For anyone who didn't know this: tomato, tomatillo, potato, eggplant, pepper and tobacco are all from the same family Solanaceae aka nightshade.

There are many other plants in the same family (they have worldwide distribution), but a lot of them are poisonous.

Even more fun: It's possible to graft plants of different species within the family, so you can create a plant that grows both potatoes and tomatoes.

"Standard library" is a funny way of putting it; it's usually called a "literary canon"... Oh, that kind of language!

(Honest first-split-second reaction.)
Because those schemes are going great. Keep trying though.
I predict we'll get more and more evidence that "long covid" isn't as real as people think it is.
Definitely a good opportunity for selling the higher value tomatoes restaurants and some upscale markets desire. I like the emission benefits of shorter supply chains too. Best of luck, I doubt our tomatoes will be competing with each other anytime soon.
This is the _biggest_ thing holding MacOS back?
"Extreme couponers" is the wrong term to describe these folks. They were coupon counterfeiters. The article even states how the perpetrators didn't use the coupons themselves.

Pricing is on the nutty side. You can do a lot better than that for $250 nowadays, though it won't be as compact. That said, I'm looking for something like this but able to take 3.5" hard drives (2 of them) and at half the price. Doesn't need to be pretty or have a screen.
This seems a little insensitive given the original is about a friend dying from drug overdose and video games aren't deadly.
Reducing the odds of getting covid does reduce transmission. That is what the vaccine does.

All you have to do to stop the spread of a virus is lower R below 1. The vaccine would do that if we vaccinated everyone.
My point is thus. You can't legitimately argue that you can reasonably understand modern security without understanding modern exploitation techniques. Furthermore you also can't say that a certification that doesn't test for any of this knowledge would then be useful for filtering candidates that have said knowledge.

That is not an argument from ignorance, that is simple fact.

If you are hiring for "security" at an enterprise company where the role generally consists of vendor management then sure, CISSP is probably exactly what you need/want.

If the certification was worth something it would feature more prominently in requirements for companies with excelent security orgs. Notice it's completely absent from https://www.tesla.com/careers/search/job/security-engineer-f... and https://boards.greenhouse.io/cloudflare/jobs/1727694?gh_jid=... and https://jobs.apple.com/en-au/details/200293563/product-secur...

Instead note the prominence of proven vulns, low level language experience, etc.

Lesson is simple. If you want to be good (and paid a shit ton) disregard certs, acquire CVEs.
On the other hand, if a specific type of nail is used as shrapnel in a homemade bomb, investigators can go around to all hardware stores in the area and get security camera footage of customers who recently bought large quantities of that type of nail.

This isn't a hypothetical situation - according to the LA Times, it's how they ended up cracking the Austin bombing case that involved the Google warrant [1]:

> Trying to find the buyer of the nails, officials “went to every hardware store” in the area to find customers who had made large purchases, and they struck gold with a Home Depot store in the Austin suburb of Round Rock, McCaul said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times.

> “The fatal mistake that led law enforcement to him — because he was pretty good at evading surveillance cameras — was when he walked into Home Depot,” McCaul said. Investigators obtained surveillance video of Conditt walking into the store in a wig and walking back out to a vehicle with a license plate connected to his name.

So I think there's a little more nuance here. Certainly matching a list of generic terms seems too broad. But a warrant for specific keywords that was limited to a specific city and time frame might be analogous to going to all the hardware stores in the city and pulling security footage?

Ok, so they were counterfeiting and distributing coupons.

> She trained herself in the different techniques she needed to manipulate barcodes to make these coupons work," said Special Agent Shannon Brill in the FBI release. Talens, who is considered the mastermind of the scheme, would create fake coupons with discounts "near or even over" an item's retail value.

> Talens was paid more than $400,000 in digital currencies such as bitcoin and sometimes "exchanged coupons for stolen rolls of the special paper stores use to print out coupons," the agency said.

She was reallllly getting sucked into it. I had a little (micro) taste of that once.

I decided to try extreme couponing some years back, coinciding with extreme weight loss. I ended up losing my last 50 lbs while eating my way through boxes of various name brand chocolate bars that cost me almost nothing. (Well, and a salad here or there. And I exchanged my macros for getting it all over with faster via eat-whatever-you-like CICO)

It was definitely an embarrassment of random riches though. One time I was able to buy about 20 high-end Zebra mechanical pencils for $.10 each. The cashier was stunned and it got a bit embarrassing as she exclaimed loudly and other people looked on.

