Verifying an email address can be something that comes up in countless situations. It could be verifying an email address from your sales list, or it could also be that you received a web form submission and want to confirm whether it is correct.

For whatever situation you find yourself in, today in this blog, we will show you 3 practical ways to check the validity of your email address list so that you can start your email campaigns confidently.
Interesting… I wonder if this is the reason I need to restart Windows if I save files in my project directories during a Podman-based (via WSL) compile, which causes a hang that I've—until now—blamed on Podman.
Mold is hardly completely harmless. Please do not spread harmful misinformation.
That far is known already: entropy and time have to be kind of bolted on to quantum theories. And there is a veritable zoo is "interpretations" of quantum theory. Meanwhile, general relativity struggles with singularities, dark energy, and dark matter.

I finally took off my pink-tinted glasses when I noticed they restored old deleted messages once they released the new Messenger, the one we have today which replaced old facebook chat feature.

Probably it was for my "convenience" but what I know /s.
This doesn't matter, as part of a strike is to block others from doing what you are striking against. They have "guards" in place.
The money/effort wasted by the Canadian government is at an all time high level. Canada just spent their total debt 200 billion in one year doubling it. They still keep spending into debt. Remember We and the billion lost?

Don't go around bragging. It's a national shame.
If performance matters most, write your own specialized string processing code which works on "raw" data in memory buffers. If convenience matters look at https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt (or std::format which AFAIK is less feature rich) and https://github.com/imageworks/pystring.
If CBP wants to know what's inside your laptop, and you're not an American citizen, your options are to show them or go back to where you came from, and possibly never be allowed back again. Missing a passphrase may mean you're not even presented with this option, though in principle you still should be asked even if the device were completely unlocked and unencrypted, but few would take the second option anyway, so for the majority of travellers, the passphrase is not really extra protection.
A lane assist that navigates complex junctions in cities, gets you from A to B, etc. It's a bit more than lane assist at this point. The main criticism on FSD is not that it isn't capable of doing these things. Because it obviously is at this point as demoed in countless videos where people try it out. Instead it's that it's not doing these things safely enough that it would be able to do so unattended. That's a valid criticism. It's mostly fine but when it isn't, it's a problem. Either way, removing the requirement to have your hands on the wheel seems to be not doable as long as that's true. And that's of course the promise that has yet to be delivered.

Worth noting that this is yet another anti-tesla article from Jalopnik. They've spread clickbait and misinformation on this topic before. I wouldn't take anything they say as established fact without independent confirmation. Authors there play very loose with the facts.
Not the OP but ChatGPT has not replaced Google for me just yet, but I use it increasingly to find stuff online now and it's really intuitive and helpful with much less 'noises' as you normally get from Google search. But as for now the online service is far from smooth (intermittent), not as fast and seamless as Google search.

Granted I use ChatGPT-4 with subscription but if later the online RAG browsing feature is opened for free to the public I can see more people abandoning Google for casual searching (i.e most of the Internet users). They keyword here is 'casual' and what LLM provided us is the intuitive nature of searching using it even with miss spellings or missing words.

I think Google is realizing this and before this exodus really happened it needs to do something otherwise the adage of "nothing last forever" will come true sooner or later for Google. The main thing for Google now is how to monetize this technology assuming that they have similar product because all this while they are struggling with Deepmind to generate income and, voila ChatGPT just shows them how to do it. Now it seems they are taking a page from Apple (highest ranked company by market value) by providing tiers of service Ultra, Pro and Nano, and me think the Ultra will be most probably subscription based.

That was an insane idea that was only put forward as a hedge against someone breaking them up.

Understanding Innovation in Interoperable Systems [pdf]
"Our analysis reveals a bifurcated ecosystem: one of smaller apps and services that leverage or improve on interoperable systems and another of larger platforms that attempt to offer paradigm-shifting innovations, but that to some extent also undermine interoperability and externalize certain costs to users. We conclude that in designing competition policy, policymakers should not focus on whether interoperability encourages or discourages innovation, but on what kind of innovation it introduces, and how interoperability might impact all relevant stakeholders."

An interesting argument (and a paper). I also pointed out recently the issue of "centralization and concentration through AI APIs".

There is also a related argument that the demands for interoperability may endanger security (E2E in particular), but I think it is speculative and partially politically motivated.
With the cancellation of HS2 they will do even less than promised!
MongoDB Introducing Vector Search in GA
Housing has been destroyed by unrestrained capitalism.

