Well, I was more wondering if there is some correlation between the occurrence of car thefts and the sensitivity of car alarms. Do they make the alarms less sensitive in countries with less car thefts?
It works great if you only consume content through the Internet, but if you frequently write text in text fields, it's inevitable that one gets tripped up by it. I run into this problem a little uncommonly, but it does happen. Conversely, I haven't used the hotkey to go back since the 90s, so I'm not sad to see it go.

Is there a history of bad faith claims in the courts? I suspect there isn't or at best very limited. It goes like this:

1. MPA sends a notice, content is taken down/disabled

2a) No response to takedown notice is sent, because the next step MPA can take after that is to take you to court. If you win the best case scenario is you recover your legal costs (but not the time). Content stays down.

2b) A response to takedown notice is sent, content gets restored. MPA doesn't go to court, unless it's a slam dunk case or it's important enough to bully someone into submission with legal costs (you pay those out of your pocket with hope of maybe getting most of it back at some point, possibly years later). Victim doesn't go to court for compensation, because it's almost certain that even with a resounding win what they recover is going to be less than legal fees.

The actual number of cases that see the courtroom is likely very, very small.
pavlov is right.

Early versions of Windows all ran in real mode. Multiple Windows programs were loaded into the same real mode address space (no protection) and co-operatively multitasked based on the GUI's messaging infrastructure. (A program could just stop processing GUI messages and totally monopolize the CPU.) There was also some limited support for memory relocation via a block lock/unlock mechanism built into the memory manager. If you wanted to run a DOS program, this was all suspended, with the DOS program given control over the full machine in the interim.

What Windows/386 did is put a 386-specific V86 multitasker called VMM underneath all of this. This multitasker had isolation between the processes it ran, one of which would be the Windows GUI environment I described above and others could be other DOS Programs, for which there were also provisions to put the output into a window of the GUI. This is really the first moment Windows got protected mode support, although none of the user processes actually saw the larger address space.

It's Windows 3.0 that let the GUI itself run in protected mode, albeit still with 64K segmentation. Combined with some graphics and usability improvements in 3.0, this is really why 3.0 'got it right' in terms of feature set and price point.

Windows for Workgroups 3.11 then moved the file system to protected mode, a product called Win32s let Windows programs themselves use 32-bit segment addressing, and combination of all of that that was the foundation for the 'fully 32-bit' Windows 95, which just moved a bunch more functionality into 32-bit code and the VMM 32-bit multitasker originally introduced in Windows/386.

This argument is misleading because even if it’s not the full 7-9, it is certainly greater than 0. We can argue what the exact percentage is, but saying there was 0 lost sales is just as wrong as saying 7-9 lost sales.
> ZERO charges of rioting. ZERO charges of attempted kidnapping. ZERO charges of insurrection. ZERO charges related to congress-people in any way, shape or form.

The initial charges in any event like this are whatever is easiest to get to withstand a probable cause hearing. Serious charges that aren't immediately, trivially clear from the circumstances of arrest take more time (especially in the Federal system, where serious charges require indictment or the defense agreeing to proceed by information, which usually only happens with a plea bargain.)

Also, the District Court-charged unlawful entry on restricted building or grounds charges (which sound superficially similar to the D.C. Superior Court-charged unlawful entry on public property charges) are, actually, much more serious offenses about the more limited zones designated for the security of the President, Vice President, President-elect, VP-elect, and other Secret Service protectees.

> The closed source version of ES is called Splunk or DataDog.

No, these are services which probably use some kind of search/indexing service in their implementation. They don't provide a database interface.

I think your answer boils down to "pick the right tool for the job". Of course state machines are cumbersome for systems with loads of different states and transitions.

But state machines are really useful when designing safety-critical systemsfor aeronautical, automotive or train components, especially if one uses timed automata for modelling.

It's possible to either generate the code from the model or use the model to automatically generate a complete test suite for the modelled system. Very useful for verification purposes.
I'm using the same standard of evidence as those that claim the election was "stolen", "rigged", "totally rigged election I won bigger than the biggest winner of all time".

If you want to clamor for higher standards of evidence, start with them.

Also the mob's purpose was to disrupt the electoral process and to coerce Pence to subvert the will of the American people. The evidence is plastered all over the internet in the many videos posted by said insurrectionists.

Insurrection: a violent uprising against an authority or government.

