That's the kind of trauma that stays with someone for their whole life, and not a very nice thing to do to your kid. I hope you can make sure that he sees water as something fun and not threatening as he grows up.
Someone doesn't understand the effects of food insecurity:

Yes. It mostly sucks at everything. By a large margin
Maybe for healthcare, in a preventative sense like eating a healthy diet.

But for stuff that requires actual care like your counterexample, yeah it's 100% a government problem

Maybe for crime, diet, civic engagement, it's more of an education problem

I've indeed refused to use TM since 2020 or so, due to their auction pricing raising good ticket prices ~400%, eliminating the option of paper tickets, and making it increasingly impossible to see a show anonymously.

Know what effect it has had on them? That's right, zero. As consumers, we're not even gnats on an elephant's toenail in our ability to affect the outcome. Maybe you'd like to brainstorm another solution.
It may not be well known that VMWare Fusion supports this.

From my Macbook Pro, I can connect to it with Fusion Pro and attach USB devices to the Windows VM. I use this to program ham radios and troubleshoot my vehicle with Toyota Techstream + USB OBD2 adapter.
Rent-seeking is profiting from position without adding value.

Rent-seeking is not merely pricing your product as high as the market will bear.

Ticketmaster adds value. They just charge exorbitant fees.

...

Edit: But OK, you can argue that their full vertical integration (ticketing-venue-artist management) is maximizing their position for the furtherance of increasing their fees, and that would be rent-seeking. I don't see it that way, but I won't argue against interpreting them as a coercive monopolist, which is close enough.
The drama tweets are just an ad. You kind of want to find out who "Daniel Vassallo" is, and of course he's selling a subscription.
> And since you are the one proposing clarity and specifics here, you've just demonstrated by having these specifics in place don't always help.

What I said is not the policy of most stations. I never claimed it was. But, it is a logical implementation that would protect against bad officers. For those places where it is policy, a failure of enforcement doesn't mean we throw out the concept of law, ffs.

> So, lots of lack of clarity in between lots of bad specifics.

You know what's harder to judge than, say, 25.0 feet? Having to completely guess, leaving it up to how grumpy the officer is.
100% spot on. What I gathered from the review was that the tech itself is really cool but usability was bad (faster to pull out your phone, take a pic and google it vs the image recognition, battery life of 2-4 hrs, etc.) I also found the reviewers tone to be very mild, it's definitely not outrage-driven.

I also applaud the efforts of the aipin folk to try to build something new. They probably raised too much for it to be true but maybe if they fixed the fatal UX flaws they could regain some momentum.

Altogether it's just a bit puzzling why this whole outrage has manifested itself
I’ve had a different experience unfortunately. I had a completely unexpected stroke nearly two years ago (I was 38 at the time). I was extraordinarily lucky and suffered no long term effects, but for an hour and a half the entire right half of my body essentially didn’t exist. I could barely speak, and early on I was mostly just confused about what was going on.

Now sleep is very difficult for me (it was before, but now it’s significantly worse; I assume because it happened while I was sleeping) and I deal with anxiety off and on. It’s almost never anxiety “about” something, just an intense experience of dread. I fret about the fragility of life way more than is healthy. I do appreciate every day that I have, but I’m constantly aware that any moment could be my last. Or, perhaps worse, that at any moment my ability to do the things I love could be taken away, leaving me unable to speak or think clearly or ride a motorcycle or snowboard or do judo.

I wish I could let it go and just live my life. But it’s hard, even with therapy.
This research has no impact on Bitcoin, it was already broken post quantum by Shor's algorithm. They will simply change the signature algorithm when quantum computers become available so it should be fine.
Same thing happened to Libya after they gave up their nuclear program. NATO then bombed the shit out of them less than a decade later.
the unit I have has no storage tank. The water comes out a tube that needs to fill something. We have a regular daily pitcher that gets filled several times through the day. I also fill up larger storage emergency water camping tanks. I guess those are made out of some kind of plastic.

I heard some RO filters could pass microplastics. I think it would be cool to see if any of that pics up in a microscope. What size particles are people zeroing in on exactly?
$250 million funding from VCs for what should have been a kickstarter device.
Perhaps not, but your comment was a bit ambiguous as written. Telling an artist "tough luck" if they can't book a larger venue without TM/LN feels like saying there isn't really a problem to be solved here.

For the record, I have never once advocated for denying anyone transplant nor do I understand why people act like that's a reasonable interpretation of things I say.

All I'm saying is I would like to see more effort put into preserving our original organs and I feel the emphasis on how "cool" organ transplantation is actively undermines that.

I'm not "against" organ transplants. I'm for trying harder to help people keep their original organs healthy and functional.

There is a difference -- a quite large difference -- and I never said anything about "playing God."

