By that logic, they were available even before, because you could fly to US and buy it there. Being able to buy a laptop in finland is pretty much the same hassle for me as if i bought it in US... less custom fees, more shady remailers and a language I don't understand.

Half of amazon.de won't deliver to my (not germany) EU country, half of amazon.it won't either, and sometimes there' stuff that one of them will send but not the other (stuff sold by amazon, not third party sellers), and some things are impossible to get (lipo batteries) while other companies somehow manage to ship them.

EU is far from a "unified market" (in a way where buying stuff from other EU countries would be the same experience as buying stuff from your own). Even large retailers like amazon don't even care about the difference, since they have your shipping address, notify you that your shipping address is set to <address> with a popup, let you search for an item, show you an item in the search results, and only when you click on the item, they tell you that they can't ship it to your address.
Just like people who swear they love the constitution, people who swear they love the Bible usually have no idea what's in it. Like if you want to go full "New Covenant" you don't need the Bible for that; if you don't well welcome to observing the Sabbath and not mixing your cloths.

To learn anything, I always turn towards youtube. Its easily the best for getting started in anything. Cooking, carpentry, masonary, building a house!

But it just stops the moment you get started and make it to the beginner stage. The moment you get one project done, the details around how certain things work is nothing to be found on youtube, unless it’s a very generic skill like cooking.

After that valley of amateur, learning by doing is the best teacher.
Is it really possible to even disrupt Youtube? It's been a constant in our lives for the past 20 years and is basically a historical record by now. By a rough estimate, they have to keep buying over 1% of the total world production of HDD drives just to stay on top of the new data being uploaded. Google has completely destroyed it, placing more ads than videos on it, making it unusable without an adblocker and people still use it, it's that core to everyone's lives. It's like a public utility.
Wow wow wow.... wow.
Aren't there some "data hoarder" fans who have them downloaded just in case, and could upload to IA or even torrent?
> How would they have got a proper CA signed cert for a domain they don't own?

No need. People probably don't look closely at the domain name.
Ah interesting. I only have a viewer account, so I imagine I wouldn’t be able to use such a plugin.
I was imagining them trying to spoof an amazon.com domain using an evil dns server or something of that nature. That would be much harder to detect, but the cert is an issue.

I guess it's overcomplicating things, though. Most people will just not notice that whatever domain they use is not legit.
Scrum works rather well in small, young, customer-less projects if it is being properly implemented and followed. The problem is that it doesn't scale well, Scrum struggles with bigger teams and multi teams projects.
I'm always puzzled how folks praise PKGBUILDs when it's mostly irrelevant for a regular user. Unless by 'PKGBUILD system' you mean AUR, a place where random people push random build scripts and other folks are happy to execute said build scripts locally, quite often without any real sandboxing or even a quick glance at the actual code.
> I ended up building my own web simulator for that part anyway

Is it public?
Meh, easily avoided.

Just do a captive portal redirect to "google.johnsmith.example.com" with a properly signed certificate, add google logo and login fields, and after a user enters his credentials, just redirect them to actual google.com.

Most people don't look at domains in the url. You can actually probably register a domain like "freegooglewifi.com" or something.
To be symmetric, the loops should read like this:

for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
for (i = n; --i >= 0; )

The second one could also be this:

for (i = n - 1; i >= 0; i--)

I say this because your backwards loop accesses the inclusive range [0, n] while your forwards range accesses [0, n - 1].
Originally it was going to be a lisp-like language.
> I'm also thinking of what happens if Biden is elected but incapacitated before the inauguration. My guess is the VP would take his slot since they were already elected

