What are you talking about "lack of ECC?" The Pi4 has ECC.
Chaffing on steroids.

On the other hand, note that you'd also need some way of distinguishing ... wheat from chaff ... for your own ability to track your correspondence, transactions, records, etc.

Otherwise, that is an interesting idea, particularly in a world in which storage is cheap relative to the size of documents. We're rapidly approaching an era in which storage capacities sufficient to hold the entire Library of Congress collection of books (as text) on a residential PC or server will be highly viable.

The larger problem is probably that your copy of that data isn't particularly important in most cases, it's what lies on others servers that's been generated by you / snarfed from your devices / activities. And that's far harder to chaff.

Another issue would be that any generated content that raises / matches suspicions could, in a regime with poor civil liberties protections, simply become more ammunition used against you. The old Cardinal Richelieu "six lines" dictum, though in this case, not necessarily in your hand.

I once had a hotel charge me a $30 per night "urban fee" - literally it was called that- on top of the advertised nightly rate. It was for work travel so I just payed it. I emailed them (I know pointlessly) to tell them I was never coming back (it was a hotel i used to go to a lot) and they just ignored me. Imo it's criminal, and it also looks pathetic for the companies doing it.

I have a company, and if I charged made-up fees to my clients after quoting them a price, they'd tell me to get lost and I'd lose their business. You can always tell who has inappropriate market power
Agree to your points.

Performance benchmarks are not easy to execute. Each tool has nuances, and the testing environments must aim to provide a level playing field for all tools. We have tried our best to be transparent about the setup and configurations used in this performance benchmark.

I think you would need to test different solutions for your specific data and query patterns to understand better how different tools would fit.

But hopefully our results could give you pointers on where to poke

I'm really bullish on nostr: https://krisconstable.com/check-out-the-nostr-protocol/

If nothing else, know these two things:

1) It's a decentralized protocol, not a company or app -- there are man different clients that do completely different things on nostr, try them all and see which works best for you.

2) Unlike Twitter and Mastadon, the relay admins can not read your private DMs.

Why so much of the Dead Man's Skull ingredient and so little truly exotic, obscene, or otherwise heinous little scraps? Maybe a ground up nipple, testicle, sphincter, stomach lining, bellybutton, kneecap, pinky toe, tailbone, various assorted internal organs, or fresh-ish nose and shoulder cartridge would do the trick? Or for a very powerful remedy, derive a hybrid combo. These might make even more effective a witchey brew than the skull bone and moss grindings.

I think you are misunderstanding. The letters are always opened and checked for contraband. But they aren't read.

>>They should not have privacy to plan additional crimes with arbitrary people outside.

And how does this system prevent them from doing such a thing? The letters still won't be read by anyone - just digitized, in some mistaken belief that this will prevent contraband getting into prisons(which it won't - because letters aren't and never were the source of it - corrupt guards are). This is purely a scheme to give private corporations money - I literally don't understand why so many people here are defending it.

You're missing an important distinction: Cash is legal for all DEBTS. Nothing says the store can't refuse to take cash, as long as they also prevent you from establishing a debt. For example, a restaurant that doesn't want to take cash must force you to pay before you eat.

I've seen this four quadrant method frequently referenced, most recently I came across it in David Allen's book "Getting Things Done". I don't quite understand the logic behind delegating non-urgent and important work. Two points of confusion:

1) In business, how do I have the authority to delegate when responsibility is frequently defined by the role/organization or I'm at the bottom of the organization?

2) Delegating urgent not important tasks seems like an ineffective use of valuable resources and a recipe for a toxic working relationship. Rather, I would expect someone to delegate not urgent important work so that there is time to deal with the additional cost of handing off work to another person.

What am missing?
At least at smaller restaurants this is easier to take a stand against than with Airbnb. Unless it's a huge chain, it doesn't take many negative reviews on Google maps or whatever is the common local service for the owners to notice what behaviour is not ok.

I haven't encountered anything that egregious but in the last year or so, a number of local resaurants have started charing the CC fee back to you, and in some cases, way more than the CC fee is likely to be (i.e. 5% or 7%). It seem to be associated with some of the fancy new payment processors--evey place I go with an old fashioned CC machine doesn't do this, but the fancy touch screen one seem to have that feature and some of the local restaurants are abusing it. As I learn about them, I try to avoid the restaurants that do that.

I've taught most of my clients breathing exercises for the past 5-6 years. It's unnecessary to take it to the level of a formal pranayama practice to make fairly significant differences in physiological state, from which most everything else derives.

The "coherent breathing" work that popped up sometime in the last ~15 years is pretty interesting, too.

With such a huge load of new features in such a short lapse of time, I wonder about the quality of the code.

I quickly glanced at the GitHub repository and basically couldn't find any test for example.

It'd be fine for any other startup, but this is something hosting seriously sensitive data and I feel like the focus is not right.

Any considerations about security you can share?

That number can't be right. 98% of the earth doesn't have primary radar coverage, let alone secondary (transponder) coverage.

ATC radar is line of sight. At an altitude of 40,000 feet, you're beyond the radio horizon and lose coverage after about 380 miles - and that's the theoretical best case.

Oceanic air traffic control is primarily a non-radar environment, using procedural separation. Even over land, most of Canada (outside major cities and the airways between them) doesn't have radar coverage. There's a map showing the gaps here: http://ilanreich.com/Public_Pics/Alaska/Section%20One.htm

(The military does have over-the-horizon radar, but that's mostly used for missile defense. OTH radar isn't used for air traffic control.)
I mean I think my answer is the best anyone can do. It’s not as if there’s never packages competing with the standard library, and finding one you like and then always use is a one-time cost. There’s a ton of ways to find the answer to this question easily. It is of course true that you have to look.

