This demo, coupled with the headline, really hits a sour note. So much about a piece of furniture you care enough about to design and place into your home is not about getting just the right number of rays on your stellate-pattern tabletop.

It's more about the exposed edges, the joinery, and the surfaces you will touch. That's where your eyes are attracted. That's the tough stuff to resolve cleanly when you design a piece. And that's a part that the knock-together construction here is not going to help with.

I guess this might have a place with very simple pieces that really need to fit in a certain space, say, between a wall and a fireplace.
They're not too small, as they seem to be actively tracked by AFSPC and others.

Also, there are estimated to be hundreds of thousands of pieces of debris smaller than these satellites. It's not clear that four more satellites are really going to raise the risk bar that much.
I'm in Santa Monica at the moment and encountered these scooters for the first time upon my arrival. I've been paying attention to how they're used by people and where I see them, and playing around with their app. I've no particular reason for doing so, other than base curiosity.

Leaving my hotel one morning this week, around 6:30am and before commuter traffic had really started, I noticed there were eight of their scooters line up just outside the exit of the hotel. I maid a point to walk by other hotels on the way to work and about half seemed to have them outside. By 8 or so, they were gone.

So, to answer your question: I assume there are a bunch of couriers or "Field Agent" style gig employees that walk around the downtown and collect them, and that they have an app that shows the last known location of each one. I also assume that there is a van somewhere that picks them up once they're collected, takes them somewhere to charge at night, and then drops them off at hotels and transit stops before the morning rush begins.
Corporations can capture government just as much as coops. It depends which is relatively more effective at swaying policy, money or votes. In the U.S. contemporary social and political dynamics make money much more important as voters currently suck at tracking the relationship between their desired outcomes and actual policy. But at other times votes were more important. It depends on the dynamics in Italy. (Or maybe it just depends on the labor system--it's maybe not a coincidence that votes were more powerful in the U.S. when unions were big, and money more powerful when business interests dominated policy. In that sense, you can expect corporations or coops to slowly capture government, regardless.)

Though some of the Italian statistics were ambiguous as to whether they included non-worker-owned coops (perhaps even deceptively so!), the main thrust of the article was clearly about worker-owned coops

While cooperatives in the United States claim about 130
million memberships, these are by and large within consumer
and producer-owned co-ops, not cooperative workplaces. Only
around 7,000 people nationwide are part of worker co-ops.

Sure, FU money is great, but almost no one ever has FU money, even when they have a shit tonne of money, because the hedonic treadmill is real, and at some point you end up with people depending on your financial support.

Also, this is not necessarily advocating for staying in a shitty situation, but rather if the situation is fine not quitting before starting a job search.

I don't see anything here about helmets. Not sure how to wear a seat belt on a scooter or a bicycle. Did you read my comment? Safety first "works" if you don't want to do anything.
I think the best way to avoid them is by not using any landlines, but I believe it couldn't be a right option for you. I think ignoring calls from unfamiliar numbers is the only thing that we could do, and it saves your time. I just read at http://www.whycall.me/news/consumer-wins-massive-229500-robo... about suing telemarketers. It might works for you if you are dealing with legit telemarketers.
I wouldn’t put it that way to someone. If you do like rap, though, or more generally pop music you owe it to rap and pop music to listen to their roots - jazz, blues (the old stuff - Howlin Wolf, Elmore James, etc), and R & B. I did this with my absolute favorite band (at that time), Led Zeppelin. I sought after and listened to all the versions of their songs from the songs roots. Many bands’ iconic songs started out in the fields with sharecroppers. All of those songs other “covers” shine a different light on them. I discovered more music that made me feel similarly to how Led Zeppelin did - after exhausting all of LZ’s music.

In terms of classical music, there are pop songs that include or took entire parts of classical songs in a new angle. To listen to classical music is to more fully explore the music you already love.

Further, imagine if you went through life never having watched any movies or plays nor read any books. It’s possible to do so, but you would definitely censor yourself out of a valuable part of the human experience.

Just some other stuff

guitar solos in all songs -> a tiny excerpt of Flamenco guitar.

