> I can't speak for Giuliani, and I agree that his involvement in this is strange, but NYP, Daily Caller, and National Pulse have all offered to share the contents of the drive with other journalists. I don't know to what extent they have been taken up on it.

They are offering to share the cherry-picked communications meant to smear someone, are you actually surprised real journalists aren't taking the bait? If you actually care, ask yourself why Giuliani hasn't shared the entire drive with anyone besides far-right media dedicated to helping Trump get reelected.

Yay for the oppression olympics, whoever claims the most oppression the loudest gets attention. All you're incentivizing is increasing claims of oppression, not any improvement. Admitting any improvement would hurt the position.

Ask HN: Would the cauchy distribution help with mitigating timing based attacks?
From what I know, having a random delay to mitigate them doesn't work because you can average the time.

Along with that, the Cauchy distribution apparently has no average from my knowledge standpoint. So, would it make sense to use it to mitigate timing based attacks?

What? The real numbers, with all the uncomputable reals included, are used in every corner of physics, not just in string theory. There is no treatment of calculus (with any semblance of popularity) that does not feature the usual real line.
I've been in extreme, and I mean absolutely extreme, acute pain before. More than once. The first time was a very severe injury. I took painkillers for a couple of days then stopped. It would wax and wane, multiple times a day, I would be crying without a single thought going through my head. Then I realized, pain is designed to provoke a response from danger, I know there's no danger, so pain is just a feeling. That's all it is, like the wind blowing in your face. Just a feeling.

That helped. I had a big pain tolerance after that for many years. That isnt a good thing because you tend to ignore things that hurt. I had a few equally painful experienced that I managed to be fine through.

This mindset that helped me doesn't work for chronic pain though. It does, at first, but after a while you just get worn down. When you've had a pain somewhere or other for a decade, even a mild one, it wears on you. At any point in time something hurts for me. Mostly the result of those injuries I suffered a long time ago. It isn't debilitating. But it is always there. Some days are worse than others.
I had the same issue with iPhone 7 this August. I ended up letting the battery deplete leaving it for some time and then recharging it and that helped. I couldnt brighten the screen :( because of the Apple logo being at full Brightness i was also positive its software not hardware
It's not arbitrary. A large street will always get right of way. If there is a grid of smaller streets running through a suburb of similar size, it alternates so every second street is a stop sign.

4 way stops sound like bad design to me, it seems like it would leave room for an aggressive driver to take off when they're not first in to an intersection, bullying their way through.

Roundabouts and standard intersections in Australia do not suffer from this, as in both cases there is a clear right of way. If an accident happens, it's generally obvious who is at fault without the need for dash cam footage.

> You can write code. Can you build software?

After 20 years doing this job I can confirm that building software is really hard. I’m not sure how you really give people experience with that. My courses at uni did little to prepare me for building software.

Once you have a codebase in place, things are a whole lot easier. There are far fewer decisions to be made. Really you have little choice in how to do things as the current structure dictates your options. Discussions with customers are easier too, as you’re no longer talking in the abstract.

But it’s really challenging reaching that point.

Edit: having said all that, this does look like an interesting course

Funny you say this, my reaction upon reading it was “why wouldn’t they?” and reflecting on how I would absolutely trust an audit from a reputable company.

Every financial scam or scandal you read about in the press has at some point been signed off by a reputable accounting firm. Every single one.

The unusual thing about the Enron case is that there actually was some blow-back on the accounting firm too. Business as usual is that the accountants are like teflon.

Mark Zuckerberg, because I know you will read this in person, I will tell you 2 words only "SEC 2018". I think you're smart enough to understand me ;-)

$1M, for the service I did for you in 2017. I understand why you hacked my personal computer and your desire to check if I had extracted personal information about your users BUT to steal intellectual property from it that does not belong to you... https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2017/11/artificial-intellige... ... this is the reason why you will pay me $1M not $10K as for ordinary bug bounty reward.

It will be very strange when someone Emil Enchev from Bulgaria publishes an article in https://arxiv.org/ which demonstrates translation algorithm which not need a two-way dictionary, something you're just talking about yet, and he claims that you plagiarized from him by hacking into his personal computer.

It can easily be shown that you have changed your login form from 2017 exactly to block exploiting of bug I talk about - and the question will be how do I know why you made this change when you have never announced this publicly?

It will be a little awkward if you try to challenge the new rising star in AI which demonstrates new algorithms in this field (far above what Facebook owns) that have no analogue, carefully described and with all the program code behind them.

