Neuroscience has collected enough evidence to argue we crave social connectivity from the start, as our birth and early nurturing itself puts the habit into our daily working memory.

Given that, it could be a gap from family to 20s single life may cause a shock to the system to be better understood.

Is there such a thing as too harsh an emotional break to self reliance and does it have an epigenetic or other measurable response?

And consider elites almost always have a big family watching their back, so to speak. Often nurturing and supportive in ways the hip youth find stifling and cowardly.
Imagine you lived there and your google account gets banned by some overzealous ML model. Do you just get locked out of your house?

No.
If you open the page on internet providers in your area, it appears that "home" internet providers are cable, fiber, and dsl. Cellular providers are in a separate category.

That doesn't prove for certain what their methodology was for the main page, but it's sufficient for NDizzle to reasonably assume they are not counting cellular as "home".
Hello.

I'm not a QEMU developer. I used to be pretty active in Apache HTTPD, APR and related projects. They are large user space code bases written in C - with, overall, a relatively OK security record.

I think Apache should be on a path to be rewritten in Rust. Here's why...

Every new line of C has a chance of a remotely exploitable vulnerability. No matter the precautions taken, no matter the developer who writes it. HTTPD has a long history, precautions like memory pools from APR and uses "safe" string functions, but it still has issues.

Apache's core C code doesn't change much, so yes, many remotely exploitable memory corruption bugs have been fixed over 20+ years, but new code, new code still has bugs. And they can be bad.

Look at the recent known vulnerabilities in httpd:
https://httpd.apache.org/security/vulnerabilities_24.html

Vulns that are largely fixed by Rust are concentrated areas like HTTP/2 support and the Proxy - areas under active development. Vulns around logical errors are still there, and more widespread, but largely have a lower impact.

So, I emphasize with QEMU developers. I'm in the same boat. I have a full time job, and that job is not to work on Apache HTTPD. It would take a full time job to incrementally adopt Rust. The outcome would be in 24+ months, no more remote memory corruption bugs. Is it worth it to fund this? Can you put a price tag on this for the dozens of "core infrastructure" software projects written in C?

How about consumer protections?

"Driver protections" are the reason we have Uber and Lyft to begin with. Cab companies were very well regulated and paid. But the service sucked. I was hung out to dry in areas of San Francisco in 2009 - where cabs would simply not come because it was inconvenient for them.
Thanks. With "widely-used/public" I was hoping for something open source that runs on many people's machines (like a web browser) or at least on many company's servers (like qemu) as opposed to running on a single company's servers in a controlled and uniform environment.
Anecdote, but at my work there's two teams whose libraries we use that use Storybook for documentation and it is decidedly worse than other teams that create non-Storybook documentation.

I don't know if this is a doc writing problem or a product problem with how Storybook works (is it even supposed to be a documentation product? I don't know), but so far my experience has been a 0 for 2 with Storybook-based documentation being significantly worse than normal.
Thanks, sorry, I should have noted that anyway just for linking UD.

Different vaccines will have different efficacy. None will be perfect.
Or maybe people should read the post instead of reading too much into the title?
Forget the last paragraph. Literally opened answering your question:

> My KVM Forum 2018 presentation titled Security in QEMU: How Virtual Machines provide Isolation (pdf) (video) reviewed security bugs in QEMU and found the most common causes were C programming bugs. This includes buffer overflows, use-after-free, uninitialized memory, and more. In this post I will argue for using Rust as a safer language that prevents these classes of bugs.

Economic sanctions will severely hurt individual Belarusians, who are the ultimate consumers of those trade products. It is hard to imagine sanctions improving the quality of life and ability of protestors to communicate with the outside world.

Separately, I would expect American sanctions to push the country towards increased trade with Russia and China -- who are both allies of Lukashenko.
this is great news! Insects population decline would mean almost immediate catastrophic consequences.
Civil Rights X Tech: Things to Know
As one of my directs pointed out, it also reduces the "blast radius" for any mistakes around metrics. If I mess up and send orders of magnitude too many metrics to Prometheus, the worst case is that I'll lose my own metrics since it's only my own instance. The pull nature of Prometheus also helps here. But with something like Graphite, I can accidentally overload the StatsD relays and ruin everyone's metrics, which is bad.
Uber Eats has a number of competitors for food delivery services in CA.

