A lot were, they were just in Vietnam and not the US.

It’s certainly not the case that they had more access to mental health.

Hence back to the media part. Society / culture changes... 60s was a wave of anti-violence by youth. That likely had carry over effects. What was on TV and the methods of consuming information was totally different. You also didn’t have so much contradictory (dis)information going around.

Given where we’re at, something needs to give or we’ll just continue to spiral. This report is a great micro-example of how environmental stimulus affects drastic action.
They have chat via Messages on the phone, and it worked great for me the one question I had. Go to Wallet app > Apple Card > ..., then tap "Message"

I guess if you've had an issue that requires a voice call, though, that wouldn't matter. But I was able to resolve my issue in about 2 minutes via iMessages, which was a zillion times better than when I've had to deal with PNC.
I wonder if Jack is a victim of a SIM port hack?
For some composers, I really enjoy hearing substantially different interpretations of a piece. For example, some violin solos are interpreted in a super precise mathematical way when someone else might pour on the legato sugar when the transcript allows for it. It can radically change the overall feeling of the piece, even while maintaining note-for-note accuracy.

I live for those moments, and learn a lot more deeply about composition by digging into different interpretations of pieces that I enjoy most.

Personally, I think it should play a part of early music learning for everyone. Opening up collections like this leads to the ability to learn music at the performance level, instead of just a cursory sprinkling of famous themes played only one way.
IMHO, for the same reason many of them are interested in Buddhism. I think many middle-upper class people struggle to understand why they are not happy in spite of their material wealth. Buddhism, Stoicism, and other philosophies offer answers for how one can find happiness/satisfaction in life, irrespective of one's material possessions or status. I also think that Stoicism in particular may currently be popular because, in comparison to eastern philosophies, it is more grounded in traditional Western thought and may be easier for Westerners to understand. At least compared to my efforts to understand Taoism, for example.
> That's not true, though. U.S. laws and their enforcement are extremely punitive compared to most other western countries.

That's not true, though. The US is a lot less punitive regarding cars compared to most other western countries.
Capital One definitely does this (I used to work there and when we rolled it out it was considered quite innovative).

The fact that the account was used to spread racist & nazi propaganda should be a clue; timing it for 1pm on a Friday afternoon suggests a degree of sophistication.
>The question (as I read it) is "does human life have more value than the freedoms afforded to us by constitutional decree?"

I disagree with this formulation of the question. It isn't either or. For a lot of people, that "freedom afforded to us by constitutional degree" is what allows to protect the value of their own human life in the case of an immediate danger, as well as that of people close to them.

The third sentence of the article says "physical titanium Apple Card", so I guess you didn't read the article either. ;)
I really loved this ELI5, thank you.
Maybe, I don't know. I wasn't alive in 1970s and I don't know what those discussions are. I know that the writer here is addressing the concerns that feminism is driving people from the scifi fandom. That seems equivalent to the concerns I see in modern day? I might totally be wrong though.
You don’t have the data to conclude that it doesn’t work well. We could very well be commenting on an exception out of millions of perfectly executed automated fraud detections.

Ask HN: Has anyone succesfully recovered a hacked FB account?
My account got hacked months ago, I was able to change my password shortly after luckily. However, when I login now it always asks me for ID. After submitting it I get a success recovery email with a url to finish the process but the URL is always invalid! What makes it worse is it was hacked via the recovery email which I can't login to remove! Curious if the recovery process is in fact broken or is just me?
What about finishing the thread? https://twitter.com/wongmjane/status/1167463077748436993 seems to imply entire files are uploaded.

That’s obviously what happened. They had prepared the wrong product. It was not just sending a product to the wrong place, they had created something that no one had ever asked for.
> Google's classic canned response of "We've confirmed we're right, we will not tell you why and this is the last reply you'll receive" is one of the most infuriating things I can imagine.

For non-negligible damages, heading immediately to small claims court (given you live in a sensible jurisdiction) seems to be the easiest thing in that case. Even if Google's ultimately in the right, they typically can't just ignore that entirely.

