Obama ran on the promise to end domestic spying by the NSA, and as president he would have had the authority to do it at any time, but once he got into office he expanded the domestic spying program. The most simple explanation is that he lied through his teeth and that he had no intention of stopping it.

It's also possible that once he got elected he was convinced that it was so worthwhile that it was worth violating his campaign promises, but what worries me most is the possibility that Obama honestly believed, and still believes, that it was a unacceptable violation of our constitutional rights and that he only had to be shown a sample of the data collected on him and his family to get him to fall in line and approve whatever the NSA wanted.

"If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him." The NSA has so much data on us that they could blackmail anyone, and could likely plant incriminating data as well. That power exists for them to use at any time. If they're willing to use it in order to keep that power over anyone they see as an enemy then it's possible that no president or politician will ever be able to do anything to stop America's domestic spying program.

Recently I've been much more pleased by the "Unreasonable Effectiveness of Ninja Plus A Few Trivial Scripts".

A raw Ninja file is verbose but easy to read and understand, and there is basically no magic happening behind the scenes (well, except for "deps = gcc", but that's minor). Any action that's too complicated to go directly in the Ninja file goes to a "rule command \ command = ${command}" that just runs a python or shell script.

The only thing I'd like to add to my setup would be "Ninja with glob support", but again that can be handled in a few lines of Python that spit out another chunk of .ninja rules so it's not really a blocker.
Yea exactly. In that phrasing you're putting an affirmation to the original question. Just "對" doesn't work.

I've been using the beta test of this model for a little while, and plan to use it in academic applications as well. It's really remarkable in its performance and coherence: in my personal experience it's easier and faster to get closer to an intended image than it is with DALL-E. Of course the big difference is the lack of censorship/safeguards added to its operation (and the lack of a fee). If & when the model weights are released (or leaked) I think this model will be used far and wide for everything from art to political messaging to pornography. If not this model, then the next one.

Interesting times.

Just don't buy nonstick. It's not necessary and there are better alternatives. Use cast iron (vintage/used pans are cheap and great!), carbon steel (Blanc Creatives), enameled cast iron (Le Creuset), or stainless steel (All-Clad or Viking) . I cook eggs in all of these and it's not difficult. You don't need nonstick for anything... it's not more convenient at all.

It's worse than that. It seems to be a Kubernetes defect around merge keys; using the port number and not the protocol + port number. https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/39188 But it is possible to create Kubernetes services that work correctly serving UDP and TCP on the same port; look at any old kube-dns/coredns service, for example. Indeed, I can easily create such a service for my HTTP proxy (sending TCP 443, TCP 80, and UDP 443 to my L7 proxy), but the cloud provider's software explicitly rejects it because it can't possibly work. (Meanwhile, going into their UI and modifying their object behind the k8s reconciler's back works fine, but not well enough that I trust it to announce HTTP/3 support.) I think they got spooked by a bug, but didn't realize it's a corner case and not something that happens 100% of the time. I hope it will be fixed, because I'm pretty sure they added UDP support to load balancers specifically for HTTP/3.

He was prosecuted for aiding copyright infringement for writing a software that can share any files including copyright protected files.

He won the case at supreme court but it costs a lot. Many Japanese free software developers lost their interest for publishing the software may lead to the arrest from police who don't understand any of the technology behind it.

> Android seems to be a lot more lenient than iOS with requirements.

I think the reverse is true. The current version, iOS 15, works on the iPhone 6S, a seven-year-old phone.

Even if modern versions of Android did work on such old hardware (and I don't know, maybe it does), Android phones simply don't get those updates because they are deprecated much faster.

So to repeat most of the other comments here, what you're looking for is an iPhone.

I don't even think they're that expensive, the iPhone SE starts at $429 new, and less if you buy a refurbished model, which still comes with a brand new battery.
Just because someone (whether it is Rowling, Newton, or someone else) had done something racist does not necessarily make all of their works to be racist.

You should write non-racist curricula (if possible), but the way to do this is to avoid making statements that discriminate against someone, rather than to avoid the use of anyone's name or works or anything else just because they are racist or are affiliated with someone or were in the past racist or because the words are similar or for other reasons.

However, I do think that it is sensible to avoid making assumptions of knowing something that you do not know, and to make the text clear if some part of it is possibly unclear. (Avoiding mentioning Harry Potter and J.K.Rowling probably helps with clarification, but avoiding mentioning Isaac Newton probably is worse and makes it less clear, I think.)

In the case of hangman, I had generally just avoided to draw a picture of hanging or anything and just mention, if you tried a specified number of wrong letters before trying all of the correct letters, then you lose; if you entered all of the correct letters before that then you will win.

Actually, this works in Safari with its new "Live Text" feature. https://www.apple.com/safari

I just confirmed that searching for "hour" will highlight that term in the image in addition to any regular text.[1] Though, I first had to click on the image, which is apparently what triggers the OCR; after that searching found the term even if I changed or released the input focus.

This is my first time using this feature (your post reminded me that I had recently read about it), and my first time using Safari since I don't know when, so there may be more caveats to the behavior I'm not aware of.

[1] I used the archive.ph version of the full article. Live Text didn't seem to work when viewing the image in isolation via your link above.