I'm not surprised people get sucked into this stuff, because you start to realize that you are making away like a bandit. Nothing ever just costs what it costs.

So if you think that's an awesome way to feel, maybe it gets more intense from there, and you realize Photoshop is a thing? Personally I didn't like the excited reactions and making a scene at a store, though my kids and their teachers got some pretty great school supplies out of it.
It's really ironic when you think about it. One of the things people hate on FB for is enabling echo chambers in online discourse. That FB has this corrosive effect because it amplifies toxic content and radicalizes users who get pushed further and further from the mainstream.

But us FB haters don't always realize that we're also in a bubble or echo chamber when discussing it. We see nothing but negative opinions on the company and don't realize that the larger world doesn't share these thoughts.

There are so many other topics I see this applying to. Amazon work conditions; whether Apple should scan for CSAM client-side; the whole Chappelle thing.

I'm a case in point. After a decade of ignoring Instagram, I'm now a solid DAU[1]. I probably see a dozen ad impressions each day; I know I've clicked through a handful in the last month. I do what I can to compartmentalize it from the rest of my online identity, but when looking at their growth metrics, I'm one of them in the 3rd quarter.

> I feel like, at the very least, they should get free Oculus headsets for life.

Is there something different about this kickstarter than most others? Did they offer ownership? Because it sounds like you think you bought something they don't think they sold.

Just because you compliment my son on his lemonade stand and tell him you believe in him and buy a lemonade doesn't entitle you to a share of his eventual billion dollar lemonade empire.
I’m happy that the Mayor of LB was responsive. To be objective, it cost him basically no political capital to agree to change the policy temporarily. It is the lowest of the low hanging fruit and perhaps the only easy step for that actor to take.

I was careful to distinguish “the majority” in my assessment. I view the filled warehouses downstream of the ports and the occupied trailer chassis they are occupying as the majority of the problem. These warehouses cause back pressure to the ports. The only reason raising the LB container stack depth from 2 to 4 only matters because those lots are buffers between the ports and distributors/retailers, but those buffers are full.

There are a handful of other problems, both downstream of distributors and upstream of the LA/LB ports which cause this change to be effectively a small lever.
Agree, it's really good for a webcam given enough light.
Without enough light, it turns extremely mediocre - but that's what I've controlled for - and applies to ALL cameras. (A pro camera would make bad lighting less bad, but would always benefit from improved lighting.)

I'm kind of comparing that part of the setup to what pro youtubers use. I don't have the budget for a proper mirrorless though, and it'd be largely wasted on e.g. Google Meet's compression algos - bearing in mind I don't stream public or make youtube videos.

The narrow front profile of the Streamcam was a nice bonus when I just put it on my new Flex arm. I'm super impressed by how well this works, getting the camera eye level in front of my 32"s. Have gone 15 months without one, kicking myself now that I didn't do it earlier - just didn't think of it.

I will have the Elgatos on low/warm setting in between meetings. They're really nice.
Essentially the government has built a surveillance state by outsourcing it to private enterprise.

I think it would be interesting to know how people really feel about this. I would love to see a survey that actually truly explained the trade-offs and see how people felt about it, eg avoiding the “ should government be able to subpoena records from private business” but actually ask questions like “is it OK with you that with a subpoena that the government can get a list every website that you have visited?” And then present the trade offs and abuse cases. I really think that we’ve allowed the surveillance state to form without actually having a meaningful public debate about it.
In-kind transactions are never compared to fiat except when bitcoin is involved, that’s weird and only serves to show a limitation of exposure.

I believe they can also sell the data, though there may be some regulations on anonymized, or sold as a group to develop profiles and understanding for advertising purposes.

Perhaps that's what you mean by "mass surveillance", but I took that to mean specifically government surveillance.
I was one of those backers.

We got the headset that we paid for, and we also got the next dev headset after that for free. I definitely feel like I got my money's worth from it.

I then switched for a Vive for my first retail headset, but I've since switched to Quest 2. Even though it shouldn't be better, the wireless functionality and ability to play games without a computer make it better than the original Vive. I'll likely be upgrading to whatever is next in the Oculus lineup.

