Ever heard of PROMIS? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PROMIS_(software)

I think this really works. While at Datadog, at one point I would write deep dives on monitoring applications like HAProxy, OpenStack and others. I would start with what to look for, how to monitor those things with off-the-shelf tooling, and finally how to do it with Datadog. The response from the community was overall very positive, regardless of whether or not they ended up converting to users (though many did).

This is great. I once worked at a company called Paribus that would argue with customer service to get a refund on your behalf for retailers and credit cards with price drop protection. Wouldn't be surprised to see in the future a more maliciously-tuned bot for things like fraudulently claiming non-delivery of goods.

The revolution will not be recorded.

A couple questions, if you don't mind. How did you go about finding clients? What is the nature of the work agreement—project-based, hourly, or something else?

In the author's defense, a primary usecase is listed in the first graphic under the top paragraph (and the sentence just below the image highlights it).

This is such a simple, fantastic idea. I went to enable it but unfortunately it does not appear to be an option available in all BIOSes.

There is also the official press release on the DOJ site: https://www.justice.gov/usao-ndca/pr/san-jose-police-union-e...

A bit off topic but I enjoyed reading the bar exam questions you linked and also found that Virginia publishes their answers. For those interested, you can view them by year (the answers also contain the question text): https://barexam.virginia.gov/bar/barsampleanswer.html

Yes and if you look at the comment history of the posters in that thread, it is clear they are all spam accounts.

There are a number of tools including AA Mirror that cast the phone screen to the center console (via connected USB cable).

We definitely used datadog to monitor internal systems while I was there many years ago. Dogfooding was a celebrated practice and I'd be surprised to learn that it's changed.

I'm a bit surprised that SpaceX wouldn't be subject to ITAR. This article [0] from 2016 seems to say they are.

That's popsci for you. There is a worthwhile section on slime molds beyond that image but all in all the article was pretty light on details (though links to additional sources are present and appreciated).

exercism.org (no affiliation) is pretty good in that regard, offering a cli to facilitate doing the exercises locally using tools you're already familiar with.

The common theme seems to be a tight feedback loop between developers and customers. Stakeholders acting autonomously is a big flag they called out, too. I would be interested in reading an updated version of this draft if anyone knows of one.

As someone who loves SimAnt I would be interested in following your development if possible.

in the US, I believe states have to meet federal laws, they can't pass a law saying "murder is legal" or whatever. It's an imperfect system, but so is the US system.

Marijuana is illegal at the federal level yet many states have legalized it.

By this logic, ticket scalpers provide significant value.

It is a feature in iOS called Express Cards: https://support.apple.com/guide/security/express-cards-with-...

One can easily find elevator override keys online. If this capability existed its use could not be limited to authorized emergency services.

At least for the python percentage, it is skewed as both `py` and `pxd` contain python code.

There's roku, apple tv, and firestick in this market, not to mention the proliferation of smart features embedded into TVs. I wouldn't say chromecast is a clear winner there.

Yes, it's a service to keep files on your devices in sync with one another. https://syncthing.net/

I was intrigued by your post but unfortunately after visiting the site I see no indication of pricing. Since an account is required to submit a stack, I did not proceed without a clear idea of potential cost.

I really loved ssb and even ran my own instance at one point but found the reference implementation hard to replicate based on the documentation at the time and the network itself seemed somewhat unscaleable. As I recall, your client keeps a full record of posts and so after following a modest number of people my local storage grew to several gigabytes. When I was running the server, it needed regular restarting to keep things operational.

Of course there are third party apps like Tasker that are much more capable than both action blocks and shortcuts.

The scheme outlined is not UBI in that it is not universal (subject to income requirements) and money is allocated by lottery. I haven't seen earnest UBI proposals suggesting a lottery style distribution and means testing is counter to the concept of UBI.

Google has something similar to Shortcuts, called Action Blocks.

Not sure why this is downvoted, the stadia controller does indeed contain a microphone.
