One of the things that the IRS looks at is who makes the decisions. If your boss decides what you work on, how you do the work, when you do the work, and where you do the work, then you are probably an employee (but there are other factors to consider as well). However, the more of those that you choose for yourself then the more likely it is that you are actually a contractor. So there are some factors in favor of the chef being a contractor. However, you are right; it is very rare for a chef to actually be a contractor. That’s because these factors are usually outweighed by others. In particular, the chef works in a kitchen owned by their employer, and they can really only be the chef of one restaurant at a time.

But this is the point of the example: both the chef and the ride–share driver make similar decisions for themselves. They both decide for themselves how to accomplish the goal given to them by their employer. But unlike the chef, the ride–share driver also provides their own car. That’s a huge financial commitment that the driver makes and brings to the arrangement. Plus, they can easily work for more than one service at a time. Sure, they can only have one passenger at a time, but they can sign in to multiple services at the same time and pick and choose between jobs offered by all of them.

So while a chef is rarely going to be a contractor, a ride–share driver probably is. They have many more factors in favor of them being a contractor than the chef has.

There's still quite a lot of illegal/semi-legal free party scene type stuff going on, especially in summer. A lot of the scene has been pushed outside of the ring, though.

Leipzig is lovely but tiny in comparision, you won't find even remotely as many clubs and parties.
Yup. I'd pay 10-20 cents. And if i could pay $1-$2.00 for a good article to let the next 5-10 ppl read it on me i'd do that too.

Why would you tell Mozilla that? Their firefox browser works just fine with WSJ, both to display articles and to subscribe to their digital offerings.

As is nearly always the case: the user is at fault.

To fix the car analogy that you maliciously broke, it's like a car that you took the engine out of, and then complain that it doesn't drive. But if anyone asks why your car is broken, you weirdly pretend that you didn't take the engine out of it, and make asinine statements about how "it has wheels, why doesn't it roll" knowing full well why it doesn't.

What are "browser choice screens"?

When you click on a link from, say, a text message, you are shown the icons of the installed browsers, tapping upon one of which- the link opens on that one. Is that it?

Or is it something else?

I thought the same, but I was pretty surprised how bad my phone's GPS performance was next to cliffs. Especially altitude was off significantly.

When thinking of turn-by-turn navigation, keep in mind that car navigation will snap your position to roads. For a better comparison, try e.g. Google Maps in pedestrian or bicycle navigation mode. At least in my experience, the perceived "accuracy" drops significantly.
> the scene is moving towards Leipzig

Speaking as someone who's split ~half my time between Leipzig and Berlin for the last 5 years, this is not true.

Leipzig's club scene is an extension of its university population. It's younger, straighter, whiter, and about two orders of magnitude smaller. People visit the clubs while they're going to school there, then they graduate and move elsewhere. Often to Berlin.

Why does this illusion exist? Because Leipzig is about an hour away from Berlin by train. Berliners visit for a weekend and think "wow, it's like Berlin in the 90s! Still cheap! And look at all these cool young kids at these scrappy clubs -- so that's where the underground has gone!". Then they go back to Berlin and spread the word to credulous out-of-towners, who go on to repeat this truism to people who have never visited either city.

In reality, Berlin's club scene -- both "mainstream" and "underground" -- dwarfs that of any other city. Nothing short of an asteroid hit is likely to change that.
Here's the issue, if you wanted to read every interesting article posted to HN on a given week who would have to be subscribed to 15-20 different paid services... which I'm sure you'll agree is ridiculous.

Currently I subscribe to Disney+ and Amazon Prime only, because I was only using Netflix for maybe two hours per week and for me, that's not worth the price.

If I use the same logic for online magazines and newspapers, there is no online text content that I use for more than two hours per week and as such, the ridiculous subs prices make no sense to me. Also, it's highly likely I would end up subscribing to say NYT, and then that week all I really want to read is something on Forbes or Bloomberg and nothing on NYT, or a similar scenario. There is too much fragmentation and the value proposition just isn't there. It's like there were 15 different streaming services with content roughly divided between them.

