It isn't cutting edge anymore. Relatives of mine without computers (old ones) have asked about investing in it. Everyone knows about Bitcoin.
It's very common to not have the options available on the lot. For popular or new cars you often have to order them from the factory or do a swap with another deal that has the color and options you want.

It may be more of a problem now but it's not a new thing.
The distinction here is that this lie is so coercive that it's unethical to allow any confession or evidence following it.

What would you do if you don't have money for a lawyer, and the police say that your unassailable DNA evidence was found on a now-dead acquaintance of yours, and your options are confess to the murder and get 10 years with opportunity for parole, or fight and get life?

Even if you knew that the police can lie, know you are innocent but can't prove it, and you believe that the DNA test is real or the police are willing to fake it, you might confess b/c that's the best option.
So I'm not entirely sure what I'm supposed to be doing here? Do I have to contact other artists to ask them if I can remix their track? confused
You would basically need to appoint a guardian to manage the affairs of these people to prevent them from being scammed.
Isn't Allwinner the company that flagrantly violates the GPL? I wish they'd have gone with a different vendor instead of supporting that kind of bad behavior.
Must admit, that's good writing. I almost felt like I was on the trip myself!
From the Live Science original source:

> SpaceX's Starlink satellites alone are involved in about 1,600 close encounters between two spacecraft every week, according to Hugh Lewis, the head of the Astronautics Research Group at the University of Southampton, U.K. These encounters include situations when two spacecraft pass within a distance of 0.6 miles (1 kilometer) from each other.

> The current 1,600 close passes include those between two Starlink satellites. Excluding these encounters, Starlink satellites approach other operators’ spacecraft 500 times every week.

> Hesar said that uncertainties in the positions of satellites and pieces of debris are still considerable. In case of operational satellites, the error could be up to 330 feet (100 meters) large. When it comes to a piece of debris, the uncertainty about its exact position might be in the order of a mile or more.

The 1600 number in the title seems to be the number of times a Starlink satellite comes within 1 km of another spacecraft every week while the uncertainties for such craft "could be up to 100 meters". It seems a bit alarmist to transform that into "near-crashes" for the headlines.

> When it comes to a piece of debris, the uncertainty about its exact position might be in the order of a mile or more.

This sounds much more interesting yet no statistics are given on the number of <1 km approaches to debris which makes me think it wasn't as attention grabbing as the other number given. Also lacking is any data on how many orbit changes are done and how that impacts the information given, e.g. is Starlink doing many orbital changes just to a less than 1 km standard proposed in this review? If so why is the 1 km standard treated as such a high risk with the error ranges given, what are the actual risk percentages in these close encounters and should they have really been acted on (or acted on more)?

Overall there is a lot of call for alarm and little sharing of why the data backs it up. It's an interesting topic and concern but seemingly impossible to get solid information on instead of articles just saying we should be concerned.
Pretty neat! All previous personal OS projects didn't have such neat interface. 30 MB ram with such a great interface, kudos :)
I wonder if they are afraid of hijacking’s if they make the cargo train info public. The passenger trains don’t bother me much because they are short and quick, it’s the cargo ones that go through in rush hour
Those look rather nice, but they are 10x what you should be paying. You can get good, fresh Tellicherry peppercorns for $8 a pound on Amazon, and they are very nice. Another option is your local co-op or spice store, which, if you are lucky, should have pepper in bulk for about the same price.

In some other countries the police are allowed to use physical force during interrogations. So what is your point?

How in the world did you get to this retort from my statement?

My child is too young to go to school. If my child was school age I'd likely unenroll this semester. If that somehow were not an option I'd send with an n95. Are you satisfied?
Whoever noticed the simple lists app in place of spreadsheets, mind blowing!
Spent some time reading through the networking stack, scheduler, synchronization, and networking device driver. It was a total breath of fresh air to read code in this area that wasn't a total spaghetti of years of maintenance and feature creep. Really happy to see a project like this!
"Won't refute" is as good as "can't refute". Resorting to rude language and dismissiveness is a weak posture.
Of course. My argument was intended more of a thought exercise. Sorry about that. I should admit that I saw humour in the parent comment. But, it can be tough to tell sometimes online. Admittedly, it also depends on the reader's state of mind.
rockwool.com claims a thermal conductivity of 0.033 W/m K. Many stainless steel alloys seem to be around 16 W/m K (and mild steel is quite a bit higher). So, very roughly (and assuming all heat transfer is conductive, etc), if the fraction of the inside that’s steel is well under 0.2%, the overall thermal conductivity through the panel will be comparable to that of rock wool. Otherwise it will be higher. In any case, the thermal conductivity along the sheet (as opposed to through it) will be quite high due to the solid metal face.

