A company with galaxy brained individuals and visionaries should be able to allow workers to have bathroom breaks, and not be threatened by a union.

The idea that you really believe this is an issue really shows how tasty the koolaid is.
Before global warming, was the Earth cooling down or heating up?
There really isn't a pre-med curriculum though biology, chemistry, biochemistry, etc. are common majors for an undergrad planning to apply to medical school. The shortages probably have more to do with residency slots and things like that then too small a top of funnel.

Law in the US is primarily a more or less required graduate degree for someone who actually wants to go into practicing law. For someone mostly wanting to learn a bit about IP law or constitutional law, there's a fair bit of material out there.
Thats such a cop out answer!

So according to you nobody is allowed to criticise anything because “shut up and build it yourself if you dont like it”?
Why do you position this as a binary option?

Google must have tens of thousands of people not directly working on ads. What exactly is so "risky" about this "subsidized" surplus working on risky bets?
Tesla fires employees in retaliation to union campaign
An excellent idea.
You cannot change the world alone, that’s an infantile Randian fantasy.

You need help from other people to succeed.

You don’t need to be an absolute despot to achieve even the most ambitious goal. Look at NASA and what they manage.
Fox news is reactionary against progressivism, leftism, etc... but the status quo in the US is pro military, pro oligarchy, pro gun, pro life, conservative, white and Christian. The "leftist" party in the US, the Democrats, can at best be described as center-right, there is no true left with any real political power.

The Democrats are pro-war, pro-capitalism, only nominally anti-gun, pander to the Christians as much as Republicans, and don't even side with labor anymore, as we saw with Biden crushing the railroad workers' strike, which was even supported by supposed progressive firebrand AOC.
Genuine philosophical question: if something is created to convincingly resemble humans, is characterizing it as human really an "anthropomorphization"?

Is it the status of the speaker (what you "know" about the subject) or the subject (how the subject outwardly behaves) that matters more?
By creating an environment of respect in employment terms. In a word, inertia. There is a reason employment contracts with greater than 40 hours a week are almost unheard of. Union blood was spilled to bring it down to that.

Data set of one, but the people I met claiming they don't trust the news, all take their news from youtube and random taxi drivers. This doesn't say anything about the news outlets, just about those people and their peculiar ways to "think for themselves".

There's more overlap between them than you realise, if you compare what counts as mainstream 'left' and 'right' in the USA vs Europe
They are powerful but not unaccountable. Every time a union strikes they use up some of their power, both with the general public and their members (who want to work!).

In the case of many public unions they are legislatively prevented from striking.

The idea that unions are the ones with significant leverage over their employers in this day and age is baffling. Just look at the railroad workers who got manhandled by a Democratic government!
There wasn't non-stop coverage: a couple of stories when it came out, and months later some separate coverage of a bill introduced in Congress to require official social media accounts to be archived which was given that nickname.
Ya, that keystroke monitoring software that the young lady talked about was rather cringe.
> But many of the structural pressures that sociologists have long identified shape commercial and state sourced news stories just don't apply to independent journalists

If Matt Taibi get Keshloggied it would not amaze me if his former colleagues bury the story or even spin it as a good thing. I don't predict he will actually get killed but ask yourself, would you be surprised if he was or does a part of you half expect it at this point?

He certainly won't be working a corporate gig anytime soon. Where will his income come from in the future? Nevermind what is he going to do to make ends meet, how will he afford going places to interview people and perform research? You can't realistically be a journalist sitting around at home in your underwear (unless you work for the NYT writing provoking social criticisms about something you just watched on Netflix).

And this is a very famous award winning guy with published books to his name from a time when people still used to read and pay for books. What is going to enable more people like this going forward? Seems like a pretty stressful life actually.
I already said this is not unique to Windows. Such that I don't see the point of the first question. On whether those have been source of attacks, I don't have numbers. I do remember getting hacked through Office back in the day. The whole "open this document" crap college students did to each other. To that end, I fully cede this could just be a false view from my side.

I'd expect most attacks are still of the "what is your password" variety. That along with a giant shared drive that everyone just dumps everything into.

And I don't mean this as an offensive against just Microsoft. They are/were somewhat unique in the success they had with embrace/extend. That said, the blame almost as surely rests on typical "growth at all costs" mental model that is modern business.
BS just at the edge of your comfort zone. As in, I don't know it yet, but know enough terminology to talk the talk and need no more than 30 days to walk the walk. If you've made a lifestyle out of learning, this shouldn't be a problem.
Why wouldn't I imagine first that there exists a mastermind capable of weaving order out of chaos using divine ability granted to them by the Excalibur Fairy after praying at the Stonehenge?

