To the "doing what question"... almost unanimously they all said that they wished they "said this or that".. Not so much did this or that... People tend to look back on their lives and almost always wish they had told someone: They loved them; They were sorry for something; They wished they spent more time getting to know someone personally (their Dad, their spouse, their friend) It's not so much about the doing but about the talking. Sharing what's inside your head and getting to know what's in other folks head is the secret. If games get you to do that, that's great, but no one is ever going to remember the play. Just don't focus on the superficial things. Such things don't last. I lost a friend recently who was amazingly accomplished and you know what people spoke about at the funeral; How great a dad he was. That's life, let's not loose that in a virtual world.

And cold impacts many more people than heat. Has climate change altered this statistic? I have no idea but to date, have seen no evidence that cold-related deaths have diminished in recent years.

'Cold weather kills 20 times as many people as hot weather, according to an international study analysing over 74 million deaths in 384 locations across 13 countries including Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, UK, and USA. The findings, published in The Lancet, also reveal that deaths due to moderately hot or cold weather substantially exceed those resulting from extreme heat waves or cold spells.'

That workaround gets you the text but it's missing a lot of the recent typographic improvements. It's fine for extracting text for TTS, but isn't ideal if what you are trying to do is maintain a DRM free archive of books you've purchased.

I think that’s actually it’s own fallacy: presuming that one can predict the dependencies and survivorship of various elements of society in a scenario where one or two larger ones go through a disruptive transition. This is a contradiction in many cases, because if you could know how such a disruption was actually going to play out, it would be unlikely to actually happen. If our kids are growing up in a world that is fundamentally different than ours in terms of sovereignty, it is very hard to know what the side effects of that transition will be.

You’re presuming a scenario where the structure of government changes is the same as a civilizational collapse. That’s not a given.

I'm quite sure there were people in Zillow's data science team who understood this, and maybe even tried to say, hey, this model we developed can't really be used for this new purpose you want to use it. But it's hard being that naysayer.

I was at an interview with some people who were doing some things with machine learning on time series data... a topic I know little about, but enough to have heard of Eamonn Keogh and his many, many criticisms of how that's being done by ML practitioners with no time series background. What they were doing was pretty much everything on Prof. Keogh's "what not to do" list. But how do you tell them that? And how would it be if I'd already worked there for a while when you found out your company's business model has some pretty big flaws from a data science perspective?

As long as they pay well, there's certainly a temptation to say, I only make the models I'm told to...

Its not far off from looking at a circuit board and recognizing layout patterns and chip shapes to get a feel for whats going on. e.g. Larger chips are usually of interest. A larger chip with one or more little rectangular chips next to or surrounding it is likely the CPU and RAM/Flash/ROM. Smaller chips are interface or power regulators depending on their proximity to ports and other components. Groups of inductors, capacitors and transistors are likely power supplies. It all comes with experience.

Just to clarify, Keynesianism isn’t particularly about who you tax but when tax and spending should occur.

The idea is to be countercyclical. Cut spending and increase taxes during a boom, cut taxes and increase spending during a bust. Keeps inflation during boom and deflation during a bust from being too high. The idea is to keep the boom from burning itself out (prevent leading to a crash) and to shorten the depth and duration of a bust (and eliminate them if possible).

Keynes did point out that poor people are more likely to spend money they receive than the rich, so if you’re trying to get out of a demand-caused bust, dollar per dollar, redistributing to the poor is more effective. During a bust, the rich especially have a liquidity preference so they’ll hoard cash instead of spending it.
yeah, and some very competent people have no time or interest in timed coding tests and know that great software is not built that way.

if you have been through a CS program you have worked on probably at least 10 projects. and then there are your personal projects. if you have any experience you can talk about at least some of these apart from the stuff under NDA.

so, this approach is much better than timed coding interviews and is a much more fair system as it rewards and takes into account experience.

So what? Selling to such organizations tells more about the salesmen skills than actual merits of a product. For example, a lot of bigger and even more important organizations use Slack or Microsoft Teams, because a product they are sold works and does what they need.

> True, though there is no clear consensus on what the former means, it is clear it is narrower than the latter.

