> What makes you certain that this was going to prevent the invasion?

It's not certain but assuming the worst is just an extension of the same moral pure-good and pure-evil that this thread is about. My point is that if your view of the world is that Russia is an pure-evil actor that will keep invading more and more countries no matter what the west does then it'll eventually lead to nuclear war. In which case none of this discussion matters. The reason Finland (or any country) is joining NATO is because it makes that point explicit.
I rent a couple of properties out in the bay area and up until this year I've always relied on craigslist to get new tenants, but this year we tried out Zillow and we got tons of applicants, and the whole application process including vetting and setting up a lease and everything was done through Zillow. On the other hand someone noticed our Zillow listing and created a fraudulent listing of my property on Craigslist. I'm pretty much never going back to Craigslist. Apartments.com is also good for creating leases and managing properties, but Zillow seems to be the place to get high quality tenants.
> they're off to some sort of p2p AI / ML marketplace

Seems to be at least slightly true, by my amateur judgement. Sometimes I use https://vast.ai, and seems there is more offers than usual, currently ~180 instances available for rent.

CL is still alive and well here in LA. It's possible it's just in the markets I'm looking in (tools, machinery, cars, etc), but I've always preferred it over things like FB, OfferUp etc. I feel like the people I meet from CL are generally much more knowledgeable about what they have and its value. Other platforms often feel like a relative selling grandpa's stuff and have done the bare minimum of research to find a price point. Usually if someone on CL lacks knowledge, it means I'm getting a great deal that day rather than waiting for them to realize they're asking too much in a small market.
Soon after George Floyd, my manager came under immense pressure from HR to inquire me about my race. I declined to comment. So they decided to mark me as a minority based on my ethnic name. It still bothers me to this day that my race is so outright asked in the office to used to determine my employability, recognition, bonuses, and promotion. It was a turning point in my career. I thought to myself, "wow, here we are. I didn't think we'd get here, but I now work for a racist company and society at large."
Isn't the new Lockdown Mode also a way to prevent this?
It won't do anything to solve the dread-of-nonexistence problem. But a copy that behaves just like you is still useful if your motivation is something like "ensure that my line of scientific research continues" or "take care of my extended family."

"As far as I remember, McAfee shared an iPhone photo with location metadata ..."

This reminds me of the workflow I use for publishing pictures on my website:

magick convert IMG_2673.HEIC -strip -quality 80 -shave 10x10 -resize 91.1% -attenuate 1.0 +noise Uniform out.jpg ; exiftool -a -u -g1 out.jpg

(where 80 is a random number between 75 and 85 I choose at the time and 91.1 is a random (real) number between 91.0 and 91.9)

You cannot exiftool purge a HEIC because it breaks it - you need to exiftool purge the resulting jpeg ... also, weirdly, -attenuate needs to come before the +noise switch in the command line.

A fairer comparison would be to create a series hybrid with gasoline and minimum battery size. then the energy output of total gasoline + engine efficiency (~30%) vs battery + EV motor efficiency. the reason I insist this is because there is a thermodynamic efficiency maximum for engines so physics caps getting energy out of gas engines.

then the numbers become more realistic.
> Using PRAW to get counts of ticker mentions in some subreddits isn't super interesting, at least in my eyes.

Just to clarify, this isn't what is happening. And I agree that's not interesting. It's measuring the response to mentions and that's the score we save (we call them impressions). It's like that saying "if a tree falls in the forest, does it make a noise?", if a post goes unseen, will people still buy the stock?

We also don't just release the top X number of stocks that we recorded per day, we're looking for patterns in the data and this becomes the interesting stocks of each day, which then go on to be validated.

> that suddenly a group of people will all randomly pick the same tickers to start hyping up

Of course not, like you said: it's memetic. Sure it can start off coordinated but when it goes viral its self-perpetuating. Those are the kinds of patterns I mention in the last paragraph. You can see these upticks, the strength of them, and try to gauge how sustainable they are.

We’ve taken our commercial open-source licensing from other larger commercial open-source products.

I think it’s fair. The licensing states that you’re allowed to use Reflio 100% for free, as long as you keep the codebase in a public repository. Otherwise, if you want to use Reflio in a closed repo, you have to obtain a commercial license.

> We need dissent even in the middle of battle. We need to re-asses and continuously examine what we hold true to ensure it is still true.

Tacticians act on Intelligence. Dissent is not Intelligence.

Dissent is so toxic it is literally weaponized to cripple an adversary with indecision and domestic unrest. It is the militarization of gaslighting.

