The solution to that is having a well defined and understood mechanism to verify the police departments that the departments can easily be referred to (or look up themselves in advance) to fall back on.

For example, in the U.S. E911 services use a database of coordinates and other info to determine what police department to route you to based on location. Requiring an EDR to come from an agency in this database (or larger state and federal institutions that are well known) could solve a lot of this problem. Having a way to look up police badges might help as well, and is also just a good idea.

An EDR is essentially the same as some person on the street stopping you and saying they are police and need to commandeer your vehicle. It makes sense to verify that in some way (such as a badge), as otherwise even if you think a crime has just been committed, you could just as easily be giving a vehicle to the criminal as the police.
I've been doing software engineering for about 16 years now and 10 of them have been specializing in design, UI and UX. Modern UI principles are good. A stark improvement from the days when hapless engineers were in charge of design because nobody considered it. There are always bad trends and bad apples, but they stick out a lot more now. Mostly because they're contrasted so sharply with good design everywhere.
This is really cool, it would be awesome to make a graph of the blogosphere like this.

I'd love to chat about this more, will send you an email.
Because I am more productive when working from home, I can easily get the job done in half the time. This means that my manager is happy, and I sign off after lunch and have the rest of the day for myself. That's also why I always try to schedule meetings no later than 1pm.
For that to be somewhat true, I can see at least two prerequisites: 1) the function must be pure(no side-effects); 2) predicting well is not enough, GPT must predict perfectly a hundred percent of the time.

Still, technically you're not executing the code.
I live in a remarkably shitty, crime ridden city and having locks changed is a standard part of rental contracts. It’s so standard that every August, our local papers’ “student guides” suggest that new renters ask about having locks changed.

Knowing what I know now, I’d actually leave a city if I saw that term in a contract.

PR from my teammate Trevor is was just posted which should hopefully fix the issue you linked:

Mandatory vacations especially, since most of these things are done by people in controller and similar corp finance rules. It's rather strange that an IT person could keep it going for so long - you'd think someone in the aforementioned roles would catch it way sooner?

Only 900 blogs are currently indexed, and they're mostly tech, business or politics, so I wouldn't be surprised if none of them have written about the will smith situation.

You can in every place I have seen. You are just up for any costs involved in getting a new tenant. In the current market that's close to nothing since someone else will be in the week you move out.
Please go have another look at the definition of "Weasel Words"

Intentionally ambiguous or misleading. Heavy emphasis on the intentionally misleading. When you accuse someone of using weasel words you are accusing them of intent to mislead. You aren't calling them a small furry mammal. You are calling them someone who is, in other words, basically telling lies. That is a smear every damn day of the week. "Weasel" being a word used to describe someone untrustworthy hence "Weasel words." Calling mere ambiguity "weasel words" is unambiguously incorrect usage of that term.

My comment was not intending to mislead. I don't believe it is in any way misleading. How you can think that I'm trying to mislead you is not obvious to me at all. This is not cross-examination under oath. This is not a politician's response as to whether their hand was in the till and the photograph of the nude holding the S&M gear was themselves and they were not in their place of worship at that time. I have stated my view. I have heard the argument. Implicitly by phrasing it like that I have not endorsed it but find it has some merit based on my limited knowledge about it. As I have now spelled out in full a few times.

If you think you or anybody has been misled here, I can't really help you, I did not do that nor did I contribute to it. If you think your post is totally unambiguous and are going to ignore the "intentionally misleading" aspect of "weasel words" I also can't help you.

Just don't deliberately smear people speaking to their intentions when you don't know what those intentions are and are totally, utterly and 100% wrong about them. Seems pretty unambiguous to me, I guess that's why its the rule around here. dang does get cross when you get personal. Like accusing people incorrectly of using weasel words, speaking to their intentions with zero evidence, and making them cross about it, just like I am.

