How is this at all surprising? Any non-open source program can do everything you just listen and more. Discord may have been dumb for naming their analytics request point "/track" but that doesn't make them worse than anyone else. I wouldn't be surprised if Word sent every button press to Microsoft. And besides, all the chat data is stored on their servers anyways, so it's not like they get a whole bunch of new data through this.
A few predictions about 2020s as the Remote Work Decade
One would assume the same way they survived in the era without any Facebook.

Now, in a world where Facebook exists, we should probably consider the effect that its particular flow of information has on society. Keep in mind: this is the same company caught running A/B tests on its users without their knowledge on whether running "happy" or "sad" stories had effect on their observable behavior.

The public should probably care about what effect Facebook has on it, because Facebook cares about what effect it has on the public.
The Tyranny of Metrics
In the olden days before the AIA (America Invents Act) US Provisional applications provided inventors proof of invention. Back then proof of invention would establish the presumptive priority date for the whole invention. The details could be fleshed out in the subsequent filed non-provisional application.

After the AIA, the so-called first-to-file rule took effect where priority date is set based on the date you file the first application (provisional or non-provisional). But for a few exceptions, the first to file wins, first to invent does not apply anymore.

Now, US Provisional patent applications only protect the subject matter that is in the fours corners of the document. The only time we file provisional applications now, is if it there is a bar date emergency or the inventors have not had time to approve the draft non-provisional application before the bar date.
If you expect differently, you haven't been around many vehicle (or brand) specific fan forums.

[EDIT:

I should have watched the interview and my comments further down are inaccurate.

But - oh wait - I didn't realize that Ratcliffe the guy that released dubious information about Hillary Clinton a few weeks before the election coming up.

https://www.businessinsider.com/dni-ratcliffe-declassifies-r...

''Andrew Weiss, a Russia specialist who is the James Family chair and vice president for studies at the Carnegie Endowment, described Ratcliffe's decision as "total national security malpractice,"''

Which totally violates the norms of the Intelligence Community and was done to help the President's re-election campaign:

https://www.lawfareblog.com/john-ratcliffes-dangerous-declas...

Why do people trust this guy? You shouldn't. Even if what he says turns out to be true, his actions reveal him as an un-trustworthy person on this issue.

-------------------------------------------------------

----- Please just ignore this stuff below :-) ---------

> the DNI says that they haven't passed any reports/briefings to Congress that say that.

While I didn't read/watch the interview/article in question, I just want to point out that the DNI statement, as you described it, is pretty carefully worded.

They "have not passed reports/briefings that say it's Russian disinformation". This leaves room for:

- Documents or meetings not officially considered reports/briefings.

- Documents or meetings with damning information but that draw no explicit conclusions, leaving it to the House Intelligence Committee to do that.

Obviously what I'm saying isn't a strong argument one way or the other. What I am saying, is, it's important to look at the big picture and to do so with a careful eye.

Personally I think the blog Lawfare does an excellent job of this and is a great guide for these sorts of issues. Here's their analysis of the Senate Intelligence Committee Report:

https://www.lawfareblog.com/collusion-reading-diary-what-did...

"One of the clever features of the Senate Intelligence Committee’s report is the committee’s apparent decision to draw no conclusions, merely to recount facts. This allowed the entire committee, irrespective of party or fealty to the president, to join in the factual findings."

And then ...

"To read these thousand pages and come away with the conclusion that they amount to evidence of “no collusion” really involves a protestation of faith, not a dispassionate assessment of presented evidence."

It's a very comprehensive document and I highly recommend it.

IMHO Kanban in the computing industry is an analogue of typical task scheduling algorithm on the CPU. Instead of planning the work ahead, you have a work queue and you work each item from it until either the work itself becomes blocked, or (if you're timeboxing/preempting) a fixed period of time expires.

But more generally to the poster's question - like the example above, I think there is a lot in the project management space that was already solved by computer scientists. :-)
Software creation has the characteristic that if you are doing the same thing over and over you are doing it wrong. Construction and manufacturing are much about doing the same thing the same way every time. This is why a lot of techniques do not translate well to/from software and other disciplines.

Permaculture farming is fairly low effort actually. Most of the work is in shaping the earth. Generally seeds are sown semi-randomly and whatever pops up is what pops up. There's very little direct management of plants.

Also getting in grazing animals does a great job of prepping land for new growth.

