Yep I mentioned that in a comment below, an accidental semiconductor IS possible, but that wasn't my point really. I get the arguers point though, a headboard implies accidental, I wasn't thinking of it that way. But anyway, as we've established, both improvised and accidental are possible and documented.

To be fair, Walgreens is way worse than CVS. There has been insane understaffing throughout their stores and it's terrible. They are like labor shortage, but the reality is that their wages have not kept up with inflation and thus they are unable to hire sufficient staff to staff their stores.

I have been working on a holographic camera, but the ultra-cheap pinhole cameras I chose for the array have two issues: the exposure can't be controlled and the lenses are poorly aligned. I can calibrate away most lens aberrations with OpenCV, but some of the outliers have so much cropping that I am discarding 75% of my good pixels to get a coherent result. I was considering using NeRFs to reproject the ideal camera angles, but COLMAP is not very tolerant of brightness fluctuations and NeRF training is relatively slow (considering my goal is video). This would be a nice solution to my problem, because I have a comprehensive set of angles to pull context from.

Doesn't each new generation of the workforce have a sense of entitlement and privilege previously unheard of? Workplace expectations change every decade; just b/c this expectation of working remote is new doesn't mean that it's irrational.

Many tech organizations genuinely do not reap the benefits of working in-office like some other fields might.

If I were an automotive design engineer, being in-person in the company's design studio would make sense; if I'm developing a highly abstracted and distributed messaging system, what office resources would I utilizing?

From my experience, in-office interactions are not necessarily more productive than online interactions. In fact, when a team has a good grasp of the remote-working tools, we, more often than not, end up communicating more succinctly and effectively.

I am considering/designing/PoCing implementing a low-code (visual programming like Unreal) system for a specialized ETL (algorithmic) system. Both E and L would be nodes and the target audience mostly uses math in the T.

Great advantage seems to be an ability to schedule jobs based on algorithm needs, as everything is known in the graph. I also think we can give some guarantees like infinite loop prevention by analysing the graph.
An alternative I see is a textual DSL which may be even more work to implement and user discovery becomes harder.

> where timestamptz is counterintuitively almost always what you want.

Funny I think the exact opposite. timestamptz would be useful if it stored a timezone, since it does not, it's useless, the application is a much better location to perform timezone handling (or store the timezone in a nearby column, if applicable, possibly even define a custom domain to bundle both).

> So unless you set your cluster to UTC or maybe the "C" locale (which I think converts everything to UTC but I forget), any backend reading from your DB will get timestamps off by several hours.

AKA they'll get the actual timestamp.

A timestamp is either UTC, or it's zoned and associated with a timezone. Adjusting randomly based on the locale machine's configuration or a piece of connection state is definitely a thing I have no interest in.

Locale string configurations have a similar issue of being half-assed and broken. They barely even worked before the internet existed, as soon as more than two different cultures interact with the software they might as well be chucked away for all the good they do (which is close to none). And that's before finding out all the harm they do.

At that point you might as well just go to the pharmacy. The US doesn't have such infrastructure.
I would guess it's probably not worth it because "how much do cannons improve my overall position" is a tricky question, and making a really intelligent and sophisticated answer is not really visibly distinct to players from a stupid heuristic like a sigmoid function of how many walls the player has built. It's an amusing curiosity that you can build stupid walls and trick the AI into researching the tech, but it's better to make those walls you're paying for useful, so you can rely on that being generally true.

I think a lot about some advice I heard from the creator of Brogue. Essentially players have a tough time figuring out how AIs make their decisions and often assign complex motives to them when they don't exist. His example was he coded archers to try to maintain a position in some range band from the player as their primary motivation in a vacuum. The community would assign all sorts of supposed logic to archer behavior because in real-world environments with extra geometry or extra situational AI routines they couldn't see behind the curtain. Additionally, that most game AI exists to create a fun experience for the player, we only make it try to play well in service of that goal.
Lots of eye drops cause a burning sensation as an unfortunate side-effect. Especially astringent types.

I totally agree with 2. I'm less sure on 1. Imagine it's perfect - it would be an accurate representation of what was really there. The real photo is a snapshot of a very specific time that doesn't represent the broader context of what happened.

A different angle, if a friend had painted the encounter instead, it wouldn't be exact but it would be a snapshot of a memory.

I'm not hugely arguing in favour of it but I think there's different scales here, from cameras doing "merge pictures half a second apart so people have their eyes open" to "totally change their face".

The key word here is "voluntarily". My objection is having data about me, my machines, or my use of my machines being collected without my consent.

I'm 30 and haven't been able to break myself of this. When I was a kid scam calls just were not a thing where I lived and if someone was calling it mattered. Absolutely nothing took priority over the phone.

I think the only real solution to this is to use a different, non-phone, device. Consider that the latest GoPro experiences the same problem when recording best-quality video.

