With laser ablation you fire a high-wattage laser as something to turn a very small surface layer to plasma. The expanding plasma cloud imparts an impulse onto the surface it is ablating, which can be used to slow down debris.

Hi all,

What are your opinions about ssllabs.com vs htbridge.com/ssl/ ?

Should we use them separately, as only one? Or using both of them is fine?

Thank you!
I believe Calm does offer monthly subscriptions (https://www.calm.com/subscribe). Although I do understand that a lot of companies are starting a trend of offering yearly subscriptions, there can be many aspects as to why companies would choose to go for such a pricing model. Any company using a subscription based pricing model would want to make the customers stay for the maximum months possible, basically increase the lifetime value of the customer, maybe the pricing the product per month would be low and then the companies would have to make sure that customers keep subscribing for every month inorder to make maximum profits which also depends on how much is the Customer Acquisition Cost. Another aspect would be where the company knows that customers won't be able to see great results in a few months but the product would be very valuable on a long run, in such cases the companies would probably give 1 month free trial and then a yearly pricing.

I run a productized service (http://draftss.com) where we create unlimited designs for our customer on a monthly based subscription. We create multiple options for each design task that we do for our clients and thus we have a lot of leftover designs. We have been thinking to give away all of these leftover designs for a yearly subscription or maybe even lifelong subscription.

They may be dumb or an asshole or wrong about X, but they're still your brother/sister. I don't mean Trump, I mean Americans, being a subset of humanity. At the very least, they're people you're better off working with in whatever common ground you have, than fighting endless and unwinnable battles about someone being stupid or ugly as a distraction from how badly things are, and how muddy and muddled the road forward is... it's really incredibly sad to see that nation so torn up. Not over nothing, but also not over anything that warrants this, and the way it's treated. Just like Brexit, I get no joy from it. It just sucks, and instead of a growing opportunity, it's just used for more wounds. As if people really want it to get even worse; because whatever the lips say, that's what the hands are doing says.

How much has been achieved by the eye rolling and talking about "the other side" (no matter by whom and at what "side") since Trump was elected? What has been rationally been recognized as a problem, and what steps have been taken towards solutions? Where have people made an effort to hear others, instead of their bubble? I'm sure there are people outside the limelight who actually did do these things, but from what I see being surfaced most of the time, it's kind of a shit show.

I'm sure it's a scene in a movie or ten, where parents have a real bad fight, but then realize that screaming at each other is something their kid should not see, because regardless of who is right, or who wins, or whatever, seeing them sink so low can do a whole other set of damage. This feels like that movie for me, for too long now. Be wary of things that are hard or impossible to come back from.

I'm not one who gives a crap about badges or offices, but even I feel uneasy how the office of the President of the US is being damaged by this. I say by this, not just "by Trump". You have to think of the future, too. And by this I do not mean "no criticism", that is 100% not my point. Adults do have discussions, and they fight, but being demeaning about it is orthogonal to that and not good ever, in no context. And also no matter how wrong or dumb or how much of an asshole someone is. Actually: The more they are, the more you should "win", and the more important it is for that to be clean and fair, and for that to allow them a route to "join the win" by actually coming around from their own volition and voluntary insight.

I'm not American, I never was in America and there has been no president during my lifetime I really liked. I could not care, but I do. Because "any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind" as John Donne wrote, and this can't go on. You are better than this, all of you. Roughly speaking, "you" invented being better at this, ffs. So take care, of yourself and each other, and as in actually do that. Please.

Sorry for it being so jumbled, not sorry for ranting... I adamantly believe in the importance of this thing I don't know how to put well.
Technically, yes. You would cause some plasma to be formed, but I don't think it would in any way worsen the Kessler Syndrome situation.
A flip-phone can be a smart phone.

Blackberries were smartphones. They had enumerable apps shoved into that tiny display, and keyboard model, but they still looked like flip-phones and lacked touch displays.

To me, the 'flip' is just a mechanical implementation detail. The real divide is smart phones versus dumb phones.

Indeed, if the wheels are stuck half open, they disturb the airflow to the radiators. Radiators where of course as small as possible [1], since they cause a lot of drag.

