DHS asks Facebook, Twitter, others: Take action on posts calling for ‘violence’
I thought about that, but it would require maintenance. This can be a mostly fire-and-forget method, which is especially valuable to me because windows is not my primary OS.
Perfect as long as you didn’t care about third party apps - which were very much a thing by 2009 when the Zune HD came out.
Wall art, poetry, music and movies: how AI is transforming the creative industry
ironic how an article divulging the "secret economics of a VIP party" has a "VIP access paywall" so nobody can read it.

I would like to see them write an article about "the secret economics of a VIP paywall article".

But seriously, articles with paywalls should be banned by HN. I understand why these services implement paywalls, but if you think about it, the function of these paywalled "articles" are actually advertisements because it's not the real thing. It's an ad to make you pay for something else (the actual content).

Basically when you share a paywalled article on HN, you are sharing an advertisement. I am pretty sure all blatant ads will be considered spam and banned from HN, I think it's the same for these paywalled articles.

I get sad about this. This project moved from an open source model to a closed source one. I have nothing but sympathy for the team for doing this but I do wonder if there is an alternative way of monetizing and keeping the project open source.

Seriously- what are the monetization strategies for open source projects? I know red hat, hashicorp and others sell a enterprise support and hosting solution as enterprise add ons to their open source projects. Wordpress seems like a great community built around building widgets for non technical folks, but have the source code available for programmers to extend and modify.

Is it possible for one to sell software and have it open source?
Technologist's Intro to Epistemic Injustice
I seriously hope Dell finally found a way to make more solid laptops because half of the ~30 XPS laptops I've seen around me needed to be send back because of issues with the device freezing or with the display.

I started out in November last year with an XPS and after multiple freezes I requested an repair that would take my laptop out for multiple weeks. Having seen my previous company send multiple laptops back multiple times I didn't have much trust in the certainty of resolution for my issues with the xps. My coworker at the time didn't have any issues with her XPS but I gave up on Dell and switched to Mac. Sadly my coworkers XPS broke down after 2 months and it's still being repaired after 5 weeks...

The specs of the XPS certainly are the best and the feel is great and I so hoped it would be a succes but it just sucks the experience is so bad. I often hear others still raving and reading about non problems so somehow I still think I might have seen a really bad batch enter the Netherlands over 2 years time.
I'm already failing at the robot detection, so I guess that game is not for me ;)
After reading the article, i have a feeling that the author has not actually used an Android phone, instead has only read about what features an Android Phone has.
Of course you can improve the tooling but it's not the only conclusion.

If you don't read the docs, don't have the right mentoring, etc etc, your first go at anything is likely to be of low quality. Calibrate your confidence better, especially for anything security-related. Don't put it into production if you've only skimmed the docs (the mistakes we're talking about are novice mistakes).

Another conclusion you could draw is "use a built in security library not raw JWTs". There's just as much reason not to use a security library as there is not to use a SQL ORM.
Apparently it's because a fluid ounce of water is about an (avoirdupois) ounce so, you know, super helpful reminder!

Like the pound being a unit of currency, a unit of mass, a unit of force, a unit of energy and a unit of torque (especially the latter two, who doesn't love having foot-pound and foot-pound being completely different things?)
My current Dell XPS had the pretty common battery swelling problem but within months of purchase. On previous models they replaced it for free but they stopped doing that. So add a possible battery replacement to their list price if you still want a Dell. Based on my experience with customer support and this battery issue this will be my last Dell. I'm looking at Lenovo for my next laptop.
An authentication protocol that has this many footguns and insecure defaults is probably just not a very good authentication protocol.
I really miss my first smartphone - a Galaxy Ace 2 that I got in final year of undergraduate. The difference between "I can send this email/check this wiki page" and not is massive. No newer phone has improved on the Ace 2 for that, but they are much more distracting.

Oh, and it played music to headphones. Through a simple, reliable, well-supported port that also supplied power, whilst consuming far less.

That said, 3.3" is pushing it. Nor do I have any confidence of support, or - outside the US - proper 4G (it might work - I'd have to check).

Too many presumptions about the inherent logic of how we structure things prevents us from seeing those who were not subject to this logic and it’s blind spots
If your goal is to learn something deeply and not just get something out the door, I don’t believe “just build something” is not the prevailing wisdom.

Building something is a part of how you reinforce what you've learned from actual material like books, documentation and others research. You still need to know some of the basic building blocks to get started.
Regarding leaving the secret in your codebase during development... always make sure the secret is not in your git history. Change it when you move it out of the repo. I know this seems obvious, but I always do a git history on files that might have tokens or secrets in history and you'd be surprised how often I discover them.
> I think iOS would be never like nowadays if no Android was released, without Android will never innovate as much - due monopoly of one company using that OS.

