Indeed.

Look also to:

- the near-universality of charger stations on streets, both in residential and commercial districts;

- the huge tax subsidies for buying and owning electric vehicles;

- the low cost of (clean, incidentally) electricity (I believe most of the charger posts in the city are free, though I should note I don't drive myself);

- the substantial tarrifs and fees for poluting vehicles in the city center areas (we're talking more than a cup of coffee's cost to enter ring 1, as well as lighter but still extant fees for the larger outer rings);

- as well as some air control days where vehicles with exhaust may be outright forbidden from operating in the city center entirely...

- and all of these pressures are being tuned up over time. It's widely-discussed and part of campaigns to make things greener. So people are not only responding to the current numbers, but considering the future.

This has everything to do with the society, its incentives, and how those incentives were rationally designed; and very, very little to do with a particular manufacturer and their marketing.
Why would this person use Twitter, and why wouldn't the reasons he comes up with for using Twitter not also be valid for using Facebook or Medium as well?
Spacemacs uses Evil (and adds a lot of stuff (or bloat, depending on your point of view).

There's also Evil-collection which aims to better integrate Evil with a lot of other packages and features.
Now you’re comparing total lifetime sales numbers for a model car that just started shipping in a market this February with a model that’s been shipping since, what, 2010?

Of course there’s nothing stopping Nissan from introducing a new upgraded Leaf in 2019. Maybe they did?
You get 5% cashback if you have Amazon prime. Assuming you are a student trying to build your credit, that's $60 a year.
That means for the 5% cash back to break even you need to spend $1200 on Amazon per year.
That's not obscene, but it doesn't really seem worth it to me unless you use Amazon a lot.
That wouldn't make sense. The whole point of this is for it to "upgrade" to the standard store card once you've convinced the bank you can be trusted with an unsecured credit line.
Yes but they’re not hardcore statisticians like the Empirical people except for this Daniel Ting fellow
Yep. My building "qualified" and a technician basically threw a line out the back to a pole. Apparently they only install in the rear of buildings, so if they can't get access back there, that can be an issue.
You could fetch and cache data into local storage to prevent re-fetching.
Depending on how you are set up you could have both apps loaded at once and display one or the other (perhaps lazily loafing the one you don’t need upfront)
Yes, you can get hit by a metaphorical bus. It's sad, I'm sorry you're having to deal with it, but it's not relevant to the aggregate conversation.

"Just stay in state and go to a public school... also don't be insanely, one-in-a-million unlucky." <- does that feel better to you?
This appears to be a PR piece by the ALS-fighting company, The ALS Association, themselves.
The difference lies in whether you willingly subjected yourself to this transaction (give eyeballs, get Maps service) or whether it was imposed on you without anyone bothering to mention or question it beforehand.

Also the gratefulness part is strange. The corporation has no gratefulness for me, why should we show it any kind of loyalty. It's not a living entity with a consistent mind or consciousness. It will change its will based on Wall Street's demands. It will ban you silently with no recourse.
I agree with you on Zuckerberg since he was chosen as the winner among a lot of competitors by the VCs. I am not sure what criteria the VCs used.

Microsoft was generating cash by writing interpretors before they brought a VC on board. They only brought in a VC for advice and not money - so they still count. Although Gates' mother also had a lot of contacts in the Seattle upper crust. I doubt Gates needed Harvard outside of finding Ballmer.

Apple got VC funding though contacts made on the job not at school. Jobs went to a Liberal Arts college for less than a year. The Homebrew Club also had a big impact on early Apple. Several members of the Homebrew Club founded companies and they all kept track of each other.

Similarly with Oracle and Larry Ellison. Ellison spent some time at two Chicago universities but his contacts and training were largely on the job.
When you start a sentence with "I'm not justifying 'torture,' but..." you really need to take a very long hard look at what you're saying.

Either this treatment isn't acceptable for anyone, or it is. If you think it is, own it. If it isn't, then it doesn't matter what he's in for.
Every time I try to do something before a deadline, I end up being late for the deadline.

This morning I got up a little early. Decided to catch up on some personal communications. Fast forward to now late, doing a mad scramble to be only 5 minutes late for my meeting.

Staying up late isn't a panacea either, of course. You have to have the judgment to stop when you are tired and judgement is one of the first faculties to be compromised.
I understand the issues with latency and they generally don't occur at private peering points.

