I think his "hack" is something far simpler than having a co-conspirator. As he helped setup the live streaming system, he also installed a piece of software that nicely calculates what to do at every step and simply sends him his own percentage calculation. This is far more difficult to detect and would require reverse engineering the entire system end to end to find the culprit. It could be anything from a backdoor in the RFID system to an AI that reads the video stream when it gets sent into OBS. There are tons of vectors that could easily be setup. I very much hope that the resolution here isn't just a Civil penalty but that the FBI gets involved and he goes to jail.
Honestly, I don't see what public transmission has to do with it.

Either "advertising" should be considered a "free speech" issue from the point of view of the broadcaster -- that they have the "free speech" to allow/disallow whatever ads they want -- whether because of vulgarity, quality, competition, political alignment, whatever they want, including charging different ads different rates if they so choose.

Or we consider advertising space a "free speech" issue from the point of view of advertisers, that any and all advertising on TV, cable, newspapers, magazines, etc. should be equally available to the highest bidder. Thus a newspaper should not be able to discriminate against an advertiser because of vulgarity, competition, quality, brand alignment, etc.

It's actually a really thorny issue because there are really good arguments on both sides.
> The real problem is that car oriented development scales very poorly, and there are few or maybe no easy ways to adapt it to accommodate either higher density or more traffic from more horizontal adjacent growth.

Hmm. And what would be the result of that? It might be that cities become more expensive. And I keep reading about how American cities are too expensive, and how the lack of affordability is causing all kinds of negative sociological effects. Could the car focus be the root cause of that?

It looks like this was shortly preceded by https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=19... which was an exploration of the fact that making a call induces RTP data processing on a recipient device during a call, prior to the recipient answering.

That 'seems' innocuous (and both Signal and WebRTC had reasonable arguments around expecting that behaviour) but this follow-up exploit looks more serious, and the researcher is correct to note how an expanded attack surface can lead to problems like this :/
It's not 0, it's "an unknown positive number" drawn arbitrarily from a set whose lower bound is 0. It's practically 0, but it's some fixed positive number for every instance of the game.

It's equivalent to this much simpler game: "I am going to give you a positive real-number amount of dollars." No matter what I do, you will win money playing this game, guaranteed! Now, how much would you pay to play this game? $0, because for any amount you'd pay to play, I could arbitrarily choose to give you less in winnings.

Like most problems involving infinity, it's unintuitive/paradoxical because it pretends to model a physically plausible scenario but actually doesn't.
People need to know when to update. Disclosure provides an incentive to do so, especially in corporate eenvironments.

Hackers on the other hand don't need to be informed, they can always look for juicy bugs the moment fixes are rolled out.
When I'm concerned about security, I run an OS that is not Linux. When there's nothing critical on a system (from a security perspective), I run Linux. Why would I care if someone hacks my machine and gets my browsing history? Half the companies in SV already have it.

Outside of Pokémon and Ingress - interacting with AR through a tiny phone screen still seems gimmicky and only mildly helpful.

Yes, thank you. You can reach me at the email in my user profile. I'd love to hear from you.
Unless you are playing at the absolute elite levels you do not need to perfectly calculate your own range or another persons. But yes, the better you get the more complicated the math is.
I don't see how there's much difference, it's like arguing that a library isn't "banning" a book because they refused to carry it in the first place.
I'm also a long-time desktop Linux user. Since 2003. I'd say that my average linux desktop computer has about half and half repo and non-repo software. I can't imagine limiting myself to just what was in the repos. There's only a tiny fraction of software in those even including personal repos like ubuntu's PPA system.
Only very old versions of the library are supported by those older compilers. My library is targeting the C++20 standard, so currently the only compile version that can compile it is clang with the concepts branch.

The exploits mentioned in the articles were narrow votes with thin quorums.

You can require a larger quorum, at the expense of not always being able to get business done.

You can require all motions to be introduced at a previous meeting or anyway published before the meeting at the expense of not being able to complete business quickly. (This is commonly required for local governments in California, at least)
Then I have a misunderstanding of EU regulation on the matter. Is it entirely new right of way construction or upgrades?

