I bought an Apple watch cellular for my son, just to give him the ability to text us or call in emergency and a watch cellular subscription is cheaper than a new cell phone line. But this watch does not work with my wife's Iphone 6S and it seems that we have no choice but to buy a new iphone even though the 6S is doing fine.

Deflationary spirals are scary, at least for a debt and consumption driven economy like ours.

In theory supply and demand should force prices back down over time, but ongoing consolidation/monopolies/backdoor price fixing (RealPage, Amazon Marketplace) kinda broke the efficient market stuff.

Often completely missing from this debate is the concept that context matters. Sometimes, in casual contexts, it really doesn't matter what someone's sex or gender is, so you may as well address them using the gender terms they prefer, just as you would address them by the name they prefer. If someone looks like a woman, and the context is a casual conversation in the office, then it would be a bit mad to call them he/him, even if they don't really pass, because (a) it's rude, and (b) you don't have a way of absolutely confirming their sex. So, casually, it seems like we should treat trans women as women.

But then some contexts aren't casual, and a person's sex really does matter. It would be equally mad to exclude trans women from prostate cancer screenings, for example, when they are unambiguously male. Given what we know about male pattern offending, granting males (regardless of their gender identity) access to intimate female spaces creates risks that many females would rather not take. Given what we know about male physique and the impact of testosterone, granting males (regardless of their gender identity) access to women's sports creates injury risk and unfairness. So, in these not-so-casual contexts, sex trumps gender and it seems we should treat trans women as men.

Personally, I think a sex offender's sex is absolutely relevant to their crime and thus relevant in a Wikipedia article about their crime - and it's genuinely absurd to read about a male rapist and "her" victim, besides being grossly offensive to women in general. This is not a casual context, and the polite fiction should not take precedent.

I wonder how much the open content had an effect here, there were several fork attempts when communities weren't being heard and so rather than stay and fight they set up outside the system and fizzled away.
I wonder where you live for that to be true, in my experience everyone just complains all the time about the previous guys' craftsmanship and that's especially true in trade and engineering.

KitchenConfidential is a subreddit dedicated to complaining about shitty customers.

I don't have public examples of that one but a lot of my friends are teacher and they are an absolute blast to be around because they keep complaining about stupid helicopter parents, overbearing principals and other bad encounters. No idea what kind of teacher you hang out with. Same goes for doctor and nurses btw, put two of them together in a room and they will start complaining about patient X and Y.

At most companies the stakeholders barely know what they want. They provide a vague idea of what they want, and you give a wild estimate (referred to as a Silly Wild Ass Guess). Knowing all of the details of the problems that one is going to encounter in their old legacy system is basically impossible without spending a bunch of time up front, and you always discover more when you start writing code, so it is best to just start and iterate until you have enough of what the stakeholders want and you move on to the next disaster project.
The best AI tool in most places would be to drive you toward APIs or functionality that you haven't discovered yet. The best (non-AI) example of this is the Microsoft Office ribbon, which you can drive almost entirely by keyboard, and which makes for incredibly easy hotkey discovery.

> We want to go back to the Internet of thick-skinned people who rarely even blocked others, much less actively tried to get them banned.

IRC had channel-wide, server-wide blocks available since the olden days, as well as user-to-user blocking. The term "flamewar" is old school from these days where people got hella banned. Forums had trolls that were banned and re-banned, see: the age of the term "sockpuppet".

If anything discord is way more open than IRC in that respect. In IRC you can own a channel and ban anyone who comes from another channel you dislike. You cannot pre-emptively ban all members of another server from your discord server.
Common Music switched from Common Lisp to Scheme in 2008 (and also supports SAL for people who don't like the Scheme syntax); it uses the S7 Scheme interpreter included with sndlib.

Noooo you just give me that sad news to me. I really enjoyed watching Quake Pro League previous seasons. The finals where a big event to me, I cook some special stuff to watch those games. I'm a fan of the player Raisy, who several times finished in second place and never won the tournament. Sad that he may never have that opportunity again.

