Just don't buy hardware that is too new. X570 platform and rx5700xt, and issues a plenty. Not to mention absolutely abysmal RGB support from hardware vendors.

If you look at "E. Access to Your Account and Content" section in the Chinese iCloud T&C [1], it seems like there is an extra clause there not present in the same section in the US T&C [2].

"...You understand and agree that Apple and GCBD will have access to all data that you store on this service, including the right to share, exchange and disclose all user data, including Content, to and between each other under applicable law."

Shouldn't this be cause for concern?

Analogizing animal behavior to human motivations feels intuitive but requires really big assumptions which scientists know they can't really defend, so they just have to avoid that topic.
My kids have had the Kindle Fire tablets for a few years. The hardware is pretty underpowered but they were super cheap. However the Amazon software on top of it is fucking TERRIBLE. To allow your kid to access a web site, you have to log into the tablet with your own PIN, twice for no reason, then wait for the horribly laggy app to load, then add the site, then go back to the kids' login.

My hopes for this Kindle reader wouldn't be high.
I think we have different definitions of trivial. Or you put a lot of trust in the average persons intelligence or more importantly laziness.
I think the point is well-made and flogging it doesn't really add much. Raptor can't change what happened, only what happens next.
Well imagine is some apex predator killed off 25% of human babies. I'm sure that humans would expend significant effort to prevent that predator from living, feeding, or reproducing across the entire planets surface.

Is it so hard to believe humpback whales are smart enough to know killer whales kill humpback babies? The humpback whales might well understand that if killer whales eat the less, they reproduce less, which will result in less humpback whales dying?

To be really clear I am not accusing you or the other accounts of being shills or bots. Statistically, you were born in China and were sent to study overseas.

The issue is that the aggregate activity of accounts like yours on overseas forums like reddit/HN is effectively a nationalistic propaganda campaign even though you probably don't realise it.

The reverse would be if thousands of random Redditors who are enraged about the HK protests showed up on your regular WeChat groups and started repeating identical pro-west propaganda talking points everywhere. Except the reverse can't happen because all the main communication mediums in China are locked out to foreigners.

That is the unfair disbalance. That is the state orchestrated influence campaign. The CCP doesn't need bots or shill armies. They have millions of nationalistic individuals overseas and use them to the same effect.
You are reading the article wrong - maybe because you are prejudiced to reading it wrong.

The article is part legend and part truth. The robots weren't anything like the robots of today. There were mostly likely simple machines shaped like a human and with some movements. The movements could be orchestrated, for example, by flowing water through a mill which moves a circular disk with knives attached to a human shaped platform.

A lot of the legends are exaggerations and narrative hyperbole which often results when information can also travel verbally. The bigger the exaggeration, the farther the information flows.
I have this phenomenon too: The macbook 2013 has a sealing rubber around the screen when you close it down to the keyboard, yet after transport, there is dust on the screen. I’ve always wondered whether something about the shape or the design sucked the dust into the screen-keyboard void when the lid is closed.
ResilioSync from multiple boxes -to-> single super-redundant DrivePool. From there, via ArqBackup -to-> Wasabi cloud.

You've misunderstood. I had cleared enough space for the update to give the go ahead. Then during the installation it ran out of space and got stuck in an infinite restart loop.

So clearly the Catalina update requires much more free space than it says it does before allowing the installation to continue. Just poor software development and lack of testing.

It's a jackass move, overall.
I seem to remember borked cifs/smb support at one point being the most painful.

Applies across a bunch of companies (I use my IBM email but I know quite a few kernel devs here who prefer to keep their open source contributions under their personal email).
I agree there are reasons to be concerned overall, but Tim Cook is very clearly stating in this interview, which happened after the nationalization, that 1) China doesn’t have access to the encryption keys themselves and 2) for much of the data (like messages) not even Apple has the keys, 3)
China is not able to access the data any more easily than any other country.

If you are targeted by the CCP, then yes, they can make a “legal” request for the data of an individual that Apple is able the decrypt (which isn’t all of it), but they aren’t able to apply mass surveillance to the iCloud data.

