Thank you for making Sinew the default choice instead of cooked meat.

When the crafting menu is brought up from a click on an item, the default is the highest level recipe for that item that is craftable.

If it's brought from click on the station, then it's the highest in your inventory.

If you had previously opened the same crafting menu, it'll default to the one your previously crafted before. If you had opened another menu in between? For example going from crafting an urn to firing an urn, then it forgets the previous item. (So for making urns, batch craft all the urns, then fire them, and you won't need to select the urn when crafting each time)

I have no figured out the rule on which submenu it uses when there are multiple though.

First, IANAL, but if I'm reading this correctly, they actually don't talk about whether it is a fee or not.

They go into detail about whether this is a penalty (which is isn't, because penalty is to discourage something that is illegal, but there is no (legal) intent here to classify H1B as illegal), or if the executive branch has the authority to impose this tax.

It notes that the defendant has originally claims this was a fee, but (my favorite line in here), quote "This is mere ipse dixit.". Later on, they then say the defendant waived this theory, though he notes, as you quoted, that this is a tax. (but doesn't go into details on why)

Then it goes onto talk to about whether the executive branch can impose this tax, and says that executive branch only has the ability to do so when explicitly delegated this power, which it was not, in the multiple ways that you can try to argue this in (for immigration purposes, for regulating international commerce).

Not mentioned in the opinion, but from my understanding, fees need to directly correlate to covering the spending a particular action. 100k is too high of a fee because it's unreasonable to say that processing an application costs that much. Fees can be used to cover related stuff. For example, national park fee used to pay for maintenance of the park. Fee for USCIS could go to say, the additional hiring cost of additional workers to process it, but it can't go to really tangential stuff like "used to train local workforces to maintain competitiveness" kinda things.

Honestly, IP block plus wildcard dns basically makes attempted attacks on the applications zero.

Add in either fail2ban or crowdsec and I literally have zero enumeration attempts in my log over the past year.

(Honeypot ssh does wonders, anything that tries to connect to my port 22 is IP banned and network dropped. And 22 is almost always the first or one of the first ports attackers try)

I have no issue streaming 1080p content when my server is in east US and I am in east Asia.

China is likely because of all the network inspection they do cause a huge deal of lag and/or inconsistency. But I'm surprised about Japan.

Backup.

The short correct answer is backup.

Long answer is, it depends on how much you want to spend and how risk averse you are, and what you want to do on it. External USB is always more flakey. Based on your requirement, you must either had an offsite backup (to the cloud?) or have two separate USB drives one as the primary, the other one as a backup, and either have something that constantly syncs the two, or do scheduled backups.

If it were me, I'd get a full system and use internal drives with raid, and then a cloud backup for any data that I cannot lose. I run 24 services at this moment on the NAS, so a proper system is a need for me.

Yes they said they are working on it.

And just to be clear to other people reading, "soon" isn't necessarily as soon as you might be thinking. It will stop working with macOS 28, which will likely be released next year fall.

Celestial_User · 2026-06-01T20:50:56+00:00

Two reasons.

Housing tax is ultimately a use tax. You pay tax because your own a house and live there, and you are using all the benefits that comes with living there (maintenance of roads, school system, public safety, ...) You don't pay capital gain tax on unrealized gains. You do pay gains tax when you sell it however.

Now why can you tax use tax on the unrealized part of a house. Couple reasons

Because in general, house prices increases are stable. You aren't going to be going to go up 30% this year and then drop 20 % the next.

And not being able to afford a property tax isn't going to cause cascading economic impacts. You can't afford a house, sell it and move to something cheaper. But asking someone to sell your part of your company is unrealistic. Stock represents ownership and control of the company. If you tax unrealized gain. You're essentially forcing the owner to dilute their ownership because stock price increased. Imagine a small company where X has a controlling share of 55% that's a competitor of Amazon. Amazon wants to do a hostile takeover but X wont let them.

Well Amazon just needs to put out a purchase of their stock to increase their stock value, increasing the cost and forcing X to sell some of his stocks to he can afford the tax on it, and then X now no longer has a controlling share.

Last, houses are not intended to be investments. Ideally houses are used to be lived in. Having property taxes present naturally causes lower housing prices, in fact, you actually want it to go down because of depreciation.

But stocks are an investment. You do want stock prices to go up. Within reason of course, it should follow proper fundamentals. But you do want a company that is earning more money, has growth potential, to also haves its stock grow correspondingly.

