Thanks for the feedback!

Our Virtual Accounts are the first step towards exactly that – we were thinking that virtual debit numbers tied to virtual accounts might make the most sense from a payment flow perspective. And that would allow you to do just what you described, provided the payment recipient takes debit vs ACH. Having virtual account/routing numbers would be a great extension of that capability too!
Or, can it (like humans?) adapt its responses to suit the style of the question? Like if you start asking it lots of antagonizing questions, will it become more or less antagonistic itself?
I can't say exactly what the reasoning was, but watching the full video, they hauled off the black reporter alone, then after a substantial delay, arrested the others all at once. Almost as if they had an "oh wait people might notice this" moment.
So people shouldn't have a blog, since people read that content instead of paid books, magazines or newspaper articles? Or post videos on YouTube, because TV and films aren't free? Or work on open source software, since that might save people the need to buy software from companies that are selling?

Truth of the matter is, an awful lot of things that were previously commercially viable simply aren't any more because people are happy giving them away for free or releasing them with ad support. Few people will buy a web browser or CMS or programming language compiler/interpeter/envrionment, because free competition has made commercial ones obsolete.

Either way, it's just life. Things that were once expensive services only available to wealthy became commoditised and affordable for pennies, and new types of business became viable in their place.

So if you're running a company selling a form service and free competition is outcompeting you, then you'll have to adapt or die like anyone else. Or find some value proposition people are willing to pay for in that area (support, customisations, lots of new features, a glossy design, etc).
Because it's not on topic. It is almost definitely crime or politics. From FAQ:

What to Submit
On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.

Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.

Consumer protection agencies and similar can potential force some "free exchange" program on them.

But here is the think: From the iXsystems blog post you can learn that not all SMT drivers so lead to errors on rebuild. Just some of the FW versions do. Other drivers might still lead to big slow downs but it's not clear if all SMT drivers slow down to a unacceptable degree. Weather it not a newly added drive is fresh/was cleaned seems to also affect this. Lastly while the drives are marketed as NAS usable they have a list of supported NAS systems. And don't give any guarantee for performance on other systems.

Given all this my guess is that after fixing faulty firmware version they will at most provide some form of we update the firmware for you service if you can show that you are using a supported NAS system. ...

And then if any consumer protection agency or similar acts in the EU that program might also be available there.

Through that just my sold guess. Thinks can be very different, e.g. not just a firmware bug.
Broken windows policing is why I hate police. My chances of calling police under any circumstance is near zero.

The thin blue line runs around the world. NSA is party to multinational intelligence sharing agreements. If they don’t delete the data to prevent discovery and disclosure in public trials, they are in violation of the contract. Any legal scholars have a rejoinder to this? How would you have approached this case to prevent outmaneuvering in these legalistic ways? It is a mockery of the rule of law that it is upheld and twisted in this way for some agreements but not in favor of the Constitution.

From linked article on Jewel v. NSA[1]:

On March 10, 2014, Judge White imposed a temporary restraining order, requiring the NSA and other parties to halt the destruction of evidence until a final resolution of the case. On June 5, 2014, the EFF filed a motion for an emergency hearing requesting that the court enforce this temporary restraining order after discovering that the government had continued the destruction of evidence. A motion filed by the government claimed that doing so would have severe consequences "including the possible suspension of the Section 702 program and potential loss of access to lawfully collected signals intelligence information on foreign intelligence targets".[2]

Maybe I'm missing something, but does this require the user to check their email and click a link every time they look to log into a site? If so, I'm wondering how this has been received by typical consumer, or if any of the overhead in terms of support tickets dealing with traditional passwords have still exists for magic links.

That's great that there is still an underground culture around this concept but my gripe is that it's been 5 years and we still haven't built anything usable. I think it's the same gripe the author has but his was that it had been 70 years and we still weren't there yet. We were on track at one point but right now we seem to be deeply lost in the weeds with no clear way out.

