Ferrocene doesn't involve formal proofs. ISO 26262 and IEC 61508 are primarily process-focused standards for project management, quality control, integration, testing, and code review. To the extent there's automated code analysis, it would involve linting for disallowed patterns similar to MISRA C.
Simple logic and science. Batteries do not cause forceful explosions like we've seen today. These pagers were intercepted and implanted with explosives (or entire load swapped with pre-made malicious ones) and then allowed to continue on to their destination. Thus I can say with 100% confidence that this was a supply chain attack.

Isn’t political isolation a strategy in extremism movements? It encourages some people in the middle to move into your camp, while others who move away can become convenient enemies. So from my understanding, the consequences are possibly considered another benefit for the country’s current government.
According to what _Bentley_ posted it sounds as though there is a moral signal: some states that object to Israel consider it to be beneath their standards to participate in the Eurovision. This implies that those that do participate have no problem with what Israel does. That includes the Australians and the others mentioned earlier by _alphanerd_. Otherwise they too could just not participate.
That's an apples and oranges comparison.

Technology advances, but it doesn't invent itself.

CPUs didn't magically get faster by people scaling them up - they got faster by evolving the design to support things like multi-level caches, out-of-order execution and branch prediction.

Perhaps time fixes everything, but scale alone does not. It'll take time for people to design new ANN architectures capable of supporting AGI.
Most programming languages have easy and well-known string concatenation and the simplest querying function typically takes just a string - it's easy to see why people naturally reach for string concatenation.
Pretty much.

> Hezbollah is depleted from its disastrous efforts in Syria

From what I understand this is inaccurate. Prior to the events of today, Hezbollah moral is very high and they have plenty of armaments from Iran - everything from small arms and uniforms to long-range rockets and drones. In fact, they even produce a very nice local drone made from foam and duct tape - literally.

Or, as we have seen hundreds of times, it's sold at market price to a "third party" company that is actually owned by one of the board members or executives, which then rent it back to the company for a slight premium.

Confused travelers arrive at wrong airport after Oakland renaming, SF says
Some responses approached the reason, but they are essentially the behemoth financial interests of the various pension funds of essentially all the state governments and corporations, high net worth family funds, institutional money like university endowments and REITs/IRA/401ks, even many foreign sovereign and pension funds like the Scandinavians, Dutch, Germans, etc.

As you may be surmising, this not only carries rather major domestic risks if pension and other domestic funds start crumbling, but it also has massive implications for foreign countries’ domestic financiers and social stability, but it also has geopolitical implications from it.

During the post housing fraud period, a rather understated change was implemented to encourage accounting to not mark real estate to market value, i.e., record what the market is willing to pay, but rather keep real estate on the books for whatever value one would like to keep it at by various methods and practices.

What that essentially affected was a cooking of the books to prevent on book from showing losses. It is essentially still going on, but especially in commercial real estate since the COVID happenings.

You now still have massive buildings essentially still totally empty, all still valued at full occupation valuation even though they are, e.g., only taking in barely enough to cover operating costs in a freeze state, i.e., minimal services.

This is where things like property taxes come in, as the properties are still assessed at fabricated values, and property taxes are used to fund the local governments, everyone with financial interests in commercial real estate (many, because it was considered very safe) are now crying for mom. It gets a bit off topic here, but I think you get the gist.

Most (pouch-shaped) Li-Ion batteries just look like square shapes packaged in heavy aluminum foil, with some Kapton tape to keep a small PCB with protection circuitry in place. Any determined hobbyist could buy smaller batteries and the packaging materials off AliExpress to make something that looks visually similar but has lots of space left over for explosives.

With cylindrical batteries it's a bit harder, but ultimately they are just a cylinder with pressed-on end caps. You can disassemble them (lots of videos on youtube), change the contents and reassemble them.

It is pretty high effort compared to just sticking the explosives next to the pager's electronics, but I don't think the barrier to entry is actually that high

The team is not interesting in fixing it and shows a fundamental flaw with how they handle thin intersections. ImplicitCad is sadly nothing more than a non-functioning hobby project and should be labeled as such.

There's an on-going war between Hezbollah and Israel since Hezbollah attacked Israel on October 8th [0]. The pagers were to be used by Hezbollah members. Hezbollah is considered a terrorist organization by many countries, including Arab countries. Being a member of a terrorist organization isn't the best way to stay safe, especially not during a conflict that your organization initiated. I think that the fact that these explosions happened in public places isn't so relevant considering the size of the explosions.

One easy way to conceal the explosive would be to overmold it in a cavity inside the plastic enclosure. This would escape all but the most thorough inspections. And since battery terminals are typically also embedded in the plastic this can provide a clandestine supply of power and signal with something like Dallas protocol to the fuse.

> since the Big band era (which i doubt anybody here know)

I "know" it through my parents. Although I don't know how much radio time they logged. They heard big bands live, for dancing.

I could be wrong, but I have the impression that radio stations would have "programs" of music, along with news and entertainment. It wouldn't be music all the time. There weren't portable radios, either -- you'd gather around the radio set.

