Cool stuff. Did you test the isolation? Say, by powering it from 5VDC that's riding on 120VAC or something.
> Anything needing special equipment or terrain, for example. If you want to do a climbing workout you're going out of luck without a rockface in your back garden or your own climbing wall, aren't you.

In theory you’d be right but I the reason I asked is because there’s usually workouts you can still do at home to keep at least some of those muscles in shape even if you can’t do your usual training routines without using any specialist equipment. Granted sometimes you have to get a little creative but it’s certainly doable for most gym exercises that immediately sprint to mind.

Take the rock climbing example: I used to train at home doing pull ups on door frames on the weeks I couldn’t make it to an indoor climbing wall (though that was quite a few years ago now).

> This seems like the opposite of what you'd want to do - why are you doing this?

I agree and it’s not through choice I do it. The problem is everyone else agrees too and thus it has become impossible to book delivery slots due to the volume of demand.
Small static sites like this one sound like a good use case: https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmZCGRVJNjVJtEqtS2HwhELszNBSU2XNwuBkFEQ...
I cut my teeth on Red Hat (before Fedora was a thing), used Gentoo for a few years when I cutely believed that waiting hours for compiles to finish was fun and useful, but for the last 8-10 years I've been on Debian.

It's not perfect, but it gets the job done. For my laptop I usually run testing, and then stick with stable for 6 months or so after it's released, before switching back to testing. For me, it's a good balance between stability and having recent versions of applications.
I opened it in Adobe Acrobat Pro and the regular text selection tool had the same obfuscated result. However, when I used the text edit tool, I was able to select the text and copy/paste it elsewhere and the text remained intact. I'm on the fence about whether the obfuscation is intentional, or if the legal software that was used to format and generate the line numbers is just bad at encoding PDFs.

Edit: I looked at the metadata for the two files and the borked one was generated with PDFium, the same open source PDF library that google and many others use. The normal one was created with Acrobat Distiller and signed by iText and mentions a license to the Administrative Office of the United States Courts. The metadata could have been altered, but a first glance suggests the working one is the original.

As a technical person you are thinking about the problem. That's why I love being technical.

In a power structure it is more complicated. "Why can't a rocket be reused?" Well, Elon Musk is a technical person with power so not only can it happen, everyone will get behind it.

On the other hand, why should my car HAVE to be internet connected if I don't want it? (or have a proper dashboard in front of me instead of the side?)
> All you need to do is to pick more carefully (invest more resources, etc.).

This needs fleshing out. One goal is to give equal preference to equally deserving candidates, say candidates with individual score x, regardless of their group membership. It's not clear that you can pick based solely on score x and still achieve that goal, no matter how carefully you pick. If you're picking on x and group membership, you're harming one group of people with score x (assuming a fixed headcount, where advantaging one person means disadvantaging another).
It’s the actual lawsuit though. Much more substantive.
So how does a few weeks in banking compare to several decades in physics, battery tech, software development, rocket engineering? Why are a couple of weeks decades ago so important to you?

The legal reasoning seems like interesting discussion, would've been nice if he had the legal filing ready and linked at the time he made his first tweet threat.
Reading the comments that was my first theory on how to beat the variable bets being noticed thing, just have some low level players playing normally surveying the deck and the big better only just shows up at the right time, his bets are all high so they don't seem strange.

Of course that also is easily defeated... now.

Ah. (Duh!)
Looks like there are no dependencies, so it should start pretty fast.

And sure enough, it's both easy and reasonably fast to run:

$ time seq 1 10000 | awk '{a+=$0}END{print a}'
50005000
seq 1 10000 0.00s user 0.00s system 91% cpu 0.002 total
awk '{a+=$0}END{print a}' 0.01s user 0.00s system 95% cpu 0.008 total
$ time seq 1 10000 | python3 pyp.py 'sum(map(int, lines))'
50005000
seq 1 10000 0.00s user 0.00s system 80% cpu 0.002 total
python3 pyp.py 'sum(map(int, lines))' 0.06s user 0.01s system 99% cpu 0.070 total

I wouldn't run it in a loop, but it's definitely a contender even in high-ish performance situations.
Do you have a source where he specifically praised the CCP? This is surprising to hear.
It guess it would require a different syntax, otherwise it may not be clear how it was desugared (runtime vs. compile).

