Is that another "please leave so we don't have to fire you" thing, like forcing people to come back to the office after the pandemic?
My maternal grandparents are in their mid to late 90s and it's indeed not glamorous.

Fortunately they've retained mobility, partly thanks to living four floors up without an elevator for 75+ years. As a side note in their block people passed away starting with those who lived closer to the ground.

Not everyone is this fortunate though, as grandpa's older sister is 100 and bedridden.
Fair, I’m really thinking about it in response to people pushing products with terminology we normally use for people but the comparison really is tricky since this is our first collective experience with something which can sound authoritative without any deeper understanding and historically many people have used one as the proxy for the other.
It's also shorthand for "yes, you'll get miles in our plan for this flight".

It's hard to describe how drastic the difference is between a store-bought tomato and one that is homegrown. It's something you immediately miss once the season is gone and the tomato plants are composted, and you're hoping you saved enough jars to make it until next summer.

But one thing that surprised me after a little while gardening is that there is a similarly stark difference for homegrown carrots. Everybody knows what a carrot tastes like from the store, but I had never tasted a carrot that stopped me in my tracks until I took up gardening. It's just like with tomatoes: a richer, sweeter flavor that is virtually nonexistent in the supermarket. If you love growing your own tomatoes, I can't recommend growing your own carrots highly enough.
It’s gotta be a big YMMV thing. I wonder if US airlines might do that domestically only but not for international.

Air Canada will renumber a daily flight if the delay goes past midnight (to avoid having two departures with the same number on the same day). I doubt it’s just a courtesy, but an incompatibility with their (or enough airports’ systems).

Companies handling critical infrastructure should face more scrutiny imo.
Not even that, they'll just have full offices.

What is the value of me telling you [some very specific economic indicator] is [good/bad]? Technically this is public information you can get from many sources, but you call the lobbyist in that industry because they know. One the one hand the information is free, on the other hand to understand what all those numbers mean and give a quick summary is very valuable.
“Login” is such a misnomer. It sounds like a password check (==read) but includes write activities of various kinds and complex can’t-skip logic.

It’s the step where the system first sees the user and must establish identity, of course. But it’s also an attractive place for system designers to frontload complex logic that result in cache-priming or context-priming which the rest of the system depends upon. And then there’s DDOS, device status, account status, anti-fraud, throttles, etc.

It's also a weird assertion because you also have to wait around for takeout/delivery. You could also just cook at home, which usually ends up taking just as long and takes actual effort instead of just sitting around which, in theory, would build even more resilience.
I have already been doing this. My problem is that I somehow obsess too much over the Outlinining and by the time I come to filling in the outlines, I lose steam at about 30%-40% completion mark.

Then, it feels very boring to finish up the filling of outlines and I get a feeling that dragging myself over a bed of gravel is easier than finishing up the whole thing.
This is an Apple related post, so the entire community of techies on here no longer has any understanding of what it means for something to be in beta.
The world has entered a mild recession, and many company leaders are panicking because they don’t know what to do. Their gut reaction is to “look busy” and overwork. Locally in Silicon Valley, many companies I interact with seem to be doing the same thing.

I’m not sure how the inability to login is “more complex”. I clearly state in my comment that logging in wasn’t working.
On the other hand it is genuinely hilarious that what it took to crater tech stocks was someone going "Hey are you guys ever going to make money with any of this AI crap?" "I mean, if you keep giving us billions of dollars, maybe in like a decade. But uh keep doing it, they're totally going to think any day now."
that was creepy and awesome at the same time. The interesting thing is that it's not sophisticated yet, but will be very soon and indistinguishable from a real human being that's when things will get really interesting.
Don't bet against America's oligarchs. They will move Heaven and Earth to make sure the 1% don't have a bad quarter.
Fair enough. I was thinking maybe long term it could save compute and business complexity, since the idea of undoing the law won't gain momentum if people just use workarounds.
Quote from the article:
» [...] This suggests the existence of another, under-discussed reason people aren’t having kids—one that, I have come to believe, has little to do with policy and everything to do with a deep but unquantifiable human need.
That need is for meaning. In trying to solve the fertility puzzle, thinkers have cited people’s concerns over finances, climate change, political instability, or even potential war. But in listening closely to people’s stories, I’ve detected a broader thread of uncertainty—about the value of life and a reason for being. Many in the current generation of young adults don’t seem totally convinced of their own purpose or the purpose of humanity at large, let alone that of a child. It may be that for many people, absent a clear sense of meaning, the perceived challenges of having children outweigh any subsidy the government might offer.«
> why does the pedigree matter if the content stands on its own as valid content?

