> Our researchers reported hundreds of racist anti-Jewish posts to social media firms using their user reporting tools. 84% were not acted upon.

The same social media cartel still housing 'hate' on their platforms with 84% of anti-semitism posts still on their sites! That's not good enough. Even Khomeini is still there violating the 'sloppy Twitter guidelines'.

Do better.

Yep, I love my TI-89 Titanium. Has a USB connection and programming it in C (via TI-GCC) is easy enough. My Game of Life app just eats whatever pixels it finds on the screen and runs at a decent speed. And my disassembler lets me read the OS code :)

Thankfully, the TI Connect software is 64-bit, otherwise I'd be screwed.
If I could up vote this 100 times I would. I love open source. But 40 years in computing (hardware to apps) has left me with questions. Like, Why could I write an entire Point of Sale system in 64K in 1987 (Apple - The Store Manager) and now you couldn't do it in 64G.
Are we sure that Home Depot has already paid for the items sitting on the shelves? I've seen them do so many returns by marking things Return To Vendor. Margins these days seem to be based around branding/design/quality control rather than sunk production cost, and I'd imagine that retail stores have optimized things so that they aren't assuming the full wholesale-cost risk of theft/damage/clearance.
I don't think that's a fair portrayal. These people are still planning where to travel, how to maintain their hobbies and fitness, how to maintain a social life, and all the other things people normally do. They're just doing it w a change of scenery every so often in mind.

Like you can still workout without a gym.
No, it won't get any easier. When you use "they", you are in fact losing information. If I say "he" or "she", the amount of information I'm portraying is, and always will be, greater than a "neutral" pronoun can convey.
I've really noticed this. Right wing forums seem to have shifted significantly over the last year or 2 from the evangelical support of Israeli state, now increasingly to 'jews are the puppet master' type commentary. Also worryingly the general (and more to do with democrats) call to arms type commentary has been growing too. You like yo hope its a significant minority but it doesn't seem to get pushed down in the forums.

I really dont know how society can deal with this movement if it grows. I suspect the best way is access to quality education + plentiful & reasonably paid jobs when people enter the workforce at all levels. Not trying to be political but I feel this is one of many reasons why things like higher minimum wages are so important and a somewhat egalitarian society as I think much of the discontent ultimately comes from people not happy with their societal status.

I'd be perfectly happy with 35 hours, so that an eight hour workday is actually eight hours and not nine because your lunch break doesn't count.
Well since it's not a direct response advertising campaign, of course no one buys anything "in response to" it.

I did repaint my bedroom with an accent wall that's just about the exact shade of blue that is their 2020 color of the year. Not because Pantone told me to, but maybe because their selection of that color led it to be more prominently placed/advertised when I started picking new paint colors.

Tough to say, and your question is too oversimplistic to make sense as part of the discussion.
> imagine being a small business trying to survive that environment!

I was just at McLendon's yesterday outside Seattle, and while I was waiting to ask an employee a question, over the PA a came a message like, "need help up front. A couple just left the store with a bunch of stolen merchandise." So the dude bolted for the entrance.

It surprised me that the announcement wasn't coded in some way (eg, "code 9 at checkout").

It made me feel quite sad, as McLendon's is pretty awesome, and I'd hate for them to disappear.

I think power tool theft goes beyond retail. If they could use the same Bluetooth tech so it's associated to the owner, it would prevent a lot of jobsite theft and theft from contractor vehicles.
I think this is a problem for the greater .NET community in general. I've participated in dozens of interviews where the "technical" interview is them asking obscure .NET or C# related questions like your some kind of technical glossary. What's worse is these questions are likely related to the one or two instances it's ever used in their entire codebase(s).

The layman definition of 'continent' refers to landmasses, but the geological definition refers to more or less discrete sections of continental crust.
I has to do with the underlying plate right? There are chunks of continental crust floating on the Earth's mantle and we sort of arbitrarily assign continent-ness to them loosely based on history and which plate they're sitting on.
This story is kind of funny: "intelligence" is a game where everybody cheat and everybody say that he doesn't. That's the basic (and maybe only) rule of the game... So when a cheater is caught, the main consequence is that... he has to find another way to cheat!!!

For a long time, Israel is known to be cheating with cyber... and I wouldn't be surprised that France is using NSO services too! Same goes for Palantir...

But it has to be non-public! Showing it publicly is a way to force everybody to find other ways... but won't change the world nor the game. And it's not about "terrorist"... just about "intelligence" and "national security"

Hey, thanks for sharing your views! The way how retail options trading being done currently is indeed very close to compulsive gambling, since retail traders don't get proper tools and cannot evaluate their risks.

But when implemented properly options trading can provide 2 key benefits: boosting potential profits and mitigating associated risks. How else would retail traders be able to preserve their investments in case of a market crash?
As a kid, I was a fan of Golden Delicious, while others criticised it for being too mealy. That wasn't my experience, at least at first. Eventually I encountered increasingly mealy Golden "Delicious", and started favouring other apples. Even the cheapest apples here, like Elstar and Jonagold, are pretty good in comparison.

I wonder if it's the fate of any breed to eventually be bred for looks instead of taste. If you see two apples (or any other fruit or vegetable) of the same name, aren't you more likely to pick the tastier looking one? You can't taste them in the shop, but you can compare by looks. So eventually, that's what they end up being bred for.

I'd expect the only way to protect an apple from that fate, would be to trademark the name, and the rightsholder only licenses the name to apples from cultivars that breed for taste and don't sacrifice taste for looks.

This might be a case where IP rights might be used for good.
> The state of the art is to have a container, fill it with water, and put the car in. You then wait a week or two.