Hypothetical: Biden-Harris wins the 2024 popular vote and electoral college vote, but the GOP retains control of the House. However, days before Congress meets to count the electoral votes, Biden unexpectedly passes away. What happens if the GOP-controlled House decides they will refuse to accept votes for a dead man? The Electoral Count Reform and Presidential Transition Improvement Act of 2022 says they aren’t allowed to do that, but it isn’t clear if the Act is legally enforceable-if the House votes to uphold an objection to votes for a deceased man, in violation of that Act, ultimately SCOTUS may have to decide whether that Act is binding on the House. There is no guarantee the conservative SCOTUS majority would decide that it is.
It's a silly example but he does give a constraint. The one constraint is that the heat has to come from the candles. The purpose is to illustrate that even if one variable is constrained, there are other variables that may not be constrained, that you had assumed were static (altitude, pressure). It's just an example which illustrates a point of the article: try and think of something you had assumed was fixed and change that instead of working with the parameters you thought you had. Not a bad idea overall.
Just so we are clear: your fine with china owning a media company in the US, because it would be "isolationist and supremacist" to do other wise? And you make this statement with full knowledge that China does not let us do the same (all media there is state controlled).

> deeply unconstitutional

It is not this, where does the constitution enshrine anything for a foreign power operating on American soil?

> categorically stupid

By what measure and for what reason? We did not ban TikTok, we did not remove byte dances ability to profit from it. We just required that the company that is controlled by a foreign nation sell its controlling interest in a massive media company.... Unlike china where FB/Google... etc are banned outright.

In general, copyright is intended to help more good texts become available, either under a limited monopoly, or later in public domain.

(Same thing with patents, that were intended to help more inventions be published, and not be lost as trade secrets, while also helping to build businesses around them..)
Criminals are smart enough to skip any of that -- they'll trick you into opening a site that has the "same" domain and looks the same, except that the domain uses a Unicode character that is just a tiny bit different from the real one. (Thank you ICANN!) I get junk email from them every day. Even if just 1 out of 50 people fall for this, they get a good payout.

And that's just one of the many possible scenarios. When you control someone else's Internet, there is a lot of things you can do. Google's certificate transparency is going to help a lot here, but only as much as what happens in a browser.

yup, but the style of the modules starts to diverge as different people maintain them.

IMO one does want people whose fulltime job is to looking at a codebase orthogonally to those who are just implementing a feature. People who make sure it builds fast, is secure tries to be consistent to some degree etc.

Maybe someone here can enlighten me. I usually don't bring my phone into stores.
But the other day I went to Home Depot and I had my phone on me. Despite my settings of "Do not connect to any wifi network", I look and I am shocked to find that my phone is connected to some random wifi network. Odd.

I get home and all the sudden my phone won't connect to my wifi and when I try to connect it to my home wifi, it says, "incorrect password" and its connection was intermittent. It would come back for a second if I turned the wifi on and off again.

Eventually I deleted every known wifi network from my phone and its been solid since. But what the heck happened at home depot?

Smart tiered proxy approach to decrease cost of project and increase efficiency
Pretty much any internal tool/TUI/CLI/library I've created. If I had to guess I'd say at most 25% of the company projects I've worked on have launched AND have consistent usage. Working hard on something just for it to wither crushes my soul but internal projects are different. They're all skunk works projects. No tickets. No project/board. No PM pushing back on how many points (read: hours) something should be. I'm solving real problems that directly impact the quality of life for myself and my coworkers. The best part is getting real, genuine, feedback. If something sucks they'll tell you and they won't sugarcoat it.
Yeah, I have a Swedish layout Dell as well and it's better but not much. I'm confused now, though, as I took the parent as telling me that non-Swedish Macs also have the horrible symbol placement for the various braces. (rsynnott above clarifies that it's indeed Swedish-specific so it's just the Macs are a bit worse than the PCs).

I'm fairly adept at switching between British PC keyboard, Swedish PC keyboard, and Swedish Mac keyboard nowadays, but the latter's significantly the worst (and don't get me started on how default IntelliJ key combos work with that)
HSTS does absolutely nothing to protect against evil portals. These portals aren't spoofing DNS for google.com, they're typically displaying their own TLS-enabled site with a familiar-looking login flow, i.e. "Log in with Facebook/Google/Amazon to access Wi-Fi."

