The bar for the tech work activists to not consider a company "evil" is impossible high. It seems like any attempt to actually operate like a business (and actually.. you know.. make money?) is met with open hostility. I really don't condone furthering the insistence that these mega-corps pretend to be something that they're not.

That being said, the people with the megaphones that constantly send emails about politics that somehow jump through five hoops to ensure every issue is directly tied to race should put their actions where their mouth is. If 1000 people give an ultimatum that they'll quit if something isn't done, maybe something will actually be done. If not, then the biggest propagators of political distractions are gone. And then those of us that are confused how politics (of a certain slant) became actively encouraged in the workplace can stop aggressively adding email filters for the latest cause of the week.
You’re really just implying that if the experience is worse and we are treated badly (aka no company paid off sites to Hawaii or seasons working remotely in Tahoe) the only people at Amazon are there because they aren’t capable of getting better offers.
Right angles with regard to the latitude-longitude coordinate system, but not with regard to the surface of the earth. Recall that all meridians intersect at the poles.
Thanks for posting this... I found his write up super interesting.
Also: People don't want Mozilla to send all DoH traffic to one company, so Mozilla has set a list of things they require a company to do so that they'll use their DoH servers automatically. Apparently, Comcast has agreed to said list. (We'll have to see if details on oversight and enforcement are published)
Android Emulator developer here.
In addition to what the other comments said about android emulation with hypervisors existing already for x86, we're also looking into the Hypervisor.framework API for Apple silicon.

It won't be a trivial task (hoping for pre-existing code to port over maybe?) but we have the other pieces like using Hypervisor.framework for x86 already, and being able to cross compile the other code for arm64, so that would be the only major task left.

On the subj. of better GPU support, it depends on what it's actually like using the drivers, but from previous experience with the GPUs and drivers shipped with macOS, there shouldn't be any special kind of trouble at least. We may have to use Metal if Apple also gets rid of opengl support on those new machines, but there are also existing translators for gles and vk to metal. The graphics hw itself, is actually the least of our worries due to how consistent the hardware is likely to be---we'd have to deal with a much fewer set of hw/driver quirks versus other host OS platforms.
Some of them dislike it intensely and don’t want to talk about it.

An extremely intelligent friend of mine is one of those people, and he has hang ups about it.

Note that there are good home schooling experiences as well, but there may be some selection bias regarding the stories we typically hear.
It is sad that my comment got down voted because I stated a fact. As others have mentioned, it doesn't work for Cloudflare.
Lol. There sure is. I'm also sure there is a way to do that without returning to one of the most-hated browser abuses of the 1990's.
I did not know about this! I wonder how it works with eGPU. I really want to load all my GPU power into certain apps only.
As long as the government has a hand in the pricing and product delivered, I consider it to be government (for the purposes of comparing it to a rent seeking ISP that has no oversight). If ISPs were operated and regulated like a utility like gas, electric, water, then it’s not important who owns what.

Couldn't these companies just sponsor the pilots to complete their pilot training program? If they really do need the pilots that badly, and the fake pilots demonstrate an interest in the job, why not just pay for their flight training directly and keep them grounded until that training is complete?
Honestly, I agree with you.

I believe we should have control over our own data, and it looks like Google is giving us that.

So I'm glad we can choose to enable/disable this ourselves.
While I don't disagree with the California law, it is reasonable for a company to hold copyright over it's materials and products. I'm not sure a California state law can just hand wave away a federal statue and break the copyright, presumably violating the contract the police agencies made in the past with these companies. If they do so, the companies will probably sue the state, and they may win a bunch of taxpayer money.

To me, it seems like the California agency is the one in the wrong here, they need to be using training courses that are able to comply with the above law, rather than just slapping up a "we cant comply sorry" message.
Yes farmers say it in speech. Pronounced ag. Like the first syllable of agriculture.

They're cheap! You can pretty easily get an olympus body for 2-300 bucks and a m43 lens also pretty cheap. The panasonic 25mm for example is usually around $100-150.

