I ran into this issue a couple years back, and while googling found this stackoverflow answer which I thought was pretty neat.

Kroger has felt especially intrusive for a couple of decades; it's almost as though they're going out of their way to be manipulative and creepy, right from the store layout where Pepsi is $87.00 at your feet and Coke is $0.75 at eye level, down to the personalized coupons they send you in the mail. But the big stores that don't have loyalty cards are still slurping up data; they just get it from your credit card and their cameras. I don't know what the answer is, beyond just trying to frequent farmers' markets.
OP specifies repetition of phrasing, not just the facts themselves, implying some degree of "coaching"/collusion or a common source (i.e. non-independence).

> then you better go find and listen to the crackpot insisting it's a cube

OP never implied this, this is a strawman intended to cheaply dismiss the point.

> I wonder why I am perceived as arrogant and tedious?

^ followed by a personal attack..
> to pretend that Russia

I didn't pretend anything, I compared two things.

The US intelligence agencies don't themselves have a clean record: COINTELPRO, PRISM, CIA spying on the Senate intelligence committee (then lying about it).

Each of those counts as a conspiracy, and it's of note that people like Edward Snowden have been hunted and chased out of the country (and people like Julian Assange similarly persecuted).

He was convicted of "wrongfully posing for an unofficial picture with a human casualty" and was demoted; what other war crime(s) was he convicted of?
You may be right about that. I don't interview often. I despise switching jobs because of the gamut of exams and tests they put you through. I've had 2-3 hour exams before. Sometimes coding, sometimes pure psych exams. It completely pushes me away from seeking new jobs. Thanks for mentioning it because sometimes people, including myself, lose the script.
Since we're listing well-made OSS games, I'm going to add Empty Epsilon to the list. It's a multiplayer spaceship bridge simulator. Like in Star Trek, you have a captain, a helmsman, a weapons engineer, and so on. Great fun for LAN parties especially.

I don't think that should be the question.

For example: it's not morally equivalent to die while drunk driving at 150 km/h vs dying as a pedestrian because someone ran over you.

I would prefer 10 drunk drivers die instead of just one innocent person.

This doesn’t really feel like a real problem in first world countries. While it is possible to get a drivers license or birth certificate fraudulently, it is definitely not easy. And each step of the way, you are taking a huge risk of being found out and facing severe punishment, especially since many of these forms of ID require to see you in person, and take/verify your picture or other biometrics (passports, driver’s license, biometric residence permit, national identity card, etc). It is a huge amount of time and effort, where you are exposing a significant amount of your own biometric information, in order to commit some sort of financial crime using that identity. That is orders of magnitude more risky and more difficult than using some pieces of information you stole off the internet to commit a financial crime, also over the internet, without exposing any biometric information about yourself.

Then, when the “real” person asserted the falsehood of your identity, regardless of your real ID cards, it would still be easily provable that you were not the real person. For instance the real person could have their parents verify their identities and certify that the birth certificate you both have a copy of is legitimately tied to the real person and not you. Unlike now, where you can just walk away from some fake accounts and internet information, there is biometric data linking you to multiple serious crimes.

Is it something that could happen, and probably does? Sure. Is it something that would happen even 1% as often as identity theft related financial crimes happen under the current system? Absolutely not. It feels like the current problem is banks being robbed because they are storing their money in a cabinet next to the glass front door, and you are arguing that if banks build vaults and security systems that bank robbers will just bring huge industrial drills with diamond coted bits to break into the vault over multiple hours while bypassing the security system. Sure, they could do that, but bank robberies will still drop to almost nothing compared to before.
> If, in your job, you were trying to express technical information, you wouldn't use LaTeX.

If it was for print then yes, I would. But a CV isn't technical information so I'm not sure what your point is here.

Have you considered that LaTeX might be the only typesetting tool I know? Why would I learn another piece of software just to typeset my CV?

The difference is that Slack actually gives you things when you pay: they host your company's photos, chats, and everything else. SigmaOS is literally flipping zero-margin utility, and I have a hard time imagining a "professional" who feels the need to pay $15/month for something they already use for free (and cannot be used on their other devices). Slack is cheaper, cross-platform, and actually provides some form of value.

> SPF attests that the mail was sent by an IP address that is authorized to send for a certain domain.

Yes, but SPF ties the IP address only to the Sender address (MAIL FROM) - so utterly useless in stopping phishing emails for example, if attackers can use said domain in From address.