> What would compel a State to recognize any new Federal ID in the future if they already have the power to disregard Federal IDs in theory and practice?

The same thing Congress does to add a workaround for any law it's constitutionally forbidden to enforce on the States. A "voluntary" program where states that don't agree to the ID law don't get any federal highway funds that year.

This has been extensively tested and the Supreme Court is fine with it, e.g. [0]

Alternatively, enforcement through military means - Congress hasn't authorized the use of force against dissenting states since the 1860s, but the threat is always there.

Or paramilitary means, where an armed federal law enforcement group seizes control of state installations that aren't aligned with aspects of federal law. The DEA and ATF have a blueprint to follow here.

Or financial means, where Congress orders federally-regulated banks not to engage with customers that don't respect its ID policies.

There are other levers to pull, too. It's not that the States don't have any power, but in practice they are allowed the powers that the federal government chooses not to centralise - the opposite of how it works in theory, where the federal government governs only to the extent the States allow.

https://www.google.com/search?q=congestion+pricing+study+eff...

In NYC, people with $10M+ ride mass transit and want to see it funded but unfortunately, the cost is too high to simply increase taxes on the wealthy.

To address your concern, Uber drivers and construction workers will pass their increased costs onto their lower Manhattan customers, just like they do for their time sitting in traffic, tolls, parking, traffic and parking tickets, meals, insurance, etc. Simple repairs in lower Manhattan can be hundreds of dollars. Already, for cost, time and traffic reasons, commuters of all types batch their Manhattan trips. Congestion pricing is once per day and therefore a nominal percentage in top of everything else.
Yes, it might break someone's arm if you drive into them! Better get a Ford F450 and turn them into a fine red mist instead.
I would think that the container world is dominated by OpenShift, tailed by using plain K8s.
I love this take. What language(s) do you typically use to write CLI programs? I'm also interested in learning about what types of internal TUI tools you have created.
Congestion pricing is good IFF the money is used to fund transit in some way that eases said congestion. (Personally I believe this should mean mass transit and pedestrian/bicycle infrastructure, but that's not the main "theoretical issue" I'm trying to address here.) Otherwise you're just replacing a more egalitarian form of backpressure (the traffic itself) with a less egalitarian one (prices).
You mean an admin panel on a server application, right? At my current job, I'm on a platform team that supports hundreds of applications. Each of them have their own admin panels.

However, there are settings that apply to all of them in our library code. For those, we use feature flags, and they are loaded from a network service, environment variables, code and config files. The overriding logic is complicated for legacy reasons and prone to bugs, so we are moving to a centralized feature flag system.
People with honest intentions who knows anything about the sector will read it, smile a bit, nod and understand. The rest I literally don't give a sjit about ^_^
My wife and I were going to a graduation party in Maryland and figured we’d stay in a hotel near the end of the metro line and ride into DC to see the National Mall, Union Square, etc.

The Shady Grove end of the red line has a large development of mixed commercial and residential of buildings that are uniformly about 5 stories (I think) tall that was built to go with the transit line, I understand it is like that in Virginia too.

China is famous for building metros before building the rest of the city.

TL;DR: US manufacturers seem to favor the luxury market due to margins, but that might change

To my understanding, there are two main demographics:

* truck as tool (you and I)

* truck as identity statement & luxury good

Sadly, long-running vehicles don't fit the short-term stock price boost margins on luxury features seem to offer. As a result, we've moved past heated seats to focus on:

* ever-growing size

* tailgating accessories

* touch screens and voice assistants

However, even the target market for this seems to have its limits. I've seen a forum thread where people are asking what the point of Alexa is[1] if it doesn't integrate with anything. If you look at the "Similar threads" section at the bottom, there are plenty more Alexa sync issues.

Maybe people will get fed up eventually?

Did they do Rust yet?
This is not the case at all.

