They are offering it for just the price of shipping right now, so profiting on the hardware doesn't seem like it's the strategy.
Does this apply to a phone call? To a zoom call with five people in it? Should trying to stop someone from doing something, even if abhorrent, in private, really be a priority? I can only see this ending badly. If there is a link to real world crimes, sure, intercepting a discussion is one method available to detect / deter / deny / disrupt, just like a wiretap. But (and maybe I misunderstand your comment) beginning with the idea that we should try and prevent conversations we find abhorrent from happening is, well, abhorrent.

TL;DR you can probably s/mRNA/adenovirus vector/g although I will grant that adenovirus vector seems less "experimental" than mRNA does
The United States doesn't grant you privileges for being a Christian or being white. The United States doesn't label itself as a "white country."

Israel grants privileges for being Jewish and denies citizenship if you are from Palestine.
There's the profiles in Vivaldi. That's what I use and I found it to be better than Firefox's multi account containers because I don't have to choose the container each time I open the site.

Interesting. I can relate to the urge of correcting typos as they are produced. This only happens to me when I see the text though.

I have come to look away from the text input or simply close my eyes to fight that urge. Right now, as I write these words, my eyes are closed. I peek at the text every now and then to correct typos, formatting and grammar; and am often surprised by how little typos I've made.

It also helps me focus on what I'm writing instead of constantly parsing the text I have just typed.

On note-taking: I can anecdotally confirm that taking notes like this definitely makes me feel like I'm learning a lot more and understand what I'm writing down.
It uses the phone's Spotify app to access the Internet, so I would imagine the restrictions from app stores still apply.
It seems that by "ambient" they mean ambient pressure but not ambient temperature.
here's why this is a bad idea:

- i generate random passwords for myself (yay)

- i share these random passwords with my team (ugh... git i guess huh!)

- i share some of these random passwords with my family (you try teaching a 6 year old git, and a 37 year old woman who already doesn't want to change her habits)

- i use these passwords on my home computer (windows), work computer (osx), android, ios

Yeah, not going to switch away from 1password any time soon.
Ah yes that makes more sense. Are these containers and VMs native or running under Rosetta 2?

I use VMware Fusion a lot on my Intel MBP but haven't had a look at virtualisation on the M1 just yet. Waiting for it to mature a little more.

>lauded mainly by professors who can’t stand that their student’s attention can’t be held captive by their awful soapboxing

I spent five years as a university professor, and I did not care at all whether my students were taking notes on their laptops, or trying to multi-task by studying for something else (or even checking their Facebook, or whatever). I know I did the same (studying, not Facebooking; I'm too old for that) when I was a student, and I'd rather have had them in class, no matter where their cost-benefit analysis directed their moment-by-moment attention.

If it was a discussion-oriented class, then we arranged chairs in a circle; I sat (very non-hierarchically, lol) in the same circle. No problem there.

If it was a more "conventional" classroom setup, then I always asked the laptop-users to sit in the back. This was because I'd observed (our department had us sit in, once per term, on a colleague's class, which was excellent) that students frequently viewed distracting material in class. I don't know which was worse: the dude looking through photos of his girlfriend not-quite-nude, but definitely NSFW; or the girl reviewing for an A&P test, and flipping through really gory human dissection photos. No one needs to see those.

I always explained the reason to my students, with those exact examples, and no one ever had a problem -- though I remember sometimes seeing a few red faces on the first day as the laptop-users switched seats.

You're totally right, though, about adults making their own decisions about knowledge processing. I always tried to respect students' autonomy to the greatest extent possible. I saw my laptop rule as an important part of that ethos.
> The ideal strategy without hindsight was conventional wisdom: Protect the vulnerable and stiff upper lip for the rest.

China, Vietnam, Australia and New Zealand used strict lockdowns to eliminate community spread, and then largely opened things up again. People in those countries have been able to live much more normal lives than people elsewhere during the pandemic. With hindsight, that was clearly the correct strategy: eliminate the virus, then reopen and keep a hawk eye out for any new cases.
it couldnt be easier to keep up to date across devices:
pass git push
pass git pull

there are also at least two browser addons both of which work very well for filling fields
Oh yes I have noticed the "middlemen" given my background and experience as I have formerly been one multiple times since the mid 90s. My efforts are currently undercutting the middlemen and their proliferation as the number of payments companies alone in the last few years has exploded as has fees which are crushing even established brands which have little to no understanding when it comes to payments.

