Not worth considering.

These services generally require someone in the production facility monitoring them 24/7, along with some form of repair crews available 24/7. But, on the other hand, these are services that require 24/7 monitoring, even in the face of blizzards, earthquakes, hurricanes, or other natural disasters that severely impact physical infrastructure, and so they'll have contingency plans for "people can't come into work" scenarios.
People in the UK are usually referring to people that come from the country of Romania when they say Romanian. The ethnic meaning I don't think is used much over here.
MS Paint itself can run in Wine. I believe you can install it with winetricks.
Sorry - my assumption was that you're testing as well, but the reagent tests aren't perfect.
ESNI is still in draft.
I dunno if this is hyperbolic, but having a baby to fix a sleep schedule seems like an insanely complicated solution that carries a lot more side effects to a fairly trivial problem.
> you should be able to find the Firefox settings on your devices to disable DoH,

You should be able to find a buried config option to regain your privacy is _not_ a position that we should consider acceptable!

There are serious logistical challenges keeping the option off even at a household level.

At the moment it isn't difficult to block at the network level, but presumably they'll start evading those blocks eventually or otherwise the claim that this is intended to prevent monitoring by ISPs will seem pretty hollow.
Better than nothing, but best to just read Dijkstra's article on the subject. (Spoiler: Because zero-based indexing is dramatically better than any alternative.)
I've run into people who believe those claims. I've also run into people (on Reddit) who believed that some wealthy billionaire was buying a lot of Teslas in 2019 and hoarding them in parking garages in plans of launching a self-driving car once the software can do it. When I pointed out the absurdity, I was shocked by how many disagreed. It took time to even realize how many were legitimately not joking.

Thankfully, this line of thinking is far from the majority.
Time flies when you're having fun ;-)
"Your ISP is literally selling this information right now in the US"

Your ISP will literally still be able to sell this information after DoH is rolled out. Because they can see what IPs you're connecting to and in most cases hostnames can be trivially and automatically determined knowing only the IP.

Unless we centralise HTTP through a handful of gateways like we're doing with DNS (hello Cloudflare). At which point, why even bother calling it the web anymore.
You don’t have to do a lot to get a TedX talk, I guess.
Quoting generally limits you to 10-20% of the entire work quoted, and you must add a lot of detail to justify those quotes. You could maybe get around it by writing 100 books each that quote 1%.

Even then you might get into trouble if it can be shown your quotes are in order and thus you didn't apply any creative effort in choosing it. (out of order with page references so it can be assembled might be fine).

All of the above with a ton of maybe. It all depends on factors that are not entirely settled and subject to change.
I disagree. Oliver seems to have a pretty international audience (and a personal ancedote, I have cousins in India who watch him). He covers international current events quite often and HBO content is widely distributed internationally, not to mention YouTube etc.
I'd imagine each of these companies has a bean counter for growing their subscriber base. When all insurers raise their prices a little on every policy renewal, people will rotate insurers and who's ever in charge of growth looks good due to new sign-ups, it justifies marketing spend, etc.
Pushback has begun against legal mandates for helicopter parenting in the US: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-range_parenting#Legal_sta...

Utah has made it explicitly legal to leave children home alone.

In response to a well publicized case where the police initiated a neglect investigation of parents who allowed their children to walk to a nearby park alone, Maryland issued a policy directive specifying that such investigations cannot be initiated solely because children are seen in public alone, without any indication of specific impending harm[1]

Even without anything fancy, is there a speed vs clarity parameter(s) when doing an MRI? It seems an easy improvement would be to spend more time getting a clear picture of the specific area of interest, vs now where the whole scan seems to be done at full clarity.
What is an "IT Cell"? I searched and I'm afraid I don't really understand the context.
I've wondered, with the late HN love of Credit Karma, and hate of Intuit, how many people with free tax returns would pay $3.99 to keep all their data from falling into an advertising database when they file. Who would pay .99c a month for the credit monitoring without also being subjected to credit card ads.

It seems silly that these companies dont offer both paths, to serve both markets.
Even when it was "just desktop shortcuts" you could never get a desktop as clean or orderly as the tiles (without 3rd party tools like Fences).

Live Tiles at their best made the Notification Center redundant. Have all your notifications in the "same place" every time and at-a-glance easy to read.

