Apart from the usual things like location, salary range and tech stack, one thing that is really important to me is to understand the market for that role.

I am not interested in fashion. If there was a great job in fashion, I would probably never take it for that reason. On the other hand, a job paying slightly less in a market that I am really interested in is more likely to get my attention.

The only other thing I think is just good UI. Job boards like most search engines can easily return too many or not enough results. Filters are only helpful for some things but there is a danger that I might filter out a job that is paying less than I get now but actually, I might be missing some amazing jobs (maybe with stock).

> At least the Council has people with mandate from the countries

Not in every country. More often, the head of the government is voted for by the national parliament, meaning, only the people having installed them have a form of mandate. (Which is also true for the Commission, BTW.) The people with the actual mandate are in the European Parliament.
Makes you wonder if this is a case of the creator getting ideas from the uproar about Apple's CSAM implementation. Or, optimistically viewed, perhaps someone trying to prove just how slippery the slow is?
Judging by these comments and my own results, perhaps this is a joke. We see these ideas turned into enterprises/ventures all the time. It's as if the people who come up with them are unaware of the fact that these things have been done many times before. Even with that knowledge, some people have motivations to do the same thing again - maybe because it looks like it could be profitable, maybe for the prestige, who knows? At face value, some "launches" seem more like "rehashes", but I can't tell if that's the author's cynicism or my own.
I seriously considered this as an exit strategy at one point too. Also S-Town was fantastic, highly recommended.
2MB Fast RAM expansion with reset-proof RAM disk. In the morning, load all the diskettes. After that...vroooom! :-)

HD-based Unix systems were a bit of a let-down, to be frank...
What are these things that do not work? Asking as someone who's been using Arch consistently on my laptop and on a long-lived VPS since 2007 ... Original VPS install was maintained just through regular updates (including the transition from 32-bit to 64-bit). I did reinstall on the laptop for that.

Meanwhile, $work server images have been Ubuntu LTS, CentOS, and AL2 with updates introducing breakage several times a year.
So it took about a day for the slippery slope to kick in a slide right off a cliff.
Would make little difference. Majority of consumption is coming from small percentage of the world's population. If everyone on the planet consumed at the rate of the top 1% we'd need 10s of earths.
Plus it's also dog whistle. Who should decrease the population? Western white people?

You are talking about communities subsistence farming with large families, and trying to reduce the size of those families through pushing them to industrialise. but what does it matter? those current families no matter how large, don't consume anything.
Not nearly as cool without the NeXT Cube, but that's a bit harder to get.
I tried a few things at the start of the local lockdown, and soon found that laying flat on my back was a bit impractical (this guy seems to have found some solutions which I consider too much hassle like the suspended laptop). Also I find that laying flat on my back puts pressure on my lower back, perhaps due to tight abductor muscles or something.

What I found was that with a couple of pillows on my couch, I could elevate my upper body in a gentle curve which resulted in my eyes being almost level but with no stress on neck or back (compare this to the guy in the article elevating just his head, which is too acute an angle and stresses the neck). At that point I just moved my monitor to various positions and elevations in my sightline until it seemed right. I had my mouse on a coffee table so that my arm was not elevated, and my keyboard on my lap (this part required touch-typing, otherwise I would have to keep lifting my head).

Once I found the sweet spot where i was relaxed but supported ( it wasn't that hard), I could pretty much work indefinitely. At that point the issue was no longer stress on any body parts, but the potential overall fitness degradation of lying down all day, which could theoretically be solved with regular breaks for getting up and moving around, but I was probably a bit lazy with that.
Glowworm Attack Optical Sound Recovery via a Device’s Power Indicator LED
>Nothing is happening to files you don't attempt to upload to the cloud.

I am aware, but because the scanner now exists on the device, they have the capability of scanning images on your device regardless of whether or not you upload it to the cloud if they so choose to OR ARE ORDERED TO. Do you not see the difference in capability?
Pretty sure they do, yeah. :)
Steve Jobs received a standing ovation when he showed how the new iOS would finally let you change your wallpaper. This broke the RDF for me.
Disclaimer: I'm not defending their point of you, just reasoning through it.

My naive take is that it calls into question if the supposed catastrophe (from the 40%'s point of view) is real if the leaders aren't taking it seriously themselves. "objectively true" only works if you understand the problem without, from your point of view, suspicious people explaining it to you. In this case, the suspicious people would be the primary ones telling you that you have to pay this tax while they are mysteriously exempt.
I never bought from Black Hole (Rob Blessin) directly since shipping to Europe is rather expensive, but Rob is a long-term NeXT supporter and also very active on the nextcomputers.org forums - so I would recommend getting in touch with him if you are interested in buying a system.

