Iteration is not the Yang it is bloat. There is no such thing as iteration, only head and tail recursion. May we pray to God for forgiveness from our sins.
Enabling third-party testing and comparisons.New laws should also require that providers of commercial facial recognition services enable third parties engaged in independent testing to conduct and publish reasonable tests of their facial recognition services for accuracy and unfair bias. A sensible approach is to require tech companies that make their facial recognition services accessible using the internet also make available an application programming interface or other technical capability suitable for this purpose.
Does anyone else find this interesting? Is Microsoft trying to keep their facial recognition algorithm on top by comparing their's to others'?
Does anyone else find it amazing that these days social media posts are becoming official government documentation? Who would've thought that the very platforms where we once just shared pictures of cats are starting to run our our elections and stock markets.
> 13. On November 5, 2013, Tesla publicly filed a Form 8-K with the Commission stating that it intended to use Musk’s Twitter account as a means of announcing material information to the public about Tesla and its products and services and has encouraged investors to review the information about Tesla published by Musk via his Twitter account.

I do not understand why he did not hire a PR firm to run his Twitter given the high stakes of each of his tweets. This is really bad judgement on his part.
That might be technical protection, however the way the SEC gets access to mails is not on a technical level, but by sending out a letter "please send us all your mails on that topic" and if the response on such a request is not convincingly consistent you get into even more trouble.
This. At Toyota corporate, we had a meeting with a lawyer and the lawyer instructed in the event of an investigation (e.g. bad floor mats), provide all of the emails and documents. Make everything easily searchable, and keep emails for 3-4 years. People think that hiding evidence from your lawyer makes things better but according to the lawyer, it actually hurts the case by not being able to have information. So save everything! The Toyota I.T. department must’ve heard something different because outlook now erases all emails older than 90 days.
Your IT department probably is likely to follow a document retention policy relating to archiving emails (an archive you don't get access to).
Your document retention policy should be included in your onboarding training and accessible to all staff, not doing this would cause all kinds of compliance problems.
The SEC is not going after protonmail, but your company. They use legal powers against you. They don't care about technicalities. (Except on the delivery channel for the Gigabytes of data) If you don't comply, they put charges on you.
I think it's odd that these powerful technologies are not taken more seriously and incorporated into society more quickly. It just shows how slowly society thinks and adjusts.
I've played around with the TIC-80 and I gotta say that the development environment is something that is enjoyable for small projects but larger projects are a headache.
I like the 'batteries included' aspect of it; I wish more 'for practical use' development systems had that. The fact that you can package the result for different platforms, makes it interesting for trying out game mechanics on the go and distributing them inside small games. The style it was made in works on low res, small screens, so programming on small devices (small (cheap) Android tablets, GPD Pocket(high res but small screen), Pandora, Pyra etc) is ok.
The last "practical" environment that was really batteries included, as far as I can tell, was Macromedia Flash. It lives on as Haxe, the FlashDevelop IDE feels like a blast from the past (it feels so lightweight!) and it supports quite a few platforms (web, mobile, etc). But it's awfully niche now.
Per the Itch.io page, you can use the $5 premium version which has features like saving as text and allowing you to edit in an external editor, which might help. Pico-8 has this by default, and can definitely confirm it would be awful to try and code a whole game in the built-in editor.
I think this is another case of "your not really supposed to...but it works ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"
For your first point, I think it depends on your usage scenario. With a big company that requires good performance to satisfy their users, like Netflix, having multiple regions is a given. But what the article probably missed is that they also most likely use AZs within the same region to mitigate failures, but since they have multiple regions at hand why not use them to mitigate failures as well? And their monthly tests are a simulation of a worst case scenario if an entire region goes down.
As for autoscaling I also think that people think of it as a magic solution. More users? Autoscale. Zone down? Autoscale. But the problem arises when they think that it's instant because it isn't. Things have to happen behind the scenes, but for many people, they only care about what happens on stage, so for them configuring autoscale is just better because it's easier than load balancing on 3 different AZs.
