I think you mean second password rather than third, but as a user of ProtonMail, I need one username, two passwords and one 2FA token to get in, with only login username/password being kept in a password manager (and all password managers get confused by multiple passwords, so I couldn't keep them all even if I changed my mind and wanted to).

ProtonMail may have the option (I am not aware of this) to have login password and mailbox password set the same (and not prompt you twice if this is the case), but they are still separate passwords. You, as user, control whether you want them to be the same or not. If you chose this, the application then has an option for convenience to use the same input for both tasks. This is opposed to a service where they are always the same, so that the password send to the backend is the same used to decrypt your data.
(Playing devils advocate to some degree:)

And maybe European states should. The USA and China (maybe Russia to some degree too) are the only states that have control over the main tech players whose products are used by their population. If there ever were to be a war-like scenario again with internet embargos for Europe, the internet would be a very empty space, smartphones would degrade to next to useless bricks and businesses that switched to the cloud would lose their IT backbone.
NEW ENTREPRENEURS ARE BREAKING THE INTERNET
Apologies for completely misreading your post. And I agree with everything you've said.
Given perfect reliability, faster (lower latency) doesn’t matter for streaming video because all of the traffic is pipelined (even for live, encoding lag would dominate the few hundred ms maximum delay from light speed). And the user already paid their ISP for the bandwidth, so why would distance factor into the cost?
He probably needs to register the mac address with the university dhcp service so that it can get a routable IP address.

University networks used to be pretty wide open but the days where you could just plug into any available Ethernet socket or hop on the wifi anonymously are gone.
Many countries provide free (you don't even have to buy overpriced books or any other scam) education on all levels (including PhD). Even the middling ones like Poland. You simply estimate your rough requirements for different specialties and fund that many students. Admissions can become somewhat cutthroat (50 applicants per slot are not unheard of), but that only works for the better.
From what I can gather making good management decisions is a lot like making a good estimate for a software project. There are two ways to go about it: (A) do a lot of work to break down the problem to manageable parts, put a well-reasoned number on each part, then sum up the parts with the necessary tolerances and risk factors, or (B) just go with your gut.

I see a lot of (B). Hilarity ensues.
"The outcome is that telcos lose a lot of negotiating power to content providers."

The percentage of content providers that deliver to telcos directly is almost zero. Netflix is one of the biggest notable ones, but even they don't always do it.

So which is it, and how does this thing actually work?
OEMs are pretty ok with it for Android, so I don't see why they will do otherwise with Windows.
Note that the A11 has two "big" cores, and four much slower but power efficient "little" cores. If they were making an A11 variant for desktop use they would have the power profile to use more big cores.
"People who make over $200k aren't getting as big a tax break? I don't feel bad about that."

According to the CBO, people who make less than $75k get a tax increase by 2027 (on average). People who make between 75K and 500K get a very small tax deduction on average. Blue state residents get a tax increase almost across the board at >200K<1M. Almost anyone who makes more than a million a year gets a sizeable tax deduction.

> Maryland actually tops US News and World Reports

We are talking about cities, not states. The city of Baltimore has been consistently failing, which has been run by democrats for a long time. Not talking about the entire state.
We already have this system. There are income based repayment plans that cap and hire forgiveness at 20 years for undergrad or 25 for graduate.

It’s 10% of AGI annually for Revised pay as you earn.

Please don’t call for more government when we already have those solutions.
Are you advocating for a flat org structure and if so have you seen any examples of that succeeding at scale?

I think many people who argue against the value of great management have just never worked at a company with great management. Great managers are as awesome and empowering as bad managers are terrible and soul-destroying.
Is anybody running a project with webpack that has a 20s rebuild time?

Or if somebody has switched from webpack to parcel, can they give an idea of the performance improvement?

