If a group of bully comes to you and tell you that you can for sure express yourself, but “there will be consequences” wink wink, I would argue that you’re not actually free to express yourself. It’s creating an environment of fear were people either self censor themselves or are subjected to a punishment by the mob.
All of Apple's tweets are gone

So, the first snow stress also happens with after Quarantine driving. I wonder if it will follow the same comfort curve?
It's not just that they're looked at as less than, it's that they have to be treated as such. I'm on a sort of "party" committee at my work (I know, I know) and we are explicitly told we have to go out of our way to ensure no one on contract gets invited to the events, receives any of the (shitty) gifts that management hands out etc. My understanding of the rule is pretty bad but I've been told it's because they can potentially make a case in court that they were treated as full employees and deserve the same benefits, protections etc.
I do not think that a 3rd party tweet scheduling program has been hacked, because the tweets say they have been sent by “Twitter Web App”. Maybe the new feature on twitter.com to schedule tweets has a security vulnerability?
We should each be able to disagree, and even consider the views of the other to have harmful consequences, and still live contentedly.

Right, an inconsequential amount.
Did you notice that you moved the goalposts?

You went from, "People who try to improve themselves are safe" to, "We can't have sympathy for rich people." But it doesn't just happen to rich people. And when you're presented with an example of that, you'll find another excuse.

The honest thing to do is to go back to your original statement and say, "I was wrong." To demonstrate in yourself the very open mindedness and willingness to rethink your beliefs that you think should be protection against shifts in political culture. (But which aren't.)

Are you going to be honest? Or will you continue moving goalposts to justify your wrong claim?
I’m sure they’ll hold onto them, considering they ran a scam on one of the world’s richest people who made the NSA’s favorite operating system.

As of your post it would seem to be a 20-30 minute response time. Happening fast it seems.
I still don't get night driving + rural.

In the city, there is a lot of light. It's not really ever truly dark. In rural areas, on a dark night, especially with no moon, your eyes can adjust to the darkness...

I tend to turn all light off inside my car when driving rural at night.

That won't work though, if you have a massive, huge LCD with backlight constantly throwing white light at your eyes. Worse is if it 'shuts off', then you do something (change radio channel/interact) and blinding light smashes into your eyes.

An OLED would help. A 'red only' theme would be even better. Smaller displays better beyond that.

I get that Tesla rethought auto design. That's cool. But it seems like it only rethought from a very urban, perfect-eyesight, 20 something perspective.
There are services that are able to obfuscate a transfer of BTC, which really only makes it very laborious to trace the money.
I think generalizing all ages is a bad idea. In fact kids grow and learn so fast that almost each age needs a different approach, and I don't mean a 5% difference.

Another thing is that we tend to underestimate how much kids learn 'between the lines'. What is acceptable, what is valuable.

Lastly I'm convinced individualised learning is a fallacy. We technocrats like personalisation, but in my opinion that is only good for adults.

I want to recommend books and talks from Katharine Birbalsingh for an entirely contrarian, but very successful take on elevating underprivileged children.
The ongoing discussion is https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23851275
But the problem with that is the people with the privilege are blind to what the problems are.

It took a simple conversation with someone of color for me to even begin to understand this. The conversation was something like:

"The 15th time the guy behind the deli counter calls over your head to the person behind you in line instead of you really understand that you are not only different, but invisible to people because of your difference."

Sure, we've all had something happen a few times. But this is an everyday occurrence to people who aren't a part of the dominant group.

To me, a WASP, I couldn't even fathom that ever happening. It's just not part of my lived experience. How could someone just skip over the next person in line? It doesn't make any sense.

But, that was, and is, my privilege blinding me to the daily plight of so many people.

So yes...we should work to "raise everyone up", but simply being the person with privilege blinds us to the problem entirely.
One thing we know now is that Twitter can take tweets down really quickly if they want.
They do often supply some coins to themselves to create the illusion that there is activity.
How many people have died because of that lax safety attitude? Less than any other power source. To call it waste is even debatable as it is still usable for energy production, it just costs too much right now. In the future, this may change. Low level and high level nuclear waste are not the same and the high level waste, as done in some countries at cost, could be reprocessed for fuel.

In addition, what is the result of 3 mile island? The word disaster comes with a lot of baggage that I would debate doesn't apply, it was an accident without any fatalities. But... it was a set of lessons and they have been applied throughout the industry. That is forgotten. It did have a huge impact to the industry and was a disaster as far as perception goes. Chernobyl was a case of lets turn this reactor to 11 and disable the safeties. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Fukushima should be remembered. It was when we knew better and ignored expert advice. This seems to be the theme of the 21st century though. But even with Fukushima, it took one of the largest earth quakes ever, causing a very very large tsunami, and then it was still working.... but because the experts where ignored and the wall was shorter than it should have been and, most importantly, the generators were not on higher ground it lost power and was able to melt down. Even with that though, only one person has died, and two had radiation burns, plus there is several km by several km of land that cannot be used right now. The sad part is that this was the focus and not the thousands displaced by the tsunami.

