I've been running Steam on a non-admin account for awhile now. I can't recall a game that actually needed admin permissions to install and run. Some games will continue to try on every run but after the no admin error it runs fine anyway.

I'm on Windows 10. It's possible I've already installed the required Visual C++ runtimes.
VoIP apps built against the iOS 9 SDK and earlier can still run in the background all the time, but we know WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger have used iOS SDK 10 or higher since 2016 because they introduced support for CallKik back then which requires that version. Also, the current version of their apps only support iOS 9 and newer and PushKit has been available since 8. As far as I can tell, the media coverage is just misleading in a way that pushes their existing narratives about Facebook and Apple.

> I hate how soulless the journals feel.

I certainly sympathize with you!

That said, personally I'm happy about this development. Journals don't really fill a practical need anymore, and (as you point out) they increasingly don't fill an emotional, intangible one either. Perhaps then we will muster the effort to kick the entire industry to the curb.
Medicine has largely outgrown that oath. A few examples: At some point you're going to want to replace a bad heart, and to do that you have to take it out first. These days if an arm is broken, they often prefer to operate on it and insert some metal rods and pins to fix it so it heals faster and correctly. In both cases the intermediate state is worse than what you started with.

Anyway, it's fun as a thinking exercise, but I wouldn't live by it.

It's probably a bug. I use the FB apps on Android and Chrome on Win/Mac, and sometimes the notification thing goes out of sync and is stuck on "1" for a few days, and nothing seems to help. Then eventually it goes away. I'm 99.99% sure this is a some cache/consistency bug and not a trick. It's super annoying when it happens to me.

Find diagram showing the achievable framerates for 640xH frames for v1 and v2 camera here:
https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=2125...

Deal is basically "halve vertical resolution, and get roughly double framerate" (up to cap imit of around 665fps for v1 and exactly 1007fps for v2 camera).

In addition "tools/*_s" tools double vertical FOV while keeping the framerate.
The huge point against lunar 3He, even ignoring that it's two orders of magnitude less reactive than DT, is the difficulty of extracting it on the moon.

3He occurs in regolith in concentrations measured in the ppb. Even with beneficiation of fine fractions and efficient recycling of heat from the thermal extraction step, the energy requires are large, a significant fraction of the energy the 3He would produce when fused.

So to power the terrestrial economy with 3He, you need to put a significant fraction of the terrestrial energy output on the moon to get the 3He. Power plants on the moon will be much more expensive than on Earth (because labor, materials, and supply chains will be more expensive there, even with cheap space transport), so this is unlikely to pencil out.
Random idea: maybe you could supercharge this by introducing to grep some constructs from programming languages. Now you have things like "word character", "whitespace", "start of line". In supercharged version you would have "function", "identifier"

Hwoever every 4-6 passengers they deny boarding is a €2000 fine.

For EU flights especially you still check passports at the gate - indeed it's the only place they are checked.

For other flights they normally check visas at the checkin desk, but if you're transferring you usually get visa checked at the gate. Most people have nice simple visas that pretty much anyone can check, a few troublemakers like me rely on more complex timatic rules (say TWOV in Beijing on multiple tickets), but no reason that can't be checked at gate either.

It seems to me that referencing Code Complete's exhortation to fix the underlying cause of a problem actually supports refactoring. In my experience, the most common cause of bugs is code that was either poorly designed, doesn't follow principles such as immutability and functional purity, or where time wasn't taken to make it simple. In these situations, refactoring is how you fix the root problem.
Illumos is also a supported platform (SPARC and x86-64).

Privilege Escalation in Cloud Foundry UAA – CVE-2019-11270
I don't think this is a discussion for developers. Every human being should "do no harm". The thing is, you get no money by looking out for others. It's hard to see the (short-term) benefits. And I think because of that there are a lot of people acting very egocentric and not for the greater good.

I don't know how to fix this though.
Saying you need to drop a file is a sad excuse. Especially when you don't need to. I see no reason why you couldn't use the suggested exploit. Changing the HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\msiserver ImagePath to the path of cmd.exe should pop you up a system shell. With no files dropped.
That might depend on who's frame of reference we took, Einstein, or Hilbert's? Are either of them on a train at any point?

This should be ranking higher. This is one of the most disturbing things I've seen on the internet, in that it showcases the complete lack of empathy the "gamers" have for these two, actual real life human beings. It's turned into a virtual lynch mob over which game launcher they decided to use.

Some of the responses to that post are literally calling them crybabies because they're complaining about death threats and saying they should have anticipated that because "they offended gamers".

And I don't care how rude or offensive their original announcement was, have some damn sympathy when people receive hundreds of death threats.
> I do wonder why people keep building more systems of this kind.

Not a lot of languages have higher-inductive types which is the main advertised feature here. At least they're missing in Isabelle and Coq.

That's also orthogonal to the matter of automation/metaprogramming, which, from the lack of mention, doesn't seem to be their focus right now. There doesn't seem to be anything fundamentally in the way of Coq-style tactics either if they really wanted to build that on top of what is presented here.
I use nested virtualization for Windows Desktop -> Linux VM -> minikube. Works great.

I also use the koolertron and I love it. I've had it for over a year. I had a Comfort Keyboard ErgoFlex for over 10 years before. My favorite part of split keyboards is reprogramming the left spacebar to backspace. Second best part is the keyboards move slightly day to day, so you aren't always in the same rigid position. As for the koolertron, it's main advantage is space saving. Many split keyboards take up a ton of desk space. This one does not. Plus it looks nice and the keys are really smooth.

I have to be sincere, I never saw this definition involving marketability anywhere, this is new for me. Perhaps it's really like you say, but that's not the definition I had, nor the one I see as the generally accepted one when checking up the definition of capitalism.

This is a pretty easy one to solve since the number of votes is not privileged information. Simply publicly record the number of votes as each person goes into vote. This can be verified/observed by whoever wishes to do so. You could even require a large public display at each station. Pair that with a camera record that can also be verified. One person enters, the display should go up by one. And from there you have simple math:

The sums of the polling stations should equal the district.

The sums of the districts should equal the state.

The sums of the states should equal the nation.

I have to say it also makes me wonder what in the world darpa is thinking. Modern technology possible, somewhat trivially, elections that would be nearly impossible to fake in any way, shape, or form. And I'm certain this isn't exactly a secret to darpa.

> Why/how is it free? How much is it typically? Do all/most cities have "backhaul" easily available? Isn't backhaul owned by ISPs as well and basically like a fat pipe?

Sometimes but not always, the Tier 2 internet market is acutally quite competitive and usually you can get fiber from a couple of providers within 50 miles of any location in the US (5 or less if it's reasonably populated). The problem of course is to be an ISP you have to deliver the traffic that last few miles.

This whole thing is further obfuscated by the fact that the entire infrastructure market is very human powered. Few providers provide public maps and in order to find these fiber connections you literally have to know the right people. The internet has automated everything but those people building and maintaining the backbone still need sales calls to tell you where they can connect and a bribe before you get a good price.
