Basic regex is readable, at a glance, for the most part, with a little practice. Anything marginally complex and you have to stop what you’re working on and really read the regex to try to understand what it’s doing.

SQL isn’t hard, but trying to remember all the use cases for the various ways to query something always trips me up. “Wait, do I do a LEFT JOIN here? Ok, now I gotta to look up the different kinds of joins so I can be sure I’m writing the most efficient query.”

Again, it’s just a matter of practice. I’d take SQL over a regex any day.

I thought the issue was not the CO2 they emit out the front but the methane(CH4) emitted from the other end.
Methane apparently does an even better job than CO2 of keeping the heat in.

Current research on Covid is pretty preliminary. Most of what's being said is sort of speculative to some degree. We mostly aren't getting solid conclusions out of it, which is part of why people are still scared of it and the pandemic rages on.

If we actually knew what the hell was going on and how to fix it, we would have put a stop to the pandemic already, just as we put out the oil well fires in just six months instead of taking the predicted years to solve it: Because oil well fires were pretty well understood, so it wasn't all that hard to invent new solutions when we had motive to.

The world rapidly forgot that it was honestly and sincerely in a not click-bait fashion predicted to be a global environmental disaster. We just took it for granted when it got fixed and found some new "news" to bellyache about.

A lot of people in this thread seem to share my desire to replace some of what bash does with scripts. Which is why I wrote a utility to allow writing scripts in-between pipes [1].

The basic idea is to call this tool anytime you would be setting up a complex chain of unix pipes, and instead do the scripting in a an interactive environment that allows you to see output as you type. It's just a toy implementation right now and only supports python, but could eventually support any scripting environment (even bash).

I don't really see this as a serious tool, but it can be useful for the odd shell job. Or just for those who like immediate evaluation on every key stroke ;)

So in looking at the first link. I had a hard time finding a single example of anyone pretending to be a journalist, except maybe the owner of the twitter account. What I did find were hundreds of videos of random people getting in fights, the owner of the account talking about the fights he had also engaged in, and a lot of claims about people being part of a secret underground antifi something or other. In reality not one of the videos seemed to be depicting anyone supporting or proclaiming that they themselves were antifi (though I’m sure there are a few somewhere in there) but most especially there was no video of evidence of any of the “secret” antifi activity that the owner of the account seems to be selling in his upcoming book.

As for the second post. It is indeed a person wearing a shirt that says press on it who is not a journalist. However, the given reason was “so he would not be shot by feds” which to me highlights the spirt of this conversation, that there is growing concern as well as some evidence that the country has sifted toward a more authoritarian bent.

Edit: I forgot to mention that there were no rocks or molotovs being thrown in any of the videos I saw, which there were reportedly hundreds of.

You might argue that subsidies create an industry of overproduction that’ll eventually crash the market, but that’s definitely not the initial state.

Just as if you’re a gas station and the government gives you a subsidy for every litre you sell, you’ll use some of that subsidy to pay more and sell for less in your local market and still have higher margins than your competitor.

We've put a lot of effort into optimizing the Kubernetes experience that non-containerized installations haven't been getting as much attention. We'd be thrilled to have system packages for Loki that also set it up as a service, it's just not something we've been able to spend time doing ourselves yet.
Ohh, I just remembered the long-delayed Zeiss ZX1 ($6000 fixed-lens 35mm f/2.0 camera) that has Adobe Lightroom built in. I like the concept, I bet the implementation is quite flawed though.

As callous as it sounds, I don’t think doing things for “any improvement” means it is worth doing. Everything has a cost/benefit ratio.

This is a good place to link to Orion [1], a pure-Rust crypto project for AEAD, stream ciphers, KDFs, MACs, and plain hashing. There hasn't yet been a formal security audit (hard to justify until there's a significant user base), but the API is tough to beat for usability and hard-to-misuse-ability (docs [2]).

It's an unproven library, but the author takes security pretty seriously. There's no unsafe, heavy testing, and fuzzing done for both safety (fuzzing with a sanitizer) and constant-time operation verification to minimize the danger of a timing attack.

Here's an example of the API.

let key = aead::SecretKey::default();
let ciphertext = aead::seal(&key, "msg".as_bytes())?;
let plaintext = aead::open(&key, &ciphertext)?;

It doesn't get much easier than that. Also, notice the lack of a user-facing nonce. Can't screw it up if it isn't there.

There are also lots of details that are right in the library. Traits like PartialEq are implemented using constant-time operations so that users don't have to know or remember to use special operations provided by the library for comparison. Methods that return types without these protections (like getting the raw bytes out of a PasswordHash) are helpfully named things like "unprotected_as_encoded".

Ditto for my partner. She is constantly doing exactly what you described, and has diagnosed ASD.

I wouldn't say her inner dialogue is centered reminiscing or longing, which is what the article mentions in this study about those who are lonely; more so she's constantly running a post mortem on every social interaction she remembers to build a more robust "model" about how people work.

Before she was diagnosed, this tended to veer more towards paranoia and constant second guessing of herself, and often resulted in a feeling of loneliness.

Post diagnosis she is much more comfortable with these thoughts, and has used mindfulness practice as a means to stop herself from obsessing when it goes a little too far.
No its because of Brownian Diffusion. Counter intuitively masks block particles smaller than 0.3 microns (such as virus’s) more easily than particles at around 0.3 microns in size.

