Likely because NPR has yet to tread on one of their beliefs with biased reporting. It will happen eventually, the rate at which it's happening is accelerating, and when they realize it happens they'll feel the same outage we all did our first time. The umbrage, the "you were supposed to be unbiased" cry

I grew up on NPR. It was always on in the background. On the way to and from daycare, in the car on Sunday mornings on the way to the uu church, playing out of a small boom box on the back porch, or winding up the miles of a long road trip. Prairie Home Companion, Car Talk, Schickelie mix, etc, all were the background music to my childhood. When I entered adult life, I tried to continue listening, but leading to, during, and after the 2016 election, the biases became too base, too visible to ignore

Show us some stories, oh, the Rotherham grooming scandal, for instance, before it became a national story.

Here's one afterward:

> Police officers in Rotherham were not equipped to deal with the widespread child sex abuse that plagued the town for more than 15 years, according to a new report.

"not equipped to deal with" ordinary heinous crimes? I thought that was what police were supposed to do.
Hah, that is much fewer than I would have expected.

Too bad you can't do the same with phone numbers.

Doesn't DO charge $0.01/GB for egress overage? That's $150, not $15k. (Although Hetzner or something would've been even less.)
I completely agree. Tipping before services are even rendered drives me up a wall. Tipping in general is just disgusting, it's exploitative (of almost everyone) and is normally just a way for a business to pay someone less and guilt the customer into making up the difference. I tip because I feel compelled to lest I suffer the consequences of not going along with this charade but I'd love for tipping to go away.
I did this in Plex using DizqueTV. It was a blast to set up, schedule, and insert a selection of toy ads from the era to make it feel real.

Of course, I only watched it once or twice before I realised I am not capable of sitting through 6 hours of cartoons any more. The sugary cereal made me feel sick, too.

Strongly recommend.

Markdown is an intermediate format between a writer and rendered HTML. It is easier to read, write and edit as a writer (or someone reviewing someone else’s writing intended for the web) before generating and serving HTML. It’s not a superset, it’s not a subset, and it’s not HTML, although you can include HTML tags within a Markdown document to include things Markdown does not provide coverage for.

Which is to say there isn’t any such thing as “source Markdown” and “rendered Markdown”. Markdown is the source, HTML is the output, although you can make your own parser output to whatever you want.
They don't, although their overage rates are pretty reasonable compared to the big clouds at 1 cent per gig. It's hard to beat Hetzners 0.1 cents per gig, though.

I'd rather pay pennies for bandwidth than rely on "unmetered" bandwidth which tends to suddenly stop being unmetered if you use it too much.
I cannot imagine paying £86 for any book tbh. That seems crazy high.
Neither of your comparisons is true, as I've detailed elsewhere in this thread.
I think that a better strategy is to make the work that requires a clearance as "small" as possible. Consider two contractors:

Contractor A does everything in a closed area. All software is written, built, and tested on classified information systems. In this situation, it is impractical to move anything out, regardless if the software is actually classified. It's easy to move things back and forth between the developer's machines and the (necessarily) classified test/production system, but now you have the problem from TFA: you can only hire cleared employees or you eat the cost of them doing nothing useful for ~1 year.

Contractor B has arranged things so that the work that has to be done in a closed area is only on the specific information that _must_ be classified as described in the security classification guide for that program. Depending on the program this could be a small software library or even a configuration file. Interns and first-year employees can work on the majority of the system with dummy/stub libraries and fake data, then hand their work over to cleared employees for further testing in the closed area (if that is even necessary for the work at hand). It is not very hard to move software from an unclassified to a classified area. It is harder to move test results from a classified to an unclassified area. A description of what happened when an unclassified piece of software runs in a classified environment _can_ be sanitized and still leave all information necessary to continue work outside. Aside from the situation described in TFA, this also reduces the "it is miserable working in the SCIF" retention problem.

It requires work to arrange things in this way, but not much more work if the software is written using best practices. Maybe this strategy only applies to software development. There are other professions out there I've heard. :)
That's a good idea. I probably could've put a CDN in front of this and rate limited there while keeping things public. That might've been faster than using Ruby to be honest. The downside was that our API already shared the non-CDN URLs, so that would leave the problem open for anyone who already had that data.
> something tells me they're not going to understand Calculus no matter what lens you view it through.

From my experience as a tutor, you are quite wrong in coming to that conclusion. Most people conflate mass and weight all the time, and have a fuzzy understanding of acceleration. It's not because they're thick in the head and incapable, but because they don't care. That doesn't mean they don't care about other applications where math can help.

