How is it different from other German universities and institutes?
I like the idea. It's basically an encapsulated portable personal "wiki" for a user (persona) with an open data model that can be accessed by external apps based on permissions.

What it doesn't solve is the problem how this data is going to be used by those who access it. I wish there was some kind of digital contracts that only allow using personal data in a way permitted by the user.
I think that's what "Tools > Create filtered deck" is for. Assuming the cards are appropriately tagged, "tag:hsk5" should be enough.

For more complex operations Anki doesn't support directly, I usually just export as text instead of dealing with the database directly.
This situation is exasperated by the "everyone deserves to go to university" concept.

Taking the sub-105 IQ set and putting them situations where they are not capable of competing winds up creating unhappiness all around. No doubt some of that dynamic fosters a bullying mindset in professors.
That's rude and that's not it, it's the fact that google knows which SO questions are relevant.
I like how none of the events called out on the chart had any noticeable effect.
C7 Gray Metallic Comparison – Compared Right Here – Vetteblog.com
You’re talking nonsense. There have been hardening guides for macOS for ages. Linux too.

In reality, security is a sliding scale between “everything is root and there’s no password lmao” and “so secure it’s impossible to actually do anything useful”. Different risk levels are appropriate for different users in different situations. For example, this guide talks about turning off a bunch of features that I use a lot - like continuity and handoff between iOS and macOS. These features might feasibly be a security burden—as in, they might increase the attack area, despite having no known vulnerabilities—but in exchange they improve usability.

I can’t reasonably agree that this is some kind of indication of failure. MacOS is a consumer operating system; it seems like the security it offers is generally reasonably optimised for that role.
Having "polyvalent" as the first word of your personal statement is going to throw people off. It's a very uncommon word in English (outside of scientific terminology), and it doesn't really mean what you want it to mean.
Meh. DuckDuckGo's modest success has nothing to do with Perl. It could've been done in PHP just fine.
Yes, I think it is honey.

You are right that it isn't that much effort to try it. I find it annoying because they never seem to work for me. In a world where our behavior is closely tracked, I have come to wonder if the coupons don't work for me because some algorithm has figured out that I don't care.

Which actually takes things full circle from the original comment I was responding to: I wonder if online coupons are now so sophisticated that they can _only_ be offered to the price sensitive. If so, I suspect even more strongly that they are still a good/relevant marketing strategy.
The bangs I use most often are !az and !w

For a long time I used !img a lot, but they've incorporated native image search so I use it less.

I never used !g much, (not counting !img), but I can't remember the last time I used it.

Yes they do. I didn't mean to imply that they are useless.

Evolutionary algorithms and swarm optimization algorithms are the next step above brute force and random search. In the space of optimization algorithms are below everything else.

Usually they are the last option. Using them to locate software defects means that you have no special insight into software defects but you hope to generate something better than random.

Same thing happened to me with lyft last week in Orlando. Not only did the driver take the longest route but never ended the fare.

https://photos.app.goo.gl/mPZayvcX93CvnZ1fA

Was actually dropped off on the left. Lyft was really fast about correcting it and giving credit.

Lesson here is make sure you have an idea what the fare should cost.
One of my sources was this guide, it's great.
That link is blue (similar to hyperlink) but it doesn't have Terms & Conditions or other text that defines a legal agreement. Unclear what is being asked or agreed.
It says Amazon scans the code before shipping - presumably it would be a red flag if the scan says the product was already sold.

I'm talking about the hundreds of thousands of years we spent as tribes of hunter gatherers. We still carry much of the social needs and behaviors formed in that landscape.
It’s ironic to see a guide to securing anything recommend using plaintext MITM-able DNS rather than instructing users to build and configure a safe DNS-over-HTTPS resolver to the exact same IPs.
It was developed in the open, with regular updates here. Probably many here feel part of it somehow, and trust Weinberg because of that virtual relationship.

Of course one doesn't know, Weinberg might secretly be one of the lizard people, co-opted by a TLA to covertly monitor search ... probably in order to quash evidence of alien sightings.

Joking aside, you're right to be skeptical.

Can you expand on the actual mechanism of how going public in the US helps one funnel money out of China?

