Aren't diamonds quite brittle? I feel hitting banging the diamond pan against the burner slightly too hard will cause it to shatter. Or using a metal spatula too roughly.
Honestly, if this is truly the case, LastPass is partially to blame here.

Sure, there's nothing in the TOS contractually obligating them to do this - but starting a low level awareness campaign to warn people with passwords that haven't changed in years about this risk seems like an easy thing to do that a (in keeping with the theme) "security minded" company should be enthusiastic about doing.

You can't nanny everyone, but surely if you're paying for a password manager you'd appreciate these kinds of notices.

That’s what the evidence shows, yeah. Pay transparency benefits employers at the cost of high performers because they can credibly commit to not paying more.

> Equilibrium effects of pay transparency in a simple labor market

> Public discourse on pay transparency has not focused on equilibrium effects: how greater transparency impacts hiring and bargaining. To study these effects, we combine a dynamic wage-bargaining model with data from online markets for low-skill, temporary jobs that differ in their level of transparency. Wages are more equal, but lower under transparency. Transparency increases hiring and employer profits, rising 27% in an online field experiment. A key intuition is high transparency commits employers to negotiating aggressively, because a highly paid worker's salary affects negotiations with other workers. We discuss implications for the gender wage gap and employers' endogenous transparency choices.

> Equilibrium effects of pay transparency

> The discourse around pay transparency has focused on partial equilibrium effects: how workers rectify pay inequities through informed renegotiation. We investigate how employers respond in equilibrium. We study a model of bargaining under two‐sided incomplete information. Our model predicts that transparency reduces the individual bargaining power of workers, leading to lower average wages. A key insight is that employers credibly refuse to pay high wages to any one worker to avoid costly renegotiations with others. When workers have low individual bargaining power, pay transparency has a muted effect. We test our model with an event‐study analysis of U.S. state‐level laws protecting the right of private sector workers to communicate salary information with their coworkers. Consistent with our theoretical predictions, transparency laws empirically lead wages to decline by approximately 2%, and wage declines are smallest in magnitude when workers have low individual bargaining power.

Fair point but deep Brooklyn is still NY, and for that matter Brooklyn has sparked curiosity in Europe a lot in the last decade. There's a ton of European tourists. And deep Brooklyn has some things to see. Prospect Park, BK Museum, and some old school ethnic enclaves that pop up in Time Out type guides.
People are opposed to being valued the same way that mediocre people are. Like, I don’t talk about money until the interview process is over. That way I have the leverage (concrete examples of performance) that I need to negotiate fairly.

Employers now can just race to the bottom with accurate info on their competition.

You’ve played yourself.
I know a guy with CP, who is quite rich. The thing about CP, is that it usually only affects the body (sometimes, with deadly results), but the mind is often quite sharp.

This guy was (and still is) a serial entrepreneur. Really sharp. I would not be surprised to find out that he has used his visible handicap to lull people into thinking he was easy meat.

I can see how companies paying their current staff a lower salary would be hesitant to post the new job at a higher salary range. There would be a strong temptation to post at a lower range, despite that not attracting the best new talent, to avoid the demands of pay raises from the existing staff.
In the phone ecosystem, you have to choose the OS you want, and then buy a phone that is compatible with that OS.

If you buy a random phone and then try to find a compatible OS, your options will be very limited, or null.

GrapheneOS is, in my opinion, the most mature, serious, and reliable phone operating system, so I bought myself a Google Pixel specifically so that I could install GrapheneOS on it.
It has everything to do with wealth. Wealth is the basis of our economic systems.

If you're using a reasonably recent Firefox, it may use separate renderer processes, in which case you'll need to find the PID corresponding to the renderer process that was responsible for that website (and hope it hasn't died in the meantime).
If you're making a comparison with the US, there is the severe flaw that not everyone in the US has a high salary either, which means they're extra doubly screwed, and then all the high-salaried people still have to live in a country riddled with the social problems that causes. Then they go on the internet and complain about homeless people in San Francisco.
Steam on Mac OS takes a very long time to start up and doesn’t respect the windowing system.

Jersey City banned AirBnB many years ago already. No rentals allowed <28 days.

The AGPL says "including scripts to control those activities" but if I understand what you are saying properly it means that the text of the AGPL is overreaching and some parts of it wouldn't be applicable?

NYC is a place where enforcement is connected to who's in power and what the issue of the day is. The issue of the day today is the astronomical rent increases since the pandemic ended. Blame is everywhere.

> the "I hope you are in therapy" stated expectation went from 0 to every-other-profile almost overnight.

