I think some mean "take advantage" to mean abuse of the safety net system (by some, not everyone). Which takes away from truly desperate people.
A bit of an dark pattern here everyone. The menus at the top of the site are _not_ related to the article/topic. I thought I would be looking at top books by subject and instead saw ads for online universities. Beware.
The vendor of one of the security scanning tools we had subscribed to for the past six years told us they were shutting down the product because the PM left and no one else in the company wanted to take it over. I don't know how many SEs and other resources they had on the product but it was a major part of their offerings. They didn't even have an alternate upsale (or downsale for that matter) to offer us. So strange one person leaving could collapse an entire revenue stream like that.
I’m shocked people actually use these.
Probably because nobody working at Intel was doing any actual work and were just reading/talking about Intel politics.

At the same time, news is breaking about terrorist coordination on Telegram to assasinate members of Congress in their homes.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Telegram start cleaning house as well when the eye of Sauron rightfully turns on them.
There's a lot of DBs to choose from: MongoDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL. What you want to avoid is anything from Amazon or Google ANY other similar service.
You'll never know the real timeline because law enforcement lie about the use of parallel construction to build cases.

We know that Tor isn't resistant to state-based attackers, so my money is always on global surveillance networks picking up missteps by the operators.

Home ownership is strongly influenced by culture. Germans are just happier to rent. Buying often doesn't make a lot of sense financially either. It's not much cheaper to buy than to rent and you lose a lot of flexibility. I could afford to buy a house, but I don't want to. That would just tie up a large fraction of my wealth into one fairly risky investment and make it much harder to move when my life changes.
Here't another post I made that does a really good job at explaining the whole Tether history and current situation. There is a rapidly approaching deadline for them to provide documents to the New York Attorney General, folks are very anxious to see how this court situation plays out and hopefully illuminate their relationship with Bitfinex.

Coincidence that there is a huge bitcoin ralley, and massive Tehter 'printing' going on right now? We shall see :) Get your popcorn ready!

This is all the result of Intel fab failings. They have the talent to compete, dunno if the leadership wants to take to it.

That's the total from 1-2 years (I can't find when in 2019 did they start). If that's the biggest right now, I'm surprised how small the markets are.

There's an opportunity. Marketplaces that will exist for X days only.
Exactly right. lol.
>> As opposed to the current system, which is...not destroying society?

I guess people can have different definitions of "destroying society."

I grew up in the USSR where you literally lacked physical stuff in your life that people in the rest of the world took for granted decades prior. A huge contributor to that was that people's work was rewarded on a metric other than their productive output, as measured by what society was willing to pay for in the free market.

To put it another way - we need people to produce. And we need them to produce the right stuff. The best system we have to deciding what's right is what other people use their dollars for.

If we paid people on some other metric we'd end up with a lot of bullshit work, no aspirations, and physical shortages.

I am sure your definition differs.

> Good financial decisions that lead parents to success should be studied, praised and replicated by as many people as possible. But instead we label them as "privilege"

My parents' good financial decisions are definitely my privilege. They weren't my decisions and yet I benefit. My parents' luck is definitely my privilege. The luck wasn't mine and yet I benefit. The way that society saw me as a child because of who my parents were is definitely my privilege. I didn't clothe myself or put food in my own mouth or take myself to school or buy myself books. I didn't choose to be visibly the same as those in power around me. And yet in all of those ways again I benefit. And all of the ways that one does or doesn't benefit from the entirely un-earned circumstance of being born to their parents, their parents also benefited or didn't benefit from being born to their parents, and so on. Hard work is hard work, but it doesn't eliminate privilege.

Declarative programming is something that helps deal with weird edge cases like this right? I'm learning Elixir currently and the subtle semantics around the 'traditional' assignment operator (=) are quite cool. It means you can ditch most if blocks and provide a list of pattern-matchable functions (matched on their arity) to define logic which helps deal with edge cases a little better.

I'm curious how such a declarative paradigm _may_ help with the wacky usage of software old mate Mr. Null endeavours in. No one paradigm solves all problems I feel but perhaps some allow us to harvest some low hanging fruit for free?
From the Bitcoin Magazine article:

> “Police in the northern city of Oldenburg ‘were able to arrest the alleged operator of the suspected world’s largest illegal marketplace on the darknet, the DarkMarket, at the weekend,’ prosecutors said in a statement,” according to Barron’s.

