I can’t tell if this is a joke about financial engineering tether slowing lowering its backing publicly? Maybe a double entendre?

Tether was originally 100% ‘backed’ and after more and more pressure, they literally did that exact same thing with the percent that was backed in USD.

“It’s 100%. Okay, it’s absolutely backed by 99% usd. JK, 96! I think they are at like 74% now publicly backed by USD?
I think just yesterday they passed legislation that would allow foreigners to sign contracts for 1 year of military service in exchange for citizenship eligibility.
> and use it only on page refresh

Doesn't that mean you can never reflect state updates in the DOM without refreshing the whole page?

> I have never understood why people find state management challenging

Automatically determining what DOM objects need to be updated in response to a change in state and updating them without a page refresh adds a lot of complexity, if you completely ignore that requirement then state management would be simple like you said.

> I have some sympathy for individuals who adopt conspiracy theories.

In some sense is this treating them as children? sheep without any intellectual volition? I do not have much sympathy for individuals who adopt conspiracy theories. If they're adults they're able to think critically and they've decided not to. Sure, despots who use conspiracy theories to manipulate the masses are more culpable, but those of the masses who adopt them uncritically also deserve some blame.

How is this any different from training artists? Other art is copied into their brain and they transform it to create something new.
sorry if that was overly harsh, but yeah descriptive titles are always a positive!
I'm with you on that. I did kickboxing and other things for some years, so I've seen some blood from blunt force.

Blood dries quite fast and/or gets absorbed by the fibers of the clothing and will then turn into a darker shade of red.

Blood has a rather low viscosity. If you beat somebody properly up, there will be lots of little splashes of blood, this looks very "drippy", almost like paint that dropped down. If he's bleeding like that from the mouth, he'd most likely have swallowed some blood coughed it up and all over him. The sweatshirt would look very different at least.

If you beat someone up, you'll also have bruises all over his face. Normally you'd see green and blue eyes and bruises on his face, especially his cheeks. Some slightly missed hits always happen, especially when the opponent tries to duck or move away. This looks too "precise" and accurate for some random beat up.

Pretty much only if they support the Taliban or ISIS though, who they're allegedly fleeing from. If someone fled from Russia because they didn't want to fight in Ukraine, but then sent money to Russia "for the war efforts", would you consider that reasonable?
Why would we do that?
No, no truce. A truce can only happen when Russia leaves Ukraine and pays restitution.

Otherwise, you'd be creating an incentive for countries to invade smaller countries and then ask for a truce when they're losing.

Battery life of ThinkPad that supports Linux with TLP installed and properly configured will be very similar to Windows. And to address FUD from other reply to your question: AFAIK official Firefox builds for Linux use PGO as well, however PGO has quite less impact on battery life than what another commenter suggests.

Yep, I had this too. `pip3 install -U pip setuptools` took care of it. (If you get an error about pip3, try `pip` instead)
> When people adopt conspiracy theories, they are unsatisfied with some aspect of their place in the world and they may feel no one is caring for them properly. Or they feel that the world is behaving improperly and they want it to return to the state they are used to. It is very easy to blame one group.

Either that or something else entirely. I personally know a few people I would firmly place in the conspiracy corner. What I noticed are very different motivations for conspiracy theories (the absurd ones). Some use it for fun, some for boredom, some to get/have an explanation, some to have a sense or a mix of them and there are certainly more aspects to it.

> It is very hard to realize that every human is an individual actor with their own emotions and motivations and moral history.

But you would not deny that conspiracies do exist, right? The term is so widely misused, that I want to make clear that conspiracy theories in their actual meaning doesn't tell you if they are absurd or not. We saw with Iraq war and NSA mass surveillance how this can actually happen and stay clandestine for quite some time.
>... I don't appreciate companies calling me a monster...

At no point in that quote were you called a monster, nor were you specifically blamed for anything. This sentence is key:

>I sympathize with people that are not pro regime but ultimately even those tax dollars they may generate go to the regime.

I empathize with how difficult the Namecheap issue may have been for you, but Namecheap did not call you a monster. They simply didn't want the tax dollars generated from you going to a cause they may not support, even if that was never your intention. Simple as that.
This doesn't seem like a great idea, if you only have Russian citizenship. You may be forced to go back to Russia at any point due to immigration issues, and once you do, you will be arrested for avoiding mandatory service/draft (if one comes...if one doesn't come, then you didn't need to flee)
I feel like recent considerations on the need to be creative in producing prompts for AIs like Stable Diffusion to work on/with promotes the argument that a human is sufficiently involved in the process (some times!) to warrant a claim to ownership of the copyright. If they trained the AI then I think it would be a no-brainer in favour of the human being a creative input into the creation of the work.

Just my personal opinion.

They very well might be, with step 1 of the plan being "delay".

I'm surprised no one is chiming in from the LAMP era. Maybe I was just in a bubble, but I feel like before modern cloud providers, folks deploying on VPSs tried to keep operational complexity lower by running their database on the same box until they couldn't anymore.

In my experience, I just cached the living hell out of the apps to avoid the I/O from the database. Providers in those days had huge issues with noisy neighbors, so I/O performance was quite poor.

Is there a difference here?

With code, you literally copy it and put it in a device and fail to provide the source, breaking the GPL.

