It claims to ban your Google account on all or part of the service, where that service is presumably YouTube.

I would consider that wording a step away from destroying other Google properties to protect the YouTube bathwater. But I doubt that is the only condition, or that the legaleze completely matches their actual policy as implemented.

You’re right, I think this is the first time I’ve heard someone mention this. I was actually quite surprised when SwiftUI came out because in Cocoa/Cocoa Touch there is a clear set of things you “can” do and everything else would just break and the new declarative language allows (and even encourages) very strange combinations. I haven’t used it a whole lot, but it seems like they’ve done a pretty good job making it mostly work.

Xifrem – Client-Side Encrypted Chat with Asymmetric Encryption
Hello Everyone,
This is Chris, co-founder of Xifrem Chat ( https://xifrem.com )

Xifrem is an encrypted chat application with both symmetric and asymmetric encryption "completely client-side".

This means that the text is encrypted in your browser through a password or a public-key before being sent to the recipient and only the recipient can decrypt it, this will eliminate several attacks such as Man-in-the-middle attack.

This project, we believe, is a big step in the world of secure communications, as it will relinquish and expose concepts such as End-to-end encryption and make it void.

Our goal since we started this project is anonymity, therefore we don't even collect info considered by usual websites normal to collect, as we stated in our privacy statement:

* We don’t collect any of your personal info, including your IP address.
* We don't use any third-party service to collect any information about you.
* We don’t sell your personal info to advertisers or other third parties.

I hope this gives an idea of what Xifrem is. I’m here to answer any/all questions about Xifrem.
Please don’t come to Austin.
I'm not sure I completely grasped the air-traffic control example you mentioned, but I think you're on the same track, yep. Low-latency, localized computation within a well-connected physical area.

To try to make it more concrete, here's a scenario:

Imagine that smartphones are able to opt-in to become part of an edge cluster which communicates over some kind of local network fabric (be that wi-fi / 5G / similar).

Now imagine that you have 2,000+ fans at a sporting event or live performance, all with their phones and many taking live recordings.

Shifting high-fidelity video/audio data from that many devices at an event back to the cloud in realtime might not be particularly feasible and/or useful for various network contention, bandwidth, and latency reasons (both client and server-side).

But if those devices were already running a containerized application to perform -- say, 3D image stitching[0], for example -- you could collect, compute and redistribute results via the cluster in near-real-time, potentially providing some pretty immersive audience experiences (3D highlights and replays and all kinds of interesting augmented reality interpolation of audience & performers).

It'd also raise questions around who owns/authorizes the on-device computation, who has permission and copyright over the data captured, and various other issues.

All very hypothetical ideas, but technically feasible. Predicting fast food order demand is much more practical challenge to begin with, no doubt :)

Thanks for the link. Some relevant quotes:

> This means you heat the drug up to 130 degrees celsius for 15 minutes [130°C=266°F]

That's more temperature than the 80°C in the GP comment. It's common that drugs decompose with temperature.

[SGF = simulated gastric fluid, 37°C=98°F, I'd like to see the pH, let's assume 2 or something]

The concentration of Sodium Nitrite is weird because it is like x500 bigger than the maximal allowed level in drinking water, and it is also like a hundred times the concentration you'd get from sausages.

You left out d) how long will it last?

Fusion reactions produce lots of neutrons, and neutrons weaken metal, in many cases within a few hours.

It may be that a "successful" fusion reactor is still a failure because it can run for only a few hours, days, or weeks before it has to be scrapped and completely rebuilt.
This commenter has it right; YT can't possibly be a money-maker: https://twitter.com/AlalmeCreative/status/119360740533606809...

Think about it. You can't even consider being a large video host without massive amounts of spare disk space, and you probably can't make enough on ads to pay just for bandwidth!

I bet that this is why the new terms of service clarify that YT is an offering of Google, and not of some wholly-owned subsidiary. Google's search ads make so much money that you can buy as many computers as you like in pursuit of ads, and then if you happen to use those computers for storing cat videos, well, that's just good use of idle disks!
I don't compare with (our stories of) the past, I compare with the faint inkling I have of what ought to be, the injustice and squandered potential I see right now. Furthermore there is the road we're on and the cliff it ends at: the concentration of wealth doesn't let up, the ability to think and even feel seems to drastically decline before our eyes, the research for control and destruction of humans goes on, and all of that can come home to roost in a very short amount of time. I think it's a bit like sitting on the Titanic and saying "the nice meal and the music we enjoy now is so much better than when we stood at the harbour in pouring rain, before we boarded this ship".

edit: Heh, I guess some people thing pretending that isn't so will get them a seat at the table. There won't even be a table.

