This was common back when I was in high school. A bunch of us kids convinced ourselves that we were straight outta Compton. It was so wack, but we had lots fun of breakdancing and threatening to bust a cap in each other. This was before Columbine, and in Canada. The accent was hard for us to get right.

So, now it's called transracial, and we're no longer allowed to dis it? Sure, ok, whatever.

If you got DRACO to work in animals, there isn't a pharmaceutical company (or VC) on the planet that wouldn't buy you a small island just to get you to the table. This is probably the worst example you could choose for trying to demonstrate FDA regulations chilling development next to CRISPR.

It's the in vitro -> in vivo part that they're anxious about wasting money on, not the FDA process.

The whole point of NT was to provide Win32, POSIX(UNIX), and OS/2 all atop the same kernel. No need to rebuild it, NT was built like that.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_NT_3.1#Architecture

Nothing stops Microsoft from putting an entire GNU or BSD userspace atop their NT kernel. They probably built the proof-of-concept 15 years ago.

EDIT: Considering that they used the BSD network code to put TCP/IP in NT 3.1, it's likely that they had at least a minimal BSD userspace running atop the NT kernel circa 1991/1992. That could have meant x86, Alpha, or MIPS:

Linode seems to be working in a new version of their control panel, I hope that they do a great work, because for too much people the current one is a entry barrier, even when they do a very good work.
I have a toshiba laptop from 2001 that still boots up and runs fine, abet slowly. I have 2 from 2008 w/ no problems at all. My 2012 230x thinkpad has better specs then what's being currently released (2 256gb ssds, and 16gb of ram - really easy to install aftermarket ram & ssds) and is my main laptop, and will be for the foreseeable future. I don't see how a 2011 machine is all that remarkable.
Good to know, I suppose that I would need to change that phrase to be more accurate. Thanks for sharing it.

It's not incorrect but it's dismissive of the thoughtful, hard work that's necessary to pull off a success. Every big opportunity doesn't equal a big win. Also, it's easy to take a hard-won effort for granted as an inevitability.
Yes, unfortunately privacy doesn't appear to be an option.
(I interpreted "iptables frontend" as probably meaning something that just generates iptables rules, that's why I was asking)

netfilter is the underlying kernel infrastructure, that's used e.g. by iptables to set rules for packets. From this https://github.com/evilsocket/opensnitch/blob/master/opensni..., it looks like OpenSnitch uses iptables to set rules so that the kernel delivers outgoing packets that don't belong to an existing connection to a queue. It then can use said queue to only intercept those packets – if it lets them pass, a connection will be created and further packets will not be passed to/handled by OpenSnitch. It touches the first packet of each outgoing connection, but not all traffic.

> But the suburban dream of middle class life at low prices is alive and well in the midwest, south, and much of the NE too, where nice housing is still no more than 2x-3.5x median income levels.

And I don't see people clamoring to move to Tennessee, Alabama or Mississippi.
"Facebook says explicitly on its help pages that it doesn’t record conversations, but that it does use the audio to identify what is happening around the phone.

For someone who is into vintage design and handmade interior design pieces, Etsy is still top notch, though.

There are some emerging competitors such as Chairish (overpriced), AptDeco (very little worth collecting), 1stDibs (hilariously overpriced) etc. And there's still eBay. But Etsy is still beating all of them. I have also yet to come across a bad seller there. Everyone I have bought from have not only provided a superb product, but also packaged it immaculately.

The search and discovery isn't great, I admit. (It's particularly hard to browse without being deluged with kitsch -- horrific "shabby chic" pieces made to look worn, or furniture made from old metal pipes or driftwood. They are lacking a "style" dimension.)

It's all about what is trendy. What part of the population should we optimize for now? Some people like big text and wants to scroll. Other people might have problems with their carpal tunnel and can't scroll with the scroll-wheel on the mouse. Mabe they don't even have a mouse at all and scrolling has to be done with arrow keys and a bad angle on the wrist? It's hard to optimize for everyone so usually you just listen to the people that has been testing different layouts already and measure on how many adviews you get to deside what layout to choose. Because at the end of the day that is all that matters to most. Where do I get most money?
It really depends on the dimensionality of the solution space. With very high dimensionality, going "away" from a bad direction basically does not help.
I suppose that is the same with another tools and providers. The community size and the work that the providers put on this makes a big difference IMHO. Another reason to share this in the comparison.
Thanks!

