I think you might be confusing manufacturers for the cable here - a lot of VCDS-type cable companies (or OBDII bluetooth etc) will charge per-operation for feature unlocks. That's not VW though - that's the companies selling this coding operation.
What other note apps can show all incomplete tasks from any note in one view?
I’d love to use Apple Notes to keep things simple, but I’m looking to use a notes app that shows all my incomplete tasks / to do checkboxes in one view. I’ve discovered that Dropbox Paper does this, but the app is otherwise pretty clunky and annoying, not to mention that files are saved in a proprietary format, which doesn’t seems ideal to me.

I just can’t figure out a good way to search for this, so hoping to tap some first hand knowledge here.

Fully agree with your point on the grey market aspect of things. I'm also curios about the actual implementations that they hope to see not to mention how they would hope to regulate "internal" chats and other internal communications channels which are, as far as I know, not in the scope of this bill. I had some thoughts on some of the many issues this type of thinking result in - https://psyonik.tech/posts/thoughts-on-the-uk-online-safety-...

TL;DR for the article:
1. Any technical solution will be imperfect and can potentially lead to hundreds if not thousands of cases being raised
2. Difficulties in clearing your name in the case of false flags (not to mention how this would actually be implemented)
3. No clear guidance on how such a system would work
4. A death to encryption services since any system that would entail some for of media transfer would be in scope
5. A grey/dark market place for custom software that will still allow encrypted communications run on VPSes/servers that might restrict UK access but could be accessible through VPNs that exit outside of the UK and thus wouldn't fall under the legislation (I think, feel free to correct me on any of these points ofc).
6. A host of other issues from overworked law enforcement trying to deal with the flood to the migration of individuals involved in any illegal activities far far deeper and thus more difficult to detect.

This is a clear as day example of what happens when people with no understanding of these topics (and many others, I'm sure economy, education and law enforcement is managed by people with no real world experience in said fields...) are allowed to legislate.

It is normal.
Frontend code is much harder to test than backend. It also has a visual aspect that backend doesn't have.
Your API server doesn't care about cross browser specs, or screen resolution. So when a new iPad comes in, you don't have a new dozen of bugs.
Also frontend lacks developers, so it happens that there are plenty of intermediate developers who have a junior level, leading to spaghetti code, and unmaintainable code, and poor management pushing unrealistic deadlines.
Thanks for sharing your experience with such honesty. I don’t think you’re an idiot for how you handled the situation. You just didn’t know better and that’s simply unfortunate. It’s amazing that you pulled yourself out of that rut.

I’ve not been laid off as part of a mass layoff, but I have been put on an impossible PiP because my new manager was not able to manipulate me despite his best efforts. At the time, I had no clue why I was put on PiP despite solid performance for the 7 months I was in the company (it was a startup and I didn’t have a direct manager for that time). I was in shock for 3 days but I pulled myself together and investigated the matter by speaking diplomatically with my manager. When I realised he could not answer any questions that would make the PiP “less impossible”, I realised that he just wanted me gone. I resigned the next day.

I look back at that layoff with gratitude:

1. I quit a toxic culture that was bringing out the worst in me

2. I re-calibrated my relationship with work. I no longer push myself all the time (at the time, that’s the only way I would relate to work - by going the extra mile every time)

3. I started a meditation practice that I still practice. It changed my entire outlook on work and life. My relationships are better and life is much much less stressful.

NaNs cannot be extended in any way, in many interpreters NaN is used to "hide" pointers in 64 bit floats using the 52 free bits in NaN values.

IMO NaN should have never existed, like signed zeros, (I am more agnostic about [signed] Infinity) I think that they were implemented in IEEE 754 because the encoding had space left for them.

I not an expert in any way on this this is literally a personal opinion.

