I like .app a bit more than .pkg, but have no idea whether a .pkg installer without admin rights can actually do anything more than a bunch of shell scripts before and after the installation.

Can you link me to an article or a piece of documentation that would explain it to a non-mac-developer?
All the advice in this thread is good. All I’ll add is, don’t let it get you down. Remember the upside of working solo. I have many not-fond memories of SSHing into servers while in bathrooms at bars. But the freedom of working for yourself is worth it.
I’m curious why there needs to be a script involved and feel like we are missing a big part of the story here. You don’t need “a script” to search your email. And you don’t need to take the risk to “exfiltrate documents” if it’s just emails in your possession or if you’re just worried about being fired. And it doesn’t make sense that a computer expert would take the risk to do all this electronically where it is easily monitored.

Perhaps she made a dumb mistake but Dr Gebru and her colleague were both managers, and it wouldn’t surprise me if this script her colleague was running was not just backing up her emails but rather pulling management-only and HR docs related to Gebrus situation. Which would be a much more serious offense and explain a lot of what’s going on here.
Actually posts with few comments have basically a flat structure. They have usually just one thread with two or three comments and the others are "single-comment" threads.

It's the posts with a lot of comments that tend to have three or four very long threads and those long threads skew toward being under the first comments posted.

That's going to be yikes from me, dog.

Thank you for driving home my point, though. I don't think you're aware of how dangerous your mentality is and where it leads. I'd suggest to you that I am not your enemy and we likely have a lot of common ground. I don't think the US handled COVID well and I don't like to see others suffer so needlessly. I also think that there are many things we can do to prevent further diseases such as reduce our dependency on factory farming and to invest more in improving the general health of our country. I don't suspect you'd disagree with those thoughts.
That people say "life on earth", and not "earth".

The thing that finally drove me off google wasn't data privacy, but how terrible it got in the past few weeks alone. It's started serving me crazy numbers of captchas whenever I'm on my VPN (personal server that I run), one after almost every query. I normally go through them with Buster, but after doing that maybe twice in a few minutes, it forces me to do the visual one.

Add to that how much google search results are these days already, and it's just not worth it anymore.
I've tried and keep trying every search engine worth looking at. I really want to get away from Google as much as possible. However I have yet to find anything that gives me anything approaching quality of results. This is of course my private opinion based on my needs and your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for.

The reason for the large number of deaths in the US is not that Americans have suppressed immune systems, are stressed, or are otherwise unhealthy. It's that the virus has been allowed to spread. The infection fatality rate in the US is not 500x higher than in China. The number of infections per capita is, however. The difference is that one country had a strict lockdown, followed by rigorous contact tracing, and the other did not.
Few European countries prevent people from leaving the country for leisure or family visits. I myself have managed to travel a bit this winter.

In some places, ruling parties have complained that they simply couldn’t prevent people from leaving even if they wanted to, because freely leaving and re-entering is enshrined in the country’s constitution. The UK, Australian, and New Zealand prevention on even leaving the country is much harsher than in most other developed countries.

"Minimizing contact and travel" is not the only solution, just perhaps the only solution you personally find palatable. Keeping borders open and simply accepting deaths works for me. Deaths are bad, but a new wave of nationalism and wall-building is worse.
Authoritarian institutions do consistently end up with a lot of bullying. Catholic church had massive bullying problems in its institutions multiple times when they run them. Something about that obeyssance based value system makes it so.
It’s unreasonable to assume that people who are part of a bureaucracy will publish serious, critical research about it.

It’s more convenient to find another problem to solve. For this issue today, we look at bettering the plight of gay eskimo pre-teens and declare victory over bullying.

I can tell you from personal experience as a member of a non-marginalized demographic who was relentlessly bullied in elementary school that bullying is not limited to any one type of target. In my case, a feckless bureaucracy and adult laziness were key enablers of bullying and bullying behavior. Personally, a amazing and brave teacher “saved” me and did so at his personal initiative and at his peril from a career perspective.

You are not wrong. However

1= $1m/bitcoin is x20 from here. And here is already a pretty high price.

2= $170bn is a lot of money. But on an international/global scale, it's a drop in the bucket.
In reality it is probably both.

