OP here. To add a little context.

I have been using SendGrid for the past year and their deliverability rate has gotten down 13%. I am getting 5-10 emails every day from users claiming that they don't receive the email. I have 99% reputation BTW. So the problem does seem to be SendGrid since I barely send > 40K emails per month.

So I have been thinking of either self hosting via Postal or using Amazon SES. However, I haven't used any of those before so don't know the downsides. I am particularly concerned about deliverability.

Hope someone can shed some light on this.

If anything you’re understating the problem.

The problem with “Jews destroyed German economy before the war” is that it’s extremely vague and difficult to verify. There’s no good basis for the claim, but it’s not even a historical detail that could be easily verified; it’s more of an overarching theoretical opinion.

As for “Jews were murdered by Germans during the war”, sure. That’s an extremely well documented fact. They were also murdered by Romanians, Lithuanians, Bulgarians, Hungarians, Ukrainians, and other collaborators, but in context, we know that the Germans were organizing the whole thing. We also know that there’s a different context today in 2022 where some people might want to emphasize and others might want to minimize the complicity of Ukrainian collaborators.
True

OTOH, without the state, you have anarchy, which is inevitably and quickly filled by warlords or criminal gangs controlling whatever geographic and/or economic territory they can. The security situation in relation tho them is even less good, and you don't get nearly as much good infrastructure.

So, it's important to keep in mind the broader context and what really is a lesser of evils.

Unless, of course, you can point me to the magical stable stateless advanced society where I can go live... (srsly, it'd be great)
I think that just underlines his point though, you started going down that path and then had the ability pause and think critically for a moment.
> I haven't taken the course, but that sounds like a horrible place to start a course on understanding deep learning.

Sounds like you support the course author's decision to make this part 2 of the course series to be taken after part 1 is completed!
Ownership implies both risk and reward. Those who own anything (a private company or stock in a public company) are entitled to their share of the profits but also must take on the risk of the value going down. How do you convince all the employees of any company ('even the interns') to take on the risks accompanying ownership?
> parents were happy that I do not waste so much time anymore on the computer. so no computers for me any more. I think they never understood what I was actually doing.

As a parent I now wonder about the ways that I might do something similar to my kid.

Or perhaps more importantly, what is the c64 of my kid's generation that I can buy for her?

I feel the opposite, the fact that computers were so limited in resources (in the late 90s for me as I am now pushing 40) made it more fun. These days, with all the space, iops and cores I could ever dream of, it’s like playing doom with god mode enabled.
I'd say that the lost satellites themselves would be less of an issue than the threat that their debris poses to the other satellites.

A destroyed satellite will create a debris cloud. This cloud will spread out because there is just one right speed for each orbit and imparting momentum on pieces will give each of them an own orbit.

Starlink operates on different orbital planes with the same inclination [0][1]. At lower latitudes (i.e. closer to the equator) the angle between different orbital planes that Starlink operates on will be large [1]. In these areas, the speed difference between other satellites and these fragments will be larger than at others (think about cars at an intersection vs. all going in the same direction on a highway). That turns these fragments into a sort of orbital rounds of shot and the more satellites are affected, the worse it gets (i.e. a self-reinforcing problem). The Kessler syndrome is very similiar to this scenario. [2]

Programming BASIC was a lot like programming assembly language in terms of how the GOTO and GOSUB keywords worked. GOTO led to a lot of criticism over "spaghetti code", but the limitations of GOSUB were worse.

GOSUB would put the calling location on a stack so you could RETURN to it later but there was no stack for parameters, local variables or return values so you had to use global variables for all of those.

You could not write recursive functions in BASIC unless you implemented a stack yourself using arrays. It was easy to compute Fibonacci iteratively, but people had to sort in BASIC all the time and wrote bubble sort, shell sort and other algorithms that were slow but easy to code in BASIC as opposed to Quicksort.

If you have the kind of functions that exist in C, Pascal, LISP, ML, Python and many other languages then you can write a simple Quicksort in a few lines of clear code.
There is also utility in having the faculty in every single department of a school be above average in quality. It makes exploration and collaboration much more rewarding.

