It always rings. The vast majority of people never volunteer, never want to be visible, never want to put in the work. The odds are in your favor that the bell will ring for you, just by reading this forum you probably read other interesting things. Most people just watch TV, it's crazy but it's true.
Sorry, I was not supposed to include the part from your reply about personal loans. I was just pointing out that the mortgage interest deduction is effectively useless for 87% of people.
I try to stick to just the facts, but I'm not perfect at it either. That's fair! I'll cut that too. Sorry about that!
I noticed that when running MS teams in a flatpak on wayland, it no longer has access to the mouse and keyboard input so it just shows me as online always.
I'm looking forward to having an AI that blocks all the "this animal I keep locked up is cute" posts, they do nothing for me; I just don't want to see them.

A Slashdot style -30% of points for posts tagged 'cute' would probably do it too.
Who said anything about being rich? I was talking about avoiding poverty.

I was talking about what we should be teaching the young. Being born into a family that knows how to avoid unforced mistakes is absolutely important. Especially if society is to busy emoting about poverty to teach young people the "secrets" of avoiding it.

I pointed out that the emergency fund is a risk management strategy. It's for people eke their way into some money. Telling poor people to just have savings is useless, but that wasn't what I was saying.
This is sort of the obvious "opiate of the masses" counter, which I think is a reasonable consideration.
Except literally today I wanted to do a quick reboot of Ubuntu and I was stuck staring at "unattended-upgrade in progress during shutdown, please don't turn off the computer" for 30 minutes with no warning nor any indication of how long it would take. That managed to be far more infuriating than windows ever has with all of its update shenanigans.

Zero for us at http://api.case.law because most of our endpoints don't require registration. Getting case text does require fast free registration, though.
I erroneously included the part about personal loans in what I quoted from WalterBright. I just intended to point out very few people benefit from mortgage interest tax deductions nowadays.
Don't think the police were involved here? Regardless the [bad] police will never care and the good ones are likely mostly ignorant.

It's the judges and DAs that need to learn.

Even more so now with more carriers doing CGNAT (and this number will go up as IPv4 gets more and more expensive.)
Heh guess I can cross this off my ideas list. 100% this is the way to go.
When I was in Australia I enjoyed the difference in how they used “overseas” there. It was used in a general sense to mean outside the country —- naturally since Australia is an island. In the US, there’s a slight distinction, since there are certain countries you can get to via land borders, so “overseas” tends to imply places that are farther away.
how hard is it to just agree? I agree with conservatives and liberals even when they are saying ridiculous things.

"Oh yeah, I totally know what you are saying"

"mmm hmmm"

"Interesting I hadnt thought about it like that before".

It is your ego or something else that makes it hard for you to do this.

Self determination theory is the opposite. And has a lot of empirical evidence.

Also check the overjustification effect to see how extrinsic motivation destroys any motivation.

I think that limiting memory timings, like limiting frequency, is more about stability than market segmentation, so it could be framed as honest.

Not supporting ECC memory except in "enterprise" versions is pure segmentation. Good thing AMD broke this unwholesome tradition.

My understanding is that he was referring to impact on the company. At FANG, there is no single product where your impact has a significant impact on the company as a whole.

Sure you can go to AWS and work on Lambda. And then you can work on a feature of Lambda. It's very likely that the feature is going to have an extremely minimal impact on Amazon as a whole company.

I'd imagine the same is for apple. You can join, go work on a secret feature of a feature on the iPhone, launch it, and then yay. You've now contributed to a feature of a feature of a product with 100s or 1000s of other features.

I have taken a different approach to remote access in limited scenarios:

gofwd: A cross-platform TCP port forwarder with Duo 2FA and Geo-IP integration. Its use case is to help protect services when using a VPN is not possible. Before a connection is forwarded, the remote IP address is geographically checked against city, region (state), and/or country. Distance (in miles) can also be used. If this condition is satisfied, a Duo 2FA request can then be sent to a mobile device. The connection is only forwarded after Duo has verified the user.

We're in a thread talking about how equity compensation at startups is generally not sufficient to overcome the pay cut that folks would take from working at a top tier tech company, so even if you come at this from a purely transactional perspective, you may want to be less stingy with equity.

