Well, for more information, you can go ot https://www.p65warnings.ca.gov

The warnings are required by a 1986 statewide proposition, numbered 65, for chemicals posing chancer, birth defect, or other reproductive harm, and though they're obligatory only if the risk is greater than 1:100,000 over a 70 year lifespan, many companies feel it's safer to include the warnings regardless to avoid nondisclusure actions.

Hacker News is smaller, and has much tighter moderation. The conversation tends to stay civilised. I can't remember a negative interaction here. On reddit, they're the norm.

I'm currently playing with laptops of various vintage, mostly 386/486/P1 era. I do minimal hardware modifications (e.g. replace broken floppy drives with Gotek and hard disks with CF cards), and mostly software "challenges" (e.g. port Doom to Xenix, triple-boot Win95, Dos and SCO Unix on an LBA formatted disk,. .. ). In general, I find less common/obscure OSes interesting, more than the hardware per se.

Laptops can be annoying due to the nonstandard parts and limited expansion capabilities (save for PCMCIA cards), but they are very compact and self-contained and I'm currently living in a small house.
>I’m not sure how to feel about this warning notice?

Is that because these warnings are so ubiquitous they've lost all meaning?
This is a really interesting move, and certainly one I've never heard of. As a founder/CTO it's something I'd love to do one day. Are there any other examples of this occurring?
What do you think happens when soil is loosened to mix in fertilizer, and a large amount of rain / wind happens?

There's 1000s of things people could potentially get blackmailed for by bad actors. Not just sexual behavior. Brushing that aside like it's a non-issue show lack of maturity.
F-Droid is without spammy, ad-filled low quality garbage - what makes much easier to find usable apps.

And open source makes quite harder to monetize in user-hostile way - and F-Droid actually blocks apps that are user hostile and allowed on Google store.
Yes they will kick the victim out. Either formally or they will make it super uncomfortable for victim so she leaves.
Well, rather they shouldn't pick a profession dedicated to not doing that thing. Even if they were straight, I believe relationships wouldn't be allowed for them.
Title IX does not apply to schools that do not receive federal funding. And these schools have tons of double standards in their rules anyway.
Are you suggesting that Audacity is something that needs a lot of auto-updating? It's not like an OS. Updating it can wait.
I'm not super familiar with power systems, but as far as I've seen in Australia, higher voltage ABC mostly only comes in 11 or 22kV (distribution), not 33kV and up which this seems to be talking about (feeder/transmission).

You do seem to be able to buy 33kV ABC from China but not sure if it would meet Australian Standards.

Looking at Wikipedia's page on ABC though, it says that even older 11/22kV ABC is being replaced to underground in Australia because the insulation can degrade and it can cause fires too.

That's not correct. The actual quote was:

They did not forbid it.

> That's how tar works. Just the other day I was making a backup and streamed 5gb of data as a tar archive, opening it in the archiver took a lot of time.

That's because tar is the tape archiver, specifically written for a medium whose very nature is linear reading/writing and where skipping around was highly impractical or even impossible.
Simply put, I don't trust them. Not any more. This issue was handled atrociously and the next computer I'm installing Audacity on will either have a pre-Muse version or a fork on there.
How fun, a life spent trying to stand out to other people in the hopes of getting hired for the prized job.
Great to know, an editor is much easier than a whiteboard

I'd much prefer it rather than scribbling in a whiteboard with an eraser that doesn't work and trying to put together the solution

Whiteboard does work for higher level discussions, not for anything resembling code

Lest they ask you to whiteboard FizzBuzz, that makes me want to leave the interview immediately.
Somehow this is the first I’m hearing of this, and yet I have never hit buy so quick.

Even if, heaven forbid, this company is no longer around in five years when I need new parts, just the ability to upgrade RAM, SSD, etc is so valuable.

You could be leaking enough data about the hash or acoustic fingerprint of files users are editing which could be correlated with enough unique information to identify a user.

