>(Jeff Bezos): "Your most junior person can overrule your most senior person, if they have the data to back it up. In your meetings, the order of voice should go from the most junior person, to the most senior person."

Wholeheartedly agree!

Phrased another way:

"Data is senior to seniority."

(At least, let's presume that it is, or should be, 99 times out of 100 -- 99% of the time -- barring exceptionally rare and unusual situations and circumstances. Accumulated Wisdom over a lifetime sometimes trumps Data ("What is the exactly right thing to do given this situation, given this set of circumstances?") -- so Wisdom > Data > Corporate Seniority, although in an ideal world and under normal circumstances, all of them should be in exact agreement...)
There's much insanity and cruelty that's done in the name of fighting drug use.

I don't think restricting sale of medicine that is often used to make methamphetamine is one of them. Back when it was over the counter, how much of the profit from selling pseudoephedrine decongestants was really profit from selling a meth precursor?

Private profits from legal meth seems like a problem any society has to deal with.
> I don't understand the point of comments like this,

I mean the point is pretty straight forward. A study like this is tautological. "self driving cars are safe on exactly the fraction of hand selected roads where self driving companies are willing to put them" doesn't tell us anything. It's a fluff piece.

If you want to make an actual assessment about the safety you need data from randomized, representative roads, not 0.x% of the streets in America. Which itself is a very generous country to pick. Put these things into peak traffic in Rome for an hour

Custody is violence.

Most people respond with patience, because they understand deescalation is their best move. This person has Autism. I think it's not a leap to conclude that he simply doesn't understand that deescalation is the right move. He may not even realize or totally comprehend that deescalation is an option!

If you want to convince me this person is a menace to society, then talk about his behavior before being arrested. What did he do then? Oh, that's right, he shared video of an unreleased game... Why should I, or any other person feel threatened?
My truck came with a short SiriusXM trial, and they have not relented in spamming me with physical mail, email, and phone calls, all to try and get me to renew. I'll stick to my downloaded music and Spotify.
That seems plausible, but speed is probably an important requirement. Bowling alleys often charge by the hour, so who wants to go to a bowling alley with slow machines?

The traditional pinsetter machine can sweep away pins in one operation, then set up all the right pins in one more operation. A robot arm can presumably only grab one pin at a time. You probably need multiple robot arms, which adds to the cost.
For anyone who skips the article and comes straight to the comments, this is not because of the hacking. This is because of (alleged) violence and expressed eagerness to return to cybercrime.

> The court heard that Kurtaj had been violent while in custody with dozens of reports of injury or property damage.

> A mental health assessment used as part of the sentencing hearing said he "continued to express the intent to return to cybercrime as soon as possible. He is highly motivated."

...

The details are absolutely wild too. I mean...

> The jury was told that while he was on bail for hacking Nvidia and BT/EE and in police protection at a Travelodge hotel, he continued hacking and carried out his most infamous hack. Despite having his laptop confiscated, Kurtaj managed to breach Rockstar, the company behind GTA, using an Amazon Firestick, his hotel TV and a mobile phone.

Holy shit, dude. This is the sort of thing they make movies about. I wonder how much of it is true.
No you can't. You can wipe & reinstall, but once the Mac reboots and connects to the internet, it re-installs whatever it is that the "owner" (through device enrollment) wants installed. The only way is to get the "owner" (or Apple) to release it.
I'm curious why do business at all with a company who has such practices and requires such special workarounds?
I'm just trying to understand exactly what they are advocating, because so many people seem to be making a dichotomous safety choice. It's not a simple model and my point is there are tradeoffs.

>Two car lengths is the general advice.

No. It's speed, roadway, and car dependent. Two car lengths isn't even sufficient at 25mph let alone at 70mph.[1] Which all goes to show how poorly people tend to think about these things and quickly resort to overly simplified mental models.

Like jmondi mentioned, its' the default app for messaging on iPhones.

On top of that, switching to upgraded chats by switching platforms is not as easy as it sounds because you need to convince your friends to switch platforms. And that can be a hard ask, especially for friends and family that are less tech-savvy.

You could have people only message you via text, instead of iMessage, but doing that reliably is harder than switching platforms, unless you ask someone to disable iMessage in the messages app altogether, and no one wants to do that
Did anyone here read TFA?

He was apparently shown to be a member of a cyber "gang", and expressed zero remorse. In this case, a judge basically has to do something.

> A mental health assessment used as part of the sentencing hearing said he "continued to express the intent to return to cybercrime as soon as possible. He is highly motivated."

The guy was already on bail for another hack:

> The jury was told that while he was on bail for hacking Nvidia and BT/EE and in police protection at a Travelodge hotel, he continued hacking and carried out his most infamous hack.

