It sounds like you're doing the opposite of what your parents did. They resisted giving you a computer which made you want it more intensely. Whereas you gave it to them freely and are probably subconsciously pressuring them to get interested in it (e.g. your last sentence says "help me be better parent and support them better" but I think what you really meant was "help me figure out how to get them interested in computers") which is making them perceive it as work or something forced on them and are therefore rebelliously opposing it.

I know it's a truism but I think it's worth appreciating how rebellious kids can be. At least that's how I was. Tell me I can't do something, I will be obsessed with doing it. Tell me I have to do something or I should do something, I lose all interest in it.

Or they're simply not interested in computers.

Or you can try inspiring wonder and fascination and fun around computers.
This seems to nicely lay out how the censorship may happen and be implemented. But it only briefly touches on one small example of censorship currently taking place. Is there anything else to support this portion of your previous post?

> Not to mention that all the major mining pools have voluntarily chosen to collaborate with governments on censoring the blockchain, etc.
> do you agree the article establishes that the U.S. govt repeatedly warned private sector companies that supermicro servers had been bugged by china?

I agree the article establishes that unnamed sources in government are giving out briefings.

But I don't think that was ever in doubt.

Even when the first article was written, I could easily believe the journalist's claim they were told what they wrote by some sketchy anonymous government source. I just think they didn't demonstrate the truth of their source's claim.

There's always some anonymous "senior government official" ready to tell a journalist that Iraq has weapons of mass destruction (but they can't show the evidence as it's classified) or whatever other narrative they're pushing at the time. It's a journalist's responsibility to apply due skepticism.

Hi there @feifan, to inspire you to expand your definition of fun, check out stuff I made with my computer in 2021 so far, had a lot of fun creating it :)

Pre-packaged analytics is definitely valued for early on businesses that don’t have the time or resources to do in-depth data exploration. However have you considered ways to slice the data at any event property or user trait level, similar to Amplitude’s group by functionality?
Also, I see a lot of value in more “pro tips” on recommended segment event payloads and JSON structure for the most optimal data piping to this destination.
Personally I think most of the game is actually about managing changing requirements and layouting, but there's certainly a subset of gamers that are after the perfect endgame base (the X science per second crowd). If that's the target group of the compiler then you can assume that enemies don't exist (they waste CPU power), resources are decoupled from the factory using trains (they run out too fast for tight integration) and that the entire tech tree is explored (everything before that is just a unimportant bootstrap base). Making those assumptions certainly makes the compiler more tractable, but it also gives you another interesting metric to optimize (CPU load of running the produced layout)
> Basically, honesty is expensive and cheating is cheap. Why would we trust it?

We shouldn't. And indeed, if you look at a random legitimate review of something it's unlikely to be particularly helpful. More users does not make the data better beyond maybe "was it dead on arrival?".

Platforms should empower users to build rings of trust with users they do trust, while keeping it as private as they're comfortable being. People will build social capital because it's useful, it's fun and for the top 0.01% of users is something that can be a job.

Determinism together with quantum "many worlds hypothesis" implies that the world is in a superposition of vast amounts of states. Some of them contain the Lego movie (different versions of), most of them don't. The initial conditions of the universe lead to this superposition.

So even if it was inevitable from the beginning of the universe that the Lego movie will exist in some states, you (your version in this state of universe) can still be surprised to see that the Lego movie exists here.
Police bodycams would probably be the exception there (I imagine there's others, even simple laws are never as simple as what I wrote.)

I mostly agree. A lot of American libertarianism also comes via Ayn Rand, whom I consider to be more of a liberal heretic than a conservative.

"Racism is the lowest form of collectivism." - Ayn Rand

I've read Randian / Marxist where there is broad agreement as to many humanistic goals. There's just a deep disagreement about how best to get there.

(I'm not a Randian, though I do think she's worth reading and had some valid points about a number of things.)

In the past few years alt-right types have started trying to bogart the term libertarian as part of their broad recruitment efforts. I no longer use the term much for that reason. I did back when words meant things.

With Bit Gold (1998), Szabo Was Inches Away from Inventing Bitcoin
"In his essay “Shelling Out: The Origins of Money,” Szabo described how — as first hypothesized by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins — using money has been embedded in the very DNA of humans. Having analyzed pre-civilized societies, Szabo found that people across cultures tended to collect scarce, easy-to-carry objects, often to make jewellery out of them. It was these objects that served as money, which in turn allowed humans to cooperate: game theoretical “reciprocal altruism” through trade, at scale and across time.

Szabo also took a keen interest in free banking, a monetary arrangement advocated by Hayek, where private banks issue their own currency not bound to any particular state. Under such a system, it’s completely up to the free market to choose which money to use. While a novel idea today (and even more so in the years before Bitcoin), free banking was a reality in the United States of the 1800s, as well as in several other countries."

