You can’t assume you can trigger a system after it has undergone extreme structural loads or failure. So waiting until that happens while rocket is, charitably, careening does not ensure staying in any box.

I doubt they had any uplink or downlink during that mode so there’s no data to be had.

Prediction: the FAA will come down hard on them.
Now just go one step further and cut out the parasocial pathetic relationships with onlyfans creators and you'll be good!
Being the image host for Reddit has to be a lot less lucrative when Reddit is their own image host now.
Can the speed be safely increased once you leave the atmosphere and there is no (appreciable) drag? With such a system in place, are there no other interesting places to stop along the way to geosync?
>“Foreigners seemed to prefer having a mixture of Prussian blue and gypsum with their tea, to make it look uniform and pretty, and as these ingredients were cheap enough, the Chinese [have] no objection to [supplying] them as such teas always fetch . . . a higher price!”

This quote and the preceding paragraph about the distrust of the Chinese tea manufacturers are quite something. I hadn't considered the "made in China" stereotype for quality had been around for centuries.
The right to bank should be enshrined in the laws of free societies. I don't care what the business is or what people's moral qualms might be--as long as it is not breaking the law, there is no excuse for cutting off this critical business infrastructure.
I believe you're talking about Hot Money, which was extremely interesting.

A number of Tesla-related deaths can be attributed to Autopilot malfunction. Real people - really dead.
yes the USA chant was cringe as heck but otherwise their cheering is fun
so good to see this here. you haven't done justice to how simple Plane is to get started. tools like Jira and others almost mandate tribal knowledge before seeing value. Plane is an example of good first principles thinking and progressive learning on the job. wish you all the success on your journey.
I personally use pass which out of the box uses git, meaning it's trivial to sync to as many devices as I want. And obviously merging is a solved issue there.
Yes, why aren’t they working on a new video game, instead!? /s

There are a lot of different medical issuers that affect people in various way. some are more impactful than others, but it makes no sense to put all resources on a single, most impactful problem. Better to put some resources on a variety of problems. Cancer research is still going to get a lot more resources than this.
Dumbed down compared to what? Is there a complex PWA installation UX flow you're contrasting this to?
I believe this is intentional. They engines start with less thrust than is needed to launch the rocket and only throttle up fully after the system checks pass.
If you are starting from very very low and if you are consuming the crystal then you dont need to read anything more. You can try 5mg in the morning and I promise any newbie will understand it fully before evening.
updating a counter (in memory on a single host) is typically a single- or double-digit-nanoseconds operation, basically never the bottleneck in anything
I know a few victims. Technology was never even part of the equation. The internet didn't even exist at least as we know it today. In every case that I know of it was coaches and family members. Even banning the internet entirely would not have prevented any of those cases.
Does anyone have a timeline of what the history of this has been? Because I'm fairly positive that I was going to sign up for MDMA therapy for chronic pain in Chicago ~5 years ago because a clinic nearby offered it. But when I got around to it insurance regulations had changed and was no longer going to cover part of it so it was going to be incredibly expensive.

It's possible that was ketamine therapy but I thought it was mdma.
"The right to bank should be enshrined in the laws of free societies"

Banks are living on "Credit", which is unethical and does not correspond to any creation of goods or services in the real economy.
I've thought about doing this as well, but I really like the password manager integration in Firefox. How does the Keepass Browser Extension work? Is it as seamless and do you need to have Keepass running in the background at all times?
No, it's just a form of long-term repetition, intelligence is not required, just don't limit your example set to those that save you from poison, but also include those that poison
https://old.reddit.com/r/ProtonPass/comments/12su1vq/proton_... They claim that using it as cloud service prevents brute force.
The launch was nominal.
I'd argue that consumer electronics makes people stay at home or look down so they don't actually look at the sky very often. Of course this is a stretched answer but I miss a lot about my X-Files days. Back then I had the wild dream of working as an UFO hunter/researcher.

Hopefully I can inject some fire into my son's heart. It's a good topic worth wasting a whole life on it, as long as one pursues it scientifically.

(Why SpaceX Cares about Concrete)

This probably explains why some of the engines didn't make it off the pad. That is some incredible damage.
> Americans would start to believe you Europeans really need to get that knife situation under control.

A lot of Americans unironically do believe that.
It explains the company changing its “remote only” promise to those employees they hired on that basis. They gave it a try and got robbed of 30 months salary.
Very different situations. N1 was a technical blunder on many levels (and it wasn't a moon rocket - it was a hastily repurposed LEO launcher intended for in-orbit assembly, not optimal for the TLI).

