GMS is bigger issue though WhatsApp or signal work both fine without gapps, not sure about other messengers I don't use and in general it's hard to find app which has really problems without gapps other than ridesharing apps with last devs relying on gmaps
Huawei still uses outdated, insecure versions of OpenSSL through their basestation code, and has successfully avoided using version control despite promising to address both issues back in 2012. This seems like an optimal environment to engineer an optimized version of Linux!

There are a few different kinds of self-solving cubes available from magic shops.

One of them also does a "prediction" that allows the spectator to scramble the cube, then check the SMS picture that was sent to them, and it is a picture of the cube as they scrambled it. Lots of variations on the motorized cube theme out there.

Unsurprisingly, the same manufacturers make watches with similar electronic hacks built in.
How is this still possible in 2019? These are well-known tactics and yet Youtube still allows this?
I don't think Google has entered that business yet.
I've been part of the group who got asked to give a DNA sample in the Nicky Verstappen [1] case. This was voluntarily, and I reluctantly did this (for [mostly ethical] reasons which would make this post very long), and had a good discussion about it with the 2 policemen who came to my house to take the sample. The technique used (family DNA) is the same in that case as in the topic we discuss.

Now, I knew I didn't do it, and I knew it would be highly unlikely (but not impossible) that a male member of my family did this (not emotional but practical reasons: my uncle didn't quite live near the region, my father was almost blind and could barely walk, and my cousin was like 10 or so when this happened). So I didn't quite get the point. However, because I volunteered, the police could flag my entire family off the list of suspects. This narrowed the net around the perpetrator.

Thanks to people like me, not to mention the hard work of hundreds of policemen, the case is now solved (or well, to be precise there's a suspect on trial; not yet a convict). Because there was a match with a family member of him. And as you can read at [1] the bird had flown cause it got too hot around him.

I recently got a letter from the government that my DNA got destroyed. Whether you believe that letter or not is up to you; during my interview I had the chance to decide for it to be kept or destroyed after the case was final, and I went with the latter. I'd like to hope my choice is respected by my government.

I get it though that with common law and in the USA you gotta be very careful when talking to the police but my experience in The Netherlands with the police has been positive or in some occurrences neutral at worst. Could be white male privilege though. YMMV.

> If the host is the planet, what is the claim on the other guests to your body.

On Earth's "body" the other guests are alive; you're dead. They can contribute to the future of planet earth and its inhabitants while your time is done for. So it makes sense that whatever is done with your remains and inheritance goes to the inhabitants, with a (slight) prejudice towards your direct ancestors (family). The good news is, our legal systems have law to provide for such as it is.

As for the other inhabitants in your body, we're at the point where pets have a few rights whereas cattle and such have barely none. Lets not think about the rights of bacteria and parasites and such (they don't even have a CNS to begin with, and while their usefulness is up for debate, they're not exactly a dying breed).

I live in the US, and sit on the the board of a governmental organization, a nonprofit corporation and an LLC.

It is incredibly obvious from this perspective that the regulations the state chooses to apply greatly constrain what it is possible for your organization to do. And this goes beyond the day to day all the way up to the mission of the org.

The state definitely has a large influence on weather organizations exists, their form and the reasons for which and methods they operate.

"When the result became clear, a listed Chinese company whose name sounds like “Trump Wins Big’’ in Mandarin surged, while a firm that sounds like “Aunt Hillary’’ slumped."

I have worked on a video streaming service[1] and I also worked for a company that did sell ad space on their own and with this background I can tell you that I do believe that it should be possible for him to set up his own video distribution site. You are right that he probably does not have the technical expertise to build it himself, but he makes about 1 Million Euro a Year. He probably has enough cash on hand to hire a team that can.

I don't think the cost of a computer is a big deal these days. The question is the cost of the time investment to bring a startup off the ground. If you live paycheck to paycheck and have to pay rent etc. this can be difficult.

Generic Equate brand Asprin is $3.64 for a 500 count bottle at Walmart. 3/4 of a penny per Asprin. Nobody is printing consequential profit on that.

