>Although the Waffen-SS as a whole was declared to be a criminal organization at the Nuremberg Trials, the Galician Division has not specifically been found guilty of any war crimes by any war tribunal or commission. However, numerous accusations of impropriety have been leveled at the division

There are questions that have never been answered properly. From what I understand OUN/UPA,Galician Division did not have the machinery in place to kill 100k + Poles. Their tactics and their primary purpose was to protect and defend Ukrainian lives from Russian communists. Further more most of Western Ukrainians are a mix of Polish/Ukrainian peoples.

We need to be mindful that there is much Russian propaganda concerning many of these kinds of events as it was advantageous for the the Communists to try and seed lies into the historical record.

> The questioner specifically asked how the US military might respond if Russia attacked SpaceX's Starlink broadband network

> Saltzman didn't directly address the scenario posed in the question

> In a modern war, "there are going to be commercial entities, commercial organizations, commercial capabilities and assets that get caught up in the conflicts," Saltzman said. "Space is no different than sea lanes. It’s no different than civilian airliner traffic in Europe right now. The US has a long history of saying we’re going to protect the things that we need to be successful. So it would stand to reason that that same philosophy would extend into space, and I have no reason to believe that that will be different.”

Not much here, just a reasonable, seasoned response expertly crafted to avoid using SpaceX as a specific example. A+
Cartography can also model any consistent universe, and I fail to see how that changes anything for the “it’s just a model” argument.

We can permutate and enumerate symbols for mountains, rivers and roads on a piece of paper. Maybe we would even get some “interesting” results like a map of the Lords of the Rings universe. How would that change anything?
Why doesn’t anyone who tells such stories also reference the game and the company that made it? Wouldn’t it be good to call out the actors explicitly?
Norway, Sweden and Denmark takes 25%. Hungary shamelessly demands 27%
It seems like a common occurrence for me to google some slightly obscure question and not see any directly relevant search results except a Quora link (usually the other results have my keywords but don't answer the specific question). When I click on the Quora link, I'll find that someone else has asked my exact question but there are no answers. I appreciate the ChatGPT answer because my next step would probably be ChatGPT and it saves me a few clicks.

(Based on the other comment, now I wonder if I just didn't find the human answers due to bad UI.)
Absolutely rock solid for me.

Have you tried running it with a freshly created profile?
The Firefox bug tracker is full of thousands of bugs with some sitting there for 10-15 years. I’d like to see way more focus on cleaning these up than new features and UI changes.

Certificates are just some company that charges you to take their test and present the cert on the resume. They are by no means a method for employee solidarity, nor do they remotely have the ability to protect tech workers.

They're as worthless of a piece of paper as your degree when shit hits the fan.
Yeah, I think that has the same origin. Though I'm not sure if programming languages or maths came first. Apparently, for programming languages it appeared first in ALGOL in 1958[1].

Edit: On math.SE[2] someone claims that it's notation borrowed form programming. Someone else claims that it was introduced by Bourbaki, which might predate programming, as Bourbaki started publishing in the 1930s. However, I couldn't find any evidence of this from skimming a few Bourbaki PDFs.

I think there's a major player here that most adults overlook because it's a bunch of kid-created nonsense: Roblox.

This platform is absolutely rife with gambling and scammy currency-spending mechanics, and all of this is directed towards children. You're constantly bombarded with pay-to-win, pay-to-cheat, pay-to-play, one-arm bandit, "donation" requests, "invite your friends to unlock", literally every dark pattern you can imagine... all on top of near-constant copyright and trademark violations.

I'm entirely convinced that this platform only exists because it's too annoying for adults to even scrutinize too closely but they pull in huge amounts of money from this stuff.
I can't remember which election it was, but the 3D animated character was pushing the limits of real-time rendering for its day when he appeared on a morning talk show and answered questions live. So the live thing has been around for quite some time. The deep fake just allows for the models to look believable. Once you have a model, you can make it do anything.
We have an interesting hybrid between the two that I'd like your take on. When we release new versions of our web client static assets we have a version number that we bump that moves folks over to the new version.

1. We could stick it in a standard conf system and serve it up randomly based on what host a client hits. (Or come up with more sophisticated rollouts)

2. Or we can put it as "perm" conf in the feature flag system and roll it out based on different cohorts/segments.

I'm leaning towards #2 but I'd love to understand why you want to prohibit long lived keys so I can make a more informed choice. The original blog posts main reasons were that FF systems favor availability over consistency so make a pour tool if you need fast converging global config, which somewhat becomes challenging here during rollbacks but is likely not the end of the world.
So it could only be launched at night?)
I think the reason for this is who the cyber weapons are pointed at. It's not common soldiers or random citizens in a war zone. It's aimed at politicians and media. I don't how much everyone else cares about this (not that they shouldn't) but if politicians and the media are worried about it then we're going to hear about it a lot and in rather breathless terms.

> 1. Have you ever been laid off from a job for reasons that were not related to your performance?

