My freshman year of high school we had similar access. Mostly used it for auto-installing Doom on all the library computers at once every time the poor admin went through each computer and manually deleted it.

One friend wrote a fake login program that would immediately quit and run the real login program so we could collect credentials.

Another friend got in real trouble though, supposedly for either trying to or actually changing grades. I knew we could get in trouble. But I also never would have considered doing anything other than pranks.

Of course, even pranks can be dangerous. One of my friends found an open mail server (not that there were any shortage of those at the time) and sent some prank emails that could have gotten him in real trouble.

The explanation for why it didn't leave a crater is pretty unsatisfying.

I was expecting something about the flat shape and how it might have skipped over the atmosphere and/or induced a lot of drag.

I did search a bit but didn't find an article that had both a plausible explanation and some credible source.
Didn't most perl5 OOP move to the Moose library, that set a bunch of standard method names and hid all the bless'ing stuff in its internals?
An interesting story about a meteorite, but what struck me was a sign of the deification of Google ... a reader comment after the article reads: "Wonderful description and High Quality Pictures. >>> Thanks Google<<< " -- emphasis is mine.

The source material, writing, comments system tied to the article all have nothing to do with Google, yet the reader is attributing their joy in the article to Google. I've seen Google deified in jest, but I don't think the reader here is anything but serious.

Praise Google, Glory Be to Google, Google is Good, Google is Author of All That Brings Us Joy. Google's Yoke is Easy and Their Burden is Light ... Google only asks for your email and search/location/browsing history. We Are Google's Image. Come to Google Just As You Are.

(Full Disclosure: I am happy to make the trade with Google ... for some reason I trust Google and Amazon, don't think Apple has a clue outside their hardware & associated software, and hate Facebook / Twitter.)
Nothing beats searx.me - Google's results are good (but slipping), but when you combine Google, DDG and Bing, it doesn't get any better
How many countries Chrome is ranked #1 in doesn't matter and is a distraction.

Overall market share is infinitely more important.

E.g. assuming a two-browser world, it would be drastically more of a problem for Chrome to have 99% market penetration in 98 countries and 49% in the other 97 (so ranked #1 in only half, but still a huge problem)... than it is to have 51% market penetration in 192 countries and 49% penetration in a remaining 3 (so ranked #1 in nearly all, but no problem at all).

The real question from a healthy competition standpoint is, what is the market share which we consider to be "fully taken over", where competitors are no longer viable?
Isn't brave based on chrome?

I think Slack is actually using standardized tech that hasn't been implemented/or not implemented well in Firefox. Chrome doesn't have an ActiveX analogy. Anything you use in Chrome is based on a standard, although some, like the directory traversal, are standards that never saw completion and exist only because Chrome kind of jumped the gun and can't remove those things now.
Perhaps not but that point of view is a dramatic over simplification of the situation. I used nicotine as a cruch while dealing with mental health issues. Part of the time I was smoking I really did _need_ it. Taking it away from me then would have been cruel.
It's what I'm currently working on - I think its great, because you go really in-depth on each issue, or make a simple "just works" solution.

It has taught me a lot of things in different areas.
If you haven’t switched to Brave yet from Chrome, you should. Great browser built on open source
It shouldn’t be the point, but Facebook wants it to be, because the more eyeballs looking at their site, the more money they get. In order to maximize eyeballs, they make their site as addictive as possible.
It didn't move per se. You can use Moose as an abstraction if you want. But Moose is just a pure Perl module using bless at the bottom.

Edit: Maybe not pure Perl anymore? Would be VERY surprised if bless wasn't at the bottom though.
I think they are majorly based in India,and while these rates aren't stellar, they may be par rates in India.
It's just a listing of countries where Chrome is not the most used browser. I'm guessing IE is more popular in those countries, due to old computing equipment being popular.
I'm not sure how I could, without having access to CloudFlare-scale compute and load, be able to answer your question.

My point is that the article in question makes claims that I'm not sure are correct, and I wonder whether the engineers behind this solution decided against containers because of their initial experience (this isn't a dig against them, this is a very common trait of almost everyone -- you don't want to waste your time if the first impression you have is negative). Several of the statements (especially about memory) appear to be based on misunderstandings of how containers would actually operate in such a scenario (or based on testing with sub-optimal configuration).

Maybe I'm completely wrong that containers would work under this kind of load in this scenario, but reading the article I didn't find many arguments I would expect to see if someone had really tried to make it work with containers and found the flaws. Instead it reads (at least to me) to be more of a "at first glance this doesn't appear to work" -- which is a fine thing to base product decisions on, but it isn't really okay to then spread (what appears to me to be) misinformation unless you have done significant testing to justify it.

