So like an intern/new hire asking what they think are basic questions but lead you to realize an edge case you missed?

Nintendo seems to go through these litigious cycles every once in a while. I wonder if this is them asserting their IP as part of a larger strategy to focus attention on an upcoming system launch?

Looks like his argument is that randomized and client to client based rules are better. To some extent I agree.

However, it's inconsistent and we have a government that is punitive, which is why I see that these KYC approaches are reactive to that. There's not punitive measures for violating privacy concerns and storing/profiting from this data.

In practice, to buy crypto, you have to give a disreputable private entity (crypto exchanges have a terrible history of not being scummy.. is cryptobase good? only time will tell) very sensitive documents.
People can do things altruistically - there doesn't always need to be a bitcoin-style monetary incentive. Lots of people run exit nodes because they believe in privacy and freedom of information.

That said, you're absolutely right about large entities being able to control a large number of nodes, which is why a great number of nodes are controlled by governments trying to do so and also prevent foreign adversaries from being able to.
And all networking configuration and everything else is transferred with close to zero effort?
Legally, it means exactly that - the government wasn't allowed to do X, but they said the magic word "emergency", and now they are allowed to do X as much as they want, until they decide they are done. Of course, this means they were always allowed to do X, it's just that the public will eat it more easily if instead of saying "the government can take your freedoms anytime" they'd say "the government can't take you freedom ever - except if there's a real dangerous emergency". Functionally, those are exactly the same, but the latter sounds much more "reasonable".
I think the defense of porn is motivated by the fact that they are porn addicts lol.
When immigrants are heading towards 20% of the population, that first generation effect is significant. And don’t assume it disappears in subsequent generations. It’s hard as an outsider to tell, because you’re not privy to people’s thoughts or private communications.

The second generation Asian Americans I know aren’t quite as hierarchy-focused as say my parents. But they’re also nothing like my wife’s Oregonian family that’s been in the US for hundreds of years. (Among whom having status is almost something to be embarrassed about.)
Dang the error is quite creepy tho =))
Because the DMCA is for them not us.
Very few of these public status pages are tied directly to the metrics. They get updated when an internal incident has been created, triaged, and a comms person has put together the status message to communicate.

I mean, think about it, would you want something like this to create a massive "all endpoints down" incident when you have a metrics pipeline issue? For a public company with shareholders?
So the barrier to nix is... nix? No, the language is not the problem. It is not a particularly difficult language at all. There are plenty of actual problems to address, but the language isn't the issue.
I only have the patience for roguelikes.

Sitting down and playing a long, open world, cinematic adventure is just not an efficient use of my time anymore. The only time I get to play videogames are brief stolen moments during my week. So I only play games that give me a satisfying "chew" for my time. Trying to come back after a couple of weeks to Red Dead Redemption 2 with only 45 minutes to spend... it's agony.

I also spend 8+ hours a day staring at screens. I don't relish staring at them for leisure. So my indulgence is to pull out a board game.
Gboard and Samsung Keyboard have built-in features to search for GIFs or do web searches, for example.

Who would have thought having cloud connected keyboards would be a bad thing, right?
Palm was incredible. Enyo, webOS, the list is a long one. It's hard to overstate Palm's effect on handhelds, how they successfully challenged Blackberry to the benefit of both companies, and the tragedy of its demise[1]. Jon Rubinstein, Palm's creator, is bitter about its fate to this day.

I hiked the entire Appalachian Trail with my Palm TX, dutifully logging my thoughts and ideas on the two thousand mile walk from Georgia (USA) to Maine, saving them to a tiny SSD, then beaming them all to a journal when I hit a wifi spot in a town library or somewhere.

I still think back on that thing, and the absolutely AWESOME folding keyboard I had for it (2 oz, smaller than a pack of cigarettes folded up, folded out into a rigid keyboard that had a tray for the Palm, really useful typing on your elbows on the floor of a tent). It was a full commodity computing environment: calculator, cached wikipedia, word processor, email, pdf maps/guidebooks/almanacs. Honestly, if you added Maps to that thing, I would still use it today, no question.

Palm was - once Elevation Partners sucked all of the cash from the place - hoovered into the giant value-destroying machine of HP, where it promptly died, as do all things that enter HP post-HPUX.

The best thing I ever did was get a phone number from another state. I have a Hawaii number from the couple years I lived there. Even better is because it’s such a transitory area, most of the friends I had in Hawaii had numbers from out of state. Because of that any time I see an 808 number, I know very confidently it’s a spam call.
This is a technically true story, but why don’t they report the Garry Mod has issued false DCMA notices too? It really seems like Engadget hates Nintendo.
I'd like to see more evidence. From the linked article, John Mueller, from Google, says they treat them the same, although he acknowledges it's a heated debate externally.

