>Certain Kia or Hyundai models can be stolen using a screwdriver and a USB charging cord.

>Cleveland, St. Louis and Seattle are among the other cities that started suing the the car companies earlier this year. Baltimore’s lawsuit says the companies “failed to keep up with industry standards,” and claim it was a result of business decisions made to reduce costs and boost profits “notwithstanding decades of academic literature and research supporting the deterrent effects” of anti-theft technology.

>Car thefts in the city have nearly doubled this year compared to the same time last year, part of a nationwide trend after videos showing how to easily steal the vehicles racked up millions of views on TikTok.
Apparently the save data was really only 75MB. I'm not sure what could use 5GB in save data... dynamically generated FMV?
Is there a list published somewhere documenting which Hyundai and Kia car models are affected?
Furthermore, in other words—god this makes me so mad—it's a question of responsibility. The species has loads of people to take responsibility for it, and will have an infinitely more in the future. The people who need help immediately around you? The actual world? Not so much. If you completely dissociate from your physical existence in the world and imagine all people everywhere at all times as equidistant from you, like a god, well great, but I suspect you're doing that because you're too vain and hurt and too much of a coward to engage with the world around you in all its painful reality—painful to you, because it will remind you that you haven't felt like a valid part of it YET, and you never WILL until you accomplish the Work that makes you worthy of existing—fixing everything everywhere for all time, but starting with—nothing, nowhere, ever. You'd do well to notice that you have voluntarily accepted responsibility for this on some trumped-up rational basis because that's actually EASIER than doing something once for anyone that actually exists.

They for sure do, they spell a lot of words different as they use the French spelling. Like neighbour and favour.
I am pretty sure that voluntary birth control is good for the long term. In fact, one problem with longtermism is the idea of constant and never interrupted progress. No backtracking is allowed.

Once you allow backtracking. It is possible to spend millions of years in stagnation and then billions of years with massive progress. So the people who talk about getting to the future faster might end up wasting more time on getting back to the optimal path.

One thing with the bail reform movement is that the voters who are asked whether they support it don't necessarily understand the seemingly obvious, but technically non-obvious terms being used.

For example in NY, it was sold as only applying to non-violent crimes.
So one might say - sure this sound great, obviously we don't need to pre-trial hold non-violent criminals!

However technically, as defined in law, theres a lot of things that "sound violent" but are considered non-violent felonies.
Second degree manslaughter (125.15) is, for the purposes of NY State law, a non-violent felony.

So the next question - what might get a person charged with second degree manslaughter?
* Well, a guy recently chocked an erratic mentally ill homeless man to death on the subway was charged with second degree manslaughter only

Other historical examples just to name a few-

* Speeding 55mph in a 25mph local road (Delancey), killing a pedestrian and fleeing the scene

* Guy accidentally shooting a friend with an unregistered gun while playing video games

* DUI with kids in the car so badly you flip the car, killing one child

* Drunken stealing a truck, driving up 7th Ave and hitting a Bus so fast they killed the driver

* Guy overdosing his 10 month old on fentanyl somehow

* Cop accidentally shoots a guy in the stairway of a housing project, proceeds to leave and call union rep rather than render assistance, while arguing with his partner not to report the shooting

* Drunk driving 90mph in a 25mph, crashing into another drunk driver who was on a suspended license, killing a passenger in the back, and the most either of them got charged with was again, second degree manslaughter
“Is it sensationalised trash designed for boomers who are not capable of reading on a topic unless there are intensifiers before every keyword?” is generally the hallmark of those publications.

If it were the WSJ, Telegraph or Times (London) publishing it too, your concern would be more justified.
There are names that can be found. While not everyone can be fairly thrown under the bus certain names can be found and those people can be blamed. Who approved the design? Who signed off on the inspection? There is a signature that points to at least one guilty party.

Doing this sets a precedent and an example that prevents people from frivolously permitting things that are unsafe if there is a risk you'll be thrown in jail.
Yes, supposedly quote-on-quote benign not actually proven in fact.
However badly the US fucked up the three invasions you mentioned, it was way worse for the people in those countries - so sorry, but it's an irrelevant objection. I'm not implying that US politics are rational, just that it projects a credible threat. It's geopolitics 101.

Yeah but you’d be wrong. The “foreign capitalists” are betting on Turkiye but mostly betting against other “foreign capitalists”.

Yes! Some may feel the author was excessively cautious but in this case it actually compensated for the author also not understanding exactly how Find My Device works, and the two cancelled out and resulted in the correct decisions being made!

In trying to troubleshoot annoying “lost AirPods” notifications without turning off Find My Device, I ended up learning a bit about how the system seems to work.

