Morgan Stanley Economists Double Down on V-Shape Global Recovery
Not race, but I was sent to a French public school at six.

When I started, I could only say my name. Within a year, I was fluent. After 3 years, I was made to skip a grade. I stood out, but knowing I was better than all those kids at their own native language was quite the ego boost.

Later on, the same race, combined with the language fluency, allowed me to blend in, so I was spared from most negative experiences that immigrants face.
That's so not true and obviously complete bullocks! ;)

Joke aside: great insight. I am actually going to try this. btw: there is also a case to be made where your strong emotions over others' wrong thinking protect you from doing stupid things (again).

Yep, we were down during that time. I don't know what Heroku is doing with this certificate thing, but seems like a mess.
Well there is 25% from Willow Cove to Skylake, so you are looking at 20% increase from Willow Cove to Golden Cove, and another 20% from Golden Cove to Ocean Cove.

Not entirely impossible. Given some of these improvement has been sitting within Intel for years due to the delay in 10nm.
> After the new machines are released, all Mac app store apps will just magically work because they were recompiled behind the scenes by Apple to run on ARM.

That would be really magical; this is essentially impossible.
Apple's privacy marketing seems like just that. All of their proprietary software is highly suspect. And remember, the COVID-19 contact tracing APIs were built by both _Google_ and Apple. If Apple was so concerned about privacy they would have implemented the tracing APIs themselves for the iPhone and released the source code.
Since they released their 2016 lineup there has been a shift from Macs to Linux and Windows (just look at how many "I left macOS for {X}" have been published here on HN)

Windows is also making a very compelling argument with WSL2
I agree that police violence and brutality is at unacceptable levels. However, number of bullets fired may not be a good statistic. My understanding is US police officers are trained to fire the whole magazine of rounds.
Insurance fraud is its own special area in law. It's not a game to be played. It's not a free market to be exploited. If the courts say it's fraud then it's fraud and this is pretty obviously fraud. This is the same in England, the US, China, and probably everywhere else in the world.
Either you're generalizing a bit too much or I'm weird as I'm mid 30's now, and I have definitely read 1984 but have never seen Avatar. In fact when I read "Avatar" I think of blue space aliens before I think of the anime.

Best 5 Confirmed SEO Tips to Rank 1 on Google Search (2020)
Bootstrapping a distributed swarm is always a tricky proposition. Bittorrent clients use a few endpoints to bootstrap their dht, and then upgrade to p2p after that. I think that's a good compromise, especially if you can have a number of highly-available options to cycle through.

With Squawk[1] we do the initial signaling through our own servers via websocket, and a key registry for authing peers to each other, but after that, all the fun stuff happens p2p. The protocol level data (who's speaking, which group they're speaking to, whether they are muted, etc) flows entirely p2p over data channels, and since we're audio only we made the decision not to use SFUs but rather do a full mesh architecture (massive PITA but it does scale well to 20-30 peers) with geo-optimized TURN servers when people need to punch through NAT (but TURN does not terminate ssl).

This is very unlikely to be practical in any way. Just ask yourself how many times you've seen a lightbulb in the last five years. Sure, you've seen plenty of light fixtures, lots of neon tubes, some LED bulbs, etc, but an old fashioned light bulb, not enclosed in any type of lamp shade?

That aside, how are you going to discretely point a telescope at the light bulb from a distance of 25 meters? You might as well point a parabolic microphone at them and get a better signal.
OP said “one of the most...”

It makes me wonder if some day we could break our data out of their silos by storing responses from the sites where we currently have our accounts. In theory, my account on this site should be able to express a "like" on a Tweet, or an up-vote on a Reddit post.

I'm not sure how to do that in a way that doesn't break privacy expectations, and that doesn't involve using a blockchain somewhere, unfortunately.
Trunk also means "a person's or animal's body apart from the limbs and head" which is clearly body shaming of amputated people so don't use that.

