Fun fact: Russian translation of Dancing men is legitimately solvable, with messages being _in Russian_!
The translators had to butcher the characters' names and twist the deduction logic here and there — but it's still a marvel of localization work (especially given the languages, grammar and even alphabets being very different).
Austria has it especially hard since they earn a lot of money from outside tourism during the winter ski season, which is the prime season for higher covid numbers and hospitalization overload. Its a desperate measure as they seem to loose at least half of the winter season this year again.
No, but there will be fines ("Verwaltungsstrafen", which can be converted to "Ersatzfreiheitsstrafen" - jail time - if you are unable or unwilling to pay).
Because apparently they are too dumb to evaluate low risk-low cost interventions like wearing a mask in a different way from high risk-high cost interventions like taking a new drug.

FATCA fixed nothing at all.

How can you possibly say that the US is not in that category?!
I assume by "rich" they are talking top 10% or whatever of society? I live in the UK and it's well-known that you can't just get there through hard work. You have to be born into it. But let's assume it just means rich within your class. If so, I think I qualify as rich. Life is pretty easy and I just always seem to have enough money to do whatever I want to do.

But it wasn't always like this for me. I've always been into computers and programming and my degree is computer science, but I started off my career in academia doing biological research. There were loads of really smart people doing what I was doing and I know some were earning a bit less than me. But financially I was floundering. Starting off in the negative thanks to student loan, it took me 4 years to hit 0 (although, I should say the student loan is a "soft" liability, not like a real bank loan or something). This must have been the same or similar to my peers, I assume.

Then the work kind of dried up in academia and it forced me out. I got a job in a finance company and my net worth began to skyrocket. The following four years saw my net worth increase more than 10x what it did in the previous four (I left the finance job after only a year btw, just a software engineer now). But I'm not smarter than I was before. I could have easily ended up staying in academia and there's simply no way I would ever have been able to earn this much. So, yeah, luck definitely seems to have played a big part in making me "rich" and if I had skipped academia entirely then I would have been even more lucky, I guess.
So do fortresses normally have clockwise staircases?
Thus it's a completely pointless article
I don’t know enough science to be able to argue one or another. However his other posts shows he is just as biased as what he is calling out.

He casually says stuff like school closures will haunt society for 100 years. He repeats the same trope of not being a right winger and having previously been on the left or progressive while being so incredibly on the right and conservative, it is hard to imagine he was ever really progressive.
Routing (static or dynamic routes depending on the network setup), firewall + /etc/hosts depending on what you try to do exactly. There would probably be some guidance on how to support the old behaviour consistently in legacy networks.

H2 is not hard to store in liquified form, LH2. You just need good insulation. Earth is excellent insulation.

For aviation, sticking on a carbon that outweighs your hydrogens by almost 8x gives up a huge efficiency advantage. The efficiency advantage overcomes inconvenience of handling cryogenic LH2. My bet is the tanks will be nacelles slung under the wings alongside the engines.
What's wrong with biomass plantations as a source of renewable carbon, assuming you don't build them on rainforests?
How can this be a privacy-respecting search engine if it requires me to provide payment details for the ad-free version?
On top of that, the ad-free version requires a login and enables them to tie my search queries to my account.
The issue is the locked-in requirement to rely on the sole source of push notifications built into the system. Running your own persistent app is an ugly workaround that doesn't work more often than does.

Also, such apps are unloaded from time to time even on stock non-modified Androids.

It's not a priori obvious that a machine can learn to play chess in a similar way to the way a human can.

I suppose if AGI gets achieved then some of this will seem predictable in hindsight. But we don't yet know if it's achievable.
From the country that brought us Mozart, World War 1, Wittgenstein, Gödel, Hitler. So this is either a brilliant or horrible idea ^^
People either have a reduced risk of infecting themselves and others like the vaccines provide it or they do not. Reality does not care about believes and concerns. If one ignores reality for too long, it will biff one right on the nose.
Appreciating the Birdman/Breakfast Club reference here.
The question is posed so naively, it hurts me to see it. Being rich is not a function of how smart you are. In general people aren't wealthy because they're capable, but because they have access to resources, like land, manpower, natural resources, or money obtained other ways, e.g. inheritance.
AOSP is not Android. What Google distributes to OEMs and its direct customers is not AOSP. It is AOSP and the different Play Services including the Play Store and the Google applications with contracts mandating that they have to be provided to customers.

