It seems like you have a cognitive distortion to work out. Amplifying an anecdotal sample to classify all people with a shared interest as having other characteristics of your sample is understandable but also misguided.
Ok. I mean, we've all seen The Wire. But the problem with Kia and Hyundai is happening in other cities across the country, and is well documented on social media. There absolutely is something special about these particular makes, so discounting it just doesn't make sense.
If the worst racism possible is complaining about disproportionate media focus on white on black crime then I think we can safely declare the problem of racism solved. :)

To be a bit more constructive: looking at those links it seems obvious to me that the main point is about media focus, not the actual crime statistics.
The synthetic voder output sounds more or less exactly like the output of a vocoder where the input is a human voice and the carrier is a sawtooth. Not surprising, given that the voder was made by the same people.

But I'm still unsure why those two things sound so similar to each other, and formant/LPC chips sound so similar to each other, but the two groups of things sound so dissimilar (at least, IMO).

I have a background in electronic music, so I'm pretty familiar with additive, subtractive, and other types of synthesis.

I'm especially surprised about the physical modelling sounding more like a formant chip, because a guitar "talk box" gives a sound exactly like a vocoder, and that should be almost the same thing, just with a real human mouth instead of a model.
Except that isn’t true anymore. The tight coupling between economic development and CO2 emissions has been broken, and there’s no longer any reason to believe that high CO2 output industry is best way for developing countries to improve their standards of living.

The west might have burned its way to economic development, but developing nations are forging their own paths, and hydrocarbons aren’t the industrial requirement they used to be, or even the most economical way to producing energy. Choosing “green” alternatives also means choosing alternatives that faster and easier to deploy, work incredibly well in decentralised systems, and are often cheaper and easier to repair.

It's less about the trail of economic hardship and more about the media losing interest in using it to divide people.

Therefore people stopped arguing over it.

The most of the heat created by all the CO2 we dump into the atmosphere is absorbed by the ocean.
I don't know any prior open-world game that makes the physical exploration of the landscape feel as natural and enjoyable as BOTW. That felt like a new experience to me. The closest I could identify would be Just Cause 2, but movement on the ground in that game feels much more clunky. There's certainly an aesthetic aspect to it as well.
On an 8 bit bus the 68k is almost useless. I am currently working on a project that involves that and looking at the logic analyzer trace is just tear-inducing. 68k has a terrible IPC to start with, and sticking it on a narrow bus cuts it by more than half. You’d be lucky to squeeze 0.8MIPS out of a 16MHz 68k on a 8 wide bus. Mainly the cause is the fact that the smallest possible instruction is 2 bytes. And it will take at least 4 cycles to fetch it (68k will execute a compete nCS cycle PER BYTE - no bursts to be found here).
I hope you have an opportunity to watch Magnum, P.I. S3E1 “Did You See the Sunrise?” if you haven’t already for a fantastic dramatic representation of the phenomenon you’re talking about. This antihero trope may have gathered significant momentum during this one episode.

Even though it's a known cyclical pattern, there's just enough time between where people forget, so the news can sensationalize it.

For example, the last strong one was 2015-2016.
We can describe ourselves with statistics, that does not mean we are statistics. This is called the "Fallacy of the Map" where a symbol is falsely equated with the entity it represents. https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Mistaking_the_map_for_the_terr...

Statistics is collecting and analyzing numerical data. But what is the numerical data quantifying? It's quantifying a second thing. If everything were "just statistics" then there would be nothing left to take statistics of. This would constitute "infinite regress" or a "turtles all the way down" argument.

>What do you think the most impressive things are that the brain could do, that GPT-4 couldn't ?

This depends on what we consider "impressive." The human brain can control an entire human body, for one. Even if we take away the body, GPT-4 fails all sorts of basic arithmetic and reasoning problems. Additionally, the human brain is organic, analog, holographic, and reacts to external electromagnetic stimulation.

Yes I do. Your door screws are a bad example. My car door hinges are secured with bolts not accessible when the door is closed. I have given some examples of security features which don't impact repairability and you've ignored them.

yes, this is bigger news than people realize!
The longevity of a city's sad state doesn't seem to have any bearing on the dynamic of "bad policies delivering bad outcomes". I feel like this is the third time saying it so don't worry about a fourth, but the comparison was limited strictly to that equation.

The character of the bad outcomes certainly changes with longevity, such as entrenchment, as you mention. The fixes must also be different. I'm not disagreeing with you that these cities and their situations are entirely different.

Centralia, PA which is mentioned in the article, is also the inspiration for the town in the Silent Hill games/movie. The real-life town has been burning for 60 years at this point, and it's estimated that it could burn for up to 250 years.

Are you questioning whether this is the right place for you based more on quality of discourse or on the leanings of the views expressed?

I must confess the quality of discourse seems to have gone down over the last few years. Feels like we've had a migration from reddit.
The SNES wasn't at all underpowered compared to the SEGA Mega Drive. In fact, it was better in many ways.
I'll take SSDs over hard drives spinning up, and the rest of it is pretty much a clear improvement over what existed before. The fact that my M1 MBP doesn't usually spin up any fans is a bonus as well.

I'm always curious what spurs someone to do this (leak info to someone when there's no seeming financial upside). I imagine the sister was well-paid at Apple. Was it just the general siblinghood? There might've been some financial upside to the poster, but I'm not sure.

My dumb brain read it first as "10~14 is a small number, not that bad". But it's really not small, I can't imagine having rain almost every two days, or basically all month in January when it's already darker and colder.

