and what is the "right" thing with regards to a coat hook camera?

I know someone who put a spy camera in their kitchen to catch a person drugging their beverages. Could've just as easily been a coat hook spy camera.

To go at it from another angle, how about those snake cameras that bomb detection units sometimes use. You can use that for illicit purposes and good purposes.

I'm not saying the wrong thing is to ban these things, all I'm saying is that it's not quite so black and white as some people are making this out to be.
The article links to an amazon search results page for "bathroom spy camera"

Here is the first result: "1080P Bathroom spy Shower Nozzle Hidden Spy Security Cameras Mini Camera DVR 32GB,Mini Nanny Cam Smart Home, Indoor Outdoor Baby Camera"

https://www.amazon.com/Bathroom-Shower-Security-Cameras-Outd...

Kind of incredible that this still continues. They at least give some kind of cover for the use case of a "baby camera" but honestly even that feels so flimsy. This is disturbing.
QA? You mean the users?
I grew up in the same era, and I definitely knew people who could not watch TV because it induced headaches in them.
That one is missing from my Celsada collection. Will we ever get the juicy details?
The speech was changed on a teleprompter, not an "iThing"
Getting reviews from multiple people that disagree on style is definitely an org problem that sucks to be in the middle of.

However, I'd say that getting nit comments on code that surrounds your changes, but that you didn't change, is still fair game. It's part of the leave your campsite cleaner than you found it. It depends on the culture though - if it's suggested in the manner of "since you're here, here's an opportunity for how to improve this area of the code", that's better then acting like you made a mistake in failing to change it.
If it quacks like a duck and looks like a duck, it probably isn't a lemon. I don't think you have to be too creative here. I don't think it is reasonable for any spy cam to be legal, since the majority of the time you'll be recording people without consent (otherwise, what is the point in getting one).
If housing is to remain a good investment, it will eventually become unaffordable. Today housing is made into a good investment by artificially restricting its supply.

You can never ever square this circle. PE has nothing to do with it; they are just looking for returns.
Of course to the courts that means an effective review team, and so gets Amazon in more trouble for them not being effective. (note Amazon is not setup like ebay, and thus Ebay can get by without a review team in ways amazon cannot despite being similar)
And I'm not convinced we need a wild west either, at least if it's also more or less impossible to trace responsibility back to the producer. It's pretty new for something like Amazon to exist with the ability to market (through product recommendations), handle payments, and handle shipping logistics for a product that they need never even see. It means it's easy for manufacturers like this to basically get away scot free because they have to invest literally nothing in the US that can get taken away in the event that they turn out to be doing something like this. Some of the lines on the product page are chilling.

> 【Motion Detection Mode】 When you turn on its motion detection mode, the camera will automatically start to record a video when motion is detected. You do not need to worry about missing any important moments, ensure the security of your home, garage or anywhere you want.

Every line they're sure to end like this is being used for home security, but idk that someone could read this and think that was true
The sidelining is to show damages to her reputation etc. Page 50 or so starts the description alleging how the administration and the dean gutted her department by blocking, reallocating funds, stopping hiring, and refusing to extend contracts when funds are available.
Two thoughts on blogging: thought archives, and bullets dodged
It seems to be one of several fixed, round numbers depending on the market (city). But there may be other factors. It's an interesting policy choice and I'm curious why they do it. Needless to say, drivers very much want to know the whole tip amount and are annoyed that the displayed value is capped.
Where Amazon gets nabbed is the listing specifically says towel hook.
TidBITS has been only about Apple since it's inception 33 years ago.
>"Can a demoscene program with a very limited program size visualize (or codegolf program output) something specific?" - asking for nontrivial properties like this usually requires actually running each program, and there are unfathomably many short programs (https://www.dwitter.net/ is a good example of this)

This is equivalent to computing the Kolmogorov complexity of the desired output, which is uncomputable - you can pretty easily show that solving this implies solving the Halting Problem.
I always liked imagining big players like Apple, Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo, etc.. taking absurd measures to protect their private signing keys, something like that Coca-Cola recipe vault.
What are you talking about? It’s a Google Scholar link.
It's up to the legal system to decide whether this was advertised as a hidden bathroom camera.

I imagine that the advertising pictures of the camera holding a towel made this a rather easy decision.
The question to start asking, pretty soon, is if the booming economy means that the Fed is going to have to raise rates and step on the brake pedal even harder?

