Reading from other comments I think it goes as follows:

This is related to SSO (single sign on) where imgur didn't check the source of the token.

So, if you built an app that used SSO with Facebook (so that any user can log into your app with their Facebook credentials, but without you knowing them) you could use that SSO information for your app to log into imgur as that user.

Because imgur wasn't checking that the token was from their own app. The token is just a Facebook response that says something like "this is user X and they wants to log into app Y, signed by Facebook". If you don't check Y...
I know that Debian, as a rule, removes packages which are not maintained “upstream”.

Regarding Whois clients specifically, it seems that Debian maintains its own Whois client: <https://github.com/rfc1036/whois> This is something which Debian usually does not do, and when it happens, it usually means that there is no updated maintained version available, but the software is too important to remove.

The idea of an oscilloscope watch is kind of cute, but I don't really want something attached to my wrist with directly connected scope probes. Now if the probes attached to a remote device that used Bluetooth, that would be fine.

I was concerned about this aspect initially, but ZoL has been going for many years now. At this point even Debian (the most purist in terms of GPL considerations) includes ZoL in it's official repository. It doesn't distribute binaries, apt just builds the kernel module automatically.

Frankly, if even Debian can use it, it's a non-issue.

Here [1] is a site with a bunch of various weather records for Austin. Assuming the climate is warming then, on average, literally every month should be the hottest month ever recorded. But it doesn't mean it's some night and day difference where suddenly temperatures just spike in ways never before seen.

Austin has long historic temperature ranges well above 100. The highest temperature (112) was recorded in 2000. It gets really hot. The record for the number of days > 100F was set in 2011, at 74. It also gets really cold. The record for the most number of freezing days was also recently set in 2022, with 51.

The Catholic Church has really taken the lead on this for a long, long time now.

In the 16th Century, while the Protestant Reformation raged in Europe, the Council of Trent was held to address this, and the Mass was being reformed into what we know today as the Tridentine Mass. Great changes were afoot, and saints were being made every day.

Pope St. Pius V issued a document called De defectibus, and this document was attached to every copy of the Roman Missal that was published for 500 years.

De defectibus is a marvelous checklist for priests, of what to do when things don't quite go your way as you're celebrating a Mass. This could consist of missing materials or mistakes in prayers or the intrusion of the natural world.

http://www.dailycatholic.org/defectib.htm

As you can see, items #35-37 are very specific about what to do when a fly, spider, or something poisonous comes in contact with the wine, bread, or consecrated elements.

It is important to note that these items appear to pertain only to elements which the priest himself would be consuming. In general, the communicants at a Tridentine Mass never, ever drank from the chalice. Any ciborium holding hosts for the faithful would naturally have a cover, and would not generally need to be uncovered for very long, so the danger of something falling into this receptacle is remote.

Priests have had a little fun with this since then: https://wdtprs.com/2008/02/scholion-consecration-of-a-paten-...

The possibilities and solutions get amusing once you know the burining/washing/sacrarium principle. At a very clerical supper one night we mused about the possibility of a mouse dashing across the altar after the consecration and making off with a Host. Our solution was to bless a cat, put a white stole on it, send it after the rat, and when it came back, burn the cat and put the ashes, yes, down the sacrarium.

What's amusing is the way they use the purificator, which is a cloth napkin. When people drink from a chalice, the minister wipes that spot with a purificator. When the faithful kiss the wood of the cross, such as on Good Friday, it is wiped with a purificator. My father calls this practice "spreading the germs around".

Still pondering on using embeddings for classification. Yes, we can group similars with embeddings through clustering, but how do you extract the label for the groups?

What I've come up with is either a) ask an LLM for the common label from samples from the grouped set after indexing (what keyterm best describes the relationship between these documents), or b) determine the label (or keyword) while indexing (by having the LLM find the keyterms ahead of time), then use set overlap on the grouped set's keyterms after to determine a label for the group.

If 'car' comes from 'cart', and 'cart' could be descendant from an idea of "basket" and/or from an idea of "runner" ex carrus, then this notion should be one you gained, for awareness and competence, present when you use the term, and a notion you should gain to have a proper insight of the term.

Handguns are registered to a tiny degree. The NICS checks records may be kept only on paper, and are kept by the gun dealer until they close business. Then the BATFE or a related govt. office gets them. By order of congress, this office is not allowed to computerize.
Suppose you were 60 years old with 3 kids who live out of the house. You like to go golfing on the weekends, and have no intentions of ever going pro. This weekend, you get to the golf course to see a series of robots have been installed on the course. When you swing, they always give constructive, helpful feedback to try to improve your golf swing. You cannot turn the robots advice off.

I would feel horribly patronized in this scenario. I don't go golfing to get better at it, I go golfing to relax. Similarly someone can program and not necessarily want to be better at it. It depends on their goals and desires. Giving someone advice before asking means you have to guess at what their goal even is. In many contexts (work) this is fine but in general it is not.

To answer your question, the reason why someone might reasonably take offense to unsolicited advice is that unsolicited advice is inherently condescending because it implies that the advisor knows more about the topic than the advisee. It also implies that the advisor knows the advisees skill level and goals. It's kinda insulting, and in another way it's almost controlling as the advisor reframes the discussion around "being good at X". I don't want to be good at golf, I want to enjoy my time golfing.

