I have multiple years of experience working with geospatial data across multiple domains including Business Intelligence, Data Visualization LiDAR analysis and surveying. My specialization is in Python-focused geospatial data science, with my most recent project having been a Power BI-based data visualization project illustrating the current state of connectivity in rural British Columbia.

I'm looking for a mid-level GIS Analyst position or a Jr. Developer position in the Greater Seattle Area. Feel free to send me a message if you've like to connect further or even grab an informal coffee.
Judaism is a religion as well as a race. Many Jews have characteristic traits like facial features that clearly show a shared ancestry. This is not the case with e.g. Christianity, where Christian races are all over the place. This is why Judaism is special in those regards.
No, what they are going nuts about is what it would be without discrimination in their favor.
Shut the fuck up you stupid bitch.
These numbers are next to meaningless, Harvard doesn't just accept people from the US, so we should be looking at population percentages of the world. I assume that people who don't fit in any category are shunted into one of them based on skin color. For example a Jamaican is, I assume, counted in the African American bucket, and compared against the African American population, even though they're neither American nor African. And as with all things race it's largely a question of how you draw the lines. Jamaicans are African Americans, white American Jews are separate from whites though. And who could say what bucket the billion people in India are in, Asian American maybe?
It is absurd that a judge would knowingly make a judgement that a higher court will overturn.

Apart from anything else a waste of taxpayer money.
Aren't Jews a race and a religion? Plenty of non religious Jews out there.
I thought about addressing that, as there is a huge scientific component behind baking, and if you could control every variable perfectly, you would get exactly the result you wanted.

However, reality is there are wayyy more variables than what you can find in a recipe, even a good one. And that's to say nothing of the techniques of master bakers. Compare a what a master does and what they're able to write down or tell someone and it's an enormous gap. That's where the art is.
I don't want to commute, but I do want to work in the same physical place as my coworkers.

"Missing out" is one reason, but not the biggest one. The biggest one is that I prefer to have a clear physical/psychological separation between being "at work" and "at home".

> systemd reads a random seed off disk just fine for you, no need to write any script for that. Problem with the approach is that it's waaaay too late: we can only credit a random seed read from disk when we can also update it on disk, so that it is never reused. This means /var needs to be writable, which is really later during boot, long after we already needed entropy, and long after the initrd

I understand in general why seed reuse is bad. If an attacker can get access to two things that used the same seed, that attacker can often learn things that the randomness was suppose to make unlearnable.

In this particular case, though, I wonder if that is actually a problem. If the seed is used before you have writable storage, and then the system is rebooted without writable storage ever becoming available (and so before the seed could be updated), and then the system reuses that seed on the next boot--the only way an attacker can get access to two things that used the same seed is if something that used it on the first boot has persisted somewhere.

Since there was no local writable storage the first time, this can only happen if the results of using the seed were communicated off the system, via networking or via a terminal, to someplace that did have working writable storage.

Thus, it would seem, that if you block networking with other machines and terminal access until /var becomes writable and the seed is updated, there is no problem with seed reuse.

I've thought that inserting IVs is something that nurses struggle with a lot and maybe could be automated. It would be an absolute nightmare to develop that robot though, as you'd have to go through all of the medical device certification on top of dealing with all of the edge cases of human anatomy.
I think the debate from progressives is the definition of the term discriminate. We all agree choosing an unqualified person over a person who is qualified based on their race is discrimination. However is it discrimination to choose the diverse candidate when presented with two candidates that are equally qualified in every other regard? Because that is often the situation. There is no shortage of people who are qualified to get into Harvard or capable of succeeding there.
That is correct, at least in regards to how the statistics were gathered:

"To ensure that we did not overlook religiously unengaged Jews, we asked students for their religion and whether they considered themselves Jewish aside from religion; then, we asked about their parents’ religious identities. Students who considered themselves Jewish in any way were counted in our estimates." -- https://ejewishphilanthropy.com/how-many-jewish-undergraduat...

"Jewishness in the United States is considered an ethnic identity as well as a religious one." -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Jews#Religion
I am involved in this project. The aim is to built a demonstration plant to show the feasibility of the process and to develop a blueprint for larger plants that can produce sustainable jet fuel economically. Producing sustainable fuels is always more expensive than fossil fuels. However, upcoming legislation and taxation (at least in the EU) will change this equation.

Someone mentioned an efficiency of around 50% in a post here and resulting pricing, that's a fairly good estimate of the overall process and what is discussed as achievable cost for renewable synthetic fuels in general. The process is in this demonstration plant is Fischer-Tropsch. Using CO2 from an industrial point source is more efficient; however, it has potential legislative issues when it comes to certification of sustainable fuels, emission certificate trading... it's a fairly complicated topic. In addition, worldwide potential for lowest renewable energy costs does not correlate necessarily with existing CO2 point sources. That's why direct air capture makes a lot of sense.

Whether CCS is a better solution depends on renewable electricity pricing vs. the CCS costs, public acceptance and feasibility at the location of a plant. These vary strongly depending on where you are in the world. In many parts of Europe there is strong opposition to it as it may prolong the exploitation of fossil sources.
It will almost certainly be overturned on appeal, in appellate court if not the SCOTUS.
I was under the impression that Jews commonly don't think of themselves as being white whereas the rest of the 'white' groups did. Maybe I'm wrong? Jewishness is a more closely knit identity which Jews are lucky enough to have, whereas even whiteness is an ever expanding identity leaving many white people with nothing but 'American'.
That doesn't pass the smell test.

