Somehow I am mostly just surprised that Nature's graphic designers feel that pie charts are an effective visual communication tool. One of many articles on the topic https://xviz.com/blogs/pie-charts-good-bad-or-ug

That's an interesting channel, though I've personally found it problematic. Nearly all its videos are very strongly negative on China. That makes me wonder do they have an agenda and are they twisting the truth in some cases? Woul

I avoid using git command line for all the reasons above Personally I use a UI for git which basically solves all of these problems. All the branches and commits are visible. If you want something somewhere, right click on it and you'l

It is far easier imo to just use a dedicated window switcher which shows all open windows right away https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app/

I find native window switching extremely painful and cumbersome on Mac. Very highly recommend Alt Tab for fixing these issues https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app I basically can't use a Mac in any reasonable capacity without

While an interesting investigation, I have to wonder why it took over a decade to think to compare the non cannonball details in the photos to figure out which came earlier.. I guess hindsight is 20-20 but does kind of seem like an obvious

Agreed for sure. In either type of war though, I think we're agreed it's best to leave civilians out?

I mean I don't think that forgetting our principles and indiscriminately screwing with everything inside Russia's borders because it's all fair game is the way to go either. So for example in this case if we want to damage th

Kind of need to ask. Does this giant data dump from a censorship organization also include gathered personal data from private citizens? In which case this probably should not be made public.

This is coming from the Ukraine government so.. Seems more likely the scare is coming from Ukraine to stoke international outrage at Russia?

Weird, I use teams regularly and have no real issues. I've experienced some of the issues others describe here, but they aren't major and every software has some little abrasions here and there. I wouldn't single Teams out at

I use a couple pretty simple measures to get the technical debt idea across, with the numbers variable: "if we invest around 3 months now then we will reduce the time to market of every subsequent feature by about 2x and also decrease

Oh, very cool, thanks for the link. There is something about human memory, since official stance has been on the side of mask mandate for so long, that makes it harder to remember how it was ever different before. Your link is very helpful

I'm mildly surprised that someone's started this github all the way back last summer, and now it's finally become politically relevant. I guess someone's got an app out there somewhere for everything

Sorry I agree with the overall sentiment that party line can shift with time unpredictably, but who had been banned in early 2020 for supporting masks? As I recall people socially self imposed masks in a matter of just a couple weeks early

This is off topic, I was responding to OP's statement that online ads are always useless You may well find that any societal usefulness is offset by your own principles, whether that's privacy or aversion to tech or aversion to ca

You are right of course, it's not a perfect situation and, yes, many times may still not be able to get your cheese grater off the ground. My question remains though - if you are not allowed targeted advertising, what practical alterna

I don't think you've ever started a company with a new product. What if you make the world's best cheese grater. Nobody knows about it. You don't have connections to supermarkets. Smaller stores don't want to carry

That seems a pretty smart short (in retrospect). I guess you were banking on them releasing concrete numbers on the iOS changes and people panicking from it? Seems really obvious in retrospect and relies on pretty common knowledge so I&#x27

Hey. I've never worked for a FAANG, but I am considering joining Facebook. They way I see it, Facebook is hugely impactful and there is real work to do there, ex: flagging disinformation, flagging external government influences, etc.

I did link to several books which provide primary accounts. But that aside, could you cite any of the info you quoted on Bellingcat, specifically its fabrication of evidence? I recently picked up a book on them, but have not read it yet, so

Personally I always rederive it when necessary as P(A|B) * P(B) = P(A U B) = P(B|A) * P(A) => P(A|B) = P(B|A) * P(A) / P(B)

Yeah dude some of the linked satellite photos are pretty clear even for a layperson and as OP says there are direct on the ground photos as well. The investigative group Bellingcat also has a pretty good history of journalism, I'd sugg
