So, as a Rust Dev by night, golang Dev by day, I'm super happy with his decision.

For all it's faults, golang is a great language for explaining more advanced networking concepts.

I think Rust might be a better language to write a complete version with all the hairiness of the real world baked in, but golang's simplicity makes it a much better language for example code, IMO.

Even the once humble Jeep Wrangler has become bloated.

First, Jeep came out with a 4-door Wrangler. That became a mommiemobile SUV for the Hummer 2 crowd. Then customers wanted more "luxury" - entertainment systems, power windows, sound-deadening, always-on Internet. Now the base Wrangler is over $30K, and hard to get without options you don't need.
It looks like a particularly hideous off brand sticker. This trend of making everything look drab and lifeless can't stop soon enough.
I may live in a bubble, but i keep asking myself why politics and media are so alarmed about this virus. There is such a huge gap beyween actual numbers and precautionary measures that i start to hear people say the only explanation is that politics are hiding the real numbers.

For me, i keep thinking they’re just covering their ass, but did i miss something ?

I've used Anki for about ten years, and I'm going to tell you a huge secret...

There's absolutely no need to "reset". Ever.

If you have only ten minutes to devote to Anki, then only spend ten minutes. If at some later point, you have more time, then spend that time.

Set the maximum reviews per day to something you can do most days -- for me, that's 250 cards. If you're behind, turn off 'new' cards. And eventually, you will catch up.

What if you don't do Anki for a month or two? You still don't need to reset. Anything you remember after that month will have a much longer time until you next see it.

Only use Anki as much as you have time for it. Let it figure out which cards to show you. Resetting messes with the algorithm for which cards to show.

I’ve owned every possible way to make drip coffee at home over the past decade, and Aeropress has three specific advantages to brewing excellent drip coffee that no other method does:

1) It offers pressure extraction by hand, without complicated moving parts or fragility. There is nothing to break on an aeropress.

2) It requires less effort and less time to brew consistently than the other methods. I can pour extract, and clean an Aeropress in the 4 minutes it takes for a dripper to drip, and it tastes the same each time with less precision invested.

3) It can be safely carried anywhere (along with ground coffee) that has boiling water and a mug to press it into, without shattering in your bag. It can be rinsed, shaken dry, and put back into your bag without getting coffee grounds anywhere.

Note that I haven’t used my Aeropress in years because I don’t want the flavor it produces right now (French Press, filtered, approximately). But I could boil water, pull it out of a drawer and use it to make a good cup of coffee in five minutes including cleanup. That’s a high bar to meet.
When you just memorize you lose intuition which is the far more useful portion of learning.
The only things in clear text are your currently IP, the time, and the AES signature. The attacker doing a packet capture already knows your IP and probably owns a watch but it's unlikely they know how to break AES to sign a modified message as you.

This is a vague statement that is just as often untrue as it is true.

It's more of a stereotype to hate on "management" and is lazy thinking.
My mistake, thank you for the correction.
A program I mentioned in another thread, Dynamic Auto-Painter, can do that--but it will stylize the work according to some other preset.
I'm not sure this model scales if you have all the rental, staffing, and admin costs of a giant bookshop next to your cafe.

Indies can make it work because their costs are relatively small, and if they're good local people get attached to them.

Waterstones in the UK can just about make it work, because they choose not-too-large middle class locations and design their interiors to match.

B&N don't seem to have understood the appeal of a cozy vibe. The stores always feel like a book warehouse that's trying to impress you with its sheer scale rather than somewhere you can chill on your own terms.

So it's hard to imagine the same model working for a big corporate paying for big box/mall floor space.
> "Trust" is always used in "Root of trust" and "Trustworthy computing" to mean "deny software freedom to the user."

That's not what "root of trust" means. Root of trust is normally a certificate which signs other certificates. If you trust that top level certificate to be valid, it means you can trust that the certificates signed by it are valid as well. That's all there is to it.

What someone does with the certificates - whether that's signing TLS traffic, or execution attestation is completely separate. I don't think you'd argue that TLS is used to "deny software freedom to the user" - right? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_certificate)

"trustworthy computing" is not a technical term, but a marketing phrase. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trustworthy_computing)

You're probably referring to "trusted computing" which is a very specific use of signing and attestation of computing states. It uses the chain of trust in the same way it uses addition (or substitute any higher level concept you want) - you can't say "addition is bad, because it denies software freedom to the user" in this case.
Simplicity Parenting is an easy and amazing read. The Audiobook is pretty good as well. :)
Normally I would give people the benefit of doubt and say “it doesn’t matter for most practical cases”, but given the purpose of HiddenVM you really would expect them to do better than md5. They’re expected to be on the forefront of these technologies and should set the example, even for something as innocuous as zip file integrity checks.
I believe that throwing money at the problem is counter-productive.

