I have a basic question here. While RDS manages everything that we typically need, how is it different from the Serverless counterpart in the form of Aurora Postgres here?
I can make a guess. I have an impression, that everybody here likes open source and FPGAs very much. Author of this post is implementing “Private Island: Open Source FPGA-Based Network Processor for Privacy, Security, IoT, and Control” as described in https://mindchasers.com/dev/private-island

This might be a hot topic, but I can’t say exactly since this isn’t my domain. I know 2 startups working on this. One uses MAX10 FPGA, the other one is internal big Corp startup trying with their own RISC-V ASIC and secure operating system. They both do not have good product/market fit.

Regarding this exact post it’s weird, that I2C is used for debugging. One needs to actively poll the registers. I am using UART for this in my designs. It’s easier, because I do not need additional hardware to receive my debug data. It comes to my terminal in windows with no effort.
Not possible, politically.

Antibiotic management is an ongoing topic and effort, but you can't make independent countries comply.

Also, the amount of antibiotic used is not as much of a problem for AB resistance as some people using the "as candy" metaphor may think. The epidemiology of AB resistance is way more complicated, as the spreading of resistance requires multiple factors to coincide. Like the right resistance gene, the right strain, infection chains etc

As a European I was really surprised at how cycle-friendly San Francisco and Palo Alto (especially Stanford campus) are- its much better than you might expect. Room for improvement, but no worse than many cities over here.

Not sure what you're trying to say here, given Bear Stearns and Lehman just failed ~11yrs ago, and the entire banking system would have imploded if not for trillions in Fed lending support and govt stimulus.
> But... this habitual style of treating everything as a conspiracy, built around a personified enemy ("They gave legal force to a mind-set—let’s call it automobile supremacy—that kills 40,000 Americans a year)... this way of thinking isn't doing us any favours.

I get what you are saying, but isn't it, in this case, a relatively accurate description of what happened? If not all over the US, at least in some big cities.
Yes, but not UFOs as in aliens. UFOs as in there's a ton of unidentified aircraft in any given airspace that no one is claiming responsibility for. This is happening because the US Navy recently released a bunch of UFO info to the public and admitted that UFO encounters are a pretty frequent occurrence for Navy pilots (again, not in the aliens sense).

That's my thought too. Someone else mentioned the math being basically nonsense, but surely if it was there to misdirect other scientists there must be some grain of sense to it - otherwise it'd just be an exercise in futility?
Totally agree and totally ignores the fact that people like the flexibility and freedom (in fact as well as psychologically)

Unfortuetly this area and "green" in general does I am afraid does tend to attract "hobbyist" / "crank" activists. (I am using these terms in the political sense and not dising peoples hobbys

Eg the green movement needs to concentrate on the present problem (runaway global heating) and not on pious things like banning plastic straws.
OK, I'm not any kind of expert in this area, but is RNA not considered an early form of genetic coding? And DNA evolved from it? Also, don't viruses replicate by "borrowing" the mechanism of their hosts?

My understanding is that life visible to the naked eye is a minority of life forms on the planet. Maybe other forms of genetic coding than DNA are more prevalent than we anthropocentrists think.
Semion.io – graph-based search engine for papers and their interconnections
Well, that's what I say, Fennec is your only option. For now, there are no Chromium-based browsers on F-Droid (except the WebView-based browsers, which ironically, runs on proprietary software as well in the background).
If you find one truly open-source and reproducible Chromium browser, I'm intrigued, but as far as I know, they all pretend to be on F-Droid (= fake external F-Droid repo) but are not done by F-Droid team (which is sad).

What I despise most about conferences are the 10 different goodie bags that are forced upon you, containing countless low quality pens that you will never use, reports in plastic binders that are difficult to separate, plastic promo goods that I don’t even know how to recycle, and so on.

I hope more organizers will follow their example.
One thing I'd like to see (and this is definitely doable on macOS side) is that if you trash a .app, the OS would automatically revoke all permissions to it.

If this were done then even with the sneaky reinstalling, the user would be alerted by a system dialog requesting access to their webcam.

