There's also an amusing "failure mode" of induction loops: impatient people pulling up further into an intersection -- for example, aiming for an opportunistic left turn -- and they move off of the loop. The lights cycle; the left turn green arrow which would give them an exclusive phase never materializes.
> Nobody is using bitcoin for buying coffee or sending micropayments to websites.

I was, I've spent more Bitcoins than traditional currencies on buying actual products during last year (electronics, games, hotels, flight tickets, etc.). That ended, 1 months ago when fees rose to a point limit that made such relatively small operations inviable.

That said, I still hope for new cryptocurrencies to provide a solution to scalability issues. Maybe https://failsafe.network/ or maybe something else.

Just finished this book and it made me realize that my team was having endless discussion about the wrong topic - mostly crypto security. Having simple basic security about forging content was not on the radar, input sanitization is still thought to be the responsibility of whatever framework... at least we know where and what to look for.

This is a pretty confused article. The author starts with a list of useful things which he then deems 'too complicated', and ends up with using a JSON based config file. Ok. But the things he listed are not too complex, and the solution is a simple line-based config file of IP addresses:

import netaddr, sys
ips_to_connect_to = [*netaddr.IPGlob(ip) for ip in open(sys.argv[1])]

Those two lines handle points 1, 2 and 3 of his 'nice to haves'. You could easily add 4 and 5 in under 10 lines. You could expand it to read from stdin rather than a fixed file easily enough as well.
This is the seventh time this has been posted. It keeps getting flagged, perhaps because of the linkbait title. If someone suggests a better title, where better means "accurate and neutral and using representative language from the article itself", we can change it.

I'm not sure there's a good discussion waiting to happen here, though. We'll probably just get the n+1-th flamewar about bubbles and whatnot.

I use my yubikey for 2FA (TOTP), GPG/SSH.

I use an encrypted github for passwords storage: https://www.passwordstore.org/

For backup in case I loose my key I have multiple yubikeys, and whenever I setup 2FA on a site I take screenshot of the QR code and store it in an encrypted tarball in my password-store.

To duplicate my yubikey you'll need one of my yubikeys; and the password for the tarball (which is thus encrypted twice).

Speaking of eye health, I wonder what effects programs like f.lux and their newer built-in alternatives have. Despite a bit of trepidation when first giving it a try, after a while it feels very natural.

Since ebook readers have become more commonplace in the last 20 years, I also have to wonder what effects that might have on us. Even on days when I avoid using my computer, I still spend a good couple of hours reading ebooks on a tablet.

There have also been tons of advancements in technology. I don't think high-DPI displays were commonly available, but the technology is increasingly commonplace, especially on mobile devices.

Can you elaborate on where this is coming from? I know you're exaggerating, but in my limited experience I haven't noticed abnormally long yield times at intersections in southern California.
While I agree that Trump is not the stable genius he thinks he is, the drone war existed before. We are speaking of a nobel peace prize winner who seemingly did not have either the ability to recognize the hell he helped create or the b----s to stand against his military advisors to stop it. You can blame Trump for a lot but even when there were smarter people in power, it wasn't much better. I want to believe that Chealsey Manning can change something but do not really believe in it.
A thorough overview like this would be just the thing for me right now. But is this book still applicable/comprehensive 7 years later? I imagine that a lot of today's issues revolve around OIDC/SAML/etc. which this book is too old to cover.

No,

1) GPG has built-in support for this; presumably they are smart

2) GPG has an authenticate bit, which is required on the key in question.

3) You can (and typically will) create a separate sub-key, with the authentication bit set.

Some things have changed for the better. For example, there's been a push to harmonize the behavior of some of the core parsers and APIs. Say, we now have less variability in how HTML is handled across different browsers.

On the flip side, there are also several new APIs and JS features that have some scary security implications. Service Workers come to mind.

The near-complete demise of Java and Flash are the two other major changes since 2011.

Either way, the book should still give you a very robust understanding of the fundamentals (and a mental framework to evaluate the dangers of some of the new stuff).
It can but most likely won’t.
> All I'm saying is that the economic activity surrounding cryptocurrency is nothing like that.