I think this is a neat attempt to make functional programming more acceptable but I really dislike the first section on assembler production

> If Factorio were a strongly typed language all the way, there would be separate recipes for producing different assemblers (that is assemblers with different recipes). For instance, we could have:

Technically yes - in a strongly typed language assemblers would be specifically specialized at compile time. For the Haskell side of things they go on to specify a higher order function to produce an assembler that can then be given a purpose by a second call. However they dropped the ball a bit on the C++ side and, while generics cause grief, they are quite good to learn about and this is a perfect place to use a templated function that could infer the correct type at compile time.
A Bug on Aurora PostgreSQL 12 causes Autovacuum to hang forever
As someone who loves Factorio, there is a lot about the process of the game that I don't love. Especially after having 'completed' about 4-5 factories with a friend, you get to a point where you know how to accomplish a task, but there is a lot of drudgery to get there. Also the combat is the game is tedious. When playing with a friend, we literally do a coin flip for who has to clear hives that are inside our pollution area. I personally push to turn off aliens when we play, but he thinks its lame to take out a function of the game.

With all of that said though, getting to a result is always a great feeling and basically why I still play it after all of these years.

> All that hassle so that you can save $10 a year.

You are talking as if KeePass's only advantage is being free and it is only preferred by people who cheapen out. That's not true, just as it's not true for similar arguments for Android vs iOS, or Linux vs Windows, or Windows vs MacOS. People have different preferences and priorities.

Even if the pricing was reversed, I am sure many people would prefer KeePass, as I do, just as in general preferring paid desktop programs to free online services.

> something as useful and vital as a password manager

Indeed, even if one day I give in and start using those online services for everything, something as vital as a password manager would be one of the last places where I would cave in.

I understand that KeePass wasn't for you, and it probably isn't for heavy mobile users as it is primarily a desktop program (official KeePass client works on macOS and Linux by the way, though it feels more at home in Windows). I am sure you could find excellent mobile clients too (I wouldn't know as I never had the need), but I understand that lack of official clients and having to choose among non-official clients, some of whom might be buggy, can be frustrating. But it is perfect for my use case, and for my non-technical parents that I introduced it to, regardless of price.
Why don't we see what he says?

In https://www.thespacereview.com/article/1037/1 you'll find that he is very critical of manned spaceflight in general, but about Apollo he says, "No, at the time of Apollo, the astronauts did do some useful things. They brought back Lunar samples. They placed a laser reflector on the Moon that has been used ever since to monitor the motion of the Moon with incredible accuracy."

Earlier in the same interview he criticized NASA for canceling Apollo 18 and 19 because he wanted the science that would have been done, to be done.

I guess he didn't say what you thought he said.

That said, his criticism of NASA's efforts with manned flight isn't because he doesn't think that it is useless to go to the moon. It is because it takes a lot of work to get humans there, and robots can do the job much more safely and cheaper. Which also explains why he thought Apollo was useful. At the time the technology of robotics was much worse so humans were the only way to do the job.
RK3399s make great bang-for-the-buck boards, but the idle power consumption is pretty high. I’ve been kicking around one of the Khadas VIM3s which has a newer Amlogic SoC on it and like what I’ve seen so far. It’s a significantly more expensive board, though

There are plenty of things that an RK3399 (or the new Rockchip being used in the OP) can handle just fine.

I was definitely interested to see that this new chip supports up to 8GB of RAM. I think there are a lot of interesting applications for RAM-rich, Gig-E bearing nodes that can run off a battery. (Examples: Redis at the edge, “Field” PostgreSQL replicated to the cloud when possible, nested VMs protecting trusted “firmware” from remotely-loaded containers and machine images, etc.)
I said actual Italian fascists because... that’s where the word came from. They invented it. The Nazis copied many ideas from Mussolini, who was in power for a decade or so before the Nazis.

Apparently historical facts are downvoted now?
> If someone hits 12 of the 14 markers, does that make him a fascist? What about six, or three, or one? Am I 1/14 fascist because I critique various aspects of modernism?

> To the extent they someone does match the list, all that really does is note that he'd match the characteristics of a few governments in the early 20th century. But that's only one kind of totalitarianism, and obsessive focus on it allows other kinds to slip through the cracks.

I think this comes down to Fascism just being a bit of an odd duck in the political discussion. Fascism seems to be an ever-present undercurrent of basically all Democratic and Republic-style societies, always there but not always apparent. There is always a subset of the population that believes their Government doesn't work, for any number of reasons, and to any given extent: Fascism plays well with a certain subset of those people. And the appeal is very easy to understand: if you perceive the systems that rule over you are fatally flawed, wouldn't it be so much better and easier to circumvent those systems and put in place people who would break the rules, but improve the nation?

But that of course alone does not constitute Fascism. I was listening to one of Robert Evan's podcasts where he and his guest (I'm sorry I forget the episode and show) were remarking that Fascism is less an ideology or even a movement, and more of just, an aesthetic that could be adopted by basically any ideology or movement, if the appropriate leader comes along, which is one of the reasons it gets thrown around so much, besides just the historical connotations to the Nazis, of course. They theorized that the values of most Fascist movements (appeals to tradition/a mythic past, hatred of weakness, hatred of the other) make them more compatible with those of a conservative bent, but leftists are not immune from it either.

