I was referring to the total number of items in the meal. I rarely eat buttered toast, and fried hash browns are pretty heavy (though tasty, to be sure!). I also haven't drunk whole milk since I was 2, so all together this would be quite a meal for me. Each of these items is no problem to eat in 2 minutes, but when you stack them all together it ceases to be a joy to eat (at least for me). I could do it once, but if this is supposed to be an every day affair as part of a pill regimen, I wouldn't love it.
True.

I agree it's impressive myself. Though they probably mean C or A Class. The E class is larger and quite a lot more expensive than a Tesla 3.
> The industry has been setting up informal working groups to pool knowledge of mitigations, communicate when our platforms are being leveraged against one another, and cumulatively wasting thousands of hours of engineering time implementing measures to deal with this abuse, and responding as attackers find new ways to circumvent them.

Does anyone know how to get in contact with these informal working groups?
Uber gave up in December 2020 and sold off their technology to Aurora.

Waymo is now offering rides in Phoenix AZ with no "safety driver".[1] "Waymo One is our fully public, fully autonomous ride hailing service. Now anyone can take fully autonomous rides anytime they're in Metro Phoenix. Just download the app and ride right away."[1]

Waymo also now has significant non-Alphabet investors, having raised US $2 billion in 2020.

No pricing yet, so this is still a demo.

Your comment and the comment you're replying to gave two very different definitions of "cancel". And yet you're surprised that people find it ambiguous?
One of the three's PINs are automatically set, just as the date string from when you froze your credit. Legitimately something like 20191218. You could relatively easily guess them.

One of the three removed the freeze by me just calling and asking, never providing a PIN.

One of the three was alright. I set the PIN to something of my choosing. I had to call, provide all my info and then the PIN to remove it.

The state of credit freezing across the three big companies is an absolute joke.

+1 exactly what I was wondering. And if it is, what’s stopping a company from defining the culture as, “It’s ok if you want to talk about this at work, and it’s also ok if you don’t want to.”
To clarify: I don't think proof of stake is perfect.

I think the original pie in the sky dream, as hinted at in the Bitcoin white paper, was for decentralization through anyone (all the way to students in their dorms) being able to participate in consensus.

I don't think proof of stake gets things all the way there, but I think it does get closer to a linear ROI curve, compared to how proof of work is right now.
Another basic example: imagine working at Basecamp and being like "Can we sponsor Django Girls?" (whatever the Rails equivalent is) Like maybe you want to have a more diverse team and this is one way of trying to recruit for it.

Without these "oh politics is sin" things, the bosses saying no might require them to justify it. Instead they can now weasel their way out of this kind of stuff, and basically shield themselves from criticism on this front, even if people internally might want to change [0]

Lots of conservative ideology is around this, trying to turn some subjective defense of beliefs into like... some objective rules about not doing X/Y/Z (basically maintaining the status quo). I'm not saying the decision makers are conservative, but that's what the result is going to be here.

(tbh I think there are good reasons to minimize discussions about current events into places where people aren't forced to be exposed to them at work. I know I don't want to, just cuz I'm already exposed to it a lot. But there's a difference between banning politics talk and just asking people to keep it in certain areas IMO)

[0] https://basecamp.com/about/team they don't have the engineering/non-engineering split here, but 50-odd people and they have 3 Dans + 3 Jasons.

From what I have been reading, it’s saved the lives of everybody who it’s been given to so far but I haven’t seen much coverage of it outside of the stock reports.

Just struck me as odd that it’s bogged down in more testing when it seems to have a near perfect record. Blows my mind that India and Brazil aren’t begging for it considering the scope of their current situations.

After following it for the last year, suddenly seeing the Pfizer option out of nowhere just struck me as odd.
> I'm surprised you're writing "really bright"

Most people are not equally bright in all departments :)

Yes, they're bright guys, I stand by that and they do awesome work of what they do. When left unchecked, they just focus exclusively on what they love and think makes the most sense. This may not always fully align with the overall company goals customer wise. And obviously you're getting only _my_ viewpoint of this, not theirs.

