They had the potential to perform this mission, but other pilots have said that A2A missiles (AIM-9 Sidewinders) were never equipped. It would have been hard to launch them from the F-117. If they were mounted on wing rails, it would have messed up their stealth, and launching from a trapeze inside the launch bay would have required some finicky hardware.

Great idea, and definitely considered, but never made it into an actual capability.
Traffic enforcement could be massively reduced if roads were designed differently to make people go the posted speed and be safer.
Sprin isn't. yet. who knows what's going to happen with the merger. AT&T is though. I'm using OpenMPTCP router to my VPS to both get around CGNAT and aggregate the speed of both connections.
All of my dating is YYYYMMDD or YYYYMM. Anything that comes before the '.' (e.g. 41.Eberron Campaign) is a two digit code to describe the file, the first digit = type of document and the second digit = personal priority.

Technically, (in most places I’ve read about (in the US)) it’s not illegal to have it in your system. It’s illegal to be in possession of it. Presumably so people who OD actually go to the hospital.
Ask HN: How to Remain Silent
I see many people who are calling being silent or having no opinion as being a racist or violence against certain groups.

It seems you

A. Can't be silent

B. Have to choose an extreme polarized side - cops bad or protests (or riots) bad. Anyone against protest inhumane vs anyone calling for cop violence good.

C. Can't be a centralist.

How do you avoid confrontation when the person is putting a gun at your throat to make you say something extremely polarizing political stuff?

I am more than happy to discuss ways to resolve racism issues but I won't generalize or join the mob moralising of people having different opinions than them and witch hunting.
It was obvious, that's why most every other country across the world started wearing masks while the US didn't.
Apparently it's okay for Zoom to shunt this responsibility for its paid users? Even if I were to accept your premise that omitting E2EE is a legitimate trade-off to detect abuse, Zoom's choice to selectively apply this standard for its free users suggests that this is NOT why Zoom chose to do this.
I’m not clear on whether you take issue with my phrasing or the situation as it stands but I think it would be ridiculous for anyone to pretend that this president/any US president isn’t going to be held to a different standard pretty much across all walks of life. And yes, I think our leaders (from local officials to police to congressmen/senators, the president, his appointed staff, and everyone else in a position of authority over others or responsibile for anyone), should be held to a higher moral and perhaps even legal standard thanks everyone else, but I think that ship sailed quite some time ago.
It definitely seems that way to me.

$150B estimated market FTA is much smaller than the $400B estimated for drugs. Humans are much more difficult to traffic than drugs so there would be much higher operating costs and risks due to the fact that it is not a victimless crime.

I don't disagree with really much of anything you said, but my comments was in regards to the inability to perfectly take pre-existing conditions into account and still perform their job of protecting the public from violent suspects that don't respond to even the best, most perfect de-escalation techniques. A person attacking a bystander, or a cop for that matter, especially with potentially maiming or lethal force, may have to be dealt with using police force. That force, even when it's the minimum necessary to protect the public, may nonetheless trigger a pre-existing condition, and I don't think there is any realistic way of avoiding such edge cases.
I agree with you in spirit, but the Fairness Doctrine in the United States was a variation of this, where the FCC required that approximately equal time and attention be paid to all sides of a major issue. Ronald Reagan removed this in the 80s, and helped popularize conservative talk radio. The justification was that the limited bandwidth of television made it in the public interest to regulate its influence. The internet is much higher bandwidth, so the same argument doesn't hold water.

EDIT: What qualified as "equal" and "all sides of a major issue" were up to the discretion of the FCC, so enforcement was fairly ad hoc
I noticed this post mentions GoatCounter but says that it doesn't meet his needs because it isn't self-hosted.

It is not by default, but you certainly can self host it, and the author has been quite open about that being a viable path for people interested in doing so. I self host GoatCounter myself and it works very well.
In result of working with multiple unsorted files and systems+vms during 10 years my file structure evolves multiple times.

I made ideal top architecture called 'indexed tags': <tag><index>

project0 - tag: 'project', index: 0

project1 - tag: 'project', index: 1

I used automatic tools for drive differences with my drive.py tool. drive.py analyze two disks changes + calc hash for each file, then produce report

Plus:

+ cover all systems, languages & projects, docs, notes + big data things

+ independed mac-linux-win-vms bridge

+ remove random download chaos

+ minimalistic & lite

Minus:

- None

Linux and Mac base dirs (same for Cygwin):

~/src - everything is here

~/mnt - symlinks to mount drives

Backups:

/backup/ - projects backups

/DD/<FULL_HW_DRIVE_NAME> - big data copies, iso, vms, dd, unsorted manual copy node_modules/

