AT&T’s “5G E” is slower than Verizon and T-Mobile 4G, study finds
Please don't do this.

You've gone from “implying that an attitude is out of the acceptable/plausible range” to “implying that the visible counterexample doesn't understand why anyone else might hold a different one” in the span of three posts.

I can imagine several reasons why this might be a hot-button topic for you, especially given what you've just said, but I am not putting my nature up for attack here. If you expect me to have a generalized disregard for or incomprehension of people who don't share my tendencies, I don't think it's true, though I don't expect you to believe me. If you feel like my attitude or existence is a shock or an affront, I'm sorry. If you resent feeling stuck with the institutions that surround you because they're not serving you well, I'm sorry. I would ask that you not extrapolate my personal attitudes about alcohol and speed limits to assuming that I follow social institutions “unquestioningly”, if that's what you were doing, and especially that you not extrapolate it to much wider and deeper issues.

This will be my last comment on this topic.
Of course phone numbers stink as identity proof. But I thought that was the reasoning behind MULTI-factor authentication?

Yes, someone could get your phone number someday. And someone could get your password someday. But it's much less likely anyone would get both at the same time.

Stupid question, is it straightforward to change the phone number you are using for a second factor for most web sites?
Money laundering would imply short term parking of assets before moving them on? Which would tend to inflate trading volume?

I don't have any money to launder so I'm not an expert, but that's seems right?
I agree. For $100 more, they could have had both a thin bezel and usb-c, and I would have bought one instantly.
What I find funny about this is that there was a huge concern about image compression algorithms introducing artifacts into medical images that would affect diagnosis back in the 1980s, and even to this day.

Deep networks can learn to hallucinate rather well. I'm sure that they can fill in what body structures are supposed to look like (they've seen them many times) but not sure if they would help in diagnosis -- or if they would add plausible-looking details that would breed complacency.
This seems like a weird structure, why would anyone ever convert Class B stock to Class A?
It's not binary like that. having an oligopoly in O&G is a negative for local economies, but it allows for more effective pricing in international markets. not only does that mean more American O&G is purchased, it means less (Russian or Syrian or Venezuelan) O&G is purchased, which is a strategic goal and may be more important to American goals than competition within local markets

The same may or may not be true of search engine or other technologies, but to look at it from a black and white perspective is not helpful.
They've detected that 95% of the volume of their somewhat dubiously selected bitcoin speculation markets doing trades off-chain are fake.

This has nothing to do with Bitcoin blockchain or Bitcoin itself. It's all about the speculation markets.
I think you're missing the core point. It's not that industries are selective of gender. It's that people are selective of the industry they work in, and on average women select things other than tech. The agency is on the part of people.

So the less restrictions there are on gender roles, the more agency people have to select fields based on their own preferences.

No, it’s an existing iPad with a new chip in it. That’s cheap and easy to make.

You want USB-C? Ok. That means new case. Might as well make other changes because you have to pay for tooling again. And all the assembly lines have to be updated. And people retrained on the new assembly procedures.

All that costs money. And they want to hit a low price point. So they put a new chip in the old thing (and a new screen? But same size) and don’t have to raise the price.

The mini is already more expensive than the iPad. You think an extra $50-70 would help it sell better? All for USB-C?
Presumably legitimate access would be on port 22, whereas only bots would hit 2222.
The whataboutism here is palpable.
The idea is that you run your real SSH server somewhere else, like on a different port. If you scroll down a little (like, skim over the article) you see some example code that is basically the entire server. It's just a few lines of code, there is no real SSH implementation in this thing. And that's the whole idea: it can't really be hacked and it thwarts attackers.
Afaik they did that after the NZ shooting to prevent people from finding the millions of reuploads of the killer's stream.
As a thought exercise, compare how much you have benefited from the gcc tools suite being "free and unpatented" versus having it cost you every time you used it.

This isn't as a bad a comparison as you might imagine. There are "rewards" and there are "rewards." It is in the governments interest to spend tax dollars to make the country better for everyone. If they give Purdue grant money to do the research and this process results, then they make it both free to implement and required, then the result is a "reward" where there is less polluted water out there, everywhere.

Similarly when someone spends their time making gcc better and giving way that investment, everyone gets a better compiler. So they have invested a bit of their time and the community as a whole has benefited.

Because they are pursuing a patent on this process, I predict it will never be used for the next 20 years because it doesn't add any "value" for the people who should use it.
I read “privileged workers” = workers for whom there is competition to hire, as opposed to workers who don’t have much mobility or (good) choices in employers

The verdict on dual class shares is not as unfavourable as is frequently made out in the press as attested to by a recent study in the Harvard Law School Forum on Corporate Governance and Financial Regulation:

"The limited empirical evidence on the technology and emerging growth companies that are the target of these regulations is insufficient to support the adoption of new regulations, as the evidence that is available indicates that the most recent group of dual-class companies may have performed as well, if not better, than those with a single class of stock".

