I've never experience blue taxiway lights being confused as white/runway lighting, even in the very common case of uncontrolled airport where they frequently do leave taxiway lighting on, and runway lighting off, and use pilot controlled lighting to enable the runway lights on demand.

I'd expect at SFO, like any other major airport I have flown into, does have both runway and taxiway lighting enabled as pilots are on final approach. So they do have a reference: the white runway lights versus blue taxiway lights, which on final approach are in the same field of view. And even on the lowest intensity setting, runway lights are brighter than taxiway lights.

Something about this particular situation definitely is off. I don't know if there's something operationally different about SFO's lighting. Or if the pilots really were that fatigued, and this is a seriously underestimated factor.
This is a nice platitude, but once you dig deeper you'll see that its not coherent. You're saying that companies are obligated to spread their home nation law to other nations, and conversely foreign companies to you in your own nation. I believe you'd find that extremely uncomfortable very quickly.
If an article says Trump gave a speech, how do you verify with machine learning, using a blockchain, that Trump literally gave a speech?

I don’t really understand your business. It’s a business, but also dencentralised. Are you trying to verify if news is fake or not? Why do you need a blockchain or machine learning for this? Do you have your own coin?

Totally! And there are much better algorithms for the internet routing protocols, very well documented and tested and all, still just sitting on desks under paperweights...

Yes, there's a failure. You've not provided any evidence that someone was banned because of "conservative views". Not a single shred. Thus, you're clearly not wanting to discuss in good faith, and you just want to feed your conservative persecution complex. Good day.
Micron sized should be fine, and they’re going to form a. God phase when hydrated so you don’t have to worry about long-term friability. Nanoscale would be a concern because of the ability to directly enter cells, but micron would be fine unless you’re breathing a cloud of the stuff when it’s fresh ad dry. Under normal wear and tear that won’t happen.
They might not shut down google docs but they will randomly lock your documents for a few days because a script thought they seemed unusual. Had it happen to me and apparently lots of others have had it as well.
_Thank you_. I'm constantly astonished to see folks extolling UBNT gear for anything other than WISP purposes (where it admittedly fits a price profile that's unmatchable). Read about the first ~10 months of the ES16-XG DAC support issues. Read about how EdgeRouters could never approach even 40% of line rate with fq_codel running. Read about how they lied about the future of the mFi line for 8+ months before abandoning it entirely. Not to mention the GPL stuff you note, the inconsistent and semi-nonfunctional PoE, and general lack of support or consistency.

At some level, you really do get what you pay for. They are great for people who want to set up a "homelab" without learning anything about actual networking, though.
I believe the case of network partition only matters in case of an attack on the system, i.e. someone entering conflicting information.

That would be somewhat obvious, and you'd have to go after that actor. But as long as that doesn't happen, and even if it would happen, most transactions will actually be valid enough to trace the food chain.
My experience with Runscope is limited but it seems best suited to monitor existing production APIs and verify happy-paths. Our API Pulse actively takes an adversarial approach to examine how an API behaves when fuzzing inputs and also checks for various best practices.
Hmmm, yes, though they do say "In this paper we focus on primary (camera) rays, i.e. rays with a
common origin or parallel rays, because only these are also covered
by rasterization. We consider secondary rays and efficient global illumination algorithms, such as path tracing or photon mapping, as
orthogonal to our approach."

Just what that "orthogonal" means is a bit mysterious, but their project seems to be to generalize rasterization further than they've got in this paper: "we aim for further generalization, in particular, a parameterization which allows for incremental computation, not only for the ray direction, but also the ray origin"
How do you account for winds and pressure differences, both of which will modify an approach. A plane may look like it is landing short, or to the left/right, when in fact the pilot is anticipating a change in wind as they drop in altitude.
Whats new here? Was this just not on GitHub before or is there some big change?
I agree that their API is great, but there's so much more to building a business - most of all perseverance. Many people can make a good or great API but very few can execute on the rest.

> By what measure is "any individual more likely to be harmed" determined?

Do mammograms detect cancer? Yes.

Do mammograms lead to reductions in all cause mortality? Probably not, no.

There's a bunch of stuff where we use proxy measures when we should be using different measures (all cause mortality; days lost to disability; QALYs).

> However, I don't think consumer access to medical screening equipment is similar. In fact, I think that empowering consumers and patients to be more in control of their medical decisions is vastly net-positive, and as the article points out, the healthcare industry is going to need to adapt to it.

You get a scan. It shows a lump. What do you do? Most people say "get a biopsy", which is ok if we're saving lives or reducing days lost to disability, but if we're not doing those and we're causing harm then giving power to people really just means hurting them.

