My State isn't very big.

If everyone started making tire taxes across the country, maybe that'd be a problem. But no one gives a care about just one small state making a tax like this.

That's not how physics works. You need deep tread to safely expel water and/or deep treads to make snow-impressions (if its a snow tire).

as someone that grew up on roblox (i.e. has been playing semi-consistently for ~11 years, since elementary school), insofar as any of that is true, none of it is new.

If anything, the robux -> profit conversion rate was much worse back in the day (iirc engaging in it at all necessitated purchasing the highest subscription level, the now-defunct `Outrageous Builders Club'), and it was far more common for kids to waste their parents' money on `limiteds'.

the most widely-implemented roblox cheat feature (short of actual lua execution) was a button that would reskin you and another player to naked tones, then teleport their model to a doggystyle position. we used to sit around during sleepovers and scroll the catalog looking for games titled [18+ s3x rp] to mess around in.

on the flip side, fiddling with .rblx studio taught me lua and rudimentary 3D modeling at a ludicrously young age, and I made similar online acquaintances who went on to do very well with their learned skills.
Hamas today is exactly the same Hamas that was voted in.
If elections were to happen again, Hamas would still get voted in, that's why they haven't happened.

That's the reality which anti-Israelis are determined to ignore.

% of the popular vote doesn't matter. US presidents also get voted with less than 50% of the popular vote.

Their platform isn't and never was peace within the 1967 borders. Again that's the reality anti-Israelis are determined to ignore.

They got the userbase and importantly took a massive amount of money at a multibillion dollar valuation, but now have to monetize so the product will get worse until the userbase goes away. It really is a Ponzi scheme all the way down
Elite universities don’t weed out to get rid of students, they need a super high graduation rate for the rankings metrics. But they can use weeders to get you to change your major to an easier one.
I think it goes something like.

1. MVNOs allow the big carriers to maximize the utilization of their network without sullying their own brand image by having people on their lowest tier plans with de-prioritized traffic complain about the brand. Imagine if AWS sold preemptible EC2 instances under a different brand.

2. Successful MVNOs tend to grow their customer base, often at the expense of the big 3 and get too big. Too big to be useful as a sink for preemptible capacity and too much of a revenue cannibal.

3. This prompts one of the big 3 on whose infrastructure they operate to buy them out thus regaining the market share.

4. The big carrier then extracts more value from the in-housed MVNO by raising prices.

5. GOTO 1
Typically, covenants are meant to cover issues more locally than zoning could, like a permanent easement for the benefit of an adjoining property or setbacks for all the properties on one street to achieve a particular aesthetic. You could make them zoning laws, but they would be rather complex and have to refer to particular parcels.

They can be removed, but typically you have to prove that removing the covenant isn't negatively impacting another property owner for which it was originally added. It can be done by unanimous agreement of the property owners, or more commonly, by just buying up all the adjoining properties.
Sure. In this case specifically AWS is attempting to transfer 70Gbps through a 1Gbps pipe. Not a rounding error.
The UI of the kiosks are quite blatently designed to try to sell you more stuff than to make ordering easier. Give me the same interface you give the employees and I'd be a lot happier.
Not having access to something does not grant you rights to it.

You probably know a lot of things I don't, and some things that I can never know. That does not allow me to compel you to tell them to me.

Yes, even if I really want to make some impossible to define metric, like efficiency, look better.
Great idea, thanks for putting it out there. What stack did you use?
very nice reply. Along these lines, one problem many founders face is when professional management (new investors, board members) focus mono-maniacally on repeatability, unit economics, and generally ultimate fungible staffing. One way this is achieved (sometimes even deliberately) is to buy the cheapest, most easily replaceable inputs and do anything necessary to make the new configuration work. Staffing is a key tactic come hell or high water. This can cause obvious cultural issues.

This is a classic ethical dilemma. Self-driving cars will kill some amount of people via malfunctions, accidents, etc. Some amount will be children. Should we ban the development of the technology? What if it only killed 1 child? What about 10? What about 100? How many dead children is the benefit of self-driving cars worth?
Very happy with US Mobile.

$30/mo unlimited everything, and I average 50gb/mo with tethering. Uses both the Verizon and T-Mobile networks, best of both worlds. And very happy to not be paying $100/mo anymore.

