What's the deal with the group sizes here?

vsetvli t0, a6, e8, m8 # switch to 8 bit element size,
# i.e. 4 groups of 8 registers

vmsgtu.vi v0, v8, 9 # set mask-bit if greater than unsigned immediate
# --> v0 = | 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 |

If vsetvli results in groups of 8 registers, then surely vmsgtu.vi only affects v0 which is the first 8 registers? The following 8 are in v8 if I understood the previous writing correctly.
Interesting info!

Here's a good list of potential candidate countries which are neither in Berne Convention nor TRIPS Agreement:

It may take effort and money to be protected, e.g. setting up a legal entity in that country which takes full responsibility and you cannot be legally forcibly unmasked as being a proprietor, and other local laws may need to be fully checked out to explore other risks.

Nothing is a guarantee and perfection doesn't exist but it's fun to explore these legal layers.
You can be sure that "war games" are being played out routinely.

The problem here is that this is an obvious escalation with US as the aggressor and not all US allies are willing to follow the US into war as the current administration is seen as unreliable.

You even had the former and current (!) prime ministers of Australia warning of high likelihood of a war between China and the US within the next 3 months. Where the next 3 months of course is the period of the US presidential election indicating that they clearly see a connection between the US elections and increased China tensions.
Or you could see it as them using the Ada for it's exact intended purpose, to force businesses not to exclude disabled customers by imposing an actual cost on them that is potentially greater than the cost of complying with the act. Sounds good to me!

Show HN: Swyg Interview Practice on Product Hunt
The memo wasn't bigoted or creepy, it didn't even say anything particularly remarkable, though I do agree it failed to pay sufficient deference to the cultural moment. But the assertion that it was hateful or bigoted went unchallenged in all of the reporting around it.

If you haven't read it yourself, I encourage you to challenge yourself with an open mind and give it a read.
The response of the immune system to the virus and its mode of operation (deadliness) may be entirely unrelated. The T cells may react to some parts of the virus protein, other parts may be related to its effect in the body once infected.

Although the first three mentioned tools are quite generic tools that, in my opinion, any programmer should learn to make their lives easier, the list does provide a useful list for people wanting to teach themselves cyber security skills.

If you're experienced in the field then you obviously have already used most of these at some point, or at least heard about them. If you think the choices are obvious, you're not the target audience of this article.

What I think this list is missing is some more Windows-specific tools. Even if you don't like Windows, someone in your company will use it at some point. With some creative use of process monitor and log analysis you can easily spot infections across a wide network of Windows PC's that even antivirus might miss. Twitter's SwiftOnSecurity has made quite an extensive configuration you can take from Github to help defend your network with.

I'd also add tools like OWASP ZAP to the list for testing the security of web applications automatically. Very noisy, easy to detect but in a test setup very easy to find low-hanging fruit with.

I really need to give Snort and Nessus another spin, my last two tries weren't very successful but they were also quite early into my studies of the field. Does anybody know if these tools still the go-to tools for IDS and compliancy scanning, or have they been replaced since I first took a look at them?

Windowing saved our data table
I dismissed it as mere hyperbole in 2016 when people suggested this to me. Now I feel it has a significant probability of actually happening.

Also, I recently watched a documentary on the start of Nazi Germany. The parallels with current political movements are astounding. Fake news, discrediting experts, ignoring protocols, validating xenophobia, using disasters to grab more power - we've seen it all before.
Private chats can contain sensitive material that could be used to extort/blackmail government officials and/or business leaders, and in-app payments can be used for tax evasion, money laundering and bypassing sanctions. That in combination with the fact that TenCent or any large Chinese corporation is essentially an extension of the government means that WeChat can very plausibly become a threat to national security if it gains widespread adoption.

While I agree with your stance that this is infringing on personal freedoms of American citizens, and I too wish our leaders wouldn't always so eagerly infringe on personal freedoms in the name of national security, the national security claim itself does have merit.

I have a completely unfounded theory that the coalition constituting the current "right wing" are a cherry picked selection of the most easiest to advertise to people in society.

Furthermore the actual goal of a "right wing media" is to collect reliable, large, consistent easy to sell to audiences for advertisers and isn't necessarily committed to any particular agenda.

Also political opinions and grandstanding is cheap content, expensive journalism isn't required, so it keeps the costs low.

All the other consequences, just like they are for tobacco and oil companies, are swept under the rug. This is the content associated with the lowest cost, best audience, highest profit business model.

I sold bumper stickers in the early 2000s, all kinds of politics. The conservatives were easier; larger volume, longer time window (they sold over a longer time), the ramp up time was shorter, and the stickers were way easier to come up with. Much easier business.

Again, this is all from in my head, I'm not a researcher and don't have a paper trail here, but it's a fun idea and seems to match reality.

I turned at 49, two and a half years ago.

My reasons are many. Besides the moral side, I think having a lower % of methionine in my diet then someone who eats meat/eggs/dairy will help me live longer. I also lost 70 pounds, and nothing else I ever did got me to lose and appreciable amount of weight for long.

