I already use Thunderbird with the ProtonMail bridge and ProtonVPN on my phone and computers (combined with my self rolled VPNs).

I would welcome FireFox into the mix, they'd do quite well together -- plus maybe they can make the bridge unnecessary (which IMO is the most annoying part of ProtonMail).

The economic failings of these Boomer towns reminds me of this article in Citylab, about how cities pay for current infrastructure by selling more land for development. It's an unsustainable pyramid scheme.

https://www.citylab.com/life/2011/10/suburban-sprawl-ponzi-s...

Overall, these articles are an interesting insight into the hidden financials of urban development. And, sadly, the failings of those financial schemes.

You don't lose anything by strictly enforcing the encapsulation because you can always explicitly provide low level methods into the data structures.

But then you're not really gaining anything either, unless perhaps you have some mechanism to enforce that the low-level access should only be used in specific circumstances when it is deliberately intended. It's like writing classes that have a few data members, but then writing direct get and set accessors for each of them anyway. There's no more complicated invariant that you're enforcing at that point, and without any non-trivial invariants to be enforced, the whole argument for encapsulation and data hiding becomes moot.

Conversely, you lose all safety when you open up encapsulation. The method API of an object is the contract it provides.

Do you always need that safety, though? If your data is defined to be stored in a certain representation, and direct access to that underlying representation in that format is available if needed, isn't that representation now just another part of the contract? Again, you're balancing two competing priorities: is there some invariant to be enforced that is sufficiently complicated for data hiding to be a useful safeguard, and is it useful to interact efficiently with, or make safe assumptions about performance based on, the true data representation?

Which one is the more important consideration must surely depend on how complicated your representation and any related invariants are. Being able to pattern match against values of some relatively simple algebraic data type can be very useful, for example. On the other hand, it's not much fun to accidentally corrupt the super-efficient look-up structure at the heart of your whole system that now uses a complicated set of hash tables and the odd Bloom filter internally after someone spent three weeks optimising it for a 50% speed boost.

Point is: the trope of “nobody can live in the Bay Area on 125k net” is total bullshit, tired, and flat-out untrue. Is it harder than living on 125k elsewhere? Absolutely. Are you “poor” and unable to afford a great house? No, not at all.

There are plenty of great places.
Reputable or not, Nordvpn has been beta-testing it for a fair while (I emailed support and got a list of a few peers). It's been working well for me.
Yeah, there are lots of basic, good quality bikes in the $400-500 range. People just need to go to a real bike shop or a place like REI with a good bike department and helpful staff. It is true that once you drop to the $200-300 range, there is a lot of junk to avoid.

My current bike is 10 years old. I bought a $500 hard-tail Marin mountain bike to use for commuting, expecting that it would be able to take some abuse. My wife has a similar vintage bike from the REI house brand at the time (Novara) and it seems of similar quality. I am pretty sure both have Giant frames under their paint. These aluminum frames and disc brakes are a revelation compared to my previous long-term bike which was a lugged-steel Bridgestone with cantilever and cam rim brakes.

I have been almost negligent with maintenance, mainly just oiling the chain and replacing tires and tubes. I don't miss re-packing the bearings and freewheel like my old bike. I am not sure how much that is due to modern tech versus changes in my riding habits. I haven't left the asphalt with the current bike.

I did have to have a wheel re-spoked once after I pounded it in a deep pot-hole with narrow street tires mounted. My Shimano trigger shifters are near the point of needing some kind of major tune-up. I think I would have preferred to keep the simpler indexed levers from the 1990s, as they required a little more operator skill but were less finicky.
It also blocks all notifications making it not a suitable way to do this.
I dual boot Linux and Windows 10 on my personal Lenovo X1 and my Linux setup definitely has its moments with multiple displays... It mostly works until it does not then it's a headache.

Power management seems OK but I dunno how that relates to the fan controller because in Linux my laptop sounds like a jet engine 90% of the time while in Windows it rarely spins up.

