Fun fact: One of the most closely guarded pieces of paper in those offices are the tax receipt forms. Because if you can produce a tax receipt it's good as cash for meeting your tax obligations.
> the Woz is one of the few figures that many of us in the tech industry look up to and aspire to be like.

Relatable. My Woz story is from junior high school (middle school) in the late 1990s. I was writing a report on him and read two different biographies that seemed to report conflicting information. So I emailed him asking what actually happened back at a childhood science fair. And he actually responded and recalled the history that knocked my report out of the park <3. That left a lasting impression on me that you don't have to be scared to reach out to "famous" people. They're people too and appreciate hearing from polite/civil fans.
Ha! This will be one of the few "computer art" things where I won't complain that the demoscene is getting ignored. What I find really appealing about this work is how it so effectively translates traditional and commercial art and uses the limitations of the medium in the way an artist might engage with any limited sets of tools.

This is really beautiful stuff and should be preserved as a piece of cultural heritage during an incredibly transformative time in our history.
I'm not surprised to be honest because the 'new' outlook is simply the old office 365 version of Outlook Web Access in an element wrapper. They don't seem to have added local storage or local imap support but they simply sync your mail into their cloud instead.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is a ploy to offer users a 'migration' to a paid office 365 subscription later.

The old windows mail was ok even though it wasn't very full featured.
People making up ahistorical shit about the medieval period to make them seem like backwards religious fanatics is far older than tiktok. Every medievalist or early modernist I know has to start their classes by dragging their students through the basics of "no, the world wasn't backwards and then suddenly reasoned because of the renaissance."

It is a general problem with a lack of respect for historians.
Boston is a very small, dense city, only about 50 square miles. A quick check of wikipedia shows Tokyo proper is nearly 15x the size.
I'm sorry for them but, in comparison to all the deaths from fossil fuels, who cares?
> only 3 lines?

There's a fourth, the Green Line (which actually has 4 branches, B, C, D, and E, on the south/west side of downtown Boston), but it is not shown in the article under discussion. There is a link in the article to another page on the same site that shows the Green Line.
This could become a bit of an issue. There's a reason why you're using IMAP in the first place, typically.

Hopefully this doesn't apply to eg. Outlook365 as well.
Just yesterday I was thinking of publishing a heavy moderated sit or subreddit named "nuance" . A platform for healthy dialogue of subjects that normally cannot be discussed . With a minimum of say 100 words per reply, and a weekly vote of the subject of discussion for next week.

I dream of being able to healthy discuss stuff like "illegal crossing/immigration of mexicans" or "US gun control/freedom" , or even more touchy subjects like "pedophilia, as a mental sickness".

But in a place that is heavily moderated, free if bigots, knee jerk reactions and all those behaviours that online discussions are plagued with.

I am a Mexican myself, and I love being subscribed to the r/ccw subreddit (concealed carry). I've learned a lot and although I dont agree with a lot of the culture there, i am happy to try understand where pro-gun people are coming from.

There is nuance to every issue, and the only real way to make progress is to be able to establish a dialogue bringing forward and listening to all sides of the conversation.

Oh aside from "Dr. Fabio"'s blog these are some great sources about the health benefits of olive oil. Good to know, ill have to keep eating it;)

I am somewhat shocked though to see such strong opinions about the health benefits of olive oil or the lack thereof. Here I thought it was just a tasty oil.
The real problem with US (passenger) trains is basically that they are only really viable in relatively small parts of the country, but they are run by the federal government so they waste a lot of money on stupid train services to win support from politicians whose constituents should rationally never see a train service.
I worked for one of the largest banks in Australia as a contractor. When I first joined, "we don't discriminate based on the employment type". The perm staff were wonderful in that regard. Then a new COO joined. He was a fucking sociopath. First we started getting locked out of various internal sites, needing to "reapply" for security reasons. Then they introduced the email badging that appended a big "(EXTERNAL!)" to your name in the address book. Then, if anyone attached anything to an email that included even one contractor as an addressee, they'd see a big WARNING! reminding them that they were potentially leaking the keys to the kingdom to us untrustworthy SOBs. Then in November a big rumour started going around that contractors were going to be "surprised" with a forced 6-week holiday (normal shutdown for contractors was 2 weeks over the break). I politely called out the COO directly on the internal Yammer, asking him to please put an end to the rumour mill and just confirm or deny whether it was true. I said the company would be within its rights to make that call but reminded him that "contractors are people too" and given the time of year, might want to know if their services weren't needed in January. I got a bunch of support from employees (and the managers I worked for) - perm and contractor alike. Many perms were embarassed and apologetic for this outcasting of contractors (way to increase morale Mr.COO). Anyway, within 24 hours, I was pulled out of a meeting and escorted out of the building. The entire Yammer forum was nuked from orbit (I still have a couple of screenshots) and I ended up in their non-existent "black book". I know this latter point because in the intervening years I would occasionally get pinged by recruiters for roles at that bank. I'd laugh and told them I was probably still in the black book and to contact so-and-so to confirm whether I'd be welcomed back. They were always surprised when they did so and were bluntly told that I was not welcome.