That's proven now, but it wasn't always known. Better to make money letting others take risks first and then buy them once they've proven the market
Even if I take your premise the non-GAAP metrics don't count (we'll ignore the revenue aspects) and excessive is underdefined there is one solid take away: the megacorps like Nash Finch the like said that higher material costs drove their price increases. This is shown to be false (https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/p162318supplych...). So they lied. Which group will you believe given that? The megacorps like Nash Finch or the FTC?
I’ve only ever known nonplussed to mean indifferent and unbothered.
To follow: this is the reason the FSF has specific guidelines on contributions.

https://www.fsf.org/bulletin/2014/spring/copyright-assignmen...

> In order to make sure that all of our copyrights can meet the recordkeeping and other requirements of registration, and in order to be able to enforce the GPL most effectively, FSF requires that each author of code incorporated in FSF projects provide a copyright assignment, and, where appropriate, a disclaimer of any work-for-hire ownership claims by the programmer's employer. That way we can be sure that all the code in FSF projects is free code, whose freedom we can most effectively protect, and therefore on which other developers can completely rely.
Relative to US cities, housing in Tokyo is generally pretty affordable. High end condos in the most hot/central parts of the city are still pricy but that’s a small percentage of available housing stock.

The places a friend of mine who lives in Tokyo has rented over the years have all been considerably nicer and sometimes larger than what one would get for the same price in SF, LA, or NY while still being in walking distance of essentials and a short train ride away from any part of the city.

Windows XP did that way before smartphones came up with it.

We are unfortunately prisoner of the masses. The smart phone is a 99% device which means it caters for 99% of the users. And it's probably not a good idea letting 99% of the users anywhere near the thing based on the crap I've had to unstick over the years.

We can of course choose not to participate in this still if we don't want to.
I don't think "counting taps" is the point here. Virtually all UX research ever indicates that any friction added to interactions usually means losing customers at the margin. Maybe customers don't cancel the current transaction, but some of them are still going elsewhere next time because they don't want to deal with whatever friction you've inserted.
It can and the reason is plainly obvious regardless of how difficult the answers are for you to accept. A restaurant is at the apex of the supply chain, and reflects all of contributing cost increases, direct and indirect. Whether it's higher fuel prices, higher labor prices, higher equipment prices, higher real-estate prices, higher food prices, higher shipping prices, higher taxes, higher healthcare costs or any other increasing cost the restaurant has to cover it all, or go out of business.
The idea has been discussed. The main problem is that Mastodon is a zero-trust environment, and we can't trust the other server to send us the correct preview.

But egress fees only apply to S3 transfers outside AWS?

So which is it? Data transferred to the Internet? Or data processed internally?

What's fneascinating is that build -> scale -> maintain is a similar lifecycle to a human: create and pivot quickly with fluid intelligence and high energy at first, then settle into your lane and grow, and then use your accumulated domain-specific knowledge and wisdom that no one else has, at a slower pace.

But the progression is not necessarily the same time scale for the product and the person. Maybe it was in the past, before computing.
lovely, thank you!
Customers have several burger options beyond McDonald's. That's good old capitalism.
Ok,

I have heard a lot of good, and bad comments, so I want to clear some things up.

First of all, we are using an OpenAI based back-end, we are in the process of developing our own LLM for the task of text fitting.
Secondly, the LLM in our approach is currently only used for text translation. This meaning, we assume the LLM dosnt know anything, and thus before the users input even reaches the LLM it has to hit a couple other models which determine if the statement is a fact or not, then an intermediary text analyses model to extract understandable queries from the text which can then be used to search information about the topic from a DB (for example, Google FC API, or a custom dataset of documents known good).
After that process, all the data is presented to an LLM which can then fit the known good data into the context of the users input.

The LLM itself is never trusted with data.

Of course for a system like this to work, we would need access to a DB and those intermediary models, which as you can guess, will take a while to build and develop.
For now, we are pushing our beta without this system but a dumbed down non-optimized (and definitely flawed) version to test scalability and fix bugs, test security, and check scalability for our back-end platform.

In case anyone was wondering anything about my credentials, I am one of the lead back-end developers working on the project. I am also free to answer any reasonable questions anyone might have about Factful.
The reason the Palestinians don't have elections is that Hamas would get voted for again. It enjoys popular support. This 18 year ago and half the population thing is bullshit. Half the population doesn't get to vote anyways when half the population is under 18. That's how democracy works.

