I agree you should be aboveboard
While I agree, I don't throw out the possibility of the unexplained. My mother worked for a Lester Sumerall for a brief period as a secretary (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lester_Sumrall). A small child (I don't recall the gender) was brought to him for an exorcism. The child threw itself against the walls. Screamed. Made other terrible noises. Generally violent. My mother told me she said aloud to no one in particular, "I think I'll get my lunch now" and left. She didn't watch the outcome. Could be a violent psychosis. Could be an actual demon. Either way, I agree: time to get a lunch.
Sorry about that. It's been a while, I'll reread the document you suggest.
Why is it so hard to work with? There is a module creation tool, and you can use c++ or Python. The QT gui works well.
This is very cool. I have been programming since the mid 1960s (took an extension course at a local college when I was in high school) and except for a few work projects, I have not really touched hardware projects. I might give SDR a try.

Does anyone know how the quality of SDR compares to buying short wave, etc. Radios?
I love watching his videos, but it seems like his talent is wasted on fixing commodity devices at component level -- still makes sense for some devices in current production, but this seems like it would be much more interesting for reversing, commercial/industrial devices out of production, sensitive devices which can't leave secure facilities, etc.
At 300+ pages the compile time became an issue. We started to build very custom layouts that didn't necessarily lend themselves to a typical CMS. On top of that we trasitioned our core marketing content to hubspot, while our highly directed pages remained static.
At this point why not just have a Linux system on your local network and connect with VNC from Windows...? You can have a Linux environment to hack around in while getting to use all the "nice" Windows GUI apps.
Then rationally no one would do it, right? And U.S border protection wouldn't need to enforce anti-dumping tariffs.

I think you're accounting only for first-order effects and ignoring costs to reboot industries that have been shut down.

EDIT: To clarify, I think your position is logically consistent and my guess is that you'd explain WTO actions / anti dumping enforcement as regulatory capture and protectionism.
Why You Should Try tmux Instead of screen
I've been pondering this recently.

Does your setup (easily) allow for things like untrusted IoT powerpoints/lights on the untrusted network to be controlled by their regular apps running on a phone hooked to the trusted network?

I haven't quite worked out a simple-but-correct solution for that at my place yet.

I have come up with a concept of "any device who's software I'm not actively updating and managing for security shouldn't be on the same network as my backup NAS". That includes not just IoT crap, but my original (cant upgrade past iOS5) iPad, my printer, my 3D printer's Windows machine, most of my Raspberry Pis, and friends and family's phones/tablets/laptops...
I'm assuming that was supposed to be 'wrong' part of the country.
The article makes good points but if that isn't the most awkward title...
You can get RTL dongles to cover VHF and higher for $20, and probably $40 for a HF up-converter. 8 bits at 2Msps. Quality is not great, but it's cheap. Next up is probably an Airspy for $200 or less, which is I believe 12 bits at 10 Msps. Next up is 14 bits at 60 Msps for $300 - $600, such as Ettus B200. Finally 200 Msps for a few $k.

Though if you want to receive HF, best quality is from direct sampling hardware, so close to $1k.

I propose a new project: lessutils.
You post about some program that you use for some simple task that's not among the "standard UNIX utils". (ed, sed, AWK, lex, etc.)
Then we show you how to do the same task with only the standard utils. (i.e. no install needed) -- inevitably someone shows us how to do it in AWK and makes all feel stupid. :)
If we are successful, you get to eliminate one more dependency from your system, not to mention reducing attack surface.

Nice writeup.
there are tons of places online to get glasses for a lot less. My last two pair came from https://www.eyebuydirect.com/
I think the site that started it was http://www.39dollarglasses.com (never ordered from them though)

Warby Parker advertises on a lot of podcasts but their prices seem to be at least twice the two places listed above.

Both times took 3-4 weeks to get the frames so I assume they are made in china but they are cheap and I never had any problems with my last pair or my current pair.
At least take it down to the wash-dry-fold. At $1-$1.50/pound, it might be cheaper in time and exasperation.

Not if you do it right.

