The whole point of isolating the keys dataset is that you can reason about it differently. You frame these "concessions" as dealbreakers, but I don't think that's supported. Can you explain why this dataset would need cold snapshots retained past a period users would accept as a delay for guaranteed account deletion---say, two weeks? Replication already has you covered on acts of god, so we're worried about things like bad code pushes, "hackers", and so on.

I'm one of the people you're talking about. I tried it and it had the opposite effect.

I tried to do it with the plain forms once about 15 years ago. Somehow I ended up reporting the same input twice or something? I'm still not sure what I did wrong, but I ended up getting taxed for income that didn't exist. I didn't know how to correct it. I wrote letters and called the IRS probably dozens of times. I spent more than 50 hours poring through documents trying to figure it out. I tried to find an accountant that could understand what was happening. Eventually, it went away. I'm not sure what I did differently or if the IRS just got tired of dealing with me and waived it.

I was probably doing all of this incompetently, but I could not get a "foothold". I have somewhat of a tax phobia to this day.

The problem had something to do with some independent contracting I had done that year. I just resolved not to do that anymore.
But why not? Intruders attempting escalation leave all sorts of detritus.
The Price of Money Is Going Up, and It's Not Because of the Fed
Because OP isn't actually describing the software lifecycle, but rather the business or services lifecycle. Our society is so steeped in the business imperative of creating ongoing reliance on services, often with such relationships being marketed as "software", that the two are commonly conflated.

I get the impression there's an attitude from the newer generation of tech workers--the ones that are more progressive and less libertarian--about their right to unionize. They were so interested in union politics and the reading about the glory days of unions that they overlooked their current situation.

You don't sell a company to break up a union and lay off half the staff. Bandcamp wasn't a good fit any more, and it was over-staffed. Unions worked during their heyday because there was a labor shortage, so they had leverage. Bandcamp employees didn't have that leverage.

> Not logging those trees is neither conservation...

not chopping forests is by definition, a basic advise in all serious treatises know by men, on conservation of biodiversity on forest ecosystems [1]

[1] Only exceptions when is a mono-culture, or when we deal with alien species

Yes, I know that biodiversity can increase in ecotones. But to have a forest boundary, you need to have a forest first.

> ... or sequestration

trees take CO2 from the air and store it in wood, a structure that can last potentially for several hundreds or even thousands of years. Half of this structure is buried in the soil. Tons of carbon. If this is not the very own definition of sequestration of CO2, I don't know how to call it.

A sofa can't grow.

> those crops not only would sequester carbon faster most likely (if you buried them)

What crops? corn? wrong. The soft wood Paulownia? Wrong again. The Paulownia superfast thing is based in a lie.

> but be far more scalable and efficient in doing so.

Again wrong

Admission? Like the commenter is some kind of representative?

And while unions aren't homogenous, they generally don't protect incompetence. I've known people in unions that got fired for poor performance, generally. But if I was a cook and cut off a finger while making some company profitable, my performance would certainly suffer while it was healing, and lots of companies world very much rather stop paying me. So in that case yes, I very much hope that a union would protect people from that performance-related loss of employment.

Ah ok - I must have misremembered.

This is probably due to the weirdness of that flight. It was our last day in the US and we were to fly from PHX to ODR at, say, 16:00 to fly back to France the next day. We were earlier than planned at PHX and there was an earlier flight to ORD.

I asked if we can take that one - no problem. It is only when the planse started and the crew announced that we are flying to Portland that I thought WTF??

And this is how I discovered that a flight labelled A to B in the US can actually mean A to B via C where C is on the other side of the country. Kinda our city bus or underground... :)

We met very nice people, though, and I had an interesting discussion about the US. My son discussed with a lady in another row and she wanted him to meet his daughters when they will be in Paris :)
There are plenty of compounds that aren't broken down by digestion. Salmon flesh is pink because of the astaxanthin in its natural diet, for example.

And the article doesn't make any mention of which specific biomarkers they chose or whether they're affected by digestion. They're obviously pretty hardy compounds to begin with if they're not broken down by saliva to begin with, or thousands of years of natural decay.

