That's correct. Instances of voter fraud must be investigated and resolved, then the winner will be officially be decided.
Not only is the source closed and proprietary, the company and the product themselves have terrible reputations when it comes to security. Why would anyone even consider trusting whatever encryption they offer?
Your source is a PETA website that downplays its identity (it's in the footer). That not a credible source on islamic practice in the real world.
Is it minor?

From my perspective, making security guarantees about a product is the same whether that product is software or hardware. If somebody guaranteed that their ferris wheel had x safety feature, then it turned out to be untrue, nobody would call that a minor infraction.
This is just a long ego-cushioning landing for reality for a large number of people. The baseless claims will be tossed and there will be more ugly accusations, but it's basically over other than a bunch of bellyaching.
How so? At the time of sale it's not clear how the user will play the game, especially considering only a few titles are available officially for Proton.

I feel like there is a lack of solutions in this area. I messed with Zoneminder a few years ago and I never want to touch it again. What I would like to have is a low-maintenance setup in a docker container that I can throw on a VPS or raspberry pi, run it, set a username/password, point my dad to the web interface where he can configure anything he wants and I never have to deal with it again.
> An issue that was not foreseen, however, is the gender imbalance that was created, but even that is not that bad of an issue - involuntary celibacy is significantly lower in China than, for example, the United States, and is actually one of the lowest in the world, but this is still a problem, especially for more long term relationships.

Would you mind providing a source for this? Not doubting you, just curious.
So one is supposed to negotiate for higher equity but at the same time those who have gone through it aren't supposed to discuss their experience and payout?

I suspect you're also one of those people who says employees should just have negotiated better salaries but also fires them for discussing salaries.

It looks like he's drawing them from a pool of 1,000,000 integers which is fine so long as there are much fewer than 1000 items. With >1000 items you will have duplicates most of the time. See

As for the 300kb one might think at first that that's not very much, but it is so easy to have 30 things that are like that and it all adds up to a funky situation.
Same here in the UK.

I know a couple of guys in the UK who are essentially just coding all day, in full time jobs, making £100k a year.

No, it's an $80k bonus on top of the salaries they got for X years of work, and they're all still employed as well.
Of course not, I’ve already said so. Are you being willfully ignorant?
The simple fact is that this has been the way for every other election in recent history. No, "the media industrial complex" doesn't determine the winner, but they are fully capable of declaring who is going to win based on the current vote totals.

Expecting anything other than the counts as they are at the end of canvassing to be certified is basically declaring sedition at this point.
Same thing. The next President has yet to be decided.
might not be a fair comparison if you consider taxes on salary+rsu vs. being taxed on capital gains.
When I researched on the best/popular TOTP apps some years ago, I found Authy being highly recommended. When I tried it, I discovered that it first needs a phone number that it verifies through an SMS code. I promptly removed it and switched to another one (called OTP Auth).

Rote is absolutely necessary for a well rounded education, but I really feel the need to overcorrect in the opposite direction because testing for rote is the lazy approach. Over time a lot of testing has the tendency to shift to simply measuring rote.

IMO the clearest indicator of what’s going to happen is that Israel’s Netanyahu and Saudi Arabia’s MBS have both congratulated Biden.

These two leaders are Trump buddies. Their intelligence services are top of the world. They wouldn’t make the call unless their intelligence was crystal clear that Trump doesn’t have a chance.
Perhaps. But at minimum there would still be some server necessary for discovery purposes.

$85k a year is surely enough to live off without working?

I'm in the UK, if I could earn a guaranteed £40k a year without working I'd be set for life and would have a pretty great life! That's would give me close to twice the national average salary.

£80k a year would put you into the tiny percent of top earners.

It doesn't help when major newspapers like the NY Times publish[1] (and then delete) garbage messages like:

Betfairs terms explicitly say projected winner of the ec. The definition of the bet is based on the media.
>Never stash

Er, no. Right tool for the right job.

Yup. pull --rebase --autostash for example. Technically also stashing, and would be insane not to use it :)

More serious note: agreed. I use stashing multiple times a day and never have problems with things being messy. Though I admit I usually look t stashed in a gui, not from the terminal.
Wow. Brings back memories as MSN was the messenger of choice during my college years :)
I was in the Army for 7 years and deployed 3 times. What does "actual warfare" look like? If what I experienced wasn't war, what is? You are minimizing the sacrifices that we and our combatants have made which is, quite frankly, disgusting.