Here's a nice infographic: https://twitter.com/Jia_Luo/status/951985691772293120

18 deaths vs 21 deaths, and that's important, but look at the extra harm caused.
Not responding to your question directly but I just want to mention that if you mark your class as mutable and use mutable instances, you can write code as you’d expect from other languages. The only downside is that you can’t pass those values to a memoized function unless you do a deep copy.
>Is that the point of mining? To make inserting hordes of cheap lying nodes impossible?

That's called a Sybil attack, and yes that's one of the reasons.

Mining also makes creating blocks have a real world energy cost. So rewriting history quickly becomes almost impossible as blocks are added. An attacker would have to have more than 50% of all mining power for a sustained period of time.

I suggest reading the Bitcoin whitepaper, it's short and sweet.

Very much agree with you here. I have not been able to secure the superb job I dream of yet, but my skills have gotten to the point where a teenage version of myself would definitely ask, "How the hell did you do that?!" =)
No, you don't get to pull that. You have not provided a shred of evidence of anything, so of course no one is going to be convinced by your ranting.
This game is free to play, cards could be printed from the github page.

The goal is to be the first to reach 42 for either of your 2 variables. For that, you will have to create a program that gets them closer to 42. Different kind of cards will help you to achieve that, if you are lucky enough: values and loop cards will help you increment your variable value. All the other cards will be used to slow down your opponents or defend yourself from a previous attack.

Some of the cards: code freeze, legacy code, pair programming, mob programming, memory leak, rollback, refactoring.
They are not that interesting. You have no way to verify if their statements about encryption are true, so you'd be nuts to bet much on assuming they are. WhatsApp being sold to an advertising company is just one fine example of why it's nuts.

In fact given the recent bill's introduced into the Australian parliament, it's irrelevant if they are true. The bill allows the government to demand they produce a version of WhatsApp with a bug that sends a copy of all data receives somewhere, and also allows them to demand they download that app via the automatic security patch mechanism. So unless there is a way to verify what software you have isn't bugged you have to assume even if it isn't now, it could well be in the future.

There are ways out of this mess, but none of them are based on taking someones word for it. Yet the "it's secure because that's what it says on the box" seems to be the most common security model people adopt. It's so clearly wrong I sometimes think I'd be less perplexed if most of the world's population started insisting water wasn't wet.
Not the answer to your question, but in case it helps anyone: trademarks are unrelated to patents. You can use a random forest but you can not call them “random forest”. “Aleatory jungle” is fine, though.
I have run it at 2 startups and it works great. Current startup is all Unfi stuff including 3 switches and 8 APs for with around ~150 devices connected to Wifi. We use RADIUS just fine for auth for the users. No issues at all. We do not use their firewalls, we use PFSense. I do use a USG at home with no issues.
- Outsource authentication. Use Okta, Auth0, or the likes. Especially cheap for Enterprise SaaS apps where there will not be a lot of users.

- Use a first-party, well-known framework for the frontend. create-react-app, vue-cli, etc. They work well and have supported upgrade paths

- Setup a CI/CD pipeline and testing site early. This may be an upfront investment, but it will allow you to quickly iterate, have something to demonstrate, and easily launch your prod site when you're ready

- Other things I personally like are UI Framework for the frontend, ORM with migration support for the Backend, and Swagger with automatic client library generation. There's arguments for and against each of these but they help me devolop faster
Yeah, popcorn time for youtube would be wonderful.
I'm in a very similar position right now, could I ask you a couple of questions over DM / email?
I really want to move away from Google Analytics. But I have not found a viable alternative so far. I had settled for Piwik (Now Matomo) but I had to disable it when the server it was hosted on crashed when I received a burst of traffic.

GA gives me some good insights but I can live without it if I have an alternative that can safely handle large traffic on a budget.
For basic websites, Google Docs and its WYSIWYG interface is good for many people. Tools like Syncdocs https://www.syncdocs.com lets you create websites in Word and publish via Google Drive.
In this market segment, people probably only want to publish simple websites, and the simplicity of Word/Docs is what they want, compared to Wordpress, which needs maintenance and has a learning curve.
1. Provide just enough of an argument to allow sympathetic people in their own population to believe they are not monsters.

2. But make the argument weak enough that everyone else knows they are monsters, and can and will kill any opponents.
>Yea, but I'm a big fan of regulated food, clean water and pollution standards.