Yes. Only once, and it happened in March as a part of a cost cutting exercise.

I was working at the company - a product startup - for 2.5 years.

> 2. Did this affect your job search / career afterwards?

No. I went back to my previous employer where I worked for 6 years, they were gracious enough to welcome me back.

The only thing that bothers me at times is the pay differential - I had to take a paycut moving back to my older org.

> 3. Do you feel that being laid off from a job prevented you from recovering due to social stigma around being under / unemployed?

To an extent, yes. The initial days were the hardest as I thought I was untouchable as an employee - I've been a top performer for a majority of my career - so being laid off was definitely a shock.

It took a few weeks to get over it but it was fine as soon as I had a job in hand.
Indeed the tribal mob politics has gotten completely out of hand here.

The only upside here is all the parties in parliament applauded the guy, so there's limited possibility for it becoming a "F*ck Trudeau" crowd issue. Their own tribe were right there, applauding the same guy.

I'm not arguing the government should step in and massively regulate speech. I'm just saying I'm not exactly excited for where we're going on this ride. I think it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better.

Hey thanks for giving Flipt a look! I'm the creator of Flipt so would love to chat more about your needs to see how we could make it work for your use case! We're actively looking into providing local caching for all our SDKs btw and would love to learn more about what your requirements are for remote configuration as it's also on our radar!
Feel free to send me an email at: mark (at) flipt.io.

Did he get caught then and suffer actual consequences? Because if not it's not as if character development happens automatically, especially if there are significant gains to be had from cheating.
I venture canceling the contracts/flights would have been cheaper than keeping them though.
It's also leading to the widespread sharing of poorly though out or researched ideas. While there has always been a tension between "truth" and what various entrenched powers wanted to portray to the population, it's not clear to me that the world is better with lots of niche groups believing things that a little bit of additional research would show to be based on demonstrably false reasoning.
It's really gross that the BBC are taking the shamelessly crass question by Piers Morgan during his interview and running it in their headline. It's a classic case of "damned if you, damned if you don't" for Niemann. No one has ever seriously believed this accusation, but this is the first time he's been asked the question point blank and so he had to give an answer. I don't expect any less from Piers Morgan, but we should leave the shameless style of interview question to his corner of journalism and not promote it.
7G images, wow
It seems unlikely it has a true CO2 sensor for that price point (it could, but the bom price of just the module is over $20). The co2 "equivalent" from VOC sensors is pretty crappy in my experience.
No. Local translations and blurred video calls background are (unironically) very important.
This is what I do. I don't use aliases.

> I showed you how you do not lose a command. That is all.

I know. I understand your point, but yours is a very pedantic (sorry, was unable to find a gentler word) take on the issue.

In the heat of debugging some prod problems, the need to remember which commands are overridden by aliases and the effort required to remember full paths is an extra mental load. This is why it's better to not use aliases or be super careful, or at least prefix them with a common character is useful.

There's something called scaling cost. It's not only valid for infrastructure or software architecture. The customization you do, or the procedures you follow need to be able to scale too. I recently had to abandon Tiddly Wiki for Obsidian, because the work required to maintain that corpus of information became accidentally quadratic, and started to eat into my productivity and time. Aliases and terminal customization are also affected by this phenomena.

Anyone with a half-functioning brain knew USB-C was coming to the iPhone well before the EU decision. It's so annoying to see so many people parrot this line. Apple was one of the first to go all-in on USB-C and has been slowly expanding it to whole line. It only makes sense that the iPhone was the last to get the change.

> Small businesses that were previously tax-exempt may need to register or risk losing clients — but if they do register, they will have to pay an additional 10% in taxes.

I can understand, and in Switzerland you are tax-excempt if you are (each year) under 100k revenue. However, you won't be able to get the tax others have on their bill back then (input tax).

Besides that, taxes for revenue exist because a country (shall) provide value to you (like safety or administrative stuff, like debt collection). And this stuff must be paid too.
> This is equally fascinating to me. Before each flight, someone had to generate a flight plan and punch it onto a physical tape, then load it into the plan. T

> No mid-flight "re-calculating route" if stuff goes wrong.

From what I understand of the manual[0], the system doesn't get completely lost if the crew decides to abort and fly away or something. The preprogramming is mainly so the sensors and camera automatically engage at the predefined points in the planned flight.

Reviews for the PC version of Triple Town on GOG says the same thing. They removed the option to spend real money, that was part of the popular mobile version, but they did not replace it with anything else, so supposedly you have to grind forever to get anywhere.

Pity since are some mobile games that look like pretty good games. If only all the built-in gambling was removed and the game re-balanced (and drm-free) I would be happy to buy them, for my phone or desktop. But that is almost never an option.
BNB is a token issued by Binance to faciliate trading on their platform. If it dropped in value, it could indicate a lack of confidence in the platform itself (it's price could also be manipulated of course).

"BNB can be used to pay for fees when trading on Binance, and usually at a discounted rate. Due to the primary utility, BNB has seen massive growth in interest throughout the years . Several rounds of token burn events have appreciated BNB price and pushed it up as one of the top-10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization."