> He worked with Kurtaj and other members of Lapsus$ to hack tech giant Nvidia and phone company BT/EE and steal data before demanding a four million dollar ransom, which was not paid.

> They also stole directly from individuals through their cryptocurrency wallets.

So:

> He will remain at a secure hospital for life unless doctors deem him no longer a danger.

Hospital b/c of his severe autism. Ostensibly, what has to be done is rehabilitation. If he can even lie convincingly, he'll be out tomorrow.
> or Apple forced its own hand on very directly locking down messaging to the devices it sells

But that’s not really any different? Even if they hadn’t technically implemented it that way that is the intended way the service is supposed to be used. Locked to Apple devices.
I once worked somewhere that used rails in lieu of foreign keys. The result was a brittle nightly delete_orphaned records script as well as obscure user visible bugs. My team started adding foreign keys to our records and unsurprisingly caught bugs in our application code that otherwise would have been missed. Personally, I think the default should always be to usr foreign keys and only if you have a genuine scalability problem might you consider dropping them or put then in a different database with lighter data integrity guarantees.
I used to work with Blardo. His desk was right next to mine roughly a decade ago.

I think he's describing his own experience of his turbo-nuclear sense of curiosity. I don't think he ever seeks out status as an expert or architect - but that sometimes is the natural result of the way his brain works.

The grind is only a grind to those for whom work is not fun. And boring things are only boring when you look at them through a certain lens.
Can you elaborate on why the `mixing` approach doesn't work? Specifically, if you want send bounds, doing this:

trait HttpService: Send {
fn fetch(&self, url: Url)
-> impl Future<Output = HtmlBody> + Send;
}

impl HttpService for MyService {
async fn fetch(&self, url: Url) -> HtmlBody {
// This works, as long as `do_fetch(): Send`!
self.client.do_fetch(url).await.into_body()
}
}
IIRC, it is almost impossible to give a taxi cab driver a ticket in London.
Whenever location data collection comes up, I always think about that Seinfeld episode where Kramer is receiving misdialed MovieFone calls -- at first he just talks to the person and reads the movie times out of the newspaper. Very helpful.

Eventually, he starts emulating the phone menus, asking the caller "Using your touch-tone keypad, please enter the first three letters of the movie title, now."

When this doesn't work, he blurts out "Why don't you just tell me the movie you want to see???"

Why in the holy hell do app developers who are trying to provide some kind of location-specific data not just ASK YOU WHERE YOU ARE? "I'm in Los Angeles" would suffice 99% of the time. If you go to Idaho, and care enough, change your location in that app -- now you get local bulletins about russet potatoes instead of encampment fires.

This is a rhetorical question, no need to answer it, just screaming into the void.
I believe OAuth is working as expected. It provides valid authentication/identity for email addresses because "user@domain" and "user+wildcard@domain" are still validated as email addresses "owned" by the user.

The issue is with the Google org website: admins cannot revoke credentials for accounts/emails they cannot see.

> Because these non-Gmail Google accounts aren’t actually a member of the Google organization, they won’t show up in any administrator settings, or user Google lists.
I used to believe this wouldn't happen to me (I use Android phones without much issue). Then, last week, I was added to a group text for some party planning, and the first few messages in the group chat were "who here has android", "who's the intruder", etc.

Of course it was all jokey and no big deal but I still came away from that situation having learned that all this green bubble malarkey is very much real, and these were all grown adults (like, 30+ with children).
This theory is always posted in these threads but there is no answer how come the places with the most expensive real estate have no homeless. Aspen, Hamptons, Malibu, Beverly Hills, Martha's Vineyard etc. etc. do not have homeless encampments, which should have been huge according to this theory.

The trick it uses is introducing a continuity with the "easier" term. There is no such thing in reality. If you have no income you won't be renting either $1000 nor $10000 apartment despite the former being "easier" to afford. And if you have income you will move to the housing you can afford and won't be hanging under an overpass just to piss off the landlords.
Imagine the horrors being fresh out of college and inherit some APL code with Perl as glue, that was made to meet some loc metric.
I don’t understand this at all. Messaging is not locked down on Apple devices. You can message with android just fine via sms, and you can install dozens of other messaging solutions.

Why does having specific Apple only features outside of the core message set mean it’s now locked down?
Just in case Eric sees this -- We're an Apple household, but I have to use a PC for work. Beeper has allowed me to extend iMessage elegantly to my work computers. Their new solution works well for me as we have a Mac Mini always on at home. Using the registration code with Beeper's servers makes the whole thing more performant than any other alternative. I'd gladly pay them for the service.
I think you're thinking I'm doubting some ability you have to go viral, I'm not even talking about that at all. I never was, I just brought it up because you made some point like "just be sure you go viral as well", and it was a curious (hilarious) thought that I owned one of the largest viral sites.