The sort of song where there’s an introductory period of instrumental music before the vocals -> started with Elmore James’ “The Sky is crying”

The first movement of Beethoven’s 7th is prelude to one of the most beautiful pieces of art, the second movement of Beethoven’s 7th.

A person had a mental breakdown playing Rachmaninov’s second piano concerto. His music can be as intense as a thunderstorm.

Bach. I can often tell I’m listening to Bach because there was Bach and then all the other people to touch an instrument let alone compose. Sometimes I can’t connect to his music, other times I feel as though my brain was rewired to the deep reality of the universe.
I think some studies have shown that the same set of people (or, let's say, people randomly assigned to one group or the other) can have very different behavior depending on the situation they're in. It seems at least possible that a forum could maintain its rules and norms while people join... though received wisdom says that if too many join at once, then the norms can be broken.
There are real plans to attempt this, at least on some smaller scale.

Astroscale is one example: http://astroscale.com/

Yes, most. Most HNers have zero appreciation for serious music. This post announcing the death of David Bowie got 1484 upvotes and 301 comments (and the brave few who criticized it as off-topic got flagged):

By contrast, the death of Boulez, love him or hate him, got two upvotes and zero comments:

And the deaths of Claudio Abbado and Alexis Weissenberg, as additional examples, were ignored completely.

Cars are a tremendous waste of space in cities; they waste space on the road and waste more space for parking. They also destroy the roadway and (non-electric ones) pollute the air.

Even if you like driving, you should be happy when other people walk, cycle, or use public transit; it reduces traffic for you.
From a legal perspective, how would going more than 25 MPH be relevant?
Where did all that money come from? Moron is right.
I had a manager try to do this. After we all argued, he would make the decision of which idea we all had to commit fully to.
If when a bank gives false statements (what is Owellianly called identify theft) to the credit agencies, this should be highly punished and the problems we are having with leaking true information about people would go away.
It is also a bit of a strange comparison since the weapons produced today are hundreds of times more powerful than the ones produced sixty years ago. It seems like the US or Russia will prominently decommission old bombs and people will hail the lower number of nuclear weapons but in reality the total amount of destructive force in the nuclear arsenal long term is the same or greater.
Sadly, this seems to suffer from the main thing that domestic US health insurance does: if you have pre-existing conditions, you're screwed.
>Doing things in the browser shows customers that it's done properly and verifiably.

So customers are skilled enough to check the (webpacked together with other stuff and minified) JS code running in their browser before they run it? Even if this was actually feasible, it would be still orders of magnitude easier to just do GPG in a terminal.

And don't forget that, according to the article, we're talking about a crowd where even a lot of the long-standing big sellers are not smart enough to remove GPS meta-data from their product pictures.

>It also makes attack way more public.

You can still serve different (malicious) JS to a select bunch of your users who are least likely to notice and kinda spearfish with that. E.g. it's entirely feasible to just bug new first customers you fingerprinted as using default Tor Browser installs (most likelihood they are tech newbies too).

Even if users make sure the code they run is verified, how do users make sure the public key they are encrypting with is the public key of the party they intent and not a key the (rogue/police) operators of the website put there themselves, doing a good old active MITM key switcheroo? It's not like there is an independent web of trust in the realm of a tor drug market that you can check for that information. Even if the public keys of the big players (most of which would be sellers) are widely known, the key of Joe Newcustomer is not, so you can at least eavesdrop on communication directed to him by replacing his key with your own, look what the seller is writing and also at all those "Joe Newcustomer wrote: >" lines too, and nobody will ever notice until the police knocks on their doors.
With the described margin of error, that would be more than enough for "identical" photos.
I've been in relationships with 2 women who could code, but who absolutely didn't want to do that as a job. (They formed these ideas well before they met me.) I also taught 100 level Computer Science courses at University, and encountered many young women with similar attitudes. There is something going on in our culture which makes women not want to code as a job.

How do you know that what they want is a consequence of our culture? Did they say so?

For example, if they don't want to because it's just not enjoyable or interesting enough, then I think that's okay (provided it's being presented properly). It is okay if a person is not interested in a type of work. It doesn't necessarily imply anything wrong with either.
And the rest of the country somehow “deserves” their fair share of that.

