This is so strange. Unfortunately I can't find any security issue on the server or any files that caused this.

Here is a screenshot of webmaster tools(1). The pages it lists are html pages and I've checked the source code and there are no script or anything on them.

Also the virustotal site says 'base64-embedded'. Those are just svg images I've embedded in the html to reduce the number of requests. That can't be a trigger right?

Well you can't, slowing down is a must. Blindly taking packages of executable code to be embedded in your code from anyone and everyone in the world who can publish a dependency is very flawed. It only mostly works because most people are nice most of the time but that's not a process one can trust.

I understand the desire for these free-for-all package distributions where every tool has it's own library downloader and anyone can publish anything... but the model is inherently incompatible with security.

On the provider side, there needs to be a strict process of validation and code reviews to get any code changes into a public library. On the consumer side, there needs to be the will to take personal responsibility to curate everything that is imported and minimize dependencies.

There's no shortcut to secure code.

I'd report it as incorrect, but I can't even ignore the warning (Firefox, clicking proceed anyway just pops up an additional 'deceptive site' banner that follows me even after navigation away /shrug) - so I can't really justifiabally report it sight unseen.

Where does the upload go when your customers use it on their site though? Maybe what's deceptive is that if HN shows an upload area in an iframe or whatever, and I upload something, I expect that I'm giving it to HN, but really it's gone straight to you at Uploader.win?

(Fwiw I also think uploader.win is not a great name, your search result looks like it's a good tool, but the name sounds sort of scammy, like the kind of thing you'd get if you searched 'free download exe' or something.)

It's a bit more complicated than it sounds, text streams are generally just compressed as good as they can be using whatever available scheme, the bulk of the space usage is often fonts and images. A PDF itself is not compressed so much as each part of it is compressed individually.

There's not much to do with fonts except don't embed them unless you need to, and don't have duplicate/overlapping subsets, if you do have these it is very tricky to untangle. I'm not aware of any good tool to do it automatically.

For images, it depends on the format. If your PDF has JPEG (DCTDecode) images then it will have to resample to the JPEG spec, if it's TIFF likewise, you can change the number of colour bits, or you can downsample the DPI which is a simple gs command line option, or you can change the compression scheme within the JPEG itself then replace it. There are so many avenues to approach this that I'm not sure it's something easily achieved while still obtaining a good result across all possible PDFs.

Within a problem domain though, like PDFs that are just pages of scanned images, you could probably iterate and downsample until you hit your target size.
If "being canceled" means that people say mean things about you but you face no material consequences, maybe it isn't the awful thing it's made out to be.
The Startup Owner's Manual.

It's a classic, but for some reason not too popular. As the subtitle says, there are literally step-by-step instructions on how to build a great company. It's a little dry. It's a 600 page book. And checklists can be intimidating.

I didn't even read the whole thing, but it shows how the process is more like R&D than gambling, and removes any doubt. I feel like a lot of modern startup "advice" was pulled from this book and mutated beyond recognition, becoming more like cargo cult.

There's not that much boilerplate actually. Much less than in Vulkan. WebGPU abstracts away memory management, synchronization and image transitions, which make up for a lot of boilerplate code in Vulkan (and easy to get wrong). The WebGPU hello world code is not that much longer than equivalent OpenGL 3.x code, however it is a more strict API and in some cases requires a redesign of a renderer. For example, you can't update uniforms in the middle of a render pass, you have to create a large buffer and use dynamic offsets to move inside that buffer. In OpenGL the driver did that for you transparently.

If you could please share this with any female engineers you know, text them, email, whatsapp, LI, however you contact people and fill it in yourself we really want to get a large scope on this to make the most in-depth study we can.

Because there aren't many hydrogen refueling stations currently in the United States, no one is going to build any more, so it is a joke and dead?
Right. Frame rate heavily depends on workload.

For me, it is completely fine. I just develop some softwares with little graphics load, and use Web applications and watch some videos.

You have no luck here if you are going to play modern games, but modern proprietary game engines do not support AArch64 Linux anyway. It would be difficult time for Linux desktop if other PC vendors migrate to AArch64.
I've had many cats in my lifetime. All the ones I had which we used flee collars eventually died of some breast tumor/ liver/kidney failure early in life around 5 cats died under 5 to 6yrs. We eventually stopped treating fleas, we just washed them, and sprayed our home, it was a much smarter solution. our last batch of 4 siamese all lived into their late teens, having never been given flea products.
One justification for this is that the imputed "income" you get from being an owner-occupier (ie the rent you would have otherwise paid but saved) is not taxable.