On the Israeli side the reason Netanyahu and most Israelis object to a Palestinian state is that it's clearly just going to become a base for launching attacks on Israel, just like Gaza. Palestinians don't want a two state solution, they want to destroy Israel. They say it explicitly in every survey. Go watch videos on YouTube of Palestinians in the west bank interviewed about this question prior to Oct 7th.
how is this proof of live ingesting github?
It's stratification. People using their $15/mo plan would talk about how t-mobile as a whole is garbage and turn off higher end customers.
[Indie migration away from Unity accelerates]
Not really. The reason those orgs use O365 is that there isn't a better option with the same ROI and staffing requirements. It because a defacto standard because no one offered anything better.

(I will add I despise it to the core, but I know why people use it)
You can CTRL-F here https://developer.android.com/reference/android/Manifest.per... for "signature" and view permissions that are only granted to apps signed with the platform key, i.e. built into the system image as part of the AOSP build process.

I don't understand the joke. Is the premise that priests are the opposite of greed?
It tends to trail real value in two ways. One, it's not assessed continuously so it tends to fall behind during inflationary and demand curve events.

Second, it's very unpopular to have the value overestimated or even objectively correct. The people in charge of those decisions are elected officials and property taxes are a sure way to piss off your constituents. So they tend to be lowballed.

I bought an empty lot a number of years ago, using the agent we used to close on our house. I had that agent find and contact the owner to see if I could buy it, and he volunteered to sell it at the assessed value. I told the agent 'sold', but then he talked to his friends and they clearly told him he was crazy, which is true. He asked for about 12% more and I didn't even blink.
If you read The Intercept article, you'll see that the company was hired to test the water after the Flint water crisis began, in response to citizen complaints.

This is entirely separate from the federally mandated requirements around testing that was performed by government agencies.

> That municipal decisions played an important role too, is - if anything - an argument for the thesis that the water supply in the United States should not be trusted and not against it.

We arrived here in response to your misinformed claim that "A disaster like Flint could not happen here" because "Germany is closely monitored at the source, at the water works and even close to the user in apartment buildings and rental properties. Also, our water supply is not privatized, like in the US. A disaster like Flint could not happen here."

I've demonstrated that the US has similar policies in place, and neither the water supply nor the mandated testing for metals were privatized, yet the Flint disaster did happen. People and governments are fallible. Corruption and criminal negligence happens everywhere.
Lots of security professionals say that user-facing (as opposed to server) Linux except for Qubes, Android and ChromeOS is significantly less secure than user-facing Windows, MacOS, iOS, Qubes, Android and ChromeOS.

And I think they're probably right (although I'm not a security professional).
Is that strictly true? Doesn't it depend on the signal processing power of the receiver?
I’ve seen stories in the Australian media about foreigners (Australians and Americans) buying these and restoring them. The story was set up by a couple of Americans who’ve set up a business assisting people to do it. Even taking into account the fact that they were trying to promote their business, it was clear that it’s not easy, but with patience it’s possible to end up with a pretty amazing house incredibly cheap - at least by, say, Californian standards.

The thing I found strangest is that some of the houses featured were in beach towns not that far from Tokyo. If I were a middle-class Japanese family, I’d be buying one of these as a weekender.
Appears it clarifies the governments position that it be treated 'like ketamine' and any other schedule 3 drug.

Maybe recreational ketamine and codeine will be a thing?

Fairly true.
Most don’t and live with the crowding (recently happened at Purdue, Northeastern among others). But UCI rescinded aggressively in 2017 and nobody cares anymore. (You just have to actually enforce the things like “you need xyz GPA in your final semester” that they are often lax about.)
By coincidence, I visited an Akiya in Nagano yesterday. It's not free, but it's very cheap. I will probably buy it (+60% likelihood). If so, I will spend additional 200% asking price on repairs.

Technically, I am resident in Tokyo but own and live in a house in Nagano. It had been empty for 6 years, but not abandoned when I bought it 2 years ago. Here is what I know:

- There is no residence requirement to own property in Japan. You can be domiciled anywhere.

- Even for a government-sold Akiya, you will pay some reasonable fees to realtor and scrivener.

- You probably will not be able to get a loan if domiciled overseas.

- Legal is not particularly difficult (compared to other countries). I have only done it in person, and cannot imagine doing it remotely.

- There is no option to do legal in English. You will need a Japanese speaker. Or at least let them explain the documents at your level. They will do so sincerely.

- If your akiya includes farmland, you will need to demonstrate a plan to farm it. If the plan is not accepted by local govt, or you don't fulfill the plan, the sale may be voided.

- It is generally not a scammy environment. ymmv.

Anyone thinking to buy property in Iida, Nagano please look me up.
