Putin's cronies buy real estate in California for their families (use En cc)
How much of this is on Trump is to be decided by the people who are going to judge him, if ever. Meanwhile everyone is entitled to have opinions on it and advocate these opinions.

However, the reality is that we have an overwhelming evidence of dangerous people doing something malicious and getting organised on some platforms, including but not limited to FB. Therefore people in immediate danger and the people who are directly assaulted or feel threatened demand actions to be taken. It's either let it run and turn into civil war or break the circuit before it goes any further.

Let's not pretend that this is about intellectual discussions, it's literally about taking power with force. People actually died and they did not die when looting or anything like that but when they were faced with counter force when they attempt to achieve their objective.

You either let it run its course and have a memorial day afterwards where you distribute medals to the best killers who survived or intervene in stop the conflict. Some people simply don't believe in the wonders of the war or don't think that there's a good enough cause for having one and currently it happens that these people are in control of the systems.
> I wonder how authors of RISC-V must feel when their architecture is being appropriated by a country that violates human rights.

Like the US? Yeah that probably does bother them.

I mean the US has killed 1000x more people and was engaged in far, far more wars in the last 50 years. Destabalisng whole regions, overthrowing governments all over the place, supported some of the most vile people ever (and still do).

But I guess morality only matters if you are bad to your own population.

They'll have no choice but to offer these services, otherwise they shall rent for lesser amounts to people without electric vehicles.
> Instead, 99% of the time they'll turn your explanation into another reason to be enraged at you, or argue you need to reconsider, or even sue you because that line of reasoning makes you liable.

Social networks seem to optimize for serving content that engages, and that typically means news with a negative sentiment. So, giving a ban with a reason would engage people for longer, to serve them more ads, and make the audience more profitable.
The bit about "no explanation" is completely fair. That's how bans on Facebook work -- nobody gets an explanation, so it's inherently fair.
> Do people... not plan ahead? Do architects not read the news?

They do read the news, but there's still plenty of news that EV is still largely powered by coal and also something about lithium mining (while never ever talking about other minig issues, particularly oil), therefore we should use hydrogen (which will need more electricity, but we skip over that) or synthetic fuels (which will need crazy amounts of electricity, but we won't mention that) and that'll be the future.

Of course you can read the other news, the ones that correctly point out that between EV, hydrogen and synfuels EV has the vast advantage of being much more efficient, and that will never change, because physics. But you can pick and choose your news, and if you would prefer the news that tell you nothing changes you may just decide to trust those.
China actually supports these laws for their own reasons as well. If China made all drugs legal there would be nothing anybody could do to stop them selling or buying drugs.

Tesla has also recently added wi-fi to their existing chargers, and will facilitate payment processing:

> With a growing number of Tesla cars on the road, a Wall Connector can pay for itself over time. Property managers will soon be able to set the price of charging sessions while Tesla handles payments automatically and securely – with no monthly fees. [1]

This is a model similar to what chargepoint offers, though I suspect it will have lower fees as their main goal is to sell more cars.

>You have to know that you're looking for `systemd.service` in the first place.

Yeah, because that's the thing you want help with.

No shit `man service` and `man systemd` aren't going to give you help for systemd services that easily.

Also, apparently you assume the user is simultaneously stupid enough to not put "systemd" and "service" in the same search query, but is meant to know to visit `https://systemd.software/service` even though it too contains both those words.

The problem is that the engineer claims he only transferred some new hire information to his Dropbox. However, Tesla claims that he grabbed a bunch of other things like scripts and was attempting to delete them after he granted Tesla security engineers access to his Dropbox. I think we'll need to wait until more information comes out because either the engineer is lying or Tesla is lying, but it should be relatively easy to tell if they have Dropbox giving them information.

If the engineer did copy scripts to his Dropbox, that is a serious security violation. Nearly everywhere I have worked, you always get security training that says under no circumstances copy company stuff to a third-party system. Even if you don't have malicious intent, security folks have no way of tracking what you do with the stuff after that.
I think "template specializations" might have been the wrong term, and what was meant was "template implementations".