Completely irrelevant. There are no US laws against private companies building censorship tools in the US, let alone in China.
Linux being embroiled in overhyped controversy seen as an opportunity to appeal to developers?
I would believe this, were it not that the google voice app continues to break in new ways version to version. The latest loads a little faster and isn't freezing as much (still a 10 second load, better than a 40 seconds of nothing). But now when I reply to messages? 19/20 messages I've tried to send through GV show "Message failed to send".
There is no law against what Google is doing. This is nothing like the theft argument.
What standards are you referring to? There are no US standards or laws against what Google is proposing.
There’s zero authentication on the Google Authenticator app and it loses all it’s data every phone upgrade. That’s basically what everyone uses.

If someone gets into your 1Password it’s all over anyway.

That said, I pay for the standalone app and store my vault myself. I have no actual reason not to trust AgileBits hosting it, but they must be a huge target and I’m not taking my chances.
You'll need to add RF amplifiers on the transmit and receive paths along with antennas to make this work off the lab bench.
There's an article [in russian] on how easy you can get a government, mobile phone, bank database reports on anybody, you can get list of all bank accounts, history of border crossings, history of mobile phone locations, personal phone numbers, equity ownership, debts and credits online, for tens of $: https://habr.com/post/423947/

The passport data in the investigation is nothing too special. When total control goes side-by-side with corruption, thats the result.
A Bill of Attainder is much narrow than any legislation that targets a particular actor; this is a case where the specific details matter a lot (as does the mood of the Supreme Court, whose tests on this issue have evolved over time in shifting directions.)
Y'all realize this is basically "we're going to stop net neutrality", right? That it's anti-competitive with CDN's that don't sign the contract, just like everybody got bent out of shape with COX doing?
Why do the controllers have rings?
This plus the iOS 12 auto fill integration are like the greatest things ever.

I used to be a Keychain + Authy user but moved everything to 1Password.
It's par for the course. Cisco helped China build the GFW. If you want to prevent business in China related to censorship, then pass a law that does that. Don't senselessly target Google just because it's popular with consumers.
I don't trust this one bit. Bandwidth costs make or break implimenting ideas, and service agreements like this can just stop at any time. Cloudflare cannot be the only service that gets this. The fact that cloud providers won't reduce their costs independently tells you they're not doing this to reduce prices. It's marketing, and they're making money on it. When cloud providers start to encroach on cloudflares territory it'll also be a conflict of interest and this deal will be gone.

Id be happy if cloud providers reduced bandwidth costs for cached assets even.
Really depends IMHO, at least when it comes to the APs. Yes, it's not enterprise-grade, but their APs are also way cheaper than anything enterprise and do the basics well enough. Average small business office use doesn't require much in the way of features, although how long various RADIUS features took was a bit embarrassing (I seem to remember putting clients in different, RADIUS-controlled VLANs wasn't possible for a long time).

Never really trusted their other product lines.
I know this (and even use this occasionally), that's why there are whole separate families of collections in Scala - mutable and immutable collections. And I think it is possible for the compiler to figure out if a type (e.g. a collection type) is mutable or not given its source code and even if it isn't it probably can be made possible by introducing some sort of special annotations to class definitions.
>You can either pay a couple hundred a year for the management interface, or $80 for an on prem tiny little stick that hosts it.

Drivers for Uber, Lyft earn less than half of what they did four years ago
Then you are essentially demanding either that Google:
1) actively support anti-democratic, anti-human rights activities to the extent that they're willing to pay, or

2) that the USGovt simply ban them from doing biz in those countries, or

3) that the USGovt ban doing biz of a certain type, with likely arguments around the edges of that type.

4) or something else that I'm missing.

Which are you proposing?
As a client, I love working with them. I never thought I'd say that about a payment processor.

I get pitched lower rates by their competitors all the time, but their software sucks. Giving a refund on Authorize.net feels like I'm being forced to travel back to the 1990s web.

Stripe's site is intuitive, their rates are good, they integrate easily with every software I use and their customer service speaks to me like humans. (Plus they have patio11)
Can confirm. I feel like every time a 10 year old develops a best selling ios app my parents tell me and then ask why I’m not a millionaire yet.
Large airports have fancy lighting schemes and are pretty obvious in good weather.

Small airports or bad weather at night are a different story - I would not fly into a new airport the first time in those conditions. Think 10x - 100x the risk.

Binoculars might be ok for the non-flying pilot to use, as long as he doesn't drop them on the floor and bind any rudder pedals.
Mind sharing what app that was or what it was about?
Not yet. Maybe there should be. ;)

With Google, it seems pretty fair to consider them a Monopoly in several areas. They also appear to be well down the path to abusing their Monopoly(ies?).

