firmware usually explicitly sandbox Linux on a corner of the chip (the “application cores”), preventing it taking any meaningful role in managing and securing the platform. On an Android phone, Linux is effectively an application runtime.

The reason Linux is sandboxed into a corner of the system on an Android phone is because the phone is more interested in not trusting you than it is not trusting the SIM chip's processor, cellular radio, etc.

Google don't want you:

* getting unrestricted access to digital content they or others sell and make available on the platform. Hollywood won't let them sell movies on Play Store if Google can't guarantee you won't be able to make a copy of the files on the device, or output HDMI to a recording device. Ditto for Netflix. Ditto for record companies/RIAA. Ditto for magazines and newspapers. The list goes on. Your smartphone, no matter what anyone tells you otherwise, is primarily designed as a media consumption device. Its secondary purpose is a cloud services consumption device (Google or Apple) and last on the list is "a device for you to use however you want." For example, on iOS, the Files app and any file save dialog always defaulting to your iCloud folder, and the inability to set a default save location, is not even remotely an accident. Apple forces you to, every single time, select somewhere else if you don't want to save to iCloud.

* disabling the methods they use to track you or opting out of the data collection they perform wholescale and continuously.

* disabling the methods application publishers use to track and collect data about you.
But it does not appear to have spilled over at the wet market. The Chinese CDC published a paper stating it was just a super spreader event. Plus the samples were taken way too long after the virus has been spreading. The market just reflects sampling bias.

Uninteresting lawyer chiseling. This is all about the making the author feel "smart" by selective (mis)interpretation of ambiguous conditions, absent information, and rules not present.

1: "In" a geographic area may or may not be defined as including or excluding a particular altitude. For example, in the US, owners only own up to 500 ft AGL in Class G airspace.

2: Some jurisdictions decide a person in a boat over someone's land isn't trespassing, while standing on the bottom of the land is.

3: What is the definition of a "vehicle"? Is use or capability of occupants definitive of vehicular status? Does it require a motor? Must it be a type requiring government registration?

Unique furin cleavage sites are very common in coronaviruses (see below paper). In fact, one of the papers linked from the intercept article you posted even mentions HCoV-HKU1 which also has a unique furin cleavage site at s1/s2.

I found all of this in about 10 minutes of googling and 15 minutes of reading. Which means I’m as qualified to weigh in on the subject as anyone else here now.
Come on they’re dumping metric tons of industrial waste into the oceans every day but here we are sorting cans from cardboard. It’s just virtue signaling. It’s totally meaningless.

That it’s now law is just a mind game. They get you to habitually say yes to a series of nonsense tasks and arbitrary rules so later you don’t question when they march your children off to a pointless war
I did one where it took them a week to get back to me with, "not enough documentation" when documentation wasn't even a requirement and I did do documentation- just not enough. I suspect they just didn't like my choice of Perl- don't give me a choice then :)
At the time, it was absolutely misinformation. That it may actually be true doesn’t make it less so.
If it were fairly controversial, why are you citing a paper in PNAS, the Journal Of Last Refuge for shitty science?

The only benefit of being a member of the academy of sciences is that you can dump into PNAS whatever hot trash you couldn't sell to any other journal, because they almost never reject papers from members.

It happened while I was at music college. One of our lecturers was invited to speak and they wanted some background music so asked us to play. Noone made a list of who was playing which is why I can remember that I was there and maaaaaaybe know who the drummer was and that’s about it. Anyhow I’m not trying to identify anything I was just using it as an example of the kind of obscure nonsense that happens a lot.
I didn’t look at their implementation, but in general, strings don’t have to be aligned so you can only peek one byte at a time looking for the end, besides not wanting to annoy valgrind and other similar UB detection tools by reading past the end of the string.
My recollection is closer to GP's than to yours, fwiw. Not exactly the same, but I do recall that a lot of the pushback from the left was because every publication on the right was busy hitching the "it originated as a lab-modified virus" motte to the "it was intentionally released/it was a bioweapon" bailey.
Well, yes, but I also need to take account of velocity and rotation too.

I don't see that particular flow in the manual, and of course everything should be FULLCAPS.

