In order list of threads from browsing /pol/ for people who want to know how 'diverse' it is without visiting:

- Anti-vax

- Anti-gay parents

- Goose

- Ben Shapiro praise thread with a dash of anti-semitism and a whole lot of "i hope all ni**rs die"

- Praising George Floyd mural vandalism

- Anti-transgender

- Praising white nationalism/white ethnostate

- Praising 'national rape day'

- Anti-Islam

- Anti-race mixing

- Illuminati

- Celebrating police shooting blacks

- British royals news

- Anti-mask, anti-Biden

- Silver

- Anti-liberal white women as betrayers of the white race

Keep in mind I just am reading the threads in order. This is not diverse at all. Maybe 'diverse' in the sense that these white supremacists are posting from across North America and Europe. This is almost all far right white supremacist and misogynist talking points (strong overlap between the 2), almost surely disproportionately posted by young white men.

Websites half working should send alarm bells ringing that it’s an MTU problem. The reason google.com works is because they only support an MTU of 1280.
I would add that it’s almost all stimuli. One could only wish that pain worked this way (unfortunately, no matter how many body parts hurt, it doesn’t mean only the one that hurts the worst is the only one that appears to hurt).
I was listening to a podcast with Jason Sudeikis and he said that they specifically brought it up several times because they knew that later in the same episode they would be doing a riff on the Allen Iverson "we talking about practice" speech.
> The most important bug is that the software doesn't solve the problem that you have.

And we should add:

Unless we can't do so without introducing any additional problems, while solving that problem in a manner that truly solves it; as opposed to making it appear solved.

We really are often best off, with the problem, if the cure is worse than the disease.

When I was younger, we had a saying:

To err is human, but it takes a computer to really fuck things up.
There's never been a better time to be the 3rd party!

WinSmith is hiring roles in our new "cashless society" division. We're looking for experienced devs, product managers, QA engineers, torturers, translators, and internal HR roles, and we already know where they are. Don't worry about sending us your resume- we already have them.
That was my first thought as well but wouldn't that same logic apply to other countries as well? If not, why is this intentional suppression of COVID cases happening in India and not other countries like the United States and United Kingdom? At what point does the comparison of COVID cases between countries become meaningless as a result of countries manipulating the data they report?
This is really interesting to me. I do a lot of mapping of natural surface single track trails (for hiking and mountain biking) along the way be sure to properly name things, add intersection markers, and create relations (routes and superroutes) to document the systems.

The biggest downside thus far is a good way of displaying the data. mtb.waymarkedtrails.org gets close, but I'd really like something that displays relations in the specified color, has sane intersection markers, etc.

I feel like there should be something out there which effectively lets me design a style sheet and then apply it to a map which I embed somewhere (maybe even in an app).

This... feels like it? Or if not this, can any of you recommend another system?

Ideally I'd love something I can self-host. I tried getting a copy of waymarkedtrails going and then modifying that, but it's a bit too specialized and I kept running into quirks getting the toolchain set up.

EDIT: Looks like this might not include the highway=path data that I need, much relations. Alas.
People buying cars for $20,000 are generally not people who can invest twice upfront for lower maintenance costs over the next ten years. Being poor (relatively speaking) is expensive, especially when you are financing.
In Perl, the english operators for and/or/etc have lower precedence than the symbolic ones.
Tesla wants $100 to reserve a car, so I'm sure that's why the value was picked. If their buyer backs out and the model is popular, they can always get full price on the car as configured anyway.
but still, one of the big reasons for the weakness of the CDU is because of the "Maskenaffäre" (read: corruption), so in a way this IS a public intervention because of corruption. We might see how the Greens handle government but in regard to corruption they appear to be a better choice than CDU/CSU. btw I know that the SPD is an easy target (and they certainly are not completely innocent regarding wirecard) but still Scholz and his people are fighting for more openness regarding income of politicians (starting at 1 Euro income), so there are still rays of hope in Germany.
Much fun[1] can be had because RSA keys are integers. If your key would be encoded with a zero most significant byte, some implementations are fine if that byte is omited, and some will give a nonsensical error instead.

