This is not appropriate due to the tough situation Lebanese people are currently living, but your quote was in a very funny chinese bank robbery story :

There was this robbery in Guangzhou, the robber shouted to everyone: "All don't move, money belongs to the state, life belongs to you."

Everyone in the bank laid down quietly.

This is called "Mind Changing Concept --> Changing the conventional "way of thinking".

-------------------------------------------------

One lady lay on the table provocatively, the robber shouted at her "Please be civilized! This is a robbery and not a rape!"

This is called "Being Professional --> Focus only on what you are trained to do!"

-------------------------------------------------

When the robbers got back, the younger robber (MBA trained) told the older robber (who is only primary school educated), "Big bro, let's count how much we got", the older robber rebutted and said, "You very stupid, so much money, how to count, tonight TV will tell us how much we robbed from the bank!"

This is called "Experience --> nowadays experience is more important than paper qualifications!"

-------------------------------------------------

After the robbers left, the bank manager told the bank supervisor to call the police quickly. The supervisor says "Wait, wait wait, let's put the 5 million RMB we embezzled into the amount the robbers robbed".

This is called "Swim with the tide --> converting an unfavorable situation to your advantage!"

-------------------------------------------------

The supervisor says "It will be good if there is a robbery every month".

This is called "Killing Boredom --> Happiness is most important."

-------------------------------------------------

The next day, TV news reported that 100 million RMB was taken from the bank. The robbers counted and counted and counted, but they could only count 20 million RMB. The robbers were very angry and complained "We risked our lives and only took 20 million RMB, the bank manager took 80 million RMB with a snap of his fingers. It looks like it is better to be educated to be a thief!"

This is called "Knowledge is worth as much as gold !"

-------------------------------------------------

The bank manager was smiling and happy because his loss in the CINOPEC shares are now covered by this robbery.

This is called "Seizing the opportunity --> daring to take risks!"

-------------------------------------------------

Give a man a gun and he can rob a bank.

If you want a true browser there's always the option to move the current page from the in-app Safari View to the full browser.

In many cases I'd like to stay within the app. Those in-app Safari Webviews allows that. And if it is a website I'd like to browse in my usual, more permanent browsing evironment I always have th eoption to do so.

This two step approach is more useful to me than always opening links in the browser.
They’re poor, not stupid. They know what they need to survive. The absolute number of people “destroying their lives” in this manner is very small. This disconnected brand of pauperate paternalism is very degrading.

No, you pay the $750, export your data, then sue them to get your money back. In order to win you have to prove that you were damaged, and the easiest way to prove it is to present a receipt. Yes, filing the case costs a little money, and then you have to waste a day of your time at the courthouse, but afterwards you will have your money back, including court costs. Most importantly, however, is that the sting of it might actually get them to change their behavior.

The ideal outcome would be that they don’t appear in court, you get a default judgement, they ignore your written request to pay it, and then you visit their office with a sheriff and a local reporter or two to either get them to write a check or to seize some furniture. How many times do you think the CEO would be willing to read those news stories (and risk losing his own office furniture, because obviously you would start there) before they decide to let people sign into their expired accounts to export their passwords?

It’s not really about the money, it’s about forcing them to do the right thing.
Iirc you have to use the full cycle, and even that isn't guaranteed to work.
Yes, it is our fault for trusting them ultimately. Agreed
See, here's a better analysis of the question than the Economist's. I bet the people optimizing ads or pay-to-win game addiction say something similar, "at least we're not making killer robots". Maybe one of you have a better point than the other, but either way, we know this is one of the ways people rationalize it.
part of the problem is that many people don't know that it is possible to build an immutable history without blockchain. that's why compariosns to git, like this one are useful.

another part is that there are no general purpose libraries that are decoupled from file based version control (that i am aware of) that could be used. so people turn to blockchain because it is the most obvious thing to use. just like people use kubernetes even when in many cases that is overkill and unnecessary to solve a particular problem.
Not too suprising with all these payments plans for cars and whatever.