It remains a smear and I continue to call it what it plainly is. Maybe they didn't mean it?
Yes, because people in business management are known for their great objectivity, integrity and critical thinking prowess.
Insider trading isn’t the only potential motive for an action like that. A competitor could pay a mole to help them get ahead by taking down the competition, for example. I’m skeptical that insider trading law plays a significant role in preventing schemes like this from occurring. The entity with the strongest incentive to prevent a company from being sabotaged is the company itself. Insiders can complain to regulators or prosecutors if they think something like this is happening, and that’s pretty much the only way they’d find out.
I agree in an egalitarian sense.

The thing is mostly those people not working are not productive people generally.

Whether it's through lack of relevant skills, or lack of volition and opportunity, or drugs, or inter-generational welfare, or whatever.

The reality is some people take and take and don't create. It's cheaper to pay someone capable and motivated a programming salary than try to get those people to be productive, otherwise human resource markets would have used those people already.
It depends. Almost all whistleblower laws are statutory and vary by jurisdiction and subject. Therefore, it just depends on how the statute is phrased - and almost never did the legislature even consider this (or other questions like “What if the whistleblower was wrong?”) So, the results tend to vary considerably.
Chip and pin is distinct from chip. I have ~5 credit cards. At least 4 of them support tap to pay.

Not the author, but you can hack on it - you just have to install Rust!

Another editor worth mentioning here is Micro (https://micro-editor.github.io/), written in Go, which is also a TUI editor, is hackable not only because open source but also in the sense you mentioned (with plugins written in Lua), and (exceptionally for a TUI editor) it has the "usual" default keybindings that all of us non-Vim and non-Emacs diehards are accustomed to (Ctrl+S for save, Ctrl+F for find etc. etc.).

Sounds like you should here to China, where the CCP controls all the money and every action is logged and checked by the CCP. Wanna play games? You need that cleared by the CCP first and you are only allowed a quota. All your problems are solved over there. As for me in HK, its time to get out.

One time I had a single 1099 form, and I screwed it up badly enough that it took months to resolve, and dozens of hours on my part. Someone who understood the process probably could have sorted it out in minutes.
Honestly this all sounds very old fart “they don’t build them like they used to” and “back in my day”. That isn’t to say I disagree with the sentiment entirely. But:

A hidden button doesn’t clutter up what the user interacts with so long as the user knows how to find the button. I like clever interfaces after I figure them out. I don’t like them before because they make me feel stupid. But as soon as they make me feel smart after I figure them out, I suddenly enjoy them so long as they meet the second goal: make me productive. Take Snapchat for example. It has a really clever UX where you tap on your face and it will bring up filters. I honestly don’t know if there is a dedicated button for this somewhere. I certainly felt dumb right up to the point where someone showed this feature to me and and then it felt very neat.

So maybe when the pendulum swings from clutter-free to discoverable again we could find some compromise between 1000 buttons on the screen that all do something and no visible buttons and figure out clever AND discoverable interfaces.

And before yet another startup with their idea for a UI walk through GUI pops up, no those things aren’t the answer. They suck and I would prefer they didn’t exist. If your UI needs it, you designed a bad UI.
This is because we are still in beta and simply do not have local search developed yet. Work in progress. Glad you are comparing a year old startup to a 20 year old, $2T company - keep us honest!

> If you can't justify your vote, then maybe you shouldn't be voting.

Sorry, wrong in every possible sense of the word. The only true way for an individual to be free from the consequence of placing their vote is for voting to be anonymous.

Any argument that a voter must face direct repercussions for their vote makes voting pointless.

> Anonymous voting should be enjoyed by the masses, never the ones representing them.

Well, since the debian voters are not, as far as a I know, elected by voters themselves, they are not representing anyone.

Plus they themselves have calculated that you're due a refund that will cover that cost already at this point, and they're going to directly pull their fees out of it... while not 100%, it's got to be pretty near the bottom in terms of risk. Especially if they still wait to pay you the balance until the refund is actually paid by the Treasury.
Some of that extra $100k should probably go to the company, but sales is maybe not the best example because salespeople are quite often paid on a base+commission basis and would easily get a fixed percentage of all of their sales for the year. It seems high for sr engineers to make $500k/yr but it should be noted that senior sales people can also make $500k/yr if they're doing well!

