Things like political corruption are exempt from this due to "common interest". So, no, that is not an issue.

As a someone from a country with similar law I think it is a good thing. Social media witch hunts are not good for society and they often fall under our defamation laws but people are still allowed to write about corrupt politicians.
The EU _nearly_ solved this (or at least solved for 99% of cases) by mandating 14 allergens (or, well, problem ingredients; gluten and dairy are more likely to be intolerance issues than actual allergies) which must be declared. They then fumbled this by not specifying a canonical ordering; number 7 is _usually_ dairy, say, but the ordering is not actually mandated. So you still need to know the local language.

(My personal favourite quirky use of the fact that there is no mandated order is by a Kosher deli in Dublin; they don't have numbers for dairy, crustaceans or mollusks because, well, it's Kosher so I suppose it can be assumed. They use the free'd-up address space to call out wheat, rye, barley and oats, which is going beyond the obligation; these can all be grouped together).

I am far from the coffee snob, but Starbucks genuinely taste burned to me. And I know that’s not a hot take, it’s a pretty common line you’ll hear when people are critiquing it. But it is also repeated with good reason.
You can wean off subsidies pretty easily, if you give enough time.

The easiest way is to just freeze them and let inflation remove them; nobody will intentionally start farming corn if the subsidy remained at the original dollar amount.
For what it's worth, Catholic priests specifically remind people (the few who go) not to treat Confession as a therapy session. The purpose of the sacrament is different from talking out your problems.
It's also a consequence of constant R&D improvements.

We can make appliances that last for 20 years or more, sure, but then when 20 years pass you have an appliance that is 20 years old and doesn't have any of that new stuff that came out in the last 20 years.
Wait is this actually better? It's well presented in the ad but:

- that removable veggie holder in the door looks crazy heavy and super awkward to put back in place (lining up at a sharp angle while gripping likely slick sides)

- you have to open the refrigerator door to get at the freezer

- the door compartments are narrow and probably can't handle odd sized containers

- the shelves have holes in them so anything that drips off that uncovered plate of food gets all over everything below it

- the ice ejector is completely unnecessary in our current world of ice makers. I doubt that fridge has a water line coming into it

- the shelves don't look like they have adjustable height so you're stuck with 3 shelves that can't fit a gallon of milk
I do the same. Once in a while I remind myself of the five stages of grief/loss and I go explicitly through all of them to see where I stand now. Although I sometimes feel stuck, doing this exercise explicitly helps me to see I make progress. Progress as in 'two steps forward, one step back', but progress nonetheless.

Logic-ing or grounding is also something I recognize myself doing. And it can all be such simple accessible things to make it happen. For example, looking at a picture or video of my young nephews playing works wonders. Probably more than any talking session, although one has to also get the dirt work out of the way. The hard work of fixing stuff, and then relaxing by grounding work.

My grandfather had one of these fridges that still worked in his basement. While it had those cool space saving features like slide out shelves, it was also significantly smaller than modern refrigerators (and I'm talking about a "basic" fridge, not those fancy french door fridges that are even bigger).

The other thing is the freezer section was not a separate compartment from the fridge. This meant that if you stored anything on the top shelf it would freeze just like the stuff in your freezer, not to mention all the cold you lost every time you opened the door (and speaking of the door, it was effing heavy).

> why were so many people able to function prior to psychotherapy?

Were they? If you look at statistics for harmful behaviours like heavy drinking or interpersonal violence, people in the West were absolute basket cases just 100 years ago by current standards. The incidence of such behaviours is much lower today than back then. A general awareness of psychology might be part of it. Not too long ago we were executing soldiers for cowardice after psychological breakdown due to PTSD. Think about how ignorant that is, compared to what we know today.

Anecdotally, mental illness runs in my family. I have the same personality / emotional instability problem almost all males on my father's side of the family have. He did better than most else of ancestors and I've done much better. And I chalk some of it up to psychological awareness of my parents and teachers etc. about how to work with that kind of kid. Good feedback at all stages. I think I would simply have been expelled from school in an earlier era.
Yup - quit Facebook some years back with no regrets, even despite this, but the reality is that it means missing out on high school reunions, something I will never experience in my life because FB controls it.

