I'm pretty sure that even almost invisible smoke can already cause significant trouble in this respect. Partly because particles of smoke themselves can be electrostatically attracted to objects under significant voltage, so even low density smoke can concentrate itself in problematic places. See Figure 3. and the text above it in https://www.osti.gov/servlets/purl/3313 .
When Will We Hear from Extraterrestrials?
Cool, thanks. Good luck in any case, I think there's a lot of potential in this area!
I hate the idea of facial recognition tech being used like this but I really don’t mind loyalty cards/using credit cards to track spending as long as the data is only used by the stores themselves (and not also sold wholesale to the highest bidders, which I bet it is).

I think it’s fair for them to gather analytics on spending habits and use it to make decisions on how to stock their store, run promotions, etc. Same for personalized coupons. Feels weird, but is pretty harmless, and I’m pretty sure they’re just trying to get you to try new things (like for me, beyond meat) so you start regularly purchasing it.
didn't Trump/GOP want to pull out of Afghanistan as well?

https://theweek.com/afghanistan-war/1003748/gop-takes-down-2...

Otherwise, why would they sign a peace agreement?

"The Republican National Committee has removed a page from the 2020 campaign that says "Biden has had a history of pushing for endless wars" while "Trump has continued to take the lead in peace talks as he signed a historic peace agreement with the Taliban in Afghanistan, which would end America's longest war," The Washington Post's David Weigel noted Sunday."
> It's a well-understood paradigm that has worked for a long time.

The situation is quite simple, and governed by Little's law. If your number of threads is greater than the average request rate times the average processing latency (of processing a request entirely on a single thread), then you're all good and it's a well-understood paradigm that's worked for many years. If, on the other hand, that number of threads is smaller than that multiple, then that well-understood paradigm is well-understood to have crashed servers for many years, requiring many more of them even when their utilisation is low. If you're on one side of this, then you don't have a problem to begin with. Loom exists because increasingly more people are on the other side of this problem, where they need multiple servers.
I voted for Biden very willingly and if pressed would do it again over the other option at the time. With that said, this is a colossal failure. How do you not evacuate US staff and the afghan workers who helped them before pulling out the troops. Intelligence expected the Taliban to win, just for it to take 3+ months for it to happen. If this was publicly available information and you are an Afghan soldier why the heck would you fight? Just surrender and join the Taliban, why die fighting the inevitable? Of course the Taliban swept through with very limited resistance. To risk US lives because you did not want to insult the current doomed afghan regime is insane. Absolut failure and a monumental loss to US standing in the world as well as the morale of US troops. I would call for the resignation of all intelligence leaders involved in this assessment. I might go so far as to call for Biden's resignation.
> You can get a house in the Rust Belt for 50,000 and the Rust Belt is a big area stretching through many states: Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, etc…

You can, but there are no jobs there, which is why housing is so cheap. The residents of these towns are leaving for the nearest growing city in huge numbers, leaving behind cheap housing and economic stagnation for those that remain.

And in the places where the jobs are, housing is getting expensive. Even in the “rust belt”. They’re cheaper than San Francisco, sure, but with places like Columbus seeing their housing prices grow 20% year over year, it’ll get bad fast.

> Want a house for less than 200k about 80 miles from San Francisco?

Again, it depends on what you do for a living. How long is the commute from there to the nearest job center? I’m assuming the answer is “unbearably long”.

Again, right now housing is cheap where people dont want to live.
There's a LaTeX curriculum vitae template called 'OpenCV'? That's brilliant.

