> Revoking Qualified Immunity is the lede.

Thanks for catching this! I can’t believe they buried it; that belongs in the headline, I would think, but it was already contextually overloaded as it is.
This is beautiful. I thrive on impromptu social interactions during the work day, and would love to have a system that facilitates and encourages it with teammates that are open to it.

I love the secondary, single-purpose device approach. It relieves the mental strain of figuring out this set up... happy to pay a premium to be connected with my team on one tap.
Understanding Luminous flux (lumen) and Illuminance (lux)
I have worked for many years as a software-developer and found that more than 5 effective hours per day are impossible or at least not sustainable.

30-32 hours per week is perfect. More is just useless.

I have heard that this seems to be true for most intellectual work that requires concentration (5 hours daily max). No sources on that, though.
It's standard operating procedure for a major relocation to come with a COL adjustment. About as normal as it gets.
Yes, quite possibly.

I had to practically threaten my best student (a female) to get her to go to a programming competition.

At which she proceeded to beat 80% of the teams by herself by answering 4 of the 10 problems outright. And then the rest of the team answered 2 more. They did quite well.

Her response: "That was fun. I'm pretty good at this."

<facepalm> Yeah, that's why I made you go.

I didn't shove her there because she was a female, I shoved her there because she was BY FAR the best student in my class. And the first time she showed up for a competition prep meeting, it was stupidly obvious just how much better she was than the rest of the team.

Some professor gave all of those students on the team a shove to get them there. Other professors had her as a student. None of them gave her a push to go do the competition. Why not?

That's the kind of thing that fills or drains the pipeline.

And that was college, a point where women finally aren't quite so worried about peer pressure. I imagine if I was teaching high school, I probably would have had to pull her parents in to exert enough pressure to make her go.
If you told a child "you see, when you go in the water, your lungs stop being able to absorb oxygen and your brain shuts down - after long enough - we cannot start it back up again" they aren't going to understand.

Using allegories you can put things into terms the child understands more easily. As they get older you can explain the truth behind the "lie" or story, if you like.

This isn't my experience. I lived in a few different suburbs and there were always sidewalks. The only place I've been to where I really noticed their absence is smaller cities in New England. I always assumed it was due to the fact that the weather precluding walking so much of the time anyway.

And of course in other places in the world where cities are old and streets are too small for sidewalks. Back streets in such places are comparable to alleys in the US.
Allergies are certainly one factor that changes with climate.

Most likely that board would be using RISC-V extensions, so no juice.
Looks nice, but the shadows on the buttons are wrong: the top and left edges should be white, the other two black. This way, the buttons look more like elements of a status bar, those had the borders reversed to produce an "inset" effect (like in this screenshot: http://173.255.209.242/chhtml/toolkit/demos/Windows/gifs/gad...)

You're probably thinking of the Cypress PSoC, Programmable System on Chip.

Those things are fantastic for hobbyists and can be nice for low-volume production. But they're kind of crap for higher volume work:

* Expensive

* Physically fragile/easy to kill: personal experience suggests they are noticeably more fragile than their competition; ALWAYS add pull resistors and ESD diodes to their JTAG/SWD pins and use a real voltage supervisor, not the internal PoR/brownout, no matter what the datasheet says because it does not speak the truth

* Actually, just add external ESD diodes to anything even the least bit sketchy

* On-chip analog not good enough for serious applications or stupidly limited (just give me two of those please? no?)

* On-chip routing is very, very limiting

* Weak MCU cores

* Few large parts (high GPIO, fast core, ...); the 5LP is better but needs a refresh with bigger, better, cheaper flagships

* More digital blocks (UDBs). They use a crappy old macrocell architecture, which wouldn't be a problem except they only give you TWO of them!

I've actually whined about the last one to the Cypress FAE (great guy!) and he just started laughing. Turns out, he's repeatedly said that to their higher-ups and gotten shot down... only to have customers like me ask for it again, over and over....