One could work out the fill factor from the drawings in the OP.
its all the diseases besides Covid that masking helps. I think its great from a public health POV, despite being a bit annoying.
I think 100% irreversible purely online/digital transactions are a bit of a new problem? If you wire transferred money to a scammer's bank account it won't be easy getting it back, but if you realize your mistake soon enough you at least have a chance. For example, it's possible to to get the receiving bank to hold the money pending an investigation. With a crypto transfer there's no higher authority to appeal to. (which has pros and cons)
All of this hell has broken loose due to youtube hiding dislikes
You might want to re-read the sentence you quoted. It clearly states "on iOS".
A higher interest rate increases the cost of capital. As with other assets, a stock’s present value is the sum of its future cash flows discounted to their present value, using the weighted average cost of capital as discount factor.

Because tech stocks tend to be growth stocks, i.e. most of their value (expected cash flows) derives from their high-growth period, not their steady state (their post-high-growth life period), they are more sensitive to changes in the cost of capital and this, interest rates.

More “mature” companies, i.e. companies that have reached steady state (low growth) are companies that no longer invest as much excess capital in their business because they cannot find (enough or big enough) capital projects to generate a positive return on their invested capital.

These companies tend to instead distribute excess returns as dividends. Once a company is known as a dividend-paying company, it’s very hard for it to go back to anything else, as the composition of their shareholders now represents entities that want dividend yield. That’s where, for example, buy-backs come in handy, as they’re perceived to be temporary measures. In other words, companies that still think they may find sufficient capital projects and don’t want to become steady dividend payers tend to often embark on buy-backs instead.

In sum, more nature (low growth) companies are less sensitive to interest rates because their stock prices derive from more predictable low-growth expectations, while tech stock prices as per their discounted cash flow value tend to still be driven by high-growth period expectations.

The reason why there are very large tech companies shows that the notion of “large” has, over the past few decades, decoupled from the notion of “mature”. The latter would more aptly be characterized as “driven by low growth expectations”. This is how you end up with an entire industry (tech) that hasn’t matured yet (of course, “mature” can mean different things outside of this context, which can create confusion).
Ehhh. In this case, Microsoft restored an open source project that someone tried to sabotage. There's definitely reasons to believe that they don't truly love open source, but this isn't one of them.
Have to admit it was nice to have a ready supply of them when I was clearing my drier exhaust duct the other day...
Obsidian has a plug-in called Day Planner that sets up a very nice timeline alongside / integrated into your todo list.
Everyone will catch it. At best wearing masks will only delay that a little. Fortunately the vaccines and other therapies are pretty effective at preventing severe symptoms.

Only if you view the achievement as trying to win market share, but since Linux is FOSS there technically is no market to share with the commercially provided OSes. Market share only matters if you're trying to make money by creating the OS. Otherwise Year of Linux on the Desktop is a personal goal for the user so the usage is actually 100% when they switch over. 2021 was the year that Sally and Bob switched, 2022 will be the year Derrick, Anne and Louisa switch, etc.

This has been a constant thing for way longer than that.
A family member lost $3k to this. YouTube promoted a real looking interview with the founder of ETH, high production value, saying they will double your ETH etc.

When most of of crypto users are poor and less educated they tend to be targeted…
> Some arse once loudly informed me I was a loser for being at the movies by myself.

This is something public, though, while the parent only listed activities in private. Drinking alone in public is shunned even worse.

Not that I agree with that guy, of course. Enjoy your time at the movies alone, it's nothing to be ashamed of.
Apple and Google are the most deserving of being split up [1], but you won't see it happen. Do you know how many congresspersons likely hold Apple stock?

Meanwhile Facebook is used as a platform to criticize politicians on both sides of the aisle. They all hate it.

I saw a few of livestream scams happen real-time so let me explain what I saw. I didn't see it on YouTube but I saw it on Twitch a few times and I never saw anyone mention it before.

Short answer is it's an evolution of the Elon Musk Twitter scams where people are told to send crypto (Usually bitcoin) to an address to double it. The main difference than the traditional scams is with livestream you have an audience - the chat.

