It's certainly safer than only using a password if you use the same password on lots of sites, since the odds of any password database being hacked are higher than the odds of your phone being targeted.
You're not the only one who's hesitant. I actually tend to put a lot of thought into my responses because I know from experience that sometimes my ideas don't bode well with the community. Maybe they were bad comments, maybe they weren't well thought out, who knows. I've gotten better at this, but it's taken practice.

Sometimes you won't get any response, in fact the majority of mine don't receive any feedback whatsoever. I've learned to live with this, it's not a major problem at all. The battle for me was realizing that a some of the folks here are very critical (in a good, analytical way). It takes time and mistakes to learn, and trust me, you will learn as long as you try. This goes with anything, but I think the hacker news community is a truly remarkable one and has helped me grow in many ways.

Embrace the comments that give negative feedback, understand where the posters of the replies come from and try to step back and realize where you may have been in the wrong.

>not surprisingly [...] the outcome is likely often chaotic.

Ok so if we have assumption that to make Identical[DNA + environment] equal to a chaotic outcome, then we need to add variable, random. Random would be determimed by environmental noise or possibly even
(even more random) random quantum noise.

Why should we expect the effect of Random to be large enough to create easily identifiable personalities, or more accurately, behavior patterns?

So to be fair about this: I'm not aware of a specific reason it was so obvious to you (you don't provide any).

Your intuition in hindsight will always seem like common sense to you. That's why it's good we do these types of experiments which question our intuition.

Reading between the lines, I suspect you're trying to say that Inkscape is gratuitously different from Adobe Illustrator? Well, it's interface is also suspiciously similar to (older versions of) Corel DRAW, so maybe it's not so much deliberate differentiation as it is just borrowing from a different tradition than you're used to.
My SO is still using a 13" early-2011 MBP, recently upgraded with an SSD and 16GB of RAM, and running the latest OSX release. With only it's original 4GB of ram it was constantly swapping on more recent releases of OSX, which was pretty painful, but it operates just fine now. A brand new 13" MBP would have longer battery life, weigh less, and have a High-DPI display, but wouldn't really be any faster in day-to-day use (and it wouldn't even support more RAM!). I was pretty surprised by how little computers had improved in the last six years.

Buying houses in cash and selling millions: self-publishing's 'hidden' authors
The US model right now is is exporting cash and hard assets in exchange for mostly consumable goods. It's a pretty obvious bad idea.

It's ok in the sense that it isn't a moral hazard. But it's bad in that we're exporting our wealth and hollowing out the country.
We're getting even better numbers on other devices:

Android phone, ~5M ops/sec.
Macbook Air, Chrome, ~30M ops/sec.
Macbook Pro, Chrome Canary, ~80M ops/sec.
Lenovo netbook, IE6, ~100K ops/sec

[...]

These numbers represent a breakthrough in performance not possible with other databases.

Care to share some details on this benchmark? What kind of operations were these? Your results don't really sound likely for any kind of non-trivial operation - is it possible that you were testing a routine that was optimized out (to a static return/noop) by the JIT?

Actually, you are wrong, it's a requirement of the MADA contract, and you can see an example here: http://www.benedelman.org/docs/htc-mada.pdf

"Company shall not... take any actions that may cause or result in the fragmentation of Android, including but not limited to the distribution by Company of a software development kit (SDK) derived from Android or derived from Android Compatible Devices..."

Please don't claim people are wrong without any evidence, especially when the evidence that exists disagrees with you. ;)

Also, while the Open Handset Alliance page is no longer updated, OHA members are the companies who have signed the MADA. The OHA is a thinly veiled cartel for Google to exert control over the industry. If Amazon releases a Play Store-supported phone, they'll have to kill the Kindle Fire line... or make them Google Play-included Android devices... which would mean being forced to include a competing eBook store, Play Books, on Kindle devices.

This is the very definition of illegal tying, and hopefully the US government will finally take note.
There's kind of "converse" problems too, that I think is the focus of the linked article, in that there's an epidemic of hype in academics, math, and the sciences. So it's not just that people of high ability are being missed, but some individuals of high ability are being over-hyped to an extreme. The signal to noise ratio is very poor due to multiple types of errors.

