I love seeing different patterns in a simple layout.

I wish there was way more of this throughout software development.

Some examples:

1. High level sketches for login pages, settings pages, payment pages, etc.

2. Diagrammed patterns for async functionality after a user signs up, such as putting them in a queue, sending a follow up email, etc.

3. Different DB schemas for storing user preferences, stripe information, shopping carts, message queues, etc.
> Bodycams are frankly an attempt to answer "who watches the watchmen", porch cameras are not.

That's missing the point, and possibly willfully missing the point?

The point is.... people are being watched. Both criminals and police change their behavior when they know they're being monitored, or under surveillance.

> They both involve cameras but I don't see the connection aside from that, and would dispute one thing being the inverse of the other.

Again, I can only guess willful ignorance it to blame. criminals take steps to avoid cameras, or cover their faces. Police are less likely to abuse their authority when the body cam is activated. Do you see the connection, in both scenarios the subject changes behavior.

No one is claiming it works - I'm refuting the point you've made which is that it doesn't work - which is contrary to what the data shows. The data shows that it's not reaching the medical milestone you refer to, but it does show that it's more likely helping.

You've claimed it doesn't work - nothing says that. Nothing even suggests that.
The only way I was able to really feel like I understood regular expressions was implementing a regex engine myself.

I respect the privacy of my readers, so I’d never dream of using Google Analytics - it’s awful.

Both Plausible, Fathom and GoatCounter are privacy respecting alternatives to GA. However, all JavaScript based analytics are blocked by lots of people, so they’re not that accurate. They’re indicative at best.

Then there’s web log parsers, like AWStats. They catch everything, which is where another problem comes in. Crawlers. Many of these tools try to rule out web crawlers, but never catch them all, so these tools tend to over inflate your visitors numbers. Once again, they’re indicative at best.

I’m currently using Netlify Analytics on my site, which uses logs, but I’m thinking about cancelling my subscription and just being blissfully unaware of who’s visiting my site.
I'm not saying I live in fear of it either. I'm saying I don't care to participate in marriage because it is currently an institution that has not allowed itself to be modified to fit couples as they see fit. It is a one-size option and it - unfortunately - does not work for people like myself.

If I was to marry - I'd have to marry someone with the same level of income, spending/saving habits, and so forth for the marriage to be "equal" in the eyes of the law. As it stands - I don't consider that as much of a factor for my relationships because I'm an extremely giving person. However, my willingness to give everything to someone ends when the relationship does. If I choose to not interact with this person anymore then why should I be in their debt until the end of time?

It's not worth it. It creates a perverse power incentive for people in the marriage as well. Again - maybe you're not in that situation but I was making $400K+ and they were making $0 for years. They had no intention of ever working because they knew I could pay for everything. It went from gratefulness in our first year to entitlement by the end of our relationship and had spread like a plague ruining everything. I cannot fathom how much they would feel entitled to if we had been legally married - even if they contributed literally nothing. And I'm dead serious - they didn't do housework or child raising or anything either - they did nothing and yet there are no absolutely no enforceable protections for people like myself... BESIDES not marrying - which is what I advocate for.

I advocate for love, support, giving, and so much but it needs to be on your terms. It cannot be on the terms of some archaic governmental, cultural, and religious institution.

An opposite statement can be said with the same amount of authority though: There is a common perception that companies only create policies we don't like through accidents and unforeseeable outcomes, not by specifically crafting policies to benefit the company. But sometimes bad policies are malicious and designed to maximize profits, even at the expense of long-term profits and customer retention. Maybe call to unsubscribe is one of those policies.

As someone that has worked (briefly) for a company that operated in this fashion (and being a partial owner of one that the CEO tried to shift to this model...we got the board together and fired him), it is not an accidentally bad policy. It is actively discussed as a way to squeeze out an extra pay cycle (and often more) of payments. In recorded meetings or audited channels (such as email) or even PR releases, you are guided to discuss it as a "personal touch with the customer" and to help "lost customers" resolve the issues rather than cancel. You even try to convince your employees/engineers that is the reason. But when it is face-to-face conversations, the discussions are around the dollars and squeezing out as many pay cycles as you can. I know I was being a bit cheeky with my first paragraph, but this is definitely not one of those "whoops, we didn't think this through" kind of policies. If it were, the policy would have changed without the FTC or laws being needed.
Welp, this is a silly project that I have no choice but to try. Looks straightforward and rewarding with a nifty end result.

