Yeah this is a huge selling point of YAML. JSON should have comments added to the spec. The other benefit to YAML is human readability, which is usually better in YAML compared to JSON. A specific glaring example of this is when there are long string-literal snippets inside the document, in YAML this is massively more readable than in JSON.

Taken from the point of view of the divorce court, this is a LOT more ammo for his soon-to-be-ex-wife and her side. These photos are very soon to hit the greater web/papers and WILL be used against him in the proceedings.

You are correct, this decision by him to speak out is likely to cost him Billions.

There is a good reason for this. Real criminals don't aspire to be criminals... they just are, for whatever reason, necessity or lack of certain morals.

People who idolize criminals show an entirely different character defect, one that is in opposition to being productive in any task criminal or otherwise.
That will make for a very nice book in business schools
If AMI committed a crime by threatening to post them if he didn't keep quiet, and he posted this, AMI definitely also committed a crime if they then posted the pictures in retaliation.

Bezos is reasonably safe in airing this, because AMI will only dig itself a deeper hole if they post them. AMI botched the crud out of this operation by leaving a paper trail: They made accepting their offer completely unnecessary; I don't think there's any chance the pictures get posted now.
Who did Gawker blackmail?
Wikipedia says this: Blackmail is an act of coercion using the threat of revealing or publicizing either substantially true or false, and often damaging, information about a person, to the public, family members, or associates unless certain demands are met.

It seems its considered blackmail but in the strictly legal sense I'm not sure. There's probably a law to cover that though, extortion?
About the nonsensical assignment of gender to nouns I agree in principle but just a quick tip for the particular example in the footnote: “Mädchen” ends in -chen which is the diminutive form of a word (originally “die Magd” for a young woman). All words ending in -chen are neutral. Similarly, “das Bübchen” could refer to a young boy and is also neutral.

Hope this helps and good luck with learning German. If it wasn’t my native language I wouldn’t want to learn it but I do love it.
No need to bring any mods into this. The legal system can handle it.
And why should content creators also be the ones who control the very last mile of the internet in the USA? You don't think there's something very wrong with that arrangement?

Back in the day, we used to take a dim look at companies who amassed horizontal or vertical monopolies, and broke them up. Well, they're like the replicators from Stargate SG1 and have reassembled into something even uglier.

And yet when we discuss this, you fall back on caps and justification by contention ratio... But why are their services zero rated, eh? Of course we know why - it's to kill the opposing services like Netflix, Hulu, or others... except for their services!

Logically, the actual lines should belong to the people (government). The money We've(royal) paid has been above and beyond what it would have cost for a REMC-style internet-ification. I don't want the US or State govts being ISPs themselves, but muni style arrangements have worked out well in the past - except when Comcast and ATT haven't lobbied them out of existence.
I totally agree that data caps are insane with today's technology and need to die for good. However, at least some zero-rating programs are "category-wide" and will enroll any streaming provider on request.
Standing up to that fucker does, in fact, buy you your pride and dignity back.

The only thing missing here is Bezos offering to up the ante with a newer dickpic.
At least on x86-64, Rust inserts stack probes to ensure that it can't skip over the guard pages at the end of the stack. Last I saw, it was waiting on LLVM support to add this for some other platforms, though.

Think more in terms of, say, Netscape Composer in the Netscape Communicator suite (or Microsoft FrontPage/Adobe Dreamweaver/HoTMetal as a browser mode or tab environment). Typing JavaScript in the console to create a DOM document that's easier to type up raw in a text editor sans JS ain't exactly the same thing. It's not even the same category of thing.
I mean, technically, they've opened themselves up to multiple felonies.

World's richest man uses Medium to post an article? OK.
It appears Jeff Bezos has partially doxed Howard Dylan. In the email he published he removed Dylan's phone number and email address, but the image included, probably as Dylan's signature, clearly shows his phone number and email address.
This could become a replay of Peter Thiel episode, with Bezos destroying the tabloid or at least seriously wounding it.

Morality aside, I don't have any sympathy for tabloids like these. What bothers me is I don't think much will change, even if Bezos wins here. As long as the public has voracious appetite for celebrity juicy stories, someone will find a way to feed it.
This sounds too bad to be true , but if true i think it's how any sensible person should handle it. I mean, a dik pik who will care a month later. Did they really think that such misguided extortion would work? It really doesn't make much sense unless someone else was pushing forward this extortion
I'd say play around and see if you can predict the price - treat it like any machine learning/optimization problem - if you want to learn and have fun. If your goal is to make money, unfortunately it'll take a lot more. I've worked at a high frequency trading company, and now work at an algorithmic hedge fund, and you really need to scale horizontally to make money overall.

