A man walked into a meeting with a fent sucker in his mouth treating it like a toothpick and I had to hold back my alarm so that everyone else did not ask why I knew exactly what it was. At that time no one outside of post-op, end of life cancer, or major pain management were really aware of this stuff. But to see a guy just stroll in on fentanyl like it was nothing at all was a watershed moment.

Now an addict does not need to steal from a ped surgery floor. You can buy fentanyl straight from China in a properly wrapped packet. Dosage is the problem, mixing dry is not easy, hence the street deaths.

I carried narcan back in the day because some of my friends were heroin users. But I never came across a fent addict, now I can only imagine how much of this stuff is floating out there.

Average people have no idea what this stuff feels like, what the pull is like. In reality you never get away from it; it is always there in the back of your mind but you have to tell yourself that it will destroy you.

sorry for the disjoint mess but I am being hit with the thoughts of those I knew who were lost to black.

Apparently fent is the new black.
I love my MBP, I think its the best yet.

Only point I agree with about the Bluetooth headsets is that they're expensive. Although I must admit, the bigger ones do make you look a bit like Frankenstein's monster

I go running all the time with my Soundsports and have zero issues - battery life can be measure in weeks, they never fall out, bluetooth is rock solid, and the best bit is I don't even need my phone they can operate directly from my watch.

Introducing RemoteScore for Remote Teams
I've been about half a block down this road. Thank God, the university office determined it wasn't worth the universities time to invite the lawyers -- and my project is happily open source.
" forcing people to listen is only going to worsen the situation you describe."

Personally I don't think these companies should be legally forced to support freedom of discourse on their platforms by the government.

I think that consumers should force the companies to support free speech, and they should punish companies that support censorship by boycotting those companies into bankruptcy.

The world is a better place when it is free from censorship. Censorship is still bad, even if it is legal and done by private parties. Censorship supporting people and companies should be bankrupted by the market.

Tesla has been proceeding according to his plan for a bit over a decade. He foresaw the value of it in 2006. At the very least, his insight accelerated the development and adoption of electric cars and solar power.
They reversed stance so quickly, it seems plausible this was a calculated move to increase news coverage of Coinbase.
>As for the rest, it would appear I'm thinking more from an (American) legal perspective and the implications of various measures that might be taken,

No you are seeing me state that is a violation of Freedom of Speech and jump the erroneous conclusion that I desire some kind of law, or legal penalty for that violation. I do not.

I merely want to people recognize that it is infact a violation of the concept and stop defending companies when they violate the concept or at least stop saying that is "not a free speech violation" when it clearly is.

If you support the censorious actions have the balls to call them censorious and stand by them.

> Am I violating someone's right to free speech if I refuse to listen on account of exhaustion? Would my old college dormitory's "quiet hours" be considered "societal sanction"?

Aside from the fact this is strawman lets address it anyone

Inaction on your personal part of not listening would not violating the other persons right to express themselves.

You showing up where the person is speaking with a bull horn to suppress their speech is, setting fire to a building to shut down speech is, blocking the entrances to building where speech is taking place is, boycotting advertisers is, calling employers and getting people fired is.

See all of the examples I give are POSITIVE actions people use to SUPPRESS the speech of others.

As to your college dorm "quit hours", this likely would not be a free speech violation either provided the dorms where not promoted or advertised a public space where people free to express themselves and that the hours where clearly known , established and enforced uniformly. How if there were not published quite hours, and tue night there was a vegan rally that was allowed to occur, but then on wed night there was gun rights rally that was shut down because of "quite hours" then yes I would consider that to be free speech violation.
How do you know the other commentors in this thread don't have a position in Tesla?

As far as I'm concerned you didn't call anything out, merely pointed out that some forum commenters may have positions in the companies they talk about, which as far as I'm concerned is their good right and which they do not have to disclose. It's not as if they are in the employ of the companies and regardless, Chuck volunteered that information.

See also: every other thread about listed companies.

If HN required disclosure of positions in companies being discussed I'm sure they would add it to the rules of conduct. I see no such requirement. And any disclosure is voluntary, gracious and yet could still not be true, so you still can't base any decisions on it.
Scientists should publish more detail about methods in general, but we're a long way from the kind of precision that would enable robots to duplicate everything. A good deal of science happens with graduate students literally building their own apparatus.

LiS8 + silicon batteries would be a dream: immediate 8x boost in capacity for a given weight and the size is halved.