You can do whatever you want of course, but I think people should ask themselves if trying to hold onto all the returns is helping them achieve what they actually want.
Thx => you should state those infos.

> but it shouldn't be noticeable to the human eye.

Well, there are eyes and eyes (e.g. I edited a lot of videos in the past so now I can see video stuttering that my friends/colleagues cannot see) => you should state that info on your site, including the indirect consequence of the trimmed video becoming bigger than the source (concerning the trimmed section).
The Airborne Covid Threat Is Confirmed. What to Do About It?
This is DS-Lite (Dual Stack). Entire regions of ISP users may share a single IPv4 address. There are some IPv4-only websites I visit that show a CloudFlare captcha on every single visit (for 30 mins), presumably because they see a huge number of requests from this one NAT IP.
Even if you have a fully decked out kitchen for free, that doesn't change the fact that you can feed three people for under $3 with a frozen pizza, and it's ready in less than 10 minutes.

All distros I've ever used (debian, arch) provide previous and current version of postgresql for the purpose of easy pg_upgrade.

Debian even has special custom helper scripts for doing it. So just build your container with both postgres versions?
That tells us nothing about C++ vs Rust because the decision to use C++ for Zircon would have been made back in 2016 or 2015. At that time Rust was too immature to warrant serious consideration for such a large project. More recently use of Rust in Fuchsia has been expanding, although the C++ kernel is obviously far enough along that they're not going to re-write it in Rust.
Yep, see FIRE and it’s sibling acronyms.
It's not really about trust, it's about the hassle of adding and maintaining things (including keeping up with their changelogs and security issues).

As for log clutter, my approach comprehensively stops the logs files from being cluttered with failed attempts; that's one of the main reasons I do it.
well to me the transaction is the same as deleting a record and populating a NULL record.

I don't see why the law should care in any way about a company populating NULL records.
If a Director of PM is getting into the technical weeds on an interview, I'd see that as a red flag. PMs role is about what to build, and when to build it, not how. So if they are diving deep into engineering, they may not have well established roles and boundaries in the organization, or may not have much tech leadership at all.

No, racism is attributed to racists.

"Indian variant" is descriptive of where the variant came from, nothing more.

Killing the integrity of language as a way to counter racism is non-sense, much in line with the neoliberal wokeism allowing it to be acceptable to not differentiate the use of master when in computer terms in master-slave or blacklist/whitelist simply because a lack of critical thinking and perhaps anger interrupting or disrupting that differentiation ability; we must hold the line for the integrity of language.
Why would you enable unattended upgrades on a desktop computer (as opposed to a server)? Is this something Ubuntu enforces?

Thanks for the link - this is super cool! I definitely plan to explore.
The front page has definitely gotten worse over time. More people doesn't actually imply better judgement in story quality. The moderators have admitted that their goal is to slow the inevitable decline in the quality of the site that comes with a bigger audience; they have no illusions that the site would somehow manage to break the only replicable rule of the internet, that any site will get worse with a wider audience.
It really depends on your dialect (idiolect?). If you are ocker*, kiwi, or yarpie then vowel length may matter because there can be words with the same vowel sound where only the vowel length changes the meaning. English in Northern England also has vowel length rules (although presumably not often confusing since most speakers are very familiar with English as spoken in the rest of the country).

In New Zealand, can’t and cunt have the same vowel sound, and foreigners can make embarrassing or hilarious errors!

Shed and shared have different vowel sounds in my accent (shared rhymes with ear or air - a diphthong?).
I used to think UBI was the solution, but it has a severe risk of creating a permanent underclass. Then I learned about a Federal Job Guarantee where if the private sector chooses not to provide jobs then the Federal govt will step in and become the job provider of last resort with salaries going for a living wage. This is a stronger guarantee than merely a minimum wage, because companies will just cut jobs in a small town; the Job guarantee will ensure that labour won't just be laid off permanently. It also has some nice properties economists like such as being an automatic stabilizer during recessions when companies are loathe to invest in the economy, while during the good times, fewer people will be on the Federal job program.

