Unless you are talking about profit sharing, you would probably offer the lowest amount that you knew you could get away with so that your chances of flipping a profit is maximized.

There is nothing right / wrong about this. It is just human nature / market dynamics. Companies do it all the time when they hire us.

Choose one of the following security options:

Full Security: Ensures that only your current OS, or signed operating system software currently trusted by Apple, can run. This mode requires a network connection at software installation time.

Reduced Security: Allows any version of signed operating system software ever trusted by Apple to run.

Permissive Security: Does not enforce any requirements on the bootable operating system.

Note: The Permissive Security option appears only when System Integrity Protection (SIP) is disabled. To disable SIP, start up your Mac in macOS Recovery, open Terminal, then run the command csrutil disable.
Newbie question. Why is this useful? Wouldn't slices be enough to fulfill the use-cases this would see?
Another: for X from 1 to 10, the digits of 9x will add to 9, and the leading digit will be x-1. You can do this visually by putting up all your fingers and putting down the Xth one - this splits your fingers into two groups, the first is the tens place digit while the second is the ones place digit.

Yep. That's the reality: you can have a "free speech zone" filled with the most awful stuff, or you can have a community of nice people. If you want a community you have to fortify it against the not-nice people.

Also not OP, but I use pass.

If I need to access accounts from a different machine I use termux and manually type it in.

I'm not worried about it being a single point of failure (Data loss wise), as I have the password store backed up in multiple places. Security wise, I'm trading out my brain as a single point of failure for pass being a single point of failure. I trust pass more.
The pedantic debate is because you refuse to acknowledge Occam's Razor has anything to do with the simplicity of a theory, not related to the specific example I constructed.

> Hossenfelder's argument is that there are many equally plausible (and equally speculative) ways

This is just not true. Most of the resolutions of the past required new conjectures like EP=EPR, whereas recent solutions rely on newer sort of uses of a path integral, but are still built up from basic QFT+GR.

Claiming agnosticism between those two theories is discarding Occam's Razor entirely, as the latter relies on constructing way less strong of assumptions and provides a believable mechanism for information preservation.

Isn't this the trusted network dialog in windows/etc when you connect to a new network?

If you don't trust the network, then the OS should be tunneling to a trusted one. If you do trust it then it can go ahead and use the DHCP/etc provided name servers.

After all it can decide to enable/disable access to services (windows filesharing for example) based on this, there isn't any reason it can't decide to trust the local nameserver too.
I waffle back and forth on this myself. I have done some "take homes" and whiteboard tests and I have also told some recruiters that I would not. What I will say is that I don't recall ever doing a task or test that was actually directly related to the job description.

I didn't ask for a summary of RNA biology. I asked what we do we know about the long term effects of RNA vaccines? Preferably in humans. But as they the vaccines are new and haven't been authorized for humans I am skeptical that we can say anything conclusive. So far you haven't named one thing that we know. "Lots" isn't an answer.

> What I do know allows me to conclusively exclude the possibility of the RNA in vaccines incorporating into the host genome (because that notion is simply not coherent).

You are just using a strawman argument that some conspiracy theorists have come up with. I never suggested that would be the case.

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/DOH-resolver-policy

Mozilla publicly lists the policies which TRRs contractually agree to. In addition to the above, the contracts (some of which have become public) also contain third-party audit requirements.

> What is the consequences if someone fails?

They lose their TRR status, presumably.

> How can the individual user who is giving away their private data exercise control and agency?

DoH is surfaced in Firefox, you can choose not to enable it, or you can choose to configure it to explicitly use any DoH endpoint your choose. On my network I use a Pi-Hole which talks to DoH on the backend and everything on my network is forced through the PiHole and all other DNS/DoH is blocked. You can use similar mechanisms, and Firefox surfaces preferences for DoH.

Just like any other decision, a sensible default which serves users needs to be made, and advanced users can configure things. Firefox chooses the sensible default of using encrypted DNS to trusted resolvers for users, and if you want to do otherwise, you are free to do so. Nothing removes your agency as a user.

> I personally do not think that is enough for me in regard to my own data. Where I live (EU) I at least got GDPR to use if my ISP decide to go rouge with my data. I also got a contract with the ISP. In additional my country have a few different government agencies that in theory could jump in. Neither of those would be an option if the data is shipped over seas.

Nothing in the current implementation ships data outside your jurisdiction. DoH is only enabled in the US pointed at a US-based provider (CloudFlare). There are numerous providers in the EU that may sign up to the TRR program as Mozilla gets to the point of rolling out DoH in Europe. This comment period gives them an opportunity to get feedback prior to getting to that point.

I think perhaps you should send them your feedback directly.

You bubble about scientific definition, and call people. And yet pose no real argument.
I don't think moderation is the problem-

The beauty of the age of forums was that you were forced to seek out communities to discuss similar interests or topics. People were forced to put in the effort to create them as well.