Maybe "the right not to be prosecuted for a victimless crime" should be an amendment. Then homelessness/drugs-whatevers/prostitution can no longer have laws against them.

"Address the root cause", exactly, and the root cause is the unjust laws. Though cops pretty much never being found guilty for unjust use of violence is a big one too, and I wonder what law changes can solve that issue.

One way to protect yourself is buying licenses to images from a service that provides legal indemnification. Part of the reason why stock image websites can earn money is that they provide this, so (at least part of) the risk is with them.

You're using concrete numbers but you don't have the statistics or analysis to know what the numbers are. I'm going to assume the company that has telemetry on its own product does.

> given that in construction, a client would expect the contractors to bring their own construction tools.

In construction, the contractor does not have to leave his drill to you so your house continues functioning.

Many software licenses are billed per project/per site. You can't expect the contractor to cover these for you for free.
32 bit is going back a lot longer, although my machine which I haven't upgraded to Catalina still has a few 32bit applications kicking around on it including one that I was using in my professional work only 6 months ago.

Plenty of 64 bit software exists that isn't being updated often or at all anymore.
A lot of bars, cafes, etc use decorative bulbs with thin, easily vibrating wires inside (even though LED-based). I can imagine such a bulb at a home, too.
> I don't really understand how she made money.

Well, she had some kind of inside knowledge where she knew that insurance would probably provide a payout for the flight.

I'd like to know what this inside knowledge is? What did she know that she could use to predict that a flight would probably be delayed?
68k was also a dead end. It was very popular, in computers, video game consoles, etc. But it also never got up to ~100MHz.

Going to PowerPC was the only real option at the time.
It's important to discuss apples and apples though. Insurance is not a securities contract. So it can be completely reasonable that treating insurance contracts like options is illegal, immoral, or both. And achieving a moral end through immoral means rarely has no effect on the end. Even assuming her activity is moral (not conceding the point, but for the sake of argument), I have a hard time thinking it is still moral when she has to use fraudulent identities to get to that end, especially when that end is simply enriching herself.
> it's good to understand the enormous range of people who could be offended

Again, possibly another unpopular opinion, but there really is a huge range of things people are offended by and there will always be people being offended by something. If you keep removing things that people are offended by then there's not much left.

Granted there's a line, but I don't think this meets that threshold.
Why would you pin a certificate that you did not generate for a domain that's not yours?
That's easy to do on a desktop, but can be cumbersome on mobile. I guess the problem is biggest on mobile, because of this and issues with glare etectera from sunlight, or low screen intensity at night.
Add to that a concept of shit rolling uphill. My CEO is very serious about SOX compliance because if his subordinates mess up, he can go to prison. If cops have a history of malfeasance and are not removed, their superior should be removed. If systemic issues exist, the top should be removed. Then we will see some changes because incentives start to align.
If you have a Davis VP2 Weather station, I wrote a blog post a while back reverse-engineering the protocol, and showed how to sniff its wireless transmissions and receive it on something like an IM-ME Pretty Pink Pager.

Have you read Raymond Chen's MS blog about all of the hacks that are in Windows just to keep backwards compatibility with one bad app? Maintaining backwards compatibility forever increases the security vulnerability to footprint, the testing surface for regressions, code size etc. Have you seen how badly Windows runs in low resource environments like the low end Surface line?

IE and the collapse of MS's browser market share is not exactly a shining example of how to successfully handle a product.

See the other comment for some of the exceptions.
Error correction in CPUs is generally limited to the cache, and its incidence is recorded: if something had failed permanently such that the error correction path was being taken constantly, you would be able to record it.

Absent a mechanism which reduces the clock speed of the CPU when it becomes unstable, there's no reasonable way in which failures in the CPU will result in it running slower. Such a mechanism doesn't generally exist: modern CPUs regulate their clock but only in response to a fixed power and temperature envelope. The recent iphone throttling is the only notable case where anything was done automatically in response to an unstable CPU, and that consisted of applying a tighter envelope if the system reset.