> There absolutely, 100% was complete denial, all originating on the political left, that a leak from a lab in China was a possibility. No confusion about intentional vs accidental - total denial of the possibility in any way shape or form. Suggesting it was possible, much less plausible or even likely, was labeled racist.

You are ignoring a few simple facts here.

1. The left doesn't congregate and worship at the cult of personality like the right does.

2. The first cases were in Wuhan. The right/Trumpets immediately blamed China. And this blame had exactly zero to do with any facts at the time. And in blaming China, hate crimes against all Asians increased dramatically, not even just Chinese.

3. It wasn't being called racist just saying it. It was racist being racists. Most people admitted it was a possibility, but definitely not confirmed in any way

The fact of the matter is it was turned into a political talking point.

The right says "IT IS THIS WAY BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I BELIEVE AND IF YOU DON'T AGREE YOU ARE RADICAL LEFT"

The left says "We can't say that yet"

The seller provided a mechanism for letting buyers share notes about the quality of the product. This particular buyer chose to ignore those notes, and bought it despite warnings not to. That's definitely the buyer's problem.

While Twitter, a private company, censored posts, Biden's White House said that they wouldn't rule out any possibility, including the virus being leaked on purpose.

He also ordered US spy agencies to do an investigation into the lab leak hypothesis.

"The left" wasn't denying anything. It just wasn't willing to jump to conclusions prematurely. Trying to rebrand it as "The China Virus" was a transparent attempt to focus blame and hate in a particular direction.
The largest group of fatalities in my friend/family group were late in the delta wave, right before it faded out and got replaced by omicron.
The point is that Fauci and the CDC lied to the public about the efficacy of masks, even if they lied with "good" intentions. They simply could've explained that supplies were low and asked people not to hoard them. Instead they lied (one of many times) and acted surprised when people started distrusting them.
Yeah... Your opinion is unpopular

(Sorry, but I can't stand Apple hardware... I find it very crappy)
It's not that hard. You have to understand a "park" is usually primarily some pseudo-preserve of nature, with varying degrees of permitted human recreational uses. That is what a "park" actually means.

Users of parks generally know there will be varying usage rules for the park based on the park. But generally speaking, things that will destroy the "natural perserved" aspects, things that will disrupt other people using the park, aren't allowed.

And, like moderation, if you don't understand the context of what a park is in society, you should either go there with someone that does, ask the authorities in charge of the park, or DON'T GO.

So the answer to the question is "what activities are supported by the park, do you know other people that use those implements there without controversy".

You socially interact to know. If it is a grey area, ask either someone that may know, or the authorities.

This isn't Zeno's paradoxes. You aren't asking if the vehicle is every technically being used at the park because the atoms are repelled by the electromagnetic force and things never actually touch each other.

It isn't something that needs to be solved philosophically. There are people with authoritative knowledge, and you ask them the questions, and they give a "yes or no". And you either obey their judgement, or you break the rules.

If the AI (because this HAS to be about AI, why else is this dribble here) can't understand the context, it won't effectively moderate.
Last two jobs I interviewed at give me take-home tests that took 8 hours to complete each.

...but both paid me a great amount of money to complete them so I’m not complaining at all.

Paid take-homes are definitely my favorite way to interview. The process doesn’t scale past 100 or so hires but if your company hasn’t hit that point yet I recommend it.
Sorry, not going to do the “your cite doesn’t count because I don’t like some ineffable thing about it” game.

There’s a scientific claim in there; I will freely admit that I don’t know enough about viral genetics to have a valid opinion about it. What I do know is that people disagree about the implication of the furin cleavage site and it’s poor form not to acknowledge that.
What can they realistically check?

I see two data points they could have: time when the template was downloaded (assuming it’s a unique link only you can access, and you didn’t download it > once/all downloads are logged) or emailed, and the time it was submitted.

All other time stamps can be spoofed.
Agreed, anecdotes don't have too much meaning. But we do have pretty good statistics to back up the effectiveness of the vaccines.
The host CPU is faster, which lowers access latency, and modern machines have large numbers of generally idle cores. It also reduces the cost of the drive.

