Then, would the computer not need to listen rather than broadcast?

PS: I know quite a lot about Bluetooth, although mostly about BLE. I don't see a reason why the device should be broadcasting anything. If it is scanning for BLE devices it can do "passive scanning". Is this about ordinary Bluetooth and is that different?

PS 2: Why is this different for Wifi? When a device is not connected to Wifi it sends probe requests for access points. My intuition would blame Wifi rather than Bluetooth. However, perhaps I don't know enough about old-fashioned Bluetooth. Or the device manufacturers have implementations that do not make sense from a privacy/security perspective.
Although a public IP address is required, you don't need to poke any holes in the firewall. As a result, it is not a problem from a security perspective.

This seems like the usual processor erratum causing potentially very bad things, but only in very rare conditions that no one really understands. It's not another L1TF or similar.
Yes, rehashing is very frustrating, especially because the hash tables default to most languages have that issue (i.e. std::unordered_map). It means that you may need 3x more available memory than what you actually want to store, because when the hash table resizes it has to allocate the size of the hash table twice over, while keeping the original hash table in memory.
That is a big question and maybe someone like 'rayiner or 'marcoperaza would be a better person to ask, because I have no legal training.

Based on my interested but layperson understanding of the law, my understanding is that it's an open question about the extent to which the Constitution provides a right to privacy. But I do not understand it to be an open question, or at least "as open" a question, about whether the principle of access to evidence is ordered higher than that right to privacy, whatever it may be.

(As, just, like, a person shooting the shit on a message board, I should say that of course I value privacy highly, and can think of a number of situations in which I'd order privacy higher than access to evidence! But I can also think of situations where it'd be the other way around. So, for instance: I highly value my right to discuss sensitive political topics privately, without being susceptible to dragnet surveillance trying to find "terrorists" by combing through everyone's messages. But at the same time, I'd like to see Wall Street executives be held more culpable for the harmful decisions they make to abuse their power and access, and those Wall Street execs no doubt feel a strong privacy interests in protecting their discussions about how to, say, price synthetic securities.)
Asylums were terrible. It's a dynamic that's extremely prone to abuse. I do think some people should probably be institutionalized involuntarily, but I can see the argument where, even as a mentally ill homeless person, you at least still have the freedom to physically escape someone who is abusing you. That's not something to be deprived lightly.

And yes, it was very much a global phenomenon, largely predating the 1980s.
There's an information imbalance. Free markets only function correct with complete information. You as an employer have access to data on market trends that I as an employee do not. One function of unions is to remove that imbalance, either by removing the ability to negotiate entirely, or by providing employees with more complete information. This leads to a more efficient labor market. Presumably an efficient allocation of labor is what you want, right?
Yeah. I don’t get it. If MCAS changes the way the plane flies, and MCAS can be switched off, don’t the pilots need to know how to fly the plane without MCAS? Then why even have MCAS?
I have a list with about 150 data brokers, I'm wondering what would be the best UI to help people interact with the list. Is bulk sending deletion requests to the whole list viable? Is it multiple selection?
This is more than merely annoying. Our means of livelihood are held hostage to corporate interests.

Is there such a thing as software workers' lobby or something? The problem appears to be that, we developers negotiate individually at hiring time against corporations that are effectively acting collectively.
There is a similar project called Neonto Studio: https://neonto.com/nativestudio The code Neontov generates is not exactly perfect, but it's still a nice starting point.

Bravo seems like a nicer version of this since it generates Swift / Kotlin code.
Yes. There is a proxy in front of the database which only allows whitelisted traffic (dangerous) or traffic with a valid cert (safe).

I was under the impression that AMD has their own fair share of these vulnerabilities, too. They just aren't as common in the datacenter.
Even dropping $0.1 trillion into the $25 trillion SP500 fund would affect the price and cause inflation. Index funds do not have the capacity to absorb that much wealth, so large funds like the one in Norway seek out other investments just like Vision Fund.
Sorry, I should have said "mainstream OSs", meaning Linux, Mac OS X, Windows.

Case in point - though not a topic of this particular discussion, neither of the three were designed with security in mind. Most of the security features are, in my opinion, bolt-on afterthoughts. This is just my opinion though.
Yes operating systems are in active development and research.

For major companies that are profit-driven such as Apple or Microsoft, operating system development takes a major backseat as these companies have already carved out a sizable market share and don't need to invest much to maintain their dominance as they have self-sustaining app ecosystems for their OS which continue to draw users reliably.

Sure there are people innovating everyday in operating system development like with Haiku and Redox. Many Linux and UNIX distros are very active as well.

