For years my own practice on sites that impose cookie pop-ups has been:

- Zap that element (uBo element zapper or custom CSS style rule via Stylus).

- Globally deny ALL cookies for that site, via uMatrix.

Note that uMatrix (and AFAIU Fireox) already block all third party cookies. This just makes that prejudice global to the site itself.

The number of sites for which I require some level of state preservation is parlous few. Hacker News itself is most of them, my Fediverse home the other.

I'm not sure about the legal aspects in your jurisdiction but in many others it is common for unions to aggregate this information and there are usually companies that do this or hook into the books and compare what different companies are paying for services and material they use that then sell back information about whether they could cut costs.
It's meant to represent the values associated with the keys being inserted. Having the "v" for "value" there helps to differentiate it.
You managed to ignore the rest of my comment, so appreciate the honesty.

I mean by "worst case" you could form an argument that says something like NYT is slightly center-left. And that's the best you can do.

The propaganda that the media is left-wing or left-wing extremists is just that, propaganda. On a related note, there are exactly 0 communist democrat candidates in the US.

In reality, most of our sources and policies on a federal level are strictly right-wing. This only gets more right-heavy when you consider that the US is the most right-leaning first world country.

What we, commonly, perceive as "right wing" is actually far-right politics. For example Fox News is not right-wing, they're far right. Trump isn't right-wing, he's far right. Biden isn't left-wing, he's center, etc.
Exactly, it gets more and more difficult the older you are and the more established the habit is, so helping your children overcome these issues early is very important and sets them up for a healthy lifestyle in adulthood. I have a friend in his 40s who is having strokes and is vehemently unwilling to eat a single vegetable. His food adversions are much worse than any child's.

I'm not saying it's easy, because it isn't. But it's very much possible.

I'm also not saying all food aversions need to be worked through, however, allowing your children to have a severely limited diet doesn't set them up for long-term success.

It depends on how interesting the thing I'm needing to focus on is. If it's super interesting, I just block out external stimuli, since it will actually aggravate me.

The flip side is if I'm doing something boring, I have to have some other distraction going to keep the dopamine flowing, because the regular task isn't creating it. It's usually something pretty simple, a background TV show (mythbusters/how it's made/DDD, etc), youtube build videos, or up-beat music. Something novel enough to keep me interested, but not so interesting that it takes my attention away from my target task.

This makes the assumption that by knowing a framework, you will be unable to learn how to use the language at large. This is not necessarily true - a person who has learned Laravel will probably figure out CakePHP or CodeIgniter in a weekend. They just prefer Laravel for their jobs, and that's a legitimate choice. They've also made the decision that, even though Laravel makes breaking changes over time, the productivity boosts are greater than the downtime.

Which is also a legitimate choice when Laravel upgrades have been automated for years for $29. https://laravelshift.com/

You can probably define locality in a way that MWI is nonlocal, but you can also definitely define it in a way such that MWI is local.

For me the most important thing about nonlocality is the lack of any "action at a distance", MWI satisfies this, but if you make more stringent demands it might not satisfy those.

“Alongside the factory are at least 18 portable methane gas generators, which visibly emit a steady stream of hazy smoke into the air…

She said this is the Environmental Protection Agency’s jurisdiction.

The Environmental Protection Agency told NPR it hasn’t issued air permits for these turbines, but after getting inquiries from media outlets and citizen groups it’s “looking into the matter.”

CGI effects are inevitably samey because any generation of them all get built on the same few tools from the same few vendors, largely by artists and animators trained to approach those tools in the same way, often chasing the mark established in the last big breakthrough hit and whatever new technological innovations it was built on.

Meanwhile, practical and hybrid effects have a much wider palette of material and techniques leverage hundreds of years of diversity and maturity in craft technique, and leave plenty of room for lead artists to apply their own personal creative signature.

We can assume CGI will eventually merge into that latter pool, but that won't happen until technological innovation plateaus and artists turn focus to clever innovations in technique and style instead.

From a US perspective, if Pave existed in a market where salaries weren't transparent, I would say yes, it's veering into being an anti-competitive/wage-fixing tool.

However, more and more states every year are introducing laws that require salary ranges on job listings. What that means is that Pave is basically just organizing the data that's already becoming public for job applicants and employers alike.

I was rejected from a recent YC startup for basically saying I am not going to put unnecessary nights and weekends. And after recently having a kid I definitely am never going to ever put unnecessary nights and weekends as frankly I just can't if I want to continue having a family.

