No, as far as I know the screen time specific code is required to unlock any screen time restrictions.

I learned “right red dead” in aviation - if you see the red light right of the green light, it means the other plane is headed for you!

Unless I'm misunderstanding, the remaining third would be between the advent of agriculture and the industrial revolution.

Anecodtal of course but I have family that says warsh (Warshington DC) in southern Appalachia. I always assumed it was a hillbilly sort of thing. No connections to the midwest/"midlands" that I'm aware of.

Ah jeez. I have 9 tabs open on JetPens now. 30 minutes ago I was reading the linked article and now I'm comparing pocket planner dimensions and researching the practicality of retractable fountain pens. I've been thoroughly nerd-sniped.

Reading the comments first, I assumed you had made up your quoted text because it is SO over the top. And then I read the last line - yep, that's actually a quote from the article.

Could be both

I've looked at your other comments here but I can't find elaboration on the bad parts of AppImage. I tend to agree that AppImage is the best of the available options - do you mean that the best solution would be rich system libraries that never break backwards compatibility ala Windows? And since we don't have that, AppImage is the best we can do?

The ballooning storage issue was mentioned along with Flatpak, and is an issue as every single dependency is pulled in. AppImage excludes those dependencies which are "reasonably expected" to be on any Linux system. See the Application Sizes section here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/866511/what-are-the-differen...

Example: LibreOffice download size (source)

  - AppImage ~248 MByte  
  - Snap      463 MByte [July 2020 update]  
  - Flatpak   543 MByte

EDIT: formatting

While not statically linked necessarily, app images do attempt to bundle dependencies such that they “just work” as self-contained executables on most Linux distros - which is what the poster above seems to care about.

Where can I learn more about this supercomputer and design tooling?

My name for this phenomenon in meetings when you have people "battering" you into agreeing with things is Bullshit Chicken. Chicken being the maybe apocryphal "game" of driving head on in a car against your opponent, with the loser being the one who swerves first. Bullshit Chicken being the meeting where whoever spins enough bullshit without swerving wins the "debate". I suck at Bullshit Chicken because I'm still trying to wrap my head around the first bit of bullshit (just an example from elsewhere in the thread "There's an API for it, so it'll be easy") and the bullshitter is on to the fifth point already.

Related to Bullshit Chicken, the bullshit asymmetry principle[0] - that it takes 10x as much time and energy to refute bullshit as it does to create it.

Nashville has experienced really rapid growth too over the last 20 years, and I think it takes a while for naming conventions to catch up. Given by the fact that what people call suburbs appear to you (as I'm assuming, a relative newcomer) to be "inside the city".

My own hometown has experienced rapid growth over the same time span as Nashville, and has annexed large portions of what were commonly known as the suburbs. So there has been a literal change from what used to be suburbs to now be within city limits, in the course of a generation.

It would be great if the "1 in 6" number could be compared to previous years or economic conditions. "considering" is also a pretty broad term - it doesn't sound super surprising to me that 1 in 6 retirees would consider working again - if anything it sounds a bit low, compared to the folks I've known to retire over the last 30ish years.

I heard someone spell out /usr once, still haven’t fully recovered.

EDIT forgot about bin pronounced bine (rhymes with pine)

The interesting thing is, both of these store chains already had fully automated checkouts, they simply removed the ability for these to accept cash and make change.

Recently I’ve noticed multiple grocery store chains posting notices about how they no longer accept cash. A couple as of the new year.

Folks who do this sort of thing tend to only work half the year. So you make one of those trips, and spend the other half of the year at home w/ your family full time.

I understand your interpretation of a one word response as idle cynicism for its own sake. Truly though, the history of civilization is one of ever-consolidating power, roughly correlated with technological advance. There are of course local exceptions (both in the geographical and temporal sense) to the overall trend, but barring a massive technological setback, I really don't see how we won't eventually end up under the rule of a single government.

I also expect to get notified of incoming messages - it was not infrequent that I would restart Teams and get 3-5 notifications of messages all at once, timestamped over the previous several hours.

As best I could tell, my client would simply lose connection to the server entirely silently. Normally I would find out when trying to send a message to someone, and noticing the delivery animation/indicator was not appearing. Restart Teams and boom, here's a little pile of messages I'd missed.

Sounds like the litigation has been dropped, but the $1m in attorneys fees already paid was a loss too large to bear.

...yet

Well, in the posed scenario, when the free option for acquiring the work is no longer available, but the paid option is still available - the service is making the work available at all when it otherwise wouldn't be.

I’m really curious to know what piece of hardware you’re talking about, as you’ve apparently replied to the wrong post. But I really want the hardware you’re describing!

> The argument here, I think, is that in 10, 20, 30 years, the site used to host the original PD works will either go offline or otherwise be buried in search results, when Getty et al stay #1 in the search results and charge for the PD work

Sounds like Getty et al would be providing a valuable service in that case.

Why that one in particular?

As someone new to Arrow/columnar DB's, do you mind sharing what kind of data makes sense to use Arrow for, but isn't very compressible?

220, 221, 222… whatever it takes!

I believe bacon just describes the cut. In my area of the US, you can buy a package of uncured bacon right alongside the usual cured varieties. I don't know for sure, but I'd imagine the slaughterhouses described here wouldn't be doing any processing outside of the slaughtering, butchering, and packing.

This is why F1 specifies fuel capacities and flow rates in kilograms.
