Hispanic/Latino is 16.6% of all vaccinated while making up 17.2% of population.

Black is 10.0% of all vaccinated while making up 12.4% of population.

White (non-hispanic) is 61.5% of all vaccinated while making up 61.2% of the population.

So we're talking ~2.4 points behind at worst (stats are from the CDC link in your article). For comparison we're talking about more than a 10 point gap when comparing counties by political affilation. https://www.kff.org/policy-watch/the-red-blue-divide-in-covi...

Yes, I understand that a regex isn't a long-term solution, but if you've actually seen any of these pop up on YouTube (they're on the front page of my recommendations right now; I've seen probably 30 just today), you'll know what I'm talking about. These are what I'd call "low-hanging fruit" spam – extremely easily distinguished from real content. After months of it happening (and I've seen literally hundreds of the exact same type of video recommended to me), a simple solution would undoubtedly be effective, or at least better than nothing. Get a single intern to double-check the ones that your algorithm identifies to avoid FPs. If the scammers get more sophisticated, cross that bridge when you get to it. But solve the immediate, easy issues now. It's seriously not that hard. This isn't the kind of difficult ML-generated spam that you're probably thinking of, and I agree - at that point it does become a game of cat and mouse. At that point, I'd be understanding when it sneaks through the cracks.

I've dealt with similar issues in my own work (I run a platform with a lot of content posted daily and have multiple tiers of spam control in place). The spam I'm seeing on YouTube is not the difficult kind, yet they're doing nothing to deter it. That's my complaint.

I've probably reported hundreds of these, so at the very least, stop recommending videos with the exact same title, description and content to me. It's ridiculous.
Semantics are contextual, and your legacy bread / legacy software parallel doesn't convince me. Is it a precise term? no, but most ppl here will have a good idea of what it means.

Ah yes.

I have gotten these before, but not produced this way. The ones I got looked like they were written by an underpaid employee.

They have had signature machines for years though. The Kennedy's used them a lot.

The only thing I would experiment with this project is adding significant error, and randomness to the writing. It would look more realistic?

On a personal note, when I get these (Anderson Painting likes this approach.); I throw away the ad away immediately, or if printed on good stock paper--I save to pick up dust.

Nothing wrong with it. I just don’t think it is what most people would call “making it.”

I personally consider “making it” being happy with what you’re doing, even if most other people wouldn't consider it "making it."

But if you're someone who goes through the effort to lie about working for NASA and all that, I'm guessing this wasn't their idea of making it.
>Equally horrible is that it seems like there's no rush to find any accountability at any level for what happened here.

It goes a step further, with the CENTCOM Commander saying that DoD "stands by the intelligence", which is just such an absolutely insane thing to say given what we know now and what the NYT reported. The "Over The Horizon" "strategy" appears to be a political one that is trying to be sold to us. Suppose that Russia droned 10 civilians to death in Syria. What would the US and its media be calling for? I think we all know. It's some kind of trap where these flag officers won't (or can't) resign because that would be an admission of deep failure that stretches across 20 years of toiling in that country. Seems like a political calculation this administration deems too costly right now.
The overlap between would-be successful founders and people that can not only pass the interview exams, but function within a FAANG is probably very slim.

You need high conformity and extreme inside the box thinking to thrive in FAANG. Conversely, you need essentially the opposite set of traits to be a successful founder.
> I don't know that there is much the government can do.

One super obvious thing the government could do, that many other governments do successfully, is to simply run child cares. First grade used to be the first year of schooling then kindergarten was introduced, and now pre-K is common in a lot of places. Just keep going down a few more years, and boom, child care problem solved. This would solve a lot of the disincentives to having children, so you would think the people complaining about the low birth rate in the US would be in favor of it, and yet ..
Never fight a school in court. The school always wins.
I often think about this in regards to rules enforcement... as we get better and better at catching rule breakers because of increased surveillance, we run into an issue where the rules do not make sense anymore.

This is because our current rules were designed for a world with worse enforcement. Take, for example, the speed limit and ticket costs. Both the speed limit and price of a ticket for breaking the speed limit were set for a world of imperfect enforcement. We assume someone who is pulled over for speeding was probably speeding many times before they were pulled over, so we have the penalty set relatively high. The penalty was not designed to be given every time someone goes 2 MPH over the speed limit.

We really need to rethink the rules if we drastically change enforcement.

> There is a gas station attendant working at 4am because they only cost $8/h and the company makes enough revenue during that hour that that is worth it.

Usually, because fewer people are willing to work late nights, pay is usually higher for the night shift. This is often called a "shift differential".

> But right now, 4 out of 5 gas stations are open simply because they can be, no matter how useful they are.

If there was no economic advantage to being open, the store would be closed.
I don't think this is correct. 128-bit RISC-V has nothing to do with SIMD, at all. It was created to future-proof RISC-V wrt. exascale distributed computing, where even a full 64-bit address space might be insufficient.
Why would you think that once a company started that they'd never grow/improve their offerings. SpaceX started with Falcon 9, grew to Falcon Heavy, and now working on Starship.

You'll obviously have an impact on the local caldera system.