You can combine it all in a chip like the Apple T2 and then you would have to somehow probe the silicon, which is of course impossible. (Until you discover that the chip has some critical, unfixable software vulnerability like the T2)

You can also pair the chip and the CPU at the factory or on initial powerup and have them communicate encrypted from thereon. This is a bit like the iPhone 13 display having some FaceID chip on it where a replacement with a wholly new display will leave FaceID non-functioning.
Kyle Rittenhouse, Project Veritas, and Inability to Think in Terms of Principles
I know someone who worked in the ad bot industry. It’s real. Fake clicks, fake impressions, and all that. He eventually got out and went into adtech to build detection methods. Probably better career move for him.
I don't think there is such a thing as broken beyond repair. How would you even begin defining that? If you're thinking in economic terms then sure, we can try to optimize a limited budget to save/improve the maximum number of lives. It would still be beneficial to have at least a few people look into whether new methods can be developed to increase the amount of "good life" you get per dollar. Giving up and deciding something is beyond repair can be one course of action in this optimization, but it seems counter productive, and perhaps a bit unethical, to try and generalize this position. Having the thought, and the discussion, is obviously totally fine.
I'll add one idea to the list: tracking moving objects using IBIS.

Like when you shoot moving car or flying bird - use existing autofocus to detect the object and then track it over exposure time to keep it free from motion blur but get nice, blurred background. Pentax have simple version of that for tracking stars mentioned in the article but I hope some company figures out how to do it for arbitrary, fast moving objects in real-time.

Sony a9 series already got rid of blackout during shooting so it is technically possible to get image data in realtime, have continuous autofocus and save full size RAW files at the same time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZXFI-eIXk8
P2P Matrix is a moonshot, but it's coming together really well. The only bits left at this point are:

* Making Pinecone resilient to attacks. It's working well for clear weather scenarios, but we need to properly try to break it and get it audited. Need to test it at scale too.

* Improving Dendrite so that it's more stable and efficient clientside

* Metadata-protecting store-and-forward, so that clients can pass messages to each other without needing to be online at the same time. You can cheat and run a serverside P2P node to relay, but then it stacks up metadata - whereas half the point of P2P is reduce Matrix's metadata footprint.

* Account portability. Currently each node is a separate account; need to support the same logical account being replicated over multiple nodes.

* Better than full-mesh routing. This should be pretty easy as we can just follow Pinecone's topology to route traffic between nodes rather than having each node try to simultaneously post to every other node in a given room.

You can get testflight & APK builds from #p2p:matrix.org if you want to experiment.
> I'm not convinced though that developing countries are actually lower compliance

They aren't, and there is far less opportunity to escape compliance. Deviation is an exclusive privilege of the prevailing strong men. Everyone else tows the community line and occupies their time scrutinizing precisely how well others are towing it as well. The romantic fiction that there is some great liberty in such places is a form of noble savage fantasy that emerges among those that have fully inculcated the contempt for their own culture they were trained to have.
I think Forth is unique in that you actually can be both high-level and low-level productive in a single "system", but I can also see the perspective that high-level Forth is more of just a concatenative language than a high level Forth as such. Regardless I think Forth's power is that it can be both a very low level language or a high level runtime.
As I said, the most moderate faction of the mujahideen was literally a religious order. They all believed to be taking their orders from God in one way or another, and even the most moderate ones were organized around religion.

The CIA only ever directly financed the more extreme elements that I know of. The more moderate ones, ironically, got all of their funding through Pakistan, though Pakistan gave more to the extremists.

If the CIA gave them more money because they wore more effective, it doesn't change the fact that they directly fomented the rise of Islamic fundamentalism.
Exactly, and I'm sure they want to keep their lines open for the real emergencies.
Beeper seemed cool but trying to find out more it just put me on a waitlist. Element One is extremely limited in bridges.

Element One mentions subdomains and beeper mentions self hosting but neither seem to comment on personal domains which seem a natural fit to use for a federated service.

If you teach your kid the lesson that life sucks and trying is for suckers, don't be surprised when they believe it and don't get anywhere in life because they never try.
It isn't that straightforward for GAN.
It always (still?) surprises me how difficult it is to share files across the Internet. You'd think this would have been a solved problem already given how long we've been communicating with each other electronically.
“When I was a kid I never got help from my parents on these projects, and hated the kids who "won" because their parent helped.”

I wish my parents had shown interest in stuff like this and supported me to some degree. It’s not about doing the whole project for the kids but showing interest is super helpful. I often gave up on stuff because my dad would basically say “what’s this nonsense for?”

