, as you say to avoid exponential combinations, just make a chain for each zone (interface) and explicitly allow specific protocols/ports to target interfaces. Zones with multiple interfaces are just multiple rules to jump to the same zone chain.
And your company doesn't mind you doing that during work hours?

All this tells me is you've never worked in agricw, and no other industry than tech at a professional level, because you think it's unique. It's not.
> Picking between three codes in a few categories isn't really that much work.

True, but it's not just that. These changes are just another item to add to the already very long checklist.

I'd much rather they add to the App Store ToS "I will not use the following APIs/syscalls for fingerprinting users: [stat, UserDefaults, etc...]" rather than all this busywork. Since these restrictions are enforced by the review team (vs. the OS), the end result is the same.
Did that experience actually reflect what you'd be doing on the job, or was it just another bullshit interview experience?
I'm curious why you wouldn't consider those people just because their existing experience doesn't 100% overlap your tech stack? Could they not be trained on how to write backend .net? Wouldn't the diversity of experience be helpful for your team?
I guess perhaps you can express your technical and leadership/management skills separately? "mid-level developer, but with prior professional experience in another industry and strong leadership skills" or something. It'll take a bit of work to explain, but I reckon it should be doable. (I have a similar issue with several years of non-professional programming experience I have prior to my first job).

The most economically efficient companies in my career always make it insanely hard to add head count to the team. They tease you with "might get a head count next quarter". Then frequently freeze the head count during your search. They are trying to squeeze as much as they can. I'm not saying this is a pleasant working environment, but it is very good for the bottom line. Also, it is sometimes more efficient for them to give modest pay rises to best performers off-cycle to motivate them to work even harder.

> Having it control access to something that is not specifically a location service but that might sometimes be usable to obtain information that can be used to figure out location does not seem wise to me, because all kinds of things that you might not expect to provide such information do. For example internet access can provide location information indirectly via IP geolocation.

Using Bluetooth beacons you can get the location of a user accurate to a couple of meters, possibly granular enough to identify the individual. Continuous tracking can track your movements with the same scale. IP geolocation will at best be a radius of multiple kilometers. There's a big difference between "I know where you're standing at this second" and "I can guess what part of the country you're in".

>I don’t know if it’s the best attempt but I understand what it is and what the goals are.

a bad solution can potentially be worse than no solution in this case. A false belief in identity guarantees can facilitate fraud and other manipulation, while "you should never trust anyone or anything, including that there's a 1:1 relationship between public keys and individual humans" at least advises everyone of the risk.
