That's crazy.

However, I'm still left wondering how Roundup-resistant crops work. It's not the effects of Glyphosate they are resistant to, but rather the effects of the "inert" ingredients?

Edit: Also... it turns out that glyphosate is safe?! Conspiracy theory: they found a safe chemical, glyphosate, named it the "active" ingredient, and focused all the research around that ingredient, knowing that it would be found safe. Then they were free make pesticides from unsafe chemicals, swap new ones in, etc.
Finally releasing my game and its source for free after seven years
After seven years of on-and-off work, having a kid, the pandemic, and failing to find a publisher to fund it, I'm finally releasing my puzzle-platforming Metroidvania game, Moustachevania, for free along with its source code.

This was built in Unity.

I'm happy to answer any questions about building the game or why I wasn't able to find a publisher and/or finish the game.

Source code: https://github.com/swivelmaster/moustachevania

> We tend to assume this is lawful interception Hetzner and Linode were forced to setup based on German police request.

This seems to be somewhat jumping the gun I think.

Given the certs and the target assuming it's an lawful interception seems reasonable.

But there is nothing there which requires Hetzner or Lindoe complying or knowing about this.

Given the nature of the attacks you can do the interception on the carrier level, and carriers being forced to comply with lawful wiretapping is pretty much anywhere in the world pretty much standard and many laws are based around that approach. Much less so around approaches involving data centers.
Sapolsky? He's got a book that's scheduled for early Nov 2023. These various "media appearances" that are popping up are simply looking to whip up interest in the book. That is, less like journalism and more like TMZ / PR.

Since we're talking about an industry (i.e., media) that doesn't know causation from correlation, I suspect to get a true and accurate understanding of his views you'll have to read the book.

Well, for one thing, open enrollment starts on November 1, so you can't get an ACA plan anywhere until then without a qualifying life event.

Also, if the website is broken, you should be able to call and talk to someone to get a plan. Not ideal but it's not like you're completely out of options.
go to pramp.com, get a handful of free interviews or do a paid interview, tell people in advance to be extra critical of you and hear what they say. Maybe you're coming off wrong. or maybe you're right and they lied.

However, I've never had a company that didn't want to pay say that. They have nothing to lose by saying "we decided that you are out of our budget".

My understanding is that this is a small energy-efficient chip for edge computing, like to stuff in an IoT device. Way too little memory to expect to run any recent language models, but could maybe do some basic object detection in a doorbell camera, for example.

The article's author seems to believe 224 megabytes is a huge amount of memory, and is a few orders of magnitude too low on the ChatGPT estimate too.
I credit a lot of my worldview and politics to the fact that I have a lot of friends who are poor and/or have chronic health conditions, and that I have to contrast that with my well-paying and secure tech job and other institutional advantages.

I've been with them on the phone and in waiting rooms, seeing firsthand how they have to navigate systems (both public and private) that are set up to fail -- public benefits systems that randomly corrupt their information and require them to prove they aren't defrauding the government, mental health hospitalizations that leave them more traumatized than when they entered, abusive bosses who take advantage of their precarity, systems that would leave me as an able-bodied/able-minded person absolutely exhausted and demoralized. And most of the time, all I can do is hug them, and send them money when things break down worse than usual.

It keeps me humble, and angry, and with a real sense of survivor's guilt.

> Can’t install another OS

What? AFAIK literally every chromebook model supports unlocking the bootloader and installing a replacement OS. Now in practice, you need some combination of (drivers)&&((OS that can handle the native firmware)||(replacement firmware)), but the situation appears decent; for x86 chromebooks, https://mrchromebox.tech/ supports many (most?) devices, and postmarketos seems to cover both ARM and x86 (see https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Chrome_OS_devices for details - it looks like they can handle x86 without replacing the firmware).
Don't worry so much about languages. If you specifically like web apps and Rails' ideals [0] then it's an obvious choice to look into. A lot of Ruby is Rails. But it's also worth looking into if you just like how it looks.

Does splitting here mean each person pays half of the price of the shared item? If so that puts more pressure on the lower earner. One approach would be to put both incomes in a big pot, take all the shared expenses from that pot, and then divide and distribute the rest between the two.

My experience in this area is quite dated, I don't want to give the impression I'm truly an expert in this area.

My guess- based on a few decades of working with DNA and RNA and proteins, is that it's unlikely a small amount of unintentional DNA in a vaccine would cause any detectable harm.

The argument is basically that the DNA would have to have very specific sequence to be transcribed by DNA Polymerase to RNA, the resulting RNA would need to have a very specific sequence to be translated, and to avoid being detected as foreign RNA (cells have a robust collection of tools to dice up invading DNA).

