I’ve also read this and I can’t explain why in the US it’s like a completely different meal compared to anywhere outside that I’ve tried it.
I knew this would come up, but couldn't think of specifics other than I've seen it go by on social media seemingly yearly.

I vividly remember one two or three years ago, of an Asian man I think in NYC who kept videoing the police calling them corrupt, telling the world if he died it was the police. Well, he died. The police said it wasn't the police. Sadly, I can't find this Googling.

I'd say it's happened enough to become a meme. When people post controversial things about big companies or politicians, people will reply telling them to make a video to say they aren't suicidal.

Careful now, some particularly dimwitted prosecutor might charge you with unlawful access to a computer system.

We need to throw away current cybercrime laws and start over with people who actually know what access means.
> No, people who own houses in sunny locations save money by legislation that forces the utility to buy power from them at retail prices (“net metering”), and without having to pay for batteries for energy storage.

As a person who owns a house in a sunny location that has solar, I think I can speak with some authority on the matter.

Firstly, we've never had net metering here. Secondly, the current price paid for the feed-in you can get has dropped below the average wholesale, in fact it's at $0.05/kWh it close to 1/2 [0]. Thirdly, some retailers limit how much feed in they will pay for (but the take it all, which pisses me off no end). The electricity wholesaler has got legalisation passed that allows them to turn off feed in from household solar at will. [1] Finally, batteries are too expensive to make sense (but that is rapidly changing), and so are currently rare. I don't know why you brought them up.

Currently we pay about $0.30 / kWh [0]. We consume about 30 kWh/day. Lets conservatively assume we get 10 kWh self use, and have a system that generates 20 kWh/hr per day. That system will cost around $4,000 here, and will return about $1300 per year power we don't pay for and feed-in. It pays for itself in about 3 years. Those figures are very conservative. In the remainder of its 25 year lifetime, the power it provides is free.

Consequently, solar roof top installations are going gang busters here. [3] I'm not sure where you are getting your information from, but it's wrong.

You're quite wrong about copyright assignment as it pertains to "works for hire".

> If a work is made for hire, the employer or the party that specially ordered or commissioned that work is the initial owner of the copyright in the work unless the employer or the commissioning party has signed a written agreement to the contrary with the work's creator. For legal purposes,
when a work is a “work made for hire,” the author is not the
individual who actually created the work. Instead, the party
that hired the individual is considered both the author and
the copyright owner of the work.

I fail to see how doing this during hours you are paid by the company, on their equipment, and for their specific operations...wouldn't be considered a "work for hire" in copyright law.[0] The VAST majority of work done by salaried professionals during work hours, at work, which can even remotely be demonstrated to benefit the employer...is a "work for hire". IP assignment agreements are redundant, and mostly only "needed" to prevent employees from trying to claim they did it all after hours, outside of work, using zero inside information they knew from working their day job. It's generally trivially easy to show that some of the development occurred during work, on work computers, at work, using inside knowledge of the company (trade secrets).

> Section 101 of the Copyright Act defines a “work made for hire” as A) A work prepared by an employee within the scope of his or her employment, or B) A work specially ordered or commissioned for use if the parties expressly agree in a written instrument signed by them that the work shall be con-
sidered a work made for hire.

Question 1: Was the work created by an employee?

Yes? Proceed to Question 2.

Question 2: Did the employee create the work while acting within the scope of employment?

Yes? The work is a work made for hire.

This seems to fall under (A). If the "bright-line" tests for (A) fail to affirmatively answer the question, then the totality of circumstances are considered via questions such as:

> Where was the work created? Did the hiring party provide the space, materials, or tools to create the work? Was the work created as part of the regular business hours of the hiring party? Was the work created during the creator’s authorized work time? How long was the relationship between the parties? Did the hiring party have the right to assign other projects besides the one under review? Could the hiring party direct the creator when and how long to work? How was the creator paid? Did the hiring party offer employee benefits? Did the hiring party remove taxes from the creator’s pay? Does the creator have his or her own business? Was the creator able to hire and pay assistants? Was the work created pursuant to the creator’s usual tasks? What skill was required to create the work?

That's a fairly accurate summary of position.

Apple doesn't have the right kind of "vision" for what they could achieve with Siri, and they don't have the stomach for the type of risk-taking that it would take to get there even if they did.

If they did, we'd be hearing about Apple buying hundreds of thousands of GPUs, not Facebook.
Good bussiness. He has a duty for profit to his shareholders yadda yadda yadda. Why even complain?
Boeing is also deeply entwined with state/political entities with a strong vested interest in preserving the status quo who may not be squeamish about direct action.