Avatars. The main benefit over videoconferencing today would be meetings for remote collaboration e.g. hard to do remote "brainstorm together on a white board" type meetings remotely.
A lot of sibling comments stick to the "gender equality paradox" while forgetting all the other research on the topic (this is already a heavy selection bias). Yes, women in Scandinavia and women is Bangladesh, given the chance to pursue a career in STEM, might make choices that superficially support the notion that women self-select out of tech. But this line of reasoning forgets to compare what other choices/opportunities the women in those two countries have and similarly does not compare this to the background rates for these choices in the population at large. It is rife with interesting statistical fallacies that are worthwhile to discuss.
The point of the structure is to maintain insider control, so when an insider want to sell some stock they do the conversation before selling to the public markets.

This will not allow any machine to connect on the port it's listening on.

The idea is that you set Endlessh on your server's port 22 (standard SSH port), then configure "actual" SSH to listen on a different (randomly selected) port. You connect to that port to get stuff done. Bots that troll for connections on port 22 will get stuck on port 22.
The DoD thinks that China's military will use the technologies developed by Google@China, so the DoD is bringing attention to China's own military-industrial relationship with private sector companies (ironic, in many regards).

Since Google is from the US, the DoD is expressing a bit of "How could you do us like this, fam?" after Google's recent withdrawal from DoD projects.

What's interesting is that mega-corps, like Google, could in theory position themselves like "stateless" capitalist corporations. This is not complete a reality in the present, but it's evident the growing influence huge corporations like Google have on the US government. It's a different type of working relationship than, say, Gazprom with Russia for example.
Newspeak!
I had a stint of about six months when I lived in a camper and worked full-time as an engineer. I was amazed at the kinds of places I could get away with staying for free (coast in oregon, ski resorts, national forests). I would drive around public lands looking for LTE on verizon/AT&T and then post up for days.

It wasn't without its precarity. Sometimes I'd get woken up by sheriffs at 2AM, have mechanical issues, and generally struggled to conform and relate to friends and coworkers. Also, sleeping in SF was terrible. Buses waking you up at 2am, and after meeting others living living in their vans on Division due to hardship, I couldn't help but feel guilty and privileged in my solar paneled, cassette toiled equipped, expedition vehicle. People would joke that I was gentrifying the streets.

Eventually I sold it and moved on. Worthwhile experience though.

This is just a way to calculate a statistical distribution over possible body structures given an image. If the image is bad, the estimates will be bad.

Hopefully the probabilities of error are carefully quantified.

Edit: speeding up the MC estimates of absorbed dose, etc, (i.e. speeding the treatment planning process) seems like a much more clear improvment.

As great as Gibson is, I think the revolver part just comes from him not really understanding combat/warfare to any reasonable degree

You have to remember this was the 80's. Revolvers being more reliable was still a dying mainstream-ish viewpoint back then with police/mercenaries, arguably appropriate for a grizzled veteran character with very high marksmanship skills. Xenon was the best weapon-light technology widely available.

It's more that Gibson couldn't reasonably be expected to have forseen the tremendous strides LEDs and Li-ion batteries have taken since back then.
> This makes images a few percent larger

Teehee. The method is not new at all, for example compressors like xzip do this out of the box, and almost the exact thing they're doing is basically how ZIP files work

The trouble with discarding state on every file is that it really hurts performance with small files, or when using anything like a modern codec, which gzip/deflate is not. Gzip maintains a 32kb dictionary which is quite easy to exceed with contemporary data, but with a modern compressor (like lzma2) losing that window will absolutely devastate ratios

The usual solution is so-called 'solid' compression, where the uncompressed input is partitioned into blocks spanning file boundaries. It configurably trades seek efficiency for reliably preserving compressor context -- including allowing seeking within files. Their format could be modified to support this while retaining backwards compatibility as good as the current method. What they have is already pretty much solid compression, except it only chunks large files. This is basically a weird special case of a simpler and more general design everyone else uses.

Finally on the compatibility angle, the end of stream is visible at an API level, so this isn't going to be 100% perfect. I'd expect one or more obscure implementations (maybe Windows apps? Java?) to potentially break

Google scraping? How/why can it be used for google scraping? Doesn't google return html result pages?
"And to be perfectly frank, that's because they're often the jobs that require the biggest investments of time, energy, and critical judgement."

While this is generally true, often people don't want the job because of the perception that it's hard, not that it really is.

There are many jobs like this, while challenging, can also give you a lot of latitude to self manage work effort and be more autonomous than many "regular" jobs.