Meanwhile you could also have drives with offload engines, in the same way that some network cards have offload engines and some don't. But the ones that do are more expensive.
I had the same experience.

I remember going to a friends house and using their computer, and it took several minutes to boot, and even after it reached the desktop it still took more time for things to become responsive. Opening any program took at least 10 seconds, possibly more.

Those old HDDs could only reach low double digit IOPS, so opening a program would cause the entire system to become unresponsive until it was loaded!

Modern SSDs are massively faster, and stay fast even when heavily used! Some of the modern SSDs are even faster when lots of operations are queued up!

The point of the exercise is to require you to make decisions under uncertain conditions with limited (or next to no) information.

You don't know what jurisdiction. You don't know what airspace rules apply. "Vehicle" has its common-usage definition. (Which is different for different people, judgung by the comments here.)

BTW, the vast, vast majority of real decisions are made under uncertainty. Welcome to the real world.
Same here. I looked at the intent of the rule given the context. Rules are enforced by humans not robots and are meaningless without context.

When you do try to enforce rules literally, you end up with kids being expelled because they brought an action figure to school, or teenagers being executed because they fell into a flower bed.
Heh, I've not any one talk about AV and things like the smart screen filter.

120 interviews over the 2021 hiring boom and got nothing? I must say, this is quite out of line with most developer experiences in that time period. What area do you work in?
Interestingly, some people added others that weren't explicit in the rule. For example, the person riding a skateboard was considered a violation by roughly twice as many people as the person carrying one, despite both being identical on the "is a vehicle" and "in the park" axes. I suppose unless someone's definition of vehicle depends on it being in use.
Like a commit hash?
Trump did use the terms "Kung Flu" & "China Virus". That kinda sums up his capacity to handle the crisis. It felt very much like the initial solution was to just blame China so much it'd magically go away by Easter. This rhetoric did have a negative impact on Asian communities.

Reality is there is still no definitive evidence of a lab leak and China is never going to admit to it. Trump's racist finger pointing didn't actually tangibly help US citizens. Even if he did prove it was China's fault, what was he going to do? Go to war with China? Cutoff trade our economy is inextricably tied to? It felt very much like a dog chasing a car. The dog has no clue what it'd do if it actually caught the car.
I did get a $30 gift card for one take home assessment which was a nice token. Better than nothing I suppose. They also had a timed coderpad which was nice in the sense I knew all other candidates would be evaluated the same.

But in the end, they rejected my project though with no feedback. Can't win.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing otherwise smart people that job interviews are quantitative, unbiased processes rather than emotional, biased crapshoots.
So is a dissolving pill capsule, which is a vehicle for delivering medicine, allowed in the park?!

I get what the author hopes to do, but it’s really a bad go at it.

Although perhaps that’s because arguing a losing position is hard.
I don’t do them period. If you’re going to take my time, burn an engineer hour as well to show i’m a serious candidate.
What if the rule was created after the tank was already in the park? There was no information given on how the tank was transported to the park, and you're creating a violation based off a hypothetical.

Is that this one?

An arrest warrant was issued for Yevgeny Prigozhin for "armed mutiny". He may not have criticized Putin directly and instead blamed the military, but he broke too many taboos. The concerns now are:

1. Does Wagner suspend duties of all of their PMCs?

2. Is Prigozhin going into hiding in Ukraine?

3. Putin is paranoid and hiding in the Ural's bunker. How could Prigozhin hope to begin without assistance from Putin's inner circle? We're talking about the food guy not some Russian army general with 300 award badges.
The danger is that a normal driver would start breaking. But we don't know what the fsd would do so the breaking happened far too late.

This should not be on the roads. How is this permitted. This will kill someone.
Bern Switzerland comes to mind.
If you believe that the spirit of rules is more important than the text, then those people were obeying the spirit of the rule to not include exceptions, not the text.
Yep. They evaluate the ability to make sound decisions while in tense situations. I don't want to hire people who implode with a bit of pressure.
the first quote is claiming an absence of evidence, not evidence of absence.

we don’t really know which information actually was gathered here (it could literally be zero and that sentence would still be true), so there’s no way to turn that sentence into evidence of anything. it’s fairly meaningless.

