>as both women and men are encouraged by Tinder to 'just swipe right' and figure out if you're compatible once you match on physical attraction.

No one's forcing you to "just swipe right", and if you're getting too many matches (esp. not-so-great ones), a rational person would become more selective with their right-swipes. Most men don't have this problem; they get very few matches.

>I get that, as a human, you do tend to see the world as more similar to yourself, but Tinder's user base is 16-34 year olds.

I completely disagree. I don't know what the actual proportions are (you'd have to get that data from Tinder), but as an early-40s male, I see absolutely no shortage of women in the 30-50 age range on there. It's not just a service for young people any more.
Without context, anybody could say the same thing about anything. Care to share more?

I personally haven't had this happen to me. I've hosted dozens of domains with gandi, under a variety of different TLDs, and can only recommend them.

Cons: Slow website. Bad UX all over the admin/purchasing interface. Feels like they're not doing anything to improve that.

One technical thing to note:

Although the application itself is not open source, the developer has open-sourced a restore tool, to help ease the "what if they go out of business" concerns:

https://github.com/sreitshamer/arq_restore

Also, somebody else has created a Go utility that can read the backup format:

https://github.com/asimihsan/arqinator

Finally, if you really wanted to do it all yourself, the data format is documented here:

In nuclear, there are many myths like "decomissioning costs are covered" or "we know how to store the waste". And there are some blatant truths like "risks like that cannot be insured against". But that's usually just accepted as a given so I guess it's fine if the article doesn't mention that one.

I think the biggest myth in the article is the one where they assume that it will have to be either fission or coal burning, pick one.
The Greeks providing us with this free giant horse statue is nothing but nice!

Microsoft has acted unethically from it's inception until just recently when they've been backed into a corner. For decades they've repeated shown that they're willing to damage the entire industry if it means that they end up with more control over it.

Why would you trust that this recent change of heart is permanent given that their hand was forced? When they start acting ethically when they don't have to - that's when I'll reconsider my position.
I don't understand how exactly this works. Can somebody explain? But it's a nice tool.

They publish a GPG key to use for this purpose, which puts them leaps and bounds ahead of most other hosting/domain providers who do identify verification.

I know it's kind of a miracle for any game to make it to the store-shelf, but I'd like to actually see a percentage at some point of how many games never make it, because I would suspect it's pretty high.
Linux servers are here to stay for a while? Linux, and Unix and BSD, run 75 to 85% of the internet so that kind of thinking is just so wrong.
That's not how this works. When a service provider detects a match, they send the file when they report the match. They don't just say "hey, some file matched this hash" and then SWAT kicks down the door, because that would be stupid. They send the file, NCMEC looks at it, and then forwards it to law enforcement who also looks at it. If it's a random file that happens to collide, NCMEC won't send it to law enforcement, and if they did, law enforcement wouldn't act on it.
I've had process issues like this with them; their CEO is responsive on email/Twitter and the email alias on this page: http://www.gandi.net/no-bullshit gets things fixed. They're not perfect, but they are quite human.
Of course they wouldn't match reality. Only reality can match the experience of being detained and violated without knowing when or if you will ever be allowed to leave.

In an early episode of Star Trek Voyager, the emergency medical hologram subjects himself to a time-limited disease program ostensibly to better understand his biologc patients' suffering, but claims to do so to demonstrate that illness is no excuse for poor productivity. When the disease afflicts him for hours after the programmed end time, he freaks out. Later, his nurse tells him she extended the time, because "the worst part about pain is not knowing when it is going to end."

Perhaps the best way to match reality is to drug the aspiring officers, stash "contraband" inside one of them, then subject all of them to the same invasive searching until the "drugs" are found. The "smuggler" then has to spend an undetermined amount of time (~1 week) in a jail (not prison, jails are for temporary holding) cell under an assumed crime in another district, as to ensure the jailers treat him or her the same way as any other criminal.
Second biggest lesson here: do not use weak passwords for emails.
Just go buy a bunch of solar panels. Even if you signed up for a Toshiba 4s, it won't be cost competitive with solar by the time its installed.

