You pin all your direct dependencies in requirements.txt, run "pip freeze >requirements-frozen.txt" to get a list of the versions of all dependencies (direct and transitive), and then you ship that.

Replicating is just "virtualenv --python=python3 venv && . ./venv/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements-frozen.txt". Am I missing something here? Yes, to be absolutely sure, you need to have the same versions of python, pip, setuptools, gcc (for C extensions), C library dependencies, etc. on both systems that do the build, but that's the case for pretty much any build system out there if you want repeatable builds.

And if you you just don't feel like dealing with that, you can just use Docker (aka "put my machine in a tarball and ship it").

Let's not use sarcasm or sources..... Let's puzzle it out.

You don't use a password to encrypt your iCloud backups... They're specific to the hardware your backing up. If you have an itouch for example it's backups are separate from your phone.

So now you have these backups in the cloud and you lose your iPhone, you remote wipe it.

Now your new one arrives and you restore from backup... Your iMessage private keys are available to apple unencrypted .... Because you didn't need to provide a second factor of authentication for unlocking the backup you were just asked which one to use.

Apple and any reputable nation-state can read your iMessages with a subpoena ... If you use iCloud backups and not local backups with a password.
Ask HN: WebRTC access to the files on the NAS through the browser

I remember a lot of this from when I lived in Germany.

I also seem to remember -- can you either correct me, or confirm this -- in these same companies that expect the photo resume, don't they expect your full salary history as well?

At the time I wrote those, I was actually surprised because I didn't see much improvement using emcc-raycast. In both implementations, you can see that I'm allocating objects/structs all over the place, so that probably brings down the performance.
If you stare at a computer all day, ie. you have an office job, your job can be done from home.

I really hope remote work becomes more accepted as an option. It's not even just about individual productivity and happiness, it's better for the environment.

What annoys me on these threads is when I see people say "I don't like WFH, therefore other people shouldn't be able to WFH". There's nothing wrong with preferring to go into the office, but who gives you the right to tell others how they have to work? Everyone should have the freedom to work how they are most comfortable, so long as they can get the work done.
DragonflyBSD's performance does not beat Linux. See https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=freebsd1...

In fact DragonflyBSD is slower than FreeBSD in most benchmarks. I've always been under the impression that FreeBSD is for performance (though worse than Linux), OpenBSD is security and correctness (my favorite of the bunch), NetBSD is portability, and DragonflyBSD is for experimental crazy shit (my second favorite).
It's all over the map. Personally, I have a very frustrating anecdote in that I got extensive x-rays on my toes by a podiatrist. He used a very sophisticated platform (at least from my POV) to show my layer by layer the damage to my toe joints and referred me to a surgeon. Multiple consults later, the best this surgeon could do (who also works with pro-sports teams at the highest level) was use microsoft paint to look at the x-ray images from the podiatrist to assay the damage. The Microsoft paint version was essentially a single flattened image which lost a huge amount of information. I suggested taking his own images thinking he would have a better way of looking at that data. Nope. Microsoft paint. He didn't seem to even have any idea how much information he was not getting despite multiple attempts to explain it to him. I am in an adjacent field so I know the lingo, but whatever surgeons just want to cut.
I'm not angry only because it affected me. Besides, I also rent and my rent is high. And I am an immigrant in this country, I have no relatives, nobody to ask for help. I have two kids and a wife who cannot work and we don't have any savings. We literally live from a paycheck to a paycheck. If I don't earn money for two, three weeks in a row - we are basically homeless. So please don't tell me how lucky I am.

Staying home means fewer traffic accidents, and closing businesses means fewer workplace accidents (admittedly not relevant for the 0-4 age group) and maybe lower pollution. So it definitely seems possible that all-cause mortality for some age groups would reduce.
A radio station emitting long waves can be heard almost anywhere on earth. With poor quality, of course. I used to listen to radio stations at 20 000 km away for fun.
The code you were looking for is in the OpenDHT project, which simply calls GnuTLS's gnutls_pubkey_encrypt_data(), which is PKCS1v15. OpenDHT doesn't do anything special with errors from decryption. You'd have to actually set up a test environment to say it was vulnerable with any confidence, though.
This does nothing to make your projects legal. "Open" spectrum like this only allows you to operate certified devices where the vendor made some assurance that they actually stick to their band and power limit, and don't interfere on some random harmonic.

To build your projects you need a ham license, and if you have that you have the ham allocations.
It's a little scary how some leaders are using this pandemic to grab power. Even Canada's PM tried to grant himself emergency powers that went a little too far. He had to back down because he controls a minority of seats and the other parties noticed what had been snuck into an emergency bill [1].