Per my example, let's assume you're an AT&T customer and you're hitting a the Stadia service or maybe any random gaming service hosted on AWS. AT&T peers with those guys directly. The most likely source of latency is going to be an oversubscribed edge router on AT&T's network just upstream of the client connection rather than a peering router. Regardless, how is some implementation of QoS going to address that? Is this company going to convince eyeball networks to implement QoS on their behalf? For millions of dollars? I seriously doubt it.

It's a non-starter in the sense that it is neither technically nor economically feasible to implement in a way that will solve the broad set of problems likely to be the cause of packet loss and latency.
My understanding is essentially people have contracts that essentially assign ownership of the copyright at point of completion rather that at the point payment.

In the monteiro talk he says that a lot of companies have default contracts for contractors, and say things to the effect of "it's just our standard contract there's nothing to worry about", IIRC he gives examples of contemporary contracts that require delivery on floppy disks. But also they try to have terms that essentially say all the work belongs to them, and you will be paid on completion.

e.g. if you don't finish the work - or they claim you did not (by applying feature creep offensively, etc). Then because you didn't finish they don't owe you money.

The other approach is that they fail to pay, you can't use (for example) the DMCA to pull down their site, or bring copyright violation suit against them because the IP already belongs to them. All you can do is sue for owed money but you don't have the leverage of stopping them using your IP, because it's not your IP anymore.

That is my understanding from his talk anyway - IANAL, and also I haven't done contract work myself (that's what my wife used to do, and she had a default contract produced by her own lawyer)
Can you point some cantennas down into Love Park / City Hall with an open AP? Free internet in a public place can be good advertising
That's an extremely low bar, particularly when you consider the detention conditions of Anders Breivik.

Norway imprisoned Breivik in the most comfortable conditions possible; in doing so, they neutered his message. They showed that he was weak and they were strong. They took someone who could have been a far-right martyr and turned him into a pathetic figure, slowly fading into irrelevance in a gilded cage.

That's what real power looks like - no fear, no anger, no hatred, just the calm machinations of a compassionate state. By choosing not to retaliate, the Norwegian government demonstrated the futility of Breivik's actions with perfect clarity.

Right, so you need more cycles to complete each operation, don't you? Why can't you run the same number of cycles though?
It's worse than your typical secured credit card because it locks you into Amazon.com and services that use Amazon Pay. Basically, it's an agreement to buy Amazon products or products through Amazon until Amazon determines that your purchasing and payment habits reflect those of a person with good credit.

People saying that it's great because you get 5% back on Amazon purchases are myopic. Nobody on HN would be celebrating the Starbucks Card Credit Builder where you get a 5% discount on purchases and can build credit but can only do so by purchasing products from Starbucks and its affiliates. Why? Because as others have said, there are already plenty of secured Visa/Mastercard cards out there that don't convert your capital to funnybux and lock you in to a particular vendor and its best buddies.
As a huge boc fan, I legitimately got goosebumps reading this comment.
I'd consider both to the pinnacle of high scale engineering. Two transactional sites that handle intense numbers of users.

So yeah, I'd say they are the most successful sites on the planet if your success metric is scalability and uptime.
What you're describing is a terrible user experience. The only people who would want that are people who don't need the education. The people who need the education don't want to spend money on software just for it to lecture them when they launch it and force them to make a bunch of decisions. This would literally be paying Firefox to make you do extra work.
I had similar thoughts and wonder if it will be deemed safe. A simpler design might be a fixed tube with the stairs in going up to about an inch or so below the surface with a clear cover. Then you could yank it open if things failed or in normal use some outer tube could rise a couple of inches to stop water falling in and the inch of water be drained.
I used to teach Tableau too and while you're right, the tool still becomes useless after graduation because of the ~$1000/yr price tag.

From there, tableau becomes a "learn it just to get hired at a company that might use it" tactic, which is a valid job hunting strategy but is not something useful to learn in a data viz class, especially since there are other data viz tools the students can learn and keep using after graduation.

Of course, no one is 100% independent. You could recursively find lack of independence:

You have your own website but its hosted on AWS

You host your website on your own servers, but they're in $COUNTRY

You have a guerrilla controlling a de facto state where your server is, but you still depend on the submarine cables.

You have a worldwide totalitarian dictatorship so you can host your website freely, but you depend on the sun for keeping the servers alive.

Your worldwide totalitarian dictatorship has mastered interstellar travel, but you're still in $YOUR_UNIVERSE.

Your scientists discover how to control the multiverse, but they're all going to big crunch eventually.
I decided to test this for a good hour once. I was suprised how little it actually matters whether you're on a cheap VPN (although i do think they limit TOR) or are actually getting the answers correct. Load up chrome or brave, and it almost instantly solved, whereas Firefox on default privacy settings is a total pain. The worst thing is how they purposely try to just waste your time with the fading images, like in OP.

