There's doing the work, and then it's a new build to test and twitter has multiple targets (app and website), there'll be at least one round of testing involved, which isn't quick, and if a defect is found it'll very quickly blow out in time.
They need to charge the subscribers too.
The article never even says what the "alt-right conspiracy theory" is. Just that it the source is disreputable.
I think this is smart. The blue checkmark is in practice just a symbol of vanity. That you're a genuine somebody, worthy of extra verification. There are so many self-important people in life and on social media that think they are in a class above everybody else, I bet a large percentage of these not noteworthy but need to be verified people will happily pay for it.
> Just have a look at paintings of some of the well-known artists, example Picasso, and you will know what I mean.

Picasso was a very good artist, look at some of his “better“ works where he was just doing a portrait or something and he’s up there with any other artist known to history.

You kind of have to be a really good technical artist to be a really good “bad” artist.
I'm teaching myself that one too. Will replace with luxury vinyl. I just pulled up the oak floor in the bedroom. It had asphalt paper under it. Sigh. Date on the wood was 2001, so not terribly old, but definitely could use an update.

Since the house is old, it is plywood floors and they aren't even enough for vinyl. Going to have to learn how to fix that too. From what I can tell, it is basically just mud like on the walls... but portland cement on the floor.

Back in the day, the work you might dream of computing might be as simple as a matrix multiplication, which while difficult to implement, is certainly not impossible for a beginner; we did exactly that for our first machine language MP in Computer Engineering 190 my freshman year of college. The use cases were just far simpler back then for computers!
> Considering it can cost thousand of dollars or time, such as sending documents, to verify accounts, this is a good deal

This almost certainly involves a massive streamlining (and reduction in rigor) of verification. Most identification verification processes online don’t take thousands of dollars of time, and the whole point is to take “verification” from a thing for a very narrow elite to a thing for a (Musk hopes) very wide paying audience. Musk has been clear since very early that he wants to convert Twitter to a mostly-paid social network by merging Blue and verification, making the former more attractive to support a higher price and the latter far more widespread.
No, the open source software Mastodon does not have any ad mechanism, but obviously you could change that.
If thousands quit working at Twitter cause of tight deadlines like this there's thousands to more of developers who are excited to work for Musk and for Musk's Twitter.

If he's going for creating the Internet's kitchen sink app.. that sounds exciting!

- Let me use Twitter to pay for parking in every city (right now I have to download tons of apps)

- Let me use it pay for other similar business transactions where there are of tons of apps you have to download to do X (paying for medical bills ...ugh so many portals)

- We need an Internet / public verification reputation system (not sure about paying $20 a month) as deepfakes are only going to get easier to use and more pervasive.
Can we stop equating populism with fascism? Populism can be good, actually. Lula is arguably a populist.

Back then there were several ways to do this sort of thing.

Rub-off dry transfer lettering like those from Letraset or mechanical pantographs like the Leroy were commonly used for technical lettering.

But it was probably hand drawn -- "draftsman" and graphic artists were found in all sorts of office settings that you don't see today.
>Do we know for sure they still have to prove they are who they claim?

Do they not already?
Good advice. I’ve had the same policy with regard to SMF vs MMF for quite a while now, when I saw each new speed dropping in distance with multimode. You just know SMF will do what you need.

We’ve been using the FS modules too for years, they are very reliable. It does totally make a mockery of the vendors who claim they need to lock out other brand’s modules (from their 100% standardised port) for reliability etc.!
Even then it can be relatively easily correlated if you are a high enough value target.
Yes, I probably should have said it was on the agenda.

I am surprised at how deep the Deck's controller customization goes. It goes deep enough I really need to go seek out a tutorial, I've blundered my way through some advanced config but with a lot of clicking around. (Though isn't that ultimately how most of us learn everything anyhow?) It has some amazingly deep options.
I think you're right but for the wrong reason. Social media is insanely profitable, and when you anonymize that people wouldn't be as invested, so they want people in it personally and often.

I don't think it has to do with them compiling your information because it'd be easy for us to be outwardly anonymous on the web so no one you're interacting with has any idea who you are while still allowing those companies to track you in depth since they're behind the scenes. It's not like they need to know your real name to give you targeted ads.
University taught me the same, especially in CS. Use professor's style, clear and readable code, don't be clever, turn in work early, etc.

Professional life is similar: be autonomous as much as practical, fill in when managers are gone, over communicate just a bit, complement their weaknesses, be humble.
Bulshit. Deforestation was at record levels during Lula’s first terms.