Sometimes a simpler language beats one with problem specific primitives. For instance, Haskell is well equipped to do a short prime number generator with

nubBy(((>1).).gcd)[2..]

where nub removes duplicates from a list according to some notion of equivalence, which in this case is having a greatest common divisor greater than one.

That's just 23 bytes. Can we beat that with a language with no such arithmetic and list support?

It can in fact be beaten with a language that has no built-in numbers, let alone arithmetic.

From the article,

>“We see a lot of repeat offenders.”

Sure if each criminal act was done by a different person, it probably would be expensive. In most cities, very small set of people are responsible for 99% of the crime. So if you book a single person, it will prevent multiple such incidents and bring down the cost and will be worthwhile. It's not a cost problem, it is a politics problem.

Besides doesn't matter how small the crime is. If tomorrow, if what the DA and the cops are are doing get written into law, ie, anything that is of less value than what costs us to prosecute is legal, the society will descend into chaos very quickly. Like why the hell am I paying for groceries?
So is it okay to say B1617 from India or believed to have come from India?

- would it be fine ? (but longer) - if Indian may be misleading regarding Jack000 comment.

If recombination happen (variant with B.1.1.7 and B.1.617.2 mutations) it may be called here UK "Bedford (& Glasgow?)" variant without "India" in the description.
I'm pretty hopeful that DuckDB will replace some of the use of SQLite. SQLite is great but it sucks that it's entirely dynamically typed (the types specified for columns are completely ignored).
How is it irrelevant? It seems like some of the most relevant considerations when explicitly asking about something compared to the common cold, which is exactly what they did.

This was a super weird reaction to someone's detailed yet brief and thoughtful response.
> The Zoom bombers’ public IP addresses matched Malachi’s — but four other students who did not appear to be Zoom bombers were also listed as having Malachi’s public IP address, an impossibility since they were not in the same house, said Scott Moulton, a Woodstock-based forensics expert hired by the attorney working on Malachi’s case.

So in other words, 5 students plus the zoom bomber had the same "public IP address" (probably due to NATing) in this list, and they picked him as the culprit. What did they do, roll a dice?
didn't they in the past as well? and wasn't it a matter of education (as in humanities) if you'd occasionally also skimmed newspapers and journals of not-your-tribe?

which includes my personal thought about this dilemma: education. democratic consensus that our society is built on certain values, one of which is the ability to deliberately ponder and discern "news".

I understand I live in a country privileged with proportional representation, which is much less prone to polarization than a fptp by district congress. good luck to all of us..
I'm with you there. Greta Thunberg has done what exactly?
Making money is like a clicker game, such as Cookie Clicker. If you are earning a wage at a job, you're still in the boring part of the game where you click to get cookies. Wealthy people are playing the metagame, buying the grandmas and factories and space vortexes that automatically generate cookies. And that's when the game gets fun.

I think our concept of "greed" is a bit misplaced. Greed is not about having more money just to have it. If you or I had as much money as Bill Gates or Donald Trump, we wouldn't know what to do with the huge amount left over after all our needs and desires are met. It's about being able to buy the next thing that automatically clicks for cookies, so that they can continue making cookies (money) faster. Increasing the rate of cookie generation means they're winning at the game. It's their hobby, it's their passion.
It isn't at all true that hunter-gatherers had only status and not wealth.

The Native American tribes of eastern North America used wampum, small, regular beads made from a few specific shells, as a store of value and medium of exchange.

Yes, they couldn't own that much more than they could carry. Some of these peoples did farm, some didn't, but all of them relied on hunting or fishing, and most had to move around at least a couple times a year.

But a wealthy Iroquois could wear enough wealth to buy many times what he could carry in meat, tools, furs, and anything else which other people could make available.

Shell money isn't limited to the Native Americans, either, it's been found in paleolithic grave goods and was quite widespread anywhere Europeans encountered hunter-gatherers.
off topic: this anti facebook stance by some people here on HN is getting ridiculous.. sad this is a comment here that apparently gets upvotes. I would say that if you do not care about Kolibri os just don't comment..

