I don't doubt phishing happens. I just think this specific scenario/technique is one that is probably extremely rare. The attacker likely wouldn't put this much extra effort/thought in when their basic attacks already work, like you're describing.
The population likely to use HELOCs votes more and/or is more populous, so they have more votes.

Same reason Medicare (old people) pays healthcare providers more than Medicaid (young and poor people).

> the ways the credit system holds back the poor

It would be good to understand this better. Doesn't everyone use a credit card? Not just the poor? Who are the poor in this case? Are tax deduction rules anything to do with the credit system?
I'm also thinking about a color game but not committed to make it yet. Congratulations on release it.
Well when congress passed the bill they have allocated 7.5 billion for charging infrastructure. They haven't fully spend the money. Of which 5 billion is towards states to apply for the funding. States need to apply for this. So far only Hawaii, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania have applied and built their stations(7 stations in total for 38 stalls) another 4 states have also applied and is under construction.

Twelve additional states have awarded contracts for constructing the charging stations. Then you have 17 states that have not yet issued proposals.

The remaining 2.5 billion is allocated for DoE, which will allocate funding based on proposals it receives.
Are you suggesting that palestinian militants routinely use sexual abuse?

If so, how come the reports from released hostages are so vague about it? Why would any media give credence to stories from Zaka-affiliated individuals if there were decent primary sources that didn't have financial incentives to make stuff up?

And if you have a problem with sexualised abuse, I take it you react negatively to the IDF undressing people and forcing them to participate in propaganda videos or parading them in humiliating and degrading ways?
Agreed, the people falling for this would already fall for a much more basic phishing attempt. Thus, the attacker has no need to put this much extra effort/thought into it.
In Britain they are paid as well. They get a yearly retainer of ~£6k for being on 5 min standby and are also paid per call out.
Looks promising. Does this sheet calculate both money-weighted returns and time-weighted returns?

Little Snitch could use a 1-click on/off ruleset for blocking all Apple network connections (17.x.x.x) except for the published whitelist of Apple notification servers. That would block most of the real-time phoning home. The block could be disabled manually for security updates. If notifications aren't needed, block all of 17.
Linux Mint is practically identical to Windows 7/10 in terms of basic interaction. Most people learn only a few workflows and software and do not tinker with the OS. When my SO moved to MacOS, the only thing she asked about was how to launch apps and do things like copy-paste. Everything else is still how I configured it when the computer came. Just like you don’t tinker with container images, people will be fine with Linux GUI if everything they need is there.
Ah, and minor point of order. I said "systems shape behavior" and that was vague. I meant was that systems partially shape behavior. It's one of many inputs. Maybe not the most important one, but not nothing.

I wonder how much they paid Tom Brady to be their spokesperson. They decided to market their EVs by just having a celebrity act cool/funny. Not by, you know, telling the customer why it's a good value, or why to choose their vehicles/service, or any positive aspects of their business. No, their strategy was to just push out commercials where Tom Brady would do something stupid/funny like have a power cable plugged into him, to promote EVs. It's so baffling to me that that is the strategy of a multi-billion dollar corporation. It's also depressing to think that it probably does work on at least some portion of the population. But apparently not nearly enough.
Ok, we'll leave that a mystery then!
The UK still pays well by European standards, it's the US being the outlier here.
> and reddit is hard to bribe?

It's not hard to write a post with an ulterior motive (like embedding an affiliate link) on Reddit, but it's hard to get people to vote for it so it shows up at the top of the thread. Meanwhile, content producers that feel entitled to be in the SERP are just spamming their ads and aff. links everywhere. That's why Reddit is better.

It's interesting that you exclude the top 3 vendors that EU customers tend to automatically trust when you say you use them (in my experience, anyway - I wouldn't even put toy projects in GCP these days).

If a similar announcement came from my government i'd just assume one of their mates had set up an open source consultancy business and it'd all be abandoned once enough money had been siphoned off.
Then it's not pure saffron. It just can't be.

Quality 1 saffron at ICA (largest swedish supermarket chain) is 24 euros per gram.