That was exactly his point. I listened earlier today. (It being his point doesn’t mean he is necessarily right.)
>The blue checkmark is in practice just a symbol of vanity. That you're a genuine somebody, worthy of extra verification.

Absolutely. But if anyone who pays $20/month can get a blue checkmark, it is no longer the status symbol you describe and its appeal totally disappears.
Social media has destroyed people’s ability (at least in western world) to have IRL interpersonal communications.

I find not only myself but many of my peers struggle with this. Online is easy to be in an echo chamber where nothing actually gets done. You find acceptance but it is meaningless once you shut off your phone. You find community but it’s brittle and again you shut off your phone and you’re alone.

What we need is a return real life in person social life. Being stuck in online/VR all day is basically a precursor to the matrix.
Hiring new engineers while the CEO is busy boiling some of its engineers alive is notoriously difficult.

Plus, interviewing takes engineering time, since you need existing engineers to conduct those interviews. Engineers who are being asked to "show their work" won't want to take time away to interview their replacements.
To me, this looks like the Brush Script font [1]. Probably Letraset [2] or a similar system. (Display lettering was the actual purpose of Letraset.)

It wasn’t, but it is now.

You can pick what information you want to collect as an Apple Pay web merchant:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/apple_pay_on_the_w...

Customers can ultimately set whatever they want as an email address there, and it's not verified in any way by Apple before completing the payment, but defaults matter: The default on my phone was my real email address from my contact card, and I did not even notice that it was preselected in the payment sheet until I got a confirmation email by the checkout system.

In an online payment context, this makes total sense to me: The merchant needs some way to identify the buyer even just for digital goods, after all. But it came very unexpected for me in a restaurant context, where I know that Apple Pay (via tap and pay) normally does not even reveal my name.

I really hope that Apple realizes the pretty big privacy gap here and starts integrating their email relay service into Apple Pay sooner rather than later, as well as making it possible to override required fields in some way.
I don't think I ever saw one of these, but was a fan of amber monochrome. It was great for night-time work thirty years before redshift, et al.

Not even that. They already have Twitter Blue, a premium service that's 3 bucks a month. So they already have payments, they already have subscriptions and membership periods. They literally just need another plan tier added.
Lula is a populist and a fascist. His campaign ran on a platform of “regulating the media” and has succeeded in censoring a major news channel and the release of a documentary film about the attempt to murder the president in the previous election.
I think it’s depressing that droves of people are leaving Twitter because they believe that they might tone down all the censorship.

Oh I'm not dismissing flashcards as not a worthwhile endeavor, quite the opposite. Check out the other comment I made in this thread (or through my profile) on different modes of engagement. If anything, I believe we DON'T do enough of this lower level practice in western education anymore because its not promote critical thinking (as much as other methods). My argument is that if you are struggling in those other methods, you should absolute do these types of lower-level practices.

Who exactly cares about C++20? Most (mis)features of the “standard” won’t be used for years anyway, until the codegen stabilizes and performance impact will be known. Most of people in these communities never got a dollar for a line of C++, and people who did rarely express their opinion (but you can still find it online if you try)
It seems to me you're drawing conclusions from sparse evidence. You are of course welcome to your guess, just not to say it's just plain so.
So, it the price of the coin is going down 60%, I'm not only lose the 60% but also a additional 20%! And if the buyer resells the coin, s/he will get a 50% penalty unless the price increased enough. When this coin crashes, it will crash extra super fast and set a new record.

Put on a hot heater when taking a shower.

In theory you'll turn the water heat down which stops a lot of loss, 1 kg air is ~1000 liters, 1 kg water is 1 liter. It'll also flow back into the house.

Nonsense. An anonymous accusation is all but meaningless, and is in no way similar to a conviction. This is some truly garbage journalism.
May be true elsewhere but not in New York. I can play off the uninitiated immigrant card. The system is bad but that doesn't mean I comply with it. I know one of the consequences of my action is a poorly paid wait staff. But it is the right game theoretic move at scale. If everyone did it, we could shame restaurants into charging higher food prices and paying their staff more money in a fixed amount.

All this is beside the point that I don't eat outside in general. I prefer take out so I tip only rarely.
Not sure where you grew up, but most of the population gets tap water from the CAP, which means the water ran for hundreds of miles in canals across the desert before going into a water treatment plant. It’s 90F+ easily in the summer in any modern builds in Tuscon/Phoenix.

