If you are after a vigilante justice, I would suggest doing something substantial like exposing the identities or tipping of the authorities and most importantly: don't reveal your own identity. Back in the day when the internet was mostly a lawless place you could have done something like that and recoup the clout and be the hero of the people but that's not the case anymore.
> Geo engineering is a solution in the meantime (which she dismisses completely without reason "which could either cool the planet or kill us all even faster.")

Geo engineering has exactly the same issue as ecosystem engineering, when we tried that without understanding the systems in play we simply create a gigantic game of whack-a-mole, with rats, cats, rabbits, so on and so forth.

We don't understand enough to be confident we are able to do geo engineering without massive unforeseen consequences. It's such a complex system, with interactions that we are not equipped to predict (or even have a good comprehension), that the thought we can "just geo engineer in the meantime" is, to me, of incredible naïvety... It's a belief in technology completely unfounded, as if technology is magic, borderline deus ex machina. Just because we can create some technology does not mean we do understand the consequences of applying said technology on a global scale to mess up with climate systems, we simply don't know what might happen.

Are you willing to bet the future of your children, grandchildren, etc. on unproven technology? I'm not. Geo engineering is not going to save us, stop believing in magic.

Apparently such an odd "crime" (banning people from walking in a public place) exists in some countries, where is seems you will have half a dozen armed police officers wrestle you to the ground for such an action.

> .. the study showed that in stormwater runoff during rain approximately 19 out of every 20 microplastics collected were tyre wear particles with anywhere from 2 to 59 particles per litre of water.

I’m curious, is there any real alternative tyre material technically possible to avert this? Or is this plain impossible given that tyres by definition need to be rubber-type-based whereby with friction it is inevitable that wear particles will be released.

In the army, we were required to clean our own barracks; the janitorial work wasn't contracted out. Shared spaces were on a rotating shift. It still sucked. Believe me, nobody was volunteering for extra shifts of the shared spaces.

I don’t care much about the downvotes, so please go ahead, but that was not a loaded question.

I’m genuinely curious, I’m not intentionally obtuse and I’m not implying anything.
The level of addictiveness is definitely dependent on the individual though.

I was born in the mid 90s and had one of these things growing up. I couldn't care less about it, I must have let the poor bird die a dozen times.

On the other hand I got insanely hooked to my dad's very-old-even-then 486. Turned that into a career, so that didn't turn out too bad I guess.
It's not a process. You think of it as a process because you can only read one line at a time, but the proof is looking at the whole.

It's like saying "There are infinitely many primes because if not we could multiply them all together and add one to generate another one". You don't actually have to find all the prime numbers and work out a product. You are saying that's actually not possible because the idea contradicts itself.
If there's someone taking recommendations, I'm gonna recommend Capital One. When I was new to the US it was the only bank that wanted to give me a credit card (even Citi didn't even though I had an established credit history from Citibank in Poland). As I built my credit score, I got the credit limit increased, the WebApp is very reasonable, I used fraud protection a few times which worked (got my money back and credit card replaced after the CC was used to buy some things I didn't authorize).

And they have a zero-fee foreign currency transactions that still give you cashback.

It's really good (from my perspective). The only downside is they require an US phone number to use the products (on top of SSN)

That's not what I meant and I suspect you are well aware of that.
It can bounce off of meteor trails or the moon. It's been done many times in the ham community. Signals do bounce off of aircraft too, there are even passive military radars that track airborne objects using DVB-T or other strong signal reflections. It could be used if the conditions are just right.

All of this has really nothing to do with LoRa and everything to do with physical properties of the emissions (frequency, power, polarization) and physical properties of whatever happens to exist in the world at the time.
Wow, the referenced Ecstatica game is wild.
FWIW, I don't think you should worry too much.

I'm not at all familiar with the Italian justice system, but it's hard to imagine that anyone is going to investigate this case unless the injured party complains -- which they aren't going to do, because they were committing a crime themselves at the time.

The Gaussian Splatting paper itself uses COLMAP, which really isn't that new. I have thoughts about marching cubes across splatted gaussians to get a mesh out, but I don't think I've seen that done yet.
One of the main downsides of coding and particularly working software development is that it is expected to be endlessly plastic. There are always other decisions you could have made. There's always a little voice saying you could go back and make it better. The anxiety of choice. Maybe you could rewrite it in a different language? Or with a different framework? Could we have it in cornflower blue?

With things like woodworking: to cut is to choose. You can't go back, so you've also cut away a huge part of the decision tree looming behind you.
I guess what they’re trying to say is that if you were well known you might not need to disclose it because people would already know?