> Vista's Gadgets were nicer because you didn't have to open the Start Menu to see the weather.

Windows 8 had the right idea in making the Start Screen the default and making the Win32 Desktop "inside it" rather than the other way around. There just wasn't enough courage to let Windows continue to innovate after they lost the initial PR war. (Charms were a really good idea, the execution just needed cleanup. A tiling window manager by default was a really good idea, but they needed to sell the execution by better bringing Win32 applications into that world/window manager without the bulk of the rest of the desktop having to hobble along.)
To be honest, Amazon Go stores are ridiculously overkill.

They have cameras everywhere, and use face recognition, and all kinds of pattern detection algorithms just to determine what yogurt or salad you bought.

All they really need is just an app. Take a picture of your product or barcode, done. They can use the AI to recognize the picture of the product, like your fruits and vegetables. Or just scan the barcode.

Then, just walk out. Once you exit the gate, your Amazon account gets charged. No receipts. No cashiers. No more minimum wage jobs for a high school teenager. Done.

(Unless their goal is to do human pattern recognition, face recognition, movement detection, and gait detection? Which means they’re just using the Go stores as an experimental test bed, to freely capture all that valuable data. You consent to the data capture, just by walking into the store.)
I was chatting with some friends about the Astros the other day, and they pointed out something interesting.

This has caused a renewed interest in baseball. It will probably increase attendance anywhere they Astros play, because people will want to come out and root for their local team to "beat the cheaters".

It'll be interesting to see how the attendance numbers this season play out.
Final Cut 10 is a prank, I'm sure of it.

I’m a 10 years ios developer, and i also gave up tryin to write a small app in swiftui after having tried for an hour. It’s just impossible with the current level of documentation.

I think the picture is darker than what you’re describing : as long as apple doesn’t provide a real cross-platform environment (like google does with flutter, or facebook with react) then it doesn’t really matter what they end up doing with swift UI.

My intuition is that they know it, and that they’re working on something pretty big in that field, maybe as an improved , cross-platform version of swift ui. That would explain the lack of documentation (why document something that’s only a temporary version of a tech). But maybe i’m dreaming and everybody at apple live in its own bubble...
There is in aviation. It's called handoff latency. It's the time between autonomy giving up and asking for intervention, and the time when something bad might happen. In aviation this is measured in minutes, worst case tens of seconds. In cars, it can be sub-second and humanly impossible. This latency is why an autonomous car that works 95% of the time is more dangerous than driving manually. I haven't seen any indication that this problem is possible to solve until we get cars to 99.999%.
And just as a curiosity, were you taking nap? What about the weekend?

I'm curious as I have a few friends with a similar problem (I.e. struggling to wake up early for work). But they often party hard the week-end and wake up between 11am-3pm, so it's hard to tell if that's the reason it's so hard for them.
I don't agree with many of the points here. My partner bought a Tesla, I had little interest in them. I now would buy no other car. The autopilot has changed how I drive forever. We regularly take long three hour drives to get to a scenic spot that I would never consider doing in another car. With autopilot engaged, I am monitoring everything - probably with more accuracy then if I was driving, due to the decreased cognitive load. I don't get tired, like I do in an other car, with all the negative effects that come with that.

Im a safe driver, and autopilot makes me better at driving. I am not surprised that if you don't follow the instructions bad things can happen. (I believe statistically less than meat powered driving). That is on the human, not the technology.

The guy in the article was playing a phone game. He crashed into a barrier he had had problems with before.

Same guy, playing a phone game, whilst on cruise control in a BMW. Should we regulate that? No, we should regulate idiots in cars.
This rung true for competetive Halo. The novice was focused on aiming good and getting accurate with the bread and butter weapon (magnum or battle rifle depending on which halo you played)

The top players were great at the standard weapon, and a the power weapons, and the meta became:

- instead of individual kils - teamwork to double team a single opponent

- map positioning to control where the enemy would respawn when killed,

- timing when the power weapons on the map would regenerate.

key skills became teamwork, coordination and communication when everyone is a good aim.
If you like the Laundry Files there is another series of books with a similar premise and setup but slightly more towards the dark humour side of things called Oddjobs.

