There are even civilian city tanks: SUVs… ok enough with the satire.

I disagree with the author. What is a panzer is also a tank to the layman, and language changes with its (incorrect) usage. See also the last paragraph.

Tank doctrine or tank building parts make a tank. Bergungstiger is a tank. Not having („tank“) tracks, but armor, wheels and anti-tank weapons, is still a tank. ``Jagdpanzer‘‘s (mostly front armored, no-turret tanks) are tanks.

There is not even a definition for „salad“ that we as humankind can agree on, but: if we see it, we know if it is a salad, tank, or both.
He was a combatant under the AUMF following 9/11 that allowed the US to launch a global war. It doesn't matter if they are in a “combat zone”. That’s not how the AUMF works.

He had been directly tied to conspiring with terrorist groups to carry out attacks. Support, logistics, etc. He even publicly stated his support and affiliation. That is known. One of the arguments is that the US government was acting in self defense.

The logical justifications as outlined in the specifications for targeted killing in the target list is unknown, due to state secrets law. It’s impossible to say if the action was legal or not. As legal scholars have been able to make a legal case for targeted killings, it’s completely possible that it was legal. That’s why it’s relevant. But due to the law, we’ll probably never know. It’s probably a good indication too that the courts declined to pursue the case.

Have you taken the time to read what’s available of the actual memo? Heavily redacted: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/02/10/us/16firstolc...

“The conclusion draws further support from the fact that even, in domestic law enforcement, the operations the Supreme Court has noted that the suspect threatens the officer with a weapon there is probable cause to believe that he has committed a crime involving the infliction or threatened infliction of serious physical harm , deadly force may be used if necessary to prevent escape and if, where feasible, some warning hasbeen given.” Tennessee v. Garner, 471U.S. 1, 11-12 (1985), where a capture operation is infeasible and the targeted person is part of a dangerous enemy force and poses a continued and imminent threat to persons or interests, the use of lethal force would not violate the FourthAmendment.”

The Supreme Courts ruling, as cited, seemed to support this. No formal charges need to be brought against an armed civilian threatening others in the street, they would simply be given a warning, and shot dead.

Al-Awlaki was not some innocent American sitting in a Starbucks drinking a coffee when the US decided it was his time. He was an active participant, facilitator, and leader of a hostile enemy group that sought, and tried to carry out terrorist attacks against the US.
There's absolutely nothing technical about this. It's entirely political, there's no technology that needs to be developed for this. All you have to do is create laws (or allow monopolies and cartels to impose "standards") that require people to carry their cellphones at all times. Make physical doorknobs illegal (as a security threat, and lack of accessibility for the disabled.) Done.

You don't even need cellphones. Just issue people hard to forge documentation and set up checkpoints. It's the difference between a fence and a shock collar.

Your dream seems to be to set up the infrastructure for universal command and control, then expect it to choose to regulate itself.
Not a single one in most cases. Which explains tech companies these days.
With https://github.com/c-blake/nio/blob/main/utils/catz.nim you can get similar format agnostic decoding/decompression not just in tar but in any pipeline context based on magic numbers, not filename extensions and even doing the copy loop needed for unseekable inputs to replace the early read -- e.g. cat foo.gz|catz|less works..
I’m curious why this strikes you as a more reasonable explanation. It seems to me that you would need to make more assumptions to arrive at this conclusion than to arrive at other alternative conclusions.
That's perfectly fine, as long as you can still get the majority of things done in a way Rust can prove.

If removing a large number of possible programs reduces bugs without limiting features, that seems like a win.
I actually looked into Mochi as well. I really like the ability to make edits inside the program. For me though, I like having my notes in markdown files so I could move it to places, upload to websites, etc.
I would say some programming skill is useful for anyone in the modern world, but I would just learn some Python and data manipulation tools. Something like Automate the Boring Stuff with Python would be good.
What is the direction Sweden is going? Is it getting better with the immigration it is doing? Or are things starting to look worse on some indicators?
What are some examples of really great deleted articles that we now have the opportunity to read thanks to this site?
No. They outline what’s possible under the law as it is.
I'm sure there might be because several years ago the U.S. created the U.S. Digital Service with the premise being recruiting professionals (yeah mostly from corporate but not only) to spend time in the government and help modernize many of its aspects and offerings...for the benefit of the citizens, etc. Here's one example of their playbooks: https://playbook.cio.gov/

