I would stand up and oppose dense urban housing plopped down in the middle my suburban single-family home neighborhood, too. I guess that makes me an evil, dirty NIMBY, but oh well, I'll live with the label.

A general rule of thumb is that any added complexity to crypto algorithms makes the attackers job easier in the end as accounting for all of the side channels becomes much harder.

Timing attacks are somewhat annoying and noisy to conduct over the Internet, but you can measure the time a process takes with a resolution down to ~15ns[0]. I bet there is all sorts of cross core cache errata that leaks more time than that.

I appreciate the response.

As to some specific points:

> Techniques to minimize failure are quite literally a matter of survival in a professional context; they are often an afterthought in a personal project. Fault prevention and tolerance are often the most difficult characteristics to achieve in any sufficiently complex software system, and their prioritization or lack thereof has an enormous impact on virtually every aspect of working on such a system.

See, I almost see this as backwards. My personal projects often depend on only myself to maintain survival, and I didn't put all that time in to see them go by the wayside so easily. This means I build in tools and resources to help put them up and keep them up, because I'm the only one who can. In a professional context, I've often seen team members not consider these issues because once it's out, it's someone else's problem- if it causes downtime, DevOps, if it's a simple bug, whoever takes the ticket.

> Your employer may not care about letting technical debt pile up indefinitely as long as you can keep cranking out new features and meeting deadlines, code quality be damned. Alternatively, your employer may impose onerous processes to ensure code quality and integrity that aren't really necessary or effective, and which may even be counterproductive. In fact, there's a good chance your employer will understand very little about what you do at all and make demands that are incongruent with technical realities, which you must deal with, sometimes by performing pointless tasks solely to appease them.

While certainly true, this is also something I would never expect someone on my team to be proud of. This is a shameful act, and done often enough leads to the departure of good talent. I expect management(including myself) to do it's job: Manage. This means not taking advantage of your employees often enough to make it a norm.

---

However, the thing I keep noticing about a lot of these is a certain level of assumption of what a personal project entails. That you may be producing something with significant technical debt, that you are coding in a way that isn't trying to work best with others, that you're not aiming for revenue or having to work under unrealistic constraints. Personally, I code at home the same way I code at work: With quality and hope that it will continue to have a life long into the future. Sometimes I don't return to projects for months- and I want to be able to pick them up the way I put them down. The other thing I recognize, is the kind of experience that has to do with working with others- something most personal projects certainly don't approach, but I don't look for them to solve it. Team experience still matters, I just also think personal projects mean something for technical experience.
The fact that something called "ST" is one of the most important libraries in the language, and it's the one that you should choose for State (leave aside the "State" library! that's not the one you want!) shows how for all Haskell's power, it's terribly unusable for trivial reasons that never get fixed due to extreme deference to legacy mistakes. See also: Prelude.
Great!

One thing to know about the TLS-SNI situation is that TLS-SNI-01 has been disabled for new issuance and only works for renewals. The selection of authentication methods is pretty transparent because the ACME protocol allows the CA to state which methods it will accept for a particular domain authorization (so for the renewals it can state that TLS-SNI-01 is permitted, while for new issuance it can state that it's not, and a client can respond accordingly).

Apparently the ACME WG is working on a TLS-SNI-03 method that will be safer and that might be supported by Let's Encrypt (and ACME clients) at some point. But it's also possible that TLS-SNI-01 could be disabled in the future, even for renewals, even before TLS-SNI-03. So, if you happen to have anything in your setup that prevents the use of HTTP-01 on port 80 for authentication, you should be aware that renewals could potentially stop working at some point (although this isn't imminent), and that you might also have difficulty adding new domain names to your certificates.

https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/important-what-you-need-...

This unfortunate situation is a nice showcase of the ACME protocol's flexibility, because the CA has a way to tell the client very specifically what authentication methods to attempt or not to attempt for each domain (and if new methods are specified in the future, they can be rolled out incrementally without breaking compatibility).

Hipchat is not very good at notifications and chat though.

That does sound like a key differentiating feature, thanks for clarifying. While I'd probably prefer to hook up an open-source web-crawler to lighthouse (e.g., something like github/lightcrawler [1]), I could see SEO/marketing experts in particular paying for a user-friendly all-in-one solution like this versus cobbling something together from open-source tools.

Only tangentially related, but has anyone ever tried to apply style-transfer on human faces for artificial aging or rejuvenation? Like for the movie industry or something?
Yeah and it seems like you have managed to figure that out without the need to quantify it, which I believe was the point that the OP was making.

