According to one analysis [1], working for Uber pays $8.80-$11 per hour (after subtracting car related expenses).

The federal minimum wage is $7.25/hr. But certain cities are much higher, for example New York City is $15.00. In San Francisco, it’s $15.59.

Also worth mentioning that most of these averages are not taken from drivers working full-time (40 hours per week). So while they may be able to make near minimum wage on an hourly basis, they may not be able to achieve that hourly rate for a full 40 hours per week due to fluctuating demand for rides.

There was a discussion of how to permanently (100.000 years or more) mark a dangerous site. Creative solutions abounded. I like the one where it kills you quickly, so it stays obvious that the site is dangerous. Better than killing thousands slowly over many years!
I can think of something worse: sending all your DNS queries to an unregulated third party.
The AMD bulldozer was a "Clustered MultiThreading" chip somewhat as you describe in that certain units were shared between what would normally have been a core. It was a bit of a disaster though as it was more "cut down and share what's left" than "keep and share".

I have a feeling it'd be hard to find something that is easier to route and schedule over multiple cores than it is to just add that extra unit to a single core. AMDs latest CPUs are a good example of this, the L3 cache isn't even contiguous across all cores in the same core complex anymore (same access pattern as if you went to a completely different chiplet).
Mmm that was not our policy. I worked in Italy, so maybe there are different rules for different countries. But something like trying it out for 2 weeks, then coming back and getting a refund or switching it (for example for a different color) was never ever allowed.

NIST has said that 2FA via SMS is bad and awful for at least 3 years now. Can we knock it off, already?

This won’t stop SIM swaps, but it will blunt their impact by rather a lot.
How decisions are made in Mozilla? By whom? Is there public discussion beforehand?
You don't understand what a p-value is.

> a P < 0.05 means that there is less than a 5% chance that the null hypothesis is true.

In other words, P(H0 | X) where H0 is the null hypothesis being true and X is the data observed. But that is not what a p-value is, they actually represent P(X | H0).

I find marketing pretty unethical. Manipulation of emotions and the brain to sell stuff.

Commodities seem harmless, but brainwashing people to buy moderate quality products at luxury prices is horrifying.
I mean as long as you can keep healthy as the guys in that article, why not?

I can already imagine the beautiful life I'm going to have if I only need to sleep 4-5 hours. Getting up at 4:30AM, brew some coffee and make breakfast, sit down at 5:00AM and code for like 3 hours. Then I'd workout a bit, take a shower and go to work.

My job is pretty demanding at the moment so I'd rather do the more interesting stuffs in the morning instead of after work (I usually arrive at home around 7pm so it's a bit tough).
To add to this, the problem with t-tests in not the threshold. It is that the hypothesis you are rejecting (effect is exactly 0.0000000...) is infinitesimaly small. You've rejected basically nothing of your hypothesis space.

Your null should have a width. You should always be rejecting "effect is greater than some margin" which you should have to argue is greater than any bias you might expect in your experiment. There are always at least tiny biases.
But that is not what happens in the code shown in TFA.

Passing a large value into the method shown in the article will do nothing nefarious (assuming sizeof(size_t) >= sizeof(int)). It will either return a large allocation, or, more likely, fail because the amount of requested memory is too large.

If you have a narrowing/casting bug somewhere else in your program, which BTW would produce an obvious warning, that would of course cause trouble as you have described.

And while mixing signed and unsigned arithmetic for buffer sizes is, of course, a recipe for desaster, I think it's incorrect to claim that the allocatebufs method shown in TFA has a "backdoor" because of this. I feel that is a bit like saying memcpy has a backdoor because you might get your pointer arithmetic wrong when calling it.
Read it again, it states over 100 sizes of paper. ;)
Incorrect: Lomborg's position is that climate change is happening, he just thinks that a) the effects will not as catastrophic as claimed and b) most of our efforts to fight it are meaningless wastes of money.

T-Mobile lets you set a PIN that you have to present if you want to port your number or get a new SIM. They sent out mass texts about it a couple of years ago.
You can look up how much ISPs give to politicians to see how cheap it really is. 4.3M is a royal sum.

Of course only 21% of the public favours abolishing private insurance. There's been a huge and incredibly well-funded PR campaign to persuade them of that.

https://theintercept.com/2018/11/20/medicare-for-all-healthc...

Americans don't need to be irrational - they just need to be misled about the relative benefits of taxes vs the personal security and relief that could be provided by paying higher taxes.