> I wonder what those officers were thinking, arresting a reporter on live camera.

Speaking as someone who's been to a lot of protests, ranging from "peaceful as a baby" to "as street medics we treated 1/3-1/2 of the protestors"... the same thing cops are always thinking. As an institution, they don't like the press, oversight, or public scrutiny of their actions. They react the same way to people with press credentials for less prominent organizations, and to regular humans with phone cameras who have just as much a right to record video, the same way all the time.

They made clear when they introduced this that the “view tweet anyways” approach applies only when the public interest for an account of a public official outweighs the significant harm they consider to be done by allowing what you describe for all users in general. I don’t expect they intend to change their mind on that.
The only real low point in the documentation I've found was around MIT Kerberos.

Oh? I thought it was Qt. I don't want to seem like I'm complaining for nothing as it's definitely much better than, say, Slack client, but I still feel like the Windows client is a bit "out of place". Like the task bar context menu looks different from all the other menus for other apps in there, with rounded corners etc.
Ah, right. I was confusing Vitamin K with beta-carotine.
Maybe there are better off now, but for a long time people lived under segregation and were discriminated against, the majority population had no say in any of the politics for a long time. Erasure of culture and language of the natives. Import of opium, an addictive drug, with war being fought over being able to keep selling it. Colonialism has a giant impact on a people.

If it was because the reporters here were 'too close' then that does kind of fit the narrative the cops gave, except they should have told them where they should go instead of arresting them of course.

Still, does not make it racism. Plenty of cops make bad decisions, it doesn't make them all racist.

I mean yes, but OP's comment is especially notable with Vit D because it's deficiency is very common and often a marker for other common age related diseases.

It is highly likely that Vitamin D isn't saving these people's lives, it's that the folks without vitamin D are older and/or have disease.

> However, a country that interact with other countries, their independence is recognized by both parties.

Taiwan's independence is de facto recognized by the US and many (most?) other major powers, it's just not recognized de jure because of the PRC's diplomatic policy. For instance, the US basically has an embassy in Taiwan (they just don't call it one), which is staffed by State Department diplomats (who take a leave of absence to work there so they're not technically diplomats when there). It walks like a duck, it talks like a duck, but many have agreed to pretend it's not a duck for reasons.

This stuff isn't as black and white as you seem to think it is.
That's why I have a dejavu.
Yes but sometimes I want a choice. For example, I use the Dark Reader extension with a pure #000 background. Many dark modes use some grey or other non-black hue, which can be quite annoying, so I usually turn them to light mode and then Dark Reader can properly convert the light theme into my preferred black theme.
Since I was a child I’ve been a walking respiratory illness machine. Bronchitis, sinusitis, flu, pneumonia, common cold, etc.

During “flu” season I was usually sick for the entire season with a rotating assortment of viral respiratory issues, this lasted until about 7 years ago.

8 years ago in September I started taking 10,000 IU of vitamin D3 and 180mg of K2 daily.

I haven’t had a deputies illness since. My children were getting sick at their normal clip, my wife the same, but not me. I went from being sick all the time to not getting sick ever. I made one change in my life, adding the D3 and K2.

After 2 years of not getting sick my wife and children started supplementing with D3 and K2, everyone stopped getting sick. My son went off to college and stopped taking the D3 and K2 and during the winter semester he got sick twice, he had me sent him the D3 and K2, he hasn’t been sick since.

It’s a small sample size, but even at 10,000 IU daily D3 is not dangerous or expensive, the only caveat seems to be that you need to supplement with K2 or you can cause gardening if the arteries due to calcification.

My doctor thinks it’s a lot of nonsense, but then again he wants every patient on blood pressure and cholesterol medication “just in case”.
It might have been a weird iceberg, or a lightsail fragment, or just a boring rock or a gift of fire from the gods. We'll never know because we didn't get our shit together and went out to look. There's just so much you can derive from a light curve and a few orbital elements.
Just so everyone's clear about this, Handshake is a system backed by a cryptocurrency, "HNS", that is actively traded despite being useful only to speculators. Its backers believe that they'll take over control of the Internet and be rewarded financially for it through their currency.