A Healthy Hatred of OOP, or the principles of my message-driven framework
An alcoholic millionaire having a shorter life expectancy than a healthy street sweeper doesn't mean there isn't a correlation between wealth and life expectancy.
> With non-renewable energy production, the situation is literally "pick your poison."

Isn't that true of renewable energy production at scale, too? Solar panels require some very nasty industrial processes to produce, wind more than decimates bird populations, tidal affects sealife and the seafloor, hydroelectric affects fish (and poorly-maintained dams can destroy cities and regions …).

I think it might actually be unavoidable: any process which generates the amount of energy required to sustain human life at scale will … be responsible for handling a huge amount of energy at scale.

I've been using Arq for years and absolutely love it. Worth every penny. It is extremely well-built software — it's FAST, doesn't hog resources, and feels very polished & reliable.

I like that I can backup to multiple destinations (AWS S3/Glacier, Dropbox, Google Drive, even my own server via SFTP). IMO you can never have too many backups.

I use it along with Backblaze (and will be setting up Time Machine & Super Duper or Carbon Copy Cloner this week, after putting it off forever).

Congrats to the Haystack team!
We know that everyone online can be a target of abuse. But I wasn't sure how balanced the abuse was. I frequently see on HN people saying "but trolls are trolls; they don't target women, they target everyone and the misogyny is just a useful troll tool to provoke reaction".

It's useful to me to see some attempt to quantify this and to get some numbers that show what the balance is.
Jeremy Huxtable made the original "Big Brother" NeWS version of eyes [1], which inspired xeyes at SIGGRAPH '88 [2], and he also made the NeWS version of melt [3], in just 30 lines of code!

My favorite OpenWindows demo was Pat Lashley's monaeyes [4], of course. And I made a fancy version of eyeball windows for The NeWS Toolkit [5] to show off its drag-n-drop and nested window management capabilities, where the eyeball was the window frame, and the iris was the client window, and you could split them in two, and even drag and drop eyes inside of each other, so that sub-eye window frame was reparented inside the moving super-eye client iris! The effect was very creepy and CPU intensive, and I could never quite talk the OPEN LOOK folks into adopting them into the standard.

>Edge cases are the ones that make or break people. Holding aside the argument for socialized or egalitarian healthcare, it's undeniable that major events in someone's life (major illness, accident, death, foreclosure etc...) are a primary factor for decrease in happiness. Since it's also undeniable that money can offset or augment the impact of these events - it is very relevant to take those into account.

Yes. Hence the media's trend of attempting to shift blame to people who have experienced edge events by deriding them as irresponsible or whatever. It's better for the serfs to think that "money can't buy happiness" and ignore that "money can prevent or mitigate common causes of unhappiness". It's also better if the serfs remain jealous of the wealthy, but not actually knowledgeable about the vastness of their wealth. If enough people consciously hold the thought which you detailed in mind, economic revolution is inevitable, and, failing that, violent revolution is probable.

I think eating fat, smoking or other kinds of addictions are a deeper symptom of depression or some other kind of a mental infinite loop from which the addiction gives you a pause.

I remember an instance in school, I asked my friend why he smoked or indulged in drinking. His answer was simply it was just not possible to go on with life without it. He had a myriad of relationships with girls, and dozen problems at home, he was a troubled kid and got into trouble often at school. A lot of what I understood- smoking gave him a pause from all that.

I would wonder poor people might be more prone to this sort of stuff due to the very obvious reasons. However this sort of addiction can happen due to various other reasons too. For eg read this: https://www.quora.com/Im-22-year-old-Indian-guy-and-I-need-y...

Even smart, intelligent people can be trapped into addictions of various kinds from which it can be hard to break out.

> Are you suggesting MS has legitimate claims to IP used in android?

Are you suggesting that MS has no legitimate claims to IP used in android? It seems to me that companies wouldn't do thee deals if there was no case to answer. It's not as though (for example) Samsung was a stranger to court action, and it's a much bigger company than Microsoft.

