TDP is worst case sustained heat output for selecting heatsinks, not representative of typical consumption at all. Typical CPU fans are also like 12V/0.25A max with power variable between 50 to 100% or so. 20W idle is thus very believable for a build by a sane person[2].

2: Personally I often end up with more substantial configurations like 12V/1.5A 80mm with couple 12V/1A as sides but my suspicion is my lack of sanity is a huge contributor to that
Still not seeing how that's any different from DNS. I mean yes, obviously it's another possible point of failure. But I don't see MITM protection as being any less important than name resolution on the modern web. Seems no less reasonable for a site to break due to lack of MITM protection than for it to break due to failure of name resolution. Normal users aren't going to be manually looking up and navigating to IP addresses anymore than they're going to be manually installing TLS certificates.
WOW, thank you very much Nokia!!

Having said that..i installed 3 days ago a 9front "cluster",

2x RPI3 as cpu server

1x RPI2 with 2 external HD's (2x7TB) as Storage Server

1x RPI2 (down-clocked) as Auth Server

Love it to work and play with it.

Ah, fair enough - I wasn't aware of that. If that's indeed what "deactivate" does, it's an option.

It still seems wasteful for space to me and more prone to bugs (e.g. if some hook is forgotten in the disable routine).
I’m all for learning how to do space flight better and getting all the regulations in place and getting experience with space launches. The only thing that worries me is whether we will end up in some situation like we are now with plastics that appear everywhere in our food supply chain and are a problem also because the unknown unknowns.

Will we still be able to operate society when we rely so much on all the services provided by These smaller satellites and there is a solar flare. Indeed, what if some event does trigger the Kessler Syndrome. Just like see radiation from Fukushima show at the us west coast in fish.

Will it be too late to do something with all the knowledge we have gained?
I am a bit confused by this technique, how can you aggregate data from multiple devices if there is no data sent from the device to a server or to another device?
It's not that. The current number two (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26555873) has a similar ratio.

527:291 vs 412:293
But the number matters to your point. Focusing on 70% of users to the detriment of 30% seems a lot less defensible than focusing on 99.9% of users to the detriment of 0.1%.

The claim you made was “chrome is hurting a large minority of users and they should make a browser in a more fair way” but this changes when you change your made up numbers to something more like “chrome is hurting a tiny minority of users with weird use-cases like me and I don’t like it”

FWIW, it feels like the problem is more that your use-cases don’t fit into web PKI, and I agree with you. But I don’t think harming the security of web browsing for the vast majority is the solution to those problems.
In my case being open source is a bonus - what I want is an on-premise modern linux environment that is economical to leave running 24/7, executes reasonably fast (including disk IO), and secure (auto update etc).

You can wish for people to remain focused on the ideas, but it is my strong belief that will not happen. People, in general, do not associate with people they dislike (for person or moral reasons).

Even if I was willing to work with Stallman, I believe many, many people will not.

If Stallman wished for this to be "just about the ideas", he could have never told jokes about "deflowering female virgins" because they have not used Emacs. I assume he told these kinds of jokes because he hoped it would make him, or the FSF, more popular. He was (in my opinion) wrong.
Did you seriously just state that you'd pay $200 for $250 worth of parts? And you want someone to design and integrate them for you on top of that?

edit: Ok sorry, apparently I miscalculated and it's actually possible to build this for less than $200.

There is a difference between "supporting old TLS" and "requiring old TLS". Neither are great, but one is terrible.
Bad Birds in Quarantine
Some anecdata as a hey.com user myself: It feels like they've optimized a lot for initial load of the main homepage (The "Imbox"). Obviously this is super important for an e-mail app... but once you start trying to load anything older than the most recent ~20 e-mails (Eg scrolling "The Feed"), then the load times can be horrifically slow (>10s, followed by a janky pop-in of HTML suddenly loaded). I'm not sure if this is caused by this technology in particular or if there's some kind of cache miss happening here, but coming from and comparing to gmail - which hey's makers like to dump on regularly - the performance is miserable. Sure, the number of transferred bytes is small and there's not a lot of JS to load - both of which I'm a big fan of, but the actual load time that I feel as a user is pretty bad for these AJAX calls.

Overall I'm a fan of what they're trying to do with Hey.com, but this particular use case feels like a big UX miss to me.
The smartphone is not the problem, it’s what you put on it. Once you got twitter and instagram and reddit, boy oh boy are you gonna reach for that thing when you’re bored even just a little.

So yeah, I agree. My smartphone also handles 2FA, PayPal and bus tickets. None of that is harmful to me, but very useful, and giving it up just for living without a smartphone seems pointless.
...his sister-in-law told detectives that he had been playing around with a weapon she thought looked like a “machine gun” about two days earlier...

