I want to preface this with the fact that a few specific incidents left me disillusioned with the military and that I don’t think people really understand just how horrible war is. That being said I wouldn’t change the decisions I made. I truly believe the work that I did was a net positive and that my work contributed to saving the lives of both military members and civilians. Unfortunately not everything goes perfectly and I still struggle with those things mentally to this day. The things that do still haunt me aren’t the extremely hard to avoid tragedies, they were the events caused by poor leadership and people being placed in positions they didn’t deserve to be in. I think one thing most people don’t consider is that at the end of the day the military and government overall work and function very similarly to the businesses they work or have worked at. The big difference is that the incompetent manager doesn’t mess up part of a presentation, order, or whatever else you may be working on. It leads to innocent lives being lost to an avoidable situation and ends up being referred to as a tragedy.
I have an obsessive love for Pine64 but man it's hard to order stuff. Always out of stock.

> ~$180 average monthly earnings … compare to traditional porn sites, where some workers earn that money in a day.

That is not a valid comparison. Some OF publishers probably make that much in a day. Comparing the average on one venue to the outliers of another doesn't really tell you anything useful.

Furthermore, I suspect most traditional porn work is paid per shoot with nothing per view or per repeat, and there are relatively limited opportunities for fresh shoots because of the reusability of the content from each shoot. OF is a completely different model, the recurring income is likely to be considerably more significant than one-off income in that model. You'd have to do some proper analysis on figures gathered over months (or longer) to get any useful picture comparing overall income from these platforms.

Additionally, OF less likely involves interacting with people you don't know, in environments you are not familiar with, and other potential safety or level-of-ickyness concerns, so money is not the only consideration.

> compare to traditional porn

And another thing: Cam girls have been around for decades. OF in the sense being discussed here is traditional porn of a sort.
Discovery of a four-legged Whale Fossil Lived in Egypt 43M years ago
hairdressers and chefs can't have well rounded educations? going to vocational school is a completely different experience. you're not being asked to read literature at a trade school. you're not asked to take history classes, or even basic sciences. sure, these are positives to people that don't care, but i'm not sure that's a full education? you're definitely trained in your field, but is that a full education? i would recommend at least 2 years at community college on top of (before?) vocational school. i'm not knocking vocational schools, but i'm suggesting not knocking someone attending a college taking one of these types of careers
You can't say the motivation doesn't matter when the person is clearly ill-intended. He claims he "has suffered and will continue to suffer lifelong damages". Nobody knew who this person was before he started complaining about it, how could he "suffer damage" from it? There's no case here and any defense lawyer would have a field day with this.
I knew his name a few years ago when he "recreated" the pic for an anniversary. And promptly forgot his name until today.

This just seems like a cash grab (by him, or more likely some lawyer, idk.)
Not only is Tumblr still alive and well, I see screenshots of recent posts being passed around Twitter and Imgur regularly.

The idea that a) Tumblr was 90% porn before the ban, or b) Tumblr is now dead are both quite false.
As someone who has life experience, I can assure you that your lamentations are not special. "It's not what you know, but who you know" isn't a saying that originated in the 2010s.
Not out of the box no. You could fork and modify it, but that would take a lot of work.

Can't recommend Deta Space enough though, it is kind of like self-hosting it without managing an actual server!
Well then, if rights are only there to be pointed out when violated, and there is zero expectation that your rights should be defended except by your own exertion of force, what's the point of them? You can exert force however you want and if successful you can generate new rights at whim, and at failure lose rights.
I think it's a fascinating idea, operating a team on the basis of permanent remote work with occasional team work "retreats" when periods of heavy innovation and interaction are needed.

Many people from my experience say that, given the option to work remotely or in office, they would prefer a flexible option that lets them come into the office maybe 2 or 3 days a week and otherwise work remotely. The idea seems to be that a lot of people like having human interaction and teambuilding, but not paying for that connection with 5 full commutes a week and 8 hours a day in a cubicle.

The idea of taking the team out to an airbnb (or some other communal living arrangement) in the woods or by the beach for a week or two to launch a new major initiative 1-4 times a year seems like it could theoretically be an alternative, providing that human connection but not demanding an outdated office lifestyle.

In theory, anyways.

I'm interested to see if this kind of thing becomes a major perk/attraction of the next generation of startups, much like the attractive offices of today's tech giants were "revolutionary" in the aughts. Then we can look forward to the big guys trying to copy the model and creating a horrific corporatized version of it.

> that because Apple made a false claim

Apple never made a false claim. They have never anywhere stated that neuralhash makes false positives at 1 in a trillion. Only that that is the rate for the system as a whole to flag accounts for review. The explicitly mention that they will vary the number of matches needed to maintain this if it turns out to be higher or lower based on images in the wild.

There are good arguments against this system but most of the technical debate seems to have devolved into amplifying lies now.
Chelsea Manning is back and hacking again
You're relying a lot on "or had other influences".

