I'm in the central US, so I've never come across something this large... but I have been present a few times when people have found explosives while going through a deceased person's belongings. A couple of those were (very old) commercial explosives, but in one instance it was a few live Vietnam-era M-61 hand grenades. In that particular case they didn't even call the police - they'd already found the paperwork for them; they were legal and registered, though stored improperly.

>I’d argue that it was largely dumb money that was scammed. Not Silicon Valley.

Bubbles have normal air in them. Economic bubbles include plenty of normal economic activity that has not much to do with the fact that it's a bubble.

I would make the case that calling SV and "dumb VC money" one in the same is perfectly appropriate in the context of an article written for a general audience.
The childhood experience sounds a lot like dissociation. It can be terrifying and it can be somewhat pleasant.

On a darker note it can be associated with childhood trauma, but having had episodes every so often when I was younger and a little less often as an adult I can confirm that it's not exclusively caused by traumatic experiences.

The OP was comparing out of pocket transport expenses versus “free” public transport, attempting to make an argument that us dumb Americans have to pay for something that someone else can get for “free”. It’s not a valid argument. They both cost money, figure out what that amount actually is before making arguments about relative cost.
Kudos for anything could be purchased but beyond layer7 looks harder, I understand.

Civilized societies see a healthy and educated population and infrastructure as the beginning of building a progress oriented society, market fundamentalists like Friedman see it as an end, a process from which they can extract profits. This is an impoverished self-limiting vision.

Speaking strictly in terms of money... How much would you pay for a license? $65? So what does that work out to if we release an upgrade every 2 - 2.5 years? About $30 / yr, right? That is about what a subscription costs as well, but the subscription includes access to the apps on all platforms, as well as other features not available with a license. For most people, especially 1Password Families customers, the subscription option is going to be less expensive. This is a reflection of the amount of support required on average by license customers vs subscription customers.

Unprivileged processes can communicate with privileged services.

The service itself sometimes controls which user can access which data, but in this case since the encrypted keys are stored in the Current User Registry Hive (NTUSER.DAT) it likely doesn't need to, filesystem permissions handle that.

Plus even if another user gained access to your registry hive, the data is encrypted with your context via the Data Protection APIs.
Every £1138 that comes out of my department budget on my overtime, I keep £400 of (£138 employer NI, £20 employee NI, £400 income tax, £180 child tax). That's 65% tax. At £100k to £120k you keep 33%. With 4 kids between £50k and £60k you keep about 25% of the money.

At the "higher tax" threshold, you can earn an extra £118, but end up paying an extra £268 in tax as you lose married couple tax allowance -- i.e. do some overtime and end up with less money.

Meanwhile those who are wealthy and powerful enough to structure their earnings as capital gains pay a mere 28%
Agreed, in that the fasteners get stretched, fatigued, difficult to manipulate.

But it still happens. Having a means of greater torque gets past that failure condition and reduces the work burden.

And that's a net good. Older people, young, small, women with nails, guys who may not be very strong, someone hurt or sick all see a much improved task, well in bounds for them.

This is precisely why I brought all my kids up knowing these things. Same for anyone I've helped. I'll leave it with them and just go get another lever. cheap.

Better to be equipped to get this done than be stuck, merely understanding one should not be, but is anyway.

A small extension of this thinking means equipping the vehicle with common sense, useful tools. BMW does this from the factory. Most go unused, but its ultra cheap insurance. May actually end up applying to another vehicle. All good.

It really doesn't take much to equip a vehicle for trouble cases. Anyone who does is likely to get a nice return on that modest investment in skill and gear at some point in their lives. This is true even when their skills are somehow lacking, or they become physically unable somehow.

Getting help means people, and it often means tools. Having both is again, cheap insurance.

Talking about a damaged fastener on your way from the trouble incident is a great problem to have when compared to the side of a road.

I once missed a flight by 5 minutes - quite literally. Last flight of the day, too. I was so angry with myself that I threw my Galaxy Nexus phone (in a rubber shell case) on the hard tiled floor of the airport. Much to my utter astonishment, the phone suffered no visible damage. I later discovered that the compass and accelerometer no longer worked, meaning the phone would not detect landscape layout, but everything else worked perfectly fine. No scratches or cracks on the screen, and only a little scuff on the bumper case. Suitably impressed with the build quality (I mean, if I couldn't break it when in a fit of anger I wanted to break it), I bought an S5 as my next phone. This has also survived a drop onto concrete, unintentional this time, with only a few chips to the cheap chrome-effect edge. Smartphones seem to be a lot tougher than we give them credit for... unless they're Apple pre-iPhone 8, in which case they smash if you look at them funny...
That's an interesting possibility that I had not considered. I always think of the military as a giant exercise in logistics and there is no such thing without asset tracking.