I've made the edit. Thanks for the tip. I've enjoyed and learned from this exchange with you.
At this point can we consider that whenever "Science" is used as a reified subject ("science shows"), the conclusion is almost guaranteed to be bullshit/wrong/politicized, etc.?
If anyone has a hard time empathizing with unexplained acronyms, read a bit of https://www.reddit.com/r/churning/. I think the jargon is okay for the nature of that community (taking advantage of credit card sign up bonuses) but following discussion there can be really confusing until acclimated.

Example sentence: "CSR CL can be lowered. Need $5k CL to PC it to most cards, $10k to PC a(nother) card to CSR. Recon might only be able to drop it to $5k, you might have to SM to go lower than that."
> Queries for business metrics are usually scattered, written by many people, and generally much less controlled. So do what you can to make it easy for your business to get the metrics it needs to make better decisions.

A simple but useful thing is setting the database default time zone match the one where most of your team is (instead of UTC). This reduces the chance your metrics are wrong because you forgot to set the time zone when extracting the date of a timestamp.

Would this potentially leak consecutive TOTPs to an attacker who connects to all 1,000,000 or so possible addresses at 30 second intervals (and records the one that responds)?
That is a good point but I should also add that fail2ban as a daemon and its default configuration to watch log files for other popular daemons (example: a postfix smtp traffic log) has changed very, very little in the past 5-6 years. It's not very much of a concern in terms of keeping track of configuration changes in major system upgrades.
"NULL out all identifying information" is anonymization, not deleting the information.
It may have been per year, I don’t recall. The waste in that photo does not seem very deep, so it’s possibly taking up a lot more area than needed.

So if we go by that stat (300 million tons per year) we need 0.3km^3 per year for the United States to store all of its waste. So let’s say we have a hundred years worth, that’s 30km^3. Could we dig a hole 30km^3 somewhere? Not really, we can’t dig that deep generally. If we made this hole (or structure, it could have walls and a net over possibly) 100km by 100km it would need to be 2.7km deep/high to store 100 years of garbage.

It would be difficult to do this, and would probably need more area to be feasible, but I would think it would be less of a mess environmentally to try to contain the problem to a few sites like this rather than having smaller poorly contained dumps all over the world.
> > They will watch the market fall

> The market won't fall, that is the entire point. It reasonably cannot fall, since the only politics that could make it fall (buildout of rural infrastructure, overriding NIMBY shit) won't ever pass. Inertia is massive.

That's probably overoptimistic. There are political circumstances that could cause metropolitan property values to fall on annual or even decadal timescales.

Consider, for example, the possibility of policies that have the effect of curtailing real estate investment by those exfiltrating funds from various regimes.

Or policies that made every school a good school, ending the (sometimes huge) price premium homes in 'good' school districts get.
Really nice write up! I'm excited to see more coroutine tutorials and guides come out, I think this C++20 feature has huge potential to make C++ easier to use over the next decade. I will also say I was a bit surprised to see libcoro linked in the article! I'm glad you found it useful but I need to give most of the credit to Lewis Baker's cppcoro as well -- I learned most of what I implemented into libcoro from his fantastic repository and then tuning the coroutine primitives to how I'd want to use the library for an HTTP web server. I just generally find there is no better way to truly learn a difficult concept than to roll your own version.
You can still do politics before and after work at your workplace entrance. You can even stage a walk-out where you demonstrate outside the office/factory/etc. But loudly spraying your opinion into your workmates ears who have no choice to be there is a form of torture. If there happen to be opposing loud "enlightened" people it will be a brawl. Although sometimes it's so one sided that the office can turn into a sort of one-party state. Politics is best kept out of the actual workplace
> Wealth is the thing you want. Wealth is assets that earn while you sleep; it’s the factory of robots cranking out things. Wealth is the computer program running at night that’s serving other customers.

In reality you still need people to earn money. Wealth really is the control over the limited means of production which allow you to gain out of the work of others.

There are also positive sides to it though: Having other people earn money for you is a pretty high incentive for bringing into the world new means of production
In that case, you leave.

If you're a decent engineer you'll find work in a few weeks and any other startup will be happy to have you.

Unfortunately for non engineers I understand that may be more difficult and for those starting out too. So matter of perspective definitely since engineers aren't the only employees at a startup, but I would hope with due dilligence that is caught while you're interviewing.