I use LaTeX for mine, not because of some misguided sense of street cred, but just because I want it version controlled. I'm sure there are some nice pandoc templates for styling markdown CVs, but AwesomeCV for LaTeX CVs was what I came across, and has worked fine (roughly, it's abandonware that I've tweaked/fixed a bit but nobody's PRs get merged) since. My CV doesn't say 'proudly generated with heart emojis in LaTeX', or anything like that, it's just the tool I happened to use.
I've played with ABC / ABC.js to render sheet music in the browser before and I like it for transporting notation; but I don't think it fulfills the same use-case that Alda is attempting to hit.
I take as you point out as good because for some unknown reasons I can't watch the video at the moment, it just returns the grey BBC background in the video frame and nothing loads (Firefox 78.12 and disabled all adblockers and similar addons).
Anyway I didn't mean to bash in any way the kid and his accomplishment, which is great especially if compared to most of his western peers with much more money and tools at disposal.
>"to be not assigned" is generally less safe than "assigned for local use"

Normally I would agree. But in this case, 5 years (2018-2013), a $185,000 refund, high-profile media coverage and an explicit "deferred indefinitely" statement later ? I don't think any of us will see .CORP, .HOME and .MAIL on the internet in our lifetimes !
The difference was that before it it was 1 person, the King. After it was 10.

There are some today would would agree with you (in a way) and that royalty should never have compromised! Others see that where the magna carta never happened, that the French Revolution, the Russian Revolution and the terrors of both events as something to celebrate.

Me, I think the magna carta lead to less terror.
Thank you, these are nice to know!
To echo that, it’s not that the resume authoring doesn’t matter, but saying you made it in LaTeX is better said in the cover letter where you can highlight how that’s relevant to the role or why you did so.

Most resumes are processed and chopped up by ancient applicant tracking systems, so you sometimes have to stick to the facts in a resume with a plain layout. These ATS systems rank resumes by relevance, generally based on job ad keyword matching and matching against some synonyms not mentioned in the ad.

I’ve had early success with a less traditional resume layout but I know I was picked due to relevant experience even then. Experience, relevance and luck/perseverance are probably the three keys to landing a job quickly.

Charging Mac users more than PC users has been happening for a long time: https://www.csmonitor.com/layout/set/amphtml/Business/Saving...

There are two things here and the more important thing by far is that making something like a jig is nothing compared to making a programming tool. You can measure, scribe and cut a few times then drive self tapping screws and have something useful. Making something not only new but integrate with some existing tool doesn't take an hour, it takes weeks months or years.
This is pretty much solving a problem that doesn't exist at all.

How is this any different than Trump's sudden departure from Syria, abandoning our allies, the Kurds? That happened so quickly, the Russians were able to overrun our bases and get access to our intel.
2025: Why should I care if a grocery has my DNA and fingerprints? They already have facial recognition and a record of everything I ever bought, it's not like they are sharing it with anyone.

Also 2025: Why should I care if my gym has facial recognition technology?

2026: Why should I care if a grocery shares my DNA and entire purchase history with my insurance provider? It's not like I'm obese. I go to the gym.

2027: Why should I care that my insurance provider has DNA sequencing technology, my entire purchase history from every grocery store ever, my gym history, my driving history, my family history, a record of my health and fitness habits? I'm healthy.

2030: I suddenly have $500,000 in health bills because my health insurance provider dropped me 1 week before I had a sudden heart attack and presented 400 pages of evidence to the judge that it was justified based on the policy violations they repeatedly caught me doing. I guess I didn't read the fine print! I guess I shouldn't have smoked that one cigarette outside the bar when I was drunk that night, or have gotten drunk in the first place. And that burger on the fourth of July. I agree, in hindsight, that was over the line. All those premiums, and they drop me the second I am no longer profitable to them! But they're a business, they provide a valuable service to people who couldn't otherwise afford healtchare, so...
This seems like pure lack of will, not resources to me.

I feel that big productivity gains will be made once government software will be required to be open source.

Also if some form of better organization/decision making emerges that blockchain space folks are working on. I feel currently economy is too much supply driven and if more people could securely "invest" into what they really want build it would really make a drastic difference (you can see that kickstarter or crowdfunding as an example but it's too prone to scammers)
To add to this - antigravity is part of the Python standard library, and you want to run the version that's shipped with your version of Python, not the version from the latest development build. Do "python3 -m antigravity".

> If I want to transport music notation between software programs, I have MIDI for that, which does a good job of capturing all elements of a performance (keys, timing, velocity, pedals, aftertouch, etc.) These types of notation formats almost always fail to achieve MIDIs precision across all the aspects of a performance.

