The DA was claiming that his hands were clean, that whatever problem the defense had were not the DA's office fault (although he did blame the crime lab at some point).

His last attempt at claiming clean hands was that he was too technically incompetent to do so maliciously. But that's BS. Even if he doesn't know what handbrake does, if he uses it he's using it to somehow modify it. that's not allowed defense is allowed the exact copy the DA has.

Also, I have a lot of trouble believing that anyone, having used handbrake, hasn't noticed a drop in quality in the video.
A good framework I’ve heard for this is “scaffolding” - as a parent you can provide a little structure to help your child solve problems that might otherwise be out of reach. As the child learns you gradually step down support until they’re able to succeed on their own.

In the working world we call this mentorship. It’s surprising to me that the practice is controversial when applied to children that have so much more to learn.
Or:

* Developers on the team value their sanity and timebox chunks of time for deep focus work, leaving only parts of the day for reviews. Some developers may even take vacations or go to talk to customers, leaving a small team with less review bandwidth.
This is a fairly good explanation of how there were actually two Captain Nemos. When Verne wrote 20,000 Leagues under the Sea, he modeled Nemo as a Polish aristocrat fighting the Russian empire. By the time he wrote The Mysterious Island, Verne's political focus had shifted and he recast Nemo as an Indian prince fighting the British empire. Few people realize this distinction, so portrayals of Nemo in popular culture tend to be an amalgam of these two characters.
These registry keys are completely ignored on the latest version of Windows 11.

MS documented the change here, very buried:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-11-specifica...

Look under "Feature deprecations and removals" > "Search Results from the Internet" and you see:

"Windows 11 does not support disabling the return of internet Search results via Registry Key."

They imply there that you can still use Group Policy to make this change, but... that doesn't work either in the latest builds.
Thank you for the summary!

This submission was flagged once already but then cleared. The feedback was that linking to the actual document might in some instances be ok but then a good comment on why the document is interesting would be needed.

I believe that with your comment linking to the actual document would be ok.
Your first scenario only works if the police take the complaint and follow up. As I mentioned in other replies, I'm vacationing in the Dominican Republic. The police will not take the complaint without more information, thus they will not make a request to Uber because they don't know what to request. Uber refuses to disclose the same trip history for driver canceled rides as they do for passenger canceled rides.

Thus your reverse scenario and your forward scenario do not match. Because in your reverse scenario both driver and Rider have a history of it in your forward scenario neither driver or Rider have a history to refer to.

This is the Crux of the exploit. Without this information showing up in the trip history of the rider drivers are free to exploit them with impunity. Perhaps if you find a very zealous law enforcement officer in the USA who's willing to pursue this you might get somewhere. Even then if you cannot show that you actually had a ride they may drop the investigation entirely as well.
> Actually, my num_cpu crate has been downloaded 24 times in less than 24 hours, but I’m not sure if it’s by bots or real persons.

Presumably the author could include some payload which phones home with a randomly generated ID, to detect how many machines the package could take control over. That's probably more meaningful than trying to decide whether the package was downloaded by a "bot", and wouldn't involve any GDPR-breaking information.
Do you think this would have landed better if the recruiter would have first asked you for YOUR availability before sending their link? Or was it just the act of sending a link of any type that required a click on your part?
The biggest challenge has been getting over the "just one more feature..." trap and actually launching the thing. I still see so many areas for improvement, but it's nice to see that people appreciate how far it's come.

In terms of technical challenges, the biggest one by far has been creating flows that are reliable over time. Sites change all the time so having automation that's reliant on HTML structure, CSS classes, or pieces of text is inevitably going to be brittle, but I want to minimize how often flows break. Browserflow aims to generate flows that will remain stable for as long as possible, but there's certainly a lot of room for improvement.
I think* with ASP.NET Razor Pages. You can do the same thing as:

@page
@{
var user = "root";
}

<p>
Hello @user

any offline transaction under your floor limit can put you into unauthorised overdraft

e.g. a train ticket purchase from a guard using a mobile terminal
yeah, like others have pointed out, you might be correct about it being a massive overkill for most users. It takes me at least 10 to 15 minutes to spin up a cluster and configure it before I can start anything.
Was it? I was listening on the radio in the car when they were searching for a laptop. I don't remember who gave it to them, but they were instructed to make sure the laptop was clean.

Also, I'm not sure that the screenshot is of the jury's laptop. Isn't it Binger's after he turned it around to show something?

