SMS 2FA can also be phished, so TOTP would still be better and WebAuthn is such a complete paradigm shift that it would take many years for banks to implement it. TOTP is so stupidly simple they could roll it out in a month, audits and all.

Not to mention that in order to have a decent WebAuthn experience, you need a Yubikey with NFC, which go for 30-60$ if I remember correctly. Cost of authenticators is why everyone switched away from RSA SecurID.
They solved it in 1996 by incorporating traffic "officers" into the police force.

My bank has programmable pins. So one pin goes to account X, and the other goes to account Y. It's super handy when travelling so we can have our "per diem" attached to one pin, and then have another pin for things that would fall outside of that purpose.
Statistically, the "strong police force" side cares more about black lives. Anecdotally, maybe not.

1. The vast majority of murdered black people are murdered by non-cops, even if you categorize any time someone gets killed by a cop a "murder", regardless of context.

2. This number will go up, not down, if you abolish/defund police forces.

There really isn't much more to it than that. The biggest threat to a black person's life is another black person, not a cop. Would it be better if cops didn't murder unarmed people? Absolutely and emphatically YES. But that means better training, which in turn means more funding, not less.
It's not only the speed. All of the timestamps of the files are even numbers, which is indicative of a FAT file system.

> "The directory entry for the FAT file system only has a 5-bit field for storing the number of seconds in the time. This limits the number stored in the field to the range 0-31, which is multiplied by two to obtain the number of seconds."

The timestamps appear to have been copied to a FAT filesystem (common for USB devices) on May 25, 2016.

If a person (not accusing you) only read the headline and not the article, they might get the wrong impression.

Here is a part that I think makes things clear:

"Bottom Line

It's not so much the volume of interactions Black Americans have with the police that troubles them or differentiates them from other racial groups, but rather the quality of those interactions."
What are you trying to say in that second paragraph?

It sounds like "when USA took charge the number of deaths that needed investigating increased >300-fold" but that doesn't fit with the rest of your comment.

> A judge ruling that Apple must allow third-party in-app payment systems is a somewhat realistic outcome, whereas a judge ruling that Apple must permit third-parties to run their own app stores is probably a non-starter.

I gather judges really don't like to impose technical requirements - especially in a fast-moving industry like this. Ordering Apple to make the extensive changes required to allow for some kind of secure (as opposed to insecure, like Cydia) third-party App Store on iOS would be a massive undertaking that would probably cost the company north of a billion in total, especially regarding testing and security point.

...whereas ordering Apple to simply allow what is already possible (namely: permitting apps to collect payment details themselves through their own processors) is a good path forward. How would Apple respond to that though? In the event that Apple is required to allow third-party payment-processors that skirt the Apple tax, I think it's reasonable for Apple to introduce some kind of "app support fee" (beyond the annual $99/developer fee) - but Apple would be hard-pressed to negotiate a reasonable amount of that per-app. Perhaps $1 per app-download per year? Interesting times...

I'm also interested in potential legislation regarding forcing Apple to permit third-party web-browsers and other banned software categories - Apple's technical arguments may have had some merit back in 2007-2012, but now that my phone has more RAM and processing power than my previous laptop (which still runs the infamously RAM-hungry Chrome 84 fine!) this isn't an argument that holds water. I'd love to be able to run "real" Firefox on iOS, for example (there is an argument about how Apple can only trust their own build of Webkit to have executable memory pages for the JavaScript JIT - that's going to be interesting). We should compare Apple to Microsoft of 1998: Microsoft was convicted of monopoly abuse by simply bundling Internet Explorer with Windows (granted, this includes integrating it into the shell too) - while Apple doesn't just bundle Safari with iOS, they outright ban any kind of proper competition - Microsoft was convicted for far less, so why should Apple be given a free-pass?
All the steps listed on the url you shared can be automated and the platform can already do this. However, there are two issues:
1) Automated service is only available for DigitalOcean (DO) right now, so your client will have to choose DO as their infra provider.
2) DO does not offer granular OAuth permissions. In order to provision the droplet and modify the DNS records in the DO panel, the client has to authorize 'write' access. We do not persist the oauth token but for clients who are using their DO account for other purposes it can be a deal breaker.

Also, is it possible for your app 'usertrack' to read the license key from the environment variable?

Let me know if you would like to test this out. The service is in private beta at the moment.

--
The client will have to use the DO oauth to login, provide their ssh public key and the domain name. Everything else will be take care of by the app. It takes roughly 8-12 minutes to complete the deployment.

Could you put this interferometer array directly after a lens? Before the integration readout happening on a digital camera sensor. You wouldn't have the photon-electron-photon conversion.