...While not exactly like the Singapore page linked in this post, alot of the intent with the USDS - as i understand it - is alos to be quite transparent with the hope of any other government agencies/orgs such as state/province level, city level, etc. benefiting from their ideas and hopefully broadening the benefit at all levels. Here is the main site, but of course (as the above playbook link denotes), there are plenty of other related sites that might help better answer your question: https://www.usds.gov/mission

The ability to get a websites data. What data? That depends upon the parameters entered. Explain the Twitter api and how your able to change parameters like date and screenname to get specific tweets. This doesn’t exactly explain everything about an api but it covers the most popular case.
Yup. You need to make a lot of assumptions arrive at this strained conclusion. Why not apply Occam’s razor?
This is completely blown out of any conceivable proportion. The supreme court is correct, they should strike their previous decision and let the lawmakers create the proper framework.

Weird to equate this to slavery. These people actually think the supreme court revoking its previous ruling will ban abortions outright.
I, for one, want the chip in my hand rather than my forehead.

Apple's Director of Machine Learning exits over return-to-office policy
Okay! I just opened OsmAnd and looked up my local supermarket. Sadly, no work hours. And this is a very popular supermarket right next to a train station in central Brooklyn, NY.

The thing is that business owners do update the info on Google Maps, and have an incentive to do so, but only volunteers update OSM.

OSM shines where businesses don't care but volunteers do: trails in a park, non-commercial POIs, etc.
Also felt that everything in the article is racially connected. If there was a fundamentally wrong thing with Wikipedia i would expect more topics to be touched.

Furthermore some of the justifications seemed fine, with the only thing I could get behind being that except for unlawful content the history of edits should never be removed. That would be the proverbial rewriting of history, which I find wrong. A pity the author got too caught up calling woke and revealing personal details of supposed conflicts of interest.

Finally calling woke is as much a cannary denominator for ideological activism as reactionary or capitalist. It reeks miles away. If you are anti censorship focus on that.

I agree with "automate the boring stuff with python." It's actually the first book I used to learn Python.

I think it would be good if you learn it prior to going in. You just won't have time to do any programming learning in med school. Med school is more than a full time job by itself.

I know what Chesterton's Fence means, but wish you would elaborate a little on how it relates to the policy.
Microsoft only taxes laptops sold by physical retail outlets. When ordering them online, one can often find a laptop without any OS preinstalled. Vendors are usually selling them to corporations who want Win10 enterprise covered by their volume licensing contracts.

Another good thing about them, it’s very uncommon for enterprise-targeted models to have soldered RAM or SSD. For instance, my secondary computer is HP ProBook 445 G8 with Ryzen 5 5600U which I upgraded to 32GB RAM / 2TB SSD, can recommend. However, I have no idea about ChromeOS compatibility, I’m using Windows and ordered a version with the OS license included.
Agreed but maybe this is a concession for mobile users? Can't confirm without registering an account.
Hmm. Just for anecdata: my shaving takes maybe 40-60 seconds with a cartridge I keep about 6 months. Yes, I know, I should be ashamed :)

FIDO security keys connect over USB or NFC to authenticate into a computer. There have not been much successes using them for physical access.
I'm playing with it a bit and it doesn't seem to be that great. "Trim margins" doesn't work on images and it takes a bizarrely long time to open a single image file, on the order of four seconds.
Yeah that's quite understandable. I just wish Microsoft/Google would attempt to improve this aspect - they probably already are doing things but from the sound of it not enough.
Not a bad attempt.

And I know this is all just a bit silly fun, but I'd prefer such predictions to reflect a world view/philosophy of how one thinks society will be designed (same or different) in that future. Some of these are too niche to reflect this - e.g., that London/New York will look the same. That doesn't really say much. Much more interesting would be some ideas about urban centers more broadly rather than cherry picking 2 which have already been relatively stagnant for a while.

