Treating this press release like a story problem in 5th grade math, there's something off:

> Last year approximately 1,600 catalytic converters were reportedly stolen in California each month, and California accounts for 37% of all catalytic converter theft claims nationwide.

> The black-market price for catalytic converters can be above $1,000 each, depending on the type of vehicle and what state it is from.

> Defendants ... operated DG Auto... DG Auto sold the precious metal powders it processed from California and elsewhere to a metal refinery for over $545 million.

How did they make $545M in a racket whose upper limit on annual profit is a tenth of that? Perhaps that figure represents DG Auto's gross revenue, only a portion of which comes from recycling converters?

Maybe the number of advertisers is going down, but their ad business is still doing well[1].

If someday their only two advertisers were ExxonMobil and the NRA, but they bought a combined total of $4B in ads, then Fox News would be doing incredibly well.

The same could be true for Twitter. The advertisers who don't care about the site's stigma may end up just snapping up more inventory, as Fox advertisers seem to have done.

No. No. No. No.

Solve local development first and then maybe cloud dev. Reasons, just off the top of my head:

- always-on internet connection is not always viable

- intermittent and bad connections are a thing

- which local environment do you support for accessing your cloud? An ever changing combination of "latest only" browsers, apps, and select IDE integrations?

- how stable is your cloud environment? which features and versions of which tools will get deprecated tomorrow?
Sure. There is indeed quite a bit of flexibility in adjusting the leverage of a business, assuming that it is still a going concern.

So was your comment about "high equity" just about leverage? Like, everyone worries about high leverage but no one seems to care about low leverage (which could be an inefficient capital allocation)? It's just an unorthodox way to put it, that phrase

I find the premise of this article pretty humorous. It’s always a neat little magic trick to tell people that two bad things can’t exist at the same time.

“The solution to classism is to ignore racism! No don’t ask why I feel that way or how I got to that conclusion!”
I'd prefer it be government infrastructure myself. Insert UN-as-world-government conspiracy theories here if you want, but probably even nation-state is enough for that crowd.

If nothing else, a government-backed plan will have armies of stakeholders coming out of the woodwork with a lot of very relevant "...and how does this work after a hurricane causes a week-long power outage and there's nothing resembling a cell tower standing in 100km?" questions.

For something like identity, you want a maximally-passive device, probably close to today's current smart and contactless cards, that relies on external readers for any sort of display and interactively. The goal needs to be physical durability-- you don't want someone wading through flood waters, only to find out their iDentity device shorted out in their pocket, or replacing devices that get bent if someone does bends over with it in their pocket, or develop Spicy Pillow Syndrome after 3 years.

Does Apple even know how to handle this sort of really minimal design? Didn't their credit card actually physically break down if you put it in a jeans pocket?

TBH, that's the sort of thing government is INTENDED for: it's not supposed to be sexy and innovative (and inevitably doomed to sharding into squabbling competitive fiefdoms), it's supposed to be a boring, universally available background service that lets people do other, more interesting things on top of it.

Ask HN: Who is your prediction for new Twitter CEO? My guess is Jason Calacanis
Absolutely not.
Modern and modernism is clearly defined and nothing to do with recent or latest fad. It rather means nowadays old-fashioned and reduced.

* Form follows function.

* Minimalism principle, there's only one best way. (vs postmodern, there are many)

* Stanford, not New Jersey.

C++ is clearly a postmodern language, because instead of reducing competing features, it rather adds more and more variants of almost the same thing. Modernism means to reduce this syntax and library bloat.

Millions of dollars is worth sacrificing the job satisfaction of tens of thousands of engineers? Just because you can't measure job satisfaction and report on the value that it provides to your company doesn't mean that it doesn't exist, or isn't doing that. If you divide the two rough numbers that you provided, you get hundreds of dollars per engineer. This is not very much money.

It sounds like you think that because you can't measure it, you are legally obligated to assert that it is zero.

You are bad at your job.

The existing settlements generally prove there's not much appetite for the substantial growth of random rural communities. There's a reason that Phoenix (and Tucson) exploded to become #5 in the nation, while hundreds/thousands of small communities remain pretty much as they were <back when>. The reason Patagonia isn't exploding is not nearby federal land ownership.
But surely the embroidering of a company logo on it vastly reduces the value of the item, and this must be accounted for. If I have a new Cotopaxi or Arc'teryx item I can sell it on Facebook Marketplace for 90% of its MSRP. But if it has a fucking TurboTax Information Security Team logo on it I doubt I could get 25%. So I hope this is accounted for in the taxation.

