These things tend to be fairly complex and require lots of integration with various services to get working. I think it's a little more organic to start building something simple and end up progressively adding more than implementing one from scratch (unless there are people around with experience)
I had to look that up. It sounds like what he did was deceptive and against the rules. What I'm talking about is changing the rules.
i guess you are downvoted because it sounds like you say that drug use or poor eating are the main reasons for children to end up in adoption. i don't think that's true, there are many other possible reasons. that said, whatever the reasons are, i fear few children come out unaffected by whatever trauma they experienced which lead to an adoption, with the only exception of children being adopted right at birth.
I think most people knew this was going to be the end result.
Ignoring all the fallacies, you are correct about one thing; the recipients are of course not the problem, the problem are the proponents of such nonsensical, fantastical, infantile, and even outright immoral and unethical concepts like UBI or even welfare.

All we have to do to convince you that UBI and and welfare is immoral is to simply make you pay for that which you support and not force people who do not support it to have to pay for the cost against their will and under threat of government terror.

Immediately you will be converted from a supporter of getting and giving other people's money when you have to pay an additional 30% of your income to support others who you don't even know.
Its because Netflix pretends to be a tech company to get the high market cap.

So they hire tons of engineers who have nothing to do but rearchitecture the mess their microservices have created.

Then there are others who create observability and test harnesses for all of that.

When Pornhub and other porn sites can deliver orders of magnitude more data across the world with much simpler systems, you know it's all bullshit.
On net close to 0. Roughly 50% the cargo holds of passenger aircraft are now taken up by air freight which adds quite a bit of drag and isn’t part of those comparisons and offsets the reduction in passenger legroom.

That freight also helps explain why nearly empty flights can make sense economically.

Can you rephrase that without a double negative? I don’t have a clue what you’re trying to say and your explanation makes it worse.
People sadly value feelings of (totally unearned) intellectual superiority and sense of identity over actual ability to make changes to the world. Thus the stupid subset of mostly young people who think not voting is making some sort of statement other than that they are fools.
I feel the biggest issue was that there was a desperation for the sale which caused to the OP to agree to something out of their comfort zone and experience.

Once you do that, the advantage is for the acquiring company.

> This misunderstands the economy. It's driven by household and government spending. All that B2B stuff happens because some company, somewhere at the end of the chain, sells to households or the government.

No, I didn't misunderstand it. Let me put it in your terms: the remaining elite become tiny but massively consuming households, and the distinctions between the businesses they control and their households will be blurred (e.g. Blue Origin being wholly owned by Bezos). All the economic actors that cannot provide value to these households will get slowly cut off and wither away, and these elites (collectively) will eventually cement total control over all the valuable resources they have some use for (production capacity, compute, energy, raw materials, etc).

To go back to a question I asked upthread: what would the economy look like if you didn't need employees to utilize resources or undertake projects? What happens when most households aren't competitive at anything economically, but there's still a lot of stuff out there to be owned? My answer is those who own the right things (e.g. AI-run, totally automated, adaptable factories; energy resources) will be able to support themselves indefinitely with them and have massive personal surpluses they then use for vanity projects to keep themselves occupied.
Attorneys like repeat business. They’re much more likely to do business again with a private equity firm than a founder, so even if they nominally represent the founder they’re not going to do anything that would jeopardize their prospects for future business with the private equity firm.
Is it a capitalistic mindset? There have been many civilizations throughout history which pillaged everything they could, and I'm not sure very many were driven by capitalism.

I'm thinking about the ancient Egyptians, Vikings, Huns, etc.

His section on volume rings pretty true. I used to play a lot recreationally. And by "a lot" I mean probably on the medium-to-high side of recreational, but not even close to pro. Like attending every major regional event and attending WSOP every year for 10 years. Both cash and tournaments. I've stopped because of how much of a tiring grind poker is, and how much time you have to dedicate in order to make it financially rewarding. You need to play -a lot- to get good, and then you need to play a lot as a good player to make money. It is really a lot of work.

If you are not a winning poker player (in other words, your long term EV at the table is negative), you're just going to lose money on average, so playing more means losing more. It only makes sense to play in that case if you actually enjoy playing the game and treat your losses as the cost of entertainment.

