These connect Pi Compute Modules, which are distinct from regular a Pi in a few ways (eg they don't function without a host board of some sort, so don't have certain things on board like network connectors, GPIO etc) but putting that aside, you'd get to a reasonably similar place if you hooked up some regular Pi's, it's simply more wires with the regular ones.
The military method to define any male (and sometimes women) above a certain age as an combatant was leaked 2010. This is simply a reminder that the same indiscriminating warfare are continuing.

If anything this article reminds me of domestic terrorists that define a certain demographic as being enemy combatants and then goes to indiscriminate killing spree. The major difference seems to be that the military personal who actually operated the drones know that what they are doing is wrong, otherwise the room would not have gone silent when the two civilians and their child got killed. Then when it comes to write the report the two civilians becomes combatants and the killing get internally justified.
I'm not saying you're wrong, but this might (obvi, wild speculation) just be a premature version of: "I heard kabul was great under the taliban"

That said - yeah, I'm glad ISIS's great swoop was thwarted.

I had an argument the other day with a guy refering to Morocco as part of the Middle East. It seemed mind-boggling to me you'd put a country West of Portugal in that category. I then discovered it had become common parlance in the US for anything that spoke Arabic or Persian.

A large band of the United States reliably gets heavy overnight snows. In my case we're talking an hour west of a major metro--Boston. These days, the inevitable travel snafus notwithstanding, I just stay home. But when I had to go into an office barring a state of emergency digging out in early am was a regular occurrence.
There are loads of big companies with huge, important databases in eventually-consistent nosql databases. In fact I’d say the bigger the company the more likely it becomes that they’ve got the software development chops to exploit that kind of database.

If the token is passed as a url parameter in a get request, -G can be useful as it forces the -d key=value switches to append to the url. So that:

curl -G 'https://api.example.com' \
-d foo=bar \
-d baz=whee

Is the same as

curl 'https://api.example.com?foo=bar&baz=whee'

That can make all the quoting hell a bit easier, as you're doing it one param at a time.

Seeing as most of the world population lacks the gene needed to process lactose after adolescence, I’m not sure how much of a peak impact this really has on the environment when compared with something like the global greenhouse emissions caused by crypto currency mining.
We need to seriously examine our own morality for allowing these ghouls to basically genocide brown people.

We are absolutely the baddies; between Iraq, Afghanistan and our air strikes on Syria, Libya, and Yemen during the same period killed 1 million civilians. We’re within an order of magnitude of the Holocaust, and we all just pretend everything is ok. I really don’t know why there aren’t more discussions of how this is basically the Islamic Holocaust.
A very relevant point on this entire discourse about Apple’s on-device CSAM scanning:

According to the U.S. law, key snippets of which are quoted on the Stratechery blog (by Ben Thompson), Apple isn’t obligated to scan for CSAM. It’s only obligated to act on CSAM if it finds them.

While it’s good for Apple to scan on its systems (iCloud) like Facebook, Google and other companies do on their servers, it’s inappropriate to do it on individual devices, which starts with the assumption that anyone who has iCloud photos enabled is a potential CSAM hoarder and needs to pay with their device’s battery life and time for the scanning to happen and report back. It’s a sort of micro-robbery that Apple is doing on the devices when there is no legal compulsion to do so.

Everything else on trusting Apple’s NeuralHash or the sanctity of the NCMEC hashes come later, IMO.

I sincerely hope Apple realizes that it’s got a dud solution on hand, eats humble pie (which it’s usually not capable of) and ditches this whole thing. I know a lot of egos at Apple are at stake here. But doing the right thing matters for a company that claims that “privacy is a fundamental human right” and has a CEO who’s a member of a marginalized/discriminated community and understands the risks of these efforts.

I don't really get what this repository is trying to achieve and what's the point of collecting collisions. Collisions will happen, that's just how it is with hashes.

It's already a public knowledge that Apple has 2 more systems (some server-side verification and a manual check later) to prevent false-positives. So what's the point of researching collisions in NeuralHash?

I use Safari’s reader mode on Medium and it fails to load lazy-loaded images (unsurprisingly) so if I want to see those, I have to scroll down first and then enable the mode.
I love reader mode in Firefox. It will also do text to speech for you.

The voices seem to dependent on something built into the OS. They sound okay on windows and I haven't figured out how to get them to sound good on linux. On windows the voices sound good, but I Wish I could get it to go a little faster. The voices don't sound human so it takes some getting used to.

