The interesting aspect of it is that the only reason you and me discuss it is because of Apple's (natural) reaction to a camera backdoor install in their public computers.

We're not exactly caring about the artistic value of it, but the author might get positive returns on this project (fame, money, inspiration) only because it's a little bit wrong (maybe a little bit legal still).

If the core artistic value was of concern, which is to show people what they look like while talking on a computer, which the author confessed was fine with consent since he himself noticed it while he knew he was filming himself, then we d probably brush it of "yeah right sure, like when we read" and basta.

It's like the surrounding story is of more interest than the art piece and I think that's where the author should dig next time: he should find something that both strike by its artistic value while being made in interesting circumstances, to reach optimal value for us and him and lasting fame !

I think it says a lot also about the state of art these days where the work tends to be secondary to the circumstances because it's easier to generate quick loudness while hard to generate a long lasting hum like the ancients could with technique. But it's an impressive attempt nonetheless ! I think he's on to something with using software techniques.
It goes beyond that, I think. As you're planning what to write, you come up with shorthand because it's hard to keep up with a speaker by hand. Summarizing requires much more active listening, analysis, and synthesis. There's a lot more going on in your brain than when typing.
Channel Z is an OK song on an otherwise kind of dreadful album, and that's where I get off the B-52s train. It's OK for bands to stop being good! Try to make a whole album worth of good post-Monster REM songs!

Exactly, I didn't know about that case but it seems like the rules were presented up front. I think it would only take a few alterations of the deal to panic a smart currency.... And maybe that's why governments won't actually mess with it.
Lost Friendships Break Hearts and Nations
The whole motivation of this article is that if you "have a task poorly suited to Bash" your options are either abandon bash or write a custom Bash builtin. This is very much not true.

The most common way to extend bash is to write a function which generates bash code, and then eval the results of this functions. This is how ssh-agent injects keys in the current session. This is how openwrt implements its configuration system. And so on.

For the ini parsing specifically, one would write "ini2bash" tool which reads ini file, and prints out bash commands to set the variables. Then in the code, you'd do "eval $(ini2bash file.ini)" and get all your variables.

This has a ton of upsides: works with any bash version; can use your favorite language; easy to debug; your shell won't start segfaulting if you upgrade it and forget to rebuild the plugin; the code can be reused if you switch to a different language. The main downside is it needs an extra fork and that it cannot access un-exported variables, but a lot of times this is acceptable.
Consider

- how much money you are ready to spend on the new guy.
- how long he and you expect to work together. I.e you want some one for next couple of years to build and setup everything, do you expect him grow and mature with you .
- CTO is a glorified role in a start up especially early on. At this point you are more likely to need a hands on senior dev who has strong product sense and can run a team and ready to gets hands dirty on code.

The role will drastically change in a couple years if your startup grows. The skills required are vastly different when it 20-30 member team and it changes again at 150-200 .

There are few people who will fit at all stages. Either they should be able to grow or be able to step down few roles today.

So plan accordingly for the new hires to replace when skills don't fit with what equity you would give today and later on etc.

On skills you should consider today somebody who knows the stack , is ready to code, has architecture vision , can be quick and dirty if required but prefers to keep the code clean as possible and is flexible on the resources you are able to give, loves building products.
HOAT is the additives, it's still ethylene glycol based.

After a bit of investigation, I came across this Yahoo information: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/generate-manage-third-party-passwo...

Yahoo now requires that you general a one-time use password for each unique client. Once I created that one-time password and used the Manual way of adding an account, I was able to successfully add Yahoo to my accounts. May I suggest that you add an FAQ about this to your FAQ page. And if you add Yahoo as one of your Account Providers, perhaps a link to the FAQ could be included with the icon for Yahoo. Or something like that.
Similar to "200 OK", where the number is the important part and the text is just an informative description?
The 30-Second Approach to Direct Indexing
Thanks for the ref. I agree with you on the harmfulness in the cases referenced by this. Persistent / chronic use of marijuana can lead to developmental problems.

That said, this is true of many other substances as well. Childhood obesity and alcohol abuse also cause developmental issues, and perhaps these should all be age-restricted (sale of sugary foods in the case of childhood obesity).