And I agree that the resulting proteins- even if through some extremely improbable event led to a small number of peptides or protein fragments were expressed, they would be "mopped up by the immune system", with some inflammation, as you say.

Witha ll that said I'm sure you can find examples of people who set up cellular experiments that demonstrated some injected DNA could be expressed, as biology is ultimately a probabilistic and stochastic system and there's always some level of nonspecific behavior that can't be ruled out.
>It did so by enriching the private insurers who basically run our health care system.

I might add at the expense of the middle class who now have much higher premiums with much higher deductibles.
there isn't even any guarantee that the wiretapping was done through them instead of e.g. the carriers which pretty much in any country have since decades been forced to help with lawful wiretapping...
Safari seems to be less intrusive about the boundary between profiles. For instance, you can use the same bookmarks and favourites if you wanted to, and you don't have to reinstall all extensions (just turn them on and off per profile).

You also don't need an account to create a profile (where I think Chrome requires sign in with Google for each profile, at least on iOS), Safari is happy to sync all profiles, extensions, tab groups, start page settings etc through iCloud with your Apple ID.
And the individual provisions of it tend to poll really well.

There’s also no onus on me to continue using packages that force me to spend valuable time fixing their breaking changes. My rule of thumb for dependencies is that, once I have to fix three or four breaking changes, the cost of switching to a more stable alternative or writing my own becomes more worth it.

There’s also the option of releasing a package called something like flask2_compatibility that monkeypatches flask3 to work with flask2

'Debit' only means 'the left hand side', and 'credit' only means 'the right hand side'.

Not only, and not even! The terms debit and credit have meaning independent of their columnar position on a traditional ledger. I could create a ledger with the columns reverse or (shocking!) use a computer program with a data structure that doesn't encode the concept of left or right.

I think about it like this:

CR / Credit / Creditors -> what the business owes
DR / Debit / Debtors -> what the business owns

Build what, and for whom?
Absolutely agree. Success in remote work is more about adaptable management and proactive communication, less about just having digital tools. It's a shift needing a deeper revision of traditional managerial practices. Digital communication can feel impersonal, and without meaningful interactions, a sense of detachment can creep in. It's up to the leadership to ensure tools like Slack and Zoom are used to foster connection, not just replace in-person interaction. The pandemic has truly tested adaptability for many organizations.
Do you not affirm your own ability to take self-directed (emotionally or otherwise) positions on how you think the world is? Does your assertion that consciousness itself isn't real not fit exactly into the basic idea that it is because you yourself are consciously favoring that assertion?

GPT doesn't sit there pondering consciousness and deciding, emotionally, that it thinks it's bullshit. It most certainly doesn't then decide, on its own volition, to go out into the web and comment this to others for the sake of debating them.

It doesn't sit there contemplating anything by its own volition unless its asked to. Regardless of what consciousness really is at its heart (I admit that we still don't fully know), it's a distinct self-motivated thing that we can see in our human selves and which is seen in no LLM except as a simulation produced by specific prompts.
It may be better for the XMPP ecosystem to focus on increasing adoption of channel binding rather than CT enforcement. I wrote briefly about the challenges faced by non-browser clients at <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36436303> but the tldr is that all SCT-checking clients have to be able to respond to ecosystem changes very quickly. This is so important that Chrome and Safari both disable SCT checking entirely if the browser hasn't been updated in more than 10 weeks.

Feel free to contact me (email in profile) or ask here if you want to talk more about this. I use XMPP (thank you for Prosody!) and have been involved in the CT space for many years now.
I spoke with my dentist yesterday a bit about nano-Hydroxyapatite. It didn't sound like he had heard about products using it, which I find a little odd because he's the one that mentioned Mi Paste to me 5 years ago. But he's a pretty old guy, he may not be keeping up with the latest. He said chemically it makes sense, and it probably won't do any harm, but he couldn't back it up with any science other than Hydroxyapatite being a component of your enamel. He thought it was probably made from bovine bone, hydroxyapatite being a component of bones as well, but that was just a guess.

Seems like Mi Paste has the best science behind it, from what he is aware of. Which again, may not be the most recent.

He also recommended Pronamel toothpaste because it's got a lower grit, he said it was 46 where some toothpastes go up to 250. Just a more gentle daily process, if you keep up on your cleanings and everything.
Theres always a market for someone wanting to be the first in something no matter how pointless. It is fascinating and a bit ridiculous to see what records there are in guinness.

I hear you there. I actually used to be an out of control Ruby hater - until I read Eloquent Ruby (fantastic book, my all time fav programming book) and started to understand it from first principles and all the beauty of message passing. I was Ruby-only for a few solid years of my career.

