When I was a kid, my father used to raise octopi in our basement in NYC as a hobby. He had about six 55-gallon tanks arranged in two rows.

Every day, he'd come home from work, throw his hat and tie on the coatrack, and immediately head to the basement to play with them. If you didn't play with them, they'd die of boredom, he said.

Their favorite game was "jar." He's put empty Gerber and Ball jars in the tanks, with lids, and they'd swim in and out and in and out of the open jars. Eventually, they'd learn to open the closed jars. And then they'd spend hours swimming inside the jars, and closing the lids behind them, and trying different sized lids to see which ones worked on which jars. It was all very fulfilling to my father.

I don't know what happened to the octopi when they got mature. My guess is that he sold them to pet stores or restaurants or something.
I'm there with you (1500+ in one browser instance). But I don't consider it a problem. I have tab suspend and full text tab search via add-ons, I group my tabs linearly by topic and date, and the older 1/3 of tabs I know position by heart. Because I use a single process browser+noscript instead of a "modern" JS-engine-centric browser (ie, Chrome/FF) even with 600 tabs of 1500 loaded in my ram usage is still under 3 GB.

Minimalism and other philosophies don't really translate over into digital spaces. I have as much "space" as I want and nothing gets in the way of anything else. I see no problems with my status quo since 2003.

I have saved my session files every couple weeks ever since Opera introduced tabs and sessions in version 5 back in the early 2000s. With these I made some plots back in 2017: http://superkuh.com/number-of-tabs-vs-date-2017.png and http://superkuh.com/number-of-tabs-vs-date-2003.png

Riding into the Sunset: How to Create a Ride Sharing App
Not sure how to start a rideshare company and make it a thriving business? Developing a unique and user-friendly app is a necessary prerequisite to success.
The WMD story was clearly emanating from self-interested parties and was never supported by intelligence officials. The MSM uncovered plenty of evidence that their stories were untrue.

And the question here isn't if his leaks were true, it's if they were coordinated with Russia to disseminate information stolen in an attack targeted to influence one side of America's election. It has been proven in court that Assange was working the Trump campaign via Roger Stone. There is an abundance of evidence the hacker alias who procured the emails was a front for GRU. There is an abundance of evidence that GRU was actively working to support Donald Trump. Trump openly supported their help. The email leak came out immediately after the Access Hollywood tape revealed Trump's penchant for sexual assault.
>I've noticed a rapidly amplifying trend for right-wing opinions

It's correlated with the recent rise in Trump's polling. Left wingers who oppose lockdowns, cancel culture and the riots are being pushed towards the right.
> The proposal put forward by Congressman Rohrabacher was that Mr. Assange identify the source for the 2016 election publications in return for some form of pardon, assurance or agreement, which would both benefit President Trump politically and prevent U.S. indictment and extradition

How would this benefit Trump politically?
What about wifi wall plug which every minute sends your wifi ssid and password in cleartext (inside some binary status packet, but still cleartext) to chinese servers. It was some Ogemray one.
Have you tried a combination of quick-reading and taking notes.

If it's about train of thoughts: for each tab try formulating and writing down a question that came to your mind while reading it.

That is the creative takeaway and it might ease your mind enough to close the tab.
It was built right into the name: a lazy knock off of Tesla that says no vision and... well... lazy knockoff.

With so much money sloshing around at the top we will see a lot more outright scam “unicorns.” Why scam the public for pennies when you can scam the elite for billions?
That's something that can be improved.
The fact that Britain and Scandinavia were, in ancient and early Medieval times, actually very diverse places, is interesting, because within living memory those places are /believed/ to have been > 90% "white".

This raises a number of possibilities for where those beliefs come from:

Option 1: It really is true that, around 1950, those places were > 90% "white", but in ancient times they did not used to be. This would mean that the diversity present in ancient times had subsequently been forced out, either via systematic oppression that motivated out-migration, or via active genocide.

Option 2: Census and other data from the past century were systematically falsified, consistently and at a large scale, to support the regime of white supremacy that then dominated Europe, when in fact those populations were considerably more diverse; non-"white" people were just "officially invisible". Moreover, the commonly-reported subjective memories of older people who say they remember such a time are in fact misimpressions -- because memory, as we know, is unreliable, strongly affected by whatever the social reality is.

