Hi Klez, I determined this to be the only way to get in touch regarding a previous discussion we had on Blendle [0] as I can no longer reply on that thread.

This was back in 2017 so they may have fixed their issues.

Alexander Klöpping <alexander.klopping@blendle.com> emailed me, I'll grant it was a generic welcome email, asking for feedback. I took the opportunity to email back informing him of the problems with using my email address [1]. I don't recall the problem now, but it seems they accepted my email address but then later rejected it during the sign-up process (as I clearly received an email correctly...).

I no longer have their response, but from memory, it was a different customer service person, and they rejected the idea that they had any problem AND/OR explicitly said they weren't going to make any changes. Oh, and they sent that response to the email that I explicitly said wouldn't work (it automatically gets sent to the trash to be deleted which is also why I don't have it any more).

Their rejection of fixing their service is what made me decide to put Blendle in the trash category.

Dear Alexander Klöpping,

When I first heard about Blendle I was excited at the concept of being able to read high-quality journalism from multiple different sources through one - ad-free - platform and one reasonably-priced payment system, and so I signed up for the beta. I successfully started the process of joining Blendle by unlocking and selecting some preferences. However, I have been unable to proceed past entering my email address, X+Y@gmail.com. I should make it clear that the email address X@gmail.com cannot be used.

Could you please assist me and help me get started with Blendle?

Best,

Microsoft had a patent application on a very similar idea:

> Television viewing tends to be a passive experience for a viewer[...] To increase interactive viewing and encourage a user to watch one or more particular items of video content, awards and achievements may be tied to those items of video content. [...] Producers, distributors, and advertisers of the video content may set viewing goals and award a viewer who has reached the goals.[...]

> Additionally, the viewing behavior may include an action performable by the viewer and detectable by one or more sensors, such as a depth camera.[...]

> If the viewing goal has been met, an award may be granted to the viewer. An award may be a virtual award. Such as an addition to a viewer score or an update to an avatar associated with the viewer

HN discussion[1] about why plants do not get Cancer was interesting to me and somewhat related to this story on mold.

So I guess my question is, is there a mold that would be beneficial to have grow in such a confined environment? I assume the ventilation system can filter out the spores, are astronauts by way of the enclosed environment subject to more exposure to spores than on Earth or are the numbers much lower by volume?

I can tell you it'll make your hair fall out.

And maybe make you 20% less anxious/more focused, but honestly it's hard to say... actually, in retrospect I never experienced acute anxiety when I was experimenting with it. Certainly worth a shot.
Tiktok has been on a crusade of late and removed millions of videos which has severely deteriorated the user experience.
I think if news of that got out, the US government would not be happy with one of their companies being complicit in signing Chinese malware. China gets away with a lot of stuff because companies can write it off to spies or other infiltration. Outright approval of it wouldn't go so well, especially after the Huawai affair.

We do have the freedom to choose, we pick Google or Apple if it’s an issue we care about. If we don’t care about it, it doesn’t matter which we pick.

It’s like complaining that Toyota gives you the option of reliability but Nissan doesn’t. You pick from the options available.
It still requires user confirmation before install, autonomous updates are still not possible.
Do you believe that is what Microsoft employees do while writing Windows Internals? I have serious trouble believing it. I'm not saying that it's not possible, just that it might not be the case there and these facts seem to confirm it.
> you have to do something to fight the entropy.

Stuff breaks. So you fix it. Boring old stuff needs fixing too sometimes. Problem is, old stuff gets obsolete, can't get replacement parts, because of progress. (or something). It's the same story since the first looms were made centuries ago.

What you can't fix you can't really depend on. Our time scales are just compressed to ridiculousness because the pace of change is off the charts these days. So basically, you can't really depend on anything working more than a few months before falling over. Sucks.

It's not any better (stated as fact) because you hold an unsubstantiated opinion which so far is contradicted by actual reality.

Today Android phones have this malware on them and iOS phones do not, so the actual facts in the real world are that iOS is free of this intrusion.

That might change, but the situation now is what it is. This is why you are getting downvoted.
AFAIK, he never had privileged access while he was still commiting to ReactOS.

It doesn't really matter what you choose - you won't get the choice you really want in our world (at least not that fast and it won't be as shiny and exciting as the advertised stuff we can buy already).

One should consider smartphones unsafe devices and not trust important data to them.

Even most computers aren't really safe devices. With a lot of effort you can minimize risks (e.g. using core/libreboot, full disc encryption, live OSes etc.) but you'll never find a way to absolute security and privacy.