“We made it terrible for our own people to make families, but don’t worry! We can keep the party going by importing loads of people due to economic forces!” Sounds so incredibly shitty.

If an economic system works so poorly for people they have to be imported (I.e. locals who want to form families can’t) it should be dismantled.

I care about “global capital” far less than I care about my compatriots ability to form strong families. We should absolutely be worried by terrible birth rates.
If you want to sell phones, give people a reason. Have your phones do things that others cannot (and not just adding differential features with Tesla-style arbitrary software limitations).

Nobody is addressing the market that One Plus used to target. I'd be genuinely excited for:

1. Premium specs at a good price. Indulge on the CPU & RAM, save money on the physical materials. I'm adding a case anyway, I don't need expensive aluminum.

2. A rootable device (i.e. unlocked bootloader and downloadable factory images to restore if needed). Root friendly would be even better. This is even more important now that Google is removing features and cracking down on legitimate things. Try recording your phone calls in 2023, even though this was trivial to do 10 years ago.

3. Rear fingerpint sensor

4. Left-aligned camera notch

5. Headphone jack

6. SD card slot

7. Modularity, or at least a replaceable battery

8. First party support for Graphene OS and/or third party ROMs would be killer

9. External display support. 10 years ago I could plug in an adapter and get HDMI and it worked wonderfully. Now Pixel phones won't do that at all without special crappy hardware. Samsung is at least working on this with Dex, but even simple display mirroring would be great.
There is a reason corporate price gouging takes place when you see inflation narrative in the media. This is the only opportunity where people accept an increase in prices that sticks around. You raise the prices of eggs on a normal day, people will stop buying your eggs. You raise the prices of eggs when everyone is talking about inflation, people will accept it and focus on everything else.

Thanks for the clarification. By that, do you mean that you have no issue with the exclusion of 'trans women' (i.e. men who identify as women) from female-only spaces?
Fair enough - it may be that I've never experienced "real" clean code. But I've worked with many good engineers and seen this problem repeatedly. However, no matter how unclean the code is a rigorous test suite will find many regressions.
Contrarian views on many topics are not backed by facts but by emotion. A collection of knowledge is not obligated to let contrarian viewpoints with no scientific basis share the same space as factual coverage of a topic.

Icelander here. We have 90+% union participation in the country. A large portion of certain unions are immigrant workers. They have at numerous times gone on strike for better pay.

So, at least here, your hypothesis does not seem to hold.

This is probably due to the unions educating those immigrant workers on what their rights are.

> Some people fought tooth and nail to get it to not fail the build, because they didn't like that their new feature, which didn't introduce any vulns. per se, was failed.

Well, here is the problem this introduces. Who is supposed to fix this and which PM's bucket of time does it come out of? This implementation just makes it seem like the answer is "whichever team is unlucky enough to make a PR when it is discovered." The perverse incentives of that are enormous.

> You can imagine, I'm sure, how many vulns. were addressed after that point.

This tells me that the responsibility isn't specifically assigned. This seems to be the broader issue, with the audit in the pipeline a managerial attempt to get vulns somehow fixed without doing the work to figure out how they will be fixed and who will do the work.

Someone actually needs to be responsible for it and be given time to do the changes. It seems like this was not done.

I really like the points about symbols to the end, but am not sure the Music notation hits the right note. The symbols - besides Quarter note - for a rest/not playing are intuitive to almost every learner. They are just so different, so square, so alien compared to the notes in melody, that you don't make the mistake of playing a rest note in general.

Yes, it's hard to learn the symbols that involve playing something (especially clefs and timing not being linear - see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eq3bUFgEcb4 for an amazing "documentary" on notation systems), but often finding the pitch/right note is the larger challenge (for beginners) than understanding the meaning of notes. Is this because we do not teach people to play songs with only one note, but many rhythms? I don't know.