In other words, either

- large-scale population replacement occurred in these places within just the recent past, or

- the past is tremendously mutable, in which case nothing you understand as history, nor indeed anything you think you remember, can actually be trusted.

Either conclusion would be very compatible with your opening point that everything is really politics.
There isnt a viable alternative platform, so assuming their legal teams consider this order lawful, why waste money fighting it?

Tree Style Tabs is awesome extension and one of reasons to switch to Firefox.
I expect most of the time is spent on getting financing, permitting, mineral rights, building needed infra, finding buyers for it, and also more testing on the size of the find and potential rate of extractions.
The latest Fortnite for Mac installer was code signed and notarized 3 days ago, so this all seems very fishy to me.

https://epicgames-download1.akamaized.net/Builds/UnrealEngin...

codesign -d -vv ~/Downloads/EpicInstaller-10.18.8-fortnite.dmg

It uses the Epic Games International certificate, which is protected by the court's temporary restraining order.
Surely most people will continue to be able to find a bank that will lend them money under familiar terms of interest. I find it hard to believe or take seriously that an Indonesian body certifying financial instruments of debt as Halal is going to upend JP Morgan and the western banking system en masse.
The parent to my comment says about some "convention to use it rarely" though. Trump so far has used the right 77 times more rarely, and I suspect that the person to whom I replied speaks more about their feelings rather than facts.
I am indeed not sure whether a full-screen blocking modal would be illegal per-se, but the fact that this modal lacks a decline button as easy to use as the "I agree" one would be an obvious breach in my opinion. As it stands giving consent on that Google form is very easy and takes one click, but refusing takes a minute and navigating across several different settings pages.
If you believe that two people with different belief systems discussing can't achieve anything, what are you doing regularly posting (in dissent) in a community that, in your own words, holds a globally contrarian view to yours?

Also I'm not necessarily shooting down the policy, truthfully it's one of those things where I don't feel comfortable having an opinion because it's such a complex subject. I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy of this attitude, treating every other country on earth like dirt and being all pikachu-shocked-face when it happens to you.

Maybe it's a contrarian attitude here because most of the non-US world is sick of this american exclusionism bullshit. I sure am.
Same as all of the accusation of 'shills' that points to whoever post anything that can be remotely construed as 'pro-China'

Seriously, I don't think CCP cares about you enough to pay people who write good English (not so easy to find in China, surprise!) to try to influence your opinion on an online forum.
Hopefully we can tear down the paywall or federally enforceable laws next. It is a travesty that laws can be passed for compliance with proprietary standards which are not accessible to the public.
Yes, it would be great for the American people if China bans iPhones -- Apple would have less of an economic incentive to follow arbitrary and brutally repressive takedown demands from the CCP government like this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19997188

Also, hope the US bans Xiaomi phones for the same reason, since applications like Facebook don't appear in the Mi Store.
From a security standpoint yes, but but the usability wasn't that bad.
This is probably a good development overall but I'd be concerned that the data ends up in Equifax or Transunion. For years they reported erroneously that I had numerous tax liens against me, the only reason it ever got resolved is that laws were changed so that they had to verify the SSN and DOB and since the courts did not provide that information they had to drop them. Who knows what will end up in my report if they are free to scrape all of the judgements and do the same lackluster job of matching them to people.
Kind of irrelevant as the implication of the parent is that it is impossible for the person not to bring up politics. But I have discussed politics extensively, outside of work, with a gay former co worker. Most of his political beliefs have nothing to do with being gay. The loud activist types represent only themselves and not the people they claim to.
Ill put my tin foil hat on and say the internet is completely manipulated with fake commenters for a host of reasons...because it is. Probably something like 70/30 fake to real proportion.
Which TLD did they increase on renew?
I have two of these Hi3520D video encoders, from different manufacturers. They provide services (live-encoding H.264/HEVC to SRT or similar) you'd otherwise have to get a box that's 20x as expensive for, but they are also of course rather buggy, and don't have the best quality-per-bitrate.

