And? As if the law in these things has no relevance. Of course it does. You can't just discount this because it's in the law. Good luck seeing these kinds of laws applying to digital media. It's just not treated the same.
Agree. MacOS app is bad. Chrome extension bad. I use it at work and for that it's fine, I barely have to use it.
I remember throughout my years that London had a (negatively) impressive amount of cameras (https://www.precisesecurity.com/articles/top-10-countries-by...)

I don't know how it started, but their own "war on terror" must have helped to hit that top spot.

Monitoring internet is just the same. "Eyes everywhere". The technology changed (people walking on the street vs people browsing the internet), but the practice remains.

And to show where the focus is (and it's not to serve and protect) the amount of corruption in the UK police (even rapists & murderers) are only caught after years and years, and only after the victims go through hell and high water to get justice. (that last paragraph is a bit provocative - but true)
This is the best evidence against UFO, ghosts, Nessi, big foot, etc that we have :)
It might be a European vs. American cultural thing because week number is much less used in America, and Siri was developed by Americans. Maybe this is more of a localization failure than a generic functionality failure.

If it gave you an answer that seemed wrong, well, there are also several slightly different definitions of week number, so it could be that it chose one that wasn't the one you expected (maybe also a localization failure).
Thank you - one thing that can be slightly misleading when reading this number is that 50% of the homeless adults are over 50. This doesn't mean (and you didn't say so) that 50% of the adults over 50 are homeless. It's not possible to know, by just reading this percentage, whether the homeless situation of older adults is getting better or worse in total numbers.
Only if you need to stream/ship it a huge number of times.

It would depend on the specifics of each implementation, but shipping 10 discs total over a year is likely to be more efficient than to keep streaming infrastructure up and running for that one movie.

Obviously, the same streaming infrastructure would be used for other content, but how many (unpopular) shows are only watched a few times a year yet they take valuable infrastructure capacity?

And then we get into lack of popularity leading into obsolecence, and we are now talking a much wider topic.
You can use a device to display the image. Things you can use include a Vr headset, a 3ds, or some rig with a lens https://www.andybaird.com/travels/skylarking/3d/viewer.htm

Probably the dead simplest thing to do is find a thrift store vr headset designed to go over a phone and get a 3d image viewer app.
I’ve been using Bitwarden more as a backup since it lags in more ways than one. With iOS 17 bringing password sharing, I may be able to rely on that and switch to KeePass (and its derivatives) as a cross platform backup where needed.

Products like 1Password and Dropbox first made a good consumer product before pivoting to enterprise and making the products worse. Even before the VC funding of $100 million, Bitwarden started pivoting to cater to enterprise features and neglected the consumer side. This has resulted in Bitwarden doing a minimum set of things in a very mediocre way.

Its desktop clients are based on Electron and suffer with the common issues related to that (don’t behave like native apps for keyboard shortcuts or navigation, sluggish, etc.). Its mobile app, at least on iOS, is also sluggish and has poor UX.

People have asked for additional predefined item types (like WiFi passwords, software licenses, etc.) and that’s been on the roadmap for more than five and a half years [1] with no timeframe for release in sight. It just recently changed the timeframe for this from the first half of 2023 back to “Under Research”. [2] In all likelihood, it’ll be six and a half to seven years by the time that’s done, if at all.

One positive about Bitwarden is that its free tier offers something that’s somewhat good (ProtonPass is nowhere close to this as of yet). But I don’t see anything in the password management market that’s cheap enough (like Bitwarden’s personal plan), has good features (including browser extensions) and stability, and is managed by courteous and helpful people (1Password fails on some of these).

The problem with such a small community, is that users from community made packages are expected to fix them when they no longer work with latest compilers.
In America, it looks like real estate is becoming a victim of capitalism: companies buy properties, convert them to rentals, the collude with each other to "maximize" the value of those rentals. Then they claim the real problem is zoning codes so they can buy up more property just to expand their monopoly.

