What is she qualified for?

While it may be true that the powder-form isn't able to natively pass through the skin, one of the oldest delivery mechanisms for medical applications is via transdermal patch.
In some ways she did though, she'll likely never pay that $452 million in restitution and sure, she's in jail, but if she doesn't pay it back.. she got away with it.
Have we considered (admitted to ourselves) that we may not know what's best for them either?

To me the article reads like we're witnessing an evolution in biology, but instead of exploring the new nature of this offspring, we insist on using the previous generation's standards to measure this new branch.

We may not know exactly what it is they need, but their biology is clearly telling us that this is not it (you can measure hormonal levels if you dont actually believe what the kid is saying).
Take my upvote. That was clever.
> Rare as they may be, some people actually are writing detailed critiques of capitalism as an economic system. Good for them, even if I think they tend to be wrong more often than right. I hope they keep going.

So even if a person has a well thought out argument against capitalism, Johnson dismisses their thought automatically.

Interesting.

Most of the article focuses on how the individual doesn’t understand capitalism and can’t define it.

Fair, that’s the average person though. The average person hasn’t had the academic training or study to articulate every aspect of the economic model.

What the average person does have is experience with capitalism. They might not know what alienation means, but they’ve experienced it.

They might not know exactly what it means for their boss to make a profit off their labor, but they know they’re the ones making the company money, while not seeing profit sharing.

It’s easy to be a commentator and say “the average person doesn’t know what they’re talking about”, when the average person is just trying to make ends meet. I don’t like how Johnson is “punching down” in that respect.
Compared to rnns... maybe? The big nxn is really a killer.

Remove the human who asked the question and there is no question and therefore there is no possibility of answer.

Same reason why if you write a random number and find 5 years later that it is also the solution for some difficult math problem it does not make you first to solve it. Same reason why a million monkeys with typewriters who in a million years wrote a letter for letter copy of Snow Crash did not actually write Snow Crash.
i find playing these semantic games (you dont actually mean capitalism! other nominally capitalist nations have fixed <housing/healthcare/etc.>!) far more meaningless. everyone knows this is about the american economic system. you can mentally substitute in "corporatism" or whatever else you think is the real issue. the point of the complaints is the general malaise and economic dissatisfaction that forms today's zeitgeist; discuss that instead
I'm curious, what actually happens when you're fined some comically large amount of money? Do you just immediately declare bankruptcy and let the courts carve up your assets? Is that usually the end of that or do you still end up having your wages garnished after bankruptcy?

I own a home and moved. I rent in the new city and let my mother live in the house I own, that way I don't have to sell it. If I ever want to go back I won't have any issues doing so.
Does anyone know if her husband will be responsible for this amount? They supposedly got married in 2019, which is after the fraud but before the trial and ruling.

>Except it is now cheaper to rent than to own[1].

Real estate is entirely local, such that making broad generalizations like this is detrimental. In some markets it may be better to rent, in others it is better to buy. Regardless of the cost, availability is also a factor - in my market, you might as well buy if you are qualified, as the market for rental properties is even tighter than buying and rents have increased faster than home prices.

doesn't seem like this is a "takedown notice" of any legal kind

from the company homepage: "BrandShield’s robust technology scans the internet, analyzes potential threats and detects phishing threats, online brand abuse, TM infringements and counterfeit sales. Our experienced and skilled takedown experts remove those threats relentlessly."

If they were lawyers they probably wouldn't need to use phrasing like "experienced and skilled takedown experts"
Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Just snagged one. Can't wait to play with it.
I posted this comment last time her incarceration made the front page - will she report or flee? I'll go out on limb and say she doesn't report for prison.
I agree it's very useful to look at RNNs. Even more because attention mechanisms were already getting popular in LSTM/GRU models before the transformers paper. One of the main insights of the transformer papers is that you can do with just an attention attention and you do not need the recurrent part of the network anymore (hence the title "Attention is all you need").
To paraphrase Bo Burnham, and she still will but it’s not as fun now.

If she has $50 million squirreled away somewhere she won’t be able to spend it openly. She can be sneaky and keep a slightly comfortable life but she’ll never again have an opportunity to be openly decadent.

