If you live in US you may be surprised at how state dependent this is, eg, my current state car insurance costs as much as my last states house mortgage (same cars and history), ie much more expensive and kinda makes me wish I had kept the house for our cars registrations.

I am not proposing any etymology. Just wanted to point that achar is not a loan word from Persian. It's not even the primary word for pickle in Persian actually (achar also means pickle but it sounds very odd in Persian, not an everyday word for pickle). That's what ticked me off about OP's comment. Pickle in Farsi is Torshi, especially in the Farsi that Mughals spoke (central Asian dialects). Afghans still call pickles torshi and not achar. On the other hand, my Nepali friends call their traditional pickles achar, and they have near zero Perso-Arabic influence in their vocabulary. In summary, there is no evidence that achar was a word brought in by the Mughals.

I couldn't find the etymology for achar, but I found references to classical Persian (Avestan) and Proto-Indo-Iranian. Apparently Ayurveda mentions achar, so it's possible that at some point there was a distinction between medicinal pickles and popular everyday pickles.

Nobody knows of course, but to me it's likely that achar has ancient origins, possibly in old Indus Valley or Gangetic Plains. In either case, history of pickle in Indian subcontinent and words used to describe isn't as simple as a loan word.
I have a friend who is a lawyer and has access to LexisNexis. When I found out what is in there for sale (and it's like a 30 year old service!), I kinda wanted to give up. It all feels like "Privacy Theater". Why would I worry about linked in when people can buy my most private info from so many places that I didn't even know existed?

Are we just kidding ourselves? (I live in the USA.)
In the age of 4K,8K video streaming, free efficient lossless codecs and yearly $1000 phone upgrades why do we even bother to ask the question of lossy vs lossless audio for entertainment? It's not a matter of disc capacity anymore. You can have the best for "free".

If we do ABX test you will find out that people can't even make the difference between the original artist and a cover artist let alone lossy vs lossless. Should we just use cover artists at concerts?

The brain adapts quickly to lower quality be it visual, audio, olfaction or gustatory. Does it mean we should ingest the most we can tolerate because we get used to it so we can run on more efficient/cheap resources/content ?
Would it be viable though if you need to include distribution and sourcing? I wonder at what scale this might work.
What does that cover though?

I hear you. I just got officially banned permanently yesterday. I do not use their app except the web. Last month I was kicked off because they claimed that I am using an automation tool, which I don’t. The second time they kicked me out, they asked me to confirm that I do not use an automation all. I said I don’t. Yesterday, I got kicked out and was told to upload a government id such as a driving license. Shortly after, I got a message “ We've deemed the activity in your account is in violation of the LinkedIn User Agreement and Professional Community Policies. Your appeal has been denied and your account has been restricted permanently.

Please see our User Agreement and Professional Community Policies for more information.”

I am not able to talk or ask anyone at LinkedIn why I have been banned. Is it because I don’t use their app? I don’t know.

It’s the next Web3. Comes and goes in waves.

Cue the AI fanbois saying “well actually, AI has a ton of positive uses because I recognize them, while Web3 has none, because I won’t recognize any uses as valid”

The upsides are only one part of the equation, the downsides of AI are destruction of all trust in digital media and claims, chaos on the web and social forums, job loss on a massive scale and and possible human exinction. AI will affect you with downsides whether you want it or not. By contrast the downsides of Web3 are bugs in smart contracts that can make some people lose some of the money that they voluntarily sent over to that contract.

The jurors heard where blood matching Nina Reiser's DNA was found. It was the entrance of the house where Hans lived after they separated and a sleeping bag cover in his car. Not the kitchen. They heard his claim she cooked there. They heard a witness admit bad technique meant the sample inside the house could have been Hans's blood mixed with other DNA from Nina. Saying the age couldn't be determined didn't help the prosecution. Reports at the time said it was the 1 piece of evidence the defense made reasonably doubtful.

I’m not sure that’s an efficient solution at all. If a kid gets hurt/lost in my neighborhood, I’d much rather be able to call their parents than add an entire extra step of calling the police and having the police call the parents.

I'm not sure why you are continuing because it's impossible to defend against all Sybil attacks in an open network.

>If your counter-point to that is that users will waste money then clearly this attack is not sustainable

One simple scenario where it is sustainable is when you are a part of a competitor's network where the existence of the other network results you in making less money. If the attacker wants to destroy the other network to gain market share they may be willing to have a budget they spend each month to attack it.

>And if your concern is so extreme that a whole network around a user is locked down

It's not extreme if there is to defense to it.

