Not really a problem if you're the developer; just offer an absolute refund guarantee.

My mother likes to tell the story of an American company that used to sell pills to determine the sex of your baby. You'd buy (and take) a girl pill if you wanted a girl and a boy pill if you wanted a boy.

If your baby came out the wrong sex, they'd give you a refund.

This particular one is a self-inflicted problem in most major US metro areas, by way of medium density housing being explicitly or implicitly banned for decades.
That's definitely the realm of "actual electrical engineer". There's a lot you can learn to get most of the way there without the math, but to actually understand why you've got e.g. an impedance matching network on your antenna trace requires some mathematical gymnastics that's easiest to get in school. That can feel pretty frustrating, but on the other hand a lot of the hardware at work there can be had off-the-shelf as modules, so you don't have to do any RF black magic. Just standard build-quality questions.
There is no flop, it's flops even in the singular because it's an acronym.

I partially agree; they did make a big splash with all of those benefits, but also Google excludes 54% of their workforce (TVCs) from these benefits. Its a bit of a stretch to say tech workers owe Google for these benefits at other companies. To me, they're a shrewd US corporation (not that there is anything particularly wrong with that) where I don't see a lot of "goodness".

"Google was blah blah blah..."

That's nice dear.

Google was cool but isn't now and haven't been any kind of cool for well over a decade. I recall dumping Altavista for Google and now I note I have recently dumped Chrome for Firefox and G for DDG.

It doesn't really matter: Google and co now has a hold over us proles that Big Brother could only dream of. In 1984, you had a surveillance screen installed. Nowadays, you buy the bloody things yourself (Smart TVs, home IoT cams etc). Also you carry them on your person - smart phones.

C'est la vie et la guerre. (soz to Francophones)
The crazy part is this is how it used to work.

One of the older models for a physician went like this:

- you opened a practice

- you charged a "subscription" to be a part of your practice

- people could come as much as they wanted

What's crazy to me is that MORE doctors don't do this since I'm 100% sure there is a demand for a service like this.

Good. Let them.
Of course the amortized cost is important. If people eat a lot of steak and one steak is ten years of peaches, we should focus on the steak!
> It's only "more secure" in the sense that unauthorized access to it counts as wiretapping, whereas the feds carved a loophole allowing them to read private emails without going afoul our anti-wiretapping laws.

How is that different from techbros trying to claim a loophole for their illegal business, because it's on the internet/through an app/'is a gig job'/on a blockchain?

When legislature hasn't kept up with technology, the only way to fight that behaviour is through lawsuits. Lawsuits have made some headway in dealing with both private, and government malfeasance, here.
I understand how you feel. It can be frustrating.

Contrary to popular belief Amazon actually does put energy into making sure products are responsibly sourced. Products are de-listed if they’re found to come from unethical sources.

To take that even further take a look at Climate Pledge Friendly. Those are products with (at least one) third party certification. These certifications don’t just further climate goals. Social responsibility is also considered. Including worker conditions and product durability. You can filter search results by this attribute. Admittedly it can be hard to filter for specific certifications.

it also exploded due to the growling size of such companies and dominance relative to overall US economy, especially post-2008 in which there was a void filled by the collapse of the housing, auto, brick and mortar retail, and financial sectors (except for Walmart, biotech, payment processing, and information tech, everything else weas hurt badly). such companies play a much bigger absolute and relative role, whether it's shopping, cloud and data infrastructure, advertising, AI, etc.. Companies need to pay top dollar for top talent to get products to market before an equally-sized trillion-dollar competitor does. Due to network effects, speed is of upmost importance.
It has little, if anything, to do with the water. Ice made in a freezer is cloudy because of air bubbles. There are techniques for making clear ice using directional freezing. Here's one way: https://altonbrown.com/recipes/cocktail-ice-cubes/

The last time I used a floppy disk was in 2006, for a final project for college. I actually shaved a few lines out of my AutoCAD file to get down to the critical 1.44 MB file size. The professor gave me a long side-eye as I handed it in.

