I keep getting email from PayPal about their terms and conditions changing. I have a PayPal account, which I can't delete, because to delete it, I'd have to log in, but when I enter my details (which I know are correct; I use a password manager), I get a generic error message. Trying the password recovery procedure with my username gives me the same generic error message. I've emailed customer support twice, but they don't seem to be staffed by humans, because both times I got the same "you should use the password recovery procedure" template response, even though I explained it doesn't work.

I've created a filter to send them to trash, but it just feels so very sad.
Cool but we’ve had in browser databases since ages. Things like indexedDb and WebSql. But I guess it’s a cool WebAssembly experiment nonetheless.

And the compiler is allowed to remove the check, *even if not optimizing*. -O0 doesn't guarantee it'll be kept.

In practice compilers sould be considered to follow Murphy's Law: Undefined Behavior will work perfectly fine when on a developer's machine or when observed by any support or QA staff, but will occasionally cause intermittent problems on production machines when observed by users or during demonstrations to executives.

That is logically plausible. An insider purchase that occurs minutes ahead of a market-moving event is merely circumstantial evidence, but it is very strong circumstantial evidence.

One thing to note is that Peltz bought options as well as stock. Options suffer time decay. That is, all other things being equal, their value decreases with the passage of time. The better you can time your purchase to immediately precede a market-moving event, the less time decay matters.

In addition, Peltz and his associates started selling their positions within a minute of the scoops being published. Do you think they just happened to be looking at their trading screens during that minute of the day? I don't think they would have left that to chance.

(Edit in response to the comment below: Bloomberg scoops do not appear on the open Internet for at least 15 to 20 minutes after their publication on Bloomberg terminals. So RSS wouldn't explain trades within a minute of publication. If Peltz and his friends were Bloomberg terminal subscribers, they could have set up some kind of alert there, sure. But still, not something you want to leave to chance... Even if you have your phone with you at all times, you're not always able to respond to the alerts that come up.)

I'm pretty sure Linux ELF has always allowed you to specify the initial load address. When I first wrote StoneKnifeForth https://github.com/kragen/stoneknifeforth its load address was 0x1000, but at some point Linux stopped allowing load addresses lower than 0x10000 by default (vm.mmap_min_addr). I originally wrote it in 02008, using the lower load address, and fixed it in 02017. It's still not using 0x804800 like normal executables but 0x20000. ASLR does not affect this.

Maybe you mean that before ELF support, Linux a.out executables had to be loaded at a fixed virtual address? That's possible—I started using Linux daily in 01995, at which point a.out was already only supported for backward compatibility.

It's because the words 'ritual' and 'religious' aren't necessarily used in the way the public conceives of these terms. I've surveyed plenty of burials which I could plausibly describe as ritual in nature. That doesn't mean people were worshipping the person/people buried there, but it does mean I think that they were making deliberate, sequenced actions to accomplish a purpose and that these steps that were culturally sanctioned/regulated.

Secondly, the division you think should exist already does. Not all archaeologists are there digging in the dirt. Depending on the nature of the site and the area, it may even be uncommon.

But here's how a typical dig site functions: the lead archaeologist/excavation director is rarely on site to dig. They're doing other things. The site supervisor/crew chief (another archeologist) manages the site day to day and does lots of paperwork, directs everyone, handles visitors, and secondarily inspects finds. These two people in consultation with others produce almost all the interpretations you dislike. Below them there will typically be some number of other archaeologists, specialists, and grad students, who may dig, but often do other things surrounding the actual digging like flotation, taking coordinates, or managing finds. At the bottom are undergrads and local workers who do most of the actual digging and other manual labor. These are rarely involved in interpretation beyond recognizing artifacts, they purely "record the facts". The laborers in particular tend to specialize in excavation. It's a point of pride to many of them that they're better excavators than most archaeologists.
Since there were a lot of people clamoring for more updates, subscription licensing, etc. I just wanted to add some volume to the opposing viewpoint.

