Cutting stuff in word processors or content areas, and moving files, are two different operations that behave the same approximately nowhere, and it’s not obvious that they should share the same commands. Digging back into the distant past when I first encountered this on Win 95 (I don’t think I knew about it on 3.1?) it was indeed confusing, though of course now it seems OK, because I got used to it.

The example of whether to use the same command for ready-a-file-to-perhaps-move-but-leave-it-otherwise as for definitely-remove-this-thing-now-and-maybe-put-it-somewhere-else is more a matter of taste than one or the other representing better attention to detail.
I was curious about this because it describes what I have always heard as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, which has always been controversial and was out favor during the 1960s through 1980s. I looked up the Wikipedia article on linguistic relativity, which is apparently the proper name for it, and found that recent studies had actually confirmed the weak form of this hypothesis, that language can shape cognition. There is however evidence against the strong form of this hypothesis, which is that language can limit or preclude cognition.

So I'm left to conclude that the parent post saying that thinking in a particular language could lead to insights that wouldn't happen with a native speaker of another language, is not wrong. However it would be wrong to think that the speaker of that other language could not understand that insight, once explained. (Which is not at all what the parent said; I'm just fleshing this out for my own understanding.)

That was my point in the root comment : if a human customer service rep needed the red button to perform the job (process refund/reset account/change account owner), now you've got a worse customer experience because the bot can't take the action.
If you think running an onion service is distracting, wait until you see how distracting trying to become an "everything" app is.
As a first introduction, its more instructive to develop physical theories from physical postulates (like speed of light is constant), rather than constraining possible theories using more abstract mathematical principles.

Undergrads will not appreciate the latter, as much as they will the first. Especially, because in the third semester, where relativity is first introduced, most physics undergrads don't know any group theory.
This meta-analysis is insightful, but I found it peculiar to find no mention of southern Mediterranean designs. The German as well as Persian mention is even more peculiar since it can be argued whether the Mediterranean sphere included Germany or Persia before the Roman victories, which happened at a relatively late phase of the Iron age.

Egyptian and Phoenician/Carthaginian would have been a nice addition for a more comprehensive omni-view on the omni-spear.

None of modern UIs are built the way I’d like to work with tool apps as an amateur, nonpro, jack of all trades master of none. I only use a small subset of functions. Old programs which had programmable toolbars in 98/2k+ era were the most useful in that regard. I just set these toolbars (and key bindings) up for frequent functions and was fine with it up until when it disappeared. It reappeared in windows start menu, but that’s it. Configurable UIs are obsolete and over, so we have to explore various common denominators. So that new users could still struggle with finding menu items and power users could still struggle with quick access. Because setting up your workspace went out of fashion.
AFAICT, the one thing you get from using TLS, is a kind of redundant defense-in-depth to the site being taken over: to successfully pose as the site, the attacker would have to obtain both the Tor daemon private key, and the TLS private key. If the Tor session and the TLS session are each terminated on their own middlebox with separate security (or if e.g. the Tor privkey lives in memory on the machine, while the TLS privkey lives inside an HSM attached to the machine), then it becomes harder for anyone — even a state actor — to commandeer the site.

Also, the TLS cert would be signed by a CA, and so that CA can independently determine that the site has been commandeered and revoke the cert. (Not that I expect a CA would actually do this in a timely manner if the commandeering is done on behalf of a state actor — but that's more a fault in our current CA system than a fault in the logic of X.509 trust infrastructure itself.)

The number of job openings isn't constant over longer than like a day. What you're doing here is called partial equilibrium analysis.

That you missed econ 201?

People are demand because they buy things. Employees increase demand for other employees because jobs are created by "comparative advantage", and as long as your company is growing it's not possible to run out of that, although it does grow more specialized.

If I'm reading the middle correctly, that's exactly what happened: they got too used to selling period phones to Hollywood for a high price, and failed to note that while that business was wonderful, this is an intrinsically declining source of demand and that smartphones were busy wiping out their entire future market of 'period movies' (no one needs their prop phones for anything set in the past 20 years, soon, 30 years).