I *swear* that a year or two into this whole thing there were a wave of articles about how individual state marketplaces were having insurers exit the state marketplace. The story which I am *sure* I read more than once said that an insurer found they were losing money on a small number of patients with very expensive treatment needs which drove up their costs so much that no one else wanted to buy their product at its new price.

I went looking for articles about this recently and couldn't find them any more. Did I imagine this happening?

The primary thing that establishes general notability on Wikipedia for biographies is significant coverage from reliable secondary sources independent from both each other and the subject.

If someone gets significant coverage from multiple reliable secondary sources for taking a shit, they can have a Wikipedia article. They don't have to win an award for it (though it'd help) or contribute to society (though it'd help).

The action itself might be broadly, by common sense, not notable. Only the notoriety of the person _in published sources_ is relevant.

They've had their rocky moments, to be sure - and I won't hesitate to ding them for making self-hosting obscure. But, you can do so, and they actually listened and walked back their egregious stuff, so I'll give them credit for that as well, and my APs and ERPoE-5 have been rock solid. I've also liked their latest controller software (I run a VM on a ZFS storage backend, so I can roll it back if an update goes sour).

If anyone from Ubiquiti is listening, the fact that I can self-host is a major reason for my keeping my existing gear and being willing to buy more. I'm not keen on trusting my network administration to third-party server access.
Yes, and it's "even better" that your average RCE because it's not running code on the potentially sandboxed server, but on the (statistically speaking not sandboxed) developer/admin machine with potentially privileged access to other machines and systems.
Attention: Anecdote, incoming!

Since racial profiling is arguably a factor in police interactions with the public, let me just start with the fact that I'm a plain old white male. I was raised to show deference and respect to authority figures. I've had more than one teacher tell my parents, when I was in middle school and high school, that I was very polite.

All that said, I noticed a huge difference, once I got past about age 30, in how police treated me. When I was in my late teens and early to mid-twenties, cops — young cops, particularly — often seemed to want to try to see if they could rile me up and escalate. (Of course, I never took the bait.) I suspect there is some deep-seated primate behavior going on.
Of course not, but the people getting paid the bills also understand how to say "it is a complicated and difficult regulatory environment" frequently.

If leadership isn't careful (and it seldom pays to be careful), it becomes an excuse for every real wrong.
>A police force that is not respected will lead to escalation of violence.

Escalation by whom, the police or the citizens?

Yeah there are so many ways to carry a camera these days, I'm not going to get fussed about one more -- even if I have no personal interest in this thing whatsoever. It's more about how people behave with their pictures and videos than it is about what tech they use to take them. Actually, these would be great on everyone else's head at concerts, I won't have to try to see past the phones they're holding up the entire time.
> But publicly claiming someone did something like best their wife when their is no proof is potentially defamation.

Studies have shown that 40% of cops beat their wives, and other research suggests that DV doesn't get reported at all roughly half of the time, so the number of police officers beating their wives is going to be much greater than 40%. For any random police officer you could claim they beat their wives and be right more often than not. It's not an entirely unfair assumption to start with. This officer's ex had a protective order against him granted by the district court which was then extended on at least three occasions. It might not be proof of abuse, but it's pretty strong evidence.

My guess is that this kid found information about the protective order and just got his terminology wrong, assuming that there was a conviction when there wasn't one. It's statistically likely that he wasn't wrong and abuse was taking place. Seems like the courts could give some slack to the teenager whose rights were violated by a corrupt cop who likely abused his ex even if there was never a conviction.

> It's not that the people who built the original healthcare.gov were stupid people. It's that they were operating under constraints and incentives that emphasize rules and compliance over making the whole system work well.

Great comment. I spent the first half of my career in classical "silicon valley", direct-to-consumer businesses. Lately, I've been working in software in highly regulated industries. The differences between the two cannot be overstated. Even if you look past tiny (/s) issues like "you can't lose people's money, ever", you've got reams of often-conflicting regulations at the local, state and federal levels. Making a small text change to a webpage can require multiple lawyers.

This kind of well-intentioned stuff sometimes makes it impossible for the greatest engineers to do even simple things quickly. Work at the government level, and it gets worse, because now you have politicians reacting to your every change.
according to the article, the added hop visible in traceroute to Linode machine is after two 10/8 hops, so it's likely an internal machine. more importantly, the affected VM has a strange gateway MAC address, which can only be controlled by the local network administrator, not an intermediate carrier.

you could, but unfortunately the LE certs have a very short lifetime, and renewals are a thing

so you need a master server to handle the renewals, periodic sync, and to handle the case when the master goes away
