Are they serious???

- Vulnerable to POODLE
- too short HSTS value
- RC4
- SSL3

"maybe they need to support ancient broken browsers"

EDIT: As only Chrome is supported, RC4 & SSL3 are moot.
OK found an explanation here: [1]

"What protocol is used in Whatsapp app? SSL socket to the WhatsApp server pools. All messages are queued on the server until the client reconnects to retrieve the messages. The successful retrieval of a message is sent back to the whatsapp server which forwards this status back to the original sender (which will see that as a "checkmark" icon next to the message). Messages are wiped from the server memory as soon as the client has accepted the message"

Unless neurogenesis can be triggered in such a way that new neurons develop and migrate along the normal routes, once the disruption is removed.

Therapy to encourage new synapse development could also help, once any morphology-disrupting factor is removed.
What's funny about this is that you can go on Amazon right now and buy something like this.

it's not an original idea by ANY means. Pure execution. And people love it.
I absolutely love watches, but I can't stand having anything on my wrist for more than a few minutes. Must be over-sensitized from typing all day for my entire adult life.
I advise everybody to not mess with anything written in red.
What were the reasons for you to use the JS version of Box2D instad of the native version (with bindings)? In my experience, the native version runs just fine on low-end Android devices and the iPad 1.
It would be more practical to go live where cops aren't raiding houses all the time.

I wonder why DPR wasn't living in some tropical riviera instead of the US.
Tor does not work in China. You can't enter the network.
You need something called "bridges". You have to send an email to get IP addresses of "entry points". If I remember right, you had to have an gmail email address to receive them. I never worked for me.
This is interesting for GoPro (good client, huge promo), the fans (great new angles, different perspectives), but I like to see this as big upgrade for the NHL and the players too, as they rely more and more on cameras to enforce the rulebook, review plays, rewatch sequences, etc.. For example:

- Illegal & dangerous checks often come with a suspension, which is always dished out after video evidence is reviewed by the department of player safety
- It's very common for goals to get reviewed in-game to check whether there was goalie interference, high stick, kicked in, etc.
- All players watch countless hours of video during a week to improve their game and study their opponents (ex: shootout moves)

All in all, more power to the referees, more power to the coaches/players = better, safer, more entertaining hockey, IMO.
It adds a lot of complexity and therefore cost unless you don't care about testing.
I think that we should be able to test this in a simulation.

I think the crux of the idea is that if a group of people stop fighting for a bit amongst themselves and instead wipe out another group, then the other group will no longer reproduce.

Any mechanism to allows this to happen more effectively will reproduce itself. Tribal thinking is supposedly one such mechanism. So genes/culture that will promote tribalism are selected for to some extent.

Human history seems to be the natural history of this.
I grew up in that milieu, Canal street in New York and Yomge street in Toronto. Packed with all manner of parts, radio receivers and transmitters - all sold by the ton for pennies on the dollar. Commercially made parts were far more expensive at retail, so we bought and gutted all this WW2 stuff, removing resistors, capacitors sockets dials etc etc, and we used this stuff to make our stuff. Then along came heatkit.
Now the best source for stuff is adafruit or aliexpress. Same parts, but China via Aliexpress take 6 weeks, adafruit costs more but they deliver within a week or less.
There are a few parts places here and there, creatron in Toronto, and Surplustronics in Toronto. I do not know what JDR micro in the SanFrancisco area supplies now, or BG Micro in Garland Texas - both excellent surplus suppliers along with new stuff
Bitcoin the technology is interesting, in so far as it has inspired new technology that is more useful or less wasteful. Bitcoin the asset is pretty terrible for anything besides speculation.
How much credibility do you put in Amazon's?
What a nice idea, wish we had something like this in Germany - not digging on websites but a tax receipt.
Do y'all just like, ignore SLO's? Cloud SQL has a 99.95% SLO, going down for multiple minutes every month is within that. No smoke and mirrors here, there are ways to mitigate it but it's not Google messing around with expectations. HA doesn't mean 100% uptime.
We didn't "go hard on" Microsoft for mere bundling of basic tools like media viewers and web browsers. It was because they were using that dominant position (which is perfectly fine to have) to behave anticompetitively (which is not).
Interestingly enough, as someone with both Bloomberg terminal and FactSet subscriptions, I still don't have real-time market data for most asset classes and securities. Those are actually add-on costs that I don't need for my research (I'm not a trader). The value for me (again not a trader) comes from having 25 years of robust fundamental and market data along with powerful portfolio analysis tools and models.
> Imagine if a company the size of Amazon had a breach?

