The margins on that must be awful. A simple tax on imported wood would probably resolve the matter by rendering it commercially infeasible to import wood as fuel.

100% agree with this, and add the following caveat.

Don't be surprised if your partner "switches gears" and tries to convince you that you are being unreasonable and selfish and screwing up the possible deal (or future deal) with these "demands." Sometimes people present as friends only because it doesn't cost them to do so, but change their presentation when being asked to reduce the amount of money they may have been counting on receiving.

Be ready for that to happen and understand that your actions are not "ruining a friendship" they are merely illuminating that the friendship was an illusion to begin with.

Prettier, it helps me having clean code without worrying about writing clean code :)

It does take a bit to get used to it though, but then it's a lifechanger.
Here's the disclaimer that appears below any post on Daring Fireball that links to Bloomberg.

> Bloomberg, of course, is the publication that published “The Big Hack” in October 2018 — a sensational story alleging that data centers of Apple, Amazon, and dozens of other companies were compromised by China’s intelligence services. The story presented no confirmable evidence at all, was vehemently denied by all companies involved, has not been confirmed by a single other publication (despite much effort to do so), and has been largely discredited by one of Bloomberg’s own sources. By all appearances “The Big Hack” was complete bullshit. Yet Bloomberg has issued no correction or retraction, and seemingly hopes we’ll all just forget about it. I say we do not just forget about it. Bloomberg’s institutional credibility is severely damaged, and everything they publish should be treated with skepticism until they retract the story or provide evidence that it was true.

The documentation says:

> Closures are self-contained blocks of functionality that can be passed around and used in your code. Closures can capture and store references to any constants and variables from the context in which they are defined. Closures can be nested and can be anonymous (without a name)

I think, the term "closure" gains some unnecessary semantic meaning of a block of code / anonymous function. I might be wrong, but It is better to think about it as simply a technique for implementing lexical scoping.

In other words, "lexical scoping" is a property of a language, while "closure" is only an implementation detail to make lexical scoping work. So the term closure does not have to leak in the description and semantics of the language itself. What is your opinion?

Edit: I just think that such proliferation of terminology confuses people, making them ask questions like: "What is the difference between 1) function, 2) anonymous function, 3) lambda function, 4) closure?" Instead, focusing on the idea of a function (possibly without a name) + lexical scoping clarifies everything immediately.

It would take much longer and much more data to form a trend. Now is just all speculation. The first wave leaving would be people without strong ties to the Bay Area (layoff, no work, etc). They tend to leave for other regions, like you said. The second wave would be people still working in the region but cannot stand the deterioration in the big cities. They will move to the burbs.

No, but it makes it more likely. Meanwhile, you had a nights sleep and still show us nothing.
I suspect they are removing 32-bit support now to ease the transition rather than doing everything at once. In a few years the pain of Catalina will have faded (somewhat) and presumably they'll only have to worry about backward compatibility with AMD64.

All voip seems to have terrible latency and it's so frustrating! Mumble does a really good job with this and has for years, why can't we get that in a mainstream solution?
There could be an extension to the model, where a quoter can provide a snippet to the author's website and request a signature (perhaps from a common path like /.well-known/quotesign.)

If the snippet does indeed come from the website in question, the website will return a signature which the quoter can embed along with the snippet on their own website.

The signature would prove that the content came from the same person who controls domain X (as attested by the CA fo your choice). The user agent can display all this information where the content is quoted.
Currently all access goes out to the net and returns via the edge node. Works, but we can improve this. The ability to go LAN to LAN is an advantage of home hosting and some (many of the newer) web api services require https to work. One possible approach, on todo, adds a name server service on the LAN which maps your domains locally when you're LAN side, and a mechanism added which forwards certs generated on the edge node Caddy instance to be used on the LAN Caddy instance.

So this breaks SGX completely.

Signals new PIN thing relies (almost) entirely on SGX being secure to make their encrypted profile and contact backups secure.

This attack reduces the security of the Signal encrypted backups to just the PIN.

