This makes me very nervous about the Monero I own. It is understandable that the government would eventually use AML against Bitcoin mixing services. But how will the government go after cryptocurrencies that have mixing and transaction obfuscation built into their protocols?

I've heard the argument that it is impossible for the US Government to regulate decentralized cryptocurrencies. FinCEN cannot force a change in the Bitcoin or Monero protocols. However it is entirely within the government's authority to regulate the users of said currencies. So I imagine the government would add onerous reporting requirements for any citizen or corporation holding privacy based coins in order to circumvent their privacy features.
The Great Smoky Mountains are part of the Appalachian chain, between Tennessee and North Carolina, across the country from the Sierra Nevada. I imagine that the latter might also experience haze from the same cause (terpenes emitted by living trees), but given that a large part of the current problem is the suppression of natural wildfires, it would not be surprising for there to be actual smoke despite there being few European settlers. Native Americans in the region also used fire to manage their environment, e.g. to create meadows, as in Yosemite.
This is hugely helpful. I always have trouble scanning the git diffs because the first line of each hunk is often the same, causing me to take longer to parse the context.

A press release for indictments for people you're never going to arrest or have a trial for is nothing more than propaganda.

They can have the trial without arrests. It happens all the time.

If convicted, then they are sanctioned, or face some other externally-viable penalty. Often through restricting their ability to travel to allied countries and use the banking systems outside their home country.
The goal is to increase the combined yield without a proportional increase in labor.

Mark Shepard likes to brag about how he gets less half a harvest of six+ different species in the same field. He's still getting 2-3x as much food out of the space. Most importantly, I believe (and he agrees), when you monocrop you go for broke. If something goes wrong, you have very little to sell at the end of the year. If it's a bumper crop year, prices will be depressed if it's a good year for everybody. In either scenario, the dealer (bank) always wins.

With six crops, the standard deviation between good years and bad years is reduced, which makes farming less of a trip to Vegas. That he gets more out of the same land brings up his average expected income. It's more work, yes, but he points out that many farmers have to take a side job to make ends meet, and he theoretically doesn't (he speaks and consults), so he can invest that time into increasing his farm's productivity.

I haven't looked too deeply into the lynx codebase, but it might be tricky to do this without extra dependencies. Lynx already parses html obviously, but I don't know if it ever needs to make modifications to it.

Now, it would be great if there was a way to pipe the html from a webpage into another tool from inside lynx. Maybe that exists already and I'm just not aware of it.
That's not an issue for stoves specifically in the US - stoves, dryers, ovens, and other large fixed appliances are wired for 240V in the US as well. It would be an issue for non-fixed appliances like electric kettles, which only have 120V 15A available.

I'm claiming that announcing the indictments like this rather than keeping them secret as would be standard under such situations heavily impedes the ability to catch or try these people because they now know for sure never to go to a country that has an extradition treaty with the US.

When the announcement itself heavily impedes catching and trying the targets of the investigation, the announcement itself is the end goal.
It makes me think they really have Hunter's files. Whether those other files are real or not is precisely what I'm withholding judgement on so the rest of your comment doesn't really match what I said.

They weren't able to prove collusion directly (and listed repeated efforts by the administration to obstruct justice), but they found that Russia helped the Trump campaign proactively and they welcomed the foreign assistance[1].

So the Trump campaign welcomed the Russian election interference, of which there was a breathtaking amount[2]. It's also telling that Trump, who never has spared an unkind word for anyone, has never spoken ill of Russia for his entire term.

It's also worth noting that the special counsel was never allowed to indict the President, or even say that indictable conduct occurred, due to Justice Department policy. The absolute strongest available language that they could use was that their report didn't exonerate the President, and that's exactly what the report said.