Wait, what? Could you expand on this? I don't use these apps, so I wouldn't see this trend myself. But I hear plenty of therapy-speak elsewhere, so I'd believe it.

Is the idea that they honestly want a potential romantic partner to be undergoing therapy? Is the theory that this will make the person a better partner? Or is there some horrible idea like it'll reduce the amount of "emotional labor" they have to perform in the relationship? What's the underlying worldview?
I'm just stating an economic reality. Unless global societies are willing to pay the owners of oil reserves to keep that oil in the ground, then that oil will be pumped out of the ground. So any transition away from oil will have to include that very high price to pay them off for a very long time.
Good point. There are definitely more options in the US for all the roles than in EU just because of the scale: There are more bigger tech companies here.

Also a good point! I recently moved away from Brooklyn, but I lived there for 9 years and would heartily recommend a Brooklyn-only tourist itinerary. Thanks for the perspective.
Sounds like a good thing. Those companies will either pay their workers what they're worth, or hurt for talent.

"neurodivergent" sounds like a sexy sci-fi movie title. If you ask my previous employers they'd have a different description, like "Hard to manage. Too frequently off in the weeds. Wouldn't know a real priority if it bit him on the balls".
I think anytime you move past the lumped circuit model you can run into trouble. This includes digital circuits with fast edge rates. On the other hand a close reading of a component manufacturer's application notes and reference schematics can help a lot of people who may have only limited formal training in electrical engineering.
As much as I've enjoyed AirBnB, the housing crisis is more important - and the industry needs more regulation if it's to exist.

Mental health care is still in the dark ages and the medicine we have are mostly crappy. I just got off SSRIs - the most prescribed mental health medication.

> longtime cryptocurrency investors, and security-minded individuals

I'm not sure how "security-minded" you are if you used a centralized, network-accessible password manager service in the first place.

Actual security minded folks keep their password vault on an air gapped machine they maintain full, physical control over.

The kind of people who use centralized, networked password managers are, by definition, those who prioritize convenience over security in the first place.

Sure, using something like LastPass is better than just saving all of your passwords in your browser, or just using one password everywhere.

Citing this as evidence someone is security-minded is like saying someone is environmentally conscious because they recycle aluminum cans, despite driving a Hummer H2 and burning the rest of their trash.

Is it better than nothing? Absolutely. Does it make them an environmentalist/security-conscious person on it's own? No. Does it make up for the other shortcomings in strategy? Nowhere remotely close.

It's a half-assed baby step for people who want to LARP as being serious about their goal (environmentalism or security), without the slightest ounce of inconvenience to their otherwise completely polluting/insecure habits.

Keep driving your H2 and telling yourself you're environmentally friendly.

Keep using your PMaaS (password manager as a service) and telling yourself you care about security.

I think they just mean people will stay in New Jersey - which would be extremely plausible if NJ allowed more hotels to be built. Most of the tourist stuff in NYC is in midtown which is a 15/20 minute public transit ride from the port authority/penn station/broadway area.

I have family that stays in Stamford Connecticut whenever they want to do stuff in NYC, because they find it cheaper/easier to stay there and take the train in.

Sounds like something based on NXP Mifare Classic. You first try a dictionary attack against the fob (most readers use whatever default keys the vendor set), if that fails, you collect nonces by touching the flipper to a reader, calculate keys in the companion app on your phone, then add keys to the flipper's dictionary. The attacks are called darkside and nested.

I don't think this video is really sufficient to prove your point that "the only thing making ice cloudy is the bubbles". The directional freezing technique is essentially a filtration method - the H2O freezes first into the growing crystalline structure and all the other impurities (various minerals AND dissolved air) get "pushed down" and concentrated into the liquid water below.

As evidence that directional freezing can filter out impurities other than air, I would point out that the directional freezing process is an effective enough filtration method to filter salt out of sea water in sea ice. [1] So my assumption is that those other minerals commonly found in water (lime, calcium, fluoride, magnesium, etc) are also being filtered out in the process - and it certainly seems plausible to me that filtering those out contributes to the clarity of the resulting ice.

So my intuitive understanding, along with what I could learn with a bit of googling, is that there are a number of impurities which can make ice appear cloudy including (but not limited to) dissolved air. A number of people here seem to be adamant that it's just air bubbles, so I'd honestly like to know why they believe that to be true (e.g. sources, some clear explanation, etc)? So far the only justification I've seen is "because directional freezing works" - but as explained above I really don't see that as being a sufficient justification since it filters out a number of impurities other than air.

