That's why there's OCSP stapling and OCSP must staple. Ever seen an nginx server fail HTTPS connection exactly once after rotating the certificate? That's nginx lazily fetching the OCSP response from upstream for stapling purposes.
To be honest this is a novel disease that is affecting the world a lot right now and we simply don't know the best way forward.

This is not the flu, it is much worse, but we are generally not enforcing "seat belts" to protect the vulnerable even close to as much.

I've spent the last three years working in Unity. By the time I've learned enough to make honest-to-goodness good quality games with it, I've reimplemented so many things that are supposed to be core features of Unity, that I would have just been better off starting from scratch on my own.

So that's what I'm doing now. There is a .NET Standard 2.0 library called Veldrid that gets you open source graphics code.
There's another netstandard2 library called NAudio that will get you most of what you need for audio. Xamarinn will get you the platform-specific stuff for user input. Networking can be done with just regular, ol .NET sockets. If you care about VR (which I do), there are C# wrappers around all of the major VR APIs; you'd have to do a lot of platform specific and conditional compilation wrangling to get good VR working on Unity anyway.

And you can use a sane build system, with a sane dependency management system.

It's just so much better than constantly fighting Unity's stuff that was all designed for demoing at Unite and then never finished.
I used to work in an office where there were speakers in the ceiling. The company used them, too. "Call for Mr. Gibber on line 10, call for ..." all day long. ALL DAY LONG while you're trying to concentrate on writing code.

Funny how the speakers always seemed to be failing in the engineering areas. Simply cannot imagine why :-)
Web Assembly

It's interesting in a bunch of ways, and I think it might end up having a wider impact than anyone has really realized yet.

It's an ISA that looks set to be adopted in a pretty wide range of applications, web browsers, sandboxed and cross platform applications, embedded (into other programs) scripting, cryptocurrencies, and so on.

It looks like it's going to enable a wider variety of languages on the web, many more performant than the current ones. That's interesting on it's own, but not the main reason why I think the technology is interesting.

Both mobile devices, and crypto currencies, are places where hardware acceleration is a thing. If this is going to be a popular ISA in both of those, might we get chips whose native ISA is web assembly? Once we have hardware acceleration, do we see wasm chips running as CPUs someday in the not too distant future (CPU with an emphasis on Central)?

A lot of people seem excited about the potential for risc-v, and arm is gaining momentum against x86 to some extent, but to me wasm actually seems best placed to takeover as the dominant ISA.

Anyways, I doubt that thinking about this is going to have much direct impact on my life... this isn't something I feel any need to help along (or a change I feel the need to try and resist). It's just a technology that I think will be interesting to watch as the future unfolds.
Well, security starts from the user. If you're not mindful of what websites you visit, or what files/apps you download and run, there's no OCSP or anything else there to save you.

OCSP enabled or not, you're still one website click away from being pwned to oblivion, giving full control to the hacker – which, of course, is inevitable to an extent, since bugs always find their way into software.

So why not make it easy to disable?

> the absolute inability to override the order of items in the sharing panel[1]

that's funny because on iOS you seemingly can override the order, but the behavior of that between different apps (and/or content types?) is so undeterministic that people just give up.
Any simple gas mower you buy off the line today can last practically forever if you just do basic maintenance and store it properly between seasons. They are just pretty simple engine designs that haven't really changed in decades.

I used to be a groundskeeper, and as long as we kept the blades sharp and did basic engine maintenance like changing the oil and filter, we could just abuse a push mower all over the golf course for 50 hours a week summer after summer.
I am puzzled by the paper of this groups [1]. The only evidence they present for "change points in the COVID spreading rate" is slightly better fit of the number of daily reported cases. In this repository for "Scenario assuming three change points with a weekly modulation of reported cases" they use 16 parameters to fit a smooth line (wavy pattern is because of lower case reports around the weekend). An elephant needs 8 [2]!. I also asked for clarification on stats.stackexchange [3].

TL;DR: 500 times thinner, much cheaper, 25.2% efficiency, but not durable at all.
The most obvious and critical reason is because of security. You don't want your app to be stuck on Ubuntu 12.04 forever, but that's exactly what can happen. If you're not incrementally updating and fixing your stuff, you end up facing 5+ years of accumulated problems, at which point many people will take door #2: keep using the broken environment until somebody forces you not to; or door #3: start from scratch.

