Errr, not sure if there's a misunderstanding here.

The congress person wasn't holding the options contract. He sold call options to someone else. Which actually means he "owes" stock if the contract is exercised.

The congressman is betting the contract will expire worthless and make money on the premiums when he sold the call options.

Maybe I missed something?

If only this was *really* true.
Sounds great, then we can all gamble in underground rooms, with not only dramatically worse odds but for extra excitement, a risk of armed robbery!
> Serge Aleynikov

IIRC, he saw some open source code used in Goldman Sachs, believed that they should be open (whether right or wrong, I don't know), and uploaded it public. Right? I remember HN discussion from years ago.

I don't think his story is related to developers' side projects. If you work for Company X and knowingly upload some of its internal repository to a public place, of course you're going to be fired. Would you expect anything else?

I have a USB 2 external HDD enclosure that will drop off the bus if it is connected to a USB 3 port and under any respectable load. Only workaround I know of is to connect it to a USB port while giving the logo a stern, backwards-compatible glare.

I'm certain that this is a problem with the drive firmware or USB controller and not Linux per se.

I use several USB storage devices, enclosures on Linux everyday including using separate USB ssd caches.

Can you check with your storage device managing software on Windows on whether it has the sleep option or spin down set? I remember seeing one in the Seagate SW on mac although it has an OS level option to put HDD to sleep when not in use.

If that doesn't work you can try using hdparm or sdparm to modify the power management and spin down timer. If everything else fails then disable USB autosuspend in the kernel boot option.
>The ratio of humans to dogs in Tel Aviv-Yafo is one of the highest in the world, with one in every 11 people in the area owning a dog.

So... the problem would be worse in nearby cities? Or Tel Aviv is especially bad? They're rolling this out where they're the fewest dog owners, so it's easier? They don't say. The linked article is unrelated. Strange.
At least in the US, it’s seen as not being able to be individualistic and make it on your own. There’s a very high value to being able to not be reliant on anyone - literally anyone or anything. Government handouts to family support to even the help of friends - there’s a strong desire to be able to do everything by yourself.

If your parents helped you get your house, it’s not only a sign of likely coming from a privileged background (not many households in the US can just give their kids a downpayment on a house…) but it’s also a sign that you couldn’t even do what others have managed on their own. As many people do it without the bank of mom and dad and do it without having come from a background of privilege - it doesn’t look good.

Some will rationalize it and talk about keeping money in the family or what not - but most Americans see it from a mile away as somewhat shameful or regrettable. Keeping money in the family is also somewhat shameful in itself as it is something typically very privileged people do and it is seen as keeping the money out of the rest of us. (Creating royal families and a class of nobility essentially)
Swedish government asked Google to remove YouTube news channels that was critical of the Swedish state owned media, and Google did.

I think we are way past the illusion of democracy and governments protecting their people at this point.
I haven't done serious photography in years, but my guess is that the market isn't quite as big as the parent suspects (the people who want it aren't willing the pay). There's a giant graveyard of push-button photo backup sites targeting photographers. Sadly, I would be suspicious of using any service (since it would mean uploading 100s of gigs of images for the kinds of people who would use it) since they shut down so often.

I've never heard of Photoshelter, but it sounds like you upload high-resolution final images that are ready to view and print--it doesn't seem all that different from Smugmug or Flickr. Most photographers want to archive the source files and edits (project files). I see you can technically upload RAW files, but unless that integrates very well with your photo management software, I'm not sure if it's of much use. Lightroom databases can get relatively large since it includes caches and thumbnails. So you'd need a separate system for backing up those that ties it back to the RAW files.

Dropbox might work, but I'm not sure how approachable "smart sync" is and their pricing tiers don't seem like a great fit.

My guess is a well-loved open source project that wraps around b2 or AWS might be the best fit. But, honestly, a pile of hard drives will probably win out. You make your investment upfront and it's a simple enough mental-model. Unfortunately, they tend to die and with large data sizes photographers don't always go for redundancy.

Build your own CRM with nocode tools
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'm an embedded linux person and view sphere as a curiosity. Presumably if you have root access to the device you can load anything you want (as long as you can build a cross compilation toolchain somewhere). But yeah... scanning their docs a bit, it looks like they're trying to build on top and abstract away the linux system as much as possible. It's probably easier to work with the grain instead of against it--if their tooling isn't up to what you need, look at buildroot, yocto/openembedded, etc.

Here's the production charts. We had 1.83 billion bushels last year and 1.75 billion this year.

Its only Spring Wheat which was affected but Winter Wheat is at all time highs. See this chart, for example:

https://www.nass.usda.gov/Charts_and_Maps/Field_Crops/swyld....

