China compelling airline operators to adopt UN recognized countries... is somehow unreasonable or even bullying is more than a little stupid characterization

Taiwan lost their seat at the United Nations in an attempt to appease mainland China. So, no, the United Nation isn't an objective source of naming conventions for Taiwan. And, yes, that is absolutely bullying.

> Mr. Prunet added that sprinklers were not added because they would “drown the whole structure.”

Waiting for the fire department to show up and start spraying the structure with high-pressure hoses in order to contain a fire that got much larger in the intervening time because it wasn't being mitigated by a sprinkler system, on the other hand, doesn't seem to have damaged the structure at all.

Hindsight really is 20/20.

It's also interesting that fire mitigation measures were discarded in the interest of historic preservation. The charpente being a part of the building that basically nobody ever sees, the question arises, "preserving it for who?" Or had the preservation become an end in and of itself?
If California gets great lakes water, every single southwestern state will also ask for it.

I guess that's why they are firing more than 1000 people right now in France, the people building nuclear reactor turbines. Or maybe because it's more strategic to produce those in the US so the french can be at their mercy, I don't know what makes the most sense. Especially since the US tried to bully France when they refused to go to Irak with them, they halted all military exports to France but we are independent enought that it didn't do any dommage.

They're charging for literally nothing. I get that that allows them to make more money, but charging someone for nothing generally makes that customer unhappy. That doesn't mean I should like it, but I do think most people have no idea that tethering is completely a feature of their phone; I do take things like that into account when choosing carriers. (It was one of the reasons I chose them to begin with! But alas, the deal was altered.)
Hmm. I wouldn’t quite go as far as stupid.

The argument is that humans, in the aggregate, don’t choose trips exclusively based on passenger miles; they (often, though not always) think about how many hours they’re willing to devote to travel.

If cheap air travel availability as a mode induces people to travel 10x more passenger miles, in a world where airlines were only as safe per passenger mile as cars, there would be a net reduction in public health.

But we don’t live in that world; planes are better in safety when measuring by passenger hour than cars, so in fact we’ve improved public health.
> what is the value proposition to a job seeker?

The current interview questions from companies are based on tricks (like two pointers, start at both ends etc) you need to know, memorize, and be very good at figuring out what trick to use in advance .

As a job seeker that has learned there are tons of tricks and its impossible to memorize them all. I for one would welcome anything that tries to end that shit once and for all, which this claims its trying to do.
I actually updated it for the latest Magisk here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/magisk-tetherin...

Do be aware though that I haven't found a generic way to bypass TTL detection, as most solutions use the "mangle" table in iptables, which requires a kernel module on Android. Unfortunately, this is not generic and would be per-kernel.
It makes a lot of sense and I have several friends who use similar services. But if Tethering disables wifi (at least connecting to wifi as your phone is now acting as a router) then their hybrid component breaks and only uses cell which may be throttled, limited, or not available. It sounds like more a CYA against higher bills from whoever they are renting service from while keeping their Hybrid setup functional for better service. I'd be frustrated if my budget plan had terrible service when tethering because 80% of my traffic is normally over wifi and works fine but now is being funneled 100% into cellular.
Wait, WHAT?

Troy’s site asks you to send passwords? Not just login identifiers like an email or username?

In that case, you should AT LEAST be sending a hash of a password, a very key-strengthened hash (like sha2 done 1000 times) and on his side Troy can see if it matches anything.

I was initially referring to the Emirates Taiwanese flag pin incident, and other cockpit paraphernalia drama from a couple years ago. Airlines had existing protocol of scrubbing physical Taiwanese references when operating (i.e. landing) in China. I wasn't of airline site scrubbing Taiwan, which again, I don't see a big deal. Making countries recognize dejure sovereignty is only "bullying" if you drank too much US koolaid. The fact that US is the holdout in including China shows whose being childish. But US circumventing UN resolutions is nothing unexpected.

LRU Cache in Go
It isn't doing this. It uses rough hash of the password to generate a bucket ID that could represent a large number of passwords. That information is the used to query a bucket for whether any passwords in the bucket exist.

