Stealing disks does happen, especially on-premise, which is where these policies originated.

Also, sometimes there are mistakes with decommissioning old drives, and you wouldn’t want your data discovered in a landfill somewhere.

I wish europe would actually back down on the "environmental" policies and start competing with the developing world, china and the US on energy prices before we end up being surpassed by everyone. I'm going crazy seeing everyone running full speed towards the cliff edge. Renewables simply aren't there yet; it's time to accept that global warming is going to happen and deal with the consequences as they come. Geotechnical works for coastal areas will be expensive but they are possible if you still have a functional economy.
You shouldn't hate to mention it. I'm somewhat anti-GPT (or maybe anti-AI in general) but this would actually be a really good use case.
If the tank burst due to it shearing off of its base then it is not the glass that has the problem; it’s the connection to the base. This might sound pedantic but the OP said the forces on the GLASS were ill-distributed. The most important part of after the fact disaster analysis from an engineering context is being excruciatingly specific about the performance of structural elements.

Well shoot, now I'm concerned. Me and my pregnant wife both drink Crio Bru[1] which is roasted, ground 100% cacao and brewed similar to coffee. This has me thinking twice about it. It sounds like heavy metals may be present in this stuff too

> Buying new cars will not solve problems. No matter if it's an EV or an ICE.

Believe me I agree. Check my post history. :)

> Electricity emissions through its lifetime: if you're in a country that uses primarily natural gas for its electricity production (like the US does), you might as well keep running an ICE instead, it'll be just as bad.

Uses primarily now doesn't have to mean uses primarily for all time. I'm also not sure how to compare here because you have a limited number of natural gas plants, coal plants, etc. and maybe you can reduce that actual output of c02 into the atmosphere. Can't really do that with an ICE. It'll be very difficult as well to really capture the systematic emissions. How do you account, for example, for the US military and required spending to maintain global oil supply? Should we account for it? Idk.

I agree that you raise valid points here in comparing carbon emissions, but these ideas don't translate into facts or "proof", which is what I originally asked for.
I read this differently, it should have put whatever you said in quotation marks, but it clearly is just saying that it doesn't know and therefore you might be right.

Well it's no surprise that it kinda sorta works. Neural networks are very good at learning the underlying structure of things and working with suboptimally represented inputs. But if working with images of spectrograms works better than just samples in time domain, that is a valid and non-obvious finding.
I have the opposite experience, where Oracle would allow/offer discounts up to 80% of their price list, making the actual list pretty much useless...

Of course it's the intention of the user that matters here, I just see that these models give easy access to make extremely derivative works from existing artist's work - and I feel that's an unethical use of the unethically sourced models.

Anyone finding their own artistic voice with the tools, I respect that, those people are artists - but training with the aim to create derivative models, that should be called out.
Can you specify the coincidences? This conspiracy has been written about to death, and the mainstream theory that Oswald assassinated him is the only one that makes any sense.

There is no mainstream/official view.

The House Subcomittee on Assassinations in the 1970's determined the JFK assassination was a conspiracy, they just didn't determine who did it.

I'm not sure what you consider mainstream of official, but I don't think there is a real mainstream or official view. I have read lots of Cold War histories and there isn't a clear historical consensus on who killed JFK. Certainly not on who actually pulled the trigger.

The question of who killed JFK is a historical question now. In the past it was a whodunit, or a murder mystery, but that this point it is definitely a question of history that will forever be debated by historians.
No, there's a significant difference between "prove something happened" and "prove something didn't happen". If there's a document in there detailing a conspiracy by the CIA to kill JFK, and it gets released someday, a lot of people are going to be convinced. It's less true in the other direction.

I don't understand why you don't think that's solving a problem. The Argentine government stealing people's money and forcing them to use a currency it deliberately destroyed is a huge problem. Allowing more people to escape the government's exploitation is good. You are either privileged enough to not live in Argentina or privileged enough to belong to the political elite who are exploiting the rest of the population if you don't think that's a problem. Even if you have no money to circumvent capital controls with, you are still harmed by their existence and benefit from the system being undermined.

Conspiratorial thinking happens when people feel like they are not getting honest answers. The media feeds this when it fails to ask the right questions.
How do you pronounce this? Forge Joe? Forego? Forgeaux?
I don't think it invalidates it, but it's impossible to run 3 companies the size of SpaceX, Tesla, and Twitter so I'm sympathetic to the idea that he might drop by one day to a Tesla and they give him high-fives and tell him what he wants to hear and then once he leaves they get back to whatever they were doing.

Have to imagine investors in Tesla are not happy right now with such divisive activities from Elon Musk in the public sphere and the lack of focus on the company (yes I can say factually he is not focusing enough on Tesla).
It's a mistranscription of the Esperanto word forĝejo, meaning "forge" (i.e. the place where forging happens).

But diacritic marks aren't optional in Esperanto, they change pronunciation and meaning. "Forgejo", which is pronounced with a hard "g" (IPA /g/), is a nonsense word which means something like "distant gay".