Hopefully under Infineon the PSoC line will be better managed. It could be a huge powerhouse, but right now it just does not have a good enough lineup of sane models.
No need to imagine, after at least 28 murders, some black children, and countless millions in damage and theft that has resulted in various cities, it's clear that Hong Kong protestors and the American variety of 'protestors' are not the same thing.

The subtext of the story is that the HBCU was visited to check a checkbox, but the students at that school were treated with such disrespect that the underlying bias was clear.

Nobody has any trouble understanding that Duke is a higher-priority recruiting target than A&T.
Ok. Sure. And?
Tangentially related, but a colleague just got their replacement of kitchen cabinets shut down by the local government for not having a permit. It’s baffling to me that the government requires that you get permission to do significant modification to the inside of your own home, especially for non structural work.
I'd like to ask for evidence for statement 2. This sounds more like your opinion than a substantiated claim.

1. Someone needs to pay the people who write stories. If proof is important you should not object to contributing to the people who work on your behalf.
This wasn't pizza (and, if it was, leftover pizza would be even crazier).
Japan desperately needs a competent organization that can stand up for the digital rights of its people now. They lack organizations like the EFF that are willing to do this.
It’s also related to financing reality. Commercial real estate is refinances every 10 years or so based on the expected rent. The math works out such that it’s far more reasonable to leave a unit empty with a higher rent than occupied with a lower rent, since the refinancing terms dominate the amount of lost rent.
You needn't have said any of this.
Put these details in a certified letter sent to the legal departments of both InstaCart and Costco. They'll pay attention to an evidence trail.
Starting a Startup on F1 Visa
I'm a student on an F1 visa in the Unites States.
I'm considering starting a startup (as the sole founder) and/or becoming an independent contractor. But F1 visa holders are prohibited from working anywhere in the United States except for an internship or on an on-campus job.

I was considering forming a corporation and getting paid through dividends, but my international student advisor just told me that any form of work, even unpaid internships are illegal for F1 students and could result in deportation and a 10-year ban on reentry.

So is there any legal way in which I can start a startup or become an independent contractor? If any of you know lawyers or website where I can look for legal concerning this matter, please point me to them. I'm currently located in NYC.

Thank you.
Yeah you got me. Fair enough.

Windows 2000 was amazing and just my favorite OS. Saying that as a linux user.

Saying you're discriminated against is more of a function of what you are told to perceive. Current generation blacks are more likely to say they are discriminated against than any generation prior.

The problem with controlling for resume is that getting a strong resume requires getting those jobs in the first place. That doesn't disprove that there could be a bias against women and minorities that stopped them from achieving equivalent resumes in the first place.
One of the best realities for WFH is that one doesn’t have to pretend to work after burning out for the day.
Pretty interesting. The association between nearness to oil wells (not flares) is associated with a difference of 0.1 weeks of gestation, or 17 hours, and a reduced birth weight of 18g. It's nice to see papers that express total faith in their statistical methods.
Bitcoin scams, never send Bitcoins unless you verified the source you are sending them to. Giveaways don't exist and even if they do you should not send Bitcoins in a contest but send a Bitcoin address to the person to send you Bitcoins.
The reality is most places keep running software architected for an era over 2 decades ago now and it’s ossifying harder if it’s still carrying enough business inertia. Those workflows of bootstrapping VMs and EC2 instances like it’s 1996 are not going away because to do anything cloud native in your architecture you need cloud native software, and usually if you can get a container you can get an RPM or Deb and play package jockey rejecting the new technologies literally meant to do half the work for you.

In most of the cases where places just dump money it’s usually a question of labor cost spent to optimize vs the gains, and unless your business is built around scaling a lot of small customers like the usual SaaS unicorns customer acquisition is super long, painful, and technical inefficiency is the default for enterprise as a rule. It’s worth paying $200 for a $1 part because the overhead and risk of renegotiating anything is not worth it. When an hour long meeting essentially costs a minimum of $1000 to a company essentially, it’d better be worth it.