GPT3 write me an article about NSA's Warrantless Wiretaps in a format to get people angry:

The NSA's warrantless wiretapping program is a blatant violation of our privacy rights. The program allows the NSA to collect the communications of Americans without a warrant, and without any suspicion of wrongdoing.

This program is a direct assault on our Fourth Amendment rights, and it must be stopped.

The NSA claims that the program is needed to fight terrorism, but there is no evidence that it has actually done so. In fact, the program has been repeatedly ruled to be illegal by federal courts.

It is time for Congress to step in and put an end to this program. We cannot allow the NSA to continue to violate our constitutional rights.

I'm confused what you're even arguing against.

The article specifically uses the phrasing "uses off-the-shelf parts that cost around $25". It doesn't say anything about the cost to develop, it doesn't say anything even slightly misleading or ambiguous about this.

Like, what should the article have done instead? How could it possibly be clearer and more explicit about what $25 referred to here?
By latency, I guess you mean its launching speed? I like urxvt for that. I started using it back when I was on a netbook. So much quicker to launch than gnome-terminal or konsole. I didn't even need its daemon functionality which should be even quicker to open up windows.

On throughput, I guess you mean its refresh rate? Among its many options, I remember there's one about skipping drawing content when it's coming in faster than urxvt is able to draw it, in order to not slow down the program writing to it. There may be more options that affect the refresh rate.

I think the cost per fighter was something like $2B which to me seems absurd as once the initial research and test plane were created the other planes should be relatively cheap as they are making them off of well tested plans. So either major grift by the manufacturer or something else is getting that money. And the cost per plane keeps getting higher every year which doesn't make sense.

The sanctions apply directly to the protocol and it’s code, and this is the issue. It is not applying to persons, or criminal actions.

It would be like sanctioning the Matrix protocol and it’s code because it has facilitated terrorist communication. Obviously terrorists planning a bombing over Matrix protocol are engaging in criminal behavior, but this doesn’t mean the protocol itself is also a criminal entity.

Forgive my ignorance, but what are big differences between terminal emulators that push people to one vs another?

Does making use of terminal multiplexer, like tmux or GNU screen, make some of those differences less important?

I mostly use whatever terminal emulator is on my system. Currently that's xfce4-terminal. But I use GNU screen so I only ever have one terminal window open and I almost exclusively use the keyboard shortcuts for GNU screen instead of terminal shortcuts.
So? How does that contradicts anything I wrote? Freedom of expression is name of a group in Nepal pushing for their things. America is utterly irrelevant (but actually public photography in America allows quite a lot).

Note also how those permits literally never state "your intentions must have pure interest in place itself" as person I responded to assumes. Instead, they tend to be commercial and protecting monetary value of the place. Once you pay for permit you do whatever you please with it, unless it divides between commercial and non commercial. And they never limit platform - there are rules around flash or noise or time spend etc - you are quite clear on them from the start. Which is literally what the disagreement in article is about.

Note also I disagree primary with nonsensical comments that projects their outrage over media not targeted at them existing and young people putting serious effort in them then with Nepal authorities trying to trial-and-error rules that will work.

The “article” is a transcript of sections of the video. Removing the culture war bit about Galileo being cancelled, we have:

“It’s not a philosophical question whether we live in an environment where objects are floating around that are representing extraterrestrial technologies. We just need to use our telescopes and find out. […] Once I realized that we found an object from a technological origin that was produced elsewhere, I would not seek approval from anyone else. I don’t need likes on twitter. I just want to know what it is.”

He doesn’t seem to be saying “it’s aliens”, but rather “If it’s aliens, I want to know — it’s not a matter of faith, if we find evidence of it, it’ll be true”. His use of “Once I realized” is confusing, but I believe he’s speaking in the hypothetical that aliens are confirmed.

There is, of course, a massive leap from “an object from outside the solar system hit Earth and was very strong” to “because this object was very strong it might have been made by aliens”. I also don’t see any reason why the fragments they’re looking for should be magnetic.
This seems a reasonable question to me, not having read the article. IIRC from grade school days, only a few metallic elements are magnetic. Iron, nickel, cobalt, and some rare earth metals. That was a long time ago and doubtless oversimplified, but please do enlighten me why it would be expected to be magnetic?

It seems like they must still be assuming it's largely made of Iron.
I understand your unique perspective regarding long-term stability but that risk isn't limited to 401Ks as it extends to a person's overall investing strategy whether in stocks, bonds, cash, precious metals, real estate, crypto, etc. I use a 401k as one element in my overall investment portfolio but that portfolio is diversified and layered with overlapping time horizons. I reassess my strategy yearly and update the risk profile and time horizons as needed based on my age, life plans and market volatility.

For me, a 401K was good way to optimize the 'very long-term' part of my portfolio because the 401K is mechanism to allow that portion of your investments to grow pre-tax. Of course, when I was in my 20s I put very little (or zero) into the bucket labeled 'very long-term.' By the time I was 40, I was putting the maximum amount allowed in my 401k every year because it basically worked out like a tax discount. However, the cost of gaining that tax discount is locking up those funds behind a penalty for early withdrawal. The chances I might need that money sooner must be weighed as a cost/benefit analysis.

But that's really no different than many investment vehicles which have varying degrees of liquidity (T-Bills, bonds, real-estate, startup, etc.) The market prices the assets accordingly and it's not hard to construct a portfolio to match any risk/reward and time horizon you think is best for you.
