In this case it seems that they are a far left group that has decided to squat a restaurant for good old 'class struggle' reasons and vowed not to back down...

It also seems that it is not any restaurant but one of the 'victims' of the 2015 terrorist attacks [1]

Basically political extremists trying to disguise themselves as environmental activists. Not interesting people, to say the least.

Does SETI not count? Easy to imagine the first received ETI signal being some world-ending infohazard.

A technological gift with insidious Trojan Horse functionality (a biotechnological machine with subtle side effects; a physics device that touches physics we haven't discovered). Irresistible instructions on how to join the friendly galactic internet -- which actually route to a paranoid deviant ETI that destroys anything that transmits (ala Dark Forest hypothesis).

Financial literacy is only a necessary condition, not a sufficient one.
> it will be very hard to evaluate if they use prefixes correctly,

I faced this on a small team that adopted it. From my reading, it's OK if you create some of your own prefixes that suit your workflow. The point is to get everyone to use the same thing, not to try to say "feat/chore/etc" are the only things you can ever use. But... the team I was on didn't want to change anything, just use out of the box defaults, because "these are the community standards" (words to that effect).

I do not like being forced in to the "conventional commit" style as it gives the impression that it's providing something of value, when, in our case, it's not really valuable to anyone on the team. I did some other work in 2019 on a different team which was much more efficient and effective with their commits, review, merging, etc, but didn't use conventional commit.
> buying food usually comes before renters insurance. $200 a year matters. Seriously.

I agree. Was echoing the observation that financial literacy and education can be disconnected. At lower levels of income, the key lessons tend to revolve around the cost of check cashing and payday lending, avoiding banks that charge fees, doing your taxes and getting your credits and refund and keeping an eye on recurring bills.

I am also paying for ProtonMail.

They come off as a very dodgy company willing to twist the truth themselves. They claim that they can provide E2EE for email, being careful not to give away the fact that this is impossible for regular emails to non-PM customers.

Frankly I only use them because they're the biggest "private" email service and that provides a kind of safety in numbers.
Can you instead verify that each component is uncorrupted, a hardware hash function if you will? Looking at density, centre of gravity, weight, appearance, and/or radiographic imaging?

> The funding is based on a very good EU initiative. Any battery manufacturer can apply:

That's part of the reasons why the Italian minister for ecological transition, Cingolani, few days ago talked about rethinking the ban strategy on ICE engines, using the supercar market as an example of an European industry that would suffer from it.

Italy wants to build their own batteries, in Europe

Germany wants to build batteries in Germany, no matter who produces them

The federal elections in Germany will be held at the end of this month (Sept. 2021)
Frau Merkel will retire and Draghi could become the new strong political leader of Europe, partnering with Macron.

We'll see if things are going to be the same or EU will change the rules around subsiding non EU companies.

But it'll eventually happen after German elections, not before.
Google has invested a lot on its computing infrastructure (I guess ~20B per quarter nowadays?) and a large part of this should be attributed to YT given the heavy computational nature of video processing. I wouldn't be surprised if cumulative OpEx on YT is several tens of billions after the acquisition.
Back in 2016 I've coded a small app for basic investment/retirement calculations because a friend asked for it. Building it made me aware of many things I honestly didn't give a damn, and since then I've been able to save, invest and be in general much less worried about my retirement.

You misread.

The cosmological redshift is not attributable to galaxies receding.

The cosmological redshift is photons losing energy as they forge a path through the gravitationally connected universe. It's the cost of traveling.

Total redshift =
Cosmological redshift (photon forging a path through spacetime)
+ Doppler redshift (for example, Andromeda drifting toward us)
+ Gravitational redshift (like how Sun-to-Earth photons are redshifted because the Sun is more massive)

I just noticed the original story from the Rolling Stone has now also been picked up by Dutch news outlets. I can imagine the same happens in other countries all over the world.

It's amazing how fast the lazy behavior of a single journalist can make incorrect news spread that fast.

I notified a couple of Dutch journalists on Twitter, as I am curious whether they will (and how) correct this.

It seems that many journalists in my country just pretty much translate and summarize foreign media.

None of what you detail though is included in what the GP describes as a modern database.

I’m not trying to nitpick but what GP describes aligns to what Mnesia provides.
Another piece of financial literacy that should really be taught in every high school is the Kelly Criterion. Even a basic understanding of the concept can improve many people's risk/reward over time.

And while it's often mentioned in the context of high-risk bets, it's equally applicable to low-risk savings / investments (how much of savings to keep in cash vs the general stock market, given X% estimated inflation).

Surprisingly, I've come across a large number of people in (seed) investment circles, active investors and entrepreneurs who didn't know about it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelly_criterion
Ha!

