> You understand that any visible intoxication is overserving a customer right?

No, it's not. Continued service of someone who is visibly intoxicated, however, is.

I understand the tenets of responsible service of alcohol, and that as a server, you are meant to stop service immediately at that point.

Realities, however, are more nuanced.

I teach new EMTs and paramedics, and one of the discussion points is around informed consent and implied consent. Every class has a scenario or two where a student inevitably says to or about a mock patient, "Well, you have been drinking alcohol so I have implied consent to treat you" or similar. "So, because he's had a drink, he can't refuse medical advice/treatment?" "Right."

"So I can go to a restaurant, have two glasses of red wine with dinner, and be legally allowed to drive a motor vehicle home, but not legally make decisions about my own health?"

RSA education is generally more black and white, but even with your comment above you show that it is easy to misinterpret. It is not a case of "if your customer is visibly intoxicated, then you overserved them", because they weren't intoxicated until that point (all else being equal, if someone sits on a bar stool and orders 4 shots of tequila to start and downs them all in front of you, then reasonability applies, of course).
I really don't understand how you reconcile that with unions pushing for federal and state wide wage / benefit increases that cover non-union employees as well. You need a structure with which to organize labor power. Call it whatever you want—whether it's a union or a soviet or a syndicate it's the same idea.

Voting is literally just the bare minimum bottom of the barrel scraping. You have to also agitate for things to be on the ballot, and there is plenty of pressure to be applied outside of the purely electoral lens. A union gives people a direct benefit for organizing while trying to improve conditions for workers in general.
> I don't think punishing people for what companies have done to inflate house prices is a good move though.

The first is that if someone suddenly became wealthy because their house went up 3x in value and they want to continue living there then they can get a reverse mortgage. Assign that new found wealth in the equity to the bank in exchange for getting a monthly payment to pay the tax. If you're arguing they both should be able to stay, and keep the increase in equity that they contributed to them you're arguing housing should be a speculative investment (which leads to bad incentives).

> Screwing over people that bought houses that they live in instead of fixing the root causes for all these insane price hikes seems completely backwards to me.

The whole point is it's not. It's incentivising someone to move so they stop screwing over the 10-20 families they would like to buy a house but can't afford to because the supply is so low. By replacing the single story home with multi floor condos, more people can now afford homes in the area.
> "tech bros fuck off"

I'm on the younger end (20s-early 30s) in SF and I remember stuff like that as a kid (Genentech buses) but haven't seen such stuff in our Gen Z/Millenial bubble. Tbf we mostly live in Mission Bay, Marina, Nob Hill, Richmond, Sunset, Potrero Hill, Dogpatch, Duboce Triangle, etc and the kinds of people who'd say that seem to be "boomers" in the Mission+Potrero+Dogpatch who continue to insist on calling Cesar Chavez "Army St", think grunge and flannels are still hip, and don't have much love for TikTok, KWave, Anime, or Boba.

If you love the former, then there definitely is a place for you in Austin, Denver, ATL, etc.
This sounds equivalent to me to "Don't go into the neighborhoods of New York City, just Times Square and businesses."

Do you really visit the place, then?
A "plug in" eh?
The "safety" of your job depends on the value you add, and on making that value legible to the company.

Sometimes, you have frontline managers who make a team amazing - I'm talking multiples of productivity. They're rare. You shouldn't fire them. If they lack the skill to make that impact visible, they'll still be on the list.

Sometimes, you have director+ folk who do great work at strategically aligning a group. Same thing: If they can make it visible that's what they do, and how it impacts the bottom line, they're in a better position than if they can't.

