Or that they are not old enough to have built up a larger legitimate network.

Imagine the LinkedIn’s-dream-case of someone starting to use LI as soon as they are old enough to type (or hell, to say ‘hey cortana’) and sticking with it nearly from cradle to grave. How many years until even connecting with only legit other people gets them over 500?

I have over 500, am pretty selective about connecting and I’m also over 40. Really what is needed is some kind of better metric than the number of connections anyway. Though one might ask better for who; it seems likely that it’s to LinkedIn’s advantage to hold the true graph connectivity closely so only they can profit thereby.

I’ve also been thinking for awhile lately that I’m just part of the problem here and that it’d be not a bad idea to rather be part of the solution by getting off LinkedIn, to try and recapture some of the value that they’ve been deriving from the data I and my connections have been feeding them. Again, another example of the old “if you’re not paying for the service you’re probably the product being sold” corollary to the more familiar proverb concerning the price of lunches.

Returning to the prospect of things like the ideal scenario for LI, I feel like the minimum age for joining any of these “free” services should be something like 30, so one has enough life experience to figure out that it may not actually be a bargain they are willing to make.

Hmm, I just realized that the shorthand I’ve been using for LinkedIn could be pronounced like “lie”. I think I’ll start using that when talking about LI verbally.
This is looking at the wrong level of abstraction though. The compiler will already optimize your code in a way that multiple uses of the same uninitialized value can produce different results.

Arguing about these assembly/CPU-level details (unfortunately?) is besides the point when debating the semantics of languages like C, C++ or Rust.

In the later you can also forget project A exist. git log works in subdirectories out of the box and if you didn't touch any files in project A a rebase will be trivial without any merge conflicts. Branching is also free (unless you are still in the SVN stoneage that requires a copy of each file) so it doesn't matter if you branch the whole monorepo or just a single project.

St. Simon's Island was a childhood vacation spot for me. I loved it. Having gone back just this year for the first time in over 20 years, I realized I like it even more now that I can enjoy the small-beach-town atmosphere and the deep-rooted history.

It's not Orlando, It's not Miami, it's not even Jacksonville. It's a tiny little spot with decent beaches, a long history that's reasonably-well-preserved, and quiet relaxation.

The marsh that's pictured in this article (labelled "boardwalk over marsh") looks like the Bloody Marsh [0], the site of the battle that was the "last straw" for the Spanish in their attempts to claim land further up from Florida (which used to extend a bit farther north than it does today).

The colony of Georgia was chartered by Britain around this area in part as a response to that "invasion", in an attempt to protect the important British port of Charleston up in Carolina (before the NC/SC split). Of course, the other key motivation was to have a whole bunch of land to use as an alternative to overcrowded debtor's prisons, so there's that.

This is in part why Savannah (another beautiful historic coastal spot in Georgia, though a much larger one) was so significant to the state for so much of its early history: it was the first planned city in the state, as evidenced by the fact that it's home to the oldest still-standing building in the entire state (a gardener's shed built in the early 1700s, now part of a tourist-trap restaurant).

All this to say: yes, Georgia definitely has a coast, and it's worth seeing (in this HNer's opinion), and worth preserving.
This is inherently the same as YOLO.
This is an extremely good question, and I do not have a satisfying answer. Note that `malloc` is special in the C standard as well, and AFAIK it is not possible to implement `malloc` in standard C at all.

Heck, there are several models of C out there where you cannot implement `memcpy`.

> A pointer is literally a stored memory address, i.e. an integer

You’re mixing implementation with definition. A pointer is (usually) implemented in terms of an integer (i.e. its physical representation is a sequence of bytes interpreted as an integer offset in memory). But that isn’t what a pointer is. The C++ standard (or the C standard, or Rust, or any of many other languages) defines pointers as a concept that has all kinds of properties that integers don’t have. The whole point of this blog post is that this distinction is crucial in order to guarantee type safety and allow the compiler to perform basic optimisations.

This requires the device to be connected to the internet often which isn’t always the case. If the device is the gateway you now have a circular dependency (one that will only cause problems rarely but it’s still there.)

