It's not objectifying, it's stereotypising with the most werid stuff you can find.

Yeah you could find people riding on horse-drawn carts in Poland in 80s. 1 for every 100 cars or more. Now count cars and horses on these photos :)
I always thought the purported advantage of SGX was being able to run important bits of code with ensured integrity, using attestation, even on an unsecure machine. If you ran a whole database in SGX or TrustZone, you just open yourself up to traditional security vulnerabilities alongside the usual side channel attacks you can do against them.

Iirc you could dial into AOL and then pop open a browser. I may have a bad recollection though
It's way easier for a beginner to crash on a snowboard than on skis. The difference is that it's way easier to crash really hard on skis than it is on a board.

Once you catch an edge or slide out on a board, you're on the ground. I've seen skiers fall back on to their skis and rocket down the hill uncontrolled.
Did you have to specifically sequence your and your father's DNA at 23andme for that?
It'd be great to see some enterprise, be it another tech company or private investors, swoop in and maybe rescue a few properties since Verizon views them as worthless. With the right vision and leadership I still think some of these could be real assets.
Pinterest has an issue with their support. I was using it for a while to gather inspiration on a particular subject. It just started crashing with a server side error message. I submitted a bug report and the response was lame. I kept saying look at your own server side error message. You must have logs to look at. I don't think a human saw my bug responses. Now I don't use it at all.
Wasn't owning the means of production more about not being exploited for your labour, rather than about owning what was produced?

Seems to me we're moving towards a society where people are exploited not just for the labour, but their very existence. You live to pay rents and subscriptions.
Plants have a 50x range in the amount of calories they provide per unit of resources. Grains, starches, and legumes are generally less resource intensive than meat. But most meats are less resource intensive than leafy greens and fruits.

If you want to lessen the environmental impact of your diet, then you need to optimize cost, not simply exclude animal flesh.

Interesting, apparently because misdemeanor is the lowest possible category. Most places classify it as an “infraction” which is a step below a misdemeanor.

I bet that has caused some unfortunate fuss with people “convicted of a misdemeanor” for a simple speeding ticket trying to explain it in a state where a misdemeanor is something more serious.
In my 2 years of experience, this guy does not represent "the industry".
Nobody knows anything and so many things are in dispute.

Listen to your body. Take up an exercise regiment.

Expanding: we've learned that excess sugar is likely really bad, and a bunch of other stuff. Learn what you do good on. Spend some time doing vigorous exercise (like, panting, sweating, want to lie down and stop type vigorous). After you get used to that, do an elimination diet. Go to lean meats, eggs, green veggies, and water only. Plenty of water. Do that for a few weeks. Notice how your body feels while exercising. Then, spaced out (like a week between each step), re-introduce other foods. Roots, nuts, legumes, dairy, pasta, bread, etc. Try to avoid sugary stuff, but do re-introduce it like everything else.

Most people find that different foods make them literally feel gross or bad, especially during working out. You'll learn what makes you bloat or gain weight. Find the things that don't fit for you, and just leave them mostly out of your future menus.

Vitamins? Protien? Supplements? Same process. Introduce and listen to how you feel. You'll then know more about you than any flawed study will.
It's not that I actually think the company will go bankrupt. It's just I am more concerned about how others will think of my spending, than my own comfort. There are plenty of cultures where this is the case, and people feel uncomfortable indulging in luxury, especially when other people (fellow employees in my case) are not.

I was thinking of a reimbursement policy where there is no per diem, and they'll reimburse all meals and alcohol "within reason" (meaning so long as you indulge less than the VPs), but I just thought about it, and if I had a per diem I would also keep costs low. When others are paying, and you keep costs low, it's kind of signaling that you value them paying enough that you are willing to do the job of picking the most efficient resource allocation, just like they would do for themselves. I think of it as showing goodwill and that you are on the same side. I was raised in a business culture that is more relationship oriented than the US.
If you take a loan against a massive amount of stock, the lender will almost certainly hedge it by buying options, and the option seller will hedge by selling stock.
Looks like a nice paper!