In the US the last giant scale build-out was permitted before the EPA or Army Corps of Engineers had any regulatory teeth on the matter. Most projects since have been lane additions or incremental extensions. Loops have been built, but are politically easier since they only need to make one metro area happy. There's only been a handful of "new" interstates built since then (at a substantially higher cost). Much of the originally planned interstate system (that was to be a later phase) just never got built.
I had some similar thoughts.

Out of curiosity, the original 1876 edition [1] doesn't include membership votes as requiring 2/3rds, but also doesn't directly address membership votes of that sort (and leaves that to a body's rules).

It also uses the word "abstain" twice, but does not yet formalize abstentions.

The 1915 edition, however definitely includes Vote to Expel Members as requiring a 2/3rds vote [2]. (It also doesn't seem to codify abstentions, other than generally allow for them [blank ballots in a balloted vote].)

I'm also wondering if that "24 abstentions", which seems wildly high, if accurate. That's a lot of people not to care which way the vote went. Keep in mind that absentee ballots, and absent members, are very different from abstentions (and absent members do not count as abstentions, because they were not even present for the vote).

This is one of the worst comments I have seen on HN. I don't think you actually checked any evidence before commenting.

I have played poker professionally for more than 10 years and I am 100% sure he was cheating.

It's not that he is playing well and making good reads. Actually often he plays like shit but happens to make some correct decisions postflop. Decicions that in long run would be really bad but in those cases were perfect. One nice example is where he went allin preflop with 45o against two players who both had AK.

Please check some of the streams and come back here to comment. You can start from Doug Polk videos. If you don't see that he is cheating then you are not a winning player and probably never have been.
It's not probability 0, it's a number greater than 0 *but it's impossible to prove a lower bound greater than 0".

So, 0 in the real (ha!) world.
There are hands that make this virtually impossible. In one well-known hand where both his opponents have AKo and Postle goes all in. AKo is a very good hand, but it's a much worse hand if two people hold it. Even if Postle had magic face-reading abilities that allow him to always discern good and bad hands, it's absurd to claim he can read exact rank and suit from faces.
This is a different problem. Cards are finite. The OP problem is infinite.
> I’m pretty much the same way. Ambient people sounds—unless really loud/intrusive—are fine. And I sometimes even probably prefer to silence/isolation.

Interestingly that relates to one of the few acoustic design points I remember from an architecture paper I failed decades ago.

The point was about Libraries, and how you shouldn't design their acoustics to be as quiet as possible. When something is really quiet, small noises like someone getting up can be very disturbing. While if you design them to have an audible but muffled background murmour where details/sources can't be picked out subconsciously, people will be disturbed less when sounds do happen.
Nobody actually reads people in poker. What the actually do is categorize different players into different player types based om hiw they play and then they exploit their suboptimal strategy. Sometimes someone flinches or looks nervous but generally that actually means they have a really good hand not a bad one.
In basic terms, wealth is about time. Poor people, regardless of the relative wealth or advancement in the society they live in, have most of their time purposed for them.

Wealthy people purpose most of their time.

The majority struggling are poor in this sense.

That is unnecessary.

As a species, yes! We are doing well.

No argument.

Here, right now, in the US, a majority suffer. Their income is not up to their cost and risk exposure, particularly with health care.

They labor too much.

I could go on.

Massive gains have not played out as solid gains in life quality and wealth basics most would agree were set decades ago.
What does "equivalent power" even mean? It's completely useless without any qualifiers or specific metrics/goals.

My Nvidia GPU also doesn't run x86 programs at the speed of my desktop, but I never expected it to. It's true in the vacuous sense only.
You're ignoring the reality that most enterprise software is a tire fire (from a security standpoint) and that it's not feasible to secure hundreds (or even dozens!) of enterprise apps.

I don't have much advice for emotional issues but you could try taking stock of how the day went. What was good and what wasn't?

