These work great if you don't want to have any support. You just have to make sure you don't move around too much or make any sudden movements of your torso because they'll come unstuck. Also, you can't sweat. And don't have sensitive skin, because there's nothing worse than itchy nipples in public. And that's to say nothing about the hassles of cleaning, storing, and reusing them.

Those Amazon reviews are probably fake.
Stress eats holes in your brain
Is inspiration the designer's paid break?
My point was that the only useful options are “an opt-out telemetry system” and “no telemetry system.” An opt-in telemetry system is wasted effort from the point of view of gathering results with statistical power.

And no, the people who want opt-out would not generally opt in in an opt-in system. That'd be their preference, yes, but you’re underestimating people’s laziness in practice. There are things I’d grant telemetry access to, but I don’t know how and don’t have time in the day to learn how, especially since it grants very little advantage to me personally.
CVE:Proxy request handling in kube-apiserver can leave vulnerabl TCP connections
Yes. But I spend no less than £400 on a pair of shoes. The shoes will last me decades with proper maintenance and repairs. This doesn't seem strange to me as long as the bras last a very long time.

If they don't last a long time, or if the bra size changes too often, then it is ridiculous, though.

I'm not saying wrongdoing is fair game (obviously) or that laws are pointless. They just don't work for everything.

Laws' side effects can be as important as the straightforward intention. For example, the gdpr reporting requirements for data leaks is a good idea. It's nice that people can know data about them has leaked, but the bigger reason is the side effect... the transparency will improve security.

The side effect of consent/permission requirement is an army is of compliance lawyer and vendors. They make newspapers compliant by tweaking paperwork, popups and such... not by actually doing anything that improves privacy.

If it was from Samsung. This could have come down to a single decision by a very low-level person, or likely a contractor. Samsung's marketing execs dropped the ball in not supervising the campaign properly, but I'm not ready to fault Samsung generally because of a dozen poorly-managed publicity shots.

Instead, I judge them by how they react to this mistake. Do they pull the photos or not?
a) your article shows that there is a disclaimer on the ads about external equipment and shows a picture that it is possible to mount crazy lenses on a phone, but you are left to connect the dots yourself.

b) there is a categorical difference between using a different camera and presenting it as if it came from the phone and using external equipment to supplement the phone.
This entire thread is specifically about the NYC metro area. My reply was about Jersey City and Hoboken, which are directly across the river from Manhattan. The apartments I'm describing are literally only 1 to 3 miles from Manhattan, hence the short commutes I also mentioned. I really don't see why my reply would be interpreted as tongue-in-cheek.
I only freak out, when I read horrible comments - which is an unfortunate part of the youtube experience.
Microsoft Introduces Cloud Native Application Bundles
I see it a bit differently.

To me it looks like CNAB invents a new way of describing and deploying an application that looks nothing like a Kubernetes API while Crossplane is trying to use the existing Kubernetes API tooling to interoperate with and leverage that ecosystem.

Just because you are using a Kubernetes API doesn't mean you are presuming a Kubernetes cluster IMHO. The work being done with virtual kubelet[1] illustrates that.

So, I guess I am confused. You have users that want to package their app in containers, and run those containers. However, those users don't want to use Kubernetes APIs to do it? Why?

[1] https://github.com/virtual-kubelet/virtual-kubelet
This is something I've thought about and worked on over the last several years. I'm more than happy to have an in-depth conversation on it if anyone is interested.
1. Not enough time to use the actual phones to take photos and then create final print materials.

2. Maybe some tops don't trust enough that the phone cameras are good and want to make a less risky bet.
I was in Berlin exactly a year ago, and it is indeed unberable. Think bars so filled with smoke you can't see all the way across the room. Smoking outside just wasn't a thing, and it was in the 30s when I was there, so while there is in general a good outdoor drinking culture where you can avoid it for much of the year, in the winter you just can't.

I had to leave some places because it was so unbearable.
I was thinking the same thing. I'm not convinced in today's Trumpian times minorities are accepted- especially down South.

