I really like the french newspaper "Le Monde Diplomatique". https://mondediplo.com/

It has an english version.

I'm actually reading it in french. It's a well documented monthly newspaper.
Articles aren't here to create some bullshit buzz, but deep articles on many subjects mostly politic, economic, geo politics but ther topics are covered (internet, healthcare, ...)
Ask HN: What is your 2020 resolution?
I think it was changed that TCAS alert from the plane always takes priority over the ATC.

After this incident: 1 July 2002, Bashkirian Airlines Flight 2937, a Tupolev Tu-154 passenger jet, and DHL Flight 611, a Boeing 757 cargo jet, collided in mid-air over Überlingen.
This reminds me of this Sixty Symbols video which explains why light is slower in media such as glass than in a vacuum:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiHN0ZWE5bk

The incoming light wave causes an avalanche of secondary waves through electromagnetically perturbing the individual atoms, and the superposition of all these results in a wave that seems to travel slower than the speed of light.

Python Monthly – What Happened in December
I am alive today because someone close by me knew how to do this. I hope others never need to use it, but I hope everyone 'knows' how to use it.
It makes for better unit cohesion - Marines can train with Marines, and at least in theory everyone will eg know everyone's radio freqs and call signs and so on. (In practice, lol no not even close)

Also specific to the Marines is the idea of delivering a fully-operational fighting force anywhere in the world in a short time: infantry, armor, artillery, CAS. Marines even have their own specops (Recon). So while the Marines rely on the Navy for transport (the Marines are a part of the Navy, after all) their land warfare doctrine calls for combined arms. Can't have CAS if the wingwipers are busy doing top-cover 100 miles out from your beach assault.
Web Developer Monthly – What Happened in December
This is true, but you could probably make quite a lot of progress with "Cooking in Ten Minutes" by Édouard de Pomiane.

Some reviews of this book point to the recipes being dull compared to some newer books, which while true, misses the point entirely. This is a book that introduces the fundamental concepts of cooking with simple recipes that can be made in 10 minutes. It may be the single best cookery book ever written. It won't teach you a bunch of recipes so much as it will teach you how to think about cooking.

It's also very short, so you could probably read the whole thing in an hour (and if you pause near the start to boil some water, you might even cook something too).
My Best Advice to Prospective Bloggers
Ask HN: What is the best free Monitoring and Observability platform
I was hoping to use a monitoring and observability platform similar to Splunk, ELK, Datadog and Sumo Logic with a personal pet project of mine but most have very limited free trials. Does anyone know of a good free basic alternative?
It is amazing that in this day and age, instructions from the ATC are still spoken, not texted. (Does anyone here know if the ATC computer keeps track of the target flight level, heading, etc? If so, these instructions could probably be texted at a push of a button in addition to the spoken words. The aircraft's avionics could then be smart and alert the pilots if they're doing something different.)

I usually use TinyPNG, but its not open source, and does send the images server-side, so shouldn't be used for sensitive files.
To put it simply, it's just a very efficient way to manipulate text with a keyboard. Once you get accustomed to it, writing and especially modifying text without it seems laborious, almost like you're writing with your wrong hand.

The problem is, the opposite is true until you reach some level of proficiency. Until then, vim is hard to get used to.

I know I haven't provided a concrete answer, but many blog posts have been written on the matter. I personally started learning vim by running through vimtutor once a day as part of a New Year's resolution about ten years ago.
I did a similar thing with "The Algorithm Design Manual" by Skiena.

I really do not recommend videos/online classes for algorithms. The primary reason is that if you are learning them for the first time, there is a lot of information to get through and using the book format will force you to slow down and ensure you are learning things at your own pace.

I also highly recommend "Grokking Algorithms" as a easy primer. It seems a little "basic", but it really is a great way to quickly pick up the basics of algorithms, an a great refresher. I used it in parallel to TADM and helped me get unstuck a quite a few times.

Do you really need an argument in favor of Boston Children’s Hospital to realize that DoSing a hospital is nowhere near the scope of either a legally or morally acceptable course of action to deal with something like this even if his take on the case was 100% correct ?
I don't scan HN as religiously as I used to do it in the past. I prefer to check Ask HN most of the time as there are more useful threads in it than the main page.

To the original question, I explore Reddit subs of my choice.
The press is certainly painting him as a fairly classic example of a celebrity CEO whose real expertise is looting the companies he runs, rather than turning them around.

On the flip side of that... I quake with terror at the thought of ever being charged with a crime in Japan. Repeated interrogations without the right to have a lawyer present? Delaying charges in order to secure multiple detentions? Harsh conditions of bail?

All of these things seem to be engineered to produce guilty pleas or convictions without a lot of pesky pushback from the accused.
In many cases they have enough to invest something but don’t. I also recommended the flowchart in my post above, not just index funds.
It’s usually written NM.
Not USA, but if you have a KBC in your country (a Belgian bank, but you'll find them in other EU countries) they offer a quite easy way to start investing in index funds.