If one did not already know online payments originated and was perfected from adult content consumption just as many technologies were but history shuns the stigma - the stories I have. Worth the watch > en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_Men_(film)

Tangential question: why doesnt keepass or keepassx autosave?

Why does it even have the antiquated save button to begin with?

I have permanently lost access to some things due to this, as other password managers don’t have retro features like that. Usually when I’m using unix or linux, its on an OSX keyboard so even my reflexive shortcut key saving has buttons flipped.
Yeah, FORTRAN made some bad choices. In its defense, it first appeared in 1957. There wasn't much language design or compiler writing knowledge back in those days.

When we were in college learning FORTRAN, students would ask for help from the teaching assistants at the computer center. One big problem was FORTRAN allowed horrible spaghetti code because GOTO statements could be used anywhere. It was easy to jump into and out from loops. The TAs had a tough job.

It didn't help when people would deliberately mess with the TAs by asking about code with language features similar to those in the article you linked. Something like IIRC after 47 years:

DO 15 I = (1, 100)
purported loop stuff goes here
15 final statement of loop

That is also not a loop control statement. Instead it is an assignment to a complex number.
Just like you did in the browsers back in the day when you imported code from URLs with <script src="">, the "deno way" is supposed to follow browsers in these regards as well.

And you can always use `npm`, `node_modules` and `import maps`[0][1][2] to kind of mimic "nodejs way".

Because of the lack of transparency. Signal users are not naive and can deal with the truth. If they need money, or want to be profitable why is there zero mention of in in the explanation? Whatsapp was dead to me the instant zuckerberg said it will always be free.

Don't all vaccines have some extremely low but nonzero probability of killing someone?

Yes, it's automated.
If i were in Putin's shoes I would've coordinated attack on Ukraine with Chinese attack on Taiwan. That would've split US attention and resources.
This looks great, don't get me wrong, but after so many problems with a Surface Book I completely lost faith in Microsoft's will to make solid laptops.

I'll definitely look for reviews of this unit because it really does look great (including ability to repair and replace components). But I'll be carefully optimistic for now.
Sorry, I misunderstood what you were referencing.
What does Keepass do that pass doesn't?
> but those group segregations are not coming from particular "networks of websites", but instead from the browser itself.

Wait, I thought the whole point was that third parties could define what a "cohort" is, and the browser would handle determining whether or not you belong in them?
And if you want to improve your programming skill and maybe build something of your own one day, then there are a lot of accountancy-related problems that can be solved with fairly basic programming skills (and a lot of accountants who can't program but would love to automate parts of their job)

Probably more interesting as well as better paid work dealing with firms that value your understanding of French accounts than firms that just want the cheapest offshore developer to tweak their WordPress installation. Even if you can live quite well in Madagascar by being in the second group.
You and the toplevel commenter may be talking about two different kinds of systems.

You are describing "well managed communities". HN is arguably one of those. Many topic-specific forums, IRC channels, mailing lists, and communities on platformy things that seek to reinvent those are as well. They tend to be centered around a topic or purpose and have rules, guidelines, and social norms that facilitate that purpose.

I think the toplevel comment is talking about global many-to-many networks where people connect based on both pre-existing social relationships and shared interests (often with strangers). Those require a different model, and centralized moderation based on a single set of rules is probably not the best one.
I think this is outside of the threat model of most password managers -- your desktop search history (whether in your shell, Spotlight, or whatever) is leaking equivalent and probably more detailed information.
The Arch Wiki is alright if you run Arch, but I definitely prefer well-written and fully up-to-date manpages from the offset. For starters, it doesn't require me to open a web browser first; it also doesn't depend on me having network connectivity at any particular time.

My take is definitely different from GP: I find FreeBSD to have a much better documentation story compared to Linux (even Arch).
People who rejoice about this study because they want to use it to defend policies that are criticized for potential negative mental health impacts willingly neglect the nature of suicide: Of course sucide numbers go down because many suicidal people want their death to be noticed.

