I don’t know about the legalities, but according to Apple you are only allowed to run macOS on real Mac hardware. Anything else is probably an EULA violation or something.

As an aside, in the script you link to is this line

> VBoxManage setextradata "${vm_name}" "VBoxInternal/Devices/smc/0/Config/DeviceKey" "ourhardworkbythesewordsguardedpleasedontsteal(c)AppleComputerInc"

I think that’s Apple’s way of reminding you about their rules regarding host machines.
But the content is not unique.

And its much more apparent when 4 billion chimps have been brought into one zoo, are watching each other 24*7, copying each other at the speed of light based on some weird ass reward system that props up the most over energetic over confident characters in the world.

The Newton's and Van Gogh's of such a world are never going to surface.
Many people can't get enough sunlight even if they wanted to, living at northern latitudes and/or cloudy areas.

Eldery can't produce it from sunlight either. This information doesn't help them.
To be clear only Oregon has legalized "magic mushrooms" in the U.S.

A bit misleading to say most states or a few states have legalized it.

Sure other states are researching it, but that's a long way from state sanctioned legalization.

I wish everyone in the states had access to it, sadly that's just not the current reality here today. States could benefit economically like most have from legalization of marijuana, billions of dollars to be made.
I’m pretty sure if Amazon wanted to negotiate custom terms, they’d have the clout to do so. This is an alliance between two giants.
For what its worth, I ride my bike to work 8 miles each way every day in SF (sunset to exploratorium) and haven't seen a needle since I stopped riding on Division St (literally under the overpass) a couple years ago. Anecdotes go both ways I guess
Wait what? You can create something that runs at 100 million degrees in your garage?

Can you explain a bit more for the unlearned?
Do you think the politics of fusion would be any better? The politics opposing fission aren't grounded in science; do you think the politics around fusion would be?
Recent versions of Windows have made it a lot harder to install through USB. A month ago I tried to install Windows 10 onto an old laptop SSD mounted in an enclosure and connected through USB so I could play a games with my brother online that was only available through the Windows store, but the installer literally refused to install to it because I was using the Home edition of Windows instead of Enterprise. I eventually found a solution through some freemium backup software that allowed copying an installation on a regular hard drive onto a USB, but weirdly the first software I tried that claimed to have this feature did not yield in the SSD being bootable, so I had to find something else that was able to do it properly. Given that Microsoft went out of their way to disable doing this directly in their installer, I wouldn't be too surprised if it the workarounds continue to become more difficult or even impossible without paying for the Enterprise version (which is not something students should ever have to pay for).
Umm, that's untrue.

It's a very cleanly layered system, it just doesn't bother end user with details (as implementor, you can play with them, thus LustreZFS): there's separate SPA (block), DMU (OSD) and ZPL (FS) & ZVOL (emulated block device) layers.

Compression and encryption are integrated at DMU level because that's a logical place for them.

NFS actually calls OS nfs server.
I experienced the same thing while TAing physics for biosciences for a few semesters (which was 90% pre-meds), though I never had to call security.

One apparently needs close to a 4.0 GPA, plus many extracurricular volunteer hours to qualify for medical school, plus glowing letters of recommendation. I also overheard a number of stories about pre-med students intentionally sabotaging other students by misleading them to think that private group tutoring sessions (to study for the MCAT) had been canceled.

That experience helped form my beliefs about the driver high cost of medical care in the US.

Specifically, that there is no shortage of people who are willing and qualified to be medical doctors, but that doctors and medical schools collude to artificially limit the supply of credentialed medical doctors as a means to increase doctor salaries.

As you alluded to, I think it also creates an adverse selection problem, where the people who become doctors are mostly not those with excellent diagnosis skills or bedside manor or ethics, but those who are the most cutthroat and desperate to get into a high-paying career.
I ran into this online couple days ago and was really surprised that (according to this sites collection at least) there seems to be stronger evidence for masks not being effective for stopping spread of COVID: https://swprs.org/face-masks-evidence/

EDIT:
I see downvotes and that's okay I guess, but I'm not any kind of medical or scientific expert so I'd rather hear why you think this list is wrong. For me it looks like a comprehensive list of research about the topic.
There's a greater risk in Asians? Japan has had 20k deaths or 1 in 60k, vs USA which is currently at 1 in 1200

People always make up random excuses like

"Japan locked down more" No they didn't. In fact they've been practically unlocked since June.

