No I can fathom it, that's why I said:

> But yeah, if that's the case for you, go ahead and factor that in.

I did update my GP though to clarify.

Yes that's my point. I was replying to:

> To stop tipping would be the first step.

If I had the power to fix blog content I'd do a lot more than that.

Yeah all of those waiters could just fallback on their massive savings and wait out the period between not being tipped and the laws changing.

Meanwhile I'm the dick that didn't pay these people for serving me, in the name of some crusade an article told me to do.

Not in the place where I live, so not applicable.

Generally the kitchen staff is not on server wages in America and do not received a part of the tip.

But yeah, if that's the case for you, go ahead and factor that in.

You see my point though right?

The cooks aren't being paid server wages, so you don't have to tip them.

And no, servers do a lot lot more. Have you actually worked any of these jobs? I did both.

There's a reason it's so damn cold in a lot of restaurants, serving is really hard work.

Kitchen work is kinda fun, serving is not, but you can make good money if you're good, due to tips.

I never base the tip on food quality, unless it was cold or something.

The server has no control over that, not really fair.

(based on American practices, seems like UK is different in how tips are distributed)

No, thanks. Server wages would have to be adjusted first, unless you want to screw those servers.

Please hold while I tip my waiter extra for serving me and my family on Christmas.

I'm sure there's some other cultural practice that you can crusade against, maybe in your own country?

(I do not tip in other countries like Japan as I respect their customs and wages are factored for no tip)

I'm curious as to why you're interpreting the "entirely" as stopping transmission.

I meant, is it entirely the cause of the massive drop (to near nil) that year?

You didn't answer the main point of my post with any information.

You just deflected on the first word, which you interpreted wrong in the first place.

Still haven't seen a source on this claim, noone has in this thread.

So link please?

Entirely? Could you point to some sources on this?

I have heard this theory, would like to know more information.

all those homeless is incredibly generalizing, there's many reasons to be homeless. but the top ones are drugs and mental illness.

many are drug addicted, they would have somewhere to go but they opted out of society (well, they aren't in the forest so not full opt-out)

but yes a combination of state run rehab / mental hospitals seems to be the only solution, but is it done by force?

if it's not forced you'll have a hell of a time getting people to go. if it is, you are now rounding up potentially unwilling people and shipping them to a facility.

Cool, fwiw I didn't know about the general use and I use deno heavily, here's a comparison of Three.js:

Deno Doc: https://doc.deno.land/https://esm.sh/v135/@types/three@0.159...

TSDocs.dev: https://tsdocs.dev/docs/three/0.159.0/modules.html

The search UX and documentation UI of TSDocs is better. The availability of Deno is better atm.

Though TSDocs was speedier and a better flow when it was working.

And in reality, Adobe actually lost progress on XD and Figma has come out with an incredible amount of features this year.

Now Figma has an extra billion for development and Adobe has to start back up the thing they couldn't catch Figma with in the first place.

It was pretty much a win/win for Figma regardless of outcome. Though this outcome is a win for Figma and it's users.

Right?

For all Android users this would mean there's now an official client.

For Beeper devs this means there's less RE needed for their client.

Even if Apple released an official app, Beeper is still useful for aggregating other services, something Apple will never do.

I see noone but Beeper winning in this game barring legal skirmishes.

We'll have to agree to disagree there.

A webview-based framework has way too many limitations even to this day for us.

React Native has been able to provide a native-like experience for us with no issues.

What if you can't afford to hire a "top notch" iOS and Android dev? (or any extra devs for that matter)

You don't think there's a lot of companies in that boat?

I was able to make a react-native app, targeting web first. Took a little under a year.

Took 1 month to get it working and deployed on both app stores to replace the apps our iOS and Android team used to work on natively.

I now maintain web, iOS, and Android, solely, with one codebase, 95% code shared.

We used to have at least two devs on each native platform. That saves about $600k/yr.

(browser-based cross-platform toolkits are a joke, they are not flexible, and are hard to extend)

Claveman[1] and Tankmen[2] were my favorites.

Hopefully some of you get to enjoy them for the first time.

Thank you for detailing exactly what happened.

The intimidation of the stacked charges led to Swartz's suicide.

The gov. was 100% responsible for his death, which is why I say they killed him, indirectly, but they still caused the anguish that made him feel like suicide was the only way out.

Sadly this strategy is used all too often on citizens, plea deal offered to say "look they pleaded guilty, we were right", otherwise you get the stick, life in jail.

They usually don't use the wire fraud trick on academics ever since they killed Aaron Swartz.

Interesting theory, but what do you call the emails and slack channels where government employees requested (and usually received) banishment or limiting of targeted users?

Are you under the thinking that no coordination happened, or that the coordination that did happen is legal and expected?

Trying to understand how you didn't get to the same conclusions.

Just picking a random snippet from the Files, here's part six:

https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1603857534737072128.html

How is that not government collusion with a private company to censor US citizens?

Well there ya go, they said they weren't aware of anything. Case closed.

Anyone can go read the reports and judge for themselves what happened.

I don't see how anyone could go through it and think there was no collusion.

(not that I agree with this whataboutism used to distract from the initial criticisms of the CCP oppression)

I said in my original post I will be the owner of a CyberTruck soon. It will be useful to me, to replace my car.

But since they only work well for in town and on highways, they don't work well to replace my truck for ranch and recreational off-roading use.

These categories are based on my own needs, but they aren't that unique.

I'm defining what it means to me.

Not really, as I outline what I need in a truck.

I don't mind if things are done other ways, as long as they are practical.

No purity test needed, just practicality.

Currently EV trucks are impractical outside of using them in town / on highways and they are not practical to haul range-wise.

If you don't need that stuff, what's the point over getting a car?

Okay. So want to talk about my points I outlined or continue with your definition tirade?

If it's the latter, you'll have to do so amongst yourself.

They spawned one out of one sentence while ignoring the sentiment of the rest of my post.

Sure I should have said "I don't consider it a truck". But that's very clear from my followup "nor do I consider the lightning a truck" that it's my personal opinion about the functionality that is missing, which I go into detail of what's missing in the same post.

It's being very pedantic.

thank you, that's pretty much my reasoning.

I one day hope that EV trucks will be useful to me to replace my ICE truck, but for me none of them hit the boxes.

some of them are logistical in relation to charging vs having an extra can of gas though, so it's hard to say.

careful, you'll have a lot of people reply saying you are trying to change the definition for having an opinion.

do you have a safety test reference where cybertruck falls short or is this speculation?