Well put. A lot of these feel like the wrong tool for the job, and I have a really hard time understanding why you'd want to track pitch data in a format like this when, as you say, DAWs exist and midi tracks can be moved around between them.

The only time these types of projects make more sense to me is when they present opportunities for discoverability or non-linear sequencing that can result in new or interesting ideas. For example, the Orca Sequencer used in this demo vide](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pe8wE0sx31Q) is an example of a tool that folks use as a synth-agnostic sequencer that takes advantage of a non-linear format to create music that you might not in a DAW/piano roll. Or at the very least, makes you take a wholly different route to get there.

Projects like Alda, however, make less sense to me since they are squarely pointed at linear-workflow music tracking, which is such a saturated space that it's hard to come in with a new format that doesn't just feel like a more painful way to do what a DAW can let you do.
Sometimes I go into deep-dives to try to find some truth to a contentious issue. I think it’s important not to take the easy path; certainly not if you want a well-learned opinion. Any sense of superiority this gives me is dashed when I realize:

1) It’s not reasonable to expect someone to dig so deeply, and there isn’t enough time to do it for every issue.

2) Someone, somewhere, has done an even deeper dive into the same issue. From their perspective, I’m the one that hasn’t done my research. When it’s “enough” is a fuzzy line.
> I run into my neighbors in the grocery store and say Hi.

There is a considerable difference between low data density, person to person, information... and high density, machine gathered, massive data stores. The later is much easier and more likely to be used for nefarious purposes.
I finally got mine last week, took over 6 months after placing the order!

It is very well built, unlike any ford I have ever driven. Drove it for about a 100 mile trip in the Columbia gorge last weekend, it was a blast.

That said, even with 250+ mile highway range, my wife had a bit of range anxiety once the battery gauge dropped below 50%. Something that will hopefully go away with time.

PGP is not meant to be run on the server, and therefore cannot make decisions about accepting or rejecting email.

Additionally, PGP relies on a "web of trust" managed directly by the user. There is no way for a server to automatically discover the key from $YOURBANK to decide if the email is legit; you need the bank to give you their fingerprint through a side-channel. _pka DNS records help, but is that simpler than SPF?

One company I worked at started using "tranche" obsessively after an exec used it thrice while talking through a pie chart slide. My team all thought it was ridiculous how malleable people tend to be and used "in the tranches" or "tranche and wave". Felt bizarre never hearing the word once before that event and made me question why people are vulnerable to something as such.

Some others mentioned amazonians and I can confirm this type of thing was incredibly common there (not just tranche, though I did hear that one more than once)

>This stability gives a sizable level of local support

Support might be a strong word. More like acquiescence. The Taliban actively attempt to undermine and destroy security in areas it does not control. Most Afghans don’t like the Taliban but understand there isn’t really a viable alternative. It is either the chaos of no control, the Taliban randomly attacking people in places secured by the government, or the repressive security of the Taliban.
This is only bad if there is no way to appeal such a decision. If implemented well this is probably a good thing. Shoplifting raises prices/reduces availability for shoppers who don’t shoplift (yes, it lowers profit too. It does both).
I've not heard that. From my current understanding, they generally don't evict a site when there is no risk of legal action. Maybe you're thinking of their reputation for being too strict on filtering TOR users?
With the Mustang and the F-150 Lightning I think Ford is in a pretty good position to become the leader in the EV space.

I'm personally waiting for the F-150 as I could use a truck for hauling things to a retail store my wife and I own, but I also don't like ICE truck's just because there is no trunk to keep things like my laptop or simply transporting groceries. The frunk on the lightning is a huge selling point for me, other than not having to go to a gas station since 99% of my trips are in town < 20 miles so I can just charge at home.

What does an occupation of a foreign country that has millions of civilians with no connection to these events have to do with attacking al-quaeda? Are they simply guilty by association for harboring terrorists.