There are non-Ivies like that, too, but by and large, the Ivies are all pretty good at every subject.

(I don't want to take away from the networking/peer-capability point, which really matters, but rather add another reason to consider the fancy schools.)
Zig seems like a good alternative to Rust for those of us who yearn for a better C anyhow.
This is right. I am not interested in the basket at all. I'm interested in not being sleep deprived quite like I was the first time around.
It's really a shame that you won't learn the language because there are a lot of fans. Maybe it would be worth considering that this may be more than just hype. Especially now that the Linux Kernel may be adopting Rust, and most of the big tech companies are building new projects in Rust.

Go's approach to massive parallelism, Erlang and the supervisor/actor model, Rust and it's borrow-checker. These are all milestones in programming language development. There's a reason for the hype.
Hackers shows the career guys as lame and high strung, but the hobbyists (or as Razor and Blade put it, those hacking as a survival trait) as cool and having fun. It's easy for something fun to have the fun sucked out of it when it becomes a career.

I think a part of the hacker sub-culture that Hackers touches on lightly is that you have to make your own space. It's not going to exist for you in some prepackaged easy to consume way and certainly not in a corporation. Cyberdelia was for & by hackers, not a club run by some guy who has a bunch of cookie cutter clubs all over downtown. I don't think this is unique to the hacker sub culture, either.
I'm curious why is this warning only being issued now? Until now they haven't issued any warnings about this type of product?

Hah. Just yesterday I was contemplating how awful Angelina Jolie's character's handle "Acid Burn" was. Like - who the fuck would choose such nickname for themselves?

Other than that - cult movie. Love it. Awesome soundtrack, not that bad acting and not that bad script for back when computers and internet were hip, not just the usual thing.

"Hackers" caricaturally but still somewhat properly presents the phreaking culture which was and is rather uncommon for non-niche movies, especially from that era.

This movie aged well.
> Don't pretend that "liability reasons" is due to ethical concerns about the safety of the product. Someone would buy it off a shelf at Lowes, would take Lowes to court, and Lowes would lose.

Is this not exactly what “liability reasons” implies? Surely if it was an ethical argument they would’ve written “ethical reasons” instead.
This is a large part of why I feel this way.

I grew up near Ottawa, and had a lot of friends whose parents worked at Nortel. They were compensated with a lot of stock, which they held onto (it keeps rising, after all). Their pension plan was mostly invested in the company stock too.

When the company fell apart (let's set aside whose fault that is- different topic), they lost their jobs, their savings, their pensions, in their 40s and early 50s mostly.
I believe there was a defcon talk about this but for the life of me I can't find it. My advice is to epoxy your lightning port closed (or snip the data connection inside the phone) and use wireless charging exclusively.

It just feels like one of those things people want to believe no matter if it's true or not. For example, when New York shutdown a recycling plant because it was worse for the environment than not recycling and everyone protested to have it reopened because no matter what anyone told them they believed that recycling is good therefore, the recycling plant was good for the environment.

Most people here need open source tools to do their job in one way or another. They love the fact they don't need to pay for it and they can just use it. They've been sold on the free software ideogly that it's possible to fork means that someone will or they even they will do it. No matter how much their employers refuse to open source their code, refuse to pay for open source contributors they fully believe that using an open source library or tool means there is less risk for their company because they can make the changes themselves. However, the risk is often greater. Almost certainly their employer won't pay for it and they will have to look for a replacement. They won't have any support contracts that can enforce how much notice they get given to find a replacement. The open source tool will most often just be abandoned.

They took my laptop in the back for just 30 minutes or so, after which I refused to accept it back from them or even touch it, which took another 2 hours or so. Eventually they agreed to dispose of it themselves.

> You probably don't realize it, most don't, but your statement is contradictory.

It's not.

> If something is crashing, it means no one can or will buy it. [..] If people can buy something or want to buy it, it will no crash.

You're only looking at demand as if that's everything that determines price. There's also the supply side to consider, as well as the fact that markets aren't a formless thing with no fixed location existing in a vacuum.

Price crashes can also happen because of competition destroying high margins or production simply becoming way cheaper. Price crashes don't have to be related to demand: it can simply be a matter of companies undercutting each other.