They had good cashflow, could blind themselves to the transition because they were so old, leaped at what used to be opportunities but now were being dumped on them as suckers - and that's how they wind up being the last holders of the fast-depreciating hot potatoes.
A lot of talk without any evidence trying to persuade that this fantasy has any merit. Considering that only Russian propaganda media has picket it up so far is also telling.

Do you mean, “have Gunicorn keep N workers running?” If so,
that’s in the manual (timeouts to kill silent workers, which defaults to 30 seconds).

Or do you mean “have Gunicorn itself be monitored for health, and restarted as necessary?” There are many ways to do that – systemctl, orchestration platforms like K8s, bespoke scripts – and all of them have tricky failure mechanisms that a casual copy/paste will not prepare you for.

Punitive damages: $10M false imprisonment, $25M false imprisonment and battery, $15M to her dad

Rest of damage calculation is between five and thirty million for each charge of either false imprisonment, battery or the sexual battery (unwanted hugging and kissing), medical negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress separately for Maya, her mother and family members, and for costing the family financially.

I agree that large damages could have been calculated for some perpetrators of the financial crisis.
Labor laws are seen as a plus by many people, even in a hot market like AI.

- Candidates know they won’t be showered with praise and sign-on bonuses here and now but ignored and thrown out the back after the first review cycle. If anything happens to them (let’s say, a bouldering accident), they know they’ll be given time, care, and consideration. They know they’ll have weekends off to train bouldering, too. If you know people won’t fire you on a whim, you know they’ll hire responsibly, invest in you, and encourage lateral moves when your path isn’t leading anywhere.

- Employers might want to look very attractive, but that coffee machine, that micro-kitchen is no guarantee—not anymore after the last two years. It’s nice to promise the best private health plan: I got one through a big tech company. Never needed it. But I’ve heard from people who did that it’s nowhere near what a patient would want. After that, I remember asking a small start-up in the UK if they offered anything similar. That was stupid: they could never afford anything like it. And they were puzzled… Every resident has access to the NHS, by law. They didn’t list that as a benefit because they thought they were competing with local companies. They hired a lot of Americans, and every one of them could not stop talking about how much better the care was.

Now that I mention it, it’s suspicious that all of them needed medical care as soon as they arrived…

It goes beyond that: a society with a strong safety net is better off. Countries with strong social nets have safer streets. Many candidates might be males over-estimating their ability to get out ahead in a street fight and be indifferent to high crime rates, but some have partners that might not care for headlines like “Mugging capital of the world” and “Precinct ran out of rape kits”. I like knowing that my loved ones don’t do “active shooter drills” routinely.

Personally, I left a job that was really great for several reasons. A big one was that, during my 5-minute walking commute (in the Northern Quarter in Manchester, UK), I had to walk past 50 or so people standing unconscious, wobbling, clearly high on “spice” (a cluster of synthetic “zombie” drugs so destructive and violent, the only survivor on record testified one should never try it and do something “chill, like heroin,” instead). I’d much rather live in a country where I know the emergency psychiatry and addiction programs are publicly financed, free for patients, and well-staffed. But that’s because my partner is the one working there, so I’m biased.

Experiences like that, seeing human lives wasting on the pavement daily, might seem extreme and definitely foreign to people from, say, San Francisco. Still, if you know about human tragedy directly, you prefer to live somewhere that addresses that.

What a story! Thanks for posting.
The trick to spreading pain upwards without getting fired is to communicate the situation upwards, repeatedly, ahead of time. “Hey I think that artificially imposed 6 month deadline is unrealistic”. “We’ll see”: Closer to the date: “That deadline is coming up fast. As I mentioned a couple months ago, I think we’re making good progress but I don’t think we’ll hit the deadline with the feature set we’re building. I think we need to cut features, push back the deadline or all start working crazy, unsustainable hours. And that’s not a precedent I’d like to start. What do you think boss?”. Etc.