If your goal is to destroy an industry in another country, you can stop dumping after that industry has been destroyed. Then, the people of that country will have no choice but to buy from you, because there is nobody left in that country that produces the goods you produce.
OK one thing I missed is: why are you adjusting temperature several times a day?

Why not just program night/morning/work hours/evening temperatures and let the thermostat change to the right one. Nothing to do, nothing to think about.
Some internet/local network server on the network should provide software to do that. This software should be competed on separate from the network of thing devices individually (and should probably have open source interfaces and implementations; an industry consortium like the Khronos group - OpenGL, OpenCL, Vulkan, etc. - would be perfect). You could buy a pre-built box for it, it might get folded into the future all-in-1 router/modem (website) or console/TV box, you can have your laptop or old desktop do it, etc.

That way there is a single authoritative device to secure and control everything with, a single device to reset if it becomes compromised, etc. Updates can be in cryptographically signed bundles from their manufacturers. And any smart algorithms can be run through the server. Arbitrary code execution on devices would be strongly discouraged by industry practice.
Not as far as I know.
I don't have references on this, but if there's a meaning that's used 99.999% of the time, it probably influences the way we perceive the other meanings. So the typically used man=male meaning bleeds into the man=civilization meaning, creating the sense that men are the most important part of our civilization...
You are correct.

However, the sites that do the overkill of a sticky header tend to also have poorly thought out site navigation and user experiences.

Let's say on a normal site, killing any absolute nav would result in a 5%* decrease in UX.

On a site like this, killing any absolute nav might result in a 5% increase in UX.

Did a UDP/IP/Ethernet "stack" (relied on a packet driver shim / smth to send / recv the Ethernet frames) in NASM for DOS while having couple months of experience and using Tannenbaum's book and RFCs.

Worked great (was sitting in a TSR, was stress tested via sending a storm of packets over a short netwrok cable directly to the machine (otherwise network printers would halt :)) while having Elite:Frontiers running its Cobra ship animation on the screen).

Were the times :)

[ humble point is, with things as simple as UDP, special-cased for no packet fragmentation, etc and when the scenario is LAN, you can do it easily and over couple days even, if you really have no other options ]

It does seem unfortunate that a psychiatrist of all people would fall prey to the sort of self-delusion that he should recognize in conspiracy theorists and cult members.

Even more that he lends his word as a scientist and man of principle to a practice that has done incalculable harm to the mentally ill for centuries.

With all due respect, your post looks like a shiny marketing pitch to me.

What you call 'imaginary future problem' is everyday for some people. Think three months of work for a team of eight senior system devs per sys call behaving unexpectedly.

And tbh, windows was historically far worse than Linux in that area with all the 'bug compatibility' and closeness per version.

Yes they can provide a layer for some calls now, it's all shiny and hipster, but it will be cold day in hell before a major bank or big enterprise runs anything serious on it.

My prior probability of the existence of demonic possession is very close to 0, so until I see better evidence than a few dubious anecdotes (that always have explanations for why we can't capture supposed paranormal activity on camera), my posterior probability will remain very close to zero.
I agree diagnosing demonic possession would be unscientific.

However, the role and attitude of the author seems ultimately helpful to his patients. If he can screen the suffers of diagnosable and treatable mental illnesses from the hard to explain cases, he can get proper treatment for the former group. By not denying the existence of demonic possession, he remains in the good graces of religious leaders, who are likely to bring him patients who otherwise would receive no psychiatric evaluation.

However, leaving the later group in the hands of exorcists is questionably moral. But if honestly, as he claims, there are cases where "the symptoms in question have no conceivable medical cause" then I guess there is little else he can do.

Of course, writing a click-bait article about diagnosing demonic possession is unprofessional of both Gallagher and the Washington Post.
We are not! The "8-12 feet tall" tells part of the difference. Bilberries, or "European blueberries", is pretty much ground cover at 2 feet or so (and supposedly covers about 20% of the entirety of Sweden).

Well he admits to being a catholic, so his worldview is already well-aligned with possible demonic possession. People see what they expect to see. People believe what they want to believe.