Debts handled, excellent health care, a little bribery perhaps, and an occasionally get away to somewhere remote, but no conspicuous consumption, which for these people seems to be more than half of the fun.

> People have recreated that core game many times with fairly trivial code

Yes, because they have something to reference. It was like Notch took a level editor and made it into the game itself. That isn't an easy thing to figure out and takes time.

> Sometimes there are just really great ideas.

Ideas are easy and usually it's really stupid ideas that turn out to be great ideas. Who would think that an FPS level editor would be a good idea? Or a text box that anyone can edit on a profile page would be popular (facebook)?

There are not great ideas, just ideas that are executed well.

Board of directors

Henry Kissinger (former United States Secretary of State);
Jim Mattis (retired Marine Corps four-star general);
George Shultz (former United States Secretary of State);
Richard Kovacevich (former CEO of Wells Fargo);
William Perry (former United States Secretary of Defense); and
William Foege (former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).

Investors

Media mogul Rupert Murdoch, who led a $5.8 million Series A in February 2005;
Venture capitalist and Draper Fisher Jurvetson partner Tim Draper, who remained an outspoken defender of Theranos at least until 2018;
Oracle Executive Chairman and founder Larry Ellison; and
National pharmacy and retail chain Walgreens.
Right, assuming players have access to the oracle text (the canonical post errata text for the card), and a copy of the comprehensive magic rules, it should be possible to deterministically determine the result of any interaction (modulo any specified randomness or opportunities for human choice).

The comprehensive rules are intended to be fully comprehensive, with only simply logic needed to connect the parts. If this has failed anywhere leaving something without a clear resolution this would be considered a defect in the comprehensive rules or the card's canonical text.

Such defects are not especially common, as they tend to get noticed before new cards or mechanics are released. This is especially true since WOTC ends up programming these mechanics into software not once but at least twice. (First for MTGO, and then again for MTG Arena's backend, and sometimes needing to program it again for the Arena's front end code.)

The need to program it into the software gives makes it much more likely than any remaining ambiguity in the Card's Oracle text or the comprehensive rules gets noticed and addressed.
Do you expect some tactical masterplan? I have no idea what I would do. I would have like 1 second to decide.

That is why it is very stupid idea, to threaten people at their property!
I do not need this. At all. Not one bit. Not for a second. It would be foolish of me to spend money on this.

Two, please!

Very cool.
Yep, also Mattis and Shultz
It seems Win98 supported 1920x1440 at least, and maybe you could do something dirty with "multiple monitors" somehow.
Well... firefox has partial support that can be enabled using layout.css.has-selector.enabled in about:config.

The problem is the spec is an unfinalised moving target right now (they've had to remove support for things that were taken out of the spec in their implementation), and when I read their tracking bug, they still have issues related to invalidation.

I imagine the priority of this will move up as the selector becomes official... https://w3c.github.io/csswg-drafts/selectors/
Try not paying alimony and see what happens. Go to jail AND continue having to pay them. No difference here.

Huh? I would say that I am more happier WFH than I was in the office. No more daily stress of driving in rush hour traffic. No more wasted hours spent commuting. Reducing my GHG output.

Get to spend more time with family/friends or personal projects.

Edit: want to add that I also finish my work in less than half an actual work day (2-3 hours). Compared to in office, the same tasks took 4-5 hrs due to constant nagging, interruptions.

Please don't dilute what she did because of who one member of her board was. She didn't just lie. She ran a con that affected people downstream who used the service. Who knows what kind of damage she caused with her fake tests. She belongs in jail and all of her money has been made through fraud. That's on her.
Detectives wear plainclothes.

These types flash a badge, mumble the words "detective" and "agency" in the same sentence, then immediately pivot to babbling about fines and jailtime before you have a chance to question their authority. It's a high-pressure sales tactic masquerading as law enforcement, without crossing the line of impersonation.

To those ends, they back down quickly when you poke back with childish questions like "wait, so you're not the police?" (If they say yes, they're in trouble.)
Huh, you're right. My apologies.

