Interesting as this is, the article nurtures an old misconception (with roots both in religion and classical philosophy) that there are some traits that distinctly separates humans from other animals, and by extension, finding the time when humans developed that trait is when we became truly humans. In reality the evidence reveals that all such traits, be it burial, toolmaking, artistry, abstract thinking etc, is something we share with other species to varying degrees. To the extent we have any unique such traits currently that radically sets us apart from other species then it has been a long and gradual process over eons.

In the case of burials, this old misconception places a ridiculously high bar on proof that other species revere their dead. Case in point being that of Homo Naledi, admittedly a Homo but not a human by a long shot that clearly practiced burials in inaccessible cave structures. [0]

“House” is more likely the term that makes sense in that sentence.
2FA is great when you want it on an account. If it’s being forced on you however, it’s insanely irritating, often for no reason. The user should have the power to decide if that information is worth the extra protection.

To your point, what is an anti pattern is requiring certain special characters or a certain mixture of character sets while ignoring other valid safety approaches such as password length IMO. Regardless, if a user is constantly resetting their password due to forgotten password, that amounts to 2FA because of the emailed reset tokens anyway. Modern users have adequate access to password managers that it should be simple to put them back in control.
An often repeated joke is that the Chinese only spy on us, to subvert Western democratic governments they dont actually care what we're doing: the US government spies on us for far more mundane reasons like propping up intellectual property laws, and to make sure we only do what the DC lobbyists want.
I think I'd just use an actual calculator, since it has actual keys…
Have you tried ipython or jupyter? Former is better than just python's repl and latter is pretty popular among datasci folks.
It isn't an inevitable product though. E.g.[1]:

> Mongolian culture is famous, along with Tibetans, for "sky burial," which leaves the body of the deceased on a high unprotected place to be exposed to the elements and devoured by wildlife. It's part of a Vajrayana Buddhist outlook about the needlessness of "respecting" the body after death.

Personally, I'd prefer if this was what would happen to my body than any Western ritual. Alas, in the West we have laws which, in practice, impose religious precepts long after the states are secular on paper.

Android allows adb install over usb and still sandbox the application. Sandboxing is a feature of the OS and not the store. What's missing from parent description is the publisher signature to retain allowed permissions after upgrades, which still is a feature of the OS and not the store.

Stricter sandboxing makes it more difficult to fingerprint the user and lessens the burden and dependency on legal contracts and policies. Which is what Apple just did by blocking the access to unique device id.
General Guide for Exploring Large Open Source Codebases
Just to be precise: It's a single From field with several addresses, not multiple From fields (see https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322#page-21).

RFC 6854 updated the From field to allow an empty group construct (see https://explained-from-first-principles.com/email/#no-reply) but mainly for other reasons (see https://explained-from-first-principles.com/email/#email-add...).

DMARC authentication either rejects multiple addresses in the From field or authenticates them all and applies the most strict policy (see https://explained-from-first-principles.com/email/#domain-ba...).
Due to what missing permission?
I don't think anyone is arguing that lack accredited investor requirements was the main reason for the crash of 29, just that it's one of many common-sense regulations put in place to prevent a repeat of the worst outcomes.

I never practice with separate hands. My experience is that muscle memory kind of resets anyway once the other hand joins. So why bother?

I prefer practicing in a super slow tempo but with both hands right from the start.
Author here. It's all digital (square waves!).

There were definitely well-known circuits for driving transducers, but I had to improvise to make a circuit small and simple enough to build 100 of them.

Building new circuits requires tinkering and many tries, regardless of the builder's knowledge.

> Even though TOTP is provably safer than SMS

This seems like it would depend heavily on your threat model, especially keeping in mind that we're talking about second factors here.

For example, one threat is that bad guys gain access to the authentication data of the Relying Party. For example, maybe they find the daily backups are in backups.tgz on the web server for convenient downloading. Or maybe you never changed the password on the MySQL server. This is of course one way bad guys might have everybody's passwords, the first factor...

