Having a home of your own is very important, you can’t imagine the hardship of not being able to get a home due to a bad credit, I seriously needed a good home for my family but couldn’t get one because of some missed and late payments, with a lot of inquiries, collections an eviction in my report. My cards were all maxed out, I really needed help. Help actually came from a company I read about here SKY CREDIT SOLUTION, they were able to remove the evictions, inquiries, late payments on my report and increase my credit score, they also cleared my credit card debts and remove the limits in 10 days. Such excellent services are hard to come by that’s why I am writing about it. If you wish to get HELP Email SKYCREDITSOLUTION247@GMAIL.COM or text (620) 399 6316 and you will be glad you did

Because tech companies are in way over their heads with all the social problems they've created.
Every single trip I've made out to Silicon Valley has always included a visit to Fry's. Because it's every couple of years you'd think I'd see the changes but I haven't.

Bought my last laptop at MicroCenter in Detroit. It's the best there is in Michigan, but sorry it doesn't even compare to Fry's.

I do miss Computer Literacy bookstore and it's demise is definitely accountable to Amazon. BeOS was pretty damned cool but Jean-Louis do you ever wonder what would have happened if you'd ever taken his offer and created Fry's of France?
Uh, did you not notice that you've only managed to describe geographic locations limited to within United States borders. Borders constrained by trade agreements, and availability dictated by import/export and interstate trading jurisdictions for regulated psychoactive substances like nicotine and THC?
You've got to give respect to Amazon. In most companies you have the grunts, then the engineers. Google will shower engineers with benefits, but the guy driving the google maps car gets nothing (contractor), Facebook? Shower the engineers with benefits! Have to read through death threats daily? You. Get. Nothing! (Contractor). Amazon? Fuck you, you're all getting gruel.
> smartphones and social media have destroyed at least one generation of Americans.

According to millennials it's the boomers.

According to the boomers it's the millennials.

Meanwhile Gen-X and the Silent generation are observing that everyone; even people who don't use social media directly are affected by the change in how truth is socially constructed.
That thread seems like speculation without much to back it up. Not everyone showing symptoms smoked THC cartridges and the article makes it clear that experts have not yet identified a specific cause
It's worth noting that when this was presented to Kennedy, he didn't have the general criminally charged.
This is a casualty of state governments dragging their feet when it comes to legalization.

You can get very "legit looking" THC cartridges very easily where I live (New York). They're Chinese-made copies of legit dispensary brands which are then filled with whatever junk. It doesn't surprise me at all that some of them are tainted.
I was just wondering the other day, how Frys can still have such large stores in the Bay Area.
But discounting the labour cost is not the only dimension. These immigrants are spending money domestically, increasing the domestic output, creating new market demands, paying rents, etc.

I do understand your logic, but my argument is while offshore money is spent outside the borders, immigrants spend most of their income domestically and pay their taxes, which is a too big difference to put it into the same category.
CityAM published a really interesting article about this https://www.cityam.com/what-was-behind-fridays-national-grid...
It certainly fits the given explanation
I have done. I could give several more reasons than you've listed above to support your own argument.

That's not the point, though.

John's kids are hypothetical.
But so is John.
As is Harry.

As is a 500 year old Aubrey de Grey.

Rights are what people decide they and others should or shouldn't be entitled to based on a consensus of what most of us consider to be, you know, morally right.

If there was consensus on the rights of people yet to live (who may or may not ultimately be born) there wouldn't be differing views on pro-life/pro-choice - and the terms would likely not exist.

To come back to the crux of your argument, though - I don't believe our John is any more responsible for a single potential offspring that doesn't come to pass than a father is for every sperm that doesn't fertilize an egg. That would be, as you've said, absurd.

My point was that suspending the natural cycle of life in a way that prevents pro-creation is, in my view, morally wrong. Something I imagine we disagree on.
Not sure how it's a strawman, but let's address his statement directly.

Do you agree with him that Python 3 strings are difficult for experienced programmers? Apparently they are difficult for Zed Shaw as I quoted above. And also since they're difficult for him, does that mean that beginners "don't have a chance"? Demonstrably false and arrogant claims like this one, as well as many others in his Python and C books, make him lose all credibility.
Can you tell me more about this group? What sets them apart from the teens on social media today?
I read the entire website, then spent a few minutes looking at the code, then a few minutes at the paper. So far, I don't understand the exact nature of the proposition here.

