It is legally actionable but it is unfortunately very difficult to actually prosecute. Lawyers are not really incentivized to take on discrimination cases as they are generally difficult to prove and don't pay out well.

As an aside, during my very first job as a junior (female, 21) engineer, an executive told me, unprompted, that I would end my career by the age of 30 to focus on having children. Ironically enough, he was not entirely wrong; I've been quite lucky to have a successful career in corporate settings, but after a constant barrage of comments like these, being inappropriately approached (read: hit on) by both co-workers and managers, and twice now inappropriately touched by co-workers who received no punishment for their behavior (in fact, I was asked to keep said sexual harassment quiet "for the good of the team"), I am indeed leaving these corporate settings to pursue a path on my own. So his prediction came true, although not for the reason he predicted :)
My favorite dig trick is asking caching resolvers with +norecurse to see what's in the cache. Of course some resolvers don't honor it, just like they don't support ANY.
> We're killed by the things we spend a lot of time with, not random out-of-context bacteria that's never seen a mammal before.

We're mostly killed by things that have never been in humans before because we haven't developed defenses. Sure, most of those things don't kill us, but you really only need the right one to come along and basically wipe us out. Part of the reasons we're ultimately able to develop a defense is because it is Earth life and we've seen all the tricks. Any alien microbe that is able to establish itself inside our bodies might not have to worry about any of our defenses.

I think you've really got the wrong model. Think of the introduction of non-native species to various ecosystems. A lot of the time, the non-native species either can't hack it, or they find an equilibrium. But some of the time you get kudzu or eurasian watermilfoil.

In any case, the point is largely moot. Any civilization we are likely to meet in the next thousands of years will necessarily have to visit us and if they can do that, they can just lob a couple space rocks at Earth and wipe us out from a distance.
JustinTV also started on AWS and then moved out to their own, cheaper infrastructure when they grew. And then presumably back at some point.
Perhaps, but Thai people are _well_ aware of how bad it smells, just like the French are well aware of how bad a tasty cheese can smell. It’s eaten here despite the smell, not because they can’t smell it.
This is a very hard problem to solve. It isn’t possible to prevent a well-resourced determined adversary from getting into such a device (iPhones are some of the most well locked-down devices in the world, and there are still jailbreaks). For ordinary hardware you’re probably looking at using something like a TPM, which can be used to decrypt drives based on the state of the bios and hardware. Your best bet is to have trustworthy customers and strong legal protections. If that’s not good enough, a TPM will be the next best thing. Have a look at the red hat documentation on how to set up a TPM for LUKS. Also be sure to set up secure boot correctly with a custom key and lock the BIOS.

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterp...

Edit: I’m reading through your question again. In terms of secrets used to communicate with a back end, it’s very very very important that the secrets used for each device/customer are different, and can be revoked. If you’ve got something like AWS access keys in there, don’t. Use per-user secrets that aren’t the keys to the kingdom.
That's been the trend for a while, but in the case of the proxy icon, the types of interactions you could perform with it were mostly undiscoverable and unknown to a lot of users. You had to actively explore the way the UI worked to figure it out, but I can't say I'm a fan of the change either.

A system that heats water in tank for bath by heat pump at idle time is popular in Japan since mid 2000s (named "Eco Cute"). It expects unused power is found in midnight because of nuclear plants keeps generating power all time. It looks works well until 2011 earthquake. After that, not much nuclear plants working so the assumption isn't very good. Modern systems has connected to HEMS to heat water when power is generated by solar panel. AFAIK currently not connected with smart power grid.

I thought HR was fantastic and was happy with Mankind Divided, I'm disappointed we won't see the reboot finished. I'd love if it lead into a modern reboot of the original DeusEx.

I think your criticisms of the RPG element, which is what the xp pop ups and stuff were, are overly harsh. I would have been happy without timit actions but they were all the rage when HR came out, so I can forgive Eidos for also doing them.
It's only a half-step from what we already have, you have to think about it technically to realize how difficult it is. We already have live broadcasts, CCTVs, aerial imagery and photo satellites. Astral projection is almost the same thing :)

I suspect even very educated people might make this class of mistake if they don't take the time to think about how something works.
The same thing happened to my mom after her stroke.

There wasn't a black spot in her field of vision, it was a kind of indefinite background that didn't stand out, but didn't have any information. Her best explanation is that it was like your peripheral vision, you can "see" things to the side, but you're not getting 100% of the detail you'd get if it was in front.

But yes, she said the same thing - it freaked her out when she would move her eye slightly and something that was hidden by the blind spot popped up.
yes pressing two keys can be faster than pressing one, because you have two hands, pressing A+L is faster than pressing control+delete, due to locality.. your hands are likely closer to A+L than control and delete.