Solar and Window are doing great, they should be used as much as they can be. Hydro is largely tapped out and small systems are not as effective compared to their impact; even with the fact that rivers form lakes and move on their own. So that leaves sources like nuclear, tidal, and a few others related to the earths energy(whether kinetic or heat) Nuclear has the benefit of having the smallest footprint too.

Google has to step up it's game because their platforms aren't safe anymore.
Partially because it's twitter, I'm completely unable to determine if the responses are hacked accounts, joking, or actual people that sent money.

I suspect the actual numbers and percentages of the whole of each would be surprising...
I know that as somebody who isn't a scientist, i'm not the intended audience for pre-print articles in scientific journals.

That's a tautology. If I support freedom of expression, and believe it is in the say, national interest, then by definition I am against those who oppose freedom of expression.

Where the line ends is when they stop merely saying "we are against freedom of expression" and actually harm people expressing themselves. We've definitely crossed that.

I was saying 1M between UK, Germany and France. Most likely today there are fewer, because of Covid19. Brexit hasn't lead to repatriations, so no large change caused by it I believe.
I believe I read something (trying to find it) about Twitter internally having additional protections on Trump's account. Only a handful of people within Twitter can touch it.
Due to a lack of imagination and people who don't host interviews on a regular basis so they never put in the effort to get good at it. When I conduct a technical interview we are going to end up doing some stuff you do in your 9-5. And you probably won't even notice it. And if there is a budget available for it, I'm going to pay you to do a very small coding assignment. A few hours. Almost exactly your 9-5.
Uber has been hacked as well. At this point, they can get any high profile Twitter user.

What's the upper bound on mortality attributable to lockdown and an environment of unprecedented fear and hysteria?

Maybe start with the impending global food shortage.

And the fact that we've went backwards on poverty, went backwards on vaccines for everything that isn't SARS-2, etc.

And the fact that the physiological and psychological state lockdown puts us in, almost certainly makes us more likely to die of COVID-19 if we get it?

I don't carelessly accept the upper bound. I rationally set an upper bound and ask myself, "is this worst case something I would rather live with, rather than the worst case of the lockdown scenario?".

Then I compared the average cases.

What I found was that the worst case scenario of lockdown is worse, and the average-case scenario is worse. Only the true "best-case scenario" of "we magically get a vaccine in a month, the vaccine works for everyone without any significant repercussions and we manufacture 8 billion doses and the entire globe voluntarily accepts it" is better (although the corresponding best-case scenario of no lockdown is also similarly absurdly positive so best-case scenarios are useless anyway).

--

Tell me, what is the logic in practicing "indefinite postponement" (containment), which accrues on-going, non-linear costs (as well as the obvious linear component), and only ends when we develop a game-changer treatment or vaccine, which is a temporally-unbounded future event.

When has it ever been good public policy to hinge everything upon an uncertain future event? That's just bad strategy.

To use a starcraft analogy, we're trying to sit on one base and tech up while a skilled opponent would be on 4 bases, have a strong econ and then out-tech us anyway since they, you know, actually have a sustainable, functioning economy.
I'm amazed that accounts at the scale of Elon and Bill Gates weren't locked down within moments. They've been reposting these for at least 30 minutes.

Filtering on anxiety levels doesn't mean you're selecting for confidence generally, it means you are selecting for people who are not anxious in the interview. If you practice for 1-4 hours per day for a month or more (as I did last time I was on the market) on a particular skill (like tech interviews), you become more confident at that thing. Grinding tech interview practice works, which is not great, for either side, because it's mostly orthogonal to actual job performance.
I think we're sticking on our interpretations of properties A, B, and C. I and the above poster are using them to refer to views fundamental to the political goals of the identity X. So for example saying "if you don't vote for Biden you're not really Black" is saying if you identify as Black, you must have the property of supporting Biden as presumably he is the best candidate for the Black community.

You appear to be using property to refer to other identities. So someone who identifies as both Black and a woman would thus be a black person with with the property of woman. Of course proponents of identity politics want as many people of their identity on their side as possible, regardless of what else they may identify as, but you have to ask what being on their side means. Just saying X should have it better hides an implicit question: what does it mean for X to have it better? Many proponents of identity politics simply assume that everyone of identity X will agree on what they collectively want, but this is to assume they share the same properties A, B, and C which make them want these things.
> Sure it's a much better deal than the F-35

Yucca Mountain was bulldozed by the anti-nuclear faction. Hooray?

Unquestionably.

> Pointing out that other stuff is "just as bad as nuclear" is not helping the argument for nuclear.

That's generally how decision-making works: you weigh the tradeoffs and make the best choice.

Well, that's how it's supposed to work, I suppose. If you refuse, well, nature just punishes you accordingly. In this case, we get an atmosphere full of CO2. Hooray?

