On a streak so far.

I'm playing "can you tell which picture has a non blurry background and has no artifacts?"

edit: My first mistake is when I thought a piece of fabric on a human was unusually warped.
Yea if you read it they actually did come visit him and ascertained it was nothing. But a school cop unilaterally decided to ignore that evidence and arrested him and made no mention in charging him that they had visited him, he had cooperated, that it was lyrics, that he assured them he had no malice, and that everyone had agreed it was nothing. That’s the premise of why qualified immunity was denied - the officer knew all these facts because he was there, along with several other officers, yet willfully ignored that and omitted it in charging him. I couldn’t find any details about the ultimate resolution of the case, just the judges denial of qualified immunity.
But there is nothing different about 555 numbers than any other, and Verizon certainly doesn’t charge $2500 for a normal number.
I tried many players and was using Strawberry lately because it is pretty light and has nice features.

But, it was good for music only, not for radio and other audio files.

I have never seen anything about Sayonara before but tried it after your post. Thank you.

It's lighter, more feature-full and I can let go ofStrawberry, MPV and Goodvibes.
Frame construction is generally much poorer quality. I've had them break from just taking them off my face too fast.

Face fit is tricky, they allow you to select things like your "size" but this is broken down into "small/medium/large" when in reality it needs to take into account things like temple (arm) length, bridge width, etc.

My main pair is perfect because I spent the big bucks on them and had a professional constantly tweaking them, putting them back on my face, tweaking them some more. And that comes with the ability to return to the store and have them do it again for free if I feel like I need to.

Online you won't get any of that, so the fit isn't perfect.

Optical clarity, no complaints. The lenses are good.

But we're talking $500+ vs. $80.

> The simplest approach for crypto exchanges to prevent bank runs would be to not lend out or trade with deposits.

Except the consumer is drawn to the crypto-exchanges with significant "staking" rewards. Like Crypto.com or FTX.

When you're promising free money, you can't just sit on the money. You gotta lend it out to generate those staking rewards.

Now maybe, just _maybe_, the lending out of customer deposits could be a tightly regulated activity. Maybe regulations upon the types of securities that you lend to (ie: to AAA rated corporates), as well as maturity (ex: 1-week expiration or daily expiration).

Oh wait, that's a Money Market Fund. Add on FDIC insurance and you're now at a federally regulated savings account.

What you have running under WSL is more inline with the question, since it is about OSs and not "what virtualization do you use". Although at least it's half an answer if you use Windows as part of your dev stack.

Although I do use it on my laptop, I wouldn't consider WSL stable. If the boot loader or anything involved with the boot process goes kaput, there is nothing you can do but delete it and reinstall. There isn't even a rescue mode, and you can't just fiddle with the partition tables. At least on a physical Linux partition, you should still be able to mount the drive and get to your data, and you have a gazillion rescue options.
Zabbix (specifically Zabbix Agent 2) has a built-in support for smartctl and template for it.
BTW I think the fact that in Go, your program can change out from underneath you based on whether an array gets realloced is so much more disturbing: https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/programming/GoSlice...

It is genuinely shocking to me that people just live with this. This is completely inexpressible with safe Rust, as it should be.
I found this paper relevant, titled "Wealth Inequality and Return Heterogeneity During the COVID-19 Pandemic"; specifically this part of the abstract:

"We show that portfolio heterogeneity and asset price movements are the main determinants of wealth returns and inequality, whereas saving-rate heterogeneity and within-class return differences played a minor role. As the stock market continued to outperform the housing market, the return of the wealthy has risen faster than that of other households, reinforcing the wealth concentration at the top."

Oh, and the time limitation in the graph you reference only goes back to 1989. The recessions since the 80's have involved increasing federal bailouts and don't result in the kind of long term impact of organic corrections required to support the statement "wealth inequality only improves during recessions". With the fed stepping in and propping up failing corporations, that statement is only true for the narrow window of time at the start of the correction to where the stock price drops precipitously. Once the market responds to the bailout it is no longer a true statement because the most wealthy have taken advantage of the price decrease while individuals with smaller net worth eventually, but only, recover what they lost.

Taking a step back, I find your statement odd. Do you truly believe that or did you post that comment knowing it to be untrue in the hope to generate more discussion and push your user rank up in this system? Conspiratorial thinking on my part, but it only took me 15-20 minutes of reading to conclusively prove your statement untrue, and I'm not an economist. In light of that, it just seems...odd.

In this case perp is short for “Perpetual Swap” (or “perpetual future” depending on the way the structure is set up) ie there is no expiry date. But yes.

It could equally be short for “perpetrator” in this case in particular.

> Isn't that their job?

This is specifically New Zealand and this is an article about what is their job.

Here it is revealed they are permitted (under warrent) to copy data from NZ citizens networks | home devices.

It also indicates they are not permitted to keep that copy "for later on" after it has been examined.

There are many facets to SigInt - not the least (and one of the earliest applications) is the simple recording and mapping of messages - not their contents, just the mere fact that a message was broadcast or sent from Location X at Time T.

Here, specifically, the discussion is about the intrusion into a network (home LAN, etc) to retrieve data rather than the mere recording of a transmission across a wire or through a public network.

