Maybe your group is different, but I want someone to engage fully with me as a person, not check their phones for a fact that doesn't matter. Something like, what was Robert de Niro's second major film? This matters zero, can we have screen-free time together?
I volunteer at a homeless shelter for the last 10 years.

* people can be mentally ill in some way or another.

* physical disabilities.

* just acceptance that this is their fate, why change it.

* they just can't see any plan that leads them out of the situation so why try

* they wouldn't be sure how to function in society if they re-enter as a member of the "working class".

As a country, I don't feel we do anywhere enough for not just the homeless, but those that are simply down on their luck. Some people just need guidance and advice.

Example: I am a foster parent of 2.

The birth parents don't know how to cook, pay bills, take care of babies, etc. But do classes exist that make them practice and practice and practice. No. I've tried to get cooking classes like this offered saying I'll pay for all the food and donate my time but nobody takes me up on it. If we can teach who are inexperienced at cooking and house keeping and personal hygiene they may stand a chance of improving their lives by believing in themselves. What a bootstrap.

Maybe my perception is wrong and education doesn't help either. I feel like it would.

I guess he's pretty popular around here, but if anyone still hasn't seen the channel, please check it out. if I could, I'd vote for this guy to get a nobel prize. seriously. education is critical to our future, and efforts like set an example that I personally consider to be invaluable on the long run. what I mean is that it's easy to recommend videos of people like this, but since it's "just a youtuber", we often fail to reflect more deeply about what's —at least in my opinion— an amazing contribution to humanity.

Markdown or Asciidoc has the same benefit as far as paragraphs.
It's surprisingly hard to type instructions that everyone will follow the same way. "Go to the Start menu" is useless.

I came to add add Introduction to Graph Theory and found it here. I second it! A nice book and I appreciate it's funny introduction as a book designed for liberal arts majors injured by the pedagogy of institutional mathematics (paraphrasing).

If you have a grasp of algebra and sets this book is an easy read for the curious or mathematically immature.

Edit WhatIsDukkha is correct and their suggestion better reflects what I intended to say.
Thanks for the submission, will give this a try as I'm in the midst of some load testing right now. Could you tell me how (if significantly) this differs from something like vegeta[1]?

This is really the issue. If the Church had been replaced by some other form of community, that would be one thing, but it has been replaced by nothing.
As someone that recently consulted for a F500 client and had to make recommendations regarding their Grafana instance (among other things), we noted they were curating too many metrics (somewhere in the thousands). Our belief being that if you're providing stakeholders with so many metrics, you're forcing them to make their own decisions regarding what's valuable to track and what's not - rather than allowing leadership to provide direction as to how they're measuring performance, etc.

I can't imagine what it'd be like (as a stakeholder), using a Grafana instance that, in total, has >500k metrics. Would assume many of those are depreciated/ do not provide any value/ or do not spur any action by stakeholders.

From Wikipedia on IDW:

"The intellectual dark web (IDW) is a neologism coined by American mathematician Eric Weinstein, and popularized in a 2018 editorial by Bari Weiss. The term refers to a group of public personalities who oppose what they see as the dominance of progressive identity politics and political correctness in the media and academia."

Seems like the conventional usage of the term "Dark Web" predates your usage, and is more relevant given that we're on a tech forum.
I've managed multiple remote, asynchronous teams across multiple countries. When people work in opposite time zones, asynchronous communication is mandatory.

When it works, it's a great experience. However, async communication isn't appropriate for every situation, as the article admits. Some times, the most efficient way forward is to schedule a call where all parties can work out the solution in 15 minutes of real-time conversation rather than 3 days of back-and-forth e-mails. If the team is willing to fall back to synchronous comms when necessary, then defaulting to async communication for the other 95% of communication can work.

In my experience, the biggest pitfall is when developers try to force 100% asynchronous communication at all costs, no matter how slow and inefficient it becomes for everyone else. All team members must be willing to recognize when synchronous communication is necessary and carve out 15 minutes to an hour a couple times a week for those important, synchronous conversations.