On the positive side you could identify the user who created ransom_message.mp3 in the exceedingly unlikely case this scenario comes to pass. More realistically you could identify the creator of unpopular_religious_message005.mp3 or how about helping a repressive regime locate any and all creators of any of 385 banned religious or political ideas?
Why do you view that as the solution instead of Employers raising the wages they are offering until they get enough workers?

Why must the answer be to force people into desperation such that they have to take crappy jobs with low pay and no benefits?

I say this unironically: you may enjoy Vim?

I enjoy Vim. It is opinionated (or its defaults are), and when you first encounter it, it makes you ask why anyone would design something this way ... but then all of a sudden you grok it and you realise that you want everything to be like this.
Sure, but with Zip, you can’t reliably figure out where the chunks start and stop. In PNG, you can easily enumerate the chunks and skip over any chunks your program does not parse.

Why was this down-voted? It is a good question. I thought exactly the same myself. And the reply from @setr is helpful. (Hat tip) I never thought about the impact of dump/restore!
In England at least you could opt out for free on landlines in the 90s.

When mobile phones started up (back in the ten digit days) you could call a cellular provider and query a number if you had a name. The STD (yes, yes, laugh at the STI joke) prefix used to signal the network the user was on so you could ask Orange for "John Smith" if the number started 0973.

This was also free to opt out of.

> FUD

https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/tcpa-faq.html

You think all those FIDO members don't care about DRM. That is beyond naive in my opinion. Security is a trust problem, so much should be clear before even starting to discuss it.

Also FUD is employed by presenting advantages of TPM as it often invokes ransomware.

Nice, but probably 99% of ransomware is just executed in user space and starts encrypting typical network drives in typical corporations. Some are more sophisticated, but I haven't seen any bios attacks recently. And why would they? Ransomware is quite profitable.
I bought the original iDOS, but it no longer runs and you have to buy iDOS 2.

Does this mean that the whiteboard coding interviews are flawed, or that guys like us, who has made a ton of more or less great projects are flawed? Why would a company rather have a guy that can solve binary search in five seconds, than one that has showed continuous progress with several finished projects over the years? Do they think accomplished guys somehow are a liability? Or is it that they want a blank sheet imp that they can mould wholly in their own image? Is real creativity and output really of no value to these guys?
I see a similar warning on balsamic vinegar, and I've seen it at a Starbucks for coffee.
It's common to include that in privacy policies and it's more of a FYI. This will apply whether they include it in the policy or not.
> One counterpoint that I’ve come across during my own review of the literature, is the idea that imperfect vaccines can cause selective pressure which enhances the fitness of highly virulent pathogens.

This is what happened with "Marek's disease", a virus-caused disease in chickens. The vaccine was "leaky" and ended up selecting for a more deadly form, such that now all chickens worldwide have to be vaccinated for it or they'll die if they get infected - which didn't used to be the case.

let's bring back the original coca-cola, it's crazy to think that some of our grandparents and great grandparents use to drink coke as a teenage/child. but yes, prohibition has caused more pain and suffering in the world than any war combined. it's a shame how much money we waste on locking up people who already feel beaten down by life, a lot of drug addicts are people trying to self medicate

How is this any different from needing to use proper hygiene when downloading stuff off the Internet? I am happy to have a more open alternative to the App Store and all the control Apple exerts. Sure it has some drawbacks and gotchas but so what. Also this letter is written in an incredibly hostile and unproductive tone.