I am of the "there's no bad weather only bad clothing" camp, but that much quasi-continuous rain in the winter is a seriously depressing thought. Even the monsoon in SEA only lasts a month or so and it's kinda warm.
All of which is neither here nor there when it comes to their failure to install common antitheft measures other manufacturers do, even taking it at face value (which frankly I find hard to do).
Couldn’t they use fiber optic connections to realistically remove the overhead of the interconnect communication?

I saw a demo from Kodak once where they printed a fiber optic backed motherboard and it was lightning fast even when they increased distance. No clue what the heck happened to that tech but I do recall one of the folks giving a lengthy explanation about how fiber optics could replace some of the metal used in cpus because they could make microscopic glass

Edit: turns out I was on to something with this, there is work being done on this exact problem[0]. I still wonder WTF happened with that Kodak tech though

In practice this might be true if the defaults settings of each layer happen to align sympathetically and/or you know what you’re doing and how to tune them all, but from first principles it stands to reason that the extra abstraction layer of a file system isn’t providing the database storage engine with anything useful?

I'm skeptical given how often I've seen people be accused of being nazis and upon investigating discovering to my disappointment some rather milktoast views that would have been mainstream in 1990.

Can you name an actual nazi he is courting?
It is interesting that you reject his observation (which I agree with) that many people do, in fact, believe, at a visceral level, that crime is out of control and many more people must be added to our already substantial pool of incarcerated persons... But then tack on another paragraph that starts from that exact premise.

Occasionally when I try to full screen a video, it results in a different video popping up. There seems to be some connection between the videos but I can't totally understand what that is. One time the video I ended up seeing was street violence, I assume it will be porno at some point.
The accounts of companies, government agencies and people linked to those two have a different color of check or a special icon. This seems like an actual improvement on everyone being blue to me.
Interesting question, though difficult to answer. Here's one attempt: https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2020/08/police-testilyin...

> This tendency to lie pervades all police work, not just high-profile violence, and it has the power to ruin lives. Law enforcement officers lie so frequently—in affidavits, on post-incident paperwork, on the witness stand—that officers have coined a word for it: testilying. Judges and juries generally trust police officers, especially in the absence of footage disproving their testimony. As courts reopen and convene juries, many of the same officers now confronting protesters in the street will get back on the stand.

> Defense attorneys around the country believe the practice is ubiquitous; while that belief might seem self-serving, it is borne out by footage captured on smartphones and surveillance cameras. Yet those best positioned to crack down on testilying, police chiefs and prosecutors, have done little or nothing to stop it in most of the country. Prosecutors rely on officer testimony, true or not, to secure convictions, and merely acknowledging the problem would require the government to admit that there is almost never real punishment for police perjury.

Police and DAs, the parties who do most of the investigating of police perjury, are not exactly eager to share their internal findings for reasons we can probably guess, but the article does offer one striking anecdote:

> One NYPD officer, David Grieco—commonly known as Bullethead—has been sued at least 32 times, costing the city $343,252, for civil rights violations, including excessive force and fabrication of evidence. Yet Grieco was promoted and prosecutors continued to call him to the stand long after a slew of his victims blew the whistle on his violent and lawless behavior. Judges continued to rely on his word to lock up defendants. And Grieco’s name did not appear on Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez’s long-secret list of officers with known credibility problems.
I thought the philosophy was to just build tools you want. So we have, eg systemd and OpenRC. Where one is many-tools and the other is composed of many-small-tools.

I taught a linear algebra section for Gil when I was a postdoc, will be watching this for sure.
Not that I'm advocating everyone spam him with their XFS questions, but Dave Chinner has always been helpful and responsive whenever I had informed questions for him. If you raised such a question on lkml or fsdevel directed at him, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if you (and everyone subscribed) saw a helpful response in a timely manner.
I had a severe muscle pain once, like so bad that I literally could not stand the pain. I had to hold on to someone or something to move. The doctor prescribed an opioid and it did nothing. Then he suggested I try 800 mg tylenol for arthritis and it got me to the point where I could at least walk.

Codename SCNR: A modern Web application security scanner
SCNR is a scalable DAST framework, capable of analyzing the behavior of modern web applications and web APIs, in order to evaluate their security posture — like Arachni, but much more efficient and with room for growth.

It is around 6+ times faster than Arachni, while using less bandwidth and less RAM, and also comes with more fine-grained interfaces.

No-matter the occasion, there’s an interface to suit: Ruby API, REST API, CLI, WebUI

SCNR is a replacement for good ol’ Arachni, so get started on migrating early on!

I just read the comments in the reddit thread. It seems like the sort of vague platitudes people say when they've worked with a person, regardless of their actual competence. Especially in a higher level position, people say this stuff all the time out of BS. I wouldn't take it for much.
> I'm a fan of XFS. I've used it for over a decade for all systems that don't need ZFS.

Hmm. I read the article, but now you've got me wondering: am I missing out on something by defaulting to ext4 rather than XFS?
The baseline is going up, and people are already dying due to weather extremes. A cyclic pattern that increases extremes is a legitimate cause for concern in each year it occurs.

But then a new thief is spontaneously generated by greed, stupidity or "because it seemed funny", "this person has so many gold bars, surely they won't care about me taking one" and even "it was out there, unwatched, unlocked, thought it was fine to take one". And you will never know who. Maybe you put all the obvious thugs and hooligans in jail, only for some otherwise kindly old grandma to steal some bars because of the thrill of it. Or a thief from another city in passing.

In other places around the world those things are controlled by close-knit communities where being seen stealing would spread the word like wildfire and ruin the thief's reputation (or end up in a beating), not because people is purer and immune to sin or idiocy.

It's not pessimistic nor paranoid to lock your door. All it takes is one bad apple, even if it's one in a million.
