How about don't have public sector unions at all? - I don't like this idea. I like the protections that unions have brought for workers, I just think public sector unions need a new model.

How about having standards for government employees and firing bad ones? - There should definitely be a process for this, and I'm pretty sure there is, so it's more of a question of the process parameters, and then after firing, what kind of job can that person get? There's a history of bad cops being re-hired as cops or private security in other jurisdictions. (Not just cops, but that's the example here)

Maybe allow multiple police forces to compete and allow people to choose the one that polices their area and thus receive funding. - I don't like this one at all.

Maybe make police carry malpractice insurance and that way bad behavior has a cost, and those harmed are compensated. - Strongly agree with this one.

Same here with a 9 month old. I can tune out the general noise, but there are certain cries that 100% short-circuit my brain and dissolve any semblance of focus or ability to concentrate.

Some days, by the time baby is asleep my nerves are just utterly shot by trying to concentrate around the crying.
I feel one could argue most of the algorithms are just showing what's most popular though. No?

It's tricky I guess to draw a line. But maybe it doesn't need to. All it means to consider it editorializing is that the laws and regulations of being a publisher now applies to you, and maybe for all these centralized user content platforms it should? No matter their UX?

That would mean those platforms would be liable for copyright, defamation, privacy, negligence and publicity issues that they publish, even if the content is written by their users.

I'd consider platforms that just enable peer to peer type conversation, like email, text message, what's app, where you need to explicitly send your post to other people, could be exempt. Those are clearly communication platforms. But any platform that aggregates content into one place for you to consume top to bottom, feed like, etc. I feel could just be considered a publisher.

For example, if there was a book company who told people: Send us 144 character long snippets, and we'll put them all in a book collection and publish them, they'd be considered a publisher. So maybe this is true of Twitter as well? What does the digital format change here?

This to me wouldn't preclude the sharing of information on the internet, it just means a user who wants to publish something that a "publishing" platform refuses to publish would need to do so themselves, procure themselves a website and publish the content on it. And then search engine or other site aggregator could let users find the content. This would make the user personally liable to copyright, defamation, privacy, negligence and publicity issues off course, but that's what we want: some accountability. If you're telling lies, defaming, providing dangerous and negligent advice, infringing copyright, or advertising for a political party, you should be made accountable for it. In a weird way, the current social platforms are a loophole, the user isn't accountable, and the platform isn't, so its the wild west.

Another option is, if you want to be a platform for publishing, I think you could have it that, take twitter, there is no public feed of feed, but users can use it to publish their own material to their followers. But as a user choosing to publish, Twitter would need to perform full KYC due diligence and make your information about how to reach you public. More similar to what a merchant on Amazon goes through. Then it be clear that if you follow X it is X that is publishing, not Twitter, and it is still possible to take X to court as Twitter has done a full diligence KYC and made available enough information to do so. Thus making an easy platform for "self-publishing" but not shielding the user's who use it to publish from accountability of what they publish.
Certain hardware does not have accelerated video decoding on mainline Linux. In particular, ARM chips with a rockchip VPU. Pinebook Pro is one such device.

SF used to be about 780k in 2010, before the pandemic, it was over 880k, so it is reverting back to 2010 levels...

It is not alarming right now, but if the trend continues next year, it is going to be a major problem for the tax revenue. Raising taxes will not help in stoping the bleeding and make things worse... (SF is a city of renters, and they can easily leave)
I really like the context menus in GIMP. Much less mouse travel than trying to hit the top of the window or screen.
This isn't a decoder, this is an interface. The benefits of stateless decoding are simpler hardware, and more flexibility in decoding (among others).
The quote is about the information architecture, i.e. the mechanisms behind widespread disinformation: social media platforms that allow users to live in a bubble. Of course they are not literally The Internet, but many non-technical people experience it this way.

From what I can tell this will be able to take advantage of hardware acceleration, for that matter I'm not sure that software decoding will be supported at all. The novel point here is the stateless part.

Your sentiment implies that high earners are a necessary thing, or even something that should be optimized for, for “better” outcomes.

Better means different things to different people. An artist, an old-money socialite, a tech bro, and a blue-collar worker all have varying definitions of the word “better.”
I also prefer DDG's user interface over Google's. And DDG's !bang search shortcuts.

DDG has been my default search engine for years and its results are good enough for me 95% of the time. I only need to use Google as a fallback when searching for niche technical information or "needles in haystacks".

Pytorch (deep learning) for Go
I wouldn't be surprised if JaneStreet open sources an internal tool soon-ish. They've actually been writing a number of custom plugins and modules for WireShark to support internal custom protocols and seem to have a lot of features they'd like that aren't currently present in WireShark.
Sorry, in my mind even that is closing your eyes and expect nobody to be able to see you.