I backed VR because I've always loved the idea of VR and AR, and desperately wanted it to take off. Palmer and Carmack did a great job of making that happen, and even though I don't like Palmer's politics, I'm very thankful that he got this ball rolling. If I had only gotten that first headset, I'd still feel like I totally got my money's worth. But the continued and increased presence of VR is the real payout for me.

My wife also has a Quest 2 now and we often play multiplayer games together, like Walkabout Minigolf. It's just amazing.
Enterprise No-Code Process Orchestration
Somebody bears ultimate responsibility for filtering fact from fiction.

It could be the individual consuming the news (which is hard work, and requires consciously counteracting confirmation bias as well as overt attempts at information manipulation).

Or it can be some centralized authority (social media companies, the government, etc.) and you have to ensure that the interests of that authority are aligned with the public interest.

The last several years have illustrated the downsides of the former approach but I'm not at all convinced that the latter is less brittle.
I'm pretty sure they are just pointing out that IBM has been selling in Europe for longer than 50 years, but the parent comment to theirs did say 50+.
So I take it then that willfully ignoring a law and withholding an exculpatory evidence is not a crime then. Nice. Basically license to screw one's life without any consequences.
You basically just described China.
Companies aren't going to sponsor an entry-level candidate and you don't have the credentials to immigrate on ability alone. You probably need to get a degree, either here or Europe, or get years of work experience in Europe.

What was your motivation for the tourist visa?
So... how does one counterfeit a coupon? Like, the affected stores' systems just accept coupon codes in a format like: "Huggies 99% off?" for any arbitrary product?

I always assumed a coupon bar code just referenced some a central repository of discount options... but maybe that's wrong?

I didn't say anyone was dumb, but people have been fighting against vaccines and pushing snake oil for the entire history of vaccines.
I think that depends on how you define "general public". My mum doesn't, but my (far more digitally savvy) teenage cousin does.

Back in 2009, though, this was a very different story. Even tech-savvy people didn't care.
The police can ask for anything. It's not the same thing as ordering something.

You are not indeed. This is a showstopper, even before having a look at your resume to try and figure a fit.
It’s not that much of a loss for them. If you are growing for someone like morning star, they have tightened the supply chain so well that every step is precisely executed. The reason they are open topped is because they go straight to processing and get washed and graded and processed even before they are weighed. It’s beautiful how the system has been designed. Closing the tops is probably saving less than a few pennies per pound but it’s not worth disrupting or delaying the operations systems. Processing company contract out every step of the growing process from nursery to transplanting services to harvesting. Chris Rufer is a model most of us should strive to be..he has perfected tomato processing to an art form.

No, I don't think that's the problem[1]. It's the unrealized gains, whether or not they take out loans. And I suspect (with no data) that by far, most unrealized gains have no loans against them.

[1] There are two versions of what "the problem" is. The first is that people can accumulate assets, completely untaxed, in the form of unrealized capital gains. The other problem is "we [Congress] don't have enough money". For either problem, VAT doesn't really address it.
Paying a fair price to sustain something you want to see continue to exist isn't charity.

Paying the lowest price you possibly can nearly always means someone along the way was exploited and not given a fair share of the value they created.
It's still an open question of whether we're actually seeing the result of too much free speech, or whether we're seeing the result of overly centralized powers popularizing extreme viewpoints to drive engagement. Faceboot et al have essentially installed themselves as middlemen into everyone's interpersonal relationships, and have thus hijacked our sense of social proof.
It doesn't help that outside of computer use, file means a collection of documents (e.g., a case file).

Facebook admits site appears hardwired for misinformation, memo reveals
If people are wondering why this dry legal summary from two weeks ago is at the top of HN, it's probably because John Carmack just tweeted about how there's been a media blackout since their win: https://twitter.com/ID_AA_Carmack/status/1452758104735723526

According to Palmer Luckey there were tech reporters in the courtroom as the verdict was read, but they chose not to publish articles about it, presumably because something bad happening to Luckey/Oculus/Facebook would have been news, but something good doesn't fit the narrative. https://twitter.com/PalmerLuckey/status/1452753156895506433
Facebook can easily afford 100,000 moderators. But that's not even the problem. Facebook knew they were causing the genocide in Myanmar. They knew they were contributing to sex slavery in Ethiopia. They decided not to solve those problems because they were concerned about the effect it would have on engagement. If they don't want to do what it takes to make their platform safe they should expect legal intervention.

