Apple wouldn't be able to fulfil the warrant as it doesn't collect the kind of data needed to identify users based on their historical location.

Requesting the data from Google has the advantage that it can also include iPhone users who have Google apps or apps using one or more of Google's analytics products with some kind of location access.

I use an Ortholinear keyboard and I remapped all the brackets to make more sense (to me). I also have few very common programming symbols on another layer like “:=“, “if __name__ …”, “try…except”.

I have a layer that is my “network numpad”. The right side of my board (a Levinson) in this mode is:

EF789(Del)

CD456(Macro to type 255)

AB123(Enter)

__0.:

I also have a HID device attack mode layer that has payloads for popping shells, adding accounts to windows machine, grabbing wifi passwords, etc. This one is just fun stuff from my previous life in red team InfoSec.

Some of this is overkill but it shaves a few seconds off my day and I had a lot of fun building it.
Whenever I find myself feeling like you do right now, I watch this video from Bill Hicks: "It's just a ride" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgzQuE1pR1w
These warrants should be called what they are, General Warrants. Something that was abused in our history and deemed to corrupting that they were banned in our constitution.

I do not see how strapping a set of GPS coordinates instead of a city block magically makes the warrany anything other than a General Warrant.
Thank you for pointing out that jq can create JSON! I use jq all the time for working with the AWS CLI and a big pain point has always been sending JSON. If you don't know, the AWS CLI depends on JSON arguments for quite a few common tasks, and the JSON needed can be quite lengthy.

Up until now I've been creating temp JSON files to feed the commands and I thought jo would be a great tool to make this easier. Now that I know jq can also create JSON, I'll just use that instead.
sounds kind of insane that a 2-3k$ laptop can't compile stuff and allow you to browse the web at the same time lol
Im in that boat too, but I also look at it as a choice Ive made through the years, Ive always valued being independent and having my own space over basically everything else... And Ive grown into this person, for example, Im good professionally, I skateboard, Im a bit of a nights and parties and bars and travelling person, Im heavily tattooed etc. But then with covid and time passing then the "oh shit this being all by myself and all for myself thing, I think Im over it", then its something that starts hitting you with bigger frequency etc.

So anyway, my conclusion is that yeah Im maybe a bit deep into this, but the most important thing is that I now want to chose a different thing and Ive just got to work on realizing this new objetive just as I done before. This 'Im now old and lonely' thing is though, but the hardest part of it I think is just that we end up ruminating that shit and thinking our choices have completely defined us already and we are done. And when we were younger as the thought went over us wed actually think that was the whole fun, having that youthful outlook like "oh I have all this freedom and time to do what I want with my life, how exciting!", we still have so much freedom and time to choose.

Honestly I think as we get into the mid thirties there's probably some stuff that change in our minds, how we perceive time, past, future, etc, and this anxieties start creeping up more, I guess that's part of life. Most definitely, though, being thrown around and being cornered by fear, by your own thoughts, thats not the way to live, I'm sure. To me its no wonder most of all antique philosophy/religion, if you look into it, focus exactly on that, dealing with human existential anxiety.

This got a bit long but I decided to take my social and affective life into my own hands more, and Ill be getting a dog this year too hahah

I don't think the parent meant to use "modularity" to mean "pertaining to a programming language's concept of modules", but rather something along the lines of "pertaining to the act of splitting something into self-contained, clearly delineated, interoperating pieces".
Do you drink a lot or do a lot of drugs? Should probably stop those. They eat up your time and over the long term are not (IMO) great for your brain. Programming is a brain thing, so you need to take care of it.

Anyone who wants to be really good at something is probably never as good as they want to be. Every day you have to start where you are and work to become better. If you enjoy programming (I always have), it's easier because it doesn't feel so much like work. But being good at something also make it feel less like work, so if you're not feeling the love for it now, but want to, you'll have to put in some consistent work to get up to the level you think you can or should be. But it's like any sport, musical instrument, or other challenging activity: you'll never be done honing your skills and trying to be better at it.

Everyone's on a different path. Stop comparing yourself so much to others.

Now get back to work on your self-improvement plan. It's your main job every day!

Question: why do we even need blockchain for this? Is this not basic public key cryptography?
At the risk of sounding like an ass: It doesn't matter, just get one that's the right size.

I understand why you ask, I'm very much the same way (unless you're asking just because you're curious). Some times I decide that it's time to make a change, and I start to look for thing I can buy to facilitate the process, exercise equipment, kitchen aids, clothing, essentially attempting to buy into a lifestyle. The thing that made me notice was when I started getting into minimalism, and I started to look for "minimalist things" I could buy... That sort of highlighted the absurdity of the idea.
Not sure where curiosity and motivation comes from, but as others mention, it helps to maintain good health and some social connections/friends.

I hope you regain curiosity and see and wonder about things in new ways.
Ok, I guess the repulsiveness of a clamping operation is something we learn. If one doesn't learn to fear it, it's an operation like any other.

