You're making huge presumptions about a failure that is still in progress. You have no idea if that money actually disappeared or not or whether fraud was involved or not. You're claiming the unknown isn't normal, but you can't know that because you don't know what happened yet, no one does.

If fraud is involved, someone will go to jail and authorities will attempt to recover assets. This is perfectly normal in a functioning market.

You cannot claim that because crime occurs the market isn't functioning.
I've often wondered if there was some repair the Columbia crew could have done. Anything that the hole could have been stuffed with? What about pulling a tile off of a less critical section, shaping it, and putting it in the hole?
Just a thought: understandably, with a younger audience, I imagine that most of your users are not going to be conscious or care about conflicts of interest. I am curious though, did you and your fellow reviewers disclose your roles in your reviews?

I don't think that your case is particularly malicious or anything, but it makes me wonder how easily similar tactics could be used in larger websites or about more serious topics. Thinking along these lines, it feels very "real" how quickly things like payola came about in past media formats, and how what was old is new once again.
Where is this on mobile? I went to fast.com

Is it after the speed test is over?
Why should a math textbook contain anything even remotely related to race? Isn't that what social studies classes are for?

> Internationally revered Iranian filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami has created some of the most inventive and transcendent cinema of the past thirty years, and Close-up is his most radical, brilliant work. This fiction-documentary hybrid uses a sensational real-life event—the arrest of a young man on charges that he fraudulently impersonated the well-known filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf—as the basis for a stunning, multilayered investigation into movies, identity, artistic creation, and existence, in which the real people from the case play themselves. With its universal themes and fascinating narrative knots, Close-up has resonated with viewers around the world.

Anyone care to comment how hard it would have been for a third-party to reverse engineer the 10NES chip at the time rather then perform the 'easy' way and obtain the source code under questionable circumstances from the copyright office?
This is a good point. My mortgage and escrow on a decent house in a nice suburb and good school zone on the outskirts of a large city is $2300. Spending $2,500 on rent is insane.
It wont end, just be reserved for the elite, much like it is today. Few Average Joes are making that 400k total comp.
Folks, keep in mind that you're doing this to something containing a lithium battery. If it explodes, your hot case is going to get far hotter. Please be cautious.

A brief FAQ list to address the predictable replies:

Q: But it hasn't burned anyone!

Yet.

Q: It won't, obviously!

And yet, it might.

Q: Nonsense!

You're thermally overclocking a physical object that happens to contain enough charged lithium to kill a small household.

Q: I know what I'm doing!

Then you put a "heat warning" sticker on the top cover, right?

Q: Of course not, that would make it ugly. And anyways I don't have one.

So you're consciously choosing not to take appropriate safety precautions?

Q: They're not appropriate.

You don't know what you're doing.

Q: Safety precautions aren't that big of a deal, it's just a few degrees warmer!

Are you familiar with the phrase "served as a lesson to us all"?

Q: A comment on the Internet said that it's safe to use my bare legs as heatsinks.

"Served as a warning to others".

Q: But I know how to apply thermal paste properly!

All the better to injure yourself and your property with.

Q: I have the right to modify my own objects!

And, in return, you grant those objects the right to harm you if your modifications introduce drawbacks.

Q: That's impossible!

Nothing's impossible when it comes to people modifying things while thinking they know better.

Q: It's so low of a likelihood that I'm willing to take my chances.

That's your right, as long as the object isn't in the vicinity of other human beings at any point in its modified life.
>Ignoring Indian and Chinese theories today is just sticking your head in the sand and promoting some weird type of conservatism.

Well, Indian and Chinese theories you're never gonna use in 99% of the music you play in the US, so you might as well ignore it.

The same way Indians are not taught Bluegrass and the Chinese don't study ragas.

Indians and Chinese in India and China do study western music theory, but that's because it has become a global francize and thus they need it (e.g. to play a pop gig). They don't do it in order to merely be inclusive.

I'd reverse the charge, that only westerners (at least some modern ones) think of themselves as some engligtened all-inclusive superset of humanity, that they feel like they should be studying western + Indian + Chinese + whatever music theory, and not just the theories they need as working musicians (plus a la cart study if someone is interested in particular ethnic styles).

Chinese musicians don't feel any great urge to study Indian classical music, and Indian musicians don't particularly care/call for studing Chinese music...

Worse, if western musicians are made to study Indian/Chinese music, and start producing works in said formats, the end result will be the watering down of said musical traditions.

There is Indian and Chinese music, because it's tied to those peoples' history, tradition, artistic development, sentiments, and so on.

Without that, it's just "ethnic fusion" BS - which we shouldn't be encouraging more of...