Specifically: is there any difference in the collusion profile with CHURP vs. vanilla SSS? If this is not an area of dramatic distinction, then it's a little hard to understand how this might end up underwriting key management technology.

Disclaimer: I work at NuCypher; our Ursula Character is probably reasonably regarded as occupying a similar space to this.
The proto-language problem is important because human language seems like a distinct, set thing. But still, there had to a point "halfway" between human-language and not-human-language and would be a proto-language (primitive language-like systems [1]).

Is a way of piping data a language or a proto-language?

Perhaps that's best left as an exercise for the reader.
Raise inheritance tax... So people can inherit their family home then immediately have to sell it because they can't afford the tax bill just because their parents purchased in a cheap part of London that boomed 30 years later? No thanks.
Terrorists and rogue dictators are often described as "unstable" or "irrational", but they tend to be rational within certain boundaries. For example, if you actually believe the nonsense about an afterlife filled with dozens of virgin concubines, suicide bombing becomes a rational decision, aside from being motivated by an irrational belief. Likewise, Kim's strategy follows the basic form of hostage-taking. If Kim actually "sent off a nuke", he would lose much of his leverage, just as a hostage taker loses leverage as soon as he starts killing hostages.
It's exactly the same deal on OS X. There is no stable system call interface that is not the C library, and it's one of the main reasons they don't allow static linking there either
Can anyone give an example of a command I'd want to run on every .ssh login, but not put into my .zshrc/.bashrc on that machine?
One thing I found recently That would help with data usage, as well as preventing tracking (like facebook) is uMatrix:https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix. It allows you to selectively block ads, cookies, frames, scripts, xhr etc; from each individual source sending data on a particular site. You can even block individual sources across the board & they will be prevented from sending data on any site, as long as uMatrix is enabled. The link is the official github & contains links to the chrome, firefox, & opera versions.

There is a bug report for this: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1383363
In industry "secret sharing" has essentially become a good indicator for snakeoil.

Virtually all applications people argue for the direct use of secret sharing make limited sense under plausible threat models. The implementations are usually flawed, almost universally containing at least certificational issues like timing/emi channels (which are likely worse threats than the things they protect against in most cases) and it's not that uncommon to find implementations which are broken in ways that completely undermine their security.

An intuitive way to understand why this is so is that secret sharing can be fairly seen as a generalization of one-time-pad encryption to support thesholds, and so the same (and worse) fragility that is widely understood to exist for OTP encryption exists for SSS.

To be useful secret sharing needs to take place as part of a greater protocol-- and it does, but then it doesn't get called secret sharing-- it gets called whatever the greater thing is like "multiparty threshold signatures".

Academic work on building blocks is useful, but its another thing to promote something as directly useful industrially.
While I think those that forgo social media while growing up are more likely to have better attention spans and ability to focus, I'd also guess they're just as likely to be significantly socially out of the loop.

This is a bold claim to make without citing anything.
If I recall, ULTRA played a non-trivial part in the Dunkirk landings by checking what the Nazis actually knew. Without that intelligence, it may not have succeeded and things could indeed look very different today.

Moving on from that, one of the people behind ULTRA went on to develop what we would recognise today as the cloud. In terms of cryptography, ULTRA was classified for decades after as the techniques developed were still in use.
that's probably part of TxF (aka transactional ntfs) which got deprecated basically as soon as it was released (though i think it's still used internally for e.g. system restore) so it's likely that got moved around somehow or the TxF API got reimplemented in userspace
Okay quick thought exercise. HN doesn't use a react framework and is quite lightweight on clientside JavaScript. How many upvotes does it take using this system before the total data size transmitted (original page + modifications) is, in sum total, larger than a fresh load of, say, Twitter?

