I assume the GP's ansible role writes a crontab entry to perform the renewal.
The ansible role installs my ACME client of choice (https://github.com/lukas2511/dehydrated), invokes it once, and adds a cronjob.
You forget that they replaced Skype with an MSN service while doing this.

So in reality you might as well say they "reskinned" Office messenger, called Lync (which I believe started as a version of MSN messenger long ago) and then put out an "update" for Skype that replaced it with Lync, with the banners, window titles, website names, etc, replaced with "skype". That's what happened.

More like Pando is saying he did. For all we know there's more nuance somewhere that they're omitting. It's easy to cherry-pick the most flattering aspects of a Twitter feud and present it as a complete accounting of events.

Regardless, I still fail to see why they felt the need to make the comparison. It just struck me as a cheap way to vilify him with their readers.

If Altman did what they said he did, then of course that's bad. However, I can't help but notice he isn't the one penning hate-filled screeds here.
It looks like a script was added (insertion.js) that inserts a script from https://unpkg.com.

https://pastebin.com/q9xT21Xr

The script seems to be blacklisted currently, but the new code has a changing hash based on time since install which I think allows the hack to continue working after it has been blacklisted.

I am hoping I am safe as uBlock caught the script before it could be executed due to it coming from 3rd party domain.

Ban away. What was said in my post is both true and pertinent. On the other hand, what is not germane to the discussion is the moderation-enforced ethos being peddled by YC's etiquette police. I, and many others, are here to discuss tech, including those things which affect tech lifestyle, and this does include Europe's present demographic crisis.

Good luck squelching the world's dissenting worldviews.
To be fair, I too am invited to parties at abnormal hours, or out to bars (and I don't drink), or to the water parks, etc.

I think it's important we keep things in perspective and review every case as a unique occurrence (or every person at least). There's a danger in generalizing.

There is obvious sexism (perhaps a ton of it), but I also think it's not really helpful to just assume certain requests are sexist. Especially, in the example you just gave, where female interns "abnormal requests for attending parties at abnormal hours". I'm sure it happens all the time, there may even be a small sexual component (just like every other industry), however it may be just as sexist not to invite them...

Unless it impacts their career, or in some disenfranchises them, I really don't see it as an issue. I can tell you that I turn down literally every event outside of work that isn't 9am - 5pm. It may impact my career (although I don' think so), I think people just feel pressured about it.

I can't tell you how pressured I felt turning down our teams offsite to a ski resort. I turned it down because it wasn't in my job description, but also because of the following:

(a) I like to spend time with my family

(b) I don't like skiing

(c) All the women had their own rooms, while the guys had to share

(d) I have a fulfilling life outside of work

The reason I bring that up, is a lot of people may look at that situation as sexist. It actually did disenfranchise me to not go. Literally, I was told "it's required, you have to go", I still said no.

Personally, I view it as a difference in lifestyles and expectations. I'm not offended that they made me feel uncomfortable with the offer (idk if I should, maybe...), I however am upset that I lost something out of it.

I think that's what we need to fix, fix the expectation that work leaves the office. It's fairly easy to not make people feel uncomfortable if the expectation that 9am - 5pm it's a "safe space", anything that happens there you put your work hat on and work appropriately. Then when the shift ends, your free to put your fun hat on. Don't mix the two, and you'll have a hell of a lot less problems.

Even with your example, that wouldn't occur.

Just wondering. Why does the link have utm_source=boomtrain when its coming from HN
It's probably some mix of a lack of impulse control and enjoying the chase. He meets an attractive woman and pursues her, without stopping to think whether or not what he's doing is inappropriate or even assault.

Edit: I just finished reading the article. I hope this comment doesn't seem like I'm dismissing him as "Dave being Dave", because what he did was horrible. Plying her with copious amounts of alcohol and then backing her into a corner, refusing to leave her house. That's really messed up, like a frat boy's limited understanding of consent.