Homelessness is the a low water effect caused by inflation.
I also use KeePassXC and commit my DB to git. On PCs I just clone the repo and am ready to go. On mobile I download the DB via a web interface. No fancy automatic sync, but my DB doesn't change that often, so the manual effort is still small.
Computer Architecture: Four Great Learning Resources
Hacker News is essentially a marketing and legitimization arm of a VC firm. The community around it is the value. They know what happens if they try to change it.
This experiment has been reproduced in one way or another. Most significantly by Jan Degenaar, who spent many hours wearing "left to right inverting goggles", in his excellent and readable thesis "Perceptual engagement, a sensorimotor approach to phenomenal experience".

To my mind, the most important observation is that the scene did not "fully" invert "back to normal", but it was only visuals which Degenaar had appropriately re-learned which appeared "normal". For example, on the first day, walking down a street would make him see a car drive down the road to one side of him, but he'd hear it on the other side of him. Later on, the vision and the sound appeared on the same side, but if he looked at the number plate it was still "backwards". He had learned to locate sound while wearing inverting goggles, so the experience was "normal", but not learned to read while wearing inverting goggles, so that experience was still "strange".

Other papers, such as "The myth of upright vision" show that the change happens faster than can be attributed to "neural plasticity".

What I find even more amazing is that he's been inhaling oil and plastic smoke for 50 years and yet he seems to be in good health.
Part of the problem is government regulation. In some places, it's almost impossible to build new houses due to regulations.
Some portion of the population wants to see house prices continue to increase and they will vote for politicians who will implement policies which will support that agenda.
Of course this happens at the expense of another, also large portion of the population who do not own a house and have to pay higher rents.

I think we have a situation where part of the population is literally voting to appropriate wealth from another part of the population.
Voting for more immigration which drives up demand for houses and voting for more regulations which constrain the supply of housing.

At the same time, those people who do not own a house are wising up to the scheme and so they increasingly refuse to work or provide value to society.
Instead, they resort to their own financial schemes, illegal activity, freeloading government benefits; they've checked out from the system.
Even those who would like to contribute increasingly find that they can't due to government regulations and their inability to amass enough capital to get started on their venture.

It seems that we are headed for an economic and political disaster. The government should not allow itself to be weaponized against part of the population for the benefit of another.

The other problem is related to the role of debt in modern society. It doesn't make sense that modern banking is centered around mortgages. The point of debt was to finance new business ventures to create economic value to empower people to provide as much value as possible; not to prop up massive financial schemes which jeopardize people's ability to keep a roof over their heads.
The wealthiest baby boomers, who already had a leg up, maybe. But remember baby boomers are just more populous than any other generation— schools had to be expanded just to educate them, hospitals had to grow just to heal them, suburbs built just to raise them. Of course as economic disparity hits, they will also be a broad chunk of homeless, even if proportionally they are more prosperous than other generations.

With this attitude we’d still be driving with leaded gas, living in lead painting rooms with asbestos roofs and spraying ozone layer destroying aerosols amongst a bunch of other things.
The mechanism you described only really works with short term safety issues. If it takes years or decades for health problems to develop neither workers nor their employers tend to be particularly bothered about solving them.
Making it fast shouldn't be the last step
So i have played around with this architecture specifically for entity linking. Two BERT encoders: one for the query text and another for the candidates. Initially the two encoders were separate but trained together. When I tried using the same BERT model for both, the accuracy jumped by 4 percentage points. Was pretty suprised by this and i guess it got me thinking that maybe a simple cosine similarity loss function is not enough information for the model to shared latent space. Maybe we also need some weights to be the same between encoders. Granted in my use case above they are the same modality but if we are building a model with image and text encoders it might be helpful to try and tie the weights in the last layers of those two encoders
No one understands protocols. No one understands the Eight Fallacies of Distributed Computing. No one understands the CAP theorem, and therefore they don't realize that they are trading away data integrity. No one realizes that the architecture of TCP tacitly assumes that all networks are wired. No one understands idempotency. Today's networks are all semiconnected, which is the worst possible case. Mastery of these topics is an absolute precondition for writing working software, but they are not taught.

