French Senate has recently approved a bill authorising remote activation of smartphones’ real-time geolocation, cameras, and microphones [1].

Obviously without informing owners.

And while it is, obviously, only to be used to fight against terrorism, organised crime and delinquency, well… let’s just say that France has a history of such powers getting extrajudicially abused, by governments and individuals alike.

Interesting. First time I've heard it mentioned that way.

My viewpoint at the time was that the 3d craze in tvs' was more due to manufacturers looking for the next big thing to compete with each other, and Avatar had come out recently and was doing well. Thus "let's add 3d" and every other kitchen sink / feature they could find. Thus smart tv's now, etc.
It happened when it didn't ask for permission. He could've removed himself (and I suppose he eventually did) but I imagine that, as a joke, he was probably added as mod to thousands of subs, and couldn't be arsed to remove himself from all of them.

> In fact, neuroscience shows that the act of seeking itself, rather than the goals we realize, is key to satisfaction.

This contradicts the title. It just says that we need goals to feel happy. Meaningful action is rewarding in itself.

If you do not have goals is probably because you have given away hope, and you are top miserable.

But the title seems to imply that you need more money or equivalent rewards to be happy. I am sure that some people is like that, but that people are not necessarily mentally healthy individuals.
If receiving grant funding for example, when the funding requires maintaining a timesheet then I do so.

For example, it helps to attribute effort to different phases of the work against plans and expectations.

I simply try to minimise the timesheeting effort and don't treat it as spying or lack of trust but to support stats and planning as above. It's a datastream!
I've had to do it, and always loathed it.

In my current job it's also a thing, and I try to be honest. That also means writing the hours I need to write hours (and other stuff, like checking the intranet for news).

In a previous job I had the situation where each project manager would approve my hours individually, and none of them were willing to accept any overhead. I was doing 5 projects at the same time. That lead to burnout on my part.

Now I have only one fulltime project and some side gigs (coaching a junior developer).

I have been thinking that most cultures before roughly the 18th century were not puritan at all, at least in some shape or form. For instance I have been reading muslim poets who made fairly erotic poems, same for India. Now America is an outlier here, it’s actually the place were puritans went.

It was only in the age of full on colonization that you see the puritan groups forming (Salafists for instance rise in the 19th century) and it’s a similar mechanism at work in India.

Not sure the background on that, would love to have more insight how the history of morals developed. Maybe at some point it became a tool to keep people in check?
Anecdotal but they did have a pretty active team around the time identifying CP and terrorist beheading type videos/images. They did have a pretty big issue with terrorist orgs using Twitter, would not surprise me CP made its way there.
That "80% of millionaires are first generation" stat is a bit misleading - most of those millionaires are older folk who have reached that status via retirement savings and the explosion in real estate. Those people are not the people being discussed here.
Great stuff. Started at #1 - am waiting for my Wavestation keyboard keygen to come up. I can't believe I paid with a card to a well-cool site based in Albania (warez.al? something like that): they delivered and I became an irregular customer.

But they are selling the premium tier for $150. It's the same set of headphones.

It would be as if Apple sold you one computer for $1,000, but the exact same computer in a different case for $2,000, with the only difference being they put a bunch of malware on the first one so it runs slower.

That's not "re-use design and manufacturing processes for multiple segments", it's intentionally breaking half the product line to sell at a lower price.

You can outright disable transcoding. That’s a checkbox in the server option.

They do out of the box. Never had an issue with either transcoding disabled. If you have properly configured the source content, Jellyfin is just a passthrough for Kodi and content is directly accessed using the network share.
Can you explain more? I am using Infuse with nfs mounted shares and have been pretty happy. Anthing to gain from jellyfin?
The instrumentation used does look groundbreaking and amazingly sensitive to benzene (also other trace toxins when targeted), calibration with known reference material looks excellent, with good correlation to established GC-MS, but there may not be complete data on possible false positive responses compared to GC-MS.

I've been a fan of Cavity Ring-Down for a couple decades, this demo might help bring the technique into some mainstream laboratories.

Wouldn't mind one of their units on the bench myself.

Also people should be aware benzene is a natural hydrocarbon found in various percentage amounts in oil reservoirs, much more present in the produced crude oil than the crude natual gas, but also often present in small amounts within the refined propane, butane, and other liquified petroleum gas products.

Mainly benzene is also present in almost all gasoline, but limited to 0.5% by volume since the clean air act of 1990.

> it's not about being evil, it's about economy

Instead of justifying the status quo, I think we would all benefit if we retired the concept of an economy that incentivizes companies to act evil in order to succeed in it.

Edit: 'evil' is a loaded word. I'm generally referring to profit being the only measure of success. I for one would like to see other KPIs enforced by government institutions, such as 'environmental impact' or 'human benefit'.
This seems like a classic case of criti-hype,

Facebook is a master of criti-hype, in that it has convinced many people that it holds the secret dangerous knobs that control human behaviour.

I have to fill in a time sheet at work.

This is because in the UK companies can claim tax back if they spent it on R&D. (Software engineering salaries are subsidised in the UK, yes.) The timesheets are to support that.

