Are the numbers really that different? This site only shows incidents up through Saturday. The more recent coverage in the github thing yesterday just isn't there yet. But I'm happy you think this one is trustworthy and hope you stick around to watch them add incidents.
That’s a “more workable” solution.

Still, again, as a power user... native applications are hard to beat.
If it helps, the name for this style is "macro" photography. It should be "micro", but somebody got it wrong a hundred years ago and we're all stuck with it now. That's what to be looking for in info, tutorials, lenses and other gear, etc.

I mainly do macro work these days myself, e.g. https://aaron-m.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/DSC_9393.jpg - I'm happy to talk about what it was like getting started, if you think it might be useful. Definitely some surprises, even coming at it from a place of good familiarity with interchangeable-lens photography in general.

Hah! My dad does the same thing with his mustache.

People keep bothering him about his unusually large mustache, so he always tells people it is to cover a cleft lip.

This is awesome. However it’s still pretty vague. Can there be any meaningful action from this ?

Is there a way for a civilian to get access to the officer’s body camera recording and identify which cops are the trigger happy ones.

Basically a more targeted list that says “These officers violated the first amendment constitutional rights of citizens to peacefully assemble and petition the government for a redress of grievances, this is the proof, please file charges”.

We are protesting because the police are unaccountable for their actions. How do we move to a place where we can hold them accountable and there is a quick as fair process for justice to be served.
To be fair I have a DSLR that quite clearly takes much, much better photos than my iPhone Xs Max takes (despite what Apple's marketing would have you believe), but in reality I just don't bother with the DSLR anymore, because whilst the iPhone clearly isn't as good, it's still easily good enough, and it's a hell of a lot more portable.

I imagine many others feel the same way.

In the examples, form labels are used badly in a few places. The textarea label lacks its for attribute, and the radio buttons are done quite wrong: for best results, the entire group should be wrapped in a <fieldset>, with the prompt text (“Number:”) being a <legend>, and then each radio button’s text should be a <label>.

Everything is easier for people now than it was in 1935.
It's not about shifting blame, it's about understanding that complaining about looting is missing the forest for the trees.

Protests and looting are a symptom of much deeper ills.

> you would be hard pressed to find a law that oppresses anyone by race. Racist laws? No. Classicist laws? Yes.

With all due respect, this position exposes a lack of understanding of US history, and I'm not just talking about slavery or the civil rights act.

Some things to Google if you want to open that Pandora's jar:

- Redlining

- Poll taxes

- Nixon starting "War on Drugs" to target black communities

- Federal exclusion of black families from New Deal homebuying programs

Many of the laws and policies that have targeted black people specifically are also classist through a certain lens, but when you look closer it's usually targeting poor people because poor Americans are disproportionately black.
They're really well priced, in terms of phones IMO yeah. In terms of broadcast hardware I assume that's the case too.
It doesn't take the vertical movement of the car into account directly, but that cosine term in the force does mean that having to raise the car (or lower the car) saps it of effective torque.

Also, the wheel spoke lengths are normalized, so the wheel can't grow or shrink overall.

I understand those concerns.

But there has been real, high quality progress on handling data in ways that are mathematically designed to conserve privacy and limit surveillance to a specific, socially constructive purpose.

The Google-Apple method is one of those. However, there is a lot of good work being done that is more advanced than that, which alas is not available right now but will be useful in future.

It parallels the high quality progress we have seen in areas like encryption, and in cryptocurrencies.

I think it's completely right to have doubts. E.g. in another of my commments I wrote that I don't trust the UK government's current approach.

But we are, slowly, also building tools to make fascism more difficult as well. If we can persuade the powers that be to use them, and verify that they are.

It may be that if we don't make "good" contact-tracing tools available, someone will make worse contact-tracing tools and force people to use them, on grounds of necessity. It looks like that's already happening, with some countries adopting a central database approach, some countries making it the law to use them (e.g. India), and other countries using newer privacy-oriented contact-tracing approaches.