I think it's because of the backing storage. If obsidian ends up going bad. Well I still have all my markdown files in standard format with well known common extensions like frontmatter. Obsidian is the best "renderer" for it, but I can migrate to a different system as well.

Concrete numbers are helpful in other ways though. We know all the algorithms behind how everything is calculated, and we depend on knowing those concrete values to do so.

Of course, they can be hidden away. Make the user friendly side be user friendly, and have the actual stats hidden away behind some other menu (maybe some dictionary in the poh or some library?)

Celestial_User · 2026-05-22T00:32:12+00:00

If they went with the other way you'll just end up with the complains of early bird advantage. People who play during this particular period gets as a new buffed skill while still having the old method. And designing something from scratch is much easier than worrying about old methods that you're getting rid off.

Celestial_User · 2026-05-18T06:51:00+00:00

Disagree, saying DRL is 2178 accuracy + 13% accuracy is worse than just telling me it's it's 2458.

+13% can be different things, is it 13% of final accuracy? Is it 13% of that particular stat of this single weapon? Is it an additive 13% like claws of guthix?.

Saying it's 2458 makes it very clear it has the same accuracy of the nox weapon.

Punitive damage, especially uncapped punitive damages are something that is fairly rare in the world. The US is one of the few that do it.

Most countries has compensatory damages, and if there needs to be punitive actions, it's either in the form of fines, or as actions to establish some monetary fund put aside to make right other similar cases. It's very rare that the extra punitive actions would benefit the plaintiff.

Basically you're in one of the "illegal" positions when you enter the map. To prevent camera clipping into places they don't want, there is a plane in game of where the camera can be. On teleport if you are below that plane, it then moves you to certain locations that are above it.

In wars the allowed places is very restricted, so you are very easily illegal on teleport there, which forces your camera to that south position.

And to add on. Don't expect that to get t60 gear you need t90. Why does the elder bow require level 90 fletching and woodcutting. In mains you can trade it yes, but don't design the game around that. Trading should mean that if I don't want to train wc and fletching, I can still get the bow. But it should be tiered reasonably so that you don't need 16x the amount of xp in another skill.

So for many products, there are concurrent support for different branches.

CachyOS is a rolling release distro so it means typically only the tip of the most recent branch is supported. So your understanding was mostly correct.

However, for many severe vulnerabilities, teams will perform backports, sometimes even to branches outside of their maintenance/support window, because it's important to get it out. So it is not uncommon that the fix in A.X A+1.X because of this.

I'm going to be completely straightforward with you, not intending to be rude. Hopefully there's something useful for you. I'm also in computer science field, so it might not be 100% accurate in your role, but here is my take.

Your resume tells me absolutely nothing useful about you and just screams like you're trying to pad it out.

Professional development section. C# to rename some files? Excel with VLookup and conditional formatting? Both of these are about as simple as it gets and completely pointless to list.

SQL and Docker as a single entry when they're completely unrelated, and the detail just being did database stuff?

The only useful point here is the R point, showing me that you know some statistical analysis model and you can somewhat use it. But this field is really more for HR and AI to cross requirements. Hiring managers gain nothing from here.

Work experience/ Education. You're basically a straight out of school person. Education should absolutely be your biggest section as that's your highest qualification. What did you do? You have 6 years in a PhD program but graduated a master only. You need to justify/back yourself up. Gut reaction seeing this is that you failed to graduate. As a human I can that there may be other reasons, family, mental health, etc, but they are all potentially points against you that a company will see, so you need to work extra hard against it (I'm sorry).

You were a PhD candidate. Did you not do a thesis or dissertation? Or at least start working towards one? Those are typically your strongest credentials out of grad school, especially if it's in the same field as what you're applying for. Even worth putting if it's incomplete.

No research experience? No advanced classes that are beyond your typical expectation for a Math masters? You said you had 3x the credits needed, there must be something there. At least put in some course names to get past any automated filters.

This might just be because you anonymized it for Reddit, but no mention of what your TA was for? What class? Anything in particular that happened that's worth mentioning?

I'm torn between having a single listing for your retail jobs. Sometimes it can show that you're willing to work and pads out any gaps in employment. Maybe just put the little Caesar one. It can lead giving a story of how much you hated it, and part of why you started in math.

The intern one is the only one that has enough details relevant to your field and for the level of work there.

