"This is literally all I'm asking.:"

You're asking to defraud people.

(i.e. invest in things that are securities, but without having to follow the securities regulations).

Sorry, but no.

This is not a matter of just 'risk' to you - you are allowed to take on as much risk as you want - you may need to be an accredited investor, sure, but you can still take on risk and invest in whatever you want.

As long as it's not a scam.

'We' (i.e. everyone else) does not want 'you' putting money in giant scam vehicles, they're toxic to a functioning market.

If you want to sell/buy/participate in a market for something that is like a security, then it has to follow securities regulations.

If you want to sell a drug that says that 'it cures cancer' - it has to be approved.

If you want to sell a car, it has to pass safety checks.

If you don't want to do those things, then you can go a place like Afghanistan to see how it works out. FYI even the Taliban (!) are trying to fight against fraud because they know it's bad.

There is no advantage to to society to skip these regulations. The only advantage to cheating on the regulations, is for early movers, to leverage themselves over dupes in an otherwise zero-sum game.

There are opportunities for things that transcend regulation but we don't have any examples of that quite yet.

For example, 'some future crypto' (not BTC or ETH) might provide the possibility for less oversight etc..
The process is cyclical.

Make, Cmake and autoconf offered solutions in this space, but for C/C++.

I do like what esbuild and swc are doing though.

I think the more 'magic' they bake in to help non-technical users, the more it makes it harder to understand how the thing works for everyone else. As you allude to, cars have some fundamental rules that don't tend to get broken. The steering wheel, accelerator and brakes for example are generally all in the same place and operate the same between models, brands, updates.
It is very easy for IT managers to put the blame on "hackers" intruding into the network, instead of assuming they created an insecure system. In many companies this can work.
The SEC actually recognizes the issue and is studying possible revisions though no changes have been made yet: https://www.sec.gov/files/review-definition-of-accredited-in...

There are some reasonable sounding ideas they list:

- Permit individuals with a minimum amount of investments to qualify as accredited investors.

- Permit individuals with certain professional credentials to qualify as accredited investors.

- Permit individuals with experience investing in exempt offerings to qualify as accredited investors.

- Permit knowledgeable employees of private funds to qualify as accredited investors for investments in their employer’s funds.

- Permit individuals who pass an accredited investor examination to qualify as accredited investors.
My reaction too. I would say the number of scraped tires due to wear far exceed those scrapped due to puncture. Also it looks like this airless tire contains much more rubber, that would increase the tire weight and would impact the fuel consumption. The final weight of rubber scrapped may also increase compared to conventional tiers. Airless tires have been discussed for many years, this is only marketing and brand PR.
I’m going to sell up my city house and get a little land in the country so we can be more self sufficient while shit increasingly hits the fan.

We in the first world need to radically reduce our consumption and reassess our relationship with this planet, and we need to do it now.
> Well, the 'climate clock' has only 8 years left before DEADline.

What DEADline? You mean to keep warming below 1.5°C? Do you suppose if we go ver by .1°, we all die? That's not how it works. It's better to limit warming, but there's no magic cutoff in which we all die. It's on a continuum, with more warming meaning the increase in the likelihood of extreme events and disruption. Also at some point, increase in the possibility of positive feedback, but that's likely above or near the maximum projected warming range 2.7°-4°C, and it's still a matter of degree.

The IPCC report does not say we all die in the current projected warming range, or that civilization collapses.

I find each Linux OS that’s based around a different package manager to generally feel like a different operating system. That’s my point.

The BSDs all have a common ancestor. The Linux’s tend to all have a GNU user space, the kernels are mostly the same, but the OS layout tends to differ in important ways.
Doesn't matter. A ton of people don't understand what URLs are or what an address bar is. Everything is treated like a search bar.
Usually the better publications have, or pay for, counsel for work related issues like this.

I don't think this will cost them their career. Every semi-intelligent person can see what's going on. It will certainly create some shortterm headaches though.

> this is a poor analogy because the IT department isn't doing something illegal

At what point does it cross the line into IT malpractice? I would say that not even bothering to verify the current user has the access to view what is being requested is well over that line.