As long as http still works it’s fine, I think a security warning about it is probably a good thing, but there definitely are places where “just use let’s encrypt” isn’t an acceptable solution.

My biggest criticism of Peterson is how he attacks “the left”.

“The left” is not one unified, cohesive group because it’s not centered on a single defining characteristic like white nationalism. “The left” includes everyone from teachers to catholic nuns to queer radical activists.

The defining characteristic of “the left” is that it is they are threatened by the advance of authoritarian, militaristic policies. Which is to say that they are the people who would lose out from white nationalism.

Therefore, the left is starting to organize around its opposition to white nationalism, but doesn’t yet know how to attack it because white nationalists deny their white nationalism. But the left is still just as fractured, divided, and focused on small specific things that don’t necessarily agree.

Q&A with CEO of a 4-day Work Week Software Company
I know most of your stories are about Hard Drives, the 4U Stack, its software and DC. But I don't seems to record any stories about being bootstrapped. As compared to lots of other VC backed startup. Are you guys taking investment, if not why not?

Is cash flow or capital a concern for EU DC? If yes, have you consider Crowdsourcing?
Drone photography is transforming how we tell visual stories. I've been doing photography since college and rather passionately for the past 15 years (some of my work here[0]).

I have literally changed my perspective, and I am obsessed with it. Shooting from a drone, with a straight-down vantage point, has allowed me to explore my coastal muse with a brand new eye

To me along with mobile phone, the drones are transforming how ordinary people are able to capture and tell amazing stories.

You can argue drone photography, is the most important camera innovation of the past 100 years.

Sadly, there are a lot of backlashes against it. Before I became a convert, I found them annoying, too. People do not like the buzzing sound (which I agree and I'm glad companies like DJI are doing innovations to reduce the buzzing sound). There are a lot of privacy concerns, which is fair. But I don't see that privacy concern in public areas any worse than mobile phones.

I just hope that drone operators use common sense and be considerate and not ruin the use of this amazing technology, for the rest of us.

DIY: Build a Custom Minimal Linux Distribution from Source
Every browser is vulnerable to DNS rebind attacks, since the burden of "fixing" it has been pushed onto the applications that are getting traffic forwarded by the browser.

Also services like Cloudflare wouldn't work if low TTLs didn't work. CF rotate IPs often as part of their DDoS protection.
Yea, IMO there is a connection there. Although I also think a lot of people only retire when they're on their last leg health wise. They probably would have passed regardless of retirement in the same time frame.

I don't think it's a cause for concern but I would look at seeing if there's a way to feel refreshed with a longer sleep.

It might just be that your natural sleep cycle is almost exactly two hours long (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_cycle). Therefore at four hours you have completed a cycle, whereas at seven hours you are halfway through one. Perhaps try eight hours and see what happens?

Out of curiosity do you use an alarm to wake yourself up, and did you before? I'd be quite surprised if someone could sustain four hours sleep a night without an alarm. I've often heard that if you need an alarm to wake up then you're not sleeping sufficiently.
Just got back from Germany, and adored the trains. Everyone, including the passengers worked together to make the schedule on time by getting up, smartly grabbing their bags and getting off at the stop without loitering.

That said, the website for buying tickets was atrociously bad. We had a group of six and the website was full of bugs and broken for tickets with more than five people. You essentially have to do one ticket with 5 and one with 1.

We even went to the gate agent for help and they had similar problems.

I know it probably wasn't your intention to single out Let's Encrypt, but it's probably worth mentioning that almost any registrar, not just LE, would issue a certificate for a scam site, provided they can prove they own the domain.
I know nothing of the neuroscience but I have a theory we look at memory wrong. We see it like storage. You take a cup, put it in a cabinet, and bring it out later.

But what about memories as your brain, not pulling it from storage, but entirely regenerating the experience. So its remaking the cup every time, not pulling it from the cabinet.

False/faulty memory is common. We’re regenerating the experience inaccurately. Like if you drew a picture then had to draw it again. It would look the same but slightly different. The cup after all if stored would always be retrieved exactly as it was.