"teach English in Asia" (....Imply are slightly dodgy, my interpretation)

This part of OP's comment is a very well known trope for people working in Asia.

It could just be a incorrect sterotype but personally this part of the comment should not have been flagged.

(Currently there's a trope the IT field has a issue)
I think a big reason ancient towers didn't really exist is less because they couldn't be built, and more that nobody wanted to climb up 5 or 10 floors if they could avoid it. No sane person would go up and down 20 floors if they could avoid it.

The colosseum is 150 feet tall, which isn't exactly short. Beyond that point, I think a big problem is getting the resources up high enough to keep building, as well as convincing people to climb that far up.
not specifically the Chromebook plus/pro but I did try the Toshiba Chromebook when it first came out, and I was kinda disappointed - felt like a locked down version of Linux to be totally honest - and all in all, it suffers from all the same problems that my windows device faces anyway.

Thank you. 56 years old, still writing code. I enjoy working with young programmers, they bring energy and ideas to my projects and keep me from getting stale and stuck.
What's the point of them achieving economic "success" if the world is too screwed to survive in? They're in an area of the world that will be heavily impacted by climate changes. I think your comment seems a bit loaded to be frank.
Moreover it's not only westerners (or only men) who go teach over there. I see people teach English (and to lesser degree other languages) who are not white [diff people from Africa, South America, etc.,] who teach English --moreover, those teachers typically stay in a country a year or two and return home or go onto another country and region; inexplicably, there seem to be an overrepresentation of Canadians. Many of them take the job because it pays relatively better than the alternative back home.

Do _some_ suffer from some fetishism[1], I'm sure --but in my estimation, it's not many.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding your post, but any half-decent compiler should compile (x<32)?1:0 and (x<32) to exactly the same code, regardless of platform.
OK, thanks. Your answer has allowed me to follow the paper a little further, though I think your answer may be inconsistent with the other two answers I got. Also I haven't been able to show myself that if the x_i are the roots of an irreducible polynomial, then Q(x_1,...,x_n) is symmetric with respect to x_1,...,x_n, in the sense claimed in the paper without proof.
It's just a data feed error. The markets have not actually moved.
> Get a high priced call girl, go on a sex site and get a woman who wants what you want. I mean I used to be in a band and it was easy to have a woman in nearly every city you could call when you feel lonely.

That's not the point. The point is precisely the power and coercion. Paying someone or finding someone like-minded doesn't hit that button anywhere near the same way that assault and blackmail does.

If you're strong-arming women into sex, it's not about the sex, it's about the strong-arming. The very inappropriateness itself is the goal.
sounds like the ol' stone soup trick, where its all the extra ingredients which make the magic work, not the AI. I'd reckon a talented producer could make a good song out of pseudo-random notes. Unless the original untouched AI track is released, I have to be skeptical
Well I'm mostly a user, and I've got to say that YouTube still wins on the technical front.

It remembers my position when I watch a video part way through, they have an app for just about every device you can get, they have a subscription service that removes all ads, it supports everything from 144p to 4k, it has livestreaming with multi-camera support, it supports 360 videos, has annotations, subtitles, speed changing, and more.

Compared to the next best thing, YouTube is still winning by a lot for me as a user.

As someone contemplating the purchase of one, a self-driving car needs to be better than me. That's a higher bar than better than average even if it's not objectively correct.
I do not believe that Malaysian police take a laidback attitude to sexual assault reports sd you have implied here. Even cases of a woman being sexually assaulted by another woman is also taken seriously in Malaysia. I think you need to stop having preconceived ideas about South East Asian countries. They might look similar but they are not.
If you're going to toss out legal language you might want to learn the difference between "battery" (contact happened) and "assault" (no contact required).