I did this 3 years ago. Marketing side, not developer though. I moved form Sydney to rural outskirts of Brisbane. Brisbane is still a major city and we are ~1 hour to CBD.

Where I am its smaller rural blocks often around 40 acres. These quickly get smaller as you head to the city until you hit suburbia 15-20 min closer in.

For myself and family its be absolutely awesome. There a great blend of IT and physical work having a WFH desk job on a farm. Also so much activity is on your doorstep so going for a hike/dirt bike/horse ride etc is something you can do for a quick break and get back to the office. Its a real game changer in doing these things which in city life was often planned weeks ahead and took much of a day. And generally great for family life, just the little things like the other day I build an impromptu flying fox off some wire rope we had around as kids latest hobby is to head into the bush looking for trees to climb.

For me its been incredible, but that said it wouldn't be ever-ones cup of tee. If you go the farm route its like having 2 jobs and your really tied to animal if you want to take holidays, so get friendly with your neighbours. Also having never really done physical work I love this aspect and even bought a bulldozer to do some road works and clearing rather than hire someone, its really cool.

If you like bars and clubs its not going to be ideal either as there no much going for social scene and at least around here some areas are unsavoury that you get with city fringes. But if you have family it probably will give you more quality time together.

If your thinking to would be good, Id say do it fast. The older you get the harder it will be. We see people like us doing it and no-one seems to dislike it.
To preface I'm going to be loose with the actual decision of Citizens United:
Ironically, since the Supreme Court ruled restrictions on spending money was a violation of the first amendment, one could argue that losing your paycheck, and your ability to spend money you would have otherwise had, is a form of losing their speech.

> the US as a whole has cleaner-burning fuel than the EU, which for bizarre reasons settled on diesel as their standard even though it's far worse for the air than gasoline.

Careful here: the US optimises for low NOx for health reasons while the EU optimises for low CO2 for environmental reasons.

See for example https://theconversation.com/fact-check-are-diesel-cars-reall... (the first website I've found that doesn't look like an all car manufacturers propaganda site) which claims "In use, on average, this equates to around 200g CO₂/km for petrol and 120g CO₂/km for diesel."

They even refer to the Kyoto protocol as a reason for the push for Diesel and also point out the issues with optimizing for CO2 only. But still it's not as simple as "Diesels pollute, the EU must be mad".
Pretty much exactly that. I doubt many people here actually bothered to read it for themselves.
I mean yes. I wish it was actually reversed on grounds that the ruling didn't stand. But that was the intention of the appeal. Dismissing it on improper venue is simply tactical. This is the legal system's way of saying, "there was enough contention in this case that we don't feel comfortable with the whole thing in the first place so we'll throw it out on a technicality and avoid inventing any case law here".
Wiki Mirror Writing
> by taking advantage of the provisions of Section 230. This is because it calls itself a "platform" and not a "publisher". This is fine by me as long as it remains a platform. But once it starts censoring opinions (like Twitter/Facebook deleting Trump's tweet) then it no longer is a platform. It is now behaving as a publisher. Then why should it be protected by Section 230?

The whole point of Section 230 is to allow platforms to moderate their content without becoming liable for it.

> The classic example involves Yelp, explains Jeff Kosseff, a cybersecurity law professor at the United States Naval Academy and author of The Twenty-Six Words That Created The Internet, a book about Section 230. If someone posts a defamatory restaurant review on Yelp, Section 230 ensures that the restaurant can sue the person who wrote the review, but not Yelp itself. It protects everything from Facebook and YouTube to the recently deplatformed 8chan.

> Section 230 also says that platforms can’t be held liable if they take down any content they or their users consider “obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable.” In other words, they are not obliged to host anything they don’t want to.

A similar idea is Mario, for Python code in shell pipelines. Its most novel feature is (optional) async commands, so you can pipe in a list of urls, make many concurrent requests, and then process them in a single line.

I don't get it. It's US companies standing to loose their stronghold (near monopoly) on social, advertisement, and other forms of monetizing the web if the US creates a precedent for "national security" in this way, as in "we're welcoming social networks and free speech as long as it benefits the US and can be searched without warrant." Quite predictably, governments all over the world will be pressurized to question why they should give US companies (bred by teethless US antitrust) a free pass to destroy their publishing industry. Publishers themselves will put this onto the agenda in their own best interest. The French are already on the fence to create new digital tax legislation after EU/US negotiation have been aborted by the US side. Maybe hurting Google, Facebook, Twitter & co is seen as desired collateral damage?
The cost of lockdowns are a US-only, entirely political problem. No other industrialised country has a remotely similar degree of unemployment or even homelessness as a result of the lockdowns - because they already had social safety nets and because they had the political will to implement adequate emergency measures to support the population and small businesses. Example: unemployment in heavily hit France in June 2020 is 1% _lower_ than June 2019. https://countryeconomy.com/unemployment/france?sc=LAB-
Social media neutrality isn't a 'both political sides bad' problem but rather an issue that ties into differences in strategies between conservative and non-conservative political blocs.