They do remind me of myself more than 15 years ago, telling my dad about Linux From Scratch and Gentoo and how that's the only way to be. He was obviously right when he said that no, they don't have the time for that at their place of work and I declared him insane (in my head) because obviously, that was _the only_ way :) It definitely made me learn a lot of stuff, so for myself at the time it was the right thing.

> in that you're helping others, sometimes the whole company?

I try I guess. Sometimes it's really hard, because they don't want to be helped and/or actively seek to introduce policies that are detrimental to the company overall (not talking about the "bright guys" above in this case, e.g. the rollout plan I mentioned was the business people, not us tech guys). And again, my viewpoint only that you are getting here.

I don’t think that promoting exercise as a component of healthy living makes a statement on body image. People who exercise have all types of bodies, all of which are acceptable.

It is paternalistic to “force” people to go to the gym to receive this compensation for their work. But there’s also plenty of research showing positive benefits of exercise on overall well-being for it to make sense for businesses to incentivize it from a worker performance perspective without body image entering into the discussion.

Yeah, it is pretty nuts how sick kids get in daycare, although our pediatrician says it is training their immune system. She said that for kids not in daycare, the same thing happens once they hit kindergarten.

First few months of daycare, constant colds. Then COVID hit and we took the kids out of daycare, no colds for months. Back at daycare, colds started right away.

It has mostly stopped for my five year old. She gets a normal amount of colds now (a few per year), but our two year old is still a constant cold machine.
It’s mind boggling to me that an adult human being (who was once 14!) can hold such a ridiculous point of view. You must have simply forgotten what it was like...

The behavior of this young child warrants (at most!) a sit down with an authority figure to discuss the problematic elements. If this wasn’t her first lapse of judgment, maybe hand down a temporary suspension from the team or something similar.

The idea that this fiasco is somehow helping this kid is... I mean... come on now.

What is happening to us? I’m not even old and I feel like that old man yelling at people to get off my lawn.
Well, if it inhibits, it needs to be renewed at the same rate it is consumed to maintain the inhibition. Thus a saturation dose(freezes ALL that protease inhibition needs to be administered.) The body will degrade/metabolise/excrete this protease = an effective half life.
The body's adaptive immune system will also increase to block various aspects of the ways and means the virus uses to reproduce = might block the protease or might stop it being made. In any event this will be a good adjunct to a vaccine to freeze the virus in t's tracks until it can be killed.
I keep reading about a shortage of Uber and Lyft drivers in California. I think this is correct because I was a driver and they've been trying hard to get me back. None of this would happen with FSD.
1. You start a 'democratic' company
2. You make a controversial decision or series of decisions
3. You lose 'voted out'
4. Turns out your controversial decision would've been [firing a few employees/getting acquired/insert unpopular thing here] to keep the company afloat, and everything goes belly up

It's the same reason unions only work in the biggest, most established companies. Everything slows to a crawl otherwise.
Next codec is likely to be AV1. How does it fare in these situations ?

There’s a lot of things that aren’t political per-se you shouldn’t share with the broader group.

For instance, maybe my family has a history of killing wild animals for food. I wouldn’t share our kill shots with my company the same way I would with friends that are interested in hunting. Because I know it’s something a good chunk of people don’t want to see and it’s unnecessary to share.

Now imagine I had a few friends in the office who too supported this. And we went out of our way to not only share pictures of these killings (which are all legal) but started to intimidate people that didn’t like to see them.

And then we go a step further and plan a trip to Africa to hunt lions - all legal and on the up and up. And we share these relentlessly. And we don’t stop there. We post Big-5 trophies and endless shots of venison being butchered.

We also begin to loudly advocate NRA membership for colleagues and use company resources to recruit social events where we all go shooting together. We go further and decide we want THE COMPANY to support our gun rights. We walk out and protest our CEO who “doesn’t have the balls” to take a measly pheasant.

Who wants this?

The point is to explicitly not politicize these conversations and instead talk and relate on a human-to-human level
Money isn't a natural phenomenon. You say it's unnatural for a central bank or government to intervene, but it's their currency. Its existence is inherently political, and serves an interest or policy goal. Be it capital accumulation to boomers or whatever else. They can also pick losers, if they really wanted. Look at Lehman Brothers.

