One advantage of PoW captchas is that they don’t require the user to click anything. Assuming all captchas are borderline useless (so blocking stuff doesn’t actually matter) that’s a big improvement!

However, that doesn’t apply here, since, for some reason, mCaptcha’s dialog box contains a check box.

My initial gut reaction is to not chase this one unless the amount of money is going to make/break your business. The amount of time & mental energy required to chase things like this can almost immediately overtake the original loss. Just do a simple calculation: Your hourly consulting rate X total hours spent dealing with this bullshit = The additional cost this asshole customer has incurred so far.

My red line for a 1-10mm USD business would be 25-50k USD. I would seek recovery at that threshold, and only if I had skin in the game (aka some substantial marginal cost per customer). If I got screwed out of "here's my enterprise pricing menu and here's some demo API access to the sandbox DB instance", I would not be so upset. However, if I got screwed out of hundreds of hours of deep consulting work, I would almost certainly lawyer up.

Because there is no currently approved treatment for postpartum depression, what they’re comparing here is the danger of untreated PPD against the danger of either discontinuing breastfeeding or having the newborn ingest a small amount of this medication. Untreated PPD is no joke. Not only does the mother’s suffering matter in itself, it has serious documented effects on the baby.

And there is nothing wrong or negligent about “solving this with a pill.” It needs solving. It is a serious issue.

You've failed to demonstrate that this is authoritarian. And I haven't criticized you for criticizing the FDA. I've criticized you for defending your position with misinformation, and for deploying marginalized people as a smokescreen.

If your best rebuttal is to put words in my mouth and frame my criticism as censorious, it's time to reevaluate. It's a form of motte-and-bailey argument, you've abandoned your position that no breakthroughs have been made in the treatment of HIV in order to defend something more vague and less falsifiable ("the FDA is authoritarian"). You can choose to either consider whether your position was flawed (my recommendation in this case) or to discard your arguments and find better ones, but if you can't defend your position, there's a problem with your argumentation.
> Native mobile apps thrive despite this magical web browser working everywhere

There’s also user behavior. Many users are conditioned to get software through the App Store. I’ve seen this be a driving factor for quite a few web native applications spinning up native dev teams and shipping native clients.

Many folks are surprised to see just how far you can push a browser app and how small the gap between web and browser has become for well built applications, including native-like things like Bluetooth, NFC, USB, etc. (see: https://youmightnotneedelectron.com/)

Have hacked with quite a few devs/companies that had a fully functioning offline capable web native application. The most requested feature they’d get? “I want to download it from the App Store.” (Usually in the form of “I can’t find your app in the App Store”)

I suspect this is why the PWA experience on mobile devices hasn’t been well paved and why some App Store policies call out “don’t just wrap a browser view in a native app” - they want to keep users coming in the front door of a marketplace where they collect a cut off the top of all transactions.
I think I can see this being a factor.
I guess that’s a continuation of what Galileo shattered hundreds of years previously with his five observations through his homemade telescope that the Catholic Church was gonna burn him for.

From memory all these bodies were supposed to be “perfect and unblemished” or some such:

- lunar surface was textured

- Venus appeared as a crescent

- Jupiter had its own moons

- Saturn had “ears” (aperture was too small to resolve rings)

- Sun had spots
Yeah, the sad fact is that people who received the fewest benefits and outside help are people more likely to reject a social safety network. What's sad is that these are the people who are most likely to benefit from this progressive change.

It's suggested that they fear that a (small) fraction of people are lazy and parasitical and will manipulate and abuse these systems. In some ways, I'm more cynical, and believe the cause is more deeply rooted: Since these people were hazed at some point in their lives (even if they're middle class, e.g. they took a job they hated beacuse gave them decent health insurance), they believe everyone should be hazed.

It's the old chestnut: "Do this shitty pointless thing, it builds character. (subtext: I was forced to do this shitty pointless thing, so why shouldn't you younger folks be too)."