If a westerner wants to learn that music, they shall go to a special Indian/Chinese music school (preferably in the respective countries), study it with reverance, understand it, live like the peoples who made it do, and so on, until they can actually feel it. Not have someone teach it to them at Berklee and then start producing works based on them....
^^^ Yeah, this. "Location based pay" just means "I'm giving you a paycut," which in turn just means "I don't think you have any leverage." Pure and simple.

So go find what the negotiation wonks call your BATNA and then see if it's better than the paycut. If it is, now we're cooking.
I'd argue the opposite. The price of living rose to meet the means of the people who lived there. People in tech are highly paid because it is a workers' market where talent and special education and skills are generally required. If the industry could hire people who could do the same job remote at $50k per year this trend would have begun decades ago.
In my experience with VS that stuff mostly came from Resharper, a plugin.
I can understand the effort and I can support it if the main idea is to prevent people from starving. But I cannot understand people reacting whole foods as it is invented couple of years ago. My 4 years old kid don't consume food other than PediaSure[1] for two years. He really did well until this time and blood, urine test suggest everything is normal. So food replacement is not miracle and works under some circumstances.

This is incredibly subjective, and I would argue altogether untrue, although that is also subjective.
Come now. It's a matter of physics that you can't make stuff from nothing, and you can't do things without energy.

That's not to say that body fat is strictly dependent on caloric intake, but to certain extremes, there's no way around that fact.

Trueskill is also under patent. Which is considerably more off putting than its rigor.
Technically you're not "working" as you are not employed. I'm not even sure theres a visa for it, maybe you just take a very long "vacation" and leave/return before your time is up.
Space colonization. It's the big item on the advanced civilization checklist that we haven't even got a good start on yet. If you want more information, use your AI guided self-driving spaceships to wardrive around and slurp it all up.
IIRC the current structure is a response to the IRS audit. Originally, Google paid MoFo directly. Now Google pays MoCo, presumably MoCo pays taxes, and any surplus money can go to MoFo to be used tax-free.
The website ( http://www.green500.org ) hasn't been updated yet, but this seems to be an accurate top 10 from the BoF session at SC. Looks like GPU-powered machines are in #2, #3, #9, #10, #11, and #12.

A corollary I'd like to see to the Green500 list is the Cheap500 list (MFLOPS/Dollar, either purchase price or TCO including power and cooling); we're not likely to ever see that data, but it seems incredibly relevant to someone looking at the list trying to figure out how to build their machine.
An original Audi Quattro is very hard to find in th US and IMO very collectible.
The funny thing is that XMPP was created when XML was the current hotness.

SMTP survived despite changing fads. If we're ever going to standardize IM (or anything), we have to accept that protocols may use older technology. Someday JSON will be old too. Let's not make these mistakes again.
RES uses infinite scrolling of some sort, yes.
So this works in theory until there is a really bad bug in some part of the code base and there is no one who knows how to fix it. Or it breaks some kind of migration plan. Or it is embedded somewhere on some architecture that slows down an important projects development. or makes an application incompatible with a future OS

If they’re not going to keep a team dedicated to keeping it alive, then you get into a situation where an emergency fix needs to be deployed or it needs to be abruptly cancelled

It’s possible this already happened once or twice which is why they had to sunset it
Information asymmetry exists as a continuum and less as definitive states. Say, what if the avg person could boot up an NSA terminal to be able to search (and everyone know that they are logged in and searching) the database? That, to me, would seem to be on the other side of the spectrum than it is now, and I highly doubt that would be 100% inconsequential for the current elite. Would something like this possibly enable a future elite, possibly (as all systems seem be good at doing eventually), but at least it will be a change of the status quo where the few can leverage an information advantage against the masses.

And if the startup I've founded with a friend and been working on for two years is any proof of concept of something like that working (yes we are revenue generating as of a month ago, and growing with plenty of things in the pipeline), I beg to differ. We have managed to get people who never would have heard of/or read Hacker News to care (because we made it relevant to their everyday lives in ways they can see the manifestation of their collective behaviors these past decades) about mass surveillance/data collection and acknowledge that as a society if we have collectively let things get to this point, to think that a roll back of the technical capabilities of governments/corporations/other organizations through political pandering will placate, is naive at best. Here's a post I made before the Snowden leaks[0]. I think about these things everyday, and work on ways to show that the emperor of mass surveillance is naked for everyone to see if they remove their hands from their eyes and plugs from their ears because perhaps at the end of the day, we will only see ourselves in front of the mirror reflecting upon our individual and collective actions we make everyday.

