That's not true.
the Consitution makes a distinction between 'person' and 'citizen', but is painfully ambiguous about 'People'. In context, 'people' most likely means 'citizens'.
Even if you mean 'persons', not 'people', it's still largely ambiguous.

https://www.senate.gov/civics/constitution_item/constitution...

'People' have rights:

> the right of the people peaceably to assemble

> the right of the people to keep and bear Arms,

> the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects

> other [right]s retained by the people.

> [powers] are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

'People' usually means 'voters':

> chosen every second Year by the People of the several States

> The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, elected by the people thereof,

> the people fill the vacancies by election as the legislature may direct.

Government is made of 'citizens':

> No Person shall be a Representative who shall not have ... been seven Years a Citizen of the United States,

[etc for Senator, President]

and 'citizens' are covered by Federal Judiciary in interstate cases and interstate rights:

> judicial Power shall extend to all Cases ... between Citizens and ...

> The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States.

Amendment XIV (1868) clarifies the difference between a 'person' and 'citizen', to some [insufficient] extent.

> All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

and makes the most interesting statement about the rights of a 'person'

> nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

The reality is that the Constituation does not explain what are the rights of non-citizen persons, wihile at the same time repeatedly stating that not all persons are citizens.

You can split hairs on the wording, and many judges have, but the truth is that the authors just didn't write carefully about visitors and non-citizen immigrants, since international travel was very difficult in the 18th and 19th Centuries so not a big deal (except for slavery, which was a whole different mess).
I’d be interested to hear from someone who knows more than me about the general trend of car manufactors running factories in high wage first world countries. Are the transport costs so high that it makes sense to manufactor where the demand is? Or does it have to do with the time to transport? Some political reason? Why are cars made near demand while almost all other products are made far away?
I trust the Reds. Although, as someone else just said, it's an anecdote, not real data like the Backblaze report.

I started my NAS in 2012 with two 2 TB Red drives. Later I added two 6 TB Red drives. Some time, around 2016 I think, one of the 2 TB Reds failed and I replaced it with another 6 TB. Then the other 2 TB Red failed, like a year later and I put in another 6 TB so they all matched. I did not get replacements even though one failed during its warranty period (I am pretty sure the 2 TB Reds still had a 5-yr warranty at that time), because I wanted to replace it with a 6 TB anyway.

Currently all four 6 TB drives are still running, plus a couple of 4 TB Toshibas I grabbed at some point.

So, I don't think that drive failure after 4 or 5 years is so bad. I got my money's worth anyway, and that's why a NAS has redundant drives.

"It sounds like this recent ruling may have rendered that page out of date."

Not exactly. Here, the only change is related to digital devices being searched. Everything else that happens at the border regarding searches is unchanged. So the limitation of the 4th amendment is still largely unaltered. But the protections have now been extended to digital devices only at border searches.

The article doesn't go into it (maybe the actual USSC does?) but I assume the logic here is that the reasoning behind the 4th amendment border search exception in the first place is to monitor what's coming across the border in terms of physical contraband (drugs, guns, animals, foods, etc.). There aren't really any concerns with digital devices. They are legal and anything done with them that might be illegal isn't related to the device crossing the border. And much of what can be done with them can also be done with any cheap device purchased in the states or using a cloud service (in the modern era). So randomly searching the devices doesn't really do much of anything related to border protection.
How to Read More Books in a Distracted World
Prioritizing new content is going to exacerbate a lot of already existing problems with the WWW. I won't echo the already good list of reasons why old content is relevant. But I will point out it will usher in a new era of re-showing you old content that has been repurposed "as new" via minor edits. And it's going to also help convince a growing audience of web surfers that only the latest/greatest is worth knowing about. That in turn puts additional pressure on content producers to obsess endlessly over SEO tricks and gimmicks. In sum, this worsens the user's experience by prioritizing things that benefit Google. And this, of course, should be no surprise to anybody who has watched Google's business decisions over the past 4 or 5 years.

I'd be curious to hear what information you derived from my answer; you might be surprised how wrong it is.

The main thing going on is that we've learned—the hard way—over the years to keep the moderation channel out-of-band where possible. To do otherwise has a crossing-the-streams effect that blows up into a off-topic and low-quality discussion. Since we're trying to value quality over quantity in all things, we try to avoid that. It doesn't follow that we feel unbothered by money laundering, criminals, or thugs.

There are plenty of people who don't find the onion, at all. It's not a justification for blacklisting them as fake news.
Yeah, too bad the border control agents basically do what they want and this case means nothing.

They'll do the same thing, and someone will say "But what about Alasaad v. McAleenan?" and in the small windowless holding room the agent will say "What about it? You want to leave, unlock your phone."
> Gas pumps stop working too when utility power is out.

And gas pumps can be powered by diesel generators. Especially because they happen to be built on top of giant-tanks of diesel.

I mean, the Tesla Supercharger at Nuburgring was a diesel generator for this very reason. Diesel (and gasoline) takes up very little space or weight, while giving a significant amount of energy storage. So its ideal for storage, transport, and distribution.