Tens of thousands of viewbots to bring the counter on the livestream high and then the chat is flooded with chat messages but fake accounts that I can see how people could think they were real. Things trying to convince you that it is safe, that it worked, and even talking with each other asking how easy it is.
It doesn't matter if the account is banned after 20 minutes or more, it's already done the damage.

First time I saw this was about ~6 months ago. It was a fake account with a similar name for a Dota streamer. They had fake footage of the game and I was pretty shocked. It had something like 10,000 viewers and after reporting the channel it was still up for a while.

Other times I've seen it with Elon Musk with footage of the Tesla plant talking to a reporter about crypto. I can see how the voices can be fakes as well and how much potential it can have when combined with the chat. These were up for less time.
Nice concept but people already hate xml
The author says Twitter cracked down on this. But every time Elon musk tweets the first reply is a Bitcoin scam. If you click on any super popular person there’s a reply for sole Bitcoin scam.

IMO it’s only got worse on Twitter, not better.

I think Paw and Sketch are better than Postman and Figma, respectively. But I see your point.

You're basically right, but at least we have much more cross-compatibility now. Not something we could say about Macs of yore. Pros and cons.
Sort of reminds me of ColdFusion
I never understand why WebSQL was replaced by IndexedDB, it was so much faster! Sure different implementations and all, Sqlite vulnerability and what not arguments! And still I see exploits every year on IndexedDB every year, the only thing that changed is it's slower!

Potential U.S. claim if oil is found.
For USDP you could look at the NY regulatory compliance of it. USDP appears to be the most regulated USD token.
cryptocurrency exchanges have TV ads and buy football stadium branding ("crypto.com arena") and are easy to access. It's not a cutting-edge thing anymore.
Most start ups run out of money before they are sued. Patent trolls tend to go after firms that have money to pay them off. As such, patent trolls are not a concern for most founders.
> no reason to hold this stuff to a lower standard than the anyone want to hold the vaccines to

There absolutely is such a reason: the standard for things that people are required to take should be way, way higher than the standard for things that people are merely allowed to take.
Yeah I typically go to live music shows alone these days! The bands I see typically play in standing-room, general admission venues.

My wife doesn't like music nearly as much as I do, and she's particularly short, so standing in a crowd of people who are much taller than her isn't a lot of fun for her.

Ideally I would like to see the show with friends, but... it's still really fun. It's 9493% better than sitting at home, that's how I look at it.
I always wanted to use it. But never found a perfect one! Recommend me please
Surgical masks are orders of magnitude worse at filtering particles and designed to protect people who are open on an operating table from surgeon sourced droplets.
If Kermit The Frog said it on an episode of Sesame Street, it would be reasonable. Maybe follow it up with "P is for Planet".
Cloth masks do little to protect you on the way in but do catch quite a lot on the way out even with side leaks. The intuition there is the tiny wet globs of fluid flying out of your mouth from breathing etc are pretty heavy and catch on the mask easily when fresh. That helps a lot. If not caught they dry out, becoming lighter and smaller, and then float in the air at infectious levels for up to a few hours. At a system level getting almost everyone wearing at least cloth masks helps slow spread down a lot.

Once you're dealing with exposure to an environment filled with the fine airborne particles you need a well-fitted N95 or better to protect yourself. Although the virus itself is tiny it's traveling in particles closer to 1 micron which N95 type filters work great for. You can still be infected through your eyes but as far as I know that's very rare in normal non-hospital settings.

So that's self-protection, but why bother? It's true that at this point most people will be exposed eventually and with three shots of the mRNA vaccines people are unlikely to end up in the hospital. Several reasons. First, slowing rate of transmission will reduce overloading the hospital system. That saves a lot of collateral damage to people with otherwise treatable problems when they get turned away due to the crowds. Second, if you are unlucky enough to get sick enough to need a hospital bed you want that to happen when there is plenty of capacity, availability of drugs, etc. Third, the treatment regimens keep improving as the medical world learns better treatments and better drugs become available. Fourth, how sick you get appears to vary with how much virus you are exposed to. So even if your PPE is not perfect you can reduce your odds of serious effects when infected. Around half of people infected experience long-term lingering symptoms and there's evidence even in kids that number is not negligible.

It's pretty clear masks are effective both at an individual protection level and as a public health measure, I'm not sure how they got turned into such a political hot topic.
Bootstrapping is better unless your start up is capital intensive.
Moisture interactions are usually a key consideration for nearly all building materials, but it doesn't seem to be considered here at all. They mentioned space a lot, but there's not a lot of water in space...

