The problem is that many Iranians do not agree with the current government or the revolutionary guard. Some of them have access to key infrastructures such as the building that contains the centrifuges.

Reverting to old methods might not work so well when you face that situation.
I’m a happy user of 1Password, and while I agree that it’s good to build a product for yourself, I’d also argue that it’s valuable to be keenly aware of where you - or your employees - differ from your other users.

I pay yearly for a subscription and sync via 1Password.com

I don’t pay a subscription because I think that it’s important or necessary to sync via 1Password.com, though. I’d happily sync via Dropbox (though it sounds like that has been broken for years and isn’t getting fixed) or iCloud.

I pay because I know it costs money to keep software working nicely with its surrounding environment and to keep it secure.

Apart from the item history - which I disagree needs a server - the other feature you list aren’t of interest to me. So while I’m a big fan of the product, and I might be an outlier, I hope you’re keeping a keen eye on your users’ motivations for starting or continuing to pay for subscriptions.

The difference is that binary packages for Tier-2 and lower are on a best-effort basis, and might be more or less out of date depending on the available package build hardware. For arm64 we now have multiple high-end arm64 servers and can guarantee packages will be built in a timely fashion for all supported branches.
Let me throw out a hypothetical, you're helping a band get off the ground.

They just need a landing page for people to find out about the shows and by merchandise. Wix and other website builders work fantastically for this. I consider myself a pretty decent programmer, but I absolutely hate front end development so I tend to use a website builder. The only thing you need for my website is a link to my privacy policy ( Apple makes you create a page for this ) and a link to download the game.

I actually did work with a band once and the leader got mad with me when I suggested hosting our own thing. He prefer to pay the $20 a month for Wix and so we went
Locally, neuromodulators disperse through diffusion, unlike neurotransmitters which are hardly given a chance to travel far from the synaptic cleft they are released into, due to reuptake channels and enzymatic degradation.

But neurons that release neuromodulators innervate large portions of the brain; that is, when one such a neuron is active it releases neuromodulators all across the brain.

The mechanism how Neuromodulators can have specific effects in spite of their global delivery is one of the many open questions about brain function.

Part of the solution is that different neuron types respond differently to the same neuromodulator. Depending on the abundance of certain neuron types in a circuit, different circuits can also respond differently to the same neuromodulator.
Right?! Sorry for the empty comment, but I'm fascinated to know this is happening. If there's one place that bombs are unwelcome, it'd be a nuclear facility.

One also wonders whether an Israeli planted the bomb, or an Iranian. You'd have to be pretty daring either way.

>There is zero incentive for Chromium forks, let alone any other browser vendor, to implement/leave-in this technology.

Chrome has a 60-70% market share on its own. Most people don’t even know the difference between “the internet” “the www” and “chrome” So, there is zero incentive for the 30% of non-chrome browsers, but most of the people who don’t use adblockers anyway will be sucked into this.
Ask HN: Do you use Plaid and give them your banking login info?
It seems like such a horrible idea. I want to send money (to buy a Tesla, or to fund a Coinbase account, or whatever), and so I have to... give a random company the login credentials for my bank? Give them access to all of my business and personal accounts, all of my children's accounts, CDs, IRAs, etc.

It's FAR more than they need. To this day I don't understand why anyone would use Plaid.

You don't really need either. Tying the keys to the device was sufficient.

> What! :- ) Well founded fears, I'd say: I've been typing in Colemak for 10+ years and if I switch to QWERTY I'm significantly slower than before I started using Colemak.

I'm not a Colemak user, but from my experiences with Dvorak, I have a theory on why this happens. Precisely because it shares many keys with QWERTY!

Explanation: when I type in Dvorak or QWERTY, the only hesitation is when I type the first letter of a text I need to type. Then, a muscle memory kicks in and I type without thinking. The only exception: words starting with letter "A". This letter is special, because it is the only key that has the same position in both Dvorak and QWERTY!

So when I type words starting with "A", my muscle memory kicks in not on first typed letter, but on second! With Colemak, I guess this effect might be in full swing for almost every letter you type, and THAT would be a significant problem. So what is sold as being Colemak's advantage is probably a disadvantage if you need to type on different types of keyboards.

Surprisingly enough, I see a lot of people installing whatever tools their company uses on their personal phone/smartwatch _without anybody in the company asking them to do so_. It just seems like an "obvious" thing to do for people. I've never had to argue about it with anyone as you did, but if it happened I can already see the other person asking me, surprised, why I don't have Slack on my phone and how do I keep in touch with work outside of the office.

> Destroying inner cities is not helping.

