Depending on your preferences, it might be worth looking into GNU pass. You have to do the additional setup of syncing/sharing password stores (Keybase can work for this) and users need to have basic knowledge of working with PGP keys. Encryption is done via per-user GPG, which is convenient, easy and secure if you're used to it and frustrating if you aren't already and not willing to take the hour or two necessary to get fully up to speed. There are tons of clients for various platforms and use-cases.

KeepassXC can work fine, but it's not super integrated in terms of alternative clients, CLI, mobile etc. If you go with keepass, make sure to use XC (the most recent community fork AFAIK). Similarly to GNU Pass, you need to sort out syncing yourself and have the additional hassle of maintaining a shared secret, and alternatively a shared keyfile. If one is compromised, you need to make everyone rotate, which in practice leads to lazy teams never rotating keys and even using keys they know probably are compromised already.

LastPass is horrible, in my experience. The web app is incredibly buggy and the only thing that really works somewhat well is the browser extension, which I don't trust much.

1password is a slight step up from LastPass.

I heard great things about BitWarden and it looks compelling but haven't tried it yet.

Hashicorp Vault is great, but IMO not suitable for "manual" credentials and more for provisioning and maintaining secrets that are fetched by your internal services. If you need non-engineers to have access to it for shared web app accounts etc, Vault is probably not a good choice.
Sure, but the page O(1) examples are:

1) Getting the data for a writev() call: Sure, it’s just returning a pointer to an array of iovecs, but someone is going to have to linearly scan that array.

2) Substituting or moving data anywhere in the string: As you say, you can do stuff with the start or end of a (v)string with O(1) but anywhere else will require a linear walk of the data chunks
Liked the topic, though for an early stage startup like mine, we have to kinda do it all by own. Some tricks on getting a resonant team and how to enhance SEO could be more practical.

1password works well for our team of ~20. We set up multiple vaults and give access, where required, to shared resources.

I used 1password before my company did, it works fairly seamlessly with both my personal and company accounts.
Yes, all the major browsers are on board with this plan.

An IETF Best Common Practice document saying to stop using TLS 1.0 (and TLS 1.1 which was rarely used in practice) will probably be published later this year.

I don't get the criticism for Trump. He's just basically saying "don't panic" in his own way. That also seems to be consensus among the experts and on HN, judging by yesterday's "don't hoard" threads... (I disagree, but it seems I'm the minority.)

"A C-rate of 1C is also known as a one-hour discharge; 0.5C or C/2 is a two-hour discharge and 0.2C or C/5 is a 5-hour discharge. Some high-performance batteries can be charged and discharged above 1C with moderate stress."

Unshielded but intact pebbles would emit extraordinarily high amounts of radiation that falls off with 1/r^2 by geometric attenuation. Picking them up and putting them back in a shield would require remote handling (long tools and/or robots).

But once they're all picked up and re-shielded, the radiation would be gone. Much different from spilling a vat of radioactive liquid which is much harder to clean.
That definition of “explosion” also includes correctly functioning rockets. Are you sure it’s a useful definition?

I suffered through a few seasons of having some UI designers who obsessed over doing the _whole process_ despite our target UI was for maybe 6 in-house users and was to expose the front-end on a work-in-progress system that changed heavily over time. I learned two main things from that experience (that likely doesn't apply when you have millions of users):

1. The "sketch" step yields about 80% of what you'll benefit from the whole process. If you can't do anything else, at least do that.

2. Very often, getting something, anything, built and working, and letting your users test and critique it will reveal far more than any amount of thoughtful design process will.
Even if the prices were the same, the public doesn't give a shit how a company treats its workers. The whole premise is flawed.
True Venus' atmosphere is quite hostile, but from what I briefly read Venus quite probably have had a similar atmosphere with Earth (along with Mars) in the early days, before the runaway green-house effect got the best of it, so at least in theory it should be possible to transform it back.

With autonomous robots perhaps it could be done in a span of million years. Maybe. A relatable analogue might be removing liquid from a glass with a tiny straw. Yet I'd think it is easier to remove, than to add material when speaking about terraforming.
Why not? The top of Mt Everest is remarkably similar to Mars surface, for instance. I'd say, tackle the challenges a few at a time, instead of jumping in the deep end!

To go further: if you can't establish a colony on the top of Mt Everest, you haven't a prayer of doing it on Mars where there are all the problems and more.
Neat summary.

I wonder how many encrypted texts they actually got to be able to come up with a decryption technique. Cannot imagine it being too many.
Always a risk, but communication should resolve that (in theory). ie, before you change an entry, jump on Slack etc and say I'm changing the password for X.

Alternatively, have one person who is responsible for changing passwords, everybody else just uses the passwords.
Amazon is certainly in the lead in terms of total locations. All of their locations are stores they own, however. The race right now is to show this tech working in existing stores, with a fairly light (aka scalable) install process. We have multiple installs in existing stores at the moment, running in "shadow mode" to confirm the accuracy is the system. These sites are predicting the carts of hundreds of people a day, and seeing good results.

Worth noting that most APL interpreters and the J interpreter are significantly slower than (most) k/q interpreters. I'm not sure if the performance argument is relevant for all of them.

Arthur Whitney's a biased source, of course, but the kparc site has a bunch of little programs in which he beats the equivalents from rather influential people (like the UNIX/Plan 9/Inferno authors

I'm imagining a way to use solar power to grow hydrogen filled mylar cells at scale in a lake or ocean.

That's an interesting article. I wonder how practical would it be to harvest hydrogen (protons, really) from solar wind using magnetic lensing. Tha same tech could be useful for Mars.

