I hate whenever I get asked by a manager if I've got enough work. Usually I can say yes and they move on but sometimes I know that I'm supposed to say no and accept whatever new task they want to add to my backlog (along with the expectation that the new task is most important). It usually happens with the management that are not totally aware of all of my responsibilities and what I'm currently working on. They see what little I'm doing on one project and ask for more of my time, yet I'm already working nearly full-time on other projects. I know when it's about to happen too. It will occur during a meeting when my functional manager isn't in the room and a program manager sees a task that they don't want to handle themselves. It's usually a task that's been on their backlog for a while. Their eyes light up, they turn to me, and say "Hey, are you busy?"

I really do appreciate being given enough work to keep me busy, it's better than being laid off. But I really hate being given all the extra junk that no one else wants to do simply because I'm not 100% full time on that project.

Guys, guys, it's fine. According to everybody on HN who's so eagerly embraced Zoom and continued to use it even after the security issues, the only thing that matters is that Zoom is the best UX experience for video conferencing. Forget about the human rights, suppression of free speech or the fact that the company is wholly subservient to the CCP (not like anybody could've ever foreseen anything like this ever happening). Just focus on what's important: Zoom is a great product, far better than all the US NSA-ridden ones. So everybody should keep using it, no matter what Zoom or the CCP does.
That analogy doesn't fit here at all. In your case they intend to cause harm to someone at the start by literally shooting someone. You are presupposing intent and harm of a person and certainly there were neither in the hacker's case.

A better analogy, that maybe is more fitting, is you blow through a stoplight and kill someone.

That's definitely negligence but there was no intent to hurt someone, the intent was to speed to a destination.

The intent here was to use computing resources to launch an attack on another hacker group, nothing that would have intently harmed a person at the clinic. They could have accidentally hurt someone though.

And if they did it would be recklessness, certainly negligent , but their intent was not to kill someone.

And this is why we in the US have different laws for different situations that take into account negligence, intent, premeditation etc.

None of them are alright but the state of mind the person committing the crime was in makes it varying degrees of bad.

Someone who accidentally kills someone and someone who plots a cold blooded murder have both taken a life but, the one who killed on accident isn't as heinous or maybe as morally reprehensible.

Life is mostly varying shades of grey and not strictly good or bad and that's why society has complex laws to dole out different punishments depending on situation.

And finally, the hacker never harmed anyone in this case arguing on what they might have done is an abuse of the system imo. I might get up right now and burn my neighborhood to the ground, but you cant condemn me of it before I actually do it. (I won't)
I believe the FLIRC case is custom designed for the RPi4, not just "happens to fit" as you imply. Otherwise you have it correct; it's an aluminum case that mates down onto the CPU for direct passive cooling.

Note that it's clearly an injection-molded aluminum top-half and the bottom-half is plastic, just used to keep the dust out.

I would describe it as simple and elegant; fit for purpose.

Otherwise I'm quite happy to have a full passive cooling config, as currently my RPi home server must live in the kitchen/dinning room area due to space constraints.
Yes, I do because I prefer compensating content creators, because otherwise we will not have many of those. If some website has shitty ads (blinking banners, auto-playing videos, malware etc), I just avoid those sites altogether.

Since you seem to be someone who doesn't see ads on the web, I am curious to know how you pay for the content you consume? I have come across very few non-ads options which work well. For me, subscription fatigue sets in across various video-on-demand sites and various high-quality newspapers. But for a lot of my family / friends across the globe, subscription charges are high enough that they would rather see ads.

What you're convicted for in a plea deal is usually a step or two down from what you actually did.

So the prosecutor office can claim a large number of successful cases in exchange for lighter punishment.

There's different stories for what you actually did, what they think you did, what they can prove you did, what they think they can convince a non-technical jury of what you did, what the DOJ/FBI traditionally self congratulatory press release claims, what the plea bargain deal was for. Usually those multiple stories are only minimally tangentially related at best.

The somewhat overly self congratulatory DOJ US attorney press release from May 14, 2010 claims the guy got himself hired as a security guard to gain partial physical access, then did all this Hollywood style breaking and entering into secured locations he wasn't authorized to be in, removed the anti-virus from at least 14 machines, downloaded a password cracker from the internet, made an "instructional" video of the process. They couldn't prove he did anything TO the HVAC controller or nurses confidential access station, so the press release is full of "could have" and "would have" but kinda imply he sorta did but nothing bad happened and they can't prove nothing so...

