I was actually under the impression that what Pinterest does was against the ToS of Google. I can't find the link or reference, but I believe it was along the lines of 'You can't post images just to farm user account creation on your services' which is exactly what Pinterest does.

I would love if we could do away with these sites and those websites that insist I use their 'app' to view simple text data.
Uh Fossil Fuels powered the Industrial Revolution and literally created the modern economy.

It's true that being popular doesn't necessarily make something good. But it's also true that having some flaws discovered later doesn't make something that revolutionized the world and massively uplifted the standard of living of basically everyone in it bad.
Cue meeting. We have to trie to do better.

Watch out for a heap of downvotes.
> Again, you're welcome to lay out your model of how the democrats are responsible.

Simple, prior to the ACA I was able to cover my health expenses out of pocket. I’m healthy and literally went to the doctor 3 times in a decade. After being forced by the ACA to buy unneeded and unwanted health insurance, I ended up paying >10k /year for literally nothing.

I’ve since paid so much in health insurance that I could have covered my own cancer treatments, out of pocket. I have received nothing for that $100,000+ dollars.

Add to that the “marketplace” with limited time windows, limited competition, the inability to get insurance from another location…

These were all Democrat initiatives that I lived through.

Then, twice the Democratic Party fought tooth and nail to kill M4A. Biden literally said he would never implement it. I’m no fan of the GOP, but when it comes to healthcare costs, no one is worse than the Dems.
And then something else will replace it. They'll digg themselves their own grave.
Here in the UK we've only just started building the HS2 railway fon London up to Birmingham, bifurcating into two lines beyond towards Manchester and Leeds by the 2030s. These trains will run at 250mph. A far cry from the trains I used to take on the intercity routes years ago that only maxed out at 125mph or 140mph.
Any source for your statement?
Good on you for sticking to your principles. In my opinion the left and and the right doesn't mean much outside of French politics over the 18th and 19th century. A lot of what was considered left wing is now right wing and vice versa. Now it's more about tribes than principles.
I don’t think so.

At some Intel Jones Farm lab entrances where chip design was taking place back in 1997, there was buzz-in, camera over entrance door and badge check.

That was on top of entry and exit bag search and badge check.

Tech is more mobile and the stakes are much higher at Apple due to the speed of information transfer and action.

So, nothing to see here.

This site is just mad Apple is clamping down on their sources to create content and build advertising around.
I raced that course years ago, having done a track day on a motorcycle in the past, and even on a bicycle The Corkscrew is surprisingly tight. Not anything like doing it on/in a motorized vehicle, but more effort than I thought it would be. Mainly because that hill can pile on some serious speed. Sadly, I don't think I have the Garmin file from that race and can't look up exactly how fast I'd go down that hill.
Average world electricity consumption is about 3 TW or 3000 average sized 1 GW nuclear power plants.

One could build a hundred factories building 200 MW modular reactors, one per day each, meaning the problem is solved in... 150 days.

It is indeed a large scale problem.

One can still look at projects like the 20,000 B-24 Liberator bombers produced in USA during the second world war. That is a staggering achievement.

> I do think they're catering his support, which is what matters. Clearly he has power in the republican establishment, enough that all these powerful people you mention can't get rid of him.

Because they want his endorsement to be voted into power.

Look, if the GOP voters get their way and remove every so-called 'RINO', and install Trump supporters, I will agree that Trump has become establishment. But until then, it's obvious he wasn't. When he had both branches of government with Paul Ryan as speaker, he still couldn't get his agenda through. Both the GOP house and the dem house stopped his agenda in various different ways.

Consider the border wall. This is incredibly popular amongst his base. The same base that voted Paul Ryan and his ilk into the house. And did they continue this agenda? No. They actively prevented it. Trump was -- his entire time in office -- a lone ranger. I don't see how this is even controversial.

Contrast this with Bush, who did have periods of GOP dominance, in which he got everything he wanted pushed through (his wars...). Or look at Obama with Obamacare and the dem house.
I thought it was pretty well established that the Santa Clara story was one of a rogue sheriff shaking down Apple for some free iPads. In return apple would get their security staff approvals greenlit.
Oil is nothing like "basically free," and many renewable energy technologies are successfully competing with coal and even natural gas, in an environment where fossil fuels are more heavily subsidized than renewable energy technologies.

