Fax machine -> fax machine : secure

Securing document exchange by email is a PITA for 99.9% users. Explain to your mother how to use PGP/GPG to encrypt the email she have to send to financial institutions, government, ... And imagine the government employee receiving the encrypted email. He will probably just delete it. :)
Maybe porn isn't the cause at all, maybe its the fact that the #metoo man hating feminazis have emasculated a large percentage of young men to the point they are subconsiously afraid to preform sexually due to the social and financial concequences of impregnating single women, how many of these young men were raised by single mothers? Beyond that there is also a new breed of young females who wish to dominate said young males in the bedroom which is probably a turn off to most young men, and finally is it possible that the actual appearance of the "Viagra" type drugs may be affecting the number of people needing it? Eg. There were a lot less Crack addicts before it was invented.
I don’t know. I’ve lived what the article describes and there’s truth there.

OTOH not everyone is required to actually manifest all their dreams. Maybe it’s more fun and satisfying to tinker endlessly without actually starting a real business.

Yes, it’s a problem that people live in the future. But also not everyone is cut out to follow through on what they imagine.

For me, 99% of what I imagine is just an excuse to tinker, but I’ve followed through on a tiny subset of things and that was great too. I like knowing I actually “did it.” I like pointing to the accomplishment.

But there’s definitely a joy and peace in daydreaming and endlessly tinkering without ruining everything by setting yourself up to argue with manufacturers, look for funding, manage employees, live out of a tour bus, or any of the other practical realities that go along with pursuing your dreams in a professional capacity.

Has anyone gotten proper scaling working?
No copy-paste is a non-starter for me as well, and probably the largest single reason why I still am on i3-gaps. I still like wallpaper mostly because it's nice to add some light transparency to console windows. I3-gaps, for me, was initially because I had a very, very old computer only. This thing had been retired by a corporation three years prior; ancient i3 CPU. With i3-gaps, it ran nice and snappy; on Windows 10, it largely choked. I've appreciated it ever since.

One of the biggest draws is keyboard-friendliness: you don't have to use a mouse to navigate, ever. Nice for those of us who already prefer programs like vim that allow keyboard usage, and can increase productivity. It's also good for multi-window setups (having more than one open), though some people who use tons of windows use bspwm (represents windows with a binary tree).
Funny, I feel the same way about overlapping WMs. I think it comes down to how different people perceive space. Vive la difference!
Not having to download i3-gaps or feh in exchange for copy/paste and hdpi scaling not working seems like a questionable tradeoff. I'm not sure what 'better multi-window' support means? I've never had issues with i3 windows. Speed has also been non-noticeable.

So it seems like the feature list is 'better gesture support' in exchange for a lot of downsides?

I am not trying to be dismissive, but I see so many people evangelizing it over i3, I feel like I have to be missing something. I can't believe there's a single person who finds those tradeoffs acceptable outside of those who want it to be good eventually and are working towards that.
DeepCamera: Better open source DeepLens working on $35 device
DeepLens is developed by amazon on x86 system, deep camera project did better, it's working on ARM embedding system, model optimized running on GPU.
It deployed state-of-the-art face recognition, plugin and play on your existing CCTV security camera system, support linux/android system, with easy debugging/developing docker image on your x86 system.

The purpose is making humans superflous, stripping them of all meaningful agency. Yes, it's not "rational" in that it requires active sickness on part of some, and at least lack of spine in others - it is at home in the realm of psychopathology and diseases rather than the realm of ideas or undertakings - but that doesn't mean it's all just random, either.

> While the separation of inmates into categories was merely a tactical-organisatory measure for the the purpose of administration of the camps, the arbitrariness of committal demonstrates the essential principle of the institution as such. The existance of a political opposition is just a pretext for the concentration camp system, and its purpose is not achieved when the population more or less voluntarily conforms as consequence of the most monstrous deterrence, that is, to give up its political rights. The arbitrariness has the purpose to deprive those under the totalitarian regime of all their rights as citizens, which finally become as outlawed [vogelfrei] in their own country as otherwise only the stateless and homeless. The deprivation of humans of their rights, the killing of the juridical person in them is just a precondition of their being totally controlled, for which even voluntary agreement is a hindrance [0]. And this is not just the case for special categories of criminals, political enemies, Jews, on which it was tested first, but for every citizen of a totalitarian country.