But in general, management value is harder to make immediately visible than IC value, and managers are producing less immediate and more long-term value. If you're about to run out of cash, they are an easy cut. You can always hire them back if you survive. Cutting ICs means cutting immediate value delivered, so they are less prone (if they deliver value. Fire your low performers)

If you're an IC thinking about management right now? Think carefully. Make sure you have a large IC component remaining in your portfolio. I'd still say "go for it" if you truly enjoy the challenges that come with managing, the differences aren't that stark. But if you're looking to optimize for career growth and retention, this is a higher risk path.
The "bored with her date" is great.
People back then seem to have had a lot of personality. Or maybe its just the sheer amount of people smoking back then.
It's called hegemony. Hegemony is just another form of dominance, as ultimately it's backed up by force of arms. Power flowing from the barrel of a gun and all that.
I don't know about "collaborative," but TAPoR (tapor.ca) has lists of concordance software.
I'm wondering what value you think has been lost through the book being a scan? Virtually all of the pages contain little more than handwriting, so a scan is the appropriate representation.
I don't think panpsychism is really a religious stance, it's just a logical solution to the problem of qualia. It certainly isn't testable and there are a lot of people who come to views that are loosely called panpsychism through less rigorous and more spiritual routes, but I would suggest those are quite different and shouldn't dilute the core reasoning behind panpsychism.
This is perhaps the most novel usage of a supply chain attack I've yet seen.

Not sure how that's at all relevant to somebody's labor-of-love game here.

Also, yes he was accused, but he was never even indicted for it. The grand jury didn't think there was enough evidence to even warrant going to trial. His defense claimed it was an attempt by the babysitter to extort money.

Obviously nobody will ever know what really happened, but it's hard to see how it has any connection to this videogame at all.
And any individuals involved. Unless it is a full blown covert operation run by the intelligence service of a country under embaego. In that case some of the ivvolved people will get decorations and promotions, if successful.
I've taken a minute to skim the poster's recent comment history. None of them look at all like what I would expect from a bot.
Interestingly, a service that made that use-case into a turn-key and repeatable API call would probably be quite profitable. The target market would be web marketers and social media managers who have to pump out content.

I'm imagining something like: upload a video without sound and the service would generate the exact amount of music necessary. Bonus points if you can get the music to loop seamlessly. Perhaps upload an image or series of images + text and the video would be ffmpeg'd together at a specified duration along with the generated music. Add some integration to manage the uploading to Instagram/TikTok/Facebook/etc.

It reminds me of a business I saw launched here that was an API to remove backgrounds from images. I didn't think such a service would be profitable but apparently there are enough people generating product photos for online stores that will throw money at such a service.

Answering the scientific questions brought forward by religion is not the study of religion.

The post you responded to didn't say "did" but "could". Science hasn't disproved "someone created stuff" only "humans came first" and "the Earth is a few thousand years old".

Science has said that "someone didn't have to create stuff" which is an important distinction here.
I live in a country where this is fully integrated into the police system at a national level. There are two sorts of beat cops: traditional "patrol" police and "security" police, which you pay for.

You feel fine, but you don’t know what effect it can have on others.

This is a selection bias. By definition, all the survivors of the most atrocious things can say "I went through XYZ and I’m still alive". That doesn’t make this XYZ something you would recommend to anyone.

No secrets. I get recommendations from my friends, I keep track of what musicians/producers/etc. were involved in producing music that I love, and seek out what other works they were involved in, etc. I pay attention to incidental music I come across and pursue it.

I've been doing this for decades and as a result, I have a very eclectic collection that covers almost all genres. This approach may not work for everyone, but it works very well for me.

I run three word games, this stuff happens for all of them. It sucks but I would never do what they did, it's abusive to the people who just googled your game and ended up on the wrong site.

I've had teachers and students reach out to me to say they play my game in class every day together. And parents who play with their kids every day, and adult who text their results to each other every day.

It sucks if they end up doing it on an ad-ridden site when I built an experience that asks nothing of them. But it would suck even more to goatse them.
I both find this hole thread interesting & entertaining, and I have yet to see the goatse image despite knowing about it since 2005 or so. I saw too many things as a child that are indelibly etched into my awareness and I practice filtering now so to minimize distractions.
However, context matters quite a bit! If someone Rick-rolled me with this I hope I'd have a good humor about it.

