The author of this article only comes as really butthurt.

Also, the article starts off so prescriptively as stating that two spaces after a sentence is just WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG. Then later in the article goes on to admit that '[t]ypographers can point to no studies or any other evidence proving that single spaces improve readability. When you press them on it, they tend to cite their aesthetic sensibilities. As Jury says, "It's so bloody ugly."'
I don't know about you, but I think blowing your entire life savings at Vegas is too reckless.
The US is an outlier, though, New York even more so. More than any city in the US, NYC can claim to be the epicenter and cradle of the kind of mythical nation-history-building to which every nation-culture's opportunistic immigration and subsequent assimilation has contributed to and adopted as their own.

The very notion of the American dream is codified on New York's main landmark: "give me your poor huddled masses" etc. The story of America is necessarily the story of many populations coming together to create something new. The Irish may have the old country to look back on, for example, but their original cultural heritage has been superseded by that of America itself.

Russia has no such story; along with its disparate satellites (Ukraine, Belarus and so on) it has a long history of single peoples mostly staying still, or emigrating. The idea of a "Russian people" with a common cultural heritage has been a fairly constant concept for hundreds of years, whereas "the American people" is a very new one, historically.

White text on a gray background, yeesh. Also, he felt the need to include two copies of the headshot.
I've started using the Pomadoro technique, 30 mins focused work and 5 mins of "break" (there's more to it, but that's the gist).

I'm going to make a real effort to use those 5 minutes to walk around and do something instead of look at lolcats from now on...
In theory, compression before encryption should make encryption faster on a multicore system. However, I'm pretty sure all ssh clients are single-thread, so that wouldn't apply.
The link was changed from a general here are the latest updates article to one more focused on the topic in the headline.
"Too Big to Prosecute"
> This is all a noble goal, but I can't see this as being anything other than a complete and total non-starter with zero cooperation from Apple.

I think marcan has proven he has the chops for pieces like that. The ps4 linux port had him reverse engineering the ISA for the custom risc cores that are some of the deepest firmware of a pretty modern AMD GPU. Like even the open source drivers just treat this stuff as blobs and moves on with their life, but he had to port a fix over and showed off more publicly than anyone else had.

This Apple stuff is for sure more work, but it all seems within his wheelhouse. Hence the patreon I think, attacking the size of the problem with some funding to make it more viable than a side project.
No - bus routes are ephemeral. People won't build businesses and apartment buildings near them, or arrange their lives around them unless the city is blanketed in frequent bus lines (which is a huge investment itself). Because a bus route can be changed in a day, they don't have the attraction of a subway station that is going to be there no matter what the budget looks like.
> If you really want a laugh, read up on how banks are competing to acquire physical currency because cash is cheaper to store in a guarded vault than a database entry with the ECB.

I have read about that, and it was worth a good laugh and a "what's the world coming to" kind of head shake. Mind boggling.
The critiques you have of Macbooks of touchbar and keyboard wouldn't apply to the Mac Mini. And they have an M1 Mac Mini.

Personally, I would love an M1 Mac Mini that ran Linux well. Very exciting development.
Intel has just published a news release on its website stating that Jim Keller has resigned from the company,
effective immediately, due to personal reasons.

Intel’s press release today states that Jim Keller is leaving the position on June 11th ( 2020 ) due to personal reasons. However, he will remain with the company as a consultant for six months in order to assist with the transition. [1]

Six months later he took a new job. Some may want to look back at their comment on the subject. [2] [3]

Still waiting for the Story between Jim and Gerard.

The increased security from 2FA comes from using both factors to authenticate to a service.

If you are not using both, then it's a single factor authentication.

You still haven't answered the core question: how do you do what you propose (keep strong security and allow easier restoration of an account to the real owner) today?
We get mad at FB for spying and then we spy on FB? Fighting fire with fire?
Usually follow the sun support doesn't mean devs around the world working on the same things. That would be harder to coordinate for sure. A big enough company is probably better off hiring SREs instead of having dev teams where every meeting time is bad for someone. And a small enough company is probably better off outsourcing 24 hour coverage.

Why can't the on call people do dev work though? Having someone on call and on deadline isn't realistic. But there should be time between on call issues. And in most code bases there are things someone can work on without coordinating with the rest of the team every day.
Zuckerberg sure has been interesting this week:

> Developers please use our platform!

> Developers we are now going to obsolete any work you've done with the XMPP front-end.

Demonstrating a clear moving target is not how you attract developers, Facebook.
No. Speed has a different meaning when talking about latencies.
http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/experimen...

"The Portable Glovebox (PGB) was developed for the European Space Agency for use on the International Space Station (ISS); it can be transported around ISS and used in any laboratory module. The PGB confines accidental spillage of materials and helps prevent contamination of biological materials when the experiment containers are opened for observations, sampling, and fixations."

