This is the "not a racist bone" defense, implying that you need privileged insight into someone's intent, motivations, and personal beliefs to call them racist. Which of course we rarely ever have.

Another choice is to look at outcomes. Racial exclusion is a predictable result of these policies. It does not need to be the intent. People who consistently support policies with racist outcomes can be called racist. It's a useful shorthand, not a conviction of their soul.

Racism doesn't need to be a matter of personal malevolence. Taking self-interested action with known & predictable unjust outcomes is sufficient.
How does parking fix this, though? The same number of cars need to arrive and leave at approximately the same time. Each car takes up the same amount of space. And it's not like children can all just run around the parking lot looking for their own parent's car, which is almost certainly in a different place than it was at drop-off, never mind the danger of having a parking lot full of lost children wandering around.
If the label contracts were structured as loans that had to be repaid, I agree with "completely false".

But if, as I suspect, most contracts were structured as advances, then if the musician was successful, you could look at it as the musician just having gotten a loan.

But, famously, most musicians aren't very successful, and they aren't in general asked to pay back their studio time.

So I don't think "completely false" is a reasonable response to "the label paid for studio time".
There are smaller ISPs around the US that may or may not be more consumer-friendly, but they tend to be very limited in terms of their regions and availability. Even in urban areas, the choice tends to be between the standard duopoly of either DSL or cable, and the dominant providers tend to aggressively undercut on price or lobby & litigate until the competitors go out of business.
Thanks! You should still be able buy it, you might have to either click on "Paperback" or "Hardcover", if you want to get the kindle edition you have to go to the Amazon webpage that serves you country (e.g. if you are in the UK and you are on amazon.com you get "This title is not currently available for purchase", but if you go to amazon.co.uk, you get buy it). That's an odd user interface issue...
This is good. It pushes people to use cash, debit, or soon, FedNow instant payments.
Oof, I appreciate you pointing that out because somehow I got the first part and skipped that one. Yeah, I could see that working, but it sounds inefficient.
I'm not sure about Cloudflare. Their free tier vastly reduces the barrier to entry for setting up a DDoS as a service business (without it you'd need to have very expensive hardware for circumventing DDoS attacks, as otherwise you'd get DDoS'd by your competitors). This in turn increases the demand for Cloudflare's services to protect against DDoS attacks.
Isn't NY notorious for having a "paradoxically" huge vacancy rate due to the strong incentive to never show a decrease in rent, even if it comes at the expense of a vacancy? It's the same problem, just with different clothes: a blighted building in the middle of an expensive city rather than a vacant field in the middle of an expensive suburb.

I can't speak to Austin, but I would expect to see the same thing in the form of low-value land use. It happens whenever appreciation competes with or outstrips productive activity. Which is extremely common.

Investors should pay the collective for exclusive use of a scarce resource, they should not get paid for holding exclusive access to a scarce resource. That's bad and backwards. Unless you're an investor, of course ;)
The people who spend their youth partying and not worrying about the future or are

> more risk-taking

(per the op)

are the people who will not bother asking themselves these questions or will simply shrug and say "i dunno we'll get through it" and just do it

It's a mindset of just doing things without worrying about them or their consequences. Of course there's ups and downs. Like the poster above said

> the same social limitations that prevented you from partying as a younger person, probably also prevent you from enjoying your nice stable life to the fullest

It's a mindset of how to live life. You don't care about these questions, which you pay for later, but that's future you's problem
A city here in Norway had issues because rich people would just pay the $75 fine instead of following the parking regulations (ie time limits). Somehow repeat offenses did not escalate the punishment.
Can you please explain why trashing starship makes sense.
> Would it be fair to say that the perpetrators could have covered their tracks better? Could they for example, have fixed the valgrind errors? And if so, would this backdoor have remained hidden for much longer?

Yes. Mostly they should have reduced the cost of starting up sshd with the backdoor. A lot of that seems to be due to all the symbol lookups they needed to do, while staying obfuscated. It feels like they started with a reasonable set of features and then just piled on more and more, leading to the noticeable cpu usage.

I think the valgrind warnings were only triggered when using -fno-omit-frame-pointers. Which, at the time they wrote this stuff, wasn't the default anywhere. They got unlucky in that Fedora changed to default to that and that I happened to have that set in my valgrind tests.

> What was the moment like, when you realized you have stumbled upon a backdoor? I mean, it is riveting just to read the various reports of this backdoor!

It was many hours of slowly figuring that out, room for different emotions. Lots of nervous cackling. Thinking I must just be hallucinating. Worry about how to deal with this. And more...

