Heh. I've a few times asked questions, only to be pointed to my own blog for answers.

Ask HN: Go-To Cryptocurrency-Related Sites
As someone just dipping their toes into crypto, what are some high-quality sites for all info related to them?

I'd prefer sites that are neutral/free of marketing and cover all the tech, new coins etc.

Bonus points if they have an RSS feed :)
This is nonsense, online credit card payments would not be able to facilitate multi-million dollar transactions and allow the proceeds to just disappear like that.
There was censorship in the form of calling the hypothesis of a lab leak (distinct from the hypothesis of an engineered virus) a debunked conspiracy theory. The fact that the theory is considered acceptable again is what people are claiming vindication for, and rightly so.
People don't risk angering national governments and shutting down economies for fun. They do it either for ideology or money, and the former motivation makes it difficult to staff up a talented cracking team.
Your comment confirms that it is a problematic term.
I quote from the Oxford Dictionary:
"wet market n. South-East Asian a market for the sale of fresh meat, fish, and produce."
There is no mention of animals in poor condition and on-the-spot slaughtering. That's your prejeduce.
> So people shouldn't have any say just because they have lesser in-demand skills?

Actually, yes, that's how it works. If you are valuable and hard to replace, management has to account your desires and listen to your feedback, allowing work from home, 3 month vacations, and even for you 'calling out their BS', if you are very valuable. Because your skills are the leverage you have over management.

If you can be replaced easily without much cost, then you don't have leverage, and you are in no position to oppose your bosses. More so, if you are economically dependent on this job and you know that you wouldn't be able to find a new job easily, the situation is even worse because your bosses have very big leverage over you. If management says, 'working from the office', such workers can only say 'sir yes sir!', and do as they are told.

That's how it works in real life, and it is natural, so wow dude yourself.

However, every non-mentally impaired person is gifted with a capability to learn and acquire new skills, greatly increasing own worth at a workplace and improving job prospects.
not signing the contract?
I've been following similar products for a while now and the main problem with them I find is that they all are made by people who are not related to game industry but try to create a gaming experience. As a result they all look very basic, with at best average UX and visuals. I am not trying being negative here, just my observations.

I'd really love to see a take on such product from an experienced game dev team.
In France you can already use public services like the tax service, social security etc to identify you as a person.

It works pretty well.
Worst part of this drug is that you are chained to the delivery system and infrastructure. You cannot back-carry two month's supply if you need two packs a day.

I bicycled coast-to-coast USA while I was a smoker. Soon discovered that I can smoke only evenings, because I could not keep the 200 km per day pace with any nicotine in blood. And at the end was not a smoker anymore. This was so easy that at another months-long wilderness trip I did not take any reserves and suffered most horrible withdrawal symptoms for weeks.
> While the racist violence that happened was deplorable, it is entirely amusing to me that we are fine with calling it UK/Brazil/South African/Indian variant but not call it the China virus/flu.

Why is this amusing? In N.A. there is currently (and pre-dating Covid-19) substantive differences in xenophobic response to China/Russia vs. the other countries mentioned. The former are the go to political boogiemen whereas the latter are either allies or patronizingly viewed.

Colonial Pipeline CEO Explains the Decision to Pay Hackers $4.4M Ransom
I think you are missing a fundamental feature of what makes Make special, which is how it handles dependencies. It uses file timestamps to decide what to do and especially what things to skip because they don't need to be done. All those .make.* files serve a purpose, as Make will compare the timestamp of those files to the prerequisite files (source files) and only run the shell scripts if they are outdated (in the process recreating the target with an updated timestamp). So if I didn't change any of the source files, there is no need to lint or test again, since nothing changed, there can be no different result. Same goes for installing requirements (a lengthy task). If the requirements files don't change, nothing needs to be reinstalled. But if I pull in new changes from a colleague with an updated requirements files, running any Make target that has a dependency on those requirements will run the scripts to update them without me having to think about it.
Do you suppose the reputation for lack of production-readiness of Btrfs at that point was earned? What about now, 12 years later?

But even if it was production ready in 2009, it seems like it would make more business sense to keep the most mature and just cancel the other one, like Adobe did when they bought Macromedia.
I've been using the term woo for decades, but I didn't know either of these. Just brilliant!

Quibble - it's _bona fide_, pronounced "bonna feeday", because it's from the Latin literally meaning "good faith".

It sounds Fidé as in "Semper Fidelis", always faithful, or "Adeste Fideles", "Oh, Come All Ye Faithful".
In the scenario where a client computer with access to files via a network share becomes infected and encrypts files, but the server is snapshotting the file system that those files are stored on.