From a decade ago:

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/why-google-bothered-to-ap_b_2...
The salient fact is that the user was easily able to contact customer support, find out exactly what the issue was, provide documentation showing what had happened, and appeal an adverse decision all the way to the top.

This is significantly different than "we won't tell you what the issue is and we won't even accept communications from you".
The more interesting use to me would be to generate the look of the avatar based on the person’s face. Distinct avatars provide useful visual cues in software like Slack, Pivotal Tracker etc. but many people just don’t like taking photos. Maybe the author of this post can provide insight: Does this implementation generate the avatar’s visual configuration or is this only concerned with dynamic facial expressions?
I continue to be surprised that no one seems to be discussing the fact the card is rotated 180° from normal. The EMV chip is in the right and the mag stripe is on the bottom.

An odd decision. I’d love to know the reason behind it.
It's kind of sad how much nuance and meaning modern humans are able to crush down into words like "religious practices". It makes me wonder what parts of our present world will be compressed or misunderstood or glossed over by people in 1000+ years
Yeps, definitely, agree.

But CVEs are intended for specialists. "Users" don't know about CVE.
Yeah I started there. I was given a phone number to call, which I called. I was then told somebody would call me to resolve the issue within two days. Five days later I haven't heard a peep. Thankfully I'm not relying on the card for anything important.

This just confirms my feeling lately that I can't afford to be locked into their ecosystem.
Thanks. I've never encountered either of those issues, possibly because I'm on Android. Specifically, the photo quick selection is instant for me.
Same. No discoloration or anything of that sort here.
Just another user? Dont think the CEO of twitter is just another user. Funny he did not do 2FA tho. hah!
FAANG interviews aside, I find the idea of having a mental model before you write code extremely helpful. It's a lot easier to understand the purpose of individual functions and how things should interface with each other if you do. It won't be perfect at first, but the more you can get right in the first stab the better.

Your ability to build that mental model depends on both your experience/skill and the complexity of the problem. For simple problems, a more senior engineer might be able to come up with a mental model instantly because it's similar to lots of things they've done before. For really complex problems, it probably takes everyone a long time to build the correct mental model and you'd want to balance that with what you can figure out by diving into the implementation.

My guess would be that the interviewers' line of thinking is that if you couldn't build a mental model for a problem quickly, that means you're not proficient with problems like that. Which is probably true, but opens up the question of whether the interview is testing the right type of problem, of course.
Did they really not chamfer the card? A metal 90 degree angle like that can cut skin like a knife. Any machinist would know that you have to break those edges.

That kind of saddens me as well. How can a GUI be this clunky and confusing? Why would an application mainly for children use the "put every option on screen and in the one uncontextual contex menu" atitude? I think it's low hanging fruit to create the best educational and entertaining environment for children, ask 4.99 on an appstore and be set for some time.
In my experience, that typically needs to be enabled.

Different distros of course have different defaults.

> This is just pretty standard text for any metal credit card

FWIW I have four different metal cards and have not received this warning with any of them. In the case of the Apple Card, I'd say it's due more to the fact that the card is white than that it's metal.
Reddit & Video games
Even in Australia where contactless is ubiquitous I still need to use my card in about 5% of transactions. Often it's the design of the machine that makes it hard to complete with your phone.

And then if you keep failing to complete it will ask you to insert/swipe a physical card.
Maybe Google can´t do that because they are the ones doing the scummy thing.

I personally know 2 cases of people banned from Google, in one case they were actually infringement (they made an app using copyrighted characters), and in the other it was the same case stated elsewhere - grandmother clicked repeatedly on the ads thinking she was helping her grandson, and he got banned from AdSense forever.
How ergodicity reimagines economics for the benefit of us all
If its like every other metal credit card, it's a stamped piece of metal that comes from sheet stock. Then they glue the metal front onto a plastic backing that has the magstripe.
California advances bill that would 'lead the world' on gig worker rights
And what was the disposable income in 1908 when the median us income was $500. If buying a $30k car is out of reach for a family making $70k a year, then I find it exceedingly hard to believe that a family making $500 in 1908 would be able to afford an $800 car.

