The third party keyboard apps are a big question for the OP.

Another consideration, there are companies that track and sell geolocation data. It's "anonymized" but so precise you know the street address a user resides at. It is not a stretch to consider "anonymized" retargeting from keyboard inputs.

I was dismissive of it in the past, as comments voted higher here are. However I've seen enough weird ads show up within minutes of making jokes about obscure topics that I suspect there is something going on.

The piece that might be missing here is third parties collecting signals, "anonymizing" them, and then ads get re-displayed through Facebook, Google, etc. It may not be the major ad platforms doing it directly. In theory this should be harder now with the iOS tracking restrictions.

For the skeptical, consider Avast's Jumpshot. Here millions of users thought they were protecting themselves when their raw browsing stream was being sold live to third parties. I They aren't the only company that has done that. https://www.theverge.com/2020/1/30/21115326/avast-jumpshot-s...

A camera can absolutely stop a whole lot, assuming there is willpower to follow up on what is recorded. If that is the case, the camera will act as a deterrent.
Crop rotation is agriculture 101 at this point. A diversity in crops being grown could very well lead to higher yields overall, including that of rice and wheat, even if they are not grown as often.
> No, the money is sanctioned, he has to block it from being used anywhere and he must report it within 10 days according to the law

This is not correct.

> U.S. persons may have received unsolicited and nominal amounts of virtual currency [...] from Tornado Cash

Because he did not receive those funds from Tornado Cash. He received them from a third party. This third party has interacted with a sanctioned entity (Tornado Cash), but sanctions are not transitive.

You can test this easily w/o cryptocurrency: You may not be allowed to transact with Iran, but you can buy stuff from a Germany company which has business with Iran - until OFAC may want to decide to sanction the Germany company.

The "dusting attacks" the OFAC FAQ refers to are transactions that someone sends directly from the TC smart contract to your wallet.
>Absolutely tragic that the US government's war on anonymous transactions is getting in the way of FOSS receiving donations here

No, the intent of the donation is to cause trouble to FOSS projects and waste their time. Not sure why you're appreciating this. It's like donating stolen property to the local orphanage.
I have no idea what you mean. I cannot get enough information from the context of "OMG." There are many possible interpretations.
That fly-replay header is legit one of the smartest pieces of infrastructure engineering designs I've encountered in years.
This is why we should teach logical reasoning in school...

Bob and Jill both tweet about politics. Bob is 7x more likely to tweet from sources which experts say are more likely than average to spread misinformation. Which of the following is true.

A) Bob tweets more misinformation than Jill.
B) Jill tweets more misinformation that Bob.
C) The presented data is insufficient to make a determination either way.

The correct answer is C. In order to select A or B, you'd need to offer up data about the individual articles being tweeted by Bob and Jill. By relying on data about the underlying domains at large, you rely on the ASSUMPTION that Bob and Jill tweet randomly from their respective sources, without any agency whatsoever.

By pretending that the presented data is sufficient to say that Republicans tweet more misinformation, Neimanlab is, in fact, spreading misinformation, based on poor logic and lazy analysis.
Apparently it is being cashed out and sent to OFAC

Yes, but it is an unfortunate selection of data, as excess death due to Covid in the EU mostly happened in two waves, non of which extended to July. But I don't want to downplay the impact of heat waves, they death spike associated with them is interesting, and underappreciated by the public.

WTF! All other cities in america can do their f*king jobs without erecting this giant panopticon and monitoring every our moment of any slip-up then why cant they? instead of fixing the fundamental issues with policing they keep lowering the baseline expectations & then ask us to sacrifice more liberties. this is a massive overreach and needs to be stopped in its tracks.
Hey! This is a side project I've been working on for a while. It's a free webapp that you can install to your phone's home screen to make it behave like a proper app.

The app's design has prioritized:

- Mobile first design

- Fast startup time

- Basic "back of the napkin" math operations

The app is also fully open source with MIT license, and can be found at https://github.com/jehna/calc-o-pad
The employees obviously are told the functions and APIs that they are implementing have a completely legit use case. That is not hard to believe at all and was the case in Cambridge Analytica scandal, for example.
This makes sense - in my Slavic language, what English language typically calls bread, is not really bread but it is closer to baguette then to the bread.
We consider bread something like sourdough or equivalent style made with yeast. Typically from rye (if you are closer to Germany), mix or just wheat (if you are closer to Hungary/south).
> Now the police can watch in real time from afar, so they aren't at risk of spilling their donuts and coffee in the car while watching close by as residents packages are stolen, car windows broken, and petty theft runs rampant through no enforcement of the law.