Yes. Figuring out design and use of lab equipment for microgravity conditions, as well as actually using it in further experiments, is definitely not beneficial for anything.
Unless you could use an SSD? (most people who compile code are valuable enough that their time warrants the fastest thing available, no?)
As an aside, when you decide to use 24:00 instead of 0:00?
> Got wiped out overnight by a new mod

It is (was) moot's website. Other people aren't the ones who set the rules.

Since the design of the site has official topics for each board, you do have to set limits on what's relevant and make new boards when something new comes up. And it's not always possible to make new boards if you don't have mods for them.

In this case, mixing 2D and 3D can be dangerous. It's also a little unfair in that the yaoi board wouldn't be usable for the same thing.
Realistically all music theory is a joke - an incredibly useful joke if you want to make music, but it's not a theory in any sense of the word: all music theory is, is a group of notations and conventions for characterising sound and how to get a certain sound.

You could regard the period and origin of a given theory as a set of axioms, e.g. African classical music has almost nothing to do with Bach, but you'd be missing the point.

20th century and Levine's books are a good introduction to applying music theory to do bizarre and twisted things when improvising.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_geography cities matter.

You might say "but...but...the internet". Well, perfecting remote work is just the beginning. The unplanned/sponteneous interactions that lead to new relationships also matter. Maybe when we get that soviet internet that browses you.

> I think neither S.V. nor the market is rational.

I agree, and it's possible general "bullshit jobs" and Q.E./softbank bubble type phenomena dwarf the intrinsic value of cities. But still, those are orthogonal effects. Contrary to most American nostalgia, going rural does not defeat the bullshit.
The same is true in the UK. One of the highest rates of bullying in Europe (the other big one is Finland). Somehow, one of the highest rates of sexual violence against girls in schools too (this is globally, so including developing countries).

Obviously, this problem is multi-faceted, the best solution is everyone just going to a nice school. But part of the problem in the UK was that comprehensive education is very ideological, and the belief was: comp schools are so bad because all the good students go to grammar schools. This did not turn out to be accurate.

But London (which is currently in the midst of a knife-crime epidemic) was one of the worst places, and got significantly better due to more investment, and more exclusions/discipline. For example, some schools will get teachers to walk at-risk students directly to their homes from schools. And ofc, the exclusions have caused outcry (funnily enough, there is a split on this between unions, who hate it, and teachers, who quite like it). Incidentally, Glasgow also used to have a serious knife crime problem, and they got over this with enhanced stop-and-search...unf, this is politically impossible in London. There are solutions to all these problems though.

I grew up in the UK, and knew lots of smart kids now working deadend jobs who got chewed up and spit out by schools (almost always the issue was bullying, and schools not removing people who were behaving, in a non-school context, criminally). It is a seriously bad situation imo.
There's a saying (of unconfirmed origin), but I'll use Jay-Z's version: 'A wise man told me don't argue with fools. Cause people from a distance can't tell who is who.'

I think the NYT piece was, like most 'journalism' these days, poorly researched, biased, and unfair. It omitted quotes from insightful passages of SA's, instead picking out those instances of 'impure' thoughts.

But I also think SA does some things that are perhaps signaling to racists/sexists that he's an ally of theirs, or at least intentionally providing a forum for them. Quoting Charles Murray to tell us about the time you agreed with him is much like Congresswoman Mary Miller quoting Hitler when she said, 'Whoever has the youth has the future'. You are giving credibility to these people. Even the quote SA cites (of himself) seems to agree with this:

> But he shares my skepticism that the 55 year old Kentucky trucker can be taught to code, and I don’t think he’s too sanguine about the trucker’s kids either.

The part he left out is that Murray thinks the inability of this trucker to learn is largely because of his genetics. Sure, maybe a poor choice of words. I'll withhold judgment as I haven't read too much of Scott's blog.
Yeah they sure have. Running GPUs endlessly to execute thousands of transactions per day. Do you realize how ridiculous that sounds? You can literally run a pub-sub equivalent of BTC for 1/1,000,000,000 of the cost involved in crypto and a million times more performant while preserving all the benefits touted in cryptos. The reason why we don’t have this isn’t because we can’t. It’s because the financial institutions are too entrenched. And the same institutions have taken over the cryptocurrency space. Do you not see what’s happening?
Any negotiation books that you suggest?
You touched on something that I have been trying to work out but don't nearly have the expertise to create.

Bitcoin requires PoW because it's implemented as back-pointers, where the global software states that everyone coalesces behind the tallest chain.

But why not just implement a linked list, where the next link is written into the current block, and whomever writes to that next block wins? You would end up with endless blocks, but we can use what we learned with ext2 fs, where we have a circular queue. Once the data has been consumed by the main datastore, it is consumed and is available to be written to again.