It's also a fact that Microsoft pioneered Unix on PCs in the early 1980s, and that Xenix was the most popular Unix of its day....

"Long before Linus Torvalds was able to write anything useful in C, there was a version of Unix from Microsoft called XENIX that was based on the seventh edition and BSD 4.1 with some interesting enhancements (multiple virtual consoles accessible via Alt-F1, Alt-F2,... Alt-F10 -- later inherited by Linux, record-locking facilities for database programming, etc) and an amazing level of PC friendliness that Linus will try emulate much later by essentially replicating all major design decisions that Microsoft put into XENIX for PC but using an independent codebase." http://www.softpanorama.org/People/Torvalds/Finland_period/x...

Its $50 one time purchase for new purchase. The upgrade from Arq 4 is $25. During store checkout, you can also choose to add a "Lifetime Upgrades" at $30 which will give you free upgrades for Arq 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 etc.
Microsoft was also fined $2 billion dollars by the EU in 2004 for anti-trust violations so it's not just the 1990s.

In addition, Microsoft was under US Federal oversight until 2011, but then had it extended another two years for failure to comply with the original court order. So let's not forget that.

Most will require a password reset email, I'd say that's significantly better than asking for ID scans.

Edit: Since I'm getting some downvotes I'd really like to know how one could possibly argue that asking for ID scans is better than email resets. You can't really forge the ability to receive email at an address, but you can very easily replace the name on an ID scan.

I am sure that a search for HARD_DRIVE_CRASH will always come up with troubleshooting tips, but I'll have to wade through 5 pages before I get to the advanced topics that I need.

I know there is an argument for making this more readable, but if you are at the level of fixing blue screens chances are you can use a search engine.

I think this is a very good point that I also overlooked when I first read the article. If someone hacked my gmail account, I honestly am not sure if there would be any account of mine that would be safe. Anyone using the Internet today has to put utmost care into protecting their email address and most email providers enable you to do that fairly easily.
There was an article here a few months ago promoting logging in via email token as the only way to log in instead using passwords. Because as you said, 99% of websites allow you to reset the password anyway if you control email, so why bother having insecure passwords? If I remember correctly then that article was fairly well received.

I had my 2FA at Singlehop bypassed by social engineering attack. They helpfully changed the entire account contact info without any notice to me, presumably from a phone call. The attacker didn't even have any information to go off other than the IP address. I only found out when I saw the server rebooting into rescue mode and luckily I still had an active management portal cookie (changing the password doesn't log you out of the portal, another big problem) so I immediately knew what was happening.

I wish there was a way to disable the "customer support backdoor" in all these kinds of services. I've started to deploy full disk encryption to all my servers now so if the attacker does manage to get into the management account the server itself is still protected from single user / rescue mode / etc.

There are risks associated with all kinds of power generation. Most of the things you list would apply to a lot of them. However, I'll attempt to address most of the ones you listed (and I'm assuming a boiling water reactor, there are alternatives that may be naturally more stable):
Modern reactors have passive cooling systems[1] which will only require an outside pool to be refilled every 72 hours (easy to automate or just drop a pipe from another location) so it could be left without power for a very long time.

Huge earthquakes which would shake a reactor apart would be strong enough to take down entire cities. A reactor going supercritical, while bad, is still less likely to kill. Furthermore, as long as the passive systems aren't completely destroyed they will still function.

Refueling is done by shutting down the reactor, so the risk is low.

Active sabotage would be difficult to accomplish because there are multiple layers of redundancy and control systems and people that would all have to be bypassed.

Construction mistakes could happen to anything, although again with multiple redundancies it doesn't matter quite as much.

Most of these issues are really boiling down to one-off incidents. Modern nuclear facilities have tons of redundancy and checks in place. Things can go south with any system, but modern nuclear facilities have a lot of layers to prevent catastrophic failure in all but the most extreme situations (situations which would cause plenty of death and destruction in general). I just think it's a little flippant to discount modern nuclear power generation because of the failings in the past when the field was still in its infancy.

The lesson here is you should always keep your own off-site backups - especially if you don't pay for a 'managed' server.
