We should all be for greater efficiency of government. But ... is WA actually less efficient than other states? If so, how and why?

In terms of overall tax burden, until now WA has been pretty middle of the road (ranked 24 and 27 out 50 in two estimates). https://taxfoundation.org/publications/state-local-tax-burde...

I doubt this was her practiced schedule. More of like an sketch for her envisioned perfect day. Do you really believe people practice such schedules?
Are you certain you have not rediscovered a previously known algorithm? a common variant of Dijkstra's algorithm finds the shortest path from one node to all other nodes in a graph, using in O((V + E)log v) time and O(V + E) space (and can actually get a better big O with a Fibonacci heap, but no one uses this in practice).

So from reading your post, I'm not entirely sure what sets your algorithm apart!

If you do want to make claims about your algorithm being state of the art, I recommend trying to come up with a formal proof for the run time, and type up a manuscript in latex presenting the algorithm, a proof of correctness / runtime, and placing the algorithm into the existing literature. You can then try to send that to academics to read over, or submit to a conference as a solo author, if the work is good I don't think they will ignore you.
this is how it works in the US too, if you’re in public I can take a photo of you and use it in a lot of ways, I could print a copy and hand it to everyone on earth, but if it’s commercial you will need a signed release form
Because her defense is "her boyfriend made her do it" and this is allegedly a schedule he made for her.
Yes I agree, whatever you think of her, this (sharing here notes on social media) is basically just mean gossip.

Oh I would love some more deep dives or presentations by James Hamilton into various aspects of AWS. They combine the high level overview and the deep technical details in a very informative and entertaining way.
You are wrong. It protects passwords as speech, as they are testimonial, per many court rulings. It does not protect biometrics based on law that basically says the police can force you to give up your fingerprints for their records, so they can sure as fuck force your finger onto a reader.

The large serving of olive oil is small relative to the bulk of the steamed vegetables.

It's typical for ketogenic dieters to use vegetables as a carrier for olive oil, and for a large fraction of the day's calories to come from that oil.

Regulated industries of any kind (whether legally or pragmatically), latency, security (not necessarily for what runs on Outposts, but for what Outposts connect to), etc. etc. while treating it essentially as another amazon region.

In the early days of the "cloud" it was common to talk about "shifting loads to cloud" as temporary scaling measure, where cloud services were not default and instead an extension of your on-premise setup - this is the opposite way around, extending cloud to on-premise.
Without any of the finesse.
The prosecutor had to prove beyond reasonable doubt that it was NOT self defense. Good luck proving a subjective negative. After I learned that particular I just awaited the official aquittal.
Thank you. I never knew the source of the ridiculous theory that the internet sprang from spying attempts on the Vietnamese. I am always looking for keywords to filter conspiracy weirdos. Yasha Levine added

That’s what I see with HFR too, but the kids do not agree. And reality is high frame rate. These facts prove that we somehow learned to prefer 24 fps, even though it’s objectively less good than higher frame rates. There is definitely something strange going on perceptually that you and I have a hard time un-seeing.

A cover up of some sort really did happen if you believe the hot mic rant of Amy Robach that was recorded by ABC News: https://www.the-sun.com/news/27431/abc-news-host-amy-robach-...

Even now, that leak is mostly reported by unreliable sources like The Sun above and Project Veritas rather than more established news organizations despite the video's apparent legitimacy.
Then why weren't the charges dropped? Is it acceptable to put someone through a trial when the outcome is a predictable aquittal?
They can also query these messages to see if there is something on the dealers they get paid from and then warn them if something comes up. It works both ways, no?
The burden has been middle of the road thanks to the income tax ban. It’s also resulted in the state pursuing taxes even worse than income tax, in terms of regressivity and who they target.

For the SSE example, Safari only streams HTML, not plain text AFAIK. It should work if you use the endpoint with the `EventStream` constructor.