I wonder what this means for mixers which themselves run on blockchains (specifically thinking of Ethereum's Tornado.cash). Would they go after the developers who wrote the code and published it on the blockchain? Or would they go after the miners who run the code (knowingly or not) and process the transactions involved in laundering?
they probably have a database of the entire GRU hackers squad (Unit 74455) and cross-matched the actions with people's background (people have resumes, social networks, educational background, etc.).

also google location services might have some data on them too
Sure they investigated, prior to the new evidence emerging.
I'd say the plan is to mostly ignore them on Linux until they become completely irrelevant or will become a good citizen and upstream their driver. I'm OK with Nvidia fading on Linux into irrelevance with their blob - good riddance. If they don't care about doing things on Linux properly, Linux users and developers don't need to care about Nvidia.

That's been the case for Linux users for quite a while already. Only those who are stuck with CUDA lock-in need to deal with this mess these days.

Nouveau developers expressed all this best:

> Moral of the story... just get an Intel or AMD board and move on with life. NVIDIA has no interest in supporting open-source, and so if you want to support open-source, pick a company that aligns with this.

Go back another hundred years and you'll find that there were. 100 years ago was during an unusually wet period of Californian history.
I see there are safeguards in place. But is it true that it is enough to compromise one CA to compromise my browser? Or would a hacker have to compromise ALL of the 322 certificates?

If the latter then having more certificates would simply mean it is more secure. If the former it would mean having more certificates makes it less secure.

Or is it something in between? Do additional certificates add to the security, or diminish from it?
The word "density" means mass per unit volume. It's sometimes qualified like "charge density" for (assumed, in turn, to be electric) charge per unit volume, but "density of charge" would mean mass per unit volume of charge, like "density of iron", means mass per unit volume of iron.

So density of space is mass per unit volume of space, not space per unit volume.

By how much? Your link don't say anything about how much fertilizer usage is reduced. Nor does it mention how much formerly crop fields are now being used for ranch land.

The concept of self-sustaining farming and ranching is as old as dirt itself, with various implementations including crop rotation or fallow fields, but it typically means that the are of land dedicated to a staple crop (such as oats or wheat for the exemplar GM) drops dramatically, as would the profits.

Nothing in the linked literature disagrees with this notion or comments on the different costs (other than the grants for a farm that's trying it).

I could have been less-acronym heavy! :) (The only correction is that TTPs can refer to tactical doctrine in general, which is the spirit I used it in.)

To be a little more specific, what we’re seeing in Nagorno-Karabakh seems to be focused on using drones to disrupt sustainment and movement by attacking convoys, so a lot of doctrinal innovation is likely to be based on how to protect against drones while on the move, which will, of course, trigger further counter-counter-drone innovations.

I agree so much with this! Most people who move into the pro gm world have a ton of experience and resources, but the reviews are one of the best ways to have people vetted. We only show GM's who have 5+ reviews on our search, but any GM can list a game if it meets our review standards.

I like that take on it being a permanent convention set up. The drop in games are definitely filling that niche. A bunch of our games aren't in search because GMs use our tools for charging their customers and scheduling sessions, but for private groups. I'll be honest, we're working to make the ToS more clear as we've learned about other use cases. We mean to say, Minors need a parents consent (credit card to book). As we have grown, we're working to create a better and more apparent code of conduct.

Yes, it looks like "Sjukdomsfall per dag" is more correctly translated as "Disease cases per day".

Though to point out, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disease#Concepts says "many cases, terms such as disease, disorder, morbidity, sickness and illness are used interchangeably" and "The terms illness and sickness are both generally used as synonyms for disease;" so I'm not clearly wrong.

It then goes on to make your point "however, the term illness is occasionally used to refer specifically to the patient's personal experience of his or her disease. In this model, it is possible for a person to have a disease without being ill."

As you can see from my earlier comments, I agree that the "sharpening" of Swedish recommendations is nowhere the big deal that the referenced article implies it is, and the local media is not making a big deal of it. It's preparations for any local outbreaks, ahead of time so people can be prepared, and knowing that existing practices are no longer as effective.

