So in other words, you've replaced money with votes. Will everyone have an equal number of votes? Do parents get more votes as they have children to support? Do the votes of locals have greater weight than the votes of people from outside a region where a proposed change is due to take place? How do people stay informed about all the votes they should be participating in? If someone wants to opt out of your proposed society, can they do so and still retain material resources?

Right!

I've been on both sides of a question based on an old/weak skill, in an interview.
Add a link to your LinkedIn profile. I just searched for you, and came up with a over a dozen guys with the same name, many with a similar background.
I mean common instrumentation available is: yes rating button, real name, mandatory picture, verified picture, verified identity, friends feature, high visibility of friend feeds, public-only communication, admins... Social web services of any sort implement some combination of these.

Reddit implements only a rating button as far as I know. (Sorry not a regular user, but I bet it has one or two other mechanism to prevent people from posting complete trash regularly.)

Actually before Facebook become popular, almost all social media platforms were practically anonymous. In the middle of the 90s this worked IMHO quite well because only few people had access anyway. So you could see that Forums, chats etc became trashier. Facebook came up with real identity profiles (real name, picture etc etc), so the quality of content and contacts got exceptionally high for social media.

I guess another leap in this direction might become necessary. Not sure what this would be, but if we don't want state to babysit our social networks, the site operators better come up with innovations in that area.
I don't give two craps about do the companies have my phone number or not, so I understand their argument.

Phone numbers are something all people have, so using it as a backup if you lose your Yubikey makes sense.

With that said, I do understand that someone using a Yubikey has probably already thought about "what happens if I lose it" and advanced threats against SMS, but if we want them to be used by everyone, this seems like a nice compromise.
The unnecessary flood of multicast packets these Google devices send is causing your AP to drop to its lowest speed and broadcast those packets.

Its the equivalent of having an 802.11B client that only syncs at 1Mbps and is constantly downloading. There is no airtime left for anyone else!

Things you can try: Block 802.11G and lower clients (increases your minimum WiFi transmission speed), convert multicast packets to unicast (LEDE is apt to support that), or throw the chromecast in the dustbin!
I believe the only car sensor for SCATS is an inductive loop so it doesn't know the amount of backed up traffic, and it was developed in the 1970s and rolled out across Australia in the 80s - it's better than a timer but I don't think it should be what the world aspires to.

That being said, I had some interesting conversations with a person who worked for Transport for NSW who said some of the signalling backend was recently improved to streamline future integration with self driving cars, I can't find a reference for this though.
I agree. If it was just a resume hosting tool and a graph of who probably knows who then it would be quite valuable. As long as it is... whatever you call that kind of thing, its always going to be something people hate.
There's nothing I love more than coworkers whose keyboards are louder than someone speaking with intensity. I definitely don't want to break their keyboards over their monitors in any way. It's definitely not as annoying as people who play music on speakers in public places and have no sense that there are other people around. I'm so happy this definitely not terrible technology is coming to laptops so I can endure this happily when someone on the plane next to me is typing.
They won't be able to achieve anything like 2GB/s when handling reads from swap, because they are likely to be lots of small chunks of reads - the pages being swapped in are often 4k and will be very difficult to predict, so bulk I/O will be unlikely. Same goes for writes, with the added proviso that your SSDs will have far worse small file write performance than reads, which is probably the 2GB/s headline figure.

A better statistic to use is how many IOPS the disk can handle.
Google doesn't design android hardware outside of their own models. It's not within Google's power (realistically speaking) to force all hardware vendors to start manufacturing secure enclave.

This evolution in hardware design will start at the top companies and young startup companies (far and few between in the cellphone market) and trickle down to the rest as the price becomes commoditized.
Umm.. That's pretty damning. Why would a technology that isn't production ready yet be featured in a "most popular" list?
Manual blinking can improve dry eyes caused by extended computer use: https://iristech.co/blink-detection/

"As we stare at the computer screen or while reading, our blinkrate decreases. We actually blink 66% less while working on the computer. This can make your eyes burn, dry out, turn red or feel itchy ... research demonstrates that we do enter some sort of altered mental state when we blink — we’re not just doing it to lubricate our eyes. A blink could provide a momentary island of introspective calm in the ocean of visual stimuli that defines our lives."
If I may ask, which disks are you using?

I can second the advice about the 2nd set of glasses.

Last time I upgraded my prescription I asked my optometrist about working in from of a computer all day, and he said "If you can see the screen without wearing any glasses, do that. Otherwise use your old ones (with the less powerful lenses)."

Since I've been doing that, my eyes have felt a bit better. Maybe I could get away with an even weaker set, but I haven't really looked into it.
I agree as a matter of general principle. But these kind of decisions are hard to completely automate. Even if the final output is a number, you need to make judgement calls that go into the number. What's the value to Amazon to the goodness and population of schools within X distance vs. walkability vs. tax breaks? And then, what are the real deal-breakers?

