Blocking the IP means having something in the traffic flow. This would likely be a firewall if your aim is to block any "weird" connection from your network. But both firewalls and proxies are substantially more challenging than your run of the mill RaspberryPi Zero and PiHole.
A lot of shops are more heterogeneous, with mixed linux/windows/mac usage. One change I can think of is that arm macs can't run the same docker images. But all dev tooling has been ported ages ago by the linux-on-arm community.

It's easy. In China most people do that at noon, even there's no bed around. People usually take a 20 mins nap at their desks. Preferably after lunch because it's easier to fall asleep because the blood sugar would rise after eating.

Sleep at a desk might not be the most comfortable thing, but it's not bad at all once you're used to it. Or get a small bed around if you can. Sleep masks are surprisingly helpful, too.

Just relax and don't be upset if you cannot fall asleep fast, even if you can't fall asleep you'll find yourself more productive in the afternoon - it's like an implicit meditation. There are also times that people only actually sleep like 5 minutes out of 20, but it usually subjectively feels much longer than '5 minutes' because time feels longer when sleeping and it's very refreshing.

As time goes by it will become a habit and you'll fall asleep fast. The downside is you are likely to feel worse if you have things to do at noon and miss the nap.

IMO the best thing about taking nap at noon is it reduces the fear of sleeping too little at night because you know you can more or less take a nap and get a partial reset at noon.

FWIW, a few months ago we had a prospect ask, and I partially quote, "We don't see any reviews on the AWS marketplace,".

We can see too that most of competitors' reviews are clearly inauthentic. Also, in the B2B space, a public endorsement is infrequently given for various reasons. Being in cybersecurity makes it an awkward ask too - especially after SolarWinds got a lot of flack for publishing their client list on the website [1].

However, it would have to be done - as that prospect has made it clear. We are sticking by our guns though and will get there eventually with genuine reviews. But TBH, the path is not clear.

Because you can't both trust and not trust websites at the same time.

The web is built around the model that websites can create a session with remembered state (well ever since cookies were invented). You can't have that feature without also trusting the website with that shared state.

At least not with the level 9f interactivity expected. Maybe lynx could manage it, but you'll never get all the side channels out of an attack surface the size of a modern html5 browser.
The supply of gold on earth is finite.

An infinitely growing cryptocurrency presupposes perpetual economic growth, which requires ever increasing population and resource extraction.

Maybe that's realistic if we start colonizing Mars and mining asteroids, but it's not possible on earth alone.

If limited supply turns out to be an issue, competing currencies can be used to augment supply, it's basically already the case.
I have lost about 30lbs over the last 4 months. I walk two miles each day. This has been key.

Get your head around calories. For example, I had six slices of dominoes pizza last night, thin crust, which comes in at about 800 calories.

You could say I am tweaking what I have always eaten. Noticeable changes are much less bread, milk, butter, sugar cereal, processed meat and chocolate. More vegetables, salad, eggs, mushrooms, fruit, potatoes, pasta and rice.

My main recipe change is that most days I have a full bowl of homemade vegetable curry for lunch (made at weekend). Whatever vegetables there are around, chick peas, butter beans that sort of thing (followed by a small, good quality, chocolate and coffee). Some call this a Buddha bowl. I call it my Daniel bowl. The old testament reference will be lost on most I am sure ;-)

And finally, I don't eat from dinnertime to breakfast. I think this was all inspired by my being overweight and reading the stats on covid, overweight, intensive care.

Denmark’s state sector is responsible for 49% of GDP. That sounds a lot, but for the US the figure is 44%. Yet apparently the US is capitalist and Denmark somehow isn’t.

Does Denmark not have Facebook, Google, Amazon, etc? I think so. Capitalism is so often invoked as a bogey man like this, but it’s a red herring. Denmark is about 5% less capitalist than the US.

On the other hand we get this from the right in the US too, as though e.g. universal Medicare would turn the US into a socialist state.

As a European (a Brit, and a broadly conservative one) the histrionic railing against capitalism I see from the US left, and against the evils of state socialism on the US right, are just so tiresome. The main problem is it obscures so much behind invective fluff.
I think it's easy to take that view, and I used to think that way too.

But on closer examination, there seem to be plenty of people who rely on the government for their lifestyle, have higher status than most people, yet do not contribute. There's a huge number of boondoggles that "employ" hordes of people who pretend to do useful things.

To me this is a bigger problem than your usual chronically unemployed person, because mom and pop have already spent plenty of time warning the kids against this situation. People who end up there are probably not there voluntarily, and it doesn't offend my notion of fairness as much as the above group.
At first it was hard to read for me, but then I realized that in their design, the code always flowed from left to right, starting with the data you want to work on (or the data producer).

So it's always: data => process => process => process.

Left to right, no surprise, always the same thing first.

I kinda like the idea, although it's weird to get used to due to unfamiliarity.
> technology such as A.I. as a means for exerting illiberal control on citizens is not inherently a feature of capitalism.

