I've used an old roku express, a roku TV and a new 4k roku (forget what the model was but it was made in 2020) and they all have the same app problems Disney plus crashes more often than not in any given watching…
Thats why you go suburban. Low COL but high quality of services and infrastructure. It's amazing what you can accomplish if you don't care about the solvency of your community :D
If you follow that link which says "Read the Story Here" they have this json example which has a list of employees and then info about the pagination of that list. The caption is this >If you look closely, this JSON…
What's your issue with toll cameras? The law is pretty clear in the US that you have no right to privacy in public, and public roads are no exception. You can fight the fine if it wasn't you in the car and if the…
Maybe we should stop worrying about it and just fine the car owner. If implied consent laws are legal surely agreeing to be responsible for your own vehicle on public roads would also be permissible under the…
You could pretty easily change that though. Having a cop drive around in a patrol car seems way less effective that if the same resources were used to pay someone to look at traffic cams and send out fines for dangerous…
Couldn't you be accused by a prosecutor based on video evidence? I get that having some private company collect fines directly would be bad, but couldn't they solve that with a simple manual review process by law…
This is obviously a silly case but I think traffic cameras are one of the few places surveillance could actually be called for. I'm not sure what the perfect system looks like, but the current system in the US seems…
And then you get far less traffic than you would if your product was listed on Amazon. In the traditional brick and mortar situation you can open your own shop next to the Walmart or Target or whatever and have roughly…
What's different is that Amazon is also an extremely dominant platform for other stores. It'd be like if Walmart came to your small town and signed a deal with the local government that stores had to carry their brands…
Might be too broad. Especially as the scale gets smaller I think that non-quantitative aspects can reasonably affect who you want to do business with. For example, if I'm annoying and rude to my local mechanic and he…
Maybe we just disagree about what constitutes best practices. I can't speak much about Java land, but I wouldn't describe rebasing in general as a best practice without further context. If you're working on a team that…
Doesn't that kind of imply that everyone's opinions are equally valid? If 95% of your profession is on the same page with a certain practice then I'd argue it's really not reasonable to go against the grain without a…
It'd be cool if this would decrease the number of antivaxxers, but actually it probably won't and Google really shouldn't be able to do this anyway. Perhaps if YouTube didn't have almost total market dominance it would…
That isn't historical data This is https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/changes-visitors-covid?ti... Shows the trend becomes clear on March 12th, which is 7 days before the first lockdowns in New York. Are you suggesting…
>Absolutely not, because you could measure a substantial decrease in mobility before any region instituted a lockdown. Source?
I mean yes not all areas have affordable food, but to claim, for example, that NYC has worse food than any average suburb is just absurd.
Isn't that decreased mobility largely impossible without lockdowns though? I can't imagine more than 20% of workers would realistically have been able to stay home if their employers didn't have to lock down.
What large cities don't have quality food available? I grew up in the deep suburbs and currently live in one of the largest cities in the US. The difference in variety when it comes to both supermarkets and reasturants…
Reminds me of the issue I remember with old Dell gaming laptops where the cups just had an insane amount of thermal paste on them so they always ran way hotter than they should. You really can't trust the manufacturer…
I did mean parallelism, but I think the point stands. There's very little practical use of async await outside of multithreading.
In a vacuous sense, but in practice you almost always use asynchronous code to achieve concurrency. The canonical Microsoft tutorial on async spends about half its time talking about hiw to make your code concurrent to…
Sure, but I'd argue that the best way to handle this is to just stick to the already existing paradigms that developers have experience with. It's not like there are any problems which can't be solved without async or…
Strong agree. I've seen devs with 20 years of experience on me write silly inefficient code because they're lulled into a false sense of security by the marketing of async/await. Multithreading is one of the hardest…