The other problem with this approach is that is moves a lot of complexity to the edge of your environment.

All the transformation & orchestration of your content has to happen in your app.

If you have one backend and one app, that's not necessarily a bad thing, because you have to do that work somewhere, but if you have multiple apps (perhaps by multiple teams) that all consume the same backend, you start to duplicate a lot of that complexity all along the edge of your system.

I don't know Scots and how it is "officially" defined but when I look at the Bavarian Wikipedia https://bar.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoamseitn (and I know this is a dialect and not a proper language, despite actual grammatical differences) I can't stand it. I'm a native speaker but the regional differences between the several parts of Bavaria and Austria just make the phonetic spelling totally weird. Different parts use completely different vocals in the same word, so I'm not even sure why this would be in the same language wikipedia.

I don't think Luke misunderstood what Mark reported Jesus as saying. I think he omitted 'right' because it wasn't central to the point. That seems the simplest explanation, and I don't see anything in your comment that provides a more compelling alternative.

I don't particularly care if there are some Christians who erroneously think that the golden rule originated with Christ or that it's unique to Christianity. If this bothers you, please go talk to them about it, not me.

If you reread the thread, you'll note that I never actually claimed that Christianity contains "novel ideas". (I think it probably does, but I'm no expert on the subject and will not try to defend that position here.) Maybe this misconception is what is leading to you introducing lots of irrelevant material.
Snap Engineering
I'd also not focus too much on single node value for money; these machines come with Infiniband and are likely intended to be evaluation units for people that are interested in building a large cluster.

Fugaku cost $1 billion, with 159k nodes. That's only ~$6k per node, and that's if you assume the entire budget is allocated to the compute nodes, which it wouldn't nearly be. Wikipedia lists it as total program cost; so in addition to the facility, cooling and other equipment such as networking, it may well include years worth of operating expenses, staff, etc.

I believe the best way to view the price tag is: low enough that it's no barrier to anyone that's interested in building even a moderate cluster, but high enough to keep away anyone that's just toying around.

That way if somebody buys one of these machines and calls you up to ask a question, you're not wasting your time to treat it as a step in a longer sales process (meaning you let them talk to engineers, respond in depth etc).
Notably, saying yes to more police does not imply being happy with the police. It implies merely seeing more police as at least marginally less likely to do harm than the criminals they'd displace.

That's a very low bar to clear.
of course they are related. Take a preposterous example: draining the mediterranean sea would be an environmental disaster which we wouldn't do. But if it would forever end world hunger, poverty and disease we would do it. The trade-off changes.

WebAssembly in the browser didn't have its breakthrough so far and probably will never have. The problems WA tries to solve are no big problems, if problems at all:

- Typescript is an excellent language.

- Performance of Javascript is for 99% of all the websites more than good enough.

- New frameworks like Svelte are much more mobile friendly in terms of computational overhead or time to first render.

Also, work on WA has pretty much stalled.
What about the other side effects?
This comment is more to satisfy an aspect of the proof I was personally uncomfortable with.

We can easily show that (1) the iterative subtraction process always preserves divisibility by the GCD, and (2) it eventually reaches 0. (It cannot reach a negative value because we always subtract the smaller number from the larger number.)

It's slightly trickier to show that the process achieves the GCD before it hits zero. Theoretically, it could go from a multiple of the GCD to zero without passing through the GCD itself. This felt like a hole in my proof.

It is not the case, however:

In order to achieve r = 0, we must have had a = b at that step. We know that all of our pairs (a, b) and (b, r), at every step of the process, share the same GCD. Thus, the GCD of the original pair of numbers is equal to the GCD of the values a and b for which r = a-b = 0. Since GCD(m,m) = m for all m, this a and b are both equal to the GCD of the original pair -- which means that the process achieved the GCD.
A good precedent to study:

Georgia's Ex-President Explains How He Abolished Police and Brought Down Crime

> I Abolished and Rebuilt the Police. The United States Can Do the Same.

https://foreignpolicy.com/2020/06/11/abolish-police-georgia-...

> After Georgia’s Rose Revolution in 2004, I became president of a failed state. Law enforcement agencies functioned like criminal gangs. Officers demanded bribes, trafficked narcotics and weapons, and worked for political and business elites as a mercenary security force. Georgia was a textbook example of “predatory policing”: Police did not perform the basic responsibilities of ensuring public safety, instead enriching themselves and their patrons by extorting citizens. A 2003 survey found that just 2.3 percent of Georgians held a positive view of police.