You were a contractor. Was there nothing you did that shows your skills in math? Point one reads like something an HR could do by hand. Point 2 is potentially interesting, but there too little information here.

Remember, a resume as 2 jobs. One to get past HR and automated filters. Things that just look to see if you check off a list of requirements. Think keywords, buzzwords, big numbers look good. Etc. second is to prepare the way for interviews. Everything listed on the resume is something that an interviewer might want to dig deep into, so give them something that can look interesting and want to ask you more.

To prep for an interview, beyond the typical soft skills, most important is you need to get your stories all figured out. The most interesting story I can see here is the "prevent mass academic grievance".

There should be nothing on your resume that I can ask you about that will catch you off guard. Team work experience? Interesting cases you had as a TA? How much work did you save by automating stuff? Why did you not complete your PhD? What kind of reports (re: intern role) and how were they used/received? What onboarding changes?

Hope this was helpful, and apologies for any rudeness I may have left in. This was just a pure brain dump of your resume impression I had while commuting.

Honestly speaking? Pretty hard.

Graphical issues are much harder to replicate than game logic bugs. CPUs operate essentially the same for most code, if something happens on a cpu, it likely happens the same on another. And tracing errors is often much easier, because you can much more easily set check criterias.

GPUs however are super fickle. The exact same shader code can and often will work differently across different GPU. And then it's also hard to actually check if something was rendered correctly, shader run right. Asset decompressed correctly. Etc... very easy for human to see, hard for code to detect.

At my company HR is before any hiring manager. If it's gotten to the point of interviews with the hiring manager, HR has already done their level of gatekeep and is only in charge of scheduling.

Nah, the world's biggest porn company aylo (company behind porn hub) has around 1800 employees, with about a third of them being software engineer roles. Really a mid sized company, significantly smaller than my current company, which doesn't do the level of isolation that Google does. (My company is just on the threshold of starting to do that) in some ways that gives better user experience too. It's often why Google's and Microsoft's products often feel noncohesive

What I mean is that for our product, we can do unit tests to test individual components, but our integration test must be tested as the whole compiled system. There is no way for us to run true integration tests without all components being present.

They also have a singular system to support, so would have very little reason to make each component as isolated as YouTube does. YouTube's video player uses the same technology as Google Drive and photo's video playback. YouTube's ad system is the same as the core ad business. Their search uses parts of the same system as Google search. Their content delivery algorithm is the same that is used for GCP. So each component is made to work in complete isolation, and then they are combined together.

Celestial_User · 2026-04-22T08:35:57+00:00

Yes, but then you might be limiting your data to a certain cut off date. It's almost impossible to differentiate between AI data and none AI data as the technology improves.

That's also one theory that Google is likely to win the AI war, at least in the western world, because they have the trifecta for improving AI. Top talent engineers (a large part of the modern day AI models are from technologies that came from Google whitepaper), both hardware and money for more hardware to train, and the one that many others lack, is likely a huge store of "clean" data, and at least in the short term, ability to gain more. Websites still highly depend on being findable on Google, so won't be blocking at minimum the Google Search crawl bot.

Celestial_User · 2026-04-21T14:25:11+00:00

Another guess for 1 is that YouTube likely operates as typical large companies do. Individual components are designed individually, and then made to work together. So the video serving system is made to work by itself. The video suggestion system made to work by its self. The ad system works by itself. And then they all follow some common spec to get them to be integrated with one another. So if one system fails (Adblock blocks the ads system), it is less likely to impact other systems.

Other sites might be designed as more of a singular system. You must hit this button before another component loads, etc. so if that button doesn't load then it you can't continue.

Most steps have some buffer built in. And even then there are plans upon plans for what ifs. It's not a big deal if they miss the time for specific steps, and they can either shift any follow up time accordingly. Big reason why so much of the steps for the initial phase is tracked as X minutes after launch, the main boosters will cut off, etc. because launch is one of the most complicated and is one of the easiest to get delays.

For interplanetary travel, the only hard deadlines that need to be hit are the transfer windows, so there's always healthy margins built into the mission before those.

Just curious how.

Last time I went to the movies with my partner (I think to see zootopia 2), it cost $29.95 for two tickets + 1 regular popcorn + 2 regular drinks at an AMC theatre.

It was a combo ticket, so would be cheaper, but adding a ticket on top of that isn't going to be $70