Because their disposable income to intelligence ratio is greater than average. They're the perfect market. NFTs or similar may well become an important way to have digital uniqueness. Ten minute monkey paintings are no more valuable digitally than in the real. Just like the rest of the art market, all of the value is subjective and typically trend based.
Please make an argument.
It's easy to see familiar patterns even in "new" things, though: especially those things that typically bind social networks (primarily shared recreational experiences). There are only so many story tropes to fill books and movies with, shared exercise experiences all blend, card games, board games, etc.--you name it, and odds are that the chance one has "seen it before" increases with age.

So while something can be new, as one ages even "new" things have elements that are immediately obviously the same as one's past experiences. The older one is, the more of these elements there are. There's a diminishing return, so to speak, in experiencing new things.

I meant actually coming up with examples consisting of specific problems and their correct solutions (and maybe some counterexamples.)

Ironically, I had just replaced 'test cases' with 'tests', because I thought that the former might seem too generic, and arguably satisfiable merely by rephrasing the problem statement as a test case to be satisfied.
Has it been over hyped? Some ML created in the last 8 years is in most major products now. It has been transformative even if you don’t see it, is informing most things you use. We’re not close to AGI but I’ve never heard an actual researcher make that claim or the orgs they work for. They just consistently show for the tasks they pick they beat most baselines and in a lot of cases humans. The models just don’t generalize but with transformers we’re able to get them to perform above baselines for multiple problems and that’s the excitement. I’m not sure who has overhyped it for you but it’s delivering in line with my expectations ever since the first breakthrough in 2013/2014 that let neural nets actually work.
For most of my life, I've volunteered at one organization or another. It's been a great way to meet people and find some purpose. It doesn't even have to be some epic world-changing nonprofit. Even a one-shot like a fundraiser walk can be good. Or take classes (cultural center, library, community colleges, Meetup, etc.), even if you're not super interested in the topic.
So, all governments officially said all of those while knowing them to be untrue? That's a bold claim ( i live in France and don't recall anything of the like on any of them). Care to share some sources?

Climate Change Enters the Therapy Room
Feeling like you are taking purposeful action towards things you want is a great way to start feeling better almost immediately.

Think about things you want in the future. Who do you want to become? What material things would you like to have? What experiences do you want? Write them down, these are all goals.

Want a partner? This is a goal which you can (and should) approach intentionally.

Pick your top 3 and start working on them immediately. Like NOW. Take at least one action on all of them TODAY.
If you want activity aggregated, use the same address. Not sure what the complaint is.

Why can't they quit? That's silly.

If someone with a completely irrelevant arts degree can waltz into management or sales or other customer-facing jobs, there is nothing about having a STEM education that would stop you from doing that too, if you wanted. An aptitude for coding and automation can make you a shoe-in for a plethora of office-based jobs that traditionally have no STEM requirements.

That's where the demand for STEM comes. Parents and careers advisors push STEM because it opens additional doors.
Government/socialism and capitalism are just 2 different paths to the same tyranny.

> Before Bill James popularized sabermetrics, Davey Johnson used an IBM System/360 at team owner Jerold Hoffberger's brewery to write a FORTRAN baseball computer simulation while playing for the Baltimore Orioles in the early 1970s. He used his results in an unsuccessful attempt to promote to his manager Earl Weaver the idea that he should bat second in the lineup. He wrote IBM BASIC programs to help him manage the Tidewater Tides, and after becoming manager of the New York Mets in 1984, he arranged for a team employee to write a dBASE II application to compile and store advanced metrics on team statistics.
About ten years ago, I lived in an area where power outages were a common occurrence, sometimes lasting up to a week. Naturally, during those times, I found it necessary to own some sort of flashlight or headlamp, along with whatever batteries it took. Unfortunately, being that this was in rural America, all of the available headlamps (coleman/energizer/craft, at walmart, at lowes, at DG, etc) are of such low-quality that they basically start out being trash. As a rule, they take three AAA's, and also, as a rule, they flicker out all the time so you have to give a technical-tap every few minutes to jiggle the loose connections, and that's when they're actually working. Over the course of two years, I went through five headlamps. I had one explode on my forehead after only five minutes of use.

It made me very sad, that we as a species appeared to have forgotten how to build a simple apparatus consisting of a light-bulb, a switch, batteries and wires. So then I got a Fenix. It's machined out of a single block of aluminum and it takes 18650 cells instead of triple A's. I've used it on a regular basis for the last decade and it still works every time I need it, the whole time I need it. No more technical taps.

I have yet to find a French press without plastic components that contact the brew.
I did 2 - 2.5 hours of exercise for a brief time (around a year), years ago. You can't do it if you have children, but otherwise it can be done. I started work at 7:00 and left at 15:00. Adding transportation I'd normally be home around 18:15 in the evening. I think the key is to not have other obligations (at least not to many) and a minimum of transportation time.
You have to make sure the business logic can scale (if you want scale). If you want to be a unicorn, you have to be able to make everything 'elastic', which means adding more capacity on servers, for example. You could get cozy with your server provider(s) and make sure they can meet your needs if business really starts to take off. On the other hand, you may be comfortable with a small SaaS business that you don't want to scale up and have it generate a comfortable income for you to live on. Just get your social media and marketing strategy right and you're set.

