I guess that I have a smart home albeit a cheap version. I have used sonoff smart switches to give me remote control of my flat's electric radiators. This has given me extra control over their schedules than available using their in-built interfaces. Plus I can turn them on remotely if I am unexpectedly coming home so the flat is warm when I get back.

I live in France and the radiators have a control pin that accepts various 230V AC waveforms (!) to set different functions but luckily simply on/off can be used to toggle between the radiators' high and low temperatures (that I set via each radiator's internal interface). It's crude but effective. I use an app to control the remote switches; I'm not totally happy about relying on a cloud based app but I can always bypass the remote control locally if there's an issue and in summer the radiators' are simply switched off so the risks are minimal.
I fully agree with you. But while scrolling to next comment, a question came to my mind: Would it really bother me if some person that does not known my name, has never met me in real life and never will is looking at my pictures without me ever knowing about it? To be honest, I'm not sure if I'd care. Because for all I know, that might be happening right now...
I have never watched a Medea flick in my life, but now I want to, you made such a strong case. The thought of a lighthearted movie with unexpected soul and a strong, positive message is so appealing.
Yes, I worked on such a product. Users had several hashing algorithms they could chose from, and the ability to create custom ones if they wanted.
Or "create" some dirt
No it was not a stupid assumption. You need to read more carefully as I exposed a flaw in his reasoning. The suggestion was that since CP possession does not prove physical molestation, therefore it is OK. Actually possession of CP is a crime in itself. This is an objective fact. I've known of otherwise intelligent people who do believe its actually OK to possess child porn if they're not physically molesting anyone.
Oh man memories of figuring out how to change the wind speed and feeling like a hacker for the first time!
Are there any plans to replace the Apple firmware for ANS as well, or is that so locked down with signature checks that we can't expect to be able to?
I think the Lutron Caseta system is an example of how to do this in a better way, though it doesn't fully solve the obsolescence problem you mention. It minimizes the size and cost of the potentially obsolete part.

The switches and dimmers themselves degrade gracefully--you'll always have a button to turn things up or down or on or off if the connection fails. And the connectivity is provided by a simple and responsive dedicated radio system, coupled to a bridge. You might need to replace the bridge in the future (to add support for a new protocol or whatever) but the dimmers should last (nearly) as long as the passive switches they replaced.
I've always felt like this is where IDEs could help. You should be able to "inline" the implementation of a function or even whole class without actually changing the code.
Or anywhere else in the world, eventually. (Soon?)
It's not crazy and it's not a trick.

The Context: that's an app-layer concern, not a protocol layer concern.
A lot of emissions are from transport, electricity production, cement production, and heating; none of those are offshore

And in terms of manufacturing, while a lot of the labor intensive (but more emissions light) manufacturing jobs have gone overseas due to lower wages, most heavy industry (chemicals, etc) has remained onshore because those products are bulky
I use a VPN and Firefox with NoScript installed. You might think I would be on board with Mozilla's privacy zealotry, but this page rubs me the wrong way. Dunking on IoT and wearables as "Super Creepy!" just seems out of touch with consumer preferences. My Amazon Halo is the first piece of technology I've been excited to use in a long time. I guess Mozilla thinks I'm creepy by association.

It is illegal for the USPS to look at the contents of first class mail except with a court order.

Other classes of mail may have less stringent protections. For instance, third class (and maybe second class, I forget) mail can be opened to make sure that the things it contains are allowed to be mailed in that class.
I am saying that you are promoting a slippery ground falsely as middle ground.

Basically the argument I hear from you is “If you build a back door, then people will use it. So let’s build it anyway because it is a middle ground.” The problem I have with it is the “let’s build it anyway”.

That seems as clear as day. Why do I have to keep repeating myself? Don’t be an apologist.
This article covers three methods, all of which just look for alterations of a source image to find a fast match (in fact, that's the paper referenced). It is still a "squint to see if it is similar" test. I was under the impression there were more sophisticated methods that looked for types of images, not just altered known images. Am I misunderstanding?
Shark jumped! Scale matters, nuance matters. The scope of the two comparisons make them unequal.

It doesn't need to. The feasible short-term target is feature parity with de-googled AOSP roms, which would still make it plenty useful in a "daily driver" scenario.
Yes they are. But, consider the common query, for records based on an time index on the last day. This index will point to a bunch of primary keys and those, being random, will be spread across a much wider range of blocks. If the primary key was just the time, those items would be on the same or close blocks.

Thinking about this more… This depends on electric flight. You cant stop the refineries with uavs powered by their targets product. It may be that electric flight is the cornerstone to emission prevention.
2005 Mark Zuckerberg Harvard guest lecture about Facebook’s architecture [video]
US exports dirty production to other countries so some of the drop is not real (just gets allocated to other countries). Also despite this we still produce more than 2x more per capita than China.
Except the orders of magnitudes you are suggesting are nowhere near the current situation regarding CO2 emissions.

We're talking about 16T per capita in the US vs almost 7T in China.

