Found a hidden storage room in the wall next to a kitchen in a church when I was younger.

A friend of mine showed me a room he found under their house in a basement(which isn't common in South Africa) in the storeoom he found a bunch of unlicensed firearms. Think they belonged to his dad, but there were so full of dust even if the police had found them they might have thought they belonged to a previous owner.
But it has different user-experience, different sync-backends, and in general enough things to be of high importance.
It was a list of names long before it was considered "a string array".
As others have pointed out, you explicitly have to turn it on and install a local exposure notification app for the feature to even be enabled.

But I would also suggest you learn how this feature works in the first place, it's an interesting design that makes clever use of Bluetooth and cryptography. It's likely much more private than the way you have your device set up right now.

The complete specs, including what is being broadcast over Bluetooth and the cryptography used to preserve privacy, are available here (the Google and Apple system are one and the same): https://www.google.com/covid19/exposurenotifications/#exposu...

These are pretty technical, but this is a good high-level overview: https://www.google.com/covid19/exposurenotifications/#grid-h...
> The Nix shell script installer is a one-time that you can rerun without it reinstalling Nix (it will just skip if it detects an already existent Nix). Guix reinstalls (and take forever doing it).

Wait, what? The Guix installer script also stops if it detects an existing installation, and has done so since the initial commit:

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/etc/guix-ins...

> You also need to make sure you import keys when installing Guix because security.

If you are complaining that the installer verifies the GPG signature of a file it downloaded from the internet, I don't know what to say. :-)

> Doing any package related thing will tell you about a failure to install locale.

This can happen when your installed locales are from a different glibc than what the guix-daemon was built with. Upgrading and restarting the daemon will solve it.

That said, I think the daemon recently got smarter about it.

> Guix should lean into this one major strength and put out an Emacs-centered heavily opinionated installer image that uses EXWM for its window manager.

The system installer disk image does give you an option to create an EXWM system (as well as GNOME, Xfce, etc).

Do you have an impacted wisdom tooth? Consider getting it extracted, even if it doesn't appear to be causing any problems. It can be the root cause of chronic migraines.
Because “when America sneezes the world catches a cold”.
The part about the username/password appearing before the cert warning sounds wrong. I distinctly remember that all the RDP packets went inside the TLS connection. Perhaps they just delay the cert warning until after RDP has been started? I'm sorry but it's been 14 years and I've tried not to look at RDP in the interim. You may revoke my "expert" status. :D I'd guess that even with TLS enabled you're still vulnerable to MITM since hardly anyone is going to use certs that can actually be validated against a root.
I guess routers were not able to handle that many packets back in the 90ies when the email was written.
So it is no longer a concern
I pay for YouTube premium, so I don't have ads. Still, I'm seeing many of the problems other people are talking about, especially 10 minute videos where the content could be explained in 10 seconds.
I can do it by ear. But then again, I lived under the AWACS take-off path for over a year.
The issue, is that we have not even got to the CCW "need" part. The issue is they are still battling out is: is public carry a right or a privilege? Currently the state views it legally as a privilege, per the last supreme court ruling, thus at the moment it does not fall under the purview of the 2nd amendment. And can be restricted not unlike a drivers licence as driving is a privilege. If that changes, then all states would be restricted from placing any requirements on the public possession of weapons. The problem is there is a lot of precedence dating back to at least the early 1800's on the restrictions of carrying in public. See my post above for details on the right vs privilege of public carry.

To be clear, the argument that is being played out is not on owning weapons, that has been decided. The argument that is being played out is does the spirit of the 2A incorporate a conferred right to carry in public. History and precedent dating back to the early 1800's says it does not. But there is that tricky "bare" part in the 2A as the spirit of the law would assume that they were not just protecting the right to "bare" them on one's own private property, given the pre clause about people needed to be armed so that the militias had a good supply of armed men, to ensure a free state.

On a related note, I see magazine restrictions as a more direct affront to the 2nd amendment. If they stand, then it can be abstracted to the amount (any amount) of ammunition can be restricted, which means the most restrictive states can and will outlaw everything, but single shot weapons to comply with the letter of the 2A rather than the spirit.
saw your post on indiehacker :)

looks like a very cool landing page / personal portfolio!
> Guix should lean into this one major strength and put out an Emacs-centered heavily opinionated installer image that uses EXWM for its window manager.

Wat?

While I live in Emacs I find it a terrible disservice to Guix to focus on this tiny niche. I'm probably biased, but one of the major strengths of Guix is its wealth of R packages that are all built reproducibly.

Ask different people about what they think is Guix's major strength and you'll get different answers, because Guix is pretty great in a lot of areas.

The installer script has seen some recent improvements and the interactive system installer as well. The annoying locales thing has also seen an unusual solution recently, so we're approaching a state where the initial impression lives up to the amazing day to day performance of Guix for package, environment, and system management.
I can well imagine for politically-unstable countries this is very good. Not really sure about the rest of the world!

