the question is not which kind of speech do we want to allow, but who gets to decide that. we don't want government to decide that because its decision is absolute and leaves no room for escape, hence the laws for free speech, but the german court effectively argues that on a platform as dominant as youtube, censorship has the same impact as government censorship and should therefore be treated the same.
I don't think that's true, at least about terraform. I see[1] version 1.0.2 updated 8 days ago (same day it was released).

The characterization of Rhapsody being "cancelled" and Mac OS X just being MacOS on a Mach Kernel is rather odd. In my recollection, the original Rhapsody plan was essentially Cocoa apps (with a NeXTStep-like look) + the Classic emulator. What the change of plans to Mac OS X did was add "Carbon" to the equation (i.e. native MacOS APIs in the unix environment), and give the whole thing a facelift.

From the point of a developer, it could be considered a major departure in that instead of a complete rewrite, apps could also become native with more modest changes. But that does not mean that the Rhapsody path was abolished — far from it.

Also weird how it mismatches on the search for "San Francisco" of all places. Looks like it splits the terms on spaces rather than, say, commas, and then matches any of those, so "york rio" will show New York and Rio de Janeiro

Even weirder is that it replaces commas with spaces before splitting the string, so "york,rio" has the same result

From speaking with several farmers in different regions of the US - having unplanned weather extremes has caused loss of many crops and the loss is growing every year. If there wasnt so much development effort spent on making gmo seeds that can withstand more extreme climate conditions we would be at a much worse place. We would literally be without some major crops. Sadly the major brunt of such a disaster would affect farmers in regions of the US that believes the least in fighting against climate change

> The varieties of wheat hit hard by the drought and the heat in those states are what are known as soft white, and it’s the only place in the U.S. that grows this kind of wheat. Soft white wheat is good for pastries and the like because of its low protein content, which makes it less stretchy than traditional flour. But wheat kernels in the Pacific Northwest are shriveling due to the heat and the drought, upping their protein content—and meaning that a lot of the crop that will be harvested won’t be suitable for the soft wheat market.

Super interesting... The heat is changing the types of products we can make from the wheat harvested
I’m not sure this is true. Humans were unable to beat the bot when playing by the rules the bot trained on. The bot was only trained with a very specific hero pool, and special circumstances such as having a courier for each hero (highly unusual in competitive dota; basically unheard of) which it used to ferry health potions to itself constantly. The humans couldn't deal with this constant source of health regeneration.

It was only after the hero pool was expanded to additional heroes that the humans were able to win. But this is like losing because 86 new heroes were just released that day; it would be unfair, to say the least, if you had to face heroes you knew nothing about, especially when your opponents were experts.

OpenAI gave up working on it after they had proven that "if you spend $X amount of money, you can win at whatever rules you decide." Unfortunately the cost of $X is very high for this method, because it requires thousands (tens of thousands?) of simulations, each of which need to happen in real time on an actual dota client (i.e. it's running the game). The game rules also change continuously with new patch releases, so the training quickly becomes more or less obsolete, especially if the bot overfits on a particular ruleset.

That doesn't change that the bot can overfit on a specific ruleset, which I think is a positive statement: it's quite remarkable, really, that it's possible at all.
As a former professional photographer, and still a friend of many, I'm not convinced that it's a huge market. Actual profitable full-time professional photographers who can afford to buy equipment is a small and shrinking population. You could probably sell it to advanced amateurs too (who often spend MORE on equipment than real pros), but I still don't know if it's a large enough market to reach economies of scale and make the price reasonable.

Ransomware requires a few preconditions in order to do real damage.

Mostly those all boil down to:

1. Shit-to-no backup solution in place.
2. Poor segmentation from a network/identity/privilege perspective.

Datacenters usually have this kind of stuff down pretty well or they don't stay in business very long.

Additionally, traditional ransomware attacks start as client-side attacks[phishing/fake search engine results promising app updates/etc]. This kind of attack works way better against Mary Sue in accounting or Chuck in sales but the scenario of Datacenter admins checking their Gmail on admin workstations or servers is hopefully insanely rare or never.

> Poker isn't necessarily considered gambling

Yes it is.

> It is one reason why some places, like California, have poker rooms.

No, that's because some instances of gambling involving betting against other players are sometimes selectively regulated differently than betting against the house. Its the same reason some places, like, again, California, that prohibit casino gambling allow parimutuel betting on horse races.
Saginaw is Chinese owned and has a interesting history:

"GM in 1999 spun off its parts group as Delphi Automotive including Saginaw Steering. Saginaw Division was renamed Delphi Steering"

"With Delphi entering a lengthy bankruptcy proceeding, GM purchased Delphi Steering through their subsidiary, GM Global Steering Holdings LLC, in 2009 and renamed the company, Nexteer Automotive"

"Nexteer was acquired by Pacific Century Motors on November 29, 2010"

"Originally, Pacific Century was a subsidiary of E-town, the Beijing municipal government's investment company, and Tempo Group, a Chinese car component manufacturer."

"In March 2011, AVIC Automobile Industry Holding Co., a Chinese state-owned parts manufacturer, purchased a 51 percent interest in Pacific Century Motors."

Inasmuch as "multi planetary" means multiple _self supporting_ planetary settlements (and otherwise, what's the point?), that seems to be an entirely unrealistic goal for the foreseeable future, so, by definition, there cannot really be a "critical path" to such a goal.

The color of the eggs has nothing to do with flavor. It is a product of the breed of hen. And I grew up around all types of heritage breed organic chickens with white, brown, and even green eggs and can tell no difference between the flavor of their eggs and store bought eggs. And I consider myself a bit of a foodie.

There was a good writeup in serious eats and they found that in blind taste tests, no one could tell the difference. But when people could see what they were eating, they preferred the fresh eggs because they tended to have brighter orange yolks.

Putting a bit of orange food coloring in the store bought eggs effectively squashed the difference.

Well, I wouldn't think that someone doing his job and taking a contrary business position would be worth calling out as "a fool" in the introduction of the minutes of the meeting.

I'm doing this right now, and at about Month Four I was happy to find myself "talking" in the new language, although the conversations would probably be cringeworthy to anyone but my teachers.

It's made me pretty optimistic about learning new languages in general, and I'm 50 so the brain isn't exactly a sponge anymore. More like a sieve.
Is it at all possible that this kind of trading can be used to conceal "lucky outcomes" when needed and have a plausible deniability?

For example, is there no way that the call options could be purchased on the other side by a friendly party that is a participant in the game?

Does the market absolutely prevent this kind of thing from happening? If not, could this a be way that senators (from both parties of course!) could conceal their insider trading?
This is the real answer IMO.

Thanks to machine learning, if you didn't think you wanted to tag waterfalls at the time of capture, it would still let you find them (I have 12 waterfall photos).
