I guess I'm a cynic at heart since my mind went directly to this being somehow related to harrasment by their peers rather than being depressed about the public not appreciating them.
Am an Oculus owner. Am a real user (check my profile). Am not affiliated with Facebook.

I love my Oculus device (life changing indeed as someone else put it in the thread above) and detest Facebook. Is it that hard to believe other people might be in a similar situation?

Yes there are other memes using common first names and I don't like any of them. Not one bit. Not all of them are equally insulting though.
I think the goal of any sport should more be engagement than entertainment. For entertainment, go to a circus, movie, or theater.

Also, any sport at top level suffers from common people not being able to see what’s happening. That’s unavoidable. For example, at Olympic level, a hurdler having to shorten a pace by a few cm at one hurdle can make a decisive difference. In gymnastics, I doubt any layman can, given a video stream, rank the top competitors the way the jury does (would be an interesting experiment to do)

Also IMO, rules that more reliably let the better team win work against engaging the crowd.

Nothing better for user engagement than that ‘goal’ in the 1966 World Cup final at Wembley.
god I have hundreds of threads and I hate it....
> I'm also confused... who reads blogs but doesn't read the docs?

I’d say lots of people. Most people are searching for a specific solution to a technical problem. If they see a how-to blog that fits their use case in the results, many people will prefer it over the official docs.
You have the freedom to not install it.
Smartphone cameras are nowhere near analog photos, there is just no way to make a good camera so small.
You don't if your User Interfaces are basic. But for web applications theses frameworks with the ability to quickly define your own web components are incredibly useful. It can still be frustrating sometimes, but when the app gets more complex, doing this without a web framework is probably insanity.

BTW, Vue 3.0 uses Typescript, but you can still programm with plain Javascript. That it what I am doing (I may be part of a minority).
The advantage of rootless though, over user namespaces with a rootful Docker daemon is that in rootless all the components run as standard user, so a compromise of the Docker daemon should just allow for escape to a standard user.

Not sure about most distros gating that sysctl. Ubuntu works fine with rootless Docker with no changes and looking at their install instructions, there's only mention of setting that sysctl on debian and arch.
If there were fewer people on Earth, then presumably there would be less deforestation, overfishing, greenhouse emissions, etc. I strongly reject the idea that the Earth can support the current human population at the current levels of consumption and pollution.

Have you tried Vue? It’s very different than React because you can just augment your HTML with what you need, it’s not all or nothing. What’s complex and usually overkill for small projects is the "modern" build tool chain, but you can ignore that and just add the <script src> and be done with it (same with React BTW). You can get familiar with AlpineJS which is kind of a minimalist Vue.
I think it also helps to think about what the consumer of your tools is, and how often the command-line needs to be written.

Is it a tool like Git, that you run over and over again, many times throughout the day?

Or is it something like 'find', where you run it every once in a while, but aren’t used to using it?

Or is it something like 'ld', where you only ever run it from your build system?

Tools like Git it's nice to have options like -p for --patch.

Tools you only use from build scripts—easy enough to only give them long options. You don't need short options, mostly. Same goes for tools that are only written seldom. You won’t remember what the short options mean, for a tool that you run once or twice a month, so you’re just shooting yourself in the foot by using them.
Strange, I'm also from an European country, but can see the site fine
To elaborate a bit on what another commenter said, the Republican party's whole premise is that government is bad, and we should have less of it. Since they are the government, it is easy to obstruct and oppose any attempt to actually help people. Essentially, the worse a job they do running the country, the more compelling their platform becomes. So yes, I really do think some Republicans are worried that the government might do too good of a job.
In my understanding, countries with stronger labor laws mandate an employee representation of some sort past a minimum size (I think it's 50 employees in France for instance)

These are not unions per se, but partly cover the same role (discuss and negotiate on behalf of individual employees) and there is no opting out of that representation.
props for your employer to build a lean bussiness that can sustain paying bank to engineers, and for sharing the profit. This is a reminder for myself not to overlook companies like yours
there is subtle, yet important difference between TV and Netflix ...
Thank you for your thorough post.