As a firefighter I can confirm this.

What worries me though is, that this might work well for cars, but what about batteries in homes, like Tesla powerwall and alike?

We do not yet have any plans for those, you can't "easily" attach them to a crane and lift them into a container. They are built in basements, garages and more. This will become challenging in the future...
> As for DNSlink, nothing official exists (at least to my knowledge) that can automate updating the DNS entry. You have to cobble something together

Yup, that's what I had to do. Which is also why I've shared my scripts in the post to help others trying to achieve this. It's stil 'cobbled together' (ie no good error handling and stuff) as you said, but (for my blog) it's simple enough to just add the one line to the compile script (Makefile).

> A "nearly Texas-size continent" would be about the same size as Madagascar, and much smaller than Greenland, and we don't call Madagascar or Greenland continents.

IIRC, the definition of "continent" in some contexts is not solely based on size. Continental crust is geologically different than oceanic crust, so if you find a bunch of it sunken underwater, it arguably a continent (geologically).

But it's not like there's a really solid definition for "continent" (e.g. IIRC, Europe is one almost entirely for cultural reasons).

I'm skeptical of this kind of analysis without concrete examples of the kind of content that wasn't removed. Even if you trust the researchers (I personally am not familiar with them), there are legitimate reasons why they might not categorize things the same way as social media platforms.

You need a team that wants to use Clojure. I wrote Clojure professionally for 2 years, and everyone at the company was excited about it and sold on the language. Even after 3-5 years of programming in it. Now, at a different place, we write in a different language, and even though I still love Clojure, I'm not gonna write some project in it, even if Clojure might suit it so well, because I know these people are sold on different language, and I'm not going to preach and I'm not going to make their lives more difficult by having to maintain some obscure codebase.
>It said they included Holocaust denial, and conspiracy theories with false claims about Jews "controlling" governments and banks, or orchestrating world events.

-

>It said that those it tagged as Holocaust denial remained online 80% of the time, while for neo-Nazi content it was 71%.

I'm glad to see they were somewhat specific on the content. On the internet things get muddy and I've been on a forum that was tied to a specific location that was connected to an American politician. For a short while we were inundated with some new accounts there arriving to tell us how outraged they were about this antisemitic politician who as far as I could tell had just criticized Israeli government actions / policies.

It's unfortunate that my first thought was "What what are we talking about exactly here?"

Any old gaming PC with 10G NICs from ebay will do the trick. Install any Linux distro, do some basic config and you're done. Wire speed with the smallest packet size isn't required, you'll probably get at least a few million pps which should be enough.

> I'm talking about almost every news outlet writing "Israel bombed Gaza" and only one being nuanced enough to mention "Israel bombed Gaza after n hundred rockets crossed the border during the last 24 hours."

It goes both ways. I haven't seen the headline "Palestinian militias shell Israeli targets in response to Israel's attempts to ethnically cleanse illegally occupied Palestinian territory" either.

> It took quite a while before someone (and none of the big ones) cared to mention that the latest dispute was over Jewish owned land that was stolen by Jordan during their short management of east Jerusalem and sold to Arabs.

Has anyone of them mentioned the massive irony in Israel returning lands stolen from Jews while at the same time keeping all the land it itself stole from Palestinians?

Next release of OPNSense will be rebased on 'stock' FreeBSD.

Cool initiative!

Can we talk turkey? What's your cost of capture per ton, and how do you scale from one ton to two billion tons?

The average emissions per capita per person in the US is 15 to 20 tons per year. You're building a plant that can capture 1 ton per year.. so 1/15th of a single person. How does this make a dent?

On one hand, I can appreciate that it's unpleasant to be put on the spot. Or being forced to use crappy tools. Nobody likes that.

That said, if a person is being considered for a coding job, wouldn't that person want to demonstrate their coding abilities? I mean, assuming they're actually good at coding?

In interviews, I much prefer a concrete problem to an abstract one, and coding problems are typically far more concrete than most other subjects covered in SW dev interviews.

You're talking about lists in general. His system is built on lists. The TODO list, as he's using the term, means a single list where you dump all the tasks you need to do or might want to do. Without further thought, you end up with a long list of items, no guidance about what you should be doing, and stress because there are incomplete items on your list. If you're not going beyond that, the TODO list is a terrible idea.

Oldest "hack" in modern shoplifting is to swap the contents of the boxes. You open two boxes on the floor, swap tools, get the better tool charged for the lesser-priced tool.

I switched from manjaro to Ubuntu recently after an update made my system unbootable.

> Hate speech doesn't exist, they made up the term to shut you up.
Adding "offensive" to your sentence is a bit disingenuous.
I started working professionally with Clojure earlier this year and this article rings true. I think the article leaves out a fourth downside to running on the JVM: cryptic stack traces. Clojure will often throw Java errors when you do something wrong in Clojure. It's a bit of a pain to reason about what part of your Clojure code this Java error relates to, especially when just starting out.
Isn't the point that by defunding the police that they'd be relegated to spending the resources they have on the functions they're actually trained to do, like the one you mentioned?

"Today, Rep. Mark Takano (D-Calif.) introduced legislation that would reduce the standard workweek from 40 hours to 32 hours by lowering the maximum hours threshold for overtime compensation for non-exempt employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)."

It seems like this would just lead to businesses who employee non-exempt employees hiring more of them but scheduling for fewer hours to stay under the 32 hour threshold. Simple changes to a system as complex as our labor laws are just not going to do the job. We need to look at employee classification as though we were starting from scratch to design a system that makes sense for the realities of today - gig work, remote work, side hustles, etc.