Let's see 5 people dead(check, violent).

Attempting to destroy democracy in American by attempting to nullify the vote of the people (check, definitely an uprising against the government).

Edit: And... conspiracy charges just filed: https://www.wsj.com/articles/first-conspiracy-charges-filed-.... Be real, there are going to be many charges related to this event, it's a common practice to use a limited set of charges to begin the arrest and prosecution process and filling in more charges as the investigations progresses.
Of all the arguments to be had, this seems the weakest. 75M people voted for Trump. Of those, almost 80% believe the election was stolen. According to Politico, there's still 10% (higher by some other polls) of Democrats who also believe the election was not legitimate.

Getting just 1% of them (the serious believers) to show up would be around 700,000 people. Most claims are under half that number. That's not a lot when considering true believers who think it's their last chance to save America.
There are real uses for AWS Buckets that are public and cost you money. Distributing files, acting as a webhost, anything that you’d use dropbox with link sharing for.

Yes, it sucks if someone randomly decides to download files from you all day. You should probably set your budget to alert and attempt to blacklist them when it happens. That’s rare, though, and aside from a few cases of actual malice, the convenience is worth the cost.

Most people who are idiots are not terrorists either.

On average a terrorist would be smarter than the average person. Terrorists are highly motiviated individuals, they can deeply understand an ideology and they activity learn/train in specialized skills. Compared to the average person their IQ would be 20 points higher.

Being a terrorist isn't easy. It's not a job for everyone.

I'm talking about speedsubs as something distinct from rips of professional simulcasts; I don't consider those fansubs at all.

Real fansub groups used to compete to be the first to release their translations, so you wouldn't have translation checks or as many editing passes.

Nowadays, the simulcasts (and the rips thereof) are faster than any speedsub could possibly be, so the remaining fansubbers definitely put more effort into quality.

> Back in the 4:3 days when anime was vbr and sources were interlaced fansub groups would go through frame by frame doing pulldown and denoising. It was amazing.

You don't need to do denoising and deinterlacing these days, so... I'm not sure why you think things were better back then? Nowadays encoders are more concerned about banding in particular, so they may specifically add noise on a scene-by-scene basis.

> When's the last time you've seen high quality karaoke on fansubs?

If you get actual fansubs these days instead of simulcast rips, you'll find they have high quality karaoke. I particularly remember the Railgun S karaoke which had realistic-looking lightning striking each syllable. And more recently, you may find the English translations have been worded so that you can sing along in time with the original song.

> You don't often see translation notes any more either.

If you're talking about TL notes in the subtitles themselves, they really went out of style. Nobody wants to be the next "Translator's note: keikaku means plan".
This is a very good article.

Container networking is as simple as linux networking, which isn't.

Its as much of a faff now as it was when I was doing KVM virtualisation professionally (don't, pay and use VMware. You'll be much happier, and have lots of free time)

To debug its a massive arse and lacks any useful and friendly debugging tools.

One thing that does help is either to use VLANs or a second adaptor to separate container traffic from control. It makes debugging slightly easier. By easier, I mean that when you accidentally misconfigure it, there is a better chance that you'll be able to get control of the host still.
It does :) Download Brave and navigate to the following URL for a quick demo:

I'm not sure if I'd count Horriblesubs as speedsubs. They didn't make their own subs, they just ripped the official subs (which is why they called them horrible). The group shut down a few months ago.
Why would I want to write my first draft in a different tool than my subsequent drafts? Nobody cares about visual styles, but my editor sends back their thoughts with inline edits and comments in Word. It's so much easier to edit in Word. I'm a huge Markdown fan, but it raises the question:

I’m burnt out, but it’s more from the chaos than anything else. Unfortunately work is adding to the chaos due a decision to pull forward massive company changing plans by 3 years, meaning that we have to prepare to change everything during all of this externally generated chaos.

I’d probably have fallen apart if I still worked at an office. WFH has given me the ability to give up when I’m completely fried, or go and do other things to de stress rather than just break down at my desk. In an office I’d feel the pressure to stay at my desk and fake working, which would’ve probably been much too much for me.

A design decision that was perfectly appropriate in 2005 might not make so much sense in 2020. That's okay.