My original comment was really simply just about....... giving your writing the headline it deserves, one that highlights your unique perspective/life experience, one draws me in. Shows me some curious aspect about your perspective I can learn from

Not to me, it's a slippery slope. Want to give someone a life sentence? Cool, all you need to do is to stamp the autism label on them and put them in a secure hospital and convict them for a crime that would get like 5 years in prison.

The point is not the details (I'm obviously not a laywer or anything remotely related to that), the point is that it seems to be a slippery slope.

I'm not sure what you define as "viable". Firefox and Chromium both have built-in PDF readers, and I believe both now allow for a t least basic form filling in. Okular is another open source PDF reader that allows for filling and even annotations that can be used to sign a document.
This was not experience when I installed Sonoma on an M2 MBP a few months ago. Enrollment was easily skipped by blocking connection to the enrollment server.

This is irrelevant for unit tests. Performance testing does not make any sense in build environment, you need to do it in an environment close to production and that’s completely different test automation scope.
Same here, but just said I want to cancel, and am screen-shotting the conversation, if it is not cancelled I will file a complaint, and they ended the chat and cancelled it. Pretty egregious that you have to resort to that. Also they have the audacity to send me letters every couple weeks to sign back up for like $4 a month. I might consider that if I knew I it was easy to cancel... so they lost a customer over it. I think they must be desperate with how everyone can just stream music almost everywhere now.
My professional experience is that blue sub-pixels for a 5500K balanced white use about 50% of total power (rather than the 66% you show). My understanding is that this is because even though Blue 460nm is shorter wavelength (higher photon energy) than RG(530&610nm) it is also less significantly less bright (in photons/sec/solid angle).

I've struggled to find a good webpage, but roughly in subpixel power% it comes to 45%+35%+4x(20%)=160%. By improving blue efficiency it could become 45%+35%+20%=100% and require only ~2/3 of the original power and total display power efficiency by ~50% (ignoring all the computation, RC losses, coms, etc).

White balanced power is independent of the number of pixels (or pixel arrangement) such as RGB vs RGGB, but RGBW or RGBY or RGBC can improve efficiency (and reduce this relative improvement %).
This is the bigger issue.

I do not trust any data in 2023, and 2024 will be worse.

I thought most vaccines were weakened viruses to prepare the body for diseases or viruses. None-the-less, very cool research.
It's well known that what is being stabilized today is lacking the Send bounds stuff. In fact, there was a lot of discussion about whether they should completely block this feature until the Send bounds stuff was ready. Ultimately I think it is good that they shipped this part of the feature even though the other part isn't ready yet - Tower isn't able to use this yet, but other crates can.
There's a ton of services like that. You pick one of the physical addresses they offer, get a unique mail address to you, and whenever mail arrives they scan the envelope, giving you the choice to either shred, open and scan contents, or forward.
I see at least two possible approaches (each with their tradeoffs, neither great):

1. For each relevant foreign key, have an additional column without a constraint where the foreign key value can be copied to before deletion. (This requires that the original foreign key be nullable.)

2. Make soft deletion universal so that foreign keys can remain and any associated rows will still exist.
You can't discount someone's response solely due to the speed at which they can think and respond. Utterly ridiculous.
> They can't do anything but trying to frighten you.

Police can rob you, rape you, or murder you in the street and even if it's caught on camera they can still face zero meaningful consequences for that. We've certainly seen it happen. They can also arrest you for something like "obstruction" or "contempt of cop" and that's something you'd have to spend time and money on fighting later in the courts. Ongoing retaliation is something else to be concerned about.

In any case, the can certainly do a lot besides "trying to frighten you"
I wonder whether there’s a measurable performance difference if instead of calling delete two times he just used the second delete with “on delete cascade”?

Just because a company chooses to spend millions of dollars to "repair" damage does not mean that the damage itself should be valued the same. We are talking about companies with tens or hundreds of billions of dollars at their disposal. An executive could choose to spend $5 million on anything: that doesn't make the thing that valuable.

Oh wow, it sounds like my understanding is off considerably. I was under the impression only 15% decrease is possible with lifestyle changes!

Can you provide any basic literature on how large of an effect can be achieved through lifestyle alone? It sounds like my vaguely recalled ~15% is way, way off.

(I do wonder how statins are so easily justified if lifestyle is so effective, but pharma profits/lobbying may explain that.)
