I've had similar experience with the ESP-IDF, with racey bugs in certain parts and broken i2c, etc. Though turns out most of those were due to their v4.1 branch being listed as stable (AFAICT) but it's actually pretty broken. Switched to v4.0 and everything works. Still it's open source and the dev's will respond to GitHub issues.

Overall I'd say it's not too bad, or not so much worse than other chips. It seems every piece of embedded hardware will have quirks and the SDK's will have pain points. From what I gather and my limited experience, it's more a matter of how many and how severe. I prefer at least an open source SDK where it's possible to share patches with the broader community. From what I gather here and elsewhere the only other open source SDK's are for the Nordic chips.

P.S. the esp32's ADC supposedly has terrible calibration issues.

>To me, beyond what it is capable of handling - means that the system gets damaged - not the people that it is treating

I think your definition of "what they are capable of handling" (for some reason I can't reply to your other clarification of this definition) isn't one that many people would think is a good one. It may be technically correct in some domain, but this isn't it. Healthcare systems are there to provide healthcare for people, and if they can't do that (as in this situation) then they are incapable of handling it. In addition (in the UK at least, can't speak for anywhere else), this has led to not only ICU capacity being exceeded, but also routine healthcare being diminished - either because of people being unable to visit a hospital, or unwilling to do so.
Yes it was. We've had disinformation since at-least the cold war. Probably the best example is the idea that AIDS was created by the U.S. government.

The New York Times made a great documentary on disinformation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tR_6dibpDfo

Well worth a watch IMO
Don't lobby. go to your local caucus and change it from within. Note that I said Caucus: even in a primary state there is some form of caucus where the party decides things. You want to be in this system, this is where the party platform is decided on. This is where the people who are working behind the scene to elect someone make the plans. In turn this is where politicians go to find people who will work for them. Which in turn means this is where you can have a one-on-one meeting from the standpoint of someone important to listen to. (when you spend a few Saturdays knocking on potential voters doors for someone that someone listens to you)

If both parties get anti-DRM legislation into the platform in random places you can be assured they will listen. If both parties see their big supporters as against something they will listen. Politicians do not want money, contrary to what you might think: they want a power, and in this country that means they need votes. Money (for ads) is one way to get votes, but real humans doing real work is at least as powerful.
Naaaah, instead of that they've decided to get rid of senior employees with huge generational knowledge.

Documenting bugs is providing a lot of value already.

It would be also inefficient for you to spend time learning how the tool works, setting up the environment etc. when there are people who know it already.
Yeah I missed that. Thanks..
> Can't you just set up your mailserver so that it drops all the crypto headers (DKIM-Signature, ...) after verifying them and storing the result in Authentication-Results?

Matthew Green's ask isn't about protecting users that are tech-savvy enough to just set up their own mailserver and configure it a special way.

It's about protecting the billions of users that aren't.
Sounds like the "If you've got nothing to hide, you've got nothing to fear" argument. Not very compelling.

In a similar vein, see[0] which talks about rewrite systems from a more formal viewpoint. On the practice side, GHC performs rewrite rules[1], an example of which is

"map/map" forall f g xs. map f (map g xs) = map (f.g) xs

Combining two calls to map into one. While this seems silly, terms like this can arise as a result of other compiler optimizations. GHC can even remove intermediate data structures[2] entirely, so writing factorial as

factorial n = product [1..n]

would result in an efficient first-order program without the list at all. Another example of where rewrite rules come in handy is linting[3]. It does seem that a lot of these rewrites are possible only in a pure language, otherwise the compiler would have to resort to analyzing side-effects.

Yelp, to restaurants: we get a commission on Grubhub orders.

Restaurants, begrudgingly: fine

———

Yelp, to users: click here to order through Grubhub

Yelp, to customers: or just use the restaurant’s phone number to order yourself. [shows you a number that isn’t the restaurant’s]

——

Yelp is effectively telling users that a number belongs to the restaurant when it doesn’t. I’m sure yelp’s lawyers would say they aren’t actually telling any users that the restaurant’s number belongs to the restaurant, but come on. It’s clear that the intent is to mislead.
I don't take near that much, but it still seems to work. I haven't had a flare for over a year.