Don't use tidyverse if you don't need to. Certainly don't start with it if you're a complete beginner. Base R goes a long way on its own.
Reading an article written in such a way as to cause needless flamewars makes me angry. The article is a borderline opinion piece. For instance:

> While some towns saw significant property damage in the wake of the Jacob Blake protests, all evidence shows the attack against the Seattle union building was ineffective and notable mostly as an affront to local police.

The writer is expressing on opinion that the attack wasn't that bad and didn't justify this kind of warrant- not that the warrant should never be used-- just not used to investigate activity related to BLM activity. There is no mention as to the legality of throwing fire bombs at buildings or comment on the justification actually used in the warrant.
Yes, but we don't have a differentiable climate model. People are working on it, but it's not there yet. See https://clima.caltech.edu/ and https://dj4earth.github.io/.

This is a total long shot, but what you’re describing sounds like gender dyphoria.

I’m not saying you have it. But, you should be on the lookout for fundamental ways that you’re not being true to yourself. You may be living your life to meet the expectations of others instead of optimizing for your own happiness.
My least favorite thing so far was indices starting at 1. It seems blasphemous, in a way.

On a more serious note, I agree that R being too charitable in interpreting things (seemingly without warning) seems to be a problem. You'll have to do some debugging to make sure it actually does what you intended it to do. I've only dabbled in it a bit though.
You take it incorrectly.

The incidence rate ratios of COVID-19 are impacted by vaccination status.

Published January 28, 2022:

[0] https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7105e1.htm

> All incidence and hospitalization rate ratios exceeded 1, regardless of predominant variant, indicating that the risks were consistently highest for unvaccinated persons and that COVID-19 vaccines were protective against SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19–associated hospitalization among fully vaccinated persons, and most protective among those with a booster.

Published 2/2/2022

[1] https://www.doh.wa.gov/Portals/1/Documents/1600/coronavirus/...

This one shows a nice breakdown of the incidence rate ratio among age groups and similar.

------------

What does this have to do with community transmission?

[1] If you aren't infected, you aren't spreading the disease

[2] A lower transmission rate equates to lower community spread all else equal (as someone identified earlier, Jevon's paradox could come to head)

[3] The lower IRR is a lower propensity (or, if you prefer, a lower R_t) between the two groups.

-----------

This matches what I see in my regional reporting; the IRR is significantly different between the two groups. In my area (a red state in the US) behaviors are mostly back to pre-pandemic levels of behavior, so it is reasonable to conclude that the IRR in my area is representative of life following any COVID-19 protocols being relaxed.
Potentially, but that doesn't address the problem of replacing writing code with the (harder) process of reading, verifying and fixing it. However well I engineer my inputs I'll still have to review, verify and fix the outputs.

Buy a used road bike off Craigslist. Look for brands like Trek, Cannondale, Specialized. Even their vintage models (80s and 90s) still ride very smooth and can be around $150-250. This way, if your bike gets stolen or you simply don't ride enough, you're not too much out of pocket.

Open ear headphones that use what they describe as bone conduction technology really added some value to my life. It's tough to go running in normal headphones because you can't hear danger (cars, animals, people, etc) but it's a lot easier to push yourself with some good background music. This gives the best of both worlds.
Meh, some lucky bloke eventually wins the powerball too. In our lifetime. Multiple times in some cases, but definitely different winners sometimes weekly. The odds of winning the lottery are a lot higher than 1:10,000.

The universe is close to 14 Billion years old. 1:10,000 is like nothing to the universe. There are several orders of magnitude stars in the universe that you could have 1:10,000 events occur daily. You as a member of the very johnny come lately human species (in terms of the universe's age) might feel like 1:10,000 seems high.
I have four 4K screens, and it is heaven. I got spoiled early in my career by a Unix system that had a greyscale newspaper layout monitor in the early 90's. That monitor could crispy display an unfolded two page newspaper layout with space on the left and right for tool/editing interfaces. For a while, 4K monitors were landing right near US $300, so I got 4 over a period of months. Simply being able to array references around my work, with space to spare for communication and music interfaces. It is lovely to hit stride and before I know it the day is over, and a ton of work accomplished.

I do a lot of work with virtual machines at <dayjob>, and don’t have enough room on the internal ssd to hold them all. I usually swap them in and out as I work on different projects, but every once in a while I’ll boot one direct from an external usb3 HDD. I can’t believe we used to work that way. I couldn’t imagine going back. An SSD can breathe new life into a 10+ year old system easily, too.
I think I agree with this take. We barely even know how our own brains learn and solve problems. We don't know exactly what the inner workings of AGI will look like... maybe this kind of problem solving is the emergence of that, perhaps in a different way to our own, perhaps not.
I mean, it is magical, in a sense that we are not sure how and why it works.