When you're dealing with PII, HIPAA, etc, there should be a standard level of competence. If I go into a doctor's office with a runny nose, and they remove my liver, simply stating that they practiced medicine "poorly" shouldn't be a defense.
Not sure I see how. More like the records office decided that, rather than staffing the front desk to handle records requests, they instead just dumped an unlocked filing cabinet into an alcove off the hallway with an arrow pointing to it labelled "Health Care Plans". Essentially identical to blaming users for finding an unsecured S3 bucket or MongoDB instance: it's on the operator to secure the data.

> You can’t purge a cultural heritage—everyone in Japan learns Japanese history and ritual suicide is a notable part of that history.

Not sure where you get this idea, but this is grossly inaccurate.

Japanese culture is strongly revisionist. People don't talk about the war, much less teach about it. The 'old ways' and 'samurai heroism' was faulted for the mess in '40s. People make a sigh whenever such touchy topics come up. New Japan is a different beast.

As a consequence, we are seeing a generation which is severely confused on why WW2 happened. American pop culture is embraced with open arms, but they can't explain why Hiroshima happened at the hands of US. It's all faulted to grave mistakes on the 'old thinking' which is best left behind. Japan adopted modernism & became America's best buddies, ignoring the blemishes over 3 decades of Imperial japanese horrors. Older generation, who used to teach from experience of pre-war and neo-modern Japan, are dying off due to age. A significant chapter of history is being ignored by looking the other way. Look up the editorials of any Japanese weekly, and on any random week you will find some discussion on how they bemoan the growing dissonance between the post-war values of peace & the cultural change alongside the pseudo-aggression of some political parties, which eventually aims to remilitarize Japan at some point. (That's a story for another time or another thread)
This isn't really a problem the police can solve: criminals are all abroad.

This is a question of who is allowed non-in-person banking. And a few technology tweeks (getting rid of number spoofing). And education but that's a bit of a lost cause.

"Time brings all things to pass

There are no second chances

There's only this moment, and the next

Where everything you want will collide

With everything standing in your way

Purpose and meaning are not to be found in the laws of nature

It is our job to create them"

seconded, most "modern" cities evolved blindly but there's almost nothing required in dense urban areas in terms of mobility. biking, walking can do a lot. thinking people pay expensive cars and gym club to forget about their bills is such a sad joke.

> If reality is goverened by a mathematical structure, then there are a set of rules where it is no longer a simplified abstraction and there is no error term. Either A) there is a mathematical structure and we will iterate until we find it (or it is fundamentally unknowable, thanks Godel!) or B) our brains are evolved pattern recognizers, and we deem what is repeatable as "useful" and ignore the parts that don't repeat, building a world view based on logic that certainly exists locally but isn't the fundamental fabric of reality. Something like "free will" could only fit into scenario B.

I think that agentic, practical free will is entirely compatible with "A", and in fact relies on determinism for its operation. I think the common mistake that people make is that they think that the fact that only one outcome exists in the physical layer means that only one reality can exist in their decisionmaking. But the future worlds you evaluate as part of the process of making a decision are fundamentally a different kind of thing from the physically real world your decision actually plays out in - not in the sense that they're spiritual, or metaphysical, but in the sense that they're fictional constructs.

There is a philosophical difficulty here in that, when you evaluate possible worlds, it must be the case that, because you will only actually make one choice, the yous in all but one of the choices seem like they are being logically inconsistent.¹ That is, all but one of those futures are not just not real, but internally incoherent, in that the you in them made a choice that, as you will soon discover, they did not actually make. To resolve this, it is again important to firmly keep in mind that these worlds are not real, and the you in them is not real, and you can just say "in this imagined world, I made this decision because it is imaginary, and I (on the real level) am using this world to evaluate the outcomes of a choice." So there is no contradiction after all.

In summary: assuming that in reality only one outcome exists, your ability to simulate fictional outcomes to process the consequences of your decisions is unimpeded. That is what deciding is. That's all it ever was.

