> You would expect 1% of competitors to win 1% of competitions but the numbers you are showing are nowhere near there.

Even just one of these men competing in a women's sporting event is a problem, in the same way that even one athlete doping is a problem. It's unfair and adversely affects every other competitor in the event. So while that website shows hundreds of women displaced from the winning spots, the overall impact is likely more in the thousands or even tens of thousands, depending on how many competitors were in each event.

The more fundamental principle is that women's sports exist to celebrate female athletic excellence, and for women to have spaces to compete fairly and safely against each other, at all levels of competition. Allowing males to compete entirely undermines this.
Have to admire the chutzpah to ask for leniency since stealing the bitcoins made the US government about three billion dollars by delaying the disposal of the bitcoins until they appreciated. He only had to serve one year after living it up for ten so not a bad trade off by some points of view.
I'd love to see a comparison that included another active USB4 cable.

The original post felt like it picked absolutely awful comparison targets, just totally different classes of devices. The other cables had nowhere near similar capabilities.

But there's plenty of sub $50 reasonably well known brands that have active USB4/tb4 cables that they could have compared against that would have been actually interesting to see.

This is the real problem. It used to be free to check bags, so not everyone needed a carry-on. Now it costs money to check a bag so everyone needs a carry-on plus a personal item (in practice, a giant backpack that they shove their whole purse, laptop, and jacket into before awkwardly stashing it protruding out from under your seat and into the back of your feet).

There used to be extra room in all that overhead storage for a ton of blankets and pillows.

People import kei trucks, even though importing is a pain, so there's some demand for small trucks. If the MPG standards were addressed, I think it'd be a hard sell for a real 80s style small truck (although, I'd buy one), but a 1998-2011 style Ranger is still pretty small. Build it with a c-max/ford fusion PHEV power train +/- RWD, stuff the batteries under the bed (like the 1998-2002 Ford Ranger EV, get pretty good gas mileage and decent EV only range. Doesn't need to be huge.

I bought an electric chain saw at Harbor Freight and I love it. I'm sure it would not be adequate for use by a tree service business, but it cuts well and I don't have to fool around with mixing oil and gas, fooling with the choke and throttle to get it started, and hoping it starts at all because I only use it once a month at most, and not at all through the winter. As a homeowner, for those occasional-use lawn and landscaping machines, I'll never go back to gas engine power.

It's worth bearing in mind that:

Before 1963, the United States and other countries conducted more than 500 nuclear weapons tests in the atmosphere. During these tests, radioactive particles and gases were spread in the atmosphere.

Radioactive fallout was deposited all over the world, so many people were exposed to it. Even today, radioactive fallout is present in all parts of the world in small amounts.

https://www.cdc.gov/nceh/radiation/fallout/rf-gwt_home.htm

Don't forget to compare the fallout from your nearest nuclear power plant to the radiation from radon gas expressed daily by your nearest granite outcrops. If you live in a valley with nearby granite it's quite likely your vally "fills" with radon gas every day when the winds are still and bows clear when the wind picks up.

Unions are about digging in and fixing terms between management and labor.

Our industry is different than any other. The factory floor we work on is in our editors. The man on the assembly line building cars is a part of the machine. We are the people that builds the machine.

We don’t want to lock terms between management and labor, because as we’ve built up our tooling, we’ve changed the game repeatedly.

When I got started, I was writing c/c++/assembly. I had to write my own standard library for every project. I was allocating and freeing all my buffers. I had a qa guy, an ops guy, a dba supporting me.

Then I was a Java guy. We realized the DBA wasn’t needed anymore. I didn’t have to allocate and free. I could now use other people’s software through packages. I got way more productive. Made more money for the company, and I got paid more for it.

Then I was a python guy. We realized all this OO crap was a waste of time. We realized the QA guy could be replaced with better tooling and monitoring. The dev ops and cloud revolutions replaced my ops guy with APIs I could manage. I got way more productive. Made the company more money, and I got well paid for it.

Now we stand in front of the AI revolution. I don’t know what my job will look like. But it won’t look like what I’m doing now. I’m using copilot a lot, and I’m way more productive. I can turn around UI for the first time! I’m hoping these new Ai features we’ll make my company a lot of money. I should get some of it.

I’ve seen a lot of people age out when the technology changed. I’ve seen a lot of people make good money for their work. What scares me more than the next technology pushing me out, is an industry that stagnates around “the way we do it”. Today we are on the road to infinity. But if we stop moving forward we are on the road to stagnation.
Review: The Framework Laptop 13, One Year In
Move away as in find another audiobook vendor? Or simply retain access to your existing collection?

Audiobooks from Audible can be downloaded via the UI. They will have DRM, but it's possible to remove.

If you have audiobook files without DRM you can listen to them via any app that plays audio, but there's also at least one OSS project that aims to fill audiobook UI niche [1].

I am blown away that people still use gRPC. It's like finding somebody using CORBA or SOAP.

