>It deliberately "roughed up" the videos to make them look stolen or leaked.

Did it occur to you why they did that? Perhaps to make them appear legit on a service that was well known for piracy in the first place? The big difference here is that megaupload was not as popular as youtube among normies. So they didn't bother to leak there. Or maybe they did, and we just don't know yet. Dotcom could still come up with the same defense in the coming trials and it would be hilarious. Especially since there is research that show that piracy can boost media. So if Viacom didn't do it, someone else certainly did. The double standard is very real.

Fighting WFH is old. It's a change like any other and a lot of companies have adapted already. The only problem I see with it is that it was not proposed and promoted by Harvard Business Review and therefore all old guys moan about it.
Just rent your office out as a co-working space. That way you can even run a profit off it.

And keep an eye out how long it takes the board to realize that the assistant to the CEO is no longer a pure cost, but actually returning a profit for the company. /s

On the other hand, Mac hardware was super expensive. Today Mac hardware commands a little premium but pre OS 9 the difference in price was huge. So Mac owners could not have been very price sensitive in general.

Floats are not weird. They were just utterly misused, using them for layout is an ugly hack.

They were conceived to float text (or other elements) around static elements. Think text floating around a picture, like this:

The whole idea of the yield curve is that you (generally) get compensated for that risk with higher rates. That is why (outside of crises) the yield curve is upward sloping. It follows that if you buy shorter dated T-bills or bonds, the liquidation loss risk you mention is low, and you’ll still usually make out better than with the bank because you’re not paying any middleman.
It's not leaked because the video was on the official Stanford's YouTube channel for like one and a half day. I was surprised he was so aggressive towards Google, taking in consideration he was long time CEO there and he earned billions from Google. My opinion is that he is a smart business manager but he knows very little of the actual software development judging from his bizarre comments on Google's AI.

>According to iVerify, once activated, the application downloads a configuration file via an insecure connection, which can result in system-level code being executed. The configuration file is retrieved from a domain hosted by AWS over unsecured HTTP, which leaves the configuration and the device vulnerable to malicious code, spyware and data wiping.

The AGPL has a significantly stronger viral clause than the plain GPL. You must offer the source code to anyone who connects to the AGPL-covered code via a network connection (i.e. must open source the entire server if it is using any AGPL code)
I don’t think I’d categorize Iraq and Afghanistan as “imperial wars” and as remotely similar things as the regime change operations during the Cold War. Very different context and reasoning.

But sure, powerful states want to protect their hegemony. Part of that includes not letting your allies turn into hostile enemy states. I’m not sure what else you’re suggesting such a power do? Let the oppositional force just take everything?

The opinion you’ve expressed here is just the typical cynical approach that seems to lack any understanding of real world politics, or the basic fact that people in the Western “free” world might actually have a legitimate interest in promoting freedom and defending their values.

I recommend reading biographies of presidents during that era, especially Eisenhower. You’ll learn about the difficult (and often wrong) choices those in power had to make. To treat their actions as simply some kind of imperial bloodlust is not even remotely historically accurate.

Again, I am in no way arguing that these various interventions were “good” or “justified” or what have you, just that the framing of them as purely militaristic imperial conquests is flat out wrong and uninformed.

There are projects that do that, but it looks like PyScript instead runs Python code directly. It uses a Python interpreter compiled to WebAssembly - either CPython (from Pyodide) or MicroPython.
They often use older version of things like Bash and Coreutils, or equivalents from other ecosystems (i.e. Apple ships the BSD versions thereof)

>I would love to understand where the war-like anti-Chinese sentiment is coming from in US elite circles.

In my opinion, it's not about communist vs democracy, IP theft, ideology, Taiwan, etc. Elites hardly care. These are just the topics used by the government to get common people riled up.

The sentiment comes from increasing competition from China in the upper value chain where these elites get their wealth from. These elites want China to manufacture phones for them. They don't want China to design phones and sell it to consumers directly.

The same sentiment was found when Japan looked like it was going to take over the world economically.

It's a lot easier for the government to get its citizens to become anti-China if they use anti-communist, IP theft, human rights, etc. propaganda. Commoners resonate with these much easier. It's not going to work as well if the government tells you to hate China because they're increasingly more competitive at high value things such as design and services.
Sure that counts as differential testing. The issue is there are limited number of them compared to the amount of code you can generate mechanically, and especially in the case of C, it is not straightforward to write a standardized script to build and run a bunch of random projects.
I think you can get away without learning grids, but flexbox is a must - given its convenience over the old “float-hacks” and its omnipresence in modern CSS.

Besides the already mentioned css-tricks articles, I recommend checking out the guide to flexbox from mdn[1] (in the side menu there is also one for grids) as well as the reference to “CSS flexible box layout”[2]. These helped me get a deeper understanding about the concepts behind flexbox and how the properties and their shorthands actually work.

Verizon is prone to overstepping with Pixels. I couldn't tether my phone with my carrier (from a country that doesn't have Verizon anywhere near it) because they happened to use the same SIM ID (or something, I'm not sure of the details), and when I tried my phone would reach out to Verizon to see if I was allowed to, it didn't know who I was and said no, so I couldn't tether my phone.

