The issues we are dealing with now have been brewing for years and can't be solved over night. The way for the tech community to help is to get involved. You can't change things without understanding how we got here and what the issues are. A five minute read of the news will not get you informed. One of the aspects of being a techie is that if we don't understand something we take the time to get informed, learn and understand.

Also, support diversity. Look around, how diverse are your colleagues? Do they reflect the rest of society? Diversity starts early. Everyone of your coworkers started their view of the world early in life. Ask yourself what you can do to influence the youth to be part of the career that has given you the kind of life you have and enjoy. You can't create software to fix it but you can get involved and change the future. What can you do? Become a mentor, support people that are driving change. You need to get involved and be the driver of change. At the very least understand that what you do now will change the future.
He was really working on Obamacare. That was his pet project and what he believed was the best impact he could make.

I don't know enough to judge if he was right or wrong, but it's pretty clear that was his #1 baby.
It's not about recording so much as managing a broadcast. You can configure many inputs which include external video (e.g. a webcam), media on the machine (recorded video or images), and screens on the device, and outputting this as a unified stream. This stream may be passed on as a virtual video device, which other programs can use, or to a stream host (e.g. Twitch), or be recorded.

These various inputs can be arranged into "scenes" for easy management and switching among them.

If all you need to do is record the raw video from a video device, you don't need OBS.
A blog on Spiral Dynamics and other theories
Hey HN! This is my first time sharing something here...

I recently started a blog/newsletter for Spiral Dynamics. I've been studying it for ~6+ years now, and find it incredibly useful in my personal and professional life. My wife and I use it all the time. The community I started uses it for strategic discussions. I'm even starting to use it at work!

If you're familiar with the framework/model, I'd love some feedback. If you've never heard of it before, check it out, it's super cool!

Thanks guys! ️
Images of his body and the crime scene have been released to the public by the coroner.

In order for any of this speculation around him being alive is true, you realize that this conspiracy would have to involve dozens of people at least, right?

Look, I get the speculation around the circumstances of his death. He was a bad dude that had a lot of powerful friends. But to seriously consider that one or more of his friends would go out of their way to save his life by faking his death is completely ridiculous. If anything, his powerful friends had tremendous incentive to have him killed once he was detained.

Just because our world is being polluted by conspiratorial thinking doesn’t mean we can just stop thinking on a basic level. A plot to fake Epstein’s death makes absolutely zero sense. An ordered hit? Sure, there’s a logical explanation there. But a faked death is such a lazy and absent-minded conspiracy theory.

This is a tricky problem, and we have a couple of ideas. But currently if we're having a longer chat (double clicked will latch-open the mic) then we mute the other groups. Anyone else in the other groups will be able to see that you're muted.

We're contemplate auto-muting other groups when you have incoming audio. Would love to hear your thoughts as well.

Documents/Current/ is a symlink Documents/Months/2020-06/.

Anything that survives more than a month gets promoted to Documents/Projects, with symlinks to that location from any month-directory where I work on that project.

If anything, it is an excellent way, ahem, to discover FreeBSD symlinked directory arcana. The “..” directory never seems to be what I expect it to be.

Everything is rsyncd to NAS:/tank/Backups/ which I never use except as backup space. The NAS and all its ZFS snapshots are backed up to rsync.net’s CH store, with borg, from which I have never had to restore in anguish or anger.

When I run out of space on my laptop, I log in to the NAS and move data from /tank/Backups/ to /tank/Archives/ then delete the data on my laptop. The Archives gather dust alongside the last 30 years of data that has been growing in size linearly in my mind, and exponentially in reality. I hope they may be of interest to someone one day, as my forebears papers have been to me.
Personally, I'd love it if everyone could easily vote with their feet. I think there's more overlap between certain libertarian and socialist visions of the economy than most people realize. In our current system, there's a lot of factors that prevent people from voting with their feet: healthcare, location, switching costs, and availability of jobs being chief among them, but also newer phenomena like non-compete contracts.

The Myth of the Racist Cop (2016)
> which is a reference to non violent people who were having a debate over removal of the statue in question, many of whom were not white supremacists.

Where are these people, exactly? The 'Unite the Right' rally was a white supremacist and neo-nazi rally. They chanted racist things, has nazi flags, was organized by two neo-nazis, and had scheduled neo-nazi and white supremacist speakers. I don't really know how more direct you can get on what kind of rally it was. The idea that tacking a "except for the white supremacists" on the end and that makes the statement somehow different is ridiculous, that covers literally everyone that was there.

And you're complaining about headlines, obviously they don't have the entire context, if it was a paragraph long it wouldn't be a headline. The context they did omit (Which, as I noted, really doesn't make things any better), is still in the articles.