You can still store the entire chain in some cheap s3, and anyone who wants to ensure that every command was executed could do so, but most would not.

I would love to see this implemented with torrent technology, such that I could host a website database solely by paying a seedbox company.
Those computers are supposed to have disk encryption and MFA. If not someone is in hot water.
Q: "Is there any plans to make user ID system, so that we can add friends without knowing the phone numbers?"
A: Yes, we're working on it.
What about bio-availability of that protein?
> Wikileaks does, however, keeps tons of information about its internal operations secret...

It shouldn't... as long as its action, as whistleblowers, shouldn't be prosecutable either.

ps: I do think that both Manning AND Snowden (as US citizens) should be pardoned, and charges on Assange (as a non-US citizen) dropped.
I think it’s for contact discovery. I agree that it would be better to have it not be tied to another system. However, sharing your new ID is a source of friction for messaging apps and everyone wants to grow their app as quickly as possible.
I predict within 5-10 years, any tech company with an activist union will have moved most of their operations to countries where workers don't have rights.

They managed to do this in the manufacturing sector. And a car factory or a steel plant is a lot harder to move than a mere office building filled with developers and sysadmins who all work remotely already.
I didnt even know they re-released it under new name.

I have rtx voice running all the time (starts totaly silently with pc) and totaly forget its there.
As I have headphones without mic my mic is positioned right between bottom rim of monitor and keyboard (mechanical) and this piece of magic filters keyboard sounds off like its not even there and leaves voice intact.

Absolutely adore that.

Somehow I fear that nvidia broadcast will ruin it. It is already getting bloater (hooks camera, background filters) and I fear it would ask for updates here and then. The quality I love about RTX Voice is that I dont notice it at all, apart from its tray icon.
You, like a lot of other people, confuse free speech with "but mom, the other kids won't let me play with them!". Actually the only threat to freedom is trying to imply that a company or any other association or institution ought to be compelled to host someone else's speech.

Being able to kick the idiots out and not compelling other people to amplify their nonsense is a basic mechanism of any society that wants to function.

Also the free exchange of ideas isn't a prerequisite for a just world, it's the consequence of a just system. You can "free exchange of ideas" yourself into a gulag if the population is dumb enough. Exchanging ideas is a process that can go as wrong as it can go right, it's a process, not a set of values.

What built the just institutions you like in the US were semi-aristocratic founding fathers, I went to school in a school system that was built in Prussia, colloquially called "a military with a country", and the civic code in France was written by Napoleon. People in Singapore are prosperous because Lee Kuan Yew had his wits together, not because they enjoy a lot of free exchange of ideas.

It's sane and capable elites building lasting institutions that afford you the luxury of free exchange of ideas, even if this offends the egalitarian myth that is popular in the US. Sorry to say it, but mom, pops and Donald Trump being able to post on Twitter doesn't built functioning states.
Never heard it called that. What I have heard is something along the lines of "confidential but unclassified" which seems more descriptive to me.
By regularly redeploying or re-imaging. Exploits can only live for a certain timescale + you can lock down nearly every entry point (no need for SSH access for instance).
Cheers for pointing out that.. Should have been 'are an important part of functional programming'
Is it me or is he doing the input and rendering in the wrong order?
After being zapped by one of these myself, I had to tone down my disapproval of them. It was uncomfortable but not particularly painful, similar to a 'handbuzzer' gag gift.

My bigger problem was that it was not very effective at stopping barking.
Several bad assumptions here.

If they're getting better offers elsewhere, its not market rate.

Whats to say other companies aren't doing cool stuff? All companies say this.
If it really is just a one-shot with one simple-ish filter, I agree. But I often find myself incrementally building shell-pipeline tangles that are sped up massively by being replaced with SQLite. Once your processing pipeline is making liberal use of the sort/grep/cut/tee/uniq/tac/awk/join/paste suite of tools, things get slow. The tangle of Unix tools effectively does repeated full-table scans without the benefit of indexes, and is especially bad if you have to re-sort the data at different stages of the pipeline, e.g. on different columns, or need to split and then re-join columns in different stages of the pipeline. In that kind of scenario a database (at least SQLite, haven't tried a more "heavyweight" database) ends up being a win even for stream-processing tasks. You pay for a load/index step up front, but you more than get it back if the pipeline is nontrivial.
I see masks as having two distinct purposes : 1. To protect me and my family members when we need to enter a "hot" area such as a virus-denier-owned business or other place with large numbers of people and poor ventilation. We use best available N95 type masks (KN95 for example are widely available now) for this purpose. 2. as a signal I can read from other people as to whether or not they take virus spread mitigation measures seriously. So if I see someone not wearing a mask in a store, I can reasonably assume that person is more likely to transmit the virus. Not because the mask they're not wearing is not effective, but because the lack of mask tells me that they probably mix with other people, frequent places with large numbers of other people, are friends with people who don't take quarantine seriously, and so on. So even if masks had zero effectiveness for virus transmission, they're still very useful to me in identifying people and places to avoid.
I wouldn't say they caught it "by accident". They caught it the way that most organizations detect a compromise: they saw some suspicious network traffic and they investigated. They just happen to have among the most sophisticated investigation capability in the world.
Who said it was?!
Just did it last week as the first assignment in my university level OS course (albeit a bit more complexity added)
The "many eyes" theory includes the phrase "all bugs are shallow", which to me certainly implies that they shouldn't lay there for 10+ years.