I am curious to know why countries didn't buy large quantities of vitamin D and distribute them to all people? Wouldn't that be cheaper and more effective than complete lockdowns, full hospitals, etc.?
But it does show that you cherry-picked data that didn't give the full story. The follow up comment only made things more clear, which I think you should appreciate.
Courage is not the lack of fear, but the conviction that something else is more important than fear.
There are a whole host of issues that stem from industrialization that are complex and require organized and disciplined action in order to contain. Cohesive action by the entire community of industrial nations is just not on the table at this point without some absolutely massive dislocation of economics or political power. Force is going to be required for change or desperation is going to force compliance. I can only assume based on history that this will all come to force of arms before any other rational solution (systemic enough that it will a difference) is pursued.

I just don't see any road forward without a horrifying body count. It is not impossible to avert that future, it just seems vanishingly improbable.
> if two points are separated by an interval equal to C

If d = c, I don't think it determines the values of x, y, z, and t. What if x = 2c, y = z = 0, and t = 1? Unless I'm not following your logic correctly. In my recollection, for two given points in spacetime, d is invariant but the values of x, y, z, and t depend on the observer's frame of reference.
Good points.

> I wonder what portion of the internet you have to scrape to be able to have good results for 90% of queries.

But this is it. I don't think it'd be too hard to get 90% of queries right. It's the 10% that are the challenge.

"Page rank" / "link juice" (amount/strength of incoming links) is still a main ingredient in Google's recipe, so they are actually able to determine, without manual intervention (more or less), which sites are "reputable", while your suggestion would require someone to curate the assortments of "reputable" sites.

How would you discover niche blogs? Or even more high profile ones, just not known to the major public?

That said, as you say, you could probably do with something like this for most of your day-to-day searches, and then just !g or whatever for the rest.
The slum tourism point is a good one to keep in mind but you’re a little unfair to the fishermen here. There are many fishermen who choose the life because it’s what they love. They aren’t toiling away in the mines to put a scrap of bread on the table—they’re out on the water, working in their community, captaining their own boat and doing work that is strenuous but fulfilling.
That just means they are less harmful, but still harmful.
I see a lot of people saying this must be illegal, and the reason Yelp hasn't been sued is because restaurant owners can't afford legal fees.

Isn't this the purpose of class action lawsuits? If Yelp is actually doing something illegal here, certainly, there's enough money to hire great counsel to represent all restaurant owners who are affected by this policy change.
Doesn't DKIM make it harder to blackmail or destroy someone with fake emails because they can show their lack of authenticity?

Shouldn't we privilege protecting people from lies vs protecting people from the truth?
Some of my family members work(ed) at a south-side Chicago hospital that treats mainly low-income black people. The hospital is shutting down because of the pandemic (or at least using it as an excuse to get out of a low-value market). The area already had poor healthcare access, and it will get much worse in the near future.

I feel a lot of well-off people are not considering effects like these, which will likely be quite large, when they weigh the long term consequences of our disease response. And it's weird to me that even the most progressive people in my life are happy to use grocery delivery and similar services that essentially transfer disease risk from privileged groups to poor minorities. It's like people don't have the emotional bandwidth to be worried about the disease and inequality at the same time.
I couldn’t understand how smart watering systems were so expensive.
I bought a TP-Link smart plug and a solenoid that defaults to off. It took 48v so I got a transformer, plugged it into the smart plug and wired up the solenoid.
Once this was done it was just a matter of making it smart.

I set it to water for 10 minutes after sunset in Home Assistant.

I’ve always intended it too hold off if it rains, but our weather forecasting is too inaccurate for that so have been messing about with soil moisture sensors, but haven’t had success yet.
They may not die, but I'd bet a lot of them want to leave, or will have significant psychological trauma after dealing with this.