Edit: Indeed the authors point this out explicitly in the SGAxe paper.
I really enjoy finding how some of these cognates are connected, it opens up meanings and interpretations of words in English that I didn’t realize were there. It does make learning German a little frustrating though. I get this constant expectation that it should be easier because the languages are so close together, but the closeness makes a lot of things ironically harder. It seemed easier to grasp the word order in Japanese, for example, than German.
And huge environmental issues. Forests of 30 years old pine are not the same as ancient forests.
> OpenBSD seems even nicer but I also like having, you know, software and drivers that Just Work™, which already seems like it might be a problem on FreeBSD.

It obviously depends on what you're using, but don't discount it without glancing at driver support: I've had it running quite nicely on a handful of laptops – typically older Thinkpads and Dells – and the "just work" factor of the overall OS is through the roof.
the first "tribute" is a gerund (i.e. a verb taking the place of a noun) although i'm not sure of the gerund declension in middle english. the second "tribute" is an imperative verb (with an implied subject and object).
Krisp is embedded into Discord (enable beta settings) and the voice chat quality far exceeds any of the "business" focused software I've ever used.

Not to mention the screensharing is infinitely better as well. It's pretty pathetic of the busines sapps, we went through a day where I was trying to screenshare something and my remote coworkers kept complaining of lag, blurriness, or the app would just crash (slack). We went through ms teams, zoom, slack, and google meet. All had issues. Convinced everyone to install Discord and suddenly I was able to shared my desktop perfectly at 1080p without noticeable lag and crystal clear audio.

I'm not sure about in Britain, but in the U.S. we do sustainably farm trees used for timber and have done so for the past 100 years.
> Growing a tree, cutting it down, and burning the wood is carbon-neutral

It isn’t though. A lot of energy is used planting then maintaining a forest for 30 years, cutting it down, processing it then shipping it.
When timber is used in the building industry it’s a bit better but it is still notoriously wasteful. A lot of material goes to site and is binned - offcuts, wastage, over order and material in the wrong place.
In principle, sure. In practice, when a junior wonders why they can't find anything useful when they google or grep for "acceptlist", then what?
I recall at that particular time I just reeled off the prologue, but I was always partial to the Monk's tale.

The reason is silly. One of the first times I heard any of it read out loud, it was an English prof with an extreme Southern drawl reading Monk's Tale. I got a real kick of it, and always gave the Monk a little hint of the Blue Ridge Mountains in his honor.

Bullshit. If you had really lived there, you would know that Venezuela's problems are mostly caused by USA-imposed sanctions. The police are so "brutal" that they have let the would-be coup leader and CIA contractor Juan Gauido prance about the nation unmolested for a couple of years now. How many poor black Venezuelans have died under the knees of Venezuelan cops in the last month?
Did you read the article? It's a study by researchers at Harvard Medical School. They looked at satellite photos of Wuhan hospitals and saw an increase in parking lot utilization. They also analyzed search terms used on the Biadu search engine for occurrences of "diarrhea" and "cough". They found an increase in both vehicle counts and searches for those terms starting in August. I don't believe the government of China was involved and the same government has called the study absurd.
Using the volume of searches for a particular term to detect disease outbreaks even before public health or hospitals are aware is nothing new.

Can you expand a bit on the type of scripts/scenario you'd use for something like this? I presume the email + script would need to be something legitimate enough looking as to not raise any red flags during a glance over, with built in assurances you aren't causing any real harm against the target, and then properly configuring the script (or downstream actions) to then get exfil'd. Very interesting nonetheless.
Typescript - defining interfaces before doing any work is like visual planning. Adding it to old projects highlights a lot of unknown issues.

I'm looking at both of these this week.
> What's “schuleth” then? Maybe something do to with schools? It turns out not. This is a form of “shall, should” but in this context it has its old meaning, now lost, of “owe

It's still "schulden" (to owe) in German, and "trybut" is still "tribut", and "alle" is still "alle", and "hoppen" (or "hopfen") is still used in some German dialects as "jump"/"dance", and "alwey" (or "alleweil" / "ällweil") is still used in southern Germany for "always" - my grandfather still uses it. "Ȝelde" is very close to the modern German "vergelten" (repay) or "abgelten" (compensate), and even to "Geld" (money).

