It's storing the files in the repository which has a file size limit of 100MB. I think the repositories themselves have a soft limit of 5GB and a hard limit of 100GB.
This makes it sound like the core team has abandoned the open source Snorkel project to work exclusively on closed source Snorkel Flow. Is that correct?
In 2015 I was targeted by scammers who claimed to be from Microsoft and said that I had a virus on my Dell computer. Another graduate student had originally registered the computer with Dell technical support. When the hard drive failed I updated the phone number, but I had overlooked updating the name in the contact info. When the scammers called me they addressed me by the name of the other grad student. I tried to report this breach to Dell at the time, but I didn't get anywhere. Seeing this news reminded me of the incident and I searched to see if Dell had disclosed the breach. I found a few articles from early 2016 where others were reporting similar experiences but Dell was not admitting at that time that they had experienced a breach [1-3]. In May 2016 Dell still claimed that they had "no indication that customer information used in the scams has been obtained through an external attack" [4]. Does anyone know if they ever admitted to the breach? They ought to be sanctioned as well if they failed to disclose.
I found a couple Hacker News threads related to this breach [1,2]. Did anyone end up reporting it to the FTC? I just filed a tip with the SEC. Curious to see if they follow up.
Somebody got my information from somewhere - I have no clue, and tried to target me with the Microsoft Support scam. It was hilarious, and I wrote about my own experience[1], but I do wonder how many unsuspecting folks fall prey to it. :(
They're possibly telling the truth. Maybe they weren't breached. They may have just sold their customer list to to one of their "marketing partners" who was either breached or are the crooked actors themselves.
I did a deep dive into the WashPo 2015 and 2016 datasets which are more both more recent and complete than the FBI datasource used by propublica. Further, you can actually inspect in detail the circumstances in which the shooting took place, including whether or not the deceased were armed.
I'm not certain about the figures for wealth mobility, but intergenerational income mobility is already worse in the United States than in Europe and has been for some time.
Perhaps you shouldn't comment when you haven't read the post then. If you had, you would have learned that Lindert and Williamson's analysis did account for the income of slaves. Five of the eighteen paragraphs of this short article about their work discusses that part of the analysis.
