Ah, very interesting possibilities! I'm still worried about taking an ultra productive startup like EngineYard and placing it in the "machinery" of a big corporate entity like VMWare. But maybe it would allow some really cool teams to work together closely to build the ultimate ruby deployment platform.
Too bad to hear that doesn't have that much activity.

You live in Mosman? I just started renting a place in Cremorne (border of Neutral Bay), and work in North Sydney. Seems like a cool place. Will check out the meetup, thanks.
In South Africa, ABSA (Barclays owned), First National Bank and Nedbank use this.

You get a text when logging on, on creating a new beneficiary, and again on paying a new beneficiary for the first time.

Verifications are randomized strings of 8 characters.

ABSA's SMS verification system is flawed though. Their internal network allows _anyone_ on site to change a client's telephone number, which allows employees to effectively steal, whilst keeping their security flag flying.
Also: I would keep going with the tutorial. It's always good to have the experience of transitioning between versions, and you probably won't appreciate Rails 3 as much if you haven't used 2.X! :-p

A year ago I took the course on calculus and group theory. I worked on the course 15 to 20 hours per week for three months and received a good grade.

The course was worth the effort. It enhanced my engineer identity and brought me self-respect. Now that I've passed the course, I'm much more confident about my self; I feel that I can solve difficult problems if I want to. I know that I can concentrate.

In short, putting your self through advanced mathematics is a great way to improve your capability of facing and handling difficult issues.
This could be fixed if pinning the interpreter's video feed on your screen gave it priority.
I wasn't commenting on the strength of RSA-1024, per se, but on the assumed age of that key. OpenSSH's ssh-keygen hasn't defaulted to 1024 bit RSA keys since before version 4.2, in 2005. (I had to look it up: https://www.openssh.com/releasenotes.html)

You can still generate a 1024 bit RSA key, but someone would have to go out of their way to do so, and I can't imagine why they would have done that in the past .. decade?
> I no longer need to use Terraform to scale out a service.

Are you still using Terraform to specify your deployments? From experience, you need something there to manage all your yamls: deployments, configmaps, secrets. Especially if you have multiple environments.
I would like to see the outcome of this policy applied just down the road in Oakland.
I'm unexperienced reading poetry, but I'm not sure I would treat it any differently.

Poetry to me seems like it requires a lot of context to really understand. Who is the author and what kind of life have they lived? Who are their contemporaries and what cultural context are they responding to? etc.

So maybe I'd do an initial "blind" read and take a quick note about my reaction. Then, I'd do some research about the author and try to figure out why they might have written that piece, followed by a second reading.
One datapoint: We run our production HFT machines with migrations=off. Latency at the microsecond level is highly critical, and these machines don't have any public facing interface.

This is obviously a niche case. But IMO, I can see similar calculus for other more mainstream use cases. I wouldn't turn migrations=off on a public facing web server. But if you have a cluster that does ETL data processing, it's probably CPU-bound and has very little externally exposed surface area. Arguably, even backend SQL servers can benefit, assuming the set of clients that directly access the dbase are tightly controlled and audited.
this is awesome. is this real-time?
The 43-bits; is that a limitation on physical or virtual addresses?

Also, don't forget that DRAM isn't the only consumer of physical address space.
I agree that people should learn the value of modeling and know how to do it.

But in order to model, people will need tools. Natural language, even when very carefully phrased, is insufficiently clear or precise. And predicate logic isn't sufficiently numerical to support quantitation, which should be central to most models.

Some kind of formal notation is required, both to specify and as well as exercise the model -- vary its parameters and evaluate results.

I see no alternative to using some sort of programming language here. Personally I'd prefer it be a lot simpler and purposeful than Python. (Perhaps Z or UML?) But there's a lot of value in being able to manipulate everyday data as programmers do, now that data is omnipresent in everyone's personal and professional lives.

Possessing basic skills with which to fix your car or repair a shirt has sufficient value that I can't see why anyone might prefer not to know how to program. It's just a matter if matching the right cognitive impedence in choosing the tool.
Hi zmitri: Do you have any more details on how Stripe and banks signal recurring charges. What you're describing sounds interesting, but with our app we see decent churn from the use of debit visa/mastercards
I think you need to see a psychologist before making a decision, and think back why you made the decision to not pay him 300$ instead agreed on 5%,and he also took the risks
Well? Was he right?

The suspense is terrible, I hope it lasts.
I agree, but I think "budget" is the wrong concept.

It should've been "simple smartphone".

There is not really a market for making another hi-tech whiz-bang phone for nerds, that market is sewed up.

