> “NATO declared Ukraine will be part of NATO and troops were building on the boarder within months”

Russia Today and Sputnik are great info sources.

you’re welcome to take Russia reasoning at face value, we’ll have to agree to disagree on whether that makes sense.

Their red lines were just as much unserious jokes/farces similar to Sergei lavrov declaring to the world they had no intention of invading literally right before the start of invasion. Take them at face value, everyone has the right to make their own assessment.

But Putin knew invading would strengthen nato. He didn’t care. It was never about nato.
WiFi is trivial to jam... Just run a microwave with a pencil wedged in the door hinge and nobody will be using 2.4g WiFi anywhere in the same block.

Deauth attacks are a distraction.

Or you could just chain it.
Multiple rotors do decrease efficiency and this flight time somewhat, but nowhere near as much as switching from fuel to batteries. The mass energy density of batteries is less than 0.1x fuel. There are some gas-powered quadcopters out there which much longer fight times than the electric ones. Compare an electric CP RC heli to nitro and nitro has much longer fight time. Of course, a combustion engine is usually heavier than electric motors too, so there are diminishing returns from switching to fuel as your fuel or battery to engine mass ratio decreases. But, the main consideration in this regard for flying things is almost always: fossil fuel is way, way more energy dense than batteries in a mass sense. See e.g https://www.batterypowertips.com/comparing-ev-battery-and-fu...
This problem could be mitigated with onboard storage for the cameras. Obviously, it wouldn’t solve the alerting issue, but “wifi went down” is probably already an alert, and with onboard storage, at least the footage could be reviewed.
Government doesn't even have to physically seize anything. They just have to say "transacting with these particular coins is illegal". The blacklisted bitcoin is now worth zero USD, as many individuals receiving money from sanctioned people discovered.

I honestly have no idea why bitcoin is still the most valuable cryprocurrency when projects like Monero exist.
Fair point! Especially the mid-late 60's.

An archive should have everything of what is being archived, legalese notwithstanding: The good, the bad, the beautiful, the ugly, everything. E v e r y t h i n g . If it doesn't have everything, it's not an archive.
thanks for the follow up, that was my understanding but your example is telling.

I will have to check myself.

It always kind of work, but the palette is limited.
For instance I tried charles de gaule and you get something that look like him. But he's depicted talking on a radio or waving his arm around like a politician.

I tried to make him to grocery or play volley ball, it does not really work. While Michael jackson or Dennis Rodman get a way better treatment.

edit :
that vocab file is smaller than I thought. "De Gaule" is not in there but neither Einstein or feiman? I think I missing something.

I Can find "obama", trump or Macron. Unclear about Michael Jackson. No beyonce or Denis Rodman. hmm weird, I had great result with all of them. Like.. recognizable details like tatoo or silly glasses.
I went with the wired network route. I'm sure to most people it seems like the more secure route, but it's important to realize that for outside cameras, you now have ethernet connections accessible from outside. Jamming WiFi is a denies you the ability to record, but external ethernet gives them access to your network. I went with building an isolated network, but I think that's outside the relm of what most consumers can do. A WiFi camera, while not perfect, really does give you the best bang for the buck.

I'm sure we all know that most residential locks can be picked with relative ease, but criminals rarely go through the trouble. The one time a person did "break in" to my house, they just opened an unlocked door. Usually I keep that door locked, a large piece of plywood in front of it, and a table saw braced up against that. Just so happened I worked on a project that day and just forgot to lock the door. Lucky break for her, but trying enough doorknobs she was bound for find some. She had gotten into two other houses that night. She was also tripped out on meth and couldn't have operated a WiFi jammer if she wanted to.

So, yea, a WiFi camera isn't great, but it's still going to get 99% of criminals out there. Next we just need WiFi jammer alarms.

Here is the study I am referring to [1]. As far as studies go, this one is fairly rigorous and of what I would consider to be high quality based on several factors related to the study design.

This study in particular looked at early TR (6am-2pm) vs mid afternoon (1pm-8pm) TR vs no TR; and early TR had the greatest metabolic benefits by a long shot:

> "Furthermore, eTRF (early TR), but not mTRF (mid-day TR), improved fasting glucose, reduced total body mass and adiposity, ameliorated inflammation, and increased gut microbial diversity. No serious adverse events were reported during the trial. In conclusion, eTRF showed greater benefits for insulin resistance and related metabolic parameters compared with mTRF"

I have a working theory that mass appeal ruin the original content.

To your credit, as a non-Punisher patron of geek arts, you're probably right. The spirit of the original comics is likely expressing a deeper message than most people could understand from a cursory glance and watching one of the dumbed-down movies.

To your discredit, the population at large generates a mythos that transcends the character and strips away all sense of subtlety. To anyone who doesn't know the comics intimately, The Punisher is a guy who's like Batman with more brutality.