> The frightening coincidence of the modern population explosion with the discovery of technical devices that, through automation, will make large sections of the population 'superfluous' even in terms of labor, and that, through nuclear energy, make it possible to deal with this twofold threat by the use of instruments beside which Hitler's gassing installations look like an evil child's fumbling toys, should be enough to make us tremble.

> Now the police dreams that one look at the gigantic map on the office wall should suffice at any given moment to establish who is related to whom and in what degree of intimacy; and, theoretically, this dream is not unrealizable although its technical execution is bound to be somewhat difficult.

> If machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed. Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution.

>Even if global warning has a death toll of 10% of the world population I don't consider that a real problem.

Absolutely incredible. Are you picturing your friends and family in this hypothetical 10% death toll? Or the social conditions that would result in this number (comparable to Germany in WW2)?

What is so horrifying to you about stopping global warming, that literally decimating the world's population is the less bad option?

The main benefit is that it makes Steam not depend anymore on the installed packages of the host Linux distribution.

Part of this is that Steam can still use 32-bit libraries even when the host Linux distribution has fully moved to 64-bit.

See recent discussion at https://ubuntu.com/blog/statement-on-32-bit-i386-packages-fo...

While you would have expected from Valve to use an existing container platform, they went ahead and used directly the security features of the Linux kernel in Steam.

I had a pretty severe fall while snowboarding the past season. I caught my heel side edge on a jump and landed on my head. I tried to sleep it off.

I still sometimes get flashbacks and I’m not sure I will be returning to the sport.

This sounds ideal for a SaaS. Why is each practice messing around with an IT dept and SQL and DR when it could be hosted and managed at low cost for all them at once?
As far as classes go, if I’m interviewing someone fresh out of college (or current students looking for internships), it does make a difference what classes they took. That’s somewhat specific to what I do professionally though.

Pretty much anything I’d hire them for would involve some degree of systems programming and/or graphics. So, having one or more OS classes and/or graphics classes are significant. Of course if they are knowledgeable about those things by learning on their own, that’s great too, but that’s even less common.

Once someone’s no longer fresh out of college, education specifics become a lot less important, and the focus shifts to their career history. But for people without a prior history, there’s little else to go on. For example, if a particular internship or junior position involves graphics, it’ll make a big difference if the interviewee has some sort of introductory foundation of knowledge and won’t be starting from scratch. That could be a critical difference between two otherwise equal candidates.

TL;DR if you are a student with an interest in any interest in a specialty that you might want to pursue professionally, and there’s a course dedicated to that specialty, by all means take that course. Whether it’s graphics, or AI, or operating systems, or whatever. It could definitely help you get that first job or internship in that field. It sounds painfully obvious, but it must not be based on my personal experiences.

"Random drug testing" often tends to be less than random. I know people who have worked in drug tested industries and they'd always get a heads up or be able to skip out of testing when they needed to.

Use of amphetamines on the job is incredibly common, even in professional white collar industries. When there's work to get done, it gets done. Everyone knows it goes on, and you'd rather have speedy workers than workers falling asleep at the wheel. Obviously the actual solution is that you employ enough workers and ensure that they get adequate sleep. Using drugs for work is a fast and easy pathway towards addiction.
Clear writing is indeed difficult, as far as my field (Business/Data Analyst). More difficult is to express oneself clearly under a lot of pressure.

I grew up in a rural PNW town where hatred of Californians was a way of life. I ultimately ended up in California for the start of my career which gave me the kind of upward mobility I’d never have had an opportunity to achieve.

Call it survivorship bias or whatever you want but without a stint in California I would have likely never known it was possible to get a job other than working at the lumber mill or driving a log truck.

I’ve since left the Bay Area due to rising costs and landed in a Boise-like city. Costs in Redwood City at the time I left we’re $1-1.3MM for a starter three bed, two bath home at 2k sq ft.

My home was purchased brand new, 25% larger than the Bay Area starters, 40% cheaper, on the best street in the best neighborhood. Why would I not live here?

Quality of life is through the roof, commutes are 10-15 mins at most and everyone is happy and eager to chat about the fun things they do outdoors.

It’s obvious why non-natives want to live here. What’s infuriating is to see how much the town has grown in great ways that are completely ignore by locals.

Yes, rent and housing costs are way up. But so is infrastructure, tourism, amenities, etc but it’s easier to flip off the dude in CA plates instead(which happened to me shortly after moving here)
Why can't it be both? To me, the impression the show gave was that he probably did it, but that the police also faked evidence to increase the odds of a guilty verdict.