Although I don't know about Germany specifically, I suspect this is exactly the position you'd be in if you followed through with this plan - the company would have to pay tax on the rent. And you wouldn't be able to get around this by reducing the rent say to zero because it's a related party so the company would likely be taxed on an imputed market rent.
As far as I know the prices are high only in vibrant areas. You can have houses in middle on nowhere in mid- and north Sweden for very little. So, it's essentially the same as in other countries with low nominal population density, in which the density is concentrated around attractive cities.
ESP's only a power hog when it's using the WiFi... In deep sleep it can go as low as 10 uA! .15mA gets you the low-power processor for doing sensor interrupts.

In reality Watchy currently draws around 1mA while sleeping and 55 hours of battery for me, not using WiFi (not really a priority for me).. I think that can be improved with firmware updates, seems like there is potentially some low-hanging fruit. It's all open source firmware, so you can eg. program it to deep sleep while you deep sleep to save battery :)

The spec is really well written, and will take you far if you just want the basics (i.e. not the scripting stuff they added after 1.4 which is around where you should usually stop if you just care about printing). My only issue with it is when it comes to fonts or images, you'll have to break out to additional specs to understand those formats since PDF is more of a container.

I do like this minimal example as a way to get started and see how a very basic PDF is built.

I'm naively asking this as someone from England, I can easily go to a farm nearby. Even though I live on the outskirts of a city there are numerous options within say 10 miles of me. I go to the farm and the chances are they have a shop selling fresh or frozen in season meat (as well as cheese, eggs, veg or unpasturised milk). I can get advice on cuts and cooking from the butcher there and it will cost 50-100% more than it would in the supermarket. It will also taste twice as good.

I don't do this that often, but it's a good experience, and I'd like to do it more in the future. Of course these places will mail frozen meat to your house too.

Is this kind of thing an option in the US? I'm pretty sure it's common in most of Europe still.
> Re. Novichok, if there wasn't video evidence of two known Russian agents

Well, it's expected that Russia try to spy on strategic facilities of other countries and on former agents who flipped, isn't it? (I'm making a point here)

My point being, if we go down the rabbit hole of "everything is valid until proven wrong" as the person I replied to said then we just lose sanity, in my view.
You say "All test files are deleted after 24 hours.", that implies to me that files people upload _could_ be downloaded too.

If that is the case, that is where you are vulnerable. Free hosting of a file at a trusted domain is worth something.

If people are not intended to be able to download their test files, check your logs, someone might have found a way around it.

That's the best I can think of.
The upload goes to the customers AWS account or Digitalocean spaces account. We do not host any cutomer's file.

Also it always opens-up a file popup so it can't be used deceptively.

Regarding the name it's short form of 'Uploader window' like Filer Picker. Really can't do much about that.

Thanks for helping it in reporting it as incorrect.

That is a pretty narrow view. The world does not stop only to cars. Even for Toyota.

Fuel cells do not break through in the car industry (because battery do the job there) but do everywhere else.

- We now have datacenters and hospitals that dump their old diesel generators for fuel cells for emergency power supply [^1]

- Non-nuclear submarines have run commonly on fuel cells in Germany for decades.

- Fuel cells start to be evaluated with ammonia usage for rural co-generation Heat & Power. [^2]

- Several Boat experiments use Fuel Cell [^3] [^5]

- With the current power density level of battery and for the next decade, there is no way you can make a "green" long range commercial plane without a fuel cell technically [^4]

Yes. Hydrogen storage is a pain and yes Hydrogen electrolysis is inefficient. But it does not change it is already a working solution for High Power & High Density electricity generation and will probably remain there for decades.

Depends no? If your "100%" is based on the after value rather than the before value, you have added 100%. Though I guess there is an implicit expectation that it is the before value that is used.
Anyone else in SA might be familiar with the Mintaro Maze (https://mintaromaze.com.au/) which looks to be in the zone of the Mid North network. They have had a significant part of the maze's conifers lost to pesticide spray drift - a hedge that took many years to grow and shape.
Fair point. The next poster explains how Amazon identifies and tries to mitigate it:

50 Mbit is the maximum bandwidth it can do. It decreases with range which will result in degraded image quality.
What matters is that the total population is growing, which push the prices up, I think mostly in already attractive and crowded cities ("Over a longer period, the population of the EU-27 grew from 354.5 million in 1960 to 447.7 million in 2020, an increase of 93.2 million people" https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php...). That's 93 million people you have to house, and they are not going to the countrysides.

