> inviting employers the opportunity to monitor employee home-life, recording private conversations, for example.

Employers have bigger things to worry about than some minor employee’s bickering with their family. I think you can safely worry about bigger things.
Luminus has a successor called Kit.
As a vim user, I am 100% convinced that I am not that much faster than my colleagues who use normal key binds. However, I subjectively feel a lot less friction editing with vim keys than I do with the mouse and arrow keys. So Vim makes me happier...
Unless I'm missing it, it doesn't seem to be on the actual Concorde Lego set anywhere. Just on the box.

I'm guessing Airbus own the trademark, and it may be a series of Airbus owned aircraft sets.
I have a couple doctor friends, and they on occasion share to a private group chat anonymized screenshots of humorous patient intakes and reports, and retell stories of the amusing situations they get into and patients they encounter. There's also some tales of drama between staff and how silly some of their mandatory racial/gender/body-positivity seminars are.

They're otherwise more diligent and ethically minded than their coworkers in how they attend to patients and happen to be very progressive politically. I believe they see it as irreverent gossip about work just like any other profession, although sometimes to me it seems like TMI.

It doesn't shock me though, my grandfather told me stories of how at NYU Medical & Dentistry school he and other students in the late 1930s would prank subway-goers by leaving a purse with a cadaver body part inside.

While gossip to private circles may be widespread, I am unsure if public sharing is.
Possibly it’s my short attention span but I stopped reading at the line about running out of landfills.

Absurd thing to say.

It's not what I think, is what actually happened: a russian guy protested ONLY for his lifestyle, a burger, not for his government killing other people.
Uber drivers in NYC are just as bad as taxi drivers in my experience.
The cognitive load of using vim is the same you have while riding a bicycle, or while typing with ten fingers on the keyboard.
After you get used, it's very easy.
You just need to study or to play with it, e.g. with https://vim-adventures.com/ !

Class III study, 33% increase of dementia incident, over 45yo, >4y of taking PPIs. Correlation does not imply causation.
>Neovim started out as a large clean up and refactor of Vim code, plus the addition of async code.

I don't think that is actually true.

As far as I remember Justin and Thiago (I think) wanted to implement the ':term' into vim and Bram just shut them off because he didn't wanted to lead Vim into the road that Emacs went.

And this was what prompted the Neovim fork. And they took the oportunity to also make a big refactor in the codebase.
True, and the Star Wars micro fighters are an even more extreme example.
>Which uncovers an even bigger problem: people making medical decisions on whatever some "influencer" on Tiktok says.

What if the influencer is... a doctor? I recently saw a TikTok from a self proclaimed doctor with about 500k likes about how Benadryl is not recommended as an antihistamine anymore compared to newer ones like Claritin because it can potentially cause dementia when habitually used for many years.

I don't know if it's true or not, but it's something I'd consider looking into further the next time I need to make a decision like that.

Interesting side note. I tried to actually find this TikTok and searched "benadryl" in TikTok's search and got this message instead of any search results:

>Be informed and aware

>Some substances can be dangerous when used or misused. Learn more about how drugs, alcohol and tobacco can affect your mind, body and behavior: https://www.tiktok.com/safety/substance-support/

But it's also important to acknowledge that doctors also give bad and incorrect medical advice. That's why the concept of "getting a second opinion" exists. I think especially in the United States, there are many maladaptive incentives that encourage this. In the United States, it's still routinely recommended by doctors to circumcise baby boys for supposed health purposes even though no other developed country does this for non religious reasons.