Depending on the shape of the parasol, the same support structures could be used for the lenses, focusing a stream of hydrogen nuclei on a small area of the planet. This focused plasma stream could also compensate some of the forces on the parasol (it'd need to be closer to the Sun than the Sun/Venus L1 point and balanced by light pressure) allowing the parasol to be smaller.
In the 10+ years designing for mostly Software companies [1] (large and small) I found that the most important aspect of Interface design is the continuous cycle of eliminated things. Sketching and planning on paper is nice (and a must), but you are always wrong in the beginning. We usually only work with companies that have a working product, because we found that Interface Design is less critical in the early stages. A good UI can help you grow faster, but not necessarily achieve product market fit. In the beginning, UI isn’t all that important and you can go far with something decent. Once you have a working product and users, that’s when you can start the simplification process in order to pave the road for smoother growth. User Interface design can be summarised as: Eliminating obstacles from the user’s experience and remove as much friction as possible.

Tantalum capacitors break to form a short while essentially any other option breaks and becomes an open circuit.

A short dumps a pile of current across the capacitor. an open circuit usually just means your circuit doesn't work well.

Either way it sounds unsavory.

I think Hawthorn or hibiscus. You can get them certified as USP or cGMP, and/or independently tested by Consumer Labs.

I'm not 100% sure on the mechanism of action on Hawthorn. I've read that it's an ACE inhibitor, but I don't have a good source. But I can see at the very least that it's an elastase inhibitor, which is supposed to be protective against ARDS.

edit: I think proanthocyanidin is the component that is supposed to be an ACE inhibitor.

For those who disagree, please study the coronavirus growth rate when no serious containment measure is implemented then try to provide evidence to the contrary (ie, either containment measures will be sufficient in most countries, or that my predictions above are flawed somehow.)

A scientist recently presented at the AHA meeting with these bullet points:

“- 4.8 million hospitalizations associated with the novel coronavirus

- 96 million cases overall in the US

- 480,000 deaths

- Overall, the slide points out that hospitals should prepare for an impact to the system that's 10 times a severe flu season.”

The figures are just for the US, not the world.

You really can't stop it without more regulation. It is also why Obamacare didn't work for a lot of people, payors simply pulled out of states or raised rates on existing customers.

Although ICHRA is a baby step forward, it is optional. Employers can offer this but they aren't forced, it isn't illegal. We need healthcare to be completely detached from employment. Employers should still be able to contribute to the HSA (no need for separate HRA) just like they do to a SIMPLE/401K and employees can spend it on any medical expenses they want. The HSA is portable and gives people choice.

We also need to move to reference based pricing (1.2 * Medicare) instead of the payors negotiating with each health system. This also gets rid of "out-of-network" as that just doesn't matter. This also removes all the brokers and other rent seekers from the system.

The last thing we need is to stop treating healthcare like insurance. Insurance products are for unlikely catastrophic events. You are going to need a checkup each year and a flu shot and you'll get a sinus infection. These are known and expected events. Being able to pay for these out of HSA gives good savings and insurance can be used to treat things like cancer and hospitalization and knee replacements. Medicare could also be expanded slightly to automatically cover an annual physical and age based cancer screenings. Then health insurance is mostly a risk management construct and since you are likely to stay with your carrier, they are incentivized to get you healthy and lose weight. Today, payors don't want to push on wellness since your employer will switch carriers each year looking for savings and the new payor benefits.
Not really, only if you don't recalibrate every so often... but this can happen in any kind of growth. Even linear growth with unequal coefficients diverges after some amount of time, exponential growth just gets there faster.
"Going forward, only users can install add-ons; they cannot be installed by an application."

Surely that depends on how hard the application wants to try? I suppose they might mean that installing add-ons externally is now unsupported.

The impression that it was 'the stress of being found out' is a novel interpretation to me. I always thought it was about the fact that he has a 'garbage' heart and he's basically actually going at 200% while it appears on the outside as if he's only doing 60 bpm.

Right at the end of his run his real BPM comes out because the recording from Jerome (Jude Law) reached its end and that's when he stops the exercise.

I am half with you on this but thinking to SQL, its probably harder to find bugs in SQL than in an imperative language language, but its also a lot harder to create bugs - its a declarative language so doesn't allow you to create whole classes of bugs that you will see in an imperative language.

Personally I try to push logic towards the database for the very reason that it's less buggy in general in my experience.
Well, bad management always makes for good movie plots!
Well yes. Here on earth there are indeed many people who think they want that. Mars one proved at least that.

But I am not so sure, if they will be also so happy on mars, if they really have to be underground allmost the whole time and teleoperate the robotic exploration and mining on the surface etc.

For me the dark winter already is every year challenging. But being in a dark winter so to say forever, would not be bearable for me.
Technology may play a role. Reaching for a smartphone is easier than recalling a fact from memory. Who remembers phone numbers anymore?

I wouldn't guess that memory is the issue so much as less exposure to this type of information in the first place. We no longer aimlessly browse stores checking everything out; now we just search for specific items, buy them, and move on.

I can probably recall the prices of things I've actually purchased about as well as past generations, but anything beyond that is basically a wild guess.

Unless you're planning to build a literal castle in the sky out of convenient gasses, this is completely unworkable.

Even at that altitude the cloud layer is still very turbulent and very toxic, and no structure will be absolutely gas-tight. And if the temperature is 75 °C outside, it's going to take insane amounts of energy to keep the inside of your hab cool - especially if it's made of metal and not rock. (A thin skin obviously isn't going to work.)

You can't mine Venus, and you can't explore the surface. All you can do is drift over the cloud layer.

So there's no point - except maybe niche tourism, niche planetary science, and possibly niche super-weapons research.

And after all that, you still have the problem of moving mass to/from your colony. 30-odd miles gives you a bit of an energy boost, but getting out the gravity well still isn't cheap or easy.
