Somehow Samsung Internet and Vivaldi, both closed-source chromium skins available on the Play Store, have always sparked more trust in me than the seemingly open Brave ever did.
We just live with a very loud sound at our house. Run water for any reason. When you stop, some 0-15 seconds later an enormous sound reverberates thru the house. Plumber says its 'water pipes growing or shrinking, rubbing against the straps'. But it goes on for 10-30 seconds. No water pipe in the world moves that long/that much?
One that comes to mind is the "thrangrycat" vulnerability. I say "thrangrycat" but the researches insist on calling it . I've taken liberty of shortening the excerpt to the more reasonable reasons, as the answer got more nonsensical as it went on.

>How do you describe the meaning of this vulnerability name?

>We chose to communicate through a visual representation of symbols, rather than “words.” Naming vulnerabilities using emoji sequences instead of other pronounceable natural languages have several advantages. First, emoji sequences are universally understood across nearly all natural languages. Choosing instead of a name rooted in any one language ensures that the technical contents of our research can be discussed democratically and without latent cultural or linguistic bias...

Edit: and HackerNews has indeed stripped the emojis used to name this vulnerability.
Ask HN: What one idea or lesson has transformed your whole life?
Wow. They appear to have a death wish.

If your entire raison d'etre is privacy and clear stated model then one covert shady move like this can wreck trust irrevocably.

If they had just declared that their model includes inserting affiliate codes then that would all be fine.

The codes aren't the issue here its a violation of trust. If I'm OK with mystery monetization stuff happening behind the scenes I'd be using Chrome.
Volts don't melt power cables, amps do. Regular cables do 2.5 to 3A, the 5A cables are relatively rare and more expensive.

you literally need 2 5.1k resistors attached to your USB-C connector to get 5V@3A out of any PD compliant charger.

And yet, even the Raspberry Pi foundation messed this up when they designed the first revision of Raspberry Pi 4.

It's easy to say "USB-C is a mess", but we should really be shaming the individual companies who mess this up. The spec is public, parsable by any competent EE, and there's tons of vendor support for standards-compliant solutions.
I'm saving over $100k USD per year after rent, food, phone, entertainment, etc. at age 24. This is impossible in Canada or most other parts of the world. My situation is not unique either, I know dozens of young engineers working at mid to high compensation companies earning around the same. Contrast this with new grads and mid level engineers in Canada earning < $75k USD and it's a no brainer to work here.
There have been plenty to cases where these things have broken down which caused years of delays and usually another tunnel had to be dug to get them free, sometimes they changed the path of the original tunnel to circumvent them where it was possible and more cost effective.

These machines are constantly serviced and aren’t operated one minute past their life spans.

I really don’t think you understand how many hours these things operate for....

To put things into perspective machines have a single digit meters per hours top speed and not high single digits to boot, and if you are digging in rock you are looking at sub meter per hour figures.

If you have a source to contradict this I’ll be happy to read it but honestly every source from articles to documentaries pretty much paints the same picture these machines aren’t worth their weight in scrap once they are done with.

How We Solved the Worst Minigame in Zelda's History [video]
No matter how many times I write a recyclerview, which is usually atleast one for any new screen, it never stops being the worst part of Android dev for me.
Sorry, VHF.
We might implement that as a profile option. One question is where such a feature should fall between minimal (don't show karma next to usernames in top bar) vs. maximal (don't show any point totals or karma about anything). I feel like it might be better to go the whole hog and just have the maximal option. 'nokarma'.
I also use org-babel to do the same thing at work, most recently with convoluted AWS CLI commands with lots of JMESPath query syntax that I can never remember. I use it for personal documentation, but it can also can make for very nice looking documents that you can later share with your team during Sprint retrospectives, or perhaps convert to a Confluence page.
Do you get payed exactly the same as your US coworkers? If not, is they pay still better than at canadian companies?
I believe you have touched upon the fundamental problem.

We severely reduced inherited political power in the West. It was bloody and painful, but it was accomplished.

We can reduce or remove inherited economic power also. Hopefully it doesn't have to be so bloody (I am not so sure).
I think English could work here with terms like "sparse" vs "low in number".
Actually, my students were having trouble following other tutorials so I wrote this for them. (I also just love talking about compilers!)

I’d summarize my tutorial as a shorter version of Crenshaw’s.