Agreed, a couple of billion will give you a nice EV design but a car is a hugely more complex and expensive product to manufacture at scale at a competitive price than a fan or cleaner.
generally modern lenses peak sharpness slightly stopped down. and then they are sharp - and yeah, you can't fake sharpness either (and even if not printing, the camera nearly always produces good enough output for a 4k wallpaper - a phone? maybe.)

I too don’t like to call to order things...which I don’t understand because if I went in person I’d have no problem voice ordering.

I wonder if ordering by video call would make it feel more like in person ordering?
I am not a quantum physicist by far, but my understanding is that solving the Schrodinger equation for anything more complex than hydrogen is more or less impossible.

So instead we go the other way: use "close enough" experimental data and perturbation theory to approximate the results for more complex systems.
Does anyone know what's up with the fingerprint readers? They always seem to need reverse engineering. And once some model is well established, they suddenly switch to a new one...

It's happened so many times it just can't be accidental. There are no secrets in the glorified grayscale scanner - why are the drivers never opensourced?
I've seen many founders slowly grind out their spirit in a bad market. So the first thing you need to clarify is:

- do your customers know that they have a problem

- is the problem painful enough that people are happy to pay for a solution

- do your customers have money?

I've been running a SaaS for professional freelance photographers for 10+ years now. Customers going bankrupt really drives up my churn rate. It's a frustrating market. I keep the company around because it's profitable, but I would never want to invest additional work in that product.

I also once built a sound plugin to add 3D audio support to existing movie production software. Pretty much no chargebacks and no returns at a much higher price. Here, marketing was easy because a good prospect would buy 20 licenses in bulk for the entire studio. We got featured on magazines, had interviews with famous actors, musicians, and directors. In short, everyone was feeling great about working on it.

I've also released some games that gained no traction even when I made them completely free with no ads. That was pretty frustrating.

What I'm saying is choosing the right market can make the difference between you feeling great and making easy progress, and wasting lots of effort only to feel frustrated later on. Make sure you choose a market that makes you happy.

There is a reason why nobody is making X optimized for broke cynics.

Reply to sibling's reply to me. Why do you think she was subjected to that? I would guess it's because of the high levels of illegal immigration into European countries from Africa and many other places, including the trafficking of women for prostitution. It sucks for your gf that she perhaps looked to these policemen like she maybe fitted the demographic somehow but what are the police supposed to do?
Nope, same here. You can turn on a rule-of-thirds grid in camera settings, and I find it helps - not so much for composition, the rule's fine but overrated, but just in providing a set of rulers to align against.

I'm not sure laziness is the main factor here though. I suppose it depends where you are ordering from, but I enjoy picking up from restaurants still largely because I enjoy the food and would not be able to recreate it. In some cases it introduces me to new flavor combos that I wouldn't have tried otherwise and maybe will eventually make its way into my cooking. Hell, I even just occasionally crave McDonalds. If I were feeling lazy I would have Soylent or throw together a sandwich with whatever is in the house, it feels like more effort to place the McD order than do that.

Food is a large source of enjoyment for a lot of people, even removing the social benefits of in-person restaurants, I don't think it is a waste. Although certainly many restaurant owners would benefit from some business training.

I also think you'll find you could say the same thing about a lot of life chores- people pay other people to sew? People pay other people to mow their lawn? People pay other people to trim their hair? And so on. A lot of these things could be done sufficiently yourself, but 1) they will generally be done better by the professional and 2) as these things pile up the total time spent will become a legitimate burden.

I found it interesting to read about the daily schedules of housewives back in the 50s or so, some of their tasks could be automated now or would be considered unnecessary, but even adjusting to be a bit more modern it sounded like a difficult full time job. And there are increasingly less people "employed" in this sector. So I don't know why I see so many objections to outsourcing something like cooking (not even all the time).