With a copyrighted set of images, you scan those and break them down into some set of data and then never need to actually copy the images themselves -- my understanding anyway.

Does that set of data contain copied works? Or is it just a set of notes about the works that have been viewed by the AI?
I like it. I really dislike working with under-performers and people who just refuse to do due diligence on their end. I dislike working with people who always want you to come over to their frame of mind rather than trying to get into yours or meet in the middle. I saw a ton of people coasting during Covid. People need to get negative feedback when they deserve it.
it's kind of obvious.

The eyes have impressive dynamic range.

Moonlight is 250000x dimmer than sunlight, but you can still see things illuminated by moonlight once your eyes adjust.

Neptune is 29 AU from the Sun, so by inverse square law, the sunlight is 29^2=840x dimmer on Neptune than Earth. Visibility should be decent out there. Neptune will stand out pretty well against the perfect blackness of space.

There's reasons to be optimistic that the solution to preventing this type of attack (which is so troubling precisely because the difficulty of patching it is utterly colossal) might yet be around the corner. Band-aid mitigations, like programmable eSIMs and tethering one's phone to an online identity (as Google Fi does) have existed for a while now, neither of which is an ideal solution. I was surprised recently though by what sounds like credible speculation that Apple's next iPhone release may drop the SIM card slot completely. If true, I'm guessing that could be the Zugzwang that will force mainstream wireless carriers, notoriously allergic to investing in their own infrastructure, to finally make the needed upgrades to achieve a post-SIM card future — much in the same way, I'm hoping, that the elimination of the audio jack forced the adoption of Bluetooth on even the most viscerally reluctant consumer.

Just to mention it here, too (I wrote more in a cousin comment), Intel's own Software Development Manuals [0] explicitly talks about all three of these things.

Mainly this bit: "Foreshadow’s experience is the latest example of a rapidly escalating cycle of physical violence that is taking hold of criminal SIM-swapping communities online. Earlier this month, KrebsOnSecurity detailed how multiple SIM-swapping Telegram channels are now replete with “violence-as-a-service” offerings, wherein denizens of the underground hire themselves out to perform various forms of physical violence — from slashing tires and throwing a brick through someone’s window, to conducting drive-by shootings, firebombings and home invasions."
I don't get why you're getting the hate here. This is a known issue, and I don't see how censoring you from discussing it is going to help. You are not being disrespectful and are providing sources and facts to back you up. Meanwhile reddit like "funny" comments are left here but having a debate on mistranslation by western scholarship is some how deemed to be a flamewar.

The reason to be afraid of raw eggs is that they contain

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avidin

which binds very tightly to Biotin and could cause B7 deficiency if you ate raw eggs all the time. The affinity of Avidin to Biotin is exceptional for a protein so I like the name which could be associated with "avid" (binds tightly) and "aves" (latin for bird)
That’s a really big “if”. In my experience, most application engineers aren’t very good at SQL because they don’t have to be; most apps just don't ever reach a scale where it matters, and something like Rails or Django with N+1 queries all over the place performs just fine.

I'm sympathetic about the reasons they have decided to not think critically. Also remember that adult does not mean perfect brain.

---

To put this another way - Michael Shermer writes and talks about weird things that people believe and shows why they are not true. This is good. But sometimes it seems like he has a sense of superiority about it. It's like atheists telling people there are no gods and that it is silly to believe in god. Do you need a sense of superiority to believe these things yourself? Do you need the other person to feel bad about the wrong thing they believed? At times it may be expressed as intellectual bullying.

I don't think it's infantilizing to recognize that we make assumptions when we are young that we hold throughout our lives. We learn how to process sensations and emotions when we are young. Of course the way we do that processing matures with age, but not all at the same rate; and some things may not mature. People can act very childish when they are denied something they feel they are entitled to, for instance.
Very cool project. One thing that seems lacking, however, is the ability to join a single machine into multiple subnets - what if, based on the example given halfway down the page here [0], I wanted to have access to resources in both the `engineering` and `straylight` subnets? It's not clear to me that innernet lets my computer be part of both, since 'you are your IP address'.

Microsoft announced their voice transcription technology a couple years ago and were also touting ~97-98% accuracy which was actually better than human transcription error rates. The errors are usually in part people garbling their own speech, or they move their head while talking and the microphone misses a syllable. Anything in that error bar would probably fall under "reasonable doubt"

For those of you who speak German, I can highly recommend her interview with Günter Gaues [1].

I was wondering why they don't move the interest rate up continuously over a period instead of flat jumps. Is the shock of jumping up in one day useful economically?

No matter how evil a person is, they always see themselves as the victim. Every person I have ever met sees themselves as a victim. I am pretty sure Hitler saw himself as a victim as well.

Here the kidnapper, thief and potential murderer sees himself as a victim because he couldn't steal as many millions of dollars as he wished he could. I shouldn't be surprised by this behavior, but it still makes you laugh.
This approach is very appealing to me :) curious about how people handle schema migrations when using this approach.

I segment sqlite files (databases) that have the same schema into the same folder. I haven't really had a case where migrations was really a concern, but I could see it happening soon.

Seems like in my deployment, I'm going to need an approach to loop over dbs to apply this change... I currently have a step of app deployment that attempts to apply migrations... but it is more simplistic because the primary RDBMS (postgresql) just appears to the application as a single entity which is the normative use-case for db-migrate-runners.
