Irvine decided to put a 'strip mall' next to every major development so almost any house in irvine is a 10 minute walk from a grocery store and a handful of fast casual restaurants.

They've also created a very popular 'urban-esque' area by the Irvine Spectrum, where numerous automotive HQs are, Amazon has a large presence, all within walking distance of a huge number of mid rise apartments.

>I fail to see why we would hail Irvine as a great city

It's one of the most popular places right now to move to. It may not be your preference, but it seems it's popular enough to have prices go through the roof.
That's not really helpful. Take it out of standby mode, unplug it, and try starting it with remotes.
This - the overconsumption of supplements can lead to problems. The problem isn't so much with a daily multivitamin as it is with megadoses of a bunch of different vitamins. I know it's only anecdotal, but I had a cousin that really got into one of those vitamin selling pyramid schemes. She got to the point she was taking dozens of different supplements every day and was one of the top sellers. She got cancer and died while only in her 30's. This has been decades ago and I don't remember which cancer she had, but I do remember friends and family wondering if taking all those supplements was a factor? Subsequent research suggests perhaps so. Like I said, she was mega dosing - she wasn't just taking a daily multivitamin.

There's a topo layer in Organic! Close lines means (potentially) lots of exposure. That's not a silver bullet, though, as sometimes the topo shows nothing special, but when you get there you can have some exposure. For the cliffs in my area, there's also different shading and a line with triangles poking out in the direction of the fall line. So as long as you're hiking in places that are somewhat popular, you will have this extra info to rely on.

Doing true exposure on a per-segment basis would mean a new key I think, not to mention how much additional data this would require for the maps. If you're worried about the terrain to the point of needing highly detailed topo maps, it's probably better to get one of the many such maps in AllTrails (though the app is rather clunky)

As with all things outdoors, technology will only ever get you so far. Situational awareness and emergency preparedness are skills you should have if you're going somewhere you've never been before. Always prepare for more than you expect, and if you're not sure that you're prepared once you get to somewhere sketchy, it's always best to turn back.

The thing is that almost everyone believed him until it became known that many times he either:

1. didn't know what he was talking about

2. was over-optimistic about timelines to the point that there would be very little difference if it were a lie

3. objectively lied on purpose in order to further self interests

4. exaggerated or over-promised more than could be attributed to salesmanship

5. flip-flopped and refused to acknowledge the change in stance

6. stated things entirely to be vindictive, and let the truth of the statements be irrelevant

The problem isn't that people 'never believe', the problem is 'whatever is said should be suspect to the point that if it is actually true then that is entirely a side-effect of the statement and not the point of it'.
Yeah, they were telling obvious lies about Afghanistan, and that was a war that would have had plenty of support anyway. They’re not exactly subtle about this kind of thing—though it works regardless, so I guess they don’t need to be.
> Extremist views like transgender men being allowed to compete in women's sports?

personally I didn't care one way or another about transgender issues but I absolutely hate how they've managed to completely hijack liberal politics and create such a strong backlash with some of their tomfoolery that now lgb members are seeing attempts to rollback their own progress in being accepted. I have no doubt russia and china's crackdown on the lgb community is a dogwhistle backlash based on reactions to the behavior we've been seeing in the US with regards to gender equality.

I miss when liberal meant everyone had a right to exist (including transgenders) and promoting policies that create equitable opportunities and infrastructure. We should be talking about how to build more high speed rail, deconstructing the private prison complex, immigration reform and improving education. instead its devolved to become nothing but pride propaganda being shoved in our faces 24/7. I'm not even sure its the trans community behind this or some other entity propping up a small minority into goading us into division with astroturfed antagonism.

Is it still there? I knew they did previously, but last year there were reports it was possibly closing as part of Musk's layoffs.

Looking online I can't find any recent information.

Basically, given the way Musk has been ignoring other regulations and/or not paying for things, I'm wondering if he even cares about GDPR. And if he doesn't care and shuts down any legal European presence, then does it matter?

