Uh yeah, generously assuming 25% margins on $40k revenue, that’s like a 700x P/E… for a deli.
As long as fine are small enough to be treated as a running cost, the companies and their shareholders won't care about breaking or bending the rules. It's great that the SEC investigated this behavior, but fine is nothing more than a slap on the wrist.
I think in the time period in question, those were two separate McAfee programs, and only one of them was shareware.

Congratulations, you have effectively reinvented solder paste, but without the flux. /s

Like the others here, I'm not convinced this is better in any way than the "normal" method, or just using solder paste.
"Russia wants the taps capable of being turned ON at their discretion, not permanently broken."

There's two assumptions embedded in this sentence.

Firstly, who is saying it is permanently broken? If the repairs are cheap, Russia may decide the cost of that is worth the amount of distrust it has introduced.

Secondly, how do you know that Russia hasn't decided that NS2 will become a sunk cost, due to the way that EU has committed to diversifying away from Russia? If Russia has decided that NS2 is a sunk cost, it's actually optimal to destroy it if destroying it gives some value.

Remember in the 80's when republicans were aghast at musicians raising aid to help the starving people in Ethiopia, all the while screaming the Sam Kinnison line, "Nothing grows here you live in a f*king desert!!!"
Not for third party apps, the ABI is not stable yet.
This criticism doesn't seem like it fits for the actual content of the article. I read through it and didn't see much appeal to authority going on here, it's arguments mixed with opinion and justification/examples.
Ångström is currently approved by NIST for use with the SI, so I don’t think it’s quite in the same category as mmHg and hogs heads and pound force.

I agree pm is a better choice than mÅ, but I’m not positive mÅ wouldn’t pass NIST internal review, especially if it’s in common use in the field.

> I don’t think it’s wrong to allow people to take risks if they know what they are getting into.

The problem is that people always agree to this until their house burns and their child dies and then they feel like society didn’t do enough to protect them. It’s just the human condition.

Thank you, and ha! An emphatic yes to all the points you raised! It's especially daunting when there are multiple vendors with incompatible point-in-time hygiene setups, a situation I faced at the beginning of setting up Didact.

Also, this was really my first time with equities - my professional trading career was derivatives-focused - both listed (CME) and OTC (FX forwards/swaps). I think I lost the first few months simply trying to reorient my style of thinking.

Water under the bridge I guess.
This can definitely be non-zero if we put effort into it. After all, these people are buying gas, no?
IANAL, but it'll be the Feds. Wire fraud. Ultimately somebody pays some money. It's across state lines. And it was done fraudulently. It will be the US person that gets hit for it.

Your take on Odessa is wrong on so many levels. For starters, the total number of people who died there was 45, not 300, and most of them weren't ethnic Russians, but rather locals (who are mostly Ukrainians, even if many of them are Russophone) who supported Yanukovich. Neither did it happen out of the blue - it was preceded by street fights involving firearms (and some of people carrying those firearms were later in the Trade Union House), said fights triggered by an attack by a pro-Yanukovich mob on an anti-Yanukovich protest.

A 240V car charger is like $1000. They're not that expensive.
> there’s a point where it doesn’t make sense for the state to socialize the cost of rescuing / protecting people who choose to take that level of risk.

I wonder if that opinion will apply to all the people that will be inundated by water in the bay area in the next century.
Hmmm. Who’s worldview does this sound like? Something something real america…
Eh I've had decent experiences with BT in cars, there are some truly terrible implementations out there though.

My current vehicle doesn't have a functional BT connection, because some idiot put it behind a voice activation (and the mic broke).

I don't think this is the long term future, though - I've seen it work really well, if consumers actually start caring about how to connect to their cars it will work better.

BT will always "just work" - Android Auto and Carplay (never used) are enterprise monstrosities you must sign your soul for in blood that don't work on Thursdays, by comparison.

