Journalists aren't random people who have "heard it from a guy who heard it from a guy". They do reporting: they call people, develop sources, and work with fact checkers. That doesn't make them right all the time, or mean you should read them uncritically. But, of course, the bullshit meme is that you shouldn't take them seriously at all. It's premised on holding journalists to a standard we don't hold doctors to, let alone software developers.
> rhinoviruses seldom kill 0.1% of the population

But there's the rub: is this really true? Rhinoviruses seem to be a major precursor to e.g. strokes, and I'm pretty sure more than 0.1 percent of people die of strokes. (Not to mention heart disease.)

I think the SVG with prefers media queries is not covering all cases, for example Chrome Anonymous dark “theme” and other user selected “themes” are impossible to check how they paint the background of the favicon area. So..the perfect solution in my view is still somewhere out there..

I haven't thought of pricing, but I'd like to keep it affordable. The hardware module can be configured to permanently bond to the raspberry pi - meaning once the raspberry pi dies, the module is useless (proper HSM).

If not configured to bond, it would be less secure, but depends on what the person wants I guess. Making it bond to the raspberry pi requires that I physically modify the module before I send it out.

The module will run off the replaceable battery and also protects itself from power fluctuations/brownouts, etc. (it slides in whenever needing to be replaced) - and estimate that it will last about 3 years before needing to be replaced.
Cool stuff. There seems to be some cool improvement every several months.

I'm excited for GATs to land so we can have true async trait methods. The async story in Rust has come a long way, but there's still a lot to be improved.
The truth is, China do not want to control Taiwan, and China do not want to lose Taiwan. Sounds contradict but because it is. Let's take Hong Kong for example, Hong Kong has changed China's view on this issue completely. Hong Kong would be a much better asset for China if it is independent but stay Chinese. China does not need another city. The problem is that even though Hong Kong is Chinese, the movement of seeking independence (I am sure you can find how some parliament members' display of 'fuck China' during inauguration would upset Chinese government) has lead to a stage, where Chinese government would be very worries if they don't have the control of Hong Kong. Now they are looking at this 'one country two systems' differently, because one party will not respect 'one country' and the other party will not respect 'two systems'. The same is Taiwan. One option is to have a friendly state, it is not going to happy; the other option is to have a independent state, China will not allow it to happen. Taking Taiwan does not really benefit China, but from the government's eye, if the relationship don't change, and Taiwan declare independence in one way or the other, China will be forced to react or suffer the chain reaction of the result of it.
For most personally types, this zero-contact, zero-social-media seems to work best.
Speaking of multi-tasking, I remember writing code that hijacked timer interrupt to surreptitiously perform background tasks. I would also hijack interrupt 9 (I think) to capture keyboard so that I would pop up a small text mode window to display the current state/status when you clicked the magic key combo (ctrl+shift+9 for example). The dialog would vanish and background restored as soon as the keys were let go. Miss that time. The size of my binary was a little over 1K (written in assembler).
It's not even remotely exploitable, which from the perspective of the fact that the vast majority of computers are owned and used by a single-user, makes it a very low to zero risk.

The stakes are very different for disclosing a remotely exploitable vuln.

A Security Key is a physical object. For example here are some reviews by tech press people:

https://www.zdnet.com/article/best-security-key/

https://www.wired.co.uk/article/best-security-keys

Or here's an actual expert writing about them a few years ago if you suspect "tech press people" are worthless:

https://www.imperialviolet.org/2018/03/27/webauthn.html

Or, more practically, if you have a nice phone, try visiting it on that. If it's a relatively modern iPhone or high end Android with a touch sensor running the current OS version you can use that.

Since you mentioned Mac keychain, if your Mac has TouchID that will work on the current OS (in Safari at least) too. Some Windows PCs with fingerprint sensors likewise.
This point I'm not so sure about:

Personally, I've been looking at setting up an RPI4 based cluster and was thinking of getting one of those.

Though ideally, I'd probably go with something that can remotely power on/off any given RPI4

eg Shoot The Other Node In The Head (STONITH) for HA and testing, etc.

Before taking algos/data structures I did terrible on whiteboards. After, I do well. From this experience, they seem reasonable indicators of a cs grads intelligence.
I doubt I am too much better of a software engineer in my day to day job, but I do think this toolkit does unlock a second disperate level of engineering ability, to code core algos for novel software.

I just have a problem suggesting learning this one set of skills really boosts my fluid intelligence. Im probably just as intelligent as I was before.

But I do get the cooralating signal as a cheap, low false positive approach to selecting good candidates.
(I work at Notion)

One of the apps you cited, JetBrains IDEs, provide extensive predictive hints and documentation in menus that automatically open after any character is typed. I think the difference between the Notion predictive menus and the JetBrain ones is an issue of performance, rather than concept.

That isn’t to say the slash menu isn’t annoying - we have a lot of work to do!

Can you point me to a reputable source that definitively claims (or ever claimed) that the Big Bang happened beyond doubt?

I don't think the problem is with any hubris in science. It is the general population that is the problem. Most people will completely disregard a statement which has any qualifiers or accept it as gospel truth (anything with "evidence suggests..." will either be taken as gospel or completely disregarded). Very few people have the ability to understand and appreciate the nuance in a scientifically correct statement.