Hi, I've kept the user management server both simple (MVP) and focused on reducing the time it takes for application developers to build/integrate user authentication.

But so far LLMs are mostly controlled and used by corporations, how does that help?
I don't claim to read minds or have inside information, but there's no doubt in my mind that this is largely a $450mil annual hedge against getting antitrust'd by the DOJ.
We are tired of the fear mongering and propaganda. We have seen the internet work just fine with and without net neutrality - its a micro-optimization as far as I am concerned.

Political capital is limited. Instead of wasting it rehashing this bandaid, why not campaign for something like municipal internet that would fundamentally solve the problems of ISPs?

> Video Effects and background blur are now available to Firefox users on Google Meet! (Note: These effects have also been released retroactively to support Firefox versions back to Firefox 115.)

Now, does everyone know where the issue actually was? Giving that all of a sudden is retro-compatible, I would say at least a good chunk of the issue was on Google side

"Literal FDA-levels of regulation" demonstrably does not accomplish that. The FDA was fine with what the Sacklers/Purdue Pharma were doing; lawsuits filed by states and others got something (not enough) done about it, but the FDA and their regulations were no help.
Why are exchanges/onoff-ramps needed??

Mining, swaping, burning, spending is enough. And where it's not, the use-case is not decentralized (has centralized governance or has known membership) & can be achieved more efficiently via fiat.
For their time, sure.

But that doesn't help with today's devices. Even $10 boards are multicore now and come with hundreds megs of RAM.

At least in garbage collected OS design, the lessons from 1970's and 1980's are interesting, but do not directly apply to modern systems.

Someone already linked Notion.so and you didn't seem to find it complex enough?

The reality is there's a continuum between what is fluff and what is providing value you don't see.

I agree a lot of web development ceremony is misguided and of dubious benefit, but you're seemingly against even basic state propagation.

But you also seem biased in thinking of systems where you can hold the whole thing in your head.

When a site like Facebook shows you a chat message, there are is the an iceberg of functionality that you don't see and can't imagine with that bias.

You think "I'd just use JS and add a div styled like X", and Facebook probably has more JS to enable defining what X looks like because that div can have anything from a text message, to a video, to a chess move from a FB game, than you can picture for an entire site.

The analytics and tapbacks and a million little features that would make for hundreds of listeners on some seemingly simple component

At the end of the day not everyone is making Facebook, so I agree people are complicating things for dubious benefit, but not so much that basic React is problematic: even for small applications it's a cheap way to support the "combinatorial explosion of edge cases" problem of product development.

You add one edge case to a state change you wired with plain JS and things are fine. But then you add an edge case to that edge case, and so on, and eventually you'll either just have a worse version of what React offers, or an unapproachable mess of code.
A lot of these comments reflect never having lived in a rural or underserved area.

Like most services in life, if you live a relatively upper class life in a competitive market, things like net neutrality are probably not gonna be very loud on your radar.
I encountered some of this recently when I was confirming GPT hallucinated some Roman history (that Roman politicians would duel). It can be harder to be sure something DIDN'T happen, but Quora was the perfect service because someone had asked just this question and there was a quality answer that this wasn't a thing at all in Rome. But above everything was a ChatGPT answer with even more hallucinated details about Roman duels!

The irony is that with just a tiny bit more engineering Quora could use the answers it has to keep ChatGPT from hallucinating. Why create this database of curated answers and then just ignore it? I get why other services would want to trade ease for factuality (still a bad choice, but selfishly useful for them) but Quora can't even seem to value the very thing that makes it unique?
Whatsoever algorithm they use is some variation of taking the diff of engine moves vs. historically played moves vs. moves played at a certain rating. This is not complicated, contentious nor does it sound like it is worth of a trade secret.

Even if they do wish to use a private or proprietary standard to ban or suspend a user officially, they can still use a public standard (can even publish the code on Github for example) and show a standing statistic on a player's profile page using that public algorithm.
Obligatory "use Firefox" comment:

Not related to the release notes, but I've recently discovered Chrome is unusable for my use case.

I have two M-processor based MacBooks in the house - one runs mullvad (WireGuard), and the other a company OpenVPN.

For some reason, both have major issues with Chromium-based software. I get ERR_NETWORK_CHANGED every couple of minutes and nothing can load. It kills XHR requests as well, so most web software becomes totally unusable. This also applies to Electron-based software like Discord and Bitwarden. Oddly, Slack seems unaffected so far but maybe it hides it / retries better.

I don't know what its problem is, but the issue does not affect WebKit or Gecko or any other software on the machine requiring networking. So I've dumped Chrome everywhere. I've spoken with several others that are affected by this but I have not found any bug reports mentioning this so I gave up.

I've been on Firefox for ages for personal use, but I can't even use Chrome at work anymore. I'm not sure how they expect people to use this browser in Enterprise with such a glaring issue.
