The creator themselves, in a subsequent Tweet, stated their's is a reference to the comic book character (https://twitter.com/YourBoswell/status/1405863275997413384), not the mythological character.

So, no, this is in the controversy you think it is.

You are right, that was probably the most significant path not taken, though at the time it probably wasn't attended to with 1997 in mind which is why it was left on the back burner. By the time sovereignty negotiations began in the 80s it was probably too late.
Ive left two windows open almost constantly for a month during the summer and the flies were not that bad.
It's kinda unbelievable that there so much praise for their tightly controlled content and so much scorn for moderation done by Twitter or Reddit. It goes to show how much people's judgement is based on expectations and not absolutes.

Not gp, but think about it that way: what makes necessary for VSCode to have a proprietary version and key plugins?

In addition, I'm not even sure if the telemetry on VS Code can be turned off. I think "yes", but never bothered checking while VS Codium was available.
One method is to move the compressed output from the top to the bottom of the memory with each cycle:

A = Existing compressed sorted chunk;
B = Compressed merge output;
C = New sorted chunk

Start with:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-----CCCCCC

Merge into B, start at top of A and working your way down:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-----BBBBBCCCC--

Finish this iteration like:

--------BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB------

Then refill C and sort it:

--------BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBCCCCCC

Merge B back into A, but forwards this time:

AAAAAAAAAA------BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB---CCC

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-----------
Your last paragraph is unnecessary to making your point — which is very good. We’re still overcommitted to tree-like “directed acyclic” mental models of evolution and life itself, despite convergent evolution (there are sea mammals?! there are sea mammals!!), epigenetics, horizontal gene transfer, wasp and orchid-type feature transfer…
Actually fully featured game engines like Unity have made it possible for smaller and smaller teams to build bigger and bigger games. Not sure where you're getting your numbers from.
The thought of Firefox shilling crypto bux turns my stomach, so I'll have to disagree with you.
They are talking about the 30 year old boomer, its a 4chan meme. He drinks monster zero ultra, plays quake, mows the lawn at 5am, etc. The meme is subtle and sophisticated incorporating multiple levels of irony.

Whenever I listen to Superstar I can’t shake the feeling that Jesus was a boring prog rocker unwilling to move to a different genre, while Judas was a funk, much more willing to embrace the full spectrum of rock music. I always root for Judas for that reason.
The best advice I got in this regard came after receiving our first offer. It was "ok great, now make it a market." Once you have two or more investors who want to invest, the game is easy. You just go back and forth a few times and then pick a number a little bit higher and offer it to one of them to lead the round.

Really it's the same fundamental BATNA advice that applies to any negotiation. Make sure you can afford to walk away.
Comcast used to do a lot of messed up stuff. As I mentioned in a comment somewhere close to here, I've been a customer long enough to have seen those bad days and how they've managed to change since those days.
It's strange that regulations in the US prohibit even things like aspherical/convex mirrors for safety reasons (the reflected image is deformed), or active headlights but deforming the steering wheel and making it less intuitive to control in emergency situations for the average driver is accepted.

The wheel not only has less physical room for the drivers to place their hands, it also presents one missing side and a constantly changing grip angle depending on the position of the wheel, requiring a lot of shuffling of hand.

In Europe there's also no prescription for the shape of the steering wheel so one could sell a car with a trackpad for steering.
Unity Asset Store has done this. Unreal / Blueprints fulfill the same role, but I'm less familiar with them.
I would've said this was no doubt bought by a financial sector company looking for bottom up sentiment analysis, but the whole premise of the parent post is that there's hardly such a thing as bottom up sentiment in local news.

kqueue is not really a replacement for io_uring. That said, FreeBSD can make a POSIX AIO request signal completion to a kqueue, which is a similar model of async I/O.

But as has been pointed out elsewhere, io_uring is also about making other syscalls asynchronous.
It's because Mars's magnetic core isn't spinning, which is also why there's no magnetosphere.