Totally agreed. It's so frustrating to me that out of the thousands of brilliant interviewers out there, we got this guy somehow bubbling up to the top. Maybe he brings the conversation down to the masses? His "philosophical" questions are often so bad that they don't even parse for his interviewees!!!

Lot of people complaining about the interviewer's skill - yes it is different and it can feel like stoned teenager with disorganized thoughts asking questions that form mid sentence :) - but if you give it some space, let it be, it's not bad at all. I actually like the slower pace and very down and dirty style of questioning - as opposed to the fast, high level, polished way that becomes inaccessible some times.

That's actually pretty fair at times, though I find the RealTesla crows to be needlessly acerbic at times. But then again that is often true of the r/TeslaMotors crowd too if someone accidentally "insults" the car in the "wrong" way.
I have no problem calling someone by their preferred gender term and including gender-neutral language. The problem I have is that there is an ever-growing, constantly-changing secret set of rules created, not as much to make people feel better, but in order to purposefully shame those who's viewpoints differ from the current political viewpoint that all human interaction is steeped in racism/sexism/bigotry.

The day after the Amy Coney Barrett used the term 'sexual preference,' Merriam-Webster Dictionary updated it to say it is offensive.

https://www.newsweek.com/amy-coney-barrett-preference-defini...

Are these rules really improving society or are they just being weaponized to impose a political doctrine?
It makes more sense when you use tau as tau is a full rotation, not half rotation. e^tau=1.

Also I think that i is not interesting because i * i=-1, but because i * conjugate(i)=1. I never saw the -1 in the context of complex numbers but if you say it's 1, it's easy to see the unit circle. Similarly, with split-complex numbers, you have j * conjugate(j)=-1. Split complex numbers are about mirror reflection so the -1 makes sense.

This is a quibble, but you might find it useful. The writer of this otherwise well-written article writes "i.e." where they should have written "e.g.". i.e. means "that is". e.g. means "for example". I have no idea why people keep getting this wrong.
A lot of back pain, regardless of where is is felt, stems from the large Bundling of nerves in the cervical spine and in the sciatic nerve bundles underneath your glute muscles.

Do not stretch your spine, as your structure is likely weak, and you can further damage your disks/vertebrae and the nerves therein by improperly applying changes to where the pain resides most frequently.

I suggest you look into foam rolling, and fasciae work in the glute/hamstring areas first. There are a lot of mobility youtubers that talk all about different techniques.

Also I have been studying the effects of LaJin (Traditional Chinese stretch series) and so far found the prolonged relaxation in the fascia to relieve chronic pain, and uncover structural improprieties that are the root cause.

Here is a long write-up over self healing with paida-lajin (拍打-拉筋 Basically slapping-stretching).
http://www.dontow.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/P...

As for how long it takes to get better... growth and entropy are in opposition. It may relieve your pain day 1 but it may come back halfway through the next day, it may take 6 weeks to feel the deep relief. Your structural damage could be well beyond simple tissue degeneration and nerve pain, in which case self treatment is not advised. You should have an MRI taken if you believe yourself to be in later stage deterioration of the affected area.

Slightly off-topic, but related because this happens to me on wireguard VPN through their (excellent) app.

It seems like the VPN connection is not shared to devices if I allow them to connect to my phone's hotspot. This is annoying, because I have a number of devices that ephemerally use the hotspot, and for which it is quite a hassle (impossible) to individually set-up and whitelist a keypair. Is this something that would be fixed with the inclusion of Wireguard as an android native VPN protocol?
VIC-20 sold close to 3 million units. VIC-20 was the first computer to sell 1 million units.

Regardless, this article is 1978, before the VIC-20 or C64 came out.

The TRS-80 was, by far, the best selling of the 1977 Trinity. This was because it had the lowest price and it was readily available from Radio Shack stores. Commodore had trouble producing the PET and the inclusion of the monitor and tape drive made it have a higher price.
It’s similar, but CHERI provides much stronger guarantees. (The ARM implementation will use 128-bit pointers, with the top half being used to store much more granular keys.)

By waking earlier, I tend to feel more relaxed because if I get productive then I can do much more in my entire day, and if I just mess around and read the news, I feel less stressed as I still have the rest of the day to do the work. It's basically a win-win.

The quiet helps and so does the "working while people sleep" too, for some weird reason.
It's not too different from the real thing. It's one of those "don't try this at home" things. :D
I don't get this either.

There are new pictures of Hunter Biden smoking crack. Those clearly weren't released previously.