Goethermal energy radiates outward from Earth as it is anyway. The net radiatiative flow is low, about 0.087 W/m^2 (about 47 TW total).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_energy_budget#/search

A "geothermal site" is a place where that net emissivity is much higher than the average. In Yellowstone that can be 100W/m^2 (and I suspect far higher though in smaller concentrations).

https://www.usgs.gov/volcanoes/yellowstone/questions-about-h...

A principle effect is that though it might be possible to extract heat more rapidly from a caldera, that caldera itself needs to recharge, and the thermal flux through the Earth's crust, magma, and mantle is itself finite. Pump out a sufficient amount of heat and you'll end up cooling the rock in the vicinity of your geothermal plant.

There's also effects of groundwater extraction (which usually accompanies geothermal generation), and potential contamination (minerals, possibly heavy metals) from the geothermal source.

And there are all but certainly other unintended consequences. Though we do have 50+ years of experience with industrial-scale commercial geothermal generation in the US, Iceland, Japan, New Zealand, and Philippines. A surprisingly large percentage of the active geothermal potential is already utilised (Indonesia and Kenya are two of the larger remaining opportunities).

My read is that geothermal won't solve our energy demand on its own, but could contribute quite considerably to the mix. In Africa especially it has the potential to make a major impact, with a potential that's many times present generation capacity in the region.

Experience with low-grade geothermal power is far less promising. Drilling is expensive, even trials have proved dangerous and vastly underperformed expectations (see Australia's Habenero project as one such failure). Geothermal as an adjunct to local heating and cooling loads (district thermal energy storage) seems a more viable option.
Yep good point. Thinking in good/bad guy term makes everything a zero sum game. Finding ways to turn it into a win-win situation makes a huge difference. And often it all comes down to how a solution is presented to a decision maker and how much the decision maker feels that he/she is in control. The perception of the solution is often more important than the technical details of the solution.
Definitely anecdata. My kids are clueless to the wizardy I work, so are their friends.
> The same rules that got previous governments

Completely agree.

> Who would they report to? Some magically incorruptible entity?

This has been worked out quite successfully in other democracies. Laws that legislate rights of the Indian police force are one of the most archaic and are a carry over from the British times when its principal purpose was the subjugation of the population so that they could be exploited in an orderly fashion. Unfortunately, but very understandably, the current crop of politicians are unwilling to change that.

As you surely know, judiciary enjoys more but not complete autonomy. There is a turf war going on right now with Modi government trying to maneuver into a position of appointing judges who are more willing to dance to his tune.

Technically India is not a democracy. Democracy is perhaps the best means of sharing power that we have, but that should not turn us blind to its egregious blind spots. Ku Klax Klan, the Nazis, slave ownership, etc etc had full support of the democratic institutions of their times. That does not make any of them right. India is having its own KKK moment right now.

You could make similar arguments about any government job that requires lots of manpower (schools, the military, sanitation, whatever), and yet they do find the workers. That's not a problem. Your average government job is a lot better than your average fast food/retail job in terms of pay/benefits/job stability, so they'll definitely find the employees.
No I did not mean that. I meant what I said, not whatever you read. Which one of us is on drugs is up for debate. I do not believe the NSA is sitting around studying X-Files. They largely are analyzing and investigating large quantities of child porn and exploitation from southeast asia, rape and abuse in the middle east, cartel executions and kidnappings, war crimes and African slave trade, organ harvesting in China, among other things.

Given the other responses, I wasn't the only one who was aware of the content on Freenet 20 years ago.

And the quotes around "darkweb" were largely to abstract it as a concept of urban legend itself, so I guess we can agree on that.

> Good point. it doesn't imply though that the 4am worker would be left doing nothing.

This assumes the worker isn't doing something valuable during the day. I worked some night shifts to pay for college.

> day time, for 8 dollars per hour or more,

I got paid more for the night shift than the workers on the day shift. Fewer people wanted to be awake at 3:30AM. Even fewer wanted to work.

> Arguably, any instance where such enforcement mechanism fails to happen in response to an infraction in law, or fails be applied consistently to all actors, is a failure of said enforcement mechanism in totality

No, that’s not ‘arguable’. It’s ridiculous and obviously wrong.

> there is much point in me spoon feeding you more stuff

Or, far more likely, you simply can’t actually produce a good example.

Given that you could simultaneously prove me wrong and inform other people by doing so, I think it’s clear this is just bluster.
> "you do absolutely give up ... speed of development"

That is the advertising claim, not substantiated.

A more plausible explanation for "the majority ... in managed languages" is: it enables employing lower-skilled, thus more easily obtained, labor. It doesn't so much matter how fast development is. Such practices commonly split a simple job among five or more people (a "team") who, collectively, probably cost more than one more-skilled employee who could do it all in much less time, but who is hard to attract to do it at all, and anyway better used elsewhere.

One line near the beginning stands out to me though.

"...that monitors students’ school-issued Google and Microsoft accounts."

This is activity within an account that was intended for school use, or possibly, on a school issued computer. There should be an expectation of some level of lack of privacy within those areas.

If they want privacy from the school, use an account or computer the school didn't give them. Yes, some people may not have the resources to get their own. But that doesn't mean the school has to let them do anything they want on the the resource that the did give them.