Besides, one distant analogy: I remember reading how internet will revolutionise totalitarian governments, because it is an unstoppable river of information. Well, China, North Korea and Saudi Arabia are going strong regardless.

Bitcoin/eth are great, until some crony government introduces the death penalty for using it, or sth.

Yeah, it's not that easy to at the moment. I was planning to build a front-end site, where you could just type your search terms and parameters and it would show you the videos, but to honest I ran out of steam after I couldn't get the code to run on Lambda.
>Why would retired police have special access to this sort of permit?

Ask New Jersey. They explicitly allow retired LEO to have CCP. Meanwhile the law is so complicated and it's so unusual for even security guards to get a CCP that they sometimes get arrested anyway even with the permit: https://reason.com/2020/03/10/new-jersey-security-guard-arre...

> Sung—second in rank only to Sheriff Laurie Smith in the sheriff’s office—is accused of deliberately holding back four concealed carry weapons (CCW) permits for Apple’s security team until the Cupertino-based corporation agreed to donate 200 iPads worth about $75,000 to the Sheriff’s Office,

This is wrong on so many levels... why does Apple need CCW security personal ? how could Apple agree to pay bribery ? who is stupid enough to ask for bribery ?
because so many people were exposed to the topic through a resource (typically another person) who had little experience (or interest) in effectively teaching the subject.

I used to homeschool and one of my sons had terrible baggage about math by the time I pulled him out of public school when he was 11. And somewhere along the way, I learned that a lot of elementary school teachers are women who weren't doing well in math and got encouraged to go become an elementary school teacher because, basically, sexism is alive and well and the world goes "Oh, I know what a woman who can't cut it in college is qualified for: Dealing with small kids all day!"

So a lot of elementary school teachers are women who suck at math and were also never told 'Get over it and get a degree you want.' Instead, they were told 'Oh, go teach kiddies. That's what you are qualified for.'

And I know this is a gender difference in terms of the world treating men and women differently -- a social difference, not a biological one -- because I'm a woman who is good at math (or was at one time) and was married to a man who was terrible at it. No one ever told him (a career soldier) "Oh, go become an elementary school teacher!"

Instead, he got his wife to tutor him in college math even though he found it so difficult he threw his pencil across the room one day when I showed him the right way to do it and then I told him "You can be nice or go find another tutor."
I’d argue that the day of month is overwhelmingly described with a name corresponding to its 1-index.
Has anyone used this in production? How is the performance of IHP like?
Also I'm pretty sure the cost of ads to you depends on your person. The harder it is to get you to make irrational choices based on emotions evoked by ads the less it costs you to use ad driven services. If you are stoic enough to stop using Google services then I am certain Google ads barely affects you.

People say that ads work so of course you are affected by them, but I am pretty sure lots of people aren't affected that much by ads. Luckily for ad companies there are a lot of ad-whales out there, people who are very easy to influence and get money from. These are the same kind of people spending lots of money in free to play games, at casinos or who falls for MLM schemes.
> The same formula has been known to apply to those on the demotic right of the spectrum, too: the reader may have his or her own list of candidates for inclusion among the ranks of what could be called champagne populism.

False equivalence, since rightwing populists don't advocate wealth redistribution and preach egalitarianism.
Wondering if Huawei routers have backdoors backed in as well...
Why would anyone run an energy storage system for general population in that system? If they can undercut the energy companies at some times and sell to the Bitcoin miners, why would they even bother with residential customers?

Sure, people who can afford energy storage themselves would be sorted. (Most of the time) Anyone below that wealth threshold would be at the mercy of "am I more important than the monetary gain today".
Actually the Romans counted their months beginning with March:

March (1)
April (2)
May (3)
...
July (5) (named after Julius Caesar)
August (6) (named after Augustus)
September (7) ... etc.

The reason being in the ancient world all serious activity begins in the spring, especially war campaigns which were to be under the aegis of the god Mars, from which the name of the month.

Note that when we have a leap year we add the extra day to the end of the Roman year, that is at the end of February which is the last month of the year.

More precisely, we duplicate the sixth of the calends of March. This is why in French the leap year is called 'bisextile'.

> You can one-way hash the IP. So you can still look for pattern but you've lost the actual IP. And same one-way hash IP can block whichever IP seems devious in your firewall.

The plaintext space (amount of possible IPs, even more so for IP blocks) is so small that that you can try all the possible plaintexts within seconds, essentially reversing the hash.
Interesting. Can you confirm OSX has thread pool support in the kernel, in a way that affects thread scheduling in a non-trivial way?

Or is that kernel support only for message passing, callbacks, memory management, synchronization, logging or similar?

