I think this comes down to the fact that English speakers don't consider their own articles very much because they're always the same. We don't have to put any effort into picking one, so selection is unconscious and automatic.

I recall Ukrainians objecting to the English-speaking world's fixation on calling their country "the Ukraine" instead of just "Ukraine." The propensity to just append articles to nouns to facilitate flow is hard to overcome.
The lesson from Elon Musk’s ‘funding secured’ mess is to never lie reguarding your publicly traded companys finances in a tweet
Yes. This. Greece was the test for the latest wealth-transfer mechanism. Why wait for unreliable governments to bail you out when you can just confiscate deposits?
What's the deployment story on Elixir as of now? I recall that some previous threads had not-so-nice things to say about deploying Elixir apps. Any progress on this front?
I understand that an out of control application can't be made to behave by any amount of RAM. But it's out of control, so if it dies it's (kind of) OK. I saw memory leaks in production and the usual workaround is rebooting the application or the OS once per day. Sometimes more than that. And then warming up the caches ect.

On a shell server there is no Xorg running, not even on machines with a partial of complete X11 installation because (example) they need fonts to generate PDFs. I just checked a few of them.

On a desktop/laptop Xorg is the last thing I want to hang or be killed because it makes it harder to check what went wrong. I'll look into oom_adj, thanks.
There isn't a rule about that sort of thing, but a convention you get used to over time.

Adding the Les gives Olympiades more context. The extra word provides clues that this is a straight foreign word that should be treated differently. Port d'Italie is already two words, so extra context isn't necessarily needed.

Like many things in English, it's up to the speaker/writer, and the context.
I like my SE so much that I bought a spare last time they were in the online store to use when this one is kaput. I have a spare one for my wife, too, when her current one is done.

If Apple introduces another phone in that size range before I have to break out the backups, especially if it's in the $400 price range, then I'll buy the new phone and give the backup ones to my kids.

For what I need from a phone, the SE is as good as I have been able to find.
As I said, they might be able to pay drivers less during a recession but if total ridership is down they are still going to be in trouble during a recession. If they have problems reaching profitability now I don't understand how a recession will do anything but harm them.
It's possible those who will grow up with higher frame rates will consider the smoothing normal. And they may consider 24fps choppy. Time will tell.

...scientific bodies that have chipped away their credibility...

I don't understand why it is so hard to get my message across. Perhaps it's my English (not a native speaker) or maybe the crowd in here finds it very hard to look the sorry state of science atm mostly because they feel invested in it one way or another.
Instagram takes a toll on influencer's brains
To help keep proprietary company communications from getting out?
I’m genuinely interested, can you provide a source for this?

My understanding of companies is they have always been exploitative. Any large company from the gilded age is a good example (now almost a century ago).

Further back, the companies of the industrial revolution were legendary for their amorality. Another example I’m familiar with is coal companies in Scotland before WWI.
You guys should really get on top of that pointy stick situation now.

Fox News???
Those disclosures do not always impact only the vendors, but can also impact end users, so I don't think this is only about being nice to the vendors (I'm aware that vulnerabilities can be exploited even if they are not disclosed by security researchers - and that disclosing can in some cases benefit the end user - but I guess it makes it much cheaper to since you don't have to hire a team of highly qualified professionals to find them).
Ask HN: How to annotate/beautify Multiple (~3) Screenshots
Hi there, in my PM workflow im constantly taking screenshots and annotating them [0] or "making them nicer for sharing" [1].

Now, i can only "export" for sharing (file or URL) for one screen shoot at a time.

=> is there a nice macOS/web service that allows me to throw in ~2 or 3 screen shots and annotate and expose them in a particular order ?

The simple solution for me today is google drawing or https://whimsical.com whith its infinite canvas but...not good/simple enough

Thanks :)

In the companies I have seen I never understood the difference between CTO and VP Engineering. Some had only one of them, some both. I understand that somehow the CTO sets the technological vision and the VP executes but I have never seen this really work. Especially in tech companies where a lot of people spend their whole time on developing the vision.

In a small company CTO seems more like a cool title than actually a real role.

I fat-finger a lot, especially on mobile where these tiny little arrows are a challenge. And one thing I notice is that since both the arrows disappear, you're never quite sure if you did. You have to question your fat fingers yourself, and if you're unsure, Undo gives you the option to take a second shot. But you're never entirely sure.
She has written several posts about Silicon Valley culture before, both for the New Yorker and other publications—I learned about her work back in 2016, on N+1. I recommend reading it, it was quite fun and depressing at the same time: https://nplusonemag.com/issue-25/on-the-fringe/uncanny-valle...

Opinion piece by a computer science professor. From the article: "There’s nothing intrinsically bad about e-mail as a tool." Whew, what a relief. I wonder if the click-bait headline was his idea?
This was a special report specifically on land use, so it makes sense they focused on diet and forests.
> Hacker News moderation is not appealable, not auditable, does not have bright line rules, and there are no due process rights. It simply does not respect individual rights.

