No no no.

The reason you hear about security flaws in newer cars with OTA updates is because research on unpatchable cars is regularly silenced. Multiple friends of mine who thought it would be fun to look into bluetooth security in cars have had their work shut down by law enforcement and teams of lawyers, and told to back off.

I'd estimate that at least 90% of cars on the road without OTA updates are vulnerable to some sort of Bluetooth based attack that will never get fixed. Your "write enable" trick does more harm than good in these scenarios.
maciej has good intentions but he's usually wrong. Gold must be a pyramid as well then, which is not wrong for a sufficiently narrow definition.
Freedom and liberty to discriminate is a slippery freedom. For whom? When?

In a choice between maximizing efficiency for good actors, and curtailing behavior by bad actors, I tend to weight the latter.
Are there even other "languages"? Or are there just signals like "land-predator!" etc?
Similarly your brain acts in ways that are correlated with things like dopamine release. If you analyze it at the level of interacting atoms, you won’t see anything like “purpose” or intentionality there.

The idea of intention is something that only emerges after some abstraction. It’s just as much a metaphor when applied to humans as when applied to evolution, and just as valid.
It's a naturally occurring, negative-sum pyramid scheme. All money extracted is coming from subsequent entrants to the scheme.
Only if there were waste streams of lithium of comparable scale, which there are not.

We are enormously expanding our use of lithium, and the biggest problem for the places that are currently trying to recycle lithium batteries is that there aren't enough of them to recycle. A big source of their current batteries are just the defects from the current manufacturing process.
The fact that it is highly speculative and driven by speculation does not mean there is no value there. I believe the tech world will move to decentralization, and crypto currency will fuel this transition. If it is never used to buy a hot dog on the street that doesn’t mean it has no value. Building applications that put control into the users’ hands will become more important, and this is what cryptocurrencies are about. Yes, it is not delivering on the value it promises, but I believe it will. Invest at your own risk because it will take a while to get there and there will be many many ups and downs.
Car updates should always go through some independent third party. This ensures that the software can be tested for a sufficient amount of miles before the update is released to the public. The independent party should (at a minimum) check that the software has not been changed in the last X months before it is deployed, which is easy to enforce if the independent party is doing the deployment.

Allowing car companies to update the cars themselves is going to be a recipe for disaster.

Or if you just need to integrate with anything else whose deployment model is "lol here's a container."

Producing offspring is a pyramid scheme.
If Pinboard accounts had a market resale price, they wouldn’t be too different as earlier purchases drove up the price for future purchases, by design. However, Maciej operates Pinboard on a “proof of no developer work” scheme which is vastly more energy efficient.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot!
Not exactly true. Fiat currency, in part, gets its value by the fact the governments can throw you in jail for not paying taxes with it. Sure, not going to jail could be a subjective preference, but pragmatically speaking, that's a big, objective value proposition for most people.
It's really simple. Buy when everyone is fearful, sell when the euphoria and the crypto hype squad is everywhere.

Since this person fails to understand this in the crypto markets and many others who fell for the run up to 60K and it retraced backwards are the same ones crying 'scam' in 2018.

Learn to ignore the hype and sit at the bottoms when no one is taking interest like in March 2020.
How is is the ARM build of Windows?
How do you think it's possible to address this issue?
Wind was going to get the blame no matter what because energy sources are now partisan. There is the coal and oil party and the solar and wind party.
>words can mean anything i want them to mean
Fair enough. I don't think of it as gospel, but rather a source of things to think about and research further. It would be much better if there was an analysis of each individual graph for sure.

Edit: it's also simpler to just focus on the first 5-6 graphs or so, regarding income inequality.
I see. That just goes against the way I naturally think, unfortunately— which is why I thought SASS was such a great breakthrough. I do understand it, though, because when I want to modify something in some over-written hunk of garbage CSS it is a real pain to try to get the selector that actually works (thank god for dev tools).

A huge point!

IMHO, the US should have much more "larger than X" laws (and clauses that enfold organized subcontractors working for larger corporations).
>Wind and hydro are not an option, as there's a strong limit function on expanding capacity.

Yeah, because we need batteries to charge our car batteries...

>EDIT: The real question needs to look at deployment at scale. We have about 300 million vehicles in the US. Assuming all of them are replaced with electrics and accounting for generation-to-wheel losses, how much new energy generation would we require?

You said energy generation, not electricity generation. It would require negative new primary energy generation because efficiency gains alone will reduce the amount of primary energy you have to waste on waste heat production.
AFAIK other than the 32 bit devices and some with smaller vram, all Intel Macs are still supported

I don't own one, but from what I've seen from friends the major benefit is safety.
Those are benefits that are explicitly paid for, that's why we are using them. We don't buy them for other reasons then just get climate control by accident.

