I suppose Search Guard could claim that they interpreted the license to mean the code they were copying was Apache licensed and that their interpretation of the license grant is more valid than Elastic's, but that is going to be a stretch. This announcement from Amazon might look bad for Elastic, but if anything it means that Search Guard was on notice and should have taken more care.

Like I said, feel free to insert any other emotion that explains the facts.

Funnily enough, just a few months before the Anglosphere dove into the current populist wave, people like Charles Stross were talking about a future of beige bureaucratic dictatorships dominated by financialization and security states:

Cobalt reduction has already been happening at a rapid pace. 2018 article mentioning Tesla cut their Cobalt needs by volume over 60%: http://www.digitaljournal.com/tech-and-science/technology/te...

Even if we can't get Cobalt to 0% (and there is plenty of research into other battery composites happening right now), the problems with Cobalt seem less to do with scarcity and a lot more to do with geopolitics (Cobalt is primarily sourced today as byproduct extracts of mines for minerals such as nickel in countries like Columbia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo). There's even indications that cobalt could be recycled from existing battery composites (as we do today already for lithium), but no economic incentive to do such because it isn't scarce enough to try.

TBH, Rust's other extreme of never converting any numeric type anywhere is also annoying, and leads to overuse of casts and/or accidental truncation.

Fortunately, memory allocation in Rust is easier, and the whole `malloc(elem * size)` chore just doesn't exist.
> a user they don't know the age of

It's even worse. The account signed a EULA saying they are over 13, and this account most likely also happens to be shared between the parent and their kid, so the explicit video being watched aside, it's impossible to tell if the phone is currently in the hand of the parent or the kid, constantly going back and forth.

The solution they're going to implement is to treat anyone watching a "kid" video as a kid. Not only is this going to hit creators hard, but the "kid on their parents phone" could still watch non-kid videos and they would get tracked...

It's a really messy solution. It's like if we started suing porn sites for every minor on their website that lied about being 18.

I think it's implied that zero percent of normal people want to see society "burned to the ground"

Edit: after re-reading that part of the article I'm not sure anymore. I can't tell if the questions were phrased to imply a serious destructive desire or if "burn it down" was passable as "I'm discontent with life". Might have to read the paper itself to clarify.

Mind sharing which company you work for? I'm interested in scaling contextual, privacy-focused publisher targeting solutions.

On the PG/PMP side, the usage is obvious, but I'm also curious what it will take for publisher-provided data to be trusted in the open exchange environment where historically advertisers and DSPs have tended to not trust the publisher-supplied categorization.

Well, sadly, it's of course violence. The basic contract of government is you give up some liberty for safety (Hobbes), i.e. you don't go around robbing people, and the government will see that no one else goes around robbing you. But this sort of first form of government was inflexible, and if you wanted to change it you basically had to kill the people in charge. The chief innovation of liberal government was "self governance", and the trade there was "OK, we'll listen to you, you don't have to murder us to effect change". Practically everyone does this via some form of voting.

But as soon as that contract breaks down, i.e. the government stops listening to you, then that contract is breached and generally trouble starts. It gets (arguably) even worse if the government falls entirely, because then you get the kind of lawless marauding you had before any government.

2FA (through an third-party like an email provider or, even, dare I say it, an SMS provider; not TOTP) continues to protect you when your password is compromised by a backend-side database breach. They might get your password; they might get your TOTP token seed; but there's nothing in the DB that will allow them to receive an email as you and then click the link in said email.

Yes, allowing someone to reset their password through a second factor is bad; but that's not 2FA, that's two independent 1FAs.

I believe that `strictFunctionTypes` only applies to callbacks. TypeScript is okay with the following code even with that option turned on:

class Animal {}
class Cat extends Animal { meow() {} }
class Dog extends Animal { woof() {} }

function foo(animals: Animal[]) {
animals.push(new Dog)
}

const cats: Cat[] = [new Cat];

foo(cats);

So basically all kid content creators are going to be hit hard once this goes into effect, and we'll get another wave of backlash about "Youtube is killing our channel"

The trickier part is "all age" content. Even something like Minecraft, which at the surface is aimed at kids, I know many adults who watch and play the game... Are all Minecraft streamers screwed?
Suspect Joe Rogan has also been a fair influence too. His podcast has a massive and varied fan base, and he's a pretty consistent promoter of the benefits of psychedelics.
I think it also really comes down to what videos or audio you listen to. In other words, the person delivering the audio and its quality.

I listen to most non-entertainment videos / podcasts at 1.5x and I would say about 80% of them are completely ok to comprehend from a "can I easily listen to this without struggling to figure out what they are saying at a language level". But as soon as I try 2x, that drops down to maybe 30-50% because the person speaking isn't speaking clear enough, they have an accent that overpowers any type of comprehension ability on my part or the audio quality is too poor and it introduces too many artifacts.

Sometimes I ask my friends to watch the same video at 2x to see if they can comprehend it and often times they can't (but sometimes they can). We're all in the same area.