Now in contrast to the above, his plea deal was exactly two counts of transmitting a malicious code. No breaking and entering, the other dozen machines seem to have disappeared, nothing illegal was accessed or modified, nobody seems concerned he cracked the passwords solely what he did afterwards on two of the machines, etc.

I can see how his description of what he did vs what he did time for vs what he actually did seems a bit dissociated.

Ultrasonic? I thought the whole point of these devices is to produce ear-splitting tones that can actually be heard by humans.

From the article:

> According to a detailed teardown of the LRAD 300X posted by another audio technician, the LRADs produced by Genasys, the company that pioneered the devices, do not use an ultrasonic beam to project sound. However, Rife and Liberti say their design would still be effective against these hyper-directional blasts.

By audit I'm referring to the people that worked on the code, not the code itself. Running background checks on a firm and having a strong contract with a firm is easier than hiring people to audit the underlying source code. It's not better. It's just easier. Based on the reaction to my post, people seem to think I'm arguing that closed source is better. I'm not. I'm providing an explanation for the thought process behind why some companies in some industries stick with closed source from personal experience. I'm not saying the reasoning is correct and leads to actual reduced security vulnerabilities/risks etc - it almost definitely doesn't. But people think it does, the legal liability is easier since you just have to sue one company, auditing is easier since you just audit one company (not the tech, the company, these are not tech savvy enough managements and firms to audit the codebase - as far as they are concerned, clear background check = code is OK to use for critical stuff). I agree with you that it's strictly worse. If you have better luck than I do convincing a conservative financial services firm that using R is better than using SAP, please do let me know how you pulled that off.

In this context, prevalence means something like "the proportion of affected people in some group."

1. torellas student (now at mit) release code for spectre defense. yeah maybe it was to help her job hunt, but at least it proves (to me) that torellas isn't just pushing crap in the past. i understand you have issues with torellas handling of this incident (as do I), but taking issue with his isca papers seems to be overreach.

2. i dont understand how you can pick on "cycle accurate" simulation when every simulator in our community has problems. at least in gem5 (one of torellas isca2020 paper), we as reviewers can look at the code. how about the famous "in house x86 pin based simulator"? most pin based simulators performance numbers should rightfully be joke, but we use them anyway, because we aren't going to rewrite them.

3. at the end of the day, most of our work is unverifiable, because we make so many approximations anyway. one young faculty told me "we just need to see the idea and determine if it makes sense". i just do not know if this is the right thing to do, or if its a lie we tell ourselves.
"Non-violent protest" is not rooted in good will because you don't want to hurt your opponent. The idea is to let yourself be beat up in order to win the media war and gain more sympathy/supporters. The whole point of this device is to not be hurt, which defeats the principle behind non-violent protest, so you might as well hit back with force. God knows the cops don't care if they permanently blind you, destroy your hearing or kill you.

New York courts have suspended Habeas Corpus, despite indication from the DA office that they had no intention to charge the vast majority of those arrested for breaking the curfew.

Another judge rubber stamped an subpoena against reason for mean but non-threatening comments against the FBI (“go to hell” I believe was the phrase), and a gag order preventing reason from talking about it.

Do not underestimate the willingness of the courts to rubber stamp shocking abuses by the police. They are, after all, the ones that made up QI.

Your appraisal seems fair... of the data you are working with.

But how many other financial instruments they own are tied up in CLOs on the books of other banks?

The whole point of The Big Short and Margin Call was that the banks aren't resilient, independent silos. When one bank shakes or falls, it can impact the neighboring bank which causes a domino effect. They all invest in slices of the things that the other banks invest in, they all do it with lots of leverage, and they all think they've hedged against the downside risk, but that still didn't prevent the 2008 collapse.

It's weird that people think that it's different anywhere else. In fact, the situation in the US is, if anything, less serious than elsewhere. Especially Europe.

The ECB had to bail out quite a few banks, and several states have done the same. Even now the ECB is preparing new bailouts for European banks:

I can't find any figures for the standby power for Ryzen 4000 series, but standby is basically off. The standby power consumption should be negligible in both cases.

