No, webpages get to the contents of clipboard only after explicit user interaction.

On the other hand it does not work this way in the other direction. Random web pages can manipulate your primary selection and overwrite it with random garbage (this primarily happens with various attempts to make copying stuff from the page more "convenient", pretyy comonly resulting in state when it is simply impossible to copy said thing into say rxvt directly). It is somewhat ironic that chrome's address bar uses some magic to prevent this from happening, while the same magic is not applied to websites.

You can also get cheaper batteries and larger panels off Craigslist for much less. You can easily find much larger panels for around $100.00 - same kind you see on roofs. Batteries are more difficult to find cheap, but 6 volt golf cart batteries are readily available and low cost. Sometimes you can also find the 12V 35 AH wheelchair batteries (same as what the author used) cheaply too.

Point being, if you look around, solar electric generation at a small scale can be done even cheaper than purchasing off Amazon for some of the components (inverters and charge controllers are mostly exempt - unless you go to a hamfest).

for 30 days shaved off their sentence.

Vasectomies are offered for men and hormone implants in the arm for women.

Eh, I think the big feels are overblown. It sounds to me like a relatively small amount of time shaved off of a sentence and some people might view this as an opportunity to get free birth control rather than coercion.

It might help to know how much of their entire sentence 30 days represents. If they are serving 31 days, that is nearly the entire sentence. If they are serving six months to a year, it is a meaningful percentage, but not huge. If they are serving more than a year, this might seriously be a nit, an excuse to give them free birth control.

I am willing to hear reasoned arguments to the contrary, but I am failing to see what the big deal is.
There are still some complex factors at work with making it optional.

Good point! I think the next step in this project would be to hook it to some device with high constant consumption, like the fridge, to make sure the energy gets used up every day.

These studies try to point out that things are binary, but its not of course. You have to remember what they are measuring in general, stable vs. unstable. For example, drinking is bad when it becomes destructive. Two-three bottles of red wine per week is ok, unless you do it to forget things.

Generally a good way to do this is via GPG subkeys. You keep your master/certifying key offline, in your safety deposit box, and load a subkey onto your Yubikey. If the Yubikey is lost, you can easily revoke the subkeys and generate new ones.

Now if your project has a good enough documentation. you will start getting some pull requests. it will go uphill from there.

The Magnus Archives is a great horror podcast. It's mostly-independent pieces of short fiction, but start at the beginning because there's definitely a meta-narrative.

Also good is The Bright Sessions, also fiction, about a psychologist for people with superpowers. Also start at the beginning of this one.

A new one that's quite interesting is Ear Hustle, produced by and about the inmates of San Quentin prison. It's a fascinating look into the reality of prison life.

The only thing holding back gRPC is JS web support. If it had that it'd be time to drop swagger completely. As it is you need to go protobuf -> swagger -> js lib, but it's cumbersome and doesn't work 100% (e.g adding auth keys, etc.).

Will there be any progress on JS web, or can it just not be done at all with HTTP1? Even a subset of features for basic GET/POST would be fine...

Afaik we can already program industrial robots by showing them what to do. Robot records movement in its actuators, then keeps replaying over and over.

And we already have machine learning agents that can observe your behavior and learn which news stories are "good" news stories and which aren't. (algo newsfeeds). You could use them to observe a magazine editor and after a few issues, you'd have a robo editor.

Eeesh that's a lot of Stoke.

Place names in Britain are extremely arbitrary and I wonder how this impacts. Some of these don't feel quite "right".

Here's an interesting story that explains my thinking:

There's an area of Salford called Irlams o'th Height. This used to be called the Height as it was elevated over the Irwell.

There was a family in the 18th century who owned a pub on the Height. This was the Irlam family.

The pub, officially the Park Horse, was locally known as "Irlam's". It was literally "Irlam's on the Height".

As the area grew, especially during the industrial revolution, the entire area was just called "Irlam's on the Height". This has continued to this day - nobody really questions it.

There's also an area in Salford called Irlam. This is on the opposite side of Salford and has nothing to do with Irlam's pub (perhaps except that may be where the family name originated). The area was called Irwellham - a hamlet on the river Irwell.

Salford, to finish, I think is naturally due to a ford. Probably a ford in one of the rivers, perhaps the Irwell again, since Salford emcompassed much of what is now Greater Manchester.

Long winded story out of the way, to generate British sounding names, take local natural landmarks/typically British surnames and suffix with "ham", "ton", "chester". Must warn - many will probably exist!
They are, but they also host any OSS project for free, which is the only reason I know about the brand "GitHub". I think you severely underestimate how valuable that mindshare can be. Also, they depend heavily on products which depend on OSS projects for their product.

It only makes sense that GitHub would want to reinvest in security for their own supply chain. The only problem is that most other companies don't do enough of the same.