Also, OpenZFS can export ZVOLs over iSCSI so you can have formatted block storage for other devices that can be rolled back by snapshot on the OpenZFS.

In a virtualized environment all of the VMs' storage could be protected with snapshots.
"Farmers' markets may be indoors or outdoors and typically consist of booths, tables or stands where farmers sell their produce, live animals and plants, and sometimes prepared foods and beverages. Farmers' markets exist in many countries worldwide and reflect the local culture and economy. "

"A wet market (also called a public market or a traditional market) is a marketplace selling fresh meat, fish, produce, and other perishable goods as distinguished from "dry markets" that sell durable goods such as fabric and electronics."

Sounds like a farmers market is a kind of wet market.
First one is easy. Elon is a pathological liar.
This is interesting! I had implemented a similar system a while back for a mobile OS company. It was used for optimisation of the rendering of the UI scenegraph. The rectangles were cut(taking into account alpha blending) before feeding it to the renderer to improve performance. This was all post-layout though. Didn't realise that it can be used for layout as well!
> Additionally, the "deflate" compression likely does not span across files

Clarification: .zip (unlike .tar.gz for example, or "solid" .7z) compresses each file separately, that's nothing to do with the compression algorithm used. In addition, DEFLATE, the LZ77-based compression which is by far most commonly used in .zip (and also by gzip) has a window size of 32kB (uncompressed). So yes, even if you used DEFLATE on a solid stream (e.g. zipped a .tar archive) it couldn't remove any cross-file redundancy once it's gone past the first 32kB of each file.
This is incorrect given the new WHO guidelines https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jun/01/covid-19-varia...
> Is there a way to fuzz non-string inputs?

Fuzzing usually revolves around strings because of escape characters, escape sequences. There is a much larger set of string characters than there are for the 10 or so numeric digits. Numbers don’t have the same problems that strings do, because numbers are usually interpreted only as data, whereas strings can be interpreted as data or computation.

>The belief at Sun that only Sun could make good use of its own technologies, and anything created outside of Sun was trash.

As a former Sun employee, I can tell you that's true: people at Sun wouldn't even look at competing technologies because they were sure there was nothing useful to be learned from them.

That's why Bill Gates and Anders Hejlsberg were able to screw Sun so badly by examining and copying the good things about Java, and making something much better: C# and CLR.

While Sun totally failed to learn from any of the good things that Microsoft or Apple or anyone else did.

>We are better off with all the wood behind one arrow.

Nice reference to the old Sun slogan and 1999 April Fools Day prank, in which Sun employees put an enormous arrow through Scott McNealy's office.

https://findery.com/johnfox/notes/all-the-wood-behind-one-ar...

All your wood notwithstanding, it also helps to chose an arrow that isn't flawed and doesn't totally miss the target. For what it's worth, Scott McNealy also put all his wood behind another arrow named Donald Trump.

The problem with Scala is that it's a huge language and it gives you a lot of ways to misbehave. It is the same exact problem that C++ has - too many people turn it into an intellectual exercise and a dick-measuring contest of who can write the most elegant (unreadable) code. If you ignore all that, Scala is an amazing language.

> I don't understand what bsdiff does, or is.

It‘s a binary diff/patch utility.

> What are some real life use cases for it? When does a developer need such a tool?

Incrementally update binary files e.g. assets or runnable binaries instead if having to re-send the entire thing on every update so e.g. games, browsers, package managers, …

The standard diff/patch utilities are text-based and even when they do extend to binary data their algorithms and heuristics tend to be biased towards textual contents.

Bsdiff was built specifically with an eye towards executables.
> Trainers don’t seek to extract the maximum value from an athlete only to discard them if they’re hurt.

They kind of do? I get the point the article is trying to make, but they're just throwing everything at the wall to make that point, even when it doesn't really match reality.

> It’s little wonder then that reports continue to find Amazon’s comparatively high injury rates: Amazon’s warehouse workers had almost double the number of serious injuries compared to other warehouse workers in 2020, which is actually a “marked” improvement compared to the numbers from 2017, 2018, and 2019.

The article they quote says "the interpretation of the OSHA data used to classify a “serious” injury — which, in the various reports here, is defined as those that require time off or work reassignments — is skewed by what the company claims is more generous recovery time".

(I don't know whether this explanation even makes sense, though I feel it does. On an intuitive level, it feels to me that every logistics company probably overworks its employees; I don't see a reason to assume Amazon does anything that every other warehouse doesn't do. But maybe I'm wrong and Amazon is uniquely bad.)

But when they quote their own article, they get to skip the counter-claim (which the original article doesn't refute) and make it sound like their point is undisputed.

This is bad faith journalism.