Edit: Grammar
The problem is who gets to determine the value of that land. If the government wants you to write software for them for a year, you can protest that you’re a 10x developer deserving millions of dollars all you want, all they need to do is look at your tax return for the last year and pay you double or whatever.

On the other hand, if your family has been living on that ranch and tending that land for hundreds of years, and every generation has contributed to building out and maintaining the homestead, the government can’t properly say “well that derelict lot down the way sold for 100k, we’ll give you 1M and call it fair”.
I'm with you. After trying a few of those delivery services and finding them poor at best, I've gone back to only ordering delivery from places that do it themselves.
Oh yes they can, that question has been settled in the aftermath of the Yugoslavian Wars [1, page 148]:

> 46. The law is thus clear: a hospital becomes a legitimate target when used for hostile or harmful acts unrelated to its humanitarian function, but the opposing party must give warning before it attacks

I wonder how that could be measured.

I also think it's the most divisive topic here (for the last few months at least), but since it's obviously very personal for me, it's hard to know if that's a bias in my view.
Yea, that makes sense. I think you can conceivably define a megaregion to include places like the PNW corridor, the bay area, research triangle, etc. I'm just a bit baffled how Spokane and the region between makes the cut. Seems like the author just wanted to draw a bigger circle.
> Now we need to DEMAND it.

Demanding it is part of what "we'd do better if we put down our phones".
120Hz US, 100Hz EU. It flickers at twice the main's frequency. It is because the LED drive/power supply electronics is too cheap to have enough capacitance to maintain the LED powered while the alternating voltage is crossing zero.

I used to get headache from flickering CFL lights in store when I was a kid. Those days only the worst LEDs make me uncomfortable.

Some LED bulb will flicker with a really sharp cutoff, they are the worst. Many will flicker, but not down to zero light. This does make a difference.
Can you provide examples of 2 services that interact with one another? Do the services call each other, or do clients call a service that then calls another service?
Being realistic, we're going to put any CO2 we manage to pull out of the atmosphere (if we can do it at cost at all) on a balance sheet.

We already do this in various places. For instance, if you dedicate land to growing a forest in Germany to offset your carbon emissions, it is added to the emission trade balance of the country no matter if you intend for it or not - you can't offset.

Hamburg Airport tried to do this as a publicity stunt, and only later noticed they're doing nothing for the CO2 bottom line.
I don't think people suck at all, politicians do suck though. Numerous ones are clearly on the direct payroll of fossil fuel companies.

And I mean, you're basically conceding then that the doomerism has merit, even if we might disagree on the specifics of why. Then why judge these kids for being depressed? Irrespective of what you decide to park as the "real cause" of the problems, the problems remain and the power structure is either refusing to or is incapable of solving it.
It's worth pointing out that some of the most problematic zoning regulations were indeed enacted due to racism. Huge minimum lot sizes with large setbacks, for example, made housing very expensive — combined with redlining and making it extremely difficult/impossible for PoC to get loans <- Very racist.
Maybe it uses threads.
> That a company isn't a person. We know this because a person has rights a company doesn't

It would appear that this view is not widespread:

"In law, a legal person is any person or 'thing' (less ambiguously, any legal entity) that can do the things a human person is usually able to do in law – such as enter into contracts, sue and be sued, own property, and so on. The reason for the term "legal person" is that some legal persons are not people: companies and corporations are "persons" legally speaking (they can legally do most of the things an ordinary person can do), but they are not people in a literal sense (human beings)."

Determining When Government Officials Are Barred from Censoring Critics
The full title of the article is:

> U.S. Supreme Court Does Not Go Far Enough in Determining When Government Officials Are Barred from Censoring Critics on Social Media

The court case in question is Lindke v. Freed (https://www.scotusblog.com/case-files/cases/lindke-v-freed/).
You have no way of knowing that. Remember, the parent poster is referring to the current ridiculous hype + push of current AI. Current AI models were trained on copyrighted material. Lawsuits are taking place.

Many different members of the US government have indicated that just because AI is new and fancy, does not mean companies get to violate established law, including copyright. The head of the FTC was the most recent person to state this.

OpenAI could very likely be sued out of existence. When that happens, all who invested in them could lose billions. The US government very likely won't intervene because there are multiple lessons to be learned from this.

Courts are there to enforce the law, regardless of how "amazing" a technology may appear.
Tonal is great! I use it extensively here: https://app.bars.ai

There are a few small areas where the library hiccups, like with bigger chords. I've been able to work around some of those things by reframing the chord as an inversion of N relative to the root of whatever scale I'm in. I haven't bothered to debug why it does that, but my little work around has been sufficient.
> I'm people. I had a secret LLC.

Your LLC is intangible. It can't do people-y things like shake my hand.

