If anyone had a device in the F8E079 family, they would be - rightfully - shitting bricks, right now, for being correlated with it.

Only if one normally shits bricks about something that's a 1 in 16 million chance of happening. But if someone does know that their MAC OUI is F8E079, they almost certainly know the rest of the MAC so they can rest easily unless it happens to match the published one.

Also, it's a family included in macchanger, so that makes it ever-more probable that the mac address has - at some point - been used by someone else.

macchanger -l just dumps the list of ~18,000 OUI's known to macchanger, so it doesn't really mean that it's more likely to have been set by someone using macchanger.

Can I get an RSS feed as IRC messages that I can access from cli? Have you heard about how we sent a man to the moon with 1 byte of assembly, which was the fashion at the time? And now kids are driving around without type-safety and gigabytes of electrons and spectrons and scripting with coffee and garbage collectors. I remember when a man was a man, and you could send a man to the moon with 1 byte of assembly, which was the fashion at the time.

Sure, they can be spoofed, but do nic vendors try to keep them unique, or do they reuse them from a pool, like after the card is 10+ years old?
If you're going through the trouble of changing your MAC address, why would you want it to persist across reboots? If anything you'd want to change it with every reboot, and if you're really trying to hide something, you'd want to change it more often.
Has anyone tried to define a subset of Python, JS, C, Go, etc. that is SSA and actually write programs in it?

Is it annoying or natural? I feel like I mostly do it in python but I have no way to machine-check it.

Is the problem that you can’t do any aliasing of mutable containers? That is useful for many problems.
For me, I still have no idea what the visual of a venn diagram is trying to tell me within the context of SQL. Just having a visual that I can't even understand does nothing to benefit the situation either.

The life-changing magic of sorting books
The lack of version control in Keep has come back to bite me in the past. I've switched to OneNote which provides more control over version history and deleted notes. It's the only Microsoft product I (knowingly?) use personally, but I've come to recommend it to family and friends instead of Evernote and alternatives like Keep.

As I mentioned above - it is 10% from the company perspective.

However, it sounded like every employee at SpaceX went home on Friday thinking "Do I still have a job come Monday??". Because no other information seemed to have been imparted as to the selection criteria for the redundancies, every single employee wouldn't have known if they would keep their jobs or not.

Unless they knew they were blatant underperformers or had lots of black marks against them on file, their chances of keeping their jobs was the same as the chance they could be on the 'hit list' for redundancy. 50/50. I am willing to bet that even employees who thought their job was as safe as houses and that they were considered good employees would find them self on the 'let go' list.
Personally I love the design.

> As for if they will get paid afterward, well legally the government cannot promise that. Legally it's possible that the new budget may even disband something like the TSA and all of the workers who have been working for free would be even more screwed. But historically every shutdown ended with giving back pay to the workers who had to work for free. They just can't guarantee it.

Yes and no. Excepted service employees, which includes most of the TSA, are guaranteed to receive back pay for time worked during the shutdown, as agencies are required to pay for services performed. However, Congress and the President must pass and a sign a bill explicitly paying workers who were furloughed (i.e., non-essential and non-excepted employees).

As the shutdown continues, excepted and essential workers may be entitled to double pay due to the Fair Labor Standards Act.

That’s silly. “this” and other OOP features _are_ runtime abstractions built atop a more functional core.

> If you want to use a functional style in javascript, you have to accept that it isn't a pure functional language, and do so using "this," not avoiding it.

This is nonsense. You don’t have to do anything at all to program in a functional style in JS. You don’t need to use “this” and I can’t even imagine how using “this” would be helpful to that end.
In my underfunded rural American elementary school, they taught us Venn diagrams. Not set theory per-se, but they taught us to read and create Venn diagrams.

I don't know if that's representative, but my gut instinct is that Venn diagrams are very accessible to the general public.
My “mixed reviews” probably have more to do with slack being scatterbrained from a product direction. Look how poorly threading works nearly all of the time, with half of the conversation buried in a thread, the other half leaking out. Another example is how social link previews push the entire conversation up.

I love a lot of the tech work being done at Slack, but a lot of the product doesn’t feel particularly thoughtful.

A cross join is the union of 3 mutually exclusive sets: the left join tuples, the inner join tuples, and the right join tuples. Is this not the case? So then you can use Venn diagrams just fine.
The bit your missing is the awkwardness of expressing outer joins. The way Oracle does it is an existence proof of its awkwardness.

