Anyone have a really old copy of Sneakers (like on laserdisc)? I noticed in the background of the bluray transfer https://files.catbox.moe/nnywzq.jpg there is this asiacrypt poster and I wondered if it was composited in later transfers over something else, as I think the conference would have been too late for the movie production.

I think sneakers still holds the record for the best number theory jargon in movie history:

"While the number-field sieve is the best method currently known, there exists an intriguing possibility for a far more elegant approach. Here we would find a composition of extensions, each Abelian over the rationals, and hence contained in a single cyclotomic field. Using the Artin map, we might induce homomorphisms from the principal orders in each of these fields that z by f z. These maps could then be used to combine splitting information from all the fields... this in turn would require the standard Kummer extensions that nontorsion form of the Jacobians of the Fermat curves gives rise to. It would be a breakthrough of Gaussian proportions and allow us to acquire the solution in a dramatically more efficient manner. Now, I should emphasize that such an approach is purely theoretical. So far, no one has been able to accomplish such constructions, yet."
It's easy to become irritated at Canadians for their never-ending holier-than-thou attitude toward America and Americans, to wish they'd piss off and find a culture that isn't based around not being you, but if you think a little more about it you'll find that anger is misguided. Canadians are in an uncomfortable position. Existing comfortably requires a certain degree of ignoring your own flaws. Canadians, possibly more than anyone else in the world, are not afforded that luxury. They have a giant mirror next door that shows them a people just like them with their own naked flaws without the ability to gloss over them. This kind of constant unconsensual reminder is stressful and must breed tremendous resentment. So the next time you're annoyed at being talked down to by a Canadian, remember that it's us who deprived them of the ability to lie to themselves about everything but the ways in which they differ from Americans.
I've kept everything in a single text file for a few years now. I store it in github and have some scripts to sync it, append to it with a time stamp and do some other things. At the start of the day I look at yesterday's entry, and then I add to the new entry throughout the day and when I log off. It's a todo list and knowledge store, like if I fix some obscure issue I'll write what I did there. Initially I cared a lot about structure and tried to maintain it as a task list with a particular syntax, but now I write dot points and short paragraphs about whatever I'm doing. I do want to fancy it up someday and create an indexing system based on tags/topics, but it's done the job thus far.
The US doesn't have any sort of wealth tax that would impact one's savings, and even if it did I've only seen proposals that would impact particularly wealthy people (like, net worth of $100m and beyond)
Fair enough. Seems pretty reasonable to expect your employees to be willing to work on what you ask them to work on, given that you're paying them and they voluntarily signed up to work for you. And as people who were able to get a job at Netflix, they surely had other options.
I use task warrior, which is a cli based tool mentioned elsewhere in the comments. However I use it both interactively (1 task at a time) and with a couple of bash scripts to create entire "projects" with dependencies in it. 1 command, a project name and sub-project name, a deadline, and 10 or 20 tasks are created for me.
Somewhere on YouTube is a talk where Gerald Sussman described mathematics (or at least mathematical presentation) as "impressionistic."

> We now need to come to terms with this failed experiment and call it all off and make them all illegal

Who is “we”? Ironically, crypto was invented to protect individuals against the authoritarian tendencies of people such as yourself. Your comment is making the case for decentralization.
There is thriving market for travel agents. I know many who do it as a side gig. When you want to arrange a group vacation like for family reunions. It’s a lot easier to have someone else take care of the details. They make their money from commissions from the destinations.
Thank you. For software, it's San Francisco, not Los Angeles, that is Mecca in the US.
What decade did those exist? The 80s?
> The government seems content with really doing nothing other than seeding billions to countries not named the United States.

I think this isn't quite accurate for a variety of reasons, much of it is that the federal government actually has significantly limited control of the above + what control it does have it has to pass through a hostile senate to accomplish.

- The federal government cannot force local government to build housing to increase supply, it can only try to incentivize, and housing can't be built fast enough to offset current demand

- The federal government cannot factories, particularly overseas ones, to produce more

- The federal government can, at most, go through a faster approval process for foreign baby formula; it cannot force current domestic makers to produce formula

- The federal government literally doesn't control crypto that's what the attraction of crypto was lol; its bombing is entirely crypto's fault; and the stocks have been pushing back against government regulation for ages already

- The gov't cannot set food prices

So precisely what do you expect the government to be doing here?
I find the idea that you shouldn't offend people odd and pretty recent. For example, when I was growing up, my mother would say "We have a G rated household." Meaning: in our household we could not watch any movies or TV shows that would not be rated G. As you might imagine, Netflix hosts lots of content that my parents would find offensive. Likewise, religious people might find pro-atheist content on Netflix offensive, anti-porn people offended by Netflix's borderline softcore pornography, political groups might be offended by various documentaries, and so on.