> [0] [Related to that is the fact that all propaganda and ["Weltanschauungslehre"] was expressly forbidden in the camps. (also see Himmler, "Wesen und Aufgabe der SS und der Polizei"). And together with this in turn it has to be considered that that teaching and propaganda was also not allowed for the guarding elite formations; their Weltanschauung was not to be "teached", but "exercized" (see Robert Ley)]

And hey, everybody in a (totalitarian) hierarchy is on a power trip. Even shining boots at low ranks with no intent to rise is still more being part of that power trip than not. I think being powerful (in the alienated, destructive sense of the word) and "just following orders" (or "just doing business") are all great ways for people to avoid actually living and facing themselves, they're different sides of the same coin.
Like I said, mistakes happen. Investors in the valley are willing to take larger risks, and by virtue of there being more money, there will be more mistakes. There are mistakes in Boston too. I don’t know the statistics, but I would bet it’s proportional, though perhaps not because the risk appetite is lower.
I have a friend who works in an Amazon warehouse and asked him about it:

"It's fine. Pay is decent. I get to do a lot of walking, which is nice. I'll probably look for something more long term."

I asked him about all of the horror stories and stress I've read about:

"You work in an office. Are you saying there isn't any stress or bad bosses or horror stories?"

Point taken. They have 200,000 warehouse employees. On average, the experience will be 'meh'. Just like most jobs.

But I am more troubled about how this article conflates stress and mental health, and the thin insinuation that contemplating suicide is a normal response to a bad workplace. As if one can be a workplace upgrade or job transfer away from eliminating pain. Or that people in good jobs don't deserve to feel bad.

$5000 a month could be a single employee's wage. Just pretend you have a new hire named "Heroku" who is generating immense value for you. If you are a one or two man shop, sure...but if you find yourself spending inordinate amounts of man hours toying with infrastructure, I think you'd need to ask what you are really saving.
TLS: 64bit-Ish Serial Numbers and Mass Revocation
I feel so old. Thirty years? I was working in my office (actual _office with a door_, not a cube) at Prime Computer when people began wandering the halls, asking, "What happened to the Internet?"

In my personal experience, no.

My testosterone level is currently lower than even most women, and I can still get an erection.
Offer HN: I can help you with your rails sideproject for mentoring
Hi HN,

I am a business student based in Warsaw, Poland. I have 1,5 years of commercial experience with Ruby on Rails working at a software house. I am not looking for a normal job right now because I am trying to focus on my studies and don't want to work full time. I can offer 20 hours per week in exchange for mentoring.

I want you to be an experienced programmer, that can help to teach me more about writing clean code. I want to focus on projects with real business value. I need to be able to show the code I would contribute to companies I recruit to in the future.

You can contact me at hnqnsi (at) gmail.com or write in this thread

My question is:

If drugs "remove the long standing subconscious filters and biases that one has built over their life," what replaces them? Does one simply continue living into posterity without filters? I argue not, and in fact that, over time, the filters tend to come back without repeated exposure to drugs and drug-thought, and one is given a choice: return slightly-modified to regular life, or commit to taking drugs regularly, whereby one absorbs new filters/biases that change one's relationship with the world and are almost equally limiting. These "drug" filters/biases may generate beliefs such as the following: reality lurks behind what you see; we are all deluded; society is a myth; money is a myth; we are all one; we are being tricked into believing in this reality and, therefore, someone is tricking us (paranoia); etc.

While I agree that psychedelics do offer the important function of removing the filters/biases, I caution against presenting them as a uniformly positive method of doing so. I think they replace those filters with ones of their own making, and while thus leading to a different schema than sober exposure to regular life, they do not necessarily lead to a "better" one.
PornHub's statistics [1] don't really indicate that violent excess is all that popular. Now lesbians, hentai and milfs are unlikely to feature in the average male's sex life, and maybe that leads to unrealistic expectations, but it's still far from violent.

Well, the answer more like "it depends on what you want, exactly".

In the specific example of btrfs there is an extra layer of indirection just like there is with ZFS. Filesystems live inside pools of devices, and when one is shrunk that leaves room for another one to grow. You wouldn't want to resize the physical volume or partition unless the device is shared with other types of filesystems.

(This is why ZFS and btrfs sometimes are referred to as "layering violations". Other filesystems expect the logical volume manager to pool devices into logical block devices.)

So resizing an btrfs filesystem absolutely makes sense even in isolation.

You're right. I was sticking with the numbers The Daily Beast included as an attempt at a comparison. I also challenged the numbers by stating the "1.4M" number appears to be only attempts; a narrower definition vs. the "calls about emotional distress or suicidal thoughts" referenced, re: Amazon. Do statistics exist which translate these 189 calls into a number of actual suicide attempts? Hopefully the answer is "0".

The follow-up questions you offer are equally interesting, thank you.
Google cloud DNS console outage, status page reports all good
Twofold: for many, it just looks nice. But for me, having a little margin in between things helps me visually distinguish and makes it easier to look quickly at different windows. This is actually helped with a wallpaper, because it further accentuates the borders of windows. I guess a magenta outline on every window would technically serve the same purpose (the sort of thing you might see on a high-contrast UI), but it's a little less gaudy and a little more visually appealing this way.
You dont get what I said. I said, despite the effects on health. I am not arguing that smoking is not unhealthy. Its not an either or question between public health issue and moral question. Smoking is bad for you. It will likely kill you. And so are heroin crack and fast food. If it was only a matter of public health all would be banned. They are all unhealthy and cost the healthcare system massively. The decision that we still tolerate some and dont tolerate others is a moralistic one.

