My tips are as follows:

1. Don't bother memorizing "count" stuff, like "how many subnets can you have in a VPC by default" or whatevever. Any of these resource limit type things are subject to change, and they mostly try to keep the test questions to things that stay fairly consistent (I've been told this by somebody who works at Amazon and contributes to the certification process, and who wrote a popular certification study guide for this test).

2. Focus on the "core" services: VPC, EC2, S3, RDS, Route53, etc. At least for the Associate level test, I wouldn't expect to get many (if any) questions on AWS Batch or Sagemaker, or Rekognition, etc. Especially something like Sagemaker which has it's own "specialty" certification.

3. Expect lots of networking questions. Know subnets, security groups, subnet ACL's, etc. really well.

4. Know RDS really well.

5. Know auto-scaling groups, and load balancers pretty well.

Actually, if you know anything about AWS at all, and then study the hell out of everything about RDS, auto-scaling groups, the various load balancers, the networking stuff, and S3 (storage classes in particular), then you will probably be good to pass the certification.
Elon has a charitable foundation. This donation could have come from those funds. I'm assuming those funds would not be considered part of this wealth in regards to his cash-poor status.

I mean the idea of the weight limit is that at some weight the drone just does not pose as much of a public safety issue. I don't wee why the regulators should change the weight limit unless there's evidence that 249g is still too much of a risk.
Incentivizing companies to hit a weight limit is a good thing. If the drone is the size of a songbird and the loudness of a bumblebee, I'm not sure I care if they're unregulated.
The FAA is free to change the rules based on what happens in the real world, if the FAA is doing their job well they will have considered the implications of someone creating something just on the other side of the limit as is common with regulations like that. If the limit is set correctly, there will be a margin of safety between where the limit is and the point where risks being mitigated matter.

So no, I don't think DJI are being "bad guys" by kissing up to the limit because the rules were made by people who do think things through very thoroughly.
> And Unix has had ptrace(2) for a very long time too

A flaw in the Linux implementation, though, prevents one to run ptrace on a process that is using ptrace itself.

As more programs use ptrace, this flaw is becoming quite annoying.
The Apple’s H1 chip allows you to play audio with minimal delay. Using the pressure sensor on the case, you can easily control music and calls, as well as switch from Active Noise Cancellation to Transparency mode or vice versa. The Announce Messages with Siri feature allows you to listen to text messages through AirPods. And thanks to the Audio Sharing function, you can listen to music, podcasts and any other audio together with the other through two pairs of AirPods. Play, watch movies and listen to songs together.
>Trying to evade arrest and capture is extremely dangerous and if police were to say "well he ran I guess we'll just let him go" crime would skyrocket because thieves would know all you have to do is run and you're home free.

Talk about minimal returns. There are 1000 other factors (in police, laws, and culture) to fix before crime skyrockets from not "catching with excessive force random guys who did minor/no offenses and tried to run away". Starting from social support for poorer districts and a legal/prison system that doesn't encourage recidivism...

While we're at it, in no civilized western or eastern country is "getting out of your car when stopped by a traffic cop" something that's met with a shooting...

It's like the police force is not professional over there, but just a joke with a gun, and on the first adverse situation (which could be as "adverse" as merely meeting a black guy) they get their guns out rather than doing any critical assessment, handling of the situation, etc. Sorry, un untrained thug can do the same exact thing. There should be higher standards from police officers...
According to Glynne Shotwell, ticket costs would be less than the price of a first-class ticket on an airliner. Being able to do 12 trans-pacific flights a day rather than 2 makes a big difference for cost reduction.
I expect this kind of sunshade is inevitable now and that pressure is mounting to build it, and it is extremely fortunate that a capability has developed to build it very affordably (for a global project) and rapidly (at a push - 1 year!). Its likely just a matter of years or decades before warming events and modelling generate enough rational alarm to empower a global body to take control of global and continental solar insolation levels.
Many thousands of individual sunshades can tilt using low power gyros, even in hourly timeframes to alter exactly when and where shading is applied to Earths regions and live weather systems, and also use a long term light-sail effect to keep themselves appropriately positioned while floating through the orbit-ally unstable Lagrange region.

Unfortunately even recognition of a capability to build such a thing will certainly reduce pressure to rapidly de-carbonize, even the acidification of the oceans is hailed as solvable now by putting vast but affordable quantities of mined olivine them.

Human depredation, mis-consumption and mis-appreciation of natural systems (as well as each other) remain gravely destructive and tragic modern persuasions until the narrative is healed.
All those other social networks fill other niches than facebook. You can't fully replace facebook with twitter or youtube, because they are intended for different use cases.

