Here's a post that has been on HN before covers what phase of technology adoption we're in.

https://idlewords.com/talks/ancient_web.htm

Basically we've seen this kind of cultural manipulation on a massive scale before more than once. The last time it happened the manipulators were people like Joseph Goebbels. Remember the first thing the Nazi's did when they annexed a territory was to seize all forms of mass communication. Radios were replaced with new radios that could only be tuned to Nazi stations.

But I heard from a talk given by a Hungarian Jew, Robert Holczer, who was secretly working for the Antifa in the city of Prague that was under control of the Nazis in the 40s. Even when listening to Nazi radio with their propaganda, he could tell when the tide had turned against Germany. There are always clues, he said; He figured out that the Normandy Invasion was successful by listening to Nazi Propaganda, for example.

Eventually the culture-hacking turns against the hackers.
There is a difference between energy density and power density. Energy density is how much charge is stored in the battery.
Power density is how much electricity can be delivered per period of time at a point of charge.

A battery may have 2,000 milliwatts of charge, but can only deliver 500 milliwatts per hour; thus, it could run at full blast for ~4 hours or half at ~8 hours if the power density is not dependent on the charge. Batteries normally have a power curve, the amount of power you can draw depending on the charge in the battery. When you over draw the power on a battery, the tendency is for the voltage to quickly drop.

Cycling the battery and age both play in lowering the energy and power densities, but they are not one-to-one correlated. This is why you'll see people who say that their battery will last to 40% and die. The battery's voltage is used to gauge how much charge is left in the battery; however, at that level, the power density has dropped such that any significant draw on the battery causes the voltage to plummet and the phone shuts off.
Making false and misleading claims to consumers. The suit alleges Coke & Pepsi (and others) engaged in consumer-targeted campaigns to label their plastic packaging as "recyclable" even though they knew they were producing more plastic packaging than all of the recycling facilities in the US combined could have possibly processed.
> what you want is a place to input your username and password

You'd be best without a username a password, just a code.
What about intent?

They covertly slow down your phone yo mask that it is defective and needs a new battery.

This way they avoid having to deal with warranty and bad press.

Or design a phone with removable battery or at least a decent battery.
On a bit unrelated note, if you want to handle very large Bloom filters (billions of entries with low false positive rates) there is an open source Java library that can help you to do that: https://github.com/nixer-io/nixer-spring-plugin/tree/master/....

There is also a command line utility that accompanies the library: https://github.com/nixer-io/nixer-spring-plugin/tree/master/....
How to deploy on remote Docker hosts with Docker-compose
This version isn't any different than the normal puppeteer you use with Chromium. However, doing a quick search I found these two methods which you may be able to use to automate uploads:

> The individual writing the algorithm certainly can have access.

Sure he can have access, but looking at the algorithm you can prove without a doubt that the algorithm couldn't have access to it.

> If I copy a song, I can't say that the tool I used didn't have access as a defense because that makes no sense.

You could have given access to the song to the tools that you used though.
Please don't spread lies. It is based on Chromium.
Some may not believe in government. I believe in government, because we are government. Running for office is no different than chasing a round of funding: you're selling an idea. A startup will never be as impactful as public policy with nation state fiscal policy backing it up. Seek office, not funding.

I used the following in q to download and load the data into a disk object I could mmap quickly:

\wget https://downloads.pwnedpasswords.com/passwords/pwned-passwords-sha1-ordered-by-hash-v5.7z
\7z -so e pwned-passwords-sha1-ordered-by-hash-v5.7z pwned-passwords-sha1-ordered-by-hash-v5.txt | cut -c1-40 | xxd -r -p > hibp.input
`:hibp 1: `s#0N 20#read1 `:hibp.input

This took about an hour to download, an hour to 7z|cut|xxd, and about 40 minutes to bake. At complete, I have an on-disk artefact in kdb's native format. I can load it:

q)hibp:get`:hibp; / this mmaps the artefact almost instantly

and I can try to query it:

q)\t:1000 {x~hibp[hibp bin x]} .Q.sha1 "1234567890"

Now that's 1000 runs taking sum 5msec, or 5µsec average lookup time! It's entirely possible my MacBook Air is substantially faster than the authors' machine, but I think being ten times slower than an "interpreted language" suggests there's a lot of room to improve!
More of a normal tmux question, but is there a way to input the window number, or is there a fast way to open up ssh to 4 servers numbered sequentially?

pane 4: ssh <server>-4
I really like wireguard, but one thing that bugs me is the fact that it's layer 3 (an ip tunnel) and has no code to support layer 2 (ethernet MAC tunnel). The downside for me is that you have to manage static ips in the configurations (specifically it's not compatible with ipv6 slaac and NDP). There is https://git.zx2c4.com/wg-dynamic but it's very experimental at the moment.