Microeconomic comparisons are very easy to tweak to achieve a conclusion determined a priori. Some goods and services like electronics, air travel, communication, and transport become orders of magnitude cheaper over the course of the 20th century. Others like healthcare and housing on average get more expensive, especially in the latter half of the 20th century. If you want to show lowering costs of living, weight the model towards the former. If you want to show a higher cost of living, weight the model towards the latter.
Vulnerability in their 2fa or did @jack just not have it turned on?
It may not be counterfeit but if Google has a wealth of data indicating that this usage pattern results in fraud then it might as well be the digital form of counterfeit.
In my experience its purely random if/when someone will care about that. You just have to do a lot of interviews and if you're still coming up with near optimal solutions in the allotted time you should be okay.

I also do not think Senior Engineers have better mental models of these code trivia questions than Junior Engineers do on average. Seniors spend more time on architecture and facilitating Juniors to be more productive so I dk.

I have never been in an interview where piecing out the problem solving and debugging outside of whatever the IDE/editor of choice was frowned upon.

Maybe they just wanted to see you solve the solution in the pair programming window and thought you were copy/pasting your solutions from someone that was helping you off screen.
When chrome slows down for me, it normally means I need to run clear browsing history, delete cookies, cache, logins, etc. I have modern hardware, on both linux/windows same issue.

But using res on reddit and click "show images" you can tell chrome isn't as fast as other browsers, firefox/brave are visually faster/smoother in scrolling with pics. Hell, even firefox focus is faster on android. But I like chrome addons and sync with my mobile, its my daily driver. Normally I never notice, but a quick clean if starts acting out fixes it for me.

I feel you're splitting some sort of grammatical and/or semantic hair there.

Like, for instance, what is the difference between "obesity is unattractive" and "the fat are unnatractive", really.

In "altruism is unattractive", it looks like there is a rhetorical device being used known as metonymy: referring to a subject indirectly by naming an attribute or adjunct of that subject in its place; it in fact means "altruists are unattractive".

Looking up the hashtag the attackers used, I came across this blog post alleging the problem being AT&T's: https://www.treyexgaming.com/index.php/2019/08/26/how-the-sa...

Food for thought.

Regardless of whether the alleged source of insecurity is what happened here, SMS-based authentication was a mistake.
Are you sure it's printed? It looks laser engraved in the same way that custom iPod messages are. Doesn't look like it can rub off to me.
Bad PR and popularity backlash is what corporations fear the most. We should wait for such things to happen (and then be quickly fixed because of the name) to some really popular figure who will make it public, then grab popcorn and watch Google, or any other corporation that screws "normal" customers, produce spectacular stunts to escape the unavoidable negative press.
"The Apple Card has been raked through the coals over this support document because it is not recommended for use near leather (the most common material used in wallets) or denim (one of the most common outerwear materials). Nor is it recommended to be touching any other credit cards. Nor is it recommended to be in a pocket or bag containing loose change, keys, or any other kind of potentially-abrasive items."

It's the Happy Fun Ball of cards. I'm honestly impressed.
Not really.

Market forces drove Boeing to rush out a more fuel efficient 737. Even absent regulatory incentives, market forces drive them to want to deliver a 737-dimensioned plane, because a huge selling point for the NG and MAX is that they're still compatible with decades' old infrastructure at rarely-upgraded regional airports.

Bolting large enough engines to deliver the market-desired fuel efficiency on the market-desired airframe dimensions of the MAX necessarily required mounting them so far forward that the entire airframe is fundamentally prone to pulling into a stall, and correcting that is why MCAS exists.

