Enhancing Secure Boot Chain on Fedora 29
So you're advocating abandoning scientific and Enlightenment principles and returning to societies based on superstition and theocratic authoritarianism?

That seems like an odd stance to take given how much mayhem, misery and death religion has caused but to each their own, I guess.
Too bad no wasm on IE 11

Where it would be needed most
I agree with you. Just in the last five years of living in Williamsburg I've seen the neighborhood change a lot. I remember that local pharmacy you are referring to before it got turned into an Apple store, and before the Whole Foods got built on the same block.

I'm not gonna lie, I'm part of the gentrification problem over the last five years, but to be fair New York gentrified me at the same time that I helped gentrify the neighborhood. I only made about 30k a year before I moved to New York and I lived in a trailer home back then. After moving to New York I got a few different tech jobs and now I live in one of those over-priced one month free buildings.

I share my story just to say that in my perspective gentrification is a complicated system, and like you I also have a personal stake in all this. In my experience working in tech in New York has been a huge opportunity to improve my life. Amazon would have offered roughly another 25k people such an opportunity, some of them would have been newcomers, and some hopefully long term NYC residents. I can't lie, some people might not have benefited as much as others, but at least those 25k would have been able to get the same opportunity I did when I moved here.

Your dismissal is not a counterargument. These approaches have worked in the past, multiple times, with many different companies, to enact change. They may or may not work every time. And on the flip side, in some cases not everyone will agree that they should work. Your position of what should happen to these companies is not necessarily a universal position.
I like this solution - I'm not very used to using "cut" - or more generally to map from "files" to "fields/lines in a text stream".

I'm more inclined to ask:

given a list of files with this name, does a file of a different name exist on the file system?

But the more Unix approach is really:

how can I model my data as a text stream, and how can I then pose/answer my question?

(here: list all filenames in folder in sorted order - cut away the text indicating type - then count/display the non-repeat/single entries)

My solution would probably be more like (with bash in mind, most of this could be "expanded" to fork out to more utils, like "basename -s" etc) :

for data_file in *_data.csv
do;
alg_file="${data_file%_data.csv}_A.csv";
if [[ ! -f "${alg_file}" ]];
then
echo "Missing alg file:\
${alg_file} for data \
file: ${data_file}";
fi;
done

Ed: this is essentially the same solution as:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19161358

Although more verbose. I think I prefer omitting the explicit if, though - and just using "test" and "or" ("[[", "||" ).
I didn't bring it up, the comment you responded to did. You said that it didn't get rid of it, but it does. It gets rid of the entire DTCC company, and all of the salaries that go along with that. All of those costs go to zero.
I don't. I have this link that lists a bunch of providers and their prices and I don't see anyone going over $100 per 3ml cartridge: https://www.goodrx.com/humalog?dosage=3ml-of-100-units-ml&fo...

Of course, there might be a more expensive provider that I don't know of.

I don't think that those people are making up reasons to go on 5 hour drives, but I do think it's quite likely that journalists fudged the numbers or just found some theoretical maximums and approximated the price from there. Just so it's a juicier story, of course.
I can't help but feel like these sorts of stories need to be reoriented as "Federal Government Fails to Tax Amazon on $11.2B Profits". If the law continues to enable it, companies will avoid taxation to the greatest possible extent in the name of duty to shareholders.
You can go into your settings and enable "showdead" to at least see if something was indeed marked for review.
Amazon is already in New York and their own statement today says they will continue expanding those teams despite not moving forward with HQ2. No discount, still business.
"There are currently over 5,000 Amazon employees in Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Staten Island, and we plan to continue growing these teams."
That comment is not very constructive for discussion and against the guidelines, just like the replies. Downvoting is not censorship.

I completely agree re: non-fiction. This is why I started creating 15 minute shorts that summarise the key concepts for busy, time-conscious readers for less.

https://www.booktherapy.io/collections/15-minute-shorts

I also think there is a lot of therapeutic power embedded in literature (fiction and nonfiction) and I've created some 15 minute literary guides too for lots of different issues and interests: https://www.booktherapy.io/collections/literary-guides
That rule only seems to apply to devices the player controls themselves, so if the tournament had a recording device or if both players jointly sponsored a recording device it doesn't appear it would trigger that rule.

