You conflate election fraud (hacking machines), voter fraud (individuals illicitly casting ballots), and state-sponsored misinformation campaigns. Those are three distinct problems with very different challenges.

You say "no evidence of $x != evidence of (not x)" which is true in theory, but let's step into reality: "No evidence, despite systems built to detect evidence".

You act as if people aren't already on the lookout for fraud, or that systems are not already resistant to them.
And as far as we know the attacks are ongoing.
Do you expect there to be legal recourse when someone does not treat you with the courtesy you prefer?
I haven't had a chance to use the remarkable 2 in an in-person meeting (covid) but with the stylus/pen and its shape, it's really obvious that it's not a consumption device. If it's flat on the conference room table, everyone in the room with decent eyesight will identify it as a monochromatic screen for note taking (as long as the pen is in the picture). Depending on camera angle, it's also obvious in video chats and easy to screen share using their app. Other thoughts:

* Remarkable's handwriting recognition is some of the best I've seen (but that's a low bar). Works well even on doctor chicken scratch but it's tied to their cloud stuff. The calligraphy pen setting helps with the aesthetics of bad hand writing

* This is why the remarkable has been a game changer for me. The pen selection tool allows me to draw an arbitrary shape and selects all strokes that fall within it. I can then drag or copy/cut/paste the selection, which I use all the time to rearrange my diagrams and copy/paste bits that I draw with a straightedge as a template. The big missing pieces are shape drawing tools and an infinite canvas so you can infinite scroll to the sides to keep drawing but with pinch to zoom, I usually just zoom way into a page when I open a notebook i know is going to be huge. Even zoomed out the resolution on the display makes it really readable (I can barely identify individual "pixels" with a 10x loupe)

* If the process of hand drawing/writing/annotating doesn't appeal to you or help with retention, the remarkable 2 is a really expensive ebook reader... with ssh.

> Dictatorships might not be elected, they still have structure and procedure. If the Chinese MSS obeys the Politburo and doesn't withhold information from them, then they are subordinate to the government.

I think you vastly overestimate the efficiency of authoritarian bureaucracies. Much has been written about this, there is a strong taboo directly against sharing information because sharing the wrong information can have lethal consequences. Authoritarian governments are marred from top to bottom by problems caused by friction in sharing information, and subsequent Balkanization.
I don't get the point of the study.
The authors are suspicious.
Their affiliations are undisclosed.
Whole thing smacks of scientific racism.

Google's first result:

>OpenPsych is an online collection of three open access journals covering behavioral genetics, psychology, and quantitative research in sociology. The journals were started in 2014 by Davide Piffer and Emil Kirkegaard, who had difficulty publishing their hereditarian research in mainstream peer-reviewed scientific journals.[1] The website describes them as open peer reviewed journals, but the qualifications and biases of the reviewers have been disputed. Many articles on OpenPsych are about scientific racism, and the site has been described as a "pseudoscience factory-farm"[2] and "academically dodgy".[3]

Are there real people offended by it? Or just three Twitter users?
Companies do differ. Not a high proportion of people are fortunate enough to work for a successful worker's co-op, but there the forces you describe take a quite different shape.

Even in a capitalist-owned firm, enlightened self-interest can lead to decent management practice.
If there's a way to interact with this tool using my email address instead of hooking into my Github account, I'm interested.

That just means it's baked into the price like "free" shipping.

>A house number is assigned by a government in some form

Why is this relevant? SSNs are government assigned but they're private.

>looking up who lives at a certain address is not trivial and will certainly raise eyebrows

But we're not talking about address-to-person or ssid-to-person mappings here, we're talking about address-to-location or ssid-to-location mapping.

>An SSID is created by a private individual for private use and its use as a tracking tool must be discouraged.