Though this seems to be a more recent phenomenon of hustle culture. My company has worked with a couple dozen YC companies over the last 8 years and most seem to have a work hard and intensely during business hours but take it easy outside of that mindset. Which I think is the right mindset to have.

It's almost certainly for the companies to pay less money, but with a more generous reading, I think it could be argued that that doesn't necessarily have to come out of employee salaries. That data could be used to:

- Set reasonable ranges to find the right candidates they are looking for faster and minimize hiring friction

- Standardize payment levels in a way that reduces legal liability in certain states like Colorado/California. Or the most generous reading of "reduces legal liability" would be "promoting fairness".

- Reduce the time spent by HR/other teams of negotiating or setting salaries, as they can simply target some target like "we want to pay more than 60% of companies like us"

- For budgeting/forecasting with new hires, this allows companies to have more confidence in their estimates as they plan hiring.

- Some companies now offer calculators even before you're hired with what your salary/compensation might look like, such as https://posthog.com/handbook/people/compensation

But yes, overall I do believe that most companies also expect a general reduction in salaries when they use these tools.

Fascinating discovery. Bit of a nitpick/sanity check though:

"When compared to other previously sequenced Neanderthal genomes, Thorin’s genome most closely resembled an individual that was excavated roughly 1,000 miles to the northeast in Gibraltar. Slimak speculates that Thorin’s population likely migrated south to France from Gibraltar."

Shouldn't this be southwest and north, respectively, instead?
I spent a long time looking for one (and also just a transflective/reflective monitor that would work well in full sunlight) and I'm dumbfounded that there's nothing available. We had the tech for this 25 years ago and it's supposedly way cheaper than lcds. Refresh rate and colour quality are lower than LCD/oleds, but surely the vast majority of the working population doesn't care all that much about how true to life colours are? Especially if it means that you can actually _see_ those colours in bright sunlight? I'm hoping something will be available in the coming years as I really enjoy working outside but under the current conditions it's not really possible.

There is no PHP at Amazon (at least not 2009-2016). It was evaluated before my time there and Perl Mason was chosen instead to replace C++. A bunch if that’s still appears to exist (many paths that start with gp/) but a lot was being rebuilt in various internal Java frameworks. I know AWS had some rails apps that were being migrated to Java a decade ago, but I don’t think I ever encountered PHP (and I came in as a programmer primarily writing PHP).
Those central and south american civil wars against communism were dirty, and consistent with how people there fought. CIA torture progams at black sites continue to the modern day where they let the local authorities use their own ethics in interrogations. CIA's history is ugly, but mostly because they partner with the local devils they know. However, communists never won elections, they manipulated them, and anyone familiar with 20th century history knows fighting communist expansion was a just war.

It appears CIA has stared into the abyss a bit too long and have turned their tactics against americans though. First with mk-ultra, then with the crack epidemic, and then with tolerating the fentanyl crisis by picking winners in the cartels and literally training the Zeta cartel at WHINSEC, along with abetting a refugee crisis to secure electoral influence for whoever the anti-populist party is.

The rationale appears to be they think they come out on top as the central committee if they orchestrate 20th century totalitarian playbooks in the west and become, as Karl Rove famously said, "history's actors." Nations needed their intelligence services, but in a post-national framework, many parts of them have become malignant. People should take heed of what is done on their behalf as after decades of dealing with devils to fight totalitarian communism, their chickens appear to be coming home to roost.

Maybe you want to do 3 copies, not two. Maybe you want to use two different archival formats such as tar and LTFS, just in case. Maybe you want to source your media from both available producers (Sony and Fuji) because in the long run, maybe one or the other may grow some funky error mode or corruption problem. Etc.

Databases are generally not what k8s is intended for: rapidly scalable stateless servers. There's real concerns with operators I've seen as to all the different conditions (expansions, failover, backups, detailed health checks, persistent disk management, version upgrades, boundary conditions like full disks, and if course encryption headaches).

I am not a k8s expert, I was involved with an attempt to migrate Cassandra to k8s and did not like the operator I saw at the time.

Every db system has very specific nuances in data storage, io optimization, bandwidth for requests and backups, etc. a one size fits all operator project seems like it will invite trouble.
In my 25+ years in this industry, there's one thing I've learned: starting something isn't all that difficult, however, shutting something down is nearly impossible. For example, brilliant people put a lot of time end effort into IPv6. But that time and effort is nothing compared to what it's gonna take to completely shut down IPv4. And I've dealt with this throughout my entire career: "We can't shut down that Apache v1.3 server because a single client used it once 6 years ago!"
