Dirty power kills my raspis faster then write cycles. I've been really surprised with the stability once I moved by Pis to my UPS

I forget the shape of the API but the pebble requests resources over Bluetooth and the mobile app actually makes the requests so it should be able to rewrite anything before/after a request easily.

I'm almost positive that it's both and also a short-sighted "give the customer what they ask for" approach. You could easily achieve local auto save, or a clear "upload to the cloud" UX, or whatever else. But the user got confused about saving documents, sooooo cloud.

Then the data centralization is a nice plus that makes it impossible to go back on.

Your dog still needs to be under control though. The ADA is somewhat vague on what that means but it is a behavior standard and if someone's dog is misbehaving you can kick out the dog (the human needs to be allowed to return without the animal).

I think it's a side effect of one bad experience being able to cause long term problems like reactivity that takes a long time to work through.

If you're a business ask the two legally permited questions (from the ADA):

- Is the dog a service animal required because of a disability?

- What work or task has the dog been trained to perform?

Most of the time the second question will throw off the fake owners.

Under the ADA, the kind of dog youre describing would be a service dog, same as any other. "Therapy dog" isn't a term that the ADA uses.

You can totally have a legitimate service dog for invisible disabilities.

Licenses don't mean anything in the US btw. The law does not require it and having a "license" is meaningless. Sometimes a training organization might vouch for the dogs skills, but that isn't a license and doesn't legally mean anything.

In the US it's the Fair Housing Act. Basically if the dog is providing necessary emotional support then the landlord can't prevent them from being with you in your home (I think there might be a carve out for nuisance dogs, but the dog doesn't need to be specifically trained for anything in particular to qualify).

It's a really low bar for a dog to qualify as an Emotional Support Animal. Which is great for people who need it, but is SO easy to abuse.

It only gives permission for someone to live with their dog though. It doesn't give someone any rights to bring their dog to restaurants and stuff though, even though people try. That's reserved for Service Animals.

We need to get much safer dog parks. Too many of them are just huge areas of off leash dogs and it's terrible for the dogs involved. It breeds bad play behaviors, dog-dog reactivity, spreads disease between dogs, and encouraged bad owners who just let their dog run free unsupervised.

Dogs that spend a lot of time in dog parks are way more likely to behave badly when they see other dogs when they are out for a walk.

Don't forget how horribly the first English adaptation of the film went too.

The number of levels isnt the issue, it's the size and scope of control of the market.

The rest is on journalists to be sure to mention "Microsoft owned Bethesda" more often.

If we had infinite time and resources and pecpuld pause disease for the duration of the trial, then I'd agree with you.

Without that we delay treatment, increase costs, and slow research. And people die while we wait.

Test what's most likely to be a problem, and avoid wasting resources proving what we already know.

I can't find my Amazon Prime rewards card in your search, any chance it's in there under a different name?

And for my Discover It card a tool like this is t very useful unless it can handle the rotating reward category (I think one of the Chase freedom cards also has a similar program).

I can easily remember most of my static rewards categories, but managing the rotating categories is harder and is where a tool like this would help me best.

They're locked in my an internal screw. So they'll at least last a few days.

Personally it feels weirder to have my address public today because it's too freely available across the world. Sure, someone back in the days of the yellow pages would still be able to get to me, but it would probably involve a bit more work of tracking what city I'm in then getting their hands on the book.

Now with it being digital it's too easy to casually find and abuse. The barrier to access is a lot lower.

Seems unlikely with how many different ways ui elements are handles across an OS (including apps that do their own rendering). Though I bet you could block some subset of well known ones and block a lot of the network traffic that feeds ads.

My favorite is "I'll log out the state of this object, it's all okay for privacy because I've checked every field and gotten the privacy reviews to prove it" then a few months later someone adds a new field to the object not realizing it's logged by a lower layer to a table no one remembers exists....

Then a month later someone queries that table and....oh shit.

The fact that hearing impaired people prefer ASL interpreters to closed captioning tells me automated translation will never be enough.

It's the same reason we prefer interpreters to Google Translate when the message is important.

Interpretation adds the nuance of a human that all the automatic tools miss.

I'm sure it could make a small dent in the market for interpreters but only a small one.

I've never understood that outrage with one exception. Especially when you're remote it's painful to get immediately cut off from communication apps and not having a chance to say goodbye to people. When someone leaves willingly they get a chance to send one last email with a personal contact method for people to keep in touch. If you're let go you don't get that chance.

I wish there was a way to remove access to everything except that, but sadly I can't think of anything foolproof.

For typefaces you check for the distribution of similarities in each group. If it has large clusters then group by 3, 3', etc then run your outlier check on each of those groups

Still would risk some weirdness, but would help a bit I'd hope.

I wonder if it would be worth running some kind of language analysis or spelling/Grammer check to verify the scan too. At least for text, you'd need another solution for number tables.

Yeah but you could theoretically turn off Location services and then the cell network may not be able to tell if you're at the doctors or at the McDonalds next door so it still offers some (limited) privacy.

Glider on Android handles this correctly

The failure here is on the manager/ops team for not seeing the critical project running on the hack instance and providing resources to stabilize it.

Hack instances are amazing for getting stuff off the ground or validating a use case when the proper channels are too burdensome to use, but they need to be migrated away from once something is critical.

My university has machines named "data" and "lore", I personally use scifi transportation on my machines (enterprise, firefly, stargate, galactica).

You forgot that because of backcompat this solution will now become the unchangeable standard for years and anything more integrated will be in addition, not a replacement.

I've always liked the theory of this but not the implementation. I'm a big fan of squash merges so my branches are a mess of commi that each may not even build let alone pass tests. If I had to run tests each commit it would slow things down significantly for little benefit.

I wish it was more nuanced

I'm more curious if people are able to find another equivalent job if they leave. 10% turnover is a lot less impressive if you're the only game in town.

Can we trust the turnover rate or is something else keeping it down?

Probably true but how do you handle autodetonation of email links in that case? Too many emails servers will click links automatically to check for issues.

That was my understanding at least.

For a home network I think I agree with you, but in a corporate or SOHO environment there may be an open WiFi that requires at least some access to the server locked in the closet. You can't necessarily trust that people who have access to to the network should have full access to the server.

Add thats before accounting for "defense in depth" approaches.

I think it was apple that forced the use of HTTPS in app APIs, not Google.

I don't believe android apps are locked to HTTPS as a rule, though obviously a lot of them likely don't have fallbacks.