The correct transcription without diacritics would be "forghejo".
The fact that they continue to release more stuff over and over gives very legitimate credence to the notion they are hiding something.

It seems clear they don't want us to know something.

Now, it could be more or less political, or personal, or something ultimately mundane, but the conspiracy theorists can make it anything they want of it.

I suggest there might have been something really complicated wherein nobody could point the finger fully at any group, but that the CIA was doing something sketchy, funding the wrong people, Johnson new about it but only in superficial terms, someone somewhere took it too far, it got out of hand and that the truth is just too damaging to the state (and various agencies) itself so they want to keep it hidden.
Never, as long as the CIA still exists. The institutional reputation of the agency is very low right now among large swaths of the population. Imagine what would happen if it was revealed that they had a hand in killing a sitting US president? No matter how long ago it was, their reputation and credibility (and the reputation and credibility of all the institutions and people who continue to uphold them as patriotic defenders of democracy) would be forever tainted (even beyond what it is today).
Subversion merging has mostly been fixed. I haven't really noticed much difference between the two systems.

One place where Subversion historically did better with respect to merging is avoiding merging by allowing you to lock files. We use this with some binary files in our repository. About a year ago Git added similar functionality but I haven't had the chance to try it yet.
That's an interesting idea. I imagine they don't do DoD wipes of their disks because they are probably multi-tenant, right? Can a guest operating system do forensic analysis on the host disk?
Twitter has become a platform I want to avoid actively using because of this. I was on the fence for a little while now.

I host a Friendica instance and have my messages auto-post to Twitter, so that’s my extent of me using Twitter for now. I wouldn’t be surprised if the API for that disappears eventually, and that would remove the last reason I have for even having a profile.

Plane crashes are a major problem for the airlines. When it happens, we all hear about it, often with horrific imagery of wreckage and talk of hundreds of dead people. That's a problem for the popularity of the industry and they'd probably rather pay the victims/insurance than have people lose trust in their safety.

It baffles me how many people seem to have no idea how important software is.

Software runs the world. It runs your healthcare. It runs medical research. It runs space exploration. It runs every science megaproject. None of the engineering feats mentioned above would have been remotely possible without modern software.

And modern software is built with tools like VSCode. In fact, I can pretty much guarantee that VSCode was and is involved in the development and maintenance of every single project listed above.

Software controls lives. Software saves lives. Software is every single bit as important as medicine. If all software suddenly stopped working, civilization would collapse and hundreds of millions, if not billions, of people would die.

It wasn't always so. But it certainly is today.

The end result is still O(n^2) in the number of vertices in the convex hull...

If you didn't just slap together JS libs, but studied the literature, you'd find that the proper algorithm for this problem runs in O(n) time, and is called the "rotating calipers" algorithm.
I know people got hurt (and fish died) but all I can think is, this is a hotel lobby, there most certainly IS security camera footage of the failure and subsequent deluge and man do I want to know what that looked like.

They didn't say natural numbers (at first).
I think the term "building" is a bit of a stretch. Mostly the geodesic domes seem to be used as small greenhouses, and don't have enough weight that even a sudden collapse would really damage the occupants. The manual suggest that the maximum weight for the whole structure should be about 60kg. I'm not really concerned that these things aren't meeting fire code either, you know? You can just pick a wall and tear through it in almost all the examples I've seen in the gallery.

That being said the glass transition point of ABS plastic is 105'c, a little over boiling. I'm not worried about ABS from a thermoplastic perspective, although I am worried about long-term UV performance. I'd also be worried about thermal cycles and plants/mold as most 3D printed ABS will take on water.

I think you'd get a few years out of an ABS plastic component in these circumstances, more if you resin coat it or use acetone vapor smoothing, and start with a filament that has good UV resistance.

Either way I expect 3D printed components to be more expensive and otherwise worse than one manufactured by this company, but being able to repair stuff like this if you need to is important and it's not like you can just go to the hardware store and get a replacement one of these hubs.

The author is talking specifically about AWS. The odds that there is a mistake decommissioning the disk that leaves the data intact, times that somebody salvaged it from a landfill, times that they care about your data is basically zero. Which means a logical person should worry about everything else.
They confirmed the existence of a conspiracy with the Warren Report, and the endorsement of the idea that there was a single-shooter, explained by the so-called magic bullet. I still can't wrap my head around the fact that The Most Serious People in the government signed their names to something that any 12 year old who's shot a .22 caliber rifle would know is utter, complete, and irredeemable nonsense. All the rest is window dressing. That's all you need. And, after sealing the deal, there's only one organization which could have been responsible, by sheer power (to get SCOTUS and POTUS to go along with it), and motivation (standard MIC motivation of endless war in SE Asia).

