The biggest thing hindering the Germans was organizational - they had lots of units that competed with each other. A good list of their success https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_code_breaking_in_World_...

The Germans weren't the only ones with internal division sapping effectiveness; on the eve of Pearl Harbor the US managed to crack the Japanese diplomatic cipher. However, two teams, nominally organised and housed together but still vying with one another, tried to own it exclusively. To keep things fair, the navy team and the army team took turns cracking it. There was a lot of heat about who knew what when later.

As the Germans approached Moscow, the British Embassy evacuated. Years later, a bug was discovered cemented into the roof of the cipher room, presumed to have been planted while the embassy was evacuated. So clearly, despite the present danger on the outskirts, some people in Moscow were thinking of the future wars...

My notes on who broke Enigma when and where https://williame.github.io/post/145745642718.html

Someone who doesn't get as much attention as Alan Turing and Gordon Welchman is W. T. Tutte. His feat of breaking the Fish cipher is perhaps the greatest mental gymnastics ever?

An unsung hero during this period was Arne Beurling in Sweden. I came across the T52 in a museum in Stockholm and was completely surprised. Its a variant of the Fish cipher and the Arne broke it just like Tutte did in England. I'd have to look it up but perhaps Arne was first? Amazing too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arne_Beurling

I'd love to hear about things I've missed!
First, it's about an order of magnitude worse in terms of effects than the flu on average. The "mild" category for Covid-19 includes walking pneunomia which is very much no fun and much more unpleasant than a normal flu, though you can stay at home and ride it out unlike the "severe" or "critical" covid-19 symptoms which require a hospital and oxygen for the severe cases or serious ICU measures for the "critical" cases.

Second, it's a lot more transmissable than the flu and nobody is vaccinated against it. So while flu hospitalizations are going to be spread out across months if we just let Covid-19 run it's course half the population will end up being infected at some particular week. And 10% of people will need hopsitalization. And our hospitals can't cope with anything like that number of people and you'll be seeing a lot more than the default 1% of those infected die.

We really need to take this seriously.

EDIT: I misremembered mild/severe/critical as mild/moderate/severe then corrected it.
UV-C is completely absorbed by atmospheric oxygen and ozone - none reaches the ground.

That's okay for many people knowing they are in the forefront of humanity's interplanetary expansion. Also, probably whatever they do will enter the history books as epic heroic acts.
if you have a drone or have a friend with one, it's pretty easy to do this with aerial photogrammetry. Something like dronedeploy.com makes this very easy with a DJI drone.

Draw the area you want to capture as a polygon on google maps in DroneDeploy, deploy the drone, off it goes, takes the photos and lands without you needing to do anything. Then just upload the photos, and you get a 3d model processed on their servers an hour or so later.
Yes but water makes a very effective heat sink.
It is not different from just creating money, it is exactly how money is created. Please read the PDF linked by yrro upthread.
So wait ... we need something that can rapidly absorb power, and rapidly disperse power. And the criticism is that this can explode ? An explosion is simply rapidly dumping energy in something that's a gas or about to become a gas. Not that other forms of rapidly dumping power are any less damaging, btw.

So, yes, they can explode. That's actually pretty much the point.
You guys know about threading, right? In fact, the fastest-growing type of tweet in terms of popularity is the 100-tweet extended thread.
It doesn't matter though, the tracking domain would run in the container and github outside it.

> The other major issue is that there's no way to have links outside those domains open outside the container, so whenever I click a link on Gmail that goes to Github, Github opens in the Google container and I always have to copy/paste the address to a new tab.

I had the same problem so I made a small extension that does that:

There are a variety of mechanisms available to fund water access including taxes, and access fees, and govt re-imbursement. As the cost to the government is undoubtedly higher to provide bottled water to affected households that cannot pay or deal with the hospital bills for dehydration, it makes fiscal sense to simply keep the water on.

