There have been some military tribunals. But it is essentially impossible to conduct a civilian criminal trial of alleged illegal combatants and terrorists captured under battlefield conditions in a manner consistent with US federal court procedures. The circumstances at the time the prisoners were captured made it impossible to maintain proper chains of evidence and key witnesses are unavailable. And who could even serve as jury members?
> In such a scenario, maybe it would be a good idea to keep a backup of all your Kindle titles on your PC or a compatible storage medium while Amazon is still hanging on with the AZW format.

No maybe here. If they block the export to USB method, then your “owned” content is locked into kindle readers permanently.

The time to backup your library into Calibre is now, before they lock you out of your content. After you’re locked out is too late.
1. I don’t know what their salary is but I think it’s like a dollar.

2. They talked through their decision making process in hiring at the rate Stripe did, then what changed that made them do layoffs. They were very direct that this was their choices and they owned them.

I don’t need them to weirdly punish themselves. They made a bet. They were wrong about the future. That’s fine.

I got 14 weeks which is a really long time.

As someone without a lot of math background, the most confusing part of this is k. Is k a number, like 7.45 or whatever? Or something else? Everything else is just normal mathy stuff.
Modeling Mindsets: The Many Cultures of Learning from Data
You shake your fists at the cloud… and wait your turn.
This is so cool! This game is one of my favorite games of all time. I bought the Xbox version when it first came out back in 2002. I remember the sticker advertising 9/10 in realism, haha.

My friends and I mostly played against each other using split-screen mode. In fact, a childhood friend and I never stopped playing the game. My good old Xbox is still connected to the TV at my parents house. Whenever I am visiting my hometown, usually twice a year, my friend and I still play through all the stages at least once to see who wins the most. The playthrough usually takes between 2 and 3 hours.

The game is still as exciting and nerve wracking as it was back in 2002. Really cool seeing this game getting the love and attention it deserves!
EVs make substantially less of that, due to regenerative braking.

Despite the provocative headline, it's not a bad rule of thumb.

But at least in the US, pretty much any new EV you can buy has a rated range of 200 miles or more. More than 100 miles of commuting per day is a lot! Also, workplace charging is becoming more of a thing, and would effectively double your range without any additional inconvenience.

Ironically, the inefficiency of ICEV engines is what makes them less variable in their range. First, you get heating for free because the engine produces an abundance of excess heat. Second, since the engines are at best 30% efficient, the effect of things like drag and grade are far less noticeable in terms of fuel consumption.
The standard that USG holds others to is not complex- it’s “might makes right”.

Which is, at a fundamental level, correct - every law can be broken but the laws of physics. But nobody forces you to use your power to achieve immoral goals, so while you need power, you are still free to decide how to use it.

That’s not to say USG is morally in the wrong, all successful states operate along this principle.

That is wrong, success does not imply morality.

But we started at hypocrisy and if your premise is might make right but you deny other countries this premise, then you are hypocritical. North Korea building nuclear weapons is just them following this premise, so instead of saying North Korea is bad, they should say we understand, they just want some of this might makes right, too. You could still oppose them, because it is in conflict with your might, but then you would at least no longer be hypocritical. And I fully understand why they don't do it, they have a much better image if they maintain the we are good, they are bad narrative, but this exactly what makes them hypocritical, hypocritical in what they do and say, not necessarily in what they actually belief.
Pick one and use it everywhere. If it's commonly used by others, try adding a zero, if that doesn't work, pick a number of significance that's not your year of birth or your postal code and add that instead. Maybe not your area code either, but maybe.

My experience with EVs (Teslas):

EVERYDAY CITY DRIVING - I drive whenever I need or want, without ever worrying about range. If I notice the expected range has dipped below ~60 miles, give or take, I plug it in at home at the end of my day. I'm delighted that I never have to go to a gas station, which reeks of all that smelly/poisonous/explosive stuff.

LONG TRIPS - I charge to 100% the night before, get on the road, and stop to charge only if/when the software tells me I should. The longest trip I've taken is ~325 miles, and it requires only one 15-20 minute stop to get 150+ miles of range at a supercharger (I grab a snack and go to the bathroom). Whenever possible, I try to stay in/go to places with destination charging, so I can plug the EV and find it fully charged by next morning.
I find it hard to believe that the Linux codebase being auditable makes Linux more secure by default than MacOS, iOS, and Windows. I doubt it is humanly feasible to fully read and grok the several million LOC running within Linux.
I would, however, trust a default MacOS/iOS/Windows system over a default Linux system. The Linux community has a track record of being hostile to the security community - for their own good reasons. Whereas Apple and Microsoft pay teams to secure their OS by default.

If you install something like grsecurity or use SELinux policies, I could buy the argument. I have yet to see these used in production though.

Also seL4 is not mathematically proven to be secure, it is formally verified which means it does what it says it does. Part of that spec may include exploitable code
I think this paper really cuts to the heart of the distinction Leo Breiman was exploring in his classic Statistical Modeling: The Two Cultures [0]. The idea here is that real distinction is not essentially in terms of assumptions or philosophy, but in terms of goals. The boundaries are more fuzzy when it comes to the methods themselves, and there are always tradeoffs between building a model to predict or building a model to try to understand the underlying phenomena.

