You know, I've been thinking about this a lot lately, and I think in our (laudable) effort that's ramped up over the last 15-30 years, as a society, not to shit on people who become mentally ill or fragile in the face of certain adversity or stress, we've made becoming mentally ill and fragile the most valid way to respond to stress, always above criticism, and in a real sense generated more of that than would have existed otherwise.
I wonder if this will be the first domino for change in Russia…
The concern is that in a legal dispute, the FSF might not have legal standing (I.e. in a lawsuit) if the code had been contributed by and remained the property of someone else. And what if that person could not be found.

I wrote the blanket assignment back in 1989 or 1990. I still consider this a legitimate risk.
I'm not sure I understand your zinger. Are you saying that it's unreasonable to ask experienced programmers to demonstrate a small amount of their programming ability, or to ask basic or easy questions?
I'm not sure they have much choice, since they're not the ones driving the innovation.
All my embedded design work has been in C as i don't need all the extra cruft.

Also anything i want to be very fast on limited hardware i also use C and C only.

As for any hobby programming i do on the side, C is usually my goto choice, unless i want to be very esoteric.. following along the lines of:

Metropolis | Los Angeles, New York, or Remote (US Timezones) | Full-Time, Remote-OK | Backend Engineers, Frontend Engineers, Fullstack engineers | https://metropolis.io

Metropolis is revolutionizing the complacent parking industry with a computer vision-based ticket-free parking solution. We are growing rapidly after recently raising a $40m Series A, and are seeking engineers across the stack to continue building out our platform. The backend is scala & play, and the frontend is typescript & react. Experience with the languages is not required, but we are ideally seeking candidates with at least a couple years of work experience.

See the roles here: https://metropolis.io/careers
If anyone wonders why our approaches look so different, it's because I assumed ideal evidence that cleanly disproved one hypothesis without affecting any of the others. I did choose the list of hypotheses to ensure that was (approximately) valid.
Joe random citizen has a much harder life in places at the wrong end of USA's, Russia's, Turkey's, Israel's, China's, and others' interests, countries who can afford to deploy such technology at scale or have a propensity for projecting their power.

> why would they choose one of these drones over the traditional method

Why does anyone use automation or AI for anything? To have dozens or even hundreds of drones constantly in the air with close to no supervision from drone operators. When you're going after an enemy false positives and collateral damage matter very little, if at all.

> Much harder for a weaponized drone hit to look accidental

Nobody bothers making deaths look accidental in the places these drones will be used. If reality showed anything it's that they barely bother to argue when they bomb schools and hospitals beyond the boilerplate "we're fighting terrorism".

This kind of tech makes a bad situation even worse for many people in some parts of the world. But you'll start worrying about it only if/when someone decides to use it somewhere in a civilized country, closer to home. I'm sure so many people will suddenly find plenty of arguments against the autonomous killing machines then.
Examples? (Presumably there's some browse history that you're referring to which we may not be experiencing the same way. So citing sources is critical.)
In fairness, I think those "different reasons" are pretty significant (preventing people from fleeing oppression vs controlling the spread of a disease). You can criticize Australian COVID controls as heavy handed without comparing them so directly with a repressive dictatorship.
Is Belarus the first thing they worry about, though?
I can't entirely tell whether you're missing this or simply beating around the edges of it, but:

The focus on openness for mental health, to the exclusion of all other solutions, is about productivity and hierarchies.

Employers and managers aren't ready for their employees to take care of their mental health. That would often involve paying for them to have better access mental health care. That would often involve them having relatively sudden and/or extended absences (followed by greatly improved health and much better productivity!) and they're not going to pay people for extended breaks. It would often involve adjustments to the way people perform work and interact with management. It would likely involve removing a lot of abusive people from management roles, since they are likely causing a lot of these mental health issues.

People with authority are not prepared for a system that accommodates mental health issues in a serious way.
I'm disappointed to see many of the big Belgian brands (other than Cote d'Or) were omitted. I'm particularly partial to Neuhaus and Galler. I was very surprised to see Lindt in the top five; I personally find it to be waxy and weak. But maybe the version available here in US supermarkets is not the same as the European product.
*see Moby Dick
Third party Javascript is the problem, and adblockers take care of that. Turning off JS entirely often blocks content on sites, be it images or something else.
The problem result is not the goal of the exercise, I don't care if you solve it, but rather how you approach it.

Note that I don't use puzzle problems, but more open-ended ones that elicit discussion and architectural approaches rather than simple coding.

When I'm interviewing I'm google for all intents and purposes.