There are alternative models, such as biocyclic veganic agriculture, or in the future, foods created through fermentation [1] (this almost require no arable land). I recommend checking them out if you are interested in cycles in nature. Using animal manure, opposed to "plant manure" from nitrogen fixing plants, it also has its downsides because of the high levels of ammonia it kills most of the soil creatures such as worms, and more tilling and maintenance is required (which releases more carbon).

Personally I don't think that using livestock is living with nature, but is its antithesis. Since the earth is (at this moment) bound by the amount of biomass available through photosynthesis there is a limited carrying capacity for biomass. What we have done specifically is reduced the biodiversity by using more and more land mass for livestock and its feed. Of all habitable land, 50% is used for agriculture and 77% of that is used for livestock (while only providing us 18% of calories and 37% of protein) [2]. This has drastically reduced the number of wild animals and biodiversity, which I consider "nature" [3].

Ultimately, using livestock kills living beings (primarily in nature) somewhere else. If you're goals are living closer to nature, and reducing your ecological footprint, and your definition of nature is: "the phenomena of the physical world collectively, including plants, animals, the landscape, and other features and products of the earth, as opposed to humans or human creations.", then living closer to nature would mean rewilding your land and perhaps be a steward of that land. It would be a great means of treating nature and life with more respect :).

Facebook is a negligible part of the US GDP. And Netflix is not value ad? Maybe not for you.

But regardless, China's downfall will be the fact it tries and picks to "winners and losers". It's a semi-planned economy. Many other countries have tried this and I'm not saying that China will collapse or won't continue to be an economic power, but even the mighty power of the CCP won't make consumers buy their products from you if they aren't what consumers want.
There's no import tariff for importing cars in Japan, and regulations aren't special (except Kei cars) but US cars aren't sold well (Except Jeep?). It's just because US cars/brands aren't attractive or not practical in Japan market (or Japan market is not attractive for US makers to invest). German cars are somewhat sold well despite expensive and not more practical (There's no Autobahn, max speed is recently increased 120km/h from 100k in new highway) compared to domestic cars.

Who does? Genuine question. Also how would you rank the top 5 tech companies in terms of shutting down track record? I would have said Yahoo was awful, but they haven’t been part of the big tech crowd in a long time.
The user dashboard looks very simple to follow compared to many I have seen in the past!
I'd be considered 'young' and would think it at least aloof so I don't think its your old-fashionedness.

Not answering your question but, I ran into Plaid recently as Tesla wants you to use it to pay for your car. I said "GTFO" and got a cashier's check

As others have pointed out, Plaid is service that lets people interface with your bank via one API, the Plaid API, Plaid deals with all the various banks. And Plaid mines your account advertising (as it says in their TOS/Privacy policy) and shares that info with whoever they want.

I also found out (and this is old info) that ANYONE can take money from your bank account without your permission. There might be repercussions for them later or maybe the bank has to trust them but I found this out because I signed up for Apple Pay and Apple Pay wants me to pay my bill via ACH.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_clearing_house

What happened is I gave Apple my info (routing number and account number) and without the bank confirming with me that Apple had permission to take some money, Apple sucked money out of my bank account.

That's crazy to me. Those 2 numbers are on every check I've ever written.

I get that someone can charge money to me with my Credit Card info but AFAIK if it's fraud I'm only out max $50. Plus, it's not my money, it's the CCard company's money since it's effectively a loan and the fraud is their problem, not mine.

I'm sure someone with more knowledge can tell me why the ACH system is safe but I find it super scary ATM.
Just use Firefox with Total Cookie Protection (each domain you visit gets an isolated cookie jar) and set the "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" option.

You are now free to carelessly click on and accept any random cookie that comes your way. Just restart once a week or so for Firefox updates and you are a completely new person.
> I think that we should try to strive for a world where good and moral business sense is better rewarded than great business sense.