I consider it more like the golden calf that people worshipped while Moses was away. The Quranic version is it was made of gold, it made a sound, and so people idolized it.

I think it's a good parable. It's something expensive and man made. Even though it's on average dumber than a typical human, people try to ascribe godliness to it. And so many judge whether it has achieved omniscience. For many of us, it's just a better tool, an IDE, but for some, it's an oracle or divination tool that they use to decide whether they should marry someone.

I think the term "artificial intelligence" makes it even more confusing.

It's probably correct, but now the problem just moved to accurately scoring each task on a variety of scales. What I find more and more is that it's very hard to see beyond the tasks and figure out side effects of finishing some task or feature because it quickly gets very complex and if you spend time on really thinking it all through to the point where you're certain about the right order, you probably could've knocked half of the tasks out already instead of studying their relationships and long-term effects.
In many cases, especially for flashy new restaurants in my state, the TIF fee exceeds other "taxes". Since these are solely for the benefit of the real estate developer and its tenants (including the restaurant), I would prefer that these were never split off from prices because that's misleading.
Any plane, in fact. Airliner or not.
Would you share some of your breathing lessons here?

I only ask because there are several other commenters on here offering breathing tips, and you sound like an expert on this.
This actually holds true. Email as a way to keep in touch is def not mainstream. Everyone uses Facebook, WhatsApp. Services that are much more streamlined and consumer oriented. And centralized… I think it demonstrates my point.

It's trying to make customers happy.

I needed a scheduling solution that let me tweak a bunch of knobs regarding when I was available, for what, how much that cost, how that payment could be processed, my team, different locations, how full to book me, which notifications to send to whom and when, which data I needed to gather for each type of appointment or package of appointments, and, and, and, and before you know it I've given the developer 5 years worth of feature requests, and I'm just one of their customers.

Question: Would there be any benefit, not just to increasing the number of hash iterations but also changing it to a random non-round number?

Never understood why people use abstractions on SQL. SQL in itself is plain, simple, easy to use. No need for any high level abstractions.

Practically all the nuclear propulsion designs are ideally launched from space. You want to get the "fallout" as far from the Allen Belts as you can from what I remember reading of General Atomics's Project Orion.

Since nuclear rockets are far more practical for all major interplanetary travel, that's why a moon base or captured asteroid habitat will be the first real step to a "space civ".

Of course I'm nutso enough to think that SpaceX should launch antimatter collection arrays in orbit to grab it from the solar wind, right now.

Getting to Mars otherwise is really just a big marketing exercise.

It now kinda seems unrealistic that most sci fi interstellar empires have lots of planet based settlements (well, the ones that have to deal with gravity). Gravity wells are a huge PITA once a reasonably closed-loop space civ gets moving. A nice asteroid belt seems a lot more valuable or a planet with a crapton of low-gravity moons, than a planet with 1G gravity well you have to spend millions to escape.

On the moon, you could probably setup maglev launch or assisted launch with just solar panels.

Alas, our delicate earth-adapted physiology.

I’m skeptical of you because you do continue to push your point that the police are not corrupt, and that you don’t any provide evidence to prove your aforementioned point. Additionally, because a discussion isn’t completely related to the article doesn’t mean it can’t be discussed here so it doesn’t make sense to try to shut it down because you both disagree with it and disagree that it belongs here.
If ChatGPT isn't designed to give playful responses, and yet it frequently does produces playful responses (do you think a serious, fact oriented system would happily write an explanation of the A-star algorithm in iambic pentameter?), I'm even more impressed. If the playfulness is an emergent property of the system, I don't think that argues against the idea that it's a product of some kind of intelligence.

But in fact I suspect that ChatGPT was designed to be playful, as well as helpful. I think the human based reinforcement phase they put it through to tune the chat output was probably used to encourage some of these creative generative responses where it takes a ludicrous idea and proceeds to execute on it.

I think even this number is high. 80-90% sounds about right for the mainland US and Europe, but definitely isn't true elsewhere. Canada probably has ~50% radar coverage, and oceans have essentially 0% once you're beyond line of sight from from the coast.

(And this is if you're a jet flying at high altitude. If you're down where smaller aircraft fly, I can point to areas on the US west coast that don't have radar or radio coverage. Heck, there's parts of the mainland US that don't even have NEXRAD weather radar coverage.)

You don't really have to "self-host" (and in fact, I think self-hosting is a recipe for pain and suffering). What I've done personally is:

1. Buy your own domain (ideally not via Google Domains; I use Amazon, but there's plenty of solid registrars).

2. Set up a Google Apps account (I think I pay something in the neighborhood of $5-10/mo, which seems not crazy given how email is the linchpin of every other service)

3. Configure DNS for your domain to point to Google Apps.

4. Pick a backup tool and back up your Google Apps to somewhere. I've got a Synology NAS, so I use its built in tool to back up Gmail/Drive/etc, but there's any number of tools depending on where you want to store the data / how you want to handle retention / etc.

Now, if Google closes your account, you have backups of your data, and you pick a new mail provider and update your DNS records.

I was part of genetics boom when sequencing dropped in price, and I thought that situations just like this were what the market was poised to capitalize on, sequencers in every doctors office or at least cheap enough and prolific enough that sequencing a micriobiome would give doctors data to work with.

The sad reality is that many doctors are operating with what data scientists would reject as missing or bad data, the solution (ignoring the money side) is to get them into a pattern of collecting more data and being better at analysing it.

Each microbiome is different, and I think until sequenced and analyzed, it is simply guessing on the part of patient and doctor.