No the consensus is pretty clear and only gets muddied up when there are political reasons for trying to invalidate someone's presidential candidacy. To become a citizen involves going through a "naturalization" process. A natural-born citizen is anyone whose citizenship came by birth rather than through naturalization. There may have been some ambiguity when the Republic was young, borders were porous, and documentation to track births and deaths and such was scarce or easily forged. But today we've got that all pretty much locked down.

Erm, I must say I disagree with the decision if it's true. Do you have a link supporting it? I don't recall seeing anything like that when the feature was released.

Also I wasn't referring to "external tools" but a way to pipeline the embed.FS tree through a filepath.WalkFn function that the developer adds.

Making paternalistic decisions for your users from the presumption that they're idiots is never a good idea in my opinion.

- The heart rate sensing is done on a smart watch, not a phone, and needs data from the actual heart rate sensor every couple of days [1].

- The breathing rate is determined from a phone put on the breast or the abdomen [2]. Not really a threat vector in that form.

- The audio stuff is incredibly impressive [3], but it doesn't look like they can reconstruct text with meaningful reliability, it's more about identifying the person or at least the gender of the person on the other end of the line.

The location and activity detection scenarios seem the most credible to me, but the for targeted attacks the audio reconstruction might also work. The other two don't really seem credible to me yet, but good to be aware of them.

The second largest political party in the first Knesset was Mapam, which had ideological ties to the Soviet Union (the largest party was the center left Worker's Party or Mapai). The USSR was the first country to recognize Israel, followed by future Warsaw Pact members Czechosolvakia and Poland. Then Hungary and Romania recognized Israel. The next year, the US decided to recognize Israel. So Israel initially had better diplomatic relations with the future Warsaw Pact than the USA.

With the 1967 war, these Warsaw Pact countries all broke diplomatic relations with Israel (except Romania, which was in the process of breaking away from the USSR). Relations between the US and Israel improved dramatically in 1967. In 1973 Israel had an ill-fated war with Egypt, whose Sinai peninsula was occupied by Israel since 1967, and in 1977, Likud took over the Knesset for the first time.

So 1967 was an important year in the relationship shift.

1. it's not an "advocacy organization" but a magazine. And this a) doesn't change the fact that the dossier provides no evidence and b) other media has reported on the dossier, including The Intercept [1].

2. I only mentioned that torture has been alleged. Shin Bet has a long-standing pattern of using torture and other inhuman or degrading treatment to obtain confessions.

3. These two disgraced accountants only provided assertions on general hypotheses, no concrete evidence. Such testimony isn't worth much. To quote +972 [see above]:

> An examination of the dossier’s “evidence,” however, along with an examination of the summaries of Abdat’s and Hamuda’s repeated interrogations, reveals that the accountants — who did not work for any of the six targeted organizations — based most of their accusations on general hypotheses, what they alleged was “common knowledge,” or information they claimed was widely “known.”

> More importantly, even Abdat’s and Hamuda’s unsubstantiated testimonies indicate, at most, that some of these organizations were involved in civic and public activities such as student events, helping the sick, and poetry classes that form part of the PFLP’s work as a movement in Palestinian society. A lawyer representing one of the accountants, Abdat, further alleges that his client may have been pressured to provide testimony following interrogation methods that could amount to torture or ill-treatment.

Their reliability must also be questioned:

> Moreover, the summaries of Abdat and Hamuda’s interrogations reveal how poorly acquainted they were with the six organizations listed in Gantz’s declaration. For example, during his interrogation on March 31, Hamuda mentioned the six groups but erroneously noted that parliamentarian Khalida Jarrar is the director of Addameer, an organization that defends the rights of Palestinian political prisoners, despite the fact that she has not headed the organization since 2006 (Addameer’s current director is attorney Sahar Francis).

4. I'm not sure we should accuse AI and HRW as biased, simply for standing up for human rights in Israel, which, considering where the majority of violation lie and who the occupying power is, will necessarily focus on one player. After all, it is not the PA but the Israeli army that demolishes homes or holds people in indefinite "administrative" detention.

---

In short, it is up for the Israeli government to prove publicly - beyond a reasonable doubt - that these severe allegations of terrorism funding are true and that the designation as terrorist associations is justified. It is not up to those organizations and their defenders to prove a negative. Innocent until proven guilty is after all the foundation of state respecting the rule of law.

A designation based on secret "evidence", combined with the fact that even confidential dossiers don't offer a shred of evidence, doesn't make this look like a justified designation