I'd also imagine that this rule's enforcement would be relaxed when, for instance, a player sets up a phone to record the game and has no access to that phone during the game, since any information the phone is recording (and any resulting processing for cheating) would be inaccessible to the user during the game.
> As someone who doesn't use Facebook, Twitter

You do use them, even if you didn't sign up or agree to it, you do use their services. Your contact info is already there and every chance FB or whoever gets to learn something new about you, they take it. Most accurately, they are using you, but you're also using their services indirectly by being a part of society at all. Many of these companies are major news publishers/platforms, etc. The news your friends read and talk to you about is filtered by some of these companies, some of the time.

You're a part of this too.

> the debate is kinda laughable

It's very dangerous to laugh off a major societal debate merely because you consider yourself outside of it. This is the entire crux of the "first they came..." poem. [1]

> from the outside.

You are not on the outside.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
> In what ways do you prefer the experience of teaching or learning about computers on the internet of today to the internet of 1992?

Personally, I value the ability to watch videos of conference talks while I'm doing dishes or similar, which wasn't nearly so available in 1992 (principally for bandwidth reasons).

IPFS isn't a blockchain just like git isn't a blockchain. "Blockchain" has semantic meaning that "a chain of blocks" does not.
I think the point here is that your prof was criticising you rather than your output. That’s why it’s brutal, because it’s personal. He’s being honest about his feelings but it’s not very helpful to you. So I don’t think it’s fair.
I share your frustration. I've had it go both ways, never in my favor. A chain MRI imaging provider gave me 33% off for paying cash on the condition that I not file a claim or take advantage of it against my annual out of pocket. But while transitioning between insurance companies and lacking the new card two of two specialists I saw wanted cash in advance and charged me about three times more than they were getting from me+my insurer before and then after when I finally received the insurance card.

Total medical R&D spending in the US is a few hundred dollars per year per person, out of about $10,000 in total health care costs. That’s everything, not just private drug research. Research does not explain the huge discrepancy in costs.
It’s a direct statement from one person, not approximation. Either the journalist or the source has to be wrong for it to be incorrect. It’s possible but I’m assuming this is yet another example of the exhaustively documented broken economic model in American healthcare producing wide varaiation as everyone charges whatever they can get away with.
> I assume you still use YouTube

An aside, but funny enough, one thing I like about DDG is how much better it is at finding YouTube videos. I assume Google is encumbered by antitrust fears or something when it comes to video search.
The whole gambling industry is a really a utility black hole. Human risk-taking impulses evolved so that we could decide to look around that corner, explore that dense underbrush, see what happens if we rub some sticks together. Instead of directing those impulses toward making our lives better (eg. through scientific research, or making a better product more efficiently) people are having them exploited by the world’s most expensive video games.

Please, if you’re going to make bets, stick to those that might have a positive expected value!

Ok. Who out there truly knows how to improve your life exponentially - systematically and reproducibly?

AWK makes most of that grep/cut/count-type stuff so much easier, 1-liners need something like 3 parts instead of 10.

(My grep doesn't work like in the video, but..)

for f in *.rb;do awk '$1 ~ /class|module/ {print $2}' $f;done |
awk '{a[$1]++} END{for (q in a) print a[q],q}' | sort -n

This seems to do what all the sed, cut, regrepping, wc etc do. AWK (in default mode, anyway) removes leading spaces, makes cutting and counting words easy. It took about 30 seconds to write, too.
You don't want it to add value to your house because then you will end up paying higher property taxes on a higher appraised value. The benefit of solar can be stated to a prospective buyer as X dollars less on utility bills each year.
It won't help once you realize the people don't care and you can't make them care. It's not ignorance that's the problem either, it's intentional apathy. Until you can show a regular person how they are literally (i.e. not in some made-up tech way) harmed, they aren't going to concern themselves with it and rightfully so. If you make up harms or posit unproven or inapplicable-to-most harms, you will actually hurt your case by crying wolf instead of help it.
Aren't these competitions _literally_ open to everyone?

