Surveillance in schools is nothing new. The library computers back in the early 2000s had MasterEye, so that teachers could see whether students were using the PCs for homework or games, and block accounts accordingly.

I thought it would get better when I got older, but company Internet is also monitored and controlled through a proxy (ZScaler).

More egregious spying does frustrate me, because it breaks down trust (e.g. my mum reading my emails, or ex-girlfriend lying about having read my emails despite web history proving otherwise).

It does cause a chilling effect, especially when discipline is involved (punishment at a volunteer group for a humorous social media post means I don't post much online any more). I can't install a local web server on the company PC, and didn't even get admin privileges by default. Therefore my creativity has shifted towards hardware, because it's less restrictive.

These policies are not new, they're supported by management/HR/ICT who (perhaps correctly) assume that most people don't know what they're doing, and try to keep people "safe". There are causes worth fighting for, but privacy on other peoples' computers is a privilege that I've given up hope about changing.
This doesn’t make any scientific sense. Study after study has shown that protein and complex carbs are what reduces feelings of hunger, not vegetables.

This makes sense when you consider most green vegetables like broccoli are 90% water. A meat like chicken, after cooking is only about 60% water.

So if you eat 400g of broccoli vs 400g of chicken, the one that will make you feel more full is obviously the protein.

What’s more likely, is due to marketing we’ve associated anything that is green in color with being “real, nutritious food” and have convinced ourselves that is what makes us feel full.

It’s like people who claim they “feel better” after eating a salad. The average iceberg lettuce has near zero nutritional value and is 96%+ water.

The only way you’d feel better after eating one is if you were dehydrated.

--
*edit - people seem to be misunderstanding. I'm not saying fast food is healthy. I'm simply refuting the idea that green vegetables are the key to feeling full. If you wanted to feel satiated, green vegetables would be one of the most inefficient ways to do so--due to their 90%+ water content.

Where Arguments Come From
It appears the FDA breaks the label down into “mandatory” and “voluntary” categories based on the association of certain nutrients with specific diseases. From your list, vitamin K and magnesium are both voluntary and zinc isn’t included on the standardized label. I assume it’s a business decision by the manufacturer to not include them.

They insist on this because doing so makes it harder for people who only want the particular style of cheese and don't care where it's made to find any product other than the one that's been given an EU monopoly. For example, for a while Parmesan was a generic name for the style of cheese and Parmigiano-Reggiano was the PDO that people who deeply cared about the origins of their cheese could look for. This wasn't enough for Italian cheese producers, though, so they sued in court to get their PDO extended to Parmesan too. Now the generic version has to be sold as "Italian style hard cheese" and similarly vague, confusing names.
That is a different notion of typing. The type systems you are referring to (which is how they are commonly understood) classify data according to the operations they support. In this post, types classify privacy. These two notions are orthogonal and can be combined if needed. There are many many more notions of typing out there achieving wildly different goals.
I did some work for you. Here's the direct quote from the unreacted Mueller report:

"The Office determined that it did not have admissible evidence that was probably sufficient to obtain and sustain a Section 1030 conspiracy conviction of WikiLeaks, Assange, or
Stone."

"With respect to Wikileaks and Assange, this Office determined the admissible evidence to be insufficient on both the agreement and knowledge prongs."

They literally redacted (and way later un-redacted) the part that recognized that they had zero evidence. Pathetic beyond any conceivable reality, I know, but there it is. Page 177. Good luck with your theories.

I sense that some people may be taking my comments as if they are expressing a perspective on the topic of Cuba. I'm not. My comments are strictly limited to internet forum dynamics, since that's what it's my job to deal with.

I assure you I'm not thinking from "the US perspective on things", but very much internationally. I believe this is a case of people in different parts of the world not understanding each other, and underestimating how differently the same statement can land elsewhere. (I wrote about that here, if anyone's interested: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23308098.) Of course it's easy to take the position, "The fault lies with the others; my perspective is the valid one," but the problem with that is that it's a recipe for flamewar at scale. That isn't in any of our interests because it destroys the capacity of this place to remain interesting.