> "Our legislation ... allows us to access information infrastructures, which is more than just interception," the Director-General of the Government Communications Security Bureau, Andrew Hampton, said.

> It "also allows us to retrieve digital information directly from where it is stored or processed".
If you’re seeing delays, get out now. Don’t think about it. Pull as much money as possible, out, now.

The exact same thing happened at Gox. I did all kinds of mental rationalizations. Oh, they’re too big. Oh, failure was unlikely.

I managed to siphon out 7 BTC. Then I traded it 2:1 with some fellow from IRC for his BTC locked up in Gox. Woo, I was going to make a 14 BTC payday.

Nope. In fact, trading was still open on the exchange. I took a risk with that goxcoin. When the dust settled, I was left with 7.76 BTC that I couldn’t access. It’s still there. That was almost 10 years ago.

Don’t make my mistake. The very first sign that there was a problem was delays, followed by transactions over a certain amount not processing. People seem to be reporting both.
Different models of heat pumps vary wildly in how well they can handle very cold temperatures. Personal experience with one or two different heat pumps is practically meaningless.
I suppose the key reason is ABI is not defined by the language standard? Nor is it is something (AFAIK) that would be standardized on Windows. This is not the same thing as binary compatibility on windows but rather about the internals of virtual function tables and so on.

There are other problems as well from the "hands off" quality of the standard.

Endemic of how bad the situation is regarding C++ DLL:s is that you can't free memory in a different C++ DLL than where it was allocated. Well, you _can_ but most of the time you shouldn't.
While we are at it, lets make any software paid for with tax dollars open source.
> Why does every non-Windows compiler insist on bringing a non-Windows ABI to Windows?

Isn't the point of a using a different compiler to let it compile your code in different ways? Having to meet an arbitrary ABI is a limiting restriction you may not want.
I believe there is already a few 10s of nm thick layer of indium in production processes for that purpose (or to stabilize bonding?).

Copper metallization works (usually with a nickel layer and a silver electroplate on top which uses substantially less Ag than a nuclear reactor of the same net power), but is presently considered cost prohibitive process-wise as it adds a few steps. The current process being rolled out is silver plated copper paste (each copper bead has a 10-30% silver coating) as well as some techs for laying it down more consistently (aligned screen printing where the line never crosses two layers of mesh, and once it matures, depositing it with laser).

Silver consumption may briefly increase if the above facilitate a switch to heterojunction or topcon cells, but as soon as one of the 3 tandem chemistries being tried per day shows itself as a winner the voltage will increase and the fingers will get significantly smaller (to the point where Al may not cause a shading problem). At that point the shills will start whining about a 100nm thick layer of lead containing molecules while ignoring that it's less lead than your average tuna.

I'll simply observe that it is easy to tell a fake face when presented an either/or choice and when specifically asked to. Most of the time we aren't looking as closely, so while I see some commenters being very happy about their accomplishments, I don't personally see a reason to rejoice.

Regardless, the AP news article[1] linked under the "methods" page provides some useful reading on how to detect these faces, for anyone interested.

It is only seven digits, so it doesn't start with a 3-digit area code. In the past, seven digit phone numbers in the United States would just default to whatever area code you were calling from. Now we need to enter all ten digits, area code included, due to mobile phones and such. That number could, and does, exist for many US area codes.
the solution isn't to use a different company exchange, its to go on-chain directly.....

any company exchange that is not lending customer assets will function completely fine during a bank run even if 100% of assets are withdrawn in quick succession, nobody should have anything to worry about ever, but so far these are mismanaged companies with poor collateral choices for their creditworthiness.

many crypto skeptics only see headlines when things go wrong, but many people that use crypto regularly know that there are plenty of exchanges and services that have had 100% withdrawals just fine, something that would be called a "stress test" on poorly run services or a "black swan" in the traditional banking world. these big ones from the last cycle got hooked on leverage, the ones that didn't will be fine as long as they stick to just running an exchange instead of additional overhead.

Rather than the forgiveable loan scheme, I would have implemented as a rebate to employer on say 5% of the payroll tax they remitted to the feds. That would precisely track actual payrolls without the application hurdles.

What an incredibly timely post.

In 2016, when I first tried this, the answer back then was "absolutely not." Between a Wi-Fi only iPad, a not-so-great official keyboard, iPadOS being too touch friendly, and it being militant about backgrounding, that experiment was largely a failure.

Today, like four hours before I saw this post, I am deciding to give it another go and trading in my MacBook Pro and 11" iPad Pro for a 12" iPad Pro and a Mac Mini.

Tailscale, cellular iPads, the Magic Keyboards, and the iPad's being on M1 chips has made them much more viable for being a true laptop replacement. It's not ready to completely absolve me of a desktop (can't write code locally on it...yet), but it's getting there for sure.

If you like Patrick Lencioni's books, you may also like Gino Wickman's, especially 'Get a grip', which is written in a similar 'fable' style.

