I don't know the ins-and outs of how audioContext is implemented but it's got a lot in there to be very clever and dynamic, playing a notification chime seems like that feels like drawing an svg with D3 instead of img href *.svg. I wonder if there's a serviceWorker hook that could register simple repeatable stuff like notification handlers much lower down on a more efficient API.

What a remarkable headline.

How far back do we have to go to find Google respecting privacy?

They as I recall were once highly thought of and respected, but it was about the year 2000.
The headline, although it's from the original article, is misleading. This is one of the guardian's series of author/artist/musician interviews, usually on the occasion of their new release. in this case the novelist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, related to her upcoming book "Dream Count". There is some stuff about Cancel Culture in there, but it's not the point of the article.
I went to the branch in Phnom Penh years ago. Basically the same format as described in the article, including the karaoke like rock performance. I recall there was dog on the menu. Otherwise it's your typical dystopian experience.

The point is this a solved problem in every other paint program out there since Xerox, no one is asking for drawing SVG.

But it never gets sorted out due to whatever ideologic feeling Gimp developers have with offering only paths as option.
Well the question is if it relies on the system Python, or if it ships its own version.

It’s a different tradeoff. I come from a country with a weak passport, which limits my opportunities a lot. It’s hard to explain that to someone who can travel wherever they want, so it’s a bit different for me.

When visas are tied to jobs, getting laid off means something completely different—even in a good labor market. I had to move from the US to one of those countries with strong labor protections. But I agree that salaries take a massive hit because of this, and opportunities are reduced too.

I’ve seen the opposite as well—people losing their residence permits and healthcare coverage, and then going bankrupt after a layoff. For me, lower pay for better labor protection is a sensible tradeoff. But of course, your mileage may vary.

This might be less of a problem than you would expect.

Pakistan, for example, is currently experiencing a massive solar boom. Their electricity grid has been notoriously unreliable in the past, so the moment solar panels and batteries became cheap enough just about everyone chose distributed solar. It is now the world's sixth-largest solar market, despite having the world's 42nd-largest GDP.

The goal in poor countries isn't dismantling fossil fuel plants - those never grew beyond a rounding error. The goal is to avoid building new fossil fuel plants as their economies grow, and that's a lot easier now that solar has become the cheapest source of electricity. Their old power plants will eventually close down, but it's not a priority on a global scale.
At the bottom, under related coverage, I found a link to a subsequent article mentioning his return to the tribe. There is a video at the top of that article.
Are you just trying to bait people into political flamewars?

> Recently, a member of the owning class did a literal actual Hitler salute on stage twice, and the closest the mass media came to calling a spade a spade was saying things like "alleged resemblance to a Roman salute".

It took me literally 2 seconds to google for an example of mass media calling it a "Nazi salute". So you're basically just lying to promote your political agenda.

As I've already stated, the only point I was trying to make is that every stock compensation program is structured differently. This was in response to an article that tried to offer very specific financial advice. I've consistently advised to not follow random internet article's advice and speak to an attorney. Are you saying that is bad advice?

On the other hand, you seem hell-bent on winning a pointless argument about my own personal experiences. We both know it has nothing to do with bad financial advice since I've offered none except to speak to an attorney. Again, do you disagree with that advice?

Also, IANAL but my impression is that modern RSU's are a construct created by the legal community to get around and/or comply with the legalities of securities rules around employee compensation. There is not a singular approach on how they are structured. Your experiences may have been the result of lazy legal teams. I have no idea, but I don't doubt them.
Domestic goods have never been exempted, and the current law would make that illegal in the UK and the EU.

I personally think VAT should be scrapped and replaced with higher capital gains and inheritance taxes, but at least I'm going to stick to the reality of why VAT is problematic, not just make dumb stuff up.
Data centers will pretty much absorb any person with military nuclear power experience, even cases of people who completely washed out of the program.

As for nuclear missile programs in this case, I'm pretty positive that field will still have similar desirable high points. Reliability, understanding procedures, actually understanding procedures to know when/how/why scripts are broken in some cases, and having such socially toxic work environment that even an Amazon job feels like fresh air.

This is all besides the point that Terraform's biggest weakness is refactoring large workspaces into multiple smaller workspaces. Transitioning IDs from one workspace to another, at scale, is annoying to say the least. The only remotely feasible generic solution here would be to treat statefiles as tables, write migrations as SQL, and use pre-existing tooling for database migrations and rollbacks... Maybe I'll write something like that someday.
And there's generally a combination of principles involved, and different speedrunners and communities will prioritise different ones:

Fairness: generally speaking the competition wants to be fair. Part of this is just having a consistent set of enforced rules, but it also comes down to decisions about timing and allowing or disallowing certain tricks: if how fast part of a game is depends on how fast your hardware is, for example (whether by a trick working or simply lag), then most communities will try to eliminate this effect by banning hardware-dependent tricks or adjusting timing rules to remove loading times.