They need the phone version of their kindle. A one-week battery life. A device deceptively simple...something that soccer-moms would use while waiting for Timmy's soccer practice to finish.

Interestingly, I bet this is the tact Microsoft takes with their new Nokia announcements
California already has a massive system of rain water capture and extra-large cisterns we call reservoirs. The smaller the cistern the more expensive per gallon it is.
That's simply an overexaggeration. I wouldn't even say that reddit likes to go against the mainstream. Liberalism, pro-gay marriage, pro-pot. These things don't fit with the current law, but they certainly are not minority views in the broader public.

Even then, go read /r/trees, it's full of people who are very sensible and will contradict other "Ents" if they're being stupid about their use of cannabis. They chastise other Democrats for having extreme views.

It's cheap to sit on the sidelines and classify reddit. If you're only reading the headlines and not participating in the discussion then you're missing the point. Similarly, if you're only subscribed to the default subreddits, you're missing the truly good stuff.

It's unbelievable how much GOOD content appears in the android, ubuntu, electronic music subreddits that people never see because they dismiss it they way you are.
I also have a lot of respect for people who are willing to teach. But I don't respect teachers that speak of these concepts like they're magic that no mere mortal can understand. This is stuff that everyone can know -- and should know -- and needs to be treated like learning arithmetic, not tensor calculus.
This is nothing new. It has always been that way. The only thing is there hasn’t ever been a person/president that is so bad at being human that companies wanted to distance themselves from him. That is also because these companies are not media companies. Even now I am sure if he speaks the traditional media companies will carry his message.
The first study is only studying the effect of the N501Y mutation as found in several emergent strains, not the E484K mutation.
Expropriation and war-production act type solutions were always sufficient incentives/threats.

Once again, case law/legal theory just hasn't caught up yet.

It'd be interesting to see if today, a TV station says "We're disabling the emergency broadcast system to pre-empt our (either rational or irrational) fear of misuse."

How long till fcc/govt mechanisms have the broadcast antenna turned off? Or the station seized, or whatever the solution is.

Is the answer the same if, hypothetically, a foreign "influenced" station does the same thing as a war breaks out?

Or, what if a station "ghosts" the system. Just turns it off without announcement?

Apply the same questions to everything else you listed above.

I presume (and hope) the pentagon knows these answers.
That's a far cry from a temper tantrum of repeated lies about nonexistent fraud, and a "stolen" election for the sole, self-aggrandizing purpose of inciting rowdy, racist rednecks to literally break into—and tromp literal shit through—our hallowed house of power, endangering our lawmakers trying to do their jobs.
I'm willing to change my opinion as soon as someone provides me some evidence that this was actually a coup, and not a riot that's being inflated to order to justify sweeping authoritarianism.
I am the admin of both a Mastodon Instance(https://zee.li), and a Peertube Instance(https://tube.zee.li), both of which are ActivityPub based federated instances.

While individual nodes are not decentralized the federated network as a whole is. It is ultimately up to you to choose a well-federated, fast, and reliable instance that meets your criteria for information freedom and user protections. You can find an uncurated list here(https://instances.social/list) or a curated list of instances committed to "active moderation against racism, sexism and transphobia." here(https://joinmastodon.org/communities).

My instance while valuing user protection, errs on the side of information freedom as a valuable principle to protect as a whole. Both Mastodon and Peertube include pretty effective and comprehensive moderation tools to ensure you never see what you do not want to see, but that decision is not made for you on my instances.

The content policy below applies to both instances-
Moderation will be minimal and limited to abusive or illegal content, ultimately we want to foster an inclusive environment without draconian, biased, puritan, or emotional moderation. Moderation is taken care of by server host & volunteers. NSFW content is allowed but must be blurred by default. Gore/Porn/Nudity = NSFW. Any content that abides by Illinois, New York City, New York State, and U.S. Law is allowed.

Server Specs:
i7-9700k
512GB NVMe SSD
64GB DDR4
1Gbps

Backend Infrastructure-
Hosted in NYC, Wasabi S3 storage backend, with BunnyCDN as CDN provider for both instances.

Who we are-
This instance is ran voluntarily. I have been a server administrator for going on 10 years now starting with a passion for gaming private servers and evolving into running a business that offers web/service hosting for various clients & personal projects. These instances will not disappear overnight given my track record with various volunteer services(Tor Non-Exit Relay, Free VPN for my Mumble, Mumble, Various websites for musician/artist friends, that I have and still host).

Why we created this instance-
Freedom of speech & information is paramount in a free society. While not legally obligated, centralized platforms have increasingly infringed on societal and moral obligations to appease advertisers & coddle the fragile.