After all, whether you're talking about bullets or aircraft carriers they're not much use to the state that owns them if the state doesn't know where they are.

But if there is enough stuff and a portion of it is misplaced then that would be a real problem. The simple fact that this thing is on display in its present location is worrisome. You could have put it in the back of a car and transported it halfway across Europe to fire it at the base of the Eiffeltower or something stupid like that before anybody would have known it was even there.

Judging from the comments here, it appears I have completely failed at properly getting across just how early this thing is in development. I've since updated my README with a status report.

As for documentation, that is an active WIP. I have recently pinned down a documentation style I like, and applied it to the newest APIs; all that's left to do really is to spread it to the older APIs as well, and write a tool to turn that documentation into HTML, because I have not found a documentation tool that operates how I want it to.

Being nice works well when people are doing questionable things (and possession is 9/10 of the law if they are not nice in return).
Given the US is a common law system, whats "on the books"
and "how it's currently written" is only part of the story - precedent established in prior cases is another large deciding factor in what the law "is", and judges have a fair degree of latitude to adapt interpretation in this regard. Interpretation is not static either.

> opens the door for legislation from the bench

In common law systems, indirectly this is what happens and has done for centuries. Through interpretation of statute and binding precedent, the bench does get to help define, albeit in far more limited fashion than the legislature, what "the law" is in a common law system. This is one reason why lawyers have to examine both the statute _and_ the case law.

Disappointing is the right word.
I said it might not be a good thing and pointed to a an example where it wasn't. The take away was to not just take the information at hand but do you own research (like you did).

Okay sure. But don't lose track of reality in your quest for idealism though.

There is a vast power imbalance between worker and corporation, both money and power. Businesses control the contracts, they have far more money, and, as a result, they have vastly more powerful lobbying. So in practice, there is no defense for workers anywhere! Kicking the can to "elect someone else" is just as naive as claiming that this decision respects the law on the books.
I think that claim was made in the context of scientific papers, where there is no counterpart to Steam or Netflix.

I use Yelp all the time. I’ve never even considered using Google maps as a replacement for Yelp.

But I just tried it and you know what? I think I might switch. I just did a search for “lunch” from my house, and it came up with all my favorite places. (I know this could be because it’s using what it knows about my location data to suggest places I’ve been to frequently, which is why I’m not totally sold yet).

I’ll try using both for a while and see how it goes.

Ariane chief seems frustrated with SpaceX for driving down launch costs

Hi there. I'm Neal. The author of this analysis. As I recall, I included the cost of gas, and wear and tear in maintenance. The largest cost of cars is depreciation, and that's kept me from buying a car. The only car I would want (a nice car) is going to depreciate faster than I'm comfortable with. Since doing this analysis I've been carless for 2 years and have used Uber and google buses a lot to get from SF to Sunnyvale where I work and fly planes. Since writing I've used Getaround a few times and Turo never. There's a Getaround next door to me (a nice Volvo) and taking that is often less expensive than uber, but less desirable because I've gotten very addicted to the pleasure of not driving the car that I'm riding in.

I like your suggestions here. I've considered buying a car and renting it out like you suggest, but I currently make $100,000/year doing that with the extra room in my SF house, and that's enough work that I can't afford to extra time to do it with a car also. And I think I'll make more money on Airbnb vs. Turo/Getaround. Homes are easier to monetize than cars.

Again, thanks for digging in!
They can start with the corrupt scum that enable this behavior, for example local warlords/political kingmakers that ingratiate themselves to the foreign markets and blatantly enrich themselves at the expense of their neighbors. They're not all "victims."
>On Linux, administrators (root) can extract the keys from ssh-agent.

I don't understand how the situation is different. Of course you can extract the keys from a running ssh-agent since the whole point is not having to provide your password every time so they have to have access to the private key one way or an other. How is the situation different on Windows? Surely when the user is logged an administrator with access to the full RAM and storage will be able to piece everything together (like TFA does for instance)?

On the other hand if you really can't trust your admin you have a huge problem anyway, even with a HSM you could be phished very easily.

Actually overall I'd say that this Windows method is slightly less secure because it means that the Windows keychain thingy is a single point of failure, if somebody compromises it they have access to everything including the ssh keys in the registry.
And that, in a nutshell, is why corporations are their own moral entities, and not just "made of people".
For (more or less trivial) code reviews, JIRA or email work I often just listen to whatever I like and whatever fits the mood. Works well by giving me some endorphins while keeping me able to focus (sometimes I have to avoid listening to stuff I like too much :)).