But the catastrophe for Facebook will come after that. What will happen when I open my mouth about 2018 "BIG FACEBOOK HACK" and SEC? So, Mark, I know you understand perfectly well what I'm talking about. Better someone from Facebook to contact me on the specified email and we to solve the problem with your financial obligations to me. I told you above $1M now, or $100M after several months - your choice.

NASA S Equipping Viper
NASA is equipping its VIPER lunar probe with two floodlights, similar to those used in dark night environments that might be installed on trucks or jeeps. These floodlights will be used to illuminate the darkest parts of the moon, enabling the VIPER lunar probe to find water in places that are difficult to see. NASA demonstrated one of the floodlight prototypes before the mission.
https://ycnews.com/guatemala-pacaya-volcano-erupts-and-parks...

NASA explained that the VIPER team has been testing various LED-based lighting systems designed to be used in the coldest and darkest places on the moon, which will be necessary for lunar rover navigation to find water in other basically invisible places.
https://ycnews.com/united-states-launched-a-minuteman-3-inte...

As part of this work, we are exploring different wavelengths, including the bright blue floodlights shown in test images recently shared by NASA. These lights need to provide the best working condition for VIPER's optical system, including various cameras installed on the detector. Among other things, these cameras will help it navigate around the boulders and avoid falling into deep craters on the moon.

You brain somehow get used to the pain when it meticulously destroy your body for no reason, no danger, no signal everyday. I have ankylosing spondylitis.

Lasg time I heavily cut my finger while cooking, didnt feel a thing. Didnt feel anything on my first tattoo - the tattoo artist was quite surprised.

Now I feel a bit better with some anti IL17 medicine.

And yet some day the pain comes back with new, untold and unreasonable levels of pain and you can't explain that to most people. The scale has changed and most of you will never feel that - or just once in a while. But not enough, not everyday with this consistency that shreds through your mental ability to take it and to shatter your life.

I would trade a night of torture against my health back.

And then the doctor with all his knowledge says that no - no other painkillers for AS ! Just nsaids !

I care about what Gates says because he's founded one of the world's largest charity organizations and has done a great deal to reduce human suffering as well as specifically a lot of work in regard to climate change. Being rich alone doesn't matter to me, I don't give a damn what e.g. Jeff Bezos has to say about the matter.

Being a prolific author doesn't mean much to me and neither does being an environmental philosopher in this context. Someone like Peter Singer definitely is an authority on environmental ethics, but on the effect of climate change/the ecological state of the world I don't see why anyone would consider him an authority.

I think people in Europe underestimate just what a CRAZY place the US is. It's basically a third-world country with a first-world economy. You feel unsafe on the streets, and you have to be alert all the time. A lot of people in the US are just plain nuts, just look at who they voted for. Obviously, its positive sides are also crazy good. Before Trump, they voted for Obama. I guess it is a place for young people and gamblers.
Slightly funny story similar to yours: we were having our 2nd kid and my wife was given no2 gas as a painkiller. I got to be in charge of the dial that controlled the no2/oxygen mix. We started at, like, 40% no2 but then she said she was in pain so I dialled it up to 60%. She was still in pain after half an hour so I increased to 80%. 30 mins later she was in a lot of pain and I noted you could actually set it to 100% no2, but didn't understand how she'd get any oxygen at that setting. I should probably have figured it out at that point, but was pretty sleep-deprived. I asked a nurse why the no2 wasn't working and she said "why, you're almost on 80% oxygen now!"
> But I thought REST was a "protocol neutral architectural style",

It is.

> so why are we stuck with 200, 201, 202, 204, 3xx, 4xx, 5xx which "are usually fine alone".

I reject the stuck-with description, which I did not make, but the reason we can catalog those as existing and having those features is because, in context, we're discussing REST-over-HTTP and adhering to the semantics of the underlying protocol without ad hoc extension or modification is part of the REST architectural style, with the purpose of minimizing API-specific out-of-band knowledge that must be transferred to use the API. And the definition of the semantics of those messages in HTTP undergirds the summary I provided.
doubling the price of energy would push a lot of elderly, infirm, and poor people to stop heating their homes

2x increase in cost doens't necessarily directly translate to doubling the price for everyone. For example it could be coupled with a scheme where consuming way above average makes the part which is above much more expensive, depending on income, to yield the ones consuming less and/or low income not having to pay double. Plus taxing overconsumption could be an incentive to getting rid of some needless energy usage.
Indeed, I wrote a tool[0] to make it easy to grab a page and run xpath queries on it. It’s really surprising how much mileage I’ve gotten out of it.

Sounds about right.