If this almost happened in Canada, we should expect there will be a lot of countries where citizens will have to make noise to ensure emergency powers don't become permanent powers.

This was great advice! The key thing about Equalizer APO is that it does its processing of the sound before the Windows sound API, so any program recording from my mic gets the processed version, and there's no virtual microphone needed (well, the actual microphone becomes virtualised - there's no separate device). I have that all working, and mostly followed this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3fBx2ftaBs

I adjusted the numbers for my setup but his were a good starting point.
So I searched and I found that my library has a book with this exact title, but by a guy named Shyamalendu Kandar.

Cool story, thanks for sharing.

Alcohol fumes are also useful for treating tuberculosis and pneumonia. I don't recommend the spoon method, it's much gentler to use an evaporation chamber.
Did you see an advert for it? (Just wondering why you're at the ads library for it - it doesn't appear to have any ads.)

As for reporting it, the "Report a problem" button at the bottom of that page will lead to this, but here is is:

* Go to the page - you can click it on the page's name in the advert, or you can search for it, or you can cheat and go to /2261037334224684 (that identifier from the URL you posted), which will take you to the page.

* Next to "Like", "Follow", "Share", there's an ellipsis thing, and under there, there's "Find support or report page", where you can selects "Scams and fake pages".
Python is a nice scripting and introduction to programming language, but "It is so far ahead of anything out there for general purpose use." it is not.

Portchain (container shipping startup) | Devops Engineer | Remote | Copenhagen, Denmark

* Requirements:

5 years minimum of professional experience in managing and setting up highly available distributed infrastructure. Experience with any or all of the following technologies is a plus: Terraform, AWS, Node.js. Startup experience valued.

* Our company:

Did you know that 90% of all goods globally are transported through a container, and the largest container vessels are 400 meters long and can transport 20,000 containers at a time? The container shipping industry is the back-bone and enabler of global trade, but it is struggling. At its core the industry is fundamentally inefficient: 50% of all container vessels globally are delayed coming into port, and key planning processes are done manually on a global scale. This leads to high operational costs, lost revenue, and unnecessarily high greenhouse gas emissions

Portchain is a 2 year old Danish container shipping startup devoted to help container carriers and terminals reduce operational complexity and optimize planning. We apply cutting-edge AI leading to both a better bottom line and less greenhouse gas emissions.

We are an international team of 22 people serving a global customer base and several of the largest companies in the industry. We have received $5M in funding to expand the team in order to serve our increasing customer traction.

> homes aren't and never were designed for WFH conditions.

They were, in the past. Houses built for the gentry used to have a room called "the study", a quiet space equipped with bookshelves and a desk. This went out of fashion as most men, and later women, began to go to this newfangled place called "the office" that was outside of their homes.

IMO most American detached homes are large enough for a dedicated working room to be retrofitted in. This may not be possible for small homes and apartments in urban areas, though, as they were designed long after the study became obsolete.

> But a lot of professions like sales/legal/etc rely very heavily on close social interaction.

That culture will be seriously disrupted if Coronavirus isn't under control soon, or if similar outbreaks occur regularly in the future. There's already huge selection pressure against companies that can't be productive in WFH mode. Sooner or later, the ability to switch to WFH on a moment's notice and maintain productivity might be considered a great strength in the eyes of investors and customers alike.

The app has over 10 million installs on Android alone.

Alphabet has 117 BILLION DOLLARS cash on hand.

Why is it worth screwing over how ever few people were using this?

Let's say a team to maintain an app like this cost 2 million dollars a year.

For 1 ten thousandth of their cash of hand, they could fund this app for 5 times longer than Homo sapiens have walked on earth. 1.1 million years.

Even if Google shuttering apps is just a meme, why is it even worth feeding the meme when you have such mind bending amounts of money and revenue?

-

Of course the answer people will reply with is "they have better things to do with the resources".

That's the mentality that makes people not trust Google.

When you have such mind bending amounts of money, something can be successful by the standards of mere mortals and an embarrassment to Alphabet. No one wants to rely on a company that sees your money as a joke and will gladly pull the rug under you.

This app is a perfect example, what kind valuation do you think an app with 10 million installs for neighborhood engagement would see? We don't have DAUs, but you could literally value a listing with 10 million users in the millions.
Why does that website list angularjs as killed since it has just been updated with a slightly changed name. Might as well list old versions of android as killed by google.