I'm pretty sure insurance companies, three letter agencies, and anyone else with a vested interest will make sure to have a copy of as many of these as they can get their hands on. And you won't be able to rely on yours not being in any of these stashes.

It is relevant to the improved battery tech problem however and makes the task less huge. Wind is also fairly reliable in that the day night cycle alone creates it since it is created by temperature differentials. Across a broad area it is impossible for there to not be wind short of being messed with by hyperadvanced aliens scenarios like ensuring all areas of the earth are being heated equally.

I thought this for a few seconds and then realized these sorts of benchmarks are lacking obvious controls (i.e. compiling for different architectures as noted by others).

If you want a more realistic sense of how the M1 performs relative to x86 peers in raw, equivalent workloads, there are some cinebench numbers appearing out there:

https://hexus.net/tech/news/cpu/146878-apple-m1-cinebench-r2...

I am way more interested in non-accelerated, deeply out-of-order instruction processing capabilities if we are talking about a "new era of computing". Being able to compile to ARM faster than x86_64 and having super fast HW codecs for processing special unicorn byte streams are not very compelling arguments in this context.

Show me an ARM chip scaled up to the same power+price budget as an Epyc 7742, throw them both at a 24 hour SAP benchmark, and then I will start paying attention if the numbers get close.

Yes it does, you set it in System > General Setup: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/config/general.ht...

Then it will automatically register them in DNS with that name: https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/services/dns/reso...

> The domain name from System > General Setup is used as the domain name on the hosts.

Then in the DHCP configuration, you set the domain name as well (defaults to using the general setting): https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/services/dhcp/ipv...

> Specifies the domain name passed to the client to form its fully qualified hostname. If the Domain Name is left blank, then the domain name of the firewall it sent to the client.

The client will automatically try adding the domain when looking up hostnames. Normally on Linux the FQDN is not specified in /etc/hostname but only in /etc/hosts.
Are you agreeing or disagreeing with the parent post or my post above.

From my perspective, it seems like you come to the same conclusion.

While you say that "Unfortunately mask compliance on this side of the pond has largely been a result of government intervention" it is also clear that non-compliance is largely a result of government intervention, eg Trump and others failing to encourage mask use, and both side weaponizing the issue.

He knows it’s ridiculous, but you’re going to see a large group of people who hate macs take this turn of fortune quite poorly. My hope is that it really puts pressure on intel to start firing on all cylinders but who knows? A MacBook Pro 16 with higher clocks and more gpu cores would be a really hard system to not buy.
I've also been curious about this, specifically how to apply a set of labels to what is essentially a time series of frames.
Recreational fishing was closed state-wide in Washington State for about a month as part of the initial lock-down. Granted it wasn't closed that long but the damage to 'follow the science' credibility was done. There were protests and public ridicule which probably led to the quick turn-around.

> but our deaths seem to be ~1k per day

1) Most mild and asympthomatic Covid-19 cases were mostly ignored back in March 2020.

Now more Covid cases are, actually, tested.

That is why "new cases" are significantly higher.

2) Big share of the population already has immunity against Covid-19 (because they were exposed to Covid earlier this year).

That is why deaths from Covid are much lower.

I got the Dell XPS 13 with Tiger Lake (non-developer edition) and while it's very good, I dislike the lack of more than one USB port and Ethernet. It worked fine on Linux, but it required a recent Kernel for the distro to find its disk.

I don't know what comes with the Thinkpad you're looking, but make sure you get one with the newest Tiger Lake graphics, it's significantly better than Ice Lake and miles better than the 14nm stuff.

Perhaps it was better for him to say, "There's a better way to do it than DDG" than "We can do better than DDG" as if he's about to do it when in fact he's waiting for his revenue to go up.
In theory, this is the kind of thing that the GPL v3 was trying to address: roughly speaking, if you host & run a service that is derived from GPL-v3'd software, you are obliged to publish your modifications.

But, I agree with you - and I don't think the author had really thought through what they were demanding, they made no mention of licensing other than singing happy praises of FOSS as if that would magically mean you could trust what a search engine was doing.
Yes, that's the whole point. SNAP and directed subsidies are decidedly NOT the same as government prices-setting. The analog in healthcare is targeted subsidies for poor people that cannot afford care, not government negotiation and price setting.

Making sure everyone has access to healthcare is, for the most part, a universally held goal. The disagreement is whether the only way to achieve that is through government price controls.
> as most fossil fuel and nuclear power can't be easily or efficiently ramped down either.