Awesome work guys! Judging by such an active and enthusiastic community, I could see this having a very sizable market share of knowledge bases like roam / bear / notion in the future.

I don't think "at will" employees are even guaranteed severance pay every where.
There is nothing to discuss about the George Floyd story. The cops seriously fucked up. I have yet to see anyone dispute that. I haven't even seen a union remark defending the cop. This is not the place to check out the latest news stories. You want the latest news stories, go to Google, Yahoo, CNN, or where ever.

As for the Twitter/Trump feud, there is still debate on whether Twitter has grown into something which is a public space. While the Supreme Court has not declared social media the modern public square, they have referred to it as the modern public square in a ruling. It is worth to debate whether and what types of rules should be applied to the dominate social media sites. They certainly are moving away from just hosting for user content.
Also don’t forget that Hamas has many official twitter accounts in various languages.
Looks cool.
This combined with the release of the new RasPi will be a great era for lightweight computing on small devices.
A force majeure contract absolves them of delivering their service. It doesn't mean they get to change their service however they see fit and keep all the money.

People up front for an in person semester. If they really want to go the force majeure route, they should return the money up front and renegotiate the rest of the semester.
How about this for neutrality: When Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders end a post with "the shooting starts", they can get flagged for glorifying violence as well.
Thank you for your insights.

> But then there is a third thing which is that in some countries (and I am not sure here about USA) the president has the right to send a message using any media channel he sees fit, and the media channel cannot refuse. Informing and communicating with the public is one of president's duties and refusing to send his message infringes upon it. If USA has such a law and if Twitter could be interpreted as a media platform then it could be against the law for Twitter to do what it is currently doing. Unlikely thou, as twitter has a team of lawers and likely they were consulted beforehand.

I looked into what powers the President of the US has in regards to sending a message and from what I found there are only specific rules (not sure if they are laws) for TV and radio to broadcast Presidential messages unaltered when asked.

Even if one was to interpret those rules to include the internet as well surely that would fall onto ISPs in that they must give unrestricted access to government services such as whitehose.gov rather than giving the President unlimited power of literally any US-based website?

I am sure if Twitter bans Trump's account he would push forward that he has unlimited power to communicate via any website he pleases although I have no idea how that would play out in the courts. It certainly goes against the small government position the Republican party talk about for businesses.

> Companies are ran by people and those people take political sides. Twitter is on the democratic party side, and the election season is coming. I predict we will se a bigger coordinated effort spanning Google, Youtube, and Twitter, and some other big corporations as we get closer to USA president election date.

I also think this. Seems Facebook has picked their side with Trump.

Me thinks Twitter has been planning for this outcome for a while now which is why they have held off on banning his account. I wouldn't be surprised if they take the step to ban him sometime in the not too distant future.
Quite a lot of innuendo in there.
The person I responded to suggested that Britain only welcomed immigrants to help it because it was "on its back economically". I suppose that all would have been fine if, at worst, Britain was ranked exactly the same today as it was then but because it's actually ranked slightly lower (as I'd expected) the inference now is that I'm anti-immigration. Squeeze a bit more from the tube and you can openly brand me a racist and then you win. Anticipating that I might not oblige, you added your last sentence as insurance to cover that eventuality.
Legality aside, culturally Google has a reputation of never having laid off employees. Even when a team gets shuttered the engineers are given months to find a new role on another team.

I don't know what this "we" is to which you refer, as Google's Q1 2020 revenue outpaced Wall Street estimates by 3-4%, and shares have increased 6% since their last earnings call, outperforming the S&P 500.

I agree with your point that Google, nor any company, is obliged to take on workers if that's their business decision, but let's not pretend that Google is getting hit _that_ hard by the recession.
