For biking and walking, could accepting data from Strava users (or other places that let you download GPS tracks), let you infer where there are sidewalks and good bike routes?

Eg if you have 20 GPS traces in an area and they all turn at one point, that’s a good place to turn. Or you can assume something has a sidewalk if many people have walked there?

If the company has to pay out pensions before shareholders in bankruptcy, that would incentivize shareholders and debt holders to push company to reduce or manage pension obligations.

So these attackers could gain access to any account with email with a domain not currently registered to a Google Workspace? This seems like a huge breach of trust. (Especially given that it gave access to outside of Google accounts).

Is there a best practice around confirming adding social login to a pre-existing account? (Like entering current password or email confirmation?)

From the article:

> In the case of the reader who shared the breach notice from Google, the imposters used the authentication bypass to associate his domain with a Workspace account. And that domain was tied to his login at several third-party services online. Indeed, the alert this reader received from Google said the unauthorized Workspace account appears to have been used to sign in to his account at Dropbox

The aughts or naughts (or aughties) are a pretty easy to understand way to refer to 2000-2009, though saying “the early aughts” is clearly more verbose than saying 2000-2003 (except that 2000-2003 looks more specific than is meant)

What is real anyways?

Title is a little misleading: looks like some people see “real” as “no AI components at all” and others as “not generated by AI”. Some countries (like Norway) have required disclaimers whenever Photoshop was used - seems like similar thing.

> As PetaPixel reported last week, Meta seems to be applying the “Made with AI” label when photographers use tools such as Adobe’s Generative AI Fill to remove objects. While Meta hasn’t clarified when it automatically applies the label, some photographers have sided with Meta’s approach, arguing that any use of AI tools should be disclosed.

Why focus on these huge planes vs lots of tiny autonomous drones? Drones seem to be the future given Ukraine and Iran fighting…

Plus Der Spiegel ironically has a pop up offering “consent to tracking” or “pay to be ad-free”

Was Redis Labs founded by Redis developers? I looked at its corporate history and was a bit confused (eg antirez seemed to be a consultant for them)

And they still didn’t restore access to the critical article! Puts the lie to it being a system error.

Totally get the desire, but also feels like last two paragraphs are solvable with

``` re.match(text).extract().rstrip(“\n”) ```

Totally agreed. I’m unclear whether eliminating this (or even all) mechanism for price fixing on rent will cause prices to drop.

Adding to that: once you’ve shown that keeping rates high while allowing greater vacancies works, no one is going to lower rates afterwards. So we are stuck with this higher rent environment.

What’s the difference between putting it in the yaml file vs putting it in the uploaded built conda package? Isn’t it the same risk profile?

Is there some way that new recipes are auto-parsed by every client?

19% of new marriages in 2019 (and likely to rise): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interracial_marriage_in_the_...

Plus, it’s still a recent change: Loving v Virginia (legalized interracial marriage across US) was decided in 1967.

Why would you use Mozilla Monitor Plus when onerep.com offers the same service for a lower cost? (And from other comments, I’d actually the same underlying service)