Unbelievable. They knew he was hallucinating but it never occurred to them to tell authorities he had a deadly weapon.
And the amount of man-hours collectively spent on working around this terrible, terrible GC is immense.

It was the worst GC implementation I've seen in my life, could cause 0.5s GC spikes every 10 seconds on Xbox One even though we were allocating none or very little memory during gameplay. The amount of pre-allocated and pooled objects was bringing it down to its knees, because Unity's GC is non-generational and checks every single object every time. In the end we moved a lot of the data into native plugins written in C++. Nothing super hard, but you choose high-level engine to avoid such issues.

I've read that in 2019 they finally added incremental mode GC, that solves some of the issues but is still far cry from modern GC's.
If anything, it makes it inevitable. The probability of a coronavirus from a bat eventually escaping a lab that regularly studies coronaviruses in bats almost certainly approaches 100% over time.
I fell into the game again because of DE and a new friend whose into it too. With Youtube videos (explanations and competitive games, like Hidden Cup right now) and regular updates it got another dimension to it.

The DE of Age of I sucks though, the sprites generates from 3D models being less good than in II DE. I would has preferred they made a remaster like the C&C for this one.
Not everyone needs it, obviously. Many people want it, also fairly obviously. This subthread is discussing the preferences of families who do and those units will, by geometric necessity, have a lower maximum density.

Some of the benefits: During COVID, we put up a trampoline for the kids to play on and get some exercise. Private yard meant we didn’t have to ask or fight anyone about it and there’s no additional COVID risk because everyone already lives together.

We put up a vegetable garden as well; no one is bothered by it.

Plenty of people want to (or are okay with) live in high-density housing in an urban environment. Not everyone does; as you say, there’s no reason everything has to be one or the other.
Intel doubles down on chip manufacturing, plans $20B for new AZ sites
You severely lack any historical context about open source.

You are speaking like it was started by big companies to get free labor.

It was literally the opposite. It was started by people who wanted to share and have the source code so they could make changes and not be beholden to large companies.

You are literally complaining that about GIFTs! It is a gift that you can get the source code. You can use it, change it, learn from it. You are welcome!

You also keep associating open source to unpaid forced labor. What about hobbies?

Please tell me anywhere in the world where it is illegal to give away something I created.

It’s hard for me to believe you are not trolling. If you are not, I don’t know how to help you.

I think a lot of posters in this thread are getting their hopes up a bit too high and are starting to expect things from the UN that it was never meant to do. The UN peace corps is not a particularly mighty military force, they're not world police.

Basically, the UN is not Team America, and I don't think it should be.

(That's a reference to the movie by the same name btw, not a comment on relations with any nation)
Yes, indeed in the case of OpenSSL indeed but I was referring to applying the practice in general. With an open source product the lead time is even more important. Even then, they could release the binaries from a private branch/repository so that packages can be updated before the source is released.

Heroku apps run in a hyper scale cloud, sure, but they abstract away all of that. When you "graduate" from Heroku you have to move your entire app and re-architect the entire thing.

The idea behind this effort is to put you in a cloud native hyper cloud environment of your choice to start with and make that just as easy as Heroku. The big difference will be when you "graduate" - you'll already be in AWS or what have you, and under the covers isn't a black box but is a well formed set of GitLab primitives that you can now continue to use and expand upon.

> These people are attacking Stallman to reinforce their self-image of being "good" and "progressive".

This is a poor assessment, as it doesn't account for the fact that people cultivate the environment they want to be a part of. Removing people like Stallman from positions of influence within the community changes the tone of the community; while you may believe that change would be for the worse, it's better to acknowledge that others genuinely believe the inverse, rather than dishonestly dismissing it as blind reinforcement of self-identity.
Sundar Pichai got a masters from Stanford and an MBA from Wharton. I also think you are not reading the other points that JIRA is used by more than just IT, it is a project management tool used by everyone and isn't just for "bottom of the barrel" employees.
> Deprecation of these versions is intended to assist developers as additional justification to no longer support older (D)TLS versions and to migrate to a minimum of (D)TLS 1.2.

Seems to me like this document is trying to be a tool for developers to support telling decision makers that using those versions is discouraged.

I had a film class in college, and the instructor used Godfather 2 as a film better than the original.

At the time, I agreed, but not anymore.

Both are terrific.

I wonder if I will ever see another great film again though, and it’s not because I’m aging.
How do you get to $250? 256GB NVMe runs for about $50 and a PI 8GB + peripherals for ~$100.
They are supposed to be complaint with whichever country they are operating in or simply get out of that country. Anything else is basically white people projecting their virtues on other countries.
If hypothetically a novel virus caused a global pandemic originated within the US they certainly would say the magic words "national security" and refuse to cooperate and take a hardline against whistleblowers if one of their government labs was suspected. The US Government has a pattern of slapping top secret on their mistakes because people getting rightfully mad at them would be "bad for national security".