If you have a kindle prime sub they are included.
athletes risk their lives cheating all the time, throughout all history, without even any financial incentive.

race car drivers using fake, lighter roll cages, cyclists using EPO to make their blood so thick they might die in their sleep, baseball players using cocaine and steroids. this happens not just where there is big money but amateur ranks where nothing is on the line except winning.
Or because you don't want to risk users forgetting very long passwords. (Everyone should be using a password manager, but sadly that isn't the case.) That's generally the reason that limit is set.
But moving factories to the US just decreases your exposure to China-related epidemics, natural disasters and other crises at the expense of increasing your exposure to US-related epidemics, natural disasters and other crises. You’re just trading one risk factor for another.

Reducing economic relations with another country means you have less power and influence over them, not more. Having hundreds of billions of dollars worth of trade conducted between two countries and having millions of their jobs tied to international trade is a good incentive for them not to antagonize you too much.
> I don't get why we aren't looking into slightly changing our roads to better work with self driving cars when all it takes is a little more paint.

Because 99.9999% of drivers are human and have no issues seeing the concrete barriers and not hitting them head on at full speed. Until self driving is better than humans in all cases it will not be acceptable.

Nobody will spend money to adapt roads to self driving cars until they comprise a significant percent of cars (read: decades from now, if ever)
Seems to be a trend lately. Google recently announced they will start blocking downloads from http websites. Doesn't sound like a bad idea -- but isn't this more a discussion for IETF as well?
Often these articles are written by students who either failed their exam or scared to fail it. People who actually know the subject get paid either for lectures or for real work.
My friend has one and uses the auto-pilot responsibly, works very well. Until someone shows me concrete evidence that autopilot is responsible for an inordinate amount of accidents at a rate higher than normal human driving,...this seems like a huge waste of time and fear mongering.
Is there a cite for that study? Everyone wants to scream about these things being dangerous, but we're still stuck in the noise floor. There are still only four Tesla autopilot fatalities over the 5.5 years it's been available, the last just shy of a year ago. And the number of cars sold (and presumably autopilot miles driven) has been rising rapidly during that period.

I mean, seriously: if this technology "kills!" we really should have some statistics on that by now, right?
I suspect you've missed a subtlety about the situation. If there was a black population, and I've referred to them all as "black thugs" then that's racist. If there's a subset of the population who are thugs and black, and I refer to them as black thugs then that's descriptive.

Like, if he said "the a Romanian programmers gather outside at lunch to smoke", that's not racist if that's what the Romanian programmers do, it's simply descriptive.

Sure, sometimes there's an underlying motivation of unnecessary racial discrimination behind why someone points out a fact, but facts aren't racist of themselves.
I had State Farm in Texas. I knew I was paying more than other people, but didn't bother to switch.

Then one day while I was on the way to IAH to fly to Europe, an illegal alien in a stolen van (so no license, insurance, etc...) crossed the median and hit me head-on.

State Farm took care of everything. Ev. Ry. Thing. Even made sure I didn't miss the flight.

When I came back to America a couple of weeks later, my completely repaired car was sitting in their parking lot waiting for me. That's why I stick with State Farm, and am OK paying more than I would for "discount" insurance.

anecdotal evidence with n=1, but I'm a Tesla owner who refuses to pay for the "Full Self Driving" tech, expressly because I think it's way further off and overhyped compared to what I'd actually want for the cost.

I especially think the "your car becomes a taxi and pays for itself" gimmick is beyond fantasy. I chalk it up to Musk being an actually mildly insane CEO, which has benefits to go with its downsides.

As for the cost of the car, I wanted an EV with more range than other manufacturers provided. (I also make use of the longer range on a regular basis--probably about 2 times a month?) (edit:) I also wanted a car that Went Fast. Not practical in any real sense, but a lot of fun.

There are around a dozen Tesla owners at my company. As far as I know, none of them are banking on their cars being a taxi and earning tons of dough. At least one has the FSD upgrade, and uses it primarily to back his car out of the garage on its own so his kids don't bang up the doors when they get in.

All of the laws passed by Congress as well as case laws arising from court proceedings are public. By your definition, our legal system is also very transparent. But that doesn't mean you don't need a lawyer just to navigate this voluminous corpus of information.
I guess most of the people against this change have been lucky enough to never live in a place where the internet is actively censored.

