I have to disagree. Democracies are generally better at course correction over long time horizons. I think a communist democracy would likely do what capitalist democracies do: economically drift toward center.
And I bet that Amazon pays a lot better for SC (DV) cleared workers than the DOD does.
Or "tank man Tiananmen square" results in results. Still kind of odd, this takes duck duck go with it too.
Awesome! Hope it will work out for you.
Making "mass data collection" illegal seems pretty fraught. I doubt that anybody would want that in its literal form. I'm not sure anyone is too interested in nuking our tech sector either but maybe I'm wrong about that part.
Yeah, yeah, it's the same shtick from HN technologists about anything new whether it's blockchain, JavaScript frameworks, or even Docker way back when.

I stopped heeding the tech elitists here a long time ago and have nothing but benefited from it.
Perhaps it would be helpful to consider an offline analogy. Suppose there were no computers involved and all the information was stored in files in a locked room.

Now Van Buren is given a key to access the filing room for his duties, and then uses his key to go in and look up the file on some license plate in exchange for money.

Clearly, this is a terrible breach of trust and authority. It should be against policy. He should be fired. Likely there should also be criminal statutes about police or government employees selling or abusing government records.

But he's not guilty of breaking and entering. He was given access to that data, even if this is not what he was supposed to be going in there for.

As one of the justices noted, if merely misusing computer access that you were otherwise allowed to access were a criminal offense, then potentially "an employee sending a personal email or checking sports scores on a work device" could be criminal, rather than just breaking a company policy.
I appreciate your many positive contributions to HN, I trust your good intentions, and I definitely don't think you were making the kind of argument that this sounds like. It does still sound like it, though, which is no doubt why you got strong responses below.

If you highlight the first use of the pronoun "we" in my comment, it should be clear that you're responding to a different argument than I was making. (superjan already made this point.)

As for the "sounds like" problem, this string of previous explanations may (or may not) be useful: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&so...
If an interstellar-capable species wanted to wipe out humanity, then they could easily bomb us with relativistic projectiles by throwing their trash at Earth.

If they still wanted the biosphere intact afterwards, then they could alternatively deploy a targeted anti-human bioweapon.
I downvoted this because I can’t read this as anything but a disingenuous comparison. Surely you can understand the difference in scale and motive behind village gossip and global surveillance by profit-seeking corporations.
You can say the same thing about a strange noise I heard in my house last night. I can't say it was a ghost, but I also can't say it wasn't a ghost. Whoever wrote that report would agree with me.
99% of my machines (everything apart from one laptop) has no wifi. Systemd is constantly

Now of course I can return to basics and learn everything again from scratch. The problem with that approach is distros like Ubuntu frequently drop in new features which last 5 years, and then they're gone as they're no longer sexy. This reduces the payoff of learning something new, may as well just continue to fight.

I probably won't use ubuntu on servers going forward as they broke the installer for 20.04 (they got rid of the nice simple debian-installer, which just needed a new kernel/initrd and a preseed tweak every 2 years) and replaced it with some live cd monstrosity. Managed to avoid netplan on 18.04. It's a pain, as it means spending mental effort to make changes to something that just works, and the whole reason I use linux is because it has "just worked" for 2 decades.

It seems all these recent changes are aimed at people who want their linux machine to operate just like an OSX laptop.
I like the part where someone calls cperciva's idea bad, he says what's bad about it then the founder of Dropbox replies saying they're just starting and it sounds like they're in the same space.

If you are looking for a developer who can work across the stack, and work together with your team to explore new opportunities, send me a message or schedule a meeting via my website!

Why me?

- You are looking for someone to create a new product or refactor an old codebase.

- You need someone with experience in developing internal architectures.

- You want someone who is not afraid to learn new skills, and who learns them fast.

- You need a person who knows how to prioritise and balance speed against quality when it matters*

Why not me?

- You are only focused on pushing new features without considering the maintainability of the codebase.

- You are not located in the EU OR are not able to provide a work visa for the UK.

- You are looking for someone to maintain an old codebase.

- You do not allow/provide your employees to develop new skills as a part of the job.