+100 for this. Our kids just don't. Maybe 5 min, and then "mom! dad!". And we drop everything and go relieve them of their duty to entertain themselves. I feel like this is a failing on our part as parents. And it makes everything worse for everyone.

I'm curious if you have any practical measures you've followed to get past this.
Electron apps are also horrible on the Mac (and probably everywhere else too). Buggy, bloated resource hogs with nonstandard and limited UI and incredibly high input latency for simple actions.

As a Mac user, when I hear “Electron app” I think “company that was too lazy/cheap to make a real Mac app.”
I see it more like walking away knowing that I have checkmate whether the other person can see it or not. If you pay attention to the conditions that must necessarily exist, like the that the difference between two whole squares can be represented as EITHER an integer base taken to a power higher than two, or the sum of a series of consecutive odd numbers, the number of terms equaling the original base number of the higher power equation.

PowerShell sort of cheats, which enables the nice object pipelines; all cmdlets are .net modules that are run within the same runtime. That makes PowerShell much closer to "normal" programming languages with repls than traditional shells. That is also why PowerShell model is not directly a good fit to the UNIX world.

I would like to see more work done in the realm of object shells (and have some ideas myself), especially around designs that meld in more the UNIXy way of having independent communicating processes. But it is a difficult problem domain, and many approaches would involve rewriting lot of the base system we take for granted that is just huge amount of work.

PowerShell had the benefit of having stuff like WMI, COM, the whole .NET, and of course all the resources, funding and marketing from MS. Even then it has seemed to have been an uphill struggle, despite there being far more a need for PS in the Windows world.
I would love for someone to share an example of a good software patent. I have yet to encounter one. The only things I have encountered that match my idea of a patentable idea are algorithms, which are not patentable. I have yet to encounter something where there was value in the idea and not all the value in creating a robust, usable, production ready version of it.

Forget the future, some people seem to be making that mistake with an opposing government right now. How many people do you see on the 'left' of the political spectrum wanting the government to regulate 'fake news' or 'social media' or 'the internet' while forgetting that it's Donald Trump and co in power right now?

You already see full well how much the government disagrees with its critics on what's considered fake news or not. Don't they realise it'd probably be pro Breitbart/pro Infowars regulation there, with the main targets being those outlets they support?

Same goes for this social media regulation stuff. You won't get a crackdown on 'Russian propaganda', since the elected government over in the US does't believe it is an issue at all.

Government agencies don't stay very independent either, and even if they do, you have no guarantee they'll do what you think is right at all. See net neutrality and Ajit Pai.

So yeah, their party won't always be in control and in a lot of cases, their party isn't in control right now anyway.

If that'd be the case then any country with a single-payer healthcare system would suffer from similarly inflated drug prices as the US, but that's simply not the case [0].

What's stopping US insurers from pressuring drug companies into price agreements? Shouldn't that be also in their best interest, instead of just passing the costs along to the patients? If that's all they are doing, what do you actually need them for?

In Germany, price agreements between drug manufacturers and insurers happen plenty of times, and it usually works out because drug companies take reduced profits over no profits, any time of the day. Patients still have the option to buy the "fancy version", paying out of their own pocket, but the vast majority of patients are completely fine with whatever their insurance covers.

i have had several insurances and switched between sometimes having to pay upfront cost, for a 10/ml vial it is around 230. I know, for example, I need around 9 vials per 3 months. pretty expensive stuff.

*edit, as I am on an insulin pump I only take fast-acting insulins. Lantus/Levemir other longer acting insulins usually are more expensive than the fast-acting stuff.
Not sure yet where costs and fees settle out. Generally, in US system you shouldn't expect that fee awards would shift the incentive structure.

The article isn't about creating a burnout culture, or forcing people to work long hours.