Yeah yeah I'm sure it does some app thing but I honestly don't car, what with cellphones becoming less reliable over time. I only want to play music in my car, BT works great (once it is setup).
I don't think this is true, most companies have chargers only accessible to their employees?
I discovered these giant stupid wallpapers not to long ago when I was cleaning up my partners computer. They were taking up something like 20% of the total disc space on the machine, and there's absolutely no way to get rid of them. Very annoying!
Also, if Russia can easily repair this damage, it isn't really jeopardizing NS2. People here are assuming that this is the end of NS2. What a propaganda coup if the repairs are fairly cheap and they can sow this much distrust for that small financial cost.
I closed my google pay account and they just keep the money. Apparently they have no mechanism to send it to you. If it weren’t retarded and criminal it’d be funny.
Is this proof that Hans Niemann cheated?
I can think of use cases in academic research for example.

Many pieces of code run only a handful times but potentially move a lot of data. Sometimes reimplementing existing code in C/Haskell/Rust, including finding equivalent libraries, writing tests, and debugging, only because the computation turned out to be heavier than I had expected is not a good use of time. If that’s the place where I’m at, PyPy, mypyc, etc., might just do the trick.
Nord Stream: Tie-ins and hyperbaric welding
This is kind of a weird op-ed. It frames this as though the costs are all red marker, but the costs of rebuilding include labor and materials and help to reinvigorate local economies. I'm sure there is a net cost, but it has been serviceable so far.

Insurance isn't mentioned at all in the article. WUI areas have become nearly impossible to insure, even if you're doing all the things right for making your property fire-resistant (and most homeowners in these areas aren't). As long as California's housing market stays red-hot, there will still be another sucker willing to pay for California's state-insurance-plan-of-last-resort, but someday, somehow, something's gonna change and all of a sudden a lot of people won't be able to afford homeowner's insurance, and that's going to gut a lot of the fire-prone small towns.

Newer state building codes are much more fire-resistant. Structures in the town of Paradise that had been built in the last 10 to 15 years largely all survived, even when all neighboring buildings were destroyed. New construction going into these places isn't going to burn the same way the old construction did; future costs will be less devastating, and it takes time for fuels to build up to the levels necessary for apocalyptic events.

The state, also, is slowly getting less dumb about preventative fuel maintenance and the issues around prescribed burning are getting worked on.

"Should these places exist at all" is about as fair a question as whether Phoenix or Las Vegas or New Orleans should exist, but it's kind of a boring argument because there's no state-run central planning that is going to forcibly relocate everyone or refuse to rebuild any of them again.

A more interesting question is, "what do the changing conditions over the next 10 years mean for where I should live?"
How would you like to constantly wonder if Steven in HR, who has enough of your personal info to take out loans in your name, can just vanish tomorrow without a trail?
Completely agree, but at the same time a lot of people (myself included) criticize Germans for being terrible customers, because they expect things they buy to last a very long time, be repairable and also cheap. I.e. they don't buy often. Contrast that to how Americans are considered to be "good consumers".
Because Putin's interest is Putin, not Russia.
It can happen. There's nothing you can do except contact someone who works at Google. They have access to internal support that you don't have.

Another possibility is to pay for a different G Suite plan on a new account and escalate this to their support through that.
Interview with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman – AI for the Next Era [video]
Agreed, writing production-grade, user-facing software is slow, which is what we spend lots of our time on. On the other hand, writing small programs to automate boring stuff can be incredibly fast.
It's amazing to me how short-sighted many views on Apple Car are. Service is key.

Apple won't be following the model of the existing car makers. They WILL NOT sell cars direct to consumer. That's the key insight. They will not have showrooms, sales teams, or public service centers. You won't buy their cars directly at all.

Instead, they are going for the end goal: Fully autonomous electric vehicles on-demand. This is the holy grail Tesla and others are going for. I don't know why this isn't obvious to everyone. Most of us are still stuck in the old paradigm. Apple is thinking bigger.

The Apple Car will not have a steering wheel. Complete Level 5 autonomy is not some add-on feature, it is the key enabler that allows the entire product the exist. You don't need public service centers, because Apple will manage their own fleet, manage their own charging infrastructure, etc.

The user experience is simple. You tell Siri I want to go to X by X time. The car arrives, it drops you off. That's the end. No bullshit. Fewer features. Less hassle. And in the end, less cost for the end user. The perfect UX. That's the Apple vision.