There's a lot I can talk about but here are some points:

- Most of the time you don't trade instruments in isolation. They are all correlated (even if inversely) one way or another , so movements in one will affect others. Having a myopic view of just one instrument will have too much unexplainable randomness.

- The other way to scale is having more data inform your pricing - i.e. don't just look at the prices of one or more instruments. Look at twitter, look at weather reports, news etc. It kind of suggested that in the article. The meaningful movements in the market are most of the time due to truths outside of the price itself.

- You have to decide whether you want to trade directionally and long term (like a hedge fund) and take on positions over time, or trade in and out of positions quickly (like high frequency trading firms) to minimize risk. You can be anywhere along that spectrum. The faster you are, the more myopic you can be and just react to current trading activity of other participants. The more long-term you are, the more you have to look at the big picture, more data, more instruments, making sure you have the right balance in your portfolio (whatever that means to you).

I'd be happy to expand more :)

Yeah. I guess that I just don't see what Pin provides that non-Copy/Clone does, when it comes to preventing the zeroed data from leaking elsewhere.

In other words, why is a zeroing Drop of a type more secure if it uses Pin too?

That user posted an update:

"everything minus core network gear was manually being unplugged from any PDUs to help the control the initial power-on."

Can't we... Why don't we have rack hardware that can handle this situation? I thought some HDD RAID solutions had circuitry to keep them from browning themselves out while spinning up the disks. I guess I'm surprised this isn't a solved problem at the rack level now.

Or have we been so focused on never cold booting a rack of servers that we haven't spent any effort on foolproofing of cold booting a rack of servers?

[Edit: answering my own question] apparently these exist and are called Managed PDUs. Can we deduce WF doesn't have them?

Odd though it may sound, many girls enjoy nudes just the same as guys do......when they're coming from someone they're interested in and when it's been requested, which is often the missing factor.

So, the motivation is the same as when a girl sends nudes: to excite your recipient, and/or receive compliments.
XSLT was one in a litany of domain specific languages (ant, apache rewrite rules, latex macros, etc.) that evolved towards turing completeness because that's what the problem space demanded.

In most if not all of these cases an existing and well designed turing complete programming language would likely have better served them.
Correct. And it's important to note that AMI's claim that they could publish the photos at all is dubious at best. Whoever took the photos (presumably Bezo and/or his girlfriend) holds the copyright to the images and fair use only allows them to be reproduced by AMI if they're newsworthy. AMI claims the photos are newsworthy because they speak to his business judgment which is a serious stretch for the photos of Bezos and completely irrelevant with respect to the photos of his girlfriend.
And also contrary to his own arguments in this very story.
Peter Thiel (worth 2.5b) destroyed Gawker with a contribution of 10m to Hulk Hogan's legal fund.

If Bezos contributed a similar proportion of his fortune (112b), he would be contributing 448m. Not only is the National Enquirer about to be in the shitfight of its life, but every single other lawsuit it's going to be facing will be armed to the teeth with amazing legal talent.

Couldn't have happened to nicer people.

It is to their mistress, so I assume the intent it to titillate or arouse. Same reason anyone would send a message of a sexual nature.
Gawker never tried to extort Thiel, they just published their story. Nor did they have a history on sealing or using these stories as leverage.

Pretty well summaries in the 1st third:

> “Of course I don’t want personal photos published, but I also won’t participate in their well-known practice of blackmail, political favors, political attacks and corruption,” Mr. Bezos wrote of A.M.I., explaining why he had decided to speak out. “I prefer to stand up, roll this log over and see what crawls out.”

Perhaps Apple was already waiting for an outrage like this. It allows them to be “forced” to shut down third-party logging. Which only hurts competitors. What can Google say? “Well....on Android we’re not a third-party...”?

They’ve kicked out tracking already on Safari. This is the next step. It makes Google’s software look like spyware.
I would buy a newspaper and publish it there, maybe. No, nevermind.

Why should his wife get more or less than half of their common property (Washington is a community property state) regardless of who had an affair with who? They're both multi-billionaires and will live comfortably for the rest of their lives.
> It’s generally not blackmail to threaten someone with some action that, by itself, is legal.

That's entirely untrue. The downvotes are rolling in because your assertion about blackmail is simply wrong. There are a myriad of local, state, and federal laws on blackmail that cover situations like this.

Blackmail can involve any threats to coerce using private materials, not just for financial objectives.
United is always amongst the worst of the bunch.
I also know jessie gill personally and he don't deserve to be COO of the copy. I don't have any clue why Atrient CEO Sam don't take of this things well.

Wells was one of the earlier companies to have the CTO report directly to the CEO.