For example, "password" hashes to "5DAA6", and the resulting bucket[1] lists secure hashes of several dozen passwords.

The client then generates another hash of the password (eg. "1E4C9B93F3F0682250B6CF8331B7EE68FD8"), and checks if that secure hash is in the bucket (it is, "password" has been compromised at least 3,730,471 known times).

Related, physicist Kurt Mendelssohn’s The Riddle of the Pyramids is a great read. It proposes that the “bent” pyramid has its shape because of the catastrophic collapse of another pyramid being built at the same time, which led to choosing a safer angle for the remaining portion of the bent pyramid.

It took away a lot of the marketing “mystery” of the pyramids for me, instead taking a very practical engineering, scientific, and analytical approach to investigating the pyramid phenomenon.

> The added insurance costs for luddites will price them out of the market.

What added insurance costs? It's not like adding self-driving cars to the road will make manual driving more dangerous.

No safety technology could make insuring self-driving cars any cheaper than free. Would free car insurance act as enough inducement to drive the fearful away from their steering wheels?

The functionality is part of every decent password manager, which takes care of basically all your passwords, not the ones stored in your browser. So I don't understand the enthusiasm.
HIBP doesn't work that way really. You don't query for a site breach + email combination, you basically give your email address and then it returns back a list of breaches your email address was part of.

As far as HIBP linking your email to specific breaches, well, it is essentially using public data sets so that disclosure exists already (before HIBP even enters the picture). They are a bit more reserved with certain cases (the Ashley Madison breach for example), but even then if someone wanted to locate email addresses in that breach, they'd just go get that data set.

I like the approach reduces the risk, but this isn’t sufficient for me to actually trust a third party. The article calls out an example where the five character hash prefix has 477 matches in the password file.

That’s a ridiculously small number of possible values for a powerful actor trying to crack a password.

I think the highway freight problem is also a good place for humans to act as a backup, since you more or less know when that will be needed (the beginning and the end). Also, a human driver on their 7th hour of driving is often not as alert as they normally would be, so the level of comparison is easier for AI to meet.

Unfortunately, what the people paying for this want to achieve is the ability to not have to pay for a human driver, and if you need a human for the beginning and the end of the drive, you have to pay them for the whole time. So, while this would be an excellent application, I fear the business incentives are not aligned for it to happen first like it ought to.
I did something similar to bypass Verizons $5 per month surcharge to tether. I think it was a different variable I set though, not tether_dun_required. I think it was something like don't check if the tether enable bit is 1. I haven't tethered in several years and several Verizon plan types though.
>But the highways don't clear out during summer thunderstorms;

Part of this is that people (and I include myself in this) tend to have a mindset of slow down but power on. (Although in my experience not enough people slow down enough.) But it's often also a reality that pulling over isn't really safe. And, even if you can get to an exit, in the case of something like a snowstorm you may have a long cold night in your car if you decide to wait it out.
Weird. Seems like a fork for a fork's sake, with a lot of attitude sprinkled on top. If there really are flaws in NTP they should be fixed - but I am unsure if it really should necessitate a fork.

> For example, Tesla seems to save replays of when its vehicles would have behaved significantly differently compared to how the driver actually behaved, and this data is supposed to be quite useful.

I don't think such a system would catch a false negative like the above, where the human would slow down cautiously but the self-driving system would do nothing. That situation is indistinguishable from a human slowing down to read house numbers.

To realize the problem, the system would need a full model of "what would the car be doing if not for the human input" in order to find a later point of alarming divergence.

> The idea of sending your passwords to a third party is pretty crazy.

Thats not how it works. You hash your password first and then take the first 6 chars of the hash to query the api. The api then returns all of the hashes that begin with those 6 chars and you scan the results for your full hash.

I know what it is like to be poor. I have been poor. I have had a lot of friends who were poor. Yet few of them were fat. Poor people are not very fat where I'm from. People in USA are not fat because they are poor, they are fat because they are in USA. Blaming it on poverty is a cop-out. I'm not sure why they are fat, but there is no universal law that poor people make bad choices and don't have time to cook.

