This was the "don't ride like a jackwagon" part. My bike has a solid kW output, at least when the battery is full, but I don't zip down the trail at 26 mph all the time.

Sure, occasionally I pull a max-speed segment for hoots, but I don't do it anywhere near anyone who might be scared or injured if I mess up. My trail empties out pretty nicely once you're about 5 miles from "downtown" (of the city along the trail where I enter) so it's easy to find long open stretches to hoon around if you want without endangering anyone but yourself and others on your ride.

I have just under 1000 miles of riding on this particular ebike, and about 2500 miles total, so I'm definitely not an expert rider, but I have _some_ handling skills.

Personally I like the relatively unregulated hardware. I don't need my bike to decide on a safe top speed or power. That's up to me. If I am on the trail around people, I keep it below 15 mph as a rule of thumb. If I'm doing a segment on a road trying to dodge a half-awake car driver, I very much want to be able to pull up to 30 mph fast so I can GTFO from a bad situation.

If you don't like jackwagons riding on the trail, regulate that behavior, not their hardware. Just my 2¢, opinions may vary.

> The legal definition of bribery though is

This might sound pedantic, but this might be better framed as: The form of bribery that is illegal is the kind that involves offering, giving, soliciting…an individual holding a public or legal duty.

Bribery as a concept stands on its own, outside of the legal system. The legal system defines what forms of bribery will get you in legal trouble, but does not have a monopoly on bribery itself.

To your point, that means there are forms of bribery that may be technically legal.

> He was arrested when he tried to renew his driver's license at a DMV and thrown in jail.

> His alibi was confirmed, all criminal charges were dropped, and he was released after a few hours behind bars.

Why wouldn’t they check his alibi before arresting him? Obviously it wasn’t crucial to arrest him right away because they waited until he renewed his license.

I hope this guy wins. The damage done by a false arrest and false charges is huge. The idea that someone can be charged based on nothing more than an accusation from a big company is scary.

Facial recognition seems to be one of the many, many technologies that are being oversold compared to the real capabilities. Maybe it’s time for the tech companies to be held liable for the failures caused by over promising.
Tech is small in general I think. I remember always reading about how SF was over run with tech employees. I went and looked up the stats for employment. It was like over half service related employees, the next biggest sector was finance.

The table parser in particular is really good. Is the trick that you draw some guide lines and rectangles around tables? I'm trying to understand the GraphicsStreamProcessor class as I'm not familiar with Tika, how does it know where to draw in the first place?
Agree/disagree. I wish (and maybe this is "the answer") that you could take a basic SQL query and "invert it" into composable components.

A common thing I ended up doing for some "small data" hack projects was extremely liberal usage of SQLite: SELECT ... UNION ( SELECT ... ... GROUP BY ... ( UNION ... etc ) ) ... absolutely terrible SQL, but it got the job done to return the 100 or so records I was interested in.

It'd be great if I could write me some SQL then pop it out into: fn_group001, fn_join(g1, g2, cols(c1, c2)), ...etc...

...and then have composable sub-components of what the janky SQL-COBOL syntax supports, but in a group().chain().join(...) style.

I think I keep running across DataLog as something that's recommended, and of course ProLog has some similarities.

Nothing has been compelling enough to warrant jumping off of SQL, but I really do agree with the grandparent comment: SQL (aka: COBOL) is pretty clunky and non-composable in a way that complicates what you'd think would be straightforward for interactive, non-programming usage.

The word you are looking for is responded. Brendan responded in a way they didn't appreciate. That is not retaliation or even escalation. It's disagreement.

The other party attempted to assert their right to not have their likeness published online. As they are in the United Kingdom and not in China, the statement of this clear fact and Brendan's assertion of his rights to film in public and publish that video were proper.

The other party were being ignorant of, insensitive to, and intolerant of the customs and norms of the people of the United Kingdom. You are in the wrong for claiming racism when this was a clash of cultures.

Yeah, I'd need more breaks than that. An average 2.5 minutes of Graham Norton between breaks is a bit much!

Though more seriously, when I get sick of the adverts, which is fairly soon, I just leave. There is very little, if anything, on youtube that I can't live without watching, I'm usually only there because of a link posted by friends/family or in an open forum. Other uses, like film/TV trailers tend to be embedded and there are less (no?) adverts that way.