The dollar, and its associated monetary policy, isn't something that has been perverted by evil external forces. I'm arguing the 'status quo' because thats how it was intentionally designed and thats how it intentionally works. Not wasting my time describing some fanciful alternative perfect system

They're useful. How else would you get on a plane with only a suitcase, land the equivalent of a Europe away, then buy a house from an ecosystem of people that you have never dealt with before? And not overpay for the privilege? For the next 30 years?
So I don't get this. You bash the Model 3 for build quality but you support BMW which is notorious for having horrible reliability.

I'd pick the car with just okay paint and maybe some not-so-perfect gaps over a car that I know is going to cost me thousands in maintenance.
I'd argue that when I used to pick my phone up, I'd place my thumb on the touch ID location as I was raising the phone to my face and it would unlock quicker than face ID.

I don't have a problem with either options, but I do think touch ID was slightly faster.
I'd be really curious to know how San Francisco rental prices are diverging between newer (not rent controlled) buildings and older (rent controlled) buildings. There is historically not as much turnover in the rent controlled buildings, and people pay a premium price at the time of move in because they get protection from rent increases. I would guess that rent controlled unit prices did not slip that much because people realize that San Francisco will be a great place to live at some point in the future. These rental surveys are heavily biased towards larger, newer apartment buildings.
Is there anything like this for MySQL?
Great to learn today that the model 3 is not a premium car. My whole life has been a lie. How do I refine my tastes to appreciate premium cars like the bmw like you? I never had a mentor who could teach me the finer aspects of premium taste.

What I don't understand is what the theoretical endgame would have been here?

Putting the circumstance aside that their submissions are effectively indistinguishable from malicious content (and should be treated as such anyway), if you stay in their line of "it's just research", then getting banned is just another possible outcome that should have been expected as a possibility from the beginning, no?

What they are doing now is basically saying "Yeah we know we did this to see whether actors like us get blocked, but you see, it's US, we should clearly get different treatment".
This is very sad statement. Unfortunately, money matter more than human society.
Well, I'm a forensics researcher, so thank you.

If you'd like to know about the current issues around mobile device acquisition, you can check this out (https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9116458) which contains the last paper I wrote on the latest issues on iOS and Android acquisitions.

Although I'd love to blame the big bad Cellebrite and the big bad police departments for junk science, computer forensics is quick to dismiss scientifically unsound items so I would expect a response from Cellebrite soon.
"JavaScript relies heavily on callback functions: Instead of a function giving us a result immediately, we give it another function that tells it what to do next. Many other languages use them as well, but JavaScript is often the first place that programmers with data science backgrounds encounter them."

That sentence from the book clarifies a lot for me. It is Javascript for Data Science People. Taken in that context this is an excellent book written with empathy for the Data Science user who is usually making uneasy excursions which they hope and pray is only temporary into Javascript and running back to Python the first time they encounter a Promise or a Callback.
Just because sedans are not the biggest market anymore doesn't mean competition is over or that there is not still a gigantic amount of money in it.

Tesla is of course also expecting to sell more CUV and Pickups in the future and we have seen the sales growth of the Model Y.

Seriously making the argument that being the globally highest selling car in a well known very well specified category with their first ever turley mass produced car after just a few years of production is not an achievement is just insane argument.
Probably not a good idea to use for purposes other than cryptomining, as this is very a unique board, and if manufacturer decides to stop making it, you are in big trouble. And you need different CPU, or more memory than this motherboard can support, you are out of luck.

A much safer way is to get a regular motherboard and plug in some RAID cards here. For example Backblaze below connects 80 hard drives to a single motherboard.

I'm not sure how a Model 3 or a BMW 3 Series can be compared to a Mercedes E Class. The comparable cars there seem to be the Tesla Model S and the BMW 5 Series. The Mercedes equivalent of a BMW 3 Series or a Tesla Model 3 is the C Class.

> And we went out of our way to not only share pictures of these killings (which are all legal) but started to intimidate people that didn’t like to see them.