This stuff gets outcompeted by the free market every time. You don’t have to look far to find failed attempts to plan economies around the morals du jour. The whole point of free market capitalism is it’s game theory - if something worked better anybody would be free to use that better method. Humans have a consensus on what better means, and free markets are structured around that (+ a sane amount of government oversight because humans act dumb at scale.)
Hey. I’ll email you. I probably found about it through HN before. My biggest issue is deciding between Histre and Memex. Need to see how exporting/syncing works on both services too probably.
> My IDE can't highlight that this is wrong because it's not code and is just a string.

WebStorm and its bigger brother IntelliJ IDEA can handle this.
I generally agree, though I personally stopped caring and learned to love my non-Duplex Brother.

We've all been conditioned to believe the bullshit about saving the trees, despite the reality being, paper manufacturing is very efficient and mostly uses its own specially-grown trees these days; plus, a typical office worker in a bank will print more paper a day than you'll use in a year. Point being, you aren't killing the planet by printing one-sided vs. duplex. The use of ink or toner is the same.

So I don't mind anymore. I do occasional manual duplexing for convenience or out of courtesy (e.g. when printing contracts), otherwise I print single-sided, and keep the prints around after they've served their purpose. I have a small stack of one-sided prints which find their second life as source paper for further non-critical prints, or as drawing paper for my daughter.
If you want to set the filesystem as read only in a Docker container you can do that, without needing to set-up multiple users in the container.

In general that's a good piece of hardening advice, you just need to mount an empty volume for any temp files that are needed by the app.

For not running as root, the main benefit (to my view) is that there have been multiple CVEs in container stacks where the issue fully or partially mitigated if the container was running as non UID-0

CVE-2021-30465 was partially mitigated, and CVE-2020-15257 had a requirement of the container running as UID-0.

So whilst it's not a panacea, in general not running containers as root is a good layer of defence.
> but most of the people I follow who engage on this topic are diaspora Jews who very much do not want to become "hated refugees

There are a lot of super progressive Jews out there that are vocal about Zionism needing to end. Sometimes it's ideological and sometimes it's just wanting to fit in within progressive circles and feeling good about oneself. I mean if Israel is a child killing apartheid state who in their right mind would want to be associated with it?
Many of them aren't really comfortable with the idea of being Jewish in general (definitely not in public), and they have a good reason since anti-semtiism is still alive even in the U.S, especially in progressive circles. Also, religion and progressiveness don't generally agree that well. They definitely won't be able to fit in progressive circles and say that Israel has a right to exist, it barely works now. Bernie Sanders is struggling with his Zionism, lots of progressives think he's pretty much a racist.
It's a complicated topic, but we can make a whole discussion about Jewish life in the diaspora and the challenges it brings.
Thanks for the analysis, interesting to read!
What about the lime-burning for cement, does it imply "only" net-carbon neutral as all the captured carbon is released upon cement production? And what about iron smeltering? I suppose most carbon is also released in that process?
It seems blocking/removing Pin 14 or cutting the wire should work [1] So yes, a simple passive HDMI ethernet filter should be possible. You can also buy cables without ethernet, but then you also need do verify it actually isn't present.

I knew ethernet was in the spec, but this is the first time I heard it actually works.

This is unenforceable. Some of the relevant open source projects are being developed by contributors based outside the US who have no possibility of knowing whether the address receiving coins in a transaction is controlled by someone based in the US. It's not even possible within the design of bitcoin and related cryptocurrencies for developers to add such tracking provisions, since the generation of an address is algorithmic and can be done with pen and paper. If indeed the law is as the EFF describes it, it must have been written by someone with zero technical knowledge about cryptocurrency. This is not a viable regulatory approach. The implementation is not cognizable -- and therefore is not enforceable.
UK Citizen here, my parents have been part of the ONS random survey for about 18 months now, every 2 (or so) they have a visit at their doorstep from the ONS who test both of them, they let them know the results via the NHS app and they get £25 of vouchers for each visit.... They have to be honest about who they have been in contact with, where they have been (E.g. supermarket) and if they wore a mask...