This is happening in Europe[1] as well with some backpedaling that they always intended to deliver 6 doses per bottle. However, only if you proficient and you have the right equipment you can 6 doses out.

If the bottle really contains 6 doses they are within their right of course because the deal was on the dosage delivered not on the amount of bottles. Which makes sense, if it were bottles there would have been the ability for them to ship empty bottles.

What!?! People have and continue to die already from climate change and it will accelerate.

looking at literally 'global warming' actual temperatures there are examples. 1000 dead in Japan in a summer.

WHO says 250k per year starting 2030 and that's only looking at heat, diarrhea, malnutrition.

Add in pollution deaths (already huge), refugees, war.

Climate change already directly leads to death and it will become more deadly

It doesn't matters.

You are as much responsible for decisions done by your algorithms as you are for decisions done by people.

If you can not guarantee that algorithms work in the parameters of moral and law you can not use them.

It is that simple.
I’m literally a euro-peasant in my third floor apartment with street parking outside my third floor apartment window. The city has but up a bunch of charging parking stations on said street parking and it’s great. There are no gas stations on the ”island” (Södermalm, Stockholm) I live on, but a ton of electric street parking charging stations. I think the decentralisation of these types of charging stations will win in the end.

The price of electric cars currently is a problem though, but everything is pointing in the right direction.
Human psychology
Micro-transactions require micro-products, and those are a hard sell.

Compare a tangible market situation: remember the old Bazooka gum that used to say "3 cents" on each piece? Few customers are going to walk into a store and buy a single piece, no matter how cheap and frictionless payment is. At that level, the burden of thinking "I have to actually go and buy it" exceeds both the financial cost and likely the perceived upside of a single bite of gum. You can successfully sell a handful alongside another transaction, or a bag of them for a dollar, though, because you've raised the stakes of the total transaction high enough that it's worth thinking it through.

Maybe the classic micropayment story-- the individual news article/video view/song play-- is a single piece of Bazooka. Since it's likely to be ephemeral and competing with a nearly-as-good free alternative (the same content on an ad-based site), you don't have much room to make the case that it's worth going through a purchase process.

One side of this that doesn't seem to get looked at much is how many ICE cars are on the roads that could be converted. Doing conversions at high volume would be very labor intensive, but it would give dealerships and mechanics something to do, and it would generate less waste than replacing whole cars.

Right now it's kind of on the edge of being practical, mostly because of the batteries. They're expensive and bulky and they need to be fitted to cars that weren't designed for them. 200+ mile ranges aren't really realistic either, because you'd be adding too much mass that the car wasn't designed for. Conversion kits now seem to be a custom thing made in low volume for a handful of vehicles and usually cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $20,000 or so.

On the other hand, if a major manufacturer can buy batteries and motors and controllers at wholesale cost and engineer a conversion kit for their own cars, amortizing the engineering cost across thousands or hundreds of thousands of cars, then maybe you can get the cost down to something reasonable and have something where all the parts just bolt in perfectly and all the car systems work the way they're supposed to. Maybe it can be a simple as walking into a dealership and saying "I want my car to be converted to electric" and they say, "sure, just drop it off for a week and here's what it costs, etc..."

The other day I decided to change the oil in my Honda Element myself and crawled under the car. The gas tank is basically a big metal box stuck to the bottom, with a bar in front to keep it from getting scraped off by a rock. It looks a little ridiculous, like Honda designed a car and at the last moment realized "oh, we forgot about the gas tank; let's just stick it to the bottom." If gas cars are made this way, then maybe finding a spot for the batteries in a car that wasn't originally designed for them maybe isn't any worse.
Yep, now imagine a 12 year old kid going at it in 68000 Assembly, and showing their demos to other kinds in the gang.
> of a large proportion of the electorate

I’ve seen Facebook and Instagram ban accounts that have neutral content, have never posted about violence or posted lies (luxuries that Facebook offers to politicians) and have not threatened or trolled or spammed others. In all the cases I’ve seen, there has been no recourse available to get the account back. The person hits a few walls of boilerplate responses and gives up.

In some cases, like this one, Facebook or Instagram will ask for identity proof, and once collected, will still send boilerplate responses that the account can’t be activated. It’s not surprising that Facebook collected his ID and still refused to help.