An externality is a cost or a benefit that is not accounted for in the trade.

The massive number of COPD cases are not paid for when fossil fuels are burned. The good things we get from fossil fuels is why we pay for them, that's their value and it is accounted for.
Thank you :) Got your point

Replace researchers with hackers, CIA, North Korea, China, etc. Do you still have the warm fuzzies?

The fact of the matter is they broke the trust and your expectation is that since they've been exposed they can be trusted again?

No, if anything the event has shown that additional vetting and layers of scrutiny might be needed to protect against bad actors in the future should they be malicious.

* I type good.
I can't really say one way or another. Given that we can't feasibly test on the large variety of ARM devices out there I think it will depend on how maintenance free the ARM Linux builds are and how much people ask for a ARM Windows build.
What really is "verification" in that case? "The user is legally entitled to use this string of letters to designate themselves"?

The notability mark is useful: it means you're following basketball star Michael Jordan, which is probably what you meant. If you actually wanted to follow your brother-in-law Michael Jordan or a law professor Michael Jordan, there's really no simple binary mark that will help you separate them from each other. You'll have to do your research.

You can do also research on The Real Elon Musk Who Has Billions Of Dollars And Isn't Giving Any Of Them To You, and I honestly don't know if there's any way to help people who can't figure that out. But I could see Twitter at least wanting to try to help save people from themselves, because the bell curve has two tails.

Other than that... I'm not sure what any kind of verification really does. Maybe a dating app can help save you from wasting your time, because the whole point is that you're meeting strangers, some of whom will be bad people who get booted repeatedly. That's a completely different use case.

You can definitely sideload books, and I was able to do so without loginning into an account by adding a fake user to a sqlite file on the device. I didn't see any upside to any of the tweak/custom firmware stuff I saw over just not connecting the device to the internet for my use case, but I think root access might be possible?
Looking at the left hand side examples of what not to do triggered irrational anger in me because of the associated negative memories of using UI that hit almost everyone of these bad examples. Thanks for this book!
This law is about ending pay disparity for two people doing the same work. This is not what you are describing. In your scenario a new title could simply be created more appropriate for the experience/skill. That would then establish what is appropriate pay for that skill/experience level for future candidates.
It's true that by buying bitcoin you're basically rewarding someone for having been there before you. So maybe you need to ask yourself if you want to do that. Do I want to reward some moron who has contributed nothing to society just because he was there before me? That's the question everybody should be asking.

FWIW, I don't take this article poorly because I don't see it as being critical of some immutable characteristic of either me or of English. It's simply pointing out a blind spot that native speakers are unlikely to realize when speaking to non-native speakers.

As to the headline, like not judging a book by its cover, I also don't judge an article by its crappy clickbait provocative headline.

The act allows exceptions to the prohibition against a wage differential based on sex if the employer demonstrates that a wage differential is not based on wage rate history and is based upon one or more of the following factors, so long as the employer applies the factors reasonably and they account for the entire wage rate differential:

- A seniority system;

- A merit system;

- A system that measures earnings by quantity or quality of production;

- The geographic location where the work is performed;

- Education, training, or experience to the extent that they are reasonably related to the work in question; or

- Travel, if the travel is a regular and necessary condition of the work performed.

The things you listed, like taking the job for less because you lack the relevant education are actual exceptions written into the law.
Informatics pipeline software in general seem to be "All that accepted practice about distributing software? Let's throw it out of the window"

You could always hire the person for a different role. Say its a SE position in the company but then the person doesn't meet the requirements. The company can offer a jr position.

Especially in your situation it would make sense to have a separate title at the start.
This matters very little at this point. Wind and solar are being deployed in Texas very rapidly (tens of GW of capacity are in the queue [1]). FERC has a recent ruling, encouraged along by Tesla, to make utility storage a first class citizen within ERCOT [2]. By the end of 2023, wind and solar will eclipse Texas’ gas fired generation capacity, before accounting for rooftop solar deployments “behind the meter.”

With that said, this illustrates death gasps of a dying ideology. Let the market continue to do its thing and drive out fossil generation.

Okay.

Marineland has been the subject of many, many scandals and investigations (non-exhaustive, see Wikipedia for sources and a complete list):
- illegally capturing dolphins
- 15 premature orca deaths
- 5 premature beluga deaths
- the owner shot a fawn in the throat and let it bleed out
- the park has mass graves for its animals on its property
- the park has been investigated several times for its water quality, including after the death of a seal and injury of several others on loan from the Vancouver Aquarium

Anecdotally, from my last visit to Marineland (before I was aware of just how disgusting the park is)
- the bears almost universally have patches of missing fur
- the whales have almost no room to swim

I feel nothing but 100% vitriol towards Marineland. It's one giant animal abuse system, and this has been well documented by Ontario newspapers. The owner, John Holer, is an awful person who profits from the suffering of intelligent animals and I would like nothing better than to see him lose his fortune and spend time behind bars.