[1] Not actually fun, but I got a patch in OpenSSL, so I guess that's neat.
I remember before google using altavista. And before the web, searching usenet news with WAIS.
Just because you can doesn't mean you should. DC high current charging is pretty rough on the expected lifetime of that pack.
And even if it was, the idioms would still be different. Even if yaml is a superset of JSON, you wouldn't apply JSON pattern (eg. Using a "_comment" key for comments) to yaml. And similarly, many of the JavaScript design pattern won't apply to typescript because it has language features instead of conventions.
Indeed. These EVs will filter down to the used market over time, satiating demand from those not of means to afford a new car.

It's ideal really; those who can buy new eat the depreciation, while those who can't afford new end up with a vehicle that will be able to go hundreds of thousands of miles before end of service life (perhaps with some cosmetic blemishes, but not much more of concern considering powertrain longevity). Not everyone needs a new car, many simply need a reliable car.
Yeah, I guess I shouldn't say S3 is the cheapest option there, I was thinking 'In AWS' but Backblaze is cheaper.
Reality is more nuanced.

Main problem the Palestinians have is that they are in conflict with Israel. State of Israel is treated very generously by US public, journalists and politicians. Google is US based company, ruled by US citizens, regulated by US politicians - that constitutes a bias.

You have no data about Hamas, you're speculating, but even assuming your accusation - Hamas is not a comix bad/good thing. Some parts of them I would consider bad by my standards. But they are a part of struggle for regaining land, that in minds of Palestinians is rightfully theirs and was taken from them by force. Zionist movements in the early XX century were operating with a similar attitude and some even used terrorism as a method.

This is a heavy loaded subject. People have heavy opinions about it.
Even if that repo had some data about Hamas I think it would be better if operator of the platform did not intervene and allow it to exist as part of discussion.
As a non-Tesla fan, I think the S has very nice lines. The X and 3 are ugly. As you say, they basically look like the same car, and yet are misproportioned in various ways. My theory is they spent a lot of designer time carefully iterating and refining the S, then fired all the designers. Then for X and 3, simply distorted the S design to wrap around a different car and called it good.

The car itself doesn't care about the battery chemistry at all - it's actually not even a different chemistry, only a different way to build them -, it's always a nominal voltage of 12V and a charge voltage of about 14V. You can put in whatever battery you want, in theory.

Practically, your choice will be influenced by:

- price (lead-acid are cheaper)

- usage frequency (AGM have lower self discharge rates and can stand up for a year or more without charging, while a lead-acid will grow sulfate crystals in a matter of months)

- peak current capacity and temperature range (again, AGM are better, and you must use a battery that can supply the crank with enough amps... and note that the crank will need more power in colder climates)

- capacity (obviously... depending on options like a beefy sound system, service lights, antitheft systems or seat heaters, you need higher capacity)
Calling Autopilot a toy seems quite exaggerated to me.

I use Autopilot for ~80% of the miles I drive and I love it. I might think the same about Subaru or Cadillac or whatever if I had those, I'm not sure. But none of them are "toys".
Gah where to start... anything capturing flow (it won't work, you are going to have to deal with massive volume with really little head), vertically oscillating elements anchored to the seabottom driving pistons, impellers driven by waves trying to enter constricted passages, horizontal device driven by waves running up the tidal grounds, under water turbines of all sorts, shapes and sizes, scissor arrangements (with or without floats attached to the far end).

You can broadly group all tidal devices into several simple groupings and for each of those there were a number of initial prototypes and all of those did not make it past the POC or initial deployment. Anything the future is likely to come up with will be variations on those themes. That won't stop people from trying and it won't stop future subsidy grabs because this all falls under the 'wouldn't it be nice if it worked' heading. Yes, it would be very nice. But no, it doesn't work and if you're not going to come up with something radically new you are better off reading the literature on what exactly made it not work the first time.

Those who don't know history...

Here is a very nice example:

https://teamwork.nl/category/teamwork-technology/

I'm sure they pocketed a ton of subsidy by now.

In the same vane (pun intended): rooftop windmills, vertical axis turbines, kites, sound to energy conversion and on and on.
> Not surprised he lasted so long at Google.

Is it hard to 'last' at google? I have never gotten that impression.
I should preface this with: I read the question as you want something on-premises/in a colo. If you're talking hosted S3 by someone other than Amazon that's a different story.

It probably depends on if you are tied at the hip to other AWS services. If you are, then you're kind of stuck. The ingress/egress traffic will kill you doing anything with that data anywhere else.