A third way for price crashes to happen is investors buying up a commodity, increasing the price. This will likely cause production to ramp up to compensate, slowly driving the price back down. Once investors see the price beginning to drop, they may sell in a panic. You're left with a market that is flooded by investors trying divest themselves amidst an overproduction, causing a price crash. The consumer never went away or was unwilling to buy though! Averaged over the entire timespan, demand never changed.
It is a more nuanced issue.

Some people get addicted and dependent because they have learned to escape their general life situation by consuming drugs which help them cope with negative emotions. You will find a lot of these people in lower and middle class jobs.

Some people get addicted because they have too much free time, too much cash at hand and are generally a person who constantly requires a lot of stimulation and activity. You will find a lot of these people in executive positions.

MANY people get dependent because they were in an accident, got prescribed oxycodone or hydrocodone, religiously took their medicine according to the prescribed schedule of two pills every four hours for two weeks, and were then denied a refill and possibly labeled a drug-seeker, leaving them very vulnerable to drug pushers. You will find a lot of these people dead on the street.
Preparing meals takes time out of the day.

Clustering effect of certain events, in other words "when it rains it pours".

I also have theory about end of season trends. End of summer,fall, end of holiday season,etc... is whem threat actors wrap up a campaign and move to another target or take a break. You hear about breaches now but keep in mid dwell time is typically in weeks and it takes a week or two minimum before the company is confident enough to make public disclosure. So start of campaign for anything I see now is early august (including pre-compromise activity) which is the end of summer in the US (at least end of summer break for kids, august-november is the pre-holiday season IMO).
> Don't pretend that "liability reasons" is due to ethical concerns about the safety of the product.

Your view point is "the only reason any business might not want to electrocute people is because they've decided it won't be profitable after wrongful death suits"?

Presumably you work for a business. Would you electrocute people if you determined it would be profitable after wrongful death suits?
The breaker isn't part of the circuit, though. Generator connects to in-wall distribution which connects to appliances. You only go across the circuit breaker on the way to the mains line, which is (hopefully) disconnected. Or else it's not, and indeed you'll get overcurrent protection for any attempt to power your neighbors appliances.
Why?

You'd never register a token with an actually secure 2FA schema (account inaccessible if token inaccessible) with just one device.

The easiest solution to this persistent storage of private citizen's personal data siphoned from their phones or other devices is to carry a burner phone on international trips and weaponize the data that you store on it before you travel. Infect some photos and PDFs with one of those silent exploits that, once it gets into their data center, maps all the drives and wipes them or one that wipes the devices that they are using to siphon all the data at the border crossing. Even sticking them with something like a shitcoin miner would be a win.

Or, target the data storage center directly. I guarantee that someone in their custody chain is dumb enough to click a fake email link or visit that hijacked site to download code that wipes their data center drives. You only need to be lucky once to put them back at square one.

Or better yet, someone could create a repository of shitty memes that can be downloaded to your burner phone before you travel. Just grab a bunch of "Yo' Mama" memes and let the agency hacks waste all their time reviewing the same well-worn collection over and over. The more boring the better.
if you do this you absolutely need to turn off your main breaker.
This is generally why Solar installs don't work with the power out. They just shut off to prevent back feeding into the grid. (That and I think the dc->ac converter syncs with the 60hz of the US grid)

We don't have a battery but if you install a backup battery I believe there is circuity to cut the power off from the grid when powering your house.

I have the Babysense 2 Pro, which may not be exactly the same brand as OP is describing, but does fit their description.

Obviously, it's one of those things where most people will never actually know if it works or not (thankfully), but based on the fact that it goes off without fail every time I forget to turn the damn thing off after picking the baby up fills me with confidence that it does do what it's supposed to.
Really interesting...

What are people doing with their lights where this would ever come up though?

Edit: From reddit, a use case is found [1]:

> They’re actually used my law enforcement whenever they do a raid and seize a computer. If they turn the computer off, they’ll have to try and get past a password. And if the hard drive is encrypted, they’re basically SOL.

