[Pasting an old comment of mine on password managers, since I see people talking about starting to use Keepass. I hope this helps someone]

----

If you're just starting, here's some guidance on setting up a password manager.

First of all: Don't be afraid of using one. It's not just more secure, it's super convenient. Never again will you ask yourself: Did I make an account for this website/service? What email did I use? Never again will you have to remember a password. Using a password manager is a quality of life improvement.

KeepassXC is what I recommend to people at this point. It's free and you own your data (your passwords). They live wherever you want them to live. There are plenty of online services that are supposedly more convenient but I have to say I trust them less -- YMMV (1Password is the best I'm aware of).

https://keepassxc.org

If you do use keepassxc, you get the added benefit of being able to store 2FA settings in it as well (if you store them in the same database as your passwords, be aware that you lose the security benefit of a second factor, however it is still more secure than not having 2FA enabled due to the One-time password component).

Put every account you ever made and ever make into keepass. Enable 2fa wherever you don't have it enabled. Add login URLs and notes. Generate your passwords from keepass itself; the password generator is really powerful and lets you very easily deal with site-specific shitty password limitations. I'm telling you this because, seriously, it's incredibly convenient to have this stuff as long as you're rigorous about maintaining it.

Oh, also, keepass has the full history of all your passwords. Need to look up an old password? Go into details and look at "History". You can also attach files to items (items don't have to be accounts at all, you can use keepassxc as a simple encrypted storage db).

Mobile support: Keepass2Android. Best android client, with google drive support. iOS I have no idea, suggestions welcome.

IMPORTANT: BE STUPIDLY PARANOID AND RIGOROUSLY CAREFUL ABOUT YOUR MASTER PASSWORD. That thing, together with your keepass database, unlocks all your accounts ever. Use a really long passphrase that you will never have to write down (if you do decide to write it down because you don't trust yourself, store it in a safety deposit box, don't put it in a bloody drawer). Make sure the device you unlock the database on is malware-free.

PS: Wondering what's up with Keepass vs. KeepassX vs. KeepassXC? Keepass is the original app, written in .NET but with poor multi-platform support. KeepassX is a rewrite in Qt and is a fantastic password manager, but has gone unmaintained recently. The open source community picked up the slack in the KeepassXC fork (after continuing countless attempts to upstream the patches) and has implemented lots of powerful features. I've switched to it and at this point I strongly believe it's the better client.

Drugs are not evil, addiction is evil. Drinking quality alcohol helps one manage addiction by replacing quantity for quality.

Happily, too, Safari’s suggested passwords have pretty good entropy and are sensible enough to be accepted by many password rulesets.
Women entering the workforce in bulk was done already two decades ago. The female labor participation rate peaked in 2000 and has declined since that - however, the trends are still continuing; they are not coupled/correlated to this increase of workforce.
It's a probability (conditional probability of the discrete rv Y given the continuous X=x) multiplied by the density of the continuous rv at X=x. It is the value of the joint density at X=x, Y=y.

p-values are unrelated to this but are computed by looking at the cumulative distribution function (the integral of the density).

The fear is not that we're going to run out, it's that we're getting cobalt directly from the suffering of others, so called "Conflict Minerals" - child labor, slave labor, etc. It's the same story with Toyota and Neodymium, Intel and Tantalum, and so forth.

Dodd-Frank made these companies aware of the problem within, and these companies are actively working towards removing Conflict Minerals from their supply chains, even if that means buying direct from miners as regional traders and smelters prove unreliable sources of Conflict-Free minerals. That's the whole story.

Keybase is not really a social network. It feels much more like a sort PKI with a Slack client on top of it. The focus seems very much on Teams.

However they could go into more of a social network direction, the features are basically there.
The big problem here are bots that bid on stuff at the last minute. That's why I filter out auctions most of the time and just find "Buy It Now" items.

Pretty amazing and absolutely deserved. After the failures of systems like PGP, which aren't really suitable for the masses, the Signal protocol did a great job at spreading end-to-end encryption. I'm happy to hear that they got some philanthropic funding, even though I don't doubt that Moxie and the others did the work out of principle anyway and might have continued to do so even without the money.
I'm not sure how these are a mystery.

Wages aren't going up because there is nothing forcing them to go up. The upper class just takes their rents and insists paying more wages would tank the economy.

Participation is going down because there's little reason to seek employment if you know the employer is just attempting to shaft you. You produce $40/hr, but they'll pay you $8/hr. You can't negotiate, they'll just find someone who is desperate.
Obligatory "shall we play a game?" joke.
I was looking at Dashlane which seemed to have some good features, including some ability to do password rotation automatically, and some level of yubikey support. That said I'm still using keepass. I discovered it when I needed a solution that worked on an original Surface RT, as well as an iphone, and I've remained happy.

