I used YNAB before but much prefer LunchMoney[1] (the thing that got me to switch initially was better multi-currency support, since I generally make money in one currency, hold it in another, and spend it in a third). My referral link[2] will get you 1 month free ;)

SpaceX is about to launch about 1600 tons to space this year, massively more than has been the global combined tonnage in the years before. And their launch slots are selling like hotcakes (which is also due to others turning out to be pretty incompetent in producing any rocket comparable to Falcon 9 in a decade, but thats a different story).

So I think the demand is there & finally the costs are low enough to enable many missions that we just can't afford before (like all those lunar landers showing up recently) and I don't think this trend will slow down any time soon, thankfully.

I purchased foldersync for android to copy nightly photos off the phones to our nas to \name\yyyymm\ to backup our photos without relying on 3rd party sync. Solves the issue of losing videos/photos if a phone breaks. http://photos/ can browse them with photoview.

For me free software is more valuable: keepass, seafile, and paperlessngx with a printer that scans to it with a button and a scan@mydomain.tld has made a huge difference particularly to be paperless and has WAF.

I purchased an airgradient indoor + outdoor after multiple plugs here and it is helpful for deciding if we should open windows as sensitive to forest fire smoke so it also counts. (I will say it had damage when it arrived and it's been annoying having to reach out a couple times to see if it can be replaced.)

Finally, I recently added lunchmoney.app for finances but time will tell if it is more than a novelty.

Both of the cars were stopped beside each other at a stoplight when the pedestrian was crossing the road.

Here is what a human driver could have done in this situation that the Cruise car did not:

1) Look over at the other driver for whom the coast is not clear. Are they paying attention? Do they see the pedestrian? Are they texting on their phone?

2) Be aware that sometimes distracted drivers will start moving their car again when they see that the car beside them has started to drive.

3) If the other driver is distracted, wave to try to get their attention. Roll down your window. Yell "hey!" and point to the pedestrian. As a last resort you can use your car horn, but that may make them lurch forward into the pedestrian.

4) If your attempts to make sure the other driver is paying attention have failed, you should NOT go, even if the light has turned green, until you have assured that the pedestrian has safely crossed the road. You should be prepared to motion to other drivers that come after that they also need to stop to prevent the pedestrian from being run over by multiple cars.

I get it, all this situational awareness stuff is difficult to code, but it's an important part of driving.

> Using the term 'anti-piracy' makes the speaker a shill

No, it absolutely does not. "Piracy" is a reasonably neutral word with a specific definition (it's slightly different than "theft") - you are artificially assigning nonexistent emotional weight to it in order to push your own political agenda.
There are some things that attempt to blunt and provide relief for exploding property valuations. There's a concept of a homestead exemption which 1) reduces the valuation of your home by a fixed amount (which was potentially recently increased) and 2) caps the amount of taxable increase by 10% each year. But with #2, your assessed value does go up, the difference between that 10% and its actual assessed value is shown as a cap loss which you then whittle away in future years as it marches up 10% until it hits the current valuation. This homestead exemption can only be claimed on an individual's primary residence.

And as mentioned, some governments have already passed tax relief in the form of cutting some rates. But not after getting a few years of these windfall tax rates. I don't completely mind; I think the city I live in has some pretty good city services overall. I get a lot of enjoyment from the public parks, library, bike trails, and more. I just lament the fact this is probably just an additional cost that'll keep marching along going higher and higher outpacing inflation overall.

No, the main idea is that this isn't an app for creating podcasts with friends in real-time. While you might equate "asynchronous" with "not live", the actual contrast is between asynchronous and synchronous. The decision to stream a podcast live or make it available for playback later is separate from whether it's recorded in real-time or not. The "micro" aspect emphasizes the app's focus on short conversations, not extensive podcast recordings.

People would submit fewer applications, but each individual application would have a higher chance of success, because everyone else would _also_ be submitting fewer applications. The number of job openings is the same either way, so the same number of people get hired in the end, right?
It’s interesting you say this. There’s something cultural in Japan that optimises the hell out of something even after it becomes obsolete everywhere else and then cannot let go of that investment. Or perhaps the people involved in the process stop questioning whether other processes may be better and then simply iterate upon the path they are already on?

Take the buses: They have the most amazing automated machines for giving you change from banknotes and then collecting/calculating the correct fare payment in coins. Similar machines exist in some retailers. Try to pay by card and you won’t travel very far.

Much of the rest of the world moved to contactless card payments over a decade ago

I sort of sympathise on some levels - the investments they made in these ”refinements” are not trivial. I suspect Japan will stick to its legacy processes. IMHO It will succeed as a niche curiosity that outsiders find interesting as the world passes it by.

I have to wonder if such curiosity tourism will ever be enough to cover its economic needs.

Not the sea, but the localized area might have a brine lake, which is a deadzone for marine life there. If diffused over a large area, it will not have an impact. The only problem is cost.

No, you're not correct. We have over $2M ARR and with the amount of data we are storing it would be downright stupid to use Supabase.

We don't also "pipe" our data to Supabase, we use a couple different data stores depending on the best use case. For example we also use R2 and Durable Objects.

