That's not necessarily true. The biggest reason that people don't opt in to things voluntarily is because people are lazy, not because they've weighed the options and decided that opting in doesn't benefit them. (See the sibling comment, which mentions organ donation.)

We had this whole debate over COVID tracking. They've come up with a system that is actually pretty secure. It's entirely client side: none of your location information is ever revealed unless you report yourself as having tested positive for COVID. Opting in is not that unreasonable even for paranoid people (I use the app). And yet it has to be an opt-in system, which means it's unlikely to be effective.

Similar with Apple having its network for those tracking things set to opt-out, not opt-in. Having the network available to its customers is a benefit to them, and not enough people would opt in.

IMO, we need a third alternative in between opt-out and opt-in. The first doesn't sufficiently respect individuals' right to privacy, the second falls apart in a kind of inverse tragedy of the commons. As far as I know the only possible alternative is forced-choice: while setting up the device you should have to read a short statement about what it can do and the positives / negatives, and choose whether you want to enable that feature.

I imagine many people working at Amazon do feel that this feature provides value to people without impacting privacy. It's effectively a very low bitrate VPN to the Amazon cloud for the purpose of controlling IOT devices. As far as mesh networks go, that's pretty unintrusive and certainly provides value to some customers, even though I agree that making it opt-out is unacceptable.
Look at the plots in my link above. The rates have been low or falling off a cliff for a long time. Again, not doubting efficacy of vaccines. I’m proud to be fully vaccinated. But there’s something else at play.

Not sure I agree with it, but "Exactly those actions intended to cause publicly visible changes (such as comment graying) should be subject to transparency, which anything else (such as viewing videos or comments) should be subject to privacy." seems like a prefectly self-consistent position.

One annoying thing I have noticed about many company/project blogs that they have no link on the header to go to the actual project website (project.com). Instead the main logo takes back to the blog (blog.project.com). You have to manually type the URL for the actual website.

For e.g. even this site: https://blog.ycombinator.com/
It spreads in the summer. Look at my plots (link above) for Texas’s summer surge. Was happening when I was a Boy Scout summer camp. Kind of weird to be in that communal environment at that time (albeit outdoors mainly, where spread is unusual).

As always with anything, it seems like there is a wide range of reactions to quitting. I know of people who quit and never went back to smoking, and I also know people who find it incredibly hard to stay off of it forever and go back to smoking sooner or later. For some people's brains, it does seem impossible to quit forever for some reason regardless of how much they want to quit etc

2.7.2 the current for a while then you could manually update to some iffy 2.9.5 release? I never did much c++ in the 90s. 2.7.x was generally fine for c on hpux/Solaris/digital/Linux and maybe os/x?

I buy from all of those places, but when they are sold out I also check digikey (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/raspberry-pi/SC09...) and canakit (https://www.canakit.com/raspberry-pi-pico.html). They both have it now. Digikey says "2 in stock" but I think this really means "2 per customer" because there is another view I found where it looks like they have 14000+ in stock (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/evaluation-boards...)
You need to work backwards from two decisions to be taken in future - your role and the area of operation.

Role is important because being a software development manager requires different skills than being a senior developer. For the latter you need to code more, understand how things work under the hood and develop a strong grasp over the fundamentals. For becoming a manager, understanding systems while preserving some abstractions is important. You also need to understand people and how you can effectively delegate. Similarly, there are other traits required for being a technical writer, a consultant or a technical program manager. Once you know the traits that will be useful for your future, invest time to nurture them.

Secondly, figuring out the area is important since you want to enjoy your work. It should be something that you are naturally excited about and see a value in. An area can be something as broad as software infrastructure or as specific as distributed message brokers. Once this is figured out, you can intensively read up on the relevant topics to gather knowledge and develop depth. This should be helpful to establish yourself as a domain expert regardless of the role you play later. However, you do need to try out a lot of things to discover which one of them intensely resonates with your interests. This process should involve working on small side projects and reading up. Being naturally curious helps.
My wife asked me to stop drinking while she was pregnant, and I complied. I think it backfired though, because I drank more after she gave birth than I ever did before.
I would agree that people who understand the UX at first glance are part of the target market.