You struggle to commit yourself to so many things, but waving a 100 dollar bill in the air will serve only to attract opportunists who will happily take that money to offer you ever more distractions and diversions.

Trademarks are restricted to a specific type of business. Any of those sites could operate as anything other than software or computer services, which are the likely trademark classes for Facebook. (I didn't look up their mark.)

If one of those similar names puts up a website mimicking Facebook's sites, Facebook can then sue the operators as an unnamed party, and ask the court to order the registrar to reveal the unnamed party's identity, by convincing the judge that it's the only way to reasonably serve the defendants with the complaint.

They cannot preemptively unmask the domain owner with trademark--not until after the trademark infringement occurs.

Facebook is skipping steps, and somehow requiring registrars to determine or presume the intent for the use of a domain while registering the name. That's not how DNS works. It associates names with numbers, so that the Internet can be made out of words. Making the registrar the defendant is abusing the system, and if the court allows it, we all might as well sue Facebook for anything and everything that any of its users do to us on its platform, arguing that they should have known what evils those people would do back when they created their accounts.

Also, "conflating" is not the correct word for the intent I presumed for your sentence. I am dissociating DNS registration from trademarks. This is valid, as DNS is run by ICANN, not the USPTO, or by any other international trademark registration agency. If ICANN chose, it could create top-level domains that correspond to international trademark categories, and automatically tie registered trademarks to those TLDs. It has not. So for now, there is no implicit connection between DNS and trademark. If I register something like coke.etc, and then put up an informational website about carbon fuel, Coca-Cola can't do anything to that domain on the basis of trademark. I have to infringe first.
There are lots of systems inside Google that require consensus. Sorry, I don't have anything to cite, I just know they use it a lot because a lot of my friends, and all of my roommates, work there and we talk about stuff like this.
I am 5'10 and have exactly 5" of headroom in mine, so you might be able to find one that barely fits you. That said, the seats have no adjustment capability, so legroom might be a problem for you.

I'm not trying to be super-imaginative, I'm trying to be realistic. That's the point.

Considering Office 365 is $10/mo (before volume discounts) and is probably the main tool most office workers use, I am having a hard time how on earth you get to $10K/12=$833/mo.

I'm supposed to believe the average office worker uses a total of subscription software that is eighty times more expensive than Microsoft Office?

Drivers expect people to enter intersections from both directions on the crosswalks, which is where normal non-athlete bicycle users need to be for safety.

> Domain name ownership should be public information

Why?
Pretty cool, it seems to use the DOM directly instead of a <canvas> element, amazing it can perform as well as it does with constant css and element manipulation (notoriously slow)

I like that there's collision detection too!
I've never known it to be true. The industry staggers the editions - i.e. makes readers wait - precisely because there are much bigger margins on hardbacks and trade paperbacks, so they sell first to the enthusiasts and fans who must have the latest X now, and/or want a collectable.
Not to mention that whatever executive gave the order to work from home is going to be really upset at the people that ignored them.
What's fascinating about this is they found masks/respirators made out of "TD Cerise Multi® teacloth" to be somewhat effective. I looked for this because I saw some things being tossed around about how to make your own respirators, and I looked for a "legitimate" site that explained it. Since this is on the nih.gov site, it is credible.
> (in the same way that land ownership isn't private)

You can make land ownership private by holding it in certain entities. I personally don't think land ownership should be public anyway. Nor do I think home ownership should be public.
The key part of the summary to me is this:

Although the L type (∼70%) is more prevalent than the S type (∼30%), the S type was found to be the ancestral version. Whereas the L type was more prevalent in the early stages of the outbreak in Wuhan, the frequency of the L type decreased after early January 2020. Human intervention may have placed more severe selective pressure on the L type, which might be more aggressive and spread more quickly. On the other hand, the S type, which is evolutionarily older and less aggressive, might have increased in relative frequency due to relatively weaker selective pressure.

It's too early to really know for sure, but one thing that often happens with viruses is that over time, the less fatal versions spread more effectively. It might be that the L type is the more lethal type which killed so many people in Wuhan, and the S type is the more silent type that is spreading around the world with a lower mortality rate.

Probably just wishful thinking on my part, but it's interesting to be aware of the possibility.
I used Live Bookmarks (powered by RSS) to get to this post. I hope not!

