The sooner that these cloud companies work to create a common open API the more secure and better off we'll all be. The idea of spending so much time being specialized for a particular cloud provider is stupid, when you've built your tech career not knowing actual technology but just a proprietary overlay that doesn't even resemble anything useful outside of the organization.
Seems natural. The only proof he has of the claims of risks against national security seems to be his typical wild ramblings of “a lot of people say! Everyone knows! Just read the manuals, read the books!” While not being able to mention a single name or fact.

I ran codegolf.com many moons ago, and made the mistake of selling up for what I thought was a decent amount of money, only to realise they only bought the user list. I naively thought they would improve the site and put more effort in that I could at the time.

> Critical thought requires not only analyzing a position from contrary points of view

I don't disagree with you, I'm just stopping right here. Like you said, it's a requirement. So contrarians are more likely to have it.

It's just a technical truth. It doesn't mean they're more likely to be right or that they have a better grip on reality. They just have one of the prerequisites, so they're more likely to have the thing.
It's the same in Canada, too.

That's a crappy experiment. There is no way to disprove the result. So, how about instead, you choose 2 products. Flip a coin to decide one them to talk about. Just think of the other one. See how long it takes to see the product you talked about, and how long it takes to see the product you only thought about. Repeat a few times for different pairs of products.

If google is listening, the time for the product talked about should be way shorter then the one you only thought about. If google isn't listening, there shouldn't be a pattern.

Now, it is really important that you flip the coin. Also, do NOT TALK TO ANYONE ABOUT THE PRODUCTS YOU ARE USING. We want to test the microphones, if you make a search for the product, or you tell a friend, and the friend makes a search for the product, that is all information signal that ad companies could be using.

That's not what he means. They consistently pass exec orders that at the core would be legal, if they allowed for due process, but they rush it or are incompetent so they get overturned.

In this case, the order bans any US citizen from doing business with ByteDance, and doesn't make a carve out for retaining a US lawyer, which is a violation of due process and means a judge could overturn the order.

If they just added that carve out, it would probably be entirely legally defensible. That one dumb mis-step could mean it gets overturned. This keeps happening with the Trump admin, it's the same reason the DACA repeal was overturned by the supreme court.

When my partner and I were dating, there was a long period where we were long distance, as they were in China teaching English. I can recall 3 projects that came out of this time

I helped set them up with an SSH tunnel, and appropriate browser settings, for bypassing the Great Firewall.

I wanted to teach them how to play Magic: The Gathering, and MTGO at the time did not seem like a good option. I built a very basic 2-player game which allowed for specifying a decklist as a set of image URLs, and had the basic motion primitives of shuffling a deck, drawing, tapping cards, and such.

One particularly nice UI thing it had, which I wish I'd see more often, is that it showed you each others cursor positions in real time, so you could virtually "point" as part of discussion or communication. [The source for this has likely been lost to the bitrot of time, but it might be buried somewhere in a backup]

Finally, we liked to watch TV shows or movies together. This was initially done as "download the same file, get on VOIP, and count-down to start", but this was fiddly, especially if someone had to pause or rewind. I built a very simple utility to synchronize playback of the file between two VLC instances. It looks like this is actually my oldest github repo! https://github.com/YenTheFirst/VLCSync

More than a decade later, they're no longer in China and thus don't need to bypass the firewall, and we lost interest in M:tG, but we married, and the video synchronization problem became remarkably simpler. :)
there are hard problems in the world. we need rational national strategy to give ourselves a chance.
My family has been decontaminating our N95 masks with ozone. I bought a battery-operated O3 generator and if you place it into a tupperware container along with the mask, it will decontaminate it and then you can use it the next day. Yale School of Medicine has done a study on the efficacy of this method. [1]

I prefer this method because it doesn't degrade the mask at all, it needs no disinfecting/harsh chemicals, it penetrates into the pores of the mask completely, and it's near fool-proof.

I traced this mark application through its two year application and approval process and PrePear had its application suspended once for possible confusion with a Hong Kong based app company called Pear Technology Limited but nothing from Apple.
Yep. Most people don't realize it, but each platform is a game. You have large masses of people who engage with the platform earnestly since they don't realize it's a game, but then you have a relatively small number who consciously or not have figured out how to "cheat" at the game using the strategies you've described. The payoff can be attention, a job, a book deal, or simply the satisfaction of making people mad online.