You really cannot hold a diverse selection of content and avoid offending people. Why is avoiding offending people now supposed to be important for Netflix?
Misfortune also disfavors the bold.

I've been thinking for a while that proof of work should be replaced with some other type of real work, such as training a Neural Net, but that runs into major issues after thinking about if for more than a second. Hopefully though, someone much smarter than me can figure something out
It’s extremely easy to spent $100 on restaurants in LA just for 2 even. It’s obscene.
America is gaining Canadians. It’s always better to be the place where the other guys want to come to rather than be the place your guys want to leave.
One could be offered the opportunity to bid for ad slots on your own search results -- that way you would know that someone was paying oodles for your eyes....

I doubt there would be much of a market, especially when ad-blockers exist.
It’s a nice idea but nah.

In pharmaceuticals, a executive needs to sign off, under penalties of imprisonment, if prices reported to the US government are incorrect.

> Canada's immigration is very clear, you hit certain criteria and you qualify

As someone who has gone through both the US green card and a canadian permanent residence processes, I have to agree. The Canadian process is way easier - and I say this as someone who is not even from one of the countries "screwed over" by crazy wait times (India/China/etc). For those folks, the difference is night and day.
Feel free to correct me, but the whole flat earth idea is mostly an Internet-era thing that is spread as a meme and nobody, apart from a _very small_ group of lunatics actually believes it.

In history there have always been true flat earthers, but they've become rarer and rarer until the Youtube era in fact, when the concept of it became so widespread because it's "funny" and not at all representative of how many people truly believe in it. The whole thing is people laughing at someone that doesn't really exist.
Not necessarily borders, but I think being in the same geographic region helps. For example, Canadians interested in making TV shows might find more collaborators and funding in Los Angeles.

Technically, especially with the internet, there is no reason a Canadian show made in Canada could not be a hit in both countries. It is just the likelihoods that change.
Cars are usually loaded onto a Ro-ro on their own power, and will have some amount of fuel on board. They typically want 10-25% full tanks to account for various contingencies, but I don't know how carefully that's monitored. Given the amount of vehicles in question, probably not that closely, though presumably manufacturers are equipped to be reasonably systematic about fuel fill.

Bilge pumps should be able to keep up with firefighting pumps. But, yes, the firefighting pumps won't be able to handle more than several cars on fire.
Sneakers is just a training movie on how a red team should do a pentest.
Is it? If this easily offended demographic were really so big the execs at Netflix are not so stupid to alienate them. The more mundane reason is this demographic is very tiny though they may be very vocal.
They shouldn’t be surprised if their userbase fades away, taking its stock price with it, then.
You would be surprised at how many people are on board with that level of punishment in the USA.
Chargers should be by the road, not in the road, but that doesn’t mean that they can’t be designed to minimize their intrusion. Such as integrated charge points in lamp poles, or ones that rise out of the ground or ones that drop from telephone poles.
Silicon Valley is the last 10ft effort at the end of a 5000 years long race made possible thanks to debt.

I also don't buy the hype of Silicon Valley , from a social standpoint it seems a place full of arseholes. Zeros and ones in the bank account, however many won't compensate having to live in such environemnt

An excellent business decision.
At this point we could probably give best medical care to all the mouse if we wanted. We probably have cure for their cancer and now way to reverse age too.
Other day there was article about how injecting brain fluid from young mouse to old one helped its brain or sth.

#lilbit_sarcasm :D
I respectfully disagree. I haven't seen cuties, but I just watched the trailer. The movie may be a good thoughtful coming of age movie, but the trailer (at least in my opinion) did not characterize that at all. If I watch a trailer and it seems to indicate a movie that's about the sexualization of very young girls, I think it's perfectly fine for me to cancel my subscription without watching the movie. You may disagree with that sentiment, and that's fine, but I think that many people who did not watch the movie had seen the trailer and had a similar reaction that I just had.
How much of this would be approved by both parties? [The democrats in the house, the republicans in the senate]
This is basically a paint manifestation of the "share the road" idea which is already common policy in North America on bidirectional roads without a bike lane.

