What does the FCC consider to be "reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of its customers data"? Is there a document somewhere that outlines the best practices they expect you to follow?

I'm aware, and don't think I'd agree that flags (or emoji more generally) were handled well at all. I generally think that such things should be handled via an escape code that invokes some other (higher level) standard, the same as colored or bold font in the terminal. It would arguably make much more sense to encode flags (and emoji-like things in general) as some sort of compressed SVG representation. At least then (among other things) I wouldn't have to wonder how things would look to message recipients or someone reading old messages in the future.
A survey from this week reported that economists expect: Next month, or maybe November or possibly December, the Fed will announce when they plan to start slowing down the rate at which they purchase treasuries and mortgage-backed securities, currently at $120B/month. Once those reach zero they might think about raising the interest rates.

The Fed and Treasury know what they're doing more than I do but I hope this doesn't get out of control. Recognizing CPI increases could be attributed to factors outside technical inflation, and they're worried about deflation, there's the whole saying about the inflation genie being tough to put back in the bottle, and sentiment causing feedback making the problem worse.

I'm a liberal and I worry if we're currently talking about chip shortages and elevated shipping costs going for at least another year, people are going to see markedly higher prices on everything with possibly little to no pay increases by next year's elections, and the left will get crushed in contended seats. I also worry about people's ability to pay expenses and save of course, not to be cold-hearted and just think politics.

Ask HN: Browser extension to make custom key bindings to actions?
A couple of years ago, I used a Chrome extension that allowed me to set keys to perform all sorts of actions (close tab, reload page, jump to url bar...). It was really effective because it had much more granular control over the regular keyboard shortcuts.

I forgot its name. I think it was a four letter, made-up word. Something like "Joda". Does anyone know such an extension, or an alternative?

Thanks

I honestly think this is still true. Good people getting stuff done is still hidden, now behind some wagile (waterfall agile) in larger companies where the incompetent have been promoted to one step above their ability (the 'Peter Principle'), and the people who do the real work keep doing it.
'Bad faith' is a term literally intended for situations such as these. When you do something 'according to the rules' but clearly against the intent of the rules.
Why is this upvoted? I'm not a crazy QAnon or anything, just Soros is an awful human. Did he mention how he pretended not to be Jewish, so that he could join a force where he found other Jewish people for arrest? Guess not.

Desperate times call for desperate measures, but he should have just slinked away in shame. To write an article painting his family in anything other than a shitty light is, well, gross.
More evidence to support my belief that everyone should just opt out of providing their identities whenever possible. Some people might call it fraud but things that occur on the internet isn't real life anyways. Why should I blend the two?

Though to be fair, whenever If I think I might get into trouble for not providing my real name I just use my initials.
You don't hire the devops person until you've scaled to the point that you need one.

Additionally, your thought of having my company held hostage by a single devops person is terrifying. Now you need two of them, which is even more expensive.

It is a great way to bootstrap a company by saving on a salary (or two) that can honestly be engineered out for a lot of SASS businesses. It worked super well for us... and calling someone who did $80m in the first year deluded seems well, rude.

But, if you start off designing systems that scale on their own, you are much better prepared for when you do get some fast growth than dealing with hiring a good devops person (which is extremely hard, as they say.. all the good ones are taken).

At the end of the day, the actual elephant in the room is that django was the wrong choice. You end up having to go through a lot of contortions to make things work, as evidenced by the blog post. The architecture doesn't make things easy to spin up quickly... which creates a lot of bottlenecks. There are better cloud-based solutions.
Used to work at T-Mobile. It was a complete and utter shit show and I'm extremely glad I left. Mega corps never do things well.
> why can't you just periodically fetch and cache the records yourself?

The only way this will help you is if you recursively de-reference all the records, and replace them with a list of allowed sender IPs. Now you have a new problem. You only get 255 characters in a single string in DNS. You can chain multiple 255 character strings together into a single record though, so you can get up to 4K characters. But, if you have a bunch of authorized spoofers (e.g., mailchimp) that different departments of your organization uses, even 4K characters may not be enough (source: I went through this exercise a couple years ago and our organization would have needed closer to 8K characters for the de-referenced records).

Our solution is to include our own outbound MTAs, and ?all. On inbound, we don't use SPF as a signal at all, as there are too many sites with misconfigured records.

Long term, we are trying to get each department to send spoofed mail using per-department subdomains, e.g., info@marketing.example.org, data@research.example.org, etc.

DKIM + DMARC is designed to handle the above without any of the issues SPF has.
For non-TLDs, example.com is also good.

American journalism in the aftermath of WW2 had a brief moment where it became both a unifying idea (largely sharing and building shared cultural values) and was largely seen as high-integrity. This perception began collapsing around the start of the internet news age, and now has pretty much totally collapsed. But it's important to remember that the WW2 consensus around the press was just an artifact of its times and that Franklin is talking about the press from a very different lens. To him the "press" was more like the Federalist Papers or Thomas Paine's "Common Sense". If you want to see what journalism _used_ to be like in the US, read about Yellow Journalism [1], or just read some news from the 1800s industrial era in the US.

