> It's a car. Nobody updates them.

Exactly. You don't think people will get jealous when their friends and neighbors rave about how their Tesla just got this great new feature that installed itself overnight for free?

This is exactly what the author was talking about: automakers are still fighting the last war and trying to match feature bullet points. Tesla has changed the game.

> If it actually started to hurt existing automakers

Automakers are already aware of how much everyone hates buying a car because of the Stealership Experience (TM). This is just another way Tesla has changed the game and for structural reasons their competitors won't be able to catch up.

It has many parallels to cell phones and Apple with the iPhone: for years the old giants (Nokia, RIM, Sony-Ericsson) floundered without a competitive response. There were deep structural problems in the way the manufacturer-carrier relationship was setup that prevented them from responding. They also lacked the ability and will to develop a platform ecosystem - a feat only a few companies have ever really accomplished and almost all of them are on the US West Coast.

There is another parallel: for the first few years their profits and stock kept rising. In 2008 RIM had no idea they were about to be evicerated - they posted record profits! Ask them how well things turned out here in 2017.

If the NSA were law enforcement, that might be a reasonable conclusion. NSA shares a lot more than many people think they should[1], but it isn't like German or Australian local police, or (usually), even local US cops have access. To have reason to seriously consider them in your threat model[2], need to do something that encroaches on the interests of particular power centers. Aside from what most people think of as actual national security-type things, drugs are a good way, as is, apparently, majorly pissing off the copyright cartel.

All that said, I do suspect that we will hear more about surveillance from the various spook agencies (not just the NSA) being laundered to more mundane criminal cases over time. We know this happens with the DEA and FBI; we know the DEA feeds local law enforcement carefully laundered intelligence; I'm really curious about DHS, ICE and major-metro police agencies like the NYPD's relationships, possibly through what amount to cutouts.

I like the colors, but I'd like to be able to configure what's colored and, more importantly, what gets bolded. For me, the bold stuff jumps out and can kind of push the non-bold stuff into the background, which makes scanning that stuff a bit harder. (In case you're wondering, I think I'd skip bolding the username and the owner perms.) Also, I think that setuid bits are probably worth bolding, because you probably shouldn't see them very often.

Change for change's sake much?

All I ask is that the solution presented than headphone ports is better. Bluetooth is so far away from being "better" that literally the only thing it has going for it is wireless.

You'll never see more than tepid support (if any) from the Sennheisers or Grados or whatever because you can't drive high-quality cans without a proper amp, of which batteries can't provide the power to. The audio scene will continue its ghettofication into more shitty 'trendsetters' pimping colorful, low-quality, compressed, lossy plastic trash.

People really want a future full of thes proprietary incompatible walled gardens? This is why standardization became a thing in the first place! Which means the pendulum will eventually swing back into motion -- hopefully wiping the board clean of all these "technologists" and "entrepreneurs"
I completely agree they're not the same things, but you can sort of see the "linear type" notion of "one and only one use" in RAII. Every construction has exactly one use (destruction.) it's fairly easy to see that RAII is a very limited version of a linear type system.

In an affine type system, every variable is used at most once. But C++ instantiations for RAII are not destructed more than once. Each instantiation has exactly one destruction.
I watched that response video. Basically, what he's saying is "these actions that endanger people in the immediate sense are justified". That standard is asking Patreon to make a political judgment. The creators in question were seen endangering others in their work. Period.
I just don't understand why we can't have the best of both worlds. I mean, having the headphone jack doesn't mean not having bluetooth.
War or not, the reality is that Tesla is executing passionately and furiously. As if they are possessed by the the idea that EVs are the ONLY future of transportation. And they are putting their money where there mouth is - Gigafactory, Supercharger Network and S3XY. Not to mention the cross-pollination from SpaceX. Other car manufacturers are still bystanders with mostly hobby projects.
I believe this is an objectively stupid idea.

I want to be openminded and understand why I would buy a phone that doesn't have a headphone jack, when there are phones that exist that do have a headphone jack (AND bluetooth!).

I don't think I can understand these companies' motives unless I can be convinced there's some benefit here. Can someone who likes phones without headphone jacks tell me why they are a better product that phones that do have headphone jacks?
Of those three, the only port with any kind of ubiquity is serial, and yes I would defend it even though I hate it with a vengeance, because it will let me talk to old and esoteric gear. Just like headphone ports.

This new shit doesn't do that.
the last element, as in the alpha omega perhaps.

