In this context the UN is simply the governing body of international law. It holds no mechanism of enforcement and is wowed to non-interference and impartiality. When the UN finds a blockade illegal it simply means that it violates the international laws it self has set. You can think of this like a supreme court ruling inside your own jurisdiction, just between states as opposed to people.

There is no bias here, just law and interpretations on these laws.

If this were the security council that would be another issue however.
Also getting Raptor engines to work. The second Starship test was a massive achievement because the SuperHeavy Raptors all worked. That's an engine design with numerous advantages which wasn't practical when the Russians tried it, but might now be practical (certainly looks to be from the test) because control systems technology is small and powerful enough (i.e. similar to how modern fighter jets fly in aerodynamically unstable regimes requiring active computer control - we have them now because we have the computers which can do it).
Starlink loses out on $886M in rural broadband subsidies
I can't find any trace of this with a quick Google search, but I'm super sure I read about the very first iPhones having the baseband module talk to the soc via USB as an isolation measure, since USB didn't have DMA or anything "dangerous". Anybody else heard that, or am I hallucinating?
What's stopping two trillion dollar corporations who assemble/build their own phones and phone OSes from designing/manufacturing their own secure baseband chip and getting it certified?
The only thing that cutting US supplies to Israel is going to accomplish is increase in deaths of innocent Palestinians as Israel will be forced to use less precise munition ‾\_(ツ)_/‾
The thing is, bulldozing is also happening in the West Bank, which has nothing to do with Hamas. Of note in this conflict, many genocidal comments from Israeli ministers, along with footage taken by IDF soldiers glorifying the destruction, several faked testimonies (admitted by the IDF) including the infamous calendar video, and a lack of evidence over claims that hospitals are being used as Hamas HQs, add up to a notable inconsistency between Israel’s stated aims and what is actually happening there.

As referred to in other comments, terrorism in Northern Ireland and Spain were solved by coming to the negotiating table. Additionally, rather than bombing civilians which is more likely to Foster a new generation of terrorists out for revenge, Israel could simply spend that war chest donated by the US ($3bn / year and a $14bn aid package) invest in Gaza, give the citizens at least the daily minimum of water recommended by the UN (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_supply_and_sanitation_...) and a reliable electricity supply. As the country responsible for these resources it is inhumane to do otherwise.
There is a correlation between treating people well, and a lack of violence from them.

Of that aid from the US to a distinctly non-third world country, this is probably the most interesting question. Countries very rarely give money for free, so something is being bought here. Nowhere is the question being asked what that is, but it points to unsaid motives.
If Google used the entire Internet to train a model, this would immediately be lambasted as a horrible overreach and they would be sued and regulators would use this as another data point to try and break them up. How long have their crawlers been tickling every part of the accessible Internet? How many chrome browsers could they use? If they acted unethically here, they could have many multiples of the data open ai can reach.

Open ai can take on more risk. They didn’t already have a reputation as being anti privacy.

I think the legal and reputational threat to Google would be far greater for the same actions.
It's a bad idea in general, because a healthy sustainable soil is more than just available nutrients. Good soils also have micro-organisms that break down organic matter which also releases more nutrients, introduces air into soil, some even have symbiotic relationship with plant roots.

Also, you don't put raw manure directly into soils. You need to compost them first for at least 6 months. That alone breaks down and kills harmful organisms.

I think the last good news outlet was BBC before NATO invasion in Iraq. Shortly after, it became a good propaganda machine and many other news outlets adapted their strategies.
> How does LXD compare to Docker?

They have different use cases.

Docker runs single applications/daemons.

LXD runs a whole Linux system by spawning an init process which takes care of spawning and managing other processes that compose a system.

A great security feature of LXD is that these child systems are run in user namespaces and don't have root privileges in the host. Docker runs with full root privileges, and malicious code can easily escape the container and take over the host.
I love this. Sometimes Swedish words are hard to translate because they are compound words or because they are some weird metaphor. For example, the Swedish "Smultronställe" is quite literally, "Raspberry place", and refers to a favourite place a person likes to go to. There's also "realisationsvinstbeskattning" which means "capital gains tax" but just squashed together (we do that with words that go together). If we take this to the extreme we can create words like "spårvagnsaktiebolagsskensmutsskjutarefackföreningspersonalbeklädnadsmagasinsförrådsförvaltarens" which means “belonging to the manager of the depot for the supply of uniforms to the personnel of the track cleaners’ union of the tramway company”, but isn't a real word.

