I'm talking about politicians accepting donation money. Not the lobbyist themselves. If politicians didn't accept "donations" they wouldn't have a role.

Politicians receive a salary, that should be enough, if the salary for a congress person isn't high enough, then we can talk about that at the next election, they also might be better at managing the economy and dealing with things like inflation because it would be a harsh reality for them, like it is for everyone else.

The full advisory is linked at https://github.com/XKCP/XKCP/security/advisories/GHSA-6w4m-2.... In order for an application to be vulnerable, it must:

1. Break the file into multiple chunks and pass them to SHA-3 individually.

2. Make one of those chunks larger than 4 GB in size. (This requires using 4 GB of memory.)

This is kind of an unlikely thing for an application to do. If you're breaking the file into chunks, usually you'd use smaller chunks. (And if your server is limited to less than 4 GB of RAM, you might not be able to allocate enough memory to trigger the vulnerability in any case.) But it could be exploitable in some really weird or poorly written application somewhere.
Wages need to double, just like everything else has. A new house costs a million, yet some people are forced to strike to get a $3 wage increase.
> It's important to know whether or not the authors picked BsaI & BmBI blind, before looking at the genome.

You could never convince me that these restriction enzymes were picked blindly, no bioinformatician I have ever met does science this way. There is a preliminary period of exploratory data analysis which is done before any hypothesis is put forward, and data dredging and leakage are rampant in the literature.

That's not to say that the spacing of BsaI/BsmBI restriction sites isn't noteworthy, just something to keep in mind.

To your point however, could someone comment on the suitability of BsaI/BsmBI for the in vitro assembly of synthetic coronaviruses? Is it all just about finding sites in the genome at the right locations which can be turned into restriction sites without disrupting any existing functional genetic elements? or is there more to it than that. If a research team were to come along and decide they wanted to engineer their own coronavirus, how likely would it be that they would choose these restriction enzymes?
I think you mean pic-a-nic baskets.
That's the premium you would have to pay for a comparable place, but a comparable place is actually not that comparable. Urban lifestyle is fundamentally different from suburban lifestyle, focusing more on doing things outside your home. A better comparison would be based on what urban people in your social class are paying for housing.

Much in the same way, it's not reasonable to compare suburban and rural costs of living by assuming similar homes. For example, beachfront properties tend to be quite expensive in the suburbia, and private lakes even more so.
They clearly were emphasizing how expensive things are; they didn’t make a value judgement as to why. “Minor” conveyed that the work to be done is small.

This is a shit take, there’s no evidence for this person being out of touch with respect to anything
What’s misleading about asking people if they’ve had something stolen from them and then printing the results?

It’s a bizzare criticism given that the usual approach to determining how much crime has happened is to ask the police department.
Taiwan, the World-Class Puzzle
I thought it was common sense to not believe in a thing if there is no evidence of a thing. The only way I am going to believe it was a lab leak is if credible evidence shows up. Until then it is an unknown.
> I don't understand why they're sitting on their hands. What Microsoft did in the 90s was pale by comparison

Can you provide a link to these statements? How old are they?

FWIW I don't live in SF but I've had a couple of car break-ins and I don't even remember if I reported them; it was a formality for insurance purposes if so and I never expected nor saw evidence of any police follow up. Are there cities where that's different?
> Want to save lives? High speed motorcycling should simply be illegal.

I have often thought that if it didn't already exist, motorcycling would not be allowed.

Bureaucrat:"I'm having a hard time allowing cars with a low safety rating and you want WHAT?!?"

However, I am also not sure humanity should live their lives purely on a "save lives" basis. Scuba diving, sky diving, rock climbing, skiing, surfing, scootering, bicycles would ALL come under attack.

Life involves risk. However, I am always open to debate on how society should manage this risk.

The real issue is that Indian tech companies want to be able to bundle their crap with Android phones and still take advantage of the Google phone/Android brand.