Anything below ISO 1/Quality 1 is cut or low quality.
Agreed that detailed documentation is required anyways. However, LLMs give you the ability to measure the quality of the documentation and the improvements in quality for changes in the documentation without having to wait for complaints by users.
They didn't even install chargers at their own parking lots. The end result is getting an EV from them would easily mean getting a flat battery if the previous driver didn't charge it or the car was in the lot for a while.

The cheese brains thought just having an EV on the lot was all that was needed and that they could charge ice prices for things like half filled batteries.

I drive an EV and would not rent one from Hertz.

I have emailed many time over the years. Got a response from dang every single time. Several accounts lost vouching privileges thanks to my emails, among other things — they were vouching clearly guidelines-breaking crap, I drew dang’s attention, and they were penalized. So, if you have a concern, just email.
It was never theirs to begin with and they turned it into a prison. They destroyed the Gaza airport and harbor. Build a fence around it so nobody could enter or leave. Refused to negotiate with the elected officials of Gaza.

Israel still has settlements in the west bank and has annexed the Golan heights. No matter which border agreement you believe is the lawful one, Isreal hasn't honored any of them.
Sorry to hear about your predicament. As far as him staying around, I'm sure it's fine to pay him out without actually making him do work.

Otherwise, hope you can find a way forward that leaves you feeling like you did right by everyone involved. Good luck.
I see that some of the email clients mentioned wrap the mail’s content in extra HTML tags and modify the CSS and classes names. I’m wondering why email clients don’t use sandboxed iframes to render HTML email? Do they still present security risks?
Good article, I wondered about the details of card rewards schemes as a kind of meta commentary on the financial system. Interesting to see that patio11 has left stripe now to work (seemingly) on this newsletter full time. I do miss the days when the articles were technical; there’s a deep software and writing skillset that we’ve lost to the financial system which isn’t nearly as fun.
But charging through many ports requires extra circuitry to support more power on every port, while booting from multiple ports just requires the boot sequence firmware to talk to more than one USB controller (like PC motherboards do, for example)
What you're describing is misaligned incentives, not a fundamental and unique failure of a society.

The question is why our incentives are setup such that greed, exploitation, etc. are favored over other traits.

Of course we will always have some level of people doing what they think is right even if it goes against the incentives in place. A system can't be stable when it depends on that though, if we want society acting less greedy we'll only get there by changing the game rather than being angry that people are figuring out the rules already set and trying to win.

Microsoft started building their new Munich headquarters in 2013/2014. Their old headquarters were already immediately outside Munich. For example, the Munich airport is further away from Munch city than the old headquarters were.

The decision to revert to a Microsoft Platform was taken in November 2017.
Not op, but I want to make private payments through the internet in the same way I can privately use cash in the real world.

Are you aware that merchants charge more for goods and services so they can offset CC merchant fees? Even a cash paying poor person who cannot get a CC is paying for this.

My comment is to show another way this is perpetrated. People saddled with CC debt could dig themselves out faster if they could write off interest.
Is Accredited Investor criteria keeping the poor poor?
My start-up is offering private investment in the company but I don't qualify to invest with the SEC guidelines in Rule 501 because I haven't been making insane amounts of money.

Pro bono legal work, which is unpaid, is actually a requirement for practising lawyers in some jurisdictions. New York is one such example.

> Often at least some members of a board-of-directors for a charity will be volunteers

Depending on how you define the terms, all of the directors will be volunteers.

The most common structure for charities is a board of trustees/directors between around 5 and 10 members, who are all unpaid and part-time. The board is led by the Chair(man, woman) of the Board, who is otherwise just an ordinary board member. The meetings are facilitated by the Chief Executive, who is not a board member but a full-time, paid employee of the charity.

Underneath the Chief Executive are other full-time paid staff who are supposed to follow the leadership of the Chief Executive, and who often don't get to attend the board meetings. This group may be any size between zero and thousands of individuals! Confusingly, some organisations call certain people in the middle-management of this team 'directors'.

To conclude:

Board: unpaid - '(Non-executive) Directors', 'Trustees' or 'Councillors'.

Staff: paid, usually full-time - includes 'Executives', '(Executive) Directors' and possibly many other non-management roles.