However, there are a lot of people (like me) who could be educated a little bit and would then be happy to use/pay for a tool like this. I wouldn't ignore these folks because they could increase the market size by 2-3x.
I don't think those papers mean what you think they mean. I could be wrong, I'm not perception studies expert, but the first one seems to say that binocular parallax (signals from looking with two eyes) are relatively reliable, especially in daylight conditions (the case you critique). Second two seems to talk about how high up in the sky something is as being the biggest distortion in estimating distance. Also the last one involved bizarre artificial conditions of looking through light bending prisms. Our eyes are definitely unreliable (to a certain extent), you have a blindspot in the middle of your vision in both eyes (retinal optic nerve spot) but you nearly never see it because your brain can interpolate. But I think judging something like this, in the well lit conditions described, I think you're exaggerating the difficulty. And I dislike that because it seems dishonest, and cruel to witnesses. It's a form of gaslighting. You have people (Navy pilots, civilians) coming forward and seeing things, and then everyone else wants to say, "Are you sure you saw that?" I get it, because you didn't see it, so it's natural to doubt. But you will walk across the street today, and reach down and pick up a coin, and I'll stop you and say, are you sure those cars are that far away, are you sure you see the coin. Don't cross the street, don't touch that coin. Maybe it's a hallucination. Maybe it's a bomb. Maybe it's a snake. Of course I wouldn't do that. That would be crazy. People casting doubt should doubt their own doubt too. It shouldn't be natural to doubt when so many people say the same thing.

No. If you have both a source of time-truth and a source of location-truth you can reject these signals.

Fiat money is only legal tender in the country which issues it. You can find plenty of businesses outside the US willing to transact in USD.

When I was old enough to have some experience and felt like I knew what I was doing but not quite as old as I am now I had an idealized notion of self-employment. Mostly because of the flexibility I imagined it would provide, partly because of ego. It took some dabbling and dealing with horrible clients before coming to the realization that self employment and employment are really two sides of the same coin. The goal if you want true flexibility and freedom should be to put yourself in a situation where you are no longer dependent on selling your time for money as your source of income.

Now whenever someone asks if I want to do contract work for them I remind myself that I don't want to be in the business of selling my time for money.

Are you claiming that American citizens have fewer constitutional rights when not on American soil but attempting to return? Where in the Constitution does it say that?

Anyway, once again, this is all beside the point. I'm not talking about one particular country. I'm talking about the worldwide desire to avoid serious lockdowns.

And I don't know about your church or synagogue, but my church closed voluntarily - and remains closed (we're reopening in limited amounts in a couple of weeks) - because our religion teaches us that when Satan says "You will not surely die!" and tempts us with short-term freedom, we say no. We've been online. It works great.
Were you using gloves or something like that?

ORLY? I didn't know that. Oh wait I literally said it in the comment you replied to.
>We have plenty of our own hackers and ransomware

The overwhelming majority of the recent, most notable attacks have been traced near-exclusively to foreign actors, including the one that is the subject of the actual thread here.

>i am not seeing how foreign-angle adds anything to the debate

Of course, it has everything to do with the debate. Specifically, with how we respond/deter.

>most data leaks and hacks are ... people being negligent and irreaponsible.

The attack surface is vast.

>If a bank was robbed by two kids armed with a banana

We're literally veering into cartoon territory here. Not sure I understand why you're working so hard to exonerate the actual criminals.
my bad, I didn't click on the article haha, but went straight to the comments.
What you're ignoring is that "signal" is in the interpretation. You're blind to that. You can crank up data, and wind down your "signal" to confirm your existing biases. In fact that's what you need to do to preserve your "no unexplained" belief system. And that's what you see, people reaching for every more crazy explanations to pretend they didn't see what they saw: "the pilots hallucinated, and the battlegroup sensors all hallucinated, at the same time, repeatedly, over a few months"

I like the liminal theory but this isn't the same thing.
Pretty sure alcohol is way harder on your body than edibles or vaping cannabis. Alcoholism has a huge blast radius.
It's amazing how much of automotive sales can be explained by:

"consumers pick up on thing people in the know were saying for 10yr straight 10yr ago but recently stopped saying and run with it for 10yr"
I'm a regular drinker, but I do a dry month every year. I make it a point to not let it change my social life at all — which means still spending plenty of time at bars and socializing with people drinking. I typically drink non-alcoholic beers (there are good ones that taste like beer) or ciders when available. When not, I go for soda-bitters, sometimes with a splash of lime juice.

