> stims [...] provide even more impulsive tendencies

In people who suffer from ADHD, stimulants actually have the opposite effect, and are prescribed specifically to reduce the disregulation of executive function.
And this is still only scratching the surface. For more file related horror:

First of all, you can do that already. No one stops you. So I guess what you actually want is someone to fix the problems that come with your wishes, but do not agree with the way the distributions try to do so. You know what? Thet really don't owe you anything. Go ahead, build the system you want. But please don't come along whining when it ends up unmaintainable, instable, or starts acting against you, like, you know, Windows does.

Second, linux distribution maintainers are usually much better informed about the technical details of installing software in a stable manner than any software vendor. Sure you can get your software from the vendor. But then you should be willing to accept that it is often broken, inefficient, and insecure. Software vendors have no interest whatsoever in installing their software in a professional and sustainable way on your system, package maintainers do.
Would you have the same problem working with non native English speaker immigrant programmers in the US? They’ve spoken English for decades but not native speakers.

Do you considered that a justified attack on him?

All this stuff does not solve the simple problem of moving the people to the rails to begin with.

Living in Germany, i can get onto an ICE and tear through the country at 280 km/h at any time (usually with huge delays though).

But often people still don't, for a few reasons which will be true for any technology, replacing the standard trains.

One reason is, that transportation is always a door to door problem and if the transport from and to the train stations sucks, the whole system will not be used.

Who wants to deal with changeovers from buses to trains all the time, if those have horrible working hours, constant delays or long waiting times?

The whole public transport system must be comprehensive, always available, reliable and fast. Being partially fast solves nothing.
Distributed computing of today is like the dial up of computer networking, or worse. We're doomed to repeat those mistakes if we don't know the history.
Many phishing pages reside on compromised domains. Bob's Plumbing Supplies might wonder why their Wordpress site loaded with plug-ins has stopped working, ask someone to take a look, and see your IP address all over the logs.
FWIW Slack seems to work fine in surf for me. Are you sure you have an up-to-date WebKitGTK on your system? Those kinds of issues are typically fixed there, and not in surf itself. As long as the WebKit API stays backwards-compatible, there's probably not much need for surf to change (other than for new features).

There's zsurf based on QtWebEngine/Chromium too, FWIW: https://github.com/SteveDeFacto/zsurf
There are many many shallow forks of Firefox, Chromium or Webkit out there. Some prominent examples are SeaMonkey, Pale Moon, Basilisk, QuteBrowser, Falkon, Gnome Web, IceCat, Ungoogled-Chromium.

They're all superficial forks though. Without progress on the core engine etc upstream, they won't be able to keep up for long. On the other hand, there is little reason to think any of the three major engine efforts (Gecko, Webkit, Blink) are going to stumble any time soon.
Replacing the underlying C/C++ code (including the kernel) is a work in progress. Not everything happens all at once.

I'm not talking about this project in particular. More about what will happen to the general C ecosystem.
F# is supported so at least there is some .net support.
Not an expert, but if you want a stable Rust-to-non-rust ABI, you can use the C ABI as the article mentions. If you want a stable rust-to-rust ABI for FFI there's a crate for that
https://crates.io/crates/abi_stable

It seems somewhat unrealistic to expect a really new language commit across the board to the same sort of ABI stablility as a decades-old language such as C.
Two questions:

- Why have you chosen TCP instead of UDP as the transport protocol?

- Why should I use inlets instead of, let's say, WireGuard?
I'd expect a technical audience to be already aware that any such efforts can only ever be incremental -- so your elaboration would be redundant.
This is definitely true. The primary remaining issue I think is "perceived stability". The apps feel very finnicky, and oftentimes things work in unexpected and unexplained ways (especially around E2E encryption!) and it makes it pretty hard to onboard friends.

Do you run UI/UX tests on these flows? Also under non-ideal conditions and potential semi-broken states? I'd love to see Element become a more stable application--it's definitely more important to convincing friends to use it than an extensive feature set.
Government contracts makes a lot of sense. International travel being messier during a pandemic, especially flying into the US might be something people are unwilling to do, but pre pandemic it’s just slightly longer line with CBP, not really a material obstacle.
> if Rust can fulfils it’s primary objective to write Firefox in Rust

This was what Mozilla hoped to do with it. But the teams at Google, Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft, Dropbox, Cloudlfare, fastly and others using Rust have different objectives. At this point, Firefox's success and Rust's success are decoupled.
Just another garbage article with pure guess work based on zero facts. The reason for low internet penetration is simply due to expensive wifi / data rates. There are few players to drive down the internet cost.
This looks really interesting to gain some basic and intermediate knowledge in this field, thanks a lot.
This is true, and the same is true of other stimulants in ADHD sufferers. For example, it ticks a box in ADHD diagnosis if a patient reports having had a paradoxical reaction to cocaine (drowsiness, focus, a feeling of quietness), because although the pharmacology is, to say the least, not as precise when compared to e.g. lisdexamfetamine, the impact is the same: both block the reuptake of dopamine in the brain.
Mozilla's announcement said, that the COVID-19 situation was responsible for them to restructure the company.