I generally find a neutral accent and very clear annunciation helps the most. I've had a bunch of people say they've watched my videos / courses at 2x without issues because apparently I have no accent which is something I've heard from a number of people in different countries where English isn't their native language. I find it interesting because I've also heard a decent amount of people say I speak very fast at 1.0x speed, so I do believe accents and annunciation has at least some role in this.

Does anyone know of any software where you can feed it an English audio sample and it spits back the number of syllables per second? Seems like a pretty cool potential ML project.
If memory serves this has been one of Doctorow's arguments the whole time:

The US burns about 60 million tons of jet fuel per year.

The US produces about 300 million tons of municipal solid waste per year, 360 million tons of corn, 130 million tons of hay. These are only some of the biomass streams in the US economy.

It's not at all out of the question that the entire US jet fuel consumption could be produced with biomass-derived carbonaceous materials. The energy yield could be increased with extra hydrogen input, so carbohydrates could undergo hydrodeoxygenation (as in the Virent process, which can produce a drop-in replacement for current jet fuel).

Yeah, I didn't find this article all that informative. What does that mean, anyway? It could mean that our current society is irredeemably bad (not unthinkable if you're not a middle to upper class white person) and that only a revolution can create a better society. Or it could be just pure nihilism. (I recall "guys we memed a president into existence" being the top comment on /r/thedonald's celebration post after the election.)
The tribalism is mostly grist for entertainment media, though. NC bathrooms are national news.

> they don't show the code working in any sort of broader context

If you’re testing a REST interface, then how much additional context you need? They’re supposed to be stateless, so they can be tested in isolation just fine, because that’s how they’re supposed to operate. Or does it stop being a unit test once your test includes DB interaction?

For your typical web app, front end testing is the primary place you need anything more complicated, and even then you could debate how much of that should be manual.
The price problem is because the batteries are so expensive, but they are rapidly getting cheaper. They dropped 35& in 2018. The experts say around 2023 ev's will be sticker-price comparable with ice autos at the high end, and in succeeding years move down the line to smaller ones.

The auto industry realizes this is going to happen, and much of it is scrambling like crazy to be ready when it happens.
(from https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0468569/characters/nm0000323) one of my favorite movie quotes:

Bruce Wayne : Criminals aren't complicated, Alfred. Just have to figure out what he's after.

Alfred Pennyworth : With respect Master Wayne, perhaps this is a man that you don't fully understand, either. A long time ago, I was in Burma. My friends and I were working for the local government. They were trying to buy the loyalty of tribal leaders by bribing them with precious stones. But their caravans were being raided in a forest north of Rangoon by a bandit. So, we went looking for the stones. But in six months, we never met anybody who traded with him. One day, I saw a child playing with a ruby the size of a tangerine. The bandit had been throwing them away.

BW : So why steal them?

AP : Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

So, how do you deal with such man?

BW : The bandit, in the forest in Burma, did you catch him?

AP : Yes.

BW : How?

AP : We burned the forest down.
I'm not familiar with the Canadian or US perspective, but at least in Australia we've had the native title act for 25 years which recognises the rights of Aboriginal people to manage land they've had a traditional connection to in a manner consistent with the traditional customs and laws of the interested party. Just as in this case relating to the Soviets, laws have been passed to help right a moral/legal wrong of dispossession and just as in this case the situation is made complex by modern conflicting use of the property.

The moral principle is sound. That the situation of each petitioner under any mildly related system are inconsistent and varied is to be expected. Everyone's circumstances are different.
I've noticed recently that very few people in my circles on Facebook seem to be sharing their own posts. Mostly it's resharing another article of some kind, one they probably found through an ad on Facebook itself. So between the ads Facebook sends me, and the ones my friends forward on, literally 90% of my feed is ads.
Cool idea, I like it
I enjoyed reading the book "the honest truth about dishonesty" by Dan Ariely.

The section on how pharmaceutical companies work with doctors was eye opening. It is relatively easy to manipulate even a very honest person's loyalty.

It also seems so open to interpretation, what it means to burn society to the ground, and how (if at all, which I suspect not) are they controlling for hyperbole and whimsy?

Edit: actually, I won't delete my comment, but I really don't want to be the guy that skims a * Vice article and comments like he's thought of something the author's of the underlying haven't. I remain sceptical, but acknowledge that 'whaddoiknow'.
america's global presence in commerce is the backbone of american finance's global domination. nearly every country in world has a mcdonalds, starbucks, microsoft, ford and gm and the hundreds of thousands of enterprises ranging from family businesses to faceless behemoths and they all need FX and cash management and funding and commodity hedging and capital raising and securitization and nearly everything else.

which other country extends its commercial presence like this? the germans and the european banks (because german companies fund in euros) come to mind - coba, bnp, credit ag - but (1) german industry is not quite as big as the american industry (2) even the american supermarket-style banks like citi compete aggressively in this space.