> DKIM attests that various headers, usually including the From: address, are approved by the owner of the domain.

As the From address (and implicitly domain) is the one people see (and trust) DKIM in a way should matter more.

Also, misconfigured SPF records happen from time to time (on big domains actually), where bad actors can then take advantage of them and abuse delivery, much harder for a DKIM private key to end up in the wrong hands.

Ask HN: What are some thought-provoking comics I can read with my kids?
I'm interested in doing a book club of sorts with my children. I'm looking for something in the sci-fi/fantasy realm that depicts characters with a variety of motivations, biases, and cultural backgrounds. I want to be able to discuss how the fictional world influences how the characters think, feel, and grow.

A junior high reading comprehension level would probably be best, although I'm willing to consider things more juvenile or advanced. It can be a paper and ink graphic novel or a digital format like a web comic; either is fine.

US troops are held accountable for "war crimes" if that's what you're wondering. https://www.rt.com/usa/180692-marine-taliban-urinating-video...

In that specific incident, such a degree of accountability was desired to be held that the Commandant of the Marine Corps is said to have attempted an influencing campaign around their trial: https://www.marinecorpstimes.com/news/your-marine-corps/2017...

I'm sure there are things the military does that go untracked, however, deploying troops are heavily trained on the Law of Land and Warfare, the Geneva Convention (which only applies to how they treat citizens of a nation and the terrorists they're fighting, not to how they will be treated.), and various others.

So, what war crimes are you wanting them to investigate that their own governing bodies have not chased?

You made a scene, while intentionally avoiding saying anything that could be construed as a threat (which is generally an attempt at subtle threatening), and you hope that you shook him up.

That's a really fair point- it's usage in other industries and contexts may be where the term came from.

Specifically, I'm talking about the "ask" noun meaning "request for work". "My team has 10 outstanding asks from the billing team, but we don't report to their VP so we can deprioritize 8 of them".

I would hope that in that context, you don't presume that I mean one of the two definitions you've posted :)
I wonder what it is about hacker news that brings out this incessant negativity in people. Have you considered that:

- This product might only be a couple of months old and they have bigger plans for it over the next year?

- The founders don't have all the answers and they're learning just as much as we are right now?

- Even though YOU might not see enough value to warrant the price tag, there might be people (or businesses) who do?

Maybe you just can't empathize because you haven't build something from 0 -> 1 yet. I am the same age as you but I have failed building a couple of things before, where it looks like you have had a bunch of jobs. I don't cast scorn on people who are early on building things, because I've been in their shoes. Maybe you're right and there's nothing here. Or maybe in two years, their browser is miles ahead of the extension you're referring to.

Is not a built in text editor, is a command to open programmatically your default text editor to edit a file (new or existing).

There are several cases when you would want to do that, for example, think on the git CLI, that opens one so you can write a commit message, etc.

And is not only about using the EDITOR variable, most non-programmers doesn’t have one defined or it points to vim or something equally terrible for non technical users.
Political factors encouraged people to consider the “occupation” phase over quickly, but parts of Japan were under direct US civil administration until 1972, and both countries to this day have an order of magnitude more troops than Afghanistan did. If a German 20 years after World War II were plotting to restore the Nazi government, “the US might just shoot us all” would have to be part of the calculation.

Germany and Japan were also quite a bit more successful at actually ending the organizations occupying troops found unacceptable.

Well over 2m in federal funds are provided for counties in the appalachian high intensity drug trafficking area organized by a group called the appalachian regional commission and subgroup substance abuse advisory council. Those funds are then used to sponsor manufacturing industries moving to the area and keep up a substance abuse treatment grift that includes a lot of cannabis users. Often the punishment for minor drug crimes is supervised probation for a year, including the requirement of full time employment and inability to leave the area (which is known to be under performing economically as that is the criteria for ARC intervention) [0]. This creates the additional benefit of a cheap labor pool for the sponsored companies.

The entire Appalachian region (which somehow includes Mississippi and Alabama) is given 235m to achieve the goal of retaining or creating 26k jobs (9k per job).

So yea, I guess 2m state budget is nothing compared to propping up several industries in the poorest counties using some people who are essentially enslaved for cannabis use to prop up their success metrics. It is easier to extract productivity from people using a non-addictive substance than actual hard drug users or alcoholics.

