You should know that saying some of my favorite people are jewish is something that sounds pretty bad. The idea that you would be branded as an anti-semite and lose your job because you are critical of Israel also sounds bad.

A lot of people are critical of Israel's policies, including many Israelis. There is absolutely no problem with that.

Enthusiasts and early adopters either already have compatible systems or would go for (3) or (2). And I've installed several CPUs with fans and heatsinks but am not a "hardware hacker"--I don't even own a soldering iron. And if your system has a TPM connector, it would be silly to pay someone else to connect a TPM to it, and if it doesn't then it would be pointless.

For the Legacy BIOS piece, has anyone tried using Clover? It's a bootloader designed for Hackintosh systems. macOS is and always has been EFI-only on Intel computers, and when Clover was released EFI was still uncommon on PCs. So, Clover has its own EFI implementation that can be started from a BIOS boot.
In my experience the people who decide these things talk about branding. Not user expectations. Phone, tablet, and desktop apps have different interfaces anyway. And few people use more than 1 desktop OS and 1 mobile OS

It’s in the action sidebar (like https://getdrafts.com/assets/img/custom/screenshots/ss-03.jp...). You can type some information into a new draft, then run the “Append to Today’s Journal” action.

At the end of the day, go to today’s “Journal for …” draft (or run the “Go to Today’s Journal” action to jump straight to it). Then run “Process journal actions” and it’ll process each line of today’s journal draft, then archive the draft.

I don't want to doubt you, but this sounds like 'folk wisdom' or 'common sense' logic, rather than fact. You are not seriously claiming that every piece of land is hit by earthquakes or hurricanes once every 50 years? While they get lots of attention my guess would be this is a shark attack-like phenomenon: its so unusual that its news worthy, which is why people think it is more frequent than it is.

There are certainly earthquake (and hurricane) areas but the majority of the US population does not live in those. I'd need some risk/benefit analysis and actual data before believing they are even a factor in the equation for most people and areas. I can think of 100 other possible reasons (eg historically people moved frequently, or it was simply cheaper to rebuild than maintain as building standards/expectations change frequently, or in the cities you anyway expect someone to come in and buy up old building stock and rip it all down to put something bigger in, or ... ).
You'd think that the Microsoft Director of Operating System Security would know what works, right?
Another likely reason is that balloon framing makes use of single studs that extend the height of the structure, with the 2nd floor suspended.

To start, social media != social network. I am saying that HN and other forums are a form of social media, albeit a very primitive form. Forums enable individuals to interact to create and exchange information, as opposed to mass media where things are centrally distributed and consumed with no input.

> This description would include email and SMS

I would absolutely consider SMS and email to be a social network, they are just limited and have fewer features.

Definition of social network from wikipedia:

> A social network is a social structure made up of a set of social actors (such as individuals or organizations), sets of dyadic ties, and other social interactions between actors

> no one describes those as social networks

I do acknowledge that there is a more nebulous popular definition of social media which refers to the major platforms. However, when you try to define what makes them different than email and SMS, things get challenging. If email, an network of independent actors exchanging information isn't a social network, then what set of features would make it a social network and why? All of the major platforms have different sets of features, some of them overlapping. What set of common features makes them a social network and why?

This sounds like a very anti-American sentiment. You don't get to air the dirty laundry of a country trying to keep a lid on chaos because they do something you don't like now and then. I want to know that the intelligence agencies, and the military that safe guard us, are able and willing to go to any length to preserve our way of living, even if it means they overstep. Not just one country, but all Five Eyes and then some. Because if they don't, there are actors all over the world who will take advantage of any "shame" and use it as a weapon until they subjugate you to their rule. Look at Russia and China for great examples of that. If you think the things these agencies do are so bad that they need to be voted against, you have no idea how bad things really are. So no, Assange's "only crime" wasn't "sharing the truth about the shameful inner workings of our American government." There's nothing to be ashamed about. He should be thankful he's still alive, and you should be thankful you can post this kind of a sentiment without having any repercussionary fear. Hope for your sake that it doesn't change.
> Ouch.

Ouch, indeed. We ended up getting lucky and found a workstation where someone had left themselves at a root prompt on another machine that had a shared NFS mount. This was before protection from this kind of attack, so we were able to create a setuid root script and run it on the main server to get root access to fix the broken passwd file.

Our next step was going to be rebooting the server. We were pretty sure that faced with a corrupt passwd file, SunOS would drop to single user mode. Never tested that theory. Glad we didn't have to, the server in question was a hack job as it was. Copied over (literally, as files) from a previous server, it wasn't even 100% in agreement with itself on its own hostname, so I always kinda wondered how it would react to any big changes.

Windows support will continue to at least 2025, so it's hardly like users are being left behind - they have multiple years to upgrade, and Microsoft has typically extended its support window when the time comes.

What MS is doing here is forcing OEMs to package TPM 2.0, which will be a massive win for security.

The intel generation is seemingly a bit arbitrary, we'll see how that plays out. But again, it's not like people are being left behind - they have 4+ years of support left.