I think his company is mostly a single-person operation, so I would expect response times sometimes a bit longer than what you might be used from larger companies.
My understanding, is that existing NCMEC policy includes non CSAM photos that were found alongside CSAM. I’m not talking about evil government attacks surreptitiously criminalizing your meme images in the US, I’m worried about boring dystopia where over time the false positive rate is much higher than anyone will admit and Apple employees are reviewing tens of millions of false positive photos at random from people’s iPhones a year.

And a more direct dystopia outside the US where they have already criminalized your memes. What stops China from saying we have our own database of images objectionable to the state that you must scan devices for?
It's the general problem that if the violations and negative PR hurt more than false positives, then they will err on the side of being wrong. Which means more people demonetized/banned. We're all just collateral damage.

As for the 20.3 million reports, Facebook probably decided it was better to bury the authorities in a massive pile of paperwork than to see a day in court. Plus they get to claim they are doing something.
Well-chosen function names (where a function name says what it does),

When Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Bill Richardson, many other politicians and financial elites (the majority are still in the shadows, not yet exposed to the public) have been jet setting with decades-known child sexual abusers such as their good friend Jeffrey Epstein, it really makes me question the ACTUAL motive.

Ruling elites do not care about CSAM-- many of them engage in it, as part of unbeknownst or beknownst honey pot schemes, whereby blackmail is gathered on them as collateral that they will follow the political and financial dictates of their [ultimately] Qui Intelligence handlers.

This is merely an excuse to exercise power. And why now? Because you know qui are afraid that they've played their hand too sloppily-- forbidden knowledge on their true colors has spread too fast & they can't keep a lid on it-- and now populaces around the world are rioting against their satanic organization.
> Would you mind avoiding the tortured use of terminology from CS to describe what is not a CS problem?

You haven't mentioned which terminology you're talking about but assuming it is one of combinatorial explosion, compression, framing or heuristics; these are not computer science exclusive jargon, these are information processing terms, something both humans and computers do, and as such used in cognitive science contexts pretty extensively and correctly.

> This occurs too often on HN and often conceals gross misunderstanding behind a veneer of technical jargon.

Unless you're ready to point out what the gross misunderstanding was, your point is moot.
I’ve been thinking carefully about this situation.

I just don’t see the intrusion.

Firstly, you are syncing your photos to iCloud. It’s equivalent to developing your photos at an old timey film shop.

iCloud happens to have lots of security guarantees, much like the film shop.

But the moment you develop CP, all bets are off. I think most of us lead pampered, selfish lives. Perhaps this is a “think of the children” cry, and perhaps this has been used for many evils over time.

If Apple were to get their lists of hashes from China (a situation they’ve opened themselves up to in the future), then sure, that’s awful. Or if they were doing these checks and alerting law enforcement without iCloud sync, then that’s awful too.

But this doesn’t seem to be a slippery slope, yet. They are targeting a specific case: you uploading your photos, and your photos being of known child sexual abuse.

Yes, there are false positive photos in the database. Maybe there’s even a flower in there. But if you got flagged as a false positive, the moment law enforcement looks at your photos (which, remember, you’ve surrendered to iCloud), you sexually abusing a flower won’t cause any problems.

Or will it? Please, my mind is open. I’d love to change it.
The decision shoots CSAM policing in the foot. Before, people trusted their iphone, and when a phone was conphiscsted as apart of an investigation orgs like the FBI had methods to break them due to their singular popularity. Now, those with actual intent to create and distribute are going to be far more cautious and use more secure systems. The actual perpetrators of abuse slip through the cracks once again while we pat ourselves on the back that we maybe will catch a few idiots that only consume it.

Same happened with Fosta, same with the war on drugs. The actual perpetrators don't get caught, the abuse continues, but the metrics make it look good.
Leaders share 30 lessons for new managers
Agreed. Which carrier suspended your service, Neil?

Maybe you triggered a stolen-phone alert in their system... if there is such a thing.
I think HN readership is so used to live in the digital world that many forgot we can live without internet as humans.

ANY connected digital media can become a 1984-style spying device if you don't have full access to it or even if you have that but you are not an experienced electrical engineer.

The only defensible platforms are nondigital media and airgapped computing. I, for one, wouldn't shoot a nude with any digital device nowadays. Only exception would be a camera that gets connected only to airgapped computers.