Unfortunately, since June 2018, we have witnessed significant intermingling of proprietary code into the code base. While an Apache 2.0 licensed download is still available, there is an extreme lack of clarity as to what customers who care about open source are getting and what they can depend on. For example, neither release notes nor documentation make it clear what is open source and what is proprietary. Enterprise developers may inadvertently apply a fix or enhancement to the proprietary source code. This is hard to track and govern, could lead to breach of license, and could lead to immediate termination of rights (for both proprietary free and paid). Individual code commits also increasingly contain both open source and proprietary code, making it very difficult for developers who want to only work on open source to contribute and participate. In addition, the innovation focus has shifted from furthering the open source distribution to making the proprietary distribution popular. This means that the majority of new Elasticsearch users are now, in fact, running proprietary software. We have discussed our concerns with Elastic, the maintainers of Elasticsearch, including offering to dedicate significant resources to help support a community-driven, non-intermingled version of Elasticsearch. They have made it clear that they intend to continue on their current path.

Cryptographic coin flipping, now in Keybase
The reason these languages are still popular is because they're still the fastest and consume less memory.

A better question is why doesn't x86_64 have hardware bounds checking by now? We can already fault at the page boundary, it seems like a minor improvement to have an instruction for malloc/sbrk to create new dynamically sized pages that fault the same way.

Doing so would also be backwards compatible with all the existing software that relies on malloc.

It’s a case of nvidia refusing to support Linux properly, rather than the other way around - nvidia have been attempting to force their own APIs on Linux graphics developers rather than fit in with what everyone else (Intel, AMD, and all ARM GPU developers) have been doing.

The result is that anyone doing low-level graphics on Linux would have to support two entirely separate, very complex APIs - one for everyone but nvidia, and then one for the proprietary nvidia drivers. Unsurprisingly, not many people are up for that.

Realistically, nvidia just don’t care about Linux outside of very specific use cases where they’re working with the system integrators directly, the same as Broadcom and a few others. If you’re building a Linux system without their support, you’d be well advised to stick with GPU developers that actually work with Linux developers.
> "Should we spend the first 36.8% of our adult lives dating casually, and then settle down with the first person we find who’s better than anyone we’ve dated so far? That would suggest men start seriously looking for a life partner at 39 — and women at 41."

The problem suggest anything like that. It suggest you should spend 36.8% of dating time (or date count) on exploring, not 36.8% of your life...

Second problem with the blog, that it just produces lot of possible issues, but does not show any example where 36.8 algorithm would fail horribly. Maybe those drawbacks does not matter in practice.

You seem to be equating “high risk” with bullshit. That’s not the case - the appetite for risk is higher here, that’s true. But it’s not like companies can just stand up and have money thrown at them; due diligence is real, though mistakes do happen.
They were able to attract talent and PR in the name of altruism and here they are now trying to flip the switch as quietly as possible. If the partner gets a vote/profit then a "charter" or "mission" won't change anything. You will never be able to explicitly prove that a vote had a "for profit" motive.

Elon was irritated that he was behind in the AI intellectual property race and this narrative created a perfect opportunity. Not surprised in the end.

There is so much shit (literally) in our water and food supply. But also birth control, opioids, microplastics, you-name-it. Seattle mussels test positive for opioids(1). Chemicals leech from plastics. America has mass-scale addiction to prescription drugs. Pollution is everywhere the world. Neurotoxins are household gardening or anti-pest remedies.

Livestock have also shifted from grazing to eating soy- or corn-based products. Fish are more-likely to be farmed.

Nobody knows what the true long-term consequences of this are.

I think people would also be surprised to see what happens on farms. Seeing chickens and pigs eat mice and rats while knowing how much garbage and neurotoxins are laid out for those pests--they end up inside humans.

So, intel took over qlogic, now fabless(!) nvidia takes over mellanox /o\. Is there some real "normal" manufacturer of fast cards like IB, 40+geth left? By normal I mean manufacturer without management doing stunt tricks and pissing off own customers (like intel and nvidia does).

I don't plan to start working as a Therapist in the near future, but the training itself has been life changing and would highly suggest to anyone who's curious about self development.

I can assure you (within the k8s dev community anyway) that "distro" is used to refer to companies productised versions.

Look at any of the long term support discussions, and distros will be mentioned.

Same goes for OpenStack - we refer to the different vendor products as distros (this is complicated by most of the OpenStack in a box products being produced by Linux distros, but we mean all product versions of OpenStack when we was OpenStack distro)
FAA certainly can do so. Either by decertifying a pane, or issuing various air worthiness directives or other instructions.