It must be nice living in a place where you don't have to worry about access. But for many of us, there's no point in privacy without access.
I think DoH itself is a good thing. What seems fishy though is hardcoding Cloudflare as the default DoH service.
This article title is disingenuous since its a previously Fox owned Indian broadcaster decided to block something the Indian government might not like, which is broadcast on HBO. I highly doubt Disney even cared or even paid attention to it until the clickbait headline.
==I personally think offering immunity to get players to testify and then reversing course and using that testimony to punish those players would do much more harm to baseball than this scandal.==

This could very well be true. As is, the MLB has created a precedent for cheating without ever having to face penalties.
they have pretty much updated their website from the days of claiming they could do it to a much more restricted form of driving assistance, implying they will get there one day.

I own a Tesla Model 3, going in for the hardware 3.0 upgrade tomorrow, and I use the auto steer feature a lot more than I used to. The traffic aware cruise control portion is very good, as robust as any other maker. The automatic steering is LKA on steroids and does fine on open highway and back roads. It tends to caution, slowing for curves I would not even bat an eye at, and for cars turning off the road it does not even begin to accelerate until they well off the road. It is simply magical at night even in the rain.

It is not without its faults. I have a few spots on my drive I know it will mess up, mainly with horridly marked exits that will want to follow instead of maintaining its lane.

The worst part, except on interstates it is limited to five miles an hour over the marked limit. Which means on many parts of my commute I would either annoy a lot of people or get run down by some. Still I consider it as assistant that I meddle with.

I have never ever liked the name autopilot and really had hoped they would shutter the name until it was much closer to level 4. I was surprised no government has forced them to change the name, it implies far more ability than it has and worse too many people have this near magical connotation of what the term implies.

Yes it is dreadful some have died while driving this car or any other. The simple fact here is, regardless of features you are damn idiot if you are using your phone while driving let alone watching videos. I don't care what you think you were promised you know you are in the wrong so stop it.
What people fail to notice that high throughput restaurant applications already use a lot of automation.

Your Starbucks barista isn't carefully timing the blend on your frappucino. Nope, the scoop stuff into a blender and hit the frap button. McDonalds has all sorts of specialized cooking equipment that removes judgment and streamlines the process of preparing meals. A great example is the automatic drinks filler with its conveyor belt full of cups.

This represents the low hanging fruit for automation.

It's surprisingly tricky to make machines that don't mutilate workers in the vicinity and can handle all the weirdness that reality presents, even if it is only in the reduced scope of "how to make a hamburger". Throwing a robotic "elbow" into someone can be pretty damaging, working safely with knives and cooking temperature devices is even harder.
YMMV and all, but I've had a similar experience with just adaptive cruise control for long drives. Driving the 7 hours from LA to Utah became pretty easy to do without having to break/speed up every few minutes with normal traffic. It still falls short in stop and go traffic, which I think teslas do well in.
> is tesla promoting them?

Well selling something called "full self driving" sure sounds like it promotes that view.

One year auto insurance in the US is actually super common. I never had it offerered/suggested to me until I became a homeowner - at which point my broker got me a small discount for doing a full year policy for both home and auto.
> It's entirely doable and most extensions can work fine without knowing every single URL you open.

It's needed by: Greasemonkey (to determine whether to run a script), content blockers, password managers (to determine whether to fill in on that site) and any extension running web-standards compliant javascript against a page's DOM (i.e. any page-modifying extensions) as inherent part of standards-compliance

In theory, yes. But in reality mozilla has been making it more and more difficult to install extensions. You cannot install extensions not signed by mozilla on stable firefox. They already have assumed exclusive control there.
> I've noticed myself able to sometimes get some huge breakthroughs in the late night hours.

My personal theory on this is that something dream-associated is still switching on from a purely hours-awake scheduled mechanism.

Dreams are inherently creative and cerebral, and it feels like I'm just tapping into some of that by staying up late and working while my brain is wearing pajamas.

I don't know if you've ever dabbled with more extreme forms of sleep deprivation, but at a certain point, in my experience, a full-on wakeful dreaming state is entered where fully featured dreams are playing in the visual field while the eyes are still open. The brain definitely has the ability to essentially dream while awake. Experiencing those things made me start suspecting sleep deprivation was a way to tap into the dream world for productivity/creativity/focus advantages.