Either way, doesn't matter. Someone in the DAs office fiddled with the laptop and their laptops are loaded with this software. The DA is responsible for his office. The DA is responsible that the defense didn't get the proper copy.
desoldering an SMD resistor is actually pretty easy. Just blob some solder on your soldering iron so that the ball on the end of your iron is about the width of the resistor. Then basically place the iron right next to the resistor with slight pressure to the side. the blob of solder will transfer heat to both pads, and it should dislodge pretty quickly (~2s or so). If it doesn't budge, feed in a bit more solder right at the resistor.

It would certainly help to have a temperature controlled iron (but not required). If you are buying an iron new, there is no reason not to buy a temperature controlled one these days. Something like the SH72 is more than adequate for this (~$21 on amazon, cheaper on aliexpress). There are also much better ones available if you are willing to spend some more. (I highly recommend any of the T12 soldering stations ~$50-60 on aliexpress)
Pair programming doesn't scale for all the purposes of code review. Pair programming can be great for bursts and unblocking when there is good alignment, but code review serves as an enduring artifact for the whole team including future team members.
Can anyone tell me what sort of environmental impact studies are done before a project like this breaks ground and where (if) I can read them?
There is literally no reason to believe that what people are in the areas they lived in with the technology they had was somehow better for a person than regular food today. It pretends that everyone are the same food and that the food was somehow optimal rather than just what was available.

Its a bunk premise.
React Cognito
Maybe a good time to ask...what do you actually do with lego bricks once you've built whatever is on the box? I have a terrible imagination, and I find the replayability factor abysmal with these kits. I'm sure there are people who can take a box of 500+ random pieces and have fun, and I wish I could as well. These things just never clicked for me.
More similar than different, IMO. The goal might be different, but the effect is the same. The pertinent bit is that both treat the user as hostile.
It was really hard for me to be OK with being mediocre. In anything. And it’s not that I’m competitive with others - primarily I’m hard on myself and looking to beat my own performance.

Realizing it was OK to suck and to do things for fun really opened up some hobbies. But I couldn’t imagine showing up for 40+ hours a week and being mediocre. That would burn me out because I’d be using skills or doing a job outside of my natural ability and seeing mediocre results. I’d keep looking until I found a role that a) paid the bills and b) used enough of my education or talent to be at least good with a moderate level of effort.
My apologies, I'll rewrite it. [edit: edit window has passed, I missed it] Sorry for making more work for you, dang!

Can you help me understand what the best way to express the intent in that last sentence is ("this kind of statement is anti-intellectual and shouldn't be on HN", roughly) without being unkind? (feel free to email me, address is in my profile)
if they disagree with your assessment it's a different story with a debit vs. credit card

the key difference is with the debit card it's your money that's been stolen, whereas with a credit card it's the bank's money
Right but your diff for #94 will include all of the changes in #80 as well, because it's being compared to the main branch. When you do this a few layers up your diff is suddenly massive and hard to navigate for review.

Also if you need to change anything about #80 you have to rebase #94. Which also means the same for any other branches that you or someone else created on top of #94 that depended on #80 landing
You can set it up more easily in Europe, getting a credit card is not as easy here.
The Godfather 2 came out for PC sometime back and I swear it was on Steam, now I can't figure out how to get it, EA doesn't have it, nor Steam. It would be nice if game app stores did something like 'Movies Anywhere' but basically 'Games Everywhere' without requiring every app store to play a game.

Yeah I do think that would have helped.
I Learned to Not Defer My Life
If you could predict the future, it'd be easy. And you can pretty much learn any language.

The question is who's hiring/where will you work, and what will you work on? In my area, there aren't many PHP shops. So it could be Wordpress or Facebook/Meta. PHP might be long-lived, but if you have to relocate to find a PHP job, does that help? Same with e.g. COBOL, Sharepoint, etc. And to be fair, what's rising has that problem outside tech centres.

Something popular like Python is generally a "better" investment, covers more bases.
Oh wow, you're a real one. Glad to see you here. :)

I know, right? HTML is the ultimate API and I also found it strange that there aren't tools around helping people work with it more effectively. Hence Browserflow!
Except owners of the governance tokens have zero legal authority.

Traditional shareholders have actual legal voting power. Nothing is stopping this group from ignoring governance token votes.
I can’t tell if you’re arguing for PHP or against COBOL. I kid, but a lot of the other languages/ecosystems people will consider investing in are at least as old and evolving right alongside PHP. Many of them with very similar evolutions.
See also the recent thread on headphones where people are complaining about non-replaceable batteries and longevity, but a minority are digging out soldering irons and replacing batteries and fixes broken devices.
Actually, it is not in the paper either. Instead it is in the blog post author's reading of the paper.

> So if you don't quite follow the letter of the text about acceptor selection, and then do follow the text about how acceptors handle accept messages, then you end up with the bug

I was able to read a short sentence from a newspaper in a dream, so it's possible to visualize each character, but then nothing else was happening in my dream, probably that should have kept my mind pretty busy.

