The difference between eastbound and westbound speeds, and their inverse correlation, is to be expected, given that winds aloft are predominantly from the west. Just from eyeballing the speed charts, there seems to be about a 70mph difference on average, corresponding to average westerly winds of half that.

Things You Don’t Know About Stopping Down Your Lens
> A system that runs smoothly on 2006 hardware runs blazingly fast on modern hardware.

This is especially true wrt. memory use, BTW. Memory bandwidth is, as a rule of thumb, the main bottleneck affecting performance in present-day systems, so most savings in RAM use yield very real increases in performance for real-world scenarios. Also, less RAM use makes it easier to run a useful number of virtual machines or containers, even on non-high class hardware.
Remember, states (and multistates) are large collections of people. The people who are negotiating the contracts with companies are most likely several steps removed from the people who are making laws.
Isn't there some legal fiduciary duty that would prevent the executives of the company from doing this explicitly? Just because 51% of the shareholders want to lose their money doesn't mean the executives can act without regard for the 49%?
He should be judged fairly by a jury of his peers and that trial should be held in a transparent, fair and open trial for all to see.

The government won't let that happen. They'll say that, for national security reasons, the public can't be allowed to know the actual impact of the secrets he disclosed. And if we can't see the impact, it's impossible to weigh judgment.

Democracy can't work in the face of such secrecy.

Office hasn't had goofy conflicts with Windows since it switched to App-V-based installs nearly a decade ago (just after Office 2010, IIRC). (3rd Party Extensions to Office may still do dumb things, but the base Office install itself won't.)
>They facilely dismiss good critiques as “hit jobs” and level ad hominem attacks to undercut criticism. And they refuse — they will always refuse, it’s what overconfident white men do — to admit making mistakes when they’re obviously wrong. I am annoyed, like Robinson, mostly because I expected so much better from the most popular “intellectuals” of our time.

>"they will always refuse, it’s what overconfident white men do — to admit making mistakes when they’re obviously wrong."

Literally dismissing their arguments/behaviors based on the color of their skin vs the ideas they hold. Does anyone else see the doublethink here?

The GIMP image-editing application also has problems, giving permission errors when trying to access files in locations such as Desktop and Documents

I know a LOT of people who will only use Mac laptops and a ton more graphic and web designers who use Macs religiously. I have yet to find someone who uses any Mac products that run Gimp so I find this to be an interesting point.
Porsche isn’t mainstream car. It’s a toy for riches, not for salaried employees.

This is an interesting video that talks about the issues facing the German car industry with the move to EV.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcXjVxaKzv4

One of the things they talk about that I find interesting is how different EVs are from ICE cars.

I think we all assume that the companies that have gotten good at making cars, should be able to adapt to EVs, but it's a fundamentally different problem space. EVs and ICE may look alike on the outside, but are very different on the inside. I can't think of a good analogy, but if someone has one please share.
Study says: "... we modeled PCE by administering THC (2 mg per kg, subcutaneously (s.c.) once daily) to rat dams during pregnancy (from gestational day (GD) 5 until GD20). This low THC dose does not recapitulate behavioral responses in the can-nabinoid tetrad assay or elicits cannabinoid tolerance after repeated administration, hence it represents a mild insult without any substantial direct impact on maternal behavior. ... In terms of human consumption, this dose is equivalent to THC content in mild cannabis cigarettes (joints) (5%), since the average THC content in illicit cannabis preparations has significantly increased in the last two decades (from ~4% to ~12%)."

> No, it's the exact same situation. Or do you happen to know exactly how whatever hosting provider manages the server you're using?

It's not exactly the same. In the case of cloud providers, you know what you are getting into and mostly having the freedom to setup your own VPC, your VM image, your firewall, even secure boot/TPM stuff, etc.

As far as the data security goes, many Cloud vendor provide data encryption at rest with your own keys (Of course data security in transit for a VPN, that goes without saying). This is even MORE true for Corporate ITs since they own and operate their own data centers and hardwares too (even with popular trend cloud computing migration).