For coding, design and code reviews that require focus, silence is the best.

My long-time addiction that has helped me a lot on numerous occasions is https://www.focusatwill.com/. I also use it as pomodoro timer. Silence is still better, if you're in a distraction-free environment.

> I believe countries are mostly unaware of this problem

Yes, that's what I was referring to in my ellipsis.

> To me, the problem is that scientists are highly motivated to achieve successes in publishing and prestige and impact, and they are less likely to stand in front of governments and demand open-access and freely circulated articles. This is not in their best interest

I agree that that is a crucial link in the vicious cycle that upholds the current system - I was merely giving a view in the motivations of why even the funders who are aware of the problem are not mandating Open Access without extra costs.
What does this have to do with the above comment ?
I remember when developers gathered at one point and submitted complaints in unison about the sorry state of Bug Reporter (rdar) at the time. I never heard if Apple responded to this directly but the tool did receive an update around the same time. Developers need to rally again, e.g. submitting the same rdar from 400,000 different people, on the topic of App Stores.

Can you elaborate why this is terrible advice?

I have two real-world examples where this notion played out spectacularly:

- An ex-gf took an unpaid internship at the main museum here in San Diego with minimal job prospects upon graduating from USCD with a BA in history. 6 months later she took a full-time position at that museum, beating out someone with a MFA from Stanford simply because she was exposed to so many influential people in the industry who vouched for her. A year after that shee was promoted to managing their event planning dept.

- I transitioned from C# to Rails work by doing a pro-bono project for 4 months @ ~20hrs/week, the main condition was that they paid for a Sr. dev for mentorship. My mentor on that project continued to bring me work following that project, so much so that I quit my day job.

Value can be many things. Money is just one of them.

Going to have to agree with some caveats. Google's review system is pretty superb. But that doesn't mean they don't dominate this area. However, I feel like this is a space that could still use some innovation. I use Waze for navigation but for informational purposes I still use Maps.

I would be, dare I say it, willing to subscribe to a cheap platform that would do both better.

The US isn't really much better, especially when in conflict. It's not like infantry are required to write a report every time they use a grenade when involved in active conflict. The hard part would be shipping it back to the US without detection.

Computers and the internet have given us unprecedented tools to introspect human psychology and perform hyper-targeted campaigns more fine-grained than even just individuals. Companies are weaponizing these tools to hijack our collective brains and alter our behavior for profit via marketing and advertising.

One could argue that we've been influenced by ads for centuries, and the concept of targeting isn't new. But this is one of the cases where a change in amount (how detailed targeting gets) becomes a change in kind. Yes, it looks like the same thing as before just with more data, but it's actually a fundamentally different kind of thing.

Every time we make a discovery or invent a new tool we play around with it for a while, exploring its uses and implications, and find its boundaries. Atomic energy for example. Before we knew exactly what radioactivity was Marie Curie carried around bottles of highly radioactive stuff in her pockets, she was so nonchalant about it that now her notebook has to be kept in a lead box, 100 years later. Since then we've created power sources and weapons and had disasters. Now everything highly radioactive is regulated and tracked.

We're in the "Marie Curie" stage with our advertising tools. We will need to dial back how nonchalant we are about employing these tools against others eventually. Either it comes from within the industry, or it comes from regulation, or we devolve into a dystopia where companies more and more literally own your mind.
So you do agree then, that if I find your intolerance of possibly perfectly fine (after all, why should your judgement of what is acceptable and what is not be any more valid than mine, his, hers, or that guy-over-there's) and at the very least in the US legal and specifically protected, I would have every right to take you out?

Not to godwin this, but historical parallels for your approach here do point very much at Germany.
A lot of consumers think electric cars are already usable by the general populace without too many compromises. I know you have strong opinions about what you personally want in a car, but projecting them onto everyone else doesn't make for interesting HN discussion.
I assume you are using the Windows version. The slowness is a bug that I have to fix; there are several issues about it, and a few ideas of how to fix it. You can comment out some code in container.cpp if you want to have it go fast but also be ugly (the code has to do with transparency of standard controls on tabbed backgrounds).
~/.ssh/id_rsa can be protected by a password, you'll want to access the running ssh-agent process memory to get the key in cleartext (unless the person use some security token in which case you can't access the key, just try to login on a remote computer directly while the HSM is available).
