Yes, error messages in zig needs improving but that's not surprising. Rust error messages where pretty terrible back in the day.

I found zig language reference pretty good[0]. It is simple, lot of example. I would find 80% on there and had to google the rest. And as another commenter said, looking at zig source code is actually not a bad idea. The std lib is pretty clear and with comments.

My biggest beef with zig is a lack of a package manager. But apparently, it is high in the list of priority for the author so...

Yeah I did AoC a few years ago in Zig and found sticking the std path in my project so I could quickly search it was the best tool to figuring out how to do various bits and pieces.

The problem with this is you have no idea what harm the guy actually may have caused; nor what other RPis he may have set up around the company or around town. Next time he may be more careful with his username, set up the disk to be encrypted w/ a network key, &c, making future exploits more difficult to track down.
Compute module has eMMC, and they haven’t been excessively costly because of it or reportedly unreliable in the way SDs are. But either way I suspect that the Foundation design team has some issues in designing power circuits rather than that SD cards being unfit or people are throwing in cheap ones.

I don't know the legal intricacies of this, like to what extent can they sell not the content but the actual physical square piece of the book, under an NFT?

For example, a company called MSCHF sold 999 fake Warhol drawings and 1 real[0], all mixed up so no one knows which one is the real one, for 250$ each... can they do this? Is this legal? At least people were aware of it, so I doubt it's fraud.

Here's the math of it:

- they paid 8,125$ for the original;

- they sold 1000 for 250$ = 250,000$

- they profited 250,000$ - 8,125$ = 241k$

Of course this was also a mix of a PR stunt, still, if you can do PR stunts and profit... I mean... isn't this what Supreme has been doing for years?

So I don't even think the legality of it all is a issue, because has you hinted, people are deliberately rolling into this...stupidity(?).

I think all of these use similar emotional mechanisms of gambling, which if you think about it, most of the current collectibles market nowadays is gambling for everyone, kids included.

"""

If 10-year Treasury notes yield 5%, for example, and you want at least a 3% equity risk premium, then you’ll only invest in a stock if you think you can get an 8% annualized return or higher. However, if 10-year Treasury yields are 1.5%, and you still want a 3% risk premium, then you’re willing to pay a higher valuation, and thus accept a lower dividend yield and lower expected returns from stocks; even 4.5% expected annualized returns would be better than a 1.5% Treasury yield.

> It does not vaccinate against the disease. It does not vaccinate against being infected, harmed or killed by the disease

It reduces the chances of all three, and _dramatically_ reduces the chances of the last two. That's what vaccines do. Now, it's not a _great_ vaccine. There are a couple of magic bullet near-100% effective vaccines (for instance, only 3% of people with the MMR vaccine exposed to Measles will get Measles, and the smallpox vaccine is 95% effective), and there are some... less effective ones (assuming the right strain is targeted the flu vaccine is 40-60% effective at preventing infection, and reduces chances of death somewhat).

Hopefully better vaccines will become available, but for now we are where we are.

I mean, if you want to say "only things with >90% efficacy at preventing infection are vaccines"... okay, but what do you want to call all the vaccines that that excludes?

> These "vaccines" limited effects at reducing symptoms (the only remaining claim of late), do not even persist more than a week or two before beginning to wane to nothing

Eh? Where are you getting that? It does look like efficacy vs _infection_ diminishes rapidly (at least for two doses; insufficient evidence to say anything with great certainty about three doses so far), but a two-dose course from last year remains quite effective at preventing severe outcomes (though less effective than three doses).

> These are at best therapeutic drugs, not vaccines.

They're not therapeutic drugs at all; if you give the vaccine to someone who _currently has covid_ it won't help them (at least for that particular case of covid).

> That is, they are - broadly - failures.

In Ireland, we have about 95% adult vaccination. Most of our current ICU cases are unvaccinated under-65s; there are almost no vaccinated under-65s, and a small number of vaccinated over-65s (essentially all over-65s are vaccinated). I would not call this a _failure_, at all. If the ICU rate was the same in the general population as in the unvaccinated population, ICU capacity would be exhausted and people would die needlessly. Preventing that is a success.

The current events are yet another Brexit-related issue IIRC. Under EU regulations, CC fees are capped under Reg 2015/751 [1]. As a consequence of Brexit, British consumers and companies lost the protections that EU law provides and that have been not codified into British law (like the GDPR was).

The legal foundation for the EU to regulate CC fees is the goal of ensuring affordable equal access to credit/debit card payments for all consumers, and the legal authority are decades of banking regulation.

App stores are not seen as part of that regulation since their payments are not deemed to be instruments of finance, so there is no legal basis to cap their fees - but individual member states can (and do, like the Netherlands [2]) regulate app stores.

Having made a similar project (see comment above: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29965597 ) there's a (predictable? unexpected?) benefit to keeping a numerical index. It forces the ticket opener to commit as soon as possible, or risk having to re-index their tickets due to conflicts.

This means that in any multi-member project, it encourages users to first check that a similar/duplicate ticket has not already made it into the repository in the meantime, and commit their tickets and make them visible to all other users with an accompanyign commit (and any notification-hooks that this entails) as soon as possible.

