The content marketers have had a work around for that for years.

Just answer the asked question relatively narrowly, then link to a detailed write up on their affiliate site. Note that the article may have already been there (not that uncommon), but sometimes the article was custom-written for that specific reddit post.

It is really tough for reddit to capture money from these posts or prevent links to the affiliate site because the content marketer is providing (perhaps minimal) value to the community, and a link to their more detailed response is usually not a link that will get reported or deleted because it prevents "walls of text"/detailed answers that some redditors seem to despise.
But they still committed engineering and corporate resources, even if just to do planning and run estimates. I get that it is not a lot in the grand scheme of things for them, but it went quite far if the scam was so obvious.

Or can I get a meeting with GM with an animator and mockups?
>It’s really unfortunate that Amazon is not protecting our small American start-up business

sympathize with the case but is it really necessary to use this China/protectionist rhetoric in particular? A knockoff is a knockoff, that should be enough. The case doesn't get worse because it's Chinese or other Americans copying their stuff.

It can’t be a British invention. My understanding of Bangladeshi history is that we converted to Islam to escape the caste system. That predated British rule by hundreds of years.
By 1780 it was a matter of when and not if. The American people had been so thoroughly brutalized by the British at that point that there was certainly going to be ongoing violence as long as there were British soldiers around to shoot at. So then the British options are genocide or wash their hands of it. And the Bible says you're not supposed to commit genocide against other Christians let alone people who might be British subjects (also you need them alive to work to pay taxes and the population needs to exist as a hedge against French influence) so since that option isn't really on the table the question at that point is at what point do the British wash their hands of it.
It is a good theory.

Even things like arrowheads which are used to mark progress or reach of Native American populations in the US are useful because they survive and are dug up all the time while digging. I'm sure there would be more interesting cultural finds if baskets or clothes from the time survived at the same rate.

I ordered a small food scale to replace one I thought I had lost in a move.

Of course the day the replacement arrived, my wife pulled the old one out of the closet she had stashed it in.

I went to return the one I just bought and Amazon simply said to keep it and they would refund me because it wasn't worth shipping back to them.

Obviously won't work for everything and I imagine if I do that very often they won't let me anymore, but it's the best return experience I've ever had.
I'm not sure what you mean by x-0, but if there is no risk for young healthy people, then they don't need the vaccine? I understand there are other arguments to be had but this 100% invalidates at least on of them

> They also managed in a cheap platform (mac mini = $700) get 4266 Mhz memory working with about half the latency of any x86-64 I've seen. The mac mini can manage a random cacheline (assuming a relatively TLB friendly pattern) of around 30-33ns.

Where are you getting those numbers? From https://www.anandtech.com/show/16252/mac-mini-apple-m1-teste...

"In terms of memory latency, we’re seeing a (rather expected) reduction compared to the A14, measuring 96ns at 128MB full random test depth, compared to 102ns on the A14."

Which would put M1's DRAM latency at worse than a modern Intel or AMD desktop, which is measuring around 70-80ns: https://www.anandtech.com/show/16214/amd-zen-3-ryzen-deep-di...

Fwiw I went to a no-name state school and found university to be invaluable. Classes, schoolwork, and exams gave me something to focus on and build the skills that I use routinely today. I believe my school was fairly balanced wrt the reasonableness of work expected and exams, but was overall a fairly typical education. I guess some people will benefit more than others from the enforced structure.
I must admit I was completely ignorant of the effects of Vitamin D deficiency on common illnesses such as the flu as well as how unbelievably common that deficiency is for people living in much of the northern hemisphere. Will it cure COVID19? No. But do I think there's a decent chance it will improve my outcome while simultaneously improving my ability to fight off other viruses.

I am honestly completely shocked that we haven't seen governments and the media increasing people's awareness of this issue.
But that wasn't public information
The main reason vaccine trials normally take years is money. Normally you wouldn't start manufacturing a vaccine before you know it at least works in animals. You also wouldn't _simultaneously_ vaccinate the 30000 people needed for phase 3 data. The Moderna study has over 100 study locations [1]. A normal vaccine trial might have 10-20. With that number, it takes much longer to get the same number of people in the study. Given the virtually unlimited financial resources coming from the government, they were able to conduct the study, as well as begin manufacturing, in record time.

All the vaccine trials are following participants for over 2 years, at which point many of the 1-in-10000 effects should be known. If you look at previous problematic vaccines [2], most rare side effects (> 1-in-100000) were only seen after MILLIONS of innoculations, meaning you only see them in Phase 4 (post-approval) studies as they are extremely rare. Given the high case fatality rate of COVID-19 [3], the risk of an unseen extremely rare reaction is much lower than the risk of dying from COVID-19, so general speaking, you should get vaccinated.

I never use the Amazon app on my iPhone. I much prefer using the information dense webpage, even though I have to hold it in landscape and zoom around.

I would be offended if Amazon decided to nanny me and change the experience, simply because it detected I was using a mobile screen.