For TOTP the stored credentials include a "seed" value used to generate those six digit codes, and so by the relying party to confirm your code is correct. So for that credential access threat, the bad guys also have your TOTP codes and you're no better off with TOTP.

Whereas for SMS the stored credentials just include a phone number to send the one use codes to, bad guys having that isn't great news necessarily, but it doesn't actually give them the codes. Even if the one-use codes are stored in the same place as permanent credentials (which they may not be) and thus accessible to bad guys, the bad guys can't necessarily arrange to see them before you use them, and in any case can't arrange for you not to wonder why you're getting all these one-use SMS codes suddenly.

In contrast notably Security Keys don't end up with the Relying Party having any secrets at all, and so bad guys do not learn how to impersonate your users even if they somehow have access to the same means you use to authenticate those users.
Solving the regex of madness, and snarky answers on StackOverflow (2019)
I tried to debug a very similar-sounding issue a couple of years back. Many GB used in dentrys, not shrinking when asked, no obvious cause.

Sadly I have no kernel hacking skills, don’t even know what a dentry is. Kudos to the author.
What? Protected how? People see things they don't like and demand that the government "does something about it." It's a natural reaction, but it's exactly that kind of reaction that leads to legislation like the Patriot Act.

As far as anyone currently knows, free markets have cycles and there isn't anything you can do about that. Central planning historically goes a lot worse. Perhaps just assume that the winners in the market cycle will on average be more productive deployers of capital than the losers, and that all the losers participated willingly in something they knew was a meme?
It's a bold new world of investing no longer controlled by behind doors paperwork, government, and traditional brick and mortar business names. Whom exactly are we protecting? There's no hidden costs, no hidden contracts or things you didn't sign up for. Simply 1 doge is equal to some amount of USD. It may go up or down. Investing is and always has been a more sophisticated game of gambling. At least here it's over hashes, and not irreplaceable needs like land/homes.

I don't see how they're meant to be "helping". That'd be like if the government swooped in to save your companies stocks from falling. What conspiracy is there here? Value has always been what we believe it to be, or what an authority says it is. There is no inherent value to anything. Gold/silver are just as valuable as some doge hashes.
Doesn't make sense here, doesn't make sense with Windows 10 being mainly tested by actual users, doesn't make sense with AAA games being alpha/beta versions at release.

The result is never as good as it could be.
Assets tied to crypto are stated to be full risk. Institutions mandated to inform regulations might make you lose full investment overnight.

On what grounds should we (not they) do more, and wouldn't that fuel even wilder conspiracy and self-victimization?

Thanks for the feedback. I summarized over a 100 RFCs in this article so I certainly hope it's factual and complete. :-)
> The bits start from highest to lowest on a serial connection.

This is only true on a big endian serial connection (that is, one that, tautologically, sends the most-significant bit first). Offhand, I think most serial protocols are big endian, but by that logic, most CPUs are little endian, so that doesn't really help.

The thing that's actually useful about big endian is not that it's natural (as kangalioo points out, that's little endian) or that it's how humans write numbers (by that logic crap like BCD or decimal floats is a good idea), but that big endian preserves lexicographic order of fixed-width integers.
You're right. I did mean it in the gentlest sense, that someone who can afford to lose a bit perhaps should. Maybe that is too much faith that it will at least end up in circulation on something more useful. I have little use for fraudsters and those relying on huge differentials in knowledge. When it comes to ordinary people investing their transfer payments on something they may not understand actually can shrink 90% in 2 hours with zero recourse, it becomes a serious wrong.

I've been following since near the beginning, and my circle's rather techy so they largely get it. But I'm not sure what the average person today understands about something like Bitcoin and similar, technically or financially. I've struggled to inform myself before. I looked into the protocols for some decentralized exchanges and I noticed that it's hard to find much about them because in-depth or neutral discussion is buried under a pile of buzz and hype. The biggest advocates promise the Moon, sometimes literally.

Perhaps public education of some kind could help, so that more people understand risks and unknowns? When everything that comes up on cryptocurrency is from the biggest stakeholders in the game, people will not be getting a fair understanding.
Do you think some of the advances you make by having a teacher is the discipline.

