Hate speech is derogatory or harmful speech targeted at a marginalized community. Hating a company or product is not the same thing.

Tailscale is that.

For a homelab k8s is way overkill. I do it because self-hosting is 1 part utility to 2 parts education.

This is outside the bounds of the point OP was making, but FWIW an image is ultimately just a grid made up of pixels. You need only to loop your pixel classifier over the 2d array and tabulate.

Huh? If I search ‘Meta Language’ I get the exact information I need. If I search ‘ML’ I get less than nothing.

I don’t think a perpetuity is correct in this case. Software depreciates rapidly without updates and the norm was to charge the one-time price for each major version, which was always somewhat analogous to a subscription assuming you wanted

You divulge your name yes but the upside is not having it correlated with a place. The name is written on the mailbox outside but is not mapped to a unit number on the envelope/parcel nor on the building. The only way anyone can map yo

Safari has this now too. It’s actually a pretty good browser these days.

Hah, I remember one Sober October I was out and drank like 4 pints of craft ginger ale. Woke up feeling worse than I would have with beer.

Nice. I'm also in B.C. now (Vancouver) but spent most of my career so far in Calgary. I realize the source of confusion here — I said NOI is based on NERs in my first comment when I should have said market value. NOI would indeed typic

Like I say, if you’re a lender that only gives a shit about stabilized NOI, that’s A-Ok. But if I’m signing an appraisal that asserts a Market Value with no extra assumptions or conditions, that market value will account for your free rent

There are regional differences in methodology but here in Canada, with institutional clients, we model rent abatements, TIs, and LCs. So no, it is not inaccurate. If you’re a lender that only cares about NOI and not a pension fund establish

by jamwil 2y ago
Any appraisal would base NOI on Net Effective Rent not Face Rates, so asset book values would not really be affected by shifting more shortfall into rent abatements or tenant improvement allowances.

It’s plausible but there is no evidence to support it so it remains a theory. A theory concerning a conspiracy. A conspiracy theory.

Forgive my ignorance, but to your last point about Rust aborting an invalid state… Isn’t Rust considered more memory safe because it catches many mistakes at compile time and not runtime?

But even with a mask mandate, a large conference is probably not an acceptable risk for someone in that position. Masks help, but they aren’t a complete solution, especially when folks remove them to eat and take photos.

We already know that is the case and we continue to fly in them because we have no choice but to. Also humans have startlingly short term memories.

In response to the original comment where they said switching to Libre would introduce compatibility problems because the industry standard is Microsoft, I think its an incompatible comparison to talk about minor inconsistencies across the

Correct the web version is not a 1:1 swap but the desktop version has been a stable product used by millions for decades. Most users use the desktop version and indeed it has few compatibility issues with itself.

More an implementation detail than a conceptual distinction, though.

I don’t think they would be limited to rentals given the leasehold titles he mentions as a likely framework. The same is true of national lands or parks — you can buy a property in the Banff townsite, or on Port Authority lands, for instanc

Enjoy your android phone then I guess? Because Google definitely doesn’t treat its users like a product. Oh wait, that’s their entire business model.

Average owner with no idea is the exact person who benefits most from a locked down OS. The rest of us are free to choose something else.

To offer a modest counterweight here, every iPhone owner bought the product knowing damn well that Apple keeps the OS locked down. If you don’t want that, don’t buy an iPhone. There’s no confusion about what the product is and what you can

Non-technical people do seem to show a strong preference for their phones and iPads, yes.
