"wolf crossbreeds" are still a thing. Most of the time people have a "part wolf" husky they're breeding from and what they're selling is huskies with slightly more varied coats; but there's still 50% crosbreeds being raised by some folks.

Neighbor of mine brings his out to the flea market sometimes for socialization; when he hits the lot every real dog there knows it, and is upset about it. The wolfdog is very polite, and on a chain, the domestic dogs don't like his smell.
That's essentially a more expensive (manpower-wise) and less reliable alternative to tapes.

Keep in mind that what might be considered 'a lot of data' varies significantly. A medium commercial company here in west EU is going to require about 0.5PB of backup space for a single data rotation. In other areas you might get away with storing 100TB or even less.
I've yet to find anything that matches LR DAM.

And the cloud version of LR does offer cool features if you use them. I just need my iPad now when traveling. Can proof and start edits right there, then continue on the computer. I pull my images onto the iPad and let the cloud sync and back them up.

The only system that might be able to replace the workflow I currently use is Apple Photos, but it doesn't deal that well with RAWs and editing outside of the Photos.app.

This approach is possible but increases the complexity of your problem by enormous amounts. I know of only a very tiny number of companies that have an active goal of preventing rogue insider threats in a serious way. And the solutions do meaningfully inhibit developer productivity.
Yep. Best to tar backup chunks as a whole before sending to DA.
Back in the day, Cloudflare's WAF was based on OpenResty, so the high-performance Lua-programmability at the edge (which is noted in this blog entry) was probably a factor. Quick research shows HAProxy added Lua support in 2015, which is a bit later than their use of OpenResty.
With the generally available rewriteable blu-ray capacity, doing this would be quite burdensome to archive even some couple terabytes. Would recommend multiple online harddrives, preferably far apart from each other and some append-only mode to prevent accidental deletion. Or a cheap online-backup service, or both.

So say we all.
You can still use the official IDCAC list or another one in uBlock. It’s not as good in big companies’ websites (like google) that show their own interactive multi page banners bc the filters can’t simulate clicks, but it’s still good enough for an uncluttered navigation in most websites.
The title is obviously edgy, but rules are rules so that's how I submitted the article. IMHO, the subtitle would have been better: Behind the scenes, federal officials pressure social media platforms to suppress disfavored speech.

Either way, I think both soft and hard touch by the Feds to censor social media is very interesting.
They've said "safer", not "100% foolproof in every circumstance, no exceptions".
this does not even apply to Uber in any way.

There is no job at uber that could not be done by a coklwague that has access. There is no situation where 10 million delay in uber loses you 100 million dollars

What makes skipping meals a “strategy” while your meal eating habits is (presumably) not a “strategy”?
Yep, we had a few IVRs set up like that for clients at an old job. The reality was there for those was that there was no pool of agents we could transfer those calls to, it was set up to be an entirely automated system by request from the client.

It was mainly for doctor appointment reminders, though, so hopefully those called still had their appointments written down somewhere (or also signed up for email reminders).
Yeah but if so I'm not sure why running wouldn't have the same impact
Computers are still fun and IMHO, they are more fun today than they were in the past: no more loud fans running at full whack, no more spinning rust slowing things down, no more expensive briefcase sized laptops with 40min battery life, operating systems where everything just works out of the box without fumbling over which floppy has the right driver that won't randomly crash the OS, fast internet and easy piracy, better malware protection and security out of the box, no more collecting stacks of optical media (ok, that was pretty fun), etc.

I cut my teeth into '90s computing but I wouldn't go back to those days.

People need to venture outside the walled gardens to discover the fun, but most people don't, as their smartphone with Instagram and TikTok is more addictive than checking out what they can do on a PC.
Mine was a bashed together repo from some example tutorial. I was trying to build a paintball game so most of this was actually interest in exploring solid body projectiles vs. hitscan. I was able to get 10 players with 10 balls per second running reasonably smooth without any crazy optimization so that was cool. When I hit the wall of shared lib thats when I gave up further exploration.
I never knew that. Kind of unsettling to watch.
Too often "narcissism" is used to describe a quality of someone we don't like or admire who seems to like and admire themselves.

Skimming this library, Garfunkel is certainly not lacking in intellectual confidence! It implies to me that he wants to understand the world, from many angles at a deep level, and yeah to do that you need confidence that might create unpleasant feelings in an observer. The discomfort is caused by envy, also regret and loss, because we all start out with boundless confidence, and only lose it over time, mainly to avoid being called out by our cool friends who discovered the social value of giving up on hard problems and difficult achievements.
The way US treats the migrants is human rights violation at the border. Now add this to the pile of atrocities committed by the border patrol and ICE. It's high time we should consider open border.
I also think people should be able to voice their opinions, even if they are very opposed to my personal beliefs. There is a need for that, to evade corporate or state sponsored censorship.

WebAuthn does not mandate any kind of form factor[1], external tokens use CTAP for USB/Bluetooth/NFC, Apple FaceID/TouchID and Windows Hello using proprietary interfaces with the built-in hardware. Blink-based browsers ships with a virtual authenticator for debugging[2] and there are a few more[3].

Apple and Google already announced cloud syncing earlier this year, using "passkey" as a friendlier term for end-users. QR codes already allow for cross-ecosystem non-synced use cases, like using my personal Android phone to log in an account with my work Macbook. https://securitycryptographywhatever.buzzsprout.com/1822302/... is a good listen to catch up on the latest developments.

