> i.e. you park where you can

That would indicate there's just too many cars and we should be prioritising public transport improvements.

> outside of London public transport is extremely expensive, very very unreliable

100% agree - it's always a shock when I go up north and have to use public transport - but that's why we need to divert money from the road and car subsidy schemes into massive public transport improvements.

If you want concrete examples of how the partial non-repudiation property provided by DKIM is not "nothing", you have to look no further than the examples provided in OP.
IBM z/OS has an interesting feature: AT-TLS (Application Transparent TLS). An app uses the OS sockets API to create plaintext sockets, and the OS adds TLS to them (based on policies configured by the sysadmin) transparent to the application. (There are IOCTLs that apps can call to discover this is going on, turn it on/off, configure it, etc, but the whole idea is you can add TLS support to some legacy app without needing any code changes, so adding those IOCTL calls to your app is totally optional.)

In some parallel universe, TLS would have been part of TCP not a separate protocol and the Berkeley sockets implementation in the OS kernel would handle all encryption, certificate validation, etc, on behalf of applications. AT-TLS is a bit like visiting that parallel universe

Because on that Zoom call, Ned Steabler and Abraham Amiyah’s threatened the two withholding members, called them racists, and read the names of their children’s schools. Shortly after one of them changed their vote.

Yes, the two reversed their decision and certified with a request for an audit... but does that sound like good evidence for your point?

Regardless of how anyone feels about election fraud, I’m pretty sure the people doxing children are not doing the right thing.

But why would you do damage? Since NK could never possibly win a "damage" war with the US- disabling the US ability to retaliate or defend itself- the purpose of an attack by a country like NK can only be that of preventing further attacks or retaliations. And inflicting serious damage on the first shot is ensuring that such retaliation will happen.

What NK needs is to make clear that the cost of attacking it can be unsustainably high, while provoking the least possible response.
Many states have already created PMP (Prescription Monitoring Program) databases where all controlled scripts for a given patient are recorded. A pharmacist can pull up a patients record to see if they feel comfortable filling a controlled script.

Seems like a better solution to me than giving a law enforcement agency access to a patients medical records.
The history hasn’t really been removed; it’s just not being indexed from the main search box. And yeah, there’s an argument to be made that if there are no links to a thing that’s basically the same as that thing not existing and I do buy into that argument.

But in this case, it seems to me like it’s as likely to be a mistake as anything else, seeing as the old pages themselves are still there and haven’t been removed, and the search functionality has only been missing them for less than a day (according to the linked article)

To me, it seems more likely that some overenthusiastic webdev re-implemented the site’s search functionality and accidentally missed indexing a bunch of older documents in the CMS. I’d be inclined to report the issue to Sony and then maybe give it another couple days for the mistake to be noticed and fixed, before really sounding the alarm.

Maybe you find it easy because you don't see the subtleties. The answer to reverting the last commit for example can't really be that simple because it depends on what the user really wants to do. Do you want to keep the changes in staging? Reset the index but keep the changes in your working copy? Or reset the files to their state at the previous commit?
This is a perfect example. Talked about by the forces that enacted it as early as 2010, the Brexit referendum happens in 2016, and leaving the EU has been gradually happening since then.

London has added a lot of free/cheap charging points but they're not necessarily in convenient places for where people live. I think you can get a subsidy for adding a fast charger to your house but for people in flats, that's probably not an option (and also doesn't help if you have to park 300m away because there's just no room any more.)

In the field of electricity generation, sure. Technology is there, apart from storage technology.

But, given still higher costs and range anxiety, it will be very difficult to convince most consumers to buy electric cars. It will be most probably only generational shift: people born before ~1990 will still buy petrol cars till they die out, and younger generations will progressively shift, having different habits. It will take whole century to fully switch to electric vehicles in developed countries - and lack of reliable electric grid will make it in places like Africa even slower.

An even harder, and even larger part of the story is industrial heat (needs to be very reliable and cheap), and residential heating (needs to be very, very cheap and available in large volumes). No good non-fossil solutions here exist.
This comment perfectly epitomises the 'climate crisis' extinction rebellion Greta Thunberg school of response to climate issues.

Firstly - any response to climate change that does not include China and really India and other emerging economies too is more or less useless. Why should we deny such countries the benefits of full industrialisation?

