Normally-abled person, with a hearing impaired family member checking in.

My secret weapon in French class in school was a tape deck with treble/bass controls. A big chunk of the work was transcription of recorded material. Rewind, play, pause, play, rewind, fiddling with the nobs to deal with the static on my copy of a copy of the tape. You can't do that with live content. You can with prerecorded materials (IF the designers think of it).

There are a lot of videos with people who take too long to get to the point and I have to increase the speed to stay focused. Slowing things down for any sensory impairment I presume helps other people.

When my family member was a kid he did not want to use the audio assistive devices in classes because he was self-conscious. It's a production. There are resources to be 'checked out' and 'checked in' every day. I don't think I'd be as comfortable using most of the tools I use if I had an audience.

He spends a lot of time online because -everybody- suffers to an extent from his limitation online. The cocktail party effect, the ability to filter one conversation out from many, fails for everyone, not just people with hearing aids. So people have to learn not to talk over each other if they want anyone to hear them, which means his listening comprehension goes way up.
As we are discovering with SARS-CoV-2 being transmitted in aerosol form, the limits of masks and social distancing become apparent. If everyone wears a mask (cloth, not n95 grade), they emit X number of aerosols. So the longer you're around someone, even masked, the higher the risk. And aerosols can linger for quite a long time in an enclosed setting.

Social distancing can help, but limiting how many people are emitting, but neither it nor masks are adequate if a significant portion of the population you're around is shedding virus.
Also Waco.

I was being a little bit tongue in cheek, and you're right that you can fly under the radar, but it's also possible to draw the interest of the feds, and then they will fuck you up.

I spent a fair amount of my summers as a kid in a buddhist community hidden away in the woods. I think they're all above-board now, but at the time they were always fighting w/ the govt, trying to hide illegal busses & cabins out of site in the trees and stuff like that.
Greeks probably would not pull a Trojan horse into their own city either, despite making one for Troy.
Bingo. Twitter is a platform for intimidation.
Is there a point of diminishing returns on experience for security? Two might be enough.
Another interesting metric to try to capture would be issue resolution. A lot of time you might have a very decisive issue in Github where the developers basically piss off a lot of their users. I don't think that's generally a good metric to promote as a top level metric obviously, but it would be interesting way to slice and dice projects.

But that analysis could look for thumbs up or fireworks or other Happy reaction emoji vs negative feedback emoji tied to the replies of people on the team.

Yes, this goes back to criticizing open source maintainers for not doing what everyone wants - so perhaps that kind of metric would only be enabled on sponsor backed repos.
It appears that there is a higher than usual proportion of negatively scored comments ITT. I think that might say something about the so called silent majority - the very people who are [rightly] unwilling to comment publicly because of the cancel culture highlighted in the article.

Those people are here, anonymous votes give them a voice that they are socially being denied.
Sure, they probably do. But more problematic is what does an average person think when they read "Full Self-Driving Capability" and "Includes the Full Self Driving Computer"?
so how we do build this into a ROM to play? Or that a question that can't be answered to due to "reasons" (piracy, legal, etc)
There has to be a million places people can go to fight about Barri Weis on the internet. Does it need to happen here too?

I'm familiar with critical theory. My question was not "what is critical theory" but why are the underlying philosophical ideas of western civilization? (I will say I was pleasantly surprised with the evenhandedness of that source, disregarding the last two paragraphs)

Like, Christianity is one of the underlying philosophical ideas of western civilization, and enlightenment era philosophers were quite mixed on it, so I'm unclear what the underlying concerns are here.
Then he must be apoplectic about the new bfloat16 format - only 7 bit mantissa - what the heck

It's totally possible that scientists in the future will laugh at our extremely wide 16-bit neural networks. Computation at the biological synapse level is considered to have an accuracy of 1 to 3 bits only - opinions differ.
Sorry, no. Systemd doesn't add anything for service management that didn't previously exist elsewhere other than the unit file syntax for service definition. What it did is pull as many disparate aspects of "how do you run a thing" under its umbrella as it could, so it controls as much of the environment as possible and doesn't have to care about playing nice with anyone else. That's the general approach.

