Affirmative action is a Western attempt to help previously discriminated against groups through re-introduction of institutional discrimination. I don't like to use the term because i don't want to promote institutional discrimination and believe in individual rights. But if forced to use it, I don't think males are a discriminated group in Japan or places like India if it even applies to such places. This is the more old fashioned kind of institutional discrimination. Can affirmative action ever apply to males? Yes theoretically. But it's not this.
I agree in general, but for HTML5 parsing, Servo implemented HTML5 parsing from scratch directly from specification, and experienced no problems. HTML5 parsing part of specification passes all kinds of tests you can think of about standardization with flying color.
Webflow is definitely in need of more features (with their last funding round I bet you’ll see them soon). But even with those hiccups, you can just move so much faster inside Webflow to update or completely redesign a site than with Wordpress.

For example, I work with a Saas company that has their designer throw together landing pages for competitor comparisons and integrations in like a day, and they change them weekly based on testing.

You just can’t do that on Wordpress at that speed without making a mess with heavy plugins and bloat.

I feel like repeating an old comment of mine ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27231194 ) here:

> Conforming to the spec is not a virtue.

> When the spec is malicious, conforming to the spec is malicious behavior.

> I'm comfortable calling it a bug in the spec. `a << 40` needs to have 0 in the lowest 40 bits. It does not need to have random values in bits 8-31.

> This behavior is documented, but that doesn't make things better, it makes them worse.

> But the philosophy that says "if it's documented, then it's OK" doesn't even allow for the concept of a bug in the spec.

LeetCode is an excellent collection of problems you’ll never encounter in real life. If you don’t have a computer science background you might learn some things. Otherwise, it’s just solving silly problems for the sake of solving silly problems.

> In fact, TOTP is arguably more secure, since it isn't nearly as vulnerable to hijacking as SMS is.

Indeed, this is an argument you can reasonably make.

> TOTP is no more a password than whatever one-time code you'd get by SMS.

But this isn't; this is just a blatant lie.
> TOTP is fundamentally a password

I see this view a lot. It's wrong. TOTP is fundamentally different to a password, as the stored "password" (by which I presume you mean the key) is never transmitted anywhere.

TOTP in fact has one property that makes it potentially* the most secure of all 2FA methods: it can be used airgapped. As the credential you type into the 2FA form is not the saved secret.

* I say "potentially" because the relative inconvenience + human factors conspire to make it less secure than e.g. U2F in most cases. But assuming hypothetical perfect conditions, there would be nothing more secure than TOTP for 2FA.

TOTP has all of the properties of passwords, and no properties that passwords don't have. That makes it... a password.

I really like the idea, and as the founder of Budibase (https://github.com/Budibase/budibase) an open source low code platform for building internal tools, I wanted to show my support.

This is something the market has needed for a while. We integrate with Airtable and when chatting to a lot of users, they have voiced their concerns around a lack of Open Source alternative - most migrate to Budibase's internal tables, but some, mostly non-technical users, prefer the spreadsheet interface. Going forward, I'll recommend your tool, and I wish you all the best :-)
Yes, it seems the control system isn't real-time anyway, so this discussion is moot. But to answer your question:

A real-time system can still have inputs that can not be guaranteed, and internal processes can have an upper and lower bound for their execution time. So a result would be late if either:

1) $T_{input} + t_{process_min} > T_{deadline}$
2) $T_{input} + t_{process_actual} > T_{deadline}$

(where $T$ is a timestamp given by some time source and $t$ is process duration). Condition 1 can be determined on arrival of the data, and the input can be discarded immediately. Condition 2 cannot be determined beforehand, but if the processing isn't finished at $T_{deadline}$, the process/thread could be killed without waiting for it to complete.

Of course, this requires that an accurate deadline can be determined for each input packet. The textbook use case is for rendering live video streams, where stream latency is more important than rendering each frame accurately. This flight control system is a similar use case, since the utility of the camera feed for determining location or drift rapidly declines as the picture ages.

But if the timestamp-keeping isn't accurate as it seems in this case, it really doesn't matter if the system was real-time or not.

A password is something you're supposed to "know", i.e. something in your head.