People don't need to change their views in order to take this into account, but they do need to adjust to the presence of other people. Across the kind of differences that we're dealing with in a large international community like this, that is not easy.

I was also wondering whether tokenizer rules deserve some flak for making it harder to build identifiers and operators? Why is it more important (in C-like languages) for programmers to write without spaces, than to be able to call a variable ready? or define a +++ operator?

The question of "why not USB" is relevant regardless of what happened. Having sensitive printed documents traveling about like that isn't very secure.

But I'm half joking about it being a dead drop. (Only half because the UK has been very deeply penetrated by foreign intel operations before)

One explanation for USB vs. printouts, I guess it would depend on the security measures in place. The ability to use USB drives could be disabled in various ways to prevent bulk data removal while printing was still allowed. Or the reports were centrally printed out and distributed to various recipients, so it was never digitally accessible to the person who lost it.
401k is pretax. Usually you can change settings whenever you like though it usually takes a pay cycle or two to take affect. Pay yourself first (invest/save automatically) and budget with the rest. If you have goals like buying a house don’t forget to save for those separately so you don’t have to dip into retirement funds early and get hit with fees and extra taxes.

These are good examples and this might be slightly off topic but I wish that there were more resources on how modern x86 platforms actually work instead of using these legacy interfaces that are either emulated in SMM with IO port trapping or relegated to requiring chipset hacks to keep them working (such as VGA device hacks in the PCI spec or well known chipset legacy IO ports decoding to the LPC bridge).

While it is essentially impossible to truly understand every aspect of todays platforms I think that one can build a lot of intuition about how things work by studying how transaction routing is handled in the platform, e.g. how the uncore and chipset routes TLPs (whether it's raw PCIe or packets essentially wrapped by other interconnect protocols like IF/HyperTransport/DMI/QPI/etc) through the system with various base address registers and decoding windows. This gives way to understanding how modern MSI interrupts and DMA works as well. While I understand that truly going into things like PCI configuration, ACPI, UEFI, chipset interfaces on bus 0, modern booting, DMA and interrupt remapping, DRAM, register locking and security, security processors, power management, various types of runtime firmware, etc is a a many-years-long exercise I think that the core ideas don't need to be spread around all over the place for one to get familiarity with the ideas and patterns that underpin our PCs.

I think that a general conceptual overview on which one can hang more detailed knowledge acquired by reading specs is needed with the amount of complexity that exists today. There are some really good resources that I've collected over the years but there is still something missing. Maybe I or someone else will get around to it some day.

I will once again register my hope that this causes at least a significant portion of windows subscribers to consider non-proprietary alternatives. Linux distros are fundamentally more useful computer systems, open source communities have done dizzying amounts of work to produce mostly-working interop with windows-exclusive software, as well as numerous FOSS alternatives to popular products. I'm not going to lie and say there's no switching cost at all (After all, a multi-billion dollar industry works tirelessly to ensure that it's as high as possible), but some linux distro or other has served as a good daily driver for a myriad of non-technical users across the globe, and technical support is readily available on the internet and in most cities. Good for your wallet, good for your freedom, good for the planet.
It's one of those things we'll probably never have a conclusive answer to and even if we do it'll depend on when you decide to look at the diet to decide what we are 'evolved' to handle. At some times we may have been more meat heavy and others more grain/berry/etc heavy.

It's because the speed of sound (in any material) is much slower than the speed of light (even in high dk materials). To make a selective and low loss filter you want to use resonators which have dimensions which are a large fraction of a wavelength (i.e. a quarter wave). When the wave speed is slower, a wavelength is compressed into less space ( cycles per second / meters per second ) which is what enables the miniaturization.

I believe the acoustic loss in many of these materials is also lower than the dielectric loss in most materials, which also improves filter q and achievable selectivity.