Capitalism without limits, without social seatbelts is a bad thing. I don’t care if this makes the pure capitalists shriek “COMMUNISM!”. In fact it’s not communism to have a society that has rules around housing, it’s healthy social democracy.

Housing is a fundamental human need and houses should be owned by people and every single citizen who wants to own a house should be able to buy one within their local community. Teachers, clerks, garbage collectors, everyone. It used to be this way before housing turned into a real world monopoly game.

Rich people - ie those who own one or more houses tend to be completely lacking in empathy for those who don’t own a house.

And people who own houses tend to have lots of advice like “move somewhere cheaper further out”, but such advice is easy to give because they never have to take such worthless and insensitive advice.

Singapore has 89% owner occupied housing. This should be the mission for any country that cares about its people. But modern governments don’t care about their people, they care about growth, and about making politicians and vested interests richer.
Elon Musk's X AI startup seeks to raise $1B in equity
My experience has been aggravated by being simultaneously affected by https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/issues/11893, which results in all zfs operations hanging (kill -9 is ineffective) until a power cycle. This round of upgrades was not fun.

Debian bookworm users: You need to enable backports for zfs. Both bugs are fixed in backports but still present in stable.

Let's do away with the tribalism in both ways? Calling it perfect is quite a stretch. I'm not saying "don't use zfs", just "you want to be prepared for the worst-case if your data matters". 3-2-1 and "validate your backups" still apply.
The article is very thin on actual technical details. It doesn’t describe how the spectrograms are processed or details of the neural network they’re using (other than using convolutions, which is pretty standard in CV/audio/speech processing).

What is interesting to me, though, is that they mention the importance of more precise time labeling of sounds. Previous BirdCLEF Kaggle competitions just provided many-minute long recordings where all that is known (labelled) is that a certain list of species are to be heard, but not when in the recording. That’s not too useful as training data, as they point out in the article:

This can lead to problems: if other species are singing in the same recording, the model will erroneously call all species in the recording a White-breasted Nuthatch, leading to false predictions.
The structure bombed into dust 99% of the times it was tried.
My biggest problem with how this feature is implemented is that the encryption passphrase is stored in plain text in the syncthing config file.

I wish there was a way to lock the passphrase in the session keyring, with syncthing only sending files to untrusted devices if the keyring is unlocked.
Does this imply the existence of field lines which are not loops?

You could also have a Raspberry to backup in another place, such as a friend's house.
I have this fantasy that Tether is legit, and trying to look shady, so that they can buy dollars at a discount. Any time market confidence falters, they prop up this price by buying back tether (which is backed 1:1) at a price under 1. They purposefully don’t provide any evidence, because it leads to cheaper dollars for them to purchase.

Definitely not true, but what a beautiful “scam” that would be.
This is what Western people don't understand about ALL dictatorships. They think that some jerk somehow got a few henchmen with guns and took over the whole country, and now millions of people are all too scared to do anything about it. That's simply not the case; dictators exist because they have popular support, and plenty of it. Dictators are human too, and can easily be murdered in their bathtubs. When they live a long time as dictator, it's because most of their people support them.
Yes but there are significant restrictions as to what can be expressed there - it's limited to assertions of the form 'well-known entity X has pre-defined property P with value Y (or "some value" or "no value"), with one further layer of "qualifiers"'. RDF itself is fully compositional, and RDF* extends that compositionality even further, providing a standard means to reify arbitrary RDF statements and make complex assertions about them.

You don't need language to do maths — the Greeks went pretty far with geometry alone. While language makes it easier to understand things, it's not strictly necessary: you can learn a lot from mimicry, for instance.
You must understand, for your average wealthy SE UK voter, the UK is still a dominant world force, a peer to China and the United States. Brexit was quite popular down there, despite not being the majority. Of course, their worldview is about 30 years out of date, so they need comparisons to East Germany or Poland to shake them out of it.
I get irrationally mad at frame interpolation! :-D
Why? It is a good advice which can help to get a better position, higher salary, etc.
Totally true, but sometimes people just want to unsubscribe to a mailing list they got in because they forgot to uncheck the box "send me promotions" when buying something online, or maybe they even signed up on purpose in the past. Still, some of these just mark the mails as spam not to get them any more.
>in particular, there's not _that_ much stopping a member state turning around and going "haha, only joking" once it's in; see Hungary

The EU really needs a strong mechanism to kick member states out when this happens.
if that freaks you out, what about cytostatics, drugs that hinder the proliferation of all cells. Just take them and pray to god it affects the fast growing tumor cells more than your own. By the way, the dose needed to actually do something to the tumor is high enough to murk you, so better take 3 different ones in lower doses
The base layer will settle large sums that people are willing to pay $50+ for. $50 is not much to pay for transfer and final settlement of $1M - it's a 0.0005% fee.
How much more tax are you willing to pay to have these extra utilities be run by govts?
I am not saying I am having heaps of issues.

