>I used to walk home from school. Got robbed at gun point several times. Jumped for my skin color numerous times. Had a neighborhood buddy who got stabbed three times on his way home and survived.

Where was this? Most places in the US are not this susceptible to random violence. In the suburban city I grew up in, I'd walk home from school and I never saw a firearm in public when I was a kid, aside from those carried by police.
I think the usual notation works better for this lemma.
My responses in order:
1. When did you actually decide to marry your partner (if you've even decided)? If this decision occurred after you returned from Canada, then there's no requirement to wait 90 days.
2. Yes.
3. This is changing but now it seems to be taking at least 6 months and creeping to 9 months and even longer to an advance parole.
Why Has Sci-Fi TV Stopped Imagining Our Future?
It's possible it's QWERTY-related as a sibling suggests, but there's also precedent for this specific kind of sound change in many dialects of English: /d/ is a stop consonant, which are commonly inserted in the middle of a nasal (/n/) and fricative (/f/), and in particular /d/ is produced with the tip of the tongue the same way that /n/ is, so it and /t/ (the unvoiced variant) are the most likely stop consonants to be inserted after /n/.

Other examples of this effect:

Samson -> Sampson

prince -> prints

hamster -> hampster

warmth -> warmpth

fence -> fents
YouTube downloaders have existed since the dawn of YouTube. And I really don't think they have jumped in popularity recently or anything.
Firefox seems to be good enough - is there anyone who wants to fork Firefox out of a frustration over how it handles some web standard and a feeling that they could do it better?

Hard forking a browser and implementing all future features on your own is daunting enough that even Microsoft - a company with more engineering resources than all but a handful of others, and for whom having a branded browser is existentially important - decided not to do it and just to reskin Chrome.

So I expect that any truly new browser comes not out of a desire to improve Firefox or Chromium, but from an independent, not economically useful, hacker-driven desire to create something cool. Either Ladybird or someone's RIIR project.

Career Advice in 2025
After studying my target language on and off over the years with an Anki deck and not getting too far, I started “immersing” in my target language in a similar manner in addition to Anki a little over a month ago. I listen to native podcasts and audio ripped from native TV shows, at least an hour per day but occasionally 2-3 hours, and while it’s not as active as your method (I usually listen while preparing meals and eating), the difference it’s made in this short time has been remarkable. Reading appropriate level native written content helps too.

I feel like I’m starting to get an actual grip on the language instead of just being able to get the broad strokes of what someone is saying by latching onto vocab I’ve memorized, and while I wouldn’t say I’m comfortable with trying to hold a conversation yet it’s already dramatically improved my ability to compose understandable sentences.
That's always a tough question because sometimes downgrading can actually slow down the process while USCIS gets around to reviewing the downgrading request. If the EB2 date isn't too far off, then it might make sense to wait. There have been times when USCIS encouraged people to downgrade and reviewed them quickly but I don't expect that to happen again any time soon.
It's autism that is said that it can be weaponized; the population is armed. But arming population does not necessarily increase violence within it: compare with highly armed populations of Switzerland and Israel.

The problem of the US is indeed with high incarceration rates, long sentences, bad prisons where more hardened criminals educate the newcomers to be more efficient criminals; this whole system is screwed, and needs to be replaced.

Lack of access to health care, while increasing mortality and decreasing morale, is not violence; rather, it's a lack of mercy, and lack of resources. That same lack of resources limits access to (quality) health care in EU, but in different ways: long wait times, limited prescription of expensive but efficacious drugs, etc.

You said it yourself - it'd be nice if YouTube stopped and thought about what it could be doing differently to not drive as many people towards things like this. As I said elsewhere, the root cause isn't the people developing these frontends, it's the fact that the existing official frontend leaves users wanting something else.
I miss positive vibes sci-fi. Granted there has to be some conflict, but so much media (even non sci-fi) is apocalyptic and ominous and it's just too easy to have everything be dark (and to some extent every character a jerk) and so on.

To be fair to the vendors, Github makes it extremely difficult to do the right thing here. I built a repo/commit/pr-analysis tool (https://dev.log.xyz) and it took a lot of effort to make it so that "iff you can see it in Github you can see it in Devlog." The entire experience was beyond frustrating.

Github also makes their OAuth permissions picker extremely confusing. When I "login with Github" I am never sure exactly what I'm sharing, from which organizations I'm a member of.
People went with the green bin initiative in the US, perhaps elsewhere. we switched to more fuel efficient cars in general when fuel became more expensive.

They are constantly testing pushing other things into the subscription box.

What I want is it to only show me videos. Now, it also shows shorts, and also now “community posts” which are frequently just self-promotion and useless polls that drive engagement. I’ve started unsubscribing from anyone that uses those features too much. I want videos not “check out my twitch channel” and “want more merch? Check out my merch! Also this is a poll so that you will click it”

One channel I follow got some new “comments from the community” kind of feature, and suddenly posts from anyone on YouTube were showing up in my sub box because they also subscribed to the same creator. All of the posts were image posts that were blatantly rule breaking spam, or comments like “why is this a feature”. None of them were from anyone I intentionally followed. Literally just random internet comments as a huge section in my sub-box. I instantly unsubscribed.