This is reflected in the experiences of those who run older hardware with contemporary software: it generally still works just fine at the speed that it used to.
Even one is blatantly unacceptable.
A pipe is like a special file that takes text from one program and puts it into another.

A terminal is either a physical object with a screen and a keyboard, or software that pretends to be such an object.

The terminal can display text, but also certain sequences of text do special things. For example, if the terminal receives the character for the escape key followed by [?1000h then it doesn't display it. Instead it turns on mouse click support. So a program connected to your terminal that wants mouse support can send that sequence. Then if you click, your terminal types an escape key, followed by [M, followed by three characters to say what buttons you're holding and where the mouse is located. Now the program will know you clicked.
All I have done is looked for somewhat stable dividend payers, bought those, and held them until various unpleasant circumstances forced me to liquidate. The service I am using now has good guardrails, nice screeners, very responsive customer service, and I am pretty happy with them. The first one tried to look like it was out of Trading Places and was so confusing that I didn’t manage to make a trade on it before dumping it.

At the least I know I don’t know everything in stocks. I know enough to ask questions when I don’t understand. My account is still set to zero margin and will stay there for the time being.
>The few posts saying "she was throwing things" have fewer than 10 followers.

What does the number of followers have to with whether a statement is true or not? That's absurd. Donald Trump and Elon Musk have tens of millions of followers on Twitter; I have very few. Does that make me a liar?
That announcement killed the little developer love that they still had.

Symbian was transitioning to better Java support, moving aways from Symbian C++ via Qt and PIPS (POSIX support for Symbian), 3rd Reboot of Symbian IDE (2nd Eclipse based attempt), having Python and Web based widgets as well.

Then comes the Windows phones announcement telling Symbian developers that all the tooling improvements from the last couple of years would be thrown out the Window.

That was the last drop to just abandon Nokia phones as platform for many of those developers, that decided to focus on Android/iOS instead.

Also as former employee that deal was quite a surprise to us, Nokia used to have a strong anti-MS culture on the engineering units.
That last section made me tear-up.

That's all you had to know.

> I think we need to get to the point where the term “racist” is not used as a generic catch-all for anything race-related.

You should understand that this supports racist ideas and policy when you say it. Edit: unless you mean "in another 400 years after we've made radical policy changes"

Edit again: I can't reply bc posting speed limits and the balance of racism/antiracism in HN threads, so please go read e.g. "How to be an Antiracist" and you'll see where I'm coming from.
I think you're better off having a spare machine and your data in the cloud than to have 2 different CPUs on the same machine. It would massively increase the price and complexity, reduce reliability, etc. It's 2 machines in one box somehow. In the end your machine will not serve its purpose with the backup CPU or you would have bought one with that as a main CPU from the start.

We're going in the direction where the hardware is a commodity to replace as you see fit and the data stays somewhere safe to be used regardless of device. Phone, tablet, PC, console, etc. can consume the same data.

It's not ideal because I'd like hardware to be reliable, not something I can expect to die on me when I need it most but it's pretty clear we're going that way outside of niches, with most devices being exceedingly hard or impossible to upgrade or repair.
Cows produce (literally: fart) a lot of methane, which is an incredibly potent driver of global warming. A lot of energy also goes into the whole chain of production, from fertilizer used on feedstocks to transportation and so on.

Even compared just to other meats, beef is terrible for the climate. IIRC, pork does less than 1/3 the damage, and chicken gets close to vegetables on this measure

Come to Brooklyn or LA or any place where hipsters congregate. Exposed “Edison” style bulbs are a bit of a trend even residentially.... you can buy them at Home Depot and Walmart, so it’s mainstream. Granted it’s still the vast minority of fixtures.
Nope. Any third party software that assumes a “master” branch always exists and is always the main branch was already broken.
Yeah. Lots of things that were uploaded to this cloud service were transcriptions or complete rips of sheet music of in-copyright works. Sheet music is also copyrighted and when the music industry found out about the service, it got strong armed.
“receive relevant information” doesn’t really adequately answer the question of how.
Unfortunately, I think we're already at a clickbait science level to some extent in some fields, depending on what you mean by "clickbait".