Asbestos is more than an irritant. The toxicity and resulting cancer is due to the small particle size and the iron atoms in the asbestos that catalyze the formation of reactive oxygen species that damage the cell and can cause mutations.

I guess my point is that there is no mechanism by which ammonia could cause something like this. It's a simple molecule that pretty much causes irritation due to it's alkaline properties.

It renders them (but only the README, not PRs or issues or comments), but ultimately it’s only ever going to support basic org-mode features because:

(1) org-mode is a format native to emacs. The org parser and HTML formatter are written in elisp.

(2) github is not going to run emacs processes server-side, in order to render user content in org format.
Punishment seldom if ever fits the crime. There's a strong case that punishment exists to give society a chance for collective catharsis. Otherwise it makes little sense to imprison someone for 7 years. If they can be rehabilitated then do so; if they need to be removed from society permanently then do that. Public ostentatious punishment is really a form of vicarious group sadism directed at the unpopular.

You can also set up a camera in front of your monitor and just record the whole thing. DRM has never been functional. Best it can do, is deflect the average user from just quickly sending it to his friend. But anyone with any motivation can easily get around it.

Yup that's pretty much where I'm going although without pub/sub ideally. it's marketing analytics so if a few inserts fail it doesn't matter. But might not be able to get the 0 -> 1000s instant working without Google's abstraction messaging in front (similar setup on AWS w. kinesis but it's too complicated for me)

I did think about doing something like transforming the POST in AWS Lambda (the emitter data is hosted there too) and transform into something I can ingest direct into pub/sub.

I can't control the emitting data. if I did it would be a much easier problem, each POST request contains very little data if there were multiple entries per single POST it would solve most of my problems, instead of sending 5k tiny JSON posts /sec lol
Total cost of ownership should be lower too:

Not even sure if they're really serious or just being brutally sarcastic...
Isn't it crazy how the banks have somehow convinced people that when the bank loans money to a fraudster that somehow your credit has been stolen? No - the bank had money stolen from it by a fraudster. When the bank lies to the credit bureau that you have defaulted on a loan, the bank should be fucking punished heavily. Can't some US Senator (Elizabeth Warren?) please point out this fact and introduce legislation to fine the banks? Everyone (minus epsilon bankers) would love it.
They were relying on surveys of memory but they indicated spraying only once a week versus any other method was correlated with issues.
Not interesting to who? Coincidences can interesting even if they don't point to a causal relationship. I find it interesting that word for Jupiter in Chinese is wood simply because it's an interesting association to make.
Infrared is by definition not what you would think of as a color. The colors in that picture are false, and a stylistic choice made during the rendering process. It would be just as accurate to use shades of blue and make it look icy. Perhaps more accurate as the upper atmosphere portrayed here is very, very cold.
I don't want to get into a comment war here. Let's just say I respectfully disagree that there is plenty of facts and data, and that what facts and data are there area really more of an opinion with thin data that seems to violate the new guidelines that are being brought up to say that my comment is out of place. In my opinion the author has gone out of his way to cherry pick data to support his claim and has not put effort into finding data that would prove him wrong.
Where do you get phosphoric acid? The strongest conventionally available stuff is Limeaway and CLR and those are not strong enough for heavy calcium deposits. The strongest home stuff appears to be toilet bowl cleaners with diluted hydrochloric acid or hydrochloric acid for chlorinating pools.
It almost looks like Joe Bollocks this way (which wouldn't be a term universally known in the US either).
They only speculate about lung irritants like bleach and ammonia that are common in cleaning sprays.

> This implementation save the JWT into a client cookie. Because of this do not store in the JWT Token sensible data like passwords.

JWT is designed for authentication claims, and not to completely replace $_SESSION data, although technically you can stuff as much as you want into the payload. The wording makes me uneasy about the implementation - but decent advice otherwise. (Also note that getting JWT implementations/crypto right is somewhat tricky, obvs. Caveat emptor)

On a quick note, storing big blobs of data in DynamoDB is asking for trouble, and AWS actually recommend S3 for this [0]. Best to not find this out the hard way (i.e. huge bill).