As a quick intro that isn't doesn't have much detail but has links I'd go with[0]. But if you pick up any book on Martian engineering or read any report (NASA reports are public) you'll find mentions of this. This is also discussed deeply in most astrophysics textbooks.

If the idea works out, maybe the company will build more stores. If not, the store can either stick around as a vanity project or can go back to being office space.

I'd love to be proven wrong, but somehow I doubt they'll succeed. Ironically, customer and user interaction is probably Google's biggest challenge, in fact I'd dare say it's its first challenge, AI is a solid second.

Some people dream of the day when a mass of millions of people quitting together will shake the big employers to the bone. That will show them. It's almost a dream of "workers of the world, unite!".

The thing is, if 40% of people plan to quit, they won't quit at the same time. Maybe 5% will quit in August, let's say, and the rest will decide to wait a bit and see. And they'll see how those 5% don't quite find a job the next day, as they thought they would. Most (if not all of the) large companies can function for quite a while with 5% fewer headcount. So those 35% in the wait-and-see bucket will wait a bit more. Which is a different way of saying, they will change their mind.
This is the law; it's not Brave's design. Our design enables you to opt-in, earn, and give to content creators without having to provide any information. The law, however, requires and compels Brave to add KYC into the mix when you wish to self-fund or cash out. Anti-money laundering is not something we can or would circumvent.
ONN has more in common with “satirical news” skits in UK comedy shows than BBC News. I know ONN is US-based, but still – the format is local.
Aren't they illegal in several states? Sadly it seems the yoke is legal in Europe. Madness.
The issue is these designs are ~3% efficient like RTGs and have few moving parts unlike ~35% efficient nuclear reactors on earth. While they sidestep most of the complications of traditional nuclear reactors like radiation shielding, they really aren’t useful designs having low energy output, terrible energy density, relatively short lifespans, and extreme cost.
It's exponential, you can solve it for N=100, but not for N=1,000,000. You can't say "it just takes a lot of time" if that time is > age of the universe.

Oh god, you should really think about what a freedom of speech is (suggested reading: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faurisson_affair). People should have right not to be involved in political discussions, and so they should have the right to tell people to take it elsewhere, even harshly.

I am no right-winger (in fact, I am a socialist), but I understand why Kovarex said what he said, and I think he had a right to do it. Yes, civilized discourse is important, but it's also important to respect individual freedom not to be pushed into such discourse from random Reddit hecklers.

I suppose it offends your sensibilities not because Kovarex did anything immoral, but because of his word choice. And honestly, I hate this surface level of analysis, where we judge the morality of a person by looking only at the words they use. It's counterproductive to addressing real problems, as there are far too many real villains in this world that are very nice in person.
I still don't really get how brave is supposed to work:

You watch significantly fewer ads than before, these ads are then supplied to whoever you yourself engage with. That seems like watching these fewer ads directly on the site, just with a few hoops in between.

The difference is that now you watch fewer ads in total, and you have the Brave-browser as an inbetween, which also somehow has to survive. This means that you get potentially even less money, since less ads are watched and the ones that are watched are more diluted (even if brave currently doesn't take a cut at the moment: At some point they have to pay their developers, too).

Also, why do they pay out in BAT? (other than the fact that they cooperate with "uphold" a crypto-exchange and that they also really really want to jump on the crypto-bandwagon)

Somehow there has to be money going into the system that supports its own existance. If brave had something like a subsciption service or other way to get additional funds into the Network, then it might be more understandable, but even then: Why should I support someone by using BATs instead of paypaling/patreoning/whatever-elseing him the money directly?
It has to actually do with the magnetosphere. It's not about will to put a spike of metal into the ground but that doing so doesn't create an electric ground like it does on Earth because there is not this electromagnetic differential.
Yes. Ammon and I spent many, many hours in research calls prior to this launch, and we'll be doing them on a regular cadence going forward.
Because it is? It isn't quite "ridiculous", as it is somewhat more amusing than that. It certainly isn't "funny", FWIW, as I have absolutely no positive connotations with it... "hilarious" feels like the correct term.
OSM Go! (Android app) allows adding point-based POIs, so mostly stores (if you point to the entrance) and fixtures, not so much path-based things (e.g. crosswalks, which are bound to a path). But it's quite easy in my opinion, and offers several templates. It's open source (on GitHub) even though not on F-Droid, so you have to use Google Play to install it.
It appears that the turn signal switch is to the left of the horn, on the face of the yolk, instead of on the steering column (like every other car I have driven).