Problem is peak electricity usage is 4-9pm when people come home from work, turn on the A/C, TVs, stoves, lights, etc. Residential users, not factories. Moving that peak is not feasible unless you're somehow changing the standard 9 to 5 workday. So raising peak hours prices too much will just hurt a majority of people

California has already mandated migrating plans to variable pricing, because there's so much solar. They call it time-of-use plans, and that's where I'm pulling 4-9pm from. Weekend peak hours are also priced lower because more people are home during the day and the peaks are lower.

https://www.eia.gov/electricity/gridmonitor/dashboard/electr... Last weekend's lowered peaks are a bit less noticable because of the holiday Monday though.

That's a very useful distinction. A lot of pop used to be - maybe still is. It works because its self-expression connects strongly with an audience.

In music, the people with the technical skills often work in support roles as session musicians, producers, and arrangers. They lack individual expression and charisma but have the skills needed to polish someone else's work.

The same applies to books. Dan Brown and Twilight are terrible writing but they give middle-of-the-bell-curve readers experiences that mean something to them. Most art aims higher, but the middle of the bell curve is where the big money is.

True mediocrity comes from having very limited technical skill - probably imitative in a narrow niche - and no ability to connect with an audience.

I think that applies to most academic attempts at serial music. The style is a bit of an oddity because the rules were contrived rather than evolved. And (IMO) that kind of dissonance has a very limited expressive range.

Schoenberg could get away with it, but there was a fad in 50s to 70s where that kind of serialism became academic orthodoxy. The result was hours and hours of music by clever educated people with absolutely no cultural relevance outside of academia.
I like to do the same kind of experimental mathematics:

1. Write a Python script to brute force the first values of the sequence.

2. Search oeis for that sequence.

3. If (2) fails, simplify the problem and repeat.

Sometimes you get a completely unexpected connection that you would never have come up with yourself just by thinking.
Now that's neat, you get to claim to have invented a new word!

I've been using LSD instead of Exa, so I'm lightly relieved that I don't have to change over.

Both projects are amazing little utilities that when combined with a well-customized shell, really make using the terminal a joy.

I absolutely love the trend of rewriting classic Unix utilities in rust, because the new tools often have (small or large) usability and quality of life improvements that altogether make the terminal a much more powerful environment.
And in practice, every level that has a say in the central planning - even at Walmart - tries to impose other agendas. What they would like to see more produced and consumed as opposed to what the would be purchaser wants. In Russia it might have been that someone wanted to drain off some money, while they knew some regional admin who wanted their figures to look good, etc up the chain. Result: garbage tractors and not enough of them. In the US, with central planning, gas engines are penalized or electrical ones are pushed - whether you think this is a good reason or not.

At least in the US, if Walmart central planning insists on procuring crappy paper towels, there is a good chance that their competitor Target, literally across the street, is at least ignoring them and perhaps even deliberately exploiting their mistake.

That depends on the size of your bribe. I'd also start a meditation practice of some kind, because you will need a lot of patience.
jq is great for letting users munge their data; we do something similar letting users provision an incoming webhook endpoint, send us arbitrary json data, and set up mappings to do useful things with their data, along with regression tests, monitoring, etc. jq makes the majority of cases straightforward (basically json dot notation) and the long tail possible.
For doing meteor- and airplane-scatter stuff you need quite a bit of transmission power. The max. tx power of LoRa transmitters is way too low.
It's the definition of any distributed system (or even single server) where you can deploy code, whether it's Erlang or a kubernetes cluster you setup.

Is pushing new code for your server to run "arbitrary code execution"? I guess we can call it that. Is it an exploit?

Depends if the code comes from some random person on the internet from mechanisms that you don't intend for pushing new code to run (e.g. through a buffer overflow on your server or XSS), or if it comes from yourself through your official mechanisms.

I think the main confusion is that, "Scrap your Bounds Checks with Liquid Haskell" presented a toy example/implementation which scales to real implementations, for the task of high-performance parsing of UDP packets (used by Awake Security, I guess).

The toy example/implementation is chosen to teach Liquid Types/Haskell, and therefore, covers the simple case of parsing UDP headers, which is a simple bounds check of "indexing an array of length 8". In this case, there is no need to use Liquid Types in any language.

But in the real use case (not shown in the talk), when you want to dig deeper into the content of UDP packets and such, you will need more than "check the input data (length) ahead of time so that you don't have to check the range in the middle of a loop". This is the case where Liquid Types help, tremendously. But such complicated cases, where Liquid Types shines, may not fit into a talk.

Again, it is not fair to think this is a complication specific to Haskell.
Are those ideas not essentially orthogonal and therefore never were in conflict? Determinism is about what can or will happen given the current state of the universe, panpsychism is trying to explain where your experience of the current state comes from. There might be some conflict, for example if you conclude from your experience of having free will that you actually have free will, but those do not seem central enough to necessitate conflict.

