The "login link" makes sense, it would just require more upfront work/dev time from clients. I honestly don't know much about what people would be willing to put up with as Screenjar is super early-stage. I'm just excited that this exists as it's another option to explore when coming across these types of use cases.
Okay so sure BreadStapledToTrees contains images of bread stapled to trees. But why? I mean, why do people go around stapling bread to trees, photographing it and posting it on r/BreadStapledToTrees and enjoying it, and enjoying others posting the same? I am confused.
> The Crown also revealed that police had handed seized hard drives to FBI staff who copied them at the police crime lab in South Auckland and sent the copies back to the US. Justice Winkelmann ruled that the handing of hard drives seized by New Zealand police in the raid to the FBI was in breach of extradition legislation, and the FBI's removal from New Zealand of cloned data from them was unlawful.

Reddit app on Android is one of the worst apps that I've ever used.

1. It doesn't refresh content. A lot of times you need to manually swipe down to force it to refresh,and sometimes even kill the app to get it to refresh. Even if Reddit is using cheaper http 1.1 servers , they can use background data notifications to force the app to do an update.

2. Videos randomly switch to the lowest quality and stay there. I have a 300mbps fiber connection which can play YouTube and Netflix on 4k. But Reddit gives me 240p at best sometimes.

3. Worst messaging experience period. Not only is the chat pretty bare bones, it doesn't even have support for images or GIFs. So usually once I find someone to chat with on Reddit , I ask for their discord id.
That's because 'help' on most Linux-based systems is actually a shell builtin which explains other shell builtin commands. This, in turn, is related to the fact that Linux-based systems are flexible - you could use a totally different shell which does not even have the _help_ builtin - while VMS was a comprehensive single-sourced top-down controlled system. Both have their strengths and weaknesses, the fact that you are nearly certain to be using several Linux instances right at this moment gives some indication of which of these systems eventually turned out to be the strongest, warts and all.

Exactly - but they do it because "the other side" is trying to show protests as exclusively violent because it serves the narrative that "normal" and "peaceful" people don't have reasons to protest, only violent criminals. So it's a vicious cycle where objectivity is nowhere near the top of priorities, which is naive to expect even outside of it, given how mainstream media functions and is funded today.
I lost the domain of the email address a while back so I can’t even see it anymore... Will try to guess his email address to send a thank-you later today; better late than never even if very late?

One of those funny situations of “ah, yes, now with my own domain Gmail can never take my email away from me!” but then my payment failing and my domain going to auction before I notice.
> I know that whoever made the test, if it's a reasonably competent enterprise, made it with human capacities in mind.

Are you sure they weren't just constrained by technological limitations when they designed the paper test? Maybe the reason the digital test exists is that a competent enterprise wanted to adapt the paper technology to better fit human capacities?

I once tried to reproduce a webcam PPG paper, but not using Eulerian video magnification.

The pipeline started with face detection, then found the mean colour value of a rectangle of forehead. It then did some DSP and returned the pulse frequency.

It worked, but only when the person held extremely still very close to the camera, with auto exposure turned off.

Disappointed with how badly mine worked, I took a look at some open source webcam PPG projects to find out how they were working. It turns out they were pretty similar, except most of them were aggressively filtering the pulse signal to be in the correct range, without really checking there was already a signal there. Of course by taking white noise signal and filtering it to a certain frequency range, you'll get a signal in that frequency range.

I now believe that to make video PPG work, you need some of (1) a very good camera, i.e. not just a low end webcam (2) quite a long recording, i.e. 10s-1m (3) a controlled environment

I update my windows maybe once a year, or once every 2 years or so. I just got too tired of background network activity, and bad windows updates.

I also use my mobile hotspot due to my current living situation, so when gaming, network activity can be detrimental. Now I use simplewall by henry++ [0] to block all network activity (whitelist) - and my god it just works amazingly well. Can't recommend it enough. Easily blocks updates too, and even blocks edge, live.com, and linkedin, which I really don't care for!

SPARKS weren't just a few torrent seeders, they were more specifically the source of a major part of BluRay releases in the warez scene. They also don't release on P2P, but on topsites: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topsite_(warez)

In fact the scene despises P2P (or at least used to).

I agree with you though. It's an absolute waste of resources that could be spent on actually making the world a better place.
Randomised trial for parachutes? So yeah slightly more complex than "The only way..."
It depends on how you intend to use it. For example, in digital signal processing (audio), most processing is done using uint32 values. It would make no sense to receive the value as a float, only to convert it back to int before using it.

Case in point: most software volume controls allow to specify the output volume (or rather, control the attenuation) using the full uint16 range. In this case, the entire volume range is expressed from 0x0000 to 0xFFFF. But in practice, this is just an amplification (multiplier) value between 0 and 1.
slow clap Microsoft
Well it's written in about 1994 by the look of it. So, this is the point where I was learning Unix and it's after the point where a Finnish university student's "hobby project" is building one from scratch, a pretty good one it turns out.