Pretty soon sentiment is likely to shift towards "good news is bad news" if inflation starts to tick up again. Everyone is talking about how hiring is good and people are spending all kinds of money, that means more money chasing goods, which is going to be inflationary. Again.

And we know what the Fed's views are on inflation.

Meanwhile CMBS continues to slowly melt down as loans hit maturity dates and fail to pay off and debt service triples on them. Distressed office loans have increased from 3% a year ago to over 10.5% now. And across the economy, all the bad bets of the ZIRP era are finally getting stress tested.
Unfortunately, that's not standard everywhere. I've found that some CLI applications go the route of space and B being the pager buttons, but I haven't found keybinds for paging in a bare TTY.
Surely there's more industry knowledge and better tooling/PPE behind stainless steel given the widespread adoption in all kinds of industry? I'd assume the risk for the workers installing it in homes is far lower as the top + sink is usually delivered in a single piece and only needs to be mounted on its support while with engineered stone often the slab is cut to size and reshaped on site
No, but I would if they sold bathroom cameras.

The issue isn't of quality, it's an issue of legality
Is credential stuffing even hacking?

It's super lame that the company doesn't enforce 2FA.

In some cases yes that will be true. But good luck having the inertia to replace ROOT in general (by anything). While many people hate ROOT (I do and feel the pain daily) it is highly tailored optimized piece that will take decades to try to implement something like it. And I doubt you would be able to handle low-level tasks like optimizing memory footprint needed for HEP applications when running stuff in online world (while collecting data).

JS+ASM greatest advantage is cross-platform which is one of the least features requested in the field. i.e No one expect you to be able to run your analysis code on windows.
There is no hazing because there is nothing personal here. You are not being judged. The code you wrote is, but feedback in a code review doesn't say anything about your competence (though how you respond to that feedback says a lot).

If your team is insulting you or saying that you're a bad engineer based on code review comments, that's a bad team. That doesn't mean that ensuring new team members learn the team's style and patterns is hazing.
The cynical voice inside me says it works as intended. The purpose of k8s is not to help you run your business/project/whatever, but a way to ascend to DevOps Nirvana. That means never-ending cycle of upgrades for the purpose of upgrading.

I guess too many people are using k8s where they should have used something simpler. It's fashionable to follow the "best practices" of FAANGs, but I'm not sure that's healthy for vast majority of other companies, which are simply not on the same scale and don't have armies of engineers (guardians of the holy "Platform")
So, I did doordash for three years during the pandemic, working through college. In that time. I received 5 tips post-delivery, out of nearly 2000 deliveries. It was so uncommon that I remember all of them. At the same time, regardless of distance or time, DoorDash would only offer $2-$3.50 per delivery. So yes, if you didn't tip up-front, I was unlikely to take your delivery after I ealized that. My rule of thumb was no less than $5, and $2/mile, decreasing to $1/mile with a long enough distance. Otherwise, between maintenance and gas, I was losing money. I only broke that rule if my numbers were too low. They implemented this style of pay shortly before I left the service, but in my experience, it paid nowhere near well enough to be worthwhile.
No, this is a pretty poor argument.

Simply put anyone coming after your product can submit a completely unrealistic set of abuses they could do with your product whereas your products normal uses may only cover a few particular tasks.

If you (the state) doesn't want a product on Amazon, you should be required to show meaningful evidence the product can both be harmful and is against the law to sell in your jurisdiction.

It’s mostly a recent problem, oddly enough. Only one of the last nine big-two party candidates didn’t go to prep school (Hilary, as you mention). Typically more than half the primary candidates “prepped”, over the same period. Most VPs have, too, though it’s been less totally-captured than the big chair (and you’ve got edge cases like Harris who didn’t technically “prep” but had a pretty similar situation) Seems like damn well-stacked odds, considering fancy prep school kids are a small minority of all kids. But maybe this is just a multi-decade weird run of strange fortune, and not a persistent trend.
Not really a generalization. Non-booze British tourists are the exception and not the norm. The country's tourists built a reputation and holiday destinations are reacting accordingly.

No, but if I bought a toaster from WalMart I would hold WalMart accountable for it. Amazon has given the impression of being like WalMart, while Faceboot has given the impression of being like a classified. In one case I think I'm dealing with WalMart's curated list of products, in the other it is a bunch of sellers.

