DoB will have to deal with some problems, especially bad actors; people will squat on domains, register typos (fscebook.com) or even bitflips (fabebook.com, b is one bitflip from c). Malware owners will run their C&C servers on domains.

Malicious domains will require someone removing them or blocking them even, unless you want the DoB namespace to turn into a cesspool of malware, phishing and nazis. Not something the average person wants.
That sounds like something that could be solved by having crates.io provide a curated list of common popular crates for certain features. That is, this seems to be mostly a documentation issue.

I'm not sure how much you know about Heroku, but their runtime environment is based around so-called buildpacks, which provide the required executables, packages, configuration, etc. for various languages (ruby, php, js, ...). Once you push code to Heroku's git remote it will analyze your code and select the proper buildpack to run the code on.

So you are absolutely right that you can't simply go from an app.json file to a local development system in one step, as you (very likely) don't have the required infrastructure on your system.
I'm curious as to how you get your images built. I'd love to remove the over reliance on docker in my team, but the sticking point seems to be building and storing images. I know that Kubernetes can run with different runtimes, and that docker images can be oci compliant, but it's a hard sell to ask everyone to try something different in production when they do everything else with docker. Do you have a workflow that could help with that sort of thing?

Sounds like Stockpile - They sell gift cards for stocks.
I'm kind of annoyed by the amount of articles explaining this, but nobody cares that a vast amount of developers have no technical skills whatsoever, but since they're hired by other non-technical people, nobody notices, and they somehow "perform well" in those environments.
Why do we only give disproportionate representation to people on the basis of their zip code?

Why not give disproportional representation to them on the basis of their race, or religion, or sexual orientation, or on whether or not they prefer big, or little-endian notation? Surely, it would only be appropriate that politicians should have cross-demographic appeal to win?

Every argument for why we should give extra influence to voters living in particular zip codes is just as valid, as any argument for giving extra influence to voters based on some other semi-arbitrary distinction.

Rural people have special, marginalized concerns, and are outnumbered by urban voters? Great. So do LGBT people, for example.

You don't get extra consideration for your vote for being a ______. Why should you get it on the basis of geography?
I would be willing to bet that you can do everything you need to entirely with in Postgres/psql/PGPLSQL.

Not saying you're wrong but you're way too confident on your stance when most people don't even have all the facts aside from cherry-picked bits from biased media (regardless of side). I have been following the protests since the beginning and I seem to remember things were peaceful until bad actors (violent police and hired thugs) came into the picture. There has also been evidence of false flag operations so how would you even know how to pick apart the real protestors from the provocateurs?
If I protest in Hong Kong and travel to China, will I be able to come home?
No, it was more like the final straw that set all of the events in motion. It started with the Taiwanese matter that mainland China took advantage of to assert control. Mainland has been actively working to integrate Hong Kong into China for quite some time now both on the cultural side by encouraging Chinese to move to Hong Kong, and on the political side by removing complete authority away from Hong Kong.
If you have ever visited both places you can easily see that they are 2 separate cultures. Hong Kong does not want to be China, they want to govern themselves. This is what these issues are about. China is increasingly trying to assert control while Hong Kong wants to be sovereign.

> How do I know? There are countries where it is normal that both parents work to provide for their household and there are countries when it is mostly male parent that does the same with same effect.

I don't understand how this supposedly proves that e.g. male single providers could work only 4 hours a day instead of 8. Care to explain? As an argument against both parents working it would make more sense...
> is obviously going to be an acute response of some sort?

That's not how science works. They don't just act on something because someone thinks "it's obvious". They need hard evidence because the body is very complex and requires specific experiments to show anything. It's not about what get who suprised or not surprised, this is about establishing a definitive scientific truth. And there can absolutely be a substance that you introduce into the body and there is no meaningful effect. (You can probably always measure some effect, but it could be so small that it doesn't affect anything of value.) (no downvote from me fyi)
Clinton's internal polling showed they were in trouble in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

My son is 10 months old. In the last month I've been able to start jogging, playing football (soccer), and I'm hoping in the next couple of weeks to restart Gymnastics and Olympic lifting training.

