Some of the Wi-Fi enabled SD cards you're mentioning (older models by now, but might still be available on eBay & stuff) can be rooted and you can get a shell. Example: https://gist.github.com/deckar01/6d9b76bdef21eaab0568 (I'm sure there are more models that are vulnerable to similar attacks)

One thing I would suggest keeping in mind with any kind of interference (regardless of how stable it is and how well it adheres to the SD spec & maintains data integrity) is that if something happens to/with the machinery this controller is handling, your modification can easily be blamed by the vendor, even if your modification isn't actually at fault and it's the vendor's shitty software that's at fault. The risk is double considering it doesn't even seem to be able to manage not corrupting a standard SD card.
curl should probably scream when it detects piping unencrypted wan (not local ips) connections to shell, sort of like what openssh does when a host’s fingerprint changes
Cool, so to summarize the fine:

The "few parts in 1E15" claim is applicable only to the absolute value of the frequency of the 1S-2S transition, which is 1 233 030 706 593 514 Hz.

That absolute frequency is computed from the ratio between an optical frequency and the 9 GHz frequency of a cesium clock, which is affected by large uncertainties due to the need for bridging the gap between optical frequencies and microwave frequencies.

The frequency ratios between distinct lines of the hydrogen atom spectrum or between lines of the hydrogen atom spectrum and lines in the optical spectra of other atoms or ions can be known with uncertainties in parts per 1E18, one thousand times better.

When comparing a simulation with the experiment, the simulation must be able to match those quantities that can be measured with the lowest uncertainty, so the simulated values must also have uncertainties of at most parts per 1E18, or better per 1E19.

This requires more bits than provided by FP64. The extended precision of Intel 8087 would barely be enough to express the final results, but it would not be enough for the intermediate computations, so one really needs quadruple precision computations or double-double-precision computations, which are faster where only FP64 hardware exists.

I have not attempted to compute the QED corrections myself, so I cannot be certain how difficult that really is.

Nevertheless, the section VII from this CODATA paper and also the previous editions of the CODATA publications, some of which had been more detailed, are not consistent with what you say i.e. with them being easy to compute.

For each correction there is a long history of cited research papers that would need to be found and read to determine how exactly they have been computed. For many of them there is a history of refinements in their computations and of discrepancies between the values computed by different teams, discrepancies that have been some times resolved by later more accurate computations, but also some where the right value was not yet known at the date of this publication.

If the computations where so easy that anyone could do them with pen and paper there would have been no need for several years to pass in some cases until the validation of the correct computation and for a very slow improvement in the accuracy of the computed values in other cases.
There is no "learning" Emacs in a traditional sense, as there is no linear, structured, or categorized methodology. Emacs is vast, learning it is similar to learning a human language. Most of the time when people ask how to approach Emacs, it is like asking "how do I learn to move and live in Brazil," to which the appropriate suggestion would probably be "hmm, maybe start by listening to Portuguese?"

Imagine if there were a browser or a graphics editor where you could change any aspect of it, not just the UI - the look and feel of the elements, but the entire behavior of each element. Imagine if you could "screenshot" the current workspace in this "hacky, recursive Photoshop," then erase, repaint, and resize the panels, menus, buttons, etc., apply it, and then suddenly the whole UI transforms. Emacs feels like that, you can change just about anything - how it looks, how it behaves, and even how it listens and speaks. But to get there, you need to know Emacs Lisp.

So, my suggestion to understand Emacs is to learn Emacs Lisp. If you have never used any Lisps before - Clojure, CL, Fennel, or Scheme, there are two fundamental things you need to understand first. This is vital because without these, it's almost guaranteed to get frustrated. First, you need to learn to love the parenthesis, embrace the structure, and learn structural editing. Second, you need to understand the REPL-driven way of writing Lisp programs. Other languages have REPLs, but Lisp REPLs are different. Grasping the way to evaluate any expression at the point is essential.

After that, I suggest starting to write Emacs Lisp. Pick a problem to solve and try to figure out how to do it in Elisp. Start with something small, maybe not even very practical, like uppercasing every second letter in a paragraph. Eventually, you will learn how to use built-in help, debugger, and profiler and maybe even write your own Elisp packages.

The value of learning Emacs Lisp is that it forces you to develop a "hacktistic" mindset, where you are certain that any aspect of your computer workflow - any program, any interaction can be changed. You will no longer have to agree to "the status quo." Instead of helplessly yelling at your computer and hitting the screen when things don't work as expected, you will gain insight into knowing why things don't work. This wisdom might not alleviate the pain, but it will give you the insight.

Don't try to learn how to stay afloat on the surface; learn how to swim deep in the ocean - it will open a world of possibilities.
IIRC non-canard aircraft can have this happen when the stall causes the plane to fall at an angle where the wake turbulence of the wings covers the elevators.
Cycle counting was key on the Spectrum - for obvious things like the tape load routines but also for advanced techniques like the ‘Rainbow processor’ - updating the attribute bytes (those responsible for the infamous color clash) as each scan line progressed you could get different colors on each scan line.

