> the researchers collected a sample of 1,920 video clips from Twitch.tv. These clips were selected based on their popularity within the most frequented categories of the platform. The sampling process was carried out from September to October 2022, focusing on the top videos within the videogame and “In Real Life” (IRL) categories, which were further broken down into subcategories like “JustChatting,” “ASMR,” and “Pools, Hot Tubs & Beaches.”

This isn’t measuring whether female streamers are sexualizing themselves. It’s measuring what kind of clips get the most views from Twitch’s audience of mostly young male viewers. It shows that they watch a lot of clips from women using Twitch to advertise their OnlyFans pages, who tend to stream in the categories listed.

There are many popular female Twitch streamers who just play video games (in categories dedicated to video games) and are not sexualizing themselves at all.
Will check it out, thank you. Also just found "tensordock" which seems to come pretty close to what I am looking for.
So this would mean you would have to dynamically generate your webservers configuration at the build time of your SPA?

And then how are you handling routes with params inside?
In your SPA they would probably be configured like

/user/:id/post/:post

Now you would have to translate that to something the webserver config understands, probably wildcard / glob pattern / regex stuff and splice that into the web server config?

I mean it's possible, sure, but that's a lot of overhead and room for error just to deploy a simple SPA, it definitely is an opinionated approach.

Reposting in short order because an earlier post was flagged is not great.

I don't do much recreational coding now, but there are a couple of recent examples:

- I needed to submit something on a website that had a completely broken frontend (like, scripts were busted). Found an old version on the wayback machine that worked and, fortunately, there were no compatibility issues. This is pretty basic, but I could have set up overrides in dev tools to restore a working version of the "original" site.

- Needed to make a hotel reservation, but the online form was broken (NaN for all number inputs, probably broken validator). Was able to guess the expected format and manually issue these requests, which worked.

I often think about technical literacy. Programmers are in this bubble where we think "oh, I'll just use grep and regex" and we can solve all sorts of problems. But 99% of people don't even know what those things are, much less have the foundation necessary to use these tools effectively. This sucks, because technical literacy does not seem to be growing at a rate that matches our societal dependence on these systems.

Because the author's argument is presenting this discussion in a profoundly dishonest and unrealistic way, and glossing over in a single sentence or two very real phenomena like gentrification (here's some cherrypicked studies most readers will never click on - there you go folks, gentrification isn't real!).

One example being - this isn't a zero sum game and rental markets don't behave like one. If someone builds an expensive condo, yes this increases supply of housing in the area, but in the event that prices increase all over the place due to cartel-like behavior (spoiler - this happens often), renters don't react by shopping around for a landlord that's beating out the price of his neighbors. For one, getting approved even to be a renter is difficult for many, so this level of flexibility/fluidity is unrealistic from the start, and two, people react to rental increases often by cutting costs in other areas or by doubling up the occupancy of the home (e.g., getting a roommate), because the choice of where one decides to pay rent is far from a perfect or efficient market at all.

This issue is far more complicated than "it's supply and demand dummy" and usually this argument is presented by faux YIMBY's who intentionally or not are acting as astroturfs for the developers, who win out big in the end no matter what.
Yes. I primarily am interested in removing hardware (and its related software) I don't use. Things like user facing camera and most of the back facing cameras; ml processing hardware.

I would pay for it with just those things removed, but would be more excited if I could exchange those parts for other things I do use. Like more battery/cpu/ram.

Currently I use a pixel7a, and the last few phones I have bought have been pixel phones. I haven't been excited about a new pixel in a while because I don't really care about the features they have been adding. I get new ones as I break them. I tend to buy the pixel phones because its pretty easy to root and modify.

Getting something with pixel-ish hardware that has more hardware focused on what I use it for and running either stock android or something graphenOS would be an instant buy for me.
The only phone features that matter to me at this point are root access and the ability to interface with all of the systems that rely on "owning a phone" that are increasingly mandatory, such as payment processors and authentication services. As far as I can tell this is not available anywhere
There isn't a whole lot of evidence for how Neanderthals lived. We have only discovered remnants of 400 Neanderthals (about 30 mostly-complete skeletons).
Unfortunately yes, because people don't understand basic supply/demand principles. It sounds like common sense/econ 101 (which it is). But the proponents of low-income housing and rent controls don't seem to believe that increasing the supply of market rate housing decreases rents in the long term.