My employer only cares that I log the correct number of hours worked against each code. They don’t care that I log them in the right order.

I usually fill in my timesheet once a day, based on which meetings I attended, and which tickets I’ve been working on.

I'm not sure what to say. Unless this is a recent change in my experience it does not work as intended. I spent a lot of time playing with the various transcoding settings and per user settings and direct path access or the regular way of accessing files.

I'm happy it worked for you. I have specific content jellyfin doesn't work with where Kodi is fine and I am just sharing my experience with this software package.
Someone else in the comments here suggested the „Infuse“ app on iOS. It can use multiple backends including jellyfin, plex, but also sftp etc. Cannot speak for its daily use as I just installed it myself, but looks good on the first glance.
Proxying DNS is very sensible for 99.99% of users of Private Relay who don’t know a damn thing about DNS. Proxying HTTP traffic but then broadcasting all domains you connect to in clear text on port 53 so that your ISP could scoop them all up would be very stupid.

One could argue for an option to use one’s own DoH server of choice, but Apple isn’t known for giving options to the 0.01%.

Also, if you don’t trust their DNS (or their DNS provider of choice under the hood), why would you trust your HTTP traffic with them anyway?

Including the bit that fired the original event.

Event loops have happened in every event driven system I’ve ever encountered. The original proponents having sworn that nothing like that would happen, and yet it did.

Code is a collaboration. Everyone is putting their ideas into it. And some days our best ideas aren’t very good. Systems that require constant vigilance always unravel in the end, and event based systems require constant vigilance.

With an event system, if the loop happens infrequently enough, it will only result in a slight decrease in throughput of the system, and so the system will continue to work for hours, days, even weeks. And once a bug has survived for more than a few weeks it becomes difficult to triage.

That's what I like about Plasma. Unlike GNOME it is designed to be used by actual human beings who actually use computers to do actual work, not some imagined user and use case by some high-on-their-own-farts designer.

It is consequently very customizable so you can make it work better for how you work, instead of how some GNOME dev thinks you should work. It also didn't take 15 years of complaints to get thumbnails in Dolphin.

From the link:
The first attack, ConditionalExhaust, entails creating "two-faced" transactions that are computationally intensive only when executed by block creators that cannot include them in a block, while they are very simple & pay a low amount of fees in all other cases.
We test ConditionalExhaust on a local testnet & show that with just 140 transactions costing at most $770, an attacker exhausts a victim's resources to the point where it cannot include any transaction in its blocks, thereby severely compromising the system's liveness.

The second attack, MemPurge, allows evicts honest transactions from a victim's mempool. Blockchain nodes save transactions in a size-limited database called the mempool.
When the limit is reached, an existing transaction may be evicted in favor of a new & better paying one.
MemPurge allows an attacker to send chains that are 65 transactions long, but which at the worst case require paying for just a single transaction, meaning that evicting transactions becomes considerably cheaper.
This was my dilemma. Infuse is definitely better. However, if I’m paying to use a proprietary front end, I may as well just buy the software that natively works together.

Infuse also does not support multi profiles on Apple TV. Which makes it essentially useless for multi-user devices.

OP says 'per se' means 'by itself'. But in this case (the alphabet song) it makes more sense for 'per se' to have it's other meaning: 'as such'. That is, the letter means the same as 'and'.

Yeah. Just found out that it doesn’t even play anything from my jellyfin without buying the premium version. It lists all the things, but as soon as I want to play anything it asks for the InApp Purchase. Not sure what’s going on there, but I don’t like it.
Thanks for the link, which is helpful.

1. Unfalsifiable, ipse dixit proclamations by church "overseers," i.e., bishops (Greek: ἐπίσκοπος, episkopos, whence English's episcopal) aren't persuasive.

Long ago I read translations of the surviving writings of some of the earliest church fathers — such as in the page you linked. I was struck by the distinct impression that the first bishops essentially bootstrapped themselves into authority — they peremptorily announced:

- that they were successors of the Apostles; and

- that their apostolic succession entitled them to be in charge.

(EDIT: This foreshadowed, by some 1,700 years, the U.S. Supreme Court's bootstrapped declaration that judges have the power to decide the constitutionality of congressional legislation, in Marbury vs. Madison, where Chief Justice John Marshall famously said that in case of conflicting statutory- and constitutional provisions, "It is emphatically the province and duty of the judicial department to say what the law is. ...")

And these first bishops persuaded their (self-selected?) flocks to acknowledge their authority; eventually, what started out as an arguable heresy on the part of these "overseers" became carved in stone as a core principle of church governance. [0]

2. The church fathers relied extensively on the letters of Paul, né Saul, of Tarsus. Recall that Saul/Paul started out as a fiery persecutor of Christians — then suddenly "flipped" and became equally zealous preaching his version of Christianity.

And remember that Paul preached what he claimed to be his own gospel, not received from any man, but directly from Jesus himself, whom he had never met in life — if Paul had known Jesus before the latter's execution, he surely would have trumpeted the fact, in his Epistle to the Galatians and elsewhere.

A hospital is more interested in short-term changes in pressure than it is the actual number. A finger sensor will definitely detect when someonez's pressure crashes or rapidly elevates.