And some are just not specific enough such that I'm actually confused. e.g., what does it mean to say that the leader of India in 2032 will be the same as in 2022. Do you literally mean that Modi will be India's PM? While India doesn't have a term limit for the PM, Modi will be ~82 in 2032. Or do you mean that the BJP party will still be in power? If so, do you mean that a RSS member of the BJP will be in power or a non-RSS member? Will the BJP be in power with a relative majority like it currently is, or with a particularly large coalition like in say the early '00s under Vajpayee (when the BJP won less than 24% of the vote but formed a coalition of 13 parties, as opposed to right now where the BJP has over 50% of the seats alone). The answers to these mean _very_ different things about India's direction come 2032.
Please no more NFTs, we've had enough of that.
Is the basic idea clear? I'd say it's just that the statement "I don't have enough information" is _itself_ information that can be used to eliminate some possibilities.

After understanding that idea, the rest is just tedious logic/brute-force-search, I believe.

It's also possible that there is ambiguity in the statement or something like that. Hard to say exactly what part isn't connecting with you.
This is pretty neat, I've also encountered the same problem. Personally, I take my notes in emacs org-mode, and I've built up a workflow around anki-editor[0], some snippets and elisp.

Note that it's often difficult to tell if these signals are good or bad. For example:

1. Clicking on a link is often a negative signal. If you're searching for "when was barack obama born?", hopefully you get the answer on the search results page itself, so you never have to click. Or, the caption for each search result should have a snippet containing the answer.

2. If you stay a long time on the search result you click on, is it because the information is hard to find or because the page is deep and useful?

I used to work on Search measurement at YouTube and Facebook, and run a human evaluation platform now. Here's an example what they can look like when you use high-quality raters: https://demos.surgehq.ai/google-vs-bing/
You need to have the skin for it.

I have a DE razor and am using it for the weekend or other special occasions only because the fast way is too fast for my skin and beard (beard is like steel...). I need it properly prepared and that takes more time than I want to spend in the morning on normal days. I use an electric one than.

And I mean, why not? I quite enjoy to take some time if I don't have to wake up early for it. I listen to my audiobook and do it properly.
Maybe that's part of how they train it?

I feel like you are all over the place. Or maybe just two places. Those two things:

1. We can “save the planet” (whatever that means to us) by forcing companies to change: ultimately it is we who have to change because the change flows from us

2. None of this matters: it’s just about personal integrity

Because these two can be combined: if everyone just had sufficient integrity/character then we could “save the planet”. We wouldn’t be trying to do that, as individuals, but that would be the emergent result.

What I’ve been complaining about all along is just the apparent idea that we can help the environment by voting with our wallets. But if this is all about (2) then I don’t give a shit at all: I don’t care about the personal finance aspect, the frugality aspect, or the “living your values” aspect; I simply think the idea that we as consumers have more power than companies is wrong. And specifically when it comes to “saving the planet”.

But if “saving the planet” is not a concern then we are just talking past each other.

And all of that crap about “excuses” is just you projecting your living-your-values mission onto others; I don’t care, for even one second, about that stuff. At least the way you present it.

It is, by the way, funny how you think that “companies” want us to think that we are powerless. Well sure, maybe they do. But they have indeed invested money in the idea of the all-powerful consumer. The now famous “carbon footprint” was an invention by British Petroleum: the idea that we should, as individuals—always as individuals—just turn off the bathroom light and maybe not drive on Sundays. The “carbon footprint” is of course the fault of individuals, not of entities like BP. British Petroleum and you would at least agree on that much.

Maybe the perfect consumer (as far as companies are concerned) does feel powerless. But she also has to feel a sort of paradoxical guilt for using about ten planets worth of resources (if extrapolated to the human race).

And yet another trick is to reduce people to consumers (as in only that). Hence your fallacious conclusion that my line of reasoning is that people should feel powerless. But that ignores the fact that people are also citizens, and they have more potential power as citizens (political animals) compared to your don’t-tread-on-me code of conduct.
Personally I think this is a huge breakthrough that brings huge phishing resistance to billions of people's accounts.

