You can measure centuries in weeks; I doubt that's the rhetorical intent here but it is weasel-y.

They're already changing though, at least in deep blue SF with the new slate of party leaders.

Every Amtrak (and even Metro North) I took over the holidays was packed to the rafters. People demand trains!

The AppleTV hardware is generally around as powerful as the previous generation phone, so it's possible to play some games. Streaming definitely works though!

The PS5 controller connects via bluetooth, Apple sells them at stores. I think the Xbox controller is the same.
I have a Mac mini as a home theater computer and play Cuphead on it with Steam, and it works pretty well.

Not top 3 per se but Waymo and then every other robotaxi option (of which, there really are none).

The goal afaik is to get people to quit for ideological reasons; they want to replace non-partisan government workers with partisan workers with better ideological alignment with P2025.

Exactly; they have an InDesign plugin that uploads a template to them for printing, and they have presets for various sizes and papers for books which are generally pretty good quality versus other services like that I've tried.

Instax printers are super cool!
Another option is using something like Blurb to make a full on book which is more effort but fun as well.

What's interesting about releasing a paper and open sourcing a bunch of the methods is I'd expect US companies to adopt the methods Deepseek is using to cut down on training costs and lack of available content, so it wouldn't really help.

FWIW people used to (and still do) use that very issue to obfuscate handles for games, e.g. "IlIlIIIIlIIl".

Put another way, the utility of edits outweighs the imagined risks of content rug-pulls after farmed engagement.
If the edited content is bad, it would get reported like any other post.

Someone should do a video series on how to make food for yourself and portion leftovers; I have serious concerns people don't realize you can eat a cooked meal more than once.

Not to pile on here but that someone domain squat a plausible domain for OP and is trying extort him with it suggests you all have some work to do with how to identify users. Just relying on DNS as an external identification isn't going to cut it; you need to create a consensus on who someone is.

Once my dad was terminal the last 6 months were hell and he just suffered and wasn't himself by then anyway; it needs to be an option.

Not about Say Nothing but PRK's "Wind of Change" podcast was also great.

Honestly, it was one of my favorite games and I can't believe how much time I've put into it, except it's like if your favorite movie was 1000 hours long.

Bookmarks please! Ideally with customizable labels. It's ok if they're protocol public!

In practice, this means that we cannot pass values to the RegisterTask function, we have to pass pointers.
Pretty cool!
comment in response to
post
TaskPointer requires a type implement Task itself, that is on value receivers, and that the passed version is a pointer by embedding the Task type as a pointer in the interface.
This is the critical bit!
comment in response to

Then let's imagine there is a function that registers tasks globally, returning a handle that lets you call the task from other tasks.
It builds up a constraint for a Task type, but then has an extra type (TaskPointer), and then returns a TaskReference of TaskPointer. What does TaskPointer do?
comment in response to
post
Let's imagine you have an interface that tasks need to implement, which takes a arguments and returns a value or an error.

Every time we ride in one we wonder how long it'll be until you can buy one, I would gladly pay 2x the markup on an I-Pace plus a monthly fee to have one of these drive me around.

The progress on electrification / heat pumps / carbon reductions generally is super encouraging!

It can vary a lot depending on the quality of the scanner, but could be medium format which will have finer grain than you can get on 135.
Could also be "digital" Portra 400.

Years ago I went and there was an installation where in the chapel speakers were set up (probably 25+?) where each speaker was the member of a choir and you could stand in the middle and listen to them sing. Was incredibly wild and worth the trip! But otherwise, yeah it's super far.