It's funny-- except for Tenoke all the responses so far boil down to essentially this.

I'll try again.

Assume an alternate reality where this incredibly important rule doesn't exist. In it, the other player simply takes the king on the next turn from a neophyte who didn't realize they are still in check.

What bad things would happen as a result of the non-existence of the gratuitous rule?

And don't just speculate based on the zero cost of posting on HN. Give me the real reason based on the history of the creation of chess rules and/or the documented behavior of real chess players in history.

We know that PM saves all kind of metadata and happily provides it to any kind of agency. You have to use an anonymous VPN service (obviously not ProtonVPN) in combination with ProtonMail, if you want to avoid exposure by PM.

ProtonMail lost it's essence to be honest. As soon as my subscription runs out I'm gonna host my own mailserver instead. There are no advantages in using ProtonMail snymore.

Error detection can be done in the layer underneath, including doing so within device mapper.

A filesystem not doing its own vs a filesystem "corrupting data" are very different concepts.
It is the potential of hardware compromise that concerns me. Software can be wiped, but if the hardware itself contains backdoors, software can then be install at any time. Furthermore, given the global supply system, its so hard to confirm that any hardware is not compromised.
Because Postgres views enforce API versioning in ways that don’t break older clients. Pretty much any schema modification that would break an older client is forbidden by REPLACE VIEW. It is certainly possible to break older clients but you have to work at it.

Also… you don’t want to build an API layer because postgrest builds one for you. One that is close to on par with GraphQL (arbitrary joins / filters)
Did you have a portfolio of applications you've built and code you've written? Did you put a link to it on your resume? How did you share it with the employer, if you don't mind me asking?
I believe the best misinformation/manufactured outrage campaigns start with a grain of truth or an existing non-manufactured opinion.

This tiny grain gets augmented and overtaken in social media posts and then spreads to mainstream media who report on it dispassionately.

One way to tell this is happening is that it appears in news everywhere seemingly overnight, without warrant. For example, ivermectin was just one of many potential therapies reported early on, but quickly spread to become one that almost everyone has heard of and appears in the daily news cycle constantly, taking attention and discussion away from many other things.

It's unfortunate but most of the time people tend to imitate what the people in their social/peer group are doing. That's partly why parents want their kids going to good schools - they'll pick up good habits from those around them.

If your friends are all talking about investing and saving to buy a house chances are you'll start looking into it too. I know its not an excuse either but people want to be part of a group more than anything and if that group were to mock you for your financial literacy or none of them are bothering to be financially savy I can see why many people are failing to grasp some of these concepts.

In my opinion financial literacy should be promoted via movie stars/ athletes. The very people many poor people look up too. I know Kevin Heart the actor was saying that this is something he really thinks would change a lot of poor peoples lives for the better and he's helped roll out campaigns to try and teach people some financial skills: https://hartofitall.chase.com/index.htm
Apple pulls some tricks like this with otherwise hidden-from-user SMSs.

In France, some cheap SIM cards charge per mb and per SMS until you register a plan. So I carefully disabled mobile data, avoided SMS, loaded 10 EUR of credit over wifi, which 'activated' the phone on the network, but when I went to sign up for the 10 EUR plan, I found I only had 9,95 EUR left.

As soon as credit was loaded, my iPhone sent an SMS ping to an Apple shortcode to tell iMessage my new number. The sending and record of this SMS was completely hidden from the user on the phone. Cue some he-said she-said with the carrier about whether I did or didn't send an SMS. Most mobile providers zero-rate shortcodes to Apple and hide it on their billing system too, but not Lebara.

So I had to add 5 EUR more of credit just to buy the 10 EUR package for the month.
All those noSQL or newSQL have more than one leader per table they have a distinct leader for each partition.

So if you have 6 server and 2 partition you could have 3 servers for partition number #1 and 3 different servers for partition number #2.

If you want extra performance you could make the server simply store key->value mapping using quorum write like Cassandra is doing but to keep data consistency you still have 2 choice

#1 use Optimistic concurrency (an app performing an update will verify if the data has changed since the app last read that data).

#2 using some kind of Lease, elect one machine to be the only one allowed to write to that partition for some time period.

Option #1 do not give faster transaction throughput but could offer lower tail latency.

Option #2 bring you back to square one of having a leader so you better just use (Paxos/Raf)

That study is included in the meta-studies discussed here, all of which apparently lose all statistically-significant support for ivermectin once the fraudulent Egyptian study is removed from the data set. You can, for instance, find the Tlaxcalan study in the Cochrane meta-study I linked upthread.

