That’s what most want when they think of signing a document. There’s all sorts of technical stuff relative to PDF Signing (cryptographic) and why it matters but most people that want signed documents want to be able to say the user was presented with this document and signed it. Most also fail to understand the technical mechanisms that are important to be able to defend that a user saw what you wanted them to see and then signed it. It’d be easy to argue that the other party showed you another document, got your signature and then overlaid it onto a new document. That’s the issue with many open source signing schemes, they aren’t provable because few if any implement both cryptographic signing and signature overlay.
Lumen is very cool tech, but it has its imperfections. Namely, fast transitions between lighting will have weird, unrealistic fades. But honestly, who cares, it's very cool.
So this woman was written up on charges for Distribution/Manufacture of Schedule 1 drugs (among other things)[0], and was subsequently the subject of a minor inconvenience when she discovered that she was being (legally) monitored by the cops. The cops then asked for their property back.

And the result of this was a sympathetic write-up of the poor, mildly inconvenienced drug dealer?

That study isn't about Facebook targeting, right? It's anecdotal, but FB/Instagram ads are noticeably better for me than anywhere else: they're probably the only ads that have ever resulted in me buying the advertised product.
What would the "killer app" even be, you make it sound like it should be very obvious what it would be, but even knowing exactly what it should be, a killer app is still just luck and the right timing.

The only app that I could imagine bringing mainstream appeal would be a Ready Player One Oasis kind of thing (I've only seen movie, not read the book), but seeing and testing all the social vr apps we have now, the Oasis is the most fantasy thing about that universe.
The usage of the word "tracking" is true.

Apps can still display ads. They may not build a user profile and attach it to your identity across apps.
You start from a base image of your choice. You only build the user replacement part.

You run docker-compose build ONCE and you're set. On my machine, it takes five seconds.

Heck, you can even run docker-compose build everytime you start the application, it will use the cached build and take less than one second.

Correction: the docker-compose up -d takes care of the build process the first time it runs.

Literally, it takes more to complain about the issue than build the image ONCE.

No Choice but War: The United States Embargo Against Japan and the Eruption of War in the Pacific

And you'll find out that there was continual and worsening relations with Japan due to US imperialism. Hawai'i was only one such territory colonized and conquered.

And there were economic sanctions from 1931 to 1941 for various products.

But this is also out of the US playbook to surround an enemy or proposed enemy, pull out economic sanctions, and then pull out the single bad thing. For example, here's the AFB's around Iran https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-4d67205db3b8a9d820ca77... , but we're supposed to only look at Natanz nuclear refining.

Now, I'm not saying that Japan was honorable in combat. They death-marched Chinese. The "comfort women" were rape and murder victims. But really, all nations have similar horrific stories. Japan, alike the US, was no different in that regard.

Recently ran into this. So far I've landed on `setfacl`

- `--user` didn't work for me because there were root permissions in my image

- I didn't dig into why `userns-remap` didn't work

- I didn't give https://github.com/boxboat/fixuid a try yet

Some notes from my experience

setfacl -dm "u:alexandros:rw" ~/alpine

should be

setfacl -R -dm "u:alexandros:rwx" ~/alpine

In case:

- `-R`: There is existing content in `~/alpine` you want made avalable

- `x`: You want your container to be able to create directories

However, you can still run into problems if

- Your container copies data from outside your bind-mount to inside. It sort-of worked except somehow the mask was `r--`, making things lose writeable.

- Your container moves data from outside your bind-mount to inside. This fully preserves the permissions.

I ended up creating a `.keep` file in the bind mount and doing a `cp --attributes-only --preserve=mode,ownership,xattr .keep <target>`
It's not unique to Lumen either, a lot of RT implementations use multi-frame accumulation to achieve good results, we're just not quite there in terms of raw power to do bounce lighting without it.

This is probably one of those things which will separate next-gen lighting from current gen when we have truly instant bounce lighting fill after a geometry change or light position change.

As each piece of space junk is added, does the probability of getting hit increase linearly? Or is it a curve? I ask because the press uses language like "ticking time bomb" which implies some sort of curve or vicious cycle or tipping point that will be hit. Is it that the collisions would in turn create more space junk, at a high enough rate that this would cause a true acceleration?
This week has been win/win/win for Putin and Lukashenko. The EU cutting ties with Belarus pushes the Belarussian people further into Russia's arms. Lukashenko got to cast terror into the heart of the opposition movement.

