Ask HN: How do you log time?
Recently I've struggled to find a way to keep track of what I'm working on in the moment, since I'm often handling queries from people walking into my office. So I'm curious how HN handles it.
This is a great point, getting a checklist of your problems to fix and a way to project manage certain pieces of the process isn’t solving the real problem. Also many of these tools don’t give you great insight into where you stand going into your audit or in between your annual audits.

A newer tool that I’ve heard great feedback on is Drata. They’re more focused on automation and continuous evidence collection.
Heh! Memories! RM Networks ~1998/1999 when I was in School... You would login and then you got their interface popup saying you were over your space allowance and clear files or you can't login...

I did this exact same trick (passed network login though) to get out of it! Although, mine was to go to c:\windows, type . then right click explorer.exe and click open!
I find it meaningful that all items (currently) displayed at https://www.buyforlife.com/ are typical outdoor use, high-quality, representative for a certain kind of living.

This kind of living has pros and cons, but I guess not everybody wants to live like that. For instance, some people would prefer to have some shitty but portable kitchenware instead of expensive, bulky and representative "professional" units.

This is a bit of "urban" lifestyle against "suburbia" lifestyle, or "downshifter" lifestyle, or "countryside" lifestyle.

For instance, I am a bit aware of the "zero waste" community. These people would probably buy a single macbook (because it is stylish and looks as if you had taste, not neccessarily because it is high quality), but no kitchen device at all, because such devices express the "wrong" style of life. Similar arguments could probably be made about some certain kind of hacker culture. People buying hoodies and thinkpads because it is "in vogue".

This is probably the main reason why just another review page won't take off: The products are not "in vogue".

Just my two cents. Very emotional, not objective at all.
This is true for all 2FA methods but not for FIDO security keys. With FIDO, the hostname of the site you're browsing is signed in the assertion, therefore the attacker -even with automation- can't reuse it on the target site.

This is why FIDO claims protection against phishing.

What the author says is that the attacker, when you're using a FIDO security key, can simply say it's not working and force the user to switch to a different 2FA method, therefore in the end phishing the user.
Sooner or later we may have something like "Content Centric Networking"

It does not matter where (the address) we download the content from. We only need a hash find the content and to verify the content comes from the "original" source and is therefore authentic.

If we are retrieving public information, then the only data that actually needs to travel over a secure channel is the signed hash of the content.

Content publishers could publish their public keys out of band, e.g., in the newspaper.

If one isn't using the tools available from the OS or even the OS regularly, it's tough to know that they are there. I picked on cron/syslog/apt as there aren't too many times I see them used on server fleets these days. That's coming from 10 years working in both SRE/systems and Software Eng roles on fleets of 1k+ servers both in and out of clouds. It's really diffiult to convince new engineers that even having a persistent process is a good idea vs. using an orchestration service.

As for the syslog/cron/apt examples I'll share some more detail below.

- Syslog Isn't used as it's pretty straightforward to pull in ones favorite language specific log library, combined with ones favorite log tool of choice and be off to the races.

- Cron doesn't get used as it can only easily handle scheduling on a specific host. Whereas there are a plethora of distributed schedulers which will happily run commands on any number of hosts.

- Apt/yum don't get used as folks want to have their builds to be repeatable, and rely on software built in via their dependency management system of choice and deployed via fat statically linked binary.
Either you marry someone, find an employer happy to sponsor you or buy a residency - the cheapest is Latvia at 300k$ (you invest in real estate). Once you spend 5 years in the country you can become a citizen and you can move wherever you want in EU or get a job without visa sponsorship.

It's generally easier than going EU -> US, from my peers' experience.
While you may be right that the total amount of mercury is not an issue relative to other sources, allergies to thiomersal are a real thing. Here's a page on it: https://dermnetnz.org/topics/thiomersal-allergy/

Personally, I eventually discovered that my terrible problems with wearing contact lenses in the 1990's were caused by the thiomersal used as a preservative in the saline solution I was using. Given my known and tested reaction to having it in my eyes and on my skin, I would be very reluctant to have an injection that contained it.
It has been, I had a log device fail and was able to import the pool just fine. Had to do it manually though because the automated scripts at boot didn't like it which is a fine default since erroring out by default when something is fishy is a good idea.
If I am running code on your site as another user, I don’t really need to steal you auth token. But that is true. Which is why browsers should expand support for authentication to provide things like public key authentication, credentials/personas storage, etc. At the very least, an API to store auth tokens (and just auth tokens). Better yet, a standard login UI for logging into any given website. Even better, public key auth so that instead of logging in by typing in a username and password, you would select which persona you use from a drop down and passwords aren’t a thing. Of course that would require a robust and secure mechanism for syncing the personas/keychains across different devices and browsers.