How does a company like Anduril come out of nowhere to scale so fast, get so much money, and so many contracts in a very entrenched field of government defense contracts? Yes, they're bringing modern industry experience to these things, but I don't see that as enough to break through all the barriers that are there. How have they done it?
Yep, on one of the products I built, I use this when a person subscribes to the paid tier. It's really nice, not too obtrusive, but it's fun! Plus, it only happens on that specific scenario, so it's not overdone.

Pipedrive CRM also does this when you close a deal, they even previously had a person shooting a hoop or something, that was nice. It's rewarding!

Namecheap, Vultr, BuyVm all operate in the U.S. and at times in the past (I don't know if they still do) have either accepted crypto or anonymous charge cards (available for cash at a convenience store), thus making it possible to get a dedicated server or VM totally anonymously. This new regulation would seem to prevent this.
Political speech in the US has the least restriction possible. It’s exempt from the laws around unsolicited calls, political ads can be complete fabrications without consequence (you might say, “but what about news coverage?” forgetting that in many ways, the most consequential elections are small local affairs where even if there is a local press, the press may not have the ability to fact check abuses or respond in a timely fashion—in my childhood hometown, an attorney in the next town over made an attempt to take over the library board by (a) getting the candidates that weren’t his delegates removed from the ballot and (2) doing door-to-door flyers the weekend before the election which included a number of completely fabricated charges against the current members of the library board. With the latter, because the local paper comes out weekly and on Wednesday, they were unable to cover this before the election.)

So, other than trying to respond to the texts with STOP, you’re mostly out of luck. I know with an iPhone and iMessage, it’s possible to block texts from junk callers, but that doesn’t help with the profusion of numbers nor does responding with STOP.
There were multiple sub-cultures warring against each other and especially against pop MTV back then.

there's gaming and then there's gaming. Simon tatham's puzzle games are a neatly packaged up bit of fun. and then there's Factorio.

as I got older though, I want to make an impact on the world, and video games, while fun, don't let me do that as much as contributing to an open source project or volunteering or some such. I expect I'll get back into them as I get older.
I am fairly certain Google never truly took that motto to heart to begin with.
I agree, but I have to admit that once we have to invoke mysterious one-off miracles and unknowable states of existence to explain something so radically basic like “free will” we have IMO gone off track.

This feels like a God of the gaps type argument and those give off a particular smell.

Pincket's Law
I think it's only Nintendo that'd be able to go after someone sending claims in their name.

It'd likely be hard to find whoever sent a false notice on general, since there's no identity or address verification needed to send one.
The main difference is that Merge pre-builds all integrations, with limited customization capabilities, while Nango gives you full control over the code of the integrations.
Why are we constraining it to Founding-era, when the document is meant to be a living document (hence amendments in the first place)?

That's why I drew attention to the confirmation bias portion of it.

Very intelligent people still buy into conspiracy theories, and its always the same: the conspiracy theory lies about certain things, so as to preserve the illusion of the truth in other things.

The lab leak conspiracy theory mainly appeals to the audience's desire that bad things be, in principle, preventable. Take that away, and people end up feeling like they have less control over their own safety, which is considerably more troubling than just the fear of some disease.

We should not try to understand any given conspiracy theory in the context of "what information are people getting wrong?", because (like I said previously), everyone, regardless of intelligence, will always be wrong about something. We should instead try to understand why the conspiracy theory is more emotionally satisfying than the truth.

I disagree. I worked at a 20 person company where this type of discussion would be acceptable. Granted, the fact that people could bring these topics up without risk, meant things rarely got to that point.

I left for family reasons, but it remains the best place I’ve worked. Its product was leading the field because they actually had open discussions about things and built what people cared about.
Andruil is a bunch of ex-Palantir folk.
My wife was at dinner with a bunch of other women the other night. Of a party of about 15, at least 12 of them had stories of their parents being scammed for a large amount of money. Even the scams that start online end up leveraging the phone system in some way. In total, the single table she was sitting at had lost over $10 million dollars to scammers - almost $1m per person. It's sickening.

The phone system is entirely broken. It comes down to economics- there's zero cost to make millions of calls, so your economic benefit formula is obvious- you can make millions of calls because one of them will pay you back mega-$$$. There is no accountability and no way to automatically filter out spam (as we do with email, although to be honest, spam filtering isn't great either). I don't know what to do other than to increase the cost to make phone calls in order to address the perverse incentives at work.

Edit: I’m curious about the downvotes. If you follow the links to the automated system that David built (a honeypot for robocallers) you see the top offenders are Medicare and end of life services. That jives with my own experience. So clearly they’re targeting the elderly and therefore the solution is - ask them to look for a little stir/shaken attestation checkmark before answering their phone?
I think that rule applies mainly to scamming and hacking attempts by shadowy, foreign-based criminal entities.

