In my view, math suffers from getting pulled in multiple directions all at once. It is:

* A tool for solving practical problems.

* A sorting hat for the more lucrative college majors.

* An introduction to formal thinking and abstraction.

* A score in a tournament called high school.

* A source of entertainment, mystery, and beauty.

It's hard to convey all of these things at once, and there may be social or political pressures to prioritize certain aspects over others. I was a math / physics double major, and then went to gradual school in physics. I was propelled by different aspects of math at different times, perhaps as I passed from one mentor to the next, or was swayed by my many side interests (programming, electronics, music).

I've tried explaining to my kids that the curriculum du jour, whatever it is, will give them practice with the mechanics of math, so that they're not bogged down in it when they're ready to meet math on their own terms.
I got various scripts here: https://github.com/arp242/dotfiles/tree/master/local
I’d only consider upgrading to the new Kinesis due to the mechanical F keys. The previous ones feel really weird.
McMansions are actually quite livable for the primary target market: upper middle class suburbanites with small children who like to entertain occasionally. The major home builders literally employ sociologists who research how families actually live in their homes and use that to help their architects design new floorplans.
Absolutely not. Spying, even on America’s friends, is important for our foreign policy and for staying on top.

I think you are confusing the world of geopolitics with concepts like “fair” and “good” and forgetting Lord Palmerston’s quote: “
Nations have no permanent friends or allies, they only have permanent interests.”
OTOH it’s a car and driver long term test car, so one would hope that entropy wouldn’t affect it much. If you’re saying it’s common for many vehicles to just die while parked, I don’t think that’s really a thing yet.
This is deeply unfortunate. I know the folks at Maxmind fairly well, and they're good people. I'm quite sure this isn't what they wanted to do, and that they've pushed their lawyers to let them continue distributing this data as much as is possible, in a way that is as gentle as possible. I applaud them for their efforts; it is appreciated.

Unfortunately, it's also clear to me that this renders the Maxmind geoip databases non-free. I've filed bugs for the removal of the geoipupdate package from Debian main, and I believe the geoip-database maintainer has already terminated updates.
It's the same mental mistake as when people are more afraid of flying than driving.

The shock value of a few high profile accidents overpowers the dull constant killing of a few random people all the time. The total numbers play no part in this equation.
That doesn’t make sense to me. Of course if you do business with the US you are subject to US law. And if you travel to somewhere with an extradition treaty with the US, well, it shouldn’t be hard to guess what will happen. If I defrauded a Chinese bank I would expect to be arrested if I traveled somewhere with extradition to China.

What do you mean about the US banks having a legal say? The government is the one doing the prosecuting.

And if they were lied to, then how would they know that their money would be used to violate sanctions? Are you saying that they should have known that Huawei was lying, therefore it’s their own fault? Maybe that’s the case, but it doesn’t have any bearing on whether a crime was committed.

Edit: And that doesn’t change the fact that your original comment was highly misleading. I’m sure you can come up with some argument against the US position, but you should have done that in the first place instead of posting a strawman.
Not exactly the same, but there's a throttling feature in Chrome dev tools.
Ya, things definitely get more complicated the closer you get to the top.

1. A book title. If it wasn't obvious.
I read the book. He has a few good ideas but some of the patterns are frankly just stupid and would be miserable to live with in a real home. Don't take it too seriously.
I would be really grateful if someone can summarize the details of how people project $12b in costs and explain the modeling.

I know that a lot of work has been done into economic impacts of climate change / air quality, and I've been interested in knowing how people make, project and test these models for some time.
It never ceases to astound me how many minor variants on 3-clause BSD retain clause 4 (the endorsement clause), despite not carrying the historical baggage of clause 3 (the advertising clause).

It made sense for 4-clause BSD (and its unbulleted predecessor) as a qualifier on clause 3: although advertising materials must contain the acknowledgement, it should not be presented such that could be misconstrued as an endorsement. Even when striking clause 3, clause 4 remained inoffensive enough to not warrant making more than the minimal change.

But for new work without that history, it's a total non sequitur.
Is sudo required? I get

> Well into the 1950s...

Why do you think this has stopped?

Corporate interests have always steamrolled over small and large entities in their way.

examples: oil companies or military contractors and countries (including ours). walmart or telcos/isps and local governments.