Against the general backdrop of Boeing’s woes, suiciding a whistleblower is low-hanging fruit.

Who knows. Maybe he has a deadman’s set up.
Any other alternative should surely be dismissed immediately in the land of the brave and home of the world police, the bonafide benefactors.
It’s a bit dark, but the idea of trying to get ethics approval for a study of this sort had me laugh.

> Both Wikipedia as well as Conservapedia are biased

Both-sidesing this when you have already been presented with indefensible nonsense such as “e=mc^2 is liberal claptrap” is shameful. That page hasn’t been edited since mid-2022. There’s an entire article called “liberal claptrap” linked to from that statement that has remained unedited for 7 months. It shouldn’t even exist.

That garbage is not constructive and has no place in respectable discourse.
It’s quite possible they understood but didn’t have loyalty to the company.
Lol, this will never be enforced, even if actually implemented. I want to see all mamachari being fined for the way they ride - but that's never gonna happen
See: Octopus murders.
So which one is it? So far as I can tell he didn't get "suicided with two shots to the back of the head", but despite that you still think the media is complicit in "demonstration of power and demoralisation ritual"?
Maybe he was killed by the agents of whoever. I have no non-public knowledge about this.

On the other hand, if you were obsessed with some conspiracy theory, were feeling suicidal, and wanted to create maximum effect with your death ... "it's not suicide" is exactly what you'd say.
The AI would be a compiler that generates the traditional scraper / integration test.

It would save all that long time spent going manually thought every page and figuring out which mistake we did, when that input string doesn't go into that input field or the button on the modal window is not clicked.

Change the UI? Recompile with the AI.
It's far more likely that he simply changed his mind after making the statement attributed to him than it is Boeing would arrange for him to be murdered five years after the fact.
Germany doesn't allow riding a bike under the influence either and will issue fines for it. If your blood alcohol concentration is too high, you can end up paying a month's salary and be ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation, which might even result in you losing your drivers license. They could even ban you from riding a bicycle if it's established you're too much of an alcoholic.

You're potentially a danger to yourself and the people around you. Why wouldn't it be handled appropriately?
Interesting points.

I still think some services are more prone to being naturally competitive while others are more prone to being naturally centralized. Everything is on a spectrum. Good government regulation tries to balance these natural tendencies.

I’d be curious to hear more about your thoughts on “natural monopolies”. I’ll have to look up the fiber deployment as I am not familiar with that.

> If consumers were smarter they could break monopolies without government intervention necessary.

True but that is the nature of being human. We have evolved to use heuristics and biases due to fundamental time and energy budgets with bounded computational abilities. If one looks at the assumptions made in the efficient market hypothesis it’s pretty easy to see that many of those assumptions are simply not fully true. Though they are useful simplifications for modeling at times.

> Interesting to think about what would happen if you hired two people to do one job and made them compete against each other on every task.

Oh man I’d hate to think what office politics/drama would turn into. Still would be an interesting experiment.
Which part is the key question.
> Does anyone believe that Epstein killed himself?

Yes, I believe that Epstein was a coward who took the easy way out rather than face repercussions.

If it was a grand conspiracy, why is Ghislaine Maxwell (Epstein’s partner-in-crime) still alive in prison?
Deep-fried foods are pretty much inherently unhealthy. The oil, often cheap and having a poor fatty acid profile to begin with, is repeatedly heated to high temperatures and reused for up to weeks at a time. It oxidizes, forming free radicals that increase oxidative stress and cellular damage. I'm sure it's fine to indulge now and then, but it's bad, bad stuff to build a diet on.
Android allows self-signing, though. The biggest use case of Android's signatures right now is to make sure only the packager can serve updates (and gain access to the data stored within the sandbox). You don't even need to provision any developer specific signing certificates to install these apps.

In theory Android could start using certificate verification, of course, but right now that's not being used.

Or a poisoning with a ludicrously rare poison, a strange car crash, a plane falling out the sky, dying at a gulag when you were fine a few days earlier etc etc.

It’s a very unsafe place when you don’t toe the line.
Unlikely to be legal - you aren't authorized to delete software in use on company computers (regardless of whether management currently knows it is in use), and the software you wrote is likely a "work for hire" done during work hours in the course of your duties (again, regardless of whether management currently knows about the software and how it gets used by front-line workers).

The correct way to handle this is to get ahold of the CTO or a relevant subordinate in their department, and inform them of the shadow-IT situation going on at the warehouse. Most risk-adverse IT executives would have a conniption at the idea that work policies are enacted by business logic code that zero employees understand and can modify.

>Does anyone believe that Epstein killed himself?