The upgrade treadmill is exactly that, a treadmill--it's exercise. The alternative to not exercising is poor health and an early death.
You are either severely misunderstanding or misrepresenting the FAQ that you quoted. It's simply clarifying that copy-left and permissive licenses are both compatible with the meaning of the term open source (ie they're disjoint subsets).

Regarding the "please only used approved licenses bit" - you've again missed the point. There is an effectively infinite set of possible licenses which satisfy the meaning of the term "open source" as it is currently used. The OSI is merely pointing out that it will make everyone's lives easier if developers try their best to use one of the licenses that already exists.

Licensing is a complex topic and not everyone is a lawyer or can afford to consult one (particularly for hobby and volunteer projects). If every project out there used a unique license it would be a complete nightmare. For that reason, it's better for everyone if at least some minimal attempt is made to use a well established license whenever possible.

> The OSI includes GPLv3, which is certainly not "free" for a ton of commercial uses.

Incorrect. Commercial customers are free to use, modify, and redistribute just like everyone else. They can even sell a product based on it - they just can't keep any changes they might make closed source if they do so.

> the value of any "Open Source Definition" is severely diluted for any considerable purpose

Not at all. The meaning is quite clear - I'm either free to use, modify, and redistribute it or I'm not. That's it.

Take a look at some of the approved licenses - for example AGPL, GPL, MPL, and MIT. In _all_ cases I'm free to modify and redistribute. In some cases I might be required to make my changes available, but never am I barred from making use as I see fit. Source available is simply not the same thing.

> I do not see value in pedantry around the term "open source", those words are so plain and ordinary that gluing any tertiary meaning to them is foolish. It's as subjective as "good code".

The fact that you see it as subjective is the misunderstanding that I refer to. It is _not_ subjective, but convincing others that it is can sometimes confer monetary benefits. This is precisely why such pedantry exists in great quantity surrounding the topic.

Your comment says "The infection fatality rate for COVID-19 is about 0.2%" but you reference "Case fatality rate of COVID-19 by age" as the source.

The infection fatality rate and the case fatality rate are two very, very different concepts.

"The IFR differs from the CFR in that it aims to estimate the fatality rate in all those with infection: the detected disease (cases) and those with an undetected disease (asymptomatic and not tested group)... The IFR will always be lower than the CFR..." [1]

Spanish government's estimates of COVID-19's IFR are[2]:

For the age group under 50, the estimated IFR is about 0.003%

For the age group 50 - 69 yo, it's 0.04%

And for those over 70, it's 4.1%

It's classic antitrust. Google considers itself immune.

A class action on behalf of content creators who are being abused combined with federal antitrust action might persuade it otherwise - especially if actions were brought simultaneously in the US and EU.
I run daily, about 20-30 miles a week.

My "regular" breathing pattern (i.e. the one I use to run at medium-hard paces for long distances) is:

nose-in, mouth out: in, out-out, in-in, ooout.

1/4, 1/8, 1/8, 1/8, 1/8, 1/2.

I attenuate the BPM to my pace: on high intensity runs, I usually can get away with raising the BPM, but the last 1/2 is very hard and I sometimes break it into 1/4 out, 1/4 in (more oxygen). For sprinting, any pattern goes away, and it's 1/4 in, 1/4 out. Still nose to mouth, but I think the optimal solution here depends a lot on the shapes of your nose/mouth. :)

And most people think running is just putting one foot in front of the other! :)

To some extent it is of course, but these kinds of cadences are necessary to run effectively, which I guess is different from just running.
No, I usually don't install apps for things like grills, refrigerators, trashcans or other domestic objects since I can't imagine they'd offer me anything obviously beneficial. I'm sure that's why I haven't enjoyed experiences like this.

> 3. Forked Code. There should be no reason to do it

The actual problem is that some APIs are different, for example, in Chrome the notifications has a richer set of options but you need to be careful to not use the ones not supported by Firefox.

> Keep the same manifest

Actually, it depends on which options you use, for example, i18n placeholders aren't supported in Firefox while they are in Chrome, in Edge, the manifest is drastically different.

If you have time this long weekend, the team behind Autocode (Standard Library) [0] is looking for feedback. We launched a couple months ago here on HN and have been eating up community responses. :)

tl;dr is: we provide the entire development stack for API integration on rails. If you've ever wanted to ship some quick webhook or API integration logic but have found Zapier too limiting but spinning up an entire dev stack overkill, Autocode fits cleanly in between both. In-browser IDE, API autocomplete, a drag-and-drop UI that generates code for you, version control, revision history, cloud hosting for your APIs. Takes a minute or two to ship a webhook from scratch.

