The lawsuit would also create a paper trail that you can use to exonerate yourself in the future.

Thanks to the tragedy of a common name in my country, I’ve had to petition multiple jurisdictions to procure paperwork for a very similar reason.

Only became a necessity when applying for a job and being asked, once the background check came back for someone who had not only the same name but also birthdate 700 miles away if I had been convicted of extortion and blackmail.

How that had never come up before I hit my late thirties is anyone’s guess, since the conviction was recent enough to get someone looking more closely, but not so long ago that again I’m surprised that moment was the first anyone had asked me about it after doing a background check.

Long story short, a few letters to the jurisdictions in question and $500 worth of help from a local attorney and I soon had official papers saying “No, the Bob Loblaw applying for your job is not THAT Bob Loblaw we threw the book at.”
Yeah, addressed upthread. Acting like there's some abstract dialogue to have here hides the ball. This isn't a common viewpoint, there's a reason why, and it's not because people arent aware
Sometimes my friends from other fields will ask me to explain/draw out how a computer works

Its much harder than I thought

I started off explaining binary and how groups of wires can be used to represent numbers

Lost them somewhere around explaining gates/adders

I think its so difficult because there are so many layers of abstraction and you really need some basic electronics knowledge

> that's before taking into consideration the fact that it was filmed and put online for people to gawk at.

That's the thing for me. If you are truly doing a "random act of kindness", then you are not planning it, you are not filming it, and you are not putting it online. You are also being respectful: some people would be put off or offended for accepting certain kinds of help, so you probably should ask for consent.

If you're filming it, and intend to post it somewhere, then you have some sort of ulterior motive to doing it. And I don't really find credible people who claim to be posting them in order to "spread awareness" or inspire other people to do these sorts of things.

I wonder how much advertising revenue this sort of thing generates for someone with this guy's viewership...

The amount of visa fraud that exists is just mind blowing, and there are different flavors for every visa category that exists. The amount of staff assigned to process visa applications is small and have to make a decision which has weight on their home country. Outsourcing the process as much as possible allows fraud patterns to be caught more quickly and slowing the process reduces the incentives for bad actors to push their luck, esp if they don’t get to hold their passport during the process.

I say this as somebody that’s pro-immigration. The system sucks but it’s doing a service for the destination country and legit applicants.

If a country is going to just stamp “approved” on most people, they wouldn’t bother with having consular staff process applications, they’d offer visa on arrival or visa waivers.

I didn't paint it as a disaster scenario. Having no emergency funds doesn't mean one will starve.

Just to give some examples of a recession being worse that one expects:

- I might need to sell my 4-bedroom house and move into a smaller house because I can't afford mortgage;

- I might need to skip vacations this year because I got a pay cut;

- I have to sell my car and use public transport because I need money and gas is too expensive anyway;

IMO these are situations people are not generally anticipating or prepared for.

I think we'd have to file that under "reasons to be optimistic" but it's a grim entry. A full-scale second civil war may be pretty damn near impossible for the reasons you mention, but on every other front than physical violence that war is being fought, actively, today - and as Dobbs has shown, it really can affect one's daily life.

We've seen plenty of street violence too: destabilizing and long-lived amounts of it, for example in the case of the CHOP zone in Seattle or the insurrection on Jan 6. You don't have to go looking to get affected.

EDIT: my Dobbs comment is going to seem glib and vulnerable to the obvious counter that courts make unfavorable rulings all the time - by definition one side loses. I meant that you can trace a pretty clear line from the abnormally intense political and cultural struggle that's been going on since ~2016 and the conditions that led the supreme court to make that decision (and make it in the way that they did.)
This is an odd response given the article calls at Google as having the gold standard for this, and I'm not sure there's any equivalent at all at MS? They push Flutter too
Yeah it would be cool to not exist, and it’s really cool to just give up on the future of our species, and to go around declaring this worldview at any opportunity, especially when some sucker specifically asks what makes you optimistic - that’s the coolest time to spring your teenage anti-humanism on them.

I've been hiring on Upwork since 2007. I love the idea of being able to hire people with particular skillsets for a short time. For example, we had a unique issue with elasticsearch. We hired someone on Upwork with a Ph.D. and wrote a book on it. For a few hundred dollars, he was able to resolve our issue in a few hours.

For every good experience, we have had about four bad experiences. The Upwork marketplace is filled with accounts pretending to be in North America and using fake photos. If you start looking at the profile pics on Upwork, you'll see they have the fake teeth from thispersondoesnotexist.