That's simply a false dichotomy. Many of the world's great cities still mostly enforce height limits that the Romans could have built to. Because actually living like an ant among 100 story skyscrapers is not what most humans want. A medium density and mixed use city of max ~150 foot high buildings has very few disadvantages and analogizing it to USA suburban sprawl is just laughable nonsense. Have you ever been to e.g. Rome, Paris, Amsterdam, Florence ... most of Western Europe?
Not close to baked yet, but look forward to Rust. Hyper just got async built in, so the entire ecosystem is going to be scalability first from the start.

There are also a lot of "Flask-like" projects in Rust. Rocket for the framework, Tera for the templates, and Diesel for the ORM.

The barrier right now is mainly upstream. Rocket is a nightly-only Rust crate right now, and a lot of the UX features these kinds of frameworks need / want are still missing from the compiler (like async / await).

Users flagged it. We sometimes override that when an article is unusually substantive, but in this case the community verdict is so clear that doing so would just make things worse.
The owner of the website could sign responses, and you could verify them, in addition to TLS via HTTPS. I think that can make it at least as secure as package management systems.
"you do the job of at least five people. You have to be creative; you have to be a writer, be a performer, an editor, a director, a marketer."

This is my problem. I keep building things, both hardware and software, and post them to Hackaday and Show HN, respectively. Cool things, like a magnetic audio connector or a big data project of 20,000 restaurant menus translated from Chinese.

But I can't do the marketing. I have no idea how to make money out of this. Finishing a project and posting it is exciting, but then I'm always let down by the fact that nobody cares.

The operating system will dutifully write back to disk whatever bytes your program left on those memory-mapped pages at the moment it terminated. If your data structures were in an inconsistent state -- pointers to nowhere, say -- then your file will get in the same inconsistent state, i.e. corrupted.
Here is what has worked for me:

I changed my role models and my goals. 5 years ago I used to aspire to be a well respected member of a software community - speaking at conferences, writing think pieces on Medium, being widely retweeted. Now the people I admire are entrepreneurs, creators and builders. Doers not talkers and tech pundits.

If you make that change you might find yourself spending so much time thinking about your goals that imposter syndrome won't even cross your mind.
Thanks for "pulling back the curtain" and giving us a peek at the data.
Python in general does this. Its designed to be readable first in most regards, something really valuable for other languages to learn - for every line written, it will probably be read dozens of times. Optimizing for the writing part with arcane or convoluted syntax at the expense of legibility only makes projects age poorly.
Easiest way to think about it: Picture two satellites crashing into each other. It looks exactly the same if both satellites are doing 100 m/s, or one satellite is stationary and the other is doing 200 m/s.

>1. When does this stop? What is the most supreme center in the universe?

Is one of the above satellites the centre? The other? It doesn't change anything about the impact force. There's no physical difference. So we can choose either satellite to be the centre (0 km/h) or neither (100 + 100, 50 + 150, whatever)

>2. Just as the child could roll down his window, and have instant access to the outside, is there a way we can do the same?

The problem with the earth is that it's really big/heavy and gravity prevents stuff just sort of "hanging in the air" at human-height, relative to the rotation of the earth... speaking in practical terms, I mean.. so it's harder to visualise. But at the same time, sure. If you're on the earth, sitting in your chair, doing 0 m/s relative to the ground, and a satellite hanging around at head height that ISN'T rotating along with the earth hits you in the face, you just successfully accessed an intertial reference frame that's outside the earth :D
Agreed in general, and we make a careful point of moderating HN less, not more, when an article is critical of YC or YC startups, although 'less' doesn't mean 'zero' (one learns about loopholes the hard way when running a web forum). But it's a moot point in this case; HN users have flagged the story overwhelmingly and the comments make it clear why. Since the community response is so clear, I think it's probably sufficient for us to simply explain that moderators haven't intervened in any way.
Simple Smalltalk Testing: With Patterns (1989)
The only multistory residential buildings of antiquity I know of is the old city of Sana'a: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sana%27a#Old_City Five to nine stories tall, made of rammed earth, not even concrete! (Not enough water for concrete in Yemen) Continuously inhabited for ~2500 years.