It's done for gluten free foods. Gluten free foods have to be under 20ppm to be called GF, and there are many gluten free foods out there. Even some made on the same equipment as gluten containing foods (just cleaned thoroughly).
The ones that were straightforward and close to the business. It starts at the obvious, works in an obvious way and has comment blocks at hard parts.

For this reason I despise most modern [web] projects, which have a weak start, immediately drop into “services” and “components”, do one action per source file per 30-50 lines of code, which are mostly imports and boilerplate, and have hundreds of these files. You can never tell what it does because it does almost nothing except formalities.

I also noted a tendency to use wrong paradigms for a language. E.g. it may have no closures (imagine that in 202x) so they use events as continuations for asynchronicity, which results in a mess. Or it isn’t immutable/functional, but they pretend it is, which results in fragility.

The best projects are both close to their business and written in a paradigm of the language used.

Was there someone enforcing good practices top down?

Natural time pressure is the best bs cleaner, imo. You write effing code, maybe have few hours a week to refactor strange parts. With no time pressure a project naturally becomes massaged by all members into the “likeable” form of their age.
In fact that's the main thing they sell.

A significant portion of the core guidelines you don't need to read and are already dealt with in static analysers. As I said, you don't need to know the rules, enable an analyser and you get the exact same experience as rust, your code won't pass the build step.

And am I going to tell the family of the dead person at a funeral my code failed but it's not my fault, the compiler has a bug and I couldn't confirm that myself? And don't pull the "the code is open source you can look at it" crap, I invite you to go and reason about any part of the rust compilers codebase.

In C++ I have multiple compilers all targeting the exact same standard and if in one of them my code is broken I need to explain that, I also have multiple analysers for the same thing.

Also haven't had a single segfault nor memory corruption not index error because I run santizers and analysets on CI, so all those things get caught in build or in testing just like in rust.

Is it as simple as rust, no, and I've already said that but I get the same safety guarantees and I am in control of the code. There isn't some subset of things I cannot do because the languages' built in analysers determines it too expensive to statically analyse that and they don't trust me as a developer to actually write tests and validate all the preconditions I have documented.
So they are going to put small ammounts of radioactive stuff in the horns of live Rhinos so that they are easier to detect at border patrols? Have I understood it right?

What you say proves that this was not an AI post, because all the AIs are trained on erroneous sources, where bismuth is called "metal" (the older better chemistry manuals may either be not scanned or available only in some archiving sites).

Even if useful definitions for the terms "metal" and "semi-metal" are 300 years old, as I have said, many modern manuals either do not give any proper definition for the term "metal", or even if they do they do not follow it consistently, so sometimes they apply the word "metal" to substances like bismuth, whose only resemblance to a metal is having free electrons. If this rule were followed consistently, graphite would also have to be named "metal", but no manual does that.

While having free electrons may be the most important property of metals for electrical and electronics engineering, for mechanical engineering and for manufacturing any kind of devices, the other property of metals, ductility, is far more important. This is why the distinction between ductile metals and intrinsically fragile semi-metals is very important.

In this case, the use of the word "metal" for bismuth is a clear cause of confusion, as it suggests an aromatic ring made of electro-positive atoms, which would be a real surprise. An aromatic ring made of atoms with the electro-negativity of bismuth is no surprise.

The elements with high electro-negativity, which in elemental form are semi-metals, semiconductors or non-metals, form covalent bonds between their atoms.

The elements with low electro-negativity, which in elemental form are true metals, form metallic bonds between their atoms.

So the expected chemical behavior for "metals" and for "semi-metals" is quite different.
Why do you like that?
Great, they identified differences in gut bacteria. Their control group was usually the spouses, so they were geographically similar. Wonderful.

People with PD are on very different medications, controlled diets (you need to avoid protein at different parts of the cycle), and.... what 'simple treatment'?

The conclusions in that fluff piece are not in the original study. Sure, some bacteria are linked to differences in uptake of some vitamins, but why would adding more vitamins to the diet affect the PD? It isn't like that is the cause of PD, at best a symptom.
