True, but I guess it's easy to do that with every small market.

It's pretty easy when you can mint Tethers and keep the price pegged at $1 USD no matter how many you print and use them to buy/inflate the price of bitcoin.
I have also written a python ORM, Bozen[1]. In Bozen you define a table like this:

class Book(MonDoc):
title = StrField()
yearPublished = IntField()

Is it possible to give run-time types to `title` and `yearPublished`, in a way that works with mypy and the Python typing ecosystem? If so, is there a tutorial on this, as I'd like to add the feature to my ORM.

I guess weight training is a means to an end that I want - health and fitness. It is not an end in itself, I don't enjoy it, and discovered that I cannot lift while thinking about something else.

The NDP's support was very weak but even then, my point was not about the Canadian parliament works. I'm very familiar with how our elections work, you just missed my point.

The comment I was replying to was assuming some sort of mass Canadian consensus/unity w.r.t to the situation which is obviously not the case, because as the figures you cited yourself show, trudeau doesn't have a very strong democratic mandate. I'm not saying the majority thinks this or that way, I'm saying the GP cannot assume a consensus.

Also if you are actually saying that the conservative party is just voting against because they know that it will pass, you probably missed the parliament debates of the past 2 weeks. Because they have been very very vocally opposed to what trudeau is doing. Much more so than at any other point during the pandemic.

If anyone is playing politics it's the NDP since they basically condemned trudeau while still voting in support, since they can't afford an election right now.

I don't know why you'd think that there's no opposition to such a radical measure (you are basically saying that even the CPC is not actually opposing this?!). I guess it's in line with the trend I've been seeing online of canadians ramping up the rhetoric against the protests
We know what 'trustworthy means', it's not an extant perception.

We know exactly what we're doing when we estimate trustworthiness from a particular attribute.

The particpants may or may not know some of the faces are AI, it's besides the point.

'Estimate how well a football player's career will go from a photo'. It doesn't matter if the photos are real or not - it's an understanding of which characteristics we use to estimate trustorthiness, assent knowing their actual trustworthiness.
I don't know if you heard the part about the vast majority of plants being dependent on soil fungi for the majority of their nutrients

Sure commercial crops still make it to fruit because farmers take care to add the necessary fertilizers and plant hormones to keep them going, but rest assured that this is a major driver of plant extinction as well

Plants have the smallest trophic level. Without plants, there's no insects either. There's no way you could care about insect extinction and somehow not care about this issue

I felt the parent comment was not so much talking in absolutes but rather pointing out that overly broad regulation can be a real problem. I'm generally a fan of regulation, but I can see how it can be a problem.

I, and I think you and the grandparent comment, too, agree that there is a tradeoff to be made.

I probably should have said 4qm, which I believe is more commonly used. In that case, merging let's say 4 of them into one shared room yields 12qm of space. That's enough for an apartment!

Up until ( if) I get married, I'll always be in a city.

Just easier to meet people and do stuff. I haven't used an app in years ( had a very bad experience and I don't feel safe using them ), and aside from that I love going to concerts. Much easier to do if you can ride the train to one vs having to drive 2 hours

Remote work is amazing, for me I have to filter myself very heavily at work. I don't really care for workplace socializing.

We have bars for that.

Remote work is amazing for people who have mobility issues, as well as an array of other disabilities.

What if I want to socialize on my own terms. Forcing me back into the office so you can make small talk isn't fair.

Have you considered Chicago ?

It's the perfect city I'm terms of quality public transit and affordability. I lived on the Northside and never had any problems with crime.

Met my first long term girlfriend too !

Now I'm curious to find out how it works out.

That comment was from a few years ago so the poster may be relatively distant to Tumblr nowadays and it might take a few additional people-hops (if it doesn't fall through) to get anywhere. I also wonder if old/deactivated non-public account data is held indefinitely (eg, private messages)... it probably is...

Regarding Stripe, wow, I admittedly didn't quite read the name the first time through the paragraph, and was very surprised when I actually noticed ("...that Stripe?"). I guess it makes sense; they're similar in scale and incumbance to the big-N stuffy local banks now. A good reminder that class-leading web design isn't necessarily a function of broad-spectrum competence across the board, just a very well-paid design team lol

Read Steve Jobs' biography, he took full credit. This was the "reality distortion" field that people accused Jobs of. He would walk in and tear an idea to shreds and then turn around and tell everyone that idea was his. He would do this routinely. Probably not on purpose, maybe he forgot it was someone else's idea, but he definitely did this very often.
I'll have to check it out, I used it as a kid but not in years.