Just think about it, if public cloud vendors can get government contracts (DoD/CIA/NSA), then they can ensure security at a high bar. But keep in mind that security is NEVER an absolute term, so your argument to me are moot.
Out of curiosity, what are the "next generation" features of this site? It seems pretty old school to me, but maybe there's something under the hood that isn't so obvious.

Computers are meant to facilitate smooth management of data. Imagine if every last time you applied a table saw to a new piece of wood, a breaker would pop on initial contact with the piece of wood.

That's what this type of thing is devolving to. It's going to get to the point that most users are simply going to click through without thinking, and those that do pay attention are going to suffer continually.

To be quite honest, I'd pass. It'd just be easier not to keep my life on the bloody computer readily accessible all the time.
If you can't formally differentiate a computer from a sliding rule, you will have problems differentiating a quantum computer from a sensor too. That's normal.

The difference is more on the flexibility to run different programs than on them transforming encoded data. Both a sliding rule and a sensor do transform encoded data, a computer is something that can apply any mathematical transformation into the data.
Assuming your statement that you don't sell user data is correct, are you willing to state that you do not share it with other companies without money changing hands directly? That's a pretty big gap in your claims.

Was the contract against the law when the contract was signed? Others are saying the law was changed after the contract was agreed to.
CBP agents could not go to the bathroom without following a written procedure - the government's sine qua non is natural language code. As such, The Government writing a methodology for how The Government can perform a certain action is not convincing in and of itself.

More concretely, this idea of a 100 mile "exception" is utter nonsense, especially with significant population living within that area. But the Supreme Court identified with the power-desire to carry out such searches, and so performed enough logical gymnastics to create a plausible justification. And while its dubious conclusions certainly affect the practical ability of its victims to obtain straightforward justice, We The People should certainly not buy into their claims as universal when weighing whether The Government has run aground of its charter.
All Americans should be very sad that "potentially hostile government agents" is a reasonable assumption.

Pushover also handles a server, which you can make requests to, that sends push notifications to your phone. It looks like this project just scrapes JSON from a URL for changes, and notifies from that.

Pushover is push based, while this looks to be pull based.
He was not wrong. So many people define right and wrong by some system of made up rules and laws, and if someone breaks those rules or laws, even for right, people still say "they should be held accountable" as if the rule and law matter more than anything. The bad guys don't follow those rules and laws and exposing them for that, even if it violates said rules and laws, is not "wrong". It's brave and moral and right. If I was on that jury he would get a "not guilty" or jury nullification from me because despite what rules and laws he may have technically violated the system was wrong, not him. I don't care about idealistic excuses like "he should have....." because those things don't work as history proves over and over again. There are times the ends justify the means. Life is not a series of black and white rules or rule violations. The only wrong part about all of this is that they were spying on everyone to begin with, lied about it, and that nothing has been done about it since everyone was made aware. They have done a fantastic job of convincing the masses Snowden is the REAL bad guy. Shameful. If anyone insists on a trial it should be of the USG for its nefarious activities. Not the little guy for exposing them.
You're also using the best behavior of the developers who have made it through app store as evidence that the app store process is not beneficial to users. We don't really know how many bad apps and malware have been prevented by these practices, but I would bet it's a substantial amount. Just look at all the horrible crap in Google's play store.
WHY do these vehicles always have to look so freaking dorky? This is one of the things that Tesla nailed. Their vehicles are beautiful, and look like first-class products.

This, the "ID-3" looks like a prius. I'm sure it's a fine car, and I really do love EVs, but man oh man I wish the designers would take a page from Tesla's book.

edit: to be clear, my current car (that my wife and I share) is a chrysler pacifica minivan, which I believe to be one of the best cars I've ever owned. I have no problem with "dorky" vehicles, I am a dork. It's just that if you want to break out of enthusiasts buying your cars for the novelty, you have to make them appealing.
TBH I still don't see it happening or being the case atleast in the near foreseeable future...

Why you may ask..? The answer is simple cause there is always a cost.
So the question is what is easier or when can one say the cost of using a "safer" language out weighs a "less safer" one..