So I disagree that my argument is moot -- and I would like to know how much cheaper the userland context switches are in V8 (I just looked and it appears that V8 does have a multi-threaded core now -- but hopefully CloudFlare doesn't use that with their userland threading+isolation model...).
Something I did in addition to removing push notifications was deleting the apps. When I want to look at a Reddit thread or a tweet, I have to use my mobile browser, and endure their painful UI. Some might consider this paranoid or masochistic, but I find that for me it prevents further exploration beyond the thread/tweet I was originally interested in.
It's kind of a double joke. The machine is dumb because it doesn't remember what language you chose. The second part is that if his language suddenly changes, it's probably not him. Removing the withdrawal limit allows the person with his stolen credentials to get more money.
With the advent of Firefox Quantum, and with the god awful Chrome 69-70 updates, I abandoned Chrome once and for all and it feels great. There's no point in the foreseeable future where I'll be going back.
I'm not talking about pay gap and that's an expanded notion that I haven't talked about either.

Human beings are pretty good, on the whole, about tradeoffs. For most people, the information they're trading away is only theoretically valuable, but the products they receive in return have very tangible value.

Can you give us a mini review of the system76 laptop that you have? How's the build quality, battery life, after sales support etc.
Not is the baseline. I'm not drawing any conclusions until there's proof otherwise.

Note: (probably) was in parens in a wink wink editorial sorta way. That is, I didn't want to say it as fact. But hint, given the lack of absolutely evidence, otherwise, it's a pretty safe presumption.
I have also had a health professional who was scathing about the lo-salt campaign "very well marketed".

The only problem is what they replace sale, sugar fat with can be worse.
I recently wrote an article about objects / classes in Perl 5 and Perl 6, which also touches on Moose: https://opensource.com/article/18/11/how-make-perl-more-clas...

I seem to recall that most of Moose is XS now?
Is it me or does this sound a lot like a TV show/film plot? The whole idea of a band pretending they're more popular than they are and then performing to an empty theatre feels like something from a zany sitcom...

Still, I'm not too surprised it happened. It's quite common for 'influencers' to fake their popularity online, and I've seen thousands of pseudo celebrities buy followers/make fake accounts to try and trick advertisers into thinking they're more popular than they actually are. Happens quite a bit with authors and books too; the likes of Robert Stanek and Gloria Tesch relied almost entirely on shills and paid marketing in an attempt to make people think their works had an actual fanbase/were going to be the next big thing.

Still, guess it's the logical extreme for the whole 'fake it till you make it' thing. If you can't build a real audience after doing that, this is what you're left with.
Ask HN: How to determine body position while sleeping?
Hello, I need help figuring how to tell in which position someone is sleeping using a camera (and ML i guess?), i.e sleeping on left/right side, back, sleeping on your stomach.

Is there such a ting that already exists?

Any help to point me in the right direction is greatly appreciated, thank you!
Not sure I understand the "Plus [...]" part: this is new research, so obviously no one is going to implement this at scale until there's been some time for people to go over the approach and either confirm the maths is solid, or find problems with it. But that is universally true for any new low level design, I assume we all understand that "it's still in peer review" implies "so now it needs to be put to the test", not "and now we all use it without question" =)
No, but you see, shareholders may eventually profit from that. But if its publicly funded and the public benefits, its a bad thing because how can capital get some sweet returns in this scenario?
Oh. I just think FF is a better browser. Never liked Chrome at all.
Because it's also the first to get major rewrites. The Stylo CSS engine used to be Nightly only, and Nightly is basically the only channel you can test the latest Quantum components.
I keep wanting to use Firefox on Mac, but the CPU issues cause constant fan churn.

I end up having to stick with Safari as my resistance browser. (Which isn't so bad, actually. I feel like Safari is pretty underrated in these discussions.)
How Vladimir Lenin Became a Mushroom (2017)
As a child of parents who either didn't go to college, or were the first in the entire extended family and didn't graduate: This rings true.

I was always encouraged to go to school. It's important they said. You need it to get a good job.

BUT! The teachers are stupid. Don't trust them too much. They dont know everything. If they were really that good, they'd be doing it, not teaching. Always question what they tell you, verify things on your own. If something doesn't make sense, speak up and get them to explain. You'll soon see how shallow their knowledge really is.

And don't worry. You're never gonna need any of this in real life. Grades are important! Get good grades. But also don't worry coz nobody is gonna care as soon as you're out of school.

Mixed signals right?

I never graduated and I like to think I got everything I needed out of college except a piece of paper.

PS: In high school I was everyone's worst nightmare. When I was engaged, I'd ask a lot of questions and derail the instruction. When I thought your subject was stupid, I'd just not participate, avoid any and all homework, and get straight Fs.