On linux the voices just sound more harsh. To the point I don't want to use it. If anyone knows a switch to flip or how to install additional voices to make them sound better, that would be great.
> I'm always afraid I will be missing part of the text or the pictures

As for missing pictures, my argument is, either the text is referring to an image that cannot be seen in reader mode, then I'll notice and switch back to normal mode to see the image, or the image is not relevant to the text, so I just don't care for it.
I remember reading some tvs will actively search (open?) networks to connect on their own.

I want to become a Principal Engineer for Software. This track does not currently exist in any official capacity in the United States.

>Is that "phishing"? Those actions should be secure to perform in a browser. The security model of browsers/computers is such that I don't need to establish authenticity/trust in order to click the link or even download something.

You don't understand how hacking and planting of malware works. Hackers abuse zero day vulnerabilities in order to drive by download malware onto user's PC. They use exploit kits in order to manage and plant malware by abusing browser's or computer's zero day exploits. So when you visit a malicious website with vulnerable browser malware silently gets downloaded(drive by download) onto your PC.

On the other hand one of the most common email attachments is Microsoft Word document and again just like with browsers Microsoft Office and Microsoft Word have many zero day exploits or simply existing vulnerabilities(exploits) which user didn't patch so attacker abuses these kinds of exploits in order to drop malware when user opens Microsoft Word document and interacts with it.

Summa summarum: Hackers use zeroday or existing exploits to plant malware or they make lookalike websites or documents to trick you into giving your login credentials and/or payment information(credit card, bank account information etc.)

>The security model of browsers/computers is such that I don't need to establish authenticity/trust in order to click the link or even download something.

You do; websites use SSL certificates and computer files get digitally signed as well.
Why not combine this with a second different hash?

E: Better yet, only run the second hash if you have a collision, which should be very rare.

> complete failure of leadership in rebuilding Afghanistan

Agree. It's been a bipartisan failure with the aid of the media for two decades. But it's also an extremely hard problem, and it ties into an area that America is particularly bad at: state capacity. You can't build a government by being anti-government.

> and in communicating to the public that you can't just pack up and leave

Well, you can and they have. This is going to get a bunch of people killed, but that doesn't stop it happening this way, because that has basically zero traction with US voters.
The first DC connection between Germany and Norway has been put into operations some months ago. Which also solves all frequency problems :).
If you look on www.electricitymap.org, you can see how much electricity is already shifted around in Europe. Like with car traffic, Germany is a country which distributes electricity across Europe. Especially France often exports to many European countries, a lot through Germany.
(Which creates an inflated impression about how much French electrictiy is exported to Germany, because it is often overlooked that at the same time Germany exports the same amount or even more to neighboring countries).

Refresh while in reader mode. The DOM with most paywalls is destroyed post-render, not before it reaches the web browser. Refreshing in reader mode prevents client side scripts from executing and rewriting the DOM. I'm presuming this is to be search engine friendly, but I'll leave it to the SEO experts to educate me.

This is what I do with most sites.
If this happened to me the gloves would be off. I would threaten to kill them. If that didn't trigger them to attack me first, I would follow through. If the law of the land is not just then we are bound by a higher justice to act.

Yes, many do seem to worry about AI more than nuclear weapons - more so if they even cross streams so too speak.

But I do wonder how much of things are driven by worst case hoilloywood visualsations of things. Certainly the whole cold war and peoples mentalities, was very much media driven from the fear aspect. Will AI share the same and will we get to the stage that we see anti AI groups form and the term and history of Luddite gets revised!

Certainly many worry's, but also opportunities. Certainly don't want any AI working out a way to game Asimov's rules of robotics.

Putting the XP in Scrum
The original Turing Pi had 7 slots (wish it had even more!). I do feel that was better, because it really forces you to manage it as a cluster.

Spinning up VMs is sort of fine, but they don't have quite the performance or management characteristics of a real cluster. The network is slow, the nodes individually are not very powerful, you have to work out how to image each physical machine, nodes break or have I/O errors, ...

In Safari you can set reader mode turned on for specified websites. I have done it for all the sites which I visit frequently. Unfortunately there is no way to to turn it on at global level.

The only minor gripe I have is the slide-above animation when reader mode turns on. It's jarring when you keep getting that on each navigation.
"kill with no risk to their own service men"

Reducing the risk to your own troops is a fundamental concern of most armies out there and has been for millennia.

Robot warfare is a logical endpoint of such development. I cannot see anyone opting out of this race and remaining militarily relevant.

I use it for the text to speech in Firefox a lot. When there isn't a pay wall in the way I'll open the page in another tab while reader read's it to me.

This way I can see the text and pictures the way they intended it to be.

