> She's a professional snitch.

I'd even say unprofessional. Not that it would make her any better, but if she'd been professional she'd taken it quietly to management or police and they could have ignored it edit: making it less embarrassing for them and less hurting for the colleague even if she was dumb.

She is the kind of person who should make anyone feel uncomfortable at work.

Who knows what else she doesn't like and will capture and post publicly on internet?

BTW: this seriously reminds me about PyconGate where someone who had just posted a d#ck joke on Twitter herself got two others fired because she thought she overheard them saying something between themselves that could be construed as a similar joke.
It's not pluralism when it's false facts.

There are science and facts. You can't teach false facts to people.

It should also be noted that in Sparta, the Spartan class was outright prohibited from any productive labor.
It's deliberate, you get taught different models of the atom etc the deeper you get into physics/chemistry. In that way you also learn about models and the scientific method and how the advances have been made.

In the same way that Newtonian physics is still useful for a lot of stuff, the circling balls model of the atom can still be useful in some areas
They definitely don't, the entire consumer electronics is a huge practical joke on its users. It's not only smart devices - even the induction stove with the integrated touch buttons beeping loudly at you and shutting off every time you breathe around them. And I could go on...
Yes, France wants to be beholden to no one - they don’t fear American attack though (except perhaps on their culture).
I expect this would work with infrared lasers as well.
There could be a way by building a product next-in-pipeline which takes hocr output (which includes the bounding box coordinates in the image) from (e.g.) tesseract and iterates over the data "recognized_string, bounding_box, source_image" to decide the styling of each word through some statistical analysis

- for instance, take the cropped bitmap of the term and compare it with the renderings of the styled variants of the recognized word and see what is more similar, and/or, check the thicknesses, spacing, slanting in the bitmap of the word...

I think it would be intriguing to develop it.

They want to be actually sovereign states. Having nukes is pretty much a prerequisite for the reasons GP explained. Even if, back when the countries you mentioned were developing their nuclear programs, their overt focus was mostly deterring USSR, it's hard to imagine they weren't thinking about their relationship with the USA either.

41 times in a day is a lot of door opens, and suggests they need a separate beverage fridge. That should’ve been the message - give the customer a solution, make a sale - but instead, they just went for shame.

Folks really underestimate how much opening them door (and then usually leaving it open while you deliberate) wastes energy, and food.

If I’m cooking three meals in the day, the fridge gets opened maybe five times - although I do have a separate little fridge for cold drinks.
No, that's a different, more complex experiment. This is just about adding a detector to one of the slits so you can tell which slit each electron is passing through.

Here is a more complete explanation:

The delayed choice quantum eraser is a much more complex experiment.
The overwhelming majority of Indians are supportive of people from other countries practicing Yoga, even if it is for physical health. The Indian government itself events for the International Day of Yoga.

So, even if one thinks that cultural appropriation is a thing, the culture where Yoga originated is perfectly happy with the appropriation.
I’m on leave from my job, which gives me a plethora of free time at the moment. (Usually while on my job, I’m really busy with two kids etc). It is an amazing contrast to my usual workweek. However, in relation to this topic: I automatically fill in productive tasks, and spend the days with stuff that needs to be done. I’ve also devoted a lot if attention to exercise and dietary constaints, so I lost a lot of weight.

I guess, if I would continue for a long time I would either pick up gaming with the aim of becoming skilled, or do something productive, like start some programming tasks or similar.

Right now I have a month left.

BTW my main goal for the time being is to experience boredom (where I’m partly succeeding). That way I can hopefully look back at this time and recall why I’m usually busy and why it is a good thing.
> nothing will happen, because matrix uses strict versioning of protocol

Bingo! You've precisely stated the reason, why Matrix is a product and will always be a product, and never a protocol. In real world, third party servers will never be on the same version of protocol.

A few years ago [1] people here explained to Matrix developers that "single monolithic versioned protocol" that is NOT the way to build federation, ant that it is silly to assume that everyone will magically update once the new version comes out, but they were preaching to deaf ears.