Note, this is also Tesla's vision. But the other makers don't see this yet, and as a result will likely be bankrupt within 10-15 years.
Nobody knows what the "main Russian goals" are. I mean, I'd hope that nobody is taking this whole "denazification" business seriously.

There's a very real possibility that the actual goal of this entire mess is/was for Putin to get into the history textbooks as one of the great Russian leaders before he dies from cancer (or whatever it is that he has).

No, I don't remember this. It sounds made up. Do you have a citation?
I’ve been involved in hiring at multiple companies with fully remote positions, and all expected travel to a team building offsite at frequencies around once every 6-12 months. From everyone I have talked to at other companies too that is a standard expectation, and for very good reasons - humans work so much better as a team (communication, empathy, charity, etc) with just that small amount of face time.
Makes sense, America is a developing country.
It's not a proxy war. It's just a war. Russian imperialism is what caused the war. Don't take away their credit and give it to the US.
Those who have something to lose would not have done it (aka the countries that need the gas, or the country that provides it). Poland is a very interesting idea, since even if they are caught, they are the ones providing the gas to Europe now, and refusing to deal with them is not an option.
TensorFlow.js matrices are immutable, which puts more restrictions on your programming style that standard Numpy. You cat get immutable, GPU-enhanced matrices for Python, too.
I agree in the general sense, but on average the fines in this case were over $100m. That’s like 1/6 of BAC’s liquid assets, for example.
I've maintained a well-used online Esperanto dictionary for several years now: https://www.tujavortaro.net.

The whole dictionary is loaded client-side and a lookup is performed on each keypress. Because of the search speed, it's surprisingly fun to use this dictionary to explore the language. I'd like to see such dictionaries built for other languages too.
> So again, why is this specific point being dredged up this often recently?

This sort of fraud has always been around, however covid-19 changed the equation dramatically in favour of the scammers, due to many more companies being willing and able to hire remote employees.

This has allowed the scammers to scale in ways that were previously not possible.

As the profitability increases due to scale, more scammers are attracted to it, which leads to more people experiencing it, which leads to more people talking and posting about it, which leads to those posts ending up on the front page of HN.

I don't think it's a driven narrative, however one of the consequences will be companies lowering their appetite for remote-only work.
All of this, but it was the French. They have tons of nuclear capability, good subs, and a top-5 intelligence agency few know exists.

As prices on rentals rise high enough there won’t be a renters anymore - because at 100% tax all the landlords would sell.

At that point, all housing is owned by the housed and they can decide if they want more supply (they won’t).

Until the hardware totally gave out, I used a Sony Vaio P which is of similar size, but had a keyboard usable by a human being. I loved the thing as just a terminal on the go, if I had ever repaired the 3G modem it would have been literally perfect. Sadly the hardware is miserably old now and nobody has many anything like a replacement with a keyboard that doesn’t have its own stress injuries named after it.
Even if China manages to conquer Taiwan (they don't yet have enough amphibious lift capacity to make it stick), the important fabs are likely to be wrecked. And even if China manages to capture some equipment intact, they won't be able to operate it without support from ASML and other foreign vendors.

US politicians have finally woken up to the risk of being dependent on China for strategically important semiconductors, hence the support for measures like the CHIPS Act. The window for China to be able to credibly threaten us with sanctions is rapidly closing.

Absolutely, we would not hire someone with such a hard line, and we hire a lot of remote. There’s a good reason… a tiny tiny amount of in person time every year or so pays outsized dividends in team productivity
I'm Russian (both ethnically and citizenship).

The Russian perspective is basically, "we had an awesome empire, now we want it back". All the rhetoric about teh evil NATO etc is just dressing that up.
This is evidenced by the layers of settings UIs in modern windows from old school systems properties dialog to newfangled display settings, and in between. It is horrible. They just bundle these UIs atop one another there is no overall usability oversight.
I am glad that a lot of people in this thread have figured out the fraud and caught the rogue employee early on. But the reason this fraud is so prevalent is because it works.