Threading is much more prolific today than it was 15 years ago. Multicore processors are the norm today and there are plenty of great libraries out there which make threading easier, and less error prone than it used to be. It is common today for language libraries to keep thread pools available for executing small concurrent operations. In such a case, knowing what thread was consuming resources probably wouldn't help much in tracking down the issue.

So yeah, I agree with your suggestions. I think they make a lot of sense today. In fact, I bet of the original author were creating htop in 2020, they would make these changes.
It is slightly more, yes. However, you're going to have a hard time convincing me that it's as significant as they claim. The people buying used games don't feel that the game is worth risking the new game price. Also, it gives them more freedom to sell if they didn't like it.

The digital platform is about locking the user in no matter what. No chargebacks, no ownership, etc. Do a charge back Sony bans your console and locks you out of the games you "purchased". End of.
You can’t “counter-sue” for misuse of copyright, nor is it a “normal punishment.” It’s a defence you can use to avoid liability when someone else sues you, and an exceptional one at that [1]. As noted on Wikipedia, the court in Lasercomb [2] made it clear that copyright misuse does not render the copyright permanently unenforceable:

> This holding, of course, is not an invalidation of Lasercomb's copyright. Lasercomb is free to bring a suit for infringement once it has purged itself of the misuse.

That's a configurable setting off all of the last few cars we've owned. There's no need for any beeping, honking, or anything else when the lights flash, as far as I'm concerned.
I second the point that a sum over exercises of different types is likely not very meaningful. In this article [1], Greg Nuckols describes how, intuitively, the standard deviation increases with the average size of a measure of strength [2], which suggests that otherwise significant changes in small lifts could get overshadowed by statistical noise in the big lifts, so it would make more sense to analyze the effect sizes for individual exercises. The relevant part is under The whole article is also a fun read to get a sense for the statistical/experimental design considerations in exercise science, and looking at research results with a critical eye.

Gamestop certainly wouldn't pay enough for me to sell to them; I'd rather sell or give to a friend, or sell on a marketplace for somewhere between Gamestop's buy and sell prices. Most of the independent used game shops have tighter spreads as well.

This past year, I bought Animal Crossing for the Switch; even though I was pretty sure I wouldn't like it. As expected, I didn't like it, but I had a friend who wanted it, and I could mail it to them. That's a "lost sale" in video game accounting; but if it was tied to my switch, I would have never bought it, and my friend wasn't planning to buy it, but is thrilled to have it.

A book doesn't need to be intentionally made difficult to copy, because in its natural form, it's a lot of effort to copy. There's not enough money to be saved by copying a book to make it worthwhile, except for maybe textbooks.

You read my comment before you replied right?

You completely dodged the one thing that is actually asked of the reader and tried to jump over the fact this entire thread is based on insinuating an abject lie: that anyone downplayed the George Floyd protests or what happened on Pennsylvania Avenue in any way.

And how is saying that a successful breach of the Capitol Building while congress was trying to certify a new president that resulted in Congresspeople being subject to a clear and eminent danger...

should naturally be a bigger deal than people the Secret Service of all organizations are saying never posed a threat...

excusing the latter?

It's saying call a spade a spade.

Some people just can't handle that though. They need to act like it's not that big of a deal and the fact breaching the Capitol building tends to turn up the heat more than a group that never made it to the fence of the White House is a conspiracy.

If you can't handle the heat, don't breech the Capitol with Congress in session.
Most people here could hack together some basic keyword searches for questionable content in a day at the outside. I think we can assume that Facebook already has the tools to run those searches at scale and act on the results.

So I don't think there's any good reason to disagree with you.

At best, Facebook has prioritised "engagement" - i.e. ad revenue - over unacceptable extremism. At worst Facebook is knowingly complicit in the politics and in the polarisation that is being generated.

It would be impossible to know which of those is true without access to internal records. But there should at least be an investigation asking these questions.

And not just of Facebook, but of all the social tech and media giants.

well I had muffled pipes, not straight pipes and I never gunned the bike with people around or at stop lights. In the parkade I would put around. The reason for the alarms going off was the resonance and vibration of the bike with its crappy rubber engine mounts. I have always found tuner cars with their fat pipe exhausts way worse.

Since I've lived in US cities, yes. Almost daily do I hear a car alarm.

Probably just a factor of:

1. More cars around me in the city than in the small town I came from.

2. More things that can set off the alarms (loud motorcycles being a big one).
