> It has been some years since I read about the original document leak, but as I recall, she shared documents from her workplace that either had printer steganography ID codes embedded into them (images in a raster scan of a paper document), or some form of digital stego IDs in electronic documents.

Correct.

> Finally, this was clearly careless on the part of the Intercept, no proof has ever been given that this was malicious, and I'm not seeing any here.

Maybe not malicious, but definitely haphazard; they're dealing with incredibly sensitive information, from people in intelligence agenecies who do not hesitate to neutralize a potential threat. In all honesty, Reality got off easy, after the Snowden and Manning/Assange sagas it beceome clear the US has will not hesitation to chase people to the ends of the World, and in apply what the UN has stated to be torture in Assange's case, and outright inhumane pressure in Manning's case that has forced her to attempt suicide. I wouldn't be surprised if many of these leaks don't eventually end up with trips to a rendition camp under the guise of 'national security' the way some of the most jingoistic in Washington speak and vote and this goes for both R/D parties.

I honestly want to see Laura on a massive platform like Joe Roan so she can go in depth on OPSEC and INFOSEC for the common non tech user told from her very relevant position and elaborate on the many misgivings from the Intercept--it's very telling that Glenn, Laura and Edward have all departed from it and there seems to be a common theme here.

I'd also like to hear what Laura has to say about Jacob Applebaum's departure from the TOR Community for so long now, she touched on her relationship with him in her last documentary about Assange. I really miss Jacob's State of the Onion speeches at the CCC and him being a general thorn in in the side of most Nation states security apparatuses. Something never really felt right about his rape accusations, as they tried to get Julian on similar charges in Sweden with nearly no evidence and just a massive media campaign, but succeed in making Jacob a pariah as he is no where to be seen--even when his close friend and possible mentor Assange was wasting away in jail.

Levels should probably have a way of filtering submissions from employees with 0 YOE and 1+, 3+ YOE, as you mention, RSU value can double. So another identically leveled SWE could be making double you, just based off the stock appreciation. Naturally, one would expect the company to offer a package with half as many RSUs after share price doubles.

Since you always enter a company with 0 YOE at that company (or at least, a clean slate of RSU tranches), the data points of employees who 'got in' early aren't relevant to an offer you might receive.

I don’t think this is actually a corruption issue. I spent a lot of time with this yesterday analysing it in a VM and I couldn’t find any cases where on reboot it caused chkdsk to actually take any actions. It always found the file system clean.

What it seems to do is trigger a consistency check for the next reboot and some alarmist notifications. This is probably a simple check assertion somewhere which is seeing unexpected data passing through a call.

That is a problem but significantly less of one than actual corruption.

If anyone has evidence to the contrary and steps to reproduce it I’d be interested to try them.
This doesn't really mesh with how we perceive time. It appears to be a product of accumulated experiences in short-term memory. People with attention deficit disorders experience time differently and are unable to gauge even short periods accurately, but even for neurotypical people, time seems to "pass quickly" if nothing takes place, or if you're distracted. It's a function of attention, instead of our other senses (smell, hunger, hearing), which happen whether we pay attention to them or not.
> However I do think in most cases that if your actions have bad (bad as in Stoic Objective Bad) outcomes then you didn't act virtuously. I suppose if it couldn't have been anticipated, then maybe you did.

I think you're understating it; this seems to be a major point of stoicism, that you shouldn't be sad if your favourite pot was broken or your wife died or your fellow citizens denounce you and exile you, so long as you acted virtuously. You should only worry about what you can control, your own actions, not what you can't control.

All the stoic writings I've read seemed to take it as a given that you already knew what was virtuous. So if what's virtuous is solely a function of what's in your own head, then the whole thing seems solipsistic. If you define virtuous actions in terms of their results and their effects on other people then it wouldn't be solipsistic, but in that case stoicism seems to tell you very little about how to live; judging which actions are virtuous doesn't seem any easier than just judging what you should do in the first place.

It's not that simple.

Aborting chicks is better than killing them post-birth, but even so, egg-laying birds will still eventually be killed off and turned into meat/byproducts -- and the cruelty-free environments don't scale. Chickens just aren't really built to lay that many eggs, and ultimately there doesn't seem to be any way to optimize industry-level farming to care about animal health/happiness. At best we get much more expensive products that appeal to a minority of the market. Especially when you realize that a nontrivial percentage of the eggs you eat are coming from restaurants and as ingredients in pre-made foods, where there's basically no current market pressure to ethically source those materials.

In theory there could be a version of the egg industry that avoided most of these problems (yes, I know some vegans would view that as non-consensual exploitation anyway) but regardless, practice is still a long, long ways away from theory.

I know people like to believe that you can just get cruelty free eggs that solve all of these problems, and you can certainly do a lot better than just buying the cheapest brand -- and I'm not going to shame people, doing better is a good goal to have. A lot of food, even vegan food, has problematic elements that you can dig up, we're all just trying to do a bit better than the default and to be more ethical than we otherwise would be.