In Massachusetts electric companies are prohibited from cutting power 9 months out of the year for similar reasons - cutting electric heating in -20 F would introduce other costs in addition to the moral obligations.
Hi, I'm not really much into SendGrid/Mailchimp and alike, but isn't this their main purpose? Have you tried to contact SendGrid and report your issue? As far as I know, these companies have agreements with each other to NOT BLOCK their manages mail addresses/IPs by default.
I also wish that the basic container feature worked like this.

In the meantime, I am very happy with the unofficial "Google Container" addon [1], which is just a copy of the Facebook container that works its magic on Google domains instead.

Give it a try. It doesn't interfere with the official Facebook container addon.

Member-by-member sub-equals might make more sense in some situations, but not all (as the article discusses, equality is context-dependent). By making equals() an instance method, encapsulation is broken by tying an external concern (equality) to the internal implementation of a class. It would have been better if Object had no instance equals() or hashCode() method at all, with static methods providing non-reference-equality semantics. Something like:

@FunctionalInterface
interface Equivalence<T>
{
boolean equals(T one, T other);
}

@FunctionalInterface
interface Comparison<T>
extends Equivalence<T>
{
int compare(T one, T other);

@Override
default boolean equals(final T one, final T other)
{
return compare(one, other) == 0;
}
}

@FunctionalInterface
interface HashFunction<T>
{
int hashCode(T obj);
}

interface Equalitor<T>
extends Equivalence<T>, HashFunction<T>
{
}

interface Comparator<T>
extends Comparison<T>, Equalitor<T>
{
}

interface Equatable
{
Equalitor<? super Object> equivalence();
}

interface Comparable
extends Equatable
{
@Override
Comparator<? super Object> equivalence();
}

final class Objects
{
static int compare(final Object one, final Object other)
{
if (one == other)
{
return 0;
}

if (one == null)
{
return -1;
}

if (other == null)
{
return 1;
}

if (one instanceof Comparable oneCmp && other instanceof Comparable otherCmp)
{
final Comparison<? super Object> cmp = oneCmp.equivalence();

if (equals(cmp, otherCmp.equivalence()))
{
return cmp.compare(one, other);
}
}

throw new SomeRuntimeException();
}

static boolean equals(final Object one, final Object other)
{
if (one == other)
{
return true;
}

if (one instanceof Equatable oneEq && other instanceof Equatable otherEq)
{
final Equivalence<? super Object> eq = oneEq.equivalence();

if (equals(eq, otherEq.equivalence()))
{
return eq.equals(one, other);
}
}

return false;
}

static int hashCode(final Object obj)
{
if (obj instanceof Equatable objEq)
{
final HashFunction<? super Object> hf = objEq.equivalence();
return hf.hashCode(obj);
}

return someIntrinsicHashCode(obj);
}
}

Set theory already supposes that sets come before enumeration. I am not sure what the original Italian book is about then. Maybe it is rephrasing this with some added history.

I can't answer your question directly, since we only have 4 people at our company, so not really enterprise scale...

But they did recently introduce a CLI here: https://support.1password.com/command-line-getting-started/#...

That makes me optimistic that you could at least do a fair amount of automation around it. I haven't used it myself yet, so I'm not sure how fully featured the cli is
I figure that a basic podcast probably needs around $50,000 per year to support itself, if a single full-time person is doing all of the research and engineering (including coordinating ads) and paying for the servers. That comes to about $1,000 per episode of a weekly podcast. Harry's would have to sell a lot of razor blades to justify $1,000 per episode -- or even $250 an episode, if there are four ad spots.

A higher-end podcast with a real engineer, research assistants, producer, etc. could easily double or quadruple that figure. Some podcasts are undoubtedly cheaper, being done in somebody's spare time, but most of the ones I listen to (and I listen to a lot of them) involve significant research.
The factor you're missing is the potential for a criticism to advance the discussion.

Everyone believes that they occupy the intellectual high ground, and that it's everyone else who's guilty of confirmation bias and wooly thinking. Therefore, anybody else's accusations of confirmation bias and wooly thinking are merely a product of their own confirmation bias and wooly thinking, and can safely be ignored.

