It is true that time is not your only resource to allocate, and one would need to manage energy as well to handle a side project. The nice thing about energy is that it's not as rigid as time, and you can expand your energy budget by improving your overall health. The common advice is to improve your sleep, diet, exercise routine and social life. They all require some time investment, but it seems like you have some to spare.
I don’t know much about Instacart as I live in Scotland but what they have done (Andrew Kane in particular) for the Ruby on Rails community through their open source is incredible. Kudos.
A lot of the answers describe problems that can exist in any human organization rather than being specific to unions. For example:

- Prioritizing the organization survival or growth over the needs of those who should benefit from it. Ironically, this is the default of for-profit companies.

- People at the top being corrupted, prioritizing personal gain over moral values

- Becoming slow and bureaucratic after becoming big and/or old
Am I reading it right that this allows people to designate access to their password manager via email? I feel like I have to missing something, like a previous step that fingerprints the emergency contact's key or something.

(I get that we rely on email for stuff like this all the time, but your password manager is part of what protects your email account, which is why we rely on email as much as we do for resets).
Surprised that the reviewers do look at the code. I had assumed they wouldn't want to put the time in. In hindsight, I think it's often the case that it's faster to look at the code than to read an unclear methodological description.
My best friend just sent me a calendar invite for a ski day. We've been friends since we were four and have done everything that entails (cub scouts, sports, boy scouts, roommates, breakups, best-manning, etc.). I wouldn't ever want to lose touch with the guy, but even we schedule things like this. It's just part of lives getting more complicated and prioritizing things that matter.
50/50 results... for contacts who are mostly work-related or arguably somewhere on the spectrum, the organised approach works and is appreciated; for the neuro-typical and/or more emotionally aware, it feels forced and not so genuine, so they prefer the feeling of me remembering they exist and wanting to talk to them.

Just turn on reader-mode in your browser. Or prefix the url with `about:reader?url=`.

> that shortly thereafter redirects to the freedesktop.org site

Specifically, it redirects to the systemd documentation part of the freedesktop.org site. There's also a bunch of other documentation redirects for the stuff I use. That's what index.html describes.

Try finding the documentation online to write a systemd service. Google finds tons of useless results and good luck remembering the freedesktop.org URL for systemd documentation (or even knowing that it's the _freedesktop.org_ link that is authoritive), or try navigating their landing page. It's a f#$%ing nightmare!

Just go here instead. https://systemd.software/service. Super short and easier to remember and easier to discover than `man service` oh wait I mean `man systemd` wait no I actually mean `man systemd.service` because `man systemctl`. Wait where do I even put the .service file???

Sometimes a cold is so much worse for this group of people, sure. It can be deadly, but just as often (or more) raises the chance of complications.

The diseases we tend to vaccinate against aren't the common cold, though. They are worse. So much worse. As in, they can be deadly or create lifelong complications in healthy folks. It can be a quick death sentence for compromised folks - much worse than the common cold.

2021: what’s coming in free/libre software
Question about Firefox Energy Use
So I was just on a Google Meets call with about 12 other people. Most of whom had their cameras on.

My 2019 MBP 16" got super hot pretty much instantly and the fans kicked on. This is common for every video call I do.

I checked the "Energy Impact" score in Activity Monitor and it said 56. Nothing else running had an impact score higher than 1. I know that if I don't plug the power cord in, as soon as I do a call the battery drops by 1-2% a minute.

Someone on the call suggested that I switch to Safari, and when I did after 20 minutes (on the same call) the laptop was normal temperatures, battery had only dropped 2-3% total, and the energy impact said 1.7.

Now... 56 to 1.7 seems like a huge difference. I don't know quite what the numbers mean in Apple's "Energy Impact" but I do feel that Firefox turns my laptop into a toaster.

So questions:

Is this abnormal? Should I be worried about my MBP? It seems fine in all other regards.

Are there any settings I can change to improve Firefox?

Surely the Firefox team is aware of this sort of thing, yeah? Curious why it's hard to fix -- is it Google Meet or Apple that's making it harder for Firefox to work properly? Or is battery life just not something on the Firefox radar?
There is no clear demarcation line between journalism and propaganda. Every journalist has biases, every last one, and every journalist aspires to report on matters they care about (e.g. "want to grind an axe on", which is just a way of saying the same thing but with a derogatory connotation.)

What matters is whether their reporting is factual or not. In this case, there seems to be little doubt that the reporting is factual; the reported lawsuit does exist and does make the reported claims.

> does little to refute the idea that they're a disreputable paper.

I have no interest in refuting obvious truths.