Maybe this will help. True story.

I just moved into my rented house and discovered the CCTV outside my front door, in public view, but also on my property, is actually monitored by the landlord, not me.

Saildrone

Saildrone designs and manufactures wind and solar-powered autonomous surface vehicles called Saildrones, which make cost-effective ocean data collection possible at scale. We are building the world's largest high-resolution ocean datasets, working with governments and private companies around the globe. We believe that better inputs in planetary models in turn yield better outputs and that the new insights gained in weather forecasting, carbon cycling, global fishing and climate change will have a tremendous impact on humanity.

Saildrone's patented wing technology was born from 10 years of R&D in pursuit of the land speed record.
The company is headquartered in Alameda, California and is backed by Horizons Ventures, Social Capital, Lux Capital, The Capricorn Investment Group, Exor Seeds and The Schmidt Family Foundation.

neuroscience is physiological, but it deals with the study of neurons and neuronal systems rather than the output of behaviors. I always thought neurology was more of a medical field application of neuroscience.
Google Flutter can now compile to web (project Hummingbird)
Chattanooga is also a reasonable day trip. Panama City Beach or Pensacola Beach is 7 hours away--good for a long weekend trip. Plenty of freshwater recreation thanks to the aforementioned TVA's hydropower/flood-control dams. Karst, if you like spelunking.

The cost of the ticket is basically one's ability to acquire and retain at least a "Secret" federal security clearance.

The political scene sucks. The corruption is as bad as Illinois, except red instead of blue. As the tech community tends to lean liberal vs. libertarian, by my assessment, no matter which side of that you think you're on, you will be frustrated and dismayed by overwhelmingly (religious) conservative politics in Alabama. The federal districts are gerrymandered to pack one district and crack everywhere else, and the state and local lines are drawn almost as badly. Be prepared to work with smug Trump supporters, and to hide your political beliefs from your workplace. That "blue wave" from the midterms didn't even wash over anyone's toenails. Every ballot is at least 40% uncontested races.

But the money is good, and it spends easily. If I went to SF or NYC, I'm sure I'd be just as frustrated by the dirty hippies, scarf-and-peacoat hipsters, and money-grubbers as I currently am by the Bible-thumpers and armchair quarterbacks. There may not be anywhere in the US that I wouldn't be surrounded by howling yard-apes--of one tribe, or another--that always seem to pontificate more often than they ponder.
I imagine this would look a lot like the IPv4 security flag or the do not track header in practice.

I think if one of your classmates has a lot of different skins and plays the game for a long time most days you would likely be inclined to try and match what they have and do in the game if you want to continue to be part of this social circle. This is probably even more pronounced today than it was 5-10 years ago, because now there are youtubers and twitch streamers who can spend 4-12 hours every day playing the game and they have massive incomes to spend on virtual items.
I also alternate between a panoptic nightmarish future vision, and the fear of becoming an obsolete species.
Samsung must have a nice view from somewhere within walking distance of one of their buildings. How hard could it be to have the intern go snap some pictures. Perhaps hundreds of pictures and then choose the best.
A whole lot more goes into it than this, but a big part of what you're talking about has to do with price anchoring. (Which is in itself a subset of anchoring[0], as theorized by Daniel Kahneman).

... self reporting data leaks is "the good part" of gdpr that I mentioned in my caveat. :) I think that's important, effective and in bureaucratic.

The attempt to increase formal contract making between website and user... that's the part I find frustrating.
This is a reaction I see a lot (and used to be tempted to have as well), but it is imo a mistake, grounded in the fact that we tend to think of companies as individuals whom once they've betrayed us, are likely to do so again.

Companies like Samsung, while they claim to have a "culture" are, at the end of the day nothing but a large group of ever changing people, whose responsibilities in what the company does is quite often nil even when they are the one making them on the company' behalf.

We can't deal with companies with tools nature equipped us with to deal with other humans.
I think it's pretty accessible? Not sure what you had trouble understanding.