I don't know how much weight I've put on, but I certainly don't enjoy how I feel and look now.

Being able to exercise again has been a major milestone for me.

So...did these freelancers not communicate with each other at all? When I saw the first screenshot on the page, of the newest game, I thought it was composed entirely of assets purchased from an asset store and built in RPG Maker and I expected the body of the article to be centered on why it's ok to buy assets when what you're focusing on is gameplay. I feel like this dev is really being taken advantage of by his cadre of artists because the other games on the page don't actually look bad. Maybe a hair generic, but not bad. The newest one, though, damn. That looks like someone's homework.
Kids are better today than we were as kids. They drink less, they smoke less, they take drugs less often, they have fewer unplanned pregnancies, etc etc.

At the moment we don't think vaping turns non-smokers into smokers. But it's complicated, especially if there are companies that are marketing vaping to young non-smokers.

I personally think vaping is a useful public health measure, but I recognise the very many years of terrible behaviour from tobacco companies and it feels like light-touch regulation doesn't work.
Sure, they don't need to have terrible wages. Do they though? Are daycare workers a healthy mix of educated men and women with a lot of other economic opportunities but choose to be daycare workers because of the pay or emotional rewards?
If you were being heavily down-voted (flagged) here on HN you'd get steadily greyed out and then just disappear behind a [flagged] status. Looking at your comment history, this doesn't appear to be the case.

Even if the above is not true, I am guessing that your posts are simply being ignored by many people. Walls of text with no capitalization, and extremely long sentences are very unapproachable. This will naturally push you down below comments that get up-voted.
This reminds me so much of the Simpsons episode with Homer's long lost brother, Herb (he invents a machine to translate baby talk).

I think, from my own experience, babies learn to communicate in a two way fashion - they try noises and responses with their caregivers, and when the caregivers respond in an agreeable fashion, the baby stores that bit of communication away to try again later (and possibly reinforce).

So I think some of their communication is learned (signals for positive/negative), and quite specific to the baby-parent pair, while some will be instinctual (e.g. I imagine the excited kicking to be related to an adrenal surge or something, and early-infant crying is definitely an instinctual distress signal)
I think this narrative is very misleading.

They did complain a lot about how the CCP plunged the country into the largest famine in history because of their incompetence. It was this incompetence that led to the rise of Deng Xiaoping. Mao then launched the Cultural Revolution during which different factions in the CCP fought with each other rather than "keep their head down". At Tiananmen Square in 1976 millions of people, peasants and rich, shouted slogans attacking Mao and the Gang of Four. Deng Xiaoping then launched the economic miracle by reducing CCP involvement in the economy .

To say that the history of modern China is a long, stable period where the people never spoke up and built a powerhouse economy by listening to the directives of the all knowing CCP is historical revisionism at best.
I've already been banned from reddit, please don't ban me from this site.

It is not factual that fraud happens on a scale the warrants disenfranchising voters. If you advocate for disenfranchising voters without providing any sort of argument that legitimizes doing so, then yes, I absolutely am accusing you of wanting to disenfranchise voters for no reason other than to fear monger. You're the TSA of airport security. The WMDs of war. The daily weather of climate change. The fucking pizza of sex trafficking.

You should be banned from this site for spreading this fucking nonsense.
The amount of wealth here is absolute bonkers massive. Nobody realizes it. Sure there is a majority population living in shacks by the side of the road, but there is a huge huge huge number of people (and growing) in big houses and driving fancy cars. Even some of those shacks are owned by really wealthy people. They just haven't learned to show it off and they don't care about upgrading.

I've seen it all, really. I've stayed in the fanciest hotels and the only place in the smallest village. I've been in such remote places that you don't see a single foreigner for days on end. What you describe is everywhere here. But fact is, you can't drive 100m anywhere in this country without seeing a house/shack with a baby (or ten) in front of it.