Unless governments take a hard line against bitcoin by banning it, something they mostly haven't been doing to date, I expect it will have a future as a kind of digital gold. However, gold has tens of thousands of years of history as an asset class, while bitcoin is a little less proven. Don't forget it used to be illegal to own gold in the US, so bitcoin is not as safe from government as people might think.

But all financial assets tend to follow cycles of booms and busts. So the question is, where are we in the cycle? Are we nearing the top in the near term? I think we are, the growth of bitcoin has gone nearly vertical lately.

Concentration seems to be unavoidable. A direct consequence of the power law respectively Matthew principle. I haven't researched the alternative PoS (prof of stake) concept too deeply, but I'd wager it'll end the same way.

This isn't a technological problem, but a fundamental principle of our reality. Still, the ability to fork and just restart the chain from a previous point, with new miners, gives the collective some choice on a fundamental level, should the concentration ever become a problem.
So when markets closed on Friday, BTC was at about $55,000 and BTCC-B closed at $10.83. BTC continues to trade over the weekend obviously and is now at $57,000. Given this inbalance in trading times, should we see BTCC-B pop on Monday morning to catch up to BTC? Could one not buy/sell BTCC-B each morning depending on overnight activity of BTC?
Why are you running such an old distro version on new hardware?
If they get such a message, sorry but they are applying to the wrong companies. The ones I know very well (top tech in France, to take the French ones) would not say something like this.

As for the salary - this is normal. You apply to an engineering position so your experience in engineering positions/education counts. A PhD is not a hinder but not a huge booster either. This is not different from other countries, except for Germany and to some extend Poland and Italy.

Please note that France is extremely unique when it comes to engineering schools. Our pride in prépas and then top schools does not count at all abroad. You finished Polytechnique? OK, that's an engineering school in the top 100-400 of international schools.

This is karma for all the pain caused to independent artists by copyright censorship “AI”.
Specifically, here's the list of indicators common to v1 & v2, quoted from the article:

> ~/Library/._insu (empty file used to signal the malware to delete itself)

> /tmp/agent.sh (shell script executed for installation callback)

> /tmp/version.json (file downloaded from from S3 to determine execution flow)

> /tmp/version.plist (version.json converted into a property list)
We don't actually know what attack vector it's using so it's pretty much impossible to say at this point. It could be a simple trojan or it could be an advanced 0day chain. We have no clue.

There'd be no point manually creating the file, by the time the malware sees it, you are already infected.

My advice: keep your OS and browser and everything else updated, use uBlock Origin in the browser, and use a network-wide ad blocker (Pi Hole, AdGuard Home - personally I prefer the latter) with a few malware blocklists and keep them updated.

Malwarebytes were the ones who discovered how big this thing is so you can install that on your Mac and run scans.

You may also want to invest in Little Snitch which won't necessarily protect you against an infection but it will alert you to the calls the malware keeps making to its C&C servers. It's also entirely possible the self-destruct mechanism they found is triggered by such software being installed on the machine. Past Mac malware often removes itself if it detects Little Snitch.

And, obviously, don't install random software from shady sources, but I assume anyone on HN knows this already.

I'm pretty sure he refers to hashcash. And while you are right, PoW is not widely used in email, I think the quote just wants to say that it's used the same way as it's used with email if/when used with email. (So the claim does not intend to be that PoW is used with email generally.)

His point doesn't stand in any programming language that doesn't enforce error checking, exceptions or not, you will be surprised at any possible execution point if you don't check error values from previous call.

At least with exceptions you get a "I told you so" if something does happen, and a defined way to force application termination if the error isn't properly handled.

Given the remarks on the C++ post, I assume he belongs to the /EH- side of pitch forks and torches, which actually goes against the C++ best practices at Microsoft, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/cpp/errors-and-exceptio..., which leaves a feeling of a kind of biased article in some way.
We probably can’t destroy all life on earth either, because of the adaptations of microbes to the most inhospitable conditions. You’d have to remove the atmosphere and the oceans probably, or turn the earth into Venus.