That all sounds big until you realize an a7 body is like minimum $1000.
They really got their ass handed to them by Sony, Fuji and Panasonic more than anything. The market for high quality interchangeable lens cameras hasn't gone anywhere and isn't going anywhere, but Sony and co really shook it up by modernizing it, and made a lot of Olympus tech obsolete. I'll never understand how Olympus decided to sell a camera with a sensor a fourth the size of an A7 at the same price.

That said, the market for point and shoots and other low end to medium end cameras got really eviscerated and Olympus couldn't find a way to compete at the higher end.
I think there might be a circuit split on this issue, but IMO merely divulging a combination or encryption key is not "testimonial" (and therefore not a 5th Amendment violation) except insofar as it admits knowledge of the combination or key itself. But if police can establish separately that you know it, then the "foregone conclusion" exception applies.

If you can point to specific precedent that would be helpful.
I dunno if I count, I have a RPi 3, original Droid (oh yeah, it's still working), an LG L9 and a HTC One M8. And I'm building kernels for them (mostly because I'm overclocking the shit out of everything and I have no choice but to build custom kernels).

32 bit on the phones, a real pain in the ass to cross compile, but it's a fun learning experience (I'm just a noob to any programming). I'd love to get paid for this tbh :D
I have one of planet's previous devices, the gemini. It's not very good. The software is some unpatched old android. And the available linux doesn't support very much.

The State of Moral Leadership in Business 2020
My strategy is to mentally amplify my decisions to the space of all the other people who might be in my same situation, facing the same decision. I ask myself if it would make the world better for all of those people make a given choice, and if so, I do it on the faith that they will.

It's not about whether or not they actually will; obviously my individual decision will rarely have any kind of causal impact on others' decisions. It's about having a mental tool for weighing collective action; circumventing the psychological effect of the knowledge that, yes, your individual drop in the bucket probably won't make a meaningful difference on its own. At an individual level that logic is sound, but at a collective level it makes it impossible to create change.

This strategy also works for voting, making donations, etc.
Such a great interview. It's fascinating to see how different education styles can have such a big impact.

While homeschooling isn't the right fit for everyone, I was homeschooled and it had a huge impact on me. My habits now for constant learning, working to complete tasks quickly, building projects with my hands (remodeling, woodworking, etc), and my desire to start companies all came from the time and energy that my parents put into crafting a unique education for me.

I'm so excited to see more and more parents considering homeschooling their kids.
Your first mistake would be using those platforms. You're just going to get spammed by Indian devs that didn't even read your post.
Assuming you are from the US (im not) and work at Google, i guess its that your ideas about the LGBT community might come from people who actively participate in identity politics. If they do, they have interest in not passing and constantly outing themselves to demonstrate their minority status, because this is what they think makes their voice 'valid'.

If you go trans because you suffer from gender dysphoria, your 'fix' is to become accepted as the gender you identify as.
To achieve it, you do HRT and a surgery (if you suffer from bottom dysphoria), and you present yourself as the gender you identify as, NOT as trans.
This goes so far that these people correct you if you call them trans - they are a "Man" or a "Woman" now.
If these people pass, they also pass as cis and are thus not easily recognizable as having undergone transition.

I'm active in a fan community of an Anime that features dissociation, so it accidentally attracts people with gender dysphoria.
I had affairs with some people from this community and, this way, also got into the gay/trans community, which has an significant overlap.
This is how i learned that identity politics is not representative of queer people.
Heck, even the CSD/gay pride with the rainbow flags isn't representative of the gay community - many sexually deviant people just want to live a normal life and not be associated with pants where your butt cheeks peek out.
I'm one of them.
the m.zuiko 45mm f/1.8 is a fantastic piece of glass. shame.
Again, these are allegations by the federal government and an informer for the FBI (presumably someone black mailed with the threat of unreasonably long prison sentence).

That does not make it untrue - but it's not like it's evidence weighed by a jury in a fair trial - it's very much one side of the story?
-Name, aesthetic and UI. Rangefinder cameras do have their purpose still - being able to see what is going on outside the frame is a great aid, as is its ease of focusing in low light.

And, to a lesser extent now that mirrorless cameras are a thing - their unobtrusiveness.

Give us an LG Gram 17 with a little more oomph and better speakers. The 17" 2560x1600 screen seems like it would be perfect for development - same resolution as the 13" MBP but a little more space to spread it out.

