I think nocoiners completely miss this aspect, the media too

many devs will always post their applications on blockchains, and simply do system design conducive to that environment, because web 2.0 cloud models do not compete in pricing especially if you have a burst of activity

many devs bring their whole audience over, and the audience is willing to pay to update the state of the application with no overhead cost to the dev, which is also impossible to implement in web 2.0 cloud offerings, aside from just searching and hoping for free tiers

who cares if none of those applications match your use case, just call it the entertainment sector then and you still have value and utility to someone, that self perpetuates
...versus the tens of thousands (maybe hundreds of thousands by your latter definition) of such combinations for Android. I mean c'mon it's not even close.

yeah but that's much different, on a puzzle game with an explicit goal of optimising, even a leaderboard and stuff.

I myself got pretty far on the Turing Complete leaderboard as well and I enjoyed it really much - but my comment was pretty much aimed at "general-purpose" games, not puzzle games which have the explicit goal to be optimised.
I guess the fun part was finding out your real great-grandfather was a Portuguese sailor on a visit to the port of Bristol (or whatever).
Generally, reviews should be helpful and move the project forward. Sometimes a discussion is required because disagreements do occur. The appropriate way to handle it is to respond to the comment, explaining your case (rationally and without emotion), allowing the record to reflect the result of the discussion. This is important because it sets a standard and minimizes the opportunity for someone to jerk you around later because the standard was set in an earlier discussion.

That said, it's important to pick your battles and be right on issues that are important to you. I've worked on a lot of different projects. The people who set up the project pick the standards and sometimes that's me. If I arrive on the project later, I typically take the stand of "When in Rome...". Watching the existing team's standards and adapting to that is a good approach most of the time because I'm doing my part to moving the team forward with consistency - and you'll often hear about the value of consistency.

Often, no one is wrong on these things and you just disagree. If you lose, disagree and commit. However, by having these discussions in a healthy way helps you and other learn and can be fun.
Google probably prefers when you don't fullscreen the video; More ways to have your eyes drawn to ads, recommendations, and comments in the periphery. Maybe this is why they added the different "bigger but still not fullscreen" modes a few years back.
Admittedly I didn't watch the video. Does Louis state that it is an open source software? If not, then we should stop requesting every non-OSS to be OS - this is just silly. Creators/project owners should be the ones deciding on the license. Vote with your download button, not your entitled rant.

If he does state that it is open source, then the rant is at least partially justified, I guess. FWIW, the website doesn't seem to claim it to be OS.
I've discussed this with numerous different friends and colleagues over the years, and then most see time as linear if not quantified but very different when you start asking of periods. So many see years as cyclical, and understandably hours as well. Weeks are often tabular as your year is.

One of the more interesting visualizations of the year was a colleague who saw it as a coil, so cyclic but also with a forward motion.

Seasons are also interesting: my seasons are wedges of the cyclic year, but som I've discussed this with have the seasons removed from their representation of the year and have seasons tabular instead.

The big question is what do these sell for? Cost dictates how broadly these can be used.
That's the original intent, but there's nothing stopping you from enabling it whenever to try to get the absolute max possible out of your battery. Low power mode does sacrifice quite a bit of functionality by default though.

Personally, my 15 pro can do >72 hours on a single charge WITHOUT doing stuff like this, even starting at 80% (note: mostly standby, no always on display, with ~3h screen on time total). The 80% limit is definitely something I'll be using virtually all the time.
How exactly is Apple good at Interop?

Their whole market strategy is the exact opposite. They only implement standards when forced by regulations or overwhelming market forces.
I first learned about computers in 1970 when I took the only computer course my college offered: a one semester course of Fortran. In 1977 I passed the bar and became a trial attorney. In 1978 I bought a Tandy Model I. I spent lots of hours developing expertise in a courtroom over the ensuing 40+ years. But my love was playing with programming (mainly basic; dBase; FoxBase; FoxPro; VB; VBA).