> Now you might ask yourself which group of quiet protesters he has been shown by his staff, but it's quite clear that he is of the impression that they are not white supremacists.

There was no "group of quiet protesters", that's the problem. That night there were neo-nazis and white-supremacists, that's it. The whole point of the criticism is that he's pretending like that side wasn't as bad as it actually was, or that there was somehow good people in it - if he has the impression that these people weren't white supremacists or neo-nazis, that a pretty big deal.

And the idea that "his staff" showed him something misleading is simply untrue, as Trump himself said he waited three days to hold his speech because he wanted to get "all the facts". If it was really that hard for him to find videos of the event that's trivial to find online (it's even in the wikipedia article I linked), perhaps he shouldn't be in his current position :P But I think it is fair for the media (or anybody else) to assume he did see them.

> The allegation that he called neo nazis fine people is bad for your country. If people in your country believe their President actually said that, isn't that terrible for your society? The American media should not be above criticism for playing these kinds of tricks.

Except that, he did say that, about a white supremacist rally. The media even asked for a clarification and he doubled down and talked about the "people from the night before" which were even more explicitly white supremacist.

If you want to claim the media somehow mislead everybody on what he said then show me one of those "good people" he's talking about - who are apparently fine people despite going to an explicitly neo-nazi and white supremacist rally.
Helium does not solidify down to the lowest temperatures that have been achieved (at standard pressure). Though it does become a superfluid, which is a distinct phase of matter from a gas/liquid.
If i had to guess: No relevant catch in the right place.

Perhaps there is no catch at all, so the systemUI process crashes. Since that process is critical, and responsible for things like the status bar, some supervisory process panics, and reboots the phone.

Alternatively perhaps a higher level catch clause does catch this error, but it is at too high a level to be able to recover cleanly by say displaying a black background instead of the wallpaper.

Hard to say without being more familar with the codebase.

Part of the problem may be the budgets of cities.

Real policing, with councilors, with recording, with community involvement may be prohibitively expensive. Especially with those kick the can down the road pension plans.

I suspect this has resulted in the strategy of hire goons, don't pay them that much (yes I know cops in CA are well paid), let them bust the occasional head to keep the rabble somewhat down and the goons happily employed and stick your fingers in your ears and go la la la until the whole scheme blows up.

As another poster mentions, ending the drug war may go a long way towards freeing up resources for better policing.
Obama's AG Eric Holder "barred state and local police from using federal law to seize cash and other property without criminal charges or warrants."

"Since 2008, thousands of police agencies had made more than 55,000 seizures of cash and property worth $3 billion under a Justice Department civil asset forfeiture program, which allowed local and state police to make seizures and then share the proceeds with federal agencies."

Jeff Sessions reversed this policy in 2017[0]. Eric Holder described it as an "extremist action." [1]

"A Washington Post investigation[2] in 2014 found that state and local police had seized almost $2.5 billion from motorists and others without search warrants or indictments since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. The Post series revealed that police routinely stopped drivers for minor traffic infractions, pressed them to agree to searches without warrants and seized large amounts of cash when there was no evidence of wrongdoing.

Police then spent the proceeds from the seizure with little oversight, according to the Post investigation. In some cases, the police bought luxury cars, high-powered weapons and armored cars."

I didn't break into any system. I merely streamlined the gathering of restricted data that I was entitled to anyway through my work. Then I made graphical representations of those data for my own use, in order to do a better job. I figured, if this works for me, it would work for my collegues as well, but I wouldn't want to divulge how I did that for free, and certainly not by letting someone else take all the credit for it. And thus I became a "hacker"...
Why do you think it is dead?
I agree. Note that I don't want this to happen, but I don't share the GP's confidence that it's impossible.
As a developer, he would never have had a stake in the financial outcome of KSP2's sales.

Didn't he bother to look into the history of the first KSP? The owners made bank (and are still making bank) and many of the developers didn't even make the equivalent of the US minimum wage for their work.
I don't know which integrators they're using but an algorithm like RKF45 should handle time acceleration with adaptive step sizes no problem. As grandparent said, n-body is very well-known.

Regardless, KSP's workaround of using SOIs is simple and quite effective.
I think your point mirrors Scott Galloway's and Warren Buffet's philosophies. Why is sweat, regular labor, taxed much more than capital gains? Why do CEOs who are fantastically rich need lower taxation rates than the 100s of laborers their lifestyle relies upon? We tax sweat, we let riches run free.
It wasn't my intent to have this argument, so I'm not going to (I did acknowledge that not everyone agrees for just this reason, though). My cousin comment, reply to Aunche, describes what my intent was (tl;dr: explain the framework in which GDPR is reasonable, so discussion can proceed without outrage). I think I achieved that, and I'm happy you found the analogy strong enough to carry it forward :)
Another thought, is maybe you could also make this a slack plugin. Would reduce the onboarding friction.

