If this is true, we are really doomed.
Some of the things people currently believe are so patently absurd and obviously made up that labeling them as false would not make much difference. It's would be just one more conspiracy vector.

Even if it did, how could the regulators possibly keep up with the gish gallop of misinformation? There are those who seriously examine and rebut the claims of q-anon et al. but can you imagine a more thankless task?

A better approach is to teach good informational hygiene to kids. Pull from a variety of information sources, weight the ones that correct errors, awareness and taxonomy of cognitive biases, stuff like that.
So, essentially they let someone host malicious content on their CDN, which led to Google blocking it. I don't see the scandal here. Also, it seems Google fixed the issue within 2 hours, which is quite good TBH.

There are many open-source & commercial IOC lists in distribution from vendors like Crowdstrike, Team CYMRU etc., a lot of them are being fed into SIEM systems, firewalls and proxies at companies. If you happen to end up on one of these lists it can take months or years to clear your reputation.
Ask HN: Ubuntu Compatible Webcam
I am looking for a webcam that is compatible with Ubuntu (or Ubuntu based distributions).

I bought this one [1] ("best seller") and worked for a while and audio stopped working. I got it replaced a month later and video is now not working. I am looking for an advice. Thank you.

How is this related to a job offer from a department that doesn't exist at all?

And no, it wasn't particularily interesting since I am incapable of falling for optical illusions.
My understanding is this is a ploy to break contracts so they can move to Texas. Incidentally, the bankruptcy code is the only part of law that is able to break a contract legally.
Starting a Fediverse Server
It's kind of ironic, but I've the exact opposite problem in linux mint, just installed the xfce version and when I type in my password it sometimes does not unlock, the screen kind of hangs with a spinning icon. I can recover by starting a console session (ctrl-alt-F2) and killing the screen saver session thst way and then returning to the GUI. Other than this annoyance, my laptop is running really nicely on Linux mint, a Ed a creaking old Windows laptop from the bin.

I agree with your sentiment. Modeling intent is useful in two cases: (1) predicting the future, and (2) in court. When modeling intent has no predictive power, it’s generally irrelevant, as you said.
I've been adapting ZK ideas to my work flow. I am in med devices working on CE mark regulatory filings, and so ZK kinda fits well with my job, which is essentially to find product/process information, know stuff, and communicate it.

I think ZK works very well in team environment. I make "issue logs" - when something goes wrong, or there is a particular detail to understand, I force myself to write out the issue and resolution into ZK. (Force, because it is so much easier to just solve and move on without documenting)

If you can maintain some discipline in writing summaries and updating for yourself, this solves "we discussed x issue 2 months ago, but don't remember {some, all} details now"

I keep sublime text open to my Kasten at all times so using full text search in a database of curated notes is so much quicker than trying to find the right project folder, or searching outlook.

I don't worry about one file - one idea, I just break things up how they make sense to me. The "rules" for ZK don't entirely make sense for engineering work and must be bent to your needs.

My only lament with plain text is difficulty in using figures / images in discussions with myself.

Where I live any kind of bankruptcy fraud is looked at with the most strict eye and is one of the few things that will get the corporate veil pierced, and moving assets or re-incorporating elsewhere would definitely rise to the level of attempted bankruptcy fraud.

Is using bankruptcy and re-incorporating in another state to avoid a lawsuit a legal avenue or is that going to get you into more trouble?

What's the penalty for bankruptcy fraud of this kind in the United States?

We even had to expose some of the Ruby code, mostly authorization policies, as a GRPC service so people wouldn’t have to rewrite all the policies they already had in place themselves.

This is an area of interest and learning for me. A pattern of use for gateways sometimes is to provide id/auth and access the backing services with a high priv service account. This can’t be 100% of the time because some applications perform their own authorization at the data level, as in User X can see data A but not B, or in service Q user type X can crud attributes a thru d but only user type Y can enter attribute e.

What other patterns do people see?
Yes, indeed. Ok, will do.

#[no_mangle] extern "C"

All due respect to Rust, which is a fantastic language, what this line says is "here is a C function written in Rust".

You can of course do the same thing with C++ and with D, allowing all three to check the box for interoperability. And with Rust you get everything Rust offers: so you can write in the `extern "C"` dialect while getting memory-safety guarantees within the library, that's not nothing.

What Zig offers is the ability to write ordinary Zig and call that from C. That's part of what it's designed to do.

This is interoperability by design, rather than by configuration. It's simply a different thing, and considered along this singular dimension, I would assert that it's better.

I didn't, and wouldn't, say that Zig has the potential to replace Rust. I said that about C, and explained why.
No, there is toxic positivity, but I don't think this article is talking about it. I'll give you an example.

"Don't worry, it'll get better."

People genuinely believe that and for many things, it's true. For someone with a chronic and severe mental illness with no known cure? We're sick of hearing it.

There is no better for me. I'll never be completely free of suicidal thoughts or medication side-effects. I will never be free from degree of pain and suffering many people don't understand.

Does that make me unhappy? Frequently but I'm used to hurting all the time and I try to make the best of it.

