Running a personal mail server in these times is a little bit complicated but well within the capabilities of anyone who manages servers for a living or even advanced hobbyists. That doesn't mean it is a sensible thing for most people to spend their time on. The alternatives are both very good and very affordable. I do it because this isn't any harder than programming or administering other server technologies and the only way to keep skills current is to actively work on real systems.

Many things on that list are not necessary to get emails accepted by the big players. There are many email servers with bad or outdated configurations that still work. To keep emails flowing to outlook/hotmail/live etc you need to sign up to SNDS and their junk mail reporting program and if you haven't sent emails there regularly enough to maintain a reputation expect to be blocked for no reason. If that happens there are ways to escalate the issue.

The basics you must do is secure your email server. Don't relay email. Have all senders authenticated over secure connection. Web email forms are a bad idea. You don't want to have to recover from being on everyone's block list. If you do any sort of mass mailing you would probably be better off moving it to a specialised email marketing platform. I handle some application related emails myself and you have to be prepared to check delivery problems and follow up. The ones I do are B2B, opt-in, relatively low volume, small number of business email systems who can whitelist and are expecting emails which is just about manageable.

The bare minimum to be a good email sender is to have your mail name, hostname and reverse ip all match up and to advertise SPF. I would recommend also signing with DKIM, advertising a DMARC record as these are very widely checked and not that hard. They generally will give a slight negative spam score although the downside is you get the occasional business that doesn't know how to configure their mail system to work with third party filter (eg mimecast). They may reject emails according to your dmarc policy for correctly recognising that your email has been intercepted and tampered with but usually those sort of mistakes get discovered and fixed. If you use an intermediary like this to validate your emails you have to turn off validation of these things on your own server.

It probably won't be long until MTA-STS is as widely supported by big emailers and used as a reputation signal so it doesn't hurt to set up a sensible cipher suite and a certificate on your server even if you don't care if emails are sent over tls or not. These addons are mainly a hassle because they all rely on dealing with lots of separate services - mail servers, certificate authorities, web servers, dns servers but this is because smtp didn't anticipate the abuses of the modern world.

I have dnssec and DANE as well but it is just for my own amusement like trying to collect all the moons in Mario Odyssey. No big email providers even look at it as far as I know.
Apparently so. I have the QC35 II, which has a button on the left ear can. Bose calls it the Action Button, and it's used to summon Alexa/Google Assistant; but if you don't configure it to use an assistant (through the Connect app?) it will cycle through the noise cancellation level settings.
I had a vague idea that I had read Shirley Jackson's The Lottery from this list. I checked it out and I do recall it, and it was really shocking to read. Apparently subscribers of The New Yorker, where it was first serialized, cancelled their subscriptions in disgust. Early cancel culture.

OK, but on this:

> I intend to keep pushing back against wrongdoing, or else it'll keep happening

Given that it's not obvious why this project is overwhelmingly more suited to spam than legit the subscribed/responsible email distribution of the kind I described, you're not doing anything effective to keep "it" from happening, and you're only succeeding in yukking up HN.
It seems to be an extension of the idea of Consideration in contract law. That makes sense to me. You can't change the agreement to extract more value without giving something back in return.
This right here is what the internet should be about. Stop debating whether this makes sense to do. It doesn't, and it doesn't have to. It's an absurd academic pursuit, and that makes the world a slightly better and more interesting place.
I couldn't find "The Desire Machine" by the Strugatsky brothers which is a prelude to "Roadside Picnic". For those who watched "The Stalker" by Tarkovsky this is a must read.
Let's put our thinking caps on ....

We have laws that represent our current consensus of good and bad. They can change over time.

We also have cultural beliefs that function similarly.

So, when I say, racism is bad, if someone says, "well, that's just like, your opinion, man", are they right?
No, I already have two MS degrees (1 in Mechanical Engineering, 1 in CS) — I’m not interested in more school.

Maybe that will change in the future.
That's a great philosophy to have and I haven't a clue what it has to do with the Pinebook Pro.

AFAICT all the relevant video drivers are upstreamed. Additionally, there has been official support in Debian since April plus an unofficial installer for Debian. Plus a pretty healthy interest in the Manjaro community and a lot of other distros. (I received my PBP in December, btw.)

