3M Aura 9330+ is the most comfortable. The shipping from the Face Mask Store [0] is affordable and fast. They have many other FFP3 alternatives. With my last order, I got Dräger X-plore 1930 FFP3, which seems great, but I haven't tried it yet. FFP3 masks are not cheap, but high-end 3M disposable masks have a great fit, they are very comfortable, and you can wear them for days.

I would say perhaps the key difference here is we're talking about cosmological scale observations. Yes, a few quasars might've had to pass through some gas clouds or an asteroid belt or space dust etc. but at the scale we're talking about, that's probably not going to skew the numbers too much. There's 190 quasars being measured here. Presumably more observations can be made over time and with other quasars involved but I don't think these scientists need more data to be confident in what they're seeing.

If you think about a pebble getting in the way of old faithful, it's not going to make much difference if you're measuring how much water sprays out over a hundred years. Now you have 190 old faithfuls and they're all spraying out water in pretty much the same way, you don't really need to account for that pebble too much.

Apple Debating Settlement with AirPod Max Buyers over Serious “Design Flaw”
China and South Korea are making a big fuss about it, despite producing and releasing more tritium than Japan.

Just a few minutes ago, The CPC (Communist Party of China) stated that it is suspending all imports of Japanese seafood to protect consumers.

Source: https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-asia-66599189

> As expected, China has imposed a blanket ban on all Japanese seafood.

> Beijing announced some restrictions last month, but they were limited to 10 prefectures in Japan, including Fukushima and Tokyo. Earlier this week, Hong Kong announced a similar 10 prefecture ban on ‘aquatic produce’.

> South Korea, too, still blocks seafood imports from the Fukushima area. It's a ban that's been in place since 2013 and, although the government's political stance has softened, it is one that it has no intention of lifting.

> These are major customers for Japan and represent a lot of lost business. Nowhere buys more Japanese seafood than mainland China, which imported more than $600m worth last year. Remarkably, Hong Kong is only just behind - spending $520m on marine produce from Japan.

> Given China's consistent and vocal opposition to the wastewater release, it's a scenario that Japan's government probably envisaged. In the short-term, it admits businesses will take a 'significant' hit.

> In this sense, China understands the economic leverage it has over Japan and the question is whether Hong Kong will follow the mainland’s lead with another all-out ban.

> Either way, we're talking about major disruption for Japan's seafood industry and for restaurants in Hong Kong and China.

This is how the sudoers file works as well. I think this is desirable in software that authenticates or authorizes users, and maybe more broadly wherever security concerns are essential. That's because this logic makes it easy to create settings that can't be overridden in by adding a new file in a whatever.conf.d directory: you define those settings in the main config file before you source whatever.conf.d/* and you put some kind of special protections on that file.

Even where you're not worried about somebody evading your controls per se, it can be nice from a configuration management perspective in giving you a soft 'guarantee' that if some new hire who doesn't have the whole picture adds a new file in there, or some package tries to install a stupid default for its own service, your baseline settings can retain priority.

In other contexts you probably see the opposite behavior because what you really want is not a 'baseline configuration' but a collection of defaults in the strict sense: fallback settings to be used in case nothing is explicitly configured by the user, developer, or administrator (as the case may be).

Wow, didn't expect to get so many comments. It's just interesting to me that we have 500hz monitors, yet games are still coming out that only run at ~70 fps on a 3080, etc. I used CS:GO as a comparison just because it was an example capable of coming near 500 FPS. Avg FPS are not going up fast enough in my opinion. I understand some games purposefully limit FPS for physics calculations, but there are many that do not.
Awesome work!

It was based on the prompt I shared previously.

The protagonist was Aeyela who was rendered as an anime/manga school girl. Her voice was portrayed as deep and masculine, which was pretty entertaining.

I did encounter a couple issues:

* the 2nd song was age-restricted, and I was unable to skip it, so the music stopped. I looked at another tab and returned, and another song loaded

* potentially related to the above: the voice narration stopped and I couldn't figure out how to get it to resume, even after toggling a few of the related settings

Show HN: Spamlabs – API for analyzing spam behavior in social-media-like content
Hello hackers!

I am Vlad, and I built SpamLabs: an API that analyzes social media like content to determine whether that content is spam or not.

All anti-spam services nowadays focus mainly on email (filters and such).

SpamLabs doesn't want to be an email filter, but a filter for any user generated content out there.

If you have a business or product that accepts user generated content, there is a high chance you'll get fake users pushing all kind of spam messages.

With an integration to the SpamLabs API, you can get some insights whether the generated content is clearly spam and needs to be removed, or it is legit content coming from legit users.

I am also exploring creating plugins for various content platforms that work with user generated content (Slack, Discord, Wordpress, Shopify, maybe even Facebook Groups). Not 100% sure about which one has more potential yet, I am still investigating this possibility.

Let me know what you think!

That seems like a great idea. I've started a branch "attempt_to_avoid_dynamic_cast" where I've tried to implement your idea:
https://github.com/joelonsql/wherr/commit/c5906a257fc9768ad0...

I couldn't figure out how to make it work though, since with these changes, now nested functions using the #[wherr] macro won't work due to "doesn't have a size known at compile-time".

The other idea of just using #[track_caller] also seems promising, and will be considered for a future major version.

But I still think it's interesting if the macro variant can be improved, to avoid having to do dynamic casts, hence this new branch.
I don't share your optimism. I expect that there will be a lot of false news and propaganda using these kinds of images. Perhaps our legal systems will evolve (albeit slower) to handle cases that come up using these technologies.