If you think people talk about AOSP when they talk about Android, you are always going to miss the point of these conversations.
This is a good question. The grammar of the C switch statement is not context-free. In practice this is easiest to resolve by just allowing case labels (which in the end are just decorated goto labels!) to appear anywhere, when it comes to parsing, and only check the existence of an enclosing switch during semantic analysis, which is necessarily context-sensitive anyway.
> Most wealth in the world is inherited and grows over generations.

According to "Inheritances and the Distribution of Wealth Or Whatever Happened to the Great Inheritance Boom?":

> Of the total wealth of the population, Kessler and Masson estimated that 35 percent originated from inheritances or gifts. Among those who had reported receiving an intergenerational transfer (who were about two and a half times richer than the average household), the corresponding proportion was 40 percent.

This proportion will probably drop if we exclude land.
I guess now you mention it, needing a yellow fever jab to enter Outer Mongolia is a precedent. Not sure what all the fuss is about.

Any seatbelt analogies for us too?
It's not certain yet. The government are preparing the measures to try to do it though.

We are entering a 10-20 day lockdown countrywide from Monday though.

Meanwhile in Vienna airport you still have small smoking rooms full of passengers beside the gates.
Those considerations are not going to be typical. Every perfect information game will have a pure strategy equilibrium.
I guess it depends on the location you are in, but saying as a reason to quit, that you feel you do not fit is entirely adequate. I assume there will be a leaving interview? At that point you can provide more detailed summary. One think I would be concerned about (not about quitting, but about you) is you mentioned burn out. Have you sought help? Please do, in any way that makes sense to you and does not impact on your future emplyability (again, this depends on employment law in your jurisdiction).
You can use a wordpress based lms, such as Tutor LMS, Learnpress, Sensei lms, etc..
Oh, some people in the media did call them out. They're not in the media anymore.
Every country is off worse with the "vax" than without - yet it's being pushed. The greatest puzzle of this century.
I meant the way their portrait in media was painted, as a party against all others, which made everyone not on good terms with current society stream into the AfD. That necessarily attracted less reputable members. I think at the time Höcke got prominent the radicalization already happened. Of course thy aren't blameless for their fate.
Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. These two statements don't say the same thing, although people do interpret it that way.

Hmm do LMSes really get built for the LTI protocol in mind? Or do they add it later for compatibility?
Yes. Horribly wrong.

The amount of teen sex has reduced drastically since those days. At least in the US. And the amount of unprotected sec has reduced even more.

Kids these days are having far less sex overall and far far less unsafe sex than their parents, who were having less than their parents.
IMHO this is much better than all these "vaccination ID card" that many other countries have been implementing (including mine), which basically

A) effectively forces you to vaccinate anyway (unless you want to live like a monk)

B) means I have to show what is effectively an ID card everywhere I go (and I really mean everywhere), and the poor employees have to waste time checking it
Maybe some of them are mandatory for a child after birth (though I question it because anyway doctors should get parent's signature to do it). But how could you force an adult who is totally ok with lockdown? Cut all access to basic necessities? Make police involved? How?
> I'm assuming the kernel you're referring to is the one from the linux-surface project? If so, which model and configuration of Surface Pro were you using?

Yes I used the linux-surface project. I used a Surface Pro 2017 with an Intel Core i7-7660U CPU. It doesn't have LTE. But touchscreen and pen worked without issues after some fiddling with configs. Battery life was a little worse then on Windows but not dramatically so.

> Is your XPS 13 the latest revision (i.e. 9310)? If it is, how does Nix handle sleep since Intel had removed S3 support?

Yes it's the 9310 model. I use suspend (systemctl suspend) and it works fine. I'm not sure how I can check whether S3 is actually supported. Battery life is about the same story as the Surface. A little bit worse compared to windows.
Thank you for the breakdown. I was under the impression that all these techniques are rather known (e.g. Homebrew also allows for random script executing by the mere virtue of installing a seemingly unrelated package) but I might have been wrong.
They were supposed to be the experts. In practice your dog was a better expert than they were.
UK to ban all in-hand mobile phone use while driving in 2022
A point a lot of people seem to miss is that there is a huge difference between making a vaccination mandatory, taking full responsibility for any side effects, and forcing people to get vaccinated by depriving them of their basic rights if they don't, but not taking any responsibility for side effects.
Marty the Moose
Yeah, I'm going to be looking for a new car in 2-3 years probably, but I have absolutely zero interest in SUVs and crossovers, so the market is looking more and more dire every year.