I agree that this is what the author meant. But is it a true statement? With cookie-based auth, the user can't (except for digging deep into the settings / dev tools) make the browser stop sending a particular cookie either, but the server (or script) can be programmed to ask the browser to remove a specific cookie. Is the same not true for basic auth, i.e., is there no response header the server can send that results in the browser ceasing to include the basic auth creds thereafter?
> If that were the case, then how about if the .org registry were turned over to a non-profit that was solely and strictly dedicated to running the registry responsibly and affordably? Is creating such a non-profit feasible? Could it survive over the long term?

.de is run by a non-profit and has been since 1996. Before that it had been run by researchers of the University of Karlsruhe. Until a few years ago, .de was the largest ccTLD and the second largest TLD overall.

This should not be here. Flagging is overkill but requiring an address for a business is also a requirement for starting a business so why not for Google? Nothing at all to do with Yelp or extortion.

I agree that Google should allow addressless businesses as it biases their search but they are not at all doing the same thing as Yelp.
Saudi Aramco, Cognite Form New AI IoT SaaS JV (Middle East AI News)
Short answer is - Airdrop is a protocol for setting up ad-hoc wifi networks via Bluetooth LE. If it went over ethernet it wouldn't be airdrop.

Long answer:

Airdrop does discovery via bluetooth. To send a file, the two devices connect via bluetooth to negotiate the details of a new ad-hoc wifi connection, which they then create, connect to, and use for the transfer.

The discovery does not rely on a shared network, and once connected, the devices never 'discuss' whether they already share a network, so it's WIFI or nothing.

This gives some security guarantees that wouldn't exist otherwise. EG: Airdrop won't go through Starbucks' WIFI, even if both the sender & receiver are connected to it. Honestly I'm not sure how important those guarantees are -- but they're there.

I don't think there's a fundamental barrier stopping Apple from:

1. Having devices advertise an 'airdrop-box' through Bonjour as well as though bluetooth LE,

2. Including these entires in the Airdrop UI

3. De-duping entries where it figures out that a network device is the same as a bluetooth device.

4. Running same-network transfers through SMB rather than using [what they currently call] Airdrop to negotiate an ad-hoc WIFI network.

...but they haven't done so.

I don't know but my money is on inequality. All the countries with high levels of inequality have this problem.

For example Eastern European countries generally have moderate to low inequality levels and low GDP per capita. South American countries have high to verify high inequality and comparable GDPs per capita. Eastern Europe is much safer statistically than South America.

Ignore this at your own peril...

it's supposed to be 180px, but 192px is close enough

The compromise you're willing to accept to save yourself the 2 minutes necessary to make a second file shouldn't really be a recommendation for others. Plenty of icons will end up with compression artefacts if you don't make a specific 180px version properly. Browsers and OSes are terrible at image scaling.

It's a mess because the laws vary not only between states, but counties and even cities over if and when you can purchase alcohol.

The USPS doesn't ship alcohol, and UPS/Fedex requires you to be a licensed distributor. Most of that business is shipping to stores/restaurants though. Wineries and microbreweries are starting to do home shipments, but if and how much still varies by where you live.

There might be some local couriers willing to buy and deliver booze to you, but they're probably doing it at their own risk.
For the use being discussed (teaching beginners), you really need 9 stones, and it needs to work well. 7 stones is getting close though. I'll take a look at those games.

Why WTF ?

You are reading something I did not write. I am not obsessed with the nonblocking mantra. Blocking is not inherently bad. Multi-processus is also a perfectly valid concurrency model.

Nor am I obsessing about being ultra performant to achieve the revered C10K when I don't need to or can get around it. That was my point.

Not everybody is Facebook or Netflix. For the vast majority of small and medium enterprises, it faster, simpler, safer (and possibly cheaper) to quickly develop a blocking program without thread and spawn multiple processes.
Six Serious Dangers of Artificial Intelligence
It's been possible for a long time to use canvas to generate an image that can be transferred into the favicon, essentially using javascript to create a dynamic/animated favicon.
In my mind, of course the server doesn't know if you took a cookie you received from the previous instance of your browser and placed it into the next instance of your browser, because the act of closing your browser doesn't call every server saying "don't consider this cookie valid ever again," the act of closing your browser just deletes cookies that have a lifetime of 0 (but does not delete cookies with a nonzero lifetime, IIRC).
Thank you for putting this eloquently. It's very popular to just hate technical interviews which involve white boarding.
This looks great!

Small nitpick about the wording of this:

"Notifications permission has been blocked as the user has dismissed the permission prompt several times. This can be reset in Page Info which can be accessed by clicking the lock icon next to the URL."

I have Safari set to not allow websites to ask for notification privileges at all and did not see a single prompt. And I don't think you can toggle it from the lock icon.
This honestly does not come as a surprise.

It's the same story - an unsuspecting update adds [ads|crypto|rewards|suggestions], users complain, and they apologize for having it enabled by default, and point out that to an option to turn it off, 10 clicks under.

Rinse and repeat.

Just use Firefox, and at this point the Chromium Edge probably takes things more seriously (including privacy) compared to the joke that Brave is.

I'm not sure that's a good idea at all for training, though it is a really neat trick.

Ask HN: Do you know of startup ideas that have failed multiple times?
It's faster than multiple threads even on a single core. There are syscalls involved to wait, and to wake up. That doesn't matter for I/O, since syscalls are involved anyway, but it does for mutexes and condition variables. With async, handing off control to one or more other tasks is cheap (tokio around 100 ns), for threads it's more expensive (2-3 us).

And of course with threads it's harder to actually run single-core, you need to dedicated a specific core which brings operational complexity.