We've accidentally hired some of these fake people. Not only can they code, but they are pretty good. Upwork usually freezes the contractor's account when they try to get their first payout and fail the identity verification. Then we get a request from the contractor to pay by Paypal. It's a mess.

Here's the chat response from one of the contractors when they were found out:

> OK, let me explain.
> To be honest, i am based on China.
> But i can complete the task really well.
> But i can't work with high rate on upwork as Chinese.
> I am really sorry for that.
> You can confirm me through video call.
> Anyway, i am really good developer in Bootstrap 4 and css3, Html5 and etc.
> you can check my result.

Upwork should be doing more to fix this. They are very aware of the issue. I once emailed their old CEO about the issue and got a reply from an assistant offering an account credit.

I wish there was a good alternative!

As a dev that uses Unity on a daily basis, here is my perspective.

If this was simply a matter of "Unity wants to do ads better" and they purchased an adtech company, I doubt there would be much discussion about it. That is not what happened. ironSource is not just an adtech company but a company that has built and distributed software that has been classified as malware by Sophos and Microsoft Essentials[1].

While this may be an overdramatic take, once ironSource is fully integrated with Unity and we update to the latest LTS version that includes ironSource software, I expect that we will want to virus scan our own executables built through Unity. I do not trust ironSource nor do I trust any software that integrates with it.

Now, putting the malware concern aside, I also see this as a step in the wrong direction for Unity. There are MANY uses for Unity that are not games, that will never have ads, and that will never utilize anything from this acquisition. The concern here is that recent updates of Unity have made some of these features such that you cannot disable them.

To me, this is yet another poor decision by the Unity team. As an aside, I recently started looking into their freshly released new Analytics platform and it is an absolute mess of a release. There are massive oversights in the implementation and bugs that prevent workarounds to those oversights.

Unity is not looking like software worth betting your company's future on. At best, it is looking more like prototyping software before using a better engine.

One big parameter that has changed is birthrates. It is possible that given the existence of raw resources, the simple fact that the population was growing at a certain rate may have provided a lower bound on economic growth.
Okay, and is there an ecosystem that makes it trivial to find, buy and import such assets? How big and well designed is that store?

"You can technically do the same thing if you squint" misses the point.
certainly, and you've chosen your blonde, blue-eyed partner attentively, but those traits are recessive, so when you find that your children will not have them you want to abort and try again.

slippery-sloping the ideas of control very quickly leads to nightmarish scenarios, of course slopes tend not to be slippery just because we fear they may be, but sometimes the slipperiness of a slope will seem not a problem until the right social movement comes along and takes advantage of it, best to be prepared is the pessimist's take.

If I read it correctly it's more like a 1.8 bn hole.

They are counting 600m of their own token, which already had only 170m or whatever of market cap, which presumably now is absolutely worthless.

I don't mean worthless in a conceptual sense like all crypto, but this specific brand of made up money is based on the trust of a bankrupt lender. Nobody is buying that and counting it as 600m of asset is absurd.

It's like writing yourself a bunch of IOUs and claiming it gives you wealth.
> It's not that we're naive youngsters who don't know any better.

Sorry if it came out that way, that wasn't my intent. Fake jobs were not a thing that I encountered when entering the market, but I almost certainly would have fallen for anything that wasn't utterly incompetent.

> We just often don't have a choice.

This isn't new. I grew up very poor, and it wasn't until my mid-30's that I had things paid off and could start thinking about what economic security might feel like someday.

What's new is that middle-class young people are starting to have that experience, too.

Yeah it's pretty much your best option (C or C++) when writing web apps for things like routers or for game consoles for example, which is the kind of use case I'm talking about. Your work here makes doing that so much easier and safer, which is really important considering how many routers are being exploited to be malicious these days.

It might take a little while to catch on in those use cases but I've been waiting for someone to nail the implementation for a while. It's hardly a surprise that you of all people got it down, I've been admiring your work for quite some time.

So how about those blog posts in Mayan Hieroglyphics?
> Since Godot can't really go the console route

Wait, why not? I thought it was a deliberate choice on the devs' part not to prioritize native support for consoles, not something that's actually impossible (since obviously other third party engines do it).
Yes. I can achieve line rate throughput (940mbps measured tcp throughput) with a USB 3.0 gigabit dongle on one side, and the built-in ethernet on the other.

Out of bos without tuning, it's more like 750mbps maximum throughput. Most of the optimizations are pinning IRQs and RX buffers to particular CPU cores, otherwise it'll max out one core and limit the throughput.