It's a logical fallacy to assume, because systemd was the thing that came along and resulted in the problems in sysv being fixed, that systemd's approach or implementation were necessary, desirable, or the best option available.
I would love to know how to do it with Linux/Ubuntu. I tried with OBS and always run into a bunch of issues when trying to create something beyond a basic scene.
I don't think it is a racist view. It is more of an anti-communist view. Americans were not a big fan white communists in Hungary, Poland, Russia, etc when the Soviet Union was a thing.
This comment seems to pretty much ignore the lingua franca of American drivers. Transposing terminology only works to the extent that the public actually understands how an airplane autopilot functions, which they don't. Plenty of people refer to their front seat passenger as a co-pilot or navigator, but I've never heard anyone call their passenger "co-driver".
HPC on macOS? Using Metal instead of CUDA/OpenCL? Sounds extremely rare.
> are particularly bad if you are conservative or have gender critical ideas

I downvoted you because this is not true. Watch YT logged out and you will discover it quickly starts recommending far right videos, recommending more extreme videos as you watch them.

As for "gender critical" and your following paragraph, people aren't being banned for simply misgendering people. It's intentional misgendering from hateful people, often as a final straw after many similar hateful actions.
"have the hardware needed" ... being legalese/marketing speak for "the hardware may indeed be capable, but the software is not (yet)". So they're gearing people to expect the full self-driving capability, _eventually_. Shady to say the least.
Do you have a plan to expand to other projects, not related to JS?
> America enacted a trade embargo for ~20 years and tried to hamstring their economy through agencies like the IMF

Maybe you're right, I'm definitely not an expert on the history. How impactful was that?

The impression I got from conversations I had when I visited Vietnam years ago is that it was a domestic-led reform, in response to the centrally-planned, non-ownership, non-market economy not working out.

> Vietnam's reforms are to create the materialist basis for Communism

That's the hype, but what does that really mean if in practice you've changed to a market economy?
This is possible, although hard, and is being done at a number of businesses. Most of my experience in this space revolves around working with this business in a consulting capacity a few years ago - https://truebearinginsights.com. The short answer is that it gets easier when you focus on particular types and sizes of vessels.

Ships are classified into size-based categories. For example, a "capesize" vessel is a massive dry bulk ship of 100,000+ ton (and often much bigger) carrying capacity. Since they are the largest ships, there are many fewer of them in the world, they are size-restricted on the ports that they can visit, it is only economical to carry particular types of cargo in these volumes, and because of the volumes, the ports often sit close to the source.

Now, when you collect AIS data for capesize ships, you'll see trade lanes from Australia to China - these mostly carry Iron Ore from Australia's Pilbara region to steel/etc. factories in China (companies like Rio Tinto, BHP and FMG focus on this space). You'll see a similar trade lane from Brazil to China - this is also iron ore and led by a company called Vale. By analysing the trade lanes, cross referencing that with the raw materials that come out of each company, using Google Maps to investigate what the ships might be loading, etc., you can infer what the vessels carry and begin to extrapolate these routes. The same applies for many types of commodities, and is not limited to dry bulk.

It can be easier in some cases to figure out the trading routes for ocean transportation of containers because the carriers often publish their routes in advance, but this obviously doesn't apply to the rail and trucking side of things, containers are often transported a fair distance before reaching a port, and containers will often be trans-shipped (i.e., transferred from one vessel to another at a hub port like Singapore), so it will be difficult to find the root nodes here.

As you go down in vessel size, it gets harder. A small ship like a "handysize" could carry anything really - grain, potash, windmills, yachts (yachts often aren't insurable when crossing the open ocean so the owners typically have them shipped around the world instead). And there are tons of them. And their cargoes might be shipped long distances to the port. You can still find these nodes of course, but it will take a lot more work.
You're of course right that it's hard to know (but not impossible to know) the permanent effects of a novel virus (because the damage could be like other diseases/conditions we've seen).

Brain damage is just as concerning to me as lung damage. The lung damage at least seems to be more likely to be long-term rather than permanent (brain damage seems less clear). I've seen some articles also taking about kidney and heart damage.

Nice, thanks for the pointer!
While the average non-Tesla owner might be confused on phrases like “autopilot”, any Tesla owner is very aware of its capabilities and shortcomings.

When you first purchase your Tesla and are beginning the setup process, you’re presented with multiple warning screens like this: https://boygeniusreport.files.wordpress.com/2016/07/autostee...

That’s an old image: I couldn’t find the current warning screen on Google Images, but it’s even more stark and serious about the driver’s role w.r.t. autopilot.
> It doesn't matter if they said it would take you to the moon and back. If you test drive or buy it and don't like it then just return it: no harm done.

Under German law it seems that it does, in fact, matter.
Why not parse the YAML- manipulate it like you would any other data structure in your language of choice, and then generate the YAML from there?