What you are asking for would take significantly more resources. I appreciate what you are saying, but all I ask is that a site be consistent. If it is consistently moderated, I as a user can vote with my feet (or my clicks in this case) if I approve or disapprove of the job that is being done.
Yeah it's all about the cloud services and FOSS doesn't ... just make a FOSS cloud or services.

It doesn't seem likely to in the near term either.
No one said there aren't cultural differences. There are very huge differences! Being lazy or a dumbass is not a cultural difference. The implication that Mexicans are lazy and Swiss are not is racist.

Suburbs in the sky are unusual because they're not very space-efficient, but fortress-like apartments-atop-mall complexes are quite common in Jakarta.

Freedom is never won forever. Every generation has to fight to keep it back. We got great gifts from our elders: an internet that is based on open specs. Open source licenses that are legally tested. An ethos of sharing. Organizations with real power. Cryptography.

We have to continue on new fronts. Right now people are making open source silicon, but it is still in its infancy, it is to Intel as Linux 1.0 was to Microsoft: a laughable threat.

We need to find better licenses for AI models, promote the Affero GPL. Forge new tools to protect privacy. Maybe work more closely with governments that have understood that privacy is not just a geek's concern?

Enjoy your freedoms, but don't take them for granted. Fighting for them, forging the tools to preserve them, it is worth a bit of your money and a bit of your time.
Do you have a source given that vegetarians seem healthy and blue zones* (high frequency of centenarians) frequently have diets low in meat and/or dairy? Osaka, Seventh Day Adventist communities, etc. come to mind

the modular design adds some memory access latency but i think it also lets them add larger l3 cache more easily which can mitigate that. For instance the new ryzen cpus crush intel on gcc compile time benchmarks due to the large l3.
I keep telling people that the person who applies the patches needs to be qualified, paid, AND TRAINED just as much as the guy who wrote the fancy paper on maintaining security, and that development and infrastructure need to be more simplified, otherwise security will likely not be implemented properly... companies rarely heed the warning. And that leads to breaches that PR teams get paid a LOT within companies fight furiously to squash.
I am not sure how you interpreted it to mean "let's focus on diets". If somebody points out a problem it doesn't mean it's the problem. As far as I am aware no serious policy says let's focus on X. There is no one single low hanging fruit in climate problem. It would require big changes across the board (land use included).

> While Hacker News is great at protecting the community from disruptive individuals, it tends to fall down when protecting unpopular individuals against the community turned mob.

Isn't every community -barring a few wild west's- like that? One Usenet, someone with an unpopular opinion would end up in people's kill file. On IRC, someone with an unpopular opinion would end up on people's ignore or would get kicked off the channel or klined off the server. Except for the kick and kline the effect of a kill file or ignore is akin to a global shadow ban.

The solution to the problem you mentioned is that unpopular opinions with merit will find their way to become eventually popular enough that they're adopted. Whereas unpopular opinions without merit eventually end up existing on the cesspits of the Internet. Because somewhere on the Internet, any person can spout their unpopular opinion. The question is, who reads it? Is it so much different from a shadow ban?
I've talked to a seasoned VP of Eng who hated the concept (specifically of the VP of Eng reporting to the CTO). Essentially, a technical CTO would meddle in what the VP of Eng's team is doing leading to a power conflict between the two. I feel it'd work but only if the CTO is actually acting like a CTO instead of a glorified tech lead. That means focusing on strategy and the outward communications of the company rather than technical details.
It's right there in the article.
I googled oom_adj and found https://dev.to/rrampage/surviving-the-linux-oom-killer-2ki9

I run the script to display the oom_score_adj of the processes running on my laptop. It's 0 for all of them except the blink based browers (including Slack). For those processes it's either 200 or 300. It means that they'll be the first ones to go. Apparently their developers played nice with the system.
Arbitrage is a foundational aspect of capitalism there is no legal argument to be made against squatters unless laws are changed. I agree it would be more fair if the domain registry could predict the future value of domains and charge more for them to the investors.
the new ryzens will compile code a lot faster for one. we might need to start learning more about optimizations that are amd specific.
To be frank those defensible streets themselves were an older agenda back when one of the functions of city was defensibility - in the service of the same elite.

They were always for the purpose. While there are rightful aspects to complain about the displacement sanitation and boulevards were good things even if their motives were ulterior.

Sometimes I do wonder if companies would take security more seriously if the convention was to disclose publicly without delay. My guess is they would instead just pay more for breach insurance, or try harder to shoot the messenger.

EDIT: breach, not beach
It’s not possible to feed a small family of 3-4 without having acreage. I’ve done container gardens (20-30 containers) to 20x20 plots. It was nice to have supplemental fresh veggies but it was expensive and not sustainable. It was a hobby so the expense was worth it.
Its interesting to contrast the two approaches taken by london and paris.

Barring the great fire (and I suspect there will have been similar events in paris as well) There was no one architect or style that completely flattened the victorian london.