Can someone tell me how COVID situation explicitly affected Mozilla's revenue to such an extant? If anything, Internet companies were the least affected or in fact has been benefited from COVID situation.

Did the donors stop funding Mozilla or are they just using COVID-19 as as a scapegoat?
Do you also object to the term "pure Python" because the Python interpreter is written in C? Or "pure JavaScript" because there's a whole browser underneath?
How can you disable direct styles manipulation? I’ve looked for that feature and never found it (although in response I just gave up on Wod as a serious tool for anything beyond short letters)
Well, I wouldn't call it a "method"; it's just a combination of a fault tree with an event tree diagram for a given hazard; both of which are the result of a corresponding analysis. Bow-tie diagrams appear a lot in Eurocontrol documents and standards since twenty years (e.g. in their safety assessment method); also the FAA seems to use them.
This makes no sense. Its free product, that doesn't mean it gets made for free. And same holds true for any other browser or any other open source project.
Couldn't read the whole thing behind the paywall.

I stoped 2 webshops which basically sell expensive stuff 20% off by wire transfer (bank transfer?!) which then never send the goods of course!

I did the following:

- I found out where it was hosted and send them an email explaining them why and how that shop is a scam

- I found out where they hosted the domain and wrote the registrar an abuse email

- I wrote an email to the banks where the bank accounts where active

The scammer had a webchat module active and he/she did wrote back to me, nothing came out through that, nonetheless:

next day, both webshops were gone due to being taken offline from the hosters.

I do believe, that they do have a chance because literaly no one cares. I have seen mentioning of one of those two shops older then 6 month. I pissed at them with very little effort in a very short time.

I do hope i helped out.

Just curious, what do you think the actual reason is?
It might simply be the time to invent a more modern ABI.

If for some reason modern languages insist on monomorphization, we should be able to design an ABI that suits that need.

Rough sketch:

A modern shared library is code that generates code (very much like a dynamic linker is actually code that links code).

The interface of the library would consist of:

a) a description language for the shape of data types (not types themselves, mind you)

b) a list of generators for functions

c) a list of function applied to shapes as a requirement

The job of the modern dynamic linker would then be to invoke all the functions to the necessary shapes, put the resulting code into memory and link it. It might be useful to support this with some kind of caching mechanism.
No, I mean applications to the Apple developer program.
This would make it impossible to achieve the most basic level of security.
> That's not accurate.

Fwiw, I recorded at least four different times a Rust release broke timely / differential dataflow, and have seen a few others in other folks' code. Afaict, none of them were soundness related, and were instead due to ergonomic additions and performance improvements.

They haven't been recent (e.g. were 1.17, 1.20, and 1.22, and the others earlier) and I agree that things are much more stable now.

Agreed. Seems very likely to perpetuate the myth of ADHD sufferers as being gifted with neurological superpowers when actually the "ADHD-like" symptoms they describe are debilitating for many.

Yes. I'd imagined something along the lines of "c'mon, c'mon, party!"

(I'm pretty confident about it though, because pop music tends to gravitate to a certain vocabulary.

A quasi-fix could be to control for the most obvious sources of vitamin D: how often do you go outside, how long do you go outside, do you take vitamin D supplements, how often and with which strength. You can do this kind of analysis alongside any type of study, don't need full coverage and get some preliminary results. All you need is a Bayesian on your team (: partially in jest) or the willingness to open up your data after you publish.

In my opinion as someone who practices non-medical statistics the trope of correlation vs. causation and interventional vs. observational are somewhat overblown. Andrew Gelman posted somewhat snarky about MDs and statistics recently [1]. I see that this post is in (very) good faith, but it does have the MD-bias to statistics in it.

Ask HN: Has anyone migrated off containerized infrastructure?
I'm constantly aggravated by various quirks of containers, and don't really remember any big problems with non-containerized infra.

A random and non-exhausting list of things that bother me from time to time:

— Must build an image before deploying and it takes time, so deploys are slow (of course we use CI to do it, it's not manual).

