If we are talking multitools, a Leatherman would do nicely and it has blade lock (beside a S30V blade, possibly depending on models).

Depending on the country (and possibly in the US depending on states) a folding knife that can be opened with a flick of the hand/wrist may be considered illegal (switchblade or more accurately "gravity knife").

See:

https://www.akti.org/news/california-appellate-upholds-653k/

In some places there are also contrasting theories on the legality of the "lock open", i.e. a Victorinox multitool or an old Leatherman without lock would "pass" but a (say) Leatherman Charge/Wave/Surge would be border line[1] or just over the border[2].

>Have you run your test multiple times with varied training sets?

Some background - I've been working on this for several months now, experimenting with various CNNs (settling on a modified LeNet), hyperparameters and parameters. The bulk of the experiments have been failures - a typical scenario is the loss function decreasing in the training phase, but winding up unable to correctly predict labels in the test phase. There has been a progression however - from predicting either label A or B (but not both), to predicting both (but no better than chance), to doing a little bit better than chance. Maybe I'm fooling myself - I don't know. That's why I've been scouring the Internet for similar kinds of work (and not finding anything truly useful) and now reaching out to HN. If there's work out there that definitively rules out working in this space, I'm all ears. Otherwise I'm going to keep on experimenting. (edit:formatting)

Symptoms of depression are bad news for difficult self-improvement projects. Sometimes you need your emotional system to stop punching you in the face before you can climb out of the hole. Negative emotions can easily slip from encouraging action into preventing it. And without the capability to feel pleasure, even success will seem pretty empty.

Sometimes your life is actually great and the failure is in your perception. See the unreasonable effectiveness of applying basic rationality to your thinking, i.e. CBT.

Relief from depression is not happiness, it’s neutrality, the space to work, and the ability to feel the fruits of your work.
I wonder whether this problem can be mitigated by signing tweets with cryptography signature. Then people can put the public key in the blockchain or third-party websites. The user can sign the message with their private key and other people can verify it with the user's public key.

So if the attacker can gain access of Twitter system, at least they can not forge the message. But of course they can do other damages, such as reading private messages.
Neither the US Federal government, nor any state government are bankrupt. Under current law, it is impossible for any of those entitys to declare bankruptcy. There was a proposal by McConnell to allow states to declare bancruptcy; but it was widely ridiculed as a stupid idea (and I doubt seriously considered by him).

"No money" is not a meaningful concept for the federal government. It has two options for what to do with the money supply: increase it, or decrease it. Leaving the money supply unchanged is just a degenerate form of these and generally bad economic policy (deflationary).

Currently, there is a massive drop-off in the velicity of money, which, if not countered, would have a deflationary effect. Increasing the money supply has an inflationary effect to counter this. In fact, the federal reserve has been increasing the money supply to maintain target inflation. Currently they do so by giving money to banks (and recently, by buying bonds directly). Why shouldn't they run their monetary policy by giving money to individuals instead.
Yeah, a "cleverer" hack would be to buy stocks, and then get the accounts of Obama, Biden, etc, to tweet "We have the cure!" and link to a faked press release about a cure for Covid (how hard would it be to hack a pharma company's website?). The stock markets would probably go through the roof, and you can make a nice profit, and you'd look like just another Robinhood trader.

> You don't build half a bridge while finishing the design for the other half. But our software does seem to come out in that fashion because requirements aren't fixed

The analogy is flawed, because ”building” the software is the job of the compiler. Programming is all design.

And many bridges can be built using the same design, possibly with some parameters adjusted. When the same thing is done with software, it is so trivial to recompile that it doesn’t “count”. So you get fully custom software design compared to routine “compiles” of bridge blueprints.
You seem to assume there is a 'right' or 'wrong' answer. There is not. For example, we have California suffering from catastrophic mismanagement of their water resources. You have one group who wants to move more water into the population centers, essentially taking the precious resource from the rural areas (farmland, which is rather important). You have another group who refuses to build more reservoirs or dams to better manage the water (because NIMBY). And then you have the minority, the folks in the rural areas.