> “Like a whetstone hurled at eggs.”

The translation i read has this as "like a grindstone hurled against eggs", and i'd always understood that to mean a millstone, rather than a whetstone. That makes the analogy far from anti-climactic: it's a perfect illustration of a huge force meeting entirely unequal resistance.

I honestly don't think Xi cares. He is playing the long game and would rather China buy a Chinese company's product. I bet Apple is replaceable in his eyes.
Apple has said in statements to the press, as well as Tim Cook's interview with Vice, that they retain the keys and that they haven't been made available to GCBD.

>Originally, iCloud data was stored on Apple-controlled servers, with the Cupertino company holding the encryption keys. Apple announced a year ago that this would change to comply with new laws in China, and that data for Chinese iCloud accounts would be moved to a server run by Guizhou-Cloud Big Data (GCBD), a company owned by the provincial government.

>However, I have spoken to Apple today, who confirmed that it still holds the encryption keys, and states categorically that they have not been made available to either GCBD or China Telecom.

1. Choose your vertical (wisely)

2. Deep dive into at least 50-100 web sites / online presences

3. Begin to recognize patterns

At this stage you should be ready to analyze your findings. Essentially you'll discover there are key components that every player must have. And typically its around digital content curation, inbound marketing, etc.

You can strategize two ways. An indirect approach, where you begin to publish your analysis in the form of blog posts, whitepapers, etc. And let potential leads find you.

But I think I prefer the direct approach. Cloud computing / SaaS is a great example. There are myriad events right now. For example, enterprise-scale such as AWS:reinvent coming up in Dec. But also smaller ones, such as Slack's inaugural SPec conference next month. You can literally generate 100+ quality leads in hours walking the show floor. Using your research and your skills, be specific about where a company may be weak, and what value you can help them realize.

You can open a conversation with something as easily as, "Hey, I noticed you still require a call to sales to make a purchase, have you considered an online storefront, I happen to have some Stripe API integration tools I built for my own site that can help..."

Best of luck ;)
I moved to Arch Linux a few years back. So did wifey but she doesn't care about what OS she uses. We both use KDE <thingie> for a Window Manager, Libre Office and Evolution (Exchange is involved). Printing is of course CUPS, which is lovely and simply works. Lots of other things installed from the one set of repos.

KDE allows you to "lock" the desktop icons/widgets in place. That is a feature that is sorely missing from all other WMs (Mac/MS/ int al) and for me is a killer feature. Some of my end users have a habit of smearing icons (launchers) all over the place.

Desktop Linux is way better than say Desktop Windows (by OP metric). Updates take a few minutes rather than hours in some cases. Fixing things does not involve sfc /scannow but then neither does that work on any Windows box unless it has spinning rust and loses power regularly without battery backed cache.

I update my wife's laptop via SSH when she is using it and I throw a reboot job at it out of hours via cron.

My wife is happy with what she needs to get to - Facebook, email, some odd Flash games on FB and a few other things. I'm sure that Mac and Windows sysadmins can all say the same (I'm those as well.)
I'm sure someone will take up the slack.
> In any case, seeing as RMS is, to all accounts, determinedly heterosexual, I'd say that it falls neatly into the category of "sexist remarks based on gender", the sixth bullet in that second document.

Aren't sexist remarks statements like "a woman couldn't manage to do xxx as well as a man could", or "make me a sandwich"? The statement was (one might say, carefully) gender-neutral, and even if you can infer a gender it might have been referring to, what negative thing would it have been implying about said gender?

> consider that a comment like that would get anyone who made it fired from any tech company with an HR department and an employee base the size of that talk's audience

It could have, but I hope nobody would call it "sexual harrassment". "Inappropriate language at the workplace", maybe? It might not (since there's no single person it targeted, to report it to HR). It probably wouldn't cause any firing at any of the places I've worked, though. shrug

> I don't think it is unreasonable to hope for some positive impact out of all this

Let's hope so. And let's hope your comments don't end up drowning in people arguing about details, like a lot of us nerds like to do.

