I'm hoping this is a significantly sized piece of the puzzle in the proof against the 'us puny humans can't affect something as large as the earth's atmosphere' climate denial argument.

Since the lockdowns the horizon where I live has no brown haze smeared over, and it's not even a significantly sized city (population ~1.5 million), but the lack of haze is noticeable. The presence of the brown smear haze was actually one of the things that made real scale of the effect humanity has on the quality and content of the air that enters our lungs.

GunDb looks like an excellent project though!
This is great. I remember when this came out. Georgi Guninski was a very accomplished bug hunter. Well known for finding vulnerabilities in web browers (ie. internet explorer) But the security community frowned upon that a bit as "not real hacking" so he was like "hold my beer", went after the hardest "real" target you could find and this was the result.

Waste/garbage created by humans is probably an easy source of food for them.
> You have a lot of produce or something, and you can't get it transported to the people who could use it

And why not? "High transaction costs" doesn't seem like a viable explanation in a world where goods constantly get shipped around the world at extremely low cost per unit. Something more like "some stupid government regulation is preventing common sense from being applied", or "corrupt officials are stealing stuff instead of letting it get sold on the open market" seems much more likely.

Yeah, I've figured as much in hindsight. It'd have been nice if they were more forthcoming about this than leaving it as a surprise for everyone to figure out (including, now, for the parent to whom I replied).

The problem I see is that Shellac is dynamic. So, it is pretty intrusive. This is how Click autocompletion works in Python.
Also, I don't think, that Shellac is mutually exclusive with OpenAutoComplete. Being a Shell-to-autocompletion server protocol, it could use openautocomplete library as a data source.
That's awesome! Is there anything like 'meta' but more general? Or for other fields?

That’s not standardized at all, though.
We did, we had a play with Swoole and Phalcon when we were in the RFC stage of our project.

We found Phalcon to be a bit too opinionated in how to do things, and we fell in love with how Swoole has implemented Coroutines and (practically) free context switching between long running asynchronous processes and short running network requests.

Looking back, I do actually wish we had chosen Phalcon (the documentation is a lot better than Swoole's, which is lacklustre to say the least, and occasionally intersperses random characters in Simplified Chinese halfway through sentences), but we've been happy with Swoole's Table implementation which allows us to share memory between network request Coroutines and hit the Redis cache a whole lot less.
Yeah, same here.

Huh haven’t jailbroken my iPhones since my iPhone 5 back in 2014. Back then I feel that iOS was severely limited in functionality and jailbreaking allowed for custom solutions to problems Apple wasn’t addressing. Since then iOS has seen a plethora of features and I feel there’s little reason to jailbreak anymore. Does anyone know if there’s any good reason to jailbreak anymore? Any killer functionality that would make it worth it?

"a. Can I turn it off?

Yes. The choice to use this technology rests with the user, and he or she can turn it off at any time by uninstalling the contact tracing application or turning off exposure notification in Settings."

Does this mean the device owner has to turn it off? Or is it opt-in? Also, can random apps turn this on again after it has been turned off? And how can the user not get this update at all?
> I suggest without underlying thoughts that we exchange the sandwich back after taking a closer look at it.

You can suggest that, but why should I agree if I value the sandwich I now have more than the sandwich you have--which of course I do because that's why I agreed to the first exchange?

In some ways, the tier one cities in China are more advanced than their Western counterparts. E.g. mobile payment platforms are ubiquitous, app-mediated delivery of food is profitable and sustainable, taxi companies and bikes are more accessible. The last time I was in a cafe, all I had to do was scan a QR code, select some items on a menu, and press a button to pay and have it delivered to my table. The tech ecosystem has evolved in a very different way than the US, but not at all in an obviously worse way: I'd expect Tencent and Alibaba to outperform the US tech giants over the next ten years. It's mostly insularity that makes Americans think that China is massively backwards technologically.

The biggest issue moving into the future is the national government's hostility toward foreigners, even foreign professionals. Even then, though, a billion people gives you a lot to work with.