True. But I've used laptops where the fan exhaust was unbearably hot. And I'm sure that was much cooler than 90°C.

So maybe someone could check exhaust temperature on a 2018 Macbook Pro with i7 under heavy load. I get that the exhaust ports are on the back, near the display hinge. But that still might be iffy, for those who cross their legs.

Discrete GPU on my former MBP 2010 would regularly crash. Would need to force it on the integrated, slower though less power hungry Intel GPU.

Supposedly the whole Nvidia debacle is the reason why Apple hardware doesn't sport Nvidia anymore. Though you can get them to work sometimes with iGPU, its more safe to keep up with AMD.

I'm not sure about FreeSync vs Gsync though, and I suppose Moonlight doesn't work on AMD.

Certificates are public documents, it isn't a problem if everybody sees them. Committing the certificate is, at worst, a minor inconvenience for someone who doesn't want your certificate because they don't trust your CA.

A _Private Key_ is the thing that needs to be kept private, in Microsoft Windows it's common to bundle this together with a corresponding Certificate in a single file, often with the filename extension .PFX I assume it's more "convenient" this way, shame about the security.

If you do this a LOT (maybe you're a team of fifty developers at a software company that mostly builds web apps but has a strict policy of not using "real" certificates or wildcards) you should mimic the hierarchy required of "real" public Certificate Authorities:

Mint a "root CA". You'll end up with a certificate and a private key, let's call them root-C and root-P. Every developer (and QA and so on) system needs to trust root-C, you can use Group Policy or similar tools to arrange that.

Use the root CA to issue a sub-CA, the "issuing CA". Write _constraints_ in the certificate used to issue this sub-CA. A constraint is a rule about what things the Subject is an authority about in the opinion of the Issuer. So for example if you set a DNS constraint of just example.com, certs for example.org, or google.com from this Issuing CA don't work. If you later acquire example.org, you can "just" replace the Issuing CA. No updates to employee systems. Think about the Constraints you write, so that they block "mistakes" like MITMing google.com, but not anything you expect to actually need. You can also constrain the types of certs issued. Will you only issue TLS server certs? Then write a constraint saying so.

Now, lock away root-P, a serious CA has it in a special hardware device to protect it, but a USB key in a locked desk drawer is a good first step.

The Issuing CA credentials will probably need to stay live on someone's computer, they're valuable of course, but because of the Constraints they now aren't an unlimited black hole in your security.
Besides cost ($2000 per sq mm for fabrication) and design (the hardware design industry requires 6-7 figure $ software, and nothing is open source), the main problem is copyright and IP.

Any venture will require sufficient funding - and (by necessity) produce sufficient volume that it creates a pile of press - that nobody will touch it unless the copyright and IP issues are 100.00% cleared by a very large pile of lawyers.

I've just started reading this, but the counter is that at the age the students are their bodies start to produce chemicals that mean their sleep pattern tends towards late nights (evolutionary advantageous as young fitter ones of the tribe are active at the most dangerous time of day) and consequently are sleepier if forced to wake at a time where their body is still chemically calling for sleep.

While you make some valid points, I think you're taking it a bit far with your statement that your tax authority performs extortion. Taxes are a part of citizenship. If you do not like that, that is your right. You cannot just stop paying them just because you are selfish, that is not how social contracts work. While on some levels you can call that extortion (it is after all backed by violence to some degree), you'd have to be pretty willfully blind to not recognize that most people wouldn't use the term like that. Unless you have a point you are making that I'm missing?

Unsure why this is downvoted.

When averaging results over a whole city, you've eliminated most sources of noise. But if you average neighborhood by neighborhood, then you have 20x smaller samples, and on top of that, 20x more chances to p-hack. So it's unsurprising to me that there exists some neighborhood where crime rates dropped significantly in one year.

That does indeed look like the issue I am experiencing. We've got a setup where our IRC channel is relayed to/from Gitter so I am usually on IRC instead of Gitter web. But this means that I need to manually discard mentions on Gitter web, otherwise I get a notification that is super long containing all my mentions. This means I cannot easily see what was said to me at the time of the notification.