Since then I've been a perm at a couple of places were I had hiring responsibility and teams that included contractors and I ALWAYS made a point of treating them EXACTLY the same. I also never encountered another organisation that was as fucked in their treatment of contractors.
The author of that post responded to a comment, saying that this employee that they want to get rid of tries to get other people to do work that is “in his job description” but that he doesn’t want to do.

I’m inclined to believe that there are no innocent parties in this workplace.

Interesting how this small business isn't able to use their bank as a simple pass-through mechanism while massive entities like FTX are able to play with billions of dollars. Know Your Customer is penny wise and pound foolish.
It’s like you’re trying to misunderstand.

But whatever the internet is for arguing. Were they ranked globally? Did they place top 8 at worlds?

If they were, and they answered 37, then I might question my understanding of math.
I worked with a guy who seemingly intentionally engineered his “bus factor” down to one. He worked on a giant inscrutable shell script that was used in all our provisioning, and it was kept solely on his laptop in RCS (https://www.gnu.org/software/rcs/)

So obviously, additions or changes all had to go through him. I’ve never seen such aggressive gatekeeping before or since. I’m still a little impressed!

Myelin is pretty damn important for the brain's function. Signals go much, MUCH slower without myelin, and there are a number of clinical disease and problems that can happen thereof. One of the main effects of B12 deficiency is loss of the myelin sheath around the optic nerve causing blindness, and the psychiatric effects of losing myelin in the brain -- in addition there are a lot of disorders where a primary effect is myelin degradation / loss. It's been very well studied.
That’s not a downside for Steam, and probably totally negates any distribution cost.

Imagine if you had to go to Gamestop every time you launched a game. They would kill for that opportunity. Steam has a captive audience who goes to their store every day.
If you call the sky blue and I call the sky blue, that doesn’t mean your interpretation of what is blue matches my interpretation of blue, it just means that we have both agreed linguistically that whatever colour we each see the sky as is blue.

Colour is a construct of the mind based on how we perceive light frequencies, not a tangible thing we can touch.

You can try federal litigation. Litigation attorneys are typically different from other immigration attorneys. There are lawsuits based on unreasonable delay, but it's highly variable and will depend on your individual case. 15 months isn't that long, but there isn't a strict upper bound anyway. The best case in these lawsuits is that the government settles or issues your benefit rendering it moot.

It doesn't strictly matter who your rep is. It can be a house rep or a senator. They all fill some form and it goes through the same channels.

You can consider supporting smaller companies that provide VPS or bare-metal servers. Whenever I explored cloud services for hosting an app for a client, I felt like the costs were excessive, the choices are bit harder if you want to support multiple locations but doable.
This is what I've done. There are a few restaurants that I've come across that have mandatory tipping, and I'll never go back. I don't think it's insensitive to believe that it is not the customers responsibility to pay for the employees.

Raise the prices, get rid of tipping, it will make everyone happier.
A lot of value in code reviews comes from knowledge sharing and collaborating on code. It is close to a pair programming exercise that many people in the team can partake in asynchronously.

I’m sorry for not answering many of your questions, but I do think it’s not worth it, at least in a professional context.