Essentially, each time you use your debit card, they round up the amount you owe the shop, and put that in a special account. For each 10 euro in that account - they invest it.

So for example, let's say I go to the shops and pay 9.30 for groceries. Then I'd end up paying 10 euro to the shop, and 70c will go to the investment account. Once the investment account reached a multiple of 10 - it gets invested.

It's a way to slowly build up owning more funds.

Of course, you can also just put X euro in it to start of instead of waiting for the initial 10 euro. :P

Ground troops have a hard time lasing a target they can't see due to being pinned down in a ditch by a machine gun.
Yes, TCAS takes priority over ATC, but I didn't mention TCAS in my comment, so I'm not sure what you mean :)

GP was asking about whether the ATC controller gets alerts, and I was replying to say that yes, there are several types of alert that should trigger in this situation, in a modern ATC setup. These aren't related to TCAS but are alerts at the ATC location.

>>(Besides, if the dome were so toxic that you couldn't get close to it, there wouldn't be vines growing on the dome and trees next to it.)

I mean, I wouldn't be so sure about it. There was a whole document by IAA posted here about the recovery of radioactive material in some former Soviet republic, and the pictures clearly show the piece of metal in between some trees and greenery, even though it was giving off a lethal dose of radiation every few hours(the person who found it died because they spent few hours next to it, the other person had to spend over a year in hospital). My point is that even doses that are lethal to humans don't necessarily affect plant life as much.
I feel really bad for this dude and hope he's ok when they do finally hear from him. First off 10 years for a DOS attack is a little extensive in my book. I really feel that these prison sentences are extreme in the case of a non-violent crime.

That all being said I think there just HAD to be a better way of going about helping the girl in the hospital. I don't get what a DOS on the hospital was suppose to accomplish.

Homeless people in NYC aren’t generally commuting in from cheaper places in...maybe Mew Jersey? Connecticut? West Chester county? The subway and train there is great, it can allow you to commute from farther out...instead of paying $3k for a one bedroom you can pay $2k instead with a one hour+ commute. But it doesn’t really solve the housing problems at the low end.

I don't think containers are defined by having a shared kernel. VM based containers, with the same API, have been around for a few years now. Cloud services serve up large numbers of these (see Fargate etc; many of these run a container inside a VM but its much the same).
Funny thing. Those F-35Bs fly off Navy ships. Marines have always relied on the Navy.
Only since the 70s when inflation was killed and interest rates started tumbling. The next 50 years wont be so kind, a lot of people will go back to poor.
Wasn't this the incident where a bunch of kids died and the grieving parent of one stabbed the ATC person responsible? Sadness all around...
No one really knows if the Linux "userspace is not covered by GPL" applies if you link an application to the kernel. Or if you then apply link time optimisation.
> What does this even mean? Containers are built around sharing a kernel, and unikernels are all about having a kernel custom for your application. Seems the ideas are at odds.

I think the most charitable translation of this is that the OS inside the container (e.g. Alpine Linux) + application will be replaced with a single unified OS + application i.e. unikernel.

I don't think that this is true, but it's a seductive idea.

From what I can tell, as system complexity goes up, you need increased instrumentation in order to property debug your application. That is a lot of what modern OS's provide.

I do sympathize with people making efficiency arguments, but I always try to bet on the "strong horse". There is just so much money and effort going into Linux, that I think it'll get efficient faster than unikernels will get instrumented.

You're wrong on enough points that I'm unsettling to put in the time to refute all of them...

But the easy one is: there are 490 F-35s built, with the next 3 lots buying almost that amount more, for less than it'd cost to buy F-16s/-18s. It's not a small production run.

Regionally, we've had a couple thousand high end luxury units built, but no great growth, to keep up with growth we need an order of magnitude more housing then that. There has been almost no growth of rental housing outside the downtown core.

My rent more than doubled from 2012, to 2015, and then went up 10% a year thereafter - you are mostly correct, for one year in there my rent didn't go up - then the northward climb began again in earnest. I was living for most of that in what most would call affordable housing.

The market probably would do its job and solve the issue, provided we didn't make it so dang hard to actually build anything in the City of Seattle.

Something like this is exactly what I've been looking for. I like walking both when I visit a new city and also walk regularly every day (trying to get to those 10k steps).

What I would like is something like google maps where I can say I want to walk from A to B (or back to A) but take a nice route, avoiding ugly/dangerous/crowded parts of town etc. The more configurable the better.
to be fair anyone can technically skip bail. But the resources to properly fly are obviously dictated by wealth and power.
Well, it is not amazing at all, as a pilot most of the time I am looking out and over the instruments, not reading texts. Even the cockpit scan is just a scan, not enough to read more than a number at a time. The radio is at a press of the finger on the stick, typing back and forth is not. Also talking is much faster than typing.
But it’s heavily lefty sided and lacks perspective.

