Putting aside how horrible DMCA is in general, the article is specifically about invalid takedown requests for completely unrelated content. This is just ridiculous, and won't stop until there's real consequences for filing invalid requests. As far as I know, there's currently no penalty whatsoever for it, which allows these companies to just open the flood gates and spray in every direction with zero fucks given about destroying people's livelihood.

I'm curious if there's any possibility for a counter-lawsuit against these companies for mass filing invalid DMCA requests. Maybe once they get burned a few times they'll at least try to be smarter about how they file them?
I found it easier to work with mbed than STM32Cube for USB and ethernet. I found it really hard to understand the autogenerated STM32Cube with USER CODE BEGIN lines and couldn't make sense of non-working examples for Ethernet and USB for my target board.

Mbed was more of an abstraction layer - I saw a lot of similarities to what STM32Cube does underneath.

The process of adding target platforms has a bit of a steep learning curve. I copied a target with the same MCU and worked from there. But once the target platform is implemented writing code is pretty enjoyable.

See https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os/pull/11648/files for the example of adding a target
See https://rohfle.gitlab.io/posts/2019-10-19-olimex-stm32e407-t... for example ethernet code
Removing Support for the IndieWeb
To me, drinking in a car is a very American thing and I don't think this would be a problem here. If this product works in most of the world but not the US, it would still be better than using plastic cups everywhere.

Although paper cups are already common anyway.
I love it when someone with direct experience on the topic gets a talking to by someone without it.

I mean, what’s does this guy know? It’s just his day to day job.

Having seen a couple of Jobs interviews, it seemed like he was very well informed of all the trade-offs he was asking. He had some idea how all the bits in his project would scale (in various ways - with more users, programmers, parts, etc) even if he didn't like getting his hands dirty with the work of actually doing it.
Yes at the moment this seems to be more aimed at professionals. So chefs have been doing quite interesting things with it. But the price is pretty out there.
Sounds like these new cups would be perfectly useful in cafes in non-car-centric communities.

Of course a drive-through would not be selling them.
But how are those apps finding the DoH server's IP then?

If they use public DoH servers you could just block those at the network level. Andv if they're running their own DoH service on a fixed IP, they could simply run the app itself over that IP and avoid the whole DNS lookup altogether.
While I agree that Israeli politics has an un-heathy amount of representation in the US. And in particular in Congress, calling them subservient is problematic. Believe my I know about the spending they do on congress and what happens to people who run against the policy platform.

And for better or worse, Evangelicals are US citizens and their crazy as religion is not more crazy then other religions. If they want to vote for pro-Israel policy, however misguided, this is their right. Democracy kinda sucks sometimes. These Evangelicals are powerful force in US politics because they successfully vote as a block.

I would also say however that some of the dumbest polices of the US in the middle east are grown on US own heap of intellectual idiocy. The people who wrote the plan for 'The Next American Century' while clearly very pro Israel, were also all former basically Ratheon lobbyist. So blame Israel, blame military-industrial complex, blame the idiot Bush who got convinced by the pathetic argument for those policies.

Israel for 30+ years wants the US to make war on Iran and however much their influence is, its not enough to get that done.
> Because times change, ecosystems change, patterns change, and user bases change. Why isn't React still using `createClass()` and mixins? Why were ES6 classes and hooks invented? Why did JS add arrow functions and `async/await`? Why did C++ add an `auto` keyword? Why is there ever a new version of a language or library? Wasn't enough thought put into them in the first place?

I think the comment you are responding to is a little harsh, but I find this part of your argument disingenuous. JavaScript's syntactic expansion is not definitely a good thing — it isn't all progress.

The rhetorical questions you have presented seem to imply that JavaScript gaining classes is obviously a good thing, whereas I strongly doubt everyone agrees. Did prototypical inheritance work? Yes. Does JavaScript still have prototypical inheritance? Also yes. Is it better to have more choice? Not necessarily. The result of this has been more fragmentation, more documentation, more for beginners to learn, more framework churn, etc.

JavaScript the language was originally invented in just 10 days, and the author himself has explained that aside from the deadline pressure, there are regrettable reasons for the language's inconsistent API.

You may have a misconception of the causes of depression.

I am sorry awful things have happened to you in life, but fortunately, as your example shows, negative external stimuli are not a 1:1 correlation with depression. Unfortunately, positive circumstances are also not a 1:1 correlation with the lack of depression. While stress, trauma, tragedy, loss, adversity may all push some people into depression, there are plenty more who, for no discernible external cause, find themselves in irrational states of despair or other forms of depression, and it is no more solvable through self-motivated resilience than the hallucinations of a more tangible mental illness like schizophrenia could be solved through resilience. Perhaps a useful way of thinking about it if you don't quite understand depression ( though maybe not neurologically accurate ) is to also think of depression as a form of involuntary hallucination. Only instead of an auditory or visual hallucination, the brain is producing an emotional hallucination.