>Today housing is made into a good investment by artificially restricting its supply.

How? Perhaps in San Francisco, but most places are building like crazy.

Zillow tried this same investment strategy a year or two ago and it bit them in the ass. I wonder how much high interest rates is fueling this, assuming the PE firms have cash to buy where most individuals/families would be hesitant to buy at such a high rate.
It’s possible to make a more charitable reading of their comment as being on topic.
I wouldn't burden the service provider, I would burden the payment processor and card network. If there’s a license involved, even better. Some merchant codes can’t have tips, merchant onboarding can’t have tip upselling by the sales team

Regulate behavior by regulating the intermediary

Think about anything this way and you can push the same changes through any form of government
I find the headline to be seriously clickbaity, as the word "smart" (in the context of TVs) generally refers to a network connection that facilitates streaming, telemetry, ads, etc. but TFA is not discussing that category of features whatsoever. It's discussing features totally unrelated to the growing popularity of disabling "smart TV" features for the sake of privacy and fewer ads.

Unfortunately, I don't know that there's a generic non-jargon word for this collection of settings, but let's not solve for that by overloading the word "smart"!
They have Spotify apps on everything: Garmin watches, Roku TVs, the "Car Thing", Amazon Echo, Facebook Portal, Discord, Bixby...

That's a lot of apps to maintain and keep up to date with the latest features.
Thank you! That means so much :)
> Not paying will be even cheaper. They don't need this to obtain the de facto monopoly given the massive costs in training. Even if other companies offer their own AI, it will be for niche scenarios (like character creation for games), and training will use Big Tech's cloud resources.

The massive costs of training is why they will pay, in order to lock out others. If you spend _billions_ in training, who cares about a 10 million dollar dataset?

The rest of you argument reads more like a push for exactly what the article calls for. Many companies will not be able to amass large datasets to attempt to compete with large companies if they have to pay for it. What happens if Cool AI Startup spends 50% of their funding on a dataset, but it's useless after months of experiments? Large companies can easily absorb those costs, small companies can't.
"experts say"
This seems false, Whatsapp became 'the business engine through which the vast majority of the world' sends texts on the backs of 20ish employees.

Even assuming delivering music, podcasts, royalty payments, negotiations with artists, etc..., takes 100x more headcount in total, that should still be only around 2000 employees.

9000 just means most are not being that productive.
Generally, for these tasks when we say "humans can solve them" then people are not solving the same problem; they're trying (and succeeding) to find a good solution (where various heuristics work), and often for most, realistic cases only, while the theoretical problem is to have a process that will certainly find a solution that's guaranteed to be the absolute best possible even in weird degenerate cases, and that simply is a very different, much harder problem. E.g. halting problem, traveling salesman, etc, etc have people commenting that "but humans can solve them" in this manner.
interesting. you can't afford to compensate all of the creators whose content you consume, so none of them shall receive compensation?

there is no obligation, it's just a good and kind thing to do.

Team conventions are not cargo culting.

Change is bad unless it's great. Being able to look around a codebase and know how things work because similar coding styles and patterns are consistently followed is a huge productivity boost (this is also what commenters complaining about the idea of readability elsewhere in this thread are missing). Something must be 10x better to compensate for diverging from those patterns.

What you write is not YOUR code. It is your TEAM'S code, and the good of the team is far more important than what you personally like.
Literally no business works likes this. Every team and hire is a risk, and the market understands this. You don't have the information to say if there was "waste" and even if there was, so what?
Well, standing right in front of them, they have you over a barrel. What, are you going to call an Uber and go to another hotel in the hope that they have rooms?
I have memories of this site providing me with an excellent experience. Now it's just a cash-grab, asking for $169.50/year just to see 100 breached accounts!

I use unique email addresses (breach canaries) on every website to detect when sites leak my data. When I tried to search for my domain results with a previous domain ownership verification, I got hit with this error: "In order to search a domain with any more than 10 breached accounts on it, you need a sufficiently sized subscription"

To make matters worse, Troy includes public data compilations as 'breaches' which artificially inflates counts for the breached accounts quota. For example, when a compilation of public contact details scraped from GitHub leaked, Troy counted that as a breach. I explicitly listed my email address as public.

I'd be willing to pay $5-12/year. These rates are outrageous for such a low-overhead service.
Then unionize.