For some of us (me included) living in a racist society is like a fish swiming who does not notice water. I only noticed when I became intimate with a person from a minority race and saw how they were treated. That is when I noticed I live in a racist society.

I love the economist. Their writing is so good, they are biased but know it, and acknowledge it. Biased, but not bigoted. nYet this article misses the point, IMO, or racial quotas in professional schools. They have the liberal individualistic bias, and have not noticed that one. It is their water (I am a liberal myself, but I have had that particular bias removed by my experiences.)

Here (Aotearoa) the point of quotas is not to allow some groups the same access to the privilege of the profession, but it is to help the consumers of professional services get what they need.

For doctors, lawyers, architects, accountants (yes) etcetera being from a similar community as your clients is very helpful for your clients. This is not a benefit to the individual professional, it is a benefit to the community.

There is a secondary benefit to the professions themselves. A cultural milieu helps bring new ideas forward.

Whether or not the system in the USA is fit for purpose or not, I do not know. But when deciding I hope the American judges think not, only, of benefit to the individuals but the wider effects on our communities.

You can fake to be a morning person by setting your alarm early and go to bed 8 hours before that; maybe you are doing a good enough job and have a productive life. However, maybe you would’ve been far more productive if you would’ve just slept when tired and worked when you naturally wake up. In my experience, that works a lot better than wringing yourself in some kind of schedule.

I don’t know very many (any, come to think of it) people who would naturally choose 9-5 and indeed, less and less do adhere to them. I prefer 5 am to 11 am for office hours and others prefer 11 am to 3 pm and then 5 pm to 9 pm etc.

People who prefer actual office hours I don’t know personally, but I guess they exist.

Because the converters themselves are only worth $1k each on the black market, but apparently quite a bit more if stripped and processed further, to bare precious metal powders, which are much easier to work with.
Great tool. Just one thing: please make an option to distinguish blips by something else than color. Like many people, I can not see the difference between red and black/grey/whatever especially for very thin, small elements on screen. Thanks!
> I am requesting that you apply the plain text of your app store policies to TikTok and remove it from your app stores for failure to abide by those terms.

I hadn't thought of this point before. Apple and Google both reject apps from small-time American developers all the time for minor technicalities related to their data privacy rules. Why does ByteDance get to run roughshod over all of the same rules?
I do think it's unsolvable, since it's not a technical problem, but a societal one: Debian packages already list patched CVEs in their changelogs in a standardized format.

Introducing a new tool will only add another on top of the existing tools, when nothing tells us that people will use it! (plug the xkcd on n standards -> fix with a better standard -> n +1 standards)

Basically, you want to make everyone use a single tool when humans always strive to build something better or just different :)

The best we could hope to achieve is to have the CVE MITRE database start accepting "patched in" strings from all the distributors (so as Ubuntu pushes a signed and patched package to the archive, it pings the CVE db with a new version string for eg. Ubuntu-22.04 namespace).

Even that gets tricky with dependencies and issues covering multiple packages ("this is only patched if you've updated both of these"), though that's a technically solvable problem.
Yeah: No one thinks it's mechanically difficult to remove identifiers. The point is to make such altered parts illegal to buy. Similar to VIN restrictions or handgun signifiers in many states.
What's the problem with criticizing him? We don't have to achieve anything to do that. We can see what he does wrong and object to that regardless of our status or achievements. This is a poor argument from you.
A lot of these tools actually make your life easier and faster in the long run.

ControlTower for example. Takes about 30 mins to setup on normal AWS (on GovCloud it was much more complicated, took me half a day). But then setting up new accounts is one click and it’s preconfigured with correct restrictions and security measures, which individually would take several hours per account to do without controltower. So it’s an easy savings from the beginning. The only real cost is the cost of AWS config. So if you’re using that already (for SecurityHub for example) then it’s nothing additional.

IAM Identity Center makes user management not only more secure but faster and easier. It will take half a day to maybe a full day to setup the first time. But now every new user will be a few clicks with access across multiple AWS accounts. You can remove them in one click across all accounts. So these are just really simple additions to your workflow that save you time and improve security.

SSM is another example. It’s adding a policy to your instance role and checking a box (or adding a flag in Terraform or CLI) and it’s enabled. It’s no additional cost. It saves you time because you don’t need to manage user accounts on the server anymore (they are managed broadly through IAM or PermissionSets). No more copying around SSH keys or rotating them when people leave. It improves security and saves you time.