I noticed this when read books about Steve Wozniak and Richard Feynman. Their dads showed interest and encouraged them to explore the world and also challenged them from time to time.

No.

Like I said in another comment - I'd wager the majority of HTTP use cases have nothing to do with a browser or HTML/CSS/JS.

HTTP2 might be nicer when you're serving static content to a browser; debatable, but I'll give the benefit of the doubt.

In all the other vast domains of HTTP usage HTTP2 does nothing good.

It’s limited to 0.2%, which is why the card companies have been asking customers to pay a monthly cost for the cards instead.
Makes sense. If someone throws a ball into the air and you want to catch it, you predict where it will go. Along the way, if there is an error between prediction and actual position, you adjust for it.

The auction will not sell for any less than the maximum amount the DAO has raised.

If the DAO are heavily incentivized to bid, and you know what their max value is, somebody will bid them up. Sotheby’s is too smart not to make sure that happens.

It is generally a moronic idea to raise funds for an auction like this. You will never get a good deal and your competition knows exactly what your limit is.
> A lot of these features are nice to have but definitely not essential, especially for general amateur photography.

While I agree with you, I feel like on a mirrorless, the Sensor Dust Protector Curtain is essential if you want to be able to change lenses while out in the field.

Many years ago I used to work for a small local paper, they gave me a DSLR so I had the luxury of the sensor being at least partially protected by the mirror. (I wish they gave me two bodies so I didn't have to swap lenses, but it was a small newspaper and they didn't have a lot of money).

Now I own a mirrorless (that I don't use professionally) and I would never attempt to change the lens unless I'm in an indoor, non-dusty room, without fans or a/c operating. Just looking at the naked sensor staring back at me makes me nervous ;-)

I can't imagine swapping lenses on the mirrorless while on assignments, I think I would have to resort to buying a couple of bodies just to avoid lens swapping.

The curtain protection would solve that problem.
How can it go the other way, when it is specifically defined otherwise?

Well, out of other private collector hands, into their own private collector hands. As other commenters have pointed out, the members of the public who donate to this don't have any form of ownership.
My point is that it can be hard to tell a real emergency from a non-real one. Not everyone is going to be sobbing and shouting. Some may sound calm and alright. If you've known someone who committed suicide, you probably know that there isn't always a flashing warning sign the day of. There is sometimes, but it's not reliable. I think it's important for a hotline to treat all calls equally.
People on their 20 ties are more energetic and better handle sleep deprivation that comes with kids. Kids are not just costing money, they cost energy and effort.
I don’t think they can move the sensor fast enough. It would also only work for objects whose parts don’t move. Airplanes may work but with birds the wings move in different directions.

But I think with much faster sensor readouts you will be able to compute sharp images sometime in the future.
It was literally just taking the phone away for the rest of the day, that's it. So, no.
My impression differs.

The caller left the experience feeling more disheartened and unsupported. Logically that seems like they were at an _increased risk of suicide_ relative to when they called.
That’s not really HDR though.
I’ve had friends tell me that they wouldn’t move to the US because everything it’s too rigid or strict, there are no ways out - think HOAs with street cameras strict

They like living in a developing country that allows more lax behavior- throw a loud party and the cops don’t care, no one will sue you either, you can get by without a credit score or just grease some palms to get stuff done

Edit: imagine no IRS, or wage garnishment for debts, no zoning, OSHA, ADA - basically the state having little power to make you comply

More flexibility as the system doesn’t form your behavior - although at the same time it can come down hard on you if it wants

Your rights won’t mean much though
Back in the day I love the trillio or something like that client that connected a bunch of different networks together in a single app for the very reason you talk about. I wanted to chat with my friends, and others but some where on AOL, some on MSN, some on gchat, etc etc

Today the would connect Facebook, Teams, Slack, Whatsapp, signal, etc etc...

That would be the dream....
From what I can tell, many of the needs of all of this whole comment section would be achieved with a "thin client" camera. Some large, dumb, image sensor, with an IMU, that uses a smartphone for everything other than recording a raw image/video stream.

That's not what I meant. The majority of money in circulation is not issued by central banks, but instead is money that is created out of thin air by commercial banks that operate under fractional reserve banking. In other words, fractional reserve banking expands the money supply. This means that if bitcoin became money, the supply of bitcoins would not be fixed at all, contrary to what many of its advocates believe, because fractional reserve banking would create a colossal amount of new bitcoins, just like now it creates colossal amounts of new dollars. So the promise of a fixed supply of money cannot happen, unless a world-wide ban on fractional reserve banking occurs first, somehow.