It doesn't matter too much (for the web) as you can use <picture> and <source> and specify multiple jxl/avif/webp/jpeg sources, and the browser will choose the first type it understands.
These elements are widely supported.

Hopefully JXL doesn't become yet another image format (927)... some features of it are incredible. For example, you can have mixed lossless/lossy content in one image. No longer will you need to choose between a lossy or lossless format: the encoder would intelligently segment the image.
1. My next door neighbor, a healthy 80 year old and good friend, took the first shot as soon as he was able to. Within hours he had to be rushed to the hospital where he was in ER for five days.

He returned home and called it a fluke. A month later he got the second shot, but stayed at the medical center for watching. Good thing too, since he soon passed out and was in the hospital for a week (though not ER).

He has decided to skip the third shot. He never had Corona.

2. Four buildings away, a story with a thirty-something year old man. Someone I have met but do not know him well.
Took the first shot and was immediately hospitalized.

3. The father of a friend who lives on the other side of town. Never met the father, but am friends with his son and believe he did not make up the story.

4. The aforementioned nurse's mother - I know her family very well, and have met the mother at least once a few years ago.

Real people. I know that I am just a person on the internet and there is no way I can prove it without giving actual names (and even that might not help). But try looking for a community that has close connections with their parents (NY or Miami) and I am sure you will find plenty of similar cases.
Hear hear! Cars and technology has a lot of catching up to do when it comes to safety. For example, I recently changed from Android to iOS for a better driving experience (I thought) since Android Auto was a bit laggy. While CarPlay is more fluid seemingly (which could also be from the hardware upgrade), what's worse is the UX downgrade that happen when I went from Android Auto to CarPlay.

I have a million of examples where the UX sucks, but I discovered something downright dangerous (and should possibly even be illegal): If you're using Google Maps/Waze for navigation and you receive a call, then the entire screen gets covered with the phone number and the answer button, while you're driving and using the navigation! Absolutely bonkers how somebody thought it was a good idea.

Never before have it been as clear that the people building these things (like CarPlay) never actually tried to use their own stuff.
Do you have any stats or research to back up your analysis or is this just a gut feeling?

If we are doing gut feelings, I have to say I also saw the worst of humanity. I saw a political party politicize masks. This put my family in danger for political gain and I don’t see myself forgetting that anytime soon.

As to specifics, what would you have done differently?
This has to rank near the top of the most vain thing I've ever heard before. Thanks for sharing.
While it is a large language, by now it is probably still smaller than C++20, C# 10, Common Lisp, Python 3.7 or GHC Haskell. :)
> Who cares what it was / wasn't part of

You can wipe it away like that, but it is the entire point of Chinese leadership since a long time, even opposing parties, that what once was China will be China again. So the 'who cares' is the vital point in why they are doing this; they care very much, not about the pieces of land or the people, but just the simple fact that they consider it China because it was taken from them (and they always said they will get it back) no matter who say they own it now (Taiwan is not uniformly recognised as a state). And I believe many (majority?) on the mainland agree with this, even if they don't agree with the CCP.
Or exactly the stuff for some gun nuts.

I assume certain actual gun nuts are nuts about those kinds of guns just like some car enthusiasts are enthusiasts about old impractical cars?
I didn't understand what you were trying to say. My point is Matrix is not suitable for federation because it has characteristics that prevent creation, deployment and usage of multiple competing implementations.
I don’t think the outcome is that surprising. Regardless of the merits of this person’s complains toward Apple, it’s hard to see an employer put up with this kind on incessant broadcast to the public place about sensitive matters.

The adult way to handle this would be to complain internally, and it it fails go public once, and then move on to either discuss it in good faith with Apple or litigation.

What would Apple have to win with her? Looking at the Twitter stream I feel like no matter what they do, it will never be enough. So firing her is the only possible avenue. At this stage the price of litigation is probably less than the reputational costs in the long run.