I've prepared the site to be able to work with different example images for each aesthetic, but I haven't put in the full work of downloading these from the wiki for each one yet. That will hopefully increase the diversity of examples somewhat, although many aesthetics still need further contributions on the wiki itself, having only one example picture and no gallery.

The same issue occurs when generating images with Midjourney using a list of names of aesthetics, even without specifying a person, generated images usually result in a woman.

It isn't that simple. Most handguns actually have lots of "safeties" meant to ensure that it only goes off when held/pointed and the trigger is pulled. Triggers are also not like controller buttons. They generally require significant force to actually pull. No modern handgun should fire if shaken or dropped. Even guns from 100+ year ago (Colt 1911) have redundant safety features to protect against mishandling.

Precisely. Policing in any country is always a mix of public service and protection racket. A police monopoly on protecting people from other people, or society from itself, leaves no safety for anyone.

It's ironic that some of the most vociferously anti-gun people in the US are also the ones with the clearest view of the police as an armed gang. But absent armed police and without the right to protect themselves, what do they think will fill the vacuum?

> But Haskell enables you to do more. With around 30 lines of Liquid Haskell (those lines between {-@ and @-}), you can upgrade simple runtime checks to compile time verification, see the full example [1]. You get great efficiency, safely, without unnecessary runtime checks, which is impossible in C++, Rust, or Julia without Liquid Types.

Just a side-note, julia's compiler is very adept at proving situations where array accesses are guaranteed to be in-bounds and will automatically elide bounds checks in those situations. Not saying this to take anything away from Liquid Haskell though, that seems like a very cool project with some very cool capabilities.
> "Registered to a different person" -- for the most part, guns are not registered in the USA. Was this in a state or city with a registry for AR-15s?

I interpreted this as the cop having simply stolen the guns from their registered owners through some sort of search or seizure process.

Disclaimer: I live next to downtown by I-35. Did move during the pandemic from NorCal to TX. (Have family in TX.)

Many issues:

The charm is gone with too many highrises like San Jose downtown.

It's hot AF. 110 F for 3 months every day. 100 F every day for another 2 months on either side of that.

In winter, it can randomly freeze down to 11 F, and say "hello" to no power and no water for 2-3 weeks.

The housing is slapped together and lacks architectural design. The new apartments are tiny and expensive, and not very good.

There's just as many homeless as SF, including rampant retail theft.

The costs are just as bad as the Bay Area.

The roads are worse than those in Bay Area, and I didn't think that was possible without snow and ice.

Lots of tourists, which could be a negative for some people.

The schools are so-so.

It's Texas and abortion is illegal.

Fewer batshit insane people than LA but more than Denver. And anyone can CCW or open carry without any documentation. If you have no criminal record, you can buy a handgun over at Academy without any waiting period at all.

Property taxes are absurd. If you think Palo Alto is bad...

APD is critically underfunded, understaffed by 200-250 officers, morale is terrible, and non-life-threatening calls have a 48 hour backlog. If you have an AirTag on an item, it's stolen, and the location is known, the police won't lift a finger. There is zero routine traffic enforcement.

Crowded with 2nd- and 3rd-tier school tech bros, corporate clones, and dumb money lazy people... people who are simultaneously uncool and boring.

Don't go to Whole Foods because it screams conspicuous consumption. The HQ is unimpressive.

There isn't much of a tech scene compared to the Bay Area.

On positive notes: Even though TX-35 is a national gerrymandering joke reaching from downtown Austin to downtown San Antonio by an "umbilical cord" along I-35, Greg Casar is one of the most reasonable, ballsy, sharp, empathetic, and progressive reps in Congress.

I'm kind of afraid of this. When it gets DOM and drawing abilities, People are gonna build SO many things of varying levels of quality, from scratch, that probably could have been done with existing JS frameworks, don't work well with browser features, require learning 583 languages to work on anything, etc.

It will be amazing for compute heavy stuff in the browser I'd imagine. Cross platform assembly is a super cool idea. If they can get it right at least we might have something besides a container that runs anywhere.

I'm just not sure I want them to mess with JS/HTML based UI just when it was really getting awesome and declarative was becoming standard... And since web devs like. Making stuff harder than it needs to be they might...

Although it is not built into the grammar of our language I've come across a description very similar to this, by CS Lewis, describing his perception of time as that of a passenger on a train who's riding with their back to the engine.

analogies develop further from there, such as events being passed at the moment moving very quickly, and large in one's field of view, and to some extent one js able to see around them and order their importance by size and speed with respect to one's own position. But they're moving fast and it's hard to take in all the detail at once, and being so close the more proximal ones obscure your view of the ones further away though the latter may actually be in fact larger or more significant. Only as they all recede into the distance of the past does their relative significance with respect to each other become more evident.

None of those scenarios matter to me:

- I can't prevent the police from pegasusing my device.

- I haven't have anyone infected by a malware in years, no matter the brand of device.

- Most thief won't be able to do anything with any of my devices, no matter the brand. They are not very smart, and can't deal with a bios password, an encrypted disk or even simply a locked smartphones. They steal it anyway, and throw it away when it fails.

But in the end, I don't optimize my life for the rare occasion of being stolen.

I optimize it for my day to day problems, like being able to use my machine to do what I want to do every day, without having to hope I'm allowed to do it by corporations.

I'm much more worried about the state of society that losing a phone once to a thief.