You are right, but I think it is relatively easy to just export Bitwarden data and import it to KeePassXC if it will be necessary.
Making Military Service More Attractive for Modern Spouses
Soil exhaustion is mostly irrelevant to this industrial method... it just means adding a more complete nutrient mix. In much of the US or Europe they can get awawy with only adding NPK (until, as you say, the soil gets exhausted, meaning some of the other nutrients are no longer available in sufficient quantity), but in a lot of the tropics (where I've practiced agriculture) the soils are so poor that they go with a complete nutrient mix from the start, i.e. treat the soil as just a substrate to hold the roots and add everything else, both macro and micro nutrients (often in the irrigation water, so it's basically hydroponics in soil). The method remains the same.
This could probably change my experience on HN.

In general too much noise in the comments, so a hand-picked filter like this is very useful.
OSM presentation configurations are a bit like Linux distributions (only much, much smaller): yes, having more than one causes a lot of seemingly avoidable mental load, but there is little doubt that the design by committee implied by a single version would be much worse.
Although I disagree with TylerE about the issue that started this thread,
I agree that assuming that someone doesn't understand something is generally considered rude and would advise people against that. I would doubly advise them against it if they are from the Haskell community, because it is one way our community could get a poor reputation. Instead I hope we can be welcoming and tolerant, even of people who may not understand things, in the hope that they will come to understand them through interacting with us, or at the very least enjoy the experience.

Well they had 50 distribution centres in the past. It wasn't across the country then.
average ≠ median
Automation and AI are going to destroy the value of human labor (physical and mental) over the next several decades, and under capitalism, the market value of a person translates directly to the amount of calories they can eat and cubic feet of shelter they can afford. When your value to society is all but nil, it makes sense that your allotment of space is little bigger than a coffin.

This is a quirky neo-bohemian thing for techies now but I can see it becoming commonplace under a pay-as-you-go no contract rental system in the future. Although I also think homelessness is going to be normalized in the future as well so this sort of thing won't look nearly as bad as the alternatives for most people when the climate change apocalypse really hits.
1Password is miles ahead. Its UX is WAY better, as is its cryptography architecture and its security whitepaper (https://1passwordstatic.com/files/security/1password-white-p...). Bitwarden doesn’t even come close.
Scalability comes at a price. Unless you need it, it makes you less flexible. And that is exactly what you don't want to be as a startup.

For instance, if you use postgres with a low load, it is almost trivial to migrate schemas, add new constraints, do analytics etc.

If you use SQS, Cassandra, whatever, then you now get scalability/availability but it becomes much more time-consuming to change things if you figure out that your original design doesn't work. Say the business comes and says "please add constraint X. All users of type foo must never combined value bar at the same time."

It is possible to implemented that without postgres, but it is not easy or simple, especially if you need to make changes.

Therefore, my take is that you either use postgres to stay flexible or you use both postgres and something else on top of it when you know that you won't have to change things. Of course this means additional infrastructure/maintenance overhead.

In the end it's always a trade-off, you just need to know when to trade which thing off against what.
> I reached out to this company, and they’re basically saying that I have to prove without a doubt that these hundreds of tickets aren’t mine

> He had given them an example of a specific ticket he had gotten that implicated a Honda. Online, that record had been changed to an Infiniti with Taranto’s VIN

This needs to be regulated or outlawed. Private companies shouldn’t have the power to fine individuals, let alone treat them as guilty until they prove their own innocence, or retroactively modify fines to suit their agenda.
Further, those numbers alone could also be very good: it could just mean that less people get and will get homeless.

That's of course not the case and the actual situation is not good, just sayin'. Good case of how you can spin statistics to tell a story.
Still waiting for my Claude keys
No. Not without a proper examination by someone who knows historical cryptography techniques, those used before computers. I'd expect the only real threat to be an automated transformer AI solution actively looking for these types of algorithmic passwords, and one which already has access to a few of my passwords. Which is extremely unlikely given that no one uses algorithmic passwords. I was using a separate algorithm for more critical things, like my Google account but I deemed it unnecessary after some time because there is virtually no chance someone will crack it.

Though I should admit I still didn't migrate all my passwords to the latest and safest specification of the algorithm.

Only using digits limits the probabilities space drastically.
Is there anywhere I can look to see the proposed deal?
Yeah it blows my mind that the judge has the ability to do this. As the article says he is basically sealing stuff on the basis that Google said it could be "clickbait" if it was in the media.