I personally rather avoid any per language package managers and opt for distro level package management (rpm/deb). Thats something that has bern there pretty much for ever & has all the hard & dirty depsolving issues long solved.

Also I can use it for all software regardless of what laguage it's written in, not to mention having to learn multiple half-baked package managers per laguage!

And lastly any non trivial software project will need dependencies outside of the world of its own package manager anyway, so why not go all in properly with rmp/deb & make everything easier for your users & your future self.

It is because of TSLA, there is a significant number of people who do not understand that the EV industry isn't the same thing as the furniture industry.

You're missing my point. These deaths will be insanely reduced once we get the vaccine out to the people that need it. I wasn't saying they are the same; i was saying they are similar in the way they are infectuous and we don't seem to be doing much for young people for most other diseases.
I was kinda surprised that the phrase "long tail" didn't come up in the OP. I think that the author's point can be well summed up as "the open web protects the long tail / diversity".

After all, why diversity is good for the society overall is a tricky question to answer.
I don't know if you're just mentioning an example that's in the article or making an implicit comment on it, but, like with any other programming paradigm, it's going to be hard to read until you get used to it, and becomes easier once you wrap your mind around it. The question isn't whether it looks funny at first, but whether the effort to make it look familiar is worth it.
How weird that they put an accent on it. It doesn't have an accent in either French or English.
I don't agree the problems are comparable at all. The original Merlin engines were modern iterations of proven technology and vertical landing rockets were already proven technology dating back many decades to the DC-X [1] and Apollo lunar lander. What SpaceX did was cut all the bullshit out of the space launch industry that had grown incredibly lazy due to lack of competitors and revolving doors with the government, and then modernize everything with iterative development. In comparison, commercially viable fusion has never been shown to work in the real world at all. The Raptor engine, however, really is a massive achievement and is somewhat comparable to developing fusion power. But if SpaceX had started with it, they probably would have failed due to how much time, money, and expertise it took to get working.

The fact that Bitcoin is a non-sovereign, hard-capped supply, global, immutable, decentralized digital store of value and that it’s an insurance policy against monetary and fiscal policy irresponsibility from central banks and governments globally is valuable.

It can't be inflated and it can't be counterfeited. It's not subject to political pressure or the whims of a government.

To the extent that anything has intrinsic value, since value is subjective at the end of the day, Bitcoin certainly does, especially now as we have Great Depression levels of unemployment during a global pandemic. The more the global reserve currency is inflated—that would be the trillions and trillions of dollars that have been printed in the past year—the more valuable Bitcoin becomes.
The average of the 3 points would give you the triangle's centroid, not necessarily its circumcenter. You can still calculate the circumradius from a, b, and c: https://mathworld.wolfram.com/Circumradius.html.

In a college scenario, perhaps you can say that dealing with problems is the students responsibility, but for k-12 schools it is the responsibility of the school to provide education even to children with no internet or headphones.
They're barely even comparable. Signal Protocol has:

* A "double ratcheting" forward secrecy system, where message round-trips establish new DH keys, and message transmissions establish new symmetric keys.

* An authenticated key exchange --- "Triple Diffie Hellman" --- that provides deniability without having to publish spent keys, and works without needing a signature algorithm.

* A cryptosystem locked exclusively into modern misuse-resistant curves and AEAD cryptography.

By contrast, OpenPGP:

* Provides no forward secrecy (applications built on OpenPGP have to invent their own forward secrecy designs, which in practice nobody does).

* Relies on long-term keys.

* Uses a hodgepodge of algorithms, including outmoded cryptography from the 1990s; moreover, the compatible subset of PGP implementations depends on its nightmarish "MDC" hack, which was an attempt to retrofit message authentication into the standard.

Some of PGP's problems are due to the fact that Signal was designed at a time when we had far better understanding of cryptography, and, frankly, designed by better subject matter experts. But more of the problems are simply due to the fact that PGP isn't purpose-built for messaging; it's a general-purpose encryption tool, the "Awk" of cryptography, and one thing we're rapidly forming a consensus on is that you don't want Awk-like tools in cryptography engineering.

Hi! Some of my peers have enabled Signal PINs when the feature was introduced, and they have used weak PIN codes that they could remember on the spot, because intially the app would not let them view their messages until the Signal PIN was configured, which was later fixed in an app update.

What is the real-world impact of a weak Signal PIN code? Can a compromised Intel SGX process or the Signal server intercept our messages, if the PIN code is known?

I’m not a protein crystallographer, but here’s my generalist take.

We understand the physics of e.g. X-ray diffraction pretty well, so we can fit pretty decent forward models for the x-ray data given a proposed structure. The hardest task here is getting a good enough guess at the structure to optimize the physical model, and it’s my impression that people use an iterative model refinement workflow. At least that’s how it’s done in condensed matter materials.

There are many sources of experimental uncertainty, like the non-ideal nature of the x-ray source and optics, and the fact that the atoms in the protein are not static but have some thermal fluctuations. so at the end of the refinement you still have some uncertainty on your model parameters (the interatomic distances for proteins I guess), but if you are careful you can calibrate these uncertainties pretty well.