I've seen some microinverters with multiple inputs. This one has four inputs allowing 4 panels: https://www.vevor.com/grid-tie-solar-inverter-c_10762/solar-...

Additionally: microinverters can support higher voltages, so you can just hook them up in series. It's also possible to use an adapter to hook them up in parallel.

Is it all an elaborate excuse to pull the Russian army back from Ukraine while saving face? It's interesting to think what Prigozhin endgame is. Surely everyone important would have left Moscow by now. He hasn't incited the populace to support him. Will they all march on Moscow, get rounded up and executed or go out with a bang vs foot soldiers?
You clearly didn't understand. It's mostly not able how easy or not you found it to apply the rule, it was about how whatever you decided was actually quite different from other people. In fact, you finding it very clear makes the point apply even more.
It depends, fonts sucked bad in windows those days.
You're so 2013... Nobody takes home assessments now. Why bother, there are

1) plenty of companies who do not require that
2) those who require do not respect those who spend time on these assessments
3) even if you post about this everywhere, there is a very small chance you can change anything

There are other job search hacks out there that work x100 better than assessments. Can't share them for obvious reasons

I wonder why there isn't more discussion of this on HN; a mutiny by Russia's largest mercenary company is a significant event that could have a big effect on the world, given Russia's ongoing war in Ukraine. It's also not a very politically sensitive topic.
I try my hardest to design practical interviews when hiring. It takes time, but the results are worth it. For example, if you're an Ops style person, you would be SSHing onto a server or troubleshooting a configuration management system.

Platforms like Woven do this automatically, but they miss the mark. A good half (if not more) of the value is observing the candidate working through the problem and responding to collaborative feedback, not in actually solving the technical issue in question.
No the instructions are clear. Figuring out where the park is just isn't part of the exercise. In fact, by the letter of the rules, it's impossible to find out. Pick any definition of "local jurisdiction" you want and you still don't know where the park is. It is not necessarily in that jurisdiction (or out of it either). It's not necessarily even on earth or in this universe either.

Ok, so? This is inference from a bunch of connected but circumstantial evidence.

Interesting you just ignored the direct quote I gave of Fauci asking the NIH to put it down.

I'm pretty sure Twitter had pressure from the Virality Project which worked with Stanford and federal agencies so I think it's disingenuous to act as if they weren't denying anything or trying to play it down.

I've been wondering if I should just use chatgpt or copilot for take home assessments now.
I responded to bs about so-called animal suffering. The logics is simple: if we have lab-grown meat than there is a probability that the owner of the lab starts lobbying refusal of eating animals somehow. We live in a world of feelings (SJW, metoo, *gate) so every time I meet such discussion in a lab-grown meat topics I feel an urge to remind about possible suffering of butchers.
The project is still early in its development. Spaced repetition is something that has been recommended to me and has already been planned for the project from the beginning.

The current flashcard implementation is not what it is intended to be in its final stage - it’s more of a showcase of initial functionality and a proving ground for building upon what other projects (like Anki) already offer.

Anki web is an option, but the Anki project as a whole can be daunting to new non-technical users with the variety of implementations it has. Scholarsome is intended to be simpler to use for these users while still offering more powerful study tools.
(for those who are not RISCV people a 'hartid' is a cpu register unique to each core that identifies it)

(to the implementer) it's worth noting that hartids are not guaranteed to be contiguous - one is guaranteed to be 0 - the rest will all be different, bot not necessarily 0,1,2,3,4,5....

It's to handle things like this: Suppose I have a board with 4 CPU chips on it, each chip has N CPUs on it (N might be variable, sometimes it's 2, 3, 4 - might depend on yield or on which chips you chose to put on the board (the cheap 2 core version or the expensive 8 core one). Each chip has some pins that indicate what some of the upper bits of the hartid, internally the various CPUs within the chip will set some low bits of their hartids. If I'm a chip designer who wants to make 256 core chips I'll reserve 8 bits for the lower bits and route the external chip pins to bits above that.

My point though don't depend on hartids being contiguous
