That really needs to change also. That made sense back when it was just recording something in public that a random officer could have seen, but it’s no longer the same thing. No police force could have such large scale comprehensive surveillance and recording based on what an officer could have seen in public .

The fact that you could even have an officer overstep his authority to stalk someone one nationwide for personal reasons, is not just a failure of privacy safeguards, but proof that large scale surveillance is not the same as “what any random officer could have seen”

There needs to be a threshold, beyond which a warrant is required

Fwiw I’ve been telling my kids to reject the UNsubsidized loans (the ones where interest starts carrying immediately). But that only works because I’ve managed to save the money to pay that share in addition to the normal share

No it’s just predatory. As long as students believe college is essential and that is the only way to get it, the loans are predatory. It doesn’t help teens to understand if they don’t have a choice.

As someone who cares about my society, I believe it is essential for all students to have access to post-high school education, and as more than just job training. We need more people who can think better …. It’s in our own best interest to invest in our future: let’s make public universities/trade schools free to all who are interested

An ICE raid?

Hell there’s room for a huge dystopian movie about this. Start off with mikes and miles of rusted out shut down factories, maybe do like the Star Trek one energy where there used to be a car manufacturer industry long ago and far away…… maybe segue into the endless droid army from “Geonosis” and a shot of gilded age oligarchs laughing while looking down from Elyssium

That’s excellent! Better now than last year when I might have had lingering feelings over cybertruck - just like that first crush you can’t get over no matter how toxic they are

I do for things where I want to be accurate, but sometimes it seems like I’m the only one

On the other hand I advised my teen to buy the wrong battery because I didn’t click into the results for “what battery do i need to replace in my Subaru key?”

People don’t seem to know how to use the overhead bins or take too many carryons. I’ve had to rearrange people’s suitcases for them, or put mine several seats away, or have the flight attendant take mine. It’s really annoying.

There’s also impatience. The later I board the more likely I am to be standing there a long time behind people futzing around taking their time to get situated regardless of how many of us are waiting.

For me it’s the “good service” side of the coin. Actually it’s specifically “more likely to have a direct flight and not find extra fees to pile on”

Currently the price changes by market conditions and timing. So not everyone pays the same.

Thats a different scale than literally everyone paying a different price. It’s also different than applying all the data they’ve collected from and about you to set a price specifically for you to extract the most profit from you

Don’t remind me …. The doublespeak at my company …… we had to use GitHub for the built in AI, but couldn’t even evaluate GitLab’s AI because it costs extra

Note that the top “ribbon “ is visible from all of those ribbon choices, while the content pane stuff, like the “About” box are only visible in “Code”

Comments like this are so frustrating to see, as my company goes backwards, moving from Gitlab to GitHub.

I appreciate the hidden camera adds a new layer but this isn’t anything new. Tik tok exists and behavior like this was already too common.

While I do have cast iron skillets for my induction cooktop, I get nervous about

• they are rough/abrasive and the glass is slippery so they slide around too easily, potentially scratching the surface (nothing visible yet though)
• they can be heavy. While I am not too worried about dropping them, I have put them down harder than I like when a full large skillet is hard to hold one handed

Yeah size is everything for induction. It’s important to note that only the part of the pan directly on the coil gets hot.

I don’t know if a full clad conductive layer even helps, since the same is true of the few aluminum pans I have. The sidewalls and any part of the bottom protruding past the coil do not get hot enough to cook with.

As a tip: with induction I use lids a lot more. For example a fried egg doesn’t really cook on top without a lid. Similar to cheese on a cheeseburger. Need a lid

While I can’t help with the data you seek, I can recommend preferring 3ply

One of the features I never considered was weight. When I ditched my non stick pans for something more permanent, I got

• Kirkland (Costco) branded 5-ply. In general they are excellent for an even better price. However they’re pretty heavy so I get complaints from others who use them. I don’t entirely see the problem but 3ply would be lighter
• cast iron. Yeah, a bit heavy, especially the larger skillet. Most people might prefer the weight of carbon steel, although that’s much pricier

Huh …. Then I remember all those cakes I made as a kid with my moms help were so much better than crap from a grocery, but I no longer have time or practice to do that

I could have sworn mine does that - show the number when under 20% but I don’t see a relevant setting

Sure that was why there was never really a business case for Concorde, but ……

• I would pay a little more to get there a little faster. Research is not only trying to quiet the boom but also trying to make it more economical.
• I believe the company listed there is focusing on private jets. Someone who can afford a private jet might be more likely to pay a premium to get there faster
