Offering a bounty to locate a person of interest in a crime is not "vigilante justice." The police frequently employ the very same strategy.

Offering a bounty is not a call to attack or harass the person in question; if you want to make that claim, you need more evidence to substantiate it. Right now there's no evidence the CEO wanted anything more than to have this person identified.
More than half of those are chickens. So it says more about artificial selection.
Looking at the issues of GraalJS, it seems to me rather that it is a few nodejs devs who doesn’t seem to know what is a worthwhile benchmark, sometimes laughably so. It is well within the same performance range, faster at some tasks, slower at others.
How about the Honda with an 8" diameter tailpipe that sounds like it's behind a poorly-tuned, asthmatic turbine?
Slack does it, and I had it happen to me once. It was unexpected and added extra frustration when I was already stressed.
Maybe it is more productive to just do the opposite. When vulnerabilities are found investigate the committer(s) for possible links, and quality of previous work
The F150 is only really sold in the US/Canada market, at least as a passenger car. You might be able to import one as a commercial vehicle in Europe but I've certainly never seen one.
Personally I'm for an opposite approach - content that I produce is already a free gift to the world, so it's on a user to find a way and means to consume it. Should be a bit of a challenge, really.
I was very interested up until I saw the pricing. $70 a month is way too much.

A big issue here is just how easy flutter is, I'd rather invest 20 hours once to build it using Dart, then to pay $800 a year.

Where do you get the tank from? They ship pressured tanks to you from eBay with the postal system? Interested but it seems complicated so I’d like to know the details.
Industrial designers may have more influence on the public, press, and execs because their work is immediately visible, but top engineers have huge influence on later engineers. I know more about Seymour Cray, Burton Smith, Danny Hillis, etc. than I do about Dieter Rams and Hartmut Esslinger.

That's a strong statement. Heavier vehicles do better in snow because they fit in better. Trucks with more ground clearance can get up and over things that smaller trucks can't. If we're just talking about rock crawling, sure. If we're talking about practical use cases and messy conditions, I'll keep torque and weight on my side.
Because you're being disengenuous. Pretty simple.

My understanding is that Square is solely a payment collector, you can't send funds out of Square to other accounts like you can with Stripe. If Twitter had went with Square then I think every Spaces creator would have to set up their own Square account in order to receive payments.
neat. would be even neater if it used state to provide a prior on likely intents. (ie. in its most simple form, if you know the light is on, "turn on the light" has a prior of 0)
F-150 isn't sold in the european market, and neither are any other American flat-top high front trucks precisely because they are too deadly to pedestrians.

As others have noted, no, it is not. But that doesn't boggle my mind...

What boggles my mind is that the seed machine and the intervening network and the firewall did not appear to have "scream loudly then shutdown when this threshold is exceeded" mitigations in place.

They were wise enough to have a single connection from the seed host to the seed requester. They were wise enough to limit the requester to one request every 15 minutes.

They only discovered that threshold was being exceeded when they logged in to that machine.

The firewall itself should have had detection and response capabilities to notice when calls were being made faster than that, and it should have had a third, dedicated warning connection to alert humans to the fact. The seed host should have had detection and response capabilities.

And, given the value of the asset, it would have been entirely reasonable to have a transparent bit of network gear doing the same, like a custom switch invisible to the request host.

Since the article didn't mention any of these things, and since it said that the high request rate was detected only by humans on the box, I'm going to assume they didn't have these, for reasons mysterious.

EDIT: Come to think of it, since that machine was being used to burn CDs, there should also have been strict limits with appropriate detection mitigations on what that machine could do outbound.

Asterisk = read the fine print... That to me is super deceptive. Tell me the acutal price of the car that I'm going to pay. Hell, include a rebate if I'm gonna get it in the next year. But gas savings over life of the vehicle is an absurd way to psychologically trick people.

You don't see the prius product page saying "well actually it's cheaper because it's a hybrid, you save 2300 over the life of the vehicle on gas!" No, they just tell you what the damn car costs.

Tsla is doing many things right, but that's just a perfect example of some of their deception, which I don't love.