The straight Fs in particular had to have been frustrating to teachers because I'd then learn enough of their entire year's worth of curriculum in 2 weeks to get a D and pass the class.

PPS: My mum eventually did go to college when I was in college. She graduated before me. Still says it's useless IRL.
Oh another technology needlessly rewritten in a "cool" language. Why don't you make your competing USB standard while you're at it?
For these three countries it is Firefox with the largest market share.
Switch to FF recently was entirely painless - the seem functionally identically for my usage cases. Probably prefer chrome on the whole but ugh fk google and their stance to privacy
35MB is what Amazon reports and bills you based on. If that number is wrong, a great question is what are they charging people for?

Launching a process is different than launching a language runtime or interpreter. They generally are not optimized for initial start time in the way an Isolate is. The duration of a context switch varies, but when dealing with tens of thousands of requests per second per machine they are very significant.
Thanks! We were concerned about continuous variables. For categorical values there might be some improvement although it might require extra attention not to be bias due to the dynamic range or cardinality of the values.
The list of carcinogens in link(or in Wikipedia) does not include Nictone. However, nicotine is a stimulant and can be addiction inducing.
I appreciate I'm a single data point and it's not scientific but with the same "typical" session open, the idle stats spread across all processes, on MBP2017:

Chrome (v70): ~10% CPU
FF (v63): ~7% CPU
You're ignoring inflation. The iBook G4 shipped in 2003, and the cheapest one (no wifi!) cost $1100. In today's dollars, that's over $1500. The entry level Apple laptop today costs only $1200, or 20% less in absolute terms.

For the lower cost, you get far better hardware (CPU, battery, screen, wifi included, etc) and software (10.14 vs 10.3, iWork included for free, good selection of free modern web browsers, etc).

If the iBook G4 seemed very reasonable, the 2018 MacBook Air should seem like a steal. It's not just better value (technology always does that), but lower absolute cost. The only thing they haven't done is drop prices faster than inflation, but that's a pretty arbitrary line.
There are some similarities, but it's not an identical situation.

When IE6 was parked and browsers were considered 'done', it was a closed source monolith tightly coupled to the dominant OS. Today Chromium is open source, even if Chrome isn't, and browsers are used on a greater variety of operating systems. Just as it's common for an owner of a new Mac or PC to install Chrome as a first task, there are no technical reasons why something else couldn't be the dominant choice - just familiarity and inertia. Those things change.

The other reason things are slightly different is because of better compliance with Web standards. For a web developer in the late 90's, it was easy to get drawn in to using Microsoft's proprietary tinkering with the DOM (only now are they able to resist the temptation to EEE, probably not through choice or natural instinct). Browsers now put much more emphasis on standards compliance, making web site and app portability common and expected.

> Student: How does a nation avoid this outcome when the math is the same?

Economist: As I have told you multiple times by now, it isn't. That is what we taught you in first year. You can't simply arbitrarily scale up models from lemonade stand to international trade. Things are not all linear, simplifications in one model are simply not valid in another model.

Arguments like these always strike me as similar to "if evolution, then why are there still monkeys". Maybe you are right, everything is really simple and everybody else has been too stupid to see it. Or maybe people are right when they tell you that you don't quite understand what you are talking about.

Containers are great for personal use only, not for enterprise industries. I myself have a bunch of containers running but beside simplicity of deployment I don't find them useful. That's what they made for, to actually save deployment time, not make things fast or secure.
Just got ATH-m50xBT headphones, brand new as of last week, comes with a MicroUSB. WTF Audio Technica!
This sounds fun but honestly reminds me of all these emacs folks who've turned a text editor into a byzantine operating system with email, RSS, microwave cooking, and laundry folding.
Yeah, interallied debt to the US was linked to German reparations which stopped in 1932 (I think?). The US wasn't fussed about it...so I'm not sure it was a default.

The other one I can think of was the downgrade of the coupon on WW1 war bonds from 5% to 3.5%. Again, seemingly everyone agreed with this, so there is some debate over whether it was an actual default.
I'm not sure of the Protestant's focus or lack thereof, but many popular colleges in the U.S. are Jesuit universities: Boston College, Georgetown, and Fordham, for instance.
It sounds like your parents gave you great advice and instilled independent thinking into you (and realistic expectations for what education can provide).

There are a lot of people out there who did great in school but never learned to think for themselves. Some of those people are now saddled in debt and don't have the skills to dig their way out.
Yeah I've been doing much the same, I've given mastodon a pass for now for direct mentions only (which tootdon lets you configure) because those notifications are people's actual interactions with me - whereas with Twitter and Facebook it's generally any old crap that happens to one of my friends or follows, or sometimes even somebody else who some people I know have followed (who cares?!) so that gets turned right off. In fact I don't even have the Facebook app, I just look at it in my browser - sometimes it still manages to sneak a few notifications through Chrome even though I was sure I turned those off.

