That's not related to the issue at hand, which is that users searching for actively maintained projects are getting sent to old unmaintained projects that are abandoned for reasons other than "it is so stable it needs no updates". It's like trying to install CUPS (last updated a month ago) but being redirected to cup-stacker-pro (last updated in 1997). Sure, it's definitely old code, but is it really a good idea to install it?

But I also disagree that old code is "battle tested". Old codebases and old projects are a different story. Running a binary built 10 years ago isn't generally a good idea, but running a modern release of a 10-year-old project is almost always better than a project started 2 weeks ago. The benefit of old codebases is the experience of the maintainers involved, but you don't get that benefit if the codebase hasn't been maintained (or you're using a release that was made before they gained that experience).
Still trying to work out how to spin that in to a story worth telling.
It's not wholly unique to Japan. In retellings of the Trojan War, Ajax's bow is used to make him look less honorable than the swordsmen he kills.

It's basically technophobia. Usually a dangerous bias, but if we can harness it to prevent people from shooting each other, maybe that's the upside.

This was primarily the reason why I chose to write the disk decryption keyboard/unlocker for postmarketOS to use directFB (by way of SDL2). Putting X into an initramfs is absurd. It's very unfortunate that DirectFB seems to be abandoned now.

I don't know if they'd gone away. However, in school and college I used to write with one and I only every used the standard, blue Pelikan ink we were told to use in elementary school in Germany. I now have to write a lot more by hand at work and got a new fountain pen. That was the months ago or so. Thanks to the Internet I now have 4 pens three ink bottles and about 15 samples from Gulet pens...

Yes - this is one thing that I really didn't realise until much later in age - writing with a fountain pen is less fatiguing.

I used to press down hard with fountain pens, like I did with ballpoints, which used to cause blotting and damage my nibs. As soon as I started buying expensive fountain pens, I changed my style completely to use virtually no pressure on the page, and I am enjoying writing so much more.
That sounds more like web workers than service workers? (web worker: get "background threads" for computation, service worker: intercept requests, get custom caching strategies, ...)
Does he? He said that a similar design is straightforward.

In 2014 I wrote up a spec for something that exactly matches that comment (linking tun/tap devices via Curve25519-protected UDP) and started implementing it. I know you're not using that because I never finished it. My employer shut down shortly thereafter and I wasn't able to transfer ownership of the IP to myself.

So this isn't a nonobvious idea. There's no clairvoyance required.
No, it still doesn't answer my question. For one, this is the part that looks a lot like entrapment. Putting that aside, it doesn't logically follow that what is effectively a sales pitch about a use of the product for coordinating illegal activity implies that that was the primary intent of the product. The "too" in the quote from the transcript is important there. It implies that there was a primary use case (presumably legal private communication) but that they considered the use case under discussion too.

It's not even clear when the use of the product in this case becomes illegal. Merely using a secure device for encrypted communication is not illegal. If that communication involves planning criminal acts then presumably the parties communicating can be charged with conspiracy but since these were encrypted communications does evidence for that actually exist? Communication does not become criminal merely because it is engaged in by criminals, they have to actually be conspiring to commit a crime and in the case of non drug offenses they have to actually take steps to commit that crime in the US.

Car companies specifically design their cars to be able to exceed legal speed limits. Does that make them liable when drivers break speed limits?
> an attorney once insist I use his pen as he was convinced the liquid in the pen was not real ink.

That's really funny! In Germany the opposite is true: certain transactions, like marriage licenses, are only legal if signed with a DIN standard ink guaranteed to last a century. There appears to be an ISO standard for Kugelschreiber (ball point, Byro) ink but in practice this has always seemed to be fountain pen ink (admittedly I got married over 25 years ago; perhaps things have...relaxed... a little. Kids still have to use fountain pens in school.

Sure, but passing a federal law or constitutional amendment that would implement that solution is unlikely, because it is against the vested interests of the congressmen from gerrymandered districts who would be voting on it in the first place. On the other hand, ratifying the apportionment amendment would create so many congressional districts that gerrymandering would be effectively impossible.

Also, if you're going to go straight into fantasy land to solve gerrymandering, you can just do party-list proportional representation by state, or STV for smaller states, and then there's no districting at all. There's nothing in the constitution requiring congressional districts at all.

I almost exclusively sign documents with a fountain pen - because I enjoy the process, and I usually get just the precise sort of ink flow to accentuate the flourishes in my sig. I've never had anyone question it to date, in my experience, and it would be sad if it was not accepted on formal documents any more.

Actually, I have had a lot of e-signatures rejected recently, and ended up signing them with my fountain pen, re-scanning the pages and emailing them on!
That’s a fair point. What I had meant to say was that Manjoo’s history of questionable articles (which, to be fair, are just a few selections from a very long and generally liked career) did not seem directly relevant to whether he is being misleading now, other than to imply that he is generally a poor pundit/writer. But you’re right that the argument refers to his work as evidence and not to Manjoo himself.

From this list, I can personally vouch for the Platinum Preppy and Pilot Metropolitan. Though the Preppy is a disposable, the catridges from the non-disposable Platinum pens fit it. You could could even get an eyedropper and refill the cartridge from a bottle of ink.

