Yes, I didn't mean to imply that you needed to explicitly eval with macros. Rather that the nature of macros themselves is saying, eval this bit at compile time and that bit at run time. You are implicitly and safely doing what most languages would need an explicit eval call to do.

Yev from Backblaze here ->

For us the drives are constantly spinning, we don't power them down. One of the reasons is we never know when a customer will want a restore, so we have the data available 24/7. That said with our Vaults (https://www.backblaze.com/blog/vault-cloud-storage-architect...) it's theoretically possible to power down entire cabinets and still have the data available, but we don't currently see a need to do that.
This is a make-work trap for conscientious people.

If it's more efficient for your business/project to change your URIs when going through a website design, go ahead (with the knowledge that you'll lose some traffic, etc.)

Seriously, there's no reason to feel guilty over this. It's not your fault, it's the fault of a system that built two UIs into every website (the website's HTML and the URL bar -- the second of which is supposed to be useful for browsing and navigation just like the first).

If W3C actually cared about links continuing to work, they would fix it at the technical level by promoting content-addressable links instead of trying to fix it at the social level (which will never work anyway, the diligent people that care about these things will always be just a drop in the bucket).

Ah, I thought you were talking about ASICs. Are those FPGAs big enough to support RISC-V?

That describes me as well. I figure Backblaze is a cheap extra pair of suspenders which is both DR and gives me an additional backup made in an independent way. I have pulled older versions of files off Backblaze a couple times when I've needed to but, now, Time Machine pretty much takes care of that.

I also keep a periodic backup in my office as well as various less systematic backups in various ways. I'd recommend anyone keep at least a couple of backups made with different methods. You never feel more exposed than when you need to use a backup and realize you only have one copy of all your data. Hope nothing else fails or you do something boneheaded with the restore.
Releasing F# Language Documentation as Open-Source
> the whole thing transfers to a trust, 'Portfolio Financial Servicing Company (“PFSC”)'[3] to continue collecting from borrowers and paying lenders.

The "paying lenders" part is partially correct. Only the Lenders that are part of LC Trust I, Lending Club Advisors (LCA), and one another entity (name escapes me at the moment) will get paid as these entities are Bankruptcy Remote Vehicle (BRV). As I mentioned in another comment, the Retail Lenders don't have any BRV protection so they will be considered unsecured creditor of Lending Club.

As debt is senior to equity, debt holders will get paid before equity holders. The unsecured creditor is subordinate to any senior debt holder, the retail lenders will be last one to be paid before equity holders. Source: Read the SEC Filings - prospectus and 10-K.

Also from your PFSC link:

"If the underlying loans are determined to be part of Lending Club’s bankruptcy estate, PFSC may not be able to make payments on the Notes."

If you look at the history of statistics, you'll find plenty of practically motivated ad-hoc problem solving like "hmm, how do we get R^n to map onto [0,1]" Log odds were used long before logistic regression and GLMs came along, and it certainly doesn't sound backwards to me to try and explain how people came to use a technique that initially looks very arbitrary (why not model probabilities directly?)

I can only answer by parable. Start from the point of view of a group of carpenters asking "is cardboard strong enough to build houses from" and you may a consensus until someone chimes in to say "but a lot of people have made a lot of money selling cardboard houses that survived just long to let them gather investors and money for building real houses." Sure, that may well be true but it's really going to change the view of carpenters.

I'm surprised with all the negative comments focusing on the age limit. Xavier Niel committed millions to launch the school in Paris and it was an immense success which already benefits to the whole ecosystem.
What is not said in the video is the type of candidates they are looking for.
In France, as education is free, traditional "excellent" high school student don't apply to 42 and prefer to secure a place in the notorious engineering schools. 42 is rather focused on giving a second chance to bright people that didn't fit into the traditional system. The test to get qualified for the 4weeks session is only about fit/culture questions: no maths, no logic, no programming. No skills required, everyone has the same chance.
Although the target in the US might be different as tuition fees are a real problem there. Curious to see what type of students will go there.
They obviously didn't evolve there independently from other humans. They and the other tribes have common ancestry, and a common root language. I doubt anyone knows about inter-tribal contact through those 60,000 years that could have kept the languages from diverging too much.

And a number of people I've known have stopped working long before a billion dollars was in their portfolio. The consensus these days seems to be $6 million. That much being managed by a decent finance person would give you an income equivalent to being paid $200K/year[1] and you can can vacation somewhere for a couple of weeks a year and spend $6 - $10K on your vacations.

[1] it gets tricky since when you're being "paid 200K/year" you probably pay 40% in income taxes and disability and you get health care paid for so you actually take home less than that.

The "that" most certainly should not be in the sentence about dishes—and by most certainly, I most certainly mean subjectively most certainly because it's just a damn awful sentence. You've given a great example of why skipping an unnecessary "that" is as important as not omitting "that" where necessary.

While the article's mistake is a result of omitting a necessary "that", this example about dishes is a case of inserting one that is ugly, unnecessary, and actually ruins the sentence flow.

It's really not a terrible indicator for health despite this argument getting trotted out every time the subject of BMI comes up on the internet. Obviously, as you pointed out, there's individuals for whom BMI is inaccurate but they represent a very small portion of the whole population. At a population level, it tracks very nicely with health outcomes.

