at best it's requiring people who don't care about the shipping time to subsidize those who do.

I would absolutely kill for a job that’s 2 days per week in office with everyone on my team in one room. It’s really amazing but it’s hard to find anything but places that do “zoom from open office”, which is nonsense.
JPOW sold all his stocks at the peak. He is gonna keep rates high until he can buy something at a steep discount, and it ain't 2x4s.
When you do want to maintain multiple simultaneous versions of an API that can be used simultaneously, then you might employ a SemVer style approach. Really, each version of the endpoint is addressed separately (as its own endpoint).

AWS has employed this strategy before when making significant changes to APIs. I believe DynamoDB is on version 2 for example.

I’d agree that versioning services this way is uncommon due to the expense of maintaining multiple simultaneous code stacks (which can be more than 2x the effort of one stack - see my other comment in this thread). But if client experience is paramount and/or migration is difficult then it may make sense.
And thus we see the sham of Mastodon, where people are supposed to be able to go for freedom from censorship and jagoff moderators... but where swaths of content or users are banned.
Nope, Apple just likes profit.
What about the application to serial criminals, where you have one person committing a series of crimes over time. Wouldn’t geographic profiling and ML be better suited for this?
Fwiw, even in such a simple thing as a basket, a civilization can show its level: the pattern can demonstrate the use of tools that can't be produced by a simpler civilization, or it can creatively encode some truths that the people knew. So if you're making baskets, chances are that your work, in 10,000 years, will be the only thing that matters, unlike the most other things we consider important today.

It looks like many stores cut down on robbery opportunities by not having a cash register. They don't give change back, they only give store credit if you don't pay in exact change. That way, they can just put each cash payment in an envelope and drop it into a time-locked safe. (I imagine that they would do that, I don't know for sure.)

Guess I should be learning from you then.
Is oak veneer plywood exposure rated?
Yes, we need to draw the line somewhere.

Personally I draw the line at "are you directly acting on someone else or someone else's property ?".

In this case, and in the case of simple substance use, I'd say no, it doesn't cross that line, and there's a decent argument for depenalizing it.
That is not viable nor the responsibility of an individual business.
Labor was not free during covid, it was harder to find than ever
No, this was all done in handwritten .sql scripts. I don't think it matters too much in this case, but we're using Rust and the sqlx cli for driving the migrations, but that basically just runs the sql migration scripts
Make access to a bank account a right. Take all of the unbanked/unprofitable customers and assign them to banks weighted by each bank’s market share. No matter their Chexsystems report status.
Operation Choke Point was run by the government within the framework of the existing banking sector. It was enacted by DoJ (one part of the government) then:

"In August 2014, U.S. Representative Blaine Luetkemeyer introduced a bill that would limit law enforcement's ability to restrict access to the banking system as a response against Operation Choke Point.[12]"

So it was stopped by Congress, another part of government.

The existence or non-existence of cash wouldn't have made a difference to the ability of pay day lenders or firearms dealers to continue operating because I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be able to get access to cash to conduct their business unless they had bank accounts!

My point is that a government supplied electronic payment system would make no difference to the ability of a government to engage in anything more or less nefarious than they can already do, and the legislative process is capable of dealing with that (and if it's not, cash won't save you either).
What if that box is put under pressure? Would that reduce the MJ necessary for the boiling point?

Historia Civilis made a pretty good video on the nature of hours worked since time immemorial[0].

The takeaway message is: yes, the capital class are and have always been the main drivers of longer hours.

The first step to helping the unbanked is removing banks from the picture altogether.

They are technically wholly unnecessary in the 21st century for the purposes of sending/receiving/keeping a running total of funds in an electronic database entry ascribed to an entity.

And I'm sure Usenet is just fine for the people who are still on it. For the mass market, it might be a different story. It's not like the masses are piling onto mastodon atm so maybe it'll always be niche unless someone finds a way to make a buck with it.
Most people (including Muslims) have forgotten that the Muslim world used to capture and enslave large number of Christians on a regular basis.

In fact, it was one of the drivers of the Crusades, an idea conveniently forgotten by Muslims who point at the Crusades as evidence of the West's hostility to Muslims.