> Astonishingly, this mostly works out fine. In fact, just indexing is very likely to beat any sort of actively managed funds after taking fees into account. That's kind of incredible when you think about it.

Well, what also works fine is picking (enough) random stocks and buying them for an equal amount of money.

That index funds base the allocation on market share is (in my understanding) not a method to increase performance, but to greatly simplify any rebalancing of the stock allocation. If the price of a stock changes, an index fund does have to do anything. The allocation will always automagically reflect the market cap of the stock - more or less by definition.

Every other allocation (e.g. equal weight) would need to rebalance every now and then to return to the initial allocation. This can be complicated and/or costly. However, it might still perform better than the market cap index: https://www.realizeyourretirement.com/comparison-sp-500-inde... (of course it might perform worse in the future).
In Germany it used to be that the "protest parties" (usually on the far right) would get perhaps 10 % of the vote. Currently, AfD is at 20 - 25 % in the polls.
The way I heard it was that Cargo was intentionally avoiding being a complete build system. The idea being that Make et al would still be used when necessary so build.rs (and cargo in general) could be free to concentrate on managing the Rust parts exclusively.

Think of plugins for applications like Autodesk Maya. Currently these are either cross-platform, but very slow Python plugins, or fast native DLLs which need to be compiled for each app-version/OS/CPU combination.

If Maya had an embedded WASM runtime it could support plugins which are fast (at least much closer to native speed than Python scripts), and you only need to distribute a single WASM blob.
> 40 percent concurred with the thought that "When it comes to our political and social institutions, I cannot help thinking 'just let them all burn' "; and 40 percent also agreed that "we cannot fix the problems in our social institutions, we need to tear them down and start over."

Hard not to sympathize with this perspective when:

- The people running the country lie us into an unending, ruinous war with help from the establishment media, and no one is held to account.

- The people running the country demolish the economy with unsustainable debt-driven speculation, and no one is held to account.

- The people running the country openly associate with a convicted trafficker of children, who conveniently dies in prison before naming any names and while the cameras were "inoperable" and the guards asleep and his cellmate transferred out at just the right moment, and (just wait for it!) no one is held to account.

"Let them all burn" may not be the right answer, but at the very highest levels our political and social institutions are rotten to the core.

Yep. As far as I’m accustomed most people do whatever they can to maintain their phone numbers even across services. So much so that it’s law in Canada a provider can’t lock in your number and must let you take it with you to another provider.
Some people say writing is better because typing is "unnatural", but from an evolutionary standpoint both are extremely, equally unnatural activities. There's no reason moving a cylinder of graphite with one hand should be inherently better matched to the brain than moving squares of plastic with two.

My personal guess is that, with fast typing speeds, it's too easy to just copy things word for word. With writing, you have to at least rephrase it and reorganize it to fit the notes reasonably on the page, which forces some processing to occur. I take notes solely by typing, but I only have retention if I do it slowly and reflectively.

Where are you from if people think you don't have an accent, if you don't mind me asking?
And yet, if all you do is wash + cook Cassava, you'll die in relatively short order - since there's a good amount of cyanide in there. Wikipedia has a small section [0] on how it's prepared 'in the wild':

> A safe processing method known as the "wetting method" is to mix the cassava flour with water into a thick paste and then let it stand in the shade for five hours in a thin layer spread over a basket. In that time, about 83% of the cyanogenic glycosides are broken down by the linamarase; the resulting hydrogen cyanide escapes to the atmosphere, making the flour safe for consumption the same evening.

> . The traditional method used in West Africa is to peel the roots and put them into water for three days to ferment. The roots then are dried or cooked.

How easy are either of those to discover? Especially since low levels of cyanide consumption doesn't have immediate health effects.

>Oil is not going away this century.

No, it is going to go away. That is because most governments are scared to death of global climate change and are passing laws to do away with fossil fuel consumption. It's not happening all at once, but basically as fast as the technology comes into place to replace fossil fuels.
Software is also a really immature field. Software development is not an industrial process, it's more like craftsmanship. Part of it comes from the fact the field is relatively young, but also because in software, it is extremely easy to modify to suit new needs and to fix introduced mistakes which results in an inherent instability of design and no strong patterns.

It's getting better, but it's still present.

For example, nearly each source tree I've seen has its own idiosyncrasies in term of organization and layout.

Are the tests in ./test/ or ./tests/? how do I run the tests? where do you put the headers? ./inc/? ./include? what are the options available at compile time? how are they exposed? what are the install targets? does it support the usual variables (looking at you DESTDIR)?

Granted more modern languages tend to be more normalized than the previous examples which are valid for C/C++ mainly. But these questions still applies. For example, the Go projects I've seen tend to vary wildly in term of compile tool chain, some have nothing, just run go build, other have a ./build.sh and the better ones have a basic Makefile which is generally not so great (no variable present to override the path to the go binary or set some compilation variables, no proper install target, very weird handling of the ./vendor/ directory in some cases).