I don’t think I’ve ever had a truly bad manager.
One manager was exceptional: I don’t remembered him actually telling me to do a single thing. Instead, he would say something like: “Could we make it do this?” or “It would be great if it could that.” He acted more like a target designator pointing out what we, as a team, wanted to hit. In addition to that, he was a fun, happy guy and very smart.

I've definietly got a problem with this. I don't feel anxious without the phone, in fact I quite enjoy it. But with it, I find myself checking it during any mental downtime. Brexit-fueled anxiety has caused me to compulsively check the news multiple times a day for a while now. It must be destructive to my mental process.

I'm not going back. I love the camera, I love having my books and music with me everywhere. I love the GPS.

But I can't wait for iOS 12 so I can slap obtuse time limits on my Twitter and browser use.
I hope this apology and acknowledgment of the problems in the process appease Sam. By and large he has been the one to driving the last resistance to adoption of go modules and I can't help but think most of that is just investor's dilemma.

At this point it would be great to no longer be talking about whether go modules should be the thing but working together towards making them work for everyone. (which I don't think is far off actually, Russ and co have done a good job post-reveal of addressing use cases that break with modules)
Personally I don't trust telegram because of their funding source.

Additionally their first encryption protocol was extremely wonky and most people I know would correctly call it unsafe for use in a chat messenger.

Their second version is a tiny bit better but neither has been verified by any proper cryptographer I know.

Additionally Telegram as an App seems more like a Toy rather than a proper chat app, the stickers are big and completely destroy the flow of a conversation last I checked it. Other features are like this too.

Lastly, to my knowledge, end-to-end encryption is not enabled by default, neither for private messaging or groups. That's just a no-go for any chat application for me.

6 Soft Skills Technical Employees Need to Thrive (2017)
Emails are a replacement for letter writing, not a replacement for phone calls.

When they seemingly replace a phone call, its usually because the institution would have liked to use only letter writing but couldn't for some non-technical reason.

Like a company processing refunds and cancelations by phone in order to have the opportunity to convince clients not to cancel (i.e. non-technical reason), now uses email or chat systems to accomplish the same thing.
When I start at a company I bring my own phone and own data plan. The dev team gets my phone number and nobody else. No work email on my phone, only the work calendar so I know how early to start the day.

That way you don't have to carry two phones, be tied to a dual-sim phone or have troubles when you leave the company (in case you use the company phone number for private calls too).
> Slack doesn't have an on-prem option. Microsoft Teams doesn't have an on-prem option. What are enterprises supposed to use, RocketChat? Matrix? With no clear migration path?

Ahem:

Bond: You expect me to [use RocketChat or Matrix]?

Atlassian: No, Mr. Bond; I expect you to die.

If Atlassian are killing this "wing" of their HipChat business, it must have not been a very large money-maker for them. The market for this kind of product is dying, in other words. Along with the companies who refuse to re-evaluate the threat-surface of moving their communications to the cloud.

Look at it this way: IBM uses Slack. That means that 1. they researched the security threat model and were okay with using it for their own internal data; and 2. they managed to convince all their clients that those clients' internal data, and those clients' customers' PII, would be fine being passed over Slack. That's a pretty large argument, in my mind, for the idea that there's nothing about Slack that disqualifies it from even the crustiest dinosaur of a corporation's requirements. To mangle a phrase: "Nobody ever offended a conservative regulator by copying IBM's choices."

Or do you have security requirements that IBM—in its professional-services interactions with a whole ecosystem of clients, including banks and government agencies—doesn't? If so, maybe you need something on-prem.

Even then, though, you realize that you can just not put the critical stuff directly into Slack, without much impact on your workflow, right? If you're e.g. an investment firm, doing BI and quantitative analysis over tons of data, you can still talk over Slack while keeping the actual data to your Intranet. When you want to refer to the data in the chat, you paste the link to the (Intranet-hosted) data into the channel. Slack can't visit the link, but you can. Isn't that enough for... pretty much any use-case?