You can be as cynical as you want, but that won't change the fact that the transition to renewable energy is already more than a decade in progress and accelerating.
Because engineers are fantastic at figuring out how to devise a procedural plan that will work and get the critical amount of buyin. And they rock at figuring out how to pay for it.

Look, engineers are tools (and don't get mad SEs, you aren't really engineers in the first place so this hardly applies to you). They are not leaders as a class, and shouldn't be running for office.
I think in 18 years exactly one piece of software I wished to keep using has died an untimely death and it was impractical to keep using it.
> Videos which point out that the conspiracy videos are garbage have the potential to adversely impact their astronomical view counts and by proxy their profitability.

How much overlap do you think there is between those who watch conspiracy videos and those who watch the videos that debunk them? I'd guess it's really small, probably <5% and possibly <1%—depending on how much Youtube's algorithm recommends the latter to the former. Actually, if they wanted to maximize view counts, they could tweak the algorithm and keep both videos, thus both keeping the gullible audience and driving outrage views from the skeptical audience.
I used to be able to see photos that friends and family publish to Instagram, but then one day I was inexplicably cut off—no more access via open standard protocols.

I’m sad about that.

The Future of Webdev. It Will Blow Your Mind

Some of the most annoying to me:

Twitch trying to discourage the use of the embedded player/non official players (like VLC) by replacing the content by a fullscreen purple picture asking you to watch on twitch.tv.

Reddit trying to force mobile user to use the reddit app as soon as the content is marked NSFW.

Instagram forcing me to login to view pictures.

Twitter asking me to see who someone is following.
>What's your proof that Muslims in the US are resisting integration?

The San Bernardino, Orlando, and Boston Marathon attacks immediately comes to mind, among others. (I'm not sure what's worse about the San Bernardino attack, that a woman was involved or that her husband was American-born.)

But the US is still better off than Western Europe. In Britain, you have three groups from the Indian subcontinent:

* Indian Hindus

* Indian Sikhs

* Indian and Pakistani Muslims

Sikhs and Hindus have been very successful; they are more likely than the average to be part of the British middle class (<http://www.theguardian.com/money/2010/dec/14/middle-britain-...>). Muslims are, by contrast, worse than average in every single social measure despite being, racially speaking, indistinguishable from the other two groups to any outsider (since none knows, or cares, about the myriad of caste differences); they are all "Asians" in Britain.

Beyond the obvious big French attacks (whether Nice truck, Bataclan, or Charlie Hebdo), the Islam-terrorism connection (<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_and_terrorism>) is quite firm. According to a Muslim MP, twice as many British Muslims joined ISIS as the British armed forces (<https://www.newsweek.com/twice-many-british-muslims-fighting...>), despite the much lower pay and much greater difficulty of traveling to and enlisting.

The list of Islamic terrorist attacks (<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Islamist_terrorist_att...>) is so long that one's eyes and mind become numb after a while. One thrilling 12-day period in July 2016 had four Islamist attacks in Western Europe (Nice truck attack, Germany train attack, Germany suicide bombing, France priest attack)! 2017 saw the *third* London incident involving civilians attacked on a bridge!

And before you say "they're not real Muslims", as The Atlantic explained in detail (<http://www.theatlantic.com/features/archive/2015/02/what-isi...>), ISIS was and is ISIS because its members and leaders are sincere in their fundamentalist Islamic beliefs. They are telling the truth when they call themselves devout Muslims.
These are the primary reasons I moved off Windows and onto a combination of macOS and *nix. Plus, macbooks have native Thunderbolt 3 support, which is essential for near-zero latency audio production.
What absolute nonsense. It doesn't matter which "async image standard" you use, you're fundamentally limited by my internet connection. I agree completely with GP, I would rather open a page in the background, give it some time to load all of the images and then browse it. Lazy loading is a pain.

Your test case is totally meaningless, the images are under 3kb. Full (non-lazy) image loading is far more important on websites with lots of large images.
I agree with you on the linked article ^_^ but it does at least do a good job of showing how the concerns of state still exist in the absence of mutable data.
Pinterest, Instagram, TikTok. Just... No. Funny enough, I was a big Imgur user until one day I somehow realized I'm wasting my life on the dumbest shit in the dumbest format possible.

Reddit on the other hand, is trying hard to push me away and I thank them for it, but a lot of info you can only find there. Like real measurements of graphics cards and just real information from real people.