But if you are a winning poker player, you still won't win enough to rely on the income unless you are playing A LOT. And by a lot I mean every day, for hours a day. And even more if you play online because the level of play is so much stronger online than live.

And then, even if you are a winning player, and you play a lot, AND you have enough average cash flow to make it worth it, you are still going to have periods where variance wipes you out and you're down for months straight. It's pretty brutal.

After all this time, I decided I'd rather get a different hobby than spending so much of my time grinding away in a smoky casino. I just play (infrequent) home games now.
By the public API then, may be a language generalized Err(panicked) through Result, nothing more as it is about the request cannot be accomplished at all (target/debug would tell), or may be someone thought on simpler tip through compiler or other thing. I humbly do not know what approach would be simpler, efficient or less intrusive, I would embrace anything to avoid sudden crash.
Yes, and worse, the incidents of unreported income like that also create a narrative to be spoon-fed to the public, that “welfare cheats” are taking advantage of everybody’s goodwill. I’m sure it actually happens. Everything gets abused by some. But people who are doing what you describe are usually not doing it out of greed, but to work around that broken system.
You're right to fear employers who want to avoid claiming employees so that they don't have to comply with, for example, safety laws. But shadow work also includes situations with "casual" business relationships, like a couple who hires a nanny to watch their kids 40 hours a week. Both parties may feel that complying with tax and labor laws is too much of a burden.
Why stage a coup rather than the tried-and-true method of the core engineers leaving the company to start up a competing one?

The above evidently only suffices as a definition, not as an entire course. My point was just that I don't think any other introduction beats this one, especially for a book with the given title.

In particular it has always been my starting point whenever I introduce (the entropy of) macro- and micro-states in my statistical physics course.

What specifically do you recommend trying? I don’t seem to get any physical symptoms after a coffee but my wife is the complete opposite.
I disagree. Things may be different in the EU, but for every feature that triggered the "enable location history" popup, it made a lot of sense to require it. And, most importantly, you can just turn it off and everything important keeps working.

You can disable the "send a list of nearby cell towers to Google's live database" setting, the "send a list of Bluetooth beacons to Google's live database" setting, and the "send a list of WiFi networks to Google's live database" setting, all without losing location access. Your location access will become a lot slower, but that's just a consequence of having to rely on GPS again, like we did before all of these extra features became available.

Google is even making their location history feature worse because they don't like how many blanket location history requests they're receiving from authorities, by moving location history to be stored on-device.

For years Google lied about consent users supposedly gave for some types of location tracking, but after they got found out (and the authorities got involved) they changed their tune.
Another comment mentions land grants and swords to plows in antiquity. Lots of those vets weren’t super happy with the offering at the time since it moved them out to the frontiers where they’d feel less threatening to the republic, sure, but idk, a actual land grant seems better than token assistance of a loan for housing that remains pretty unaffordable.

Education assistance is more substantial maybe, but then again that’s something much of the civilized world enjoys without the threat of being blown up by ieds far from home in a pointless conflict.

Indeed though, let’s not lose perspective, let’s take a hard honest look at things and ask ourselves whether we’re doing better or worse.

The military is one of the best available options to lift people up out of poverty and give them a better chance at life, and it always has been. but it’s also a chance at no life at all, and so if people are forced into making this desperate bargain then it is disgraceful and reflects badly on what we’ve actually accomplished with all the time since antiquity.

No details of the nutrition facts on the company’s website. Like with all the details of the fat-soluble vitamins and the fatty acids profile. Anyone has a link?
One of the selling points of unconditional cash transfers is that they wouldn’t be a disincentive to work. That instead they would help quality of life. And indeed, in high poverty contexts, they don’t disincentivize work. But this result suggests that in the US at least, they do cause people to work less. This is only one study in one context, so I wouldn’t consider anything “proven.” But, it is a big study and a very bad sign.
I'm curious how the next season will go, because from memory, they still have the back half of the first book to go, and fuck-all happens in it. Will they commit to a prequel season or try to string some plot together while telling the prequel story through flashbacks?
I wouldn't consider something that needs to go into a special, unusable mode to apply updates and restarted after to be that resilient. I usually apply many an update to my laptop (running Kubuntu) while using it, and even ignore the occasional restart message (after a kernel update), as it's just a recommendation that can be deferred indefinitely, and my system still remains stable. And my uptimes tend to be on the order of months. Now that's resilience IMO.
Also not smart to provoke a lawsuit from a company with infinite money and bored lawyers.
Yeah - this suggests the simple explanation is true, if you reduce the incentive to work then people work less.