(with "Barron’s" linking to the Barron's article)

I'd call it a stretch to say Barron's is the original source. It's entirely possible Bitcoin Magazine just pulled a quote from the Barron's article, but I don't know journalism.
Here's a tldr;

>spammers, neo-nazis, and child pornographers (or any other type of content that you consider despicable)

>Wikipedia editors are predominantly white, male

There's a <<..." according to Barron’s.>> quote in the article.

Absolutely! His first campaign sounded nice, and then extremely little of note has happened. I don't like a lot of what Bloomberg did, but there was certainly more of it.

Bill de Blasio is a genuinely confusing when he isn't just being pathetic.
It raises way too many questions about where to draw the line for the concepts of control (as in the above example), detachment, and what is natural, and I don’t like inherently ambiguous worldviews because they become way too prone to highly subjective interpretation (especially true for stoicism when you try to apply it to the context of political and moral questions) and they create too many discussions that aren’t worth having (or, are only worth having with better-stated claims/philosophies that emerge from a mental model of the world that corresponds with what science confirms).
I've only worked at (very) small companies so I've never had to think about different tiers of support. The automatic summarization may be useful for better determining which specialist to route the request to, but in any case a wrong classification will get picked up by a human regardless and then re-routed appropriately. I imagine the error rate is already pretty high, so anything to automate/reduce that can go a long way.

I work in education tech where our product goes directly to students/teachers, so tolerance for "incorrect" answers generated by AI is much lower, or nonexistent.

what the hell is wrong with dating an 18 yo? I can't believe this puritanical bullshit in North America.

In Japan you can legally date Jyoshi Kousei schoolgirls and nobody gives a damn.

I'm sick of puritans in this country judging people like me because they are jealous. They know their wives are old and unattractive and they freak out because they see 30 something old with an 18 yo.

It's legal for them to be filmed on camera doing all sorts of depraved stuff and sold online but OH NO-WE CANT LET A THIRTY YEAR OLD dudes dating 18 yo.

If they're propping Intel up as their last bastion of chip superiority they've already lost. The US knows they need to defend Taiwan with the full weight of their military resources. This means war in the event of an invasion or takeover.

If the US loses influence over Taiwan and subsequently TSMC, they've lost. In this phase of global geopolitics, whoever controls the chips has the influence. You can't do anything without compute resources.
I mean that it's not usually the language or the framework, but what overall interactions look like. If static HTML loads slowly, yes, it's the backend, but that's not what most sites look like these days; they're rich, client-side apps making lots of API and resource requests, not to mention overhead something like React adds.

My browser is set to not accept cookies from sites I don't have a relationship with, because … well, frankly, I don't know why the rest of y'all still let shady people on the Internet use your hard disk for their ad tracking.

So, that link (like so many), just plain doesn't work. It just loads a white screen.

There are many sites like this on the Internet. Twitter waffles between working and "Ooops! something went wrong!". I've sent patches to Rust's documentation to fix it to work with cookies disabled. (But it won't persist any settings you change, of course, which is what it uses the cookies for.)

> managers sit on their ass drinking coffee all day

You have experience with some really terrible managers. Have a look at other places.
Not everyone lives in the US, here 120 USD equals to half a month of minimum wage.
Because it's cheaper to serve people's needs in big cities than everywhere else. The suburbs are inefficient as hell and killing our planet.

People spend too much time looking looking at dollar amounts and not enough time thinking about the actual work being done. I'd expect better from what purports to be a site full of engineers.
Sad really. I was so passionate about hardware then. I lost interest because the innovation just dropped off a cliff. We were nearly exponential before the Core i series. Interestingly during that period Servers have had many-core CPU's. It just seems that Intel hasn't had a reason to push the envelope on the consumer side.
You mean the 12V battery right?
Proactively recall to replace with what?

It's not like the regs and/or Tesla have fixed the discovered flaw in a new design, and will be replacing the old part with the newly designed part. In that case proactive recall would make sense.

But that's not the case here. Here if you've only used 0.5 of 8Gb, and Tesla is required to make a recall, all Tesla is doing is replacing your old unit with the exact same model but now 8Gb free space instead of 7.5Gb free.

Instead, if a new design is not developed, shouldn't it be treated like a recurring maintenance? like when the memory is 6 or 7Gb full, the user gets a warning to take it to the repair to have the unit replaced, or something.

