If you wanna refer to some "psychological type" you should define it and explain it. Throwing around "X is a sociopath" "Y is the type of brigading that leads to Hitler" without explanation or clarity is crying wolf to the people who will read your comment and associate it with your belief. They could be totally valid analogues! But personally I find it hard to connect self censorship to fascism when the "other side" (subjective) stormed the Capitol in an attempt to overturn a democratic election. Of course, maybe we're doomed on every direction we could turn.

Those interested in the terror that the Jews did primarily against the British should read former Israeli PM Begin's book, The Revolt [1].

Begin's Irgun and the more extreme Stern gang were denounced by the official Israeli government at the time.

The largest loss of life by Irgun was the bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem where the British administration had stored many files on Jews (and Arabs). The call to evacuate the building was made too late and about 90 people died, including 17 Jews. Begin would never had intentionally killed Jews, so it is recognized as a error and not by intent. Still Begin was responsible.

But primarily, in The Revolt available in Kindle for $5, the Irgun attacked infrastructure such as the Haifa refinery and railroads but also attacked an airfield of British bombers blowing them up. The attacks on infrastructure is far more embarrassing to the government than targeting people.

Still if you give terrorist a voice, then you open yourself to giving all terrorists a voice and I don't think governments would be open to that idea.

The Jewish terrorists of Irgun never sought to kill innocent women and children.

How to hack my wife phone remotely
I kid you not, I read “The Elder Scrolls”, and was very amazed that someone tried to figure out the different authors of the many books in the game... time to rest I suppose.
You're right, but the greater point stands. Seoul has a higher population density than Delhi and Bangalore. The problem with India isn't that it's overpopulated, it's that it's poor (and therefore can't afford the infrastructure to support its massive population).
Ah ok
Then if it has the option to read from S3 directly, then it seems legit :)
I think you've misinterpreted what I said: the obsoleted architectural decisions were made by Plan 9 in the late 80s and early 90s.

Main line Plan 9 never went through any real iterations - by 1996, attention was elsewhere, and all of the original designers went off to other things.

If the original designers had still been working on it, they may well have reworked a number of those decisions with the rise of fast and cheap local CPU and storage, 3D acceleration, etc.

I dislike the gratuitous incompatibility of Plan 9. The features that made Plan 9 good have nothing to do with having a weirdo variant C and no working C++ compiler. They broke all sorts of compatibility for no particularly valid reason. As such, they built a system that couldn't run 99% of programs written by people sitting outside the Unix Room.

If they hadn't been so stubborn about this Plan 9 might well be where Linux is - or at least, one of the livelier BSDs.

It's one thing to have original ideas in the OS. I suspect if you hew too close to Linux in an attempt to pick up device drivers, user space programs "entire" (e.g. system call compatibility), you wind up building... Linux. But not being able to run a large pool of programs is laughable. It makes for Bad Research not to mention a really crappy Daily Driver: something that requires amazing levels of Stockholm Syndrome to claim is workable as a regular use OS.

But even so, in 2021 you can make a free video call around the globe for free. You could be using Facetime or Duo or Skpye or one of the many, many other options that provide that core service. For free.

Ultimately Verizon isn't charging you for a phone call. That might be what's on the bill, but they're really charging you for some service level of connectivity. For a lot of people around the globe a phone call is a functionally free service on top of that connectivity.

1. I'm not familiar with the state of US telcos to comment on the situation there, but even if your cell service might not be going that way, cell plans in EU, Australia and New Zealand have essentially hit flat rate monthly fees for unlimited calls and data.

I thought as of ~2017 with Quantum all the major browsers are already using the GPU and parallelizing rendering as much as possible, how does Flow do it differently?
For a startup community, where founders will often be in a customer support role, the wording and tone of user communications (especially those with an unwelcome message) is often top-of-mind, so a language discussion can be relevant.

I’ve sometimes spent hours crafting a single reply to politely decline a request. It’s not even proportional to the prospective importance of the customer, it’s a matter of respect for all potential users.

Also, sometimes, investigating the issue to determine the right words has revealed hitherto unknown problems, uncovered new possibilities, highlighted alternative solutions that may be palatable, or even changed the outcome entirely.

Discussing the language used is actually thereby more productive & constructive than simply piling on Google for being careless, callous and pompous yet again.

We already have a fallout in Archegos and Credit Suisse doing risky stuff (fraud TBD in court). With an exemption from the Fed on reserve levels over the last year, I'm betting those weren't isolated events and more banks have been very naughty.