Isn't that generally where regulators should become involved?
And that's the problem. The world's information cannot be in one place, and mediawiki is made to look like it's 'for information' when in reality it's for Wikipedia. It has intentions to be extensible but fails to follow through, and this is incredibly misleading.
I agree writing login, forgot password, two-factor auth, change password is a huge time suck. My fear of using a 3rd party such as Auth0 for such a critical part of your application is vendor dependency. I've been bitten badly by 3rd party companies shutting down, being acquired, or abandoned.
> It's completely unfair, as it robs desperate people of a reality check.

How is writing an article unfair? How exactly does it rob anyone of anything? What possible reality check is given by not having this article?

Every single business is unique and everyone's situation is different. There's no shortcut other than just doing it, and there's always plenty to learn from every story, including this one. Failure is part of the game, and I'd much rather have people be inspired to attempt it, and have a few succeed, than nobody try at all.
That seems like only half of the story. Earlier in that thread, there's this quote from lenovo: "
Due to "DPTF" function will act on Windows system by BIOS/Driver support, the system will turn to cool mode when keep high temperature several minutes.
But Linux system didn't have driver support DPTF function, it only have TDP limit on platform.
So user should have different between Windows and Linux system as normal behavior."

So lenovo is doing something conservative because DPTF isn't officially supported on linux. There seems to be a DPTF repo here: https://github.com/intel/dptf
Their mountains keep moving around. ;-)
I agree that some level of government is absolutely essential, and you're right, bad actors would do even more damage than they already do. I don't think it's clear what that level is (Libertarian vs. Socialist), but I'm skeptical we can have a reasonable discussion about it until we reduce financial influence in politics.

The lack of trust is due to the image of politicians shaking hands and benefiting from corporate spend (Citizens United etc.). Significantly reduce that influence and work towards earning the trust of the people back. The whole "Drain the Swamp" con got a lot of votes.

On it's face, the situation is obviously ridiculous isn't it?

1. Politicians need large sums of money to win elections (problem #1).

2. Corporations and wealthy individuals are allowed to provide that money (problem #2).

3. We expect politicians to police their donors (obvious conflict).

When there's riches (and power... but that's unavoidable) involved you end up with more opportunists than idealists.

RADIUS support is a well known issue. In my case it works better with some Apple hardware than others. Conversely, the Cisco gear at megacorp has never given me any authentication problems.

> Hire somebody.

This is easier said than done, even if they're convinced it's worth the money.

Not only are startup founders faced with the usual problems associated with hiring competent technical people (ironically a problem the OP is attempting to help), but this would be hiring someone whose competence they'd be much less qualified to evaluate.

This effect can be seen in "DevOps" (as a title) postings from startups that emphasize Dev (programming against a cloud API and/or "automate everything!"). That kind of redefinition is much harder to do convincingly for office IT.
By the way, I've got a question to programming language engineers and people keeping track of emerging and experimental languages: is there a language where everything (or almost everything, excluding elementary types and structs perhaps) is an "actor" and every class method call is an asynchronous message passing? Together with an idea of a heavily-memoized language (which Skip is meant to be an implementation of) this idea won't leave my mind for years since I've first learnt about the actor model.
Many more died along the way.

Have you had any issues with the auto updater? I got rid of my Omnia after an auto-update broke DNS while I was away from home.

Ironically, went to Unifi after reading Troy's blogs about it - now regretting it immensely as the hardware is nowhere near as powerful as the Omnia.
I think the point is that it’s like writing articles lauding winners of 9-digit lotteries. The odds are not dissimilar, and it does no favors to people who are put under the impression that it’s a wise course to pursue.
They would need to be electrically connected. Are you going to run wires between them?
On one hand I wonder if money should really be apportioned to people who’d sell their user base to FB, like, will they make the best decisions down the road? Another part of me thinks well, better the money in a good person’s hands than FB’s. But you have to assume Acton et al are truly better people than FB, and still the user base is offered up as a sacrifice to that. Doesn’t feel great to me.

This is a false argument. Wendy's will not hire a SysAdmin who is out of work and needs to feed his family.

>And let's not speak of the chronically overheating stuff.

Some-time wireless installer here, I bring a snippet of anecdata.

A recent client had the full Unifi experience for an outdoor network, including 3x EdgeSwitch XP (formerly known as ToughSwitch) in a single IP65-rated, largely airtight enclosure.

The network would go offline on summer afternoons. It was overheating, those models run hot and are not recommended for low ventilation areas, but they weren't convinced.

I fitted a thermometer, went back three days later and checked the logs. The temperature peaked at 143 Celsius.
