Legal counsel is a common exception to NDAs. Different jurisdictions have different specific rules. And most people would have tried to hide it. But saying you can't do that isn't true categorically.

She could have taken files that weren't material. But that's just speculation.

Google claimed the documents went to multiple external accounts. So they must know which accounts. So Mitchell could say who owned them. And they could verify.

Any lawyer will tell you to preserve evidence yourself if you can.

How would people sympathetic to her cause preserve evidence without violating Google's policies?

What might be disclosed during the trial is the same as if Google provided the files.
Of course, the Silver Line was basically designed for the purpose (in addition to providing a modicum of public transit in the developing Seaport area). As you say, the Blue Line just makes an East Boston stop in the general vicinity of the airport which may be closer than economy parking which is roughly in Canada.

What underlying value does btc buy or hold? It's rarely accepted anywhere.

How can it be made stable? It's risky to invest large sums in if it can just collapse at any time.

Is it even demonstrably secure against the potential of malicious original owners/operators running away with large sums of money? If there are original owners/operators, where's the governance, paper trail, and audit of them?

What if there are security or structural flaws? Who's going to fix them? Who decides what fixes to implement? Who reviews the fixes?

How can it can be converted to money if countries make exchanges illegal or tax it into oblivion?

Ask HN: Why no filter for exact dupes?
Why doesn't HN have a filter against exact dupes, posted hours apart? It seems like an obvious feature.

Like this:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26205064

There are going to be false negatives due to semantically exact dupes that are not exactly the same URL. Even the same URL can be spelled differently; e.g. trailing backslash or not, domain redirects, URL encoding.

Still, it seems worth having some sort of similarity function which at least warns the user with an extra prompt.
I am curious here. Why is that an antipattern in said case?

In particular, page based pagination requires a permanent set of elements that are sortable.

Sortable, indeed, you sort based on a scoring mechanism.

Permanent, nopes. If you save page 4 of search page and take a look at it next week, it might be different.

If pagiantion should be properly implemented in a search engine it would be like in elasticsearch where it is transaction and cursor based. But hey, carrying around millions of open transactions is not feasible.

So it seems to be a fair trade off to make an infinity scroll like feature for this.

But again, please enlighten me. I am curious.
=~ is nice and convenient but I really don't think <> was worth bringing back. I'm sure people who never used Perl could figure out what `buf =~ /${regexp}/` does, but I wonder if they'd be able to figure out the `while (buf = <>)`.

Perl has a lot of good ideas and things I find myself missing a lot when I use Python or JS (autovivification being probably #1) but IMO these one or two symbol magic variables would generally be improved if they were more descriptive, with maybe one exception for $_/@_.

Although I must admit reminiscing about this made me realize how much I miss Perl now that I'm forced to use Python for work.
It is, the hook is that it's on a "invite only" basis so it has the whole exclusivity. Imagine an actual club where celebs hang out, and that's hard to get in, so people line up to try to join in on the party, yet the "cool people" cut the line and have access to it.

So you're cool if you're already in, you know?

It got hyped up when Elon Musk joined and roasted Vlad from Robinhood, and suddenly everyone wanted an invite.

It's a interesting concept, but it was driven by celebrities hype and exclusivity ... but what isn't like that currently? Stocks, Crypto, you name it.
Imagine if we lived in a society healthy enough that kids could have more of a proto-adult status.

Funny, I would describe HN as the same.

I'm on HN because the topics interest me as a computer programmer. But I don't share the common HN conceit that commenters on HN are better than elsewhere. IMO there's no evidence of that. Some of those within the HN bubble think very highly of themselves, but they may not be aware of the utter contempt that many outside the HN bubble have for "the orange site". (By the way, I could share a little CSS to add dark mode support and a few other tweaks to HN, if anyone is interested.)

It's like a recursive function, where you resolve to stop interfering with the lower universe once the upper universe stops interfering with you. You run it N times until nothing happens in your universe. That means you're N universes deep in the stack.