I'm surprised Twitter allowed this company to use its platform to advertise vigilantism, with strong provocation orders such as "hunt down" and "bring to justice", which with vigilante types essentially encourages violence.
Citizen's implementation aside, I feel like there's a real market for something like this. I was walking down the street a few months ago and was physically attacked by somebody (as in, the man punched and attacked me until I ran out into the middle of the street into oncoming traffic for safety).

I feel like there should be some sort of service that's able to offer some kind of protection in situations like this, or at least able to track down and prevent this kind of person from recommitting after he's shown a willingness to violently attack other people.
Everyone is a victim of crimes, not just upper-middle-class white folks. In fact, the UMC folks are the ones who can afford to just write off the losses caused by property crimes, and are less susceptible to fall victim to the worst crimes, like murder.
Before regulations, pollution was solved by strict property rights enforcement. Courts eventually stopped enforcing property rights because it allowed for zero pollution.
Regulation agencies were created to allow pollution, but in a manner that would be acceptable to balance business needs.

In effect, regulations have only outsourced the creation of pollution to elsewhere. How much better have we actually gotten vs just making the optics look better?

However, ironically if politics weren't involved, there might actually be more universal public opposition and pressure on companies as before political involvement in climate change the belief in climate change was about equal among left and right.

Military response should require an act of congress which requires debate and discussion which should also involve the public.

Congress has given up its role in this endeavor to the executive branch, but that is how it is supposed to be. With more open debate and discussion at least your more likely to stay within the realm of rational.
At least in the US, where and were are pronounced differently.
The attackers percentage of stake would obviously not change but all tokens on that entire chain would be worth nothing once the public realized it had been hacked. They would hold 51%, or even 100% of a $0 token.

All the verifiers who took part in the fraud and all the accounts linked to them would be traced and not given any stake in the new fork.
When you witness and you or people you know fall victim to crime, you don't need to be told about it, there are no media involved, no talking heads with talking points.

Real people are having real crimes committed against them. Wanting a society where that doesn't happen is as far from racist as you can get. The people who stole $9k of my former startup's equipment were just as likely white, anyway.
Even if we allow ourselves to imagine policing as a commodity in the most charitable way possible, what citizen did is still way out of bounds. Rabble rousing an anonymous mob to chase people down is something different from buying security on the open market. I'm against even the most charitable take on private policing because it requires an incredibly childish understanding of society to even take seriously, but these psychopaths are just forming random lynch mobs and should have their funding pulled.

Since I'm getting downvoted I figured I'd post the numbers.

New F-150 Lightning curb weight estimate is 6500 lbs.

H1 is 7200-7500 lbs.

H2 is 6400-6600 lbs.

The F-150 is a couple feet longer but both the H1 and H2 are wider and taller.

Use those numbers to make your own determination. F-150 specs are from here: https://media.ford.com/content/dam/fordmedia/North%20America...
Twitch continues to pretend hot tub streams aren't intentionally sexually suggestive. What a joke.

Totally unrelated: has anyone noticed that the bar on the F in the FORD logo ends with an e? It has been like that for a while. I remember reading somewhere that Henry Ford had forecasted that transportation was going to be all electric in the future; maybe related? Anyway, I think the demand for this will take them by suprise, and incidently, CT and Rivian need to get those factories churning quick.
Funny because this is my argument and I have zero control of the smartphone ecosystem. I have zero interest or investment in backing any kind of mafia. It just makes sense to me. If Nintendo can build an ecosystem of hw, sw, 1st party games and charge a 30% revenue share, why can’t Apple?
Two points, from the study itself, 50B is their median estimate but their mean estimate is 428 billion [1]:

> We calculate that there are likely to be ∼50 billion individual birds in the world at present: about six birds for every human on the planet. This represents the midpoint of our estimates (i.e., the median), albeit with considerable uncertainty (Fig. 2). Compared with the median estimate, the mean estimate of the aggregated distribution for all birds in the world was ∼428 billion individual birds (Fig. 2). While we provide an estimate with a wide highest-density interval, our estimate corresponds well with a previous estimate of the number of individual birds in the world by Gaston and Blackburn (37), who estimated that there were between 200 and 400 billion individual birds in the world. Notably, Gaston and Blackburn (37) did not estimate species separately but rather extrapolated from small-scale density estimates in which all bird species were considered equal. We, however, provide data for nearly all the world’s bird species.