Also the huge amount of flagrant violations. At least one a week there's one driver that treats a red light like a stop sign.
That’s a miscategorization. Cancel culture isn’t about being free to criticize others (that’s fair), but that’s not what they want. They want to control other people by means of intimidation (force people out for having a difference in opinion) via economic peer pressure.

It’s not about being able to say “eating meat is cruel, so since you don’t denounce eating meat you are cruel” it’s you don’t denounce meat eating therefore you are evil and your peers and employers should ostracize you else the are complicit in your cruel behavior too, we demand they see it fit to remove your means of perpetuating that cruelty”.
> It's safe for them to express their opinions, because the source of their opinions is whatever it's currently acceptable to believe.

The premise is not sound. Not everyone who has a conventionally accepted idea has that idea because the idea is conventionally accepted. It could be, for example, that there is some other cause that leads to me having an idea and that idea being conventionally accepted.

As an obvious example, I don’t think that one plus one equals two because I observe that to be conventionally accepted. I have good reasons to think that’s true even if most people disagreed. And I certainly wouldn’t think anyone who disagrees was being discriminated against for having unconventional ideas.
rumors say the hacker got access to an internal (used by employees) admin panel...
Seems like a very paltry sum compared to other ways they could have capitalized on market-moving tweets.
Oh, didn't understood you this way.

This Canadian company got bought by Areva.
I can spend a lot of cash up front on Exchange and Office, then deal with constantly patching them. Or I can spend only per seat/per month and the patching is automatic and the service is likely more reliable. After 3 years the costs are almost the same. Its not like my private environment is so much more stable than an MS datacenter. And the software has the same amount of bugs.
> You can NOT replace nuclear with wind and solar. Because you can't choose when the sun shines and when the wind blows.

That's what grid energy storage is for. Traditionally this is often implemented with hydro (sometimes even by pumping water up to a high-altitude reservoir during periods of excess power generation). There are many more exotic methods as well - e.g. the crane that stacks concrete blocks, or the train with concrete that goes up and down the hill.

More recently, grid-scale batteries are being installed at increasing scale (e.g. Tesla's Megapack), and the cost efficiency of that solution seems to be improving rapidly.
The responses to that tweet say it is fake and the real number is only 6BTC (~$50k).
The UBports version of the Pinephone isn’t just rough around the edges – that suggests that it will be a smoother experience one day, but it still needs work. Rather, my impression is that UBports is a dead end technologically. It is based inextricably on some 2014-era Ubuntu-specific software that even Ubuntu moved away from. The experience of SSHing into it, tweaking system configuration, etc. doesn’t feel like the "ordinary desktop Linux on your phone" that everyone was hoping for.

As a former Nokia N900 owner, I was solidly disappointed by UBports. I suspect that, for example, the PureOS port to the Pinephone may eventually give users like myself what they are looking for. Luckily, even if your Pinephone is branded for a specific operating system, you can replace that OS with whatever other OS of your choosing.
Honestly, we should be relieved if thats all that was stolen. A more sophisticated attack would involve OTM puts on TSLA and a tweet along the lines of: "finding major defects in Ys and 3s. shutting down all lines to reconfigure for a week"

That could have netted the attackers millions.
Where is the proof someone got access to the backend and not those specific accounts? Seems more likely an API client got hacked, possibly one that high profile people might use like a tweet scheduler, but not Twitter, given their threat profile and resources. That would explain why 2FA accounts were affected.

The problem is that Threadripper mobos are expensive, and as you said, 3000-series Threadripper don't use the same socket as earlier Threadrippers. Under $1000, it's better to optimize the budget for GPU and RAM, and avoid spending too much on the CPU+mobo. You can always upgrade the latter two together if needed.
I wasn’t sure what I was looking at, until I googled the Bitcoin address (bc1qxy2kgdygjrsqtzq2n0yrf2493p83kkfjhx0wlh):

Several high-profile Twitter users, including Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and the official Uber account appear to have been hacked, and all promoted that address, saying any funds sent to it will be doubled.

What is the easiest way to do that in Word, when it flags many technical terms as spelling errors? You can turn off spell check, but that setting doesn't stay with the document. Also, if you spell check and mark the item as correct, sometimes that action will stay with the document, however grammar items don't seem to stick with the document even after you mark it as correct.

The only way I can think of is to turn it into a PDF, but many places still want a Word doc.

>She set a car on fire! That is literally violence.

I'm referring to violence against people, not objects.

>Words are literally not violence. Speech is literally not violence. Silence is literally not violence.

I never said any of this, nor do I generally agree with any of it.

>Orwell had a term for this. It was called Double-Think.

I think these kinds of extreme us-vs-them strawmen are far more damaging, cruel, and thoughtless than the bad usages of the "it's just property" argument you're referring to are.

And to be clear, my entire post was in reference to the specific claim that destroying a police cruiser is automatically grounds for using violence against a person - for all I know about the example in question, her behavior on whole may have warranted the level of violence she received, but it's a ridiculous and anti-human opinion to default to.
they just posted the scam there...