This data goes into modelling for how the government should make decisions about easing lockdowns etc. The UK has some of the best genomic sequencing in the world which is why we are able to identify variants so quickly.

It's just a shame it took the government 1 year to get ready and lied to us in the meantime.
That’s for the tips! I’ll take a look at alpineJS. I tried vue a long time ago but would definitely give it another look. My complaints really come from using react and I assumed vue had similar issues

We're on Slack and gave Rocket.chat a chance, but the UI is cumbersome and wasn't very well received. Slack is not only free (we use it for hundreds of employees and we don't even pay a dime), and Rocket.chat is self hosted. Easy choice, for the time being.
I agree.

However, I wish our culture considered it rude to just walk up to someone in the middle of deep work and ask them something - unless it’s really important and time critical. It could be a simple as sending a message first “free for a quick chat?”
That's honestly entirely dependent on the doc base. Case in point : learning C# recently I've done everything I could to escape Microsoft's official doc and found myself on a lot of blog posts expounding on topical issues I was encountering. It both makes an incredible amount of assumptions and goes for the most cryptic syntax at all times.
Yeah I never really make crazy interfaces so maybe I’m not the target audience for these frameworks

You could easily have chrome bookmarks work offline and also sync with chrome bookmarks.
Other services have been able to do this in the past. There’s likely code on GitHub that takes some managing that can do this with other bookmarking services.

If Google Maps stars were added/synced to Bookmarks, it makes sense for Chrome bookmarks to have some coupling as well when Chrome bookmark syncing was introduced.
This is particularly true because docs explain functionality and rarely mention use-cases.
France has great tomatoes, but a random tomato you buy on sale at the huge supermarkets aren't any better than anywhere else (in my experience).
It is, but because the majority of people are unaware (or simply don’t care) then it can be hard to avoid. During lockdown I deleted all of my accounts on Facebook owned products, including WhatsApp, but I began to feel increasingly isolated.

Now life is more “normal”, it’s very difficult to meet someone in a bar/club and tell them you don’t have Instagram, Facebook or WhatsApp without sounding dodgy. Sad reality I’ve found as a 25 year old single man in London.
I have a rule that macros are always generated by a perl script. The macro syntax is too easy to mess up. Also generating it in a higher-level language makes it easier to comprehend.

I find these 'what-ifs' to be only thought-exercises. You'll never truly know if the world is in fact a better place because there's no A/B test, no re-do.

In the end humans are naturally curious, expansionist, greedy (to varying degrees). We've always been this way and so it's only natural for us to continue.

We've been described as a virus before, feels relatively accurate esp if we start planet and system hopping.
For colour printing, I found an Epson EcoTank on Gumtree that a local business was giving away for free, having found the process of replacing ink too tedious. For those who don't know, the EcoTank line don't use cartridges in the traditional sense, you just pour ink directly into tanks on the printer. It's a bit of a hassle to fill compared to just putting cartridges in, but for just printing stuff off for around the house, it's worked out so much cheaper for me so far. Plus there's no worry about proprietary cartridges being discontinued in the future. If you can find one for free/cheap, I'd say go for it :)
I'd say it depends very much on your threat model. Would I trust a Docker container with a hostile multi-tenant setup without additional controls.... no.

Is the isolation provided by Docker worth nothing, from a security perspective... also no :)

Hardening containers is a good element of an overall security strategy. It needs to be combined with other controls, both preventative controls at things like the network layer, and detective controls to spot when a preventative control fails and allow for rapid mitigation.
Yes, part of the “art” of stacking is choosing a location where you can easily create a mask that covers the sky but not the ground to avoid blurry artifacts, and then blending the two sections seamlessly.

OK it’s not a perfect correlation, but manual labourers on under 1800 calories/day and with no AC would definitely benefit from more resources!

Even a European level of resource usage (roughly half that of US, last I checked) would be hard to achieve for the entire world pop.

The police haven't always been as militarized as they are now. We could easily go back.
