This is not insult. It is malicious intent.

Weeks later someone talked to musk about it, and he replied "Bet ya signed dollar it's true".

Elon also hired private investigator to dig dirt on the diver but found nothing.

Musk also emailed BuzzFeed reporter suggesting that the diver was a child rapist. Source:

Some of my friends even said that musk was this confident, maybe musk knew something we didn't.

His excuse in court saying that "pedo guy" is just a common insult in Africa. Nobody in Africa uses this term.

The BuzzFeed email wasn't included in court because it wasn't public communication. Okay, dude, great justice system.

Please stop simping for musk. This person tried to destroy innocent lives with false pedophile accusation.

Not really when the "microsubmarine" solution was never going to work and every minute was vital to get the kids out alive. So more of a "piss off and let people who actually know what they're doing focus on the job"

And regardless of that, it is still a massive asshole move to call someone a pedophile because they told you to shut up. Those two insults couldn't be more different in severity and social implications.
so you want to take actions that force a state of regret upon the world for you having taken them?

the human condition sucks sometimes, but wow, that's pretty dark.

you could also consider, you know, actions that make your life or the lives of others better. it's likely a more rewarding endeavor.
By "enemy to be destroyed" you mean a few people mocking you after you say something stupid right? Assuming you have the thousands of followers needed get the visibility? It might be worth reflecting on the cancel culture boogeyman you are terrified of, and how much of it is in your imagination. That goes to anyone reading this too. It could help you out.

Thanks for your insight. The distinction between data science and analytics seems very fuzzy to me. Plenty of “data science” certificates and degrees teach mainly the skills that you listed as belonging to an analyst. It’s rare to expect an analyst to know about machine learning, but otherwise I haven’t seen a consistent difference in definition.
I believe 10X has customers internationally. I worked on a gig for a company in Shanghai through 10X.

In my experience US tech jobs pay more than almost anywhere else, and demand in the US exceeds supply of talent, so US-based companies offering consulting and outsourcing may not have much incentive to look for customers in the UK/EU because rates/salaries are significantly lower there. Tax and labor law issues may present problems in some cases too, I don’t know.

Well, Joey started moreutils in 2006, so it's more than half way to that original "30 years ago" threshold!

> What are the industry best practices for data deletion?

Tokenization. Exchange the data for tokens, and store the sensitive data someplace very secure separate from the main operational system. To process a delete, delete the token. Ideally this is handled via proxy, so it's a completely separate system from primary app.

Having used this method, I feel it ought to be used for every app storing sensitive data.

edit: I forgot to mention the biggest issue I have with crypto shredding (encryption per record) is that you can't correlate data between records as you can with tokens.

But on the server side it's possible for tenants to use these hardware features to run workloads that the hosts verifiably cannot modify or inspect.

Most landlords aren't even cash flow positive if you correctly account for everything - http://www.johntreed.net/positive.html

The majority of cash single-family landlords are because they're paying a mortgage on 2005 prices whilst charging 2020s rent. But to properly do the accounting you'd want to compare selling the house and buying it again vs the rents.

Buying is usually worse than renting unless you value the relative freedom to do what you want with the property and even then renters have the ability to change the house they're in (unless they're effectively stuck because of grandfathered in lower-than-market rates).

The idea that housing problems are caused by landlords is obviously false on its face, as each landlorded house already has people living in it. Speculators sitting on empty inventory and refusing to landlord, now that could be a cause.
Agreed, if by technology you meant the disseminated word, and by modern society you meant every known arrangement of homo sapiens, before & after the flood. The Greeks figured this all out a very long time ago. It's just that most people here received an engineer's education instead of an English boarding school one, so it's all news to us!
It's amazing how poorly people here frame this. I just watched the Strong Towns video on LVT and it makes a ton of sense. It would effectively lower taxes on developed properties and raise taxes on empty properties. That sounds like a good deal that a lot of landlords would support.

>You didn't make that happen basically at all but get to reap the rewards.

The landlord did make that happen by making their property available for rent to others. Rents would be even higher if they took it off the market. Don't forget who owns the land.
Most democracies have some mechanism in place to prevent majorities to change too much at one and prevent abuse of minorities. One example many share is a constitution that needs more than a majority to change.
It's not a democrat thing. Large parts of the population disagree on things. When people do things objectionable to republicans, they all try to cancel them too. Many republicans want to cancel gay people, trans people, immigrants, minorities, socialists, etc.
Don't do it unless you are going to treat keeping comments up to date the same way you treat keeping the code up to date.

I've lost count of the number of times I've seen comments that were just wrong -- they applied to the code as it was written years ago, not today.

Write good code, and it should be obvious how it works. Use comments sparingly and only when things are not obvious. Update the comments when you change the code, and make sure your code review process doesn't let outdated comments slip by.

If you can't commit to the above policies, then don't comment your code at all.
Fantastic points. I plan on attending Cupertino council meetings to voice support of development (as a new Cupertino home owner) for these reasons.