YouTube REALLY wants to shove other content into the “subscription box” because as-is it lets you avoid all the algorithmic clickbait.
There are tools to make your own.
This is spot on. As a baby, you typically have two affectionate caretakers who dedicate a significant amount of their time to teaching you language/words, and also shower you with love/praise/attention for every little bit of incremental progress. Also, you're in an immersion program: you often can't communicate your wants/needs until you've learned the language, which adds another layer of incentive.

As an adult, if you were sent to an immersion program in a foreign country with two full-time foreign tutors/caretakers who loved you, like legitimately loved you with all their hearts, you would pick up that new language pretty darn quick.

The AP has no right to participate in a press conference put on by the administration, just like a random person can’t show up. Not only can they be excluded, but there is also no requirement that the administration even do news conferences at all. That doesn’t mean any right of the press has been infringed. As I said, they still can publish whatever they want.

> By repeatedly threatening or even attacking it, you are attacking the very fabric of democracy.

You’re suggesting that the press is above criticism, and I disagree. I think the press does need to be held accountable when they are biased or spread misinformation or do bad work to chase clicks, for example. But this is different from their rights being infringed. Just like the press can say what they want, with only some exceptions, so can the administration. That seems balanced to me.

> Trump decides unilaterally by issuing decrees. This is closer to a dictatorship than a democracy.

Why is it that executive orders are executive orders under one administration but “decrees” under another?

> Moreover, he decides so quickly that the DOJ cannot ensure that the Constitution and Human rights are respected.

This isn’t the DOJ’s job. If someone thinks their legal rights are violated by an executive order, they can file a lawsuit and fight it in the courts. There is also no such thing as “ensuring human rights” in American law - there’s just enforcement of the laws passed by Congress and upholding the constitution (which may include ensuring human rights but it might mean something different from what you intend).

This is a tangent, but I want to point out that the previous administration was the one who repeatedly violated the constitution - for example when Biden and his appointees would yell at tech companies to pressure them into censoring the public (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/mark-zuckerbe...). That’s literally a violation of the most important right in the US constitution.

> Democracy also needs time to make decisions, and to make decisions collectively (at least in a parliamentary way).

Democracy did make a decision - to elect Trump. I don’t think democracy requires every single daily decision of the administration to be reviewed - that’s just impractical, and no country does that. The executive branch has the right to do its job.

> Trump is attacking free speech by banning the use of some terms in emails, attacking schools (e.g. Columbia) and threatening companies with DEI programs.

You’re mixing a few different things here. A president banning things like DEI in their own agencies is legal. A president removing funding for schools who break the law or enable criminals, as was the case in Columbia, is legal. There’s no unlimited right for any school to get free taxpayer money. And as for companies with DEI programs - given that many of those companies break the law by discriminating based on race and gender as part of their DEI programs, they deserve punishment under the law. You framed this as “threatening” them, but I view it as simply holding them accountable.

I bet, but I'm talking about devices where the manufacturer tries to shave off every cent to price their products competitively. And then you have big meetings where you have to push back on storage being reduced by a further 2 MiB. At least that's something I've seen working in the embedded space. Storing an additional firmware image, be it only a few megabytes, is unfortunately often off the table there.

That's what we do at Latudio! [0]

We've created an app with listening-first approach and added some very useful features on top of that, like showing a sentence when requested and saving unknown words for later practicing.

There are three exercise types, one is prerecorded conversation where you pick one side and record your pronounciation so you can compare it with a native speaker.

I'd be curious to hear what you think about it.

A lot of the article’s findings about written translations and written transcriptions reflect my own anecdotes as a Korean language student. Listening and reading are distinctly separate skills but educational materials sometimes try to couple them together as interchangeable parts.

I’ve been working on a spaced repetition system that focuses exclusively on listening and speaking skills. It is not quite spicy enough to remove ALL writing (shown at the end of the review), but quizzes are done blind without showing written transcriptions.

The Zen fork should be based on the Mullvad browser, which is itself a fork of Firefox, or the Tor Browser, same thing I guess. Or they should collaborate. It would be nice to have the UI improvements on an already more privacy focused fork.
I use a lot of comments during development, but rarely keep them around in final production code. As features become stable, I tend to subconsciously delete them in the underlying areas.

My rationalization is that source control has already captured this history, and if someone really wanted to see what I was thinking, they could review the commit(s) for that file and get a perfect picture.

There are some places where I think comments should persist, such as where you expect future developers (yourself) will be breaking ground again for additional features. Things like "TODO: New Components go here" on a switch statement, or "Review the following issue # for change process around this type" located at the top of a very important piece of code.

The HTML part of it perhaps but tiddlywiki is also about connecting ideas.

I think this focuses much more on the standalone HTML part of it.

In the same vein, one could also distribute P2P apps via a standalone HTML file by hooking it up via WebTorrent and using their STUN servers. Or at least, I know that it's possible in the past. Just an example, standalone HTML files can be fully fledged apps is my point.
