Not a lawyer. It may not improve chances directly except in two regards: 1) Having a US employer with US salary would make it a little easier to satisfy some criteria (e.g., high salary in eb1a), and 2) Changing the status from one category to a green card is easier to do in the US through an adjustment of status where you can continue to work in the US based on an existing status (e.g., H1B, O1, L1, etc.). If you do everything from outside the US, you need to go through the consular processing route, which can take a year or more.

"and it'd be impossible to impose any without the kind of extreme restrictions of a totalitarian regime."

Surely china would fall under that statement from OP's perspective.
That mostly only makes the number of users to fall if new people stop coming at some point. To some non-stablished service, people stopping to come is death.
> Depending on the costs, 600,000 euros a month is pretty good even if it doesn't last forever.

What? 600k euro per MONTH is like you can retire forever in one year. That would be 7mm euro. More than like what most people make during their entire life.

But of course they probably made that in revenue, not profit. Still, I bet they are in a pretty good spot to create a new product, company, etc and with a nice cash reserve if they want to retire.

Btw, according to the article they still keep their old customers, so not like the service has being completely shut down. It's just that they can't take new customers, so at some point they should have pretty low revenue, but maybe they still have a fair amount per month like 100~200k with a super reduced team.
I'll just leave some facts here since you won't say if you think we are on the right track or not.

The Romans were no slouches, they put their resources to work in smart ways that modern cultures can't keep up to.

One example: Roman concrete - still going strong after 2000 years. Modern concrete is lucky to last more than 150-200 years.

Another example: Water and sewerage reticulation - Roman water supplies and sewerage systems are still at work after 2000 years. It's only about 140-150 years ago that New York reached a comparable level of water and sewerage works to those in Rome.

One word: Priorities. Different peoples have different priorities as to what is important in a culture. Just because Roman priorities were different to ours doesn't mean their priorities were not as good as ours.
Well yes, it makes sense that one could just solve this problem however they choose, whether that be through the programming language of their choice or pen and paper. The whole point of the article is to purposefully restrict the use of external tools and see if it can be done wholly within the native SQL environment.
Well, at least we can trust the government to patch the hole, compensate the people affected, and improve their security for 3rd party providers from here on out.

I get asked this question a lot — I help maintain redux-saga.

I recently gave a talk where this question came up: https://youtu.be/uRbqLGj_6mI?t=2166

I’ve also imposed generators on a lot of colleagues.

I think they are mostly misunderstood and potentially in the realm of being “magical” — at least on the surface.

The reality is they are syntactic sugar on top of functions with recursive switch statements where each case is a yield point.

They aren’t that hard to grok — the syntax is mind bending. Having code that looks synchronous but behaves asynchronous is “magical.”

I think it does come down to that because everyone loves async/await even tho that’s just sugar on generators where each yield must be a promise.
It's most probably keychain.
We have updated the phrasing to make it more clear.
What are these 'easy steps'?
They sort of do though.

Cars, for the most part, follow the road and the direction they're already going. They (usually) signal if they're about to make changes. And to be safe, we've built an arrangement that they only travel on these specific paths at specific speeds, modifying their speed to match the other cars they might hit.

The challenge with satellites is that steering is hard and very limited. And they don't have brakes they can slam to come to a stop if they need to suddenly avoid a collision.
Reminds me of the time when the MyQ garage opener back-end went down.

I got locked out of my house for about 4 hours.

I set up a whole Mac-mini home assistant thing totally local.

Then I lost my phone and I couldn’t get in to the house to even call it. Thankfully it was just in my wife’s car and she came home with it.

Now there is a physical key under a rock.

> What benefits do VPNs bring over just HTTPS?

Doxxing/blackmail protection.

If a few people collude to secure moderator positions at different sites and each gains access to IP logs (or someone just bruteforces/exploits the site and dumps logs), anybody can be outed across those sites-- the adversary has effectively compromised the server and can map page accesses directly to your IP.

They don't break HTTPS, they break the weaker link-- the trust of the server owner.

The next step is gaining access to the VPN provider's logs (they don't keep any, right? Right?). They all keep logs. Even if they say they don't, assume they do. Nobody is held accountable for lying about it.

Again, not breaking HTTPS, but breaking the weaker link-- an unscrupulous VPN owner already exploiting the trust of you, the customer.

Tor is the only "safe" way to be anonymous, but even that is dead through fingerprinting, gatekeeping and forced Javascript enabling.