But we are losing that too. In a short time we won't even be able to pay for that Polaroid or to buy a Librephone without being traced in some digital form.

We are losing all the battles but we need at least to prioritize. The cloud is lost, connected devices are lost. We need at least to keep cash payments, and to pressure the government to break up digital monopolies.

I don't want to sound like desperate luddite but I really think that warrants requirements are unenforceable in the digital world and we really really need to keep important parts of our lives in the analog one.
Yeah, that could be a problem with the deck, consoles players are not great at keepong their stuff up to date. My switched stay offline for months. Besides, I wanna play, not update, so If I see an update prompt I delay, and if I can't I hate the product.
Or in this case, sue the company producing the device and (further) threaten your franchisees with (both litigious and economic) harm if they use the product.
> When most videos were just of the group on a studio stage performing the song [..] other bands of the time had arthouse filmmakers [..] doing much more creative work.

As a teen, this made me consider same-song-performance-but-on-video artists as lazy and cheap, and single-handedly fueled my appreciation for Australian bands. Didn't know they pioneered the concept.
Been using computers since DOS 6. "App" was very rarely used, to the point that if you'd ask me to list names for the concept of a computer program I'd probably not have come up with it, before iOS, in my experience.
The drawback to using sid in this way is that every 2 years during the release freeze, regular uploads to it taper off or halt. Depending on the maintainer, uploads of new releases etc. may continue into the experimental branch, but those packages have to be pulled in manually, and continuing to upload in this manner is not always done. In principle, though, sid+experimental has the capacity to be analogous to a true rolling release.
Then there's the bit about:

>...gained popularity in the early 20th century...

I don't think the 70's count as early in the 20th century.
I originally thought this essay would be about the fact that something like constexpr should appear to be the same platform as your target.

This is an interesting property. For example, if I insist on writing down a 64-bit integer in memory and then staring at the individual bytes, the platform determines the layout of that structure. You don't want to know what the layout is for your compiler but for your target.

Floating point maths is often tricky in this world. You expect the constexpr platform to have the same behaviour as your target, but emulating that (assuming you aren't in the trivial case of compiling on the target) can mean some pretty fearsome work that can't be justified. So, maybe the ARM CPU at runtime calculates a very slightly different value for the "constant" internal_damping_factor from the value used in constexpr functions on this x86-64 cross compiler...

However it turns out I once again underestimated how far out C++ wants to go here. Shine on you crazy diamond.
On the other hand, I'm not buying an iPhone due to control issues. If I were able to fully control it, I'd probably buy one.
> scanning your entire Photos library and sending hashes to an unaccountable, no oversight nonprofit (NCMEC) to be compared with CSAM hashes - with no way to contest what you send.

This is simply incorrect. It's clearly documented how this works. 1) only files about to be uploaded to iCloud are scanned, 2) Apple maintains the hashes for comparison in their servers (not NCMEC), 3) only after multiple photos match is the account flagged for review, 4) they are reviewed by Apple to catch false positives, 5) only after match is confirmed is the account disabled and the user reported to NCMEC, and 6) you can still appeal to Apple to have your account reinstated.

But my response wasn't to you - was it?
I think many steer clear of sid because of the security policy:

Please note that security updates for "unstable" distribution are not managed by the security team. Hence, "unstable" does not get security updates in a timely manner. [1]

> How much risk do you think your children have?

Very little, probably, but I don't think anyone can say. I've read the same statistics as you. But our understanding is immature, no?

For example, we're seeing now that young people, who were infected with COVID-19 but who had extremely mild cases / symptoms, are now experiencing / developing so-called long COVID. Here's a piece in the NY Times from yesterday [0] and similarly in Yahoo! News (not behind the paywall) [1] . In addition, pediatric cases of COVID-19 are currently on the rise.

Here's an excerpt:

> An April study by the United Kingdom’s Office for National Statistics found that 9.8% of 2-11-year-olds and 13% of 12-16-year-olds infected with the coronavirus reported continuing symptoms five weeks later. After 12 weeks, rates remained significant: 7.4% in the younger group and 8.2% in the older group.

That sounds much worse than the flu:

> In another U.K. study, 4.4% of 1,734 children had symptoms more than four weeks post-COVID, over four times as high as the percentage with symptoms four weeks after non-COVID illnesses like flu.

So, this aspect of the pandemic actually is much worse than the flu.

edit/ Typos and words.
It's not hard to imagine that authoritarian regimes all over the world will soon have their own special list of hashes of "illegal" images. Seems like a great way to bury any photographic evidence of government abuse.
That is an amazing definition. It is so simple, but gives insight into so much.