This is a massive disparity in their own estimates, and they acknowledge the uncertainty.

As others have noted, they are also not including farmed birds, so this is an estimate of birds in nature.

Awesome, glad to hear good things
Didn’t extended ASCII cover that and make text terminals usable with non-English character sets? Genuinely curious.
> Really complicated question, but considering the free world got wikipedia and openstreetmaps, I'd bet we'll find a way.

Both of those involve entering data about external things. Asking people to share their own data is another thing entirely—I suspect most people, me included, are much more suspicious about that.

That's something that can be very useful in problem solving. Helps you finding new ideas. The hard thing is grabbing this idea and waking yourself up when you strike gold.
First of all, every time a tornado struck and the roof was blown off, instead of running like hell, the infected would stop to stare upward in amazement, possibly waiting for the arrival of a giant bird.

That was easy.

So in this dystopian future you require money in order to get security protection?

> I can't afford a private security force, but I could afford an on-demand subscription.

And if you run into hard times in life and can not afford this subscription? Are we going to have "levels" of policing depending on which company you are subscribed to and the higher cost ones offer "better" policing?

The "defund the police" movement will never be successful in a way that dismantles law enforcement. We'd have a lot more problems at that point than being forced to deal with for-profit security companies.
With the chip shortage, looks like we are safe.
Well, to be fair, encouraging foreign language isn't exactly the best idea for most students. Higher priorities might include some understanding of economics, law, personal finances, golf, negotiating, public speaking, time management, decorum, and... basically everything else.
> The likelihood of serious injury or death is such a step function from one to the other that the difference between sedans and trucks is hairsplitting.

Given the choice of hitting an inclined windshield and rolling over the top of a vehicle vs. taking the full force of a giant body-length grille, I'd rather take my chances with the windshield.
What precisely constitutes a burnout?

The Maslach Burnout Inventory, mentioned in TFA, is probably the most widely used/recognised specific classification / diagnostic mechanism.

If you think you're experiencing burnout, my recommendation would be to seek mental health support and specifically request the burnout assessment. Getting that might be more difficult than you'd expect, the sector is often averse to making such determinations.
Depends on your use case. I'd say everything that is easily adaptable to a certain amount of common settings, is already there: run of the mill webshops, static websites/blogs/cms-es, forms, "info card" apps. And even with these, run if you want to think outside the box. More complex scenarios require so many knobs and switches that anyone working on them has to become a quasi-developer of a much worse and restrictive "language", akin to SAP or Liferay. So other than that above, put all the "no-code" tech besides "disruptive ai big data blockchain augmented reality platform".
The actual killer application of character count matching is bioinformatics. You only need four distinct characters to encode DNA, which of course, means in reality you only need two bits, but I don't know if anyone has bothered to develop a two-bit character encoding system and instructions that can operate on them. They have come up with extremely optimized implementations that compare byte streams, though, utilizing ASCII GCTA.
They probably have ridiculously good engagement. Very tough for twitch to give that up more than likely.
I think it's easy to underestimate just how large and undeveloped the majority of the USA is.

England has a population density of 275 people per square kilometer, 281 if you consider the entire UK. UK also has an agricultural area of about 23 million acres, at 70% of available land. That means that a huge majority of UK land is developed and actively used, and over an area of 23 million acres.

The US population density is 36 per square kilometer. That is about 1/8th the population density, which is already a huge difference. In addition, the total USA land used in agriculture is about 900 million acres, which is nearly 40x greater an area. So we are currently at 40x the agricultural land, at 1/8th the population density.

The kicker to this is that the US agricultural land use is only 44%. So not only do we have 1/8 population density, 40x the agriculture land mass, we also don't even break 50% of land use for agriculture purposes. This all combines to mean a few things.

1. People that have land in the USA tend to have a lot more land.

2. There tends to be large amounts of unused land all over the place with no development.

3. A lot of land is being developed for the first time, instead of redeveloped.

This doesn't directly answer your question as far as needing a trailer vs a truck, but it should give you an idea that the USA is much less developed and a lot more rugged than the countryside of a much older and more established and smaller land mass like the UK. Trucks make it a lot easier to handle all the unexpected situations that occur from having the land situation we have.