The risks related to traditional warfare are incredibly high, not low, and risk will continue to grow as technology becomes the strongest variable in military dominance and success. Simply put, from now and well into the future, lethality will become greater. We can kill faster and with greater accuracy than we ever could in the past. Our capacity to kill is there -- just restrained.

The situation in Mexico [and further south for that matter] is dire and probably incredibly similar to that of Afghanistan after the Russians left. The cartels are the law. There is no effective form of government in Mexico.

The newspapers have prewritten obituaries for many famous people including the ex presidents. Perhaps the prime minister office had two prewritten congratulation notes, and the ghost image is just an old error and not a secret leak of a recent error.

Anyway, they should have been more careful.
If it’s outside your return period, you’re SOL usually. You may have a civil case over what could be argued as “crippling” the product, but it wouldn’t be as easy.
Most people don't print much. For typical home use, a printer might last 5 years printing 10 pages a month.

That's 600 pages in the lifetime of the printer, which is less than a single cartridge.

The real mistake people make is they don't realise they'll have to buy a new cartridge every 6 months because the old one has dried out.
Wow, that's some brazen humble brag from someone who cheerfully announced how his envestors got screwed.

The state of JavaScript at the end of 2020
It's not exactly the same but this article talks about a gay guy being banned for (supposedly) pointing out that there are very non-binary people in the world, and objecting to the idea that language should be changed to accomodate them:

https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/megan-fox/2019/10/19/t...

The article quotes some of his tweets on the topic.
If you don't want to go the USB route, put the printer on its own separate VLAN and/or Wifi network and filter all outbound traffic from that network at the router unless (1) part of a connection initiated from the other side and (2) aimed at another local host. Filter traffic going the other way (opening those connection) to taste - perhaps allow access only to the IPP port and certainly don't allow any inbound traffic to hit it from the wider world.

It's far from perfect - most importantly it doesn't stop manufacturers from making printers which only work if they have an always-on internet connection, and also doesn't stop a scheme where the proprietary Windows/etc drivers send the firmware as part of a print payload, but it probably works "enough" for now.

One other problem with this approach is that it isn't easily open to anyone non-technical.

Here's what a random person on the internet says:

> Paddy Power, BF [Betfair] acquirer, handles the betting for the BC Lottery; and as such is specifically precluded from offering bookmaking on its own.
But before this, BF had made the strategic decision of leaving all gray areas-- countries where it and/or betting wasn't specifically allowed. For one, jurisdictions where it was specifically allowed or applying to be-- could use such a violation as grounds for denial...US / NJ one example for sure. And in Canada sports betting is actually illegal, notwithstanding that the government will not go after individual players and hardly ever bothers any corporation.

>Or Michigan’s mail in ballots: https://austingwalters.com/the-dead-vote-in-michigan/

So the author turned up a grand total of... 5 "dead" voters, in a state where biden has a lead of 148,635 votes. That's unlikely to make a difference. The comments to that post also said it was likely a data-entry/clerical error, which makes the story even worse.

>Basic argument is the house sets the rules. Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court had not right to extend the deadline.

I find this argument unconvincing. Laws set by the state legislature is normally bound by the courts. If we go with the literal interpretation, it would also mean that the legislature can enact a law saying "only white men can vote" and the courts wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

> This market will be settled according to the candidate that has the most projected Electoral College votes won at the 2020 presidential election.

So unrelated to the actual certification process.
At the end of 2015, Betfair merged with Paddy Power who help(ed) the British Columbia Lottery Corporation run the BC lottery so maybe there was a conflict of interest or inability to easily offer bookmaking services there at the same time?

This is really the key issue here. Passwords are fine if you give people some place to keep them.

>...it became widely acknowledged that passwords should be highly complex in order to maximize their entropy and, thus, substantially increase the amount of time it would take to crack them.

This is only true if people reuse the same password for different sites. Otherwise the site can rate limit brute force attacks to the extent that even completely trivial passwords are OK.

I dunno, it seems that in most cases second factor auth is not really needed. We need to address the actual problem, not attempt to paper it over by dumping stuff on top. The "let's just let the phone company do the identity stuff" approach is a good example of failing to deal.
Micron Ships World's First 176-Layer NAND: Gains in Performance and Density
This is very much different for a few reasons. First of all, the issue is purported wide-spread fraudulent activities, of which there is no evidence. Second of all, we're not talking a few hundred votes in a single county of a single state. We're looking at multiple routes to defeat for Trump by thousands or ten's of thounsands of votes.