Also love how you applied that to the current big problem of politics.

Now it's got me thinking about certain people who don't have the horsepower to generate good models, who are successful in life, despite their stupidity, because they still avoid bad decisions. And how certain behaviors and beliefs can mitigate stupidity quite well.
OCSP is default enabled in Firefox actually, so you're already doing that.

Setting required to true just makes it actually demand a response instead of allowing an MITM to block it making OCSP ineffective.

At the end of the day we need to start progressively rejecting certificates that aren't OCSP stapled to fix both sides of this, but for now this is the best fix available for technical people who understand how OCSP works.
The report talks about hypothetical setup with smart girds and customers reacting on price change. This configuration was never tried at 80% scale. It might or might not work.

People did try decarbonise industrial economy to 70% - it worked with technology existing not now but in the eighties. And it did not put any limitations on consumers, while taking just 10 years to implement.

Surely at code red we should be looking at things that were shown to work?
> If I am trying try accomplish X, it is absolutely true that I am trying to accomplish X. Both you (the observer) and I can acknowledge this fact.

How does the observer know what someone else is trying to accomplish? The observer cannot peer into the person's mind.

Initial Comments on IPCC AR6 Working Group 1
I am painfully aware. The person I replied to is obviously not the only one with that mindset, which is what makes this such a tough sell. At the same time, this is an absurdly shortsighted way of looking at the problem. I get that paying taxes suck, but if the consequence is unmitigated climate change, then maybe taxes are the lesser evil?

To me this whole thing is absolutely absurd, most everyone agrees that we need to do something about climate change, as long as it isn’t them having to change. This isn’t going to get us out of this, at some point we’ll have to realize that “it’s only the big corporations at fault and I’m just a humble innocent cog in the machine” isn’t true and we are all complicit in this. That we all have to do something about this. But hey, finding a scapegoat is always the nice and easy solution. Now we can lean back, pat ourselves on the shoulder because we have identified the problem.

We, collectively as humans, are borderline insane.
This is about Apple scanning the pictures on your phone, not the pictures that have been synced to iCloud.

As an Arch user I wonder if this means I'll get better native support of Steam on my desktop. I wouldn't say there are any major issues right now but every little bit that makes the experience better is one more reason I can stop keeping a Windows install around.
Yeah - that was the thing. To traditional mac users, the finder wasn't a file-browser, full stop. It was a document viewer. Each folder was a document.

What would have been really nice would have been to get a clear, visually-distinct instance of both; to get a really clear "this is a file browser" tool in the finder, and a really clear "this is a folder" tool in the finder.

They're both really useful tools to have - what was awful wasn't gaining a file browser, but was how they mixed file browsing and folder viewing into this awful pea-soup thing that damaged a bunch of the value points of both tools.

I really like having a file browser, but there's a LOT of value to having something that treats folders as individual, stateful documents.
And to me this still sounds a lot more complicated than using WordPress or, if you want to go full static, Jekyll.
Don't have any of the actual content handy, but here's an online tool that advertises itself for that specific purpose: https://spinbot.com/ Google "rewriting tool" for more examples. Apparently it's a lot more common than I'd realized.

> McDonalds is trying to save between 1.5 and 2 hours a day of labor with the machines that do the automatic heating/sterilization. That's the only reason any of this is happening.

Or, you can't 100% guarantee staff will perform the sterilization, and that's the only way to guarantee people won't die, regardless of the reason it didn't get done.
I don't think strawmanning political parties is particularly helpful here.
As a new manager, it's been incredibly overwhelming trying to figure out the ins and outs of management. There's a silly amount of advice out there but a lot of it falls flat when it comes to how actionable it is.

So, we rounded up 30 lessons from leaders in the trenches on advice they would give to a first-time manager. The bonus is that their advice also serves as great refreshes for more tenured leaders.

> The real problem is that McDonalds corporate forces franchisees to buy a crappy version of the machine that generates huge income for Taylor

Wendys also uses the same vendor with a better machine, which is where this starts to look malicious rather than incompetent. The broken machine is one specifically made for McDonalds.

In general, this is anti-consumer in two different ways - you don't give me ice-cream with the apple pie and whenever it breaks, you throw away a couple of gallons of the mixture to be safe.

There was a deep-dive into this from Johnny Harris[1], which dug through the manuals for the machine, sales projections from Taylor and why McD franchisees are easier marks for this than others (the revenue volume is huge).