Unfortunately the damn thing tries to swell to 200% size when you charge it and lasts for six cycles. Someone may figure out how to make it work but most likely itll use nanotech (like a123 did with FePO4, or a graphene coating). The fact is its such a hard problem there are very few ways it could be done cheaply. Right now LiS is only applicable to very, very niche applications. SolarImpulse used them. They come at a very high price and limited longevity.

month-first or month-last doesn't matter, until you add more time periods. YY/MM/DD and DD/MM/YY are both fine, but MM/DD/YY is braindead. Month-first gains the edge, though, when you add time-of-day, since no-one does ss/mm/hh
Absolutely. Mieszko I chose to convert himself and his realm to the Roman faith for both political and religious reasons. Had he chosen to accept Christianity from the East (remember, this was pre-schism), it would have entailed the adoption of Cyrillic.
That's a very (puerile) characterization of the libertarian view of freedom of speech. It's entirely possible believe both that one should be civil to others and that a centralized body should not actively punish speech.

I spent a few weekends building RemoteScore - a visual indicator of remote friendliness of remote teams.

> Over and over.. like a crack addict..he simply can't control his desires for the eye-cocaine.

Dude, he's 5. He's not some addict. Relatively few 5-year-olds can control their desires in a consistent way. I mean "kid with his hand in the cookie jar" is a saying for a reason.

Be a parent, limit his use (or remove it altogether), and do other stuff with him. Take him to the zoo, maybe karate lessons or something, to the park, etc. I'm sure he'll be fine, as long as you don't continue to do stuff like denigrating him in public as some kind of "internet addict" in the throes of his addiction to "vicious" content (a kid's show, I presume) when he's only 5.

Maybe talk to him about how doctors say kids should limit their TV/YouTube usage to keep healthy. When my kids weren't getting enough veggies and fruits at that age, it deeply impressed them when I took them to the doctor and he talked about how important that was, and they then competed to see which sibling could reach 5 fruits and veggies a day first. The APA (American Pediatric Association) has released guidelines on this stuff (media consumption), if I'm not mistaken.
>How do you know the other commentors in this thread don't have a position in Tesla?

I don't.

>merely pointed out that some forum commenters may have positions in the companies they talk about, which as far as I'm concerned is their good right and which they do not have to disclose.

Agreed and agreed.

>If HN required disclosure of positions in companies being discussed I'm sure they would add it to the rules of conduct. I see no such requirement.

I never said HN required it. Our difference of opinion is in the difference between is and ought. Posters don't have to disclose but they ought to, why else would Chuck have done it in this thread?
I would also like to add Ease of Use to your list.

I have had to help several of my Patrons with basic tech support issues, like setting up RSS feeds in their podcast app. And I doubt that they would be able/comfortable with working with a service that is not as easy and straight forward as Patreon.
Yup. Doesn't play well with others. :'(

Fewer potential customers are going to use (or pay for) grsec now. It's like they decided to productize Linux kernel security their own way, free at first, and it didn't work out how they wanted, so start pointing fingers and blaming others.

It would be nicer if Linux security folks get funding and/or support from their work/customers to negotiate and cooperate with buy-in from the community from the start. If there's some rough edges, then consider starting a consultancy that helps customers configure or adapt the standard Linux security features (ie SELinux, etc.) and attempts to push previously discussed feature additions upstream. There's less drama and fewer headaches when there's a negotiated, common roadmap and understanding than just going full cowboy coding.

Peter Molyneux Explains the Design of Black and White
Problems: 1) email is insecure, 2) it requires two logins, 3) it's not dual factor, 4) it's more error-prone. It's less work [and more secure] to just implement Google or Facebook authentication.

In terms of generating a strong password: most browsers have password generators (which I didn't even know about until recently). They aren't all enabled by default and they don't work on all forms, and not all browsers have them. Browsers also have supported user certificates [which are more secure than passwords, sort of] for like 15 years, but nobody ever uses them. The main reason (afaik) is how shit the browser's UX for them was, in combination with a burden of complexity - and of course you can't use them on random public devices.

I think we are close to reaching an authentication nirvana. If U2F came embedded in all new computing devices, and an open method of securely synchronizing all devices and service providers was used, we could effectively skip passwords, and rely almost entirely on backup codes for the few times they were needed. A lot of laptops and phones come with fingerprint scanners now. If those scanners were used as part of a U2F solution we would have a pretty solid authentication mechanism. (fingerprints are not foolproof, but IMHO they are about as secure as a password)

Segregated witness is nothing to do with off chain transactions. SegWit just moves some signatures around in the block so more transactions can be fitted in each block.

This does have some benefits for off chain transaction networks because it changes what parts of the block are signed and need to be verified. Off chain transaction networks can still work fine with or without segwit though.
My mistake! You are correct.
I'm interested in this as a technical solution, but I'm not sure what content I actually expect to share or see shared on Keybase. Public dropbox links work pretty well for me right now for "ordinary" files.

Member/associate of HTP and Lizard Squad, hacked Linode (at least once), Lenovo, the Python wiki, some game companies; called in a bomb threat on a plane a Sony executive was flying (might've just been a friend of his who did that, can't remember), DDoSed video game services and 8chan for ages, possibly involved with the creation of the GayFgt and Mirai botnets, and much more. Got off scot free because he did it all before he turned 18.