I'm working on a site right now. Can you tell me what would be the basics?
Finally some instructions I can follow!
On the contrary, certain CSPs did this already (quietly) and further, had already developed hardware mitigations for things like meltdown, spectre and rowhammer.
Could caring for these kind of people have a utility in helping us think about compassion, and our values in a more broad way, that enables not making sub optimal decisions in cases that would have negative returns.. To use this thread as an example .. if we were in a society that was black and white utilitarian about one type of disability, it might lead to that thinking being applied directly and 'naturally' to this mental health issue also.
I have been looking for something like mail a letter forever, thanks for sharing it.
I've noticed that a bunch of camera brands have started making 'vlogger' cameras targeted towards youtubers and others. The camera I'm describing is pretty much what an 'influence' camera would look like or the next stage of these vlogger cameras. Someone who would benefit from their photos being higher quality and also wants a way to frictionlessly publish them quickly. A Ricoh GR with the features I describe would be the ideal version of this.
React in AU is the in demand software job. The market looks to be going crazy for React devs more than anything else. Start looking now before the borders open again and salaries go down.

Take a contract, when I was job hunting I was frequently seeing React as the highest paying/in demand roles available.
Core indeed. The first P in XMPP standards for Presence.
yes that’s a possibility too, but then the typical merge resolution rules should apply. If there are common areas modified that is going to incur a manual review. There’s no magic automation I’d really entrust to fixing that.
This case is not so cut and dry.

It looks like ImpossibleHQ's trademarks had nothing to do with food until 2016 when they filed a trademark in the nutrition space

Impossible Foods was started before 2016, so it would seem to have priority in the food space.
This is exactly the type of behavior that gives people legitimate, reasonable arguments for not trusting the government. I’m pro-vaccine and I’m super-rankled by this nonsense. Also, I regularly review 500+ pages of discovery for redaction and disclosure, alone, over 3-4 days, while still working full-time… I’m pretty sure the federal government could figure out how to work a skosh faster.
Or "why I totes wasn't wrong last time guys, for real."
Yeah good sensor cleaning minimises the issue but I feel like the curtain would remove the source of the problem altogether
I don't sadly, but it would be amazing
How is software presumably well known to a large portion of the site's audience relevant news merely for reason of some people outside of this site's audience discovering it for the first time? And what's there to discuss about it since its features have been the same for many years?

I think the gaming example is qualitatively different from the cycling example. In cycling, you've lost sight of the goal, which can be best served by cycling. Unless your hobby is actually building bikes, which I'd say is a different but valid hobby.

In gaming, including sports, this tension is common, and it's satisfied by competing at an appropriate level.
Can't help but think that the relationship to death and violence then was beyond the comprehension our post-industrial domestication. Let us not even get started on the Romans.
I've got a brown thumb too, but I've started playing "doctor bonsai" with the seedlings that I uproot while weeding. And to be honest I only 'weed' trees because I don't want big problems in my very small yard. I put them in tapwater, in little cups in my office. One time, I tried to give them plant food and they all died. Should have used the liquid stuff? Oh well. They're just seedlings, I'll have a fresh crop next year. The one I didn't try to feed still has some fine roots, but the cat got its leaves. I figure I should try a drop of liquid food in the spring? Who knows. For now, I change the water every few weeks so it doesn't get manky. I guess all the failure means it isn't 'easy', but I'm sure having fun. Cheap as it gets, too.
That's what I think the anti-Rittenhouse side doesn't see. This trial is a perfect example of DAs getting caught doing shady things and even a sympathetic judge doesn't have the courage to throw the case out.

It's an amazing example of how rotted justice in America is. But since it doesn't fit into the racial-power narrative it's ignored. This is the case that could teach middle America that their justice system is broken and needs reform.

Guilty or innocent, the DA has done so much BS that the case should have been thrown out w/ prejudice [1] a long time ago.

[1] mistrial w/ prejudice means Rittenhouse get's off. The argument for prejudice is that the prosecution is making too many serious violations for the mistakes to be innocent. And if they're not innocent mistakes, then prejudice attaches.
"Indexable" here means that the content is made accessible in a form such that it can be indexed for searching. You can't search through a YouTube video, and this makes them significantly worse than textual documents that can be.
You are bootstrapping your understanding of society on that assumption itself and thus begging the question.

Do you actually get out and talk to people? Most people are ok with nuance. Most things we consume as entertainment, from lowbrow housewives of Atlanta to highbrow pbs space time are full of dizzying nuance and unknowable truths (but not star trek. Star trek no longer has nuance).

