Just wanted to say my thanks as well, while I have not worked with one of your books, I have a lot of respect for people that choose to release the source of textbooks they created.
Sure, it's just an example. Let's say you're looking for the best buy and hold strategy then, the point is that what you actually want in the future is a strategy that doesn't depend on the particular circumstances in the preceding 20 years.
That is not what the parent said. If there were more stores, then there would be more consumer options to choose a more trustworthy store from (like F-droid).

Of course, that wouldn't be good for Apple: Apple would inevitably have to throw out some of the legit apps in the course of QA and weather more criticism; Apple would lose that revenue and their vig; and Apple would no longer have as many apps in the app store.

Like Amazon, Apple has demonstrated that they prefer that some of their customers get fleeced, as long as they get their cut.

"1 million apps and untold billions in revenue, but only 2% of the top apps are scammy... you can figure out which ones, because we didn't bother.."
There are lots of roundabouts in the Boston area (where we call them rotaries). People encounter them regularly and STILL don't know how to use them. Although recently there have been great strides made in using lane markings to steer drivers through more effectively.
> This was because of the outcome of a class action lawsuit and not the goodness of Apple's heart. They were hiding that they do this before. If it was so great why hide it?

Because it wasn’t relevant. Lots of features aren’t publicized.

> It scares someone into not trusting the repair shop! That's the whole point. Would you have kept going to your mechanic for 10 years if on the second visit when you turned the car on the speaker blared about a potentially harmful non-genuine part being installed?

Nobody is blaring anything from a speaker. Why would you even say that except to exaggerate?

It’s just a message.

> Or would you have gone to the dealership?

If I trusted the repair shop to explain what the message meant and why their part was ok, then why would I go the dealership?
The Story of iText
Bacteriophages are viruses.
This isn’t “one person bought a bad camera”, it was certain ASNs accounting for a huge portion of the traffic. If the operators are unresponsive to the abuse request (making them incompetent network operators), then you absolutely block them. At that point the fallout is the fault of the network operators for operating an abuse friendly network.

This is how cloudflare handles it for normal web services. If you’re coming from trash IPs there is no chance a curl request is going to make it through to a backend without an onerous captcha.
Preventing software monoculture, for one. The same argument could have been made about using Linux instead of Windows not that long ago.

We will occasionally mix one of these in. We are really looking for folks that can actually say 'no'. In some cases, we will keep tossing out absurd requirement on a 'how would you' project. One that some use is asking for a method that does not exist -- we are hoping they know the language well enough to say 'you mean this or this?' or how they can actually say I don't know, but I know where I could look it up.
Text definitely has its place, but so does voice.

My point is that this new channel for discrimination (video conferencing) ignores an overwhelmingly viable extant alternative.
Freedom of speech is often a euphemism these days for capitalism of megaphones. I actually want to move away from celebrity culture and privately owned platforms, means of distribution, and audiences, and towards platforms based on collaboration, where people have to duke it out and address all serious arguments before the public sees it. It might take slightly longer but our society wouldn't be so divided. Individual people can't all be expected to be experts on climate change, vaccines, 5G and so on.

My recollection is they distanced themselves from gun rights cases after defending some right-wing group's right to hold an armed protest... at which one of the group members murdered a counter protestor.

New Jersey does jughandles where you do a right turn after the intersection and then a mini-cloverleaf.

Detroit/Michigan go through the intersection in the left lane, u-turn after the intersection, then turn right at the light.

Have lived substantial years in both states.

New Jersey has the driver drive through the same intersection twice.

Michigan has three intersections: the first one you drive through, the second for the u-turn and the third for the right turn, although the u-turn and right turn could often be done on a red light with low traffic, so it might be faster.