2021 is anamolously bad for spring wheat. 2018 through 2020 were record high years for spring wheat on the contrary. Trend for yield is up and to the right. Weather disasters happen, like the droughts we had in the 1930s that caused the Dust Bowl. At any rate, don't forget to zoom out.

I'm in formation for ordained ministry in a Christian tradition, and something that's really emphasised is the need to say the 'Daily office' – two short services at the beginning and end of the day. Ideally with other people, but in the end you often being alone.

It felt like busy work at the start, but it's a surprisingly powerful way of focussing the day upon a particular intention – in my case, putting everything I do in the day into the context of my religious tradition.

Personally I've always struggled with habits and routine, but I've now got quite a powerful experience of what persistence can do, with a fairly small commitment in time.
from my understanding it was more nuanced than that - the code was already open source but he then made some changes to the source and wanted to keep those changes. Obviously
this is pretty bad too, but eventually all charges were dropped and this might have just been because how aggressive the plaintiffs and the FBI goons were in pursuing this guy, especially after considering the accusations of "stealing code" that is so dangerous it could manipulate the fabric of financial markets.

In any case, I just pulled up my GS NDA and I probably shouldn't comment any further.

Funny side note though: GS realtime risk/lazily loaded object graph database is called SecDB, and @saleyn has a repo on GitHub called secdb which has to do with having an efficient data store for financial data... I guess he was feeling invulnerable after getting off of the previous charges haha

> A utilitarian perspective is probably more productive than worrying about who has the moral high ground in any case.

While I agree with this, the OP was commenting about how their friends turn away when the issue is brought up, and comparing how OP reacts to similar crimes about their own country. So, that’s a point I felt warranted to discuss.

More generally, historically, colonization has always been about “taming the savages” and “teaching them (Western) morality”. Slavery and exploitation went hand in hand with this mindset.
Yes, it sounds more like a dystopian fascist aphorism rather than a nugget of wisdom.
I've never seen anything like it in Switzerland (and neighboring countries). From what I saw, the process here seems to be: first, let the hay dry on the ground by itself for a bit, then group it along "rows" that make essentially a stripe pattern on the field, and then make hay "balls" or "bricks" out of that. But maybe that's only because I've never seen anyone do it the old way?
I believe if you're honest with yourself and follow the secular lines of reasoning you will arrive at deism pretty easily

I think atheists are just people who refuse to accept the natural conclusions.

So I don't see any need to hide your atheism really. We're all prone to folly, pride and irrationality and inconclusive thinking.

Honestly, if an atheist came to my Church and was open about it, that's fine with me. I confess doubt all the time too... It's not like I'm perfect. If the number of times my atheist friends have sincerely prayed before a big exam are any indication, I'd think most atheists have periods of extreme fervor.

But, when I've been more of an atheist, I've still found amazing value in religion, so I guess I'm probably just weird.
>Dr. Lewontin and his co-workers determined that the great bulk of human genetic variability, roughly 85 percent, could be found within a population of, say, Asians or Africans, while just 15 percent of the diversity might distinguish Asians from Africans from Caucasians.

>He was no fan of the massive federal Human Genome Project, which set out to map the entire sequence of human DNA

As a layman, I am baffled by how one would asses the genetic difference between two individuals without a full sequence of each of their respective DNA. The first quotation above has the disclaimer, "Using what would now count as relatively crude genetic markers like blood groups, but pulling from a significant global database", but does this mean that what they "determined" was not actually demonstrated?
This may not be directly related to your workflow, but in macOS there's a preference to delete items that have been in Trash after 30 days. If you're more proactive about putting stuff in the Trash (and less proactive about emptying it), that (plus backups) gives a similar behavior. My wife doesn't ever empty her Trash and previously I had written a script that did it.
> I'm under the impression that Chris-as-singular-historical-figure is accepted based on lighter evidence than we require for other historical figures.

You're under a false impression, and are spreading a myth [0][1]. In fact, your claim is exactly backwards: Certain laypeople (you seem to be among them) demand more evidence for the historicity of Jesus than for other famous people of antiquity.

> And that the Bible was mostly written hundreds of years after Jesus supposedly existed.

First, this is complete nonsense, given that ~77% of the Bible is the Old Testament, whose books have been dated to centuries BCE [1].

Second, if we charitably reinterpret your comment as referring to the New Testament, it is also false. The Book of Revelation is generally accepted by traditional scholarship to have been written during the reign of Domitian (81–96 CE) [1]. A handful (3-4) of other books are dated to 110 CE at most.

