The local government isn't their only customer. They also have contracts with the federal government who wants piggyback access to as many cameras as they can.

I would guess cellphone spectrum for direct to device service.

Or combining the two words to get Superficial Intelligence.

It is in a module, so it doesn't create risk for anyone that isn't loading that module. And most distros don't use it by default, you have to go out of you way to configure it.

I do wish distros would start moving more kernel modules into separate packages so it is obvious to security scanners and individual users whether a CVE impacts them or not. I'm sure I've rebooted my computer many times due to kernel packages updates when it probably wasn't needed. And put off security updates for a few days until I was able to reboot, when I could have installed them right away.

The policy is based on what is actually occurring. The Linux security team has had a flood of duplicate reports from AI, so they changed their policy to request that security bugs found by AI be reported on public mailing lists to avoid duplicates. They have not yet seen the same for human found bugs, so the old policy remains in place. It is likely that at some point in the future the AI discovered bugs will be a superset of human discovered ones, but for now humans and AI seem to be better at finding different types of bugs. When/if it does happen, the number of human bugs will taper off to nothing because AI will find them all first, so the policy change will take care of itself.

It is much more common with smartphones. I was never very social and before smartphones when I went to see a show or have dinner, I would always have a paperback in my back pocket and read it between sets or while waiting for food. But I was the exception - usually the only person in the bar reading rather than socializing, and one of a few at a restaurant. Now it isn't uncommon for most people to be on their phones in public.

Since 2021 when they started deploying the v1.5 satellites.

> The kind of person who wants the cheapest possible book moved from mass market paperbacks to e-readers.

When I've looked at ebooks in the past they were usually more expensive than mass market paperback, most often on par with trade paperback. Has this changed?

The discussion in the post is on-going. Two days ago they posted that they will not support Pixel 11 unless Google adds MTE support in a future update. That may happen in an upcoming December update, but it is just a rumor.

The fact that another museum tried to avoid giving out scans because the museum felt it would impact their gift shop sales supports the parent's claim about the museum's motivations, not refutes it.

Note that subtree and subrepo have the same SHA-1/SHA-256 incompatibility issue that submodules do, so this will be just as much of a trainwreck for them as well.

Ugh, I didn't know that SHA-1 submodules wouldn't be supported in SHA-256 repos. That changes the transition from painless to a major dumpster fire. Having to maintain converted forks, and use different hashes from upstream is going to be a mess.

They did retroactively change the deal for people who purchased chromebooks between 2024 and now.

They intended to deploy to a test environment and accidentally deployed the update to customer devices.

> The best way to program GPUs is face up to the reality that they are not the same machine as the CPU, write your kernels in separate files, and launch them manually

Isn't that how CUDA code is normally written?

This administration has done nothing to end or undermine the antitrust cases against Google. In both cases the judges found Google in violation of antitrust law, but both handed down fairly mild remedies, despite the administration (prosecutor) pushing for much stronger changes. The judges were appointed by Clinton (Leonie Brinkema) and Obama (Amit Mehta).

I think the images in the article are mosaics created from multiple images and the dark blob in the center is where their was no imagery because Saturn's south pole is currently tilted somewhat away from us. It has a 30 year orbit, and you can see in the images we are able to see closer and closer to the south pole each of the three years images were taken. The rough edges are just an artifact of image processing, and where individual exposures cut off.

Not true. To the extent that it is fair use to digitize a work for various purposes, it is also fair use to keep the original. It is only if they wanted to resell the original that they would have to delete their digitized copy. The reason they are destroying them because removing the binding is the most efficient way to scan them, they have no use for the originals after they have been scanned, and don't want to spend money storing them.

AI—DR

Starting a new lawsuit against the judge, potentially with its own appeals, is no less expensive and lengthy of a process than appealing the existing case. Allowing such suits would increase costs to everyone involved, not decrease them.

> And even if the judge is sanctioned or removed from the bench, that only prevents future harm; it does not actually make whole the person they have already harmed.

Yes this is a general problem with misconduct by police, prosecutors, and judges. A lot of times you are fortunate simply to win the case, but usually don't get any compensation for harm caused by the arrest, incarceration before trial, and cost of defense.

I would support dropping immunity and allowing private lawsuits when misconduct is proven through existing processes. But more-so it is very frustrating to me how often the American justice system focuses on punishing the perpetrator while doing little to make the victim whole. The victim should not be required to file a separate private lawsuit to obtain compensation, it should always be part of a criminal prosecution and other disciplinary processes.

Interestingly, none of the screenshots I can find show the dithering that the article talks about, and all the contemporary photographs of monitors show a less green blue background. I think maybe something is being lost in emulation?

And there are processes for disciplining and even removing judges who fail to uphold their responsibilities. A private lawsuit simply isn't venue for doing so.

If a language supports unicode it will have a fairly permissive definition of whitespace, and it will be easy to generate permutations of the whitespace that meet the syntax requirements.

Of course I would want my code formatting tool to normalize that all to plain 0x20 spaces. But it would still be a helpful "brown M&M" test of did you even read CONTRIBUTING and run the code formatter before submitting this PR?

Yes! How many people have been caught committing fraud because they used a modern word processor and fonts to forge old documents? How many leaks have occurred because people failed to redact documents correctly, despite there being easy to use tools for this very purpose? How many people neglected to strip sensitive EXIF information from images they share (before websites started doing it for them)? How many people flat out post evidence of their crimes on social media?

Yes, this watermark will be easy to strip. It is still valuable for the vast majority of times where people just don't.

> Not exactly sure what this is.

Yeah, took me a while, but it looks like an expansion pack for the 1997 Amiga-only game "Worms: The Director's Cut". It backports (demakes?) maps and audio from later games like Worms 2, Armageddon and World Party.

Be sure to check out the different layers. In addition to the default which shows shade at a given moment, there are also options for hours of sun in given day, and an a UI to quickly show shade at any day/time of year.

I don't know that it because Bradbury couldn't predict the changes. See The Veldt for example. It is more that painting an idyllic 1950's life cast a sharper contrast with the destruction and thus had stronger impact.

I assume this is in contest with RFC10015 which proposes "Deprecating Obsolete Key Exchange Methods in TLS 1.2 and DTLS 1.2"[1]. Both are Proposed Standards submitted in July, by the same author. HN discussion[2]

IMO not using horrible opaque change IDs is one of the best parts of this. If I wanted it to work like Gerrit, I would just be using Gerrit.

The needle grid reminded me of dot-matrix printers which then brought me back to hours spent with PrintShop. The similar resolution and size of this device and PrintShop graphics tickled me with retro-future visions of people sitting at an Apple II picking out tattoo designs to be printed on themselves.