I want to see how you interact, what you're thinking and how it would be like working with you as a team member.

I look for potential and red flags. I try to find out two main things:

- will you be good for the team?

- will the team be good for you?

It's a two way relationship we're trying to build here.

Interviewing is a lot like speed dating, we're trying to find a long term partner in a very small amount of time.
So you decide to double down on your wrongness? Windows Defender has a marginal impact on performance, such that for most users and most tasks it's not even perceptible.

> need me to LMGTFY

You've provided zero evidence to the contrary. The burden of proof is on you.
The best part is despite all the shit they've gotten for telemetry, they didn't have any metrics to justify this, just a product managers hunch. They've put in metrics now, now that they've hidden the menu option so nobody not gone out of their way to look for it can turn it on, so likely nest year they'll use it to justify killing it for real.
In addition to all you said, you mentioned your car...do they also pay you for your commute time? Of course not.

Say you have a 1hr each way...2 hours/day, 5 days/week, 48 weeks/year, $100/hr: $100 * 2 * 5 * 48 = $48,000. WFH literally just saved you $48k of billable time.

Buying a 4k monitor (that you can also use for non-work activities) on your own dime is probably reasonable.
Can you perhaps explain what Azov Division is and why it is "neo-nazi"? Before your comment disappears in down votes.
im thinking this could be coupled with architechture on demand [AoD] default state something like pseudo i8008
until the appropriate trigger for pseudo gen 11 mode occurs

this of course all requires local control of microcode.
couple this with a volatile programmable gate array and you not only change the microcode but you physically change/stealth, the on-chip resources that are available

Rights are NOT often in conflict. Genuine rights are private, and do not overlap with others' equal rights.

What you are describing as a right: the ability to subject others to warrantless mass-surveillance, violates the core liberal principle of Western culture, namely the rights to privacy and the presumption of innocence.

And for good reason. There is no evidence at all that abrogating these core rights makes people safer, either from threats in general, or specifically from crime.
It's much harder to enforce policy on those who leave, compared to enforcing policy on those who enter, is it not? If the reason for the policy was sincerely due to pandemic concerns, couldn't they have just stopped people from entering, regardless of nationality?
Laws get undone all the time. Prohibition, slavery, gay marriage, segregation, etc.

> The lowering and elongation of crossovers back to a classic wagon form would bring back a nostalgic piece of American motoring. It would be a mostly cosmetic change for drivers and families, still giving them everything they need in a spacious vehicle. And it could make all the difference for everyone else.

Wait, who is the "everyone else", what's the "all the difference"? I am not understanding what the author is saying is preferable about station wagons to anyone (instead of just being cosmetically different but about equivalent to an SUV), am I missing it in the article?
Also support for Websockets and chaining those w/ rest calls. (I know insomnia doesn't support this, dunno about others)
Good points of evidence, however you can't read too much into the google trends. A lot of technologies peak when they are new and then fall to a steady state.

My only options for escaping Sidewalk are living far enough away from neighbors or convincing all the neighbors within range of my house that they shouldn't have any Sidewalk bridge-able devices.

What's the limitation on adding additional vertical layers though? One apparent limitation could be that by adding several vertical layers it would require the wire to be longer.
Agreed. The main role of the network, as with any service provider, is being transparent to the functioning of the communities that use that service. Disturbances in the service's functioning are the main things that break that transparency, and calling the hurricane that turned Freenode into Leenode a "disturbance" is greatly understating the impact that it had.
It is when you're very strict about what you allow to happen. (which is the case with iOS apps.)
US consumers are well-known for wanting cars that are extremely oversized. Most American nameplates don't even make sedans anymore. Entry level is SUVs.

Station wagons were usually 4 door, the strongest body type, and when they were popular in the 60's and 70s had very strong construction, not least because they were family oriented.
They look like Hearses. Very few manage to make wagons that are not painful to look at (Volvo, Audi)
I suppose there could be. Is it possible to reach an emotional state without perceptual input? Maybe?

While I can see where analogy of "make invalid states unrepresentable" is coming from, but I feel that how we talk about them can get in the way of changing them. "Emotional invalidation" is a good search term to find phrases that shut down opportunities for change.

The two party system is usually a side effect of first past the post voting systems. Since elections only allow voters to choose one candidate, a third party candidate end up splitting the vote and taking votes away from the candidate who is closest to their political stance.