They're welcome to sell forks and bundle all the alternative software they want with whatever store they want, they just can't call it an Android phone or call themselves an Android manufacturer.

What Google requires of OEMs has been known for a long time and isn't a secret. And as I already pointed out, companies like Huawei and others successfully sell Android forks with alternative stores and apps.

I sense this is another one of those “Slowly, then suddenly” kinds of things. My grocery bills have slowly crept up, but remain manageable.

That being said, I have noticed a few shocking things this last month. The contract on my electricity service is due to renew and the rate has increased by 30%. My insurance premium has gone up by 45%, and I haven’t gotten into any accents or made any claims - I’m told this isn’t unique to me and the industry is seeing 30-50% increases as common this year.

Truth be told, I think things are continuing to build up and we haven’t had a Lehman Brothers moment yet.
They have turnover and must keep a healthy pool of candidates ready to go, open positions or not.

This is especially true if the interviewing process is long.
Mine mnemonic is use e.g. when you could say “for eg-zample” and use i.e. when you could say “that is” — ie to is. Admittedly, the second half isn’t as good as the first. : )
I'd say both. It's a combination of misguided politicians and voters, and also police departments and the intelligence community that want to normalize a certain degree of surveillance

You misunderstood. I wasn't saying that in theory the couldn't. Of course they could just like you say.

I was saying that you said

If a company cannot interview you without sharing "company secrets", they don't know how to interview

And I simply meant that I don't think that this company wouldn't have been able to do it without. They simply chose not to do it without. And if they so choose it seems reasonable to want to protect those secrets.
Apple removes passwords – Is it more secure?
Source: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/authenticationservices/public-private_key_authentication

I guess this eliminates a few options for bad actors:
- brute force
- phishing (users don't even know their public-private keys)
- can't use application oauth identity to intercept because user creds are probably validated in apples servers

Still has some vulnerabilities though:
- hack into iCloud keychain - it's been done before
- malicious third party app that can retrieve public-private key pairs from device storage
Social media is not the real world though, it's heavily curated (which by itself is a problem) and then algorithmically designed to induce strong feelings like hate, fear, resentment etc. because that is what increases engagement.

That's not healthy, and it's a huge reason so many young people are so miserable all the time. They have no other frame of reference in the actual real world.
I don’t think that is how the permissions work and to as the app review people to validate every other promise seems absurd.

You're absolutely correct. In my case, I was forced against my will to attend a March for Life event in Washington, DC 12 years ago. I refused to hold any signs or chant anything, but I got intimate experience with the rhetoric used in these protests.

I also have had an abortion so I have seen the protests from the other side as well. Almost got in a fist fight with a grown man who spit on my girlfriend, but opted to get a security guard to call the police instead.

My experience led to me oversimplifying the argument to make a point, but it's definitely more nuanced.
The amount of time it took you to type this response is longer than it takes to enable third party sources in settings. Most people do it at some point anyway, such as when downloading an app they want from it's website. There's no mangle about it, it literally pops up with "allow this app to install applications?" and takes you there directly.

If someone wants f-droid they'll do it. The problem is most people don't know what f-droid is. It has nothing to do with UX friction of installing it, there is virtually none.
> Remember: the goal of political speech isn't to convince reasonable people of anything; reasonable people don't need convincing, they just need facts. The goal of political speech is to (somehow) convince unreasonable people of things. Which requires, for a start, showing deference to what they already believe.

I think this says less about political speech and more about the time we're living in

I'm an amateur, using Resolve for holiday/family clips. It took one or two YouTube tutorials for me to get it, but I've got a smooth workflow now.