All this characterizing as "lying" is so dramatic. Is there literally no possibility that he misunderstood something, or that maybe the caller-out from the ad agency is themself leaving something out? People are so quick to label and name-call when we can hardly say we really know anything about the situation for certain.
In contrast, I work fulltime, mostly remote (for now), and absolutely love what I do. Technology that I worked on will make the world a better, more sustainable place and I think that's rad.

I go out camping and jeeping with a group from work and have a network of friends outside of work too.

So it is certainly not given that remote working has to be some forlorn place. It is, as most areas of life, what you make of it.

I'm not so sure. We're a 17.5 million people country and iOS has a 40% marketshare according to figures from last January.

If we round up that's 7 million iPhones, might be some more tablets but I'd guess negligible. A max of 50 million euros in fines will definitely be a substantial amount of their App Store income.
> C and C++ are not a very thin abstraction over assembly language

We can argue the thinkness (or the thinness) of the abstraction until cows come home, but

while (*dst++ = *src++) ;

is a direct abstraction over

L1:
movb @(r0)+, @(r1)+
tstb (r0)
bne L1

(assuming «src» and «dst» are both «char *» and addresses are loaded into «r1» and «r0» registers, consequently) in the PDP-11 architecture that C was designed on and for. The instruction sequence is exactly 4x 16 bit words long. As well as

*ptr &= 1;

becoming

and #1, (r0)

and being 2x 16 bit word instruction (assuming «ptr» is an «int *» and is loaded into «r0»). Pointer arithmetic and array design in C as we know them today was highly influenced by the addressing modes existing in the PDP-11 ISA, with many C abstractions having to a direct correspondence to specific sequences of PDP-11 instructions.

C++ is much less of a hardware abstraction, specifically when it comes to the higher level language features.
This made me laugh and it also made me wonder if UI people have jokes about how annoying engineers are.
I don't believe you need consent to log, generally speaking. Sharing PII-laden logs with a third party? Sure. The line is somewhere between that, but typical server-side logging usually won't require any sort of consent. GDPR didn't make access logging illegal.
>it will report the IMEI to the operator as part of maintaining a network connection

>Compare that to the difficulty of tracking down where a commodity BLE antenna and battery pack were sold.

The ESP (or whatever BLE chipset was used) probably will have a mac address burned in, which is essentially an IMEI. You'll have a hard time getting anything from that, because the aliexpress supply chain that supplied the GSM GPS tracker keeps records and/or responds to US subpoena as well as the aliexpress supply chain that supplied the airtag clone.

>If the SIM was prepaid, the network operator will have a pretty good idea of where it was sold (by tying the SIM number to a wholesale lot number), and that would give police a narrow pool of suspects (whoever bought a prepaid SIM from that seller while the wholesale lot was on their shelves) to work from.

It was sold from a mobile phone kiosk at a mall

>what payment method is used for service

voucher purchased at the same store, both paid with cash

>If anyone bought a prepaid SIM with cash, they may have been caught on security camera doing so.

the purchase/activation of the sim occurred a month or two ago, outside of the retention range of the surveillance footage. even if the footage exists, all you'd see is a masked (thanks covid!) 5'8" white possibly hispanic male, wearing a hoodie and jeans.
Write up on that ad campaign and working with Steve Jobs on it from Rob Siltanen, creative director and managing partner at that agency at the time:

https://www.forbes.com/sites/onmarketing/2011/12/14/the-real...

He makes the case that some of the quotes from the Isaacson biography aren't true, like this one:

"Jobs, who could identify with each of those sentiments, wrote some of the lines himself, including “They push the human race forward."

Edit: Yes, I'm agreeing with you..
I found it pretty useful to do both. A quick press is esc while holding it down is ctrl. I do find caps lock useful enough to keep it around still, so hitting left shift + right shift toggles that.

I mean there will always be a next rocket ship, and it’s obviously clear that people are willing to take this bet.

However at the same time, I’d be curious why a lot of money is taking snow as being the next google as a given. My bet is because other institutional investors are taking this as a given, and the time value of capital has been distorted by low interest rates.

If this illusion pops before snow hits 10 billion in revenue it’s likely going to cost investors dearly. As of right now a plausible downside of 95% exists should the market choose to take the common valuations of 2016.
Well a lot of that is Putin related.
The story is about argument and evidence being compelling and authority not so at all.

> she felt comfortable... ...could question anyone, even Noble Laureates.

The idea that this is explained entirely by class does a disservice to people from more humble backgrounds who are capable of being confident. For example Feynmann himself has a large number of anecdotes about suddenly not caring who he was arguing with because thinking about the problem took over. Los Alamos with all the greatests physcists after Newton present, for example.