This is a direct result of the politicians that the residents elected. When you have a DA that doesn't prosecute offenders and releases them after police go through the work of arresting, gathering evidence, writing reports, booking, etc over and over again you'll start to get police that wont do those things because its simply a waste of their time.
I don't know that they have fewer regulations. Banking regulations follow the guidelines set by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and as a result are very much the same across the developed world. Also it's absolutely not true that looser regulations result in higher interest rates.
'Securing Open Source Software Act' introduced to US Senate
I completely agree (as another employee of FAANG). It's ridiculously hard to do anything against policy once it's set, and trust me, the policies are set. Media overplays a lot of things which aren't just there.

The sad reality is people are very predictable, even with basic data.
> Can anyone from SF or who understands the situation explain?

London Breed ran a representative survey by a sophisticated polling group whose objective is to identify "actions that maximize increase in votes." It's Shorism - https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/08/style/david-shor-democrat... - not specifically his group but in a Darwinian way this is how lots of local elected officials operate now.

So now we understand your question is really, "Why does this particular action affect voting?" We can only speculate. Too few people are victims of property crime for that to be the explanatory variable. I think the kind of people who are never victims of property crime (the majority) react very strongly to the presence of cameras. They also believe that Ring makes them more secure. It's all kind of stupid. But that kind of person votes.
Yep, my third attempt in ten years!

The original was written in "JujuScript", with strong types and novel operators. I pretended it was Haxe, and ran around fixing compiler errors it till it compiled to JavaScript. I built out a small Three.js project to hook it to, built up the features, then refactored it into something I felt was maintainable. I tried preserving the organization of the original script as best as I could.

Sidenote: I belong to the "port it" school of software preservation. My friend who runs the BlastEm project belongs to the "emulate it" school. I've seen both approaches have been employed to preserve Glider, which I think implies how important that game is to people. :)
They're right, recently I've installed some Windows update for my parents and I had to reject like 5 suggested changes - installing Office trial, switching default browser to Edge yet again, and more.

But this goes way beyond the browsers - I've never explicitly installed Keychain on my iphone and yet it shows as an option next to 1password every time I fill in a password field. Google calendar asks me to install an app every time I open a web version on my phone, my work laptop has 1 active notification in system settings for a year because I didn't enable iCloud backup.

I'm not sure what's the solution here. I stick to the apps I use because I know what I'm doing, but so many users will just click "yes" when shown a pop-up. On the other hand, the built-in integrations provide value (e.g. it's better that people use and save random passwords in Keychain than using the same one everywhere). I feel it's always a cat-and-mouse game where the big tech is punished after they've already gained a lot, so they win anyway.
I think they are being downvoted because "not touching it" is not the end of the required action. It is the first step toward getting in compliance.

Sourdough is interesting because it is a yeast plus a lactobacillus to make the lactic acid. Lots of things are cured with lacto fermentation including hot sauce and half sour (not vinegar cured) pickles.

I love making my own fermented hot sauce but as an east coaster i can’t really stand sourdough.
That's extremely baffling to me. Considering the CIA is usually depicted extremely negatively in American movies.
As someone looking for a job, the list is clearly missing item 0.

I see the difference being passive vs. active. The FDA would be active. Getting a bad product, finding a lawyer, filing a court case, getting a court date, going to trial would all be passive. It requires every individual to seek justice in an expensive manner. In addition, timing. Wouldn't it be better to avoid needless injury and death, than having to seek justice after the fact?

Once a bad product enters the market, the market can be forever tainted. Look at China and baby formula.[1] No one trusts the baby formula there now. A few bad apples spoils the bunch. You could look at this as the FDA actually protecting the market by keeping it at a trusted quality.

For me the list is:

- Linux

- gcc, vim, git, make, et al

- KDE

- firefox

- yakuake (terminal that drops down like the old Quake console used to)

- libre office

- mpv

- Steam and Proton (which have made gaming work very well on Linux and have contributed to the complete loss of all productivity gained by any of the above programs).
The $1/kWh is per unit of capacity to store energy. That cost is then amortized over the number of charge/discharge cycles to get the per unit of energy stored cost. Hydrogen storage in underground solution mined cavities is just that cheap. This is the huge advantage hydrogen has for very long term or very rarely used energy storage over batteries.