A point could also be made that life is too short to take yourself too seriously, but to each his own.
It's a naming trick. It's not "impure" code, it's locally state-modifying, which looks impure inside a limited context, but the changes can't leak beyond a defined boundary. In Clojure this is called "transient", and it's much better explained there, because Rich Hickey believes programming should be comprehensible: https://clojure.org/reference/transients
This might be right, but n is so small that the results are meaningless. This field is so complex and the variables innumerable that n = 40 per app cannot possibly result in trustworthy findings.

I don't mean to disparage the author, this is really interesting and I'd love to know the answer, as well as many others here I imagine. I'm just not sure how to go about acquiring the data unless you're Google or Apple.
I do not drive much (12k km per year) and this is 80% on roads I know. The remaining 20% is the road to vacation, usually with everyone in my region going to the same spots (this is in France).

I am always wondering how good these apps are in such circumstances, when on a specific day everyone goes to the same place. They do not synchronize, which would help people to drive different roads from the start.

Last Saturday I drove from Paris to the Alps, together with everybody else. GM was suggesting the straight road (A6) and I decided to take a completely different one (A5 via Annecy), supposedly 1h30 longer (over an official 7h30 trip). I arrived me of les at the same time as the others, with less stress (not one traffic jam).

I would love to have an app which talks with the others to suggest an alternate road "because the others are PLANNING to take the obvious one"
>183 students accepted to the University of the District of Columbia, the local community college. But only 16 enrolled this fall.

It's almost as if the school got with each student to have him or her apply to the school. If the students were having trouble with reading, writing, and attendance, they probably wouldn't go out of their way to fill out a college app without oversight.
As Andy Moorer puts it, “Basically all you have to do is read a book on computer programming, and you're an instant computer scientist.” Alan Kay insists that most of computer science can be mastered in one year of close attention. That's how young a science it is.

There's a great value in that simplicity; it empowers people and arguably is a leading reason for all the innovation that has followed. As we make things more complex - UEFI, systemd, HTML5, HTTP/2, Google's AMP-based email proposal, email authentication technologies (DKIM, etc) and more come to mind - we disempower more and more people.

I'm not saying that none of the technologies above should have been implemented; sometimes complexity is worthwhile. But we should work hard to maintain the simplicity (and transparency) that creates a 'freedom to tinker' in the practical sense, not just in the legal sense.

Should the computer program the kid or should the kid program the computer?

The more people treat it with contempt, the higher its value becomes for the others due to its only advantage, getting a SEO boost from Google.

Lots of our streetcar suburbs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streetcar_suburb) are walkable and low density. A key aspect of auto-dependence/sprawl is separation of uses (think big box commercial w/large parking lots vs numerous small commercial spaces throughout neighborhood). More central areas of Portland, OR are good examples (eg: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ladd's+Addition,+Portland,...).

It's far beyond that, when it comes to navigating social interactions, once you let things decline, though. I had a rotten time on my early thirties. For various reasons I was undergoing a major shakeup of my self perception. My confidence didn't erode, it just imagined that it was running in thin air, Will E. Coyote style, looked down at the impressively abyssal canyon which definitely wasn't below my feet, and obeyed cartoon gravity. (The kind that shows the emptiness stretching forever below, but somehow dashes you against every promontory and boulder on your way down.)

So I was late for the pre movie drink and greeting my friends new partners, and somehow I couldn't understand why I was slowing down, despite I was certain that I maintained my walking speed. V

You'll still see those opinions if you have the link, but there is a very obvious pattern of removing threads about contentious issues from the front page once they reach a certain amount of wrong think.

Either the admins are turning a blind eye, or they're not paying attention. At this point my money is on the former.

The supreme irony of course is that lately the most recurring instances are about the memo that was titled "Google's ideological echo chamber". It's an open secret which cliques have a septic response to disagreement, and who simply wants to be heard but is treated as malicious.

Empathy for me, not for thee, and feelings of safety are more important than actual safety. The content of people's skin is more important than their character.

I wonder if it works: Company buys land to build office but sets apart a certain percentage for employee apartments. In essence a company town. Hires a management co to run it, no buys just lease. When the company folds, downsizes or whatever, the apartments are part of it. It costs, but it's cost of doing business.

Otherwise a huge company can distort the home market .

Maybe not enough land is available, especially in places like NYC or the city wont let them build 50 stories high apartment buildings?

(I upvoted because you're making a reasonable point politely).

I disagree with this bit:

> Im a firm believer that one shouldn't be allowed to downvote without leaving a comment.