Some other cultural notes you might want to update:

I would change Sisu. It is not Swedish, it's Finnish, and it's so Finnish that a person who doesn't exhibit this trait is often not considered a true Finn.

"Lagom är bäst" is not a word, it's a phrase that is not even used much and is already covered by the word "lagom".

Självklart literally refers to something self-evident, it's very nature is "clear" as in clear ice for example and requires nothing outside of itself to be understood.

"Kompisar på nätet" is not a thing, but "Nätkompis" is.

"Mellanmjölk" is described as semi-skimmed (literally middle-milk), which comes from our phrases "light milk" (0.5% fat), "middle milk" (1.5% fat) and "standard milk" (3% fat). You could also add those if you want, they're called "lättmjölk", "mellanmjölk" and "standardmjölk" and is simply a three-tier system for easy colloquial reference. But what makes this mellanmjölk word interesting is that it can also be used to refer to something that is bland, boring or unremarkable. For example, in the Swedish Idol, a jury member said they thought an audition would be a "Mellanmjölksvariant" (a boring audition).

There is a sound used in Northern Sweden that is literally a short inhale of air, which is used to express agreement. Southern Swedes are not always able to make the sound convincingly. It's not quite the same meaning as "yes", as it just lubricates the conversation and shows you're listening. It can also have a stoic and unbothered character to it.

Actually it is easy to mitigate if you have political will.

Vision zero is a common approach which is working in EU.

Or laws could be appended with requirements to install extra technical measures to the cars to prevent driving under influence and speeding.

It is unclear for me why there is no hard speed limit installed into the cars, like 140km/h.

That's quite a bit of selective reading there. Where you see "'67 borders", I see "Hamas rejects any alternative to the full and complete liberation of Palestine, from the river to the sea".

River = the Jordan River

Sea = the Mediterranean sea

=> calling for the destruction of Israel. But sure, we'll take '67 as an intermediate step.
Finance is dominated by women workforce in Russia, so probably no frontline accountants.
Because if you don’t have real world constraints (like needing to be profitable, or paying the bill for thermodynamic reality), then ‘anything is possible’.

Also if you aren’t dealing with those, then problems that come from that never occur to the person involved. So the concerns are abstract and not based on real limits or real problems.

Hence ivory tower.
Google is too large and big to innovate and launch and will be eaten up by smaller nimbler startups. Tale as old as time. They have also hired and outsourced too much work to India where there is a drastic quality gap.
> I can't point to anything specifically incorrect about this reporting.

Then your comment is a genetic fallacy. You're highlighting a potential motive or potential for bias, but without anything substantive to say.
That depends on what you mean by AI, no?
We won't know for sure unless SpaceX goes public, but leaks suggest the marginal cost of a reusable F9 launch is below $20M and the sticker price is $67M, and that goes up fast if you want vertical integration etc.
Glad to hear that, certainly doesn’t transfer well on the first read, as I saw that sentiment far too widespread last few months.
I'm guessing it's for the reasons they state.

They've gotten a reputation for canceling shows. Creatives feel that it's unjustified, and I'm assuming they feel that it's justified based on the numbers the shows are pulling in and the cost.

And they feel that transparency about this is the best way to demonstrate their case. That the data backs up their decisions.

Most network show cancelations come with low rating that everyone can see. This is their equivalent of releasing ratings so people can see the reasons for their cancelations.
Imagine if Google had a studio for TV shows; they would cancel everything after 1 or 2 episodes.
Yeah I thought the same. Ultra generic advice and no evidence it has actually parsed anything unique or useful from the user’s actual composition.