If you're in San Francisco, and ever pass near 17th and Valencia, pop into Community Thrift. There are usually 1-3 Lencioni books available for $2-$3 each. The business books are at the South East corner of the store, diagonally opposite the entrance.
Well don't go within 10km of a road then. Brake disks are full of it, and pads have much worse. Then there's all the ground up rubber, bitumen and glass. If anything the filtered outlet vent of a recycling facility would reduce this.
It was just a bit of napkin mathematics seasoned with some quickly searched statistics of averages. The greater point is that thin clients become truly relevant when the user also owns the rendering machine, think of self-cloud.
check out blink. very good shell for the iPad.
I picked up a copy of this book when I needed to design a class AB amplifier for non-audio purposes and found it very helpful. There’s a lot of theory and discussion of different options (transistor types, bias networks, etc.) rather than just presenting one “right” way to do things.
The other currencies are weakening faster than the dollar. You care about what you can actually buy with a currency not just it’s exchange rate.
That's when you add a flag (or annotation/attribute/whatever) to let users switch to an unconventional ABI when they really want to. That doesn't mean your default choice has to be something that deliberately defies the convention and makes life harder for everyone by default.
Look not at the face but around the ears and the backgrounds.
I will sound negative on purpose, I wish to be wrong.

Everything so far in my life seems to be "if you want to be good at something, do that thing repeatedly, or the parts that compose that thing, repeatdly".
It makes sense.
So why would this be any different, wouldn't use your brain to learn, be the best cognitive exercise?
I always figured that the TV design is still "panel with one of a narrow range of common interfaces, and the smarts being on the controller."

Otherwise it would be difficult for small manufacturers-- who are typically not custom-ordering panels, and likely switching between vendors based on best-offer-of-the-day-- to integrate in a reasonable manner.

Ha, I have a few of these. The script looks handy, I might try it out.

> You may be thinking, “Kindles have famously long battery life. Can I run this without having to plug it in?” The short answer is, not really. In previous iterations of this project I tried hard to make it work. The main challenge is that in order to keep the screen refreshing, we can’t let the Kindle go to sleep — you might get weeks of battery life from a Kindle you use for reading, but it’s because most of that time it’s hibernating. Power consumption is very low when it’s awake and the screen isn’t changing, but it’s not nothing. With a lot of effort (refreshing only once a day, and turning off the wi-fi radio when I wasn’t actively using it), I was able to get the battery life up to about a week. Refreshing only once a day is okay for some purposes, but for data that needs to be fresh it’s not really good enough. Also, having to take the Kindle down to recharge it even once a week got to be pretty annoying.

Haha, yeah. The Kindle does have a timer that allows it to wake up from sleep (there are some tricks to prevent it from crashing). At very low refresh rates (once per day) you should be able to get a good bit more battery life, but I haven't yet tried.

I've also put a lot of thought into this, since I'd really like to hang the thing somewhere without any wires sticking out.

Unfortunately even waking the thing from sleep, connecting to a WiFi and checking for new data requires a significant amount of energy. I've been thinking of ways to reduce this with an external device that would run on BLE, Thread or ESP-Now (and check for data much more efficiently, only waking the device when data is actually available), but I haven't been able to wake the device up via UART. The processor allegedly supports it with an extra kernel parameter, but I haven't been able to get it to work (either I couldn't set the parameter or it had no effect, not sure anymore).

It's so easy to get trapped in a local minima when with just a little effort you can have a much better time. I got so much happier when I made a conscious effort to play videogames instead of doomscrolling.
That's not always a workaround for ITAR. If you're from a 5EYES or otherwise friendly country you can probably sign a TAA and get involved, but dual citizenship or otherwise holding strong ties (e.g. country of birth) to an "ITAR naughty list" (China, NK, Russia, Iran, etc.) country is enough to permanently render you ineligible to work with ITAR.

E.g. someone who was born in China, became a citizen of the USA, and renounced their Chinese citizenship would still never be allowed to work on ITAR. This is to prevent cases such as they steal some ITAR controlled info or materiel and flee back to China (and get their Chinese citizenship back as part of whatever espionage deal occurred).

Unfortunate for those who are truly passionate and have no malicious intent, but security comes first.
For me personally what has worked is going to bed early and waking up early before the world's distractions begin. This gives me 1 to 2 hours every day uninterrupted to work on projects. Why it's working better for me then staying up late to tinker is because I'm guaranteed not to have excuses or distractions such as working into the evening on my day job.

Added bonus not waking up tired. Took me about a month to adapt to this routine given I've never - ever - been a morning person in my life. And I'm still not if I go to bed late.

Completely cut out all alcohol which ensures better quality sleep - ready to start the day by working on a fun project.

If you have issues on Coinbase don't ever expect to reach anyone. It's a shame they keep getting promoted here as they are not much better than FTX

Theoretically you should have an identical experience with VMWare on the Mac. So in that case, I'd just go for the faster machine or the one with better hardware options. Whatever gives you the most options for productivity. Which may very well might be the Windows desktop, but it should "just work" in either place just as well.
Precisely, the users, by definition, care only about the user interface. The matmul machine can be hidden in any box, just that so far it has been tied in same box with the screen. Hence why the greater point is that thin clients are relevant if the user owns the matmul box.