I have a friend who had someone else go through the interview process for him and ended up getting hired at one of the top 10 largest banks in US.
Not only that, but because he was grossly under qualified for this job, he hired someone to teach him how to do his job. He works his normal 8-5, then he screen shares with this guy and they work together to complete his tasks.
I'm a bit surprised that this worked and that they still haven't caught on, he has been working there for 8-10 months now. He has been sharing company intellectual property of a top US bank to foreigners for 8-10 months.
The saddest part about this is that, he isn't a dumb, he is knowledgeable enough to get a decent job without cheating. In fact he has worked, both legally and ethically, for reputable companies.
Are Apple executives aware that blanket sanctions are an illegal act of war under the Geneva convention?

wait, so how does diagonalization account for this? The argument, as i recall, was that every real number in the "fake list" differs from the generated real number by at least 1 position in the decimal expansion.

But doesn't this argument depend on the assumption that every real number has a unique decimal expansion?

SEC Fines Tether’s Former Auditor $1.5M for ‘Improper Professional Conduct’
I'm gradually starting to see X11/Xlib as a solution for cross platform desktop apps. It is the native GUI API for most UNIX operating systems. Ports exist for Windows(win11) and Mac which makes X11 technically portable to them as well.

Its not exactly an elegant solution I have to admit. But the licensing problems with QT make a lot of people nervous, GTK seems to be pretty polarizing, and for whatever reason WxWidgets and FLTK never really got much adoption/didn't progress very far.

Yes, the software (at least the not Play-store parts, into which more and more functionality is moving) is nominally open-source.

The restriction is on hardware - phone manufacturers that wish to sell phones with Google's software preinstalled are contractually forbidden (by Google) from selling versions with Android forks. Meaning you cannot hire any phone manufacturer if you want to sell phones with forked Android installed - you have to set up your own production lines.

You could root phones, but then the many apps (such as banking) that detect this will refuse to work. You would not have a commercially viable product, because only geeks will buy it.

Essentially, Google made sure that any kind of privacy-first alternative cannot develop, because it would involve burning too much money, even for billionaires.

It's so easy to spin a just so story around incentives to think anyone is responsible.

US did it because their gas industry want to sell to Europe, and also Biden was clipped saying he can stop NS2.

Russia did it because the repair costs are low and hence the distrust propaganda value is worth that cost, and because EU is going to stop buying their gas anyway so may as well capitalize on the sunk cost.

Forgetting incentives for a minute and instead looking at recent patterns of behavior and reckless disregard for both others as well as self-preservation, my default assumption is that Russia did it. This is the best lens to use when the incentive picture is murky, because it clearly is murky here.

The real integration services like Fastmail need is for DNS. It's crazy that I need to understand DNS records and copy/paste them in order to have someone else host email on my behalf. When I sign up for Fastmail, there should be a quick OAuth flow out to my domain registrar for me to delegate a [sub]domain for Fastmail to control, which returns a token they can use to set all the A, AAAA, CNAME, SPF, DKIM, etc up for me. There is a protocol[0] for such a thing, but adoption has been slow, and I found it a bad fit for open source projects.

The iPhone doesn't fold.
To me, this comes down to two key points:

1. The new iPhone is not different enough from the previous two generations. Even for the Pro, with the screen off, it is hard to tell the difference. Things loose their status symbol symbolism when your status symbol looks the same as an older model, or a refurb.

2. It is all formulaic. This may be more personal, but I used to eagerly await the Apple keynotes, even post-Jobs when they were somewhat predictable. I could normally expect _something_ new. Now it is just the same old shit:

- Silly intro

- "Here is how great our sales were", with an optional jab at Android

- Best iPhone ever

- Best iOS ever

- Something about macOS to fill time

- Curtains.

It isn't exciting, there is no reason to tune in. Most people will upgrade at their cycle. There is no motivator to go off-cycle to get that must-have or must-show-off feature. There is no excitement.
Taligent had their own compiler and used something similar to what the ObjC 2 ABI uses for ivars for all member variables and functions to eliminate the fragile base class problem. “Using C++” may have been part of their problem, but not for the same reasons as it was for BeOS.