It is somewhat sad that -apparently- nowadays it is enough to just think of some (magic) functionality and then you can sue a company if the product does not fulfill this fantasy (even if it clearly says so on every incognito tab you open)

But isn't it even more depressing that every tech news outlet has to jump on that craziness and amplify it thereby?
Why do wee need to read about this... as if it would be something to consider even vaguely truthful?
A bit off topic, but as somebody that doesn't know anything about photography, when I look at pictures taken by dedicated hobbyists and (semi-)professionals vs. normals, the main difference for me is I think almost never from the technical aspects of their cameras but the deliberateness the photos have been taken or selected.

As In "oh, I like this tree, lets snapshot it to put on social media" vs. really thinking about how to capture this moment on a 2D surface. Motif, framing, lights and shadow, flow of lines, fore-, middle-, and background, etc. (As I said, I don't know about photography but those seem to be things you want to care about).

I reckon, the difference of what camera you use is much more about the choices they allow you to make than some superiority in technical specs. The latter is to squeeze out the last few percent or as related to production pipeline e.g. printing on billboards.

I think especially we people in tech, who can often more easily afford it, tend to jump to getting more sophisticated, expensive gear, be that photography, music, painting, etc. expecting better results, forgetting that it's all pretty worthless, if you don't get the fundamental artistry and techniques right first.

The only way to be successful with EVs is to have substantial scale and that scale needs 10’s of billions of dollars, which means public markets or huge private rounds which also means dilution. Many things that are probably unpalatable to Mr.Dyson.

I find myself learning a lot more about e.g. problems in software engineering "in the large" than I otherwise would because HN is such a nice experience overall. But I'm keen to learn more about e.g. logistics from the same kind of practical atmosphere where links are timely, knowledgeable and relevant, and commenters are intelligent and often experienced.

What do e.g. air cargo in passenger planes people congregate? Or warehouse people?
In addition, that up and down motion is annoying to passengers, and a waste of energy. The suspension has dampers, and the tires have hysteresis (it takes more energy to squish a tire down than you get from letting it spring back up), so more energy is put into the "up" parts of the cycle than is recovered from the "down" parts.
I have this problem with European and World Cup soccer. I just follow them enough to be able to briefly feign interest.
I agree that the comment is disingenuous, however, I believe the problem for Dyson was that the car he wanted to make was just too expensive. It's not necessarily the case that all electric vehicles are too expensive (and clearly when you look at the EVs in SE Asia, there are some pretty cheap cars). I'd be surprised if he didn't already anticipate the upfront costs. I think it's more that having made the prototype, he realised he couldn't make a product that will disrupt the market at a reasonable price and therefore threw in the towel.
The GDPR still applies and will continue to by default, as far as I know. After the transition period the UK would have the choice to repeal or change it but I'm not aware of any push to do so.
I like all kinds of cameras. One major nit-pick I have of cell phone cameras is that I have to interact with a touch screen to take a picture.

A separate dedicated "function" button that could be optionally set to take pictures without unlocking the phone itself or fiddling with a touch screen would be amazing.
I had a X100F and sold it b/c I just never managed to carry it with me.

I now have an iPhone 11 Pro but unless I uses portrait mode the photos just don't come close. And when I do use portrait mode it feels like augmented reality, not real life.

This is what I'm after: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkEq2u_E1VU

So I'm considering an X100V but I am not sure if I can develop the diligence to carry the thing all the time. Especially with family, which is of course when I want it most.
Most of the time I post photos I took on an SLR I get comments about how amazing the photos are.

Cell phone photos no longer suck horribly, sure.

I'd agree with this. I have a Fuji X100F camera which produces lovely photos that look noticably distinct from my Pixel phone camera.

However, even on innovative features that it does have - like WiFi or face recognition, it implements so poorly that I kind of wish they hadn't bothered.