I much prefer the turn signals in a fixed location that is mind mapped so I never have to guess their relative position.
Thanks for sharing this link! I actually wrote both this Twitter thread and the blog post you linked.

I don't really get how this is relevant for anyone besides tesla shills at this point. It's the metric that matters the least when it comes to electric vehicles. It makes me think of Samsung 100+ mpx phone camera sensors. People who don't know a thing about the topic drool over big (or small) numbers but it's 99.99% marketing and 0.01% real world use.

It's a whitelisting problem. Yokes have been whitelisted for a while and that's not been revisited (because almost nobody installs them on street cars).

Looks like ransomware criminals are going for the subscription model.
ahh. It didn’t warn me when I was submitting the link. Anyways, this thread should be closed.
I can't help getting annoyed at anything showing "unexpected etymology" that ignores key elements of the structure of words. Fledermaus isn't a cognate with mouse, it's that the German word for bat is "flying mouse" (compare English flying fox for a type of big fruit bat).
No one will argue that opaque identifiers is a sufficient security control but it's (slightly) better than nothing, at least it would've stopped a naive enumeration approach to scrape everything. Don't get distracted by that part, the main reason is many companies wouldn't want to publicly post a dashboard of how many users/entities/widgets they have for all to see but exposing sequential identifiers basically does that.
I can’t even watch tv. The law and order, ncis, swat, seal, whatever - it’s just completely pervasive in society now. Even the BBC productions that used to be thinking and clever Inspectors now always have some gun battle.

Hollywood is as liberal as the NRA wants it.
> free labor though

is it really labor if someone is doing it as a hobby. Its not free if they are getting enjoyment out of it.
I spend more on eating out in a week than that yearly Apple developer fee (not ideal, I know). Cost/benefit. At some point you realize you're going to die and that you can essentially buy more productive time by paying money.
The crime against humanity is not the Lab Leak.

The crime against humanity is the Chinese Communist Party directed cover up, which could have contained the outbreak in Wuhan but did not.
Actually I'm less charitable than "lack of common sense" and chalk it up to hubris – I think what happened is that they couldn't really imagine why someone wouldn't want to accept donations from their viewers/consumers, regardless of source, and so just defaulted to collecting for everyone assuming everyone would love to hop on board the BAT train. This of course turned out not to be the case for various reasons and yes is pretty obvious in hindsight.

But I'm still willing to forgive if I think the course-correction is adequate, which in this case it was.
Hardest part is to find subscribers, from then on the milking process is easy. Leaving the joke aside, does this mean that the systems remained unprotected after the initial ransom was paid or that they continued to threat leaking sensitive data?

Paying the ransom a second time would guarantee nothing. Neither was paying the first time either.
Did they say the Marvel comic book character or just a comic book character? Because American gods was also ported to comics, and even a TV show.

If the attacker isn't paid for the first attack, why would she attack again? She's not doing it for the lulz!

I do agree with you that there should be more visibility for the "silent majority" of firms who operate their businesses responsibly, and therefore don't ever need to pay ransom.

I love cops, they're so funny and silly and always do the right™ thing.

I literally will disgrace the national flag with my own version of it, and you know what? I'll even throw a punisher logo with a thin blue line, because you know, the punisher loved cops as much as I did.

Please prove me wrong, but self-hosting an XMPP server isn't something you can just install and have it work, if your definition includes all the XEPs that you actually end up needing and chat working at a level of user friendliness people expect these days.