The paper says how to go beyond what is in Boyd, et al., i.e., eigenvalues, eigenvectors, the spectral decomposition, etc. without determinants. Nice!

For that material I would have been tempted just to use the old approach of determinants and the roots of the characteristic polynomial, the Hamilton-Cayley theoem, etc.

Saved the paper! Thx.
One could say that the texts of a religion, such as the Bible in Christianity, do provide a general "moral framework" expected of its adherents. Many religions prescribe some sort of framework like this, as vague or as contradictory as it may be.

The idea of "sin" is huge in Abrahamic religion, so the fact that their texts particularly describe what is "sinful and not" I think is a clear-cut sign there is some sort of set of "values" that religious adherents are expected to have.

Not that I agree with said frameworks or give any authority to the texts- and also understand that many forms of these religions interpret the texts different ways, which cause various splits in what is considered moral or not. Additionally, I understand that it is mostly futile to expect most religious people to follow the prescribed morals of their religion or denomination, as it always seems to end up that people have their own specific personal set of morals, and then they just try to rationalize or stretch it to fit whatever religion or worldview they adhere to

Or is your point more that while religions DO have expectations like this- the moral "rules" of these religions don't originate from the religion itself, but instead are general moral values adopted, altered, or shared by many religions? If so, then maybe we are in agreement and I am talking past you.
And if the government were a business with actual competition, no one would do business with them. It's a great example of how monopolies reduce quality and increase waste.
> For me they're very much pictures that identify the set as 100% Poland.

I'm not Polish, but those scenes could very well qualify as being from my country (Romania). There's more similarities between countries in Eastern Europe than we'd like to admit :)
wrist guards and butt pads are very underrated. you'll be spending a lot of time falling on your ass and instinctively reaching your arms out to cushion the fall. saved me a few sprained wrists and sore cheeks when i was learning
Idk if we should, but we do. Generally getting a loan includes this thing called the credit approval process. If one is unable to responsibility manage their personal finances they have a good chance of being limited in their access to loans.
I'm not sure how you are going to get strong regulations passed (or even written) in an environment where "most people have no idea how to even articulate what crossing those lines would mean." The reason theft, libel and feeding poison directly to restaurant-goers are not options for companies are because the effects are immediate and everyone understands why they are bad. Slowly polluting the water supply, unlike feeding fast-acting poison directly to everyone, is not off-limits in practice because it is slow-acting and not everyone understands what is happening.
I never understand this kind of reasoning. Sure, C++ has exceptions, but you are not forced to use them. Just because you go to a restaurant and they have dessert on the menu it doesn't mean you have an obligation to order it.

In fact, you can easily define a result type templated by your result/error code (similarly to Rust or OCaml/Base) and use it in your whole codebase.

I never use virtual or exceptions in my C++ code, for instance, and I rarely need anything fancy like smart pointers.

Maybe one could argue that the language is too complex and supports too different programming styles, but that doesn't justify when the programmer chooses the worst way to do it: that's on the programmer and not on the language.
I can't imagine that's actually GDPR compliant. Since that appeared, I just won't waste my time trying to use their sites.

Maybe I'm just too much of an idealist, but I don't understand a perception of the government that isn't in the first category. It's my money and I'm reaping the benefit, both through direct benefits and through the overall improvement of society.

And I realize that it's partly that not everyone in government shares that sentiment, which is probably where a big part of the problem comes in, but that's another thing I don't understand. How can people not care so much?
I ride in the trees a lot and crash through dead branches regularly to find those lines that others miss. What kind of treatment are we talking here? All I can find is stuff like 3M seamtape, or sewing on more material in high-abrasion spots.
Affinity Designer is also does not have the psuedo subscription style that Sketch uses.

They also allow you to install it in as many machines as you like. Sketch forces you to buy a license for each of your computers.
I don’t see how it would be possible to have that many good engineers left at Yahoo. I would think that most of the good ones left a long time ago and they are suffering from the “Dead Sea Effect”.