However, I would not forbid any adult the right to do what they want with their body as long as they do not infringe on the rights of others. If someone wants to ruin their life with drug abuse, while pitiable, it is their option. This has some negative externalities but, in my opinion, it is better than both government restrictions on personal freedom and the black market that has developed around illegal drugs.

2027: automakers gradually stop selling cars and transition to a lease-only "subscription" model.
Firstly, did you read the article, this isn't a replacement part, its a hack job, look at the pictures, read what they did, this isn't about 3rd party part, this is a service, and a poor one.

Additionally, the terms of your lease, dictate how maintenance is done, and if third party parts are allowed.

Magnuson-Moss act is likely what you are talking about, which wouldn't apply here, firstly because it only applies to warranty claims, and voiding warranties it wouldn't play a role here, additionally because Tesla owns the car, this person is just renting it it has no barring.
It is a joke on misspelling of “lose”.

“Loose the right to repair” means to make the right to repair loose, opposite of tight.

“Lose the right to repair” means to make the right to repair being lost.
Keep in mind that most of that comes from MHD simulation and MHD simulation are well known in the community to get details of reconnection quite wrong [1]. So until somebody has confirmed that with particle-in-cell simulations, hybrid simulations with a good Ohms law or an experimental device, take all performance numbers with a big grain of salt.

Oh an another thing: Very high velocity exhaust gives you large I_sp, so good efficiency in the use of the working gas that you are exhausting to get delta-v. But high exhaust velocity also implies that you need A LOT of (electrical) energy to do that. (Since power requirements scale as P = 0.5 * m/dt * v_ex^2, but thrust only goes up linearly, i.e. F = m/dt * v_ex.)

I agree with the pearl clutching part.

Unless Tesla can state exactly how this fix is inferior to it's original design.

Putting a brass nipple in a plastic pipe is a tried and tested process. The stated pressure is 2 psi, or max 5 psi during testing. 5 psi is about 3.5 meters of water column. So the pressure is equivalent to what you get in your home.

The piping is essentially house plumbing level stuff.
> Most people's answer is going to be along the lines of "sure I'll take a free battery but if the hose barb is functionally equivalent and gets me my car a week sooner than it'll depend on how badly I want the car back"

No. That solution might be acceptable if the alternative is spending 15k$, but if money is not a factor, I bet anyone would take a manufacturer approved replacement over "some screwed in thingy that's probably within temperature range" just to get out of your rental a week early.
No, you're wrong. You can fix it for $700 today (why would anyone care?) but you can't fuck up a car that's under manufacturer's warranty and expect the manufacturer to honor the warranty, which is what this socialistic movement is about.

And stop calling it right to repair - it's a made up right, like right to healthcare. It does not exist.

> the culture/society is somehow representable by what toys it makes for it's kids.

Can you give some examples?

I've spent the last 7 years doing a lot of travelling around Asia, India, and Europe. I've observed quite the opposite, so I'm curious to know what you've seen that I've missed.

Currently I live in Vietnam and I polled a couple of Vietnamese people who are sitting with me about what their children play with (it turned into a really interesting breakfast conversation, so thanks!).

Their answers:

Boys play with cars, water guns, toy soldiers, and such. Girls play with dolls, toy kitchens, toy houses. Both play with modeling clay, coloring pens etc. (or Lego if the parents are progressive). Boys role play as soldiers, girls as princesses. Both role play as things like shopkeepers. This also includes data from people's childhoods 30 year's ago so I don't think it's a sign of Westernization. The main difference over the past 30 years is more plastic (of course) and that many people are much richer now. The main difference I've seen is that electric bikes for older children/teens are very popular here (I think bikes are a tool rather than a toy though).

This seems very similar to what children in Europe play with, and ties in with my observations in other countries. But of course, even a lifetime of travel would only give me insight into a fraction of cultures so more info is welcome.

The big exception is in remote areas in the countryside where people are very poor and can't afford many toys.
Yes! Highly recommended. Took about two days for a load to show up, then the guy asked if I would like a free load of firewood too.
The Flaming Lips hit... weird.

When I first heard Yoshimi I treated it like a whimsical story but then one day I heard it as an escapist fantasy of a child in distress talking about their savior and I got weepy. Is that how you're supposed to interpret the song? It doesn't matter. It hits you how it hits you.

Wayne Coyne's voice is awful. He has a terrible singing voice. And yet you don't care because it makes some devastatingly beautiful songs like Do You Realize.

