>“The agreement — signed by Amy Dacey, the former CEO of the DNC, and [Clinton campaign manager] Robby Mook with a copy to [Clinton campaign counsel] Marc Elias— specified that in exchange for raising money and investing in the DNC, Hillary would control the party’s finances, strategy, and all the money raised,” Brazile wrote in the story under the headline “Inside Hillary Clinton’s Secret Takeover of the DNC.”

>Brazile added of the deal: “[Clinton’s] campaign had the right of refusal of who would be the party communications director, and it would make final decisions on all the other staff. The DNC also was required to consult with the campaign about all other staffing, budgeting, data, analytics, and mailings.”

In this specific case? Because Iowa wanted to be the first contest in the nomination process, but NH legally gets to run the first primary. Caucusing is an older alternative to voting that served as a loophole to allow Iowa to go first.

South Australia is moving toward that, which is largely desert despite it's temperate climate south eastern region and coastlines.

They recently started putting together an interstate connector to other states, which allows the state to export excess power from renewables. In part to help offset grid reductions as NSW brings some of it's fossil fuel plants offline. They already have had some 100% renewable days, but plan to be 100% renewable by 2030.

Another quirk of SA's energy history was Elon Musk offering to help solve grid costly instability with a battery solution within 100 days or it was free. Odd tactic, but it happened and they have a 100MW battery reserve in Hornsdale that is set to expand to 150MW.

No, I was specifically talking about Content ID, as that is the one I used in the past (challenging on fair-use grounds). You can appeal a claim, which is usually rejected by the claimant. You can appeal that which, when rejected, will add a copyright strike to your account and then you can appeal that which removes the strike but requires you to provide contact details in case the claimant wants to sue you.

Disruption 2020: The Last Interview with Clayton M. Christensen
HuffPost has some more details here:

- State campaign finance records indicate the Iowa Democratic Party paid Shadow, a tech company that joined with ACRONYM last year, more than $60,000 for “website development” over two installments in November and December of last year.

- The Iowa Democratic Party had refused to reveal details about the app, including the company behind it and what security measures were being taken to safeguard the results, arguing that it made the technology more vulnerable to hackers.

- In 2018, the group funded an onslaught of ads on platforms like Facebook and Google.

I have the revving up and down issue on all MSI B450 boards (as do many others) with any cooler unless I set an unreasonably flat fan curve or just peg it at a fixed percentage. The only difference with the high end coolers is their effective speed is slower and quieter so it's barely noticeable.

I have been feeling like there's an issue with the board/BIOS/AGESA's PID control algorithm.

How Digital Design Drives User Behavior
This year, caucus participants also have cards on which they write down which candidate they supported in each round. So there’s a verifiable trail beyond the head counts.

Early reports on the radio mentioned that people trying to call in and relay the results were waiting ages on hold, but they also said that the reason phones were so heavily used was that the app was giving inconsistent results. I never heard any more about what that could mean exactly.
It really feels to me comically childish behaviour.

That's a pretty good price if that includes a 24-track board, which cost many multiples of that new back in the day.

Other big costs at the professional level included hardware gates, compressors, tape machines (2 inch analog IIRC), the software (Cubase) and the Macs with the memory and storage required to run it, and staff -- a few engineers and manager employed by the studio and the hired guns brought in for specific tasks.

I was just listening to "Justified & Ancient," one of The KLF's hits from 1991/1992. I don't think it would have been possible to do a song like that (and the remixes) with the Amiga and other low-cost home gear of that era. It's really complex and layered, and Jimmy Cauty and the people he worked with were really pushing the capabilities of the software and studio hardware they had at their disposal. Check out these two mixes of that song:

https://youtu.be/RPjggN-KByI

https://youtu.be/LWuPPMTiuRw

They shifted key with some very complex backing harmonies to make the two versions. It's possible they did that in the studio with singers, but I suspect that was probably done at the console, with hardware and software handling the shift. It would save a lot of time (and money) applying tech for that use case.