Ask pretty much any Asian(-American) I know, myself included, and none of them would choose to switch places with a Latino or Black friend who went to the same college and has a similar job, because we all know the problems are overall worse on the other side.

Racism against Asians in the US gets less coverage because it's generally less bad.
What other Asian countries in the present day are frequently accused of stealing IP? I don't get how you're arriving at it being a broadly Asian thing, when it's quite specifically a Chinese phenomenon. Conflating China to mean "all Asians" is pretty racist in and of itself.

There's no way that you can form a tally from the sum total of a person's entire lineage in order to equalize them according to their ancestors struggles. Attempts to do this seem mostly to act as a laundering scheme for financial privilege. Now all someone from a wealthy family needs to do to justify their admission to elite institutions is to find some great great grandparent who plausibly suffered a systemic injustice.

I see the good intentions here, but I get the impression that well meaning rule oriented people are being used to further the very injustices they mean to solve.
How many American military personnel would just be OK with being told by the President to take property rights and freedoms like that? Do you think they're mind-controlled idiots? It doesn't just suddenly happen, we don't have a totalitarian mindset, it would have to be very gradual and against people who are demonized as immoral or as a scourge on society, like Mexicans or Jews or liberals or Christians. Even then it's so easy to spread news and there's so many people with guns and easy accessibility that it's just going to happen unless we become a more complacent fascist country.
Yeah, it's such a superficially obvious "hack" that zero regulators would fall for it.

Zoning regulations might just be unenforced unless someone complains. I mean, when was the last time the town just showed up at your house for a regular audit to check you're using your house for it's zoned purpose? I've never heard of that.
The government has plenty of generators for emergency scenarios like that. It's a bootstrap problem, but not an insurmountable one.
I would argue that Multics security was due more to the ring and gate hardware architecture, that security was designed into the software from day 0 (rather then being grafted in afterwards), and code review practices.

Reading the Multics B2 security analysis reveals that the review team did find security holes in Multics which were fixed as part of the review process.

Recently, a buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the Multics CKermit implementation, despite it's being written in PL/I.

Security is hard, and is achieved through good programming, not by (just) trusting tools.

Harvard and UC are trying to do different things. Harvard is trying to admit the future leaders of the world, so it can point to them and say “They are Harvard men.” UC is trying to give an academically rigorous education to the most academically qualified students.
IANAL as always, but in my understanding loopholes are less effective in civil law systems (that is, all continental Europe) as the intent of the law is what matters, not the exact wording that created a loophole.
Far as I can tell you get to claim it's a robot if it doesn't require human intervention to do its job. Even if that job is a relatively simple one.

Of course the popular meaning requires a lot more autonomy than just not requiring human intervention, but in a factory that distinction is pointless.
Bakke established that specific quotas are not legal, but race as one of multiple factors is permissible. If Harvard's admissions policies include any kind of quota, they will probably be ruled illegal.

> Using Intel CPU's and simultaneously saying, "but we can't trust RDRAND because could be backdoored" is completely insane.

The main difference is that the behavior of the rest of the CPU is deterministic, so it can be verified. When you use the ADD instruction, the output will always be the sum of its inputs; when you use the RDRAND instruction, the output comes from a black box which is supposed to mix internal non-deterministic noise sources in a non-reversible way. How can you distinguish a correct RDRAND from a malicious or broken one which generates its output in a reversible way or based on a fixed key, since the apparent output (an arbitrary number) is the same in both cases?
All of our development (software, mechanical, electrical, marketing, etc.) is done at our headquarters in Redwood City, CA.

The parts come from all over the world, I don't know the exact breakdown of country of origin. Assembly, testing, and shipping all happens from Redwood City. Eventually, it might become necessary to move some of that work overseas, but we really enjoy the rapid development and iteration speed that comes from having the assembly line across the street from the engineers.
I'm saying that white people have inherited a lot of wealth at the cost of black people. Wealth statistics clearly show this. The average black family is 10x poorer then the average white family. The stealing was done through Jim Crow, slavery, red lining, etc.

If you inherit money that your parents stole, that money is taken away from you by the police and given back to the person it was stolen from.

In this case, white people's ancestors stole from black people, and therefore, white people should take responsibility for that and pay back black people since they are still benefiting from that theft at the cost of black people today who would have otherwise inherited the stolen wealth.
I wonder what judges and people would think if Asians started an Asian majority/conscious university?

To me this seems like a slippery slope.
The headline seems a bit clickbait. Obviously affirmative action discriminates against those who don't get in to make room for the favoured minority. But the court said

>Ultimately, the Court finds that Harvard has met its burden of showing that its admissions process complies with the principles articulated by the Supreme Court in Fisher II...

which is different.
The first line of the opinion's conclusion is that Harvard's admissions process survives strict scrutiny. If it were found to be dependent on quotas, this would likely not be the case, based on the previously mentioned well established precedent.

What do you mean they don't touch your drive? Do they just give you a blank disk with no bootable OS (in which case, doesn't that mean you yourself are now responsible for seeding when you install the OS)? I know whenever I've dealt with a cloud VM, it's come with an OS set up by the vendor, but if it's not, then the OS installer needs to seed the image. So my point is, whoever sets up the system seems responsible for seeding it. If AWS gives me a VM, I expect it to come seeded with a unique number, and of course I don't expect them to touch anything after giving me control. Anything I set up beyond that is my responsibility to seed properly. I don't understand why this would be a drama.