If you're a powerlifter or a sprinter, don't change your habits just because your BMI is high. On the flip side, if you sit behind a desk all day, don't blame a high BMI on the metric being inaccurate.

That may help explain how your drive's firmware got corrupted.
The idea of it being theirs implies that it (the information) wasn't mine to begin with. If it was, and I had some expectation of privacy, then AT&T may be in the wrong collecting it.

Or take another path to VOIP - when your call passes AT&T's servers, if they log the bits, are they then AT&T's?

Basically, if information passed to and logged by AT&T is their data, then it applies to everything passing AT&T's servers, and call content would not require a warrant either. In reverse, if there is an expectation of privacy of call data, there can/may/should be an expectation of privacy in metadata as well.

Ah, I knew I had forgotten something. I'm specifically looking at "brick and mortar" schools. The reason is that I've noticed in my school board that a lot of new technologies seem to get implemented very quickly and without proper reflection on choice. For example, almost all schools in my school board have been equipped with SmartBoards. These are huge money pits: they break down often and I see very little ROI as a teaching tool (especially within the senior level courses). But somehow, their numbers keep proliferating... This seems to be the general outlook on most technologies being implemented in the classroom.

I'd rather it broke. If someone linked to the old URL, describing it as "the profile page of an international child murderer", and I later inherited that URL by signing up for the service, I wouldn't be too pleased.

The "y" example is confusingly simplistic; the site already has a "can't use duplicate usernames" rule, so 404'ing the original URL isn't 'worse' for anyone than if the original user didn't delete their account.

Ok, this is some dark humor:

It looks like the researcher sent a proof of concept zip file to symantec which was pw protected with a common password. Symantec's system then tried the common password, extracted the zip, scanned the POC code inside, which crashed their own system.

From the report:
Project Member Comment 1 by taviso@google.com, Yesterday (42 hours ago)

I think Symantec's mail server guessed the password "infected" and crashed (this password is commonly used among antivirus vendors to exchange samples), because they asked if they had missed a report I sent.

They had missed the report, so I sent it again with a randomly generated password.

This story made me think a bit about devices like the Yubikey. I'd really like one to store my keys to sign mail, or for two-factor-authentication. But the main selling point, the tamper-resistant secure-enclave-like chip, is something I don't need. I'd rather have a tiny microcontroler in USB format that I can program myself and understand nearly 100%, with no secret code going on.

My reasoning: I don't need physical tamper-resistance for my threat scenario - if it is stolen by a random thief, a coworker, a "friend", etc..

But if I was attacked by a nation-state-like actor, I cannot trust any security measure of the device. How do I know the NSA does not have a copy of every "random" card-manager key? How do I know that generated keys are not subtly biased so that they can be guessed easily? Or that there is not a secret function to extract them? Even if Yubico is 100% honest and their device is clean, I must assume that if e.g. the NSA were after me, they have the technology to extract the keys from the device, no matter what protection it has.
Nice try.

It's a big step to go from interstate autopilots to having no human in the loop end-to-end. If autopilot systems improve safety and/or are autonomous enough that drivers can sleep and thereby make fewer stops, they'll certainly make sense. However, it may also make economic sense to keep a human on board to handle unanticipated issues or last mile tasks that may be harder to automate.
A feature the Yubi has over a smartcard is the button. You can get smartcard readers with pinpads etc, but not that fit into an Expresscard slot.

I was pretty close to getting a Yubi, until I realized that the default version couldn't modify the PGP applet, and didn't find exactly where to order the special "developer edition" either.

At this point it probably makes more sense to find/make a dongle based on an STM32 or the like. The problems with non-hardened hardware discussed in the article are real, but I'd bet the features/innovation enabled by a Free design will outweigh those tradeoffs (eg an audit log, indication of what you're signing/unlocking, actual encrypted key material when the device is "cold").

An actual long-haul trucker commented at length about this on a reddit thread. I can't seem to find it. The TL;DR was that tyhe actual driving of the truck was a no-brainer to automate away, but that despite being a large portion of the job from a time perspective, it was a small portion of the job functionally speaking. The majority of a long haul trucker's job is interacting with legal authorities at weigh stations, dealing with loading crews, performing required truck maintenance on the road, etc...

It was an interesting insight. I'm sure all of that could be automated away eventually, but no where near as quickly as the actual driving. I agree with other commenters in this thread that I see truck driving going the way of the train engineer quite soon, but that having truly driverless trucks is a bit further out.

Its knowledge of the text may be, its knowledge of what that means in practical terms will probably not be; the law often specifies that action be "reasonable" or similar terms, in light of the conditions.

I'm not sure you really understand how commingle works?

If you have something with a UPC code, say the DVD Back to the Future, the latest edition... it will get put on the same shelf as other people with the same identical product, with the same identical UPC.

They aren't just dumping all DVDs in a big pile and picking out a random one.. its for literally identical products.

Does someone pirate DVDs and put the proper UPC on them? I guess it might happen, but how often? And if it did you tell Amazon and get a full refund and the seller is banned.

I can see reasons to not trust Amazon (the fake reviews, etc), but commingling of sealed goods is not one of them.