Enslaving others is, while not necessarily normal, not uncommon. The enlightenment really changed things around, which shows the power of ideas.
The original comment I was responding to went into great detail about how the defense is claiming that all of the mishaps were due to incompetence rather than malice, so my responses were my views on that sort of defense strategy. It sounds like you don't think this sort of defense is valid at all, but I'm not sure why you're arguing with me like I was the one who presented that idea.
I've met multiple people this week who recently relocated from Toronto. Rent is expensive everywhere, but it seems like TO is especially bad
Wouldn't that work just as well as including in the prompt a requirement for it to not make any mistakes?
Site/project creator here. It's nice to see my creation garner interest.

In all honesty, the project mostly serves as documentation and archival of Windows/Linux bootlegs (that is to say, relative popularity is kind of a side thing for me, though it's still nice. Having a reverse ego and limiting the project seems like a very bad move to make for an archival project IMO), as feeble file sharing websites have taken many links to them completely down.

As of the 2 years the project's been around, there's already at least a dozen bootlegs inside of the archive which, if we didn't have them, would not be on the clearnet (I'm sure there's probably at least one person hoarding at least a few which aren't public anymore, but I'm not counting that).

Jagoff moderators are as old, or older, than the internet my friend.
So there are some measures by which America will never have a culture like other countries.

We're a young country, by many standards -- just 250 years, by most standards, four centuries if your really push it, only a century or two for most of our cities.

We have always been in a state of change and development -- the Eerie Canal was less than fifty years old when the trans-continental railroad was completed. The Pony Express was put out of business by the telegraph within two years. The shopping mall era was maybe three decades. It's hard to find any techniques or traditions or enterprises which last more than a generation or two when everything changes so much.

We have always existed in the global context. Take pizza -- it's hard to find a more American cuisine than pizza. Our cities have their own rivalries and pride over their takes on it. But it started off as Italian pizza after WWII, and we of course immediately re-exported our takes on pizza through the globe, so you can hardly claim it's distinctly American.

We've always been a fragmented culture. The breaded pork tenderloin sandwich is on the menu at half of the restaurants in Indiana, but virtually unknown outside of it. Mardi gras is a huge thing in New Orleans, but not New York. There's barely anything besides fireworks on the fourth of July you can say is truly done throughout the US.

We have plenty of culture of course, from jazz clubs to Shaker furniture to apple orchards and county fairs and quilting bees and all the history and artisans you could ask for; it will just never be the same as the culture that develops over hundreds of years in stagnant isolation.

This is very impressive!

Problems I see in the Latin:

(1) The sentence beginning "verum, si Angelorum" loses the thread in the middle (as you can also see in the English translation). The if-clause (protasis) has no main verb, while there is no then-clause (apodosis) at all.

(2) I think "inactiones" is hallucinated. This word isn't found in Wiktionary, Lewis & Short's Latin Dictionary, or Souter's Glossary of Later Latin. If it existed, it also wouldn't be an adjective meaning "inactive".

(3) In the indirect discourse governed by "prodiderunt", the subject should also be accusative ("angelos esse nuntios divinos").

(4) Since "confundo" is generally transitive, it's a bit questionable to say "ne confundamus" without an object like "eos", although I'm not positive it's not idiomatic.

(5) I would think "sinistrum" rather than "sinistram" if the intention is to refer to "something sinister" rather than "the left-hand side".

(6) "nox a lucem fugiat" is wrong (the preposition "a" always governs the ablative, not the accusative), and should probably be either "nox lucem fugiat" (less likely to me "nox a luce fugiat"). For rhetorical parallelism with "a veritate" it would definitely be "a luce".

(7) The orthography is also inconsistent in writing "iam" but then quoting the Aeneid as saying "juvabit" (if you write consonantal i as j, you would expect to do it consistently everywhere).

Again, it's very impressive. That's a lot fewer mistakes than I would make writing a Latin text of this length!
Notion - I moved from Evernote so for the most part I still use it like Evernote, although I'm adopting the more complex features as I find them useful.

Microsoft Office Family pack - I keep an eye out for discounts on this through the year so I don't think I've ever paid the sticker price. 1TB of storage for 6 users is a good thing, the kids know where to store their stuff, and Office is sometimes handy as well.

Affinity Photo - I'm never going to pay Adobe for a Photoshop subscription, and this competitor gets better over time.

Currently trying to migrate away from our password manager but need to find the time and energy to give 1Password a go.

We also use Keep Notes for general lists and shopping stuff - packing lists for trips away are really useful, as well as lists of jobs around the house.

Not to mention that it's immoral to punish people for have no bank credit, and even leaving aside the ethical implications it creates a split-level society that pushes part of the population further toward desperation and crime.