It depends on the content. If it's just factual stuff, it doesn't matter so much. If it involves human stuff (emotions, opinions, art, etc.) then the difference is incredibly important.
It absolutely does - Fidelity, Vanguard, eTrade, and others are also having issues to some degree.

I think it’s worth drawing a distinction between guilt, which can be positive, and shame, almost never. Guilt is feeling badly because you know you’ve done wrong. Shame is feeling badly because other people know you’ve done wrong.
On mobile, it appears to open regardless of where you tap. This appears to be the culprit:

```const n = document.getElementById('nav-header');

document.addEventListener(

'click',

s => {

u.hidden ||

s.target === null ||

n === null ||

n.contains(s.target) ||

r()

}```

Above, in the same function, there exists the function `e.addEventListener('click', r);`, which is likely closer to what the author intended. This fires the 'click' event any time the page is clicked, which opens the nav menu when it shouldn't.
This seems like a very run of the mill statement, is there something noteworthy here other than an opportunity for folks to riff off this on some related topics?

And is it my imagination or is most of the OPs activity just cnbc submissions?

A Taylor Swift concert ticket from Ticketmaster obviously isn’t in that grey area.
Depending on how hard they push this in the Courts, one possible consequence might end up being the legal weakening of all such EULAs.

I wonder if a judge is going to look for someone to blame when a software glitch grounds more than half the planes in the US and conclude that "the vendor said no take-backsies" just isn't good enough?

If they do, could have interesting consequences for the various software licenses with indemnification clauses.
Tech dependency is only bad when it's bad content consumed with that tech.

Ipad toddlers are really only bad because of moonbug entertainment and whatever the heck this is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elsagate. If my kid gets addicted to Minecraft, Among Us, Factorio, Dwarf Fortress, or any paradox interactive map painting simulator, I know that they are much more likely have a gainful career ahead of them (assuming AI doesn't automate them away, in which case, all such thoughts are forfeit anyway). Load up 50s era cartoons onto that Ipad and I've got entertaining attention span building happening. Swap the language to french and suddenly my kids are learning a new language.

I find it absolutely disgusting how common it is on this forum to see the opinion that "the kids are too tech dependent", and advocating for taking away phones, restricting access to the internet/computers, etc.

A huge amount of these pedagogical luddites themselves only became worthy of working a high paying tech job through their own tech/screen addictions. We should celebrate them here and respect the insane ROI that such addictions provide to us as "hackers". The self-hatred and authoritarian parenting styles advocated here should leave all who witness those who hold these opinions ashamed.

And yes, the kids do have genuine "brainrot" like skibidi toilet or whatever nonsense memes they're making today. I've seen the videos that young kids watch of GTAV characters falling from buildings ad infinitum. We cannot forget the millennial MLG 420 air horn brain-rot of our own era, or the crap TV/movie brain-rot like American Pie, Borat/Bruno, or Reality TV, or the crap from the 90s like bad tabloid talk shows like Jerry Springer, or crap from the 80s designed to sell toys like Transformers, or crap beach movies from the 60/70s like Beach Blanket Bingo and How to Stuff a Wild Bikini, or literally all of Mad Magazine, or formulaic Westerns in the 50s... ?

I for one will relish in high quality entertainment with my child and won't condemn them to getting only tiny glimpses of the wonderful world of art that is within the screen. Addictions to entertainment like books, art, etc are naturally features found in the best writers, painters.
Well the 192 case would probably have an external IP + Port uniquely mapped to it in the router’s NAT table. I think you’re missing the larger point though. No one said IPs are exclusively used as GUIDs. Just that they are used as GUIDs, which they are in the majority of cases, and those GUIDs are re-assigned over time.

My Macbook Pro currently has unique IP + Port, associated with a single process listening to it over NAT and packets you send are routed to its network interface. Next week, someone else’s laptop could have that same IP + Port. That’s the main idea here, not these exceptions.
Except it has nothing to do with morals and everything to do with the real world. Like a lot of problems, it's the Prisoner's Dilemma, just in a different disguise. Sure, you could be morally superior. But the table is pretty easy:

They're moral, you're moral: Puppies for everyone! No one 'wins' the Cold War.

They're moral, you're not moral: You get more advanced technology and 'win' the Cold War.

They're not moral, you are: They get more advanced technology and 'win' the Cold War.

They're not moral, you're not moral: You both get more advanced technology, neither side 'wins'.

Stealing is always a better decision. It has nothing to do with 'hate' necessarily; a purely rational robot, programmed with goals of 'win the Cold War, and, if you can, get puppies for everyone' would also be immoral.
> The _current_ regulations favor the established.