I don't understand why you would want to directly edit markup language without parsing it. YAML's goal is to represent a data structure so that a human can interact with it. It accomplishes that goal well. If you want to edit that data structure programmatically- no markup language makes sense to use, represent the data structure using your programming language's native representations.
so every 3 months you collect 200GB of data... do you need to keep that data around forever or like 12 months you'll have around 800 GB per customer... Maybe ec2 api to spin up specific customer db then... seems worth it... but also maybe look into ways to reduce that data size...
Let's be honest. You don't care about bullying because you agree ideologically with the bullies, and want to silence the bullied, because you don't agree with them.

Whether it's intimidation, firing, deplatforming, banning, whatever - you are ok with all of this because for you, it's all just the means to an end that you agree with.
yes. mapping is the trivial part. The query optimization is the more important part IMO so I like doing it manually.

I guess my problem isn't with ORM's, its with ORM SQL generation.
Remove autopilot from a Model S and it's still a hell of a car. Just from a pure driving dynamics a mechanical engine can't touch a VFD in terms of power dynamics and range(which is also why Diesel-Electric locomotives use them).

Don't disagree on the autopilot, the killer app has always been for me stop-and-go traffic where the speeds are lower and the sensors need to do less vision and more radar based.
I'm using my phone, there's an app that lets you stream from your phone's camera... which is usually better than the dedicated web cams.
> Reddit recently banned a ton of subreddits that are simply critical of the idea that men can literally become women

This is a deeply misleading way of understanding this controversy. You can be "simply critical" of the way we define gender or of reddit's policies without being an asshole. "Inclusive" behavior consists, essentially, of just not being an asshole.

If someone tells you they're a woman and you don't agree, that's fine. Let them be them and you be you. Complain if you're actually harmed, or if you think someone needs to be defended. If you start a subreddit dedicated to the notion that trans women aren't "really women" and share a bunch of memes making fun of them, that's crossing the line. That's who got banned.

... Edit ...

Good grief. I started looking up the rest of your evidence (I only knew the trans hate subreddits thing a priori), and it's all equivalently spun. You're are NOT arguing in good faith here:

1. Hammer_Of_Glass was not "banned" from twitter. The account was locked for a few hours, then released when reviewed. It was clearly a mistake.

2. /r/PCOS went through a mod shakeup due to anti-trans comments getting out of hand on a forum that was supposed to be about medical issues and social support for sufferers. The community as a whole seems to be entirely behind the new focus.

3. Meghan Murphy was banned from twitter after a long history of anti-trans activism (including two instances of doxxing otherwise-anonymous trans twitter users), not one tweet and certainly not one pronoun.

4. I don't know what you're talking about with Youtube. The amount of anti-trans hate on that site is staggering.
You don't want it to be completely sealed, because it will eventually warm up and boil. If it does so in a sealed container, PV=nRT implies that your container will either need to expand dramatically or handle a lot of pressure. This can be....unexpectedly invigorating, especially if the container is strong.

Instead, it's common to have a pressure-relief valve, often coupled with a gas sensor to make sure everything remains safe.
Verizon’s alternative to layoffs: Retraining 20k workers
I would think it's even worse than that. Do the same teaching aids/rhetorical devices work out for face-to-face, small group, auditorium, remote people? It doesn't seem like they do. I've cringed through a few different videos of someone who developed a presentation for 50 people and then was blindsided by a room full of 400 and their material didn't quite work.

Your presentation is deeply affected by the kind of audience you're aimed at.
Never thought a lazy appropriation of my Soviet high school history textbook can be labeled a "philosophical idea".
This is an absolute abuse of language. Can I say that my backyard nuclear fusion reactors are held back by regulatory approval? Surely when I finally get around to building a working one, I will have to jump through those pesky hoops.
> That the German Court felt pressured by the Auto Lobby to take this decision?

Probably that + the constituents. When a very large chunk of your constituents are employed by local car manufacturing companies, letting those companies fail and lose to a foreign competitor not only loses money for those companies, it also puts a threat of unemployment on your voting population.

Lobbying from local car companies + your voting population's employment dependent on success of those local car companies is a very strong combination.

EDIT: to clarify, I am aware that judges in Germany are not elected, I wasn't implying that judges would support the ban just get re-elected. I meant it to say that the judge could see it not only as some lobbying effort, but also as a move to protect interests of the working people they are serving.
That's peanuts compared to a similarly popular sitcom. I honestly expected Jamie and Adam to each have net worth in the $50-100MM range because of the syndication potential of that show, which will absolutely be on TV in 30 years. Being engineering types, maybe they all didn't really understand how to negotiate.

Given the net worth of Grant, Tori and Kari, I'm guessing they didn't have huge salaries from the show, maybe $200k/yr on average.
It about trying to survive in a city in a fictional country during a war (similar to the Yugoslav Wars). So I think that krieg is appropriate but I haven't taken German in nearly 30 years so I'm rusty!
Let’s keep this chain going: Your viewpoint on this company using it is what shows a massive misunderstanding of the market.