Dentists are notorious about this sort of thing:

- https://www.rd.com/article/how-honest-are-dentists/

I think the healthcare situation in the U.S. has given going to see a doctor this rarified air - like I had to fill out so many forms to go through this experience, I got to my appointment right on time and still had to wait 45 minutes, and will have to deal with so much hassle after it's done and probably a surprise bill or at least a phone call with either the doctor's office, or my health insurance company. It's like peasants seeking an audience with the king.
Bingo. The competition are the model planes and cars my dad and uncle used to build with the kits from Michael's/MJ Designs. No need to worry about glue and using tweezers to attach tiny pieces.
My system is a little custom and complicated and tailored for me specifically, but basically my device periodically sends a ping to a service I built in cloud. I also have something like the google inactive account manager set up which is probably easiest for most people who use gmail:

This is most likely due to those names not being allowed for files or folders in the Windows file system. MS Teams channels create a matching folder in SharePoint where file attachments are stored.

As we are bombarded with more and more oxidative stressors with a less nutrient rich diet more of these disorders will become common, we are already seeing this with anxiety and depression.

The root cause of mood disorders is an inability to cope with oxidative stress.

I think it only implies they worry about people cutting and pasting channel names into other things like random powershell scripts.

Not necessarily - it could mean that at some point they believe they'll need to create folder or file with the same name as a team, and they don't wanna have to deal with weird collisions.

It's been a while since I've used Teams+Sharepoint, but I vaguely remember being able to have a Sharepoint workspace per team channel, and then being able to mount those workspaces as a shared/network drive. Stuff that might end up in the workspace is like... shared/uploaded files or something?
I think the addition of new pieces was incredibly clever.

When I started playing, I first just tried to play like it was regular Tetris on the furthest side of the board -- a strategy that was quickly foiled.

The implementation of an extra dimension is also pretty cool, but as a game design nerd, I think it's more awesome that you managed to force players to engage with the concept.

True, but that's a case where you're doing it on purpose by choosing to do floating point math, where that's standard behavior. That's a bit different than data loss resulting from an assignment operation, where data loss is not standard behavior.
Sure, but the contents of what that proposed agreement can be - and are - limited by law.

You can't offer a salary below minimum wage even if both parties agree. You can't have people work hours above a certain limit even if both parties agree. And (at least in EU) in the exact same manner you can't have take-it-or-leave monitoring of all employees even if both parties agree.

Such monitoring may be permissible with genuine 'freely given consent' if it was given without any expectation of terminating the relation or any other adverse consequences or differential treatment. If you say "I'll give you $100 if you consent", the employee can agree, but that doesn't count as valid consent or binding contract and doesn't permit you to do the thing with that employee's data, privacy rights aren't for sale even if people would want to sell them. And you might get consent from some of the employees, but IMHO there isn't (and shouldn't) be any EU-legal way to ensure that you get consent from everyone, because if you do, that's a good sign that's not "valid consent" as defined by EU law, that it wasn't freely given but conditional or coerced.

A good analogy for how consent and privacy is handled in Europe (not in USA though) IMHO is like consent to sexual acts; if in an otherwise identical situation consent given in that manner wouldn't be appropriate to violate someones asshole, chances are that consent wouldn't be valid also for violating their privacy; If part of employment contract or company policies says "I consent to my manager arbitrarily monitoring me" it is about as legally binding as it saying "I consent to my manager arbitrarily fucking me", i.e. just empty words.
I thought this as well but there's plenty of dangerous commands that aren't escaped here. I'm assuming it's a limitation of it actually writing something to the filesystem, hopefully your own (with the desktop app) and not one in Azure.
You know by “village” they don’t mean a literal village right? It’s a metaphor.
‘Large’ creature – with 20 arms – found lurking in Antarctic sea

Yes. Or something equally head-scratching.
> And they had the audacity to send a "how was your hospital stay" questionnaire to the account holder's email after they were "discharged" by the hospital.

That feels like an email that deserves an honest response:)
> The structures were able to stick to soft cells for 16 hours even as the cells moved.

I appreciate the imagery of a tatoo metaphor, but I feel like permanance is a major component, and this is not quite that (yet?). The article also talks about applications for electronics, which makes this seem closer to a "nanochipping" experiment than a tatoo.