And, at the risk of redundancy, I'm convinced this is true of pretty much any character, fictional or non-: caricaturization of their greatest qualities, then memorialized as a god of [subject matter expertise]. The _only_ time I've ever seen a deviation from this is when a character is hard to place because they're all over the map (e.g., Ben Franklin, Christopher Lee).
I can't find the actual complaint, but the wire there seems to say they are charging them under antifraud rules, not insider trading rules.

"The SEC’s complaint charges each of the 32 defendants with violating federal antifraud laws and related SEC antifraud rules and seeks a final judgment ordering the defendants to pay penalties, return their allegedly ill-gotten gains with prejudgment interest, and be subject to permanent injunctions from future violations of the antifraud laws."

It's a bit confusing though, because earlier in the same article they seem to imply it's for insider trading. But they don't seem to actually say that's what they are being charged with.

A few seconds of googling clearly demonstrates MANY circumstances in which the NATO is encouraged or required to fire warning shots.

Seeing as you struggled to discover any information before declaring the other commenter incorrect, let me fetch some for you.

[Above source, page 159, Bosnia 2001]
"Further, warning shots were permitted, even encouraged,
and the use of deadly force against assailants fleeing an attack was not
even covered. "

[Above source, page 161, footnote 24]
See infra notes 108-16 and accompanying text for a discussion of how current ROE require U.S. troops to use both verbal warning and warning
shots, while the DOJ policy on the use of deadly force does not require the
agency's officers to employ either of these actions.

So, while the DOJ has policy which excludes warning shots for US military, they were also ordered that they must use both verbal and warning shots as a part of their rules of engagement.

>Calling BS on this story, sorry. No one in this world is training to fire a "warning shot". That is from the movies - full stop

I'm sure if I looked harder I can find many, many more examples. Please do at least the faintest whiff of research before declaring someone else incorrect - full stop.

So they'd seized a safe that contained a note saying where the money/Bitcoin were hidden, but they didn't have the combination to the safe, and they didn't know if anybody else had a copy of the note.

Calling those "seized bitcoins" is definitely stretching the truth in my opinion. And the Government,ent/prosecution knew this - from the article:

"As a backup, Trezor hardware wallets can generate a “seed phrase,” a combination of as many as 24 words that can re-create those private keys on another device. In essence, anyone who knows the magic words and an additional PIN can take control of the Bitcoin. Unplugging the wallet device and physically locking it away is no protection. Brown warned that Larry could remotely take Bitcoin and that the government would be powerless to stop it. “Until we can secure them and transfer them to a government wallet, those are available for him or his family members to transfer,” he said in court. US District Judge Beryl Howell granted bail anyway."

Having said that, the brother was an idiot for ever thinking he'd get away with it. Unless he was going to torch his houde and fly to Belieze before the cops caught up with him, he was bound to get caught. As the article posts out:

"An informant told them Gary had asked his advice on Bitcoin gambling services, records show. The source believed Gary wanted to use them to mix Bitcoin he took from Larry. Gary is “not the sharpest tool in the shed and did not think through the consequences for his brother” before he moved the Bitcoin, the informant said."

> It may be the case that these two processes lead to similar outcomes. But for me, it is much easier to stay faithful to an IF lifestyle than a "continuously calorically restricted" lifestyle. I find the binary aspect of the IF system to be very helpful. If the other system is easier for other folks to maintain, that's great, and they should do that.

In the 8-16 IF study I linked to, the IF/TRE group actually had worse adherence:

> Self-reported adherence to the diets was 1002 of 1088 (92.1%) in the CMT group (did not miss any meals) and 1128 of 1351 (83.50%) in the TRE group
Concrete Mathematics is not a prerequisite, but an expanded version of the "Mathematical Preliminaries" section of TAOCP. (More precisely, Knuth and later Graham used to teach a course at Stanford based on that section of TAOCP; the book Concrete Mathematics is based on the lecture notes of that course.)

That apart, I (and Knuth) recommend just skipping the math parts when they get hard. You can always come back to them later if you're interested.

This is what he says in the preface to Vol 1 (p. viii):

> A few words are in order about the mathematical content of this set of books. The material has been organized so that persons with no more than a knowledge of high-school algebra may read it, skimming briefly over the more mathematical portions; yet a reader who is mathematically inclined will learn about many interesting mathematical techniques related to discrete mathematics. This dual level of presentation has been achieved […] also by arranging most sections so that the main mathematical results are stated before their proofs. […]

> A reader who is interested primarily in programming rather than in the associated mathematics may stop reading most sections as soon as the mathematics becomes recognizably difficult. On the other hand, a mathematically oriented reader will find a wealth of interesting material collected here. Much of the published mathematics about computer programming has been faulty, and one of the purposes of this book is to instruct readers in proper mathematical approaches to this subject. Since I profess to be a mathematician, it is my duty to maintain mathematical integrity as well as I can.
I think this is a critical point.

Making Twitter profitable cannot possibly include magnifying the alt-right minority of the U.S. Driving the moderate users and progressives away with TFG and moderation changes that allow QAnon misinformation would severely damage Twitter as a company.

I also guarantee some group of savvy developers are building Twitter 2.0 and will release it if and when Musk starts destroying the company from within.