If I need an electric (most likely), and unless my finances improve sharply to include luxury models, I will probably be able to count my options on one hand.
Yes, I realize. Not against vaccines in general. I only wanted to know the extent to which the government is going to enforce it as in whether they fine you, put you to jail or vaccinate you forcibly against your will. I heard that the latter is already happening in Australia and personally know a person who fled to the EU for this reason.
It works well as a name to make people laugh. If they wouldn't laugh, they would cry. This is a good coping mechanism in the face of overwhelming tragedy and suffering.

I works well as a name to remind people that all this was caused by the neglect of the CCP that was instrumental in allowing the virus to spread.
Tasking developers with creating detailed estimates is a waste of time (2020)

There are studies done about this.

People who drink diet soda gain no more weight than people who drink regular soda.

It is true, however, that people who drink diet soda or regular soda gain more weight than those who don’t drink soda at all.

Turns out diet soda does not make things better from a weight loss perspective, but it doesn’t make thing a worse either, which negates risk compensation as a theory.
Which is criminal in any way you look at it.
I'm no dang but...

Abortion would be the closer analogy.

Also seatbelts don't require the sort of tracking infrastructure that a vaccine mandate requires. If the plan is a mandate with no tracking then that would be in the realm of comfortable precedent for me. But the experience so far in Australia (not Austria!) is that vaccine mandates are the most invasive privacy violation that the government has ever implemented.

Still, Google's costs of running Play Store are proportional to number of installs and maybe number of updates, not to amount of money users spend.

Google could charge accordingly without any "radical restructuring".
Executive Order Takes Aim at Non-Competes
The problem is cost.

Technically it is quite possible to produce hydrocarbons today. In theory a government could mandate, for example, 25% green hydrocarbons in fuel in 2030.

In practice, nobody will do that because that is political suicide.

The good thing about the current BEV cars is that over the lifetime of the car they are cost effective. I will be disruptive for a while. But we now have enough experience with BEV cars to know that they are a practical solution.

Telling people that they can keep driving ICE cars in the future, without telling them that green hydrocarbons are going to cost a fortune and would prevent everybody except some rich people from actually driving ICE cars does not help.

Of course, that could all change if we can find a cheap way to make green hydrogen at scale. With current technology we need to get rid of ICE cars. We can always revisit that if green hydrogen becomes abundant.

Personally I would also be happy if all burning of hydrocarbons gets removed from cities. There is no reason to keep breathing exhaust gasses other than that the fuel is cheap.
The logic is based on the idea that right-handed combatants will find it hard to wield their weapon effectively fighting their way up a clockwise staircase as the central column will get in the way, whereas those fighting down the staircase will have plenty of room near the outer wall/bannister to wield theirs. Conversely, an anti-clockwise staircase will give an advantage to right-handed combatants fighting up, and an impediment to those fighting down.

Therefore, given that the majority of people are right-handed (and lefties are often taught to fight right-handed anyway), and the idea that if an attacker manages to enter a castle they will then be fighting their way up the stairs against defenders above, clockwise staircases give an advantage to the people tasked with defending them.
This is not twitter.
Well, I'd say that your comment probably provides the biggest bang for the buck, educationally, if you edit the Wikipedia page :-)
not at all, was just saying LEDs in these wavelengths are terribly expensive, very cool project
As an Austrian I'd like to note: We've also previously had a vaccination mandate for smallpox. There's a precedent here, at least.

Whether you're for or against a vaccination mandate I leave up to debate. But either we get everyone vaccinated or everyone needs to actually follow proper COVID rules. The second option hasn't worked out great so far, as you might be able to tell.
They held out too long, should have opened a long time ago. Now their competitors have grown up. And it's too expensive to touch.
Would you mind explaining the difference between how these two scenarios play out, in practice?
That may well be true, but it isn't relevant. Game-playing engines are designed to win the position being played, not to maximize winning probability over its playing career.

Stockfish or AlphaZero don't care one bit about what happens in the next game they play.
There’s a publicly available playbook that lists in excruciating detail all the steps that should be taken.

In fact, for the most part, they include the steps that were taken, except if they were followed as in the playbook they would have been taken a lot earlier.

Edit: Here, I found a link for you:

They destroyed their credibility. That is stupid enough.
LTI is an afterthought for LMSes.

