Or, if you want to prove beyond any doubt that your logs, when audited, have not been tampered. Rather than do a blanket ban of batches 2-27 in case something happened with batches 3, 12, and 21 and you want to be safe, you can just ban those three specific batches because you know with certainty that your logs have never been altered.
Your primary product killing babies is not good for your brand, having absolute certainty in your supply chain seems like a very low-overhead no-brainer and an excellent way to shield yourself from lawsuits.
The number of legit voice calls I get is almost zero. The only reason I have a phone number at this point is to call my bank, and some types of SMS 2FA that don't support google authenticator or yubi keys yet.
Also for WhatsApp. You need to have a phone number to use WhatsApp. This is probably my most important use, as I use WhatsApp for all my voice/video calls these days. Number of voice calls I make and/or receive in a month can be counted on one hand.
It's really easy during early startup years to open two or more cloud accounts and then just keep paying the bills because it's cheaper to host the data than pay someone to dig through it and make sure it's ok to delete and won't bring your business crashing down in six months.
One startup I worked at, because of the city we were located in, got $10,000 account credits from digital ocean, linode and a bunch of others, which at $10/mo for data storage is basically forever. And the guy setting those up, especially in the early years, is likely to have not come up with password standards yet.
It's easy to work at an established company with mature IT practices, but starting one from scratch, especially in a high growth environment, and do it safely and securely, is fucking hard, man.
Agreed, several jobs ago, I had a coworker who lived a 2 hour drive east outside of Dallas Texas on a literal hayfarm two counties over. She had satellite internet connection down with dial-up modem up, and was able to RDP in and do upgrades of the custom software we had at the time, and make changes to our scheduling software, etc. She was not the most productive of our team members, but then again even in the office she wasn't terribly productive so I don't think the minimal lag really had much impact on her.
This is basically me. My time is valuable to me. Would rather pay the 5% premium and get it delivered. In urban areas where i have to pay to park, it's not worth going shopping. A trip to trader Joe's can easily take 2 hours between finding parking, getting checked out and then leaving the garage. For basic staples. If I have activities planned that day, i have to really carefully schedule my trips to the store so that it does not overlap with other activities. Does not help that minimum wage in my turn is nearly $15/hr and so business closes shortly after peak hours which means nothing is open after 8, rarely after 9. The last thing I want to do is wait in line for 3 hours after fighting rush hour to get to the store after a long day at work. Almost any price premium is worth avoiding that.
Object-oriented shell languages are pretty rad, very intuitive, has auto-complete/intellisense built in so that third party editors can take advantage of it, you don't need to know the syntax of sed/awk, and jq-type functionality works for free, supports package management etc. It's somewhere in-between perl and ruby as a shell.
Probably will be largely ignored by the linux community, but by having powershell support in linux, you can take your windows-land scripts and execute them on linux without having to learn 1980s style bash syntax.
You also get parallel instructions and multithreading, it's a proper language with classes and everything, it just happens to be focused on system operations and automating IT workflows.
My younger friend (he's 24) has been staying on my boat while he looks for a new place, has been venmoing me "rent" money for a couple of months. The public feature doesn't seem that useful, we put memo notes like "for helping trump collude better with russia". I didn't use the memo feature in paypal, still don't use it with venmo.
Probably why they make it public is because it's the only globally unique thing their payment app does, otherwise anybody can replace them.
Yeah I see a lot of stuff for sale on Amazon that's also on ebay. Especially for arduino-level stuff where you're buying a raw 12:1 12v electric motor, or whatever, ebay has always been great, but now those guys have an amazon seller account too, and the amazon model makes reviews a lot more accessible.
Comparatively on ebay it's a lot easier to accidentally buy an "PlayStation.4 - Box only" rather than the item you wanted to buy. And Amazon has their 2 day prime delivery network, which is hard to beat. Anything ordered on Ebay is going to come in a shitty plastic bag via USPS in 4-9 days typically.
Then it should be done based on longitude, not latitude? That seems like a problem for people living in the far north. The rest of the planet super doesn't care what happens above 50 degrees north. Forcing 85% of the world population to change clocks for no apparent reason, to appease the 15% that live where this matters seems like a non-starter for me. Hard pass.
There's something like 10 navigable harbors between Los Angeles and the Oregon border some 700 miles along the coast. They're all necessary for industry, fishing and pleasure craft. They're all roughly about 100 miles apart which is about a day's travel. Also lol, Moss Landing is flat as a pancake.None of this is a good idea, especially as a long term one. You'd be better off sticking wind turbines under the water at the golden gate bridge
Honestly I don't think there's much marketing data to be gleaned from how long you play certain titles. You already finished the economic transaction of buying the game, they just need to know which titles you buy, not the ones you actually play.
My point is that nobody in their right mind would ever ever ever use apple maps to stream data for autonomous driving for exactly the reasons you're stating. I don't know how you think that would ever work or how any halfway sane engineer would sign off on that as safe.