My current car is a '08 euro Civic (FN2), your typical hot hatch. Or maybe not! Fold the back seats down and the floor is flat, long/large enough to drop a camping mat or two and fall asleep while looking at the stars up through the rear window.

The design was very divisive when it rolled out but I find it still looks awesome ten years down the road.
I wouldn't be surprised if the starting point for this vulnerability wasn't ES, but Docker. Docker by default modifies iptables and if you hack together a system that uses both software running directly on the host and in containers, it's going to expose the forwarded containers to the Internet - which you might not be expecting, since a bind to localhost would be enough to expose a service. It's always a good idea to have a separate firewall running outside of the your system - this is the one Docker can't fool.
> Both parties could have handled this better.

Bullshit. Kelly was a complete a-hole and deserves everything she gets. There were 100 different ways to handle this without insults.

I don't even treat telemarketers this rudely.
Facebook made the "Brilliant" move to remove the chat functionality from their app. So I am forced to use the mobile site of facebook ...
Yeah, it's important to have it available if it's needed and it's important to conduct at least some sort of trial. Because the drug, combined with azithromycin is so fast acting, we should see the first results in a few days. Worst thing that can happen is it doesn't work. Best thing that can happen is we can save 1.8 trillion dollars and restart the economy. Under these circumstances one would be an idiot not to give it a try.

Coughing your lungs out but feel like CNN is not lying to you? Easy! Refuse the drug. Nobody can force you to take it.
Is there something like Filtered option for LibreOffice?
Apparently doubling the pressure allows two or maybe more patients to be hooked to the same ventilator with a kind of T-junction. In this situation you would only need an extra mask.
It's broken on low-resolution screens.
The suggestion on the table is to give this drug to extremely ill patients who suffer from a new viral disease on the basis of anecdotal evidence and without clinical trials. The suggestion was to massively prescribe it.

What health authorities want to do is to allow physicians to use the drug if the patient agrees, but only in a controlled setting in which data is collected and there is a control group. So at least afterwards we could draw conclusions about whether it killed more people or helped saving people. Does that not make sense to you?
A south african domain, but a blogger from seattle...

It might have changed by now, but at least a few years ago 3.5" floppies were still used to exchange crucial information in the health sector here in Norway.
GA102 is 1:1 FP16/FP32 rate, but with a ton of FP32 (30 Tflops for the RTX 3080).
The history of RAD is a history of media read speeds - playing back full-motion video from a CD on a PS2 with its near-zero available CPU resources was a superhuman effort.

So low-overhead (fast) decompression is essential for AAA titles. But recently I guess developers think disks are fast enough now, because PC games have been using more uncompressed assets to free up CPU time, massively bloating install size. Current-gen consoles also all have NVMe SSDs.

Given this trend, RAD's heyday was definitely in the days before consoles had NVMe disks (Bink in particular let games punch far above their weight) so this might be a nice forever-home.

Blame Intel for not making faster CPUs, and consumers for tolerating massive install sizes, i guess.

The other angle to this story is that the PS5 has a hardware decode unit for RAD Kraken. To get the best use out of the PS5 hardware, it's essential that the encoder is still made available. This is a huge competitive moat. (PCs probably won't get a comparable decompression accelerator card and such a card wouldn't get enough market penetration anyway.)

> I've had that response several times, but XMPP is not a messaging app. It's like asking for an email client and being told "Use the internet", or "Use TCP".

This on so many levels. Electric cars are literally an extension or life lease for our existing poorly structured society and behaviour; an excuse to carry on as before. We need to change how we operate as a species.

Edit: and there’s the symptom. People don’t want their cheese being moved.
> when your data limits are reached you can still use WhatsApp for the rest of the month, but not i.e. Signal or Telegram. That makes is rather hard to convince people to switch.

Is it common for people to reach their limits? I understand it may happen by accident when you turn off wifi then forget to re-enable, but normally one takes care of their data quota or their plans and usage is such that they never or rarely use it completely, right?

I imagine one also has the option in both prepaid and postpaid plans to get more data for the rest of the month if it ever happens that they need more. It'd just be more expensive since it's out of package.
I've been using OpenBoard for over a year and I didn't know this!
You need both. I've worked at places that were all subject-matter and no business expertise. Companies like that fail.
So conspiracies do exist.
The same thing applies to rows and columns. We don't use any simple strings for our row or column indexes. They are serialized objects.