Mostly it's just very annoying when for some reason my phone doesn't manage to prioritise push messages which come from direct messages or SMS and so they somehow manage to get buried under a honking slew of social media detritus.
A team spent years raising funds and developing first Light Table, then Eve, only to walk away with apologies. Why does this make me frustrated? Does the team owe those who pitched money into this (I wasn't one because I didn't know of Light Table at the time) a show of commitment to their product? I can't help but think of the bad will Google garnered shutting down beloved products, such as Inbox and Reader. That bad will will take decades to repair, perhaps longer.

I am not making any personal attacks: I am only curious at the way I feel knowing two projects were shuttered before they really had their chance to live.
Given that most newer laptops (and phones) support charging via the same USB-PD standard (via USB-C) I don't see the reason for including yet another power adapter in the box when the average user probably already has enough of them at home.

I charge all my laptops (Macbook Pro and a Thinkpad) and my phone (Pixel XL) via the same Apple USB-C charger. I'd rather not have yet-another-charger that I'm not going to use included in the box of my next laptop/phone.
> It's up to every one of us to achieve this, and to be honest, what are you missing in Firefox that Chrome does?

Working hardware acceleration that makes videos play instead of stutter.
From a backers perspective, I agree. They need to do a lot of work to repair some of the damage done from letting just about any campaign go on there site. It was a shortsighted move that was probably done out of desperation.
Think how much better the experience would be with air pods though!

(not that i don't kinda want some air pods)
"Wouldn’t it also work to create a large shock-absorbing facility on earth?"

Yeah, sure. would be possible. Simple physics.

The crater Chicxulub absorbed more Energy than a billion times the energy of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.[1] So you basically would just need a hell of an airbag. Hey, if you do it right and you can harvest the energy then you can run the world electricity supply on it for a few years.

Since no one mentioned it so far: Emacs has a mode built-in called Org Mode which has fantastic table support: https://orgmode.org/manual/Tables.html

I'm using it every day for so many things, importing and exporting of data, calculations, writing offers to clients, there's an infinite amount of good things to be done with spreadsheets within your text document.
I was a die hard Chrome user until about 4 years ago, switched to Firefox since then and I rarely feel the need to open Chrome, which I keep around just for the occasional testing of websites.

I never had problems with YouTube. That said Gmail or the GSuite Admin are a little slower in Firefox.

But you know what?

They are slow enough in Chrome too. Latest Gmail is a piece of shit.

So the solution to that was to switch to a desktop client (Mailmate, which can handle Gmail just fine) and for my personal email I switched to FastMail. And I'm very happy about it.

Get out of the Google bubble. The air is clean on this side of the fence ;-)
I agree - because humans generally seem to be pretty bad at including more than the immediate here and now in their tradeoff calculations.

I'd see this as an argument why stuff like privacy can't be left to individual choice.
the talk is from the US, where the american dream forces doctors into individual practice being the norm.
Luckily for those of us that do care about privacy, we have HonePod. Not quite as comprehensively creepy as Alexa, but of similar utility and definitely better when it comes to audio quality.

If you’re on a Mac, I recommend Safari in those cases. It’s so much more performant and energy saving than FF, it’s hard to ignore.

(Signed: an ardent FF user :) )
I use Chrome to play mkv videos from my Nextcloud. Firefox doesn't support it.
I think it's very reasonable that the best possible security is not implemented in microcode.
Wow, you say you're not drawing a conclusion and then "wink wink" go on to do exactly that, and in contradiction to the article without proof or even a rationale for why you seem disinclined to believe in the stated statistical significance on display here.
Statistics are never "absolute" in the way you seem to be demanding, they're a matter of probability and likihood of chance outcomes. The outcomes cited here are well within established bounds of statistical significance and as well they comport with the existing body of research on educational outcomes.
I find the conclusion of the article to be surprising.

In modern times, we understand that access to markets is the determining factor in income. It is why those who live in cities can typically make more than those who live in rural areas, and why – as you alluded to – those with family connections to business find themselves making more than those who don't have an "in." It is even why people strongly advocate for limiting competition (through unions, for example) in a marketplace in order to increase incomes (or other benefits) of those who are in the inner circle.

One would naturally conclude that missions were correlated with access to markets, perhaps due to springing up where markets were already strong, but the article seems to have determined that education caused the higher incomes back then. Something that hasn't proven true in modern times, where incomes have held stagnant over the years for groups that have seen an increase in college attainment.
I agree. Perhaps shape plus angle of fall and there could have been a thick forest in that place or maybe a lake.
You can try solo traveling + staying in hostels. Highly recommmend.
