WRT revocation, it says

> Lock acts as a part of D2D network which allows easy updates to blocked keys list.

However that makes me wonder how it gets power? Or does it use the power from insertion to phone home at that moment? Can an attacker jam right then?

Also, AES256 is sort of a weird algorithm to put front and center. I'd expect something instead based on asymmetric crypto, probably public/private certs.

Also, I kinda want to see lock picking lawyer's take on the physical construction itself. I know enough to know I don't know anything in that space.
Breslow had previously tweeted about NYT - https://twitter.com/theryanking/status/1514385094403833862
> The request would be "Total number of male persons that identify as women". The sex doesn't change, the gender does. The FOIA request would say invalid, or zero, and be accurate, regarding the ones identifying as "female".

Actually a lot of them now do identity as female, and claim to have literally changed their sex from male to female.

The old idea of "man/woman refers to gender, male/female refers to sex" no longer applies these days.

Not content with colonizing the word "woman", they've now done the same to "female".

This is contemporary trans discourse for you, erasing women and trampling all over women's rights.
See, the problem is that we think and act like we're in a post-truth world, but we're not. Reality is out there. Certain statements correspond more closely with the reality that exists, and others less. Reality doesn't go away when you don't believe it, when it's outside your filter bubble, when it's censored by all the big social media outfits. And building a society that is based on something contrary to reality is... let's call it "probably unstable".
They both offend me very much.

A substantial portion of people don't use dating apps to find a relationship. You may just be visiting a city and interested in having someone take you out to the nicest restaurant in town.

If you're looking to settle down then the payment factor probably doesn't matter so much, in which case you could place TWIBS at your local pizza place, bowling alley, hiking trails.

The idea is to help people find what they're actually looking for instead of assuming everyone is out to find "the one"
Onomatopoeia are commonly equated to phonomimes but can also include phenomimes and psychomimes. Phonomimes are meant to imitate an actual sound - like "bark" for a Dog (wanwan in Japanese). Most Japanese onomatopoeic expressions come in the double form (the sound repeated twice). There are of course っと and り forms of onomatopoeia but the double form is probably the most common and among the most known ones.

Phenomimes are onomatopoeia that depict something closer to an action than a sound - for example "powering up" (can't recall this one sorry) or "to be spinning around" (guruguru).

Doubled base onomatopoeia are not unique to Japanese either. Think of "bam-bam", "pop-pop", "click-click", "chirp-chirp", "oink-oink" or a bit less strictly "rattattat". I believe the technical linguistic term for this is called reduplication.
The problem with “doing your own research”
This is actually Linux. Linux can be real time enough for parts of the safety-critical side, but it's usually not run all the way through and Linux itself has certification difficulties. You'll typically either have an RTOS side or have a high integrity super/hypervisor that can guarantee your system properties.

Anyway... The point of Linux is to help automotive software teams escape the crushing burden of traditional embedded development. The current situation is such that it's impossible to adhere to modern development best practices with typical team sizes and development workloads. Adopting commodity/standardized platforms is a huge part of how companies like GM are trying to escape that reality and the software issues automakers have become known for.
I only vaguely remember Stride but I don't think it amounted to much more than a rebranding of HipChat.

I'm trying to build a low cost NAS for my paltry needs, but the price per _drive_ doesn't seem to be moving. Every time a larger size is introduced, I scoff at the price for something I don't need, but the price of a 4TB doesn't go anywhere. I bought four drives on eBay, they were 80% of retail price, and all four were dead. It's pretty frustrating but I don't want to spend so much money that I don't have.
No. The definitions of these are clear. It's pretty easy to define what is a franchise and what is a retail shop.

The problem is with this definition of "lifestyle business". What is the cutoff? What does it mean to "support a lifestyle?" If a company makes 10M/year and it is growing at a healthy pace without VC capital, is it "lifestyle"?

If someone makes a living of investing in fast food franchises, each shop by itself taking 500k of initial investment and then returning $100k/year in profit, do you count each individual franchise as a "lifestyle" business or the whole thing as an "equity investment"?