The level 3-only tunnel is motivated as "the cleanest approach for ensuring authenticity and attributability of the packets" (in the whitepaper), but in fact every claim and routing algorithm described (needed since the tunnel is many-to-one) would work equally well substituting "ip address" with "mac address" (i may be missing something, but for sure it's not explicit anywhere). And indeed imho it would be less surprising to have an "allowed mac address" option in the configuration than an "allowed ip address": it's already common practice to white-list mac address of physical endpoints (in office). I'm toying with the idea of forking the driver code to adapt it to ethernet frames as i don't think it would need any big rewrite but i'm realizing my inexperience in writing kernel code.

I'm guessing they're capping at 1k, because that's the resolution of the millisecond timer?

I occasionally still run 3dMark03 to compare my modern PC's raw performance to one of the first rigs I built (150k now vs. 3.1k then), and getting more than 1k fps seems possible?

DefenseStorm is a cybersecurity startup that helps banks and other financial institutions manage the deluge of security data that they produce. We take all of the security critical information and then alert on what's important, generate reports, and show cool dashboards.

I got my job here through an HN Who's Hiring post 4 years ago, and I love working here. Strong engineering culture - weekly hour 'topic sync' to share knowledge, minimal meetings, flexible hours/wfh, happy customers that give good feedback, and interesting problems to solve. Sales have been great in the past year, and we just moved into a new office near the ferry terminal with waterfront views!

We are looking to add a third member to our DevOps Team to improve our bus factor, help manage our Elasticsearch cluster hosted on AWS, use Terraform and Chef to keep our Java microservice architecture happy, and otherwise make our systems run smoothly and securely.

Our stack includes AWS, Elasticsearch, Terraform, Chef, Sensu, InfluxDB, Postgresql, and Phabricator. Ideal candidates will have some experience in several of these and be good at grokking docs to quickly get up to speed on the ones they haven't used.

> Friday's settlement covers U.S. owners of the iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s, 6s Plus, 7, 7Plus or SE that ran the iOS 10.2.1 or later operating system.

The settlement should cover all iPhones and iPads, not just the ones affected by CPU throttling. iOS 4 made anything older than iPhone 3GS nearly unusable. iOS 9 did the same for my iPad 2. I completely gave up on Apple mobile devices because of this.

Some neuroscientists having an interesting take on the election does not imply that elections are a neurological topic. Philosophy is open to contributions from amateurs.

Yeah the lack of self-referential structs can be very annoying at times and there’s no great solution to it at this point (disclaimer: haven’t tried rental properly yet as it looked complex at first glance).

On the flip side I am very happy to trade that papercut for the simplicity offered by Rust’s move semantics compared to the minefield of c++.

After having read both, the only thing the ties the two article together is HN and the seemingly word Texas.

The two articles describe two completely different problems. The parent article discuss the issue of voting sites being used to target specific voters. Rather then trying to maximum voting participation, the article describe the problem of targeted desirable voting populations at the exclusion of others. By removing temporary polling places and enforcing a rule that all polling places must remain open for all 12 days of early voting, it forces polling stations to focus only in areas with high populations.

The submitter article writes how texas is closing down most polling stations, making it more difficult for people to vote and arguably benefiting Republicans. It is saying that more voting locations close to Latinx neighborhoods got closed than in non-Latinx neighborhoods, and that Latinx people had to travel farther to vote than non-Hispanic whites. It also writes that places where black and Latinx population is growing by the largest numbers have experienced the vast majority of the state’s poll site closures.

Two different completely different problems, two completely different articles, discussing the same event. Thanks to HN I at least see a bit more from multiple sides, but it demonstrate quite well the issue with news article like this.

I would like to be able to delineate strings with any character(s) of my choosing. The default could be single or double or triple quotes, but don't force me. I am sick of escaping characters in literals, I'd rather define a delineator that I know isn't in the string. Same for templating.

let name = "Jane";
let str = s{}:John said "Don't do that, {name}!":s

I would also like a JSON-like shorthand for declaring nested structures, without having to define each individual component separately. Eg:

struct Person {
user: {string name, int age},
address: {string street, ...}
}
let p = new Person(<json>);
print(p.user.age);

Convenience with arrays (python slicing is nice), maps, and primitive types pay huge dividends.

arr.first();
arr.last();
arr[5,-5]; //5th to 5th to last

Built-in arbitrary length/precision numbers would be neat.

Besides that, tons and tons of useful libraries: IO, Date, JSON, DB Bindings, etc.