Certification costs are far from the only reason Boeing has never sat down and designed a successor for 737, even though they've done so for numerous other planes -- half the problem with the 737 is that its engineering achilles heel (the incredibly low ground clearance) is simultaneously a key feature to a large portion of the customer base. Correcting it means all of those customers finally upgrading their ground infrastructure, which leads to Airbus suddenly being a viable competitor for those routes.
If you're inside the process, as the LD_PRELOAD interceptor mentioned in the article is, then in theory you could try to get the address of the binary's main function or some other symbol that you expect to be exported, and scan down in until you find the lowest mapped page, and then store that address somewhere that you could know of in advance. You could scan down and detect the first unmapped page by clever use of system calls that return EFAULT as a possible return code.
I was thinking about the sync you get with a premium membership (https://support.1password.com/sync-options/), but I guess the thread is about syncing with Dropbox. It's quite an old thread, this paper suggests they use the "secure remote password" protocol for memberships, so perhaps the master key isn't stored for that: https://1password.com/files/1Password%20for%20Teams%20White%...

It's definitely stored for Touch ID/fingerprint 1password access though (https://support.1password.com/touch-id-security-ios/).

One of their employees wrote about it here: https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/106629/ios-secu.... His response is basically that OS-level 0days aren't in their threat model, so they're continuing their usual bug-fixing routine. And it's true, nothing can really stop a rootkit from sniffing passwords as they're being used, besides winning the anti-rootkit race. Perhaps 1password could have a little more explanation of the insecurity of using Touch ID / Face ID though rather than simply saying it's as secure as possible.
Historians proper get so caught up on the ramp, but by any metric they seem ridiculously unfeasible.

I don't know why they are so quick to throw out the Herodotus Machine, where you rock the block back and forth and place shims under it. They don't require lots or resource or technology, or a backbreaking amount of labor, and two people can move a single block - taking as many breaks as they need to. And you know, it's how the locals told Herodotus it was done!

As opposed to a ramp that's bigger than the pyramid itself, take an insane amount of uninterrupted work to haul up, and there is no archaeological evidence to support.

Edit: Here's an example that seems to fit Herodotus's description: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hLQoD3Cwag
I see no reason to believe that anyone sophisticated enough to design a pyramid wouldn't be sophisticated enough to stack shims.
Does hardware allow that?
Did you spend 2 seconds checking out facts before posting this? Clearly not. Go hold an Apple Card. You'll discover that the edges are not sharp. Indeed, even if they were initially sharp, which they're not, they wouldn't remain sharp for long. Titanium is rather soft and does not hold an edge, which is why there are no titanium knives.

Bank accounts and credit cards work very differently in making payments. Getting an ACH transaction disputed is far more time consuming and difficult. Fat fingering a bank account number number and not triple checking it for an ACH payment isn't something I would just shrug off.

"A small minority of citizens are essentially saying "we want the law to be this way, and if it isn't, we will murder you". But for some reason we've collectively decided that no, it's actually normal for people to dictate the law under threat of violence."

On the other hand, the moral majority can make the law and then murder people who don't follow it. This is called "democracy working normally".

I quit my job as a developer (because I knew I would get fired if I kept my lifestyle the same), broke the lease on my apartment and moved to my parents house for a month and got a doctor to give me suboxone. Am I a lot happier person now? For sure l. But I’m still addicted to opiates. Really the only difference is that now my opiates cost $100/month instead of $6000/month. If I could have gotten heroin for the same price I would never have quit, and honestly, probably feel better.
Why would it be? It's ridiculous that more than half the places I go still don't accept contactless payments. Almost all of them have readers that accept it, and half of this group has a little sticky note in the chip reader that says "SORRY NO CHIP." Seriously?
That isn't what I meant. Admittedly, I can see why it was read that way, so let me clarify the larger point:

As a PM, you need to listen to your entire community, not one person. Whether they politely request something and wait, or whether they are excessively persistent, that is still just one request. And unless you only have a handful of customers, you need some consensus from the entire community that the request is a good one before saying "Yes", and getting to work on it.

Two decades ago I used to bling out with Versace and other labels on items that were guaranteed to only last one season. I gave that up back then. I'm not about to start doing it with "gift cards" now. Trendy is such a wasteful way to live.

If you need to throw money away for status, I can think of far more beneficial ways to do it than a poorly designed payment card that scratches and stains too easily.