I can't listen to The Flaming Lips for more than a few days at a time. Prolonged exposure makes me tired and heavy. But then, after a few months have gone by, I am drawn back to it like a moth to the light.
Hold on for a minute. I dearly hope Tesla battery packs have enough smarts in them that shuts charging down when overheating. There must be fifty ways to set your battery pack on fire...
Why would that be? If I'm leasing a vehicle, not only does the manufacturer need to earn back the cost of manufacturing plus some margin, they also need to earn back the cost of administrating a lease and the cost of selling the car again later (with depreciation). They're not going to cover those extra costs for free, they're going to pass them on to the consumer. So how can leasing a vehicle possibly work out in the consumer's favor?
A key element of the project was their custom Sugar Linux desktop environment which would have wireless collaboration and data sharing as a central feature, and a suite of custom educational software to run in that environment. The OLPC Foundation never fully delivered on that promise -- the software they shipped was buggy and incomplete, with few applications available and many of the promised features stubbed out or completely absent. The only real saving grace was that their desktop environment included wrappers for Firefox and OpenOffice, and that was enough to make the systems useful to students.

The OLPC Foundation went on to create a series of increasingly ridiculous design renders of future projects -- dual-screen laptops, tablets with solar cells on the back, ultra-thin tablets... none of these were manufactured. Most of them weren't even technologically feasible!

The OLPC project did jump-start interest in ultralight laptops, though, and probably led to the development of early netbooks like the Eee PC. So there's that.
While it doesn't always work out, in the long run it works out well often enough to pay for the losses.
Kind of bad faith to throw rent in there, of course right to repair doesn't mean you have the right to repair rented things.

Thanks for the response and clarification. What's the best way to discover papers on hypothetical US CBDCs? I've seen one international paper and one on US FedAccounts.

08 June 2021, "Central bank digital currency: the quest for minimally invasive technology", https://www.bis.org/publ/work948.htm

> Almost 50 central banks have already launched designs for central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) or prototypes ... The paper discusses ... what they imply for the financial system and the central bank of the future. It sets out the requirements for a “minimally invasive” CBDC design ... digital banknotes that run on “intermediated” or “hybrid” CBDC architectures show promise. Supported with technology to facilitate record-keeping by private sector entities of direct claims on the central bank, their economic design should emphasise the use of the CBDC as medium of exchange.

28 Jan 2021, "FedAccounts: Digital Dollars", https://www.gwlr.org/fedaccounts-digital-dollars/

> Congress should authorize the Federal Reserve to give everyone—individuals, businesses, and institutions—the option to maintain accounts at the central bank. We call these accounts FedAccounts. Unlike the CBDC approaches currently under discussion, which would use complicated and inefficient distributed ledger technology and be walled off from the existing system of money and payments, FedAccounts would be seamlessly interoperable with the mainstream payment system, relying on technologies that the Federal Reserve has used for decades.

Mean reversion and market volatility in time series data
It's really unfortunate that the first injection by itself is not hugely effective against the delta variant, and the delta variant is more severe than previous variants.

I'd wait until a few weeks after the second injection before considering a person to be in the reasonably safe zone from death, if they were not young enough to be in the reasonably safe zone already.

I agree that the government is taking the view that the rates are low enough in aggregate. The messaging always focuses on the aggregate number as though that's all that matters.

However when seen from the point of view of an individual who is in the wrong cohort, the rates are not low enough unfortunately. And such people are directly affected by how everyone else behaves.

A large, planned rise in infectious other people, misleading impressions due to exponential curves and time lags, elimination of safety measures at work and the right to avoid the workplace, and elimination of safety measures on public transport, are not good for people in the wrong cohort.

It might be ok if those still at significant risk could stay at home. But they are also losing the right to insist on working at home when possible.
I would bet a lawyer would tell you not plug a third party phone into the AT&T phone system either in case you damaged it, as AT&T disingenuously argued would happen.
Yeah I've read Sapiens and it's a fair speculation, but I've seen no real evidence to this point. Lot of other reasons Homo Sapiens^2 coulda been good at killing off Homo Sapiens^1.
I think the "Beowulf" name (the name of the first well known computer cluster) was mostly a Slashdot meme. As Slashdot faded, so did the name "Beowulf".