IMO, the right way is for GitHub to allow for JWT/OIDC federation, ideally allowing custom public keys to be uploaded, so I can issue my own tokens from a secure crypto source. With the GitHub app, you're still copying/pasting long lived tokens during the setup phase.

Sorry about that other poster, I appreciate your answer to my question. Thinking it's a lot for an individual household to have to identify and do this much paperwork for childcare is an entirely reasonable response. As is doing taxes in the US in general... it can be both obnoxiously overboard and also be well intended.

I did not read anything in your post that suggested you resented the babysitter or having to pay money to do it properly.

I read the exact opposite, that more people would if the process were not so burdensom of people who obviously have a child and so presumably not a ton of time for paperwork.

After all, you did it properly... what's to get angry about other than the topic of the original article, that tax paperwork is overboard?
I guess it depends on what you mean by “made”
The technology is there, but Linux desktop lags behind in making use of it.

ChromeOS and android take something like Gentoo Linux, enforce SeLinux and sandbox the applications. In Linux, there is SeLinux and AppArmor but few apps have profiles and properly contained by default.
Robert Frost's, often misinterpreted [0], “The Road Not Taken” also comes to mind here.

"In many ways, the poem becomes about how—through retroactive narrative—the poet turns something as irrational as an “impulse” into a triumphant, intentional decision. Decisions are nobler than whims, and this reframing is comforting, too, for the way it suggests that a life unfolds through conscious design. However, as the poem reveals, that design arises out of constructed narratives, not dramatic actions."

Based on the discussion that we've had I'll assume that you don't have any actual criticisms regarding the value-propositions of the BRICS digital currency as a cryptocurrency on a public blockchain.

Arguments in the form of "I dislike X, therefore everything associated with X is bad" are not very useful. I'll refrain from answering to any follow-ups, unless they pertain to the topic of the article.

I will however, be glad to re-engage on queries related to the BRICS digital currency as a cryptocurrency on a public blockchain.

> Razer DeathAdder V2

Story time.

Around 2-3 years ago I was gifted Razer headphones. They were amazing, so I started reading about Razer. I found comments about people buying Razer products and those products breaking after 6-12 months.

Didn't pay that much attention to them.

After like half a year later, they broke. The... uh... [quickly searches how headphone parts are called] the part where the headband joins with the ear cup, it snapped.

Maybe I was just unlucky. But since then I've avoided anything from Razer just in case.
This looks like a great and very polished project! Leveraging python in soeadsheets is a great idea - probably why excel are doing it already, but it's nice to see an implantation that's so clear and easy to use.

It's hardly a criticism of pysheets specifically, but I wish spreadsheets were more restrictive (I.e. force sheets into a table format) so that people could build out spreadsheets in an org without creating an unholy mess that needs to be picked apart and reversed engineered in something that isn't a spreadsheet.
If that was the case how did they not realize this until a few weeks before the whole process was completed?

I have a friend with panic disorder. It took me almost ten years to convince her that she was having a vagus nerve reaction (she is now finally incorporating this into her life).

She would eat certain foods and have a panic attack more than a third of the time. Those are the sorts of patterns I notice that other people dismiss (or in this case deny)

The problem with “disorders” like ADHD that affect up to 10% of the population is that it’s really easy to find enough people with some other disorder to convince yourself that certain symptoms apply to a large part of the demographic. I have no doubt that there are ADHD people who are activated by vagus nerve activation (eg, irregular heartbeat or intestinal distress) but I doubt very much that it’s universal.
It references Box2D as the physics engine, but it seems to be a JavaScript port of Box2D. I'm unfamiliar with the JavaScript ports, but if it is a copy of one of the existing ports, the port should be referenced instead.

That's clutching at straws tbh. I have a "native" google docs spreadsheet that has atm 4 sheets, all at 50 lines or less. No fancy formulas except sums. It just tracks hours for billing.

It uses 500 Mb of ram fresh, and in a couple weeks it goes up to 1.5 to 2 Gb and I have to kill the tab and reopen it.

This is the modern javascript world...
There are many different ways to solve problems. Having tunnel vision will exclude most of them. Critical thought has its place in any field, but many scientists and engineers will hide behind so called analytical thought when in reality, the ideas are more biased than they'd like to admit.
The author of PySheets here: The app is written entirely in Python, running on PyScript, using PyScript-LTK, with two Python VMs, MicroPython and PyOdide. Web server is minimal logic, running on gunicorn on DigitalOcean. Storage is on Firestore. The App can be easily packaged up as a standalone, "on-prem" app, but I have not given that too much priority for now. Would love to hear what you all thing of writing web apps in the browser in Python.
Notarization does do things against attackers, yes.

Firstly, stolen CCs tend to get reported especially if you make a big purchase. If you use a stolen CC to buy a developer certificate then it's going to get revoked the moment the real owner notices, and then your apps will be killed remotely by Apple before they've even been detected as malicious.