I spent a huge percentage of my non-working life programming. I created a lot of software I implemented in my own firm, starting with a timekeeping/billing program in 1981 before computers existed in law firms. In many ways, my firm was my "home lab". It was what brought me joy.

I retired from law in 2019 and I now spend 100% of my free time learning c; bash; linux; networking; virtualization; with assembly, rust, lisp, and more on my agenda. And I do it for the same reason I always have: because playing with computers is a blast!
They don't let people put bags in the first class area unless they're in first class. I think it's more about making people feel special. But honestly, isn't it special to be the people who spend the least amount of time crammed into a tin can?
Where I live we have typhoons.

The last typhoon disrupted gasoline supplies so bad that all the gas stations around were closed for 2 days due to lack of delivery.

Power grid didn't even so much as blip once.

It sounds like gasoline cars are the ones that aren't ready for prime time.
ah, it's the old "I'm the victim here!" ploy.

Someone applauds violence, and then when anyone calls them out, complains that they're being threatened.

Either that, or you're just nitpicking at words.
Cameras, sensors and your privacy

Governments, companies, science and research institutions are collecting more and more data in Amsterdam's public spaces. For research, a commercial purpose or for better performance of a government task. For example, panoramic and 3D images are being taken to capture the state of Amsterdam in 360° photographs. The images are taken with a special camera mounted on a car. The 3D recordings are made with so-called LIDAR scanners. The City of Amsterdam has been involved in creating panoramic images for some time.

We find it important to protect the digital rights of residents and visitors. That is why we are the first Dutch municipality to introduce a notification requirement for sensors in the public space. Residents and visitors will thus know who is collecting data where via sensors.

Report your sensor

Are you a professional party and do you collect data in public space via a sensor? Then you must report this sensor to the municipality. Your sensor will be included in the sensor register and appear on a public map.

Report sensor
Sensors on the map

This map shows the location of the sensor. You can also see what information the sensor collects and who owns it. You can also see if the sensor is processing personal data.

Yup, I use fsquirt.exe to transfer small files between my phone and laptop. But I have to grab a usb cable for anything bigger than a low-res picture.

Also about 40-percent of homes in America have no mortgage on them. If you own one of these homes (and never took out a second mortgage) selling it and moving to a house of similar value is not really effected by interest rates.

This is way more the case for older people, but still possible.
True of nearly every city on the planet.

Still less than 70 years ago, which is more relevant.
The problem is that they are still boarding basic economy last, and those people are likely to be in middle seats. So people who boarded aisle seats ahead of them will have to get up and block the aisle to let them in. If they found a way to board the middle seats from back to front, that would make things better, but there's no way to order folks like that within a single group.

// in reality one passenger fumbling around looking for a spot for their carryon bags can easily add 2 minutes

Yes but in the new model this delay is on top of an improved baseline so you are still 2 minutes ahead on average.

A good indicator that this matters is that United, who presumably knows their business better than you and I, is excited enough about it to implement the change.

// Nobody needs more than that for personal items that may be needed during the flight.

The goal of carry on isn’t for me to access personal items. It’s to enable me to get out of the airport and be in the taxi, half way to my meeting, while you wait for the carousel.
Wow, this is the thing I have been researching for a long time. Now I'm on the way to implement this!
Apple moved focus to mobile. Found mad cash money there to be made and neglected their existing ecosystem.
Why would you use an 18v chainsaw when 80v is the new norm?

Jaws of Life are now battery powered instead of off a hydraulic system.

There are certainly pro grade electric devices; industry has been using large ac motors for a while.

Gasolind is certainly not easier than electric when talking about commercial vehicles with frequent starts and stops and heavy loads (a good reason why many fleets are more likely to use turbo diesels for the last 20 years). A diesel electric locomotive is a great example of heavy industry (and 2 very , and guess which system has higher maintenance costs.
Once precision medicine allows to create viruses tailored to kill or disable single individuals, the world is going to be a very very dark place.