As for the WS example: it is a WebSocket endpoint, so you must connect to it using `new WebSocket` :-)
The best advice I have to give to get people to switch is showing that you have cross platform capabilities. Essentially everyone can have the features of iMessage/WA: full resolution images and videos, responding to messages with emojis (WA doesn't have), stickers (unfortunately you have to grab from signalstickers.com instead of in-app), voice and video calling, etc. If Apple didn't have such a closed ecosystem then I think it would be harder to get people to switch. In this respect, Signal is more feature rich than anything else (except Telegram, but Telegram doesn't have the same security and isn't trustless).

I think the common mistake is trying to convince people with the security. Use that as a bonus, not the main feature. You're talking geek to people that don't speak geek (convince geeks with these arguments, not mom and dad). I also suggest strong arming people and using momentum (if 4 people in a group of 5 have Signal, switch the group to Signal. Or respond to WA messages on Signal).
Seems rather tightly-wrapped. But if it works for her.

BBS software was very regional and scene specific. A lot of Midwestern Warez guys loved Renegade, and Cott Lang hated that! The really cool warez guys ran PC Board (for some reason), or a Fourm hack which looked cool but seemed buggy.

I think Renegade's non-warez scene competition was TAG, WWIV, Wildcat and (of course) Telegard. I kind of liked all of them for various reasons!
You're not going to find people doing unpaid work reviewing the best exercise bikes, or other expensive items. Very few people can afford to go out and buy 10-20 exercise bikes, and fewer still people can afford to do so every time a new bike is released. And yet fewer will then go and write up their experiences and keep their list updated over time.

For stuff like this you will only get spec comparison articles or comparison articles from big sites who get gear sent to them or make so much from affiliate sales that they can afford to rent/buy gear. It's simply not likely for anyone to put so much time and effort into it for a passion project.

However, where you can still find independent reviews is if you look up a specific item. Granted, they may still put an affiliate link in, because why not try to make some money when you've put in the work of making a good review, but at least they'll have bought the gear themselves and are using it because it's what they like best, and can speak to the pros and cons of the equipment in detail.

So the big lists are still useful - check out a couple "top 10" lists, read the specs, and get an idea of what's suitable. Then look up the promising candidates individually, and find more "real" content about them. I find this usually gives results which are better than just reading Reddit discussions, at least for higher value items.
The issue with all AWS storage is that storage bandwidth eats your network bandwidth. And there are not-great documented multi-level throttles and bottlenecks involved in that.

Especially in the "Up to X per second" networking instances, which is basically all of them except the huge ones.

The activation of throttles is NOT well exposed in metrics, nor is bursting amount or detecting if bursting is occurring.

It is all somewhat shady IMO, with AWS trying to hide problems with their platform, or hide that you're getting charged in lots of sneaky ways.
You may also know about Ninja Scroll (1993). It's a classic. The same director made the lesser known Demon City Shinjuku (1988) and Wicked City (1987). Not sure about those two older works, but Ninja Scroll can be streamed from Hulu.

I can't define it, but I feel like there is a link between the animators who worked on Ninja Scroll and the ones who worked on Puppet Princess (2000). Puppet Princess is short but looks like a lot of work went into it for it's time. If you want to see that, the only streaming service I could find with it was VUDU.

Also, a big one that works for me (especially iPhone users, which are the hardest to convert): "You can send full quality images and videos to Android users." The fact that Apple shots themselves in the foot is an advantage to Signal.

It kinda depends on if images and videos are encrypted separately and only indexed at first.

How much data there are on your chats? 1 megabyte is around one thick book in plaintext.

AES-CBC as example method decrypts more than 2 gigabits per second with hardware opcodes (2012 processor), for example if we look this data https://www.bearssl.org/speed.html

It is impossible to say based on delay when searching plaintext on this level whether there is encryption.
It depends on the way you are using/placing/storing/holding the phone. If you're putting the phone in a pocket, it's best to have the port on the top. If you're holding the phone in your hand, it's best to have the port on the bottom.

The Highlander Law doesn't apply here.
Looking at these logs is it reasonable to comment that up until 2005 if you were offered a lift by Jeffrey you wouldn't think "oh, but he's a sexual predator !" ? That up until that date the only public information on poor behaviour by him was the sort of financial sleaze that people in his position usually have in their backgrounds ?