The reality is that the private medical insurance industry in the US is the single biggest cause of personal bankruptcy, and is responsible for incredible emotional and financial suffering. It takes a lot of spin - not to mention outright dishonesty - to paint that as a good thing.

But when the industry makes as much money as it does, the costs of generating that spin are relatively cheap compared to the profits it secures.

Meanwhile in those countries groaning under the yoke of oppressive taxation, there is absolutely no popular support for moving to the "benefits" of a US system.

Because there are no benefits. And that's a straightforward, simple, unarguable fact. Not only are higher taxes absolutely worth the value they buy - guaranteed health care, with no worries about bankruptcy or "competitive" price gouging - but the total cost over a lifetime, inclusive of taxes, is vastly lower than the equivalent cost in the US system.

Как набрать вторую карму
People love to hear good news about their bad habits. I guess all those studies that took years of work and got published in peer review scientific journals like Nature, all the latest reports from the UN.

All of that goes out of the window because some guy decided to "do some number crunching". Well, what qualifies him to speak on these matters, where are his results?

Where they published in a peer-reviewed journal, does he have any idea what he is talking about? Did he take into account the consequences of the deforestation needed to produce meat, animal methane emissions?

What this guy is saying is in complete contradiction to mainstream scientific magazines and the UN.

Why should we listen to this guy just because he is telling us us what we want to hear?

It costs about $400 per year in time and money to file a tax return, so a multi thousand $ lifetime exemption seems ballpark good price.
It's not low-gear though. I feel bad after 8 hours. Not refreshed, stiff to a point of pain, hard to focus and so so tired like i haven't slept for days. If I manage 5 hours I wake up refreshed and stay like that most of the day. I don't particularly like the whole "quota" system. I want to sleep as much as I sleep without thinking about it too much. Most times my body will just wake up by itself after about 5 hours anyway, before any alarms ring but sometime it doesn't.

Firstly, if you run out of 4 stash tabs during the story you're picking up way too much. Easy mistake to make, but POE drops way too much loot and most of it is useless. If you're attempting to sell what you've found in the story you're also just wasting space.

Supporter packs aren't there for value, they are there as a "supporter pack". You buy it to give money to the dev, and you get some cosmetics, as well as most of the price of the pack as premium currency, which you can spend on more cosmetics, or stash tabs. I'd argue that character MTX isn't even worth spending money on given the amount of flashy skills and effects there are, that obscure your character, but that's a different argument.

If you're happy to pay $60 up-front for the game, why not just buy the stash tabs and be happy? $60 buys you more than you'll ever fill up.

As someone who played for ~3 years before dropping a dime on the game, I have to say I don't see the "quirks" other than stash space. The only other incentive is the regular "spend points to get a free box" where everyone just spends the equivalent of $0.50 on a bug to get theirs, using up the leftover points they had.
The Handshake Network wants to reinvent DNS

This is great, especially since modern cell phones are not that revolutionary anymore and should be fairly static in terms of parts. In theory you should be able to upgrade your fairphone in a few years with new parts, like you can with a PC.
Research redefines lower limit for planet size habitability
Memories are fleeting depending on a host of chemical balances, life changes, and other external factors. You can impress new thoughts on certain people without much effort. Gaslighting is a great example of imprinting new realities. On a greater scale, Your mind differentiates reality from non-reality with dreams. When your trip becomes indistinguishable from dreams, your mind is left pulling apart the pieces and making sense of everything. Traumatic events and major life changes can also leave your mind in a similar state.

I’ve been doing experiments with my wife to “inject” a different time in her head when I come to bed. My results are mixed during the moment, but she claims to everyone I come to bed at the time I’ve injected. I’m sure in a more controlled environment with patients one could “inject” anything that seems plausible to the naked eye
> Results indicate that switching to vegetarianism could save consumers 16% of the energy use and 20% of the greenhouse gas emissions related to their dietary consumption. However, if they re-spend the saved income according to their current preferences, they would forego 96% of potential energy savings and 49% of greenhouse gas emission savings.

This is based on swedish pricing. But meat is extremely cheap in America, where we also consume more meat than most other nations, and replacing it with vegetarian protein would probably cost me more money.

In any case, if I'm committed to changing my diet for the climate, I'll probably try to be conscientious in my other consumption habits, right?

All this paper really concludes is that reducing meat is very effective but that there are lots of other things that need to also be done.

Also what about if we replanted the animal farms with oxygen producing trees, etc?

this is nothing but theory, and I am willing to bet any studies will be against this theory.