There is a lot of speculation that that's not the case, but it doesn't seem to really hold up.

This comes up a lot in lefty politics imo - similar to people arguing (erroneously) that increasing housing supply raises rents or reducing crime enforcement reduces crime. The simpler/dumber causality around incentives seems more true in all of these cases, the complicated second order theories fail to hold up.
I used to be impressed with these corporate techblogs and their internal proprietary systems, but not so much anymore. Because code is a liability.

I would rather use off-the-shelf open source stuff with long history of maintenance and improvement, rather than reinvent the cron/celery/airflow/whatever, because code is a liability. Somebody needs to maintain it, fix bugs, add new features. Unless I get +1 grade promotion and salary/rsu bump, ofc.

People need to realize that code is a liability, anything that is not the business critical stuff that earns/makes $$$ for the company is a distraction and resource sink.

Somebody made a complaint against this guy, HR (aka the CoC committee) investigated (confidentially, because they don't want to accidentally defame anyone), the guy probably got a lawyer, the board then had to get their own lawyers, the lawyers spent a while negotiating, and ultimately the guy was fired and everyone involved signed a mutual non-disclosure and non-disparagement agreement.
Puzzles - not necessarily jigsaw, but more logic-puzzle types.

Building something.

And I tend to have intense focus if it's 'compiling exhaustive and thorough analyses debunking someone's point in a minor statement they made a week ago that they weren't even thinking about', but that might be me. (One time I spent probably hours carefully trying to figure out the likelihood that an immigrant comes from a country with higher vaccination rates than the US - something around 1/3 if I recall correctly - and then remembered that the US requires vaccinations for all legal immigrants and as undocumented immigrants aren't the majority of immigrants - yes, I did research on that - if you worry about unvaccinated people, you have more to worry about from native-born Americans than immigrants. I did this in response to a passing comment somewhere about how immigrants were bringing disease or something.)

In a similar vein as the previous one, researching a subject you find fun. I remember being like twelve and writing a 20-page paper on Jewish mobsters and the Jewish community and if I recall correctly the 'upper upper' limit was 12. Again: possibly (definitely) just me.
Employees don't trust bosses anymore, says psychologist
I think you might be mistaken about the ratio of the average person's needs/abilities... a probing question is: do we really need telemarketers to continue to exist (just so people have jobs... and that's better that people receive unwanted calls... because?)?

Greed is greed and shouldn't be rewarded.

I otherwise basically agree with you... just that most people are basically able and society doesn't need to do things arbitrarily if there is a better (more direct) way...

We don't need to be in a constant state of production/consumption - we can take a break and still feed people. We throw out food if we aren't selling it because we'd rather let people starve than get a free loaf of bread... which really just stems from a lack of imagination and empathy.

Let's imagine a better world. Imagine and make it so.
When this last round of discussion of visual programming happened I had a minor epiphany.

For a little background, I’ve maintained that visual programming goes absolutely nowhere until we have visual diffs that work (work as in workflow). I’ve been saying that since before the UML Trough of Disillusionment kicked into high gear. Without diffs, without analysis, we are going nowhere fast. Almost every other link of the lifecycle is still intact with visual code but focusing on an editor without diffs breaks the chain. There’s no producing and maintaining commercial grade software without it. It’s either toy programs, or absolutely heroic effort, and what else could you have done with that much energy?

The epiphany was this: motion detection has been a feature of digital video since at least the MPEG days. Someone with a background in video compression needs to tackle the problem of doffing visual code. Figuring out how the code should look (mechanical sympathy) to facilitate this.
Ah indeed, they've edited it now.
I genuinely don't think this is one of those problems that you can solve with technology. As long as America, and the world, uses a fairly short number for telephone calls - which it must - people will be able to either dial whole exchanges for effectively nickels, or they'll be able to buy or steal (or both) this information.

