Confused by downvotes. It is a historical fact that there were assassinations plots during the Cold War. It was investigated and declassified by Congress. For starters, look at the Church Committee, a U.S. Senate Committee from 1975, that investigated intelligence malpractice.

There should be nothing remotely controversial about these events existing.

Second, by asking a clarifying question I am not implying that the "US is not currently in the business of assassinating high-visibility targets" because I have no way of knowing this. I just want to clarify this person's point-of-view.
With So many vc Money the Space, what is your ambition of making this oss ?
In some fields you’d get torn to shreds for trying to base an entire paper around a single data point plus the post hoc fallacy, but apparently in the social sciences you can get away with it... as long as your research supports the correct politics.

If the research had shown a increase in suicide among that population over that period, do you suppose the authors would have attributed that to the legalisation of gay marriage?

I wonder if something like the PineTime would run Asteroid OS without much hassle. It seems to be a GNU/Linux distro under the hood.
I think you might be right in this case that practical use preceded theoretical understanding but that's not really my point. Software development certainly has examples of pseudo-math (for example there was a trend a few years back to write JavaScript that could run on both the server and the client. For reasons passing understanding, this was called "isomorphic" by some practitioners). All I meant was that ADTs are not that.

I wouldn't call that normal at all, nor does your theory address the issue of the permissions request being explicitly denied while still gaining access.
So part of the advantage of the approach is that we integrate with the existing system of the seller. Once they get some volume, we can calculate the following:

* Fill time: time from posting the order to the seller until they ship it as verified by their carrier integration

* Ship time: time from order being placed until ship time

* Complete time: time from order placement to notification of shipment on the consumer side

As time has gone on, we can tell who ships reliably and put those sellers in front of other buyers, etc. So eventually the data we have gives us and buyers and indication of how well vendors are adhering to SLAs around shipping times. Often the expectation is 24 hours, so it's not hard to red/yellow/green people into buckets and manage the buckets. Eventually we can offer our own SLAs for sellers we put in front of buyers but for now we're just gathering data and providing reporting.

Edit: to answer your question directly, we don't currently integrate with them. Generally speaking we can get the same data from the platform we integrate with, so it saves us from having to build N more integrations, but I agree the closer we can get to ground truth the better for vendor SLA.
No, that does not necessitate transactions to be public, just provable (and, arguably, legal).
In that case you are very fortunate.

I was running my own mail server for nearly 10 years on Hetzner. Prior to that on other hosts and in the distant past at home. Running mail servers is something I have done professionally and successfully.

The last time I moved boxes as I had many times before. I was on clean IP range but I had no IP reputation at all. In the past this wasn’t such a problem, especially with SPF, DKIM, rDNS, DMARC, server-to-server SSL etc. Around the same time I started having to deal with organisations (legal, etc for a death in the family and later rent) rather my my own circle of friends. It became extremely apparent that my mails weren’t hitting the inbox. But they were being accepted. This was extremely problematic.

I was in the group stating that running your own mail server isn’t hard. I still say that. The hard problem is convincing the big players to let your low volume domains and IPs hit the inbox. I begrudgingly gave up my MX servers last year.
So given that in most cases only the company has access to numbers and any multi-product company can choose not to reveal break down statistics.. I guess it's only positive pieces from now on?

Google is free to release positive spin articles and try to provide numbers to fit that. I don't think they will hesitate to provide more stats than we otherwise would have seen unless it is so grim that they have no way to frame it.
I just finished setting up Ansible to manage a bunch of Windows laptops. I basically just followed the example of Dag Wieers here[1][2], except that additionally every laptop is roaming with unstable IP addresses. So I used PageKite[3] to deal with that, although it would have been much easier if ansible-pull worked on Windows.

I know every experienced Windows admin would probably look poorly on my setup, but it feels really good to finally have some level of automation in managing these machines. It took me years to figure out a sane strategy under constraints like: OEM and retail software licenses only, employees retain admin privileges, no corporate network or VPN, unstable IP addresses, and (perhaps most importantly) no budget.

With constraints like that, it would also be a pretty good setup if you provide tech support to family and friends, as long as they trust you to backdoor their laptop.

Mostly just convention, but it's also a more flexible pattern. A public instance variable cannot have public reads, but private writes for instance.