Nope, it's just the random dupe that ended up getting the upvotes for whatever reasons. This happens constantly and the one that gets the upvotes has more to do with chance than any other factor.
A valid warning, indeed!

I will admit that my drill has had the grounding pin cut out of it's once-3-pronged plug.

Apparently it was common for contractors to cut it out as many of the houses they were working in didn't have grounding sockets.

I've only used it a couple of times, after checking it over mechanically inside, so I'm not too worried about it.

The beautiful thing about old power tools however is that replacing the power cord is as easy removing 4 easily accessed screws in the outer cover, removing the cover, then removing 3 further easily accessed screws that connect the plug to the electrical system of the drill.

Which as you remind us, I should probably do sooner than later.

Thanks for the story, and thankfully you still have an arm to type with!
There can always be a private loan market for student loans. Government guaranteed student loans basically happen out of goodwill. The assumption is that it will be a net benefit and therefore everyone should be given the opportunity. However this didn't turn out to be true. If the government keeps funding loans that will never be paid back then it won't be able to fund the loans that can be paid back. I don't really see why limiting certain degrees is seen as pure evil. In Germany some university degrees only accept a limited amount of participants. People with higher grades will be prioritized. This restriction however doesn't apply to the STEM degrees (not an exhaustive list) because they never get enough students. Therefore even if someone is poor and suffers from low intelligence, they are not barred from a degree that leads to a prosperous career.

This wasn’t really a consult. This was the admitting doc at the hospital overriding a doc who wanted to admit.

He made a decision, contrary to the examining doc’s opinion, that was final and without some crazy new information, asinine.

Normally code mode is entirely unusable for text on mobile phones, as it prevents wrapping beyond the phone truncation point at somewhere around 20-40 characters. Good idea using it for a list of headings and links here.
This isn't really feasible right now. Your bank, your doctor or a potential employer may all have different numbers each time they call you. Some critical calls may be unexpected and need the immediate attention a phone call gives (example: friend on somebody else's mobile)

There seems to be a presumption that "to avoid lawsuits" is a pure motivation. I don't think that it is.

Some of our laws actually come from just causes, such as protection patients from incompetence, malfeasance, etc. of their physicians, nurses, hospitalers, and insurance companies. A lawsuit is the necessary enforcement mechanism of such protections. Lawsuits can serve good purposes.

Probably not. Wireguard doesn’t aim for VPN DPI bypass. It might work for now just because it’s new but it’s not difficult to dpi.
whats missing here I think is the value of social consensus. None of these coins have any staying power without the social consensus that makes them the main chain. Its why there can't be clones with the same value popping up every day, there is clout that the dominant chains maintain

And it's not _just_ greed.

Is a person struggling to make rent in New York or San Francisco or Sydney being "greedy" when they demand more pay than workers with equivalent skills in rural China or Vietnam or Bangladesh or Rawanda?

Global economies mean that while some things stay rooted in local pricing (like the food and shelter at the top of Maslow's hierarchy), while other things can be _way_ more valuable if you stuff them in a shipping container and send them to the docks of Oakland or New Jersey...

If I can house and feed my family for $US10/month in Rawanda, and my neighbours can only afford to pay me 30c for my widgets, but they can sell for $100 in San Francisco, of _course_ I'll jam 100,000 of them into a container and pay $5,000 to send them there...

That'll keep working great for the Rwandan guy - up until his kids decide they want iPhones and cars and university degrees, and the costs of their expectations increase until they cannot afford a manufacturing-based economy to fund them either...
Run Windows then.

Apple has really messed up the computer industry by selling a computer to 5% of users but 95% of developers at funded companies.

If developers were synced up with users we'd see more native desktop apps. As it is, anyone who gets venture funding is making crappy electron apps and wondering why people are using phones instead.

Apple is laughing all the way to the bank.
It's usually not, but there's a certain logic to it: they valued your work high enough to pay you in SV, why would the same work be less valuable just because you moved offices?

