I use rsync whenever I can, I only used scp on my windows machine because I didn't have a working rsync.

Now using croc for single file moves/copy... have to be installed and logged into both sides, but I don't have to copy/paste the entire paths.
I ask this as a non American who has never lived in SF. Does SF need or even want FAANGs? From what I've read the tech boom has brought a load of issues driven by inequality and they're taxing so much to fix these issues. If the tax discouraged tech companies then might that actually help the issues?

As I say I'm asking from ignorance. I also realise I'm likely to get somewhat biased answers to that view point on HN.
Mark Zuckerberg once said that he does not write code anymore because they have a rule at Facebook, that says if you write the code, you have to maintain the code. I think that's a rational choice for a company of that size. Thus I'm not convinced Lutke's ongoing coding is that clever.

Destructive interference may be instantaneous, but a measurement of such certainly isn't. In the low luminance shot noise limited regime it might be significant.
It troubles me how a company can say in the same post that it respects user privacy and used Google reCAPTCHA. It's not only about what you collect, it's also about what third-party services collect. Otherwise the magic solution to respecting user privacy would be using a back-end as a service (e.g. Firebase).

I might try navigating the web while blocking reCAPTCHA. How limited would my reach be? And what about blocking CloudFlare's solution?

The problem is that it supports several files per transaction, for example recursively copying a folder from remote to local - then only the remote actually knows the names of the files and it has to send them.
Most people use scp and not sftp because they prefer the cp-like semantics of the command line tool. I have no idea why OpenSSH's scp does not use SFTP by default and allow an explicit fallback to scp for those systems that don't have the SFTP subsystem enabled.
Honestly I lost all respect for Ma when I watched him debate Elon on the topic of AI last April [1]. Elon just ran circles around him. Like, Elon was playing chess and Ma was playing hopscotch with a football helmet and padded gloves.

That video gave me a lot of insight into Ma's character, and frankly, the contents of the article were thoroughly unsurprising in that context.

> Sweden had a fatality rate of 442 per million. Denmark had 126, Finland 65, Norway 52. So in terms of regional performance Sweden was very poor.

Sweden messed up, but not in the way people are making it to have. They messed up because their care homes and their entire care system for the elderly was poorly managed, but not because they somehow let the disease rip through the general population.
Not sure people are complaining as such. And these comments are on a piece from a country's government that is literally offering to pay people to move there.
It's more of a word of warning, Finnish is a difficult language for a native English speaker to learn compared to, say, French, or even Swedish. Something like Spanish is spoken by a massive number of people in multiple nations - Finnish only in one small one.
I try and get by with Finnish when I can, but at the end of the day I still have a rather taxing (hah) job to do full time and I came here by choice so I want to enjoy it.
Unless it is the Pandoc markdown dialect (and perhaps not even then) the fact that it is markdown and not some more powerful language, already tells me, that its use is rather limited. If it was for example rst, it would be actually useful also for technical and scientific documents in general, which have sometimes need of document internal referencing of arbitraty elements, not only headings. Then of course all the other things Pandoc markdown brings, that are more geared towards finding a syntax for citations and footnotes etc. If all of that is not available either, the use is already quite limited.
This an extremely terse and pointed article about the present day reality of a command that users generally take for granted or avoid altogether.

LWN rarely disappoints, but scp is an obvious next step for beginners upon learning about SSH access, and it's really great to provide context around what is actually happening with it in a manner that actually might be in reach of understanding for beginners.
Sausages may have also been unaffordable for a typical prostitute, even with a free condom with every link.
You know, it's easy to be an asshole when you're brilliant. But that's why soft skills are important, especially in leadership roles.

I tried my best to be a supporting lead, everywhere i was in that role. I believe in leading by example, but i recognize the necessity to _let_ people do things themselves and not just hog power because "i know best". Let people implement imperfect designs. They'll own it, learn, and fix them in time. Your job is to lead, to give direction and not let total crap be put into prod, not keep people under your "benevolent dictator" heel.
> than Corbet should clarify what he means when he says "the openssh community" considers scp deprecated because it sounds like he's only speaking for himself.

Jonathan Corbet is an employee of LWN, which produces news on a variety of Linux topics, funded by paid subscribers (like me). As far as I know he's not a contributer to OpenSSH any more than he is to any other project he reports about, unless you know something specific? Or are you mixing this up with someone's personal blog?
Frustrated by this as well.

Have spent several days over the past few months working on a reimplementation of Nix support to make it possible to wind down "community" support without forcing projects to find a new CI.

