This isn’t enlightening. It sounds like there is no evidence and the user to which I originally replied just wanted to besmirch the reputation of the Wine project without a good reason why they are lying about rejecting legally troublesome contributions. It is possible to go about an open source alternative honestly.

There have been numerous stories in the past of IoT sex toys basically being thrown together by people with no tech knowledge and leaving the passwords as defaults, etc. Makes hacking/stealing the data trivial and obviously problematic for the product and users.

What does project do to ensure security?
I really like the concept, having personally struggled with browser automation scripting in the past for business and personal use.

However, I'm concerned about the privacy and security implications of storing users' automation scripts in the cloud. What if I want to automate processes on sites or applications which contain sensitive data?

In other responses I think you've confirmed that scraped data itself is never sent to your servers, but even the script and its metadata (e.g. names of fields, search terms, IDs of elements on the page etc.) can contain sensitive information.

In several of my clients' environments the use of this tool simply wouldn't be allowed because no third party data is allowed to leave the internal network.

Is there a way to use the product without sending any data whatsoever to your servers?

Also, does this work with browsers other than Chrome?
well said about the goals. goals make you feel like a failure if you don't meet them, and leave you wanting when you do, and worst of all, don't tell you how to reach them! Systems over goals every time.

regarding your luck, you may be aware of the 4 kinds of luck (https://medium.com/@ameet/the-four-kinds-of-luck-ea729970d71...) - by putting your reps in, you exposed yourself to type 2 luck, luck that just happens randomly, but it happens because you did something. good for you!
Why is it necessary to be able to distinguish windows apps from web apps? That's just silly.
No, GDPR just forced website owners to air their dirty laundry. You don't need a cookie popup. See Basecamp.com, github.com etc. You only need one if you're asking the user for more data than is necessary to provide the service.
Yes, that happens.

Sometimes it is also possible to brand the exact same service in different ways.

If you have a SaaS that is fully OSHA compliant on all tiers, it may be worth it to not mention the OSHA compliance on lower tiers, but only offer it on the Enterprise tier for example.
Should be fine - most editors will not round trip on every key press, only periodic saves or command runs.
That's more than understandable - no edit necessary, it was just a minor criticism. I wish yourself and your colleague the best of wishes with managing your governments websites, that is an admirable responsibility during these trying times as I expect an awful lot of Americans depend on it.
This looks great. Is there any plan to add time tracking? It's the only reason I'm still with my current *books hosted solution, even though I'm not particularly happy with it.
Hungary No Longer a Democracy – Freedom House
This article contradicts my (sample size of one) observations at local grocery stores (in central PA, USA). Pork has been and remains the cheapest meat in the grocery store and there's pork there even when beef and chicken shelves are empty. In contrast, I just ordered a 1/4 cow from a local farm because beef prices have continued to go up. Fortunately, we have a large freezer! During the COVID-19 pandemic, the meat that is hardest to purchase is chicken wings.

Here's an interesting question ... if pork is so cheap, why are bacon and ham so expensive?

> When you see one of those cookie popups it is a sign that the website is trying to get more information out of you than they need.

Or the owner of the website has failed to understand the nature of the law. Given the amount of confusion in this comment section this also seems likely.

The ones which deliberately make the flow for closing the popup and accessing the site without 'consenting' are the ones I think are actually acting malicously.
RaTG13 wasn't exactly "lying around." The Wuhan Institute of Virology searches out and catalogs bat coronaviruses. They have a "library" of a few hundred frozen viruses. Most of them probably receive very little in-depth study after initial categorization.

> Nor are the Chinese authorities very open to international collaboration on this matter.

The Wuhan Institute of Virology actually engages in a large amount of international collaboration. The international collaborators of the WIV (among them are some of the most prominent coronavirus and emerging infectious diseases researchers), in the United States and elsewhere, have been defending the institute against the various conspiracy theories circulating online (and being promoted by the US President). The researchers at the WIV receive training at national labs in the US, France and Australia. In other words, the WIV is tightly hooked into the international research community. It's not some secretive place that the outside world can't peer into.

> possibly carried by a different species, that brought the disease to Wuhan

SARS and MERS were both transmitted to humans through an intermediate host species. It's reasonable to believe that SARS-CoV-2 also went through an intermediate host. It's also not certain that the initial spillover occurred in Wuhan. It could easily have begun in the countryside and only blown up when someone brought it to Wuhan, which is a major transportation hub.
This is pretty cool. Can you share a bit more about your experience? I would like to be able to help out this way.

