12v battery bluetooth monitor was a great, cheap addition to my previous car. Not sure why something like that hasn't been built in for decades.

"And he paid for, at least in part, a drone and explosives to be used as a weapon of mass destruction to commit an attack," investigators said in the federal affidavit.

What's "mass" about one drone? Is this just language to bring different legalities to bear?

Here he is:

What a mom, just reassuring her daughter the whole time.

I've been donating to Democracy Forward, who is suing people around the clock.

How do hydraulics work on things like this? Is it as simple as an electric fluid pump?

If you haven't played with Pulumi (for configuring cloud services) and Ansible (for local services, shell commands, apt installs etc) you may enjoy them as a way to capture / re-apply configuration.

 

Jewish students chained themselves to gates at Columbia University Wednesday in support of Mahmoud Khalil, the former Columbia student protest leader now in an ICE jail in Louisiana. On March 8th, federal agents detained Khalil at his university-owned apartment building, even though he’s a legal permanent resident of the United States. They revoked his green card.

Video of the abduction. Good on the people of Boston for shouting them down in the street. Looks like some ICE goons without masks this time.

Thanks. Pleasantly surprised that there are not too many ALPRs nearby me according to deflock.me. I was thinking, though, what about privately owned ALPRs to track known enforcement vehicles. I didn't know what laws come into play there (or what unequal enforcement). The photos on the article do look high quality though, definitely beyond a Pi camera board pointed out a window. OTOH tagging "purple bumper sticker" or "bike rack" honestly doesn't sound that far beyond OpenCV or AI tools these days.

What's the camera technology like? Is a distributed citizen-owned network to watch the watchers feasible?

Description of ICE training and practices, including:

What this means is that ICE cannot enter a home without a judicial warrant (a warrant signed by a judge) or voluntary permission (consent) from an authorized adult. They almost never have a judicial warrant and therefore need consent to legally enter your home. ICE agents uses ruses as a way to get inside homes without identifying that they are ICE.

It's not clear to me if "resisting arrest" is a thing with ICE.

I do do interviews too. It's a lot of time and work. A well designed interview can and should be a realistic, rewarding problem solving session where you get to try out collaboration with potential colleagues.

Cheating leetcode interviews with AI doesn't seem that innovative to me, just adding dishonesty to a broken practice. Destruction is always easier than creation.

Also, as someone who frequently designs and runs SW interviews, it's totally possible to run interviews that test actually important SW skills like OO design, error handling, and using APIs, which AIs still fail handily.

If you want to do something cool, make an AI to refactor your codebase for maintainability and security.