The issues you point out about infrastructure is simply that the govt doesn't care about those things. The rich get richer and the poorer get poorer. I don't know of any other society that revolves around 'me me me me' as much as this one.
Furthermore: Ohio is the single strongest predictor of the presidential election winner. Ohio is the only state where the local winner has matched the overall winner since 1960.
You're being a little imprecise with your terminology here, which may have contributed to folks thinking that this was not a comment which moved the discussion forward. The ratings agencies (Moodys et al) rate debt, including particular securitization pools and/or corporate borrowers, but not consumer borrowers. FICO produces an algorithm which lenders use to rate consumer borrowers based on records retained by credit reporting agencies (CRAs).

You, as a lender, can't call Equifax (a CRA) and say "Hey you said 690 but I think really 725." Their information says what it says regarding tradelines (the fact that they were delinquent on a CC 2 years ago is a fact on record that you can't alter), and you have no easy interface to modify that (though you can, and you do, encourage customers in marginal situations to do their own work on their credit).

You ask why don't banks defraud the GSEs on a retail level for marginal loans. The short and perhaps unsatisfactory reason is that if the GSE is dissatisfied with a particular loan they'll put it back on you (you have to repurchase rather than securitizing) and that if you make a practice of this you're going to go to jail.

Anecdotally, every time I look at my credit score I cringe The video game player in me understands that being told one has a score one wants to increase it, but, do you care about this number? Why? If you don't anticipate buying a house in the next 6 months it is all but irrelevant to you. If that is in your near term plans, then you have a fairly straightforward path to increasing it. (Stop paying off earlier than the reporting date, which can result in tradelines looking like they're dormant and therefore not counted towards your score.)

Furthermore, every time I've ever applied for credit I end up with scores (and offers of credit) far in excess of the numbers...

Yep, because the offers of credit are an actual fact about the world and the credit score is a point-in-time snapshot of a model which predicts a model that partially influences a decision that might be relevant to your interest. In the case where reality and your model differ, reality takes precedence, so why do you care what the model outputs?

What is the proof? That the domain owner signed it with a certain key?

The implementation could easily change to not require DNS. You only need to find a single live node to bootstrap, so hardcoding a bunch of high-quality nodes works perfectly fine.

Also you don't need the "Where is IPFS?" DNS query to be anonymous in the first place.
From Cory Doctorow's Walkaway:

Seth said: "Insert tragedy of the commons here."

Natalie put her hands up. "You know, I've heard the term 'tragedy of the commons' like a thousand times and I've never actually looked it up. What is it? Something to do with poor people being tragic?"

"That's commoners," Hubert, Etc said. Something was awake and loose inside him now. He wanted to kick the pizza off the coffee table and use it for a stage. "Commons. Common land that belongs to no one. Villages had commons where anyone could bring their livestock for a day's grazing. The tragedy part is that if the land isn't anyone's, then someone will come along and let their sheep eat until there's nothing but mud. Everyone knows that that bastard is on the way, so they might as well be that bastard. Better that sheep belonging to a nice guy like you should fill their bellies than the grass going to some selfish dickhead's sheep."
"Sounds like bullshit to me."

"Oh, it is," Hubert, Etc said. The thing was moving in his guts, setting his balls and face tingling. "It's more than mere bullshit. It's searing, evil, world-changing bullshit. The solution to the tragedy of the commons isn't to get a cop to make sure sociopaths aren't overgrazing the land, or shunning anyone who does it, turning him into a pariah. The solution is to let a robber-baron own the land that used to be everyone's, because once he's running it for profit, he'll take exquisite care to generate profit forever."

"That's the tragedy of the commons? A fairy tale about giving public assets to rich people to run as personal empires because, that way they'll make sure they're better managed than they would be if we just made up some rules? God, my dad must love that story."
I am wondering: why so many news about Japan on this site? Do many readers live here?

If you want a system to appeal to a wide spectrum of the electorate, there are a large number of dimensions that are far better then geographic address. Gender, race, sexual orientation, religion, etc.

For some reason, though, I never see supporters of the electoral college feel that it's right and proper to give equal political power to social minority groups (Only geographical minority groups. As if where you live is more important to your interests than who you are.)
What's kinda missing in the whole article is that the member expression is actually map. The example is {x | generator(x) & filter(x) & filter(x)} while you could actually {f(x) | generator(x) ...} which is basically map(f,xs). The shown languages do support expressions in this component.