> I think it's still a very cool factoid, but [...] is false.

Technically, that falsehood is what makes it a factoid, since it resembles-but-isn't a fact, just like how a spheroid is not a true sphere, a meteoroid/asteroid isn't a true meteor/star, an android/gynoid isn't a true man/woman, and almost every other -oid word out there.

Now, there are some philistines out there who claim that popular misuse means the "correct" definition of factoid has changed recently... But either way, I still find it amusing that everyone agrees that "A factoid is a small fact" is itself a factoid.

How I improved my GoLang Docker build times by 120x.
I'm sorry that you have such an emotional reaction about a company being threatened with a fine (not even penalised yet) for harmful behaviour which they could immediately choose to stop if they'd want to.

*

Two scenarios:
Company A violates consumer rights. Government does nothing, consumers continue to get ripped off.

Company B violates consumer rights. Government threatens fines. Company either fixes the problem (consumer hsrm reduced) or eats the fine (and the money can be used to pay for useful stuff). Either way, they can no longer gain by tipping off consumers and have every reason to stop if the fine may be repeated for a repeat offender.

*

Calculating on global profits is standard practice and is done the same theme the US calculates fines (depending on what the fine is about - you might have different reference points for different harm). This is the only solution as otherwise companies will play the usual whack-a-mole where they create an "affiliate Europe" that is legally separate but pays 100% of its net profits as a licensing fee for the brand name to the parent company, thus making 0€ (more difficult to play this game with gross sales, but there are still plenty of ways to fudge those numbers).
Super curious - How did you try keeping them up to date?

Insurance seems to be the reason for most of the suspensions. I don't have a ton of sympathy for driving without insurance, but it seems quite likely that there is a feedback cycle of punishment here that could probably be improved. Like it can be harder to get insurance once you've been caught without insurance, and there might be additional fines involved, and once you get your license suspended there's often more steps to go through to resolve that as well.

The goal of the system should really be to get everyone insured, and I suspect there are people who don't just have financial problems resolving this but also a hard time navigating the bureaucracy.

My favorite question.
Kudos on the effort for sure. Your biggest challenge is having good integrations for literally everything. Second big challenge: companies that will use open source are a rarity.

I can't express how much stuff is my bread and butter. No one wants to write scripts, that's the whole point of a soar in the minds of people using this. Really, the support is most of the cost not the product itself. Just have splunk create an app or whatever integration. Then your playbooks have to be easy to manage which I am sure you can figure out.

But then you have to implement case management too, no one wants a separate case management tool. These days, even the SIEM is expected to be just another tab/feature in the soar.

I hope you don't expect security teams to self-host either. It's a major PITA.

I like opensource, but not having support first and foremost is a huge redflag for me since I have been burned badly by foss projects. If you have a fully managed and supported commercial version of the product, that's be great.

Edit: oh and the "ai" stuff only impresses management types, great if that's your audience but at least in my experience, you better be ready to answer questions around that and expect mild hostility because of how gimmicky it is (just my $0.2)
> We can do that.

Can we? Construction is heavily impacted by cost disease.

My friend recently had a house built and the plot of land was around 15% of the cost of the entire project. The land in more premium location would still end up under 30% of total cost.
Coauthor of the original Rowhammer exploit here. ECC remains a highly effective method for turning this from a security issue to a reliability issue, mostly. As an individual owner of a server, if that server has ECC and you expect to notice machine halts due to uncorrectable ECC errors, the security implications for you are modest.

Now, if you are a cloud provider that provides VMs on multitenant hosts, your threat model may be different.

Either way, avoid machines without ECC. TRR was a lame duck even when Rowhammer was still fresh, and bits flipping in DRAM will not go away unless the economics in DRAM manufacturing change (e.g. not).

EU legislation generally sets a maximum, but then you also have to prove proportionality to determine the actual amount (damage done + fine). Any such amount will certainly get challenged in the courts, so the Commission will get its ducks in a row before actually settling on a number.

Hear,hear! I can't express this sentiment enough. Default playbooks are great but integrations with every possible tool,appliance and platform is a must.
Why shouldn't developers be economically rewarded for supplying housing in an area that demands a large amount of housing?

> renters don't react by shopping around for a landlord that's beating out the price of his neighbors

Renters certainly shop around. What makes you think they don't?

