How about we get mad about the fact that the top .01% wealthiest people are stripping the country for profits, using the military as a mercenary force to grab other countries oil reserves, and wrecking the climate and leaving us to die, rather than this vacuous culture wars bullshit?

Meanwhile the fed prints trillions and trillions of dollars and shoves it directly into the stock market while millions of people have no health insurance in the middle of a pandemic. The whole economy, long since deindustrialized, is only limping on because as the holder of the world reserve currency we can print unlimited amounts of money- for now. But of course we don’t use that power to build a modern infrastructure or provide free college to the next generation. Oh no. We use it to make sure that asset bubbles are pushed into infinity. Which will only make the inevitable crash all the more devastating.

We have real, actual problems but this wokeness crisis isn’t one of them.
Apparently there's a Kei truck for sale right now on SFBay Craigslist:

That is definitely not a possible interpretation:

> to produce highly secure, highly optimized code.

The key word there is "produce" - meaning, the secure and optimized code is being written.
If that's meant to be a justification of relevancy, it's quite a stretch.
It seems like this is an argument for “reeducating” the faculty, not the students…
True, so turn off auto updates. Your device.

There is a weird mistrust of Apple here, despite them doing nothing to betray it
Running 6 days a week. I don't know if that's "simple" - but basically I have an addictive personality, it's hard for me to do anything casually, its either all or nothing. So I've turned that into a benefit by being very strict about never making excuses and getting out every day. Now it's a habit that at least somewhat counterbalances all my other bad habits
Violating a state statute is still illegal by definition, even if the remedy provided is civil rather than criminal. That makes the Crime Stoppers comparison still pretty fair, in my opinion.

And no, the Supreme Court didn't decide that, the people bringing the suit failed on procedural grounds and will get a chance to argue the merits when they re-file properly. My guess is that this whole thing will be a tempest in a teacup that will get sorted out in short order.
At least tourette's is involuntary.
Well, my dreams are usually surreal, so yes :p
I’m wondering if this is a modern extension of the old “psych-101 syndrome”. Where undergrads, upon learning of the existence of various mental health diagnoses, suddenly realize they too are OCD or have depression, etc…
I didn’t know that. It sort of has the effect of sounding like the voice of amorphous global capital is speaking directly to you and also that global capital writes at about the level of a high school senior.
I have 100+ crons & I don't want to write some specific logic in my code for handling this, now what? would you mind sharing your thoughts on the same?
By the way, Victorian-era women were allowed to take abortion herbs whenever they wanted to (well, before quickening).

We are more regressive in this way that people from the 19th century. Great.
Never underestimate the behavioral complexity of rocks!

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

>Sailing stones (also called sliding rocks, walking rocks, rolling stones, and moving rocks) are part of the geological phenomenon in which rocks move and inscribe long tracks along a smooth valley floor without animal intervention. The movement of the rocks occurs when large sheets of ice a few millimeters thick and floating in an ephemeral winter pond break up on sunny days. Frozen during cold winter nights, these thin, floating ice panels are driven by wind and shove rocks at speeds up to 5 meters per minute.

The three types of pet rocks are: ingenius, sentimentalary, and anthropomorphic.

I invented and implemented a pie menu remote control touch screen interface on the PocketPC for sending commands to pet rocks (and it also works with many feral rocks):

Pet Rock Remote Control:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SG0FAKkaisg&ab_channel=DonHo...

The essential key to successfully training happy and obedient pet rocks is to repeatedly and consistently give them commands they can perform well, like "Sit", "Stay", "Play Dead", "Roll Over", "Gather Moss", and lots of positive reinforcement immediately after they obey what you tell them to do: "Good Rock!"
I used FreeNAS for several years and it was fine. I did feel like ZFS needed to be my hobby though. (The internet may have done me a disservice there)

We bought a Synology 1813+ many years ago. I run whatever Synology’s custom RAID 6(?) solution is. We have 2 disks of redundancy, and haven’t filled all the bays. (We’re at 6/8 at 8TB total)

I’m very happy with it. We use it for local backups. I’ve swapped a few failed drives (it was easy) I run a Plex server and a photo management server on it.

I used to worry about drive portability because of the proprietary RAID. I put that aside and I’ve been happy ever since. The Portability issue hasn’t ever been a thing because I haven’t ever needed to go anywhere.
So your response to a person with brown skin say that their experience doesn't matter? Why doesn't it matter because you read that they where lucky or that you experienced something different?
> Do you really think you can cast a vote by _NOT buying_ an iPhone

Isn't that how any vote works? My ballot is one of several hundred million - statistically meaningless by itself. But it is a vote. And if enough people vote, the millions of statistically meaningless datapoints become meaningful.