But for some reason the new open nvidia driver didn’t like my set up yesterday. mkinitcpio log shows it used the hook properly and then I did it manually. Proprietary one works fine and I am chill with that.

But to reiterate, it’s just the the summary doesn’t go into enough detail. It’s just pumping up the tyres.

My comment is not a criticism or evaluation of gaming on Arch or Linux or nvidia. It’s about the article.
Apple Confirmed Government Is Spying on People's Phones with Push Notifications
So practically it means just logging in to a different device is not enough to get history, you have another logging in mechanism for that? (recovery code)
But amortized analysis has nothing to do with what CPUs can do. CS students learn it in an algorithm course, not in a computer architecture course.
Im always hoping that it's the bad subset of the lang users that are loud, but for this one youre most probably right. I've been using C++ for a while and its definitely the language I know best, but I have to ackmowledge that its impossible to write really truly safe code in it. Rust makes it easier, but a panic() is just a segfault with a crash log to the user -- they dont care that its safe, it just died.
Not that I'm aware, but happy to stand corrected. They pretend they are enforceable, we pretend to abide by them.
Most are not in the position to behave like divas.

You got like 1s to guess what the interviewer wants you to be. Like, if he has dreadlocks you probably don't want to be uptight and stiff etc. So it always depends on the situation of course, but on average "behave and hide your flaws" is probably best.
>Robin Hood, in the face of the partners they rely on refusing to allow further acquisitions, did the best they could by still allowing selling.

You mean Robin Hood manipulated the markets? By only allowing sell orders you manipulated the price and market. In some cases they even automatically sold positions without knowledge of the retail traders.

They should have gone bankrupt, instead they robbed many retail traders.
I can launch wayland gnome sessions but they be janky as hell. It’s almost got me about to switch to KDE when I get a little time.
That makes me sad. Crypto is just other people’s money. Just more people in tears over lost money.
General relativity has no problem with dark energy or dark matter. Singularities, yes. And nonrenormalizability is an issue (with trying to make it quantum).
Etymology seldomly works as an argument. Tesla didn't use 'autopilot' because it works like the autopilot of a plane, but because normal people associate the word with concepts they learned from tv shows for decades, think knight rider.
"Funny that you ask me about this problem! One time, my brother, who is now out of state, had a similar problem and came to me. He said: "I have these numbers, and every time theyre a multiple of 3 or 5..."
If you ended up on the list without signing up, well I wouldn't blame you to click the "Report spam" button, because that's what it is.

But I'm pretty sure that some people who actually signed up on purpose to be on some mailing list just click the spam button not to see them any more, because they are not any more interested, or for whatever other reason.
It's also a poor solution for an "always on" solution since it's dependent on your home Internet/VPN/power working, which is probably true for your other clients too.

If I'm running Syncthing on a desktop computer at home and a laptop with me on the go, adding a Raspberry Pi to the same home network doesn't really improve resiliency of the sync service. But if I have a server in a completely different location, it actually will.
Wouldn’t a metric called frametimings be lower is better?
FWIW, I love HAProxy but hate SQL (for the exact reasons the OC suggests). It turns the simple into soup and makes bugs more likely. Every single non-trivial usage of it I've seen in the wild has been a ball of spaghetti. I bought the learning curve argument for a long time until I finally realized: no, SQL is a victim of its own success. It's popular because it's popular, not because it's a superior language. That popularity has encouraged a gambling addict level of doubling down that continues to gaslight less-experienced developers into believing it's "the way."

You're right that it isn't going away, but when it does, I'll be the first to dance on its grave.
Even though Spotify does have some metal in their catalogue, I don't see how a metalworkers union could strike against Spotify. Instead of some anti-US sentiment that you not-so-hidden point at, the real answer is different unions with different cultures and bargaining power.
> It periodically opens a giant chat window that obscures content.

Hard to ignore the irony of this complaint appearing on a site that itself obscured half the content with an enormous advert featuring a duck.
Search works fine on WhatsApp, not sure whether it's client / server though.
> I'll reflect this back to you and your statement. Making such statements says quite a bit about how you see and treat people

What I suspect is you haven't looked at a picture of the actual book cover and therefore haven't realised that it looks rather different in action.