I make that argument, but I would never say "It's all perfectly harmless." The point is that the technique used to produce an organism isn't its self harmful. The question is whether the organism is harmful. Resistance to disease is good. Lower nutrient density is bad. It really doesn't matter whether we got here by selective breeding or modifying genes directly.
This is the implicit deal Microsoft has with the hardware manufacturers.

The fundamental problem is that once your break/compartmentalize into layers it's harder apply global optimizations at local layers. You are trading off ease of implementation and compositionality for performance. You have to bubble up optimizations up the stack.

This is partly why QUIC is based on UDP instead TCP. You don't have all the information needed at the TCP layer to do the kind of optimizations that QUIC does.
Isn't this something that, to a degree, might be mitigated by rate limiting journald has?

IMO Lennart is right in that collection should be optimized to a point where it is (almost) never the bottleneck. I, personally, would put a filtering program between the chatty application and journald.

Hey, Onivim contributor here.

I assume by FOMO you mean the increased license price as time goes on, but as far as I understand (that decision was made before me), the idea is that the product becomes more valuable over time as a result of more features being added. You can still buy a one time license as of right now.

As far as abandonment is concerned, I can let you know that hasn’t been discussed. Bryan recently went on his first vacation since working on Oni, but work has resumed since he returned.

I did clearly state that it was an anecdote, with a sample size of one, myself.

Also I think you're being extremely reductionist here. I'm not claiming that I never felt the sensation of fullness in my stomach. Of course I did. Maybe I should rephrase, that I constantly felt like I was craving food even though my stomach was full.

Moreover, to suggest that our brains somehow only understand macronutrients when it comes to regulating our sense of hunger, is ridiculous. You really think that people feeling better after eating broccoli is because they have been brainwashed by the marketing of the vegetable-industrial complex? is it really that outlandish to hypothesize that eating nutritious food makes you feel better?

Of course it would be fallacious to generalize my experience to other people, if only because I myself hardly understand what was going on. But it would be equally fallacious, not to mention arrogant, to dismiss that such an effect might exist, on the grounds that we did some controlled studies and found that hungry people feel more satisfied after eating something substatial.
Well, you're sure to get something with an inactivated viral particle. But you're not sure to get a usefully efficient protection from exposure to it.

The problem with inactivated viral particles is the inactivation process, neccessarily, breaks the proteins and cause them to be liable to take up non-realistic shapes. When your immune system trains on the non-realistic shape the antibodies don't neutralize as well. See the sinovac inactivated sars-cov-2 vaccine for an example of this type of vaccine not working out (ie, <50% efficient).

Meh. Any one of those (cept maybe strongarm) by themselves isn't remarkable. Together, it's reasonable to wonder about anti-capitalism (exploit the poor?) undertones, if you're senstive to that kind of thing. Calling that reaction a "knee-jerk sensationalist review" seems over-the-top to me.
Many traditional cheese is made in caves. Each cave has different temperature, humidity and with a unique microbiota that is exclusive and relatively stable. This is often the bottleneck in production. You can't made more cheese than the space available in caves.

You’re essentially buying a token that’s pegged to the price of a stock. You don’t have the same benefits as the actual stockholder, but you do get exposure to the price appreciation.

I get it that its not the same thing, but if your intention is to profit from stockmarket speculation (like many investors), its a workaround, especially if your local market doesn’t have any brokerages that allow access to US equities to retail investors. Even in India, retail couldn’t easily buy US equities until two years ago.

Imagine the situation for someone in a poor African country. There are no local brokerages that allow them to access US markets. They are effectively forced to invest in poorly regulated, low value local companies through heavily manipulated local stock markets. For such people, being able to buy some ETH and buy a liquid, synthetic version of AAPL is a gamechanger
Fiber is certainly important, but try eating a diet of only broccoli one day vs a diet of only chicken the next.

You’ll likely feel normal on the chicken day. On the broccoli day you’ll feel like you’re fasting (because on a calorie basis, you literally will be unless you eat 5-7X as much broccoli as you do chicken).