It is fucked up and not but governments are reflexively secretive so I don't think it says much about China. A superpower or nation-with-delusion-of-superpowerdom would refuse to disclose something like that regardless unless forced by internal political pressure - meaning there isn't anything to read in. They would likely rationalize resistance as "going transparent because enough of the world thinks this opens up rumormongering as a form of intelligence!".
You forget the US made them the country they are today. [1][2]

All new languages are extremely important innovations until they age a bit and get severe warts. Rust is already getting them. See: https://theta.eu.org/2021/03/08/async-rust-2.html

Rust is already getting foot-guns like C++ did.

Modern C++ (>C++17) with RAII and neat libraries is already an elegant, high performance and high-productivity language with good IDE/editor support.

And its not like C++ is standing still. You have standardised concepts, modules and co-routines out this year. Modules will fix several of C++'s shortcomings wrt build tooling and setup. I am personally looking forward to C++ 20 co-routine support in all the major compilers - will enable one to develop graceful-async, portable and stable libraries without all that Rust churn needing re-writes all the time.

Competition is good, but its best to take the Rust blinkers off a bit.
A problem here is that people interpreted some common sense advice like SOLID into "break everything into classes pointing to each other".

Which creates maximally cache hostile code very fast -- any operation is often several pointer dereferencing (eg. back-and-forth to RAM).
What I found better than calls, at least with my wife, is Zello - a walkie-talkie-over-IP-app. What seems to work for me is that the talk over it feels natural. Like you're shouting something from other room. It is synchronous and asynchronous at the same time. I respond when I can, there is no call hanging, the conversation is stretched in hours and it naturally fills gaps when we don't see each other.
Using Let’s Encrypt for internal servers
On a related note, thinking of setting my personal site to TLS 1.3 only. It's still allowing for TLS 1.2 with strong chipers, but except for shutting out anyone using older smartphones or operating systems, what's the harm?
Could I fall out of favour with Google & co due to compliance reasons?

Bell Labs permitted UC Berkeley to fork and distribute Plan 9 under the GPL, but the main repository was still under the Lucent Public License or something weird like that. Relicensing under the MIT license will maximize the number of people who can use the code, even if the foundation they created does not catch on.

> Since its founding, Dominion has been chosen by thousands of election officials throughout the United States to provide the technology to effectively administer transparent and fully auditable elections

As if the choice itself lends credence to the security of the system. SolarWinds was used by virtually all branches of the government and it was hacked, substantially so. You want to make the claim that Dominion Systems are unhackable?

Dominion does have links with other voting manufacturers. They purchased Diebold Systems and Sequoia and integrated their technology and assets into their company. That whole industry is a revolving door of politicians, lobbyists, and yes, even Chavez and Maduro backed Venezuelans.

Even Huffington Post covered this as recently as 2010: "EXCLUSIVE: On Heels of Diebold/Premier Purchase, Canadian eVoting Firm Dominion Also Acquires Sequoia, Lies About Chavez Ties in Announcement" https://www.huffpost.com/entry/exclusive-on-heels-of-die_b_6...

Intel's TDP is more based on the max the CPU would draw, when all the various Turbo modes are disabled. Which reflects approximately zero real-world deployments except for the very low-end parts where Intel disables the Turbo modes for product segmentation.
I want to be good at my job, but not necessarily a senior dev. At my company, you're required to work extra hours as a senior dev, which really negates any pay raise. Not to mention, I've filled the role of senior dev and even tech lead for a couple years with the politics getting in the way of the official promotions (and management not following HR policies).

The fictional Spice (Melange) is used by ordinary rich people to live longer.

Ask HN: Am I wasting my time working as a software engineer in Western Europe?
- bachelor and master degree in computer science

- around 8 years of experience

- pretty average developer (can deal with Ansible, the command line, MySQL, Go, Vue, and tons of other toys; can talk about Turing machines, the pumping lemma, CORS, or about the sudoers file)

- pretty average guy to work with

- earning around 75K Euro (gross) per year as an employee (30 to 40 hours per week). 30 days vacation per year (plus public holiday)

- currently, sort of "tech lead" within my team

I cannot complain about my current lifestyle, but I see that I'm approaching the "glass ceiling" for software engineers in Europe (I don't see myself ever earning more than 100K Euro as a simple software engineer) and I cannot help but think: why on earth I don't quit my job and work for an American company from Europe? I would be doing basically the same but from starters I would be making double (avg. of 150K USD/year according to Google) but more importantly, the "glass ceiling" in USA is above 150K USD.

Even after taxes and health insurance, the net amount each month is way higher with a American salary.

The more I think about it, the more stupid seems my current situation. I think the main thing that's holding me back is that I would probably need to work as a contractor instead of an employee, and this is something I've never done before.
