What no one really seems to talk about that I can find is just how the money flows through NYC and then to TransCore, the company that is running the service.

Most of these are some sort of profit sharing arrangement, usually with most of the fee going to the provider vs the local government. This is almost always some sort of shady friend of a friend deal that makes the only real winner the service provider, in this case TransCore, so it would be interesting to trace the money through the deal to see just what the real motivation and reality is of this. Now particularly that it's turning into a circus, who pays the company running it now that it's installed and NOT being used and no profit to be had?

It was already stated that NYC wanted tracking of cars even without the congestion fees, and thus tracking the people in or around them, so likely the real reason they're there. Since the local law enforcement cannot effectively police the city, this is meant to do something, hopefully anything to help, but with most of the crime originating from undocumented migrants at this point, the only persons to be punished will be real citizens.

Funny thing, in the UK they are trying this as their ULEZ plan, and people took to this by chopping down the cameras installed on the side of the road to the point they've disabled effectively more than 10% of them. The city of course is trying to find the "vigilantes" doing this, but mean time they are deploying vans equipped with cameras and readers in their place to deter vandalism. The "blade runners" as they're called have now taken to following them around and blocking them with cars, objects, or otherwise still disabling them with spray paint and other means however to negate their efficacy.

Sadly the NYC cameras are mounted in such a way to make this more difficult to do, but I'm certain where there's a will, there's a way.
Depends on your own willpower. I imagine if you are one to take more candy than usual if its closer, you also either sleepwalk or even somehow rationalize you getting your candy fix in even if there was no bowl of it. It then becomes a question of discipline or a lack of it, which no doubt might manifest in other aspects of life than this bowl of candy.

If we're going there, we may as well mention Portal which predates Stanley Parable by 6 years, and features liminal spaces with the same eerie feel - in the game, you wake up trapped in an abandoned laboratory that seems to go on forever, which on its own hits the liminal notes a bit, and then you suddenly find yourself breaking out into service corridors and navigating the backrooms of the facility. Portal 2 (two years before TSP) continues that theme, though I feel it overdid the scale a bit, to the point of breaking suspension of disbelief.
This seems weird to me. What is your savings rate versus theirs? I say this because on the surface, the same feels true for me, but on closer inspection I spend money like water in ways they had tightly controlled. And yet, I have a higher savings rate than they did.

(However, I don't have a pension.)
Hmm, I’ll need to check but the genome of the single cell protozoan, Polychaos dubium, was reported in 2004 to have a genome of 670 billion basepairs. Perhaps this was an error.

It can also be caused by SSRIs and NDRIs and benzos! Great side effect if you're already feeling depressed. Although benzos can also help, depending. I think 80% of cases are a brain thing and not an ear thing, but because ENTs and audiologists have exactly one hammer (hearing aids), we get fuck all for research.

Some guy calls my phone during dinner with some survey about the economy. I answer every question with a variation on “fuck you and your economy” and then hang up.

I grew up in a family of social scientists and yet it still shocks me how much people actually believe the words “studies say” and “experts insist” when it comes to matters of human sentiment and opinion.
In the dynamic realm of sports streaming and events, measuring brand awareness has become increasingly vital. With the global sports streaming market expected to exceed $85 billion by 2025, brands need to distinguish themselves in a highly competitive environment. This blog post explores the importance of brand awareness in engaging audiences, building loyalty, attracting sponsors, and sustaining a competitive edge. We also examine effective methods for measuring brand awareness, including surveys, social media listening tools, web analytics, and brand recognition technology. By understanding and utilizing these metrics, brands can make strategic decisions to boost their visibility and influence in the sports streaming industry.
Autism is a result of neurons failing to "trim" or being over-connected. Being "on the spectrum" refers to the degree of above average physical over-connection of neurons. The opposite, when neurons fail to connect or lose too many connections is called schizophrenia.

People that are between the two, the vast majority of people, are not said to be either autistic or schizophrenic (you can't be both at the same time but can go from autistic to schizophrenic with a degenerative disease). Everyone is not "on the spectrum" for autism, again by definition no one that is schizophrenic is "on the spectrum" for autism at all so your comment is nonsensical.