What about other privately made identifying features? ie. "I'm in front of the ranch style house with blue walls and a tire swing out front".
Most emergency room bills can get 1/2 or more knocked off just by asking.
I can confirm that. While it's true that the MechE's at my workplace all have CAD seats, we also have a number of floating seats that get used by a variety of people. There are things you can do in the CAD tool, but not in the free "viewer" tool, so we provide CAD seats to our manufacturing engineers, who also use CAD to design things like jigs and fixtures.

I believe it actually takes a bigger and more hierarchical engineering organization to have MechE's who are not busy at the CAD terminal a lot of the time.

In addition, our machinist has a CAD seat, the machine shops that we use all have CAD seats. And while optical engineering is a small field, most OE's have CAD skills.
There are open, crowd-driven databases like Wigle with over 10 billion SSID observations.

I just don't see why this is a problem when apps can't even access your SSID without a location permission.
Hey - thanks - I reckon a hybrid would work well. So the tiers for those that are happy with a regular payment, or a "pay per page" for those like me who are maybe more project based. Will be interesting to see what you do!

Using a HLTE202N to type this, that phone has changed how I view the web on mobile.

Textual information is perceived more clearly and less noisy/biased due to E Ink screen.

Great for navigation under sunlight and lasts very long with backlight disabled.

It's always a small shock to temporarily use a regular Android/iPhone, so noisy and glaring in my eyes.

Wouldn't want to switch back to an OLED phone. Only reason would be color video/photo viewing.
The street address is officially registered, is attributed by the town and doesn’t belong to you. I don’t think you can find some more public than that.

Compare that to the name of your private router that happens to be broadcasted far outside your house for technical reasons.
A comment like "This method opens a separate database connection so as not to mess with the ongoing transaction" or some such would be rather helpful, though.

I mean, sure? How's that different from being 30 minutes late because someone dumped a load of frozen fish on the highway?

This mad rush to be everywhere at a specific time, usually when tens of thousands of other people are also trying to be at a similar spot at the same time, is a major cause of people being traffic. Heck, as the pandemic has shown, we don't even really need to always be in the same physical place to have a meeting; technology can relieve us of that burden.

My family gave up driving years ago, due to cost and stress, and it's been great largely for this reason. I don't worry about dealing with all of the people who have Very Important Places To Be. That's Metro's job, and they do it well.

ffmpeg and associated projects do not rely on autovectorization, which pretty much only works on naive scientific code. They write their SIMD in assembly and don't need to care about compiler settings.
BTW, for the down-voters, this was rhetorical question and not a personal attack. The GP comment created this dichotomy and I was just pointing it out.
It's an opinionated react framework with dev tools to make it easy to:
- render on the client, server (lambda function), or at build time
- easily create lambda function at edge to act as API endpoints

the same ideas have been ported to Vue and Svelte equivalents.
I quit the ACM because they advocate H-1B visas without qualification.

The ACM advocates for people who teach CS and school but couldn't care less for the average software developer: the one concern they are always hand-wringing about is that the enrollment of CS students is boom-and-bust.

What they don't get is that periodically CS students hear about jobs going to India and other problems developers have because we don't have any organization that speaks for us, and decide to study something else. If the ACM listened to us and spoke for us it might solve their problem.

But they don't listen.

IEEE sticks up for working engineers (doesn't take a conclusive position on H-1B) so I think it's a better choice.
IT's funny the title only mention the USA but the article mentions USA and Canadian workers, both having the same percentage of stress. But Canada isn't mentioned in the headline.
Isn't that just what companies are all about? Anyone can do it if they want, (it's not like Google has a State defined monopoly), it's just that it isn't worth it to others.

If you want everyone to have that data publicly then have your government do it...
Ogg World – An Augmented Reality app made by me
It's for Android and iOS. Heavy inspiration was drawn from Scribblenauts. You write the name of any animal/object on the word list and watch as it appears before you in real life, thanks to AR. I'm working on a new update that adds more animals, objects, and maybe some fantasy stuff. Watch the teaser video here if you'd like:

Right, problem solved. Now we just need to identify the few representative use cases. Is it people using a phone, as, er, phone with actual voice communication? or video conferencing? Or those who play games casually or not-quite-so-casually? Or video streaming? Or just for texting and would rather prioritize security and battery runtime?

