I have dated 2 fashion models. One was signed. They purchased Instagram followers. I didn't know what that even meant before either of them (and still don't really care). They did it ( and realistically, it's just part of that world) to remain competitive in an extremely tough industry they were wrapped up in. While I'm still not with either and things didn't work out and the whole thing is a little ridiculous, I would not consider either of them to be engaging in criminally fraudulent behavior.
Is there any windows / linux utility that shows the number of ECC errors corrected since the boot?

If not, AMD should write and promote one.

Very curious on how often it happened for normal home/offic usage.

I used to work for a silicon company who took a embedded network switch system with ECC logic to some nuclear lab for testing to verify/showcase the ECC functionalities.
Yeah, thinking back, Facebook was largely a convenient way to find and keep track of my friends' IM handles. And their phone numbers, back in the day when losing a phone meant losing all contacts because they're stored on the device.

It's already got an events organisation feature :). It's called 'gatherings' in patchwork (and other clients too.) Here's a screenshot of a gathering: https://imgur.com/PbB8R9q

Nope - it's not limited to simple message feeds. For example, I was able to implement a chess app and integrate it into one of the scuttlebutt viewer clients (patchbay): https://github.com/Happy0/ssb-chess. Someone's working on a Go (game) app too :).

There is an app for discussing and reviewing books too - and some of the messages for this app are rendered on the main feed too (alongside gatherings and other things.)

It's a cesspool, imo. My Facebook is overwhelmed by extremely ugly political obnoxiousness these days, which makes it almost worthless (I'd have to hide 3/4 of the conversations/posts by friends). Between that and the junk content and general corporate spam, maybe 3-5% of what I've seen on FB in the last year has been legitimately valuable social content. The majority of people I know hate Facebook as a product now. They don't just not want to use it, they hate it. Facebook knows what their product has become, it's so bad now they stopped trying to pretend otherwise. They're basically facing their Microsoft Internet tsunami moment, they either quickly adapt or fade from here. If they fade, what will happen is a dozen new social competitors will spring up and begin stripping fringe corners off the core FB network, amounting to tens of millions of users in eg North America. It'll simply break up at the edges, and retain a large foundational user base that will be a lot less engaged.
Yeah but... It's still a chicken curry every day...

Don't get me wrong, it's just my opinion. I would get bored, I can't talk about other people.
The only people left now are people who REALLY like to show what they are up to.

I can only hope things are not going to be so self centered anymore.
There's a doctor in Hungary specialized on Lyme who treats it with doxycycline or amoxacycline and azithromycin.

Just don't take antibiotics by yourself, go to a doctor.
Well, the benefit is that they do double damage (I think) when they break, so it's not as bad as it could be, but yes, they do seem to break too often. Then again, it depends on your play style. I'm a completionist and item hoarder, so I'm running around with almost an entire full inventory screen of high-end weapons and using the crappiest I have (which is still pretty good now) to fight with. Having to choose to drop a great thunderblabe with extra durability because there's a chest with something better and I'm full with better weapons is excruciating. I would agree they break too quickly through, as going through multiple in a battle is sort of ridiculous. Lasting maybe 2x to 3x as long might be good (or having a difficulty level that affected it).
Caring about others, and caring about what others think of you, are two totally separate things. The petty nonsense in, particularly in grade school, is NOT something kids should worry about. Because it's bullshit.

It's more than incongruity. Context is king. "I like being ignored" is sarcasm. But followed up with "No, really, I like being ignored. Its like a super power! I can ..." is serious (sort of).
Main problem is that Facebook is too public in that most friends are actually acquaintances. People are less likely to share intimate updates with acquaintances and instead will only post generic neutral, non-controversial things which dont’t drive deep engagement.

The pain of "not quite bash" ultimately is what put me off xonsh as my daily shell. Also losing it whenever I SSH'd somewhere.

The latter problem could probably be solved with a wrapper which would pipe and execute the shell (or a bytecode interpreter ala shuttle?) automatically - but I've seen no alternative shell project take this part seriously for the problem space.

Well I think the heatmap is the best thing from strava. I wish it was embedded/viewable in the strava ios app to to browse running routes - particularly when I'm in a new place. I've also discovered a load of footpaths near me just by browsing it on the website.
This is such a great idea.

Apparently some exist:

What is your take on Ion? https://doc.redox-os.org/ion-manual
I'm a quasi-active user and never realized my updates were public beyond the people who followed me. It has absolutely no UI indicating it the way, e.g. Facebook does, and does not show me any activity of people whom I do not follow.

Doesn't look like they're actually public, though? https://www.strava.com/athletes/22230419
Well. I will definitely be setting this up then. Thanks for the pointers.
Not sure what your point is...

Paris doesn't have enough subway lines to handle all transportation needs for everyone, but that's not because they ran out of space to put the subway lines in.

It's likely because they have covered enough people's transportation needs that it wouldn't be cost effective to put in more lines.

I use it, and it's really clear you're sharing your location, speed, and heartrate data with Strava and other users. There is a Facebook-like newsfeed that shows where your friends have been working out. You can see who else runs your routes and how fast they are. Sharing this data is really the purpose of the app.