The strand, which is now a large paris style boulevard was a semi-slum/porn publishing district. Around the houses or parliament was a spectacularly large slum.

https://publicdomainreview.org/2016/06/29/the-secret-history... (warning Victorian porn. NSFW)

This did mean that in the 1920-40s there was a massive expansion into the "suburbs" to escape the slums, poverty and diseases of central london. This is a decline that has only really just reversed in the last 20 years. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demography_of_London)

The crucial thing was that "social" housing was placed in every borough of the city, not just on the outskirts. The highest density of social housing is in southwark, which is opposite both the houses of parliament and the "city". I imagine its the equivalent of building ~80k houses exclusively for the poor in the 6th and 7th arrondissement

Interesting parallel between "running amok" and female hysteria -- both were believed to be caused by evil spirits:

"They believed that amok was caused by the hantu belian, which was an evil tiger spirit that entered one’s body and caused the heinous act" [ibid]

Of course, the very word "hysteria" has its origin in the Greek for "uterus", and in ancient times the belief was that the womb was responsible for a number of female behaviors. It progressed to include demonic forces:

"Through the Middle Ages another cause of dramatic symptoms could be found: demonic possession. It was thought that demoniacal forces were attracted to those who were prone to melancholy, particularly single women and the elderly" [0]

Reminder: Way back when the AT&T 'secret rooms' that enabled the NSA to tap all traffic were revealed, we learned that the NSA relies heavily upon an extremely questionable legal opinion written by their own lawyers which says that communications do not count as 'collected' or 'intercepted' until a HUMAN operator reads the plaintext. That means no amount of automated processing, machine learning, statistical analysis, filtering, profiling, etc run on your communications or its metadata amounts to your communications being 'intercepted' as far as they are concerned. They know this legal opinion is dicey, and they will do absolutely anything, including dropping cases entirely, to avoid having it tested in court.

You say this idea is new and radical. Where would you say this idea comes from?

In this case, what other things do companies generally "care" about?
Has there ever been a lot of friction as far as how quickly someone could get into a car?

Let's say it took someone 60 seconds in the past, is 10 seconds really that big of a change as far as committing the crime goes?
Can you expand on this a bit? Who is disallowing whom to not name what? From my first reading of your comment, it seems like Intel is pushing partners to not disclose their relationship with AMD? Is that not, like, almost cartel-like behavior?
But you can't start the car with a hammer and drive away, which is something the article talked about as well.

The article doesn't support the headline. I don't doubt there are vulnerabilities, but the article didn't deliver.

It’s more complex then you are making it.

I won’t replace parking with units unless that makes the building more valuable overall. If there is a strong demand for parking spots, the existing units are likely to lose value by having no parking. And I’d also have to shell out cash upfront to compensate them.
There's also fabrication cost and yield which factors into the pricing and profitability of Intel and AMD products. In this respect Intel is competing against TSMC and GlobalFoundries (for the IO die).
To add a touch more information to the chorus of "both" replies:

Intel's development process is such that a lot of the components of the chips were expected to be introduced on 10nm. With 10nm in such production trouble, these components mostly weren't backported to 14nm design. As a result, Intel's chip design has mostly stagnated as a result of its 10nm fabrication issues.
Yes, I would only recommend it for the monopoly platform companies (Google/Facebook/Twitter/etc.) and backbone companies (ISPs, Cloudflare!, etc.)
Polygraphs also perform no better than coin flips in determining whether a person is lying. They're still used throughout government to make security clearance decisions. I would be careful assuming that if this technology is ineffective that will translate into it not becoming a lynchpin in their organizations.
The funny thing is that discourse here isn't particularly rational and is only tends towards dispassionate because a little hint of passion makes lots of people click the ▼.
Good point. That is concerning.

The value of the owner’s asset (the building) is based on more than just the building itself, but also on the surrounding area and the quality of life.

It doesn’t help an owner if they build units nobody wants to live in because of shadows, no parking, etc.

On my Mercedes key I always double click the lock button which entirely disabled the keyless features until I use the key again.

Now the question is - is this actually safer? If some thieves arrive at my house to steal my car and their relay gadget doesn't work, are they going to give up, or are they going to break in and threaten me for the key? Now that's a question I don't like to think about too much.
And drivers are probably already somewhere around minimum wage a lot of the time. Recession or not, there's some price floor under which even the relatively desperate are not going to drive for willingly.

Reproducing something like this using cheap sensors would require some hardware acumen, but isn't unfeasible. Most industrial cameras, even cheap ones, have external triggers/clocks with nanosecond latency.

> middle-man firm who are creating the security and trying to unload it.

If the investment bank only facilitates the transaction, then the key incentive that could tilt the transaction toward having a sense of urgency, and as a result, indifference to the rating accuracy would be the personal gain of the individual/team attempting to process the transaction.

If that assumption holds, would tying in a performance based return to the banker who sells the security, balance it? That way they also have incentive to make sure the rating is as accurate as possible?

If so, then it seems that it would probably be resolved through legislation, because otherwise it appears to be an intractable coordination problem. Unless including a return for the seller based on the performance is something that occurs in the industry for other types of securities.
