Maybe I'd add "and that others could see/touch/smell/hear/taste" - clarifying around vivid imagination, synesthesia, and that reality should be shared. It's the things all reasonable folks can agree about (given sufficient time and access).

As one of the few folks who have asked such questions, I obviously am against. I don't think the dedicated pol communities are particularly good for honest questions about platforms/political figures; everything in those spaces feels like it's being intentionally spun (even in discussions) in a way that this community does not. (Also, several of the communities you suggest as pol discussion places are... just not? Extremely few questions, most the posts are headlines, discussions don't seem to happen much. Some feel closer to a curated feed of cringe.)

I do agree it could become an issue, and that would justify some division, perhaps tags? But I don't think it is currently very unpleasant, and it will almost certainly get better in 2 months (at least short term).

I think the scary thing is if it takes the suppliers more than 3 days to figure that out. Companies oftentimes can last 3 days without food (and rarely fix things very quickly at any scale).

That one seems kinda scary - if inflation was 6% and something wasn't sold at any profit, all stores would stop selling it. (This is true for most food.)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Agreed, that would be.

But the most they could have done is 308% instead of that 300%, and I think they managed to get lots and lots of small stores to do it at the same time.

What do the laws on the book look like?

I'll note that grocers record profits are orders of magnitude less than the price increases. Maybe somebody is getting rich off of the price increases, but I'm pretty sure Walmart is not.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'll note that grocers seem to have made very little profit per American in the last few years; Walmart made ~$70 off each of us last year, which seems incompatible with the price increases I've been seeing...

 

The Harris-Walz campaign has said they want to create a federal ban on corporate price gouging (usually mentioned when folks talk about price hikes in grocery stores). I see economists complaining about variations of this policy being bad, e.g. leading to food desserts. But as far as I can tell there hasn't been anything specific proposed. Could someone explain our best guess at what they are proposing, and if it's been serious analyzed/tested elsewhere?

They cite existing legislation in the states; maybe explaining what that legislation does/how it works would be helpful?

Also my impression. Seems like it's manufactured, encouragement not to engage with any of it?

 

Open source repo in link, and most recent patch was just a few months ago! Single player had several nice puzzles, took a nice 30 minutes. Includes 2 player mode and a level creator.

Note it's 'hold leftclick and swipe' to cut an edge in the browser/pc.

 

I have been having a very nice run today with: 4x one drops (ideally some scalers) Zabu and Psylock Wiccan storm Legion and Blink Loki (or some other stuff generator)

plus some cheap stuff. The dream is to play cards in the order above, something like sunspot - zabu - wiccan - 2drop + storm - legion the flooding and lock the opponent out on turn 6. But most every game I either get the full scam combo, or the wiccan line. Retreat if you don't start with a one drop (which is quite rare).

Would you then be posting your conclusions? Like, if you're gonna do that work on some of these posts anyway... may as well share.

Bravo for bringing the notes. On a first glance, some of these feel like they require subjectivity (like, do we really believe the political spectrum is 1d?), but I agree I could run the computation myself from this.

I'd probably provide a link to a 3d-print of the tile, and/or describe the vague shape without the precise measurements. Something like "the tile is shaped like an isometric view of a top-hat, with a bite taken out of the top left". To be honest, I don't think the diagrams are all that load-bearing for people who can see either - hard to parse, impossible to tell if they are honest, etc. That's why there's so many proofs. Finally, for the actual connections one could break it into an adjacency graph. Each tile a vertex, each flat face dual to an edge (labeled with which face), and specify them out.

All this said; I'm not an expert. Part of why I'm excited for the forum and wanted to share.

And there is no "the" way to accessibility, surely. It takes dozens of things, most small. I agree visual LLMs will/have been a nice tool.

 

You may have seen that cool new arXiv feature 'experimental HTML' - this is about stuff like that! Latex (and hence a lot of math research) is not well suited to screen readers, but HTML is. If you'd like to learn more about how your paper can be in the format, or just about how to make research more accessible, this could be useful!

 

And, for bonus points, how are they made?

These seem like an awfully important test piece. I'm pretty sure they're just checking for glucose with some enzyme or something. But who knows, maybe its something simple or everyday? Are all brands using the same materials?

I'm not very good at telling when I need more sunlight, exercise, or even food. But I can tell when our pet needs things, and find it pretty motivating to take care of them (and hence myself).

 

I have been walking to the nearest grocery, and have just had my foldable shopping cart break. The large plastic wheels shattered, and made for a very unpleasant time dragging the thing back home. I'm curious if anyone has suggestions for a good cart, or even one that's relatively easy to repair. Foldable is not important. Not getting stuck on every crack in the sidewalk would be a plus.

 

I've got an old iphone SE 2 second hand, pretty sure the seller is dead at this point. I'd like to use a new sim card, but the carrier is locked (I think Tmobile)?

Glancing online, it seems like the retailer will want proof of purchase. Is there anyway to do this easily from home, or should I start looking at jailbreaking it? (This is for a friend; I'd rather keep this as simple as possible)

Follow up for any future wanderers: This worked, but only because the seller was indeed dead. They asked me to pay the balance on the account, took a credit card payment, and then unlocked it ~5 min later. Not too painful.

 

Policy video on assisted dying by a UK doctor. Youtube has decided not to promote it as an intense topic, so I'm putting it here.

FWIW, I don't think the video will be particularly triggering. It's heavy, but they are quite focused on the case of physiologically terminally ill patients.

 

Just played a game and saw a weird bug - I loki'd their kitty pryde while mobius and quinjet was around. After it got pulled back to my hand it gave the 'Can't Do!' popup throughout the ending location effects and next draw/turn. Stopped after... a lot of pop-ups.

 

I've recently wanted a more programmable one, as my work recently broke the shared calendar (but haven't broke the rss feed for it, yet!). Suggestions?

 

Should I be using a controller, a keyboard, or something else? I heard that it was developed for PC, has that remained the better UI?