"Japan doesn't test as much" That wouldn't hide a raise in the death rate overall.

"Japanese people wear masks" Restaurants, coffeeshops, and bars are full (yes, they are) and those people are not wearing masks. They do wear them elsewhere (trains, busses, stores, outside...)

In any case, that Asians are of "Greater Risk of severe COVID-19" doesn't seem to fit the facts at least in Japan.
As a rule, coercion by offering money will never qualify as entrapment. The courts consider refusing money to be “too easy”, so to speak. An example of entrapment would instead be a threat of prosecution against your child unless you do some illegal act, or something else with a similarly more nefarious coercive force.
Many comments have claimed this, but I disagree. Plasma confinement as science has largely been solved now. Like the Rocket Equation, Computational Fluid Dynamics, and other aspects of Aerospace, we know the parameters of how to do it, and it is simply a matter of searching the space, reducing the parameters, via engineering iteration.

We also knew that landing rockets was possible, and closed-cycle combustion engines were possible, the physics said so, and even had prototypes that could do it, but with SpaceX, it is not the science that's the issue, or even one-off engineering feats, but practical, economical, scalable production.

With Fusion, we've already achieved confinement times and burns that show we can make it work. But making it work in a prototype reactor is a far cry from making it work in a commercial reactor which needs to be run everyday and maintained. ITER's been going for 13 years now, and I don't think they're solving any of the problems that SPARC will solve.

Yes, tokamak prototypes have provided the insight to help nail down the plasma physics, but small scale fusion prototypes have helped to do, with much faster turnaround time than $20+ billion mega projects.

What SPARC is saying is that small is beautiful. That because of scaling of the B-field to the fourth power, if you focus on stronger magnets, you can dramatically reduce both the size and the cost to build your fusion reactors.

That is, if you double the strength of your B-field, you shrink the size of the machine needed by a factor of 4. So clearly, instead of focusing on ITER, you should focus on the economics and scaling of REBCO manufacturing, and increases in magnetic field you can eeek out because they pay huge dividends.

In other words, we are not longer at the Von Braun stage of rockets, or even the Apollo stage, we're at the SpaceX stage of dramatically reducing manufacturing costs and increasing use.

Likewise, I think Fusion is poised to move past the Von Braun stage of "is this possible" to "can we build a real reactor?" As long as people can let go of huge super-projects, and we can get funding for a bunch of innovative startups in the space to try various techniques and designs for engineering small, cheap, and rapidly.

Likewise, for Thorium reactors, we already know Molten Salt Reactors work, we already know the Thorium cycle works, and we even know a commercial plant works, as Germany ran one at one point. There are oodles of startups now vying to build small scale thorium reactors. The role the government could play here is, like with NASA, the DOE, could provide capital to reduce risk, and get some of the more promising ventures off the ground.

Most importantly, they need to be allowed to fail.
This entire thing is a hot mess.

Dominionvoting is also dominionvotingsystems.com

The anonymous author uses a screenshot from the Way Back Machine from 2011 to connect the 2 domains. There's one massive problem with this assertion. The current dominionvotingsystems.com domain was registered on 5/28/2020:

The anonymous author makes no effort to explain this obvious and glaring discrepancy. The entire basis for what ever it is he's alleging hinges on this connection. The rest of the information presented it spurious, irrelevant and relies on broad, completely unsubstantiated assumptions. For example:

A search of the indivisible.org network showed a subdomain which evidences the existence of scorecard software in use as part of the Indivisible (formerly ACORN) political group for Obama

Wow, got all that from a subdomain? That's his 'evidence'? To top it off he never even tries to explain what this Scorecard software has to do with anything.

This Dominion partner domain “dvscorp”

This entire connection is based on the fact they're hosted by the same ISP but again never explains what it had to do with anything other than there's a Chinese domain with the same name? Again like every other reference never explains how it connects to anything else.

The author is going in 20 directions at once but never gets anywhere. Hell who is this person? Since when can you present an anonymous affidavit and declare yourself an 'expert' without presenting any credentials? This is pure insanity. If you believe this I have a bridge in New York for sale. Contact me for details.
It's going to be out of their hands on this one. Apple have pretty strong EULAs.