And since UberEats's drivers already tend to work for their competitors as well, the effect of Uber pulling out of the market probably wouldn't even be noticeable.
As a young person, I don't want the virus to "burn through" me and my friends.
I would bet they had a standard construction form (2 meter tall Sonotube, etc) and they simply dug down until they reached the rock and poured the concrete. Like you say, they height doesn't matter since it will be referenced from some other datum.
Well, so for electrical work I know that Northern Grid will do any reasonable upgrades for your network for free, just because that's part of what they exist to do. I asked for an upgrade to 100amp connection to my house, they did a survey and answered that they would need to dig out the whole cable from my house to the street and replace it with a new one. "Of course" - they said - "we would put everything back at is was once we're done". Cost? Absolutely free. Well, funded by the taxpayer I guess. I don't see why openreach shouldn't be the same - if your house isn't on the fibre network, they should connect you as that's literally their mission statement. I guess for really complicated cases the cost could be shared or something, but quoting people 50k for connecting a domestic property to fibre shouldn't be acceptable.
Inventing the car hurt horse breeders and kicked off global climate change, I don’t think people would argue that their life would be better without the invention of the vehicle.
Live Stream: DevOps Workflows Simplified with Chuka Ofili, Google Dev Expert
Yeah, lockdowns could probably have been avoided in most of the world if decent surgical masks had been shipped to each citizen, and they complied with wearing them.
As someone who lives in Toronto, I'm disappointed we couldn't even have this as an experiment with smart city technologies. "It's time to build" and all that.
I think this is why Rayiner said the blueprint was "free markets, rule of law, liberal democracy", not "free markets" by themselves.
For any service -- say EC2:

- launch instance A
- create a new CAT and activate it in the Billing console
- apply CAT to instance A
- get no cost data back for that instance in Cost Explorer filtering on that CAT
- terminate instance A
- launch instance B
- apply CAT to instance B
- get cost data back for that instance in Cost Explorer filtering on that CAT

It was explained to me by AWS support that this is in fact how it works, after I opened a case into why I wasn't getting full data back for some legacy stuff. So for any new account I would say that your tagging scheme should get built first, before infrastructure or anything else.

From the folks at Magic Leap. It looks remarkably good to me.

The video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NOPcOGV6nU&feature=youtu.be is worth watching, especially the parts showing how the model gradually constructs and improves a labeled 3D mesh of a live room as it is fed more visual data by walking around the room.

Great suggestion on learning SQL. Also, learn how to normalize, at least to 3rd normal form. Clean data, enforced in the DB with constraints, makes debugging easier.

Consider getting a used Jeep in stock form, and get the shop manual. Methodically go through all of the maintenance items. Then start some easy mods, like a block heater. Good life skills.
I suspect the poll answers would be different if they presented more nuanced options than the three choices in the pie chart.
Then shouldn't you also be applauding the CEO for his decision? I hate to present this kind of gotcha, but I'm honestly confused on how to reconcile "Uber shouldn't exist in California" and "Uber shouldn't announce it's shutting down in California".
Tinder is still there for the "discovery" of the people to add on Instagram, that is not going to change. Tinder doesn't make any extra money after people match, whether they continue to chat in or out of the app. Once connections are made and the users move out of the app, they still come back to Tinder for more discovery.
It's definitely tricky--on my site I display images capped to the reading pane, but they are also links to a full-res version of the image that it too big to justify forcing the browser to load.

Dangerously simplistic viewpoint assuming laws are good and the outcomes of those laws are fair. I'm sure if there was a law personally affecting you negatively you wouldn't feel the same way.
I'll take a mostly democratic world over an openly despotic one a la the CCP.

Don’t they mostly depend on Putin money? Here in Europe we’ve had sanctions and been working for change for quite a while.

Doesn’t matter much when their dictator is backed by Russia.

Everyone has right to choose one thing between career & family.

Society should not control each person on this choice.

Couldn't pick a less impactful time to shut down if they tried. I'm personally not using Uber right now because I have nowhere to go; I literally won't miss them.

The requirements for contractors are (known as the ABC test)[0][1]:

1) Part A of the test requires that the worker is free from the control and direction of the hiring entity in connection with the performance of the work, both under the contract for the performance of the work and in fact; and

2) Part B of the test requires that the worker performs work that is outside the usual course of the hiring entity’s business; and

3) Part C of the test requires that the worker is customarily engaged in an independently established trade, occupation, or business of the same nature as the work performed.

4) The contractor must actually be in business for themselves.