A nitpick: Python uses `if` and `else` for trinary syntax:

This device is seriously the answer to all my laptop problems. I really like the form factor of the XPS 13, but now I'm stuck with the complete inability to upgrade RAM. In what universe is that normal? Then I accidentally nuked the USB-C ports on the left side when it got wet, and now I'm left with a single port for everything, including charging. What!? Why? I tore the entire thing apart and there's just no way to replace anything besides the SSD drive, everything else is soldered on. I'm in Batch 1 and can't wait to get my full purchase email. I seriously see this as an investment. I'll pay full price for a laptop once more, and then every other incident like this will just be parts and labor to get things back to square one.
This is incidentally before their "Head of Strategy" tried to shut down the equivalent of youtube-dl for sheet music by threatening to work with the Chinese government to get at a Chinese dissident living abroad potentially facing death or imprisonment at home.
Could you please share the exact screen measurements? I purchased one but strongly prefer matte screens so I’ll be trying to look for a matte screen protector that fits.
Autonomy always seemed to sail pretty closed to the wind. Around 2000 they came to me to see if I would buy their semantic doc indexing thing for a dotcom I was IT director of. I said it was quite expensive and we didn't need it. They then came back with a proposal where we would buy some expensive HP SAN disk drives (that we also didn't need), they would throw the text index thing in "for free" and they claimed it would be worth our while because we would be able to write off the depreciation on the shitty disk drives against tax. I said it seemed really sketchy and I didn't want the maintenance burden of an additional SAN solution to look after.
I was thinking of all of the lifestyle factors that might make one susceptible to tooth loss for >10 years prior to the study (this was a selection criteria for the participants): lack of education, nutrition, medical care, etc. The paper never controls for why these people lost their teeth.

(To be fair to the researchers of this paper, they do discuss some of this, but they focus on a causal relationship between tooth loss and the other factors. They never really consider that the relationship between these factors and tooth loss could be reversed.)
A coding session usually implies something unrelated to algorithms.
Whiteboarding is usually much more than "jotting down an algorithm".
Price for the Pro version? I'd buy so long as it comes with Ubuntu/Debian.
Cupcakes are agile, what about you
For quite a while now, especially in IT, we all talk about agile. No startup or modern tech enterprise ever says they do anything close to the waterfall approach. Fancy buzzwords and fancy titles are being shared, but how close to that are we?
It didn't seem to be for the lack of French missionaries. But for some reason it didn't stick as well. Maybe there was more buy-in from the civil authorities on the Spanish side, thanks to people like Bartolomé de las Casas.
Hobby level “echo-chambers” have never been a problem, eg. kitting will likely have a balanced political view. Problematic groups are the ones that have nothing else but a very specific ideology as a common point, eg. r/conservative or the like (as well as the left-leaning counterparts) — occasionally viewing them is not bad imo, if one spends sufficient time in other places as well. The problem is when somebody wants to spend all of their time there, shutting off any alternative source of information.
I find this a bit of an odd example, but maybe I am completely preoccupied by translations of technical texts, where clarity is important and staying exact at the same time. I've hardly come across words that were so foreign and weird that you'd be thinking very long if the "normal translation" was ok. This poem especially seems to be an exercise in crypto linguistics, most of the time trying to figure out the original meaning first, and then finding some
fitting translation, with a task that seems more like writing a poem on your own and less "translation". But as I said, maybe it's me thinking about howtos and manuals.

Disclaimer: I have no professional experience as a translator, just a software developer who writes READMEs and technical documents in German (native) and English and has also translated stuff in the past.
As someone who is unfamiliar with f-droid - how does it work? So I need to somehow crack my phone to use it? Would installing it void a Samsung warranty or prevent me from access to my carrier’s network or from receiving OS updates?
Nix has first-class support for URLs. Like, there are strings ("https://example.org") and URLS (https://example.org). And if URL is not valid, it will be parser error.

However, this "feature" turned out to be misfeature and may be removed in future.

Copyright, like so much else in our lives, is a human construct. There's no law of nature saying it must exist, or that if it exists, it must exist as it does.

There are numerous options:

- De minimis use under fair use.

- Mechanical copyright clearances and royalties.

- Standing arrangements between news organisations and major social media outlets.

- Creative Commons or other licensing for reuse / redistribution. In this case, works which are CC / liberally licenced would see use over those which are not.

- Those not wishing their works to be reused could explicitly note this, though of course under current copyright doctrine, that is the default.

- Licensing agencies similar to ASCAP or Harry Fox for clearing online media requests. (There are several of these now.)