Just today I was using my soldering iron passed down from the 1960s. Heats up to full heat in 2 seconds and has fantastic flow control. Nothing similar exists today under $600 (although that's likely the inflation-adjusted price).
> There is a reason vast majority of football coaches/managers are former players

The reason there is nepotism. It’s insanely difficult for anyone without preexisting connections to get any sort of coaching opportunity. I definitely think ex players make worse coaches, generally speaking. They just have an almost insurmountable leg up.

I do think eng managers should be technical, though. Not because I think you need to have done a job to manage it, but because they are frequently asked to make what amount to being technical decisions.
Good to see we’re all on the same page that this piece is lacking.

Focusing on the understanding of intelligence in it, which leads to his goalpost moving theory: there are multiple senses to the word in English, and this dictionary definition doesn’t meet the one we use for what we see in say, the cleverness of children (who “know” very little, and yet..). Or even what we see in animals. That sense refers to something real, and is well explored in philosophy - but in branches that have been avoided by comp sci since its inception (thus McCarthy’s et al.’s mistaken usage and Turing’s punting on considering what it is).

The sense that comp sci tends to lean toward is the one intended in things like I.Q. and seen in puzzle solving. To the degree that we can call software intelligent, it’s because we see this intelligence encoded in it (usually reflective of the authors’ ability in this sense and the tradition they build on). Never the first kind, though.

That’s what keeps us from accepting it as AI.
Normally this makes sense, because you're asking why money was wasted. But, in this case if it's permanently bricked you will actually save money, because if Voyager 2 is bricked the team working on it is now redundant. It's not like they had an incentive to be incompetent and waste money - very much the opposite.
I am getting a Sub-zero in a few weeks which is damn near the most expensive fridge. It does not have nice pull out shelves or the veggie compartments.

I expect the sealing and ethylene scrubbing will keep veggies fresh linger.
Top Reasons to Upgrade to FreeBSD 13.2
That was true 20 years ago. For the past 10+ years XMPP has had Stream Resumption that allows you to resume a few stanzas you missed recently (typically with a poor connection), and Message Archive Management that stores everything on the server that you can then retrieve on the client.

XMPP has had little place on the public stage, but that doesn't mean it stopped evolving.

You could get a clear plastic shallow bin with relevant dimensions to fit on a shelf in your fridge. Then you can take it out and put it back as needed. I just use the vegetable drawer in my fridge though.
Happy 30th FreeBSD: Why FreeBSD open source project has endured
The fridge from 70 years ago was an extreme luxury item. Most people could not afford one. Nowadays we have refrigeration so cheap and accessible to all.

If you want a fair comparison, go spend $20k+ on big fancy commercial refrigerator. I guarantee it will be better than the '50s model.

Just to throw one more comparison. It is not shocking to say that a Rolex watch or a Leica camera from decades ago is better than a Swatch or a cheap point+shoot today.

TL;DR: It's not true that they were better at making things in the olden times. It's true that luxury high end goods are superior to mass produced goods.
But they also do entirely plain units that last well with no 'extras' - their commercial units are also great and easy to repair. But most people want to spend as little as they can so avoid the commercial units.
who and when was this automatic reset on 15.10 added?
In Europe there are energy consumption regulations for household equipment like fridges, see: https://commission.europa.eu/energy-climate-change-environme... . What energy label would your fridge from 70 years ago have?

I hard disagree here. That's what capitalism wants us to evolve into: individual enterprises. But no, there's nothing inherent in the universe or human nature that determines individualism as the true way of working.

You don't have to go far to see people contributing to bigger causes that are not owned by someone else. Open source is a great example of this.

The main reason people idolize entrepreneurs is because they symbolize capitalism's perfect individual. There's a reason society today wants everyone to be an "entrepreneur", but it's not some higher meaning. It's just capitalism.

The “bottom” is also subjective. I see small-town grocery stores everywhere in Indiana dying due to cheap Dollar General stores popping up next to them.

So much for fresh fruit & vegetables, so much for the Amish bakeries that would distribute baked goods through the local groceries.

But hey, cheaply-made goods from China are more widely available.
70 years ago a fridge would cost $250-$400 - about a months salary, that's about $4k in todays money. If you pay $4k for a fridge instead of $400 today you can get one with a fair amount of gadgets too.
It probably depends on where you are, but you can absolutely find brands where the production quality is higher.

It's like with electric bikes. You can buy VanMoof (bling) or Gazelle (quality).
This fridge looks way worse than my current one. Much smaller and poorly designed.

The ice machine looks annoying and inferior (mine automatically drops ice and dispenses it through the door, no touching or work required). Mine also dispenses purified water through the door, a major feature missing here.

