The difference is huge. Apple’s proposed system scans everyone’s(who uses iCloud) photos and reports them to the authorities(with Apple being a proxy). It’s a snitch/God system.

On my proposal, all photos on the device are scanned, scan results(hashes) are stored on device but no attempts to pin you down are made. Once there’s a reason to suspect that you might be a criminal, only then the scan results are evaluated by the phone upon the request of the authorities to check on you as part of the investigation. This is blackbox system.

If you'd like to learn more about what's in Rust 2021, there will eventually be a blog post when it hits stable, but the edition guide has the details: https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/edition-guide/rust-2021/in...

This edition is deliberately "small" compared to Rust 2018, which was very large. That doesn't mean it wasn't a ton of work, as you can obviously see from the number of people and work done in this post, but it is more "quality of life changes" than "major new syntax and huge new features." More "stuff I expected to work that used to not work now works" and less "I need to learn this new shiny thing." Those of you who have been waiting for Rust to slow down a bit, this is one example of how that's happening.
The page title says "Page Not Found" which would make you think it's a 404, the page body says "500 Oh, no! Something went wrong on our side." But the actual HTTP response is 200 OK.

The entire /blog section has a flash of content and then is replaced with the error message. If you view the source, you can still find the content.

Oh, but if I turn off uBlock Origin and the analytics.js and newsletter-signup.js/css are allowed to load then the page loads fine. Interesting!

For sure. It’s the bunch people it hit when it got loose here. It was just the first thing that came to mind when the “I’m young and healthy” argument popped up.

It’s quite early in the piece for good data, but ‘younger, sicker, quicker’ seems to be the takeaway.
The probability you care about is the probability that your transaction will be reversed by chain rewriting. The cost of chain rewriting is the amount of work it would take to make a longer chain starting from the block before your transaction. However, chain length is simply a proxy for the amount of work done, because each block has the same difficulty (except at a difficulty adjustment).

The number of blocks or speed of blocks is not the relevant measure. The number that matters is the total accumulated work proved in the blocks. Dogecoin has faster blocks and more blocks than Bitcoin but it is not more secure. Its difficulty is much lower, so each block proves much less work, and rewriting its chain is therefore easier.
It's pretty normal to be offered freshly stolen meat and other high value food in pubs, in poor neighborhoods. It's happened to me lots of times. There very much is a secondary food market.
Yes, but it might be easier to work with while producing a different carbon based material.
It's like Chrome, but better in pretty much every way. Never thought I'd say this but Edge is actually pretty good!

Very frequent and large feature updates, deepening ecosystem integration that uncharacteristically doesn't get the way if you don't use it.

I always get a bit anxious when one of these massive enterprises suddenly gets up and starts moving with newfound focus, and MS is pretty much sprinting on Adderall at this point.
"So now the question is in what 15.X update do they just sneak it in."

I think they cannot really sneak it in. Some people do read updated TOS.
And I think a "featurechange" like this, requires one.

And yes, the question will be, if the broad attention to the topic can be brought back on to it, if that happens. And they clearly say it will come, only with some "improvements" (but I cannot think of any improvements, that can be made, without abondoning the basic concept):

"we have decided to take additional time over the coming months to collect input and make improvements before releasing these critically important child safety features"
> Especially on todays CPU’s I fail to see why would we consider C anything close to truly low level.

It's effectively the lowest you can go without throwing portability out the window. It doesn't let you manage caches directly, but it gives you good control over memory layout in general, and that's often enough to give you good cache usage across a variety of chips.

If you want to go lower than that, you're probably looking for assembly.
So a hypospray?
This is the way. Sadly, it never took off.

DDD is another great approach that never entered mainstream.
lol yea, I had to reread that but still

I've kicked around the idea that project manager should be a very low level job. Like first job out of college or maybe high school. The job would be: make sure the current state of the project is reflected in our software. No predicting the future (burndown, gantt), no changing the future (make sure it gets done on time) and no responsibility without authority trap. I think one person could support a very large project (or more smaller ones) this way.

And why do it? So proper data is in the project management tool. Then people with the actual correct responsibility/authority/expertise can make good decisions based on good data.

