Terminal emulation and text editors are the obvious ones, notably because DISPLAYING TEXT should be trivially fast in a world of multicore multigigahertz processors and GPUs with ridiculously fast shaders.

Casey Muratori has been running down the insane failings of terminal emulation lately:

This is to say nothing of the fact that VSCode is the most popular editor on the planet and that the very notion of allocating several gigs of ram to embed a web renderer ( one that is constantly having to be patched for the annual round of UAF vulnerabilities ) in order to DRAW TEXT is the very height of inefficient idiocy.
Let me explain, I am not running any services on standard ports. You'd have to do a port scan and find one of the ports running a web service. But they're HTTPs (with unsigned personal certificate keys, mind you) and are password protected.

I still get so. many. random people entering passwords and trying to break in. They don't look like a wordlist or automated bots, they're literally people guessing.

Just because you see a username and password screen after you nmap this public IP, doesn't give you the right to start trying to hack it.
Ask HN: Bonus/Equity beyond year 4 in a tech job?
I am beginning a job search and I don't understand typical compensation in years 5 to N. Everything I read talks about offers covering the first 4 years and laying out the base + bonus + equity during those years. What is normal for anyone after year 4?

Does compensation continue at the year 4 level until your next raise?

Do you take a massive pay cut in year 5?

Has anyone ever stayed at a tech company for more than 4 years to find out?
Any kind of long held connection is state ;)
So websocket, long http one, database connection, etc.

Being able to tightly define what part of your app is impacted if one of these fail and restore it before the rest of the app is impacted is a game changer.

OTP also deeply force you to think of how you start and how you stop these, taking dependencies into account. It helps in cleaning up stuff.
This is absolutely true and it benefits those who take profits off the table to accumulate and buy back in to grow these coins. It's about selling some during the mania and buying back in when the fear is everywhere.

Unless you have bought and held a huge number of coins or received a huge sum from an airdrop from the very start (and the value became worth more than >$1M+ worth of coins.) That is fine and exiting a large sum from the market during the euphoria is also fine.

For newcomers to keep hodling like that (especially in bull runs) for the large market cap coins, it does not work, which is what I'm arguing against.
When I tried it, it was crashing a lot.
>If UAP originated from China or Russia and were a national security risk, their existence would have never been revealed to the public.

I agree with that part.

However, I think it's more reasonable to assume it belongs to the US Government, which would perfectly explain why they don't really view it as a threat.
retro computing is becoming a bit wider than a niche, due to the compromises built into "modern" computers.

From the paper linked in the blog:

"
Physical attractiveness is an important axis of social stratification associated with educational attainment, marital patterns, earnings, and more. Still, relative to ethnoracial and gender stratification, physical attractiveness is relatively understudied. In particular, little is known about whether returns to physical attractiveness vary by race...the magnitude of the earnings disparities along the perceived attractiveness continuum, net of controls, rivals and/or exceeds in magnitude the black-white race gap and, among African-Americans, the black-white race gap and the gender gap in earnings.
[...]
The returns to attractiveness among Black women, for instance, are so immense, that the earnings of the most attractive Black women appear to converge or even overlap those of white women of similar levels of attractiveness. Notably, the returns to perceived physical attractiveness, in terms of real dollars, are similar between White males and Black females even though Black females make significantly less than White males on average. Similarly, the returns to attractiveness among Black men are quite substantial as well, though not enough to see a convergence or cross-over with white men. Among Black women and Black men, the wage penalties associated with perceived physical attractiveness are also so substantial that, taken together, the earnings disparity between the least and most physically attractive exceeds in magnitude both the Black-White wage gap and the gender gap.
"

I don't see a fallback mixing option on that page. Is it called 'Fallback Mixing' on that settings page? Also, these results are pulled from google and bing it seems for every query I do. seems like maybe some reranking is happening. And the query completions are from Bing. So you are sending everybody's queries to third parties. Not very private.
Initiatives like these always tend to hurt the most responsible people more than the rest. The landlords are fine. The people who maybe could have paid their rent on time but didn't want to reduce spending in other areas to compensate for it end up okay. It's the people who paid their rent first and on time then reduced spending in other areas that are the ones getting the short end of the stick. This only applies to people that could actually switch things around like this, though.
Tangentially related. I have fairly unorganized folder with a ton of markdown journal entries, notes, observations, shopping lists, etc. I would like to go through organizing, archiving, and editing these entries.