The story you're portraying doesn't need any kind of imagination, Hanlon's razor works perfectly well there and doesn't require any kind of special ability granted by smoking weed while doing nothing besides looking for conspiracies.
That is of course just your opinion, and reflects only one side of the issue. It would be a very biased journalism if only this and closely similar viewpoints were to be promoted.

Which is basically what the NYT said in their response:

"We received the letter from GLAAD and welcome their feedback. We understand how GLAAD sees our coverage. But at the same time, we recognize that GLAAD's advocacy mission and The Times's journalistic mission are different.

"As a news organization, we pursue independent reporting on transgender issues that include profiling groundbreakers in the movement, challenges and prejudice faced by the community, and how society is grappling with debates about care.

"The very news stories criticized by GLAAD in their letter reported deeply and empathetically on issues of care and well-being for trans teens and adults. Our journalism strives to explore, interrogate and reflect the experiences, ideas and debates in society - to help readers understand them. Our reporting did exactly that and we're proud of it."
Narcs did this and alas the FBI ended up turning the guy who wrote their software to turn on them all.. so hard for a criminal mastermind to also be a good programmer I think
I assumed the point for that was that people fall out with their families for a variety of good and bad reasons. Being pressured to stay on your families good side to retain health insurance seems barbaric in the same way forcing people to remain married, even when their partner is abusive is.

It sounds so bad, I can't quite believe its true, but maybe it only affects a small number of people catastrophically and the rest just struggle by.
> For that reason alone, Telegram‘s "secure chat" is anything but.

I didn't think that particular Telegram feature was affected in any way by any option, only that they needed to be started explicitly but were always secure no matter what.

So I immediately went looking through my settings and found an option that leaks tracking info by default, even in Secure Chats.

Signal, by default, routes all calls through their server. The option of using P2P connections for better latency and call quality is opt-in.

Telegram? See [1]. I found no evidence that Secure Chat calls are any different from regular calls.

It probably bodes a little poorly (either for the product, or for the product's applicability to this website) that almost every comment seems to be confused about what the product is or why anyone would ever use it. I've read the original post several times and I still don't understand myself. I read the main page and I can't tell if I'm meant to be in the target market or not. I clicked on Pricing and I don't understand what the free plan is (it doesn't give us access to "Links", which I thought was the product?)

The "Why do you charge for excess searches?" link in the pricing page opens the Forex question, not the excess searches question.

Pricing page provides pricing in GBP, EUR, USD, and AUD but does not use any kind of location data to localize the currency.

I used the "Resources" menu and I don't understand what "Spend management: Unlock incremental revenue" means
> I use a CO2 monitor in my living room and I adjust the crack in the window several times a day to keep it around 550 without wasting too much on heating. It's not even remotely common sense, you absolutely need a sensor.

It's more efficient to air out by opening the windows fully and creating a draft for a few minutes several times a day than to leave the window cracked when it's colder outside.
HEPA filter does not do much for VOC. VOCs, because they are gases, are about 1000 times smaller than what HEPA filters can capture. You need carbon-based filter to neutralize them.

I have a lot of love for Homebrew from many years of using it, but I don't think you'll ever find me using it in macOS or Linux again. I use Nix on both now and I'm convinced that it is the saner way of doing things.
I recently took the IPMA (International Project Management Assoociation) Level D exam. If focuses - and in my understanding, this is the key difference from other project management exams - not on project management itself, but rather on competencies a project manager should have. Naturally, these include compentencies more closely related to project management (aligning a project with the orgnizations goals, ...), but also more general competencies like communication, conflicht management, self-organization, etc. Some of the advice was surprisingly hands-on (e.g. when to tell jokes!).

Anyway, my suggestion is to have a look at the syllabus [1] and see if there are topics of interest to you. If yes, I'm not necessarily advocating to take the exam, but rather to read the study materials (they include suggestions for further reading as well).

Since some months, it's more a users' bad sec practice: Telegram offers on sale virtual numbers[1] with a crypto dumbery, you can buy a virtual number for 40-something $ and then log in with their wallet. Should be safer than having the SMS code rerouted but I can't say how much safer that way would be.