It is, though. Say, for example, student loans, where an AI will score how likely is a single person to default on their loans, so that the company can refuse unprofitable people or increase their rates. It's very easy that the AI picks up some proxy metrics, such as zip code, or parental education level, or something like that, and decides to refuse students who would otherwise have paid reasonable-rate loans. However, by refusing them they cut an opportunity to improve themselves and reinforcing the vicious cycle.

In other words, capitalism cares about profits. AI gives capitalism a way to increase profits, sometimes with little accountability ("it's the AI, we are not actively discriminating against you") and without caring for actual persons or overall social good.
The current internet has hardly solved that problem either.
"all doctors and nurses in ICUs treating covid patients would get sick quite quickly."

But that's doctors and nurses in a highly controlled environment where we know there is an awful lot of virus particles around. That controlled environment doesn't occur elsewhere, so you are comparing apples and pears.

Leakage round the side, not wearing the masks fully, not changing often enough, etc. all apply in the field not the hospital, and even then the network effects can outstrip the filtering effect. Concentrations matter - as it does with radiation where high radiation areas damage the body and then when it drops below a certain level there is little impact at all.

Extrapolating from hospital to elsewhere is problematic and simply not supported by the evidence.

" These masks literally stop the virus from passing into your respiratory system."

Again in controlled environments, not in the field where that level of protection isn't available nor is it managed, changed or worn properly in all cases.

The reality on the ground shows that. There is no detectable effect outside really controlled environments without a high degree of curve fitting and bias. Texas has not exploded has it.

The downvotes say it all. People no longer wants to discuss rationally the possibility that they may be mistaken. It has become a religious crusade to do with identity.

The motto of the Royal Society is "Nullus in Verba" - take nobody's word for it. The essence of science is to question, not censor.

We appear to have forgotten that.

I think the article does a decent job at explaining why signal didn't go with existing privacy cryptocurrencies. The two points are:

* Signal wants to make money (and they cite Tor as an example of the problems of not making money)

* Monero's isn't fast enough.

The first point obviously isn't really very good defense and the second point could be considered refuted by this tweet[0].

Monero is simply unlikely to reduce their block time or the number of confirmation blocks. Given the work in integrating SGX, Stellar Consensus and fog calling it a scam is going too far but its not a good look for sure.

So many downvotes in this thread is an evidence of how divisive and unsubstantiated this topic has become.

Everyone is rock solid in their opinions. No way to swing it. They’re subscribed to left mostly on HN but the right is exactly the same.

No one has any sensibility and reason anymore. Echo chambers.

I am flagging this nonsense thread.
I do get the impression, looking in from the outside, that a lot of US media coverage of other countries is basically just propaganda for domestic consumption. Sure, there's usually a few carefully-selected actual facts slipped in when they help the narrative, but the overall impression given has less to do with actual reality than it does with helping to win local political arguments.
While what you point out is definitely true, a very important cause of the wealth gap in todays world that barely anyone talks about is the accepted engagement in lending money with interest (i.e. usury). It's heavily built in to the society today. It's not for no reason that this practices (along with derivative practices) is prohibited in the major 3 religions.

> Can't obstruct fingertips, those are necessary for the cane and braille.

Wear it on the left hand? Also, a glove is pretty quick to wear and remove.

> I'd worry about it competing with cold-weather gear like mittens

If it's useful, I don't think it would be an issue to create a "winter version".

> I was thinking of a rigid head-mount

If you hold your hand in front of your chest with the palm towards the chest, and wave it, you can appreciate how easy it is to scan the space in front of you. And the feedback would be directly on the fingertips, 1cm away from the sensor placed on the nail side of the finger, which makes for a very self-contained device. Also you get a free association between your self-perceived hand position and the space reading, which is nice. With a fixed head mount you need to constantly move your entire head to scan the space and the (tactile) feedback might be on an unrelated and less sensitive part of the body.
I'm confused. Denmark is a free-market capitalist country.
I mean even in germany it's not easy. The average salary of a SE here is about 65k before taxes. Most senior engineers I met make about 80-85k before taxes (~50k after taxes) (I am located in hamburg). Even for well booked freelancers about 1 in 10 people make more than 200k a year (140k being the average which results in about 72k profit after taxes).

I just had a quick look at google, netflix, twitter and facebook and they don't even offer any SE positions here. Amazon has some in Berlin but they pay around the same salary as stated above.
It might need some training, but it's possible. Especially when you are very tired from sleeping only 5-6 hours every day, it should be very possible have a very deep sleep even in a 20 minute "nap" (i.e., a real sleep loop that gets broken unhappily after 20 minutes).
> what's the point of their owners, what do they contribute?

Same applies to the existing owners of Uber and Waymo. If self-driving cars do take over the world, it makes no sense for this technology to be controlled by a handful of wealthy investment corporations, simply because they had the cash available to fund some of it at the start.
How exactly does homogeneity relate to adoption of any policy? Fuck off with that racist rhetoric.