Now it is a bunch of people with nothing in common talking about nothing in particular.

Some argue that if you disable all of the default subreddits, for example, and switch to more of a whitelist model- the Reddit experience is much better.
That’s inference only.
You can ask the user to go to about:networking#dns and it will show Firefox's internal DNS cache. This is actually much more user-friendly today than asking them to open a terminal.

Here's a great in-depth news article from Science on a different carbonaceous chondrite strike, in Costa Rica, that touches on the same bargaining issue:

Sure... I'm just pointing out that reordering operands on a commutative operation doesn't really count as "multiple ways to do things."
If you run a custom DNS, don't have DoH running

How do I enforce that? How can I ensure that no javascript payload or "smart" device on my network or app on my phone is connecting to a DoH server, when they're on my home network?
I love this setup! I mostly used Macdown in college (and now obsidian.md).
Paying for something not to happen is different than paying for something in return. Obviously.
"Strangely" was my simplistic way of very briefly glossing over that history that those "prescriptive grammar" changes was a I feel strange period in the language where Classical Latin studies influenced a redirect of the language's course that shifted a lot of idioms from say their Shakespearean Middle English states for some weird idea that being more like Classical Latin was a good thing for English.
I see repeating conversations on a couple of forums I visit all the time, precisely because of the linear nature of the discussion. Nobody is going to bother to read the last 30 pages of dialog, when you have to skip pages and pages and pages of some random flame war between two guys who locked their horns over some irrelevant thing.

While on reddit/HN you just click [—] and skip whole subtrees of comments you're not interested in.
Reddit has one missing feature in particular that’s important for some number of online communities: being able to include images in a comment.
That's not an argument for throwing away the ability to search old information though. It's an argument for better metadata and better easy control over the search range. I may be looking for old information.

Yes, if I'm searching on a current tech topic or to solve some computer issue I'm having, I probably don't want anything more than a year or two old. However, I frequently want to research some historical content and it can be really hard to cut through the recency bias of search engines.
Hey, one of the DVC maintainers here!

TL;DR: I think it should be compared with the upcoming DVC feature - https://github.com/iterative/dvc/wiki/Experiments . Stay tuned - it'll be released very soon but you can try it now in beta.

First of all, congrats on the launch! I do really like the aesthetics of the website, and the overall approach. It resonates with our vision and philosophy!

Good feedback on experiments feeling heavyweight! We've been focused on doing great foundation to manage data and pipelines in the previous DVC versions and were aware about this problem (https://github.com/iterative/dvc/issues/2799). As I mentioned - Experiments feature is already there in beta testing. It means that users don't have to do commits anymore until they are ready, still can share experiments (it's a long topic and we'll write a blog post at some point since I really excited about the way it'll be implemented using custom Git refs), support for DL workflow (auto-checkpoints), and more. Would love to discuss and share any details, it would be great to compare the approaches.
Are there any AWS employees that can give us a sense of how much Rust is actually used internally?

Congrats on the launch.

I have built an open source tool (called hyperML) for similar problem sometime back.
I think the problem is not just storing in version control but being able to quickly retrieve those in live /test systems or containers.

Mounting and loading datasets and models is painful. It kind of what makes local training a better option.

If only the weights were version controlled by libraries (tf, pytorch or scikit) this whole problem will be much easier to solve.

Yeah, how dare they charge for storage, CPU encoding and bandwidth costs!

Anyway, you can deploy nginx with RTMP module on any server and host videos yourself. We did this for many video providers (which then moved on to YT because it turns out hosting costs money), but it's not that hard.

Same pathway as the author!

In high school, biology class meant memorizing modules of the human heart and pricking my finger to find out what my blood type was (I stayed home sick that day). "Loving biology" meant carrying around AP Bio books thicker than an unabridged Webster dictionary. No thanks.

Then later in college, my friend said it would be fun if we both took the genetics class he needed to take for his pre-med reqs. I agreed, and then bombed the class exam after exam.

One day right before Thanksgiving, when all the students are checked out, the profs got up and demoed their research.

They got up and showed us BLAST, the 3 GB human genome, and software tools to search the genome. Most importantly, these 2 professors, masters of the genetics universe as they were, made lots of mistakes while demoing the software. They "oops"ed their way through this and that and said it was ok because the human genome had just recently been sequenced and it was all still new.

"It's a UNIX system! I know this" popped into my head, and I promptly declared myself a biotech entrepreneur. After class I went up to the teachers and told them I would build them better software tools for genetics. Then I wrote every department in school I could find who used digital genomes to build them better tools. Tools for understanding the most important language the universe had ever written.

14 years later, in the wake of that realization is the first hackerspace for biotech BioCurious [1], an open source DNA copy machine OpenPCR [2], and lots of great work with the iGEM [3] and DIYbio [4] communities.

These days the fun continues as I'm engineering the biggest living system out there [5], planet Earth.