This effect would have to be replicated in some form to understand its boundaries better but if it were to generalize I think it has much broader implications than just Twitter and thoracic surgery.

There have been lots of bibliometric studies of citation impact etc. but this is one of the first times I've seen an actual experimental study in academics of this sort of thing, and it confirms what a lot of people have been experiencing, which is that actual scientific quality is only part of the reason why some work gets lots of attention. Replace twitter with other forms of social networking and the implications become clear.

There's ups and downs to this: maybe some underappreciated work would get more attention if it's marketed more, for example. But it speaks to the role of things outside of the domain of study per se (not sure what the term for this would be -- something like nondiagetic but for scientific content).
As opposed to using classes? What is the advantage?
Debt is such a common financial instrument that other financial instruments (like credit derivatives) refer to themselves as buying and selling insurance.
Good point. But this stuff is always cat and mouse. The mafia bigshots figured out that they couldn't talk on the phone in the 60s and 70s once the FBI started aggressively pursuing wiretaps. So they shifted.

In the 2000s, drug dealers figured out that Nextel direct connect weren't tracable... so Nextel kiosks sprung up in the hood and you'd see them all over. After that, prepaid burners were the next thing, followed by BlackBerry, etc.

If your organizing protests in such a way that are going to attract surveillance, "Use X" is dumb advice. It depends on the situation and what consequences you can sustain. An activist may want to be arrested. A Federal employee may sacrifice their career just for being present. Context matters, but the smart path is to leave your phone at home.
You will laugh. UK. I value the respect of law that penetrates their society noticeably deeper than in Czechia.
While the title is about lightbulbs this looks like the same principle as using a laser to measure the vibrations on the surface of a window in order to listen to the audio inside a room (something that's been science fact since at least the early 90s). I don't see why the laser or optical sensor couldn't be measuring vibrations of something inside the room: a clear line of sight and a mylar balloon might be the perfect tool for such passive surveillance trick.
What are the advantages over using data attributes instead of classes in order to style HTML elements?
I don't recognize that one, but there are in fact characters that render as whitespace but aren't, for example U+2800 (BRAILLE PATTERN BLANK).
The Matrix homeserver Conduit supports Server-side key backups
Matrix is a secure, private, decentralized, open source messaging platform (https://matrix.org)

Conduit (https://conduit.rs) implements the Matrix specification in Rust, which makes it very lightweight and performant.

The server-side backups are not merged into the master branch yet and Conduit is still a bit away before one can use it like a regular Matrix homeserver (Federation is still missing).
Gambling is taking risks with an expectation of possible gain.

In this case, the risk of never needing insurance is balanced by the gain of whatever is insured if it is lost.

One could argue that this is decreasing risk in exchange for less gain, but that’s still using a tool for balancing risk and gain, aka gambling.

Go too deep and life is gambling.
Excalidraw is pretty cool, but its main drawback is that is has no backend. The drawings cannot be persisted to the server, and you cannot collaborate with someone on a drawing unless you are both connected at the same time.

Handcuffing a lifeless freshly shot body is more than enough. I’ve seen it over and over. Why is that a policy?

Second, why shoot to kill and not to incapacitate? Shoot to kill is a policy. Why is that a policy?

The police rule by fear. I’ve never broken the law and yet Im really affraid of cops in the US. I know I should not have a reason to but can’t help but be intimidated by their tactics, their orders, their demeanour. And I act like a scared ghost anytime I get stopped by them: I am afraid that if any answer I’d give them might make them punish me with one more more tickets.