For personal use, it might be different.
I don’t disagree with you at all, but your assessment matches the iPhone’s general tech world reception precisely (if you swap out “video” with “Flash”), so much so that I thought you might have tailored it that way.
Seeking Co-Founder for YC – Industrial LLMs
Looking for a technical co-founder who can join me in creating a platform for industrial Large Language Models (LLMs). I'm looking for a world-class individual with a strong technical background, someone who embodies integrity and high energy, is results-driven, able to prioritise the business, and has an unstoppable drive and sense of urgency. Previous startup experience, communication skills, and emotional intelligence are a big +

My background is rooted in a family of manufacturers. I used to work at P&G in marketing, at a London-based hedge fund (quant + NLP) and in a cybersecurity startup (NLP research / engineering), and with over 20 clients (Including BCG and other large companies) through my data science consultancy, $50m+ value created. Over the previous 3 years, I’ve developed and led 15 AI products for speeding up the production of the covid 19 vaccine at a global Pharma company, some of which got deployed at 10+ of their factories.

I’ve had in-depth conversations with over 200 experts in manufacturing, maintenance, and reliability. Currently, there are about 25 major companies lined up, with some already sharing data and others in the process of doing so. I'm in talks with a global chemical enterprise where just one site could save up to $20m per year. Moreover, the potential for downtime-related savings is substantial, ranging from $20k to $30k per hour. A key focus for manufacturers is optimizing asset uptime and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).

The goal is to build a platform for highly specialized industrial LLMs, fine-tuned to customers’ proprietary data, ideally on their own VMs to ensure data security. Over the next 3-5 years, the vision is to create a multi-modal representation of a factory and its processes and assets. By merging data from both human and machine sources, we can provide actionable, context-aware recommendations to support workers and decision-makers in carrying out efficient repairs and preventing failures. Tasks as mundane as locating a procedure in a user manual, which once took up to several hours, will be reducible to mere seconds. Learning from historical patterns across various locations and languages, we can 10x the efficiency of engineers and technicians on the factory floor.

Moving forward, my plan is to apply to Y Combinator (YC) and raise capital to accelerate our progress. I've already assembled a team of potential early employees, experts in their fields, but I'm seeking a visionary co-founder who is ready to join me in transforming this ambitious dream into reality. Given the rapid advancements in both private and public LLMs, including evolving distribution channels and partnerships, time is of the essence.

If you fit the description and are eager for the adventure of a lifetime, feel free to drop me a message

Technically, Alaska is still part of the continental US as it's still part of North America. In Alaska, we would call the "contiguous US" as "the lower 48."
If you're that concerned, give them a generous severance package, contingent on their cooperation.

I was the solo IT guy for a marketing company for 15 years. They always treated me fairly, but as time went on, there was less and less work. They outsourced the job, and gave me a 3 month severance, with health insurance (like I was still working), contingent on my cooperation with the consultants they retained to replace me.

There were no hard feelings at all. From time to time for a decade I got the odd call with questions, and was glad to help as much as I could.
Reason is very obviously hardcoded into the definition with "moral" word.

Ergo,

>objecting to porn on artistic grounds is still puritan.

is not true
Why not be cryptocurrency-only? A lot of the seedier sectors of the online economy (adult and gambling) are very crypto friendly. Plenty of web hosting takes crypto. And the artists themselves are very savvy. I don’t see why you need a traditional bank anymore for this sort of business in 2023.
I wish they had elaborated on crypto 'just isn't there yet' further. It would be nice to know what points of friction exist.
> Know Your Customer is penny wise and pound foolish.

That's the point.
“No, the current wars are not caused by TikTok.”

But the propaganda is being spread on there, fueling hate crimes and more.

“I wonder what you are getting your source from for this claim.”

Ask any 20-something where they get their news. Sure some are getting it from legit sources like NYTimes or WashPost or the like but a lot are getting it through their feeds on TikTok.

I know it sounds like a “kids these days…” rant or a “get off my lawn” but I’m being dead serious. Every single young person under 20 I have spoken with (and I speak to a lot) gets their news from TikTok or a site like BuzzFeed or Newsweek that often will run TikTok stories.

I’m not even that old and I see it. So yeah, be angry, but don’t be angry at me for calling out “Lazy Girl Jobs and how to get one” reporting. Because it happens and you know it.