How long we plan to maintain this instance-
Indefinitely

How we will pay for this instance-
Donations, Personal Funds.

More instances are in the works and I plan on hosting more instances for the community and web at large that follow the same principles, Gitlab, Pixelfed(ActivityPub), and Funkwhale(ActivityPub) instances immediately come to mind.
I think having massive, mainstream social media sites acting as onboarding for lunacy is a major contributing factor. Competitors trying to capitalize on the fringes wouldn't have a viable market to capture if Facebook et al wouldn't have created it in the first place.

What amazes me the most is the fact that Google decided to brand this as a product of it's own. Nothing on the website seems to indicate this is a Google product.

This seems to be quite a step utilizing the aquisition of Like.com (and Riya with it). Very interested in seeing how this develops and why Google is taking this approach.

I don't think that Boutiques.com was a departure from what Google is already good at. Boutiques.com contributes to their core product (search).

On the surface, it looks like Google has defined a long list of fashion ecommerce sites to search. Then, they pepper in some Google Images functionality along with a base template designed to encourage engagement.

This sounds a lot a specialized, properly linked version of Google Images more than innovation.

I think that Google should be investing more in startups if they want to increase innovation. Creating products that contribute to their core product is exactly what I'd do if I was the CEO of Google.... which based on my bank balance, I'm not :)

I don't think it's ever a good idea to make a headline more sensational. We should wait for a response from Microsoft before declaring them liars/cheaters. It's entirely possible that Microsoft has a valid explanation.

Personally - on at least two occasions, I've been accused of writing code that was specifically written to cause grief/problems with another person, only to have to explain that it was a bug and that their personal test-case isn't the only place where it fails.

* And even if the author did directly accuse MS of cheating, that doesn't mean we can't be more correct and rewrite it to be neutral.
Please share your results when you do!

A future revision of this was going to have Intents, so each empire basically did what you mentioned.

If it was going to be a game, the player would set the intent, or proportion of different intents, for their empire (eg colonize, trade), and not be able to micromanage specific plays.

Hostile or otherwise encounters with other empires would affect rules of engagement for future encounters.

Soon enough everything would get complex, messy and unpredictable and much more interesting to watch!
I think that moottothemax is implying more that the crime is going elsewhere, perhaps there has been an increase in homes being burgled for example. The article doesn't cover that, the desperate/criminal are still desperate/criminals. Maybe there was an increase in cars getting broken into?

critique?
Finding your sense of purpose in your work is bad, IMO, unless you own the company or have a similar position. I don't want my self-worth to be tied to an employer or market that can get rid of me any time. It's just a job. At best, I work in places that aren't morally against my values.

Many big names are so it seems. Here's Minsky and a piano https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnOcjCLTjGc . Feynman was also said to enjoy percussion (even though what I saw wasn't paying a great enough tribute to his understanding of physics ;)
I've seen some of these things, at least second hand.

I can indeed think of another one.

0x angels (and advisors, etc.) constantly throw new ideas at the founders and team without first doing at least a little bit of thought and research. Since they're investors, many (esp. less experienced) founders feel almost obligated to listen to this advice, resulting in a lot of wasted time and SQUIRREL!

"Yeah, I know you're getting early traction with your remote cloud monitoring app, but what if you could really remove nose hairs from a yak in only one step? I know people who would pay BIG for that!"

SQUIRREL!
>Here in Brazil WhatsApp is basically ubiquitous since its cheaper to send IM messages than to send SMS.

From this I conclude that OP has fallen for the bizarre nonsense argument I've heard in Brazil a lot of times when WhatsApp was gaining traction: "You must use it! It's free SMS!"

What? No, it is not "free SMS", it is internet messaging. Internet messaging has existed since... since there was internet. Yeah, it is "free" as long as you have unlimited internet, but if that qualifies for "free SMS" email was free SMS much before WhatsApp.

I don't think you understood what I am complaining about. I am complaining exactly about chrome only and usage of non-standard api.

As for storage, the web client is requesting non-standard file system permission exactly to store things. I am saying they should use a standard API such as IndexedDB for that kind of thing.

I do understand a thing or two about IM having worked on more than a client before. There is no need whatsoever for the hacks they did...

As for surveillance, thats another can of worms that is not protected by what they are doing. Traffic is intercepted at other vulnerable spots such as the carrier itself or ISP.
Why do you think Breyer and the other assenting justices wouldn't be able to come to this kind of decision without a clerk taking the lead?