Instead of adopting the proven R-7 stacking scheme which was much easier to test piece by piece, Korolyov opted to a novel design which was too wide (17m!!), and static fires required a humongous and prohibitively expensive testing facility. The lack of static fires made the development too slow and expensive, as the only way to test it was in the actual flight. Combine this with other technical mistakes (the shape led to the extra weight while the modularity wasn't required, too much drag, etc) and Mishin's poor leadership after Korolyov's death, and you have a recipe for a failed project.

Starship is much narrower (9m), today's tech is much better, so the static fires are much cheaper; and unlike N-1, it's actually designed for fast iterations from the ground up.
Keep in mind that approvals don’t need to be prescription based. Consider the value of quality assurance and drug labeling. Tylenol can readily kill and the importance of knowing what’s in something. Therapists don’t have the authority to prescribe but could still support a session.
Falcon Heavy, with 27 engines, has had a number of successful launches, and zero failures.
Of course. I was more pointing to the fact that they can't afford it as much (so the wages/meat price gap), as opposed to the relative price difference with vegetables.

But of course, vegetables and such should be cheaper than meat.
Theres the smuggling of wild rubber tree seeds, which eventually got to Malaysia.

https://geography.name/how-rubber-moved-to-asia/

> The Brazilian monopoly suffered a fatal blow in 1876. In that year the English explorer Sir Henry Wickham (1800–67) gathered about 70,000 seeds from wild rubber trees in the forest close to the city of Santarem, in the state of Para. Wickham smuggled the seeds out of Brazil and took them to Kew Gardens, London, where they were sown. Many of them germinated, and 3,000 seedlings were sent from London to Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). In 1877, 22 rubber plants were sent from Ceylon to the Singapore Botanic Gardens. The trees were growing there when in 1888 Sir Henry Nicholas Ridley (1855–1956) arrived as the gardens' first scientific director. Ridley spent years studying the trees, and in 1895 he discovered a technique for tapping the latex without seriously harming the tree. That made it practicable to cultivate the trees commercially. In 1890 Ridley exhibited the first cultivated rubber trees, and in 1896 the first rubber plantations were established in Malaysia. Most of the trees were grown from Ridley's seeds. Growers went on to produce hardier, disease-resistant varieties, and large rubber plantations were developed in Ceylon and Singapore as well as Malaysia.
CoreDB, a Managed Postgres Service
CoreDB has raised a $6.5M seed round to building a managed Postgres service:
* Use any extension, even custom or private extensions
* Provide UI for popular extensions, and a framework to include the community in those efforts
* Solution Kits - packaging of extensions, tools and configurations, to make it easy to get started using Postgres for specific new use cases
* An intelligent advisor that helps you to better use the features that you’re already using in Postgres
"Liberal" is an oxymoron. The social contract is not optional. We agree to be bound by rules because we prefer it to being by force, which is the default. Security is liberty, in the optimization sense.
Elon is on the record as saying that launches cause him massive anxiety so I'm sure it was difficult to be outwardly happy
> , all of whom are remote and not on PTO, have not even opened their laptops in a month?

But in the call, he said "I'm not saying they haven't done any work...."

So- these people can work without a laptop. Can they work as well? Who knows, he's not giving us any details - but this isn't a case of them doing nothing over the last month, or he wouldn't have added that caveat.
"criminal" and "law breaker" are just terms used by the ruling class to describe behavior they believe they have the power to ban. You seem to be acting as if "law" is some independent natural phenomena as opposed to something created by and for the rulers
I don't have an opinion about the service, but that's why image hosts always die or end up like this. They have ongoing costs and almost no one wants to pay.
Please bring this same energy every time uses "Europe" in a positive light too.
Cheesesteaks don't happen in a vacuum. What's your breakfast look like? Dinner?

Wake up and shovel donuts into your face, and then pack a bunch more carbs and fat at dinner and yeah that cheesesteak will definitely help kill you.

Eating mostly veggies and reasonable choices + a couple of cheesesteaks a week and you'll be alright.
So I use 4g net connection here in the UK and just tried to load what I assume is the site? coedcherry.com? I got a vodaphone (uk mobile phone co whose network I'm apparently connected via) nag page asking me to confirm me age, we protect young mobile users blah blah blah. Which... I have never seen before in the six months I've been using this connection. Any other porn site even massive ones like xvideos works fine, but coedcherry does not?

Which is very odd. I'm really rather perplexed as to why your site would be blocked but the biggest porn site on the net is not if the purpose here is to block childrens access to porn.
Uhm. On the 2.4 era, you could boot a Linux floppy to play Nethack on it: NeHaBoDi.