I love seeing more and more compiler tutorials. They all have different goals and perspectives.
Stress or no stress doesn't stem from the position you're in but from how you approach it mentally. While obviously your external environment will play a considerable role in how easy it is, you choose how you respond to external stimulus. While I understand this isn't really what you asked, I think it is important to highlight none the less. I've been both utterly stress-ridden as well as zen itself in nearly identical situations, it all comes down to framing.
My son and I are learning Blender together. I was an avid 3DS Max user for many years (Kinetix, then Autodesk), and Blender is both impressive and a comfortable next step. Never did much with Maya, though there was a detour to Softimage for a few years...

With a GTX 1070 video card, Blender has been quite responsive on a dual-monitor HD setup. Highly recommend that users try the Nvidia Studio Drivers. We started off using the latest game-ready drivers and the system was unstable, but after doing a clean install of the studio drivers (v 442.92), its been rock solid no matter what we throw at it.
Two pins for power, two pins for data, a pin or two for cable detection, what's the problem with that number of pins?
They work with c2c charging. Your source is probably not playing nicely with power delivery. For instance, Apple's original usb-c chargers lacked certain standard profiles and don't work with non-Apple products.
> Libraries should have major versions and the latest of each major version should be compatible with anything using that major version

Should, but accidental breaking changes are a thing. Plus flatpack more or less solves this by having standard runtimes (base collections of libraries/dependencies that flatpack apps target) that get security updates.

> That requires the person configuring the app's container to have both detailed knowledge of the app and detailed knowledge of the container system. It's common for this not to be the case.

With Snap, developers explicitly ask for the permissions they need and the approval process evaluates if it makes sense for that app to have those permissions (and by default or not).
No change. It's been 501 for a decade or more.
Would Blender be a good tool to do mechanical engineering (for manufacturing prototyping)? Or would a tool like FreeCAD/SolidWorks still be much preferable?

EDIT: found an answer here, [1], but that was from 4 years ago.

I had dinner with him and Wilde the day before the Hearne Lecture Aaronson gave as I was visiting LSU with some other grad students from Tulane. He ribbed me for talking like faculty. It's a great loss for science, the state, and the country.
Does anyone use Brave on the desktop? I thought Brave was only relevant on mobile, since mobile Chrome doesn't support extensions, and for some reason unknown to me people don't want to just use Firefox there.
You simply can't make a WiFi transceiver out of discrete components.

That sounds like a challenge... given that someone has already done something similar with a GPS receiver:

The point is that later releases will start forcing snaps on people without their knowledge.
I've charged my 1000XM3s with:

- MacBook charger (USB-C / USB-C)

- Samsung phone charger (USB-C / USB-A)

- MacBook Thunderbolt dock cable (USB-C / USB-C)

- Dell XPS 13 charger (USB-C to Power)

- Razer Blade Stealth 13 charger (USB-C to Power)

- Anker Powerbank (USB-C to USB-C)

and some others. They all worked.

And this list pretty much shows why USB-C is so amazing even if it might confuse some people on the edges. I don't need to lug around a bunch of proprietary chargers and cables.
During my years as a Buddhist monk, we regularly did two 90 day silent retreats(Summer/winter) and two 45 days (fall/spring) a year. It’s mostly a survival type period where you slog through the days, until you have a week or so of a breakthrough, with hyper awareness and enlightenment-like insights. They all pass and it’s back to surviving the rest of the retreat.
I guess it wont mean that parents on video encoding won't exist, rather that now they wont be standardized. Not everyone can be sponsored by advertising monopoly, some might need their technology to bring revenue by itself. However yes, the pool broke by too greedy companies (IP based companies, not technology ones) and hevc is laughable.

Fully expecting 100 better tools for this job to appear in the comments but if one person finds it useful then that's a win. Comments/suggestions welcome.
Latency. Just tested with a "hello world" page (18ms ping).

Chrome takes 102-200ms to render the page, Firefox takes 150-400ms. 1.5 to 2x slower -- and that's after all the performance upgrades they've done with Rust and Quantum.

Network inspector says Firefox is spending 150-270ms "blocked" before it even initiates the connection. On Chrome the block is 3-18ms (15-50x (!!) faster).