If you're demanding as a bunch of individuals that big corporations pay you, what you're going to get is big corporations fighting you against each other for slave wages, and the big corporations owning almost all human creative output in the future.
If you believe that content you submit to websites is not examined by interested parties associated with that website, then - I have a bridge to sell you... or perhaps I should say a Google account to give you, free of charge.
> It makes me hesitant to leave Typescript and even Rust (for web tooling).

To be clear this is not what a "typical" python application/script looks like at all. While there's definitely an argument to be made about python's immature type support (especially compared to typescript/rust), don't use this as an example of python's readability.

This was written to closely follow the math equations, not to be a maintainable piece of software. It makes a lot more sense from a mathematics/academic perspective, but not from a software development perspective.

Strong typing support would do nothing for readability but make this harder to read. Typing support doesn't help your naming, commenting, formatting, etc. that makes this so hard to read.
I see, well the computer did a fine job then. Now I just think that if your gonna add honey and tomato to it anyway, skip the "glaze" product and just buy good balsamic!
>"Spotify was a stand-out, almost no large tech company bought into cloud like they did, and everyone said the same thing: "It's not our core competence, it would require more people".

I'm not sure what you mean by this as Spotify was actually quite late buying into cloud. They ran on bare metal through at least 2015. From their engineering blog:

">Thus, in early 2015 we started exploring what a cloud strategy would look like for Spotify."[1]

So they would have been running on bare metal through some of the biggest spikes in growth i.e launching in the US market. I don't think they bought in any more or any less than anyone else who transitioned from bare metal to cloud and for probably the same reasons.

Frame interpolation is so incredibly awful looking in my opinion. Especially when it comes to animation. I can not comprehend all of the people on Youtube that take a beautiful drawn animation that is intentionally 24 frames per second and increase it to 60 thus ruining the hand crafted perfection of the drawn key frames.
That link is an article I really, really wish I'd read while learning how to drive, and is something I'll teach my kid before he starts riding a bike with traffic. I hadn't seen it before, so thanks.
> I begin to despise our modern culture of continual updates.

I started fully despising it a number of years ago. I think it's one of the worst fads that has swept through the industry. I hope that eventually it will die a horrible death.
So, it has changed over the years, but it used to be {roof(basePay + $5, floor(mileage) * 2)} so with the $3.50 base pay of the day, anything under 5 miles had a max showing of $8.50, and then anything over would be like, $10+. It still roughly works that way, but the constants change
exactly right. This would be like people getting mad at collectors of the 'Black Lotus' Magic the Gathering cards for being responsible for its exorbitant price, instead of getting mad at Wizards of the Coast for never printing more of them.

All the problems with housing would be fixed by just building more.
I've had that on my list to try out for a while now. FastAPI is a joy, having generated OpenAPI is a must, so Ninja sounds good.

I've had quite enough of DRF's tower of mixins and rails like magic. It always sucks up development time and fails too easily.
> They used tips (and may still use tips) to refund themselves for the minimum pay offered to dashers.

Not trying to make a stance one way or another, just wanted to make sure I understand what you meant by this correctly.

Is what you are describing essentially the same way it works in the restaurant industry for waiters/servers?

TLDR: waiters/servers in the US typically have a base pay that’s below the minimum wage, but they get to keep all the tips. However, if a waiter/server at the end of their pay period makes less with their base pay+tips than what the minimum wage for the area would be, the employer is legally on the hook for making up the difference to the employee.
This makes too much sense. Especially using water spray to collect most of the dust at the moment its created and before it diffuses into the air, and perhaps ambient mist to collect some of any remainder.
It's advertised as a towel hook. By their own admission, the product is designed, meant and marketed to be used in a bathroom.

That's what's great about the case. They can't claim that they're not liable because it is meant for legitimate use because they advertise specifically for an illegal use.

By their own admission, they have to find a legitimate use of a bathroom spy cam.
Almost every suggestion to help employees doesn't consider the second order effects.
Consider “Oswald: the man who took on the United States Secret Service, and won”. I'm not particularly interested in US history, but I think I'd find this much more interesting than yet another conspiracy podcast.
The article cites a study by Business Insider, but the link actually links to a completely different article (from the Atlantic) that, ironically enough actually makes the exact opposite point of what this article is trying to make.