If you purposely disengaged from this social part of the app and were trying to use it as a simple stopwatch and mileage logger then uploading data may seem weird. But that's not the clearly intended purpose of the app.
Oh, er, sorry about that.

I think you're talking about Shell Oil in the 1990's, and their requesting the Nigerian military to help them deal with violent protesters, and allegedly peaceful protesters as well. Yep, that sounds like a problem that needed addressed.

That pales compared to the atrocities that have been done in the name of communism. It's frightening that young people have forgotten those lessons, even the oldest of which is less than 100 years ago.

The ideal of sacrificing the individual to benefit the group is where communism always ends up, and from there, it's never a long slide to the disappearings, the executions and the starvation. The American ideal of protecting the individual, even at the expense of the group is much more inline with the world I want to live in. Happily, you still end up with a strong group, since it's composed of motivated individuals that feel safe.
Indeed Fish is bloody amazing! I've been using bash for my whole life and now as I've seen Fish I don't want to see any other shell (except some new one that might happen to be made even better) ever. It feels like a quantum leap of the same kind like the switch from ancient printer-oriented Unix shells (that didn't even let you edit the part of the command you've already entered) to bash.

As for the scripting language part, however, I have always been wondering why do people use headache languages like bash/sh when we have Python. Might anybody have a clue - I'd appreciate if you could share.
A standard office visit tends to be about $100 in my area, sure. That'll get me to talk to the doctor. But if I want to test for Lyme that's a blood test. Now the lab is involved, they may or may not have their own billing department and they won't tell me for anything how much or even ballpark estimate of what it will cost so that they are covered if they need to do more.

So I talk to the doctor and they say XYZ tests need to be run. Okay, now I know what I need exactly and get a price, right? Nope. I just get the run around and "It depends on the insurance" and "We will bill you later" and "No it's probably not $5000" and straight up "I don't know"

Oh, okay, so I need to call the insurance company then, huh? Nope, they won't tell me either. I've tried. They just say "It depends". Even when I know exactly what labs they are going to run. I can say "I understand it might change if they need to run more tests." Nope. No idea.

Sometimes they can give you a straight answer but very often they will not.

It's hidden on purpose. It is confusing on purpose. Insurance companies don't want you to know what's going on. The doctors offices don't want to share "cash-only" info publicly because insurance companies will demand that price. The insurance companies don't want to share the info because people will complain. Etc etc it is not that easy when you go to the doctor for more than the really simple things.

So that's a different approach: integrate a remote debugging GDB server into the program (could be a shared lib that is dlopen-ed, by the way). Then that server is always used, even in a local session. The server is deeply integrated into the program, taking advantage of the protocol to communicate between application code and the debugging client.

It sounds promising. A particularly interesting area is events:

The program could generate custom notifications.

As a frequent user of Strava I disagree.

The app makes it pretty obvious and easy to control whether your profile is private or public, and if it's public, you can easily hide any activity. They've even got a "privacy screen" feature where you can set a geofence, and activities that start or end within the geofence are automatically made private.
Umm... we do, in fact, hear from them.

Awesome :).

Let me know if you need a hand with any of the setup.
The part that irks me maybe the most is that every one of these bikes is both an advertisement and a physical business. Dumping by individuals and businesses is regulated/forbidden. Food trucks are regulated. Newspaper stands are regulated. A corporation can't just set up a dozen kiosks in the middle of a busy sidewalk. Yet spamming a thousand rental bikes willy-nilly around a city is ok?

This whole thing is like a lab experiment in unregulated business expansion. I can't believe it's gone on for as long as it has.
I'm curious if it's related to the concept of push notifications.

If I have my online network of friends configured in such a way so that I get a notification on my phone, I don't need to stay on Facebook all day wading through cruft. If a close friend posts something, I'll get a notification and check it out. I read/watch and I'm out.
> That was especially true for tweets that include numbers; their accuracy rate of 80 percent more than triples previous efforts.

Which is to say that previous efforts had only half of the true positives a random number generator would have had. Neat.
I used bash first, then zsh. You have to try fish, it shows a "ghost" of the first matching autocompletion on the same line, which changes dynamically as you type. It also has a cool memory effect for figuring out history completions based off the directory you are in.

Like csh on FreeBSD, alt+(up/down) can be used to search history for arguments instead of lines, so if you do something like

touch some/long/directory/path/to/file
....
rm so<ALT+up>

fish will search all individual arguments (correctly handling quoted spaces, etc) for arguments starting with "so" and it'll suggest the path in question, even though the head here (`rm`) differs from the original (`touch` in this case).
Yes, but you probably don't represent the average Strava user. Clearly there are many who are sharing publicly who don't realize it for some reason. Design, IMO, is part of the reason.

This isn't news. This has been well known for a while now.
I agree. We want to add an explainer video and better screenshots and all that jazz, but we are still pre-beta, well beta at midnight. It's all on our roadmap. Right now, we are trying to focus on core functionality, testing, validation, feedback, etc...