It's early days yet but this is so far shaping up to be the weakest anti-trust trial yet - weaker than Microsoft and many prior trials, because of Judge Mehta.

Fuck this guy. Amit Mehta exemplifies the problem with the system, and the failure of the American government. He is a disgrace to his position.

Free market competition rarely develops without regulation and/or government/public oversight.

With no external control businesses tend to form cartels and/or adopt practices and regulations that are more hostile towards both consumers and workers than what governments can come up to.

On average anyway. Of course there markets and goods which are somewhat immune to this and exceptionally incompetent governments which can do significantly more harm than good.
I wouldn’t attribute this to immigration. Generally (eta: in my understanding in the usa where this study also is) immigrants are job creators and entrepreneurs, and take less from the system than native born people do. I otherwise agree the homeowning NIMBY class who want to retain neighborhood character or whatever suck, because as a consequence they are restricting housing. I also want to point the finger at corporations that buy up housing as an investment; there’s no reason any Corp should be buying up residential family housing and bleeding people dry through rents.
> The new CEO concerns me. I didn't know who the founder was but I always had the impression it was a lone hacker. They passed the baton. Now it's some old Web 1.0 guy who was the CEO of eFax in the 90's.

This sounds like ageism to me. I don't know if this guy is any good or not, but calling out someone as a 'concern' just because they were successful in the past isn't a good look. Is there anything more substantive behind your concern?

Hey - i work for Netdata on ML.

We have recently created enterprise self hosted options for bigger customers who can't use cloud etc. (prob not as relevant here)

For self hosted at a smaller scale then you can have your own parent with multiple children streaming to it.

This is an example demo node which is also a parent for some other demo nodes. None of these need to be claimed to or signed in to cloud:

https://sanfrancisco.my-netdata.io/

It uses the same actual dashboard as cloud so that we only have one dashboard to maintain so you get the cloud dashboard locally basically and the parent can then kind of act like its own little Netdata Cloud.

A handful of features not available this way since they depend on the metadata being stored in cloud as opposed to on a parent node but we are trying to bridge that gap where possible such that the metadata could actually live on a parent.
you don't need to scap anything if you use netdata cloud see https://blog.netdata.cloud/introducing-netdata-source-plugin...
3d touch is NOT simply "faster to respond".

The whole point is that, it enables a whole new type of interaction, that is: press to get into cursor mode -> hover over a word -> press again to select it. This is simply impossible without 3d Touch.

The fact that I've see this exchange many times ("But cant you long press to get a cursor?" / "Yes but 3d touch is faster"), even from people defending it, is so fun to me because it means the technology really was misunderstood, and explains a lot about why Apple killed it...

Idk if you can tell, I'm a fan of 3dTouch.

Highly skewed distributions often lead to unintuitive results.
Define over the wire here then.

The article mentions 0.8gb/s to 1.8gb/s throughput.

If youre downloading something off the internet, the bottleneck isn't going to be converting the strings to ints.

Further if you're downloading that much data, it suggests even more that you should be using a more space efficient representation.

And they want to screw everyone else again.

"We have the means to end homelessness in older adults. By increasing affordable housing for older adults, engaging in targeted prevention efforts, and building off the success of permanent supportive housing, we can make homelessness for older adults rare and brief."

Why are homeless baby boomers any more of a problem than entire generations that have been condemned to perpetual renting? Generations that never had access to affordable housing (like boomers had) are much more likely to end up homeless as they grow old. Yet, here we are discussing how to save those poor boomers instead of addressing the systemic inefficiencies their generation created.
Yes, I fell for the clickbait :)

> At the end of the day, a good person can't be convinced to engage in terrorism or violence of any kind

This implies that only full pacifists can be good persons. Because for everyone else, there is a situation in which they will engage in violence, and all you have to do is fool them into thinking they're in that situation.

Instead of morally corrupting someone, all you have to do is fool them about what the facts are.

And that is a lot easier, and it's what the FBI in fact does. From police work, they know exactly the type who can be convinced to not only confess whatever you like, but come to believe it too. The world is full of people with little faith in their own perception, memory or understanding of reality, and they are not any more likely to be principled pacifists than anyone else.