Is it hard to imagine? Does it really matter anymore? There are [non-Amazon] breaches every few years with 100m+ records.

It will happen and people will be shocked and outraged and then it will happen again. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Did you seriously just waltz in here and plop down a brietbart.com link.
Found them on the local Ruby meetup mailing lists. It's a pretty good place to look, at least for Rails jobs.
And...and... MySql didn't get anywhere competing with Oralce or SAP dammnit!
It doesn't even have to be an ISP, you get pretty much get the same with most technical support lines on any computer-related product.
Exactly. Or shivs, which turn up now and again.
Most of the youtube app servers are all written in python. Whether one considers this glue code is a philosophical question.
I'm glad that at least they'd offer 720p as "non-HD", it's not too bad compared to YouTube’s 360p default in Safari iOS. Heck 720p is the limit there.
The initial comment claimed internet search as the monopoly, and that's what I responded to. Also, try to be civil to avoid degrading the level of discussion.

If you want to talk about search ads, sure, maybe Google Search has a monopoly on search ads. If they do it doesn't seem like they wield that monopoly power to dictate prices, given that search ad slots are mainly auctioned to the highest bidder. And even if they do, so what? Businesses are not consumers, and claims that Google scalping advertisers negatively impacts consumers rely on indirect circuitous reasoning.
Around the 8 and 9 min mark RMS talks about old hardware losing software support, like 32 bit systems. I am a kernel developer and the kernel removes code for a lot of older systems all the time (often lesser known 32bit ARM systems).

Phoronix reported that 5.18 removed the Andes NDS32 CPU arch code. https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux-51...

The reason they do this is because a lot of these systems can break as the internal kAPIs change all the time and the users will not know since the embedded custom distro of software + kernel is not upgraded. Support can be broken for these arches for years until someone gets these systems second hand and posts about them, but may not care to fix it or it is cheaper to replace it.

RMS calls this a major issue, specifically 32-bit support in Ubuntu. I do not agree. My last 32 bit computer died a long time ago after the battery died years ago. It was a Gateway so getting replacement parts would be difficult. I also was never able to get it to run Linux. Aside from my brother-in-law finding his old laptop no one I know uses 32 bit computers (well except for myself with my Pi Zero: ARM v6, which I used once).

It just feels like the wrong battle to pick when Linux's biggest competitor is forcing practically all PCs to use a bootloader signed with their key. Major vendors can choose to refuse to allow users to install their own key. They are already locking CPUs (Ryzens) to their brand of motherboards with a builtin fuse provided by AMD. He of course talks about it-it just feels like the 32 bit part distracts from it.
Unfortunately some of the nastier vendors (gyms are notorious for doing this) will then send the charge to collections, resulting in a worse outcome. Further, credit card companies will likely reject your chargeback before it even gets to this stage since they require evidence that one tried a good faith attempt to cancel.
It's why despite constantly being asked to interview at FANG I don't, as I just don't feel like dealing with that kind of stress. I prefer to stagnante to being obsolete where I am.

I saved up enough that I paid off my house and I opened a bar. I just don't have the heart for the /r/iamverysmart crowd, that always paints themselves into the same corners because "neat and new", or dealing with more political crap where the customer is never a thought in their equation
Well, Zig hasn't been numerous. If you do a search on Rust and Zig you will see Rust submission is something like 10-20:1 ratio with headline going at 3-5:1 within one month period. But yes zig is getting some traction on HN. (I have been tracking it ever since Rust people complain about the number of Zig submissions. )

And HN has a hatred for Vlang because arguably it start off in the wrong foot with too many over promising features. I thought we should give Vlang some benefits of doubt. Instead HN simply shoot down all Vlang submission. And it only takes a few people flagging it for it to disappeared from the front page. Yes I dont think it is fair. I wish we can all submit some obscure, unknown programming language to the front page. Unfortunately I am not sure what the solution to that would be, may be email @dang about it?
From a trademark perspective, that is exactly how it works:
https://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/laws/dates-use-1

From a "I can only have one cli alias to q" perspective, then I am sticking with SQL "q" cmd, b/c its more useful and I have been using it longer than this one.
> Maps → Apple maps

If Apple were a different company, it would've made maps available for use on web browsers and non-Apple devices. That could also help in a more rapid improvement of maps as opposed to the mostly-useless state it's been in (except for a few countries and regions in certain countries that Apple likes and works more on).

