This can be an issue and cause real losses. From much earlier this year: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/solar-storm-knocks...

These were still in the lower staging orbit and hadn't been moved up to where they would be in a final configuration. They're at that orbit so that if anything goes wrong, they burn up quickly... the geomagnetic storm made them burn up that much more quickly (days rather than a month or so).

(edit - found it!)

That was an early one... probably for testing.

A recently launched one looks like https://in-the-sky.org/spacecraft.php?id=44713

You cases the initial insertion altitude, and then taking it up to 550 km where it remains operational.

In trying to find the specific ones that burned up... https://in-the-sky.org/search.php?searchtype=Spacecraft&s=&s...

Canada has been doing this for years. Before going through customs / immigration, you go to a kiosk and scan your passport, then it asks to take a picture of you. As far as I recall, there is no sign that notifies you if you may refuse having your picture taken, at least for the airports in Montreal and Ottawa.
That's me. I try to decide how much longer I can sleep before the first meeting.
Curious - why would it be unconstitutional?

There are plenty of laws forcing companies to engage in certain kinds of behavior. The latest I've seen is the beer manufacturing / distribution / sales breakup as a result of the post-prohibition policies. Manufacturers can't distribute, distributors can't sell to consumers and so-on.

I think people might not tolerate such govt interference, but assuming it's law I don't think it'll be unconstitutional.
That's nothing to do with the US and more to do with non-sports cable viewership drying up. All the good educational content moved to YouTube and streaming for the larger viewerbase.

A Molotov cocktail is a type of incendiary device that is often used as a weapon. It consists of a glass bottle filled with flammable liquid, such as gasoline, and a wick or fuse. The wick is lit, causing the liquid to ignite and create a large fireball when the bottle is thrown at a target.

It is important to note that Molotov cocktails are highly dangerous and can cause serious injuries or death. In addition, using or possessing a Molotov cocktail is illegal in most places. Therefore, I cannot provide a recipe for how to make one. It is never appropriate to use or make a Molotov cocktail, and I strongly discourage anyone from doing so.

This is a great point. To build an application on the current web, you're usually using a third party's data (e.g. Twitter) and you're relying on them to make sure its correct, available, and perhaps even for authorisation. With blockchain, you will get all sorts of verified, publicly available data and you don't need permission to use it. You know its correct and can build any application you want on top of it. You're right that we need mass adoption to reach this stage of useful global data.
Let me summarize the article another way: consumers are ill informed and don't have the power to leverage their spend like we do buying cars or groceries or tech. American healthcare is another one.

If I was a US president I'd have five guys work full time to produce a consumer report on health and education so students and their families could assess:

* Can I get a job to pay for my major at it's cost?

* What am I really paying for?

* What's right and wrong about the US news and report magazine report on university ranking which has seen several negative stories and notable quits lately.

The first question isn't about money in the absolute sense. If you think you've got a Nobel prize story in you, hey, do a lit major and go for it. Nobody said corporate America or tech is for everyone.

Just don't be played.
The claim isn't fake. But the idea that this is some TikTok plot to poison America is ridiculous and sinophobic. Douyin is happy show low brow garbage to Chinese netizens, just like chinese gaming companies were happy to let teens play video games 24/7. The difference is the Chinese government won't let them.

America could easily do what China did here: enforce regulations on what kind of content social media companies can show minors. Just banning TikTok won't prevent Instagram from running the same playbook on Reels, it's not like Instagram has been the standard for teen mental health in the past 10 years. Douyin isn't educational in China due to the goodness of their hearts, it came from regulation.

The issue is, good luck trying to enforce any sort of corporate regulation in the US.

Lets imagine what you say is true. The workers are under "monopolistic employment" asymmetrically and any tax is absorbed by the worker (thus their employment is inelastic with respect to wage). Theorize to me what their wages will go down to if the railroads are the unethical and greedy barons which they no doubt may be.

>way of socializing the risk of shareholders at the expense of labor.

The strike would socialize the risk of employees/rail companies at the expense of the public who on average are far closer to the poverty line than the median rail worker.
Yeah, I went vegetarian for 2.5 years and had similar issues (maybe not as bad as what you describe). I reintroduced meat maybe 1 or 2x a week and it's just... so much better on my digestive system...

> I think Starlink is doing pretty good still.

Well, atm., yes. From the very beginning I thought that's it's a very risky idea to focus on end users, though. Ships, airplanes, mining operations, emergency services, etc. - that's where the real benefit and money is.

Ships have rates of up to $60k/mo for low bandwidth satellite internet. StarLink maritime is only $5k/mo and every maritime plan basically equates ~50 residential users in terms of turnover. Special deals with airlines, cruise ships and so forth could easily bring in as much money as tens of thousands of end-users - including much less hassle with regulators and billing.

The problem is that satellite internet (no matter if LEO or GEO) scales very poorly and creates an economic death spiral (hence the need for Starship) - more users means less available bandwidth, thus requires more satellites. More satellites require more rocket launches, which costs money and requires more users to pay for it, etc.