It's not something you want arising mid-campaign, especially when (as in this case) its proponents are entirely fictional.
There's always going to be some cost to metrics, going forward you probably just want to document it and then update the figure as you tune it. Higher performance opt-in metrics are the sort of thing a company using it at scale ought to be able to help with/sponsor work on.

How will PoS not deflate the currency to zero? Why would you spend eth at all when you can make more money holding it via guaranteed returns?
I'm curious where you live. After all, craigslist famously decimated classified advertising in the US, primarily because classified ads in newspapers are hella expensive, and craigslist is usually free.
It's probably smart for a few reasons. Given limited support resources, do you really want to spent all of them on furious people? If it takes five times as long to help one irate customer with a complex situation, at some point that has to enter the calculus.
A recent experience trying to find something on Craigslist was shocking. As much as its UI is frozen in time, so are its anti-abuse measures.

I have no doubt that lots of people are getting hurt using Craigslist. I would never recommend it to friends or family.
For anyone looking for schools for CS, https://csrankings.org/ is an excellent site that gives you an overview of departments' research output, filterable by subfield, geographic location etc. A very nice system if you're intending to get involved in research in your undergrad, but especially good if you plan on continuing to a Master's or PhD in CS.
Food, energy, healthcare—really, all—prices are skyrocketing. Universal basic income seems like an inevitability. Implementing it as a CBDC makes a lot of sense: it can be tracked. It can be added to your taxable income, and tax refunds provided based on how it was spent: loaf of bread? You get refunded. Another yacht? No refund.
The issue is lack of transparency over the amount of editorial influence that Waymo exercised. This is why I linked to Snazzy Labs' comment about their experience making one of the other Waymo-sponsored videos.
Deep Learning from the Foundations IS part 2. They are not talking about how part 1 starts. They are talking about how part 2 starts. This mirrors how their book is written, with the content typically in Deep Learning for Foundations being the second half of the book. I've taken the courses every year, it's always been like that.

You should consider taking a look at part 1 of the course if you want to understand the starting curriculum: https://course.fast.ai/
Also money market returns are significantly higher.
There are (still) lots of US citizens who don't own a cellphone and so couldn't produce one. Are all of those subject to a cavity search? If that were common, I'd think I'd heard of it by now.

In any case, if the choice is between having a copy of the contents of my phone made, or being detained and cavity-searched, I'll take the detention and cavity search.
You're giving way too much credit to reality...

It must be awkward to be an honest Nigerian on Hacker News, since the country is famous for obvious online scams.
I would say because it is a tool, and tools should stay relatively the same. It's ok to make a new tool!

I have this discussion with people who make physical objects all the time, and their frustrations with the software world. Imagine learning to use a Heidelberg offset press 20y ago, and if you enter your workshop, it performs the same as before. Now imagine you are a painter who uses photoshop elements once in awhile. For some reason, your printer is printing all your pictures with a red tinge. You buy a new version of photoshop elements, and the problem is gone. The moving targets of saas and other remote updated software changes the perspective on tools, especially for production purposes. Many people who produce physical objects with software run into these problems. I fix up motorcycles in my spare time, and I dread the day my torque wrench needs an update!
Good point. I don't travel a lot and I use old hardware.
I have to admit I'm almost 42 years old and a native English speaker, and until just a few minutes ago I didn't actually know what "munificent" meant. I just looked it up, and based on the thoughtfulness of your comments here, I think it's an appropriate username.
What’s Ligma?
According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress, only 35% of U.S. fourth graders in 2019 could read proficiently [0]. The pandemic has only made this worse [1] [2]. Once students start to fall behind in reading, they fall further and further behind their peers each year. What is, perhaps, most criminal is that there is a mountain of research [3][4][5][6][7] about what works, and yet these approaches aren’t employed nor even well-known.

I am a former principal engineer at a FAANG/MAMAA/etc. [8] company turned independent educational researcher, and I believe I have developed a novel edtech approach to address this learning gap. I am collaborating with a few data scientists and educators, but am searching for UX designers, curriculum designers, writers, and marketers who can help make this a reality.

In brief, one of the core challenges in edtech is how to build an engaging app that actually results in learning (many apps resort to psychological tricks [9] and gamification hacks [10] that are long-term detrimental.) Although I have a high-level direction for how to achieve this, my skill set is mostly in backend development and public speaking.

Yes, and don't forget the great schematic diagram in the back! It definitely didn't come in the box with the C64; I had to save up as well.

Craigslist is one of my favorite tech companies. They have a fantastic product which they don't sabotage in the interest of growth. Huge respect to them for quietly being the best.
As I noted above, not as much of a problem here in LA, but I totally believe you that it's true elsewhere. And honestly, I'm probably missing some great stuff not perusing FB and OfferUp.