Obviously you could also have a commit hook which reindexes tickets automatically, yes, but the focus here is all about simplicity and hackability first - and I think a behavioural solution is probably better than an automated one in this case anyway.

Again, you are wrong. It has nothing to do with physics. A human body is completely capable of remaining fat in the event of the cessation of eating. A person can die of starvation while fat and die in a fat body. The metabolic machinery of the human body is not static. It can choose to hang on to fat right up until you die. It can choose to use almost none of the food you eat to create energy. It can do anything no matter how illogical, including kill you. This is an illustration of the fact that the human body is a very precarious and complicated machine and the only reason people aren’t more aware of issues like this is because it is an insanely reliable machine — reliable enough to give us many delusions about certain aspects of ourselves being innate.

It is literally physically possible for it to be true that a person cannot lose weight even if they eat less due to a sudden and extreme metabolic pathology. Again, super bad physics.

*EDIT*

I missed the part about people sharing from their own personal gdrives, this will surely cause problems with broken links when they leave the company and restrict access, Google drive allows multiple users to upload files to a shared folder then edit them but I don't know if there is a seamless method to create a new file or document in a shared folder.

I think what you are asking for is a solution to your problems that something like moving over to SLACK might do.

https://youtu.be/pUZzBoAbAOs

but if you are set on using emails and Gdrive only then...

I'm pretty sure there is literally is an option to download, and if you have a PC dedicated to doing this, you can use chrome and google offline drive sync to clone a google drive to a desktop and automate the process.

Not to get too far into it but what you need to do if your plan on sticking with google is have a single system/google account share out access to folders created on it that are specific to each employee. I think you may have done this already.

Then it should be a matter of following these steps.

A test a couple of hours ago may not count for much depending on what they've been doing in the last few days as the tests don't pick up infections for 2-10 after contact, and you may be infectious before the tests pick up the disease.

It goes back at least 50 years more, to Star Trek transporters.

And the most chilling version I've seen is in Charles Stross' Glasshouse, where some soldiers fight a virus that infects the consciousness of everyone using such a transporter. They "rescue" an infected population by chopping off their heads and throwing them into a transporter hacked to remove the virus. IIRC only the heads because transporting the entire bodies would be slower and the other side is expected to reconstruct a living body anyway.

A few hundred or thousand beheaded people later, they realize that the transporter is broken and would not reconstruct anything.

RDP is far, far more advanced than X11. In addition to doing "GDI over the wire" much like X11's draw calls, RDP supports compressed bitmaps and streaming video, remote audio, remote file system, remote USB, clipboard sharing, and more recently remote GPU. (Yes, I know about GLX, it's incredibly old and hasn't been updated.)

RDP is to X as PowerShell is to bash: better than the Unix standard thing because it isn't weighed down by Unix community baggage.

> If you're a journalist or an activist dealing with governments that have a track record of targeting people like you, it should probably be part of your threat model.

But considering what we know about the NSA, at least Intel's Management Engine is likely backdoored. So any anti-USA journalist/activist has probably to worry about that too. And an even bigger threat is industrial and diplomatic espionage of non-USA companies and countries using these processors.

(Also could be extrapolated to other countries' secret agencies for potential Huawei, Russian processors, if those ever get popular, like Huawei's control over EU's telecommunications.)

I love rodents and as someone who's owned rodents (and has had problems with mice and rats in the past) I'm always shocked at how social and intelligent they are. I do think it's sad how dismissive people are about testing on rodents because they're often viewed as dirty, stupid animals because that's not true. That said, I do prefer rodent testing over testing on primates which I find horrifying in most cases.

One thing that gives me some peace is knowing how hard natural lives are for these animals. It's not like rodents have a particularly pain-free, happy life in the wild. I think a better solution than avoiding animal testing all together is just to ensure that the majority of them have good lives.
But that is what the industry is selling (even that it's obviously not legally true).

Combined with any type of compression the negligible difference is eliminated.

Here is some objective evidence[1] that woke rhetoric pisses off voters and allows people like Donald Trump and Boris Johnson to get elected:

> Blue-collar workers are especially sensitive to candidate messaging — and respond even more acutely to the differences between populist and “woke” language. Primarily manual blue-collar workers, in comparison with primarily white-collar workers, were even more drawn to candidates who stressed bread-and-butter issues, and who avoided activist rhetoric.

I am based in Britain. I'm presuming London's mayor (Sadiq Khan) and many others comparable figures are significantly more left-leaning -- both economically and socially -- than their US counterparts in these cities. Yet, I can't imagine the London Metropolitan police would not come down on this sort of thing like a ton of bricks. It's not like socialist or communist countries haven't prosecuted or penalised theft historically.

Similarly, I keep reading on Twitter that the left in the US wants to ban calculus. How is this a leftist policy? I am pretty sure Soviet Russia streamed students based on ability.

One interesting case of "locks" getting less secure is for bank bags. On one of the recent LockPickingLawyer videos he talks about how these bags are easy to cut through but that's not usually an issue because they're mainly designed to be tamper-evident.
