> FBI: Pipe bombs at RNC, DNC were planted night before capital riot

Yeah, but how is Pelosi going to blame Trump for that?

Add this to the list of inconvenient facts that I haven't seen mentioned on HN aside from my posts:

1) Pelosi declined before the Capitol rally to pay for additional Capitol security.

2) One of the first rioters to enter the Capitol building admitted to being BLM/antifa. A jounalist who was there recognized several others as antifa.

3) It's common for politicians in both parties to call for demonstrating on the Hill. One Democrat did that years before Jan. 6.
If you look at any legislation that’s been proposed to address this, in the EU or anywhere else, it hasn’t been anything that’s going to make the situation any better. Lots of governments around the world are very upset that these cartels have the ability to restrict people’s access to the internet without any oversight or due process. But that’s not because they think it’s harmful for peoples access to these services to be taken away without any oversight or due process, they just want to be the ones wielding that power.
I want to ask what you mean when you say „we”. Our species Homo sapiens evolved about 200-300k years ago.

I think one question is how much would doing it with this arbitrary restriction improve the experience for users of the site - for example I wouldn't be able to add tracking of any sort, or any social media icons to like and share content because I wouldn't be able to find how to add them without searching.
no. I think the turing thing is very important. Because just like Galileo it's a culturally normative thing to hate on gay sex back then just like hating on solar centrism was. And I think a lot of the other prejudices against far out ideas are going to be these bullshit culturally normative bigoted biases that turn out to be incorrect. Just like the blanket Western cultural bias against tcm. almost just like the marijuana thing...you know "marijuana turns you into the devil and makes you crazy"... "gay sex is morally wrong." All of this bullshit kind of was eventually overturned in the tide of public opinion but at the time people were so certain (just like witchcraft) you know that there was a reality to their demonization.

So no, won't rewrite nor retract. Is important to keep it in to reinforce how relative alot of this is.

I think you probably got upset by assuming I was associating gay sex with some sort of absolute measurable moral position. Hopefully what I said has reassed you that's not the case and let you feel better about it.

Btw good point about crank aspects not tainting the whole. Maybe sometimes what we think of as crank is simply undiscovered science. Maybe Newton would have had a better theory if he knew something more about nuclear transmutation.

I think there's a spectrum of these crank things though some stuff like flat Earth come on that has to be false.

But i think we should be giving more due, and less crank, to people like Hancock.. i know it's a personal thing tho, how your feel about a particular person. I just don't like to see a groupthink pile on, from any group.
I know that, there's a lot of magic going on due to that choice of indirect implementation.

Writeup on CVE-2021-3156
Its similar to but not quite the same as the jump from 8 bit color and 16 bit color. White is white and black is black but you'll get more color precision in between. Gradients will have less color banding because of less rounding and color aliasing.

Its a bit different because of some of the intricacies of how the new formats are represented. The range is indeed dynamic and that can be exploited to get more precision in a smaller range.

However, calling it HDR is (imo almost purposfully) confusing because of HDR photography which has a lot of other concepts as well as hardware vendors promising the moon.

TV vendors also like to conflate it with brightness or accuracy which are goals for any TV, HDR or not. Brighter whites and blacker blacks is what you are promised but I think its better to think of it as less crushing (greys getting rounded to white and black).

Uh oh
I don't think racial identity is commutive. People seem to think it's commutive where if you swap the values the classification of racism remains the same, and I disagree with that. I don't fully understand it yet, but I think it's because our society on whole (in the United States) is sufficiently racist that it invalidates the premise of the substitution being commutive.

Where commutivity of addition is a + b = b + a.

Commuitivity of racism would be black person called a white person something bad for behavior x which is not equivalent to white person called black person something bad for same behavior x.

In this case "White men are so fragile and the mere presence of a Black person challenges every single thing in them" in response to Liam Neeson’s confession that he once roamed the streets looking for Black men to harm. Is not equivalent in a sense of the speaker being racist as "Black men are so fragile and the mere presence of a White person challenges every single thing in them" in response to (I'm making up a fictional situation to find some equivalent scenario) where let's say Denzel Washington saying a confession that he once roamed the streets looking for White men to harm. Do they have racial overtones? Yes. Are they equivalent? Absolutely not. The world Liam Neeson lives in is a white person's world where the dominant culture is white and a black person has to be searched for. He was caught in his mind demonizing black people and being racist searching for them to harm for it. In this hypothetical Denzel Washington is clearly a minority, not only targeted and put upon by white people but also other minorities. To find a white person, he only has to step outside and walk a block at best.