I mean I guess you set up a time every week and have to actually go and spend that time. I guess you would feel bad if you didn't practice what the teacher told you to?

This is what stops me progressing, I don't have a reason to play. I never progressed more quickly than when I was in a band.

Considering the material here, that's more likely to happen than not. So, unlikely to be "much more reliable" for this particular scenario. ;)
cancerous or not, the body is terrible at digesting uncooked mushrooms and you probably aren't getting much nutrition from eating them raw.
Agreed, processed meat substitutes are a solution looking for a problem. Mushrooms are already basically meat.
We've been asking ourselves the same question and trying to figure it out. We currently have some developers and non-developer users, but the mimimum requirement seems to be that the builder understands the data and is proficient in writing data queries. For now, we mostly try to make Lowdefy work for developers, since it is developers who carry the responsibility of solving software and data related problems in companies. We do plan to make Lowdefy more attractive for citizen developers in the future, but we believe the first goal should be to serve developers well.

What is really cool about writing these apps in YAML is that it enables all developers to build a web UI. Many backend developers have the need to put a UI in front of their services but have very little desire to learn React, webpack, css, etc. And for frontend developers, they often want to focus on the consumer side of their applications, yet spend a great deal of time building administrative features. Lowdefy enables all developers to build web apps without learning additional skills - it's almost like full stack "infrastructure as code".

> you will need to reuse yaml blocks, reference other blocks and so on. Essentially it feels to me writing yaml is no different from coding using a high level library or framework.

Absolutely. We have a _ref [0] operator which enables you to template our parts of your YAML. Then helps Lowdefy apps scale really well.

It is true that one has to "think like a coder" to write Lowdefy apps. But I'm wondering if this can or should be removed at all when you are working with data. Even when using Excel I need to think like an excel developer to develop a more complicated sheet.

Not playing is even worse, I used to live near a less financially developed area of the city and youtube would promote dreadful videos either musically or societally if not logged in.

I did it for a couple of weeks to see what was being promoted by youtube algorithms in terms of content and ads to the more financially challenged parts of the society. Gangsta and sexually inuendo videos in neighbourhoods that although poor do not have a crime problem and young people don't dress like that. But it seems the algo is working on it.

How soon until you sordid smug engineers at Google block this extension?
I've been thinking a lot about dark matter lately, and came up with a new candidate particle set based on size magnitudes.

A "large" particle would be extremely difficult to interact with. Think of something the size of a baseball. Normal matter would pass through it easily if it was so diffuse.

They would have to have a mass outside the range of our current accelerators or we would see them by their absence in collision traces.
Ask HN: How do you manage to work less than 8 hours despite full-time job?
Lately I saw some comments of people that claim they don't work 8 hours a day anymore, mostly because of their sanity, and they complete the same amount of work or even more. One of them spent 4 hours on coding and 2 hours for meetings and learning, which seems totally not feasible for me. I have a lot of activities and even one more hour a day (7 hours of daily work) would be a real blessing. I could use it for learning more programming stuff, but not necessarily related to my job.

The questions are:
How long is your typical flow state?
How long are your breaks and how you use them?
How do you remove distractions?
Is there anything more I should know?

Thank you in advance
The 2 goats didn't make sense to me but the host perspective does I think, like:

after player's first choice, there's two cases.

Either player picked the car, or they didn't.

If player picked the car, then host has two choices to pick from, if player didn't pick the car, the host has 1 choice to pick from. (At this point you can sort of imagine a binary tree with 3 leaves and 5 nodes)

So either player picked the car the first time with a 1/3 chance (so, less likely), or didn't (more likely).

So it's more likely for player to miss the first time (unless you're a precog psychic like me), which, "paradoxically (but not really)", by missing (by failing), player actually improves odds for second guess. So, on average the second guess is more likely to hit, because, on average, the first guess is more likely to miss.

Now finally it makes sense to me. Because it's more likely to miss on first guess, it's also more likely to hit on second guess, so it's more profitable to switch, on average.

