The first example in the original SF Chronicle report it seems like they did very little to get in contact with the owner, someone staying in the very hotel the vehicle was parked in. The owner only happened to catch them in the act of trying to tow his vehicle and volunteered the video.

Nothing in the report appears to indicate that they made any effort to have the owner(s) in the first two examples volunteer the information at all.

This is no different than police attempting collecting cellphones from bystanders at the scene of a crime/disturbance as evidence. I'd be happy to provide law enforcement with any evidence relevant to the crime that may have occurred which I have, I'll be damned if they're just going to take my phone/vehicle and rip the entire device. I know what the information they collect looks like, and how that information is ingested. Your contacts, text messages, photos, etc are all going to end up in a database and potentially cross-referenced with any other ongoing cases.

Exactly. This is all I'm saying.

I don't have enough knowledge of Tor to make an argument that it does more harm than good or vice versa. But I do know that a lot of people on here are just as ignorant as I am but are quick to assume that Tor must be inherently good because it protects privacy.

As I said, if you look frankly at the risks and decide that the benefits are still worth it, that's a decision I'm comfortable with you making. But that requires looking very frankly at the risks, which most seem reluctant to do in favor of high-minded abstract discussions of the merits of freedom and privacy.

This subthread spawned from someone who helped facilitate a bomb threat through an exit node they were running, and that kind of concrete harm needs to be mentioned in any discussion of the merits of Tor.

Nice. Bundling everything together was how JupyterLab used to work before version 3, but it required a compilation step to install extensions, which made it inconvenient for users. With JupyterLab 3 (and maybe 4?), if I recall correctly, you could have both worlds - compile some extensions into a base js bundle, then install other extension to be loaded as federated webpack modules.
Oracle is kind of a shitty company to deal with, but they seem to be doing relatively well with open source these days.

There is chasm between “a nation that protects privacy” and “a government that I’ve done good work in”. The former is a nice-sounding rhetorical ideal, but if you do not care to name one that exists I’m not sure what is accomplished by conflating the two other than a sort of non sequitur self-congratulation in the comments of a thread about the tor project.
Might be a point of interest but not a very strong one. We all used Tor in high school to play flash games on the school network. It's not like they bust down your door because you connected to Tor.

It's way less than thousands.

To get this specific bug - one 'e' in the 7th digit and 9 digits less than 'a' - is 1/16*(10/16)^9 = 0.009095. Just under 1 in 1000. But if the 'e' is in the 2nd,3rd,4th,5th,6th you'd get the same bug, so actually about 6 in 1000.

But around 1% of the hashes will be all decimal digits and will parse as numbers ((10/16)^10 = 0.009). That's common enough that I've seen that one cause errors in our code too (somebody had code reading the hash then trying to append it to a string).
Colorblindness typically isn't full dichromacy (only two color channels). More commonly, it's just reduced functioning in one channel that reduces the brain's ability to distinguish similar colors. For example, someone who's red-green colorblind can probably sort extremely underripe tomatoes from the ripe ones, but might mix up almost and fully ripe ones. It's rare in my experience that subtle colorations make a significant difference there, given the range of normal colors in food.

However, colorblindness is strongly correlated with gender and cultural background. I wouldn't be surprised if those were associated with the same behaviors that might lead one to eat unidentified berries and mushrooms.
I replace 20% of my salt with MSG when I use it, and I normally salt meat with 1% of its weight. A pinch or two for a 1kg of meat + rice isn't enough for me unless you're not using a lot of meat, but obviously YMMV.

Mega lotteries draw once every 2-8 days. Slot machines / video poker / etc are happy to draw as fast as you can push the button. They are designed to take your money, but their rewards systems are completely different.

Also, the mega lotteries benefit from viral marketing, “earned media”, and water cooler talk. Slot machines are just a way for bored people to pass the time, much like video games or doomscrolling.

>When these molecules come naturally, they come with other ingredients that often complement or offset the positive or negative effects.

They can also come with ingredients that amplify their negative effects. That's why you usually don't eat your food raw, you cook it or leech out the bad stuff.
> It’s not that hard to tell every team that any headers have to start with ‘CFint’ and then enforce that.

To be a little bit blunt, this just means you have never built software in a very large company that may have a lot of existing/completely independent software, or have made technology acquisitions after the fact. That is, if you are starting from "time 0" of course it's very easy to say "internal headers need to start with CFInt", but that's rarely the case.
You can also read it in 2015 Tim Cook's 3D touch announcement voice or Zu announcing the ZTE device with a 3D screen in 2017 or whoever at LG announced the wide angle lens, got meh to bad reviews about it, and then it took off afterward anyways.