Microsoft's licensing for clouds is also a pain in the arse. You (the cloud platform) have to pay for a full months license the moment an instance is created. The way it's structured you have some wriggle room, e.g. you have your placement algorithm land new instances on where Windows instances have already been in a given month, so you don't incur additional licenses (because the license "transfers"). It gets worse if you start wanting to do things like run SQL Servers, where it's the entire month license outright with no prorating, and it applies to a specific instance instead of the machine/VM slot.

Strangely enough, despite all the trends in the market, operating system vendors are determined to make it harder for people to pay them to use their stuff, rather than easier.
What classical Hinduism had was the varna system, where you were a member of a particular varna according your jobs and qualifications (for eg, bhramans were supposed to be learners and teachers of scriptures, analogous to professors and phd's today). And even this varna system was debated and discusses throughout classical Hinduism, as with every other idea in Hinduism was.

But overtime, especially when people of different cultures and languages interact, things can become twisted and lost in incorrect translations, whether through genuine error,any inherent biases of the translator or malicious intent.

And also overtime, cultures can evolve in response or in interactions with outside forces (especially the Islamic and later European invaders over a 1000 year period) that would seek to implement their own hierarchies and systems. Infact, the indigenous Indians were treated as second class citizens in empires established by outside invaders (Jaziya collection is common example of this).

But what generally makes the system as being attributed to the British is due to the Divide and Conquer strategy implemented by the British. Dividing the populace becomes a lot easier if you can mutate or deepen existing lines in the system.

But truthfully, the exact lineage is very hard to find, especially for a culture that is not only 5000+ years old but has also been interacting with and assimilating just about every other global culture during that 5000 years period (Indians have been interacting with everyone from Chinese, SE Asians, Romans, Greeks, Persians, Mesopotomians, Africans, Arabs, Ancient Egyptians, Turkic Nomads, etc)
I have to agree with the author. It is extraordinarily difficult to see the difference between bad exception-based code and not-bad exception-based code. In particular, the example of bad vs not-bad doesn't show substantive differences between the two versions.

// bad
NotifyIcon CreateNotifyIcon()
{
NotifyIcon icon = new NotifyIcon();
icon.Text = "Blah blah blah";
icon.Visible = true;
icon.Icon = new Icon(GetType(), "cool.ico");
return icon;
}

// not-bad
NotifyIcon CreateNotifyIcon()
{
NotifyIcon icon = new NotifyIcon();
icon.Text = "Blah blah blah";
icon.Icon = new Icon(GetType(), "cool.ico");
icon.Visible = true;
return icon;
}

What is the problem with the first version and how is the second version fixing it?
Highly recommend not hiding legal issues from your company's lawyers. That's a good way to get fired.

And sued.
Non-deniable messages plainly leak information. Alice knows Bob's message is valid the moment she receives it (if she's running a serious protocol with Bob --- no comment if she's using the PGP MDC), and from that point on no longer needs the authentication on Bob's message. Neither Bob nor anyone else need to validate Bob's message; Bob sent the message and knows its plaintext bit-for-bit; "anyone else" isn't a party to the conversation. We design cryptosytems to minimize what "anyone else" gets. Non-deniable messages fail that test.

What you're giving is a rationalization people use, to defend PGP and, recently, to argue that mail spool compromises are in the public interest, and should produce publicly verifiable logs. In reality, when Alice and Bob agree to produce verifiable, non-deniable messages to each other, they do so explicitly, not inadvertently, which is what is happening when your messaging system does that signing for you.

Actually, it is.

If you actually bothered to read the filing, the person swearing out the affadavit is definitely Dennis Montgomery, peddling false links to foreign entities as well as unsubstantiated and previously debunked misinformation.

Which he's been doing for decades, only now he has a new crop of suckers.

This is bad advice at high latitudes or in winter time. In those situations the highest sun should be sought.

I fucking hate AMP pages AS A USER (not sure why we're yelling)

A lot of them a broken mappings of the actual page, so the layout is broken, or an important image will be missing...

Then there's the whole annoying behavior when you want to visit the actual page, remember when they disabled the quick copy when you hit info so you had to manually copy the URL and paste it into your browser?

And I'd tend to do that a lot, especially on my phone where selecting text is a pain in the ass because AMP pages fail to load in the most aggravating way on my phone!

Instead of actually failing to load, it's like AMP just pretends that the page is still loading? So I'll be on a weak mobile connection for example, and the page will just get stuck in some broken state. It's given up and instead of the browser saying "Page Load failed" it shows me that stupid AMP header and a broken page until I question if it's still loading on my slow connection or stuck.

