Regulation should prevent this from occurring. If you use a product that claims it is E2E and it is not, you should be able to sue wildly for potential damages given the sensitive nature of the software.
There is a little window on the cartridges the printer shines a light through to detect the toner. When it can see the light you get out-of-toner errors. If you mark over it with a sharpie, it will print again. I'll be the judge of when it's out of toner based on how faded the print is. As infrequently as I print this trick can make a cartridge last months longer.
It really depends on the route (and the airline). Some routes I've flown are scheduled for different types throughout the day; it's not uncommon to fly on the other type. As a bonus, different types have different premium rows, if you reserve a non-premium seat and the type is changed, you may keep the seat number and get a premium seat.

Has anyone else noticed that Apple has been slowly moving away from the long-form guides that were helpful at explaining core concepts? I remember once seeing a comprehensive guide on code signing, but over the years it appears to have been scrubbed from their documentation resources. In its place is a much less helpful (but prettier-looking) guide.

In comparison, I've noticed Android has FANTASTIC developer documentation. I've found full guides for everything. Even esoteric classes that are rarely used have at least a little bit of documentation.

This sounds less like anti-trust than a conflict of interest violation. What law does that break? It feels like antitrust is being misused for lack of legislation banning this specifically.
Was the article pounded together by an overworked, exhausted and underpaid reporter, or put together by some kind of summarization/content generation algorithm? That is the question.
The client application was also the server application. Clients with good connections which appeared to always be online became super nodes which were the directory "servers" you would connect to. The code base contained a long list of previously known super nodes and would attempt to connect to those on first start. As it ran it would keep syncing the list of close super nodes. There were many hundreds of super nodes, so the odds of all of them changing or going offline were pretty slim.

I imagine some people at Skype probably kept a few instances of Skype running at the office. So they technically hosted a few super nodes, but it wasn't necessarily that they were running some vastly different server version of the app. It wasn't until Microsoft decided to cut down on the P2P aspect of the app and hardcode only Azure-hosted super nodes into the application that this changed.
From what I can tell from this, the main reason for the EU cloud/internet is that the next years (they assume) we'll see a lot more personal data being managed by companies (health, personal data, etc); so they are looking for a way to be able to remove bad actors from the pool of companies who can access this data.

If you think about it in GDPR terms, any service that is not compliant is simply not accessible from the EU internet.

I would expect this to somehow fit together with articles 11 and 13 in order to enforce them (if they ever get implemented).

I was expecting their predictions to be a bit more grim. Machine learning, privacy, and encryption play little to no part in their assumptions of the big things that will change.
My gripe is the companies who failed to implement because they couldn't do security in a way that was easy to use and resulted in a good user experience, but chose to be honest.

I hate the

>> To be clear, this does not demonstrate that Covid infection causes mental illness from a neurological perspective.

I think that's likely a non-significant part of it. As the saying goes, "Perception is reality" (which is demonstrated in phenomena like the placebo effect, or widespread beliefs in theories like QAnon or RussiaGate) - if so, it shouldn't be terribly surprising that a person who subjects their mind to large quantities of subjective "Coronavirus!!!!!!!" "journalism" would have a genuinely different reaction than that of someone who only exposed their mind to objective statistics.

I looked at your posting history, not much Hitler mentions in responses relating to those topics. This is hyperbolic.

If your position was moderate then "Most software already practically backdoored already" would have been sufficient.

You're way too focused on Hitler. Pretend it's not Hitler, the point is still valid.

What does not work with jitsi? I've been using a lot recently and it is by far the easiest one to use. One link and done. I have lots of video and audio issues with zoom. Now, if you're a company, bluejeans may be the best one.
not everyone works at a startup or small company to cash out someday. Lot of people just get a regular job at these companies just like they would at a large company. There is no expectation of any additional payout because they are employees who get decent salary, benefits and are happy to go home with a work life balance. If you want founder benefits, you have to be willing to work like a founder and most people don't want to do that contrary to what HN crowd may think or believe.

I've written before about my laser Brother. It's not an excelent quality product, just a regular printer that doesn't extort you. And sadly this is all it takes to put a printer brand as a top value for your money, and to make a buyer happy.
Hi oefra! Thanks for the feedback. We wanted to provide the same security pattern that iPhone's provide - 4 digit, 6 digit and alphanumeric. This gives the user the power to determine their own security depending on the type of information they are planning to store. Also, based on the overwhelming feedback here on security details, I think we will publish a white paper soon to make it more clear :)

FWIW I found this study while trying to find the original study: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanpsy/article/PIIS2215-0...