A second factor is something you have, i.e. your phone, a hardware token, or access to a shared secret you don't store in your head.

Password managers kind of mangle the idea and turn the password from something you know to something you have.
The amount and quality of the professional/VC network available at the start make this pretty hard to emulate.

About a decade ago I made a PHP scrip that would turn a Word XML file (back before docx) into a html file, including image extraction. It would convert the basic styles to appropriate elements etc, and pulled in some template files for sidebar etc. The resulting files (html + images) could then be uploaded as a blog post.

I never got around to actually writing much and so it never saw much use, but I've been thinking about reimplementing this idea lately.

> Caveat: Saying “Just write it in rust” won’t change the fact that writing secure software is hard.

Absolutely. It's just that statistically the memory safety bugs have been the dominant percent of all the bugs, so rewriting core tools in a memory-safe language does make sense.
Sigh...

From the exact same article:

> According to Simon MacKenzie, "callous self-interest and a desire for retribution played a role in the fate" of German prisoners, and he exemplifies by pointing out that sick or otherwise unfit prisoners were forcibly used for labor, and in France and the [Netherlands] this also included work such as highly dangerous mine-clearing; "by September 1945 it was estimated by the French authorities that two thousand prisoners were being maimed and killed each month in accidents." [...] In retaliation for acts of resistance, French occupation forces expelled more than 25,000 civilians from their homes. Some of these civilians were subsequently forced to clear minefields in Alsace.

Yes, the Soviet Union was extremely brutal on a scale and with an intensity higher than most other contemporary countries.

Advanced scientific instruments disguised as toys
We’re launching a single molecule sensing device, the demonpore 64™, marketed as a gaming console. You fill a reservoir with real cells and molecules, which go through nanopore sensors, generating signals that let you play games as part of vast, distributed experiments.

Described by one enthusiastic fan as "the coolest citizen science project I've ever seen", the demonpore 64 will advance science with games that range from classic arcade-style fun to puzzle, strategy, and role-playing formats. The data collected will enable innovation and discovery across many disciplines, including astrobiology, aging research, genomics, carbon capture, molecular gastronomy, veterinary science, agriculture, neurobiology, synthetic biology, and drug development.

Some examples of the molecular games we’ll play together with the demonpore 64:

Dragon Tyrant Must Die!™: the game that represents our epic quest to end aging, named in homage to Nick Bostrom's classic Fable of the Dragon Tyrant. Players will begin with method development for detecting and characterizing molecular and cellular hallmarks of aging.

Molecules of Mars™: the molecular game of astrobiology, where players will study nanopore sensing with (e.g.) Martian regolith stimulants, novel biochemistries, and cyanobacteria.

2021: A SARS Odyssey: Players will use only non-toxic, non-biological molecularly defined surrogates that model the differences between related viruses, and the algorithms developed by the network will enable FDA-approved solid-state viral diagnostics in our 2nd generation instruments.

Poop of the Gods™: Explore the sacred stinky! Yes, players will put their own (filtered) poop into the reservoirs and study nanopore translocation signals from cells and molecules in fimo, with relevance to virtually every aspect of biomedicine.

True, you can also get struck by lightening on your way to the room, the asbestos may also save your life from a fire.

Everything is a game of chance. You can quantify your chances of dying with micromorts, it is a good way to put things into perspective.

Dying of cancer because you spend a night in a capsule containing asbestos is, I believe, so ridiculously low that you might as well worry about being killed by a dog swimming with a gun in his mouth when you go to the beach. I mean, unless you are doing things like taking an angle grinder to the capsule, something the owner might object to.

Really, asbestos is mostly an occupational hazard. Once it is in place, the risks are low.
> For example a lot of complaints that can be made about C and C++ don’t apply to Haskell yet this list parades a Rust counterpart

I think there's an obvious case for being aware of rewrites from high-level memory-safe languages (not just Haskell, of course) to Rust, although the case is obviously different from rewriting C/C++ code. Besides the obvious improvement in performance (Rust being on par with C/C++ itself) it gives us a better idea of whether Rust is actually missing features from these languages in a way that meaningfully impacts maintainability.