I'm a happy Fastmail customer, but the number of outages recently has been a little concerning. There has been at least one outage per month for the past several months. And what's worse is that I've never seen a postmortem published. It's hard to maintain confidence in a service that isn't being transparent about why they keep having outages, or what they're doing to prevent future outages.

Well in the case of Venezuela, America's been interfering with their country since they decided to leave the IMF. Sanctions were imposed upon them and generally, they've been punished by America since and who have made multiple attempts through economic pressure and more direct actions to institute a government that will do what america wants.

>Also, this principle of noninterference you seem to advocate is morally bankrupt,

Well let's look back at some recent history of interference by america. They interfered in the middle east so they could take out the Taliban they trained and armed during the 80's and secure oil.pipelines between the middle east and Russia. This was continued into Libya and Syria using another us backed terrorist group, Isis.

Let's go back a little further to the gulf war where a complete and total fabrication led america to interfere in the middle east.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nayirah_testimony

Maybe we can go back to Jamaica in the early 70's and discuss how america armed the political party opposed to Jamaican independence and flooded the country with guns turning it into what essentially became a warzone throughout the 70's and 80's.

Maybe Columbia where the cia backed a government that supported their clandestine cocaine operations responsible for the crack epidemic in poor urban america?

When has America's interference in other countries benefitted anyone other than american corporations and american interests?

If america really cared about about dealing with morally bankrupt countries and governments, why do they ally themselves with Saudi Arabia and other countries well known for human rights abuses? Why do they arm and train terrorist groups?
People in the UK should know that the Tate Gallery, being a publicly-funded museum, are required to make any items in their collection available for you to see on request. When studying sculpture I was really interested in a 1972 piece by Marcel Broothaers called Tractatus Logico-Catalogicus and noticed that the Tate had it in their collection. I emailed them and set up a time to visit a warehouse in SE London, and they brought it out for me to look at it. It's so much better than seeing things in a packed gallery, let alone a packed Tate, and you get a real sense of what the work is like in the flesh, stripped of all the spectacle and didactic trash that generally surrounds works in somewhere like the Tate.

Bertrand's father here. I'm humbled to see his page show up on HN.

HN was one of the sites that first picked up Bertrand's story years ago and it played a big role is several of the events that followed, such as when he was confirmed to be the first and (then) only patient in the world with his ultra-rare genetic disorder.

The subsequent explosion on social media led to the discovery of other patients; to an acceleration of the science; to the development of treatments; to my pivot from academic computer science to precision medicine; to working at The White House to launch President Obama's Precision Medicine Initiative.

When Bertrand passed away unexpectedly in October, I've thought long and hard about how to ensure he leaves behind an active legacy.

Toward that end, bringing more computer science and computer scientists into medicine is one of my goals, and as a first step toward that I published a lengthy (living) draft on his site that explains the step by step process that Bertrand taught me for doing precision medicine:

> What does he lose if he guesses wrong?

Total credibility loss in the BTC community.

I could some how look past his indiscretions: calling himself 'chief Scientist' of an open source project, gate-keeping antics for pull requests, attempted forks with Hearn et al, his involvement with the foundation... He was still critical to the project for many years and not beyond redemption as open source project typically fork into other things for experimentation purposes that grow the project in the long term--Linux distros being a prime example.

But when he went public that he bought faketoshi's narrative it was clear he was beyond help, and that his meeting at the NSA was more than what any of us ever assumed and he was so compromised that nothing could help that anymore.

I hope he is mentally well, and I'm sure he has enough money to do what ever he wants in Life if he just kept a fraction of his coins, but other than I never want to see or hear from Gavin ever again.

Fastmail's web UI has a really annoying bug on macOS Safari where it locks up the browser tab burning 100% CPU, and the only way out is to close the tab. Happens to me roughly every two days. I wish I had some steps to reproduce it, but it just comes up randomly when clicking on messages.

I like the web UI, but if a desktop mail client crashed this often, I'd have deleted it long ago and switched to a different program. With webmail I don't have that choice.

Here's the denial of the TRO:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qhXD-4Kaw5dCEBv0dUM8buygEKg...

Parler hasn't lost the case, just a TRO that demands reinstatement on AWS, but the ruling on the TRO requires the judge to tip their hand about the case, and Parler is going to lose.

I don't think you even need to read the AWS AUP to know that Parler has no real case here. To buy Parler's contract claim, you'd have to believe that Amazon's lawyers are so stupid that they set out a TOS for the world's largest hosting provider that didn't give AWS the right to boot customers, which is something AWS --- really, every hosting provider --- has to do all the time. You almost have to not know anything about the hosting business to think there could be a case here.