It is darkly amusing to see a lot of motorists being upset by finally seeing this arrangement in a format they can understand - dashed and solid painted lines.
Well, today is a good day to die
Getting censored because we think there is no demand is very different to getting censored because 1 person at the company doesn't like your work or opinions or something...

But the same dynamic applies for all: "The Russians are kaput and aren't going to attack us. They might even be our friends now."

It might be hard to find numerical evidence for it, but many people will tell you that conscription in their country basically became a joke (if it existed at all) and you could wriggle out of it easily, or get an easy ride.

FWIW, I know people from all those countries who will verify this, plus South Korea and Israel, where it is not a small thing. I've heard of Isrealis even preparing themselves especially hard in order to do well on the conscription, something I'd never heard of since.
> Good luck with using that “equivalent” in an embedded web view.

It works, so thanks. Maybe you're referring to the impossibility to access the plugin's settings from the embedded web view. But if it's a site you've visited before and configured to your preference, then it takes effect in the same way there as in full FF.

> iOS content blockers tell Safari what to block and don’t have access to where you go.

If I tell it 'block scripts from example.org on news.ycombinator.com' then it's a pretty good bet that I visit news.ycombinator.com.

Right, I realise iOS content blockers aren't that powerful, so it's hypothetical. ;)
I'd like to say 'hi' to xkcd with his religious attitude towards Flynn effect and readiness to ridicule others over that.
I can’t think of anything worse for a company like Netflix than the woke crowd coming for them. Isn’t every horror movie filled with violent hate and evil?
It was no “secret” that Microsoft would be writing Excel for Windows. It was already available on the Mac.
Making such a requirement sounds like a very speedy way to find yourself suddenly very restricted by US sanctions and notice a mysterious uptick in discussions about the democratic illegitimacy of your last election.

Of course the World Bank and IMF will be happy to help you out of you drop them again though.

That is to say, very few countries actually have a choice on agreeing to "free trade" policies, local laws aren't really enough to resist that.
What they mean is they want the selection of content to be done by the people specifically hired and empowered to select content, using the official channels created specifically for this selection process. What they don't want is mobs of workers lower on the totem pole trying to impose their will on management through walkouts/etc.
Crypto investors panic amid digital coin, Bitcoin crash
In case you didn't read the article, it clearly mentions that Coffeezilla himself owns some Bitcoin. So no, he doesn't think that "all crypto is 100% scams".
Ender isn’t a has-been… it’s like the Honda Civic of 3d printers. It’s got a huge aftermarket and tons of enthusiasts.

Note: I don’t own an ender. I have some no-name 3d printer. If I did it again I’d have gotten a prusa
Brave IS Google Premium. Sadly they tied it to crypto and made a mess of the payment / payout mechanism, but the product is live and works. Likely Google has noted Brave's uptake and is in no hurry to compete. I'd pay for Chrome Premium as I do for YT premium.
I'm not sure you're disagreeing. It seems more like you are proving the parent post's point. You didn't watch the movie, yet you had an emotional reaction to it anyway, and used that to make a decision about the service. The parent isn't saying that's unethical or anything, just that the movie is being mischaracterized by people who did not watch it.
The "value" must be produced outside of the crypto system then moved into the system as a value store. I don't know how this is not an obvious concept.
you're starting from a strong conclusion that has no scientific support. I can't snap out of a naturalistic, materialistic framework, because that's the only one consistent with all the observed evidence. There is no reason to continue arguing for your position, as it is not going to convince anybody.

These are also mainly used on fully residential streets and basically codifying existing rules. They behave very similarly to streets without a center line & sidewalk/bike lanes. I also think cost does become an issue when implementing larger streets/bike lanes (let alone the fact that larger streets make people go faster) on every single residential street.
Huh? They’ve already issued multiple recalls for European formula too.

How smug are you now?

Again I see no evidence this is the case. Why would they self destruct like that? Their recent woes don’t have anything to do with “offending” people though some would like to believe that to push a narrative.
The debt part of the equation also needs to be considered for the investment. ROI is a huge factor. If it takes you 15 years to break even, the person who never saddled themselves with debt is now 15 years ahead of you income-wise and it will take you another 10 years to catch up to them as far as cumulative income goes. So what is being offered as a "great investment" is not quite as obvious to me.
Hello Solana
This + their hiring freeze and also Meta and Twitter freezing hiring, along with people displeased with Apple’s remote work policy.

