What's the problem? Nobody is going to memorize every single piece of relevant information, and they're certainly not going to memorize all the changes over time.

I'm thrilled that my GP is willing to slog through research, or look up things she's not 100% sure of. Sure, I've got access to much of the same information. She's got the training to interpret it though. We were discussing vitamin supplements and fortification at our last visit. I wasn't entirely sure about a couple of the claims she made, so I dug up some articles and emailed them to her. A couple days later I got a response with an interpretation of the articles (essentially, nothing to worry about).

Or, how about this? I've got a rare variant of a fairly common condition (such that a GP probably wouldn't see this firsthand). I'd seen a specialist at a world renowned hospital before. Those visits were expensive and not very informative. Visit with the GP? Huh that's unusual, let's see what the options are. Her conclusion? You can go through a variety of expensive tests, but unless I'm symptomatic the best course of action is no action. Now, I was curious, so I looked all that up after the visit. Fuck if I know how to discern how expensive those tests are or whether or not I'd see any benefit. There's a ton of information out there, but the big bucks are spent on people who a.) know how to find it and b.) how to interpret it.

To bring it to a tech setting -- let's think about Jenkins. I've cobbled together a build pipeline for chef cookbooks for one of our apps across our prod and non-prod environments. Sure, we pull credentials from the Jenkins credential store. No, I can't tell you off the top of my head the exact syntax to pull a secret out of there. But I can tell you where I'd look for instructions. Being able to be productive with Groovy (yuck) is part of my job, but it's not the only part of my job. Being able to find the relevant information is far more important than having to memorize it.

UK is GMT time. Do not confuse with UTC, it's not the same.
Intel notified vendors, (such as MS), so I'd assume the U.S. government would get these patches as well, I would also guess that any large customers of intel, (including the Gov), got some level of advanced notice, just probably not before any other large customers, which I do not see a problem with.
I think it refers to being able to go up shallow rivers to pick up or drop off, not being limited to deeper shore ports.
In the same way people are customers of Freescale or Infineon because they buy cars? I hesitate to use the car analogy because there are recalls, but you still take the vehicle to the company you bought it from, not the supplier of that faulty part.

People are using smartphones as a replacement for face-to-face interaction. That's not just symptomatic.
Not only that, Intel produces most of its chips in the US. The one plant they have in China used older processes, had to be approved by the US government and should have been repurposed to make memory chips. If you sense a pattern...
The white lettering on black background makes this all the more ominous.
Smugglers would prefer shallow draft ships, because they couldn't dock in a regular deepwater port. A shallow draft would enable them to load/unload anywhere along the coast.
What have you actually learned? That somebody you don't know anything else about lives in that house? Presumably, you could have assumed that somebody you know nothing else about lives in that house. Somebody you don't know anything else about lives in every house.

I actually share your intuition that this is somehow terribly revealing, but I think this is a broken intuition that needs to be updated for a more technological age.

Sorry for my even later reply. It took a couple surgeries to remove my thyroid and lymph nodes it had spread to. And a few rounds of radioactive iodine treatment and scans to get the parts that had spread through my lymphatic system. My last treatment was 10 years ago during high school and I've thankfully scanned clean since.

Management has been staying on a relatively high thyroid hormone replacement dose and periodic radioactive iodine scans. Worst case scenario, the scan requires a grueling couple weeks off of my medication and on a low-iodine diet so that any remaining thyroid cells are completely starved and ready to absorb the radioactive dose. Best case, the recombinant thyroid-stimulating hormone, Thyrogen, is available and my insurance is willing to pay for it because it reduces prep to a pre-scan injection.

Well, as far as I can tell, going to work based on sunlight levels is one of the main "benefits" of DST. However, like I said, it makes no sense to me. It seems you have two options to get this benefit:

1) Have workdays begin at x o'clock in the morning most of the year, and x+1 o'clock in the summer
2) Change the whole meaning of x o'clock in the summer

To me, the overhead for option 1 seems way lower. Then again, the "benefits" of timezones don't make sense to me either. The exact same logic can be applied to those as well - if workdays in Europe begin at x o'clock, they could just begin at x+7 o'clock in the US east coast.
A good idea.

The solution isn't to ban or reduce smartphone usage, like you would if smartphone usage itself was causing problems. The solution is to make it easier and more accepted to hang out face-to-face.

Ban the phone and keep the isolating culture and you wind up with even more isolated teens.

I can't imagine the stress and working conditions those "in the trenches" IT folks dealt with over those ten days.

Hopefully they all got rewarded with, at minimum, a few days off to relax and recover after everything got sorted out.
> I wonder if that doctor has ever had major surgery himself and been told not to use painkillers?

Since when is that a requirement for knowing what is best for your patients? The doctor is basing their judgement on current consensus within their field, which hopefully involves careful studies.
There might be, but from past experience it wasn't a good idea to do so.

This is a B2B web-app, and in a previous version (more of a predecessor) we had it open in safari, and we found that people wouldn't ever close the tab they were using, leading to hundreds of open tabs.

