I find it very plausible that although most of those things happened, there was no actual conspiracy to kill JFK. Like, there might have been a lot of chit-chat in those circles against JFK and all of what he was doing, but there was no concrete conspiracy to kill him. At the same time, there is this unstable person that seeing and hearing everything that happens around him, believes he will be doing a "greater good" if he killed the president.

Then, the he was silenced mainly because of all the other stuff that he was part of.

It's akin to the time when Trump was president (or Obama for all that matters): There was a lot of chat in the internet and elsewhere about how bad he was as president, how he was damaging the country, yada yada. It would only take one crazy person in the middle of a crazy clique to really go on with it.

Other people point out ML is a use case where Go isn't suitable. And I agree.

But as someone who used to write a LOT of Python, Go has replaced it for anything service or business-logic oriented, and while I do very little data wrangling and machine learning, Julia would be my go to for that. Julia and Go are in, many ways, complementary opposites. If you need to use PyTorch/TensorFlow, okay, fine Python (I'm not going to seriously advocate for just wrapping it all in PyCall.jl unless it's just incidental usage), but Julia is a really strong language for this stuff nowadays.

Not at all the case. It was a regional outage that got Netflix to more than double our AWS spend going multi-region, so that outage netted them millions of extra dollars per year just from Netflix.
> 70,000 step program

My initial assumption was that they would compile a program, take the binary output as an image and JBIG2-compress it, as I don't really get how they would use the result of the binary operations to branch to different code. Reading the article a bit more, I think they can loop multiple times over the area, by changing w, h and line dynamically over each pass, which would give them some kind of basic computer. That part is still unclear to me, but that would indeed be a lot more impressive.

There are no details on how control flow is handed over to the program either, so it's possible that they loop multiple time over the scratchpad (1 loop = 1 clock cycle roughly), especially if the memory area is non-executable, and they have one shot at computing a jump pointer.

In any case, they can probably copy arbitrary memory addresses into the new "scratchpad" area to defeat ASLR (we'll see in part 2).

Meh, my Ryzen laptop, while not M1 level, handles performance, heat and battery just fine for my needs, considering it costs well under half the price of an equivalent M1, and, as a major necessity for me, is easier to repair/upgrade but most importantly, it runs both Windows and Linux plus all X86 binaries I could ever want natively and I have full control over it (on Linux at least), instead of the manufacturer dictating what I'm allowed to run on it.

M1s are great but they aren't the magic silver bullet that solves everyone's problems, as I have no use for benchmark topping chips that can't run the SW I use. <shrug>
Your app constantly surveils a subject and sends frequent random screen captures to a controller - no matter the activity.

In order to eliminate a few sexual behaviors you’ve created an application that has serious potential for abuse and control. A well functioning adult will simply have a burner phone and the infected phone will only be used for “approved” uses. A minor or abused adult will stop using the phone and probably be isolated as a result. Which of their friend or family will want to have even benign communication with the subject knowing this app is installed (because they will).

You’re not a victim here.

Dark matter is not merely an observation. It is a class of theories to explain that observation. Specifically, if your explanation for the underlying observation is of the form "there is some matter-like stuff with mass that is causing the observed effects through standard G.R. gravity. We haven't otherwised observed it because X", then you have a dark matter theory. Typically X involves week to non-existant interactions through other forces.

If your explanation for the observation involves saying "General Relativity is wrong", or positing the modification or addition of some other force, it may account for the observation behind dark matter; it may even be correct; but it is not a dark matter theory.

Assuming some dark matter theory is proven correct, we will probably stop calling it dark matter when it is discovered. Although we still call nuclearly bound protons and neutrons with electrically bound electrons an "atom", even though we have since disproven the hypothesis that such objects are atomic.

If the answer ends up not being a dark matter theory, we will probably just call it "gravity".
We are looking to built something in house using .NET Core, and we are looking for the first. Thanks
This tool is so neat! One thing I've learned from it is my ISP (sonic.net) seems to be doing queries to _.example.com. For instance:

$ dig @50.0.1.1 nelson.lily6.messwithdns.com a

Results in two queries being answered by the messwithdns server. One for nelson.lily6.messwithdns.com as expected, but also one for _.lily6.messwithdns.com.

Any guesses what that naked underscore query is for? Not every nameserver does it (Cloudflare, Google, Quad9, and Adguard all don't). But Sonic isn't the only one that does.