I don't think it's fair to judge the "average" cost of living of a CBP officer, all ports of entry are staffed by CBP and the US has ports of entry all over the county. In fact, some of the busiest ports of entry are at airports located in major metropolitan areas with high costs of living.
Wish they had the same article for skiing!
More specifically: Log servers can be shown either a normal X.509 certificate or a "pre-certificate" which is proof that a Certificate Authority intends or intended to issue some particular certificate. Right now these are actually X.509 certs that were "poisoned" to make them useless, but in future they will probably be some other format.

Anyway, when shown a new certificate or pre-certificate, the log server gives you a Signed Certificate Timestamp proving when it saw the document.

Chrome (and eventually Safari and Firefox) require suitable SCTs when shown any modern public certificate or they may conclude the certificate should not exist and fail the connection or mark it insecure, or even report it to Google/ Apple/ Mozilla for investigation.

SCTs get to the browser in one of three ways:

1. Most popular. The site's CA made pre-certificates, logged those, got back SCTs and baked the SCTs inside the real certificate. This changes nothing for a site operator, if you use Let's Encrypt and have never heard of SCTs, don't worry, all your current Let's Encrypt certs are done this way.

2. Less popular: The CA doesn't put SCTs inside the certificate, but it DOES staple them inside OCSP responses. Then you staple an OCSP response into your certificate responses and everything works.

3. Also less popular: The SCTs go in a separate TLS extension when a client connects, saying "Hey, I want SCTs" and they get them back only if they ask for them.
> Dropbox offers 1TB for $10 and 2TB for $20. Google added another zero (10x as much for the same price).

2 TB on Google One is $10, which is half of $20. I don't understands what you means by adding a zero. Are you comparing the 20TB offer which is $200 and have missed the 10x prices increase too?
This is only true for circular orbits. It’s pretty transparently obvious that elliptical orbits move closer to and farther from the center of mass (and lose and gain momentum accordingly).
Start on a Blue slop IF the conditions are good, i.e. you can dig your edge into the snow at least an inch.

If the conditions are not good, i.e. hard-pack or icy, then put the board away. Trying to learn in poor conditions is counterproductive and very painful on your ass, wrists and head.
I'd hate to be part of the control group.
Sketch fit into the niche left behind when Adobe killed Fireworks.
I tip 15% 2/3 of the time, 10% for the worst 1/6, and 20% for the best 1/6.

If you don't change what you tip in response to perceived service quality, there is less incentive to make an effort to provide good service. You're engaging in renegade behavior, just like anti-vaxxers relying on the herd immunity to protect themselves from their own decisions. As long as anybody has to play this stupid tipping game, everybody has to play it.

If you really don't want to worry about it, why don't you just refrain from tipping altogether? It's table service. The restaurant should be the one enforcing its quality standards, and not the customers, right?
i keep seeing this canard whenever military spending arises.

tell me: who would invade?

germany has no ambition to conquer france. poland has a buffer to protect it from the russians. estonia is in NATO.

seriously, what threat is going to suddenly gobble up europe?

oh yeah, and where are the millions of US troops currently stationed in europe that would supposedly stop the threat?
Aol had a built in browser during that time.

TL;DR As a former instructor and full-time programmer:

1 Get a lesson. Keep your knees bent, lead your turns with your arm and front knee.

2 Blues are easier to learn on then greens because the pitch helps you stay up. I have gotten overweight / out of shape older guys from LA, that have never even seen snow, to be confident riders in a day using this trick and the 'falling leaf' method.

3 The first two days will be painful generally, stick with it because once it 'clicks' you will have so much fun!
I very distinctly remember downloading the AOL update that added a "browser" for "the world wide web". Up til that point, AOL was pretty much a walled garden where you could only access content created by AOL or other members. It may have had some level of Usenet access? I forget.

I had no idea what this web nonsense even meant, but I was extremely excited to find out. Turned out to be a pretty good idea in the end.
Proceed with caution..
Personally, the idea that police / the government/ someone somewhere can control my electric car entirely rules out buying one. Completely unacceptable.

The idea that “it will only be used against criminals” has been shown repeatedly to be a fallacious argument. Ditto for any other “product” that isn’t consumer entertainment like Netflix.
Yeah, I totally agree... Yahoo management was pretty awful. All the attempts at rebooting failed.

