> is surpassed by VueJS

The web world is the wild west (and I kinda like it) but I don't think we're even close to React being surpassed by Vue.

There was a lot of talk about stars on github for Vue but I'm not sure people star what they work with every day, or at least that it means much relative to other projects.

Power consumption changes drastically depending on how many volts the motherboard feeds into the CPU. Different motherboards use different default values and different algorithms. And on top of that users can go in and tweak OC settings.

The only honest TDP range they can give you would be: TDP between 10 and 300W.

I have a 9700K (95W TDP). At idle, the entire system consumes 30W at the wall. When running Prime95, the entire system consumes 250W, and that's undervolted. The 95W number is utterly useless. If I had bought a 95W capable cooler, the system would throttle under load.

Do I understand this correctly: does this mean that every iOS device from iPhone 4 to iPhone 8 + iPhone X could be unlocked for data access if you had physical access to it?

Also one of the following reply to the twitter link posted somewhere in the comment here [0] has the following:

`During iOS 12 betas in summer 2018, Apple patched a critical use-after-free vulnerability in iBoot USB code. This vulnerability can only be triggered over USB and requires physical access. It cannot be exploited remotely. I am sure many researchers have seen that patch.`

This could explain the recent price reduction of bounty for iOS (lower than Android) [1]

2019 Global Inventory of Organised Social Media Manipulation [pdf]
My point simply being that most of these types of fraud are rather easy to commit, but actually quite hard to get away with, and the consequences can be very severe. I’ve worked with quite a few US financial institutions, and a lot of their fraud investigations end up with arrest warrants.
There are many causes and only some of them see the light on any given day. Our society has some value hierarchy for which ones.
The realization by the masses that they have no control over their own lives is the progenitor of revolution. Do the beneficiaries of the status quo understand the resentment they are building? History has shown they seldom do until it is too late.
Personally, since I started limiting social media to maybe a couple times a week, stopped watching the news shows, and trying to read long form investigative pieces of news I've become both much happier and more well informed. It's also easier to avoid unwittingly becoming part of mobs.
Unfortunately HN isn’t the place to be able to ask the basic question of how we can spend 3 years working with foreign governments to investigate Trump for something which was never found to be true, but Hunter Biden actually does walk away with millions of dollars from Ukraine and flies out of China on Air Force Two with billions from Bank of China, and asking them to investigate why Joe (by his own admission) extorted them into firing the prosecutor — that is literally treason?

That sounds cool, but I also find that for any drive over 10-15 minutes, it's probably a good time to top off the battery, and so the tethering doesn't bother me.

But I get what you're saying.

Foursquare third party clients during its hey day that did auto check-in would have a cooling off period of X minutes or hours not to check-in to same location again.

Apple could do something like that. Probably a bit more sophisticated.
One thing that I see making the situation worse is the lack of common cause and identity. There was always party division, but the other side was still seen as your fellow Americans. Today, not only is there an opposing side, they are seen as an enemy that must be totally annihilated. If we continue down this road it's going to be disastrous because it's going to leave no room for dissent inside or outside politics.

I'm not saying that Americans never disagreed, war'd with each other, etc. That's not the point. The point is that we're losing that belief in an American ideal that helps keep us together while we debate our issues. The more divided we are, the more we'll be ripe for the picking by those who never cared about America in the first place.

It's not just TV and social media, but a belief that America should be a hodge podge of cultures united by nothing but an empty consumerist culture. It's pretty hard for things like forgiveness, giving the benefit of the doubt, and seeing each other as human beings to actually work in such a place when there are political interests that benefit by having those principles eliminated. A hostile, low trust society clicks more ragebait and gobbles more food to combat depression.
Is it established that internal dialogue is facilitated by our language faculties, though? That’s certainly not was I would guess from my subjective experience.
A difference in degree, not of kind. The societies probably informed each other through trade. Horses were domesticated around this time and were used as pack animals even if they weren't yet being ridden. Aristocracies would have traded ideas along with goods. Advances in governing might have communicated themselves across the whole globe in a few hundred years, maybe even shorter. This is a blink of an eye on the historical time frame.

We really shouldn't underestimate the capabilities of Neolithic peoples.
Um, Brexit is a big deal. It's so big that there is talk that we might see a united Ireland in our time, that's how big it is.

Paying taxes is not politics. Being stressed about that is just the same as being stressed about any other personal administration task.
Looked at from a different angle, the folks that get put into office get to decide who "wins" and who "loses" among the citizenry.

That'd be enough to give me some anxiety. What if the person that gets into office has enough political power to bring back the Pre-existing condition nonsense? That would certainly decide that my wife and I deserve to "lose" for being born with certain chronic conditions.

For us, it would hurt, for some people they may just completely "lose" their livelihood.

Just a thought.

EDIT: Wanted to make sure I mentioned that I agree with your initial premise.

> as an individual it's close to impossible to change anything

This is actually not true at all. A small group of determined people is often able to affect large changes. Here's one thing I managed to do in Italy, a country where I'm not even a citizen:

https://blog.therealitaly.com/2015/04/16/fixing-italy-a-litt...