Off topic takeaway from the article:

If anyone wants to see what a real gig economy is about, just examine nursing care in America (all facets of it). Highly gig oriented, extreme efficiency that leads to classes of workers (actual RNs, down to CNAs), a clear cohort of what appears to be cheaper immigrants, crazy crazy saturation and demand at the same time, with basically shit pay.

You make reasonable money by basically working as many hours as possible in that hyper industry. That could mean working straight double shifts multiple times a week in one place, or in multiple places. And there is crazy demand to have these shifts filled, and crazy saturation by cheaper and more available nurses. I doubt anyone in that overworked, treated like shit, industry gives a fuck that they are going around spreading COVID to it’s target demographic.

Gig economy is scary stuff when in full effect, pure ruthless capitalism on all sides. Brings out the worst of us.

Oh, and the nurses are in a perpetual fight with facilities over pay raises. Nursing homes regularly optimize for minimum number of nurses needed, minimum pay, but maximum hours and shifts. There’s no way you can treat people like this and expect them to not turn callous. It’s factory work model more or less, and we all know how those people are treated.

Got nothing good to say here unfortunately, someone paint a rosier picture.

Is what I mean with political process. Patching the compositor is the wrong side of the equation, it doesn't work with networked clients and it's the client that needs most of the features. It's the client that needs to have a more expressive surface to work with. You can do these things safely and securely without the overbearing constraints and complexity of the policies that we are practically stuck with. See the trayicon/stream-deck articles.

> I'm aware that Arcan got wayland support recently and that actually gives me more hope that we're not headed towards an apocalypse of protocol incompatibilities.

I don't know if 4 years is recently in that span (see the dating my X post), but Xwayland support was initially decided as off limits. That was added recently because, as it turns out, those clients are still the ones that behave the most predictably and are the most robust. Even for applications that should handle both and I need to choose explicitly (arcan-wayland -exec-x11 the_thing or arcan-wayland -exec the_thing) I really only use the x11 side. Even for gtk and Qt. That's the real tragedy.

I would say the babel-split is practically here because of all the sidebands and ad-hoc protocols that have been introduced specifically as a reaction to the strictness and limitations of the initial designs and the poor underlying primitives (as in the wire format and its de facto implementation).

I am Deaf and I live in a country with diglossia. This means, transcripts fail if customers or colleagues switch to the other language (Swiss German, a bit like Dutch in being different from German). Additionally, there are sometimes customers talking in French or English. This means, video conferences usually don't work for me. I either correspond by email only or have a Signed Language interpreter or a human transcriptor.

But nowadays I am quasi-retired anyway because of issues related to being limited in other ways and I am happy that way because I avoided some bullshit that comes with working for and with the corporate world since a few years. My quality of life has risen.

I still program just out of fun and I found another niche: counseling in life and juridical questions for Deaf and HoH people, and the little money is welcome.

Western industry has progressively lost their ability to efficiently manage many types of heavy industry and large construction projects. This is particularly true for nuclear, which requires the application of disparate and highly specialized techniques and skillsets that are quickly lost. Though not to the same extent as the U.S., Japan, France, and South Korea have lost many of the same skills even though only a couple of decades ago they could churn out new nuclear plants with breakneck speed. (The only thing more astonishing than the efficiency of the French and Korean nuclear industries was how quickly they died.)

Reviving the nuclear industry will be painful and costly, but the same is true for reviving and rehabilitating other heavy industries that have withered away, if and when these countries ever choose to do so. The justifications for resolving ourselves to their death are hypocritical. Both solar and wind power manufacturing industries, not to mention the automobile industry, would be non-existent in the U.S. without heavy subsidies. For example, special trade zones that incentive partial manufacturing of certain wind generator components in the U.S., or in the case of automobiles flat-out quotas. But even then the future of these industries in the U.S. remain tenuous. Fortunately for consumers (but less so for semi-skilled and skilled factory labor), solar panels, wind generators, and cars are easily imported; nuclear plants not so much, not unless the modular reactor designs take off.[1]

[1] Interestingly, the skillsets, including project management techniques, for these industries can't be imported, either. Toshiba bought Westinghouse because they thought they could use their superior heavy industry skills to rehabilitate Westinghouse and the American nuclear industry. But heavy industry skillsets are especially tuned to local industrial supply chains and labor pools, as well as domestic regulatory frameworks. Toshiba couldn't do squat with Westinghouse; it was deadweight from day 1.

Passive aggressiveness doesn’t discourage people from the behaviour, it just makes them think you’re an unpleasant person. If you want somebody to change their behaviour, tell them what the problem is and ask them to change it. “?” doesn’t do that.