A big reason these jet accounts were popular is people enjoyed calling attention to how wasteful many of the flights were, which I can’t imagine Elon was unaware of.
Maybe, but I think enough of the 'cool kids' are exiting now and the tide is turning, but not there yet. I've got nothing but my own feelings here to go on, but the 'witch-hunting' of blocking mastodon addresses, shadowbanning, and other petty things makes it feel like you're a 'rebel' to get away from Elon. 'Rebel' stuff is what 'cool kids' do, and so when you leave after you've been 'witch-hunted', that means you're 'cool.' So, as the 'cool' people go, others are going to want to follow them.
The stock market was designed to be profitable for shareholders through dividends, not stock price increases. Today, everyone focuses on stock prices instead of dividends.
Trump could have released the files as legally required, but he folded to the demands of (then) CIA chief Mike Pompeo and withheld thousands of documents (which allowed the Biden administration to continue to withhold thousands more, most of which we will most likely never see barring the collapse of the US government and/or the abolition of the CIA).
Yes, if (1) you had confidence Biden was on the plane at the time, and (2) if you posted it in order to cause physical harm.

Most doxxing that people worry about isn't just "oh look, biden is coming to town! cool!". It's more like "Supreme Court justice lives here with family. Go outside their house and start 'threatening' them now", followed by some sort of fake "no violence" post to CYA.
Localstorage not getting cleared by window.localStorage.clear() JavaScript?
Initial code is here:
https://www.makeuseof.com/localstorage-javascript/

It's the project that I'm trying to understand. It's the javascript that I'm concerned.

I tweaked the Javascript code to this:

var count = 0;
function increaseCounter() {

count += 1;
window.localStorage.setItem("count", count);
document.getElementById("score").innerHTML = count;
}
function decreaseCounter() {
count -= 1;
window.localStorage.setItem("count", count);
document.getElementById("score").innerHTML = count;
}
function clearCounter() {
window.localStorage.clear();
document.getElementById("score").innerHTML = "";
}

This is what I've tweaked

https://imgur.com/a/iKpHm0N

I don't get the need for the commented line in this case. Why're we using it? I by now of course know it's needed. But can't understand why.

I'm facing a problem

1) I increase count to 13.

2) I clear localstorage.

3) I click decrease score. Now, score starts to decrease from 12. So, storage isn't being cleared right?

Why's it like that?

Dry run in the above code seems fine.

1) Initial count=0

2) Click increase count button

3) count=1

4) Again click increase count button

5) count=2

6) Now I clear Counter, count should be 0.

7) I click decrease counter

8) count=-1

and so on.

What am I missing here?
The key is to brush all the dust off, then wipe only for oils.

You can use the edges of a lens cloth to brush first. Grip it in the middle so all the edges bunch together to form a sort of brush. Or a dedicated product that separates the two steps: this is the best glasses cleaner I’ve ever used:

Yeah, I think it is important to remember that he tried to back out of the transaction. He might be trying to form a plan (like the 'everything' app angle), but if he had something good, he would have had to been forced.

Consider the prospect that those were just populist campaign lies. For gosh sakes "I'm going to release the JFK secrets" is the most tabloidy, QAnon thing one could say. I mean, it's perfect in terms of appeal to his core demo, but why on earth would he want to actually follow through? What would be the point? He can just pretend he didn't say it, and make up some other thing for the next election cycle.
The same state they are installing this power-plant has a large amount of untapped Uranium [1][2]. Most of the needed mining equipment is already in Kemmerer currently used for coal.

I'm a heavy git user, but I've never used anything else except Sublime Merge.

Because of that, I am also comfortable now with the CLI: Sublime Merge uses git terminology and made me understand a lot of details about git that I can transfer to the CLI. Things like using stash, cherry picking, tagging or rebasing are all very easily doable in Sublime Merge and if you choose to use one of those features, you automatically get familar with the CLI commands you'd need to use. Brilliant.

I'm not familiar with the whole feature set of the CLI, but I'm not missing much during day-to-day work in Sublime Merge.

PS: Clearly when it comes to more specific issues to fix, there is still the option to use the CLI for that.

For a day, for something that was nominally outside their TOS, which lead to strong internal tensions and in the end also was a complete nothingburger that didn’t matter at all.

This, to me, clearly seems to be a small mistake with no material negative impact on the world. Shit happens.

Elon is consistently and repeatedly making far worse mistakes.
Seaweed mostly floats. Dead seaweed gets degraded by bacteria (just like everything else) and the carbon returns to the atmosphere.
Rather I think they should release a metal only version. I don't trust plastic to live a long and prosperous life in outside conditions, those are not where plastic shines.

As for 3D printing, I guess ABS could work (PLA can melt or become soft in the sun), but I can't imagine a hobbist grade printer producing a part that is comparably strong. The option would still be nice, though. Maybe you just need a prop for the theater, where weather is a non-issue, and being able to replace parts quickly is more important than longevity.

Indeed, but the convex hull approach also works for multiple sets of points, in any order.

As for [2], in the article the data is separated into 16 polygons, so the interior lines are actually shared between polygons. It's still possible to union the polygons, but it takes more time than calculating the convex hull.