People have been writing about this for a long time; it's nothing new but little seems to change (https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2002/12/our-gen...).
Last week I walked into a T-Mobile store and asked for a new SIM card to replace one I lost. I gave them the phone number and apparently an invalid pin (the sales rep verified that I gave him the wrong PIN). I asked if I should do something else to verify it was my account and nothing. They didn't ask for name, ID, or anything else, and they didn't charge me for the SIM card. I went home and popped it in and my account had clearly been transferred -- I didn't have to do any other activation steps or anything.

Great customer service experience, but horrible security.

Interesting perspective. In the 90s I worked on handheld devices like the Apple Newton and that a lot of fun and there was a lot new and exciting stuff happening in that area. It seemed a much smaller world where you could keep track of what's going on.
The author defined it after responding to comments--he says it's bugs per repo. So, a repo with 10 lines of code and 1 bug is, according to him, less buggy than a repo with 100 lines of code and 2 bugs. Also, note that projects in dynamically-typed languages tend to be smaller since people tend to switch over to static types for larger projects. So this 'analysis' is pretty much designed to 'find' that dynamically-typed language projects are less buggy.

If you use an Android phone that's rooted, you can use Titanium Backup to copy your Google Authenticator app data between devices. It's up to you to copy that data somewhere else, but it is a very low level alternative to storing everything in 1Password or similar.
There is support for HiDPI, to an extent (see e.g. [1]). What there doesn't seem to be support for is having both a HiDPI and low DPI screen.

Therapy.
I started it out mostly out of curiosity and a sophisticated misunderstanding. Turns out, after a couple of sessions, I started realizing that my therapist was particularly impactful on me when we'd talk about work-related events, exactly because while I think I have a healthy approach to my personal life, I often let work stuff get the better of me when things get intense.
Over time, we're taking about better ways to plan potential events ahead, and think really hard about what could really go that wrong when something happens, and it really helps putting things in perspective. I totally advise it.

Open source UIs are by and large designed by committee. Even when the governance of the project is by "benevolent dictator", it is hard to turn away contributions from the wider community. Even if a UI starts out simple and elegant, it will eventually die a death by a thousand cuts.
I question the comment about not being a moral hazard. It's almost like a free-rider problem, but shifted in time instead of person.

Not saying you're wrong, just questioning it's assumption in economics.
It's slower for a reason. I'm not sure why they'd switch after a decade simply because Google asked them to.
As an aside, it drives me up the wall that Facebook's 2FA settings are stuck on SMS. Although other options exist like a Yubikey or a TOTP scheme, even if you select one of those, Facebook still sends you a 2FA SMS whenever you try to login.

At this point I ignore it and use my TOTP app anyway, but it bothers me to no end, as it leaves my account that much more vulnerable to a hacker intercepting the SMS in transit and using it to break into my Facebook account. Facebook does not allow you to disable 2FA SMS without disabling 2FA altogether.
Say what you will about modern life but I am in no hurry to go back to hunting wild animals and foraging. There are factors to consider besides how healthy the average person is (surely a skewed measure given the unlikelihood of your surviving if you are sickly or weak).

That piece also seems to be somewhat unspecific on what exactly "limiting the population" entails; after all, infanticide, a lack of medical care of any kind, and outright murder are no less available to a farming society, if you really are arguing for such a solution to inequality.
Basically all American citizens have a unique ID in the form of the SSN (albeit one not meant for that purpose). Most Americans, through a driver's license, inform the state of their home address and provide their face for biometrics.

Because it is their job.
I did this with TMobile when they had get 3 lines and get 4th free. I use the 4th free line as my 2FA. The 2FA line is an old android phone and is always plugged in & on in my basement. I have a little script on the phone that reports any SMS messages a db running on my home server (RPi) and I access it with in my network (or via VPN).
Robotics accelerator $15,000, 0% equity
My demographic: I use Inkscape about once a year, to make a single small thing that I know would probably be best as a vector graphic, for sizing options.

For a thing that should probably take about an hour, it takes me half a day, to relearn the handful of things I need to do.

Which, I think, is pretty good, considering I'm not at all a graphics person, and usually have to search around just to discover the terms I need to search for how to do what I want.

My results are amateurish, but good enough, and probably wouldn't exist without Inkscape. I like it.

Your reasoning is intuitive, but I'm afraid you're wrong to some extent.