1. Moral Responsibility: The concept of moral responsibility would need to be re-evaluated. [...]

You are not going to reevaluate anything in a deterministic universe.

- Good contour lines and hill shading! I live in Switzerland and it's considerably harder to understand the terrain without these features.

- Configurable POIs. In Organic Maps I can show POIs for a few common categories, but many are missing (for example EV charging stations). And I can only show one type of POI at once on the map. In OSMand, I can show POIs for "drinking water, EV charging stations and public bathrooms" at the same time.

- Track recording and especially live tracking (OSMand has a very nice plugin for that, which works with services like Traccar).

All I am taking issue with is this belief hat "both sides are as bad as each other" and "it just happens that Germany started it but really guilt is equal".

I've stated facts - that in our reality, Germany did primarily start the war, Not Britain or France. It was a war of aggression and attempted conquest by Germany, and a war of defense and survival for France. That's reality and that has a huge input into the "was there a right side and a wrong side" question - exactly the same as Ukraine today, which is why I brought it up. I just don't see how you can get from this to "they were both as bad as each other".

It is not the case that in some alternate reality the war could have easily been started by France or Britain. First, there's a reason why France built the Maginot line and Germany didn't bother with building one - because everybody expected that Germany would be the aggressor. Britain would have no reason to mount such an aggressive war on continental Europe and France would have been too weak. So I doubt this counterfactual would ever have happened.

Secondly, imagine it all happened again today. That Germany invaded France. Surely France would undertake the same actions (ie defend itself) and I would expect that the UK and US would be allies seeing as it is being attacked by a destabilising aggressive power.

Britain and France were morally correct and the great war was a "just war" from their perspective. "Britain and France are just as guilty as germany" is just modern bunkum.
I've flagged the story to help it vanish faster. I encourage others do the same.

Do you have anyone that can mentor you on such matters? This whole thing has a vibe of self-taught about it. I recommend finding someone older and more experienced to talk to... if for no other reason, than to avoid making mistakes that can put you in legal jeopardy.

That being said, I don't think anyone here thinks you're a bad person for wanting to clap back at scammers. We just want to emphasize caution and working within the law.

Demonstrate why this is true. What _exactly_ about the definition "private ownership of capital" necessitates that capitalism must give way if capital cannot be worked for profit by cheap labor?
One way to correct structural problems would be to do data analysis and why allocated money is being wasted or not enough or whatever the case be. That would be your high impact role since you are already proficient in software engineering. Get some publicly available data and do analysis.

Minijail – sandboxing and containment tool used in ChromeOS/Android
Happened the other way to me once. When I made my Gmail account I had a . in it. Emails sent from me go from this email address.

My Facebook email for ages was my school email (as is tradition, right?) and one day someone registered as my actual email around the time I was doing a bunch of address consolidation because my school was moving all historical accounts to a separate subdomain.

I clicked to confirm foolishly (should not have done that) and it became associated with someone else's Facebook account.

Facebook has a process for this. You request an email to your address and it sends you one and you reply and it removes the email from the other guy.

Well, I did that except he set it without the '.' and when I replied from mine it wouldn't accept it. I tried again as it was and only realized after three tries what the problem was. Facebook's difference in verification processes (click to confirm / reply to dissociate) meant that I was not doing the right thing.

Repeating the action means I looked like a fraudster so that must have been why even though I added the dot version as an email to send as it would no longer accept me.

To make matters worse, I decided I'd just fix it by resetting my password and logging in and removing my email.

Well, I succeeded in the password reset but Facebook protects you here by requiring friends to verify it's you. Well, I didn't know his friends so I just let it go: he could no longer log in except via phone number (I hope, or he was locked out) and I couldn't associate my email correctly.

Then one random day I tried again and it worked.

I don’t think he was denying evolution. He was suggesting that maybe slow, random natural selection is not the only mechanism by which organisms evolve.

I’m not saying there’s an intelligent creator (I personally don’t believe in one), but perhaps the way genes mutate is more “intelligent” than we think. In some cases it sure looks like there was a “goal” to achieve, even at the cost of sacrificing something for a while. That seems kind of “intelligent”.

Maybe it’s kind of like the exploration/exploitation tradeoff in RN.

The text reads better if you substitute produce with provide. Heat pumps can provide x amount of heat for y amount of electricity, and x tends to be greater than y. The deficit x-y is made up by "pumping" heat from the cold side to the hot. Hence called a heat pump.

A 1kw heat pump providing 4kw heat is pumping 3kw heat from outside. Similarly it could be providing 4kw of cooling by pumping in reverse. Most heat pumps are reversible.
