Oh god, I've been there too. It's like watching code cancer develop and I'm helpless to stop it. Maybe if they can name an anti-pattern for this that can be readily referred to. I usually try to refer people to Clean Code by Robert C. Martin. But everyone presupposes they are smarter than me and old guys like him and smarter than the people who already wrote and tested and attained widespread adoptance (word?) of whatever library or framework already does this stuff he's re-writing. I've come to believe its an attempt to establish job security by writing vast tangles of custom code all their own. Trouble is when you have non technical managers who see him churning away - checking in loads of code and spending hours 'fixing' bugs (he introduced himself) so on paper he comes out looking way more 'productive' than others - so he becomes a darling.

With liveBook:

- The books are free

- Full-text search for books

- Browser-based

- Audio readings with an arrow on the left / text highlighting to keep up with the book

- On the right-sidebar of a book, it offers to buy the book in PDF/ePub/kindle form.

This is similar to Leanpub's online reading option (https://leanpub.com).

I used it to write and publish The Tao of tmux and made it available online free (https://leanpub.com/the-tao-of-tmux/read). Like liveBook, users can opt to buy the book in DRM-free epub/pdf/mobi and have it sent to their Kindle.

What liveLeak seems to have that Leanpub doesn't is audio readings.

Another cool trick: on the left side of a liveBook (e.g. https://livebook.manning.com/#!/book/grokking-algorithms/cha...) mouse-over on the left side of a section of the book and you can start narration at that point.

Maybe it's a case of self-describing expression. The form of the expression follows the point it's trying to make. Like when you try to explain the concept of redundancy by saying that it means repeating the same thing needlessly or by making several statements that mean the same thing. Or when you describe something by using words that sound like that thing. I'm sure it has proper name.

I have a theory as to one of the leading causes of this blight - screens on Macbooks show text in a way that gives more contrast than screens on most devices. Other devices vary obviously, but Apple tends to be quite far at one end of the spectrum (to my eye).

Designers obviously love their Macs, and while using them produce a design that is at the borderline of what's ok on their screen and then is unusable on lots of others.

I have a big, bright, high contrast monitor and good eyesight (in theory the best case), but it's connected to a Windows PC and various websites render as hard to read. At least I'm savvy and so can use StyleBot to fix the worst offenders!
Curious - what does a low-carb Indian/vegetarian diet look like? It seems like one simply can't avoid rice and roti.
I use KeePass to store my passwords plus other sensible data. It's multiplatform and I can have access to my passwords file on macOS using MacPass, on Linux and Windows using KeePassX, and on Android using KeePass2Android.

I use Dropbox to sync the file through multiple computers including my Android phone. I don't fully trust Dropbox for sensible stuff, but since the passwords file is encrypted by KeePass, I consider that if Dropbox ever gets compromised, they won't be able to access the contents of the file right away without a lot of work.

The passwords file uses a long password, one of the few passwords I still have to remember, plus I use a keyfile for encrypting the file. That file is not allowed to be uploaded to the cloud. I have a copy of the keyfile in my laptop, another one on my Android phone, and another one on a Veracrypt partition in my thumb drive.

It is not a perfect setup, because I still have a few issues that I haven't considered, such as how should I proceed if my phone or laptop bag ever get lost or stolen; but it's convenient for me at this moment.

And 'small time' drug dealers get their supply from the bigger fish. The value in prosecuting them isn't in stopping end users or sales that max out at like $200, it's in working towards shutting down large international suppliers. Because they don't just ship drugs, they ship people and weapons too. Regardless of how one feels about drug use, the realities of the trade are grim.

I think there's also value in defining what people mean by 'small time dealer' in this context. To me, that connotes someone selling a bit of pot to their friends so they can smoke for free or something. People who ship misc. substances internationally and in some cases earn six figures plus annually don't fit that definition in my eyes.

> It's been a few years, but I recall there being research into 100% mapping out crab or ant behavior and it was getting to a point of being quite accurate.

We are nowhere near this point. There are specific, intentionally constrained behaviors in model animals such that we can monitor the activity of specific sets of neurons and make predictions (meaning anywhere from better-than-chance to perfect accuracy) of behavioral output. This is far from "mapping out behavior" for an entire organism.

As for the GPP about a comprehensive look-up mechanism from all possible states of dynamics in the human brain to semantic descriptions of mental states: the problem is that trying to implement such a mechanism within the physical and thus computational constraints of our world will result, with high likelihood, in something that functions rather like a brain.

That's not how entrapment works.

Entrapment requires the cops to push someone into doing something they wouldn't otherwise have done.

Cops buying drugs from a dealer isn't entrapment, but repeatedly begging someone to sell you some drugs after they initially say no would be.

I am not responsible for strangers on the internet reading my comments and twisting them to mean something I did not intend at all. I have been online long enough to know that it is not possible to open my mouth online at all without someone, somewhere wildly misinterpreting my words and having zero desire to make a good faith effort to actually understand my point. I do my best to frame things carefully, but, to some extent, I have simply had to make my peace with the fact that people are gonna people and there is nothing I can do about that.
If I understand correctly, the main problem here is that if a password manager at some point asks you for a password in an online environment, they're subject to coercion. This is especially dangerous if you're using auto-updating code like Javascript in a browser or code on a remote service, because it could get backdoored at any time and you wouldn't notice.

