This moral ambiguity is the underlying thrust in almost all comparative Sino/Western discussions, it just doesn't work.

Removing false information from some public social networking sites (and all sorts of other things like violent threats, depictions of violent crimes, kiddie porn etc), is not the same thing as removing arbitrary comments, information about the CCP, imprisoning or killing journalists and citizens for speaking basic, actual truths.

Westerners are absolutely free to post COVID rubbish, or say almost anything they want about 'the President' on their own websites and communications if they want to.

That said, it's going to take more data from these supposed financial posts (and more transparency on their sources) in order for us to give it legitimacy.
Allsides is pretty crappy, in using big wide groupings and in how they assign them and in the lack of detail; Ad Fontes Media is much better in every way.

Yeah - I used xmonad on arch for a bit in college for the novelty and agree. Magnet on macOS is good enough. The other thing about tiling window managers is often the graphics of the window are really ugly with bad fonts - not specifically a tiling issue but another thing I didn't like about using it.

I use a large high res display too - the advantage from tiling just isn't that real or important imo.
It might have been patented. By the time the patent runs out the alternatives have become standardized and refined enough that the original can't compete.
Prototypes and early models are extremely expensive but there are encouraging signs that fusion plants could be cheaper. The technology is inherently safer so site-preparation would be cheaper (can be a massive bill for fission), the same consideration could lead to factory-style production of magnets and other similar components, more interest from the public (safe, climate-friendly) and any sea-touching countries (energy-security) would mean more demand pushing economies of scale further, safer means less time passing certification, etc.

Prime Gaming has been giving "free games" to people for years. They already have a huge "back catalog" for some users in the weird bare bones "Twitch Launcher". Expanding that into a full store wouldn't be the hardest play for them; if anything the surprise is that they've been so slow to do that.

> The 1% there is that “the criminal won’t get caught”.

So the 99% is for the facial recognition system to identify criminals?

What error rate does the best facial identatification have? If it's not zero then my original point still stands. You are throwing a lot of innocent people into the judicial system. Or at best being pestered by police for no good reason.

> Also what you described can happen to you today as well. It’s the imperfect system we live in.

That's correct. So instead of improving it, you suggest to automate it? This sounds insane to me. Why would you automate something that you know is defective? Check the user support of all the top tech companies who use "AI" to automate things. Now check the worst of the worst customer support of the top tech companies. There's an overlap. And if you want to expand (*censored*) tech support to the criminal justice system, people like me are going to get upset.
That’s great but that’s an archival project, not a social network. There’s room for smaller networks to exist on the fringes but we’re unlikely to see a Reddit that looks like Reddit overtake Reddit on its own merits. The same for Facebook, or TikTok or Twitter.

From 2014 (when NFC support was introduced) until 2017 (when iOS 11 was released) there was no way for 3rd party apps to use NFC on iOS at all; only apps by Apple could use NFC.

There is still no technical ability for 3rd party payment apps to be able to be used from the lock screen like Apple Pay, and according to other comments Apple Pay has some special hardware access (to be able to work faster?).

>Because you expect Amazon to put security priority over new features and profit?

I don't know what you think Amazon stands for, but Amazon runs the largest cloud hosting service in the world - AWS, which not only runs a large number of other large companies but governments as well. I know, first hand, that their datacenter security protocols are state of the art.

Amazon has a much larger surface attack area so if they were playing fast and loose with security, chances are we would know already.

How to Install Arch Linux with a DE (step by step instructions)
I did something similar with a solar oven. Painted a mason jar black and then used aluminum foil to build a concave reflector. It worked ok, but I was able to get water above the pasteurization point (160* F).
Slight miscalculation which should have been obvious:

"For example, Backblaze B2’s free operations threshold is capped at 2,500 a day, and if R2 simply let you make a GetObject request every second of every day, that would be something like 86,400 FREE daily Gets, which would cost ~$335 daily on B2 or $122,000 a year."

Backblaze B2 Class B operations are priced at $0.004 per 10k operations which the author did not take into account, so the calculation above is off by a factor of 10,000. The real cost for 1 GET per second for a whole year on Backblaze B2 is $12.59.

These things are indeed not appropriate for kids under three but when things break and spill components all over the place it becomes a more general issue.
The materials cost was about $1400, half of that is the panels the rest is wire, conduit, brackets, etc. A solar permit in my area costs $1200+ . The high permit costs would make a system this small uneconomic. Local codes vary but in my jurisdiction I could avoid need for permit by putting the panels on my shed instead of my house and using the power for the water heater instead of connecting to the grid.

The payback is 3-6 years depending on what ratio of peak/off-peak power pricing you assume.

My bad, so they don't do anything because the only source of a resolution with any actual teeth China has power over. That's on top of the other stuff like the economic reliance on China for a lot of manufactured goods around the world.

China has also spent a lot of time pouring loans and projects (often extractive) into small poor countries through Belt and Roads giving them a fair amount of power in the general assembly because each country gets a single vote in the GA.
No. The car will still be running even if we fully stop right now. There is an excess of carbon in the atmosphere, there are feedback loops that are emitting carbon due to the already existing warming, you don't shutdown the greenhouse effect with just a halt or slowdown of emissions because what is already there will keep doing its job.

What you can do switching to nuclear (in some industries, at least) is to not increase as much as previous years what we add to the problem.

It's not stopping, nor slowing down or keeping the current speed, but just accelerating a bit less than before.

Massive carbon capture is needed (orders above the gigantic amount that is added each year, because you need to take out the carbon emitted in the previous years too, and there is the feedback loops playing too), along with bringing new emissions sharply down. And all of that at least for many years after reaching below preindustrial carbon levels (global temperature should drop enough to turn off the positive feedback loops).
Yeah, C is really easy to interface with assembly language.