Attacking the methodology mitigates this effect. By demonstrating that they spent serious time digging into it and trying to replicate it, the authors give a strong signal that they're not just exercising in armchair skepticism. This, in turn, lends rhetorical weight to their attack on the premise. Without it, it would be as easy to ignore, and as quickly forgotten, as your average comment on Hacker News.
Lithium batteries don't explode. They melt down and then catch on fire when pierced. You have plenty of time to get away, just don't get stuck right next, under or above them.
It is a stupid human trick - people tend to hold those in power to a lesser standard than those without even when they lack any conflicts of interest.

Whether cultural or genetic there is a clear dynamic linked to history of might makes right - regardless of direction of causation.

Another factor is the failure point of adversarial systems. While having a prechosen defender would be equal the incentives are insanely exploitable. The rich or powerful (being a pillar of the community is a form of power among others) have stronger defenses to force the dotting of every i and crossing of every t even before any corruption.
Combinr that with organizational dynamics that are about diluting and confusing responsibility for self protection - whether it is businesses, church, government, mob, or organized crime.
Launch 12 startups in 12 months
(Previously posted on The Hustle Trends private group)

I’m a French entrepreneur and here what I’m going to do.

A few years ago, my friend Pieter started his challenge to launch 12 startups in 12 months (https://levels.io/12-startups-12-months/). Some others tried it. Recently Jon Yongfook did it (https://blog.yongfook.com/12-startups-in-12-months.html)

I believe it would be much more powerful to launch 12 µ-startups but with cofounders/partners.

The goal is to build 12+ products:
* that can get the first few paying customers in less than a month
* who can be operated with minimum effort, aka on autopilot.

What can you get from it?
* Meet and work with incredible people
* Learning through fast iteration of projects across different markets.
* Live a unique experience.
* A share of the incomes generated.
* Serendipity

What will happen to products after?
* Kill, continue to operate, or sell. Depending on how the product is doing, we don't put ego in the products.

What are you great at?
Selling, Marketing, Storytelling, Building, Design, Coding, …

Join us, and let’s start to ship things.
No lock-in, you can join us only for 1, 2, 3, or all µ-startups.

Most products will fail, but some also can meet a great success.
How many millions of dollars business can we launch together within a year?

After this post we created a Telegram Group.
If you are interested please join us https://t.me/the12startups
If there were no cultural backslash then we would probably already have a McDonalds there :)
That is true but also kind of my point: The epidemic Europe is facing could be the kind of event that triggers the necessary changes and investments for this to type of development to happen. Given Germany's federal-style education system I'm not holding my breath though...
dnscrypt-proxy is already supporting CNAME blocking and full domain based blocking (*.adhost.com), something that is still missing in Pi-Hole.
They are typically exempt in case of natural disasters, war, force majeur, nuclear effects, and a well-thought-out plethora of tail risk events.
Be reasonable. Correctly designed power devices are made to control the rate. Its considered a no-no to go out of control.
> I'd like to live in a world where a virtuous feedback loop would lead to companies treating their employees better and better, but history says that's not the world we live in.

This sort of comment always reminds me of the quintessential answer: "That's funny, I always thought the world is what we make of it."

If the only way we can 'make consumers choose better' is to continually publish and broadcast the worst corporate behavior in order to spur these kinds of shifts, then so be it.

Scream loudly about WalMart subverting local government and historical societies to build a store within sight of Tenochtitlan.

Republish over and over about Amazon's treatment of their fulfillment workers.

Shame them all until the baseline is as much better as we can make it, and keep pushing against the entropy.

That's how we make the world better.
I'm currently trying to get my head around wrapping Pleroma in Docker, as I've everything dockerized and behind a Traefik proxy.