None of those things were invented by him, or by the companies he worked with. They were mass-marketed by him.
This was a great high school summer internship project with Roboflow. I have been able to learn about DeepSORT and its shortcomings with data set specific feature extractors which, with the help of Roboflow, lead me to develop a groundbreaking advancement in object tracking. This repository is unique in its use of OpenAI's CLIP as the feature extractor which is not data set specific and has shown impressive results while being incredibly easy to apply to different models and data sets.
Lodash's Chain vs. Native Methods
I'm building a web-app called Tripmix, that lets you build travel guides for your friends (like FB Recommendations meets Canva).

I use Postgres, FastAPI, and TypeScript React. I wouldn't recommend TypeScript for solo developers who need to iterate and prototype quickly. That's been my biggest regret thus far. I think the end result will be much cleaner but I've sacrificed a lot of time getting it there, when I could have been shipping. It's all been a good learning experience though, and that's how I'm treating it.

Picked all of them out of familiarity.
It probably exposes nothing at all to anyone if the Play Services are not on the phone or the relevant feature is not enabled on microG. But it is still a chunk of code that is partly run and that you don't control. It probably just does what it says (check if the service is present), but it is a black box.
what are the mechanics of adding oneself to this list? I just did, but how is this realistically going to stop robocalls?
I hate the term because it's misandry. We shouldn't tolerate misandry any more than we should tolerate misogyny. Both are toxic behaviors.
That's pretty neat! I may hav to try that sometime.

I’m a huge fan of the reader mode on Safari for iOS. Probably the feature that I’m using the most, right after password autocompletion.
Running it in the Google colab thing (whatever that is) results in:

fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize = (12, 12), constrained_layout = True)

fig is not defined
For the other canonical query, try "mesothelioma." An info box on the right, and four ads on the left.

At one time, this was the highest-priced ad in Google (idk if it still is), because personal injury lawyers were desperate to get clients.
Schema on read versus schema on write?
Why do you think this is true? I use crypto weekly here in Switzerland because it's comfortable, fast and has lower fees. I could even pay my taxes in some places. Then there are millions of people with no proper access to banking that highly benefit from crypto. But some people just think it's all about illegal things and trading.
> You should read upon the woman who brought down Standard Oil ... It was basically a person that took on the largest monopoly in the world, and won.

She lost, she didn't win. Tarbell's confrontation with Rockefeller & Standard Oil and the legal actions of the authorities did the exact opposite of taking down Standard Oil. Standard Oil became even larger and more powerful. JD Rockefeller's family got far richer afterward. The Standard split itself into a more potent back-office interconnection of separate state chartered monopolies. No longer was there one monopoly controlled by Rockefeller, but numerous, all operating in concert as an oligopoly behind the scenes. The strings continued to be pulled by the Rockefellers just the same (which you can read about in eg Titan by Ron Chernow). It's the Sorcerer's Apprentice outcome that people were so afraid of in the Microsoft anti-trust trial. Tarbell accomplished very little other than some harm to Rockfeller's reputation by exposing a few corners of that empire.
That's true, until the viewer profile change or disappear, which happens very, very slowly, but it happens anyway. It happened several times in history. Nothing lasts forever.
Fun attempt at poaching developers from Twitch
There is no alternative

That hasn't been the case for quite a while. There is plenty of software, typically with much lower cost or even free in some cases, that now provides a credible alternative to Adobe CC applications for many users including professionals who have real work to do.

Figma

Sketch

Affinity

Blender

Photopea

VectorStyler

Vectornator

It's not 2010 any more.

Obviously these alternative products all have their own strengths and weaknesses and features and limitations. So do the CC applications. There are plenty of cases where one or more of the alternatives actually offers better functionality and/or UI these days.
Can you please share what have you studied in your undergraduate? Or roughly what area? My experience is very different, to me it looks like the market is very hot now even after covid (talking about: Busness analysis and Engineering)

Everytime there is a torrent alternative to the direct download, I will choose torrent, always.

I'm Gen X too and I don't think that's really accurate.

I feel like the job market has changed pretty markedly since I was a grad in the late 90's, and that it's just way more all or nothing.

You either can get a job with benefits and a career track and 4 years later you're better off, or you're literally going nowhere, every year of your job is the same as the year prior and you have nothing to show.

There's no more thing where you get a real, genuine, full time, but low-skill entry level job and try to prove yourself. You can't prove yourself in low-skill jobs any more, nobody is watching and nobody cares. In short "you can't get there from here."

I'm speaking entirely anecdotally for sure, but with that said it really does seem fundamentally not the same at all as what I faced as a new grad.
Reader mode really helps me in printing as well. Old comment of mine:

Printing is something I started to do some months ago. Instead of keeping the tab open for weeks, I decided I'd print anything I want to read and place it a physical "inbox".