I wholefully agree with you. That is harmful. Though, it is only a small subset of the people who are guilty of that. So we should speak to those people instead of the whole group that is critical of the current police force.

> Portland just decided that to combat all of the shootings and crime happening in the city's parks they will add more unarmed park rangers.

Well, you have got to start somewhere. That are structural problems in the police force which aren't going away anytime soon. We should do something about that. We've learned that arming police more certainly isn't helping.

I'll be surprised if, in 10 years, we wouldn't conclude that Portland's efforts were helpful to come to a solution to the problem. Solving problems, also what OP is talking about, is a long term effort.

You're so right about [1], when possible. I should've rearranged them years ago on this mid-2012 MBA 11" .. maybe I should actually do that, today. I'm quite used to 104-key qwerty boards, but if all my keyboards could say aoeui they totally would.

For those chiding the practice, it's not for beginners-still-learning, it's for actual-years-running-users trying to type one-handed once in a while.

As for looking at a qwerty keyboard from a dvorak mindset, I'd say dvorak "wins" in my head like my right eye's image wins over my left. I look down and "see" aoeui .. pyf .. dhtns. But it's still confusing.

The person I'm replying to says that PGP is hard to use because there's so many options you have to know and use correctly. I completely agree with that, its UX is most probably the main reason it isn't more widespread. But that doesn't invalidate PGP itself: the format is still useful, we have the tools to use it correctly. So I'm saying that using PGP crypto is still worth it, especially if all the bad bits (configuring, tuning) are managed automatically by the application.

It’s a bug tbh. It used to be aliased to Node.JS and seems like it doesn’t now. Will fix.
Maybe you’re passing it to some other function that doesn’t do that, or you don’t want to add some ordering flag to the datatype because that complicates things.

But the purpose of the question of course is to be an easy question showing basic competency in recursion and pointer usage.
>Oh no doubt it's unlikely. Does that mean we should build suburbs instead of walkable neighborhoods? I'm not sure why it would.

I am not sure.Should we? I think living in the suburbs (and now I dont have a picture of american suburbs in mind) is something that a lot of people imagine as good life.Is it sustainable? Dont know. But is city life in mega cities sustainable? Also not.

>I'm not even arguing for that. I'm saying just stop building more suburbs. The cities will retrofit over time on their own as it starts to make economic sense.

Are cities better than suburbs? Asian megacities definitely are not solving the problem (although I am not arguing they should move to the suburbs :D).

>I live in the suburbs. Most people have no choice in living in the suburbs or not. The suburbs are simply built, and then that's all the choice you have.

I am not sure they are simply just built (maybe in the US?). Here in Europe suburbs are built because they provide better value for the price. Apts in cities are expensive and too small.

>Yea... tell me about it as I have to close my windows because every day there is constant mowing, leaf blowing, and weed whacking and people driving loud cars and motorcycles. Oh and dogs barking. Though that's in the suburbs.

Point taken. But you can definitely build a house / retrofit it that can mitigate the noise.That's much harder to do in a highrise building.

>Why would you need public transportation to walk down the street? You'd just walk.

I do that here in Europe.Cities are mostly walkable and yet most of the destinations that I want to go to are more reachable by car than by public transport.

>Why would you then trust the government to build and maintain roads and highway infrastructure?

Because they dont.They gain points by mismanaging public resources (building roads and highway infrastructure leading to nowhere (or very sparsely populated areas).

>I don't think technology can solve the problem. It's a public policy one. We need subtractive solutions, not additive ones, in my opinion.

You can live comfortably without being affected by these solutions.There's many more people that will having more tough because of that.

Google is buying service (traffic) from Mozilla. It is not a donation.
No, I'm talking about the company/organization itself. A non-profit like Signal can be all high and mighty and principled as long as the bills are being paid (by whom?) but once that dries up (or never materializes) the temptation to monetize by doing things that go against the original mission becomes greater.

Let's Encrypt doesn't have a reason to try to blockchain their certs because their bills are being paid. Signal clearly wants more money (they openly state that the coin will pay $1m/yr to Signal).
Oh, but the traditional pipe model can also produce data lazily (wait until a given FD is open before producing output), so that wouldn't be that much of an issue.

That wouldn't change much from the pipe model. At least on wayland, wl-copy forks to the background. If you wanted the producer to finish producing data and exit, surely you could make a flag for it in the receiving program, or pipe it trough one that does.
Steve Jobs was extremely puritanical and considered protection from the very existence of porn to be one of the few most notable goals of the app store (and I am not being sarcastic or hyperbolic: he seriously once used the phrase "freedom from porn").

> When questioned about Apple’s role as moral police in the App Store, Jobs responds that “we do believe we have a moral responsibility to keep porn off the iPhone.” Better, is what he said next: “Folks who want porn can buy and [sic] Android phone.”