Right, this reads like classic "what's wrong with Kansas" type analysis. There's lots of potential reasons that EVs might not make sense for people in rural environments. Serviceability, range, towing capability, and maybe most importantly just expense. Up until the last year or three Tesla was close to the only option, and even though the new offerings aren't universally as expensive as a Tesla, you're still looking at new car prices, which are substantial.

Looks like the cheapest Bolt is 27k, which works out to something like $4-500 monthly payment.

Wouldn't fit into my budget, and we make about twice the median income. Not hard to imagine many, many people making a similar financial call
Steve would have always had the vision and the drive to see it through. My guess is that yes, Jobs would have started a company pretty similar in success to Apple but it probably would have taken him longer.
One way to do it is to pass a law for bidding asking for a tip on a debit or credit card charge. In other words, remove the tip line. If people want to tip, then they will have to tip in cash. Spinning around the screen is too easy and too manipulative.
Decrease in myelin layers around neurons are what causes MS if I'm not mistaken. It's essentially the insulation so that the electric signal does not travel in an unwanted way. I'd imagine myelin having a similar function in the brain, so there might be some signal crossing that is not supposed to happen?
Maybe for the c-suite
Totally true for me too. I remember the days after college all nighters always seemed to have a strange quality.
AI Pin, an OpenAI-powered wearable
Someone should read the fine article:

ESA is one of the world’s leading space exploration organizations and one of the few that is international in scope, representing 22 member states. Contrary to a common misconception, ESA is not part of the European Union and not bound by European law. In fact, ESA is not bound by any real-world law, either local or national—it’s governed only by its 130-page Convention and a set of internal regulations.

This international status grants the ESA and its staff privileges that are far superior to those afforded to its bigger sister and role model, NASA, notably the ability to maintain any internal documents as confidential.

ESA were basically granted immunity, almost like a UN agency, and of course they are abusing it.
You're going to have to get into specifics, I doubt "a growing bipartisan antiliberal movement" is responsible for the categorical removal of free platforms from the internet. This seems like a framing designed to avoid necessary context or mischaracterize motives.

If you mean, for instance, Kiwifarms - their ISP and Cloudflare refused to do business with them for reasons other than being "antiliberal." You can't blame opposition to heinous behavior, or not wanting to do business with or be associated with KF, on simply being opposed to free speech. But they still exist, AFAIK. Gab was similarly "cancelled" by their host and service providers, because the platform itself and its behavior had become too toxic to be associated with, and violated terms of service for those partners.

Again, free speech doesn't guarantee a platform - it's a marketplace of ideas and you have to convince people your ideas are worth their time, doubly so where business associations are involved. Gab was fine until they started planning an insurrection and cheering on mass shooters. Trump was fine until he lost his mind and threatened the peaceful transfer of power. Omegele was fine until someone sued over the one thing Omegele is known for. There are always limits, everywhere. There are plenty of reasons to not want to be associated with such platforms and their content besides opposition to freedom of speech, but conflating everything into the actions of an "antiliberal movement" seems like bad faith.

So I don't know. You see attacks on free speech, I see the inevitable consequences of bad actors pushing things too far.
Is it really only typeracer?
The article is by an author named "Maarten Boudry". Not "Andy Ngo". It is about demographics worldwide, not specific to Portland. It does not even mention the words "riot", "confrontation", or "Portland"... did you even read it?

It's actually a quite good article, and it does not contain any traces of either left-wing or right-wing "propaganda" AFAIK & IMHO.

YMMV, but this thread is about one specific article that is not what you are referring to. Criticizing one (unread?) article based on perceived faults of one other completely unrelated article -- and without mentioning even the slightest content from the article in question -- does not seem like a logical thing to do.
Those places would be better described by unhabitable given the boundary is rather approximate and not fixed.

Just to be clear, someone in that situation does not get a 20% pay cut unless their employer is breaking the law.

What actually happens is that the $20 in tips per night is deducted from the minimum wage that your employer has to pay you. So the difference is in the immediacy of the funds, not the quantity—there is eventual replacement for everybody working minimum wage or lower, as the amount that employers are legally able to screw the person out of reduces.

Of course, immediacy is a poverty problem, the families in this situation are living paycheck to paycheck and cannot easily handle a couple paychecks that are 20% lighter. The same people who complain about tips are usually not people who want to expand social services and safety nets to allow that to change, so it's all a little bit of a complicated kerfuffle...
