I highly doubt either FB or Google show “left wing” stuff. Neoliberal and liberal stuff sure. But they aren’t going to be showing you Bernie and other left wing stuff consistently. That’s not even their politics, not that that’s what matters anyway.
All of that is software controllable on many devices, especially on SoC based NASes. Working range of adjustable regulators is almost always higher than the device connected to it (resistor may be used to set the default voltage for example), on pretty much all HW I've seen so far with no way to set hard limits. And you can also cause issues just by abusing transients even on regulators that can only be turned on/off. Thermal protection on SoCs is usually based on SW regulation loop. (grep for cooling-device through DTSes in Linux tree, all those SoCs have regulation in SW)
And that's still the case here? This is just one more possible punishment. I'm sure if at tech companies workers were receiving docked vacation they would be raging on HN.

I'm not ok with it, but the two sides of the issue seem to be status quo with more resources vs. actually shutting down law enforcement.

The thought of going into small scale politics with my ideas has crossed my mind but A) I think I would alienate both sides and B) seriously concerned that someone would come try to shoot me (from either extreme).

I like your different opinion on this subject. It’s nice to see some dissent on this site.

1. There is a tendency on this website for people to post concepts of "Let me pat myself on the back for saving my life." Kinda like an Alcoholic that stops drinking and expecting a reward. Saving your life or saving yourself from depression is the reward.

2. Why does this have to be written in small form paragraphs on Twitter? Are we incapable of stringing more than 2 paragraphs together?

Do you have any evidence that it is uncommon to take your vacation days, or is this just a bunch of anecdotes about workaholics? Vacation days wouldn't be a thing if workers didn't care about using them.
There is a live proposal right now, by one of the Debian apt developers, who was just here a couple days ago talking about it. I agree, it's not clear what's happening yet, but signify-style apt signatures are not a past-tense thing right now.

I don't want to reopen a can of worms on that very weird age vs. PGP thing you wrote (Debian isn't going to use age) but again, I think you should correct it, because it openly advocates for malleable unauthenticated encryption, which beclowns the rest of the points it tries to make. If you want to recover from single (or multiple) bit errors in your ciphertext, you don't relax authentication of your ciphertext; you forward-error-correct it.

It implies a much higher level of service. A high end car wash (full service including interior vacuuming and wiping down surfaces) is about $30 (yes, bay area prices). “Detailing” would probably be $200 or more and means leaving your car there all morning.
If you're done with the tech industry, and your wife finds her dream job and your kids need a dad at home, I can recommend folding laundry. It is like car detailing, but you love your customers even more.

Fauci admitted in the first month of the lockdown that he only considered medical concerns, not educational or economic.

So:

1) He was the wrong guy to be setting policy during corona.

2) This was known a year before his emails were released, which point to an international conspiracy of virologists attempting to maintain corona, and likely GoF, funding.

Without billions in govt. funding, their labs (and careers) disappear.

The various virologists worked a circuit between US, Canada, Australia and China. All 4 countries are involved in a coverup that various journalists have exposed.

I work on cryptography at AWS, and long before that I worked on Skype a bit, so I can't resist commenting! Wickr features end to end cryptography, https://wickr.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/WhitePaper_Wick..., and I can't see why we'd change that (and even that framing is a bit weird, I'm sure Wickr will continue to be autonomous but maybe with access to more resources from the rest of Amazon).

Increasingly, end-to-end cryptography is what customers expect. We also use end-to-end cryptography in other Amazon systems, most recently including Ring doorbells - https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360054941511-Unde...

Grabbing images of women from social media, and aggregating them without their consent, is not necessarily illegal, but it's certainly exploitative and creepy.
> The community of python users, which include companies with ten year old unmaintained scripts, did not want it invest to transition until the absolute last second.

Try shipping python3 scripts to systems that only have python2 interpreters. Doesn't work very well unless you also start to ship the interpreter and all its dependencies. I learned my lesson and just avoid distributing any Python code to customers now.
The conversation stopping seems to be the agenda of modern day. Nobody actually wants to solve issues, because then they can't argue on the issue any longer. So when the questions get tough, pivot, gas light, whataboutism, whatever to avoid getting pinned down.

For actual furthering of the discussion on wording, something vague like 'any dialog presented to user must be done in the most consumer friendly manner' isn't very good because it's too vague. Getting specific like 'automatically checking/highlight/enabling the options vendor prefers' is too specific because then the vendor would use something not a check/highlight/etc. These kind of things are ripe for "spirit of the law" interpretations, but we've long since given up that kind of good intentions.
there was an election in NYC recently, and police were at the locations where folks cast ballots.
That's exactly my point - Amazon have given that figure as their estimated savings, so either that's an insanely overinflated figure, or my point stands and if you save one of their clients several tens of thousands of dollars they'll give you a "prize" of a tshirt. They probably spent more money producing that video than they will pay for all the t-shirts they'll give out.