My completely unscientific theory is that all the money that would otherwise have been allocated to wage increases has been eaten up by skyrocketing healthcare costs.

I haven't actually looked at whether this is true though.
Yes, you are right. It doesn't access bank accounts or card details.
Namecheap has and does fail, there was a time where I waited 2 weeks for them to fix a bug that got rid of my glue records and I was just getting "We're looking into it."

Am I the only one who has grown to absolutely despise the term "creative" when used as a type of worker/employee? As in, for example (from the article) "members of the creative class" and "young creative types". Makes my skin crawl for some reason. I envision a bunch of people who stand around smelling each other's farts like they are at a wine tasting.

I realize this comment isn't really productive and doesn't really contribute to the conversation but am I curious if anyone else hates that term.
Great looking service, excited to check it out further. The company I work for builds lots of self service video portals for clients and we use Azure Media Services for ingestion, transcoding, storage and streaming.

Care to elaborate on how this related to Azure Media Services?

Thanks!
If there was I never saw it, for years I have driven though ETX and its still nothing but podunk towns. Even the town square around the courthouse in Marshall was nothing special. It's simply a drive from Dallas you can make in a few hours. They have a airport but I hardly think that attorneys would do that over the drive.

As for any of those projects? Likely just a facade for what's really been going on which is essentially good ol' boy politics to keep the money flowing and people in power. The place you want to look at is Marshall, TX. It's not really that exciting of a town but you can find economic reports of that community so see that it's not really a hotbed of economic growth outside of the oil field business.

My opinion comes from many years of maintaining gas stations from DFW to Shreveport off I20 and all through ETX.

V: Can I get a hamburger, but without the beef patty?
C: No.
V: What? Why not?
C: My artistic vision demands that the meat be present.
V: (irritated) Fine. I'll have the hamburger.
C: Here you go.
V: <throws meat patty into the trash>
C: That's not allowed! Wharrgarbl!

This isn't a matter of "can I substitute lobster tails for the fries?". You can't force someone to consume something they don't want just because that's the way you want it. Clearly, it is well within the capabilities of the cook to make a regular hamburger and not put the meat into it in the first place. Bundling up the entire sandwich as one unit may be more convenient for the cook, but it might be irritating for the customers, and the cook's business is driven by customers.

In the context of this specific website, the cook is grinding the meat up with the vegetables, in such a way that it is needlessly difficult to throw away the meat. It may not be intentionally hostile to vegetarians, but it does show a careless disregard to anyone that doesn't like their sandwich the only way the cook makes it.

If you need excitement in Europe, I can recommend anywhere near or in Naples (Napoli) or Rome, Paris, Deutsche Autobahns and most of Eastern Europe and the Balkans.

I am aware that European roads as a whole are rather straightforwards compared to some parts (OK most) of the world. For starters we have rules and most of the time they are nearly obeyed. However the rules are often not quite the safe as the official ones.

For example, I discovered that around Napoli, you use your entire car as an indicator. Once you wedge it into a tiny gap then people will generally give way but you have to be very quick and accurate. It may be coincidental that when me and wifey started observing properly, that we estimated that around 90-95% of cars in that area had visible damage and were generally of fairly low value (in general).

When I gave a lift to an interview candidate at my company, who happened to be Polish, he remarked upon our habit of letting waiting cars out of side streets onto the main road. "That would not happen in Poland" he said, but I'm sure it does sometimes.

Speaking very, very generally, and given my experience does not extend to Scandinavia and quite a few other local-ish lands but does include US and Canada, I would tentatively suggest that the UK is generally a safe place to drive and is, generally, a forgiving driving environment. Our road signs are possibly the best anywhere but we do have too many signs in some places.

Driving in China would scare the shit out of me and I'm pretty confident behind the wheel.
This dataset would be a fun project to implement on IPFS -- content-addressed, distributed database of leaked passwords using the same hash range protocol.

Is there a third alternative to separating card components? I don't really like using borders and box-shadow while aesthetically pleasing isn't as accessible or performative. I guess one could make liberal use of white space but then the component isn't really a card anymore.

Edit: Flourine is more toxic than lead, I wouldn't put that in my mouth even if it cured lead poisoning. Some kids have died in the dentist chair after swallowing their flouride treatments in the past. (maybe it's safer now?)