¹ A surprisingly hard-to-fix failure mode for decision theories goes like this: "Consider the possibility that I decide to do A. Looking at that future world, we can know that the output of my decision theory was A, thus proving that A is the best choice. Therefore, I should do A." Imo the correct fix is making the agent aware that this is a fictional world being evaluated by means of assuming A. So the conclusion that A is the best choice does not follow.

I don't care about what the issuers do and I am completely fine with high buyins to filter people out. I want the government out of it completely, but a special purpose accreditation test is fine as I only have issue with the wealth tests and the tests that require a sponsor. (even the series 65 test requires "good standing" as the article mentioned, which is more than just passing the test recently).

People don't need permission to fail financially, they can walk over to any casino and do that. It is merely happenstance that its two different governments regulating casinos (state) versus these particular capital formation rules (federal). But the user experience for the individual doesn't factor that in, and there shouldn't be a discrepancy at all. The argument in favor of "protecting people that actually need their money by deputizing everyone else" is so thin and weak. As we know, these kinds of "deputize everyone else" regulations only exist because a direct prohibition from the state to the individual would undermine at least one of the individual's constitutional rights.
Can you run Debian stuff on a RedHat chroot without needing different ABI compat libraries? Yes.

MongoDB and Elastic are successful because they are locking features behind a paid license. Does that make it a successful open source company?
Yup, the desktop metaphor. Basically the computer screen is like a desk, and each application is a paper/document on the desk that can lay on top of one another. Mouse cursor is more or less your finger/hand to interact with the “documents”.
Because the value of the crypto is ostensibly based on the performance of an underlying asset, hence then need disclosure.

It doesn't matter if you call it a 'stock or a crypto' - it's a security either way, is the point.

The reason there are APIs is that this is constantly changing.

Be aware that you get what you pay for. Even MaxMind offers a paid tier.

It also depends on your needs - are you geolocating servers, users, or infrastructure? Most suppliers focus on users.
Some just scrape registry data, which would put all of Level4 (infrastructure) in British Columbia. Mobile users are another world, there you have to go through the telecoms (geolocating the NAT is little help).

It also matters where your interest lies. Providers are better in some countries than others.

Back when I cared about this, I used a measurement network to measure round-trip-times, and found most providers to have >10% error (violating speed-of-light).
I wouldn't be surprised if the governor acted more because he sensed an opportunity than out of fear of the story. By playing the story this way, he gets to act out the feelings of a constituency that feels judged by educated urbanites and unable to keep up with a changing world. He is standing up for the honor of Missouri against the sneering condescension of the fancy city reporter. From that point of view, he isn't dealing with a threat so much as feasting on a political opportunity.
There is no point. It's just self-perpetuating cycle. At least for a while...
The crucial difference between having a vector of components is in access patterns - in ECS you iterate over entities that have a given set of component, using queries, with entities that have vectors of components you're still iterating over entities. For something like a roguelike you're generally just dealing with one entity at a time, so this is a very important distinction.

That said, I don't think just having a vector of components is good design, you can do a lot better than that. I think the most natural thing to do in most roguelikes is to have an "Entity" type that's shared between players and monsters and has things that you'd expect those things to have, along with an inventory and potentially some kinds of tags governing behavior. Type Objects etc fit nicely into that kind of scheme.

>and Entity enumeration without archetype filtering may eventually become a performance hazard if done too frequently and naively,
I'm specifically talking about turn based tile based games, here, so iterating over all entities matching a given set of components is rarely going to be a performance concern. It's far more important to make sure you're efficient when it comes to things like AI routines and pathfinding.

People of all ages suffer from confirmation bias. Analogies can be useful because they allow someone to appreciate the logic of an argument while temporarily dissociating from strongly-held opinions. After the framing moves back to the question under debate, the logic might stick. At least all parties might understand everyone’s perspective better after a few analogies are exchanged.

Well they changed an id number. I guess the real life version would be changing the SSN number on the form.
I don't think changing the name is a fair comparison.

