As noted below, Scott Manley does a much better job covering it. YouTube is a much more efficient tool for connecting the knowledgeable and passionate with the interested learner. If anything the "imprimatur" granted by legacy media brand names gets in the way on topics where the public is generally badly informed, or where there is a lot of false knowledge floating around the culture.

The downside, is that knowledge has to compete with falsehood, so the complete elimination of falsehood is problematic, and it may take some time for the real knowledge to rise. I think it's better overall, more democratic and pro-freedom, if people participate by making their own choices to find the truth.

This is the turning point where tech has become a munition again. Rather than export controls, it's business blacklists.

It's a weird switch. Before we would sell billions in arms around the world with little risk of it being used against us. But digital munitions can be used against anyone, anywhere, any time. The USG will have to tightly control all tech used in the country to prevent cyber weaponry being used against us.

Your site is cancer. The “chat with an expert” thing that no one could ever possibly want to do covers the whole screen. Tapping the X to close out of it just expands it as if you wanted to chat with an expert, because the hit box for the X is smaller than the X. Tapping the next X to close out of the full page “chat with an expert” overlay lags for 3 seconds so you tap it again thinking you must have missed it the first time. Once the lag stops, the second tap still goes through and slides the entire page to the left to expand the hamburger menu. Fifteen seconds on your site felt like being in hell and now I’m afraid to tap anything. I predict your business will fail.

I work for a "flat" company. I've certainly observed some of the troubling characteristics of this organizational approach described above and elsewhere in comments.

There are some positive characteristics [in our implementation at least] as well, a few of which are :

1) Decisions with broad effect [i.e., beyond the decider's personal work domain] are handled with the "advice process," wherein all affected parties are consulted and their advice weighed before the decision is taken. This can be cumbersome, but on the other hand, it is a check against "cowboy" and "act first, consider later" types.

2) Each person is assigned an "area of responsibility / AOR" -- a work or problem domain[s] in which they are acknowledged to hold more expertise than those not assigned that 'AOR.' This prevents [in practice] people [say] in the shipping department making decisions about software development.

3] The org is not _totally_ flat. The CEO and COO are acknowledged to have veto power and the 'AOR' of big decisions that have a potentially existential bearing on the company.

Having always worked at rigidly hierarchical companies before this, I'll say I've more or less gotten used to it and can see the benefits.

One thing I especially like about it is that there is no chance of an "Office Space" situation where a boss, or bosses, continually interrupt work to pester about things that are wastes of time -- each worker is more or less left to determine their own task prioritization and has the power to discontinue tasks that are pointless. We use the kanban system for task / bug / feature tracking.

if the USA is so free, how come its Communist Party is outlawed?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist_Control_Act_of_1954

>The Communist Control Act (68 Stat. 775, 50 U.S.C. 841-844) is a piece of United States federal legislation, signed into law by President Dwight Eisenhower on 24 August 1954, which outlaws the Communist Party of the United States and criminalizes membership in, or support for the Party or "Communist-action" organizations and defines evidence to be considered by a jury in determining participation in the activities, planning, actions, objectives, or purposes of such organizations.[1]

How come all the communists were purged from e.g. Hollywood, including the writer of Kirk Douglas' "Spartacus"?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McCarthyism

> During the McCarthy era, hundreds of Americans were accused of being Communists or Communist sympathizers; they became the subject of aggressive investigations and questioning before government or private industry panels, committees, and agencies. The primary targets of such suspicions were government employees, those in the entertainment industry, academicians, and labor-union activists. Suspicions were often given credence despite inconclusive or questionable evidence, and the level of threat posed by a person's real or supposed leftist associations or beliefs were sometimes exaggerated. Many people suffered loss of employment or destruction of their careers; some were imprisoned. Most of these punishments came about through trial verdicts that were later overturned,[3] laws that were later declared unconstitutional,[4] dismissals for reasons later declared illegal[5] or actionable,[6] or extra-legal procedures, such as informal blacklists, that would come into general disrepute.

The way $dayjob makes this work is to issue a nano security key for each computer, and then a bluetooth security key for the iPhone (Android phones can use both NFC and Bluetooth security keys, but iPhones can only use Bluetooth security keys).

It's cumbersome, but less so than when we were plugging and unplugging our one hardware USB-A OTP token into everything (and using a desktop web browser to generate OTPs for the phones).

If you do end up getting a security key, I recommend getting at least two. If one fails, you'll want the other one as a backup so that you can get back into your accounts.
What’s the meaning of “phase” as used in this article, as in a “three phases per circuit”?
I have done this as well, it definitely helps you sleep better. It also prevents work from intruding on personal time, as long as you're not on call--just leave the work device at home.

It's also worthwhile to set up a separate home LAN for work stuff. This not only protects you, but it also ensures that work data is kept away from roommates, guests, etc. Prosumer-level routers and access points like Ubiquiti can broadcast multiple SSIDs and tag traffic on each with a different VLAN. Not at all hard to set up and definitely worth the peace of mind.

The British ambassador to China at the time, Sir Alan Donald, claimed that citizens were mowed down repeatedly by Chinese army tanks, turned to mush, and their remains were scooped, burned, and washed away.[1] There also exist individuals who claim to have narrowly survived the tanks in Tiananmen Square but had limbs crushed and amputated. They have been pressured by the Chinese government to change their story.[2]

It seems there's an ideology here (in the Gary Bernhardt sense: https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/ideology), that flat organizations are impossible. Not just bad or inefficient, but literally cannot possibly happen, that it will always and forever immediately decay into a shadow oligarchy (which to be fair can happen).

Is it really that hard to take these people at their word, along with other companies without a stated strict and rigid hierarchy? Little wonder such organizations are hard to build, especially in a culture that holds the very notion in contempt.

