There's a collection of little facts I imagine being useful if a human got stranded somewhere in the universe and helpful aliens weren't sure where to take you. Without books and electronics, what could you memorize that would help them search and identify Sol/Earth in their big astral database?

This is one of them, the seemingly-pure-coincidence of solar eclipses where the apparent size of the moon equals the apparent size of the sun.

Ratios in general would be handy, since they would not depend on difficult-to-calibrate units: The moon is ~1/6 times the mass of our Earth; the biggest planet Jupiter/#5 is 2.5x the mass of all the rest and 5.2x the distance from the sun compared to Earth/#3, etc.

I found it amusing rather than antagonistic. It was also a great conversation opener to discuss pros and cons of Linux.

I'm always amazed at how loud passenger pickup trucks are by default here in the US - growing up in Canada, pickup trucks were generally quiet / unobtrusive unless user modified. Here, they seem to come LOUD from the factory - probably less regulations, and it's cheaper to have a loud muffler and/or get a few more hp/lb-ft for the towing wars.
You can get passkeys with knowledge-based access if you use 1Password, or if you set a PIN on your YubiKey: https://support.yubico.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402836718866-U...
Sure they are: Passkeys are phishing-resistant, and random passwords are not. This is pretty basic stuff.
The best arrangement I've witnessed (for family friends from my hometown) was a private funeral for the close family members, followed 6 weeks later by a memorial service in a nice rented space with a slideshow going, drinks, and a general air of a big reunion.

The large amount of time between the two events was better for the family, who didn't feel the same sting of fresh grief. There was no awkwardness, either. Everyone could remember the deceased in a way that she would have appreciated - old memories, laughter, and positivity.
The blame lies completely with the NHTSA.

The only reason you care about copying your password is because it's usually (always?) the only credentials you have for a service.

This isn't true of webauthn/passkeys. The number of use cases where you need to "make a copy of " or "backup" your passkeys is zero. I get that some providers let you do this for some level of convenience, but you can opt out of this and just enrol multiple distinct credentials with each service.
And if you have 2FA setup and no devices. You're also screwed. Its the exact same scenario.
You don't have a lot of options at interstate service plazas. Yeah, I'll grab some fries at a McDonalds or a Burger King maybe a few times a year if I'm driving and hungry. Depending upon where I am I may go to a more local place I know but it takes more time.

Yeah Hardcover seems to have a GraphQL API they use for their UI, which they expose. There’s not a lot of extra polish for third party devs — it feels like “this is the API we use, use it or not, things may break”. On the other hand, StoryGraph does server-side rendering and so it doesn’t have an API already. So adding one would be a decent amount of work

> "Always go to the funeral" means that I have to do the right thing when I really, really don't feel like it. I have to remind myself of it when I could make some small gesture, but I don't really have to and I definitely don't want to. I'm talking about those things that represent only inconvenience to me, but the world to the other guy. You know, the painfully under-attended birthday party. The hospital visit during happy hour.

Your scenario makes it so the house key doesn't matter in the end though; if they're able to get to the lockbox to use the lockbox key they're already in the house and thus already able to rob it regardless of whether they got the lockbox key. In the end your door lock did nothing for you at all. I don't get how that relates to using a PIN stored in the TPM to protect your actual password, other than suggesting "well your account can be hacked without even touching your device" which I mean yeah sure.

But in the end that PIN is still different from that Windows/Microsoft password. The PIN only works on that one device and gets totally invalidated after only a few failures. This is untrue of passwords which usually never get fully invalidated and are then used across multiple devices.

If you manage to find out my PIN to log into device A with my Microsoft account is 1234, you don't have access to my Microsoft Account in general or on device B. If you see I log in to my device A with hunter42 (my Microsoft account password), you can now log in to my Microsoft account and every other device I'm using my Microsoft account.

Is that a difference without distinction? I'd say that's quite a bit of distinction! And that's only one of the many differences!

> Chris Trechter, a lighting-focused engineer who used to work for Magna International, the largest automobile parts manufacturer in North America, told me the company would adhere to 108 in making headlights for clients like General Motors but that the rule is “archaic.” “It does not account for LEDs,” he said, “and there are giant loopholes that allow you to throw basically unlimited light as long as you meet all the other aspects of 108.”

There are multiple references to this idea that you can have a basically unlimited brightness headlamp because the way it's tested is flawed. Anyone know how the testing process works?

Well yes, but you’re not leaving commented out code for anyone other than you. A “sane” git structure will automatically decline your pull request if it contains commented out code.

I say “sane” because I know a lot of places probably allow you to do it. You really don’t want to pollute a code base like that though.

To be fair it’s not like the FLN were that much less brutal than the French both during and after the war.

Of course in hindsight (even if we ignore all the mass murder and atrocities, which we can’t..) that was was entirely pointless from the French perspective. What were they even hoping to achieve? Unless they were willing to grant full suffrage and civil rights to the entire Muslim population independence seemed inevitable. Best case was holding onto the majority French/pro-French areas in the north..)

Wow, this is a perfect example of talking without knowing anything.

Previous government accrued over 1000% inflation over 4 years, and shit was hitting the fan really hard. Money was worthless, and people spent it as soon as they got it because it was losing ~10% of its value per month.