The article is good, but misses an important point (that adds yet another confusing thing about email): the difference between Header.From and Envelope.From and how DMARC also solves this by requiring identifier alignment.

Without it, generally only partial validation of the envelope address happens by i.e. SPF.
Korean War is still ongoing, after 71 years. No Peace Treaty to end that war was ever signed.

World War 2 was not an American-only success:

In the Pacific war, they were helped by the Chinese who held down lots of Japanese forces for eight years in China, and the British and Indians and Australians who fought the Japanese in South Asia.

Against the Germans, the Americans, as in Asia, entered the war long after it had started. The Soviets killed eighty percent of all German casualties, and had the Great Patriotic War practically won single-handedly long before the Western Allies got ashore on D-Day in mid 1944.

Without the Western Allies and D-Day, most estimates put the end of the war in Europe around Spring 1946 with the Soviets at the English Channel.
This is 45 minutes long and seems fairly routine; any particular part you want to draw our attention to, OP?
This happened to me a couple months ago; I screwed up a logrotate entry on some of our servers (thankfully, mostly in the dev dc) and ended up with log.txt.0, log.txt.0.0, log.txt.0.0.0.0, &c &c. If your CWD was the directory with those files, anything you did that called readdir just hung. I ended up having to write a tiny program that looped getdents, and was surprised at how poorly documented/integrated it was with the rest of the API.
A while ago, while designing an MPP system for AWS Lambda, I came to the conclusion that in the absence of statistics, merge operators for joins and aggregates have better worst-case behavior than the hash-based alternatives. (See samplesort for a distributed sort algorithm that works well for sorting the merge inputs.)

This is horrible, America didn't support our veterans of this boondoggle, now we're allowing this? Seriously, I'm no longer proud of the time I served in our military, I bear it as a mark of shame now because after these 20 years it seems my service helped to do more harm than good. Shameful. This country should immediately send in rescuers, I don't care if it takes all of the special forces, we need to extract these people now.

People Explain Why They Want to Buy Fake Vaccine Cards
So many people here talking about "False Advertising"[0] thinking that is enough.

The pursuant likely has a case under a false advertising claim especially when considering:

> For example, a lease advertisement for an automobile that promotes "$0 Down" may be misleading if significant and undisclosed charges are due at lease signing

The problem is "false advertising" doesn't get him the jet. It just says Pepsi should be slapped on the wrist, made to change their advertisement. Non-compliance is:

> orders to cease and desist, with fines up to $43,792 per violation should they occur.

> injunctions by federal district courts. Violations of some Commission rules also could result in civil penalties of up to $40,654 per violation. Violations of court orders could result in civil or criminal contempt proceedings.

> in some instances, refunds to consumers for actual damages in civil lawsuits.

Leonard had to go after it being a contractual obligation if he wanted any chance at Pepsi giving him the jet or equivalent monetary value.

The judge was correct. It's not a contract. Is it false advertising? Probably, but that wasn't the question at hand.

Can SPF, DKIM, and DMARC be CNAMEs? It’s a little bit easier when one can move all this stuff onto one host, away from the rest of ones infra, especially when it comes to distributing DKIM keys.

I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s also a mail daemon that also did DNS for you. Everything in one simple MTA. Begone, Exim4 mega config and update-exim4.conf.conf.conf!
What a disaster. We could have pulled out after the "Mission Accomplished" banner and had the same result. Instead, 20 years later, we have 2,400 Americans dead, 20,000 wounded, $3+ Trillion spent, and the unanswered question of what exactly they sacrificed so much for.

Dr. Davies got a little carried away in his rhetoric :-)

//This is where Norton gets tricky with us. He posits another solution to the equation ...

Norton didn't posit this as a solution, it is a solution.

//This is baffling. It’s bizarre to stitch two different solutions to an equation

Norton never stitches together two solutions. I don't know if Dr. Davies is unfamiliar with a function defined using a case statement, but there's nothing Frankensteinish about it.

//but in fact the top equation is not Newtonian at the apex (clearly since it moves despite the absence of a force there).

Alas, Dr. Davies has missed the biggest delight of Norton's Dome! The ball can nondeterministically roll off of Norton's dome and yet still obey all of Newton's laws :-). It sure looks like it wouldn't be--after all, how can the ball start to move in absense of a force?

But at time t=T, the ball isn't moving yet. Its not even accelerating yet. So at time t=T its obeying Newton's laws. An at every time before and after that it also obeys Newton's laws.
If I remember correctly there is a break keyword, but continue is missing. At least in Lua 5.1 which is still the most popular one.

I truly do not understand why this problem has gone on for so long. It's clear that many people think `.home.arpa` is ugly. It boggles my mind that the IETF and ICANN can't come up with some agreement to get `.home` or something similar codified like RFC 7788 tried to do. This just seems like a fight between giant bureaucracies while meanwhile the users suffer and bad decisions like assigning `.dev` are made. I get that there are rules around this sort of critical infrastructure and its management, but come ON. /rant

With the rant ended: can anyone explain to me why all the relevant organizations can't get together and assign a TLD for this purpose that doesn't end in `.arpa`?