If it was as easy as declaring bankruptcy I don’t think anyone would ever receive alimony or child support.

Almost certainly not, no.

EdX's Final Tax Returns: Revenue Surges, Losses Mount, and Contributions Decline
I like this British musician named Jake Bugg. He's got a song about going to this house party at some criminal's house and one line is about a friend taking him aside and warning him, gravely, that everyone there's got a knife. It almost ruins the song as an American, because the line's just hilarious. "Everyone has a knife? What, you mean like literally any gathering of adults whatsoever that doesn't have bouncers patting people down and/or metal detectors? Everyone has a knife at the grocery store for god's sake!"

(Not literally everyone, of course, but it's entirely normal, non-threatening, and fairly common to carry a pocket knife or knife-including-multitool in the US—anywhere you go that's not screening for metal objects, some of the people there probably have knives, it's not on anyone's radar as something to be worried about. It's like being warned that everyone's wearing underwear, or something)
damn, i kind of like her now...
Someone bringing a suit will typically research things quite well and not have assumptions about core elements by the time they file. And sometimes there never was speculation at all. What do you mean "must"?

More to the point, even if you want to call it an assumption a median lawsuit is a lot more thorough than something a commenter guesses offhand as they post. The two are leagues apart whether or not you use the same word.
> You can't ringfence pension payments if by ringfence you mean just store them in a savings account. Inflation would destroy the saved money completely, so the funds have to be invested. In turn those investments have to yield enough to cover both inflation and expected investment losses, whilst still yielding enough to pay out reliably over the average expected lifespan post retirement.

Or just cut to the chase, and realize the money is only a unit of exchange, and not a store of value. This idea of a society saving/investing money to pay for retirement is just nonsense, if there won't be enough people to pay the money to for job to get done.

Ultimately, retirement is paid for by spending a fraction of the current economic output, which can't be banked.

I'd be curious to know what exactly these Pinkerton agents said, and if they flashed badges (as other commenters have suggested). My general rule is not to let anyone in who doesn't have a warrant, and I think that still works in light of this kind of tactic. But I hadn't considered the possibility that non-LEOs might fool me/my family into thinking they are LEOs, and that they might not be bound by the same rules regarding tricking someone into letting them enter their home.

Yeah, those comments calling on the hypocrisies of a crowd are really getting boring. Same thing on reddit where people call on an entire subreddit for having been wrong or having a different opinion in a different thread.

We are talking of hundreds of thousands of user, is that really surprising that we see different opinions in different threads? I don't think it's unreasonable to believe that a comment thread about Google and Android might attract an entirely different crowd than an Apple thread.

It’d be nice if a common standard somehow became widespread.

Note: It seems reactions are sort of working across platform in recent months? Not sure the latest on this.
I don't think that's the case. This is the official announcement of a product, with details on how the product works, and I doubt they'll be writing anything particularly more meaty when they proceed through various rollout stages.

The way I've understood the "announcement of an announcement" rule in the past is that it is for reports/rumors that somebody is company to release something, or a company sending a teaser for a future event where they'll announce something.

The standard has never been that the product needs to already be generally available to be on-topic. If that were the standard, when could we discuss say a new iPhone? Not when it's talked about on the big Apple stage. Or as another example consider yesterday's discussion of the changes to the Google account deletion policy. No accounts will be deleted for 9 months, was it an announcement of an announcement?
> Where do all the hardcore engineering jobs live

There is NO such thing as hardcore engineer job position that doesn't involve a lot of management. All the good engineers that get jobs are the ones who do management work as well as coding. If you cannot do this, the industry will just close its doors for you.

Can relate. I don't know how, or why, or what I did to get to the other end, but one day I woke up, and it was gone. Years of nearly crippling depression, ruined friendships, hardships at work, nights of 'considering', all finished in an instant. It was absolutely bizarre and wonderful and concerning at the same time.

Woke up and thought "alright this is stupid, I need to get stuff done" and as though it were magically manifesting out of thin air I had a normal train of thought, my emotions were mostly in check, and I had motivation that I hadn't felt in years.