Also why isn't the memory emptied from time to time? old data should be of no use and should be backed up to Tesla cloud, or user's cloud storage outside the vehicle or something? In which case the whole exercise is moot.
>"Whoops I forgot to turn my VPN on"

Why would someone be using a VPN if they're using tor for the market? Why would a VPN offer any protection at all? If you're using a VPN and "SSH into one of the servers that they are already watching", then a VPN isn't going to provide anonymity.
Not the GP, but I'd guess the difference is an order of magnitude for both stress and comp.
Enjoyed programming SPARC but today, the taint of Oracle is terrifying. I assume they'd like to charge me royalties on the fond memories I have from Sun's days.
On the contrary, if privileged people believe everything is purely hard work for everyone, then they will be less likely to be generous to others, to help "make luck" for other people. So as a society, we're shooting ourselves in the foot by not acknowledging the role of others.
Agree. Maybe there are many small ones now rather than few huge ones. Would be interesting to see total dark market transactions by year.

I use their yellow mini router with 2x Ethernet and 1x WiFi 2.4 just as a media converter between WiFi and Ethernet for the laser printer that is too far from an Ethernet plug. That printer doesn’t have a WiFi card natively so instead I use that router to act like it. It’s a stony hello box, powered by usb (directly off the printer, this HP laser jet has a USB port to add storage to it) It runs openwrt internally from the factory, and you can click “advanced” to access LuCI and openwrt. It has one button to set it to WDS repeater and pass dhcp through. It’s pretty good, and I have no complaints.

China doesn't need to trample Taiwan, they can simply afford to hire the best engineers out of TSMC at 2.5x pay because Chinese companies are backed directly by the Chinese government and can afford to throw tons of money at this problem.

I'm sure not all engineers at TSMC are willing to relocate from Taiwan to China but pretty much everything is for sale if the price is high enough.

I agree with your overall comment in that Microsoft is not bad, but calling Windows 'open source' when the only ways to access it involves a long application process and a lot of money is quite a stretch. Nearly all source code is open under these definitions, as you can always pay for access, get hired, hack their servers or straight out buy the company. That's not what people usually consider open.
Perfect game from tech companies. They put you on a stramge position. To be against censorship you have to defend trump. Yes you should defend him. Because censorship is more important than Trump.

Obviously for facebook.com he would only be able to serve an unencrypted HTTP version (and HSTS-preloading would prevent that working in most cases), but by controlling the .ly ccTLD he could acquire TLS certificates for any "national" site. I'm not sure if any of that is relevant, though.

Well, that's okay. I'll be able to buy acid at Walgreens in 15 years anyway.
I don’t see how a string “null” would break anything besides a very stupidly written program (e.g., one which tries to eval() the input) or an ordinary program written in a very stupid language (e.g., one which tries to coerce strings to other types—PHP, is that you?).

I’m a big fan of pattern matching (especially statically verified pattern matching so sorry elixir), but I don’t see how it would help here.
>"Some of zForth's highlights:

o Small dictionary: instead of relying on a fixed cell size, the dictionary is written in variable length cells: small and common numbers take less space then larger, resulting in 30% to 50% space saving

o Portable: zForth is written in 100% ANSI C, and runs on virtually all operating systems and all architectures. Tested on x86 Linux/Win32/MS-DOS (Turbo-C 1.0!), x86_64, ARM, ARM thumb, MIPS, Atmel AVR and the 8051.

o Small footprint: the kernel C code compiles to about 3 or 4 kB of machine code, depending on the architecture and chosen cell data types.

o Tracing: zForth is able to show a nice trace of what it is doing under the hood, see below for an example.

o VM: Implemented as a small virtual machine: not the fastest, but safe and flexible. Instead of having direct access to host memory, the forth VM memory is abstracted, allowing proper boundary checking on memory accesses and stack operations.

o Flexible data types: at compile time the user is free to choose what C data type should be used for the dictionary and the stacks. zForth supports signed integer sizes from 16 to 128 bit, but also works seamlessly with floating point types like float and double (or even the C99 'complex' type!)

o Ease interfacing: calling C code from forth is easy through a host system call primitive, and code has access to the stack for exchanging data between Forth and C. Calling forth from C is easy, just one function to evaluate forth code."

> Most driving interactions in a Tesla are through the stalk or knob rollers on the steering wheel (that adjust based on situation). It is very well thought out.

Does the tesla know that I've changed heading and the sun is now providing some radiative heating and the thermostat can be turned down? Does it know that I got a chip off my windshield that affects the cameras, and I need to manually turn the windshield wipers (or brights, or etc) on and off every time a vehicle passes and sprays me? Maybe I just want a big ol' power/volume knob to turn it off and on easily without looking - most cars have those on the steering wheel and I hate them.

(To be clear, I love Tesla and I truly hope they continue to succeed - but even more, I hope Toyota et al get it through their thick heads that BEVs are the future and gain ground in a hurry. Competition should make everyone better...)