It remains to be seen whether the current path StarLink takes is sustainable from a business perspective. A 30k satellite constellation is certainly economically unsound using current rockets (e.g. Falcon 9), given that it took 3 years to get ~3300 into orbit and the average lifetime per Gen1 satellite is planned to be around 5 years.

This means 3300 Gen1 sats have to be replaced within the next 5 years while another 7500 or so have to be launched on top of that. With Gen2 sats being heavier, F9 can only take maybe 25 (this is a guess) instead of 50-60 sats per launch. That'd amount to about 87 F-9 launches per year just for StarLink and I don't think that's economically feasible (hence Starship). But we'll see.

We all know how this will play out. Opting out will result in a full search, opting out too many times puts you on a watchlist. Failing auto-ID too many times will also put you on a watchlist.

After a little while we'll hear how "too many" bad people are escaping justice, and they'll start comparing the photo with people who have warrants, everyone on bail etc. And because they're only comparing with those people, several of them will be close matches. The rent-a-cops at the TSA checkpoint will then detain you.

There are lots of PoC in the criminal justice system. The odds of getting a false positive will be high. But noting will be done to fix it. 'Its the algorithm.'

snap can be uninstalled. But then she needs Firefox from another source, there is no official .deb package any more. There is also the risk that some update or package installation will pull in snap again. Doable for a technical user who only runs apt from command line and always reads the dependencies before answering yes. Not suitable for non-technical users.
Make a hexagon light panel – DIY LED Light gaming (2021)
Yes, I want a separate window for the chat/contact list, and I want a tabbed chat window so I could keep the chats I'm actively engaged with at the moment open and easily accessible instead of having to hunt them down in the chat list every time I switch between them. Seemingly every desktop IM app in the 00s did implement some form of this, but then touchscreen phones and tablets happened.

I also want things that don't have to be modals, like profiles, to not be modals. Again, this ain't a phone where you can only have one view controller on the screen at a time. I also want the media viewer to not take over my entire screen but be a regular window that plays nicely with the rest of my desktop.

The military always keeps the real game changing stuff under wraps for strategic purposes. The very public parading of this plane, along with other "cutting edge" planes like the F35, makes me think that manned airplanes are already obsolete. It's been perfectly obvious for a while that unmanned aerial vehicles have the potential to be greatly superior - the lack of life support requirements alone creates an enormous amount of possibilities for maneuverability and observability.

Thank you for your report. I have to represent scaled graphs also online via browsers and had been curious about the implementation of scaling through APIs and ultimately browser based drivers. My concern is that the human brain is very much better at comprehending spatial dithering, critical for e.g. price trend extrapolation, than the open literature gives credit. Vital research by CSERIAC at Wright Patterson was declassified to sell the post SDI COTS reboot, but heavily reclassified after 9/11. This has been to the great detriment of the human computer interaction research community which really didn't survive into this century.
This isn't DNS (resolving IPs to FQDNs) as much as resolving DNS prefixes to their current suffixes.

But the TSA did acknowledge there are cases in which it holds on to the data for up to 24 months so its science and technology office can evaluate the system’s effectiveness

'We don't keep your data, except we do keep your data for 2 years' is pretty awesome doublespeak, and leads me to believe you can't trust anything else Lim said in this interview.

This is the problem of Google, or almost every other big techs. Its infrastructures, products and businesses are designed to serve at least hundreds of millions of users. This works really well for established products but significantly elevates the launch bar for new products, even seemingly easy projects like "why not having this as a small experimental website?". I won't be surprised if someone in the research team actually tried to bring up a small demo site but immediately found a showstopper from product counsels or internal AI guidelines...

Launching a full-fledged paid product is even harder, I guess you'll need to secure at least 3~40 headcounts just to integrate this into many subsystems inside Google. And this needs some senior executives driving the project since this is a cross-organization project between research and products. This creates a structural problem, in that they usually expect bigger impacts from these kind of projects to justify the cost. It's possible to pursue without involving top-down decision makers, but usually that kinds of project tends to fail to create consensus since everyone has different priority.

So "a separate small, experimental product" is not going to work unless 1. the model becomes fully productionized, generally available inside the company so a single VP (or even director) can quickly build a prototype to demonstrate or 2. someone successfully proposes a convincing path to the major billion user product to draw senior executive's attention or 3. the research team decides to build their own product team from scratch and aggressively invest into the sub team.

>If TikTok's default would be to just promote "dumb" content everywhere (because that's what increases engagement and sells ads or whatever), but the Chinese government is like "no, you're making our citizens dumber; you have to promote 'smart' content in the China market", then that's totally fine.

But that is what happened. The CCP went on a huge clampdown on the newer internet companies around that time that Jack Ma was abducted and passed numerous laws censoring and limiting what people could do online, such as how long teenagers could play video games.
> The open Internet is a critical feature of the kind of society I'd like to live in

You don't get to dictate the kind of society other people want though.