This will, if not already, make its way into porn and increase the amount of content there. It's already wild and with this, I don't expect anything good to happen.
Could someone help settle a debate?

The universe is infinite, or at least appears so. The cosmic background radiation was because the early universe was hot everywhere. However, I’ve been telling my wife that the universe didn’t start from a single point; it has always been infinite. The concept of “smaller” is only because the matter was less dispersed than it is today. Veritasium’s video seems to support this argument.

She’s pointed towards a few different articles saying that the most accepted theory of physics is that the universe started from a single point, and that there is language such as “it grew to the size of an apple” within a small amount of time after the Big Bang.

How can both views be correct? Either the universe isn’t infinite, and therefore has some kind of edge, or it is, and has always had infinite size.

Never accept an exploding offer. If they won’t give you more time, then let them see you’re prepared to let it lapse. It’s a ploy to create urgency when there is none, as is never in your interest as a candidate. I’d be very surprised if a single offer actually expired, it’s expensive to lose qualified candidates for the hiring company.
This just shows again that readability is entirely subjective, IMHO combinations of .map, .filter, .reduce, etc are often less readable than doing the same thing in a nested loop.

It has to make a decision to jump over the print sequence or not, whereas without the print it can eliminate the branch with a conditional move and only have to predict the loop variable. It just makes a bad guess as to whether branch prediction or conditional move will be faster, as explained above by tylerhou.

The big bang might have created time itself, whatever that means.
We are working on LawGPT. Today's foundational models like GPT 4 have some Laws, but not all. Sadly some US States still require the purchase of printed copies and others are blocked by TOS.
So would you say in the general case, i.e. the compiler obviously doesn't know how predictable a branch may be, using conditional move is a poor choice when writing to an address which is repeatedly written to inside the loop?

What I am trying to get a feel for, is whether this represents a bad choice of assembly in general for this kind of loop.
In reality it literally is as simple as “intel says it’s 7nm so it’s 7nm”, but density is what determines the node number, insofar as anything determines it beyond marketing.

So, if intel 7 is a 10nm class node then so is tsmc N7. But the whole industry cooked their node names a decade ago and intel is allowed to do the same terminology. To do anything otherwise would be a needless marketing disadvantage. If someone’s cheating on marketing, everyone has to - and the reality was everyone but intel was already cheating.
> [...] fear that the Japanese government / Fukushima’s owners can’t be trusted to release only what they say they will.

Especially given the fact that Naoto Kan, the prime minister of Japan at the time of the Fukushima accident, had to go to the TEPCO HQ to force them to continue the response instead of giving up and watching a full meltdown. Japan has a lot to do in order to regain the lost trust.

> they were just hoping to reach “too big to fail” status before attracting the attention of prosecutors.

Are saying that although this is evil, evil money laundering, if they just get a chance to do more of it, US prosecutors will leave them alone? They failed, so now they have acdha explain to them how they should have known better?

This is nonsense - they didn't hope to get "too big to fail". If you are looking for a reason why Roman Storm felt confident to operate out of and stay in the US it is because:

- there were many questions about whether KYC applied.
- these questions remain today.

If you personally want the law to criminalize what the TC founders did, feel free to argue as such, but be prepared to explain what exactly that is, because there are a whole bunch of other people wondering if you'd want to seem them jailed for their particular work on financial vehicles.

Does she count up to 12 on one hand but up to five on the other?

This always confused me about the 60 explanation.

It seems to me either you count up to 12 on both hands 24 or 144), or you might as well use the fingers of one hand to point to the joints on the other, thus getting 14 * 5.

And the five itself is suspicious: you can count to 6 * 12 not 5 * 12, since you can raise 0..5 fingers.

This is because NFTs don't actually understand the concept of a "sale". They can be transferred to another wallet, but this wallet may belong to the same person as the previous wallet in which case paying royalties wouldn't make much sense.

Paying royalties is entirely optional. What's built into the contract is a calculation of a value for royalties to be paid, but it's up to the marketplace to use it. Other platforms already ignored it.

> The only way this complaint is valid is if there was a bait and switch

There is a bait and switch, just not the one you proposed. If Terraform had started off under the BSL, it would have significantly less adoption.

As is, people adopted it under evaluation of the old terms, and are now being told the terms are changing going forward.

Since the previous code is still available, this will likely hurt newer, smaller players more than larger established players - if you are offering a large commercial offering on terraform today, you will likely justify maintaining a vendor fork going forward, or contributing to a genuine new fork project like OpenTF.

> The more this happens, the less people will hold the naive view that for-product entities will by default keep providing stuff for free forever. Capitalism baby.

Historically the successful companies had a clear view of what was free and what was charged - e.g. Redhat binary and source distributions were free, but enterprise distributions, commercial support, professional certifications as well as custom software/professional services were all revenue channels.

The rise of more asymmetric licensing terms (e.g. sole corporate copyright with publication under AGPLv3) has been an ongoing change as companies have wanted the freedom to change where they get their money over time, and defend from other members in the community potentially competing against them.

To be fair, TEPCO is completely and absolutely untrustworthy. There is evidence of severe miss-management, as well as 2 cases where they deliberately ignored safety warning from government agencies.

As a Japanese citizen, I would feel safer seeing the TEPCO corporation dismantled, and it's leadership behind bars. But the courts declared them not guilty.

A late addition, but I should also add info about Onagawa Nuclear Powerplant. It survived the exact same disaster with no melt down, only because the manager staunchly refused to back down on constant safety training and disaster drills.

There's a bunch of similar cases, from memory. Hebrew was rekindled in 1940-1950s as a national language for Israel after centuries of mostly being a religious language - needed new words.