My suspicion, having worked at google for a while, is that this is a parser / version eligibility bug. Someone probably put the list of major versions where this is supported, and 15 was not there :)

Things like this happened every new ios release. Going from 9->10 was a problem for example because regex used was limiting major version to single digit etc.

Maybe that Twitch is competent in the password department so they decided against it? But thinking about it, although it's unclear if two-factor secrets are included in the leak, but maybe the two-factor secrets may be usable to someone who has already the password of a victim. Unless it's the dongle-type one (WebAuthn/FIDO), the secret is common to both the server and the user, so two-factor bypass is almost certain in this case.
I grew up when cash was more essential, and my mom would use my piggy bank as an ATM. If there were a situation where she needed a dollar (or a twenty), she would let me know and then pry into my jar full of cash. If she did so, she knew to pay back an extra dollar down the line.

Part of it was her convenience, but it taught me about growing my money. As long as I had some cash available, there was a possibility that it would accumulate interest.
After taxes, insurance, retirement, etc... you're taking home maybe $100k of that. That's "modest home in a nicer suburb" level money.
I googled what egress meant.

> when that data is retrieved from the cloud, providers will then charge large fees; this is what’s known as a data egress.

There are many cloud providers seem to be not charging for egress.
More or less the same in China
No, Fusion can not put the brakes on climate change. It is the best long term option for generating heat, but the problem is not about what we add, but instead about what we remove.

Carbon Capture is what will matter. Carbon taxes are an interesting attempt at political solutions, but this requires coordination between Russia, CCP, and the USA. We need something that can be done despite what other foreign powers can be made to do, lest we want to wage WW3 over this.

Carbon Capture is also proportionately underfunded compared to renewables. Global warming is not something that will stop when we stop being bad; it has momentum. Greenhouse gases are like a blanket we’ve been wrapping around ourselves. We have to unwrap to get back to normal: carbon capture.
> Having the CEO try to dunk on applicants during interviews

Wasn't the CEO, but the CTO at a startup I was applying with years ago swooped into an interview at a place I was pretty sure I wasn't going to accept an offer from, while I was at the whiteboard solving some stupid thing.

He immediately started arguing with me about some code on the side that was from a previous question, kept interrupting me when I tried to correct him, and then told me I should be cleaner about my work when he finally figured out his mistake.

I thanked the person actually interviewing me (not Mr. CTO) for his time, picked up my stuff and walked out without another word.

What are good money habits?

Inflation eats savings and debt is incredibly cheap at the moment. Being 'good' with money basically keeps you at the exact same socioeconomic level but risk-taking and entrepreneurship generally correlate with social mobility.

Anyhow, IMO, make them do chores for an 'allowance'. Teach them that work = making money. As they get older you should instil in them that making more money is far superior to all the saving in the world, especially at a young age. Education and risk-taking in your 20's is far superior to trying to save for retirement from 20 years old.
This was one of the most surprising things, to me, before I learned about any of this stuff.

inbound traffic (ingress) is free, almost universally.

outbound traffic (egress) is $insane, almost universally.

It's where most of the cloud providers make most of their money, as far as I can tell.

I'm a fan of murdering egress fees, so therefore I am a fan of whatever Cloudflare R2 turns out to be. As long as they get rid of egress, I'll cheerlead them for life.

I wonder how much I paid over the last 15 years for the 198 games in my Steam library. Not that much, I suspect between all the Humble Bundles and steam sales of yore. Nevertheless I was pissed when I had to get Origin in order to even play Mass Effect 3, and I never even considered the epic store, so I think the theory of library investment is sound. Steam has a good head start on a lot of us.
I’m really impressed with this article and the others linked. The bits on professional services and thinking backwards were extremely helpful!
I am going to speculate here, so if I'm wrong please point it out.

Here, the number of steps directly affect the time.

In the first approach, the ".get()" method first analyses the type of "some_dict" and then uses an internal variable (the ones surrounded by double underscores) to try and fetch the value by using the provided key. If the key is present, then the value is returned, if not then a default value is returned. So if the key does not exist, the returning the default value saves 1 step (that of fetching the value from the map)

In the second approach, the exception raises the number of steps because the type of error has to be determined and the stack is traced every time an exception is raised. So the more exceptions are raised, the slower the code gets.

I tested this with 3.9.7 right now and in my testing, the runtime of first approach was virtually unchanged, while the second one was faster if exceptions were raised ~12% of the time or less. (I ran both 10 million times)
I've been using Wasabi for a project where cost is more important than anything (i.e. a side project with reasonable scale that can't accept income) and on that front it is great. (S3 costs have been atrociously high to us sometimes.) For CDN-type resources we do a Wasabi bucket with Cloudflare with caching set very high. Reliability has been the only problem; it's not awful by any means, but there are a lot more "hiccups" using it. You get what you pay for, I guess.

That said I'm looking to see if just using R2 is a big improvement. It'll cost more but the reliability and performance might be worth it for us.
Yeah, that's why I haven't dared put them in front of my B2 buckets, even though they have the Bandwidth Alliance.

The ONLY card I have in Apple Pay is my Amazon Prime credit card. It’s the only credit card I have (other than my corp Amex, which is used once every few years for work). Every purchase gets you dollars on your Amazon account, so I actually use those rewards (versus the other “points” or “miles” I’ve had over the years and never used).

To the story itself: we’re at an interesting junction where your “phone” is absolutely a company’s product and they should be able to define the experience, but also becoming an essential utility in many societies where certain limitations are harmful. I’m still unsure where I land on some of these cases.