Do I get it now? I think I do! Woot! :P :) xx
> Do you know if it supports interactive Plotły plots?

I haven't tried it myself but perhaps it might work via widgets https://github.com/nnicandro/emacs-jupyter#building-the-widg...
(my guess that might be the overwhelming part)

If all you need is TUI for Jupyter, then a minimal .emacs conf. from the link would do:

; M-x package-install RET jupyter RET
(org-babel-do-load-languages
'org-babel-load-languages
'((emacs-lisp . t)
(julia . t)
(python . t)
(jupyter . t)))
This is interesting. Ransomware authors may be protecting their targets against destructive attacks since this would reduce their profits. In the same way that botnets attempt to protect their host from being infected by competing malware.
Just like drivers license. Take a test of basic financial competency and education. Pay 100 bucks for the test. Done.
Right, since we all have hands, that's why there's no market for fleshlights.
If you're keeping your USD in a savings account I would rather worry about myself if I where you.
The situation is fundamentally different compared to fiat currencies. A moderate rate of inflation like we have in advanced economies means that all nominal prices adjust gradually upwards, and this includes salaries. Therefore, for most people, their purchasing power is largely unaffected.
As a competitive partner dancer, I too will close my eyes sometimes to shut out distractions and focus on the movement more. This is especially useful while practicing but I also sometimes do it during social dancing (provided there is enough room and I won't be putting my partner at risk by crashing into other people or being crashed into).

Feel the damn music :/

Ah, that was the intent behind that sentence. Makes sense, thank you for clarifying. I hope you can see how I easily misunderstood it without that added context though.

Thanks again for the links, I did not know the film
> well-known circuits for driving transducers, but I had to improvise to make a circuit small and simple enough to build 100 of them

Yes, maybe an Opamp that works at 40V could have worked (with an appropriate feedback config), but your end result looks ok. I'm just saying that putting the transducer in the emitter was a non-starter (as you correctly pointed out)

> Building new circuits requires tinkering and many tries, regardless of the builder's knowledge.

Absolutely, I'm not denying it :) It's a great job nonetheless
> These phrases in the context of writing, absent other context, have the same meaning. This isn’t really an opinion.

In a thread where others explain how to them, they have different meanings. It is quite obviously an opinion.
I pretty much think this is the case too, most of these things are soaking up excess liquidity that is leaking from the financial system. It feels more like every canary in the coal mine is going off, but people are focusing too much on the birds passing out and not the things that are causing them to do so.
It looks very sleek!

I noticed for the donation when choosing Lightning you have to generate an invoice first. LND for example supports "keysend" which allows variable payer-initiated payments while from the payee side you can show the same static QR code: https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/3795

I didn't check if all Lightning clients already support it, but I think most do.

> wait for these 50+ billion dollar IPOs. Would love to invest earlier

the reason these early institutional investors of pre-IPO stock gets massive gains is because there are few of them compared to retail. A startup that needs the capital is in a less commanding position, and thus, the institutional investors can demand a better price.

If a lot of retail investors invest in pre-IPO like you describe, it would push the price higher earlier, and thus, there will not be a price pop _at_ IPO, and the gains that make pre-IPO allocation so attractive to retail investors will not happen.

In a somewhat recent A16z podcast episode[0] the CEO of Twilio dropped that more than half of the developers they surveyed played a musical instrument and 3/4 or so “did some sort of artistic thing on the side”.

I feel like I’m unlucky since the vast majority of the devs I accidentally cross paths with IRL somehow do not have such interests.

The copy of the backup on Google drive/storage (whatever they call the app backup) is completely unencrypted.

Google won’t just give it to you - if you want it, you have to impersonate the WhatsApp app.

The local backup on your device is encrypted. Facebook will give it to anyone who can read their SMS message, as long as they also impersonate WhatsApp.

The bottom line is that without much work, google has full access to your data in whichever way they desire, but you only have access through the sanctioned app.

Which means for a state level actor, it’s at most one subpoena and likely they have streamlined that XKeyScore style, so not even that.
You’re ignoring the fact that you already have information when it switches to two doors.