Locality is important, in fact it's the largest factor in determining speed of a hotkey's access.. "distance from home-row"[0] is a measurement that is consistently touted when referring to vim in particular.

Control+[ is significantly faster because your hands move independently. However I'm just now remembering that I always remapped my capslock to be an additional control, so it isn't necessarily universal that control is "as fast" since my "control" is actually on the homerow.. which is unusual.

As it happens, though I was wrong earlier and was confusing ^c and ^[

from `:h i_CTRL-C`

> CTRL-C: Quit insert mode, go back to Normal mode. Do not check for abbreviations. Does not trigger the InsertLeave autocommand event.

^[ is interpreted exactly the same as ESC; vim can't see a difference. (you can see this under `:h keycode` )

I think ultimately their buyout of Ninja, Shroud and others flopped hard.

It doesn't look like macOS 11's new UI is going to need macOS 10 users to "stop and figure out" the interface in the way switching from macOS 10 to Xfce (or vice-versa) would. The buttons aren't all moving around to strange places. The functionality isn't materially changing. What they're changing is the design language, not the fundamental UX.

Chips are manufactured using equipment that is not made in Taiwan or China. It's primarily made in the USA, Japan and Europe. That same equipment is available to Intel.

In the last 12 months, Intel's net profit was $21,000,000,000.

I don't work for Intel so I don't know, but I'd wager that any chip node that TSMC can produce, Intel can produce as well. Intel has access to the same equipment and plenty of profit to work with. They either choose not to, or, they simply choose not to advertise the capability.

For TSMC, as a foundry, their manufacturing capability is a selling point. For Intel, it is a strategic advantage. It makes sense for TSMC to announce what node they are capable of. It does not make sense for Intel to do so. Intel sells chips based on the chips' capabilities. Not on Intel's manufacturing capabilities.

Jackfruit or Durian?
Yeah, flushing the cache in your own recursive resolver doesn't flush them all over the internet.
This sounds simple but it really isn't.

First, the vast majority of signals aren't networked, they're on simple timers. And you can't just put them on the internet for hopefully obvious reasons.

Second, there's a bit of a butterfly effect. Change one thing and the whole system reacts in sometimes unpredictable ways.

Third, you need to account for pedestrians too. There's ADA requirements around how long signals are green for based on the width of the road.

Fourth, you need to account for pedestrian load. There's no cameras trained on the areas where pedestrians gather. If you're going to say they just need to press the button, no:

https://cal.streetsblog.org/2020/04/01/stop-touching-pedestr...

Basically, it's really not that simple.
Most definitely Durian.

Jackfruit is amazing too though. It's used a lot as a "meat" substitute. For example, jackfruit curry is delicious, nutritious and hearty.

> (perhaps spawning a thread or something, so the program can continue on)

No as far as I understand blocking just blocks. Which is the problematic part.

> The function is no longer async, and in fact both keywords basically become no-ops, but the point is that you can express concurrency even if you’re not able to take advantage of it.

(Emphasis done by me)

For many cases this is fine as "async" could just have completed one the first poll which we could just have done before the first yield.

But the problem is if you try to do something like calling two functions async which needs synchronization between them to complete. Something you generally should really avoid. But sometimes this is the only sane way to do certain things in complex systems. (But then it might make sense to simplify such a system or split it apart).

So I would say for many use-cases including all normal web-servers Zig's solutions is not just good but preferable. But to do some things it's bad.

Through it's just a question to add some escape hatches for the view cases where it matters or so.

Anyway spawning a thread on every `async` call if `.blocking` is used would be really bad.
I can see them doing that for big volume buys for education. I don't see why they wouldn't just pass on the entire Intel margin to them, getting students using Apple products young has value.

Hard to find a fruit stall without it in Thailand, but I’ve not seen if for sale in my (much more limited) time in India. It’s a staple in Thailand, so maybe that’s the reason?
As simple as this sounds, there are ramifications. It might make sense for YOU at that light at the time, but does it make sense for the greater good of flow?

Off hand, I'd say lights are often timed such that once you get one green you get a lot of greens, then you're asking for more stop and go traffic simply because someone showed up and threw off the sequence.

Take away that and you gain some benefits, but you also lose in other areas.

Not an easy problem.

This is interesting given it's the same strategy that MSFT played w/ Windows Phone:

1. See a market that's doing really well that you didn't enter until 5+ years too late and the market is quite established.

2. Play catch up by paying a bunch of 'producers', streams/development houses, to come on board yet still doing the same thing everyone else does with zero base.