> Given that reality, police reform was not only a matter of restructuring institutions or implementing better policies. We had to change the mentality of a broken, cynical, and fearful society.

> Before people could begin to trust the police, we—the new political elites—had to earn their trust. Challenging the status quo was not enough. We had to destroy it and build something better.

> We replaced them with an entirely new force of Patrol Police, who had no background in law enforcement and thus no ties to old, corrupted elites. Recruits had to pass a competitive examination and complete a course in criminal procedure code. They were trained in persuasion, negotiation, and mediation skills to minimize the use of force.

> In 2005 Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili fired "the entire traffic police force" of the Georgian National Police due to corruption, numbering around 30,000 police officers. ... Throughout the reformation, policemen were presented with new Volkswagen cars and navy blue uniforms, with "Police" written on the back.

There was a big shift in the intelligence community after 9/11 that is well documented and also reaches in all kinds of other areas (banking, travel records).

If you only think the intelligence apparatus of the US only watches within the border of the country that's a bit naive. Especially after what we know about the Snowden leaks (International submarine cables tapped, dragnet like collection of communications in all countries,...). The fact that there's no Americans involved is irrelevant to the question in this case.
I’m curious about this social worker idea. My mother was one and her job had her working mainly in poor neighborhoods. She was tasked with going into homes, speaking with people, and determining if the children there were in a safe environment. If it was judged it wasn’t safe, then they would remove the children.

As you can imagine this was a fairly dangerous job at times. Almost every time they had to make a removal the police would need to be called to assist. Even getting into the homes they’d need police sometimes as they’d be threatened and intimidated.

She eventually left that role to work with elderly people in need.
Fun fact: The new MS Flight Simulator 2020 uses WebAssembly to run the software for the aircrafts in game. You can check the release notes, where they do detail that webassembly is used for the SDK as well.

Depending on people’s age, it would be very surprising to hear anyone advocate for more police. Police generally are seen as the folk who take the fun out of things. So until you start getting affected by their absence you don’t advocate for them.
possibly unpopular opinion...

We need to be realistic about what the UN is, why it exists and what it can realistically do. Taxes are far outside the UN's scope. It's even outside the EU's scope (currently), and the EU has a lot more authority over members and economic issues generally.

In any case, it's not the rates that matter. It's corporation law, which determines what a company is for tax purposes. It's also corporation tax law, which is strategically byzantine. Individual countries (especially the US) can fix this, it's just hard.

For example, corporation law acknowledges Google's claim that "Google Ireland" is not related to "Alphabet" and that arbitrary amounts (many billions)paid by Alphabet to Google Ireland (ostensibly IP royalty payments) are ordinary business expenses. If US corporation law considered them one entity, they would owe the corporate tax rate.

Besides that... maybe corporate profit tax is just a bad solution. It has never really worked well. Historically such estate-like taxes have been a more solid approach. "Every grain flour owes its lord $n per year." In modern terms, you could say that Amazon owes x% (say 1%) of its market cap. In theory, this doesn't distinguish between profitable companies that can afford to pay from unprofitable ones that can't. In practice, (a)neither does the current system and (b)shares are money too.

For analogy, consider gambling taxes. You can try to charge the gambler on wins. Because of the nature of gambling, this needs to be netted against losses somehow. Meanwhile, requiring gamblers to keep records is a lost cause. The opportunities for tax evasion, the complexity of needed rules... it makes the whole thing unworkable.

Over time, various countries have moved to taxing casinos themselves with an excise-tax-like machine. Instead of gamblers paying on wins, casinos pay on wins. This is easy to manage, requires one paragraph of tax law and produces a predictable and steady stream of taxes.

Structure is what matters, not rates, not moral rhetoric. This is why politicians have such a hard time dealing with it.

I don't understand why so much effort is spent on who initially owned the ship or the ammonium nitrate.

No matter what they were guilty of, it's the Lebanese government that confiscated 3000 tons of explosive material and stored it in conditions that lead to the explosion. It was their ammonium nitrate when it blew up and their responsibility.

All this "who owned that ship" stuff smells of finger pointing to hide the real guilty parties.

Russian National Arrested for Conspiracy to Introduce Malware into U.S. Company
In some ways this comment is spot on, but in many others it's not. England, Australia, France and Germany all had unprecedented terror attacks in the years since 9-11. All of those have put in place much increased physical, telecommunications and financial surveillance, except maybe France (I don't know about France). Perhaps not post-9-11 world outside the U.S., but definitely a world in terror from the governments' point of view. From an average citizen POV, it's probably more like 'Didn't something happen a few years ago at an Ariana Grande concert?'.
