> The ABA is not a lawyer disciplinary agency and has no authority to investigate or act upon complaints filed against lawyers. Each state has its own agency that performs that function in regard to lawyers practicing in that state. Locate your state agency from the Directory of State Disciplinary Agencies.

So you're not dealing with the ABA, but the underfunded and understaffed state board.

I wonder what their process is for deciding if a review should be removed. I just checked the listing page for a place I stayed at two months ago, and the (poor) review I left was still up, along with a few others.
I don't understand your point. In one sentence, you say that we should collectively be more okay with gray areas, but in the next you point out the triviality of going from gray to black. OP is still contributing to a massive surveillance system. I'm not sure why you'd think that leans on the lighter side of gray. Could you explain your point a bit more please?

The question was considered by the Swedish Supreme Court a few years ago, and it ruled that stores, transport services and such have no obligation to take cash as long as they clearly advertise they're cashless.

The legal reasoning is based on freedom of contract (avtalsfrihet). The shop has to take cash, but since what the shop does is enter a contract with you (agrees to sell certain goods for a certain price), it can choose to make cashless payment a condition of the contract. The same reasoning gives the shop the freedom to only accept paper bills and not coins for instance.

This doesn't apply to public entities as freedom of contract is much more limited or non-applicable there - a public hospital must allow patients to pay in cash.
Sounds kinda like the people who thought that bundling a bunch of bad mortgage debt together in slices could get it rated AAA.
Your timeline is interesting to me because it suggests you think Intel started to pull ahead with in 2006 Clovertown (quad core MCM with northbridge memory controller) rather than with Nehalem or Westmere (integrated memory controllers) in 2009-10.
Not only do they flip out (which means you leave a 5 star review to avoid drama) but if you have a really crappy host that cancels your reservation or run into any weird issues you are not ALLOWED to leave a review. Therefore the only reviews you are seeing are "successful" stays. I'm never going back to AirBnB. It's been hot garbage all the way down. Can't trust a thing on there.
I think I see a comment to this effect on every post about AMD, that their software ecosystem isn't as advanced.

But, isn't it a pretty narrow market that benefits from Intel's tooling here?

Startups running their entire business on JITed runtimes on top of multiple layers of virtualization in cloud providers aren't using this. Enterprises with enough resources to revise their entire stack to work on ARM (Cloudflare, Microsoft, Google, Amazon) likely have the internal resources and skills already to build the missing tooling and profile statistically using massive fleets of servers.

How large is the target market of Intel purchasers that are large enough and performance sensitive enough that it's profitable to micro-optimize assembly, and yet not large enough that it's a rounding error to build similar tooling for AMD x86-64 or ARM or otherwise?

You can also set your user agent to googlebot and get the old google images back. Also the search results don’t look as bad.
I think you need a dashboard with animated graphs (preferably in bright colors on a dark background with thin text that has just enough color contrast to indicate that there's text there at all) to help track KPIs. With push notifications if even/odd distributions veer outside of a user-defined threshold, which is cunningly defined as an index value with a more impressive sounding name and handy three letter abbreviation.

That should really help distinguish yourself in this hotly contested market space.

I know trans people whose hands are closer to the gender that their brains say that they are than their biological one.

However they also took hormones during puberty, so it is an open question whether this was the effect of hormones during development, or hormones after development.
So, now we need the scale to be:

1, 2, 3, 4.0, 4.2, 4.4, 4.6, 4.8, 5

Then, inflation will require it to be:

1, 2, 3, 4, 4.90, 4.92....

Are you sure "debts" aren't a technical term here that encompasses all transactions? That's been my understanding. Whenever you buy something you take the item off of the shelf and are then in debt to the store until you settle it at the cash register.

Its not a question of just building tooling. It is a question of AMD having fewer performance counters. So even organizations like Google with tons of SWEs can't do anything if there are no performance counters, or if the performance counters are not exposed.

It is and it's used everytime something like this comes up actually. But if you take it for what it is; most of the lawmakers don't fully undersand what their deciding on, so they depend on lobbyists for their info and unfortunately, they're always just interested in making money, so the lawmakers get a skewed view and some nice talking points. I'm not sure if I feel bad for them or just be confident that the next generation of life long politicians might be people like us who are aware of this problem and enact laws to protect privacy.