Sorry, upvoted.
Thank you! ListMonk looks great but I'm not sure what their future plans are so it would be hard to do a fair comparison. For DropList, the plan is to move towards email automation using drip campaigns.
Aren't they deciding what fare to charge by accepting the job?

If I offer someone $10 to mow my lawn and that's the only price I'm willing to pay, are they now an employee because they can't decide what fare to charge? Do I now owe the kid down the street and all of her friends a 401k if they rotate through who mows my lawn for that price?

I guess I'm not following here.
This is a good example of a JavaScript-phobic treatment of webdev to no ends other than the abuse of HTML tags. There is a use case for JavaScript, and this is it.

Certainly true for mosquitoes in the Northeast. Despite me improving drainage on the property, there seems to be at least a dozen of them hovering near my legs as soon as I go outside.

Storybook as an official documentation tool is a fairly new idea. They added Storybook Docs pretty recently, which is basically stories that can be written in MDX. It also enables you to document a component's props among other things. IMO, Storybook Docs is on the right path and will become a great documentation tool.

But just using straight up Storybook as documentation, I agree that isn't very good. Whenever I'm just given a random Storybook, my success with that library has been pretty low.
I find it odd that for the solution proposed for solving problems with C that are explicitly solved by C++ is not to move the code-base to C++ but to an incompatible language, like Rust. Nothing against Rust, but sounds more like someone who wants to work on Rust.
Looks like a neat device.

I watched the ad for it, and the thing that stood out to me was I think the "cast" was entirely female. I wonder if that was intentional?

Is there any reason this would be marketed at women specifically?
I thought this was the proof of concept? No one lives there now, no one would be forced to move there.
If I read the 990 right, 257500. This is 2x the lowest officer salary and 30% higher than the second-highest. By comparison Mitchell is 8x the second-highest officer and 17x the lowest. There may be more comparable salaries at MoCo, but those are not on the 990s.
The project goals of Firecracker - lightweight VMs (literally "microvm" in the name) with the bare minimum device emulation - are definitely removed from QEMU at large.

There may be some overlap, but just "contributing to Firecracker" ignores the goals of these projects.
Yes we see that trend as well. For messaging existing customer its super nice to have messaging and analytics in one place. One common example is you wanna send deals or coupons for people that meet some threshold.

Some analytic features we have on the near term roadmap are features like log rocket where you can get better insight on what the user is doing at the moment. The vision is definitely to become a centralized location for messaging and marketing data. We're still trying to figure out the balance and how much we wanna focus on analytics.
Debugging engineering velocity and leading high performing teams
>our lead was happy to raise the valuation so we could take more money and increase our odds of success.

VC is such a strange world.

"Valuation" is a measure of the fair-value of an asset. How can a lead investor decide "to raise the valuation"? Why would anyone looking to invest base the valuation on people who already have money in, rather than their own due diligence? Why wouldn't the optimal valuation be as high as possible?

This game is kind of confusing.
Obviously, being a skilled sonarman would seem require a good physical sense of hearing (frequency range, etc.), but as as the article mentions, the ability to recognize patterns is also important.

Have there been any studies or analyses to see if there's also a correlation between skill at, say, music (relative pitch, etc.) or language (detecting subtle differences in accents, etc.) and sonar skill?
The funny thing that in the us it's easier to raise money and get permits to develop electric and autonomous cars and to start a space exploration business than to develop a business in cheap, fast and reliable internet connections.
I used to use a service called car2go in previous cities I lived in. It was extremely convenient and approximately as expensive as Uber. Car2go dealt with all of vehicle asset, maintenance, gas, insurance, parking.

IMO paying someone to drive you around is just inefficient when you can easily do it yourself (though lack the vehicle). This is the wall that uber is running up against and is now trying to skirt regulation in order to cut costs.
Isn’t that democracy working as intended? If the law is there and they can’t operate within it, shutting down is the legal thing to do.
Wrong thread, fyi.
One of the better ideas to handle "internet as a utility" is actually not to scrap private ISPs, but to give government a monopoly over the physical infrastructure in the "Last Mile" (i.e. fiber from central hub to business/home).

ISPs lease the Last Mile at near cost (to pay for physical maintenance/improvements) and then are responsible for peerage agreements, subscriber management, network equipment, data budgets, plans, customer service, and other services (e.g. VoIP, TV over IP, etc).

Nobody benefits from ten+ different fiber runs from data center to home or business, it is inefficient. So you have to consolidate it and then lease it, that way granting an actual competitive landscape where consumers would get many choices for their ISP (and their ISP is responsible for mediating with the government about physical issues/faults).