So it's more like Stealing 200$ vs 100$.
No problem. Yeah, for what it is worth (getting further aside), I gave up on supporting the ULID conversion directly in-db for that same reason: Base-32 math (which ULID uses for canonical string format) is tough enough in SQL before you add in the endian issues. The endian issues aren't as big of a deal in my storage sort order situation because the MAC address section that I use for the timestamp data most critical to the sort order doesn't suffer from the endian issue and the remainder of a ULID is entirely random and I'm not too concerned if the random section doesn't sort identically to the ULID sort order. (It would be great if it did, but it's not as critical as the more dominant timestamp order.) That said, .NET's GUID ToByteArray() handles the endian order for me and I'm somewhat confident it's correct so long as it is my .NET code doing ULID-to-uniqueidentifier conversions and not the scripts I tried to use directly in-db.
As far as I can tell Origin: is also sent by regular HTTP POST requests these days.

I added a note about Origin to the post.
These graphs measures "burning of fossil fuels for energy and cement production" only, which only represents a fraction of the total emissions in a country. It doesn't measure household emissions or food production. It also heavily favours post-industrial countries compared to countries still in the process of building heavy infrastructure (which requires cement production), like China. These data are biased and self-serving in that sense. US citizens still consume five times more than Chinese citizens in terms of resources, which is unsustainable.
OP completely misunderstands the situation.

No that is literally not the definition of end to end encryption.

End to end encryption means that only the final recipients of data can see what the data is. In this case, it's the user.
The author needs to familiarize himself with the concept of MTBF. It's surprisingly short for high order artifacts. Entropy will introduce errors and break down every single high order system out there. I am aware of two exceptions: the biosphere and, on a much much smaller scope, cloud storage. The core characteristic of both systems is redundancy and repair: every piece of the system is continuously monitored and replaced by a healthy clone before enough errors accumulate to render it inoperable.

I recently moved from a house in the suburbs in Australia to an apartment in the city. Got rid of my car and now I just walk to everything I need. I couldn’t be happier. Driving was such a huge stress on my life that is now gone. I can get anything I need within a 10 minute walk.

The thing is it just doesn’t seem like the average person is willing to give up single family houses to gain walkability. For me, I would never go back.
This is really cool. I’m glad I didn’t get too far into learning it now, I can use this guide happily! Thank you for your effort in producing it.

Not really, because if there are long-term side effects, we need to have a control group.

For example, the vaccine used for the 2009 Swine Flu:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandemrix

"Pandemrix was found to be associated with narcolepsy from observational studies, increasing the risk of narcolepsy by 5-14 times in children and 2-7 times in adults. The increased risk of narcolepsy due to vaccination in children and adolescents was around 1 incident per 18,400 doses."

If you don't have a large section of the population unvaccinated, you can't conclusively prove that the vaccine was the cause.
Well, it was succint and other people got it.

Some website reporting you to the police for doing something illegal is not the same as your hardware/software being stuffed with snakeoil spyware that slows down the UI all for some made up cause.
Ok, good point, thanks.
> Is your device configured to hide notifications when locked? See "Control how notifications show on your lock screen".

Yeah it's a bug with push notifications I think. I don't care - I think it's a great feature because if I don't hear the buzz, I won't look until my brain decides to check my phone, which can be a long time.

I am looking to move towards a Punkt MP-02 for my next device, but the fact that it's not an open source device that I trust... I hesitate.
I want to live in a walkable streetcar suburb:

* Reasonably sized (2-3k soft) lots

* Homes built with a variety of beautiful architecture

* Area is not overbuilt to the point where all greenery and sunlight are gone and replaced by large buildings

* alleys behind the lot, with garages hidden, to keep a single car (which is still really necessary in modern life)

* small, thin, tree-lined streets

* within walking distance to locally-owned bakery, a grocery store, coffee shop, public transit, etc.

The problem with living in these desirable, walkable, neighborhoods is that once they're built up enough, there is intense lobby to fill the the area with higher density housing because of the critical mass of services available.

Of course, that's necessary, but buying in these areas put you at big risk of having to move away if you don't like massive density increases, whereas buying in a suburb protects you from that change.
Add up the roads, parking spaces, parking garages, gas stations (not to mention auto shops, drive thrus and car washes) and the total urban footprint is a gargantuan 50-60% by many calculations. That's not automatically a bad thing, especially if you are a car, but all of that space creates massive buffers separating all of the other stuff that humans want to walk to. To make it worse, those buffers are far and away the most dangerous thing in any urban environment.

On the bright side, the pandemic seems have enabled many cities to finally reclaim some of that car land for use by people. Though it's not clear how long that will last.
Verified boot is only enforcing on -user builds.
Lineage ships -userdebug builds.

Furthermore Lineage's official root addon writes to /system. You can't have any additional changes to system or else verified boot won't boot.

You can't have it both ways as it stands.

That isn't to say they are incompatible, you can compile-in root support before the system hashes are generated and then you can have a locked bootloader with verified boot with root support.
But you cannot make any additional changes to /system with that root power afterwards.
I'm just wondering, if things are so bad, why are there no riots? Doesn't seem like there's much to lose tbh.