And that's the cost in what is by far the world's most expensive healthcare environment. The other comment is correct, the competitive market for generic Asprin generally makes it a very low profit product category. The only way to make a bit of money in Asprin, is eg what Bayer does, sell things like orange flavored chewables in their low-dose subset (which is then immediately undercut by generics anyway; Bayer's 300 count version is $10 at Walgreens, the generic version is $6; two to three pennies per).
An api gateway gives you all the hard to manage foundations of a publicly exposed production-grade api: rate limiting, multitenancy, pricing plans, monitoring, staging, and more, all at a predictable cost.
Aaah, those were the days.. I went from an ST to Slackware on a 386, hooked them up using the serial port and wrote my own terminal emulator because whatever emulator I could get my hands on could not keep up with the maximum baudrate; https://github.com/remvee/st-tty
Nope, the topic was mentioned while browsing the r/collapse subreddit, so I googled it as I was shocked to see this kind of thing happening in Italy.
This is not really about faces as such, but there is something about physical presence in the same room that cannot be replicated through telecommunication alone.

Part of the problem here would be that none of the claims sent to MumboJumbo have been through the DMCA. They all use Youtube's internal system instead, which was built to appease the big music publishers.
On the other hand, VDOM is a type of transformation that makes it extremely difficult to debug events sometimes.
I've been working fully remote for a little over a year now. I enjoy the freedom it grants me to live where I want, but the main issue I have is feeling like I'm not meeting enough co-workers and having some sort of network while I'm still new in the industry (and fear of not learning enough).

It's also quite annoying to have a laptop that doesn't even have an SSD in it, and having to email IT or someone from a different group and never hear back without sending 3+ follow up emails. It would be easier to walk and go see them if I were just working there.

One thing I learned from my first remote job was to examine how your direct manager treats remote work, and that will quickly tell you how your experience might turn out. My boss communicated with me hardly ever (even to relay requirements for new projects), and frequently stayed up all night to finish stuff.

>> Beef is pretty much as natural as it can come, while the 2.0 meat comes from a lab.

More to the point, you can subsist just fine on a diet of mostly plant food without having to eat processed stuff that mimicks meat.

For instance, check out the many variations of rice and beans eaten around the world (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_and_beans), that are nutritious, filling and delicious and made from ... rice and beans (though rice is often processed, to be fair).
Motives:

* Trump has been on at China for a long time.

* US establishment growing increasingly worried about the sophistication of Chinese tech and are viewing Huawei as a strategic threat. Especially since the latest generation of Chinese telecoms tech has arguably leapfrogged western offerings. Free trade works brilliantly until you stop being the top dog.

* NSA doesn't the idea of Chinese being able to use their tech to spy on US. They'd prefer domestic US companies build tech to spy on us for them instead.

* "National security concerns" is kind of a "get of jail free card" when it comes to escaping WTO rules on protectionism, so it fits in pretty well with the rest of the trade war.

That's how shitty parts of society work. An organization creates a monopoly platform to generate revenue, and then exploits content producers. Yes, our society has multiple examples of exploitative marketplaces. That doesn't make it okay.

But also, complaining has never helped! As multiple people have commented here, they have no incentive to change!
The one thing that does force change is competition, and there is basically no competition.
they have their own AppGallery store and email app, after all gmail it's crap compared to Nine, Aqua mail or Maildroid, honestly don't understand people using it

so in the end bakery competition could benefit from this Google push, dev can choose another store not stealing 30% of their money

I think these posts will be much more enjoyable in 2020 when we hopefully have a stable compiler. Not a huge fan of switching to nightly to get certain functions.

And don't get me started on the cross compile support. While Go ships a single binary that supports many targets, in rust you need to mess with rustup, compile your own libraries and even then it might not work...

Can't wait for 2020 to arrive.
I've never heard of anybody being hit by a rogue cat ladder. They start close to the wall of the building, so are not easily dislodged by wind. Besides, even if the owner is not concerned about pedestrians, they tend to be concerned about the safety of their cat.

SAT, its extensions and SMT solvers are heavily used in bioinformatics. For example in genetics and for protein folding problems.
What's the current consensus of LiveLeaks being the edgier alternative?
Don't phones in China already not use proprietary Google stuff? The cyber attacks being aided here are surely on Huawei owners outside of China (US/Europe mostly I expect?) where their phone shipped with Google Play and could get Google updates/other services?
Ask HN: Ways to automatically make inferences from data?
Suppose I have sales data - it is easy to run a few queries to find out top selling items, top regions etc.

But, is it possible to do this on any set of data, without knowing anything meta about the data at all? In other words, can this be generalized? Are there any models, theories I can learn to achieve this?

I'd hardly presume Huawei is a front for a foreign intelligence service, but their software for cellular basestations is extremely vulnerable (hundreds of different vulnerable versions of OpenSSL sprinkled through) and they still can't be bothered to use version control, despite committing to address both issues back in 2012: https://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-huawei-bri...

