It also maybe implies that the selective service is responsible for it's own funding and ignores that it's entire a creature of DoD and Congress. It's hardly a bureaucracy run amok for its own purposes. The funding in 2022 was $31.7M. DoD has a lot of contingency plans and that's not a lot of money to spend to fund one of them even if the likelihood putting it into action is small.

Just from a technical perspective, I wonder if this was done via a system prompt where a potentially well-meaning instruction, "Display every ethnicity equally in all photos" could backfire or whether this is seared into the model via the reinforcement-from-human-feedback training data.

I like the idea of plaintext accounting and have tried a few of these options a number of times, sometimes pretty earnestly, but have never landed on a satisfactory flow. I've always ended up spending quite a lot of time building out the tooling around trying to fetch from now more than a dozen accounts and then munge/categorize things acceptably. In the end, I just fall back to pressing "Download All Accounts" in the clunky-but-serviceable Moneydance (local data FTW).

It's not so much people disagreeing about keeping the Earth habitable and more so disagreeing about what that means or entails.

I think that’s just you. The word formation made perfect sense to me the first time I read it.
What happened up to "do_anything()" cannot matter - if you don't like interpreting it as actual time travel, you could alternatively interpret it as the UB rearranging the atoms of the universe to look like some different past happened - no time travel, but result is the same. (done literally you might encounter some issues with physics, but in most practical scenarios reversing some operation after it has happened is plenty simple; and in cases where it's not a C compiler most likely couldn't even have a way to optimize it out, as arbitrary code may include "exit()" at which point removing the invocation is wrong)

"defined behavior that is explicitly illegal to rely on" is a nice oxymoron.

What your certified compilers do or don't support is all a question of self-inflicted problems. (I happen to believe "certified" compilers are primarily a waste of time - with humans writing code/specifications, miscompilations are gonna be an extremely insignificant source of problems, and basically none if you do any amount of testing)

I haven’t used strtok in a long time but my recollection is that it mutates the original string by placing a NULL value at the next delimiter so “hello world” would become “hello<0x00>world” if splitting on spaces. This lets you loop with the same string passed to strtok until it is done.

It’s ugly. Would not recommend. 0/10
I recall an interview where the interviewers were asking the politician if their plan for health coverage would raise everyone's taxes, to which they responded yes - of course they would. The interviewers tried to move forward with that, but the politician then notes that this would also mean that everyone stops paying for their current health insurance - and thus quite a lot cheaper.

Sorry, I feel like I'm not getting my point across: if building independent software that implements a "federated" protocol doesn't give you a "PDS" then the protocol has failed.

Isn't it the case that aluminum, while easy to recycle, it's quite energy intensive to do so ?
No, because the code as it was written is still evaluated and executed. Said execution happened to become static at the time the program was compiled and 3 out of the 4 times it was executed an effect and binary output was generated.

In all the cases that the hypothetical -Wubelim would cover the written code would be evaluated by the compiler and 'as it's undefined it can't ever be true, silent elimination'. That's the case where the human that wrote the code and the compiler that's interpreting a specification to claim that code can't ever do anything. Rather than transliterate the code as it was written to the machine instructions the programmer probably expected to see were this native machine assembly they'd written, the compiler behaved differently, silently.
The way I see it, it works for all the above. Passkeys are available on all devices, and whatever contact method the attackers use will harvest a signed response with an invalid RPID (a credential that won't work).

Is that the point you were making?
the "Stupid DNS Tricks" section says using dns to map clients to a nearby pop is a trick. they predicted this trick would be used for decades and it seems like they were right. i know cloudfront uses this in some fancy form.

i don't know if i'd call it a trick though. if you have multiple pops, dns feels like a natural place to control what traffic goes to which pop. you will need resolvers to be well behaved which will never be the case. not all will respect ttls and use the client subnet extension but a lot do. dns gives you a nice knob and hooks to apply rules to control the traffic to each pop. this paper i think describes the idea well https://www.sigcomm.org/sites/default/files/ccr/papers/2015/....

if using dns like this is a trick, what is the right way to map a client to 1 of multiple pops? anycast?
You’re correct that to get clients you need to prospect, and one of most effective ways to prospect is networking.

You can start now with your existing network. Just let everyone know you’re available for work, and see what comes your way.

real high leverage networking is done at the job, in my experience.

What do I mean by networking on the job? I mean establishing good relations with others at your current gig - not just your contact that hired you. Treat whoever you work with well and make sure they have your contact info.

My best clients came from people at previous gigs that I didn’t know at first and weren’t my contact. But they would remember “the contractor my boss hired at the last company I worked at was great and was so nice to me and I have his number” and then bam you have a new gig. People start their own companies and need help, they get a new job and are put in charge of hiring, or someone asks them for help and they drop your name.

Everyone you work with is a potential future gig. So don’t just focus on the work, also focus on getting to know everyone you work with.
Show HN: Library for local Face Recognition in .NET
I created this library because Google Photos's face search fascinated me for quite some time, but I wanted to achieve similar results on my local machine, fully under my control. After I had read up a bit it was clear that very capable models are freely available, e.g. in the ONNX model zoo, but using them still requires quite some work before you have an easily usable API. Thus I created FaceAiSharp, to hopefully make Face Recognition and Face Detection more easily usable for developers on .NET. I also created an interactive in-browser demo that demonstrates how to use it and how some basic principles of Face Recognition work [0]. If you give it a try and run into any issues I'm happy to help [1].

Multiparty systems can become completely deadlocked as well. Belgium has had complete deadlocks because nobody can form a coalition, Israel had five elections in three years for similar reasons, Britain was effectively deadlocked under Theresa May, and Canada has had outright minority governments.

This looks like excellent mainstream media coverage of the problems with keyless entry systems.

Highlights:

- A graph showing car theft is increasing in England and Wales, and a quote from a major insurance company: "owners of modern keyless vehicles were twice as likely to make a theft claim"

- References (with links!) to security research predicting the problem in 2011

- “The prevailing view was that criminals are nowhere near educated and smart enough to break into the internal car electronics,” he said. “What they didn’t realised was that somebody would make a box and automate it all for them.”

- No mention of the Flipper Zero, instead "The Observer last week found a range of devices for “programming keys and emergency starts” being promoted online for up to £5,000"

- Hyundai say they are working with the police, but Toyota are improving their technical security.

Yes because we pay core charges on items or get back money for the metal.

I think all these tutorials and showcases showing CLI usage for plaintext accounting kinda miss the mark and ultimately hinders adoption. 99% of the times I interact with ledger is with the same 4 commands. The fact I have the ledger file open in emacs and use these commands from a keybind is what makes the experience great. Trust me, if you need to run some complicated analysis, (h)ledger has your back and you can find how to do it in the docs. Most of the time you don't so just go and start bookkeeping. You need your file populated to see any benefit, and they'll become obvious when you get there.
