Some of the consumer stuff can be controlled with reverse engineered protocols. I've got some TP-LINK bulbs, configured and controlled entirely with Free software. They're on an isolated network with no Internet access, of course.

DIY seems eminently possible with ESP32 etc, but mains power means I'd rather buy something off the shelf from a longstanding brand.

I doubt this will move the needle for consumer manufactures to embrace it, but it works right now (and is more responsive than X10). We're all cyber-gleaners until (hopefully) the market demands open standards.
Cumulative fatigue damage goes up as the cube of the stress, if I recall correctly.
JS isn't the bottleneck, the DOM is. A new framework isn't going to solve that.
Svelte comes close, stencil.js looks to have a focus on PWA's. I've played a bit with svelte and want to try stencil

My one issue with PWA's is iOS doesn't support all the features.
Just wondering, IANAL, if Microsoft would be afraid of some type of class action lawsuit if buying the domain.
Buying it could maybe be seen as taking responsibility for the error earlier committed and could open up a can of worms for Microsoft. In any case, I am sure Microsoft have their reasons for being quiet; it would be an easy problem to solve after all.
Was looking for something exactly like this the other day. Wanted to share a short story but outline.com's default font looks wonky in polytonic Greek. This one works great, thanks.
Sure, and that is besides the point. Liberal western democracies are not perfect, but they get a few things right and this is one of them.

I believe that children are not cattle, and I would keep believing that even if 100% of everyone else thought otherwise.
100ms is too slow for e.g. a pen on a touch screen. The ink will lag behind the pen.

Wait, you can use scp as a protocol?!
> O’Connor said he hopes Microsoft Corp. will buy it, but fears they won’t and instead it will get snatched up by someone working with organized cybercriminals or state-funded hacking groups bent on undermining the interests of Western corporations.

I think I'm well covered... and no, it isn't, not if you know the person who is going to buy it is going to use it criminally.
I don't know. Having an "80% solution" but not needing to support or fix it is not such a bad price to pay. Also this seems to be a bit skewed towards large networked solutions.

I stand half the time (my desk is adjustable). When sitting I lean far back and slide in to avoid putting too much pressure on my lower back. Sitting up straight for long periods is unhealthy. The ideal angle is between 120 and 135 degrees. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/6187080.stm

You could already remove notepad if you really really wanted to. Encouraging it has upsides and downsides, and I am very far from convinces that the upsides outweigh the downsides.

I guess my point is that it is not purely positive, so listing a very tiny positive is not enough to make this a good feature.

Especially if you follow the rule of thumb that every feature starts at negative one hundred points, because extra complexity has to be earned.
But this only hurts M$FT and their customers. This isn't a new highway or magical Soviet killing invention. Government level entities have zero business getting involved.
I do agree with you, and I was lured into reading it because of that. However, this seems like a nice introduction for beginners. Maybe it should be tagged as such.

I can make as many As needed and they are secure. Storing secrets is a challenge, for this I use a Password manager, they can store secrets securely and distributed.
> No means no.

Local leaders don't have direct control over the removal of someone's membership record, and that's a reasonable safeguard against local leaders/members (deliberately or accidentally) performing such a significant action on behalf of potentially hundreds of other members. Most companies operate under similar safeguards when it comes to data security and deletion requests (requiring some kind of procedure rather than hearing you just say the magic words "delete my account" and not even verifying your identity). I imagine the church is legally required to keep some of that data for tax and reporting purposes, so it's not quite as straightforward as it might sound.
Reading this, it really seems like you entered this conversation by amplifying someone who was mocking the thread for expressing safety concerns with laser cutters, and closed it out by telling a story about how you quite probably permanently injured yourself with a laser cutter.
Fish get it from algae. You could go right to the source and eat algae as part of your standard supplementation.
Think of a different website: maybe goggle.com (no idea what's on this domain), seems like a reasonable typo.

Would you be bothered if your computer or network was sending emails to whoever "goggle" is, not "google"? Should goggle be penalized for receiving things you freely sent to them?

The problem is more you're sending data you don't mean to than that someone owns the place you're sending it.
I wouldn’t bother.

Those switches only work with a router that actually creates the vLANs. I use one with pfSense, running on a small box with a used Intel server NIC. So I have a mix of LANs and vLANs to keep stuff more or less isolated. If I want WiFi, I just stick an Alfa AP on one.

In any case, you're counting on the router to keep one LAN/vLAN isolated from the others.
Perspectives like this and others are one of the many reasons I greatly enjoy HN. I didn’t even consider the situation in this way, yet is makes much more sense than what I constructed in my head. Thank you for that.

Would like to add that I also share your wonder. To me, this needs to evolve to anecessity for them (ICANN, in terms of ability) rather than just an “if”.

Please forgive me my lack of context surrounding this, but would love to learn more about why Corp.com is being sent various data (some sensitive, as mentioned in the article) from various parties in the first place. Did it use to serve a purpose for MS or other?
I think you make a great point. I agree that waiting for my computer to boot is a non-issue today. (Other latency certainly isn't)

But my Chromecast takes a very long time to start, modern TVs, Blurays, mobile apps etc.
The problems around data are in general harder to address than the processing part. Most people dabbling in software engineering don't have the skills or attention span to work on those, and most of the issues are already solved by extremely complicated systems (e.g. DBs, Apache projects, ...).

As for 12 factor principles, it was first touted by a PaaS provider. The whole idea is that they take care of the nitty gritty, while you can focus on the exciting (and technically easier) parts of software systems.

They're not shying away from simplicity, but from ambiguity, especially when the range of possible interpretations includes being a jerk. We don't have nonverbal channels to communicate in this format, unlike in person, where positive intent has many easy ways to come across. Here the only channel we have is words, so it needs to be explicit in words. The burden is on the commenter to disambiguate.

Fiberglass would break down and release microplastics, though, so it is not as environmentally friendly as a sunk metal hull.
Ok. You should trust me on this matter because I'm Portuguese. The first thing you need to know is to that in Portugal there is special fish cutlery. There is a special knife. You don’t need it but it helps.

Eating fish takes a lot of skill and practice but the basic procedure is to remove the skin from the grilled fish with ultra care using a fork and knife. This will be very hard at first. It’s a skill.

Then remove whatever is left of the lungs.

You are left with the head, the white meat around the fish bone and the fin.

You will now just pick on the meat and eat it.

In the end you are left with a head, a fish bone and a fin. These 3 should still be connected and intact.

Sardines are the hardest because you will have to do it for 6 to 10 sardines (6 is the minimum acceptable portion).

Start with a big fish like a sea bass or something similar.

Good luck
If a third party got burned, they should turn around and sue Microsoft.

MS deserves some responsibility for causing this. And "take your entire AD network down for some amount of time and break backwards compatibility" is not a reasonably fix.

>This was easy because in those early days the Network
Control Program known as NCP (this was before TCP/IP) would broadcast messages called RSTs to every possible host address on the network when they booted.

Note that NCP used 8 bit host addresses, so it wasn't as if you couldn't write a program to connect to all 256 possible addresses and see if a computer answered. But that would be rude.

I've been working on this for the last 3 year and at least solved the problem for myself. The crux is that there are about 100 programming languages, with a few frameworks each, and a couple of database solutions, with at least a dozen different versions of frameworks and databases that are used in parallel for app maintenance, and a few different platforms to run on. And on top of that developers like to customize their developer environment.

A person can be reasonably confident that their immediate sale of an item is going to go to someone who will use it responsibly... while still worrying about its disposition five or ten years down the line. (Microsoft has already let this problem sit for 26 years, after all.) That still doesn't mean the person has any particular legal or moral responsibility to monitor their original customer indefinitely just because there's a future risk.

That's the important part. I was eating tuna it pretty much every day for about a year until I found out that it was dangerous. They don't even have warnings on the can. Tony Robbins fried his brain doing that[0]. Still just hoping that I didn't do any damage to myself.

The fishing industry lobbies have sued the FDA and other health organisations around the world to prevent then from requiring warnings on the label, and to get them to change the maximum PPM levels:

> However, the fishing industry sued FDA, arguing that the economic impacts of the standard were likely to be too severe. A court agreed, and FDA had to revise the Action Level, raising it to 1.0 ppm, the current level.[1]

> Scientists from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimate that as many as 600,000 babies are born each year at risk of neurological and developmental problems because their mothers have high blood mercury levels from fish consumption.[2]

Guys, take an Accounting 101 class before starting to downvote my questionmark.

I’ll take your equity any time. Your debt not so much.

Burning through other people’s cash on false promises IS NOT the same as having a more equity heavy financing. Either you fund your companies operations through equity or you fund it through debt. So how on earth are you going to fund a company if you don’t want to do equity or debt?

I’m an equity guy. Funded all my shit with my own money and enjoyed the upside. So you’ll get an exclamation mark you can downvote in addition in this post:

You eat the whole thing. It all has just about the same texture. Even the backbone has a barely noticeable crunch as it disintegrates in your mouth.

I agree - shouldn't you feel most proud of the products you've built that help actual people who pay you, rather than your coworkers for which those internal tools wouldn't need to exist if not for your customers.

I'd rather have engineers working on products that customers would miss.
That was in the context of people cashing in on religion, selling their wares in front of the temple. It'd be like him going to a religious bookstore and trashing the place. It was not an indictment on lending money.
He owns it and can offer to sell it at any price. And it sounds like he's certainly helped to keep the security issues contained all this time.

Your statement is completely ridiculous. There's no requirement to "work" or provide benefit to society before you can sell something you rightfully and legally purchased.

Everyone investing in the stock market is the first to buy something at a lower price. Do they not own the stock? What work did they do when it increases in price? Do they have to prove to society that they're a good person when they offer to sell the stock?

>Carl Jung, one of the most prolific psychotherapists of the 20th century, remarked that about a third of his cases were suffering from “no clinically definable neurosis, but from the senselessness and emptiness of their lives. This can be defined as the general neurosis of our times.”

I don't agree with his methods, but the Unabomber was a brilliant mathematician (and, incidentally, a victim of the MK Ultra experiments) and wrote on this subject in his manifesto. He observed that our modern lives are far removed from the hunting/gathering of our ancestors. We evolved to seek frequent small stimuli - hunting for mushrooms, picking fruit, occasionally chasing down an animal - and the rewards tended to be immediate and tangible. Now most humans spend all day working in one specialization with intangible rewards that come in the form of payment every few weeks. It's much harder for most humans to find natural meaning in these tasks, and they don't typically feel critical to survival because, well, we really are quite comfortable most of the time!
It seems to do that, but I think it also tweaks the hash function for each newly created map, because in the code linked from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22278753 I'm not getting rotations of the same iteration order when I generate two maps. There doesn't seem to be any randomness in mapiternext() itself.

You could imagine that the hash function itself might do an adequate job of randomizing the order of the cards, though, especially if salted with a per-map salt. SipHash, for example, would probably not have any detectable biases in the distribution of the permutations thus produced. But whatever hash function Golang is using for my structs has an easily visible bias, as described in that comment.
A fair use policy, which you seem to be referring to [1], is pretty standard fare for many 'invididual user' products to exclude heavy-use groups.

However, they could at least define expected and minimum capacity. They might omit it because the business in this – aside from capturing users in their ecosystem – is arbitraging wholesale GPU price against consumer monthly needs, along with scaling the free tier.

I disagree with this categorization. Rephrasing to "people constantly come along..." could make that sentence less personal, sure, but is there anything else about the comment that you would say is not substantive or thoughtful?
A few commentaries and examples. Remember these are not local congregations pushing this, but the central corporation. The item isn't "all Mormons do this" but rather there is a culture that encourages these divisions.