Intangible IP would be something else that isn't people - we're just less confused about that.
It looks like you're getting downvotes, but most kids would think this was an awesome way to get to school!
This would be a great piece of art for a very niche space, like my office =)

The fact that it actually works is just bonus.
This is like some sort of zero-day exploit they accidentally discovered and burned at once.
> Isn't NY notorious for having a "paradoxically" huge vacancy rate due to the strong incentive to never show a decrease in rent, even if it comes at the expense of a vacancy?

Yes, but that's due to financing restrictions. Unless one is planning on putting a tax burden on every piece of real estate analogous to full leverage, the cost of financing an empty unit providing unsufficient motivation to fill it seems to imply a similarly-scaled LVT wouldn't either.
That is not what they said. If they meant that, they would say: "Apply Pay doesn't collect any transaction information." They explicitly added the clause: "that can be tied back to the user". That means they do collect transaction information.

As they are only bound to providing a interpretation of "that can be tied back to the user" that is "technically correct", like how a monkey paw only needs to technically grant your wish, all they have to do is not link the transaction to your name and they have technically fulfilled their end of the bargain. That their highly paid legal team deliberately did not disclose higher standards means we should not engage in wishful thinking. They can tighten up their legally binding language if they want some trust.
Did I miss the plandex-cloud repo? It seems like it's proprietary at this time. I couldn't find the AWS design, billing system, user dashboards, and admin dashboards.

Can you point me to the missing code?
>> There's a reason he gets hired over all the military folks in the scene immediately blasting away at the aliens in the shooting range.

Yes, because he's Will Smith.
My credit score is 850. What now?

It's funny that every bit of that information is demanded by employers, and they usually don't reciprocate. It's only considered "sensitive" information because our society is incompetent and corrupt. The secrecy that protects the rich and powerful is an artifact of that corruption. In a just and competent society, none of that information could be used against us, because we wouldn't be using identifiers as secret keys, and harassers could be identified and punished.

If you have to hide to feel free, you're not actually free.
But that CO2 is then theoretically recaptured to make more fuel, right? At least if the carbon in the methane is sourced from the atmosphere in the first place.
I wasn't necessarily trying to point fingers at a specific party. I wanted to better understand the parent's comment and while doing I wrote what I assumed was meant by them. I agree that to solve this issue that has been going on for many, many years we will have to go to the root cause and address that.
This intrigues me, what is the principal cost?

Don't get me wrong, I'm certainly open to the argument that land use policies are a problem. And I am no fan of minimum parking rules. At the same time, I also know that parking doesn't cease to be a problem just because you don't want to build it. I've had the joy of going to a doctor's office where I couldn't figure out where to park within a 5 block radius of it. What was a convenient doctor when I lived within that 5 block radius turned into a miserable experience when I moved a bit further away. Same experience when dropping the kids off for a birthday party in some denser part of town. (At least there I can gripe to the kids saying they need to bike the 10 miles next time. Isn't that far, all told. :D)

Back to the question, labor strikes me as a thing that would be rather expensive for child care. Specifically, child care that isn't staffed by teenagers and has adequate staffing for the number of kids being cared for.
They're on triple redundancy Ceph as far as I know, not geo redundant, but at that price you can buy one in Germany and one in Finland and still come out cheaper than B2.

You also only get a very locked down shell.
It's hard to backup with data since the IRCC doesn't release any useful information publicly. So, yes, mostly anecdotal. Also, people committing fraud rarely come out and admit it if they are not caught. So how would we know?

I've personally seen quite a few cases of marriage and family related fraud. I've been to fake weddings for immigration purposes. I personally know people that have assumed deceased family member's names for the same reason. Some countries have very bad paperwork so it's not difficult to fake these things and nearly impossible for IRCC to confirm. I've straight up been given advice that would be fraud by an IRCC approved immigration lawyer.

Just search on Google "canada immigration fraud", or any other similar term and you will see countless cases where people have gotten caught. I seriously doubt we are catching even a tiny percentage of the fraud - but obviously numbers on this are impossible to know. So anecdotes are about all we can get.

The case of the 700 Indian Students comes to mind - https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/canada-says-it-won-t-deport-inter...

Note that these "students" were not deported, which only encourages others. It's common for foreign (out of Canada) immigration consultants to "guarantee" visa's to their customers.

Look around the immigration forums and services available online. Clear and rampant fraud. We have immigration consultants running "colleges" out of the same strip mall as their immigration office.

As I wrote above, I'd recommend checking out Darshan Maharaja's X feed as he follows these things much closer than myself, if you have interest - https://twitter.com/TheophanesRex.

> Do you have a source of that? In my experience it just leads to longer processing times, not being waived through.