Some charities' boards get so large they become more like the parliaments of liberal democracies - Speakers, votes, elections.

That's only the most conventional structure - I'd be happy to elaborate on the edge cases too! :)

In Paris I rented an EV car in Paris with Avis.
I did the regular check, used the car and gave back the car.

After that, I received a letter for a missing cable in the car and I have been charged 950€.
I told them they didn't mention that cable anywhere but they refused to cancel that fee.

Don't rent an EV, it doesn't worth the price.
I'm afraid I can't help you with a list of organisations to join, OP, but there are a few things I can think of to help in indirect ways. The unsexiest and most difficult but one of the most impactful is to strengthen unions by forming/joining them. Solidarity allows us as tech workers to gain agency in deciding which work we won't do and being empowered through collective action to push back against partnerships with the military-industrial complex. We can also use our skills and the rewards of our labour to contribute to and sponsor open-source projects regarding private, encrypted and decentralised communications which allow citizens, reporters, and aid workers (not always distinct groups) to avoid the kind of government censorship which accelerates genocide.

Besides that, I'm deeply interested in this thread and other responses, as someone who's been pondering the same thing for a long time. Where I've landed is that there might not be a special thing only I can do to help the current situation using the skills I have, but that the best thing I could do is use my financial security and work/life boundaries to do the unglamorous work of civic and political volunteering. It's possible that we can't hack our way out of this, but we can support the organisational efforts of others in other ways. Protest and community organising are still the most effective methods of arousing change, and while I would like to see more civil disobedience in the digital realm, it might be that the best a tech worker can do is go and march in the city square along with thousands of others.
Yes, Bavaria is practically an entirely different state, with its' own language, religion, politics, and culture.
Certainly for the only new diagnostic I wrote for Rust, I expect an LLM's hallucinations are likely to have undesirable consequences. When you write 'X' where we need a u8, my diagnostic says you can write b'X' which is likely what you meant, but the diagnostic deliberately won't do this if you wrote '€' or '£' or numerous other symbols that aren't ASCII - because b'€' is an error too, so we didn't help you if we advised you to write that, you need to figure out what you actually meant. I would expect some LLMs to suggest b'€' there anyway.
You could conceivably do unlocking and turning it on by simply having the Hertz app installed on a smartphone that's new enough (last 10 years should be enough to ensure it has all the features necessary). The app would also always know where the car is, how much range it has, all useful information and conveniently available from the rental company app.

Agreed on the other points though, EVs are very different to what ICE drivers are used to.
The major caveat here is that dictatorships (and similar) are entirely dependent on the assumption that the few at the top will largely make the right decision for all of their society. By cutting out everyone else they lose diversity of thought and experience and risk failing miserably when the dictator(s) make the wrong choice.
Yes it does calculate your portfolio return using both methods.

The money-weighted return is simpler to calculate, leveraging the XIRR formula built into Google Sheets.

The time-weighted return is calculated using a script that cycles through each month in your trading history, calculating the starting balance / investment return / ending portfolio balance at each month. Those monthly rates of return are then chained together to calculate your aggregate time-weighted return.
Yes this is correct. I read through 1/5th of the "Net Neutrality" rules proposed back when. For every 1 rule that made sense, there were 2 rules that were astoundingly terrible and would make it so there could be absolute no competition ever with the enshrined powers that be.
When I road trip with my EV, I prioritize hotels with chargers. While it's getting better, there really is no guarantee a hotel has a charger or that it's functional.
I have been kicking around the idea of doing this to something like a NES. Then selling them preassembled. But then I remember I can solder at all and it is decently expensive to do.
Normal no but it's in the 2-3% range so not completely unthinkable and usually supported well enough by the core organisations that an company must interact with to be entirely feasible.

Most people find genocide upsetting. This isn't a video game. Tens of thousands of lives are being destroyed here.
Yeah, I'm not totally sure what they're complaining about there? Cheapest US S&P500 is 0.03% TER, as far as I can see... And so is the cheapest UTCITS one (SPDR). The ones you've linked are world index trackers, so they're a little more expensive (as you'd expect; they'll typically have to manage about 2000 stocks vs 500, on many markets); they're also accumulating, which again adds a little cost (due to differing US rules on taxation of accumulating funds, accumulating funds are much rarer there, but they're well worth the few bps extra TER in most tax regimes in Europe).
Not sure why you're being downvoted, this is all pretty clear.