I've asked on Twitter and the best guess right now is it has something to do with RFC2782 or RFC 8552. But those are about using _ to make unique tokens that aren't likely domain names, things like _tcp or _udp. What would a naked _ mean?
Dang second thought, actually I kinda agree with you on the number of years though. Humans are strange animals that HAVE to learn from mistakes, and their OWN mistakes. Mistakes of other people rarely ring a bell loud enough.

But I do believe that for an entry level you don't need 15 years. Maybe 5 years of sysadmin or devops should be good enough.

Unfortunately, it won't happen because that would mean Apple need to ban MDM software from the App Store. Thousands of thousands of companies using MDM and it won't be a good move for Apple if they attempt to do so. Apple could do it, but they will lose profits, money talks louder than doing for the goodwill.
Love the analogy. I recently started reducing the scope of my projects and getting them in front of users as quickly as I can. For the first time ever I've actually been launching things as a result.

> In order to have a reasonably complete language that has RAII and value types, you must also have: - constructors - destructors - overloadable copy assignment operators - placement new - move semantics and rvalue references

Rust has RAII and value types, and does not have constructors, overloadable copy assignment operators, placement new, or rvalue references (though we do of course have a very similar notion to rvalue/lvalue in general, but that's not the same thing as "rvalue references" with relation to all of this). While it has move semantics, they're significantly different.

This is quite clever, but fundamentally it's only possible because of a buffer overflow. If the JBIG decoder had been written in Rust (just to cite one example of a language safer than C), this would have been impossible. Use dumb languages, pwn valuable prizes.
Fine, turn my statement around if you prefer. The reason people aren't afraid of being murdered is because being a victim of murder is rare.

But the statistic you're citing here conflicts with your earlier statement (which is the one I take issue with):

> isn't because we have super advanced defense systems but because the fear of punishment keeps people from doing it.

The "fear of punishment" deterrent is clearly doing absolutely nothing for the 40% of women who have been / will be sexually assaulted.

Fear of punishment does not work when "correct" execution of justice is so rare and arbitrary. That's my point. Police are corrupt. Prosecutors are corrupt. Therefore, there is no justice. Therefore, "fear of justice" doesn't work as a deterrent.

Even if the police were better, if all it takes is a few murdering, raping, psychopaths to do all of the damage, how could "fear of punishment" possibly work?

There is, however, fear that the bureaucracy will decide to come after you in a Kafkaesque horror show...

100% I was a massive Google VR/AR adopter. Usually I'm a big iOS fan but I switched for a while because of Google's work there. I believe strongly that AR is the next major platform but I HIGHLY doubt Google will have a place in that market. They ignored Daydream and then killed it. ARCore is terrible to work with and pretty far behind ARKit and even Unity/Unreal's AR lib's. I'll never trust Google again given how terrible they have been to AR/VR.
Australian Covid contact tracing app costs $9mn AUD but only 13 people consent
Interesting take. So if i can restate it, automating people's agency - basically their decision making or judgement - creates a "disposable" class that there is (from management perspective) almost no point in investing in their growth, meaning they have little mobility because there is no demand for a better person who has built on their experience.

Alternatively put, we've commodified human hand eye coordination and basic speech recognition and intent resolution. This view is definitely supported by the current state of the gig economy.

Edit starting here--
After reading some of the comments, especially circleit, I'll add that my original reply seems like I took a pretty shallow or literal reading of OP. I read them as mission statement of a hypothetical company.

Further I agree/disagree with OP and others in that:
1) Tech has so much to do here.
2) Tech is already doing a lot here. If OP post gets traction, and I hope it does, I hope one outcome is a nice list of examples.
2.a) I think "income inequality" as a problem statement should probably be broken down.
2.b) I know there are techy startups in the government transparency scene, for example. 2.c) Contrary to point 1) and agreeing with others, maybe not so much tech itself but in line with many within tech, something like UBI? (Political) Also concerns OP point 5.

iOS does not allow the modification or generation of new executable code (at least, it will not at this stage of an exploit). So they are likely creating a weird machine to patch various data and then redirecting control flow with the altered state by overwriting a function pointer.

> Edit: I don't mean to be too snarky, I encourage anyone to do their own research

And yet you encourage people to dive into misinformation in order to somehow magically figure out what of the provided information are outright lies or just misinformed ideas.

If you equate "Doing your research" to reading articles, opinions or even quoted declassified files then you're another victim of our current misinformation crisis.

And I honestly doubt that anyone but the most dedicated historians still actually study this assassination while crosschecking everything, reading everything indepth to make an attempt too actually figure out the context it had back then etc.