Efficient communication is everyone's responsibility, and asynchronous communication is only a win if it doesn't create unnecessary extra work for everyone else.
WeWork shareholders: who's underwater and who's not
They weren't adding telemetry to their on-prem software, though.
A swappable battery means we're not tied to the power grid. One can load as many as possible on a pickup and use them in remote areas. Exactly what happens with petrol. Furthermore the car manufacturer loses some control, which probably is a good thing for everybody else.
There has been a recent rash of taxi driver suicides. It is being largely attributed to the rise of services like Uber. There are many articles about the dark side of the Gig Economy and how much workers feel exploited, don't have healthcare, etc.

I do gig work and I think it has potential to do good things for the world, but my views are in the minority. Most people see the Gig Economy as an evil force doing nothing but exploiting workers and that exploitation absolutely kills people at times.

There is substantial evidence that a large part of the danger involved in sex work comes from the fact that it is criminalized. This fact actively makes it harder for sex workers to operate safely.

Uber drivers do not have that problem.
I don't know what that means, but this is the handbook page on my position: https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/community-relati...
although I've been needing to update it a bit. My job is to basically relay feedback to the rest of the company, and relay any information back to you all that might be relevant. We don't wanna be out-of-touch with what people are really saying about us, and we wanna make sure you're input is received, so that's basically why my team exists.
Yah, the point is if we draw a set of hills with bumps and stable equilibria for a ball to roll down-- there is resistance to perturbation near an initial point, and then a sufficient "nudge" to get over a hill and roll somewhere else... but the ball always ends up in a stable region at the bottom of a hill.

How different a place that new equilibrium is ... is open to debate and not really known. What climate scientists have shown is that it can be, and likely is, pretty bad.
Of course I'd rather have my privacy even if it means thousands of CIA agents get tortured and killed. They're the ones who signed up for that job, a job that is likely unnecessary. And even the necessary spying would in no way justify that I and everyone else give up our privacy. Hundreds of thousands of Americans have already died so we could have that privacy in the first place. A few thousand more dying to keep it is a miniscule price to pay at this point, a negligible price. So are a few crimes being committed that could potentially have been stopped by back doors.
"Mathematics Can Be Fun" by Yakov Perelman

Not really a book that has lectures but it's a great book that covers all popular topics in Mathematics (fun to read).

It may block some ads but it's still lightyears behind Firefox for Android with uBlock Origin in my experience.
It'd be different if my friends checked climate change facts, but it's usually pointless pop culture trivia. Do we need to know completely irrelevant information about famous people, or can we look at each other and shrug and move on with connecting with other humans and not screens.
New Open Source Security Vulnerabilities [August 2019]
You should line up the free and paid features, perhaps in a table. I can't glance at a list of 8 items and a list of 10 items and distinguish what changed between them, so I'm not sure what I'd be paying for.

Lets not forget Brazil, the mercator projection makes it seem much smaller but in reality it's surface area (8,515,770 Km2) exceeds that of the continental US (8,080,464.3 km2).
>I don’t understand. This should not be an opt in or an opt out. It is a condition of using our product. There is an acceptance of terms and the use of this data should be included in that.
Seconded! In the current world where dashboards are coupled to alerts, it's very frustrating not to be able to define alerts on a templated dashboard.

It's also frustrating that it's effectively impossible with the Cloudwatch data source to select resources to alert on using their tags (e.g. select the elb with app=foo and env=prod). The dimension_values() function lets you filter based on tags, but instead of being usable directly in a panel's query it requires using a variable as an intermediary, which then disables alerting.
Just to point out if you care about privacy it's not recommended to turn on this feature becase close to none services support it and it's awesome fingerprinting feature for your browser as well.

There is no way for Safari users to opt-out from this because Apple has decided to ditch "Do Not Track" because of privacy concerns.
What you say is close but not quite accurate. What you describe is what used to happen before mobile phones, people called each other on pay phones and used coded messages. You had to infiltrate these organizations to catch them. The same solution works today. It is just not as manpower and time efficient as back doors.

The reason this is a fight now is because you can target the chain. To use your analogy above: it is more like I know someone in that tribe and I send them a message in english and they translate and pass it along. On the other side is someone in the tribe who translates it back into english for the recipient. The message is never broken in its encoded form, only on the on/off ramps. Pressure can be applied to Apple or WhatsApp to provide access to the data pre/post encoding. This is what the Australia laws demands (and the inability to disclose the back door). The point remains the same, it is only as strong as its weakest link.

