Redoubts

Even though the future seems far away, it is actually beginning right now.

Well, "continued to work closely with the Space Force’s 18th Space Control Squadron" was a bit on the nose.

Unless you’re gonna address how states were drafted and the politics behind that, this post is at best a credulous defense of federalism.

Maybe they can afford it, but why should they?

Sounds like their problem.

Sure, but Western Europe has the same interests and can do the legwork itself.

> those numbers show a very inconvenient truth

Could you be plain about the point you’re making here?

Isn't that intentional? Picking sprawling glyphs for common items, and simple ones for rare meanings would be "inefficient" in some interesting sense. Indeed 'i' is the most common letter in Latin.

> Do you really?

Yes. Your desires and preferences aren’t objectively correct, in case you’re shocked here.

> We reviewed many KN95 masks sold on Amazon but found only one currently on the FDA's list of authorized respirators that we recommend, and we found two that should be avoided. We also found an FDA-authorized KN95 through an online direct distributor in the U.S. Sign in to get the details

Care to share?

The problem is that, yeah companies are reluctant to give more than a 10% raise because that’s considered a “good” raise. To do better, you now need to convince both your management chain and HR.

To do the latter, you need objective & independent proof of value, like an outside offer.

Sorry, I don't understand the implication here.

I mean, “fascist” is either a political slur or literally just 2 governments.

Things in and around the infrared sensors, since warm objects would blind the sensors with black-body radiation

The NY Times used to do a breakdown, and found yes they are: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/01/14/us/covid-19-d...

Dunno, but I wanna meet one white person in SF who has ever though about this.

Depends if you feel the thermal constraints are inherent to the form factor, or simply sloppy engineering.

It does have c interop so you could just use libarchive. Though writing c in swift is a bit less magical.

> shows Dart is more popular than Swift.

that... seems obviously wrong.

> Additionally, you need to be in New York if you want to "play in the big leagues" in the world of finance, fashion, art, etc.

I'm still a little worried about these (less finance); I keep hearing about people moving back home and not looking back because broker fees + rents shot up to where they used to be. Currently only 60% of jobs lost in NYC came back, vs ~90% nationally.

They could at least do it so they could hammer the news with soundbites for the next election: Police took N reports about crime, showing that set stats are undercounting by M; Police arrested X for QoL crimes, but released all but Y because the DA doesn't care about you, etc...

On the flip side, it would be nice if you would stop lynching negroes.

Even though it was obviously beta, there was a lot of early churn in the language and libraries. Some substantive, some trivial. And even in later versions, they like doing October surprises with language features, despite being open in development (SwiftUI and all it’s crazy dsl support came outta nowhere)

But the Linux story was garbage through v5, with half the standard library being unimplemented, and you getting to find out only at runtime.

Also, swift on Linux was (is) still just “here’s a tarball, dump it somewhere” or build from source.

That and the fact that static binaries aren’t a thing without a lot of work, if at all, means you have to ship a 2gb runtime to do anything — which sucks for casual tools.

I love the language but it feels like a bad time anywhere but on Darwin

Many credit unions will do this too. (They don’t charge foreign atm fee, and reimburse for the atm’s fee)

Can we have just one Hong Kong then? You have 99% of America catering to your needs, why make it 100%?

They could have sent you a consulting fee at least :-/

Yeah they usually have to wait for Metro North CT trains to move on from commuter stations.