I've long wondered too. "Intention" is the best notion I've come up with.

With typing, I find it easier to enter a flow state. That stream of consciousness where it feels the prose (or code) seems to write itself.

With handwriting, I must visualize what I'm about to write. Plan ahead. Think thru things. This works for lists, writing letters, and even graphic stuff like design diagrams.

I also must really pay attention when I'm taking notes during meetings and lectures. Otherwise, my mind will wander off and I'll miss the whole thing. So I often volunteer to take minutes when I want to fully participate.

PS: Out of respect for u/jncfhnb, I'll add an explicit YMMV.
Ask HN: Do you upvote? Why or why not?
I recently realized that I rarely upvote or downvote so I decided to be more of a good community citizen and start doing so. Then came the question of what does an upvote or downvote mean? Do I downvote an opinion I disagree with even though it is interesting and well reasoned? (By some reasoning, perhaps I should actually be upvoting such comments). I'm obviously overthinking here but I'm curious so indulge me. What is your heuristic for up/down-voting?

It's a bummer to be a scientist whose work is stymied by these concerns.

Nevertheless, pumping the brakes here is sensible.

I get the sense that researchers feel a certain injustice that geopolitics is affecting scientific decisions by their funding bodies. Funding should be decided on the scientific merit of their proposals. In a vacuum, that makes sense.

Seen more widely, though, the decisions of the NIH and similar funding bodies are shot through with political considerations. For example, it would be hard for a physician scientist to attend a conference in the last few years where considerable resources were not devoted to equity issues.

My point here is that we already contextualize what work we fund by political decisions, for better or worse. In this circumstances, we continue to do so, but we in particular pause funding on research that may, in some form, be responsible for the deaths of millions of people and the disruption of lives of billions. That's a sensible choice.
How would you argue that, exactly?
Well that’s fun
ITT: people defending the actions of a corporation owned by a family worth over 230 billion USD.

Businesses should expect that society protects them, sure. But those same businesses can't then go and bribe the government to cut worker protection laws, labor laws, can't slash wages and expect that the government covers the costs of labor, etc...

If Walmart paid their workers lavishly, gave them huge pensions, didn't engage in far-right lobbying to diminish worker protections, didn't demolish the proverbial Main Street all across America, sure, I'd give them the benefit of the doubt and say that we should cover their security costs. But look at their actions over the last 35 years....they've enriched themselves greatly as a corporation, bribed the government, and told regular Americans to pound sand.

This is a different twist on that xkcd - if you haven't seen goatse before, consider yourself truly lucky, and enjoy not experiencing this particular cognitohazard.
Enh, some of the more rough neighborhoods in NYC are still far better than a lot of the favelas in Rio. You don't have to go to Rocinha or Vidigal or Vila Cruzeiro to say 'I visited Rio', just like you don't have to say 'I went to Brownsville NYC' there are so many other places too to give you an authentic Rio experience.

I've managed to never see goatse so far. Not because I'm new or innocent, but because I've learned my lessons. I don't think the 10,000 really applies to this situation. It's certainly not something that everybody needs to see at some point in their lives (or so I've been lead to believe).
There is an ancient greek inscription on page 467r which reads (translated by chat gpt)

"Whoever removes this present book from the place where the humble body of me, Theodosius the Prince, lies, let them be anathema, separated from the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, and may their portion be with Judas the betrayer."

which is presumably used to assert the ownership of the book by Theodosius of Prinkipos

There's also another inscription on page 3r which translates as

"And this [is] from Paisios, Bishop of Vothrotou and Glykeos, among others."

Just like how, for Justice(hah) Thomas, same-sex marriage is a state's right/decision, but interracial marriage... isn't.

Why do several Supreme Court Justices state that they are originalists, and the Constitution is sacrosanct, when the very people who wrote it said that it wasn't, and was to be "reviewed and updated to the needs of the times as a living document"?
