Stallman has arguably contributed to work that is academic, at the Ph. D. level. It was just not research into new areas under the umbrella of obtaining a Ph. D.

I was looking through Evolution of Lisp again recently and noticed some citations of Stallman working with Sussman on computer aided circuit analysis.

Stallman also did research into Lisp systems at a time when that sort of thing was still Ph. D worthy, by the way. He was on the ANSI Common Lisp committee, too.

As a hacker, Stallman can easily wipe the floor with many a CS Ph. D.

Stallman can easily be regarded as a "Dr." and specifically in computer science.

I saw several posts about using `<details>` in this way, but none that fully implemented what I was looking for. So I implemented a site navbar that uses `<details>` in two ways: for dropdowns, and for a sidebar.

A working reference implementation can be found here [1]. Additionally, I ended up using a version of this on my personal site [2]. This works on stable versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari.

One thing to be careful of when using `<details>` in interesting ways: accessibility. At a minimum, I encourage folks to make sure that screen readers work as expected.

There's also the confounding matter of physical size - a prefecture level "city" like Wuxi is going to be nearly 20x the physical area of Birmingham (10x the size including the surrounding area) so holding a million people at the time doesn't mean it's necessarily a big population center even before comparing to what's "normal" in the country.
Thanks. Just picked up the first one on Audible!

Thank you so much. I have always made myself an organ donor, on my drivers' license. Also, my father was an organ and tissue donor, after he died. It was what he would have wanted, so we did it, although it was hard. We have received a couple of thank you cards from anonymous recipients over the years. It is very sad, but it is always touching to receive such a letter.
The internet is mainly being used for web apps instead of documents for a while now. Why can’t browser vendors reflect this and provide all those Interfaxe prototypes we need out of the box? Why do we have five bazillion modal libraries instead of a native one? Is there really any value in pretending the web revolves around documents when it had been revolving almost exclusively around apps for quite a while now?
Yeah obd was standardized by like, 97? However there were multiple diagnostic systems that predated it.

Yes, but most conversations with most people don't create permanent records, historically.

Phone calls don't. SMSes do, but the logs kept by the carriers for the national spies are immune to subpoena, because it is illegal for them to exist in the first place. Signal conversations generally don't (except on the device, and it has features for controlling that).

Discord does. iMessage does. Instagram DM does, Facebook Messenger does - all with not only the conversation partner, but with an uninvolved third party who can divulge the conversation content voluntarily if they wish.

Concerns about Germany’s energy system transition and the question of whether power companies are “screwed” are kind of orthogonal.

There are different kinds of power companies.

Utilities with a regulated asset base that get to socialize all of their costs across rate payers aren’t screwed.

Asset-light energy suppliers/retailers in competitive deregulated markets aren’t screwed.

Asset-heavy power generators in competitive deregulated markets might be screwed .. if they have a large portfolio of legacy assets.

Solar PV creates two problems for them.

Firstly, distributed solar reduces the load available to them to serve.

Secondly, centralized and distributed solar depress wholesale energy prices in the middle of the day (and causes increasing frequency of negative-price events).

Together these reduce the volume of sales, reduce profitability, and can increase running costs, because many legacy generators weren’t originally designed to be flexible with the ability to ramp up and down every day.

While solar PV isn’t good for some power companies, it’s generally good for consumers.

You won't find a greater fan of Blake than me, but I'm not clear for the reason of this being posted here.
That link of yours states again and again and again that net metering doesn't cost shift as if this were a general principle, but if you look at its sub resources you see support for very different conclusions, namely:

* Solar doesn't yet have enough market penetration for the duck curve to be a problem. We're still in the early days where cutting peak usage benefits everyone.

* Social good rationalizes the cost shifting

"It hasn't happened yet" and "it's for the best" are VERY different arguments from "it won't happen." Why the deception? Shifting the grid's role from generation to storage is not impossible. Barring that, distributed storage is not impossible. Making PV panels cheap was a huge but tractable step that is now behind us. Figuring out storage is the second huge but tractable step and it's well on the way to being solved. In the meantime, it absolutely makes sense to deploy PV at least until it starts cutting into base load, and from that point the economic case for storage becomes clear and obvious. The facts are on our side, so why lie?
> your own salting algorithm

This can be an OK strategy as long as your salting algorithm is not easy enough to figure out by looking at a few password breaches that you (now or in the future) are exposed by.