The storm may or may not come depending on how long your prediction time window is.

In any of these discussions about wages and fairness, I wonder if the people with strong opinions have ever tried to hire unskilled labor.
also I am fed up with this tendentious 'discussion' that only allows you to hear one side of the story and where everyone else is just flagged off. I should rather stay away from HN (anyway it is no longer what it used to be) Sayonara.
It matters when there One Dominant Vendor. In that case, when format errors and other small errors arise, the reaction depends. If it's the dominant vendor's software, then the user considers the other either normal or in their end. If the errors arise while using another software package, though, it's the fault of the "cut-rate, knock-off" software.
The landscape of Artificial Intelligence has transformed dramatically, now permeating nearly every sector. A staggering 75% of executives find AI exceeding their expectations, according to Bain & Company. This surge underscores the pivotal role of Machine Learning (ML) models in driving AI's productivity and impact.

ML model refinement starts from the coding stage, not just data collection. The iterative process of ML model development unfolds across several stages.

It begins with data collection and preprocessing, which are essential for laying a robust foundation. Subsequently, the right model is selected for initial training, which is crucial for shaping the model's blueprint. Evaluation and feedback loops follow, ensuring alignment with objectives and continuous enhancement.

Feature engineering refines the model's capabilities, iteratively improving its output. Hyperparameter tuning fine-tunes the model's performance, a vital step before real-world deployment. Continuous monitoring and feedback integration sustain the model's evolution, ensuring it stays relevant and effective.

Challenges such as data availability and quality pose significant hurdles. Historical data scarcity and format issues impede iterative development. Organizations must digitize processes and embrace continuous learning to overcome these obstacles.

In conclusion, the effectiveness of AI products hinges on meticulous ML model iteration. As machines and humans evolve, iterative refinement propels us towards a future limited only by our imagination. Platforms like MarkovML offer indispensable tools for ML model development, streamlining the iterative process and accelerating AI innovation.

In my head, a satire of a Brexit politician: "All those foreigners, coming here, taking our jobs; don't they know that's it's supposed to be us, going abroad, stealing their jobs?"
Brexit isn't really a part of the story, regardless of what the punditry may wish. Look at GBP/USD long term to see:

https://finance.yahoo.com/chart/GBPUSD%3DX?showOptin=1#eyJpb...

The big shock was 2008. Then things were stable for a few years but starting in 2014 the value of the currency went into a long period of decline. Brexit in 2016 spooked a bunch of traders who were terrified of the readily apparent insanity visible in the (Remainer) government - talks of massive emergency tax rises and so on clearly had an impact - but then once Cameron/Osborne were booted out and the massive recession the "experts" had promised failed to materialize, the currency regained its value vs the USD until by 2018 it was back at the same level it had been at the start of 2016. Then the currency got weaker with time until a recovery around COVID, then the decline set in again.

So as you can see Brexit had a temporary effect due to the, uh, "broken promises" about the costs of leaving made by the Remain campaign. But within 18 months that had been unwound.

The real story here is a macroeconomic one: the UK economy was permanently damaged by the (American triggered!) financial crisis and never really recovered in the same way the USA itself did. Growth stopped around that time, and it was then dragged down even further by Eurozone weakness starting around 2012-2014 era.

The 2010s were a lost decade for the UK economically. The 2020s will be no better given the way things are going politically. Brexit has little to do with it though, except in the sense that it would enable a hypothetical capitalist/libertarian party that doesn't currently exist to liberalize the economy to US standards and restart growth. There's no appetite to do that in the UK political mainstream at the moment.
I think the solution is to not use a filesystem that is broken in this way.
I brainstormed a text game-engine powered by an llm, but relying on a non-local llm was offputting. Local llms are getting more and more viable though. A general problem I was running into was that thinking in terms of LLM queries is a very new way of computation design and adapting takes a lot of effort. Then again, my central idea was a bit ambitious too: every game character would have a unique interpretation on what was happening.