Maybe, but your reply only makes my argument stronger, that is that Canon is not the king anymore, as it used to be for DSLRs.
But a lot of people who self-identify as being serious about photography will stigmatize you for the gear you're using.
>The very root comment you're currently arguing against was made by such a person. We're inside that comment thread...

Did you make the original statement? I'm confused. You said that people shouldn't be an armchair analyst in discussions. Then you proceeded to do it. I then called you out on it.
Of course. It’s the same code words people use when they describe neighborhood schools while avoiding race.

“Wouldn’t consider Amazon when planning a move” seems to have the same tenor as “Wouldn’t consider moving to a less white neighborhood”
Oddly, lots of this stuff just seems wrong. On Android, so maybe that's the discrepancy, but he's going on about GPS pinging while the app doesn't even request the Location permission.
It also managed to include 5 Norwegian cities, but missed the largest city because it was in the same square as Berlin.
No, it's exclusively the lack of profesionalism. Business is business. I don't want a "genuine" sales/marketing person. Your product is not my baby.

The right way to do this is to 1) sponsor the event and then 2) send out a professional email/flyer/whatever pitching the product through the official mechanism.

It matters if you choose your audience. I agree, if you make a statement in public, say on twitter, then you've chosen the audience. The world.
I suspect he could make it faster using the newer neural network instructions like https://iq.opengenus.org/avx512-vnni/ which pack four multiply and add ops into parallel instead of two that he used.
Making the association to K-12 public education, taxpaying parents cannot easily access all of the curriculum their student has/is/will engage with in a K-12 public school. The legislation (if any) and auditing process varies by state, but from a business perspective, K-12 publishers do not want to be on the hook for any real-life outcomes. Their customer is the school/school district, not their constituents. Being able to see everything would open the cultural (relevance) and academic (rigor) floodgates of advocacy.

In addition to protecting the business model, I imagine these training companies do not want their educative materials associated with real-world police misconduct, or subject to any standards around what should or should not be taught.
Panasonic pushed a ton of features to the G9 (my current top-end camera) that make it very competitive with the GH5 for video, so they seem to have gotten some religion on that front.

Five year old cameras are likely past the cliff of "too slow "for a lot of feature improvement, though. I have a GH3, a G7, and a GH4, and they all have the same sensor but even the UI on the GH3 runs slower and chunkier. Trying to wedge more stuff into it seems like a bad time.
A better coverage of this news and the initial report presented by the aviation minister for the PIA accident can be found here:

https://www.dawn.com/news/1564911/initial-report-finds-human...
Probably the Panasonic GH Series.
Of course, and that wouldn't change. But why on earth does that preclude the idea of better feedback for the case where the plane wont even try to extend the gear even if you were to lower the lever?
I also use OneDrive and sometimes when it updates you need to restart iPhone to make the Camera upload to work again.
There are still several companies making lenses for the system.

For example, Cosina has a lineup of high quality manual-focus M43 lenses such as the recently released Voigtlander Nokton 60mm f/0.95: http://www.cosina.co.jp/seihin/voigtlander/mft-mount/mft-60m...
Sure. Still saves space. Also closes over the envelope of their legal exposure.
To me, the big monoculture risk is Sony's image-sensor fab. As I understand it, Sony, Fuji, Nikon and many others all rely upon the output of one company's manufacturing process.

There's a good reason for it -- they appear to make the very best sensors (edit: in terms of dynamic range and noise) in the commercial-camera market. Canon makes their own sensors, which are good in absolute but not relative terms, which appears to hold them back in performance. I don't know if it is patent-related or process-related.

While I use Canon imaging systems, I don't see the choice to use other brands as better or worse. Each manufacturer's line has strengths and weaknesses; you pick the best tool for the job. Essentially every camera and optical system on the market, in absolute terms, is a wonderful instrument for imaging.

This reality is intensely freeing -- it means you can focus more on the image and less on the instrumentation. "f/8 and be there" is still wonderful advice.
They take pretty standard batteries, and are part of an open standard on lenses. I am not upset at my recent purchase.
Is homeschooling actually better once you control for the types of people who are capable of doing it? I would imagine a good chunk of people who homeschool their children are incredibly active in their children's education, by definition. These children I would argue, would be fine with or without homeschooling.