Likewise when people remark on the fragility of earth when looking at a whole earth image - no, it is we who are fragile, particularly when, as tiny as we are, we could make the earth inhospitable to us.
The 2% is complete b.s. unless you are homeless and surviving on canned food.
This is a good discussion. I hope we can dive into the nuances of what ways work to raise cooler kids, esp. becoming more messianic / moral courage: making peace, defending the weak, calling-out infliction of suffering, and setting better examples for their peers.
Actually - when you see someone with no degree in an area speaking with this level of authority you should be skeptical. High schoolers are known for copy paste work as well. I've interviewed some for internships and some of them have lots of great "papers", but when you interview them you realize they don't even actually have any knowledge AT ALL of even ultra fundamental things (in my field).

I'm reminded of Nikola's director of hydrogen tech - guy had no degree in anything close to hydrogen and had worked doing driveways. I am skeptical in those cases, as I am here!

So I'd seriously looking at something like journalistic or academic fraud or plagiarism with this guys background.
It can[0], it's just that the partition holding 1TR and the second-stage bootloader (which is almost but not quite macOS) isn't overwritten. Just like how PCs that store UEFI variables on the SSD don't overwrite those when wiping the OS (as OS installers are now smart enough not to wipe those).

I don't see that. You'll need a source if you want to argue that. We've gone through cycles of higher and lower valuations. You also need to compare that to interest rates, because lower rates make the market more forward looking.
Probably yes. It works the same way with after hours trading on the stock market.
In the UK it's neither illegal to go outside, nor illegal to have lunch on a park bench as you keep claiming. Your entire argument is false (and selfish).

YouTube has built out a monetization platform which makes music companies want to have their music on YouTube. Twitch has nothing remotely comparable, and somehow I don't think streamers would be happy with a YouTube-like solution of "any sub money made while you're playing music go to that song's rights holder instead of you".
Apple leaks talked about how they maintained a “Marklar” x86/x64 release branch for MacOS for years leading up to the official launch. I was hearing about them during the G4 desktop era.

The M1 benefits from its relation to the silicon in iPhone and iOS being based on MacOS but there are major differences. It’s a revolutionary mobile computing platform. So far the biggest problems have been a few software glitches that can quickly be patched over the internet. This is a trivial set of issues to trade for the power / performance gains.

I’m looking forward to the newer 16” models coming out. I still need Windows on my computer for my workflows though so if the virtualization isn’t even beta quality I’ll need to be an Intel holdout for a while longer.

Thought I would give a little try out to the field, see if I can make a positive difference, or even any difference, in the healthcare system before jumping full-in.

Medicine presents a higher level of complexity than software. I'm not putting "in my opinion" in that statement, ample publications on the topic.

You can rebuild and recompile software, not living systems.

Yeah I just want to think through the claims of the maximalists. For example I often hear them say “it’s digital gold, so it has 10x to grow”.

That would be $85 billion for mining, whereas gold mining annually is about $1.3 billion. ~$1000 per ounce mining cost * 130 million ounces mined.

Of course it’s not an exact comparison as you prob ought to add in storage costs for gold but then maybe you’d need to add crypto online wallets and it gets messy. Mining to mining is clear and simple.

It is a drop in the bucket globally, but it also means you need that much capital flowing in to maintain the market price. Just to maintain. So you would want the network to be producing that much value at least.
I wonder if any of those higher temperature (relatively) super conductors that were at the top of the page recently will be of value here?
I think that's a good point about manufactured positivity, and it makes me wonder if the question I've asked is itself flawed.

I think your solution of promoting positivity to management positions carries its own concerns though, such as promoting naive yes-men, or "fronting" positivity so much that it becomes fake (for example, the "failure == success" bit from Silicon Valley HBO, if you're familiar https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=u3o8Cygx1EU)

That being said I still think you have an insightful response, thank you.
Your immune system is lazy and when it "thinks" it already knows the virus it kinda ignores it. But what it knows is the previously learned virus so the actual response to the new one might be less effective.
Most people in America didn't know about the Venera program, including me who was at the peak of my adolescent interest in "space stuff" at the time. I don't know whether to blame it on Russia's tendency not to publicize failed missions, or an American tendency to ignore or suppress news of successful Russian ones. So I just blame it generically on "Cold War bullshit" and figure I'm covered either way.

The Youtube stream was not muted. The VOD was not muted. Everyone else uploading the video cut of the song is not muted and removed. They are demonetized but the video is up with the original sound. So yes Youtube does something differently than Twitch where everyone deletes VODs asap or they replace the sound (like what happened on their own official channel)