While it's good to be suspicious of something so critical like authentication, particularly coming from a big tech alliance, what about the positives?
Consider the number one issue for most people is still phishing, and under this system there's no password to be phished anymore. Also consider that this system is likely using Bluetooth for the PC to phone challenge/response, avoiding current issues with passwordless MFA apps (i.e. Microsoft's right now) where the user could be still be social engineered to confirm a logon by a remote attacker. The Google smart lock app works like this today using BT and FIDO, so we know it works.

Plus the core tech is from what I can tell, just tried and tested asymmetric crypto, with the private key on your phone. The public key is on registered on every web service you want to use it on. Second factor is the phone PIN/Biometric. Sure, Apple will let you store the key in iCloud, but we aren't talking standard iCloud backup here, this is iCloud Keychain where it's protected by your device passwcode which Apple does not know. And if none of this is for you, just use a Yubikey, it's the same tech. And if you do choose to use it, while you are at it, add several Yubikeys as backups to every service, that's standard practice and how it works now.
Maybe something like Jupyter? Text documents with sections of code or commands?

Also I suggest making it really easy to invite someone else to play with you by sending them a link. That's more complex though.

Also since you already have a spectator mode, it'd be cool if people see an active game when they go to the home page, like lichess.org. That might be even harder to do that invite links.

Nice that you can share the result of a game! http://www.battle-of-flags.com/match/index/695

Nice. Seems to be missing text overwrite in the annotations. Where you want to type new text to replace existing text and the old text gets a strikethrough. I use this a lot when reviewing documents.
Counter-anecdotally, a friend of mine is one of the leaders of the Starbucks unionization efforts in Oregon, and they adore their store manager. The complaints that are driving those union efforts are the result of corporate policies and in no way related to specific stores.

I can't say anything well-informed about Amazon specifically, but mega-corps tend to build lots of layers of middle management, then apply high-pressure incentive structures from the top that force middle management to do things that are unpopular with lower-level employees. When these policies inevitably backfire, it's the middle-management that gets axed for it.
Hey, I remember having seen your program months ago here. I played with it a little bit now and it certainly looks interesting.

A little bit of feedback if you dont mind:

- Allow to deactivate the notifications for reviewed cards and the info on pressing the space bar. They can get annoying pretty fast.

-At least for the desktop browser version put the preferences in a normal page, not a modal. It was a pain to scroll down since I use only a shitty trackpad,so no mouse-wheel.
Vehicles without rotatable turrets were generally called Assault Guns or Tank Destroyers during WW2.

Most definitions of tanks rely on a heavily armored, tracked platform and a fully rotatable turret with armament capable of killing other similarly armored and armed vehicles.
Cube-rule is pretty funny.

Specifically this picture: https://cuberule.com/assets/15_cube_rule.jpg

Of course, this rule is absurd, since it classifies hotdogs, pie, and subs as a "taco". I think the overall point remains, that no matter how you wish to "classify" things, you can always find a unique counter-example that messes up your classifications.
In other words it’s all about upholding religious prejudices, which, while harmful to society, benefit certain people. It’s no different from sharia law. (Except even sharia law doesn’t condone this particular stupidity.)
That's why you can pick your favourite shell for your user account.

If you all log in to the same account, you'll need to pick some standard. It doesn't really matter if the system decides on that standard or if you just ask the team what they prefer and pick the most popular shell. When in doubt, install all shells, log in to sh and let people start their shell of choice.
"Ordinary" soap does work but I find it tends to dry out more quickly than I can shave my whole face hence at home I use shaving soap with a brush. But when I travel I'll happily use the hotel's free hand soap at tbe destination to save the hassle of bringing more things through the airport.
Surprisingly badly paid. I wonder how strongly quality would track pay? Probably they act as a CAPTCHA mutually cross checking and so QA is by volume, and not coincidentally demands they work in isolation.

Sad story.
Collaborative filtering: not just for movie recommendations anymore?
You don't need a terrible manager to have a union. A union isn't an attack, it's a bunch of peers caucusing. That's anti-union rhetoric, the idea that if there's good management you don't need a union, and that having a union is some kind of insult.
