That would be the Colorado river. I did a trip like that two summers ago (on rafts rather than kayaks), and there's (essentially) no communication with the outside world. I did think about how I would react if there were some major world event, but I can only imagine what it feels like for them.
Footnote 4 [0] discusses the struggles of formatting comments. This was interesting to me because back in December I wrote most of a code formatter for Lox, the toy language from Crafting Interpreters [1], but I never finished it because I got caught up on how exactly to handle and represent comments, and then I got distracted by other projects. Does anyone else have thoughts on how to handle comments in a code formatter?
Edit: Well, apparently this blog post (from 2015) is by the author of Crafting Interpreters. That makes this more interesting to me.
I haven't mapped my caps lock to anything else, but on my Mac I ⌘-tab, which is pretty natural for my thumb and fourth finger given the position of the ⌘ key next to the space bar.
> Technically it is not fb, but agency who employs them.
And that's part of the problem, IMO. It enables Facebook to say "we're giving these protections to all our employees" which is technically correct but leaves out many people who labor for Facebook.
It's not clear from your comment whether or not you're familiar with the book Weapons of Math Destruction by Cathy O'Neil, but you echo many of its main arguments about these types of systems. I can recommend the book if you haven't read it.
It's horrible! I always hated this kind of stuff in middle and high school. I think that it's a combination of school administrators being out of touch and having pressures from their higher-ups. But for the sake of today's teenagers, I wish these sorts of trainings and assemblies were done away with.
Wow, that's… gross. The university is treating its employees like young teenagers. There are always better things for schools to spend money on, such as faculty and staff salary. One wonders why they instead buy silly services like this.
I used to use time.is, but recently it's gotten more and more ads. Now, this new version of time.gov has the feature that compares device time to correct time, so I think I'm going to switch over.
For me (and at least one other commenter in this thread), the issue occurs when plugged into an external monitor. The linked thread seems to indicate the same. Any thoughts on that? I'll check the relevant setting.
That's interesting. I was watching a movie on my 1440p@60hz monitor last night on my 16" MBP in clamshell mode and the fans were on the whole time. That sounds like a connection.
I think you may be saying this sarcastically, but in response to the comment you replied to, at least my browser (Firefox) does do this. On this page, "ycombinator.com" is highlighted in white.
It sounds like it's good at excluding a number of participants: those with physical disabilities, parents of young children, minimum wage workers who can't get time off, on-duty medical and emergency personnel, etc.
I use both telegram and signal and I find that the general user experience (syncing chats across devices, bots, rich media types) is better in telegram, at the expense of privacy.
They display both because Google is selling ad space on searches like these, where people search the name of a site. If that site doesn't buy the ad, their competitor will. So sites are being forced to buy ads on their own trademark.
GitHub has a donation feature, which is up to the maintainer to enable for their project. Otherwise, it seems to me that a stream of positive comments would get old quickly.
Even on Southwest, which gives you two free checked bags, I see a lot of other passengers flying with small carry-on suitcases. I suppose they're worried about speed or loss/damage of their luggage, but I don't really know.