I’m not an accountant, but I think the distinction is that the MoR will handle both the collection and remittance of tax for you, including filing any necessary paperwork. You get money deposited in your bank account, and you deliver product to customers, but you’re not worried about remitting taxes.

If Stripe collects the tax and sets it aside, that’s helpful, but it still means you have to figure out which jurisdictions you owe tax to, and figure out how to get the taxes delivered and reported to those jurisdictions (“remitted”), which can be a headache, to say the least.
Thanks for adding more context around this!
There is no chance that the state would cap rates, I'm not sure they even could. The real pull would be trying to expand Medicaid, which is free,creating a single payer system and raising taxes, or creating public health insurance, or some combination of both.

The public option would be the best in a vacuum, but if its truly affordable, we will still attract uninsured and under-insured people who come here when they get sick.

The M1 and M2 Apple processors might change that equation.

They might be quite a bit slower in TFLOPS than a 4070, but if they can run the model while the 4070 can't run it due to limited RAM, then they come out the winner

Agree completely, it's easy to gloss over what that coverage would look like.

But just want to point out that "low end" Medicaid plans are frequently better in many ways in states where the program is well supported as far as coverage vs middle-of-the-road employer plans. Zero out-of-pocket expenses, and in Oregon, Washington and California they cover routine dental care as well, for example.

They typically have very restricted networks however vs employer provided plans.
what they actually came up with was just as strongly against the familiarity of the community momentum already built, wasn't it?

Yes, with moderate success.
For my 8 yo, I limited the times he can log into his Windows laptop and the time spent on the computer using Microsoft parental control. iPad has a quite good limiting screen time control so I use that. But I also trained him to use a timer when he watches TV or use a focus timer to learn (and break).

For my older son, who is much more computer proficient, it was not so successful. He broke the Windows system twice, before MS could fix it so I gave up and developed a custom monitoring system instead (brought much troubles to the house, I can tell you). I also limited our household router to allow connecting to 1.1.1.3 DNS servers only, which should filter inappropriate websites.

But to be honest, with the level of sophistication of my older son, not much can actually be done except frank conversation and clear rules.

I also ponder building a total monitoring platform, using deep packet inspection and AI to help automatically classify connections and resources. But I wonder if it’s worth the effort at all.

What are the benefits of hub motors?
Some of the main benefits of hub motors are:

• Simplicity - They have fewer moving parts, resulting in lower maintenance requirements.
• Weight distribution - The motor weight is located at the wheel, improving handling.
• Light weight - Hub motors tend to weigh less than traditional engines.
• Quiet operation - There are no loud engine noises.
• Efficiency - Electric motors are more efficient than internal combustion engines.
• Lower emissions - Hub motors produce zero tailpipe emissions.

What are some drawbacks of hub motors?
Some drawbacks of hub motors include:

• Higher upfront cost - Electric hub motors tend to cost more than gas engines initially.
• Limited range - The range of hub motor vehicles is often shorter than gas counterparts.
• Recharging requirements - They require recharging compared to refueling a gas tank.
• Reduced power - The power output of hub motors can be lower than gasoline engines.
• Specialized maintenance - Repairs may require expertise in electric motor technology.

SitesFS | Sole Software Engineer | B2B SaaS | Private Company | Remote / Worldwide | Local Avg + 20% for outside the US

About: I am a (semi) non-technical operator acquiring a B2B SaaS business that has been owner operated/developed for the last 20 years. The platform helps small businesses in a niche industry run their day to day operations.

Culture: If you miss the days when you could code by yourself in some corner of the house, go down rabbit holes learning about new things, obsessing over small details, chatting with like minded people and having fantastic flexibility... Well then you’re the right fit!

You: Thrive as a sole developer (& will look to build your team as we scale).. You are someone who has an owner mindset, is collaborative, has curiosity for technology, and loves building delightful software.

Stack: Currently JScript / ECMAScript / JavaScript, ActiveX COM, SQL on DB side and little C#. We will look to refactor this code overtime.