Yes. People of high status frequently take their lives when they realize everything's gone down the drain.
Okay, and how would that have changed the investigation when the primary cause is Boeing's incompetence during assembly?
Well I was being a bit cheeky in my answer.

Since you didn't specify under what system we need to prove that 0=1 doesn't exist, I vaguely remembered or figured there was a simpler version of arithmetic under which that concept makes sense, but which wouldn't be strong enough to fall into incompleteness territory (so it would have to be weaker than Peano arithmetic, like you said).

So I just looked it up (thanks ChatGPT), and there's something called Presburger Arithmetic, to quote Wikipedia: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presburger_arithmetic)

> The signature of Presburger arithmetic contains only the addition operation and equality, omitting the multiplication operation entirely. The theory is computably axiomatizable; the axioms include a schema of induction.

So a very dumbed-down version of arithmetic, but which does contain a notion like 0=1, and which is complete and consistent, so it can't contain a proof of 0=1.

Obviously, this is probably not the kind of thing you meant, hence my cheekily bringing it up :)
SandBoxie is a thing, but I don't know if it supports denying read access to existing files. It's more designed to stop writes.

> Not even the "good" ones want to normalize the prosecution of lawyers for committing crimes while practicing law.

Eh. Prosecuting someone for borderline calls and novel arguments is a slippery slope, but unambiguous and intentional fraud isn't that.
I had a solution for a production data sanity check solution that worked better than the one in production, however the architects were making it difficult to deploy it, even temporarily. It was just a script.

My manager offered to give me a 2nd laptop so others could run the system as needed.

(and yes, we had kubernetes, all the fancy cloud stuff, etc)
This "being steered" argument is bullshit. Are Fox News and CNN not steering their viewers toward a very specific democratic outcome? TV shows, movies, even books. Every piece of media that you consume wants to influence your vote one way or another.
>"I understand not believing in most conspiracy theories, but NONE? You really think the government's batting 100? They ain't lying about ANYTHING?"

"government lying about something" =/= "my pet conspiracy theory is true"

The government was responsible for the Tuskegee Syphilis Study, but that doesn't mean the covid vaccines contains 5g nanobots or whatever.
Despite all the criticism, there are plenty of good takeaways and a 30-member tech team for the scale of the operations, and the size of the organization is impressive.

Postgres is far from perfect:

- The codebase is old and huge, accruing some heavy technical debt, making it a less than ideal foundation for iterating quickly on a new paradigm like AI and vector databases.

- Some ancient design decisions have aged poorly, such as its one connection per process model, which is not as efficient as distributing async tasks over thread pools. If not mitigated through an external connection pooler you can easily have real production issues.

- Certain common use cases suffer from poor performance; for example, write amplification is a known issue. Many junior developers mistakenly believe they can simply update a timestamp or increment a field on a main table with numerous columns.

So, yes, PG is one of the best compromises available on the database market today. It's robust, offers good enough performance, and is feature-rich. However, I don't believe it can become the ONE database for all purposes.

Using a dedicated tool best suited for a specific use case still has its place; SQLite and DuckDB, for instance, are very different solutions with interesting trade-offs.
I continue to use SketchUp for that, as is the closest thing to CAD I can quickly work in without needing to spend a month in training first.
> deeply centralized institutions, the overall system continues to work

Until they don't. You are comparing the worst of decentralized systems (rug-pulls) with the average-to-best-case of institutions that centralize power (western democracy governments) when we should be talking about the extreme cases: autocracies and dictatorships.

> hardly a replacement for the existing institutions.

Why do people can only think in binary terms? No one is calling for the "replacement" of the institutions. The idea is to build decentralized systems as a hedge against the centralized one.

You are repeatedly giving the "so you are saying..." line and it's starting to feel like you are purposefully misunderstanding the point.

> Plenty of people are unbanked

For their own choice or because they were excluded of the system? Wouldn't it be good to have an alternative that we could have as hedge against them?

> plenty of people left Reddit

Not enough to cause it to implode, and not enough to bring a critical mass to any alternative.
> most complete nutritional sources

Fat is missing though, and there is no essential need for fiber.

And what about vitamines? Water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamines? The latter of which are probably totally missing. All of those are found in good meat, however.
Ok there are conspiracy theories, making claims about things that are unlikely. And then there is the key witness that dies in a parking lot by gunshot wound the day before he is to testify on the case he spent decades building. And then there is his friends who swears that he wouldn’t commit suicide.

Call me crazy all you want, but murder is the most probable theory here.

The money interests are massive. People kill for tens of thousands of dollars. We’re talking millions of dollars here.

Maybey cynicism broke me but I find it impossible to trust recommendations from Reddit. It's too easy for these companies to pay for astroturfing these days.