What was the rational for Apple making the M1 Macs so difficult (for lack of a better way to say it) than the older macs. Example is currently you can't easily boot from an external drive [1] a feature that many people found very useful. [2]

The answer to the question is not 'oh sure for security reasons'. I am wondering how making it so difficult for what I would call the majority of power or experienced or even regular users to do certain things on an M1 Mac. That is what is gained (so what is it?) vs. what is lost.

Who threat is the audience protected against by doing it this way?

Or is this just an artifact of the M1 Chip in some way and not something added after the fact?

I cannot fathom how they haven't made an official Android Clubhouse app. Is the Android base so disgusting, or what?

It might even be understandable if you are an underdog while bootstrapping while not having enough resources, but Clubhouse should have more than enough resource to make a simplified wannabe Discord app on Android.

Any semi-competent mobile dev should be able to do it.

Reading now other's comments makes kind of sense, Clubhouse is positioning itself as an elitist app, so of course they are trying to build exclusivity.

Good luck to them, but I personally go out of my way to not use apps or services like that.
I know this might come as a shocker, but some people don't like the Apple "Stockholm syndrome" ecosystem.

I prefer my Android phone over an iPhone, even though I have and use an iPad, and I still prefer my Windows PC over a Mac for developing, even though I have a Mac ( I only use it for signing apps for iOS).

Looks like having a different taste and preferring a choice is unpopular in this decade.

It's baffling and yet it's not. Most people don't remember their childhoods very vividly, and high school is still in the cusp of childhood, especially these days.

I grew up in a school system where families had the ability to switch schools.

It did not solve any of the problems you mention. In fact, it introduced a new set of problems where some number of students (and parents) at every school would conclude that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence no matter what. Most of the students who switched schools struggled to make friends or were frustrated that the switch didn’t automatically solve their social problems.

In retrospect, I realize I learned a lot about social maturity by staying one place with a semi-random group of people that I had to learn how to work with.

The whole game was overly ambitious all along. I think they were thinking SkyRim and Witcher when the technology was only up to par with Mine-Craft graphics if that.

So how does Monero solve the scaling problem?

>So LN will become centralized.

Route finding in adverserial environments lead to a more hierarchical as opposed to a mesh-like network structure, true. But it is still decentralized because if all else fails you can create your own route.
That applies to literally all code. So if it's not about the stakes, only experts are ever allowed to deploy code of any kind that they've written themselves.
Speaking of compassion for yourself, I also often feel lonely and depressed. Somebody once suggested that I read "Radical Acceptance", a book by Tara Brach. I've only managed to read part of it before putting it down. I couldn't really agree with some of the arguments in the book (e.g. people in the West having more self-acceptance problems due to biblical story of the original sin). YMMV.
From the second paragraph of TFA:

“Once an hour, infected Macs check a control server to see if there are any new commands the malware should run or binaries to execute.”
It's not - I'm not trying to pretend this is the only problem or the only solution. It's just one facet of a wider problem (as is winterizing). Anyone who tells you there's only one problem here is either being naive, or hand-wavy (eg, the problem is investment. I do believe that stands, but it's terribly hand-wavy).

Texas' overall pipeline, for gas at least, is a pretty straight connection of supplier to consumer - which is the equivalence I'm drawing to JIT logistics. Any fluctuation at the supply (which is most the winterization issues) is a direct risk to the consumer.

Buffers in the distribution reduce risk to the consumer. Winterization reduces risk at supplier. Neither exists in a vacuum, they both contribute to the overall resilience of the system.

The Two Hours That Nearly Destroyed Texas’s Electric Grid
What really confused me when I visited Munich is that those two S-bahn lines pass through the centre in opposite directions on their way to the airport.

The airport is northeast of the city. All of the S-bahn lines pass through the centre of the city in a roughly east-west direction, and all the central stations have two S-bahn platforms- one for trains going west, one for trains going east.

If you want to take the S-bahn to the airport from the central station, you either take the S8 going east (towards Karlsplatz) or the S1 going west (towards Hackerbruecke).