Then again, we already have for loops, range for loops, the ranges library, the std algorithms, the parallel algorithms... I don't think people would welcome yet another way of writing things, but who knows...
It is interesting how powerful the meme is which prevents discussion of psychology and psychiatry amongst the laity. Multiple threads started and died on the theme of being a layperson and not an expert, despite the fact that any science should be examinable on its premises, observations, models, and theories.

Meanwhile, the Dodo Bird theory [0] has yet to be disproven, and there are good reasons to suspect that humans are merely smart mammals, rather than special animals who have no peers throughout the rest of the kingdom, which means that psychology and psychiatry are only the tip of a much bigger comparative discipline which handles humanity as a special case rather than as the main system of study.

My really simple preference for a stupidly minor improvement would just be PDF without pagination. Like, we don't have page breaks on web pages, so why not have print optimized and scroll optimized renderings of the paper?
Changed to that from https://onezero.medium.com/p/94aee43db04f. Thanks!
Yeah, IANAL, but this document doesn't sound to have been written by someone punching arguments, it sounds more like a whiny teenager.

On top of page 2 it somehow claims a car factory is permitted to operate because this FAQ says so:

>My business installs distributed solar, storage, and/or electric vehicle charging systems – can it continue to operate?

> Yes, this is permissible construction activity and must comply with the Construction Project Safety Protocols in Appendix B of the Order. Businesses may also operate to manufacture distributed energy resource components, like solar panels.

I guess they're going to go to court over the definition of "distributed energy resource components". Tesla cars are consumers (also storers) of (electrical) energy resources, but a gas-powered car does the same for energy stored in gasoline. If they let this in, then I could argue that my battery-powered phone is also an "energy resource component"...
Same here!!
> ventilation is probably good

I'm not clear on what ventilation being "probably good" means in the context of reducing SARS-Cov-2 exposure to a safe level. What if the air is recirculated and the filters don't capture enough of the virus?
Yes, and the hope is that it would support a better thread.
For what it's worth, Fremont, the city where Tesla is located, appears more sympathetic to the company

> The primary problem with electronic voting is no possible enforcement of no coercive force rule, not tallying security.

How is this not "blessed by maths" as not in the previous problem?

Someone somewhere has to bless something, be it a valid vote or a valid digital signature. If there is a "Pope" for one, there should be a "Pope" for the other. Medical, government, religious ... someone somewhere must have a magic "I Bless This" magic wand and all henceforth below shall must be valid.

Why is the branch of "digital signature" considered "good" in this respect but "voting" not? "Medical" not"?

I viciously hate to say the term, yet ... this seems so "tri-cameral" ... and in terms of schizophrenia of illogic.
What does one thing have to do with the other?

The public health officials who, believe it or not know more about this than Elon Musk,said they want specific metrics met before opening. Period.

So Elon did what he does and is bullying them. He called the public health official in charge, a pediatrician at Oakland's Childrens Hospital "ignorant" and "unelected". His horrible fanbase is loving it,and spamming the Alameda County offices with complaints. Why doesn't he say that about the officials in China? He'd be out on his ass, that's why.

> other writers would "love it", then want to change everything,

That’s what writers do. Like you, they have many ingrained habits and preferences, as well as an active imagination. In my experience the best feedback comes from relatively uninformed readers - they’re not shy to make criticism others might find silly and will tell you if they don’t understand something.

And when they understand your writing, you’ll know most people will.

Why do you believe him? Look at his history.
Did they at one point offer unlimited, or was it always just a really large amount (which in today's landscape isn't that large anymore).
I've written real-time trading systems trading on IB. Their client library is a real pile of shit, so it's not surprising to hear that their internal systems are too. Reassuring to hear that they're going to eat the US$100M loss themselves instead of letting their customers have it. (Not that they were going to get US$9M out of this Shah guy anyway.) They never did us any wrong when we were their customers.