> situating the creation of wealth primarily in the exchange of goods, implicitly devaluing the act of producing the goods in the first place

Producing goods and services also involves exchanges, but it's a fair point that there are other activities besides direct trades that can create wealth, yes. Transformation of raw materials into finished products also can. So can providing services.
(regarding qmail) It was a security bug back in 2005. It stopped being a security bug when DJB mentioned on the official page about the memory limits.

Regarding the salsa20 implementation: I just mentioned in my previous message why this was not a bug and the only reason that people were upset over it was due to Filo's incompetence.

As for evidence of DJB dealing straightforwardly with security reports: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23250748

I think that https://old.reddit.com/r/crypto/comments/72w42c/statement_re... would be a better example of DJB not properly handling security reports.
It's the tragedy of the commons. The only way to change it is for local/state/national governments to remove the tragedy.

> I complain about RAM usage and garbage collection CPU time in my Electron apps just plenty.

What does this have to do with C#? Surely you hold it to a higher standard than electron of all things—C# has been around for 18 years. Electron is just repackaging a browser as an app. Is this the standard to which microsoft holds themselves? Might as well sell scripts for google docs....
I've worked in a couple of corporate research labs. Yes, you'll be expected to do more convincing about the value of your research for the company. That raises two problems:

- Some great researchers are not very good at convincing.

- From a purely financial standpoint some research does not make sense considering the risk (more ground breaking and longer usually means more risk).

I'm not sure that the alternative is not much better though.
The Zedge App Play Button Effect Developed in Android
For purely analytics systems, it's already pretty easy to leverage server-side calls or an internal proxy service to route figures, which does truly mask where the data is going (but should still be disclosed in your privacy policy).

And many of them offer a hybrid approach called CNAME cloaking[1], where you CNAME a subdomain on your host to the analytics/marketing system. That way you still leverage their infrastructure but they gain access to the first-party context. Here[2] is an example of that for Adobe Analytics.

Google Analytics doesn't officially support a CNAME implementation, so the above doesn't apply. The cookie service I referenced in the parent comment is a workaround for that. The GA code is still all third-party, but you create an internally hosted microservice that will set cookies when called out to. You hit that service (even via a third party tool like Google Tag Manager), it sets an appropriately named first party cookie in it's response, and you suppress GA from triggering it's usual cookie-setting properties (which would overwrite the first party cookie and get hit with ITP restrictions).

That said, ad networks are a different beast entirely. Some of them offer a CNAME cloaking implementation option, but it's less common than you'd expect. And few if any of them allow internal proxying of the tracking data. There's simply too much potential for fraud and too little trust between parties. "Offline" conversion tracking is pretty commonly supported though, which involves having a site capture a click identifier that an ad network appends to an ad click, then in an out-of-band process, upload conversion activity to the ad network using that click id as a key. Precludes the super invasive browser-side tracking, while still allowing for attribution and media effectiveness analysis.

You don't need genocide to reduce population, just birth rate policies. Most developed nations already have declining native populations (sometimes the overall population grows only through immigration).

China had a one-child policy for a while. I think the world would be much better if other countries would restrict the reproduction of humans in a sensible way. Only those who can afford to bring up children with a minimum quality of life should be allowed to.

Luckily I haven't run into that, but then I'm not using any commercial software currently and the stuff in the official repositories tends to work the way you would expect it to. Generally your settings should work pretty much independently of any program you happen to be running - xkb in particular is processing the key events at quite a low level.

Regarding the line editing tools you mentioned that sounds to me like something built in to the native UI toolkit (I'm just guessing here though). Reconfiguring how physical keys are interpreted can obviously only do so much. I'd never heard of those shortcuts before and they sound like a really useful feature.
Here's a picture of what I was talking about:

Now, the two while loops, as shown here, have no dependencies between each other and are indeed processing in parallel. However, there are various mechanisms in LabVIEW to exchange data between the two loops, the most common being queues, in which case they process concurrently.

You can also have a for loop iterating on an array.

https://i.imgur.com/nRgyckx.png

In LabVIEW, it's nice because it's trivial to configure the loop iterations to occur in parallel (if there are no dependencies between iterations), using all available cores in the computer.