@idlewords went there back in 2014, before the Saudis invaded: http://idlewords.com/2014/07/sana_a.htm
Oh, I agree with you on that. It's just easy for there to be a lookie-loo sort of situation where people want to know the sordid details and end up re-centering the narrative on the abuser and the story they want to tell.

McClure's public apology, above all, should have been honest and sincere; more detail isn't strictly necessary, to be honest and sincere. It sounds like it wasn't honest or quite sincere. And, it sounds like his private apology, in this case, was decidedly dishonest and redirected blame.
Heh, so I went to look and see how hard it would be to simulate mouse scrolling, and the answer is... none. Literally none. Because X11 "mouse scroll" events are represented as button presses. Mouse buttons are 1=left, 2=middle, 3=right, 4=scroll-up, 5=scroll-down. So you just stick the relevant lines in your keynavrc; ex.

i click 4
e click 5

That said, I may make an effort to document this better.

Audio works well for us, for 1 to 1 conversations anyway. I haven't tried but apparently it's not so good at n to n. Screen sharing did work well until the latest update, now it hardly ever works and we have to use webex.

Chat is it's own mixed bag. Sometimes there is noticeable lag, you will get a popup showing you received the message but it will take several more seconds to show in the chat window. Very occasionally a message will take minutes to arrive or not at all. Copying and pasting is always a nightmare.

I wish ICQ would take their client from the late 90's and make a business version.
The sea water theory in the article does not adequately explain the aqueducts still standing in Europe in Italy/France/Spain/etc after 2000 years with no contact with salt water after construction, although I am not certain if the concrete in those things is used in a structural way similar to what would be expected of buildings.
I would like to fight it. I believe everything comes under nominative fair use. Please advice. I am in the UK, they are in the US.
Knack | Product Designer| Remote | REMOTE https://knack.com

We're a 100% remote company that has been 100% remote from the beginning and spends a lot of time thinking about how a small 100% remote team can build a world class product. We're 100% remote.

We're looking for super talented product designer with a passion for data and web applications to help design and build the next generation of tools for doing useful things with data.

Knack is a no-code application platform that enables anyone to easily build business and workflow apps. It's a big fun product that creates tons of value.

We've spent a lot of time playing feature catch-up and optimizing for product-market fit. We're now at the point where we want to focus on product design to truly make Knack special.

Other things about us: we're 100% bootstrapped, so we know how to build a product customers will pay for. We believe in growth without compromise, not growth at all costs. We don't have a VP layer or management, and want to keep it that way as long as we can.

Other things about you: you want to join a team that actually enjoys working with each other. You want to be engaged with the product and company beyond just design. You are not afraid of taking ownership and responsibility. You want to maximize your impact.

I think the written legal waiver was mentioned because it would be the only verifiable evidence to defend yourself against someone claiming such advances were unwarranted.
This is the most insightful comment. Pop music tends to be particularly susceptible to the impression that it can be copied, because it seems to fit the idea more than any other genre (that is debatable of course) that successful music is a template. But even in pop, things progress. AI has been shown to be pretty decent at copying and modeling. Creativity? Not so much. We've been making the equivalent of HMM-based "music in the style of (i.e. generative stochastic processes modeled on) Beethoven" since the 60s, but such a design is to going to write the next hit. Or if it does, it won't write the following 10 by itself. You would think it's not true from how the radio presents it to you, but the fact is that people (eventually) get bored of hearing the same thing over and over.

At a minimum, producing quality content demonstrates mastery of a topic, and that increases your credibility as a subject matter expert, which may be supporting evidence that you're worth that large sums of money you ask someone to pay at a future date.

I recall some experiments being done on the engineering side of my university using carbon rod for rebar. I don't recall how well the thermal expansion coefficients of the two materials matched up, but the professor claimed a concrete + carbon bridge would last 200 years, due to lack of rust.

This was in the late 90's, so we still have a few more years to go before the test is complete. ;)