It's like the joke about the mathematician in the hot air balloon ... His answer is correct but it's not useful. It is correct there is some optimal solution short of an infinite number of sensors/technologies and larger than no sensors. The argument that Tesla is converging on the optimal solution vs. the more or less known reality that they couldn't get the components they needed to build enough cars is weaselly. But hey, necessity is the mother of invention. Also he can't actually share anything from his work in Tesla because presumably he's under NDA but he's gotta say something.

Not even that, the article says that the plan is to just repurpose Twitter Blue, not add another tier.

And this is why stock market will keep going up- every two weeks millions of people- and their proxies, via index funds and pension plans- go out and say "welp let's buy some more stocks so we can retire".
I’m not really read up on it, but I think Bluesky and Twitter are not really operating in the same space, and certainly not in the same way. Bluesky is building a protocol and selling a hosting platform. I started thinking about that model years ago, making a social protocol makes sense and it’s time for a Mastodon for the masses.

Twitter has built an incredibly resilient and scalable real-time message delivery over all IPN, email, and cell endpoints the world has to offer, and world class search, data, and ad stack. It used to make news when Twitter when down. It still does, and it set a record in July of being down for 45 mins. It doesn’t break at 1 billion messages/day. I forgot what the fail whale looks like.

If Bluesky the protocol rocks but the open source hosting sucks, Bluesky the business will do great. I’m sure their team can build a magnificent stack. I worry the business will be greedy, but the protocol will be widely adopted and centrally governed.

From their site https://atproto.com/:

Federated social

Connect with anyone on any service that's using the AT Protocol.

Algorithmic choice

Control how you see the world through an open market of algorithms.

Portable accounts

Change hosts without losing your content, your follows, or your identity

Twitter is crippled with debt and bursting with defectors. Bluesky or anyone else who wants to win the future needs to handle mass migration, user engagement, scaling issues, support, and needs to be able to do so quickly.

I love the idea of a marketplace for algorithms, and I think there will be a new class of moderation filters as a service. Perhaps there is a community baseline, and tools to make your own, but mostly people will pay to eliminate noise and curate their experience.
And maintenance etc. But if you don't gain significant benefit, it's reasonable not to take on the risks of managing changes to a product you can do without because it doesn't, itself, significantly reduce risk.
> Reddit is actually the best positioned Twitter alternative

If they do, Elon can buy Reddit for about $44.00.
The use of this test, which requires exactly the same forensic evidence as a decisive one says a lot about the prosecution. The only reason to use this is if you think a more accurate (and cheaper) test would prove the suspect's innocence.

That sounds like a crazy conspiracy, but, from the headline 90% of the time, the test is misadministered. That suggests that, indeed, all DA's that use this tactic are "corrupt to the point of no longer caring about justice and truth".

Do you have an alternate explanation for a 90% error rate?
Without some way to capture value it would also be one of the biggest acts of capital destruction in recent tech history.

Yes, I would consider it part of the rehabilitation process.

This is fair. I was trying to draw the point that it's about people outside the prison (which the convict who may later re-offend would be when they're facing the choice to re-offend). I think I phrased this poorly/wrongly. Thanks for pointing it out.

Is it possible for a Asia developer find a remote job in Europe
I'm a Java developer who lived in Asia more specifically in China, I have some remote experience with a US company, and recently I'm planning to find a remote job in Europe or Australia， I wonder if they like a developer who comes from China? What do they think about Chinese developers? And I prefer a small company instead of a big one. And do you have any advice for finding a remote job in these places?
There's ways around medical inadmissibility, you can absolutely get around the cost threshold by proving your ability to cover the cost- so long as it isn't a personal guarantee. It's sort of a nightmare, you have to apply for PR, be denied, and then there's a one time appeal process. Talk to a lawyer about it if this is your actual plan, because they know more than I ever will.
If one wants to speculate, timing wise, this correlates with the recent release of iOS 16 (September 2022) and macOS 13 (October 2022), which have added AVIF support to Safari. That event in turn means that now most browsers support AVIF.
I always thought about this sort of space. If you get a letter of offer from a big tech co, why isn’t there a way to signal that you’re “at least Google good” without working for them.
I don't have it either, but I have heard of it. It's something to do with the kernel not being set to allow the s2idle power level. I don't know what triggers it, but setting some kernel flag forces it to show that sleep level which will then be used for sleeping.

Because the only half-solutions we got for mitigating climate change were drafted by people who are largely free market types, and they can only envision free market solutions - which require end users figuring out how they are going to deal with more expensive energy on their own.

That does, of course, result in quite a bit of pain along the way.
