All flash media cards should be treated as unreliable (source: 10 years photographing professionally). An errant static discharge, a damaged pin, or a cracked piece of thin plastic are all that stand between an easy offload of photos and possibly losing them completely. I _always_ configured the cameras to mirror to both card slots in order to have an instant backup, placing a larger capacity SD card in its slot and using smaller CF cards as the primary and swapping in and out. In my experience, CF cards are more durable due to being thicker, so I was more comfortable swapping those in and out regularly.

> The enc program does not support authenticated encryption modes like CCM and GCM, and will not support such modes in the future.

> For bulk encryption of data, whether using authenticated encryption modes or other modes, cms(1) is recommended, as it provides a standard data format and performs the needed key/iv/nonce management.

So don't use `openssl enc` to encrypt data.

`openssl cms` that is recommended above is S/MIME. Don't use S/MIME.

I think Data is too vague of a term. It's probably more a combination of proprietary metadata + personal/targeted demographic data.

Does a store (online or B&M) have exclusive license of your aggregate heatmap while you walk/browse through the store? - I think many would argue that's probably valid.

Does it have the right to link that to your demographics/psychology to optimize the store? They probably do ... but for your benefit? Sounds like "personalization" - a bit murky. How about if it's for their benefit (personal price segmentation)? That sounds bad/unethical. How about if it's to only serve the "right people"? That's clearly on the edge of legality.

The remedy is to have cyberethics on how personal/private data is controlled and aggregated. It's not about "opening things up" but using Amazon as a case study as to how to draw borders/distinctions on proprietary vs. personal data. GDPR++
I've definitely seen what you're describing, but not all of our supermarkets are like that. If you visit higher-end supermarkets (like HEB or Trader Joe), you'll see fresh breads baked in-store, gourmet cheeses, top quality meats, and fresh in-season fruits.

If you visit Walmart Supercenter grocery stores, you'll see mostly lower-end crap and frozen boxes.

The simple explanation is that each is catering to what their audience expects, and the prices they can afford.
> Best cars I've ever owned,

Well yes. Most people's current car is the "best they've ever owned" because people generally amass more wealth and drive nicer cars as time goes on (people who begrudgingly buy minivans notwithstanding).

SpaceX is the more mature and financially stable company by far IMO.
I understand your point but food is not just a sum of calories. Not all food is metabolised the same. Athletes consume a lot of calories but avoid junk food.

Edit: as I read your comment again, actually, I think we mostly agree.
I think that depends on the viewer. e.g. One could watch tv news passively accepting everything as fact OR watch the news while trying to understand what the agenda of the news program is.
I second this approach which is what I do as well. My baseline is that I prefer to not have any dependencies. This is usually not realistic nor necessarily pragmatic in practice (i.e. reinventing a relational database), but its a good baseline.

My general feeling towards dependencies (in programs or life) is "do I really want to depend on this thing?" Almost always the answer should be "no". But the follow-up is "do I really need to depend on this thing?" and sometimes the answer is yes because I don't want to or can't re-implement the thing due to time or because I don't have the expertise.

Ask HN: Building LinkedIn alternative for tech focused community
As LinkedIn have become feed flood of humble-brags, self proclaimed gurus of work life balance and unknown social connections which may never generate any value.

It may be good for professional networking & generating network for business people. Not sure, how much value it generates for software developers.

What would an alternative LinkedIn like social network look like for tech people which actually can add values in terms of jobs search, improving knowledge, helping get referral and talk directly with people who do hiring decisions?

In a mature and thoughtful society, with robust communities committed to stimulating and attentive care for kids, yes I think it's preferable to take a super conservative approach to censoring content and instead to spend enough time directly with kids (our own and those of our friends and neighbors) to help them navigate the minefield of content that exists in the world.