It also means that if someone went to the home screen, they would have to tap "Safari" to get back, and in my experience they didn't know to do that, so they would just click the homescreen shortcut again, opening a fresh new tab, and need to sign-in again...

You think people are turning on Strava to track their smuggling activity?
This is anecdotal, but when I was a teen, I was bullied, and online was an escape. The idea of those bullies hitting up a Facebook, Instagram, or even just texting insults 24/7 would probably be jarring and depressing.
When I was a teenager I didn’t think further than 5 years ahead. I did however write goth poetry, become Wiccan (and thus got all mopey about being at a Catholic school), get upset how unfair it was that UK law looked down on my sexuality (it had not yet equalised the gay and straight ages of consent), and frustrated how ridiculous it was for the Prime Minister to veto every EU thing he could in protest against the BSE-related ban on British beef. Ended up writing loads of letters to newspapers about politics of the day before internet comments were a big thing, then going to university really worried if my student loan would cover everything.

I understand your point now. You're talking about spreading medical records between hundreds of third parties with terrible security practices, and I'm talking about an ideal decentralized system with lots of clever cryptography a la the blockchain.
But there's now glonass (russian gps) and galileo (eu gps) and I just learned that India and Japan have systems. I want my receivers to use as many of those as possible. they can go out and be spoofed and when the next big one comes, who knows what will be working.
That doesn't seem true - when the US extended summer time it ended up costing more electricity.

And if it was true, you can just extend it year round. Winter is when summer time is really needed anyway.
There are a scarce number of digitally/cryptographically signed copies on the blockchain. The art itself is still infinitely replicable, owning the signed "authentic edition" is not. That does not mean something to everyone but means a lot to collectors and passionate fans.
Any reason why store last 4 bits as is and not just making a LUT out of 4 sorted 5-bit values?
DST is not an employer decision, it's a government decision. If a goverment decided that work/schooldays begin an hour later in the summer instead of DST, everybody would still be living in the same rhythm.
There's no evidence in that link.
Am teenager. I'm not too worried about my future because I have some decent development skills. However, a lot of my friends are depressed because a lot of these issues really aren't so far in the future as to be "too abstract." It doesn't take a huge mental leap to realize that the college educations we're about to drop $50k+ on might not help us get jobs in the near future, or that working until we die will sort of suck, or that a pregnancy is an instant game-over (but it's okay, because apparently teens don't have sex anymore), or that most of the jobs we're going to end up getting are meaningless and will soon be automated away, so why not just off ourselves right now? It's scary. I sure as hell hope that tech now is the equivalent of the factory jobs of the 40's, so by the time my skills don't matter, I'll be set or dead.

Shouldn't this be an easy way to break the hotel? A hotel implements this policy, the person trapped in that contract reveals the terms neutrally. Third party concerned citizens overwhelm them with bad reviews? (They're not bound by the terms of the contracts)
I get it, and what I was responding to was the "no benefit" comment. I carry research articles and books on my phone that I can read with any spare moment. It's amazing actually, and I don't see the point of throwing the baby out with the bath water.

I'm not a "committed libertarian", even if I would be classified as a libertarian according to my views. Any ideological commitment is dangerous, whether that's to libertarianism, or anti-libertarian mixed-economics-ism.
Why assign value to anything other than food and shelter? It's enjoyable, people like it. If that terrifies you the world must be a scary place.
Don't forget that the code is now trivial: It's easy to see corner cases since the logic is so small and therefore quite "round". There is not really room for code "breaking in strange ways". It's rather that we can now think more mathematically and more uniformly about the program's behaviour.

It doesn't matter anymore if a given curiosity (like "-" options) is categorized as a concession or just as the way it's supposed to be. In any way it's the way that makes more sense from a mathematical standpoint. If there really was some client code depending on a curiosity, it's also easy to spot and change. But usually that's not even needed.

Ah, so in that case yes, it's safe from the extreme majority of XSS, because I use Content-Security-Policy headers.

Any cookies would also be subject to XSS, unless they have the HTTP-Only flag set, in which case the whole point is not worth discussing because JavaScript cannot access it or even know it exists, so it would obviously be useless to any javascript.

Localstorage (and friends like WebSQL and IndexedDB) and Cookies serve different purposes, and having data in IndexedDB is no less "secure" than having it displayed on the page. In both cases an XSS attack means game over.
> What teenager doesn't talk about or think of their future?

I don't want to get into why, but I didn't. If someone doesn't really think they have a future, what's there to think about?
I find it interesting the article doesn't talk about physical health. Many of the mental health drugs cause extreme weight gain which can lead to depression.

These reminded me of a ... "computer game" distributed on a CD (yep, that's at least 15 ago) where you would play a hacker accessing everything through a cli interface (it was fairly realistic, or so I remember it: never played but bought a copy as gift for a friend).

You would get "contracts" being asked to penetrate increasingly sophisticated companies - and you started putting together a worrying picture about some sort of conspiracy.