Employees will quit. Users will abandon the site.

And I still think Musk is clueless about the tech stack. It's mindbogglingly complex and he's not going to replace the hardcore tech staff with sycophants off the street.

There's a necessary equilibrium required to keep Twitter going and growing the platform. I just don't think he's going to outright gut it and turn it into a mindless "free speech" platform. The shit-posts would humiliate him.

Or he turns it into Maga Social and doesn't care about financial losses.
Yeesh. The concept of marginal change (from Calculus) is valuable in all sorts of situations. It's a basic concept for business and social policy.
How fast is the McDonald's wifi or how slowly does one have to drive past to get a 1 hour video uploaded? Sure, it's MP4 compressed, but still 1 hour at 1Mbps is still a 3GB file.

I haven't been to MickD's in a really long time, but do they have free/open wifi with no captive portals? Seems like a big liability risk for a corp their size (or any fast food chain) to have it wide open.

Global electricity demand growth was met by renewable power in H1 2022
I've yet to be in a country were sales are not skewed toward local cars. Sweden lots more Volvos than anything else (and definitely Teslas), France, lots more Citroen and Peugeot than anywhere else, Australia: Holden and Ford, US: lots of cars that drive nowhere else (GM, Chevy...).

Regarding outselling most other car manufacturers: this seems to be the Tesla realitity distortion, it is likely true for electric cars but for all cars VW delivered ~5 M cars in 2021 vs Teslas 900k
That would be an extreme logistical and costly nightmare.

Tesla doesn't operate the dealership model, which all tend to double up as a service station. So it's far more difficult for customers to get to the telsa service stations. Since there's less, that also means they'd be insane waits when the product comes back in.
As a Tesla customer I’m so used to being constantly gaslighted that it’s a pleasant surprise when they’re only removing features from new cars rather than my existing one.

I was massively downvoted and flagged for expressing similar concerns, and kept getting new accounts all saying the same thing.. "Zatko's reputation speaks for itself".

Power line Comms is very much alive in residential settings... There are devices that can cram gigabit data rates onto home AC wiring. They're a great alternative to running new ethernet runs.

They are controversial with other radio users, because while the devices themselves don't emit much RF energy, your home wiring and wiring in the street will typically radiate most of the high frequency data into the air, disrupting FM radio and lots of other sub 500 Mhz radio users.

I think it's a general lack of gratefulness. The author considers sqlite as something to be taken without even saying thank you to drh. All he has to say is, that's a nice project you have there, it would be shame if something happened to it. Like to qemu.
Nah I think it's a logistics and cost thing. Adding several extra sensors dramatically increases the complexity of logistics, building the car and the overall costs.

This exists in every domain, and is - perhaps - inevitable. Look at what SEO has done to web search.
I mean... maybe? But I highly doubt 'additional costs' would bridge the $34B gap between the figures. You also have to consider the damage accepting the settlement would do to Twitter in the eyes of the markets / shareholders. It would be huge and would likely have an enormous impact on their share price. Also, if Musk did go to trial and then lost, I would hope there is some way he would then be compelled to pay Twitter's legal costs.
For me it was Elon Musk calling a rescue worker a pedophile and then doubling down on the claim.

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/jul/15/elon-musk...
I got the impression (from people more wonkish than me) that he attempted to beat up Twitter's valuation / stock price in order to negotiate a discount, and when that failed, the bot prevalence accusations (true or not) were a pretext to back out of a purchase that he doesn't want to make for other reasons.

From there I took a few liberties for a laugh, apologies if it didn't land.

Easy jammability is not a necessary property of wireless networks. There's lots of research about it and military applications.
Cooling is in short supply when the aeroplane is parked on the ground. In some climates external air conditioning units are required to maintain a manageable cabin temperature.

Hence why the majority of airline fleets have white-painted upper fuselages.
You're not completely honest here, though. It was either Type A jack for power supplies without a cable, or Type B micro jack for fixed cables, and the latter very much specifies the port on the device.
In what world is cost and supply chain not engineering?!?
Thank both of you for proving my point that you all will irrationally argue "any even marginally imperfect security is completely and utterly pointless" in literally any context.

Worrying about criminals jamming wifi is the distraction, because criminals definitely carry around microwaves and portable kilowatt power sources, or implement novel DoS attacks, all just to temporarily disconnect cameras that if it's competent, cached all the video locally anyway.

Why not worry about criminals cutting mains power? That'd kill most wired cameras even harder than battery-powered wireless ones.
I struggle to think that data from a dating app represents the majority of women accurately.

Most women don't use dating apps to find long term partners, at least among my peers and online circles. The common use case is casual hookups, which would certainly place a higher emphasis on physical attributes.

Conversely, I have met/seen many men looking for long term partners on those same sites, which should place a higher emphasis on compatibility.
The problem is that it's not as simple as he seemed to think. His statements about transparency were naive - he is apparently unaware of the reasons for which moderation teams don't explicitly state all of their bases for action.