Actually, everything I wrote is a fact, and you can verify it. SF rents went down as recently as 2012, and are currently in a pronounced, acute period of hyperinflation [1]. San Francisco's population declined rather dramatically from 1950-1980 [2]

I'm sorry if this doesn't fit with your preferred narrative, but citing opinion articles does not provide data for your position.

[2] https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/2FrCiZiCNaMFiUqWC_RK8sh3NnU=...

Edit: even your sfist link confirms the basic facts, despite its (inaccurate and hyperbolic) headline. To wit:

"Dips in the population, urban flight, and a decaying Edwardian housing stock — much of which was built between 1907 and 1910 and was in great disrepair by 1970, when areas like Alamo Square were extremely "low-rent" and dilapidated — may have made life cheaper for the hippies, but that all began to change by the early 1980s."

So yeah...SF hasn't "always" been an expensive city. No more than any other city, anyway.

Imagine owning an Etsy shop, but having a robot automate the entire creation process. Imagine...
Well, for starters it's an abbreviation, whereas -> or != is an approximation of a symbol, so that makes it different from the rest. Also, you're on a website that has no www in any part of its website, so it's not nearly as ubiquitous.

I generally think of these folks as scientists and engineers doing work in the real world.
It absolutely dates back to the Great Schism. And the (Roman Catholic) west has constantly been antagonising the east. When the Orthodox requested assistance against the invading Muslims, the crusaders instead conquered for themselves, even sacking Constantinople. How about the Uniate churches? How many times have western powers (Poland-Lithuania, Germany, France, Great Britain, etc...) invaded or attempted to invade Russia? How many times has the west even allied themselves with Islamic empires to attack Russia? Even in modern history, there's a ton of anti-Serbian (read Orthodox) propaganda relating to the Balkans, ignoring the atrocities of every other side. How about the Greek default? The invasion of Cyprus by Turkey. The CIA in Chechnya. Colour revolutions (which all targeting majority Orthodox countries). And so on.

Yes, it goes back to the Great Schism, however it's not Russia which has repeatedly attacked the west. It's not Russia which has a military alliance on the US or Europe's doorstep.

And relating to Lithuania, the earliest conflicts between Lithuania and the then Duchy of Moscow were initiated by the Lithuanians. And today, NATO troops are in Lithuania. To respond to a 'Russian' threat we all know will never happen, given the whole NATO thing.

Edit - Anyone want to explain how I'm wrong?
Agreed things are a mess there traffic wise further out - but -

Part of the problem with DC metro is that the suburbs where it would make sense to expand the roadways are full of multi-million dollar homes owned by rich politically connected people (not just several hundred thousand dollar homes owned by mere mortals), plus you have the 4 'local' state governments (dc,md,va,fed) plus cities (e.g. chevy chase, arlington, etc) and bazillions of agencies (e.g. park service) throwing their hat in the ring too..

E.g. hypothetically, why should the northern tip of DC (and therefore the fed) pay to improve a congested road full of traffic between rockville and chevy chase? and why is my mansion being demolished and not yours etc.
We've been using grpc-web from Improbable successfully for internal services. I'm working on a more production scale application soon that I'm planning on leveraging grpc-web for.

> How would this be any different than government incentivized vasectomies?

Incentivized via jail time is functionally equivalent to criminalizing non-compliance, even when it's characterized as a sentence reduction (it's equivalent to an across the board sentence reduction, with new imprisonment for those who do not cooperate.)

It is, in that sense, coercive.

> As I understand it it's already common practice to discourage people with genetic diseases etc from reproducing

Doing so in threat of imprisonment is also despicable.

> As I understand it it's already common practice to discourage people with genetic diseases etc from reproducing

Even were sterilization coerced by imprisonment for non-cooperation to acceptable when the person subjected to it had a diagnosed with a genetic disease (which, I should emphasize again, it is not), doing so because of the presence of a traits that has a loose correlation with a broad class of conditions, some of which have a genetic component, would still be significantly less justifiable.

Hash value is just a value picked out of some domain. For most hashes this domain is Z_{2^n} with n usually divisible by 8. It is then convenient to represent that as hexadecimal number, but there is nothing special about that particular encoding. For purpose of generating secure password you can even use said hash as seed for CSPRNG and then use it for FIPS 181 random password generator algorith or something similar.

>But can you patch the ridiculous "find next" shortcut key to ctrl + f/enter from ctrl + f/ctrl + g?

Yes this is one of the things that I am really annoyed with gedit. All searches (to my knowledge) in browsers and IDE's work by pressing enter to get to the new search entry.

The only exception which comes to my mind is vim which has 'n' to go to the next search entry(also completely different to gedit). But in comparison vim, excepts the user to learn a lot of new commands, gedit on the other hand should imo follow the simplicity of other GNOME apps.

To search a keyboard shortcut in the manual and then memorize it for such a simple editor is just tedious and irritating.