The problem is that VC doesn't want to build a successful business, they want to build a profitable exit strategy. They want an IPO or acquisition that nets huge amounts of cash.

Diligently creating a business which turns a healthy profit for a fair exchange with the customer is less profitable than developing a large customer base that could be sold to someone.

Say what you will about the big players... there is no exit strategy. They are in the endgame.

Those interested in the history of scientific thought might enjoy a great book by Arthur Koestler called "The Sleepwalkers", accessible, readable and well-written. It's also endorsed by modern philosopher John Gray as a precursor to (and a better book than) Kuhn's "The Structure of Scientific Revolutions".
Whoops, I should have been more clear. When I said "It's all very unoptimized and dynamic QMLScript" I meant just the file `Flex.qml`. I'm sure the Qt C++ bindings are fast and great, but check out the `updatePositions` function in `Flex.qml`[1]. This unoptimized and dynamic QMLScript gets ran every time a flex item's width, height, or children change. I imagine if that QMLScript was given types then at least that QMLScript compiler could generate some C++ for it, but right now there are no types so I doubt there is any efficient C++ generated for this script.

On the web it's common to animate the size of flexbox items with CSS animations. These animations are entirely implemented by the browser, and I imagine much of it is even GPU accelerated. No JavaScript is executed for this on the browser. But with this library, you would be running the `Flex.qml`'s `updatePositions` function every frame of the animation. Isn't that wasteful when compared to how flexbox works in the browser? It seems like a browser would be much faster at computing layout for flexbox elements than this, especially when that flexbox's size is being animated with CSS animations.

I used it plenty at the University to access research articles (sci hub). There are other use cases that go beyond the usual stuff that government try to monitor by serving exit nodes, or doing correlation attacks. Anyway, even if you were a terrorist, using your would be better than not using it. There are probably other solutions that they implement, sure.
Sounds like you were just thrown off kilter by your reaction to what you had just read and are discussing with emotion.

I am not quite a prison abolitionist but I am troubled by the same point. Punishment inflicted on an offender is transitive in its pain. Even if suffering is righteously deserved it is shared by innocent people with the capacity to love the wretched. Even if one does not wish to grant humanity to a criminal for his sake, it seems necessary for ours.

Is this legislation likely to land? I mean I'd expect all relevant vendors to drop the UK than to pick up so much liability and be expected to hold it world wide.

Apple told the US to suck lemons why would it kowtow to the UK.
My impression as well. Though I'm biased, because it's also the case for me specifically, so I tend to see the world through that same lens.

In my case, I didn't give up social media entirely, but mostly shifted back to "web forums", which also seem to be experiencing some sort of renaissance (another data point). They have more of a local/semi-closed community feeling, as opposed to the "wide open sea" of major social media.

I consider HN to be one of those "forums", although it's more a bit of a hybrid between the two worlds, and of course it has been existing all along.

Actual stimulation is much more limited than the half life of the substance would suggest, as it is with most other stimulant drugs.

Even if much of the substance remains unchanged by the liver the stimulation effect is front loaded. After a short time, typically 2-3 hours, physiological stimulation decreases rapidly unless even more stimulant is added.
The police can do legal wiretaps because it is a tremendous help to get the job done.

Yeah it's very weird, here in Europe the SE is a lot more expensive. Here in Spain it's €559 which is much more $ to € markup than any of the other models.

I don't think it's that interesting a model either because it ignores the last 5 years of innovations like bezelless phones. For €349 you can get a nice midrange Android which does have a bezelless screen, fingerprint in display, oled display and often even a 3.5mm jack.

Sure it's not as fast but that's one one thing I care less about, if I need fast I'll use my computers. The phone is just for on the road.
You're insufferable.

The definition for the word encumbrance is literally the opening line and is the exact issue at hand that you refuse to address.

To quote it:

"Encumbrance means any charge, claim, community property interest, pledge, condition, equitable interest, lien (statutory or other), option, security interest, mortgage, easement, encroachment, right of way, right of first refusal, or restriction of any kind, including any restriction on use, voting, transfer, receipt of income or exercise of any other attribute of ownership."

How does AAVE or any other smart contracts ensure there are no outside encumbrances?

It has to use human third parties and pay those fees, on top of the SC fees.

Really, you're just proving to me that folks promoting this garbage are childish, ignorant and baseleslly arrogant.

