It has had it from near the beginning, and has been trying to promote the feature more over the last few months. You now get notified when you get new followers, at least. It is still very rudimentary, I agree that this will be an area of f

Plenty of theaters in the US do this, they just need a liquor license, the availability and restrictions on which vary wildly across local jurisdictions.

The abdication to of power to the Executive has been going on longer than that. Personal IT device use has been too, things have only gotten worse since the Clinton email server debacle - which I did think was a big deal at the time, but in

The technologies are not just for large deployments IMO, it's the next logical step of leveraging OSS software: composition at the service layer instead of binary interfaces. You can pull down an ElasticSearch image, for instance, to p

The large period is a certainly a desirable property when you are going to be drawing a few billion numbers.

From the article there are actually a number of weak correlates: a man with smaller testes, for example. But it concludes with the prefrontal cortex being the largest discriminator, all other factors considered. It would seem that picking a

We are very much Nature. Possibly something independent of our own minds exist; we can never really know. Anything worth preserving, caring for, or caring about, is a product of the human mind. The meteor careening into the earth does not f

Our drive could have been for naught if someone was off that day or they were doing a study, no way to tell in advance. There's not much to give a tour of, just a large viewing room that was open to the public and so totally worth it,

Years ago my ex and I went to PR on vacation. Spent most of our time on Vieques, fantastic trip, but when we were still on the big island I dragged us all the way out to Arecibo. My wife was confused, there's nothing out there except s

I don’t think you are particularly unusual in your wants and needs, but there may be some other issues if you have been trying and failing to have any sort of romantic relationship for 17 years.

I have to disagree, the intro is not very concise, and includes needless details without giving a really clear picture of what the thing is. The parent comment gives a better summary!

Does it really require feeling guilty though? Sometimes I do. On the other hand I have put off family obligations and felt guilty about it afterward, but prioritized family when there were things I’d rather do and felt quite good about it

Healthy boundaries are important in any sort of relationship - romantic, friendship, professional. Sometimes it’s nice to prioritize a family member’s needs over work, other times it’s inappropriate. Just the very act of having to make that

Have we not been living through the same pandemic? Nobody in the US has a reliable internet connection, services are controlled by third parties and randomly black out, infrastructure is overloaded, meetings are insecure, people step away f

I do not doubt that these things happen, and it sounds like you have some interesting anecdotes. I do take exception to the assertions that this always happens, you will be an outcast, that’s the reason, etc. Ties of language and cultur

If anything I think the global pandemic has shown how unprepared we are to come together globally and utilize technology to solve hard problems. Maybe something good will come from all of this in that direction and we will learn from our mi

They are broad, but it’s been years since I looked and I am confident I am not always in compliance. But at the end of the day they take it away, and there is not room in the trash for everything. I am obviously not acting in very good fait

Living in a city, we get two bins: trash and commingled recycling. They get picked up once a week. Anything that is not obviously “garbage” goes into recycling. I believe that most but not all of it can be recycled. I have no idea what they

They aren’t? So someone can craft a payload that contains a rootkit or similar and has the same name and hash as the thing you wanted, and this is okay? (Disclaimer: I don’t know all that much about how hashes are used internal to the proto

You can collapse conversations by clicking the small blank space to the right of a user’s name at the top of the comment. Bad UI but it’s there.

Perhaps a controversial opinion: there are no bad programming languages, just bad practices. Learn both C++ and Rust. If you use them enough you will come to see the pain points with time, for yourself, and they will not be problems so much

I was in a role to take customer calls for years, and did straight up support for a while early in my career. I found that if I took a genuine interest in their problems, and an interest in the individual, it turned a lot of bad attitudes a

1% of 300 million is 3 million, I think that’s the fear on a large scale. So dissemination of information is important, but the 24/7 news cycle not so much. It started its current cadence well before the pandemic, somewhere around mid-

I used to work remotely and really disliked it. Not talking to coworkers and being stuck at home all day were the two big reasons. I'm right back there now due to the pandemic, and it's much the same, the evenings and weekends are