People see that and decide the rational choice is to vote for the candidate that they hate the least with the highest chance of driving, and third parties merge to form coalitions that actually have a chance of winning. Rinse and repeat until you only have two parties. (CPG Grey did a great video on this https://youtu.be/s7tWHJfhiyo)

Check out Ireland for how to set up a voting system that doesn't converge to two parties
As someone who doesn't drink more than 2-3 per week and have in the past been in the 2-3 per day category, perhaps it's related to age and/or kids. When kids were tots, I couldn't afford the time to socialize, and now I'm older, consumption has dietary/sleep impacts and I can't afford that too much. Also weirdly I simply don't enjoy the buzz as much.
> Ten drinks isn't that much hard liquor: it's about 450ml. That's a little more than a can (392ml).

Sure, the volume isn't unfathomable. But most people drinking a Mickey (13 ounces ~ 9 drinks) would render them useless.
What about meeting people through volunteering or by even joining an open source project?
I second this. I appreciate having access to foreign language primary sources even if they are not my native language since there's less of a bias filter other than sterile translation software
8 hours of sleep plus 8 hours of work leaves 8 voluntary hours. You could make a case then that 2 hours of commute is giving up on a fourth of your weekday free time. Factor in the prep for commute or time needed afterwards to decompress and perhaps a third is more accurate.

This is an interesting question, but it seems like it would get better traction on Twitter rather than HN.
I'm going to make you feel a bit more ill - contrary to the intro of the article, the PRC did not actually invent the mobile lethal injection van in 1997.

The first ever mobile lethal injection van was actually, as far I know, from Delaware in 1986 : http://www.doc.delaware.gov/deathrow/history.shtml [1]

Beyond lethal injection vans, around a half dozen countries also employed gas chamber vans, with the first known example being in Nazi Germany.

[1] For some reason Wikipedians came to a consensus that only Chinese execution vans should be mentioned in the article titled "Execution vans".
It is very hard to understand why anyone would support Putin and what is going in Ukraine and Belarus, if all your understanding comes western media. However if you talk to these people, you get a different and oddly fascinating perspective.
> This is probably one of the least intellectually humble/curious things I've ever seen someone write on hacker news.

Goodness. Unfortunately, you'll be positively devastated to learn that this exact discussion has been ongoing in countless threads here for over a year.

> There's an entire literature base being developed on exactly this question, and the answer is very clearly "it's complicated"

It's not that complicated. We have enough data at this point to start revealing signals where they exist. So far, there is some evidence that individual behaviors (e.g., masking, physical distancing) can have positive effects. There is also increasingly strong evidence that state-imposed controls (e.g., lockdowns and mask mandates) have not significantly affected the long-term course of the pandemic.

> This is not a question that can or should be effectively litigated in the comment section of a hacker forum by armchair epidemiologists, at least not without thousands of hours invested.

If your constitution cannot abide listening to people discuss this (or any) topic without first completing your requisite thousands of hours of research, I might gently suggest that HN isn't a safe place for you.
code rots, Operating systems deprecate libraries that systems depend on. I personally wouldn't' mind paying on a subscription basses to ensure long term viability of a product.

I mean, the core value proposition here is quite good. I've been wanting something like this for awhile. but I'd feel a nervous staking my entire testing flow on a product which has no incentive for ongoing maintenance.

I'll definitely purchase it. I can easily justify it as a business expense and I hope the author of the software finds ways of plugging this product into a larger saas offering so he can continue paying his bills by maintaining this.
As someone from Belarus, this is not true at all.

While Lukashenko had some support prior to Aug 2020 election, it dropped to <5% at very best following his ruthless attack and torture of citizens and peaceful protestors.

The only people supporting him now are siloviki, i.e. military and police heads who directly benefit from him remaining in power. Although many within the police elites wish him out as well.
The second one is an out of focus blob and the first is a nondescript dot. It'd probably be more interesting to hear what it was doing. Satellites go fairly fast across the sky but they go in straight lines at a constant speed, and they don't stop, reverse or turn.
Though binary blobs are a thing, albeit a somewhat controversial thing.

Assuming a BSD-licensed Linux is a fairly small step away from assuming that Linux didn't exist given the existence of various BSD Unix flavors. And most people I know feel fairly strongly that, in the absence of Linux, BSD Unix would have come to the forefront.
isn't it too late now? can you still get out?
It would be bad intelligence to not spy on Americans considering how easily we are bought by other interests. The soviets had moles in every branch of federal government, and governments like china and russia no doubt still do.
BSD Unix predates Linux by 10-15 years. Personal computer versions were roughly feature comparable around 1992 (when I made my "should I install Linux or 386BSD" decision; Linux had shared libraries, 386BSD didn't).

I know how I'd answer your question.