> there's nothing honorable or worthwhile in defending them or the people who, as in this case, persist in making them past all reasonable expectation or effort of curtailment

I hope you can see that, given the unfortunate circumstances, there really is something honorable in defending the person, at least to make sure that the accusations are valid and not overblown.

> I'd prefer it if someone like that were to understand why this is the case, and agree that it should be

BTW, you know you could email him directly, right? Before that all happened, or even now.

> he'd better learn to keep his mouth shut instead of saying things that hurt marginalized groups

Again this language of emotional escalation. It's manipulative.

Making someone uncomfortable doesn't always imply hurting them. Even if they're feeling entirely disgusted by a speech, like some of the women in the audience might have been.

You don't have to equate X with Hitler to prove to people that X is bad. X can be bad on its own rights.

There is still such a thing as disproportionate punishment.

I’m not buying that anxiety is similar to excitement. Maybe in that both can make people act brashly and make shortsighted judgements. But the effect on a person at even a hormonal level is different. I doubt excitement releases the same inflammatory response that anxiety does. Anxiety also reinforces itself while excitement progressively requires newer stimuli to produce further excitement with a decreasing effect.
The article mentions the servers run up to 100 different BPF related programs on an individual server. I get the firewall and traffic shaping stuff, but are there any unusual use-cases or hacks you could share?
Isn't the whole point of OP one giant "it works flawlessly - except for xxx" post? Except in this case, the xxx is a much more seriously negative experience compared to a couple small up-front issues with getting hardware set up the correct way.

It's pretty clear that no OS is going to be perfect; but the message I take away is that Linux is to the point where you completely have the ability to tweak and adjust your system so that it works flawlessly after some effort (as in my case, switched ~1.5 years ago. Zero problems after initial checking of driver situations). On the other hand, macOS, even from a technically savvy point of view, is unfriendly and beyond the user's power to fix.

I have to agree this was done really poorly. Another example of why randomized controlled trials aren't always what they're cracked up to be.

Not sure if a junk food diet would fly, but they could have at least given both groups a gift card and some gifts (maybe the control could have received non-food items of equal value?) and had the same phone calls, but with some "neutral" questions in the no diet change group.

There are plenty of studies that do behavioral controls. Not sure why they didn't do it in this one. Especially when there's a large literature on waitlisting effects on depression (basically people who are waitlisted as opposed to assigned to a behavioral control tend to have the worst outcomes).

I hear you about the community of Linux users.

I'd rather have 100 bugs that I could fix in principle than 1 bug that I just have to deal with because some company thinks it's a feature. And I'd rather be part of thousands of engaged tinkerer types interested in improving the support community than be part of millions that would rather convince me that their expensive hardware is proportionally better instead of actually talking about the tech.

I've been using Linux as a daily driver since high school (15 years ago). Lately though, I have noticed that we Linux types are insufferable in our own ways...
I even take issue with the premise:

“psychiatry rightly saw mental illness as rooted in biology, more specifically in the brain.”

This statement is far from the big picture, imho.

We've identified that the bulk of neurons rests below the brain, that hormones are being produced elsewhere (e.g. around the heart, or the intestine) that have a dramatic effect on conditions like depression (or lack thereof). See The Second Brain[1] by Michael D. Gershon for a primer on your intestine.

I personally think reducing mental life to the brain is just as shortsighted as reducing a computer to its CPU: sure, you can do CS with such abstractions, but not deal with real-life implementation. It's paper-theory, not applied practice. And purely abstract models have a way of not wanting to fit reality as well as we'd wish...

Ideas that we are what we eat (quite literally so), or that physical exercise helps mental strength, tend to show that even for processes seemingly 'happening' locally in the brain, the whole neural system and by extension the whole body plays a part (if only as "infrastructure", but possibly more so in an "edge / core" fashion — aren't we but a big IS after all like any living system, however esoteric to us the physical processes).

Anyway, not a neuroscientist, maybe just a cheeky dev who likes to challenge ideas, but the whole fantasized body/mind dichotomy is only furthered when we say "oh it's all physical but it's only the brain that affects mental/mind processes". You've just moved the magic black-box from "otherworldly" to "physically located in the brain" — that's better, but not quite there yet.