If you’ve been a sysadmin as long as I have then you’ll remember when services didn’t even manage their own listener and instead relied on a system-wide daemon that launched and managed those services (inetd). Whereas now you have to manage each listener individually.

That was additional initial effort but the change made sense and we sysadmins coped fine.

Likewise, there was a time when server side website code had to be invoked via a httpd plugin or CGI, now every programming language will have several different web frameworks, each with their own HTTP listener and each needing to be configured in its own unique way.

Like with inetd, the change made sense and we managed just fine.

Tech evolves — it’s your job as a sysadmin to deal with it.

Plus, if you’re operating at an enterprise level where you need a holistic view of traffic and firewalling across different distinct services then you’d disable this. It’s not a requirement to have it enabled. A point you keep ignoring.
Those are probably vole deterrents.
The best researchers won't be much better at 45 than 25

To get great research done you have to be great manager who can prioritise time and resources, balance a budget, forge connections with other researchers, get the most out of the people working for you and know where and how to get even more funding to keep the research going after the initial round of research dries up. Those 20 years might not make you a better 'scientist', but hopefully they will make you better at all the other 'soft' skills that are required for successful scientific research. At 25 you should be focusing on the science and doing research and not have to bother with all that 'crap'.
I believe that you have strong opinions of the system with which I have too much experience.

Many of these people are, in the case of pain clinics, getting their pills paid for by workers’ compensation carriers.

My Thinkpad with extended battery gets about the same battery life as my M1 MacBook Air. And the Thinkpad’s battery life can be easily doubled or tripled since the batteries are hot swappable.
If you're exerting willpower to avoid the candy bowl on your desk, you're actively engaging in an activity that occupies some amount of your thoughts and attention. Simply not having it there is strictly better.

I think you're kinda stretching here to make this a moralistic thing, but no matter how much willpower you have it's better not to have the candy there.

Hey so the ending squares can still be used vertically which is why they're there.

Example:

1 + 8 + 4
+ 2 + 3 +
3 + 2 + 9

Here you could use the left side to do 1 + 3 vertically.

For a larger grid to prevent misclicks, try going to settings and changing the "grid size" setting to a larger option.

I think the contention is that playing political games, as quoted in the article, is beyond the minimum amount of EQ normally expected for a non-management role.

Problem is that many places design their ladder such that non-managers are expected to do manager-like work past a certain level. This is to much dismay of those people who are not trained in management skills, and most of the skills they have acquired thus far are no longer being put to good use. These Weird Nerds may very well understand that being at the next level means making impact that exceeds what one person can do alone, nonetheless they will become increasingly unhappy at those roles. Maybe they will leave, maybe they will avoid getting promoted to higher levels in the first place.
Considering the federal interstate project funds a lot of the roads in question in new jersey already I’d say bills are being paid sufficiently already. Not to mention that new jersey also benefits in countless other ways from proximity to nyc. If not for nyc what might the state look otherwise: Maine or Vermont? Nyc has afforded much already for the garden state.
I've always wondered about that. I'm also bothered when walking around Tokyo (it's very prevalent in Ginza for some reason). I've also seen it in other cities in Japan but I've never had that issue in other cities in Asia (Hong Kong, Shanghai, Bangkok, etc..)

I'm 40 too but as a kid, I was very bothered by the high pitch wine of the tv turning on, so I'm guessing I've always been rather sensitive.

It certainly doesn't solve the spam problem by itself, but as someone still DIY hosting their email, I find the Spamhaus Zen DNSBL has non-zero usefulness. Mostly filtering out some of the botnet spam that gets past the initial "must have RDNS than matches forward DNS" Postfix check (which gets a bigger chunk of it).
Just listened to a podcast that pointed out that housing is expensive, education is expensive, childcare is expensive, cars are expensive, and money is expensive (interest rates are high). And out of pocket expenses for healthcare are going up and up.

Economists don't have a handle on the compromises and adaptations that people have been making over the last decade or more, e.g. moving to the cheaper place further out of town rather than where they want to live, or house-sharing rather than living as a couple.