> We are talking about what the user/application sees and is capable of accessing.

But how is that different than a filesystem?

Suppose we add application-based ACLs to file permissions. Then the app does open("/path/to/file", O_RDONLY) as ever. If the app has permission to the file, it gets the new fd. If it doesn't, it gets EACCES as usual. Or the OS displays a dialog asking whether the app should have permanent or one-time access to that file, and then the call doesn't return until the user chooses one.

I don't see a fundamental change here. The application wouldn't necessarily even have to be modified.

Restaurant management, along with freemium services on the site, was where I was hoping to make money eventually. Sadly, as you and others have pointed out, restaurants live on the breadline, so I think I picked a bad market!

In terms of SEO, think I posted the easy wins I did on another comment. "newtown" was just an example of a made up place for illustration purposes in the original post. That's cool that I'm in position 16 for Rathmines, I was down in the 50s last time I checked (Rathmines is a cool area with plenty of restaurants).
Because that's just what every user wants -- for all the performance gains of their new, fast hardware to be soaked up by OS administrivia they didn't even realize they needed.

Not if you pair it with eye tracking, like they're suggesting. It might actually be significantly better than a mouse in that scenario; though I'd have to try it myself to know for sure.
Don't ask me. It is in the enrollment standard.

I strongly believe all this software only enlarges the potential attack surface.

Not sure if this "zoo" of software is more of a security theater and a legal protection to be able to tell everybody "we did all we could possibly do" in case of an attack/hack/what not.

But even if I strongly suspect my device was more secure before, I know, that lot's of less tech-savvy people will have at least some standard (encrypted SDD, and such) enforced. So I am not yet decided if in the end the net benefit is positive.
The data center I work in has 415 VAC power coming in to each rack, with three phases and a neutral. Equipment gets a phase and a neutral, for 240 VAC (though not in a configuration you’d normally expect).

It’s important to remember that everything is contained in equipment made by companies that I trust (Rittal and Eaton and APC). Also, everything is grounded (the doors to the racks, the racks to the cable ladder, and the cable ladder to a special ground), which is in addition to the equipment ground. Finally, I know (and work with) the people who build and maintain the infrastructure.

As for the thick cable, if you’re up to it, here’s a video showing a process for joining the cables together: https://youtu.be/EvWx-VKVvmo

The thing to note, is the layers of copper ground that are wrapped around each conductor line, as well as the bundle itself.

In the specific case of html and css I agree that it rarely works. There are a few examples like subreddit css, but in general html does to much layout to meaningfully separate content from layout. Xml and XSLT is a much better separation, with Xml containing pure content and Xslt transforming that into XHTML with CSS for presentation. But that never got much adoption.

In other domains separating content from presentation works well. But in web development the incentives don't align with that idea.

> than in the U.S. (with 1.35% of the black population imprisoned)

Interesting. My first thought was that your number was too low, but searching a little it seems you are right, with a couple caveats. The first caveat is that the number for black males is about twice that of the black population as a whole (ie, black females are rarely imprisoned).

The second caveat, which is not one I've seen widely reported, is that the percentage of black males currently imprisoned has dropped sharply over recent years, from 3.5% in 2000 to 2.6% now. This article (with the charts from which I got the numbers) goes into possible reasons: https://www.themarshallproject.org/2017/12/15/a-mass-incarce...

This is true, and it is dangerous (once the key fails, folks get locked out). I don't use security keys with such providers.

It would be nice if someone made a library that made incorporating Webauthn login into an app as simple as using django or Ruby on Rails or React to create a login form, so folks don't end up rolling their own and assuming that a user will have at most one yubikey.

Failing that, you could do what Zeit does and rely on email providers' support for Security Keys (login by email link only).

The concept of IP rights doesn't really exist in Chinese business culture. Your source code or any other proprietary technology is fair game.

I know startup founders that have raised Chinese money and not regretted it, but it's important that it be "dumb money", i.e. they give you cash and go away while you write an occasional investor update and grow the business. Active Chinese investors (i.e. anything where you give up board seats, decision-making power, strategic partnerships, etc.) are bad news. You want to be in a position where if your investors ask you for something you can just ignore them.

Dolphins do communicate with each other, they use vocal communication and body language. Our failure to understand it doesn't invalidate its existence.

They form lifelong familial bonds. They have friends and enemies and form complex social structures.

They play regularly and have advanced hunting tactics that require a high degree of coordination.

They even take recreational drugs.

Combining an engine to interpret voice commands with textual keyboard input seems like the best approach here. You get all the useful fuzziness of voice with none of the transcription errors (or revolting workplace noise pollution).

I'm fairly well sold on some sort of "omnibar" interface concept where you just tell the computer what you want with a keyboard. Alfred, Spotlight, Google search, Wolfram Alpha, iCal's smart add (you can just type "2pm next Friday"), the Action palette in IntelliJ, VS Code and Sublime's command palette, and so on. That, just... everywhere. And if you're alone, sure, use voice instead. Just don't deprecate the keyboard: still the most reliable way to get accurate text into a computer.

I feel like the best desktop interface I have used is Ubuntu's workspace implementation. Typically you have one app, e.g. your browser, per workspace and seamlessly transition between them using ctrl + alt + arrows. The animation is very snappy and doesn't get in your way.

The workspaces are laid out in a grid (e.g. 4x4) so you naturally adopt a convention for where you place applications. For me, I have browsers and desktop apps along the bottom, terminals and IDEs along 2nd row and then GVim instances in the remaining top two rows. I can almost instantaneously switch between any window I like.

I like this setup so much that when I was using MacOS for a brief period, I installed TotalSpaces2 which emulates Ubuntu style workspaces.