Are houses included? The article is not very clear. I guess that would dominate quite fast.
You have misunderstood the threat. When an attacker gains a foothold in a corporate environment, they will immediately try to find any accessible credentials to assist in lateral movement.

If the user's passwords to the rest of the corporate systems are sitting unprotected in a browser password store, it is a gold mine.

Yes, they should have 2fa and single sign on and so on, but many places don't. The article isn't terrible, it's just pointing out something in browsers that works ok for home users but puts businesses at some risk.
The biggest “hidden” cost for me was Elastic Blockstore IO charges! It started adding up quite quickly and I realized I had to think twice about doing IO intensive calculations on EC2! I switched over to lightsail (obviously these are for personal projects).

The index funds have to invest their available money minus the redemptions. Very few funds can invest in options. Most of them can only hold bonds and/or stocks. There are futures, options and whatever else funds but they are the minority by far.

The fed does not have to print money for the market to rise. The economy can/will grow. Inflation itself will impact the market. We all bitch about prices rising but companies are willing to raise prices and we are willing to pay. Plus a lot of hard assets will be rising in price and that will be reflected in their stock price. Things may seem bleak but as long as there's money to spend the market will rise.

It's a guessing game but the best choice for decades has been to stay invested and invest in the market. Nothing says that has changed.
Out of curiosity, what did you use to conduct a nationwide search where you can set price / sf parameters?

Is there a tool that can do that, or did you piece together data from multiple sources?

I've heard most of the commercial real estate that's publicly listed is just the deals that the pros have already passed on.
This is honestly a tough thing with other cloud-based solutions aswell. Backing up your data from say AWS isn't difficult _per se_, it's just made prohibitively expensive to export any serious amount of data
It’s your data, you should be allowed to export it whenever you want, expired account or not. At least, it is mandatory under GDPR.

European perspective here: It varies, but I still write one for 80-90% of applications.

- 10% of online applications explicitly only have one form field to upload CV

- 20% of them have separate fields which most often are "CV, last employer's reference, cover letter, others"

- the remainder just let you upload as many documents as you want with the expectation that at least the 3 mentioned in the last bullet are included.
People in US will be shocked to know how “caste” politics works in India. It is affirmative action taken to its absolute extreme for no other purpose but gaining political vote. More than half of the seats at all universities, including science and medicine, are reserved for the caste people. Same for government jobs and everything that is under government control. It only makes sense to politicians that caste people are “minority” when they make sure more than half of everything is reserved for them. As someone who grew up in poor non-caste family, I watched my rich caste friends walk into prestigious universities and get admissions like it was no big deal while poor kids like me with much better academics had to settle for less or even give up field of study entirely.

In India, current caste system purely exist as vote bank for politicians. It is sad to see “caste” people now trying to push same affirmative actions with their discrimination shenanigans in US. They grew up entirely on Indian politics holding their hand while pushing out more deserving people. It is completely and utterly bogus claims that these people apparently now being prevented from getting promoted and hired due to discrimination in US. As an Indian living over 3 decades in US, I have never ever seen a single instance of anyone asking or disclosing their “caste”. To uninitiated, there is NO way to tell if some Indian person belongs to caste unless they disclose themselves with some certificate from their village. I grew up in India and I cannot tell which last name belongs to what caste. New generations and cities are extraordinarily cosmopolitan and I have never seen any discrimination based on cast in city I grew up in India for over two decades. Unlike African Americans or immigrants, there is no physical or language or any other externalities that gives away your caste. So, all these discrimination claims are just bullshit.
I’m so sick of these security articles. It’s become a boy who cried wolf situation with endless articles claiming something is critically insecure when the situation involves the attacker basically having end game access and ability to do just about anything anyway.