Kind of sad, but Reddit has attracted all the people who used to frequent niche forms in one place.
Is it in a "reasonable" amount? As in, is the concentration comparable?
I ask the same question because I haven't yet seen a better alternative that was given. If you have one, please show it, it would be very interesting to me. Otherwise, it sounds like you may not have that much experience with these tools, which is understandable. I can help find solutions, if you're interested.

>Does that mean that I can DoS these machines simply by connecting to all the open ports, thus starting up the heavy daemons in the constrained environment?

I'm not sure I'm understanding this question? A lot of machines are not open to the public internet, so this probably doesn't apply there. You can also use some cgroup managing tool (like systemd) to restrict memory usage to the process and configure the OOM killer behavior, so that would also prevent DoS attacks.

> Yes, actually, netstat will show you if you have an HTTPS server running. It will show you if you have an SSH server running.

Actually no, this is wrong, at least for me when I tried the version of netstat that ships with debian. It only shows if something has the port open -- that thing could be an fd holding service (like inted or systemd or something else), or it could be a load balancer, or it could be another service that is incorrectly configured to use the wrong port, etc. So you're right that this complicates the system but this isn't really systemd's fault, and there is nothing that a service manager can really do about this. The only way to know for sure is to use a different tool that prints information about the owning process -- that way you know for sure if it's sshd or something else. Maybe you have a version of netstat that shows this information? If so, then it's not a problem at all, just simply check that column before you continue with your trouble shooting.

>Will it tell you if you're actually running SSH on port 443? No, of course not.

Well now you got me confused, this seems to be directly conflicting with when you said this: "It will show you if you have an SSH server running"
It’s clear from your responses that you seriously can’t handle logical disagreements to your point on online forums and choose to get offended instead.

The replying comment is right, it’s irrational & you’re filled with hubris to think that you could replicate world wide supply chains in your back yard. In no universe does growing yeast == replicating a global supply chain.
There are other ways of inducing reform than boycotting the company. Maybe we can pressure our politicians for better workers rights rather than worse like we've gotten over the last 4 decades.
One way of reading this comment is that you concur that there's a problem.
I’m on iOS so I don’t think that’s supposed to happen. Definitely wouldn’t be the first time Android gets the shaft in terms of app quality from large companies. Looking at you Google whose iOS apps are better than their Android apps for some reason.
This article is not about converting land from meat to not-meat. It's about converting from beef to chicken.

No one doubts that chicken is more efficient than beef. I have not argued that beef is the best animal.
Facebook was doing this for a while on business pages, but it looks like they've backed out of it now. Around 2 years ago you were only permitted to see content 'above the fold'. Scroll down to the second page of content and you saw an undismissable modal covering the entire page. Happily(!) you now have the option to dismiss the modal and continue scrolling, but the modal is shown for every new business page you visit.
I mean, even 15 years ago the majority of US courses were 'guerrilla' courses. Basically, metal poles arranged in a forest or some other piece of marginal land and likely illegal or questionable in regards to its installation. People would just set out some 'tone' poles out in the woods or where ever and make up some other spots as 't-pads'. Eventually some one brings out some carpet and a 't-pad' becomes more legit. Eventually a community group forms around clearing the brush and debris from the course. Maybe they team up with the local parks and rec division and get some help. A few years later the disc golf course is a prime asset to the community and it becomes official.

Redwood Curtain, Peregrine Point, hell even world famous DeLaveaga all started out this way. A close friend of mine used to say "If a course didn't start out as a garbage dump, its probably not worth playing"
Additionally, the experience of using reddit is very different with an account versus without. The same argument cannot be made for Windows 10.
If you think about Facebook the consumer platform, it has a high market share, but there are a lot of competitors in the space. Social content site competitors include TikTok, YouTube, and Reddit. Messaging app competitors include iMessage and even SMS.

Facebook the business (selling ads) is a large business but the largest advertiser is Google, so they aren't even the leader.

That's a good point.

The difference with a password reset email though is that it unlocks all of the user's existing data - posts, images, contacts, whatever.

For our invite emails, there is no user data yet, since we are inviting them to join as a new user (in our system - HR SaaS - they are actually a candidate). So there is no exposure in having invite links that work for a week or longer.