And hard. I wear cufflinks. Half the good ones you can buy are artisan stuff built on aliexpress basics, and very difficult to distinguish from boring artless stuff build on the same basics. You can tell by looking, but difficult for software or for a bureaucracy. I imagine there are many categories like that.
I think that is part of the mistake he makes. "We do <morally wrong advertising thing>, but we also do <other advertising> how is that different?". It isn't, but the logical conclusion of this isn't that they are both "good", they might also be both morally wrong.
Thanks for the input! I've thought about it previously but the work I do is cutting edge and have room to learn a lot from colleagues, if I ignore the bias.

But you're right, in the long run I do plan to switch. I'll have to start passively looking out for new opportunities. I do dread having to spend time to prepare for the all day generic white-board interviews while I could be better off spending it on learning new tools or hacking on a side project.
I just found your resume off your tumblr. Unless you updated it, I really hope you get someone to help you revise it. It's not very palatable, imo.
> All that is a roundabout way of saying: for god's sake write your system APIs in C.

No. Use an IDL to define component interfaces and a generator for any particular language. That's how C++ components interoperate on Windows. (COM is just a formalization of vtables generated from an IDL file and compiled with midl compiler.)
I can speak to the lack of real Indian food in the Netherlands, there's about one restaurant in Amsterdam which serves proper food. The rest all serve British Indian Restaurant cuisine, which is the equivalent of Febo representing all Dutch food.
What is the purpose of an "application firewall" in an open source world?

If I have the source code and I am curious I just read it. I have yet to see any source code that attempted to obfuscate opening sockets.

Sometimes I run programs with ktrace (strace for Linux folks I guess) and look at the calls.

But truthfully in most cases controlling DNS catches most if not all of today's applications' attempts contact the mothership.

I do not use a third party cache, I maintain a custom root and can use it to block wildcarded domains, something that cannot be done with /etc/hosts. I do make extensive use of the HOSTS file but not for blocking.

I can also redirect traffic to localhost servers where I can log requests and analyze the captured packets. For instance if I want to reverse engineer the protocols used.

In my opinion an "application firewall" is a misnomer. IMHO a "firewall" operates on incoming packets from other computers, not packets originating from the computer running the firewall.

If a Windows user wants to run a "firewall" then IMO they need an additional computer, e.g., a gateway they control.
This is the way to stop the telemetry, IMHO.

I think Microsoft puts some application they call a "firewall" on Windows. IMHO that is misleading, but not surprising considering the source.

In an open source world, in the event a particular user does not "have the time" to read source code or even grep it for clues, chances are that some other user does have the time and compiles all his programs from source. It is always possible that an application's "phoning home" behaviour could be documented by such users in public forums, etc.

What if an application hard codes an IP address? Answer: I see it in the source code. NB: I very rarely see this in practice. Apparently few people can maintain a stable IP.
It's hard to feel sorry for people who want public lands to be accessible but who, as a bloc, keep voting for politicians who want to privatize everything.
Prices in non-bubbles also surge, without a pop.

Not to say that we're not in a bubble, but unless you have stronger evidence, the correct thing to say on the subject is: "Who knows!"

But perhaps you know something we don't.
So that means your resume is good enough to get interviews but you're not passing those? Did you bootcamp go through whiteboarding exercises and prep you for what to expect for a dev interview?
Sure but Australia has a $22/hr min wage and absurdly good welfare and you can eat potato chips on it all day ig you want. China is rougher. But yes of course just because many do something does not mean its a good idea, but analyzing what others are doing may be food for thought when deciding where a placr is relaticely good to fish or not.

I would lump Honda in with the losers too -- they have also invested in hydrogen cars, and I think the only electric car they've ever made is an EV version of the Fit, which you may see driven by the maintenance staff at a college campus near you.

I might also lump Nissan in with the losers -- what have they done since the Leaf, which is now totally outclassed in terms of range?

I'm actually more optimistic about Ford and GM, which are investing heavily in electric cars and self-driving cars, than I am about the Japanese brands.

I say this as a happy Toyota Prius owner. I like my car, but I think electric self-driving cars are where the money is going to be in the future, and I wish Toyota would make a better effort in that area.
Don't cry man, at least I feel quite confident that these backdoors are efficiently NOBUS
This is not a special purpose account. You can see that I've used it to comment on many threads.
self driving cars is going to resume the suburban boom. When commute time becomes productive time, or TV time, then people will continue to expand outwards to cheaper housing with more space. I would be betting against density right now.
From one perspective, the bar should be lowered. Lowering the bar is acknowledgement of discriminatory practices towards opportunity. How can a black person study if he is banned from a library? Similary, a hostile and overly macho tech culture can diasadvantage women from learning. Especially if the learning is not from books but from other people/men. (Which is the majority of info needed to succeed in a workplace. The majority of needed info is NOT book smarts but relationship gated info and privileges)

So the existence of an entry bar exists only because of a lack of mentorship culture out of gated access to information. In school, something i've seen is terrible TAs explaining things purposefully convolutedly to "haze" newcomers.