Delivery services and trips are indulgence and minimizing effort. The only noticeable difference between the two is the reduced focus on ownership, but that’s more likely related to the fact that millennials got screwed by the Great Recession more than them being oh so woke.

It's pretty weird to see discord rooms being called "civilized".
Our typical policies would have to compare a column value to the local session variable where we stored client authentication context attributes. Sometimes this was an embedded column and sometimes we had to use a scalar subquery to cross-walk over to the stored data that acted as a row or row-class ACL.

Our service now renders its own joins and subqueries, merging the client-based constraints with other application filtering criteria. We are never using prepared statements but instead dynamically render SQL where the client context is baked in as constants in the policy-enforcing filters. The query planner seems to do a much better job deciding on join and filtering orders, particularly when the application filtering criteria sparsify the result so that policies only need to be enforced on a small subset of the tables.

For RLS to match our current system, I think it would need a way to partially evaluate the policy, so it could reuse common subexpressions and treat them like constants during plan optimization.
... Why not take the obvious answer: It's easy to be pessimistic when you interact with people. Just read HN and see how everyone disagrees. You start to think things won't ever get resolved, even among people with "good intentions".

Notably, of course, the KIND of pessimism or the TARGET of pessimism varies per individual based on their natural concerns, life situation, and lots of other variables. For example, individuals who like to think ahead / intuitive mentalities tend to plan out possibilities, and if you try to plan for all cases of Murphy's Law, it's going to make you feel like there's no end to the madness.
I know you're being glib, but are 2.6.x kernels vulnerable? The big corps tend define all linux as all linux that they support and isn't end of life. As far as I read early 3.x kernels on the Ubuntu side are not effected. Like version 12 and before.

So there's plenty of linux being used out there that's probably not effected.
I don’t buy the death by a thousand cuts — by itself.

I think the disappearance of a transcendent purpose, especially in the public sphere, combined with those little things that has brought on the pessimism.

When everyone’s getting richer, being a hedonic consumption machine is a rewarding existence. But if ones highest purpose is a pleasant and pleasurable life, you’ll be ill prepared when adversity strikes.

I started with BASIC, ca. 1981. I think that while VisiCalc is often hailed as the seminal "killer app," BASIC may deserve a close second place. Being able to turn on a computer and start entering a simple program, or create and share simple apps, was why a lot of people bought early microcomputers, including probably most scientists and hobbyists.

And yes, I'm mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration. ;-)

Yeah, I think it has to do with stock price appreciation. Since 2009, Google has grown 7x, Apple 9x, FB was non-public but a rough private market valuation gives about 9x, Amazon 32X, and Netflix 70X. MSFT has grown 5x, but 2x of that is since 2017 and virtually all of it since 2015 (while FB started its rally in 2013 and the rest in 2009), so it's been left out of the discourse.

Personally, I'm a fan of the acronym MAGA for the top tech companies, because that's the initials of the largest 4 (Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Apple) and they are Making America Great Again, with multiple levels of irony that your personal political views and historical knowledge can help you unpack.

Doesn't have AC. Looks like a pretty depressing home - tbh. HDR'd to hell but a brick yard and a BYO washer/dryer that's literally underneath the sun and skies isn't exactly where I'd like to put my expensive appliances.

You can check Craigslist and you won't have much better results. Adding AC | Air Conditioning to your search criteria makes it narrow. Go figure - homes with it are in high demand. God forbid they say, "Air conditioning" but really mean just central air and there's no actual air conditioning. Went to more than one showing that advertised that falsity. :(

Either way, this is beyond the point. Spending over 50% of your net income on rent alone isn't a great move. Which is what you'd be doing at $115k net income.
Not necessarily. A lot of immigrants are job creators. Think of how many startup founders are foreign, and have created a lot of money and jobs for a lot of people. Hell, look at how well represented foreigners are in the upper echelons of the FAANGs. Even Sergey Brin was born in Moscow.