3. Exit said market because the money being pumped in is 100x or 1000x worse than the returns.

MSFT's other strategy, buy and then operate usually pans out better for them.

Yang himself is not really a tech guy (he's an econ grad who became a lawyer, then ran companies and non-profits).

But looking at his book and platform, one can't help but notice that it heavily incorporates ideas that are popular in tech circles (UBI, automation, etc). Then on top of that he spends time talking about non-mainstream topics like Ranked Choice Voting, blockchain, etc. Who else talks about these things on the debate stage?
It's also about the only direction left. There's hardly any lawful, paid proliferation to go around.

One thing I do notice is occasional spam in "new," but, to my delight, it always winds up flagged before an hour has passed. This is usually the case even with border-line posts (eg: an acceptable title like "I just found an amazing text-editor" but a link to a lousy, crap-app text-editor). I don't have too many complaints; HN moderation is better than any other site I know.

Perhaps you should just try without JS one day and you might be relieved off a large burden that comes with JS (a lot of security issues, complexity, organizing files and loading, crawling and indexing support). I think the threshold for switching to JS use should be higher than it is currently for all the people who just use it by default.
Whoa, this would be awesome! Strongly consider publishing open datasets. :) Could you talk at all about how it works, or what privacy issues you've dealt with?
> That's not a scenario specific to real time bidding though. You could also just buy a regular ad and do that.

With a regular ads (ad words), you don't get to target based on cookie, geo, or other identifying characteristics in real time. Through programmatic ad exchanges you can do it in real time since every auction contains all the information to perform the targeting and enhance your models; the cookie, the url where the ad was going to be displayed, the browser characteristics, etc (read RTB for that).

> How can you associate the data from bids you didn't win to the data you get from ads that you did win and serve? Even with cookie syncing that doesn't necessarily reveal when a past/future bid opportunity matches a user you already know (unless you bid on it and win)

Associating between auctions and wins is simple, they share the same id. You listen to a different stream for bid result notifications. Moreover, your own embedded pixel will give you the information upon impression.

The key here is that the auction, what you get by just listening, comes already with all the information; if you listen enough, you can build the full browsing history of the cookies you track. Using this information you can build models to predict where these specific cookies will go next, and show them ads or alter the publisher context they are exposed to in order to route them where you want to route them. B2C marketing and political propaganda services are all about that.
Any update? I haven’t seen any links or posts to apply either.
The term "gig" has evolved into something different than what it might have refered to a few years ago, before the phrase "gig worker" was used almost exclusively to refer to people who rely on various tech platforms to funnel them work on demand. More and more there is a socioeconomic connotation of relatively low pay as the most used platforms tend to be those with the lowest average hourly wages, but I suppose that's not a strict requirement.

Oh my gosh I wish they'd have stopped with Rhapsody, to tell you the truth. Constantly redoing the UI while leaving basic functionality at a very bare level is really not doing it for me any more. Apple has moved against power users several times in the past in more aggressive terms but always having a fresh look in the UI is just a pointless exercise.

Consistency is much more important especially when reaching the phone- and tablet-raised crop of people who don't really know how a computer works nor do they care. Same with many people, they simply need a computer for their various duties. A more tech-oriented person will never have problems adapting to even radically different UI paradigms and degrees of chrome but less techy people will.

Add more functionality to the OS, fix the ancient packages, do SOMETHING for the more advanced users, Apple. Please?
Everything that enables privacy absolutely could enable child exploitation imagery. But privacy as a whole is too fucking valuable to give up to make prosecuting some crimes easier. In the US, that's the whole point of the fourth amendment -- warrants with probable cause and specificity requirements are the proper escape hatch, not bulk data sifting. Not all crime can or should be caught at any cost whatsoever.

Moderation need not end in dystopian thought policing. Reddit has had moderation for quite some time. Indeed voting was there from the beginning, and is a primitive crowdsourced form of moderation, with many obvious flaws, including groupthink.

Forum moderation's whole point is to constrain what can be said. It can be used for good or ill. Extending it to bans from agreeing with wrongthink is a step beyond the status quo. Maybe it'll balance out to be good on net, maybe bad, but don't pretend it's not novel or that it's obviously good on balance, and no one should be concerned.

Adding a options for rethinking current systems would be nice.

For example, autonomous vehicles would be interesting. You potentially don't need intersection control with all autonomous traffic. Or what is the benefit of certain streets or lanes being designated autonomous only?

And what is the impact of education? Is there a way to change behavior that's cheaper than changing a street for example? You can change the street, but you can also change how people use the street.