People tend to forget that most of the Axis powers, save perhaps for Imperial Japan, were also extremely Fascist. Italy especially. And, prior to the United States' involvement in WWII, Hitler and Mussolini were renowned for their invigorating of their respective countries and their abilities as orators.

> This is a bit ironic, no? He's amalgamating aspects of different cultures into a generalized descriptor of a culture that's still being referenced decades later.

I mean, it keeps showing up. There are authoritarians seemingly all over the place at our particular moment of world history, many of which tick off numerous boxes on Eco's list. Does this mean they are all Fascists? I would say, yes, to a degree. I don't think one must wait for all the boxes to be checked before asking some questions. Does that mean they all merit interventions ala World War II? No. I just think it's something worth keeping in mind. And besides, America, the world police, are currently ticking far too many of those boxes ourselves to be throwing any stones out of our glass Fascist house anyway.

>I wonder if the rise of fascist thinking of the 4chan /pol variety among younger people can in part be explained by their entire generation having been raised on a steady diet of comic book flicks and of course similar "fanservice" Anime.

4chan is a contrarian website. The "rise of fascist thinking" is directly related to younger people being brought up on a steady diet of social justice nonsense being forced on them from every direction, for which the obvious opposite and most contrarian stance is the one held by the one and only, the late Adolf Hitler.

> If there is no free will, there is no point in having a conversation.

That doesn’t follow logically.

Honestly I’m trying think of what more to write about that, but it seems like a total non-sequitur. People post on HN for lots of reasons , but “demonstrating free will” is not one of them AFAIK.
Agreed. An empowering upbringing is a factor with a huge weight. Upbringing that actively attacks the learned helplessness and never allows it to even show itself is what makes people confident and be able to utilize a good luck.
Agreed on pretty much all points, but you've just described a way to optimize an N+1 system without changing the fundamental N+1 aspect. The caller is still making N+1 requests and incurring round-trip latencies (end-to-end cost can at best be reduced to 2 with parallelism), and the server still has to receive N+1 requests. REST has no semantics to change this.
There was no reason not to answer straightforwardly at the beginning. Weird that you didn’t.

Yes, it’s possible there is more than one attack and they want to avoid revealing which ones have been detected.

This may be the class of information they are protecting.

If so, the journalism leaves us in the same position as the attackers - the number of attacks we know have been detected is in the range 0 - n.

I.e. it’s possible the article is complete bullshit. Another possibility is that the article is itself disinformation. If attackers can’t tell then neither can we.

What it is not, is a news story we can trust.

> Yes but the resulting .exe depends on like 20 installed .dlls. For starters, the .NET runtime, which will fundamentally limit where your app runs. Second updates in those underlying dlls and runtimes may prevent your app from working correctly.

Not these days (for newer codebases).

The DotNet Framework has that issue with the runtimes, but it's been a fair few years since Microsoft were suggesting people start new projects with the Framework for much other than WinForms.

The present and the future of DotNet is DotNet Core, which can produce cross-platform single-file stand-alone dependency-free binaries, well suited to a copy/paste deploy if you want.

That said, away from Windows you're a bit screwed for the GUI. It's a great flow for cross-platform console tools and web apps/servers though, especially with the free VS2019 Community Edition or, better still given it is many gigabytes less and cross-platform, with VS Code and the C# plugin.

Good point. Words are means of communication.

Though there is a problem of ambiguity if word is reused (adjusted) for different meaning, while books (and people) from 1940 still continue using the old meaning.

The Behind The Bastards podcast has just finished a special run called Behind The Insurrections where they examine how various fascist movements came to power.

They briefly discuss Eco's essay before delving into quite detailed accounts of various insurrections.

The series has episodes on The Beer Hall Putsch, The March on Rome, The Spanish Civil War (with the usual caveats about Franco being a fascist or not) and the assault on the French national assembly in 1934.

The historical parallels, while perhaps a tad exaggerated by the hosts, are quite interesting.

I'm not saying it's useless to have type constraints in a database. Just that with a bit of care it's not such a big deal.

In the end there will always be some business rules that are not constrained by the database. So, you always have to be a bit careful about what you store in it. Indeed not being careful and hoping that your types, constraints and triggers are going to save you is more risky

Sequoia does not (yet) have feature parity with GnuPG.

Several important components are missing including a public key store. In GnuPG, the public key store is mandatory. In our discussions with application developers, in particular, developers working on server software, this requirement was more of a hindrance than a help. Thus, in Sequoia we decided it needs to be as easy to bring your own key store (e.g., an existing database) as to use ours.

That said, on the desktop, it is quite useful to have a shared key store--you don't want to import keys into each of your OpenPGP-using applications. We hope to finish our [public key store](https://docs.sequoia-pgp.org/sequoia_store/index.html) this year along with other features that end users need and expect.