Here's a documentary about naked short selling and failures to deliver if you're interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kpyhnmd-ZbU

Here's an economist, PhD and former DTC who authored "Naked, Short & Greedy" and has been trying to sound the alarm on naked shorts and phantom shares for decades: https://www.thekomisarscoop.com/2020/03/how-phantom-shares-o...

From that article - "The world‘s biggest stock fraudster, Bernie Madoff, wrote from prison February 3, 2012, “It was perfectly proper to short [my clients’] securities or purchase those positions back from those clients or others with any profit or loss recorded on my books. … The point is that this was my practice prior to the time that I fell into my crime of staying Naked Short. The fact that the prosecutor and Trustee seemed clueless of this is why my frustration is so great.”

GameStop may have gone the way of Toys R Us and countless others.

The shares shorted don't align with what should have been available. You can tally up institutional ownership, make some guesses on retail and use the short numbers available from various sources. It doesn't add up. You can also look at SEC failures to deliver.

None of this sounds like an elaborate fantasy to me. The information is out there.

Now, will anything be fixed? Definitely not unless it's exposed. Kind of what this is all about.
Recently my kids had to suffer through 4 Star Wars movies with their parents complaining every time any "spaceship in space" scene appeared, and learned more than they wanted about orbital mechanics, WWII war movies, and why explosions are not heard in space.

Do you think that accomplished, intelligent rapists like to drag helpless women down dark alleys by their hair after punching them out, or do you think they would prefer a situation where a naive response might be "That sounds generous and possibly completely harmless"? I am going to assume that you are an innocent, not a troll, and ask you that you think like a rapist. What situations would benefit a serial rapist, both in terms of creating a power disadvantage for the victim, a physical opportunity, and a plausible alternative explanation for the public? Bingo.

Let's turn it around. You are a respected figure in a community. You are aware, and have read on HN threads like this, how there are terrible women who smear men with baseless, yet career-ending allegations of sexual advances or worse. In what situation are you comfortable with that risk to your career? There is only one such situation: where you are the predator, and you have groomed a naive victim.

As a professional, you have no business sharing accommodation, of any kind, with a person of the opposite gender (or the same gender if that is your sexual preference). Frankly unless you are very good friends, not anyone at all.

It's worth pointing out that shelved changes don't have any history though, so cross your fingers to make sure you don't accidentally delete/overwrite something.

Fwiw the only major issue I've had with branching is the fact its a full fat copy of your source which can end up taking up a load of space depending on how large your application is post build and how many binaries you dump into perforce.

They seem to be pushing towards "streams" now, but I've heard they make it easier to create development branches but haven't worked with them to find out.

I would be curious why this installs an etcd operator and needs it's own etcd cluster. Why not just use the etcd that already exists in the cluster?

> should developers just blast the key-bits into base64 and ship that?

I would argue given the key lengths of ed25519, not even to do base64, but just do hex encoding.

Sure it is a little longer, but in return you get much simpler encoding and decoding, no worries about flavors of base64 or padding.

In addition, hex encoding is much easier to verbally communicate to someone versus base64.

In a security context, I think making things as simple as possible has big benefits.

I made sure my demands were reasonable and gave them options. If they didn't want to bathe that night, they had to pass a sniff test. If they didn't want a haircut, they could grow their hair as long as they wanted so long as they kept it clean.

For eating, I made healthy foods available that they liked. This worked really well. One son has two conditions that can land a child in in-house hospital treatment for aversion to eating and he never had issues like that.

For trying new foods, they had to try it, not finish it. I never made them do things like clean their plate. Instead, I planned ahead for how much I expected people to eat at the meal.

I always had a good reason for what I was asking and it very rarely came to "because I said so." On the rare occasions where it did hit that point, they went along with it because it was rare, so they were convinced I had a good reason even if I couldn't get them to understand it.
Because "physical memory" being high in Activity Monitor doesn't actually tell you things that cause that dialog to appear. (Unfortunately.) That and a 1GB Firefox tab isn't quite enough to do it.

If "compressed" or "swap space" approach 32GB+/64GB+ (depends on amount of physical memory installed) that can do it, but running out of disk space is a more common problem.

Of course, quitting the top app in the memory list probably is going to fix the issue.
if I'm an architect and my client wants their living room to look like a gothic cathedral

If you were an architect with those kinds of clients you would have a list of potential builders with track records of successfully completing similar work. It’s among the kinds of expertise architects have.

And you would look at this with the jaded cynicism that an architect’s experience inevitably produces...for you will have seen simple concrete pumps break down...seen concrete mixed with extra slump to make it easier to work...and endless product presentations that sounded too good to be true.