Banning cash to allegedly keep workers safe is the ultimate whitewashing of corporate greed at the expense of workers and the public. This is a good law.
Construction prices are still elevated due to labor shortages, lumber is only a minor component.

And don't say "so pay labor more" because there is a labor shortage in every single industry. If you pay more for job x, job y will also go up, until everyone goes up and then inflation is higher.
I'll be honest, I never liked this argument.

First, it didn't happen then, specially if wages being halved meaning that there isn't even a theoretical possibility of working half the hours for the same pay.

And why does doubling labour force halve wages? Land is limited so the higher competition can mean more workers mean higher prices, sure. But for everything else, productivity of workers per hour increased. This isn't the middle ages where demand for labour is more or less limited by the availability of agricultural land. Why can't the new and old workers capture the same share of the pie they produce as before women joined the wage labour force?

Another move in the wrong direction. Why should private businesses be selectively shouldering the burden of society?

Mandate the USPS (federal government) to offer electronic money accounts to everyone.
Uh huh, so we all keep money in a safe/home?

Or are you going to propose yet another wildly unworkable cryptoscam?
Thanks for letting me know—I've fixed that bug now.
Last time I checked Threads was still not available in Europe so that'd be another curtailment.
Actually, paying with cash is a great way to avoid tipflation. Tip if you like, whatever amount you feel is an appropriate employment subsidy for the service rendered, but you won’t be awkwardly forced into it by an iPad.
Would litres make more sense? It is kind of vague though, since you'd be paying for the cuts you have to make and material you'll lose.
The money comes from somewhere.

In this case, the people who were defrauded.

There is no free lunch, if you aren't adding value to the economy equal to or exceeding what you're taking, you're taking from someone else.

I think this is probably just bad wording on the part of the author. But I do think it's bad wording partially caused by a messed up view of the world vis a vis pedestrians and cars.
Businesses have a legal obligation to not discriminate against lots of recognized classes. Those without credit cards should be protected as well, because living in this country should not require you to participate in a debt-based system. If it did, it would be government of banks, not a democracy.

Forcing people to have a bank account or a credit card to buy food enforces a monopoly on money.
Strategically? Perhaps. Morally and practically? I support broad legalization.
A bank does not keep your money in a safe. Cash is a very, very small portion of money. We are mostly just editing numbers in various databases over and over.

I would propose the federal government offer an inalienable electronic money account as a constitutionally guaranteed right.
Once you understand the subtlety, it is no longer "the sham of mastodon":

ActivityPub, the protocol, is the freedom you describe.
But individual servers, using the mastodon software and activitypub protocol, they may or may not, depending on server admins.

If you don't like content bans or user bans, you have three options:

(1) find a mastodon server with the same values re freedom/censorship as you have.

(2) set up such a server yourself

(3) don't use mastodon/ap

Great idea for a thread.
+1. It’s really as simple as what lostdog mentioned.

I will add that this will last a generation but no more. There are tons of companies make it work remotely note that these “old schoolers” once they are gone and replace buy gen z and gen z+1 will have a completely diff modus operandi. The only way this accelerates is the next google /apple / meta is a remote first company. This will unleash fully remote to the mainstream
The essential element of vehicular manslaughter that differentiates it from "a crash in which someone dies" is the mental state of the driver - specifically, that they're acting in a reckless or negligent manner.

This is fundamentally nothing to do with economic trade-offs: it's about generally disincentivizing risk-taking when in command of a multi-ton vehicle moving at speed.

We can know this because even if a "bad" driver is objectively more risky than a professional race-car driver who is 20yo, but has drunk a beer; it's the latter that's committing a crime when they drive.
Thanks—I've changed the map so that it plots annual depth by default now. Yes I agree the popup is "unnecessary", but I wanted to make it easy for the site to be used for extreme stats without having to wade through seasonal stats first.
Salinas or salt marshes are highly productive for native species adapted to high salt levels. Brine shrimp feed Flamingoes (if you are lucky) or other aquatic bird species.

No, you can't just assume this salt burden is fine, and that we get good salt marshes from it, but it's also not entirely true that high salt level brine is going to "destroy" the ecology. It's going to alter it, for sure. That isn't always very good, it depends what else has also destroyed the ecology, and what upsides there are to making a salt marsh.