The give and take aspect with all information, including programming knowledge is fundamental. For men, it revolves around mutual respect, but men almost seem to want something from women before dolling out any infor whatsoever. The most minimum of which is being friendly and nice in a "I heard you're the awesome expert to ask about this, ur so great! I hope you can teach me! :)". While the requirement for men is to not be an asshole. "Hey, can you explain this?"
The wonders of using software without paying for it.
Nice.
I'm a real sucker for visualizations. There's so much you could do, but never enough motivation cause it's just a lot of work :p

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_z-_3ffgz8E <-- Here's one I did a long time ago (and uploaded not all that long ago). Things one could do with this: transition the background, play with the camera, transition colors, separate out the SID's three different tracks. (Note: this raytracing algorithm only works with square column grids, but is pretty fast, as it's very easy to work out where a ray will hit. (Maybe it could be done in real-time at a low resolution using modern hardware.))

I really enjoyed MilkDrop back in the day. It seems like hardly anyone is interested in visualizations anymore. :<
They're fond of apostrophes though ;)

But fusion won't be available in 10 years either. There is a long, long way from net energy positive to mass rollout. Fusion is going to be harder than fission, and fission took 30 years from first controlled fission to 1% of electricity supply, which is the lowest which i could call 'mass rollout'. In 10 years though, renewables will be definitely making it - becoming cheaper than any new type of generation , probably almost stopping construction of any new non-relewable generation. Peak use of fossil fuels for electricity generation is now projected to happen in 2025.

Trillions of dollars are being invested in infrastructure now - and yes, it is mostly investment into renewables already.
Well, there's quite a few examples of invasive species that have constituted significant threats to human, animal or plant health, for instance. Like malaria, the bubonic plague, minor nuisances like that.

For some examples from more recent times, the US timber industry has spent tens of millions of dollars fighting the Asian long-horned beetle, the citrus industry has an extensive quarantine program in place fighting Asian Citrus Psyllid, invasive varroa mite are part of the reason for the strong decline in honeybee populations, etc.

Now you may say, "but I'm not importing mosquitos, just seeds", but really with Chinese seed suppliers with unknown QA and no knowledge of the ecosystem in your region, you run a real risk of introducing fungi, bacteria, insects etc. that can spread and do serious damage. Do us all a favour and buy seeds in your own country, where at least some QA and vetting for big risk factors has been performed.
More interestingly is that the EV does not help solve congestion. They take up the same space as an ICEV.

Raleigh now sell more electric bikes than normal bikes. That's where the real 'revolution' is occurring.

If you live in a city and your commute is in the 0-5miles range, they are simply the fastest way of getting to work during rush hour. You might not like the idea of a hot sweaty cycle ride to work. Neither did I.

Seriously pop to your local bike shop that sells these things and try one. In my case, I've stopped using buses and taxis, sold one car, and gone down to a one car family. It's saving me a fortune.

Would definitely recommend the mid-drive over hub-drive eBikes. They produce more torque. If you live in a hilly area, try and get a bike with at least 60nm of torque. Some top out at 90nm. Just means you can cycle up those 1 in 2 hills one handed.
I've always found these sorts of things interesting - I was obsessed with MilkDrop years ago (as someone has already mentioned, it's in MilkDrop's ballpark), but even going back to when I was a kid there was a program on the ZX Spectrum in a magazine listing that read the EAR port and modulated the colours on screen to match the music (after a fashion!).

I'd be interested to know if this is running solely by analysing the audio or if they have access to a MIDI file or similar that gives cues as to each sound. I know that the ability to process and recognise individual sounds is becoming ever more powerful, but it would be an easy shortcut to have a MIDI file generated by the sequencing software to give cues for each specific piece of landscape (as they all seem to be tied to a given sound, and then have variations in their appearance depending on that sound's specific pitch).

It's added another thing to the "list of things that I think I should know how to do"...

I don't think this is fair. Some movies are completely fictional, but most are set on reality in some way. And I bet that in those completely fictional films, the ratio is much closer.

Currently we've decided to charge 5% of the repairing fee as the service charge for example if the repairing fee came out to be $10 then we'd take $0.5 as service charge so you'd have to pay $10.5 in total but we haven't finalised on this model and have decided to do experiments with various models we've thought of.
One other consideration to make, once EVs dominate the road space, in many countries, significant levels of tax revenue are generated through petrol receipts. This will no longer be the case and will probably require a move to road pricing.