All these kinds of comments seem premised on the idea that nobody is studying ivermectin, and that any research results, even if just in 60 patients in Lagos, must be huge news. But lots of people are studying ivermectin! If it's effective, we should be seeing clear results.
Has your home in France been squatted? No? Or maybe you do not own a house in France?

If so, on which basis do you ironically call squatting a "terrible crime"?

Squatters in your house in France means that you you have zero rights on this place until a lengthy process gives it back to you, ruined. You are then expected to be grateful and can forget about any reimbursement from the poor people who stole your property.

No I have it exactly right and you still don't understand the law. The FDA has wide latitude in how they interpret the word "adequate". And while it's possible that ivermectin may prove effective for COVID-19 treatment, as of today it's still not formally "approved" for that use. Doctors can prescribe it to COVID-19 patients but it's considered off-label use.

Because investment theses aren’t as simple as “thing X is a good investment”.

You don’t start with the assumption it’s a good investment and try to disprove it.

You do the opposite, and with some sort of analysis. It’s not that batteries are good or bad. It’s whether this amount of capital invested in batteries with this company and this business plan at this cost of capital is a good investment.

> You need to know what data you are dealing with anyway

Exactly. At some point, somewhere, you need to understand your data and how different attributes or objects relate to one another. You can do this in a variety of ways, but if you don't understand this you don't understand what you are building.
> I'd like to see this claim validated experimentally.

In 2020, there was a meta-analysis of 76 RCT studies reviewing the impact of financial education programs on financial knowledge and human behaviors [0, 1].

Based on the abstract, the authors write: “The evidence shows that financial education programs have, on average, positive causal treatment effects on financial knowledge and downstream financial behaviors. Treatment effects are economically meaningful in size, similar to those realized by educational interventions in other domains and are at least three times as large as the average effect documented in earlier work. These results are robust to the method used, restricting the sample to papers published in top economics journals, including only studies with adequate power, and accounting for publication selection bias in the literature.” [0]

Feels like gene editing is at a point where more frequent lab escapes of self-replicating airborne pathogens is just a question of time. Not to mention the speed of progress in biotech and synthetic biology means soon this stuff can be done in a garage.

Beyond pathogens, perhaps when life (inevitably) learns to change the code that makes up life, the recursion leads to implosion soon after
Not a database expert but here is my thoughts after using Cockroach DB for a mid sized:
- Single cluster mode is really nice for local deployment
- WebUI is a cool idea but I wish it had more info
- The biggest problem is Postgres compatibility there are some quirks that was annoying examples being. The default integer types having different sizes, cockroachdb having a really nice if not exists clause for create type but having no way to maintain a Postgres compatible way of doing it (i think this one is on postgres only being able to do it with plsql scripts is cumbersome)
- For me the neutral one. IT HAS ZERO DOWNTIME SCHEMA CHANGES. But if you are just coming from Postgres and just using a regular migration tool and transactions and schema changes having serious limitations and could end up your database in inconsistent state is scary. (Docs really document the behavior but still I would expect a runtime warning for it.

You can disable the recording of login sessions in Protonmail's settings dashboard. I do that, not only to avoid Protonmail learning of the logs, but by a hacker who, once upon breaching your account; also gets to learn the IP you use to login with.

I agree about not trusting entirely anything about consciousness. I said Hoffman's theory was fascinating, not that I bought it entirely as there are too many unanswered questions. But for me it was a paradigm shift in terms of how one could look at what we call reality.

For some reasons I feel HIV treatments would have been found much more quickly had it been the case. Just like I'm pretty sure mosquitos would have been eradicated (or another solution would have been found) if it had killed so many people in developed countries.
That isn't an option in this part of the UK. There are almost no jobs. And the schools there are not good (and university isn't really an option for these people anyway, even if you get the grades). It also isn't easy to move anywhere, there is nowhere to move to, housing is short in any area people want to live.

For reference, Middlesbrough is one of the most deprived places in Europe (inc. Eastern Europe). I know people who grew up round there, I have been there quite a bit...it is unlike anything you see in most developed countries (the only place I have ever been like this was slum areas in Milan, and rural areas of Eastern Europe).

Even if schools had the teachers (most of them just don't teach some subjects, like computer science, at all...they don't have the staff, no-one will live there), bullying is off the charts, sexual violence against girls in school is an epidemic, teachers sexually abusing students is an epidemic...although hopefully ending...I would say it is close to impossible for most people in this situation to lift themselves out (particularly given the parents, not just school). I know people who went to schools around here, I know people who teach in these kind of areas in the UK...these places aren't developed country.

Btw, if you grow up in an urban environment in the South in the UK, even if the area is heavily impoverished...your school is top-tier. The issue is complex.