Active cooling would probably work — something like a fan blowing directly at your phone — but I don’t think changing the ambient air temperature will be sufficient. (Unless the change is enormous, like recording outdoors in the winter.) Also, make sure your phone is not in a case. Of course, you could always record lower quality video. But that’s not really a solution.
If you're trying to make a point about sacred writings being the first texts, you may want to consider Linear B and cuneiform, some of the oldest texts of the Mediterranean and which are almost exclusively inventory lists. While we have things like the epic of Gilgamesh preserved in baked tablets, this is the exception to the rule. For the vast majority of these most ancient texts, tabulation was the main use of writing: how many animals were sacrificed, how many sheaves of wheat were in storage, how much fruit a plot of land could produce, etc.
As for sacred writings: Many religions were hesitant to commit their wisdom to writing - one reason why so much of Greco-Roman religion is unknown to us. The Oral Torah was supposedly passed on for centuries until the destruction of the temple and fragmentation of the Jews necessitated the writing down of this knowledge. Heck, Homeric poetry (the hymns as well as the epics) was not written down until centuries of oral development had gone on; not because writing had not been invented, but because it was not used for literary material.
If anything, ai will alienate people from social networks. Fakery is already plenty, more will make alienation worse.
At the age of 90+, there's probably an element of enjoying answering the phone to just talk to someone, even if it is a scammer.

Loneliness is a major issue for the elderly and due to culture of the time, there's a lot of resistance to do something about it.

I wonder if there's a service where you can sign-up to be randomly connected to other elderly people. Omegle for the elderly.
Could they not coexist? I think the same was said about Amazon displacing local businesses (and it has to some degree), but we also still manage to have local retailers.

Not a single pharmacy within 10 miles of me has over 2 stars in the reviews. They're impossible to work with, take forever, don't do what they promise, and don't care. I've switched to my insurance carrier's mail order pharmacy and things have been much smoother.

Pay attention to this warning:

> Transferring keys to YubiKey using keytocard is a destructive, one-way operation only. Make sure you've made a backup before proceeding: keytocard converts the local, on-disk key into a stub, which means the on-disk copy is no longer usable to transfer to subsequent security key devices or mint additional keys.

The order of backup, transfer matters. I did a similar setup years ago before that guide existed (or before I knew about it) and ended up with a backup of nothing. Lol. Thankfully I didn’t used the key to sign anything too important and I learned the value of testing your restore procedure for everything before relying on anything.
The counterfactual is that when you're a high profile person, there's always going to be good AND bad stuff written about you simultaneously.

And it's almost impossible for an outsider, or even people who don't deal with the CEO directly in their day to day (so VPs and up), to know how much the written article resembles the truth.
What surprises me is that it has taken the US Gov. so long to act on this. And even more than that, that it took the Telcos so long -- and they've still barely done anything. It is destroying their business. And now the spam is being allowed to creep into the cell market.

The fact that we all have to screen our calls is just insane. Makes phones almost useless for their intended task.
Why do you think that? Assuming both companies worked 4 days between M-F, that would always mean you'd have a minimum of 3 days overlap. Unless we're talking about urgent support type issues, for which scheduling would probably need to be staggered at each company, anyway, I think 3 days a week is totally enough time to schedule necessary meetings and get prompt responses to email communications.

> He didn't just mouth off, he claimed that he could use the device to circumvent their access badge control system through cloning.

It doesn't matter.

What is allowed inside and what is not allowed inside of an airport should not be a matter of personal discretion.

Either a thing is permitted or it is not permitted. There should be no room for interpretation. If the airport has a problem with these devices, they can damn well write a policy that is observable for anyone prior to visiting the airport.

You can try mental gymnastics to justify this all you want, but the fact remains the device not being permitted is not policy, and the decision to confiscate it was made at a personal level.

> If I casually mention to the cabin crew that my mealtime knife could, technically, be used to stab them, should they also let that slide since I'm just stating the capabilities of the knife?

See, like this sort of mental gymnastics. You wouldn't have the knife confiscated, you would have yourself detained and possibly arrested for demonstrating signs of mental instability. The knife would remain on the aircraft and undergo its normal lifecycle. This really wasn't a difficult situation to theorycraft out, so I'm not sure why you thought it'd support your position.

> If I mouthed off and said I can use it for all sorts of stuff, like jamming security frequencies, I would expect to lose cus

See, that's what's so dim about this logic; you've been so programmed to accept the dick that you think it's totally normal that discussing the capabilities of legal objects is valid grounds for intervention that you honestly think this shouldn't be allowed.

You are part of the problem.
That is a fantastic discussion on dragging with Javascript. Really appreciate the information.

I've a quick question. How do you restrict the dragging movement to an axis using the built-in DOM events like dragstart/etc. I had a drag & drop feature implemented using the dragstart/dragenter/dragover/drop/etc events. I couldn't find a quick way to restrict the dragging movement to the x-axis. JQuery's drag and drop API used to support it. I'm trying to use the native DOM events/api only. Any information or pointers are greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your feedback. We adopt this rule mainly considering the data warehouse scenario and to be compatible with apache hive and apache spark.

If the string in question is known to be UTC, which it should be since there is no timezone associated, then it does indicate a particular point in time.