Why are you having such a hard time forming your own opinion? You shouldn't let the color of words or skin prevent you from doing that. That's certainly not my intention. That's why I'm providing you with direct irrefutable quotes. I'm just a guy saying stuff, too. It's not my fault if you choose to agree with him instead of me.

Does this quote tickle your fancy, or turn your stomach? Should all sensible white women abandon the software industry? Would you like to mansplain what they should be doing instead?

So are suburban train stations. It’s the natural byproduct of places where people change their mode of transport from cars to something else. Malls are one of the only high-density land uses that people in the suburbs accept, and the surrounding carpark is a necessary buffer between the low- and high-density development. I contend the problem isn’t with the mall itself, but with the low-density development surrounding it.

Zoom Update to Remove macOS Web Server
Of course it would. I'd be first in line.

Looks like they have decided to update the Zoom Client to remove the installed Web Service. I also got the popup post meeting too asking me to update my client.
It grows a need in me to see the real thing - because I know the special FX crashing is invented, and I'd like to know how it would look (and sound, and smell, and feel) in reality.
This is very annoying for development in my eyes.

What is the preferred way to include https in your development flow? Have an nginx or apache running? What about automated tests against a running application?
It's annoying in either case. Passwords should be any string I want! You're just going to hash it anyway.

I found it particularly egregious that Zoom's form auto-trims any spaces from the end of the string - so they are deleted as you type with no feedback (unless you happen to be watching the dots flicker).
As a resident of Copenhagen this was not really my impression. Yes, Palo Alto is cycleable, kinda in the same way any small town in the world is cycleable - low amount of traffic and comparatively wide streets. San Francisco is cycleable because it is 7x7 miles large so not that much space to sprawl but cycling infrastructure is basically completely absent.

What surprised me though is how overall passable public transport in San Francisco was. MUNI and BART are pretty okay for getting around even if locals don't believe so. Unsurprisingly whenever I was in trams, they were full of other European tourists.

From the article we may actually want them to be used for treating animals.

Apparently these molecules are very hard to build resistance against. Bacteria evolve resistances to many ABs from scratch in lab conditions. If more is discovered about the mechanism of these two drugs, one could speculate about a potential resistance gene.

Is it enough to "adapt" existing genes in most microbes, like with Penicilline? Is a novel gene, traveling on a vector, required to defuse it (like with Carbapanemes)? Or is it extremely unlikely that pathogens evolve any way to counter it?

The latter could be because the mechanism of action is not trivially countered. You can compare it with patching vulnerabilities. A vulnerability is sometimes not addressable without crippling a business critical feature.

Then we might want to use these drugs in animals and less in Humans, because we know more about how the old drugs work and their side effects.

Changing it makes the organism non-viable, so a change there never enters a population. In contract DNA/RNA-mutations can be viable so happen all the time.

By simple I mean it's interface, not the setup, I'm not _too_ concerned about the setup, but I'd like to try a few different options so the easier it is the more likely I'm going to try it.

My concerns with Pixelfed are; first I don't understand how the federated part works at this point and how that relates to running a standalone instance, and also, it appears to be early days which is a risk, in my eyes to opening something in early development to the internet.
They are ditching butterfly keyboards due to the reliability issues (dust causing keys to malfunction), not because of they've abandoned the quest for thinner, lighter laptops.

There's no problem with having the capability in a web app. It's only a problem if those capabilities are not consented to b the user first.
I was a teaching assistant for the Introduction to Programming course on the first year of a CS degree. At the very least I can say it was a humbling experience.

One thing I learned while teaching complete novices is that it is really hard for experienced engineers to get into the mindset of students. You need to forget everything you know and start more basic that you think it's necessary. You will need to teach people what are variables, list, functions, and so on.

As an example an student got confused when we wrote something like the following:

let X = 1;
let X = X + 1;

How could X be X + 1 at the same time? Maths don't work that way!. It might seem absurd to a programmer, but if you are in the mindset of someone who is only familiar with maths equations, it makes sense.

So yeah, I would forget git, command line, tangents and whatnot, and focus on very basic concepts instead.

It would be not, stop pretending acquiring consent from a statistical model counts as acquiring consent from the actual user.