As for the downvotes, it's probably because the tone of your comment, perhaps unintentionally, comes off as skeptical & dismissive of the miserable reality that many people experience first hand.

Finally, & unrelated, it looks like you do some very fascinating work!
I like to listen to MIT OCW lectures while I'm out walking. I've found the best way to do so is to start playing them, then sleep my phone (iPhone), and then press the sleep button again to get the video/audio controls to appear. From there, I can start it playing again, but with just audio, and no risk of tapping other buttons. I assume it also saves some battery life to not have the video actually playing. If I were on Android, I'd definitely look for a solution like this.
Interestingly, I just got finished watching cutscene movies for Hitnan 1 and 2 (thinking about buying Hutman 3) and this kind of story sounds like a mission, sans bodily harm.

I feel like everyone kinda sorta suspects corporations do this sort of thing (lobbyists et al) so while not surprising it is interesting that this got leaked.
IDK for me personally that's the metric I'd use when comparing jobs/careers. From your statements alone, it can mean hundreds of thousands of dollars in difference. That's not something to gloss over.

I very much disagree with this. I agree with the top level comment, remote work is not for me. I understand that some people work well with remote work, but for some reason people who like remote work seem to not understand that some people prefer working in the office. I don't think that these kind of things replace an in person environment, and I'm really looking forward to when I can go back into the office.
Sad DNS Attack
Nice article. One counter point though, OP uses Elm-bridge to generate Elm types from Haskell. I'd advise not to.
Elm-bridge is not maintained anymore, lacks documentation and some useful feature (no phantom types for example). https://github.com/Holmusk/elm-street is probably a more viable solution though I've never tried it!
Doesn't that just feel vindictive though?

DMV can't afford the kind of external auditing that would've caught this. Not with their current budget. Setting aside taxes etc, what do you propose a public service organization should do in these situations other than trust a company to do what they're saying?

"I wish I could say I agonized over all the options at the time and decided vim was the best pedagogical solution, but the reality of the situation was that vi was what I used in college because my father taught me vi"

We dont talk about this much, but many of us hardcore Vi/Emacs users have had this knowledge imparted to us from a mentor. Thats probably why the use of Vi/Emacs is much higher in established tech environments (universities, big dotcoms), where there tends to be a tradition of mentorship than it is elsewhere. If anyone is looking for a slightly off-the-wall masters thesis, I'm fairly certain that you could extrapolate this out into a class divide- perhaps richer/more-established/well-educated users are proportionally more likely to use Vi/Emacs, and in some ways use them as "gatekeeping" tools?
I feel like I'm in the same boat. Am I making poor decisions and rationalizing the resultant pain as depression, or am I depressed and blaming myself over it?
Haha such bullshit. My dad ate tons of chili pepper everyday. He died from a stroke in March this year at 70.
The author's examples of places that aren't considered prestigious throughout, such as Stripe and Nvidia, are ridiculous. The article basically takes companies that are considered prestigious to a smaller subset of harvard undergrads and claims that since a larger subset of the population doesn't find them prestigious they are somehow "underrated" and need to be looked at more.

At the end of the day, prestige comes with money, full stop. In CS, prestige at first might start out as just FAANG, and then later on also include well off start ups like Stripe or various HFT firms / hedge funds since more people start to realize their compensation is equal or higher.
For some reason these high startup times apply also to any shell script I write, any binary I compiler from the command line.

I read somewhere that xcode can bypass that because it's registered as a developer tool. There were some instructions saying that adding terminal.app to the developer tools pane in security preferences would solve my problem but it didn't.

Butchering ocsp by fiddling with /etc/hosts still didn't fully solve the problem: it still takes 200-300ms to start any new binary the first time. But at least it's no longer up to several seconds in case of bad networks.
I'm positive some sadist somewhere in this world has all the software on their OS as a nix expression. I'm also positive that at least one of these people has a fully featured emacs IDE and all the required dependencies as part of that expression.

Totally down to try it if anyone has it.

One thing good about just standalone vim though is how portable it is. I can ssh into any server and fire it up. I also want this for a IDE. I want a console level IDE to fire up on any server I ssh into and if it's not in that server I want to be able to use any package manager to DL it easily.

I can't see any editor/IDE solve the above problem unless the editor becomes the ssh client itself. With that setup in place then my IDE can go anywhere.
The article tackles and refutes this pure field view, but continuous manifolds are no issue, and is required for anything to be extended in space--the transcendental aesthetic refutes the type of discursive space you're presuming, such as that of Leibniz.

Stepping up the voltage with a DC-DC converter for the Magnetron is doable. Having a 2.4GHz 1kW amplifier just to heat food? Yeah doesn't look like a good idea.
I guess I’ve got used to working with both sets of shortcuts but I miss the Vim undo system in other apps.