Lyres, Seedlip, and other non-alcoholic spirits just don't do it for me. They taste like water.
Pods don’t really hurt social media companies though.
I don't know about kernel builds, but memory pressure is the usual limiting factor when building for macOS/iOS builds when you step up parallelization like this.

Another possibility is system bugs that can be exposed when it thermal limits because it will stop running background QoS tasks, and things waiting on them will hang. It's pretty hard to stress it to that level.

I have done both these things by building compilers on M1. The memory pressure wasn't always from the host compiler but rather tools like dsymutil that may not be perfectly optimized themselves.

> Built with Rust. No Electron. No VimScript. No JavaScript.

Great. So, what's the extension language? Rust is utterly inadequate to be a scripting language (if you have to recompile the text editor to reconfigure it, that's a non-starter).

VimScript sucks, but it's better than literally nothing. Emacs Lisp is weird, but powerful. Python is great and everyone knows it. Lua is small, simple, blindingly fast, and literally designed to be embedded in compiled projects.

Why is there no mention of extensions or extensibility?
Why don't the down voters explain what is wrong about my sightings here at home? Or why is the truth about the discussed situation unwelcome here?
I’ve long been a fan of the wagon format and have been happily driving a 2004 Subaru Legacy for years now. Before that, I had a 2014 Audi A6 Avant which is the wagon version, and it was similarly spacious if significantly less reliable.

The Legacy is objectively small compared to many cars on the road in Australia, it fits comfortably in small car parking spaces and yet can still carry everything I need it to.

For recent years, Subaru has sold a model called the Levorg here which seems like the spiritual successor to the Legacy wagon in many ways. BMW, VW, Audi, Volvo etc. all still sell wagon format vehicles here which is nice, but as noted by about everyone else, the direction is towards a more off-road capable crossover format which I not looking forward to should I ever be looking for a new car again.

I’ll finish with my real wish list for a modern wagon, and it reads like the features on my Legacy - Enough power to be a fun drive, low enough to be somewhat competent handling, manual transmission (not a deal breaker , but I love my 6 speed), spacious enough to fit an IKEA dinner table into the back
Fermentation is a great way to store excess food, which is why there's a ton of fermented foods across cultures. For civilizations centered around cereal crops, it makes sense that you'd see a lot of fermented cereal crops such as beer.

You can definitely see the benefit for an ancient civilization, since you're able to store many more calories which allows you to grow a much larger population base. But like many things associated with the move to agrarian civilizations, being good for the civilization doesn't necessarilly correlate with being good for the individual.
Unintended UAPs
It's not entirely technical. The law that allows binding arbitration, and it's associated caselaw, says that parties that impose binding arbitration are also financially responsible for the filing fees of aggrieved parties that want to engage in arbitration. If you don't pay those fees, then the binding arbitration clause is null and void and your counter-parties are free to sue in court.

This is specifically because binding arbitration isn't supposed to grant corporations sovereign immunity. It's just to provide an alternative to litigation for people who want it.
Yes, the crossover is simply a station wagon that attempts to attach itself to the decades of sport utility vehicle advertising about tromping through parks and being "sporty".

It's almost to the point that a minivan is actually a nonconformist choice.
Good point. I don’t periodize my BJJ training, but when I am tired and sore I go light. I like an undulating periodization model for both cardio and strength work. Rest and knowing what the precursors to overtraining are like are huge. My “limit” training is what I can maintain year round. Base training as it were with smart full breaks here and there. I have read way too many books on strength training and running, used to run ultras and lift a lot before embracing martial arts. Undulating periodization basically works out to a few different training intensities and modalities that are cycled through carefully to promote stimulus and avoid overtraining. It’s similar to block periodization in concept to block periodization but the blocks are more flexible and at my age much shorter before I have hit the max benefit of a block and moved on to the next one. The cool thing about undulating periodization is you pick up where you left off in a block.
It’s lower than expected in Dallas.
I wouldn't call x86-64 all that legacy (it's like, recently legacy) and that's all Rosetta supports. But performance is not that bad even if you stack something like WINE on top to handle i386 programs.