The whole episode about her boobs is mesmerizing. I’m not saying the attitude of Apple sort of enticing their employees to use to personal accounts is not problematic. But even my horny self would think twice about sending a nude using my work phone. And if I did, I suppose I would come back to my senses eventually and delete those. She’s a grown up, work at a tech company, and has heard of fappening.
Hah, completely agree :P. Instagram is included in that list, unfortunately and unsurprisingly.
Note that my Debian's `rm` happily supports terminating flags using `--` when necessary, so wanting to support `--` syntax doesn't have to come at the expense of writing -r last.

Almost always, if I'm inputting `rm` manually in a shell, I don't need `--`; very few filenames on my disk start with -.

Infosec researchers say Apple’s bug-bounty program needs work
Hey, I'm Nik. Started this little side project to help myself and others rapidly launch and test new business ideas.

Here's how it works:
1) Select a business idea
2) Get the APP template
3) Customise it (e.g. localise it, adapt it for a new vertical)
4) Launch and test

Templates are built on top of Bubble.io (No-Code, super functional & fast to customise).

APP Templates are inspired by new funding rounds, Product Hunt launches, CBInsight/Crunchbase data etc.

Let me know what you think!
As the sibling comments are pointing out, yes, it actually was seriously considered for a while. Even today there are people like Roger Penrose who believe there is some link between consciousness and the measurement problem.

Even more, there are many interpretations of QM where the classical world is only an illusion of the observer essentially.
It's both racist and sexist that Ashley thinks kimonos are female attire and that opening a kimono is sexual.

If your mental image of a kimono wearer is a vulnerable Japanese woman, as it may be if you are an American that's still reverberating with echos of WW2 racism, then Ashley's disgust makes some sense.

> if you need the software deployed to make real business it just doesnt matter

No wonder AWS can get away with the prices they have since people like you (and many more VC funded startups) simply have zero care about the price.

For people who run "real" businesses (meaning you need to have a larger income than expense [meaning, everything not VC-funded]), price is always a part of the calculations, even when it comes to hosting.
Exactly. It was more than 6 months late not '10 Weeks'.

The users do not care if it is native or not. As long as it exists on their platform of choice, they will use it.

The fact that it was not on Android in the first place, then being copied by the existing competitors and lockdowns lifting is the reason why the hype fizzled quickly and by the time they finished the Android app, it was already too late.
You're muddying the waters here. If you're saying "I/we don't care about a notion of state in Haskell", that's fine; I can't force you to care about something you don't care about. I'm just saying if you did care to, you very well could find a pretty meaningful and useful definition for "state".

The thing is though, the fact that you don't doesn't imply state is meaningless or useless. After all, you're still going to face the fundamental limits on computation that are out there, regardless of the model of computation. It's not like switching to Haskell and beta-reductions suddenly lets you solve every problem instantaneously, right? You're still going to have just as hard of a time (if not harder!) solving a problem like TSP efficiently in Haskell, as you would in Python or Prolog.

Look at it this way: the only reason you wouldn't "care" about state would be that you already know how things are going to turn out, not because the whole notion is itself meaningless. If tomorrow you wrote a Haskell program that factored integers in time & space linear to the input size, you wouldn't toss it into the trash thinking "whatever, time and space are meaningless concepts in FP". You'd absolutely care. Not only would you care, but you'd safely assume everyone else would too. You'd either find a way to profit off those results, or you'd publish them with formal definitions and tell everyone and their grandmother how awesome and meaningful they are. You'd find them as far from meaningless as anything could be. Of course, you're probably not going to get that lucky, but your lack of luck or care for the concepts doesn't render the concepts themselves meaningless.

This is approximately what I do. I don't like eating a ton, so I try to strike a balance between aesthetics and deadlifting a lot.

Edit: for a balanced approach, the Youtuber Jujimufu is a great watch. He's a bodybuilder who also does acrobatics and competes in powerlifting, and will often spring a backflip after a really impressive lift (https://youtu.be/_ydPYzYCpgU). Truly impressive.
Open the FBP options screem by clicking the "FBP" button in the navigation bar at the top of the page.

Under the "Further options" heading there is a setting titled "News Sort: Most Recent". Tick that option, then click the "Save and Close" button.