It is a lot of work to actually gain knowledge on something, however we've somehow started to consider reading documents which have at best entertainment value as doing research...
With the partial exception of health, none of these issues have much to do with tech.
To be honest not a lot of our users and administrators have actually been happy in the MS ecosystem. There are a few outliers, some licensing middlemen, a few MSPs and a couple of hardcore Excel number crunchers that use the Axapta or Dynamics connectors. But you can find those anywhere like with SAS and SPSS. A lot of users don't really care at all so that just makes it a cost and 'does it do the bare minimum'-deal for them.

A few people that really invest and enjoy a specific application does not make it great, especially when it turns our they are just doing more than they should be doing; i.e. when you have an InDesign professional that would be typesetting materials for publication but the person that writes the copy is also trying to 'typeset' the source in Word. It's great if you then feel like Word gets you cool typeset documents as a power user, but if 9999 people in a 10k company don't do that and just let the publication team do that properly in InDesign according to the media standards, it's no reason to keep it as a default available application.

A lot of the usage comes from "well, it was already there so I went and did it in that". Not because it was actually the standard, best choice or in scope of the task that was supposed to be done.

Same goes for things like notes and documentation:

- Code-level docs go in the repo (MD, RST mostly)
- Org-level docs go in the wiki (Confluence)
- Publications are delivered as copy to the publication team which then uses the DTP/typesetting thing of choice

Yet someone who would ignore that creates extra work by doing it in a different application first, then copying it around and converting it. That means that the person/process needs to be fixed, and doesn't mean we need Word as an expensive WordPad/Pages replacement.

Now, this might not apply to things like mini-orgs inside a bigger org, or very small companies and individuals. But I wasn't writing about those anyway ;-) At that level you don't really have the size and scope to make good choices anyway, and you're best off just sticking with one big vendor, not because they are the best, but because you won't be handling multi-vendor management anyway.
The charts are ok for the purpose of visualizing the performance of the protocols. At least for me, they are side-by-side with the same min and max values and is easy to compare. The purpose is clear and starting from zero adds nothing of value.

People who think the bottom line is zero don't know how to read a chart.

What maybe is missing is a table with the statistics to compare numbers with maybe a latency number.
What Is a Bitcoin Worth?
I don't think that follows. One can maximally prioritize children while also believing that all children are better served by a society that protects liberty over immediate safety. How you weigh these issues turns on how you weigh the N-th order effects. It's probably not too controversial to say that eliminating all cars would harm children more and thus children as a whole benefit more from cars than their elimination. But it would be disingenuous to characterize this calculation as caring more about economic benefit than children.
The M1 Air redefined (for me obviously) what a laptop should be. Fanless, efficient, great touchpad and display and crucially just works. I don’t know why all other laptops generally need a year (windows, more on Linux) of bios and driver updates to not suck, but it’s maddening.
Show HN: Lambda-build – Bundle, archive and upload your lambda functions to AWS
Function composition becomes a lot easier with Result/Option, because you can write functions in terms of assuming a "good" value (not nil/err or otherwise "bad") and then map over it. Or if we really wanna be fancy, flatmap/bind over it.

Foo, err requires either that all receiving functions accept (foo, err), or manually nil-checking at every stage.

Try/catch is the least composable, because deeper error types can "jump out" from any layer. Which means you have to keep wrapping catches, until you hit some base layer you can recover from. You get stack traces, but you lose type information along the way.

Sum (result) and product (foo, nil) types preserve type information. Meaning you can operate more generically over it. Meaning less code duplication.

Its not an argument and we came to the same conclusion. The case needs to focus on the lack of emergency system instead of getting thrown out unceremoniously by a judge who says "whats this got to do with cell phones"
no, because most applications don't have an online dependency for creating roles and modifying policies. what they do typically have an online dependency for is provisioning credentials from those roles, which is architected to be regionally independent.
I recall that back in the day my thought was that "Or our model of gravity is just wrong and what we're observing is correct (as in, visible matter is causing this behavior), we just don't understand how gravity works at massive scales because there are variables we aren't taking into account" but honestly it's been so long I forget all the basic info on this.

This was my personal experience as well. I discovered W2 by accident, and enjoyed it so much I pre-ordered W3. While I did have a great time, I personally didn't enjoy it as much. The various quests of varying quality clashed with each other as well as the rather weak, main plot.

You have to unbundle the two different costs:

1) Infrastructure cost. It costs a fixed amount to connect someone to the always-on grid. This needs be set.

2) Consumption cost. It costs a different amount to consume produced electricity.

The problem is that the panel owners are going to get very cranky (as you see in this article) when that happens because maintaining the grid is quite a bit more expensive than the production costs and they're going to lose their cost benefit.