Nobody is right or wrong, they just all have different priorities. Regardless of those priorities, the resources must be allocated to ensure the entire ecosystem can continue to survive. The only solutions to accomplish that are going to be compromises. But unfortunately, the groups in the population centers have managed for an incredibly long time to avoid compromise. So, now California finds itself in an unenviable position of battling drought and fire nonstop.

That is tyranny of the majority.
The rule of law is a nice aspiration, but it has limits on large-scale cases. For instance I'm sure these laws about illegal state aid could logically imply a conclusion that would result in (say) Airbus going bust. And if the judges ever tried this, the laws or the system would be changed to prevent it. Those with real power would not permit this outcome.

And I think cases like this €13bn tax bill are half way there. Did it really spend 12 years working its way through neutral courts, like some slow squabble over who inherits the family pizza parlor? Or was there a bit more political input now that the EU feels that US tech giants are a geopolitical threat, in a way that they didn't 12 years ago?

And so the sovereignty question is not just on whose soil the high court sits, and who writes the nice rules it officially follows. It's about who gets to decide which big cases to let slide, and which to go after.
None, except when you're taking a huge shortcut. Which is why you want to be super cautious about using Pickle, or Java serialization, or any serialization solution that deserializes arbitrary objects. Once your deserialization isn't explicit about what objects you accept, you have to be super careful about the provenance of that data.

If you need to cut things even a few times a week, I'd recommend trying a knife with a pocket clip and one-handed opening. Being able to have the knife ready in 2 seconds without having to put down what you're holding is both useful and gratifying.
Spyderco's thumb-hole system works very well for one handed opening and the grip ergonomics on the Manix2 and Paramilitary2 are great. If those are too large for your tastes, the Spyderco Native is a good choice (while being harder to close one-handed)

I was "lucky" to have been majoring in psychology right before getting diagnosed with major depression. So I went into treatment knowing things like this that helped me stick with it.

Which was a literal lifesaver, because the first SSRI I took gave me severe stomach pains. I spent at least 2 hours every night spitting into the dorm room sink with the lights out.

Instead of quitting, I knew to ask for a different SSRI. I also knew to switch therapists when the first one just talked at me the whole time. I then got one who listened a lot at first, then started challenging things I said after we had some trust.

And one more helpful thing J knew: medication was like a crutch. And, despite that usually being a negative metaphor, I saw it as a positive. If you break your leg, you use a crutch while it heals. Your treatment should be the crutch (meds) and therapy. The therapy works better when you can think better.

I ended up not needing my meds anymore. I still have overall flattened affect and bouts of depression, but I can deal with them. To torture the metaphor, it's like having a slight limp from the broken leg. I'll never be "back to normal" but still find life worth living.
No man, that's just one line of thinking. I'm not religious in the least, and I love spending time alone and unoccupied. I know about existential angst and have indulged in it in the past, but my mind just wanders to other more pleasurable things when it's undistracted.

I believe it's safe to assume that Rust's memory model is (a subset of) C++11's memory model, since that's what LLVM implements. At this point I don't see how any specification could deviate significantly from that without breaking tons of code.
There are 2 parts here: (1) problem, and (2) remedy.

The issue for myself and likeminded individuals who actually do not have a stake in the current "power dynamics" -- I could post during the Twitter hack -- is "part" (2).

Where are the "scientific" and "rational" studies on the du jour mob tactics cum "remedy" to social injustice? As a spectator it is reminiscent of previous attempts at "remedy", notably the Cultural Revolution by Chairman Mao. That didn't really solve anything, did it?

Distorted power dynamics certainly should be addressed. There are actually quite a few elephants in the room that aren't even discussed. But please do not make a claim that mobilized mob squads are a "proven remedy to fix power dynamic's distortions in society". The historical verdict on this is: one group of power holders replaces another.