The most effective way to never change anything is to cynically decide that it's impossible and not even get involved.

Compared to Macs and Windows, it’s a lot better for almost all consumers. I can install things willy nilly on iOS devices with some type of assurance that there are some things that an app can’t do and some things it can’t do without my explicit permission.

Any program that you install on your computer has the same permissions that you have. Time and time again it’s been proving that even so called reputable companies like Facebook, Google, and more recently Zoom (popular video conferencing software that installed a web server on your computer that would automatically reinstall the app after you installed it) can’t be trusted.

And let’s be honest, most of the money on mobile is being made by free to play games where the whales buy loot boxes and gems, or subscription services where you can buy subscriptions outside of the App Store or more recently you must buy subscriptions outside of the App Store or services

I’m not going to go on some strange website and enter my card to download every piece of software and neither are most people. The App Store brings you customers that you would never have.
Heh. My VW is a GTI, so we have the same system.

Having exposed myself to a small circle of people on the internet with particular viewpoints, i've noticed politics is all i can think about lately. I can only imagine what it must be like to follow social media and have reactionary news articles thrown at you daily, something i've managed to avoid. It only makes sense that you chip off bits of your sanity every time you box yourself in with certain crowds and information feeds.

Don't trap yourself in a bubble, people.
You absolutely can do it. I met plenty of families living on the road, home schooling their kids, etc. etc.

For me, it all starts with savings. If you really, really want to break out of your current lifestyle, you have to start putting money away, and you have to start now.
It might take 5+ years, but if you want it badly enough, you will find a way.

Keep in mind it's a lot (A LOT) cheaper than you think. Most people spend around $1500/mo for absolutely all expenses to drive around the entire world. [1]

In a workplace environment, it is quite possible that there could be implied ramifications to accepting or not accepting a request for a date. And if the person being asked of it sees the request for a date as having an unspoken "or else..." tacked onto the end of it... well, why shouldn't that be sexual harassment?
You may not be interested in politics but politics is interested in you...
I stopped paying any attention to politics years ago and I'm a person who coordinated and planned 2 campaigns in my local state.

It saddens me that a large amount of people are stressed and consumed by a process that they have very very little impact on. Unless you live in a select few states, your state probably gets 2 electoral votes for your senators and a few more based on your district size. If you live in Montana, Alaska, North or South Dakota then you're getting the minimum of 3 electoral votes.

It's really more about outrage culture at this point I think. I actually wonder how much harm is done by the election process in how it makes people think problems are being debated or solved when no legitimate debate is taking place and no real solutions are being implemented.

Also, it doesn't matter which political party you are on.

If you're a "left" leaning person who wants socialized healthcare, we never really got that. We got something that had some of the same words and ideas, but in the end nobody could actually go to a doctor without wealth being a large factor.

If you're a "right" leaning person you probably want a smaller government that spends less and we never get that. For every reduction in law hundreds are added. One step forward, 99 steps backwards.
So this might increase theft, as it is more valuable than a mere brick now.

I too felt uneasy about this. On one hand Stallman did something wrong on the other hand it smells like judgment by mob/hashtag/fashion, doing the right thing for the wrong reasons, and downright repression of free speech. I have been thinking about it quite a bit, and this is my conclusion at this point:

• What Stallman did is wrong, it was the wrong place, the wrong time and regardless of him feeling that way he speaks from a place of authority (more details at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20992124)

• This one incident should not be sufficient for firing a "visiting scientist" and the head of an organization he himself founded.

• In the case of a repeat problematic behaviour it should be addressed as such. Both MIT and the FSF should have expressed their concerns years ago, followed by discussions and explanations of what constitute an acceptable behaviour and clear steps, ending in a dismissal, that would have been taken if his behaviour were not corrected.

Not addressing a problematic behaviour for years or decades is wrong. A quick firing for one incident, because of past issues that have never been addresses, is wrong. Putting pressure on someone to resign rather than dismiss them is a cop out for either lack of courage or lack of arguments, or both and is wrong. Caving under mob/fashion pressure is another cop out and is wrong.
When the philosophy is "we should have tolerance for other world views" then intolerance of world views is in fact a problem. The apparent contradiction is one of semiotic similarity, not content or hypocrisy. If you say, "I believe in non-violence!" It's no contradiction to fight an attacker that will otherwise kill you. You cannot maintain a tolerant community with large swathes of intolerance.
I've just recently discovered it, but I'm a big fan of the work that Better Angels are doing to reduce political polarization in our society and help us communicate peacefully: https://www.better-angels.org/our-story/

I think it has a lot of potential to help with this problem.

Well, yeah, pretty sure. I don't think you have attributed any quotation to RMS.

You are being a little bit slippery, though. RMSs entire post to the CSAIL list concerned his objections to the accusations levelled against his late friend and colleague. He specifically objected to the use of the word "assault".