The standard is a classic patchwork of whatever is used by IMS members currently.

LTI 1.3 is the current active version, which deprecated 2.0.

But wait LTI is actually a collection of standards. AGS (assignment and grade services), DL (deep linking), dynamic registration, etc.

And they are optional, and LMSes implement them in slightly different ways.

So good times.

But wait, there's also the afterthought of 1.3 compatibility jury rigged on top of 1.0/1.1 implementations. Which leads to comical implementation details poking their ugly heads out :)
No they are not, you have a choice. Also in this case you have a choice, take the jab, leave the country or ehhh...get vaccinated forcefully? Commit suicide? Anyway, whatever, there is a choice and they have consequences or something. We live in a democracy you know.
A distinction should be made between coming up with a move and understanding the motivation for the move.

Incomprehensible moves are going to overwhelmingly be from deep searches while fast polynomial time heuristics such as that would come from neural networks are much more likely to be human discernible.
What is LMS?
>though I question it because anyway doctors should get parent's signature to do it

In my European country we got tuberculosis and hepatitis jabs in high school. There wasn't any permission or signature involved, we were just taken the whole class to the nurse's office, got the jab and that's it.
I thought that this is a very unusual step that Austria's taking, so I did some reading...

Germany, Austria and Switzerland don't have any mandatory vaccines for the general population. Only in Germany is vaccination against measles mandatory for children and caregivers (daycare, etc).

Austria in particular had no mandatory vaccination at all until they announced it now.

France and Italy seem to have many mandatory vaccinations for children.
Finding something that doesn't reflect well on people is so easy. Describe your own lifestyle and I can make you look like a shit. I don't want to do that, I think onesided negativity is a best avoided, but it's simple, oh how simple it is.
Sinatra is a great framework for fastly developing REST APIs. It benefits from almost the whole Rubygem possibilities while being fast to develop.

Middlemanapp is a great static website generator written in Ruby and easy to extend that I used many times to generate simple generated websites.

Jekyll is a great static blog generator.
How to make a macOS menu bar app
No one is going to be given the vaccine by force. Like you said, as an adult you can choose not to have it, you will just lose access to a lot of things, just like an unvaccinated child isn't accepted into kindergarden. If you don't want to have it then fine, stay locked up at home forever, that's your choice.
Oh, so because of (some) dumb users let's punish everyone by making them subject to a monopoly lock-in. Great reasoning.

Users have very effective recurse against poorly behaving apps: uninstall. You just need to inform users that the app X does use much battery. Then it should be up to the users to decide if to allow this behaviour or uninstall this app. Maybe an explicit permission to run in the background. That's it.

Solution that you like is also very beneficial for OS vendor, how convenient.
We have free universal healthcare in Austria. And the state carries responsibility for problems as long as a vaccine has been officially approved. It was possible to get COVID vaccine before approval (off label it's called) but you assume responsibility.

Also mandatory vaccines are not new either

freedom day ... argh $$#@&$
I'm a one-man IT show for a few small- and mid-sized companies, and I had to manage an incident a few years ago where one of the companies was taken down for several days under a massive dDOS attack. This was accompanied by a ransom email to me. I disclosed the email to the company owner and he asked if we should pay it. I told him I wouldn't pay it if he ordered me to. I was sleeping on the floor for an hour at a time - the host handling the dedicated server basically said we had to go and threatened me that I would have to pay for their downtime, and the attack was large enough to shut down their connection to the transatlantic cable, so I had to fight around it for 48 hours while trying to quietly exfiltrate our data off the server through another one I had in Europe at the moments I could connect. I was contacted by the FBI and ultimately they found the assailants and one of the people behind it went to prison for a couple years; I got a judgment against him for my cost mitigating the attack (although it's symbolic, obviously. I'm sure I won't see a dime of it). He was just some schmuck in Florida.

TL;DR - if everyone refused to pay there would be no profit in it. And if everyone had to have IT staff who were competent, or worry about being fined for malfeasance, there would be no question of paying a third party to deal with something quietly. It's right and proper that authorities get involved. Even if they do find it's some troll farm in Russia, they can sanction and block in a way that small companies cannot. It's one of those situations where you stand together or die separately.
Once I unsubscribed from Audible I started receiving email every 1-2 weeks with 60-70% discounts for couple of months. So I’ve been subscribing/unsubscribing to keep getting nice discount