But I do not think the point of affordances in notation is a great example, especially given all the alternatives (see the video above) which, although in some cases clearer (e.g. a instrument-morphic notation), struggle in other ways (too much space used, too unable to represent timing, not transferrable between instruments, etc).

The reality is also that our mind can adapt easily in such distinct systems as music notation to shifted realities. Sheet music for different instruments sometimes uses the same clefs, bars and all, but is several notes a part (eg... the music of Violin and Viola are notated differently, such that the notes of the respective instruments more or less span the whole bar without going too far above or below for the extreme notes of the instrument). Musicians usually have no trouble learning this abstract switch, even though the affordance, is just one symbol at the beginning of each bar - the groove of playing a different instrument adapts it. I know this does not seem the case for UI, which are perhaps just "too similar" to each other and merge and feel unnatural, or maybe the issue is that while using a new UI - like the github comment selector being expanded - other sites may keep the old UI and confuse our mental model of afforances - but for music, it's just not the problem I see modelled in the article...

I strongly agree, what you are describing is what is needed.

I'm also concerned by the chilling effects we've seen lately on speech, starting with attacks on press freedom by government, but also aided by social media firms cooperating in censorship, and more recently the canceling of people who do things like protest in favor of the Palestinians, etc.

We can observe the extent of status quo social media censorship when we see how much "subversive" but legal and helpful/benign content that is popular on TikTok never got legs on other platforms.

What is the origin of the default 256-color VGA palette?
I wish I had known about ratgdo a few months ago. I spent a month trying to get a Meross smart garage door opener add on to work with the chamberlain that was already in my home, only to realize that the button was using some kind of obfuscated signaling, not just connecting the circuit. I ended up soldering a pair of wires to the button on the board in the button unit, and then connected my smart home stuff to those wires; worked like a champ. F** you Chamberlain; try blocking that.

* someone who drives frequently may rank higher for automotive products and services

* use to independently rank other statistics, i.e. someone with kids probably comes and goes more than a single person or non-child-rearing couple. Take the dataset where you know they have kids (and myQ) and see if you can detect the ones with kids using only myQ data (plus other statistics). If it allows you to infer this property accurately enough, profit.

> the engine really just lends itself to these environments

So I used to think "this would make one hell of a Quake level" in places that it would be really inappropriate to think that: government buildings, hospitals, a school or two. It occurs to me now that these were all Brutalist-influenced buildings. This is something I never ever talked about, growing up in the wake of Columbine.

In retrospect I guess it's not that I'm a psychopath, but that I unconsciously recognized that that sort of design was smack in the middle of the Quake engine's wheelhouse.

Still probably going to keep those thoughts to myself.

Can you elaborate what's "bad" on asmjit?

I wrote it for the purpose of making it easy to write JIT compilers in C++ and it has been adopted even by projects that are written in C (like Erlang). It's also one of the smallest libraries out there and has a great performance.

I understand why people don't want to use projects such as libgccjit or llvm, but asmjit is just super easy to use compared to others.
The real problem is that "clean code" is completely arbitrary and if you ask 10 software engineers you'll get at least 5 different answers because this really boils down to preferences.
Sometimes what some people think of as clean is really more "optimized for the current state or the project." that seems fine, until next month the new feature requires that "clean" code be ripped apart because it encoded too much of the current program state as assumptions in how it worked.

Be careful not to conflate clean code with premature optimization. Clean code is easy to read and follow and works in obvious ways, it isn't necessarily the fastest or most efficient code and nor does it mean it has to use deeply nested knowledge of how the system works to function in ways that are non obvious to new readers.
I've (unintentionally) done intermittent fasting for most of my adult life. Frankly, it's just mindless. I don't have to think about it that hard. When I did keto or calorie counting years prior it was basically not only part of my day but part of my life.

By having a collective bargaining agreement setting the minimum pay the company is allowed, leveling the playing field to remove exploitative measures like that.

I have the same sentiment. Though I take that "reflection" means that it was the economic model we live in/under is what gave rise to the "population growth concerns".

That's part of why it's so hard to think of alternatives from within this model.