> approved even to be a renter is difficult for many, and two, people react often by cutting costs in other areas or by doubling up the occupancy of the home (e.g., getting a roommate).

Yes, and both of those issues can be solved by increasing the supply of housing. If demand greatly outstrips supply, landlords can be as picky as they want on renters. If theres an excess of supply, they will be a bit looser.

I think giving LSD to an elephant (especially 300mg, holy crap) is a very very bad idea, animals can't really be informed of its effects. You can tell a person what to expect and not to panic, but you can't do that with an animal. I wonder if that would be animal abuse also.
It's a sensor that informs its users of it how much control is needed for a networked server that can experience volatility in the form of network traffic spikes. The numerical calculus from PID controllers helps provide that crucial information. A bang-bang controller would, for example, provide very sub-optimal control, as volatility doesn't work under simple on-and-off models.
It's always fascinating to see how accomplished artists work to be in conversation with others in their medium. How do people use the past to form their current goals, and how do people use their current goals to guide their research into the past? How do they deconstruct what they think works, what doesn't? And how do they organize all of this thinking?

These are really analytical guiding questions. Although I won't have an artistic career, I'd love to learn to think analytically like these artists do.
Thanks for pointing this one out! Fixed now
> NYC fans will say that nothing compares and only NYC is NYC

That's not what I'm saying at all. When I think of mini-NYC, I think chicago. Maybe even philly. Someone saying boston is mini-nyc is like someone saying SF is mini-Los Angeles. It's absurd.

> but people outside it do think of Boston as a baby NYC.

Who? Outside of where? The nyc metro? The mid atlantic? The entire northeast? I've heard people saying chicago as being similar to NYC or even toronto and I can see the resemblance. But boston?

> It has similar architecture, people, weather, etc.

Boston has similar architecture? People? Huh? We have the same accents too?

> It’s just… less than NYC. Less food choice, less cultural options, smaller, less transit, less jobs, less people, etc.

That's every city in the country. Is SF NYC-lite? Is New Orleans NYC-lite?

It seems like people are cavalierly using 'NYC-lite' as another word for small city? Then I guess everything is a mini-NYC or NYC-lite.

To me, growing up, NYC, boston, SF, new orleans, LA, etc were viewed as unique type of cities.

Just raises the bar. It's still a penalty that doesn't relate to the misdeed, and hurts different people differently.

The problem is we use money as a form of pain, because that is one facet of it, money can sure hurt, but taking money from one person is like taking away a finger or a leg, decimating their ability to function at all things in life, and then everyone punishes that person even more, now for not being a productive contributing member of society. Meanwhile another person can supply "fingers" all day and not be even inconvenienced let alone handicapped.

But taking money as a form of pain appeals to assholes, and funds their organizations, win-win!
I drove down to Carbondale, IL last eclipse from Chicago, usually a 5 hour drive. It took 8. Not too bad! Pulled over in some country rode with a patch of clear sky. It doesn't really matter where you are: the show is up there.

The moment the eclipse ended we drove back to the interstate, which minutes prior had been empty.

It was bumper-to-bumper. Like something out of a cartoon.

The drive back to Chicago took 14 hours. I decided to follow Waze, which took me (and an endless line of cars with the same idea) through a one-lane dirt road through a bunch of farms.

The people who lived there took lawn chairs out and sat down to drink beers and watch the strange procession.

Stopped for lunch at a crossroads Panda Express. It was bedlam. Thousands of people all looking to eat something in rest stop that usually feeds dozens. The crew of pimply highschoolers resorted to slapping spoonfuls of random faux Chinese food into Styrofoam containers and giving it out for free. "Just take it!"

The only scary part was being caught by one of those Midwestern thunderstorms about two hour out from Chicago--at 2am, after diving for about 18 hours straight, sticking my hand out of the window to wet it before slapping myself on the face to stay awake (no way to pull over--not when visibility is ~zero).

Adventure indeed!

What you're missing is the incredibly vocal activist culture in cities like SF and Seattle, who demand that any new multi-family housing built include below-market-rate units. (These cities also typically extort new developments with expensive "link-up fees" but that's beyond the scope of the supply-and-demand issue).

The obvious fact that these requirements make it harder for developments to pencil out and therefore decrease the amount of new units built will never, ever occur to these activists.
Weird way to say they released a tech demo a while back of what they would eventually ship and now they have shipped it.
