Mine has been going on 4 years now with zero issues with the camera (ZWO 178MC). The acrylic domes however are a hot mess. Frequently have to replace them. Really need to find high quality glass domes preferably with anti-reflective coating.
Even better is when people post issues on Reddit or whatever asking for help because that's the most low friction way for them to ask, and then a project contributor replies with "hey can you send this to the mailing list?" and so the person sends it in and is met with exactly fucking this. It's just such a great use of everyone's time.
Some years ago, my son took a turn too close, and clipped one of DC's granite curbs, damaging the sidewall of the tire. The first tire shop I called (in Maryland, just over the line) quoted me a price, which when I showed up turned out to omit the tire disposal fee for the ruined one. I went next door and paid about the same price. My recollection is that the disposal fee was somewhere between one and two thirds of the new tire price.

One thing I’ve noticed is that the people who “live in their email client” (and this applies to Outlook and to using emacs to read email) are very productive if everything is working right. I’ve seen people blow through a number of patches and discussions in their email client faster than I can even get GitHub to load the notifications.

And then there’s a philosophical discussion if burning newbie’s time or discouraging them is worth making the old guard’s time more productive- including discouraging interactions entirely.

(This is why for certain projects you can be entirely useful even if you can’t code; just as an intermediary)

1. The Systems Settings app is a disaster trying to merge the touch interface of iPad with the less direct interface of macOS. Selective PrefPane management is gone and you must weed through cognitive overload of dozens of options like it's Windows. The Settings app doesn't allow resizing, and instead is narrow and tiny.

2. Too many things are done for stylistic fashions rather than for functional improvements. Changing the look with every release is prioritized over fixing long-standing bugs or keeping longstanding useful features like network locations (which effectively doesn't work anymore because it drops connections).

3. There's no way to oversimplify control and choice. If you remove that choice, then you end up with assumptions, violations, and willful ignorance.

This already happens. You can find all US NIH funded research for free on pubmed.
That depends on cashflow needs, and just how sure someone is that their spreadsheet (and expected future value) will turn out to be true. For property prices to go up 10% yoy credibly, property in that market has to actually change hands after all, and that requires someone spending cash or financing every year do the deal and to produce the data.

If that stops happening, eventually everyone has to adjust their spreadsheets/models, and all the sudden that model gets very grim.

actual cashflow is real/concrete and hence has a momentum and credibility that tends to reduce panic. It gives time to wait out market valuation issues, since there is money to pay the bills coming in.

And once the money changes hands, it also is ‘permanently’ the owners. That reduces risk.

Expected market value? Not so much, on any of those fronts. And at some point, all but the most die hard true believers are going to want to know why they’re dumping cash into finance payments (or keeping cash locked up) for property that isn’t worth it.

At some point with speculation, enough people blink that it collapses.

Or maybe not. At least that is what everyone in that situation tells themselves.

But it isn’t panning out for Chinese firms anymore like it used to.

This takes time to actually happen though, as everyone has very strong incentives to keep wil-e-coyote’ing once they’ve run off the edge of the cliff.

And somehow people always find reasons to not update those spreadsheets when the numbers are going down instead of up. For many of them, they ran off this cliff many years ago.

And it does work, as long as there are enough ‘greater fools’ around, and there are a lot of greater fools, or they can afford to wait.

Boomers here and in China can still go for many years before they have to sell.
Oh, please. Everyone and their dog heard about hydroxychloroquine in the first 3 weeks of the pandemic.

Exactly the same for me. I’ve had it for as long as I remember and chalk it up to going to too many punk rock shows as an angsty teen (and never wore ear plugs because I was “too cool”).

It’s always there for me but I usually forget about it and only notice it when something draws my attention to it.

According to an app I’ve used on my phone (Mimi Hearing Test), I have about 14db HL in each ear.

Somewhat related, but I just cannot follow conversations in a noisy environment, like a pub. All the background noise and chatter just washes out the voices of people I’m around.

Anyway, I now bring earplugs every time I go to a show.

The reason it’s implemented this way is that slack doesn’t have the ability to generate a per user thumbnail based on the access rights of the document.

As the sender of the slack link, Slack should give the option to include the preview or not, like it does for other unfurl’s.

Where there would be a major problem is if someone could trick slack to generate a preview of a link they don’t have access to.