But historically there is ample evidence that changes in media and communications have profound effects on societies. This is the premise of Elizabeth Eisenstein's The Printing Press as an Agent of Change (https://www.worldcat.org/title/printing-press-as-an-agent-of...), much of Hanna Arendt's work, that of the Frankfurt School.

Changes in writing, mathematics, printing, accounting, distribution and computation have had profound effects, often directly tied to periods of conflict: the Reformation, revolutions of 1776--1848 (widespread literacy), the Boer, Spanish-America, and First World wars (yellow journalism), the Second World War and cold wars of Jim Crow, the Red Scare, McCarthyism, and Father Coughlan, as well as the more recent Rwandan civil war (radio and audio recording, playback, and amplification).

Television, Internet, social media, and adtech delivered the "Twitter Revolutions" --- fine when they were in Egypt, Tunisia, and Ukraine, less so in Washington, DC.

Is the NRA going “bankrupt?”

No. In fact, this move comes at a time when the NRA is in its strongest financial condition in years.

To facilitate its reorganization, the NRA and one of its subsidiaries filed voluntary chapter 11 petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division. The NRA is not insolvent.
This bankruptcy will be blocked by New York as the NRA has publicly claimed their financial position is fine and they are only doing this to flee New York.

@NRA to use this or any other tactic to evade accountability and my office’s oversight.
Lots of CTF organizers are security researchers. This particular CTF is organized by people from Chaitin Tech, which is a cybersecurity company. They emphasize that their challenges are based on real vulnerabilities (found in their research, I presume).
I guess it depends on the nature of the request. I got an email from our CEO a few weeks ago asking for my number to talk about something and I work for a 10K+ person company. (I also know him pretty well and I was pretty sure what this was in reference to.) A lot of execs don't have a problem with reaching out to people directly. Now, if he sent me an email asking me to go to some sketchy website or complete some financial transaction for him that would be something else.
I know Angular seems to not be popular right now, but I am genuinely enjoying my job because of it. Maybe apart from animations, everything seems to consistently work. Even updating major versions is a mere footnote rather than a chore.

OP is getting downvoted because this blanket, default distrust is not escapable once you adopt it. Yes, some institutions have a bad track record and can’t be trusted. Others can be trusted. But OP extends distrust to “every major institution of our society” and then proposes we address the corruption. If your default position is that nobody can be trusted, how do you know that you’ve addressed the corruption? Trust someone to tell you that the corruption has been addressed? You can’t because you default to distrust!
My experience has been quite good, Mac Mini M1, 8GB RAM. It's very fast while running many applications, no CPU throttling, excellent thermal control.

- VS Code Insiders works well for Web, Nodejs, and Ruby.

- iTerm, Alfred, and Dash all work as expected.

- Homebrew support is excellent.

- Only a few issues with needing to re-install updated Ruby gems or Nodejs packages due to incompatibility issues from native C extensions, i.e. FFI (ruby), Sharp (nodejs), libvips (c++).

- CPU intensive tasks are very fast compared to a 2015 MacBook Pro.

- Input/Output is limited, and you will probably have to buy a dock and deal with display issues if you want more than one external monitor. I am still dealing with this.

Overall I would recommend, compatibility is 95% excellent. The feel of the Mac is satisfying and problems can be solved within an hour most times.

If you need many monitors for your work, you many want to wait until the compatibility improves, or buy a dock and roll the dice.
You can’t. The courts aren’t going to let this proceed.
You can still have redundancy. Basically active + backup config, where the other datacenter takes over and announces the /24 if the active goes down. They could certainly be utilizing "oob" IP connectivity to coordinate failover instead of using their own IP space.
If a historian cites Mein Kampf, they're using it as a primary source - they might not agree with the opinions expressed within but they do believe Hitler expressed those opinions.

If a historian cited a work that turned out to be a forgery, and did not acknowledge in their paper that it was a forgery, then their paper would certainly be suspect. True citing a retracted paper is not automatically 100% unacceptable, but it is something that should automatically demand further scrutiny.
I make a mobile app and we do this. When the app wakes up it tries to GET a file from /.well-known and if that works, proceed. If it fails we have a notice with "will retry at T". Timing is random between 10 and 50 seconds

Obviously it is possible this was a leak from a lab working on bats and coronaviruses. Zero Hedge was banned from Twitter for speculating about this under the flimsy excuse of “doxxing” a publicly-listed contact for the head of the Wuhan lab conducting coronavirus work, but they were right to suggest the possibility. After all, there have been several examples of governments covering up incidents like this, and we usually only find out years later when the evidence eventually piles up or a brave witness/whistleblower finally speaks up. See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sverdlovsk_anthrax_leak for such an example.