I'm only going off a quick Wikipedia read but if it's true I think it's worth saying because there are a number of "famous" people who got their rides in the jet well before that date.

Not wishing to make a case for sleaze balls but interested in truth as well.
Step one prey. Very holy of her. Step two enter the world and lie to investors possibly sending some people into financial ruin destroying their lives. The lack of morals but claiming to prey to god just blows me away. Better ask for forgiveness.

I don't know why you're being downvoted. For a start, if it was a third party that had the passcode and refused to divulge it they can be held in jail until they release it, e.g. if your wife knows it. (There are many cases where people have been sentenced to years or decades in prison for not testifying)

If it is you not divulging your own passcode, then legally the judge can't give you contempt, but in reality they could give you contempt until you fought it through the appellate court. Contempt is a special type of thing - certainly here in Illinois you have no right to a jury trial on contempt charges. You're just fucked.
There's two main reasons why Kafka as of today isn't a good fit for implementing event sourcing:

- Lacking support for key-based look-ups: when trying to materialize the current state of an entity, you cannot query Kafka efficiently for just those events (a partition-per-entity strategy doesn't scale due to the partion number limitation, which may change with KRaft in the future)

- Lacking support for (optimistic) locking: you cannot make sure to reject events based on outdated state, unless you apply work-arounds like a single writer architecture

MOB is in beta and I think getting moved (if not already) to main soon. But it is non-intrusive and you won't notice it unless you look for it. People are just complaining about a feature that you have to look for. I'm not a fan of MOB and how the situation was handled, but I also think the reactions people are having are a bit over the top.
I'd be interested in knowing what drove you to Outposts in the first place -- low latency or regulatory reasons? (Or something else?)
So if I film you, say, bashing my head with a skateboard before I shoot you in defense of my life, Twitter will delete the video upon your request?
In regards to why do people find personal insights into famous (or infamous) people's lives, I would presume that is more common than not, but of course others like yourself presumably find no such interesting in what her daily schedule is or Julia Roberts. As to why it would be relevant, assuming she wrote it, certainly seems to show her a certain type of person that would plan their day down to the minute and put things such as change (clothes), shower, and pretty much everything other than put one foot and from of the other. So if she were to portray herself as someone whose not big into details and thus has no idea what was going on at her company or the details, evidence like this would probably draw a picture of someone who is very much into the details and or other character qualities.
As I mentioned, the first shooting and killing of Rosenbaum wasn't a clear justified self defense based on the video, so it justified the trail. Also the politics around the case played a role.
An impossible task. One I also am tempted to try and do.

“For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace. What gain has the worker from his toil? I have seen the business that God has given to the children of man to be busy with. He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. I perceived that there is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to do good as long as they live; also that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil—this is God's gift to man. I perceived that whatever God does endures forever; nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it. God has done it, so that people fear before him. That which is, already has been; that which is to be, already has been; and God seeks what has been driven away. Moreover, I saw under the sun that in the place of justice, even there was wickedness, and in the place of righteousness, even there was wickedness. I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked, for there is a time for every matter and for every work. I said in my heart with regard to the children of man that God is testing them that they may see that they themselves are but beasts. For what happens to the children of man and what happens to the beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other. They all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts, for all is vanity. All go to one place. All are from the dust, and to dust all return. Who knows whether the spirit of man goes upward and the spirit of the beast goes down into the earth? So I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his work, for that is his lot. Who can bring him to see what will be after him?”

This was just her getting over jet lag schedule during one business trip.
If I understand correctly, there were:

- issues with tail latency and cost when using gp2

- issues with generally bad performance when using st1

- issues with reliability when using gp3 (as an early adopter of aws "GA" product)

- issues with insufficient disk space when using local-attached nvme

- issues with confluent licensing cost

And tiered storage solves all of that.

