The 道德经 was not written in the last century, and the ancient pronunciation is only approximately known. Yes it's written in Modern Standard Chinese/pinyin as "Dào Dé Jīng" but the text has existence in the western world older than the Modern Standard Chinese language, certainly longer than modern Chinese orthography.

Looking at Zhengzhang reconstruction of the title, for instance, we get the pronuciation /l'uːʔ tɯːɡ keːŋ/ (I don't know old Chinese phonology at all, I'm just working from wiktionary - please forgive any errors/take with a grain of salt). I don't see any particular reason for English-speakers to use the Modern Standard Chinese pinyin orthography/pronunciation to write terms that come from a considerably older way of speaking. (I say this as someone learning Classical + Middle Chinese using Middle-Chinese pronunciation).

Okay one possible reason is that it might be seen as good if the main inheritors of the tradition (the modern Chinese state+people) get given 'ownership' of it, and that outsiders speak using their preferred terminology/pronunciation. But I'm not personally on board with that, any more than I'd insist that people pronounce Shakespeare in American English.

You're more right than you know. The big German brands are iterating towards having chunks of their build completely outsourced. The initial design and branding is centrally owned, but if you've bought in the last 10 years, you might well have a physical object actually assembled by Magna Steyr.
This "UPS" solution is missing a key block though. A charging/BMS circuit for the battery. This would otherwise rely on having to manually attach a car battery trickle charger (don't even get me started on 20after4's comment regarding battery composition choice...) every so often. But then using the original router 12v wall wart as the primary PSU would be unlikely to handle charging the battery as well.

A cleaner solution would involve something more like:
Mains supply->14-20v/5-10A rated PSU (such as a meanwell unit) -> BMS (battery management system) for chosen battery chemistry -> LiFePo4 battery pack (in a 3s config to give 14.4v nominal output, and however many times parallel to give the desired wattage) -> then feed into the circuit provided in the OP and then you have a fully self contained UPS for the devices covered. Though I might add a 5v/2A buck converter or two for being able to charge some USB devices as well...

Right. The business owner choses whether they want to participate in any review. For each platform the choose to particpate they print a onetime code on the receipt, valid only for a day or 2. Only using such code a review can be posted. That should solve most problems with fake reviews by outsiders. But how to prevent fake reviews produced by the business themselves? That sounds harder to solve.

Well, in practice even the proposal with the review tokens wouldn't work for years. How would a small business get them integrated into their cash register? More complicated than putting a sticker "Rate us on trip advisor" to the front door.
We have dubbed that door vulnerability "cp4t hangar" and the ignition vulnerability "5crew 6r1ver" and have registered them in the common vulnerability database for credit and publicity purposes.

Being UK-based, I would use PriceSpy to filter on all the relevant criteria it supports. For your MP3 player example that narrows it down to 6 devices. That's a small enough number that I can then just skim specs for each, and/or read the manuals.
There is also a tradeoff where every read from a CCD introduces a fixed amount of noise (called read noise), so there is a cost to making extremely short exposures. As a rule of thumb most individual exposures on a large telescope are ~20 minutes or so for an image where the plan is to stack many exposures. But sometimes different fields have unique constraints, and obviously JWST is a different beast than ground based telescopes.

It was a common name for all foreigners, not just Germans. During a certain era, German traders were the most common foreigners in Slavic lands, so the name stuck with Germans.
Sadly it doesn't seem to have made it to YouTube. The character was called Dottor Frattale, by comedian Walter Fontana https://it.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Fontana

If you read Italian, I'd recommend tracking down his short comedy novel L'Uomo di Marketing e la Variante al Limone, which satirizes the milanese advertising industry of the '90s (but I bet it's still mostly like that, lol).
English Premier League had a fantastic rebrand: where they selected a nice color set that stood out (it was "their" color set), new font, new visual style guide including new animations, new logo (that causes some controversy but it prints well). They also made a piece of music that makes you feel that you just watched something great/fantastic/historic - even if the match itself wasnt good.

Most of the time modernizing the logotypes and fonts to make them simpler does not work, but here someone came with a coherent strategy that simply looks good and is distinct enough.