Both require more infrastructure (clover leaf lanes or the u-turn and the light for it)
I consider myself a sociable person and that can have negatives if you're too pally with juniors. They may not take you seriously if they've seen you drunk on the thursday night work drinks. The more senior you go the more of a barrier there should be.
Reader mode probably has a pretty low impact on ads. The full page is usually going to load before you activate reader mode, so the only ads it's actually hiding from you are ones below the fold, which are much lower value to begin with.
Sorry, but that doesn't explain why admin specifically decided to call out the fact that I called out a "celebrity CEO." And, this disagreement is necessarily personal. Although I'm glad you agree with me, I'm not trying to convince anybody, nor do I care what amount of discussion my own, personal disagreement generates.

I've never thought of 10x engineers as someone who can crank out 10x amount of code. Influencing others to accomplish larger goals is the best way to scale yourself reliably. And then there are the rare unicorns who can do both, e.g. John Carmack (having indirectly observed his leadership style at Facebook).

That's a good argument.

But if you think Tesla is averse to taking on risk, how much more risk-averse would the customers take on? Tesla has the law of large numbers and technical data available to them. They are in a position to arbitrage that and get (expected) free money by selling long term insurance to buyers for whom the insurance is a lot more valuable than what it costs Tesla, so why wouldn't they do that?

If indeed the EVs are so much more durable and have such lower maintenance costs but are surrounded by a cloud of doubt, why not remove that cloud? Even if Tesla doesn't ramp up production faster, the increased demand would allow them to command a higher price until production was ramped up.

So if indeed the market is wrong and depreciation curves are too steep, Tesla can arbitrage that. Why they don't should raise some questions, at least it does to me.

It's probably not super "significant", but it's neat. Someone has a light bulb (the omni-directional beacon) 40 km away, and completely invisible if you go looking for it (from his ground station location).

The author pointed a telescope (his directional ground station antenna) straight up and on a rainy day and could see the light bulb turn on and off.
I got a lot of mileage out of neverssl.com before somebody fixed the process to log into various "guest wifi" setups...ones that would intercept/redirect any http request.

Ten Tenets of a Digital Platform
Nah. If you're gonna set yourself up as the ultimate arbiter of what I can run on my device, you are absolutely to blame for any harm that comes as a result.

Protections? Encryption is protection. Address space randomization is protection. This Apple review process? This is just humans failing to do what's expected of them. Also known as negligence.
Can anyone link to the technical version of this rather than the beyond coding version
I don't know how to reconcile the safety culture of 'telling the truth no matter what' and not blaming, with the chain-of-command, authority and obeying orders sir-yes-sir of the military. I probably have a very warped view of military leaders, but I know which customers ask for the 'safety override' button...
Not really. There's no silver bullet when it comes to AoS or SoA. If you have a pair of integers, A and B, that are supposed to be always read/write together, the ABABAB of ECS beats AAA...BBB in terms of cache locality, hands down.

The advantage of ECS in this case is that it enforces data organisation to be coherent to the way data is used.

All this is mentioned on the seminal articles about Data-oriented Design, including the ones that popularised the terms AoS and SoA, and in lots of literature about modern ECS.

I suggest looking up what Entities and Components mean in ECS. It is doing all those things you're thinking of, but in a more optimal way.
I think it's reasonable for people to expect Apple to have a higher standard of review for financial apps (including bitcoin) vs utility apps.
There's nothing "crazy" about the preempt-rt patch and coding your application to use the scheduler policies/priorities. Like anything else worth having in open source, it takes practice to learn or money for consultants.
Do you know that the children do (for most of the time) when lock themselves in their rooms?. Exploring digital landscapes.

Maybe we should tempt them to go out offering real landscapes to explore instead. Most children love hide, lurk and watch animals and would find it extremely pleasant. It has also has more to offer to both, boys and girls.

This is the kind of garden that we are talking about and is 100% top of his game.

Is suitable or not for you?. Well, that depends on your location, presence/absence of dangerous animals, different personalities and ages of the children, etc.