> In his diary, Manning described Climbié as Satan, and said that no matter how hard he hit her, she did not cry or show signs that she was hurt.

[...]

> From then on, Kouao kept Climbié away from hospitals, turning instead to churches. Kouao said to the pastors that she was the mother and that demons were inside Climbié. The pastor at the Mission Ensemble Pour Christ, Pascal Orome, offered prayers for Climbié to cast out the devil, and thought that her injuries were due to demonic possession.[4][51] On another occasion, Kouao took Climbié to a church run by the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God, where the pastor, Alvaro Lima, suspected she was being abused, although he took no action. He said in the inquiry that Climbié told him that Satan had told her to burn herself. The pastor did not believe her, but he still believed that a person could be possessed.[52]
My old hypothesis is that in a reasonably free society, families reach their "destination" socioeconomic status after 3 generations.

Even if they immigrate as refugees on rusty boats, or lose everything in a holocaust or internment camps. Or, even if they win the lottery. After three generations, they hit their level, whether it's at the bottom or the top. And then they stay there.

It's IQ, an absence of stimulation-seeking behavior, a long mental time horizon, and a non-susceptibility to addictive chemicals or behaviors, and an absence of costly mental and physical diseases. It's genetic.
Neither of us works a 9-5 job. Next Monday at 3PM, there might be nobody home, or both of us home, or I'm home and want the A/C on, or I'm home but the weather's nice so I'm working in the sunroom and don't need the A/C. That evening, we may spend a few hours out with friends or family, and don't need the A/C blasting at home for no reason. Or we may be home and need it after all. At midnight, we may both be sleeping, and she'll want the temperature around 68. Or she might be working an overnight shift, and when I'm sleeping alone I prefer it warmer. There's nothing that can be programmed into the thermostat in advance. Remote control offers the best convenience and best economics.
The full title (for me at least) reads "As a psychiatrist, I diagnose mental illness. Also, I help spot demonic possession."

The HN title reads "As a psychiatrist, I diagnose mental illness. And sometimes, demonic possession." This suggests (via linguistic ellipsis) that the psychiatrist diagnoses demonic possession. However, he explicitly does not.

> I technically do not make my own “diagnosis” of possession but inform the clergy that the symptoms in question have no conceivable medical cause.

This is an interesting distinction. Of course it would be ridiculous, backwards, and unscientific for a medical professional to 'diagnose' someone with demonic possession. But to admit that the symptoms are outside the scope of modern psychiatry seems a more reasonable reaction.

The title is misleading. Here is an update from the link itself,

Update (7/2/2016): Since our post yesterday, Louis has released a new video with more details about the situation. He confirmed that he has been contacted by Apple’s intellectual property lawyers. But he clarified that he is not being sued by Apple. He goes on to say that there’s still a lot of unknowns, and he’ll likely find out more after the holiday weekend. Check out the explanation on his YouTube channel, and here’s the sum-up Louis gave in the video description: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pk4p4oEu2sE
Apart from the recent startups mentioned by others, there are also established Asian sellers of prescription eyeglasses. About 9 years ago I bought two pairs of single-vision prescription glasses from optical4less.com for 58 USD total, including shipping from Hong Kong to the UK. Assuming you live in the US, you could have gotten the same deal, and could still get it today.

If you have a really strong prescription or need varifocals, this increases the price. Be careful about buying varifocals online. It's worth contacting the company usong their chat/messaging function prior to ordering.
Nope, this was just another Internet lynch mob fed by innuendo from a youtuber.
"Bob Ross of digital artistry"

He is indeed.
There's a counterargument that we have been collectively underpricing nonrenewable resources, to the point that the term itself "nonrenewable resource" points to a price which fails to account for the full-in total economic, natural-capital, time, and impact costs of sustainably sourcing the resource, and potentially by factors of thousands to millions.

That's a concept I'm still working out, and is based on a re-reading of much foundational economic work (Smith, Mill, Jevons, Hotelling, among others). I'm not in the least presenting this as mainstream. But it would call into question the market-price basis of both resources and recycling.

Food for thought, for now.