> Why spend so much effort on such a relatively useless feature unless there is another reason for it?

Because it's not only Secure Boot really. It's just one part of a larger set of firmware hardening methods called Device Guard (since 2016), which is also a part of Secured Core. (which was mentioned in the article).

> Bootloader attacks are neither common, nor does it seem likely that "secure boot" keeps out a really determined attacker.

Because an increasing amount of PC's have Secure Boot enabled and few attacks really are conducted by a "really determined attacker".
It was, to be fair, a standard platformer with no innovative mechanics that was mostly known due to being one of the only ones on the personal computer at the time which lacked the hardware acceleration to normally make it possible.

The Franchise has no identity other than the characters involved.

An this unfortunately also makes a remaster of VOY and DS9 very unlikely. I also read somewhere that they used more digital effects and 3D renders which makes a remaster even more difficult, as it would basically require to update or even redo them.

It absolutely will. One of the big advances in the past two decades was the discovery of exoplanets, and at this point we've discovered enough of them that we can get reasonable constraints on their frequency (along with sketchier constraints on Earth-like planets). That alone removed one of the major uncertainties in the Drake equation.

JWST will be able to make far better measurements of exoplanet atmospheres than any other telescope, so this should start to constrain how many Earth-like planets have atmospheres with biological signatures. These constraints will remove the next big uncertainty in the Drake equation.
The lack of transparency over the definition of 'secured-core' is disturbing.
All of those seem like reasonable points to me too.

Hi all,

I am Soren, one of the founders of mineiros.io - the company that invented GitHub as Code.

GitHub as Code is a comprehensive Terraform blueprint with fully automated and pre-configured GitHub Actions pipelines to enable everyone in your organization to manage on- and off-boarding of users, repositories, branch protections, secrets, and more through code.

We invented GitHub as Code because we've seen organizations struggling when handling GitHub on scale.

I'd love to hear some feedback on the idea and whether or not you think GitHub as Code could be helpful for you also.

Also, please consider our product introduction blog post on medium for details https://blog.mineiros.io/product-introduction-github-as-code...

Lots of interest.

As a US citizen, you still have to file taxes. But can save a bunch depending on your situation.
I don't think it's worth to be outraged, logically. After all, if the manager can stay calm and all, that means he's close to attain (or one step closer to attain) buddhahood, which is a very difficult thing to attain.
> Mindfulness, as it was practiced for most of its history in Asia, was a very elite practice reserved only for advanced monastics.

I don't think that's true; or at least, it depends on what you mean by "mindfulness". That claim is made in the context of vipassana, which can be an advanced practice. But mindfulness as such is one of the spokes of the Wheel of Dharma; it's simply paying attention, and it's a necessary pre-requisite to doing anything right. You can't maintain any kind of morality, for example, if you don't really know what's going on around you.

McMindfulness is not a trend that I admire.
There is no need for each location to deploy each and every type of production unit: each region has its own geography and preferences.

Those benefiting from huge potential for hydro, offshore wind or solar (deserts...) are at an advantage.
Those benefiting from a low production time-profile correlation with most other ones also are blessed.

Those totally unable to deploy anything probably don't need huge amounts of energy or are rich to the point of already importing it (is there a counter-example?).

The feature isn’t “locked” — it’s just a configuration option on one of the control modules in the car based on the original build configuration. Keep in mind that a specific module might be used on many different models of car.

Why not just have the rear speaker outputs enabled at all times even on vehicles that do t have rear speakers? I suspect it’s as simple as VW not wanting to show the front/rear fader control for a vehicle where it isn’t applicable.

FWIW, this absolutely can be done yourself using VCDS or OBD 11 to update the module settings.

I suspect in this case the dealer wasn’t telling you the entire truth — it may be as simple as them not having an established procedure for this in house and wanting to just get you to go away.
> It's a defensive alliance, one that is designed to stop Russia doing exactly what its doing now.

NATO hasn't been a defensive alliance since the fall of the Soviet Union. Its role in the two Iraq wars, Libya and in the wars in the Balkans wars are proof that is not a defensive alliance. It has become a tool for US military hegemony.