The extra complexity holds back frequencies in a couple of ways. The two that most immediately come to mind are:

* More work and communication to be done per cycle means slower cycles.

* More circuitry means more heat to dissipate.

There are probably others, but I'm not a chip designer myself. I just sat next to a few.
I see a bunch of visual people, no creative directors - and the best indicator would be a current catalog of intriguing content.

The source guys wont work with anyone outside their clique. They are toxic. Studies have shown, despite skill, toxic employees bring the entire company down.

Maybe it's time to return to top down, some accountability is needed.

Steam ran the industry into the ground, ten years of stagnation where indie studios had to pick up the slack with asset flips and low budget shitters. Console sales are at an all time high.

This is nothing to applaud. I would say they put in no effort, but they automated profits, so that's kind of something, but not the reason any of us got into the bizz.

Finally we are just now starting to see some innovation coming 2020, and would ya look at, everyone had creative directors.

Valve doesn't serve the people anymore, and seeing all their devs and fanboys fanboy on the forums like "if you don't like it, leave" cracks me up. Less than a 1/4 US PC gamers are on steam during peak hours, why would they be?

People are now accustomed to being served by companies in the business to serve, being the Wallmart of the gaming industry is nothing to be proud of, and isn't even a position Valve can hold with WePlay, Epic, Blizz, and Microsoft in the arena.

Baby, I am a freelancer with three creative degrees, I just work better with distractions - I actually made some games you probably play a hellevua lot better. You've probably enjoyed some music/media I've had my hot little hands on, too.

Might be the shipping crate rather than (or in addition to) the piano itself.
> If companies are concerned about non-human access they should make an official API instead of their website being a de-facto unofficial API

This is often impractical for several important use cases, like image rendering and PDF generation. Just hand waving away the cost of developing dedicated, pure APIs won't make companies more likely to do so.

> If they are concerned about fraud they will be woefully defended by CAPTCHA, it makes no judgement on the validity of transactions at all and doesn't prevent frauds signing in manually.

There are many different vectors of attack and fraud and CAPTCHA tackles one of them. It's silly to say it's unnecessary just because it doesn't cover all fraudulent activity
No, your original assumption is correct. It is explicitly stated (though I can't remember where) that it is acceptable for a compliant RISC-V core to trap and emulate instructions that it doesn't natively support.

Agreed. It is so strange how it just sort of "happened" generally I don't think such things usually just happen out of nowhere, so half the story I think would how everyone came together to work together and then end up in a situation that was as apocalyptic as far as how it played out for the project.
The only drawback I can think of for this is that it's a PLCC and not a Visa or a Mastercard. That said it looks like it's got some neat benefits like the 5% back on Amazon purchases and promotional financing that seem to be on cards for people with established credit.
I do not think there is any strong evidence that relaxed memory CPUs clock higher. In practice high performance CPUs with relaxed memory models are going to need the additional tracking required to make TSO fast to speed up their memory barriers anyway, so the saving is probably minimal.
Yep, this is the kicker. They're not highlighting any other form of rewards (such as 2% cash back on everything, or airline miles) so it's not really moving the needle on anything other than the fact that it's Amazon-branded.

I see it as just another ploy to get you to spend more money in the Amazon ecosystem.
This would have been great when I arrived in US with zero credit history. While I did get secured card from the bank, it took for ever to get a line of credit of more than $500/month.
The "monitor/improve your credit score" approach is good too as it can be a very foreign concept when you come from Europe...
"Public" in the old school sense like PAIX or MAE-West or some such. "Dead" in the sense that you can't use them to move any meaningful amount of traffic.

There are still IXPs in the world (i.e. Equinix) where one can move a meaningful amount of traffic and you're perfectly correct in that you'll still need to pay for transit for the tier 1s.
Re: Haptic feedback on the touch bar, see https://github.com/niw/HapticKey, which is surprisingly good despite being a massive hack.
C has no notion of virtual memory. If memory is allocated for you that means you can read and write to it.
When I last installed it, the default tab was the Firefox home page (or some other Mozilla landing page), which seems perfectly reasonable to me.

I find a lot of open source software insufficiently opinionated. Can't decide? Make it an option. Want to be "fair" to all? Make it an option and prompt the user during installation! As a user, I like when I have options but when some kind of sensible default has been pre-selected to shorten the time and mental effort between deciding to install and the first "wow" moment.
There is no description on how micro frontends can be structured in practice. The run down in the marketing section is feels like a sales talk. No serious mentions of downside.