You really don't understand composition as it related to hooks, sorry, it's not condescension, you are arm-chairing something and it's obvious. I could provide a complex example for you and then re-write it in your example, and you'd see how hooks is far more elegant, and maybe I will, but to be honest there's a million examples on the web.

And algebraic effects are a FP concept, go look at OCaml which has been pioneering them, so your appeal to FP purity doesn't even hold.
I always give an honest answer. Often I am also learning about them from the interview. Because, after all you are interviewing them as well. You’re NOT sure you want to work there yet :)

My first job I was curious because they were located in a college town, not a big city, and lots of friends worked there. The company had a long history > 100 years (which I was learning about on the interview). That long engineering legacy was another reason I appreciated before accepting the offer.

My last job, while I was more senior, I reached out to them and said in my email why I might want to work there. But that was just my initial sense. I also spent time learning about the people and the company and my role. I was asking them “why do you want me” in the same way I was asking “why do I want them”.
> In HN, I've been seeing way more comments supporting the "freedom of speech" for those who stormed the Capitol

In HN, I've seen people saying that the concept of free speech is outdated and that societies that support it are doomed to failure.

> While I don't necessarily agree [on the importance of freedom of speech]

This doesn't quite reach as far as the example I gave, but it is representative of what at the very least half of of comments in HN are like, when the subject is free speech. I always find it a little ironic.

> That might tell more about what sites I visit, but whatever

Given the difference of experiences, it might just be biases, including selection bias. And yes, I include myself in that statement, though I try to take note of comments beside mine defending freedom of speech, if nothing else just so I don't lose hope.
As per theverge article, they did nothing when anti-semitic memes and jokes were being posted by their employees.

So what can we take away from this? Github's "professional conduct at workplace" and "diversity" is complete farce.

I'm ready to move to bitbucket after this incident. When you promote people who share hatred, this means the company at the top probably also shares the same vision.

This is a PR disaster for github and there is NO WAY I can support github going forward.

Once again, somebody has flagged every single criticisms of Github's original decision. Is this Github doing damage control? I'm going to move our team completely off github now.

Working perfectly fine for me. Please don't post outage reports here unless they are of some interest like having large scope or long duration.

As any HN reader should know - these are large scale globally distributed systems. Also keep in mind that posting about outages can reveal information on your location (because most systems are distributed) as was seen in a recent item on HN about a Cloudflare outage where everyone posting could be tied to a single ISP in Chicago.

Sure, it’s just you do not use ‘laptop abilities’ too much in such scenario compared to fully mobile setup. That’s why you have no need for many mobile requirements that only laptop can deliver.
You're right but if a company can convince consumers that they've done it once, they're surely able to do it again. Unfortunately, technology changes too quickly for that to work in many cases.
A similar thing happened with Russian pilots who were held captive in Afghanistan in the 90s. They all escaped with their plane after being held captive for a year: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airstan_incident

——-

On each trip the crew would be guarded by six Taliban guards but on 16 August 1996, half of the guards left the crew for afternoon prayers. Seizing the opportunity, the Russians overpowered the remaining guards and the pilot was able to start one engine from the auxiliary power unit (itself started with a battery)

What is the free speech alternative to Cloudflare for DDOS protection? Activist hackers are everywhere today and have no qualms attacking Parler or others they disagree with. Culturally, many in the younger generation of hackers are anti free speech, or at least against it for their political adversaries. Twitter still hasn’t banned the one archiving locations of Parler users from EXIF data in photos. And with utilities like AWS deplatforming paying customers now, I imagine Cloudflare can’t be relied on either.