We've got a moderate sized app, and webpack rebuild (typescript, server-side react, client side js bundle, css export) is less than 3 seconds.
> incentivize more efficient driving (more occupants per vehicle)

Not just more occupants per vehicle but more efficient use of road space. You can fit 4 motorcycles in the space it takes for 1 car. Look at the biggest metropolises in the world and motorcycle use is significantly higher than in the U.S.
People in expensive states are not somehow better off, dollar amounts are just higher in both the labor and real estate markets. It’s better understood as localized inflation than localized wealth.
But it already was, not long ago(Windows RT) and those laptops didn't sell at all. I don't understand why Microsoft is even trying again.
I'm going to say something that probably isn't that popular here... all education is a good thing and valuable. The problem is that the costs have made it such that the only education worth pursuing is STEM, which IMO is a travesty.

We have that in the US as well. And you do have interest - variable rate tracking inflation.

In the US, the minimum payment is $0 and forgiveness happens at 20 or 25 years.

CDNs are a neccesity for latency and distribution, little of it has to do with your origin provider's quality. There are still some pretty terrible providers out there, some of them are HUGE and have hundreds of thousands of satisfied customers.

I'm assuming because most of the content serving happens in Open Connect [0]. And while there may be a ton of server work involved in billing, api, auth, analytics, etc, it probably pales in comparison to the raw transcoding if you take actually serving the encoded files out to clients. From the article, "9,570 different video, audio, and text files" are generated for one show, from 8k resolution source files.

Seems reasonable to me.

Idk. I'm a high income tax payer in a blue state. According to my calculations, I'll be paying less taxes next year.

In fact, according to my calculations, almost every one will be paying less, except a miniscule population that will have their taxes raised by a couple of hundred per year. And even that might get legislated away in the conference.
Name one?
I do not believe anyone knows conclusively whether getting rid of those deductions will increase or decrease real estate prices. If the benefit of the deductions was already built in to the price of real estate, prices should come down if you remove the deductions. If removing the deductions limits the supply of homes for sale, prices could go up. My rent is going up every year as it is, so either way I would rather have a more level playing field between renters/owners.
Landlords don’t charge their own expenses + some fixed margin. They charge what the market will bear. Expensive blue state housing markets are at no risk of seeing rents fall below landlords’ costs.
> I can imagine that that would stimulate a huge influx of people who do that simply as an excuse to take a 4-year vacation (of sorts).

The current trend is to run universities and colleges "like a business." In this model, students (and their parents) are the paying customers. The mantra of good customer service is "the customer is always right." This is ultimately the source of much of the grade inflation[1]. If you tell your customers that they are "wrong" by not giving them the grades they prefer or by making them work harder than they would like for those grades, they will react in ways that ultimately hit your bottom line. Undergraduate education should not be like a vacation. Any student who treats it that way should be flunked out after their first term.

Having taxpayer funded "free" (or dirt cheap) higher ed wouldn't fix these problems over night, but it would help remove some of the weird incentives that are currently undermining the core mission of actually educating people.

I don't actually recall when the new system went live for all users, but the old system was live simultaneously for at least a couple months to ease the transition. I wonder if customer support actually lowered the bar during the transition because of a perceived or actual increase in customers locking themselves out.
I have very mixed feelings about this part of the tax plan.

For years I've been concerned about the increasing geographic gap between rich and poor in America. All talent, capital, and entrepreneurship is increasingly concentrated in coastal cities. This is impoverishing the interior and at the same time driving real estate hyperinflation on the coasts.

The middle class and the young get caught in a vice here. You either live somewhere with affordable real estate but no career opportunities or you live somewhere where you can advance your career but can never afford a decent home and can never escape ever-increasing rent. Either way you are screwed. Rot in a backwater or spend everything on real estate and never accumulate savings.

I'm tempted to support anything with the potential to reverse this horrible trend.

At the same time I also see this as unfair. Coastal blue states already collectively pay more in taxes than they receive from the Fed.

I'm a bit torn on this. I'm also torn on the corporate income tax cut.