It is particles that are around 0.3 microns in size that filters have the most difficulty blocking. N95 particles block 95% of particles of 0.3 microns in size. N99 Masks block 99% of particles at 0.3 microns.

As I understand it smaller particles get ‘stuck’ in the maze of fibres and are statistically unlikely to find there way through the mask. The best analogy I can think of is a spec of dust finding its way into a centre of a huge labarynth that is vibrating randomly in all directions (and coated in honey). Some respirator masks also contain anti viral coatings and are electrostaticaly charged.

These social media sites know their platforms are ~50% troll accounts assigned for manipulation to move policy and commercial goals (and many nations, advertising firms, and political activist groups, are engaged - not just France). But they do their best to conceal that fact so the regulation hammer doesnt come down. Facebook took down something like 2 billion fake accounts this year and twitter about half a billion (at least those are the numbers they announced). They dont get them all or anywhere close to it because its essentially impossible.
By cutting some N95/best available filter fabric and fitting internally over the exhalation valve. When flying I’ve worn a Korean nanofiber mask over the top for added social protection from ignorant flight attendants and airport staff who otherwise might ask me to remove it because they can’t see the internal exhalation valve filter. Korean commercially available masks are great by the way and there’s no shortage over there.

In situations where a respirator isn’t viable or necessary a some masking tape over the nose bridge wire area is quite good for reducing or eliminating glasses fogging and providing a better seal.

> with dynamically generated graphs, the computational graph is never actually defined anywhere: the computation is traced out on the fly and behind the scene. You can no longer do anything interesting with the computational graph: for example, if the computation is slow, you can’t reason about what parts of the graph are slow.

Hmm, my experience is the opposite. When I used Tensorflow, there was no way I could figure out why something is slow, or require huge memory. All I have is a gigantic black box.

Meanwhile, in PyTorch, all I have to do is run it with CUDA_LAUNCH_BLOCKING=1, and it will give me an accurate picture of exactly how much milliseconds each line is taking! (Just print the current time before/after the line.) With nvprof it will even tell you which CUDA kernels are executing.

One thing I'm confused by with this: an APNS token is, technically, a device identifier... so should every app that uses push notifications be electing under Device ID?

If so, I would _really_ appreciate it if there was some language stating "for push notifications only" or something, because as it sounds right now it comes across like something else.
I'm not arguing that it's good that police are more likely to handle situations with reporters well. I am saying that the fact that they won't even be on their best behavior in their interactions with the press anymore is indicative of the fact that they no longer think it's necessary to do so.

That strikes me as noteworthy.
Well, that’s why couching your point in a gimmick like sarcasm rarely contributes to your comment. In fact, de-gimmick your comment and I wonder if you would have considered there enough substance to post it at all.

I’m having trouble interpreting it myself (see the problem?) but I believe it would go something like “I’ve observed some irony: Google used to have the motto «don’t be evil» and what you describe sounds evil.” Feel free to correct it.
> correctly state that they were arrested for violating an order to disperse.

My understanding of the situation is that they were arrested because the police wanted them arrested, plain and simple. Not because they ignored any order, but because the police had the power and the will, though not the legal right, to punish them.

I am going to stop responding to your comments as you do not argue in good faith.

I don't see how Brexit was supposed to fix an alleged EU democratic deficit when the UK suffers from the same problems - even more so, because most EU countries don't have FPTP.

In fact the EC is just the EU's version of the UK cabinet, but on a bigger scale. Everyone present is elected by their national voters, but there are - as yet - no direct EU-wide elections for specific EU posts.

Opponents of the EU criticise this while simultaneously being furious at any hint of closer political union which might make direct EU-wide elections possible.

I’m not sure if it’s hatred towards sex workers they aren’t likely going to have the Reavers either at least not in the same manner as the show yet alone the film.

Firefly was really dark with a lot of gore compared to most network shows of the time.

Serenity was probably closer to the level of “dark” JW wanted to have in the show mixed with a FU of some sorts to fans by killing so many of the main cast and basically killing any sequel possibility on either screen.

The issue Disney has is that Disney+ has no room for anything that isn’t kids friendly because it’s a babysitting as a service first.

The Mandalorian goes out it’s way to avoid graphic violence if it wasn’t such a money maker to Disney I don’t think they would’ve it slip into the TV-14 realm for the recent episodes before that it was pretty much TV-PG.

Under these circumstances it’s going to be very hard to have Inara on the show.

In fact I’m not sure how Fox even got away with a TV-14 rating for FF initially, Germany, Australia, NZ and quite a few other countries have rated it 16/18+.

My guess is that Fox got the show rated on the based on the pilot and with how the season progressed they would’ve definitely have had to re-rate the show if it wasn’t canceled.

Disney has a real problem on their hands right now they are in possession of so many IPs that they no longer can be kids only or even kids first across the board and they’ll likely have to segregate their streaming services to support that.

I would not be surprised if Disney would launch a spin-off brand for their more mature properties sort of like Fox and FX.
You’re both right I think: short term needed users so adopt chrome... long term Firefox essential so MS would step in as a supporter (and potentially adopt it too should google become a problem).