The discussion if Android or iOS is safer doesn't really matter that much in my opinion. I choose iOS because of their constraints. The pseudo-freedom Android gave me wasn't enough or that useful that I'd consider using that system again so soon. Also I like the fact that I can use an iDevice for a longer period including new OS- and security- updates. (just my personal opinion without any recommendation)
If we want to fight tracking, both users and publishers have to see some benefit in it. Now publishers want first-party tracking and don't care about third-party; while users mostly don't care.
Android is not safe from the same problems. Google also shows all gov's demands for information.
They can totally afford cake too. Nothing to complain about.

Lacking swap space causes more severe symptoms in an OOM situation, not less, from my experience. I think this is because everything that can get evicted from RAM is before the OOM killer gets invoked, which means every disk access slows to a crawl.

There are many terrible interviewers and companies out there who would treat asking for clarification as a weakness so I imagine many interviewees avoid asking for clarification to avoid appearing "weak".

As others have said make sure you start the interview clearly inviting questions, but also if the candidate still seems reticent (they might believe it's a trick offer) maybe engage in a dialog as they start addressing the question.

For example immediately ask an open ended question about some edge case "What do we think should happen if the tree only has a single node?" or something like that. By immediately beginning a dialogue you invite more discussion. But bear in mind many candidates just won't enter into a discussion, it's not how they work, so try not to hold it against them if they are otherwise perfectly suited.

> In the United States, the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 required that all full-body scanners operated in airports by the Transportation Security Administration use "Automated Target Recognition" software, which replaces the picture of a nude body with the cartoon-like representation.[3] As a result of this law, all backscatter X-ray machines formerly in use by the Transportation Security Administration were removed from airports by May 2013, since the agency said the vendor (Rapiscan) did not meet their contractual deadline to implement the software.[4]

> It will sometimes cause less proficient readers to take away substantial misunderstandings about the contents of the article.

The most prolific example of the reading level mismatches causing trouble is
Paul Krugman's August 2002 column: Dubya's Double Dip? https://www.nytimes.com/2002/08/02/opinion/dubya-s-double-di...?

The famous sentence from the article:

> To fight this recession the Fed needs more than a snapback; it needs soaring household spending to offset moribund business investment. And to do that, as Paul McCulley of Pimco put it, Alan Greenspan needs to create a housing bubble to replace the Nasdaq bubble.

If you read the whole article and think that Krugman says this housing bubble is a good idea your reading level can't be that good. Too many people did read the whole article and failed to grasp the tone and nuance. Even Arnold Kling had to point out this to his readers http://www.econlib.org/archives/2009/06/defending_what.html
The problem lies in making things work with optimizations. For example, how do you schedule instructions and allocate registers optimally when you don't know the exact sequence of instructions that is executed? Not gettimg that right costs you a bunch of performance. Then there are things like variants of the code that might be vectorized under certain conditions. You would need to find them in the compiler and be able to emit the proper alternative code templates and a way for the runtime to pick them up when appropriate. A full JIT could do all that at runtime, but that is also expensive to run and likely too big and buggy to exist in a stable and safe operating system kernel.

I’d love that you point to an instance where the private symbols of the kernel actually shipped?

It is very possible that some private symbols were part of some leak, but stolen data does not qualify as “shipping” :)

Again, I stand behind my opinion. I eyeballed some of the code side-by-side and there was portions where I could literally see a line-by-line correlation, which I can hardly explain.

Then if reversing the kernel is so doable using legitimate means, why ReactOS is still largely stuck in the early 2000’s, coincidentally where the major leaks happened?

TikTok is a strange one - It has some great content, but if you scroll through the home feed, you still stumble on pictures of kids dancing and lipsyncing in... inappropriate ways.

I don't use CloudFlare nor have any interest in them, but I don't see the arrogance. The issues CloudFlare have are things everyone takes seriously and are working very hard on. Deployment and memory safety are hard problems that happens to the best of the best. It happens Google, Amazon and Facebook. If anything the idea that this would damaging, because it is more public, is arrogant. If CloudFlare would be saying that everything is fine you might have a point, but they aren't. Just like the other companies mentioned they seem to be improving their routines, programming and infrastructure to try and mitigate these problems.

What they are criticising however are things like not adopting new protocols or not taking things that affects everyone seriously. This isn't something that would happen if people were trying. And the response from some of the industry is "we know what we are doing", and shortly after the same thing happens again and again and again.