As mentioned above this is not guaranteed to fix hiding the sponsored posts, but a lot of people are reporting success with it, as Facebook seem to pepper the "Top Posts" version of the Newsfeed with more ads than the "Most Recent" version, and "Top Posts" is Facebook's default setting for the Newsfeed.
The problem isn't anonymity as such. I don't think there would be much problem with anonymous posts, provided we could be confident the anonymous poster actually was just one guy who spoke for himself, at a reasonable rate.

But you have anonymous posters who speak under hundreds of names to give their opinions the illusion of popularity; argue with their own accounts to set up straw men and steer discussion away from things that threaten them, and post hundreds of times more than the average users.

I think there must be solutions to this, I'm sad so few people seem to be working on it. Shouldn't there be a way for instance, using good old fashioned cryptography (I.e. NOT some tradeable token junk), to leverage a strong ID service to prevent sockpuppeting in a forum without revealing much to either the forum owner or the ID service?

Once we had that - a basic safety that everyone you engaged with on a certain forum was a real person, and this person (whoever he was) didn't operate under other names on that forum (or if he had earlier names, that they were irreversibly retired) - a lot of sensible things would become possible which are largely pointless today, such as speaking limits and distributed/allotted moderation.
You don’t have to understand category theory to program in FP languages. But if we want to talk about the mathematical basis, you do need a common vocabulary at least to be able to communicate at all.

You could not really explain JIT compilation to someone not knowing anything about computers, could you?
That's fair. I really enjoy writing code that users will interact with, but I don't like writing CSS. I think no-UI frontend is the best descriptor.
They probably don’t want that.

They just don’t think it will happen.
My problem with a lot of this stuff is: why would a well informed user consent to any of it? If any of the tracking doesn't benefit them, then this whole consent model is just a charade to convince ourselves that we gave them a choice and they made it. Whereas if they had time and energy to think, we know what they would choose: the absolute minimum.
I like their approach, too. Just by looking at this project GitHub page, one can clearly see the list of supported features and not yet working/planned, which is essentially all I need from such a project. Seems obvious, but very few projects realize this/care enough to make it crystal clear like JB did.
I’d say the opposite. But it is interesting to compare to Chernobyl and how they couldn’t cure it til people took responsibility

The Jewish culture was very different in that era. At the time Spartans conquered the Messenians (establishing the Spartan culture as we know it), Israel and Judea were still in their First Temple period - a Yahwist monolatry. The hardline monotheism that is one of the defining features of Judaism today would not appear until a century later.

I think we need to distinguish between violence and capacity for violence. Yes, we should strive towards a society that tries to solve its problems without violence as much as possible. But new problems appear every now and then, and not all of them can be solved without violence, unfortunately. So we still have to be able to resort to it when needed.

> Why isn’t it the place of the government just to help businesses adhere to the laws

The government does a great job outlining exactly what the law is in great detail. It is the job of the companies general counsel to apply the law to their use-case. If they choose to play fast and loose with their interpretation of the law then they better have a good argument when they end up in court.

> Throw people in jail for malice, but not for mistakes or incompetence

This is not an individual making a mistake, it's a multi-billion dollar public company. Mistakes and incompetence are grounds for legal action. These are well established foundational laws that have been in place for decades. They have survived numerous different interpretations, and crypto is no different than the many other "new" financial instruments which came before it.

> The person does not come out of jail more competent nor unable to make mistakes.

The bar is set pretty high for white collar criminals. If you're an officer of a company and end up in prison, you most likely made some pretty egregious mistakes.
I just fixed it. That was caused by ANSI escape codes in Celery's output that I copied in one of my posts :shrug: Thanks again!
“Dismantling the nukes” doesn’t necessarily mean to monkey with the physical package. You can just change the alert level of the nuclear forces. Instead of paying man and women to operate the silos at hair trigger, you can pay them to move the warheads to storage where they protect them. It doesn’t have to be an all or nothing proposition.
The point of starting strength is also to do it until your beginner goals are done. At that point you are strong. What you do from there is up to you, and I doubt Rippetoe would care. If you add cardio and focus less on strength at that point, that's not a problem. The point he's always hammering in is to "get strong first". Strength lasts. But it does take time to build up.