You said that RMS had expressed his defence "in simple terms"; I questioned that, pointing out that his post was sophisticated, and required a close reading. Now you are saying I have denied things that I have not denied; and asking me to re-read your posts, as if I have mis-read your remarks; but I have not.

I’m be been alive for six presidents and the only thing that has had a direct and substantial impact on my life was Obamacare (it cost me a lot of money).

I was glad when Trump got elected as I thought in might cause real change. Not because he’s competent but because he’s an outsider and prone to doing things the establishment would never do. He’s delivered a mixed bag on this theory but I think a lot of legacy corruption has been exposed (as well as his new corruption).

It all stinks, but if you don’t follow the mainstream outrage machine you can live a happy life that doesn’t feel like near apocalypse every day.
I'm picking you to reply to, but several people noted they like the Tesla UI -- but none of the people I know IRL do. That's interesting.

What Tesla does is kind of irrelevant to us, though, since we're a 1-car family, and need to retain the ability to take long trips in areas with poor charger concentration. IOW, if we had 2 cars, one could definitely be a Tesla, but we don't need 2 cars.
Absolutely.

I do question if society is better off catching a few more criminals through these databases and familial matching vs the potential for innocents to be imprisoned based on nothing more than a DNA match against skin cells.

I'm also not too fond of the idea of my relatives' DNA being used to draw suspicion to another relative just because someone's DNA wound up in a database. To me it's just another one of those things (ALPRs, all the compilations of "it's just metadata") that erode our privacy and give the state a great deal of power for relatively little benefit to the people.

All crimes don't get solved, all criminals don't get caught, and in a society where everyone's a law-breaker because there are too many laws to know them all and so many of them are dumb, that's how things should be.
Perhaps you can start by naming some progress that has been made? I see very little.
Exactly - in our universe on a fundamental level all waste is just atoms and elementary particles in the end.

With enough clean & cheap energy nothing really prevents you from reassembling those particles into something useful.
> With all due respect to his employment and religious beliefs, that is not the sort of person to provide a better understanding of Stallman, in general or psychologically.

Money.

Both sides raise money by stoking emotions - usually fear. This leads to a LOT of exaggeration of conduct, risks, etc.

The largest demographic glued to news channels is easily motivated to donate based on emotion and fear - our aging population. By way of example, most phone scams have fear-driven messaging and are targeted at this cohort.

Want to reduce your stress AND keep informed? Understand and accept that politics is foremost about money and getting you to open your wallet. Discount messaging on both sides as you would advertising for soap, a new phone or medication.

I don't want to minimize the impact of foreign interference here. Many countries seek to manipulate messaging, yes. Nevertheless - its the billions required for elections that drives the ugliness.
HN is a board for things that are interesting. It is not against politics. Sometimes politics is interesting.

Seems like a certain type of person loves to demonise others; to root out people they can add to their bad guy list and gaining social acceptance points from the fellow good guys in return.
I have nothing to back this up but I can't help feeling the dumbing down of popular culture, like adults watching superhero films for example, has something to do with this.
Maybe both of these things are bad if true? It's just that hyper-partisanship and making the senior levels of the justice system into political appointments have made it impossible to hold the powerful to account.

No one is saying tear down everything he had ever done. All that's been said is that someone with a history of being aggressive, supporting of paedophilia, unable to determine appropriate times to debate, and lacking social graces wasn't the best person to lead an organization. RMS has had a long history of getting a pass for his actions because of his skill and passion, he was excused for behaviors that would get most people fired. Humans tend to act like this, a long buildup of frustration followed by quick action once a boiling point is reached. Look at most civil wars for instance. I think RMS made the right decision by stepping back and not letting the outrage fall onto the organizations he's part of. As is abundantly clear from the comments here, RMS will never lack for support regardless of what he does, so I don't think anyone needs to be concerned about him landing on his feet, he's going to be absolutely fine.
Or if you have kids in school/college, family/friends/colleagues burdened by the health system, stuck in immigration limbo, who can't afford housing, kids who want to live above 40 or not get shot at in school, etc :)

It's actually pretty easy to change things. A few think-tanks actively invest in propagating this idea that it's impossible to change things, because lower voter turnout works better for them. Local elections have even lower turnout, therefore giving a lot of power to those who can participate in the process.

Sure, federal politics are further away. If you feel alienated by that, start by your municipal politics, attend counsel meetings, join a local political party and their meetings (their nomination process might only have 20-50 people actually picking your next candidate).

I'm in Canada, which is a bit different, but I have participated in a lawsuit against our provincial government (regarding software purchases) and presented myself as a candidate in municipal elections. And trust me, I have little background for that, but it helped me get better acquainted in the processes and I'm pretty happy on how it nudged a few things forward.
I posted a link elsewhere in the comments -- check out the Better Angels organization. I think they're really on to something. They teach people how to talk about politics in a way that leads to a respectful conversation and consideration of each others views rather than a screaming match.

I agree it's a big deal. However I think the stress/division is coming from political rows and ill-felling more than genuine discussions on the UK's future relationship with Europe (and/or Ireland).