$77,000 for a t-shirt. $1,500,000 for a jacket. If you're saving somebody that much money who cares whether Amazon gives you a t-shirt? So either have prizes comensurate with the alleged savings involved or don't insult people with such low value prizes.
I expect this won't catch on until it becomes a wearable technology, and then it will catch on overnight.
This is just not true. China has a range of problems ahead of it that freer (and less populous) nations do not.
LOL. Developers are so gullible. It would be cute if it weren’t so tragic. They’re giving out t shirts and jackets for 10s of thousands of $ worth of work and we’re lapping it up. Vogels openly said it helps AWS customers reduce “costs”, he’s not even trying to hide it
I think the email was completely effective in denouncing a behavior. Telling people to "fuck off" isn't required (nor desired, in my opinion).

> I smell (but have no idea of the merits of) a class action lawsuit.

Class action lawsuits don't seem to help anyone except lawyers. I'm not being cynical; they really seem to benefit only lawyers. I've gotten caught up in plenty of class action payouts over things like this, and invariably I lose more on the time wasted reading the letter or email about it than I gain from being part of the class. Things like checks for $1.90 or a month of "free" service from something I haven't used in years. I want companies to be punished for egregious failures (not sure this one qualifies), but I'd honestly rather have the money go 100% to the government and be used to fund more enforcement and prosecutions. It's adding insult to injury when they make token reimbursements to us peasants.

"I'm new to the Go community, but I can already see the effects of this in Kubernetes,"

Well, then, good news, this is mostly an effect of Kubernetes being its own ecosystem. It's implemented in Go but it is not generally considered a good example of a Go project. First of all, there's a great blog post somewhere about not looking to the largest projects in any language in general, because they tend to become their own ecosystems, but I don't know where it is. It's right, though. Secondly, Kubernetes is an extra-specially-bad example of a Go project because it's actually a Java project that was ported into Go, and even today the architecture makes that very clear that's how it evolved.

The Go ecosystem in general is actually pretty good about backwards compatibility. If you're starting out new, you shouldn't even necessarily notice this "go get" change because for you the new way will just be how it works, and the new way is easier to understand for a new person than the older, more confused way is. Plus, you have to opt-in by upgrading your Go compiler, and that's really quite optional; if you choose to stick to one for a while, you don't miss out on many libraries, because the language hasn't changed much. It isn't until generics drop that you'll start seeing libraries that you must upgrade for, and if you ignore the libraries that are literally "we're deliberately using generics to do things we can only do with generics" I expect it to be even another year or two minimum before you start seeing other more generally-useful libraries start to require them. I certainly don't intend to go back to all my libraries and retrofit them with generics just because. I don't think there's a lot of pressure to keep up with the latest compiler all the time.

HN has a lot of people waiting with bated breath for Go stories to drop who like to come in and complain vigorously about whatever the Go team has done, despite not using the language themselves. I don't mean to discount people with real experiences, but HN's sound and fury are not always proportional to the real problem. (Just because someone don't like Go's type system and the fact that it lacked generics for so long doesn't mean that piling on and moaning about some not-all-that-significant change in how the tooling one wouldn't be caught dead using and don't know much about is a useful thing to do.)
A loud minority of twitter mob participants shouted "You want to kill grandma!" every time anyone tried to discuss the full costs of the lockdowns. People don't want to risk their careers saying things that are unpopular with twitter mobs (especially in academia). So now we're effectively governed by emotional neurotics and government can no longer make reasonable decisions based on a dispassionate cost-benefit analysis.
It's interesting you say they've focused on base building because (IMHO) they need to double down on this. It's come a long way but it's still so awkward to build bases and do basic things like flatten ground, snap a lot of base components to wood/cement/metal sections and so on.

Also they do things no one asked for like limiting teleporter range.

I understand your point about there not being a lot to do. I mean you're not wrong and if that's what you're looking for, I understand it may not be for you. To me, NMS is really about just chilling out and doing stuff. That stuff is largely self-directed like finding the right kind of planet ofr a base, building that base, getting the ship you want and fully upgrading it. You don't need to do any of that but if you enjoy that you can.

Being open in this way is a key part of fostering emergent player behaviour.

It's also completely OK to play it for awhile and then decide you're done. Personally I've played >200 hours. Every major patch changes and adds to the major storyline so it can be worth starting a new game to see what that's like.
All systems with rules have outliers. If Roth IRAs are hugely beneficial to a large swath of the middle class and at the most extreme outlier it lets a billionaire dodge what is, at the end of the day, a barely significant amount of taxes maybe the correct response is to not care. If policy reaches a local maximum for distributing good and you're upset that someone is wealthy, maybe it's your own envy that's at play.
Yes, that's my current solution. But I'd rather have something fanless, with internal drives and no need to setup linux and/or samba, etc...
> They're also based in Russia?