> but Saddam slaughtered hundreds of thousands of mostly Shi'a and Kurdish civilians

I'm not saying that this isn't very bad, and worth stopping, but how is it different from what happens all the time on a lot of places on that region? (Is the US planning an invasion of Israel right now? I don't think so.)

Countries normally don't interfere on such things because doing it has a tendency of backfiring and making things worse than they were at the beginning. From my impression many thousands of km away, the US people mostly did held that opinion at the time, and would refuse to allow an invasion if the government didn't lie to them. Also, the WMD focus was such a blatant lie that it's impossible that anybody with any power believed it.
Ultimate Go [0] maybe another option. Heard some good things about it. I haven't tried it though.

This is so bizarre. The guy is posting literal Nazi propaganda - as in literally a document written by Goebbels, finds it removed from Facebook for violating community standards, and concludes that the reason must be that Facebook is sympathetic to Goebbels' worldview?

Is this a good-faith accusation?
Interesting. So just oil in a general sense but also Iraq as a destabilizing entity in the area where oil is a primary natural resource. We have to be careful not to be confused with the common conspiracy theory that the US wanted to steal Iraqi oil.

I can buy that. This also needs some context though. Meeting minutes can be seen as brainstorming ideas. Having oil is huge though- having a good natural resource cash cow helps you pay/feed your military and fund an economy- something we see Afghanistan lacked. Good point though, noted. Thanks.

Anytime anyone expresses a thought critical of China, it inevitably provokes whataboutisms. It’s not a particularly compelling argument, about on the level of a guilty chid complaining about other kids not getting punished.

I'm not sure how the cars know the speed limit. Maybe someone else knows? My guess is combo of GPS/camera to position correctly on road and the lookup of known speed limit data. Perhaps it reads signs though?
Ive never read this book in particular, but had a similar experience with another book (Serge Lang, Basic Mathematics) that changed my life trajectory. If you find this stuff remotely interesting please give it a go! Math is really wonderful!

Learning math in some prescribed way (book or sequence of books) is the mathematics equivalent of "what programming language should I learn first". The most important thing is simply doing anything at all! Don't get planning paralysis!

If you think you'll actually do or read anything, then give it a try. Definitely push yourself some, but if it becomes a slog don't be afraid to move on to something that looks more interesting.
Youll find your way back to anything that was actually important anyway. :)

Just tossing this out there- apple only claimed .local in rfc as of 2013. There are plenty of 'legacy' production environments that I support that still use .local without issue with mac clients. Its possible there would be a collision- but in practice the pain point is not enough concern for many with the limited subset of apple devices on their corporate networks.

Still pissed that apple was straight up allowed to usurp that tld instead of something like .mdns.local or .autoconf

Also, please dont use .com/net/org for local networks. All you are going to do is punish yourself when you go to setup you AD domain. However if you want to setup a subdomain that you are willing to make the AD server authoritative for you may end up with less pain. If you have to use your own domain keep in mind that if you go to setup AD in your home/lab/small biz you will need to add records for your webserver/mailserver etc since AD will want to be the authoritative dns server for its domain. There are ways around this, but I digress. Using a public tld can cause pain, just be aware of that.
> We don't use first person voice on resumes. We use 'implied first person' (no 'I').

Who is "we" here? I've always had good results with a first person CV - so far in the US, the UK, and the EU. Maybe I just get away with it by luck or circumstance, but it's clearly not a set-in-stone requirement.

> It feels more like "I built it using LaTeX to try and impress you" than "it's the best tool for the job".

Anecdotally a friend who at that time worked at Sun Microsystems told me that his team prioritised CVs created with LaTeX over all others.

After all, if the purpose of a CV is not to "try and impress you" then what is it?

Honestly, my initial reaction to that is "well, this is a great example why I don't like Firefox's DNS-over-HTTPS thing." Firefox should follow the OS's DNS settings, not make assumptions about how I run my network.

But a great counterargument would be "too bad, Firefox and now Google are doing it anyway, you lost and this is the world we live in, so deal with it." And, you'd have a point!

All these crashes happened with the radar-controlled auto pilot. A radar system basically cannot detect static obstactles, as it doesn't have the spacial resolution to distinguish an obstacle in your lane from something right beside or above it (bridges). They can only use the radar to follow other cars, because these are not stationary objects.

Recently, Tesla switched from radar-based to pure optical obstacle recognition. This should vastly improve this kind of behavior. Ironically that the investigation starts at a moment when they basically got rid of the old system.
