zcash's shielded pool is probably the closest to a solution for that that exists today, and at the very least a bunch of the cryptography/math/overall model should be re-usable in a more traditional setup.

(I remain basically a crypto skeptic but zcash appear to at least be -attempting- something focused and interesting enough for me to continue to pay vague attention)

CPAnel is popular with shared hosting and is predominantly Perl. Companies like godaddy and eig as well as thousands of shares host still use this. Certainly a shrinking market but it has a number of years in it. Apache spamassassin is written in Perl.

This also true if you post the wrong things to social media in Canada (https://northernontario.ctvnews.ca/sudbury-ont-police-say-yo...) and in Australia (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWZ06UThHas) and in the UK if you post something offensive they'll outright arrest you.

For personal projects I've been quite happy with Auth-0. I was initially worried when Okta purchased them, but not much has changed. The bar for entry and integration is one of the lowest out there but it's not what I would call the "enterprise" friendly choice from a capabilities standpoint. Large clients I work with are all Okta or Ping backed by AD. Literally none of them considered Google.

Does your AWD car with summer tires brake better in icy conditions than your FWD?

> better straight line stopping distance and cornering ability don't actually help you because being able to controllably put power to the ground is still the bottleneck in the "is it reasonable to drive in these conditions" equation

I take this to mean the answer is no. I drive in serious winter conditions, and AWD with winter tires is great, but it doesn't matter how many wheels are applying traction when you slide into a ditch.
This is perhaps a hyperbolic. Self-driving tractors can always be driven by hand when needed.

Maybe because everybody who has relatives over 50 knows somebody with Long Covid--probably multiple people.

What I don't believe is that this kind of syndrome is specific to Covid, I suspect it holds for every serious virus you get infected with. The only difference this time is that the medical community is watching.

The fact that Epstein-Barr is causative with MS and HPV is causative with cervical cancer shows that the damage that even fairly mild virii do persists for a very long time.

Any claim that a virus doesn't cause persistent damage simply means you haven't looked very hard.

no one thats been following the test campaign for Super Heavy is surprised by the damage. the damage to the pad has been documented after the 3, 14, and 33 engine Static fires in the run up to launch. I believe they said SpaceX has been experimenting with different concrete formulations in the repairs after each static fire. There has also been photos of what appears to be flame diverters on site at Starbase, and I think they have even done a crude test fit of them under the OLM at some point recently.

Lots of countries don't have this, at least to the same extent. Americans are exceptionally focused on retribution and the effects are deleterious. Also they really don't like the messy reality of justice, hence not only modern shows like Law & Order, but even Columbo. If you can imagine real justice is always like Columbo, then when you hear that cops arrested a person on suspicion of murder, you know they're guilty - why else would cops arrest somebody?
Data point of one, but I was interested in buying a Tesla for my next car until I learned more than I ever wanted about Musk as a person and a leader of a company through how he's handled Twitter.

I can only assume similar approaches to problem solving are applied at Tesla, though perhaps less publicized. But more to the point, I want to minimize the amount of my money that goes towards that man based on complete misalignment of beliefs.

There's probably a business school case study here. I can't name any executive leadership at any other car company in existence. And thus it does not influence my decision on whether to consider cars from them.

Buzzfeed News' side of this controversy can be found here, with some additional details from the final Mueller report: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/bensmith/how-we-charact...

My take is that Mueller was trying so hard not to find Trump guilty that he bent over backwards to interpret Cohen's testimony in an unrealistically benign light, splitting hairs over whether Trump's coaching amounted to "directing" or not.

I wonder if in pursuit of outright performance, AMD stopped optimizing for low power consumption. Desktop Zen3 Vermeer (which the newly announced 5000E series also are) with chiplets idles at around 20 watts, presumably due to having to maintain signal integrity between the chiplets. Similar story with the chiplet-based RDNA3 cards idling at 100W. Anecdotally, my Renoir laptop is also lacking in battery life.

> I was super cheap back then, not even wanting to shell out for a domain name, so the original URL was virtenu.dyndns.org/lt. Eventually I bought the .info for $0.99 after the site picked up some speed a few months later.

> I ran it out of my bedroom at my parents house for a long time, eventually switching over to a VPS sometime when I moved out.