Over-use of door space for temperature sensitive goods is a classic refrigerator mistake as it's the warmest section. Combined with the inability to control humidity for fruits vs veg, it's clearly an inferior produce storage system.

I do also have a removable container for fruit/veg, but mine is much better designed for real world use. I can't imagine what a huge and thin door-cage-system would offer you. Total gimmick.

What we don't get to see is how well the temperature is controlled ESPECIALLY between the fridge and freezer. This isn't easy to pull off (and we have degree-accurate settings today) and it's likely that this model runs a lot warmer than we are used to today, especially in the freezer compartment. There's also questions about frost-free operation as many classic units required manual defrost cycles (taking all your food out) while my unit has automatic defrost cycles and guaranteed frost-free operation.

Finally this fridge would have cost $5000+ in todays money. Mine is better in basically every way I can think of and I paid 1/5 the price. I bet mine will last twice as long, use a fraction of the electricity (cost significantly less to operate), and have a fraction of the environmental impact, too.
My wife is a brute[1]. She's broken two of the plastic refrigerator drawers -- the vegetable drawer and the deli drawer -- which were impossible to repair. Yes, I tried super glue, but the bond never held.

It's cost me $400 to replace both drawers -- 1/3 the cost of a new refrigerator.

I wish I had one of these refrigerators; they look virtually unbreakable! And even if it did break, I could hammer it back into shape or weld it back together at home.

[1] She's bent both her house key and her car key, and broken the car's shifter twice!

> Which is all the end product of the demolition of the organized socialist left & trade union movement in the west through the 70s and 80s and early 90s and the retreat of associated intellectuals into academia and cultural politics.

This was not some grand conspiracy, the Socialists just realized that workers in the West were generally happy and well off (iirc Marcuse said "Capitalism delivers the goods") and not at all friendly to Socialists' plans of revolution.

As a result there was a push to shift the propagandizing ("educating") to the next best oppressed groups they could find, with these being the familiar categories of LGBTQ, racial minorities (only certain ones), women etc.).

Just like the socialist revolutionaries of old, the majority of the "New Left" are not parts of those groups. They are merely using them as a "revolutionary mass" whose misery and grievances are single-use tools for the revolutionaries to gain power. Lenin was fuming at Bolshevik party members who actually tried to negotiate better working conditions or pay pre-1917 because happy workers don't have "revolutionary potential" (a euphemism for not being desperate enough to want to put him in power).

> If, as I keep hearing from right-wing commentators, "the left" is somehow dominant, it's only because "the left" has wholesale dropped its historical anti-capitalist mission, and has retreated almost exclusively into culture wars; and generally taken positions which enrage the right on that basis, but doesn't actually challenge any real power.

I explored some of the reasons for that above, but everybody with some sense could see that capitalist societies were happier, almost never genocided their own population, were vastly more prosperous and even produced enough surplus to have better social welfare than Socialist countries. On the other hand Socialism always ended badly, sometimes catastrophically. People are not blind, and associating your political movement with 60 million corpses is not a smart move.

The reason they don't challenge "real power" is because the objective is to gain the power vested in those institutions, not to challenge them.
still not a convincing hypothesis

instead of trying to make the conversation about me or you, and instead of citing maybe-true singular anecdotes which don't prove your case (that space is limited, and lowering rent won't increase rentors), try just presenting the aggregate data showing that commercial landlords en masse have lowered rent to a dollar and still have these vacancies

This was a flaw on the Nokia N900. Or at least, on some of the devices.

I solved the issue by using TOPK magnetic cables. The magnet would remain in the port (microUSB, lightning, or USB-C, not sure about miniUSB but I got like one device which uses that), and all the cables would work with it. I even leave them connected (the LED does not draw much power and I got solar anyway) which allows me to quickly start or stop charging a device. Which, given I got quite a few, is very useful. Another issue is I keep getting leftover microUSB but need more and more USB-C for which the feature isn't very important (the more USB-C I'd have, the easier it'd be to stop using magnetic cables).

The exception is my MBP as it has a MagSafe (v3, my wife's MBP and my old MBP having v2) but I forgive Apple for that; its very useful and probably where TOPK got their inspiration from.
The ice cube extraction feature is pretty cool. Have never seen that before. Do modern refrigerators have that? (I get that we have ice cube maker features, but those can fail before the refrigerator does.)