How do you think without words, or rather sounds, or images? How do you keep track of a concept without a label you can attach to it?
I don't follow / maybe what I meant got lost in language.

To rephrase:

- there were some things in the report that I already knew, it was nice to see confirmation -> points++

- there were some things in the report that I suspected, but wasn't sure about, also nice to see it written black-on-white -> points++

- there were some things in the report which I had no clue about, but were easy to test if they are true or not (they were) -> points++++++++++++++

And to keep it fair: there were also things which didn't really apply at all.

But my point was, because I knew what to observe better, it was easy to keep the relevant stuff and ignore the rest.
Advertising service.
Yes for some things, no for others. General board control, stance, balance, body movement for some tricks, etc: skateboarding definitely helps. There are some things that will feel unnatural at first though if you have skateboarded for a long time:

1) You want your weight biased towards your front foot on a snowboard, when you get competent at riding you will be doing a lot of control with the front foot. This is the opposite to skateboarding, where leaning on the front leg will cause you to fall over very quickly.

2) Toeside turns on a snowboard are utterly counterintuitive because there's no real mapping to anything on a skateboard (unlike heelside which could be considered like a fs powerslide on a skateboard) - you have to push your shins into your boots. Maybe it's a bit like carving on a longboard, but not so much.

The whole turning thing is the main difference - on a snowboard you use your front foot and your edges, on a skateboard you just pivot on the trucks.

(Source: 20 years as a skateboarder, now spend about 30 days a year on the slopes instead).

Remember this article the next time the FBI argues for "more data access".

The FBI is already allowed to eat the fruit of the poisonous tree on a daily basis thanks to its expansive surveillance powers, and the vast majority of judges are clueless about it.

Obama's executive order days before he left office along with the recent renewal (and expansion) of FISA 702 now also allows all 17 enforcement agencies (including DEA, IRS, SEC, etc) to have the same type of access without a warrant.

Who knows how many decades will pass until all of this will be properly challenged at the Supreme Court. It's why I've argued here in the past about US' necessity to create a "Constitutional Court" that wouldn't allow blatantly unconstitutional laws to become laws after Congress and the president pass them in their effort to gain more power and control over the population.
> a little delusional about XD.

By "sometimes better" I meant "some aspects", not necessarily that it's overall better right now (and especially not for everybody - it might never be "better for everybody" simply because people are very diverse in needs and preferences).

I wouldn't call it "delusional"; "biased" maybe - that's why I called out my affiliation to Adobe. Makes me know some things, and also makes me biased. Yes I'm a developer, not a designer, and have never used XD (I don't work on it) - so feel free to take what I say with a grain of salt. It's still a datapoint, I actually believe that XD will be a significant competitor in the years to come. You're free to believe I'm wrong - but don't think that I'm saying it just to support my employer, it's not the case.
Well yes, but I AFAIK remote attestation for specialized security processors has been around for a while. You are of course right that you still have a large attack surface + side channels etc. But at least you can't just snoop on the RAM.
Fellow hardbooter here. Talk about when world collides. I know the guy in the Photo(hardboot). Yes there are tons of tinker-bell: it's not my lack of skill it's the equipment not "optimized" for the condition.

Totally agreed. I have this dataset open in R at home, and intend to dig into it a bit more. One would expect the meditation participants to be more comfortable.

But to be fair, if I was left alone in a room with a button that would shock me, I would probably push the button at least once.
White tea has such little caffeine because it is steeped for only a few seconds at a low temperature. Again, it's the difference in preparation methods rather than the leaf.

I tend to view ownership as more transactional. Does ownership confer a shot-term and long-term benefit? Some of the biggest purchases in our lives turn out to be wasting assets: cars and houses. I'm happy to not own because those things are liabilities. I put my money into income-producing assets whenever I can: rental real estate, stock and bond funds, hard-money loans, etc.

I'd be more than happy to not own a car and just pay a monthly membership fee for a driverless car that will pick me up and take me wherever. I like renting my home because it offers maximum flexibility and I don't have to worry about a broken water heater, leaking roof, or getting in trouble for not shoveling the sidewalk.