> We discussed taking an outage window, but one thing that we kept coming back to was how we might trial run the upgrade with production data

1. You snapshot your RDS database (or use one of the existing ones I hope you have)

2. You restore that snapshot into a database running in parallel without live traffic.

3. You run the test upgrade there and check how long it takes.

4. You destroy the test database and announce a maintenance window for the same duration the test took + buffer.

I agree it's a good project to exercise some "migration" muscle, it just doesn't seem like the payoff is there when, like I mentioned above, AWS supports this out of the box from now on since you upgraded to a version compatible with their zero downtime native approach.

I think the only way this makes sense is if you do it for the blog post and use that to hire and for marketing, signaling your engineering practices and that you care about reliability.

By the way, I realize how I come across, and let me tell you I say this having myself done projects like this where looking back I think we did them more because they were cool than because they made sense. Live and learn.
Lots of women with power in Venezuela. Check yourself before you check others. Socialist regimes love to show women in power to prove how progressive they are.

In a just world, that's a way to gain market share. In our world, people concede their data for marginal improvements in the quality of a feature because they can't conceive of how giving up control of their data could come back to harm them. It doesn't feel like there is a downside.
As it’s not clear to me how this goal could possibly be accomplished I can’t refer to any specific international law. But the spirit of the law does not allow for the indefinite subjugation of a neighboring people, regardless of what some of them have done.
With the mention of AWS RDS and Aurora, I am curious if you had thought about creating a replication slot, adding a replica to the cluster and then promoting the replica to its own cluster. Then connecting the new cluster to the original with the replication slot based on the position of the snapshot. This would save the large original replication time and also keep the sequences consistent without manual intervention.
Blindsight?
Why would that be the logical conclusion ? Not everyone listens to pop music for example that doesn't mean we are out of touch, not seeing pop shows just means we have different tastes than the most common denominator.

There are a large variety of tastes and streaming companies cater to the segments which make enough financial returns, not just only pop culture, as long as enough people are there in the segments we like - it shouldn't matter what pop culture is doing.
> This doesn't mean HG work was play or that they had it better than you

Of course it doesn't, and at no point did I remotely say anything like HG people had it better than me.

I was simply offering my life experiences that I find working for my own survival in our modern world to be much more enjoyable than going to work to earn money to pay for that survival.
I think it's worth noting that when you see Figure 1, with its 0-10 scale, Germany may be at the bottom of the cluster, but it's a fairly narrow, fairly satisfied, cluster overall.

This is not a new issue. I’ve been hunting down some very specific issues of some very obscure journals for years.

To make things more complicated, some of the journals were privately published for a private audience, but to simplify the logistics, anyone could subscribe.

Such issues sporadically found online and in libraries.

Wouldn't we need, like, evidence or something to believe that possibility?

We have mountains of direct evidence with underlining theory for the straightforward explanation. Sometimes we need to believe that evidence.
Sorry, I only saw this question now. It does get applied to raws but I think in a non-destructive way (this is also true of Nikon cameras, if you look at the untouched, non demosaicized image you can spot the hot pixels).
Secondary thought: if bitcoin are distinguishable (if their generation can be traced), are the early coins more valuable than recent ones? Or a wallet with more ancient "genealogy"?
Hamas is a resistance movement and they have every right to resist by any means necessary.

the same way the French resisted against the Nazis or the algerians against the French occupation.

I don't hear french resistance being called terrorists despite sabotage operations, assassinations of nazi personnel and executing collaborators.

they carried a successful military raid, captured hostages and exchanged them for Palestinian hostages.

I completely reject the classification of Hamas as a terrorist group by countries that won't even join the international criminal court to protect their war criminals.
I absolutely said something substantive. But I'll make it even more explicit: Al Jazeera has an untrustworthy track record, and their unverifiable primary-source reporting should not be assumed impartial.

This is only the "genetic fallacy" if you assume that the trustworthiness of Al Jazeera articles is uncorrelated. My entire argument is that this publication is systematically not impartial, and wants to convince you of a particular (Pro-Palestinian) position.
We would have to see a 2x minimum YoY cost increase just to justify a poliot program to consider moving to something else

Keep in mind it is more than just shifting all of the VM workloads to a new platform something not easy in the first place

But you also have to factor admin training, backup and recovery systems, monitoriting systems, automation tooling, etc.