There is also the case of derived properties. e.g.

Sounds like you have the same setup I have.

> the women did not approach the police with the intention of them pursuing any allegations about sexual assault.

I don't understand what were their intentions then. Its hard to fathom for me as to why someone wouldn't pursue criminal allegation against a person who raped them. Really bizzare.
Perhaps changing the Japanese constitution and letting them rebuilt their navy would be a better answer, though I don't expect that to happen.
> Encrypted SNI is solves exactly that and is becoming increasingly common.

Can you please elaborate? I know only this:

https://serverfault.com/questions/976377/how-can-i-set-up-en...

"Encrypted Server Name Indication (ESNI) is still an Internet Draft, you will not find it in any major server implementation as it is subject to change. In fact, the draft version implemented by Firefox supports draft-ietf-tls-esni-01 which is incompatible with newer draft versions."

Edit: I see Firefox Nightly is mentioned, it is the version that normal users who use Firefox (Firefox has at the moment less than 5% worldwide marker share) just don't use (it annoyingly updates every night).
Beside the Bungie games mentioned, there were tons of others. The first two Dark Forces, System Shock, Goldeneye just off the top of my head - all released before HL.

Solar panels and Steel Windturbines are manufactured from hydrocarbon feedstock.

Solar and wind drawdowns are powered by natural gas peaking.

Transporting energy intensive Cement and other feedstocks that are manufactured in areas of "renewables viability" are moved with non-renewables sources. (low sulfur bunker fuel maritime ships, diesel-lng-cng trucks, and large earth movers)

Most of the world's volumetric cement consumption happens in areas with low quality/intensity solar.

I will bet, without any specific inside knowledge, that the reason that Google hasn't already gone into banking is that they are looking at how to construct a "financial service company" that does bank-like things without being subject to the full force of OCC oversight.
This seems rather off topic and unproductive to the effort of solving the SO ticket. I highly doubt it's a matter of Google spying on developers, more likely a bug or weird interaction with the OS.

I basically agree with this rule. I find that my colleagues who overly hype unsupervised approaches typically don't have much experience working on ML problems without labeled data. My suspicion of this comes from the fact that whenever I give a talk on ML I always have a wealth of personal experience to draw on for examples. My colleagues almost always reuse slides from projects they never worked on.
Had never heard of it, thanks for the link. Just tried it. I think it muted the tinnitus to about 20%! Pretty good. Though, it only lasted about a minute. Back to normal now.
We won’t ever have an AI winter like in the 70s again. A lot of ML is already very useful across many domains (computer vision, NLP, advertising, etc). Back then, there was almost no personal computing, almost no internet, smol data, and so on. Stuff you need for ML to be useful and used.

So what if some corporate hack calls linear regression “AI”? The results speak for themselves. The ML genie is too profitable to go back in the bottle.
What I dislike far more than the idea of using such systems to predict social outcome is that the usage of such systems is done behind closed doors. I would be much more willing to accept such systems if the law required any system to be fully accessible online, including the current neural network, how it was trained, and training data used to train it (if the training data cannot be shared online, then the neural network trained from it cannot be used by the government).

Independent companies using AI is far less a concern for me. If they are snake oil, people will learn how to overcome them. Government (especially parts related to enforcement) is what I find scary.
Further signal: claiming general intelligence.

This is the correct approach, and I'm glad to see Microsoft is taking the lead here.

The operating system should support DoH. Any browser not respecting the operating system's DNS configuration should rollback their plans to hijack DNS requests (particularly Firefox) and entrust the network stack to the OS, as is intended.

I remember finding out I was homeless for a while during college. things just kept getting worse, and my 8 dollar an hour, 20 hours capped student lab job was really not enough to make rent. 4 or 5 undergrad classes at a time. first the car got sold, and then things started getting sold, utilities canceled, even cell phones dried up. then i was staying late at friend's places, having a drink or two and waking up in the morning in front of their television. friends really get you through the hard times, mine were so good to me, i didn't even know I was homeless those 90 days. couch to couch to couch.
Please don't do the "I'll never understand this" thing! Sure, it's possible that you never will, but mostly it's just about trying and practicing... IFAIUI the current scientifically supported thinking is that a good way to learn is to approach the subject from many different angles.
Something to do with encouraging your brain to form lots of connections from different concepts to the concept you're trying to learn...

