Not that strange. Adult-onset T1D is just as common as Juvenile-onset; it just happens to often get misdiagnosed as T2D.

Both T1D and RA are autoimmune, so it's not surprising they showed up around the same time. He was probably infected with a virus a few years earlier which caused the production of auto-antibodies; Epstein-Barr and CMV are famous for this, and it takes a few years for enough damage to take place that symptoms show up. (Symptomatic T1D starts at around 90% beta cell loss.)
Searching buses and passenger cars is quite common in Belgium as well, "probable cause" is enough, and we all know how easy it is to find probable cause.

It is kind of obvious, isn't it? But I've yet to see any hard questions asked in main stream media about the process of simultaneous global rollout of "content updates".

But in a recent update of https://www.crowdstrike.com/falcon-content-update-remediatio... they have a long explanation of of things are supposed to work, with a lot of nice words (sounds almost AI-written...) and quite a few implications that it's really the customers fault who have not configured their systems to for example stay one version behind the latest and still a very short explanation of what went wrong.

But... Lo and behold, what are CrowdStrike going to do to avoid this happening in the future?

"Implement a staggered deployment strategy for Rapid Response Content in which updates are gradually deployed to larger portions of the sensor base, starting with a canary deployment." About time...

My main point, and the reason for the title, is that this has not been the major takeaway in main stream media analyses. Of course not "everyone" has missed this, but pretty much all media articles about the incident do appear to miss this.

Interesting. I'm sure I've experienced this effect, but I hadn't noticed that it happens to a greater degree than normal; even without LSD, I've always had a problem with overheating: I have a 12,000 BTU air conditioner pointed directly at me at all times, but still somehow manage to sometimes overheat, usually because the thing automatically turns itself off around 61°F. I had modified my last unit to ignore the temperature completely, but as of yet I can't seem to locate the thermistor in this one. (I found at least one of them, but it's somehow the wrong one. Why are there multiple?!)

With that said, it would indeed be a problem for you not to be able to think well enough to perform basic self-care. At the very least, LSD is dehydrating as the body attempts to filter it out as urine, so you'd need to get that out and then drink water (or gatorade or something hydrating). I'm sure dehydration would contribute at least partially to the additional body heat.

Anyway, you totally don't need LSD to suffer heat stroke in the summer. All I'd need to do is walk outside and stand there for a while.

With that said, it's not exactly like generating additional body heat necessarily kills you as long as you can keep yourself cool somehow. Even if you can't, I wouldn't consider the LSD to have been the source of the death, just the overheating, which is a general failure regardless of how the overheating happened (e.g. panic attack, overexertion, etc.).

I'm writing something similar, but it's based on its own scripting language. The idea of transpiling C sounds appealing but impractical: how do they plan to compile, say, things using mmap, setjmp, pthreads, ...? It would be better to clearly promise only a restricted subset of C.

>I think a Mad Max style post apocalypse type situation wouldn't come about until maybe 30 years after a full nuclear war. As disease and civilization continue to deteriorate over time eventually I can see much of the word getting to that state.

This sounds exactly like Mad Max. If you remember, in the very first "Mad Max" movie, civilization was not completely gone yet: Max was a policeman, but civilization was in tatters and murderous biker gangs ran wild. The later movies showed civilization being completely gone.
The had no issues unnecessarily dying entirely for Stalin’s political ambitions?

One might say that being one of the aggressors who started the war and by playing a massive part in the successful German invasion of France (it’s hard to imagine Germany could have pulled that off without massive Soviet material support, they basically had no oil after all..) that the Soviets had a moral obligation to right some of those wrongs.

> Russian lives are worthless anyway

That was a fact (in relative terms) mainly established by the Soviets. They indeed considered the lives of their citizen to be worth very little (compared to the allies).

> What did they expect?

That he’d prioritize the defeat of Germany and the liberation of Poland over them. Of course extremely naive…

I grew up under soviet occupation - only ever saw pizza on TV in old B/W movies (censorship would not let new movies thru). Supposedly there were pizza serving bars since seventies located in Baltic vacation resorts. Everything changed after 1989. Entrepreneurs flooded Poland with new small businesses, pizza parlors among them. Then following 1992 McD entry Pizza Hut showed up in 1993 beginning the era of phone pizza delivery.

> Your argument here appears to literally be that Russia invades countries randomly. Not just without provocation

No, not randomly! There's has been a plan in motion since well before 2014 to reinstate the former Soviet Union. Putin has repeatedly said that this is his "dream". These countries aren't picked at random, they're all former members of the USSR.

Look at it this way: Belarus is a puppet state without border controls, a part of the new Russian empire all but officially. Ukraine very nearly fell within days during 2022. If it had, the Russians would have kept right on rolling through Transnistria and into Moldova. Kazakhstan or one of the smaller -stans would be next, and so on, until the former USSR was reformed.

> Not just without provocation.

Countries can be invaded even if they didn't "provoke" it.