Of course, nowadays it is like you said -- the bedroom/home studio model followed by Billie Eilish and her brother and practically every other up-and-coming artist.

The technology shift is very liberating, and opens up music to a much wider range of artists, but there's something lost, as well. A really powerful documentary about this trend was made by Dave Grohl some years back about Sound City in L.A. and the Neve console that powered recordings by Neil Young, RATM, Tom Petty, and more.

The drop from 92% to 75% isn’t the complete story, or even the more important story.

The real problem is all the other nonsense people have to deal with.

We have a really great employee who single handedly wrote most of the company’s build infrastructure, and was happy in the US on his H1B because while it requires renewal every 3 years, he was well paid and enjoying his life.

Until about a year and a half ago when he went back to renew his visa in India but didn’t get an approval for about 6 months. The approval process required the company to submit the salaries of the entire 15000+ global employees from the janitors to the CEO.

Once his visa was approved, he packed his bags and moved to Toronto within a couple of months. And our company has stopped hiring more tech workers in the US because they don’t want to have to deal with this anymore.

This is dumb, and subtly evil too. We can have the cake and eat it too:

The point is to keep the growth of scientific understanding and of technical know-how without producing too much physical crap that is hard to recycle and overloads the environment. We need to:

(1) move our economy to more non-physical / virtual goods and service - we're doing this, but we could do better, since there are still lots of "status goods" (with little practical survival utility) that are physical and damage the environment by their production and operation - the rich should be able to buy better VR-avatar spells or exclusive-in-game-diamonds or whatever instead of cars, yachts, expensive to maintain houses etc.!

(2) make warfare fully digital in means and virtual/economical in consequences - 99% of conflict should be cyberwarfare-with-low-environmental-impact - like in "hacking to steal coins from country X's national budget wallet", not "hacking to sabotage industrial infrastructure" (sure, people will still die when country X goes bankrupt and nobody living there has health insurance anymore, but this shouldn't happen that often...)

A solution for accelerating (1) would be increasing research into how to make virtual stuff feel real and be more and more addictive - real-world "stuff" should feel soul-crunchingly-boring to our dopamine addicted brains (why go on a cruise ship or travel to Tropifukistan, when you can ride a dragon around Hogwarts and earn $$ if you're good at it!) For (2) it probably helps that everyone getting to have WMDs makes everyone scared s`less of larger scale military conflict. Oh, and fear of communicable diseases also helps move towards (1), as we can see now, but I'd personally prefer alternative "solutions"...

So we're probably heading in the right direction, we just need to stabilize the symptoms/consequences of environmental degradation short-term, and to push-the-pedal-to-the metal to disconnecting our consumption-oriented economy from the physical world (and on a parallel track go for the space-colonization-game for actual physical action - the fans of "real war", could have it too, but outside Earth, heck they could even bring in the nuclear toys, space is large).

>Why don't they just vote via paper ballot?

Because Iowa chose to have a caucus, not a primary.

I think that ship sailed when they they shipped the new Mac Pro. That would have been the place to start.
My friend's dad was into electronics. He bought one of the samplers from the local Radio Shack, opened it up, figured out how it worked, and started making his own. He sold them to us for about $40. Which was so much money as a kid (and in the 90s), but damn it was awesome.

I ended up recouping the costs of the sampler many times over though: the local radio station had a competition of "guess what this song-played-backwards is and win $100". I'd sample the song snippet as they played it, reverse it in a tracker (like in the video where he reverses the reverse cymbal) and get the song... then it was just a matter of being the correct caller - battling mostly against my other friends with our home-made samplers. I won $500 doing that!