I have a pet pipe dream that once symmetric upload/download is a thing vs. ADSL (whether FTTH or 5G effects this, I dare not speculate) in 10-20 years, mesh networks and fediverse style stuff will have their greatest opportunity in years to leverage open protocols like RSS, Delta.Chat's chatting over autocrypt-encrypted emails, chat-over-Wifi-SSID and more to split open the walled gardens that people are in mainly because of their network effects and lack of a convenient alternative.
We abandoned it due to lack of ecosystem support. We originally picked it for general ETL / analytics / preprocessing data viz when opencl vs. nvidia for commodity data parallel hardware ( = GPU ) was unclear, and as a long option in case FGPAs would ultimately make sense. But the CUDA software stack's community + Nvidia investments eventually converted us.

Interestingly, we now exclusively use high-level data parallel abstractions like RAPIDS dataframes, so if there was say a Modin->risc-v path, wouldn't be too heavy a lift to port most of our stack. (Though, as is, little reason to.)
In the eighties, my best friend's father was into organic farming in the following manner : he'd squish the slugs he happened to find while walking through his crops and that was his pest control over the top of great land husbandry in the tenth generation. My friend taught himself turbo pascal then vb and the farm tax deduction provided a 286 of my unfulfilled dreams. The son was shortly trading in commodity supplies and even derivatives and taking delivery of GPS equipped combines. But I doubt he could have been successful had he not grown up with his father's wisdom.

> You can argue that the only way to perform a completely accurate UBI experiment would be to run it for at least 60-80 years for everyone.

You could get decent results in less than 60-80 years by granting each participant a fully-funded fixed annuity guaranteeing them a specific income for the remainder of their lives independent of the continuation of the study. Of course, that would raise the cost of the study to something approaching a real (non-universal) BI program.
> so I'm not sure what the relevance of global inequality is to whether or not an individual country does UBI.

Because UBI is a misguided effort. It aims to fix inequality in any given country without addressing the root cause for increased domestic inequality: that low-skilled workers in developed nations are more expensive than low-skilled workers in developing nations in an age of cheap global logistics and telecommunications.

More sustainable solutions would arguably revolve around improving the educational system and revisiting {fiscal, educational, cultural, ...} incentives broadly across society to get the population trained to a a higher average skill level so that they may compete (and hopefully outcompete) for jobs currently performed by equivalent workers abroad.

Such an effort would presumably lead, in the long term, to a higher skilled global population who is equipped to bring about visions of the future. UBI, meanwhile, is tantamount to subsidizing low-skilled workers so they may continue to create little value (in terms of technological advancement and economic progress) and perpetuate the societal imbalances that preclude them from realizing their true potential.

It seems like an easy choice to make, at least if you buy into the assumption that we indeed want to maximize technological advancement and economic progress, and that those are bona fide proxies for improving standards of living and diminishing poverty.

Job interviews should always consider if the correct tool was used for the use case.

So, if someone used k8s where it was not needed, that experience means zilch:

1) it was the wrong tool for the job

2) it was not used at the right scale. So, if I need k8s to manage a really large deployment, someone who used k8s to manage 5 machines does not have the right experience since they never used it at my scale.

I should also say, we have been really cautious not to bring on too many providers. We have people who are interested, but we are on boarding professionals in response to demand (rather than a ton of people up front). We do stay ahead with interviews and keep a list of interested providers who know we will reach out when we need to!

I disagree. Many times when I read technical books I understand the concepts and ideas but I end up forgetting the actual name of the concept or idea. Then when I heard someone talking about it or mentioning somewhere I can't remember which one was it.
The problem with drive encryption at the mainboard level is that it comes with a free side order of vendor lock-in.

Apple is a good example here. You can't even touch the internal storage whether you want it encrypted or not, because all access to the onboard storage is gated by their black box security processor.

I'd rather just forego the silicon and do it all in software, since there's no way to ensure that the OEMs aren't being bastards. Another reason is that the hardware vendor is in a great, centralized position to be backdoored either by hackers or the bad guys with badges.

What I'm really looking for when I go to a bookstore is a place to relax. I want to sit somewhere comfortable, be able to use my computer, and, when the urge comes, be able to browse books.

To that end, B&Ns with Starbuckses are pretty good. Would love to see an expanded seating area, better seating (arm-chairs, couches), coffee tables instead of just 'meal' tables, good outdoor lighting and/or non-harsh lighting (closer to the red spectrum than the blue), and interesting layouts.

Does anyone else feel the need for something like this in their community? In the city I live in, the only public places that are remotely like this, and allow me to sit for long periods of time someplace comfortable, are Starbuckses and the one B&N. Even other coffee shops don't have the ambience and comfortable seating of some Starbuckses. And our library has incredibly harsh lighting. I'm either stuck at home, at the office, or a Starbucks. If B&N had a large and comfortable alternative, I'd go there every day. Heck, I'd even 'subscribe' to have access to a place like this.