In my opinion, and it seems in the NPR editor’s opinion, the most exciting angle to this story isn’t the cure of one relatively rare disease (TAA), but rather the seemingly imminent cure of many/most inherited diseases which affect cells of the liver. Indeed, we can even make edits that confer protective benefits to people at risk for diseases due to mutations OR lifestyle (see a similar approach by Verve Therapeutics). This is a big story which deserves the attention grabbing headline.
this was many years ago, as a junior dev .. management was stressing out over how to make our app faster -- long query runtimes. Naively, i pitched that we should run the queries in advance so they would be cached. simple enough. we did some dry runs. it looked good to go. we pushed to prod. its sunday night and i'm asleep, the query runner activates .. and our app proceeds to DDOS our data layer. Not only taking down our prod, but the prod of every app subscribed to the data store.

I wasn't oncall, and the oncall didnt have access to the query runner script -- it was on my laptop. So, oncall was desperately trying to fight a fire they couldn't put out while i slept like a baby .. that was a fun monday morning meeting.

> I can't spin this job as one something with python experience

Two points on that:

a) I could be wrong, but I wouldn't expect "professional Python experience" to be the main relevant bit for "Data Science" jobs - sure it's a tool you need, but self-study can cover that.

b) can you use your current job for (or shift it towards) experience with data analysis etc? Really depends on the company if that's possible, but a job in controlling doesn't sound like the worst starting point to be able to play with data. And maybe use a bit more of the usual data science tooling than strictly necessary for that ;)

I see your worry about being shoehorned into a specific technology stack vs more general skills, I'd be somewhat worried about that too. And it's likely easier making the in the next few years than later.

At least having said job means you have time to evaluate options/self-study/... now. Go interview in a few places, see what they offer for your current level from your self-study, what the feedback suggests you should improve, ... At your age "I have this other job but am learning on the side" is not a surprising or uncommon story.
Every thread that's ever about US housing construction, some Europeans chime in to talk about how strange it seems to them to build houses out of wood, rather than stone/brick/etc that, as you put it, will "last for a very long time".

Here's the thing, though: most Europeans seem to be suffering some pretty serious misconceptions.

First, Americans build out of wood because we have wood, lots of it. Europeans don't skip wood because brick or stone is superior -- it's because Europe is largely deforested. Europe doesn't have wood for people to use at the same scale.

Second, wooden houses last a plenty long time. "80-150+ years", as you put it, is entirely expected for a well-constructed wooden house. Neighborhoods that date from, say, 1850, e.g. in New England, have plenty of old wooden homes that people adore because of their character.

Third, wood construction has a ton of advantages. Not only is it less expensive to build, but it's tremendously more energy-efficient when filled with insulation. Brick and stone homes are absolute energy guzzlers both in hot summers and cold winters. And remember, e.g. in New York State you're dealing with 100°F (38°C) summers and -10°F (-23°C) winters. Insulation matters.

The idea that American homes are somehow lower quality or shorter-lasting because they're built out of wood is a myth through and through. To the contrary, they're built out of wood because that's the best construction for local climate and availability.
If I couldn’t use the old reddit interface I would have stopped using reddit entirely a year or two ago. Not only because the new interface is even worse than the old one, but also using the old one allows you to dodge most of the issues listed in the article. I could list another 1/2 a dozen annoying changes or limitations, including massive functionality downgrades on mobile web. Once old reddit isn’t usable, I suppose I’ll be entirely done with the site which is a shame after 13 years.

Reddit went from being simple, bare-bones and friendly to overwrought, baffling and user hostile.
During my training, ~2004, I managed to kill the TCP/IP stack on an IBM mainframe running z/OS by accidentally creating a fork bomb with a perl script meant to test the performance of the newly installed BIND9.

Fortunately, it was on a testing system, SNA continued to work, and the system was due to be rebooted on the weekend anyway, so it was not that bad.

Not myself, but a few years ago, a new coworker managed to accidentally delete all user accounts from our Windows domain while trying to "clean up" the Group Policies. Our backup solution, while working, was rather crappy, so we had to restore the entire domain controller (there only was the one), which took all day, even though it was not that big. Fortunately, most users took it rather well and decided to either take the day off (it was a Friday) or tidy up their desks and sort through the papers they had lying around. A few actually thanked us for giving them the opportunity to "actually get some work done".

"Otherwise if we're going to walk the line of "well even though it's your body, 'us smarter people' say it's bad for you there for you cannot do it" will inevitably lead to the logic of dictating abortion rights as well."

The first problem is that you are claiming that the child's body is the woman's body. It isn't and you know that. You know that is it an entirely distinct human being with it's own DNA, etc, etc. In order to justify abortion, you would need to argue that murder (which is the direct, intentional killing of an innocent human being) is justifiable. The logical consequences are devastating. For example, if murder of the most innocent, powerless, dependent, and vulnerable, by those with power over them no less, becomes justifable, then it becomes impossible to argue for the legitimacy any human rights whatsoever. You can't just make up moral principles out of thin air or assign arbitrary boundaries to them according to taste.

The second problem is that this logic seems to put the cart before the horse. In other words, you've decided that abortion is a right axiomatically and you've decided to dismiss anything that would undermine that belief. But the moral acceptability of abortion is not axiomatic and must be judged according to prior moral principles.

"This is exactly the logic conservatives use with the Covid Vaccines but because liberals "know what's good for everyone," people shouldn't be allowed to make the "my body my choice" when it comes to a vaccine."

See my first point above. Here conservatives are indeed speaking of just their own bodies, so this is a false equivalence.
Your claims are implausible, as well as being off-topic.