You're going to need to come to grips with figurative language if you ever want to communicate effectively. It's a large part of discourse.
No - if your goal is helping people then knowing the recipient is a hoarder may make it questionable whether you are meeting your goal. If your goal is getting rid of stuff then knowing about the recipient doesn't change whether you are achieving it.
Thought experiment: there are two men standing in a room. One holds a loaded gun aimed at the other’s chest, his finger on the trigger. He tells the other man to bite off all his fingers or die.

The man on the other end of the gun certainly has a choice, and a negotiating position—they just aren’t very good ones, through no fault of his own.

I personally would prefer to live in a society where those with power don’t have moral carte blanche to treat those without power as badly as they like, as long as the unfortunates are technically given choices and/or some articulable market forces can reasonably be said to have been causal contributors to the current configuration of their reality. But I guess a lot of people, particularly people used to having power, may not agree with my preference.

As a child I took math books to bed with me.

I only got a single question wrong on the math portion of the SAT, and frankly SAT math is extremely easy. I just wasn't taking it seriously enough.

I took Calculus my first semester and scored over 98 on every test. No one else in the class scored above 80 on any of the tests. The teacher was dumbfounded.

I, of course, have a degree in mathematics... Undergrad math was... boring.

The only reason I didn't continue down the path of high level math is because it isn't profitable. It is also hell on the mind. Few understand that but it is very easy to get lost in a world of math if you are good enough at it. It consumes your entire mind. It is somewhat beautiful in that way, but doesn't lead to one become very balanced as an individual.

Cooperation is for pussies. Those who make the biggest difference in history are those who give zero shits about anyone else and devote their lives to furthering what they pursue. Very few teams can hold a candle to a dedicated prodigy.

There are these things called books. There are tons of them. They hold far more useful information that can be absorbed very rapidly compared to talking to people. Communicating with people live is... slow... tedious... and unrewarding.
> Every patent that relies on another patent lists what those are. For this very reason.

That’s not the reason for the list of references in a patent. The reason for the list is to identify relevant prior inventions that may be useful to understanding the invention as well as references that the examiner considered during prosecution. The references don’t mean that the patent would infringe those prior inventions.
somebody is flagging all the comments that is criticizing github's original decision to side with those who were offended by someone worrying about Nazis who were present at the rallies.

yet the bottom line is that Github was okay with its workers posting anti-semitic memes and there is a significant chunk of people on HN that backs this.

I am beyond disappointed in both Github and HN.
That's what I meant. Speed of light is 300,000,000 m/s. Divide by 3Ghz (3,000,000,000 clock/s) and you get 10 cm/clock. Wave propagation in an actual conductor is slower still.

We’ve been a part of our local buy nothing group for a couple of years. It’s been really great. We had some neighbors we met in 2019 to our Christmas Party that year.

I’ve also been able to get rid of a bunch of stuff I don’t use, and we’ve received all kinds of things, including a Laptop and power tools.

I’ve found one of the most empowering things about giving stuff away is I’m free from trying to figure out if I’m getting a fair price for selling something, or if it’s going to “the right person”. No strings giving is really nice.
I said neither of those things.

> I don't think the people who disagree with me, on this specific point, are well reasoned and are infact misled by deliberate misinformation campaigns and conspiracy theories.

If you're unwilling to see the people who disagree with you as equally intelligent, and equally capable of reasoned decisions, then what can I possibly say to change your mind? And how can you tell me that others of equal mental capacity are misled, while you yourself are untouched by misinformation? If that's what you claim, your hubris is impressive.

You've effectively insulated yourself from any counterargument.

In the chance you're willing to consider that I'm not misled, this is why I'm skeptical of the vaccine. mRNA vaccines are an extremely new technology, and very different from any previous type of vaccine; there has been no time for extensive testing, and we don't know the long-term side effects.

> Given the novel nature of the mechanism of action of RNA vaccines, and their drug delivery vehicles, little is known about the medium and longer-term side effects....Up until December 2020, no mRNA vaccine, drug, or technology platform, had ever been approved for use in humans, and before 2020, mRNA was only considered a theoretical or experimental candidate for use in humans.

[0] https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=RNA_vaccine&oldid... The wikipedia article about mRNA has been altered a lot in the past month, and is now much more focused on COVID-19. Last time I read or quoted from it was prior to those alterations, so that's what I'm citing. No reason to think the data has changed since then, just the interpretation.