(Of course if the Ireland office is still active and receiving lots of European advertiser revenue, then of course the GDPR has teeth.)

I genuinely want to know what lead Google to not support Maps offline properly.

Money. Same reason they won't show you your location on a map unless you turn on location tracking, even though there's a perfectly good GPS in the phone.

You know how designers like to say that users are always right? Well, not that guy.

I have had similar conversations with leads from Google News & Scholar. My impression is that when those people go to a conference or whatever they're they're to promote the company's outlook, not to listen. In the case of the news guy he when I pointed out some logical flaws in his argument (about why they didn't offer a way of sorting by date), he just switched to nodding while staring off into space and refusing to make eye contact, so he could give the appearance of listening without engaging further.
They suggest modifying the kernel commandline to disable the root fallback. Does secure boot include a hash of grub boot parameters? Couldn't the attacker just change the command line back (or to an even easier to exploit config?)
It's not any different, but in my opinion both are not good.

Someone should teach you how logarithms work before giving you a log table. Someone at some point should show you a trigonometric circle before telling you to press the cos button in the calculator to calculate a cosine.

That said, some"one" could be a GPT chatbot. The problem is that you might not know the right question to ask.

Well, it's sorta possible. Just not with the TPM, and not in general purpose computing applications.

Games consoles are super locked down, to prevent piracy, and some modern consoles have gone years without a successful hack, despite being in the physical possession of the attacker. The iphone's activation lock is extremely hard to bypass, and even cops and border guards struggle to extract users' data.

Simply buy your PC from your operating system vendor directly, and forego options like being able to replace components and being able to install your own software, allowing the memory and PCI bus to be encrypted. Add some cloud backup features so the device can wipe itself at the drop of a hat without losing your data. After that, just have your OS vendor produce perfect code with no exploits, and you're secure!

It's always weird when big, established names/brands attempt to rebrand.

Like "the artists formerly known as" Prince, Kanye, Snoop Dogg, etc. There's basically no getting away from the old branding because it has to be included with the new branding so one knows what we're even talking about.

As far as rebrands go, X just seems dumb. The more an article/news segment talk about X, it feels like an unfilled mad libs made it to air. Or it feels like they're talking about something general, like when X Company does Y thing.

I'll do you one better.

The US navy devised a formula based on height age and your neck and waist circumference and was 2-4% accurate for body fat calculation (it's not good for tracking relative changes tho).

You can make generally fairly accurate assumptions about body fat percentage from a few key indices when it comes to general population.

The electrical impedance issue becomes more problematic when you have a higher muscle mass vs fat mass as the scale has a much harder time figuring that out (which is why some of the scales have an "athlete" mode on them).

Most of the good scales also have a handheld impedance sensor on them to track upper and lower body impedance for a more accurate measurement tho.
Bill forward blocks some peripheral vision and sometimes get in my way.

Bill backwards hides my lack of a haircut, keeps my bald spot from getting sunburned, stays completely out of vision, keeps swear from dropping into my eyes, and with bill down along the back of my neck doesn’t take up any additional space.

Then when I need to block the sun glare I have the heat available on my head and can just spin it around.

I'd love to believe that, but I feel like the article doesn't justify it. The studios don't care how bad they look; people aren't going to unsubscribe just because the studios are obnoxious. They may tell pollsters they don't like it, but the studios only care whether they pay up.

The closest the article comes to justification is that the strikers have shown solidarity, and supporting the rejection of lowball offers. Now the entire thing is a game of chicken. Everybody is hemorrhaging money.

If I had to guess, I'd point out that the actors at least are used to long periods of unemployment (and the rich ones aren't starving). The writers are more middle-class, and perhaps that hurts more, but with the actors on board they've got no reason to give in to a weak offering (since they wouldn't get back to work anyway).

Still... the studios may well be content to cut off their noses to spite their faces. They're playing the long game and they think that within a decade they'll be able to fire everybody... except themselves, of course.