I spent over 2 days learning what was out there and installing Prosody myself, followed by giving up and hiring a guy with experience to do it for me, and it took him a solid day (spread out over 3) to get the basic system set up and mostly passing the list of recommended XEPs on the compliance tool at https://compliance.conversations.im/. Then it took another week of fiddling around to get everything mostly dialed in. Then we realized that the XMPP clients on iOS were unusable in a business situation (can't navigate to find old group chats, notifications sometimes don't work, message history sometimes didn't work) and had to move to something else.

Federation is a nice feature, but the rest of it needs to work well enough across iOS/Android/browser to not drive people away.

It is certainly a complex issue. Look at 24 series. Groundbreaking in its own way and its impact on cultural mores cannot be denied ( normalization of torture and so on ). If I wanted to simplify my answer, I would say it goes both ways.

We try to go slower with such documents. E.g., the meeting may start by asking to read the first five sections and discussing them first. The meeting then may naturally be longer than an hour, usually two hours, and still may need a follow up slot.

Nothing in the Amazon style precludes reading ahead of the time, and it is recommended to send the document to the audience ahead of the time. That people often don't is another thing.

I start reading ahead of the time as I read slower (but also read more carefully and thoughtfully).
The tamper resistance is less important if you don't have to enter your PIN. The protocols are secured from the card to the bank - the card has a CPU on board.

From my perspective, Norse mythology was maybe not quite as generally known as the Greek/Roman pantheon (outside of northern Europe anyway). But it was certainly not obscure--at least as far as the Odin, Thor, Loki basics.
Anyone have a sense of how this compares with cython performance wise?
Makes sense to me. From what I've read, it's pretty clear the ransom payment is for a one-time ability to get your data back. It's not advertised as some sort of permanent opt-out.

I don't really think that blog post misses that, I just think that DB migrations functionality is very different from SQL builder functionality, and that blog post is referring to the SQL builder part of this.

FWIW, I do use knex for migrations, but I hate the SQL builder part of it, so most of my migrations are littered with knex.raw statements.

This was discussed at length in this slonik issue, https://github.com/gajus/slonik/issues/42 , with some recommendations for migrations functionality.
A new kind of database: Combining Postgres and Citus tables, feat. foreign keys
What companies want from us, more than anything else, is volume. They want to find as many engineers as possible and make hires. That's the thrust of the economic argument we're trying to make here: our incentives even with companies as our paying clients are to create an engineer-friendly platform.
PHP is a pretty insane language though. I've started using Deno / Typescript for my scripting purposes and it is just a way way better experience than anything else I've used (and I have been searching for ages).

Pretty much every other option falls down in some way:

* Dart, Rust, Node etc. don't let you use just a single file like Python does.

* Python is very slow and it's type annotation system is better than nothing but is still the worst I have used.

* Everything except maybe Go requires you to list dependencies in a separate file, which rules out single-file scripts.

Deno is easily worth the installation effort, especially since it's so easy to install. You'd be really mad to stick with PHP.
Interesting, but are they justified in that fear do you know?

What I mean is, if this is a commonly believed exaggeration then it could just be that in this case the person believing it wasn't the wasp-killer (or would-be-killer) but the cafe owner. Has your friend ever actually been fined for doing it, or did the cafe owner/manager mention having had to deal with it in the past?

Certainly does seem odd that this law would (a) exist; and (b) be intended to stop this sort of behaviour; and (c) actually be enforced!
Interest in this too. Where?

To go nerdily pseudoquantative I would expect roughly a exposure * quality * originality impact. If something introduces a new trope or context and it is widely watched it ends up echoing itself with imitators and callbacks unless discredited. If it is novel but is niche or panned it will introduce the idea to a few and may rarely get snuck in as an obscure reference or inspiration. (See the B-movie influences on major film-makers.) One random example for theory crafting is how Avatar has become infamous for how forgettable a movie it is from lack of originality and poor plot. Forgetability aside, if a myth or concept is already widely believed or known there isn't as much change it can introduce and worse, it risks becoming seen as boring.

There are all sorts of messy cross-correlative details too like big budget works taking fewer risks and being less original owing to the stakes.
I still can't beleive this made it all the way to public review. Like at no point did any of the Tesla designers, engineers, QA folks test this internally and say this is too stupid to work?