I relied on wired headphones for a long time.

The problem is smart phones are beginning to ditch these ports: it's not just the article, the iPhone is the latest device to get rid of the headphone jack. (Though you can get an adapter)

Over time though, I learned to manage dealing with wired headphones. Even in tricky situations. The best compromise for me was headphones that allowed the wire to disconnect from the headset with enough force (and potentially be replaced). https://i.imgur.com/Ud1e6QU.jpg

I gave bluetooth headphones a try since I used RS 185, sold them, and sennheiser bluetooth over ears (which I sold). Then, there were $20.00 bluetooth headphones on Amazon. So what the hay, gave it a shot?

The sound quality was decent. Not having to worry about leaving your seat with wires was also pleasant. Especially if you switch headphones between laptop and phones often, you can lose orientation.

So, while I used to have cynicism of bluetooth headphones, I gave them a shot with $19.99 headphones and was pleasantly surprised.
Phone design isn't zero-sum. It's not a matter where you can have extra RAM or a headphone jack, choose only one. You could have both and make the phone a bit bigger. You could have neither and make it a bit smaller. In either case, the difference is not going to be detectable in daily use.

NIST's latest recommendations say "at least 64 characters".

I doubt there's anyone who can make a strong argument that "64 characters isn't enough", and I doubt even intentionally computationally expensive password hashing is going to end up with significant resource usage with 64 or 128 character strings. I wouldn't want my shared hosting WordPress site with a password plugin to need to calculate the bcrypt hash of the entire text of War And Peace, bit I suspect the difference between bcrypting "password123" and a random 64 or 128 character string is insignificant enough to be ignored (but I've never tried benchmarking it, so I'm open to changing my mind here if anyone has links to benchmarks that show otherwise...)
so what's wrong with a pair of USB-C headphones?
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. It's helped with my anxiety and I get so tired I sleep easily at night. Also, there are almost limitless amount of moves and positions to learn which is great for nerds.

> and even the PS/2 port to this day as well

I'm still waiting on a explanation of why upgrading mouses and keyboards to USB was worthwhile? In fact, it was a downgrade on windows 95/98 which demanded they be plugged into the same port after a restart.
so inflation comes in terms of forks in the realm of crypto currencies.

Isn't it how it started with gold-based government currencies as well? every government created their own currency/fork of gold.

A well defined, and common standard that is bluetooth doesn't let you interact with hardware?

I'm sorry this is ridiculous. To imply that a common wireless standard prevents you from connecting hardware basically ends the conversation here, as your point of view is refusing to see both sides.
I'm not talking about those. I would view a Patreon creator's page and then get emails saying "are you sure you don't want to support xyz?"
Like others here are saying, a lot of this seems to be commercial rather than residential use so an immediate presumption of profligacy might not be appropriate.

Having said that, I remember years ago being shocked when someone told me that some service stations in Texas actually use airconditioning on their forecourts. Can anyone here confirm whether or not this is just an urban legend?

There's a video where a Monsanto lobbyist spouts circular talking-points about how glyphosate was safe to drink, offered either Round Up or glyphosate and refused to drink it.

https://youtu.be/QWM_PgnoAtA?t=25s

It's irrelevant if glyphosate alone is cancerous or not, because 99.9999% of deployment is via sprays like Round Up. The combined product, in both animal and human models, need thorough mutagenic research. It's just news shows don't want to give Monsanto free advertising or face libel laws, so they conflate the generic compound with the product.
I relied on Mailling List. I subscribe and create rule to tagged on of them wit `devnews` tags.

Then during my commute to work I started to checkout them.

Then later on, I personally paste links into a Evernote note to make them searchable for later. I then decide to share with the world and start my own mailing list[0]

I also use Hacker News as a way to keep up with development trend and technology. I learn so much stuff on Hacker News by researching on thing people say that I don't understand.

One thing I found really helpful is I stopped worrying about how to find content but more about how to consume content. We're never lack of content nowsaday and if thing is good or worth to know, they will appear in your eyes at some point in some form.

So instead of buying headphones for about $5 which last as long as your phone does, has no connection issus, and can be kept plugged in so it won't get lost, I have to spend $30 for something which is easy to lose and needs to be kept charged (and no, there's no way a little ear piece will have as big of a battery as my phone, and besides for which, I can keep my phone plugged in during the day at work).

And for what?

You hit the nail on the head!

