You’re downvoted because it appears cynical about something that appears to have no reasonable alternative but you’re correct

Thread you’re in:

> They've even been caught putting them back up or re-enabling them in places where the contract has been canceled.

Community is oriented around policing each others content (upvote downvote flag vouch). The behaviors spill over into the other lever (reply)

I didn't suggest interchangeability at all. And no problem with credit. My commentary is on how people write about the actor.

lol

I misspoke placing focus on them as people. I’m also referring to how people talk about performance. Of course he was a legendary performer. But a lot of the talk and this article is about things that were on paper or provided as direction. That’s just the script and I don’t see much articulation of what made him a good performer in ways beyond what he was told to express, aside from perhaps his aura (or as this crowd prefers, “presence”)

Those things are in the script and it’s his job to express them. I think most people don’t have the media literacy to express what the appreciate about a performance beyond what was already on the page and what what came from direction.

Gottfried doesn't have the range to express those, of course. You undersell Stewart's work if you express it in terms of what some others can't do - that makes him sound interchangeable with those who can express the scripted character.

Better comparison there is a line cook dying and praising how they executed some of the head chef’s recipes

It’s weird to me because he didn’t write the character and didn’t even watch the show. These tributes aren’t about him.

It’s like writing an obit about how much you like warmed hotdogs when local 7-11 worker dies and everyone sharing their taste for warm hotdogs in the comments.

Next year Apple will be culling apps that update without Duo adaptation

How is it for Japanese

Those changes are already in the latest macOS. So feel free to share your opinion on what we’ve already been using instead of speculating.

I just don’t understand stabbing pointed fingers at the screen to use it vs tapping the pads of my fingers like an iPad.

Besides holding my arms up it’s also painful to keep my wrists bent to get a better angle for my fingers to articulate.

Try phone + foldable

Huge screen that's pocketable and also your primary device (not a 2nd device you need to choose to carry in addition to your phone, and have a bag for) and ability to have 2 apps at once on iOS is in fact highly valuable for many.

I know plenty of people at Meta at a variety of levels without that kind of pedigree

If you insisted on taking the time to do this in the OP’s role at Meta, I’m guessing that you’d be disciplined or fired for taking too long to produce work. You’d also be dropped into work of colleagues who didn’t produce UML before shipping their code.

It's like asking why an expert pizza maker is not in a better position to succeed now that he has an excellent pizza delivery number he can call to have one available to his specification in an instant.

You shouldn’t because this is wrong a huge percent of the time, like 20-50%. It’s an interesting trick but please don’t use it as a learner. Even the demo has mistakes.

They are just repeating old tropes about unprofitability without reassessing

It's not hard to spend $200. But OP suggested that it was the standard going rate and that it's unaffordable to them.

They're accusing me of cheating Amazon and having experienced a ban myself. Neither is the case and my post didn't indicate either being so.

IDK why I'm catching an accusation and downvotes by telling people about Amazon customer support protocols that are internal policy but not documented publicly: that they will ban you for returns past some threshold of frequency and price, and they offer refunds for items that arrive damaged even if they first push you to spend your time returning them instead.

You're suggesting I've been banned for abusing the service?

I've never been banned and I don't abuse it. What I said is also true, that I don't drive etc.

I don't need to have been banned myself to know how they've operated with others. And seeking refunds for goods that were damaged upon arrival is not abuse. There's no need to give in to their first preference to return an item when it is in fact their policy to process refunds for them too, they just hide it behind customer service protocols instead of exposing it in UI. You don't need to settle for the first suggested remediation from a business's customer service to be ethical, or shaming people for escalating. That's just being a chump.

Prices have risen faster than wages but $200 is a choice. They simply have high standards and treat it like poverty.

Just bear in mind that if they don't like how often you return or the circumstances, they will issue you a sudden lifetime ban

But also if you go to support chat (not via the order details, which often rejects attempts at getting support) via the site footer, and escalate to an agent, you can tell them you don't have a post office that's easy to get to for you and don't drive etc. and they will just issue you a refund (if it's a quality problem). Done this many times when the product was damaged.

Flock cameras are deployed in locations that cannot monitor traffic, too.

If most companies take that much time before giving you a rejection or not, then job hunting would require quitting your current job to make sufficient time for it. With ten companies you’d need to organize something like 3-4 weeks of vacation.