I'm routing and forwarding, as well as stateful firewalling with nftables.
Ads are malware. The reason ad networks use the same techniques as other forms of malware is that they're both trying to make the computer behave in ways that its owner doesn't want.

> Selling art requires the right contacts, even today

I was talking to a friend of mine who is a reasonably famous and financially successful modern impressionist painter about the market selling his oil paintings. It’s more than just the right contacts, the entire thing sounds more awful than used car sales, honestly. Lots of game playing, politics, back stabbing, and scamming. Just asking him what I figured would be a straightforward question of what kind of percentage commission galleries charge led to about on hour long conversation that I could barely follow.

The short version seemed to be that if you’re naive or trusting, you’re screwed.

I'm not sure about DDB, but I know in AWS in general building a new service does not give you credit by default. It's not like the shit Uber promoted: Yeh! We have 8000 services. Look how great we are! In fact, people usually question if someone proposes to create a new service. Working Backwards (i.e., solving real user problems) and Invent and Simplify are indeed two powerful leadership principles. And of course, the sheer amount of work involved in setting up a new service is so much that people have to think twice between starting a new service.
I don't quite understand "provisioning and longevity issues, Rocky is winning."

#1 surprised me, in a good way. Propping someone up before they're in dire straits is a great thing to do for someone. Identifying the need might be a little harder, but digging someone out of a shallow hole is easier and less costly than digging them out of a deep hole, and I bet that person will have a much better time not having to be in that deeper hole in the first place.

This reminded me how some municipalities with homelessness issues will often spend homeless-related funds toward subsidizing living expenses for people who are not homeless, but are living on the edge and would end up losing their homes if not for some extra help. It's much easier and better (and cost-effective!) to help keep someone in a home, than it is to wait until they are on the streets before helping them.
In addition to the problems mentions by yongjik, even with the current system, very little software is even aware that the same codepoint should be rendered differently in different languages (返す needs to be rendered differently in every CJK locale) which often results in websites and programs using Chinese fonts for Japanese text (even if you've configured your language as Japanese). Having stroke breakdowns would not make this situation better because there are multiple ways to render the same stroke description and there aren't really systematic rules for how to correctly represent the Japanese (or Taiwanese or Korean) version of a character -- it's generally for historical reasons. If you were to try to actually represent the characters faithfully (in an attempt to avoid making every country unhappy with the way you've butchered their language), many characters would become unusable for text searching because the same "character" (from the perspective of a CJK native) would have a completely different representation in a way that a computer could not be able to identify as being the same (even a character as simple as 言う would have this issue).

I dread to think what an enormous mess would result if every character was represented as a build-it-yourself instruction manual rather than allowing font authors to correctly represent the characters. This is also ignoring that (depending on the font style), the apparent strokes for a character can change between fonts in the same language (this is because the computer font stroke style and the written font stroke style can be different) -- by putting stroke decisions in the encoding you're introducing a layering violation since fonts should be deciding how characters are styled, not encoding format committees.

Also nobody in China, Japan, nor Korea would switch to an encoding system so incredibly inefficient that more strokes results in more bytes being necessary to store the character (they already compromised with having 3-byte UTF-8 characters when JIS, GB, and Big5 all only required 2 -- and Japan was basically forced to compromise on Han Unification). This would've resulted in the failure of Unicode's mission to be the One True Encoding Format.
See my other comment on this thread - even if you agree with the politics behind this, the better outcome would be to either auction them off to recoup the taxpayer money spent on them or to keep them and merely forbid new ones from being built (as the ones already build can at least serve some people who happen to own an electric vehicle).

The problem is that the people pushing this are pushing it from a perspective of a stupid knee-jerk reaction such as “screw electric cars” as opposed to a smart, economics-based decision, and so are the voters (doing the smart economic thing will bore voters, unlike screaming “fuck electric cars!!!” which will give you plenty of votes despite leaving the voters worse off in the end). The bill is designed for shock value, not sane, long-term benefit.
The way you phrased your comment, it seems like you don't want an answer. But rather you seem to want reddit style validation, and to make a statement. There are Palestinians who are citizens of Israel, almost 2 million. And they have all the same rights as normal israelis, the exact same, with one exception: They are not obligated to serve in the military. However many do.

The Palestinians in Gaza and The West Bank are governed by islamist terror organizations, and they are not Israelis. There is no apartheid, I tell you this as an Israeli who lived for a long time in Haifa which is mixed city of arabs and jews

Obviously if it smells, you should flush. But in my experience, my urine in the toilet bowl never smells outside of when I eat asparagus. Perhaps it is a sign to drink more water?