Nix doesn’t sandbox applications, it is basically only patches the ELF header so that it links to nix store entries instead of /usr/lib when it comes to shared libs.

So While I don’t have benchmarks, it is basically in the same ballpark as Arch programs.

> you'd think that Americans would start their friggin dates with the month, too

We... do? America writes dates such as March 14th 2020 as 3/14/20. ISO 8601 is of course superior but I like the month-first approach, because "the 14th day of" doesn't tell you anything until you know "March", it seems more natural.

Yes, though browsers have long been optimizing this by simply never processing mutation events unless the page has event handlers for them.
This reminds me of Dave Taylor's idea for "pinky processors". These were similarly minimal, relying on conditional branches to do much of the work. Taylor thought massive numbers of these clocked at high frequencies would deliver more computation than complex high-IPC processors. He was wrong, as the failures of the Pentium 4 and AMD's Bulldozer would later demonstrate, but at least he was ahead of his time.

Unlike Taylor's ideas, this MyNOR actually exists in the real world, which is all the more impressive considering how impractical it is.
(Edit: I'm talking about related videos here. Maybe that's not the same thing.)

5 to 10 years ago I would frequently get lost in Youtube's music recommendations, just going down one rabbit hole after the other with dozens of tabs of untrodden paths. Nowadays everything seems to loop you back to the same tightly knitted clusters of popular music. I suspect that if you were to graph the video recommendations, the resulting graph would be of a devastatingly low complexity.
I'm guessing the extremely expensive Norwegian labour costs make that viable? In Ireland, I never heard of sheep shearers being brought in from Australia or New Zealand (in fact the flow of young workers has been in the other direction since the 2008 crash).
I think the exception for the NHS is that it is a single government organisation fully paid for by regular taxes. Think about your armed forces, for comparison.

While there are many that don't have this kind of setup I don't know any country where care isn't free at the point of use. (Except for maybe your deductibles).
Plenty of L2 solutions already exist and can be used with Ethereum already. If your single comparison point is the existing banking and credit card payment networks, you can take a look at e.g, Raiden which is already deployed on mainnet and can scale with the number of the nodes participating in the network. Hundreds of thousands of payment transactions per second are already possible.

The main issue is that most of them still are very complex to get fully operational, there is no big consensus among users on "what-to-use-when" and they all require a non-insignificant cost to setup in terms of all the contract transactions needed to get in and out of the chain.

There is no reason to doubt that they be more mature along with ETH2 and that that L1-L2 will complement each other nicely.
> Same thing with comunism, I have known in my life people I would be slightly afraid to see holding power flying that banner and we all know what happened many times in history, and while this can be said of many ideology in my opinion the comunism cluster looks like it is trying to sweep the dust under the rug.

Having spent much of my early twenties embedded with some of today's more prominent socialist activists in the US, I can tell you that behind closed doors the only subject that ever crossed their lips was "power".

It was enough to terrify me off of such thoughts and ideals. All these years later and I still wake up in a cold sweat at night having nightmares about the people I knew getting what they wanted.

In fact now picture pair is equal - although some may look very similar. Some pictures may loop - but that is because we need to compare some conditions to the same "base" condition (e.g. size asymmetry from a C-Cup breast compared to an A-Cup and a B-Cup breast...so those two pairs are different, but the "base" of a C-Cup appears twice.
The study is designed that way so that we are able to cover every important breast condition in one survey.
I hope that explanation helps - thank you very much again for your support!

Well, I respectively disagree. Some actors want money, some want power. What I was trying to convey was that in the west, most actors want safety and prosperity and peace.

For example, these people from my country talk at length about the nitty gritty legal aspects of national security related law and how it is practiced by the Canadian intelligence community:

https://www.intrepidpodcast.com/podcast

Or the overworked RCMP officer I met that spent most of his time trying to find kids being trafficked for pornography. Or the guys I met in the US that were working on arms control of nuclear weapons. These people aren't using their considerable skills to make money, which they could clearly do on Wall St. They're focussed on making the world better and safer. These people literally work on arms control for WMDs and I fail to see how you can dismiss their efforts with a straight face.
> The endgame is that all energy companies will primarily be Bitcoin mining companies, feeding their excess renewable energy into the grid to power homes, etc.

Wasteful, why not put all their power output into Bitcoin mining then? Sounds like a version of the nano machines story multiplying and eating the planet, in this case for the sole purpose to mine Bitcoin, leaving a carcass of the Earth and nobody to spend those coins.

Proof-of-stake requires the majority of what is mined has to be sold on the open market. This redistributes mined coin to any user anywhere, rich or poor. If you mine and do not sell, you perpetually consume and fail in short order.

Proof-of-stake doesn't require this natural, market-driven redistribution. It exchanges it for an inflationary process that further separates the rich and the poor.

They're fundamentally different.