Firefox has only recently really been in the same performance ballpark as Chrome, meaning to get this privacy you had to give up performance. These days the delta is small enough that it shouldn't matter.
Notable things still delaying my switch.

1. Linux. The Linux Firefox app is inferior to the Windows version. The same can't be said for Chrome.

2. Android. Firefox Preview should catch things up, and I think will be stable by the summer. Maybe I'll switch then.

I only have circumstantial evidence of seeing vulnerable family members slide into rabid fanaticism, rambling (nonsensically so) off obviously fake news stories as if they even understood the context. Falling pray to this type of propaganda is not a particularly conservative vs liberal thing from my perspective, it's just that the Conservatives have weaponized misinformation in an organized manner.
Apple Pro Display XDR review: category of one
I never run into this myself in modern C++ and I think it is about what I don't do. This might be similar on some level to the fact that rust constrains programmers purposely. I think both cases are indicative of better programming through avoiding things that are hard to get right and have little to no upside.

I almost never use shared_ptr, since I know the lifetimes of the memory I use. I know the lifetimes because I keep almost all actual memory management within data structures made of mostly STL data structures. The custom data structures don't need destructors because vector<> will take care of it etc. I never use inheritance and never use polymorphism. The core logic then just uses these compound data structures made from STL containers and the lifetimes are frequently trivial.
The problem is that environmental people bikeshed and argue about everything. They don’t like glass or reuse because water is used for washing and you need to haul the empty bottle.

Especially with the rise of e-commerce, there’s no reason why most consumer products couldn’t be delivered in reusable glass containers.

Good quality hard and semi-hard cheese made with rennet should melt and not separate. E.g. gruyere, cheddar, gouda or emmental, particularly the protected varieties.

If good cheese didn't melt it would probably not be considered an attractive characteristic and it would not be something people bother to try and simulate with additives.
The battery was too a bit too small, and this was a design flaw.

But overall, I think third-party developers are more at fault. The biggest reason that old phones get slow is because third-party developers get new phones and don't worry as much about optimization for older models.
I've lived your exact scenario. I left the shit show company and it is not listed on my CV. Actually, there are 5 jobs like that which are not on my resume.

All evidence I've seen indicates that the right wing engages in this kind of manipulation at a scale much more massive than other political groups.
>no matter how well known you think it is.

May be this is specific to I.T or Computer Science? Where there are thousands of abbreviations and acronyms which itself is often the name people use. SQL, DRAM, CPU, HTTP, SRAM, FPGA, URL, TCP/IP, UDP, NAT, DHCP, GPL, etc.

I mean if you are discussing technicals of Neural network you expect your audience to at least know CPU, GPU, and FPGA. And if you are discussing software development I hope I dont have to spell out GPL.

So I dont think it is a form of eletism/knowledge gate keeping. In the age of internet you can search those "acronyms" meant without the full name, which isn't something could be easily done 15 to 20 years ago.

In other industry such as Mobile Wireless Networking, those acronyms are often clearly spell out because there are comparatively little of it. FDD, TDD, MIMO, NR or LTE are often spelt out in full when they first use.
Isn't it at least a little scary to you to nationalize the voting process? Would you want a Voting Administration with presidential appointees deciding how to register voters, collect votes, and count them?

I guess other countries do things that way with lots of observers, etc. to try to avoid the worst problems. But I'm not excited about my state/county giving up its role (which it seems to do just fine) under the theory that the federal government will do better in some other state and county that doesn't currently do a good job.
When the phone is connected to a charger, is it drawing power from the wall? Or is it still drawing power from the battery?
Too little and too late. I feel like they lost a whole generation of people.
What’s bad about long weekends?
Their track record.
Victim in Moscow complains to Rostelecom. They provide whatever evidence Rostelecom or Russian domestic law requires. Rostelecom complain to Sprint, who now have two choices:

1. Pay the fine for letting their customers send spam calls to Russia.

2. Ignore it, and hope they don't get depeered by Rostelecom.

If they choose the first option, they are faced with two new choices:

1. Stop the buck there, do not contact Joe, eat the loss.

2. Contact Joe and tell him to pay them $100 or get cut off.

This would lead to a self-regulatory process: bad actors would get depeered from the retail phone network, so scammers could only call other scammers.

EDIT: To clarify, Sprint wouldn't have any legal/criminal responsibilities here, everything beyond the last mile is purely voluntary, but they might have a contract with Rostelecom. If Sprint choose the second option, Rostelecom might be able to sue them in the Kansas courts for breach of contract.
Absolutely. It was classic misdirection. They even managed to get people to pay for replacement batteries by offering them at a "discount".