Even the construction of this sentence seems so ridiculous: "Black men are so fragile and the mere presence of a White person challenges every single thing in them". Black people have had to deal with racism and being the odd person out due to their race since they gained social awareness as a child. They've dealt with that BS long since being alive. White people like Liam Neeson "White men are so fragile and the mere presence of a Black person challenges every single thing in them" makes sense since he's encountered so few black people and he's built up this false belief about Black people from the racist media and his social group and he has to try to find black people to hurt.

I've read users' reports of using that input stats screen to confirm 10 bit input.

They used a certified hdmi 2.1 cable to Nvidia 3090, and 3080 should also do it. Not sure if the new consoles are pushing 10bit but they should be.

> seem to blame hedgefunds for every inequality problem in society.

Ah, if that is your core question, that one is easy. Because most people can't think about so complex questions properly (or are unwilling, lazy, or haven't been taught), and they simplify the world into emotional picture, for example blame someone. Then it's just a question of finding who to blame, today a popular answer is "rich hedge funds".

The UK Government haven't yet made any specific statement about the vaccine export ban yet, have they? The only statement has been about the Northern Island border.

> and the UK somehow being blamed for a contractual dispute between the EU and AstraZeneca

Agreed. The only "people" that seem to be blaming the UK Gov are the media.

> Even if the UK was somehow being duplicitous here,

The AZ-UK contract will say similar things to the EU contract, and AZ are upholding their part of the contract at the moment, delivering 'best reasonable efforts', and for all countries they've signed with. They're behind on deliveries for the UK as well. The UK signed commercial contracts with AZ, Pfizer and so on, as you would normally do.

One of the problems is that the EU contract (and others, presumably) just isn't worded specifically enough. VdL and the EU are choosing to read 'best reasonable efforts' to mean different things [0], when in contract law it has a very specific and well understood meaning. As a result, VdL does not want to respect the queue of nations that have ordered before the EU that have also signed similar contracts to which AZ has similar, if not identical, contractual obligations.

If this goes to the ECJ (?), AZ vs EU, it would be surprising, and worrying if the ECJ ruled in favour of the EU. Many companies would be reluctant to sign future contracts with the EU if they thought the EU would just ride roughshod over them.

I recall reading that the supply of lipids (I'm probably wrong, I can't find the link) for the vaccine come from the UK, so if that's true, I really hope for everyone's sake, it doesn't turn into a pathetic tit-for-tat blocking of exports.

Right now a lot of people are getting vaccinated - an unprecedented achievement. Did that happen by magic? That’s one example that a federal plan existed, and there are plenty of others if you care to look for yourself.

It’s been 12 months now since the US banned flights from China. A lot has happened since then. People can differ on whether the federal plan was a good one (I happen to believe it wasn’t very good), but to believe there was no plan at all is just mental self-harm.

If they get out before crashes. Otherwise you could end up at zero again after being in for a decade. Maybe that was timed just with your retirement when you were about to make use of your now vanished gains.
afaik these vaccines, once administered, have a long-lasting effect.

It shouldn't matter then whether the same amount is applied all at once or little by little. But the latter approach has the benefit of some protection earlier.

Perhaps I've misunderstood your point, but in conclusion, there should be no social health benefit in deliberately delaying vaccination.
They didn't decide actions on market, they pulled back their loan to the users which forced the positions to close, as with any other broker (others are transparent about it though). Not that I approve but that's a difference.
I can see the difference in my 8-bit desktop background gradient, which is blue, and I don't think that's surprising at all since it's a brightness/value difference which is probably perceived through more cells (or more sensitively) in the eye. I can't link a study either but I'd like to have 10-bit even if it's just for the light axis.

Coincidentally in a YUV encoding I'd only push the V axis to 10 bit - maybe even 12 to cover extra HDR range, i.e. higher absolute brightness when the display supports it. (Or go with a logarithmic encoding, in which case even 8 bit might be enough...)
> Nobody cares about the people who are "unsophistocated people who have bought into the frenzy", especially if they get screwed.

This is in fact exactly who most people care about, in this situation. It may not be who the extremely-online people that this board is mostly comprised of care about, but they are not most people.

> Further, they shouldn't care about them because anyone who doesn't understand what's going on deserves to get whatever happens to them.