I agree! The problem is, in the PHP world i rely heavily upon Laravel Valet, and it supports only brew…
Why is it unreasonable? There are plenty of auto manufacturers in right to work states who do just that. Why shouldn't anyone be allowed to work for Tesla in Buffalo regardless if they want to be a part of a union or not?
Hopefully you are not saying that you plan to disable firewall once you all in on IPv6. This is pretty reckless and bad security practice. And even if your machines are secure _today_, who says there will not be insecure device tomorrow.

So UPnP (or its equivalent) will still be very relevant in IPv6 world. Probably even more as you no longer have stable internal addresses, the prefix comes from your ISP.
It works both ways usually. If you want to fire an employee you can not do it from one day to another without good reason.

There is also the possibility of an earlier contract end with the agreement of both parties.

What devs are you trying to hire?
City of Oakland Hit with Ransomware
I've definitely learned a lot about these problems from the viewpoint of art and graphic design. When using Pillow I convert to linear light with high dynamic range and work in that space.

One pet peeve of mine is algorithms for making thumbnails, most of the algorithms from the image processing book don't really apply as they are usually trying to interpolate between points based on a small neighborhood whereas if you are downscaling by a large factor (say 10) the obvious thing to do is sample the pixels in the input image that intersect with the pixel in the output image (100 in that case.)

That box averaging is a pretty expensive convolution so most libraries usually downscale images by powers of 2 and then interpolate from the closest such image which I think is not quite perfect and I think you could do better.
"Project Vacation"?
Who is this for other than travel agents? Very cool but I can't imagine too many use cases immediately.
Well, what is WhatsApps default then?
I think it depends on the application. It's very unlikely someone will MITM the connection between components on a set of circuit boards in a satellite (the use-case they designed this for)
In practice there is very little reason to not use data they legally can since AI models work better with more training data.
I don't think anyone can whatsapp chat. Somehow, whats app is the most reliable end-to-end encrypted messaging service today and many just don't know.
The default authentication method is 5-digit login code received via SMS. You can enable 2FA with password being the second method, but you have to know how to do it. Worse there are 2 things called "password" there: the "cloud password" which is the 2FA password and the "password code" (that's what it's called in Russian, maybe the English interface uses a better name) which is merely a pin code for locking the Telegram app on your device. So some less tech-savvy people after hearing they need to set up a password set the latter and falsely assume they are now safe.
There's another use case I'm sure we'll see: AI image generators for ads, trained to maximize click-through rates.
HQ's update should have been company-wide. Mistakes happen, and it'd show some humanity through humor.
> Signal might be safe, but I think it's a honeypot.

Telegram smells a lot more like a honeypot than Signal
It's not borning per se. But it's boring because it's old and well-known. The linked to version is from 2020 and I'm not even sure that was the original. I first read it quite a while ago and have seen it crop up several times since. This site is called Hacker NEWS. With the word NEWS implying er... "new" things.

It's also boring because the clickbait title [used on the linked to version] is misleading and suggests the article is about something else. ie. "hacks" [plural!] for Google Maps. When it is about nothing of the sort. It's an oft-repeated story about a bloke who once tricked Google Maps into thinking there was heavy traffic somewhere by wheeling a handcart full of phones, with Google Maps installed, down that street. It's about as much of a hack as me throwing my phone off a cliff to try and fool Strava into thinking I can fly.
"If you want to fire an employee you can not do it from one day to another without good reason."

This usually only applies for permanent employees, not freelancers.
Keep your head in the sand.

You cannot have politicians and media telling people day in and day out that people who don't look like you or believe like you are the enemy and not have people try and hurt their "enemy". You can't.
I think this analysis is great and I like it a lot, but it's not quite what I was going for. Here, the size of a cell works against an independent measurement of length like "one meter". But, at a much more fundamental level, I kind of meant why is a meter a meter? If everything in the universe doubled in length overnight, how would we know since our meter sticks would double, too, which admits two possibilities:

1) If lengths are absolutely fixed, why are they fixed at that scale? Why *didn't* things end up doubled (assuming an external absolute to measure against).

2) If they're *not* absolutely fixed, the "fundamental length" appears pretty fixed to us as humans because things kind of look the same day-to-day. Is there a variation we just don't perceive? Is the fixedness we see just us imposing part of our perception on the world?