Current government did an amazing turnaround and fix of the economy, inflation this year is down by half, and monthly inflation rates are back to 2019 levels, which for a normal country is horrible, but for Argentina is pretty great.

The ad revolution is here, but not in the way people think.

How many more ads can Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook add? Twitch plays 8 minute ad reels, my Facebook feed is a cesspool, and YouTube would probably be bad if I didn't block all ads on the platform. Amazon searches are close to 50% ads for the first ~30 results. Even DuckDuckGo is getting into the dark patterns - it's almost impossible to differentiate what is an ad vs a genuine search result.

Is ARPU up? Or is it much flatter than these companies would like?
I don't know why you would assume this was satire. If it were, that would be clearly indicated somewhere on the page. If it is, I haven't seen it.

I suppose Elon's behavior and beliefs have become so normalized in some circles that people really can't understand why anyone would find him objectionable. It's likely a symptom of being chronically online and poisoned by internet culture, mayhaps.

I also don't know what being a "lefty" has to do with anything. The article lists a number of concerns, and none of them seem linked to any particular political ideology. I wouldn't necessarily make the mistake of assuming the American political dichotomy necessarily maps to British politics, or that a member of the Royal Society must necessarily be "leftist" to object to Elon Musk's behavior. Admittedly I'm just going by vibes but the "Royal Society" at Oxford doesn't seem like a den of radical leftism.

All of the German automakers have this feature that they all call something different, but yes. The current NHTSA regulations prevent it from being deployed in the US, as another commenter pointed out though it seems like the NHTSA finally relented and approved it so I’d expect it to start showing up. My car already has the hardware and it’s a software switch to flip it on, so I imagine most other newer German cars are the same.

This was because the government devaluated the fictitious dollar exchange rate, which had like 100% difference with the actual market rate, which then meant that salaries in dollars went down by a lot, though in actuality they were already down. The other thing is that poverty is now at 46%, so things are improving very fast.

> I’ve never made them obnoxious or deafening

This reminds me of how cigarette smokers famously don't know how horrible they smell to everyone around them, and think it's "fine", something they do to bring themselves "happiness and joy", and so forth. Maybe if the people around you who aren't car enthusiasts find your car obnoxious and deafening, it's just obnoxious and deafening.

Personally, I'd settle for a compromise where no one is allowed to drive one of these vehicles down a street with private residences on it after 10 p.m.
Taken as given the statement in the parent that "there's no moral principle by which it would be right to expose and open-source their code.", then that sort of transitive requirement ought not be imposed. Though I don't agree with that statement.

> Highways and semis create by far the most noise pollution.

Semis conduct work and generally don't drive through residential neighborhoods. Intentionally loud vehicles seem to prefer residential neighborhoods and produce no positive work but annoy others and cause unnecessary pollution ( both noise and air ). Sirens for police cars and emergencies are necessary. Insecure people overcompensating with loud cars and motorcycles are unnecessary.

> The world is not a place requiring sterilization of the senses.

In no sense does banning intentionally loud vehicles "sterilize" the world of sound. As you noted, dogs bark, people have parties outside, etc.

People who drive loud vehicles or motorcycles, especially through residential areas, should be fined for the 1st offense and imprisoned for the second offense. And mechanics who help create such cars should have their businesses shut.

The people with these loud vehicles brought the hate on themselves by intentionally annoying people. If people like loud cars, then they should drive them in specifically designated race tracks.

Isn't the difference that with passkeys you'd have 1 password for all passkeys where when using passwords directly you'd have a different one for each site. The benefit of passkeys here being that you shouldn't need that password most of the time so you don't expose it. You get the benefits of unique passwords per-site with only 1 actual password. The same benefits of a password manager but with better unique passwords.

The main downside to passkeys currently is that I cannot be my own service provider. Having that I don't see a big downside.
The initial simulations might give you a slightly wrong idea about the shape of Moon's orbit around the Sun. It doesn't form any loops (you can see that in the later more precise simulation) and is in fact convex (this one is a bit harder to see).

>How does that apply when you're releasing the source code in the jurisdiction where the law requires it?

That would depend on what exactly the requirement is and what exactly the third-party code is and is used for. Without the specifics, I'd say it seems plausible that the third party itself is not subject to the requirement but the firmware using the third-party code may be subject for both first- and third-party code.

1) "record keeping requirements described by the parent are completely wrong:"

2) "Any competent forum operator is already doing all of this [this = record keeping requirements described by the parent]".

Annualized is around 118%, down from a high of 211%. Last month to month inflation rate was 2.4%, down from 25% on last December. 2.4% annualized is around ~30%, which would give you the following series:

2023 => 211%

2024 => ~120%

2025 (if inflation keeps the same value) => 30%

However, if the government lowers the crawling peg they are instituting, and keep on not printing money, it's possible the inflation rate for 2025 is even lower.
There are many different funding models for media: hypothecated taxes, subscriptions, donations, merch...

Why does it have to be an alternate universe? I have been thinking the same and there it would not be easy, but it could be done, and even if we had people finding lots of loopholes it would greatly restrict advertising.