The rest of the tax bill seems mostly bad, so on balance I am not supporting it.
That's true. Maybe the issue is that when there's only a 'down' and an 'up' button, people infer everything into it. Maybe we should have an 'up' button for interesting posts, a 'flag' button for posts that don't add to the discussion, and 'agree' and 'disagree' buttons to make it clear that it's a different thing from upvoting a comment.

Then people could turn on or off some way to see which posts are heavily agreed or disagreed with without downvoting interesting posts just because you disagree. You could even have a system where you mark people you respect and then only see which posts they agreed with to get a more personal feel? Might be an interesting discussion board idea to pursue.
"People in fly-over states get a small tax cut, and maybe can buy a few extra weeks' groceries for their kids."

And where are you getting this? It is demonstrably untrue by 2027. Read the CBO report.

Oh I absolutely agree with you.

But in the windows kernel rooting exploit were really everywhere before that started being deployed.

We can blame "everyone runs root all the time" and "disabling uac is a common tip on all windows site because users are used to be super administrator", and they all come back to Windows security model and default being complete shit until Windows 8 ((7 was still super admin as default user right?)), but I certainly won't blame Microsoft for finally cleaning that mess.

Go back less than a decade back and most windows system of everyday users would have some kind of crap running as super root, that was terrible.
My oven timer has an option not to turn off the oven in the rare cases when I don't want to turn off the oven, but I can see this is going nowhere. You use timers differently. You apparently want to know the time left in another room more often than you want to know the time left in the same room, like I do. Maybe you have measuring instruments in the wrong units, too. To each their own.
No expierance with the Roku, I have several FireTV's

I also have my phone on me, I still have no desire to use it to control the FireTV when I can just use the arrow keys on the remote, select the video and press play.

if I want to search i will use an actual computer and create a playlist or use the 'watch later" flag on youtube and play from that list on the firetv...

it is not "47 steps" I find using the phone to be cumbersome and battery draining

ohh and I doubt I am in the .01% of normal consumers that want that. I maybe in the .01% of Silicon Valley type Tech people that want that. But your every day consumer, every day moms, dads, grandpa's etc want exactly what I describe, which is why the FireTV is so successful

That's where a TARP-like buyback would come into play. Negotiate to buy private student loans and extinguish them also. I know there are charity-type groups that do this with mortgages, though I'm having trouble finding any links at this current moment.

But, honestly, I'm not a huge fan of logic lines that sound like, "We can't help everyone, so therefore we should help no one." We should absolutely strive to help everyone we can. And if there's still a population remaining afterwards which requires help, then we can talk about why they weren't helped before and figure out whether and how to reach them also.

>Federal policies already heavily favor funding Red, rural states over more urban states. It "sounds" true when you think about a person/household but when you factor in the other state services being funded (i.e. roads) it falls apart.

Much of that funding goes to subsidies (farming, energy, etc) for which the whole country enjoys the benefits, if not proportionally. A state like SC that has a disproportionate amount of military bases is going to receive far more per capita government funds, though the local SC taxpayers only get marginally more benefit than the rest of the country.

That's not to say you are wrong that rural states get better de facto tax treatment than urban-focused states but it's a bit more intertwined than it sounds.

What do we (not) know about Domain-Driven Design?
It's always been something of a laptop thing? Microsoft since Windows 8 has made it somewhat clear they think Windows needs a strong presence on ARM tablets to A) avoid Intel hegemony, B) remain competitive with the iPad in that space. "It doesn't run any of my apps," was perhaps the biggest complaint about Windows 8 ARM tablets, so it makes sense that x86-on-ARM was a big strategy push before the next attempt.

Beyond that, rumor has it that Microsoft hopes selling tablets/laptops with ARM will open the Windows ARM space enough in the meantime while the Windows team is finishing the next version of key Windows shell components (nicknamed the "Composable Shell" or CShell), which would be make the Continuum experience for say Phones stronger because instead of switching entirely different shell applications (start menu, taskbar, et al) between form factors, the same applications responsively adapt themselves.