And most importantly you would know that right angles are almost always the right answer...
Michael Kirkbride is the dude. He still writes them
Eh, if it makes you feel better it's probably not going to happen. PCs and Macs won't become any less tinkerable. Gatekeeper can be turned off with a single terminal command, iPhones and iPads are becoming more tinkerable, not less. Shortcuts basically exposes a visual scripting and automation language. It's really not doom and gloom.

You are too quick to dismiss the study, I think. What the study shows, I think, is that other things being equal the person who sounds to be from higher class is likely to get the job. The study simulates the other things being equal scenario by eliminating all other avenues for the hiring manager to judge.

Here is the quote from the TFA, lightly edited for emphasis:

The study, ... , demonstrates that:

(a) people can accurately assess a stranger’s socioeconomic
position — defined by their income, education, and occupation
status — based on brief speech patterns and

(b) shows that these snap perceptions influence hiring managers
in ways that favor job applicants from higher social classes.

> The solution is to just apply the interview and not judge based on a few seconds of dialogue.

Agree, but ALSO be aware of such biases and try prevent those.
Here's the other lovely thing, is the deeper you go with a well the worse the water quality. Deep water could have been sitting there for thousands of years and may have a higher radon concentration.
I appreciate the effort to point out how to do better. I will actually take the feedback positively due to you saying “do better, even when provoked.” For whatever reason, that hit close to home to a principle I’ve been striving for. The tone you gave me initially in the arson post definitely rubbed me the wrong way initially; it felt critical without a positive path and just made me want to rebel.

So, thank you, and maybe my feedback is worth a cent. If not no worries.

Thanks.

I guess I should say I don't disbelieve that your mother in law was having problems with the memory in her computer, I just find it baffling because I use mine extremely heavily and my RAM usage rarely peaks like 12GB.

Just to check, I opened simultaneous projects in Logic Pro and Ableton Live, I have a Rust project open in VSCode (Electron), compiling Erlang again, I have Slack, Discord, Signal, and Hey running (all Electron apps), and I have Firefox open with Twitter, Hacker News, Facebook (a dozen tabs, just for good measure), Instagram, FBM, Techmeme, NYTimes, CNN, and MSNBC. This is a 15" 2018 MBP with a 6-core i7 and 16GB of RAM, and the CPU is working pretty hard but RAM usage is currently at just over 12GB.
I know several companies that spend a lot on an endlessly failing recruitment formula. It seems they would rather continue burning money and die than merely consider paying a salary that fits the job. People who would normally accept it also leave because of side effects. New coworkers every week, extra shifts, extra stress, extra pressure and total chaos because people don't show up and the best one: Managers who blame you because the no-show coworker is assumed to be your buddy.
"Predator" also implies the other party had no agency. It's this weird thing that keeps popping up...

Apps break even without browser extensions. A huge number of websites try to use localStorage, and do not check for errors. (localStorage will raise if the cookie settings for the UA do not permit storing data.)
While your arguments make sense, is there any evidence to suggest that it was compromised?
You have 2^256 possible hash values and 2^(8*64) = 2^512 different 64 character strings. So for each hash value (including the "only 8s" one) there are, on average, 2^256 64 char strings mapping to that value.

Therefore (but also trivially) a random 64 character string (or any string) has a 1/2^256 chance of having all 8s in its hash. Since English has about 1 bit of information per character, there are only about 2^64 different non-gibberish 64 char strings. The odds that there exists any English phrase with an all 8 hash are 1/2^192 (i.e. zero).
> there's a lot of Googlers in today's thread, and it's obvious I upset a few.

Potshots like that make things worse, and make me fear that you don't want to use HN as intended. If you keep that up we're going to end up having to rate-limit your account again.

It's not clear how you'd know how many Googlers there are in threads, and in any case taking swipes at people is against the site guidelines. Please stick to your substantive points.

There's also something about conducting a campaign against any $thing (including any $BigCo), finding fault with literally every aspect of everything they do, which is in the spirit of battle rather than curiosity, and so is against the intended use of this site. Please don't use HN for such agendas. It's tedious, and it evokes worse from others.

If you are using GCC, Clang, or MSVC then the standards support is excellent[1].

But putting that aside

> For those languages you wouldn't consider a feature added until it was supported by the reference compiler

Well, there is no reference compiler for C++. I don't think any language with either an ISO or ECMA standard has a reference compiler or interpreter.

There are gaps in support here in and there. But I would still say those mainstream compilers "support" C++17 for the same reason I would say that Chrome "supports" CSS3, despite it not implementing the full specification.