The way Find My Device works is that there’s a broad class of “child” devices like AirPods that basically only have the ability to say “hello, I’m <Apple ID/serial>” and perhaps the ability to say “help, I’m lost, my name is <Apple ID/serial>” - but crucially they do not have any kind of location data themselves. Then there’s a narrower class of “adult” devices (iPads, iPhones, and Mac) that have location data (GPS on iPads/iPhones, geolocated IP on Macs) and network connectivity. They have the ability to hear any child devices and report “I’m at this location, and I heard a [lost] child with this ID” to the central service, which can then report that information to the parent of that ID. (Incidentally, this let me figure out how to fix my spurious “lost device” notifications - I leave my old MacBook Air on, at my house, connected to wifi, to act as a “stay at home parent” device that can report on child devices, no issues since then.)

If someone trusts the location dot too much and uses it to “find the thief”, there is a possibility they will end up instead accosting the iPhone-bearer who happens to be closest to their device. In the “lost child / responsible adult” analogy, this is sort of an adult reporting they saw a lost child in the museum and being accused of kidnapping the child themselves. (Seeing the same person associated with the device in multiple locations is a much stronger signal, of course.)
You seem to imply EU regulators do not require european banks to "comply with basic financial corruption protections". Any source to that?

What comes to european banks not wanting to do anything with US related entities, my understanding is that the primary reason is the non-trivial amount of red tape and legal risks associated with US entities weighted against relatively small amoumt of pontential customers.
Sure, lets take a look at that section.

> Foxx has directed her office to not prosecute shoplifting cases under $1,000 as felonies.

I mean you can still prosecute them as anything else i.e. misdemeanor. Personally, I'm not sure that stealing a backpack with a laptop should count as a felony.

If not getting to put somebody away for a decades for stealing an iPhone makes you quit your job; maybe you're not in it to protect and to serve.

> declining to prosecute low-level shoplifting and drug offenses and by diverting more cases to alternative treatment programs.

So instead of sending people to jail she's sending them to rehab. I'd personally say a very short prison sentence followed by rehab is probably most effective (I mean look at how hard white collar criminals try to avoid prison; it has a powerful effect even if its for <7d). But unless he's going to show that the people in rehab instead of prison are committing these crimes (which it almost always isn't; plenty of fresh criminals available) it's an argument without any evidence.

I also don't think firing gunshots in a playground (his actual complain) counts as "low-level shoplifting" as well as crime is increasing everywhere including non-democratic states/counties. She'd never get elected in the bible belt so many he should consider employment there. (note: bible belt has the highest homicide rate [1]).

Author implicitly raises a question, but fails to articulate it and then answer it clearly. The question is whether open source software is to be considered a product and somewhat related whether downloading/using open source software creates a transaction.

I can safely say that I don't now the answer to the question and therefore I cannot draw conclusions as far reaching as the article author does. Effectively, the CRA is going to impose certain security standard on software products. People in medical, automotive, aviation, military fields were already subject to certain security standards, so GitHub's claim regarding unobtainability is demonstrably misleading if not outright false, depending on definitions of safety/security standards.

As it pertains to open source, it all depends on whether mere publication of open source software would be considered product release. I can agree with the author here that clarification may be needed. An important note here is that such regulation (OS is not affected) would have tremendous effect on open source. The companies using open source software in products would essentially be forced to either take open source under their belt with proper controls in place or be effectively forced to properly support open source development by at least providing security oversight. Sincerely, I have no idea what effect that would have as a whole.
2 hours of active use, or about 10 hours in suspend.

Not sure what's so "ouch" about it. People also bought devkits which didn't come with any battery at all. Only some people were presented with the opportunity to receive a phone from the earliest revisions and only some of those people chose to - presumably those who cared more about getting a platform to hack on as early as possible than things like battery life.
We had to work around all the Secure Boot bullshit. It wasn't terrible once we figured out that was the problem, but when we expected it to just work, it turned into a lot of frustrated searching around on the internet to figure out why stuff wasn't working.

No, we are not. I’ve worked as a defense attorney. It is was terrifying to see how much leeway and how many extra chances were given to violent criminals. The DAs job is impossible.
Lots of comments that didn’t read the article so here’s a good excerpt on why there’s a lawsuit.

Baltimore’s lawsuit says the companies “failed to keep up with industry standards,” and claim it was a result of business decisions made to reduce costs and boost profits “notwithstanding decades of academic literature and research supporting the deterrent effects” of anti-theft technology.