Of course I'm likely not the target audience so they are not going to miss my attention much, but if enough people could resist the attention sink enough to just leave after a couple of adverts, perhaps there would not be so many of them before+during+after each clip. The adverts tend to be of low relevance too (often things like “this miraculous heater” scams, or yet another blast from Temu). When they claim tracking means you get more relevant adverts, this doesn't mean you get less adverts if they don't have anything relevant in the paid-impressions-waiting-to-be-used queue, you'll just get a few maybe relevant adverts per 1,000 instead of less, you'll still get the 1,000 with the remainder being less than relevant.

It sounds like you definitely could reduce the emotional/mental load of traveling by going directly to your friends and staying with them (if/when possible). This simplifies things like lodging, activities, etc. since they can/might be more able to take care of those things for you.

Travel is so broadly encompassing but I absolutely empathize with the challenges you face. Hopefully you find your own way to look at the bright side of traveling (the experience at the end of it)!
It gave me a better understanding of how computers really work. If you already have a CS degree that might not be the case, but he has a point and the experience opened a whole new world for me. Something I assumed was too difficult for me for a long time. Add Valgrind and watch the assembly while stepping line by line, taught me so much.

Why C as opposed to other languages? It's portable and very simple on the surface, there's not much to it but difficult enough to be a teachable opportunity.

I used this many, many years ago but switched to Borg[0] about five years ago. Duplicity required full backups with incremental deltas, which meant my backups ended up taking too long and using too much disk space. Borg lets you prune older backups at will, because of chunk tracking and deduplication there is no such thing as an incremental backup.

It's pretty easy to see who the seller is.

If I am buying a big name product that is likely to have a counterfeit problem, the seller is usually going to be amazon direct or the manufacturer anyway as big products are stocked by Amazon directly, the stuff that isn't, is usually more generic or niche and not usually a type of product that matters since it's something fairly generic anyway, i.e a dish cloth, tape etc.

I am not sure if it's just less of an issue buying from Amazon UK or it's the type of stuff you are buying, but from what i've read it seems like it's mostly an Amazon US issue. Most things in the UK are not from third party sellers unless you are buying a generic item that is effectively dropped shipped from AliExpress like a fancy dress dinosaur costume.

The OP said:

> For example 1Password deliberately crippled perfectly fine password sync for users

Which happened from 1Password 7 to 8. So yes, of course I mentioned that transition. That is the new version. But that’s the same for all previous ones; they never forced you to upgrade, old versions didn’t stop working on their own. They might have stopped being compatible with certain OS upgrades, but that’s not deliberate crippling or forcing updates.

What’s your point? You replied but offered no argument or rebuttal. All you’ve done so far is disagree without advancing the discussion, which is a waste of time for everyone involved.

This is the critical key to the whole thing. Currently, I basically apply updates as soon as they're available (with a bit of delay for major ones like new macOS version updates) but if I get burned a few times I'll go back to waiting carefully.

The law is not that binary. The law says it's not allowed _unless_ you have a "legitimate interest". What qualifies as a "legitimate interest" is up to a judge to decide.
I don't know any non-programmers who can successfully use it to make anything that isn't a glitchy mess. It's not really a low code environment. It's a "code but it's in squares with lines connecting them" environment. You're still writing code, but unlike some systems which can successfully use this model to try to make some parts easier, it's made much harder because of how much hidden, weird, and counterproductive stuff Max does. I had a much easier time teaching people to use ChucK or just C. Of the people I've showed Max and something else, everyone preferred whatever the other thing was.

Tesla keeping pollution credits to themselves, off the open market = good

Telsa selling pollution credits to competitors to stall their EV programs = bad
Exactly. All the products we make are focused at the integration and system level because it's crystal clear that's where enormous amounts of issues arise and unbounded numbers of 11th hour fire drills occur. The various industries who've had multiple product cycles with lots of software are starting to figure this out, but it took awhile.

Despite how obvious it is with a little outside observer perspective, the "perfect bricks" way of thinking is pervasive because that's how the builders and supply chains are organized.
And that’s why we can’t have nice things.

It only works for certain classes of products. A game has decidedly few copies (will just be your own saves across multiple devices), and is already serializing in a singular high-level format.

But it costs money and effort to decrease that. Money and effort that cannot be spend elsewhere.

I'm quite certain that efforts such as "taxing kerosine on international flights", "charge VAT for flights", or even "removing all subsidies for beef and pork production in the EU" have a much larger effect. So if we can spare our effort or funds only once, those would be much more obvious places to start.