Sure people need to make a living but the current model just doesn't work for me. Maybe if I was "rich" I would just pay for every text based publication out there, but I'm not, and paying for something I use so little makes no sense.
How exactly does the city and federal Government square this with their plan to build a huge (unwanted) freeway through the city and bulldoze multiple clubs and music venues?

IAM is not that complicated. The example diagram for AWS is showing all the features available. You can use only what you require.

Do two things from the beginning:

1) Least Privilege - Only the permissions required: You need to do that, because due to the constant zero days around the different software vendors, you are statistically guaranteed to have a security event. Establishing security boundaries will allow to contain the damage.

In combination with....

2) Temporary Privileges - Assume the roles with the permissions you require only when you required them: This will make it harder on an attacker, since they will need to compromise you while you are holding those elevated privileges. When you finish your task, either manually or programmatically, detach from the role or assume a different one with lower or different permissions.
If you just put `set -o errexit -o pipefail -o nounset` in the first line after the shebang your script will have proper error-handling as well. Currently if any fails, notify-send will still be triggered.

>Conflating leftist ideology with BLM when BLM is explicitly a movement against excessive police violence against black people is funny - kinda says the quiet part out loud about what conservatives represent.

Would you conflate BLM with the Republican Party?
This is a quiet part?

>You can't "win in the marketplace of ideals" against these people with rigorous logic and spirited debate, if you could, they wouldn't exist, because their entire belief system depends on cognitive fallacy.

I think you don't understand how inherently axiomatic the logic of political positions are.

Just for fun: I counted four cognitive fallacies in your post.

Sweeping generalizations (conservatives ...),

ad hominem attacks (by labeling the author as a "typical American right-wing talk show political grifter" without addressing the substance of her arguments),

false dichotomies (by implying that engaging with her viewpoints through "rigorous logic and spirited debate" is ineffective and that protest is the only viable response)

and confirmation bias (dismissing the possibility of engaging with the her arguments in good faith and assuming that the only reason for their presence is to engage in divisive tactics).
I think they are stating that unless explicit proof leads you to conclude it could have only been suicide, you should implicitly expect it to be murder.

I’m not sure that is correct either.
It's very common in the US to eat the common button mushrooms found in stores, Agaricus bisporus, raw.

Lots of people do question it.
That's false. I know several things about your browser based on what you've said:

- You get errors saying that your browser doesn't support javascript.

- You're using Mozilla Firefox, which fully supports javascript

- The WSJ website works with up-to-date Mozilla Firefox out of the box

This means you've broken or tampered with Firefox using an extension or setting, or perhaps have some other strategy to disable javascript.

So what's happening here? It's either:

1. You know exactly what is happening: you disabled javascript and you're wasting everyone's time with a weird game where you pretend to be stupid

2. You are very low-skill in this area and have no idea what you've done or why

I assumed "1" because "2" is pretty unlikely for a user on this forum and quite mean to assume.

> This is self evidently true, though.

I absolutely disagree.

Conscience, empathy, shame and similar emotions/instincts that encourage pro-social behavior would only have developed if it lead to higher reproductive fitness for those who had them compared to those who didn't.

For instance, only a very small percentage of people are psychopaths. If we look at the average life outcome for psychopaths, we discover that while some of them may be super-successful, we also find a lot of them as social outcasts or in prison. And if they live in areas like law enforcements, they're also more likely to get killed.

I would say the reason should be obvious. People without these guardrails on behavior may get away with anti-social behavior for a time, but eventually people figure them out. This leads to all sorts of active and passive punishment, ranging from difficulty making friends or holding on to a job all the way to life in prison or execution.

SOME people may negate the downsides by acting in a super-rational way. But this only works for people who are both highly intelligent and who also have very good impulse control.