> Everyone is so tired of being lied to by authority figures.

I see very little sign of this. On the contrary, basically anywhere I look I see nothing but rabid enthusiasm for the latest Russia boogeyman story, and utter disdain for any idea that things may not be quite as we're told by the government and media.

I suspect the only reason there happens to be any interest in this story is that it involves children. Considering how relatively carefree the public seems to be on this story, when usually any story involving children and sex results in widespread hysteria and disgust, I think whoever is behind the memory holing of this story is probably feeling pretty comfortable with their ability to control people's perception of reality.
They are a thing. This company is doing it with trucks: https://www.starsky.io/
The sad thing is that this is only an issue now, when the product is unexpectedly killing people in the short term. It's clear that killing people in the long term is part of their business model.

For example:

They created flavors clearly designed for non-smokers

They took major investment funds from big tobacco

The had to be forced to restrict certain marketing policies even though it was clear that vaping had become epidemic in high schools.

They pursue the same kinds of hyper aggressive promotion overseas the cigarette companies do, continuing with practices that are now prevented in the US

They happily ignore the evidence that many people in this new generation of addicts switch in-part or in-whole to cigarettes.

So why didn't Epstein arrange so any attempt on his life would result on all the dirt on people being sent out?

Why didn't Epstein tell the prosecution "Holy fuck, people are trying to kill me, I want a protection and a deal and I will tell on everyone" after the first attempt?

If you need to either own or rent 12 shares of a tech company so you have somewhere to sleep, and if the value of each tech company stock rises and falls roughly in line with that of other tech companies in the region, then the comparison is fair.

It isn't about limiting yourself solely to the utility value, but about the difficulty in separating the utility from the investment.

You can sell your shares for market value at any time, and use the proceeds for whatever you want.

If you sell your only home, you usually then need to spend money on replacing it, whether in the form of rent, mortgage, or using the proceeds to buy outright.
I am sorry. They definitely should not be doing this to somebody in their 70s. It is truly appalling!

> but that some paramedic or bystander took a picture of Epstein's body as it was wheeled out and posted it on 4chan. And how it was an egregious violation of HIPPA and FDNY should look into investigating that

Apropos of all the other things going on in this case - which lets be honest, were getting plenty of news play - why is this article odd?

Because, as a paramedic - fuck whomever did that. I don't care who it is, that is one of the most unprofessional and unethical things we can do. I teach new EMTs and paramedics and we talk about the huge amount of trust and access into the most intimate, worst moments of people's lives, and that's because we have built up this culture of being able to be entrusted to do this.

Whether you're giving care to someone bitten by a canine unit after they were found in the woods after an alleged rape, or to a drunk driver who t-boned your ambulance when you had a patient inside, and so on and so forth, if you can't disconnect your personal passion or despising of someone from your ability to provide medical care, you need to not be in this profession. And furthermore, if you see it not just as an opportunity to be unprofessional but to make a buck / publicity out of an abuse of trust, then even more, get out.

All firefighters and paramedics are certainly not perfect, but there is also a huge stock in trying to maintain the reputation we have - it's what allows people to tell me what drugs they've taken, etc., or whether there's a chance of pregnancy, when otherwise they might not.
I pay close attention to the "nutters" and "conspiracy theorists". A great way to hide something big in plain sight is to let someone that is unstable see 1/8th of your secret. They will conflate other things into it and sound totally loony, thus invalidating any discussion about your evil plans by anyone, as they will be associated with the unstable person.

I am not going to name names, as that would be inappropriate, but there are some popular public figures that make video and news streams, that have sounded totally loony for decades and yet, turned out to be mostly right or in some cases, spot on. They just conveyed the message poorly.

I'm arguing that the idea of matchmaking according to assessed skill level is inherently flawed, and smurfing is a natural workaround to this self-inflicted problem.
That's a clever way to inject your agenda, but I'm not having it. The immediate problem is ecological collapse, the proposed solution is a Sun-shade, and you're basically shouting that "we'll do nothing until we get to the bottom of the failures of Capitalism!"

There are a lot of times where Python is an inappropriate language choice. Anytime you have concurrency for instance. Definitely any time you need to distribute an application directly to an end user.

Beyond times when Python is clearly wrong, there are other issues, mainly around tooling and documentation. Languages have come a long way in the past 20 years.
We're 100 years away from that, at least at human-scale.
You're acting like Epstein was just another prisoner.

People who know a thing or two about the justice system will explain to you how differently high profile prisoners like Epstein are treated.