I never thought I would understand point set topology, but for a few years I really did. (That was quite a few years ago, and since I haven't practiced... Well, it atrophied. Still remember my favorite proof, though! I also remember what a nightmare proof Stone–Weierstrass was :) ... amazing, but still a nightmare.)

In my own, very subjective, experience. It seems more people are "real" on Tik Tok. I just opened up the app, and the second video I saw, was a young woman talking about her Alopecia (an auto-immune disease that causes hair loss). I've seen similar videos about Scoliosis and Autism and lots of other issues people face. There are also a lot of queer creators on Tik Tok (though the company has had ongoing issues with removing queer content).

Tik Tok isn't free from toxic behavior or those problems with insta-models and travel vloggers by any means, but my impression has been that it's a surprisingly friendly and welcoming community, especially compared to a lot of other social networks

And how is open pricing incompatible with universal health care? Is your ideology so important to you that you will fight such an innocuous change?
I sort of support this for billionaires, however I don't trust the gov't to handle my tax dollars with any amount of reason or efficiency.

I also fear that in time the definition of "rich" will be adjusted down as far as politically possible in essence ruining the reason for anyone to work hard or aspire to be better at anything...

Also, there's nothing really stopping huge earners from just going somewhere else, some could view this plan as just another incentive for the rich to continue investing in ever more risky financial vehicles to sustain their wealth (ruining markets for anyone without an entire team of analysts gauging their investments) - or paying law firms to create new methods to obfuscate their wealth (which is already happening).
Lots of AI is actually large numbers of humans working on small bits of problems that are beyond our ability to automate. Not infrequently these are passed off on the outside as 'ai' startups. There are some good examples too where the companies that use machine learning properly and to good effect. Interestingly they don't blab about it because it is their edge over the competition and often just knowing that something can be done is enough to inspire someone else to be able to copy it.

So here is my own theory on how to recognize AI snake oil: if it requires advertising it is probably fake, if it is very quiet and successful it is likely genuine.

Of course SF doesn't compare to most of America. I live in an area closer to MCOL. Median houses are ~375k (and the median house is fairly spacious, 2 stories), while a median 1BR apartment rental is ~1.1k/mo.

When you add the fact that mortgage rates are low and house prices went up +50% last year, home ownership sounds pretty nice. People that bought a house a couple years ago have already broke even when you count equity.
Unless amnesty international has been bought by the Catalan separatist movement, we can probably go without "Beware: Propaganda" warnings on every nonagreeing opinion.

There are two sides here, both made up of real people. Further, it's perfectly reasonable (much like in Scotland, and also in Chile where the demand to rewrite a dictator-era constitution draws parallels) that the independentistas might have some coherent arguments. Let's let the reader decide without overtly trying to prime them. I promise they don't need to go far to find pro unionist opinions.

The Catalan separatist movement is not some Russian-made antivax Facebook group.

I would argue that Homer is more nuanced then Hollywood by a lot. And the Illiad does not make you feel so good about violence as Hollywood war movies either. When it comes to "making you think", they are miles better.

Hell, doesn't Steam ship with Chromium (or at least Webkit)? I wonder if it's possible to piggyback on that somehow?
But isn't this a bit of a catch 22 though? Do you honestly believe that this situation could have ended any other way, other than him being extradited to the USA?

I am saying, that no matter what happened, whether there was a secret order, or not, or whether an extradition order would have been sent, the moment he stepped out of the embassy (but otherwise did not "exist" prior to him stepping out of the embassy), what was going to happen is that he was going to be extradited to the USA.

And this prediction was proven correct. And the people who disagreed with this idea, owe the world an apology, for being entirely, completely, 100% wrong.

If you disagree, you are basically holding an unfalsifiable position. Because by doing so, you are saying that no matter if he actually gets extradite, like what just happened!, you are going to ignore the actual evidence of this prediction coming true!

It seems like there is no possible evidence or situation that I could show you, which would change your mind, because your argument is always going to be "Well, the order didn't exist before... but it does now".

I can't argue with this kind of unfalsifiable position.

If someone had predicted "this person is going to be extradited to the USA, at some point in the future", then this person was correct, and if you disagree with this person, and called them a conspiracy theorist, then you were wrong.