Hopefully there are enough good eggs in power to counteract this.

I think the flying vs driving is mostly about control.

"I'm not flying the plane, therefore I have no choice on whether my death could have been prevented"

Coal vs Nuclear has to elicit the same response...

You should read that gervais principle from ribbonfarm.
Unless foregin governments continuously poll and save data from FB and IG apis (which is possible) all of that can be faked or deleted. The US intelligence community has deep pockets and relationships to tech companies. You scan a face, and up pops a legit looking FB account.

I think the article makes it clear that data from many sources is being used and that there's no one "source of truth". It also points out that there's an increasing sophistication to the creation of online presences.
#2 is also risky as the investors often tend to ditch the early leadership

Significantly less true now than it used to be. And significantly less common in engineering than in other disciplines. A detailed knowledge of the codebase is an incredibly valuable skill for a technical leader. An outsider will take years (if ever they ever do) to build up the knowledge that someone there from the beginning already has.
Is there a source for this story?

My 12th grade US history teacher. Circa 1973.

I found a Wikipedia discussion, but it is by no means dispositive: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRT_Sixth_Avenue_Line#Allegati...

The NY Times also touched on it: https://www.nytimes.com/1995/06/11/nyregion/fyi-811695.html
"Look at the boring explosion. Did that entire hillside just vaporise? How boring!"

Said no one ever

I remember a chemistry teacher running around in panic because he dropped a sample of something (phosphorus or sodium ?) on his shoe and it was stuck. He had carefully taken it out of a small oil filled container. Smoke filled the room. His shoe was burnt and four classes surrounding that lab were evacuated.
A one-time pad certainly does.

Confidence is subjective; personally I would gladly hedge my entire net worth against ChaCha20 ever being broken.
I have one. I use it to access services and machine on the network.
Took over responsibility for some shell scripting glue. Task: migrate to new servers. "How hard can it be?" 2 months later I am still completely lost. I have random input/output files going everywhere, complete flustercuck of perl dependencies, and ftp processes I can't test lest I bork prod.

Edit: and even if I "succeed" I'm pretty sure it needs a total rewrite. I think I'm performing a cross-org table join using ftp and text files with undocumented time dependencies.
The world running on top of C and Linux being popular have nothing to do with this. Have you looked at what TIOBE claims to measure? They very specifically say it’s not about the number of lines of existing code. It’s supposed to be a measure of the popularity of the language.

From their site (https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/):

“The TIOBE Programming Community index is an indicator of the popularity of programming languages. The index is updated once a month. The ratings are based on the number of skilled engineers world-wide, courses and third party vendors. Popular search engines such as Google, Bing, Yahoo!, Wikipedia, Amazon, YouTube and Baidu are used to calculate the ratings. It is important to note that the TIOBE index is not about the best programming language or the language in which most lines of code have been written.”
Mathematical diseases in climate models and how to cure them
When the sun goes down, colour temperature is determined by the alternative light source. For most of the past 100,000 years, life on our rotating planet has relied on moonlight (cold) or firelight (warm) to see at night.

Incandescent lights (Edison light bulbs) are a bit cooler than the candles and (most of the) oil lamps they replaced.

Bright cold (high Kelvin rating) lighting at night is a very modern invention:

Temperature (K) Source

1,700 Match flame

1,850 Candle flame, sunset/sunrise

2,700–3,300 Incandescent lamps

3,000 Soft White compact fluorescent lamps

4,100–4,150 Moonlight,[2] xenon arc lamp

5,000 Horizon daylight

5,000 tubular fluorescent lamps or Cool White/Daylight compact fluorescent lamps (CFL)

5,500–6,000 Vertical daylight, electronic flash

6,500 Daylight, overcast

6,500–9,300 LCD or CRT screen

15,000–27,000 Clear blue northern sky

Wow, David Morgan-Marr does neat language projects as well as the awesome webcomics? That guy is a machine.
This reminds me of the instance where data from a sports app used by US soldiers revealed army bases world wide, including secret ones. The main reason why this was found out is because it was available to everyone. But how many apps used by soldiers today have similar abilities to determine their location?