> and still a little YouTube (anonymously in a Firefox container)

If a Firefox Container is an option, then I'd rather prefer Startpage to DDG for search. Most of the time, I end up performing the search on DDG at least twice (the second time with a bang command to go to Startpage or Google) or I have a heuristic that DDG won't help and just go to the other search engines.

> DNS → Cloudflare DNS

Others to consider are Quad9 (9.9.9.9) and NextDNS (if you want ad and tracker blocking lists to be configured at the DNS level, sorta like a Pi-Hole, but on the cloud).

> I feel like I've won a lot by doing all this. I own my data now, so Google can't arbitrarily take it away from me, which gives me peace of mind. I'm no longer part of their ad ecosystem, being tracked all around the internet and having my attention sold to the highest bidder.

The "Google can't arbitrarily take it away" is a good argument, but "I'm no longer part of their ad ecosystem, being tracked all around the internet" requires a lot more effort than just avoiding using google.com, youtube.com, gmail.com, etc. I'm not saying that the current transitions are useless, but that there's more to it.
If you want to implement an interpreter for a small language, in my experience, it is better to compile it to create an Abstract Syntax Tree with an eval function. I have tried this approach in my Crystal Edit MySample clone with extended functionality. The build in script can be used to manipulate images. The scripting language has no functions and procedures, but for image manipulation scripts, this is usually no big deal. See more details, source code and example script (in the entries of my blog): http://www.iwriteiam.nl/MySample.html
ID.me does not have a monopoly on former military in the IDV space. Understand that lots of former military have clearance, relationships, etc., but does not explain the success of such a low quality solution being this ubiquitous in government at both the state and local level.
No wonder as the left are insincere people by definition and as such, they don't buy into anyone's apology, which they always find fishy!
The filesystem concept has changed a lot over the decades so that's really not surprising. Almost any platform young people are using is going to have a UI abstraction over the storage that typically pre-groups files by the handling application or expect the user to search a potentially off-device storage pool like Google Drive or iCloud or Sharepoint or whatever via full text and metadata.

I certainly wouldn't expect anyone born after about 1980 to have dealt with VMS filesystem concepts or various mainframe record storages, and it would likely be very difficult for today's students to synthesize the reasoning behind the Windows "drive letter" concept without hitting wikipedia to read up on why that trainwreck is still around.
This is the right approach! If everyone decides to stay silent it will only make more companies adopt this.

The shit needs to be called out!
This is hyperbole. Removing loopholes and taxing the top 5% more will not destroy society. Just like taxing the middle class didn't make them stop working, or made them work shitty jobs just to not pay taxes.
Yes, unison does require that you have matching versions on both ends of the synchronisation.

Fortunately, installing unison can be done quite easily without root access. On my synology, I simply downloaded the arch linux arm packages and extracted the 2.48.3 binaries from there. Because the packages in Ubuntu 14.04 are outdated, I extracted the binaries from the arm linux x86_64 packages for my laptops. For MacOS, there are downloadable 2.48 binaries that also work out of the box.
That contest should have been announced for the bragging rights alone.
Thank you! I will look into it, although there is an updated statement saying someone is already working on it.
I can smell recursion. :)
Never mind six months from now - if you're thinking native app, then you've got a particular set of phones in mind. Take a look at the state of the browser on them now.
Above all, I believe that gifted children need good parenting. It seems to be a common theme with young achievers that they burn out quickly and become disillusioned or full of reject. It's always disturbing to see 12 year old pop stars on TV whose parents have chosen to keep the kids out of school, 14 year old college freshmen and other "prodigies".

I could not be happier that my parents did not let me skip grades. There was a kid in my class who was three years younger than everybody else in the grade in high school and needless to say he could not associate with us at all, and it's not like we didn't try.

Sure, I could have finished studies a little earlier, but the defining moments of my teenage years are those spent with my friends, not what the rest of society would deem as worthy achievements.
This seems to be a growing trend with government intervention. Likely it is a byproduct of ill informed decisions that given perverse incentives. Consider workers who actually reject pay raises because they would lose more in benefits than the pay raise would give them.
Correct, however the author is saying that there's no reason to ever use tail unless you're tailing multiple files, which is false. Most of the functionality you want is already built into your terminal emulator. If you want slower updates (`less` uses 1 second polling, vs `tail` [inotify]), and the ability to search, by all means, use `less`.
It turns out one of them was probably on Ulbricht's payroll:

The Fed stopped buying Treasuries in November of last year and since that time long-term rates (both real and nominal) have fallen.

I think there's a golf game that could be made from these type of real world puzzles.