I don't think it would, or should, but this isn't what's going on here. The idea isn't to hire disabled people over more qualified candidates. The idea is to hire disabled people whose disabilities actually make them more valuable for the role, and that's not discrimination based on disability status. It's more like the NBA hiring based on height.
Using Google in 1998 was magic. Because the other options like Altavista and Yahoo were so bloated and slow. And the results much better.
No, being able to see through it has nothing to do with water purity (unless your water is so muddy that it's not clear even as a liquid), it's to do with the formation of the ice and the incorporation of air bubbles. You can make clear ice pretty easily with molds.

Oh, absolutely. 100%. At the end of the day Zeihan is just a single analyst. He isn't even arguably news.

Although, OP wasn't asking for a singular source of news. He just wanted a news source people read every day, and random is better. And if you are looking for one more source of news to add into a diet, I don't think it's a bad pick.
IBM wasn't Silicon Valley. IBM was IBM, and then there was Silicon Valley.

IBM is cut from a very different cloth than Silicon Valley companies that were actually founded and ran in SV in the 80s / 90s. I wouldn't use them as the measuring stick.

Microsoft was pretty well known to pay really well too (granted out of Seattle / Redmond, but they grafted the SV culture really well). They also had perks and bonuses and big stock grants. Netscape, Yahoo! etc. They all had some variation of this going on.
I think any device that is end of life should have its firmware be open source, with fines for non compliance.
In this case we have two ad supported search engines that deliver a very similar experience. As you note the differentiation is not great and thus, defaults matter. So in this case they are no longer competing on product quality, but on distribution. A high barrier to entry ($20B is high) but at <10% of Google's revenue it's affordable to them but basically no one else.

There is also brand competition and Google has done a fantastic job building very strong brand preference. Honestly no one has even tried to build an alternative search brand for over a decade in any meaningful way (DDG and Bing combined is the closest we could probably come and that's like Fresca competing with Coke).

Google Chrome has ~63% market share and that's not up for auction. They pay for ~23% or so at the $20B discussed thus no one is going to be able to out-distribute Google any time soon.

Furthermore no one, including Microsoft, is going to risk $20B on overcoming Google's brand preference. It would take years and probably $100B or more to play this game for an uncertain outcome. Better to invest in OpenAI than take that bet.

Credit to Google; they have built a very strong business with a strong moat. But no, real competition is not a "click away."
Do you know how the time to do the image embedding takes? In SAM, most of the time is spent generating a very expensive embedding (prohibitive for real-time object detection). From the timing on your page it looks like yours is also similarly slow, but I'm curious how it compares to the pytorch Meta implementation.

> If what you learn by probing it allows you to breach the security of other people using the same service, then that is threatening

What is threatening is that the company that sells baby monitors and keeps video recordings of your family members being naked has zero accountability for their security and almost no chance of being caught if they misuse it.
It would help if you recognized that it's a philosophical concept, not a legal one. Maybe you've noticed that lawyers and other people often use the same words with sharply different (and often counter-intuitive) meanings. Thus, legal requirements for what constitutes a contract do not apply. Neither do legal standards about specificity, enforcement, etc. You could argue that it's a bad term, but to argue that the thing itself is deficient because it doesn't meet legal standards is a bit sophomoric.

I didn't read thoroughly enough. I have not tried that one yet. It should work as many people use SSH from the UserLAnd app, which this is similar to. If you try it out before we do, remember that android blocks apps from using the first 1k ports, so you have to run ssh on port 2022 or something like that, instead of the normal port 22.

I will make a point of getting that working if it doesn't.
Thanks for the neat insight!
The trick about gifts for most women seems to be that they are more valued the less inherent uses they have. Roses and diamonds are good gifts. A vacuum cleaner or an alarm clock: not so much.
I think making an estimate for something that works is doable. Making an estimate for what the boss asked for, is NP Hard.
Lab diamonds are routinely grown in the shape of giant wafers. (And then smaller parts are cut out of the wafers.) This shouldn't be that hard to get if you really want it.