Americans still haven't worked out that taking over nation by force isn't the correct answer and makes things worse. God forbid anyone attempt to occupy the US, you would all go ape shit mad.
What were the conditions to withdraw? My understanding is that the terms of the Doha agreement were 1) Taliban stops attacking US troops, 2) Taliban doesn’t shelter al Qaeda, and 3) US military leaves Afghanistan by May 2021.

Were there other conditions that have not been met? The Afghan government wasn’t even a party to the Doha agreement.

I think the main problem is that people think that advertising = marketing, while advertising is a marketing tool. Just like you have PR or Sponsorship.

What would you consider pricing and placement to be if not marketing? Selling in Whole Foods is the same as selling in Walmart? It's the same type of consumers that shop around those places? A 1000$ smartphone vs 299$ one are targeted at the same people?

Or price is just an arbitrary number given a cost and a random profit margin?

My point still stands, that "nerds" are influenced in their purchase decisions just like anyone else despite using adblockers.

The "Marketing Mix" was first approached in the 60's, it's not something I made up along the way to try to prove something. It's a whole discipline for some reason.
Ah, what a shame. Hopefully I figure out a workaround to support Mojave :D
No, sorry. Trump owns the pandemic. He could have been sane, followed scientific advise and acted more quickly. Instead, try snorting bleach. Get some UV light inside the body. Hundreds of thousands dead and a good amount of that toll could have been avoided.

-clashes in Northern Ireland
-Congressional hearing into Chinese political influences

They very much expected Afghanistan to fall. they just thought it would take a few months.
They created a power vacuum by pulling out in the dead of night, and then willfully ignored rapid advances by the Taliban. Nobody is disagreeing that it was correct to withdraw, but the handling of this has been nothing but sheer incompetence. Saigon didn't have people so desperate that they were holding onto the outside of airplanes and then falling to their death.

Coming up with food photos for the Futurist Cookbook was one of the most fun projects I've ever done:
https://annawilliams.com/VORACITY/CONTROPASTASCIUTTA/1/thumb...

It's amazing that Marinetti made a cookbook like this almost 100 years ago. It still feels experimental compared to the recipe junk that gets churned out these days. If he were alive today I bet he would make a new Futurist Cookbook of SEO-optimized AI-generated recipes that could never exist, designed to be eaten in a banquet served on an autonomous bus.

"For the extremist banquet, where no one eats, and the only satiety comes from online outrage, the guest may stay at the table only long enough to tweet."
Although I party agree with you in terms of tone, positivity for positivity's sake is also bad, if not worse. I saw the previous comment as constructive, although I might not phrase it like that myself, but to each their way. OP posted as Luanch HN to get feedback, not just praise. Previous commentator was not being negative or critical with no reason. Aggressive and baseless anti-toxicity is as bad as real toxic behavior.

If you can influence arbitrary environment variables, you usually have a lot more options - you could set PYTHONHOME or PYTHONPATH (influence where Python finds imports), LD_LIBRARY_PATH (influence where shared libraries come from), PATH (influence where the Python command itself comes from), etc. etc.

In this particular case, they happened to be in a situation where they couldn't easily figure out how to create new files but they could set environment variables. From a design perspective, as a reviewer, I would not believe that this makes it safe to have attacker-controlled environment variables, although I admit I wouldn't know exactly how (and this post is a pretty clever approach to making the attack work).

Good morning american war apologist hackers.

What are we hackin on today…?
This is bizarre but, I at least, in the UK wouldn't consider 'Ford' an American brand as we often get quite different Ford's to the ones sold in the US (Even when the name is the same, they often look totally different like the Focus). I know that's wrong, but its just the way it is. (Although Mustang is the exception to that).

I feel like when most people think of American Cars they think of big GM's, etc and at least in the UK they are not really are really famed for comfort, instead they were always famed for handling badly and having terrible MPG. Now don't get me wrong, I know the US has some great cars, but I think the markets are very different and the ones that have been available to us have been awful, expensive, or both.

My point is, I don't think people are buying the Mach-E cause its an opportunity to try the 'famed American Comfort Car' but more because its a good option for an electric car, and that's what a lot of people in Europe want when buying brand new cars now.