Cause otherwise Rust is also too damn unsafe, just move to something completely safe Idris could be a good starting point. /s

Putting the sarcasm aside. Rust is does not guarantee Memory safety, it tries to help with it. (Check Reference Cycles)
The safest feature of Rust would be it's protection against Data Races.

So at the end it's all about the trade-offs and deciding what you are willing to sacrifice and what you aren't...
Neither is the Audi, but as of yet, nobody has been able to compete with the best gas-powered cars of their respective price brackets like Tesla has. Everyone has A LOT of catch up to do if they care about getting enthusiasts to make the switch. Which...they probably couldn't give two shits about :(

I found his second book, “Lila”, to be quite enlightening. His discourse on biological, social and intellectual patterns of quality changed my worldview at the time I read the book.
OK, some observations. It looks like they used the UN official documents as a part of their corpus, so it translates regular news from Russian into English almost perfectly. I was actually stunned how good the translation was.

But once you step away from it, quality goes down. I tried translating random pieces of Russian literature and it makes obvious mistakes. It can't even manage the structure of sentences, never mind word choice.

Translations from English are also bad. For example, it translated "I never felt that the translation is off" as "I never felt that the translation is turned off".
Interesting.

I don't mind adding additional daemons to the system if it's essential. But, Tor also (as I understand it, given that this is a ways outside my core competency) adds a whole encryption and anonymization layer, which would be undesirable overhead in at least some scenarios, which is why it seems too heavy to be part of core. Maybe WebRTC isn't going to work reliably which would be very disappointing. I'd like to hear more about your experiences and could really use some help making a good decision here.

Please note that this article makes a crucial omission: this bill only applies to communication platforms
With more than 100M users in the United States.

To my knowledge, only Facebook and Facebook messenger meet that threshold (please list others for which there is data supporting that they'd also be affected). So as it is, this bill would make Facebook offer APIs to it's services, but other services with less users in the United States won't have to.

Here's the relevant section of the bill:

(7) LARGE COMMUNICATIONS PLATFORM.—The term ‘‘large communications platform’’ means a product or service provided by a communications provider that —
(A) generates income, directly or indirectly, from the collection, processing, sale, or sharing of user data; and
(B) has more than 100,000,000 monthly active users in the United States.

FWIW Cursive is also great for people who have a lot of experience with Emacs and just can't be bothered with it. Popular examples include David Nolen and Timothy Baldridge (and me), but there are plenty more too.

One representative comment that someone made to me at a conference was along the lines of "Since my boss encouraged us to move to Emacs, I've never spent so long fiddling with and arguing about my editor config. After a while most of us moved to Cursive and all that just went away".

I think Emacs is generally easier to get along with these days, but it'll never be as easy to use as a "normal" app where things just work out of the box. Some people like that, and others don't, but it's not as simple as a division between newbies and experienced users. They're roughly equivalent in power these days, some things Emacs does better and others Cursive does better - fortunately there's plenty of room for both, even in a userbase as small as Clojure's.

Does this qualify as 'computational photography'? My interpretation of that term is that it is more about using non-standard optics processed with a computer, than it is about applying deep learning and other AI based techniques which seems to be what this is. Otherwise, this looks cool ;) I am glad to see AI image processing becoming more accessible.
Why “Referer”?
The author touched on the value of the original author, and this is something missing from the RiiR projects I've encountered. An open source project is more than just code. It's the community: the original authors and maintainers and their years of experience in that problem space. If you don't have a plan to move the community over to Rust (and the RiiR projects I've seen did not) you're (A) duplicating effort, (B) ignoring the value of engineering experience, and (C) making a major decision for an open source project (rewriting it) without collaboration with the current maintainers. (C) is anti-collaborative, and an extreme measure that should only happen in extreme circumstances (not "just because it might be better").

At my employer, the number one reason (I'm aware of) to open source our internal software is to solicit collaboration from other companies. Take away collaboration, and it's going to be a harder sell to open source anything.