“The dramatically increased rate of Hyundai and Kia theft in Baltimore has required city and police resources that would not have been needed but for Hyundai and Kia’s deliberate failures,” the lawsuit says. “Car thieves — many of them teenagers— take advantage of these failures and engage in reckless driving, creating substantial safety risks to themselves and Baltimore residents and their property.”
Similarly, for zipping files in JS, I have coded the possibility to compress zip files on several cores in zip.js [1]. The approach is simpler as it consists of compressing the entries in parallel. It still offers a significant performance gain though when compressing multiple files in a zip file, which is often the nominal case.

I've also noticed for some text documents (was it json? I don't remember) that bzip compresses significantly better than xz (and of course gzip/pigz). Not sure if I tested zstd with high/extreme settings at that time.
I would recommend to use just good old database client and send your queries as text, nothing it's easier than that, every orm struggles when you want to do some relatively complex query, I struggled to do something like this with kysely `LEFT JOIN table2 ON (table1.id = tabl2.id AND table2.status = 1` was insane how complicated it was, sure you can pass raw sql, but what's the point of the orm then.
That's pretty bigoted.

They could still have found a buyer for Holden, without subsidies, for a nominal $1.
There's a comment upstream that says "this person's opinions are similar to those of Fox News and the NY Post, so it should be ignored". That doesn't bode well for the actual people who have to live in Chicago.
Their cars omit the industry standard features to prevent someone from starting the car without a key. That makes the cars trivially easy to steal.

When they purchase a car, a reasonable person would assume that the key works to the degree that is standard in the industry.
The purpose of the research was to contribute to our understanding of emergent viruses. I mentioned several other contributions of that class of research, namely vaccine and antiviral development. Understanding how viruses mutate also informs our understanding of what PPE is necessary to prevent the spread of infection. So yes actually, this type of research does help us develop appropriate hospital protocols with respect to PPE.

With respect to EcoHealth specifically, consider the following statement from the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases:

"And if you look at the viruses that the $120,000-a-year grant was given through EcoHealth to the Wuhan Institute to do surveillance on, and you look at the viruses that they studied that they published in the literature, and that was in all of their progress reports, those viruses could not possibly ever turn into SARS-CoV-2, even if they tried to turn them into SARS-CoV-2, because they were evolutionarily so far from SARS-CoV-2 that anybody who knows anything about virology would say there’s nothing you could do to those viruses that would turn them into SARS-CoV-2. Yet what gets conflated is that the N.I.H. funded them, therefore you are liable for the lab leak if it’s a lab leak. It had nothing to do with what we did, because the viruses were unable to be made into SARS-CoV-2."

Most of my apis are consumed my multiple clients, many without user interfaces (other backend systems), some with mobile user interfaces, some with web interfaces. I should make my backend clients parse HTML? Or my mobile clients parse HTML? I don't see any benefit to coupling data to a visual markup language, unless you are only serving web ui clients, and have no plans for that to ever change. Or I should stand up additional services (and pay for their operation and maintenance) just to server side render my data wrapped in html? That seems sillier to me, but to each their own.
Don't mean to add 1 more to the list, but I would say tRPC is a must have for side projects for me now where I'm not requiring a publicly facing API.

The ability to just define a function on the backend, and it be callable in my frontend, with responses automatically typed is a game changer for building fast.

For me that means https://create.t3.gg/ is the current go-to for starting a new project, but it's definitely missing some pieces this stack has.

> Those laws would be imperialistic if a majority of citizens around the world, including a vast majority of American citizens, would not gladly demand the same protection when shown what websites do with their information.

Imperialism for the good of the imperial subjects is as old as time. The barbarian nations need civilizing, and if they only knew what was good for them they'd gladly embrace our regime!

Or, as CS Lewis put it:

The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their conscience.

If you are interested in optimizing parallel decompression and you happen to have a suitable NVIDIA GPU, GDeflate [1] is interesting. The target market for this is PC games using DirectStorage to quickly load game assets. The graph in [1] shows DirectStorage maxing out the throughput of a PCIe Gen 3 drive at about 3 GiB/s when compression is not used. When GPU GDeflate is used, the effective rate hits 12 GiB/s.

If you have suitable hardware running Windows, you can try this out for yourself using Microsoft's DirectStorage GPU decompression benchmark [2].

A reference implementation of a single threaded compressor and multi (CPU) threaded decompressor can be found at [3]. It is Apache-2 licensed.

Jesus, no idea what to say here... Just one thing: mRNA vaccines, coming out of cancer treatment research, one of the most sucessful companies is actually German, and they use the mountains of cash they made during Covid, partnering with Pfizer on Covid vaccines, to really push the cancer research.

Unregulated medical research is bad, like in really, literall Nazi doctor bad. Shocking it still has to pointed out...