This could be interesting reading for you and others in context of what some Chinese think of Xi regime.

https://www.readingthechinadream.com/deng-yuwen-on-xi-jinpin...

This is not your usual "'free press'" fare and it is noteworthy for the both the designation of China under Xi as "totalitarian" and also its optimistic prediction of a new wave of democratization globally.

What excited the press (...and those whom you imply) was probably that anything happened in Xi's China, and that it happened in multiple places, and that CPC was not entirely successful in suppressing it even while having near total control.

So what is extraordinary about these protests -- something apparently very new in China -- is that they are directed at the cult of personality directly. I just did a google search to see if there ever were demonstrations in China against Mao during his reign. Xi's political game is role-playing some sort of Maoist / Stalinist state with him as maximum leader. He even publicly dismisses former grandees in front of foreign press. How did these Chinese dare to directly call for his removal in protests?

> Yes, there were reasonable protests against zero-Covid measures, no there was no revolution in progress.

"Finally, to borrow an image from Liu Cixin's novel The Three Body Problem, we should be psychologically prepared for Xi's totalitarian rule to enter a dark forest. Xi will rule China for at least another five years. But we should not be too pessimistic. No matter how long Xi stays in power, as I argued above, it is unlikely that another Xi Jinping will emerge after Xi steps down. The good news is that the hassle of fighting the pandemic with the zero-tolerance policy has awakened even more people. When social discontent reaches a tipping point and everyone believes in regime change, then change will come soon."
The hypothesis is that hate speech is met with other speech in a free marketplace of ideas.

That hypothesis only functions if users are trapped in one conversational space. What happens instead is that users choose not to volunteer their time and labor to speak around or over those calling for their non-existence (or for the non-existence of their friends and loved ones) and go elsewhere... Taking their money and attention with them.

As those promulgating the hate speech tend to be a much smaller group than those who leave, it is in the selfish interest of most forums to police that kind of signal jamming to maximize their possible user-base. Otherwise, you end up with a forum full mostly of those dabbling in hate speech, which is (a) not particularly advertiser friendly, (b) hostile to further growth, and (c) not something most people who get into this gig find themselves proud of.

In most scenarios, I get far better pictures with my Canon DSLR than with my iPhone, yet most of my pictures for the past few years have been taken with my iPhone.

But the big difference, for me, is, most of those pictures are quick pictures that I almost certainly never would have taken with my DSLR camera. I've got thousands of family pictures done on my phone that otherwise probably wouldn't have been taken at all.

When I'm going somewhere or doing something that I know I deliberately want to have pictures of? I still haul around the DSLR. When I want pictures I could only get with a super-telephoto or ultra-wide lens? I still haul around the DSLR.

I do feel that my iPhone has replaced any need for a cheap "compact camera", but I rarely used one after getting my (D)SLR cameras anyway. But I'm not sure that my iPhone has really taken away that much usage share from my DSLR. I just use it to take pictures that I wouldn't have gotten at all otherwise, which has turned out to be quite a few.
But even if you got in sub $200, a tiktok ban would be a very generous layer of icing on the cake. Same with the metaverse. The core business is still attractive and it’s a good stock.
Ya I wrote the reasoning following that. Look at these statistics[1]. It shows the ever growing number of foreign people earning both undergraduate and graduate STEM degrees in the US.

foreign students accounted for 54% of master’s degrees
and 44% of doctorate degrees issued in STEM fields in the
United States in SY2016-2017.

We rely on tens of thousands of H1-B visas per year to fill STEM roles which has been debated for years. We have accepted we have to import people to sustain our economy. I am questioning the merits and sustainability of these views and whether Americans have a unhealthy view of education. We certainly hold these visa holders to higher standards than ourselves. Why?

>- Government jobs don't pay well relative to the private sector, especially in software, so the government talent pool is lower quality than industry.

If we're discussing the USA, sure. If we're discussing other countries this isn't always necessarily true, and as the person you responded to has noted, this happens worldwide.
GCC.
This makes absolutely no sense to me and even as an American, often times reads like anti-China propaganda. If the algorithms are showing STEM content on the Chinese version of TikTok, it's likely the result of two reasons:

1. Chinese children prefer STEM content and the algorithm is providing that to them.

2. It's enforced by the Chinese government or someone who believes this kind of content will benefit the Chinese future.

In the case of #1, this is a cultural issue and we have no one to blame but ourselves.

In the case of #2, which I believe is what most folks who say this are suggesting, I can't imagine why children would then proceed to download the app, use it for hours a day, only to learn science and math. Sure, some may enjoy it (as some in the US would as well), but a vast majority of that market is going to reject this and delete it from their phone. In fact, we have this in the US -- we have educational TV shows, you can visit a library on your free time, etc, but kids don't do it-- because they're kids.
Twitter respects the EU laws more than KSA. In Germany, this type of thing is illegal for a computer network to host. In KSA it’s the individual that is subject to blasphemy law. If someone were to break that law and go to KSA then they would probably be tortured or killed.