The thing is, I have not seen kafka struggling with disk performance when running on gcp pd-ssd. Perhaps even pd-balanced would do the trick, as indicated by rmb938's comment. I am glad that you guys finally landed on a boring solution now, but things have been rather boring for years with another cloud provider. Perhaps there is no material impact from the high tail latency when using gp2, and you just needed a better contract negotiator? Surely the tail latency would be worse now whenever data need to be pulled from S3?
Also, the people at the trials love to waste time. I remember at the Floyd trial there was something to the tune of:

"You have a mobile device, right?"

"And a mobile device can record images, right?"

"And you were present at the scene, right?"

"And while you were present at the scene you had a mobile device, right?"

"And your mobile device is capable of recording images, right?"

"And you used your mobile device to record images, right?"

Like, fuck, you could have compressed that all into 1 question. I guess lawyers get paid $900 an hour so maybe that's part of it.
I take issue only with the characterisation of colonial America as authoritarian. It was democratic and the King and his Governors had limited power. The issues leading to revolution arose mostly from the lack of representation in Parliament and a series of unforunate blunders in handling greivences on the part of HM Government.

Signal isn't funded by the military, by OTF/BBG, or any branch of the USG government. People who claim otherwise are confused (deeply) about a program OTF ran that sponsored third-party security reviews and development projects (summer-of-code style), none of which was mediated through OTF --- it was just a bucket of money.

You should be extremely skeptical about people who bring OTF/BBG up in these discussions. I have complicated feelings about Tor stemming mostly from culture and effectiveness concerns and would push back on claims that it's co-opted by the Navy or corporate interests, but at least I can see a clear (if silly) line connecting Tor to these supposed conflicts of interest.
This is garden variety type A OCD CEO stuff. Your typical CEO, male or female or whatever, is going to not be that different than this.

Now, people are calling this also ironic given the charlatan nature of her career and the naked narcissism it hides.

Back to the point about this being typical executive crap: what do you think your typical exec or exec wannabe thinks? It's all about the (narcissistic) goals, and anything else is just a bridge or a barrier to them. Basically every CEO is a showman charlatan and a narcissist.

It makes all the Elon hate so funny. People, he's actually par far on the honest/good side of the entire CEO psycho personality statistical distribution. Zuck is probably dead middle. Now try parsing the mindset of the petroleum execs, tobacco execs, mining companies, etc.

Capitalism is a genetic engineering framework for producing more and more refined social psychopaths. It doesn't reward "good". It doesn't reward "sharing".
Myth I & II were unbelievably smooth & slick games at the time. I had a crudie Voodoo Banshee or Rush (i forget which, but significant difference yes) card at the time, and this was such a smooth slick gorgeous game world. It felt radically alive like few other games did. Warzone 2100 comes to mind as another high performing game of the era.
Sure, but the tweet specifically said "consistent access to the same mobile number", not to the same device.

The engine should automatically detect that I want to be booted to a third-party site? Err, no. That would be infuriating behaviour if it happened without explicit instruction.

Neo: “Are you trying to tell me that I can alter DNA?”

Morpheus: “no Neo, I’m trying to tell you that when you’re ready you won’t have to”

Altering the DNA is unnecessary if you can control the expression of genes or add additional genetic material later in the DNA->RNA->protein process. mRNA vaccines are already a great example of this. Another example might be the cystic fibrosis therapy Trikafta.
Please do keep in mind that we're talking about toys here. You don't have to be among "the wealthiest members of society" to be able to afford the market-clearing price.
I'd love Zcash (forced private transactions). But honestly I'd also like if we could use different currencies. My dream was that you could send cash and they would just use MOB as the intermediate transaction (so your bank would just see a transaction to/from Signal and not who you were sending/receiving to/from). But that also has technical challenges and legal issues so I understand why not. I think a multi-currency wallet is the next best option imo.
Doesn’t basic MPEG preserve edges automatically, as long as the motion interp doesn’t cross too many frames? I thought the idea with most motion block compression schemes was to essentially have tiled flow vectors that slide the source block a little while preserving the internal structure?
Alzheimer's research and drug development is littered with decades of ideas that were implied, but didn't bear out.