Nobody pays a mil-plus for a building of 3-story condos on a former crack block unless it's gentrified. Northeast Philly is the new Williamsburg.
There’s a ton of options to make the stats better comparable. What I primarily wanted to point out is that an arbitrary cutoff point skews the stats. For any cutoff point you choose to make your point I can pick another. An interesting comparison would be the 2nd,3rd,4th month of sales of the 2019 leaf vs the model 3. But the leaf isn’t shipping to Europe yet afaics.
It's secured manually by a deposit, which dictates your credit line. If you don't pay it back, the bank keeps the deposit.

"Normal" cards are not backed by anything.
How does Tableau make your reporting more reliable? My understanding is that Tableau can hook into different data sources -- like your warehouse and SalesForce, for example. Then you can write some kind of SQL to generate charts.

The auto-chart generation is nice. But what about Tableau makes it more likely to be accurate? Aren't you just as likely to make an error on the SQL in Tableau than if you didn't use Tableau?
In many cases you may be able to obtain a secured line of credit from one of your local credit unions if you’re the type who likes keeping your money local. They tend to be more amenable to helping their members with credit rebuilding goals.

That was the path I took, but as with all things ymmv
Why isn't there more of a highlight on Salameh's actual charges. This is grossly glossed over especially when understanding what you have to do to land oneself in a blacksite to begin with.
Try telling that to the C standard. It has no notion of virtual or physical memory. If it's allocated that means you can read/write to it, end of story.
Hundreds of millions of dollars for research...

The US alone is a $20 trillion economy.

Harvard has a hedge fund of almost $40 billion, Yale is about $30 billion, ...

We spend $18 billion on bottled water yearly.

There’s a lot of money in the US economy that we just need to figure out how to get into basic research.

Give up bottled water and donate the money to medical research for a few years?
Correct, they've stop requiring partial ownership, they've moved to "you can also operate through a mostly china-owned subsidiary". These subsidiaries often functionally require access to the IP of the real company. Mysteriously when these "partnerships" end other Chinese companies suddenly have similar IP.

could be related to sidechannel template attack methodology:

https://wiki.newae.com/Template_Attacks
One idea I had was to create a service with preconfigured images setup for personal use with VPN, email server and file sync/backup. It could be sold to privacy conscious individuals and could compete with ProtonMail.

The technical side could be hidden from less technical users and it sold as isolated servers so the data would be protected.

I don’t have the skills or the time to work on this so happy for others to use the idea
It does not.

Edit: it prevents store forwarding though, which is probably the attack rurban has in mind.

Edit2: or more precisely it prevents any attack on the store load aliasing predictor
If you use Chrome or Brave you can get multiple boxes wrong and still get through i've found, even on a cheap VPN IP.
I found they were not particularly good.

I mean, performance was fantastic when they worked, but I found multiple devices (mostly computers like Macs but some other things like a TV) would "lose connectivity" with them while showing decent signal. On investigation with the computers they would send packets to the Google AP but get nothing back. The only way I found I could reestablish connectivity was a hard shutdown/restart of the affected device (simply disabling/reenabling the Wifi on the device had no effect). There were no errors or logs on the Google WiFi app to tell me what was going on from the access points' perspective.

I switched to eeros and the problems disappeared.
Yeah, I was in that bizarre limbo for a while, where annualcreditreport.com and all the other sites would swear up and down that I have a ~730 score, all while I had no debts, but everyone classed me a subprime because I didn't have a credit history.

Even knowing that you can fix it, it's really bizarre that having e.g. utility bills -- which are extending credit to you -- count nothing towards a credit history ... but it does add to your credit history when you simply move your ordinary purchases onto a card that you pay off every month. Huh?

Edit: Reword for clarity.
The topic itself is definitely super interesting and relevant. But the submitted post is pretty much a meme.
"It’s for this reason that I didn’t ask Salameh to tell me about his crimes. The harm he caused should not be forgotten, but it must be held apart. Under international law, the right to be free from torture is inalienable and absolute—and that protects all of us."

Sometimes.

And even then only really when the problem is a single problem, and when it is solvable by throwing more money and people at it.
I did not, so maybe this disqualifies me from commenting further, however I typically don't read press releases because they often contain lies, spin, and everything in between.

I'll give it a look.

And yet, our tech is up and working right now, providing real reductions in latency and packet loss for our customers.