Huawei's products are vulnerable by default, anyone can look up the applicable CVEs and run the proof of concept code for said CVE to pop a shell. China doesn't have exclusive access :)
But these are Youtube complaints, not DMCA complaints.

Totally, if all you care about is just that counter/gauge -- but more and more often, you need that counter/gauge captured for a particular segment of your traffic (e.g. some app-level identifier), and TSDBs tend to struggle[0] as the number of possible segments explodes.

If all you care about is overall latency, awesome! Use a TSDB. Once you care about latency per endpoint/user agent/customer ID/client platform (or combination thereof), you need the flexibility associated with structured log data, stored in something meant for fast analytical querying.

The problem with this line of reasoning is that it is not solely your decision to make. We as a society, as taxpayers and potential jury members, are being placed on the hook for the costs of enforcement and the negative consequences on the local economy that these agreements produce. If you and your employer want to engage in a non-enforceable personal agreement to avoid competition, that’s (mostly) your business. But if you ask us to use the court system we taxpayers pay for to enforce it, things are very different.
Sorry, can't find a definitive reference, so I'll withdraw the claim. Athlon 200GE Pro (for OEMs) supports ECC.
Why do we have push-button screw-people-over systems at all?

If the problem is that there are “too many” things for companies to review manually, too bad! If a company is perfectly fine raking in money from massive sales at a global scale, they should be willing to spend a proportional amount of money to do business at that scale. Let them hire their own people to review content in depth. Let them hire their own goons to send legal notices. (We certainly need more jobs for people.)
It seems so, though my personal experience with their phones has been hit and miss. The specs look great on the box, but the phones themselves seem to have poor QC and support when things go wrong.

That said, others have only had good experiences. YMMV.

It was announced in 2017 that China was investing in its own mobile OS based on Sailfish OS (http://www.goodnewsfinland.com/jolla-goes-full-steam-ahead-i...). I don't know what's the status of the project currently. Russia has had similar plans (http://rusletter.com/articles/operating_system_sailfish_from...).
Google has suspended business operations with Huawei effectively immediately
AirBnB happened because the founders found a way to skim off short-term rental property taxes, labor taxes, and room taxes into their own pockets as revenue. If AirBnB property listings were taxed appropriately as short-term rentals in all jurisdictions, with time sheets filled in and paid out to each property operator, their business would have collapsed within a year.

They are a very poor example of value creation, and I’m stunned that PG considers them a positive example of anything. Show me a business that creates value that didn’t already exist and praise that and I’ll root from the sidelines. Instead, PG chose a skimming racket.
Rather than sending that third email, why not call them? Even in my company, where I don't know any remote workers, people webcall each other all the time, since we're often on different buildings.

> and only run slower for power reasons.

And if there weren't power limitations we'd already have cores using even more GHz. So a solution which depends too much on having something running faster could be not too relevant to be even used in practice. That's why I pointed to that assumption, which is I think something which has to be understood before the solution can be considered usable.
Pretty sure people want solutions to their problems in general. AGI is the ultimate product for that. It's a general problem solver. At least in theory.

Solid Principles: A Software Developer’s Framework to Robust, Maintainable Code
It's kinda odd to see these sorts of "gen-ed" requirements from the UK. US college degrees seem to be lengthened a year and required to be partially filled with what appears to be a bunch of irrelevant classes. I'd be pretty annoyed given the cost of tuition if, as an adult, I was expected to do a bunch of drama, or humanities, or languages classes prior to graduation... for a CS degree.

To me, and I suspect most people in Europe, the primary purpose of going to university is to specialise in one particular course area and gain a higher qualification. Of course, there is space to ensure students practice e.g. public speaking, working within a team, project management and technical writing within these constraints. But generally, all of the classes will be relevant to the subject area you are studying unless you _wish_ to take a module from a different degree course as an option. The idea of depriving an adult from being able to make that decision for themselves is disheartening.

Most students would surely have already worked through and experienced a great deal of other classes in high school in order to receive a well-rounded education _prior_ to attending university.

So sure, if you want to get outside of your comfort zone, take an optional class or sign up for a society. But this whole concept of forcing it into an unrelated degree is odd.
Mmm just like grandma used to make... when she was a chemist.

I'm sorry you feel this way. You lost out on a good opportunity because of an asymmetrically unfair legal agreement that you had to sign. I'm glad I live in California where it's not enforceable. If you came to California, you would see that your supposedly valuable knowledge isn't as valuable as you think. Certainly it has some value because you learned how to be good at your position, but it wouldn't tank the company, no one is that important.
Very nice, starred. There's also xbyak, which a number of projects use: https://github.com/herumi/xbyak.