> This can be a real issue for things like drug dealers or CP busts, where they need to transport the computer for analysis, but can’t turn it off. So they roll in a specially designed power bank, plug it into the computer’s power strip, then unplug the power strip from the wall. The power bank keeps the strip hot while they transport it.

> Some of them are due to government regulations like 'don't launder money' and 'don't process money for illegal activities'. Which are, like, basic operations of society 101 level stuff.

No, that's wrong. Firstly, as others have pointed out, society long predates any such notions.

Secondly, determining what is illegal activity, and putting a stop to it, is ostensibly the job of law enforcement and the courts, not the bank.
Yeah, Haiti broke away in a slave rebellion before Napoleon sold Louisiana to the United States to raise money for the war effort so it wouldn’t make any sense for the Polish to be sent to Haiti at the end of the war.
IANAL but keeping orbit clear could pretty easily be spun as a Postal Clause/Commerce Clause (Article 1, Section 8) power.
It's less about the difference between these groups and more about the response to these groups. It is your politics showing in your response rather than the person you are replying to... do you think they don't believe that Islamic terrorists exist (which they mentioned)? At no point in the history of the government national security apparatus has the target and its veracity made any difference in the trend line of the government doing more surveillance and curtailing more freedoms. Don't believe me? Do some research on COINTELPRO.
These tags are in English, what about Russian? The Russians might have more interest in internal propaganda in their language, while Ukraine of course needs to influence its allies.

Having said that, I have the feeling that Russia has been surprisingly playing catch up on social media on this war. Ukraine groups has been posting 'from the trenches' combat videos almost from day one while it took a while to Russia to identify it as an useful propaganda source and they are still not as good as the Ukrainian.
thank you so much for this
There are reasonably priced (under $100, though not under $3 like a common receptacle) male power inlets.

https://www.homedepot.com/p/Reliance-Controls-30-Amp-Power-I... is the first one I found on Google (4-wire for 240V center-tapped), but there are many, including a 120V version: https://www.amazon.com/Leviton-5278-CWP-Straight-Flanged-Rec...

Even these, if hardwired to the building's service, represent some risk, but the risk is to the people poking fingers into the box, which could reasonably have a locking cover on it. If that male inlet is powered only via a transfer switch or a back-fed breaker that's normally off, the risk is much, much lower than a double-male cord.
Multiple people in the military in Iraq died in shower trailers on bases (2003-2008) due to improper wiring. I went into one where you could detect current in metal walls (not in the shower area, but an ungrounded piece of backsplash and shelving above sink...); I had someone stand in front of the door to keep people out and went over to the base electricians to yell at them.

They aren't abstractly used to murder hypothetical people. Real humans have had their lives and families and entire countries destroyed by us, using these machines.

We can say we didn't do that, we individually have very little control over who our government kills and how. But as long as we take delight in the implements of that destruction they are right to hate us.
All these pages are blank without JS, which is totally understandable, but, is there an About page or README somewhere just to give the gist first?
Yeah I knew some folks at the time (.com days) who had life changing type money in company stock and they were able to sell a good portion of it at will. They didn't sell... it did not work out for them.

To this day I don't get why they didn't sell at least say $1million and stash it someplace. Sure let the rest ride if you want to do that but man save some. I never asked them about it after their company tanked, I imagine they don't want to think about it.
The high-achieving parents aren't wrong to do this because the value a student gets from a school is largely self-directed and based on the people they meet there. It makes more sense to evaluate based on the student than the school.

Is your kid vulnerable to social anxiety and mental pressure? They would be better off being a bigger fish in a smaller state pond than developing suicidal ideation at a big name institution. You can come up with solid criteria based on knowledge of the world and intuition.

None of the criteria you cite are truly that arbitrary if you inspect them a bit more closely.
I've been shocked by one of these – I was setting up some computers, asked for an extension cord, got handed a male-to-male cord. Didn't notice until I plugged one end in, and grabbed the other while fishing around for it while looking. It never occurred to me that it might be male on both ends.

The shock was very painful but the RCD tripped and saved my life. I'm quite grateful to the regulators here in Australia that made them mandatory back int he 90s.