That backfired on them when all the Twitter employees they fired sued them in individual lawsuits, so now they have to do the same discovery process and everything else over and over for each case. Lol. That only backfired because enough individuals that had the means to bring a full suit at the same time though. Unlikely to happen normally.

For large transactions, consumer trustworthiness is why credit agencies were invented.

For smaller transactions where it doesn't make sense to run a credit check, there are other systems in place that would still need to be in place in some form even if all the transactions were recorded on a blockchain.

Like chargebacks as you mention. They're a consumer protection process that some unethical consumers abuse. The chargeback process can be initiated for stated reasons that are not related to how the transaction was recorded or stored.

Let's say the shady buyer can't dispute the monetary part of a transaction because it's on a black chain. They can still request a chargeback because they claim the product or service is not as expected.

The process and evidence to fight that would look like how it currently does. The blockchain doesn't solve the problem.

For the parts it can help with, those are already handled with well established processes. Transactions are stored and kept. Receipts are retained. The blockchain would add overhead without much real world gain.

Chemotherapy is deadly. The idea is to administer enough to kill the cancer but not kill the patient. It's literally a well-regulated and well-monitored poison.

Don't get the wrong idea - chemotherapies are among the best therapies we have for treating cancer. I'm not anti-Western medicine or anti-chemotherapy or anything like that, it's just we have to recognize the nature of the beast and what it is exactly that we're doing when administering it.

> there's something about pen-and-paper writing that's more effective for thought-lubrication

In my personal experience, a helpful feature of pen and paper is that it is less effective than keyboards, it takes me more time and focus to write things down. Maybe this gives the rest of my brain more time to catch up and understand the things that I am writing.

Written text is also less efficient when it comes to searching. This forces me to organize my thoughts better because I know I won't be able to CTRL+F random keywords later.
I've learned that recognition and feeling connected to others is really important for me as a developer, too. If I go too long without sharing my work with someone or getting feedback from a user, I can start to feel invisible, or even useless, and it's very demotivating.

Arranging demos/informal tests with users frequently (ideally once every week or two, or even more frequently if I have a lot of work to show and test) to solicit feedback from users and make my work's purpose more immediate to me has been hugely helpful. (Every single time I put a user in front of something I've made, it always helps me identify new UX and documentation bugs, too.)

I hope you can make arrangements to feel more connected to others in your work and acknowledged for your effort, up to and including finding a different job! It makes such a huge difference in life and it's really worth it.
You guys can try https://bulma.io/ as a middle-ground. It provides some fundamentals styles that aren't married to JavaScript, so there are never any conflicts with any SPA version.

None of those are out of place.

aquatic animals (otters, beavers, could go on) have plenty of hair. Our lack of hair is function of avoiding parasites using our brain to protect our skin instead of fur armor.

All mammals have fat so I'm not going to get into that one.

All mamals have a swimming reflex, except even though most of them are not aquatic, their reflex actually works. humans that dont spend a long time to learn how to swim ... drown.

but there are features that are very much against us being aquatic: shellfish and fish allergies.
Ublock origin is the way to go for Adblock extensions. Also, NextDNS is way more flexible than pihole since you don’t need to host anything. AdGuard DNS provides the same service. Both are priced at $20/year and its money well spent IMO. NextDNS provides 300K queries per montb for free. With cache, that should last one person for one month.
Isn't the more common problem that the extension contains malware from Google/FB? (This is definitely the case for phone apps.)

The US has 46 million people living in rural areas with little light pollution. Europe is more densely populated than the US and urban light pollution is probably the only type of pollution that is significantly worse here than in the US.

There are of course also hundreds of millions of people in the developing world living in rural areas but they likely have other life priorities than noticing lights in the sky.

My point is that whatever it is it is probably a global phenomenon but only Americans are both geographically and culturally inclined (Hollywood) to notice and report it.