How can we know that WhatsApp hasn't been patched with a back door? What about the operating system? What about the secure enclave chip itself? The only hope we have here is that companies will say no and/or whistleblowers will speak out.
It's also a beautiful book.
My solution is to doubly encrypt a 7zip file with 2 separate passwords and send each password to a different individual so that they need to cooperate in order to access the information.

I wrote about it a while ago on my blog here: https://kylekelly.com/posts/share-your-passwords/

I'm wondering if I missed an obvious security issue with this solution?
no concrete answer regarding that yet. I don't think the new ToS was published on gitlab.com already, so this might not be necessary.

I asked the question to get a clear answer, probably won't hear anything back regarding this.

It was marked as a duplicate because it was a repost of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21344575, which spent nearly 15 hours on HN's front page and got over 200 upvotes. Marking reposts like that is standard moderation. If we didn't, the front page would be full of duplicates and the comments full of complaints about them.

It seems like there's more energy than usual for continuing to discuss this one, though, so I'm happy to bend the rule. It will take a few minutes to effect a three-way merge, so bear with me.

Edit: ok, I merged the relevant comments from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21346318 into here. But I don't think it makes sense to merge yesterday's discussion (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21337594). That one is already historical since the story has changed. So what we'll do is update the title to incorporate the new information, and leave a link to the older thread at the top. I'm going to mark this subthread about dupeiness as off topic though.

If anyone still has concerns, let us know and we'll see what we can do.

Every time Electron is mentioned I bust out the popcorn for the inevitable hate spewed towards it:

"Javascript is a terrible language and no one should use it"

"Separate instances of chrome for every app is dumb and consumes too much memory"

"Qt is amazing and elegant and desktop-native. Why isn't everyone just using Qt?"
If quantum randomness is controlled by a non-physical entity then it's just moving the goal posts. For me it's really simple. Free will is people not having a pre-destined path. If the non-determinism of quantum mechanics influences the way the lives of people change through their decisions this means there is free will. Everything else is really just pure philosophical drivel that can't be verified.

Until it isn't.

All it takes is one person holding out in a neighborhood with a child kidnapping for enough hysteria to build for this to become legislated as mandatory.
Unfortunately (?) there is no reasonable expectation of privacy for activities visible from public areas. That reasoning is used for everything from license plate scanners to upskirt videos.
That would be awfully difficult to have accepted by a judge.

Even if it was, proving intent would be very difficult - after all just because you introduced a change doesn't mean I agreed to it.

Often contract clauses start off in a "no way I would sign that" state, and may get carried along for a while as you are focused on different things. The fact it existed in the history is, by itself, pretty meaningless.
Just for clarity you're not talking about top decile of the general population; just drinkers? I've heard numbers more like 5% - 1/20. Either way it's a ton of people
Couldn't even get the title right. "The multi-verse is comprised of many universes."
I don't have anything solid backing this up, but I've often heard Rust proponents claim that the borrow checker is actually fairly cheap in terms of compile time overhead. Looking at the PR, it's obvious that it generates quite a bit of code (separate kernels for different block sizes, etc.) and does things like generics over tuples, but I don't know enough about Rust to pick out patterns that might be particularly slow to compile. It does have somewhat fewer unsafe blocks than I expected.

It is. It has been also linked with bacteria that produce alcohol endogenously.
This is just incorrect, lithium is not the limiting factor for EV adoption. Currently, much bigger are cobalt supply, manufacturing capacity, and the un-priced externalities of carbon pollution. If you freed up those 3 factors, batteries would scale up ridiculously quickly, though yes admittedly in 2019 we can not simultaneously replace 300+ million cars instantly.

1. Provide meaningful work opportunities that allows a middle class existence.

2. Lower barriers to inter generational mobility.

3. Restore low cost college tuition.

4. Don’t allow medical expenses to bankrupt families.

The United States is in the Second Gilded Age. We need a new progressive movement to stand up for the majority of Americans.
Australia has far less air pollution, too, given the low population and relatively tiny strip of populated areas along the coast.