My go-to project for fiddling around in a new language is to write a hex dump utility. The goal is to replicate the output of "xxd -p -c 16 <thefile>", and perhaps allow a few more options.

So yeah, self contained puzzles like AoC, Project Euler, Rosalind, etc is the migration path. It's hard to find something reasonably educational and medium level to work on; meanwhile I'm not exactly free to arbitrarily switch to langX at work.

I'm also a roguelike fan and every year I think about trying out a very simple 7DRL in some language I'd like to learn, but without libtcod bindings I'd spend all the time working on i/o and display and not any actual game logic. However, something along these lines is probably my best bet for a medium educational "fun" project for language learning so I should figure out how to use libtcod from langX!

The puzzle projects do let me get familiar with parsing command line args, reading/writing files, splitting input and strings, etc. So that's definitely valuable.
both are digital services
both have accounts you can manage on your device

Yes different services, but there is significant chance of confusion. "login with your plex account".
The entire AMP design was driven by a desire to put Google in charge of publishing, heading off Facebook. Putting 1MB of render-blocking JavaScript in the critical path was never good for users - just ask the Chrome developers! - but it was a strategic play which fortunately failed both because it wasn’t as fast as claimed and most publishers didn’t want to cede control of their UX.
This is a shame for instances of Discourse that have valuable content. Discourse page loading time (at least for first load) are absolutely horrible, and I doubt that it's easy to fix them. This move, IIUC, will downgrade the page rank of forums that might be packed with useful, high quality information.

Or maybe it will add sufficient encouragement that Discourse gets faster :)
Everything about reporting this way is amazing, it’s an aspiring goal for on watchers of what data can provide. As you watch this you know that grant money is working hard here. Much respect for such a talented team bringing in complex engineering for all to consume.
This is ahem something I am not good at. Currently I use DigiKam[1] for general photos, but I don't include extensive metadata on files themselves.

All my resources are kept in a single directory, with subfolders generally using "lastname, firstname m" naming. I don't do as much cross-referencing (shortcutting) as I should, but that's also handled to some degree in the GEDCOM and full-text search of the filesystem.

Some things want an array of a specific size. If you have a function like https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/primitive.u16.html#meth...

pub const fn from_be_bytes(bytes: [u8; 2]) -> u16

you can't pass it a slice. This would let you pass a vector to this function.

Now, because this wasn't possible previously, it means many things take a slice, and then check that the length is the length they expect, because that ends up being easier for folks. Stuff like this helps it be able to be done properly.

(This specific function is one example that is done in this style, and it's a pain. I have real world code that looks like

let foo = u16::from_be_bytes([some_slice[0], some_slice[1]]);

This gets even worse with say, u128::from_be_bytes.)

I agree with most of what you're saying, but I worry that Youtube's effective monopoly means that there just aren't other hosting platforms with the same kind of user base and discoverability.

Perhaps their current pricing model is fair, I have no idea. But being the de facto video hosting site gives them tons of power. They have the ability to extract extra value out of their users---much more than a non-monopolized market would allow.
YouTube is excellent for learning. Documentaries, tutorials, lectures...

I don't know if this is a solvable problem that doesn't require boiling the ocean. Opportunistic TLS would work fine but if the authoritative server for some domain doesn't do TLS then you're kinda stuck.

It is one of the few audiobooks I completely gave up on. I'm usually pretty tolerant about how well Cold War stories are told.

Subtle, different, but irrelevant in this context. Apple needs developers as much as developers need Apple. There will never be a day where Apple boots all Indies from the App Store. They would just as soon change the policies on locking the doors on their retail stores at night.
> Seems like a project that is 10 years too late. Nobody downloads music files anymore. Everyone streams...

That's a sweeping generalization...
I like owning my music and not being in danger of losing it at the whim of a company or a country. The only danger to me right now is my library and its redundancies crashing.

If someone decides not to renew a contract, becomes too expensive for the service, moves to a country the service may not interact with, or decides to move to another service, I won't lose anything.

If I choose to switch services, I won't lose half my library.

I can get own music from obscure places or times services don't service or consider. I bet you most services don't have a lot of African music, no matter the decade. It doesn't even have to be obscure, there are great mixtapes from the 90s and 00s that just aren't on online services.
There are big changes under the hood. And those regularly make HN front page. Like the recent Cranelift codegen backend to help with the coding-compiling cycle time.

Similarly there's regularly ~350 PRs merged each week into rust. (The libification and chalkification is ongoing, which is the next-gen solver for the type/trait system, plus at the same time some refactor of the compiler to make it more like a usable library, so rust-analyzer can use it to provide more immediate/incremental feedback during development.)
I didn't notice if "participation" meant meals available or actually picked up by kids. Kids, particularly younger ones, who are in unstable households may not get to school in time to pick up what's available. Some districts have adapted by doing grab-and-go available anytime or serving meals in the classroom.