Putting class at the centre of everything really isn't vastly better than pretending it has no relevance and does not exist. The thing that should interest us more is where are the modest background geniuses coming from now? Is class distinction getting more important and becoming a stronger barrier now than in the 30s and 40s or from this story the 70s. US tuition fees and student debt would suggest it is worth looking at.

"Data loss occurred with a Korean and US brand, but it will turn into a whole "thing" if I name them so please forgive me."

This does a disservice to those who might be running drives from those vendors with an expectation that they don't lose data post-flush.

That said, this narrows one of the data losers down to Hynix. Curious about the other one, considering how many US-based SSD vendors there are.
I don't know if a legal angle is the most helpful, but we probably need a Kyle Kingsbury type to step into this space and shame vendors who make inaccurate claims.

Put the usual NVMe drive in an external enclosure which is what the OP did.
A flush command only guarantees, upon completion, that all writes COMPLETED prior to submission of the flush are non-volatile. Not all previously sent writes. NVMe base specification 2.0b section 7.1.

That's a very important distinction. You can't assume just because a write completed before the flush that it's actually durable. Only if it completed before you sent the flush.

I'm not very confident that software is actually getting this right all that often, although it probably is in this fsync test.
Okay, suppose the packaging looks like:

MZ-V8P6T0B/AM

No fine prints. The first line is the same font size as the second line. You think that's going to help the average joe figure whether it's been component swapped or not? Oh, by the way, "MZ-V8P6T0B/AM" isn't the model number from the last comment. I swapped one digit. Did you catch that? If you were already on the lookout for this sort of stuff, you'd be already be checking the fine print at the back. This at best saves you 3 seconds of time. It also does nothing for the "randomly changing model numbers for trivial changes" problem mentioned earlier. In short, the proposed legislation would save 1% of enthusiasts 3 seconds when making a purchase.

English is not my native language, yet I didn't realize how peculiar it is until I saw this video below ("What if English Were Phoenetically Consistant"). All these years I thought my native languages were hard to learn for foreigners (French for the spelling, Serbo-Croatian for it's grammar, both of which have seemingly been designed by insane people) and English easy, didn't realize how hard it is prior to said video. I guess it is made easier by the fact it's the go-to Internet and international language so I get more exposure to it than I do to my native ones.

"you just missed my point"

No, I didn't. You pointed out the number of votes between two parties to demonstrate mandate. Only the actual numbers betray a completely different situation. You don't get to casually claim that one whole set don't matter because it makes your story work better.

"NDP since they basically condemned trudeau"

Again you're speaking like you don't know how politics work in Canada. How else do you think they will frame it? They know that if it is not passed, armies of trucks (parked just outside the city in a set of farmer fields) will return back to Ottawa, and yes they would be blamed for that, and there would be consequences. So they support it while (perhaps rightly) pointing out that it is only necessary because of bungling by Trudeau. That's what they do.

Do you think 100% of Liberals and NDP support this? I have no doubt you'll say no, that you actually think most of them are against it. Now here's a better question - do you think 100% of Conservatives and BQ are against this? The notion is simply absurd, and both parties have leaned heavily on extraordinary powers historically. There are countless examples of Conservatives in particular demanding extreme responses to, for instance, aboriginal blockades. Historically the Conservatives have been a very law and order party.

And the emergency action should never have been necessary. My province, Ontario, has a literal army of officers, heavy equipment, and penalties and measures to squash this occupation at the outset. There was a bit of negligence, territorial behaviour, and perhaps intentional blindness, that led to it becoming such a problem.

Although it is a bit rich that the #1 reason given for opposition to the motion is that the motion was successfully used to clear Ottawa. Basically that now that the problem is superficially resolved, now it isn't necessary. Not that it was never necessary.
Not quite as succinct as you put it. Falls into the category of "automated tools probably wouldn't notice it, but don't leave it open for sensitive colleagues to see" back when colocating was a thing.

I used to think like that, and would joke that my wife would get pushed under the bus if it meant saving the children. But while the children are absolutely priceless to me, my wife and I together are the foundation for them.

awesome article! I still remember switching back and forth from sun (and other unix) keyboards - ctrl and caps lock are reversed from today's standard 104.

I haven't used the caps-lock since then. Pinky just goes on the shift key TO TYPE ALL SHOUTY. I don't really know if pinky ever gets used fro letters in any case, but I think he doesn't so unless you need capital ctrl- something what's the problem?

Still it does also feel like the problem of designers that like to use the tail to wag the dog to justify yet another unnecessary change is just all too realistic.