It can work if you’re smart about the algorithm, but if someone can guess your algorithm by looking at a few leaked passwords, it can provide a false sense of security.
Hydrogen power is fundamentally a power storage technology. It makes sense to use H2 for that. I've seen some technology that transforms CO2 into jet fuel which is another somewhat carbon neutral technology.
> GitHub has no concept of "issues only users"

Thought: Make a free marketplace extension that allows a one-click "configure this user's subscriptions to different event types to make it into an issues-only user from that user's POV".

Both useful and if done right would hopefully be much more of a way to get people to engage with your product/brand than it would be "enabling a competitor" (I think ... or at least: I'm not trying to convince you to do something against your own interests for my own gain here, but that does not at all mean I'm not completely wrong ;)
I have couple of ways of dealing with the problem.

-- Pen and paper? It is still a thing and cannot be stolen online.

-- If you are afraid your family will access it without your knowledge, use tamper evident bag and a notepad to make notes of bag serial numbers. This prevents anybody from accessing it without your knowledge.

-- Split the password into components so that even if somebody gets access to the piece of paper with the password they still can't log in. I make a note of the variable part of the password and remember a different prefixes/suffixes. I use different prefixes/suffixes for different classes of accounts. For most critical accounts I don't reuse anything.

-- Use hardware (yubikeys) as second factor, to lessen pressure on the password. Unfortunately almost nobody implements these well. In most cases it is possible to turn off the second factor without presenting second factor which basically nullifies the value of it. If you use second factor on a site that implements it well, remember to have MULTIPLE copies of it. Keep it in triplicate, one with you, one in tamper evident bag and one offsite.

Yep. Animals are the most common way that diseases are introduced to humans, and industrial animal agriculture brings these animals into close proximity with themselves and us. Removing animal products from our diets not only mitigates this huge disease reservoir but also removes a huge source of greenhouse emissions, land use, pesticide use (for feed), and animal and labor exploitation (the meatpacking industry is extremely exploitative in the United States.)

> I tell them they will break even in a few years

Then why don't more companies offer to become your electricity provider and install the solar panels for free?

They could say "We promise that your energy bills will be cheaper this year than last year (as long as you don't use more energy), and within a few years you'll own the panels and can switch to a different electricity provider."
Wow, that was a good read.
Do you carry this around with you, or is it just for high-value passwords? I regularly have to log in to things, carrying a notepad of passwords with me would be inconvenient and dangerous.
Things are often classified because of how we know the cat died, not because the cat was special. Suppose you've recruited a foreign intelligence officer to work for you and he happens to mention the cat dying during a debriefing. You can't just declassify the unimportant bits because enough of them will tell you who said it.

It's the same problem as FAANG collecting mountains of "anonymous" metrics. Pretty soon, you can determine who the "anonymous" user is.

I have worked as a security officer at a credit card acquirer (basically, processing credit card transactions between terminal and the bank).

The process to safeguard your PINs is extremely complex but at the very end relies on pieces of paper with passwords and key components written down, put in tamper evident envelopes and then into safes.
You can debate semantics all you want, it doesn't change the reality of the situation and how the problem of IPv4 address exhaustion is very real and not just down to "incompetent network staff".

The DoD sitting on all that unused address space actively contributed to that problem and now it's exploiting band-aid fixes around it to once again play data kranken of the world under the guise of "We are just fighting APT!".
These statistics do not mean much if based on a politically biased definition of what "fake news" is. I count much of the mainstream left-leaning media's reporting on BLM-related issues as fake news because it is based on an accidental or deliberate misreading of crime and policing statistics. If you used my definition of fake news, the percentages that you quote would probably be quite different.
I still have the two stepstools and a bookcase I made in middle-school drafting/woodshop. I am reminded of some of my errors that I learned from while making these objects.

Welding class in high school was similarly useful, and I’m sure small engines and auto shop would’ve been helpful, too.