Maybe Netflix could spin off one of its studios into a $999M business, of which Netflix conveniently owns a 51% stake in.
> The fact that there is not a third choice is maddening.

Actually, there is: https://puri.sm/products/librem-5. It's expensive though, since it does not benefit from economies of scale and targeted ads.
Lazy loading images can be an issue when your internet connectivity is slow or erratic. You might find yourself waiting for the image to load and then seeing it fail.

Either way, good alt-text for images is a must.

Then those users probably shouldn't be using something with servers in the US that can be accessed with a court order. They should backup to an offsite store they have full control over.
Skipping wifi 6 seems like a smart move, with 6E on the horizon. It includes all the things that should have been part of the standard in the first place, so why get your hardware certified for 6, if you have to get it recertified for 6E anyway shortly after?

6 doesn't add very much over 5 in real world setups, very few devices even support 802.11ax yet, and the bleeding edge has never been Mikrotik's target segment.

6E gear is not really available anywhere yet, so it's really only an issue for people who just have to have the latest gear at all times. For the majority of people, 802.11ac/wifi 5 is what their hardware supports, so that's what they need.
All of Canada is in a bubble, not just Vancouver. Thus it's not the Chinese. Things will burst here too, for Canada is not different and is not immune to the simple mathematics of economics.
Ah! Very perceptive. But that's not a confirmed outing. And I've done that in other forums to other people making weirdly passionate defenses of someone. Sometimes that's just a mocking.

The first whiff I get of an outing is cortex's msg in the forum to Scott Adams that he has a message waiting. At that point, it seems cortex has snooped without what I see any real reason/need to do so.
As I said in my comment, this is never going to fly for any company past a certain size. There is just too much confidential and legally sensitive stuff going through your email on a daily basis. Especially if you want to go public at some point (or even be acquired).
I agree with this, with one very important exception.

Go to work and negotiate a new contract which does not give them total ownership of your time and thoughts.
> The truth is that the events at the capitol were not a coup. This is deliberate propagandist language.

You say so only because it failed. If the tunnels didn't exist? If the mob had been faster or better armed? How would it have ended? Would Pence and Pelosi still be hostages?

(Edit: not worth continuing. But I bet anything if I kept going you'd eventually pull out a thesaurus and zing me with BUT it's REALLY an "autogolpe!")
It looks like an implementation of TSMC's process and similar chips will be available to everyone soon enough.
stop. so naive. trump has all kinds of media to use. in this case he was an irresponsible user and he was cut off, as happens all day long. just stop with the bloviation.
Procedure for voting fraud is to punish the guilty (harshly; it's a federal crime) and correct the exploit. It's never been to toss legitimate votes for suspicion of illegitimacy. If anything, the system is biased heavily to enfranchise voters at the boundary of legitimacy, because claims of illegitimacy were historically used to keep undesirable classes of people from exercising their rights.
> One could argue tech companies have a monopoly problem but you’re just saying a private company should allow anyone to say anything on their platform and throwing a ridiculous slippery slope out in front of it.

It is not as simple as you make it out to be. The real slipperly slope is unlimited powers that Big Tech currently enjoys. But yeah you and everyone else will realise in days to come as to why this argument of yours was wrong to begin with. You haven't thought it through. You just want a short-term problem resolved immediately: throw Trump out of office asap, shutdown conspiracy theory sites and stifle any expression for the right wing. You haven't thought of the long term consequences a.k.a Second Order Effects.
No, a strict concurrency model means things are more likely to be consistently sequenced; that is, you'll encounter less actual concurrency artifacts. If this model is made more lax, you might discover that you had UB which the previous model was not exploiting.
Here, it's not really the harmful virus doing good, but some bit of immunological magic that it put into motion. Viruses just as often cause lasting immunological and other harm. It'd be best to figure out what this response is, so we could put it in a drug.

Indeed, another virus -- Epstein-Barr-- caused the lymphoma in the first place.
So, from the article:

* “U.S. Capitol security needs a total overhaul. The physical breaching and desecration of our temple of democracy must never happen again,” Senator Brian Schatz, a Democrat from Hawaii, said on Twitter. The thing is, he is right, but physical security improvements alone will not protect the Capitol from another insurrection.*

So, how did the author make the leap that Senator Schatz meant physical security improvements?

I think alot of Senators are thinking more along the lines of this article:

https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-attempted-coup-federal...

How do they ensure law enforcement are not complicit in the coup?
Any earthly law can apply in space only to the extent that people in space can be convinced to comply.

If astronauts don't want to comply, what are we gonna do? Fire a space missile?