When it comes to ASIC designs and VLSI the technical debt is pretty different because each generation of hardware has past benchmarks primarily to drive it forward. Oftentimes in software people tend to want to keep things the same which discourages innovation or touching.
Bingo. Corrupting two is much less likely.
It's a phenomenon known as a "lie to children". Each level of academia produces a wrong but convenient model which is then subsequently replaced with a slightly less and slightly less convenient model.

Top Pros and Cons of AI in Mobile App Development

Journalists are allowed to keep their sources secret even if the government alleges that a crime has taken place. These rules are not as clear cut as you’re implying.
I have a lot of sympathy for the telcos on this.

They did not volunteer telephone numbers as universal proof of ID. So their threat model was proportional to their intended purpose of the identifier. If bad guys steal your phone number and run up $100 of calls, the phone company would eat the charges and get the number back. Of course nobody did that because it wasn't worth it.

Imagine you own a medium-sized residential building, maybe 20 households live there. You issue them all with front door keys. You use pretty good locks, from a no-duplicate series that isn't trivially picked by amateurs. You figure that picking the door or forging a key would be pretty hard so there's no way it's worth it when someone could just kick it down.

Then, to your astonishment, a local jewellery store announces that anyone who has one of your front door keys can now store up to $1M of valuables in safes they've made accessible from the street. "It's totally safe" they assure your residents, "because how could anybody else get one of these front door keys? That'd be impossible".

Um. What? Before you know what's happening, one of your residents is trying to sue you for a million dollars because they proudly used a safe to store their $1M of Bitcoins for some crazy reason and (duh) somebody just got a duplicate key easily enough for way less than $1M and stole them.

Wasn't it because DEC Alpha targeted the workstation market while Intel disrupted them with PCs? The story is in "Innovator's Dilemma".

Today Intel is facing the same problem DEC faced, that they make most of their money from workstations and datacenter hardware, while facing disruptive innovation that is ARM

If Clayton Christensen is correct, then Intel is dead in the water
Fellow Seattlite here. Seeing folks in this thread talking about grocery stores being 40+ minute walks away from grocery stores is making me sweat. I like the idea of moving somewhere cheaper, but I refuse the idea of being forced to drive everywhere.
The Desolate Visions of Andy Warhol
Table-based layouts are basically really practical for layouts. It could really have been extended to make it more styleable and also to allow for stackable columns and more responsive layouts instead of whole sale replacing them with CSS and DIVs.

Also, it would have been nice if HTML supported the concept of data fields WITHOUT explicitly needing javascript.

HTML could also have allowed for an easier way of specifying different layout types without going into CSS wizardry to support responsive layouts.

For instance, something like the one below where data fields are specified in a separate block, reusable components in another and then finally the actual layouts.

It might be a cultural thing but my home country Australia and the in the UK the local pub in smaller towns is often a much more family oriented place. Often there is outdoor seating and families go for dinner together, often there is live local music. People also go just to drink but it’s all mixed together, of course this varies depending on what part of a town or city you’re in, some are more family oriented than others. I think that kind of pub would fit well with OP’s description more than yours.
"Did Hooli recruiters think that they wouldn’t pass the hiring bar?"

Most likely, yes. In the US news rankings, Duke is #10 and UNC is #20. NC A&T is #281.

NC A&T has a 46% graduation rate vs Duke's 95%.

Duke engineering is ranked #20, NC A&T is #134.

These schools just aren't in the same league.
Amazon and arguably google are in desperate need of a good anti-trust investigation.
Interviewing a criminal without outside a particular crime is hard to construe as being complicit.

Recording who set a police car on fire and refusing to hand over the recording is a different matter.
Poe's law seems to be in force here, I can't tell if you're serious.

Thumbs-up stuff you want to see more of, ignore or thumbs-down stuff you want to see less of. Subscribe to channels that seem to have a lot of stuff you like. It seems straightforward?
Meh. There's plenty of density for "a strip mall every four blocks". And you can make that structure totally walkable instead of requiring cars. The important thing is not to jack the rent through the roof.

Most suburbs don't, for no obvious reason. I did complain to the Mayor a few years ago that the grocery store four blocks from my house has only street access and no sidewalk access.