Some tips: I print 2 pages to a side, so 4 pages per printer paper. Even long articles don't use too much paper, and for my eyes it's still readable (there are a few articles where I need to enlarge first). I print using either Firefox's "Simplify Page" feature or its "Readability" feature. This removes almost all the noise: No ads, no menus, etc. It's just the article and relevant images. Similar to reading a physical newspaper.

It's been a game changer. I can now read wherever I want. Going to the mechanic? I just take some of these printed articles with me. I find myself taking notes on the paper - something I would not do well on the computer screen. My eyes get a lot less strain. Once you get used to this, there's no going back. Now when I see an article through a web browser, it's just ugly. Too many distractions. Even the menus are annoying. I didn't realize I'd been putting up with filth for so long.

I initially worried that my inbox would get full and I'd have the same mental angst, and my plan was that if it happens, I'll take a random bunch and throw it in the recycle bin. But it never came to that - I still manage to read everything I print. Somehow, the physical inbox weighs less on my mind than the virtual one. I don't feel I need to deal with this inbox. It's OK if it just sits there collecting dust.

Bad for the environment. Good for the brain.
>>>Its true, there was a policy coup, but I've traced it much further back. Besides the JFK episode, the biggest one was Woodrow Wilson and his handlers.

This is just optimization. Work when most people take vacation and you can have an easy few weeks, then spend your vacation when you want.

The other tactic I saw was block out vacation, but don’t actually take it so you actually have time to catch up on work. Every leaves you alone (because they think you’re off).
The use of non-CM4 connector is interesting. Do you know why that is?

Edit: Oh, I see, they are using a daughtercard method to connect the CM4 form factor. Probably nicer to keep everything upright and packed parallel.

Edit: Also, thank you for your K8s book, I'm an avid user although I need to recheck Leanpub to see if there are any recent updates.
As a JD2 power user, could you expand on the inflexibility and the format selection? I am trying to understand your issue with format selection since JD2 can do wide range of formats. It uses FFmpeg as codec backend. If it is about the format selection in the LinkGrabber list, you can set your preferred format in YT plugin setting and JD2 will follows that. The default setting is "Best" which is why it shows you the list based on the best possible format.
You're really stretching the argument. Probably the worst is confusing the US Military with a coffeeshop customer. At most they'd be the supplier or employer, and like I said you're free not to buy from or work with people you don't like. That was never in doubt, not in this conversation nor in most conversations. We're talking about canceling customers here. Or employees, for that matter. US Military is many things, but not "the little guy".

Second is conflating things that affect a businesses operation in concrete ways with abstract ethical transgressions. They're very different things. Half the US population voted for Trump, but I doubt you'll find a handful to support shitting in stores, or opening plane doors during flight. That's not a small difference, it's a 4-5 digits difference.

> such as if the professor is teaching that people of color are less intelligent because of their skin color

If he's a biology or psychology professor, then it's a factual error and he should be fired for it. If he's teaching physics, then it's at most an optics issue, and while he has a fair chance of being fired it'll be a cultural decision. In a different society an atheist may be fired for speaking his beliefs. I'll also note that you picked a rather heavy-handed example - most real life cases are far from being so openly racist. I could also say something about correlation vs causation, but that would be plain goading you :)
So I kind of agree, except:

1) nobody would ever have known it was him if he hadn't been trying to milk it for celebrity

2) He's aiming at the record label because they've got the big bucks, but it's his parents who sold him out when they accepted 200$ for a photoshoot
I'm going to guess friendly/ies killed in action.
I tend to agree with you, but there are a lot of academics currently pushing variations of the concept articulated in the linked article.

The has been a decent amount of advocacy for IP rights for various forms "indigenous traditional knowledge" bubbling around academia and WIPO for years. Article 31 of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) basically expanded the scope of that IP debate beyond "traditional knowledge" to new stuff created by indigenous peoples. New Zealand is currently pushing this area the hardest, but eventually most countries that ratify UNDRIP will end up with at least proposals in this area. The stomach in academia and some policy circles for pushing this stuff right now is pretty strong.
Some important steps in my career were basically down to sheer dumb luck. I will happily claim responsibility for putting myself in a position where lightning could strike, and was prepared to take advantage of the lightning strike, but it actually striking was, again, sheer dumb luck.

Of course this is shortsighted and also impractical but it highlights the need for people to control their own data. Whether it’s this society referenced or another. It’s important that companies respect people’s data.
In my experience, none of these are sufficient. Robocallers/spammers rotate numbers, so the only solution I've found is to ignore all unknown callers. But, that falls apart when you're expecting a call from a doctor, or potential employer, or similar - they can never get through.

Why is it somebody else's home when they might have never even seen it? Because the state says so. This is not a natural property of the universe that the state is keeping in place.

Not bad. Here is the Windows equivalent with Excel separator:

For CSV that contain up to several 100k records native PowerShell solution is way faster and more practical:
