Code signing with a trusted cert is what really helps in this scenario.
Yeah, it seems like an extremely broken font. (Safari, OS X, on a vertical 1080p monitor so my window is pretty narrow)
What a coincidence, I am currently reading that book and just watched Fridman's latest video.
I don't find that interesting or unexpected at all. If you don't work in the auto industry (or where it's used elsewhere), your only introduction may well be a single slide in University. You can be a "very technical person" and not know what Docker or TCP/IP is either. Having no clue what ethernet is would be a bit odd though.
'Obese' implies 'unhealthy' but 'not obese' doesn't imply 'healthy'.
As far as I understand it, only a small part of his book is based on distrusted research (and was that even his work or did he just write it up? Cannot remember).

Most of the book is still considered correct.

Plus, he readily admitted to the faulty parts and made a very strong request to the affected research teams to clean up their act and pretty much re-do all experiments multiple times, by multiple labs, with external oversight.
very nice @maccaw

unlike "Diary Email" your readme makes it very clear where the emails go, and since I'd host it I know no-one would read it.
Their name always confounded me. I never remembered what they did when someone mentioned this company. For some reasons, other "generically" named companies (Amazon, Adobe, Apple) don't have this issue, but this synthetic name just didn't ever mean "air travel" to me.
Two points:

1. Delayed choice quantum eraser experiments suggest to me, unless I've misunderstood them (which is highly possible), that effects can affect causes. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delayed-choice_quantum_erase...

2. Getting shot in the head isn't always fatal. The bullet could deflect off your skull, or even go through your brain and just not hit you. The bullet could experience spontaneous existence failure, or simply fail to interact with the matter in your body and pass through you. My limited understanding of physics says that things like these are possible but massively unlikely at large scale. However, if some set of things are possible but rare, and the only alternative things are impossible, then something rare will happen.
Ymm this should be included in the official version. Tried making merge request?

How so? There is still an API to ask for more details, so you can continue to do exactly the same thing as before at the cost of a few additional API calls

What am I not seeing? To me this feels like just adding more complexity to still end up at the same spot we are now.
Instance-First Development (2004)
If you haven't already I would recommend watching "Climate Grief" from PhilosophyTube.

Climate change isn't just a single issue, it intersects with immigration, right to protest, and as mentioned in the article, inequality.

Lastly, inequality is rather a divisive subject on HN. Just yesterday there was an article applying game theory to the topic. Unfortunately the majority of the discussion revolved around "Communism Bad", "Elon Musk Good" leaving little room for nuanced discussion. So here's some advice: worry first about how we got here and less about who is responsible.
Do you also grammar check the eulogies at funerals?
This is a perfect response. I'm biased towards SendGrid as I work there :)

You can totally do exactly what OP wants. Use the inbound parse webhook, get mail forwarded to your HTTP webhook/endpoint, do whatever you want, and then you can even reply using the email API of the provider. No reason to sweat the mail server stuff.

Those are technical problems that will get solved. Heck, I helped solve some of them 5 years ago with Microsoft in a limited pilot but the solution wasn't cost-effective back then. They didn't want to be first to market with a half-baked product for fear it would damage the Xbox brand. Google is starting a new brand for Stadia, so it makes sense they'd be willing to take more risk.
I have a pihole instance with DHCP running too, on a Pi4 with DSVPN (my preferred lightweight VPN) no worries. and my load averages are like 0,0,0

Yeah that is hairy. And I would say that for many organizations, if a group decides to attempt the extraction and reuse of a module, they should be prepared to adopt the mindset and working style of a library maintainer. Because once you get other people using your module (the point of reuse) you are automatically going to get multiple points of view on what needs to be improved and changed. You're going to end up being a library maintainer anyway, so you might as well go into it with eyes wide open.
The HTML markup is very strange. There are a bunch of spans around various characters, words, and sequences of words, and sometimes there are non-breaking spaces in seemingly random spots. Chrome and iOS Safari both seem confused about how to render the text and how to handle "word" selection (i.e. double-clicking).

My guess would be this is the output of some web-based rich text editor from the blog engine or CMS. Or it could be some sort of obfuscation system to circumvent adblockers or prevent scraping, although that doesn't make a lot of sense in this context.
That this exploit can be used to spoof the Windows Update system is a big yikes. You can’t necessarily trust today’s update itself.
Yeah I’m seeing that also.
Hi, I am one of the founders of Trabber, an independent travel metasearch website that we started back in 2005. You probably don't know about us because we are not very well known outside of Spain, where we started and are based, and because we are small and not linked to OTAs or travel groups. I would be very happy to get your feedback, thanks! https://www.trabber.com
Those jackets are 100% a flex, but they (and their competition like Arc'teryx, Moose Knuckles, etc.) aren't a flex in the typical middle-class way of overpaying for a middling product because it has a trendy design. They're a flex because you're telling the world that you're willing to drop $800-1200 on a coat so you can wear whatever you want underneath and don't have mess up your outfit with layers.
Based on how this thread is going, you seem to be projecting a lot of insecurity of what school you went to? Literally the words were "you will likely have a more difficult time being successful if you did not get a degree from a top school". Those words do not intrinsically say that someone who did not get a degree from a top school has less value.

It does not say that someone who did not go to a top school performs more poorly. It does not say that those who did not graduate from a top school are not good enough. All it says is that from a relative starting point, if you graduate from e.g. Harvard, you are more likely to be successful than if you did not.

My nitpicks with this premise are: is success defined in financial terms? Is it in position (CEO vs engineer)? What is the empirical evidence that graduating from a top school confers greater success (I think that there is such data, but citing it would be nice). There's enough stuff here to talk about that I am somewhat flabbergasted that you took this as a personal affront and misconstrue what's actually being talked about.
I've experienced the same. Breath of the Wild and Red Dead Redemption 2 are the only recent games that got any notable amount of playtime from me. I still buy many games once they get down to $5-$10. God of War and Spiderman were my most recent purchases since they just got down below $10, who knows if I'll ever actually play those.
Interestingly this point:

> more about creating an environment that audiences never want to leave and which constantly sucks them back in

Is basically why I decided to never play a game again. I just won't.

And also why I am getting stressed when I see partner starting a game, cause periods of addiction and consequential sleep deprivation and all that suck not just for gamer.

Much more likely the bad reaction to Eternal Blue.
How many countries do? I take it for granted traveling through Europe, but made the 'mistake' of booking a USA->Peru trip through Mexico City rather than taking a lounger journey through Miami, and had to clear customs and fill out a landing card for Mexico. Then it ended up being the same when transiting through intermediate countries in South America. I have so damn many passport stamps from just one trip, where I'm much more accustomed to shengen and EU travel in general.
NYT Review: Soon a Robot Will Be Writing This Headline
I've always wondered how meat from endurance hunting tastes. I imagine it's pretty gamey considering what stress does to deer and rabbit meat.
For example:

Have you ever thought about how school buses are routed? Every school day, every bus has to pick up some number of children, and then drop them off at a school on time. Ideally, the correct school. Some children have to walk to meet the bus, which must be taken into consideration because you don't want a young child walking close to dangerous areas, and then there are disabled children who need special buses. Deciding who walks, who gets to take a bus, and who in is some special circumstance is a logistical-legal interface which gets quite involved.

Making that all happen isn't just one job, it's multiple, especially taking into account the fact there's software to help which must be made, tested, and deployed, and which users must be trained on.

My point is, to the average person, adult or child, that whole little world collapses down to "school bus driver" and that's it. The companies which make the software I mentioned advertise, sure, but not to individuals, and school districts have no reason to advertise how, precisely, the sausage gets made, so this little world stays mostly hidden, unless the district offers parents branded software so they can track their children to and from school.
your readme still mentions needing a mongo for scheduling if not on heroku. not sure if that's something that didn't get changed or still true.

Also, for those of us who never used OhLife the readme doesn't really tell me what it does.
The best case against panpsychism I believe was advanced by complexity theorist Joe Norman: it's not unreasonable to believe that "consciousness" emerges at some levels of a complex system and not at others. No, we can't explain _why_ this is - since we hardly understand complex systems - but we do understand that phenomena exists (emergence) at some scales and not at others. Consciousness could be one of them.
Interesting! At first I thought it was typed on a broken macbook keyboard.
Honestly what games have 20 minute updates so often? I havent played a game like that in a while. I can only think of MMOs doing this.

I agree as well though, keyboard and mouse is the superrior interface for me.
The author has an unusual water cooler. I pulled the viewership stats and well under two percent of the population watches "The Bachelor", so in somewhat more than 49 times out of 50, a water cooler discussion about legacy media would be met with "huh?".

According to some Google research, there are typically around eight million concurrent fortnite players, which implies for every two people watching The Bachelor, there are three people playing fortnite.

(Edited: I made a major math error in that Bachelor is a special weekly event, and those fortnite events pull more like 10M concurrent, whereas I was comparing regular gameplay numbers. So comparing "weekly special events" across media formats, its more like there's about five fortnite players for every two bachelor viewers.)

The odds of a water cooler conversation about "So... tilted towers, or the dusty divot?" are about 50% more likely to be successful than something Bachelor inspired like "So... Peter or Colton?"

(edit: actual number closer to 250% as per above edit. In summary you can ignore legacy media and just talk about modern video games when you're trying to socialize, especially if both parties are non-senior citizens)

I will say the pacing of the experience is kinda the same; about 99% waiting and listening to sizzle, and about 1% steak where its actually interesting.
I drive a 2007 Honda Accord. It has a little over 100k on the odometer. I'll probably still be driving it until EVs really take over the mainstream.
There is also chargeback fraud and merchant equipment and maintenance. The owner of a chain of gas stations in Florida sued Visa for refusing to certify his new chip installation when chip transfers were coming around. Without being able to take chip cards he would be liable for every fraudulent card swipe where as liability for chip transactions are with Visa under their new rules.

But otherwise you are right. Plus register employees need cash bonds I believe for insurance.
Maybe not stones, but what about plants?

I'm a bit confused. You'd go to the United ticket counter in person but then don't go to united.com when asked to book online?

May I ask why that wasn't your first choice for this particular incident?
>you're talking about millions of dollars

I never meant millions of dollars. This argument applies to middle class incomes too.
That's also basically the same syntax as doing it in JS, aside from the lack of builtins:

import { range } from 'ramda';

range(1, 6)
.filter(i => i % 3 === 1)
.map(i => i * i)
.reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0);

Or, if you're using the pipeline operator (experimental, stage 1, nobody can quite decide on exactly the syntax but this gives the rough idea):

import { range, sum } from 'ramda';

range(1, 6)
|> x => x.filter(i => i % 3 === 1)
|> x => x.map(i => i * i)
|> sum
This is a really nice argument and I hope that Kevin and others continue to pursue it. However, I think there is a subtle flaw in the presented argument that is parallel to issues illuminated by Goedel's incompleteness theorem. The problem, I believe, is with the assertion:

> 1. The many-worlds interpretation is true.

> 2. Consciousness experiences the reality in which it lives the longest.

> If all the previous assumptions are true, then at least one of these two must be false.

Both of these statements can be simultaneously true if we allow for a third possibility that is logically consistent with the entire argument:

3. Having near logical certainty and awareness that quantum immortality is true is fundamentally incompatible with living on the subjective immortal multiverse timeline.

This would actually be a robust assumption to have explicitly included at the start, as it also makes intuitive sense. Afterall, if you absolutely knew that quantum immortality was true, then you could (and likely would) walk around taking obviously foolish risks without ever experiencing any consequences. Such a universe would basically lack a coherent sense of cause-and-effect from your subjective point of view. And if it was a universe where cause-and-effect don't hold for you, then how could you have logical certainty about anything?

This means that if quantum immortality is true, you can never have logical certainty of its truth.

This is very similar to how Goedel's incompleteness requires that there be true statements that can't be proven as true because the existence of an explicit proof would negate the statement itself, breaken the consistency of the system of logic (and, hence, making it incomplete by necessity).
offloading liability for cash tickets (terrorism) onto someone else.
I can see where you might feel this way. I recommend giving it another try and come at from two considerations. The first is observing their experimental designs. They are very clever and well described. The second is the extent to which these experiments have been replicated with consistent results using populations with a range of socioeconomic and cultural differences.

Given the consistency of these experimental outcomes, may help to explain his authoritative tone. After all, he won a Nobel prize in economics which is completely outside his domain expertise.

If that is not enough to entice you to give it another go, consider the book, The Undoing Project, by Michael Lewis. Lewis, in his highly researched and using detailed anecdotes describes how Kahnemans and Tversky collaboration initially began as a collaboration around understanding the decision making process in circumstances where there is a high degree of uncertainty and acquiring additional information is not feasible. The Khanamen/Tversky collaboration is described as a deep collaboration where neither man claims credit for their respective contributions. Only both minds together could have produced their research findings.