I quite like the rule about evidence without a warrant though.
Its hard to make a solid rule on that one but it does feel off that the truth isn't admissible if malice was used to obtain it. Surely in its perfect abstract that malice is then a separate trial as long as the evidence is genuine.
I always found this kind of funny. In a global sense, these European languages are very similar, so it should be completely fine to use only the local names. They remain pronouncable and legible to the English speaker. It's just that there are traditional English names for some cities, and maybe it can be confusing to have to relearn the native one. Maybe it's a small thing to ask the tourists.

Contrast this with Japan, where there are not traditional English names for anything, so the same name is heard in announcements in English and Japanese. It's hard to understand but that is just how it is.

Good question. For that matter, why should high-value housing in the center of a desirable city enrich a bunch of private landowners, and not the surrounding community which creates that value in the first place?

In France, movies cannot be released concurrently, see "chronologie des medias" literally timeline per medium. It takes up to 3 years after theatrical release to be allowed to distribute to all other mediums.

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronologie_des_m%C3%A9dias

Movies and tv shows are ALWAYS in the local language. The fraction of population speaking English in germany/france/spain/italy/etc is incredibly small, all content is and need to be localised.

I wouldn't worry that people will start watching (English) shows from service in other countries because it won't happen.
NYT publishes all kinds of inflammatory stuff it its Op-Ed section. I don't think you should read the Op-Ed section too seriously (or at all). It's not up to the same bar as the rest of their reporting. It's their way to compete for clicks in a click-driven economy. Stick to the news sections.

With you there. But compared to the Bay Area, Seattle is practically permissive.
"Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it."

putting an app in a unikernel may be about as clever as possible for a great many software engineers.

On HN we would say: first make it, then sell it, then make it work, and finally, make it better :)
If you ignore the typical propaganda and research the actual policies of Obama you are likely to come to the conclusion he was the Bush dynasties 5th and 6th term. Despite all the rhetoric he continued nearly every significant policy that Bush implemented. You might find weird things like the fact Biden actually wrote the Patriot Act.

99% of containers don't leverage OS instrumentation or really anything unique from the underlying platform. It's typically just run this Java/Python app and maybe run this database or infrastructure component.

And there is nothing inherently inefficient about the Linux kernel. It's more that once you pack on all of the userland components you do end up with a sizeable attack vector.

IBM's business model is persuading people to pay them for their expertise/services.

Put yourself in the shoes of someone who doesn't really know much tech, but is trying to select their next vendor for something: search around for some keywords and up pops the IBM articles/releases and all your buzzwords are name-dropped along with some impressive-sounding other things you've not heard of/only vaguely aware of, so - BINGO - IBM goes on the shortlist and your fairly boring CRUD e-commerce project is now breathlessly mentioned along with AI/IoT/5G/FutureTech and suddenly seems more exciting (...and expensive/profitable) than it is. You can't blame them.

You could still duplicate the verbal instruction in a (computer-readable) text, and then have an automated alert for any deviation from the texted instructions. Also, on big commercial flights with multiple pilots, could one of the pilots have more time to verify texted information? (I thought I heard something about a communicator/navigator role). And doesn't the ATC controller already have to type in the information into the ATC computer? I'm suggesting an automated message, not literally a human typing a text.

And for unfathomable (haha, well, is it really though?) reason retirement accounts are set up to mostly benefit people with very high wages whose employers (gotta have an employer, too, or arrange things so you're your own employer—man is this dumb, it's as if it's set up to disadvantage the poor and middle class) also provide a high match rate. Meanwhile most folks are lucky to get a 1 or 2% match, leaving them way under the max possible cap even if they put as much in as they can, personally, per year.
I can't express how happy I am that this wasn't referred to as a 'near miss'. That particular colloquialism has always caused my brain to short-circuit briefly while I translate that to literally mean impact/collision.

English is my primary language, and I do know how it is [near miss] intended, and I know that I should know better. But the translation always goes:

near miss -> almost miss -> didn't miss -> hit

I've always wondered if I was the only one.
Yep I'm this way as well.

But it heavily depends on your personality (are you easily distracted?) and your employer (are they generally lax with WFH, or are they on the strict side?

I tend to have a flexible schedule. Take 2 or 3 hour breaks mid day (gym, grocery store, cook lunch, relax). But I also end up working "off hours" and put in more than 40 hours a week on average.

I know some people thrive with the "treat it like a 9-5", but for me that doesn't make a difference.

The biggest piece of advice I have that seems to overlap is, don't let your family take advantage of you working from home. It's easy to get roped into doing non-work things because your family thinks you have free time.