Then there's the fact that some (really many) pages use AMP to show you the least useful version of the content, so literally the first thing you have to do is go to the actual page! Like Reddit, it won't even show comments 2 comments deep, and it's like half the post types are broken, so you need to go back and load the actual page 5 seconds later anyways!

So instead of just getting to go to Reddit, I get to go to that stupid AMP page, then start the wait for the "slow terrible main site".

Which leads to my next point... AMP's edge caching nonsense is not why the pages are "fast", it's because the AMP page is barren. The websites that do AMP the best tend to already have great websites! I have literally never clicked to go to the "real" site from an actual useful AMP page and had it load appreciably slower than the AMP page did.

Probably because the websites that have bloated crappy sites riddled by ads usually have half-assed AMP versions that are meant to funnel you into the real site anyways while taking advantage of the SEO bonus of an AMP page! So it's literally the worst of both worlds where you're waiting for AMP, then realizing the content is fucked, then waiting for their crap website!

AMP fucking SUCKS as a user, I fucking hate it.

When you say AMP sucks people act like you're opposed for monopolistic reasons or something, I don't give a damn about that! Google owns search; the ship has sailed. But that stupid AMP bullshit? It's not monopolistic, it's just garbage.
I have no clue, but would love to know.

This is true, but a full panel of tests will easily run you in the multiple hundreds of dollars.

Honestly, he was just a return to how the FCC was before Genachowski and Tom Wheeler were chairman. The democratic commissioners Rosenworcel and Starks while more interested in consumer protections than their republican peers, if either them are selected to be the new commissioner I would be surprised to the same push or zeal as wheeler had. Although someone else could be named for the position.

Although, honestly wheeler was a bit of surprise a lot people thought he would be worse than Genachowski because he had ties to the NCTA (Cable company lobbying group). Although that was something like back in the 80's from my understanding.
Piggybacking this question for people interested in the topic:

Which everyday high level data structures you use are built on lock-free implementations?

Clojure's maps/vectors (which are persistent data structures) come to mind for me, for one.
Drawing tablets also have pen pressure and tilt detection to simulate a real paintbrush. They also need thicker screens to handle constant pen strokes whereas a regular tablet is mostly used by fingers.

Wacom and Huion are pretty much the only 2 manufacturers in this niche market. Huion's equivalents for Wacom tablets are usually much cheaper but their drivers are noticeably worse in my experience.
I doubt Apple supports this in any way. It means that if you want to develop Mac/iPhone apps, you no longer have to buy Mac hardware. I'm surprised they aren't making this harder.
I know it's petty but literally the fact that it was named Nikola was reason enough for anyone to think they're shady or uninspired or a straight up scam. I would be equally skeptical about wannabe Apple competitors named Banana or Dragonfruit, or a Microsoft competitor named Megahard, or a Burger King competitor named Hamburger Aristocrat. If the best someone can come up with for their own name is a joke pointed at their primary competitor, it does not inspire confidence.

Wrong. The egg has been fertilized and there is unique human DNA. This is a new, unique human we're dealing with.
Greenpeace is also rabidly anti-nuclear. The quantity of tritium that can possibly be released from a fusion breach is incredibly low, and would dilute so rapidly as to be unnoticable. The scale of local radioactive material simply doesn't compare to a fission reactor (tonnes) or a nuclear bomb (kilograms).
At least the placed ad (in your screenshot) is a good source for anyone looking to pick up some ringworm.

Your last sentence nailed it: this is a society problem, not a university problem. It's insane how much emphasis is put on these measures by parents from a very young age.

School boards here, and I'm sure many other places, decided to nix grades from March onwards after the pandemic hit. The announcement wasn't made until closer to the end of the term. I remember some parents being furious claiming that their kids "wasted their time" on remote school if a grade wasn't being assigned.

I've had this discussion many times, and as a university drop out, my opinion has always been similar to yours. One thing I've learned is that debating the merits of the higher education system is right up there with religion and politics in terms of topics to avoid at a dinner party.

People take great pride in their educations (read: pieces of paper). They can take great offense to the institutions and systems that produced those pieces of paper being challenged. These values have been passed on and hardened through generations. This is the first thing that needs to change before there's meaningful reform, and it's going to take time.
There are many similarities. The growth hackers usually do a better quality job though.