Just because you have a hammer doesn't mean everything is a nail.
Thanks for the reply, a write up on pros/cons in these approaches would be fantastic. I have no clue which is better but I believe pgosc is heavily inspired by github/gh-ost, their tool for online schema change for mysql.
I certainly agree about the great strides that were made, but there is much more room for improvement: while desalination has become cost effective for residential volumes, further improvements could enable cost effective desalination at even larger volumes for irrigation, and prevention of drought enabled wild fires, especially considering rising temperatures (air and soil).
Thanks! I appreciate that. The lack of firmware/android updates really does hamstring their appeal.

FWIW, and I don't know whether to be cynical or impressed by this, but claims ($19.5BB) against Madoff's fraud have been largely restituted ($14.6BB, ~75%).

There were individual human investors in both Madoff and FTX. There were also wealth funds and the absurdly rich in both.

But as it stands today, FTX may have done more harm to humans than Madoff.

I get the sentiment but this reads more like an angry tirade than anything. I would probably be better off with my five minutes back. But now i feel obligated to respond.

As someone new to my organization and team I’ve greatly benefited from a partial rto mandate. There’s something about being able to quickly bounce ideas or questions off a team that physically sits around you that slack can’t quite emulate. There are productive discussions that happen which simply would not have otherwise happened. Teams become closer as they better understand each other and get to know what motivates one another (not always the paycheck, as in OP case). You become more empowered to take a step back out of your daily work and give consideration to the bigger picture when you’re surrounded by other groups.

I’ve worked remotely most of my life and am a proponent of it. I also think moving someone who was hired as a remote employee, to an in-person role, is a huge dick move. But to pretend like there are no benefits to occasionally being in-person seems like naivety bordering ignorance (For most team based roles which require strategic thinking).

Hiring can become a bigger challenge when your competition allows fully remote work, and companies should expect to increase compensation in one form or another, or otherwise lose talent. For some companies, e.g. mine, those steps have been worth taking. Small price to pay to preserve our awesome culture.
I'm not sure what to think of this scenario. If the autonomous vehicle did indeed have a pedestrian launched in front of it, and it aggressively braked, but still hit her...that may have been the best it could do.

And then, as it for it staying on top of her leg, not much it could do there either. Moving forward or backward could have been worse, depending on how she might have been entangled. That particular part of the scenario has no reasonable human-like option. A current day robot can't look under the car and make a good decision about what to do.

Note that I'm not saying it's all okay. Just saying I'm not sure there's any short-term fix for that sequence of events.

Very true. Many years ago when I worked in restaurants, it was well understood that the vast majority of customers who have bad experiences at your restaurant will not complain to staff or management. They will simply leave and not return, but they more than likely will tell their family and friends.
That's true and I don't mean to cast blame on how we got here.

But it's disappointing in practice. My wife and kids are tribal members (technically, albeit at long distance) so we stop by Pow Wows sometimes and I feel like there's a lot of missed opportunity. Mostly ends up being a place to resell commercial trinkets (of course with some exceptions).

> $.01 per 6.4 gallons

That’s not directly comparable to residential rates because you now need to pump that water up hill and through a distribution network to customers. Desalination occurs at sea level and getting that to anywhere but costal cities is even more expensive.

Further, 0.01 cents per 6.4 gallons is 500$ per acre foot which is horrifically excessive for agriculture where most water is used. Using it for Alfalfa would cost more than 10x what the crop is worth. Desalination is therefore still only viable in very niche areas without heavy subsidies.

> I mean, arguments about the difference between the two are interesting in an academic sort of way if you're into Marxist theory, but the USSR called itself a union of socialist states. North Korea's constitution says it's a socialist state. Etc. They are very clear on this point. They are socialists, these are countries run by scholars of Marx and that's the term they use.

You’re just continuing on the path of self-identification. Would you call North Korea democratic just because that’s what they call themselves?

If not, then why not when you seem to have no qualms calling them socialist because on the basis that they call themselves that in their constitution?

> You can get into endless arguments about how they are No True Socialists but it just ends up being like a word game.

You paint it as some sort of semantics game, meanwhile both socialism and communism are well defined.

Notwithstanding the different flavors, they all have certain elements in common as a fundamental requirement and no amount of trying to fit the Soviet shaped peg into a round hole changes that.

> That's why the European parties that lean in that direction tend to cast themselves as "social democratic", a different term

I understand that you use the word “tend” to hedge your bets, but your comment here implies a certain amount of ubiquity and lack of parties trying to distance themselves.

The reality is that that Europe has a slew of socialist parties that aren’t hiding it either, they’re often called “Socialist Party” in their respective language. Hell there are even some communist parties.

And it’s not like they don’t occupy any seats in the respective parliaments either. Most of these parties have significant presence in parliaments and at other levels.
This is like pigeon superstition but for cops
I think there can be several ways to use it. I think passive listening can and for most will be how it's used. But people who want to discuss and "add to a conversation" will have the option.

Definitely will be modifying the experience to be fully handsfree.

I think the context issue is what can make this actually work or not. Currently it's not built out but my thinking is to have a short context of what was commented on i.e. 10 seconds before the comment. That way you can jump back into the conversation from a new comment left.

I think the context can also be determined by how long it's been since you listened to the last audio - meaning a comment left after a week might have 60s of context vs a comment after 10 mins might just have 5s.

And yes, the UI isn't great at showing what you already listened to now but that needs to be obvious too.

why would you use a UUID for this? A version 4 UUID does have about 122 random bits, so it could work OK for this use case. But firstly, it's unnecessarily short. And secondly, why? FFS, WHY?

Why not just use a random number with the length of your choosing, encoded in hex, base-64, or whatever floats your boat?