(I have a friend who used to have a job drawing cut plans for diamond wafers at Kyocera Unimerco.)
Life is so busy these days but I like to keep tabs on the biggest headlines. I've been subscribed to 1440 for maybe a year and love it. I basically can just skim the world events while brushing my teeth in the morning, and there are links if I feel like reading more. It's a nice format that leaves no guilt if I miss it for the day. I'm also quite happy with its lack of bias: there are a couple of extremely subtle hints of bias but generally it's kept as "facts-only" as possible.

It's more 'define the interval'. For Japan and Greece that's more a stagnation - population didn't grow or fell much in last 30 years. On a interval of 2-3 generation (20-60 years) most of countries show growth, not decline in population. Many times predicted population decline in Germany turns to be slow growth during last 30 years.

People can very easily understand but still not care. Caring about something is a zero sum competition for headspace. Throw in a newborn baby, a car wreck, a death in the family, and losing your passport, and see how much you care about your smart light bulb being secure.

Adobe had sky high growth back in the 80s. It was the first company out of SV that achieved profitability in less than a year (thanks to a sweetheart deal with Steve Jobs / Apple), however it did really well through the decade. Inflation adjusted, I think it'd hit similar numbers, though I think Google is still bigger by some margin.

Adobe today maybe not so much, but at one point they were a powerhouse
MDF bubbles when it gets damp, and completely crumbles away when it gets wet. The price difference between plywood and MDF is not significant; $45 -> $60 in my market, and OSB is even cheaper at $30 (all prices, 4'x8', 1/2" sheets)

Why MDF is used, I'll never understand.
This is a true but it's a trick. Sqft in real estate isn't purely the dimensions of the home. A 1300sqft home can become a 2600sqft by virtue of hanging some drywall in the basement. Houses aren't really twice the size they were just sold with unfinished basements new, the occupants later finished the basement (mostly just drywall and a little hvac work) and then it was sold again at its "larger" size.
You obviously haven’t seen the video of a diamond being hit by a hammer against a steel anvil…and it was fine, even putting a dent into the anvil. You have to cleave it in just the right spot to split it - blunt force isn’t going to do it.
Bed bugs can go for ages without feeding; the only real way to kill them en masse is extreme heat—e.g. the dryer. There are services that come and seal your house up and then essentially pump 125F heat into it, to kill the bedbugs (bugs @ 120F, eggs @ 125F). If suppose if your shed gets to ~125F in the summer, should be good. Point being: heat > time-since-last-meal for bedbugs. (unfortunately I am speaking from experience)

Edit/addendum: The bed-bug-sniffing-dog, while a very good boy, is a total scam.
I'm not jealous (we've got a great work/life balance and a good mission), and I've heard of those compensation levels before, but something about the way you said "merely 400k" made me realize that those single salaries are more than my entire team(5 sysadmins and a manager)'s compensation.
Well, I can't control the past. My options are the present, and the future, and the latter depends on the former.

that's not what i meant. if the abuse is so bad that their children will have to be taken away (even if only temporarily), then obviously if they have children again, and the abuse continues, those children will also be taken away. which means in practical terms, they can't really have children.

what i did mean was: if whatever failures these parents have is mild enough that they are allowed to keep their children, because noone is perfect and the children are never in any danger then why should they not be allowed to adopt as well?

in short, why should adoptive parents have to submit to higher standards?

but, as someone else stated, there are not enough children up for adoption in the US anyways, so that argument becomes moot, because obviously you'll pick the most suitable parents first.

and you do have a point. after rereading what i said: "most people that you would not want to allow to adopt can go and have their own children anyways", this is really a claim that needs further scrutiny. it was supposed to imply that the tests are to harsh, but that is based only on anecdotal evidence so i am not really prepared to defend it. in hindsight, your reading of it makes sense too, so you are right to question it. thank you.

Having done similar (not identical) things at that age, a lot of it is quite literally for the LOLs, and more than a bit is for community identity.

Fame: Non-existent, since you don't tell people.

Money: Non-existent, you don't get paid.

