He specifically said that about code in Emacs itself, and only insane people would disagree with that position when you can just change the original function.

IMO, and I suspect RMS would agree: defadvice shouldn't be used in code you distribute to others, because multiple pieces of advice can conflict, and the code defining the advice doesn't control which advice is loaded first. It is still a valuable tool for usage in personal configuration and for prototyping.
> are you really sure long term natural Bitcoin downward volatility is actually high?

It appears to be three times more volatile than NASDAQ in the short term, and twice as volatile in the long term. So, yes.

This has got to be a big component of it. There was a thread I watched on reddit that showed a kid jumping on the trays on an airplane, it did look bad but it was like a 15 second video. Literally anyone's kid might do this if god forbid you doze off for 5 minutes on the airplane where it is more or less impossible for the kid to escape.

There were thousands of comments almost all stating how awful the parents are for not maintaining constant concentration every single second for their kids entire lives such that they weren't able to stop a kid from god forbid jumping up and down for a few seconds while mom fell asleep. It made it clear to me especially the common 20 something feels a deep sense of power to control other's children while simultaneously having no practical understanding of the situation.
Been running this same setup for eight or nine years now, extremely pleased with it
This is like Dreambooth, but takes 5s instead of 5 minutes, by doing fewer larger fine-tuning steps.
As a consumer, this seems great for me.
The Coast Guard is part of the Department of Homeland Security, and CGIS agents can liaise with DHS on federal investigations. Probably a matter of convenience. Hey, Agent Joe, you’re up there near Cohasset, they need an extra pair of hands. Just a guess in the latter part ofc.

I mean, the comment is pretty straightforward, I don’t really see the need to come to this person’s defense. I agree that the iOS policy is dumb, but deliberately misinterpreting this person to make them correct is silly.
I really do appreciate this reply. It's pleasant to get a response from someone who's not nearly as jaded about this as I am that helps me reconsider and be less hyperbolic about things.

I was certainly being a bit overly cynical with a lot of what you're replying to, but I think a lot of that is driven by not earnestly believing that most companies are as earnest and caring about this as you seem to be. I can write an earnest cover letter about what I love about computing and my job, and what I want to do, and how a new role I'm applying to excites me and speaks to what I find interesting about this sort of job. I've even done that 3-4 times in the last year. And you know what?

I got literally not even a rejection letter from any of the places I put at least half an hour of me spilling my soul and passions into a cover letter for.

I literally think I've had a worse track record of getting a first round interview when I provided a cover letter than when I didn't. Small sample size for sure, but I'm actually unsure I've ever had a cover letter even get acknowledged, let alone get me in the door.

To turn your analogy, most companies and job postings feel like them saying "I'll buy you nice dinners, take care of your kids, and cover your expenses as long as you have sex with me." And honestly, at some point, I've been mostly beaten down to the point where that sounds good, because the companies that promise me they care about me and want to learn about my interests and go on a nice date with me don't even acknowledge my existence when I send them a love letter.

I've been curious about this recently, and have been asking around my network, and I actually don't think anyone I've worked with who's done interviewing for their company has ever even seen a cover letter as part of an interview packet. You seem to work somewhere that cares and would actually read and process them, but if so, you really need to make it clear that it actually matters, because at this point, I've had too many companies even require a cover letter and then seemingly care less about treating me like a person than I treated their job as something I could be passionate about.
There are already older models who facetune to look like teens. I've heard of at least two cases that were made public, I'm sure there are more that stay under the radar. It's definitely strange and not healthy for society.
Twilio's API has this functionality. I've mostly used it to identify scammers using VOIP or phone numbers I don't recognize - it usually returns nothing but network info, but sometimes it'll return the account owner's name if it's a cellular (and landline maybe)

That’s what my boss said about me on my last performance review.
The watched kettle never boils. Kids are impatiently waiting to grow up, to get through their teens so they can drive cars, earn money, live freely. The average school day is a long day at the office. I recall sitting in class day-dreaming about not sitting in class.
Some of these people were really good actors then? There were definitely some videos with exaggerated responses but there were several that I have a hard time believing weren’t authentic.
Agreed.

Adding on to what you said - I think it also depends on where you start. If you inherit wealth and/or good opportunities then why risk it, but if not then it would make a lot of sense. After all, lots of people voluntarily enlist in the military, and one factor is not having (m)any other options. (This isn't the only reason, nor is it a factor for everyone)

Plus, dueling / fighting is a skill. If you need people who are good at fighting in order to get legislation passed then the rich will hire skilled fighters to go be legislator-duelists for them.

Oh that one. IDK how far the plans extend, but I've heard the Lackawana cutoff is going to be revived. The ROW and bridges are still there. But you're right, there's a whole lot of things we had which were foolishly demolished, and New York state and city are no strangers to that fact. A solid half of transit proposals I see consist of reactivating some line that was already built 100 years ago and has laid dormant for 50.
I hate to say it but yah. There is no institutional backbone in Congress anywhere to do course correct. If memory serves corp taxes are down about 20pct from Reagan while my W2 taxes are high. I've been in the apple building in Cupertino. Nobody really thinks it's Irish for tax purposes.