There's also UI lag. When I press Ctrl+N, I expect a new window to open immediately. Chrome and Chromium based browsers do that. I cannot even perceive the delay between pressing Ctrl+N and a new window appearing. With Firefox it takes about 0.5-1 seconds before anything happens at all. This seems to be another 10-20x difference (though I'd have to record my screen and measure the difference).

Curiously, Re: UI lag, I think the actual time until the navbar is usable is about the same. But Firefox waits until the whole window is built before it displays it, while Chrome opens the window immediately and fills it in. From a user experience (I do command, I expect feedback) this makes a huge difference.

I switch back to Firefox roughly once a year after reading how fast it's gotten. But I have been disappointed on this front every single time. I want Firefox to succeed, I really do. I am donating to Mozilla every month. But as it is right now, I can't tolerate such lag, for a trivial action I perform thousands of times a day.
minimaxir should add that one! It doesn't look like it's on the list.
But we're not talking about practice. The difference between theory and practice is not a reason to dislike the theory version!

I'd visit first and see if you want to live there more than Canada. I generally quite like Vancouver, and although I don't have the visa requirements for the states, I have no interest in moving on-location there despite the financial gap. I'd focus on what your interests are outside of work and then work to accommodate that.
Firefox on Android has a much poorer UX than Brave, which is the only thing that keeps me from using it.

Pull to reload, tab accessibility, and other performance and rendering oddities need to be fixed before I switch back.

I'm happy with Firefox on Linux though.
Just so people know the context, NBA player DeMarcus Cousins asked him on Twitter, "@GrantNapearshow what’s your take on BLM?" [1]

Napear responded: "Haven't heard from you in years. ALL LIVES MATTER...EVERY SINGLE ONE!!!"

Later in an interview Napear claimed to not know what that meant. "I’m not as educated on BLM as I thought I was. I had no idea that when I said ‘All Lives Matter’ that it was counter to what BLM was trying to get across."

The guy has had a sports talk show for years. Black Lives Matter was founded in 2013, and even if Napear had never made it out of the sports section in the news, should have known about it via issues like Kaepernick. it is absolutely implausible that Napear didn't know what his one-tweet, all-caps reply meant. If I were his bosses, I would have fired him just for being bad at lying. And even if he were somehow being honest, that is a) admitting to an incredible level of ignorance for a guy whose job is covering a sport where 75% of the players are black, and b) incredibly poor judgement to jump into the top political issue of the moment without even knowing what he was saying.

Oh, sorry, so the nation has been listing towards fascism for decades? That is not a refuting of any of my points.

Bush started the use of drones in war, but Obama bears the blame for them in my opinion, because he could have backed away from it but instead he doubled down. I would say the same for the treatment of refugees at the border. Obama built the cages, but Trump uses them with a sickening joy and enthusiasm.
Yeah, they just cost like 70$+ and are rather thick which makes them very sensitive for any kind of carrying around. Regularly breaking a 70$ cable in a bag isn't very affordable :/
All these names invented by phone manufacturers have nothing to do with USB-C capabilities, but to their branding.

Seems easy enough to catch the source of this prankster, if there is one. All he’d have to do, is notify the restaurants in his delivery radius, give them his address, tell them to never accept the order to this address. This alone should stop the orders, but to catch the source, ask them to take the phone number of the person placing the order, maybe to pretend to confirm the order, the restaurant calls back the person placing the order, if the person answers, give the # to the police.
The commit creates a new class "SuggestedSitesProvider" which looks like a generic system for detecting pageloads and automatically inserting affiliate IDs. So perhaps this is a nascent revenue stream for Brave that will be applied to more sites than Binance in the future.

Fundamentally D.N.S is a naming system but each site has a separate naming system via user names.

Something like this should also be applicable for social networks as well. I found this for twitter - https://blocktogether.org/ not sure if it is possible for others like facebook.

I just looked at their mod log. The last article removed by a moderator was deleted because it was "not about computing". I read the same article on HN, and it gave rise to some interesting discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23437529

Some of the most interesting discussions on HN are not directly related to computing, and they're one of the main reasons why I stick around HN (and would not be interested in moving to lobste.rs).
I think the articles like these miss the fact that even when USB-C "fails", in vast majority of use-cases it fails in a way that you still get your result - just not optimally.

