AXIS cameras are pretty expensive, but they are definitely pretty great.

Another option is VIVOTEK which is based out of Taiwan, and make NDAA-compliant cameras. Admittedly the software is not as polished as AXIS’ and the control panel is a bit of an eyesore, but they do support all the basic and intermediate features you may want.

> Meanwhile, Polish gov't uses Microsoft Teams [1] as one of ways of verifying citizens who are applying for trusted profile service.

Preface: Teams is horrible and it's super bloated for a simple chat app, but it's a mainstay for remote work along Slack and Zoom unfortunately.

It's still better than the architecture using ID.me they built for unemployment benefits during COVID which in FL was subsequently hacked and leaked all kinds of personal info (that was already leaked with Equihax). The CEO then brazenly said it was not his company's responsibility to secure for attacks from hackers!

> The DEO hired ID.me last spring, an identity verification company, in order to confirm the identities of agency clients when they access their CONNECT accounts. However, ID.me was not hired to protect against hackers. Nixon said the DEO recommends that victims of the hacking “monitor their financial accounts, and if they see any unauthorized activity, they should promptly contact their financial institution.”

This kind of nepotism has to be called out for the crime that it is, good on Hesse for taking the initiative to do so, lets see if they move to FOSS. The Libre suite does everything word used to do without all the cloud BS that makes it entirely un-useable if you have ever spent 10 mins using a Linux distro.

I just found a quote from a ID.ME rep on their subreddit [1] that 'didn't age very well' as they say in light of what happened soon after:

Security and the protection of our users is our BIGGEST concern. This is why we are very much user based. Any information that we have is sent through users. You are able to revoke your accounts at any time. We have security teams that work overtime to make sure hacks and fraudsters do not happen. Thorough investigations and screenings happen on the backend to protect our users.

And it gets worse in 2022 [2], they swapped CEOs but the MO remains in place: fleece pubic agencies and lock people out of their UI benefits.

Ah okay, this I actually know; see exhibit 115-1 on page 15 and repeated on page 23 from FTXs docket [1] managed by Kroll here: https://imgur.com/a/GxPEzIp (sorry for sloppy screenshot, on my phone).

What Elon is alluding to is a “roll over”. So, assume you have a house you bought with your brother 60/40% that you want to sell for $1M. What you can do is your brother “rolls over” which amounts to basically (assume no debt aka mortgage) his 40% which mathematically is the same as if he cashed out $400k at close simultaneously with you, and immediately reinvested it into the house with the new buyer. Elons choice of words suggests one of two things: a) no new money came in but FTX rolled over into the take private, reducing the financing Elon had to bring to the table OR b) he did not offer that to FTX and he essentially redeemed their stake and wrote a check at closing. Not sure which is true.

The exhibit suggests that FTX does indeed own 0%, however considering the required creditor matrix was filed confidentially in redacted fashion with the court, who knows what’s real.

Kinda nutty how much stuff FTX “bought”.

Thank you very much for your reply. I'm considering this position because I've spent the last few months primarily in a BE-dev/PO role. The project is in disarray because everyone starts to leave it.
Someone had to replace them, so I ended up taking over the role as a PO/BE-dev for the last few months. Now is my turn to say goodbye and to search for a new role, and last week this offer to be a product owner came in, and since then I have been thinking about the pros and cons, which became much clearer with the help of your answer now.

Most interesting is a user story[1] shared giving an idea of how often this happens: 3 times over 8 months, with ~5 calls a week. We could round it at around 1% error rate. It's both relatively low (as a chance it happens to you), and extremely high (I can't imagine how many people might have the issue and not be aware of it!).

I'm sure there are other conditions that aren't identified here, but this definitely warrants more regulatory scrutiny.

Hey, https://allaboutberlin.com/ is great! Wish I have stumbled upon this earlier :)
I thought it made the comment look like it was posted by a bot, in an attempt to troll (some) humans into turning against humans.txt, leaving robots.txt as the "winner".

Not knowing whether this was intended by a human ironically, or actually posted by a bot, or is just the result of someone not getting enough sleep and/or a stray cat on the keyboard, was part of the intrigue.
I don't know what the experience is like on Windows, but on other platforms it barely works. Super buggy. Super flakey. Super slow.

I haven’t used teams that much, but one annoyance I found immediately is that it uses the lowest resolution of my webcam and doesn’t offer a way to change it to other resolutions. Slack and FaceTime both work fine with the same camera, but with FaceTime it looks like I have a camera from the ‘90s.
Show HN: Recycle your old Spotify playlists into new ones
I wanted a way to quickly generate new Spotify playlists from my library based on some simple user inputs. There are probably a bunch of songs floating around in old playlists that you will never listen to again so the Spotify Playlist Recycling Plant is an attempt to resurrect these forgotten gems!