Like others said already (and maybe that is the point of TFA), this definition of "lifestyle business" seems to serve only as a way for VCs to downplay the significance and importance of so many businesses that exist in every sector.

That's not accurate. The Bill of Rights was passed by Congress two years prior to the Haitian Revolution.
Why “Staying Out of It” Backfires in Moral and Political Disagreements[pdf]
If we look back on US public health policy it wasn't really a liberal democracy until maybe about 1970 given such strong government institutions that shut down dissent. It turns out that the US back to the polio vaccine forcibly vaccinated many, many populations. The demographic differences in the groups affected were interesting - the primary resistance came from the black community that distrusted the government. We can go back to the Spanish Flu period and it turns out that we had the same exact problems of 2020 in terms of popular public health policy debate as well with anti-maskers and pro-maskers.

The problems I see is that public discourse has become the same thing as the old Internet in all the bad ways from decades past with almost none of the good parts. Bad faith arguments, Godwin's Law everywhere, slippery slope fallacies everywhere, etc. are now _standard_ and expected making all but the simplest discussions impossible.
Olive oil (well, oleic acid) is a sirtuan booster, so, why not?! I personally prefer King Oscar. Sardines truly are a super food - quality protein, stable omega-3s, and tons of other nutrients! A great low-calory nutritionally-dense food for less than a Startbucks coffee!
You're absolutely right. So I do without 30 FPS.

We're all up this tree where we want all the features we're used to and we're willing to put up with software bloat and insecure software and sprawling supply chains to get it. I'm not. So I start with something minimalist and do what I can within it.

They URLs were first indexed at that time, they likely edited the content of those pages. Newspapers have begun doing that with articles too, "updating" them. This is why we urgently need a permanent archive of news and government sites. Most of the data released on the internet is currently lost, I think I saw an estimate claiming something like 80% of internet data is lost every 20 years.
I've worked as a 'professional' driver and I can tell you with certainty and a very large sample size that the only people who question Google Maps / Waze are Boomers.

Nobody under 50 ever so much as blinked an eye when I used voice recognition on my phone to start navigating to their address or the airport.

Boomers? "Google Maps doesn't know how to get to my house", "It makes you take X exit and that's ALWAYS slower" and so on and on.

They were always wrong. Google and Waze always knew where their house was, and showed a valid route to/from. Waze and Google Maps were always accurate to within a minute or two arrival-time-wise. Yet every time the Boomer in the back seat demanded a route change, they'd add 5-10 minutes to the trip time. I'd note the arrival time estimate, then note it going up with each turn the Boomer in the back seat made me take, and I'd note the final time, and it was always higher.

My dispatcher confirmed that drivers seemed to only complain about back-seat driving from boomers.

It was infuriating because I was not paid by time nor mileage, but trip, and sometimes I'd end up missing a shot at another trip I'd been lined up for.

Boomers were the only ones to insist on "helping" load or unload their luggage from the trunk...or supervising me / offering their opinion on how to best load. Or expressing doubt that I could not lift their luggage. And then express surprise when, shockingly, someone who spends all fucking day loading luggage in and out of the same car, is highly competent at it.

Boomers were the only ones to insist on "helping" the trunk lid auto-closer close. I'd push the button, start walking away, and the clown would stand there and press on the trunk lid (sometimes making the mechanism freak out, which would of course convince them that they were right, the mechanism needed their help.)
As someone who primarily rides a motorcycle for transportation, and literally has no way to interact with my phone while riding, I agree with the sentiment that this is absolutely blood boiling.

I use Google Maps by listening to the directions through a bluetooth speaker in my helmet so I rarely am ever actually looking at the screen. I absolutely hate how many times it will interrupt/announce absolutely useless information, or at times suddenly announce a route change for a 30 second faster route and it'll just sit there waiting for my input which I cannot provide in order to cancel.