Secondly - while in some respects you are correct, looking at CO2 numbers some kind of drastic action seems to be required, it also leaves unanswered the question of 'at what cost'. During the covid19 situation we've seen the impact of shutting down parts of the economy on GDP. That naturally always translates into deaths, and the kind of economic impact such drastic action would entail would likely run into millions of deaths, many of them far away in poorer nations receiving less govt aid (as with covid!)

I think the whole 'nothing is enough the world will end!!' mentality does nothing but put those who are inclined to care into a state of deep depression and anxiety and those who are inclined to deny climate change into a better position to argue that the other side are being ridiculous. It does NOT help.

The correct approach is a practical middle ground where we try to do what we can.

In any case this govt response does somewhat epitomise the 'climate hysterics' mentality in that it is hugely impractical, ignores many questions of trade-offs and impact as if there were none to be answered and is unilateral enough to be meaningless in the wider global context.

Keep in mind that if one country decides to take drastic action which tanks its economy, do you think other countries are likely to follow suit or rather elect govts that entirely unwind all and any climate action?

A fair point. But if they can't have a cliff today there isn't any reason to think they can have a cliff in 2030. If they were serious could put a quota in place today and start tightening it, or a quota and a timeline for tightening it. Maybe they are already doing that, I don't know.

Announcing radical change in a different government's term is standard political theatrics. All that matters is the actions they take now.

Ask HN: What would you do with your last days?
My father is dieing. He has terminal lung cancer and had undiagnosed symptoms for months. That meant his quality of life was pretty bad. Thanks to palliative chemo and radiation he has a few months ahead that should see him temporarily feeling much better.

With the days he is not recovering from chemo he gardens and cleans up the house. It made me wonder what would I do in his shoes?

This last little bit of life, while difficult, is bringing him a lot of joy. Initially I thought it seemed like a waste of precious little time. But he gets to experience a little of the retirement he was only a year away from and it means a lot to him.

Now I'm trying to figure out how you measure a good use of your time. Is it really so important to invest so much time and effort in a vocation? Is it just as valid to find things that make us happy?

Fair enough. I probably interpreted this response wrongly.

A second Trump term would have seen the US leaving NATO. This would leave the EU relatively defenceless because only France has a truly independent nuclear deterrent - the UK's deterrent is effectively part of the US arsenal - and the EU has very few conventional forces of its own.

But Putin's plan appears to be to destabilise the EU from within by promoting extremist far-right governments with more or less obvious Russian influence and anti-EU sentiments.

See also Brexit, Poland, Hungary, and the Ukraine, and the - so far - less effective far right movements being promoted in France, Italy, Portugal, and so on.

This is much cheaper and more effective than sending in the tanks. You can promote regime change with a few social media troll factories and by buying or otherwise persuading local politicians.

It's not a coincidence that the threat of a hypothetical EU army was one of the main pro-Brexit talking points sold to British racists, or that significant funding for Brexit came from Russia.

As for goals - for Russia it's partly about revenge, and partly about the destruction of Western liberal values. Putin has said as much in public on a number of occasions.
It depends on what you mean by "out of touch they are their audience". They're pretty in touch with how the money is being spent.
I do. The local feudal lords were able to treat anyone below them however they wanted and could take bribes without any threat from above so long as they provided the number of soldiers and gold asked.

At the risk of being pedantic, I think it is you who doesn’t understand the word corrupt. The US bankrupting nations it doesn’t disagree with is within the system of rules at play and isn’t corrupt even if it is morally wrong.
The weird thing for me is that modern Bluetooth standards provide enough bandwidth to stream uncompressed PCM in both directions, several times over, but your new phone will still use lossy compression with your new headphones because reasons.

Indeed. It's normal that you get only a small portion, or even none at all of the amount of shares you requested if there is a lot of interest (in Tech there normally is). Maybe you are more lucky if you are a customer of the bank preparing the IPO, or extremely wealthy.

What's the rationale for making files modules? Modules being namespaces, and namespaces being collections, it's not desirable to have a file being a (large) collection of code.

The feature that gives mixed feelings to the author (Re-exporting Imports) is indeed a workaround to this; since each file would externally generate one extra namespacing level, one reexports data structures in order to remove that level.