- You do not have a team of employees who love to spar ideas with each other to find new solutions.
Sounds like a rough start to the day. Might I suggest an extra coffee. Works for me when I get to work and everything is on fire.
Why I spoke out against lockdowns
You have no idea what it's like to be a rat, and no basis by which to make this claim. Given that they are intelligent mammals closely related to humans and with similar brain structures, it seems plausible, even likely, that they experience emotions thst are similar (if not entirely the same) as ours.

Humans are driven by food and reproduction too, but that doesn't mean we don't also experience a wide range of complex emotions.
I'm surprised this story wasn't unflagged to be honest

Plenty of people still on this page and downvoting. Irony is had they not flagged this ask-hn in the first place it would likely have gone quiet instead of Streislanding all over the place.
Exactly. Discourse has become censored almost compltely on a large number of non "fact checker approved" views over the last year. Reddit bans permanently over it all over, now Twitter. Facebook gets a lot of the blame but sadly it seems like my the only place my conservative friends have a voice.

This trend of "stop Asian hate" is also not organic. It's designed to use the "your racist" Trump card to shut down any talk of the lab leak or China's response
"Maybe is the combination of rust iron, salmonella, chilling cold water and skin cuts."

Add old explosives with rusty triggers to the list.
>Being an effectively racist talking point is independent of how plausible one believes the topic to be. I'd be at 3 on your scale, but as an independent matter I worry about the combination of how non-actionable the idea is along with how effectively it supports racist rhetoric.

Truth is truth, regardless of whether it supports a viewpoint you decry.

The sad thing is that I am sure there are many scientists who cleave to those ideals. But it seems academia is no more immune to tribal groupthink than the rest of us, and it's usually a bad career move to fight the tide.
Sugar gives me joint pain and headaches so I have started to read food labels very closely. The amount of sugar in a lot of foods is completely insane. Especially a lot of “healthy” foods have a ton of it, for example protein bars, granola bars and a lot of breakfast food. A lot of salad dressing are high in sugar, so are pasta sauces, fruit juices and so on. Most bread has added sugar and pastry has way too much sugar compared to Germany.

Almost everything is sweetened to an extreme level.
Russian version surely has its filters.
It produces average case results in efficiency the most of the time. Other systems produce the best and worst case results more often, in efficiency, specifically due to their lack of inclusivity. We know its better to have less cooks in the kitchen, you just better pray you have good cooks.

> do you agree that currency itself is useful?

Currency itself is useful, but has existed a lot longer than Bitcoin. If we're trying to evaluate the utility of some new thing, merely the fact that it's another kind of currency really doesn't get you much. Ocean Shipping on the other hand gets you a lot of things that other kind of shipping don't get you.
If they retained their employees and didn't take bonuses as promised, I might agree. But they didn't. They made empty promises, took the money, sacked their employees, and divvied the loot. This isn't even good for shareholders. It's pure narcissistic greed
I personally can not stand when an app comes with it's own entire surrounding operating system. I already have an operating system whose very job is to provide a standardized environment for processes to run in. I don't want 50 OS's where I used to have 50 processes. I can't stand AppImage, snaps, flatpack, docker images, etc for mere local desktop apps.

It's fine to serve as a reference, and for reproducible builds, and for appliances like a mail server. But I never opt to run an app that way even just to try it out, and I especially can not stand when an app developer only offers that as the only way they distribute an app (there are some, and not open source so you really have no choice). This prioritizes the developers convenience over the users. If it's their right to do so, then it must be exactly equally my right to say I don't like that and try to avoid using their apps.
Good point. Same here
> Deflationary currency would be an absolute nightmare for everyone except those lucky enough to be holding on to a lot of it before it was too valuable.

The era 1870~1910 in the US was deflationary (as was late 19th century sweden), hardly characterizable as a "nightmare", especially compared to the nightmare that immediately preceded it. The world had a brief experiment with deflationary currency and it wasn't all terrible, in fact one of the two major participants went from "failed state" to "global superpower" in that timeframe, even while enduring the economic challenges associated with freeing its slaves.

Yes, generally the smaller the wavelength, the worse the attenuation. Quick googling: 4g is 600Mhz to 2.5Ghz or 0.5m to 12.5cm wavelength. For comparison, the US Navy uses 80Hz or 3750km wavelength to talk to submerged submarines.[1]

You do realize that CNN has been ridiculing this stuff for its entire history, right? This isn't really a "fake news" type of situation, since arguably the fake news was the ridicule.
Seconded.

