I am curious how money received by CA from federal grants are accounted for in this analysis.

Also: her email was at no time intended for classified materials and would have had all the safeguards that are now being circumvented in place.

Every single sender and recipient (excluding bcc) was aware or could have been aware that she was not using a .gov email address and is somewhat complicit or tacitly ok with her using that server.

Occasionally previously unclassified materials can later be deemed classified, or there can be a data spill where a sender transmits classified information and recipients need to participate in deletion, investigations, etc.

I agree that her using an external server was bad but it was also in plain sight the whole time.

Feels like phishing / mass data collection effort — associate an email address with the faces of whoever is in your uploaded photo.

I can tolerate a new UX based in feedback and reasonable design principles even if annoying to rebuild muscle memory, however now things like controlling volume are slow and glitchy and even worse, the music cuts out sporadically leading to a poor listening experience.

The tri-motor 500 mile range was probably the aspect that I found most exciting, seeing that removed hurts as well.

Will the member rebate be given this year? I would gladly forgo mine.

Why is it so bad in OH, USA then? Absolute rubbish, they can’t or won’t come close to good. It’s cheap wine that can’t be paired with anything. Objectively , what are the steps they need to take to blindly pass for good?

We wanted a moon base, but all we got was a lunar time zone.

Good article on what's possible and how to do it, but is row level security scalable in any way for a production application? Not so much on the performance impact of any one query but maintaining the definition of what a role can or can't do (if a db user = an application role). It also seems like it would complicate managing db connections as well, separate pools for each db user? If you have 10 roles, you have to open up at least 10 connections to avoid connection opening latency.

Leveraging most RDBMS security features seem to be geared for an ever shrinking set of use cases where a mostly static set of users are given direct access to a SQL prompt, or a simple record to GUI application interface.

Funded by SV, vision alignment with SV which is probably more important than where it’s made. However it is certainly impressive that they’re making a lot of progress in a tropical latitude, a feat that hasn’t been replicated by many successful tech companies.

Unfortunately a lot of mailed chicks die along the way, ignoring other aspects of factory farming, it’s a pretty cruel way to transport animals.

Maybe in the minority , but I think the UX of the mobile app is fantastic: * attractive card view * good actions from the list * good actions from the comments view * great performance

They need a week long grace period to get as much back as possible , this is more helpful than pure punishment.