COVID has been a huge benefit to China ultimately. They have gained significantly on relative terms while everyone who has a less authoritarian form of governance (like the US and Europe) has lost. This was helped in part by the CCP’s cover up and suppression of journalists reporting about the coronavirus (https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2020/02/08/8037667...). That costed the rest of the world valuable time in learning about the virus, in preparing for it, and so forth. China should have voluntarily shut down all their ports much earlier to contain the virus. Instead they sat on this information, didn’t close their ports at all (waiting instead on other countries to deny traffic), and quietly hoarded supplies like PPE while no one knew any better. In the end, the CCP managed to dodge responsibility for this cover up and inaction, and instead recently jailed the brave journalist who reported on the virus for four years (https://www.scmp.com/news/china/politics/article/3117734/no-...). What a gross injustice.

And then there’s the fact that repeated requests to visit the Wuhan lab have been denied, and even a general visit by the WHO to explore the origins of the virus have been denied, even as late as this month (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-55555466). This WHO a team was finally allowed in this week but with a whole year having passed, I’m sure any evidence that could implicate the Wuhan lab of a leak, accidental or otherwise, will have been erased.

Is there ANY reason to trust the CCP or cut them any slack on this issue? I feel like the main reason news media and individuals on social media pushed back on such speculation, on the casting of blame on China, and on referring to the virus by location, was simply due to their distaste for Trump and their willingness to attack him at any opportunity.
Artificial Intelligence – Insanely Complicated, Hopelessly Inadequate
So, I could dabble around in codepen on it, but if I try running Spotify, discord, a couple more tabs on the side, it becomes less responsive as memory pressure ramps up. It’s nearly impractical to use the chrome inspector.

To get around that I’ve tried using both Spotify and discord in browser, and occasionally Spotify will cut out for a few seconds.

At one point I resorted to using xquartz to run a few things remotely. It was.. okay but frankly vnc performed better.
Can you elaborate on this?:

> I do all of my development remotely via ssh and local forwards

I do a little with SSH tunnels, but not much. Do you mean you have it set up so that on your Mac you can go to localhost:8080 (or whatever) in your browser and it will actually go to the remote machine?
I too fall in the latter category. Nothing is more annoying than fake appreciation, fake love etc. It is better to keep my mouth shut if I can't mean what I say
For those not familiar with the geography (like me), the caves where most of these viruses were collected are not near Wuhan, but about 1000 miles away, near [0]Kunming.

>[1]In 2004, deep in the wilderness of China's Yunnan province, a group of scientists from the Wuhan Institute of Virology discovered a cave full of wild bats carrying hundreds of SARS-related viruses.

>Their work, published in a draft paper in 2005, unearthed the link between SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) and bats for the first time.

>Now the virologist who led that study, Shi Zhengli, has revealed one of the strains found in that cave — the exact location of which is a closely guarded secret — is almost identical to the 2019-nCoV coronavirus which has so far killed at least 1,115 people and infected more than 45,000 worldwide, news.com.au rreports

I'm sorry if this comes across sounding harsh, as I don't know you at all, but your comment sounds like the opinion of someone in a lefty filter bubble.

Where I'm from, "far-left" and "far-right" means "people who think violence is a legitimate means to enact their ideology."

So that includes Nazis, the KKK, and communist revolutionaries. It does not include Rebecca Mercer or Breitbart.

Check out this data: [1]. Breitbart is only a smidge more conservative than Fox News, and Fox News is the #1 watched cable news channel in the country. That is called "mainstream." Presumably, the "far-right" would be "far" beyond the mainstream.

What I always find a bit missing in such articles is what the n is. The author writes "If you consider "addition" to be 1 operation" and this seems kinda intuitive and is correct if we talk about normal machine integers.

But adding two arbitrary integers might be somewhat linear in bit-width. And there we have it: with a fixed bit-width, this becomes a constant term.

So you might not want to talk about number of input terms as n, but also width of your terms (and python integers are arbitrary precision btw.).

So yeah, this is an upper bound on how many "steps" you do for every input, but often enough it's not really clear what a step is, especially if you have several "steps" that relate do different forms of data retrieval and organization (which often are culprits for bad performance if you're done optimizing the number of loops). Sometimes you can hide behind some guaruantees that your hashset has constant lookup. But did you factor in whether the hash function is actually constant (or even fast, for that matter)?

For me it wouldn't matter, I think that if the people in charge of this organization do something that is against the law and then use tricks to escape the consequences then they fully deserve to have the book thrown at them.

I just wonder if that is the case here or not according to US corporate law.

Yes, just set up a localforward in your .ssh/config like this:

Host dev
HostName <ip_of_dev_box>
User <my_username>
ForwardAgent yes
AddKeysToAgent yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_m1_air
LocalForward 8443 localhost:8443
LocalForward 8080 localhost:8080
LocalForward 8065 localhost:8065
LocalForward 3000 localhost:3000
...

Those line's effectively mean forward my local port 8443 to the remote host's 8443. The local port + remote port (and even the remote host) don't need to be the same.

Since it’s forwarding a TCP port your aren’t limited to forwarding just the web traffic either. I forward:

- Database ports (run mysql or psql locally for example)
- Docker socket
- Backend api ports
- Redis port
- Webserver port

And more...

Then you just use local clients as if those things were all running on your local machine
