Astronautical Engineer graduating in May. CS minor with a ton of software experience. Looking for entry-level software positions.
WebGPU is coming, and VR hardware is only getting better. It seems obvious that WebXR is the path to a distributed, 3D web that is interoperable by default and not owned by any one company. The key here is open standards and protocols.

Here's a thread I made with more thoughts on the metaverse emerging from the web:

Sure on the coast but the Great Lakes-adjacent region should fare pretty well, or at least better than everywhere else.
very cool.

how did you settle on the positioning as being for marketplaces?

sounds like this would be useful for any company that has a feed, search or recommendations like any retailer or publisher.
> Where is all this extra demand coming from?

Blockchains?

(More seriously, I guess an awful lot of it is used to keep producing the cheap goods that Western consumers demand. We need to adjust our lifestyles to "consume" much less, in every way.)
Seems to work well enough for ransomware...

I've not seen engineers coming from advertisement space get chastised, why is Facebook a special case of this?
If the 'trust' of an entity used for critical infrastructure is not definitive, then we 'don't trust', i.e. 'distrust by default' in those scenarios.

We literally do not know who owns Huawei, legally. We know that the CCP wants to monitor all communications, everywhere, do the extent they can. We know that de facto, the CCP has the final say, and can bend Huawei at will to do as they please and interdict without consequence (see: Jack Ma).

While it's obviously a much more complicated question, there are other issues for sure, but in the end, it's as easy as that.

The same should be held for any bit of critical software, and legislation should be introduced to protect citizens from CCP oversight in consumer apps like TikTok.

The 'smart play' would be to play into the financial incentive of the companies - most of them are 'profit first' and adhere to CCP policy mostly 'because they have to' but with maybe some degree of national loyalty in some parties. But just like Hollywood can be very easily manipulated with the threat of China-blackout into making films the way the CCP wants ... Zoom and TikTok will act reasonably with the right regulation and oversight i.e. 'All US data has to be kept in the US, in certain terms, with some regulatory process etc'.. If they are forced to keep a firewall between non-China and China users by host nations, it makes it easier for them to rebuff CCP demands for interjection i.e. "Sorry Xi, but the data is kept on servers in the US on a different business unit, if we pass data across borders they will shut us down"
idk. Maybe buy a random thing from them for an absurd amount?

Or just make it rain on so many people that it's effectively impossible to get it all back. The power of decentralization.
Wow, I was not aware of this. I used to read Dvorak a lot when I was younger. It also appears that he did not quit but was, in fact, fired - according to [1]:

> As many of you know, I was unceremoniously fired from PC Magazine on Sept. 20th, 2018 after over 30 years of service. I just figured it was the new people coming in and I was an unneeded throwback to the old regime.

Edit:

> but I personally haven't seen an actual use case for 5G to date

Incidentally, the most "compelling" use cases I've seen for 5g are always-connected smart devices that don't rely on WiFi. E.g. a smart TV where you can't pihole its advertising or view-tracking "features".
See the Feedback section on the initiative (https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/better-regulation/have-your-sa...) for various comments from various organizations/companies, pushing for various things.

As far as I can tell, no EU organ has actually published any actual proposal or recommendation to introduce such mandatory screening as described in the OP.

My guess is that the actual proposal, when it comes, will not include industrywide mandatory screening or breaking end-to-end encryption.
> I don't think I understand how delivered-by could possibly be a better standard than postmarked-by.

The purpose of delivered-by is obviously to allow for the election results to be known on election day (or as soon thereafter as possible).

A sensible alternative would be to use postmarked-by, but make the postmarked-by date sufficiently in advance of "election day" to allow for the ballots to have been delivered by then. In practice this is the same result while addressing your concern for intentional postal system delays, since now intentional delays wouldn't change the result so there would be no incentive to do it. (And a large number of ballets mailed well in advance of election day but delivered after would then be highly suspicious, as it ought to be.)

> The postmarked-by standard didn't meaningfully delay the Pennsylvania count (the drastic shift from in-person to mail-in ballots sure did, but the ballots that decided the election on D+4 weren't late-to-arrive so much as they were late-to-count).

A delay that was overwhelmed by a different delay in a specific election doesn't mean it isn't a delay.
> None of these anti-bot providers give a shit about invading your privacy, tracking your every movements, or whatever other power fantasy that can be imagined.