[Edit: oh, you mean the computer hardware, not the sampler hardware! My A500 was second-hand, no memory upgrade (grr) - and if my parents got it for me then there's no way it was more than a couple of hundred bucks ;) ]

> Stick with what worked for hundreds of years,

In Iowa specifically, I’d disagree - primaries are a more robust and inclusive system than caucuses.
The one fundamental reason why growth is so important is that without growth, the economy becomes a zero sum game. In order for you to get more money you must take it from someone else since there is only a fixed amount. A low growth world is one where we plunder each others' wealth, not one were the incentives are aligned with building new industry.

That's why productivity increases are so important. Without them, if we want growth, we have to get it from positive sum games. I'm skeptical that will provide enough to stop people from reverting to a more Malthusian plunder mindset.

Any vision of a non-growth world needs to take that into account. Without growth we'd have to fundamentally rethink how we handle distribution without reverting to bloodsport.

> So until you put in locale handling, alternate line endings, option handling, and error handling, I don't see that your post is at all convincing.

That's precisely what the second part would be about.

And, if I succeed, IMO, that's where Haskell would really shine (because composability and local reasoning), and where I would be able to claim to achieve something — the stuff in the post we're discussing is indeed trivial (I didn't want to say that in the post itself though as I think it'll look like I'm belittling the guy who did the original post), while modularizing this is _fun_.
Engaging in casual racism and reinforcement of harmful stereotypes without repercussions can indeed be riotous amounts of fun. I’ve played the game.

I choose not to do so any longer, and I encourage you to reconsider as well. We can and should do better.

There are lots of ways to have equal amounts of fun that don’t involve tons of reinforcement of harmful and backwards stereotypes. Our choices matter.

Employee owned sounded good when I joined my last company, but there was one downside that led to it's demise! The founders were both in their 80s and their estate was going to sell their shares (plus a lot of early employees with many shares were retiring). Unfortunately the company could not get enough cash to buy the hundreds of millions needed for this - so the company was sold at a discount to a larger competitor.
I will add Kettlebell swings to Squat and deadlift. They are one of the best all round exercise for muscle development particularly around the lower back and for cardio as well. In fact, I haven't come across a full body muscle building and cardio exercise that can match Kettlebell swings.

The timebases which are transmitted by the GNSS systems are in turn synchronized to the TAI network, which are all located on Earth's surface. Time does appear to be passing noticeably slower on Earth's surface compared to precision clocks in orbit. Even on the surface if you measure very carefully, you'll find that the SI second varies with respect to TAI depending on your altitude above mean sea level, too.

Civil time is therefore already partly divorced from the SI second due to this effect. Why not divorce it the rest of the way?

> There's no such thing as 'underlying worth' :)

The primary function of an asset is to generate income - through dividends, rent, bond interest etc. This income determines asset's underlying worth.
The context matters. Look at these sentences:

>The most important data I needed was the percent of men that these females tended to “like.

>The females who responded to my questions could have lied about the percentage of guys they“like”

>I have to assume that in general females find the same men attractive.

>Most females only “like” the most attractive guys.

>According to my last post, the most attractive men will be liked by only approximately 20% of all the females on Tinder.

>According to this analysis a man of average attractiveness can only expect to be liked by slightly less than 1% of females (0.87%).

In sentences where men and women are mentioned together, more often than not, "female" is used instead of "woman".
Ah, so it uses "Hardened SHA1", which detects if you are trying to exploit SHA1, and then produces a longer, unambiguous hash. But otherwise Hardened SHA1 has the same output as SHA1, so it's a drop in replacement.

Then it also has a similar looking-ish migration to SHA3-256.
I’m just guessing it was a combination of (1) an app could be distributed / authorized to only specific email addresses, so far less chance of interruption than you’d get if the website got leaked to the public, and (2) wanting to simplify the reporting logistics by just having people use their private phones, rather than having to set up laptops and internet, and possibly (3) an attempt to stick a toe into the realm of widespread voting by app.

Of course there’s always the possibility it’s a simple matter of (4) someone lobbying politicians into giving money to his brother to slap together an app, because government money.