Has anyone done something like that before? How did you do it in a sane way? Do you just start at the end and work forwards? Do you have some kind of #tagging system and then you applied something like elasticsearch or sqlite to filter them?
The "she" is specifically a phonetic clipping of the "#", otherwise it's just a bang - but oh well, even jargon doesn't mean shit anymore.
As with anything, we have to ask ourselves why are we offloading the responsibility to the OS providers to solve this, when we really have to determine for ourselves if the risk is even a risk at all on our individual systems. Do I care about this hard to exploit vulnerability on a web server that's streaming video content to the public? No. Does it matter on a DB server with important financial data? Yes it does.

Applying the patch should be opt-in if you ask me. But of course, most sysadmins are hopeless. So then the OS vendors push it out, it's safer than letting the decision to uninformed people.
This is crazy. Everybody expects to lose money in natural catastrophes - except, for some reason, if you're in the least productive and most predatory sector of our economy (the landlord), you're entitled to a bailout, for what purpose exactly? What's the human harm that happens if some banks repossess a few over-leveraged rental properties? Compared to the millions who have lost jobs, school years, their health, etc in the pandemic? Making landlords whole should be the last thing anybody is spending money on.
We've gone full circle, and ended up in a worse place. From web sites using the system theme via the browser, to web sites overriding all styling, to trying to adapt to user's preferences by giving only 2 styling options.

I'm so thankful to be in Texas and to have made the choice years ago to home school our kids. Though it has still been tough, being in a better position to make our own choices has made the past year easier. Our kids have mostly been able to continue doing their normal routine with schooling and seeing friends. I feel terrible for the kids that have been forced to leave their normal day to day routines and friends.
This article makes a lot of leaps but I think it does show that the reach of the implications of any kind of tacit confirmation of the "UAPs are real, solid objects flying around at high Gs" hypothesis would have pretty broad reach in terms of consequences to other observed, unexplained phenomena.

How does Brave plan to handle relations with law enforcement and their requests? Will Brave offer a mechanism to uniquely identify the most offensive users?
It really scares me that this even needs to be explained to people. The government is outright stealing from landlords. They literally made it illegal (while also not passing an actual law, as far as I know [which is how every COVID restriction worked as well]) to evict somebody.

So many people have this juvenile notion of what a landlord is, too. They seem to think the only type of landlord is a mega-tycoon that owns hundreds of properties. Don't get me wrong, I am against all forms of theft so it's still wrong to steal from them, but it makes it a lot more apparent how wrong it is when you're stealing from the old Grandma that has 1 or 2 extra properties that she rents out.
Sure. What I mean is at 16:9 you're still getting letterboxing (black bars on top + bottom). In addition to that, it's rather silly to think that just because 16:9 is closer to a theatrical ratio that you're going to ever get a cinematic experience sitting 2 feet in front of a 24" monitor. Or 6 feet in front of a 46"+ TV. We optimized all of our devices for viewing DVD content whether it ever made sense or not. Because home theater was where the money was.

4:3 is better because it fits the application better. What are you doing at your computer? Probably work or browsing the web. If you watch YouTube videos then you have a chicken-and-egg issue... YouTube content is 16:9 because that's what your device is (to see what I mean: look at all the vertical videos today... the content follows the device). YouTube/TikTok creators aren't using aspect ratio in an artistic manner because few of these people are even aware that they could have a say in the matter. Unlike say, Kubrick, who deliberately picks a ratio for each of his films. They are using what the prosumer cameras are designed for, which is all 16:9.