I wonder if I could do the same with Slashem.
I'd also add that holy men smuggling out the means to break monopolies in their walking sticks is a popular theme, to the point of being a trope.
Ignoring anti trans behavior by powerful people is default approval. I’m not saying everyone needs to include a disclaimer in every comment but you’re out of line for suggesting this is off topic and you should reflect on yourself for-why you’re so offended seeing people advocating for the rights of groups Musk is repressing.
buzzfeed news shut down a while ago. they were doing really good work for a few years, but for the last couple years the "buzzfeed news" site has been taken over by the regular buzzfeed content and the actual journalism has dried up.

shutting it down just seems like a formality at this point.
> There are so many very obvious ways that information, especially false information, can cause demonstrable, material harm

Like what? Let's pretend, for argument's sake, that this website containing inflammatory information was never found by another person. What harm would the information cause? The answer is that it wouldn't cause any harm. How could it?

Not even the court case tried to make this claim. It claimed the harm was caused by the poor judgment of people in the man's life.
Different company. This is about SpaceX.
The big problem with the Space Shuttle was that the orbiter was located next to the fuel tank and between the solid boosters instead of on top of it. This made it impossible to perform the normal "accelerate away from the big boom" manoeuvre which normal rocket escape systems use. On Starship the passengers will be situated above the explosives instead of next to them/between them. As to whether it is possible to add escape engines of sufficient power to pull away the nose cone, push it up into a parabolic trajectory of sufficient height to give parachutes the chance to deploy I don't know but at least it could be done in theory where the design of the Space Shuttle and its "close cousin" Buran made this impossible.
You can't keep them off it. If you don't provide them access, they can get access on their friend's devices.

The key is education, you have to explain to your kids how these services works, how they are optimized for content engagement to show ads, how they mine your data, and what kinds of things they should look out for and avoid (like misinformation, catfishing, grooming, viral stupidity etc)
Ironically, MindGeek (also a Canadian company and the parent company of PornHub) is still in business. One of our former sponsors banks with a credit union in Quebec and that very Credit Union turned us down too. Our takeaway was that you'll get an exception if you're doing millions in transactions and are a huge corporation, but the "little guys" can GTFO.
Maybe when you “blah blah” someone’s whole argument, that should be a sign you aren’t engaging in a great way…
It's a narrowing of the Overton window, not any one specific topic being accepted in public discourse.
There's a scale I suppose. Paranoia is "China deliberately created and released Covid". My non-paranoid opinion is that China is a large and powerful country which has complete control over its citizens and companies and very much wants the US out of its hair so that it can take over large chunks of Asia with no pushback.
Failing in public is fine. We should encourage failure on the path to success.
Showing the graph of the functions without showing that there are only two possible integers to work with (since we're looking for solutions in ℕ, not ℝ) on the left side of the maximum feels like missing the most important part of the drawing things out. You can even leave the y axis unlabeled, but label the x-axis (especially since we've already determined f(1)=0) and draw some dots on the curve to show that those are the only values that can be in our solution space.

"There's a maximum at e, so the only two possible values on the left of e that can be used in these pairs are 1, and 2. But really there's only one, because 1 is the power identity, so we can't use that. If there is a solution, it has to use 2."

Which means we're solving one function for one unknown, in the natural numbers. 2ⁿ=n² gives n=4. We have found the only pair of integers that satisfies our constraint function.
In fact it was a really amazing "engine out" test. The thing appeared to been shedding engines all the way to RUD. I imagine these engines were all early generation, might as well fly them, units. It's easy to imagine a calculus of "we're pretty sure X% of engines will fail, but we only need Y% for this flight, go ahead and fly them". But yeah, Musk once said there's a gigawatt of power going through these Raptor engines, that's not nothing.
A good approach is learn from others' code. Read their code, build and optimize. One day, you will be able to build an all-new software or system.
I don't myself. If it isn't on my own infra, I won't trust it.

The idea that folk are keeping passwords in some cloud management portal owned by some company boggles my mind. But this is a very controversial opinion and offends many.
I think this is an appropriate use of resources. Fixing motility of stem cells in this case may reverse grey hair but improving the motility of other stem cells may have other health, immune and age related benefits. It is entirely possible this is just the tip of the iceberg so to speak. I just wish we could find non-RX methods to do these things.
There's a difference between recognizing that China has a political structure I don't like and the "everything China bad" red scare bullshit that is going on.

The US is plenty authoritarian and China becoming a democracy wouldn't actually change any of the things that people are paranoid about. The state mucking around in private industry to achieve political and national security goals and wage information warefare is as American as hamburgers.

Taken as a single political entity on the national stage China is just USA but in italics. It makes total sense that we would be uneasy in the US but that unease is how everyone not in the US feels about us. The unwavering belief that we're the good guys leads us to project our military might much more freely which doesn't exactly make us popular.