Part of the genius of HyperCard was that it didn’t take long for someone to learn the whole language and all the things you could do. Once I hit the edges there were a few things I wanted to do that HyperCard didn’t support but I found I could write an XCMD (external command) in Pascal or C to add any feature I wanted. That involved buying a compiler and Inside Macintosh books, and learning a much harder language, but I was so enthused with what I’d created so far that I didn’t want to stop. Each individual XCMD I wanted seemed small enough that it seemed possible to write. Once an XCMD was done it was easy to use and reuse on different projects.

As it turns out, I’m weird, and very few people made that jump to XCMDs and soon I had a full time job writing them. Eventually our products were so XCMD heavy that I started writing Mac apps from scratch in C. It was a nice gradual seduction into programming from the career I was originally trained for.
“would be better”

There are other inputs to growing outdoors: fertilizer usage, water usage, and insecticide/pesticide usage (likely not an exhaustive list). In a controlled environment like an indoor farm the use of each of those is dramatically less than in traditional farming. It would be worthwhile to include all of the inputs of growing food since light and transportation are not the full list.

(disclosure: I work for an indoor, vertical farming company)
Some comments have already touched on this, but it is important to realize just how much electricity we are talking about. The tl;dr is that replacing US wheat production alone would use five times the current total US electricity consumption. And that's for wheat, occupying about 10% of US cropland.

See p. 12 of the Supporting Information and you'll find the following: 2026647 kg wheat grown using 798417 MWh electricity means an electricity consumption of 0.4 MWh/kg wheat. In the US, the annual wheat harvest is 150-200 kg/capita/yr, which in this hypothetical system would use more than 60 MWh electricity/capita/yr.

For comparison, the US annually uses around 13 MWh electricity/capita.

That is, this hypothetical wheat production in the US would use about five times the _total_ present day electricity use.

Soybeans and maize together occupy more than three times the wheat area in the US, so that (very roughly speaking) adds another annual electricity consumption of ~200 MWh/capita. With just these three major crops, the US would have to increase its total electricity consumption about 20-fold.
There is a difference between criminal law and civil law

If the state wants to throw you in jail, you get a free lawyer.

If some random person alleges you harmed them snd they want you to stop and reimburse them for the harm you caused them, you pay for a lawyer

That is one rotten apple.
> The source familiar with TikTok's internal discussions on the matter says the president's order appeared rushed and did not include carveouts or exceptions for TikTok to maintain any legal representation, which the company plans to argue is a violation of due process rights.

This is the important part for me and the reason the order could actually be overturned and need to be redone.

The administration keeps doing these half-assed orders that would go through fine if they just did the process correctly, but for one reason or another they seem incapable of it.
There is this thing called the scene and verification files.
The right to have an lawyer provided by the state only applies to criminal cases, not civil cases like in this one. In civil cases the burden of funding a defense is on the defendant. Even if it’s initially thrown out, the appeals process can take years and even more money.

It costs money, and the market share is not so big. It has nothing to do with inter-operation, as Intel has proved. People also say nvidia's driver is great except from the friction coming from nvidia's political decisions not to cooperate with the rest of Linux community.

That's how it works in theory. I'm going on a limb here and will assume that you've never fielded or defended a lawsuit in NL. I have. Several. Yes, in theory the loser pays. But in practice the loser will rarely be ordered to pay all of your costs. The court will make some highly theoretical computation about what your lawyers have cost you, which will be a very small fraction of what they really cost you.

This theoretical amount you can then retrieve from the loser. You'll still be out the bulk of your legal fees.
Only where it's applicable. A meal planner company that has a logo that looks little like an apple logo doesn't really fall into this. If it was a phone shop then sure, but this is well outside of the needs-to-because-law scope and into the bullying scope.
This is absolutely the case - we need to be happy to admit we're wrong. I think everyone would agree.

But what if your whole paradigm is wrong? What if the entire idea you are labouring under, is mistaken? Can we even consider this and change tack? Can the Verge consider this idea?

No.

I'm indifferent to vaccinations - I don't know if they cause more good than harm. If pushed, I tend to think that the human body is a better handler of disease than doctors, given the right food, water, and general environment.

I do see that the medical industry does stand to benefit from selling vaccines. This is to say that as for a man with a hammer every problem looks like a nail, for the medical industry every problem requires medical intervention. They cannot in good conscience to their shareholders recommend that people eat a better diet, not go to hospital to give birth, nor gain natural immunity. Such answers cannot be leveraged for profit.

I think its fair to say that we have a sickness industry, where all the incentives are to treat sick people. We do not have a health industry - where someone gets paid for ensuring that we live as long and as well as possible. The incentives are all wrong. Perhaps the industry is happy to have a large pipeline of sick people, or people that they can 'treat'. Of course companies think mostly of profit - but would they even go so far as to create (fake) opportunities to open new markets to the world? Do vaccines that needs to be taken annually, by a global population, perhaps mandated by law, constitute a big enough market to make it worth it? Could such an industry admit a mistake?
> because the milk-industry propaganda at the time said it was important for kids to drink a bunch of milk for bones and growth and other stuff that was never true and was known to never be true.