The way I understand it, going public gives you liquidity, but I don't fully understand how this is a method of getting money out in a subversive way.

At least, DDG themselves recommend it.
It's been a truism in security that the less usable you make your systems, the more your users will work around it, thereby defeating the security. E.g. passwords written stickies to defeat password expiration rules.

There's a sweet spot for security for the average user, where it's secure but usable enough that the user doesn't attempt to defeat it. For users who are willing to put up with less usable systems, more security can be had.
In France we have a software vendor called MailInBlack.

Their solution is exactly the one proposed in this article, where the sender has to solve a “challenge” to get in your mailbox.

If I think this approach is really effective, it also creates a huge pain for a lot of tools relying on emails such as WebEx invites or when you want to contact someone for sales.

As a result I think that this approach might be better if it was for instance triggered only on emails with an “Unsubscribe” link, or on emails with specific keywords.

In Zsh, it will set the editing mode to whatever your $EDITOR is set to. So if $EDITOR == vim, readline will be set to vim mode.

I’m a vim person, but I feel like the modal workflow does not work well at all in a shell.
Similar to other commenters, I have chosen not to apply to positions and companies where I have a moral/ethical objections.
Yeah, I can't remember the exact numbers being thrown around at the time, but it was in the many trillions of dollars of derivatives that had been created. If you replace the word "derivatives" with "bets", you get a better understanding of how far astray Wall Street has led us. The fact that these "bets" jeopardized the health and wellbeing of millions of people around the globe is direct evidence that regulators and central bankers were either inept, corrupt, or both.
The headline is factually incorrect. The biggest maker of eScooters in China is Jiangsu Aima Manufacturing.

NIU is not even third or fourth.
This also only works until it’s a popular method and spammers automate a solution.
I don't think he meant "failure" so much but rather criticise the fact that operating systems sometimes deliver not-the-greatest defaults. To be fair, macOS has a very strong default set, this just takes it the extra mile.
Yeah :(. I just finished browsing the page and unfortunately, there's surprisingly little technical details about anything. Oh, you can build a client app with Angular. Cool. I'd much prefer to know how it all works.
I think it wasn't so much a proof as it was an image that made you realize the proof with some thought. Still, that's about what all published proofs are in the end, isn't it?
This is great, but does anyone have a good in-depth reference for administering MacOS systems? I constantly have difficulties doing in-depth analysis and administration of MacOS systems, and that's really only because I just don't know where to go for good information.
Why would Amazon even receive them into inventory if the initial scan says the product was already sold (assuming that a product must be purchased to get a valid code to copy)?
How long did it take you to learn ? And can you really beat the index funds, as a layman investor, and how big is the difference ?

I've also found that DuckDuckGo's search cards are just more reliably correct.

An example I ran into a few days ago: As it turns out there are two "Brent Lee's" in music. This one [0] and this one [1]. If you search Brent Lee on duckduckgo you get the first in the card. If you search Brent Lee on google you get a card that appears to be about one person but includes a mix of information about the first and the second.

I actually do get it for "duckduckgo bang". Maybe they're hotfixing it, or maybe some self-learning algorithm decided that this was close enough to "duckduckgo bangs"? Shooting in the dark here.
I don’t think so, but it’s not an area I’m always the most up to date with. I’m guessing if it existed I’d have heard of it, though.

“Amethyst” and “piston” are the two engine projects. I’m not sure if studios are using them or I’d they're building something in-house.
And then tell Uber why you left a 1 Star when it asks. Why more people don’t report bad drivers, I don’t know.
Am I so weird that I don't have problem with my e-mail box? I don't receive spam (gmail, but recently all mail providers got really great at it and even if I do receive some spam is quite sporadic). I don't receive newsletters because (shock!) I don't sign-up for them (and even if I do once every blue moon I immediately click 'unsubscribe').