This brings back many memories from my high school and early college days. I used to run a file and image hosting site (legal content only), and it's amusing to think about the lengths I went to save money. My domain purchase (.com for $8/year or so) felt like a significant investment. I managed to host the site with a considerable number of users out of my parent's basement on a 768kbps upload DSL connection for several years. Eventually, I migrated to a VPS that cost me around $20/month.

I ended up selling the site to another hosting service for approximately $700 because it became too much work. In retrospect, I'm guessing it was a no-brainer move for them since they acquired something like 10k users for $700, but from my perspective, I was happy to receive $700.

I know a lot of people with those ridiculous big trucks, and 2 of them use them for utility, one has a boat and one has a 5th wheel. The others just...have them. So until there's zero people driving them for vanity or aggression reasons, it doesn't feel dishonest at all. Your response feels like a typical US response to social ills - turn a blind eye to a problem because a) the thing causing the problem is fun/popular/profitable b) there's a handful of hyper specific potentially valid reasons for the thing that have nothing to do with the people causing the problem (most of the giant trucks in my area can't even haul anything because of the vanity lifts and various "upgrades" - they would make the argument you are as to why they should be allowed but they would not support anything that would restrict them to those purposes).

I clearly state that possibility in my comment and explain why I think it's unlikely.

The base claim was that ByteDance was pushing sexualised content on TikTok while policing it on Douyin. This makes zero sense given that TikTok's web content was sanitised. Douyin being awash with sexualised content implies an audience for that content in China, further weakening the argument that this is some sort of targeted attack.

The alternative is that Douyin thirst traps are some sort of co-ordinated attack on the west. Despite not being available in the western app or translated in any way.

Rear-wheel-drive vehicles have traction problems on slick roads. Losing traction on your front wheels is terrifying. I've had this happen before as I have had the opposite fishtailing with front-wheel-drive. Losing rear-wheel traction is something that can be compensated, but I don't think you can do much when you lose front-wheel traction.
I can make good tasting beef broth but I usually don't even bother.

I make a huge, 15L pot of broth. I use various pieces of meat, especially ones that have a lot of collagen. If I think I have too little cartilage I will add achilles tendons which are pretty much pure collagen. I brown everything them either on a pan or in the oven and I simmer it for at least 12h until all meat disintegrates and all collagen and fats dissolve. I then remove and discard meat and bones and small particles by filtering it through fine mesh strainer, I remove (and store) the tallow. And then I reduce everything about four-five times to get the meatiest substance on Earth. Cool it down, it should completely congeal in room temperature. I cut it into cubes, throw it into plastic bags and into the freezer. Then whenever I want to make soup or a sauce or risotto or whatever else, I just take some cubes from the freezer and drop directly into the pan or pot.

I also make and freeze other useful things. For example, I always keep a supply of bolognese sauce which I make 9L at a time and then lasts me for a year.
Very high performance != Fun. They are different. They say Miatas are fun to drive, and they are cheap, and therefore popular to race. But they are definitely not fast cars.

It also has a lot to do with avoiding lusting for revenge, instead focusing on rehabilitation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incarceration_in_Norway

Correct. All cars, whether they are FWD, RWD, or AWD are All-Wheel-Brake. The most important aspect of stopping safely are your tires.
> Well that explains it. You do not fully understand the "election night frenzy" that occurs every four years in the US.

I actually understand it, it's very similar for us. Why would you immediately assume it's different? In the UK it's different, it's incredibly quiet and somber. And I just told you that we finish counting earlier than many if not most US states anyway. Recounts happen but are limited to individual poll stations, because of all the party representatives they have very few chances of changing anything.

It's really not that much overhead, the US has 900k people operating the polling stations on the voting day (https://www.eac.gov/sites/default/files/document_library/fil...).

That means 10 workers need to handle 1600 votes. It's really not that much, you can manually count those in a couple of hours once the polls are closed. Also, you can tap into volunteers from both parties.

I really don't understand the US: you have half the country saying that the 2000 elections were decided by malfunctioning counting machines in Florida. Now in 2020 you have the other half distrusting machines for fear of tampering, and you still rely on machines? why?

This is the norm in Europe, poll stations count their own votes and they get tallied up centrally. e.g. Germany https://www.deutschland.de/en/topic/politics/election-in-ger... or UK https://theconversation.com/explainer-how-britain-counts-its...