Ah, yeah, "restart the process" was not the right description of what was happening in the cases I was thinking of - they'd exec themselves to hot reload code which I see is the first suggestion on the SA answer you linked.
I think in many ways it does because - and this is not meant to be a criticism but a statement of experience - I have really only heard complaints from those that are used to a culture of being able to drive somewhere, get their items of choice and bring them back. Maybe it is more of a Stockholm thing to plan days around this sort of thing, but when you say you only change once from Thorildsplan that is to me initially thinking an amazing setup. But I can see where if you come from a place where you just hop into the car and drive 5 minutes you get to your destination why it would be annoying. And yeah ofc it's just expected that for somethings you need to plan 3rd party services around things. For the garbage collection prime example, TipTapp is our goto since it works wonders for us (but ofc can't technically do "garbage" with it but great for sofas and such), we accept that without a car and trailer this is what we must do. That or plan around a neighbor's trip. As for not renting, I mean it's stockholm, parking will be expensive and not everyone likes the idea of paying 1100kr per month for parking I get it. Sometimes we rent a car but that's more for longer trips (read: to Romme Alpin or the like). I guess it's part of living in the city. You make a lot of tradeoffs. I do remember hearing how frustrating it was though for some expat colleagues that everything had to be planned for summer by like April/May and they liked to be more spontaneous. It makes me wonder that maybe it is just expected of people to plan too much here :P. If you try to just be spontaneous it doesn't work out well for many
> It is still an issue. A different OS could load and mimic the normal boot procedure to steel any credentials entered.

What credentials? The bitlocker key is in the TPM. It's not something a human can enter.

>Also, the whole scenario you depict is quite unreasonable to expect of a default install - which is exactly what is being talked about.

I'm confused. Are you referring to the scenario of the Windows install with the bitlocker key in the TPM, or the scenario of the evil maid attack? The former is already how Windows works by default, and the latter is precisely the scenario that helloooooooo was talking about, so I'm not sure which one you're calling unreasonable.

'sz' for 'ß' is sometimes used to make things roundtrip-proof in capslock, e.g. on military stencils. HTML calls it 'szlig'. Also, some use "Esszet" as the name of the character. But all are wrong in that ß isn't a ligature of s and z, it is a ligature of s and s. The shape of the character stems from the fact that in fractur writing and even some grotesk fonts, 's' at the end of a word was written 's', while 's' within a word was written 'ſ'. Thus the end of a word like Fuss was written Fuſs, giving a ligature of Fuß. No 'z' anywhere.
As far I remember (I used these tools extensively at the time), Borland C++ was the bigger, more complete and more powerful package. It was basically the professional version while Turbo C++ was the hobbyist one.
Google allows you to enter UPS or USPS tracking numbers directly through search
Googling 'USPS tracking number' or 'UPS tracking number' places a widget on the search results page that allows you to directly enter a UPS or USPS tracking number. You think this is in good faith, when you could just spend 0.2 seconds to click the link right below the widget to go right to the official website to do it more directly? I bet Google scrapes the tracking number & uploads the tracking data directly to the Megacluster to further train the Grid so it Can Serve You Better (TM)
If I may rephrase it a little less damaging to BMW- they decided to make all cars with heated seats. But if someone didn’t want to buy that functionality they had a software method to enable or disable it. Since the feature is already there they gave their dealers a way to upsell it to the consumers.

It’s just bad experience all around, particularly for an expensive car like bmw. I can understand if a penny pinching car company does it, but bmw should have just gone ahead and made heated seats default in all their cars, much classier and would have generated a lot of good will.
Serviced by a professional, mind you. Good luck fixing anything on a modern car yourself.
We have special closed cubicles which aren't assigned to anyone on every floor (I don't know their name in English) which can be booked if you want isolation but they're in such demand that they're often unavailable.
> If they ever decided to follow the law to the letter, most of the Internet would have to disconnect the EU

It's worth noting that it's the US that would be isolated here, not the EU.

A very large number of other non-EU countries have implemented/are currently implementing extremely similar legislation to the GDPR, including Brazil, Israel, South Korea, Argentina, Canada, Japan, India, New Zealand, Indonesia, etc.

If the world eventually splits into "privacy-required" vs "privacy-optional" internets, the US will be one of few major countries in the latter camp. Yes, clearly the US-based internet is a large chunk, but long-term isolating the US internet entirely from most of the rest of the world will have a meaningful impact.

The EU has an list of countries whose current protections they officially recognize as already equivalent to the GDPR here: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/inte...

"Webb’s image covers a patch of sky approximately the size of a grain of sand held at arm’s length by someone on the ground"

Disabling secure boot is one thing you should be able to do with hardware you own. Of course that's not a good idea if you want to run a non-Windows OS in a secure manner. Installing your own CA cert should also be possible. That's what we do at work with current UEFI implementations.
That depends on what kind of exoplanet atmospheres we find out there:

I think that it’s weird to aggregate salaries like this without taking into account that there is a huge amount of variance between companies.