Overall, though, copyright as it stands gets in the way of making information available. The Constitutional intent in the US is concerened with the lack of motive to create content. That manifestly seems not to be the problem at present. Constructing an arbitrary lottery system for lucky shutterbugs / videographers seems to have its own share of issues.

There's also the elephant in the room that embedded contact creates tracking opportunities for the originating sites and their advertising/surveillance partners. Killing that niche would be a net social good.
Just to stir this mess even more, "MuseCY SM Ltd., a Cyprus company with an address at Spyrou Kyprianou, 84, 4004, Limassol, Cyprus"

Is that tax haven?
Right, I don't see how there's anything but innuendo to the idea of criminal liability here. I don't think the statement we're talking about is in any way defensible.
Why such hostility towards accepting crypto as a payment option? I'm sure you know there are payment processors that convert the crypto to cash in the bank with minimal effort.

Your company's statement that you won't accept crypto because it is "bad for environment" seems more political than operational/technical.
I posted this as I got an 'Invite' email stating that another developer was inviting me to the platform. What's interesting is that the site isn't invite only, which brings me to wonder if the invite emails are bogus, and all they are doing is leveraging info from the LinkedIn data leak to find users?
Great! It could also have some red/green/yellow/blue shortcut buttons at the bottom.
That's a very interesting nuance. What does "please do not" mean in this context, and could its intended effect be?
I’ve seen them push moderate size rocks off bin lids in order to get in. I’ve seen them remove a broom handle that was pushed through the handles of multiple bins (by pushing the broom handle out first).

And then I’ve seen a group of them get fed by sliding down a tin roof on their claws, making the most hellish noise to get the humans out of bed.

Usually though, they are just ripping bits off cars and mangling the aerials.

They are hilarious and destructive arseholes.

>Do you want their hiring level to be even higher or what?

I just described what I see. It's not about what I want or don't want. Personally I'm mostly indifferent, I'd say.
No. The RIAA can neither invent new crimes nor can they prosecute anyone for a non-made-up crime. We don't generally deport people over tort claims. This is mustache-twirling cartoon bad guy behavior.
Thank you. Good to see some of the parts are recycled components too.
Why would you trust a startup over Stripe? And what is wrong with Stripe to begin with?
Things are getting better. I was aware of them, but jupyter is the 600 pound gorilla in this area.

I wouldn't use observable, as you are tied to their web service, and I've had too many companies close to use such a service for important data. Pluto is promising, but (I believe?) Only supports Julia, which is growing but still not that popular, or known.
I know you’re being sarcastic, but seriously. What’s the problem? It’s an audio recorder.
Off topic but I wonder if one could build a "Covid Canary". A device that can alarm when there is a presence of Covid in the air in an enclosed room. Supposedly there are several companies working on a covid breathalizer.
AS or just artificial stupidity I've heard a couple of times. It's quite mind boggling if you think about how many people had to engineer tensors and train networks for months if not years to create a system capable of so blatant stupidity.
You would not prove yourself wrong. You would change a viewpoint in light of new information.
No, you have done everything right. At least from the point of view of DNS. That you can not use multiple nameservers is a limitation of Cloudflare (limit in the sense of: Cloudflare can only offer their services in the Free and Pro plan if they have full control over all nameservers).
> This view is incredibly harmful. What lives in the soil is important too, small animals, insects, mushrooms...

I want to highlight that it's a relatively recent discovery that almost all plants live in a symbiotic relationship with fungi (Mycorrhiza) in the soil, which I wasn't taught in school.

Plants can also live without, but the existence of Mycorrhiza fungi impacts plant productivity and robustness.

Side projects show only one attribute that is a reason why id hire someone, which is their technical ability. Delivering on time with reasonable quality, working within given constraints, with people from other disciplines are other aspects that are as important as technical capabilities but blogging and side projects cannot convey, therefore side projects wont make you standout imo unless you built a business around it. Id much rather work with people who have another life outside tech than not.