But , that is indeed all you are saying but that does not make it a fact.
That observation is simply Marx restated:

" A similar movement is going on before our own eyes. Modern bourgeois society, with its relations of production, of exchange and of property, a society that has conjured up such gigantic means of production and of exchange, is like the sorcerer who is no longer able to control the powers of the nether world whom he has called up by his spells. For many a decade past the history of industry and commerce is but the history of the revolt of modern productive forces against modern conditions of production, against the property relations that are the conditions for the existence of the bourgeois and of its rule. It is enough to mention the commercial crises that by their periodical return put the existence of the entire bourgeois society on its trial, each time more threateningly. In these crises, a great part not only of the existing products, but also of the previously created productive forces, are periodically destroyed. In these crises, there breaks out an epidemic that, in all earlier epochs, would have seemed an absurdity — the epidemic of over-production. Society suddenly finds itself put back into a state of momentary barbarism; it appears as if a famine, a universal war of devastation, had cut off the supply of every means of subsistence; industry and commerce seem to be destroyed; and why? Because there is too much civilisation, too much means of subsistence, too much industry, too much commerce. The productive forces at the disposal of society no longer tend to further the development of the conditions of bourgeois property; on the contrary, they have become too powerful for these conditions, by which they are fettered, and so soon as they overcome these fetters, they bring disorder into the whole of bourgeois society, endanger the existence of bourgeois property. The conditions of bourgeois society are too narrow to comprise the wealth created by them. And how does the bourgeoisie get over these crises? On the one hand by enforced destruction of a mass of productive forces; on the other, by the conquest of new markets, and by the more thorough exploitation of the old ones. That is to say, by paving the way for more extensive and more destructive crises, and by diminishing the means whereby crises are prevented."

(From the first chapter of the Communist Manifesto)

The idea that capitalism inevitably leads to such crises forcing it to increase levels of exploitation, eventually pushing things too far, is the most central underlying idea of Marxism.
After more trying, I don't actually understand its syntax despite looking at the quick reference and instructions and the language

x,Hx->Mx
Hs
->
Ms

returns: necessarily true

x,Hx->Mx
Hs->Ms

returns: contingent

The only change is newlines. The quick reference says nothing about newlines. What's going on?

To do ~(Hs->Ms) instead of Hs->~Ms I have no choice but to put it on one line, if I try to use parenthesis on a multiline statement it gives errors. So how can I compare the multiline Hs->~Ms with a ~(Hs->Ms) that has the same newline behavior?

It could really use more examples, starting as simple as possible, e.g. something with fruits and colors with all simple combinations of true and contingent and self-contradictory things...

Is this syntax based on the syntax used in some scientific field? I also know some things about logic, but in the field of electronics with logic gates, CPU instructions, bit twiddling and programming languages :)

EDIT: update for hacker news itself destroying newlines
What I did was a more customized version of that, I made a .gitlab-ci.yml file which easily lets you run any scripts of your own to build, with the same end result. Using gulp I had it run in development mode by default with watchers and verbose outputs, yet in the ci file I called a production build that polished everything up. For the front end side, I used pug, sass and babel with a few other js things to make a templating system, which really helped me understand site structures.

They measured throughput for both 4-way stops and roundabouts, with both people who hadn’t used them before and people who had.

Unsurprisingly (for me at least) roundabouts were significantly better, even for people unfamiliar with them.

I agree with you that developing a prototype wouldn't be too hard. But actually rolling it out within a few cities (and getting cities to pay for it) are where I think the complexities lie. I think it's a social or bureaucratic problem more than a technical one.
Way to dodge the question of parody or not ;)
unsustainable is an absolute, not a relative. A road network doesn't have to be unsustainable relative to anything in order for it to be full to capacity at and for there to be no room for any more roads, which is the situation New York finds itself in. It is physically impossible for NYC to have sustained substantial growth to their private vehicle infrastructure, hence "unsustainable". If they want to grow their transportation network, they need to do it via other modes.

And i reject your assertion that New York has the best possible conditions for transportation infrastructure. A lack of space, a huge demand, and a corrupt mixture of local government and unions don't make for an idea development environment.

>> Yeah, once upon a time, murder was legal, and people weren't "murdering illegally", so why the need for a law against murder?

The POINT is that the parent claimed Facebook is acting illegally, my point is they were not!. There's no argument against the law itself to be found within that, you can stop trying.

>> Well, if you aren't interested in reality, why are we even discussing?

What are you talking about? I am discussing reality. You must be missing the point again, which is the following: Even if something is illegal in Germany, you can not enforce German law on every company that stands to profit from a German audience. Therefore, if you want to use German law to "teach" those companies, you're out of luck.

As a German myself, I am very glad about this, because (for example) I don't have to wait until 10PM and verify my identity to consume government-sanctioned pornography, as German law would require. You don't see a lot of people asking for respect and enforcement of those laws, yet as soon as it comes to "hate speech" the nanny-state-conformists come out of the woodwork...

>> German law itself limits its geographic applicability, and therefore that limit can be changed just as any other rules in the law.

The porn law applies in the same way that the hate speech laws apply, insofar as they're dealing with German "customers".