No, I'm reacting to a complaint about a specific event. If there's a complaint to be raised about data collection for something innocuous, raise that instead. In this particular instance, I'm glad this horrible person was tagged like an animal and collected, saving a young girl's life.
Oh come on, you're really just twisting semantics to the extreme to try to score a political point. It's obvious the article wasn't actually saying the car had the right to hit the woman.
> Several positive aspects of US culture belong to non conservative areas: NYC, Hollywood...

Regional cultures aren't national culture, I'd tuck this alongside subcultures in my original comment.

> NASA, Silicon Valley

Have internal business cultures, of which the vast majority of Americans have never participated in.

> Culture is not just ancient low tech practice.

I didn't say it was. I'm also not saying the US doesn't have ANY culture. I'm just meandering on the topic that cultural fetishism can be appealing to Americans because of how our own culture has grown to be and how immature it still is.

Japan and France have American cultural fetishists too.

> Japanese culture likewise has some negative aspects too

I acknowledged this in my original comment as well.
Real demons prefer Latin.
In many cases you won't be found at fault, and probably in the vast majority of cases you won't be found criminally at fault (and in some jurisdictions, you are at fault just because you are in a car, and it doesn't matter how poorly the pedestrian behaved). However, it would still be a mess physically and mentally. No one wants that experience in their head for the rest of their lives.
This often backfires on your game design. Like in escape from tarkov, where booming bitcoin prices made any player with GPUs very rich ingame. (also, tying the weather system to moscow weather led to people being annoyed at the constant rain)

I'd be interested to see someone attempt market manipulation IRL to affect their game though.
So?

Taking cash costs money as well: more security, more auditing, more cash transport, higher insurance costs, etc

Even better, because of forced cash now every business incurs those costs even if the overwhelming majority of their transactions aren’t in cash.

The solution to “discrimination against homeless” is not forcing people to take cash, it’s forcing banks to allow homeless people to open bank accounts.
I've changed the map so that it plots annual depth by default now.
This would make for a very interesting nostr use case.
> So, the robot basically ignored the first law

you don't know that. She was first hit by a regular car and could have been hidden from the robot's view until after the initial collision.
> Discourage unnecessary compatibility breakages

You can't standardize "unnecessary"

> when comparability breakage is really needed.

This isn't a problem with semver, it's a problem with developer attitudes and behavior. Arguably semver does nothing to affect this either way, and adding "several sentences" will do exactly nothing to change it.
Because not taking card or mobile payments doesn't directly harm people. It's a little less convenient, but you can still carry out your business.

By contrast, allowing direct businesses to not take cash harms a not small section of our society.

General tendency for internet content tends to be strong separation between creators and consumers, in particular limited interest of consumers in other consumers (think twitch chat. Each message is valued very little compared to the streamer, to the point where they always read out messages they respond to). That means unless there's something nudging people to default outside of central path of audio, adding to conversation isn't part of canon content.

There could be a way for responder to signal where the content they are answering starts, with some sort of fuzzy automation in the future. I have strong doubts about the actual experience of this for the listener, but maybe that's solvable.

I meant situation, where I already consumed the whole recording, but it gets response later on.

I do not have mental model for context being logically attached to the response. Do you think about it as response+context being a valid piece of content?
Semver is hardly just major version numbers.
To be honest I think I misremembered about the accounting. It was very bad but I can't remember if any external investor noticing, it was just weird that none of them asked for a seat on the board and also failed to conduct enough due diligence to notice how bad it was.

In a way, it's like Theranos, it wouldn't be that hard to conduct just enough due diligence to notice something amiss, like the machine barely worked...
There are debit cards too.
> Shielding from radiation requires large barriers. So you need to spend most time in a relatively small quarters guarded by large mass barriers

The amount of shielding needed is squared every time you increase the amount of living space by the third power. All that means is that whenever people manage to live on space, they will live on something huge, not a station like the one on the movie. The most stupid way to do it is by creating small quarters on small stations.

Also, that's when near a star. If you are moving very fast away from one, your need for shielding will increase linearly every time you increase the living space by the third power. Making smaller ships even less viable, but large ones with plenty of space.
> Further, 0.01 cents per 6.4 gallons is 500$ per acre foot which is horrifically excessive for agriculture where most water is used.

Which suggests that something is egregiously wrong with residential water pricing.

I appreciate that you can more eloquently communicate what I meant to say. Thanks!
I can't stand that Instagram doesn't let you copy and paste (or save) content out of it, and I also can't stand when Threads also doesn't let you do the same thing. In the Threads app, you literally can't just select the text of a thread to paste elsewhere. To hell with that.