Conservatives, not just in the United States but globally, pour vast resources into using social media platforms to propagate ideas that are objectively false and to embed those ideas into the minds of vulnerable people. There is no equivalent effort by non-conservatives in any English-speaking country. Non-conservatives see ample ammunition in the actual behavior of their opponents and see no need to use falsehoods to help their cause. Compare: Trump claiming that Biden will destroy the suburbs by letting non-whites liven in them vs anti-Trump forces using actual pictures of actual children in actual cages. Also compare: the lies used to manufacture support for Brexit vs. the actual truths about what would happen.

Rampant dishonesty is seen by many, particularly non-conservatives, as social cheating and social media platforms that enable it are condemned by non-conservatives for pro-conservative bias.

On the other hand, social media networks that do not tolerate political lies will, purely because most political lying is done by conservatives, more heavily restrict pro-conservative ideas and be condemned by conservatives for anti-conservative bias.

There's no way to square the circle of responding to habitual conservative dishonesty without favoring either conservatives or non-conservatives any more than there's a way to be neutral in the face of a wildfire: you either put it out or you don't.

True, it also means to leave people to their opinion. The reduction to government is certainly short sighted at least.

People reiterating it to justify banning people have to live with the fact that they too might get excluded.

We have certainly dogmatic speech rules around racism and sexism while most people don't really perpetuate it, but can still be penalized if some schmuck thinks you have crossed a line of imagined decency.

Companies are really bad at policing speech, of course it would be restrictive. People demanding more of it should just be ignored because they haven't thought it through.
> How can Excel possibly be too complicated for simple tasks?

Excel is too complicated to send an e-mail for example. You can send e-mail from excel but it's much simpler to do in Outlook.

Excel is too complicated for simple math = if you want to do 1024*436 it is better to fire up a calculator rather than wait for excel to start up.
You are refusing to look at the bigger picture. China is at a silent war with western countries -it has been for decades. Tech is the backbone of China. We have to hit them where it hurts in order to contain them, otherwise you lose much more than "your ability to trade". China just recently passed a law criminializing anybody outside China - of any nationality - criticizing China or its regime.

While people like you whine about your chat app, it can be a matter of life and death if China is allowed to continue.
It feels dishonest - what have you got to hide? Are you going to suggest a different price depending on who I am? Why are you going to make me jump through hoops, wasting time listening to a spiel by a sales person?

I don’t think raw population numbers are as useful as they seem. Most ruling political states have been comprised of a fairly small group of elites. Think Britain in India, or even the Mughals before them. We should also consider that Canada and Mexico have been/can be more integrated into a single economic unit.

The more important part is technological innovation, and so far, I remain unconvinced that a closed totalitarian system will have as much innovation as an open one, in the long term.

Otherwise, agreed that the US does need its allies, though I don’t necessarily agree that it has alienated them. If you look at the real events, and not merely the media talking heads, there is absolutely a growing sense of unity against China. See: India, Vietnam, Japan, Philippines, increased NATO budget commitments, to name a few.

> The whole point of Section 230 is to allow platforms to moderate their content without becoming liable for it.

I am not against Section 230. I am against platforms misusing Section 230. They are a platform until they behave like one. When the platform itself starts behaving like a publisher rather than a platform then why should provisions of Section 230 apply?

> Section 230 also says that platforms can’t be held liable if they take down any content they or their users consider “obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable.” In other words, they are not obliged to host anything they don’t want to.

So was Trump's video about kids being "almost immune" to Coronavirus "obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable"? Which one was it? Are you seriously telling me that the President of the United States video about kids being "almost immune" to Coronavirus is in some violation of policy while porn/gore content that is posted on these platforms not? I have personally reported so many of these videos and they still haven't been removed. And if political issues are the reason for censorship then what about the other politicians in US and around the World who say as bad or worse things as Trump? Will same rules be applied there as well or not? If not, why not?

> In other words, they are not obliged to host anything they don’t want to.

Then will these rules be applicable to everyone? In that case, I can give you a million tweets and comments that are "obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing or otherwise objectionable" which haven't been removed yet. Nor has Youtube removed "obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing or otherwise objectionable" videos from its platform.

It is clear bias at play here. If you try to tell me that it is not then you need to take a hike.

How do you approach a reverse situation. Where you are working with a small team and there are lot of moving pieces. I work for a small org which builds and maintains their own in-house software. It's not a single product, more of a duct tape of tools. Given a team size of 10 people and ~50 projects, like a bunch of cli tools, web applications, desktop applications, written by many people and passed down legacy stuff, how would one organise the team and drive the development effort.

Of the cheaper blades, I really like Astra. For a nicer blade, I prefer Polsilver over Feather, unfortunately I have had to buy Polsilver from Bulgaria based sellers via eBay.

Interestingly, the difference between Astra and Polsilver is not much to warrant the price difference. So, when I'm done with my 100+ Astra and 100+ Polsilver, I'll probably just get more Astra. :)

I pair those with Arko and my shaves have never been better.