Say the policies are lifted and suicides go up again, will the rejoicing ones account for that as well? Of course not, they will rather gaslight the argument by blaming the increase on the lifting
What's surprising is that he gave away 49% of microsoft which would have made him the first trillionaire at current valuations...

I hope that was given as stock to the foundation...

Ahh, the natural progression of every tech company ever. Make everything a platform, an aggregator. Collect rent.

Do Surface Laptops have a healthy battery charging feature? E.g., does charging stop at a specific threshold like 60% with Lenovos?
I used to work for an IoT startup that is doing vehicle tracking. Along with the main market of rental cars, the client also wanted to track rural vehicles for off-road distances.

Over a few months, I designed and implemented an algorithm for counting the distance travelled off-road. It took a TomTom road map of the whole country (not a cheap license fee), divided the trip into pairs of points, checked whether each segment intersected with or came within 10m of a road, and finally made a total of the distance. There were deviations (odometer compared to on road + off road straight line distance) but it was good enough to be usable, and we shipped it. It also generated reports for reclaiming road tax for off-road driving.

In practice, the client realised that our $7 per vehicle per month fee for the service will only save them $2 or $3 in road taxes for their most off-road vehicle. Just because it's technically exciting doesn't make it financially logical.
My suspicion is that this may not tell the full story. For example, availability-wise I bet there are differences between these databases. As just one example, I bet this person wasn't running with a multi-AZ setup for Upstash, since https://docs.upstash.com/overall/databasetypes says "Multi Zone Replication" is a premium feature. Whereas DDB doesn't even let you store your data in a single AZ, AFAIK (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerg...).

(My understanding is shallow compared to real experts, but even so I know this is a deep topic and this is only one example of the type of thing you'd want to consider when figuring out whether to take this comparison at face value.)

> - i use these passwords on my home computer (windows), work computer (osx), android, ios

All of these have support for GPG, yes? So pass will work fine with them. It's just a wrapper around GPG.
Open options, enable autosave, enjoy.
>The password store does not impose any particular schema or type of organization of your data, as it is simply a flat text file, which can contain arbitrary data.

That whole section, the options (or lack thereof) is a mess...
Sorry, I meant more on the UI side. Like if I'm on a website that needs a login, do I run a pass command in a local terminal, then copy and paste?
> 3:2 screen ratio, I really wish the whole PC industry including Mac moves towards it. Even 16:10 is not enough when we increasingly clutter the vertical space with OS menus, controls, dock. And then Browsers address bar, tab bar, then we have the WebSite layout which is also taking vertical space at the top for navigation.

I hated the 16:9 popularity of computer flat screens. Definitely agree about needing lots of vertical space. I was content with 1600x1200 for years, and then 1920x1200 (1.6 vs 1.5 ratio) was available that was acceptable. Amazing how much smaller 1920x1080 felt, and is just a joke for anything other than watching videos (maybe games? i'm not a gamer) in my daily usage. Never tried one of those rotated 90, but it might be more useful as 9:16.
I mean, interesting article and all, but I wish they would have used labeled side by side comparison for the renders instead of a GIF. It's tedious to figure out which is which like this.

The PR release tells people to watch for pain in their legs. So I think it’s possible and likely that clots are not only cerebral but arterial and venous.

But, IDK and I’m super skeptical they’re willing to halt vaccine and take this hit for 6 known cases. My guess is 6 deaths they’re willing to acknowledge and a few more cases that will come out.

But again, I know nothing and I would’ve expected their stock price to take a hit today.

Hope you get better soon.
Right, its simply a test to see what one can get away with. Children, lazy and greedy people do this all the time.
And the way that situation is handled is either

A) fire them

B) tell them that their job responsibilities are simply to stay away from the company and all company matters until their stated end date

The company setting the end date of employment is the definition of a firing.
While I completely agree with you in terms of what I believe, I think society is moving in the polar opposite direction. I expect drastically more of these regulations moving forward, not less.

That's because in the same way the war on drugs isn't really about making people do less drugs, this isn't really about regulating the banking system. They are both generalized systems of control and data collection that have a wide array of benefits to the parties that enforce them. I don't see them going anywhere unfortunately.
I am in the exact same boat, 2x scaling at 4k. I am young but I wear contacts that are not an exact perfect prescription due to the limitations of contacts.