One thing I've noticed myself doing is that when I (increasingly rarely) stumble across a good, high-useful-information density website on anything I have even a passing interest in (typically either some sort of obscure fora, or a personal blog/website), I carefully bookmark and tag it on the spot, because I'll never be able to find it again otherwise.
It's bad because it doesn't work. Your hypothetical is just that, hypothetical. Doesn't work in practice. Also, violated due process.

I'll (possibly inaccurately) assume this is in good faith. The most obvious reason that profiling is bad, even in your inaccurate and simplistic hypothetical scenario, is that just because all airplane terrorist attacks came from people of X country, does not imply that everyone from X country commits terrorist airplane attacks. Therefore you are unfairly and immorally forcing invasive searches on many innocent people of X country. If you have any empathy for the innocent people of X country, you will realize how horrible this is.
I thought it was worth noting, as I follow the CNCF and their numerous projects, but I hadn't made the connection myself.

Not to take anything away from the accomplishments of the Quay team or their contribution, there is definitely value in having more than one kid on the block when it comes to open-source solutions for problems like this. I think the tendency is to push for "one solution to rule them all" and that kind of approach can stifle innovation pretty hard.

I'm not sure there's any relevance between this announcement and that one, as Harbor has been in the incubator since about 12 months ago from what I can tell, and was sandbox before that. But it appears to be another mature solution in the same space with many of the same features, if that isn't something worth noting I can't understand why not!

To your point, it would be great if the comment was a bit more substantive.
I'm not sure this is always bad, as long is it's obvious it's not serious or for the purpose of fraud, or if the individual cited actually contributed in some way. Here's a researcher's dog, whose name was Galadriel Mirkwood, cited as a co-author:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polly_Matzinger#Dog_co-author_...

Who is to say the dog did not contribute to the author's paper and research in some way she found significant? Likewise with the children. There's tons of papers where people are cited for making the most minor contribution, like just suggesting something that reminded the researcher of something else and that's considered a legitimate practice to acknowledge their inspirational or otherwise supportive input. And yeah kids can make useful suggestions into their parents research and should be allowed to be acknowledged when that is the case.

The dog lady was banned from publication until the angry editor died! Overkill IMO as I see no fraud there. Fortunately when she was up for tenure she got it, with the tenure committee finding regarding the dog issue that the coauthorship was legitimate because "It was a real dog [a frequent lab visitor] and they said it had done no less research than some other coauthors had."

In the Korean case the article notes that after an 2018 audit of 82 papers with child coauthors they were able to determine that about half the children named had participated in the research. So at least that half were legitimately credited. The article then notes that currently 549 papers with child authorship have been reviewed, and only 24 were found to have unjustified authorship. Only 24 of 549 papers with child authors! That's only 4% of papers with child authors being unjustified. What percentage of papers without child authors give unjustified credit? Is it more than 4%? Perhaps! And certainly so for the field of ghostcredited pharmaceutical papers, a known huge problem. It's possible that papers with child authors are even less likely to have unjustified authorship than papers in general.
I think the first step is having CI but not reacting to it. For a while I shared your view, but after just "enabling it in the background" nowadays it's really useful. Even if it's just an "it compiles" check.

I remember this from 19th century novel "The Captain's Daughter" by Alexander Pushkin[0]. While the book is fiction, the practice isn't presented as something extraordinary for the mid-18th century and may very well be true. I haven't looked for non-fictional sources.

The second paragraph of the novel reads as follows:

Матушка была еще мною брюхата, как уже я был записан в Семеновский полк сержантом, по милости майора гвардии князя Б., близкого нашего родственника. Если бы паче всякого чаяния матушка родила дочь, то батюшка объявил бы куда следовало о смерти неявившегося сержанта, и дело тем бы и кончилось.

Oddly, in both English translations linked to by the Wikipedia article the mention of pregnancy and handling of the girl situation is just dropped.

In my very imperfect translation:

"My mother was only pregnant with me when through the help of a near relative of ours, Prince B., himself a Major of the Guards, I was already enlisted in Semyonovsky regiment as a Sergeant of the Guards. Were my mother, contrary to the wishes, to give birth to a girl, my father would've notified the regiment of the death of an absent sergeant and that would've been it."

Ask HN: How did you resolve intense disagreements with your cofounder?
I've worked in both the public and private sector, albeit not in the USA.

The simplest and biggest difference between public and private sector organisations is their motive: Private sector makes money. Public sector avoids being front page of the news. The behavior of each organisation often maps directly to these motives (albeit also, sometimes, perversely).

Secondary to that you have the fact that startups (and other private-sector organisations) fail and disappear all the time. Public-sector organisation's are enduring. If your defense force screws up and waste 100 billion dollars, there will still be a defense force the next day. This explains differing priorities around enduring, consistent activity and focus where in the private sector you might see full-blown pivots.