The same would be true the other way too. Without iOS and Apple, Android-the-OS would be stuck with data sucking, data slurping, battery draining apps and users being buried in an ecosystem that thrives on this right from the company making the OS (most Android users wouldn’t know what rooting is or how to avoid all the data being collected and exfiltrated). Google has also started to change its tune and some of its behaviors on this front (though it’s still not as much as iOS).
It's absolutely terrible in Safari.

They switched to JS page transitions instead of a full page reload, but it's actually slower. I end up always hitting refresh right after clicking on a video and the URL bar updates and a full refresh is still faster than their JS-based one.

The entire page just feels heavy, and I'm afraid of clicking anywhere as to not disturb the page and cause a reload.

Fortunately there's a third-party web frontend for YouTube that doesn't have these problems: https://invidio.us
We began using OKRs at my job a few quarters ago and it's been amazing. Though there are two very important points to make here, that I don't think the OP included:

1. Contrary to the article, I would say that OKR's need not be binary (complete or incomplete). We use a 0-1 scale but we consider >=0.7 to be considered "done enough". The reason we do this is to encourage our teams to strive for ambitious yet realistic goals.

2. Essential to the idea of OKRs is the distinction between outcomes and outputs. An output is the actual work you're going to do, whereas the outcome is the resulting change/effect you want to have. A KR should track the outcome, not the output. When devs first start out using OKRs, they write in KRs like "decrease lines of code by 25%". This is actually an output. An outcome would be "customer spends 50% less time waiting for page load". Reducing the lines of code would contribute to that outcome, but so would many other things. Those are outputs.

Here's a great book on the subject:

Until mermaid comes up with the vast list of diagrams one can create in Plant UML, I don't see it as operating in the same weight class. E.g., wireframes, basic Gantts, AWS diagrams, component diagrams with graphviz (thought I confess I hate this dependency), archimate diagrams if you're really hardcore.
If you don’t care about being a crap manager, maybe.
I think this is new, at least compared to the one they originally released. The page says that it's carrier unlocked, whereas the original one was locked to Verizon (via a primary big phone).
If the Palm is the only device I have on hand, I want the camera to be very good or great and his was my deal breaker. It is also V1 hardware which I never buy because there are always unfixable issues and sometimes companies don’t survive their first product (this is a startup that licences/bought the brand).
Doesn't look too bad.

The page mentioned that: 10th generation Intel® Core™ 10nm mobile processors and up to 32 gigabytes of RAM

But on the product page, we can only get either 8 or 16 GB of memory. Do you know if it's possible to buy these with 32GB of RAM from Dell?
It is not ok, but that is how telecommunications industry has ever worked, "want updates? get a new phone".

It hasn’t work that way since the iPhone came out - in 2007.

I agree it is very stupid, but if Google prefers to have Android in every piece of mobile CPU without arm wrestling OEMs, that is never going to change.

Yet and still not only can I update my Windows PCs directly from Microsoft without having to wait on the OEMs, I was also able to stick a Windows 7 DVD in my 2006 era Core Duo Mac Mini, install it and it recognized all of my hardware flawlessly. Apple abandoned it years ago, I could still run a supported version of Windows through the beginning of this year.

Microsoft figures this out on PCs over 15 years ago with WinHEC and plug and play.
>the US is worst hit entirely

How is it that people still claim this with a straight face? The US has the most number of deaths on an absolute basis, but by per capita Belgium, the UK, France, Spain, and Italy are much worse off. (The US has more people than those countries combined.) Of the large western European countries only Germany did significantly better on deaths on a per-capita basis.

There is a real discussion to be had regarding how Western countries in general did versus the likes of China, Taiwan, and Vietnam, but that's not the same thing.
I didn't see a paywall, maybe something between UBO and umatrix blocked it successfully.

However, I agree with you that paywalled articles are a blight and should be banned.
Deloitte Launches the Deloitte AI Institute –A Centre to Advance the Development
Seems like an interesting idea, but I'm still not quite clear what it does exactly (other than speeding up an uploaded video). And only showing it in a video isn't great - IMHO you should expand on the text on the page, link a live example, ...

I also can't replay the demo video without reloading the page.

One of the few marketing uses of a pun where I'm not groaning immediately ;)

Perl7 vs. Raku: Sibling Rivalry?
> Just because it's easy to derive doesn't mean it's immediately obvious

is what I was responding to. My point is this -- there is no derivation happening there. If it was pedantic, obvious and simple to you as you claim, I wonder why you claimed that it was a derivation.