I feel bad that I really don't understand any of this. My mental model of what a CPU does stops at the assembly level, and intuitively feels like (and looks like) doing some convolution on an image - e.g. a local, nodal point moving through a bitmap, leaving behind the wake of some set of operations, a smear, with some of that smear propagating forward. But now I realize that all of these models are a middling-high level picture of a CPU's side effect, not it's operation - the manner in which it combines it's operands is, effectively, voodoo. But voodoo with which I am comfortable, for reasons involving NAND gates and Alan Turing, but I wonder: should I be so comfortable?
> It costs a (or several) higher paid worker, better tools, patience and more inspection time. Often these Chabuduo workers are young people with a "Dagong" mindset, little education and got scammed into construction business and quit very soon.

I don't think it takes anything beyond "water won't flow towards the drains unless it's correctly sloped".

You don't need higher pay, the same old tools work just fine, or inspections. When they shape the underlayment, they just need to slope it. It's the same amount of work (I've done it), all it takes is an attitude of "when I make this, I should make sure it performs it's function".

I don't disagree some of it can be "screw this job, who cares", which certainly can be a factor for some workers, but my colleague worked with a guy who had his own cabinet business constantly cut corners to the points some cabinets door wouldn't open correctly (spacing the cabinet from the wall).

He was amazed when my buddy shared ideas on how to avoid it. The guy looked at him like he was some sort of wizard. It had never occurred him of doing this minor change. And this was his own business!
It's a bit of a shame the author didn't dig more into it, I am pretty sure MoltenVk gives you a reasonably up-to-date Vulkan on Mac, and I've seen progress lately on zink-over-MoltenVk, which should enable OpenGL 4.6 on macos.

On the other hand, that's not really the point of this work.

Lyme disease is one of those silent diseases. You don't see or hear that much about it because it's so debilitating that those who suffer from it are effectively removed from society. To put it in perspective, a lot of people that suffer from ALS hope that they have Lyme disease, since you might get better with time, but the symptoms are quite similar.
I'm not quite sure I understand, isn't there a written contract you sign that states exactly what you get for N amount of money? Paying extra because of insufficient planning sucks, but is the price of such luxury.

Think of the bright side; it's a good thing this bit your company at this early stage and not with half a million dollar contracts.

Who cares? I've never heard of Zalando and their "adopt" criteria is as follows:

So all this tells us is that Rust isn't well-regarded by a company most people have never heard of.

Every review site "fabricates their test reults" thats the whole point. You create a test that documents your assistent.

The ruling on an appeal makes the argument better than i could.

> [The] først theory is that CU know it was probably lying because its employees tries to make the samurai flip and we're happy when they suceeded. The second is that CU purposely avoided the truth by failing to address a potential source of experimental error. Neither of these theories withstands serious scrutiny

The opinion end up concluding that the entire reason for changing the test setup, along with a description of the changes, was present in the article.

What a non-story.
> which sacrificed its life span in the name of some modicum of energy savings. These marginal design choices are not the only way to get an efficient unit, since the fridge compressors from the 1940's and 1950's era were very efficient.

This one surprised me. I need to do some digging. Did they get worse after the 50s? I know that an old fridge I had in the basement, probably from the 80s/90s, was horrible in that regard. It pulled 300W when the compressor was running, and about 20W when idle (why!?). I threw it out a long time ago, so I don't have the exact figures anymore, but over a day it consumed at least 3 to 5 times as much as the bigger one in my kitchen that was new at that time. And it was notably cooler in the basement too, so that should've worked in favor of the old one.
In reality tractors have, until the current evolution, been build absolutely for the long haul. Tractors which were the main tractor on the farm 50+ years ago are often still used for some side tasks here or there on the farm. Scraping out cattle sheds or mowing under the fence line with a sickle bar.

The lived reality of many farmers is that the John Deere computer systems are far less reliable and less maintainable than the mechanical systems of previous generations. With failure of the computer system being both common and completely crippling the tractor. In 50 years time what are the options going to looks like? Hopefully a lively community of fixers will be able to install the 2070s version of the raspberry pi and keep it running.
Community ownership. We need everyone to be part owner in the economy that they rely on. Then productivity gains are good for people even if there is less work to do.
I can recommend WaniKani (I'm on level 17). However, some caveats:

Firstly, you'll see lots of forum posts about hitting level 60 in 1-2 years, this is very difficult unless you want to dedicate a substantial amount of time (hours) every day. A more realistic pace might be 4 years or so. Many of these speed runners skip the vocab, and/or use scripts (e.g. to allow undoing mistakes etc).