For concrete companies, it’s easy to look up salaries in Glassdoor etc. and you can see that FAANG pays much better than this, even in Germany. Smaller companies on the other hand probably often pay worse than this.
Not in a way that is obvious to me. I'm sure you can work around it but if you just want to boot a live image and run an installer, ubuntu works and not a whole lot of other distributions do (because their installers don't support secure boot). I assume this is because of how much of a PITA it is to get certified.
When a comment leads with a provable falsehood, that "the" COVID vax (already a rampant simplification) "only" reduces risk of a bad case, and that, by implication, there's no reduction in transmission or reduction in duration or reduction in severity of mild cases, there's not much charity to be given.

Using your analogy, it's like if someone questioned the claimed efficiency of solar panels "given the Earth is flat after all". It shows a fundamental divergence from observed fact and science.

Why would VW lock the feature if they’re not making any money from unlocking it? Aren’t the companies that make these devices undercutting VW by unlocking features for less than what VW charges?
Yes an attacker still could. BitLocker is handled within Microsoft binaries in the windows EFI partition. I believe it is specifically bootmgr.efi.

You can still chain load up windows on KVM at this point, however getting the Windows partition decrypted may be difficult and requires faking up a few TPM measurements.

It's not just a Western thing. The likes of Goenka have made the case for Vipassana meditation as a universally beneficial secular practice compatible with a variety of religious beliefs and amenable to scientific study in India too. This approach inevitably attracts more attention and new adherents than more longstanding cultural traditions, rules and suttas.

I asked a friendly volunteer outside the Global Vipassana Centre (which emphasises the secular universal nature of its meditation practices, but also contains holy relics of the Buddha) how often he personally meditated. He paused for a moment, looked a bit sheepish and then said "not very often".

That’s a common argument; but in Linux these are reported differently.

So “used ram” from the OS perspective cannot be reused as filesystem caches.

I doubt they’re increasing performance either as the overall performance of such a system is so low.

it’s also hard to argue increased performance when your app could have instead fit in L3 cache.

A lot of people are defending Uber against taxi, based on the fact that the service is better.

But the important thing to remember is that we were in this situation because the lobbying of Taxi companies was doing the same thing as Uber previously and this is why we are in this situation in the first place.

And compared to its beginning, you can see that the service and prices provided by degraded a lot in last years now that they are in a kind of dominant position!

So, in my opinion, everyone should reprove such a behavior. Ensuring that our leaders can't be corrupted like that by lobbyist is the only way out of problematic situations like that.

What's the relation between this tutorial and the "hands on rust" book? Overlapping content or contains bits and pieces from the book?
I have only abstract advice, but it's important advice. The thing that a lot of people miss when choosing a topic is that it has to be not just something that you're excited about working on but also something that you love reading about. Because situating your work in terms of the existing literature is a very large part of a research degree (and also will help you do good work, presumably).

It is a very different and seemingly weird approach. It's almost like writing SQL queries for your game world (e.g. "find all entities with a Flying component and attach them a WooshSound component). A clever memory layout makes these queries super fast.

It makes separation of concerns very natural. Different parts/layers of the game, like inputs, AI, sounds, graphics, effects and animations can be coded separately. You don't end up with "god class" for player's object that does a bit of everything. You have player entity that has components attached, and each system operates on its own set of components.

I can't really do it justice in a comment. It's a quite different approach, so it's not directly comparable. It's like OOP vs Rust's traits. ECS happens to match Rust's memory model and traits incredibly well.

The conclusions drawn from that 3-year longitudinal nutrition survey are questionable. There does not appear to be any attempt to correct for seasonal energy expenditure changes. Ideally, you'd like to see some questions regarding activity level by season as well as energy intake. It's a perfectly reasonable alternative hypothesis that men are eating more in the sunnier seasons because they're doing more outdoor work. It's also possible the people answering these surveys are not accurately weighing and logging their meals, as those numbers in all cases are suspiciously low, but that wouldn't necessarily affect the relative changes as long as they're equally wrong in all seasons.