Also welfare programs =/= socialism.
> If all the actual work is done by machines, whats the point of their owners, what do they contribute?

they philosophize and participate in statecraft. you know, the end game of human civilization.

or they play lots of video games, masturbate, and then die (hopefully happily).
They're probably just buying ads from something like Google Adsense without knowing where they'll be displayed.
> I just can't work on a single tiny laptop screen don't know how people cope!

I'm the opposite, I work exclusively on a laptop without external screen and I never understand people with many windows/panes :)

I try to limit distractions and I can't stand spending time finding the right window to focus. I have a fullscreen IDE (sometimes split vertically), a fullscreen browser, a fullscreen terminal (iTerm) split in 3 panes, and hotkeys to switch instantly from one to the other. I have other hotkeys to focus other programs (Slack, Datagrip)

I don't need to see everything at the same time, that's distracting and I'd rather whatever I'm working on to be fullscreen, I just need everything to be instantly focussable!

Free speech in US means that anyone can say anything, not that the things they’re saying are true.
I've been trying to find this article I read on HN a while ago on "The Germany technology effect". German researcher invents technology, Germans are suspicious of it and refuse to use it, another country picks it up and delivers a lot of value to the world with their name on the tech. Germany, like Scandinavians, has huge safety nets, free Healthcare, education and social housing. I'd say the more comfortable a country is the more reticence they have to adopt new technologies as it can disrupt the balance they stand on.

Fear of technology is not fear of capitalism. That's an immediate American perspective. Liberalism is their current enemy because it's corroding their society. What they fear is new tools for their oppressors to push the imbalance further. Socialist China and USSR had no qualms about using technology against their people and I imagine it scared the hell out of their citizens. This is the difference between many Cyberpunk's and Star Trek's vision of a post scarcity future. In the ones where we understand technology as a social sickness, the balance is tipped inequvocally towards one side and oppressing the masses.
Why do you associate high blood sugar with more sleep? Could it also be something else, like the cooking oil used with the veggies and meat/tofu?
If it was a concept in this situation we could easily prove it. Get people who pass a lateral flow test or PCR test into a room and measure their pre-sympomatic viral output.

Why hasn't that experiment been done?
That sort of leans rather heavily toward the personal-attack side of the spectrum, but I'm still curious what objective reasoning you might have for your statement.

EDIT: Saw the other comments. I see.
I wish the title more accurately reflected that the article is about an app and that the significant other appears only in that anecdote. At the moment it's a bit disappointing for people who were hoping there's more to this story.
Don't forget that the government on purpose disconnected the currency from precious metals (gold, etc.) in order to facilitate usurious lending, which allows the government to print money at will to pay off its debts, inflating the currency at the cost of the hard work of the citizens.

Kind of goes without saying also that 250k is going to go a lot further in the Czech Republic than it is in SF. 3000 EUR / month in Prague is going to get you a top end 2/3 bed apartment.
Wow. That should have been in the abstract. 452 adults hired for a one-month job intended to be sensitive to sleep deprivation sounds pretty robust.
You are contradicting yourself a bit in your second paragraph. Employees who want to be on the right side of history have stopped Google from doing projects related to weapons and Chinese censorship, which is literally making a difference.
The fear of technology is the fear of man's capability to misuse it. It's got nothing to do with economic or political preference and all to do with the fact that Machiavellian people exist in all societies.
What kind of web based UI for ZooKeeper can you recommend?
They're specific to Linux distribution families, so they don't really apply to those who are running Android or iOS. Also, getting your app into repository isn't really easier than getting it into app store (see https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMentorsFaq#How_do_I_get_a_spon...) and good luck if you're trying to make money from the app.

Thank you for posting this, both for the support against his disagreeable position and for the reminder that engaging with people isn't always the best option. Sometimes I start by wanting to make sure that an abhorrent viewpoint has at least a visible reply, so that any readers don't see the comment as evidence of a community consensus. But that leads to me getting emotionally invested in an argument, trying to address whatever tangential non-arguments get pulled back in.

Partly, the interface of Hacker News or any vote-based commenting system makes it hard to track comments overall. I can look up comment trees relative to my own posts, but that doesn't show me that the user "ilovepitchdecks" has been arguing along the same lines with multiple other people in sibling comments. Their viewpoint isn't in any way a community consensus, and is being soundly addressed by the community, but that wasn't readily visible just from one thread.

All in all, a bit of a ramble, but I wanted to say thank you for posting this and that sometimes I need to just downvote and move on.

> Someone who is relying on the government to fund their lifestyle is going to have lower status than someone who is contributing to the maintenance of their country.

The people who don't contribute to the country and have a lifestyle to speak of have, in fact, a higher status because they're rich as hell and often pay less taxes than the average person.

You don't want people living on welfare? Give them better alternatives. And no, minimum wage that effectively pays less than being unemployed is not what I mean.
Just discovered plantuml and liked it - i can use some visual aid if only i do not have to draw it.

Sequence and use case diagrams are useful. Class diagrams i would rather see in code.

I also misuse use case diagrams for arbitrary graphs. It is good to see if a graph i came up with looks too much like spaghetti. Helps to untangle it. But it is not proper UML and i could use the graphviz dot itself for it without plantuml frontend.