Also cuts down on interruptions. You go from quadratic communication (M stakeholders pinging N engineers) to linear (M stakeholders consuming 1 feed that's fed by N engineers). In theory, everyone just keeping their tickets up-to-date would get rid of that need. History has shown that doesn't work. Also a sufficiently smart tool would cover it, but it hasn't been made yet. Maybe a 20-year-old who sits in on meetings, gets a notification for every PR state change and nicely asks people how things are going would do a better job.
You can use the "buncha-files-ina-folder paradigm" on Linux and Unix as well, but generally, applications are written with the assumption that they will be installed at a particular location, and can unexpectedly fail if you put them elsewhere.

The RPM Package Manager itself is an example of this. It can be configured to be installed to a custom location via the build system, but it has hard-coded paths in some scripts so the package manager would break when it hits this code months after appearing to work correctly.
Nah, a big section of the class you take to get your LTC (we don't have a CCW) covers just how screwed you would be if you did so.

...but...theres dumb people everywhere, so when you decide to shop lift in Texas the risk profile is certainly different than it is in CA.
I don't think a single part of your comment is true.

ASCE, ASTM, and other professional orgs have non-arbitrary definitions. They are all versions of some measure of deformation at ultimate strength, but don't correlate to that strength value.

Crackers are brittle. Structural steel is not.
Build a cheap PC with linux, you can do everything a Nas does and much, much more. Way more powerful and you can upgrade to dozens of hard drives. That's what I did some months ago.

this changed my life with my three-monitor setup (1 portrait, 2 landscape) at work when I discovered it a few months ago! I can't imagine going back to life without it now, it's so useful.
collect calls FromIterator, so:

let five_fives = std::iter::repeat(5).take(5);

// this:
let v: Vec<i32> = five_fives.collect();

// is equivalent to this
use std::iter::FromIterator;

let v = Vec::from_iter(five_fives);

if you prefer a function-like form.
The 2021 edition, while a breaking change, will affect only a tiny amount of code. Most crates will be able to put `edition = "2021"` into Cargo.toml without any other modiciations. Only some relatively minor parsing and semantics changes were introduced. It's not nearly as big as the 2018 edition, which brought big changes to the module and macro system.

Mostly some quality of life improvements.

Also note that the Rust compiler remains backwards compatible and continues to support all previous editions. (well, it's only 2015 and 2018 for now)

Lot's of work is put into the compiler, but a lot of it is refinement and plumbing at the moment. Big feature work has slowed down a lot (which is probably a good thing).

But as some positive news: GAT (generic associated types, a more restrictive variant of higher kinded types) are apparently nearing completion, which can also unblock some very important improvements for the async world (eg `async fn` in traits).

I do still really miss some big features though: async in traits, a more flexible dynamic trait system (multi-trait objects, downcasting), generators and specialization.

They might be the fanciest or laden with trendy buzzwords, but when it comes to building functional, pleasant to use apps, UIKit and AppKit are still hard to beat. If they became deployable on other platforms (Android and Windows/Linux, respectively) I don’t think I’d ever use anything else.

Is there? It's just running a blinded hashing and private set intersection locally, doesn't even know on device whether something has matched or what.
Yes there are but they probably aren't very high, they're most likely toking as in slightly buzzed if we were comparing it alcohol. I guess you'd notice drunk people and you'd notice very high pot smokers. But would you mind a coworker having a glass of wine for lunch?

There are long term pot smokers whose intake is very large but whose tolerance has risen such that when they consume they're quite functional. They are usually easy to spot though...
Diamond can be doped - I think with Boron and has very high thermal conductivity. Diamond semiconductors are also hard to grow.
The dropping of “how” is HN’s helpful title mangler at work.
And many top politicians, business executives, authors, producers, and musicians were alcoholics. Your claim of having met high performing pot smokers is meaningless.
I think you're seeing a slightly different narrative. 4chan decided to make people upset about the hand sign, some major news networks obediently expressed outrage, and a whole lot of people who actively dislike said news channels discovered a whole new way to generate headlines.
Wow. Starting your argument with an ad hominem attack qualifies you as one of those people I will never ever want to work with.
I think that you have this impression because you are comparing the inside of a professional environment with the outside of others. I'm pretty sure that in inner circles of other professions they speak trash of others, but you don't see it from the outside, just like a random Joe won't never read HN whrrry devs speak trash of other devs
A political war of all against all massively raises the costs of expressing a viewpoint which other people don't like. That makes it harder to participate in the political process, and easier for the powers that be to discourage any political participating which they find inconvenient.