I wonder if running a farm and pre-industrial village as a school (and possibly as basic military training, with extra challenges) would be better than we currently do.

Wow, is that what's left of the landscape in your area? A few failed for-profits, and nothing of the scrappy community-based true-DIY nonprofits?

That sucks, I'm sorry. And if you feel that way, surely plenty of others do as well, which means it'll be even harder for the next comer to win your (plural) attention.

But I assure you, it's not so bleak everywhere. My area has seen the coming and the going of for-profit spaces as well, but the main effect they've had on the nonprofit spaces is that they burn a bunch of money on PR, attract a bunch of attention, then implode and leave their members looking for alternatives. Good for us, we're doubling our space this year!

I dunno, maybe some would dismiss us as an arts-and-crafts club too. Their loss; more CNC time for me...

Not necessarily. GC can be implemented in a way that's fairly compatible with low-level programming, by leveraging support for multiple address spaces and/or memory segmentation. And WASM needs that kind of support anyway for its planned module-based security.
My point is that if you have enough of something, it stops mattering as much how efficient you are with it.
Schools are not making fortunes off of college football. With few exceptions football programs do not pay for themselves with their revenue. I haven't looked into it but I doubt any football program paid for the stadium they use so I wouldn't be surprised if there truly was no such thing as a profitable college football program.
Not really, whilst bytecode would be slightly harder to verify than an AST a paranoid interpreter wasn't that hard to craft.

Iirc J2ME impls could be fairly secure (barring bugs since many were written in an age before security became a focus), and I think the spec even mandated pre-computed stack-frames (the expensive part of verification that is easy to post-validate for correctness).

Another part of J2ME was because like wasm/web, the runtime API was fairly small and all code could be contained within the sandbox with only API-extensions allowed to be native functions. (This restricted API and it's quite sad UI capabilities was probably part of why Apple ignored it entirely for iPhones)

What was much worse however was the mainline JVM and the Applets, Applets had from day 1 relied on all kinds of mainline JVM features and this featureset kept growing.

Features were encouraged to be written as much as possible in Java but many still had more or less large native parts. This is in addition to the core that allows for quite a bit of code loading,etc (that was allowed from applets).

All these features and loading that could allow for insecure behaviour was secured by a security policy system, sadly there was so many features that were exposed that used powerful dynamic features (the because they were whitelisted) allowed for untrusted code to behave or do stuff only trusted code should.

In Australia, after a $2500 .gov subsidy, mine will pay for themselves in 4.5 years. LG Panels with 25 Year output guarantee. 6.6kw System. Financially speaking it's a complete no brainer.
One thing I did notice when I was living in the USA though, was how expensive it was over there compared to Australia. Installation costs are 3x the price, I have no idea why. My system before the subsidy was $11k, and that was for top of the line panels and inverter. Cheap panels would have been around $7k

Electricity costs are ~ $0.2 per kwh, AUD
I hold the very same opinion, interactive debugging in general should be a rare need.

If it's being used too often then it points to the fact that the software has to be run in order to understand it. It's representation is not sufficient to convey it's run time behaviour.

Also would like to point that dynamic languages in general require more debugging than statically typed one's since one can't be certain of the data flow within functions.
That would be great to read, I sincerely hope you write it, post it here, and I get to read it.

I was researching online and I came across a glowing report of a credit specialist/hacker on a trusted UK credit site. I live in the UK and I needed to improve my credit score because I couldn’t an approval for a car mortgage as a result of a poor credit score. I had medical bills, too many inquiries, charge offs, late payments and an eviction. Although Jamie lives in the united states however, as a credit repair specialist he promised to erase all the negative items influencing my credit profile negatively, replacing them with good lines of credit and eventually increase my score to a high 700. so I would be able to qualified for the car mortgage and even qualify for the new job I seek. Guess what happened after 7 business days - he actually did all he said he will do, deleted all the negative items and raised my score. My family and I are very happy now because I got the car mortgage and the new job. If anyone needs his or her credit fixed ASAP, whether in the Uk, Canada or US, Just run to him he will get the job done in a relatively short time. Here is his contact; creditrepairmannetwork@gmail.com