And it does seem kind of akin to carbon-14 dating. It's not like they found actual recognizable pieces of the plants in between their teeth or anything.

> AIs and other opaque processes making decisions are incredibly frustrating.

Simply better messaging would fix most of this.

One approach is to be upfront and say:

Our automated AI systems have decided that it probably isn't in our best interests to do business with you. We can't elaborate on why, because that would give clues to spammers to help evade our detection of them. However, if you are willing to pay us $15, we will have a human look at your case and make the decision instead. You will be able to send evidence to the human (for example evidence of legitimate sales, a registered company, etc.). The human will be able to ask for further information, but will not be able to tell you the reason for any rejection. Your $15 will not be refunded if your case is rejected. Before you do, double check that your use isn't borderline on our rules and T&C's - human review isn't an opportunity to push the boundaries of what is allowed.

I will never understand why Facebook isn't willing to take action against known phishing pages/advertisers, and even let them boost post with advertising, while legitimate advertisers get much less impression. At one point, a scam about high-return investment targeting elders are very common. The same applies to online gambling (it may be legal in many countries like the Philippines, but not in my country) and 419 scam (known in my country as "call center scam")

Another annoying things is the use of affiliate links to online marketplace (Lazada is a notable example; sometimes it can lead to a more sinister destination, such as malware-dropping site) masquerading as a link to news site, which was often spammed in a comment below the news post. They even typed in my language even though the account appears to be based in Indonesia or the Philippines. I have heard numerous people reporting this, but so far the situation isn't improving at all (and can even get worse)
Is it still unprecedented if it's common knowledge that they do it all the time, and have been doing it for decades?

I mean they really don't even hide the fact that they clone pretty much any commercial product we send them. Most firms consider it to be the cost of doing business. The only way to avoid it is to not have your products made in China. The state has access to whatever IP you put into that country. Just assume that before you send anyone in China anything at all. The state will get a copy.

In reality it is a failure of ITAR to not do a better job of securing our (western) technology. We control innovation, yet we allow our own technology to fall into the hands of people who use it against us to steal yet more technology.

For example, MS$ could brick every Windows PC in China if they wanted to. And they wouldn't be able to do anything about it. They are 20 years behind us in that industry.

Why do we give China the same courtesy that we give western nations who play fair? We keep hearing people in the tech and entertainment industries who are being pushed around to comply with Chinese rules, regulations, cencorship, ect. Why? We hold the keys to this kingdom. Time to take our ball and go home.
The dealer wasn’t really lying just unclear. The car is not designed to stay fully electric until the battery hits zero because the ICE engine is only 150hp. Instead it’s optimized to be a hybrid that’s reserving battery power for acceleration, which lets the engine stay in more efficient and lower RPM ranges for much longer. You can press a button every time you get in to drain the battery but that’s really not the intended use.

Anyway, the subsidy is really designed to setup the used car pipeline. In 20 years someone with significantly less money is probably going to be driving your car and they aren’t going to be thrilled with having ~14mph.
He replied but I honestly think he's misremembering and/or forgot about the Z/80 card that was needed to run WordStar on an Apple II. He doesn't really answer the question that you asked:

I'm as confident as it's possible to be about 40 year old software that there was no WordStar for the Apple II that didn't require a Z/80 card (i.e., there was no native 6502 version.)

I most definitely do not intend for it to feel like an ad so I apologize if that's how it comes off. I chimed in with my perspective because a lot of the replies were looking at this news from the lens of "layoffs in tech" and I want to offer context as someone tangentially connected. I mentioned my involvement as a way of demonstrating my relationship to the situation and, sure, as a disclaimer in case someone wants to write me off.

You are correct in that most people do not know anything about what's happening. But Bandcamp is largely a platform that courts super-fans and a sizable portion of this people are keyed into independent music, with all its happenings and drama. This is especially true for the successful bands, labels, and journalists who use their platform. So while 99% of their users might have no idea, the 1% that does contains many people who are heavily involved in making and influencing independent music. We see visible evidence of this in the number of music news sites that are posting updates on the situation. And I see evidence through the volume and intensity of feedback I'm receiving.