Not to worry, HBO Max has replaced all that with “Velma.”
> artists had their art trained on without their permission and violating the copyright

Okay, I'll bite. Since when does copyright require permission to learn from the copyrighted material? I don't need your permission for that, and neither should an AI.

Or alternately, assuming you reject the "human-AI analogy": since when do I need permission to collect statistical information about copyrighted material? Should Disney be able to sue me for telling you how much screen time Jafar had in Disney's Aladdin, or what percentage of pixels in the first 5 minutes were a shade of blue?
So then, it isn't free. You just want someone else to pay for it.
this is a really nice note and solution of the problem. What is the difference from your competitor https://marker.io/?
It doesn't matter if the 80/90% charging is hidden in the UI or not. The EPA uses a 100% -> 0% range, and all vendors use this range in their marketing material.Of course they do, because people compare product sheets when choosing.

The actual range you will use day-to-day is way less. That's what I wanted to point out.
> We’ll never have public transport because

Wait, we…do…have public transport. Effective and useful public transport. In NYC 60% of people commute with it. Boston, DC, SF, Chicago, Philadelphia… You might have a specific gripe because it doesn’t take you exactly where you want to go with exactly the comfort you think you need, but these places have public transit that is good enough for hundreds of thousands or even millions to use every day
I've been on the fence regarding my next ereading move for a while now. Amazon has been continuing its Apple-ification of the Kindle ecosystem by shutting down systems, APIs, and features that made it open and accessible. I am sure most people won't care, and the current state will continue to appeal to a certain kind of mindset that is only interested in the consumption aspect (or worse, the shilling for such ecosystems).

Not that the rest of the industry is a great place at the moment. All major ebook sources are DRMd and locked, and that includes libraries, which have traditionally been associated with public spaces and openness.

I have heard that Kobos are becoming a more viable alternative as a reading device, and that they are a little more open. It works with Calibre and Calibre-Web. I will now be researching a Kobo device for this year, and although I am 'voting with my wallet', I don't think it will make much of a difference being a single drop among millions going the other way.
Shit like this is why I turned on airplane mode immediately after setup 3 years ago and never turned it off.

It’s a ebook reader. I load files on through calibre and read them. Any update or access to the internet is exceedingly unlikely to be to my benefit.

Zero issues so far.
I’ve been running KDE 4 and 5 on a variety of different hardware since the day KDE 4 reached v4.0. Granted the first few releases of 4 were a little bumpy (as had been thoroughly discussed on the internet at the time) but it’s been super stable for me ever since.

Is it possible your issues are down to your preferred distro packing KDE badly? The few times I’ve tried Kubuntu (for example) KDE has felt laggy. On Slackware, OpenSuse and Arch it flys though. This was true in the 3.x days too.

I’d also be interest to know what WM / DE is your usual daily driver and comparison here. Does it do compositing? If not, I wonder if the issue is graphics hardware and running KDE with software rendering would work better (though if you’re going to do that then you’re probably better off with an older DE or WM).

As an aside, I’ve been running KDE since the 1.0 and I my personal opinion KDE is the best now it has ever been.
> why do VCs love it so much?

They love it because it's the ultimate grift.

> No tangible product that delivers any actual value (insofar as actually doing anything about pollution) ever has to be delivered. You're setting yourself up to, at the absolute best, be a middleman platform that sucks out value from actually productive companies.

> You're immunizing yourself and your other horrible businesses by playacting at being a responsible global citizen and can rip any critics as being on the side of climate change.

This refers to Kindle Unlimited, a library of books for which you rent access (via a subscription).

They're not talking about books you 'bought' individually.
Scaling their Amperage is expensive.
Sounds good, as long as we can apply the same logic to insurrectionists.
My point is more that distributions don’t have to update everything in a release - they can focus their energy on certain new things rather than everything.
That doesn’t even factor in that you have to stop at a charger that’s not always at the end of your range. You stop where the chargers are.
I lolled at "impossible to break the DRM." Of course practically, they could make it very difficult, I'm not denying that. However, it's kind of funny to have DRM on something that can be copied with screenshots. If we ever get to the hilariously desperate level of HDCP for ebooks, you could still use a camera pointed at a screen and decent OCR to get something reasonable.

It's even dumber of course, because many people, when faced with the issue that they can no longer get a DRM free copy of something they bought, have a perfectly reasonable alternative that is free and provides DRM free copies of nearly anything. I guess it must be really important to stomp out the casual copying, but I find it hard to believe that people who are just casually copying would bother to do what was necessary already. Seems to me like this is probably something that mostly power users would've done.

AFAIK in the python 2 era it was the de-facto standard (just swap "python -m venv" with "virtualenv"). All these new tools have just made it more complicated and it's not clear to me what they gain, seems to me like they've simply succeeded in convincing people it's complicated by obscuring what's actually going on.
IME Wine is just not compatible enough to be seamless. It usually requires tweaks for all but the simplest of apps. And for many classes of apps it may be an impossibly awkward fit, like utility apps for hardware or interoperability.