This paper looks like a really good detailed discussion: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4080831/
You missed the point. Of course Santa Monica is expensive, but the point is that it shouldn't be. In fact, until a few decades ago, it wasn't -- it's not like people just recently started liking the beach. Your argument also doesn't work because most LA tech jobs are in Santa Monica. The idea that it should be status quo to commute to your job because you can't afford to live around where you work is nonsensical. Not to mention that Santa Monica real estate (like a lot of CA real estate, including OC) is propped up by foreign investment and screws the actual locals that live in those communities -- unless, like my parents, you just happened to get lucky and get a house at the bottom of the bubble (a house which now almost doubled in price).

Professional, educated, well-off young people can't afford to buy houses in California (I've had this conversation with dozens of friends). Market forces or not, even as a part-time libertarian, it's clear to me that this isn't tenable and people are frustrated.

Why use different arch to iPhone/iPad? M1 borrows most design from A chip and they spent time to optimize software for Arm.
This is one of the reasons that FDE on an SSD is so important, even if you still have it send discard through to the device to mark blocks as unused it'll still make things much more difficult to reconstruct and decrypt deleted data later. Probably not perfect but it's one more layer of defense that will be more difficult to break.
According to dead pedestrians, mostly.
Signal messages are repudiable which is not "better" but different, and probably more appropriate to a chat-like use cases.

Signal rotates keys automatically; a good OpenPGP client would do the same (using the subkey support that the protocol has), but the UX for that is completely missing in most clients.

Signal has a much smaller protocol surface (fixed algorithms etc.) and has properly robust HMAC-style message authentication, whereas OpenPGP relies on a bolted-on MDC construction.

Downsides are that there's no web-of-trust support from the protocol (OpenPGP still requires you to agree what signing someone's key with a given trust level represents, but it gives you more tools to build your processes on), and that the (nominally untrusted) server's involvement is pretty complex (particularly in the first-message case) but tends to get left out of protocol analysis.

Yes, we call that a thermonuclear bomb. The only problem is that in order to detonate a thermonuclear bomb you need a nuclear bomb to ignite the Fusion reaction first. Civilian/Generative Fusion can never be weaponized the same way nuclear fission has been. Fusion only occurs under the most extreme temperature and magnetic conditions, if they vary even slightly the fusion process stops instantly and you get no energy. We can barely get a energy positive fusion process working in a reactor with all the best tech in the world. Barely. It cannot and will not ever be weaponized the way you think.
IMHO what killed itanium wasn't too many registers, and not even compiler difficulties — it was an attempt to have a working x86 emulation.

So, instead of a weird but very fast CPU, it ended up being not very fast both in x86 and native modes, while still being weird. (The makers of the Cell CPU did not compromise, went full weird, and had a winner of sorts.)

Before the vitamin D link was so widely reported, I remember seeing a bunch of comments online (including HN) from people saying things along the lines of "We've been self-isolating at home since January, only bought things online, and STILL got sick!"

I'm not a professional and this is just me spouting ideas, but I wonder if this is one reason why America is so hard hit compared to Asia. Americans generally commute by car, stay in a massive building complex all day for work, and go home and stay inside. In Asia, a huge proportion of people commute by foot, train (which involves walking to the station), or scooter. Then they walk to a grocery store or restaurant to get some food. I wonder if those minutes of continuous sun exposure add up and lighten the severity of it.
My understanding is that the physics are actually pretty well understood but it's just a matter of executing on them. Fusion is possible but we just need someone to actually... do it. Which AFAIK is the point of ITER.
>After all, why diversity is good for the society overall is a tricky question to answer.

Indeed. There are plenty of cultures seem to value "homogeneity" over diversity (at least by Western's world standard).

It's structural.

class X:
constructor(y=3,z=2)
y;
z;
b = [......]
F(x) = y + x

F cannot be reused outside of the context of X and z y and b. This is not a philosophical issue but concrete.

G(x, y) = y + x

Here G has the same exact logic as F but can be reused and is more modular. No philosophy of fuzzy stuff here I am talking about a concrete problem.

Philosophical arguments lead to unresolved controversies. I am not going in that direction. I am talking about a concrete issue that can be resolved.

> that only the US are interfering/meddling in the world

They didn't claim that. You inferred it.

>Youtube's goals is not the same as the authors, why would they promote something that is not what they want to be?

Because YT doesn't come out and say "We don't want controversial content on our platform. We don't want to question the ruling order of the country from which we operate". If they did, it would be a bit more honest. I don't see why you seem to be defending their quasi-suppressive behavior.
> If everyone drives as fast as they can while meeting some perceived safety level, then does that mean these efforts are unlikely to affect safety and merely to slow everyone down?

No. It means that people are usually wrong when they judge the safety level of their driving speed on a nice clear road that happens to have pedestrians next to it or trying to cross it, but are more accurate at judging safety when they are primed to expect obstacles, steering challenges, other actors moving not in parallel with them on the road itself.