We have, and always will, accept cryptocurrencies

Essentially because every HN post concerning cryptocurrencies has become a joke, and long threads of cryptofanatics and cryptosceptics throwing shit at each other. No one is willing to just have rational conversation on the points they agree/disagree with, but instead write attacks like: "Hahahahaha this is hilarious, where are all the bitcoin {fanatics,sceptics} now" that don't contribute to the discussion at all. You will always get downvoted by one of the sides. Personally, I would downvote you if I could for adding yet another stick to the bonfire.

To be honest, this looks like a quarrel between baboons that have invested too much, and baboons that have shorted too much. I've never ever seen HN in such a state and hope to not see it.
I'd be interested for you to expand on your last sentence, because it seems to me that we would have no choice but to respond massively. Once Kim demonstrated a willingness to launch an offensive attack killing or endangering civilians, we'd have to assume he would do it again, and would therefore have to do our best at destroying all his launchers, and make every effort to kill him. He knows that, of course, which is why he's not going to do anything so stupid.
> the original chain would simply die because of the difficulty

I just want to point out that difficulty decreases when there's less mining. Difficulty would not be the problem. Bitcoin would just be more vulnerable to a 51% attack with less hash power.
You paid flights with bitcoins? Who accepts them?
Google don’t seem to be the leader in all honesty.

I would say that the current leader is MobilEye as they actually have nearly 30M cars with their hardware and or software out there with various degree of driving assist and autonomy and they are the only single vendor that adds millions of cars each year to their ecosystem so far.

On the contenter side I see NVIDIA as being the closest out there to a complete solution that is production ready for L4/5 autonomy out there.

Gold mining is terrible for the environment, but so is mining any proof-of-work based cryptocurrency. The amount of dirty electricity used for Bitcoin alone is staggering.
> It's not 51% of people, it's 51% of computing power,

Cool, so in reality a lot less than 51% of people can screw over every else.

Again, what is it that ETH provides society that's new and useful?
"That said, I still hope for new cryptocurrencies to provide a solution to scalability issues"

But, if this is indeed a new cryptocurrencie, it will drain value out of bitcoin, and bitcoin will then be worth nothing.

The only scenario in which bitcoin isn't a bubble and has intrinsic value as a currency, is if the payment problems you mention, as well as liquidity issue, are solved by bitcoin itself.
Sure, but it's a bit much to say something like this, don't you think?

If that was the case, there wouldn't be homepages (USER.github.io).

Projects reside on USER.github.io/PROJECT, so they assume you will create a homepage as well. If you're a user, that's your personal homepage.

These all fall in the "buy restaurant stuff" category:

1. Cheap stainless steel prep bowls. [0] They're just $1-$3 each, so you can get enough that you never have to hunt for a bowl while chopping or cooking. Get a bunch of little ones, a few 3 or 4 quarts, and a couple of big ones for making salads.

2. Big square graduated plastic containers, for storage and transport of liquids. [1]

3. Universal pot lid. [2] Use this to cover any pan to finish or hold proteins or veg, or steam reheat starches.

4. Cheap spring-steel tongs [3] Get at least three, they're $2 each – use 'em for everything. Much less fussy than the hinged tongs.

5. Sous vide, as mentioned above – I like the Anova.

6. Shoulder tenders. This is the cut of beef from the teres majer muscle often sold in restaurants as the "petite filet" – because it is as tender as filet mignon, more flavorful, and much cheaper. Sous vide at 128F for 2 hours, sear and eat.

Why do you think that bitcoins cant disappear tomorrow?

Does it have government as a guarantee of value? (currency, bonds)?
Does it have intrinsic underlying value (commodity, real estate)?
Does it have ownership rights (equity)?

True about the comments for json. But you could use: "_comment": "Some comment" or a similar convention. But you'd have to handle it somehow when instantiating objects.

I do like python style docstring comments that are available in the object graph.

Which would allow for checking (live) config comments at run time:

config.server => "10.x.x"

config.server.comment => "This is on a private ip network because..."
Ro (artificial language) (1904)
If we know exactly how much resources we have, how much resources we usually spend on things and we ask people what's most important to them now and in the near future, we can calculate the allocation of resources that does the best job of satisfying peoples needs.

If a lot of people think new cars are important, then a computer can allocate a lot of resources into making new cars. This would of course mean we'd have less resources for everything else and peoples needs start changing as a result. If you can easily get a new car but notice that the quality of healthcare is decreasing, the next time the system asks your opinion on resource allocation you vote for more healthcare.

So in your example I guess there would be a democratically decided amount of resources dedicated to making new cars. If that amount is high, the computer would probably give him a new car as soon as one was available. If it's low, society would be fixing and sharing cars and using the freed resources on more important things.
I wonder how many of this have change with now monitors being LCD LED, CCFL or even OLED instead of the traditional CRT. Specially in the "Radiation Emitted" department.