Secondly, it can be draining to know your reviews are always increasing. I recommend using vacation mode (which pauses everything) when things become too much.

Thirdly, I think you need to complement kanji learning with reading real-world material to make it properly stick. It's feels different recalling individual vocab/kanji compared to reading sentences.

I remember one high profile ML engineer who went really ballistic on his peers at Facebook due to holding them responsible for Trump's election. He worked at Google himself.
I remember there being a lot of buzz about security issues related to allowing Browsers storing passwords, this was more than 10 years ago, but ever since that I have just not trusted them. I reluctantly use a open source password manager, keepass, and figure it is still better than using the same password everywhere.

Why would we store password in the browser? Seriously. I want my passwords to be available wherever I need to use them, and that only happens if I somehow share the passwords between my devices. I would not trust a proprietary browser developer do store my passwords securely. Period. I have no way of seeing or knowing what is going on on their cloud servers.

There are very simple ways to sync files between systems, which are open source, and are much more unlikely to compromise your passwords. E.g. The database itself is encrypted, and the methods of sharing are so simple that it is easy to cover many of the most probable points of entry. Obviously, sharing a password database file over the internet is extremely bad, but if you feel you must, do at least manage the server where you keep the pw db yourself. Heck, I would even 7zip it with another layer of security, because I can not know for sure if Keepass' encryption is safe.
Show HN: Imagor v1 – fast image processing server in Go and libvips
Imagor is a fast, Docker-ready image processing server written in Go, with libvips. The v1 milestone has got more advancements to its internals.

At the moment, all existing popular Go + libvips image applications (imgproxy, imaginary, bimg etc.) bridge libvips through buffer. While these are all good with normal web images, the latency and memory overhead can be noticeable when working through large, raw images, as they are all loading the whole image buffer in memory, sequentially.

Imagor v1 now bridges libvips through streams (i.e. Go io.Reader/Seeker/Closer). This greatly increases network throughput especially with network sources like HTTPs, S3, GCS, by giving the ability to overlap processing pipelines.

With streaming in place, same goes for image Exif metadata. Imagor can try to retrieve data just enough to extract the header, without reading and processing the whole image in memory.

Though of course cgo + stream means a lot of moving parts that can go wrong. Imagor has increased test coverages since then. It has been running in production for months, serving over a million of images everyday. Feel free to create a pull request or report an issue if you found bugs, suggestions or enhancements.

Honest question: What would be a good reason to learn Japanese nowadays, with all economical factors having run dry, over languages like Chinese or Korean?

The only reason I can think of is to read Manga / watch Anime in the original language and get the subtleties lost in translation, but that hardly is a good motivator compared to the other two I mentioned in terms of business use.
What are you talking about? The original review literally mentioned: "Under the touch of our drivers, all four utility vehicles got through the course at 52 mph or better. The Suzuki Samurai was actually more maneuverable than the others, since it's so much smaller and lighter"

Tell me again how it was some cover up. They literally published your argument along with the review.
You don’t _need_ it but I think it’s nice to know kanji (or hanja as we say in Korean) to understand deeper cultural meanings in the language.

To give an example, I’ve just watched episode 12 of “Strange attorney Woo”, and one of the character talks about the two different hanja that make up 사 in 변호사 and 검사. A lot of the older generations still use this kind of comparison to make a point about nuance/history of a word.

But if you talk to younger generations, they talk predominantly in internet slangs and have no clues about hanja.

There's a ton of cheap Chinese tools for sale in Japan. Makita is a nationally-recognized Japanese brand. If you want a quality tool for long-term use, one would often select a made-in-Japan Makita. The higher price is justified by the longer warranty, etc.