> The sole reason while your research generates millions of dollars of year of saving is because it would be applied at Google scale. So your work times google scale = $10M/year.

"Google scale" wouldn't exist without the workers that make it possible. Seems to me like they can get more of that value they enable than they currently do.

If you think anyone on this thread is justifying Russia, you really need to improve your reading comprehension.

Who is policing your outrage level? You're the one cribbing about other people not expressing enough outrage!

Modern CPUs won't overheat unless thermal limits are specifically disabled in BIOS.

Most decent motherboards even offer the ability to set a custom, lower limit, and/or to set an action temperature where the system sleeps or shuts down.

I have my thermal throttle set at 90c, because I know my cooler won't exceed about 80c even under the heaviest load. 90c means something's wrong.
Well I think many of welcome valid sources showing that “most Americans think civil war is on the way.”

If a civil war has “already begun,” I guess I live somewhere else, because I don’t hear any gun shots. Frankly it feels a lot calmer around here than it did a year or two ago.
The economic harm spam causes is in the billions every year. Plenty of articles and reports on the negative impacts of spam. It's no small thing.
A pretty damn large portion of people claim the standard deduction. They are paid on W2. Their investments are on 1099s. The cost basis are in supplemental documents that could easily be provided to the IRS in a format they can handle.

Yeah, it doesn't work for everyone. So they could offer it to you, and you have the choice to click "ok", or to click "add additional income and deduction". If your situation is so crazy that neither of those options work, you can then do it the classic/hard mode way with an accountant.

It's how it works in plenty of countries. The US is a bit unique with one of the more complex tax code in the world, but it would still work fine for a large portion of the population.

You only know what's 'hard' after you try to change them.

> But of course you can't. And if you rewound the universe to the exact same starting conditions you still couldn't.

That's too fatalistic. You can and do, but it's indeed hard.

I reject the idea that, to express an extreme case, we are powerless automatons of our worst instincts. We have free will and choices, just not always easy ones; we can change, but sometimes it takes a lot of work. People HN believe their startup can change the world and embrace all the hard work and mountains to climb; we have a much better chance of changing ourselves.
Russians don't seem to be using them very effectively either. A lot of the destroyed ones I've seen have been bogged in fields or static in convoys. Looks like poorly trained crews and tank commanders not using the mobility of a tank properly. Plus a lot of the tanks look super poorly maintained. I used to be a Challenger 2 crewman and if I'd kept my wagon in that state, I would have got some percussive encouragement to get my s*t sorted out.

Sorbet is sooo close to being idiomatic in Ruby. With some support for duck typing and roughing out edges around memoization / ivars, I could see it being adopted into Ruby proper.
From the article it seems GPT produces the correct output when the instruction is as follows:

else:
return x + 3

How the hell it is different from the programmer writing the python function herself and where exactly is the "intelligence" in this?

There really is not. Windows Security is insanely good at detecting everything nowdays. I still use Malwarebytes Antimalware as that was really good at detecting things back in the Windows Defender days, and i still have a lifetime subscription. But i feel even that is not really necessary, you can run the free one every once if a while to find bad cookies and such.
Whether it's smart or not, with the current budget situation the Marines simply don't have the funding to prepare for both an island-hopping campaign in the Pacific theater and desert warfare in the Middle East. So they had to pick one. There's no practical way to put modern tanks ashore on those islands in quantity.
It was more nuanced than that. There were extortion attempts, abuse of trusted access, deliberate attempts to mislead and misreport.

Doesn't this system also require a central registry of outstanding debt per individual? Otherwise if the bank ratio calculations say they're comfortable lending you $1000, what prevents you from going to 100 banks and getting 100x that amount (which, presumedly, would be beyond each individual bank's risk tolerance)?
I once had a router that would get slower and slower. Rebooting it brought it back to life. I had a timer power strip, and set it to power off at 2am for 15 minutes every night. It worked beautifully.