This is odd, as it's essentially boilerplate by design. Am I missing something?
So if something does not provide a perfect guarantee, it's "nothing"? You realize that handwritten signatures on a paper contract do not provide a perfect guarantee either? Signatures can be forged. And the paper is not going to remain in perfect condition forever, at some point in the future the paper is going to decay. Does that mean we can never know anything about anything? No. Of course we can have evidence about events which occurred in the world, even if the evidence doesn't provide a 100% guarantee of something, indefinitely. For example, a handwritten signature on a paper can be imperfect evidence that the contract took place, or a DKIM signature on an email can be imperfect evidence that the email is not a forgery.
>You're not going to have ordinary North Koreans head for the hills and turn into partisan guerrillas fighting for Juche.

Maybe, but they might be willing to fight invaders. The Korean War that killed 2-3 million civilians doesn't make the US seem like the good guy. The US will be seen as imperialist invaders by the ordinary citizen of the DPRK.
Oh, China absolutely wants to control/exert influence in NK, I just don't see them being at all interested in military takeover of the country -- except perhaps if it falls into the "wrong" hands, in which case they might invade to install a compliant regime and then GTFO (see also: Korean War).
There are many places where public transport simply isn't practical. I also do not see how investment is going to fix a lot of the issues - for example in my home town in the SW of England (rural area), the already highly subsidised + regulated bus service was consistently late and unreliable. Not to mention didn't actually go to many places in the local area.

Perhaps increased public transportation is part of the issue but if you consider the scale of the issue and the numbers involved not to mention the fact you're now entirely privileging rich people with off-street parking (class/economic issues there) who CAN get electric cars, and do all of this in 9 years (or maybe 19 let's say if people are buying 2nd hand) while bankrupting every single (non-electric) car-related industry shortly after one of the biggest economic shocks of the modern era AND you still need to provide considerably more infrastructure no matter how you slice the pie it's still equally as huge a logistical challenge.
The first time a government announced they would take action but not for a decade, it signalled action would be taken. This is the 1000th time a government has said "no action today but maybe in a decade". That signals no action. That's the same signal markets have been given for several decades now.

I am happy to admit this is a complex issue, one that needs a global solution, an expensive one, maybe an unsolvable one.

But we also have to admit that so far no action has been taken. And this isn't action either.

That's what I'm asking for here: let's all be honest for this thread and admit this is worthless and we're running out of time and we either need to make hard choices OR admit we're not going to fix it...
3D accel is not driven by userspace libraries. libGL (and others) provide a stable userspace interface, which, under the covers, communicates with a kernel driver. Think of it in a similar way as how libc provides userspace interfaces (like open(), read(), write(), close()) that translates to kernel syscalls to get the work done.

Obviously OpenGL is a lot more complex than the syscall example I gave, but the principle is similar.

The only thing that has a chance of working is thinking about it a bit differently - governments should heavily subsidize building solar energy plants. On the scale of "much more than we need". Then they should also heavily subsidize carbon capture and possibly also tech to turn it into liquid fuels again.

Getting petrol cars off the road is just not going to happen on the time scale it's needed. If the 10 years until the ban would be spent building enough solar, carbon capture and fuel generation, we'd be in a much better state. We'd literally have a knob that controls the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.
Why does China get a free pass? It's the worlds largest miner of coal and is building many new coal fired power stations. For instance. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-04-28/riozim-se... and https://www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-will-china-build-hundre...

Must not have looked very hard. PA, NV, WI, MT, GA, and others and others all changed their rules about curing, harvesting, signatures required, naked ballots allowed. Changes per state. In PA the big deal is that the Gov did this unilaterally, but the PA constitution clearly defines that voting laws are by legislature only, the gov did this under emergency powers.

There is a limited amount of current available from the electrical substations that serve any given area (and thus any given street), you can't just magic up enough current to be able to charge vastly more electric cars, it requires massive infrastructural change.

All the existing street chargers I've seen (there's a couple up the road from me) are like 1 or 2 here + there. Probably no more than 1 per thousand parking spot (might even be being generous there).

You'd have to install these chargers (which appear to require a fair bit of work to install) at every single parking spot in the UK to make it practical. Which is not really practical even if we had the money to do it...