Can someone help me remember the actual name? And is this still available somehow?
Exactly. I'm all for constructive criticisms to make technology better, but these services (like Strava) are reaching millions of people. We're only talking about this military base issue because we became aware of it. How many other externalities are waiting out there for us to find? We really can't expect tech companies to proactively account for all of them; that's literally impossible.

In this case, the sensitive data being uploaded is entirely the fault of the user. I'm actually shocked that soldiers would track a run around a military base. It takes about 10 seconds of thought to realize how bad of an idea that is.
I'd love to see something like this become a feature on HN/reddit: above the normal replies there is one special pinned (and perhaps even moderated) thread which is strictly used to gather links to original articles / alternative sources / studies / ...

Their parents would have been very stressed and the kids would have unconsciously picked up on it.
We're talking about teenagers here, give 'em a break.
Teenagers might not think in these terms, but their parents do. Aside from parents directly projecting their vision on children, kids can read anxiety or stress from their parents and be ‘contamined’ by these feelings.

That is what Iceland did. Before the 1960's Iceland observed the daylight saving hour by switched from Iceland standard time (GMT-1) to GMT. In 1968 however, Iceland decided to stay on the daylight saving hour making true noon in Reykjavík often around 13:30.

Having grown in those hours I have to say it kind of sucks. You wake up in darkness most of the year. If you wake up at 7:00 local time, that means you wake up at 5:30 solar time.

There are loud voices (including psychologists and medical experts) that are advocating for moving Iceland back to Icelandic standard time (UTC-1). They claim the lack of sunshine can have detrimental effect on the sleeping cycle and therefor the general health of the population. Adding an extra hour of sun in the morning might be helpful for the general population.

Yes. I teach at a college. Every day I see scenes like a couple walking across campus, obviously walking together, but each on their phone instead of talking to each other.
This is a good point. It’s the opposite of charging a higher price to signal that your product is premium.

They keep lowering prices and people think their products are cheap and poorly made.

In reality the quality is comparable to furniture 2-3 times the price.
That's god for someone saying that! All those researchers have never heard of the notion, with their measly PhDs and all.
> Let's keep it on summer time, having light at 4 pm is more valuable than at 4 am.

The vast support for permanent summer-time makes me think that either a lot of people are early birds or people just don't understand that DST is simply a way of forcing everyone to get up an hour earlier to "magically" get more sunlight in the evening.

If you don't like getting up early you should hate summer time.
I don't have access to the full text, but this certainly isn't mentioned in the abstract.
Of course we wouldn’t think negatively of being told first; that’s the whole point.

Assuming you were trying to make a juxtaposition though experiment — what you should be asking is “Would China’s people care if a Chinese chip maker notified the US government first of vulnerabilities in their hardware?”

Not trying to dismiss all negatives; just biased against this particular flavour (kids getting sad or unruly is surely because of the things they enjoy, as opposed to e.g. broken economy visible every day through their parents). So I'm not dismissing e.g. sedentary lifestyle issues.

> The fact that we're becoming a society that constantly compares ourselves to the idealized versions of other people shouldn't allow us to dismiss the obvious negatives of those comparisons

I think social media is actually a step up here - the time spent comparing ourselves to idealized versions of our friends is the time not spent comparing ourselves to the apparent presence of all those celebrities and rich people, which was a constant of the previous century. Mass media broke the availability heuristic; the generic dysrationalia it caused in people is clearly visible. Which would be a kind of tech negative I'm not denying.

I wonder how much of it with smartphones and how much of it was cameraphones (which may or may not be smart).

When I was a kid you can make an idiot of yourself and nothing would happen. People would see and they may make fun of you, but that was it.

Now if you choose to make a fool of yourself (or do it accidentally) you may get your picture taken/video made and now there’s proof forever to show other people. And it can be posted online. Where people on Reddit or something else will vote it up and share it.

I imagine there’s a level of self censorship and self-consciousness the previous generations never had to apply to themselves. Having that kind of low level stress around all the time can’t be great.

And that’s not including any pressure to look GOOD on pictures taken of you/taken by you.
From my research when I had this issue, (and i'm going from memory here, so forgive any inaccuracies) it looks like it's because Safari uses Safari's rendering engine, while WebView's use "WebKit" with a lot of modifications.

As far as I heard from various sources, they are in many ways completely separate codebases, and the reasoning is that since WebKit is very tightly integrated with the OS, it takes them much more time to include new features into WebKit than it does in Safari.
> I wonder what we could do to change the process so that useless laws actually get removed

This was a California Proposition, which means it was citizen driven legislation. As a result, legislators aren't keen to interfere with them. To get rid of it, we're basically going to need another proposition which nullifies the reporting requirement and changes the way legal settlements around Prop 65 are handled.
For me, the most surprising thing is that Maersk was able to carry on during those 10 days without any IT:

> "We only had a 20% drop in volume, so we managed 80% of that volume manually. [...] Customers were great contributors to overcoming that."

That makes me think that either a) IT isn’t quite as essential as we software people like to think, or b) the full potential of automation hasn’t been achieved yet.