I want you to pause for a second here and think about what you just said.

Are you the type of person to believe that everyone that gets punched in the face "provoked" it somehow? Or every woman that got raped was responsible by "provoking" the rapist?

I ask you to ask yourself these questions because there are people that think that YES, every woman that got raped was at least partly responsible for it.

Are you that person?

If not, why does the same logic not apply to Ukraine?

Must they have "provoked" Russia?

And if they did provoke them somehow, was Russia justified in killing hundreds of thousands of people in response?

What... exactly... was the thing that Ukraine did that justifies 200K dead, 500K+ wounded, millions displaced, etc. Please be specific, outlining how the provocation is somehow a worse outcome for Russia than the dead and wounded they have caused.

Just to reiterate: before you go off on a tangent, please very specifically explain how Ukraine joining NATO has a "greater material impact" on Russia than hundreds of thousands dead and wounded.

By specific, I mean: "If Russia hadn't invaded, they would have lost N million people to X because Ukraine would have done Y, and the evidence for this is Z." Make sure 'N' is > 200K and the source of the information predates 2022.

> In the 90s it decided it "wanted" to give Ukraine independence [0] and through the 90s and 00s decided that it was happy to have Ukraine as an independent state.

At no point was Russia happy about the USSR member states leaving, and Putin has repeatedly stated that this is the "greatest geopolitical disaster of the last century".

You're arguing against the core motivation stated by Putin himself repeatedly in personal interviews.

The Vue frontend is indeed more complex than the Rails backend, and in my experience Vue is much simpler than React. My customer organized the Rails app with models, controllers, api/v1/controllers, jobs, services (naming only the most important stuff). It's not bad to work with.

How do you expect to do that, without following the money?

If someone shows up with a suitcase full of money, it's extremely unlikely that they earned this money in a legal way and paid taxes.

Same thing with crypto. Theoretically it's possible that people use it for legal means, in practice 99% of people do not.
What you're pointing at is mostly irrelevant - the massive coal / lignite plants are obviously filtering the exhaust through filters according to EU levels. A family member works in the field.

The actual air pollution issue stems from small heaters used in houses that haven't been upgraded yet (or people using them improperly / burning trash) - but there's plenty of EU funding going towards replacing them. Many of the remaining users are unfortunately living in poverty and can't even afford the remaining 20-30% of the price + heating afterwards can absolutely become more expensive.
Since I experimented with something similar in the past to mimick multidimensional arrays: depending on the implementation this can absolutely _kill_ performance. IIRC, Dash does a linear lookup of variable names, so when you create tons of variables each lookup starts taking longer and longer.

But that also adds to the same effect! Their moral is to stay on the boardwalk and don’t stray off from it. Their morale is to look out for your kids and pets that they do the same. Which equates boardwalks with safety. Which, as an approximation is kinda true. But then something like this happens which undermines the assumptions under that approximation and if you are still using it as a heuristics you can be in trouble.

Maybe? But also, all the yellowstones hydrothermal features look like the gods have cursed the land. If you were just galavanting through the forest and you come up seeing that without any prior knowledge or park rangers to assure you you would say “oh, hell no” and you would turn around. The park cultivates a sense of safety otherwise it wouldn’t be a park.

Well, you don't want a fancy anti-virus update to rip through the global population of customers, effectively killing 8.5 million systems (according to an estimate by Microsoft) either in the space of approximately 78 minutes, right? What possible malware threat warrants that risk? And in this case, according to CrowdStrike, it was "to detect novel attack techniques that abuse Named Pipes". That doesn't really sound like such an urgent situation.

This is the problem with the war on drugs and any sort of drug control or prohibition.

Synthetic drugs came about because they fell outside legislation designed to control the different classes of drugs.

The police could not prosecute because there was no law to cover synthetic drugs in the early days.

I saw the slow increase in the damage caused by synthetic drugs as I worked in Substance misuse as a methadome dispenser. Rather than woking predominantly with heroin addiction, clients were presenting more and more with synthetic substance addictions.

For me I would like to see all drugs legalised so that the consumer has a safe way to use drugs of their choice.

I used to smoke hash in the 80's from as far away places as Pakistan, Afganistan, lebanon and morocco.

Now it is all genetically modified skunk which is 10 times stronger than the proper hash I used to smoke.
You can't compare OAuth with SAML. OAuth is authorization and comes only ever after authentication, which is OIDC.

But to respond to your critic: It is good that apps let you know that you are IN FACT not merely logging into something, but grant that app access to your Google Drive. This is a very important information! Imagine your mom signs into ClashOfClangs (a malicious clone) and the IdP would in fact NOT tell your mom that the app will have access to all her files because it may be confusing
Humans are very good at pretending we are more than just biological machines acting according to genetically imposed network structure refined by lifetime history of training inputs.
That is indeed necessary.