It’s worth noting that u and ctrl-r don’t operate on an undo stack but on an undo tree.

So if you have a series of edits and undo them all then do something else you can still get back to where you were before.

Use g+ and g- to walk the tree and the Gundo plugin is gives you a nice visual diff interface.

So having a separate shortcut and “stack” is actually a great feature of Vim IMHO.
But don’t you think your desires would grow accordingly? To go back to my “medieval peasant” example, a simple shirt is something we take completely for granted and is arguably “post scarce”. But before industrialization, people would think of a shirt sort of like we think of cars today. It took months of labor to make one, and it cost orders of magnitude more what it costs today. So to those people “I would own a couple of really nice shirts” would have been a reasonable goal to aspire for. They simply could not imagine cars or iphones.

Your second point is an interesting one. I do think we’re gradually moving to a world of artificial scarcity (brand names, luxury goods, bitcoin etc.), plus some things will always be scarce by nature (access to important people, people’s time). So perhaps we’ll just discover that the connection between resource scarcity and human desires is accidental.

I have gotten rid of almost any Apple only tools (OmniGraffle to Figma; OmniFocus, Things3, iA Writer, Ulysses, Alfred App to Emacs+Org, and some more), but there is only only a few left that I can‘t find a replacement for in Linux-land: DEVONthink for managing my thousands of documents (actually I just keep my files in DEVONthink and use the search feature, could end up using just file system), ScanSnap Manager (a driver for my Fujitsu Scanner plus a desktop app for scannning the documents, and Spotlight search that works from within every other app for instantly finding any document.

I guess I need to get a Thinkpad running Linux for slowly finding replacments for my tools, and migrate not within weeks, but spreading my migration process over months.

My most essential tool is Emacs / Org and Lisp, Python plus the terminal with some shell scripting for automating all my workflows.

Yes, I will miss the smoothness that comes from very tight integration of hardware and services, but I absolutely hate the path that Apple is on, slowly taking all freedom from its users, until macOS is as closed as iOS. This is against every conviction I have as a citizen for whose freedom it is essential to have control over the machine that enables me to connect to the world and do my work. We are no toddlers, Apple does not need to put us in a walled garden, a promised land without any malware and danger (that‘s the promise, but in reality they want to control every aspect of their ecosystem, like an emperor that wants to tax every aspect of acting and movement in his land).

Why, when we reading article about leaked information, why don't we get to see original leaked document, and only presented with the conclusions of the author. I'd like to make my own conclusions.

As a non-virologist, it's nearly impossible to determine who is wearing the tin foil hats. I've read five or six different but equally outlandish origin theories and convoluted Beautiful Mind / Minority Report threads about Covid in the last 30 minutes and everyone seems to be circlejerking about their own wild theories.

How can I, someone entirely outside the domain, begin to filter what is credible and what is nonsense?
Given the brittleness there should be at least a single configuration that works. I believe that tikhonj is right in the sense that nix can capture this configuration. Nix is not required but I can see how it can help.

I think the "Rule of Goats" applies to Taibbi w/r/t misogyny, but that's not really my problem with him; it's that he's a shoddy, incurious reporter that doesn't understand the technical details of what he writes about.

What he does that people appreciate is create a fun-to-read, clear narrative about complicated subject, usually one in which there's a super-clear bad guy and good guy. You spend so much of your time on HN pushing back on good-guy/bad-guy narratives, I'm confident you can see what's crazymaking about someone whose entire shtick is built on doing that to make a buck.

> operate the US like a puppet state. The idea that jews secretly control the peoples of the world is a trope from nazi propaganda

Woah now this is much further than anyone in this thread has claimed or stated. Fear of social ostracization is not reason enough to avoid discussing the truth. Just pointing out the truth that jews form a "key voting block" and lobbyist group is not an endorsement of any more encompassing and ungrounded theory or judgment against them.

It is bigoted and prejudicial to treat jews differently from christians and muslims, period point blank.
Please elaborate because I strongly disagree with you.

Thanks, that's a fascinating insight into the roots of that "forever" feeling.

As for manipulation & programming, I used to be an adjunct professor teaching a topic related to persuasion. I always had a few exercises where I'd show a slide with 10 related words for 10 seconds and ask the students, without writing them down, to remember as many as they could. Then I would go through a few, asking them to close their eyes, and I'd repeat a few words, asking them to raise their hands if they remembered one word, then another. Then I would ask them if they remembered an 11th related word, one that was not on the original list. Cognitive priming with the first 10 words usually produced a 50% response of students saying they remembered the word that wasn't even there. It would always get a good laugh. I hope it also left a lasting impression.
Right, my point is that if you count it as 0% it is significantly better than money, and even with it at 0% the money is still extremely good.
A solution would be allowing the user to turn this off. And more importantly, to allow firewall apps to manage all network traffic instead of excepting apple's.
And then you need to do it again for every update you receive and create a new signature etc.