Other countries have done this successfully. It also keeps government from being responsible for actually providing internet services, which could have civil rights problems (or politicians trying to decide winners/losers, etc).
This is actually an interesting argument. Because there are people who perpetually fear irrational things, we have to weigh that fear differently or discount it all together since post-enlightenment modern humans can’t agree that there is any irrational act.
Not sure why this was downvoted - it almost certainly is heavily automated already, and the article hints at it. Tom Clancy described a primitive version in The Hunt For Red October in the 80s. You'd expect the Navy to be very interested.

I'm probably near your age. We also had typing classes. I took them in elementary school and junior high. There were classes offered in high school but after years of Runescape I didn't need to take a typing class anymore.

I wonder what it's like for kids today and if typing skills will even be useful in their future.
I was very excited for it, but it is way too expensive (sensible, given the experimental nature) and seems like US only (nonsensical)... Did the first iPhone or Pixel launch in US only?

> The unemployment levels alone are overwhelming evidence that isn’t true

However, a lot of those unemployed service workers were making more money on unemployment than they did in their previous jobs. Add in the $1200 check and that certainly helped in that April-July period.

Yes, for sure. Introvert here. Loved it. I guess that means I could have had a successful career in lighthouse keeping in a former age.
Tutor the AI: a GPT-3 project
I'm sure there's part of that, and there's nothing wrong with that. This is a bad law. The other part are the logistics of creating a set of new policies, and systems to adhere to this law - which takes time.
Eh, I am underwhelmed. Android based device that appears to be overpriced based on available stats ( starting $1399 ). I am not certain if MS learned anything from Windows Mobile flop ( or learned the wrong lesson ).

Then again, I am not its target demographic. MS Surface line never entered my consideration.

This is a law with numerous carvouts (ie, pretty garbage in first place) and HIGHLY selective enforcement.

The discussion is no longer logical. You can't say here is the law - here are facts - here is result. Now it's here is law (with lots of totally random elements and exceptions that are confusing for everyone involved if you actually try and comply with it - I've had folks says they promise they are independent businesses, and they look and act like it, but the law says things like if they don't have all the business licenses setup they are not, and some cities like SF require that if you do work for a company that has business in SF that work can be considered happening in SF and so you need to get licensed there etc etc).

I used to be a stickler for trying to get folks to comply with AB5 - but I'd guess we are at 70% noncomplaince still against letter of law - and it's not worth fighting employers AND contractors to get everyone to switch when they don't want to.

One workaround I've been recently is to hire out of state or look at offshoring - freelance writers are a good example where I don't think there is a way to really hire them legally in CA, but you can still hire them outside of state as I understand it. The mechanics of turning all authors into W2 employees is such a big leap, but most authors don't have all the right business licenses setup in every city they might have work appear.
It should be noted that Macron's parents are both medical doctors, one a professor (i.e. highly educated), studied at one of France's top high school and then top university, and won a French literature national prize when in high school.

He's actually similar to Boris Johnson, who studied Classics at Oxford and likes to drop literary terms and quotations.

That being said "c'est pas bibi" et "fada", mentioned in the article, are slang (for the former) and dialectal (for the latter) terms that are ubiquitously known and certainly not 'upper class' or obscure, same for "poudre de perlimpimpin". "Pognon de dingue" is even vulgar, but something anyone could say in an informal setting. I would not call any of these "macronism".
Show HN: dbhi/qus: QEMU-user-static and Docker, new website
qemu-user-static (qus) is a compilation of utilities, examples and references to build and execute OCI images (aka Docker images) for foreign architectures, using QEMU’s user-mode emulation.

Ready-to-use docker images are provided for each of seven host architectures officially supported by Docker, Inc. or built by official images: amd64, i386, arm64v8, arm32v7, arm32v6, s390x and ppc64le.

Multiple minimal working setups to build and execute arm64v8 containers on amd64 are configured and tested on Continuous Integration (CI) services (GitHub Actions and Travis CI). The full flow is public, for other users to learn and adapt these resources to their needs. See github.com/dbhi/qus/actions and/or travis-ci.com/dbhi/qus/builds.

For instance, qus has been reported to work for running x86 applications on Raspberry Pi.

Now, the docs (which were written in plain markdown) have been updated to rmarkdown (distill). This hopefully makes them easier to read.