College demand is insanely high because of education inflation. Employers require a college degree for most white-collar jobs. I think a better solution would be to rework college. It doesn't make sense that you need a four-year degree including a bunch of irrelevant classes to get your foot in the door at any white collar job. The standard for higher education should be probably leaner and more focused on useful skills for a particular area. And if hiring was based more on objective tests of knowledge and ability, you wouldn't have as many people spending lots of money to go to prestigious universities.

(I don't know how or if any of this could be accomplished.)
Outside of a narrow range of people (and jobs), how often is a topographical map even relevant to daily life?

I can think of two, maybe three times in my entire life I've even had a reason to look at one.

It's like saying you need to know how to read aeronautical maps. While a pilot might need to, and maybe those doing balloon based projects or drones might as well, the average person couldn't possibly care less.
Someone would still have living expenses so it's not like they could just hang out at school the whole time. If someone really wants to work in restaurants and be a professional student who cares?

Realistically, having college remain free helps people who later in life want to change careers, but need some education to do so. We pay a lot of lip service in the US to retraining the workforce, yet do little to facilitate the training.
That's probably the initial build, though, right? If you've already got dev-server running and it has to rebuild, it shouldn't have to rebuild the entire bundle again.

>where did this concept of college as a 4 year vacation come from?

It seems to be something in the echo chamber of HN / startup world that has become common over the past 5-6 years. They seem to not understand that having a college degree is pretty much a requirement for any decent-paying job these days or hopes to have one that will in the future. From an economic standpoint, people with degrees have higher wages.

The real issue is the cost of colleges and the loans that people take out to attend. Rather than addressing that (though some commenters have made the attempt) they'd rather say for kids to not go at all and thus limit their future opportunities for work as well as intellectual growth.

Hi, my name is Dmitry. I'm a passionate software engineer with strong background in low-level (MCU real-time kernels, C, Assembler), and experienced in higher-level technologies as well: Go, C++, JavaScript, and many others. Author of the well-formed and carefully tested real-time kernel for 16- and 32-bit MCUs: TNeo: https://github.com/dimonomid/tneo , which is now used by several companies.

Apart from professional activities, I'm a hobbyist in Lisp, Ruby, Node.js, Angular.js. Learning internals of the Linux Kernel, since this is something I'm truly excited about.

One of my hobby projects is a geeky bookmarking service written in Go: https://github.com/dimonomid/geekmarks

Skylake S/SP is the current architecture which officially launched this year.

Kaby Lake will most likely won’t appear in Xeons and the next refresh will be either Coffelake or Canonlake.

This time around there is also a big difference between Skylake S/SP and Skylake this isn’t Haswell where the only difference was the corecount.

Skylake S/SP has a different FPU structure AVX512 and SIMD CD support as well as a new core to core fabric interconnect and a few other changes.

Mmmm, so... sub 100MB for a bundler + compiler + etc?

- Xcode, for iOS/Mac Development, is usually around 5GB (and
no, even if you remove every single simulator, it's still over 100-200MB).

- Android Studio is roughly the same deal as Xcode.

- I've not used Windows so I can't say for sure, but I'd be surprised if the various tech there doesn't follow this pattern.

77MB is nothing, and if you care about this, you're caring about the wrong things.
Bingo. Working and middle class say, “fuck you, you’re rich.” Upper class says, “fuck you, only peasants get paid in wages/salary.”

Same with housing. The rich see single family homes as a good investment at any price. The poor see anything other than BMR as not for them. No one wants to house yuppies other than a constituency which is too privileged to have liberal credibility and too poor to leverage policies driven by the rich.
Regarding 2:

This tax law has specifically baked in expirations of some portions. When they come up for renewal the GOP will whine and moan about the unbalanced expenditures and they'll either lapse or be supplemented with additional cuts, the corporate side of these cuts is not subjected to this.

It's fine to say "Oh, things may change down the road" but today they designed a tax cut that will benefit the rich, I do hope we're saved from this ridiculous hand out down the line, but that will be by the actions of other people, these politicians have written the bill as they desire it.