All the crazy sales numbers and bogus account shenanigans were going on back in 2003/2004 when I worked there. I ratted out more than one professional banker to branch managers and up over that crap. A fun one was the home equity lines people would open without customer knowledge and link up to overdraft protection. The customer would never owe, nor know, anything until one day an overdraft hit their equity line, and then they got notified of late payments.. I don't miss working for a Bank.
Given that Jeff Bezos appears to be willing to spend almost unlimited money on this, it’ll be interesting to see if a felony investigation happens.
> All the money in the world can't buy your pride / dignity back, especially if some "embarrassing" evidence get out there.

AFAIK we are talking about a naked pic. If that was really so dangerous, people would never take naked selfies in the first place. I think it's hyperbole, even by american's puritan standards

The unpleasant answer is that both might do no good at all, by themselves.
Guys tend to enjoy getting nudes from their SO's. Why would gals be any different?
Same thing I was thinking. That said, I hate the National Enquirer and I am praying this leads to their destruction.

On a tangentially related note I also believe there ought to be laws restricting paparazzi from harassing people. I think it's awful every time I see someone trying to walk down the street or out of a hospital or courthouse and swarmed by cameras that won't leave them alone even in moments of grief. They're people. I don't understand why it's considered perfectly acceptable to treat them that way just because they've become well-known.

Just a thought connected to my disdain for tabloids.
I'd buy a country and have it inscribed in the earth so it can be read from space.
> most of us have made mistakes that we deeply regret and fear getting out

Agreed, probably Jeff Bezos has made those mistakes as well. However I fail to see any mistakes of his threatened to be revealed.
The key bit here is where he says that a lot of people will lose their jobs soon. There are tons of jobs that exist only because of momentum. The financial incentive to pay all these people will dry up and it’s going to hurt. And we won’t opt for UBI until many people have suffered a great deal. People do not seem to appreciate the gravity of what is coming.

Basically every time I bring up jobs, ai and society someone comes out of the woodwork to insult my character or sarcastically dismiss me. Never any substantive counter-arguments. I’m really looking forward to what you guys will come up with this time. Always such a pleasure.

What they do to earn their living is irrelevant. Including your convenient disbelief (in the name of "evidence") of their factual reports. Unlike you, I take what people say with face value in order to establish a prima facie case -- there is no need to believe or disbelieve.

Had I listened to the Internet cynics like you I would not have resolved my own chronic condition.
Personally love them. Not so much in German, but in Russian they make word order wonderfully flexible. You can just blurt stuff out, adjusting the case as you go along, to build a sentence, rather than having to go back and restart.

What bugs me with German inability to reliably form plurals and having adjective endings vary by determiner (though not difficult to learn, but just seemingly serving no useful purpose).

For me I found aspect in Russia the most difficult thing grammatically to grasp. I hear learning articles from an "articleless" language is similarly difficult.
This is actually insane. I know how it’s so wrong, but I’ve always been curious at the inner workings of the behind the scenes things for the elite. It’s like a movie...good on Bezos for not giving in, hopefully we’ll see some justice here. Bad on him for cheating though

Sounds like Singapore too. I guess it’s the same for many metropolitan cities.
So it's not enough to set up anticonstitutional totalitarian checkpoints, but they complain when their victims have the audacity to report on them?! Given how readily these charlatans will waste public resources, it seems like the best way to "make the streets safer" would be to lay off as many are necessary until their organizations can once again focus on fighting crime rather than creating it.

But of course that's just the ongoing issue with these lawless thugs. The noteworthy problem here is the vulnerability caused by centralized applications and centralized app stores. Waze may not immediately succumb to this whining, but the technical foundation of the mobile ecosystem makes it a sitting duck for repeated attacks. Eventually enough pressure will build that they will have no choice but to succumb to the totalitarian ratchet.
Kerosene also benefits from the fact that it is consumed over the course of the flight, so that an airplane gets lighter and therefore less fuel-intensive as it flies. The weight of enough batteries for a fully electric narrow-body airliner is punishing when you consider that you have to carry that weight around all the time instead of it steadily decreasing from takeoff onward. I haven't run the numbers, but off the cuff I'd estimate that you need at least one more doubling of energy density to account for the higher average weight of the aircraft in flight.

Now you have to hope you can maintain sustained consistent improvements for half a century just to get into the realm where battery energy densities start to make sense for a fully electric airliner with the same capabilities as our fully hydrocarbon based airliners of today. And of course it's not anywhere near as simple as swapping the engines on existing air frames, so if you want to have your electric airplane the day that the batteries exist, you need to make a pretty sizeable bet today by investing in the groundwork for all of the other systems.
It seems to me the acquihire option was rather summarily dismissed in this post, and I’m not sure why. It would’ve been better for employees and investors, and the customers at worst would’ve gotten a clean, slow wind-down with time to find alternatives.

The idea that large companies are horrible places to work and where good products go to die is another stereotype spread by VCs to convince people to go hard into billion-dollar companies.