This is directly at odds with how markets are regulated, because there is a long history of this thinking leading to widespread scams and cons.
Ah yes the good old covid story - sovereign states order some medicine/medical equipment from the companies, and on the airport upon sending it to the country comes US government officials with few extra (freshly printed) suitcases of money to change delivery of that order. Remember quite a few articles from spring about that. 3rd world countries having no chance of receiving what was agreed upon.

I mean I understand, when SHTF its everybody for themselves and fuck the rest. I guess in some twisted view a human nature. But I really have to severely twist it and leave any morals behind the door. Next time somebody will be praising US as some force of good in this world, well they can go fuck themselves too.

Impact on other people is different. It is not just abpit what you feel, but also what you do.

> Aren't these just degrees of the same?

The big immediate difference is how you treat other people. If you get angry internal emotion and then think about it, you end up treating other people well. And that emotion just helped to not be complete pushover - you noticed issue and can be assertive of needed.

Fly off handle implies that other people have to deal with your emotions, because you are throwing them at them. Basically they are more "victims". It also does not work as well as healthy assertivity, because they will seek retaliation or conclude you are asshole or avoid you etc. They will respond to you acting aggressively by protecting themselves and reacting to their feelings.
Piłsudski proposed to do preventive invasion of nazi Germany in 1935. At the time it would have been a walk in the partk. France and Great Britain declined because they played "balance of power" and wanted Germany to be a counterbalance to soviet Russia.

I've coined a term for these FANGA interviews: Epiphany Lottery.

You need to come up with the correct answer in less than 2 minutes, twice, within 45 minutes. Because it runs twice, you will only have 15 minutes to write up the code to handle all the edge cases your solution can't cover for. There is simply no time, nor expectation, for the candidate to reason about a problem and actually work out a solution.

And that's for a single interview slot.
It’s mostly about casing though - density is important with enterprise stuff, and noise level is almost irrelevant hence small chassis with small, loud, fans.

I’ve got a 3.5” x16 bay gooxi chassis that I’ve put a supermicro mb + xeon in.

Something like this:

https://www.xcase.co.uk/collections/3u-rackmount-cases/produ...

I got this specific nas chassis because it got a fan wall with 3x120mm fans, not because I need bays.

With a few rather cool SSD’s for storage and quiet noctua fans it is barely a whisper.

Also - vertical rack mounting behind a closet door!
I can have a massive chassis that basically takes no place at all. Can’t belive I didn’t figure that one out earlier...
> To give you an idea how tight that is, 64KB (code in ROM) is just 12 paper pages (60 lines of 80 columns) of text

To be fair, this is machine code, so it's what, 4-10 bytes for an instruction and two or three of these per line of high level code? So it's probably comparable to a few thousand "pages" of C code.

But it's still pretty amazing.

While you are correct on not looking at keyboard, trying to type as fast as possible is wrong way to learn it.

Just as with any instrument, you don't want to learn to play it as fast as possible, but rather first you learn it slow and correct and only then ramp up speed but only as long as that speed still feels almost effortless.

I have first learned QWERTY at school (yea, fun school...) but learned it the way you presented. Then couple of years later I decided to learn typing properly and re-learned with Dvorak. I used metronome initially and dropped it after couple of days.
Are you sure the panel you are viewing on is in fact also 8bits/color? The only time I have experienced what you are describing was when the panel turned out to be 6bpc - at the time I was working with raw data from a 12 bit sensor.

In fact, there was a Mac emulator for that Amiga that, using the same CPU and hardware accelerated graphics, ran Mac software much faster than the Mac did.
I don’t remember VGA doing millions of colors. I thought it did 256 colors, at best.

Wikipedia agrees with that (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_Graphics_Array), but adds “The 640×480 16-color and 320×200 256-color modes had fully redefinable palettes, with each entry selected from an 18-bit (262,144-color) gamut.”. That, I don’t remember knowing, even reading that.

So, a quarter of a million, but only 256 at a time. I think the Macintosh II, doing 256 colors out of 16.7 million, looked better, especially with a Trinitron display (https://everymac.com/monitors/apple/classic_monitors/specs/a...).

IB's CEO Thomas Peterffy said on CNBC that their intent was to protect large market participants, including clearing houses.

The article you cited quotes the Webull CEO saying that Apex dictated restrictions on specific stocks. That is at odds with the story that it was just a matter of brokers not being able to meet collateral requirements.

One consistent theme seems to be that clearing houses are behind this, and that their restrictions were not dictated by a formula, but were more arbitrary.