Thank you for prompting me to be more complete in my criticism of Marineland. Marineland is a disgraceful blight on Niagara and the province of Ontario in general. It should have been shut down decades ago.
It takes money to move, and it's unlikely they have the financial resources to handle living in an area with a significantly higher cost of living, unless the job pays very well. Given the fact that public school graduation rates are relatively low where they live, it's unlikely they would be able to secure one of those high paying jobs if they don't have at least a high school diploma or GED.
> I don't care about the headaches people had 20 years ago

Hard disagree. Especially with technology, what we have today doesn't usually make much sense unless you compare it with what we used to have: everything started out the simple, but naive way, and evolved out of combat-tested lessons learned to what it is right now. If you don't know what those lessons were, a lot of the design decisions that went into what you see will seem mysterious and, possibly, pointless.
Great point I've been thinking about this. I'm thinking that people would only interact in groups of 3 or more maybe that will help. But I will definitely keep this in mind.

This tactic of people not quite there saying they have it but don't deserve it (offering personal anecdotes in the Atlantic no less) seems a bit much. The trouble with the new meritocratic elite the author describes is that it isn't broadly recognized as an elite by the people outside it, which is arguably the source of cultural tensions now. It lacks a certain legitimacy, as though some people arrived and collected the symbols of an establishment and pretended to become them, like driving your own limousine and telling people you are rich. They have seized institutions certainly, but dying ones. Personally I don't have much patience for writers who forfeit the stewardship of the culture they inherited, especially to signal they have somehow transcended it. It's a kind of moral bargaining that avoids accepting they have failed to build and sustain the freedoms and opportunities of their culture, and these are the self justifying stories they tell themselves. Being more concerned with how to distribute wealth than how to build, grow, and sustain it is a cheap substitute activity. They are nice words that provide comfort to some readers I'm sure, but I can't afford such cheap ideas.
Sometimes I wonder if small companies are just full of bitter google rejects who have decided to make the interview process miserable to boost their own egos. I went through a year of being unemployed not too long ago and it was very painful. Receiving no feedback is the worst part by far.

A recent project required some work in jquery. All of the other developers stated that it would be difficult and take them too long because they were not familiar with it - being react devs themselves - so it was left to me. I was shocked. The idea that jquery could possibly be described as being more difficult than react is amusing at best. Sure, it was largely an excuse on their part, but I was left speechless nonetheless.

I guess my point is that nearly 20 years of dev experience leaves me with the ability to do the old and the new. I wish this was more respected by companies in general.
Ask HN: Communication skills required for a software engineer
My communication skills are very poor. I have a hard time communicating what I am thinking in a coherent way. When I communicate verbally, I usually end up rambling and jumping all over the place. My written communication is better but it takes me a lot longer than my peers to pull together my thoughts.
I am interesting in working in FAANG or another large tech company but I fear my communication skills will hold me back.
I also suffer from anxiety and generally lack confidence.
> I must treat my children as badly as the worst parent in the name of equality

This is close to the right-wing trope "the left wants everyone to be equally poor", when in reality it's more about gaining support for progressive policies such as free high-quality daycare, schools, health care for everybody. And realizing that it's super-expensive but still better for everyone in the long run. Beyond that, of course every parent should do their best to raise their kids right.
The Universal Recommender in Action(ML)
That sucks, but Gmail prompts you many times (to the point of annoyance) to setup recovery mechanisms. Recovery emails, recovery phone numbers, and there's one that I didn't know of until my son died, but there's an account inactivity notice you can send out automatically which allows the recipient to log in.

There's a reason they nag you too setup those alternative methods. I hope your friend can get back in to his account but others should take notice and ensure the recovery methods are setup if your email is critical.

>CFL bulbs are fine; they last years and they don't heat up your house like crazy.

>LED bulbs are better in every way, but didn't exist 20 years ago and CFL did.

Correct from political and marketing perspective, but not from consumer perspective.

Integrated CFLs contain the tube and ballast in a single unit. The tubes will last very long time, the ballasts will fail quite frequently, more often than incandescent.

Same with LED bulbs. The LED itself will last very long time, but the electronics driving it will fail much sooner than CFL ballasts.

So, yes, CFL and LED will last longer if we want to be pedantic on naming, but to the consumer it means nothing. Will the new CFL or LED bulbs that I screw in last longer than my old light-bulbs?

I will even take it a step further, LEDs are constructed to fail sooner in some countries - https://hackaday.com/2021/01/17/leds-from-dubai-the-royal-li...