Storage of a combustible gas underground is already done on a massive scale. Natural gas is already stored, by the millions of tonnes, in just these kinds of caverns. The cost is cheap enough that the entire NG consumption of a region's winter can be stored.

Now, hydrogen also has power related costs: cost/W of electrolysers, compressors, and turbines or fuel cells. But for very long term storage this becomes small compared to the per energy capacity costs.
I also have a theory that sometimes when people say "we were talking about <product> and I never even typed it into my phone or anything, and suddenly I started seeing ads for it the next day!" that the person in the story may not have looked up <product>, but someone else in the conversation might have Googled it or browsed an Amazon listing or something and they have some kind of connection in their ad profiles whether it be that they know these 2 people interact a lot, they're in the same geolocation, same wifi network/IP address, etc.

I'm just not convinced of the always on microphones in phones listening for and processing every single thing considering how much battery drain that would cause, whether the processing is done on device or they're sending all that data to a server to be processed.
Interestingly, I think a more effective approach would be to invert, reporting crimes without the expectation for police follow-up, shining a spotlight on the disgustingly lazy SFPD and their handlers.

The only problem with either of these approaches is that it exposes the accused to vigilante action without due process.
Shhh you're ruining their argument with pesky context.
Were there any other browsers even available on FirefoxOS?
It’s fairly well documented that the iPad was what he’d wanted to have for a while, well before the iPhone existed. IIRC biographies put his first concept of what became the iPad around when the iPod was released.

The iPhone was just a happy accident, something they decided to do with the cool tech they were playing with when working on the iPad, before it was ready.
Lol no, some anti-science luddites repeating Exxon mobile's talking points doesn't make me wrong.

Fire mitigation is such a trivially small part of this, that lay people shouldn't even be thinking about it.

Saying wild fires are natural is like saying lung cancer is natural when someone points out the risks of smoking. It doesn't go to zero if you don't smoke, but in general terms the key takeaway people should have is "smoking causes lung cancer" not "lung cancer is natural and will happen anyway regardless of if people smoke or not"

Not only have I debated this person multiple times, but on a search about settlement a HN thread came up and he had the top comment citing the infamous Mora et al study which makes the naive assumption that required hash for a proof of work network scales linearly with transaction volume, rather than block volume (which come at a constant rate no matter what the total hash is).

This person is a successful troll, and a pathetic thinker.
That is correct, there was no way to have multiple hosts on the same machine. One of the start-ups I helped build (engineer #2) in early 1997 (which still exists today in some form that many young, single men have spent quality time alone with) had a landing page, so that if your browser did not provide the host header, it would give you an index page of all the salacious sub websites/sub-domains available that you could then click on - it was an image map, naturally. We were very careful to keep the heterosexual and the homosexual offerings on physically separated servers so that customers did not complain about "accidentally" clicking on content that they didn't want to see. Latest versions of Netscape at the time supported the host header, but Internet Explorer very explicitly did not. And IE was the default for many people just getting online for the first time outside of AOL/Compuserve.

I camera can't stop anything. Just like laws don't stop anything. Keep in mind that with stopping I mean: blocking an action from being taken. So if I want to deliver a bag of meth to your doorstep, even if you have 99999 cameras on the wall, that bag is not going to be prevented from getting dropped off. Same goes with dropping pipe bombs, stealing packages or breaking in to your car which might also be parked in a place a camera can see.

All it can do (like I wrote, and like you wrote) is act like a deterrent, and, after the fact, when the action has already been taken, be used in follow-up activities.

Now, granted, some people walk around with a mindset of "If I can get away with it I might do it" and then a camera can be enough of a deterrent, but if we're talking about safety, we're not talking about a subset of potential bad actors.

People who are not thinking about consequences or are desperate enough to not care will not be deterred at all by a camera, and some of them might realise that if there are 10000 crimes, small crimes might get less attention than big crimes.

Cameras are mostly useful for when you want to do realtime communication, or when you want to see something after the fact. Oh, and for spying, of course, but that sits nicely under the 'realtime' umbrella.
At this point that would include any ETH that you can't fully trace the provenance of, right?