It's sort of like this illustration of gauge fixing[1] -- just like "how do you know the cylinder is twisted?", you can ask "how do you know your fundamental lengths?"

Plus aren't a ton of local news stations owned by Sinclair? MBA Bean Counting 101 would suggest that if you owned 200 news channels across the country that the first thing you'd do is look for stories that are relevant across all (or multiple) channels then pay 1 person to write it once. Rather than paying 200 people to write the story 200 times.

You'd also likely want to implement standards around language use that would create a consistent product with broad appeal, limit an editor's ability to go off the rails and do something that would harm the brand image, and that limits legal liability.
I mean if a Roman general could…
The problem there is consolidated ownership of local television. Sinclair and Nexstar own the majority of TV stations in this country that aren't owned and operated (O&O) by the networks themselves. Actual local television ownership is dwindling, and those stations lose network affiliation, because the networks would rather work with large station groups to get more money in retransmission fees (as stations getting paid more money by operators means that the networks can demand more money from all affiliates).
Some people definitely have. Or have decided to limit themselves to one flight a year as a compromise. "Staycations" where people take vacations in their home town are a thing, and the pandemic has shown that most business travel is unneeded.
> I also keep a humidifier running full blast (silently) because otherwise it will get crazy dry on some days.

Heh, I usually keep the dehumidifier running, I don’t think I’ll ever need a humidifier. Currently, 80% RH (7g/m³) outside, with indoor levels all slightly above 60%.
My father told me he loved me and was proud of me and how i turned out and that he had no regrets (He doesn't really know my name anymore). I would do the same for my loved ones and tell them things are ok and to let me go. (I've also told them if i don't remember them, the wolves will take good care of me!) Looking a his lifestyle and considering this as an epidemic, lifestyle & inflammation seems to be big factors. Diabetes and Pre-Diabetes are also risk factors. If i was aware early enough i would start exercising more, adopt an anti-inflammatory diet, meditate and consider psychedelics https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32973482 and get my affairs in order as much as i could. So basically the test may help people shift gears harder and consider lifestyle changes and preparation.
My unit has both HEPA and carbon-based filters. The point is, my CO2 levels rise independently of any other pollutant and it's not reliably detectable by a human as far as I can tell.
interesting and if you told it your name/email it could also connect the dots and badmouth you to others or perhaps even purposefully spread false information about you or your business or put your business into a more negative light than it would ordinarilly do
Is the "let it crash" philosophy a part of this or will a panic bring down the whole process?
Kayak, for instance, now sells all flights through third parties, like ChatDeal. The internet abounds with tales of ChatDeal not actually purchasing the tickets, or canceling them at the last minute. Any issues go through these third-party sites, who do not care about customer service or getting you to your destination.

The idea of buying any ticket not directly from the airline terrifies me now.
Much rather deal with anonymized telemetry blowing up than tickets from whiney ass users.
It's worse. 2FA is optional and SMS code is the first (and default) auth method.
Neural nets operating on mel sprectograms (spectrograms shifted to bias frequencies that are of interest to humans) have remarkable ability for audio classification and synthesis. It stands to reason it would not be difficult to adapt methods towards nearly anything which can be mapped to an image in a similar way. I don’t think its particularly novel in concept and kind of surprised it isn’t significantly further along.

I think we are at the technology level to really make medicine significantly more affordable and available, at the cost of many high paying doctor’s jobs. Same can be said for lawyers. These are powerful groups that will not take being automated lightly.
As someone who worked too long at an office with non-existent ventilation and a fetish for long, closed door meetings, my motto became:

“Take a break. Go outside. Walk around the block. Never come back.”
> That's not a data protection problem, however. No data protection law forbids digitization of government services. It's a common excuse, though.

It's a super weird one as well. There's no extra special data protection rules for digital data vs. data on paper.

Are they admitting they violate privacy laws already? Or do they want to change the information flow while going paperless? If so, why, and why is it necessary to go digital at all?
Kinda hoping this passes just so Reddit is forced to take moderation into their own hands and remove the bunch of cranky internet janitors who ban people or delete posts for no reason.
> Is it justifiable to deprive those of us who contribute exceptional value of our right to negotiate?

I can't think of an explanation for this question that isn't grounded in fantasy.
No it's not.

CO2 levels build up higher than I want within half an hour so I'd have to be doing that all day long. And it would result in a periodically freezing apartment.

It's much more efficient for me to keep it open a crack.