Which is why de-regulation is the answer in this case. If a regulation is bad, roll it back, don't put another layer of complexity on top. Complexity, again, favors the incumbents. They have more resources to deal with all the nuances.
They'll always "fix" it, until they can fix it no more. We are addicted to easy money.

$35 trillion of national debt.

$1 trillion in annual interest payments alone to service that debt.

Cumulative inflation of 66.3% over the last 20 years (based on CPI, it's probably actually worse).

Highest "Home Price to Median Household Income" ratio in the last 70 years, currently higher than the last housing bubble.
Lobbying covers most of the corruption in the 1st world.

Accepting gifts is risky, they are often forbidden or at least need to be reported.

It is much easier to accept legal bribes - donations, speaker invitations, PAC support. Professional lobbying often includes legal knowledge that allows to offer such bribes legally.
The Network Time Protocol: What Times Are It?
> I'm an online dev for multiplayer games, and I disagree with your take. In my experience the sheer number of bugs we've seen from "I tested it in the local only build mode so it's fine" and the impact that has on the project makes it worth _not_ supporting an offline mode. I'm not an exec, but practicing good habits during development (there's a phase where it's not worth it sure, but by the time you're on a live project...) makes actually building a game easier.

Both should be available cause yes, you need to test like you said. But if I'm setting up skinning on a character or cloth simulation on a cape, I want my turn around time as fast as possible from DCC to engine. Maybe I just want to validate my PBR materials with a specific level's lighting rig and baked GI/reflection probes. Those specific examples are client side only, so I absolutely want that to work on an offline build. The longer a roundtrip to the engine takes for content (including the time it takes to start the game up), the harder it is to iterate and thus quality also falls. Forcing online always for devs at the very least, makes booting the game slower (or just fail) and you need to reboot the game constantly (even with hot reload). That cost adds up quick across many devs and many years. You need both lest you drive your artists and TAs insane. My last company hemorrhaged artists to literally go work next door on very similar styled art content from one live service game to another just because our tools were so exhausting to them to roundtrip, and online wasn't even forced!

>https://x.com/Pilestedt/status/1760077808146014340 - helldivers backend team was 4 people. _That's_ the point of this newfangled tech.

WoW took 4-5 years to develop with "The original World of Warcraft was created by a team of 40 people, which eventually doubled in size as the launch drew close."
https://www.polygon.com/2020/1/20/21070494/world-of-warcraft...

Where as as Helldivers 2 has about 100 devs at the end of development taking 8 years according to their CEO. So not seeing the wins there. In terms of concurrent players around launch, WoW had around 0.5 million within months and Helldivers 2 seemed to have peaked at 0.75 million across PC and PS5. 19 years apart and not really seeing that 5x in practice... None of this suggests to me that this "tech" is a useful as many think.

> Handwaving away this problem doesn't make it just og away.

I mean, we have tons of precedent of these middleware licenses working just fine when redistributed as binaries to users' devices, so how is this handwavy? Like yes, there's an issue with already shipped games that make use of such licenses, but after such a law passes, the licenses will have to adapt to licenses similar to what already exist. And prior to this recent problem in games, middleware licenses worked just fine too and often shipped with server binaries. These licenses are not the norm as explained by all the middleware that does get packaged with almost every game today...
Letters of recommendation are one of the best use cases of LLMs because they are, by definition, full of bullshit and formalism, and with very little actual content.

A fan letter, especially one from a child, is the opposite of that. That's the reason so many people find the ad appalling.

Because C++ has no way to compatibly adjust its syntax, it's important to them to reuse keywords where possible.

So enum and class were two existing keywords whereas scoped would be a new keyword.

There's also a sentiment among C++ proponents that classes (a user defined product type with implementation inheritance) are all you really need anyway.
We are perfectly capable of producing reasonably secure systems, but the present situation made that not cost-effective. It is strictly cheaper to apply security as an after-thought or even ignore the issue completely and just pay off the penalties later.

The Fed is haunted by the ghost of inflation from the 70s and 80s.

https://www.federalreservehistory.org/essays/great-inflation

And the interest rates - https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FEDFUNDS

And you'll see in that the "ok, it's going in the right direction, cut the rate, and inflation spikes again ... " and doing this again and again. My crystal ball says that this will be a slow backing off rather than trying to revisit what the 80s had.

That said, with monetary policy, there are very few knobs to turn. Fiscal policy has as many knobs to turn as they want, but is mired in politics and (not infrequently) goals that work out of alignment with the central bank's goals.