If you have trouble remembering you could keep notes about what you're doing while you work so you can review things later.

If you identify misses on your part, you could start digging into what didn't work, why, and what you could do in the future[0]. Like a mini retro for yourself. Hopefully you'll be able to catch when you're slipping on something and implement a strategy that helps you improve. Are there software tools you could build for yourself to give yourself guard rails or automate error prone tasks? Could you have applied your focus elsewhere to get different results? Do you have knowledge gaps anywhere?

This works for things that are going well too. Are there ways you can increase your velocity or bring helpful stuff to your team?

Keeping notes on tasks and issues talked about during meetings is really helpful too. It's easy to forget details if you get context switched out of things or lots of time passes. Pay attention to what business is doing and other teams are up to too. Sometimes you can see patterns and suggest things that help the larger org in nice ways.

Don't freak out - you got this!

With Arch / AUR even non-repo software feels like repo software.

However, on my ubuntu installs lately, I've found myself having to go with non-repo software for things that are in the repos. Because the repo version is just so far out of date. Version freezes with only security updates means lots of old software. I was loading my Arch configs on ubuntu and things were breaking. Update to current stable version and suddenly things work again. If i was stuck with repos, I would have just not used ubuntu at all.

Oh, that's neat.

Because if so, that's pretty cool.

I mean, I understand that most people don't particularly want to do that, but I still think it could be cool to have it as an option.
In general I agree. However let us say I own a website that I put ads on. It is my site, I pay for it. Should I have to allow ads for things I disagree with? I am not saying I know the answer here. It would be simpler to say "if you take paid for ads you are not allowed to turn down any ad that does not violate public guidelines". Does this apply to penis pills during kids cartoons? It is not an simpler answer.
Yes - to me the real revolution in AR will happen when we can walk around the real world and have ambient intelligence and visualization without having to drag a bunch of crap around with our fingers. Nobody wants to do that. They just want to be more intelligent - automatically.

The shopping experience is one of those, but to me, not anything like a killer app.
The insinuation is that lobbying is bribery (and on the more egregious end of the spectrum, it is). In countries where lobbying isn't legal, it would at least help much less.
We're looking at the specific decision of whether or not to have invested in cloud services, which the GP poster said the Google execs had looked into and made a decision that was clearly wrong, which should have been obvious even when they made it. AWS helped Netflix build a competitor to Prime Video, but if Amazon didn't have AWS, Netflix would have just used another vendor.
I’m genuinely curious. Does this app do anything that couldn’t be accomplished by a progressive web app?

Of those elements you list, only hydrogen and nitrogen are "lighter than air" (in the sense that they are commonly found in gaseous form with molecular weight below that of the air average).
The same is happening with the wild boar in Sweden. They're multiplying like there's no tomorrow. IIRC from the radio news item I heard, there's now 4x more car collisions with wild boars than with moose, which is a bit of an unusual situation here. Volvo may need to recalibrate their safety effort...

The national government here just announced a few days ago they'll allocate resources on streamlining Trichinella round-worm testing procedures and encouraging use of wild boar meat in restaurants, school food, fast food (McBoar, anyone?) etc. Many farmers have been complaining about ruined fields.
The sad part is users being trained to just click away those warnings. Installing one of the few big & trusted third party stores should not require me to go through the same warnings as getting an APK from some random third party page. Though obviously Google won't be willing to grant that much control to a third party, even if revocable.
> This is almost completely gibberish since you don't find atoms in isolation.

No you don't. You find them in molecules. Nowadays it is a bit tough to find the pure gases in our planet, but they are readily available in high quantities in our universe. In gaseous form, even.
I used to have a view of Central Park, and was amazed how it could literally change almost overnight as if someone exploded a can of paint over the Park.

And it was all the trees, not just some.

It seems like it took one night of good cold to bring it on, but I'm sure that's anecdotal at best.
Progressive lenses need much more accuracy to be fitted correctly. This means a mono-PD (separate PD for each eye, not just the distance PD halved) and also a height, usually from "datum" measured for each eye too. This measurement would be different depending on the frame and how it sits/adjusted to your face.