Most of those 'other brokers' that halted trading, were similar to Robinhood, as in not really a proper brokerage.
No serious bank ever halted trading, why would they?
Not one that makes me want to buy one of their cars.
Its great advice if you have no idea what youre doing and have been cheating/faking your way in mostly. When you really dont have any idea, keeping silent and applying what little you know could get you that job.

I've seen people who are pretending to know what theyre talking about say the most crazy shit when asked casually about something they did - like "my UI might be laggy because the server is slow" (the ui was completely clientside and offline). It would have been better if he had shut up because his UI was fine.
This doesn't seem to be it, but I always wondered if it would make sense to have an extension to the IDE that uses the aggregated data from Sentry to highlight lines of code that have caused errors or slowdowns.
I know its hard to believe, but the entire customer base (23.3M) of Robinhood is a testament to how good their product is in spite of the misgivings of the brokerage during the "GME". If it makes it feel better, their MAU is down 16% year-over-year to 10.3 million.

I am also a user and I love it - and while I don't trade crypto, but they offer the lowest commission in crypto. And my uninvested cash gets a decent interest (5%), and my trades execute reasonably well. It maybe not for a professional trader, but my own experience has been fantastic for what it offers.

Also incredibly thankful that there is no trading fees across many of the brokers now, which I believe was forced by Robinhood. I know of the PFOF controversy, and regardless I hold this view.

I also know I can't change your view, but hope you have a great weekend ahead!
One recurring problem I have with Claude 2 is that it sometimes "bugs out" and starts to repeat the same token ad infinitum (which I still have to pay for). This happens with longer prompts, say, 30k. Have you encountered this issue?
Bjarne Stroustrup in latest presentations literally states C++ could be used to write safe code and developers simply use it wrong.
Personally I feel more like this is pythons multiprocessing, with some spices added to start a server on demand.

It's been a while since I last read the multiprocessing docs but last time I did it did a pretty poor job of showing all the fancy tricks multiprocessing supports, like running a function in a different interpreter or on a different server altogether.

Wow! Impressive is an understatement, she has achieved so much at that her age.
I think your article makes plenty of valid points and was an interesting read. Given the number of times you pre-empt criticism, I suspect you’re aware you are being a little unfair on something that’s openly declared to be beta/preview. But equally you rightly observe that Amazon are pushing this as if it’s production ready!
Yep, the same scam Robinhood.
I guess the have to pivot to crypto, because their other business is not running well?
Lists and maps exist, but that doesn't mean they cover every country and train.

Also, GTFS is schedule data, not realtime data. When you click a train on such a service's map, it may or may not make it clear whether the shown location is based on the interpolation of some schedule data, whether the interpolation has been adjusted by some updated data (cancellations, delays), or whether it's actually based on realtime location data.

Google's new model is good but the demo's not reproducible in Bard
"Whataboutism" is trying to deflect to an utterly unrelated topic, like suddenly turning around, pointing at a tree an screaming "but what about the pine needle water content cartel?!".

It certainly isn't pointing out hypocrisy, establishing a common standard or a cureall in online discussions.

I've seen a proper "whataboutism" been used but only once (by a malfunctioning redditor from Eglin Airforce Base).
Isn't it mostly about companies with platforms or app stores? Vodafone isn't a gatekeeper because it doesn't have its own app store.
It's proven sufficient to show them what they expect to see.

Variations on plausibly deniable rubberhose | TrueCrypt bare metal vmhosts allow for parallel OS's - one that can be booted by default and be "family friendly" with all the apps and photos | IMs etc expected and another (or many) OS's that have non obvious triggers to allow for passphrase entry into journalists document vaults.

The evidence for parallel OS's is two fold:-

* non obvious drivers almost always overlooked and essentially never noticed in border patrol scans, and

* "unused" areas of drive storage with contents indistinguishable from white noise (or multi pass disk shredding).
I’m surprised that the multimodal model is t significantly better than GPT4. I thought that all the Google photos training data would have given it an edge.

> My framework is both portable and the absolute easiest to work with.

It’s hard to overstate this. I bought the 13” DIY edition a few weeks back, and it was almost disappointingly easy to set up. I was expecting a bit of a project, but it took me about 40 minutes from opening the box to having Fedora installed and YouTube playing. And the chassis is as thin as my 14” MacBook Pro (15.95mm vs 15.5mm)
Sure, but the tried and true way to encrypt your NAS would probably be using full-disk-encryption, not something specific only to syncthing.