It's also coming either after, or at the same time as books like "The Magic Garden Explained" which explains SVR4 in considerable detail.

You should read stuff like this as at least 90% sour grapes. Is there value from some of the criticisms along the way? Sure, but mostly they're just angry because the thing they liked is clearly going away.
> boxes, pallets, containers and vessels

Woo, that's a tough one. Even as a native speaker, I'd be hard-pressed to find one word in English that describes all these similar but different terms.

I looked up some of these in a dictionary for definitions and synonyms. OK, the word "holder" seems to be the most general term that includes all these types of objects.

So I'd name it "holder_events_table", with a column "holder_type" being box, pallet, etc.

This issue of finding precise naming is related to "ontologies", how to establish an organization of agreed-upon terms to classify objects in the world. I agree with you, it would be valuable if there was a community-developed reference where we could search for the most appropriate names of things.
I didn't enjoy this book, to be blunt. K&R still holds up as an interesting read, despite it not being updated to latest ANSI C standards. It is probably not a good first book.

* Deep C secrets.
* C: Traps and Pitfalls.
And now I don't use Twitter. I can't be the only one.
In a normal sized terminal the most useful part is pushed away by the list of built-in commands. IMO it should be printed last, so that it's guaranteed to be displayer to a user who doesn't know how to scroll up:

GNU bash, version 5.0.18(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
These shell commands are defined internally. Type `help' to see this list.
Type `help name' to find out more about the function `name'.
Use `info bash' to find out more about the shell in general.
Use `man -k' or `info' to find out more about commands not in this list
Pretty sure the user is wrong about what caused this dialog. It was the recent Firefox update.

Firefox 80 added being a PDF reader as a Windows-selectable preference, as seen in this dialog. Whenever a new app for a given filetype is added, Windows asks you which one you want to use.

While Edge getting a special category at the top is annoying, this showcases the uphill battle Microsoft faces, where they get blamed for the actions of other software and user stupidity on a regular basis, because people don't understand how Windows works, in general.
That's absolutely true. From the fact that there were so many equally ancient text commenting and interpreting the the original text (later also become canonical sources), it could be contradicting itself too. My views were basically formed via my background and what commonly understood in my upbringing.
That's a cosmetic difference.

The real difference is when you try to work out whether your binaries are (supposed to be) in /bin, /usr/local/bin, /sbin, etc, whether settings for a specific application and/or daemon are in $config or $.cfg or $.conf or $.cf or $d_config or .ssh and .bshrc in your personal directory, and where your web server and mail logs are.

Because they might be in /var/log - or equally they might not.

Unix was "designed" by hyperactive comedy racoons with ADHD. There's no reason - beyond lack of attention span and professionalism - why basic features and expectations couldn't have been standardised. But the Unix way is to get something sort of working without paying much attention to what other people are doing, lose interest in it, and move on.

Or to hammer away at something for decades adding more and more obscure edge case config options in a text file, all of which need to be set carefully because otherwise the application fails - probably silently, maybe leaving a log message somewhere completely unexpected - and most of which are irrelevant to 90% of users who just want Something That Works.
why do we bother with this junk when we have a very large fusion reaction that is located several million miles away from us & delivers it's energy to us in the form of photons every single day.
You're kind of making the article's point. What's the need for hundreds of books and tutorials if the system doesn't provide access to great documentation with just a "help" command?

Yuk! Domains suck in that regard.
I'm from Pennsylvania (US). I don't personally know anyone who has been hospitalized or died from Covid-19.

We are now remote, but the very beginning of this my work notified us that some people tested positive (you had to have the symptom at that time to get a test, so probably accurate), including someone from my building. No one was wearing masks at that time. Around this time, I caught something that felt like the flu. I never got tested, so I have no idea what I had. I had a friend who had a similar experience and thinks it was Covid-19.

Some of the restrictions in my state made sense, but some where an overreaction. Most of the overbearing restrictions have been lifted. The legislature here has passed a resolution to end the state of emergency and the accompanying restrictions that the governor is supposed to follow. The governor hasn't followed the law and will draw this out in court. The court and many other government systems are a mess right now because they were closed for, I think, a couple months. Now theh have to catch up.
Ask HN: Why don't podcasts have comments?
Why don't podcast players and podcast ecosystem in general have comments? I listen to a podcast, and want to engage with people who listened to it and ask questions to authors. Why don't we have it?
Yes, I feel like this over-ambition and risk has put me in a similar position. I still own around 300k worth of stock which is not liquid in one of the start-ups but it has been 8 years now. On the other hand I realize that with my background I would never be able to even get a job at FAANG in a first place so I really cherish the experience I got in one of the startups like opening the offices in different countries, travelling and getting clients (I am in tech sales). However looking back, I partially regret the decision to always strive for the outsized return as an employee you get 1 bet for 4 years of vesting, instead of many bets that VCs have. I recently landed a job in a more boring place and increased my income by around 120%, living the boring tortoise life with more politics, but I realised I stopped worrying about the future and really enjoy spending my free time on staying sane. In the end though, I always say that if I would have stayed in my own country and lived the super boring life, I would regret it in the end and so far it has been an exciting ride.
If you aren't leaning on the English Language at large, then you should ask the community of people who will use your software. Who are your stakeholders?