The 'FROM' clause defaults to Cartesian product for multiple tables. You can then specify your join conditions in the where clause, but it makes outer joins harder to write - Oracle does them with special (+) operator, but it's clumsy.

It doesn't (shouldn't) make much difference at all to the database whether you specify your join condition after the `ON` or in the `WHERE` - if it doesn't hoist `WHERE` conditions into the join clause, and potentially change the join order because of it, it's missing big optimization opportunities.

> The beginning of my depression had been nothing but feelings, so the emotional deadening that followed was a welcome relief. I had always wanted to not give a fuck about anything. I viewed feelings as a weakness — annoying obstacles on my quest for total power over myself. And I finally didn't have to feel them anymore.

This part rang alarm bells for me. Not going to play armchair psychologist with this guy, but for anyone else who views emotions as "obstacles"/unnecessary and is depressed, that's probably why. You need to learn to regularly express your feelings in a healthy way, even the unpleasant ones.

I mean maybe it is, but then comes the problem: Plastics are used because they're cheap, they're not worth recycling because they're so cheap but you can't just do away with the packaging material entirely because that just leads to, in the case of food, spoiled goods and foods which can't be stored or transported for so long which can cause its own environmental issue.

It doesn't make economic sense to use a different material which is more recyclable because, by the definition of this problem, they're much more expensive.

Perhaps the answer is re-usable plastic containers - maybe some system where you can post them back to the manufacturer for cleaning and re-use.

It might just be that once oil drilling for energy goes away, so does some of this problem - at least in that plastics would cease to be so cheap.
Can? Certainly, which is why most modern phones randomize MAC addresses use for probing.

Do they? I'm sure there are some that do, especially if you enable verbose logging, but I haven't seen any that persistently log them by default yet.
I know; I was being facetious.

There have been far too many cases where they " investigate the [suspect], find nothing", and still charge them or harass them, even making stuff up or withholding evidence from the courts, because they "know for sure" that they did it.

Especially if the suspect is black, muslim, immigrant, etc.
Even though I am sure I can already see the privacy activist banging there war drums and the "know-it-alls" tell us that mac addresses can be spoofed/are not unique, I don't see anything wrong with it.

I have a tiered storage for my to do lists.

The biggest storage (also the longest term) is Trello. I have a board with many "lists" in Trello term. Some examples:

- Learning
- Software development
- Home (repairs, improvements, etc.)
- Physical organization*
- Digital organization*
etc.
*: Having lots of data and items create its own mess.

However, the most important four lists in my Trello board are

- ToDo (what I've decided to do next, when task at hand finishes.)
- In Progress (What I'm working on).
- Done
- Cancelled (Sometimes problem solves itself or you change your mind or else).

Using Trello effectively is the key. All the research about a task is under that Task's card. All the documents, all the links, everything. When the task gets rolling, all documentation is moved to its own Evernote notebook and stored forever. The documentation evolves there and gets more useful over time. Another useful tool for this task is Zim wiki. It's arguably more useful, but running it on Mac is a problem for me (I don't like Homebrew).

Trello is updated weekly. New ideas are added, maybe some are cancelled. Completed ones moved to appropriate places, etc. It takes 10 to 15 minutes.

For daily tasks, I have a notebook. I write every night the next day's tasks. I have some implicit categories in it. Office, academic and personal. Incomplete tasks repeated the next day. It's like a bullet journal, but it's not.

This creates a big picture for me. I don't need to remember anything, can see my backlogs, remember what I'm working on and see how far I progressed. Writing daily tasks keep me motivated. Updating Trello also keeps me motivated and on track.

For allocating time, I have two tools. Google calendar and Pomodoro technique [0]. All my fixed tasks (like social stuff, meetings, etc.) are in my calendar. I generally decide to work on some project the night before.

When I'm working on the task, I track time with Pomodoro, so it keeps me motivated. 4-5 Pomodoros are sufficient for me to produce meaningful work. I generally use the last one to update progress and documentation, and end the day.

Hope this helps, please ask any questions you may have in your mind.

Venn diagrams are almost, but not quite, completely wrong. They hint at the idea of including failed joins vs only successful joins, but this is only a small part of the full logic behind Cartesian product + filter - even if it's the most commonly used pattern in practice in most database models that ultimately get used in an object oriented programming language.