* Create project *and set the frame rate before importing video clips, because you can't change it once you've got clips*.
* Choose "DaVinci YRGB Color Managed" under project settings, Color Managment - this is more flexible for coloring later on.
* Add your media, then choose any clip(s), right-click and and create timeline from it.
* Use NLE functions to make the edit.
* Color grade (and stabilise clips).
- Turn on Scopes -> Waveform (UI bottom right) and set the white balance by dragging the 'dot' in the middle of the Offset wheel.
You want the red/green/blue waves to overlap where there's a region of grey/white in your video frame.
This can be tough if you have no grey/white, but you can copy color settings from other clips.
- Adjust other settings as necessary.
* Deliver/export.

Non-big city Wisconsin - I know people who never lock their doors.
I had a car broken into this last weekend. They broke into every rental car in the lot (by the ferry building).

A police officer was rolling through, telling people not to leave anything visible in their cars (nothing was visible in mine). I asked him if I could file a report, and he told me I would have to go to the station. He told me he wasn't sticking around and refused to take a report.

I had a similar experience last year with an officer who tried to talk us out of filing a report for a man with a hatchet who had shattered car windows with it, and I had a dispatcher refuse to send an officer for a theft crew that I'd stopped in the middle of breaking into a car before they waved a gun at me and drove at me and my son over the sidewalk.

I've also had them refuse to take reports at our neighborhood station, forcing me to go to the Mission station to file a report.

The police in San Francisco are less than useless. We should fire the whole set and start over.

> I'm not sure as many liberals would leave as threaten to, because where would they go - Mastodon? Discord? People use twitter because it's a large flat platform rather than one with a lot of silos.

The natural alternative is actually disengagement from social media. Twitter and Facebook are only about 15 years old, which is a tiny blip in history. People managed just fine without them. Social media is one way to spend time, but there are plenty of other ways to spend time.
I believe in recent OS versions, whenever an app requests full library access, the OS asks you if you want to grant it, deny it, or grant a subset of photos which it fakes as the "full library" to the app.

> In my searching for a place, you're looking at a 1.5-2k premium for a comparable place _in_ the city vs 20-30 minutes out of it.

This is like looking at potential living costs in Tokyo by calculating how much it would cost for 2+ cars and a big single family home with two large yards while eating peanut butter and drinking root beer every day.

This is a common fallacy that people engage in when comparing urban vs suburban areas. The suburban advantages can be had in urban areas for a large price (e.g. big house, multiple cars to the extent that this is an advantage), whereas urban advantages are more often things that you can't buy in the suburbs for any price, like walkability or decent transit or cooler local events/stores/restaurants. Thus, you end up comparing an urban area with suburban advantages versus a suburban area without urban advantages. That's obviously not fair, so the logical thing to do is to look at how people actually behave, how they actually spend.
I guess the shocking part is that you have all of this theft and crime and grit, all happening around people making hundreds of thousands a year living in multi million dollar houses. Go look at the tax revenue of San Francisco vs Albuquerque. It's unacceptable for a city so rich to have such a dismal quality of life.

I agree with you. Boston has an old reputation for sketchy areas. It surely was justified at one point, too (as well as outlying areas; Somerville was a bit eyebrow-raising when I was young, I remember that). But for most of the city, especially the places folks on HN are likely to ever be, it's quite safe. My parents sent me breathless statistics about Dorchester being a hive of scum and villainy and for being among "the least safe" areas of Boston, I never even saw a broken window, let alone heard gunshots or read reports of violence.
Does being screamed at by a homeless person that they're going to murder you count as being threatened? Actual question... I didn't really think they were seriously going to try to murder me (particularly since these were usually either when I was walking my large dog or in the very crowded FiDi).

I live in San Diego now.
China’s Military Is Catching Up to the U.S.
Where Microsoft had marketing and familiarity, Apple has/had a better touch (UX as it's often called).

Unfortunately for people who entered their ecosystem, there is a heavy influence to keep them there (more than a walled garden, an active insulation and inculcation - its hard to take your life elsewhere if you bought into the Apple ecosystem).

That's disappeared a bit with the cloud, but native apps still perform better, and a side effect of their walled garden is the apps that do survive tend to lack a lot of the junk and spyware that android users must dodge...