And that's just the phone. I could come up with many more questions regarding desktop and server usage as I'm more familiar with those.

I'm afraid, there is no one optimal set of configuration options. Not even two or three.
There's already a lot of atrocities on the list that are only tenuously associated with the US.

It seems the issue is that this list is entirely sourced from Killing Hope, which was published just before the Operation Condor information was declassified.
Not in the Senate.
The nuance is slightly different - it's like the CEO's breaking into the homes of millions of Americans. The fellow participants in his democracy (in Israel) were not affected; there are two separate jurisdictions.
OpenSCAD is cool and I do use it when it is the most convenient tool, but I find it to be incredibly slow, and if you don't want the output to be all blocky polygons (which you can only achieve by increasing $fn AFAIK) then it gets even slower.

It also suffers from not having any general-case way to fillet or chamfer edges, which means you have to bear your fillets/chamfers in mind throughout the entire design if you want any (which is why most OpenSCAD designs don't bother).
Can you elaborate?
My understanding is that SSR and NextJS are good for SEO and low powered devices with a slow connection. You load the content before the interactive js ...etc.
Why would enterprise apps care about SEO, slow connection speeds.
If it's data heavy, it means you still need to fetch data from db before you return html, so SSR is pointless.
These are also gross generalizations and seem to revolve around American big city life which is selective (but to be fair is where the majority of our population lives).

But in smaller cities I've been able to find a great balance of both. Work on ambitious ideas but spend evenings and free time with friends and family.
This website is a blast from old web design. Nice!
Useless advice if just about every device with Wifi capability does so, and turning that feature off cripples its functionality.
I don't really understand where this notion comes from. I've used Slack; I've used Teams; I find Teams more than adequate for my organization's use-case. I'm sure that's not the case for everyone, but "Teams is complete shit" is such an odd over-generalization from my vantage point.
This is the real strength of the Pi 400 for this application: sure you could do it all cheaper with used office hardware, but it turns this "just works" intro class into a full advanced IT course (or a full-time IT job for the volunteer teacher).
That could've happened because of pointless detuning - x264 comes with good defaults for everything, but then ffmpeg on top of it used to set everything to "off" no matter what it was, and they were probably using the ffmpeg settings.

The correct answer would've been for ffmpeg to not ship that way.

Anyway, I am an expert on video codecs just like that guy is, and I said what I said ;)
I'm inclined to agree that it likely didn't happen. Too often it's just a couple of people on Twitter (for example) getting offended for likes. Or sometimes it's just completely made up and repeated again and again as truth.
Memory impact, no. Atomic stylesheets are generally fractions of the size of a traditional monolithic CSS file. I've loaded up a 6MB CSS file for development locally and it's instant.

Performance is more complicated, but generally it's never an issue. We've had huge webpages forever, often with many different CSS files and HTML included from all across an application and organization. When the browser has all of the CSS files finally loaded into memory, it's FAST.

Here's an old article[0] that looked into some performance metrics. 7000 DOM nodes per page, with crazy nested selectors. The delta between the different tests was around 10% (10-100ms depending on the browser) from the simplest to most complicated, but the absolute rendering time has was still under 200ms for all browsers. Important to note that this test was also conducted when IE9 was still relevant. Computers, and even low end devices, are much faster than what was available in that era.

I reran the tests from the article in Chrome just now, and the insanity selector test ran consistently in under 100ms on a 2020 quad core MacBook Pro. Chrome's performance benchmarking tools confirmed that number as well as the simple benchmark included in the test source.

We also have to take into account that the types of classes included with atomic CSS frameworks are extremely simple for browsers to parse and apply. Because they aren't deeply nested spaghetti, the browser can more quickly index them for use later in the rendering lifecycle.

I would be interested to see what the effects are of atomic CSS on performance using our modern browser environments, but I would guess it's negligible and not relevant compared to any other part of the page rendering and refresh lifecycle.