The point is: you're getting black bars if you watch theatrical content whether it's 4:3 or 16:9. The width of your computer monitor is a constant. So we lost vertical screen space for what? Nothing, that's what. Slightly less black bars on the top and bottom when we watch a Marvel movie on our desktop computer or laptop.
That paper compares them to Chrome, Firefox, Yandex, Edge and Safari. Of course your browser phones home less than them, it would be pretty damn hard to make a browser that does beat them for violating user privacy and security.

Brave isn't competing against those browsers though. If you want to impress people who care about security, compare your browser to options like Vivaldi and Ungoogled Chromium. Otherwise, you're just bragging about having less telemetry than the foxes in the hen-house.

Interesting to know that simply advocating for men's rights means you're part of a "larger misogynist ecosystem".

I guess we should tell all of the divorce lawyers who help fathers maintain custody during a divorce that they're misogynist.

What about the fathers and men who advocate for changes to k-12 education to help boys succeed. Are these men's rights advocates also part of this "manosphere"? Perhaps we should make sure only women advocate for boys.

Avi Loeb was on Event Horizon earlier this week talking about this. It was pretty disappointing. When he first started on this whole 'Oumuamua is a space craft thing, I thought it was an interesting but unlikely hypothesis and he was acting in good faith. After this latest round of press from him about UAPs and other nonsense, I am sure he is just cashing in. Just watch... he'll be an 'expert' on Ancient Aliens next.
It seems OP is quite gratified at the rest of us having gotten "... a sample of how miserable pre-pandemic life was for those of us who are more introverted or misanthropic." when even as mostly an introvert this pandemic has been more than the typical anxiety of having to interact with others when I didn't want to.
I don't think it's reasonable to assume it belongs to the US Government under the condition that these objects are confirmed to be real and capable of pulling, say 100G. I think that reality, if confirmed, would leave us rather short on low-surprise explanations fully consistent with it.
On Windows you'll have to delete C:\Windows\System32\mcupdate_GenuineIntel.dll to prevent Windows applying Intel microcode updates. Whatever microcode is in the bios, it will use that.
There are also ways to modify the BIOS to update or downgrade its microcode.

My gaming PC, a Sandy Bridge i7-2600k, has had 20 microcode updates between 2010 to 2019.
The majority were in 2013 until the spectre mitigations came in 2018.
The last bios update for my mobo contains microcode 2 versions behind the spectre updates.

Feed a BIOS image in to this tool to view microcode information.

> So Apartheid.

No, having a different additional celebrations in addition to the main official graduation ceremony, each of which is open to all, that each celebrate an identity isn’t apartheid.

Nor—not, again, that this is what this is—would it be apartheid even if the voluntary additional celebrations were exclusively among people of the particular identity groups. In much the same way that people choosing to have consensual sex is not the same thing as rape conducted as state policy, and just like a couple who both happen to be Black (or both White) getting married to each other isn't the same thing as having anti-miscegnation laws. “Choosing to do something” is not the same as “being denied by the State the option not to do that thing”.
Right. All really smart people 'play'. Famously, Feynman was spinning plates in the Caltech cafeteria on his fingertip, which gave him the ideas that ended up winning him a Nobel prize.

I personally use darkmode when I can. I for one appreciate the sites and applications that put it in. However, I am not going to pester anyone to put it in.

I can see why many would not bother. It means keeping at least 2 sets of colors going. Try putting green text on a grey background for example and you are going to have a bad time. It means making a lot of choices you already made and feel you are not going to get much out of it. I have seen many applications botch it. Thinking all you have to do is toggle the background to something dark and call it a day. It means probably means a redo of all of your art assets, and at a minimum what font colors you are using and making everything respect it.

Similarly, the dictates of fashion preclude any diagnosis of misandry. The internet seems to turn dichotomies into antagonisms, rather than complements.
It's similar to advocating for Corporation rights. It's a grossly over-represented, already thriving group, so advocating for _even more_ disparity between that group and other much less fortunate/under-represented groups is seen as contentious. It's all relative to the actual status quo.