I am hopeful that that's the world we're cultivating.
Yup. That's why for the last few years I've been so outspoken about Uber and (less often) AirBnB - I view those companies not as just poisoning the spaces they work in, but as a general threat to the fundamental underpinnings of societies worldwide. This may sound extreme, but as you correctly pointed out - others see how successful those companies are, how much media praise they're getting, and try to copy them.

This is the case in my comparison between Spain and the US. Spanish produce was definitely cheaper (in a larger city than I usually live in, to boot). There's also a slightly different setup though. Here in the US, sometimes a supermarket is the only place a person has in range (or tries to be). This means they carry EVERYTHING, and they want it to last on the shelf as long as possible. Meanwhile, I would go to a corner store for bread in Madrid, a block over to a produce store for fresh fruit and veg, and occasionally to the supermarket about 15 minutes walking to stock up on more pantry-stable goods and treats.

Conveniently you left off the important part: the thing I'm trying to do is a thing that appears to be possible with the presented metaphor, so therefore should be simple, but since the metaphor is illusion it is not simple.

Consider that such things exist because despite every OS having a dependency manager to "solve" the problem, it is still less of a headache to just bundle dependencies!

Not sure why you're being down-voted for this, as shared elsewhere in the thread [0] you're right. There's also this [1][2] from a UK think-tank which annoyingly I couldn't find any more information on, which says to meet UK government healthy eating guidelines, the lowest income decile would have to spend 74% of their disposable income after housing on food.

The 'healthy food is cheap' group seem to ignore the existence of food deserts, outcomes of research and living situations where kitchens are poorly equipped, running off a meter or other factors which mean spending up to half an hour preparing an (absolutely delicious /s) plate of boiled vegetables and rice isn't realistic. Not to mention rates of in-work poverty resulting in people with lower incomes working multiple jobs. Expending time and energy cooking a bland meal from scratch vs. buying chicken and chips with a fizzy drink for (max) £2.50? No contest in my view.

I live in a city center without a car and even being within maybe the top 20% by income here I still find it far easier to get by on junk food and have to consciously expend energy or money to avoid that. If I go to the Tesco Express (3 minutes walk) vs the Tesco Extra (30-40 minutes walk) then the offers on junk food make it much cheaper than the vegetables (Express are corner stores and carry a very limited selection with larger markups).

Unhealthy items are cheaper than healthy items. If I'm on a limited budget and have to get enough food for a week, I'm not getting nearly as many fruits and vegetables as I would otherwise. Pasta is $1/lb and store-brand sauce is $2/jar, suddenly I can make 2 meals for $1.50 each. It's very cheap to buy carb-heavy items that don't have much else in the way of nutrition so of course that's what people buy when funds are limited.
It's not just car ferries. Accident scenes and construction zones sometimes require you to obey hand signals and ignore road markings.

There aren't many car ferries around where I live. But there's plenty of construction...

It isn't particularly surprising that those with less money would limit their purchases at the corner store to non-essential items. That is usually how corner, or literally convenience, stores work.

I didn't watch television for 2 years. (I watched a movie on rare occasion, but that was the exception.) I read a lot during that time. It felt fantastic. I don't think I've ever had so much thinking space.

I still don't watch a lot of television. Occasionally a movie with my wife on the weekend. I'm pretty happy with it. :) Sure, there are other things I do that are probably a waste of time, but one step at a time.

> Waymo’s CEO, John Krafcik, has admitted that a self-driving car that can drive in any condition, on any road, without ever needing a human to take control—usually called a “level five” autonomous vehicle—will basically never exist.

“Never” is kind of a strong word in this context... My personal belief is that we could very well have level five autonomy within the decade, using only two video cameras and two microphones behind a windscreen. But this would of course require major progress in A.I., of the sort that may also not happen in a hundred years.
I guess I feel this way, because I feel a small bit of responsibility towards my neighbors. Renting out a place is not inherently a violation of a social contract.