Is the claim that these pictures are forgeries, or that they were hacked and then combined with forged emails to show Joe Biden's corruption? I haven't seen this explained anywhere. Personally, the pictures make me think the whole contents is real, although maybe the origin story isn't.

I haven't had it "get better". Most the things I do make it bearable, and help to keep it from being a debilitating, acute pain that puts me out for a few days.

I do have to echo Yaa101 though: mobility exercise and stretching help, and my chiropractor helps counter some of the persistent pains. Stretches that target my legs and especially my hips are critical to helping the lower back relax and not hurt.

Ironically, the least pain I felt was when I played volleyball with some friends for 3-4 hours every weekend for a month or two.

Negative rates only work against the bond market. It's not being applied against against cash balance. In large part negative rates drain money out of fixed asset funds that are typically people's retirement funds.

Negative rates will in majority be harming the boomers reducing their pensions. They are legally forced to be in these investment systems. Boomers who don't even think they can quite retire are going to watch their investments shrink. Why is that happening? Because they didnt invest enough and have been believing they will live off the younger generations. They ran up huge debts and expect the millennials to pay.

That's literally impossible. Intergenerational debt is not possible and the boomers now sit there wondering why they cant retire when they planned to do so; despite not saving enough for retirement.

I actually think it could also be rather useful for some IoT things. Things where all you want is a relatively basic connection between two electrical components.

I carry a stock of ESP32's at home for stuff that falls into a domain where this might be useful, especially if this has the ability to convert a given signal into a stream of MQTT messages. This seems marginally easier than firing up a new esp-idf project (although that's possibly because I haven't built up the muscle memory to have the right GPIO incarnations stored).

The code export is probably the killer feature here, so when you get to the point where working in the GUI is limiting, you can export it and switch to editing source code. I don't have a Mac handy, I'm curious what the export looks like. Is every card a different file? Is there an event loop that "listens" for these events? Or does it just generate a big main function?

So the statistical term for what you're saying is that the paper didn't use bonferroni correction. Which is relevant (but unrelated to the p < .05 arbitrary boundary).

> That's why investigation is done until there are many more 9's

Nobody said the investigation is done. What is being said is that this alone is a red flag that warrants a lot of investigation (and the investigation shouldn't have to be research by colleges whenever a graduate student gets around to it). This is something the EPA should fund an attempt to reproduce.

It's the EPA's job to prevent dangerous chemicals from being sold in public goods. It's not college's job to need to conduct exhausting studies with absolute proof with many 9s that something is unsafe and then hand it off to the EPA to act. Once any reasonable doubt is raised the EPA needs to take ownership.

Yep, sprinting is the prime example. If an honest but genetically lucky and hard working sprinter came along today, there would be no way they could convince everyone that they were clean. Not getting caught doping is assumed to mean you are just too good at hiding it.

The dopers have basically ruined sprinting and a number of other sports for anyone who wanta to compete cleanly and does well.

It's entirely possible that Bolt is clean and is a Phelps like genetic outlier, but there will always be suspicions that can never be disproved, no matter what he does.

I've gotten massive amounts of food out of small raised beds with nothing more than compost tea and "plant food". Is it really not possible to consistently produce good yields from tightly packed beds with crop rotation on a 1 acre plot [without pesticides/herbicides]? I know it wouldn't scale up with typical large-scale farming monocultures, but for a mixed family plot?

Aside: it seems we've long been able to feed the world (in terms of meeting caloric and nutritional needs) based on American farm capacity alone, it's just that nobody wants to pay for it.

I had just reached an international level, but I was never at the olympic level. But a whole group I trained with for a time all became professionals, and some of them competed in the olympics. I knew them then before they got there, and I knew their level and their attitudes, and I saw nothing in their professional performances indicating that they had at any point moved into doping. How sure can one be? Never totally sure. But trying to be "sure" about the other possibility (that they were doping) will need more than "yeah, I'm sure they do".

EditAdd: I did know people who were fascinated about EPO-like medication, and asthma medicine when used without actually having asthma. That was when they were quite young, and that's also a long time ago. I never ran into any of them actually using anything, and they were in the minority - I met just two, and sadly one of them died in a traffic accident before he got to a professional level.

What bugs me about this is that there is untested powerlifting with better prizes. Go compete there if you want to take PEDs!! Of all the sports PL is the most honest in that it has that outlet at least, but it of course varies by country. The steroids taboo in some countries might discourage the creation of untested federations. That could end up having the wrong effect of encouraging athletes on the fence about punching their natty card; they might stay in the tested federation while using PEDs.