Aristotle's conception of the goodness of a thing (which is not convincingly conveyed by the author) is essentially normatively neutral; a good knife qua knife for Aristotle is one that cuts well as a good nuclear weapon is one which is destructive. Using a nuclear weapon might not be good but just as a gun might be well-designed without being well-used I don't think it is too normatively concerning to be able to identify something as being a good example of its kind (a well-designed nuclear weapon), though I could be wrong!
But some management jobs are technical themselves. Take CFO for example. It would be very difficult for an engineer to become a CFO in any reasonable timescale.

Marketing, HR, Sales and the aforementioned finance are all things that a frequently trivialised on hn, but none of them would be an easy transition for your average engineer.

I am not in gaming but I run finance at an organisation that has a lot of engineers.

1) I spend a lot of time explaining what our organisation does to our finance team. This is rare in my experience.
2) giving up on engineering focus to want to become commercially focused is a big step, and not one everyone is going to want to take. Imagine suddenly being dragged into a meeting with your holding company to explain why your project is losing money?

Overall I can't believe that they develop games like this. If you have a game about battling in Japan, and you want to make a game about battling in Rome...why does that need any programming at all?

Did you know linux is delivered with a secret but inactive remote shell for hackers to attack your box?

It can be enabled with:

socat file:`tty`,raw,echo=0 TCP-L:1022

Or:

Better uninstall awk or else you're "vulnerable to spyware", from the wording of the article.

The article is clearly playing this up far more than it should be.

The narrative of 'data-privacy' being a threat is IMO a whole lot of simplist bait. The real thing at stake here is the vehicle manufacturing jobs that are being threatened, and the whole chain of high value jobs that come with it. People who lose their jobs lose faith in their governments. And countries losing a high value chain of goods/services isn't going to do well psychologically for them.

This is the most common thing everyone loves to say whenever anyone says they study any martial art, and they use it as an excuse to study no martial arts, because "what's the point"

I never suggested that BJJ was going to be the only thing you should learn or know if you wanted to defend yourself in a fight. Cross training with some striking (muay thai, boxing, something) and/or weapons training? Sounds great, go for it.

To be clear: I have been in my fair share of fights, IRL. I've been stabbed twice. I grew up in Brooklyn and spent a lot of time in, well, less reputable bars and clubs. Most fights do not end in the first five seconds, and you should GTFO if you can, at all. Not fighting is the best way to win. If your opponent has friends with them, GTFO at any cost; that goes without saying. Most fights go to the ground, relatively quickly. When they do, taking their back and getting your hooks in is far better than mounting them, since you can absolutely control them from that position while someone else calls 911 and/or finds help to break up the fight you definitely didn't start, because starting fights is the fastest way to lose them.

As for "adrenaline matters" - this is explicitly why you train. It absolutely matters. But someone untrained will just spaz. Maybe they get lucky, maybe they don't; but they usually don't. Someone trained may not remember every single thing they know; but so much of it becomes instinctual that even with the adrenaline dump they are definitely not on their best game, but are still far more capable than the untrained individual. Furthermore, competing helps a lot with desensitizing yourself to the adrenaline dumps.

Also, "before you realize there was a fight about to happen" is not a thing. I have never been 'caught off guard,' because that is not how fights start. Yes, sometimes an idiot will throw a punch at a random person on the street; but that is absolutely not how most fights start. Well before a fight starts, you have already tried defusing the situation and de-escalating, because engaging is a last resort.

But sure, maybe their "friend will just curb stomp you" so you may as well just never try.
I am autistic and this describes exactly my experience with my ex-wife - extreme emotional dis-regulation, extreme avoidance of shame by any means, doubling down in increasingly bizarre excuses if called out and I was the best thing ever happened to her, until I wasn't maybe 8 years in.

Thing was, it wasn't all bad by any means, and I had come to accept her for who she was, but she couldn't.

In the end she decided to placate her internal ghosts and demons and bailed, rather than consider the real life people standing in front of her.

I wasn't the first, or even the second, in her life to experience this cycle.

I had made the mistake of thinking I would be different.

I have mixed feelings about their handling of TW Warhammer III. Parts of it are harder to defend (Initial campaign, buggy releases) but the expectations of the fans are arguably a bit crazy. I have 1.8k hours between TWW II + III, which probably isn't an outlier of the typical fan i read feedback from as a lurker on /r/TotalWar.

People expect a DLC provide them 100s of hours of new/fresh gameplay that will allow them to play the same game for 3-6 months until the next DLC release. Comparatively you could look at the same amount of content and play 50ish hours of game play then set it down and play something else until the next DLC. Even though my play style is closer to the former, I think the expectations of the latter are more healthy. This mismatch of expectations and the pricing of any DLC (which adds in macro factors outside of the Dev's control) has lead to such toxicity on the subreddit at times.

It's also interesting how much that toxicity has subsided in recent months with positive releases, better/consistent developer correspondence. Which maybe points to my expectations opinion being a bit wrong.
Even modern cartoon villains are better people than that. Sure, they want to take over the world, but they do so overtly (and wouldn’t try to suppress an interview where they said so) and have a modicum of concern for their own family and underlings.
in some countries maybe, I think in some US states? I don't think that is standard though.

This scenario is easily avoided though, change prices once per day, or you could change prices when the store or aisle is empty.
I think you would have to target the scope even smalller to particular areas of finance probably quant or trading within a hedge fund. The majority of jobs at a large bank are mostly fixed salary with limited bonus. There are many jobs that are essential but don't capture a percentage of the value they generate. For example processing transactions is essential for a bank but typically doesn't pay large bonuses in that area.