Does this pose a risk of IB going insolvent? If they do, is there a risk of their customers being just another creditor of a bankrupt corporation, with respect to the stocks and futures that IB holds on behalf of those customers? Or are those instruments held in bailment, or actually by some other company, rather than as IB assets?
Oh shit I just realized this is probably a contributing factor to a phenomenon I noticed recently watching smaller dota tournaments: twitch chat was >50% (sometimes 90%) composed of sports bettors discussing lines and predictions instead of the games, which I'd never seen before.

Also could be that I'm just watching more small tournaments than I usually would though
Jiu-jitsu classes need a gym. It's hard to replace those workouts. Idk if it would even be safe for me to run for 2-3 hours I'd need to spend time working up to that and not ruin my legs or knees. That's a whole 2-3 hour work out few times a week. Plus board sports is my other workout. Ski resorts shut down and cities are restricting travel make it hard to drive for surf.

I'm doing what I can but working out intentionally like that sucks when it used to just be fun. Heh

> Not a psychiatrist, but I'm pretty skeptical of the approach of trying to sort things according to a few dimensions. ... I don't see why it should be likely to cleave reality at its joints.

One thing to understand about this is that they're not making up these dimensions from thin air. The dimensions are found in a data-driven manner using one of several techniques, most of which fall under the umbrella of factor analysis[1]. If you're familiar with principal component analysis or singular value decomposition, it's a pretty similar idea: you find the dimensions that explain as much variance as possible.

Then, once you have the dimensions, you try to make sense of them in some way. You may do something called factor rotation, which will change what these dimensions are, but you always have the same information among those five factors. Next, you have to give the factors arbitrary names. The names are usually given for the purpose of making it easy to discuss the factors. (This is the same way that the "Big 5" personality scale [2] was developed.)

For instance, if you had a factor which included the survey questions "Do you have trouble sleeping at night?" "Does it take you a long time to fall asleep?" and "Do you wake up not feeling refreshed?", you might name this an "insomnia" dimension. Really, it's just making it easier to discuss the math and data (though the names do end up having a big impact on how people think about the factors).

You can do this with survey data, brain imaging data, genetic data, etc. There are many different ways to find these. That means you can look at how they line up with each other. There are many theories and structures, but a popular one is about the "p factor" mentioned in the article which boils it down to a single dimension. I haven't read the literature for a few years, though, so I can't comment on current thinking about factor structures beyond what the article discusses.

But in the end, the idea is trying to find statistics which are useful and meaningful, either in the clinic or else for guiding future basic research. So when they say "how many dimensions are there?", what they really mean is "how many dimensions can we find that are useful?". It's not a perfect solution, but it is a good start.

Washing your hands and covering your mouth while you cough is obvious too; that doesn't mean the messaging is unnecessary.
He does seem a little petulant. As soon as things don't go his way he stamps his little feet in anger.

But I guess that's part of why he's so successful, he just blasts through any kind of roadblock. Straight to the nuclear option.

If he really believes Corvig-19 is nothing then his actions make sense. But he's a smart guy, and he must understand it's dangerous... maybe he just doesn't care if people die? Or maybe Tesla succeeding and his cars end up saving more lives than a factory shutting down for a few weeks would?

It's an ugly side to him, that's for sure.

[edit] My neighbour works in ICU and we have few cases here. He has now caught Corvid-19 and is really ill. My neighbour is late 40's and is training for an iron man, so he's pretty darn fit. This is a dangerous bug, that's for sure.
Yeah sucks though to have it disrupted. My yoga is getting pretty good though
Why is it surprising? Google it, it's been going on for years. Do you think the CCP just builds factories for or loans money to anyone?

In most cases probably not, or if so mild. It depends on the hit, and it depends on the person. It's worth noting the second order effects of mTBI (such as sleep disturbance) can in some cases kick off neurodegenerative processes.[0]

If it's acute (TBI), then almost certainly yes.[1] It's no longer considered a concussion at that point however.