If they don’t change anything, don’t suddenly pull all-nighters to then meet the deadline. A bad timeline was never your mistake to fix. And assuming you’re a productive member of the team, you’re not going to be fired for helping management plan like this.

> Most forests need to burn periodically

This is a myth. Mature forests rarely burn and mature forests (rainforest+taiga) include the majority of the current forests

We can accept it or keep doing it wrong, and craving for a miracle in the change climate problem. It will never happen if we keep burning the soil.

When forests burn too frequently what we have is the current situation with half of the megafauna extinct. Just because in the last 200 years we had some status quo does not mean that we shouldn't try to think better or that nature is not trying to return to the original state

It's misguided that this became known as "the potato diet". If I recall correctly, this became a thing when magician Penn Jillette (from Penn & Teller) lost a significant amount of weight under the guidance of Ray Cronise.

The concept was to choose a single-ingredient, natural, plain and boring food to eat for a few days in order to "reset" your expectations for flavour and to flatten your taste/food reward centers. Penn happened to choose potatoes, but that's not relevant. It could have been any other plain and boring food. In fact, the main goal is the re-leveling effect. Weight loss during the 24 was only a side effect of caloric restriction.

That is all very true, but are you prepared to take over maintenance of a React fork in the future? Or perhaps attracting developers will hard, using an antiquated framework 10 years down the line.

My point is, you're going to pick "the wrong framework" regardless of your choice. There's going to be issues one way or the other.

Perhaps the safest way is something like htmx, where the heavy lifting is done by the backend, you're stuck with that regardless, and if you need to do a fork, then it's a minimum of JavaScript to maintain.

Just to contrast the negativity here I'd like to say that GIMP is great software, and I really appreciate all the hard work that has been put into it over the years. It's powerful, easily scriptable, and I'm eternally grateful for everyone's contributions to the project.

macOS has had the ability to search menus for what seems like a decade. It should be a feature of the toolkit, not something apps need to implement themselves. This doesn’t extend to other UI elements (like System Prefs/Settings), but I agree that it should (and again, should be a toolkit feature).
50GB of data from a big company seems like a big nothing burger unless it's like 50GB of specifically executive email or similar. If it's actual product info, 50GB of CAD files is nothing for a big industrial project.
One was in his early 50's and playing tennis with his daughter. He went back for a lob and just tripped.

Given it is your email that is being used, that should allow for you to take over the account(s)? I'd submit a password reset, change the password, then just allow the account to live a dormant life.

That of course doesn't make it any less annoying, but it would at least stop an actor from using an account that is associated to your email.
1. By pressing cmd+x and cmd+v

2. You don't.

I realize that's not a very satisfying answer, but it's quite obviously a conscious UX choice, and IMO not a bad one. The problem is, where does the file go in between the time you cut and you paste? If you accidentally copy something else to your clipboard, do you loose the entire file? Does the file appear in the Trash or is it deleted perminently?

You can use cmd+c and then cmd+alt+v to copy a file to your clipboard and then move it to a different directory, but moving is distinct from cutting in that it's a synchronous operation. There is no in between point where your file is lost in the ether.

3. Assuming we're referring to "how do you move a file with the keyboard", you open the "edit" menu in Finder's global menu bar, then hold down "alt", at which point "paste" will change to "move item here".

I agree "hold down option" is not particularly discoverable. However, it's a standard across all of macOS for enabling alternative options. For example, holding down alt will also change "Minimize" to "Minimize All", and "Quit" to "Quit and Keep Windows" (or "Quit and don't keep Windows" depending on your default preference). Once you know this basic idea, it's consistent.

4. To my knowledge this works in all apps that use Carbon/Cocoa. If apps reimplement these views and disregard Apple's design guidelines, what is Apple supposed to do?

P.S. I think modern macOS is a poorly thought out mess but I love how it was a decade ago (up to OS X 10.9).

All these programs like GIMP, Blender, Dune, should split into two.

There should be a library that has the functionality and data structures to manipulate data. The UI should be a separate project with different people.

There could be multiple GUI's for the same project or same GUI framework for multiple projects.