You can certainly use numbers to cull the field. But you probably end up with a few cities that all look good on paper and on the numbers but have different strengths and weaknesses that are more qualitative.
Well, it could protect us by making all synthetic ingredients illegal. Because there's no way to really know that some novel ingredient is safe. But that ain't gonna happen.

Do you feel helpless to stop the problem of antibiotics use in the meat industry?

You’re not! Here’s a simple easy trick you can use to reduce its impact on the world: eat less meat.

You don’t need meat in 3 meals a day. Reduce it to 1 meal a day and you’ve already reduced your antibiotics impact by 2/3. Cut down to one meat meal a week and that’s a 96% reduction.

You’re not powerless. Vote with your wallet and your stomach.

Routers deal with IP traffic (and even have to mess with TCP, e.g. clamp MSS), not just the 802.1 and 802.11. For SOHO routers, high PPS multicast UDP may be something hardware-accelerated routing doesn't particularly account for. And if software routing kicks in, high packet rate can very easily overload poor device's CPU.
That's not necessarily how the US civil court system works. Courts will sometimes throw out or alter contracts if a good-faith mistake by one party produces a result that would violate the fundamental principle of equity. This is more likely if the result appears to violate the original intent of the contract.

Shameless plug:

I recently wrote a browser extension that verifies (using PGP) the integrity of the page, and thanks to subresource-integrity also the integrity of external scripts and css, making it possible to trust that the JavaScript application you are running is what the developers intended you to be running.

How do you respond to unsuccessful applicants? I sent an application for a (my first) junior position one month ago and heard nothing back. It would be much kinder if you were to at least acknowledge receipt; just an auto-responder that said "We receive a large volume of applications. If you haven't heard back within x-timeframe, please consider your application unsuccessful" would suffice. Just being ignored is demoralising.
Yes you are blaming the British. By the way have you heard correlation does not imply causation?

First of all your original comment is factually wrong. Bombay and Pune were British controlled so your theory is wrong that non British controlled areas are doing better.
Your situation is not unusual. It may or may not get better.

Probably your best bet is to be open about it and be ready to move on when you reach a good point (say when the product is 100% done)
AMD PC bricked?  a potential fix
Open the article and search for "Escape Recognition, Noise Words, Help" which was encapsulated into the COMND JSYS in TOPS-10 and TOPS-20.

One of the most key things about Escape Recognition on TOPS-20 was that it could used by novices and experts alike. Novices could type a question mark (?) at any point, even before logging in, and the available commands would be displayed. An expert could also type a question mark at any point in a complex command line to display that pesky option that he'd otherwise forgotten about.

TOPS-20 occupied entirely too much of my time during college. This 1982 Rolling Stone article about LOTS-A and its users at Stanford captured the feeling well

Hang on, if you're converting multicast packets does that mean only one device is receiving them?
The problem with those Kailh is getting keycaps. At least the cherry one will be compatible with MX keycaps, although I don't know where you'd get low-profile ones from. Hopefully they're available as spare parts soon.

As an ergodox user, I'd also be really interested in a mobile low-profile Atreus, but I need more keys, at least like an Atreus64.
As someone who has a couple rigs mining 24/7 I would say he’s looking at the profitability of mining wrong. Personally I don't reinvest my mining profits in more mining equipment. There's a hard cap on how much amperage can be delivered to my house, and I have no interest in interfering with my daily appliances.

As far as when does it becomes profitable to play games with consensus? Never. Most miners mine using pools like suprnova, ethermine, and nanopool. I don't have control over whether we are appropriately confirming transactions or not, but it would be pretty unwise for my pool to start violating consensus.

Polygamy was tongue-in-cheek, they of course only practice spiritual polygamy these days, since it's illegal.

Worthiness interviews are absolutely systemic though. You might not think it's child abuse for an adult man, a "bishop", to have one-on-one interviews with 11-14yo children asking them if they masturbate, but I do.

Fast and testimony meetings are of course systemic, every first Sunday of the month. Their horror is more of a roll-your-eyes extreme boredom kind, though.

> Ansible requires a central server and full commitment to immutable deployments

i dont know what that means. Ansible is like a much more structured form of shell scripting, you can run ansible playbooks from anywhere to do anything and make them do anything. i don't know what an "immutable deployment" is.

also ansible has nothing to do with "config", YAML is used as a declarative scripting language rather than a config file format.
Could you please do a little better at posting substantively than this?

The sad thing is that this understates the parallelism of the evolutionary process by ... many orders of magnitude. A single human gut has on the order of 100 trillion bacteria. Also, the gp poster seems to be unaware of plasmids and conjugation process, too. (unless it was sarcasm that went over my head, which it very well may have been)

The smartest thing in my opinion the mayor of Detroit did was to turn everything about the bid over to Dan Gilbert. He's received a ton of criticism for it.

But using the talents of a billionaire entrepreneur gives Detroit a leg up in my opinion. Every other city's pitch was built inside city hall.