Effectively what this is, is yet another misinformation campaign by our President who refuses to accept what is happening. That said, he's technically in his right to ask for recounts and file lawsuits.

I made the mistake of buying an HP printer years ago. But I found a 'neat trick'. You can subscribe to the free Instant Ink program using a test credit card, i.e. a number from https://developer.paypal.com/docs/payflow/payflow-pro/payflo.... And ~2 days later you have ink sent to your door. Fuck you HP.
"Unquestioned market dominance.", not really.
How’s the ink life? As in: does it “dry up”? Because inkjets have a tendency to do that over time.

This is what people seem to be missing. Amazon has the unique insights into sales, CTRs, search results and so on.

They are not a simple competitor to your product/brand, they are the super-charged competitor who knows everything about your business AND can simply favor itself in search results, recommendations and so on.

The balance is missing.
That's not my lived experience here in New England. We were taught from history books in school. My friends still read now. We turn to researched-based election projections that are not directly tied to network news as we wait until the States certify their vote counts in due time.
Yes, maybe if we keep trying very hard, someday we will also have books in America. (?)

I'll read more about it, but the thickness/stiffness of the cochlea resonates at frequencies with sensitivity that matches our ability to distinguish frequencies - it has been removed from the inner ear and resonance tested outside of the context of other processes.
Interesting that it doesn't explain some phenomena, but are the temporal theory and place theory mutually exclusive?

(Edit) After reading a bit more, it seems to make more sense that it's a combination of both, as the resonance on the cochlea is likely not 100% accurate, and conversely the impulses from peaks would tend to be around the areas of resonance, so rather than being mutually exclusive it makes sense these two effects work in parallel.

Modern research suggests that the perception of pitch depends on both the places and patterns of neuron firings. Place theory may be dominant for higher frequencies.[4] However, it is also suggested that place theory may be dominant for low, resolved frequency harmonics, and that temporal theory may be dominant for high, unresolved frequency harmonics.[5]

Are you referring to the "scan this QR code to verify your partner's key" function in secure messaging apps? I definitely use that. I try to keep all my primary contact's keys verified. It's harder during COVID when you're not meeting up in person as often, because anything besides meeting in person and verifying the two devices directly exposes you to another unverified channel.

It's very hard to bootstrap this stuff. Sure, "web of trust" but that's hard too. Speaking of which, didn't Keybase get bought by zoom to help with exactly these issues?

We don’t currently know what their salaries are, but it’s pretty common for startup salaries to be 50-60% of normal salaries. The rest is typically LLC stock grants. It’s done this way with the promise of “when we sell” those stock holders will make bank. $80k isn’t ‘bank’. Especially if Baremetrics was following the startup-standard salaries.
It is indeed highly disturbing, especially when the reaction to pointing this out is so hostile. It is borderline Orwellian.
Because in practically all previous elections (except for maybe 2000), the declaration of the media was the end of the process. We never had every vote counted by that point, but we did know who won based on the counts that had come in and math. This year the count was just slower due to so much mail-in balloting, which everyone was warned about. The "official" election was simply a rubber stamp.

This whole thing with lawsuits is just Trump throwing a tantrum that he lost.
> I'd say the definition is whatever definition

No, the definition of industry terms is the way they would be understood by other people in the industry. Seeding is understood to be critical data such as area code lists and timezone information.

You're not wrong. Seeding _is_ automatic database setup, just not only for test systems.
it's largely because many US schools focus almost entirely on historical events, rather than functional interpretation and study of the constitution and legal system from the perspective of current modern society.

Both are necessary, our education system heavily leans to the historical side.

isn’t quite right. He needs PA and any two of NV/GA/AZ.
Even Fox News is distancing themselves from Trump & co now, interrupting his (campaign team's) speech when they bring up election fraud - instead of doubling down on the accusations like they would be expected to.

Rats leaving the sinking ship, I'm guessing. They know it's over, and that the lawsuits are formalities at best (often dealing concretely with just dozens of lost ballots and the like, although Pennsylvania's lawsuit could still be interesting (they want the mail-in ballots received after the 3rd (but postmarked at or before the 3rd) to be dismissed. It won't change the election results at all though, those votes have already been kept separate and not yet considered, pending the lawsuit.