Google and Microsoft are probably raking in top talent at bargain prices right now.
I assume it’s space/right-of-way related.

But, like you, I have questions about how this configuration would work (in the US, in my case). I can see it working well in towns and suburban roads in some European nations - I’m thinking Scotland here - where default speeds are lower, roads are already shared with parking (so single-tracking is a known procedure), and drivers generally aren’t assholes.

In the US, most suburban streets are posted at 25-40mph, and actual speeds tend to be higher yet, which seems WAY too fast for edge lane roads or any other mixed use roadway. Heck, in my area, we have dedicated (but not protected) bike lanes and on some roads, they’re downright scary because the traffic 3’ away is going 50mph.
If you're smart enough to realize honesty is getting in your way, but are unwilling to sacrifice it to attain your goal, you're not really "trying". In the sense that you're not actually using your intelligence to achieve your goal.
So basically you are saying that federal government is useless in a crisis. That's inaccurate, there are mandates that can be overwritten, constitution is very clear about it.
I am a Jew and I have studied this and visited camps. I just visited the site of one in France. It is quite clear that needing to separate what has happened to children and families on the southern border from that which happened to, say, the Roma during the Reich is suspicious. No one will be held accountable.

History will eventually regard the imperialist behavior of the US quite negatively. This is no comparison to Hitler’s Germany but it’s intellectually dishonest to ignore that they designed the racial Nuremberg laws on Jim Crow America. Racism, segregation, and the like are an intrinsic part of American history and one of its exports.

We built concentration camps for Japanese during the war and nothing came of that either.

Plastics off-gassing in the home, car, and at work comes to mind. It would kind of bridge the gap between habit (shopping) and industrial practice. Though I'm not sure about health or IQ implications specifically.
I can't help but feel this is aimed at trans activists who protested the Chappelle special. I think he went too far at a couple places, but that's what comedians do.

I don't think it's transphobic to push back on trans activists. I have problematic issues (bipolar, recovering alcoholic) but I don't go around demanding the world accommodate me and calling people who won't listen to me haters.
OneNote (the older one bundled with MS office, windows) has a dock to desktop feature that keeps it always on top. Windows maximize around it. Truly an underrated feature, too bad it’s poorly supported.
I often wonder about this, but there is certainly an argument to be made that yes, I think it was different. It was at least calmer.

There was so much more long form content. And instead of going online to bitch and moan about things, the only option was to speak, phone, or write each other.

I am often struck by watching media from prior decades. One much source are the presidential debates. There early ones and even as recent as Dole vs Clinton were educated, cordial, and calm, a far cry from the circus and superficial debates we have in the past few.

Where are the long form interviews or speeches? Were can I find speeches like those done by prior presidents, intellectuals, and activists? Is there anyone who comes close to someone like Martin Luther King, Jr.? One could argue that some of these historical figures are diamonds in the rough. Indeed, it is probably true. But one can question if our modern society allows a breeding ground for these people to thrive.

I think basically anything prior to the pervasiveness of the Internet was different. The promises of the Internet came true. It has connected us, in ways never thought possible, but it's connected the deepest of our primal emotions. We simply cannot ingest the amount of information we're bombarded with. It doesn't promote an environment for deep, considerate, and rational thought and discourse.
If you make an object smaller, you can get closer to it's center of mass, increasing your experience of it's gravitational force.

your experience of its gravitional force is dependant on distance.

the description of force experienced being spoken about is from the frame of a variable distance observer, not the gravitating body.
Isn't that relatively confounding information? A person who would succeed, might succeed with or without a degree.

you mean dark respiration?

not particularly interesting; again, you'd prefer to have a solar panel and a battery, because their efficiencies are far, far higher. You can make a battery out of a potato.
Auto-correction, should be 'criteria'
I cannot speak about Europe, but in the US, mid-seventies is when one US Political Party started its war on Education, and that accelerated in the 80s and still on going. So I agree it is lack of quality of free education in the early years of childhood development.

Too bad the study did not also look at IQ differences between private/public schools over the same period. By private, I mean the schools that only the very rich can send their children too.

Also, I did read somewhere else, a study was also done on increased CO2 and intelligence and found higher CO2 could lower peoples intelligence level.