Feels like a lot of wasted effort. :/

2 out of the 3 First Amendment claims (overbreadth, prior restraint) were dismissed. The one that survived was that 1201 might be unconsitutional as applied to the specific set of facts: a researcher publishing a book on encryption. The case is ongoing; there are no indications that EFF will succeed.
This looks about right to me. To add for reference, something like 5200 € / month gross puts you to top 10% earners in Finland already. So it is an excellent salary to get locally.

I also know of a few developers making 10k€ / month but I have to say they're very rare to come across in this country.
Over here in northern Europe, for a typical single-family house, replacing an oil-fired boiler with an air-water heat pump (that is, the heat pump uses outside air to heat water that can be run through the existing radiators) costs around 10k-15kEUR, replacing the boiler with a ground-source heat pump (incl. borehole drilling, the whole shebang) is around 15-25kEUR.

So the price difference is not huge. In southern parts of the country, and for older houses with less expected life left in them, air-source pumps have proved more popular, whereas further up north and for newer buildings ground-source pumps are more often the choice.
Or just set up 2fa and give the second factor to a third party whom the state has difficulty compelling. Granted this does require unconditional trust.
Reading comprehension issue on my part there, sorry.

I should have specified glob expansion in the source part, which SCP needs to handle.
I prefer to use rsync over SSH as a replacement for scp:

alias scp='/usr/bin/rsync --archive --xattrs --acls --progress --rsh="ssh"'

I have completely deprecated for myself the use of both scp and sftp many years ago and I disable the sftp server (in sshd.conf) on all my servers.

While scp and sftp are also slower, usually being unable to reach link speed on fast links, the main reason is that I have discovered that when copying files with them they sometimes were losing file metadata (e.g. parts of the timestamps or extended attributes) without any warnings or errors.

rsync does not have such problems, it can make exact copies even when copying between different operating systems or different file systems.

Because I have stopped using both scp and sftp many years ago, I do not know whether meanwhile there was any effort to remove the bugs from scp and sftp, but I doubt it.

I had it with Nexus 5x. It died after 1.5 years when I used an app to get a train ticket. It turned out it was a known hardware bug judging by forums. It was in Norway so the phone was still under warranty and it was “repaired” - the motherboard was replaced. Still not much later I bought the original iPhone SE. I just did not like the idea of phone stopping working for no reason.

It might be advisable to think Finland as a small company, with its own language, laws and such sheiße. You would not invest your life, move the family and learn the language, if the company is run by evil clueless people. You should check the prospects of maintaining the reputed wellfare system. Then you might realize Finland is not part of Scandinavia or even Northern Europe much longer.

Hm I was hoping for waaaay more tools being listed and compared. It doesn't even contain a single tool I would have considered (Signal, Wire, Discord, Riot (I know it got renamed)). I would also like to see unfortunately widespread tools in there like MS Teams or Slack.
Yes that, Exactly!
I'm not sure I agree with that.

Of course there are many moonshot projects where money is of vital importance. But for most things, the market is the best signalling mechanism available. Having little money forces you to be very attuned to the signals of the market, giving you an advantage over those who might insulate themselves from that feedback mechanism with a buffer of money.

It's hard to keep yourself attuned enough while also having money in reserve, though perhaps it is possible to have enough discipline to do so.

I have a 3770k at home too. How did you upgrade to an NVME? There's no M2 port on my motherboard and I can't boot the OS on the NVME / PCI express I bought.
I also can't get through Google recaptcha. Proxy services rotate their up blocks so you can't simply block them all.

Captchas are in their infancy. We need to move beyond something that involves simply clicking to identify images - we're providing free training for AI, not to mention the fact that it's incredibly inconvenient for blind people.

I think a measure of uniqueness is required based answers to questions that don't necessarily have correct answers. The distance between the question and answer would be the measure. Identifying questions that provide consistent distances for individuals would be the hard thing.

The only major economy in the world is the USA. Not China, not Europe, not Japan. Besides that, the US dollar is the de facto world currency.

To give you an idea of how important the US capital markets are, China is sitting there holding its breath, in mortal fear of having 1,000 of their companies delisted. It was access to US markets that funded BRI, China's navy and army, etc.

The ANT IPO that Xi killed on a whim is a clear warning to anybody who wants to invest in China - invest in the USA instead.

I generate bunch of JSON data from my machine learning runs (a bunch of outputs for analysis), so this fits my use case perfectly (inspecting changes of different run settings).