When I asked the manufacturers about the telnet password, one of them refused to give it to me (I followed basically the same steps as OP to get the passwd file, and cracked the hash -- it was their domain name...). The other one went, “err, we're not quite sure, but we think it might be <name of competitor>”. And while the competitor's name didn't work, I found _their_ default root password on some random site, and lo and behold, full root access...
I can't fathom having that many tabs open at once. What does your system resources look like?

Assange's case is a perfect example of USA's (and, by extension, USA lackey UK's) "major criminal justice problems". This is a man whose only crime was exposing war crimes to the consideration of the general public. His persecutors have argued in court that he doesn't have 1A rights because he's not a USA citizen, but he is still bound by the most maximalist interpretation of an obscure USA law because "fuck him".

I wish I still wondered where this vehement hatred for innocent victims of the state comes from...

There is a "Close Similar Tabs" extension for Firefox
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/close-similar...

Personally, I usually prune a window with many open tabs,
usually created after a search for a solution or workaround for a bug,
down to the initial search(es) and any useful results,
then bookmark any remaining tabs into a folder,
in the hope that a future search for the same topic
might provoke an auto-suggestion, and in the usually vain hope
that I might someday curate all the folders for related topics
into a coherent hierarchy.
Very nice. I had used DaFang Hacks previously to get RTSP support, but now WYZE provides a semi-official RTSP firmware so I've been using that (and it's much better than DaFang Hacks). It looks like you've recently added RTSP as well. I've give it a try!
That's unrelated. Rogan's interviewing process wouldn't be improved by having leftists on. The point is that "we have a guy who points out contradictions" is not enough to produce productive discourse.
I like the elegance, but am growing to believe voters are simply unwilling to implement it. Mainly because "taxes" are eternally unpopular. It's possible that the best solution is actually the most implementable solution, rather than the most optimal solution.
Completely false. Weekly new cases per capita is merely a function of number of tests performed by authorities, and furthermore the false positive rate of those tests too. Percent positivity of those tests is a somewhat more accurate indication, but those figures rarely see headlines because they are less sensationalist. For example, UK test positivity rates are less than 1/10th what they were at the peak.
You should try a 6Degree of freedom headset like the Quest or a PCVR headset too. It really does click into a sense of reality.
It's still possible possible to build a house today and live in it, and there is plenty of land, even some going for cheap. But most people don't want that because they make that trade off for today's luxuries.
Especially true since living longer often means helping to raise and teach children - passing on knowledge.

Many land animals are intelligent and raise children so it's not clearly the only requirement for advanced development.

....they do certainly have the finger like dexterity for fine object control though.
Even if they offered an affordable ultimate Office package with everything, they'd recoup the development costs and even profit. This is not about "recouping costs", it's about market segmentation. It's about figuring out how much each group is willing to pay and then charging exactly that. If they could, they'd call customers and figure out their net worth before quoting them a price.

https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2004/12/15/camels-and-rubber-...

> this business about segmenting? It pisses the heck off of people.

> People want to feel they’re paying a fair price. They don’t want to think they’re paying extra just because they’re not clever enough to find the magic coupon code.

I don't know a single normal person who's ever bought Office anyway. Their real customers are corporations, since they have money and can actually be sued for copyright infringement if they use Office without licensing it. Microsoft should simply give it away to normal people and charge corporations for it.
Remember when people went ballistic when Trump suggested UV light therapy could be a treatment. (probably still isnt but it was considered a scientific impossibility that UV light does anything to a virus at the time).
I always close my tabs as quickly as possible. "Tabs Zero" so to speak.

I would value a better reopen closed tab feature. Going further back and allowing me specify which closed tab I want back.

Firefox used to let you have multiple sets of tabs within one window and cycle between them, completely hiding the inactive ones. Effectively it felt like you had several browser windows within the one window, and picked which window was active.

Looks like this started way back in Firefox 4, and the UI was a bit all over the place, but I liked using it (mainly by keyboard shortcut):

How much are you getting paid by the Chinese Communist Party to spill this drivel?
> use your browser's history function to find them back

This is what I do when I need to look something back up and it works pretty great honestly.

It seems like it might be a difference between Firefox's behavior and Chrome's though, because any time I've used chrome the suggestions it fed me were autocomplete results from google search.

The great thing about Firefox's "Awesome bar" as I think it is (or was) called is that it looks through your history and ranks things based on frequency / recency of visiting.