The only word that seems strangely out of context is "dettes", and as it turns out, this word is French.

As a German, when I read Middle English, I always have the strange feeling that someone tried to "correct" or clarify a Modern English text, but only partly succeeded.

To add to this, vim quickfix-reflector ( https://github.com/stefandtw/quickfix-reflector.vim) was life-changing for me.

It lets you modify and save code from the quickfix buffer, so when you search for something and it shows up in the qf, you can do a find replace / edit / etc. This is especially great for mass refactoring / renaming.
this looks great do you know if anyone is using it in production?

GCC doesn't implement the "dumb approach" that existed before it, and that Amiga and Atari originally had. The GCC approach provides enough information to the compiler that code can be optimized in the presence of inline assembly; the compiler is informed of what the assembler code reads and writes, and can allocate registers for it. It was much more flexible than the implementation in the original Unix compiler.
At this point SGX is just so broken that it seems like its only purpose is to provide PhD students something to write a paper on :)

You're comparing 18 months of migrating to K8s to doing nothing, rather than 18 months of other possible solutions.
Closures aren't necessary for lexical scoping, and in practice they're only real use (in imperative languages, obviously quite different in e.g. Haskell) is to pass around blocks of code combined with captured variables. I think this definition is quite reasonable.

This is an accurate description of most of the negative aspects of BigCo.
What I'd really like to see is effective source seperation and nulling. For example, if you could mute the screaming baby in the background of a VC speaker (this has been fairly common occurrence now that we are WFH and it's hard to get day care).
It would be fun if it canceled out screaming.

We somehow have this sexist social expectation that women who show their feelings (crying, screaming) are "hysterical" (really a nasty word) and not taken seriously. If so, men screaming should be equally considered a sign of immaturity and lack of self-control.

Also could help with customers ("Sorry, I can't hear you!").
Solar and wind are getting so cheap that you could feasibly overbuild to deal with low production times. And no, 30% is nowhere near the max, especially with storage
Wind and solar supply much more electricity than wood pellets. This link in another comment by regularfry shows charts and tables:

https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/data-portal/electricity-generation-...

In 2019, wind and solar generated a total of 76.55 terawatt hours. Bioenergy (which includes wood pellets) generated 31.12 TWh. Coal generated 6.53 TWh and gas generated 129.99 TWh.

In 2009, wind and solar generated 9.30 TWh. Bioenergy generated 9.61 TWh. Coal generated 97.80 TWh and gas generated 163.46 TWh.

This just seems irresponsible. How could they excuse this? It seems like anyone who has even peripherally been working with TEEs recently is _well_ aware that SGX is broken beyond repair. It's not just a matter of patching bugs, this whole model seems bunk.

I'm not sure what you are trying to claim here. Are you stating that western doctors knew about this that early and were hiding it or that your doctor had some advanced knowledge? There's nothing that indicates this was "well known" in November 2019 - and in fact that's why we are resorting to search terms and parking lot photos to pin it down. If western doctors were truly asking in November, that implies to me clear knowledge.

Employees of Axios don't share polital views as a rule, so I'm not sure what you are referring to. I don't see how that is consistent with the rest of the article:

'In a statement Axios provided to The Times, Mr. VandeHei said the note did not represent a change in company policy. “We trust our colleagues to do the right thing, and stand firmly behind them should they decide to exercise their constitutional right to free speech,” he said in the statement.

'Axios has a social media policy that prohibits the sharing of political views. In an October 2018 column, Mr. VandeHei said news organizations “should ban their reporters from doing anything on social media — especially Twitter — beyond sharing stories.” He added: “Snark, jokes and blatant opinion are showing your hand, and it always seems to be the left one. This makes it impossible to win back the skeptics.”'
I wonder to what extent this attack was related to work-from-home.

The hasty manner in which many companies were forced to adapt + open up their computer networks to accommodate working from home may have created opportunities for attacks like this on large organizations.