The UK NHS is recruiting at the moment, in the most visible campaign I can remember. I'm wondering if this is linked - certainly I wouldn't want to be faced with the upcoming winter in a medical role dealing with this, given what happened in March to June this year.
Where do I spend it wise one
This is really just normal life for a lot (most?) people.
I am not a lawyer, but I do not believe that DKIM provides repudiation specific to an individual. DKIM provides evidence that email originated on an email provider. The users neither own nor control the server and user accounts get compromised all the time as well as fake accounts created all the time. Google battles this daily. DKIM might be one piece of information, used in combination with a client IP address and some method of proving who was at that client IP address at the time, but I do not believe that DKIM could stand on its own.

For example, I have servers that DKIM sign emails. If a person uses my servers to send a death threat, the FBI is going to want web access logs and smtp logs.
That's fair. Do you know whose story would have been awesome, the Polgar sister's, specially Judit.

Their story demonstrates 2 things.

Within an specific limited discipline, "genius" can be manufactured if specialized long training and time is invested since childhood.

Individual variability still matters a lot. Out of all the 3 sisters, Judit was the only who went to become a truly world-class player.
If that ends up in favor of RIAA, that will be a very chilling precedent: that when a client-server application has a UI to perform a client-side translation of user i/o into a more readily transmissible format, you are authorized only to interact with the UI, and you must not touch the translation thereof, at least if the application is handling copyrighted material.
I don't believe that Github actually needed the EFF's writing for this, or that they don't have the necessary technical expertise themselves. That is probably rather a protective assertion not to lose face. But at least they seem to have learned something from it now and want to review such requests technically before they (unjustifiably) act.
If messages are batched, would there be any performance advantages over Kafka/Pulsar/etc with thread-per-core architecture? The context switching cost would be amortized?
Another consideration apart from my other response is cumulative flatness: Over any sufficiently short distance, let's call it X, that portion of the earth is indistinguishable from "flat" While the distance X[1] + X[2] might begin to exhibit a degree of curvature, you can take the distance between the midpoint of X[1] and X[2] and come up the same distance X, thereby bridging the very minor curvature of X[1] + X[2] with a span of flatness. In this way, any arbitrarily long distance can be treated as flat by chaining together the successive midpoints of X[1...N].

This is the theory of Non-Intuitive Cumulative Flatness (NICF) and is indeed rather ground breaking. The rugged persistence of flat-earthers over the years demonstrates that their claims must have some validity, and yet every last bit of empirical evidence refutes their viewpoint. NICF offers a unified theory of flat-curved earth geometry, much the same way that science has tried to bridge the gap between general relativity & quantum physics, to bridge these two contradictory theories and thus, demonstrate the earth to be both curved & flat.

Methods & applications that may take advantage of both geometries are currently underway. Most notably, finding the edge of the flat geometry would allow launching of space vehicles under significantly lower escape velocities, at which point the vehicle could transition to the curve geometry.

Softbank is highly interested, and a > $1billion funding round may be closing shortly after a successful MVP demonstration using a highly modded version of Kerbal Space Program.

Well an mRNA vaccine isn’t supposed to directly modify your DNA. But we really don’t know enough to be sure. We don’t know all of the pathways in the body. It could very well be that mRNA floating around in your cell does have an effect on your DNA. We know that some organisms do reverse transcribe from RNA to DNA. There is no long term testing of this stuff.

It also introduces the possibility of transcription errors and such. You inject the mRNA expecting it to be synthesized into antigens but it could end up creating something else altogether. Again, we don’t have decades of testing to be sure. We’ve never injected millions of people with mRNA.
Saying that isn't going to stop the news from running a story about the one healthy young person who died from it. The only way to counter this sort of disinformation campaign from the media is to individually tell the story of the 99,999 other healthy young people who got it and we're fine.
> You don’t need to eat the volume of it most people do

The push for food companies to remove fat and replace with sugar would contribute. Fat will make you feel full. Everything is low fat and uses high fructose corn syrup to make it taste good.
And this is just one (extreme) instance of “person A pays person B to destroy person C's value, for net harm”. Imo, the only failing of capitalism is that one can profit by destroying other people's wealth (though this is probably splitting hairs, given how varied the ills that come from that).