Not really, the fees are more o less standard, and if one of the parties decide to go with ten lawyers, the loser pays only the fees published by the legal system, at least where I live.
> Is 5G really such a ground breaking technology that will change everything?

If it enables cheap enough connectivity - i.e. being able to place a 5G chip with a prepaid SIM card in a low-cost device - then absolutely, companies will jump at the opportunity to do everything from inventing bullshit "smart" "value-add" features, to selling surveillance to marketers.
At least it's easier to throw out the window.
Having your legal fees covered is a good start, but it can't give you back time wasted, or take back the gray hairs. I think it's fairly safe to say that our system doesn't go far enough to protect individuals in legal battles with corporations, for whom the process is far less stressful.
This list is quite comprehensive, but also quite boring. It's just a list of bugs and things that are suboptimal on Linux. You could write one about any operating system. Some of the items like 'such-and-such needs to be configured using a text file' are also not even real problems.

What do you mean by 'there goes your install'? There are multiple ways you could run bleeding-edge software before it's packaged for Arch. See for example every 'xxx-git' package in the AUR. Or Flatpak.
> Nothing in the existing body of law requires them to proactively block copyrighted material from their platform

The fight doesn’t have to take place in the realm of law. At best copyright holders would have sued youtube into oblivion if they didn’t do proactive takedowns. At worst, well considering that Comcast owns both tons of copyrighted property (through Universal Studios) and major telecommunication infrastructure, I can’t imagine how dirty they can play if they had to.
GPGPU. GPU performance is still increasing along Moore's Law, single-core performance has plateaued. The implication is that at some point, the differential will become so great that we'll be stupid to continue running anything other than simple housekeeping tasks on the CPU. There's a lot of capital investment that'd need to happen for that transition - we basically need to throw out much of what we've learned about algorithm design over the past 50 years and learn new parallel algorithms - but that's part of what makes it exciting.
All 3 of these will inevitably be botnet nodes and DDoS amplifiers. We aren't ready for the responsibility of having any of these class of devices added to the internet.

You already have these areas, in fact the opposite happens. Skid row in LA has been a rough part of town for probably a century. As a result, that's where the vast majority of services are located. On top of that, impovershed people live all over town in CA. Across any arbitrary 500 feet in a CA city you might see one family living in a million dollar+ home, a single family crammed in a tiny apartment, and encampments and RVs spanning the in between. Rich and poor already live on top of each other, this would at least mean the impoverished who are already living in a given neighborhood are housed instead of the status quo which is living in the same neighborhood but in a tarp with no plumbing.

"What, exactly, is so valuable about working together in the same physical space? "

EXACTLY. The open office plan has never achieved the spontaneous productivity companies had hoped for. Instead it's led to misery, lower productivity, and mental and social health.
Raising the minimum wage:

* Only affects those at the very bottom

* Does not require more new government spending than any project ever before

* Doesn't create any incentives for people, especially low skilled, low wage, but necessary labor

The last point is perhaps the most important. All the low skilled workers are still going to do their jobs. Prices might rise a bit, some companies might choose to layoff some workers, and at scale globalization may still take a toll; but you don't have the terrifying risk that half of your low level workforce decides they're ok to just relax or acquire more skills.

It's not as impactful as the lofty goals of UBI for sure... but the only way society is going to work with poor people not requiring a job to survive is if they agree, wholly in spite of their best interests, to work the shitty jobs anyway.

There's plenty of middle-ground with similarly minded goals, like paying people to stay at home and raise their kids that make plenty of sense. UBI is cool if we don't need poor people... but we do, and we probably always will. The ideal strategy recognizes this and instead tries to minimize harm done to poor people as a result of poverty

Even without the psychology, advertisers aren't charities giving money away as many people seem to believe, they want a return on their investment and that return comes from users giving them money. Manipulating you into giving them money is the sole reason that 99% of ads exist and if it didn't work there would be no ads.

> however later for the subjects favored purchasing a Kodiak camera over competitors products.

Even worse is that when they were purchasing the camera the cost of the ads was embedded in that price. They weren't just manipulated into buying that brand, they paid for the manipulation itself. I now make a conscious effort to avoid advertised products, at least the ones in meatspace where there are no ad blockers. I can't wait for the day that AR is advanced enough to let me block them too.