The reality is that for the bulk of users, votes are an uncommon interaction; most of us are here to read the articles and view the comments. The additional complexity needed to make votes small has an upfront cost, and in this case, I feel the simplicity of the base interface is the better thing to optimize for, and HN's designers appear to agree. 10 kB for what is effectively a server-side page reload (which probably gracefully degrades for folks running NoScript) seems fine.
Why is the general population of college students being given access to technology that's vital to national security? If it's that important, no one should be getting a look at it without a passing a security clearance. A professor isn't qualified to do that in any way.

I was hanged-up on by a 911 operator while I needed their help because she thought I did not have an emergency. Lucky for me someone else was monitoring the call and I was called back as soon as I put down the phone to tell me help was coming.

When I read these 911 stories it makes me wonder about the training these operators are getting and whether many are just burned out and should think of going into a new career.
I have no real justification for this, but companies have a natural culture. One of the signs of a failing company is trying to adopt someone else's culture. So whilst Functional structures might work for some companies, if you work in a divisional company and management decides to make you "Functional" that sounds like a red flag to me.
A lot of these systems ignore the querying side of a schema i.e. in graphql you can define a schema then query only certain parts of the schema so only parts of the schema are enforced at runtime
It is about time to find a new term describing Conspiracy theories that are true. Once a conspiracy, always a conspiracy. It's so convenient.
It's very telling you think LGBT+ acceptance is a "trendy movement"
Founder here. Happy to answer any questions you have. I've been working on this for over a year and it seems to be in a good form now. I would love some feedback from the community here.
remember when hacker news wasnt overrun by web developers who have only heard of x86 and ARM (and would be hard pressed to explain what ISAs even are)

well me neither but still
And that was the last time our intelligence agencies ever planned a false flag operation in order to sway public opinion and get their way... phew!
It be worth stealing anywhere, provided you ok (or dont care) with possible consequenses if getting caught. Resale, private usage.

Guess the gate is eletricfied, as the bars look easy to get through.
I would guess that gamers are by far the largest market for home-built PCs these days. Most people see no need to build from scratch.
I would advise using your browser's developer tools to find the irritating web page js, css, or domain/sub-domain responsible, and then using uMatrix/privoxy/hostfile to block that garbage. Many sites are usable by preventing js entirely.
Do people really let strangers walk their dogs?

It’s crazy, my dog is my best friend, there’s no way I’m trusting a random person with his life. If I can’t find someone to take care of him, I change my plans. If you can’t prioritise your dog you shouldn’t have one.
Huh. Why is this so slow? According to Chrome, it took 704 milliseconds from clicking the "show" button on "Windows XP" to displaying the results. No network calls at all. A whole 525ms of script evaluation. Modern computer, thousand row table, wouldn't expect it to take that long.
If you have sensitive or dry skin, or something like eczema, it can (usually over long periods of time) cause some pretty severe issues if you don’t have enough humidity.
Sure, I do this. A lot of stuff people buy is often a lot cheaper with promotions. Just the other day, I bought a $600 set of tires for $300-380 (depending on whether or not I remember to do the mail in rebate). That alone is well worth the few clicks it took to filter mails from that list out of my inbox and into a label for car-related marketing.

I have a couple of broad categories for these filters like car stuff, computer stuff, other-hobby-related-stuff and of course clothing, and just take a look at the appropriate one when I need or want something. Takes virtually no time, and saves a lot of money.

Of course I'm not gonna lie, I do end up buying things that I wouldn't have bought otherwise by doing this. But some of those things are pretty cool, too. :) I do have a few more cheap ARM boards of various types than I can probably use, though.

> What a crap comment, I can see why you chose to use a throwaway account.

I always use throw away accounts. I also don't understand why people are so sensitive to this. I have once been permanently banned from r/de for making a similar point (although I could reverse it with the help of another Redditor).

> That's about the same as saying that a law against breathing would make all of us illegals because it is something that we did, rather than that breathing is a direct result of being alive as a mammal. Sex is a natural thing. If you outlaw sex then you are by definition creating criminals

What about laws against incest or sex with animals? Although admittedly, if one wants to have sex with a relative, one is usually still attracted to other people. Also, one could say that it does indeed criminalize the existence of zoophiles, but that this is worth it.

(I better don't talk about more controversial examples to not derail the conversation.)

Also, some American states make it illegal for minors to have sex. Does that mean they can be persecuted for being minors?