I don't think it's a surprise that COVID normalised it for people to hand over their genetic material to anyone (swabs) without any option for refusal (no test? no live).
> Personally, this sort of arms race is only going to cause me to not use YouTube

This is by design. They’ll either get you to pay or leave.

I personally pay for YouTube because I get a lot of value out of it.

But I feel you. I abandoned both Reddit and Twitter pretty abruptly after their shenanigans. I was a heavy user of both until that point.
Yeah, I was a bit imprecise there. I didn't expect a difference of exactly 32, but I did expect something of that magnitude.
Nah, the Model S (especially the plaid) is their flagship. Even if economically it doesn't make too much sense, it elevates the brand.
I would approach this as "let's help Louis achieve his goals while staying true to open source" not "burn the witch". Just something to ponder before piling on.
Oh sure, I put my phone in LPM sometimes when I know it's going to be a very long day. But why would someone put it in LPM when it hits 90%? Is that referring to when it charges up to 90%, or when it's in use, unplugged, and is "down to 90%"?

I have not tried it but is there some reason you can't simply record from an headphone jack? I thought there was some Linux app that would just do this.
Heavy Duty means something for commercial vehicles and it's not gasoline, it's diesel.

Yes. I had to install one on a Volvo 760 wagon that came without. Also installed a center-mounted stop light for it as those were still optional/just being introduced.
Yes, he did call it open source. The site seems to be taking an "ajar source" approach of never mentioning the source code at all.
You’re free to swap files via regular Bluetooth with an app that supports it.

AirDrop is fast (actual transfer happens over WiFi) and easy - makes it so you don’t need to know anything about Bluetooth to use it. It’s a challenge to find an alternative app with the same level of functionality.
You tend to achieve less value if interest rates are high, as the buyer will typically need a mortgage, and the pool of prospective buyers decreases as borrowing costs rise, and supply and demand does the rest.
Wow - it sounds so simple. Will read more about this (hopefully on the Instacart blog if it exists there!)

I'll echo others, VB was my start. The year I decided to take programming in high school, they switched from Java to VB. I had so much fun in that class going above and beyond in all my projects.

When I was a kid, I used to sneak off to the computer lab and just play with the form builder. I had no idea how to code at the time but it was fun making mockups
While we're all mentioning alternatives, I use croc quite a lot, which is good when sender and receiver are on different networks.

If I can be cynical for a moment I think it's not only culturally relevant, it feels like one of the main indicators of what culture is. If it's represented on Netflix, it's culture. It's a part of peoples identities more than anything else.

Blame the bible. God created the world in six days, and rested on the seventh, which was Saturday.

The real question is why the weekend was defined as straddling the last and first days of the week. Weird.

For any number of reasons, I'm not willing to put up with Google's advertising or business practices. I also don't want to give google any money because a) they really don't need it and b) google only gives a fraction of the ad revinue to creators.

Why use YouTube then? There really isn't much of an option. Some creators I subscribe to don't post anywhere else. Some do post on peertube or LBRY, so I'll watch there if available.

I view it the same way I view piracy. I'd be willing to pay for more media if it were available, from a company that won't spy on me, without DRM, and my money went to the people that made the thing instead of some rent seeking business sitting between me and them.

I don't have a problem paying for stuff, I have a problem with paying Google specifically.

And ultimately my use of ad blockers accounts for an infinitesimal fraction of a percent of any one creator's ad revinue. It costs Google a lot of money to serve the video, and the creator earns only very slightly less. If there's a sponsored segment (as there always is these days), that more than makes up for the disparity.

It hurts Google and is virtually unnoticeable to the creator. Sounds good to me.
This is software development. I wouldn't hire someone (remotely) who couldn't guarantee that they're on a good connection. It's part of the job.
Redis Insight: GUI App for Redis
The reason why the arsinh transformation is useful (and this is not mentioned in the link you posted) is that it is the optimal variance-stabilizing transformation [1] under the assumption that your data is contaminated by a mixture of additive and multiplicative noise (the same way that the log transformation is the optimal variance-stabilizing transformation when your data is contaminated only by multiplicative noise).

