And no, denying people service, jobs and social security based on color, religion sex or whatnot is not the same as fighting for people to have these rights. Because the former takes away rights, while the latter grants rights without anybody else loosing anything.

It is an entry level chip. And it’s a fantastic one.

But a comparison is a comparison even if lopsided, and when people are pushing this as “As fast as high end Intel”, it’s going to be squared against high end intel setups with discrete GPUs.

The M1 is absolutely fantastic. But it does absolutely fall short in some (arguably small) ways. Pointing those out isn’t unfair.

The only thing you really need to move between laptop and desktop is an external USB disk drive. You can use it directly, or sync the files. I wrote a program a long time ago to sync file systems.

Commuting to work with just a disk drive worked fine for me when I worked in an office.

I'm just not attracted to the idea of having everything on my laptop, because of the significant risk of having it lost or stolen. When I use a laptop, I just put on it what I'll need, never any personal things.
I've been using Superpowered for the past 2 weeks and can honestly say the experience is great. I don't live in the browser and the Mac calendar app is pretty awful, so this has been a definitely workflow improvement for me. I probably click on it 10-20x per day.

That said, when my trial expired today I elected to not upgrade in no small part to the insane memory usage.

I upvoted Normille’s comment to offset the downvotes. It may have been crudely put but it’s not wrong – at least in the case of Ireland, the country I know best.

For as long as I can remember, the Irish government has been quite deferential towards the US, e.g., allowing the use of Irish airports (mostly Shannon, a civilian airport – but also Casement Aeorodome, the headquarter of the Irish Aer Corps) by US military to carry troops, weapons and – quite possibly (aircraft were never inspected) – victims of “extraordinary rendition”. Every year, our Taoisigh (prime ministers) are always eager to have a photo opportunity with the US president on St. Patrick’s day.

I’m guessing that this is mostly to attract Foreign direct investment into Ireland from US multi-national corporations as can be seen by our notably low rate of corporation tax – and the government’s unwillingness to accept the tax income that the EU considers to be owed to us by Apple. Neo-liberalism has been the dominant political ideology over the past few decades with one former Tánaiste (deputy prime minister) famously declaring that Ireland was (ideologically) closer to Boston than Berlin. This dominance left Ireland particularly vulnerable when the 2008 financial crisis eventually hit us – without the widely touted “soft landing”.

However, the relationship isn’t all bad: a number of US administrations – particularly Bill Clinton’s – helped to bring about the end of armed conflict in Northern Ireland. That was probably the most important political achievement in the recent history of Britain and Ireland (one that Brexiteers, sadly, don’t seem to care about or have forgotten about).

Show HN: Interactive Org Chart for Engineers
An organization is a complex and dynamic system with structures, process, roles and information that are interconnected with one another.

As an embedded system engineer I have been trained to design complex hard-tech systems using CAD tools. It saves time, money and accelerate our ability to re-iterate our design.

We believe there is value in:
1. Modelling an organizational system in software
2. Make the model interactive so that it can be simply and quickly updated to capture the dynamics(changes) of organizations.
3. Improve the human(managers/leaders) ability to assess the status of their organization and improvise the system(organization)

Can you think of even a single thing dbus can do that my approach cannot do? Emphasis on cannot here -- if you do reply to this, I expect you to prove that the thing cannot be done by any simpler means. If not, then why does dbus need to exist? Better question -- why are people who insist on writing software that doesn't need to exist given decision-making powers in fd.o? Software is like a form of pollution -- more code means more bugs and more security holes (and dbus isn't immune [1]). Any greenhorn developer can write lots and lots of code; it takes wisdom and experience to avoid writing code. So if people who don't grok this are running fd.o, why should I trust anything fd.o produces?

Before you try and tone-police the above, you should know that it is fd.o that needs to convince me to venerate their software artifacts. People writing more code isn't by itself praiseworthy -- code is a goddamn liability, so it had better have a good reason to exist and (in dbus's case) have a very good reason to be widely depended-on. Just because you happen to like or use someone's code doesn't mean that it is any good.

> And I don't understand what you mean by re-implement POSIX IPC analogues, dbus is essentially just a wire format for Unix domain sockets and a message bus that routes the messages, it doesn't re-implement anything.

I guess if you didn't understand POSIX IPC, you wouldn't see how this sentence is an oxymoron. The kernel itself gives you all the trappings of a message bus for free. You don't need a wholly-separate daemon and wire format spec.

Also, the only people who seem to use dbus's wire format are dbus clients. Even when dbus was new, there were already widely-used and well-understood formats for representing structured data (e.g. ASN.1, typed netstrings, S-expressions) that could have been leveraged to make interacting with the service that much more straightforward. But then again, we're talking about people who wanted to re-invent POSIX IPC, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised they also wanted to impose their own wire format on the world.