If you aren't, the major players for on-prem S3 (assuming you want to continue access the data that way) would be (in no specific order):

Cloudian

Scality

NetApp Storagegrid

Hitachi Vantara HCP

Dell/EMC ECS

There are plusses and minuses to all of them. At that capacity I would honestly avoid a roll-your-own unless you're on a shoestring budget. Any of the above will be cheaper than Amazon.
He wouldn't have had advance knowledge.
> Over the last year it's be come more virulent and more deadly.

Evolution is a somewhat random process at its heart, but I stand by what I said as the likely outcome, because that's the path new diseases normally take. It's early days yet.

> We have no idea how well the vaccines are going to work

I think we have a petty good idea by now actually. A bigger question is how much will it be hampered by people afraid or unwilling to be vaccinated? I have never in my life seen such widespread and illogical fear of vaccines.

We may have to just accept that there will be an ongoing toll in the unvaccinated population that keeps the virus circulating in quantity and keeps the hospitals busy. Until sufficiently many develop natural antibodies through infection.

> We have a situation right now where a country(india) with 100 million people vaccinated is getting 350,000 cases a day, and it's doubling every 10 days. That's a scenario where the evolution around the protection a vaccine offers becomes a very real and distinct possibility.

Yes, that's a tail risk that's real and terrifying. I think the risk is small given such a mutation would possibly render the virus much less virulent. The vaccines tend to target the spike protein, without which it can't even infect humans. But nature finds a way. We can and will also adapt the vaccines in that case though. The money, motivation, and technical expertise are all there. But nobody knows how likely a risk that is.

Also strict border controls with supervised hotel quarantine. The formula is:

1. Implement border controls so few/no cases get in
2. If you already have an outbreak, do a lockdown (possibly targeted to a city or province)
3. Once you have few cases, aggressively test/trace. This is not possible with lots of cases.

If you have an open border though, this won't work, because you're going to import lots of cases, and those people, by the nature of being travelers, are going to be staying in hotels, eating in restaurants, taking public transit, exposing lots of people. They then leave the country and so are hard to contact trace.

If you look at the countries that have the fewest per capita deaths, they essentially universally implemented early border controls with supervised quarantine for arrivals. Everyone talks about SK, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Australia, and New Zealand, but there are lower income countries that succeeded with this too like Vietnam. Rwanda has also done very well with a requirement that arrivals test on arrival and undergo supervised quarantine for 24 hours while waiting for test results.
Sorry I misunderstood. Of all the recently released cars the Mercedes EQS is the only one that is obviously doing what you complain about.
Except that they are not trying something new. They are trying something old. Again. And again.
I mean, if you say so. Said project has been around for 25+ years, survived a dozen acquisitions, is actively developed by 1000s of developers all over the globe, and has revenues in the $100s of millions. So clearly they are doing something right.

Personally, I loved never fucking around with IDEs.
Remember when Parlor was eradicated from the internet by big tech because they couldn’t stop this movement either?

Or was that just a play to get rid of some competition?
I saw Paul S (who makes the Teensy) posted recently that he’s having trouble sourcing some components.

I’m projecting that a hobby project I make is going to be delayed by not being able to get the LDO I worked into the design. I’m contemplating switching out the component for something a little more common. (AP2112 for an LM1117 for anyone who’s interested)
ArsTechnica has retracted the story about McDonald's Icecream
Gas is down to $3 and electric $12/kWh, with the state now charging electric vehicles higher registration fees yearly to offset the gas tax savings. There's likely small savings every year, but we're talking almost $20K price difference, maybe $12K with federal (and no state) rebate, you aren't going to be breaking even.

Plus fun fact: My insurance would go up a lot with a Model 3 from my current vehicle, 25% more a month. Why? I have no idea, but I'm guessing higher write-off or repair costs.
I have hotkeys and chrome/firefox extensions to make it very fast to start and navigate a Google search. I don't have to remember all the different docs; I can use the same key-based workflow for all my searches.

Over time I've gotten a feel for what sites have better answers for different questions. E.g. StackOverflow is great for explicit syntax questions because the answer is targeted to the question, unlike documentation which is trying to explain the whole syntax.
There is another one called Boom. I am aware it is about sonic boom but still.
It's inertia.

Tbh I subscribe to like 200+ youtube channels. Probably like 5 of them talk about having their regular video content on another platform. I don't watch twitch streams.

If more of the creators I cared about uploaded their videos to other platforms, I would switch.

Be the change you would like to see in the world.