Ramping it down is irrelevant, you can always use the extra to process aluminium at cheaper rates, pump water back in reservoir, etc. The ramping up is critical, as you expect the light to turn on when you flick the switch, not 3h later.
I received mine about 3 weeks ago. It was the same for me as you describe, got an email with "we are about to ship your device you will receive notification from DHL" or something similar. Then it took another 2 weeks or so, and I received a notification directly from DHL that my device will arrive in 4 or 5 days (I think it came even faster like 2-3 days). Anyway, I wouldn't be worried, it seems after that initial notification you are only notified once the tablet it's already on its way.
"[a] person is privileged to use such force as reasonably appears necessary to defend him or herself against an apparent threat of unlawful and immediate violence from another."[1]"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-defense_(United_States)

In England it's got what I think is clearer definition:

"Force is reasonable if a reasonable person would think it necessary to use force and would have used the same level of force as the defendant."

As far as I'm aware these definitions apply to police officers.
They need to use another approach. Its spying.
great job, can you give me some resources to get in touch with the field of automated design because I want really to see the potential of using technics such as AI and DL for creation or optimization tasks.
Sure, more interesting than just pure CPU performance will be improvements to GPU, image processing, ML and others though - at least in my eyes.

If we'll just look at geekbench's single core bench, I'm sure Apple will still lead. (And overall likely still produce the better chips.)

Pretty suspect line of reasoning when you apply it to literally any other scenario.
But the email is already like this. It's the inbox providers who choose what domain is legit and new domains start from negative rating. Treating the web the same way doesn't sound too unnatural.

It would be bad if those in the positions profit by "authorizing" who is good though.
Agreed.

What I was trying to get at is that the ARM designs plus the TSMC fabs are a big part of Apple's success here. The pieces are out there where someone else could put together an ARM based package that's more competitive with Apple. In retrospect, maybe it's more likely to see something like this from Nvidia than Qualcomm.

Even then, it's hard to say how competitive that CPU would be. Just based on Microsoft's Surface with it's half-assed Qualcomm CPU, it seems feasible though.
> I don’t think this situation is Adobe or Apple’s fault, old stuff stops working at some point.

Old stuff stops working due to deliberate design choices made on both Apple and Adobe's parts. Apple deliberately stripped Rosetta and 32-bit support from macOS, and Adobe is deliberately making it nearly impossible to use older versions of the CS suite on their end.

Meanwhile, I can run Photoshop 6 on Windows or WINE, and I can still run binaries that were statically compiled for Linux 20 years ago today.

I can relate to the anxiety/firmware thing. I had never really experienced that sort of generalized anxiety before, but the weird thing for me was that it was preverbal. So I couldn't even put it into terms like "buried/lost somewhere"; it was more like a feeling. Like the feeling you would get in your stomach if you showed up to an important class one day completely unprepared for a pop quiz. Just that feeling, constantly. Luckily for me it was directly correlated with (lack of) sleep, so once that got better the feeling went away.
It's also an egg in the face for the pro-growth "YIMBY"s.

Thanks, that was a fun exercise :)
Thank you for this comment. In this conentious sub-thread, you addressed the root of my comment directly without adding to the outrage, which is much appreciated.

you would probably benefit from having black perspectives. Otherwise you convey an undertone that outcomes for blacks are for white people to choose. The message we want to teach kids is deeper than racism is bad.

Counterargument to this: we all have a certain extent of power and influence on those around us. The target demographic for these books is to teach people who aren't discriminated against about racism. Wouldn't it make sense to show a story about a display of personal power and influence to make the world a better place? The outcomes of blacks, whites, and everyone else depends on how we all influence each other, not just how we influence ourselves.
The "rule" doesn't exist in English either.

Most of the people complaining about the passive have either serious trouble identifying a passive at all, or can't construct an argument why it's bad to save their lives, as amply demonstrated by Geoffrey Pullum. http://www.lel.ed.ac.uk/~gpullum/passive_loathing.pdf Section 2 is a bit technical, but the rest is a great read.
The way I'd code a better search engine is I'd design an ML model that's trained to recognize handwritten HTML like this, and only add those to the index. It'd be cheap to crawl probably only needing a single computer to run the whole search engine. It'd resurrect The Old Web, that still exists, but just got buried beneath the spammy SEO optimized grifter web over the years as normies flooded the scene.

Do other search companies disclose that they share data with the FBI, NSA, etc in their ToS? Genuinely don't know.
GTM is usually the wedge that marketing uses to pry its way into a site's code without engineering involvement, and thus blocking GTM will often prevent a huge list of other trackers, ads, and late-loading content changes from being loaded.

All H.264 (and other CODECs) prediction are covered. As stated correctly in previous comment, userspace do the bookkeeping.

People should not write as they speak, nor, usually, speak as they write. That they should is a favorite fallacy of schoolteachers.
