This highlights a critical element of emergency notifications and response: you have to have a plan for how to deal with warnings and alerts. If you don't, then the alert is worthless.

It may even be worse than useless by throwing an otherwise orderly and predictable population into a panic.

How you respond to an emergency, in general, is to reduce risks and consequences. This may mean moving out of the area, but more generally, it means moving out of immediate harm's way. In the event of an earthquake, that can simply be to more out of range of falling debris, or into a solidly-constructed building. For a tsunami, gaining elevation on a secure base (terrain, a very solidly-constructed building). And, of course, responding to changing circumstances and conditions as appropriate.

For widespread disasters -- hurricane and wildfires -- exiting the region or moving to a location that's unlikely to be overwhelmed by the forces at play, is helpful.

For high wind, rain, cold, heat, etc., the challenges often play out over a longer period of time.

Disaster response as with security risks should revolve around threat models. What are the foreseeable threats, what are their specific mechanisms of action (e.g., fire, smoke, heat, wind, flood, ground movement), what's the effected range, and how can the hazards be reduced, mitigated, or countered?

Then there are the long-term survival needs: water, food, shelter, transport, injury and health treatment. Ultimately, rebuilding or relocation.

In one of the biggest disasters of all time, the Bianqao hydroelectric dam collapse following the intersection of a tropical storm and a cold-weather front, about 30,000 deaths were the immediate result of flooding. Another 150,000 or more resulted over the ensuing days and weeks from disease and starvation given both the disruption to ordinary life and the inability to move rescue, recovery, and relief personnel and supplies into the affected area.

None of which has an immediate relation to the ham vs. mesh-network radio debate, but calls into consideration that each are only a small part of an overall disaster response plan.
No, you don’t need copyright assignment to relicense permissively-licensed code, you (or anyone else really) literally only need to say “fuck it” and start building on the old BSD code with a new license.

It is when you’re relicensing to a less restrictive license, say GPL to BSD, that you need CLA shenanigans beforehand.

If it were GPL-licensed, they'd have to give back the whole Happy meal, not just the FUSE fries. Perhaps you're thinking about LGPL, or a linking exception of some kind?

Alternatively, he totally could have gone and dual-licensed GPL and a permissive commercial license as a monetization strategy, like the author pointed out.
But then again, the researchers state: "In the paper, we show that Plundervolt may affect SGX's attestation functionality" so they are apparently able to fake at least part of the attestation.

Also it will be interesting to see whether directly talking to the voltage regulation controller on the mobo will circumvent the microcode protection.
There’s another one they have like this, I think it was in iTunes

It says something like:
Do you want to update iOS.

It then has a YES and a CANCEL but also a check box to say don’t ask again, but it it only pays any attention to the checkbox if you click YES for this time. Cancel just closes the dialogue and does nothing.

Dark patterns.
Well the problem is that while $400/month may seem to you like a reasonable amount of cash to set aside, for many people it's not possible. It's quite funny you chose $400 actually - since there was a story recently about how a substantial amount of americans couldn't get their hands on $400 in a one-off emergency (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-05-23/almost-40...) let alone once a month for seven years.

Numerous frameworks didn’t even bother to turn to FOSS, and maybe they’re also doing alright. We cannot be sure though, cause no one knows their name.

The point of going foss, in my long-distance bystander observation, is to create an essential part of the market: skilled developers. Not to push your sales to everyone’s face, nor to whine that deals are too cheap. Foss folks will never pay, because they are not business for client, they are people for people (who work for business and sometimes make tech decisions based on a weekend experience).

Nice article. I use makefiles a lot, mostly for all projects that I use, both for frontend and backend, mainly to have the same commands independently of framework/platform that im using. For me its helpful to just run `make` both to build and run a go project and a react project.

Another thing you can add is:

.DEFAULT_GOAL := start

start: fmt swag vet build run

Helps define you default command soyou just need to run `make` and will run all inside of `start`

Since most of us use `.env` files for enviroment files, you can use something like:

# this allows to import into this file all current system envs

include .env

export

And it will inject all of .env file into the current running `process`

In Sardinia (Italy) we have a similar problem, many tourists steals beach sand as a souvenir. The number of tourists that does this is so big that some beaches got smaller, and goverment has choose to put a stop by giving huge fines and possibly jail time.

Are you sure it’s not Vista already?
Exactly this.

The reason these components are priced like that is because VFX studios don't use stands or wheels. Everyone has mounts and the machines are locked in place. That's who the Mac Pro and XDR Monitor are aimed at. In fact, that's also why the XDR monitor doesn't have a webcam built-in like almost all modern monitors. Webcams are not allowed in many VFX studios.

So if you want a stand or wheels designed to fit these ultra-niche components, that in and of itself is niche amongst the niche.

The cost of R&D + materials for those parts will probably far exceed what Apple will ever recoup in sales.

This isn't like the Apple Watch where they manufacture 60 million of them every year. There are no scale advantages here, it's just Apple doing enthusiasts a favor and making highly custom one-off work available.