It's true that it's not an isolated case and PART of the society may be susceptible to pay or receive bribes, but according to a Brazilian historian, Marco Antonio Villa, PhD (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marco_Antonio_Villa), when Brazil was nominated as independent by Dom Pedro I, there was no corruption cases. The few cases that happened afterwards were severity punished. It's not clear exactly, however, when corruption was installed between that time and today. Now Brazil is going through a transformation. Corrupts are being caught, or at least giving satisfaction to prosecutors. The federal police is doing a wonderful job with many operations to uncover / dismantle white collar crime. Pushing forward this momentum will lead to a new country. And it is happening as I can see very close. You are just seeing many news in this regard because many cases got uncovered at once, so don't take the wrong idea. Your country or any other country have corruption or nefarious things going on that are only discovered in the future. That's all.
The Telegram client source is on Github (https://github.com/peter-iakovlev/Telegram) but it seems to be months out of date and they still don't have the source for the server. Even if both were equal on the OSS front, I'd still trust Signal a lot more, especially considering Telegram's homebrew crypto implementation.
Yes, I'd write that code in C++ in a single like if I could. At the moment it's not quite possible, but in C++17 and with ranges library the expressiveness of C++ will get quite close to the expressiveness of Python.

It's not "cleverness", but rather the ability to express the intent as succinctly and clearly as possible. Higher level languages allow you to do that, lower level languages don't. Obviously, Go is not a very high level language because it forces you to write explicit loops instead of using comprehensions or functional algorithms. Loop is a primitive concept. All other factors being equal (i.e. performance) you should always prefer comprehensions or algorithms over explicit loops.

Apparently they started this thing right at the time where distributed version control systems started to take off, years before github (more or less at the same time git appeared). They were very early and clearly missed a big opportunity there.

Apart from realizing too late that people jumped onto git instead of their bazaar the PPA thing also is limited to Ubuntu, no support for other distributions, not even Debian. If they had made it a more universal solution back in the day this surely would have been a compelling argument for a lot of projects to move there. Another pain point is the UI, maybe not as bad as sourceforge but still cluttered and confusing.

Not true. The Machiavellian Finance Minister has taken out spots in newspapers saying they are not mandatory for PAN cards - the cards which previously would've become invalid won't be anymore. They remain mandatory for filing returns; instead of linking the PAN card, you now have to mention the number while filing. The loophole continues to be molested.

Nothing new here. The supreme court has kept parroting the line ~5-6 times. They have neither the will nor the integrity to keep the executive to its word.
Ah. Ok. Got it. Maybe if I rephrase it slightly it will be more useful:

Back in 1995, a full-blown crank wrote:

It is well known that belief in medicines can cause favorable outcomes even if the medicines are ineffective. This is the placebo response, which most doctors dislike because it muddies their experiments and seems inherently unscientific from the point of view of the biomedical model ... far from being a nuisance, it is, potentially, the greatest therapeutic ally doctors can find in their efforts to mitigate disease.

I'm not saying that this full-blown crank describes exactly the same idea as Kaptchuk, but ideas in the same space were out there knocking around. Is Kaptchuk's idea truly radically different from what came before?

I'm pretty convinced that a 17" mac book with a semi-modern graphics card would be the best machine on the market.

And I hate Apple.
if you buy one used, they won't replace the graphics for free.

my employer still have "late 2012" MBP with the nvidia-of-death cards as I call them, and apple haven't replaced any of them. Even in 2013.

This whole article is a disservice. You do not need a second machine to write. And even if I needed, i'd use a machine that runs the latest linux with all the security considerations of a modern system, and then I would just install my text editor and nothing else.

This is nothing but a gateway drug for people to join the mac cult. Meh. Not even an expensive mac is any good. let alone a free one. As mac fans always reminds us: you get what you pay for. And free+mac tax = lousy machine.

And remove SMS from the listing. I currently have 3 2FA mechanisms listed: Security-Key/Yubikey (default), Authenticator App (set on two devices), and Backup codes which I downloaded (and at some point will print and place in a safe deposit box).

Losing access to my two gmail accounts would be a complete nightmare---more so than my bank/brokerage accounts. Some brokerages like TD Ameritrade do not even offer 2FA. In my case, paranoia mode for email accounts is completely warranted.

I really wish U2F becomes the standard across all web services. It seems insane that, in some scenarios, the only barrier against financial ruin is the gullibility of your cell-phone provider's customer service rep.

It is possible to separate the work tree from the git repository files with the "--separate-git-dir" flag. .git is then a file whose contents point to the directory where the repository files reside. Any other command works as usual without specifying the directory, so it is just needed for clone or init.