I think people tend to forget how much of the regulations we have in the US related to labour arose because labour fought (and often bled and died) for.

Sure we have problems like healthcare being tied to employment that are a result of some heavy-handed regulations in the WW2 era, but we also have things like a minimum wage, and overtime, workers comp..etc.

I really like Exercism! Unfortunately their exercise model is considerably more free-form where it teaches you considerably less and in much larger chunks. I think this is a great model for certain contexts, but the format I have in the repo is more similar to "rustlings" and "ziglings" where you're taught syntax and features alongside the code examples.

I don't know that their Wasm module is necessarily "broken", so I'm unsure whether my contributions would be welcome.

> Isn't new jersey right across the river from new york, with rapid transit lines going into new york?

In Chongqing, map apps will often recommend a "nearby" restaurant which actually is several hundred meters away, vertically; you'll have to descend many stair steps before arriving at that restaurant, even though it looked so close on the map. In other words, the restaurant was not actually "close", when it comes to the time and energy investment required.

In this same spirit, New Jersey is absolutely not "close" to Manhattan, even if it looks close on maps. Traffic sucks, public transportation sucks, bridges and tunnels suck.
Pro tip for the many SF Bay Area people - if you want better than Ikea, go to the Alameda Flea Market (first Sunday of the month). It is HUUUGE and there is tidy business being done there by people who buy antique furniture on the cheap and reupholster it for modern living.

I live in a Victorian and it is much nicer to have furniture that fits the place. I've bought comfy chairs, dressers, nightstands, etc, for the same price (or cheaper!) than Ikea alternatives.

I know why I wouldn't buy a condo now (it's impossible) or particular condos in particular markets, but I don't see why someone wouldn't in general, though I'd probably prefer something at ground level. As long as I agree with the conditions, a condo would be fine.

The rest, well, it's some of those factors, but it's also the whole system designed to be static and reward pensioners with property and investors. Every facet of the system is fucked, and it ain't gunna get better.

I've been running https://github.com/coder/code-server for the past few months, and I really like it.

It's basically self-hosted VS Code in a browser. I can switch from my desktop to my laptop, even to my phone, and pick up right where I left off with uncommitted changes, long running processes, etc. Additionally, I get the full resources of my server and don't have to worry about it running down my battery or causing the fans to spin up on my laptop.
There were Intel phones at 1 point. Wouldn’t say the hardware was perfect but could have been made good enough to at least work. The software held it back.
Of course it is building hardware. It just isn't building all of it, which is what all of us do with everything we build, to some degree or another. I can run some wood through a CNC machine and I still count it as building something even if I didn't grow the tree nor cut it down nor kiln dry the wood nor cut it to exact size I needed for it to be put into a CNC machine.
Emergencies, Frameshifts and What They Tell Us About Our Place in the World
It looks like you've been misled about the US. The US welfare budget is mind-bogglingly large, over a Trillion dollars per year. Yes, Trillion with a T.

Healthcare costs can be very important for Americans working in low-wage positions, but are essentially irrelevant for tech workers.

Here's how healthcare costs impact my life on an hours-worked basis:

Monthly health insurance premium: 20 minutes of my wage per month

Office visit at a primary care doctor: 12 minutes of my wage

Office visit at a specialist: 15 minutes of my wage

Maximum amount I can possibly pay in a year (eg, if I get in a car accident and spend months in intensive care): 20 hours of my wage

To be clear, the American who is driving Uber full-time or cooking food at McDonalds would have a drastically worse situation, and their costs might be multiple hours worked to see a doctor or multiple weeks of wages to cover a catastrophic hospitalization. But on a tech salary, healthcare is trivially covered.
> An obvious counter-point to that are the millions of short/bald/ugly/whatever guys who are married and have kids.

It's a counterpoint only if you don't understand statistics at all.

Lastpass has been sketch for years but AOL was still making money thanks to those CDs and email addresses last I checked. My chase card also recommends lastpass in their app’s shopping section.

I thought Pickett v Prince established precedent that you can’t copyright an unauthorized derivative work.

Right, and as soon as 45 is the official version and 44 is deprecated, you won't have any extensions. That's not what I consider a stable DE, unless you're one of the many people here who apparently simply don't use extensions at all and like the out-of-the-box experience. (And if you're one of those people, that's fine, but the whole issue here is customizability so this discussion doesn't apply to you. It's like joining a discussion about the challenges of being a minority and then saying "well I'm not a minority so I don't have these problems! You should be more like me!")