But if you need to read a judge laughing Parler's claims off, well, now you can. Real "based" energy in excerpting the AWS AUP in their complaint and clipping it right before the clause that gives AWS the right to terminate service without notice to customers who violate their AUP. The judge, uh, noticed.

(As the judge points out, among the many problems with Parler's restraint of trade argument, there's the fact that AWS doesn't host Twitter's feed.)
"Apple may have the fastest processor, but Microsoft has the most comfortable tools. Both companies are not perfect, but if we must choose the lesser evil..."

It's very fast for a low power, laptop-focused processor and even then only truly excels at single-threaded workloads. It's out classed by AMD mobile offerings (4900HS and 4800U) in multi-threaded workloads on most tests[0]. If you step up to desktop processors, the top end processors like the AMD 5950X are in a different class of multi-threaded performance.

Don't get me wrong, it's an exceptional processor and incredibly fast for its sub-25W TDP.

>I sold all my intel stock the next day [late 2019], it made up most of my portfolio at the time.

Sorry if this is too off-topic, but why did it make up a sizable fraction of your portfolio in the first place?
This strikes me as data validation, which should reside in the application layer - I don't see how pg-emoji helps in any way.

Further... if the receiver can validate the encoded string itself, they implicitly already have the string. Why require the user to copy/paste at all? If you meant "Ensure that the user hasn't copied quotation marks as well", then we're back to it being application logic.

If I'm understanding correctly that the primary benefit is that there is a checksum, then there are already many solutions for this in common use - base58checksum, as used to ensure the validity of Bitcoin addresses, comes immediately to mind. I wrote an implementation of that quite a while ago: https://github.com/lyndsysimon/cryptocoin/blob/primary/crypt...

Please don't misunderstand, I'm in no way intending to be argumentative. I don't understand the practical use of this project, which leads me to believe that there is a problem being solved that I lack the context to identify.
My only complaint about the regex syntax is that it does not allow you to separate things out with whitespace, or add comments about what the chunked units. The x modifier fixes both.

What you traditionally see with a complex RE for a complex pattern is the same as what you traditionally see with someone writing complex SQL statements on a single line. Stop trying to treat it like a black box, and treat it as a programming language in its own right. Use whitespace, indentation, and comments (when necessary) to communicate intent as well as just to make it do its job.

Other than that, regular expressions say what they mean and mean what they say very concisely directly. Particularly the PCRE variants of the language. I consider that conciseness and directness a virtue.
Reading TFA, that was exactly the sense I got: a wistful announcement that a cherished part of the Internet was maintained for years beyond most of its users even noticed, and is being closed down. It seems readily apparent from their actions and words that they truly seemed to care about Tucows Downloads, whatever it might be worth financially.

Glad to get to the comments and see further reinforcement of that feeling. It seems you had a great read on them as people. Kudos.

You are funny maybe without intending to be.

They all share the same "pointless" features:

- lawyers: reason for hiring: the company doesn't get sued for breaking laws (boils down to reducing costs even if you only consider the statutory damages)

- accountants: reason for hiring: the company doesn't hide deficits / key employees can't divert money (boils down to reducing costs)

- MBAs: reason for hiring: so that existing processed are optimized, and employees don't slack off too much (boils down to reducing costs)

To which I'd add HR:

- HR: reason for hiring: so that the company doesn't get sued for discrimination or gets bad PR that will reduce sales/good hires (boils down to reducing costs) -- connected to lawyers, except HR may also care about stuff that doesn't directly break laws.

So I think all of them are important! Then again, I'm now a capitalist pig, so feel free to dismiss my concerns.

But even if you only care about the visible features of a product, understand you can't innovate or even excel on a budget - which means reducing costs and trimming expenses whenever possible.

That is a fair point. WebDAV seems to provide the listing and update semantics that you are looking for. WebDAV is widely supported by webservers so I think it is a great replacement for FTP.
SMT gives you some probability that thread X and thread Y are under-using the resources of the CPU but if you lose that bet you get antagonism. On Intel CPUs in particular there are only 2 slots for filling cache lines, and filling them randomly from main memory takes many cycles, so two threads can easily get starved.

If thread X is chasing a linked list and thread Y is compressing an MPEG then it's brilliant.

I've been trying to come to grips with the societal impact of echo chambers, "hate" speech, and the obligations vs. rights of sites and hosting providers.

So far, my take is that websites have less obligation than hosting. It concerns me that AWS booted a site off their platform for speech issues - I am leaning more and more to the idea that colos, IaaS and ISPs should be considered common carriers, and that only a court order should get a site booted off the web entirely.
