Is it? Can you quote relevant legislation or case law?
Why?
The dog in question is not small. In fact, a pyr is one of the largest dog breeds.
>I am curious about others' track record doing this.
I nearly lost my job fighting bullshit and bureaucracy at my current gig and have been relegated to a small corner of the business where I am unable to call out the incessant nonsense coming from the vast army of project managers and other professional meeting attenders that have infected this place. At 54 I’m past my sell-by date from new projects and customers, so my only option is to take the daily humiliation so I can keep paying the rent.
You have not know humiliation if you have not experienced a line of slightly elderly shoppers mildly frowning and tutting as you hurl your items into a bag, whilst the cashier looks at you with overt disapproval. The only accepted bagging speed is “Superhuman” and the best day of my life was when the cashier at my regular Edeka nodded approvingly at the fact that I was practically ripping the groceries out of their hand as soon as the cash register beeped.
Supermarket staff here in Italy, where I now reside, think I am insane, and I work hard to contain my impatience with those lesser-trained people in front of me at the cash register.
I don’t think any, or many, people believe da Vinci had no flaws. He was, however, indisputably brilliant in many ways, and is the literal embodiment of the Renaissance Man / Polymath.
It takes a specific type of person to be confronted with a persons’ achievements and say “well, you know, they still had their flaws, and not all of their ideas worked.” Da Vinci was a known self-critic, nobody was harder on him than he was on himself: he lamented on his deathbed that he had offended god for not being better at his art.
I’m unsure what you are contributing to the discussion.
Pretty much the first thing the revolutionaries said was “well that was easy, let’s make sure that cannot happen again”
Saved you a click.
Can’t wait for that future!!
The protocols are not the issue, it’s the high-bandwidth, low-latency wireless network that’s missing. LEO satcom may be an option in the future, but it isn’t yet for flight and safety critical real time applications.
I just finished building a pilot information system for an airline that uses ACARS to communicate. It’s a backup system for a backup system that supports a redundant electronic flight bag tablet.
I appreciate this probably isn’t a popular HN opinion, but as you say, you need to make a living. If you have produced something novel that is working, put the gaspedal down and monetise the absolute living daylights out of it as long as you can. Because that is what everyone with _money_ is doing. You don’t see OpenAI opening all their research and tricks now, do you?
Do your thing, buddy, and make your money. All the best with your startup, and don’t get distracted by the people clamouring for your recipes.
Why are you trying to make that sound like it is some kind of problem?
At the end of the day, puppy mills exist because people buy from them.
Responsible breeders work hard with the respective breed groups to improve the health standards, and a lot of work is underway to introduce new bloodlines and standards to unhealthy breeds. That is not to say that all breeders are good breeders, or care much about dogs’ health, but there is a definitive push for change going on towards improving the standards.
There are a few breeds that have serious health problems, but the vast majority don’t.
I have an award winning show dog, and he’s strong, healthy, and happy. We are responsible in researching the right pairing for matings. We use pedigree research, DNA tests, and inbreeding coefficient calculators to ensure healthy offspring.
Responsible breeders exist, and in fact are a majority.