Bottomline, I am passionate about building software that people love to use. I’m looking for someone who shares the same mindset. I’m not in the business of running a feature factory in order to drive revenue. Our platform helps real small businesses operate on a daily basis. We’re not revolutionizing the world, but we still care immensely about what we develop and the people that use our products. If you think you would make a good fit, shoot an email (in profile) and we can set up some time to discuss.

I don't like anything implicit in programming languages. Being explicit does not make code unreadable. Being implicit does make code hard to truly understand and requires being a language expert. What's worse, implicit code often pretends to be simple, while in reality it's not.
> It is simply unwarranted ad-hominem

When the authors/executives of a private research company are making fraudulent affiliation claims to established corporations and research universities it's actually very warranted to be dismissive of their claims in the absence of supportive evidence. Especially when there is growing evidence suggestive of failure.

This is not the behavior of ethical scientists and suggests malice.

Faking affiliation and refusing to provide supportive evidence both smell like a fundraising scam (i.e. running out of money and need to raise more to continue research seems like the simplest explanation for this behavior).

Externalizing the social costs of AI to the common people and creators while extracting most of the value.

The author has no real recourse here, no control. Meanwhile tech companies have been laying off integrity staff and replaced them with ineffective AI to maintain their profit margins

It’s not that AI is causing this - it happened before, just a human scale - but we really need to force these companies to manage the consequences of the at scale business / monopolies they have been allowed to operate or we end up in an entirely dystopian situation where ‘nothing can be done’.
+1 for the SensorWatch. I've been using it for a few months now and it's been flawless. I prioritize battery life above all else, and only recently has the battery been dropping in voltage. Opening up the watch to do any SW changes is a bit of a pain, so if you constantly want to make changes it could get annoying.

My specific objection to raised taxes is the relatively low assurance that that will go to worthwhile causes.

Fix roads, improve access to mental health, etc., etc.? Sure. Raise my taxes (I moved to the US from a country where I was taxed at a higher rate than now.

> Why should everyone else on earth have to suffer crappier performance by default because of the business/software practices of a select few?

The author states in the article that they believe this may be exploitable from javascript in a browser. Just to hammer the point home, any web page could steal anything in memory on your computer. Spectre was also browser-exploitable, and was mitigated there partly by making access to high precision timers privileged. This is very much not a problem that only impacts cloud providers.

You are delusional and terribly out of your depth if you think even a sizable minority has any interest in getting rid of hypertext and the web. Networked native apps are useless without the web architecture as the glue to integrate between them. It is highly likely that URIs, HTTP and hyperlinks will still be a foundational elements of our technology world in a hundred years.

Not exactly. Most Docker containers rely on distro package managers. You're usually running apt or apk inside your Dockerfile. And the container system rootfs needs to be laid out. It's a non-trivial amount of work to do that and keep it up to date.

I am a fan of building a traditional native package in a multi-step Docker build, and the final container artifact can be a simple `RUN deb -i my-pkg.deb`

I find that targeting traditional system packages has benefits. 1) it's not really that hard, and 2) it forces you to lay things out consitently, or, at the very least, the distros conventions are helpful.
It's been over 10 years, and not interesting, but because you asked: it was a political group, and I was replying to a group member who was talking about how love is all you need. I tried to make the point that love may be an essential ingredient, but is not all you need, certainly not for political change (I think I used some Chomsky quotes to that effect...), and that group member essentially straw manned that into advocating hate (which I really wasn't). Knowing how I was back then, I probably was being a Dwight Schrute about it, as in "bzzzt, false, love is NOT all you need, because A, B and C".

So we were both irritated and talked back back and forth, ceding no ground, and suddenly an admin banned me without warning. It was the suddenness more than anything that got to me; I felt misrepresented and censored, and I just wanted to be able to re-read it all to gain closure, if you will. If I could find the file today I would probably cringe at what I wrote, or at least how I wrote it, but back then I nodded and thought "yup, I'm correct", haha.