Competition: At the end of the day speedrunning is a competition around a game, so there's a general resistance to modifying the game itself, or e.g. use of external tools to assist the player beyond what was intended by the developer. But that will sometimes be compromised if there's some aspect of the game which badly affects other goals.

Fun: At the end of the day, speedruns are something that should be fun and rewarding to play and watch. So if the optimal run of a game becomes unfun to play or watch, then generally something will be done about it, whether by banning the trick which is unfun or by allowing something which alleviates the pain point (sometimes this even verges into health concerns: some pokemon games, for example, have very long runs with a huge amount of button-mashing to get through dialogue quickly, and RSI is a very real concern which means that turbo controllers which automate that are sometimes allowed). This can go as far as patching the game to remove particularly unfun or RNG-heavy parts, though it's rare.

And of course you can have different categories which will focus on different aspects of this, especially as different runners and watchers will have different ideas on what is fun: apart from what counts as 'beating the game' (any%, 100%, 'true ending', whatever), there's different levels of what other compromises are allowed. And it can get pretty contentious: from hardcore 'play the game as intended' purists to arbitrary-code-execution TASers, everyone has a different idea about what they enjoy in the competition, and different games can have strengths in each area of focus.
totally, the original post and this title are engagement bait.
I can try. Cancel culture is interfering with others communication. If Andrew Tate, Milo Yanopulis, Ta neshi coates or Ibram Kendi want to spew bullshits or lies and there are gullible enough people to listen to them - then you as a third person doing your best to deplatform them - trying to push them away from the discourse is a cancel culture. Rejection of ideas is a lone communist wacko tankie shouting at Hyde park and nobody listening to him.

When I was growing up, we lived within 6km line of sight from a powerful AM broadcaster on 660KHZ.

By some stroke of fortune, our woodstove smoke pipe and the tinfoil backed insulation of the house,
Along with the grounded base but rusty bolted on top of the woodstove created some kind of resonant receiver at that frequency. It would generate sufficient voltage to deliver the occasional electrical shock, which was very mysterious because we had no idea how this stove could shock you, even when the mains were turned off.

The mystery of the source of the power was shocks when we built a wire drying rack above the stove, which acted as a sound transducer. With the glove rack, we were treated to 24/7 programming, mostly community oriented stuff like “problem corner”(community issue discussion) bush relay messages for remote listeners outside of telephone reach, “tradio” (call in radio Craigslist, basically), news shows, talk shows, and some occasional music.

To me, it was just completely normal, never having known anything else besides electrocution hazard wood stoves and radio show mitten racks lol. It did fuel a fascination for electronics, though, so by the time I was seven I was an avid reader of popular electronics magazine. Forrest Mims. What a treasure of an engineer.

The idea that there is an authority that will save you might create bad habits. In adult world there is no such authority and bullies run the world. Either you garnish support from the bystanders, or you bully back, I don't know the correct implementation either. Maybe bullies deserve the world and shouldn't be treated so negatively in our narratives.

Also you're completely missing the bystanders B in your analysis. Without them there is no bullying. Then it just becomes robbery or molestation.

Maybe we need more bullies, not less, to make our system more resilience against them.
I think that incentive is part of the problem. Federal employees should get paid more with a reasonable expectation of being fired. The amount of people I know in government positions who give 0 consideration to the quality of their work because they know they won’t be fired astounds me.
> I definitely would not ever go that fast in town, even down a hill, because it's generally not safe for the people around me.

If you're on a bike, then you should also prioritise your own safety as you're likely to come off worse even when colliding with a pedestrian.

Anecdata time: my brother (over 60 years old and a very experienced cyclist) was heading down a hill, presumably at some speed and a young boy stepped out in front of him. They collided and my brother came off and ended up with a broken collar bone, broken rib, collapsed lung and minor concussion (he's fully recovered now). The kid received no damage apart from bruising AFAIK.
Here's what you said:

> the closest the mass media came to calling a spade a spade was saying things like "alleged resemblance to a Roman salute".

Here's the Guardian:

> ‘The gesture speaks for itself’: Germans respond to Musk’s apparent Nazi salute

Can you see how you didn't accurately describe the text "apparent Nazi salute" when you chose the words "alleged resemblance to a Roman salute"?