Sia is very reliable from the customer's perspective. Its only individual systems and storage pools that have lax uptime requirements. Thanks to some clever network-level redundancy mechanisms (10-of-30 redundancy), 95% uptime at the storage pool level translates to 99.9999% uptime from the customer's perspective. See the "Uptime Math" section in the OP for details.

Yes, and that was supposed to be protected by CSME and ACM, but because those can be circumvented, so can microcode upgrades.

Normally a microcode update would be verified as well, but since it has been hacked in the past and CSME verification can now be bypassed it would probably be a matter of time.

It used to be the case that an internal ROM with a unique on-time programmable entry that can only be read internally was safe enough, but with decapping, gliching and breaking PKI chains that is getting weaker and weaker.
Not claiming that the science is settled, but I when I entered keto over 10 years ago (TL:DR daily 10K+ 'performance' runner, neuropathy from glucose intolerance - genetic, avoid all drugs), I wanted to be sure that I could run without ingesting carbs (since everyone said you couldn't).

Read "The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Performance" and can absolutely say that after an initial horrible period that lasted for months, I was eventually able to run further and just as fast as I used to when I was carbo-loading. I can honestly say that running is more difficult now - my legs are generally sore and I don't feel like I'm 'flying along', but I've always tracked my times with Garmin, then Apple, and the stats belie how I feel.

From the book: "[Keto-adaptation] allows even a very lean (10% body fat) athlete access to more than 40,000 kcal from body fat, rather than starting a prolonged event depending primarily on ~2000 kcal of glycogen."

I think the studies you quoted would back-up the authors, but I also wanted to lend my long-term personal experience. I can't recall where I read it, but thought adaption also occurred in leg muscles where they found a massive increase in the number of mitochondria for athletes on keto.

I tested myself daily for years until I found a combination of diet and exercise that worked. My body definitely adapted and became much more efficient at burning fat - there's no performance 'wall' anymore, but I think the experience is different for everyone.
City of Austin Cancels SXSW March Events
I don't think it is correct to say that the only options are "host failures are truly independent" or "world war three".

The hosts are not ever going to be fully independent. There will be hundreds, if not thousands, host co-located in the same location -- likely of the cheapest grade, without any extras like fire alarms or halon extinguishers or redundant power feeds.
A single fire (flood, broken power station) has a chance of taking out thousands of hosts simultaneously.

And there is management system as well -- AWS has thousands of engineers working on security. Will there be one at this super-cheap farm? What are the chances there will be farms with default passwords and password-less VNC connections? And since machines are likely to be cloned, any compromise affects thousands of hosts.

... and all of those things are made worse by the fact that if you store hundreds of thousands of files, your failure probability raises significantly. If a data center burns down, at least few of your files may be unlucky enough to be lost.
Java is adding some new stuff, but its core is still rotten with NPEs everywhere, mutability by default etc.

> From their perspective they've implemented a pro-privacy feature and advertise it and their company as doing so.

If that were the specific claim they made, I wouldn't call them lying. But I was talking about Liveramp specifically, and they're making claims well beyond that -- they're claiming that they're actually defenders of privacy. That's a straight-up lie.

I keep a close eye on the adtech/martech world ("know your enemy"), and it's clear that on the whole they've managed to reframe the issue in their own minds in a way that is favorable to them (mostly by doing what Facebook is doing: considering themselves as "pro-privacy" by defending the data they collect against outside attackers and abuse rather than considering their own collection and data use).

I don't think they're lying when they do this, I think they've managed to delude themselves in the way that salespeople often do: by convincing themselves that the lie is actually true. It's not lying, after all, if you believe it.

But Liveramp has elevated this to a level that I believe is intentionally deceptive.

Seriously this is mind boggling.

> Abandoned pepboys stores don't usually have very good fiber connectivity. Backblaze and similar hosting/storage companies move enough traffic that they need to be topologically close to major IX points.

Not stores. Data centers.

It is typically cheaper to get long distance fiber links than metro fiber and midsize data centers do not consume that much power, power which is plentiful outside the major metros, especially in the old manufacturing areas.

The real reason why companies do not go there is because it is not sexy and non-sexy places do not get "ninja" employees that would be passing brain teasers on a whiteboard.

> Bulldozing empty land in Quincy and putting up a tilt-up concrete on slab dedicated purpose datacenter structure is much less costly than extensively retrofitting abandoned, 30, 40, 50 year old commercial real estate.