Although this study is on people in Korea, it would be better if it was done on Americans to make it a better comparison.
I think most people are perfectly capable of understanding the idea of low upfront costs and high maintenance costs. But if you're not expecting to print a lot, the payback time for a more expensive printer with cheaper ink/toner could easily be several years. People are used to replacing consumer electronics every few years anyway, and the 1 or 2 year guarantees reinforce that.
Airfoils pitch up by default. Its how they work.

Aircraft are designed to not let that happen in an uncontrolled fashion. Software has been used to do this since the advent of computers in airplanes

Maybe we should also start boycotting A320neo's too

I don’t know much about airplane design. But if you told me that a software was so buggy that it was pulled out of market and then years were spent fixing the bugs in it, I almost certainly would not trust the resultant software more than I would have trusted a complete rewrite.

If aircraft manufacturing is anything like software development (and considering a lot of the issues in the Max are software related there’s at least some of that), this does not make me confident in the Max at all.

1. Notepad++ has macros when I need it.

2. Rectangular selection is available is VSCode and I use it a lot. The generalisation, multiple cursors (with each cursor having its own clipboard), is the best thing since sliced bread in a text editor.

3. I don't have undo tree, I can see it being useful sometimes. Hope it appears in VSCode soon [1]. Fequent automated backups (file history) works OK as an alternative.

4. Ctrl+left, ctrl+right jumps a word in every editor in Windows. In VSCode you can also jump a fraction of a word (to an underscore or the next part of a camel case name).

5. Well this I can't do but never needed to.

I have been trying to optimize a initContainer written in NodeJS and one of the experiment I am trying out is to rewrite it in .NET Core and Microsoft's documentation has been pretty good - it is clear, well organized, gives you examples for each API and there are how-tos for things that people typically care about - the architecture docs linked from here for e.g. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/

API docs example -https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.collectio...

I find the Python docs and tutorials good as well. But that's to be expected for mature language/ecosystem like Python.

Good documentation is a lot of work and skill and it's a thankless job for the most part. So it's really amazing when organizations / OSS communities get it right consistently.

No, clicking through this thread and the big threads [1] [2] in the past 5 days, commenters mentioning "Brother laser" have much more than 100,000 combined karma and most of the accounts are 3+ years old.

With a history like Brother's, and awful competitors like HP and Canon inkjets, you too can get free, genuine endorsements in the form of raving comments for your brand on HN.

I'd also happily endorse my Fluke multimeter, or my Mitutoyo digital calipers, or my Wiha screwdriver set. If you make great products that people like to use, people will leave positive feedback for you. This kind of endorsement is exactly what shills are trying to copy, so it does look similar.

Disclaimer: I'm yet another happy Brother owner. I love my 2380DW, which I recently bought to replace my first Brother laser (I forget the model number) that had served me well for more than a decade. That's in sharp contrast to the crappy HP inkjet I bought my first year of college, which lasted less than one semester, and my wife's several inkjets through her college days (now, obviously, she uses the Brother laser) and my parent's various inkjet struggles. Some 5 years ago, I set them up with a 2730DW, and the first service I've had to do for them was to change the wifi password a few months ago when they changed ISPs.

I think it's a good approach, it:

1) Works as a club for developers to get the time they need to improve processes and code. "Do you want to be responsible for the HN article about the incident this will cause?" would give most managers pause.

3) Gives customers the confidence that you'll let them know when issues that might affect their experience or data are occurring.

4) Proves to customers that you can fix these issues when they come up.

5) Makes people wonder what's going on in your competitors that they're not hearing.

On the other hand you don't get to pretend the sun shines out your ass, but that's disingenuous and most people will see through it anyway, you only trick the people that also want to go along with you.
It is not impossible to monitor an adequate number of people who had Covid and see if they are getting better. If their state plateaus, that is evidence their condition may be permanent.

It's a related idea.

With a closed ISA, the only manufacturers are closed-source and I can't verify the chip is secure under any circumstances.