Charging my phone with the wrong USB-C cable will still charge it when I need it, although very slowly. But I will end up with a usable phone. Not having a proprietary iPhone cable means my iPhone is a dead brick even if I have another device with USB port next to it.
The cable that comes with the Mac chargers is only a USB 2.0 + USB-C power delivery the cable and doesn’t support usb 3.0/3.1 data rates or TB.

USB type-C cables that support power delivery can have 2 ground pints, 4 VBUS (power) pins and 1 CC (cable connect/config channel) pin.
The charging is accepts combinations of voltages and current (Amps) and the cable limits just the current (3A or 5A), so a wattage label is irrelevant if the voltage and current are missing.
Grammar checking on Google docs had gotten wicked smart.
>Recently I was thinking about how my brain answers the question "What's your favorite movie?" and how I can easily answer that question,

I can hardly answer that question

I think I need to make a table of all movies I watched, with columns for different quality aspects, and then I could calculate a score for all movies. Then the favorite movie has the highest score.

Then I think a few minutes about the table, before answering that I do not really have a favorite movie
I guess for businesses the whole annual pricing is fine, if not preferred, but I wonder how many of these companies are killing any possibility of non-businesses buying their software. Maybe that's ok with them and they have some internal calculation that those people cost them more than they are worth.

I hate subscriptions, for a lot of the reason others have said (ex. getting locked into a piece of software that holds my data hostage), but I got a few others. Its been a royal pain in the butt to have a bunch of subscriptions during this time. I have a lot more outgoing cash and living closer to the paycheck since others need the savings. Companies are just lazy about subscription scheduling.

It must be paid on the first day of the month or a fixed day. For the most part, people pay rent on the first. I wonder how many creators on Paetron would make more money if the timing could be changed.

Let's say you have a product that is used by seniors in the USA. You might want to seriously consider doing a bit of work an allowing them to schedule to pay you on the third Wednesday of the month or the Thursday following the third Wednesday of the month.

The common refrain is that you shouldn't be buying product X if this is a problem for you. Well, maybe, but dips like this are a pain and not getting into a situation where accidents happen would be nice. Accidents resulting from a bank fee is just a pain.

The other problem is now you are a Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, Utility, and Rent competitor. There is a big difference between a one-time purchase and signing up for a continuing cost along with all the others.
Yes, I know.

I mentioned volts for frying, and I mentioned amps for fire.

And I don't think either failure can be caused by a cable failing to properly list what it can handle. Do you?

How is the wikipedia page non-pedantic compared to the article? It says the same thing, just in more detail.
Rather than fuzzing, why not just implement it in a language with a formal proof like Ada SPARK?
> Assuming you trust that the negotiation is implemented correctly...

Well, if you use a proprietary plug and charger, you need to assume the same thing. A cheap broken iPhone charger with proprietary dedicated Lightning port will fry it the same way as a cheap broken USB-C charger will fry a USB-C phone.
Software is largely enormous margin in an era of increasing drm and encryption because they can delay piracy indefinitely like on mobile with client-server gacha games.

Check out the revenue for mobile, it's insane because it preys on mass stupidity and tech illiteracy.

https://newzoo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Newzoo-2019-Gl...

Either way many segments of software you can be sure are making insane profits like Overwatch, league of legends with selling flags for skins.

The internet has given tech companies 24/7 access to the super rich, the super gullible and super mentally ill.

Think about that for a second, before the internet people with brainless spending habits had no direct access to companies they got their products through intermediaries. The internet is a game changer for software companies because they can trap software inside "the world sized PC" we call the internet.

The internet remember, is the worlds biggest motherboard, and whoever programs the motherboard owns the motherboard. That's how we ended up with steam drm, uplay, origin, etc. We've been getting hacked software and slaughtered on the privacy freedom front because the average consumer is retard level stupid when it comes to technology.

Many software companies are getting away with the crime of the century. I'll see if I can't poke around and find some helpful guides for you to decode corporate speak.

> So even if you use Firefox as your main driver, you'll still want to have a Chromium-based browser as a backup.

Nope. When something doesnt work in my FF then good bye. I cant be bothered to do extra work like switching browsers for to support their incompetence. It'been rare though.
Nope. I'm for it. But you can't get upset about social media "censorship" without calling for these companies to be treated as common carrier / public squares and I see a lot of the former and not a lot of the latter. I suspect because gov. regulation of enterprise is traditionally opposed by the same right wing that is currently upset about social media censorship.