Other than OTA updates, self driving cars are completely autonomous. So probably not.
My boat did not sink when I took it from San Francisco to Monterey and we went out of cell phone reception. The nav software in the chartplotter just did it's thing. I think it was last updated in 2005.
Most developers I know have a single laptop as their primary workstation. We were complaining about the 16GB limit on macbook "pro" laptops in 2015 as the on-premise software appliance we were developing at the time used about 10GB memory, which quickly ballooned to 17GB by mid-2016.
The product we were using was also designed to scan other machines, which meant that you would likely have between.2 and 8 VMs running on your local machine to dev/test the entire product.
So yes this is absolutely supposed to replace your personal workstation. I do about half my work from home these days, the 2-3 days a week I am in the office I still probably do 4 hours of work at home. Splitting your work between two machines is a real bear. Here we are three years later and the best "professional" macbook offering still only offers 16GB memory, where Lenovo and Dell have been offering 32GB memory in laptops for two+ years now. Will I need 128 GB? No probably not tomorrow but 64GB would be a reasonable ask for someone in my line of work. There's something like half a million software developers in the Bay area, I'm sure more than 5% of them are running in to memory problems at least monthly.
Our "dev db" is 10 GB, down to 7GB if you take a chainsaw to it. And then each of my java containers/microservices uses 512mb so that's 16GB right there and we haven't even touched my OS or dev tools' memory requirements.
I do all my dev work in AWS and remote in because my "pro" macbook is limited to just 16GB memory. I can't even standup my dev stack on my laptop anymore.
Heaven forbid Chrome is running on a system in the same timezone as my laptop. I'm glad 640K is enough for you, but I regularly bump in to memory problems.
I have been using USB-C since the end of 2016 on my cell phone, USB-C on chromebook since mid 2017, and USB-C on Mac since late 2017, no issues whatsoever. The apple and google branded USB-C chargers work great charging all my devices. Mostly I just use the apple charger for everything since it will top off my phone in half an hour or so and then plug back in my laptop.
I've had zero durability issues thus far in something like 2 years. I also like that I can at a minimum trickle charge my laptop using my phone charger.
That seems pretty reasonable, if you wanted to start substack financial news, I would either assume that it is a different company. Nobody is going to confuse Columbia House with Columbia School Source as one is music, the other is school furniture. In this case they opened a new company that happens to have the handle of a guy who is well known in a specific community. What happens when a new airline company starts up that has the same name as the handle of an aviation webforum administrator "FlyBob"? How slippery slope do you want to get?
Nvidia released the Gegfoce 8800 GTX in 2006 and that was effectively the fastest card until around 2010.... they just milked the archtecture, re-re-released the architecture under different names. I had the 8500 which was released a year later as the 9500.
Then the 200/300/400 series, 5/6/7/8/900 series, finally they're at the 1040/50/60/70/80 series. Expect the cards to be warmed-over next spring wit hthe 1140/50/60/70/80... their product cycle is years long, this has been true for decades.
Volkswagen has spent billions developing a new electric-first platform and plan on rolling it out over the next couple of years. Every car maker plans on releasing at least one, if not three to five models by the date he stated. The cost of maintaining electric vehicles is already at parity with gas vehicles, and pretty much everyone agrees that the cost of batteries (big maintenance item, usually 50% of the value of the car at the 10 year mark) and cost of maintenance will continue to drop.
Gas and diesel definitely still have their place, the military, remote areas etc will still use it for a long time, but solar is so cheap that it's being rolled out in tropical islands across the world already. Every home in rural germany appears to already have five solar panels on it. Just because your neighborhood is a solar desert does not mean that the rest of the world is rapidly accelerating around you.
Yeah this was kind of my thought. They're collaborating with youtube, youtube brings the audience(s), they bring the content, both parties prosper.
This concept that youtube is a socialist country that must provide for it's slaves is a strange one. There's no moral or ethical obligation for youtube to provide mental health services. If they are producing too much content and getting burnt out, maybe roll back to a weekly or monthly format? Lots of sailing vlogs use the weekly format, but they're actually traveling to new places and have a ready source of new content.
Worst case scenario, they quit and go work at mcdonalds, play grand theft auto and smoke weed for a couple of months to go unwind. Running your own business/media company is not for everyone.
The lack of twitter-capable tools is the #1 reason why I don't use the service. At best the main twitter app is a sidecar to the facebook constellation of apps. The only reason I use twitter is to complain to companies about poor service. Since Twitter doesn't integrate with anything, I never login to check anything. Since I use the app perhaps once a month at best I bet they still count me as an "engaged user".

I don't see why we ever moved away from paper ballots? They are cheap, easily counted, and by definition create a reliable paper trail.
Every september libraries have what is called "Banned Books Week"
This is to highlight the problem with banning books and remind everyone that this is a terrible idea.
I think we've firmly established, over and over, that banning books does not work.

Moss landing is less of a bay and more of a dredged sandbar at the mouth of a river/tidal estuary, and a small one at that...