Fujifilm simply don't have the quality of software engineers that Apple and Google have access to. Nor do they place the same importance on software. The actual physical feel of this camera is sublime, it's a shame they don't think the software is worthy of the same attention to detail.
I do not know about your specific machine, but Lenovo is pretty good about supporting fwupd, so its worth a try. Install fwupd for your distro and run `fwupdmgr get-devices` to see what on your machine is supported.

Only hydrogen has an analytic solution. Even helium requires approximations because the electrons interact. Approximation requires an understanding of the structure of the wavefunction which gets increasingly complex as we add more particles to the system that interact and entangle with one another like electrons in an atom do. Even further, that's for single atoms that aren't interacting strongly with their environment. Here we're talking about an ensemble of nitrogen atoms interacting with each other in a somewhat extreme environment.

I think that it's not easier to be accepted because you're an oddball. I think it's easier to accept yourself as an oddball. People all over the Internet are oddballs to the greatest degree, and they aren't outcasts- they're founders, CEO's and engineers. I am personally a Nobody, which I'm completely fine with, but I let my geek flag fly. I am unapologetic about any of the things I'm into, whether it be science, "maker" scene type stuff, ham radio stuff, or even religion. I am who I am. I've accepted it, and I expect others to accept it if they want to. I'm really okay with people thinking I'm a weirdo. I kind of am in a lot of ways, but I don't care. Back then, you had to care. And in some cases, you still do.
Wow - great insight......
If lots of people are pressured to deanonymize, which they are in this case (it's your civic duty!), that's not a very strong system because a lot can be inferred from "gaps" between people that you are linked to in other contexts.

Just like I can avoid using Facebook but they can still, in principle, keep a shadow profile with lots of details about my life, inferred by putting together knowledge from other people. Just like when I joined LinkedIn it already knew who I knew, without me entering anything except my name and email address (that was spooky, I didn't give it contacts or anything). Just like Google knows your personal interests, even if you delete all cookies at the end of every browsing session.
You can turn off focus priority on shutter release if you want, fyi. Then the shutter releases exactly when you tell it to, every single time.

I did that when I found I was missing jump shots because the AF system got confused and waited to refocus, giving me a tack-sharp shot of a place where a bird had just been. Now, when I miss a jump shot, at least it's my fault.
> Democrats removed super majority requirement for Supreme Court nominations.... People take less notice of transgressions when their party is in power.

> People take less notice of transgressions when their party is in power....

I used to fault the Democrats for that (and used to consider myself more of a conservative), but on reflection I think the Republican's obdurate obstructionism is the more important fact. That's clear now that the Republican's priority now seems to be to ram through nominees when they have the power to do so (as shown by their last session, nominations over caronavirus response), and they've done such a shit job at checks and balances when it's needed now more than ever.
I don't think it does a whole lot with respect to the other Android phones for pricing. I ended up getting a Huawei P20 Pro last year. It was the best value I could get for the price, by a long shot.

Koodo was offering it for $0 additional dollars on their "medium tab" plan ($15/mo for 24 mos). The other options were pretty bad.

I don't really have a lot of brand loyalty when it comes to phones, as I don't use a ton of apps, and the ones I use the most are the browser, email and some messaging apps. I also don't really use the camera as much as most other people. I just want something cheap and fast that can last 3 years or more.
Have experienced similar things as a Sikh all over the world when I still had an uncut beard.

I remind myself that it is nothing but a survival instinct and even I was doing this in one way or another.
From their website:

"Journalists who face physical violence, either as the result of a targeted attack by a public or private individual or in the course of their work. If a journalist is hit by rubber bullets or bean bag rounds, it will be counted in this category.

Damage to equipment is counted in a separate "Equipment Damage" category, but may be also listed in this Physical Attack category if the damage occurs with an attack.

Journalists affected by tear gas, pepper spray, or other mass riot control agents will be counted if the individual suffers serious injury or appears to have been specifically targeted. Incidents that fall outside these parameters and in which multiple journalists were affected by riot control agents may be counted in the “Other” category."