I assume the "spirit" of the law is safety. If the FAA has determined that 250g is where the risk of a person, or plane, or something else being hit by a drone is diminished so as to not require the same regulations as drones over that weight, I'd say that keeping drones under that weight limit to avoid those regulations (and their associated safety issues) is well within the "spirit" of the law.
There's definitely a middle distance where biking is the easiest way to get around. Particularly in Brooklyn, if you're traveling perpendicular to the direction of Manhattan you're almost certainly not served by transit anyway.
You seem to have no clue how these things work.

First of all, he was in fact there for the autopsy. The fact that he did not perform it is irrelevant although it doesn't matter whether he was there or not. The entire point of an autopsy is to create a record of evidence that can be examined at a later time.

Coroner's reports are made available to those who need them. This will include photographs of the procedure as well as written (and sometimes recorded, either voice or video) documentation of the findings. Sometimes these findings are incorrect and only noticed in later reexamination.

This happens fairly regularly and it's not uncommon for a ruling on cause of death to be changed at a later time as new evidence is presented.

Seriously, your stupid question is like asking why we care that the homicide detective wrote down what someone else saw. I mean he wasn't there either but I don't see you questioning basic police procedure and evidence collection.
The main advantage of an electric bike is less about distance and more about terrain. The distance is nice too, but while electric assist it might have some impact on how long a trip you're willing to make, it'll have a huge impact on your willingness to take trips through hilly areas. This can open up whole new parts of the city for accessing casually by bike.

> I am a strong proponent of [..] making healthcare participation an option.

You'll be happy to know then that a key provision of Obamacare was gutted, and there is now no fee/tax/penalty for not being insured.

https://www.healthcare.gov/fees/fee-for-not-being-covered/

Dont take this post as an approval of the change - I think it will end up making healthcare more expensive for everyone, as now there is less incentive for healthy people to carry insurance. Not carrying insurance in the US is extremely risky in my opinion, but most healthy young adults don't end up needing much medical care, and a few hundred dollars a month is not a trivial expense. Certainly when I was younger not carrying health insurance for a period of time was the difference in making rent or not.
According to Wikipedia, that was done without a referendum:

> Public perception of the dissolution has not changed much, with a December 2017 poll showing that just 42% of Czechs and 40% of Slovaks agree with what happened (compared to 36% and 37% in 1992, respectively). According to Czech political analyst Lubomir Kopeček, many Czechs and Slovaks view the breakup process unfavourably because they had no say in the matter. Most people would have rather had a referendum decide.
> If he had dirt on people would he not arrange so it would be sent out in case of his death?

Considering the circumstances, if you received information from Epstein, what would you do with it? Even if you were brave enough to risk your life in the service of justice, what authority would you even send it to?
That 36,000 number isn't really the entire story. The majority of those are suicides. In the year that this incident took place (2015) there were 9,616 murders with a firearm of some kind. Source:

> At any time, the police could have simply broken it off and tracked him down later.

You'll let a criminal go free because he forced a high-speed chase, and took shots at an officer with a handgun? Take a guess what the local criminals will do if that hits the news.

That's WHY criminals enter high speed chases: because they know that officers sometimes let them go at that point. You have to continue pursuit if the criminal escalates, or else the other criminals will change their strategy.

> As usual with Sabine, this article blatantly misrepresents how science is done and how actual scientists think

No offence but she is a trained physicist so she too is an 'actual scientist' by the very definition of the term. And she's completely right about the neglect of economic reasoning. The arguments against blowing 40 billion bucks on an accelerator that will likely not surface anything new is valid. Physicists gotta accept that opportunity costs are real.

And the 'canary in the coalmine' point in particular in regards to pharmaceuticals is valid too. The research costs for very specialised, small scale drugs has exploded by a magnitude or two depending on who you ask. Other fields are starting to suffer as well.

I would go even further than she does and say it's an almost universal condition of modern research. We see diminishing returns everywhere, and if this is not stopped and we don't manage to drastically increase the efficacy of scientific research we'll effectively flatline at some point.

Almost any material hard metrics you look at like life expectancy, economic growth or whatever you could consider a sign of technological advancement, even tens of billions in investment seem to produce only marginal improvements. We are not living in the golden age of science.

I'd argue that the mythology surrounding Thermopylae is the result of the mythology surrounding Sparta, rather than the other way around. Objectively, Thermopylae was an abject defeat (even by Herodotus's account) that didn't do anything to save Greece from Persia conquering basically everything. The only reason it's more than a historical footnote is because of the Spartan legend.