>it would take a lot of work to even get into one of these states

As I mentioned it is easy to run multiple instances of the software to become the majority of the network.

>The same way it's unlikely you will keep buying bread from the guy that charges twice the market rate.

If you check 100 stores in your area and they all charge that rate you may think that's the market rate.
> if LLMs were as intelligent as some people claim, you could stop them from doing something just by directly ordering them to do so

My mother is a pretty intelligent person by all accounts. Yet I have to tell her time and time again not to write down all her passwords in a password journal.

I write SaaS apps. The code I write and execute aren't intelligent. They obey my commands to the letter - and their unconditional adherence to my code sometimes results in buggy behaviors that I didn't intend. Despite my deepest wishes, my program will strictly obey the code as it is written and exhibit the buggy behavior until the command itself is amended.

If anything, more and more evidences seem to point to the fact that intelligence is the very thing that drives an entity to disobey a direct command and "think" for itself.
I'd put money on it being the difference in failure modes between an ICE and a BEV. If there's even the whiff of a possibility that the battery has been compromised, that's probably a write off. Prangs that wouldn't phase an ordinary car suddenly make a future thermal runaway a possibility, and you have to eat the loss of the value of the car.

I'd also question the whole reliability angle. In my current car, the engine is comfortably outlasting the electronics, because engines are easy to service and maintain. The equivalent doesn't really exist for electronics. You aren't going to rewind an electric motor every service interval; you just use it until it fails and then replace it. But the whole point of servicing is to prevent those failures before they happen. And a maintained engine probably lasts longer than electrical components that don't have preventative maintenance done on them.
Not yet, knock on wood. But it's a super stressful drive.

There's a simple solution to this, known since WW2: slash speed limits and enforce them.

Just about every externality of the car scales super linearly with speed. Furthermore, in reality, except for the interstate, ETA does not scale inversely with speed limit, but a bit better (kids try this at home!). On top of that, traffic is bounded by the bandwidth-latency product just like network traffic is.

This is the wrong question: the right question is whether public transit is more subsidized per passenger-mile (or freight mile) than our road networks.

(Even more abstractly, it doesn’t matter whether or not public transit is highly subsidized, so long as the positive externalities of that subsidization are deemed worth it. You don’t get to the size and density (and corresponding economic output) of cities like NYC by allocating personal parking space for every resident.)
It's just a classic F.U.D (fear, uncertainty and doubt) tactic
It's marginally better... but not by much. If privacy is that much of a concern, then it's feasible to roll out your own version of JS challenges, delay functions, & captchas, but that's additional complexity that could otherwise be farmed out to Cloudflare themselves or another provider.

Ideally, a self-hostable instance with an exposed API would be preferred, but the captcha for such an instance would be reverse engineered & subsequently broken, rendering it worthless.
Just out of curiosity, in the UK can you get a minimal form of coverage that covers injury/damage to other parties, but not repair of your own vehicle?

For sunburns obviously

Even if you doubt the efficacy against skin cancer, sun burns are easily observed in short time
If the city you live in has been entirely designed around private motor vehicles and lacks any decent transit network (LA being the obvious example), no amount of investment into helping the mentally ill and drug addicts is going to make transit an attractive option for more than a tiny percentage of the population.

Thankfully in Australia's biggest cities our public transport systems are generally clean and safe to use - but a) they're not always super reliable, despite some improvements in recent years b) they're often poorly interconnected, meaning I could potentially do 80% of the journey sitting in comfort on a train, but spend 3 times longer than it would take to drive trying to deal with getting to/from train stations and c) there are still huge areas of said cities that are fairly poorly served by trains, and buses will always be a second rate way of getting around. Oh and d) you can't carry v. large items or animals on most public transport (*). All solvable problems, some easier than others, but there's a distinct lack of real political will to do so.

(*) e.g. it'd be a 15 min train ride to take my dog to the beach from where I live, but she's not a service animal so wouldn't even be allowed on, despite taking up less space than a human.

DMARC still has some issues. From a few years ago: https://i.blackhat.com/USA-20/Thursday/us-20-Chen-You-Have-N...

> Unfortunately, neither SPF nor DKIM provides a complete solution for preventing email spoofing. SPF authenticates the HELO/MAIL FROM identifier and DKIM authenticates the d= field in DKIM-signature header: neither of them authenticates the From header displayed to the end-user, which means that even if an email passes SPF and DKIM validation, its From address can still be forged.