> Reality doesn't work like that. You drop the "potentially" once the risk becomes predictably high. The owner is breaking the social contract by putting their neighbors at very high risk of dealing with guests who don't respect other people.

A flood of legitimate complaints about poor guest behavior would likely make me stop - i.e. the pattern is now predictably high enough to make a logical conclusion. I hope that my neighbors would be courteous enough to do the same.

> But AirBnB should know better than enabling this problem in the first place.

I think someone else touched on this, but I have a feeling that the location attracts different types of guests. Beaches are a great example. The surrounding area is a good indicator if the beach is a party beach or more oriented for family vacations. The former typically has brighter lights, more bars, clubs, and places open later. Family-friendly beaches usually shut down activity around 10 or 11 save for the corner store that's open later. I bet the Airbnb guest behavior reflect this as well.
A lot of those benefits are not direct properties of static typing. For example, common lisp(s) can have a very nice REPL experience like this. With numeric stuff you have probably typed the interface anyway, and your environment can interrogate that. I always liked CL for research code for this reason.
> many people are fundamentally uninterested in rocks; they're mundane, pretty static, boring, etc.

Are they, though? I totally get where you are coming from, but wouldn't it be more fair to geology to say that it takes more effort to learn and understand what makes them interesting? ;)
> Furthermore, even over an encrypted connection it is not difficult to figure out which files you are downloading based on the size of the transfer2. HTTPS would therefore only be useful for downloading from a server that also offers other packages of similar or identical size.

This nonsensical argument again.

Eavesdropping on HTTP: inspect the request body and see wich package and version is requested . That's it.

Eavesdropping on HTTPS: 1) build up a database of package sizes for versions. 2) Reassemble HTTPS traffic to figure out what HTTPS requests are. 3) Account for randomized padding lengths and packages of similar sizes (what if a minor security fix results in the same package size? ) 4) perform a lookup of the package version in your sophisticated database.

It's not even the same ballpark of complexity. Sure, dedicated targeted semi sophisticated attackers can still eavesdrop your HTTPS connections, but HTTPS sure as heck protects against casual snoopers. Which do you really think is more relevant in the real world? And furthermore what kind of attacker achieves the level of sophistication for such a lookup mechanism, and doesn't have the sophistication to screw you over in some other way? There is zero understanding of economics or real-world attacker motivations in this argument.

It boggles my mind that there are people so stubborn - or think they're so clever - that they rather set up a dedicated website with a "well, actually" argument only based in pure technology. They do this instead of thinking critically about this and work towards giving people sane defaults.
Not to pound on you digitalsushi, I don't imagine you have a say in the policy, but ..
"we are prohibited from using HTTP but we do not require our certificates to be up to date"

WHAT'S THE F%@#ING POINT if you do not require proper certificate ?!?!
I've been saying for many years that the HTTPS everywhere is not a good idea and would end up in false sens of security. It's like green-washing; everybody pretend doing it except not really ....

Luckly, in the case of Apt it does not matter much but there are other cases of blind-https-all-the-thing-stupidly where it does.

Calories in - (calories used + calories excreted). Of course, calories in = calories in food x extraction efficiency, and already the simple formula has become filled with inconsistent values.
OP said we should restrict items to healthier foods. My response to that is I'm for that if you increase the amount to match the cost of fruits, vegetables, and meats.

And honestly comparing people on food stamps to heroin junkies is disgusting. These people aren't addicted to potato chips. There are obviously people who abuse the SNAP program but you think people want to remain fat and unhealthy? The amount given to people on SNAP is not enough to pay for healthy foods. So given the choice between eating potato chips and not eating.. What options are you giving them?

And to think that Google would never submit to Chinese censorship in earnest is naive. Yahoo![1], Google, Microsoft, Cisco, AOL, Skype, and Nortel all willingly partook in aiding the censorship apparatus. Yahoo! even went so far as to out journalists and political targets for the Chinese government. Why wouldn't Google do the same?