Still, the big win of notarization is that Apple can track down variants of your malware once it's identified and take them all out simultaneously. They keep copies of every program running on a Mac, so they can do clustering analysis server side. On Windows there's no equivalent of notarization, but the same task is necessary because otherwise malware authors can just spin endless minor variants that escape hash based detection, so virus scanners have to try and heuristically identify variants client side. This is not only a horrific resource burn but also requires the signatures to be pushed out to the clients where malware authors can observe them and immediately figure out how they're being spotted. Notarization is a far more effective approach. It's like the shift from Thunderbird doing spam filtering all on its own using hard-coded rules, to Gmail style server side spam filtering.

> All of these requirements are just a way to lock down access to the walled garden

I've been hearing this for over a decade now. In the beginning I believed it, but it's been a long time and Apple have never made macOS a walled garden like iOS is. There's no sign they're going to do it either. After all, at least some people have to be able to write new apps!

What observable positive/negative effects do you have since adding it?
Yes, indeed! I would also expand on how the implementation of this on a public blockchain, expands the "trust free" feature to the general public, as derivatives can be easily created on a smart contract based blockchain.
They do. But their income includes revenue from taxation. Suppose you own a London business. You pay taxes to the local government. In London, these taxes include money for TfL. After all, you chose to put the business in London, a city with a large public transport network, if you didn't like that you could have put your business in, say, Slough, and avoided this cost.

Passenger revenue is TfL's largest source of income by some distance, but it's nowhere close to enough to pay for the entire network, let alone the necessary capital investments to grow and change with the city. And of course if prices went up, ridership would fall, and transport would be diverted to the over-stretched and polluting private transport options which the city does not want.
Which doesn't mean parent is wrong. You can do any work on non-ideal equipment and be happy with it for various reasons.

When I saw what one of my ex was using (bio chemist growing various stuff and testing treatments to rare sickle cell anemia that pharma didn't care about due to low patient count), it was very subpar and inefficient but she was happy with it and got results nevertheless eventually. Some of her work I could make more efficient by 10x, some by 50x maybe, but ie she as hardcore unix person just plainly refused to use MS Excel and all its statistics power, to pick a random example (there were quite a few).

Not saying this is your case of course, but oh boy do small screens, limited browsers, limited power and storage speed etc. do have negative effect on work itself, mental flow, staying focused etc. There is a reason not only we IT guys want powerful machines and massive screens, it ain't just chasing shiny higher numbers.
It's 1970s tech. Even if they had given them unique codes, they had no way of catching duplicates. The magnetic stripe has a very limited amount of storage space and, as far as I know, it's all used for other necessary information.

It also explains why the rail operators are moving to QR codes on paper tickets, which are in every respect worse. (They are absurdly large tickets and take much longer to scan at the barrier, creating queues.)

Could be. There's a reason we don't see aliens in the sky.

A the same time the "miracle" of collective action that you want to get rid of — because everything corporations do wrong is also done by other kinds of co-operations — isn't really just corporations, it's everything that makes us primates.

That's why you need to be more precise than "just ban them all", why the simple and obvious solution is wrong.
I'm not sure if you're expressing what you think you are. They outlined a group by nature of the problem (so the people in question have something to improve, tautalogically), so it's not like they are painting with an overly broad brush, unless you think people that accomplished something hard and then automatically assume they have faculty in all topics is not a group in need of examining their assumptions more closely?
I am a loner/socially awkward and used to run a bit before 2020.
Then in 2020, since we were confined I used to run close to my house. I used to see a bunch of folks regularly running but was apprehensive about approaching them. One day one of them said Hi and now I am thankful and happy to be part of that group.
There are still periods when I like to run alone and avoid the group but they welcome me whenever I am ready. I am a lot happier since joining this group.
More people have joined this group in last two and a half years and am good friends with some of them.
I am not sure but I think the group has helped some of them with their loneliness like me.
There is some sense of satisfaction when you improve your timing but a bigger source of satisfaction is when you are helping others with their running or just spending time with them.
I was lucky to be found by the group and sometimes I wish we can find more people who would be interested even a little bit but are apprehensive like I was/am.
I think this is quite terrible advice because our (Western) culture is already way too biased towards quarter and mid-life crises, ageism and fatalism when there is objectively little reason to panic.

One conversation I had that had extreme influence on me was working with an old software developer from China who had seen the cultural revolution as a kid, had family sent to farm labor, his parents had their company taken from him, he lost his own companies twice during reforms of the 80s and 90s and had his life turned over like half a dozen times in ways that where I grew up nobody had ever experienced once. He had to completely start from scratch when he was in his early 50s.

So when someone aged 28 at work was having a mental breakdown over their wrong phd specialization the guy always just laughed and said, you're younger than 45, you can start over, what's the problem?

The article is right that life is path dependent, in the sense that if you went to war and lost both arms you have a problem, but no, what obscure degree choice you made has not in any serious way taken real agency away. That is just our bizarre and neurotic culture. At least for most people their own perception of their history weighs them down significantly more than what is in reality genuinely the case.
As a lay person, and not a lawyer, I'm not sure how this is not considered large scale fraudulent misrepresentation.

It seems like the fines are extremely light, and there is no real accountability. In the very least, they should be required to offer refunds to all people who bought those products.