In general, it's getting harder to smuggle humans into different countries, but the vast deployment of hardware with questionable security properties world wide has led to major opportunities for intelligence agencies. The Internet of Things is the newest opportunity to collect data in large quantities.
Is it feasible for you to get a mentor or at least some occasional pointers from people whose intent you can trust? I’m led to believe that forums like reddit and stackoverflow are haunted by too many trolls but you may have contacts by now from your daily life.
This is terrible. Someone with access to server logs at a few web sites (or someone that loads a third party resource (ads, analytics, sharethis buttons, etc) onto a few web sites) would be able to know exactly who is coming from fbook and viewing different types of content.. no inside access to fbook or their data required.

Last time I used Maxmind the coordinates generally just seemed to be the coordinates of the city. And apparently my current IP is in the center of another city in roughly the same part of the country. Beyond the country and possibly the ISP I wouldn't trust Maxmind's data much.
I'd like to know more about your setup.

We're a small startup building infrastructure for developers. We do address problems like what you describe: enforcement of the exact library version requirements for each codebase, reduction of artifact egress costs, integration into the Jenkins workflow as well as into IDE for devs and QA, and more.

We've been looking for game devs who'd be interested in what we're doing.
Please reach out if you're interested.
Does it provide tools to lock down GPS and WiFi-based geolocation?

And turn off scanning WiFi APs? Just allow manual selection.

Also, can you flash firmware? Maybe wipe the GPS firmware?

Oh, and can you mess with the baseband?

Edit: I asked in the Termux Wiki.

I think there are significant differences between the level of capabilities of surveillance in the US and some of the countries mentioned in the article, and those differences are likely to persist or grow larger in the foreseeable future.
This might not be a common experience nowadays (sigh), but I encountered this problem a few weeks ago in Perl. The long-used module at https://metacpan.org/pod/Geo::IP now mentions "the GeoIP Legacy file based database" and has a link to http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geolite which actually redirects to https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/ . Interestingly, now that I look there again, it no longer refers (at the top of the page) to the January 2019 deprecation of the version 1 database, but now to "making significant changes to how you access free GeoLite2 databases starting December 30, 2019". (I now have to also review that for my workplace...)

Anyway, the new CPAN modules are under https://metacpan.org/pod/GeoIP2 and can be confusing. One confusing thing: despite a prominent Perl developer such as Dave Rolsky working (still?) at MaxMind, it says that the "module is deprecated and will only receive fixes for major bugs and security vulnerabilities".

For porting purposes, please note that the module you want to use is https://metacpan.org/pod/GeoIP2::Database::Reader . (They also mention https://metacpan.org/pod/MaxMind::DB::Reader which can makes things unclear...) I didn't see any other info on the github page about Perl support. Also the interface is definitely more tedious and object-oriented in the worst way. I'm sure there are good reasons... And in my experience it's much slower if you use the pure-Perl interface (this is something you should read the MaxMind::DB::Reader perldoc for: it mentions installing a C library in "PURE PERL VERSUS XS").

Good luck
My understanding is this - the core of the argument is that a profit making entity from China violated a foreign law in a foreign land. And people were getting nationalistic about it without understanding that an agreement means you agreed on something (in this case, not to do something) and violating that has consequences as per foreign law because the company is operating in a foreign land that isn't their own.

For example, if some company from my country violated US (or wherever they operated) law and got penalized for that (and they have been in the past, actually), I wouldn't be like "screw the US! I must support my country!!". I would just think "Oh, probably they shouldn't have done that" and move on. All I'm saying is it's surprising to me to see this kind of nationalistic knee-jerk reaction en masse. I have never witnessed it personally until now, so I shared my mere observation.
Considering plenty of chemistry can melt your face off or dissolve your lungs or otherwise make you disappear I'm happy that chemists have the sense to invoke formality and protocol in how they proceed. I'm guessing the better specimens are able to write their own protocols; know how they fail; know beforehand what is likely to happen and how to deal with it all. The lesser ones are likely ticking time bombs of rapid poisoning and spontaneous combustion.
> With this type of contingency plan, I don't see any reason to use server-side rendering at all

A case of vital context missing. Ever tried something like Next.js? It's a react framework for client + server-side rendering. What's really cool about it is that it does SSR for the initial view and the client-side react picks it up from there. It doesn't sound very impressive like that but where it blew my mind was when I realized that I could save URLs for some deeply nested view in a react site, enter that URL later and I'd get an instantaneous SSR'd view seamlessly.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that some tech is cool like that, not really a contingency plan but a plan.
I don't blame it on science. The principles of science are deliberately invented to get around this problem. Blame it on human behavior.