There are plenty of APIs and cloud-type products listed in the site I referenced. I don't know what the story with their SLAs or lack thereof was, but it's not like Reader was a one-off thing. (IIRC, there have been some seeming SLA-violation-esque deprecations of Maps APIs...) Google clearly has a culture that is OK with killing off services when it's convenient. Like I said, I don't know if/how this applies or will apply to GCP, but they have enough of a track record that it's perfectly reasonable to be wary.
Internationally, the local card details often don't match US "debit cards" enough to actually be called by that term; I've taken the habit of translating to "bank card". I've had non-US bank cards with no credit with security & user terms better than US credit cards.
how is car manufacturing 'critical infrastructure'?

I understand how difficult it is to build an online game, especially real-time MMOs with seamless maps.

> The difficulty is balancing how much of the game runs on the client

However, it's important to have the mentality to build on the server by default. And try other optimization before give up to the client.

The reason that games are fighting this cheating surge is mostly due to the mindset is more "security bolt-on" in the game industry, instead of "security built-in" which you could see more in Web development.
I live in Ontario where ~250 people get diagnosed with malignant tumors on an average day vs. 500 people getting diagnosed with COVID at the peak of the pandemic (now ~350).

Months after the lockdown started and the surge was successfully averted, we're still not doing cancer surgeries and diagnostics. I don't understand how this level of fear and conservatism is saving more people than it's hurting. COVID is nowhere near as dangerous as a malignant tumor.

There is a middle ground of appropriate fear that we've blown past.
Somebody using the leverage exchanges (>100x margin exchanges) are liquidating the leveraged longs over the weekend after a several week long run up where people built large long positions. After a 10k close on Friday expect it to gap up to 10k Sunday night forming a reverse BART and making the players behind this move much wealthier.
Seems to me like they do have a plan and experience that whatever measures they will take work based on the fact that they have been operating the Tesla China factory safely for months now. He has never said "don't take precautions" and assuming he means that is probably a mistake.

> Have cultural factors not been ruled out?

How could they be? That is an intractable problem. Cultural factors permeate our existence from birth. You'd literally have to catalogue every single thing influencing an individual's life from birth to the time they enter the workforce.

I have two daughters and I've seen just how powerful subconscious messages from media influence the way they think. My oldest daughter is only four and she is absolutely adamant that girls can _only_ marry boys. That's clearly because the Netflix shows and Disney movies she watches all have a "girl marries boy" narrative. Think about that: my daughter is only four, I've never talked to her about marriage, and she is already firm in her belief that same sex marriage is not OK.

You are talking about funding and affirmative action, but have you considered gendered advertising towards toddlers? Have you considered gendered concepts in TV shows and movies? How about in toys? Do you know how elementary school teachers, not to mention parents, are subtly encouraging and discouraging boys and girls by their words and actions? Children absorb these things and they are solidified into semi-permanent activation pathways in their developing brains.

There are a million factors here that we will never grasp. Affirmative action is useless if people's minds are already fully constructed by the time those programs take effect.
> Literally none of this is relevant to what the poster proposed. Architects don't try and claim that the Colosseum is part of canon. It's not part of canon.

I don’t speak for the GP comment, but FWIW I think you are misunderstanding the original comment and mine. The Colosseum absolutely is part of the architectural canon.
Nobody knows anything for certain. We do not even have good data on mask effectiveness. The basis of all the restrictions is already a gut feeling/whim of the governors, not any concrete scientific data about what works and what doesn’t. Asking whether air conditioning system is good enough doesn’t make sense if we don’t even know what’s good enough. Nobody is doing any studies in that direction anyway, so we’ll never know.

I don’t know if lockdowns and restrictions make any practical difference or not, but people affected are definitely justified in complaining about large degree of arbitrariness in all of it. For example, NYC is still running subway and never stopped through all of it. Sure, people are relying on it to get places in New York, but so is everyone else in this country relying on their job to make a living, and yet many of their jobs were banned just like that.

The issue is the other way around.

The companies hold the gates to millions and millions of potential buyers. Indies want to sell in all of them and there is no other way for them to do so.

In addition, consider that most indies use Unity/UE, which already support the consoles, so vendors couldn't compete on ease of development even if they wanted.

If Godot was overwhelmingly used by indies, then yes, you could be right.