But for the major players, it's low priority, as it gives low return to shareholders. Which means the overwhelming majority of users won't benefit from most of these new innovations until they become sufficiently innovative that they become incredibly enticing (likely to expand the market share of a major player) or become either a market threat to a major player by being enticing to app developers leading to a them developing their own self-sustaining ecosystem of apps which draws users away from major players thus creating meaningful competition.
They do, but you have to apply and be selected. Compared to all users, its a fraction. And everyone else gets pushed into the paywall, because medium basically says: "If you don't we will not promote it and your post will die in obscurity"

There are a lot of them in many cities. In LA a lot of apartments are basically row houses, only turned 90* and facing the next lot, not the street. I'm assuming it's harder to build them here without wasting tons of space as the parcels are narrow and deep.

Somewhat. My assertion is that HN quality has dropped significantly in the last year. This post is an advocacy post - it lacks objectivity and rigor.

My additional assertion is that this is happening more on HN because the demographic of HN is changing to a younger crowd - and my final theory is that that is happening because more young adults are coming here in an effort to escape the further demographic changes on Reddit.

Multi-GB images still seem... big. Though to be fair in many situations those 60 seconds are meaningless, so might not be worth the time to optimize.

Often images that large are the result of including build toolchains, which you can omit with multi-stage builds (e.g. for Python https://pythonspeed.com/articles/multi-stage-docker-python/.
Instead of free public tuition which would be untenable given our governments inability to manage the money they do have (or don't have depending on your perspective), I'd rather see them introduce a law to cap administrative expenses for public universities to some small number...maybe 10% of the total budget.
Indeed. This idea always comes to mind when I hear people wonder out loud what a true 'anarchist' society would look like... I privately answer, "Pretty much exactly like what we have now."
Non-smokers are being discriminated against! I call foul! ;-)
Ah, I thought this was about another kind of secrecy emphasized in the article:

>We don't just need votes to be anonymous and private (while still making the final result provable and public); we need votes to be so private that even the person who made the vote can't prove to anyone else what they voted for. [emphasis theirs]

This is the part I was saying doesn't seem so necessary.
Sorry I missed the second half, I fixed my comment:

It uses the label in the software update catalog to filter out specific updates.

You can get rid of it with:

It says in the article and the quote that the proposed changes are still unclear.

I can only do the test once per year without the insurance company pushing back. Yes the vitamin C studies were quite flawed, especially since they were using ascorbic acid and not real vitamin C. Ascorbic acid is just the outer layer and is missing many components. I would love to see the tests done using the real deal.

I too am a skeptic about many things. I've had no choice but to get into self research and self improvements, or I would be stuck right where I was, in the middle of a failed medical system. If it were up to them, I would just be taking BP meds for the rest of my life. The doctors back them expected me to last another five years. That was several years ago. I refuse to play that game. It would take an hour to explain all the things I am doing. People that have known me for a long time are seeing the results. I look and feel 20 years younger. I have started educating some of the doctors at Stanford about nutrition and a few of them are actually very open to learning new things.

I agree it’s oversold for most use cases, clouds do have pretty decent networking after all.

Having said that as an Australian with sub par internet at home, I do appreciate not making images gratuitously large. Just because SDK images won’t ever be deployed to prod doesn’t mean you shouldn’t strip out unnecessary junk.
I wonder if Wag Lab's advanced sophisticated app supports Andy Quitmeyer's revolutionary disruptive fully open-source "Mark Your Territory" technology, from Georgia Institute of Technology and Digital Naturalism Laboratories, that enables your dog to check into Foursquare by peeing?

I'm not completely sure what it is you want to know, but basically there are two pieces to linux container tech (Docker and others). The first is a set of Linux kernel features that lets us isolate various aspects of processes in separate namespaces. The second is layered images, using filesystem features like overlayfs and copy-on-write to avoid having to duplicated everything.
These two features of the Linux kernel are the real "container technology", docker and others are basically just user interfaces for these.

A link about namespaces:

http://ifeanyi.co/posts/linux-namespaces-part-1/

A nice little introduction to overlays/etc:

Isn't it more or less the same with or without minification? If one wants to be sure one more or less has to have a good test suite. In this case one would simply run those tests against the minified image.
In-state tuition at the UC schools is now moderately above the median tuition rates at comparable flagship state universities. However, it's worth pointing out that the California State University system has done an amazing job keeping tuition and fees low[1]. You can get a nationally ranked education from San Diego State, Fresno State, Cal Poly Pomona, etc. for less than $7,600/year in tuition and fees.