What I'm saying is if you're a hacker and want to go the route of picking your favorite distro for a first-time-out Linux laptop, you really ought to be able to differentiate between borked configuration (esp. where reverse-engineered free drivers for a notoriously unfriendly GPU company) and underpowered hardware.

A good way to ensure success is to try out the hardware with the default install the devs shipped. The author didn't bother to do that and his review is misleading for it.
What was being proposed was a way of decentralising the crawling. I tried to demonstrate with some examples why that could not work: you'd end up with an extremely inefficient index. What you're proposing does not solve any of those problems. Sure, you'll get a weak signal about page quality, but far too late in the pipeline to inform the decentralized crawling and indexing.

But further, you are not really thinking through how one would abuse this kind of a feature. If doing seo, I wouldn't forge a page to have content that make it be returned for irrelevant searches. Instead I would forge some high quality pages to show up as having backlinks to my page, and boost its pagerank. Or to demote the page of people I dislike, I'd forge it to have results that make it not show up on any searches. Your heuristic would not work there: if there's no clicks in the first place, there can't be any bounces.
in python i started writing any function that takes >2 arguments as either

def foo(*,a,b,c)...

or

def foo(obvious_and_required_thing, *, a,b,c) ...

and noticed an immediate improvement in clarity.
Elite sledders are phenomenal athletes, often from a background of sprinting or Olympic weightlifting. Accelerating the sled takes tremendous power and strength.

I took the first nice car I bought three years after I got my first job to the dealer to replace brakes. They charged me $550 for it. After that I taught myself how to fix things, starting with cars, plumbing, drywall, electrical and each and every thing in my daily use. I haven't paid for any repairs or upgrades to my house or my cars in over 10 years. I invested in tools and educating myself rather than pay someone else.

I can now fix anything and everything that I use daily.
Thanks, this was a fun rabbithole.
Relationships are really important outside the business setting too. Often much more important.

Something that a lot of people in the business setting don't seem to understand.

My work friends are just that... work friends. I have to hide large swaths of my personal life from them and they don't usually stick around outside work. Work relationships suck.
Interesting. I thought there was at least good noise cancelling for shooting/hunting.
that's lot of assumptions why they are taking their lives, but I'm missing comparison with suicide rate in other sports

3 athletes in 7 years in one sport doesn't seem out of ordinary in extremely stressful environment where each millisecond counts
I'd put it a bit differently. If I were designing headphones for my own use, would I have them collect personal data and then give that data to somebody else. I like collecting statistics about myself, because they are interesting. For example, tracking exactly when I go to sleep, start my commute (pre-corona, that is), go on errands. But that is data that is for my use, and not something that I would trust in somebody else's hands.

For headphones, I could see tracking the usage by day, and by time of day. I could see tracking the average volume, the dynamic range, the frequency ranges used. How often do I spend listening to music, to conference presentations, to movies? Those would be fun data to have, but not something that I'd want under the control of a different party for privacy reasons.
> It might just be a misinterpretation of your joke by the quiet intern

> or you forget about a sensitive demographic of people when proposing an idea.

Both of those can be true, I imagine. I think the general idea is, though, in America, people who weren't white guys always have had to deal with those same concerns.

My privilege as white dude has included, until relatively recently, _not_ having to worry about those things because my "norm" was the norm society enforced over the norms of people different than myself.
Haha MSY?

Several years ago, they refused to do anything about a dead on arrival graphics card that I returned in a week (took time for other parts to arrive). They refused to even test, saying they'd only swap it if I came back within 24 hours!

I went to the manufacturer who took their time and my build was delayed by a month.
Nice project! I'm working on something similar with http://fungrim.org/grim/ and http://fungrim.org/
Sorry, I am not engaging in a political discussion way off the topic of working from home. If you really don't know - consider if your life will be any better after finding what some organizations supported by most big corporations state as their goals?
just waiting to see announcement of a new independent news organization in Hungary.
Is having an apparently solid pieces of wood that can be disassembled like puzzle pieces cheating?
I can confirm. Every now and then I want to edit some of my photos and run Darktable, only then to remember it has zero automation and a hundred of sliders for individual adjustments. It definitely requires dedication to use, more of that than I have to give for holiday photo editing.
Can we all just take a step back and appreciate what a techno-dystopia we're living in that this is now a headline no one bats an eye about?