There's a word for what you did. It's "lying".
Here's one from a related article on the site: https://apnews.com/video/isolated-indigenous-man-returns-to-...
Right. If you want a safer language than C for your safety-critical embedded code, the obvious choice is Ada. The article even mentions Ada specifically.
As a counterpoint, I find custom formats to often be nicer than reusing generic ones: atomic values (individual lexemes, primitive types: strings, numbers, etc) tend to have custom formats or semantic restrictions anyway (say, dates, length-limited strings, range-limited numbers, though in some cases numbers are also just restricted strings), so that part is mostly handled from scratch either way. And then there is composition, with JSON--apparently the most popular format now--not having a standard way to encode sum types, so you basically have to hammer those on top. At which point it feels like building on top of a JSON structure instead of building on top of a sequence of characters, but not in a very different way: sometimes it is more helpful in some parts, sometimes adds more clutter than needed. Likewise with XML: it is not uncommon to see something like <my-custom-format>a string in a custom format here, or even a base64-encoded blob</my-custom-format>.

In practice it is easier to use JSON for interfaces, since for someone unfamiliar with parsing it is less work to sort out on the other end, and then you have at least a partially specified structure, the rest can be easier to specify (with JSON schema, for instance), there are readily available libraries and tools to work with it, to do at least some of the parsing without writing a parser. But I think cleaner interfaces can be achieved with custom formats.
Do humanoid robots in America have any economic benefit over the exact same robots in, say, Mexico? Or on a lights-out factory on the ocean floor in international waters? Or on the moon?

Even if they're physically in the US, are these robots driven by AI, or remote control? If the former, does this re-industrialisation create any jobs? If the latter, why hire Americans to control the robots rather than much cheaper Cubans or Vietnamese or Salvadorans?
> It is just every generation is a little worst than previous one.

Is it, though?

I mean, the blog post reads like a generic smear campaign targeting a whole generation. The telltale sign is that it cherry-picks some click bait sentences, but fails to draw any baseline and comparison.

Let's take a look at the survey from another perspective. From the same blog post, it seems they are being subjected to an interview process that is appallingly poor and outright abusive, and GenZs opt to just not entertain those and simply ditch them altogether.

If other generations aren't doing that, they seem to not have any self respect whereas GenZ does.

The cherry on top: the conclusions mentions "rising salary expectations" as a kind of side note as a requirement to cater GenZs? So the post starts to drag the whole generation through the mud, complaining that the ditch the interview process which is admittedly too stressful to entertain, but out of nowhere the solution is... Offer them a higher salary to convince them to tolerate the process?

There's a lot to unpack there, and it's not eye contact and turning on cameras. It's something completely different, that says more about recruiters and their practices than whoever they are hiring.
I would like to argue that we go about education and the educational institutions the wrong way, but I really can't, I have no backing except my own experiences.

What I think/feel/sense/intuit is that kindergarten, preschool and the first years of school should focus entirely on how to interact with other people one-on-one and in groups with respect for everyone including yourself.

I suspect there is a lot to learn from from what we are trying to develop around sexual consent wrt setting and enforcing boundaries.

With more recent societal understanding around mental health, generational trauma, neurodivergence I think it would be possible to achieve quite big changes around this topic.
And then I began to wonder what if we could isolate a whole country from the effects of LLMs. I know, impossible, but what if. They get to keep the old internet and all. A fork in the road. Just no LLMs at all. I wonder, after a few decades, how it would turn out comparatively to the rest of the world.

Or what about no internet? No computers? Would that country really turn out that bad?

Hubris at the individual level is rather easy to discern. At the civilizational level, it's a bit harder.

The cabal at Jane Street keeps getting dirtier and nastier. For those of us who happen to have known them from their ivy league days at MIT and Harvard on to predictably careers at JS, HRT or Five Rings, no surprises here.

They all 1)ran student clubs, often time starting their own if they had to, but couldn't care less about the mission or welfare of the group, just so it'd be show leadership skills. They all 2) swore allegiance to Effective Altruism mental without ever volunteering a minute to any worthy cause, most interestingly, 3)interbred only among themselves, possibly because they're too smart to associate with other students.

I find it amazing just how just a few firms on Wall Street seem to fish out all sorts of sociopaths right of ivy league grads. SBF(MIT), R-Yoo brothers (Harvard), happen to have made it to the news so far, but there are new generations coming right behind them - just look for Effective Altruism on their LinkedIn profile.

A better solution is to not tie visas to jobs. While at it, also stop tying healthcare insurance to jobs.

As someone from a country with strong labor protections, I'm in favor of making it easier to fire people. There's too much dead weight around in companies here. But being fired shouldn't be a life threatening event.
Week numbers are very useful for static holiday periods like the kid's school fall vacation and winter vacation. In my area, they are always in week 8 and week 40, and as such it's easier to plan accordingly. And my summer vacation is usually weeks 28-30.

Just make sure to turn on week number in your calendar applications, then it might be more useful to you.

What Boomers advocated for was outright employer abuse, and they sold subservience as a survival strategy.

Their life of subservience and shit-taking got them here, they feel they earned their dues, and they want to have their day fishing it out instead of taking it.