Maybe not as counterintuitive as it may seem.

Gosh, we've been seeing a lot of links about inflation since about November 7th of last year. In fact the top three articles on the topic - of all time - were in the past few months [1]. The next most popular thread was 11 years ago. Apparently, HN hasn't really cared about inflation until just recently.

Hmm, I wonder why that is? Maybe there's a group pushing an agenda in order to make the current governing party look bad? Just a guess.

> You know google support boolean terms in their search products, right?

I know they used to. I know people claim they still do. If they do, they seem to only treat it as a suggestion (like searching for a significantly less popular by very similar word) and ignore me when I tell them to exclude specific terms.

> How do you know how most people think?

Okay, I'm not going to play the game where I have to keep supplying evidence and you keep denying it. What do you want. Google agreed with me, you have no training in anticipating how people think and the rarity of people capable of being programmers are sufficient for me to say it's time for you to start supplying proof of your blatant assertions.

> You think most people don't understand how to ideate "all my friends except bob" to invite people to bob's surprise birthday party?

Correct. And certainly even if they can it's only because that example is particularly simple (it's the same as always only without Bob). It doesn't solve 99% of use cases.

I'm not disputing that syntactical sugar is nice, I'm saying people are not capable of the complex operations to make the system you are positing work the majority of time for the majority of people, they will either quit in frustration or send their drunken party pictures to their boss or mother.
A Little Vim Trick
Because digging up facts is very expensive, and not necessarily engaging to the public.

Ontario Public Broadcasting has this show 'The Agenda' with 'Steve Paikin' where he brings in mid-level and behind-the-scenes people from the bureaucracy people and they talk about granular issues of civic reform in great detail.

If you want to inform yourself on the nitty-gritty details of the new 'Subway Expansion' and why it's over budget, it's all right there.

But it's incredibly boring , and there's very little viewership.

Donald Trump put it really well when he said he would be 'great for news ratings'. It was rubbish, and a lot of people tuned in, it brought in a lot of money.

Add in the economics brought on by the Internet and we have a real problem.
> According to Jacob's mother Sally, her eldest child – who is one of three, with siblings aged 14 and nine – is 'an independent thinker' and has been 'brought up to appreciate the value of natural immunity'.

So, in other words, he’s simply repeating back what his parents raised him with. No dig on him, he’s only a kid and that’s normal, but it makes sense he would find what he wants in whatever data he dug up.

I see these articles that try to make it seem like there’s some groundswell of people refusing the vaccine (such as using the stock photo of a giant room full of young people) when the reality is that they are largely fringe thinkers. There are a fair number of people who are frightened by it from articles like this, but I don’t personally count them among the hardcore anti-vaccine people interviewed in this article.

That should be fine. Forwarding means you’ll become the sender so the SPF record of the original sender will no longer apply.
>>That was over 2 weeks ago. As of August 15th there are now 1,900 children hospitalized with COVID in the US. There are many states that are just starting to experience the delta surge. The US delta wave is not projected to peak until September/October.

How much of that hospitalization is driven by over-concerned parents being driven by exactly the kind of hysteria that we've seen fanned in this discussion, to admit their children when they get sick? How much of it is driven by RSV, which is surging:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2021/08/13/children-ho...

>>Combined with a highly unusual spike in the number of children admitted with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a flu-like illness that usually strikes in the winter, and parainfluenza viruses — and in some cases, co-infections with covid-19 — many children’s hospitals are overwhelmed.

Something similar is happening in New Zealand, where there is no covid, as children pay an immunity debt:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jul/08/new-zealand-ch...

The fact is, there have been only 292 deaths with positive covid status, in the 5-18 age group in the US throughout the entirety of the covid epidemic:

https://data.cdc.gov/NCHS/Provisional-COVID-19-Deaths-Focus-...

That is not a large enough number to justify masking tens of millions of children for much of every day, for two years, when the most likely effect of masking is going to only be to delay contraction of the virus, rather than prevent it altogether.

>>Also, if you're going to compare outcomes between England and US you absolutely have to compare policy and vax rate. Nearly 90% of adults in UK have had at least one shot compared to 70% in the US. In some individual states it's more like 50%. This is why per capita caseload in the US is significantly higher. Higher caseload means a greater number of children will get sick.

I would consider it if the number of children dying from covid delta wasn't ~0 in the entirety of England with a population 55 million. That tells us the risk is extremely small, and won't become significant even if the case load increases by several fold.
It's part of the requirements, but that doesn't guarantee it will happen. Equipment can fail to operate correctly (or be misconfigured) and you still need to verify that the power is correctly isolated before doing work on potentially live conductors.

If you are a Facebook user, there's a good chance you are manipulated by what you see there. Everyone denies it affects them (as I might, if I used Facebook), but it works. I trust the people who say they are vulnerable to manipulation - at least they give themselves a chance.

Facebook manipulates people you know (unless none of them use Facebook). Social media has dramatically changed some people I know well.

Facebook has enormous influence in the society you live in (perhaps depending on where you live), which affects you. Facebook has great power over the news people read, and Facebook is where many conspiracy theories spread, as examples.