Even if it were permanent, how useful would it be without some sort of nanobot swarm constantly tagging cells? Don't cells divide relatively frequently?
JetBrains is valued at $7 billion by the Bloomberg Billionaires Index and they build their popular IDEs in Java... So Java isn't de-ad outside of corporateware...
Interesting - but I don’t assume malicious intent when incompetence is a simpler explanation. Wealth does not imply universal competence, though it often gives its beneficiaries such a delusion.
We do use XMPP, and by default I disabled notifications for all groupchat rooms so I get instant notification for 1-to-1 chats and can respond and ignore the rest. In Slack it's quite common (from my observation) to ping lots of people at one time and also create channels for all sorts of notifications (build failure, like it had to be _instant_... what for?!)
Fun fact! Unless you have no eyes or no optic nerve, you'll basically always see something. Even 100% blind people can still see shadows, movement, the sun, etc.

Most of the "blind" definition is around driving and reading.
There is also a myth in the US that nothing ever gets accomplished in Europe due to its bureaucratic nature. Or if it does, it takes exceptionally long to accomplish it.

Other than that - AI is arguably supposed to be a huge asset for humans however with such poor performance such as this, how are you supposed to trust its other content if it spectacularly fails as such?

I don't see this as a self-responsibility issue more an erosion of trust.
Does anyone know how that charts are created ?
I bet that it's half generated by some sort of library and them manually improved but the generated animated SVG are beautiful.
In the USA specifically, I thought? Or which other regions has that happened in? I remember Comcast specifically having a monopoly in many areas and being able to pressure Netflix into getting money from both sides of the fiber (consumers and service providers)
I don't have a paper I can cite you, however if you talk to vim users most will tell you they feel more efficient and less friction compared to "normal" way of editing code. There's a reason this program is so popular and there are vim keybindings for any popular editor, after all.
Exactly. You can accurately say "evolution isn’t controversial in the scientific community" (with a qualification), but you can't accurately say "evolution is completely uncontroversial [full stop]" (unqualified).

A course-grained "controversial" tag will either apply very broadly or be inaccurately used (out of parochialism or other bias).
Yup. I know someone whose father was the son of refugees who lost everything and whose mother's family lost everything the Great Depression.

By the time this person was born, both parents had good income, but they continue to live as if in poverty (extreme frugality, never replace anything if they can spend 10x more time/money to repair, dumpster diving, etc).

The parents are low-level hoarders. The child is even more so.

It seems born of the trauma and uncertainty.
Totally. Our company mitigates it by assigning a specific desk to you if you come in often enough.
Yes this would be my only "ultra-short" term, I had 1.5-2 year stints before (many startups) but this is an exception. The reason you suggest is actually true, so I wouldn't even have to lie. People are going to the ER for ulcers.

> Amazon has tracked the attendance of US-based workers and targeted those who appeared to fail to comply with its hybrid working policy, sparking concerns about privacy.

Concerns about privacy? Really? They expect that entering and leaving their employer's building should be something that they should be unaware of?
A few things I've learned (mostly) as I've become less of a packrat than I once was.

-- You just need to get into a mood sometimes where you go to your attic, garage, or whatever and get rid of the old computers and stuff you're never going to do anything with. Yes, there's some nerdy kid who might want that old laptop but I don't know who they are and I'm not going to waste a lot of time finding out.

-- Try not to let things get to the point where even contemplating doing some sorting and winnowing is so painful that you just lie down until the feeling goes away.

-- Digitize as much as you can. OK, you're still something of a digital packrat, especially without good metadata, but at least it doesn't take up space.

-- I've found leaving some larger objects out by the road with a free sign can be pretty effective.

At least where I live, there are junk removal services but that presupposes being organized enough to have a big pile that can be taken away some day.

ADDED: It's almost certainly true that people in the US, especially outside of urban cores, do tend to live in larger homes so it can be very tempting to just hang onto stuff rather than going through the work of sorting and disposing.
My employer is. The LLM agent did not replace any humans, though. It was created as a new value-add service for clients.
Don't think about it as a way of "shortcuts", but as a language of sorts. Yes, it will take some time to learn.

