Not an option for leased cars.

Of course, if you're leasing, you're optimizing for something other than dollars per VMT.
If you'd want to configure this you'd probably want it as some kind of configuration in the backend that disables it.

This makes sense. In software, there's fairly small amount of really interesting work, and an endless ocean of mundane drudgery otherwise. Giving the interesting work to your high-performing veterans as a non-monetary reward is your best bet to get good results, and to retain them.
Maybe the more obvious metrics for sales enable the top performers to demonstrate that they are top performers, and therefore demand the high compensation?

A similarly-minded SWE, on the other hand, doesn't have the metrics. Either they're at a FAANG and trying to hit their less-obvious metrics for promotions, or they're instead just packing fresh keywords on their resume, and preparing to refresh Leetcode and job-hop every 18 months, to increase their compensation that way.

(I still don't want to do metrics for engineering; I want engineering thinking and working holistically, as a team -- for the interests of the company, even though leadership won't understand most of the subtle differences of what a great engineering team does for the company. The current SWE careerism grinding mis-alignments will have to end, though, once people acknowledge that we really need SWE not to be, as XKCD said, "our entire field is bad at what we do, and if you rely on us, everyone will die".)

That makes sense.
I'll also grant that one of the most effective security measure is to deny by default and only allow stuff explicitly (with a single, controlled app store in this case).
Personally I think the reasons for those security measure are not worth the freedom limitations and I guess that's why I've never been a fan of the apple ecosystem.

It is correct that if you have a car that is worth only a few thousand dollars, it is likely not worthwhile to get anything other than liability insurance.

It is very much incorrect if you have a car that is worth tens of thousands of dollars, yet can be totaled by a "hit and run" or "act of god".

It doesn't matter what I presume, it matters what the other 330 million people in this country presume.

We get the orange dump from time to time but its not like we get it often.

The one time last year? it fell on winter snow was the only time I recall in last decade+, and on glaciers this layer is still clearly visible. Not many others imprinted there, just few from past decades.
If I'm not mistaken, I saw that same 3% figure recently and didn't have much faith in the data. It was based on Google Analytics data and, for one thing, can't account for the fact that a decent number of Firefox users likely use it to avoid Google and would have GA blocked.

Ah good old AT&T with the sleazy shit

Technically it’s not a SIM lock (also called carrier lock) in the traditional sense, AT&T calls it the carrier visibility or carrier reveal program.

It’s a BS name because it doesn’t just hide other carriers from the carrier select screen, it also actively prevents eSIM activation via QR code etc. And if you need help from AT&T CS 9/10 have never heard of this term.

For all intents and purposes it’s basically just an eSIM specific SIM lock.

But you (and anyone reading this that runs into the same issue) can use the “carrier visibility/reveal” terminology to get the issue resolved faster in the future.

EDIT: Mis-wrote something, see further comments for details.

I went down the rabbit-hole trying to find out exactly what was said and meant. I don't consider Electronic Intifada a credible source (I mean, the bias is in the name!), but they are citing specific statements made by an Israeli army reporter.

That said, I think they (and you) are making things seem very different by the way in which you're quoting the statements. I wrote there are only a few known cases of friendly fire on civilians, and you wrote that the army thinks the number is "immense", which contradicts what I said.

Except, if you look at the context of that statement from the article, I think it doesn't actually contradict it. Here's the whole paragraph:

> Casualties fell as a result of friendly fire on October 7, but the IDF believes that beyond the operational investigations of the events, it would not be morally sound to investigate these incidents due to the immense and complex quantity of them that took place in the kibbutzim and southern Israeli communities due to the challenging situations the soldiers were in at the time.

The "immense and complex quantity" statement here refers to why the army says it's not morally sound to investigate the incidents. There could've been 100 incidents - e.g. 100 cases of cars bombed trying to cross back into Gaza, which may or may not have had hostages in them (which is I believe where the IDF supposedly invoked the "Hannibal doctrine").

A hundred potential incidents to investigate could absolutely qualify as someone saying there are an "immense number", while still only representing a tiny fraction of victims compared to the numbers we know for certain were killed by Hamas.

I honestly think that if your case hinges on the specific phrasing used to describe what someone from the IDF said, and which doesn't even necessarily prove anything - then your case is incredibly weak. This could've been a translation error (I couldn't find the original Hebrew version of this article), this could've been the reporter slightly exaggerating what they heard (even unknowingly), etc.

Do you have any other sources except for this? I'd love to see them.

Though again, let's be clear - there are already hundreds (possibly over a thousand?) known victims of Hamas that are verified. There might be some friendly-fire incidents too, but there are an incredibly large number that are absolutely known to have been killed by Hamas, many of which were captured on video by Hamas itself!

Trying to claim otherwise is just completely ignoring all real evidence in favor of conspiracy.
A few years ago there would be people defending GitLab for “transparency” every time something went wrong.

They even went overboard with the transparency and made public some slack conversations which for me would have made it one of the worst places to work.

100 years ago Josef Hartwig designed a chess set for Bauhaus with the same principle: "the shape of each piece reflects how it moves: pawns and rooks move in straight lines and are represented as rectangular prisms, the bishops feature diagonal lines, the king has both straight and diagonal elements, and the knights are L-shaped"

I hear you with the 2Mb/s upload, but that isn't a problem for VoIP in and of itself. What makes 2Mb/s upload an issue with VoIP is not having a good router (i.e. one with CAKE queuing support or something similar) and then getting hammered with buffer bloat making your latencies go to 1000+ ms because someone's iPhone decided to back something up (don't know why it never seems to be an issue with Androids).