There is vast amount of profit available in doing just that (see e.g. GOOG and FB market cap). Even companies that truly have no intention of exploiting data collected as a side-effect of whatever product line they do, nearly always eventually end up going for that profit line. Because passing up on more income merely due to moral considerations is too much of a temptation for a company to be able to resist in the long term.
You seem to be under the mistaken impression that society was created only a few centuries ago, and that widespread deployment of clocks were a prerequisite for escape from base "eat your neighbors and older relatives to survive the winter" savagery.

Most tasks with real person in time coordination also have fixed locations, and optimal environmental work times. Roofers work early in the morning so they don't need to literally risk their necks to darkness while also avoiding scorching heat.

Lighting was also expensive and very inadequate compared to sunlight. This lead to convergence. Notice all of the old proverbs and parables speak in terms of light and not time on clocks?

In addition to the manual craftmanship, before standardized parts creation was done to fit by one person - something where you would prefer to do all of the relevant tasks with one person when possible. And manufactured goods were expensive precisely because most spent time on raw material related tasks.

Actual coordinated work has music associated with the proper rhythm. Sea shanties, and rowing drums for instance.
I've been learning in my law course about how laws are built from precedent and often need to be based on real things that have happened, rather than in anticipation of something bad maybe happening in the future.

So when it comes to facebook and other big tech companies, I feel like they should be regulated similar to how toy companies can't advertise violence to children, and tobacco companies can't advertise to children at all. Those laws are incredibly strict and written with the understanding that kids are vulnerable and naive, and can't really think for themselves. But that vulnerability still has to be demonstrated, and tangible harm has to be shown before a robust law can be written (meaning, one that won't be struck down as unconstitutional or unreasonable or whatever), and such laws are still in the process of being written for the tech companies.

So you could argue that they should back off of marketing to kids as a moral thing, but equally you could argue that they need to stake out their territory before laws are written that block off entire lines of business. The tech companies are behaving rationally, but the results can be awful. Society needs to fight back and protect ourselves with strong laws.

Hello, I’m looking for internships or research opportunities for the summer of 2023 to solve complex problems. I am open to remote or hybrid internships.

I have experience in systems programming, compiler and operating system projects, and research in android malware and satellite communication jamming. I'm also interested in data science, networking, and security.
Thanks for the link. The congress vote went 66-34. The congressional delegation, 79-21. There is a noticeable gap there, any plan to fix it?
I'm not sure what you mean by "buy into them," but people buy them because they taste good.
Or at least switch to organic animal products.

It's funny how factory farming is suddenly an issue when a human might end up in hospital. I hope those who didn't care before get to see battery cages or fledgling shredder in person at some point.
If it's in the core, to a certain level of confidence, but it's arguably worth ripping it out because of how hard it is to have enough confidence.

likewise anything that can address anything else on a network.

If it's, say, a radio antenna? yeah, you can.

The core was the cheapest and easiest thing to replace. It's the rest - the stuff it would be implausibly difficult to hack while we are watching which is eyewateringly expensive to rip out.
There's a big difference between cooking dark meat and white meat. Thighs and drumsticks can easily go higher and still be good, or even better. But breasts lack the fat and connective tissue that breaks down in longer cooks, so they're a lot less forgiving.
> republicans represent a minority of Americans. They'd never have power again if we had fair democratic elections. Democrats represent the majority of Americans. They benefit greatly from fair democratic elections. It's just that simple.

This is the truth, and is why Republicans are doing what they are doing. It's not because Republicans are bad and Democrats are good. It's because Republicans are going to lose otherwise.
Bash is the default interactive shell, but the Almquist shell is the default for /bin/sh, and must be used for all system startup activity.

Having worked for WhatsApp, mostly my friends and family said, "What's That?" ... and I sighed. Of course, when I worked for Yahoo Travel, mostly they said "That's still around?", so no love wherever I work. :)
That demo repo https://github.com/MangoDB-io/example is forked from https://github.com/mariadb-corporation/dev-example-nosql-lis... which "allows a MariaDB server or cluster to be used as the backend of an application using a MongoDB client library".

So in other words the MangoDB project tries to port a MariaDB NoSQL example app to PostgreSQL.