Yes, there is some small problem of having older messages "waiting for the right time" but this is not the problem of the e-mail itself but rather mental block to dedicate 1-3h to write response (you would spend same amount of time writing regular mail).
Most “scooters” in china are more like peddled scooters. Most people go to and from a short distance. Under 48v maybe 15Ah. That’s giving you about 30km or under real range. Most bikes use lead acid and are heavy as anything to carry around. Most goto the shops which is downstairs and maybe 10-20km max a day if at all on their bikes. The ones that need further might buy a lithium battery. But then there’s the cost, cheap scooter 1399rmb expensive lithium scooter 3000-6000. The niu is a Bosch motor. So nothing unique or engineered about it. It’s some oem with plastic and an app developer. They’re light. They’re basic. They’re cheap. Now go sit on a Yamaha 110 scooter. Or 125 scooter. Those are built well. They run nice and they’re great fun. All Yamaha needs to do is take an electric motor (easy) and place that with a locally sourced (Panasonic, Sanyo, Sony) battery and boom. Niu useless and the app became even more so. If anything. Indian made bikes are the only thing that could compete with Yamaha and Honda. There’s some real innovation coming out of there. I can’t remember the name of one bike. But it had an in built lcd panel that was actually useful with inbuilt maps, a super charging network, custom designed motor and a aluminium milled body. Really neat stuff. India is coming!
Thank you. Well I'm playing the devil's advocate there. To me Facebook has always looked very untrustworthy. They have a very bad habit of mishandling users' data and manipulating public opinion. Nevertheless I believe in editorial fredom of private websites.
I really would like to support this, but I seem to miss the big picture. Looking at the github repos, Solid appears to be mostly about giving a second life to TBL's and W3c's failed pet projects, notably semantic web, linked data, RDF, SPARQL, JSON-LD.
I have no idea what of what you wrote could come across as defending Nazi. None of it sounds like defense at all (neither soldier farmers nor origin of word nor us media). I am not from US and had little access to postwar US media. Instead I read multiple books written by Historians about WWII, Germany and Hitler. I am not sure what does origin of the term Holocaust have to use with the thread. We can use Shoah and will not change a thing.

The wehrmacht was national army with long tradition. They took over most of Europe including significant part of Russian territory. Not clueless farmers and clueless farmers were not in leadership. Moreover, Germany was preparing for war for years and that included school system trying to help raise soldier material. As for bicycles, bicycles don't require gas which is why popularity among both army and civilians. Add to it restrictions imposed on German army by WWI victors (which Germans broke, but had to be careful not to do it too openly) and it all becomes logical.

Polish army was still using primary horses and did not anticipated modern war. Germans actually came with better technology.

Lastly, the idea that bad things started with war and later Holocaust is not correct. The state performed repressions of political opposition and violent social control started at earliest, the moment nazi took power. Plans were ready in advance. The nazi themselves were like that even before they took state power into control and violence etc played role already during democratic state, including during elections.
They only mention Tika and Kafka, both I believe are written/using Java. I think the next article is supposed to give more details, I am looking forward to that.
Modern technology is also completely dependent on stable society of individuals working together in mostly amicable fashion.
> invest the energy of their own employees into determining what is fake and what isn't

That is how most stores operate.
Right, but of course without ads they would save some cost as they wouldn't need people to sell ads, they could get rid of a bunch of ads-related overhead costs etc.

If the operating margin on the ads part of the business is less than ~25%, then they could break even without ads. Of course, breaking even is worse than making 35MM profit each year.
If you can't invest in a studie it also helps a lot to skip searching how to do things in a specific language. You are much better off by searching for solutions. For example: 'how to create modular programs' will give you more valuable results than 'how to create a website in PHP'.

Things like dependency injection work the same in most languages so it's more helpfull to understand what it solves than how to solve it in language [x]

Those permissions are necessary for any blocker to perform its function. And while the threat models for blockers and vpns are different, I agree that I would trust a local blocker [threat: extension hijack via auto-update; mitigation: very public source and update policy] much more than I would trust any third party vpn [threat: their 'no logging' policy is insufficient or they don't honor it; mitigation: 'we promise, mmkay?']

A self-hosted vpn would be better, but has its own problems [threats: you're uniquely identifiable by your vpn ip, you don't update fast enough to avoid security breaches, you don't configure it correctly and expose yourself to additional security breaches]. Given the difficulty of hosting and managing your own vpn infrastructure I couldn't recommend it for almost anyone.
I found these articles from the Mozilla blog to be very helpful: https://hacks.mozilla.org/category/es6-in-depth/

I didn’t berate you. Of course I made assumptions. I specifically said so. Where I did make assumptions I mentioned that this was a guess on my part. From my reading of what you wrote your assumptions are embedded winthin your assertions without any acknowledgement that this is what you are doing. There’s a difference.