> Russia does not get to invade, rape and slaughter innocent civilians just because it wants to.

Bogus bullshit. The idea that the Russian military see the rape and slaughter of innocent civilians as the way to get the cooperation and support of a population's which it sees as part of its Federation is nonsensical.
> still existing gravity towards the moon, which would be a constant additional force pulling you sideways

That would be why it's a cone not a cylinder, to line up the "subjective down", the sum of forces including lunar 1/6 g; with the direction that the ground is in.

Stopping would be an issue. But it looks like there is some accommodation for that in the form of a big "bathtub" at the bottom that could hold the water. IDK why there's so much water in the first place though.
You still are scaremongering.

Secured core is a class of device security specifically intended to be highly locked down.

From https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/dev...:

> Secured-core PCs provide protections that are useful against sophisticated attacks and can provide increased assurance when handling mission-critical data in some of the most data-sensitive industries, such as healthcare workers that handle medical records and other personally identifiable information (PII), commercial roles that handle high business impact and highly sensitive data, such as a financial controller with earnings data.

> For general purpose laptops, tablets, 2-in-1’s, mobile workstations, and desktops, Microsoft recommends using Security baselines for optimal configuration. For more info, see Windows security baselines.
Dutch is weird. I was interested to see whether 'dop' or 'erdop' meant something similar to cup, and the question is really just one of spacing.

I discovered actually 'dop' means something like 'shell'. So APPARENTLY eierdop all as one word means egg cup, but eier dop as two separate words means egg shell?
I stopped reading upon seeing at the very stop this “ Silicon Valley is the latest player in a history of Western appropriation of Buddhism”

I was very curious about the article. I am wondering if it treats ideas such as “hire fast fire fast” - In a way a concept related to the Buddhist ideas of detachment, or the opposite, “bing your whole self to work” which in a way seems contradictory - you have attachments, continue to have them even at work.

But it is a genuinely off putting sensation to see someone referring to cultural exchanges and transformations as “appropriation”. Adopting and transforming ideas is the bedrock of humanity. Opposing or denigrating this seems like a fundamentally evil thing to do. It feels anti human.
Think you are mixing things. I don't think people are actually "budhists", but instead have found something useful from meditating.

Sound/speech masking is incredibly effective. We had a trial system in part of our old office and in the area covered by the system, it felt natural but when you knew to listen for the reduction in perceived annoyance/disturbance, it was much lower.

If you had two compilers for the same language from different companies back in the 80s or 90s, the chances of them both successfully compiling the same codebase without any changes was slim to none. A bit like sharing SQL between Postgres, SQLite, SQL Server and Oracle nowadays.
It's worth thinking that the just-in-time supply chain so prevalent now is probably what allows the fast pace of change. In the 80s, you made a product, and needed to lock in supply contracts, warehousing, sales etc. There was so much inertia in those, you ended up wanting to keep your working product going without changing it.

For the folks down voting the parent post: Charles Babbage spent a considerable portion of his later life railing against street musicians. Street musicians, at the time, ran a sort of extortion scheme. They'd show up in the early morning hours outside your house and play loudly until you paid them to go away. So Babbage worked to try to pass legislation to ban street music (don't remember off the top of my head if he was successful).

And hurdy gurdies were a popular instrument for street musicians in Babbage's day.

What do you tell to the chronically ill?
My understanding is those are services various government departments can make use of. Notify being to send notifications to people, Pay to take payments, etc. These are basically SaaS offerings from GDS to over government departments.

The GOV.UK PaaS is a hosting platform for other government departments to host their own software in the GOV.UK managed platform (like a Heroku kind of thing).

They're investing more in their SaaS services (Notify, Pay, Forms, Prototyping Kit, etc) and deprecating their PaaS offering in favour of Kubernetes, which looks like it may be offered as a managed service for government departments to use. It reads to me like more of a v2 of the PaaS but it'll now be kube based rather than whatever homegrown thing it is at the moment.

Edit: as tnwhitwell pointed out below, the PaaS being deprecated uses CloudFoundry and isn't homegrown.