I'm not religious. I don't generally use such phrases because that's not really part of my world view.
They obviously don't need to be multi-billion dollar stadiums. They can be temporary structures or outdoor areas. 120k people watched Elton John on the main stage at Glastonbury last year, twice as many as attended most of the dates for the Eras tour. While not everywhere will have a space that's suitable for a 40-60k outdoor stage, a good number will.
US cities and counties are creations of the state that they're in.

> Perhaps the rich are paying less, but a government that increases spending by 6x is certainly contributing to the problem.

Just a side note, but government spending change makes more sense when measures against GDP, not just inflation adjusted raw numbers.

Land of the free. Indeed it is.
It's way too late.
This entire controversy is so stupidly overblown.

MKBHD posts a fair and thorough review of a shitty product, which is exactly in line with what every other reviewer has said about it as well.

One guy tweets about how he wasn't fair, and how he has a responsibility to not write bad things about companies because of the size of his viewer base (wut??)

Now the entire internet feels the need to come defend MKBHD, thus amplifying the other side even more.
Google says it finds millions of hits but only lets you scroll though a few hundred. The rest they don't want to show you.
Meta was correct. "Exigent circumstances" to the 4th amendment warrant requirement did not apply, because there was no known potential victim at risk. So the cops needed to have a judge sign a warrant. Didn't take long.
Human's don't accurately measure risk, and society doesn't allocate resources according to minimizing deaths in the cheapest way possible.

Lots of people die, likely many more due to shoddy work on the drive to / from the airport. As a society we could probably save far more lives with far less cost by say changing tire grippiness standards / mandating people get their tires inspected.

The Boeing stuff is just for the most part moral grandstanding. Everyone drives around all day every day in cars that are far less safe than a 737-MAX without worrying about "reassuring those who died".

Worse yet, we let people ride bicycles to work which are far more dangerous than cars.

Scroll down to "Net demand trend" which is "System demand minus wind and solar" and compare yesterday vs last summer and a year ago
Yesterday (4/15) lowest net demand was 366 MW
Last summer, July 4th , lowest net demand was 2350 MW
Last year (4/15/23) lowest net demand was 2227 MW

You can see that last summer, with so much more "powerful" sun, the net demand never went below 2300 MW. Last year went down to 2227 MW. Today, we are down to 366 MW.
We manage to produce so much more solar in the last year that the net demand minus renewables went down by ~1800 MW. That means a few more years of improvements like that and we will have excess power generation of solar/wind at least during the day for most days. So if we start storing that excess generated power, we will start making a dent on other times of max power (since we can discharge batteries when max demand is needed).

That's the plan on how to keep lowering the net demand more and more.
I hope it fact-checks everything not just right-wing articles. Don't add bias to it or else it gets racist etc.

> There aren't any operating systems capable of withstanding the internet for a year without updates and/or active management.

I regularly update my personal systems, but when I ran FreeBSD for work, we only did kernel and OS updates for important things. Most of our machines would turn on, build and install our latest tested and patched version and reboot, and that would be the last time it rebooted until it was time to recycle it 3-5 years later.

Yeah, I looked at every update, and most of them weren't important enough to upgrade existing working machines; I guess that's active management: I did consider and most often choose to take no action, but it's still not many actions taken. That's not to say FreeBSD is perfect; it's not, there were certainly some updates that needed to go to all machines right quick. Some of the applications we ran on the other hand... It was a great day when we replaced Wordpress, because I was no longer on the hook to spend a day updating that with no notice. I would be ok leaving my current hosting for a year and confident it will be fine when I get back; other than it a disk encryption passphrase to boot after a power incident.

Mostly Linux with minimal software that's mostly finished is fine too; although I won't run it personally anymore, except in OpenWRT and other embedded systems where I don't have much choice.
Mercifully, you don't really start forming strong memories until you're about 3-4, and your brain is gloriously plastic until around 23, so, to say 'that's the kind of trauma that stays with someone for their whole life' isn't really the case.

They might be a little timid around water, but, get them in swim classes in a year or so, and they'll be zooming around in no time without a care in the world.

Intentions of attackers are irrelevant, important is what they do! Victims are not killing themselves over $300, but over revenge porn!

I would absolutely join rape support group, but there are none for men. Maybe the is the real problem. At least they should get break from school, or help with relocation!

And correct labeling would help with school bullies. Reposting some "scam" pictures has zero punishment, spreading revenge porn on other side...

Reposting dick pics of exes, or groups like "Are we dating the same guy?" are sadly way too common!
> Most of my work has been jumping into some crazy existing codebase and figuring out how to understand and contribute to it, so greenfield buildouts are just not something I've repped out, and think that's a bit of a weakness.