Projects examples:

Here's a good summary: [1]

Basically, the analogy of shouting "fire" in a theater was meant to illustrate the "clear and present danger" doctrine - if an act of speech could lead to clear and present danger which there were laws against, then the speech was not protected. What's false about this analogy is that the "clear and present danger" standard isn't the standard that speech is measured against today. Instead, speech is restricted according to the "imminent lawless action" doctrine, by which speech that could lead directly to people breaking the law is not protected. This was decided in Brandenburg v. Ohio[2], and the central tenet of the ruling is:

"Advocacy of force or criminal activity does not receive First Amendment protections if (1) the advocacy is directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action, and (2) is likely to incite or produce such action."

Thus, standing on a street corner and praising the merits of rioting and damaging property might be protected speech if it was very unlikely for anyone to take those actions, but if you did it during a restless protest march the protections of free speech may not apply.

Yes, and my entire point is that it’s not news. It’s ok to be utopian or idealistic without being blind to the harsh realities of the world we live in today. Let’s not feign surprise, that just makes us look ignorant.

> What about Paul Nehlen, a political candidate...

If that despicable moron somehow got elected, I think there would be a public interest in keeping his statements available to the public. If for no other reason than to maintain the public record of him making those statements as an elected official.

If President Trump told a journalist “when the looting starts, the shooting starts” and the journalist reported it, should social media censor that journalist? Of course not. Well in this case we don’t need the journalist because we can just see it ourselves. Social media can be, among many other things, a window into thoughts that public figures would not otherwise share without a significant filter in place. If elected officials actually want to live their private mental lives in that particular fishbowl, I sure as hell want to be able to keep an eye on them.

> Social media is a not a public square where people can plant their soapbox

Under California law there is an affirmative right to free speech even inside private shopping malls. So if your social media company is subject to California civil rights laws, the “private property” argument doesn’t hold up.
You may not be aware but methamphetamine is schedule 2 and is prescribed for a number of purposes the brand name is desoxyn. Meth is not inherently dangerous to use when it's production is regulated. Also, you can NOT die from touching fentanyl that is a myth there are many videos online of people handling fentanyl with their bare hands.
And just like NAT with IPv4, we will use hacks to get around implementing a proper solution for decades (and counting).

With satellite internet taking off, and actual interest in extraterrestrial colonies from e.g. NASA and SpaceX, I think we need a proper space communication protocol. Maybe it can all be solved in L2, but I think we will soon be looking at 255 hops the way we look at the limited address space of v4.
And as of 1846 pacific time, we have another fully successful launch. Second stage nominal low orbit. The first stage has been recovered for the 5th time. All sixty satellites released.

Watching Louis Rossman's videos on insurance recently has given me a whole new perspective on the subject. It's amazing just how much they get away with.
But did we actually have “politicians pushing drugs”? “Push” sounds to me like “suggest people take.” I’m certain that the president didn’t tell anybody to take anything. He said almost verbatim what dr fauci was saying elsewhere at that same point in time. (See dr fauci on the jama podcast earlier that same week.) I won’t argue that the president has not oversold optimism at every juncture, but to say he “pushed” people to take plaquinil (illegally?) is either delusional or dishonest.
They are not separate in the monopoly sense though, are they ? Chrome, presumably a cost center, exists only to facilitate google's other businesses. Nobody has punished google for keeping products separate. Quite the contrary. It has always been about extending dominance in one segment to an unrelated one. So google could say that they treat all trackers equally in the incognito mode, and that would be correct, but if google analytics is the revenue center, and the cost center is giving it a free pass, the argument that other trackers can also bypass incognito seems weak.
I suspect it was mostly to avoid having to deal with password resets / forgotten emails. Concerns (whether accurate or not) about GDPR compliance accelerated the trend. Forums are mostly run by overworked volunteers who don't particularly care about the tech side of things and just want to get on with whatever the forum is actually for discussing.
Is that better than existing MIRVs? And I sure hope there's less military escalation in the future, not more.
Not only that, but there were police officers on duty in the city; per Wikipedia ‘The provincial government posted 400 officers from the Sûreté du Québec to Montreal in the morning.’

If anything, this is an experiment in what happens if you unexpectedly swap the police in a city for a different set in the middle of a crisis.
From memory, it's absurdism that embraces absurdity, referring to the conflict between the human tendency for meaning attribution and the inherent lack of universal meaning. Absurdism is more comparable to existentialism and nihilism. Postmodernism has infinite truths; it values subjectivity and relativism. Truth or knowledge are whatever is pragmatic to the beholder. It can be opposed to the more traditional positivist perspective, that upholds objective truth. Something objectively true can be true or false for the postmodernist. Fields like medicine or engineering seem to stick to a neo/positivist philosophy, thankfully. Imagine building a bridge when opinions can be worth more than objective laws. Adhering to postmodernism has been convenient for politicians, e.g. to spin issues in one's favor or to adopt policy founded on "science" for hidden reasons.