And by pattern matching I meant something like the pattern matching and type destructuring you find in SML, Ocaml, F#, and Elixir.

> There are two kinds of wealth that gets confused in the discussion.

No, there's just wealth. Which is basically what you are calling "absolute wealth".

What you are calling "relative wealth" is not wealth; it's either simple trade (when you buy a product, you are "commanding the means of production" that produced it, but that's just how a free market works) or brute force (using either overt violence or government power to "command" resources that in a free market would go to other uses).

Why Rebel Groups Love the Toyota Hilux (2010)

> [...] A former British special forces soldier, who asked not to be identified because he still consults on active operations, says he too has faced the Hilux, which he refers to as "the technical," in both Iraq and Afghanistan. "I'd say the appeal is pretty simple," he says. "You can't underestimate the value of having a vehicle that is fast, will never break down, and is strong enough to mount a heavy weapon in the back."

There are also viewpoints and hill stations just outside Kathmandu – Daman, Nagarjun and Nagarkot where the mountains are visible."

> I have not seen any solution for tracking changes, differences,displaying versions, etc. I.E. git for pictures.

LabVIEW has a diff capability, and while working for National Instruments, my team actually had a quite capable custom code-review system built out of this diff. This is an area that is brought up often, but text-based diff tools weren't magically found in the universe. They were built, and some of them are good and some of them not. It's not a paradigm's fault that tools like git were built around the idea that code must be text.

I do agree that better tools need to exist though, but there isn't a reason for why they can't. They just need to be built. There are hard and interesting problems in that space, both technically and design-wise.

> Some visual languages can turn an area into a 'subroutine', I have not seen any solution to build libraries of reusable 'subroutines'.

LabVIEW has a third-party developed package manager in the JKI VIPM. And LabVIEW has features where you can put your VIs and classes into various LabVIEW specific containers, most usually source libraries, that can then be referenced and re-used in projects. Just treat the libraries as modules like you would in any other language. They should contain classes and functions that have a shared or particular purpose.

You are right, it is only pinpointing the DNS server of the client, which usually resides in the same city, so you can find where the victim lives. It is inferred from the conversation here though that one could potentially exploit this even further to perform ping trilateration and get a better accuracy on one's location using the method described in the article. I think this spawned the comment about the timing attacks.

Such a tired saying. Software that is 'simple enough that there are obviously no bugs' can not have much more functionality than 'Hello world'. Once upon a time when software development was still a young field there was the illusion that software could be written in such a way that every part of the software was easily inspectable for bugs. In this age we should have learned a long time ago that this is in fact not the case for all but the most limited functionality.
I don't think that really matters though. I'd wager that you can write 5 or 6 simple parsers and get 99% coverage of commands used.
This is good feedback, I will make a note to adjust this later. Thanks!

Looking at the number of angry responses to the parent comment, it looks like it is still edgy to say that.
I don't feel guilty at all. I feel fantastic not buying the sweatpants. I [quite specifically] don't want the joy from them. I just need clothing and I like to look sharp. A month ago I visited a second hand store. It was really well maintained, the experience was much like visiting a museum. They had a lot of second hand clothing all washed, ironed and nicely folded / on coat hangers and it was all nicely sorted by size.

I buy 8 pants for 3 euro each simply because they look fantastic on me. If it was a [new] clothing store I wouldn't buy 8 but I'd spend 100 euro on 5 of them and at most 50 for the other 3 if I ran into them there. I just didn't put myself in a [new] clothing store type of situation. I prefer to expose myself to (usually not very nice) second hand clothing at some interval. Sometimes they have something nice. Parts missing I buy new.

I see some wonderful old leather chairs too, the best one was sold regrettably. I also consider buying a really heavy suitcase massage table that I absolutely do not need but it looked really awesome, was in mint condition and was absurdly cheap. A fun day.

Clothing stores nowadays strike me as if everyone is going to a funeral. By comparison its a depressing experience but sometimes you have to. I wouldn't be able to sell those cloths at those prices, I'm paying for their ability to sell me things. (fool me)