I don't think artificial limits are the answer. A far better way to do it is to regulate the rental market in ways that increase the quality of rental accommodation across the board (minimum sizes, improved safety standards, increased tenant rights etc). This puts off people looking for a cheap buck but allows people who can efficiently provide quality housing stock to make a fair profit.
I'm so relieved to hear all the redundancy and testing in place. I had heard that the touchscreens were built in Chromium/JS and was rather alarmed. Don't get me wrong – I do a lot of web stuff and I love that environment, but I've never seen a web app I would trust two human lives to. This, however, sounds like they really thought it through and made it safe.
Bloomberg's basic problem is that people in Iowa hate his personality. Had he actually put in the work, being a billionaire may well have been enough if not for having a major disqualifier like that.
This should be actively fought every step of the way. We don't have to allow any corporation to do anything, they belong to the people who believe and give them power. Everything can be taken away, and everything can be burned.
Agreed - I think it's a distinct problem, though. Crowdsourcing news where the crowd is ignorant and uneducated is harder to fix than what I'm getting at, because the only ethical way to do it is to convince people en masse to be better about identifying credible sources and thinking critically.

But I'm actually more concerned about a state where overnight the government can ban normal day-to-day activities, and if you're on a 30 day ban from Facebook you don't know about it until they're arresting people for surfing. Or, in my town's case, where they've stopped notifying residents of construction-related closures with written notice to each house days ahead of time, and have just started putting it on NextDoor.
Most people cannot simply walk away from a job. Thats a seriously clueless take. Only people with an established career and plenty of connections can even consider just walking away.
How do meth/opioids change the equation? They're not (for the most part) legal.

Apparently it actually is a matter of the size of the dose. I think it is a misconception a lot of us had early on that any contact at all with the virus would cause infection. Note, we still don’t know what the critical dose is, but small doses should be fought off by a healthy immune system.

I'm guessing it's a combination of having to engineer an extra hinge, which could affect durability, and not wanting to cannibalise the sales of their external flashes.
Some restaurants won't do that, I assume because for many payment providers a lot of card not present transactions will lead to increased fees.
You can also use MediaTek's NDI Virtual Input with some desktop apps (like Skype), but I personally use this with OBS to do two things:

- Send out a composite overlay (screen capture + webcam + lower thirds) on Teams/Skype/etc.

- Send out screen capture from another machine (usually OBS to OBS via NDI and then out via this plugin)

OBS is a lot of fun, but, alas, extremely demanding on system resources in some configurations, enough that I've started considering getting a new machine solely for video conferencing.

My comment was mainly aimed at the example in the article, 'bad' developers aren't driven out of the country and since they make a lot more money in Switzerland they have no reason to leave. Yes, it's not literally no one and of course there are always personal reasons or 'that one job' which makes a move worth it.
Black and Hispanic voters support marijuana legalization at a slightly lower rate than whites. But because black voters are overwhelmingly Democrat, and Hispanic voters are disproportionately so, that means they are far to the right of white democrats on the issue. 78% of democrats as a whole support marijuana legalization, versus 67% of black and 63% of Hispanic people. Because black and Hispanic people comprise roughly 35% of the party, the rest of the party (for the most part, whites) have to support legalization at 85%. So there is roughly 20% gap between white and black and Hispanic Democrats on legalization.

I believe the police in this case. Why would people break into a Rolex store and not steal expensive watches that are close to impossible to track.
I'm sorry but no. I'm all for looking at all sides, but Project Veritas is not that. They have done extremely shady things such as intentionally sending a fake victim to WP [0], as well as editing/slicing sentences (which they recorded without consent) to create an entirely different narrative, different from what the person was originally trying to convey [1].

Even a single one of these incidents is enough to completely throw every thing you've done and said into doubt, let alone the half a dozen that PV has behind it. There is absolutely no way you can take anything they say or do serious after they've been caught times and times again lying and misleading.

It has absolutely nothing to do with how outlanding their views are, and everything to do with the fact that what they say or do cannot be trusted. I used to in the beginning, but they are way past being given a "fair look".

I'd argue it's simpler for governments to foster a free and competitive market than try to work against massive vertically integrated companies with tons of lobbyists and power.

Are you suggesting the US has any control over the tech giants? It's clearly not the case, most politicians talk the talk, but they take massive donations in private events and then craft legislation to favor big tech. What we need is more companies, more competition, government needs to bust up the big players and disallow M&A.