In my home country, they stormed the parliament and burned parts of it because the wrong party gained power (by fraudulent votes). If they were killing low class people, there would be riots, bombings and murders all around.

It goes beyond that. Did everyone forget mail-order catalogs? Even up into my early teens, we would regularly receive them. One could mail-in (or phone-in) orders for a similar variety of goods as is available on Amazon (relative to the number of goods generally available in the American market). I understand that they're still common for enterprise, if for little else as marketing. Amazon's advantage over those is not so large, and the caveats involved in using it make me wonder about the net utility - especially now, as the politicians whose Amazon's success has enabled have badly damaged our postal system and drastically slowed the delivery of goods not available at a local distribution center.
I like my car and I like driving.

That said, I don't like driving _everywhere_. When I moved to university, it was incredibly freeing to just be able to walk somewhere I wanted to go rather than getting in my car and driving miles to get anywhere. I grew up in a suburb in Texas so walking anywhere except _maybe_ a friend's house was entirely out of the question.

I visited Portland recently and it was lovely to be able to get around the whole city without a car. We didn't rent one, save for one day when we went > 100mi out of the city. No Ubers, no Lyfts- just walking, buses, and lightrail.

Just my experience as an American.
>>I have a tough time believing that false positives would slip through that many layers.

I don't, not in the slightest. Back in the days when Geek Squad had to report any suspicious images found during routine computer repairs, a guy got reported to the police for having child porn, arrested, fired from his job, named in the local newspaper as a pedophile, all before the prosecutor was actually persuaded by the defense attorney to look at these "disgusting pictures".....which turned out to be his own grand children in a pool. Of course he was immediately released but not before the damage to his life was done.

>>But I’m not concerned about a perceptual hash ruining someone’s life

I'm incredibly concerned about this, I don't see how you can not be.
If we were to have a mass extinction event today, the "survivors" would quickly find that all the readily accessible surface level fuel sources are long gone and have already been consumed. In the 1600's or 1700's it wouldn't have been that difficult, but today the challenge of getting access to power is going to make restarting civilization somewhere between difficult and impossible.

Try finding enough burnable wood near an emerging city/town to provide warmth and power while you restart civilization and I think you'll discover that humanity has already cut down the majority of the forests, tapped the majority of the oil Wells that can produce oil without lots of supporting tech, and mined most of the easily mineable coal. Sure, you can get a bit of power, but it's going to take a lot of both power and specialized skilled labor to restart our power sources civilization after a mass extinction event. The chances are extremely good that even if you can resume making babies you can't resume making the power those babies will need to achieve the goals we would have for them. On the surface of the Earth today it takes more power and skills to gain access to power than survivors are likely to have.

Well the problem is we really need to cut emissions at least in half by 2030, so less than 10 years (and even that's probably not enough to stop some pretty awful shit).

So if we suddenly start building 180+ nuclear plants this year (what the article says we need for the whole planet), they're unlikely to start providing any emission reduction at all until after 2030. That's part of the reason why they said in the article that they're too slow.

That doesn't mean they can't be part of the solution, especially planning for 2040 and beyond, and Bill Gates mentioned in his book that he is investing some serious money into some next-gen nuclear power plants that is supposed to address some of their current issues, but they can't be the primary solution anymore (maybe they could have been 10-20 years ago if we built a lot more of them).
Depends on the figure type. A specific spec is usually reliable, AI timelines are very unreliable. Product launch dates are inconsistent. Shipment volumes have always been met, but are almost always delayed.
It's not possible to make people understand. You can try it understand others, and some others can try to understand you, but you can't make someone's open their mind if they don't want to.
Indeed. Terraform is a single point of failure because it explicitly needs to keep state. For larger environments this is a headache.

Ansible can read the running state which is more robust. External modifications of state happens, if nothing else than as a result of failure modes not under your control. Setting and reading state explicitly is a feature. Code should be committed to git at all times.
If you are not using root, CalyxOS lets you relock your bootloader with the developer key, which increases the security of your device by preventing other operating systems from being booted or flashed onto your device (until you choose to unlock the bootloader again, which requires you to enter your lock screen password and would wipe the device data). CalyxOS only supports devices with bootloaders that can be relocked with a custom key.

Or... hear me out. You could just build walkable suburbs. Why there is a distinction between 'suburb' and 'smaller city' is beyond me, but there really is.

A small city still has a walkable downtown core with apartments around which there is a small area of single family homes within walking distance to the downtown area.

A suburb is just tracts of single family homes and nothing else for miles on end. No real 'business area', certainly no walkable one.

We could just talk a normal suburb, rezone some homes to business districts and take cars off that street. Voila. Now you have a mini downtown near a bunch of single family homes. Oh yeah, and you have a nice business district that's cheaper than the real downtown that is a good launching place for local businesses. win win win.

Now do that everywhere, and then connect the little townie areas via rapid transit and you have something lovely.

“Problems you want to have“ are still problems, after all.

It’s just, which would you rather have: a perfectly run trial because your vaccine efficacy is so low that your control group doesn’t feel incentivized to get vaccinated? Or a vaccine that works well enough to quell a pandemic, causing your control group to jump ship and potentially lessen your statistical power?