I believe his use of ryan / ryanlol is a mocking reference to Ryan Cleary, whom he hated and considered incompetent. (Could be wrong.) It may have an (unintentional?) double meaning, since that's also the name of the aforementioned "friend" who secretly snitched on him and led to his detainment.

Nothing against the guy. He's intelligent and a good HN commenter. By sheer coincidence I sat in many disparate IRC channels under different aliases over the years that he would always seem to find his way into (probably not a coincidence in retrospect; he just loves IRC). He was very open about most things and generally appeared to be driven by e-cred, revenge/competition, and comedy over financial gain. But some people say he was involved with carding, too. No idea if that's true.

edit: Looks like he recently admitted to (light) carding as well: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14884487
Do not believe it.
The article states:

>"Not just market size — we’re more than 100 times larger market than the Jewish market, for example — but the real difference is the seriousness and intent."

Is that not kind of self-righteous and condescending? What is the implication, that people from other religious groups or those without religious affiliations somehow aren't serious about meeting someone? Or that their intentions are not quite as sincere? Why is this somehow their exclusive domain?
And I have no doubt that they will reach a 10000 unit week. And they will probably have that production capacity. But once their backlog of orders has been filled, how many orders will they realistically have per week? I think that is the outstanding question.

> Congress is all lawyers and no engineers.

Well, congress is largely responsible for crafting, reviewing, and changing legislation, which is laws, so being a lawyer probably makes a lot of sense. Let's not pretend engineers are incapable of making mistakes, or not fully considering the implications of an action and having to review and fix it later. Engineers are largely kept from making too many mistakes by having evolved a strict set of guidelines to and regulations to adhere to. Many of those same regulations that keep engineers in check were put in place by lawyers.
It's a quite a bit more complicated than just increasing the block size to 8mb, actually, and in reality Bitcoin Cash ended up using one of SegWit's key changes in modified form.

The default Bitcoin signature algorithm has quadratic performance due to repeated hashing and if the block size is increased above 1MB an attacker can use this in a fairly nasty DoS attack that, worst case, might be able to fork the blockchain. The BTC/SegWit side fixes this by creating a new transaction type that moves the signatures outside the main block into a separate "witness" and uses more efficient signature hashing. The new transactions appear to older nodes as though they simply didn't require signatures, so existing software keeps working. This also fixes an annoying issue called "transaction malleability" which allows attackers to change the transaction IDs of other people's transactions; all of the data hashed to compute the transaction ID is now signed. It's apparently this malleability fix that makes off-chain payments easier.

BCH essentially replaces the original signature hashing algorithm with the SegWit one but keeps the signatures in the block. Bitcoin also has a hard cap on the number of expensive CHECKSIG operations that can be carried out to prevent DoS attacks and both sides take different approaches to raising that, neither of which is straightforward.

Good lord people, if you don't like it then don't buy it. I swear to god this exact same reaction occurs every time something old starts getting replaced by something new.

Same thing happened with the iPhone 7, even though it came with a very neat little adapter so you can plug whatever headphones you want into it.

Even in some dystopian future where phones are completely wireless, I'm sure you can still buy a little Bluetooth adapter to put on the end of your electrostatic headphones that you wear whilst jogging each day.
This is a little more direct of a connection.

If a someone shows up and orders 5 tons of ammonium nitrate in December and want's it shipped to Washington DC that's very much a reason to decline and possibly contact law enforcement even as a private citizen. Similarly, free speech has never been an invitation to say anything in any way at any time.

Try to build a habit of reading so many pages before going to bed each night.

Start off with something easy like 10 pages per night.

Then increase in increments of 10 pages every week or so.

By the time you're reading 50 pages per night or more, you'll be working through quite a few books per month.
What is an ICO?

(I'm only being half-serious. But it's amusing that there isn't a consistent definition. It's basically "you can buy an asset I created out of thin air that may or may not have any utility.")
"Parcels" is a better translation.
Hey, I'm not taking sides, but just want to say don't be discouraged! Discussing over the internet lacks certain dimensions that face-to-face discussions have. It's hard to sense the tone and full intention of the other party, and thus harder for each side to re-calibrate what they are about to say. Therefore I always have high threshold for miscommunication over the internet.
> why else would Chuck have done it in this thread?

Because he's a decent human being. But that doesn't mean that people that do not disclose their positions are not decent human beings. And that's where we really differ, Chuck went over and beyond the call of duty here, it would be a mistake to assume that others in the same position would do the same because you feel they should. They don't and they probably won't.

Holding HN to some kind of imaginary standard when it comes to discussing public companies is both unproductive and likely will not illuminate but will merely give the illusion that if someone does not disclose their position that they don't have any. After all, who will verify what anybody writes?