While I'm a heavy vim user myself, I'm not sure if it really makes me more productive. But it is more fun to me than, e.g. working with VS Code.
As an employer, I don’t want you checking your bank balance on my equipment. I don’t want to know that about you. I don’t want to worry about accidentally storing your confidential bank info on my servers and then if I have a breach it’s way worse because now your bank info is breached.

And mainly, as an employer I need all the info on your computer, it’s valuable. And there’s not a way to filter out what’s weard_beard’s family messaging them vs work stuff. So I just keep it all.

Of course I don’t do that because I don’t employ people, but that seems rational if I did.

So what I do, individually, is I have a phone. It belongs to me. If I want to check my bank balance, I use my phone. If I want to receive messages about my family’s health, I get them on my phone.

Even if my employer promised never to monitor my work computer, and they kept their promise, I wouldn’t want my kids’ school messaging me on my work email or my work phone.
Even when you look at some ~2 year ones before? I did too many startups.
I'm confused. I skimmed/read it, but it seems like a guy with unusually healthy work boundaries describing his day. Where are the ten jobs?

Even if he does work that many jobs, it's too specific to be interesting in general. He checks email twice a day and rarely has meetings.

Most people couldn't find a single job with that limited team interaction, let alone ten.
Thank you for the example.

> And sure, you could invent a rule to "fix" this case, too.

I would just do the simple thing. If X is not already defined when it is used in the function signature I would just give a compile time error. Easy to implement for the compiler author, easy for the developer to understand and rectify.

> But next week, you'll encounter another headache, and another.

I believe you. I guess it is one of those things one has to see for themselves to really appreciate.
Even worse when this happens, and you find that it's an old post you made. Happened to me more than once. I never realized this was intentional on reddit's part; I just assumed Google was broken.
You've clearly never spent much time with children. They care about anything that looks cool, and will easily fall down a Youtube rabbit hole learning about it.

Nearly every toddler I have come across knows about dinosaurs before they have ever set foot in a museum. My kid knows about the Saturn V because of the LEGO set. He loves the Space Shuttle because of a picture I took at the Smithsonian. His mind will be blown if/when we visit Udvar-Hazy.

The kids are going to be alright.
I'm sorry but having observed this since 24/02, collective punishment is very much part of the actual Western values.

This is correct. Every channel is backed by a Sharepoint folder (maybe this is configurable?) that contains stuff like uploaded images, videos, recordings and transcripts of meetings, etc.
Pretty much. Just checked the logs, that's only happened 3 times since last restart which was 4 weeks ago.

This is the way I look at it. The productivity claims are probably a bit overhyped. For me Vim is just simply fun! It makes me think of the best way to do something, and there is always something new to learn. It makes me happy as well :)
Consumerists can also become hoarders via their consumerist habits. I have an Aunt whose house is full of new books and clothes primarily with tags still on them. She effectively lives with her depreciated life savings.
I did see that on the forums, I guess some more transparency on that would have been helpful, since it seems they only told people well after the fact.

I am a happy owner of a Librem laptop and very much want them to succeed as a company despite all this (assuming that they can get new leadership), but that can't happen if they can't simply be honest with their customers. They're doing something extremely ambitious so it's OK if there are setbacks but they need to be transparent about that. They need to be honest about the setbacks in getting the Librem 5 shipped for people that have been waiting literally years for a phone, and not change refund policies after the fact without clearly communicating it. Trying to silence critics via toxic positivity also isn't helping.

In the investment email, they say that they expect to ship both a Librem 11 tablet and Librem 16 laptop sometime this year, that also seems naively optimistic at best and extremely dishonest at worst. As much as I'd love that to happen and would even consider buying a Librem 11 in spite of everything, if they're struggling this badly to ship a phone they've been working on for years, I don't know how they expect people to believe that they can ship two completely new products in that amount of time.