> terrorist groups such as Al-Qaeda and ISIS

They're not "terrorist groups", they're just following the Koran. What do you think the first 2 letters in ISIS mean?

Also, Muslims who promote traditional Islamic violence have dozens of Youtube channels today. The reason is that Youtube delegates complaints to ... Muslim moderators, who are also "just following the Koran."
IMHO, Grant Fuhr was underrated for his skills. He was left to do most of the defending himself while the rest of his team was out hunting goals. Even lots of beer and old video of his games would likely not settle this, but I put this out there. The goal differential was strongly in the Oilers favour.[0] So leaving Fuhr to his business looked to work.

Comparing to the Habs[1], the Oilers had a full goal + on any other team. Plus the Oilers were averaging 5 goals a night with some 8-0 and 7-1 out there. Likely still could have won some of those games without a goalie.

I don't doubt that, and I don't doubt it's a good puzzle, especially if you're already familiar with the format.

But since this is my first introduction to this kind of puzzle, I need some anchor points at the beginning so I feel like I have something to work off of.

I'm not even asking for a whole row, just an easier set of known chars at the start of the round so I have a hint at which of the 39 constraints I should start with.

To be honest I'm not even saying this puzzle should change so much as I am looking for a different puzzle to dip my toes.

I don't have any interest in starting the puzzle if I don't feel like I can put a foot down somewhere. It's like trying your first Minesweeper game, making two random clicks, and getting two `7`s. Where do you go from there? Or learning Sudoku from the hardest difficulty level, without having built up a library of patterns from the easier difficulties.
In general I agree. This was the same problem when social justice advocates (particularly those who were not core contributors) were trying to force "codes of conduct" on open source communities that felt no need for them.

But in this case, my understanding is that the distinction of sex and gender is essential to the concept of transgender in the first place. Is insisting (perhaps somewhat pedantically) on using those terms in a consistent fashion really an offense?

Now, they are free to exclude people for whatever reason they want. Sub-reddits are not supposed to be all things to all people. But the statement does not strike me as obviously offensive to trans people (I've even seen them make the same distinction).

To argue with statements like this: "If we start taking all the energy used to mine a given cryptocurrency it aggregates to more than most countries per cryptocurrency." just sounds disingenuous, it seems like they haven't done any research whatsoever, they just woke up to this news and got outraged.

The energy consumption in clothes dryers, transportation, christmas lights etc. all will fall under "more than most countries" category. You are just constructing a narrative based attack.
Not just that GNOME and KDE's Wayland support both predate wlroots, but they also go through the effort to support EGLStreams, necessary for NVIDIA compatibility. The wlroots author is explicitly against this.
I'm not sure how much you've read WSJ editorial pages, but many of their pieces involve a lot of research. As a recent case (I forget the exact article), but I was listening to a podcast of a man that recently had a commentary piece in the WSJ opinion section, and as part of it he had interviewed around 20 people for the piece (talking with various state governors about their covid policies). Just because they don't dive deep into each interview, many of their pieces are backed up by lots of research.

A imperial decline mostly means a lot of chaos for a couple of decades, I think the most recent example would be the soviet union. It took Putin like almost 2 decades to recover/stabilize from the western plunder of Russia in the 90s via Russian oligarchs. Russia lost a lot of brain power in that period and lost a lot of institutional knowledge which might takes generations to rebuild again.

Also the engineers and high ranking members of society have to resources to flee to more stable regions and carry their knowledge with them. Its also the engineers that are usually given grace or offers by a opposing forces/rivals.
Surely it's also true that when you start preventing actions, you give a very small group of people the ability to prevent the actions of whoever they please. It's hard to see the point being made here.
Yeah, definitely. Today you have to setup two instances at different locations yourself for backup. That has the advantage that you have full control, but it can be tedious. We would like to make that process simpler in the future

> you pay for the convenience

I think this is a great business model. I also appreciate the willingness to open source at least some form of client, since that will help build trust (at least with us more technical users) that you're actually doing the encryption right.

As a technical user though, I'd be absolutely terrified of data loss as an early adopter of these sorts of systems. (And note: it's not just about server-side data loss, it's also about all the bizarre ways clients can interact with the host OS/filesystem and the crazy number of edge cases that pop up there.) That's one of the big things keeping me on Dropbox: I know their platform is battle-tested. I wonder if there's a way you can provide more assurance about this?

I think you are referring to concrete/mainstream languages - so what you are writing is correct from a practical perspective, i.e. I would do that. From a theoretical perspective however it is not necessary, even if such a type-system might not exist yet.

My bad, I tought you were talking in general. I'm not familiar with DDoSecrets so I cannot say much about their case specifically.

