I had a couple issues for a Couple of days when I moved into my current places until the post office fixed it. We just brought a copy of the lease and they accepted that. Every address needs to be registered with Auspost pretty sure and a lot businesses look up in that if they're doing any kind of checks.

Google maps however: I was working on a tool to speed up filling addresses into a CRM using google autoccomplete/places, and basically found all the bugs I could just on my own address.

Autocomplete is just for suggestions as you type. Places API gives you distinct locations but you can take the id's from autocomplete and pass them to places to get full address info.

* Autocomplete and Places are not always in sync, so sometimes autocomplete gives you an place id that Places API no longer recognised and would 404.
* Some place ids are sythesized, these usually work, but part of the address info is encoded in the ID and you can't guartee these id's will last.
* My address would autocomplete "This Street East, Suburb" but the ID would give "This Street, East Suburb" a different street and suburb.
* Any address with a Unit number: so every apartment building duplex etc, would Simple forget the Unit number on autocomplete. As google didn't a db of all the werid types of unit numbers we have in Australia it just accepted what you typed before the / (So there's different types of unit names: LOT, UNIT, SUITE etc but Australia post recommends only using this format: 5/2 where 5 is unit 2 is street number). Until you hit complete then it would just forget it. Then found it handles it even when the unit number isn't only digits. (eg 2a/21)
* Completely confused if the address "Doesn't exist" yet. Our product was sometimes used for new buildings that wern't done yet and deliver address was for a street in a housing development. It got real confused then.

I could work around nearly all of these. But so many apps does it come up in that I have to fix or override (I've only ran into one site that refused to accept my address with a Google lookup).

Worst cases is however. Tried ordering meds through an app: it sends the script to a Chemist near you and orders through doordash. I can see on my order the correct address in the Chemist app. I get a call from the doordash guy saying there's no unit number and sure enough the doordash status page doesn't have the unit number (and the location marking is wrong, which I assume is related)
A second time i order fast food through the companies website, as their menulog was disabled. And that also ended up on doordash and ran into the same probrlem (and the person just left the food at a random fire exit of my building)
NYT sends AI startup Perplexity 'cease and desist' notice over content use
> the sun is absurdly bright during the day.

Yes, this is what makes it so hard to replace with artificial lighting! I enjoy that absurdly bright sunlight. My house has extra windows over most of my windows and these specifically allow that sunlight in to add ambient lighting. During daytime most of my house is fully illuminated even with the lights off and blinds drawn because of these upper windows. You might describe what I have as the exact opposite of an awning and it’s one of my favorite features.
It's different in the fact that PWAs needs to be setup by the website's developer.

I keep reading occasional people talk about Fireworks with a wistful bygone "what could have been" for raster + vector. That's older than my era (although I was old enough to grow up making Flash animations and games) so I never got to know Fireworks, but I do hope to finally build a worthy solution after all this time. The neat part is that, in Graphite, raster content (brushes, patterns, noise, filters, effects, Mandelbrot Set fractals, etc.) is procedurally generated on-the-fly at the current viewing resolution, just like vector content. So they both interact harmoniously in a way no other editor has been able to manage.
Smodem was a game changer. So was HS/Link. Being able to chat while still doing a download was awesome. Realizing that you can upload and download at the same time was awesome. When those protocols came out they blew my mind... and before that the first time I got the added speed from Zmodem over Xmodem I was amazed as well.

I sure miss those days. First modem was 2400 baud, so I was kind of a late comer.
I don’t think this is true. I live in the middle of nowhere, but there are homes an hour out further in nowhereness with addresses that I cannot imagine could ever receive mail. Those people all have PO boxes in town.
> your brokerage will lend you money at a very low rate, secured by the equity

I have not found one that will offer a very low rate, have you?

For example here are Schwab's rates for a loan against equity:

https://www.schwab.com/pledged-asset-line/rates

For 500K-1M rate is SOFR + 3.4%, so about 8.2%

For multimillionaires it gets better at SOFT + 2.4%, or about 7.2%

Not bad in this market but not one I'd call "very low"

Possibly there's an unpublished rate for billionaires, there usually is.

A study by researchers from the University of British Columbia (Canada) shows a link between drugs intended for diabetics and severe gastrointestinal diseases: pancreatitis, intestinal obstruction, biliary pathologies and gastroparesis.

Only fools would convince themselves a drug has no sideeffect.

The worst is that these drugs were created for legitimate use but are now being abused by what I would call lazy fat who can't get their finger out of their arse and start eating healthy.

When there is a natural, effective and no side effects alternative, why go the medication way.
Don't hate the player, hate the game. The social incentives are arranged such that individuals are encouraged to use shibboleths and loaded language of this nature lest they be branded as an enemy. Such is the consequence of rhetoric such as "silence is violence" or "if you're not with us, you're against us," that forces nonbinary folks to declare binary allegiance as either an Ally or an undesirable. Absence of such loaded language that clearly identifies one as an ally thus implies that they are an enemy, and rejects the possibility of a spectrum of views that exists between two extremes. Those who fail to declare or abstain are excommunicated and identified as hostile actors (irrespective of their own self-identification).