EDIT: seems I mis-interpreted the Github repo. The example is indeed a fork of the MariaDB project but the underlying MangoDB is not.
I suspect the overwhelming majority of software shops aren't doing the diligence you describe as "traditional". For those folks, containers represent a strict improvement in security. I would be curious to learn more about which "privilege minimization" features are incompatible with containers, however.
No reason not to try it
This is a fantasy. The US government has not meaningfully regulated big tech and there's no reason to believe they will start now (unless you consider the public bloviation of politicians "reason to believe" - I do not).
Land, maybe. Hoarding toilet paper and beanie babies probably won’t get you great returns.
This is kind of a tagent, but I think inability to quit is much more the defining characteristic of slavery than not being paid. Although obviously slaves aren't usually compensated reasonably if at all. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_labour#Payment_for_unfr...
That's called "scope insensitivity" :) It's a 1-2 day issue, multiplied by whole populations. It's pretty difficult for human brains to parse this, which is probably the cause of a lot of civilization inadequacies.

«Consumption»

> Taken together, our data as well as the findings recently reported by others [46,47,48] indicate that consumption of green tea or use of its active ingredient EGCG is beneficial for preventing or reducing SARS-CoV-2 transmission and infection. However, clinical significance and application of ours and the reported in vitro findings need to be validated in future investigations, particularly in clinical studies of the anti-SARS-CoV-2 effects of EGCG as a viral entry inhibitor. Nonetheless, given its low toxicity, anti-inflammation, antioxidant, and anti-SARS-CoV-2 variant properties, use of GTB or EGCG is likely to minimize the SARS-CoV-2 spread, ameliorate symptoms and disease severity.

I wonder how frequently this "stain" impacts people in practice. I've got some defense contractors on my resume. I suppose some people might flinch on that, but I've never felt like I had a problem getting work or growing my career.

I suspect it might be like that. A small percentage of people would nix you, but you would never know. Compared to something like the porn industry, which I've heard is death to a resume.

2. He is using parts made by the same company that made exactly the same chips. Is that Counterfeit?

3. He is using parts he scrapped from other Apple Computer when those parts are not available.

The Migrant Workers Who Follow Climate Disasters
>150 is flat out not worth the risk from a public health standpoint.

It's not worth the risk for public health agencies to recommend 150°, that I can agree on. Too much room for inexperienced cooks to make an error.

But chicken held at 150° for a few minutes (which is hard to avoid in most scenarios) is no less safe than the hypothetical "165° for an instant" scenario.
(provided that parts of the meat closer to the cooking surface are > 155º when taken off)
I'd say: no, they shouldn't be allowed to do that.

In the same way kids aren't allowed to drink alcohol, smoke cigarettes or gamble. That shit's addictive, and we as a society don't expect children to be able to properly consider the long term consequences when making the decision to use it. (Of course one could make the same argument about adults, but I digress.)

> Saying hi to the same cashier is nice and all, but there is a lot of depth of truer community that has been left by a gap of the church leaving the mainstream.

Indeed, but in fact, the increase in screen time (previously TV, now also internet/smartphones), has been a major contributor to the decline of community and civic society. Making more things doable online is likely to only make things worse, not better in this aspect.
My assumption was that if the US (or anyone else) can build the technology, it will be imported and/or copied by everyone else.
True, but how do you scale it if you only act in a vacuum?
The rate of infections are very diverse in Europe. In Scandinavia it is extremely low, they test the chickens several times during their lifetime and kills the whole flock if any of them is contaminated. Until they joined the EU all eggs were "washed" which removed other unwanted pathogens. The EU forced them to accept unwashed eggs and allowed them for the time being to continue selling washed eggs. Most other countries does not use such draconian methods to their farming and the washing of eggs removes a thin membrane which gives some protection from salmonella travelling between the eggs.
I think it's important to avoid overly simplistic, binary interpretations about politics or action from dominating the conversation. I think it's a form of bike-shedding, it's very easy, and accessible to vaguely blame "the media" or "politicians" for the cause of problems, which is not only inaccurate in who it blames (both The Guardian and Rebel News/OAN are media, both are not equally to blame), and also doesn't engage in actually finding data and evidence to support the argument.

At any rate, with regards to climate change, it's important to note that actual progress has been made in mitigating climate change, it's not enough to hit the 1.5C target, but we'd be in an even worse place without it. In 2014 the world was on track to hit 4C by 2100, now its at 3C, (primarily due to rapid growth in clean energy). More reduction is possible in the intervening years, and the reduction is important in cutting out the more catastrophic effects of climate change.