Halo Infinite public beta far from what we've heard from Microsoft?
This exact thing has happened to me. Blew my fucking mind.

But I'm also a long time suck fony guy so, I basically accepted it as karma for buying this witch doctor voodoo noise cancelling anyway.
FYI, the ACCC has successfully won victories against Steam refusing to provide refunds for faulty games. Just because it's a digital product doesn't mean you don't have consumer rights.

If you buy a physical good and it doesn't work towards its described specifications, you deserve a refund.

If you buy a digital good and you meet the system requirements but it doesn't work, you deserve a refund.
When I did my degree, we had ISO Pascal and C++ (proper C++ not C with classes) on the 2nd year (1st was a common year to all engineering degrees),

Followed by abstract logic, Prolog, Caml Light and Smalltalk on the 3rd.

By the 4 year, you would have used Prolog in a couple of parallel assignments that also required it, Lisp via ELisp, as Emacs was the "IDE" for the Prolog and Caml Light assignments and some TAs liked to spend an hour introduction to not using Emacs like Notepad.

UNIX systems programming, distributed computing, data structures and algorithms would make use of C, that by virtue of having already learned C++, no teacher would spend a second with an introduction to C lectures.

Those of us that took language design and compilers, would still delve into proper Lisp, Cobol, Fortran, Algol, Oberon, and a couple of others even less known. The teacher driving this lectures would switch back to Caml Light for several exercises.

Since I ended up graduating as Java came into the scene, the very last year I ended up doing several projects in Java as well, while taking place in the national championship of logic programming.

If anything what frustrated me was coming into the market place and having to deal with C, while having been exposed how much better the things could be. Thankfully using it alongside Tcl made it not so bad, given Tcl's lispy background.

The problem is not the intro courses, the problem are the teachers and the material been given to the students. It isn't a big deal if there aren't many books available, when there are teaching notes (of book like quality) given by the responsible professor, which one can question at any time unlike most book authors.

For me what made the difference weren't the books, rather the teachers I had the luck to meet during my university travel.
In a similar (even stranger?) vein, in the 1950s there were cyclops baby sheep related to maternal consumption of wild corn lillies. Many years later this led to discovery of the sonic hedgehog pathway and related targeted inhibitors like vismodegib and sonidegib.

Trauma therapist-in-training here... There has been an increasing amount of research in recent years on the importance of the “therapeutic alliance” - Bruce Wampold has done a lot of work around this topic. There are also assessment tools that have been developed to help measure the strength of the therapeutic relationship, for example the “Working Alliance Inventory.” Measures like this may look at consensus among treatment goals; sense of confidence in the therapist; commitment to the work/relationship; mutual trust; actually liking of one another, etc. Not sure what type of measure or specific research was relied upon for the article (in fact I didn’t read it, was more interested in reading peoples’ comments actually), but hope that helps!
I think most HR departments would see it otherwise, specially in most European countries.
I don’t know the last time I took a shower. The days are blending into one another. My house is a disaster. Every day feels exactly the same. I work from home on my laptop which is next to my bed. I often don’t get out of bed to go downstairs until past noon. I take several naps throughout the day, but never feel well rested. My wife is losing her mind, my kids are acting like wild animals. I don’t know how this happened. I have no energy and just want to sleep. I wish I could go back to the office.
The first modern-day marine fish has officially gone extinct
The loss of this species may seem insignificant, especially since it hasn’t been seen for about 200 years, but it’s a noteworthy event: the smooth handfish is actually the first marine, bony fish to go extinct in modern times.
I wish I could justify wired headphones but I'm too much of a dolt, I've chopped the cord too many times and broken more laptops than I would like to admit.
Corruption actually undersells it.
QC seems more like the next, next, next big thing. We've only just got a POC for quantum supremacy. It'll be a while until QC outperforms classical in any practical problem, and longer until it becomes useful enough to get big.
Bartering for individuals tend to not be a taxable event.

It's muddy when it involves a business and an individual tho - very hard to say if it's fair to tax bartering. But it's certainly not fair (imho) to tax the individual just because it's hard to tax the business for it.
Note that it's not like other countries don't have consumer protection agencies - the US FTC also engages in a lot of litigation. I'd love to see a comparison of the effectiveness of various countries' consumer protection authorities.
For a long time, the high-risk crap-spewing networks tended to be the same bad actors (eg: OVH, Digital Ocean, Psychz).