Earlier versions of the API actually did have String based versions, and were changed to just byte arrays to reduce clutter.
Am I supposed to know who the people in those pictures are?
Why not just use Workflowy.com ? (keyboard centric, nested TODO lists)

I have discovered it two weeks ago and it has already a dedicated tab in my browser. As simple as your solution, but with more value, I believe.
That makes sense for the values, but the names of rows and columns are also passed as bytes. Wouldn't a convenience function that accepts strings, performs the Bytes.toBytes() conversion and calls the original method reduce code clutter?
However to note: jQuery makes dom manipulation fairly easy. It is in no way a replacement to javascript, only the browser's dom lib calls. You just wind up not writing a bunch of utility functions to handle the different ways to get at the same information in the browser. Plus I like the syntax.

Right, browser based JavaScript is kind of a special cases, the reality is that it can be a frustrating experience to even learn JavaScript without the aid of something like jQuery to smooth out the DOM.

My personal recommendation would be either learn JavaScript outside of the browser, chose only one browser to learn it in, or get "the Good Parts" as recommended, but start with jQuery and use "the Good Parts" to make sure you are doing it right while using jQuery.

The fact of the matter is, if you are doing browser work, which most doing JavaScript are, you are going to use a toolkit like jQuery in almost every project. So to me, it becomes almost part of learning the language. JavaScript toolkit are a little different from frameworks on the server side. They are more like language enhancers than a frameworks. So they are in kind of a "chicken and the egg" problem when it comes to making recommendations on which to start with.
None that I know of but the books I listed will teach you the JavaScript language itself which would carry over to SSJS.
Too much freedom, and the beat becomes too irregular and therefore less appealing. Simplicity is beauty, as usual.
Other than it not being tinfoil after the past 2-15 years of evidence that citizens are targeted, it's not unreasonable to assume that the public is "only" 10-20 years behind the NSA when it comes to technology. So unless you have lifecycle management on all your encrypted files, and plan on regular password rotation on everything on your hard drive that you keep encrypted, perhaps it's not unreasonable to use something secure and memorable NOW.
In much of the developed world the fertility (children per woman) is barely the (slightly over) 2.0 required to sustain the population. Countries where, say, 1.0 children are born per woman is having a rapidly shrinking population, but more seriously a rapidly aging population where a smaller number of working people supports a larger and larger number of elderly.

If a country wanted to have a shrinking population, it would likely want a fertility rate of just below 2. Japan has 1.41 (!) and barely any immigration.

The solution to global population issues is making sure that poor countries with high fertility rate (4-7) are brought down to 2-2.5, something which is already happening very quickly. See e.g. Hans Rosling's famous talks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeXJnOE-1gw

The solution to the low fertility rate is likely hard to change short term (cultural), but comparing countries in europe for example, it seems likely that making children reforms such as subsidized day-care, free higher education etc. would help.
I like this NTYP misses a literally perfect work problem (you can solve for the two different sales quantities from the numbers quoted in the article). But this is pretty compatible with the NYT 2012 position that you don't need algebra. Another link: https://twitter.com/ddmeyer/status/549965027948507136/photo/...
True, but a fertility rate of 1.41 isn't really a gradual decline.
You will have to take into account the times when these men lived and what was known back then vs what is known today and to acknowledge that you live today.

I'm happy that you're doing what you're doing but ultimately religion is very un-scientific, which is one of the root causes why religious people tend to view science as atheistic. Those are flip sides of the same coin.

It's very well possible to do good science whilst being religious. At the same time it is very well possible to do good science whilst being an atheist. Science as an institution does not care where the incremental steps towards the truth comes from, as long as those steps are reproducible.

Assigning correlation between religion and the ability to do science seems a bit strange, as if if Maxwell would have been an atheist he would not have been able to make the discoveries that he did. I don't buy that, but maybe someone could do a double-blind test by staffing labs in the same disciplines with devout Christians (Catholics, Protestants, Church-of-England or whatever denominations you can find enough scientists from) and similar labs with just atheists. Then maybe we could draw the kind of conclusion the article wishes for us to make.

Until then I'm fine with letting people believe whatever they want and taking the fruits of their progress whatever their belief was when they did their work.
Dont know why you have been downvoted, because this is a kind of "pascal rebirth - the mission".

Of course it borrow some things from Python.. but i dont know why this has to be bad. When i was a kid pascal was a thing.. and my first hello worlds were programmed in it (away from C), then in my teens, Delphi was a thing, relearn to program in it, and it kept me away from Visual Basic (ohh-hay)

Pascal/Delphi was so fun to program with (thanks Hejlsberg!), but somehow the tech world turned into this C syntax dominated world, because of the popularity of the Unix..

And i must say, playing a little bit with Nim, it make me feel that again.. the joy of programming..

And i've always feel Python kind of nasty, i confess, not very easy to read the code.. like a messy code comming from a five year old.. but Nim doesnt have that feel.. it feels like pascal in the old days.. pretty serious but also fun and pragmatic!