I was employee #2 at Airship (was Urban Airship) which was started by laid off tech workers after the 2008 housing crash. Oregon, where we were all located, had an unemployment incentive for starting a new business… and it worked! Airship has employed hundreds of Oregonians (and others) over more than a decade.

Layoffs suck. I’ve been laid off before and wouldn’t wish it on anybody, but with the right supports it can be an opportunity. I hope we see some exciting new ideas come from folks who have been given a chance to go their own way.

Productivity is a function of technology, labor, and natural resources.

If technology improves by 10%, we can still see a 10% increase in wealth even if labor and natural resources remain steady.

If technology improves by a whole lot, we could theoretically even see an increase in wealth amidst decreasing labor and natural resources.

New Vehicle Safety Report Reveals Teslas Using Autopilot Are 10x Safer

I think the research still suggests that while alchohol is pretty good at killing most things, cocktails don't sit long enough for the alcohol to do much and you'd need to be 100+ proof.

https://www.tesla.com/VehicleSafetyReport

> Update (January 2023):
We are proud of Autopilot’s performance and its impact on reducing traffic collisions. The benefit and promise of Autopilot is clear from the Vehicle Safety Report data that we have been sharing for 4 years. As part of Tesla’s commitment to continuous improvement, recent analysis led us to identify and implement upgrades to our data reporting. Specifically, we discovered reports of certain events where no airbag or other active restraint deployed, single events that were counted more than once, and reports of invalid or duplicated mileage records. Including these events is inconsistent with our methodology for the Vehicle Safety Report and they will be excluded going forward. These upgrades in data analysis reinforce the positive impact that Autopilot has on vehicle safety. To ensure the accuracy of our reporting, we updated all collision rates historically to account for these upgrades, including the baseline collision rates for the United States based on currently available NHTSA and FHWA data. (Note that for purposes of the baseline collision rates in the United States, an automobile crash is one that involves at least one passenger vehicle, light truck, SUV or van that is 10,000 pounds or less, as classified by available federal data.) The end result is that, when Autopilot is active, the collision rates are even lower than we previously reported.
Sure, there are different levels of explaining "impact" and the reporter isn't responsible for being the final authority. They should have some idea though as to what the bad thing you can do with the bug is. (However, cvss scores are basically garbage)

The peer-review system is antiquated, developed before the internet and powerpoint presentations. Anything that facilitates interaction between authors and other researchers will be a vast improvement.

Peer-review doesn't catch fraud and is sometimes a political process. I've found the best corrections I've gotten is after posting pre-prints to online forums. I suggest that commenting on pre-prints is better than peer-review pre-publication. I imagine a ranking system could highlight comments from trusted reviewers. Studies that no one wants to review were probably never going to be read anyway, and so there was never any reason to review these studies anyway.

From high school through nearly all of my adult life I’ve been obese. For the last several years my weight has barely fluctuated, but it’s fluctuated between caution about being underweight and a few pounds “overweight” that barely even count. I’ve eaten almost exactly the same the whole time. The two factors which changed:

- I take ADHD meds, amphetamines, which are appetite suppressants. They haven’t made me eat less, and they’ve reinforced “bad” eating habits I used to have before I lost so much weight, specifically reinforcing my tendency to eat one, large, meal per day.

- I’m much more active than I used to be, because I got a pup who needs the activity and with whom I like to be active.

My caloric intake is about the same as it’s always been. Once I actually paid attention to it I realized it wasn’t even very high. I very seldom reach the recommended 2000 calories diet metrics are based on. I still don’t understand how eating that way made me obese, but I have to assume now I was just absurdly sedentary.

I got lectures like this about caloric intake for years and always found it interesting but confusing! How was I so fat and never eaten much?

I’m not saying this applies to anyone else, but it’s bothered me for decades that I’d been told calories in -> obesity meanwhile my own caloric intake had next to nothing to do with my body mass.

I played HoTs for several years up to a bit after Blizzard stopped developing the game (2-3 years ago?). The match maker in that game has always been a hot mess. It was never fun to be given a team of F class heroes while the enemy team had the meta group composition. Even better where the matches were your team would be decent if not for the map you were given. At times it felt like the match maker was intentionally just screwing with you. After blizzard stopped working on the game the player pool shrunk noticeably which amplified the terrible MM problems. I ended up rage quitting the game after playing on average 4 games a night and losing every single one of them for a week straight. Most of the matches were lost at the loading screen due to a variety of reasons. No sense playing a game that just makes you angry.