Same. I never use spaces or apps in fullscreen (except when watching videos).

I find it way easier to do CMD + TAB to switch between apps, than having to switch between spaces until I get to where I want to be.
BT is broken everywhere. I daily-drive MacOS, Windows 10, and PopOS, all on pretty solid hardware. All 3 have countless issues with BT stuff, whether it's UI and issues with connecting/remembering, or dropouts, or it just failing to work on random days, or audio glitches, or not finding some generic peripherals that the other OSes do find, etc etc.

I use BT a lot, half a dozen devices I use every single day, and I have issues with every single peripheral on at least 1 (usually 2) of the 3 OSes I use.

BT itself seems like such a simple thing to get right too... not sure what I'm missing about it that makes it so technically hard to just work as expected.
There have been people pushing snake oil instead of vaccines for the entire history of vaccines.

You can draw a straight line through the history of vaccination and find people pushing fake cures and drugs that are basically unsupported by solid evidence instead of vaccines.

Anthem: Honeywell’s Cloud-Native Cockpit System
> That motherboard has two NVMe slots.

I fail to find that anywhere in the specs. It says 8 SATA3 slots and 2 PCIe 4 slots. It is not clear if you can boot/configure them from the BIOS.

> That cheap-ass cooler isn't that bad. It's pretty middle of the road. Personally I'd have the Hyper 212 Evo for $39 because it's not that much more expensive

The cooler is critical if you are doing CPU intensive work. A hot CPU will get throttled; so you'd better get a very good one if you are already paying a lot for your CPU.

> The main difference between the plain keyboard and your average "gamer" keyboard is what, RGB LEDs? You can pay the money for that if you like, but there are no RGB LEDs on the Mac.

No. The grip and precision are night and day. Even more so for mouses that I can't move back to normal ones (I had the G900 and now have the razer viper ultimate; this thing made the carpal tunnel syndrome a thing of the past and I use the mouse for 10+ hours per day).
I saw it first hand being in a different F500 company.

Basically all the old tools were written in excel/word/ppt and it was cheaper to just subscribe to O365 than to switch. Monetizing yearly subscriptions is way more profitable than waiting every 5-10 years for people to buy the next version.
What's weird here is this:

>All told, Facebook has 174 million daily active users in the U.S., according to the internal data. By comparison, Google-owned YouTube has 122 million

If you want to see basically any video online, from funny cats to Facebook depositions, you're using YT. It seems to me that if you're an "internet user", at least in this countries I've know anything about, you're a "YT user".
Waiting Room with Cloudflare Workers and Redis
I mean this is the other advantage of the PC. If you want to pay more and get the Thunderbolt ports, you can. If you don't need them for anything, you don't have to pay for them.

The specs we're looking at here are pretty general. Most workloads are either going to be CPU bound or GPU bound, not both. Do you need the 5950X? Then you're CPU bound and can save $500 with another GPU. Do you need the RTX 3060? Then you're GPU bound and can save $500 with another CPU.

If you need the fast GPU in the Mac, it comes as one piece in a machine that starts at $3500.

If they switch GVT-g for SR-IOV that shouldn't affect the use of VFIO-Mdev on consumer devices (the primary API we use).
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/drive...

It may be that they're changing internal APIs used for device mediation which wouldn't surprise me given both AMD and Nvidia use SR-IOV but only Intel uses GVT-g.
I bought a 2019 iMac with a Fusion drive.

In the next major update (High Sierra), Apple switched to APFS, which has issues with Fusion drives.

It often shows as having no empty space, even with 40% empty.

Much, much worse, it stops writing to disk without giving any indication (the non written items show in finder, etc.) - for some ten hours or more - and then suddenly crashes and you find that the entire days worth of work is completely gone. Not on disk, not on external backup, not in Time Machine.

This happens EVERY DAY, at least once a day, when using heavy programs such as Photoshop.

There are many threads about the issue, and the only solution is to get a new non-Fusion drive and copy over everything. Much easier said than done.

I cannot even begin to describe how much aggravation Apple has caused, and how little faith I have in them testing their upgrades.

And of course, the whole play with searching my hard drive for something their algorithm thinks goes against my local government [which plays for keeps, thank you] - doesn't help.