This comes as no surprise. I mean, this is the same company who thinks adding little booths into their warehouses to try and improve mental health will benefit these overworked employees. They look like those suicide booths in Futurama.

Is it too much to ask for them not to treat their employees like slaves? Is it too much to ask for an eight hour work day? Actual bathroom breaks (I read their forklift drivers pee in bottles because they aren’t allowed to take appropriate bathroom breaks). All while paying them what they’re actually worth, given the work they’re doing and the level of stress Amazon puts them under?

This is absolute narrow minded hogwash. I’ve been part of two profitable-without-outside-investment companies that have started in the last twelve months. The only secrets are to be - or work with, experts in the field, and solve a problem. It’s the usual adage.

An expert can mean you’re qualified in the field or you’ve been in the specific game a long time.

Just make sure it’s a real problem and that you don’t spend months beavering away at your secret project without speaking to people and validating.

Just don’t listen to people like this who tell you the hotels’s full. There’s always space at the Invention Inn.

Good luck.
you omitted the rest of the quote:

"[...] but they still cannot explain the unusual movements that have mystified scientists and the military, according to senior administration officials briefed on the findings of a highly anticipated government report."

And, later in the text:

"[...] And while a forthcoming unclassified version, expected to be released to Congress by June 25, will present few other firm conclusions, senior officials briefed on the intelligence conceded that the very ambiguity of the findings meant the government could not definitively rule out theories that the phenomena observed by military pilots might be alien spacecraft."
You’re right, they completely differ from each other (regarding their relevance) and should therefore face an adjusted amount of scrutiny.

If you’re one of the top pharmaceutical companies in the world, some press releases and study protocols are simply not enough [1] and should be (imo) discarded.

If you’re a new player (Vaxxas) claiming “complete protection” by testing your product on mice, it’s simply not enough and should be (imo) discarded.

> That increase in diversity is a direct result of talking about the issue of intolerance in the workplace, making it more comfortable for different people to work there.

"Intolerance in the workplace" is pretty vague.

Nobody should be tolerant of Marxists and Critical Race Theorists. Half of the US population has sadly lost their way. Guess we need another World War to cure the rampant navel-gazing.
> Expect a lot of on-the-job training that’s more challenging than you’d think since these languages/frameworks are different paradigms.

“Different” than what? Its not the 1990s where everyone learns only C++/Java-style static class-based OOP anymore.

> I worked at a well-known everyday consumer tech company where the payments platform went down for the better part of a day as people scrambled to figure out what went wrong. Noone had read the de-facto Scala bible which warned that catching `Throwable` could break your code.

That’s a pretty horrid example for “Scala is a hiring problem because its a different paradigm”; lesson one for exception handling in every language I’ve used that has exceptions is never catch everything, only catch specific exceptions that you know what to do with. And in virtually every language, catch-everything is a minefield waiting to blow up in your face.

There's a balance here between a mall/restaurant and a supercharger, and tesla does not have the upper hand. There's a limited supply of drivers per hour that can become customers so their franchise will probably not perform well. It's more likely that tesla will be paying malls to install their chargers rathef than vice versa
Honestly, this is an incredibly unimpressive article.

You can't say the savings rate goes up while also saying that increased spending via stimulus is causing inflation. You can only have one or the other. Those are at complete odds with each other.

The far more obvious explanation is that the supply side has "collapsed" and that should be obvious and the problem isn't monetary inflation, it's just in time manufacturing causing extreme bullwhip effects.

Think about car manufacturers canceling their semiconductor orders. If they hadn't done this, car prices wouldn't have risen as much as they did.

The real question is, are our car manufacturer executives stupid enough to keep canceling semiconductor orders? If yes then enjoy stagflation for years to come, if not then you will have to wait until semiconductor manufacturers catch up with the new orders.

Go one step further and bomb all car factories. You're going to see hyperinflation in used car prices.

If you are smart about it you can create money without a corresponding debt (aka printing money i.e. something the Fed isn't doing right now) and spend it on building semiconductor plants and then end up with deflation as prices of semiconductors drop, therefore using an increase in monetary supply to explain inflation will always cause problems because there are so many exceptions.

Yes, this means if Zimbabwe were to print money and use that money to support farmers it would actually get rid of its hyperinflation.
It’s not an outside investment though.

> but the fact of the matter is that before the App Store, people were not willing to pay for apps. Apple created the market singlehandedly.

Umm.. this is some serious revision of the history.

- People did pay for apps. I along with plenty of other devs happily paid for Sublime Text while not going through an app store.

- There have been app stores that predate 'iOS App Store' like the Steam store, people paid for apps in it as well. It is infact cross platform and competes with other app stores.

Apple did not invent app distribution or the concept of paid apps.
