Not multiple Presidential elections, possibly not even one Presidential election. A glitch which briefly existed between June 2023 - June 2024, before that Presidential election.
No they didn't allow 6,600 to vote, in NJ. The article says that: "and nearly 400 cast ballots". Not 6,600. Due to a glitch which briefly existed between June 2023 - June 2024, which will be investigated and was already fixed.
And the article acknowledged they clearly clicked that they were noncitizens and not eligible to vote. Hence it was not intentional. Hence it's pretty obvious you would never have gotten anything near 6600 voting. And again, the glitch was fixed in June 2024, before the Presidential election.

Sounds like good fodder for a videogame though...
"Bad air quality warnings this week in ten US states" is the underlying headline.
Please don't quote the Daily Mail, it's notorious.
That seems irrelevant. The most commonly used ID document for many things in the US is a driver's license; it's issued by the states, not federal govt, so what.
Similarly you could argue that addresses and zip codes are assigned by the USPS not directly by the federal govt, so what.
Combine this with date-of-birth and phone no. and you have a very small set of sufficiently near-unique identifiers (even if that wasn't the intent of the SSN).
One big mistake was not to legislate (at any point between the 1930s and 1980s) to criminalize third parties from using the SSN as unique identifier, as is done by other countries.
Imagine if the East German Stasi had merely outsourced surveillance to data brokers and credit bureaux - different regime, same effect.
I meant online. Lower-value types of fraud, like e-commerce, prepaid mobile phone bills.
So what prevents people applying for loans or doing identity theft, in other countries?
No, the title only links to https://arstechnica.com/ . That's why I posted the right link for you.
Well, that combined with the expectation that the recipient would also try that daily challenge, then presumably respond with comment/message/reshare comparing how they did.
You didn't post the article link, it's:

Users cry foul after AMD stripped memory crypto from its consumer CPUs
AMD’s stripping of TSME from consumer CPUs appears to be a deliberate, covert move.
Sounds interesting. FYI I had to vouch this comment because it got killed.
The funding comes from a consortium of investors led by Jeff Bezos, with participation from several large sovereign wealth funds.
Ok. FYI that comment got auto-deleted too, I had to vouch it to undelete it. You might need to email HN moderation after you start adding your affiliation to your posts, else they'll keep getting auto-deleted immediately.
Brilliant

The Doolittle Raiders actually flew B-25Bs 2600 miles, they didn't hitch a ride on a Japanese cargo ship, though. Spiderweb maybe more resembles the 2024 Lebanon pager attack than the Doolittle Raid.
Sure it was a huge shock to Russia but clearly was a once-off, and required undercover Ukrainian operatives to assemble the smuggled drone parts near the Ukrainian or Kazakh borders, and Russian truckers to unwittingly move containers. All of that operation was revealed and probably can not be repeated; the operatives were evacuated.
It put the Russians on notice that they weren't safe. Not that the Russians care, but most countries would.
Well there was no GSM jamming near sensitive Russian sites but there is now, and that seems to be annoying Russian civilians intensely, along with internet blocking.
"Really?"
Remember in 2017 when 'Hamilton' was the hot thing, and companies emerged with dubious business models about industrial-scale scalping and reselling tickets? This is why we have (/used to have) regulators.

You have to declare your affiliation with Spidra in your posts (are you an affiliate? marketing? employee?), to follow HN guidelines, and be neutral with criticisms. Otherwise your threads are getting killed.
If you did that, your content looks decent to me.
If you mean Operation Spiderweb, the Ukrainian Osa drone only had a range of 5 miles/ 8km (one-way) and had to be launched from the roof of containers simultaneously transported unknowingly by Russian truckers and that was a covert operation that took 18 months to set up. So no that particular model couldn't attack even 10 miles away.
Ukraine has other long-range strike drones but haven't heard of more than a thousand miles range.

You don't understand the context: the issue was not that the pharmacy software somehow innocently can't (automatically) find a pharmacy farther than 25 miles away from the current location. It was specifically CVS prevented this since 2023 arising from their opioid settlement, to prevent "pharmacy-shopping", and to comply with with "Good faith dispensing" legal requirement under the federal Controlled Substances Act (insulin is a non-controlled prescription medication but the PBMs and pharmacies seem to widely apply these restrictions on search (and prescription transfer), which seems silly). Here's [0] one 2024 article (from RI, but whatever) listing all the new controls they imposed on pharmacists and doctors (among other things, transferring prescriptions across state boundaries triggers alarms). As you read this insanity, remember that the Purdue Pharma execs convicted didn't go to prison [1], at most got 400 hours of community service + fines. The Sackler family were still sponsoring the NY Metropolitan until 2019, and none of them were even criminally charged. Anyway, there's your root-cause. It should not affect insulin or other things but clearly the knock-on effect is it does.

"him wot worked on" is just British English slang for "the guy who worked on"
If you got to that point it's just a formality, and unless you somehow blow it the job is (probably) already yours, if you decide you still want it. You seem to have jumped to unwarranted assumptions about the company culture; quite possibly the CEO does want to make sure the culture is good and remains good. It's not necessarily a binary test of whether the CEO can't trust delegating to their managers; it's also your constructive opportunity to use that conversation to get more insight into where the company, strategy, product/service, customers etc. are going. A good question to ask the CEO is about the broader impact of your role: that should get you some useful insight, also you compare the delta between what the CEO says vs what the senior managers said vs what the recruiter said; they don't need to be identical but they should broadly agree, and it shouldn't reveal any fundamental disagreements or ambiguities (e.g. "your role is incremental support of product X" vs "totally rewrite it in language Y in the next 9 months"). Listening to their response should also give you subtle behavioral cues about who in the company does/doesn't have influence, credibility and where the pain points are: you can't generally get that from the previous interviews, and it can be a faux pas to explicitly ask.
(PS: if you find reasons to suspect the CEO isn't delegating effectively to managers, then ask the CEO an open-ended question "How much do you do yourself vs which tasks do you delegate to your managers?" then listen carefully to their answer. And it's still not necessarily a red flag, it may just be a new or inexperienced CEO, or maybe overcompensating for one or two bad hire experiences at current or previous company. Compare to their answer to "How do you assess new hires within the first 90 days?").
The only (minor) negative I'd take from this is that it still behaves like a small startup scaling quickly, and they haven't yet figured out how to to scale interviewing and hiring for when they get larger... but that's overall a good complaint, it shows they're still growing. It's much better that your signoff interview is with the CXO (or VP) than the Director of HR, or an AI bot. Honestly I'd pay more attention to how many days/weeks/months it takes them to make the hiring decision than how many management layers were involved; that's a bigger tell of organizational dysfunction.
Don't overthink.
No, Austria doesn't forbid using (or even having installed) a video camera in your car, in itself.
But they do forbid RECORDING and PUBLISHING (e.g. on social media) videos where a SPECIFIC car (identifiable by the license plates) is visible, or SPECIFIC people (must fuzz them, and maybe edit out voices). Per their DPA's interpretation of data privacy; not the police. The best writeup I found is by Amazing_Bluebird_ at [0a].
(I see some conflicting reports where the Austrian *data protection authority (not the police) gave people civil fines (not tickets) just for having a camera. Sounds like those can be overturned by appealing.
I wonder how Austrian Teslas handle all this. Apparently Tesla Sentry Mode ("Guardian Mode") in public spaces in Austria is heavily restricted and generally considered illegal under GDPR.