Though I think it would be better without all the stuff about psychedelics. It makes people doubt the whole thing.
Absolutely. I am old enough to remember working on monochrome monitors with green or yellow text on a black background, and the associated eyestrain was torture for me. It was a glorious day when I installed my first color monitor and was finally able to read black text on a white background.
I agree on a lot of your points. However, I would say Memphis does have a lot to do if you know where to look.

Nashville might be solid blue, but the politics of the state is ran by it's suburbs. The worst republicans imaginable live in Franklin and Murfreesboro. And you can not avoid them if you live and work in Nashville. To make matters worst, the corporate democrats in Nashville just rubber stamp everything the republican's do as long as it benefits Nashville. I managed to last two years in Nashville. The culture is sick.
This is great. I have never seen this posted before on HN so I did a search and saw these have been put together sporadically for at least the last three years with seemingly little engagement. I wonder why that is. These posts highlight some of the best things about this website/community. I would love to see them more often or have them receive more promotion.
behavioral psychology is NOT neuroscience
behavioral neuroscience is different than behavioral psychology
It seems like you would still use both. Terraform to provision your Kubernetes cluster and other non-application specific infrastructure.

It seems like, and I have only briefly read the article, Crossplane is meant to bring all that application specific cloud infrastructure into the same configuration files you would use for defining you Kubernetes application.

So along with defining your ingress you define your mysql database and it gets provisioned. This keeps all your application specific provisioning together instead of having to use Terraform to provision your database ahead of time and keep it in sync with the application.
Am I the only one who always accepts these kind of "help improve the product" things? I want to help improve the product.
You launched an app, I think you could get a job as a junior programmer (heck, you're ahead of most) :)

> employees are forced to lend the company thousands of dollars at 0% interest

This may be technically true, but in practice people charge things to their credit cards and don't actually pay the expenses until a month later anyway. And my company reimburses me within a few days, I always assumed that was normal.
Email isn't really a publishing tool however. It's apples and oranges. If the pedos on Tumblr were DMing each other with the pics (Tumbler has DMs right?) then Apple wouldn't have known about it and shut them down.

That said, if they aren't actually hosting any of the content they probably won't run into the same problem Tumblr did. They will be able to pin the blame on third party servers. The app store still has a Tor client for example, because the Tor project doesn't host any user editable content. It's when someone loads a CP image from movim.eu that they get in trouble.
Based on what cesarb said, that's a problem with the build system.
This appears to be speculation that Apple is doing this, without any evidence.
They previewed Project Hummingbird to do just that:

Even worse: "<model number> manual". I don't google that because I like reading manuals in general.
The US produces ~13% and consumes ~20%. Given that marginal amounts change pricing drastically, there's really no one who could change the market against the wishes of the US. The wishes of the US are to kill us all with this cheap crude.

Thinking about the value of my time as (atleast) $50/hr. On average if I waste 20 hours per week, I lose $50000 per year. Which stops me from wasting it, and being mindful about it.
It seems sufficient to write off any trust you might have in that brand's name on account of the name only. That is, if Samsung's governance can't keep its employees or subsidiaries from lying with its name attached in the past, there's no reason to think they'd be able to do it in the future. This also incentivizes Samsung to police its underlings.

Of course, you might have other reasons to like Samsung's stuff (reviews, prior experience), and you might also be stuck trusting no one because all large companies have similar issues (so you're forced to buy from untrusted brands).
I suspect (but don't know) that $100 at VS buys you some confidence/entitlement that it's okay to return if you don't like it, in a VERY different way than $30 at Target, which has much more of a "returning used undergarmets, REALLY?" vibe.
Went to use Vault for Enterprise and heard we got an invoice for half a million dollars. Went with another solution.
For anyone curious in esoteric formats, check out some of the documentation for financial data providers.

CRSP[1] is pretty much regarded as the highest quality pricing data in the US, with stock prices going back to 1925. The database API is written for C and FORTRAN-95.