But it seems to me that putting the interpreter in a place in the OS where it can cause a system crash with the be the behavior that it's allowed to do is a fundamental design choice that is not at all addressed by fuzzing.

If you obtain open source licensed software you can pass it on legally (and freely). With some licenses you also have to provide the source code.
Last time I had to do something similar (for TCP reassembly) I simply used a sorted array.

I didn't think it though fully, but did you consider using a bit set only storing gap/non-gap transitions and vice versa then compressing it in a rank-select data structure? The even-odd result of a rank query will tell you if you are in a gap or not. It should also be possible to use select to find the closest hole.

The problem is that AFAIK rank-select structures cannot be modified, so you will need to regenerate it from scratch at every update. That (or an hybrid scheme) will work only if updates are rare enough.
I am in agreement. However, I do believe that a large portion of the community here is also missing a key point: Facebook was more open five years ago with their AI research than they are today. I suspect this perspective is because of the massive influx of people into AI around the time of the ChatGPT release. From their point of view, Facebook's move (although dishonestly labelled as something it is not) is a step in the right direction relative to "Open"AI and others. While for us that have been around for longer, openness "peaked" around 2018 and has been in steady decline ever since. If you see the wall of text I linked in my first comment in this chain, there is a longer description of this historical perspective.

It should also be noted (again) that the value of the terms open science and open source comes from the sacrifices and efforts of numerous academic, commercial, personal, etc. actors over several decades. They "paid" by sticking to the principles of these movements and Facebook is now cashing in on their efforts; solely for their own benefit. Not even Microsoft back in 2001 in the age of "fear uncertainty and doubt" were so dishonest as to label the source-available portions of their Shared Source Initiative as something it was not. Facebook has been called out again and again since the release of LLaMA 1 (which in its paper appropriated the term "open") and have shown no willingness to reconsider their open science and open source misuse. At this point, I can no longer give them the benefit of the doubt. The best defence I have heard is that they seek to "define open in the 'age of AI'", but if that was the case, where is their consensus building efforts akin to what we have seen numerous academics and OSI carry out? No, sadly the only logical conclusion is that it is cynical marketing on their part, both from their academics and business people.

[1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_Source_Initiative

In short. I think the correct response to Facebook is: "Thank you for the weights, we appreciate it. However, please stop calling your actions and releases something they clearly are not."

Airlines is bad, but I am more concerned about all the hospitals that shut down entirely or turned away critical surgeries that they suddenly deemed “elective”. Even big prominent hospitals like Mass General! It’s utterly ridiculous but also just a massive risk to public safety and national security that something like this can happen. None of these critical pieces of our society have any real business continuity plan, and it means nothing to them to inconvenience citizens, even if that inconvenience is actually going to result in death.
I'm currently reading this in dark mode.
But games like Quake are not "open source". They have been open-sourced, specifically the executable parts were, without the assets. This is usually spelled out clearly as the process happen.

In terms of functional role, if we're to compare the models to open-sourced games, then all that's been open-sourced is the trivial[0] bit of code that does the inference.

Maybe a more adequate comparison would be a SoC running a Linux kernel with a big NVidia or Qualcomm binary blob in the middle of it? Sure, the Linux kernel is open source, but we wouldn't call the SoC "open source", because all that makes it what it is (software-side) is hidden in a proprietary binary.

Nothing they're doing is bad, and sometimes we benefit when large companies interests align with our own. All the spiel about believing in open systems because of being prevented from making their best products by Apple is a bit much considering we're talking about Facebook which is hardly an 'open platform', and the main thing Apple blocked them on was profiling their users to target ads.

Regarding the rosary, I would rather guess Warsaw being the seat of government attracts lots of fringe types who come there to protest. I've last been living there in 2019 and I remember that the political climate was already heating up back then, with religious groups protesting in various places spontaneously - groups with loudspeakers at entrances to public transit, trucks driving around blasting anti-gay slogans all day, random marches of people in knight gowns carrying that certain picture of Jesus in a lavish crown that's a dogwhistle among certain ultra-religious groups - I've seen all of that, and still I would consider Warsaw to be overwhelmingly liberal in comaprison to the rest of the country.

One exception is the city's football team of course - but football in this country is synonymous with ultra-nationalism.

I lived & worked for 5 years in Prague before moving en Suisse. Integrated pretty well, had local girlfriends, visited their families regularly over weekends etc. No expat buble by any means, which is not what you want to rely on for permanent living anyway. Its one of the better places of the bunch for sure. But also ridiculously expensive housing, you'll never own a house in reasonable distance if you start cca now, even apartments can be tricky.

Still, what I wrote is valid for that too, no reason for me to return there from where I am now. As semi-local I could see through the surface and see issues I mention, and they are there (plus a typical Prague thing - kids starting with meth at 10-11 since its very accessible and weed even earlier, very popular with adequate consequences). They may be negligible /invisible to many others, not pushing my opinion but I stand by it, and in past 15 years nothing happened to change it, in contrary.