FreeBSD is such an excellent operating system, I applaud all developers and users that have kept it going all these years.

I've been toying around with it in a virtual machine since 13.0-RC2, in many ways it can feel like a foreign system (compared to my Linux background), but there are a lot of nice things that also make it feel "greener" on the FreeBSD side. It's honestly hard to understate the value of boot environments and the boot loader's capability to swap between them or even roll back to a spool checkpoint. It makes almost all upgrades and system changes risk-free.
Yes, they work as stereo headphones from any bluetooth source. I was speaking in the context of surround sound in headphones... AirPods Pro's spatial audio feature only works with a few surround sound formats and only with an iPad and iPhone. Spatial Audio is not supported on Apple TV or any other bluetooth device (for now).

To use a lighting to 3.5mm connection, I think you meant the AirPods Max, not the AirPods Pro. On that note, the AirPods Max have the same spatial audio support/restrictions as the AirPods Pro.
I think you might have tried a bit more. I'm typing this on my wife's qwerty laptop and have zero issues with blind typing on it, just a little more strain from having to move fingers more that it is possible on Dvorak.
Agreed, please just be a chat app.
I have no idea where you are from, but "absconding" isn't really something the police get involved in.

Either the driver has a right to be in the truck, at the location he is at, or not. If he does, the police don't care, because there is no crime. If he doesn't, that is theft.

If it is theft, they don't let the driver drive on with a promise to behave; the truck (and all the goods in it) get impounded to be claimed by the company and the driver gets hauled off to jail. That would be a way worse outcome for the company.

It would have been more interesting to read your reaction to their answer to this concern, which is:

> We’ve only been testing this in beta in one country, so lots of people haven’t seen this yet and are imagining the worst. Don’t worry, it’s an opt-in feature, so if you don’t ever want to use payments in Signal, you never have to.
>Because at least old money understands the concept of noblesse oblige.

You can just count in your city how many buildings, libraries, concert halls and similar have been built by the rich of old, and how many by the rich of new.

Maybe the new rich give to ONGs instead, but ONGs can be seen as just another institution to exert power, influence markets, and buy people by giving them a position in ONGs where you invest heavily. On the other side infrastructure is infrastructure, yes, it makes you look good, but you have to build something real and solid that is easy to evaluate.

I'm quoted in the linked article, and I wanted to add just a bit more here:

It's hard to overstate how entrenched the app store paradigm has become. When you tell people "Hey, I released a new web app" the first thing they do is go to the App Store and type in the name. If the app doesn't show up there, they get confused and don't know where else to look.

Really, the only benefit of the App Store model is discovery – much more so than the claimed benefits of curation or security. The web offers an equal, if not better, security model – all web apps are sandboxed and must ask for permission to do anything. The browser sandbox is the most secure and well-tested sandbox in existence today. It has to be much better than native OS sandboxes alone since it can't lean on "curation" to keep outright malware off people's devices. The web sandbox keeps you safe even when you click a link to totally random website that hasn't been pre-checked by anyone.

The main issue is web apps just aren't discoverable right now. When you search Google, you get a lot of random stuff mixed in with web apps. I don't think consumers care what the underlying tech is – they just want solutions to their problems whether from a "PWA app" or a "native app". It's indistinguishable to consumers, except in discovery.
One of the weird things is how often you are tracked just by the building sensors. Your phone really track you but there are other ways.

In the Isabella Stewart Gardener heist documentary they looked at when the motion sensors where triggered in each part of the museum (this was in the 1990s) to get a sense of how long the thieves were in the building and where they went.

When I worked at a home power monitoring company (monitoring by circuit breaker), we could tell very clearly that no one was home at my bosses house when he was on vacation (his house was one of our test locations). It was a little wierd.

A higher up got was told by their spouse when he noted she was home early and she asked how he knew (he was monitoring the power usage). that he could keep his toys but don't talk to her about it. Someone wondered if they should talk to the dog walker about how the walk was really short on tuesday.. We switched to commercial monitoring thankfully.
I think this is not an interesting link drop. And I'll go one step further - I went out of my way to try to volunteer here.

There's no indication that Iran is any less deterrable than every other nuclear power.

We didn't start WWIII when Kruschev banged his shoe at the UN like a maniac, it would also be a bad idea to do it over Iran's posturing.

The US killed their national hero last year and we got a measured, proportionate response rather than lighting Iraq on fire.

Trying to pre-emptively "bomb Iran into the stone age" would not only be barbaric, it would result in a hail of scuds hitting Tel Aviv. You don't want that.