The Only Stall You Should Use in a Public Bathroom
mhermher's examples are 1) proven impossible, and 2) impossible until we get a completely different theory of physics, respectively. "Until they aren't" makes a nice glib dismissal, but is fails to address the actual impossibility that mhermher has pointed out.

Now, neither of those examples is actually relevant to the topic at hand, namely, AIs driving cars. The question then is, what category are AI's driving cars in: The go-and-chess category, or the logically-or-physically-impossible category, or something in between? My guess is "something in between". But "until they aren't", while it may apply to that category, may still be "longer than your lifetime".
Github is searchable and has a big green “Download” button. I know, technically, getting a font from a website is more or less just as “easy”… for people without the ability to click “Inspect Element” and follow a link in the CSS, Github is far easier.
How about just programming human driven cars to obey speed limits (downrated in bad weather or visibility conditions). Many accidents are caused by people driving at an unsafe speed (who has not gone into a turn a little bit too fast). No AI needed, just a speed limit overlay onto existing GPS maps, plus a bit of logic to reduce speeds in certain conditions (night, low visibility, etc).

Super interesting product. I wonder how they will tackle the plagiarism problem that a lot of project-based products in this space have.

I also think there is a lot of unconscious bias in the technical interview in most companies and not a lot of people like to admit it. We have a similar take on the problem in our own product: https://medium.com/codesubmit/were-all-a-little-biased-a4749...

The trend is definitely going into project-based assessments, at least here in Europe. I think most candidates would prefer that kind of assessment if companies started to invest time developing them. Most of the time they are either a nonsensical mix of brain-teasers or just take way too long to complete.
No, that's not quite what I'm saying (so I must not be good at communicating). But I am saying you don't need to be way above average. You need to be good enough that it's not an obstacle. Having excellent communication skills, and NOT having poor communication skills, are very different levels of effort to achieve. The first takes a LOT of work; the second takes some attention and effort, but not nearly as much.

As thaumasiotes points out, the overall homicide rate is not the most relevant when selecting where to be a tourist. For instance, between 2012 and 2015, 15 and 5 British citizens were murdered in the US and Egypt, respectively

https://www.quora.com/How-many-tourists-have-been-murdered-w...

even though ~3M brits visit the US each year but only ~50k visit Egypt. So we can be pretty confident the murder rate for British tourists is at least an order of magnitude larger in Egypt.

> Note that "establishing limited nuclear retaliation as official policy" JUST occurred.

Ehhh, limited nuclear retaliation was the keystone of the "flexible response" doctrine that was in place for most of the Cold War (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_response).

It was probably inevitable that it would be so. The core strategic problem the West faced in that period was that the Soviets had substantially larger conventional military forces, and Western public opinion wouldn't tolerate the kinds of measures (truly universal conscription, 10%+ of GDP dedicated to defense, etc.) that would have been needed to match them. So the only way out of the dilemma was to apply deterrence by threatening to meet any Soviet conventional attack with a small-scale nuclear response.

This is also why administrations of both parties consistently rejected the demand of the anti-proliferation movement for a "no first use" pledge (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_first_use) -- they knew that, in any real shooting war, NATO would almost certainly have to bring out its nukes first, simply because it had no other realistic way to stop the much larger Soviet armies from steamrolling across Europe.

>Why isn't this happening in the US?

My personal experience with this is that the cheap, unhealthy, sugar-loaded foods are the obvious choice when you don't know any better. I mean, they're delicious, and a lot of people are overweight, so why not?

I've since learned that maintaining my weight is important, and that means I should end a meal being just hungry enough to eat more, and if I'm losing weight that means being hungry at the end of a meal, and proteins and healthy fat choices help me from getting so hungry I eat a whole tray of brownies.

As for comparing this to other countries, I think the lifestyle of the US is more sedentary in comparison, and for me at least I get more hungry the less I do during the day. I sometimes eat because I'm bored, and that means sugary stuff. When I lived in Brazil and walked around all day I ate a lot but never really cared for sugary stuff the way I do now.