I'm not at all sure why the author seems to think that converted garages are great business incubators. That's a terrible idea. It's what my uncle did for his cabinetry business, but that's largely solo. I can't imagine wanting significant business traffic on residential streets.
I've been very vocal against mass surveillance, mostly with the argument that the court warrant system is entirely sufficient for police to do their jobs.

One important thing about warrants and subpoenas is that they are often limited to strictly collecting data related to a specific investigation - not a fishing expedition.

> The judge placed some limits on the subpoena. He said police could use the images to identify suspects only in the arson and gun theft investigations. Detectives could not use the photos or video to pursue suspects in vandalism or other lesser crimes — even if police found such evidence.

> The subpoena would also be limited to professional camera equipment and would exclude reporters’ cell phone photos and videos.

This seems to fit the criteria - especially since police firearms were stolen.

The only red flag is that they are asking 5x different news organization to hand over journalist's raw recordings. I'd be highly skeptical of this subpoena if I was a judge - unless they could prove the journalists were likely the only ones at the time recording the incident, that they know were present, and it didn't apply to material involved in any specific reporting. Broad footage taken at a public event is always less concerning and less protected.

But at the same time tons of people are recording protests besides journalists and it might just be laziness on the police's part. Although that said, sometimes rioters intimidate people trying to film crimes being committed (as seen here: https://old.reddit.com/r/ActualPublicFreakouts/comments/hu9l...). And the police claim "the department was at a dead end in its investigations." So I'm not sure much outrage is warranted here, but I'd still probably lean on the safe side.
Why are we still calling riots “protests?”

1000 people absolutely is limited - it's not everyone at the company! I'm sure they did their annual security training, like everyone here, and they might have even passed an additional screening and another training session for account access.

You have unreasonable expectations for what "limited group of trained and vetted employees" means in a CSR environment for millions of customers.
This is true. I was at Google 5 years. Some Googlers will take credit for your work. Get away from such people as quickly as possible.
I know it's cool now to rag on remote work, and I definitely get that not everyone wants to work remote. But boy, I don't ever want to work in an office again. It's not just the time saved, the privacy, and the lack of commute, but the simple fact that while code is building I can throw some laundry in the washing machine, check the mailbox, keep an eye on my 3d printer, have my pets around, crash on the couch for 10 minutes, make a quick trip to the grocery or post office, use my pull-up bar, be home when large packages arrive, eat out of my own fridge and pantry, have a podcast going without having to put on my headphones, not wear shoes, use my own bathroom and spend as much time as I need in there, and so much more.
If I search for Pixel 3 case on Amazon, it will also return Pixel 3 XL cases.

If I search for 1440p IPS monitor, it will mix in some monitors that aren't 1440p, and some that aren't IPS.

I'm not sure if it's because they don't want to solve the problem, because they don't care, or because somehow having customers need to spend more time on Amazon to research their purchases perversely leads to people spending more time on Amazon seeing other items they might also later buy.
Same reason illegal aliens were called asylum seekers and immigrants - propaganda and politics.

It becomes easier to influence the public towards supporting something when you can reframe it as a moral problem. We saw this in the 1990s under Bush I when they did the whole "babies thrown out from incubators" lie that garnered support for the first Gulf war. We saw it again with the "tubes for WMDs" in the second Iraq war.
There is another quirk to Japan that seems to make this work so well, and that's how quiet it can be. I am sure there are exceptions, but for the most part even in packed areas with dozens of people walking the street, it is mostly quiet. I think low car density plays a pretty big role in lowering the the overall sound levels, but there must be more to it than that. It was surreal at times.
That's probably more true of the Democratic party, which is in fact a coalition of several large and somewhat disparate blocks (in particular, the black vote, which strategically prefers the concentrated vote over the most ideologically representative one --- Ismail White's book on this is pretty interesting). I don't think there are comparable forces in the Republican party --- though there were before the "ideological sort".
They're not after a source. Reporters witnessed and recorded crime in progress.
Because there’s riots and protests. They’re not one and the same.