It is crazy that TikTok being a Chinese based company is obviously some ploy to undermine the US while in reality the CCP just forced TikTok to change their algorithm to be educational in China where such a thing wouldn't fly in the US because of the first amendment. China's video game ban for under-18s operates on the same principal.
Sorry my friend, I was out of line. This is a very frustrating subject, please forgive.
It is interesting how concepts of commercial secrecy and rule of law evolve over the centuries. In modern terms we might call this "knowledge transfer incident" a form of commercial espionage / intellectual property theft.

It is unclear if the affected entity ever imposed sanctions or other form of punishment on the perpetrator (presumably they did notice that there was no longer demand for their silk in certain markets??). It also appears that the perpetrators promptly established a monopoly of their own (on the basis of somebody else's know-how which is also somewhat odd with today's eyes :-).

Somehow it is all predicated on very sparse communication between different parts of the world. The flip side is that in today's hyper-connected world you might be able to tell if a secret has leaked just by triangulation.
Sounds like they're aiming for a few months: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1649050306943266819?cxt=...
And other logical questions no one seems to be asking. But oh well China bad USA good.
OP meant left in contrast to right-wing Americans, who typically espouse a more anti-China worldview.
I wouldn’t say the handling of COVID was smooth to say the least.

Yes we handled it, we are still paying the bill for that handling (inflation).

I think AI will have the disruption level of COVID, but there will not be an end in sight, 5%, 10, 20, 50% of people will lose jobs and even if they can refrain and handle it, it will take 5-10 years for those people to handle it. Can the countries have people on unemployment for that long ?
There was no plan to return the booster back.
Mercury. Apollo.
Of course not "lauding the amount of bad things". Rather we learn to live with some non-optimal outcomes as the price of preventing worst outcomes. Our system does not, and is not designed to, select the best, and sometimes very problematic individuals make a scene, but it denies the possibility of that becoming a permanent state of affairs.
For non hyperactive types I believe there is commonly anxiety with the ADD which is alleviated by the small dose of amphetamine. Maybe MDMA helps reduce anxiety for the medium term after a dose? I don’t know if that’s been found scientifically yet. I do know MDMA clears anxiety during the high. Knowing what the lack of anxiety feels like could be very powerful paired with therapy to train a body to return to lower anxiety levels.
That’s progress!
Discourse on Coffee (1699)
If the fine does not exceed the value of the gain, is there any incentive to comply with the law?
Why is it amazing that it left the pad?
Apologies for the mix up with the rate. 8x is still on the side of my argument though.

I cherry picked the Netherlands because of the large amount of drug trade there. Every other country in Europe compared favorably to the United States.

From what I can see there is a similar level of diversity in the Netherlands and the US. In both countries around 30% of people are born abroad. In the US around 72% are white and in the NL around 76% are ethnically Dutch. In Rotterdam in particular around half of the population was born to Non-Dutch parents.

I let GPT-4 walk me through troubleshooting steps with my extremely slow read times on my SSD-backed KVM virtual machine. It told me the things it needed, I pasted relevant logs and other output, and finally I solved my issue. I was highly impressed! It parsed atop, top, and various other content, explaining exactly what everything meant.

Another benefit was that it was able to present a much more readable version of some of what I pasted. I may have to start using it for cleaning up hard-to-read output (looking at you, atop!) in the future, it really excels at that!

Also, the issue ended up being that I that I was reading from what turned out to be an NFS mount. Doh!
a) This is why you go through the legal system instead of asking Google directly. Report malicious activity to a three-letter agency of your choice, and let them do the dirty work.

b) You can reduce the list of suspects significantly by correlating activity on multiple services from the same IP address around the same time.

c) You'd be wrong... especially since Google never really forgets who you are, even when you are not signed in.
I remember visiting the BuzzFeed office back in '13 and hearing about how the BuzzFeed-y entertainment stuff was just a means to fund the actual hard hitting journalism.

"Funny" how it panned out.
What is your view on where the Soviets went wrong with their N1?

Correction: Chrome deprecated Chrome Apps. Chrome Apps are not the same thing as Progressive Web Apps.

Chrome Apps were a proprietary Chrome-specific thing — a special type of Chrome Extension, created and managed through the Chrome Web Store.

Progressive Web Apps, meanwhile, are a set of open web standards, requiring no registration with any central authority; and have support in multiple browsers (e.g. when you "add an app to your Home Screen" from iOS Safari, that's also the PWA standards at work.)

Chrome Apps were effectively obsoleted by the Progressive Web App standards.

...although, as it happens, Chrome reused a lot of the Chrome Apps business logic to implement its support of Progressive Web Apps. If you install e.g. this PWA demo app (https://www.khmyznikov.com/pwa-install/), you'll see that Chrome opens up its old "Chrome Apps" directory to dump a shortcut icon for the PWA in there.