Russia needs the countries on its European border. It is completely exposed militarily - flat lands leading all the way to its heartland routinely used by invaders. It already has two NATO countries on its border and another country (Ukraine) that has asked to join. The last thing it needs is a wall of NATO countries pressed up against its jugular.

Having Belarus on side is critical for them.
Of course, but really only build once on every machine. The subsequent starts use the cached build, even after reboot.

In fact, docker-compose up -d takes care of the build thing by itself. It's a five second tradeoff for the lifetime of the application.

> When most people say "immigrate", they are not referring to foreign worker status that allows for long term residency, but actual naturalization.

It depends on how the country defines it, but to "immigrate" doesn't generally mean naturalization.

Immigration means to obtain permanent residency (in the U.S., a green card or LPR status; in Canada, Australia, NZ, landed immigrant or permanent resident status; in the UK, indefinitely leave to remain). Permanent residency generally confers most rights of citizenship, apart from a few like the right to hold a passport of that country, to vote (exceptions exist), etc.

Naturalization means to obtain full citizenship. It's the step that comes after immigration, and it is optional. Not all immigrants elect to naturalize for various reasons (e.g. wanting to keep original citizenship in cases where dual citizenship is prohibited, tax rules, military service, etc.). Some choose to remain permanent residents forever, and they can. It's their choice.

And you're right -- if someone has a temporary status like a foreign worker status (even if it's infinitely renewable), that would be considered neither immigration nor naturalization.

I'm not sure how things work in Japan, but it is possible for a country to be easy to immigrate into, but hard to naturalize in. These two things can be simultaneously true.

(in other words, easy to get permanent resident status, but hard to get citizenship)

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted - this is 100% true. This lines perfectly with my experience.

Upside at least - with small towns there usually isn’t much need for public transit as much because things are closer together if you live near the stuff to begin with. Downside - usually the people you become friends with at school live in the sticks and take a bus or parents car into school. So, if you want to see your friends... you need a ride. It was very common in my small town to pull in people from 10+ miles away for the high school and middle school.

A lot of small towns are also very poor. We only had four day school weeks because they decided to axe the fifth day due to budget cuts. Almost all elective classes were cut as well - which meant as a student who maybe had an interest that lined up with getting out of small town... very difficult to get learnings on.

People who post here are almost 100% unlikely to have their children in such a trap but it’s worth pointing out.

In this case the law is just fine. The State Supreme Court ruled, essentially, that you can't put an object in someone's car and accuse them of theft if they remove it. The court invalidated search warrants issued based on that faulty assertion.

I totally understand you. Peoples come in here and just go on criticize policies because they don't know the reality of living in an overpopulated country with limited ressources.

In Africa, Burundi, my country of 28km2, we have more than 90% of the litigations in the courts about land and properties. Siblings kill each other for land! We have 5.4 children/woman. One of the biggest natality rate in Africa. Only surpassed by Niger! We have American evangelical coming in scaring peoples to do abortions and contraception! We can't even talk about sterilization! With population density of more than 450 peoples by the km2.

Primary School is free and children get free healthcare till 5 years of age. It means that those 5.4 children per woman are likely to live and multiply!

What do you think we need to do?

I can only imagine how Chinese peoples did projections and saw that by the end of the century they would be half the world population without half the ressources and took drastic measures!
> If you had the luxury of throwing away bridges or planes or space shuttles to test every possible circumstance, then I guess eventually the safety factor could conceivably come down to 1.0, right? You would've satisfied yourself that nothing in the real world was not in your simulations?

Not just 'stress safety' but all the other things.

A NASA project I was related to we logged every single bolt that went on the device, where it came from, the batch number, and had to keep all the old software around in the event we had to reconstruct something.

The amount of overhead was pretty amazing.

Most of that is for safety.