Clearly, people are using it successfully and enjoying it (or other similar products). Just because you don’t like it it doesn’t change the reality of the situation.
Aren't the ads largely targeted to non-owners? Even if I agreed with your point, I just don't see how it's relevant.
If anything this clarifies to people who thought that teslas could self-drive that this is incorrect and that their ads are deceptive. Tesla is pretty well known now so it's not exactly a positive look. Someone who planned to buy a Tesla based on its marketing might now consider one of the other EVs on the horizon.
I'm using OBS on Ubuntu to stream my maker sessions on https://youtube.com/c/StavrosKorokithakis/ and everything works fine, what problems are you having?

actually not just tiktok, others like wechat, taobao, all the eCommerce, messengers, USA is behind China by a few years these days.

in the early days they cloned and studied, now they actually took over and Facebook etc barely can even catch up

Some people legitimately believe that Capitalism is the only way for humanity to prosper, and they have the sacred job of protecting it from other systems of economy.

New EU Regulation Gives App Store Developers More Protection and Transparency
I keep falling for these clickbait titles in the hopes I will find a fair argument. However, the moment I realize the article is trying to sell me a product based around an argument, I lose faith on the perspective of the writer.

If the title was something more honest such as “How product X solves for Y” I’d feel more compelled to put trust on the analysis being objective.
I understand this. And honestly, a part of me believes in several years we (my wife and I) will look back on this time with fondness as we've never been able to spend this much time together as a family unit.

But what I meant in the OP was how - across 3 months - school was put on hold even though my kids would dial in a few times a week. I could tell some of the teachers _wanted_ to teach but I am certain there were orders from above not to. If there's one child who didn't have access to a laptop or internet across the district, I think the idea was that no one would be taught material as a result. I don't have the right answers - I just know that if that's what school looks like in the Fall, it will only deepen class divides where the well-off pay for private tutors, and the rest of the kids simply drift.

I have one friend who has a daughter here who - across 3 months - only had 2 sessions with her teacher. That was it. Effectively, school _was_ cancelled, if not officially.

Hence why the idea of just lobbing off a whole year's worth sounded intriguing.

But at the end of the day this is really all about economics and why there's a push to get kids back in school no matter what, plan or no plan. The economy won't start to heal until kids are under the in-person daycare of schools. It's just a fact.

This is all going to be very messy for at least another 12-18 months.

EDIT:
My dad taught for over 50 years at the high school level. He is now 81. He taught well into his 70s. I imagine there are quite a few teachers who are terrified of being forced back to work in-person unless significant changes are made, and even then... This may force a lot of early retirements.
Socialism led to the USSR and modern China, the USA's greatest rivals, due to their combination of large population, non-trivial wealth, and expansionist tendencies.
Hence, the association of "socialism" with USA's enemies.
Multiplication doesn't lose precision, does it?

Addition has problems where x is close to negative y, sure.
>If your container is well sealed and sufficiently strong

Trying to contain it in a strong sealed container is a very very bad idea. That's a bomb, even if it's freezing out.

You store it in dewers that allow it to slowly boil off, and replenish it as needed.
It sounds like you are immediately suspect of anyone who has had success and thus become "powerful" (successful). The signatories of the Harper's letter, such as Noam Chomsky, Thomas Chatterton Williams, and Salman Rushdie, are successful because they have had long careers and widespread general praise for their work. Smaller, newer writers aren't "marginalized", they are early in their careers and need to work for a long time to break out in a cutthroat industry.

The signatories of the letter make the person who disagrees with the current orthodoxy, and still supports free speech, feel safer and in good company for doing so. Signing a letter is quick and doesn't stop them from also helping solve all the other issues they believe in - people can do two (or more!) things at once.

I am a lot less interested in political statements from people - you, me, the guy down the street - who are not luminaries in their respected fields. I am much more interested when such a diverse and respected group of people have those views.

As a footnote, you say "might have supported it". Imagine hypothetically that it was published in some underground zine signed by unknown writers. What in the letter did you disagree with? It's a brief letter, there should be something in there that is clearly risque if you "might" support it?
It does in Germany (as the ruling in question indicates). False advertising here is very much considered 'harm done' and no way to do business. Lying to the customer until she takes the product out of the box is in no way, shape or form how you operate in this country. (well I guess it was for wirecard which is embarassing enough)

I do not want to live somewhere where I have to order ten things, three are fake, three I have to sent back, another few break and the last thing works.