A lack of DMARC+ on an email domain is definitely a problem, but DMARC+ alone still doesn't solve the "is this the real sender" problem.
Yeah, definitely a case-by-case basis situation, but I think with "modern" apps this is not a great approach. The situation you describe walking into is definitely horrible and adding some discipline and especially a solid DBA or lead can mitigate a lot of damage. I've seen plenty of outages caused by some dev not understanding the query their ORM was generating taking down production at the worst possible time, and this approach can help.

This once was the "correct" way to do things, period. At least that's how I learned it originally. If you go a back a couple of decades, "users" in a RDBMS meant literally end users, using a client application to directly query the DB from their desktop machine and whatever permissions they had was what they had. In this environment locking down everything except stored procedures and views was the only way to go. (Interestingly, we've sort of seen a resurgence of this design recently with some of these PaaS based web applications where all the logic is living client-side somewhere in a React app.)

After that indoctrination I remember feeling very resistant initially to a lot of this and in particular the practice of just granting full read/write access to a service account and letting developers write whatever they wanted, but times change. We were working under different constraints at the time. If you have services scoped to a specific responsibility and they completely own their own data and don't have the situation you describe of many clients touching the same DB, a lot of the problems that the proc+views only pattern were intended to solve just go away on their own.

In Nederland, Texas you're in a small community right in the middle between Beaumont, Port Arthur, and Orange, Texas, which are known as the "Golden Triangle". These have been major refining and petro-chemical centers dating back to the wild oil gusher known as Spindletop over 100 years ago which really made Texas known as an oil producing state.

Now each of the towns' refineries and chemical plants have grown in response to consumer demand for automotive fuel, but these are not really big cities and they don't have the number of cars you get in Dallas or Houston.

But you still get some fine particulates that build up after a while, like when you wake up and find a layer on your car after you just washed it the day before.

Even when it was black it wasn't tire dust, and sometimes there would be brown, white, grey, or yellow. You never knew what you were going to get and when. Depending on the wind it could be a discharge from Mobil in Beaumont, Texaco in Port Arthur, or DuPont in Orange.

This is what you get before the fuel even makes it into your tank, so that everyone can spread their tire dust all over the rest of the country.

I've also spent time near the 10 freeway, in Texas. A major cross-country thoroughfare for 18-wheelers.
Can't speak to what's on offer, but legally you only need liability insurance (the type you described).

> As a bit of a pickle enthusiast, I must object to the idea that it is "vegetables in vinegar and not a lot else". I was looking at making various Japanese pickles [...]

To be clear I said 'most' and I meant only to be talking about what's prevalent in the UK, but I appreciate that wasn't clear in that paragraph (I only said 'non-Indian/inspired').

But anyway it was only to pander to 'sure you [the other commenter] might be thinking a pickle means a different looking thing', when my whole point was yes I agree it's a pickle, I'm absolutely not saying a pickle needs to be only vinegar and vegetable, or very liquidy, or really anything more strict than just that it be anaerobically fermented. (I'd far sooner/do exclude 'quick pickle', 'fridge pickle', et al. than achar!)

Since you mention 'oil-pickled products from Italy', a Delia-inspired favourite of mine is what she calls 'gardeners pickle' (pickles giardiniere) - the gist is roughly chopped vegetables (I think she includes mushrooms, fennel, onions, courgettes, aubergine, peppers, and tomato) in oil, vinegar, and salt. My frequently make it with just courgette and onion, perhaps plus cherry tomato - unfortunate bulk, with a piercing to allow the vinegar to penetrate they really are delicious! I eat it mostly on fresh bread with vintage cheddar (that's very mature, salty, I'm not sure it's available like that in the US - cheddar on the whole is not the same, and 'sharp' is not it) but it's also excellent as an addition to gazpacho - it's basically the same thing unblended after all.

"Participants in her study who were assigned drinks containing sucralose, a popular artificial sweetener, displayed no negative effects. But a cohort given the same drink with a liquid form of carbohydrate added — intended purely as a control group for the main study — showed signs of impaired metabolism, potentially leaving them vulnerable to problems such as weight gain and glucose intolerance.

It's always this circular logic where "I need my car because the supermarket is an hour walk" but the supermarket is an hour walk because everyone drives.

It's mind boggling how much resources get poured in to cars and car infrastructure only to provide a slower, inefficient, more expensive, and toxic system. Feels like the next generation is seeing this now and things are slowly starting to change in some countries. Not sure how fast we can undo decades of damage and corporate brainwashing though.