Living in the woods was for bandits. But it's not obvious that the idea was less popular then than now -- one of the earliest references to Robin Hood is just a complaint that the stories are so popular they're damaging the spiritual fabric of society.
Yeah in that situation, I like to think it really is more efficient and it makes sense to give up preconceptions about etiquette. It seems to me (and I know it's silly) it's fine to use it for more impersonal stuff, but more touchy for scheduling amongst notional peers or people of similar standing, where it sort of automatically signals the requestor is more important than the time picker.

One thing to add, I've actually asked for people to send me a calendly before, I think that's a good social compromise for everyone- it let's me feel like I initiated the transaction, and overall we still get to schedule efficiently.
None of the reasons listed exclusively argue for PHP; unconvincing. To start the article with the type system of PHP as a reason to learn it in $CY is insanity.
The text on this site is huge because it is set in the body to “150%”. This seems like an odd choice. Is there any good reason to do this?
Except for Wrigley Field, which is eternal.
Like in any field, when you go from hobby to doing it as a job, any trivial task becomes a problem if you have to repeat it dozens of times per month.

Perhaps you can create a macro to apply the same edit automatically to all your imported pictures. In a fast paced industry like news, that's still an unwelcome overhead though.
There's a Go port that we're pretty happy with.
Ya that's basically what I was getting at. Not about COBOL, but about others that are similarly long lasting in the market, dynamically typed, and general purpose.

XML is still relevant, useful, and better than YAML for most of YAML's use cases.

The rest of his arguments, meh, whatever. I'm guessing in another 10 years he'll write another post exactly like this. XML and BTC will still both have a place in the world.
Hello, my fellow engineers. :)

The reason for having limitations for local automations is a business one, not a technical one. I like the idea of scaling the price based on how much value Browserflow provides (if it saves someone hours of work, paying less than 20 bucks should be a no-brainer) so that's why there are runtime limits by plan.
I get that bad news sells. It grabs attention I think partly because it's useful. It's a sort of 'prediction error' which helps us to learn from the misfortunes and mistakes of others.

However this doesn't explain the preponderance of pessimism in sci-fi. People generally turn to fiction for inspiration or at least comfort. Responsible parents would consider it wrong to read stories with bad endings to their children. Yet we have been pumping demoralising and potentially self-fulfilling nonsense to wider society for a while now.
I feel like I must be misunderstanding what you're saying here, at least in the last sentence. I think of "first party" as "platform owner" and "third party" as, uh, not the platform owner, but third-party real-time messaging apps obviously can send push notifications on iOS and Android.

While it's been an awfully long time now, I seem to remember that services like AIM didn't successfully move to mobile because they required stateful connections similar to telnet/SSH, and that was something that just wasn't (and largely still isn't) possible under iOS.
There's two directions you can go: 1) you could just glue the pieces together and keep it as a model. This can also apply to models you find online.

2) you can sort and sell or give them to someone who will enjoy them. Sourcing sorted pieces is actually a big function of the used market.

It's perfectly acceptable to not enjoy a kind of toy. To each there own. I also tend to struggle with open-world games if there isn't some sort of goals set up
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antipope

"At this point, as again in the mid-11th century, we come across elections in which problems of harmonising historical criteria and those of theology and canon law make it impossible to decide clearly which side possessed the legitimacy whose factual existence guarantees the unbroken lawful succession of the successors of Saint Peter. The uncertainty that in some cases results has made it advisable to abandon the assignation of successive numbers in the list of the popes."

That is allegedly the official position - one must have faith in an unbroken line of Popes back to St. Peter, but practically speaking even the official compilers of The List of Popes aren't sure which to include.

Well, on most of his points, he wasn't.
Used Dask for various research experiments and scripts, and it's very good when you have to handle larger-than-memory datasets. When coming to algorithm parallelization, some quirks emerged, and debugging sent me completely nuts. I love Dask, but I think that the problem of parallelizing Python code is not solvable by Dask alone.
A bit disappointing that it's only the C# interpreter that has been released and not also the JS version used in Power Apps. Still neat to play with though.
Go is dynamically linked in order to use glibc's name resolution functions, as it doesn't support all of glibc NSS's (arguably bloated and mostly unneeded) functionality.

Anyway, I too found the "file not found" error to be terribly unhelpful the first time I encountered it half a decade go. I thought I was going crazy.
Combine a really neat data structure with the possibility of becoming a billionaire, and it’s no surprise that programmers are entranced.

Every hour like clockwork they try and close the issue with no response at all. They're just asking for this to blow up in their face when this happens to some celebrity with lots of followers.

Great article for PHP devs too. I've spent a lot of time in PHP over the years and found there is a bunch of stuff I didn't know about.