Homeschooling also just seems unsustainable. Modern society generally requires two parents to be working. Can an average family afford to homeschool their children? At least in the USA, most indications give a pretty firm "no."

That being said, I really enjoyed this article. People definitely should have more control over their education and how it relates to their own children's needs.
A good way to define metropolitan areas is by commuter patterns. If a certain percentage of residents of a county or town all commute to the same adjoining larger town, then that gets counted.
Maybe that's how watermelons grew in that specific yearly harvest? Or maybe he saw one like that in his lifetime and painted it like that since it's more aesthetically pleasing with the swirls?

> Free speech means you dont get put into jail, or worse, for the speech you exercise. The right to free speech does not mean you are entitled to no negative consequences for your speech in the private domain.

I'm not sure where you came up with that definition. Free speech as whole is much more expansive than that. From Wikipedia: "Freedom of speech is a principle that supports the freedom of an individual or a community to articulate their opinions and ideas without fear of retaliation, censorship, or legal sanction."

Free speech as legal concept means exactly what you claim (via the 1st amendment). But there's a broader concept to consider as well. Just because the government isn't arresting you doesn't mean your speech can't be restricted. People in the private domain targeting you for you speech can lead to an effective restriction on your speech.

Now, I'm in agreement with you that the NYT case isn't really a a great example for this at all, since Tom Cotton has many other avenues for exercising his right to speech, and it was NYT who faced the backlash, not him. But I'd say the David Shor[0] case, and Justine Sacco case[1] is great example for showing the effect private actions can have on restricting speech. It's likely that both these individuals will be much more careful when they speak in the public sphere again.

My point isn't that we should make this sort of "harassment" (for lack of a better word) illegal. That would just be restricting the free speech of the critics instead. But we should recognize that restrictions on free speech come from more than just the government, and work to build a culture where these kinds of restrictions are more rare. That would have the added benefit of strengthening public discourse and debate.

My three primary cameras right now are a LUMIX G9 (newest, the recent firmware upgrades put it on par with the GH5 for what I do and it has a full-size HDMI port which matters a lot), a GH4, and a G7; my off-cam/desk webcam is now my oldest camera, which is a GH3. The latter three all have the same sensor but the GH3 is a lot slower and has worse dynamic range and internal processing.
You can also disable the collection of data completely, or delete the data automatically after 3 months. The later is what I now do.

People freak out about what they see in the Google profile, but you have to give them credit for being transparent about it, even before GDPR came into effect.
My expensive niche workstation = raspberry pi, pick your ARMv flavor.

Most tools are adopting Linux remote build + remote debug, wherein you ssh in and hook into the compiler and debugger all from the comfort of CLion/VS2019/VSCode.

If they don't have remote build, there is often building locally, with a copy of the root filesystem, using a cross-compiler, then remote deploy + debug. The most annoying part of this process is fixing all the symlinks not supported on NTFS.

Expensiver niche workstation = $500 dev kit directly representative of your target, but with everything exposed.

The interesting thing is now we need ARM -> x86 remote build or cross-compilation tools, of which I know of none.
Feedback and comments are always welcome, at least I welcome them :D.

I can't speak for all government agencies, but generally there is an internal CA for hosting internal sites. I remember reading a comment from the Federal PKI guide that these sorts of infrastructure goes back to before 2004.

"Prior to 2004, some agencies had already deployed and invested in their own PKI and CAs. Some of these agencies opted out of migrating to the SSP Program and continued to manage their existing infrastructures. These Federal Agencies Legacy operate one or more CAs that are cross-certified with a Federal PKI Trust Infrastructure CA."

Here's a very short list of public CA certificates from Treasury and it lists out public key certificate for many other agencies as well.

Are there non-PEO solutions to alleviate the administrative burden of having employees in many states? Keeping up with employment and tax compliance requirements is not trivial. Most HR systems (for smaller companies) I’ve seen still require the employer to register with each state. Might be a good startup idea.