Autonomous Open-Wheelers Will Race at Indianapolis Next Year for a $1M Prize
I'm fully aware that my home is spiraling into disaster. But we still have a ways to go before we're on the same level as either of those places. The way things are going we may get there sooner rather than later, but we have a ways to go regardless. China is the global poster-child for police brutality, and Russia for state-run propaganda media.
I'm guessing it's only supposed to cover "traffic accidents", as opposed to "user caused" accidents (eg. dropping your phone on the ground).
After we shrunk the size of our military in the 1990s, closed a bunch of bases etc there was a surplus of military hardware that was no longer being purchased by the military. Mysteriously at the same time we passed a bill allowing police to do things like buy tanks etc under the guise of anti-riot equipment, despite not needing it before for well over a century. All sorts of equipment deemed only necessary for fighting wars on foreign soil, suddenly became part of the equipment catalog for rural police forces in places like Vermont and New Hampshire.

The concept that the local police force and national military should own/use the same equipment is fairly recent, only happening in the last 25 years, and in great numbers only post-9/11.
The 2012 STOCK Act requires disclosure of all assets exceeding $1,000 in value -- so the disclosure information we collect includes private holdings. We only calculate financial returns for listed assets.

This is an active topic in our research pipeline -- specifically, whether holdings in private companies are going up among officials. Returns in private companies are certainly less transparent, so this might be the way to go if an official wanted to obfuscate.

Most of the left leaders I follow and trust are specifically opposed to police unions due to the fact that they protect violent officers.

I believe the Tesla Models 3 and Y's LCD screens were a cost cutting measure -- one LCD replaces dozens of smaller screens, switches, buttons, and indicators, as well as the PCBs and metal chassis to support them and the molded plastic to hide the PCBs and chassis.

It's probably also less engineering effort to put a set of controls on the screen than to design the corresponding physical controls.

If you trust Wikipedia, this is the first sentence in the US section on insider trading: "Until the 21st century and the European Union's market abuse laws, the United States was the leading country in prohibiting insider trading made on the basis of material non-public information."[0]

I'm not a lawyer, nor do I work in finance, but I think the key is what exactly constitutes "non-public information." I can trade on all the public information regarding Tesla's cars, like reviews, published production numbers, and Elon's tweets and my own analysis of all tat but not on the word of a someone who works there saying they've got some big unexpected news.

There's a bunch of interesting cases about whats on the edge, for example, commercial satellite imagery to count cars in parking lots[1].

>Daily deaths are decreasing while daily new cases are increasing.

But, as I originally stated, there are a lot more tests being done now, and that could explain why the number of confirmed cases is increasing. Some weeks ago they only tested those requiring hospitalization, and as time went on now anyone can get a test.

It would be nice if there were weekly samples of 20k people to serve as a valid week-to-week measure of the population infection rate.

Three of Trump's personal trusts have investments in Sanofi, the manufacturer of HCQ. In fact, in one of the trusts, Sanofi is the largest holding. So I don't think it's entirely unwarranted to question motivations.

Celebrating someone being wrong is, agreed, wrong.
"Police" (Edit:"modern police") is a 19th century invention, well after cities were a thing. If we get past semantics, a service that provides order and security to a community is needed. I imagine it more like social workers that also do criminal investigations for prosecutors instead of a military force for a city. Perhaps an unrelated armed "police" can help when deadly force is needed (gangs, armed criminals,etc...).

Disarm and civilize the police but keep their SWAT units as a separate department that only backs up police when requested.

This would throwing a lot less people in jail and having police that live in the community. But hey, this is just wishful imagination, politicians and police union would commit sedition if anything like this happened.
>I don't understand why... if I invest money I worked to earn, the profit from putting that money to use should be taxed three times: once while paying the employee the company hires to carry out business, twice after profit is calculated and corporate income tax taken, and then thrice when they tax me for the dividend. Surely twice is enough?

My point is that if you are investing in a secondary market, you are not putting that money to use. It goes into the pocket of whoever sold you the stock and the company doesn't see a dime from the transaction.

If we must have taxes, I would rather have them not come from earned income (like a job), which takes labor and creates value. Income from the secondary market require no labor, and create no value.

If you believe rewarding and incentivizing value creation is more moral and socially desirable.