> In reality the debate should just be "how many weeks into pregnancy should it be allowed?", but that's hard to sell in a campaign so politicians will go hard one way or the other.

I've read the problem there was actually Roe v. Wade itself. The Supreme Court took it upon itself to prematurely decide the issue, which twisted the politics around it into a question of "how to control the Supreme Court" that is resistant to nuance (because the court is so insulated from normal politics).

Without Roe v. Wade, the debate would have probably eventually settled on the question you proposed in nearly all jurisdictions, though with some setting a number that Roe or Casey forbade.
The airlines were also at least partly at fault in the Boeing 737 MAX debacle. They specifically asked Boeing for an airplane with flight characteristics identical to existing 737NG models so that their pilots wouldn't need new type certification, which is why Boeing came up with MCAS as a flawed solution. Boeing and the FAA should have pushed back on that, and found the flaws earlier, but none of that would have happened if airlines hasn't tried to cheap out.

The 737 MAX 10 does have longer landing gear.
This is such a large problem that it's a cultural meme that nobody can decide what to watch on Netflix, or what music to listen to on Spotify, or what game to play from their Steam library.

There's just too much of everything. There are too many musicians, movies, and games that friends, family, and the recommendation algorithms all swear I absolutely must experience before I can call my life complete.
> I ended up implementing the Fowler–Noll–Vo 1a hash, which is known for trading some quality for increased performance. It was designed to be fast

This is a surprisingly resistant belief. It may have been true once, but today FNV is not even close to being a fast hash function. Check the SMHasher benchmarks:

https://github.com/rurban/smhasher#smhasher

FNV1a almost 2x slower than blake3, a cryptographic hash function! More than 10x slower than modern hashers such as Farm, City, Spooky, ..., all of which have far better statistical quality than FNV1.

There is no good reason to use an FNV function nowadays.
And make sure its not blend-in nano-particle zinc oxide, apparently it blends in by crossing into your bloodstream. I've been mostly using the fern pills that are advertised to stop sun damage.

My pet peeve is when I'm in an unfamiliar area but know my exit is coming in a mile or two it will keep reminding me to not be in the rightmost lane, then 1/4 mile or less from my exit it will suddenly tell me GET RIGHT AND EXIT NOW! In moderately heavy traffic, that's not always easy to do. There was no reason I couldn't have been in that lane earlier.
Yeah so the JSON quoting part is something I’m pretty pleased with. We use a YAML parser (JSON is a subset of YAML) to parse those values, which is what allows for double quotes to be omitted.

Good point on iterating on the query! We already save the body into a temp file, so we can make Probe be able to run queries on a file. Adding it to the todo list. :)

(In my own workflow I use gron a lot for getting an overview of the shape of unfamiliar JSON, super handy tool)

As to an interactive shell… yes, 100%. Kicking ideas around something like that as well!
Hex/base64 encoding of some bytes from system random isn't sufficient, it needs to be UUID parseable format specifically?

Aside from that, I guess your other dependencies have the same problem. It's not enough for one person to be mindful if they need something fully reasonable like a web server library which then depends on a million packages to build from source. Often-used dependencies could

- work like a regular package system (e.g. Debian's) and distribute (reproducible) binaries unless explicitly asked to build from source,

- only pull optional dependencies when they're used (a web server might depend on a logrotate dependency but maybe you don't use on-disk logs at all)

- and/or be more selective in what they depend on.

None of these are quick and easy to do without downsides

I don't see this as level-headed at all. This is really an extension of the "both sides" logical fallacy. It reminds me of Elon Musk's ridiculous tweet [1].

Why is this ridiculous? Because there is no extreme left in US politics. There's like 4 members of Congress you could consider leftist. The Democratic Party as it exists now is a center right party that makes just enough progressive noises to fundraise without actually doing anything legislatively.

In the last 10 years the only things that have really changed are legalizing of gay marriage (long overdue), #MeToo, some attention to the institutional racism that black people continue to live under and a long overdue reevaluation of widespread transphobia. That's literally it.