Liberty is a result of the second amendment. The 2nd Amendment ensures there remains a 1st. Disarming a population is the first act of tyranny. Check the history books for countless examples. The Soviets, the Nazis, the Communist Chinese, and on and on — they all had gun control as a key early policy.
And Argentina mysteriously lost a submarine recently too. Hmmm. Did China sink it to protect their illegal fishing?
I think many a BLM protester was violently repressed even as most of the were peaceful and well within excercise their free speech rights.

For both the 1/6 protesters and BLM protesters there were some subgroup that destroyed property and exceeded what many would consider reasonable speech boundaries - but that is something where it make take some time to fully understand how it plays out individually in legal cases.
What is the point being made here? That all the comments in the first six pages are from 7+ years ago?

Really the only nation that can stop this is China.
There was an article not to long ago on HN which talked about why the phrase "It turns out" is an intellectually dishonest argumentation tactic disguised as a passing remark, to make an argument completely devoid of any evidence sound as if it's backed by lots of (otherwise unstated) evidence.

I agree.

However, I find it works beautifully as a counter-attack to similarly dishonest argumentation tactics relying on lack of evidence for their punch. "That won't work" is one of them. All you have to do is say "Actually, I too had considered considered it would not work ... but it turns out it will!", and, voilá, end of diversion. Your opponent will either accept your dishonest "yes it turns out it works" tactic as fact, in which case you can ignore the naysayer and continue arguing your previous point, or your opponent will ask "why does it 'turn out' that it will work?", in which case you can turn their fruitless exclamation into a counter-question of "oh, many reasons, 'it turns out' ... what was the specific reason you felt it would not work?", lead yourself down a 'fruitful' discussion instead.

PS. The objective being, discussion. Not debate. If you're after debate instead, then maybe not the best way to counter this.
If you look at the source of the fine article, you will see that the equations are in MathML. They are pre-rendered by KaTeX from LaTeX notation to MathML. There are other tools that do this, too. MathML is indeed being used, you see. It’s just that nobody wants to write in it.
There are two problems.

1. Where are those $6.8 billion supposed to come from?

2. Market cap is a measure of wealth, GDP measures cash flow for one year. How is an investment into an asset that doesn't produce revenue going to increase GDP over the long term? Even if your Bitcoin go up you can only sell them once, therefore you should delay the sale as much as possible.

In actuality, it went probably closer to: "I'm gonna make a textual preprocessor for C that gives it Simula-like classes, for shits and giggles".
Yep, we aren't exactly being conditioned towards higher frustration tolerance nowadays... I don't think I could still deal with a PC without an SSD.

I think there are different kinds of being-stuck, though. With many problems in science, there's at least things you can try to gather more data. So you're stuck, but you can come up with new experiments to get new insights into the problem. Here, you're only given the one set of examples and have to make do. I guess you could still see the process of generating hypothesis and testing them against the examples as a sort of "experiment", but it still feels a lot "stuckier" if you don't get anywhere with it.

Free speech is the only “right” that matters. Thoughtcrime should not be allowed to be prosecuted, mob lynching is not justice. But if the ACLU is compromised maybe it is too late.
Putting people in prison for years
>people ... suggest cancel culture is only something to complain about if you've done / said something wrong

This is an oversimplification. What you might be extrapolating from is the common sentiment that complaining about cancel culture is not substantive in cases where an individual appears to have done something wrong enough to justify the consequences. Yes, "wrong enough" is of varying subjectivity in each case, but focusing on "cancel culture" as some kind of monolithic evil instead of focusing on the details of each case is a very common source of noise, and so is commonly criticized, and that criticism may be what you're accumulating into "cancel culture is only something to complain about if you've done / said something wrong".
Exempt that protestor wasn’t killed by a gun. Yet surprisingly, the ACLU hasn’t come out against the automobile.
Generally, if something fails in the battery it is individual cells and those can be replaced separately. It is rare for the entire battery pack to fail at one time.
My personality seem not to allow me to just do one thing. Even today, I have a couple of jobs and I enjoy the variety of challenges. It's also risk management - basically any of my jobs could fail and it would not really affect me, which allows me to have a certain distance to each of the activities as well.
Many productions in the SW universe had to live up to the movies and many have. Decades ago a single trilogy was good enough to kick off a whole Star Wars novel market and get one of its mentioned planets, Coruscant, officially adopted by George Lucas.