It seems people are at the limit of the adaptations they can make and are pretty pissed off about it.
No I didn't, but friendica looks pretty good! I will give it a try. Thanks a lot!
Hi, I’m the author of this post. I’m not aware of a similar Pico project that acts as an Altera USB Blaster clone. Seems like an interesting project idea though! The CH552 firmware I used would provide a good sample to start from.
That’s "yes-man" culture or "yes culture". "Yes and" is about collectively building on a premise, but you can immediately follow with a challenging or conflicting contribution.
What about if there is a `1` next to a `2`, shouldn't you be able to click `1` and then `2` and it concatenates to `12`?

Bistatic 0. one transmitter + two receivers. Very fun topic as I worked on a few and sync them up as the transmitter radar needs to connect to the second receiver radar (usually a full radar for redundancy). Multistatic is fun also as they employ many covert receivers. Had many war game scenario conversations about the setups.

Maybe they’re getting a bistatic return with multiple microphones separated in distance enough to be significant.

Ultrasonic frequencies generally start at around 20,000 Hz (20 kHz) and can extend up to several gigahertz (GHz). 1

Yes exactly and the EU has meetings this way, so it seems good enough already. I don't think in practice, let's say on holiday, you'd need anything faster than 200ms for the first token. Of course, more speed would probably mean better experience, but it is already well within the realm of fast enough. Accuracy matters a lot more.
Man I was just lurking but this take is so wrong I just have to comment. It’s in fact the exact opposite. Every other country in the world is much much worse at this. Look at China! They’re actually destroying companies left and right. You should qualify your statement with “public projects” which do not have any foreign investment. The US is very friendly to foreign private projects, almost too friendly arguably. It also has public reliable information and rules for investing which make price discovery much easier than other foreign markets. It’s probably one of the most lenient and best markets for external investment.
Seems there might be a business opportunity in a “third squatter for hire” business.
I'd also be suspicious of this. You can also get a lot of beating artifacts from having many amplifiers in close proximity. If the speakers were still larger "mid-range" horns as were seen in decades past, this also might be less of an issue (low efficiency above 10kHz), but for cost/aesthetic reasons the speakers have shrunk quite a bit so they no longer mechanically filter much.

If the problem was something everyone could hear it would likely be fixed, but since it's a minority, it's likely to persist.

One other possibility for active US is crowd tracking. I've seen solutions that monitor # people and walking speed at doorways using ultrasonics. A lot of "one way" doors also use simple US detectors.
What’s the greener future. I spoke with an environmental scientist she told me we won’t be able to return to earth from Mars and terraform earth.
Most cars have ultrasonic sensors for parking and radar for longer range detection, such as cruise control.
Some entity called Nullbulge Group claims they took over the repo.

While I think this is true, some people have it harder than others. So sure, anyone can learn emotional intelligence, but if it's 2x the effort for someone the ROI is much worse.
I hate to admit it, but PV* and wind* are simply cheaper and faster to deploy than nuclear for most domestic US energy needs. We don't even really need fusion power except for interstellar travel in the medium-distant future.

* They are unreliable and require grid storage, be it hydro PES or local substation or en-consumer batteries, which makes the grid more resilient anyhow.
It was an extension for ComfyUI, which has 37k stars on GitHub. The way ComfyUI is commonly used is that a person shares a "workflow" file, which utilizes various obscure extensions (called "custom nodes") and then the people who want to run the workflow on their own computer will install all these obscure custom nodes that have like 40 stars on GitHub or so.
I imagine having offical languages dictates that all the state functions have to operate in said official languages. If you have a government office for example, your website, pamphlets, administered tests etc for example have to be printed in the official language. Would be a mess if that was not enforced

> I've had to explain to numerous people that having an ADHD diagnosis doesn't, for example, exempt them from the same performance review standards as their peers at work.

I can’t speak for you, but that isn’t at all accurate as far as I know. I myself would not say these kinds of things to a coworker, and definitely not to a subordinate one or one that reports to me, as I don’t work in HR or legal department, and I’m not intimately familiar with actual existing accommodations for ADHD and other conditions under the FMLA and other disability discrimination laws and regulations in the US or other countries.

This is a legal minefield and accident waiting to happen. Tread lightly.