Same goes for libgphoto, and Fujifilm's own implementation, by the way.
I believe the F-35 was supposed to have a SEAD variant or "SEAD-mode". The F-4 Wild Weasel filled that role for a long time until the AF gave up on SEAD and handed it off to the Navy with the EA-6B Prowler. The Prowler did well and was replaced the Growler which has a decent reputation (or so I've heard).

Given the mess that the F-35 has been, I'm in agreement with the parent -- this may be a recognition that the AF needs a EW/SEAD fighter like the Growler and the F-35 will have some limitations.

The F-15 also has some serious combat persistence, which isn't terrible for an EW/SEAD craft, esp. since anyone thinking about fighting the US is investing heavily in AA, both in technology as well as sheer volume of systems. Having a big "missile truck" with EW makes squashing all of those systems a little easier.

Disclaimer: I'm legally still a Whidbey Island WA resident and have connections to the Growler project. However, the above points are simply opinions.

The country did not, but some cities did. There have been massive near-daily riots in Portland for example, but if you only consume mainstream press, you wouldn't even know.
> How is just splitting the memory in two separate channels going to make anything faster?

I am not a HW engineer, but:

With DDR, the difference of all traces in the same channel (data & clock) has very tight tolerances (on the order of 1/8 or 1/16 of a clock). Having fewer traces per channel may make it easier to route for higher clock speeds.

> How will this affect driver complexity and cache-misses?

I'm not sure what you mean? The memory controller should abstract almost all of the differences away. There are per-channel configuration settings that are usually configured by the SPD rom, so there will be twice as many to set, but multichannel memory controllers are already a thing, and going from N to 2N of something doesn't really affect software complexity once N is greater than one.
> I went down a rabbit hole about EDC in WA state. There is a grey area that carrying a pocket knife requires a concealed weapons permit.

From what I can tell, the article you linked talked mostly about the illegality of concealed carrying a fixed blade knife. From what I can tell, it's perfectly legal to carry a folder as long as it doesn't possess any "bad" features[2] and is within the length restriction.

The law in Seattle is pretty clear.

> "Dangerous knife" means any fixed-blade knife and any other knife having a blade more than 3 1/2 inches in length[1].

___

1. https://library.municode.com/wa/seattle/codes/municipal_code...

2. My understanding is that a lot of otherwise normal "folding knives" fall under the "gravity knife" definition because the detent that holds the blade closes is often pretty weak (on purpose - it makes opening the knives one handed easier).
The same xenophobic rhetoric repeated ad naseum. It's only natural that US industries would work with the second largest economy in the world.
You seem to fundamentally misunderstand how voting should work.

The idea is not "the rules should be set up so people like me get a bigger voice". It's _one person, one vote._

You don't get an extra vote because you're "unique". What?

It strikes me that you basically want the voting system to be be biased to your advantage against a group of people you probably don't like very much.

If this is true, it speaks extremely poorly of your sense of moral fairness.
We have a mechanism for doing just that: Congress. A law that government communication must be primarily through an official channel (even if it is also mirrored to unofficial channels).

This was exactly my first thought when I saw Sen. Hawley's open letter to Twitter, aghast at the idea that the President's own account could be affected by this. I share his concern, but not his determination of blame. It is not a private company's job to protect the communications of our government. It is the job of our government's defense and intelligence apparatus. They can't do that job without the requirement for communication to be done through channels they control.

I notice you mention a pixel phone; are you by any change using mobile Chrome? I think this is https://github.com/zulip/zulip/issues/14943, which sadly didn't get fixed for this release but is being worked on.

Generally Zulip's scrolling and view-switching is very smooth and a ton of work has gone into it (my view is that if an app that you use all day isn't snappy it's going to waste tons of your time).

The short answer for how to make good scrolling performance (like any other performance work, really) is to profile, make sure you understand what's happening, and fix it. It can be hard to predict what makes things slow without doing so. (Fun fact: seemingly reasonable ways to use an emoji spritesheet with CSS can wreck scrolling performance).