No, they’re based in Australia. They’ve been blocked in Russia recently though.
Sandboxes are hardly watertight, especially considering the hardware vulnerabilities that seem to be pouring in in the last years. And the phone have taken over the space for useless applications from the desktop. Most desktops today only have a browser and some office application installed.

But that is besides the point, because a hardware token is almost impervious to attack. One would have to engineer a very specific bit of software or hardware and have physical access to this token. Requiring a phone app to confirm a payment made on your desktop just increases the attack vector.
I disagree with this comment, but it's a shame (albeit an unsurprising one) that it's flagged into oblivion instead of responded to. I think the question illuminates something interesting about the incompatibilities between our pre-social-media notions of privacy and our current public posting behavior.

I don't have my beliefs on the topic clearly articulated, but I'll give it a crack. There's the argument that public information is public, and that there's no issue in aggregating it or otherwise making it more accessible, as long as the access is through legitimate means. I'm sympathetic to this and understand why people believe it, but I think it contradicts other consensus moral intuitions about privacy rights. A salient example that other HNers may be familiar with is the doxxing of Scott Alexander; any intellectually honest person familiar with the internet can tell the difference between "you can find out who he is if you do some digging" and "real name published by the NYT", despite the pathetic attempts at dismissing the possibility that doxxing him was bad (amusingly, including by people who I am 100% sure would find the bikini example to be a horrible violation). Hell, I was a reader of Scott's for years before I first came across his real name. The entire social Internet is built on security through obscurity, because opsec is hard and many people aren't constantly vigilant.

There's even precedent for these intuitions outside of the social media context. It's uncontroversially okay for someone's face to show up in your photo taken in public; once you've taken it, nobody cares if you study the guy in the background. However, aggregate and operationalize this, and it changes not just in degree, but in character: It's practically a trope in thrillers for universal CC cameras + alphabet-agency elbow grease to stitch together comprehensive tracking of an individual, and the public is rightfully a little creeped out by the thought.

The main difference here is that technology, as always, is democratizing the ability to do this, pushing the threat model from the unrealistic "NSA spends huge resources to track you" to the prosaic "facial recognition can just track and store everyone's movements at low cost" (or "some under-the-radar shop is aggregating your bikini shots") and a million other mundane violations of our moral intuitions. To my mind, we're in the uncomfortable period before a new norm equilibrium is reached that matches the technological context. This has already happened locally: I'm sure this group knows people who have good opsec since the early 2010s, and "treat everything you post as if it's public" is at this point an age-worn piece of wisdom.

Defeatist. As if there is a game to be won. Do you really believe that humanity will stay divided into states with vastly different lifestyles forever? And even if you believe this, do you have any reason to believe that the most powerful country would be any other than the largest [1] one?

[1] Largest here does not imply area, I am more thinking of a combination of factors including area and natural resources which are not affected by technological progress.

Do judges have this kind of power any more? Thinking in terms of all of the mandatory minimums and what not that tie judge's hands in deciding cases.

Judges being able to "know it when they see it" would be the only way "spirit of the law" type of legislation would work. Then you have the problem of Judge A in District 1 being much more lenient than Judge B in District 2. Not sure if that's a bad thing or not, just mentioning things.

Yeah I suspect the real connection are people who look to depend on the office culture to provide a key part of their social interaction. In some cases that will track with age, but not always.
Next time play the Arena Commander mode which is a game within the SC/Squadron42 games and functions as a simple ship combat sim and a great tutorial for folks like you who want to just mess around in a ship.

So much of school is socialization with other human beings. Beyond academics, children need to experience being in a group and learning about how people are supposed to interact with each other. And most of this is not explicitly taught, but acquired through trial and error and simple monkey-see, monkey-do. You can't get that level of interaction and fidelity online.

That certainly isn't the goal, it is strictly meant within the context as established by the root comment. To present this at the present time as a revolutionary breakthrough and to suggest using this test in particular for mass screening is not a path that will lead to a good outcome unless a lot more data is gathered to support that position.

The people that have built this are at the forefront of this field, I've been following them for quite a while - since the announcement in March last year - it has direct bearing on some other things that I'm involved with and I'm hopeful that it will at first be a useful diagnostic tool and that in a later stage - after the kinks have been worked out and there is sufficient data - that it might help with more than that.

Preventative medicine obviously has its place and for selected cancers we are now in a phase where early detection leads to improved outcomes. But we should continue to be weary of overselling this - the same has already happened with other cancer tests.

Absent symptoms mass testing has serious risks and these will obviously be taken into account when setting policy, the article is actually reasonably neutral in this respect so I wonder why it leads to an immediate response that is equating this with a medical revolution. It may well be, but there is no evidence right now that this is the case.