^ The above is precisely my experience and is a large part of why my workplace hasn't moved to VoIP yet, despite needing the features.

Apple did not build the ecosystem alone. The ecosystem is made up of the platform, the developers and the users. Lose one of these and you don't have an ecosystem. If all the developers leave, users will leave. If all users leave, developers will leave.

I would argue developers put in just as much, if not more effort.

Apple did not build the ecosystem alone, nor does it own the ecosystem. It is merely acting as a uncool gatekeeper.

EDIT: More Israeli-source/Israeli-reported evidence below (excluding any non-Israeli analysis of evidence)

I just want to note one detail

> The "immense and complex quantity" statement here refers to why the army says it's morally sound to investigate the incidents.

The IDF says it is *not* morally sound to investigate the incidents

They have released their own data (without allowing third party investigation) on friendly fire for invasions after Oct 7, which they claim is 20% of casualties. They have not released evidence and refuse investigation of the casualties resulting from the "immense quantity" of "friendly fire" incidents on Oct 7.

> Almost a fifth of Israeli soldiers who died in Gaza were killed due to friendly fire, according to data released by the Israeli military, Israeli Ynet News reported on 12 December.

There is also IDF reporting on the use of helicopters:

> “The pilots realized that there was tremendous difficulty in distinguishing within the occupied outposts and settlements who was a terrorist and who was a soldier or civilian … The frequency of fire at the thousands of terrorists was enormous at the start, and only at a certain point did the pilots begin to slow their attacks and carefully choose the targets,” Israel’s Ynet reported last month, citing an Israeli air force investigation.

> “Shoot at everything,” one squadron leader reportedly told his men.

> A separate report published in Haaretz noted that the Israeli military was “compelled to request an aerial strike” against its own facility inside the Erez Crossing to Gaza “in order to repulse the terrorists” who had seized control. That base was filled with Israeli Civil Administration officers and soldiers at the time.

> According to Haaretz, the army was only able to restore control over Be’eri after admittedly “shelling” the homes of Israelis who had been taken captive. “The price was terrible: at least 112 Be’eri residents were killed,” the paper chronicled.

> Pilots have told Israeli media they scrambled to the battlefield without any intelligence, unable to differentiate between Hamas fighters and Israeli noncombatants, and yet determined to “empty the belly” of their war machines. “I find myself in a dilemma as to what to shoot at, because there are so many of them,” one Apache pilot commented.

And some Israeli witness accounts:

> An Israeli woman named Yasmin Porat confirmed in an interview with Israel Radio that the military “undoubtedly” killed numerous Israeli noncombatants during gun battles with Hamas militants on October 7. “They eliminated everyone, including the hostages,” she stated, referring to Israeli special forces.
That’s not quite correct, it depends on the nature of the disclosure.

Someone receiving information from an insider needs be independent of personal, financial, and quid pro quo relationships. So a random person that happens to sit next to a CEO on an airplane can trade on whatever they hear. The CEO’s mistress sitting on the other side of them can’t.

It's Wyoming, the drivers who have EVs are probably burning up quite a bit of rubber with harsh accelerations and decelerations unlike the median driver elsewhere.

Only 800 people in the state even own an EV. As one of the select few EV owners you can easily accelerate past the vast majority of the other cars on the road in Wyoming.

She's overseen a disastrous plummet in marketshare and a deliberate move in strategy away from firefox -- ff was not mentioned in recent strategy updates [1], and they've now decided to play at AI and early-stage venture fund. Skills at which Mozilla has no demonstrable competence.

The only real value they have is a fig-leaf for Google to pretend they don't have a browser monopoly, and at some point I expect that value to expire.

Would new leadership have changed this? I don't know, but keeping your job after overseeing an utter disaster and not at least once trying new leadership is incompetent.

Of course, you get utterly depraved individuals who do absolutely atrocious things, e.g. cannibalism. You might get a dozen of them over the decades. And cults that can be nasty and do terrible things.

But the moral panic is where we see it everywhere, in the thousands, when it isn't. It's like a form of mass paranoia. And it's harmful not just because of the innocent people falsely accused, but that people were not letting their children out to play, out of fear of predators, which likely damages their development somewhat.
After and Requires are only when starting the service though. If a service (stupidly) crashes when a network connection is temporarily down (someone tripped over the router's power cord?), it needs to restart until the network connection is back up.
From my personal tests, the bronze die extruded pasta isn't much more "sauce-able" than the regular ones (for regular, usual sauces like beef ragu, al burro, alla romana...).

Yes, I forgot to mention that but I did know it at the time (I still have a doc with all those terms in it that I used when talking to the reps) and yes, almost no one knows what you are talking about. Even when I got someone to “put in a request” (which didn’t work) they sounded skeptical about what they were putting in a request for. It didn’t feel like they knew what I was talking about.

The only people that did use that term or understand it (other than the rep that contacted me after the FCC complaint) were the forum support but they told me the iPads weren’t in their system.

>He also speculated that “regenerative breaking,” where tires work really hard to stop due to torque stress instead of friction braking in gas-powered cars, as another possible wearing effect on tires.
A visual is a “twisting effect” of what happens with a dragster’s tires when a driver peels out, he said. Those tires have a shelf-life of roughly a mile-and-a-half when the soft, burning rubber vulcanizes and cracks.

I'm not sure I follow what you mean when you say regenerative braking doesn't have to be put through the tires. The only reason you can do regenerative braking is because the vehicle inertia wants to keep going forward, so you allow that rotation to be used to drive the rotor and generate electricity. The ground resisting that rotation is required for the motor to have a generative load put on it. Either way it's still more you are asking the tire to withstand.