But there's one simple, guiding principle that I'm always following. And that's refusing to reactivate my FB account.
Your estimate could be extremely high. What those quick with a dismissive comment forget is that 15% of the population has an IQ of 85 or less. So to answer the FAANG-employed Stanford grad's question of "how could anyone be this stupid?": easy, a non-trivial percentage of them are born that way.

Regardless, there are plenty of my Microsoft/Google/FB-employed neighbors that I wouldn't trust around anything more dangerous than what comes out of a USB port, either.
Yeah I just wanted to do a client-server app on a UDP-like socket, but WebRTC had so much complexity that it put me off.

It's gotten better now, but WebTransport is the solution we've needed for a while.
It's much cheaper than just the material for exterior door, let alone installation. They just use cheap SLA batteries. They're about $50 more than openers without a backup.
Absolutely. The plan is to make it opt-in for now, and then having a company sponsor the performance tuning would be very welcomed. Otherwise it'll probably sit until someone with the right skills/know-how and time comes along.

SEC Concerns over Staking Model on Ethereum
My understanding is that MuZero beats AlphaZero, but not by a significant amount. Even if Stockfish is better, to me at this point feels needless, given it’s highly unlikely a human over significant volume of matches would have any hope of beating any of them. It is possible that new approaches for masters might be found, but for average player, guessing it’s highly unlikely that anything new might be uncovered. Am I missing something?

I'm going to borrow this, it will make many future discussions much shorter than with my current approach of floundering around this sentiment.
The code giving a "lot of thought to software design" must be pretty good, because this looks like Java Graybeard garbage to me. Yeah, that's a caustic statement. I'm not trying to say that people who made it didn't do a good job, but the display is just.... Not good enough. They need to find a team member to help them get out of 20 years ago with this stuff. If anyone that is working on this reads this. That's my thought. I am not taking shots at your work. It does look well organized, but I cannot see a reason I would choose this.
I lost two Ethernet ports a few months ago from a lightning strike on a neighboring house. The devices still work otherwise and other Ethernet ports connected to the switch were unharmed. They were both on a PoE switch which may have been partially at fault (though it still works too).

Tell HN: I have found a hardware heisenbug in my laptop
I use a Lenovo x220 and this is one of the most loved laptops among the IT crowd. Sometimes I opened it after 1 hour of travel and found 0% of battery. Today I realized why it happens so.

My configuration is pretty default for Debian: when the lid is closed, the system sleeps, and when the lid is opened the system unsleeps. But if the lid opens and quickly closes due to vibration the system unsleeps and keeps working. If something heavy is running, the battery drains quickly. If you think that nothing heavier than an e-book is running then check your open e-books for any epub files opened. Atril the default viewer uses WebKit for rendering epub which means absurdly heavy CPU load which was my case.

What about the bug with the lid, it is unfixable on a program level. That reed switch is controlled by BIOS, and when the open-lid signal is received, the BIOS thing is going to be busy for several seconds doing some work to get the system unsleep. Solving the problem using bash script with asking the reed every 5 seconds seems like worse than a problem. Since the bug is hardware-caused, the solution has to be hardware as well. Bigger laptops from this series have a lock to prevent this from happening but this device has extremely little room inside of it so I understand why this model doesn't have the lock. Now I tie my laptop with rubber to prevent it from opening while traveling.

Such a pity no mobile device vendor does anything to prevent battery-powered devices from extra charge-discharge cycles.
Yes, although if the premise is that you're being compelled to unlock your device by law enforcement then it seems like they could also compel you to disable Lockdown Mode and restart your device - that's not possible with Pair Locking.
What about the whole Ship-of-Theseus thing?

What if you add something to you that's knit into and augmenting your brain by 10%, and then as a little more of your brain withers, you add another chunk. Ultimately it reaches a point where your existing brain is doing none of the work and it's all machines, but there was arguably never a precipice crossed where it wasn't "you".
True. My race is listed on Workday. And that was determined by HR after I declined to declare what I am. They just decided to look at me, my name, and choose what they thought most suiting.

I think the article presents a few different ways that this technology is concerning: the budget aspect (which seems to be neutrally aligned), the concern for privacy of US Citizen's near the border (also not a left aligned concept), and the regard for human life regardless of immigration status (something that I imagine isn't unique to the far left).

Regardless of one's take on immigration law, or characterization of undocumented immigrants as criminals: the practices of CBP absolutely should be under scrutiny given the unparalleled power they wield.