Does this account just spew text? All of your prior comments are a mix of word soup and technical jargon.
"That a therapeutic drug is explosive..." seems sensationalistic. Reminds me of when people say things like "x contains chemicals used in x!". What's the practical problem with this?
>You're still avoiding taking all the blame by making excuses and being super defensive

Since you are so concerned about automobile safety, do you have any suggestion on how to get a taxi/Uber/Lyft/etc driver who keeps at least one hand firmly grasping the steering wheel at all times the car is in motion?
No, actually I can't recognize most characters isolated unless they appear in a sentence. You can see the same issue with writing code. I can read 10 books on writing Rust code, but until I actually undertake some projects and write some real code in an unforgiving environment, I'm not gonna learn as well.

The issue with writing characters isn't writing individual characters. It's writing whole sentences, and then facing the inevitable error feedback from others. I get this with Pinyin too because Pinyin autocomplete often inserts the wrong character and I don't notice until it's too late, but that's just it: pinyin autocomplete kind of promotes laziness. 90% of the time it's correct, and so I don't spend a lot of time proof reading it. I have just found hand-writing slows everything down and the muscle memory aids in remembering.
What I want to know is what steps can be taken to re-engineer incentives so that the major players in agriculture are pushing for regenerative agriculture and organic farming in their financial and political strategies.
Is Java really memory safe in the face of races? The case I'm thinking about is this:

Shared state:

ArrayList A with intial buffer B and length L

Thread 1:

Grows A and replaces B with buffer C, length with M

Thread 2:

(Earlier loaded B into a register)

Code says write to A[M-1]. JVM checks M-1 against M but uses B as it was already stored in a register. Now you have a buffer overflow.

Except, people on this thread seem to think this is impossible. How does Java prevent this?
> And at one point they were even going to have a handcrank on the thing so you could charge the laptop by hand if necessary.

They had to drop that feature when they realized that 1) there was no way to anchor the dynamo into the laptop chassis without making the laptop substantially larger, and 2) a child couldn't provide enough power to charge the laptop at a useful rate. They made some external dynamos, but I don't think those were widely used either (again, too slow to be useful).

> It even had a view source button on the keyboard!

And it didn't do anything. The button was baked into the hardware before the software was written. There were a couple of other nonfunctional buttons on the keyboard.

There was, at one point, even a proposal to include a disassembler in Sugar to let students reverse-engineer the (closed-source) wireless card firmware. I don't think that one ever got off the ground.
If I right-click on an email message to delete it, the right-click menu says "Remove". If I right-click on a Group (still trying to understand how Groups work!), it says Delete. They are both using the same icon. Is that by design or should they both say "Delete". I'm not used to using "Remove" to delete an email message. But if that's not a true delete function, then perhaps the use of Remove is more appropriate. It just seems to me they should both be Delete. Picky, I know!
The act was signed in 1996 and prosecution was suspended before any suit was over. Lawsuit have started in 2019 which are still ongoing.

This law has had a chilling effect ever since it was signed. It's sélective enforcement makes it worse, not better, as it allows the USG to privately threaten entities whenever most convenient.

It's not even the only way that secondary sanctions can be exacted. The US can also effect force on foreign corporations by threatening to sanction their US suppliers.
-O0 doesn't necessarily change this. After all, optimizations aren't allowed to violate the spec (if they do, they're buggy). So any code that can be output by an optimizing compiler could (in principle) be output by a non-optimizing compiler.
I'll give you a "hidden geometric structure".

That's a pretty typical construction for a cradle tube frame. A Triumph Tiger 800 is not a high performance bike. Cradle frames are cheap, the bikes that have bolted on subframes typically have backbone frames and use the engines as stressed members. Also that subframe attachment is an adjustment point for fine-tuning rider position.

seems to me like Micro-LED is the long-term future display tech of choice.

I believe it is like OLED but without the "organic" bit, and thus without most degredation and burn-in concerns. just teeny tiny LEDs that make up the display. no backlight, no dimming zones, no shortcuts.
I walked through doing this with my AS (AS398328) in the US (ARIN), both for fun and for security research. Happy to chat with anyone who wants to go through the process, it was probably $1-2k in total for ARIN fees to get the AS and v4/v6 space. Real transit is a lot worse though.