I registered my copy of sublime text maybe 8 years ago. Before that I had used Notepad++ for years as well. I love that sublime is a thing that I paid for once and I can trust that it will always fundamentally work without problems for my basic use cases. I never have to think about "oh well I'm not doing so much text editing at the moment, maybe I'll turn it off for now..." like I do with some other subscriptions. I'm not worried it won't work or will degrade because it seems stable as a rock. I primarily used Windows when I bought it, and I've been Mac only for 4 years, and it's still with me.

Sublime text is special and I love what you guys have done! And I appreciate that for my $80 or whatever it was, I can use this thing the way I use it right now and never worry about it again.

Honestly, I think people are being reactionary from how common abandonware is in the open source community (obviously sublime is closed source, but people who use sublime use a lot of open source), as well as the long delay between ST2 and ST3. I remember plugins with docs that said "I have abandoned this project because Sublime Text is dead" when ST3 was still in beta. It is... probably not great that when I check the About window on my copy of SublimeText, it says Copyright 2019 and the changelog on your website says October 2019. It is useful for a customer facing product to not look dead, but this is completely possible without being forced to ship updates or features on a regular basis. Just be mindful of customer perceptions and what the touch points are and be patient and consistent within your bandwidth.

I imagine the Lenovo Tiny with a Ryzen CPU would support the ECC RAM that was mentioned. M75Q, M715Q.
In that case it would compete with a heat pump. And unlike that one it can't double as AC.

There is a subtle difference between objective constructive discourse and pseudo-religious language fanboyism. The latter happens far more commonly than the former. In fact many who do the latter even believe they're conducting the former when in fact they're misinterpreting their own personal preference as objective fact.

To example this point: the fact that people do still sometimes need write some code in assembly really should demonstrate that your point would be better framed as "different languages serve different use cases so it's pointless convincing everyone to conform to a single language" -- which is precisely the point the OP was also making.
Yes, but you don't get equity or securities equivalents from Kickstarter. Here's an article about how $115B was scammed from crowdfunding investors in China (1). The biggest individual scam was a simple $8B Ponzi scheme.

Overbright indicators of any kind on electronics bother me. The brightest are indeed usually blue, but green and red are also offenders.
Dunno, I bought a new cable modem, which has 2.5gbe. Most new motherboards come with 1 or 2 2.5gbe, at least if you spend another $20-$40 over the cheapest. Even raspberry pi like widgets are coming with 2.5Gbe, like the hardkernel odroid h2+. The later has a 4 port 2.5gbe expansion card if you want a total of 6.

What "non-trivial" network is blocked by using 2.5 gbps? There are transceivers that let 2.5 gbe work with 10gb ports on older/common 10Gb switches. QNAP, linksys, and trendnet have a decent number of switches in the 5-18 port range, which seem splenty for most home networks.

>On the subject of danger. Literally everything we do is dangerous to some degree. Everything. Self-driving does not need to be perfect, but only better than human drivers.

The problem is this statement is written like a technocrat wrote it rather than someone who makes public policy. From an engineering perspective, it’s true that it would only need to be better than a human driver. To be implemented though, it needs approval in the public sphere and not just engineers. This presents a very real publicity problem.

You are correct that everything in life contains risk. Risk is defined as severity x probability. While the severity may be the same, I think humans judge the probability very different between human and autonomous drivers.

I think it’s rooted in the need for humans to understand what’s under the hood (no pun intended) to trust the decision making capability. We already have this with human drivers through the tool of empathy evolved over millions of years. We can reasonably assume we know what humans will do. (Incidentally it’s also why witnessing someone with mental illness puts us on edge). We have no such ability to decipher an autonomous car, especially for the layman. So this distorts the uncertainty in the risk assessment and any accident can disproportionately cause our assumption of risk to elevate.
This is surely a silly question (and probably a lot of devops will think I am an idiot), but what do you recommend to secure a PostgreSQL that is accesed by different IPs? We use Azure PostgreSQL database, which I guess they take care of most of the security, but they allow us to set up firewall rules, as only allowing connectins by established IPs.