My point here is I'm not saying it can't ever be something anyone would want because of that rather something selling in another device on Amazon has no weight one way or the other on whether it'd be a good thing to add to a phone.
It certainly is when you knowingly use someone's work without compensating them for it when you are required to by law. Acting like it isn't because it's an intangible thing is a semantic point and not the political statement you are making it out to be.
Using Rust to Build a TSDB Running Inside a Car
This “holier than thou” attitude doesn’t make your point any stronger. It isn’t rage bait, and it isn’t a personal policy preference.

“Have begun getting warrants” means that they were doing this before, without them.

This is personal property that is being commandeered, bypassing constitutional rights. If the cameras have something the police consider evidence, then the police can go to a judge and get a warrant and then wait until the owner (who can be easily identified with auto registration records) responds.

If a crime happened outside of a store that has security cameras, then the police don’t get to break into the store and try to retrieve the data off of hard drives. They have to go through the proper channels and wait. This is no different.
I don't see that as a problem at all:

"Hey any teams out there, before you can add internal headers, you need to register them with some service." Then the list is loaded from static storage at startup time and/or refreshed on some periodic basis.

This is a little bit like asking about the significance of the number 2. What you're asking is way too general. What are we discussing? Maybe you can describe the contexts where you've seen this set and why you think it's surprising? Sets aren't usually studied in isolation.
Yeah, I'm thinking there's some related genetics here rather than the color of food being more likely to turn someone off with regular vision. I think both things can be true though. I'm red-green colorblind, and you're exactly right, it's not that I can't see red or green, they are just a bit harder for me to discern. I know grass is green and blood is red. I know a cardinal is red and a tree is green, however, it's harder for me to find the cardinal in the tree, which is how we learned I was colorblind as a kid. I doubt food looks different enough to me that it would turn normal sighted people off but I'd be ok with it. I'd bet there's some gene related to colorblindness and sense of taste or smell or something.
Search for "computational biology" on Amazon, but I'd say go first to online courses if you have time and commitment, like:

Also, checkout out

>“Have begun getting warrants” means that they were doing this before, without them.

Would "have begun buying widgets" mean that they used to steal widgets? At worst, it's an ambiguous phrase; but context and common sense tell us that the ambiguity resolves in the opposite way from how you're resolving it.

Citation needed. ISPs have entire departments dedicated to cooperating with law enforcement. Comcast has a whole portal with its own subdomain specifically for handling requests from law enforcement [0]. Cox has a page detailing exactly how to send them a subpoena [1]. These guys are clearly dealing with subpoenas just like the ones OP is describing all the time.

It only seems out of the ordinary this time because it's a random person who decided to play middle-man instead of an enormous corporation with a massive legal department.

(I've added a note to my comment above)

Yes, my intention was to say that it'll get their attention, but as a single data point won't justify a raid.

The detective said it to me as part of the conversation in which I was told I could collect my seized equipment, and it was said in a way that implied they thought I was still "guilty" despite the fact they found nothing incriminating in the multiple terabytes of data they seized.

The other (laughable) 'red flag data points' the detective mentioned were:

- The usage of virtual machines

- Having downloaded items from MEGA

Incredibly low bars for suspicion if you ask me, but then I know a bare minimum about technology...
The Series 10 is confirmed for 18 hours, like the Series 9 before it. The Ultra will definitely last longer. The Series 9 can as well, if you turn off features which Apple advertised the Apple Watch as having, and if you do not record a single exercise throughout the day. If you use the watch how it was advertised, it will last ~18 hours, which means if you charge it overnight, wake up at 7am, are awake for 16 hours, it will not survive the night.

Its not helpful, productive, or useful to state that you turn off headline features people paid to have in order to get greater battery life than even Apple advertises the device as having. Please adjust your discourse and do not repeat your behavior.

I've noticed I'm far more likely to try to eat underripe fruit and veg than the non-colourblind majority. This is probably due to my lower sensitivity to green, and how brown/red gets mixed up with green.

There's only a handful of things I won't eat, that others mistake for food. They are: Lamb's Fry, Kidney, Pumpkin, Beetroot, Parsnip, Natto.

Colour plays no part in this choice - they simply taste bad.
The future everyone wanted – in-car ads tailored to your journey and passengers
I think we need a structure to allow LEOs to request and enforce a legal hold on data without having access to the data. Something that would allow a lower bar for the request, preserve any potential evidence, and allow the owner of the data to respond. We're entering an age of constant, massive, data collection. Video, audio, text, metadata, locations, and more being collected by every device we own and every device around us.

Law enforcement should have to constrain the request for information and the information provided to them should only be required to meet those constraints.
