The key to switching from Google to DDG is memorizing a few shortcuts for fallbacks, like "!g" (Google), "!gi" (Google images), and "!gn" (Google news). It can be annoying at first to have to type the few extra characters, but over time you'll find yourself using them less and less. They will never completely disappear, but one day you'll realize you're only using them in a few percent of your searches. In most cases, you will know in advance that you specifically want "Google results" instead of "search results," and can add them on the first query.

From a privacy perspective, using DDG like this denies Google 95+% of the information it would be gathering about you.

Caveat: I have never wanted "local" or "personalized" search results. I'm willing to type "Chinese food near ZIP code" or "Chinese translation" instead of relying on opaque algorithms to use my location and personal data to decide whether I'm hungry or confused.

Been biking to work for 4 years now and never had a close call with a car, but I try to avoid roads as much as possible. Luckily there is a bike trail that goes roughly in the direction I need. That said, there is one section where riding with the traffic is unavoidable and I hate it. I especially hate one particular stoplight that is on a sensor and the sensor is not strong enough to pick up my bike.

I should point out that I ride in the suburbs and road traffic goes much faster than what I can sustain on a bike. Most roads are 35 or 45mph and hilly/curvy, so they are terrifying to cycle on.
In principle, a quota rule can be used for power consolidation by (arguably douchebaggy) men that already occupy a relative position of power. I can imagine members of an all-male board using quotas as a means to move competitors or newcomers out of their way to the highest position.

Though it doesn't have to be quota for women, of course.
Precisely so.

The essence of the scientific method is taking what you think is true and proving it with a higher degree of accuracy.

This is why studies are repeated by other people, to see if the results match up.
Regarding deployment, you'll need an HTML engine adapted for your embedded platform. That is actually not trivial. Have you done it, or are you just extrapolating from desktop applications? Not a rhethorical question, there may be some Chromium embedded thing...
> That's basically the current state of things with Tor, under the what I think is very real assumption that all traffic is stored.

I mean, systems like Tempora[1] and the NSA's Utah data center[2] are known. Tempora apparently stores data for 3 days and metadata for 30 days.

I'd concede they may store metadata, but I seriously doubt they're storing the full traffic. That doesn't seem doable from a logistical standpoint.

Ask HN: How should I afford my children?
I would like the perspective of intelligent, unconventional thinkers
on a matter that has suddenly become important to me, so naturally I'm
asking HN.

I'm a homeschooling stay-at-home father of three living in Wisconsin.
I am preparing to initiate a divorce (for excellent reasons I will not
enumerate here). I have been out of the workforce for eight years,
and I'd like to retain custody of my children and continue to teach
them at home. To fund this, I can provide four hours of focused work
from home five nights per week and another 45 minutes of scattered
time each day to take care of half-brained administrative tasks.

Here are my abilities: I am a skilled Python programmer who also has
significant experience in C#.NET, Pascal, and Scheme. My past work
has focused on desktop and server-side applications. I'm an able
writer in English, and a former professional classical musician and
teacher who still performs on a high level.

If you were in my position, how would you maximize the income
available from my 4.75 hours daily work without delaying my departure
more than a few weeks?

The main problem was that they ran out of runway while waiting for manufacturers and suppliers to line up and meet their demand. The software was solid, but for hardware products, that's less than half the picture. You need to worry about coordinating with suppliers, factories, and all these other logistical issues to produce a product a scale. If a supplier is unwilling to meet your demand, you're basically screwed and are left waiting indefinitely, unless you immediately pivot on your hardware design.
That's very noble, but I don't want to live in a world where one moral vigilante hacker cowboy dictates what world we live in. It seems much more reasonable to come together as a people and vote on what we can and cannot do. After we vote, we can write down what the majority has decided and then demand individuals adhere to those policies. We could then call those policies "law". Seems much more reasonable to me.
Cycling to work is normal here in the Netherlands, especially in the cities.

Given a few times when I've been sick, I've ridden almost every day to work and back (8km), regardless of the weather (and the Dutch weather is famous for being rubbish).

I'm a cyclist at heart so really enjoy the daily commute along the canals, back streets and cycle paths of the city.

To be fair, even the nightclubs have cycle parking - and an attendant present too for security.
To be fair, the stock market is bullshit. Its legalized professional gambling where some participants have way more information than others. The fact the vast majority of business exists to try to "win" the stock market game than provide real productive returns to the economy reaffirms the bullshit economics involved.

IE, vast amounts of effort from major globalcorps is dedicated towards tax avoidance. You spend tremendous amounts of resources to avoid taxes, which is only beneficial to the shareholders in the short term, because the long term economic damage of tax fraud and avoidance cripples economies and stunts growth. But the stockholders need not care since they already made their dividends off all the smuggled money as the country burns around them.

Looks like a good time to short.
P.S. I'm using a throwaway account here for obvious reasons.
"The Linux kernel currently supports two separate network packet-filtering mechanisms: iptables and nftables. For the last few years, it has been generally assumed that nftables would eventually replace the older iptables implementation; few people expected that the kernel developers would, instead, add a third packet filter. But that would appear to be what is happening with the newly announced bpfilter mechanism. Bpfilter may eventually replace both iptables and nftables, but there are a lot of questions that will need to be answered first."