And BTW, You are the one running in circles. I've been asking you the same question without getting an answer for several comments now...

I reviewed your CV as well. I am a former programmer/analyst/architect, now an IT director. I have reviewed a lot of CVs as a hiring manager. I agree with the feedback you have already received. Here are some additional thoughts.

You have listed a lot of experience, mainly focusing on technical skills. When I review a CV I focus more on the last 5 or 10 years than roles from 30 years ago (unless I'm looking for someone to do COBOL maintenance). I suggest providing more information about experience in the last 5 or 10 years. I wouldn't worry too much about listing specific projects/assignments before that.

Your CV emphasizes your technical skills, but doesn't provide much insight into other skills. Perhaps for some of your recent projects you could highlight other ways in which you contributed to a successful outcome. Were you the lead developer? Did you interact with users - maybe in an agile process? What aspects of the software development life cycle were you responsible for?

So, based on your current CV, I might suggest a some entries like these:

Subtlety Communications, April 2022 - December 2022

- Vulnerability Mitigation Project

Lead developer responsible for analyzing vulnerability reports, identifying appropriate mitigation, implementing and testing mitigation. Reported to CISO. Javascript, React.

- Live Chat Application

Senior member of agile application development team responsible for front-end development. Automated generation of Docker config files to improve CI/CD processes. Docker, Typescript, React.
Yeah I completely agree. My question was more about practice than in theory.

The requirements seem very subjective (define extraordinary). And so I wanted to know what are some real requirements/conditions the committee uses in real life for people who have already got O-1s.

When we fly drones especially BVLOS operations we sometimes encounter some GNSS anomalies, that in some cases we just cancel the mission that day and the next day it’s with no issues. Could it be that’s the reason? Who knows, but it might be an issue later with crewed drones.

That is completely different definition of HF. And if they use radio (lower latency than fiber, in theory and in right circumstances ), it is somewhere between SHF and EHF (C through V in the IEEE nomenclature), ie. what sane person would informally call “microwave”, not HF.
I was thinking about this, what really started the industrial revolution? I think the aeolipile, like other contraptions was just seen as a toy. Could it be that the Newcomen engine proved that real value and work could be done using machines in this way? Maybe just knowing that it was possible after being demonstrated by the Newcomen engine really kicked it off rather than some nebulous societal conditions.

LEO is big, but only a few orbits are desirable and all circular orbits at the same altitude cross twice, by definition. It’s like slot cars, but much lower probability of an “intersection event.”

That’s fun! Of course, we do already have something analogous to FAA altitude separations. But that requires everyone everywhere to cooperate in real-time, and mandates some degree of maneuverability. I guess orbital decay is only a concern for aircraft when they aren’t trying to land.

What you have to watch out for is the eventual rise of the Kessler Cult, who (according to me) will seek to block all access to space intentionally ;)
This is a very weird article. It should have been trivial to argue against Turner's tweet, because obviously a board game is not real economics.

I think the pandemic has taught us that our infrastructure is not well designed to prevent the spread of disease, and that investment in this area can help prevent future pandemics. We used to treat people getting sick as a normal course of life, but obviously people are getting sick from somewhere. The more we can do to prevent that the better quality of life people will have. And more importantly, the harder it will be for potential pandemics to take off. For example we can do a lot to improve building ventilation, which would help reduce transmission of airborne disease like covid.

They wouldn't expect any redundancy in an alarm system monitoring centre? Also there's a very brief instance in time where such a system would not be basically digital.

Having a doorbell that fails because someone made a typo in a DNS entry (or whatever it is this time) is silly and people have every right to be angry. Though it would help if they direct some of that anger towards themselves for subjecting themselves to a doorbell that they don't control and sends surveillance on its immediate surrounding to some third party (who may send it back, for a price).
To me the Chinese Room thought experiment seems like it's meant to show that AIs can be intelligent, not the opposite?

"Searle could receive Chinese characters through a slot in the door, process them according to the program's instructions, and produce Chinese characters as output, without understanding any of the content of the Chinese writing."

Sure, but that doesn't mean the state of the program doesn't contain any understanding or intelligence, it's just that the human doesn't have a high-level view that can be used to decode that internal state. We're not asking whether the computer chip itself understands things but whether the something contained in the program running on it does. The human could also run a physics simulation as in https://xkcd.com/505/ and recreate a human brain which would be no different to a physical brain in terms of behavior and so there would be no reason not to call it intelligent
