The answer is "then a viable fork will sprout up and we can switch to that instead" which is what has happened for every notable widely used OSS project I can think of. And it's not like you have to sit idly while that's

The linked study doesn't seem to support that "ears never stop growing" at least in the typical way one would read that sentence. > This study supports the view that as people age, their ears get larger, particularly the e

That's exactly what I imagine would need to happen, I'm just surprised that the specs are claiming all of that with a single 1600W PSU. It's the kind of thing that doesn't inspire a lot of confidence that someone has tho

This covers really well why I think the BSL license is a non-starter for things like TF. I get trying to prevent AWS from competing with you using your own open source code, but it creates this ambiguity where it's not clear whether lo

$15k for a box with 144 GB GPU RAM is not bad, but I'm not clear on how they're going to run that from a single 1600W PSU. That would be 6x 24GB GPUs, and I'm pretty sure you'd need 2x 1600W PSUs and two separate 15amp c

Not at the moment it isn't. It's looking quite precarious right now due to the deflation threat.

That seems to be how it works in Vegas, 3% cap on owner occupied houses and 8% cap for non-owner occupied houses. Maybe that's not steep enough to discourage companies gobbling up houses though and the rates would need to be higher.

I don't think that's true for anything with a permissive license, only contributions to copyleft licenses. If I contribute code to something under the GPL then my contribution can only ever be distributed under something that is c

How would you implement "get priority"? I think there's already some prioritization in terms of being easier to get loans for a primary residence, and better tax treatment, etc. But I'm not sure how you'd prevent an

I think it's good from transparency point of view. It's one thing when a retailer has one or two house brands, like Kirkland brand at Costco. Then the consumer can know that's the retailers house brand. Amazon on the other ha

Try working from co-working space if you have something like that nearby, or working from a coffee shop, etc. Or look for any meetups for other remote workers in your area and if there isn't one, considering starting one, chances are t

Without any toolboxes though, and you'd typically need a handful of those depending on what field you're working in and that's another $45 per toolbox. But also anyone just getting started may not know which toolboxes they ne

The company entered into questionable acquisitions though largely to try to become more competitive in the LTL market with their non-unionized competitors. Now they executed the mergers poorly and failed to integrate for too long, but even

The first one doesn't seem unique to the US. I just spent the last 2 months i Europe and on many side streets there is no place to safely stop a car which means pulling into the sidewalk is the only option. So I frequently had to step

Flossing or brushing only causes bleeding for me when my gums aren't healthy. For example after getting a proper cleaning my gums won't bleed for weeks or months. If they start bleeding again it's a sign I've not been do

Over 2-3 years, which isn't insignificant, and does suggest cleanings can be done less frequently, but it isn't particularly long term. I'm curious if that still holds over say 5 years. And how does it intersect with other pr

Of the places you listed NYC is arguably the only one where people truly don't need cars because the public transit is just so good. I lived in Chicago for 9 years, pretty much everyone I knew had a car. Certainly true for anyone with

Despite the title I was expecting a book about independent technical contractors with "hit man" used as an euphemism, but no it's an actual manual for contract killers. It's interesting that the book started out as ficti

I think that might be specific to your carrier, forcing these network to be automatically joined despite your preference. I'm not seeing the same behavior with Verizon, where I get the managed networks but auto-join happily stays off.

It must make a difference otherwise they'd provide the breakdown when asked. I suspect most consumers don't know how much the appliance should cost, it is a complex piece of machinery. But the labor part is easier to reason about.

by cstejerean 4y ago
They also tend to only install units that you can't buy directly and only quote for total cost not parts and labor so you cannot easily tell just how much they are charging for the labor.

Things might have changed since then, but from what I recall while we had some options on what to pick, for example I could eliminate red meat entirely, there was no option to get meat and not get salmon. So pretty much every week at least

Sounds pretty realistic then. I remember reading somewhere that NYC is around ~60% public transportation, and Hong Kong is around 70-80% public transportation. So maxing out around 80-90% in the game doesn't sound too outrageous. Unles

I used Blue Apron for a while and got an unreasonable amount of salmon for some reason. It's been almost 6 years and I can still barely eat salmon after that. So I can definitely understand where the prisoners were coming from on this