Like I've said in these comments, I'm constantly surprised by which settings people change and which ones they don't, so differing opinions on exa's defaults is nothing new. exa shares my opinion of wanting to see thousand separators and byte suffixes by default; ls, on the other hand, has no opinion because with file sizes that small, it didn't really have to choose what the output should be like.

People have said that in scripts you'd want to just output the file size in bytes, and they're right, otherwise the numbers won't sort correctly. If you're writing a script, though, you're going to be taking more care than if you were just wanted to list some files. I've lost count of the number of times I've listed a directory, given up trying to count the digits of the file sizes, then re-ran the command with `ls -h`, but I've never written a script without thinking about what the output should be like.
Do you mean inflation ?

How much esoteric hardware will bluetooth let me talk to?

Can I talk my best friend's telescope? What about my coworkers oscilloscope? What about the kiln in our chem lab, or the cash register at the deli I bought lunch at? Old CANBUS ports?

What does bluetooth talk to? Headphones, fitness trackers, car stereos... and aside from a few random appliances, not much else.

Yeah maybe in twenty years when everything and their mother was made with bluetooth support, but that is a LONG ways away
GADX is their trading platform. They don't plan on supporting trading with BCC. That being said, no, you don't own a short position. I don't see why that would even be related to this.
They aren't equivalent though -- for example if I memorize "3.14159" then I can increase my precision by just memorizing as many more digits as I want. The memorization I've already done isn't "wasted". With the fraction version I can't / it is.
There's a right way and a wrong way to transition to a new interface technology.

The right way is to offer the new interfaces as options or have them be there in addition to the legacy interfaces. That way people with peripherals that are only compatible with legacy interfaces can still use them, while allowing early adopters to use the new interface.

This is what happened when the USB standard was released. Computers were sold with both USB and the old serial/parallel ports. It took many years to get to the point that serial and parallel ports were no longer standard: well, after most every consumer had already switched to using USB for just about everything.

The wrong way to go about this is what's happening in this instance, where a widely-used legacy interface is being completely ignored in favor of a new interface that has relatively little adoption.

No wonder so many consumers are upset, and that doesn't even touch issues like DRM and the analog hole, where non-DRM-forcing legacy interfaces are clearly better for the consumer.

I am happy about this because my kids mean the world to me and ever since the death of their mother, i promised to always be there for them not only as a father but also as a mother so as to secure a bright future for them...You can contact the brain behind the hack at spystealth.org at gmail dot com for any problems you have that relates to hacking.
Some tags in particular seem very hostile, I guess because they get a lot of bad/noob questions, so the people answering are primed to interpret questions uncharitably. I’m one of those people with a knack for language-lawyering, so the [c++] tag used to be my favourite, but the hostility has driven me away from contributing in recent years.

Nowadays I mainly hang out on the [haskell] tag because it attracts interesting questions and people seem willing to put in some effort to understand and improve an unclear question rather than downvoting and dismissing it.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: it’s a mistake to conflate having points with deserving power. It creates divas at best, and oligarchy at worst. Moreover, it creates disproportionate influence: a downvoter with 10K points spends 0.0001% of their rep to remove 5% of yours if you only have 40.
Hah, interesting! Mine is writing a simple web server (sockets, IO, string handling) and an ultra-simple command line browser (args handling, 3rd party libs for URLs, HTML parsing, etc.)
Examining Media Bias (2008)
I've was integrating with an application recently where some of the header file copyright dates are in the '80. Sometimes there are _very_ old but business critical systems that everybody knows need replacing, but which "just work" and for which the risk and/or opportunity cost of replacing the old system is so high it's not been done.

(This application has had three failed rewrite/replace projects over the last 10 years. They're now onto their fourth one, and they're running 32 months over deadline on a "2 year" project timeline...)

2.4GHz wireless isn't exactly a great solution for transmitting signals between devices separated by a big sack of mostly water either. Supposedly reflections from nearby surfaces can help a little, if there are suitable surfaces nearby, but it's inherently tricky.

Thanks! Configurable colours are something I'd like to get done, too. About half the work has been done to achieve this -- none of the colours are hard-coded, they're all looked up from a big Colours value that gets passed around internally. This value just needs an interface so it's configurable by the user. I've been meaning to open it up to the community instead of just defining an ad-hoc EXA_COLO[U]RS environment variable, but y'know, time.

Because it has $3.5 trillion in GDP, and a $55,000 GDP per capita. That's larger than the economy of Germany, with a 40% higher GDP per capita. It's nearly equivalent to the combined economies of France and Russia.