Data providers also have a habit of providing their own proprietary security IDs, or just mapping to tickers. So if you're trying to build a database with several providers, you have to wrangle together 15 different security identifiers, taking care of mergers/acquisitions, delistings, ticker recycling, etc. It is a fun exercise.

That's modern development for you. Shipping a copy of Skia so you can render exact facsimiles of Android widgets to a Vulkan context and avoid having Android render Android widgets with Skia to a Vulkan context.

A full Chrome copy for your desktop app is whatever, we have the resources, but on smartphones this is actively harmful. It bypasses the hardware compositors. Displaying a video, they have to render that to a graphics texture; on many smartphones, the IP that is doing hardware video decoding has nothing to do with the GPU and they might very well not use the same formats, requiring CPU conversion (if it's at all possible).
That's an interesting take, most people I know find that Fortnite is a much better alternative than let's say 90% of apps that are aimed at children that are literal gambling simulators. In Fortnite you get what you pay for, no BS. No pay-to-win power ups, just cosmetic items that are fairly high quality and often referencing the hottest memes at the moment. Even the seasonal battlepass can be quite fair with rewards.

If you want to see a game that actively preys on the young you should look into Fifa Ultimate team. It forces you to spend hundreds of dollars opening packs of cards like in hearthstone but in the end of the day all of it goes down the drain because it doesn't carry over to next year's game. This is so absurdly predatory and they keep making it a heavier focus for the game every year.

> BTW, I never store anything which makes me uncomfortable, anywhere incl. my brain. That's a much better way of living. Not that privacy conscious people is hiding something, but that's my policy.

That is a better way of living, but it’s a harder choice for a lot of people.

With recent political trends towards the far right, it could become a harder choice for even more.
Where is it? There are areas of NYC and Los Angeles where you will find new cafes/restaurants/bars/clubs/shops on every block. You can set out walking a direction into the unknown and have a pretty decent night, knowing you will run into these attractions in every nook, not just the main drags, and despite living there for years you can discover new places every single day. In Nashville, would I have to uber around to disconnected, well known hotspots? How long until I know of every bar in Nashville that has people in it on a Friday night? I want to be able to constantly discover in my own city, not just when I go on trips out of town.
In this age of free to play games, why not? The amazon way.
Fact Labs | Founding Engineer | San Francisco and New York (NYC) | Onsite or Remote (US only) | Full Time

Building models in spreadsheets is broken. Spreadsheet models break down when you alter them, modularize them, or add more collaborators. Analysts in banking, investment management, and operations have gotten by with spreadsheets but not without enormous time and effort spent hacking around their many limitations. Fact Labs has developed a more powerful, more collaborative modeling paradigm that is inspired by logic programming and applied ontology yet is still accessible to sophisticated but non-programmer analysts. We are a small, funded, early-stage team with significant domain experience with our target customers. The team previously worked together on a distributed search and data management startup and sold the company a few years back.

What we are looking for:

Fast, deliberate learners eager to translate concept into practice OR experienced hands ready to take significant design ownership

Strong computer science fundamentals, including algorithms and data structures

Experience with one of the following through professional, academic, or personal work:

- Database design and implementation (query processing/planning, database/storage engines)

- Language design and implementation (parser generators, interpreters, virtual machines, compilers)

- Logic programming (Prolog, Datalog, SAT/SMT solvers, etc.)

- Optimization (constraint satisfaction, combinatorial optimization, linear programming, etc.)

Language experience: C / Rust

Self-starting attitude with strong communication skills (especially written)

The modeling experience we’re building is unlike anything out there. If you believe that spreadsheets are not the last word in end-user programming, reach out to us (stephen [at] fac.tt) and tell us a little about yourself (bio, resume, or LinkedIn). We’d love to hear from you and show you what we’ve been up to!

He currently doesn't care about the comments but most comments are quite offensive. I see him alone, in his room, preparing for a video, rehearsing his speech, and having multiple takes and revisions. Kind of very weird. He comes up with like `papa, i need photopolymer, darkening toner,glue.. because i want to do xx.` . Of course he's pissed off when he hears, as a child he can't touch chemicals.