Books like the Thrawn oder Bane trilogies would have been great material for films and much better than anything Disney put out so far. Knights of the Old Republic set the bar for how to retell A New Hope and makes The Force Awakens look like a sloppy parody.

That kind of material would still not even out the hype, but seriously, Disney should really put some people who actually know and care about Star Wars in important positions, people who correctly see it as a red flag when a movie director isn't only tasked with making a sequel before the predecessor is completed, but also discards the previous director's story concept.
I see the value in internalizing the cost of breaking changes. But rather than just suffer a doc burden to discourage change, why not fix it with something like Stripe’s version conversions?
Restoring a 1921 Milburn Light Electric 27L
short answer yes - they are talking about the free voter Id option (which is going to cost precious state resources! haha-laughing voice) and the $5 option
- there is also discussion about using the mobile app to get most of the process pre-done before you arrive at a DMV to finish.

motivation - I think it's obvious push back to a bunch of low-level tactics that were used to change the playing field for getting votes in in several places - things that were unexpected and unplanned for by many - and some of those things that could indeed be used for a lot of fraud - so they are tightening up the many of the abuse angles.

At least the playing field is basically leveled at this point - people have 2 or 4 years to get an ID - it shouldn't take that long, it shouldn't take 9 months or 3 days (events I have personally witnessed)

- I'd love some hard numbers on how many adults in GA don't have a pic ID,

And maybe it's time for an APP I was thinking about many years ago.

A DMV shame app
- where people could take a pic upon arrival and share a location showing they were still at DMV X number of hours later.. and then combine that with data about income loss and tax revenue to the local and state - loss - and multiply it by the number of other suspected waiting individuals - and use it to help people find best DMV, and best times to go - but also to notify the Governors about the losses they are creating.. along with link to petitions to change / hire more - expand staff / locations.. and show alternative options is available, like county clerks, apps, digital kiosks.. I'd still love for such a thing, maybe it'd get more traction with all the hubbub about IDs these days.
Microwave reflections/refraction off of the rain made the otherwise blocked line-of-sight signal temporarily not blocked.

This is also how "troposcatter" shots work with microwave radios. If the distance between two stations is too far for line-of-sight (due to earth curvature effectively being a "hill" in the way), you can bounce the signal off of the troposphere.
those invested with "authority" to torture should be subjected to the method[s] of torture so as to have first hand experience regarding effectiveness and exploits, similar to training for the use of pepper spray or other lacrimation substances.

"Reasonable" doesn't have anything to do with it. The thought process is that a smarter but equally deplorable candidate would be able to able to tailor and segregate their messaging so that each subgroup hears what they want to hear, uniting both the center and the far right to secure the presidency. Trump was only good at telling the crazies what they wanted to hear because he wasn't that smart; a skilled politician is good at telling everybody what they want to hear.

Much as I would be happy about the end of the Republican party, thinking that they're finished or don't know what they need to do to win again is fantasy. The Democrats need to distance themselves from antagonistic progressiveism that is driving voters into the arms of the Republicans immediately or they stand a pretty good chance of losing future elections. That is what the minority voting numbers of 2020 show.

And it's probably not worth it to show losses as opposed to a small profit. In the latter case you can probably cruise under the radar so long as you're not trying to deduct anything unreasonable in the context of the business. (A computer or office chair for a small software business is probably reasonable; a car is not.)

Try playing with Mathjax's own accessibility settings. Not sure how well that works on Openstax, will work well if they're using Mathjax 3, badly otherwise.

Alternatively play with MathPlayer's settings (in the control panel), some of the other reading modes work better in certain contexts.

If you can, also try VoiceOver on the Mac, it has its own math support, which works pretty well.