The new UK system makes no sense. My current mobile provider (O2) will offer me unlimited data usage in the USA but will charge several pounds a day extra to use my phone in France.

Nginx is written in C which is probably where the comparison is coming from.
Screen does not start at 0 so your poke won't place anyhing on screen (actually, address 0 is the PORT register on the 6510 iirc).

POKE X CHR$(209) is not valid syntax, POKE takes a memory address (in decimal) a COMMA and the value (0-FF) in decimal.

Also.. CHR$ converts an ascii value to a character.. you don't want that here..

Also.. the character color has not been set under the ball, so it won't show up on most of the screen-area..

Screen memory starts at 1024, color memory at 55296 so to show your ball, you'll do

POKE 1024,209
POKE 55296,1

Also, you should use 81 and not 209, since the machine is in uppercase mode, and 209 is the inverted circle in that mode.

Why spend the time to write an article with examples that do not actually work?

If we assume for the sake of argument simple RAID 6 setup, to lose say a block of data you'd need to

* have a bad block on one drive
* have a bad block in *EXACTLY SAME LOCATION* on the second drive
* have a bad block in *EXACTLY SAME LOCATION* on the third drive
* all of that happening within one scrub period (which is usually once a month).

And that's just simple RAID6 setup without external redundancy.

As you can see it would be far easier to lose data due to just correlated drive failures, than from random block corruption.

I can't speak for them but that's exactly what I do with a Yubikey on my personal keys & work badgecard lanyard. My rationale is that the physical key prevents remote attacks since they can't use the token and anyone who finds/steals my keys won't have the password. Scenarios where the attacker has both aren't on my personal radar — that's the kind of situation where you're looking at things like duress codes.

Minor contributions I made to Rails in 2007 led to being recruited as the first tech lead and eventual CTO for a nascent startup. There was no premeditation here though, it was just serendipity.

Cloudflare uses a custom fork of nginx, with custom extensions, Lua FFI, and improved HTTP/2 and caching modules. So it is a comparison to development of in-house C.
Furthermore, you can publish "The effects of the Jewish population on the 1930s German economy" which can be either a genuine bona-fide analysis, or something which essentially boils down to "Jews destroyed German economy before the war".

I think the "reddit model" where you have smaller communities with community mods works much better than the Facebook or Twitter model where there's one "global community". Not that reddit's moderation is perfect or that you can 100% rely on community mods, but overall, it seems to work much better.
Indeed, a simple spell for animating an arbitrary number of broomsticks to fetch an amount of water given by argument. [0] Oh, and it was given to us by a demon whose output we don't really understand. What could go wrong?

Thankfully, if I'm understanding the article properly, the broomsticks didn't properly animate, though both the demon and human researchers figured they would. I'm all for demon-assisted magical research, but I very much doubt that the next action taken will be "abandon this avenue of research until we understand the demon's process better". We should probably understand this kind of thing if we're going to be messing with it.

I wrote a tool to help dig into goroutine stack dumps from customer deployments. One of the things the open source project (https://github.com/openziti/ziti) I work on does is mesh networking. This has been very helpful for looking at goroutines from multiple processes, debugging distributed systems issues.

It can:

* Load multiple stackdumps
* Group similar goroutines automatically or manually
* Group goroutines by regular expression

It is written in Java, because I needed a tool and I've done Java UIs in the past. Since I do Go backend development I figured I'd spend my time getting the tool written.

We also use a Go agent library (https://github.com/openziti/agent) which helps us gather stack dumps (and pprof dumps, etc) at runtime.

> the front desk of a hotel the rate of attempted chargebacks for ppv porn

To be honest this seems more like a hotel problem than a porn problem. E.g., I viewed it by mistake, I didn't understand the pricing, etc. I would expect that there is a similar amount of complaints about the hotel room's minibar and snacks that are lying there but charged an incredible rate afterwards if touched.

Because that is the single innovative aspect of crypto: circumventing regulation (by virtue of not having a central authority). Every single other thing can be done better by a non-decentralised system.

Boo-hoo. I would think that more rich people are circumventing capital controls in China, Korea, and Argentina using crypto than poor, unbanked people are using crypto.
> If I want to learn how to create cool images, I want to spend as little time as possible predicting housing prices in the Bay Area.

I think that's somewhat of a dangerous mindset to have. If you want to create cool images you can use pre-trained models and high-level APIs without needing to understand any of the internals.

But if you want to truly understand how these models work, you need to make effort to study the basics. Maybe not predicting housing prices, but learn the foundational math and primitives behind all of the components from the ground up (and the Diffusion models are a complex beast made up of many components). And getting an intuitive understanding of how models behave when you tune certain knobs takes much longer. Many researchers in the field have spent years developing their intuition of what works and what doesn't.

Both of these are fine, but I think I think we should stop encouraging people to be in the middle. Have courses that that promise "Learn Deep Learning / Transformers / Diffusion models in 7 days!" but then go on and teach you how to call blackbox APIs, giving you an illusion of knowledge and understanding where there is none. I don't know if this applies to this specific course, but there are a bunch of those out there, and highly recommend staying away from those. I know it's a hard sell in this modern instant gratification age, but if you actually want to understand something you need to put in some possibly hard work.

From reading the directive it appears as though they don’t have an exemption for Americans:

Of course the official response is what you would expect:

“CBP officials declined, however, to answer questions about how many Americans’ phone records are in the database, how many searches have been run or how long the practice has gone on, saying it has made no additional statistics available “due to law enforcement sensitivities and national security implications.””