Lewis also describes how many reviewers of his book, Moneyball, expressed the many parallels between Kahnemans/Tversky's research and themes covered in Moneyball. Lewis was not familiar with this research when he wrote Moneyball. It was not until others pointed out these parallels that Lewis decided he should engage with Kahneman to write The Undoing Project.
IEX's year-end review of US equity market structure
Does anyone know of a good resource for this?
I use to work in the flight search industry. It is really hard to compete because you simply make nothing off of flights (your big margins are on hotels). I also doubt google let them hang on to the ITA matrix engine API since they seem to be closing that off to everyone. It is sad to see the last option for airbnb search in the metasearch space die off, but there are still plenty of good flight search engines out there.
I read it simply as malicious update passes as from a trusted source due to this vuln and the malicious update runs it's code as part of the update process, not as a buffer overflow or something of that sort.
This "Decline and visit plain text site" button is by far the best functionnality that they could've added
The term resource is dehumanizing because it reduces a person to something that exists merely to extract value from. Stakeholder is just a role a person can assume and doesn't really have any negative connotations other than being a bit jargony to some.
If you use your own VPN to home then you can access everything on your home network without setting up port forwarding, if you have stuff like that. I used to but not these days.

You could also have the PI run a VPN client and connect to a privacy-promising VPN service, effectively ‘bouncing’ off home.

Not sure if that is even technically possible without pain, or why you wouldn’t connect directly to the privacy-promising VPN.
True, but then it's on MailChimp to prove it. They're definitely open to arbitration. I wouldn't want to be in that position.
I find that Lex often side-steps technical depth and wanders into the philosophical side of things. He has the opportunity to ask diving questions but he simply scratches the surface with nearly every guest. It's not entirely his fault, he's under time constraints but I'd hope for more intellectual stimulation.
That said, I do appreciate his efforts and he seems like a genuinely nice fella.
I wish that there were better ways to expose all this to high schoolers. Career fairs or guest speakers don't cut it.
How much of the web depends on User Agent header?

They are not. Fortnite and Minecraft have cross-play with consoles and PC.
Almost looks written hastily in one editor then copy-pasted into the website.
You are inappropriately equating the termination of a contract with a breach (= a violation) of the contract. The Mailchimp terms of service allow the company to terminate the contractual relationship at any time [1] -- they did not breach the contract by choosing to terminate it.

> "It’s also obviously illegal"

I'm not sure it's as obvious as the author assumes. In the shopping sector, there's a concept of 'minimum advertised price' that every online store respects, which is set by manufacturers under the same carrot-stick arrangement (i.e. it's the price the manufacturer believes would drive the value of the entire market sector down if it were common, shopping aggregators aren't allowed to show products below that price, and if they do the manufacturer cuts the high-density pre-digested feed of feature descriptions for the product).

It's clearly anti-market practice (in the sense that it adds information asymmetry between some part of the market and consumers in an attempt to keep prices higher), but it's being done by hundreds to thousands of manufacturers and it's real unclear on what criteria it'd be considered illegal.

Many information asymmetries (even artificial ones) are not illegal, and indeed, even the moral argument for changing the law may not be as cut-and-dry as one assumes at first glance (for example, if sale below M.A.P. drops the bottom out of a market and kills an industry, the product can disappear from common production and the consumer doesn't benefit in the long run).
I loved the Dear Nick idea, the weekly script, and sharing the most intimate notes with your closest friends. Good work.

Second time for making it genuinely easy to use and setup myself.
It does allow you to modify TLS streams (the WU downloads), and code signing (checking that a binary can run), but it is unclear if any of the trusted WU validation keys (confirming the update is from a signed manifest) are ECC.

So: maybe.
What good alternative to MailChimp would you suggest?
The article is contrasting it with just general TV (or movies/shows/netflix/etc...) Basically video, but non-interactive.

I had the same feeling though, I didn't know what "Video Gaming" was taking over (my immediate thought was non-video gaming and quickly decided that betting at a horse race or a slot machine wasn't the comparison at hand here.
Well, semantics are stretching at that level a bit because while at sub-Plank it would still be technique/technology involved, I'm not 100% sure it can be called machinery. I don't discard that it could be machinery at our newtonian scale that creates an environment where that ultra-micro thing happens tho.
Wow. Fixed within 12 minutes from notification in an online forum to production. I am impressed.
That's an extremely niche transaction and when I'm waiting to check my bag I'm glad I don't have to wait for someone who can't use the website to try and book a trip. I can't believe you waited and were told to go to the website and decided to wait again just to make sure. What's wrong with united.com?

If it's through my usual airline I just book through the site or app, it takes a few seconds as they already have all of my information from pre-check to billing. Otherwise Google Flights is a great search interface and gives you a link to book directly through the airline.
For the downnvoters that don't believe me, go read Brave Browser's research into this.

Are we including html and css on that list? I'm not sure webgl is capable of replacing them. Browsers would need to expose some sort of 2d drawing layer.