>everyone insists that Bach is very deliberate in his choice of key

They’re being precious. He was a consummate pro who frequentlyrecycled his own themes and those of others, and his pieces often changed keys a dizzying number of times within just a few measures. Besides, that shit sounds beyond awesome on viola.
Or maybe:

1. Bank loans money to a fraudster with your information.

2. Fraudster does not pay back the bank.

3. Bank commits libel and tells the credit agency that you defaulted on a loan

4. You tell the police that the bank broke the law.

5. Bank gets heavily fined and stops lying to the credit bureaus.

6. "Identify theft" no long exists.
Take regular glasses, and just make them a bit smarter, without changing their appearance much. Could be useful for displaying interface menu elements (e.g. your browser tool bar), this way you'd gain screen size and/or have more direct access to more tools at the same time, without clicking through lists and stuff.
I think it imports any JS blocker you might be using on Firefox. For instance, in my case, I installed Tor and when I started it the first time, I saw the 'NoScript' tab enabled.
It takes a fairly significant amount of time to charge a car - sometimes equivalent to a commute. So most consumers base their purchase on charging at home, meaning apartment renters are more likely to get a hybrid.

One of the oft-mentioned benefits of an electric car is simply charging it overnight, so it's ready to go the next day. Part of this not having to think about an extra trip for fuel every few weeks. It seems odd that someone would forgo this convenience to travel somewhere else for a recharge, or purchase a vehicle that could not travel a round trip on a charge.
Between 1999 and 2014 the percentage of non-elderly enrolled in employer-sponsored coverage dropped from 67% to 56%.

https://www.kff.org/private-insurance/issue-brief/trends-in-employer-sponsored-insurance-offer-and-coverage-rates-1999-2014/

Healthcare coverage became popular because of unions and because of government tax policy combined with government regulations that require employers to offer workers the same healthcare plans as management (if provided at all). Moreover, the overall insured rate also declined over that time period.

https://aspe.hhs.gov/basic-report/overview-uninsured-united-states-summary-2011-current-population-survey

What really changed between 1999 and 2014 was the continued decline of unions concomitant with accelerated overseas out-sourcing and a shift to part-time labor (where government regulations regarding benefit equity permits greater discrimination against employees).

Make of that what you will (the implications are complex), but realize that in terms of labor market dynamics and relative to what's theoretically economically optimal, the predominance of employer-sponsored healthcare is a very... odd... outcome, and hardly an exemplar of the benefits of free market enterprise. In as much as it was beneficial it required external, non-market[1] pressures, and in any event it's hardly praiseworthy.

[1] I'll assume for the sake of argument that government-enforced union arbitration is more market antagonistic than the government-enforced limited liability of corporate stockholders. But in my view I don't see how the laws which make it viable for unions to bargain collectively in the labor market are worse than laws which make capitalist financing viable.

Is it possible that Google would know that you watch Meet the Press (generally)? That coupled with knowledge that it was replaced by the golf tournament (either from TV listings or an influx of people searching "Meet the Press" + "golf" to find out why it isn't on) _might_ explain it without Google/Verizon specifically tracking that individual event.

That's just how insurance stays solvent. Imagine if car companies sold you car insurance after you'd gotten in a car crash. It wouldn't really be insurance then, would it? You'd just be paying them to pay your bills, which isn't exactly a sustainable business model.

I don't think most people would care about having their info collected if they did not fear that the information would be corrupted with lies from banks who have been the victims of loan fraud. If credit reports only had true information, "identity theft" would not exist. Somehow the banks get away with lying to the credit bureaus about you defaulting on loans. And the credit bureaus are not penalized for propagating the lies.
Not sure why a law can't be passed to fix this propagation of lies. Free speech limitations?

Weapon yields are much, much smaller nowadays than in the 1950s and 60s.

The highest-yield US warhead was the 25Mt Mk 41, retired in 1976. All warheads in the inventory now are in the sub-Mt range, mostly around 150 to 300 Kt