(As a commenter says above though, I do think that in this particular case the takedown was probably not politically motivated.)
Barely. You've been able to upgrade for free for at least 10 years, and even a new license is like £30.

It's not surprising they're trying to add adverts. Sucks though.
Knowing little about other use-cases, i would guess sending 1,2,4,8, ~12 is well within bandwidth budget for all people running traceroute.

I did clarify with the edit.
>It's not perfectly valid if the purpose is to have a discussion that's meaningful to other people who don't have your exact set of preferences and pecadilloes. Saying you don't like a logo isn't a useful piece of information because for 99% of people that's not going to be a reason to use or not use a piece of software. Either you don't realize that or you're being willfully combative for its own sake.

While I disagree strongly with GP, your argument seems to completely miss their point. GP expressed her opinion as to the utility/viability of Linux for their use case.

We both disagree with GP's arguments, but even we almost certainly don't share the same "set of preferences and pecadilloes."

Mostly, I think it's pretty closed-minded to denigrate someone who expresses an opinion (unrelated to facts presented in an objective reality).

Give the GP a break. If their "preferences and pecadilloes" don't match yours, why is that any skin off your nose? As such, why do you feel it necessary to belittle the opinion of some rando on the 'net?

I'll say it again just to make sure you understand that it's your tone and attitude that disturbs me and not the content of your argument: widespread use of package managers have completely changed Linux for the better IMHO. What's more, I find the arguments provided by GP to be both weak and unpersuasive.
Right, theoretically Linux applications can work this way, there's even AppImage to really prove the point. The problem is that basically nothing in the Linux world does do that because it just isn't the way things are done.

At the end of the day, it's the same difference to me.
Well, $300k/yr might sound like a lot at first glance but isn't much if you have to split between "myself, my wife Heather, a small group of core developers..."
That was Wunderlist. I used that first, until they killed it. Then I switched to Todoist, so I second the OP's recommendation!

That does not make any sense. You are projecting own feelings into speaker and then claiming speaker somehow want you to have those feelings.
> What was upheld is you cannot enforce an artist to do work for you against their own opinions.

That was not the decision, though it appears to be a common misconception. The decision was that the Colorado Civil Rights Commission had exhibited hostility towards religion and that wasn't allowed. They didn't rule on free speech grounds.
Not modern body armor. You want lots of deformation before failure, which is almost the opposite of brittle.

Like the crush zone of a car.
I think the same. It's so typical everyone here tries to pin characteristics to exact professional groups. The amount of anecdotal evidence here is too damn high.
?
In your 1st paragraph, you praise Win7 as "rock solid," and in the 2nd, you point out the incredibly lame and showstopping bugs in their SHIT updater which show just how jello solid their OS is. I have the same types of updater issues on Win10 boxes I have to support. I assume that the new clusterfuck will be more of the same.
RMS is wrong on this one. You can't come anywhere close to sustaining development on that model.
That one and "there are old mushroom hunters and bold mushroom hunters, but no old, bold mushroom hunters" get told about once per day per thousand people in any online mushroom group.
Yes, and it was a shit thing when Ubuntu did it too.

Literally drove the creator of Kubuntu out of the project on trumped up bullshit when he wouldn't play along (and also kept asking questions about the 120k of donations that went missing ...)
It is an amazing way to show how paranoid people are over "dogwhistles." Witches are everywhere!
That was an extreme example to refute your point that a lack of consent invalidates the usage of the term "exchange"
Is this project still active? It looks like it hasn't been updated in at least 2 years.
Correct. Perhaps the study addresses this somehow, but I'm not paying 30 bucks to find out there was no causal analysis.

The performance non-goal is there to lower expectations compared to compiled Clojure. Babashka's author (me) does try to make it as fast as possible within the constraints it's implemented in.
I wrote "Hacking Healthcare" for O'Reilly, which is still in print after 10 years, amongst others. My intention in writing it was never pecuniary but to hopefully encourage smart technology people to enter healthcare. It has sold more copies than many popular authors I read who seem much more "bestselling", which always surprises me.