With an open ISA, I may not be able to verify all designs are secure, but, I can verify that some are secure and choose one of those.
Seems like you are mixing up your claims and your premises a bit. Let me try to untangle this. The fork happened, yes, but it did not take the market as you claimed. Also, not “nearly all developers” but barely a dozen of the forkers’ closest friends left ownCloud. I currently have around 50 colleagues in engineering and support alone. ownCloud is doing rather fine, thank you, both as an open-source project and as a company, both with community users and enterprise users.

There are multiple open-source file sync and share platforms. The reason is quite simple: There are multiple ways to implement a digitally sovereign file platform, and different needs call for different feature sets. ownCloud focuses on code quality, reliability and features that security conscious companies and institutions have come to expect. You do not have to like ownCloud, you do you. To your open standards point: I posted here because we use go-micro in our current rewrite, which is by the way under the Apache 2.0 licence. We cherish and embrace open standards and open source, so I don’t exactly get what you mean by “more open standards”. But to answer your first question: we did not die because we were and are in good health, still had and have work to do and, most importantly, have oodles of happy users and customers to serve.

Mine was the same, it was over a $50 item. But when they know Amazon isn't concerned about blatant bribes to buy good reviews they have nothing to worry about on that side and the bigger concern is being called out in reviews of their store and the item being slammed. I guess bad reviews hurt their business quite a bit. Amazon needs to take this threat to its business seriously and I am seeing no signs they intend to.

Some brief googling doesn't support the assertion that there are as many liberal (Democratic) gun owners as their are conservative (Republican) gun owners:

https://news.gallup.com/poll/21496/gun-ownership-higher-amon...

But this is way too reductive. There's lots of gun ownership in the US across all political affiliations. Additionally, gun ownership is independent of someone's views on guns. I know people with liberal views on gun ownership who don't own guns and people with restrictive views on gun ownership who do own guns.
They are investment funds that manage billions of dollars. They invested 800k hoping to make 80-800M out of it.

It's pretty obvious the business didn't pan out as well as intended. It's not really worth their time anymore.

Still. They could have caused troubles and tried to recoup their $800k out of the $4M. They were nice not to.

The money will be written as a loss and go through some accounting/tax trick to minimize the effective loss.
There was a period a few months ago where jitsi was consistently crashing chromebooks. Obviously, if a webpage can crash the OS, it's an OS problem, but it still made jitsi unusable for those with chromebooks.

Maybe? But their experiences do match mine. I bought a cheap Brother printer laserjet a few years ago. I needed the occasional B&W print job and plugged in the ethernet port. It worked out of the box for Debian and Windows, no special drivers needed. (I used to have to have some strange binary, but that hasn't been necessary anymore).

I don't remember the last time I exchanged out the toner cartridge (Maybe it's the first one? But I think I did have to exchange it at some point.), and it works reliably everytime I need to print. For $100, that isn't bad.

For another reference, I also bought one for my old college lab in ~2008-2009. I went back for a visit in 2019, and it was still there and it was working fine.

I get what you mean though, it seems in every printer thread the Brother recommendations have popped up.
Indeed, but it was substantially reduced from the original vision.
I could have sworn I read a comment on this site a few years ago where someone claimed they had to submit a support ticket in order to grt documentation for some Apple API.
Seems fine to me. 85 people from the placebo group caught covid. If the vaccine was completely ineffective you'd expect roughly the same number in the vaccinated group. The actual number was 9.

What you're saying is the 9 is pretty close to 34 (60% effectiveness). No, it isn't. You'd need to quadruple the number of vaccinated cases to get there. Even if you double them, you're still at 80% so I'd take that as the realistic worst case.

Edit: Also, this is BioNTech's vaccine, not Pfizer's. They partnered with Pfizer as they have the facilities and scale for a massive rollout, but it was developed by BioNTech. I wish they were getting more credit in the US & UK coverage.

Does supporting far right coups and writing context free puff pieces like this(constantly)[1] after a massive turnout for the very left wing party that the NYT railed against seem center left? Or, their uncritical push for the war in Iraq. Or their complete silence on the United State's role in Yemen etc... They write articles like this weekly, if that is not neoliberal then what is it?

The difference with AF447 was that the aircraft at no point was defective, it was purely confusion on part of the flight crew and the issue with two pilots "in control" which the Captain absolutely should have dealt with.