I think it's OK to use the venn diagram only as an explanatory tool, briefly, and informally. If you raise it to the level of a complete description of semantics, then it's very inadequate. Any step off the beaten path, where the cardinality of the join is no longer 1:1 or 1:n, and you're back in the weeds again.
To a lot of people antromorphizing their pets and educated by disney - it obviously is. Also this phenomena usually goes along with a disability to empathize with ones fellow men.

Email marketing can also include newsletters and emails to existing customers (in fact, the latter is the vast majority of the "email marketing" I receive).

Of the two above, the latter is probably the spammiest, and might technically count as "spam" since they're unsolicited, but they're generally (in my opinion) targeted sufficiently well enough to be acceptable/tolerable. In excess, though, they can quickly cross that line into being unquestionably spam.

Prediction: This video will generate a whole lot of ad-hominem attacks. Why? Well, they seem to occur when someone can't really disagree with a message, but the message forces them to confront some deep truths about themselves that their ego cannot handle. Thus they do deep Google searches about someone's history, find out the controversies in their life, find out what past opponents have said, and attack this person using those things.

Alex Becker is controversial and I do not agree with everything he has said in the past, but I believe he's exactly correct, "hit the nail on the head", dead on the money -- in this video here.

I have a Guardian 3 sensor from Medtronic, which I've been using for about a year. The initial insertion isn't "painful", but can definitely be uncomfortable, and there might be a bit of blood that leaks into the sensor cavity. Once it is in, there is no discomfort.

The adhesive tape which is needed to attach it to your skin is actually more uncomfortable than the sensor.

Combined with a 670G pump it has been a huge benefit for me. My A1C of 9.0 is now down in the 6's. My pump broke while I was on vacation for a week, and my control was clearly worse with pens and finger sticks than the pump and sensor.
First, it doesn't exist in Germany.

Second, that applies to illegally obtained evidence. For example, if (in the US) the police tortured someone/broke in somewhere without a search warrant to obtain the MAC, then the fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine would likely apply to the evidence found as a result of the MAC address connection.

Finding additional evidence starting from a vague lead ("the robber was wearing black clothes") is not something illegal, it's good police work.

Not, there is a much simpler explanation that is not biological and they are missing it.

If you apply a vibration to a thin object, you could make it vibrate in sync, and eventually break. Because sound is a form of energy and energy can break a glass (Not because the object is thinking "I will give this piece of me to that guy"). Nectaries lie often at the base of the petals. Damaging, folding or breaking the petal peduncle would be enough to release the content of the cells. Cell walls broken means more sugars inside that now are outside. Is simple.

Can you expand on how oracle does it?

I can't imagine any reasonable way to do outer joins in a where clause.

For inner joins the grandparent is correct and it should never matter whether you use ON or a where clause.
Of course, you can find direct drive brushless motors on higher-end models, but the truth is that they're more expensive, so when you're trying to make a sale to most customers who just want to spend a couple hundred bucks, they don't care about direct drive.

Direct drive is certainly better and more reliable than any belt system. Very low flutter and wow.
It can. For example, instead of buying bottled water or olive oil or vinegar at a few grocery stores near me, you can bring in your own bottle and fill up.

Instead of buying pre-cut veggies and fruit, you can get the individual ones and do it yourself.

Unfortunately, what this thread sees as waste consumers often see as a benefit: buying items in sealed containers lets you have peace of mind against spoilage or in-store contamination (anyone can open up those pour-your-own tubs of olive oil and sneeze into them).

Additionally, packaged things stack up better, so you can offer consumers a wider variety- laundry detergent scents, drink flavors, and so forth. Offering pour-your-own means maintaining and cleaning goods and equipment that are exposed to both product and air, which is more expensive for grocers.

Finally, packaging (especially the clamshell variety) is often used for protection- from damaging the contents in shipping / handling to acting as a mild anti-theft device.

So, yes, there is a market for reduced-production goods. Produce, grains, soft drinks at gas stations, and some other goods are already there.

If there is a reasonable way to protect goods, ensure their freshness, offer a unique variety in a low maintenance fashion, there's money to be made. If you can't do that and still want to reduce production, you're going to either end up creating more waste through some side effect of the tradeoffs involved.