When playing quickmatch there were certain heroes that you could play and force a win (assuming the map didn't fck you over). For me those heroes were murky and the lost vikings (and usually abathur). My TLV winrate was over 70% because I could just soak and PVE my team to a 2+ level advantage fairly quickly. Murky was a similar experience but I could also assassinate enemy heroes fairly easily.

Sadly those were the only heroes I played that consistently made me feel like I was effecting the outcome of the match. Getting +30 kills as valeera with no deaths and still losing cause you can't get your team to do any objectives is just infuriating..

The YouTube rules are completely insane. Whoever makes them has totally lost their mind.

For instance, YouTube recently implemented a policy such that they now demonitize videos that contain profanity in the first 15 seconds - AND THIS APPLIES RETROACTIVELY TO VIDEOS RELEASED BEFORE THE POLICY WAS CHANGED.

Between that, the downvote count being removed, random demonetizations, mysterious channel shadowbans, the DMCA travesty, YouTube Rewind, and the "misinformation" rules, YouTube is a complete trash fire.

Nobody sane believes that the YouTube rules are reasonable.
Lovely!

In Belgium, we had Dutroux a serial rapist and child kidnapper that traumatised the country ~30 years ago.
As a kid I remember living like you describe in Norway. Not anymore. Parents are still to this day worried letting their kids go outside.

Fast forward to spring 2020.
The country is locked down. The weather is surprisingly excellent.
It took me a lot of effort to leave my 8y old girl go play with her friend to the small wood nearby.
Initially I even asked her to go with the dog.
I could see the disapprovals of other parents I was talking to about this. But little by little other kids joined.

They had a blast. No school for months. Living in the sunny woods all day, just coming back to eat and sleep.

She's 10 now and as you can imagine a very independent girl.

It gets better.... they do the drill but then don't even practice the most important and highest priority of the 3 option which is to RUN.

It turns out, running is too inconvenient for the teachers to deal with, because it's a lot of work to round up kids that have run away (and probably not the safest thing to begin with anyway for just a drill). So instead they drill for them to hide, which should be done only if you can't run away. The thing is, watching both the Uvalde and Christchurch massacre videos, it will become crystal clear to you that hiding is the literal worst of the three options as you become a sitting duck.

So they have the drill, then drill into the kids to be sitting ducks because it is more convenient for the administrator than dealing with kids that are running. The advice I have for my kid is to not give a damn what the teacher says, to grab the nearest long durable object and smash out the windows and run away.

This seems one of those pure-academic papers which have no practical applications whatsoever.

First of all we have MIL-STD-1553, which is a broadcast bus. Those are inherently unprotected, as any device can jam the bus at any moment. OK, the attacker wants to override the device output instead. But this immediately suggests most efficient fix for any takeover process: switch to some other technology which is not broadcast. This will fix takeover problem, and jamming problem, and sniffing problem and many other problems.

Next, the mitigation they propose is "Occasionally, one device would slip in a coded message that would change both devices' network addresses". I don't think this works well.. after all, the messages themselves are not encrypted. So an attacker can just look at the message content to determine address to spoof. It is pretty easy to tell "throttle stick position" message from "engine status" one, especially given you know the prior history. One message immediately after address change might be unmodified, but that's OK, the next ones would be spoofed. Idea: as long as you are changing firmware in incompatible ways, maybe just add encryption? This is well understood and works well to protect against spoofing (and many other things too).

Finally, they assume attacker is guessing the number sequence using machine learning model, and that random number generation is done using predictable methods (I bet something like LFSR or LCG) What is their threat model exactly? Machine learning is pretty resource-intensive. If the attacker knows it will be LFSR or LCG, they can use predictors tuned to that specific algorithm, which will be substantially more efficient. And if this is any of many known cryptographically strong RNGs, then attacker might as well give up immediately. Either way, no need for machine learning.
Easier said that done. Migrations are hard. AWS can really lock you in to their proprietary services, "serverless" stuff like Dynamo, Lambda, SQS, etc. It's easy to get in, hard to get out once you have a lot of data. If you stick with more standard infrastructure (RDS, EC2, containers on ECS, etc.) you'll have an easier time.
Am I the only person completely unaffected by lighting when it comes to sleep?

Older ThinkPads had accelerometers in them to detect when the machine had been dropped and park the disk heads in the instant before it hit the floor hard to avoid data destruction. A Linux driver was written for this accelerometer, and someone had configured Compiz to shift to the virtual desktop immediately to the left or right, depending on which side the laptop had been smacked.

Now that's hack value.
I used to follow a blog (possibly retraction watch? I can't remember now) where they would go through basic biology papers and find photoshopped/edited images and ask the author about them. Sometimes this would lead to retractions etc.

They did mention other people had tried and failed to build tools for this, but the current state of the art was drinking-a-coffee-and-looking-at-it-real-hard. This was before the current explosion of AI, so maybe it's different now?

Anyone else able to chime in?