Goshdarnit. I've been trying to get ahead of the curve and have been learning and implimenting nftables, and now you're telling me I might need to learn something else! Such is the life of a sysadmin I suppose.

"The use of BPF enables the writing of firewall rules in C"

Have you seen the rulesets people write in other firewall languages? This seems scary to me.

"One of the core design features for bpfilter is the ability to translate existing iptables rules into BPF programs."

nftables also does this, but I suggest not using it and writing fresh

"even though it would be likely to supplant nftables relatively quickly. Instead, Miller said in the discussion that nftables failed to address the performance problems in Linux's packet-filtering implementation, driving users toward user-space networking technologies instead. There is a real possibility that nftables could end up being one of those experiments that is able to shed some light on the problem space but never takes over in the real world."

Ok, well I have some questions here. First, show me the benchmarks. Also, nftables is still much faster than iptables in my benchmarks, so it has largely delivered. Of course it's difficult to compete with an asic offload, but I do see how there could be lots of potential with bpf if it offloads to the interface. That said, the real potential I see is for nftables and bpf to coexist in the future as a replacement for iptables or for iptables and bpf. nftables solves a lot of real problems and working with it has been really enjoyable for me compared to years of iptables rules (I always refused to use the layer-on-top-of-iptables abstractions, so I'm talking about pure iptables.) A quick glance at bpf seems like it would be worth it for extremely high requirement cases where the investment would be worth it (just noticed the cloudflare comment for example), but for the rest of us mortals in IT deps with limited budgets, time, and knowledge workers, it seems a bit too heavy to just start implimenting.

I could be wrong, but I really hope nft succeeds despite this.
> I see almost no evidence that we are going to deal with climate change in time to avoid a catastrophe.

Admittedly it depends on what you mean by catastrophe, but if you mean the extreme interpretation, as often portrayed in the media, as in "the complete destruction of the human species and planet" i.e. The Day After Tomorrow or Mad Max, then you should look at the data on this because it will make you feel a whole lot better. [1]

If on the other hand your definition of catastrophe is along the lines of : "by 2100, 8 foot rise in global water levels, coastal cities being flooded, large loss of biodiversity, and heat waves that make life on regions on the planet deathly hot for certain periods of the year", then although that's the worst case scenario, it's still a likely outcome in the sample space.

So long as the goal is to use software engineering to help, you run the risk of staying in the bubble. Nobody can eat an app or PaaS. It won't keep anyone out of the rain unless someone has built a roof out in meat space. More intractable is that roofs and happy meals scale linearly. Spinning up 1000 more EC2 instances doesn't address acute demand spikes.

These are hard problems. There is a reasonable probability that your professional skills are not all that applicable.However, you are not in poor company. For all that Jimmy Carter can do, every board he nails together makes a difference in some family's lives.

It's so interesting how two people can see the same list and read it so differently. This was the list:

> real wages decreasing since 1980

This is the problematic outcome itself, not one of the specific causes.

> the commoditizing of labor (e.g. janitorial companies, the "sharing economy")

Caused by labor laws that make hiring full time employees more expensive (e.g. employer-provided healthcare mandates, see below), pushing businesses to hire temporary contractors from contracting companies that take a cut of the wages rather than forming stable long-term employment relationships directly with specific individuals.

> ever-decreasing investment in infrastructure

This is obviously a call for more government spending on infrastructure, which I would agree with personally, but there is actually a "this is still the government's fault" Libertarian position on this -- the government provides crumbling-but-free infrastructure which destroys the private market for providing the same things. If they didn't provide it at all then the market would invest more in it, so the theory goes.

> tying wealth to real estate prices

Unambiguous case of government regulations (zoning laws, loan interest subsidies) screwing things up.

> an educational system that leaves many young people mired in debt

Federal loan interest subsidies again.

> tying healthcare to employment and the price of healthcare in general.

More bad regulations: Tax subsidies and regulatory requirements for employer-provided healthcare, laws that encourage "health insurance" that covers everyday medicine rather than actual insurance against atypically large costs, which inhibits consumers from being price sensitive and thereby inflates healthcare costs.

> mass incarceration destroying families and individuals

Obvious case of "repeal the laws" as the solution.

> regulatory capture allowing big businesses to beat down all the small ones

Large companies control the regulatory bodies for their industry and purposely have rules enacted that favor large scale entities. Remove the rules, restore competition.

> a monoculture that tremendously decreases resiliency

Outcome of bad regulations again -- regulatory capture producing monopolies/oligopolies, regulations mandating specific solutions instead of facilitating multiple alternative solutions, high regulatory compliance costs destroying small businesses, monoculture of federal programs themselves that displace diverse programs operated by localities or private industry, etc.

There is a completely valid position that eliminating regulations could solve all of these.

true, one monolithic kernel posix-like OS which can run pretty much the same software stack as another monolithic kernel posix-like OS has nothing in common whatsoever.

Careful -- you're in danger begging the question. See my remark regarding mathematical summation. Intervals are nothing other than a pitch distance. Note names are the absolute value of a pitch. I'm not at all convinced that it's not possible to design a notational system that does away with the sharps/flats and yet retains the compactness optimality w.o. the ionic scale.