As for Facebook engineers solving complex problems with machine learning, I don’t see evidence of that. If anything, Facebook has huge disconnected code bases filled with bugs and biases that nobody can understand or do anything about.

This is good riddance in a way. That Facebook and Instagram are removing users who may have stayed as decent people bringing others to engage on these platforms is a net positive to society.
Mostly corruption. Big companies pay politicians to introduce more barriers to enter the market so that there is less competition.
Okay, then replace “internet” with “dial-up private network”.
Commodity firms and other businesses in the supply chain space (shipping, logistics) have a long history of trying to build platforms to simplify global trade. While a great goal, over and over again these initiatives have failed because of immense inertia in the industries and because of the fact that every single counter-party involved in a transaction must be on the platform for it to work.

For a merchant to use Shopify, connected to Stripe, connected to Visa, working with me, it’s relatively “easy”. Not many people involved in the process and some of them (me) don’t have any power to control how the flow works.

When Cargill ships a 100,000 MT parcel of grain to be processed, there are SO many people and organisations that touch the commodity in some form. From inspection companies like SGS, to rail lines, to customs authorities, to port representatives, to ocean transportation, to banks....the list goes on. And historically the vision has been an “all or nothing” style of platform.

One day we will figure out the solution to this problem, but not anytime soon and probably not with Splinter. Four of the world’s five largest grain companies, three of the world’s five largest iron ore companies, and many more use the product that I work on (www.SEDNA.com) to manage their global supply chains, and their workflows remain to be very email-based and driven by traditional ERPs.

You see this in action with businesses like Flexport who started with a very formidable vision to build a platform for third-party logistics, and ultimately had to pivot to become a very digital freight forwarder after being trapped by the traditions and slow-moving nature of the industry.

In these organisations there is incredible buzz and thought around digital transformation, but many of these companies are also only recently beginning to trust cloud software. So although there is a big desire to innovate and operate on the cutting edge, so many primitives and so much of the day-to-day process keeps them lagging behind.

No.. I mean yes in the US but not necessary in other countries.

Not all countries free speech and anti discreminatory laws which are as weak as in the US (the US free speech law is just about government interference in free speech but not free speech itself).

In Germany this would have been in violation with multiple laws as far as I know.

But gc.collect is quite expensive. I think the parent question was, I have a large object in memory, I want to delete it now so that I can load another large object without running into memory limits. But I don't want to call gc.collect which will stop my whole application, interfer with the garbage collector heuristics, and do all sort of unecessay steps.

I had instances where I knew only one of these large structures could fit in memory and had to call gc.collect before allocating a new one, as I would get an outofmemory exception before the garbage collector would kick in by itself.

You can do that with unmanaged objects but it doesn't look like you can with managed objects (other than gc.collect which I saw on other videos is not recommended by microsoft).

I co-founded one of the first consumer-focused, secure messaging startups. I’m more than familiar with what it takes to have probably secure comms over text.

I also know that people so tin foil hat about security can never be satisfied and that this hamstrings UX and resulting in lesser use and less used secure tools.

So there is a happy medium and there’s reasonable protection to cover 96 or more % of consumer comms.

Is iMessage secure? Maybe enough to send an SSN, but maybe not to send bank info. Would I send either over sms? Nope. That’s a call anyone can make on their own.

I don’t like this service hooking into iMessage. I don’t like the always connected jailbroken phone bridge idea.

I do think apple, of all consumer products companies, has made privacy and security core values and, at least for now, I trust the company.

I don't care how matrix is involved in the beeper’s bridge functionality nor am I evaluative of the technology.

I don’t know beeper, and don’t want the product hooking into my contacts’ end of our iMessage comms.
No I had instances where I deleted an object, wanted to allocate a new one, only one of these would fit in memory, and got an outofmemory exception because the GC didn't kick in between the two. So it is not equivalent.

A genuinely impressive list. They clearly know the valuable and successful properties to throw money at. I wonder why other USA tech players passed on those kinds of investments, because they certainly had the chance, and would ostensibly have been preferable given equivalent terms.