There’s little (if any at all) downside to any of these things. It’s all upside. For the most part, these don’t even have any significant costs associated with them. They are generally provided for free where you’re only cost is the underlying resources that you’re managing, which of course your paying for regardless.
Just one anecdote but, FWIW, I found that my peers at UBC were significantly smarter and harder-working than my peers at MIT.

Many schools have honours programs or especially challenging degree programs, which will be filled with excellent and ambitious students, even if that school is not an ivy league.

Thank you.
1) maybe they ran the ring for more than a decade?

2) 1600 is just the number reported. I’d imagine not many people report the thefts, especially if your car insurance premiums will rise (insurance companies raise premiums even if you don’t make a claim if they have information that suggests your neighborhood or places you frequent are at increased risk of theft)

3) possibly the rate of catalytic converter thefts has risen dramatically in 2022 compared to 2021
How is that working out?
> Every yard told me that they aren't allowed to deal in used exhaust systems.

This is uniquely a CA issue, some after-market vendors wont even sip to CA/NY; however, most states will allow you to retrieve them from junked cars and will personally do that for you if you are willing to pay for their time--most have pick a part solutions as it's cheaper on labour to do it that way since dismantling/sorting/testing is very labour/time intensive.

I bought a few ex manifolds and cats for several cars from other states and shipped into CA when I worked in the auto industry, it just wasn't cheap.

Because good luck getting a decent ex manifold for a 1968 BMW 2002 or 1991 850i from Bavaria and you will soon be so sticker shocked you will pay whatever it takes to get it state-side, especially since one of those cars is smog-exempt and the dealer is charging you every hour your car is taking up a rack waiting for the RO to be completed.
My district in Oregon does the same thing. Free lunch is offered to everyone with no means testing. The more well off kids still choose to bring their own lunches most days. Other days lunchroom trades are carried out between the school offerings and food from home but no child goes hungry and the program costs the same as when they had to pay people to deal with paperwork and bookkeeping.
People like ridicule blame execs and managers for not trusting their remote employees and want a return to office.

Do you mind if I ask — how long ago was this?

I've flirted with a couple of similar experiences and come away with a very similar feeling — "something really deep inside of me was fixed" — but I find a lot of it fades away after a while. Not all of it, but it definitely feels like 2 steps forward and 1 step back (or, more accurately, like 100 steps forward and 99 steps back).

Lately, it's all just a distant memory. I remember the objective fact that I was that person a few years ago, that I explored the universe while laying on the floor in some dude's living room (how's that for an objective fact?), that I experienced actual happiness for the first time in my life, that I managed to stay genuinely happy for months afterward. But it all faded away.

I've wondered ever since if folks who manage to maintain that sense of wonder afterwards do something different, or approach it differently.
I like this decision. I'm not a believer of remote work. I believe it decreases overall company efficiency and creativity. Execution also suffers.

I've always wondered what would happen if you simply ignored zoning laws in construction, assuming you could exceed the legitimate safety requirements and use modern technology (modular construction, etc.) to do it quickly (weeks) and fund everything from cash vs. bank finance. Would SFPD actually send armed police to intervene (on camera, livestreamed...) or just a bunch of stupid civil actions?
You don't have to be trained and practicing in a field to know some things about it. Nobody should be making medical decisions solely on the advice of strangers on internet forums, but being a public defender doesn't automatically disqualify someone from being a credible source of sound medical information just like being a doctor doesn't automatically make a person credible.

After all, in my country we have a doctor telling people that their illnesses were caused by demon sperm and being on record saying that medical treatments come from alien DNA yet they're still allowed to keep their medical license and practice thanks to the Texas Medical Board.

It's possible that our public_defender is entirely wrong, but isn't better to attack the false claim than to attack a person or dismiss their opinions on the basis of their job title? Don't you suspect that you yourself have some useful information on things outside of your job description?

But STEM graduates from China really aren't the same. And they aren't working in the kind of system that would promote progress. Or even select for performance properly. Additionally it's not like every Chinese high school student has the same access to higher education. It does depend on location, wealth and the guanxi of his parents.

Overall the economic growth is clearly faltering. And with a GDP growth rate that is only one or two percentage points ahead of "the West" the catching up is going to take a lot longer. It's quite the same with education, which is just another industry among many. China is running into a glass ceiling because of its system.

Additionally there is an economic world war raging right now, mostly against Russia. But China is increasingly getting on the wrong side of this, with much of the world opposing China.