1. the kindle (ebook reader) is a great product but unrelated to fireOS and the product family

2.kindle fire are good cheap options for tablets but don't expect them to even compete with samsung tablets or ipad

3.FireOS is the worst feature of kindle fire products. their launcher is meh at best, the store is empty and some of the apps that are there not update as frequently. The first thing you should do when getting a fireOS product is to install the google play store + services

So to answer the article's question: Nope.

Slightly off topic.

I strongly suspect that $3-4 for coffee is dictated by the unwillingness of the American public to have different prices for take away, counter or sit at a table with a computer for two hours. I live in Italy, and an espresso at the counter is on average 1 euro, go to a nice place sit down and have a waiter serve you and it can easily double in price, if you're sitting in a famous square in Venice it can go up to 5, but in any case you won't be able to order just one coffee and sit for two hours.

So my guess is that every Starbucks customer is just paying for rent, whether they use the table or not. (also possibly the fact that Starbucks can't overcharge you for alcohol is a factor).

I think the difference real-time lighting makes will become more obvious as games cease to be cross-gen and really embrace current generation hardware. Baked lighting can achieve very good, near-photorealistic results in staticly lit scenes with static geometry.

Once we see games really take advantage of dynamic lighting in highly dynamic scenes with a lot of moving elements, I suspect we'll look back at current and recent games and see them as lifeless by comparison.
Wouldn’t you need intent?

At least in the Indiana case that was why the charges did not stick for the man who took it off. He plausibly didn’t intend to ruin a wiretap or steal the device because he thought it was some random thing and he took it off his car.

The AxeFX is old news when it comes to guitar modeling. The newest Kemper firmwares do a much better job, and NeuralDSP's Quad Cortex does an even better job still along with the ability to capture distortion pedals.

Modeling real gear is all fine and dandy, but what really has potential is being able to replicate circuits that aren't viable in the real world, like a tube amplifier on the edge of occilation or one run way over the rated TDP of it's tubes, situations that might provide sonic possibilities that aren't viable long term can now be stable and replicatable long term. Additionally, being able to modify a tone stack in software to provide extra flexibility is very handy.

The Quad Cortex is also slated to receive updates that will allow it to capture modulation effects, and will undoubtedly get better with time as the Kempers did.
I'm sure engineers across geography and time all use a Factor of Safety.

I'm almost as sure that everyone keeps using the number people used before they joined the profession. Because if you decide to lower it, and a disaster happen, you are in very deep shit.

So once set, the number will tend to stick until forced to change by something extraordinary.

Which makes me very curious about how the number varies between independent domains. Do Japanese, Norwegian and US bridge builders all use the same number? Do builders of bridges, skyscrapers, and dams use similar numbers?

The answer would tell us something about how arbitrary these numbers are.
> With the end objective of occupying themselves

The Japanese had no intention of occupying Hawaii. They simply wanted to incapacitate the US Pacific Fleet. Had the US Pacific Fleet's carriers been in port at Pearl Harbor at the time, they would have succeeded.

FPGAs are "Field Programmable Gate Arrays". AKA, reprogrammable logic circuits. Some stuff is just better done using a processor than an FPGA.

Basically, when using an FPGA, you have a finite number of gates you can use: it's like saying "code anything you want, it must be less than 1k lines".

Sequential logic, that's very convoluted with lots of condition, and not performance-critical will be a very good fit for CPUs, while the FPGA remains useful for high-troughoutput, parallel work, and specialized computing elements.

So you can just have a processor plus an FPGA on the same board. But if you need a small fraction of an FPGA, you might as well use the rest to implement a CPU.

And instead of designing your own instruction set, compiler, debugger, etc, you might want to pick an existing one, preferably the best match to your requirements.

You can also modify the instruction set of the CPU to make use of more specific functionality you integrate on the FPGA. And implementing it this way makes it easier to share resources (registers, memory, peripherals).

Of course, there is a performance penalty (frequency and energy) compared to using a "real" transistor-based CPU, and that's one of the reasons manufacturers sometimes integrate ARM cores in their designs.
fortunately places are starting to ban them.
Yeah, pretty sure this is the literal origin of the term. Or closer to it anyway.
Another way to look at factor of safety is margin for error. Implementation variance, material variance, etc can all go wrong if something is designed to be exactly safe.

You need to know that something is redundantly safe, and which parts.