The only conclusion people should be drawing from the last 20 years of security being taken seriously is that writing secure software is hard, finding bugs is hard, and business model doesn't really matter.
I agree so much that I'd argue in a very general sense that PBS is also better content for adults... everyone ;)
LOL.

I have been a Sergeant, I have been an officer. I have worked for Colonels and served in combat. Real leaders are hard to find.

I can happily say, you can take your unsolicited offer and well you know what...

I'm lucky now, I work for myself. The whims of the market are my only customer and what cruel customer it is...
The video, song, logo. Everything so fun and cool, made me laugh. Really looks like the author went the extra mile.
Both of my kids watched YouTube kids on their iPad from around 2-4 years old. There is definitely some garbage on there (I'm looking at you surprise egg unboxing videos), but there is also a lot of content on there that I found pretty clever. Anyway - the point in our house was never to be educational, it was to give our kids (and us) 30 minutes to just chill out and relax. And it was extremely good in that capacity.

The worries about commercialism turned out to be unfounded in our case. Yes - there were a few times that they wanted a toy they saw on YouTube, but they soon realized after getting their hands on them that in reality most of that stuff is crap. They pretty quickly grew out of watching/coveting toys they saw there, and in fact, I have found that they seem to be far less interested in toys than I was at their age.

I also always got the feeling that a lot of content on PBS kids was more geared at parents than children. "Little Einsteins" for example isn't a bad show, but feels a little heavy handed to me in the degree to which it moralizes and pushes things like classical music appreciation on small children. Honestly, I really don't see a lot of value in teaching a three year old the theme to Beethoven's 9th symphony vs. Baby Shark. And it never held my kids' attention like YouTube kids could.

A bigger concern for me now is just the addictiveness of the iPad/iPhone in general. They both lost interest in YouTube Kids around 4 years old, but they haven't lost interest in those devices. Our older son in particular could spend a whole day clicking mindlessly around iOS if we didn't limit him. So could I, for that matter.
I don't quite get what you mean. If the cross-origin server (to your app) wants to be consumed then it will respond with the correct headers. And if the server is under your control then you can configure it so.
They still won't honor the warranty.
Fudge factor? What I meant to suggest is to just define that UTC is now equal to TAI, and forget about the offset (set leap seconds to zero, or drive slowly towards zero if required).
As annoying as that is I'm still comforted by the reminder of the (plausible) Blade Runner scene and the thought of how much I like that film - and it's never ending relevancy.
Wow. This level of anal spelunking for the privilege to work on speeding up excel macros and word auto-completion? No thanks.
It strikes me as absolutely insane that Apple doesn't have a way to verify that the submitter of an app is from the company that submitted the app before. This seems like a no-brainer. Like the OP, I would also go to Apple in this case and be absolutely furious if they didn't respond.

IANAL, but I would be pretty surprised if there wasn't some recourse towards Apple for this. If I bring counterfeit 'Tide' (a laundry detergent made by Proctor and Gamble) to my local shopping store and Proctor and Gamble points this out, I think the grocery store has to remove the product.
That seems to be an implementation flaw. USB-C provides 5V by default with no negotiation which should be enough to power the controller and allow it to negotiate a higher voltage.
> On the other hand it’s trivial for content streams to contractually bar venues from modifying the content and that would supersede the overall right to do so.

Given the number of bars or restaurants I (used to) go to using some employee's Spotify stream as their music provider, I think the problem is that enforcement by the providers is basically impossible.
Carson here, site developer. Thank you for the positive response so far, but also feel free to leave us constructive criticism. If you want to contribute to this effort, the GitHub is https://github.com/carsonbaker/takeyourtemp. We're working on it with frenetic energy.
The WHO usually isn't in the business of sponsoring trials. The development of a single master protocol takes time, especially for one as large as this, and pulling one together within just a few weeks is already quite incredible, given the many, many partners that have to be involved, and how carefully you have to design it to balance a bunch of different factors.