At the heart of this tool is a simple custom algorithm that uses Spotify's 5000+ unique genres to find similar artists. It works well for my purposes but everybody uses Spotify differently so I'd love some feedback :)

This is an idiotic rationalization even if it is true that this is the motivation behind allowing ransacking to go unchecked. You're essentially funding the creation and expansion of criminal gangs. Training up a whole generation of people to become looters with little fear of the law. Take this a few steps further, the article mentions that retailers have begun keeping product off the shelves or even completely shutting down outlets in problem areas. What happens when this becomes general policy and there are no more easy targets to loot? Do you think that every person who has grown accustom to this lifestyle and has forgone legal work in favor of this more profitable option is just going to look around and say "oh well, it was good while it lasted. Guess I'll go get a job at McDonald's and be a law abiding citizen", fuck no, they're going to look for other targets but now they have possibly years of experience and contacts with other criminals allowing them to go after other options that they wouldn't have considered before.

This isn't hyperbole, just look at what happens in other countries that lack the ability to enforce their laws.

My experience sitting in on 112 dispatchers as part of my EMS training was different. Multiple times per shift a caller would just start the conversation with something like “This is no emergency, I'm an employee of Vodafone/T-Mobile/etc and have to test 112”. Only network operators calling this way though, no phone manufacturers.

When it’s a matter of life and death, like in this case, bugs shouldn’t just happen. If your sw product gets too complex so that you’re not able to control anymore of life-threatening bugs then you should make sure that said product gets rid of its complexity so that the engineers can have a better grasp of it.

If that still doesn’t happen then it’s a job for the regulators to step again because, again, this is a life and death situation.

In Spain they use Zoom for the same thing.

It's really astonishing how governments, especially the European ones, don't cluster on open-source and self-hosted resources for all of these things. To be honest, I know the "easy answer" to this: "IT consulting firms, incompetence, bureaucracy and corruption", but even with that, it should be possible to do it with open system and not just rely on some other countries even for the software.

Obviously it doesn't always happen, a cold doesn't make you more sociable. On the other hand a cold virus that managed to pull that off through some freak mutation would easily outcompete all other variants.

Mitochondria are a bit special in that it's mutually beneficial, but the same could be said about the above cold virus, if the other symptoms are mild enough.
That’s the claim made by someone running for office on a tough on crime platform, so I’d want a more objective source and especially comparisons to other cities.

For example, one other explanation is that police have gone on a soft-strike trying to reduce popular support for anti-police brutality laws. If that were the case, the focus should instead be on disciplinary measures for the officers who aren’t answering calls.

The big thing we’d really want would be comparisons with other cities. We hear a lot about NYC and LA both because they’re large but also because they are synonymous with liberal in right-wing media, where billions of dollars annually are spent promoting that narrative. One of the first questions should be comparing rates to less popularly-mentioned cities, especially in states where sentencing thresholds haven’t changed.
A lot of cameras are for sale with such additional compute, but the only people with them are developers. Corporations that want/need security tend to have large legacy camera networks that one is lucky if they support HD resolution above 720p. I worked for a leading enterprise FR video security company, and the majority of their clients are firms with anywhere from a few hundred to several tens of thousands of original generation IP cameras, which they very slowly replace with something as close to what they already have. They want to continue to use their older cameras too, often because their network and number of cameras fit, higher resolution and greater bandwidth cameras simply can't fit into their live and operating design.
How does that dispute anything I said? It’s still affluent people buying the phone and wouldn’t struggle buying a $10 USB wall charger.
It’s not for everyone. It’s not for most people. But some people seem fine with such a life. Most successful professors at least in biology I know live like that all their lives. Tbh they live quite long lived and often have the acuity in their 70s you don’t even find in the average 20yo.

I myself rejected that tbh, as much as I was able to do it. Didn’t think the mediocre crap they were doing was worth that effort. If some day I find something I truly care about maybe sure.

> then just implement persistence layer

There is two ways of thinking:

1) The database schema is the fundamental model of the business, and all application logic is built on top of that.

2) The application logic is the core and the database is just a utility for persistence of data.

I'm firmly in the first camp and assume the GP is also. I believe data is more crucial and will last longer than any specific application. Thinking of the database as mere "persistence" for application logic is putting the cart before the horse.

I also believe in Fred Brooks:

Our entire scientific/technological culture is founded upon our ability to focus our attention.

To focus on the task at hand. On the puzzle that needs solving. To study, think, engineer, etc.

We learn to focus in school. People who are good at focusing get good grades and make lots of money.

Unfortunately focus has a horrible flipside. To focus is also to ignore. When you focus on one thing you ignore 1000 other things.

That 1000 things. That's basically the whole world. Rendered invisible by our wonderful trick of focus.

That invisible zone, that's where we dump our shit, where the torture is conducted, where the rotting dying billions reside.