And there is the danger of "we can get rid of Bob, becaue that component is all fixed now". The trick is to screw up enough to be noticed, but not cause real problems.

A big one for the need of server side rendering is SEO. Without server side rendering, most web crawlers don't have access to your content and you can't rank for SEO.
Moderators aren't doing that, other than by having banned accounts in the past, which makes future comments [dead]. Users are doing the rest.

The same people who are owning more and more every day are pushing and trying to convince the rest of people to do not own anything by saying that owning is a bad thing and people should move to subscription models instead of owning anything.
Sometimes in forums, when someone says something is bad, someone else argues against them calling it bad because it would be hard to make that something illegal, despite nothing about legality having been said. It's a frustrating argument because it implies laws are the only moral standards one should adhere to, and it disregards any possibilities between something being good and 100% legal or bad and 100% illegal. Usually I downvote that kind of response because it just encourages a polarized discussion that embraces a false dichotomy.

ngold's post was ambiguous about whether he expects meat production to become illegal, so I don't think you were wrong to bring legality into the picture and I didn't downvote you, but I can see how someone could think your reply fit the above pattern.

They do their best to remove fake volume as far as they can tell. And in my opinion it's best to list the exchanges and assets and let the users form their own conclusions than to be a centralized gatekeeper.
It feels so much faster tho, to not have websites slow down when my browser slows down. Server side rendering should be considered a better experience for the end user, especially if it can prefretch the next pages.
Is it not important to understand where these choices come from? Not because we have to enforce any particular distribution of genders, rather because it is useful to understand any differences that exist and whether they are truly personal choices.
LEGO Mindstorms is the example that comes to mind most immediately to me. In addition to the toy there was an entire league structure that fed into a high school level robotics competition.

I'd truly encourage you to go hang out with some real activists working on this stuff. We do care about teachers being majority female (though things get much more male as you get to higher education as well as administration roles like principals).

I believe a significant motivation of SSR was to be indexed by Google, then Google said they will start crawling JS rendered pages:

https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2014/05/understanding-web-...

So maybe that took the wind out of the sails.
So, this brings up some questions in my mind:

1) Who is it being offered to? Clearly, women in college. The majority of people in college are privileged (in this country, anyway) so you're offering free money to potentially privileged people. Is it possible to prioritize women who need the money over ones that could pay for it?

2) If I offered $9,000 in training for welding to someone in college, they might take that too. It's well known that the things people study in college and careers they prepare for often don't always result in what they do for the rest of their working life. Is it possible to prioritize individuals who demonstrate a consistent/continued interest in being in the industry, rather than random students looking for a free ride?

3) Where is this being marketed? To insiders who already are in a position to want to be in the industry and find a place there? Or underprivileged and minority communities that might need more of a hand to find out about such opportunities before they can work towards them?

Basically, I think it's a nice idea, but I think it can be tuned to optimize doing the most good with some minor tweaks.

This whole camping trend, whether on beaches or in parks or on other public property, makes no sense to me. Society is built on the expectation of protected property (reserved for certain uses), enforcement of laws (such as litter laws), and earning of privileges (rather than feeling entitled to live wherever one wants). I don't think it is fair that law-abiding residents who pay taxes and have worked to earn those pricey homes can have their public amenities, which are meant for day-use, instead crowded-up by transient residents. It just defies common sense.

In Seattle, we see the effects of similar permissive laws all around us. Property crime has gone up significantly alongside our recent lax enforcement of littering laws and due to the allowance of "urban camping". We have induced a large homeless population from elsewhere due to our permissiveness - even from cities immediately next door (https://q13fox.com/2019/02/26/did-federal-way-bus-its-homele...). The rise of RVs taking up parking spaces is another problem - it is essentially freeloading off of spaces meant for use by residents of that neighborhood and for temporary day-use. And of course, these RVs are a blight - they are often in shoddy condition, they make the neighborhood look less safe, and they leave trash all around them (or worse, sewage runoff). Many have needles around them and are clearly used to deal drugs. With burglaries happening often, I can't tell you how anxiety-inducing it can be to have someone pitch a tent on the sidewalk in front of your home, camping there all day everyday, watching all residents' movements, etc. This city used to be beautiful and it is trended towards a trashy Mad Max like situation.

I don't agree with arguments that this is due to cost of housing or supply issues. This is due to people feeling entitled. If one can't afford to live in some area, then they should consider finding a different area to live in, or a different line of work that enables them to live in that area. No one is entitled to live wherever they want, doing whatever job they want (e.g. the musician quoted in the article), at whatever wages they are able to earn in that job. That's simply not tenable. There are plenty of affordable places in America where people can make a living and thrive. And yes, it may require that you look outside of the most-desirable locations, or that you do work that isn't your "passion", but that type of compromise is simply a part of life.