It's also not obvious what that use case would be. You can put most laptops into standby and they'll run on battery like that for many weeks. What's the thing that needs more than that?

It would be interesting to compare idle power consumption, but for that we'd have to know what it actually is.

As another newish web dev, I think it depends. Best thing is to take a look at your local job market and see what people are using. In my area it's a lot of .Net, so I'm focusing more on that. Some other areas have lots of PHP jobs, others have Rails, etc. If you don't care about any of that, I still probably wouldn't pick PHP honestly. I went with Go for my toy project backend, but NodeJS is another good option I think.
The sin here isn't not accepting "nonstandard" TLDs. It's that validating an email address is extremely hard to do correctly, and that you often really want to know if the person entering it has access to the address. The only way to do that is to accept pretty much anything that has an @ sign in the middle of some other characters, and then attempt to send email to that address with a clickback link.

The thing that really annoys me though isn't email address handling. It's credit card number and social security number entry fields.

For credit cards, the number of times you should have to specify which type of card you're entering is literally zero. All credit cards of the same type (e.g. Visa) begin with the same number sequence. Visa always starts with 4, so, if I type 4 as the first digit, just call it a Visa card. Do the Luhn checksum validation to make sure it's a valid number and that I probably entered it correctly, and try to run the charge. If it fails, then provide an appropriate error message.

For SSN fields, the thing that annoys me is that there are basically 2 common ways of entering the number: XXX-XX-XXXX and XXXXXXXXX. So many sites and apps only accept one of the two and will complain about the other. It's ridiculous, because the presence or absence of the dashes literally has no bearing on the validity of the number. Just let me enter it the way I want.

Amazon is also involved in quite a few industries now via both AWS and their storefront, that I imagine the company wide NC would have _quite_ a bit of coverage.
Ah, so the thing I was attacking was the "if it fits in RAM, it isn't big data" meme. AWS is happy to sell you on the idea that you can use S3 as the persistent storage and then bring up the compute whenever. If you bring up the compute on-demand, then the network link matters, whether it's EBS spoon-feeding you data or you using multiple VMs and the right object storage strategy in S3 to suck the data out as fast as possible.

You pay a premium to have this stuff loaded up on faster hardware. If you look at how Redshift works on their compute-optimized nodes, everything's sitting in local NVMe SSDs (a slightly different strategy is used on ra3 nodes). They handle the fact that this is ephemeral with automatic backups. Cluster restores aren't exactly fast. I actually agree with you; if you've got some monster SSDs attached, which are comparatively cheap, why focus on the RAM... I believe there are reasons to do that sometimes, but not everything demands quite that level of performance.

For this point:

>> You _could_ write something on your own that just forks out a bunch of threads in a single process to rip through the data, but why?

> Because it's simple and easy. I wrote one in a few days. Not much code.

I think it depends on what formats you're using and how it's laid out on disk. A lot of people reshape their data into a table-like structured or semi-structured format, and that makes it a candidate for putting it into a database like Postgres or Redshift, and other times it makes more sense to bring the database to the data (the Hadoop ecosystem of stuff.)

For example my company still has stuff that writes out row-like objects into S3, and it's not too hard to write a single process job that spawns threads, reads the input files, and does some computation on those. They're on S3, so throughput kinda sucks, and copying it to local SSD only makes sense if you want to make multiple passes. But the Parquet format alternative of this data is tremendously faster to work with and genuinely easier to use, and the only barrier to entry is that you run Spark on your local machine and commit to using Spark with Elastic MapReduce to do processing for this data. Sure, you might only end up filtering through tens or hundreds of gigabytes; terabytes is usually rare. But part of that is because you only read 10-20% of every input file to do the work. It also integrates extremely well with other stuff we're using - it's even easier to just use Snowflake against the same data set, for example.

Sorry, I think I'm rambling at this point and not presenting a really coherent argument.

If the private company requires a state-issued license, and that license is dependent on the content on the site, then it's still government censorship.

This matters to me and might be enough to get me to switch away (as a former zoom defender). On the other hand, for the average person using Zoom for video calling their families, or for companies forced into WFH that finally set up a Zoom subscription and would have to go through self-imposed bureaucratic hell to swap platforms? I think the usability of the platform and simple convenience far outweighs any desire to switch right now. I wonder how sticky their consumer base actually is.
