Native keyboard shortcuts are there for all to use to switch desktops, but the fading in/out animations that last around 1s completely prevent fast desktop switches as is so useful in i3/sway.
When I looked this up on an apple support forum, the replies were all basically: "Why would you want to disable this feature? Apple designers know better than you, go back to Windows"
They're not wrong. When you buy an Apple product and try to customize it you're not doing what it's made for. It's like trying to use a golf club to hit a baseball.
this is one of my biggest annoyances about macOS. I actually want to keep the vast majority of animations, the only one I want gone is the desktop transition, because it feels so jarring.
Either make the transition instant, or bring back the old behavior where the dock and desktop remain static during the slide animation.
Millions of families make this reasoning and spend $30k or more per year and per kid from age 2. Very few of these kids make it to Harvard or other top 4 colleges, maybe 1 will become president.
Sane Western countries have free and decent public education; and parents can't withdraw their future retirement early to fund dreams.
The GP is unclear as to whether the loan happened before or after the friend obtained a job offer. Loaning moving expenses money to someone who just got a high-paying job offer and needs the moving money to start the job does not sound that risky.
It is worth wondering about that. My first job out of college offered an interest-free loan (paid back by paycheck deductions over 2 years) for moving expenses.
A field is more delicate if it needs to be enlarged (into a larger field) for all polynomials with coefficients in the field to have roots. There is rich and intricate structure in the possible successive enlargements.
For the field C of complex numbers, all polynomials already have roots so there is no need to enlarge. In that sense the complex field has much less structure than the smaller ones (Z, Q, R).
With vim and the qtconsole side by side you can send lines and selections (or entire cells delimited with #%%) to execute in the qtconsole. Plots appear in the qtconsole.
Since Covid, NYC daycares have uniformly updated their sick policy. Child has fever or one diarrhea, has to wait home 3 days before returning. E.g.: Daycare calls the parents to pick up a sick child on Tuesday midday, child can return next Monday at the earliest.
While it used to just barely make sense to send kids to daycare for parents with 2 kids with each parent earning $120,000, it is now simply impossible unless a parent stops working or both parents have extremely flexible jobs where they can put their professional duties on hold for half a week without notice.
> The loss of arts and social sciences would be a catastrophe for the academic world.
But a blessing for most students who need a job to pay their student debts after graduation. Sacrificing art students by taking their tuition knowing no or too few jobs exist is unacceptable. Keeping social sciences and art departments alive should require a source of money that does not create non-dischargeanle student debts and jobless students.
That, to me, sounds like an argument for funding trade schools and raising their status in society so they're considered more often. As I understand it, a university education was never intended to be a gateway to employment, yet it became one as a byproduct of how we as a society talked about it. I was told countless times in adolescence how much of an income gap existed between those with a college degree and those that didn't have one.
Software development, for example, very much falls under a trade, else there wouldn't be so many bootcamps that both feed into the industry and simultaneously take advantage of those who don't know better. There's no prestigious trade school that I'm aware of that produces consistently competent software developers. That's just one example, but I'd love to see more trade schools supported and elevated as a path to career employment.
> As I understand it, a university education was never intended to be a gateway to employment
It also wasn't intended for middle class people of average intelligence. Consider, before WW2 only about 10% of people attended college. You either came from money or you were a rather bright person. Today it is an employment gateway. People mainly attend to "get a good job", not for the pursuit of higher knowledge and "finishing". For those of humble origins that want to use it to discover themselves or become an "intellectual", well enjoy the 100k debt while slinging lattes.
> There's no prestigious trade school that I'm aware of that produces consistently competent software developers.
MIT? At least, it was accused of being a trade school toward the beginning of its history:
> These reforms were largely a response to Walker's on-going defense of the Institute and its curriculum from outside accusations of overwork, poor writing, unapplicable skills, and status as a "mere" trade school.
These days, one might think of U Waterloo as filling the role of a prestigious trade school given the focus they put on their co-op program. Which I mean in a positive light, of course.
If you leave the property unattended and squatters move in, after 48h of them being on the property, you cannot have law enforcement kick them out and have to use the courts for months of proceedings.
I clearly don't understand all the dynamics here - but this seems completely ludicrous. So I go away for a weekend, someone breaks into my home, and when I come back I am homeless? Where is the delineation between "someone breaking into my home" and "squatting"?
Sometimes in England a landlord will be attempting to illegally evict a lawful (non-squatting) tenant, so the tenant calls the police for help and is surprised when the police assist in the illegal eviction! Obviously this is not supposed to happen. The police should not be evicting people just because some random told them he owned a property and it was being squatted.
On the other hand, the legal situation for evicting squatters in your home isn't so bad here. You have 28 days after you find out you are being squatted, and the eviction only takes 24 hours.
Unless you register all tenancies with the state (which seems like massive overreach) how can the police quickly determine the lawful possessor?
Property ownership is public information, in the US at least. I bet many/most of these situations could be solved by simply verifying that the evictor is the property owner
To avoid confrontation in the 48h window, a good squatter strategy is to target summer or weekend houses that have typically other weekend houses next to it so that neighbours aren't there and won't alert the owner.
Then squatters move in in two steps. First they do a small break in and leave, observing whether someone notices and fixes the first break in. If the first break in goes unnoticed, it is probably safe to move in, change the locks and squat there permanently as nobody will confront them in the 48h window.
Bringing a toothbrush and knowing your rights. If make it look like you're living there and say you have a verbal agreement, cops will let the courts handle it.
Super rich people have the same phone as me. They got the same vaccine as me. The same flue as everyone else can knock them down every winter. On average their kids die with the same frequency and for the same reasons as mine.
Once you get a decent salary utity of money decreases badly.