This definition of fraud doesn't define the word "defraud"? I don't know how I'm supposed to see if it fits or not.

It can't mean any action, or going into a store, lying about my name, and asking what aisle has baked beans would fit. Because that has "deceit" and "any service".

If I interpret things as the service being minimal and provided for free, so that I'm not deceptively getting the service, then we have to look at what actually gets sent to me, and whether it's "property, money or valuable security". And since it's just a copy of the data sent at no cost, it's much harder to argue fraud exists.
>Consider that for anyone wanting to start such a thing for local news, the barriers to entry are really, really low.

You're effectively talking about blogs, "twitter journalism" and freelance journalism of the type you might see from Forbes. It is, by and large, crap and incomparable to the kind of journalism that dedicated professionals used to provide before cable TV ratings and algorithms destroyed the incentives.

In states that have state-level IT departments (usually, in addition to opposed to agency-internal ones), the state-level one mostly does IT project and contracting policy and oversight (often limited to large projects for active overisght), and maybe executes enterprise contracts for infrastructure that is used across agencies.

For an in-production system, there is a good chance that they have no responsibility for ongoing maintenance, and no special information beyond what is on the website as to who is responsible for maintenance.

You are better off contacting (anonymously or otherwise) the responsible agency. But, sadly, probably the most effective way to get it changed (after the flurry of butt covering) is to anonymously notify the media.
I wonder if these are attempts to drive up the “interest” metric, with the hypothesis that the more search for a specific string, the result that is exact match gets higher ranking?

Same for Catholics and most of Christians, hence no suicide attacks.
This comment has a sexist smell. I wonder if the same criticism would be leveled at an identical story written by a man.

Obviously, I have no idea what goes on in other peoples heads.
>Republican state Rep. Tony Lovasco, who according to his legislative biography has worked in software deployment and maintenance, tweeted Thursday that “it’s clear the Governor’s Office has a fundamental misunderstanding of both web technology and industry standard procedures for reporting security vulnerabilities.

>“Journalists responsibly sounding an alarm on data privacy is not criminal hacking,” he said.

I worry that we're heading in a direction where somebody like Lovasco won't be willing to break with somebody of the same political party even for something like this.

It's already incredibly easy to code this story as a PR "win" for Democrats by embarrassing a prominent Republican.

So then isn't giving a common-sense perspective in this circumstance kind of just a betrayal of everything your side stands for?

I mean it's pretty unlikely that anything of legal import actually happens to the reporter, so for the "greater good" of accomplishing your wider agenda, or perhaps even more importantly preventing the other side's agenda, it might be better to just stay quiet and let this blow over as partisan bickering.

There’s some truth to that – remember the surveys where parents said that they could imagine driving an SUV but not a minivan if they divorced & were dating again? – but they were also subsidized. If the price of gas wasn’t artificially low, or they had to meet the same safety and pollution standards as everything else, they’d be less popular. We did at least close the Hummer tax write-off, but we should be doing more on the safety front since SUV drivers reversed a decades-long run of fatality reductions.
No better than patent trolls
Gaming consoles are also used like this as well, given the web browser, app store and media device that they are.
I'm not trying to defend myself or anything since I don't even have a car, but when I did, it was always an SUV. It wasn't so much a matter of preference as necessity. I'm not exactly huge, only 6'2", but if I try to drive my wife's GTI, I'm hunched over and hitting my head on the ceiling. Only way to do it is leaning severely back with the seat reclined. Trying to be a backseat passenger in an average sedan is completely impossible. Even though it's at least possible to drive a car like that, if not comfortably, it definitely isn't safe, since visibility is shot to shit with the tiny mirrors and your head and elbows running into something every time you try to turn to cover your blind spots.

Contrast that with an SUV. No need to lean or hunch. You can see everything without trouble. You can move without trouble. It's actually possible to use the backseat.
Nope, no way. Your analogy is wrong.

A better analogy would you asking for your files, and then the secretary taking you to a filing cabinet containing everyone's files right there with yours. You don't have to lie about who you are, you can just look at other files because they're right there in the place that you were just given access to.