I think its a strong word to say "choose" - rather they are compelled.

Ofc some choose, but thousands of dollars in, its hard for the average to justify sinking that capital. Android phones don't sync with iCloud, don't connect to Apple TV, don't have iMessage or Facetime (at least I think not), don't sync their music libraries and don't do whatever it is Apple is selling gadget for these days.

I think if users were just choosing, it would be as easy to switch as it is to put on a different shirt. I can buy a shirt, I can't choose a phone.

I say this as someone unwilling to invest in phones or supporting gadgets, and also not entirely happy with Android either.
> Seriously, isn't this true everywhere? I've jad things stolen in small towns and in big cities

This is baffling to me. I'm currently in a medium sized city. When someone in my social circle has something stolen, it's a big deal. The last time it happened was several years back, and it upset the person enough that they moved to a new neighborhood as soon as possible.

It's so weird to read these accounts from people who think constant theft and crime are just normal.

The greatest risk to US national security would be to escalate the Russia-Ukraine conflict into a wider war with real risks of multiple nuclear exchanges (in which the US mainland would be a target). Avoiding this requires that diplomatic negotiations aimed at ending the conflict take place. Musk seems to be far more rational on this point than the advocates of continued escalation within the Biden Administration.

The outcome of such negotiations would most likely involve the Russian-speaking regions of eastern Ukraine leaving Kyiv's control, with a new (ideally demilitarized) border between Ukraine and Russia. That's a better outcome than global nuclear war.

Note also, Russia's economic relationship with Europe is basically over, so it's hardly a 'win for Putin', if that's the argument against this rational approach.
> the abysmal dating prospects

It really is bad, right, and not my imagination? I feel like I’ve wasted a decade of my life here on an endless string of bad first dates with no mutual attraction.

It wasn’t like that in other places I’ve lived. I mentioned this to a family member recently, and they said it’s harder because I’m getting older. That’s probably true, but I swear it’s rough in this city.

It’s a bit like buying a house here: you spend a huge amount of time, effort, and money, and end up with less than you’d get back home.

Hope NYC worked out better for you.
Being a parent in America is awesome. Being a parent is awesome. Kids are awesome. I have 3 and would love to have 3 more. I can't afford them. They complicate my life. I watch a lot more cartoons these days than I would on my own. But I love them.

I say these things in case others are fearing the impact of kids on their lives. The love kids have to give is something special.
For those not familiar with QuickAssist, it is a cryptography and compression accelerator connected through PCIe, which is available in some models of Intel server CPUs or server chipsets and in a few models of Intel server Ethernet NICs.

Moreover, the laptop variants of Alder Lake (H-series, P-series and U-series) are said in the Intel Ark web site to include a subset of QuickAssist, but I have not been able to find any public Intel document explaining which functions are supported by laptop Alder Lake CPUs or any report of someone testing these functions on laptop Alder Lake CPUs.
To be clear, people have discovered galaxies earlier, but didn’t understand their true nature. Hence, the discussed galaxy was first known as “Andromeda Nebula”.
Honestly, all SF has to do is stop obstructing projects that are a mere 20% subsidized units. It's become common political practice to pretend that a parking lot housing zero people is preferable to a lot housing a bunch of people, of which up to 20% are impoverished and formerly unsheltered vulnerable community members. Couple it with a fantasy that 100% subsidized is within reach in all cases and you have a recipe for a parking lot staying that way forever and the unsheltered staying that way too.

Getting people in housing is often the first step to being able to help them with everything else making their lives difficult. It's remarkably hard to deliver psychiatric care to people who cannot be reliably contacted.
Seconded. I am also a fan of Linux Mint for very similar reasons. Ended up recently switching from Mint to Pop, though because I like modern Gnome more than Cinnamon (sue me).

Mint was pretty much rock solid on my Dell XPS. It just worked. Pop has been a bit more exciting, but still a great distro!