Isn't the real problem auto-updating code with access to a network? 1password.com is certainly another vector that fits this description, but if you don't trust AgileBits to manage 1password.com securely, why would you trust them to manage the app on your machine securely? Or the auto-updating Chrome plugin?

I'm not denying that there's more surface area by creating a login, but I think it's a false dichotomy to say that the app is "offline" and the website is "online". They both have network access, and if AgileBits or a random hacker can change the app's code, they'll do that. That change will be mindlessly delivered to your computer, and the bad guys will have all your passwords.

I am not advocating for murder or the fall of the state. I was suggesting one think about normalizing tribal behavior. "Choose wisely". Death rates due to violence vary dramatically in non-state societies[1], up to 60% is some cases. I was just pointing out the problem with saying that just because things are "natural" (however one would define that), they are the best way of being. With such a sensitive subject I guess one must be much more clear about intentions.

Time for the Underhanded Solidity Contest? (http://www.underhanded-c.org/)
I've been using password managers (KeePass, in my case) for about a year and all I can think is, why I didn't start using them earlier. It is cheaper to generate a long, random password using alphanumerical and special characters than trying to think a clever yet memorable unique password by myself, and probably more secure.

Plus, it's true that you end up storing other sensible things that are not passwords, such as API or recovery keys, because it's acts like a vault.
Wait, it sounds like you're saying big drug dealers are just selling drugs to get money to, I don't know, go on murder sprees? I'm not saying violence is not a part of these kinds of crimes, but I don't think the purpose of their participation is just to enable other, more serious crimes.

That is, I don't think it's very common for someone to say "I want to sell a lot of drugs because I can't afford to kill enough people otherwise," rather than what I think is more common, "I want to sell a lot of drugs because I want to buy a house without a lot of effort."
Thank you both for taking the time to create accounts and respond. Both of these responses are amazing, and it's lurkers/posters like you that make this site great.

One question: some of your responses attack only the credibility of the speaker (OP's 1st, 4th and your 4th, 5th points). Is this typical in scientific discourse? They seem to detract from your analysis to me.
I switched from At&t to t-mobile few months ago. I used to pay $130 for two lines, now I pay $80 for 3 lines. The reception is not great, but with all the perks like movie tickets, rentals the $80 monthly almost pays for itself.

AT&T's service quality is better than T-mobile, but hey T-mobile is almost free.

> This is ridiculous because it lumps refined sugars in the same category as nutritious vegetables.

It doesn't, though. Low carb diets focus on net carbs, which is carbs minus dietary fiber, and guess what: nutritious vegetables have a lot of dietary fiber and a lot fewer carbohydrates than refined sugar products.

An optimal low carb diet is mostly protein, vegetables and greens (especially nutrient dense ones like kale, spinach, collard greens, etc). It seems like your brother-in-law was just ill-informed about his diet.

As far as a meat-centered goes, protein is the only absolutely essential macronutrient. You can live without fat and/or carbohydrates, assuming you get your other micronutrients (vitamins, electrolytes, etc). You cannot live without protein.

When I was working, I settled into a rhythm of being in the office for about 4 hours a day, with almost no free time. No YouTube, no social media, not even checking personal e-mail accounts. I think I would check HN, but I would save the articles to read later and not read them in the office.

It also helps to write down the major things you want to do before you get in the office. When you get there, just start doing it rather than slowly warming up. Also I find that test-driven development helps get rid of this "warm-up" procrastination.

Not everyone can do this, but programmers can sometimes work themselves into that position (e.g. work for a place long enough that people don't question your hours.)

Though I would usually take a break for tea (with no computer) and occasionally a nap... I think those are productive uses of time.

> food from the laboratories of Chef Boyardee is not alluring for people who haven't already acquired the taste.

And that's the most insidious part (and why obesity tends to paradoxically trend up toward lower income households). This cheap, shitty food is extremely attractive to the people most vulnerable to the addictive behaviors; people who already lack most luxuries, are often short on extra time or energy (i.e. working two jobs), and people who work with children in the household (often too tired or want time/energy to devote to their children) and don't cook. You can call it irresponsible or what have you (as many do) but I mean, you go out and work a 12 hour day and then go home and spend an hour prepping a healthy meal. Then do it tomorrow. And the next day. And the next day.
On the spectrum of likeliness to mean shit all, how does "verbal green light" compare to Obama announcing $8 billion toward high speed rail (which was later obstructed by republicans).

I can't help but think of this Simpsons scene whenever I hear Musk talk about Hyperloop and the Boring company.

The problem I tend to think of is that they store the urls in the clear, so an attacker (who can bypass SSL) will potentially be able see which sites you have passwords saved for. There's a writeup that mentions it here: http://www.martinvigo.com/even-the-lastpass-will-be-stolen-d...
The only cloud based password manager I'm willing to use is Dashlane[1]. It's supposedly "zero knowledge", and although you can never be 100% there isn't some bug waiting around to be exploited, it's a compromise I'm willing to make (the lesser evil). They also have several complementing features like encrypted notes, auto saving receipts, credit cards, batch password changer with quite a few major sites.

I'm not affiliated with them, it's just I never see them on HN compared to mainstream applications like LastPass, 1Pass, OneLogin and such.. and I think their services are better. Plus their support is great.

On the other hand, if everybody starts using it maybe it'll become a bigger target for hackers. so don't tell everyone :)