— If I need quick hot fix RIGHT NOW, I can't just log in, change couple of lines and restart, must go through full deploy cycle.

— Must remember that launched containers do not close when ssh breaks connection and they can easily linger for a couple of weeks.

I generally find it harder to change how things work together. It's probably possible to spend lots of effort to fix these things, but I don't remember having to do all this cruft with old school infrastructure.

Hence the question - has anyone migrated off containerized infrastructure? Are you satisfied? Or I'm misremembering things and horrible things wait for me in the old-school ways?

Pocket vs. Evernote: Know Which Suits You Best
This happened to me in the car when adding a new kind of windshield wiper fluid over the old one. It did not clog the pipes, but made the resulting fluid very slimy, and it could not be wiped out by the wiper blades. The result was that the windshield became translucent and very hard to see through. When it stayed longer on the windshield, it frosted like ice, making it even harder to see through. I had to stop at a service station and drain all that fluid out, then fill the washer fluid tank with water to clean everything.

The new fluid by itself was fine, it was just the combination of the two that created a reaction.
It's a method, a method of thinking, which connects event tree and fault tree. A powerful way of working with hazards and risks.

We certainly use this all the time.
So you DDOSed their backend but they could've whitelist their IP range and blacklist all the others for incoming requests.

1. One SMS every 90 days, because the security teams have no idea how MFA works (I know, I work there). Even if you hop devices. See https://try.popho.be/psd2.html

2. It's just a little dev step away: http://blog.cmpxchg8b.com/2020/07/you-dont-need-sms-2fa.html . Phish kits will evolve, UX will still be bad, and phishing will still happen.

I think the concerns are more towards the ecosystem and community, which are very curiosity-driven. I tried Rust about one year ago and nothing would compile without the nightly toolchain. After reading the Rust book there was this realization that I now have to go and read all the new language proposals, because everybody is using them already. This and the excessive use of metaprogramming by some users drove me away from the language.
Monkeys do the same thing:

Many non-human animals show exploratory behaviors. It remains unclear whether any possess human-like curiosity. We previously proposed three criteria for applying the term curiosity to animal behavior: (1) the subject is willing to sacrifice reward to obtain information, (2) the information provides no immediate instrumental or strategic benefit, and (3) the amount the subject is willing to pay depends systematically on the amount of information available. In previous work on information-seeking in animals, information generally predicts upcoming rewards, and animals’ decisions may therefore be a byproduct of reinforcement processes. Here we get around this potential confound by taking advantage of macaques’ ability to reason counterfactually (that is, about outcomes that could have occurred had the subject chosen differently). Specifically, macaques sacrificed fluid reward to obtain information about counterfactual outcomes. Moreover, their willingness to pay scaled with the information (Shannon entropy) offered by the counterfactual option. These results demonstrate the existence of human-like curiosity in non-human primates according to our criteria, which circumvent several confounds associated with less stringent criteria.

> My question is, if change tracking is so important, why use Word instead of any of the dozens of workflows where change tracking is a first class citizen?

The simple answer is, and always will be, that it is what your editor uses.

I would prefer to use LaTeX for most of my published works. It allows me to be more precise in layouts, and do things that are just downright convoluted in Word.

But if the editor uses Word, then you don't have a choice. You're not changing the publishing house.
What are the various benefits of visiting dental clinics?
Visiting a dental clinic will help you to deal with many dental issues, get full oral checkups, figure out disease etc. The treatments might include, dental implants, dentures, dental crowns, invisalign, braces and much more. It is essential to visit the dental clinic from time to time for regular checkups.

> it's against C

More specifically, I hope, C++. I like to think of asm, C, and Rust as a trio. C isn't "better" than asm; it just doesn't make sense to use asm when C does the job. And it doesn't make sense to use C when Rust does the job.

C++ is where, in almost all scenarios, I draw the line and say, this would be probably be better if new code is written in Rust.

Reminds me of this part in Derek's new book on music promotion, on how the very same thing can be perceived very differently based on context.

"Imagine you see a caged feather on a museum wall. The sign underneath says the artist is a political activist in jail.

Imagine that same caged feather again. But instead the sign says the artist is a high school kid in Florida.

Or imagine that the only way to see it is to crawl deep into a shrinking tunnel that opens into a room of mirrors, where the caged feather is suspended by a thread.

Same feather. Very different perceptions."
One thing I'm curious is what's the source of energy behind all this. NSA failed to stop many important accidents (9/11, covid) .. Is it a survival bias and they're still keeping people safe without saying it or is it some finance/intelligence blackhole spinning due to some political quicksand ?