Must have been good times.
The opposite is probably more true. By the admission of some of Netanyahu's own command staff, the only reason the IDF is still committed in Gaza is to keep Netanyahu in power; as soon as Gaza is resolved, he's likely to be ousted (and then to face criminal charges). Israel cannot stay fully engaged in Gaza and open up a conventional military front in southern Lebanon. If we're using this kind of logic --- message board logic, let's be clear --- today's action harms Netanyahu's immediate interests, by hastening the point at which the IDF will substantially withdraw from Gaza.
Google gets it's own founding date wrong
operatives

A lot of people seem to think Hezbollah is purely military in nature because of the 'terrorism' label. The organization was founded to respond to Israel's invasion of Lebanon, and while it is a militant organization it also has seats in the Lebanese parliament, engages in a lot of non-military activities, and does not have simple politics - for example, it has condemned Al Qaeda and ISIS for terroristic attacks.

Labels such as 'terrorists' are as often designed to confuse as to inform. Reductionist categorization makes people easy to manipulate.
Apparently it was founded in 2015 -- Who knew?

From someone who currently has seven figure TC and is about to FIRE into the sunset by EOY in order to downshift (leaving millions in unvested stock grants on the table): such comp and work life balance are basically incompatible. When you’re young and poor, that’s fine, but I’m neither. Any claims to the contrary would need some serious evidence. This is so for rather fundamental reasons: comp like this requires serious results, and serious results are very difficult to achieve in large organizations. And only large companies are willing to pay this much.
It doesn’t imply that at all.
In my 15 years of doing that work most of the time employers couldn't tell if a solution were original or not unless it was something they specifically requested. Even then most of the original work was in context of original content messaging, user interaction, and the measurements there of.

Where employers in the past really cared is in the speed of delivery. Typically speed of delivery was faster using a framework solution only if the exact solution were already written and available as an extension. In absolutely every other case software originally written in house was always faster to deliver back to the business. This is because with original software the developers are not limited by prior existing conventions. It always comes down to the prior experience and confidence of a given set of developers.

The business knows this before assigning the tasks to the development team, and that awareness (more than anything else) determines the opportunities for developers to identify their own speed of delivery. Most development teams are entirely unaware of just how thoroughly their performance is measured from a business perspective. That should be painfully obvious, because developers only cost money, and those costs go straight to the bottom line.

> And there's no indication that all of them were Hezbollah members.

Hezbollah runs a parallel communications network in Lebanon. Nobody but Hezbollah members would have these devices or even be able to connect to the network,

In the Arabic news, which I read as well, there are reports of an 8 year old girl killed. Other than that, it seems that 10 to 12 Hezbollah operatives were killed and over 2700 injured - 1000 seriously. That is a calculated risk that civilians will be injured or killed. Hezbollah recently bombed a playground in Israel and killed 12 or 13 children playing football. So if this attack prevents just one additional successful Hezbollah attack it is a net win.

You should know that most of the north of Israel have been evacuated for months due to Hezbollah fire. They rain dozens to hundreds of missiles on Israel every day, for almost an entire year now.

I maintain a lot of their stuff for my coworkers. It's nice looking, and easy to understand, but they also have a lot of things that are kludgy clunky or strange that don't make any sense.

Their ring light, for instance, can't be manually turned off using the shoulder buttons. It can only be set to a low dim. Why not? Makes no sense.

Their FaceCam needs a high bandwidth usb 3.0 port all to itself. Won't reliably work over a hub. Why not? I mean, give it a low bandwith 720p mode or something.

The Mic has a headphone jack, sure, no problem, but why does it install 8 audio devices during the install? Only install what is needed!

Their USB capture cards have issues staying connected unless they are plugged directly into the laptop/desktop motherboard, and even then they flip out every few hours.

These issues have ensured that I won't buy any of their stuff. I've recreated an entire elgato stack that would have cost $500+ for like $90 in cheap chinesium crap and it works perfectly.

> how that wasn’t in effect the ruling in citizens united?

Donating to a candidate or sponsoring an ad that says things about a candidate are protected political speech, requiring a strict standard for the Congress to regulate. Citizens reasoned that if that’s true individually it should be true for a group, on the basis—in part—of freedom of assembly, whether that be an advocacy group or corporation.

Money = speech is a colloquial but wrong summary. Money donated to a candidate or used to buy speech is protected, whether done individually or as a group. The simplest resolution is to read the opinion.

(Logically speaking, it makes sense. It’s just absurd to construct the freedom of assembly as automatically making all rights natural persons enjoy commutative.)
I think we can both agree that the reality is any sort of off-world colonization is going to be unpleasant and difficult beyond imagine with no simple solutions. I think we are much closer to being able to construct conformable habitats on other celestial bodies than we are to being able to make megastructures in outer space. Long term artificial structures will probably be the way to go, but I think to get there we will need to be able to setup base camps on nearby celestial bodies.

That depends on who the 2700 people are, right? If it's 2700 random people, I agree. If it's 2600 Hezbollah operatives, not so much. If Hezbollah managed to surgically strike 2600 IDF soldiers, injuring and killing an additional 100 bystanders, I promise you I would offer the same analysis.

The issue on the other side is that the FAA has no incentive to move quickly. There is no negative consequence to FAA officials if they sit at their desks, shuffle papers around (with minor revisions or changes in approvals in each draft), and complain about being understaffed. In fact, that is the best thing for them to do, as they’re likely to get a bigger budget and more staff if they complain a lot and delay approvals; then they can keep doing the same thing again.