But people will swear up and down to me that there is no way I could possibly tell the difference between screens.

You can literally see individual pixels on a 1080p screen!

I am on Macbooks, but I want to switch to something with Linux so I am waiting for the gen 9 Thinkpad X1C with 4k screen to be available at some reasonable price.

Font rendering is also clearly worse on Linux than Mac, making the fuzzy pixels even more unworkable. I dual booted a 2015 Macbook Air into several Linux distros and I could barely read the text no matter which settings were applied.

More relevant to the overall thread:
Pop OS is awesome.
That's what they meant with "The Android app works with git repos from SSH".

That is: there are GUI mobile and desktop client apps, compatible with the pass storage schemes.

In this case, the parent refers to one such app that can connect to e.g. your GitHub repo with your passes, and read/manage the passwords from there.
The data doesn't show that lockdowns didn't cause suicide, either though. For example, Norway is in the dataset, and Norway didn't lock down, or only locked down for a couple weeks. It might also be interesting to see what the results were in urban areas with tight restrictions, maybe even in countries with already high suicide rates, like South Korea and Japan, to see the results. But either way, you cannot isolate the "lockdown" variable because there was a full spectrum of policy responses from different countries, cities, and subregions. So, let's just say the jury is still out.

We know that social isolation causes depression. We know that economic hardship causes depression. When people argue against lockdowns, this is why.
OP said they sync it to their phone.
Yes, this convert to login only after the item being saved makes little sense. It took a few times of catching the button being shown to figure out the pattern of clicks needed to do this fundamental aspect of what the product is intended to do.
If the US and Europe pulled out of the Middle East it would be too chaotic to predict anything. It depends on the presence of other superpowers (Russia, China) and the pecking order that would be established between the regional powers (Turkey, Israel, Iran, Egypt + the Sunni world).

Also, "pulling out" is too simplistic. There are not only troops on the ground, but also military bases, joint exercises, weapon sales, commercial ties, industrial ties, scientific collaborations, cultural influences, and so on and so forth. Short of disappearing from the globe the US cannot just 'pull out'

It has been said AWS will add M1.
Thanks, that's a great idea -- not sure why I didn't think of that, as I am using the assembler to figure this out for if/else forward branches already (as the parent comment pointed out). I've added a paragraph to the article mentioning this comment. Thanks!

Another approach I thought of is, instead of printing the output right away, append to a list of strings you'll output later, and patch it up yourself. But if we're using an assembler, we might as well get it to work for us. (The patching technique is commonly used for patching binary machine code.)
The problem with defining wealth in that manner is, you can argue a person has literally every material possession they could ever want, from entertainment to knowledge to health and nutrition, and have no desire or use for further "wealth" and yet sitll be considered poor. Yet, it is easy to imagine several of these depreciating assets being more valuable to a person than any imaginable level of wealth, were they unable to use the wealth to obtain those assets.

> Actual wealth produces more wealth

I used my computer to learn to program getting a higher salary than I"ve ever held previously. It produced quite a bit of wealth for me that would have been unatainable without it. Does that impact your stance in any manner?
Overall this was great. One bit stood out as odd though:

> In such cases, our API is public, but we don’t want any website to send data to our analytics API. In fact, we are interested only in requests that originate from browsers that have our website rendered – that is all.

CORS doesn't seem like the right tool for this. Anyone can spam your analytics endpoints without a browser; do you gain anything meaningful by restricting the browser as well?
Depends on the particular trial, but the clinical trial data used to get FDA approval usually measures symptomatic cases, which is a combination of coronavirus symptoms and positive PCR test.

There's some additional data which indicates Pfizer and Moderna are likely to limit transmission, but from my understanding it's not as ironclad as the symptomatic cases data.
We have had countless corporate conspiracies for hundreds of years, from the Standard Oil collusion with railroads to remove competing oil companies, Automanufactureres conspiracy to remove streetcard, The Phoebus cartel limiting lightbulb longevity and FAANG anti-poaching agreement designed to depress developer salaries.

Looks great! When I introduce people to Linux I usually start them off with PopOS!, or KDE I really think it's a great DE. I would probably use it if I wasn't heavily invested into window managers