No. But with a backlog of 2.2 million applications and a government order to eliminate the backlog it's hard to believe it's not happening.
I've done it several times, with different RPC systems.

DCE was the hardest and least flexible. gRPC was the easiest and most flexible. Sun's ONC RPC was easier than DCE, but only a little.

If you have a case where a function call would work locally, gRPC will be better than REST because it forces users to strongly type their arguments rather than stringly type, as REST or XMLRPC allows. There's just less places for semantic arguments to happen. You can pass data structures in a lot of RPC systems, which can make a difference.
Do you have better data, or are you just being an asshole?
Hi @rsc, I just saw your update on the timeline.

To be more precise, the first public comment asking to dlopenify lzma was dated 30 Jan by Daan: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/31131#issuecomment-1...

The day after, it was reiterated by Lennart: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/31131#issuecomment-1...

But if you look in the systemd repo there is a TODO file with a section of libraries which needs to be lazy loaded.
liblzma was added in this list in June 2020 (https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/cdfd853744ee934869...) by Lennart, and removed by me just after that my PR was merged.
To add something I forgot to say, yes, AI as a concept is here to stay. The current hype surrounding existing companies will not, however.
Google Nerfs long-standing long press Home button for Circle to Search
I got Circle to Search on my Pixel today and am shocked they decided to have it take over an old, common function: Holding down the hold button, which has always launched Google Assistant.

The idea that disrupting a long-held UX by a company like Google is really surprising.

On top of that, in the age of AI and chat-like solutions, the idea that the core way to access Assistant functionality would be replaced is completely shocking.

Though Circle to Search is just now rolling out, lots of people on the Google Support forums are torqued, and I suspect others will be too as the feature roles out to more and more people.

Is this something that bothers/concerns you?
It's not something I would consider a complex job. A simple prompt to chatgpt could even produce a working CDK template.
I've tried it.

I've had it be horribly slow, wickedly fast, and also absolutely fail to work at all.

The wickedly fast method seems to involve the two devices forming an ad-hoc WiFi network -- just for themselves. 802.11ac/ax is pretty darned fast when there's no competition, on a network with exactly two nodes, and when those two nodes are separated by only a couple of feet.

IIRC, this is not the default mode of operation.
> Remember living in 110 app building with zero parking. Wasn’t fun.

Isn't the clear implication you shouldn't own a car?
That seems like a huge waste of space for the 99% of time it's not being used?
But the open source models have Open AI compatible APIs, so as long as you can set the API endpoint you can use whatever you want.
Of course there is. CO2 and methane are not equally bad, methane is about 100x worse initially. After about 60-70 years the lines cross and the impact of a tonne of methane released is less than a tonne of CO2 released at the same date.
Not having a governing body that genuinely works for their interests does not invalidate their rights as humans.
The issue here is that running a website at all is hitching yourself to the google bus.
I've been watching a YouTube channel named Climate Town that recently did a video talking about natural gas, and leakage was a focus point in the video. It's like a documentary-style comedy channel, and I quite enjoy both the content and the format. It reminds me a bit of Jon Stewart and John Oliver.

This shows the flicker fusion as bottoming out just over 60Hz; this conflicts with the fact that a large fraction of the people I know can see flickering in fluorescent lights and CRTs at 60Hz. One roommate I had could tell if my monitor was below or above 72Hz (this is for a static image, so unrelated to FPS).

> NixOS unstable also shipped the compromised version, but was not vulnerable because it does not patch OpenSSH to link libsystemd

In addition to not including those patches to build OpenSSH against systemd, Nixpkgs builds liblzma from the GitHub snapshots, not the dist tarballs, so the source Nixpkgs builds from never contained the malicious m4 scripts that actually inject the backdoor code in the liblzma binaries. Plus those scripts explicitly and exclusively target DEB and RPM builds, so they wouldn't have run on Nix or Arch builds.
Google basically just surfaces content marketing these days. It killed the blogosphere. Anybody who isn’t promoting their crap full time is invisible now, and so corporations basically generate almost the entirety of the content we get to see now

The main issue isn't the CPU as such, it's memory. You can reasonably make a usable CPU using relays even, but a non-trivial amount of memory takes up sooo much space.
Stop occupying and brutalizing them, and agree to two states along the 1967 borders, as called for by both international law and every other country in the world.
Let's drop the requirement that the server is from a "official" .gov domain, wouldn't it be possible to be operated by some NGO-type entity?

Another possibility... couldn't this be operated by PBS, which would then have an extra audience and potentially create new ways to generate revenue?
This supports their narrative, doesn't it? If they were unrelated then there would be no correlation, but if your track into adulthood is less fulfilling and secure than your childhood then you wouldn't be happy.