Flouride treatments actually make bone and teeth more brittle, as they replace the calcium. (note, tempting controversy with this subject, I realize this. It's worth doing research on the topic)

Edit: I have flouride scarring on my teeth from childhood flouride treatments. This is a common thing.
No, don't try to put this on the introverts. And don't try to paint this as trying to "get revenge." I'm fine with having mixed spaces. But the extroverts are the ones in charge, and they're the ones that are, again, forcing their preferences, instead of asking. They are the ones that need to come to the middle and meet the rest of us.
New Quantum Crypto Scheme Looks Ahead to “Quantum Internet”
No, he said the crypto was weird (which it is. Who the eff uses IGE mode?) and that their competition to find vulnerabilities was bullshit and would be secure even using crypto primitives that are known to be weak.
Spectre is based on branch-prediction and cache memory, see [1]. This means that one obvious way to avoid it is to disable branch-prediction, with a performance loss as a result. Another way would be to separate cache memory between different processes. There are probably more clever ways, but that's just to show that the vulnerability can be avoided. Also, early processors such as 6502 and 8086 didn't have the bug, obviously, but should be capable of running web-browsers if performance is not an issue.

A little hand-wavy but I will try to give some sort of definition.

If we assume that wealth can be measured with a non-negative real number, then we will set the zero point of the scale at total human extinction. If we set such a zero point, then we will assume that moving away from zero, that is moving away from extinction, is moving in a positive direction. Therefore, anything which contributes to the robustness and stability of the system could be argued as "wealth" or "valuable".

In his short stories Philip Dick pretty much followed these suggestions. He always cuts to the chase. His characters are mostly nondescript; their only importance is how they directly impact the story (if he ever dwells on something, it's his characters' jobs and their connection to, say, an ex-wife). A particular sci-fi gadget will be minimally described, if at all, as PKD wasn't very interested in technology for its own sake. In general he kept descriptions to a minimum and dialogues very short.

It’s an interesting piece of real journalism, the kind that is increasingly rare. So many shady things are going on all at once, it is easy to be confused about what to be mad about, but that doesn’t make the story less interesting.

As for the 3rd amendment, probably a typo from the source that was reported straight through for comedic effect.

"And I just explained why (what you're unhelpfully calling) "labor labor" did not add more value than before, while managerial labor did."

But you didn't. You claimed they didn't add anything, without backing it up. More work was done, more widgets were produced. You need to justify why labor should not share in that.

And saying "labor labor" is no more unhelpful than you talking about "managerial labor."

"For the reason I just implied by analogy: pushing a button is just as easy before and after, but finding the productivity improvement was non-trivial.

You've not proven that, however. And, again, the labor is producing more, thus helping the company to be more successful. Without them, the company wouldn't be able to do any of that.

"For the same reason (if it's not clear from the analogy) why Target shouldn't pay more for boxes of cereal from wholesalers if they have a better year than Walmart."

That's not the same situation at all. In your situation, Target is paying the same amount of money, and getting the same amount of goods in return as they were before. Not at all applicable to the current situation.

Awesome. Not overly surprised that someone with years of experience can manage what they're subscribed to AND identify those sites that won't abuse the implied trust in handling that email address :)

Agreed, spam prevention has come a long way on both the client-side (gmail) and regulations (CAN-SPAM), forcing clear unsubscribe paths. Yes, the damage of past behaviour is hard to reverse.

Next generation of users don't allot much attention to email, so liking/following is the way to "subscribe to product info". Otherwise, those exclusively email-based popovers are just a nuisance to that audience; good ones include other channels.
I think those single-letter names like "S combinator" are a holdover from Math notation, where it was a practical consideration, but in practice in functional programming, those names aren't used (I certainly haven't memorized them); If you look at the Haskell column on the page, you can see that they're actually named for readability (though it might not initially seem like it if you don't do a lot of coding in Haskell):

- K is "const" and C is "flip"; they're generally used to for arguments to a higher order function: "map (const 5) myList", "foldl (flip f) 0 myList"

- Psi is "on", since it's regularly used to construct a new function "h = f `on` g"

- S is a specific type of application, called infix as "f `ap` x", but also has an operator to intentionally make it look more like just line noise: "f < * > x". (Had to add spaces to this operator so HN wouldn't interpret it as italics)

The operators might seem opaque, but the idea is to make it more visually apparent that it's a pattern, not some application-specific business logic. There are lots of concepts of "apply" - there's pure application ($), Applicative application (< * >), Monadic application (=<<), etc. - writing them out would distracting to read. Using operators makes it easier to skim and get the general idea of how the code works without worrying about the underlying structural details, while still being precise about them.
I've seen rates of supernova for the milky way as 1 per century. So that's 1 per 10^13 star-years.

With 10^22 stars in the observable universe distributed uniformly we would expect something like 10^9 stars to supernova this year.

But we have to consider the speed of light. So what we are really asking is something like what is the probability that light will arrive at Earth in some interval from a supernova.

I'd imagine this is some integral over spherical shells receding into the distant past where there is some function defined on the shell which tracks stellar density as well as supernova probability. Beyond my expertise to even attempt napkin math.
I feel like I've read a variation of this headline every six months or so for the last decade, and nothing ever seems to come of it.