Thank you, dang, for a clear, direct, elaborate, level-headed response.

Rats enjoy and seek out tickling.

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/article/rats-tick...

> Panksepp and Burgdorf showed that the animals remembered areas in their enclosures where they had been tickled before and routinely returned to those sites.

> And in the current study, rats were observed performing something called Freudensprünge, or “joy jumps,” after tickling.

They can also apparently feel regret:

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/rats-experience-f...

> Rats showed both a behavioral sign of regret (turning and looking at the missed high-value reward) and were then more willing to wait for a reward following regret-inducing instances, indicating that they learned from their mistake.

Agreed, and I of course agree with the argument you actually were making, rather than my misreading of it. Still, it's profoundly disappointing to get responses including the kind of vicious attacks that you see in the thread.

By the way, when you're not in the middle of trying to keep HN users from coming to blows with one another, you might be interested in this comment of mine from yesterday, which gives some context for why I abandoned the site previously, a decision which I recall puzzled you at the time: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27389993
What if an election is held to determine a set of two "finalists"? People might disagree about who the top two candidates are, but they might be satisfied as long as one of their top preferences makes it through to the second round.

Obviously once there are two candidates remaining, Gibbard's Theorem doesn't apply, so I'm guessing that any procedure which reduces the set to two outcomes must itself be subject to strategy, but it would be interesting if allowing people to cast a separate vote in a run-off election was enough to make the first round no longer require strategy.
That 4.2 million people included all the military and civilian contractors, unable to be hired because they are fulfilling their roles.
Additionally that 4.2 million includes all clearance levels. The higher the clearance, the more the available talent pool SHARPLY declines.
I have first hand info, AWS is DESPERATE for cleared individuals for various contracts. Unfortunately the recruiting has not synchronized their offers with this need, so you get a lot of low balling offers that most cleared people laugh at.
North Korea and the Soviet Union don't qualify as democracies...
Good article. I would suggest following it up with https://pair.withgoogle.com/chapter/data-collection/

Monitoring drift in the inputs, predictions, and performance are all crucial for any models in production. Personally, for input/target drift, I prefer using the D-stat from Kolmogorov–Smirnov test to look for any distribution changes.
Yeah, rat cancer is no joke.
Walmart often has stores in poorer areas than Costco, which is likely why you see the age discrepancy.
Then the CPU isn’t stopping and is moving on doing other work. Meaning the divide by zero could be processed by a background CPU and doesn’t require immediate handling. Same for page faults.
I'm sure that is what it might look like with a vague awareness of entertainment, but it is not only not reality it doesn't even make sense. It also has nothing to do with the thread.

The Inconceivable Case of the $100k Cast-Iron Pan
> This ruling is really confusing for me. So I feel pretty strongly that what Van Buren did is a massive abuse of authority and it warrants punishment.

I wouldn't disagree with your judgement here, but you wouldn't charge him with murder right? Neither should you charge him with hacking.

> If I start selling off information about user to third parties (say journalists), how can that be legal?

Well, by default it would be legal, except I imagine any employment contract would have a provision around privacy, disclosure, and trade secrets, etc. You'd be in violation of the contract, and since you made money from it, some form of fraud or similar would apply.

The question is, would you consider that the same crime as someone without access to the production database breaking in and grabbing the data, and perhaps just giving it away for free (so they'd avoid committing a bunch of other criminal acts).
Looks to me like DDG have fixed this now.
It is hard for me to believe that modern radar systems would have any problems with tracking such drones. And one of the bizarre features of those UAP is that they appear and disappear from radar system suddenly so it is impossible to track their origin or final destination.
Ask HN: How can I utilise my all remaining daily internet Data?
I get 3GB of data daily in my data plan.(can be 4-5 gig daily if i have other family members, they don't use net much, so they dont have any problem if I use their data)
Sometimes, I can't utilise it fully(eg. around 1GB or more will remain), and it goes to waste.
I have watched and downloaded few
movies(mr nobody, mad Max series, frida, ad astra, ...)
and series(breaking bad, devs, cowboy bebop, daria, love, death + robots, ...)
played many games (metro redux, saints row 3, sunset overdrive, factorio, rimworld, botanicula, prison architect, to the moon, the wolf among us, manifold garden, superhot, just cause 3, bioshock 2, dishonored, aoe3, ...)
watched courses on edX, downloaded some courses from academicTorents.com (data structures, ambient intellegent, recommended system, OS)
tried few OSs(haiku, akaros, ghostBSD).