In this case it's probably a US company that has an interest in staying on the good side of the law.
And yet where police demonstrably flashbang your house, batter down your door, and it was the wrong house for their warrant...

... they have no liability or obligation - and will go to court to fight having to pay you for the damage they did.

Their "argument" is that liability is on the target of their warrant, which doesn't answer awkward questions like "what if the target is never convicted of a crime" and "the target didn't make you raid the wrong house..."
The Ryzen 2700x is the same CPU as the 1700X, just a 12nm die shrink yet it is supported. The TPM requirement is asinine and not necessary.
I'd say they haven't been very competitive with AMD in performance per watt/dollar in the ryzen era, specifically due to process advantage. (On CPU dies especially, with less advantage for AMDs I/O dies.) I'd agree they have done a good job advancing other aspects of their designs to close the gap, though.
In India users that had it installed could continue to use it. And downloading it in India is trivial. On iPhone it's as simple as changing your region, on Android you just need to install the APK (installer) - which TikTok makes conveniently available on their website. I learned this from a quick search of 'how to install TikTok in India' which is apparently quite the common search in India. [1] I tried to dig up some data on how many Indian TikTok users there are. Probably unsurprisingly, that's not available. It seems fairly safe to say it's going to be quite a hefty number though!

So it was a toothless ban. By contrast, US wanted to have their cake and eat it too - keep TikTok and gain complete control over it. And while I know basically nothing about Indian law I'm fairly certain they have a much better legal argument in the US as well. So I don't think the situations have much in common.

CATL unveils LFP battery with 4C ultra-fast charging, 370 miles in 10 min
Controversial point: if you run a Internet presence of any kind, this is like a property of land on which you run business. The property needs also a legal owner. For real businesses, this is normal. It is unregulated IT who does not understand this and is still in the wild West.

Obviously, modern data processing creates the rightful fear of surveillance. What we lack is a culture of privacy. In other countries if the state or anyone else wants to access the land registry or any other: good luck without a lawful reason.

How to Catch a "Thief"
I work at an international school and an incident has recently arisen. A disgruntled employee has downloaded the parent email list (thus the thievery) and is sending defamatory emails a few times a week based on meeting minutes and general gossip. The individual is switching emails each time (they are using protonmail and gmail accounts). I also suspect that they are using an AI language filter or some sort of program that alters writing style.

The suspect list has been narrowed down to a handful of admin.

My first inclination is to send different (juicy as it were) information to different people coming from a teacher unaware of the situation and claim that I accidentally used bcc instead of cc and apologize in an email sent to all the admin staff for "my poor use of tech", thus lessening the suspicion of misinformation. This would hopefully entice the perpetrator to share some identifying info in their next email.

What do you think is the best course of action?

I know this is weird, but there are a lot of people here who are smarter than me and I figured it was worth a shot.
Can you name some of those consequences?
i dont think so ... without reciprocal square root, you would need to issue a square root and a reciprocal instruction sequentially and trust your compiler to unroll, pipeline ir whatever. anyway, square root on an IEEE P754 FPU is going to use something like microcoded newton-raphson with a variable number of cycles to reach sufficient accuracy. BUT, the result of the two chained instructions will often be different to that of the unified instruction (like mac is different to multiply then add) so this MAY be a philsophical decision, or more likely someone could code LINPACK tighter
Really cool! I like that they have live demos to prove it out. Thanks for sharing

There are no incentives for running a Tor node except altruism and the perhaps nebulous claim that by doing so you will be making the network better.

There is nothing stopping a state actor controlling a large percentage of nodes thus increasing the likelihood that your anonymous communications are nothing of the sort.

I used to follow along ubuntu development pretty closely, being excited about each release. Now nearly 20 years on from the original release of Warty Warthog, they've really earned my trust with LTS releases in particular. I've never had an issue with a server running an LTS release that wasn't an issue with the provider, not the software.

Nowadays, I rarely even check the updates to them. When I spin up a server the latest LTS is just my default.
The Zionists conspired to take over Palestine since before they even set foot in the middle east. Your historical account is carefully crafted propaganda to make it seem like the Zionists didn't simply bully their way into Palestine, but that is exactly what they did and no amount of biased twisting of facts will ever be able to explain how the Palestinians who are the natives of that land, ended up landless and stateless, whereas the Zionists stemming from foreign European and Middle Eastern countries ended up with a fully recognized state.

Your forgot to mention the Zionist terrorism, the Zionist pogroms and massacres, the very biased western diplomats involved in splitting a land that was not theirs, and the fact that neither the Turks nor the Brits had any legitimacy over Palestine.

The Palestinians did nothing wrong, but they ended up the victim of a bunch of fanatical ethnonationalists who wanted to build a Jewish state on their land.