One other point I'll add at the end of this. The USA also has extremely different and varied climates compared to the mild oceanic climate of the UK. This means more of every type of weather and bigger extremes. This takes huge tolls on both the roads and how tame undeveloped land is. For instance, in the midwest, it is not uncommon for large semi trucks and pickup trucks with huge tires to be the only cars capable of driving on the highway as the highway is covered in a foot of snow and they're the only vehicles capable of driving in it.
It turns out that the timescales to develop civilization and then to evolve to fit in it work on different orders of magnitude.
I worked on a Logo computer in 1983 but never launched it. Even so I tried to keep up with the Logo community over the years. I was very disappointed to see what schools did with Logo through the 1980s. To me it seemed that the worst problem was that the teachers were gatekeepers - if there was a book they were the ones who had it and they only passed a small fraction of that to the students. Every time I would see a school showing of their student's Logo projects I would see how many pages of the "Apple II Logo" book you would have to read to do that. It normally would be around the first 8 to 12 pages of the 280 page book.

The solution would be to put the book in the system. That is what Smalltalk-80 came close to offering. But 8 bit floppy-based computers were not up to that. Eventually the Internet would become a way around the gatekeepers, but by then the idea that Logo had failed had become widespread and we had to wait for Scratch to occupy (not very well) that space.

I don't know but the according to the forms for registration you seem to need a Swedish identification number for the CEO of the non-profit. The same is true when you want to change the members of the governing council. These are hard to get a hold of if you do not live here. You also need to be based in some part of Sweden, and there is a fee associated with moving HQ to a different region in Sweden. These organizations can be insanely complicated in their nature and are allowed to own and operate very large companies (some of the largest in Sweden are owned this way).

...because the existing and established ones have something unique to offer and to copy that would be an enormous (and slow) undertaking (but it is being done, civilization has always been spreading to free areas, it is just slow) - but once you crack open an hassle free secure consensus system (software, not bound by limited physical reality) the old one does not have anything unique to offer for the group of people who are unhappy about who holds the power.

If there was an exact replica of Manhattan (or if it was trivial to create it) - and I mean really exact with all the affordances it provides - think of an empty copy of the world, Manhattan is in the same place, but mostly empty (just established), that you can switch to with a keypress (and could switch back and forth) - what would happen?
Yes they are. As for what to use, I would always go for wal.

It depends how big you think. Dealing with status quo, things like text direction are necessary complication.

But at a higher scale it’s purely incidental complexity: you only need one direction for all languages. All languages are linear. No language uses direction to encode meaning. Direction in language is just “stuff starts one place and ends in another”.

Balkanization of the encodings is not a good thing. Imagine if every city had a different color for a traffic stop light. Why not? Maybe it’s a matter of cultural pride. What if every country had its own network protocols? Imagine what a nightmare internet would be.

But thankfully we had common sense in few cases. In many others we don’t.

And Unicode is full of incidental complexity itself. Did we really need skin color emoji. Who is yellow here? Anyone being brightly yellow perchance? No. We had the perfect abstract color for emojis.

But now we have to deal with this shit.
Link #2 is a low-level, disrespectful and rude document - filled with personal attacks and insults.

How can you expect to gain any sympathy posting something that is phrased like that?

Despicable.
That's sort of a biased source you link. It lists deaths, but often times these deaths come as a result of someone threatening a cop with a deadly weapon. There's been like two dozen shootings from the LAPD so far this year, and most were due to someone charging an armed cop with a knife or a similar suicidal incident. I think just looking at use of force without context will give you a pretty biased view. Certainly it's been overused, but a lot of times, especially with the mental health crisis going on where people who are insane and a danger to others are allowed to refuse treatment, it is justified when another life is at stake.
I, for one, am very much looking forward to the n-gate write up on this thread.
The joke is asserting that hot tub streams aren't sexually suggestive. The twitch community seems to love them, so of course Twitch will fight tooth and nail to keep them. But to suggest that they aren't sexually suggestive (and by proxy against Twitch ToS) is an absolute joke. They look like clowns.
Don't forget about naughty pictures such as the subject holding mind-altering drugs such as coffee or alcohol.