I actually have no idea what it's really searching for. Only one of the first ten results contains my query. Compare to HN's search which highlights the matched words so it's at least clear when it's going off-script.

My understanding is that the early days of blogging were mostly people sharing personal things, and now that has moved to social media.

A lot of the online writing happening now is essays on some topic, or people trying to share notes on things they learn. And I think this type of writing is more conducive to a project like this.
Interesting, I have 3 edgerouters and UniFi AP which have been trucking for the better part of a decade. Can you point me in the direction for sources for their EoL issues?

I am about to double down on Ubiquiti as the networking backbone and security cameras for my new house, so I have a special interest in this currently.
Selection bias. Making millions in a start-up looks unfair if you ignore all the failures where people walk away with nothing.

Regardless of his reporting at the time, Krebs has known since December when Sharp was arrested that:

- the supposed hacker was the goddamn Unifi Head of Cloud, using the access keys needed to do their job

- the initial internal investigation into the hack and ransom was being conducted by the attacker

- that the whistleblower account is a complete fabrication by the internal attacker and his reporting on a coverup are false

Ubiquiti aren't suing him for reporting on it, they're suing him for not retracting it properly once it was revealed how false it was. As per the filing:

70. Ubiquiti brings this litigation because of Krebs’s refusal to do the right thing and retract the March 30 article or the December 2, 2021 update, which continue to malign Ubiquiti’s reputation, damage its relationships with its stockholders, and disrupt its business operations.

Krebs and Corey are _way_ wrong on this.

There is plenty to be said and very valid criticisms about how Ubiquiti dropped the ball and handled the situation. The attack being an insider does not excuse them. But it invalidates much of the reporting.

Krebs was specifically and personally targetted by the attacker as a method of spreading false statements to damage the company and, by keeping the articles up, remains complicit and liable.

Seems like YC has simply become a credential for future fund-raising, like "Harvard" or something else on your resume. No sour grapes at all, full credit to pg, Jessica, and the rest for building it to be wildly successful like that, but yes founders should think hard about why they would do something like YC and if the trade-off is worth it.

While "YCXX" has always seemed like an interesting signal especially around these parts, personally my own radar is that anything post YC15 is less likely to grab my attention, because the original YC founders were less/no longer involved. Nothing wrong with the new generation of folks running it, but having followed this space since their early days, there is still a certain cachet that comes with the "OG" batches of YC, which were small and seemed more impactful, compared to the later ones.

Depends where. My mid level friend working at FB was making 300-350k when he started in _2019_. What everyone is also missing in these levels of pay are typically only obtainable at those top tier companies, and often with very specific geographic constraints centered around: Seattle, NYC, or the Bay Area.

It's impossible to automate the tax filing process unless you simplify the tax code.

And I've filed taxes in countries with simple tax codes where the government pre-fills out the forms. Guess what? You still need to go and double check everything because the information comes from your employer. I've found mistakes before. So I pretty much "do my taxes" myself to make sure what the govt sends isn't wrong.
This is total war. Anything which damages the Russian economy is justified because that reduces the funding available to the Russian military. If that means Russian civilians are harmed then that's unfortunate, but it's an acceptable outcome.

Yeah I think the bigger issue here is not highlighting the matched text, which makes it look like it's doing something totally random.

There is some typo tolerance, so it's hard to tell exactly what is matching on those pages.

I'm working on adding query operators so you can specify things like exact matching, and in general working on improving the results.

Deleting a user account is still trivial. You are describing the process of (1) taking over someone's account via a password reset, and (2) migrating all of their existing data over to a new account.

If all that you what you want to achieve is preserving their data, the correct way to do it is to simply archive their account.
It depends on what your goals are. If you want to de-platform individuals it can be effective (but it isn't guaranteed since people like Trump have remained very popular in spite of it), but these individuals are just grifters who exploit an underlying sentiment, people who are de-platformed and forgotten are just replaced by someone else. Right wing populist sentiment which feeds it all is just as prominent as it has been before the censorship.