Is there any way I can donate my data for some scientific or other purpose. like running BOINC server programs like SETI@Home; but that doesn't consume a lot of data.

suggest me anything. mostly something useful like a good course/seminar or a puzzle game.
or a game with interesting story or gameplay, any awsm movie/series you found(whatever genre)
Given your experience at this level of abstraction, do you have any thoughts on what an ideal set of opcodes look like? E.g. something like Knuth's MMIX. Do you prefer RISC or CISC? What about RISC-V? How much do the designers of real-world micro-architectures talk to folks like you?

A bit of a tangent, I know, but it feels important.
That might actually make it a good example, if Greenwald is right here: https://greenwald.substack.com/p/congress-escalates-pressure...
So olive oil is a processed food (pressing is the same a juicing). Bread is a processed food. Most salads with diced tomatoes and onions are processed food. Like most similar classifications (eg. organic) it's mostly nonsense.
But unfortunately that could lead to a chilling effect on flagging deserving content. I like having dang and other moderators involved as the final say to reverse a decision if it's necessary. I am pretty conservative with my own flagging and vouching (I've vouched precisely once and it was a comment I strongly disagreed with but was clearly made in good faith and added to the discussion) and I believe that other folks are as well. Since the system mostly works and since social media upvoting algorithms are so insanely complicated to balance well I think it's fair to avoid rocking the boat.
The flagging is clearly unfair...so why hasn't it been removed?

A lot of CCP fans out there it seems.
We aren't, you need to be more specific.

> I have to rebuild the table layout

The "layout" meaning the visual appearance, or the markup?

There IS a "css equivalent of colspan/rowspan for table-layouts," put another way--a way to make a column or row (<td> or <tr>) appear to span multiple columns or rows. It can be achieved with flexbox or with CSS grid.

You don't need to change anything about the markup (HTML) to make this work.

> to make it responsive

"Responsive" as in "responds to the size of the viewport?" The colspan and rowspan HTML attributes do not do that. They have the same value regardless of the size of the viewport. CSS (with media queries) can respond.

> the column-span property is unrelated to tables

Incorrect, it is certainly related, and works there just fine (along with other in-flow block-level elements).
In my experience the documentation around Elixir has been ideal. People are modeling the absolute best of behavior, generally. The popular auth libraries (like guardian) are a bit of an exception in my opnion, for some strange reason. (Pow does a good job, though)
I get that this a engineering article but wow, what a tone deaf title. Nobody outside of Google wants to “empower” YouTube, they have plenty of power already. If anyone needs empowering, it’s the users (aka actual people).

Similar to old theories that babies don’t feel pain.

Spend a significant amount of time around animals and you will see a lot beyond the more base rutting instincts.
>Before Facebook tracking it was old biddy tracking. Through gossip everyone knew pretty much everyone's business.

As already noted the difference in scale, but obviously if you didn't like what the old biddies tracked about you in your small town you could move to a new one and start over - you can't with the global surveillance system.

finally it should be obvious that not everyone lived in a small enough town that the old biddy network was actually useful for tracking you.
Can you link to any evidence that rats simply exist and don't understand the concept of options?
He was still convicted of wire fraud and bribery, how is that a free pass?
Doubtful, otherwise China wouldn't be hiding their morals with propaganda like: "Everything in XinXiang is fine!" and "COVID originated in the US or Italy!!".

If their morals were popular that wouldn't have to constantly lie about them.
Also not a lawyer, but wire fraud was because of circumventing IP address restrictions. Which is hard to claim that such act is defrauding anyone of money or property.
> > Finally, the file system paradigm fails with shared content; you can't save a Google Doc to disk because then how can your friends or coworkers update it?

> Just curious, does anyone know of any hybrid file formats that store information both locally and online?

I'm sure there are better ways to do it, but MS Office can, AFAICS, at least kind of do that: Documents stored in -- wossname, OneNote? SharePoint? One of those, I think -- can be edited in-place by Office Web apps, or downloaded for editing in the regular desktop apps and then saved back on-line and/or locally. If they can do that, I'm sure other apps can also do it (and probably better).
Does the MissingNo glitch work?