This means the frame must be chosen and fitted to you before any of these are measured.

It becomes a 2D measurement.

There is a lot more to it (vertex distance, pantoscopic tilt etc) but the above is the absolute minimum.
I'm not sure I fully understand your comment but I certainly wouldn't wager my money playing poker against the system you describe.
> However, you kind of want most memory usage to be in the kernel

I disagree on that one. More memory in the Kernel mean more chances for going OOM, more fragmentation of kernel memory, and less isolation and stability.

In the ideal case I would rather want the least possible amount of memory in the Kernel (and maybe have that all statically allocated) in order to maximize stability and determinism.
It is lacking in content. Sorry if I shared it too soon. I'll be taking pictures of my own vehicle and making a good clean build for myself this weekend.
The rules themselves on the subject:

> General Consent or Unanimous Vote. By general, or unanimous, or silent, consent the assembly can do business with little regard for the rules of procedure, as they are made for the protection of the minority, and when there is no minority to protect, there is little use for the restraint of the rules, except such as protect the rights of absent members, or the right to a secret vote. [1915 edition]

Don't forget that key that if there isn't a minority to protect, you don't need all the rules. Split the things that people actually need to discuss out of the stuff that is unanimous, move that the unanimous stuff be won by acclimation, and move on to the stuff that actually needs to be discussed. Even Robert's Rules says to do it. People like processes, and following processes to their logical extremes, but at the end of the day the process exists for a goal ("give minorities a voice", in this case), and outside of that goal/need becomes silly and overbearing, and it knows it which is why it has always had escape valves.

How does a dam like Hoover effect the flow rate of water down stream after filling the dam?

My assumption was that after the dam is filled the flow rate can be regulated very close to pre dam levels of at least 95% flow rate factoring in any losses due to evaporation.
You're assuming that we see everything that gets posted here. That's far from the case—there's far too much—so it's a non sequitur to conclude that if a bad comment shows up unmoderated, moderators are somehow allowing it. The likeliest explanation is that we didn't see it. Software can do some things, but I don't know how to write software that determines whether comments are right or wrong and kills the wrong ones. Do you?

On a large, open internet forum like HN, any banned user can create a new account and walk back in through the front door in 30 seconds—and many do. There will always be plenty of bad stuff getting posted. We do as much as we can, but we rely on users to flag comments and/or email us in egregious cases. As far as I can tell, you've never done either of those things, so I'm not really feeling your good faith here.

If the game is to find one shitty unflagged comment and pass it around as proof of moderator malfeasance, that's not a very interesting game. What's more interesting is that you had to go back over a year to find it. If anything, that rather suggests that your example is evidence of how little of that there is on HN, relative to other large open forums.

Meanwhile there are numerous cases of you treating others aggressively and being, frankly, an asshole on this site. You euphemize that as "impoliteness", but it's worse than mere impoliteness. It is community-poisoning. "I would take impoliteness over toxic ideology" is a non-argument—there is no good reason to have either. Using one to justify the other is bogus, and using it to justify your own mistreatment of others is cheap.

If you sincerely want to participate in the community here and do what you can to make it better—by following the guidelines, treating fellow community members respectfully, flagging egregious comments, and so on—that's great. You are welcome. But if you really don't want to do that, please don't post here. In particular, please don't take wrong comments by others—or comments that you feel are wrong—as an excuse to vent aggression.
I used this in a C++ big integer library I wrote in the '90s. One issue I came across is how to best handle it when the operands are different sizes. I asked on sci.math, but never found an answer. 10 years later, a similar question arose on gmp-discuss [1], also sans answer. The second message in that thread quotes my old sci.math post [2], which includes some experimental results that suggest that there are patterns here, but the patterns escaped me.

An introduction to forking web servers and multi-process concurrency is outside the scope of this comment thread, but the general idea is that you can run multiple processes per server, and each process can handle connections independently without needing to handle concurrency itself. Threading is only one way of achieving concurrency