This is going to sound weird but there's this great interview with Seinfeld and Obama where they talk about the "answer" to "why do you keep doing this stuff when you're so successful and have 'made it'"?

Which I think is the real question OP is asking: "Why if I've hit this goal do I keep doing this? Why does it feel so unsatisfying?"

I've linked to the spot in the interview but the answer is to really enjoy the work and the process.

I feel this myself (as someone with a decent sized SAAS), that I still really enjoy helping people, answering support emails, getting on calls with them. It feels more satisfying than arbitrary revenue goals.

Soon all cookies will be treated with SameSite=Lax policy, unless website specifies otherwise. That means that by default it won't be possible to track users on other websites. It's still possible to track users with cookies using SameSite=None, but it's expected that most cookies should not use this setting, so browsers theoretically could use an approach similar to allowing notifications or location services: ask user for permission before accepting that cookie.

So if that UI will be deployed, may be those popups won't make sense anymore.

Something that I always find lacking in these discussions is that the VIM evangelists never mention the way that I use vim: strictly as a keyboard-only editor plugin.

I tried using vim-only setups but there's so much configuring and weird things. Nothing to me has worked as great as my current VSCode + Vim plugin setup. It's the best of both worlds, as I get the quite frankly absurd speed improvements of VIM while also the great user-friendliness and ease of VScode
Yeah, IIRC I've tried Spacemacs and Doom... I think I managed to hit things that they didn't implement... oh, I know: I've gotten the (bad?) habit of going to normal mode by hitting ctrl-c rather than escape, and I think evil didn't handle that. (To be fair: It works in (neo)vim, but ctrl-c to get to normal mode doesn't work nicely in other vi versions either, which is why I suspect it's a bad habit and/or me abusing some misfeature that wasn't intended to be used that way.)

Perhaps I should take another swing at it and see if I can't deal with the quirks...

Hey everyone!
I had previously shared a site I had been working on called AddToTheList.

I’m excited to present Version 2 of the site! It is a complete redesign of the site with way more features and better usability/aesthetic changes.
I’ve been working hard on this for the past month so hopefully you will find the new version more useful.

Check it out here:
https://www.addtothelist.com

Some of the newer features:

* You can now write reviews for titles.

* Improved search and filtering system for titles (including IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes ratings).

* You can like and comment on reviews and lists now also. The more popular lists and reviews will get featured on the home page!

* You can add tags to your lists and reviews so users can search for them more easily.

* You can now create Ranked lists (rank/order the titles in a list).

* Improved user profile view to see most watched genres and other stats.

* You can add descriptions to your lists.

* See the most popular lists, reviews, and users to find out what to watch.

* You'll be able to edit/create lists much more easily and add titles to them more easily also.

* Titles don't need to be added to lists explicitly to rate them.

* And much more!

Thank you for all of the feedback and I’m hoping that this version will really take off. Make sure to invite your friends to join also!
I still have more things planned to come so stay tuned. In the mean time, happy watching! :)
I'm really happy for your sake that you've never dealt with the worst case scenario of an organization utilizing this type of product.

I haven't read it all because it is long and I'm busy, but from skimming: Pinduoduo looks a bit like Massdrop. I think there is a place for curated group buys and this is in my opinion a niche that can quite possibly thrive but I don't see it as an Amazon competitor.

This social group buy thing, of - let's be honest - mostly luxury goods is certainly fun. Amazon is not about fun but convenience and there is the problem, or should I say opportunity for a real Amazon contender.

What I want more than a social experience is ease, convenience and security. No thought about product fraud, no worries if the seller will actually deliver, no research work if they will send me a proper invoice including the right VAT, no double checking shipping costs, no restrictions in what I can buy without a subscription to this or that service, carefree and reliable shipping.

Half of this is what Amazon used to be and if a new company can get half of it right and manages to still be profitable then it has a real chance to usurp Amazon from its throne.

Oh, sure, but if they don't understand it then they probably shouldn't be gathering people's data either.