And standard calculus textbooks go beyond what you are describing. All the ones I encountered would have the integral of force with displacement to get work (which confuses people when they hear it's the same as "energy").

> This seems absurd.

The truth often does seem so.
I have an NVME device that very rarely literally (but figuratively) falls off the PCI port and disappears [0]. It is one of several Physical Volumes (PV) in a Logical Volume Management (LVM) Volume Group (VG) that backs several RAID-1 mirror Logical Volumes (LV).

When it drops off file-systems writes to the LVs are blocked and reads can also fail but the system survives sufficiently to do a controlled power off/on that recovers it.

In some cases the LVs pair up a spinning disk with the NVME but due to how I've configured the LV the spinner is read-mostly and the NVME is write-mostly (RAID member syncing is delayed and in background). There isn't too much noticeable latency except for things like `git log -Sneedle` - and worth it for the resilience.

[0] first time it happened it was spiders that had taken up residence around the M2 header and CPU (nice and warm!) and causing dust trails allowing current leakage between contacts (yes, I did do microscopic examination because I could not identify any other cause) that a simple blast with the air-compressor resolved. Later incidents turn out to be physical stress due to extreme thermal expansion and contraction as best as I can tell - ambient air temperature can fluctuate from 14C to 40C and back over 18 hours. Re-seating the M2 adapter fixes it for a a few months before it starts again! All NVME SMART self-tests pass; the failure is of the link not the storage - effectively being removed from the PCIe port. Firmware was at one stage suspected, although it had been fine for a couple of years on the same version, but updates haven't changed it in any way. ASPM is disabled.
Security clearances should take a long time because the risk of information being leaked is so high. Not sure I'm aligned here with Palantir or Steve Blank that the process needs to be sped up. Sounds like a recipe for disaster given all of the leaks we've seen over the past decade or more.

> I can try. Have you ever played competitive sports against a kid? You start to feel bad after a while. Winning comes easy, but you're worried that the kid might hurt themselves in over-exertion. In truth, the kid literally cannot make a decision that will beat you. You're the best. You know this. It's not fair.

If online gaming is any indication, what you are describing is largely not the way the most vocal people feel. It's more generally, "let's actively hunt down little kids to ruthlessly defeat and record it while mocking them so we can make ourselves internet celebrities!" and "if I can't do it myself, at least I can watch this other guy mow down kids with no chance of competing and cheer him on!"

There are exceptions of real skill of course, but those exceptions are what the others are desperately trying to emulate by seeking out weaker opponents. Introspection is going to be a hard sell for those others.
That wouldn't have mattered for me. The contractor I worked for (and most that I'm aware of) required me to complete a questionnaire that they used to assess my likelihood of getting a clearance before extending me an offer.

Not trying to doubt you, but I find the idea that a company can't terminate an employee for failing to get a clearance for a job that requires a clearance to be tough to believe. You have a source?
Getting a good image.

You're imagining things. Google hasn't been prevented from that at all, yet, and may not be. We are discussing remedies here that have not happened yet. You cannot discount one possible remedy because of the existence of another possible remedy.

See my last 'graph.

Different devices would be assigned to different VPNs or VLANs.

It's not an absolutely secure system, but it strikes me as at least as functional as present systems, and far less intrusive.

It would require content providers to self-label where possible, and be subject to third-party labeling where the provider/publisher itself doesn't, won't, or cannot. I've reasons to believe that most would be reasonably willing to participate.
Tropospheric ducting is rare on 11meter, but indeed Hams have achieved some pretty creative antenna setups in HF. It is a deep rabbit hole, but in the spirit of comparing apples-to-apples...

Also, the ERP limits on FCC stamped consumer modules is fairly low for unlicensed users. i.e. many Lora modules have iffy certified antennas for compliance reasons.

> Do you propose we make it illegal to tip?

Before services are rendered? Yes, I think I'd be ok with that.

Really I'd like to see a groundswell of people refusing to tip but that's the catch-22, stopping tips hurts the person without fixing the underlying issue (being underpaid/dependent on tips). How do you take away the crutch without knocking the person down? I don't have a good answer but tipping currently is out of control and something needs to change.
You totally can, just not a "disproportionate percentage"
Depressingly i think sharing computers at least in the western world has become a thing of the past. At the very least, sharing your main form of computing.
Putting a CDN in front would prevent this at the bucket level, but then someone could still hit the CDN at 10k requests/second. We could rate limit it there though, which would be nice.