HTTPS is not secure if someone has a root cert and wastes energy, if you need encryption you should roll your own.

I used https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2289 for login which is simpler and uses less energy than public/private key encryption and quantum safe out of the box.

Google of course has a root cert and is making sure less people can make web sites by building more protocol extensions that the average joe can afford to keep up with.

Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System
I am not sure that is true. As an outside observer of the US I see a lot of highly trained, potentially dangerous veterans who came home to a pile of broken promises with broken psyches and sometimes broken bodies. There are now decades worth of these guys milling around in a society awash with firearms and blitzed with misinformation. It's a powderkeg that might just go off unexpectedly. Of course there are side effects to those middle east adventures.
I'm a pro-photographer and work in IT as well. I have run into this storage problem on more occassions than I can poke a stick at. I've seen first hand accounts like the one linked, where people acquire hard drive after hard drive with no end in sight. But the problem isn't limited to just photographers, it's anyone who acquires data of any type.

However that being said, I use a combination of NAS of which I have about 40TB of pure photos (yes a lot of images). I've been dabbling with LTO to backup images, but you need to know what you are doing with tape. It's not a simple drop type opperation as a hard drive is. You can get a lot of shoeshining if you don't do things properly.

So for long term easy access, I recommend to others to look into 4-Bay NAS units (at a minimum) for future flexibility. QNAP or Synology to aid the config and use a blob storage service to store the data (if upload speed permits). I used to use Backblaze but even with basic B2 storage, I found it more expensive than Google Cloud storage (coldline).

But with anything your use case, preparedness to learn and financial situation will dictate what you end up doing.
So using "foreign" as a pejorative is cool as long as the foreigners are Americans?

Companies can only provide products and services to willing customers. To restrict them is to restrict the choices of your own people to choose products they prefer. So what you're really arguing for is the majority in a country restricting the freedom of a minority in that same country.

I guess for me it seems different to normal public health stuff because of the speed - but perhaps your second world war figure is exactly what I am getting at. COVID is on the same scale as the UK's losses in the second world war - it's worse than the blitz, for example, but less deadly than the entire british involvement. The second world war caused seismic political and cultural changes in the UK. It's probably the most significant moment in the UK's history since the napoleonic wars.

Now, I don't think casualty figures alone provoke the kind of reassessment and realignment that made WW2 such a watershed, but honestly, I think they probably should.

I have a bad news for you: youtube tailors their recommendations to each person. I know! It is difficult to belive.

Sarcasm aside I don’t know who this Mark person is. Never heard of him, never seen a video from him. And I’m quite okay with that. If you were to ask me what is trending on youtube I would tell you it is woodworking videos, zany snippets from musicals, and people discussing how a windpowered car can travel faster than the wind. But I also know that that tells more about my media habbits than youtube itself so I don’t generalise from this to everyone.
Scaleway.com C14 cold archive is $2/TB/month with multi-hour retrieval time, like AWS Glacier. Retrieval uploads to a normal S3 object store that costs more but you don't have to leave it there long. Outbound bandwidth from the S3 store is .01/GB but alternatively I think you can retrieve through a Scaleway hourly VPS and then the bandwidth is essentially free.
Without proper sorting and ordering options this is rather useless.

> Google and Microsoft are used by billions, why not eInk, is the question we're asking.

I don't understand the comparison between a search engine, an OS , and a niche low power display component. I had brought up Google and Microsoft as examples to prove that holding many many patents is not an unusual thing for companies to do. Also, who is "we"? The context I was originally responding to was the insinuation that eInk or its partners or some unknown consortium of patent poolers (alleged above) was an evil patent troll that was blocking progress in the display industry and was going to prevent this electrochromic nanostructure display from being successful.

This kind of analysis was all the rage in the 1970's, when articles were written about how the type of car you drove advertised your inner sexual feelings and how he Edsel failed because the front grill looked like a vagina.

This might be somewhat accurate for people over 35, but it doesn't sound like any younger people I know. The complexities of the younger generations raised on the internet is something new and difficult to pin down.

The internet allows a person to escape the moderating influence of peer pressure and social norms by allowing one to anonymously be part of many different social groups simultaneously and be a different person in each one. There is no friction in mixing and matching your tribes, allowing a fluidity of identity that carries over into real life. I don't think this is captured by the article.

If you can get root on any internet connected machine for instance you wouldn't attack a data center.

(Obviously they get "hit" all the time, most the data being ransomed probably sits encrypted in a data center, along with REvils house possibly also a data center, currently their onion site being down means their data center maybe has been hacked by a 3LA)