Although you already got my upvote for the use of yer... (I use it all the time and rarely see anyone using it, yagetme).
Yeah, that's one downside of focusing on size alone, you'll have to make many compromises what to include and what to leave out. I'd love if browsers would have font- and text-rendering APIs that are low-level enough to integrate with WebGL/WebGPU.
With (g)awk it can be even worse.

$ awk 'BEGIN{while(getline<"phonebook")p[$1]=$2} $1 in p{print $0,p[$1]}' names.tsv

If the file `phonebook` doesn't exist, this will just sit there politely waiting for you to create the file in your other terminal. (And then when you do, it could crash with `fatal: cannot open file `names.tsv' for reading (No such file or directory)` if that file also doesn't exist. Consistency yay.)
I agree rsync is better than using tar, but often I'm using that ssh/tar command line before rsync is available on the other end.
Do you have any examples of the kind of patents you would need to license?

I don't anything in the ISA itself is covered by patents anymore. And the basic techniques for making a high performance CPU are getting quite old. Seems like a lot of the techniques used by desktop CPUs being released today have a a lot to do with advanced cache architectures, "AI" branch prediction, virtual memory, hypervisors, etc. A lot of these things will not be so relevant to a special purpose embedded CPU like this.
No it's whe have already sftp wich is better and whe have unfixed bugs in scp so whe throw it out.

>>The scp command is a historical protocol (called rcp) which relies upon that style of argument passing and encounters expansion problems. It has proven very difficult to add "security" to the scp model. All attempts to "detect" and "prevent" anomalous argument transfers stand a great chance of breaking existing workflows. Yes, we recognize it the situation sucks. But we don't want to break the easy patterns people use scp for, until there is a commonplace replacement
> The analysis is consistent with man made

Out of curiosity, does it matter that much at this point in time whether it's man made or not?

I'd assume that it's probably a much better time to look into that once the pandemic is resolved, but I'd be interested in arguments to the contrary.
>Also why is it that the majority of the large tech companies are essentially marketplaces?

They may earn money from a marketplace, but the reason is not because they have a marketplace. They earn money because one they did or do something that others can't or were too late to, such as creating hardware and software people want, creating and operating online services people want (Maps, Cloud Services), infrastructure for retail, or a network where everyone is and can provide some level of proof for identity or credibility.

> 1. Americans view property as an investment while also wanting it to be affordable. These are mutually exclusive. If you want something to be a good investment you want it to become less affordable over time.

This comes up a lot, but is false. It's easy to have every single home become more expensive over time while the average unit remains affordable. Let me paint a picture of how it would work in a city where you can actually build new housing at higher density.

Family buys single family home in year A for $100k. Lives there for a while, then sells in year B for $200k. The buyer is a developer, who then constructs a larger building on that same lot consisting of 4 apartments that now each sell for $100k again. Original family gains in wealth, developer makes tidy profit, new families can still buy a place to live for $100k. All numbers inflation-adjusted, you pick A and B to make whatever return you think is reasonable.

This is how density increases happened almost everywhere, until zoning laws became the new way to keep racial minorities out of white neighborhoods, roughly mid-century, after restrictive racial covenants (i.e., "when you buy this house you agree not to sell it to anyone non-white") became illegal.

Note what you don’t get out of this arrangement: a neighborhood that doesn’t change for 40 years; the ability to live in the same type of house your parents did, in the same neighborhood, for the same price. But you could have the same amount of (indoor) space they did, and outdoor space through public parks and the like.

What’s not sustainable is everyone having a suburban style detached single family home without increasing density in perpetuity. That is what leads to this contradiction.

The non-density alternative is sprawl, where prices rise in long-established neighborhoods, and outlying new developments are where you can buy new houses for less—which is what you observe all over California.
I'm doing that right now, but I can't figure out how to avoid downtime
No. The reason there are few FANGS is that they are platform businesses, and the value of their services is proportional (or more?) to the size of their user bases.

This means winner-takes-all. There were others, but they did not grow users as fast, so they lost.

Another thing to point out is that while search and ads is Google's revenue, with chrome, gmail, android, etc they are achieving a form of lock-in. If anyone else "owned" these surfaces, replacing their search box would be much easier.

The spread risk investment strategy is also correct, since the value of any platform market is low before the winner emerges. After the winner emerges, the value of that platform is the value of the entire market.
This is interesting because I felt the exact opposite, seeing Musk babbling incoherent ideas and Ma with a clear vision of AI's future.