There are still other options than Luxottica, Warby Parker and Zenni. Search for local optometrists that stock eyewear designer brands like Lindberg. You don’t need to buy the Lindbergs (but do try them, they are crazy light and the hinge designs are amazing) but their presence in the store means you have found someone who is not Luxottica exclusive and has some taste in frames. You will typically find style options there that Zenni and WP don’t do, and without needless Prada or Gucci branding. You will pay premium prices still.

Just to lay out another option.
Note that Facebook Container is an external add-on, not included with the default browser.
You’re definitely asking the right questions. The answer is because that’s how things are done.

I agree with “just day one” in general, but do note that if you develop apps or write AppleScript that require permissions it can get pretty annoying as every build asks for permissions all over again. (Actually I’m not quite sure about native apps built from Xcode, but this was my experience with a Qt app I wrote last month.)
It does sound extremely over the top indeed, but it might be the only way to prevent the spreading. It appears that by the time you find the first case, you are too late as the virus has been spreading all over the place. Maybe quarantining everybody, even from area with zero cases, is too much... but at least people should make a strong effort to reduce social activities for a few months.

This is often the case for many companies acquiring the marginal customer, because the ones for whom it is a good fit will find it first (very cheap to acquire - they're looking for you).

Then there are customers who only need a trial (or a small amount of information "what is it") before they come on board.

Finally you get to tough sells: people who already have a good enough alternative - why would they want to pay the same amount as someone who had no systems in place? The marginal benefit to them isn't as high.

As you expand out from your original customer base, each new ring of customers is more expensive to acquire. This is the situation Casper, Blue Apron, and many others face. Meanwhile, their competition has also ramped up - providing other alternatives (which might fit niche customers better)
We have been using 1Password and just use vaults to segment things properly and keep things limited to the smallest group of people possible. 1Password is also how we handle 2fa in a common/generic way for many sites that require it. This avoids the problem of a user using their cell phone number to get the OTP's and then that person leaves the company and you are left trying to coordinate the change for an account with a former employee.

1Password isn't perfect but is by far the best one I've used and it does work well for teams IMO. We just are anal about setting up vaults and permissions to those vaults so it easy to segment users to only see the services they are allowed to etc. Plus it keeps things orderly and clean for maintenance purposes. The browser plug-ins have gotten better and the search is decent so definitely better then others I have seen.
I haven't used it in a corporate setting, but personally I've been using Bitwarden[1] since November 2017 without a single hiccup. It's amazing. The best part: it's open source, including all clients/apps (browser addons, desktop apps, smartphone apps). The server component being open source means you can host your own instance on-premise (clients let you specify a custom host to sync with to avoid using Bitwarden's public servers).

Personal use is free, with an optional $10 per YEAR (not per month) addon that adds a built-in TOTP client (ie. Google Authenticator compatible two-factor auth). There are also "Organization" accounts at extra cost for more enterprise-level usage, including sharing credentials among teams.

Note: I believe that even if you host on-premise using the open source code, it expects a paid license for the extra features (TOTP and Organization accounts), at $3-5/month per user.

The article talks a bit about this, and fast charging seems to bring some problems with it, though:

_Theoretically, these power capacitors could be wrapped up into a big battery pack and used to power a long-range, super fast charging EV. The high-power versions can charge to 75 percent in five minutes, for example. But Verhulst doesn't believe this tech will flood the automotive market. "You need a charger that can handle it," he tells us. "A 10 kWh pack charged in five minutes means you'd need a 100 kW charger. If you then go to the big ones, say a 100 kWh battery, you'd need a megawatt charger. That's a lot. That's a whole power station. So scalability is still an issue."_

While 1Password is fantastic, their CLI is the worst CLI I’ve ever seen. Basically unusable.

EDIT: if someone from 1Password reads this, please reach out. I have good CLI UX experience and would love to help fix it.

I don't know if this was done, but it's totally possible to get a helicopter to carry a tank of fuel and leave it floating midway in the ocean (or on ice strong enough to land on).

You can then go back, refuel, and this time go the whole way, stopping off for fuel at your new midway point.

You just need to make sure you don't forget where you put the fuel!