I think the point is that while giving up meat might have a significant effect on your carbon footprint from food consumption, it will have a small effect on your overall carbon footprint. A carnivore who never take an airplane and bikes everywhere is going to have a smaller carbon footprint than a vegan who drives an SUV to work every day and jet sets around the world.

That being said, none of this is a good argument for not giving up meat.

Anyone have access to E.B. Gliner's 1966 paper describing a GEODE?
"Income up to $115k is untaxed and any other taxes you do pay are deductible."

It's not as simple as it first seems.

If you claim the foreign earned income exemption (FEIE) so you don't pay anything on the first $115k or whatever, then you can't claim a credit for all the taxes you paid in the country where you live. You can only claim a portion.

So, if your income goes up above some certain amount, you're better off (lower US tax bill) giving up the FEIE so you can get a credit for all foreign taxes paid.

But, if you do that, then you can't claim FEIE again within 5 years, unless you get special permission from the IRS. To apply for this permission (with no guarantee) you must pay a fee of a few thousand USD to the IRS.
A few years back one of the big Android sites did a comparison, some new Android phone vs the current iPhone vs some DSLR

They had people vote on the 'best' picture, and they always chose the sharpest one. You could clearly make out which camera took which photo. The biggest problem was that the DSLR was never focused right so it was blurry.

Since Amazon says it's not available until September 17th and you can only pre-order it now, I think probably even those 7 are records inaccurately registered before the book is actually there, and there are probably 0! Or did some libraries get the book earlier than Amazon can? Possible, but my guess is not.
What happens to the other 90%? Is this typical for book authors?
This is the 3rd version; their website doesn't list the previous two. Are parts still available? Can you fit the guts of the 3rd version into the shell of the 2nd?

I'm going to pay attention to this brand; it's very promising. But they still have a lot of work to do before its sustainable.
A physical cell phone is also something that is loosely associated with you, transferable and vulnerable to social engineering attacks.

SIM swapping is not always the result of social engineering attacks. There are bad actors that work for carriers who will knowingly fraudulently swap sims.

At least with something like Google Authenticator that can be done at scale, someone has to have your physical device and has to get past your hopefully secure pin code/finger print sensor/face id or use rubber hose decryption.
Ah, it makes total sense now! Thanks for taking the time to explain your thought process to a random stranger on the internet ;)

I'd say that the exposition in your post is very fitting for the purpose of proving it. The most elegant proofs are usually not the most enlightening.
Two comments deep and we’re solidly into red team vs blue team politics. Surely there’s a way to have an intelligent conversation about an interesting and relevant article without throwing a match into a pool of gasoline?
That’s a very unfair statement I think.

I think it would be very difficult to make something like Google docs or the rich text compose options in a new email without the ability to trigger actions on text selection and clipboard.

What I would like to see is a permission though, like when browsers ask for your location: "This site want's to manipulate your clipboard. Allow?"
That origination cost is added to the cost of harvest, transportation, refrigeration, distribution etc. Is it then so significant? That's the interesting question.

Because its one cost in a whole column of costs, reducing that entry is what makes it 'marginal'. Meaning, one part of a large total.

Then you may find that battery research and development is pretty surprising.
I don't think that what you are saying is correct.

If you ask the method to allocate a negative number of bytes and the method returns a buffer which is greater than zero, that doesn't seem like a backdoor in the allocation method!

Saying you can get a return buffer that is smaller than whatever amount of bytes you requested is wrong I think. Can you give an input to the second method that will result in a buffer smaller than the input value?
"Far-right fascists" This shows that you don't actually know what fascism is. PP is center-right, you only think that it is far-right because you are very far left.

The problem with talking about this era is that half the country believes that the republicans were blameless and the nationalists were the devil. Both sides freely executed suspected political enemies, but the left is unwilling to recognize this. If the republicans had won there would have been as many or more executions than under Franco's regime. There would have even been a chance that Spain became communist, which would have resulted in even more deaths.

Now, I agree with you on the lack of freedom of speech in Spain. But it censors the left as much as the right is censored in England or Germany. That is to say, the censorship is shameful but on the same level as the rest of Europe.

Google (image search) and Facebook (news feed) have both done this. Last time it came up I was able to find a screen shot of one of them but not the other, let me see if I can dig that up.

I don't think they did it deliberately, but I'd bet someone said "We could increase engagement if people didn't have to click anything to keep seeing more content" and nobody bothered to think about other design consequences of automatically expanding the content downward forever.