Care to provide some proofs? I live in a post-soviet country and from stories I heard regarding USSR, even adults in factories received milk (for free) daily.

That would indeed be a pretty good topic to hear about.

An interesting story related to rep movsb was how the original Pentium-based Larrabee supported gather/scatter, as described in this slide deck from Tom Forsyth: http://tomforsyth1000.github.io/papers/LRBNI%20origins%20v4%... (gather/scatter info on slides 48-61, important background about virtual memory/pipeline in slides 21-28)

A summary:

The original Pentium had a very simple pipeline that could only access one cache line per instruction, and had to determine if there was a page fault early in the pipeline. This presented a problem for the Larrabee design, which needed to support gathers/scatters (which are vectorized loads/stores, and can read/write up to 16 different cache lines in one instruction). Additionally, the Pentium microcode system was quite slow, and gather/scatter performance was very important for many workloads.

To solve this, they looked at how rep movsb (which can read/write an arbitrary number of cache lines) works: as it executes, rep movsb modifies the cx, si, and di registers in place (or their 32/64-bit counterparts). This side effect actually helps keep the implementation simple, because if an interrupt occurs in the middle of the instruction, the registers keep all the state needed to continue executing after control returns to the instruction--it just keeps copying from where it left off.

So gathers/scatters used the mask registers from the Larrabee vector instructions to keep state: a bit in the mask indicates that a vector lane still needs to be read/written. The instruction is then run in a manual loop (not a microcoded rep prefix) until all bits in the mask are cleared. Interestingly, this implementation can be faster than gather/scatter in a modern AVX-512 out-of-order core: whenever multiple vector lanes point to addresses in the same cache line, those loads/stores can all execute at once; in contrast, in the big cores gather/scatter are split into one load/store micro-op for each lane, that each execute independently. And the masking isn't taken into account before the uop split, so gathering with only a single address unmasked can still take more than 16 uops (see https://mobile.twitter.com/trav_downs/status/122333322625875...)

Out of curiosity, do you have a source for these numbers? It's interesting to hear that one dairy cow's lifespan effectively covers enough milk for two average human lifespans worth of consumption.
A link to your claims would be great. Otherwise, it's hard to take it seriously.
Soy milk is just as reasonable environmentally and probably a little healthier as a nutrition source compared to oat milk. Though the flavor of soy is a little harder to get used to.

This is an interesting question. I began using the internet at an early from 8th grade when things like Facebook didn’t even exist.

I remember spending a lot of time reading about the reptile conspiracy, 9/11 conspiracies. I actually spent a lot of time seriously considering whether some of this information was true.

The internet turned me into an atheist inspite of growing up in a religious setting.

Blogs on the internet were much more aware of the impending financial crash in 2008 and the fact that Iraq did not have WMD.

It takes a while of using the internet to learn how it works and the fact that any random lunatic can start a blog.

My heuristic these days is that 80 % of mainstream opinion is true.

The real world is quite complex and the internet is wonderful for doing your own research.
Ask HN: How do you practice social soft skills in real life?
I currently read "how to make friends and influence people", this and many other soft-skills books/trainings offer concepts and ideas of how one should act in a business/social conversations.

I always struggle with applying those concepts in real life, I cannot stop and think about what is the most appropriate reaction for a situation and I quickly forget and get overwhelmed with concepts and ideas from the book.

How did you apply similar concepts in real-life scenarios, and what ideas worked best for you?

Saudi Arabia is also a totalitarian regime. It suppresses speech, executes citizens prejudicially and extrajudicially even outside their own borders, arrests and charges women's rights activists of treason, dozens of executions by beheading of non-violent drug offenders per year, human rights activists are arrested and imprisoned without trial, and so on.

Maybe we should just stop doing business with Saudi Arabia too, is that your point? No more Saudi Arabia oil for the U.S. or even all of the western world? In fact they're still treated as a U.S. ally.
I dont see why it couldnt work.

You could say that plaintiff has to pay for a crap lawyer for other side (there are complicated consequences, makes it harder for the little guy to access the legal system, etc). Or you could say the state has to provide one always (if the state pays for my doctor [i am not an american] than its in theory possible for them to do this.

Whether or not they should is a different question.
This seems like a personal choice, and perhaps you can try to keep an open mind.