So I don't really see CloudFlare being that arrogant, if anything it's the "you are not better than us" from some parts of the industry that is. The day I see CloudFlare not trying I would be happy calling them arrogant. But if anything I would caution that they are too successful by trying more than most.

An 1924 Ford cost $265 (In this Freedom Mailer: http://www.oldcarbrochures.com/static/NA/Ford/1924_Ford/1924...), which in today's money is only $3,968 (based on https://www.usinflationcalculator.com). Is that true? Why didn't _everybody_ have a car?
Given what you have said, I am willing to be optimistic and no longer associate DSC with4:2:0 TV screens displaying text :)

In particular your mention of PNG reminds me that it is lossless, so the idea of "visually lossless" at a much lower ~4:1 compression ratio seems more reasonable to me now.
> and who makes the judgement on what a "truly" bad gov't is?

Maybe common sense, human freedom index, etc.

Are you really arguing that as Westerners we cannot tell a bad government from a good one?
_My_ definition of theft is completely irrelevant. Theft is inherently defined by law and thus by the state. It would be very interesting if anyone can show me any law that defines the collection of taxes as theft - because it'd be stupid.
Passport scanners at the airports are highly regulated. Facial recognition is not.

This is the airline collecting your biometrics — a completely different entity from the border control that usually checks your passport.

You insert your passport and that should be it. Border control has already checked your identity. Afterwards, your photo was taken by the airline in order to "verify you".

Granted, airlines could get your photograph in a myriad of ways, but this system makes it as convenient for them as it can get.

I tried ctrl+f on text inside collapsed details and it didnt show up. I would have expected that with correct semantics, the browser would have figured out that it should expand the details and highlight that text.

I've been around motorsports most of my life and I used to see this all the time at racetracks in America. Even in NASCAR country, lots of people assume the "good ol' boy" accent means a person is just a shade-tree mechanic even if they're the most well-educated person in the garage.

Another piece of software that I thought made Windows productive in the 90s was Microsoft Publisher.

We got this bundled with...something? Maybe a printer? And I used it a lot for schoolwork. It was clean, neat and powerful. You could use it to layout a page really easily.

At some point they stopped selling it to normal people and brought out Microsoft Home Publishing instead. And of course it was complete crap by comparison.

I have since discovered that Adobe Illustrator is better than both.
At Rome's FCO airport there is a facial recognition passport control for flights outside of the EU. Last time I left the EU, my aging passport's chip refused to work and a person made me retry 5 times before letting me go to the human passport control.

It must be said that the non-European, non-biometric passport control can easily take 30 minutes longer.

I have to say that I've never thought about this in terms of databases, I somewhat assumed that they were only matching against the local copy in my passport, but maybe someone can elucidate for me on how this works on EU passports.
>but, overall the political power of Appalachia does not at all seem sufficient to warrant extra attention

They also serve (willingly or not) as exemplars held up by Republicans, particularly in the populist ideology of Trump supporters, of those "real Americans" who have been betrayed by globalism and progressivism, and to further the narrative of an intractable cultural and political divide having formed between the rural right and urban left (and to contrast the cultural and ethnic purity of the former against the corrupting influence of multiculturalism and secularism among the latter.)
I think they have this the wrong way round. Indica is known for its relaxation effects. Couch lock isn't due to anxiety but relaxed passivity, and sativa strains tend to promote overthinking and paranoia in those (inc. myself) prone to it.

I'm confused about those examples. Both symbols seem to be referenced in quite a few web resources that aren't dumps of that research kernel and either github search is a bit broken or I can't seem to find many of those in your [1] repository.
> Is that still true today?

I think it is.

> Docker wants you to log to stdout, so that's what most newer applications do.

According to Debian popularity contest [1], which matches my observations, Docker itself isn't a particularly common package to be found in a system.

> systemd also wants you to log to stdout

While that's an option, there is sd-journal(3), which allows proper logging with priorities and custom fields.

Edit: Perhaps worth mentioning that even with systemd and logging into stdout, syslogd (and maybe journald) configuration should be sufficient to sort out the log files, as mentioned in the grandparent comment.

The gamut might be wider but "however you'd like" is a bit of a stretch. Wearing traditional Arabian dress -- for men or women -- would almost certainly increase the amount of friction you experience in a day. Also, a frivolous example; women are pretty rarely topless on mainstream beaches even in CA.
1) you got the 2 mixed up, it's indica that's the in-da-couch. Sativa is the brain-high.

2) there's little evidence to prove that sativa/indica strains affect your high. The curing, drying, growing of each individual plant alters the THC-CBD-CBG ratios way more than strain or species.