In some other use cases, yes a new user will see some sensitive data, e.g. their teammates contact details. In that situation there is a case for very short-lived invite links (just as for password resets).

But still we could do so much better than making them enter the email address again.

I think this is an underdeveloped area of usability in auth systems (that I'm familiar with anyway).
GMT is not (officially) used anymore. UT1 is based on the Earth's rotation within the ICRF (almost J2000) reference frame based on the positions of distant quasars. UT1 is not a steady time frame, e.g. if you measure UT1 at two times one second apart, it probably will differ by something other than one second. This is due to the fact that the Earth's rotation rate is constantly changing.

UTC is what people normally mean when they refer to GMT or Universal Time. It has a steady definition for a second based on TAI, and is adjusted by adding leap seconds to keep it within .9 seconds of UT1.

Every day the International Earth Rotation Service publishes values for UT1-UTC based on actual observations as well as other Earth Orientation Parameters. They are also responsible for determining and announcing in advance of when a leap second will be added.

"Tradition", I think, understates things a bit.

In any region, there are going to be specific factors of soil, climate, infrastructure, etc. that all affect how you would build homes. Transporting materials is expensive, so the availability of local materials is also a factor, though less of a factor than it used to be.

Builders and skilled tradesman in any region are going to have knowledge and practical experience with these local factors, and with the techniques and materials that address those factors. And to some degree, you're better off with the type of house that they're really good at building than the type of house that they're less experienced with.

If you're comparing the US and EU though, I think you also need to account for culture and language barriers. Construction techniques and materials across the US are more similar because builders and tradesmen from Oregon, Arizona, Texas, and Florida can all communicate more easily than builders and tradesman from across Europe.

Changes I would have made in the early days:

- 48-bit static IP addresses. 70 trillion should be enough. 128 bits was overkill.

- Nodes, not interfaces, have IP addresses, so you can use multiple paths.

- IPSEC available but initially optional.

- Explicit congestion notification, so packet loss and congestion loss can be distinguished.

- Everything on the wire is little-endian, byte oriented, and twos complement.

- You can validate a source IP address by pinging it with a random number. If you don't get a valid reply, the IP address is fake. Routers do this the first time they hear from a new address, as a form of egress filtering. This contains DDOS attacks.

- Routers will accept a "shut up" request. If A wants to block B, it sends to a router on the path, the router pings A to validate the source, and then blocks traffic from B to A for a few minutes. This also contains DDOS attacks. Routers can forward "shut up" requests to the next router in the path, for further containment.

- Fair queuing at choke points where bandwidth out is much less than bandwidth in.

- Explicit quality of service. At a higher quality of service, your packets get through faster, but you can't send as many per unit time.

- No delayed ACKs in TCP.

- Fast connection reuse in TCP.

- Mail is not forwarded. Mail is done with an end to end connection. Mail to offline nodes may be resent later, but the sender handles that. Mail, instant messaging, and notifications are the same thing. Spam is still possible but hard to anonymize. If you want your mail buffered, use an IMAP server at the receive end.

- One to many messaging uses a combination of RSS and notifications.

- Something like Gopher should be available early. The Web would not have fit in early machines. but Gopher would.

I might have read somewhere that the original design of HTTP allowed for transactions to occur. This free point is a big one. Once Apple set the price of 0.99 for an app it really dropped the market price for software. It's funny that there is so little different between enterprise software and consumer apps except for a monstrous difference in price point. Funny thing is, consumer apps are sometimes better.
It's fairly common to deploy a proxy contract, which allows for a sort of updating. Basically you deploy a new contract and have the proxy point to that new contract instead of the old one. There are definitely some limitations and it's not fully standardized yet. There's a tentative standard here https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/issues/1538 and OpenZeppelin also has their own implementation.

Although neither of these things will actually help if your contract gets exploited before you can push a fix.

> What ever happened to exploring computing through just building small, cool, things?

It totally exists, but back in our day you built the one computer you had and that was that. Now everyone has lots of computers. So maybe you don't make your own laptop but you can absolutely make a "computer" and hack all kinds of fun things.

See: Arduino, Raspberry PI, STM32 et al., Teensy, BeagleBone, TinyFPGA, etc. etc. etc.

Honestly, I am kinda jealous. You can buy more random electronics than I could've dreamed of as a kid with paper route money (do kids even still do that?). Test equipment too.