It used to be that print newspaper subscriptions were quite expensive. Now that news is so heavily devalued subscriptions are a lot cheaper but even in the early 2000s a premium daily newspaper subscription could easily be $50 a month.
pdftk is by far my favourite for this too. It's quite fast but it does run into some file size problems when merging files as it doesn't deduplicate resources, and can crash outright on some bigger files.
The market's only moved in one direction over the period; the fund can make money on moves in both directions.

So the more volatile (within a period) the more money making moves there.

If this is the benchmark:

_ _/\ /
/ \_/ \/

at a dollar per slash, it's up $2. A fund that bet (and realised) a $1 per slash made $8.

(Even with only long bets, they could make $5.)
Wasn't this the same argument being made for EVs? Literally infrastructure, cost of production and the cheapness of oil were all major arguments for a lack of success and growth.

Then economies of scale come into play to make things cheaper as per batteries. Plus it's Toyota and they are well known for industrial processes (they also own a part of Tesla, no?)

What's the issue with having Hydrogen/EV's together? Diesel and petrol had no issues.

There are only two options: hack Virgil 3D or hack XQuartz. You cannot "just" run XQuartz and solve problems. And I choose hacking Virgil 3D because it should have less communication overhead and work with Wayland.

ICANN Refuses to Accredit Pirate Bay Founder Peter Sunde Due to His ‘Background’
Yes you are correct they can download it too. After thinking about it for the last 4 hours that is all i can think off caused the problem. I have nothing which can be called deceptive text on any of my site otherwise.

I will probably delete files after 2 mins instead of 24 hours.

Another option is I ask for credit card details before I let them try the demo. This can get rid of letting anyone misusing the demo features.
It’s probably workable in terms of material properties if you can manufacture it in the geometry needed, but I’m not an expert in 2d materials.

The edge of a graphene sheet is a defect that affects the electronic properties, with strong orientation dependence

However, in this article they intentionally introduce additional defects to tune the electronic properties, so there’s probably no fundamental issue. I agree with another poster here that manufacturing at scale in integrated devices is not obviously viable. Especially because it seems like a different method of introducing defects is needed if you want to grow the graphene by chemical vapor deposition.

How did Toyota (seemingly) blow this so bad? Arguably the leader in electric vehicles/technology with the Prius which first came out in 1997(!). And then nothing since like 2010. so many opportunities to reset/pivot back to batteries along the way yet they keep doubling down on fuel cells. I hope they crack whatever challenges they are facing but to me it looks like an all-in bet that won’t work out.

Show HN: LearnObit – A Cognitive Tool to Boost Learning
There is a wikipedia article on the term:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alt-right
Hey hackers.
For the past three years, I've been working on LearnObit: a tool that helps users learn information as quickly as possible using various learning theories and tricks.

When I first started programming, I used Anki and the old tried-and-tested spaced repetition algorithm. It was great for word-pairing (e.g., learning foreign languages), but didn't work for more complex, general topics like Mathematics or Physics.

This drawback has led to spaced repetition being overlooked, despite its proven effectiveness in learning and retention.

I wanted to unlock this effectiveness for a wider audience — that's why I made LearnObit, a notetaking tool that lets you structure complicated information and learn it as easily as possible using spaced repetition and other learning features.

It's been a year since I released it to the public. For a while, people told me they loved the concept but found the interface lacking — yet finally, I think the tool is developed enough to be useful.

If you take learning seriously, you need to check it out. Who knows, maybe it could change your life.

In the meantime, I'll be here if you have any questions. Thanks for your time and support.

Sports was the first think that came to mind when reading the article. True, previously TV based ads where worth more, and could help pay for licensing right, but those licensing fees as also balloned and consumers have to pay more directly.

Sports is one area of media that will truly be disrupted as we’re already pushing the limit of what people will pay and advertising is no longer able to pay the difference.
I like how SwiftKey and macOS deal with it. Long press key gives options for accents.
I think you have your cause and effect the wrong way around there. The argument put forward is that Netflix is forced to use a subscription model because Facebook and Google have almost complete control of the advertising market.

In the specific case of Netlfix this probably isn't true as their business model is an online version of a business that already charged a subscription (cable TV).

However in businesses that traditionally relied on advertising e.g. the New York Times as mentioned in the article, the transition to the internet is leading to more upfront charging i.e. Paywalls because they aren't getting the ad revenue required to offer their services for free.

My personal take from the article isn't that all content use to be supported by ads (although I would suggest that a lot more of it was than most people realise). The issue is that the near duopoly Facebook and Google have on web advertising, mean those producing the content can no longer rely on advertising to fund themselves.

As a result we are seeing more and more paywalls being put up to fund these businesses. The potential end result of this is that finding content will continue to be free and probably even get easier. Finding content you can consume for free however, is likely to get a lot tougher.