"it takes much longer for emacs to start up than vi"

This is false on pretty much any modern system. They start up in about the same amount of time. Using lots of packages (in both vim and Emacs) will slow down startup speed, but there are tricks to speed that up too (like by defering actual loading of them until they're needed).

Also, most people who run Emacs just keep it running all the time, and almost never quit or restart it, so startup speed would not be an issue even if it was slow, which it isn't.

"people use a long-running emacs a lot differently than they use disposable vi's"

Emacs has an emacs-client binary which you can use exactly the way you use a disposable vi (or vim). It'll connect to the long-running Emacs process in the background, but that's an implementation detail that you as an Emacs user wouldn't have to worry about, apart from starting Emacs once when you boot your system.

Regarding your description of shell-flipping, Emacs does offer shell integration, where that sort of thing can be done, but I personally don't use it and run shells outside of Emacs (and run both my shells and Emacs itself under tmux), so my workflow with Emacs and the shell mirrors the traditional vi/vim workflow.

I didn't have to change my decades-old vim muscle memory or workflow when I made the switch to Emacs.
/serious hat

I don't believe there's been a case history yet of "hacking + sex crime", but many of us in the community believe that this is a strong possibility.

It's one thing to target fintech, or some website, or a general SaaS offering. However when you're targeting sextech with the knowledge that a hack allows remote unintended stimulation (read: sexual assault), shows that they intended the hack and intended sexual assault.
Try something like spacemacs[1] maybe and use it only for one specific task like org-mode[2]. That way, vim is still your daily driver, but you get to play with lisp/emacs on something very cool like org-mode!

Then, you can slowly try to switch one thing at a time, for example start editing all Dockerfiles in spacemacs, or maybe do that one hello-world project/app in clojure/phoenix using spacemacs. See how you like it, tweak it a bit.

Finally, decide on using it as a daily driver for a new project and stick with it. It will grow on you.

Here's the original publication. The paper is actually more focused on the 3d engineered brain model and is titled "A 3d human brain-like tissue model of herpes-induced Alzheimer's disease":

https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/6/19/eaay8828

The publication actually seems to highlight the demonstration of the 3d brain Alzheimers model as more of what the accomplishment of the paper is (as compared to a demonstration of a herpes/Alzheimers link). Studying Alzheimer's is really difficult because the mouse models etc that we have today are particularly poor for this disease case, which means we can barely rely on any preclinical work done in these models in determing whether or not a drug is going to work in clinical trials. Better models to study Alzheimer's will be very important in fighting the disease. For more publications on the 3d model, here is what the paper cited in its methods section for how they made the brain-like structures:

I'm a bit surprised that companies are even doing business with North Korea considering how unreliable they have been in the past.
In the 70s, when they at least seemed to be on par with South Korea in terms of development [1], they imported mining equipment and 1,000 cars from Sweden but never fully paid for them [2].

I guess the risk is worth it for some companies/individuals if they're only spending a few thousand dollars to potentially save many more.

> “Let’s say you’re making a cartoon, and you are outsourcing the work. So you go to Romania, because you know it’s very cheap.” But the Romanian company knows of an even cheaper option. Its representative flies to Pyongyang and makes a deal for the same work at half the cost—and then gets 50% of the fee without employing anyone. “This has happened,” he says. He will not name movies. Nor popular video games. North Korean labor is also behind websites and crypto, he says. The shadow hands of globally sanctioned socialist labor are all around us.

The Onion was right all along [3].

The writing is crooked and childish, partly owing to the fact that it's scratched with a stylus on tree bark, but to anyone who reads Russian or another adjacent Slavic language, pieces of the text are immediately comprehensible. It's even easier to make progress if you've seen Church Slavonic writing and text abbreviations, which are ubiquitous on religious imagery present in basically every Eastern Orthodox church throughout Russia and other countries with Orthodox churches.

The "I am a beast" letter says the following:

(free-floating) Ѧ ЗВѢРЕ

After accounting for the mixture of letters from the modern Russian alphabet, the Greek alphabet, antiquated Slavic letters like Ѣ and Ѧ, and the unfamiliar orthographic abbreviation ѿ (which is a tau Τ planted on top of an omega ω), the first inscriptions say, using modernized orthography and syntax, "поклон от онфима к даниле" and "я зверь," or "greetings from Onfim to Danilo" and "I am a beast."

The remaining inscriptions are an exercise for the reader.