> you might as well name it for what it is: a law against certain groups of people. The act itself is merely the stick used to hit them with in a legal way.

Are you sure that they didn't just find gay sex disgusting, but would find "non-offending" homosexuals tolerable?
Completely agree schools cost too much and ideally everyone would have lots of options -- talking about loans isn't they way to get there, the problem is the cost of schools and housing skyrocketing.

Ways to Tweak Slow SQL Queries
> In the Linux world, since syscalls are exposed by libc, other non-C runtimes (for example, Go) end up needing to make system calls on their own without the libc wrappers. Is such a system just not a thing in Windows?

Yeah, it's not a thing. You just import functions from ntdll the same way you import from anything else. The OS program loader reads your program's import table and loads them for you.

> does ntdll expose any other functionality? Functionality that may want to be overridden by a different implementation, etc?

It exposes lots of other stuff (DLL loading, memory heap, etc.) that you may want to do differently, but you can hook those at runtime if you really want to. It's not as convenient as just linking another library, but on the other hand, it makes it easier to replace them at runtime instead of at compile-time -- say, if you want a shared library to override a syscall.
Shared memory to a background process is better, in that it can survive most classes of process crash.
That's missing the point. People don't get angry about someone else being a thousand times better off. They get angry about being left behind while certain special interests take all the gains.

That's something that can't be solved by an inheritance tax or sending children to boarding schools from the day they are born to let them grow up in a homogeneous environment.

All of those children will then feel left behind while their parents party away their last savings because the state is going to take it away anyway, right?
> It seems odd to me that the Feds would target these specific 9 students so I think it’s worth the time to wait until we hear more.

agreed, but its important to understand the role of the media is bring things to light, for the sake of transparency so that society can hold people accountable.

While we should absolutely resolve to get more information before making any kind of decision, we should also ask why the CBP is able to operate with such a lack of transparency that these kind of stories are a requirement.
Beautiful. A real-life version of The Vow: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1606389/
Let me be more specific. You are saying that they government should anticipate a thing that doesn't work and has no realistic timetable to be adopted at any scale. Further, you don't take into account such little things as car tires rapidly deteriorating at your proposed speed (and for just that one little thing you must ignore that that any changes to composition just for your wonder-roads will increase cost and decrease other valuable aspects of tires, like road grip, which matter more in inclement weather in more rural areas).

And it should just...happen, because you said so.

A sibling commenter had it: you're badly reinventing trains. What is with the obsession amongst the tech set to reinvent mass transit poorly? (See also "Loop," by one Musk, Elon.)
certainly not from a volume standpoint, since millions of people, including Chinese university students have no problems at the border.
It's great how you can read about this type of stuff on Wikipedia.

It's said that there's a wealth of classified / shouldn't-be-public information (particularly on US military projects/technology) on Wikipedia. The government can't just take these pages down because there's a public record - they'd essentially be confirming the info is important.
People have been vaping for a decade. There is no epidemic of vape-related pulmonary issues anywhere else than in the US right now.

Smoking kills over eight million people every year, 480,000 of them in the US alone.

Even if the current epidemic turns out to be global, vaping is still several orders of magnitude less lethal.
It is a bit of a stretch to say there are no oils involved whatsoever. Glycerol/glycerin is almost always produced from triglycerides such as vegetable oil. (Edit: as the article states, the potential for left over oil from this process being present in the glycerol is one of the causes being explored)

Additionally, I believe the flashpoint for glycerol is lower than most vegetable oils so your argument doesn't make sense.
All these comments make me think of the deepfakes and wonder how long until they are so good even forensics can not tell the difference and the implications that will have.
I know that this isn't universally accepted, but in significant parts of the industry, we consider it vaporware if there's no tests... FWIW.
X can't fail it can only be failed.
As an example: I'd love to run `set -o vi` on every ec2-user login, but the machines tend to be ephemeral and this command might not be wanted by other users, so I don't add it to /etc/profile or /etc/bashrc.
But don't worry 9/11 was definitely a terror attack like just trust us guys :)

But they're already using javascript, and the issue is the backend response, so this would only be a backend optimization then and doesn't require any fancy frameworks?