It's unfortunate to say that the very tenants science tries to eliminate are actually normal parts of human behavior. Our actions, logic and reasoning are dominated by emotion and an attempt to hold onto power. Status seeking and religious bias are normal parts of human behavior.

The irony of it all is that we hate this type of behavior but are seduced by it nonetheless. A good analogy is the Dark side of the force.

One thing I've seen people fall for is that they think they're immune to this bias by being aware that it exists. Nothing is further from the truth. We are all victims of bias and we are all not immune because to be biased is to be human.
Why bother with bugging a bathroom when most people will carry a wiretap device with geolocation there willingly? And continue to do so despite the evidence that device is actually listening? Then, why bother bugging a bedroom if people would put another listening-all-the-time device there too?
But then why bother even with that when most people will handle the most private conversations through one app or another that stores all the conversation history in a datacenter you have access to? And then, to make analysis of those conversations easier you get a generation that prefers texting over voice. I can't really imagine making it even easier to wiretap everyone and everything.
I wonder if the client could be built for web assembly
StarWars is dead to me.
> I don't have the same good feelings about the hashes or the asymmetric crypto yet.

You might be interested in https://electriccoin.co/blog/lessons-from-the-history-of-att... (caveat: it’s a few years old, and it might have mistakes). It’s an empirical view on the history of hash functions. The results were very interesting to me. Against collision attacks, it kind of seems like we figured out how to make hash functions secure against them in the 2000’s (compared to block ciphers, which I guess we mostly figured out in the 1970’s). Against preimage attacks, it seems like we figured out how to make hash functions secure against them as soon as we invented secure hash functions at all — in the 1990’s.
> Taiwan promotes nationalism of its own nation

Huh?

Kuomintang for a long time considered themselves a "tru Chinese", carriers of the spirit of the Chinese nation (as opposd to those godless commies).
Maybe expound on this a little? Considering the 757 was (am I wrong?) a medium body short/medium haul airframe, and the 767 was a wide body medium/long haul, how are they all related?
> Another way to get revenue, which doesn't itself transgress against these privacy-focused laws, is to charge directly for providing your service. That's totally legal!

Is that what the consumer wants? Also - is depriving services to those who aren't able to pay the fee to participate the right thing to do when they don't mind something like privacy focused advertisements?

Judging by all the people unwilling to purchase Youtube Premium I would say no.
not sure how it is related to the situation on hands
Is smarter-than-human AI as dangerous to humanity as climate change?
I disagree with your reaction.

With any another car, the car would fail to start with a generic idiot light. You would then arrange to drop it with the dealer with no expectation of diagnosis on the spot. Later they would call you up and let you know.

No manufacturer is immune to problems, even with very new cars.

In this case the major difference is the car proactively notified the owner of the problem.
The majority of receivers above a certain point have streaming radio, "cast", and/or "smart TV" features. Just like so much of the rest of the appliance world, most of those are powered by some random ARM or MIPS SoC running some flavor of Linux.

A modern networked AV receiver is sort of analogous to a managed switch, there's a fairly generic CPU running a general purpose OS presenting the user-facing interfaces, managing configuration, and handling some housekeeping tasks, then there's specialized hardware that actually deals with the signals and does the real heavy lifting after being set up by the general purpose processor..
In practice, you show up at the border of Russia and are detained (in my case, because virtually no Americans cross this particular border). A nice, younger FSB agent with some English skills asks you a battery of questions but doesn't really care about their job, asking if they can just fill in your address again when given your parents' address, because it's more work than it's worth to transcribe another address that no one will ever read. Later, an older, saltier, more senior FSB agent harangues you over some missing documents before getting bored and letting you go.

We have some amusing preconceptions of Russia that rarely survive the reality of Russia.
> I found a Wikipedia discussion, but it is by no means dispositive:

It seems fairly so on the claim that Japan bought the el, dismantled it, and shipped the steel home; it is less dispositive on the question of whether some of the steel either reached Japan or freed up other steel for shipment to Japan when it was dismantled by it's actual civic owners, who had no connection to Japan.