While this is true from an economic perspective many argue that the true value of the Sri Lankan deep water port is that it allows the Chinese military (officially this is for hunting pirates) a foothold in the Indian ocean, similar to how the US can project its power far outside its border through the use of military bases around the world. Hence it isn't a major concern how profitable the port is, or so the thinking goes.

I wouldn't say most people are like that. I know people who went from being born during 1920's and are using smartphones (and taking them for granted) just like my nearly 60 years younger parents do. My grandmother went from being raised on a communal farm during real socialism to being a proficient Excel user making complex macros for tax accounting.
The article wasn't debating the stand so much as it was talking about the other 'accessories' (i.e. the wheels and cloth for the nano particle display.) So it appears that the stand was just testing the waters.
I'm pretty sure these stands and their moulds don't cost 1000+ dollars by any standard. Chinese manufacturers can make these at 10$ a piece
If they’re not expecting to make more than they spent on R&D, what was the point in even doing that R&D? If they know these options are the “niche amongst the niche,” why even offer them? Isn’t that a boneheaded business decision? Any PR they get for providing these options will be dwarfed by PR talking about their price tags.

Ask HN: How do you decouple transactional messaging from your application code?
I worked for 2 large companies that compiled (in back-end language for ex. ASP.net/JSP template) and sent transactional email messages synchronously in response to some action. Unsurprisingly, they lost messages when they exceeded their SMTP relay rate limit or when their email provider blocked their account for compliance reasons. In addition, any template changes were coupled to their application release cycle.

Obviously, these were not architected to scale. One of the companies fixed it by implementing an in-house priority-based queue, a separate template repository, micro-services for rendering/sending, etc... took serious effort.

I am curious:

a) Is this common? Even some open-source modern projects seem to send transactional messages on the fly without a retry/queuing mechanism?

b) What are the general best practices when it comes to queuing transactional messages and managing their templates?

Thanks!
I would have given them some marks if Catalina was any good. And It isn't. For the first time ever I felt my Mac reminded me experience on Windows.

It's still the laws or not that govern society, it still affects me. You'd like some minimal laws too, as you said, such as preventing people killing each other - that also is restricting other people, for the benefit of the others.
I've used pixlr a few times those last few weeks as I was looking for an image editing tool that was more powerful than paint and didn't want to install more software on my PC(I think I also tried Photopea.com, but I wasn't as successful with it).

Still thank you for your work.
Brit here: I think it is in the US interests, depending (and trump thinks in very simple ways). If the UK splits hard from the EU, it can (supposedly) be persuaded to accept US standards of food etc. Europe is also weakened by losing a major member so it can be pulled apart over time and 'embraced'.

I can see how the US, this pres especially, might see brexit as an opportunity and benefit.

(edit: clarification)
That may be so, but doesn't necessarily imply that health care is more expensive in the US. It's possible that in the US they simply spend more money on useless things, or do more screenings with better technology, for example.

Btw, mentioned in the article are these tools: “ All of the above improvements (and most of the ones in my previous posts) I found by profiling with Cachegrind, Callgrind, DHAT, and counts, but there are plenty of other profilers out there.” Does anyone have any good resources on using these with Rust, or just in general with C or C++?
> It stuck because employer paid benefits were paid out of pre-tax income, while if the worker paid for them himself it would be from post-tax income.

It stuck because of corruption since the legislature won’t fix the situation, a situation that conveniently provides a competitive benefit to large companies with lots of lobbying power versus small business and individuals.

Same garage with the pitiful restriction on IRA contributions (zero if you have a spouse that has 401k), whereas people who work for employers giving 401k get $19k.

Absolutely no reason for the discrimination to exist other than it benefits bigger, entrenched businesses at the expense of smaller businesses and individuals.

People usually get confused when we tell them that we're using Kotlin for our backend APIs. I can't blame them because we attended KotlinConf last year and almost 90% of the audience were using Kotlin on the Android platform.

Nah, not really.

Unsophisticated users tend to keep their crypto on the bigger exchanges, which means someone else manages their keys.

Sophisticated users tend to use (cheap) hardware wallets or at least understand paper backups of keys and passphrases.

I've been there. It's not just "a royal pain".

I implemented a clean-room Xbox One controller kext to expose it as HID Class gamepad in macOS some years ago†. I paid the Apple dev license on my own dime, and applied multiple times for the dev cert to be upgraded to kext dev. I was rejected each time, the answers each time being entirely tone deaf. Apparently I'm not notable enough, not commercial enough, not big company enough to get either a kext dev cert or an exception in the kext whitelist as others did.

† that was before they went bluetooth HID compliant, and anyway, even the new ones on USB are not exposed as USB HID.

Sure, the basic service is a subscription. If you want to customize the knocking pattern or have an alternative wake-up method like playing a melody or even a light-show in front of your window, you can do so with paid microtransactions. Or get one of the fancy MTX 'cheaper' by buying a mystery loot box and being lucky!

Also do not forget the challenges! Being already awake before the drone arrives for 30 consecutive days also grants an (entry-tier) microtransaction (available once per household, requires the same person to be awake every day), better ones are available for up to 730 consecutive days to give you a feeling of pride and accomplishment!