What structural component is this meant to replace? It's called a "slab" but I can't see it being used to replace a concrete slab; even if it were stainless, I recall from that 1000-year house discussion that ground contact corrodes metal quite quickly.
> (I do use a Mac at my day-job, but only because the choice is Mac or Windows, no Linux option).

This is true at my employment too but we just tell them we're installing a Linux OS and IT does not care. You may want to check if you can get a Linux option by choosing Windows hardware.
Does "anything" include the COVID vaccines?
Fair enough.

I use emacs as well, but apple touchpads are good enough that frankly it's probably faster for me to just highlight text in iterm2 with the mouse (which is what I do). In emacs I use the standard C-spc shortcuts, though.

None of my work is particularly terminal-heavy, thankfully.
How does the scam work? They restream copies of my livestreams: https://YouTube.com/RichardHeart, And put a frame around it with a send 1 coin get 2 back giveaway. It's truly sad when I receive direct messages from those who have lost their life savings. And the worst part is, usually in life, hearing about free money is an obvious warning, but in crypto, there truly is free money, and all the time. Bitcoin guys got free BCH, and if they held, BSV, and byteball, and bitcoin gold, and xlm, and xrp, and HEX. Airdrops happen all the time. So it's this weird edge case, where as stupid as send one get two back sounds, in crypto.... It's sometimes almost plausible.

so change the bankruptcy laws. that doesn't require forgiving the loans.
Sorry for going so far off topic, but I am absolutely seeing different comments. The first comment I see is,

> This giant squid does not attack the surfer. It wants to cuddle him

This is when I click your direct link.
I've seen a even more sophisticated one involving one coin. It had a very likely deep faked video of the founder who disappeared a while back trying to pump up the coin.
> you can’t socialize during them

Yeah! I feel like it doesn't matter much if I'm there with friends, or not, during the performance.

> And I don’t necessarily want to talk about them after

See, now this is the part I miss. Mostly, talking about it years later.
I just don't see what harm there is in making unregulated devices even if they're hard to interpret and less acurate.

When people say that atheism is a religion, at least the ones I know mean something like this:

First, atheism answers at least some of the same questions as religions answer, though it gives different answers and in different terms.

Second, atheism isn't provable by scientific means. Some believe it more firmly than they have evidence for.

Third, at least some atheists seem to hold their atheism in a religious way; that is, with a religious fervor and intensity. Some even seem to be "evangelists", determined to spread the "good news" of atheism.

That's what (at least some) people mean when they call atheism a religion. They don't literally mean that atheists believe in some god; they mean that people hold atheism in a religious way.
I've reported these on YouTube yet they're still being recommended to me hours later. Clearly they're incapable of moderating their own platform. What's it going to take for them to start taking this seriously?

Whoever said "Traditional financial systems are rigged with fraud! Crypto solves this" RIP

Until the days people are gullible, any amount of tech doesn't solve the problem. Even worse, most people don't understand the slightest of how crypto works and will be easily rigged in crypto world!
My 2022 New Year's Resolution is to try out complete sobriety (caffeine excluded; this effectively means alcohol and cannabis). I've never considered myself to have a 'problem' with substances like some people I have known, but I sure have spent plenty of time in my life intoxicated alone. The resolution isn't an ambitious thing because I've been going this way for a while anyway.

Over the years I've slowly come to a realization: These substances have various effects, but at the heart what they really do is make me less aware. Sometimes I guess it's a good thing. Alcohol makes me less aware of the part of me that is self-conscious in social situations, and of how others perceive me. Cannabis makes you feel more aware of experiences, but it proves to be an illusion. I guess they're really not that bad on the balance, but as I grow older and I have spent more and more time thinking about cultivating awareness - of the present moment; of my body and mind and senses; of things in life that are truly important, and which maybe even make me anxious to contemplate - I find that I simply don't enjoy intoxication as much anymore because there's something I enjoy more about awareness.

More and more I hear this nagging voice when intoxicated. It says: "I'm bored; I'm nervous; I'm scared; I'm sad; I'm worried; I'm self-conscious; I'm restless; Someday I will die. What I'm doing right now is trying to be less aware of these things. But maybe they aren't just to be ignored or avoided. Maybe they're an adaptive part of the human mind. Maybe there really is something worth being anxious about."
Is the idea to apply the honeycomb panel concept to metals which allows for the construction of larger and thicker panels than with thinner and weaker materials?

I stay away from USDT. The sooner it disappears, the better.