And your managements only way of reacting to that is banning all potentially political talk? Really? My boss would go "go make a #hunting channel and keep it there". And I presume if I tried to get him into gun rights activism the response would be "no, stop pestering us about it", repeated more firmly and with consequences if I kept it up.
>Is small talk about the advocacy work you did over the weekend worse than my small talk about building drones over the weekend?

I think you're way more likely to find coworkers that get mad or upset over the advocacy work you did over the weekend than you are to find coworkers mad about you building a drone.

One of these topics seems to have a much higher chance of negatively affecting either you or your coworker in the workplace.

If you're enjoying some watercooler conversation with a coworker, would you prefer them chatting about the drone they built or the door-to-door-campaigning they did for <candidate you despise> 2024, or the protest they were at against <your preferred candidate>?

Even if you're fine discussing advocacy work for a cause you disagree with (like any adult should be), there's also a chance you're going to alienate or upset your coworker by not agreeing or being on "their side".

Talking about building drones doesn't have the high-stakes social stigmas that can have lasting, chilling effects in the workplace that a lot of tangentially-political topics do.
DDT dump site off L.A. coast much bigger than scientists expected
Not unable to work; unwelcome at work.

I mentioned it elsewhere, but saying “my husband and I went to [insert benign weekend activity here]” is now a potentially political conversation because there are people in modern, 2021 workplaces who thing that being gay at all is a “political” issue.

So again - not that I can’t work, but I’m unwelcome at work. Even if the company would never enforce the policy that way: they could, and I have to worry about it. And not too long ago, companies did enforce it that way.

It definitely looks like a typo. But the Audi A6 is also an equivalent to the BMW 5 Series or Mercedes E Class. The A5 seems like a better comparison to the Model 3.

I wonder if the numbers are also wrong? Did they actually compare E Class and A6 sales instead of C Class and A5 sales?

Are 4 Series included in with 3 Series numbers? What about M cars?
Do the studies offer explanations as to why red states have higher infection rates than blue states despite being less densly populated?

With just a few examples in blue states where the virus took hold early on in dense urban areas in blue states, i can't think of any explanation except that red states were much less vigilant with lockdowns.
I personally enjoy the Javadocs that tell me nothing about how to use the damn thing. Spending hours poring over it, with no examples, just a generated Javaoc version of the static types my IDE would have told me, and through much trial and error, I eventually figure out that I need -

new Doer(UnrelatedFactory.create("foo", new WTFBar(), 5, null, null), RandomEnumFromADifferentPackage.MEANINGLESS_VALUE, true).do()

But I'm not really convinced such documents are helpful. I mean, technically they're better than nothing (as in, literally better than nothing), but the difference between nothing and those docs is so small it approaches nothing ('as the worthlessness of the documentation approaches infinity the value of reading them approaches nothing', as it were)

Like you say, it was possible at the time the decision was "made"; we're talking about duplicating NSCA Mosaic circa 1993, not Chrome.

And in any case, it wasn't necessary to write a web browser from scratch. What was necessary was to support a "normal" side environment to run POSIX, gcc/g++, etc. This would have been a fair bit of effort, but if it had been done (a nice first stop would be to have avoided gratuitous incompatibilities, like "ken c"), the OS could have supported programs not written at the Labs (and a tiny number of other places) and been an actual daily driver.

I write this out of frustration but with a lot of positive feelings about Plan 9; I would have loved to see it thrive. The gratuitous incompatibility made it almost immediately a museum piece, as did the fact that many of the intriguing-for-1990 research decisions made for it went obsolete shortly after with the rise of cheap, powerful PC hardware.
If you haven’t unlocked your phone by the time you’re looking at it you’re doing it slower than I am. Typically my phone is unlocked before I’ve even fully pulled it out of my pocket. The muscle memory for thumb (or finger placement if it’s on the back) is a pretty low barrier to usability, and can be learned quickly.

Can you unlock your phone without moving it in front of your face? I can, if it’s sitting across my desk I can unlock it without picking it up or moving my head towards it. I do this regularly.

Perhaps you’ve forgotten how many usability compromises you’ve made in using Face ID, but I guarantee it’s slower.
