The reason could be the same as given in the other RPi post today (about the Pi Zero 2W):

> The black rectangle is a "bare-die soldered bumped package"... what that means is the silicon die has no black epoxy covering. A metal layer is deposited on the die and then solder bumps attached which allow the part to be soldered to a PCB. The reason for this, is as expected, cost. No package (epoxy, substrate)... no cost. One sees this more-and more with electronic assemblies.

> The only downside is that external light can actually affect the chip operation (light hitting the die releases electrons at PN junctions creating errors in circuit operation ) .. .however here the Faraday metal shield helps prevent this.

You shouldn't have any particular duty to follow up with someone who's withholding a bounty report. If the report is good, you'll know it; you may get a report without details, but if they're for real, they'll include credentials (usually: a link to previous findings). If they're complete anonymous randos and don't provide details, they've got nothing.

Is there an application on iOS that can listen for the accelerometer/gyro data on the background?
China Bans Flightradar24
Even if accelerometer data is free, IPC’ing the data to the app consumes a small amount of power. It adds up over time. If it’s not needed, the app shouldn’t subscribe to it.
Expecting the GNU and BSD apps to be identical is certainly understandable, but explaining that they are different is hardly the same as “you’re holding it wrong.” It’s information. If, instead of learning from it, you want to be mad at that information, let alone the messenger, I pity you.

> and yet we have libel laws, anti hate speech provisions, corporate secrecy laws and so on and so forth all of which prohibit me from saying things just because I feel like it.

Not sure what you meant by this paragraph.

> But I don't think that's even the discussion any more. The discussion is whether you should be obligated to provide these reprehensible views with a platform, and to what degree it should be possible for us to tune them out altogether, as a matter of personal preference.

I think both discussions are extremely important at this point in time. Personally, I don't think companies should be obligated to provide a platform for people with all kinds of ideas, but I think that they should nonetheless do so (because I think freedom of speech is a good thing). I am in favour of freedom of speech on social media, but not in favour of this being mandated by law (because it isn't contradictory to freedom of speech to have some spaces in which freedom of speech is not allowed).

>Reddit made a choice, perhaps commercially driven to apply a certain modicum of taste and decency to their platform, to complaints from "free speech advocates". Just what these people stand for, and to what degree it should be defended, is different from what voltaire was talking about.

I'm not sure what Voltaire was talking about, because I have not read Voltaire. But if one believes that freedom of speech is valuable in and of itself, or that it is valuable because it leads to the discovery of great truths, then one ought to be in favour of freedom of speech on Reddit.

Do the following experiment:

1) Put in the same folder where you had that marketing blurb, a new blurb. Make sure it is unique but still looks like english. Example: now your startup allows you to fly to the moon in rockets powered by angry tweets.

2) Try to force a reload of copilot. Maybe reinstall it?

3) Recreate the conditions that suggested the first blurb, but trying to suggest the second blurb.

4) Share the results, I am curious.

If you get that suggestion, you have proof and reproductible steps for others to get proof. If you don't get that suggestion, we can't be sure, but the odds of it being just a coincidence increase.

Good luck!
So I wonder how much of this is related to an article I read a while back about certain cyber sec (legit or not) university programs that encourage (read: require) their students to essentially pull this stuff in order to get their names out there (name of the individual and/or the school). The effort is pretty much a naked attempt to drum up a pile of "finds" and show your socials that you are a 'security professional' (padding the resume, so to speak). The thing about this effort is that those schools are actively driving their students to do this in order to graduate, if the article was correct..... Not certain if this is the other side of the situation, but compelling.

I found it's actually pretty possible with a willing partner. You dice up an argument into bite-sized chunks, and if the other person cooperates, they read the whole thing and reply with their own thread.

The character limit actually has a neat side effect: you can reply at the precise point of the argument you want to, and start a thread from there.

The main problem on Twitter is finding the right people to talk to, and the lack of moderation. Things get heated easily and there's no way to turn it back down. You end up in a small posse of people who share your views and values enough not to treat you like shit when you express yourself.
Rosa Parks committed a crime. Yes, the law was immoral and wrong, but it was a law. Rosa Parks is considered a hero because she stood up against an unjust law KNOWING that she was going to be prosecuted for her actions.

Aaron Swartz committed a crime. Yes, the law was immoral and wrong, but it was a law. Swartz believed that his internet status and his MIT association would shield him from the consequences of his action, and he killed himself when he realized he was going to be treated like a nobody and subjected to the same sorts of prosecutorial pressure that affects thousands of Americans every day.

He was no hero, and it's frankly ridiculous and demeaning to the memory of Rosa Parks and what she went through to use her life story to prop him up. The US Civil Rights movement is one where people took actions that they KNEW were illegal partly because they knew how bad the optics would be. Famous Civl Rights leaders used the after-release press conferences as pulpits to preach their sermons of racial equality.

I still haven't gotten used to Visual Studio 2019 as I haven't done enough development at home and we've only just switched to using 2019 in the office.

Some features do look nice and interesting so I suppose I could try it out at home but that would mean more yak shaving in trying to set it up again.

EDIT: One of the things that will delay adoption is the breaking change of the VSSDK so all of the extension authors will need to update their extensions to work with the new version.