In the management sciences this is one argument for diversity. If you have a complex environment, then your team has to mirror that complexity. But the whole thing based on system theory, so the basic assumption is that there is no direct access to the internal parts of the system, that is difficult if one assume that they are human actors.

always interesting to see the differences in commute times per vehicle. Where I am now, it's just over 7 miles to work, cycling is generally faster than the bus, bus is much faster than car (bus lane for > 50% of the journey).
I see - so the idea behind checking in a Procfile is that you can run this locally using "heroku local", but the idea behind a app.json is that you explicitly can't?

The Procfile describing your application given some base installation (e.g. PHP 7.3), the app.json describing in this case nothing in particular?

Any application requires both a base environment and instructions for application deployment. And that is how the Dockerfile for rss-bridge is constructed, too.

So what besides vendor lock-in is the advantage of Heroku's approach?
regarding the size of the bottle opening, my understanding is that the automatic sorting machines at the recyclery 'work better' on bottles with a narrow opening because they are easier to push around with jets of air, but they could also be concerned that other items will get trapped inside a wide mouth plastic container and confound the sorting machine...
The answer is: because the author of the tool is comfortable in the language, wrote it for their use case and have NPM and node already set up. They were nice enough to share it so other people can use it too or port it to their favorite language.
The OpenVPN configuration uses AES-128-GCM as the cipher, which itself is fine but the website claims it is using AES-256.

More concerning is the 'Tor VPN' and bridge being offered. The Tor bridge here is not a proper bridge, instead the SOCKS port is being exposed on a public IP rather than the usual 127.0.0.1. SOCKS is an unencrypted protocol so everything being sent to the bridge is exposed on the wire, and your ISP can trivially see that you are connecting to a VPN over it. This is dangerous and misleading - Tor even warns you that the protocol is not encrypted when you expose the SOCKS port publicly. Real Tor bridges are simply relays not listed in the consensus file. Connections using them are still encrypted using TLS. The website incorrectly claims that by using the VPN over Tor configuration files, you are masking your VPN connection from your ISP.

This free VPN is so misleading that I felt the need to make a HN account just to write about it.
No, they really worked less hours including those things, and it has been studied a lot. In fact, a lot of the work was those things precisely.

(Not that there's anything great to come home dead tired from a 10 hour day at the office + commute, and then have the "amazing" convenience to "order food for dinner").

You can still see it in societies that don't have our lifestyles. Go to a blue zone like in Ikaria (where people live in much longer age than average, often reaching 90-100). People tend to their farms some time of the season, do things leisurely, take noon naps, stay up late with friends to eat and drink (late as in, 2-3 am is not uncommon), and so on. Giving less fucks seems a major factor in those "blue zones" (I've also researched a similar one in Italy).

Heck, several french farmers have told me how their grown children in supposedly fancy city jobs (programming, banking, etc) work twice as much as they ever did, and still have a less enjoyable lifestyle.
Speed is the answer
Kata works pretty well. You set it as a runtime for docker and it gives a fantastic illusion that the container isn't different from any other docker container but uses a KVM VM with minimal hardware to run the container. It starts in under 200ms (and faster if you make it use firecracker), etc.

The problem your parent is pointing out is that AWS instances don't support nested virtualization (and it sounds like neither does Digital Ocean) so on both of these cloud providers you can't use something like kata containers or any nested VMs. GCP does support nested virtualization in any VM and aws `.metal` instance types do as well, but are rather expensive. It's really a shame that even with the new EC2 kvm-based hypervisor they still didn't enable nested virtualization for most instance types, otherwise we'd definitely be making heavy use of kata containers.

I wish Oracle hadn't bought Ravello Systems and that Ravello open sourced their binary translation stuff that made nested VMs possible in EC2 without the full overhead of software virtualization. Unfortunately, there are no open source implementations of similar software that I know of. Their blog is now hosted on oracle's site: https://blogs.oracle.com/ravello/nested-virtualization-with-...
Development time isn't slower when you factor in all the bugs it saves you from dealing with down the road when you're either wonder what is the type of an object or why something isn't working during runtime that a compiler could have caught.