The downside is that people already have the URLs for existing bucket directly. So we'd need to change those either way.

The reason why the attacker couldn't just hit the API to get the signed URLs is due to rate limiting that I go over using the rack-attack ruby gem. Since that's limited to 60/second, that's more like 43k images/day max.
> It's more of a bad and broken transliteration that if you struggle to think about you can parse out and understand.

it seems to be more common to see sign language interpreters now. is it just virtue signaling to have that instead of just closed captions?
Rate limiting (and its important cousin, back-off retries) is an important feature of any service being consumed by an "outside entity". There are many different reasons you'll want rate limiting at every layer of your stack, for every request you have: brute-force resistance, [accidental] DDoS protection, resiliency, performance testing, service quality, billing/quotas, and more.

Every important service always eventually gets rate limiting. The more of it you have, the more problems you can solve. Put in the rate limits you think you need (based on performance testing) and only raise them when you need to. It's one of those features nobody adds until it's too late. If you're designing a system from scratch, add rate limiting early on. (you'll want to control the limit per session/identity, as well as in bulk)
You may already know, but Slant 3D (print farm) do _some_ of this with Etsy and Shopify, and have an API for further integrations.

> last month decided to abandon the plan to deprecate cookies and tracking

Make no mistake, all that original plan was about was about applying pain to everybody else in the advertising world, while their replacement for cookies would have been satisfactory only at Google's scale. The whole thing was Google astroturfing, taking advantage of everyone's ignorance of how the Internet works to further entrench their advertising monopoly.

I don't know why they aborted the plan, but I suspect regulators had caught on that it wasn't altruism but Anti-competitiveness that motivated it.

Poland has a tale of "Pan Twardowski"(Mr Twardowski) about a man who made a pact with the devil for all kinds of powers, in exchange the devil said he will take Twardowski's soul if he ever sets his foot in Rome - since he didn't intend to visit Rome, he assumed this was the perfect deal. However the devil outwitted him, by coming for his soul in an inn called Rzym(Rome in Polish).

The bucket is private though, only accessible through the CDN. The old URLs would cease to function. On AWS this is implemented through OAI/OAC, granting the CloudFront distribution access via its own unique principal. AWS has had a baseline security recommendation for years now to disable S3 public access at the account/org level.

Maybe this breaks things, maybe you need to expire some caches, but (forgive me for being blunt, I can't think of a better way to say it) that's the cost of not doing things correctly to begin with.

My first thought as a security engineer when setting something up to be public has always been "how hard could someone hit this, and how much would it cost/affect availability?"

Hermes 3 will follow the sys prompt pretty closely if you have a version where you can edit it. In the discord there were a few times it jailbroke pretty aggressively in spite of the blank system prompt.
In practice your ISP already has this information and more (all traffic you're currently transacting). The information is less distributed than it would be in the case of providing all and sundry online publishers with that same information, and would offer less effective privacy control over how that information is used.

For those who'd bypass their ISP's access limitations/controls using a VPN ... you've now got additional complications and really no less effective control than voluntary age-disclosure rules.

Another option would be imputed age classification, which again is something that major sites (e.g., Google, YouTube, FB, Instagram, TikTok) can already perform via algorithmic / AI assessments of marketing categories based off of on-site activities, consumption trends, etc.

You probably already have a solution for this, but ALVR is amazing for getting Quest hardware (any of them) to do hardware-accelerated wireless streaming: https://github.com/alvr-org/alvr

The 120hz refresh rate of those newer displays really opens up when you have a proper desktop GPU to drive them. The past few weeks I've been dusting off my Quest 1 with ALVR over USB and it's great. You can have the goofiest setup (NixOS? GNOME Wayland? Nvidia drivers? Come right in!) and it will translate the Quest's built-in tracking into SteamVR with less than a frame of delay.

Gotta love it when that thing you thought was dead is actually pretty usable thanks to sideloading and a hardworking community. If I hadn't just gotten 2 weeks of VTOL VR out of that headset I might have remembered to resent the $400 I spent on it.
Yea, and the point is that they really should not have picked LGPL in the first place. If you pick a copyleft license, please don't do it because it's cool - do it if and because you care for what it stands for.

However, I thought about it and I think I can get the cases where monetary opportunities started to outweigh what's essentially are political ideals. Happens all the time, heh. I guess I can imagine person not being honest with themselves until the temptation really comes. Especially if it's about casual developers trying to have some money to live comfortably (as opposed to lowering their standards of living), rather than getting rich.

I can only hope it's that and not a simple ignorance.