It's often not about the risk, though. It's sadly common for uppercase-D "Deaf culture" people to decline these kinds of treatments for their kids because they want their kids to be deaf too. That's absolutely child abuse.
The 6502 is somewhat famously a hard target for the C language, and KickC does quite well at producing good results in spite of this. The C language is heavily based around pointers and stack usage. The 6502 has a minimal hardware stack: 256 bytes with no stack-relative addressing. So a "stack frame" is an alien concept that requires slow workarounds to emulate. And the 6502 only has pointers in the form of words stored in the first 256 bytes of RAM ("zero page") and also requires the use of one of the three registers to dereference.
Flag misinformation because they are 'sure'.
I have not seen a statement from Nullbulge so it's not appropriate to say that they took over the repo.

The author of the repo is claiming that their repo is hacked, but this is an obvious lie, because their very first GitHub commit is the one where they push the malware. Nobody would hack an empty GitHub account.

I don't know if the author of the repo is lying when they say that Nullbulge is behind the attack (perhaps the author is part of Nullbulge, perhaps not).
The first time, I lacked the self-confidence to speak up in the face of dominating people. So I internalized their behavior as "proof" of my incompetence - in the face of the patently obvious facts to the contrary, in the face of my own experience and judgement. Naturally, this made things much worse - I consider myself "part of the problem" in that case, though not the largest part by any means. Anyway, I was fired a few months later.

The second time, it was a breaking point - the CEO, who said those things was incorrigible, and the situation was unworkable. I called my boss in the morning (the fucker CEO had been yelling at me at 11 at night) and gave notice. He quit too - exhausted of losing engineers and being party to the abuse. Within the month, they lost most of their engineering team, and the few who stayed had received promotions and substantial pay increases to incentivize sticking around. They also "saw the light" and halted feature work for several months while (I assume) the worked on fixing their tech debt problem.

I've done really substantial work on myself since then, and I feel like I'm in a much better place to appropriately execute the soft skills required by my position. So I'd like to think that if (or rather, when :) ) the first situation occurs again, I will be self-assured enough to push back in an effective non-confrontational way, or at least speak my mind instead of being silenced by the unreasonable shame of an inappropriate dressing down. I would find ways of halting the narrative every time bullshit was spoken, and address the "inaccuracy" instead of behaving in a way that that manager took as confirming his suspicions that I was the problem.

And, in the second case, I'd have quit way, way earlier, when I saw all the previous red flags.

Mostly though, I'm not going to work for hotheaded, first-time founder-engineers so recently graduated from college, so bereft of the experience required to lead an engineering team. :)
The shift to high level languages like COBOL, BASIC, FORTRAN from machine language? The shift to GC languages? The shift to vastly inefficient but easy to use scripting languages like Python? There's a long history of trading off CPU/RAM/storage efficiency (i.e. massive amounts of money) to make computing accessible to less and less nerdy people.
How anyone could keep x86 assembly and AT&T’s assembly straight is beyond me. Learning the industry standard assembly was hard enough. Thank goodness there are people who like this stuff, phew!
We’re getting off on a tangent here about here about the mechanism behind that polarization, but it reflects the broader point I was trying to make with my comment. That is to be skeptical of simplistic answer, like “economic termites” or “corporate propaganda”, to complex topics like the economy or polarization. It might imply an agenda other than seeking the truth.
Could there be other reasons why these videos are being uploaded more, and why you are being served them more over the last few years? Access to videography has been growing constantly since smartphones were introduced. There are now multiple platforms for uploading these videos, and doing so is easier than ever. These platforms algorithmically optimize for engagement and do this by promoting ragebait and controversy. And there are now entire, active communities dedicated to sharing/spreading/promoting these (r/PublicFreakout has almost 5M members). What you happen to be seeing may not reflect any sort of trend, either up or down.
I had almost forgotten about the “Mosquito” devices for deterring youths that became ubiquitous in some areas during the late 2000’s and early 2010’s.

Yeah, I feel like what I really want is something like this, but also it saves the whole page and indexes it and that's the first set of results when I type into my address bar. Ideally self-host-able. I kinda enjoy organizing my bookmarks at times, but I mostly do that so I can find things... which I remember from content, not my organization, so I know it's mostly pointless to organize (for me).