Unions don't need a labour shortage to have power. Collective bargaining is its own leverage.

They tend to insist on due process for adverse actions, and management tend to hold out the idea that being able to dismiss arbitrarily without evidence or process is essential to efficiently dealing with incompetence.

After seeing a lot of AI art, you start to notice things, it's like the same thing that happened with photoshop years ago, a lot of people can identify if an image photoshopped just looking at it.
Both are not an exact science, so there are still false positives and false negatives. As generate AI progresses it will become harder to identify, while with photoshop it depends on the user's skill.

In this case, what makes me think it's AI generated, is an inconsistent mix between a 3d style render and digital painted art. The way it's lit. And after I already suspected, I looked at the keyboard because it's usually where AI fumbles the bag.
Congratulations, I'm very excited to take a look. A few questions:

1) Instructure Canvas is another open-core (AGPL) LMS with a billion dollar market cap company backing it. It has tons of features and users. Why build another AGPL LMS? Is it solely because their Rails tech stack is terrible?

2) Do you want other institutions and orgs to develop alongside you? The use of AGPL says no, you want to focus on cloud hosting. Why not build an MIT-licensed LMS to differentiate yourself?

3) Every LMS seems to suffer from feature bloat. Instructors come up with insane feature requests and pretty soon your gradebook supports 3 different types of grading, with points or percentages, dropping the lowest 3 of 7 grades in a weighted category. Do you go down this road of developing features for your power users like every other LMS? If not, how do you avoid it? I see you're already interested in SCORM (an abandoned standard from 30 years ago). How do you avoid chasing every standard, every package, every power user feature request?
Oh it's not possible, I don't know why I thought it was. What are you interested in exactly, and what kind of knowledge do you have about networking and cybersecurity?

I hate stuff like this, everyone is different, period. Learn what works for you. I've tried every type of diet under the sun over the years. Plant based, vertical diet, carnivore, Ray Peat inspired, keto with and without plants, full carnivore...what works best for me personally is whole foods plant based (I don't do well with histamines) - on a typical day of eating I'll get somewhere around 400g of carbs and something like 15% of my cals from fat. I stay lean as hell, my body loves carbs, including a ton of fruit. If I feel like I need some meat, I eat it.

That’s correct. RowHammer is a HW attack on the DRAM controller and how DRAM refresh works at a low level. Spectre/meltdown are a HW attack on the speculative execution unit within the CPU. Similar in terms of being HW attacks to exfil data across process boundaries. Different in that the former is more of a a physical attack while the latter is more of a logical side channel attack.
That is countered by the rest of my post, though? Having had some pets that I can leave open buckets of food out for them, and they don't gain weight, something else is clearly at play.

I'm open to the idea that, statistically, more people will eat more when given more. I'm... less open to the idea that we can't learn from looking at those that don't eat in excess in those situations.
I have a few questions about computer architecture for you hardware folks. These many core architectures get so complex. I'm a lowly scientist that does some fairly heavy compute in both interpreted languages (python) and compiled languages (c/julia). Two questions:

When these 'base clocks' are listed, would a lower core CPU with a higher base clock run more calculations at its max thread count than a higher core cpu? Say 64 threads on a 32 vore 4Ghz CPU vs a 2.5Ghz 96 core monster. For my use case I'm often running a serial computation on a fixed dataset that can be threaded per data point. So if I have 32 data points it's only that parallel. Something between embarrassingly parallel and completely serial.

And second. For these massive caches, if I'm doing a massive serial calculation does an individual core get to use the full cache if it's being thrashed? As in, are there cache benefits to running a computation on these huge CPUs vs some overclocked 8 core beast?

Maybe 30 years ago and entirely depends on the context--robbery generally involves the use of force or weapon. However, I regularly see shoplifting, open drug use, and other crimes that cops won't even come out for. I had someone hit and run on my car and the 911 dispatcher told me to file a 311 complaint.