In retrospect, I think a major drivers for teenagers for a lot of activities is a sense of identity. You feel like one of the role models in [name your favorite hacker movie]. It's the same reason why punks wore spikes and mohawks, goths wore black, and people might pick a genre of music (even if privately). I'd guess a lot of more negative things, like vandalism, are similar too.

You become part of a community too.

And ultimately, you contribute to it. As much as it might be illegal, cracking software helps other kids who can't afford that software. Few real engineers will use a hacked copy of AutoCAD, and literally everyone I know began to pay for music once they could afford it. On the other end of the bell curve are kids who can't afford those. Providing them with access is a community service. And it's going up against The Man. It's illegal, but by the code of ethics we followed at the time, it was very ethical.

> I never had good luck with floppies lasting any length of time at all.

I worked in a personnel office in the Army for a bit in the mid-90s, and they had a Windows machine with a bunch of documents and spreadsheets on the hard drive. The Staff Sergeant who ran the office was paranoid about losing everything in a hard drive failure, so the first thing he made me do was move all of them off to floppy disks. (I remember he called A: "the alpha drive" if that gives you any hint on his level of tech savviness.) Maybe the disks were old. Maybe it was the humidity. At any rate, it was only a couple of weeks before half that stuff was unreadable.

At the same time, I remember one time I crumpled up one of those 5.25 inch floppies in my TRS-80 programming class in high school, then I realized there was something I wanted off of it and flattened it back out - and it worked!
Because it’s something women show off precisely as a signal of how much it cost. It has only so much to do with its aesthetic beauty.
Where are you saying the difference would exist? I haven't seen local network tests be worse than localhost (usually it's better since the client uses a lot of CPU itself). Why would Internet latency matter? TCP ACKs should be done by the loadbalancing appliance, so they'll be low-latency for the application. TLS handshakes should also be offloaded to the appliance.

From what I've measured, code I've written performs around the same in production as it ran locally given similar hardware. If you're deploying to a VM with 3000 IOPS and 1/2 a CPU core, obviously it's going to run like garbage. If you wouldn't run your business on a raspberry pi 3, you probably shouldn't be running it on an AWS xlarge instance either.
I love this point. The current IoT free for all is not that productive, good for consumers, national security, or the environment. I would love to buy a mechanically well designed washing machine from 25 years over the smart crap that's out today.

I think you misunderstood my depiction as saying all ADHD people are universally incompetent or dangerous. I'm saying that forcing untreated, unaddressed, undiagnosed ADHD people in a metalshop and getting them to work with dangerous machinery instead of treatment is uniquely dangerous given how we know ADHD functions.

I also am shocked that you have apparently been in company of people with ADHD and you've never considered asking them how they experience their disorder. I mean, at minimum, it's important to ask how to accommodate them or if they'd like you to be considerate of anything in particular with respect to their disability. Can you explain how do you handle people who are in your circle and clearly have different positions than you do-- do you never ask them questions?
Are not all of these caused by some form of gatekeeping or artificial restriction? Of course some of that is benign and intentional, such as only letting people practice medicine after they've been thoroughly trained and certified, but are we perhaps restricting access to the things you list too much?
Interesting that your salesperson used the same line as DeBeers does at the end of the article about lab diamonds being too cheap. It must be a sales talking point that comes from on top.

It's seems crazy that Debeers is actually trying to drive lab prices down to make them seem too cheap for bridal use. Their strategy is to try to retain the higher-end luxury market while giving up the more mainstream market where they can't compete.
I was going to reply to the parent and say Canada but you beat me to it.

Canada's housing bubble (?) existed since at least the early 2000s when I was in grad school. Everyone expected the bubble to pop. When condo prices continued to be strong during covid (who the heck would buy condos), I just had to admit I was wrong. This is not a bubble but we did not see the true factors driving things. Immigration is the biggest one. People do indeed bring suitcases of cash from all over the world (including Ukraine). After covid, we had a torrent of international students enter, and these folks are bolstering rents (real-estate investment is probably the most profitable activity in Canada).
I built yet another similar platform with the goal to keep accounts fully isolated, while it started with preview environments only, we started handling some prod deployments too.

There are nice perks on this approach but the complexity (for us) is non-negligible.