Yes two things trafficked people and people who can give consent knowingly and willingly consenting to entering this sector legally (as is possible be in NL). There is grey area where people under economic duress are taken advantage of and will ‘consent’ even if it’s unpalatable to them, if they had alternatives.
Looks like great roll-out of this feature and notice to legacy plan holders. Note that these legacy plans are over 3 years old (https://github.blog/2016-05-11-introducing-unlimited-private...) and you're still able to keep them, you just don't get access to some new products/features.

Google's new quantum supremacy device has 1,113 single-qubit gates and 430 two-qubit gates.

Consider recent improvement in RSA factorization "How to factor 2048 bit RSA integers in 8 hours using 20 million noisy qubits"
https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.09749

Actual implementation of the device mentioned above requires 2.7 billion Toffoli gates gates for 2048 bit input and it could factor just one key in 8 hours. Microprocessors reached that high MOS transistor count less than 10 years ago. For example, 8-core Core i7 Haswell-E has 2.6 billion transistors (2014). If quantum computers follow Moore's law like conventional IC, it will take 40-years before they can factor 2048 bit RSA.

Symmetric cryptography is already safe against quantum computers. Algorithms for Post-quantum_cryptography are under development and you might expect to see them adopted within next 10 years or so. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-quantum_cryptography

I still want an answer from these people. How was crime solved before end-to-end encrypted mobile apps existed? Maybe it makes it easier but maybe it doesn't. These devices connect to WiFi and cell networks and have GPS. It seems like coded messages at pay phones were even more unbreakable.
This is why you always do a diff.

In my limited experience, Word is used for the early back and forth, but final stages are done and reviewed in PDFs, and PDF diff tools used to identify any changes. No reason you couldn't do the same thing all in Word.

It does have such a tool, you would have rev A (old one) then collapse all the tracked changes in rev B and diff with A.
Except that you can, by just doing the things you want to do until they become habits. It's not really much different than going to the gym or deciding not to drink too often. Even though you might want/not want to do the thing, you still do it because you know it's better for you.

The better way to say it is that it's difficult to alter one's desires via reflection, not that it cannot be done.
I mean, it would depend on the THC concentration, right? A 1g pre-roll with 30% THC would be 3 times as potent as the one with 10%, so I can totally see someone with rather low tolerance smoking a full 10-12% joint by themselves and feeling just fine.
Bundling and Unbundling
C'mon with this gossipy rumor-mongering.

Here, let me fix that for you:

"And I think Drew DeVault is kind of an asshole."
What bothers me is how screwing users is becoming the new standard. For me trust in society is what enabled first world economies in the first place, instead of business being killed by people constantly looking for ways to screw you. I’m not naive, I own a business, and bad intentioned people exist and you must protect yourself, but assuming the worst in every transaction is not a normal way to think for society.

For my experience usually clients trust me, and I want them to succeed with my services, and contracts and lawyers are here only for the worst case.

I can’t put my finger on it or express it clearly but free market excuse « dissatisfied users can move, this corporation is responsible only for profit, everyone must lawyer up » don’t look like it’s the good direction for society. I don’t see why free market would be incompatible with an individual sense of responsibility towards society, instead of looking for loopholes to screw people. Maybe it’s a consequence of being global and having not community roots.
Learning from the Earthquake (1990)
Since this is inevitably going to generate some discussion over native apps vs. Electron (ah there's already a fellow comment about it), I'd like to point out an example that is important to me of why Electron is an inferior experience for users:

In the GitHub Desktop client, which is an Electron app, I can't spell check my commit messages, something that every text field in every native macOS app gets for free.
No I realize the circumstances are different (like fewer documents in a process) but some times you don’t notice how your tools actually change your processes.

E.g: if you are in a process when there would naturally be two separate documents it may be that you are creating a single document becuse with the single document the change process works with the tooling.

Or is there something else inherent to the process that says a process/negotiation always includes one document?

I’m not sold on version control either - especially as structured text like word processors have such poor support - but it seems even change tracking in word documents should be able to track and show the differences in a set of documents such as a directory. I’m not arguing those tracking 3 word docs should use git.
sounds reasonable, a couple more questions:

do i provide the trusted contact the access key or how does that work?

When is it generated?

What if add a new trusted contact or remove one how does that change things?