Most of my collection is in the under $20 range, most under $2.50 and the worst I've had is the ink had dried, which took some soaking in water for a bit to get out, but this was from letting a pen sit unused for months.
I prefer to do everything I can from my browser. I think it's silly to have apps for evey single facet of life.

I like that idea, I will try it. I did get up to 4 though, but I am not trying. :P I am doing the absolute minimum that I can handle. I don't break a sweat even, and my breathing is barely elevated. (part of goals, not to over do it)

Also, another rule I have, if it hurts, I stop. Period. So one day I did a few squats, my knee felt funny on one, a little pain on the next. I stopped. The next day it was fine and I did 20 squats again.

Thanks for the suggestion.
tons of small keyboards inspired by kinesis has been developed. Iris, Dactyl, Split Plancks, and more. Depends on what you really need from the Kinesis. Is it the thumb buttons? The cups? The split layout? There are several other designs that are more compact, but I don't really remember the specifics. /r/mechanicalkeyboards is a good place to watch for the designs (yes, among all the expensive conventional keyboards there)
What your saying doesn't really address the issue marcosdumay raised: That is, the issue with allowing this kind of introspection is its susceptibility for abuse.

That said, your use-case of intercepting secure connections in your private network is a solved one: set up a private CA.

You're recreationally drinking medicine mixed with alcohol -- what do you expect? You wouldn't drink gin and asprin.

The article casually mentions "Quinine, used for hundreds of years to treat malaria, is a well known cause of platelet and bleeding problems..." The G&T was specifically mixed so colonial British could get their malaria medicine.

Ironically the origin of most cocktails was mixing in juices etc to cover up the taste of alcohol (even the romans had to water down their wine to make it palatable). But the G&T was mixing the alcohol in to make the medicine more palatable!

Maybe. Probably. And I think the guy does?

He doesn't seem to feel good about a closed source implementation completely disconnected from the project, for a protocol that is as of now unreleased, only releases snapshots with large warnings to not yet depend on it.

The attitude makes sense to me, from a developer's point of view (Will TunSafe follow Wireguard changes closely? How sound is it, compared to the project's own codebase?) and a project's/personal point of view: Someone invests a lot of time into Wireguard and before it's "ready" someone else builds closed source clients with a fancy website for the two biggest operating systems. YMMV.

Back in the day, The multi-sync CRT's would sync VBLANK[1] to the power line if the screen was at 60hz. If a fluorescent tube overhead was also 60hz, the flicker became unavoidable and caused many an office worker a migraine headache. To avoid this issue, graphics cards and monitors started syncing at 85hz.

With an LCD panel at 60hz, the backlight is not flickering, and the screen itself is not vanishing off the display like it is on the CRT.

The reason to use 120hz and higher these days is to prevent motion blur. [2]

I should quote from an older book called 'Confessions of a Yakuza', on the Yakuza from about 80 years ago, it's just so fitting:

>The real reason why the police set him up, of course, was to improve the district’s anti-crime record. Sometime after I left jail—around 1938, I suppose it would have been—I had just the same kind of trouble myself at my joint in Uguisudani. Told me, in just the same way, to hand in my guns. This particular detective came straight from the Metropolitan Police Board—the very top. I expect they’d been tipped off that some yakuza somewhere had got hold of a few pistols, so they planned to make a clean sweep. But there weren’t any in my place to begin with, and there was nothing I could do.

>So they told me to produce some even if I had to buy them. It was way out of line, but if I’d gone on insisting I didn’t have any, I’d have ended up the same as Kan-chan, so I got a brother to buy me a couple at three hundred and fifty yen apiece. That was enough to buy a house with in those days, but I couldn’t afford to think about that.

>I turned them in to the police immediately. “Good work,” they said—and that was the last I heard about it: no letter of thanks, and no punishment, either....
It's more dangerous in street drugs because it is potent at extremely low doses, so poorly mixed drugs can contain fatal doses very easily.

In a controlled setting, where the dose is precisely known, that is not an issue. I did some reading of fentanyl vs. morphine a while ago, and found that fentanyl is often preferred for acute pain due to faster onset, shorter duration (which may make controlling adverse reactions/overdoses easier), fewer side-effects and less histamine release. Specifically:

> When adverse event rates were counted across both the out-of-hospital and ED phases, morphine's and fentanyl's safety levels were extremely close, erasing even the suggestion of a trend toward safety in one drug or the other. Our data do not suggest that further work should be done to try to determine which drug is safer: The low absolute rates and small difference between the two drugs make it unlikely that this difference would become either clinically or statistically significant, even with a larger sample size.

I don't believe the notion that fentanyl is per se more dangerous, rather than being dangerous when misused/poorly handled, is supported.

Overall, it seems kind of rude to be involved with something where people accidentally ingest substances, where better event planning could've prevented non-intentional consumption, and then make a statement condemning substance abuse, rather than just owning the event planning mistake. Though maybe they have legal reasons for not wanting to take ownership of the mistake...

It seems it would've been better if the statement wasn't

"I would like to make it clear: substance abuse is against the values that we uphold."

(Just using cannabis isn't substance abuse - substance abuse is a specific thing, i.e. see the following list for opioid abuse criteria, most of the criteria should apply to most other substances https://www.buppractice.com/node/12351)

But instead

"I would like to make it clear: serving people drugs without making it explicitly clear that they are consuming drugs is against the values that we uphold."