Otherwise there are a bunch of handy debugging features which would be nice to use.
It definitely would not be because that ruling does not overrule other bits of legislation, such as the prohibition against distribution or importation of tools to circumvent technical protection measure that all EU countries have.
> I only hope we have choices. Because this new internet they're trying to push is further away from RFCs and open protocols than we've ever been. And that's very sad.

We do have choices. There's a LOT of innovation happening on Ethereum right now with Decentraland, VR gaming, NFT's (so you actually own your own items) etc. The open, free Metaverse is coming.
I'm happy you looked into. But I adamantly refute your point that these networks function better as charities, because the charity approach has been tried with an identical LoRaWAN network with something called The Things Network. Coverage is abysmal but its free to use and you can participate in a community of nerds who like to do this in their free time. The charity case doesn't solve the problem of ubiquitous coverage.

Where does Helium token derive value? Their economic policy resembles a utility token, where transacting on the network costs a fixed dollar value per packet, and these 'credits' are derived from burning the native network token HNT. There are a few other burning mechanisms as well. The credits get paid out to the node which routes traffic. Helium nodes costs less than $2/month to operate (5-10W electricity).

The longevity is uncertain, for sure. Its easy to call this growth model a resounding success but people are hesitant to build entire products on top of it because of the questions you raise. For now the Helium team is having good success convincing disparate Lorawan networks to roam onto Helium as a sort of extended coverage product, where range is high but may not be super reliable.

All things considered this is a very new way of bootstrapping network infrastructure and appears very promising, and tokens are priced accordingly. It doesn't stop with Lorawan, 5G and wifi offload are launching this month and next year respectively. As with most things in crypto, they will either swallow the competition or fade into obscurity. I believe Helium is a strong asymmetric bet on disruption of network operator, neutral hosts and vertical asset industries.

> The citizens of this country generally didn’t have to wear face masks; young children continued going to school; leisure activities were largely allowed to continue unhindered.

As I recall from the news, older children mostly switched to distance learning, large events were canceled, restaurants, museums and the like were shut down or had restricted capacity, and people feeling sick were immediately were given paid sick leave by the government. Hardly the same as no response, nor really comparable to, say, Florida.

In comparison to the "noble experiment" of prohibition, well, the Swedes didn't go that route either - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1922_Swedish_prohibition_refer... - but still put into place a system that those NYC protesters would have likely called "tyrannical" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bratt_System .

> Researchers from Uppsala University, the Karolinska Institute and the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm produced a model powered by supercomputers that predicted 96,000 Swedes would die before the summer of 2020.

] Our model predicts that, using median infection-fatality-rate estimates, at least 96,000 deaths would occur by 1 July without mitigation. Current policies reduce this number by approximately 15%, while even more aggressive social distancing measures, such as adding household isolation or mandated social distancing can reduce this number by more than 50%.

Probably has nothing to do with organic and much to do with where your stuff comes from, time of harvest, care taken in transport, length of storage, etc. Since there's a strong correlation I guess it's good to buy organic.

The best stuff I eat comes from my garden but I'm not organic - I use Miracle Gro and toss conventionally grown scraps in my compost. I don't use pesticides so for the most part I think I'm doing the right thing.

I think there's a lesson in here about good intentions and what happens when you fail to consider abuse.

In this case, there's a whole cottage industry that seems to consist most of people with a script or two, some email templates, and a copy of Burp. Generally in some poor, underprivilged corner of the Earth. Each $50 or $100 bounty is quite a lot of money to them. $500 could easily be a month's average income there.

I have no doubt that plenty of them are good people, looking to better themselves from a deeply disadvantaged state and gain access to a lucrative profession. Yet many also seem to be no better than spammers with no interest in learning more about information security. They just want to run their script, blast out spam, and get a bounty or two.

Security.txt and the general way vulnerability reporting works is very vulnerable to this kind of abuse. It would be nice if there was a better way to handle it, but as Troy points out we're currently limited to networking. That's pretty far from ideal.

I have been practicing "write-only" social media for about the last 5 years. It became a compromise between wanting to stay in touch with friends and extended family while not wasting too much of my own extremely valuable free time inside some corporation's walled sandbox.

The reality of it that 99% of social media is politics (arguing), hot-takes, and memes. And all of it has negative intellectual value.

In write-only social media, I will post occasional updates and photos, but as an absolute rule I do not scroll the newsfeed. I have all notifications turned off, so if someone replies or "likes" my posts, I don't know about it unless I remember to go back to check on it, which I usually don't.

This doesn't have to mean turning your social media presence into a one way street: if I'm thinking of someone, I will often to to their profile and see what they've been up to lately. But I certainly don't need daily updates of their cat or favorite political memes to get through my day.

I know there are those who are going to say that using social media like this is pretty selfish. It might be. And if it is, I'm more than okay with that. I would much rather be selfish than waste my all of my free time as a scrolling zombie.
Not only that, but it should be pretty clear that using a combination of vision technologies (cameras, LIDAR, RADAR, sonar...) means that more edge cases should be covered. The failure conditions for optical wavelength cameras are different than for LiDAR, or infrared cameras, so really good sensor fusion should theoretically reduce the number of situations in which the internal model of the world has major errors. I'd rather be in a self driving car with 6 cameras and a 360-degree LiDAR then one with 20 cameras, even if 20 cameras are providing more information about the world.
Hmm. I will look into that. You should just be able to swipe down on the card to dismiss it.

It really depends on what you replace it with.