This year though, most of my dodgy SMTP traffic is coming 3 new problem children - Gmail(spam), Amazon(spam, other) and Microsoft Azure(other).

"Other" here is anything besides spam, like dictionary attacks, transactionless connections or service probes.
I’m pretty confused then. What’s the benefit of DDG over Bing? Is it just marketing?
The title is incorrect to say the least, Intel isn't weighing on Exit from Fab manufacturing at all. They are simply contemplating the idea of outsourcing.

I think it needs a little more context regarding the reaction from analyst.

>“You didn’t need to read any more,” Sanford C. Bernstein analyst Stacy Rasgon said. “Whatever little credibility they had is out of the window.”

Few months ago Intel CEO in an Investor meeting promised 7nm by late 2021, and to regain its lead in manufacturing by 2023 with 5nm GAA ( "Gate All Around" also known as Nanowire ). That is not entirely impossible considering TSMC is scheduling their take on GAA with 2nm in 2024. So Intel would be one year ahead again. Volume will be an order of magnitude smaller but at least Intel could get that headline win.

So in less than 4 months, Intel is now saying the 7nm is delayed by 6 months, and dont expect 7nm consumer product until late 2022 and 2023.

That is why they have loss all credibility. They burned most of it with 10nm, and whatever is left is now gone with this report as well.

Also note something that is not discussed anywhere, ( At least as far as I can tell ). Why a 6 months delay of 7nm, initially scheduled late 2021, then suddenly becomes "dont expect 7nm consumer product until late 2022 and 2023. " Which is 12-14 months delay.

Witches of Belvoir 'may have been framed' (2013)
Where do you get the fingerprints to check against? Three intuitive but wrong answers:

a) By spawning the instance with a script that will post them to some API. Now you are just blindly trusting whatever gets posted to that API. If your provider offers instance identity documents, you could sign the request with that, but an attacker who can MITM within your VPC can presumably impersonate anyone to the instance metadata service. And if MITM within the VPC is not in your threat model, then blind trust (from another host in the VPC) is fine.

b) By having an SSH CA service connect to the instance to grab its public key. The CA is extending the same blind trust as the admin would have in doing it manually.

c) By having generated the host keypair somewhere other than the host. Now you have key material in the wrong places.

I don't think there's such a clear-cut line here. "Verify" just pushes the blind trust somewhere else.

I can think of some potentially better answers, for example write the public key to a block device, detach it from the new host, attach it to a verification service host and read it there. But this is kind of just reinventing networking... why do we trust the cloud provider's SAN more than its SDN?

Maybe in ordinary conversation cow is like geese. A goose is female and a gander a male of geese but most people use goose for the kind of animal.

Kids know what “cows say”, they’d look at you weird if you asked what do bulls (or cattle) say.

But as you say, a castrated cow does sound odd.
Hey man.. you sound maybe depressed? There's a lot going on right now and I feel some similarity. It's not just remote work. Things closed, oh and a global pandemic to worry about.

I don't have any solutions except I try to get outside and I know I feel a bit better when we exercise, get enough sleep, or get out of the house and do something.

Good luck
There are a number of people who want to get out of cities due to the current situation. If I hadn't signed a lease back in April, I'd be moving from my current city right now. Unless something significant happens to change my mind, I'll most likely leave in 2021.

You could get a 'dumb' bluetooth adaptor for your wired-but-cable-changable headphones. e.g. https://thebtunes.com/

Or you could just get some basic noise-isolating bluetooth headphones. It sounds like most/all of these headphones that spy on people are ones with active noise cancelling.
That’s an entirely different kind of noise cancellation than you find in most “regular” headsets.

It just blocks/reverses sudden sharp, loud noises (shots). It will let normal speech and such (and pretty much everything else) right through.
Which actually acts like a transfer of wealth. Education is expensive, and the assumption has always been that educated citizens help grow their economy and country.

But when educated citizens emigrate, their new homes get the economic and cultural benefit of another educated citizen without having to foot the bill for educating them.

Long story short, the emigration of educated citizens makes a country poorer.