But, why the emphasis on "without a microscope"? Isn't early the right time for things like this?

Well hashing is (usually) a symmetric function and we are open source... Meaning you could recover the key in the code (or intercept it during transfer). I think Private/Public key is a simpler approach, reusable elsewhere in the code and it's known to be safe. But I'm not the CTO either, I could be mistaken.

How many IP adresses are valid? Can't you hash them all and compare them with the hash you receive?

Well at least in bodybuilding they are open about and silently condone PED usage rather than making it a game of who can do the most without getting caught. It does make it so that you need to be doing very large amount of PEDs to even have a chance at winning Mr Olympia though.

I don’t feel qualified to remark on other sports but based on casual observation of the opinions of bodybuilding fans or even wrestling fans/people into Hollywood, it seems most regular people are very ignorant about PED usage as a phenomenon.

There are limits to the rate that you can pack on muscle mass or how much you can maintain at a low body fat percentage which are telltale signs of PED use (not that I judge it, but just to temper my own expectations). I think many people’s ignorance of these signs are fueling body dysmorphia and insecurity. It’s better if people are aware of how common PED usage is in bodybuilding, Hollywood, and “instagram bodybuilders”

Tesla slashes its used car warranty to one year or 10k miles
Hmm, strangely, I simulated this in my head and I would feel a little uncomfortable with the push-nature of this in the worst case. Like if a friend used my location sharing to set fences to see when I'm going to a specific location and measured that, etc.

But if they used the fence around their own home to be like "Hey, when's he near my place so I can see if he wants to come hang" I think I'd like that.

So perhaps, to me, the thing that makes me happy is intent. I bucket these people into high-trust so I expect them to not do the weird one (and they won't even do the latter).
Oh that is awesome feedback! Thanks Darkhorse13!
Edit: Just because the public announcement may be construed as propaganda, it doesn't mean that the charges were necessarily wholly made-up.

The case for it being propaganda goes something like this: Barr's DoJ is making this charge publicly released so that the US can appear to be "tough on Russia." Despite Trump failing to condemn Navalny's Novichok poisoning or taking action regarding the intel on Russian blood-bounties on US soldiers. This would follow the pattern of other pro-Trump (painting him as a victim, or strong-man where convenient) politicized DoJ announcements such as 9 ballots being found in the trash, including noting that 7 of them were cast for Trump.

Hi,
ProjeQtOr ticks all the boxes.
It integrates all the features that others have, and even more.
Two level WBS : of course, ProjeQtOr does it, and even 20 or mode Levels if you wish !!! You don't have restrictions with ProjeQtOr; You can have projets with sub-projects, with sub-sub-projects (and so on) and each project can have tasks, with sub-tasks, and sub-sub-tasks (and so on). But if you want only two levels, you also can.
Gantt chart ; ProjeQtOr also provides it but not only; You can have project portfolio, resource Gantt chart (not a real Gantt but very easy to read and very efficient to analyse resource planning). ProjeQtOr also provides real capacity planning calculation : you don't only draw a gantt chart, ProjeQtOr calculates it for you depending on the constraints and resources capacity (when resources are shared on several projects, it's not an easy trick). ProjeQtOr also calculates the critical path (which is in fact a critical chain in ProjeQtOr as planning is driven from resource capacity)

And all of this is easy to install, easy to use, and free.

Really, ProjeQtOr is worth a try.

> base pay isn't so far off, but you don't get equity.

This is the best summary of the situation. Sadly, there doesn't seem to be any levels.fyi data from any of the studios. Anecdotally, film, like the game industry, has a history of paying less than the overall market rate for software engineering because there are a lot of people who love it.

Some of the [animation] studios (e.g., Pixar, PDI) have also historically issued annual bonuses based on how the films performed. Visual Effects, however, isn't like that because the work is done for other studios. For example, MPC did much of the visual effects for both Jungle Book and The Lion King, both of which were produced and distributed by Disney.