What I can say though is that generally the threat model for attackers slightly more sophisticated than script kiddies suggests that the preparations involve a non negligible amount of time from highly specialized engineers and that somehow, someone has to pay for it.
I was originally going to write a more thoughtful response, but then I got to this section:

"The names of these e-deologies tend to be both fantastical and literal."

"post-civilizationist"

"voluntarist post-agrarianist"

"Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism"

I've really never heard of categories like these. It makes me think the author has delved into subcultures I really have no experience in. In that sense her descriptions may or may not be valid. But, she makes no attempt to bring specificity to a lot of her claims. Who are these people in these subcultures? How many people are in them, and how many people are out of them?

In this sense, it reads a lot like a "cultural studies" piece; there is some great individual insight, but the overall essay makes claims it hasn't supported.
> Who decides?

Who decides if Nazis are allowed to put signs with Nazi slogans on your lawn?
yup, change data capture.
In context of this satellite, they is the MAEU (Myanmar Aerospace Engineering University) and the reason the satellite is being held is because apparently JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) can't reach the rector of the MAEU to make sure what the satellite would be used for.

The reason why they can't reach the rector of the MAEU is because he might have been arrested or is in hiding (https://www.myanmar-now.org/en/news/soldiers-raid-aerospace-...).

So, all in all, Japan is being careful and the situation in Myanmar is "undetermined". I think it is questionable where the "spying concern" is coming from, aside from being clickbait.

>Officials at JAXA could not be reached for comment. MAEU did not respond to calls seeking comment, nor did a spokesman for Myanmar’s junta.

It could be used for spying, because it's a satellite with cameras. If it has the capabilities to be used for spying is unclear, all the data would go through Japan anyway. Japan does not want to comment on it, persons responsible at MAEU are in prison or in hiding and the junta would probably lie anyway.
It burns about as well as any random piece of electronics in a plastic shell. Any of those could spread too. If you want a battery that's less flammable everything else in the room I guess you're out of luck, but I don't think that's a reasonable standard.
I'll elaborate: engineering's value-system is about intrinsic value; marketing's value-system is about extrinsic value.

Engineering is about the thing itself; marketing is about the market. Engineers want the thing itself to be good, by various metrics; marketing is motivated by market needs/wants and competition/alternatives.

For example, coherence and high performance are properties of a product, that an engineer might value. But for the market, a shopping list of properties at good-enough performance, may be what's needed.

OP's "tunnel vision", undistracted by the market, is how the best engineering is done. But of course, maybe nobody wants or needs this - that's the role of marketing.

Typically, engineering is market-led, with the marketing deciding what is to be built and engineering building it. But because engineers can create things that the market didn't imagine was feasible, it is sometimes engineering-led.

Henry Ford apparently said the market would have wanted "faster horses".

Startups ideally exist at this intersection, where engineeing creates things that never were, and marketing creates needs that never existed.

Note startups are often co-founded by a duo of engineering/marketing - because these inconsistent value-systems are easier to have in separate people.
The funny thing is that free speech doesn't exist. Nowhere do you get free speech. There are always limits. Even in the USA.

Let me tell you also a secret. It is not about political opponents disagreeing over their views. That is not the intolerance I refer to. You make it a sad word game.

It's the intolerance of discrimination, of hatred of (groups) of people. We in The Netherlands have laws against discriminatory speech and hate speech.

Last time I checked, SJW mostly are against stuff like discrimination. They are no threat. This is not a 'both sides' situation.
Last year Chrome published a great paper on this[1]. The summary is that we no longer think it is possible to completely prevent speculative execution bugs. A big focus nowadays is on providing tools (mainly via HTTP headers) that allow a website to opt-in to a more strict security model where specific sensitive resources can't end up in a process that is running untrusted code. If you're curious, check out this[2] document which explains a bunch of these different mechanisms.

Disclosure: I work at Google and am involved in deploying some of these features internally.

I was one of the developers on the team that wrote that article. The main point of the article was (and still is) not that PostgreSQL is better than MongoDB, but that PostgreSQL suited us better at that point. In hindsight I think it suited us better because MongoDB was relatively new tech, PostgreSQL was more mature. Especially if it came to tooling and diagnosis on -what- is going wrong when things go wrong, as well as searchable help on the internet.

The extra maturity of PostgreSQL allowed us to learn faster and evolve our software faster with less surprises. As a small team in a start-up this was essential to us.

Considering other articles on that "picked a solution and didn't understand it well" - I do thing they are very valuable.

They provide an insight on how well frameworks and technology support a learning curve. It's not about having only Pro's. it's about how easy it is to get yourself unstuck if you engineered yourself in a corner where you don't want to be.