Another downside is that text content for other articles on the site that aren't part of the article, will be in the content. On the full site they'll be links or something and you just skip them with out thinking. In text to speech reader mode, it reads them off.
I haven't heard many positive stories from former child actors who talk about their experiences. The stories usually involve parents abusing their authority over the kid to make them chase fame for the parent's benefit. There should at least be more protections to ensure kids used in media aren't left with nothing other than jokes about that thing they did as a kid from strangers.
Nope, still they same message. Maybe wayback has some geoblocking too.
You think the U.S. government leaked videos of themselves bombing afghan civilians in the middle of tense negotiations with the Taliban?
Well presented and right in line with my thinking.

These "Are you sure you want to leave? You'll be giving up all this . . .". They come off like the kinds of things you have yelled at you after you break up with someone. And because Adobe is not applying any level of intelligence to the process, what's the likelihood that they show me a feature that frustrated/disappointed me as a "reason to stay"? What are you going to say to me? Break-up arguments: "You'll never find anyone who loves you like me, again!" (I know, that's the idea).

And my biggest pet-peeve -- "Here's some discounts, please stay" ("I can change!"). You're now telling me that you've been over-charging me. If I've gotten to your cancellation page[3], I'm gone. In fact, you can demonstrate to me that I'm making a mistake by actually doing the one thing I'm asking you to do and then making it really easy for me to either (a) have nothing to do with you ever again or (b) come back painlessly:

We're really sorry to see you go. We hope you'll come back, but we get it. Let's not do long good-byes. Here's an archive of everything you might want from our service. We'll delete that if you want, otherwise we'll keep it here for 6 months so you don't need to feel rushed. If you change your mind during that time, you can just login and we'll get your account sorted back out in a couple of steps.

I'd be so surprised seeing something like that, I might end up undoing my choice[4].

A few years ago a museum season-pass cancellation, done via phone, got really close to this. The call started with processing the cancellation and confirming that my credit card would no longer be charged. They made an offer after that point, but it wasn't "would you come back if we knocked $10 off?", rather "We only had the one season-pass option before, and I noticed you use about half of your tickets and only in the summer ... we're offering a summer-only option next year that is less than half what you were paying." Had my kids not become sick of the place with how often we went that year, that would have had me come back.

> “We killed two innocent men and a charger,” the U.S. official wrote in a personal journal that day, using the military jargon “charger,” which means child.

Got to wonder why the need to replace a 5 character 1 syllable word with a longer 7 character 2 syllable word, a little easier to stomach than saying, writing, or feeling like you just killed a child?
Why is memory allocation via syscalls bad? I get it for embedded (which was mentioned above so perhaps that's what this targets), but I kind of assumed malloc was a syscall underneath on an actual OS and that was fine.
In a similar vein, I wonder if medical privacy laws are hurting us in this pandemic. If every time the hospitals filled up with patients, camera crews went through and documented all of the people suffering and dying, would those who aren't taking the pandemic seriously have their mind swayed? Obviously those medical privacy laws exist for a reason, but perhaps there should be more effort to ethically document suffering?

In both cases, as much as I like to think facts are what sway my opinion, an emotional connection is far likelier to motivate action.
This is a move on the right direction, and is better than nothing.

However, I think that a better move is to force HW platforms (maybe starting at a certain magnitude) to let the users use any software market they desire. This way Apple and Google can continue forcing the apps on their own markets to use their payment systems and "keep the users safe", while the other markets can do whatever they like
Many days I consider in a positive light “retiring” into a mid-level SWE role, content to just grind tickets of varying complexity and pay little attention to the cacophony around me. That wouldn’t be a bad life (assuming I had at least “damn you” money banked [doesn’t need to be F-you money])

Your comments are rooted in assumptions and an incorrect view of the low-income world, which makes a reasonable discussion impossible without preparing a whole lecture; and I don't have that patience for just a random internet commenter.

This argument is utterly incoherent. Of course they don't include into the false positive rate images that are intentionally designed to generate positive hits, what would be the point of that? The only interesting metric is the false positive rate for normal images.
If that is the case, a charger is someone that poses a potential threat to a service member due to physical proximity. Turning around and using that term to refer to a kid on the back of a motorcycle you killed from thousand of miles away with an errant drone strike seems disingenuous.

Is the idea to pollute the record of history by using the term incorrectly?

I use Microsoft Edge exclusively for its read aloud function -- it doesn't require reader mode to be activated and has integration with Microsoft's 'natural voice' which is almost indistinguishable from regular speech. Also it will instantly start reading from whatever word you click on which helps with backtracking. The downside, of course, is having to use Edge.