Just the mere idea of visiting the USA gives me more stress than I care to experience. After 7 years away I don’t even have a desire to visit.

It takes a solid 5 years to get over what my friends call “that American Fight or Fight instinct”, and I don’t miss the amount of fear,distrust and readiness to fight that is always in the back of your mind being from the USA.

Also, remotely siphoning $$$ off of bay area tech companies while living in the third world helps with stress a lot.
i worked 2 years ago on an energy trading system on local nets for a local port. I was pretty awesome and connected the energy usage to Ethereum tokens. Producers could sell energy to the grid and Consumers could buy.
It worked and was actually deployed for a few months with few participants. Then it got shut down.
But BChain was a major and important part to it.
It's not. I'm super surprised at the lack of understanding by HNers here. It's like folks here haven't heard of wardriving!?

Open databases with 10B+ observations exist: https://wigle.net/

Furthermore, it doesn't matter that these databases exist, because your SSID is hidden behind the location permission API for basically every OS.

So practically speaking, your SSID being public is meaningless.
Not OP but i'll take a stab at this. Many frameworks struggle to allow you to utilize a small subset of their features at full utility without producing additional overhead from features you aren't even using.

Further frameworks can be deceptive by making complex problem sets seem easy to deal with but later involve complex refactoring over time as the problem set is better understood and evidently less trivial for your organizations particular wants and needs.

These problems aren't highlighting any implicit fault of next.js. Just predicting incorrect ways developers will use it and suffer from. There is an argument to be made these problems would be made less severe if they were approached from the ground up without a framework and what opinions it brings.

Also FWIW I like next.js the project a lot. Hopefully Vercel proves a good steward for it.

Bus timing errors! Fun times!

Forgot a wait state? It'll probably work, on most chips!

Even better when suppliers fix, or add, bugs and don't tell you. Or change the firmware they are shipping on a part that's hanging off a UART. Or how about discovering that in the 21st century, one of your suppliers doesn't use source control for their firmware and every time they send you over a firmware blob it consists of some patches applied to whatever code happened to be laying around on some developer's machine!

The people you are describing are more a function of where you live, those people tend to congregate in what I calm “yuppie slums”, shitty made multi family units with names like “aloft” and “elevate” with art and random shit in the lobby. There’s a ton in every US city. And they are all the same.

They attract people who don’t know the city very well and have a check list of amenities. When your lease is up I would encourage you to look at different neighborhoods, ideally a little away from the “revitalized former industrial/meatpacking district” which is probably bougie breweries and wine lounges now.
For me it was the murder associated with production, transportation and sales. Jail was a factor. Health issues also.

The first sick day might be unpaid though. Here it depends on the occupation, as in, which collective agreement your industry uses. I think the idea is that it reduces "unnecessary" sick days, but I think I have my first sick day as paid and I think the last time I had a sick day was around when World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth came out in 2018 (I swear it was a coincidence).
You can meditate (it possible that it works for somebody). It is easier to create an environment where you don’t have to exercise the control most of the time e.g., don’t buy/put cookies on the kitchen table unless you intend to eat them. Though one doesn’t exclude another one.

Sure! As for cost... well... it really depends on what you get. I'd say a decent starter is cost of the van + 30-60k for the build out (including labor).

AT&T has an unlimited 4G for business plan that is only about $100/month. They accept 'consultant' as a business (I went into a store to simplify the process of setting up the account). Get a mifi (Netgear M1)... it has 2 ports for a mimo antenna. Get an omni directional antenna and the shortest cables you think you need. That should get you coverage in most places. I've taken my daily zoom calls on the tops of mountains in the middle of nowhere. There is a newer Netgear 5G mifi out now too, but I haven't looked into it yet as I'm ok on 4G and 5G coverage, especially in remote areas, isn't that great yet.

I spent 2 years on a small motorbike going all through super remote areas of Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos and living out of hotels and short term rentals. Living in a van is easy after that. =)