But for most people, having at least moderate levels of pro-social instincts/emotions will be just as beneficial for themselves as for the people around them.
So it seems 'obvious' to me that a network about 50 layers deep (for example) can only reason about symbolic questions for 50 'steps' (in quotes because it's not a step as we think about it). It only seems there's more complexity because it's 50 steps in one or more learned subspaces that the model has been trained in (which might mean the model can accomplish more than one 'human step' in its 'step'). Humans (well intelligent humans at least) seem able to obviously reason beyond those steps, but we all know it requires real thinking and deliberation and perhaps a notepad to be able to do that.

It's quite something to, for example, expect ChatGPT to be able to correctly do 4 digit multiplications without any thought or recourse to 'paper' when very few human beings can do that.

>Finally, and worst of all, gaining funding has been almost entirely divorced from the usefulness that research has to people.

By "usefulness to people" do you mean, essentially, "good for society"? Because I have a hard time believing that funding entities are simply flushing money down the toilet. They must find the research useful to their ends.
That is what it does at this moment. Will it do that 8 seconds from now? There is no signature checking.

Distributing unsigned software, then asking users to blindly execute it, is simply irresponsible.
This is happening everywhere and with everything. IMHO its a result of the inflated "elite class", that is people who are well off enough to spend their days with consumption only or they were overpaid.

As a result, these people go everywhere and do consumption and outcompete everyone who is not like them. Then everything gets adjusted to their pleasure and they consume all the resources(being housing, food, entertainment etc).

Also, the supply and demand are not able to stabilize because the money moves around the globe freely but working people can't. So when a cryptobro from Russia moves to Portugal he can consume all the Portuguese resources but he can't bring fellow Russians to work and re-supply. Why wouldn't Portuguese just work harder and make buck by increasing the supply to meet the demand? Well because the cryptobro demands luxury housing, luxury food, massages, cars and cocaine but the Portuguese in the location they moved in are maybe painters, taxi drivers, chemical engineers or doctors and they can't simply start doing this new stuff.

The folks are angry with working class immigrants but most of their troubles are actually due to a-few-millionaires who are not rich enough to do substantial long-term investment but are rich enough to consume like there's no tomorrow.

It's worse because it's coming from a particularly trusted position, an officer of the court. In the same way it is particularly heinous when a doctor physically harms someone for profit, it is particularly heinous when a lawyer legally harms someone for profit. In both cases they've taken specific oaths and have special duties above-and-beyond regular people to avoid doing such harm. In some sense the question of whether or not these bodies (doctors, lawyers, police officers) actually have higher standards or not is answered by what they do when they find a clear breach of conduct. If they do nothing, or rarely do anything to punish bad behavior, then they don't deserve their reputation for high standards and are, in fact, just a partisan group merely profiting off of a reputation of self-restraint.
It really depends on the use case.

This is ridiculous. Firefox doesn't beat around the bush with telemetry and makes this clear when you install a new copy of it to your machine. It also does not require "messing around in about:config", this option is presented to the user in Settings, in plainly stated language and in a central location (unlike other browsers, particularly Edge, and Chrome, with privacy related settings in 40 different drop down menus).
I paid for that, I buy stuff all the time and companies are taking some of that money for their ad budgets and send it to websites so that they can use it to finance their content.

1. You are using MD5 hashes which are trivial to create collisions of

2. None of your artifacts or build script are signed by you (third party signs by apple are pointless)

3. Builds have no evidence of being reproducible, or anyone having reproduced and counter signed them.

Compare to say the Bitcoin or Monero processes that have multiple people build and sign every release so it is easy to trust there were no SPOFs.

Interesting article, be helpful if there was a breakdown of why the author thinks people are dying. Seems from the article like there are three problems:

- SAR teams knowing where people are - SPOT/inReach, PLB, Recco (at a push)

- SAR teams knowing that someone is in trouble: SPOT/inReach, PLB, VHF, Satphone

- Members of a climbing team knowing where each other are: SPOT/inReach, VHF, Satphone, Meshtastic (or something of that style)

I imagine that SAR is really really hard on Everest even if you do know where the casualty is so knowing where other members of a climbing team are might be the most important one?