Detroit may not get the winning bid but no one is going to be able to say they didn't try harder than everyone else.

If you care about this, you can use Shamir Secret Sharing to require two (or more) keys to recover the encrypted file. So even if AWS was malicious, they still wouldn't be able to get the file without your other key (presumably a GPG or GCP KMS key)
I am experiencing this. The button does not appear on Chrome.
I know - I was being a bit snarky there because what they did was in bad taste, in my opinion. I'm actually a fan of their music, though they are no longer the huge commercial success that they were in the 90s.
I've been using SOPS daily for more than a year (before the rewrite from python into golang) and it works pretty well. It supports GPG for onprem installs and KMS for AWS. Its main supported filetypes are YAML and JSON files but I've used it with pretty much everything. The main benefit I've seen over other solutions is the ability to check my secrets into git knowing that they are encrypted. This means you can version your secrets while knowing that if your repo accidentally becomes public you won't suddenly end up with compromised servers. Usually for auth hosted services you still have to problem of how do you get the secrets into there in the first place through 100% automation.
I notice they had to add the bacteria to the mice to do the test. I wonder if some of the instances when drugs work on mice but not in human trials are due to the different gut bacteria at work?

I'm not talking about this fantastic new hate-speech law per se

Then you should have made your general point at the outset. Surely it's clear that the law applies to people providing services to consumers in Germany.

Imagine if Turkey asked Facebook to enforce Article 301 of the Turkish Penal Code.

In Turkey? OK I guess. I haven't bothered to look up Article 301 or even whether it exists since I presume you're making a rhetorical point.

No, because the DPRK can't even do reentry right, let alone actually fit a nuke on a missile, for all of those huge swaths of people assuming it meant a nuclear attack. Regardless, it is uncontroversial that aiming at a target like Hawaii and actually hitting it is at this time beyond the technical means of the DPRK.
That seems an odd list. I would probably have named San Jose as one of the least likely places among the cities submitting bids.

As for Boston, Amazon is admittedly already adding a sizable facility in the Seaport but costs for an HQ2 and cost of living in the city would seem to disqualify.

Personally, I'd put my money on a major city that isn't a current tech hub but could become more of one.
To me this sounds like an adaption for responding to hostile situations at an early age.

Suppose for a moment that we already have a longer (10 years to even reach puberty) development period for the exact reason of needing more processing capacity. It doesn't seem a stretch to me to think that being self aware later occurs because there is more groundwork development to occur for our complex reasoning.

You do understand that one can object to the enforcement of a specific law (whatever country it is from) because one objects to the content of the law without objecting to the idea that souvereign countries can and should generally enforce their laws on everyone who influences what happens within their borders, right?
In an age of increasing nationalistic sentiments and military escalation, it's become a common trope that there's almost no one left to remember the tragedies of WWII. Coincidentally there's certainly nobody alive who remembers the previous pandemic, Spanish Flu.

Imho we should have something like an once-every-two-months thread in which we publish an anonymous version of our CV and can get constructive feedback.
Which constitution? The German one? I am sure they did not ignore it when writing this law, and if they did, someone will refer it to the BVerfG, which can then cancel the law. Anyway, private media (as opposed to public media, such as the BBC, ARD etc where the rules are very different) are not bound by laws or constitution to publish everything anyone throws at them. The corporations and individuals are free to do anything that is not forbidden by laws. So Facebook is free to decide what to publish, unless it is forbidden by law.

> Wut? Taxing Facebook more in order to finance an independent judicial system that takes care of the legal cases involving Facebook is a textbook case of privatising profits and externalising costs? I'm not sure I follow!?

Perhaps I missed where you mentioned raising taxes for Facebook as a solution. That's an interesting idea. I see two possible problems with that:

1) Facebook sells ads. Other companies sell ads. How do we decide who pays the higher tax and who not, and make it fair? For example, Google (sans Youtube and the irrelevant G+) is not a social network, but can still spread disinfo, hate speech etc. Should they pay the tax too?

2) Even if we had the money for such a judicial system, there is still the question of effectivity - the damage spreads very fast in this case, can we even design such a thing that provides good value for money while staying reasonably objective? And of course Facebook has the same problem now, as other private media (newspapers, TV stations) had before them - and the cheap solution seems to be to err on the side of caution. Are you soure we can do better?

I think it is correct, Facebook (and twitter, ...) extracts value from communication between citizens, and it looks like (e.g. from the Economist article mentiond above) also creates negative externalities that did not exist before.
OP here. Microsoft Support was truly useless. They wanted to charge $500 to speak to a representative.

Not to go totally Adam Smith here, but if everyone did this, wouldn’t this just drive the cost of meat down? Making it even cheaper than it already is?

Wouldn’t it make more sense to explicitly seek out “better” meat?

$RHAT is an outlier in that it is an open source company that brings in real money. Other companies like mongodb, hortonworks, and pivotal might get some mindshare but it is hard to believe that they will make real money.