Thing you wrote may make it acceptable for you, but certainly ain't sufficient for me.

A decentralized cryptocurrency would not reward economies of scale the way Bitcoin does.
I'd also like to add that there's a chance they also swap out your battery during the keyboard repair.
I've heard the opinion that most antibiotic resistance genes don't seem to originate in agricultural use.

High AB usage is one factor in developing and spreading resistance, but it's way more complicated. For example the resistance genes also have to jump onto a bacterium that is pathogenic...
There are also things like tardigrades [1] which are pretty much the epoch of survival evolution. And this is all just stuff on our little planet. It's hard to say anything about life on a large scale, since we are basing everything we know on a sample of one. But it's probably safe to say that we have not even scratched the surface of what's possibility through just plain old evolution alone.

Most people don't, and the touchbar just makes it more versatile for more users at the cost of tactility.
That startup won't have the couple hundred millions needed to get the compound through clinical in the first place. So, what they do is they team up with "Big Pharma" (I hate that dog whistle) and get royalties.

For the pharma corp. it makes sense as the new antibiotic will also take market share from the competition, so they have a net gain. If they project to lose 2.5bn on their existing drug, spend 1bn for purchasing the startup and make 7bn on the new drug, why on earth would they buy the startup to shut it down?

Are you serious? You need to establish presence at an exchange meaning you need to scan and send your ID to a company which more likely than not -- does QuadrigaCX ring a bell -- is run by scammers. Then you need to buy bitcoin and store it somewhere... and then send it to someone. The sending costs an unknown amount, takes an unknwon amount of time, the receiver gets something but none of you can predict how much that is actually worth by the time they receive it. If they want to do something with it they need to go through the exchange rigmarole. And you call this very easy to use.

Bitcoin was, is always will be nothing more than a novel scam. It's not a Ponzi... it's a novel form of scam. https://prestonbyrne.com/2017/12/08/bitcoin_ponzi/

The apocryphal "Picasso's napkin" is a similar concept.
If you live in a small town of 100,000 people, that means 11 of your neighbors will be killed by drivers crashing their cars every year.

And that doesn’t account for the deaths and health costs caused by road pollution, by inactive lifestyles forced on communities due to car-centered infrastructure, etc...

Given the car-oriented status quo, perhaps it’s true that cars give owners tremendous freedom and agency (at the costs outlined above, plus tremendous financial cost). But it’s also true that many of the most desirable and productive parts of our cities are that way despite cars and not because of them.

You might be interested in Annie Jacobsen's interview on the JRE. She argued that the 'flying saucers' were actually just an elaborate Soviet attempt at psychological warfare. I have no idea if it's true or not but it's entertaining at least, so I'll summarize it here.

The theory states that at the end of WWII, Stalin was feeling vulnerable because the US had the atomic bomb but the USSR did not. So he was interested in ways to try to destabilize the US and level the playing field.

So Stalin decided to have his engineers build some flying saucers and fly them into the continental US in order to freak people out. He also had some human cadavers surgically altered to look like aliens and them stuck them in the capsule for good measure.

By flying the saucers into the US mainland, the USSR hoped to put the US government in a bind. If the civilians who would inevitably find the craft were left to believe that it really was an alien ship, the prospect that 'we are not alone' would stir mass social unrest. On the other hand, if the govt identified the vessel as a Soviet aircraft, it would have to admit that the Russians were able to sneak into US airspace without the US military noticing, which would be a scandal in and of itself.

I think that story - as crazy as it is - is more plausible than actual aliens visiting Earth (though its not exactly a high bar). Stalin was certainly psycho enough to consider running such a harebrained scheme. It would also explain why the US govt would cover the whole thing up even if there were no aliens involved.

In any case, I am far more inclined to believe that any UFOs sighting is military-related than any kind of alien encounter.

The language of this article just makes me cringe.

Other than that, it's really quite reasonable though.
localhost is considered "secure" and doesn't need https - this can be used by most development and automated testing flows. For remote development, I tend to setup a caddy server which makes it very easy to get an SSL certificate.

This is still mildly annoying.