Wine is also chasing a moving target while trying to reside on several evolving platforms.
> My last employer one day had virtually every system fail in the world at the same time due to a hidden dependency on some routing in a single data center; it took 8 hours to restart all the systems since that had not happened before. It was a fun slack to follow.

I think every company eventually has at least once of these. It is usually a wake up call to the company that what used to work when they had N number of users no longer scales with 10x the traffic…

(It also usually has a lot of “I told you so” moments too)
Nomz Meal Planner – skip the life story
The last digit of pi is e.
Even rational numbers which have repeating digits at the end are not O(1) because in order to calculate the n-th digit you need to calculate n modulo k where k is the length until the number repeats its digits, which needs to read the entire input number n (thus runs in O(log(n)).
The only exception are rational numbers with k being a power of two.
Take 0.1010101010…, you can get the n-th digit by reading off the smallest digit of n and checking whether it is a 0 or a 1.

There are transcendental numbers where the n-th digit can be computed in O(log n) like Champerowne constant though.
I was actually jaw-dropped at how terrible the first episode was.

HBO is normally known for high-quality content (even if I don't like it, it's not for me).
Velma, I believe, is a holdover from the previous regime. The current one is more likely to replace it with some sort of trashy reality TV.
This is just a cheap excuse. If they are guilty, any other jail in the country would work perfectly

If they are found innocent in a trial, they should be at their home with a compensation. If this is not possible they could be offered the citizenship as a way to repair the injustice after a careful examination of each case. One case at a time

My bet would be that that keeping opened guantanamo with a stream of taxes is making somebody, somewhere really rich

Given that there is an increase in people adding “Reddit” to their search terms, it would seem people aren’t getting the information they are looking for directly from Google searches.

I'm not sure I agree that 325mi is a long trip. I used to live in FL and you can drive more than 600mi and stay in the state. I now live in Texas where that number jumps to about 900mi. I'm sure in California it's at least 500mi.

EVs can be great if your commute is less than 30mi one way, but that doesn't make them good for road trips. At least in the US.
Impossible due to laws of physics surrounding diffusion based batteries. The vehicle would be so big to accommodate the heavier and heavier battery it would not be street legal.

Green hydrogen will be an eventual solution for those use cases.
If you really measure what is being run, it is more likely well-optimized CUDA GPU assembly kernels - or, at this point - might be already some exotic TPU-like accelerator assembly.

If you look outside of the USA lots of cities have good public transport systems that aren't plagued by poverty, crime, homelessness and mental illness. Just because Americans have decided to optimize their society to maximize misery of a minority for the benefit of an even smaller minority doesn't make it necessary.
I charge my Bolt EV to 100% every day. Most manufacturers provide some headroom so rated capacity is less than actual and you aren't hitting 100% SOC, just what the car reports.

What the OP also omits is that you gain range during fair weather. My Bolt EPA rating is 255 miles, but I've gotten 303 miles in the summer and as low as 191 in the winter.
Copyrighted training data is used in the training of a model, but doesn’t exist within the model weights in any real sense. Doesn’t seem different to if I hired an artist to make me a painting of a Disney character (I’m sure there exists copyrighted material in their training dataset).
I have a hard time shaking the feeling that this was unironically the pitch for the show.
Personally I've never run into this but -- a long queue would be fine, the car doesn't eat up much electricity idling. As for charger status, I mostly use the Electrify America app for finding a charging station (i get 2 years free with my car) and it's good for showing charger count and availability. So, if a charger was out of commission, it would just show 3/4 available.

Google maps will actually show similar availability of various other company stations.
There is no pot of gold by going after rich tax cheats. You get some headlines, but even if you seized all the wealth of Bill Gates and Elon Musk you’d fund the government (at best) for a few months.

You need to increase taxes broadly on the vast middle and lower classes to truly make a difference. It’s usually done in backhanded ways at this scale, like increasing the retirement age or the payroll tax. Direct income taxes are extremely unpopular for the people they impact, so broadly doing this is a non starter, it only works as a class warfare move (“no one under 400k income is impacted!”).

So the republicans are posturing that they will decrease funding but it won’t happen. If the IRS starts mass auditing it will be the lower and middle classes. The EITC is rife with fraud as is small business and eBay / Etsy hustlers. You audit someone and garnish their wages and they will be a lifelong hater of the IRS and all associated with them. It’s a long game.

It's interesting to note that PEP 582 (i.e. __pypackages__) mode used to be the PDM default -- and was sort of its flagship feature -- before being made opt-in with 2.0 release, the explanation being that the PEP had stalled, and that editor and IDE support for virtualenvs is much better (https://www.pythonbynight.com/blog/using-pdm-for-your-next-p...).

If you read through the discussion on the Python forum, one of the counterarguments to the PEP is that "If existing tools can already support this, why do we need a PEP for it?" But presumedly a PEP would help push the ecosystem to accommodate __pypackages__, and to solve the aforementioned problems (like broader editor and IDE support).

For what it's worth (as someone that builds Python tooling full-time): I'm generally a fan of moving to a node_modules-like model.

k is the parameter of the function as in the 'x'-axis so instead of saying y=f(x), the formula says y=f(k)