To you the distinction between a definition and a derivation might be a pedantic one, I have doubts on whether that is an universal or even an useful position to have.
What is the point of having advanced technologies, products, and services that are largely inaccessible to large segment of the population? There is something inherently structurally broken how US operates.

I pay about same amount for an unreliable 50Mbps cable internet connection at my home in US, and for 1Gbps Fibre internet connection at my home in Japan.
Back in the years from 2003 to around 2008 Iraq was very dangerous and hostile. You should check out the historical press releases from the DOD. The ones where the DOD announced the casualties. It was depressing. However, there were always people enlisting in the military and in fact the USMC and the Army expanded.

I think going to a term of enlistment would be a good think and would allow the police department to only retain the best. The default could be that the police department could only retain 50% of the first term police officers.
Docker Private Registry – Setup

Dell has a strange website. Last time I was looking for a model with lots of RAM it took me ages until I understood how to get to the part that lets me configure it freely.
My sister was a model in Los Angeles, and when she got a bit too old for that, she did this for a while.

Here's how she operated. She knew and networked with many other models in the area. A club promoter would tell her he needs X number of women at this club on this night.

My sister would then wrangle the requested number of women to go out. She would absolutely lie and not tell them that she was being paid $1,000+ to bring them out.

She would make up lots of lies to tell them. Oh, this event is happening, or this celebrity will be there, or these people you should meet. Whatever she could do to get them there.

These women would then be given free alcohol or any drink they wanted all night. Drugs if they wished as well.

Pretty messed up, in my opinion, and I think it brought her down a dark path. But it was interesting to hear about the business side of this first hand.

One time I was down in LA and she took me to a very high end club and I got to see all of this up close. No way I would of gotten in without being with her.

Different world.

Not entirely related to phones, but it is nice that my iPad that I bought in 2016 has gotten operating system support for external hard drives, Ethernet (long story), good support for external pointing devices, better multitasking support, etc.

Give it a few weeks. Everyone's given up on the whole lockdown/social distancing thing, and people are going out with abandon. Cases are spiking to record levels. [1]

The US is kind of the worst of all words right now: shut down the economy for 6 whole months, savage businesses large and small -- then, as though everything's magically gone back to normal, just re-open, paying the human toll as well. All while bailing out Wall Street and trying to dig up PPE hair on fire style and preventing meat packers from suing their employers for maintaining an unsafe work environment.

It's kinda nutty just how much of an abject failure the US response has been.

Because it's too simplified of a question. That's highly dependent on things like age, sex, and pre-existing conditions. Population wide numbers are in turn dependent on population structure and in turn who gets it.

You see similar problems in places like /r/covid19 on reddit where people argue about IFR with few accepting the meaninglessness of the question.

Complexity is hard, but I don't think the world is better if we oversimplify things.

Glad you liked my post. That issue still remains the most popular page, apart from the homepage, for the project on GitHub at 1,436 views over the last couple of weeks. For comparison, The next most popular is the issues page at 814 views. Must still be a lot of developers getting stuck with their permissions.

I have to admit, when I started development I was on Windows and would just 775 everything on my webspace to get it going, or 777 if that fails. It wasn't until using Linux as my primary desktop OS that I really learnt permissions.

You could return the set of moves, or you could -not- do that, and just run the state machine in the client.

That way, you don't have to complicate the server by making it calculate future moves and write yet another client which is purposefully less featured, but still intelligent enough to parse the returned moves and map them to whichever piece is selected and you have less code to maintain.

You can keep on gambiting around the problem with "concessions" which is easily solved by activaing code you've already written on the client side but that's no more than a mental exercise and has little to do with efficiency in problem solving.
All of them are healthy. Although you may want to define healthy.

I ended up watching the full 61 minutes video!

As a common man, it was fascinating to see how the sun goes through solar activity cycles:
1. The first one-third was really active.
2. The activity started slowing down in the next one-third.
3. Sun seems to be taking a pause in the last one-third.

A couple of other things that I noticed:
1. The poles are, relatively, quiet for the entire duration.
2. The solar activity takes place mostly in two bands, both equidistant from the equatorial plane.

Maybe, an astrophysicist or some knowledge folks can explain these things in a much better way?
We need the ability to switch phones more easily than a SIM swap.

Getting a paper clip or equivalent out is too fiddly, and the cards are too easy to drop or lose.

If we can get to a place where your phone number is an account that your phone is logged into, then your choice of phone can become more like a fashion accessory for the day, and be selected on the basis of events, rather than needing to be all things for all occasions.