/pol is awesome what are you talking about

it has nothing to do with race, calling George Floyd an overdosed junkie is just stating the facts.
No-ad-spend companies are hard to come up with, some possibilities are everyday necessities with very few competitors like salt (but I think they advertise a little), or utility monopolies (I don't think my local water company or garbage collection company advertises, but I haven't checked. Maybe they advertise to the government offices that select the companies to use?). Pre-internet days, it would be easier to be sure some businesses don't advertise (neighborhood convenience stores or laundromats, for example, that get enough foot traffic to not bother advertising), but with the ease of throwing up a website nowadays (which should count as advertising), this can no longer be assumed.

Some missing web APIs from mobile Safari that I'd like to get:

Media Source Extensions (MSE) [It's available on ipadOS but not iOS, though those device have comparable/same capabilities]

Fullscreen API [Just taking the browser to minimal-ui would be enough for me (like it does when you scroll down) - is available on ipadOS]

Battery status [Just being able to know that power-saving was on would help, we don't need accuracy, there are a lot of features that get disabled in Safari when it's in that mode]

Permissions API [Knowing that the user has already blocked or allowed some restricted APIs so you aren't asking for them again and again]

Network Information API/Data saver [Be able to change data usage dependent on network connection]

Full Web Audio support [Safari offers no control over audio destinations, as soon as you open the microphone on iOS it will default to only outputting audio through the earpiece and not the speakers so WebRTC calls have horrible audio]

Full WebGL support

Web NFC/Web Bluetooth - I've got loads of ideas for using them in museum installations but iOS marketshare in my area means I won't even bother doing it just for Android.

Then we have various things missing from PWAs:

Cache, cookies, storage aren't shared so when a user installs a PWA he needs to re-authenticate.

PWAs can't register protocols or domains to move traffic from Safari/other apps to them (e.g. Want to open this with XYZ?), they also can't be targets in Share dialogs etc.

Some of these have been available in the Experimental options for Safari on iOS/ipadOS from time to time. Some have even been available in one or two betas before being removed again (MSE was available on iOS for one beta nearly 2 years ago).
A total market miss for you, maybe, but it is a total market hit for the actual market as demonstrated in sales figures.
If anything the lifetime cost of electric deters me. Usually they come with 10 year warranties for the power side of the car, but I kept my last car for 20 years. If I buy electric I assume I essentially need to buy a new car or pay for an expensive overhaul after a decade. So the math is more along the lines of 20k for a gas car that will last for 20 years, or 40k for an electric car that will probably last 10 years. Yes, you save some on energy but probably won't offset total cost difference.

If Apple can get away with decent performance at 16G why would they ship more in the first generation? A few people won't upgrade yet because they need more memory, but a lot of people will upgrade again when they release the 32G models in a year or two.
I am still sticking with my previous guess...

"I am guessing after hitting the tree the doors got jammed, so the driver got in the back seat to try to force open the back door or trunk access. They burned alive."*

This explains why front passenger was occupied (airbag and no hands to brace for impact - this person was probably was still in stock), the driver braced using steering and got in back seat to open doors, but the smoke/fire killed them both soon.

Flagstaff makes an effort to enforce their lighting ordinances, Prescott makes no effort whatsoever.

I think the problem is that all the people who knew why the lighting ordinances were passed retired. Because Prescott doesn’t have Lowell Observatory in the city limits the reasons behind the ordinances were forgotten.

Blue-white outdoor lighting should be prosecuted as a public nuisance.

No, but Cellebrite does because their credibility is what sells their products to law enforcement. It wouldn't kill all their sales, but enough to be painful.
Yeah. I literally just pulled the trigger and am waiting on delivery of a Model Y. The other vendors are at least playing in the same ballpark now. This car, and the Ford Mach-E (I refuse to call a 4-door crossover a "mustang") are both... very reasonable and justifiable purchases. Same price range. Similar (or at least close to) travel range. Similar performance.

But they don't have a supercharger network. They won't have anything like Tesla's autopilot over the life of these units. The software glitz Tesla's app integration brings to the table isn't there, even if the fit and finish is probably better.

It's great to see the traditional automakers getting close finally (almost a DECADE after the Model S shipped!), but... they aren't there yet. Unless you're in love with something very specific about these particular cars, Tesla remains the clear default choice.
If push notifications are that important for your app, take the short amount of time needed to make it a "native" app. There's enough variety in frameworks that should make it stupidly simple to transform a web-app into a "native" app, without relying on adding yet another attention-invasive feature into the browser.