This is obviously still a lot of money, but it's far cheaper than comparable options in most other states. Florida, North Carolina, New Mexico, Montana, and Wyoming are the only other states that have similar options at that price.

Once you get used to Linux updates happening without restarting or freezing your computer, you'll never want to go back.

In a world with security updates, updates seemingly every day, every week, and monthly large updates, this would be such a great feature on MacOS.
It is not a slur. The implicication is the chinese government is corrupt and has outsized influence on its citizens through torture and detention of reletives. The fact that chinese nationals are subject to scrutiny is not their race, but their being subject to a possibly agressive foregin actor. If anything, this will allow otherwise innocent refugees a clear way out.

I've written several of these of late. They just come out angry. Maybe at the last minute there will be some beauty. But considering who is around me to read them it's almost a waste of said beauty. The anger is more apt.
They are popping up everywhere in LA. A lot of parking is still required, however, which ups the builds cost and moves those businesses and apartments into another economic class. Normally this wouldn't be an issue, but the only places cheap enough to buy and raze are places currently occupied by the working class, who will still have their jobs in town but will end up with longer commutes to affordable neighborhoods.
yes, someone with engineering background will be more inclined to say 'no' to unrealistic deadlines because they are aware of all the technical challenges and sometimes even overestimate the tech challenges.. someone with MBA would never know all things that could possibly go wrong, and might be focused more on the release features, deadlines and the budget cost.

just as much a laugh to deify the original writers of the constitution. do you really think we havent learned anything since? and why are you talking about average programmers being involved in this hypothetical process?

i have no doubt we as a people could write a far improved constitution; the problem is that there is no suitable mechanism to get there, no way to avoid corruption
Since they control the plaintext -> encrypted transition, theoretically they could copy the plaintext payload in the encryption process. If this were hidden (say via steganographic means), it might not be detectable.

In an ideal E2E encrypted system the private keys should never be readable outside the systems you trust. The keys can be encrypted using personal credentials (like a password) and stored on the cloud. A simplified login flow looks like this: 1. download your encrypted keychain, 2. decrypt it using your personal credentials, 3. fetch encrypted data and decrypt it using your keychain.

But you still have to trust the application that does all this behind the screen to not leak your decrypted keychain or personal credentials. Facebook's messenger app is closed source so who knows that's happening there.
>> They already had a big gap in the area of a "desktop mac". There was a large unoccupied space between the Mini and the Pro

The entry-level model is $5,000 USD, RAM can't be added later and there's no option for an NVIDIA video card.

Even in rich countries, that's clearly not what 99.9% of people want in a desktop computer with "some horsepower".
Providing state insurance for these homes won't fix the problem. We need to start subsidizing residents to move away from areas that climate change will render inhospitable.

While confusing for some, I love this part of `git add`.

While branching is already easy enough, I'll regularly get to a point where I may want to spend a few minutes going down a path. I'll either be happy where it leads me, or realize it was a bad idea and scrap it.

I'll `git add` the current state, make the changes I want, test it out, and then either revert back to what's staged, or like where I'm at and `git add` the rest in.

That and `git add -p` also mean that I rarely do a `git commit -a` or the like; stage it, then commit it.
While it seems like this could be true under some circumstances, I don't see how or why this would be inherently true. (Also, picking "billionaires" as the standard here is a strawman; GP didn't say anything about billionaires.)

1. Each billionaire wasn't created by a small EFT from every adult, so there's no reason to expect that reversing the transaction would somehow fix the issue.

If we focus on where the money came from (we don't try to solve for individual billionaire-creating events like inheritance), I would imagine most of it can be described as accrued by extracting small slices from a great many individual transactions (including labor arrangements, government contracts, B2B, retail purchases; directly and transitively through investments, incentives, etc). Little slices of the value that transaction may go to a very large number of individuals, institutions, and corporations.

A great many things seem plausible. Billionaires (or anyone that, as GP said, reaches material escape velocity) could be getting richer by obtaining ever-shrinking slices while facilitating an always-growing number of transactions. Or Billionaires might be growing richer by "winning" (concentrating) slices that used to go to a larger number of people near the top of the wealth scale (via competition or consolidation). Or they could be obtaining slices that used to go to everyone else.

2. While I think I agree that the big benefit of solving wealth inequality is clamping the range of influence, I'm not sure what magical firewall limits the influence of the rich to politics (unless you have a very expansive view of the political).

What will happen is just the the federal government will subsidize and backstop the insurance. Look at flood insurance. The federal government subsidizes flood insurance in some highly vulnerable areas, and when there is a big disaster, provides a backstop though massive infusion of money.

I think much the same thing will happen with climate related insurance.