I agree with most of your comments. However, most tax authorities in highly advanced countries view income earned from rental property as passive income, regardless of how much work you need to do. This might be some minor deductions if you act as a real estate agent, but that is a lot of work in most jurisdictions, as real estate agency is normally a highly regulated area of work.

Everything that I read about real estate investing says you should aim for middle class housing, as the return-on-investment from rental cashflow is (normally) higher that more expensive housing. To be clear: My statement is only looking at rental cashflow, not capital appreciation. To me, there are both important, but separate concerns.
Yeah, it’s a completely [1] separate team (they do run a bunch of archiving projects that end up in the IA / Wayback Machine though). Just wanted to share – it’s sad there isn’t much more info though apart from some code; maybe worth looking into IRC logs?

I didn't bring 5 dollars cash the first time I took a plane to SF from the east coast. You end up watching a movie on a projector screen without sound. I end up reading through Microsoft foundation classes books. On the way back I had my 5 dollars ready.

The movie was about a brother who returns to a small town to visit his sister in a southern town. He ends up staying and helping her with the kids. But his irresponsible ways causes frustration with the sister and the kids he is watching. He leaves. End of movie.

Truly awful. I wonder what the first movie was like.

So this is actually shockingly similar to something that happened to me. I did a lot of back country travel with sketchy water and developed something close to dairy intolerant for more than 10 years to the point I wasn't sure if I had always had it. Eventually I got lucky on a test (for E. Coli not giardia) and the treatment was to go to nuclear on my intestines. That week wasn't fun. Now i can eat ice cream and dairy with out trouble. I'm not convinced that test was related to the 10 years of symptoms, but the hard reset on the gut definitely worked.

An AI prompted to say it's an archivist might not have the same legal weight as one saying it's a doctor or can identify toxic mushrooms, but the organization suffers by bringing in tech which doesn't help the employees - especially when a big part of their job is finding reliable, cite-able sources of information.

I'm reading a book by a papyrus expert (Stolen Fragments) and I was surprised by how they frame it as safeguarding history first, and the community accepting or rejecting lines of work based on that. If you're an archivist you are aware that AI is part of the future, but also you're planning to still be an archivist at the institution and want to shape what that looks like.

> My gains are realized each year via property tax assessments :)

You are confusing two very different things. You'll realize the gains (and have to pay taxes on) your house value increase only when you sell it. The fact that you were paying property taxes on it all along while owning it has nothing to do with that.
At the time the estate tax is being considered isn't that usually down to a single surviving individual? I imagine it's uncommon for a couple to die at once to qualify for the 27m exemption.

I've been looking for relief from abdominal pain, bloating, poorly formed movements, and breathing problems for well over a year now. It started right after a round of antibiotics, which strikes me as a very clear cause-and-effect situation involving some sort of microbial imbalance.

I don't think restrictive diets are a great idea, because I want to stay healthy otherwise and ultimately restore that balance, but curiously enough, I've found that wheat might be exacerbating some of these symptoms—despite eating it without issue my whole life.

No matter how neutrally and deferentially I approach doctors with this info, I'm treated like a paranoiac for merely inquiring about certain possibilities like so-called SIBO. I'm pretty sure I'd get dragged straight to the loony bin if I ever mentioned parasites.

Estonian E-citizenship saved my butt a few years ago when due to fire I was forced to be homeless in the US, and as a nomadic van dweller found it very hard without a physical address and documents to prove I exist. My Estonian E-citizenship was all I had left, and offered me a lifeline when I got forced into a nomadic lifestyle without a permanent physical address. This sucks, especially in a country like the U.S., where residency requirements can hinder almost all essential activities. For someone like me working as a contract engineer, that access to e-services—like banking, digital signatures, and business registration allowed me to maintain some seamless continuity of professional operations throughout the ordeal. The digital infrastructure allowed me to maintain financial and legal stability, despite lacking a documents and a U.S. address. Estonian E-citizenship, as a US citizen was ironically easier to get than replacements for the national documents that were lost in the fire. Worth having! Pretty powerful tool for maintaining professional independence and resilience. Our systems in the U.S. seem totally cave man rock and stone in comparison.

The key difference here is whether your investment remains at risk. As long as the value of your investment is at risk, then the investment is considered unrealized.

Once you cash in your chips (sell) then the investment becomes realized.

Someone getting a loan against their stock portfolio is still at risk of loss of value of their holdings, therefore the investment gains remain unrealized.

There were a few things that need to be clarified as to how addresses are recorded. The author says:

> Because of Google, our address wasn’t even present for the USPS

In fact, USPS has its own database of addresses which Google most certainly solicits their data from. I know because I have dealt with customers who have found the same issue. We urge anyone with this issue to direct the issue to the USPS Address Management System Offices to file their address. Other services like those from Auctane (ShipStation, ShipEngine) references this data too.

Absolutely true. I generally insist on folks learning C and C++ interoperability before diving in to all the "Modern C or C++" goodness. It helps them in understanding what actually is going on "under the hood" and makes them a better programmer/debugger.

Linux kernel as much as possible tries not to parse or read external data (besides stuff like acpi tables, device trees, hardware registers). For networking, you might look at the iproute codebase to see how they do things like bring a network device up, or create a bridge device, add a route, et cetera.