I like some of the stuff in the article's table but some of it is presented as a bit more immutable than is the case in reality. For example, fixed requirements on government projects versus agile/testing/story/feedback based delivery? Not true as a rule, lots of that kind of thing happening in the public sector. But fair as a broad generalization.
I'm also curious—and maybe someone here can chime in—about how you get organizational buy in for introducing ML. There are a couple of problem areas at my company that I think would be great for ML, but I don't know how to get others onboard.
Not quite. I’m saying that liberal judges tend to ignore the law when it comes to highly political issues.

For example, how many opinions have you read from Ginsburg where she says “I personally disagree with this outcome, but the law is clear.”? Quite rarely.

Show HN: I created an Opposites Game for my daughter and wanted to share:)
Hello All,

After going through my daughters prep interview process, the teachers advised that she needed to sharpen up on her opposites.

After searching the Google Play store and being a little disappointed at the state of the opposite games, I decided to create my own version for her (I also wanted an excuse to make a kids game :)

So without further ado, I give you the opposites game! :)
https://oppositesgame.com/

A couple of notes:
* I didn't create a scoring system as I didn't want to give the sense of "pressure" in the game
* A couple of ideas have popped up in my head about how I can make a spin on the game (maybe a bejewled style gameplay where you flip cards to match them?)
* I am in the process of creating an iOS version for the app store
* Would love thoughts, ideas and feedback

Other than the above, I hope you all enjoy :)
Thanks!

I think you're under a delusion that 'government' and 'capitalism' are separate things.
GraalVM is super exciting. Suddenly the major reason against adopting the JVM for certain use cases has gone away: start-up time. That said, I’ve spent a couple hours trying to get GraalVM to produce a native image of a moderately complex Scala project (20 kloc) I work on in my spare time, and can’t get it to work.

Would be nice because supposedly not only does GraalVM reduce start-up time but features some highly aggressive optimizations ideal for abstraction heavy code/languages (like scala). Would be nice to use because scala generates garbage like it’s no tomorrow.
Not quite. With aadhaar, you don't see the data the state has access to.

I'm very much concerned with the surveillance however as they say, good fences make good neighbors.
I tried Illumos a while ago, and was pretty stoked for Solaris in general because it was where ZFS performed the best but at the time it was pretty darn hard to use because of the extremely scattered documentation (this was before ZFS on Linux even close to ready).

I don't have a source at the ready, but my understanding is that the existing law and/or case law determined that traveling domestically entitled one to such protection. Various federal agencies have determined via rule making that such protections do not extend to international ports of entry/airports for reasons of national security. Those determinations are what have been struck down in this case.

You'd lose a lot and I'm not sure what you gain. Sans a few niggles here and there, WASM is pretty great for the web. It's small, lightweight, sandboxed, verifiable, fast to JIT, has fallbacks to ASM.js/stock JS, mostly easy to compile to, simple to build tooling for, etc.
No. TSA doesn't search smartphones and laptops, and the searches they do apply to everybody. When you search everybody equally, courts have ruled it's not a 4th amendment violation. See drunk driving checkpoints.
Donations and patreon, etc, sure, I can buy... but I don't think they'll pay for a feature film with a $150M budget.

Basically all the others require some sort of publisher exclusivity or friction on republishing that just doesn't exist today.

I also fear that ... trying to get exclusivity through restrictive contracts in the absence of copyright protection could be a cure worse than the disease.
Right, I was being sloppy - I guess was really thinking "memory addresses", not "memory".

Anyway, that's great to hear! Any suggestions for discussions and such that one could follow to see how it develops?
Certainly an unpopular opinion, but perhaps the comment you're responding to means profiling in a different way?

The way I typically understand profiling is that it's done to anyone who has features (skin tone, facial hair, clothes, etc) similar to Xians regardless of those people's actual origin.

And since it's trivial to change your appearance from Xian to whatever-ian it seems pretty useless to profile in that way. Also, really annoying and alienating for those who happen to look like Xian.
Totally agree.

Last thing we should do is have radically open medical data. Some busybody parent could go out and search all the kids in in her kids' school who might have HIV or something. Or imagine all the crazies out there searching for a list of women in their town who have had abortions.

The only thing you do with open medical data is ratchet up the "crazy" in society. In an ideal world where everyone is rational, it's fine. But that world doesn't exist.
No, I was responding to a suggestion to ask users for the data that could otherwise be gathered by telemetry by saying that telemetry is better.
Listed authors of reports are a bit like credits in film, and similarly, in fields/production where you have a lot of special-effects/complicated scientific apparatuses/huge custom built computer clusters for doing the analysis, you get a lot of supporting personell that you might want to credit.

Why is airplane security different than other contexts?

That's not the real world. There have been white terrorists, christian terrorists, etc. There have been muslim terrorists from most countries. Sometimes they don't look culturally muslim at a glance - maybe we should bring back Fumi-e?

As an islamic terrorist, you just gave me a fantastic idea about how to beat your security. I won't go into detail, don't want to make it too easy in case some other terror group also figures out how to look like a WASP.