I think the site needs a mechanism where people can express disagreement without leaving a comment, because a downvote is mostly meaningless and comments can lead to angry bickering threads.

I do agree (and I've changed my mind on this in the past 2 years or so) that people downvote too quickly, and that people don't supply enough corrective upvotes.
I'm the guy people want to ne friends with. Im very friendly. I don't want friends. Most end the same way: we connect, share & remember things, then i turn cold and act less interested. Then we become good acquaintances. This pattern existed way back in high schoolHi

Having friends is not on my list of success
Or even a positive achievement. Being friendly is at the top of the list.

I say to people i meet and to others now, make sure the potential friend really wants the job.
> Would being able to set cookies or sending custom headers help?

I don't think so. And if it's for SEO purposes, I don't care; these pages won't get crawled by Google anyway. I'm ok ignoring the URLs, but it'd be nice if maybe for example you detect there's a bunch of redirects to a pattern that contains "~login~" and ask the user if they want to add the login URL to the blocklist. I didn't have much success adding it myself.
Yikes, stop with straw men. Live however you want! Nobody istearing down your house. Nobody is making you move. And NOBODY is plopping down density in the middle of single family homes, or even proposing that.

But please just let me live the way I and many others want. Just stop interfering with mixed use buildings in the middle of commercially zoned areas. So you might drive by a commercial area that has housing on top of retail, in a commercially zoned areas. What skin off your back is that?

And yes, it really is one of those small evils to make up crap like this in order to deny others housing, or a chance at opportunity like previous generations had.

There is going to be the personality type in here (see: me), that almost goes about friendships (subconsciously) like they do hobbies / new interests. You enjoy time with them, and then maybe after some time you sorta burn out.

But also.. there are people you meet (in the past ~4 years it's been IRC buddies) and it connects extra well. Maybe they're people you really respect (I'm introspecting), and maybe you realize your _other_ friends were just filling some loneliness-void without a real foundation in what could be a nice friendship.

Or maybe you're just bad at maintaining most friendships.
I found that too. I read these as a child, and I remember siding with those elves who thought Illuvatars Gift to Men to be a hard one to accept. Still, I tried to understand it a gift and not a curse, at last in later years, thinking that there must be something to it, when some elves chose to become mortal and receive this gift.

When I thought of the elves perspective, I can see that while they are super cool, they can't live the lives the way we of mankind do. We have the ability to appreciate life and feel life very intensely, precisely because we know with certainty an upper bound to our expiration date.

(For full disclosure I lean more towards the afterlife being a reality than not, this has of course affected how I read Tolkien, and C.S. Lewis, for that matter...)

Monads have been called "executable semicolons", because you can define a function to be executed each time the program passes from one statement to the next.
What you're describing sounds kind of awesome, but it's not "homeschooling." It needs a different term. And you're right, we don't know which OP is considering. But given that money will be tight...probably not the one that involves paying tutors.

And I can assure you, the bad kind you describe is not the exception. What percent it actually represents no one knows, which is a whole other problem. But it's not just a few people here and there.

There are huge networks of people and conferences full of vendors selling parents do-it-all-yourself curricula. In the 90's and early 2000's Bob Jones University (even most evangelical Christians think they're too extreme) found it profitable to sell pre-recorded math and science lessons for high school level homeschoolers. And while I know what valence electrons are (my public school peers probably forgot), I also thought the Earth was 6000 years old into my mid twenties. And like I said, they didn't make and sell all those videos just for me.

It would be great to have more hard data on the current state of homeschooling/home tutoring though...

This reminds me of the story of how composer John Cage was inspired to write his piece 4′33″ [1]:

'In 1951, Cage visited the anechoic chamber at Harvard University. An anechoic chamber is a room designed in such a way that the walls, ceiling and floor absorb all sounds made in the room, rather than reflecting them as echoes. Such a chamber is also externally sound-proofed. Cage entered the chamber expecting to hear silence, but he wrote later, "I heard two sounds, one high and one low. When I described them to the engineer in charge, he informed me that the high one was my nervous system in operation, the low one my blood in circulation." Cage had gone to a place where he expected total silence, and yet heard sound. "Until I die there will be sounds. And they will continue following my death. One need not fear about the future of music." The realization as he saw it of the impossibility of silence led to the composition of 4′33″.'

Yeah, I have to scratch my head about the whole anonymous lack of a unique number. Were IP addresses not part of early packet switched networks like ARPA net?

Still, worse than IP addresses are IMEI numbers, on your person frequently, as you move from place to place, trackable in crowds, and from aircraft overhead.