Everybody has their price. For some people, it's low enough that they'll actually do the evil things and not lose sleep over it.
CFAA covers unauthorized access to computer systems - the only case I know of where CFAA was used to prosecute something akin to a DMCA 1201 claim was Sony suing Geohot for putting a tweezer to the RAM on his PS3. It's a novel legal strategy (in case you don't think DMCA 1201 is broad enough), but it was never entirely litigated in court as Geohot settled the case. I still don't think it would have passed muster in court, as it was akin to arguing that someone had violated the CFAA by hacking into their own computer that they forgot the password to. (Either that, or Geohot was poking at PSN and Sony knew this - I never followed that particular case thoroughly)
Why is your IT department allowing personal system-updates and need to write emails about it?
The high unemployment was because of how the US structured the spring legislative response. Businesses were ordered to close, and that made employees eligible to collect unemployment insurance. A federal program paid those unemployed people $2400 a month (in addition to their unemployment insurance).

The US poverty rate went down during the period. So it wasn't a lack of welfare protection, it was just a (likely bad) implementation choice, paying individuals instead of paying businesses to keep them on payroll.

The lack of response since that expired in July fits your description though.

If you are saying he would be top 1% in the general population, sure, but I don't think you can define that as great. If you are saying top 1% of people who actually play basketball regularly, I think you are wrong... he isn't going to be better than any one who plays highschool level or better, and will be average at best on an adult rec-league team.

I would certainly not call someone who is only top 1% in of the general population great... 1% of the world's population is 70 million people... there are an estimated 27 million or so software developers, so more than half of the top 1% of software developers in the world don't even write software. I would hardly call them great.
You're assuming no one has compromised the old keys. If that has happened, a blackmailer can forge old emails with proof of things you didn't do.
It seems like this would also be useful for proving contracts/statements over email in business law. While it may not have been designed for this purpose (and there could still be claims that the sending account was hacked, unlike a personal GPG key which identifies the individual rather than the infrastructure), it seems to be a pretty good thing to have.
The average age of people in many of those areas is much lower than the united states or europe. I think a lot people are getting covid but not dying.
Not really. Copied it from somewhere else where the placeholder value was 7. 1 came to my mind before 0. Zero seems like it could be UB.
I feel like the problem is already fully-realised in this case, so you can't "nip it at the bud" but have to stop the full-form yes? That goes along with "cutting it off at the head" moreso in my opinion.
An awful lot of tools provide the opportunity for their users to break the law, and yet we still sell those tools and place the onus of following the law on the users. While guns are the obvious example, lockpicks are widely and freely available, as are a whole host of other items with which one could commit nefarious deeds.

Copyright law seems to be one of the only areas in which the fact that someone Could use a tool to commit a crime seems to be grounds for criminalizing the tool and not the act.
In general, the further back you go, the less practical it would be for most people to avoid going into an office if they wanted to remain employed and to avoid doing most of their shopping in-person.
That's because current lenses correct field curvature so that the image plane is flat. This takes extra glass and can degrade image quality.

If you could have a sensor with the correct curvature for the focal length of the lens, you don't need to correct field curvature anymore, which means that you need less glass and have higher quality.

If you have the wrong curvature for the focal length, some field correction will still be required, which defeats the advantage.

In the real world, it's even more than just focal length that changes the required curvature.

I'm not a local, but wouldn't eat at a restaurant if it was staffed by people from that specific neighborhood documented in the submitted web page. That's regardless of their ethnic background: they could be milk-white Bulgarians.

I would expect them to show up in dirty clothes, and not having bathed in months, and neglect to follow basic hygiene like washing their hands. They would likely perpetrate actions like tasting food and putting the same utensil back into the pot, completely lacking the inhibition of refraining from doing whatever comes naturally.