My (our) problem is that we use a lof ot AWS lambda functions that read and write to the database, and they always execute from different (dynamic) IPs, so what is the best solution in this case?

“Evolved” meaning a tinkered, duct-taped, convoluted, purposeless, billion-year old Rube Goldberg abomination of a machine. Any analogy with a man-made device will, at best, be incomplete.
Wow. I'm a fan of text adventures (sorry, Interactive Fiction) but I never heard of this game. The premise seems intriguing... will have to play it!
It’s a rather obvious flaw. Any old city of Europe beats the generic, parking-lot dominated mid-sized American city in QoL. But Sim City makes it impossible to build anything like it. It’s the grid, the strict zoning, and the coal or nuclear plant built as close to the neighboring city as possible.

If your map starts with any hilly terrain, you’ll better bulldoze it now, or you’ll regret it later. If there’s any river, it better fit the grid.
Your point about correlation with porn shows absolutely nothing.

Every site hosting pornographic content finds a strong correlation between anything and porn. I literally just searched "foo" on Reddit with NSFW turned on and the results are 100% porn, ranging from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure to Foo Fighters related...content.

Do people watch porn with asians? Yes, and also with about every second noun that appears in a dictionary. I highly doubt Apple's filters are applied in a fair way. Do they block queries containing gingers? Germans? Japanese? Which continents, ethnicities and countries does Apple find too sexy? I don't think a company should be in a position where this kind of question has to be asked.

1. What would a device having "the capacity to store a telephone number using a random or sequential number generator" look like? That seems self-contradictory.

A numerical model like this is cool, but personally I think it can never be proved. How to prove or dis-prove geological theories about the detailed earth evolution on the scale of millions to billions of years is a big challenge.
Hey HN. I wanted to find a good youtube + soundcloud music library system (app, server, whatever) but found that there weren't many that worked, let alone were nice to use.

It seems to work quite well for what I wanted, so I figured why not share it.

Waste is easily the biggest straw-man concern there is against nuclear. The entirety of the nuclear waste produced by US nuclear grid electric power generation fits in a volume the footprint of a football field and 10 yards high [1]. We test waster supplies for uranium already because naturally occurring uranium sometimes gets into drinking water and it has to be filtered out [2].

Burying spent nuclear fuel in bedrock, with no aquifer poses zero risk. The only way it's getting out is by deliberate human intervention. Any nefarious group that has the capability of doing this could inflict far more harm by conventional means. And even if it somehow, by some mysterious force, leaks into the water supply we have infrastructure to detect it and filter it.

We dispose of materials far more toxic than nuclear waste on a regular basis.

Trying to explain away every incidence of successful covid-squashing as not applicable isn’t very convincing given that there aren’t any examples of jurisdictions that failed at a real attempt at covid squashing - every one of them succeeded. And this list is quite varied - it includes jurisdictions that are islands, that have long land borders, that are countries, that are sub-country-level, that are in the Anglosphere, that are outside of the Anglosphere, that have small populations, that have large populations, that are on three different continents, etc.

I guess again coming from the point of view of a vim user, I have friends who struggle to use my vim setup because I don't have surround.vim (a common plugin) installed. They use features in it multiple times per minute. For them a complete clone of the vim UI that didn't include an equivalent plugin would be insufficiently vim-like for them to switch.
It's funny, I'm like you with evil-mode/vim but opposite: after switching to evil-mode, I discovered that I like some of its changes and miss them whenever I use vim. The system clipboard integration, in particular, I really like (although, I'm pretty sure there's a setting somewhere in customize to disable that behavior).

Another is that evil-mode's implementation of `A` works the way I'd like it to in visual-line mode while it's just sort of annoying in vim