Without any context of the details of the work, one thing that has helped me is to lookout for scope of improvements beyond on the codebase itself. E.g. is there opportunity to provide a UI to the end-users of the code base. If so, since you have touched the codebase to contribute to it, your suggestion to work on those things to improve end-user's life may get accepted and then you have something relatively greenfield to work on. Doesn't always work out that way but sometimes it might. Another approach is building something on the side that you know will be very useful, even though nobody asked for it - helps you figure out the quick way of doing it (what you mentioned) since these are POCs and you can't repeatedly spend too long on them.
> The lesson of the last decade is that you dont need LN/TM to cover it up. Artist given choice will make tickets non transferable and just auction them off... the new starting bid will be the same as the current all in price.

That's fine, though, and arguably better. Right now the consensus among concert-goers seems to be, "man, this is all expensive, but looks like I'm getting screwed by [TicketMaster | the venue]; I bet $ARTIST thinks this sucks too". For artists who want to charge an arm and a leg to see them perform live, pricing a lot of people out, that ire should be directed at the artists, where it truly belongs.

And maybe that drives some fans away, and that's what artists need to see happen. But I don't believe that all artists who play ball with LN/TM are greedy like that. Certainly some are, and maybe even most are. But those who are not... well, they should be able to play in huge venues across the country and charge less for admission if they want to.
Products are reviewed based on their current capabilities, not their future potential. Having watched the review video, I don't think any of the points he brought up were unreasonable. It's not expecting perfection, it's just explaining what state the product is in.

Robert Smith also came down hard on this, and as a glorious result, we saw The Cure for like $30/head last summer.
Thing is, we should defend MKBHD. He didn’t do anything wrong. He did his job.
I once took my son to a fun Waterpark for his 4th birthday. Eventually we went on a very tame slide that had a "splash pool" at the bottom. It felt safe enough to let him go, so I did, watching as he slid down. After a few seconds I went too, after losing sight of him for just a few seconds.

When I got to the bottom of the slide, he was under the water with top of his head a few cms below the top. He stood there motionless, just looking up at me. I'll never forget that look of helplessness. I picked him up and he was fine luckily.

He loves water and swimming now, no trauma or anything. Don't think the danger registered with him enough, but it did with us as parents. He went straight to swimming classes a few weeks after that.
Of course they are, but putting the locus of control on external factors disempowers people. "These people didn't do as well as they could have due to poor impulse control" is a better explanation/reason than "these people have poor impulse control because of the environment in which they were raised"; the environment is not the cause of the poor outcomes, the poor impulse control is the cause, and pointing out the cause shows a path to correcting the issue.

It might be worth stressing for US audiences that the UK NHS waiting times quoted are for elective non life threatening procedures; osteoarthritis surgeries that decrease pain for people already with a degenerative joint disease, hip and knee replacements, etc.

The long wait times, 22 weeks mean average, > 63 week in 8% of extreme waits, are regrettable but not indicitive of waiting for urgent emergency life threatening required non elective procedures which are relatively prompt and immediate for the most part.

MKBHD has a finite and countable number of reviews. One of them has to be the worst. Even if this wasn't the worst product he ever reviewed, so what? He wasn't saying it's the worst product in the history of products, or that it ran over his dog and spread lies about his sister.

"The worst product I ever reviewed", even for MKBHD, is drawing from a pretty small set. Big deal, Humane. Take your lumps, fix the criticisms, and move on.
I looked it up, and as I expected, it was a .mod format. My favourite soundtracks of that era almost always had .mod soundtracks (I despised midis back then, although I guess Monkey Island was an outlier).

Ha...it's really me. :) Yeah, those mod formats were pretty brutal on sound quality. 8bit and around 5khz samples, if memory serves. It's a little difficult to listen to the originals, so hearing your remix was fantastic.
Again, great work. Really enjoyed it. :)
They should've protested outside, not disturbing others.
No, it's the same thing the article is complaining about now - constantly talking about different identity groups. Those are comedy shows so they present things through comedy.

Also, the panelists only ever talk about their own identity group. Non-woke would be talking about other people's.
Really sad it's come to this for the world. It's presented as a push forward, but it seems so unnecessary that the world be forced to arm up at this point:

Given where we are and that things seem to be slipping, I'm a little less reserved about some of my enjoyment of following the defense industry. Japan is an interesting case. It seems like Japan, the British, and North Grumann are going to build a YF23 like craft, merging the British Tempest program with Japans F-X and getting help from other nations. https://newatlas.com/military/uk-japan-italy-team-up-6th-gen...

There's a lot American defense industry is doing well, but also damn too often it takes us forever to get stuff integrated & going. The F-35 is talking about basically throwing out the upgrade plan that was in place, & going for an agile let's see what we can actually do & reassess as we go strategy. Having the rest of the world no longer put all their eggs in the US defense basket is likely terrible for us, but I admit I am a bit excited and hopeful that we'll have more than the messed up carved-up MIC petri dish model to see and learn from.