I would search for "2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019", select everything that shows up in the search results, and copy those to the USB. Wonder what I'd do with millions of files though.
The general deployment story with elixir leaves a lot to be desired. I hope this is one of the things that you guys are planning to be chatty about! We currently use edeliver and it just feels clunky.

I’d love to just push a branch and type flyctl scale and stuff just ends up being clustered. (That’s probably already supported?).

Actually, I’m going to use fly for a couple of our projects. Just realized it. We’re tired of Linode and were prepping to move it all to AWS but I wasn’t looking forward to the devops maintenance for how small the projects currently are.

I actually would love to build an FaaS on top of elixir for our product, that’s ending up accidentally having low-code elements in it. The process isolation you get for nearly free seems like a no brainer for such a platform.

Another potential would be hosting Wordpress.

Having great tutorials for these use cases will be killer.
I like cli for navigating directories, and finding and moving files. Using a graphical file manager feels clunky to me. I do use a gui for other things, like I finally switched from vim to vscode, but file management has always felt more natural in the cli.
How big of a delay are you okay with on your security patches?

Every hop from the top level distro adds.
Can you explain more clearly what you mean?

Why does the order of commands or their names have any influence on whether pipes can be used? How do you pipe the output of cp into awk?
The very first example skips a step, cd into the directory.
if there was more agreement anything we had was genuinely good i might allow it, but atm it's pretty clear there is much work to do, none of it is lock on solid yet. so many differing approaches are necessary.

I also think you've struggle to name a dozen commonly popular authorizers.
you can set it up that way if you prefer, there is a resume= kernel param you can set to a separate file or device. I keep them combined tho because I hardly ever use much swap, and don't have a ton of disk, and if hibernation ever did fail, I can just close some tabs and be fine
And to emphasize, semiconductor manufacturing has a lot of toxic chemistry along the way.
jQuery and Javascript Promises comes to mind, I know they started in C++ put they are practically Monads.
And that's not taking into account the "not significant" overhead added to the remaining 60%.
Well, Haskell is number 49 of 50 on the current Tiobe Index.
I didn't see where he says "don't sell to them, sell to the organizations that sell to them". There's an entire ecosystem of resellers/VARs/distributors/etc that, for a cut, will shield you from many of the issues you'll face in the Gov or Enterprise world.

For example, I've been "sold" as a consultant via a government subcontractor(1) that took care of bidding, billing, contracts and renewals, etc and simply paid me the rate I asked for. Similarly, I've had products that a distributor took on and did all the legwork to get on the GSA lists so all we had to do was fulfillment and support. They would even structure the financials such that it met whatever DOA requirement the end customer needed, but paid us up front.

(1) FWIW, the entity that subcontracted me was another small biz that was taking advantage of the "8A" category of small business set asides. If you fit in one of the categories, it might be an option as well. This is obviously a US-centric option.

> (...) and then __urging the protesters to go home peacefully, preserve law and order, etc__.

Considering the way Trump, during his infamous Georgia phone call, fell back to weasel words to allow him to claim plausible deniability, such stating that "in my opinion they are shredding votes" after fellow Republicans made it very clear that there was absolutely no doubt that no vote was shredded... Those statements sound like nothing more than further weasel words to allow him to weasel himself out of any responsibility for his own actions.
Outlier here. Never used Facebook. Never used WhatsApp. Family communicates with me by email, or SMS.
> That may be a good motivator, but it's not true.

Technically, maybe not, but do the semantics really matter here?
He's likely talking about trading circuit breakers which trigger when the market is down a substantial percentage in a short time. Trading is suspended for a period
Seems like you want vim or emacs?

Why is more tools a problem?

> but you'll always be scurrying to the TV's original remove for anything beyond on/off, or changing the volume

I'm not sure how long it's been since I've done anything other than volume, on/off, or source switch on the TV, but I think it's measured in years.
The prevalence of 5 1/4" drives in 80's home computers appears to have been very regional. In Europe they seem to have been very rare and as you stated most home users utilized cassette tape storage. At the time 5 1/4" drives were less expensive in the US and US households had significantly higher median incomes than those in many parts of Europe which led to much wider adoption of floppy drives in the US.

In the 80's we had three family computers with 5 1/4" drives. A TRS-80 Model I, IBM PC XT and near the end of the 80's a Gateway 386 system. I believe the 386 system also included a 3 1/2" drive.

In addition I had my own Commodore 64 with a 5 1/4" floppy. All of my friends, which was a decent number, who had a C64 also had floppies. If you went into a store there was little to no software available on tape for any systems with the exception of Radio Shacks where they had tape based software for Tandy Coco's which were not particularly popular systems.