I really love writing with zx. https://github.com/google/zx

We have some folks who have gone wild copy-pasting random fancy bash snippets into various developer helpers scripts. Zx did like 90% of that stuff out of the box, without being a pile of chaotic custom bash.
Technically speaking we do have 240V in all of our walls, you just have to use 2 of the hot wires instead of 1 hot wire and the ground-referenced neutral. 240V 30A+ outlets accessible from the garage/driveway should be becoming a lot more commonplace in the EV era, if they become common enough companies might start designing heavy duty lawncare equipment that can take advantage of it.
FWIW, you keep all audible purchases even if you cancel your subscription (regardless if they were bought with credits or cash). So you can cancel and continue using the Audible app as you have been. You need to use all your credits before you cancel though, IIRC.

That said, it's very easy to remove Audible DRM. Each of your purchases is encrypted with the same short series of bytes. You can fetch them by uploading any purchase to this site [0] (also open source). Then, FFmpeg supports the `-activation_bytes` arg for this exact purpose:

ffmpeg -activation_bytes <ActivationBytes> -i <Input>.aax -c copy <Output>.m4b

Alternatively, Libation [1] is a great open source app that simplifies this process. It's a little rough around the edges, but it gets the job done!

Eh, you don’t want to monitor something taking a household worth of power? In the RC car world we monitor substantially smaller batteries and even charge them in a specific bag because of the risk. How long until you think it catches fire? A house down the road from me just burned down from an EV that ignited from a short, and risked all the houses around it. Meanwhile it takes 3 minutes to fuel a gasoline vehicle and you can still do it anywhere.

Something about this doesn't make sense - from the C=A case:

However, the experiments listed include exactly those 2 experiments (Test 1 and Test 3 in the table with a column titled C=A), so unless I'm missing something, "wouldn't be able to tell the difference" doesn't mean what I expect it to.

I know; they were even aired in the same timeslot (IIRC Wednesdays at 7) where I lived, and I had a prior engagement on Wednesday nights and only one VCR, so I had to pick which one to record. I settled on B5.

I didn't watch all of DS9 until it was on Netflix.

No, that's wrong. Even if my actions are criminal unknowingly to me, what puts me in jail is those actions. That my actions had consequences that were unknown to me (in this case, breaking the law) doesn't change the fact that they were the trigger of the sequence of events that led to me being in jail. After the sequence started, there could be any number of events outside of my control that could lead either to my very quick prosecution or to it being impossible to ever catch me.

Your last sentence is a counter-argument against excuses for surveillance. "The argument 'you have nothing to worry about if you did nothing wrong' means you think you know what laws in the future will be like." It's inappropriate here because we're not talking about surveillance; we're talking about people who willingly gave out their genetic data to some company. The company did not divulge the data, so this discussion is not about privacy and ethics. Maybe don't tell Facebook everything there is to know about you? Maybe don't send genetic samples to whoever to learn random nonsense that doesn't matter about your ancestry? If you do and it leaks, TS?

In practice a LVT is usually applied statistically. You run a regression on the features of the buildings across all parcels, determine a coefficient of value for various structures and usages (eg. multifamily is worth $X in cash flow for a certain size apartment, extra bedroom in a SFH is worth $Y, pool is worth $Z), subtract out the computed value of the structure, and then smooth across all properties in a given local area to compute the value of the land alone. That's what you're taxed on.

"Tax the land as if was being used for best use" is an oversimplification. The government can't realistically know what the best use of land is, or what value that would command. That's for the market to decide. But the point of an LVT is that you're taxed on the base value of the land (as measured by how much profit your neighbors are making off it), and so only usages of the land that are better than average remain profitable. If none of your neighbors can turn a profit on it either, tax will be negligible.

For me, the beauty of Beancount[0] is that it's just text files in Git. There's a web UI I use for generating reports, and a Python API with which I hacked together some import/export scripts, but 99% of my interactions with it are via Emacs[1] and Magit. GnuCash may use XML to store its data, but I'm pretty sure it's not designed around editing those XML files directly.

A ton of repetitive bookkeeping tasks become so much easier when you can copy and paste, or use keyboard macros or something like multiple-cursors[2], rather than have to click tens or hundreds of times in a GUI. Many years ago I used QuickBooks, and basic tasks like importing a bank statement took at least an order of magnitude longer than they do now.

Having my company's books in Git is also huge when it comes to auditing, concurrency, backups, and figuring out where things went wrong when accounts don't balance. As mentioned in another comment: `git diff` is a really powerful tool and it's awesome to be able to check out the books as they existed at a particular point in time. `git blame` is great for when you're trying to figure out where a number came from. Writing meaningful commit messages and comments keeps me sane when I try to remember a year later why something is recorded the way it is.

The biggest downside—or advantage, depending on how you look at it—is that there's no default or built-in chart of accounts, so you need a certain level of accounting acumen (or professional advice) to set things up at first. I'm pretty sure GnuCash aims to be plug-and-play, whereas Beancount is more akin to a programming library that you use to build an accounting system. I agree with the grandparent commenter, who said that text-based accounting is "the best and most flexible accounting experience I've ever had." But the cost of that flexibility is that there's a fair amount of DIY involved.

I share a similar experience. I’m puzzled by the common perception that Southwest offers low prices. In my case, their fares are often quite comparable to American Airlines and United. Sometimes, the flights I prefer are even more costly with Southwest. I don’t have a strong preference for any specific airline; my choice is mainly based on the quickest route with the fewest layovers and reasonable hours.

And personally I very much dislike the Southwest approach to boarding. I feel much calmer knowing that my ideal seat has been reserved.