We have been using vmware since version 3 or 4, our entire team is almost exclusively training on vmware, with limited knowledge on hyperv and virtually none on anything else

Something like ProxMox that has no third party support, no veeam support, limited automation tooling, limited support for commerical monitoring (like PRTG) etc etc is probally a non-starter unless those things support it.

It would cost us far far far far more than 3x licensing increases to git rid vmware. Broadcom knows this.

Honestly VMWare has not been increasing its prices as aggressievly as other vendors anyway, of my software licensing fees I pay annually vmware is one of the cheaper vendors I have, not even breaking into the top 10, I pay more for Veeam, Windows Server, and many many many other things than i do vmware
> Additional friendly reminder that Bush Jr is responsible for Hamas.

Israeli policy during the occupation is responsible for Hamas, and it existed before W had any foreign policy influence.

Blaming Bush for Hamas because he was somehow responsible for the elections happening is stupid. The elections happening was a good thing. Fatah stupidly rejecting the idea of a national unity government was a bad thing. Israel deliberately seeking to assure a Hamas victory by interfering with campaigning, and voter registration, conducting a targeted campaign of arrests of Palestinian politicians, and doing everything possible to make the Fatah-led PA look weak, complicit, and corrupt in Israel's favor in the immediate runup to the elections was horrible -- but predictable given the entire history of Israel actively promoting Hamas, from its founding, as a tool to divide Palestinians and assure that there was a public face of opposition less sympathetic to, particularly, the population of Israel's Western Allies (particularly the US) than the more secular nationalists of the PLO during the height of occupation, and Fatah as a political party once there was an entity to have political parties.

The point is that it is unlikely someone will get alcohol related cancer.

My anecdata is that people who has alcohol addiction are dying earlier, but not from cancer. Main causes of deaths are liver failures and drunk accidents(like freezing to death in winter or DUI).
I'm not sure how this reply relates to my post, which didn't mention prayer at all. You can pray for a good parking spot for all I care, it's really none of my business.

Israelis don't view them as less than human, that's ridiculous and refuted by numerous polls and surveys of Israeli society. Israeli Arabs are represented in the knesset and have equal rights to any Israeli citizens. (Although in places like East Jerusalem which is neither Israeli nor West Bank, they are treated halfway in terms of security restrictions or building rights, which is where most of the accusations of discrimination come from.)

Hamas are not freedom fighters of oppression. They are an implacable anti-semitic bloodthirsty terrorist group who murder and oppress Palestinians as well as Israelis.

The true resolution is for Palestinians to give up on the idea of destroying Israel proper and cease the non-stop attacks on Jews from 1929 until today, which in turn will result in no need to monitor and control against these constant threats on Israeli lives.
Hamas killed Bedouin Arabs on October 7th too.

Even according to the way you wish to view the conflict, after the 2005 disengagement from Gaza, what excuse did Hamas have to commit murders of Israeli civilians?
Hi Eric, I’m a professor of human centered design in the Netherlands and I help train design students to prototype and design new AI user experiences. Could you share some ideas for AI experiences that you don’t have time to pursue but wish other people would explore?

Manufacturing is tied to national security. Even if those cars are of terrible quality, the Chinese government can subsidize them (they already are) to the point they are valid competitors to normal quality cars. On the surface, this is a win to consumers as this would drive down prices and expand options. But to the US government, this would kill many automakers and factories and reduce national production capacity in time of war.

A very significant factor that allowed the US to completely dominate WW2 was its intact infrastructure and the resulting high manufacturing output. When you churn out ships and tanks in matter of days while your enemy, even with superior technology and quality, takes months to do so, you win. Japan's ships were incredibly well built but they lost the war because they can't replenish fast enough.
The stated objective of the blockade was mass punishment to keep the Gazan economy "on the brink of collapse".

You keep dropping links for me to chase instead of just reading between the lines. Police cannot issue their own subpoenas. Police are not judicial officers. However, they are getting judicial officers to write their subpoenas. A judicial officer does not have to be a judge, therefore the standard is lower than a warrant.