If you don't have a relationship with your stakeholders because your company has paid lots of money to become Agile[1][2], then you are indeed in trouble.

BSNL's downfall has nothing to do with Jio's aggressive policies which violated the law but the law was twisted so that Jio can carry on.

BSNL was systematically destroyed by Modi govt to favour Jio.

If BSNL was mismanaged for years then why did it collapse only when Govt moved all official contracts to Jio rather than BSNL?

WHY is Modi govt not giving money to BSNL? almost all Pune office of BSNL has taken voluntery retirement. All of them went away in poof one week they filled people by hiring daily contractors

If you don't believe that BSNL was systematically destroyed then I have a bridge to sell you.

Maybe don't go easy on being ignorant on facts. Maybe read news.

My go-to is fwnop (https://www.cipherdyne.org/fwknop/) which is actually similar to the OP’s thing but battle tested. Only downside is it’s not available on iOS, so recently I setup WireGuard for my iPad.

Being able to build boxes that are bigger on the inside than on the outside would also be very valuable - like a standard 40ft shipping container that fits in your pocket.

And that's very close to the kind of thing we're talking about here.
And, more importantly perhaps, for most legal systems, interpretation of things not explicitly enumerated is pretty unclear. It's a little bit like "undefined behavior" in a C compiler, only half jokingly allowed to do anything up to and including rm-rf'ing the machine you're running it on.
Am I crazy when I say I don't see these popups on the mobile web version of reddit anymore? I don't see what the fuss is about. It's pretty much the same as what the gif in TFA is showing, except no blinking 'use app'/'open in reddit app' buttons. No 'open in reddit app/continue with mobile site' popup -unless- I end up on the AMP version of the reddit (by following a link from Google search). And even then once I do anything on the AMP page (click on a reply, navigate to the main page) I get redirected away to the normal web version, which is less cancerous.

Someone please back me up or refute me.

Also I am logged in to the site, might make a difference.
That's also an 'if we clean it up'. Nuclear waste decays, and there is not a lot you can do about that.

If reactors, or the placement of them, are designed to be left in-situ after decommissioning, then the cost becomes a lot less. Moving spent fuel from one site to another makes little sense when the original site has already been designated nuclear.

As others have said, this kind of number is always pitched at nuclear, and not hydro, or coal, or any other form of power.

I think Twitter can be used for it. Also podcasts use RSS for distribution so whatever comment system is going to be centralized to some service and everyone has to decide to use it.

How can anyone believe what you're saying? We can all look around and see for ourselves with our own eyes that Google's monopoly is harming us.
Why should anyone believe Google more than their own eyes?

Even if our eyes were deceiving us, doesn't it say something about Google that we have become so distrusting of it?
So if a company earns the trust of their users (and grows very big and successful as a result), they get to claim full credit for it, but if they lose that trust, they're not responsible?

I'd trust the gut feelings of the majority of people rather than the opinions of a handful of experts... What's worse about this case is that there are no experts coming out in defense of Google; they do have financial incentives; so I suspect that they simply have no material to work with!

They cannot show proof to defend the fairness of Google's ranking algorithm because they know that any insight into how it works would conclusively prove that it's not fair. That's why Google is keeping the algorithm a secret.
Indeed, Windows may not be perfect but most of issues reported by users seem to be caused by lack of knowledge or experience or some misbehaving third party app.

Every job I had where we used Windows 10 we had no issues and when there were issues, it was always caused by faulty hardware, crappy corporate bloatware or some misbehaving or poorly configured third party app.

I know it's fashionable on HN to hate microsoft and windows because of the "muh embrace, extend, extinguish and
candy crush" meme, but objectively they make a solid OS for consumers (optimus graphics switching works flawlessly on our laptops) and developers (WSL) considering the vast hardware combinations it has to run on.

Maybe, although I doubt it. It would mean that they put in extra research to, for example, plot an ROC curve and see what the optimal threshold for the test would be.

Even if that was the case, you can still frame the question in terms of cost/benefits. The electronic test is, let's say, 10 times more expensive than a basic one. Is it more reliable than taking 10 basic tests (maybe at different times) and averaging the results? Probably not.