This feels like a problem that can only be solved with regulation, the kind with some muscle behind it. The kind that becomes an existential threat to the sort of company that allows someone to call me five times a day to sell me a home security system with a robot lady, who then redirects me to a human in a boiler room in Tashkent/Dhaka/Indianapolis/Sevastopol/Mumbai.
> until eBPF for Windows is done

Red Hat says CrowdStrike themselves have sent out eBPF files that have caused all sorts of kernel panics. Any sufficiently advanced kernel scripting language is still kernel-level code. I'm not sure eBPF is exactly the savior people are hoping for, though I do still think it remains something of a general improvement if Microsoft can actually get AV vendors and others to use eBPF rather than bespoke kernel drivers.
Glad to hear it. It's really a simple concept.
How to Query Almost Everything (2022)
Agreed, we can do a lot better with the landing page. Right now, it's just a $39 Framer template with stock videos and we didn't change anything.

For the CTA placement, we are working out options to explicitly mention it is private and we don't have access to any of the conversation data.

The whole idea behind the Slack channel is to enable interaction only when you are ready. I understand a demo video will help a lot here. Thanks a lot for your feedback, we will be working on sorting issues one by one.
Hey John, how are you? I didn't get the notification of your message. I'm sorry to hear about the error you found on the website, it should be fixed by now.
Google's competitors complained that they couldn't track users enough with Google's proposed new scheme. They had to bend over backwards and make privacy worse to make the scheme pass the regulators.

Market regulators don't care about privacy or data safety, they care about whether your local ad agency can make as much money as Google can doing the same stuff.
Cost analysis:

The administrators identified 377 ballots and associated memberships as fraudulent. Assuming all fraudulent memberships were new, the minimum cost per voting membership is £45 [1]. Total cost assuming no additional undetected memberships: £16,965 or just under $22,000 at current exchange rates.

Unfortunately current discussions of the marketing value of a Hugo Award have been somewhat drowned out by those who think the fan value of a Hugo is not as high as it once was, but it's not an influential award; if it's true that a Hugo Award for Best Novel generates a thousand or so additional sales, it's hard to make the economics of buying a Hugo make sense.

The components are stored separately. I think what you are advocating for is component wise addition, which I mentioned in my previous comment. It can totally "work," but as I said, it will produce different results than `span1.checked_add(span2)`. For example:

use jiff::{ToSpan, Unit, Zoned};

fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
let span1 = 1.year().months(3);
let span2 = 11.months();
let now = Zoned::now().round(Unit::Minute)?;
let added = span1.checked_add((span2, &now))?;
println!("{added}");

Ok(())
}

Has this output:

$ cargo -q r
P2y2m

Notice how the months overflow automatically into years. Days will do the same into months. You need a reference point to do this correctly. For example, just `span1.checked_add(span2)?` would produce an error.

In contrast, component wise addition would lead to a span of `1 year 14 months`. Which is a valid `Span`. Jiff is fine with it. But it's different than what `checked_add` does. Having both operations seems too subtle.

Also, I don't really think using the `+` operator just to construct spans is that much of a win over what Jiff already has. So that needs to be taken into account as well.
> "Instead of deprecating third-party cookies, we would introduce a new experience in Chrome that lets people make an informed choice that applies across their web browsing, and they’d be able to adjust that choice at any time."

Do we believe an average Internet user has any knowledge to make an "informed decision"?
You sorta want to use affordance, when Apple creates a new type of UI, it’s usually because the introduced new tech. Like recent Samsung copy cat AirPods, they cannot invent a new UI because they are not the innovators, so they need to borrow affordances from Apple.

On why they copy the shape and size, that is the part where you can be more artistic, and it seems they have no taste.

(Affordance meaning using what people already is familiar with so they don’t have to relearn an interface)
Incidentally, the classic C did not have 'void'; instead, it was assumed that any function would, by default, return 'int' in the form of some value stored in the accumulator, and so the "value" of 'void' would be effectively represented by random garbage. The 'void' that was introduced explicitly in a later version of C weakened the original meaning of the unknown value by allowing pointers to 'void' and thus not requiring that the value pointed to must be always thought of as meaningless (since you could cast a pointer to void to a pointer to something else).