But while it would be really convenient if the modern egg industry was ethical, it's just very hard to argue that point.

1. The two new models are equipped with about 14-inch and 16-inch displays, respectively.
2. In terms of casing design, the new models cancel the curvy design of existing models’ top and bottom parts and adopt a flat-edged form factor design similar to the iPhone 12 .
3. The MagSafe charging connector design is restored.
4. The OLED touch bar is removed, and the physical function buttons are restored.
5. There is no Intel CPU option for the new models.
6. They are equipped with more types of I/O, and most users may not need to purchase additional dongles.

Yes, the Voronoi Diagram can be visualised as growing spheres from the given points until they reach each other ... absolutely true.

However, the final result is not "the top view of a set of spheres centered at the points". If you arrange spheres centered at the points, no matter what their sizes, there is no view where what you see is the Voronoi Diagram.

So your comment gives a useful way to think about it, but is not actually literally true.
I'm building a time series viewer / editor running in the browser.

I'm working in the ocean engineering space where we extensively use time domain simulations and need to view/edit/transform a lot of time series data. I had previously build a proprietary desktop version at my current company.

One of the key feature is the embedded expression calculator that's operating directly on the times series in a vectorized fashion.

I know it's entirely anecdotal, but I was a hardcore libertarian long before I had any income. There are literally Youtube videos of me from way back in a run down apartment, espousing libertarianism.

>>It also attracts people with an egotistical streak and those with low empathy

High ego and low empathy is also correlated with testosterone.

The silver lining is the sense of fair play mentioned by the parent comment, as well as imperviousness to superficial peripheral traits that appeal to emotion.

I remember reading that libertarianism appeals to the stereotypically male mind, but I don't know if the studies that conclusion was based on controlled for income.

Yeah, Zeldman and co are still around, and you’re right that they’re not quite what they used to be. Perhaps they’re just grown up? Kinda crazy: it was exciting to think back then that these people were making careers of this web stuff! And there’s a seeming contradiction I feel when I think now that they’re so polished and professional that I think maybe they’ve lost something. Probably it’s just that the novelty has worn off and I’m not following that particular space as closely. That’s more me than them, I suspect.

My question is: why can’t the Node installer add /usr/local/bin to the path itself (if needed)? Why force me to do it? The Windows installer did it for me. I can just type `node` or `deno` into PowerShell and it loads up a REPL. I never had to add them to `PATH`.

"Consensus on need, no consensus on action. Why are there problems that a majority find important but aren’t incentivized or paid to work on (e.g. why does it take so long and so much energy for negative externalities such as climate change to be recognized and regulated)? The tempting default seems to be inaction when there is a consensus on need but no consensus on approach."

This is so true, and it's crazy how simple some of these solutions could be. For many things, it's a matter of pricing in negative externalities into the cost of products. Like for example a sugar tax for unhealthy foods or increasing the price of gas by estimating the environmental offset. Naval said it pretty well on: https://nav.al/externalities

> This has been present for many years (for how long I do not know). Look up the "trace add variable ..." command.

I suppose I should have been more explicit. I want to know when the value the variable holds goes away, so I can clean up the resources that value represents (for example, if the value names a unique namespace that groups related values, I want to delete the namespace once the name no longer exists).

I double-checked Tcl 8.6’s OO stuff and it says you need to explicitly destroy objects, they won’t be destroyed simply because they went out of scope, so even the core language isn’t doing this.

> This is possible (if a bit clunky) with Tcl of at least V8.5 vintage by using the "apply" command.

apply does not create a nested scope. It runs the code in the global namespace (or some other namespace you specify), so it has no access to the current scope unless you use upvar within the lambda. What I want is nested variable scopes that don’t require upvar to access the outer scopes.

It's a very catchy abstraction/metaphor. It did lodge itself in my brain quite firmly once I learned of it. It can feel defeatist to acknowledge such limits in concrete terms, but you gotta work with what you got...

I know people who are comfortable saying "i'm all out of spoons/only have a few spoons left"; it's pretty useful as frameworks go, and hard to express these things so succinctly in other ways. Just saying, e.g. "I'm drained" doesn't cover it when "drained" is the baseline.

It sounds like they're taking the BBC Detection Van approach of making potential viewers of the feeds and small time pirates wonder if there is some detection technology they don't know about. That will probably work to a degree but these streamers are so pervasive it's hard to see how UFC will make a real dent. Over this year's college football season, not only have I seen many pirate streams pop up on YouTube, but have had YouTube's own recommendation algorithm recommend them to me even though I've never searched for them. Simply being a person who watches legit YouTube channels on the subject of NCAA football was enough to get these streams recommended to me. That's pretty much zero effort piracy enabled by YouTube. Sports organizations can go after YouTube for this kind of thing but that it exists even in a controlled platform like YouTube doesn't bode well for them.