On the right, we reacted to the first black US president by electing a bona fide white supremacist [2]. The #1 show on the #1 "news" network openly pushes Nazi propaganda [3]. And what was the supposd left doing? Pelosi is campaigning for the only anti-choice Democrat in Congress [4] (ironically in Texas when the Supreme Court draft leaked).

The right has been massively successful in creating wedge issues to make people care about things that don't matter (eg trans people in college sports)

We've had 49 years to Federally codify Roe v. Wade but the supposed part of the Left has refused to do so despite numerous opportunities to do so.

Which brings us back to the ACLU: what hard-left turn?

I may honestly be misremembering, because I use Brave, whose behavior usually follows Chrome. At any rate, it's typical of the "Can we? You sure? You sure? You sure? OK, thanks!" anti-pattern we all hate.
My concern about effectiveness about the "AI safety" stuff is that it kind of sidesteps the whole effectiveness analysis: if you're nominally working on risks you claim to be existential or apocalyptic, then the work is almost automatically "effective" even if you don't do anything really, just because the risk is so big that an infinitesimal decrease amounts to massive impact.

I'm sure just because of the nature of the movement there's been lots of thinking about the likelihood of various future scenarios and accounting for this in less flippant terms than I've just described it, but it seems to me that this is a group of people who are skewed to think AI is more likely, more potentially dangerous, and more interesting to work on and fund.

Putting aside the likelihood of AGI materializing at all, it's not really clear to me that paying for a bunch of research on this necessarily affects the actual AI that would be produced anyway, as that's being done by different people with different interests and incentives. You see people discuss the numbers of people affected by something like malaria prevention versus eventual extinction at the hands of AI as a justification for the need for AI work, but less talk about how we actually know what kinds of things we can do to do malaria prevention and really not so much the AI stuff. Obviously you have to start somewhere but...

From an outsider's perspective, the whole area just kind of feels like a pit you can throw money into while pretending you're being rigorous about spending.

Right. I'm still asking where is the 'use case' in beanie babies vs cryptocurrencies, or stable-coins like what Stripe is using it for?

> Stripe is happily selling pickaxes to gold miners, as they say. They are more than happy to collect their "useless" fiat USD, and play along. I think it's ethically dubious, but... that's another story. It's certainly profitable.

Surely both you and the author are going to be disappointed and have to complain a bit more if you're looking into 'destroying' it all.
I think everyone is becoming more Authoritarian.

The right will never stop because the survival of their traditions depend on it. The left will never stop because they know what's best for us.

The central idea of Liberalism is that societies grow best when their citizens have enough calm space to figure out their own lives. The internet constantly shows us lives we find heretical, and without conscious effort to calm ourselves down and let go, that calm is gone.

I guess we just mob up and go to war now.

EDIT:

In a sense, the internet has crashed hundreds of millions of people into the same village. We're still working out how to live with one another.

In practice it's people screaming for leaders to make sweeping rules to fight against the corrupting influence of whatever force they don't like in their mega-village, taking turns in an escalating battle.

The referenced paper on uniserve: https://petereliaskraft.net/res/uniserve.pdf is interesting, but seems to focus on systems where storage and compute are colocated, but it doesn't discuss (or maybe I skimmed too quickly) more modern architectures where compute and storage are separated (usually with a caching layer built into the compute nodes). In those architectures, most concerns about shifting data around at query time are moot.

Also in my experience building the scatter-gather query functionality and re-aggregation is usually the easiest part. The hard part is figuring out how to build fair multi-tenancy and QoS into what is essentially a massively parallel user facing real-time data lake.
Sure, but did they write the first amendment with racist intent? It isn't as if everything a racist does is motivated by their racism, they aren't putting the kettle on to make some tea to really show those [insert racial minority here] what for, or buying new jeans to put [insert minority here] in there place. There aren't racists planting bushes in their garden specifically to be racist. They are just racist people planting bushes because they want bushes in their garden and the racism is entirely unrelated.