The difference between us back then and us now is context. We live in an age of complete overwhelming external stimulus. You see food or calorie-laden drinks everywhere you look. The point of routine, which is also an evolutionary trait, is to reduce reliance on willpower and avoid wasting energy on making decisions. These are real problems that we have right now because of our body's greedy, opportunistic behavior (which was evolutionarily advantageous when food wasn't so abundant and also had completely different forms).

Without some notion of space-time you could not have a meaningful notion of locality, therefore Bell's Theorem is a non-issue. But you don't need a relativistic space-time for Bell's Theorem, any space-time in which physical influences travel at a bounded speed will suffice.

Bell's Theorem does, however, create an uneasy tension between quantum theory and special relativity. Tim Maudlin writes quite a good book about this called "Quantum Non-Locality and Relativity".

In Japanese, there are also distinctions like these, but only in characters, not words. For example:

- 叔母さん and 伯母さん both read おばさん (obasan) and mean, respectively, younger sister of father or mother and elder sister of father or mother.

- 叔父さん and 伯父さん both read おじさん (ojisan) and mean, respectively, younger brother of father or mother and elder brother of father or mother.

- お母さん and お義母さん both read おかあさん (okaasan) and mean, respectively, mother and mother in law.

Yes, it's not about the money. It's about slavery. Tech giants want their workers to spend as much time as possible near their working places. Even during their lunch time when people are supposed to get some rest from their jobs, walk to the nearby restaurant, maybe meet some new people instead of those faces they see every f'ng day. NO! Facebook, etc. don't allow any distraction. They wrap slavery in shiny candies and give it to employees who are so happy that they are bragging about sushi, whatever to instagram. The new regulations are going to break that and that's perfect!

Printing out maps sucked. Usually the only way I could manage a long journey would be to stick a summary of the major routes somewhere where it could be glanced at safely, e.g. whilst stopped at traffic lights. I'd make it within a few miles of the destination then get lost and have to pull over to read the map. This was better than the alternative of having the traditional map-reading conversation* whilst driving, though.

I tried dedicated satnavs but they always seemed to be quite expensive, not always reliable and a bit of a hassle to keep updated. The iPhone 3G (inc. S) was OK but its GPS wasn't sensitive enough and it usually resorted to shouting out random directions when in a city centre. Later iOS devices seem better, as do Android phones even of the same era as the iPhone mentioned above. Google maps has been very good, though the reporting of my position to Google isn't something I care for.

The business of demeaning the President has been going on for years, dating back to the Clinton administration at least; there was a real scandal (sexual harassment of an intern) among a huge cloud of guilt-by-association scandals (Whitewater etc) that were held onto despite being cleared by thorough investigations.

Then we had all those people trying to claim that Obama wasn't born in the US and was therefore disqualified?

Maybe just don't speculate across power domains? I.e. if a speculative execution would require bringing up the AVX2 unit that might be a bad idea anyway because it slows down everything else even if the branch is mispredicted.

Or at least execute it on the slow path if the unit is not up (lower execution width) without triggering the ramp-up as long as it is speculative. Only ramp-up when the instruction is committed.
Why I'm Selling My Ski/Travel Startup for $5000
I've decided to sell my skiing website WhereTo.Ski (https://whereto.ski/) on Flippa.com. It's bittersweet sale for me as I do love the idea, the industry, but my environmental concerns with promoting travel have trumped my desire to carry on with it.

WhereTo.Ski connects skiers to the best places to go skiing based on snow forecast, base snow depth and cheapest flights (from SkyScanner).

We had some great future plans to integrate way more API's like Airbnb but focused on Private Chalets to start with as I've done a few ski seasons so had a few contacts.

The site has been automated as much as possible so haven't really needed to touch it technically all season. We've done some copy changes but that's about it. It's a complete JavaScript stack so the new owner would need to know React, Redux, MongoDB and Node.

The most difficult parts we found was to get the correct based snow depth. You can buy this but it was pretty expensive so we ended up making our own scraper which is essentially what everyone else does anyway.

I've added a reserve of $5000 as that's how much time I took off work to make it. I hope you like the idea and the site as much as I do and please let me know if you have any questions and I want to make sure it goes to a great new home.