At its best, invoking commands and pipelines in shell is much more pleasant than doing the same in Python with subprocess and so on. The flipside is that at its worst, shell is a horrible language.
I'm running into lots of issues with existing type definitions with this release. Especially from web pack, lodash and protractor.
It's not discrimination to not hire people who are inexperienced. That's called running a business properly. It is discrimination to not hire based on age, any age, but only older workers over 40 are provided protection under U.S.law.
This also reveals dead-zones where people aren't feeding Strava data. So it is possible to look for the lack of data as well. (Remember the possible CIA site, it has a line around the border, but nothing inside it, because no electronics allowed inside...)
Shell is my favorite domain-specific language. But many (including myself) would argue that domain-specific languages are generally better embedded. Many projects aiming to mixing shell with general purpose languages find a nice embedded DSL for subprocess/pipeline management. Some others find a convenient way to run shell commands or pipelines by mixing grammars and trying to disambiguate them. [Shameless self-promotion] I've been working on a project that aims to not only have a nice DSL for running process pipelines, but focuses on making a syntax for using all functionality of the host language as a command language, called Rash[1]. It is hosted in Racket, and can be embedded in Racket at the module or expression level, and also normal Racket expressions can be embedded in Rash (they can alternate arbitrarily deep). It supports process pipelines, Racket function/object pipelines, and mixes of the two. It's still alpha and has a TODO list a mile long, but I've been using it as my daily driver interactive shell for months and have loved it so far.

This is nothing you couldn't already do in Javascript with a simple <div> and some code. The dialogue element just gets rid of some of the boilerplate HTML and implements some common functions you'd use for such a modal popup as an official API. If anything this will prevent people using 3rd party code to handle modal popups.

>Adding a listener over a close button to make it nearly impossible for the user to close it.

Already possible with Javascript and any old element.

>Having a close button that when pressed closes the modal but also triggers an undesirable path.

Also already a thing by using an eventListener or callback.

>2 Buttons that send you into an loop of death in creating modals.

Also already possible with just Javascript.

>Hijacking the Escape (and Tab) button

Broken record: Already possible just with Javascript.

TL;DR: Don't run untrusted 3rd party code

Here's a button that when you click overlays a div (which could also be added through Javascript but I'm feeling lazy) that tells you to press ESC but I hijack the ESC key to tell you that you pressed a bad key: https://codepen.io/anon/pen/paJqbm

Show HN: Follow multiple live crypto charts on single screen
> Strava was giving away the location of military bases

I'm not sure how to evaluate the risk here.

I'm sure the location of these bases are already known by other governments through various other means. But maybe they can gather some insight into the level of activity at a base, particularly if they monitor strava data over time.

OTOH, this info might be interesting to low-level adversaries (terrorists, ...) to find "weaker bases" which might be easier to attack.

Anybody informed can comment on the actual risks?

Fantastic.

One final question/request (for which I'd happily pay for!) : it would be awesome to have a path away from Observable's infra if desired. Say I _really_ want to host a particular notebook locally: is something like that planned? I know this is not a trivial feature since notebooks can call other notebooks, but I'd love to develop stuff on Observable knowing that should the worst happen and it doesn't exist anymore, I can run it all locally on my webpage.
Blaming strava is absurd. I am a strava user and privacy setting on all my runs by default is that routes are hidden. I have to manually go and edit the run to make it visible to public. As long as strava used the data available publicly I don't see as their fault. It is ridiculous to blame them. I find the privacy setting on strava clearer than any other social network but if military personnel for the sake of vanity end up posting their run publicly then there is anything strava can do. Even without the routes data released by strava, I can simply hover over iraq or Syria and see the running or cycling routes. This feature actually has been of great use to me while traveling.
basically. guess thats what the whole g+ circles thing was, and im sure fb can do too now, but if i have to spend basically any effort thinking about who's going to see it I'm just not gonna post. (or worry about who won't see it because of the black-box algorithm)

I'm prob not the target market anyway, as im paranoid and social media and human interaction in general is strange and frightening to me, but that's a major part of the reason i never post anything.

Sorry but the OSM navigation features are not comparable with Google Maps and even less with a dedicated satnav. Not to mention voice navigation, which is an essential thing to have in car, as well as live traffic info.

My preference would be to never see anything, ever, that was shared more than say 50 times. As soon as something is “viral” It’s usually just a timekill. It’s not relevant to me.

So a simple tweak to the news feed would be to just stop showing me what my friends “like” or “re-share”. Just show me what they say, or post or show directly. That’s it.

For a really dramatic change: remove the ability to pass on content alltogether.
One use case would be to have some debug_printf() in the program that shows up in the debugger, no matter whether the debugger is remote or local. It doesn't go to some console, or file, but always to the debugger.

Also IsDebuggerPresent: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms6...

and other things.

The debugging experience on Windows 20+ years ago was was ahead of debugging on GNU/Linux today, I'm afraid, so this stuff is above criticism from the "M$ SuX" angle.