So if I want to look up something, there's a good chance I can just start typing the word I remember from the page title and it will pull up the result for me.
There are plenty of reasons why someone would not want to pay for YouTube Premium beyond just money.

Maybe it isn't available in their region, maybe they do not have or want an account or agree with the company's privacy policy, and finally if they clear cookies regularly then an account still won't solve their problem as they'd have to login each time to dismiss the popup.
Wouldn't be great to save all the open tabs, and not only restore them (there are tons of browser extensions that do that), but also treat them as a collection to share, restore in a different computer etc? I built that feature into Histre : https://histre.com/features/save-restore-tabs/ if you're interested.
>Is property damage an improper response to murder?

Maybe property damage might be a proper response to murder, _if it was the property of the murderer_ (the police), as opposed to random small business nearby, many owned by minorities.

I have often wondered about this aspect of lifespan. Octopuses are amazing.

Perhaps their relatively short lifespan and lifecycle after mating is somehow correlated with them being around for 500+ million years. Somehow I find that more fascinating.

I feel like humans are inherently lower on this scale: we definitely live longer but I wonder as a species if we would be better off with shorter lifespan (and life cycle) like octopuses that helps the entire human species survive (peacefully?) as opposed to an optimization around single individual lifespan.
This piece uses snippets of real information to play to a pre-existing agenda thats pretty easy to spot. So please dont jump to conclusions. For example:

>> "New fintech startups must present themselves before the Indonesian Ulema Council .. composed of religious clerics"

But later we learn LinkAja "building the first Sharia mobile money product in Indonesia". So obviously thats not exactly true.

>> embedded in the DNA of the app was Fatwa No. 116 and the fingerprints of three Sharia clerics.

Well obviously. If you want to build a halal certified banking product it has to be implement syariah principles, thats the point.

==

For context the banking system here is dominated by conventional banking, with syariah banking assets tiny in comparison (Rp424 trillion Vs Rp7.4 quadrillion [0]). There is demand for Syariah products, Indonesia has the largest muslim population in the world, hence LinkAja and others looking at it as a way to service this demand. Some people build syariah products for a desire to see Syariah financing implemented as they believe its better, some as its core to their beliefs, some for money.

The VP supports syariah banking, of course. But for context in reality Its a bit of struggle for them (hence the big initiatives), ie not some secret agenda being forced from above.

As for the merits of syariah VS conventional you'll need to research yourself. And if you really want to -OMG- talk to an islamic scholar then fire ahead. You wont exactly get far ignoring one side of the debate. There is also an interesting discussion on whether "regular" syariah banking products are normal ones wrapped in a compliant way, as others have touched upon here. And of course a macro-discussion on the problems with financing & banking ethics by people of all & no faiths.

> How many open Trump supporters do you interact with a week?

If the bubble is just Democrats and Republicans and other Americans, then it's still a fairly small bubble with a narrow view on the world.

It's a huge world, and there's a lot more perspectives on it than is likely to be _easily_ encountered during water cooler conversations at the office.
Codepoints do not match characters. You only need to deal with codepoints to tokenize, but to find the column you need to count characters, which require a unicode database. I think this is what the parent was referring to, though I suspect a lot of compilers simply ignore this issue.

See, this is part of the problem, constantly trying to change what things are outside of our borders.

Bringing Freedom to Iraq, and Democracy to Afghanistan, etc.

The first question to be asked should be 'How is this affecting Americans and their rights' and not how 'this didn't seem to work in China.' Especially seeing the ban applies only to the US.
This whole thing shows the extent to which the powers that be consider social media not as some free-formed independent part of the economy, but rather as an essential tool for surveillance, which is crucial to the intelligence infrastructure of the country. When you view it through that lens it becomes obvious why the U.S. government will not allow a foreign power to gain a major foothold in it with something like TikTok.

Each of the major empires (US, China, Russia) will create their own walled ecosystems for harvesting and cataloging data about their populace, and will fiercely resist any attempts by the others to gain a purchase.
Justifications aside, it seems like we are moving to a multipolar internet.

I wonder how far down the stack that fragmentation will occur.
This is quite the overreaction, and not a good look.
It's brilliant in terms of marketing. It's not so brilliant in terms of actual legal reasons.