Secondarily, I have seen slack show an obsolete preview, which could result in something accidentally shared.
Sadly you’re right. Microsoft has brainwashed many IT departments into forcing oauth on everything, no app specific passwords, no regular passwords, nothing else. Thankfully they do support this on imap and smtp, but you have to have something that can handle it. I use a modified version of isync with the sasl plugin to fetch mail, and a python smtp sender that supports the oauth flow along with a set of scripts for generating a new refresh token every few months. It’s a heck of a lot of stuff to maintain, but at least it works. If anyone’s interested I could provide links or upload the modified versions to fix o365 quirks.
This was reported at least 4 years ago and Slack doesn't apparently view it as a security issue: https://nitter.net/SlackHQ/status/1171336897819529219

You should vote for someone that supports "Extended Producer Responsibility" laws that make the people who make the decisions deal with the costs.

The government isn't holding a gun to your head demanding that you accept responsibility for your plastic consumption. If it's something you care about, you're necessarily responsible. You can't just pass all the responsibility to corporations. Glass Coke bottles are still used in Mexico because consumers bother to deposit them enough for bottle reuse to be economical.
It's only appears tenuous because the subjective choices you have to make when using frequentist methods are made for you by the developer of the method.

It's less comfortable to use Bayesian methods because you have to be explicit about your assumptions as the user, which opens your assumptions up for easier inspection. There's also way less specific information implied by priors than most people think. Informative priors should try to make distinctions between something that's reasonable-ish and something that's essentially infinity (take pharmacokinetics for example, the diffusion velocity of a molecule in your blood stream shouldn't have a velocity near the speed of light in a vacuum should it?). They should not be forcing your model to achieve a particular result. Luckily, because of the need to explicitly state them in a Bayesian analysis, it's much easier to determine if they were properly set.

Prior specification is essentially problem domain-informed regularization where you can actually hope to understand if the hyperparameter is going to work or not.
FTX thief cashes out millions during Bankman-Fried trial
In our state, there's a lot of people who got burned during covid by people not paying rent and refusing to leave, and no realistic way to evict. There are still covid related restrictions on evictions in place. An acquaintance of mine has a kind heart and took in a homeless person. He's done this before on occasion. This time, the person is causing all kinds of problems and is unwilling to leave. He now has to live with this person in his house for a minimum of 6 months to get them evicted, even though no rent was ever paid or asked for.

He's never going to take in people again. Nor will he ever rent out to anyone again.

California Insider (channel killed by Youtube) documented how thousands of former rental units are sitting vacant in San Francisco because of issues like this.

Increasing the risk to landlords even more than it already is will only reduce available rentals even more.
It’s an economic axiom that high interest rates mean lower asset prices.

If that is the case, why is housing so expensive?
> looked at census data on the nation’s 50 largest metropolitan areas and found there are 5.47 million vacant housing units, with an average vacancy rate of 7.22 percent.

This feels sensational. Imagine a common scenario: a unit is rented for 2 years (24 months), and then is vacant for 1 month while the owner repaints, performs maintenance, and relists the property for rental. That is 1/(24+1) = 4% vacancy. Given you can easily get to 4% vacancy with simple turnover, you can see why very low vacancy rates are bad for renters: they indicate it is extremely competitive to find housing. You can see this anecdotally in extremely tight housing markets like NYC where renters looking for apartments often report they need to move extremely quickly to secure rentals and some people even ofter to pay more than the listing price for desirable apartments.

Regardiing condensation, if you can make the case kind of air tight, maybe you can either fill it with nitrogen, make a light vacuum, or pre-dry the air inside (I remember some tricks to avoid condensation in underwater cameras that consisted in storing it open in the fridge for some hours or something like that, to have drier air inside, I'll look for that again...)

I’m not an expert in real estate but this doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. Sometimes tenants might do so much damage that it would be better to not have rented the unit at all, but this hardly seems likely for most tenants?

Also, it seems like an apartment building that’s mostly rented out would sell for more than one that’s mostly vacant and losing money? Assuming it’s not a teardown.

It seems like it’s similar to any other business. A profitable business would go for more than an unprofitable one.

I can see it as a reason to be picky about tenants, though.
Well played. How do they decide if a property is rentable?

Fluid flows/sticks more easily along the sharp seam than the rounded corners. So there is always a little bit close to that sharp focus point near your lips. You slurp/sip from that sharp point, drawing more fluid along the seam.

But, for exactly the same reasons, this thing is probably a pain to clean. Sharp corners and cleaning don't mix. That narrow seam will likely become caked in the dried residue of a hundred previous drinks. Even in an earth dishwasher, soap scum would be difficult to rinse out. I suspect these are not used many times.

I think it's more trying to make things which vary fit in a "you shall not vary" square box that is the problem. Technically, this metric/decimal method makes more sense for what we're trying to do, but it's less of a "time" thing than it is a "let's have the same numbers every day so we can agree on when synchronous events need to happen." To _measure_ elapsed time, using a fixed unit such as a second is perfectly fine.