The problem with small landlords is they can't average bad tenants over a large number of units. They have one or two units, and even one just sitting empty for a few months destroys years of cash flow.

Let alone actually getting a bad tenant. It may be a low chance, but if it comes up, you can be hosed out of the entire value of the house (usually you can still sell the land, but in the absolute worst cases where the property was turned into a meth factory, you may be out more than the entire value).
Trolls would need to avoid being too overtly inflammatory, lest they get blocked by kneejerk reaction.

> A busy major international port would need to be taxed very differently than a sparsely attended beach just a mile away. This seems very difficult to get right.

you could imagine that the taxation is tied to the value of the land, which can be calculated as the rent income, minus the value of improvements upon the land (such as any buildings, which can be estimated by the cost of construction and maintenance over the useful life time, which is already a figure that is needed for depreciation purposes).

This is the reason why LVT cannot be passed onto the renter, because if you increase the rent, you would pay more taxes as the value of the land must have increased if the renter accepts this higher rent without any changes to the building.
> good commenting skills take years to master

As a newer developer, it’s nice to hear you say that. I often find that I spend more time deliberating over comment wording and variable names than I spend writing the code itself!
Bailing someone out should come with an ownership stake.

Is there any advanced book that teaches automation with some real life examples? I can automate the simple parts, but as I add things, it turns to spaghetti quickly. Lots of minor things that needed to be added, each with minor tweaks that depends on other minor things. Often end up as some tangled web of mess. I think there must be some design patterns to help with this, but I don’t know much about that, and there is only so much you can learn as an amateur coder working on personal projects.

Gitflow, and its various flavours, has been a popular alternative. Though it seems trunk-based is considered the preferred standard due to emphasis on achieving a stable main branch, simplified pipelines and faster cycle times. This requires a bit more maturity to get right if I'm not mistaken as you need good automation, test coverage and code review practices.
I’m not sure how the second part of your claim holds up if you treat your first contention (with which I agree) as a precondition. In particular, I think it wouldn’t be possible to prove mens rea, which you’d have to do if no crime ended up being perpetrated and you’re charging someone only for the alleged solicitation of an inchoate crime?

I think that sort of reasoning is rubbish, when you can speculate your way past all security boundaries on the chip

The ring boundaries of protected mode were never meant as a strong security feature against malice. The documentation of the 286, the first CPU in which they were introduced, is very clear in saying that. It's unfortunate how many assumed otherwise and built an entire industry upon that misunderstanding.

Question to those who are using both NeoVim and an IDE like VSCode/Jetbrains:

Yes, things gets harder at scale which is why he said 50 and not 5. Depending on how much infrastructure code you do inhouse you add another 50 for managing that. If you have your own datacenters add another 100 or so if you have a few around the world. If you want world class recommendation add 100 or so data scientists.

That gets us 300 tech people to run the service.

That is for engineering, those numbers are roughly what I saw at Google for these kinds of things. Then Google typically has 1 non tech person per tech person, so add in at least as many people again. Then since Googles customer support and community management is hardly world famous for being good, rather it is infamous for being bad, you probably want even more non tech people than that. But still, do you really need 8000 people for it?

While I certainly admire the effort, I’ve got to admit my shell shock from the troubled past of Java deserialization APIs and libraries as they relate to security.
Many moons ago, I wrote a prototype on Azure's 'confidential computing' VMs that demonstrated how a computer could 'prove' to another that it was running certain code using 'attestations.' I thought it was cool as hell, and honestly thought that if such a technology held up you could build many interesting things with it.

Potentially, it would have had many use-cases in the DeFi industry, privacy-preserving computations, and so on. Looking a bit deeper though there were signs that placing all your trust in this technology was still a gamble. For example, the 'attestations' I spoke of earlier... were reports that had been signed by Intel's public key. You lose or hack that key and suddenly you can spoof reports. Then there were the hardware exploits which was the nail in the coffin.

It's sad really because Intel SGX was some innovative shit. It would have enabled applications that just aren't possible with a conventional computing model. But it was too good to be true, unfortunately.
Is that the comparison you really want to draw?
I can't explain why this is so fascinating to me. Thanks for the great responses, I really appreciate it. I have no background knowledge of "mega loans" - what a fascinating concept. And I didn't realize that would evolve into bonds that will get purchased as investments for insurance and retirement type funds. That makes a lot of sense. Feel free to let this be, you've answered my initial question and more, but I am gonna rattle off a few follow ups.

Its unlikely one bank will make the complete loan, is it also impossible? As in, does 1 bank have that kind of money to put up? And what percentage of the loan do you think the service fees will be? Probably in the millions, but not a billion or billions? How common is a mega loan? These are minor follow ups, if you have any input great, if not all good too, I'm going to try to find some more info on the web and read some stuff. Genuinely appreciate the great responses.