> You really think this?
I've worked in academia within the US and outside of. So, yes I think this.

You didn’t understand what my rhetorical question was about. It was asking if you really think the whole rest of the world hasn’t sold out. There are lots of examples of people selling out outside of academia and even within European academia.

I’m not seeking to change your mind. You have what appears to be a rigid view on how American faculty view textbooks. I suggest that your view is based on limited experience - as is mine - and that others reading this exchange consider that topics concerning something as large as the number of faculty and departments in the U.S. generally can’t be reduced to, “It’s because of (insert simple observation).”

Your comment about unions shows you really don’t understand the issues that affect a large portion of the American academy. For one thing over 50% of courses are taught by adjuncts, and instructors whose employment is at the whim of administration. They are not in a position to withstand administrative pressures. Unions have nowhere near the pricing power on labor you seem to believe.

Generally decisions are made by individuals who are not any more or less moral than others. Decisions get made because of forces at play. Such is my opinion.

While I don’t like the tone of your posts and don’t agree with many of your assertions let me end by saying that I agree with the goal. Our goals appear aligned. I never use paid materials in my courses.

Entirely possible. Yet, this is what Apple presented in 2014:

Jessica Mallet from Apple, Inc. gave a presentation on how Apple uses SolrCloud. She briefly outlined some terms and concepts and then dug into how Apple built a multi-tenant search platform with each cluster holding around one million logical indexes. She also explained how their automation tool SolrLord uses alarms to trigger several events and can fix issues without any human interaction.

I wouldn’t write off China in any industry. Due to legislation and economics of car ownership there are cities where 90 % of the traffic is electric scooters. There is a lot of expertise in building them. In addition Chinese are very keen adopters of mobile tech, although I agree in this case it seems gimmicky
I'm with Strunk & White.
Here's another question for your repertoire (that I picked up from someone else): "What's been keeping you busy lately?"
I do not. Geocities was a miserable collection of weird text that was almost completely unusable. FTP and IRC were great for the people who used them, but the community was small and still exists.

For all the people lamenting the loss of the old internet, most of it is still there(irc,ftp,rss,ncurses email clients) -- you can still use it. You should probably ask yourself why you aren't.
It saw some usage in Rdio (the music streaming service) and a couple of other places. chef.io wanted to switch to Leptus back then, but I don't know if they did.
I brought it back to life for personal use, and also because I was still receiving requests to do so.

The solution is the federal government seizing every one of Amazon's warehouses for knowingly trafficking counterfeit goods across state lines. But that won't happen because Bezos has wisely entrenched himself in Washington DC and Amazon is thus protected from laws that would shut down smaller competitors
Nice. However the biggest limitation (which is no fault of this app) is that the gestures simply trigger commands upon their completion, with no intermediate feedback. What would it take to implement animations that follow gestures in progress like how macOS's change workspace animation continuously tracks one's fingers during the swipe?
The only issue with that from my limited knowledge of the generics industry is that it doesn't account for legal spend by generics firms. The patent wars are waged in courtrooms by generics firms fighting branded firms. The big generics firms have massive legal budgets and expertise on all the arcana of patent law.

You could certainly try to make a small scale manufacturing firm to sell some expensive generics drugs at cost, and that could be a good idea (some hospitals are doing it), but these types of firms would probably not be able to develop "first inclass" generics without legal and administrative expertise

Until the last few years, you really wanted to be the first genetic. These first generics get 180 days of market exclusivity I think as an incentive to do all the grunt work of challenging patents. If you were later to market it was really hard to make money

Which has led to a situation where some generics markets have found themselves with only a few generics makers. These manufacturers have realized it and have been increasing price. So a co-op could be viable for markets like this. But you would need to do some r&d work for each generic you develop to show it is bioequivalent and get your manufacturing facility registered with fda, etc

However I don't think it accounts for much of the higher per capita rx drug spend in the US (unfortunately can't find source)