Time for hexadecimal.
I’ve been a Schwab user for years, and was a TDA user as well before the merger. TDA had just as many issues like this. Don’t let your recency bias fool you.

Schwab is overall a great bank and brokerage. Fidelity’s user experience quite frankly is much worse, as is E-Trade’s. Vanguard is even worse than those. IBKR looks nice, but the hassle hasn’t been worth it to me. Schwab has been great for me so far.
> Would love a linguistic interpretation of what is going on with that word

It’s a jumble caused by well-placed concerns around money in politics being written about by misinformed journalists [1]. Then the term gained political cachet on the left and, more recently, far right, which propagated its mis-use.

I'm not a big fan of forcing private entities to relinquish their property. There has to be a really solid reason for it (such as that the owner is going to use it in a way that is harmful to others).

But buying it? That would be OK.

I grew up in rural farmland of Michigan. Guess what. I rode a bicycle or walked. To and from school (I lived _just_ inside city limits which meant the buses were off-limits to me). To my friends house. To my friends house a township away (15 miles). Chauffeur? LOL. Sure. Sometimes my parents drove me, and yes I did spend time behind a screen (I was on many local BBS's). But I also spent hours each day outside.

Did this change in the winter? Nope. I still often rode my bicycle to school. On days where there was too much snow I'd have to leave earlier to deal with the hike. Sometimes a friend might notice me and pick me up.

I was definitely the weirdo in school (not a out transgender kid in the 1990's no way), but I still had friends. I wasn't isolated in any way.

Source: Direct, firsthand experience. Guess what. In life, your mileage may vary. Just because you experienced something one way doesn't mean everybody else experiences it the same way.

I struggle to understand MSFTs liability here. Can anyone explain to me how Microsoft would be liable for Delta’s outage?
That case doesn’t muddy the water, because it doesn’t address the requirements of bribery law at all. In the trial below, the prosecutors disavowed that they were proceeding on a bribery theory. The jury was never instructed about the required elements of bribery.

The only thing the Supreme Court decided in that case was whether that specific statute encompasses a gratuity theory. That’s illegal for federal officials under a different statute that was not invoked in this case.
True.

Though - judging by endless charity CEO scandals - there are plenty of individuals doing very well indeed. While claiming to be doing good.

And there is a critical difference between asserting that (1) the construction workers busy paving roads to Brimstone City are individually underpaid, vs. (2) the total worker payroll is not a hell of a lot of money.

How the music industry learned to love piracy
As a long-time Schwab user, one thing I was shocked by is that the login flow silently truncates the password to eight characters. I found this since I tend to have complex suffixes I rotate around, and one day I was able to login with the wrong suffix and even with no suffix at all. This must be due to some legacy process only allowing eight characters.
Their FAQ talks about using games as the first step in fighting companies discontinuing services of various kinds (not only cultural products).

It is true there is a cultural aspect for games and they mention it, but if a regulation like this passes, then it is easy to imagine what other regulations would be pushed next.

Yes it could be great for consumers, but too many regulations means it becomes harder to start and do businesses and the advantages fall to the established players and in the end there are less options in the market(s) due to monopolies so the consumer is actually worse off.

Congrats on the hot sauce results! I made my own last summer too (first time making a sauce, I previously made Chilli Jams from my home grown peppers) and last summer I had a very productive Wraith chilli plant which produce pods far too hot to do much else with so I found a recipe I wanted to try.

I didn't lacto-ferment them but I did make one similar to your mango one (I used a fresh pineapple and fresh mango plus some honey and IIRC cumin) and like yourself, found it one of the most amazing sauces I've ever had.

It was sweet and tangy, super flavourful and HOT AS HELL! I put it on everything and because of the "chilli high" I was getting from it decided to nickname it Pineapple Express.

I was hoping to make another batch this season but the plant, despite over-wintering well, has barely grown and is only just now producing flowers which I'm pretty sure will produce very small pods if they are even successful...
Firebricks work well for time-shifting heat. The rate of heat dispersal can be controlled by insulation of radiating surfaces.
Won't do much. Calling an office has marginal value as we tended to ignore those kinds of complaints.

If someone actually wanted to do something, they'd either have to show that they are a donor (but at that point you may as well donate to their opponent during primaries) or truly organize and become an advocate (but at that point you may as well run for office).

Personally, I'd love to run on a campaign financing reform platform, but there is just too much inertia, and the existing marble cake federalism makes it even more difficult.