The problem with File::create is that it must interoperate with the existing OSes. And it turns out, File::create can fail for many many reasons. Your file can be on disk, it can be remotely accessible on the network, it can be virtual, etc... And the OS can return just about any error. Linux lists the errors returned on each operation, but they're really just advisory and not exhaustive.

So for io::Error, we're basically constrained by what the OS provides. Not much Rust can do about it, I'm afraid.
When it takes 30 minutes to load your mod pack and even with a RAM disk and a healthy number of fast cores on a dedicated server you're still dipping below 20 fps on some occasions, it's time for a leaner edition than java.

The cause for the dysfunction in California politics is highly debatable. Is it just too liberal? Or is it too conservative? Has it been coopted by corporate interests, landowners and landlords? Or is it too sympathetic to the homeless?

The list of purported reasons could and does go on and on, and everyone on each portion of the political spectrum has their own take on it.

Where on the political spectrum these California expats fall and what (if anything) they think makes Californian politics dysfunctional is anyone's guess, but it's unlikely that they'll deliberately want to recreate any kind of dysfunction. If anything, they'll want to fix what what was broken about the way their state went about things.

I disagree.

We are moving into a world where people have more freedom and liberty. Sometimes we take a (big) step backwards, but the trend is towards more.

These new freedoms and liberties are created by technology, increased wealth distribution (globally), and changing social norms towards individual rights and equality.

I can, for example, participate in international engineering efforts from any one of a billion places with steady internet that will allow me to stay. I can eat a greater variety of foods than my grandparents enjoyed. I can do research and study about my own medical alignments and make better informed decisions about my healthcare than every before. I have the option to marry anyone that agrees to it, regardless of race or gender. I can practice the religion of my choosing openly.

I understand that there is a lot of pain and a large risk of group think associated with our global information system. I have the individual freedom to choose which information sources I tune into, and I have never had a greater variety than today.

It is not about making the browser act like a book. It is about using HTML (a document markup language) and CSS (styling independent of semantics) to write paged media.

Who suggested that rights were a priori truths? I certainly didn't. Who suggested that rights aren't a human creation? I certainly didn't.

I wouldn't put rights - those things based on reasoning and experience, much like the rest of the vast body of law - into a category with gods, reincarnation, gender pronouns and mythology, but that's just me.

Only the pilot and copilot had ejection seats, the rest of the crew couldn't also have ejection seats (I'm not sure if it was specifically weight, volume, or orientation/configuration that was the limiting factor. I think maybe a combination of all three.) STS-1 through STS-4 (all using Columbia) only had a pilot and copilot, no other crew. For STS-5 and STS-9 when there was more crew, they flew with the ejection seats disabled. After STS-9 the seats were removed.

I don't have a source saying it specifically, but I think they weren't keen on operating a shuttle where two of seven crew could survive but the other five had no chance. It must have also saved weight and space too.
737-900er, the longest-range 737NG only has 3000 nautical miles of range, which is just enough for TATL flights. The 757-200's slightly longer range opens up many additional city pairs without having to upgauge to a 767.

The 737-900ER doesn't have the range of the 757 but it will use less fuel on the routes both can do.

However, the XLR seats about 70 fewer passengers than the 757, so the 757 will probably still live on for a little while longer.

For airlines that already have 757s, maybe. The XLR and 757-200 both offer nearly identical seating (with the nod going to the XLR in one class config) and range. The 757-300 can seat about 40 more in one class config, but you take a pretty hefty range penalty. Ultimately the XLR is pretty much the direct replacement for the 757.

The XLR (and 900ER and MAX) also have one big advantage that no revamp of the 757 will offer: commonality. You can share flight and cabin crew between the 318/319/320/321 (CEO and NEO) and between the 600/700/800/900/900ER (NG) and 7/8/9/10 (MAX).

The Airbus lineup (320/330) is further compelling because going between the narrow and widebody product requires relatively little training.

If Boeing hadn't killed the 757, and then immediately start sucking, there might've been a refresh to a 757 MAX-like aircraft that sat 225-290, had a 4500nmi range and was efficient. But, you know, we got the real timeline instead.

Boeing killed the 757 because nobody bought it. Same with the 767. In fact the only reason the 767 line is still open is because the USAF bought the KC-46. Meanwhile 757 operators like Iceland Air were moving away from the 757 to the MAX. The 757 was a great plane, but it was the wrong product at the wrong time.

Personally I think the 737 ought to die. I don't like it as a passenger, and I can't imagine it being fun in the legendarily noisy and cramped cockpit on a long haul flight.