Read the Wikipedia article for a more formal explanation.

Why buy Rivian when you can buy RYVBIAX?
And get off my lawn.

Few forces favor convergence and standardization in open source. After a few decades of this, we have far too much duplicative stuff.

It's really hard to clean that up. At one time I tried to get the 6 or 8 Python packages that parse ISO8601 date strings standardized. All of them had bugs. It took 6 years of bikeshedding discussions.[1] Issue filed in 2012, patch applied in 2018. For something that's a few screens of code.

So I was really disappointed in Firefox as my second browser (first is Safari; yeah it's the platform lock; Apple should be forced to open it up). So few days back I decided to set up on my new (2020) MacBook Air and this time I installed Brave.

Goodness! It's a dumpster fire. Wallets, crypto, and what not - all over. I scrambled around and disabled, fixed some and all that but then things kept happening and I panicked and immediately uninstalled it clean and then installed Firefox. I will keep cursing Mozilla for actively and consistently ruining Firefox but this really is the better browser out there, even now. Unless there are others that I have not tried. Vivaldi, Opera? Are they good now?

Is Camino living in shape or form even now? I would not mind a Mozilla blessed theme/extension pack that turns Firefox into Camino of olden times. But the best would be forcing Apple to open the OS' browser gates.
From a decision-making standpoint it seems difficult to argue that you made the wrong choice. At the time when the $99 kits were ubiquitous, 23andme seemed like a solid, reputable company.

I am interested in genetics, but I didn't trust google, and I trusted a google spouse company even less (it's like John Lennon's Google, and Yoko Ono's 23andMe, when I didn't trust Lennon to begin with) and my data hasn't been spilled. Half of you are thinking of all sorts of epithets to call me, but fact is, I was right about 23andMe. From a decision-making standpoint, slam dunk for me and anybody who listened to me. It was not an unusual position to take. "What. Could. Go. Wrong?"

(I'm fully aware they probably already have my data from numerous blood tests I've taken from normal medical checkups, etc. but what could I have done about that?)
Waste of time and being combative with passengers with wildly inconsistent enforcement of bags that touch the edges, or were compliant sizes until the airline changed its rules, or are currently compliant with other airlines' allowed sizes, and fit in the overhead anyway in the correct orientation because mainline airplanes have basically two actual bin sizes (and bins in regional planes generally can't fit the allowed carryon dimensions anyway.)

Really, the only stupidly large carryons I see people trying their luck is the occasional 60l+ hiking backpack, which are obvious enough that gate agents could force them to measure.
I don't love Netflix, but what do you mean "the interface is literally an ad dashboard"?

The thumbnails you click on take you to the show. The fact that they A/B test the images doesn't make them ads. By this logic, a dictionary is chockfull of ads for words.

Perhaps not entirely powerless, but nearly so if they want anybody to actually read their book, or to make any money on it.

Big authors like Sanderson and Doctorow can pull it off, small and new authors, if they want to build an audience, really can't.

Apple confirms swiping apps closed causes iPhone to slow down and lose battery
How about writing a JIRA plug-in. You can find an area where it is lacking and write a plug-in for it.

Alternatively, start with an open source bug tracker. But offer to host it, and create improvements for it. It's been a long time, but you can set up something like bugzilla. (There's probably a more modern alternative out there).

Here's another idea. Start ups don't have a lot of money, consider receiving equity from the start up every month. Instead of a monthly rate, you receive shares every month. You will probably need a lawyer to set up this contract and there is probably a problem with this idea. I don't think you can receive ISOs, unless you are an employee, so they might have to hire you too, while they are using your bug tracking service.

A lot of superfluous charges are put still put for money transfer today so even something like patreon can cost 8-10% of what they recieve. How can they charge such a large percentage on money transfer that is mostly bits.

I wonder if this is common in other countries too?