It is my opinion that piracy has helped that book much more than it has hurt it. It is very widely pirated in torrents in non-us countries from what I can tell from google searches and a longstanding history of emails to the effect "hey your book is being pirated [here]". I sincerely doubt that the overwhelming majority of people who pirate that work did so instead of purchasing it.
Yes, add caffeine...

Hippie speedball.
I certainly consider it a good piece of software. It does more things across more environments than its competitors.

I have and regularly use machines with all the major desktop platforms in my house - Windows, OS X, Linux, Chrome OS. While I cycle between them, I strongly prefer the Windows machines. The alternatives are all are missing all sorts of window management things such as snapping to screen quadrants and multimon borders, keyboard shortcuts for moving and snapping windows. Monitors with different DPIs is a challenge on Mac and hopeless on Linux. There are all sorts of UI affordances in Windows to do things like open new copies of an app (middle click on the taskbar icon), close an app (middle click on the taskbar preview), and so on.

There are a number of changes I strongly disagree with in Windows 11 such as removing the ability to put the taskbar on the side, but as a whole I still think the Windows desktop is an excellent piece of software that's significantly more usable than the alternatives.
It's possible GPL was the wrong choice of license for all that software in that circumstance. How has Linux managed to survive, isn't it licensed as GPL?
They were able to move here and there quite quickly, adjusted trajectory in the most efficient way possible. They commonly gather together in large groups. They are...dried up leaves blowing in the wind. Now if you think dried up leaves are smart, wait till you hear about mushrooms...
It's sad that 90%+ of these deaths are entirely preventable.
Upvoted. I don't agree, but you make a reasonable argument and I don't think you should be downvoted.

Back to the issue, even poor states have more considerations than price.

First, they want effective vaccines. That means they need to be approved/adopted by some influential states, since poor states don't have widely trusted FDAs.

Second, even poor states have antivax (we can blame whatsapp and facebook for this). The people in charge of imports must want to make sure the vaccine is accepted, which points us at the same direction (they want to be able to say 'even big state like X uses this vaccine!' and avoid 'scary' new tech).

The West has mRNA and won't want to have even more antivax due to scary name. Russia/China seem uninterested in the tech. That leaves us with India, which is a large enough market for the manufacturer (Zydus Cadila) to make profit, but alas is not wealthy or influential enough to win worldwide acceptance by itself.

Summary: I don't think new tech can be pushed via COVAX alone when there are alternatives, even if it wins on price (which is far from assured).

Do you think it would be accurate to say that functionally or effectively bans competing engines by forbidding a major component? I believe Mozilla or Google would prioritize including their own engine if it was reasonably possible.
No, obviously not. But if you scanned the book, put it on archive.is and invited all the visitors to Hacker News to read it I think that might be copyright infringement. IANAL so setting the precise legality aside, in terms of economic harm (which many here have brought up regarding shoplifting), how is this different?
How recent? Posts like "FBI can't find hackers" have been frontpaging for years but people who have responded to the ads say they were dismissed at the clearance step or advised to not continue due to it.
Similar, but different: I'd recommend assembling your own machine (you get to pick your own case), Supermicro A2SDI for a low power motherboard, CRS326/CRS328/CRS309/CRS317 for switches (listed in increasing number of 10GbE ports), and routing on the A2SDI or another low power amd64 board.

Storage wise I'd either shrink your requirements for simplicity (eg two 14TB spindles in a simple mirror), or go for larger capacity with larger drives. 6TB drives seem small for a new deployment. Also, I'd do more than raidz1 to prevent against cascading failures on rebuild.

I'm coming from a different place where I view vanilla Linux as a positive (hence the router), but my constraints give you a different datapoint to consider. If I could find an inexpensive quiet 10GbE switch that was OpenFlow capable to punt switching policy to my Linux router, I'd be using that instead of Mikrotik.
The training is just doing the job; it isn't something you can learn in school.
Why on earth would you jump straight to that conclusion? Even if the firearm was drawn, which is a huge if assuming the carrier was attacked, almost all defensive gun uses end before a shot is fired.

Someone carrying a firearm should be more willing to nonviolently confront a thief than someone that's unarmed.