And in the end, even if my single wallet-vote is meaningless, I'm no longer affected by what Apple chooses to do with their phones. A successful vote, IMO.
Thank you so much for introducing me to that article. It's fantastic! I've made this comparison forever, and used a lot of the same arguments -- I wish I had written this!
Thanks for sharing. I will definitely look into this.
Yes. The Big Teeth... they're after me, they're after me, aaaaarrrggghhh... and I'm caught in the weeds tangling and strangling me. And the mud, ach, the MUD, and I'm sinking into the stinking ooze and I can't get out and oh god I need to pee and I'm running and running but the teeth, the TEEEETH...
If you haven’t, I urge you to watch The Crime Of The Century on HBO. The title is not hyperbolic, and this outcome speaks to just how unequal justice is for the wealthy.
I dont really get your analogy; thats not the argument being made here. An initial offering industry/mechanism isnt going anywhere, it will just likely gradually shift from IPO to ICO. The reason bankers make absurd fees from IPO's isnt from their due diligence, its from market access. Thats coming to an end.
Huh, looks like a modern-day WinHelp. That looks like it's moving in the wrong direction though. I doubt many people want a big completely offline doc blob in this day and age.
You've set up a strawman with no relevance to what I originally wrote, and use that to imply I've suggested something I never have.
Yeah. I always think back to an offhand quip by Douglas Adams in the Dirk Gently book when I see people complaining about this.

"... nearly two thousand years after one man had been nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to people for a change,"
This is not a delay, it's anoffensive to build up support - just look at the headlines:

"Apple delays child abuse detection"
"Apple delays plan to scan iPhones for child exploitation images"
"Apple Delays Rollout of Child Safety Features"

None headlines I could find pronounce that Apple is delaying their spying tool. None of the media seem to be on board with that characterization.
Somewhat similar are “moped cars” which can be driven with a moped license in many European countries. This can bring the age when youth can drive down to 15 or 16 years old.

Most of the manufacturers I am familiar with are French, and lots of 15 year olds drive them in Sweden.

They have tiny Diesel engines and are limited to two seats, very light weight and max 45kph.

I’m Sweden there is another class of car where you convert a normal sized car into something that is legally a tractor. These can also be driven at 15 years old, and are limited to just 30kph but are much cheaper than moped cars.
Honestly here is what I would recommend:

1) if your app is more of an "app" - use a low code platform like bubble to develop the app. This will help you learn technical concepts and work out some of your idea.

2) if your idea is more "content based" (like blog or directory with filters), use Webflow

3) if your idea is a game, learn unity or unreal.

You basically have to become much more technical to be helpful to your startup at the beginning. I think "learning to code" is a good answer, but realistically if you want to sort of figure things out in the next 1-2 years, these other approaches are the best ones to work.

I also think you will have a dramatically easier time getting a technical co founder of you have a prototype, can share your vision, and also be a better product manager. It's very hard for completely non technical people to contribute to technical development.
Without dysphoria the trans crowd is no different than otherkin or that Rachel Dozel woman.
The gain is, an Apple user can assume that Apple is not scanning their photo library for csam. Because the only time Apple start scanning is if the device gets 30 positive hash matches.

Where as if they used another service, all their photos will be scanned all the time.

There is a clear privacy gain here
I think it’s often due to people using private IP addresses for intermediate nodes, to save on ipv4 addresses.

Does anyone have any articles about where the attention has shifted?
I've been wanting a Kei mini truck for around the farm here. Just for picking up lumber, manure, etc. no long highway trips. Just mostly local and on the property. The sides on a Kei truck generally drop for easy loading and unloading, they're fuel efficient, they're easy to park, easy move through a lumberyard, and their wheels are centred further back so they actually handle bigger loads than you'd think at first. And they're neat. And look easy to work on. And I bet I could do a fairly cheap EV conversion without a lot of hassle, to add to the 500 other unfinished projects I have here.

The problem is that by the time they're imported and everything else they end up being at least $10k CAD for a 20+ year old vehicle.

I don't want a big pickup truck. They're too big and not as practical. None of the domestic manufacturers make anything reasonably sized. In the 90s my parents got my sister and I a crappy old 84 Ford Ranger and that was totally fine. Nothing that small exists anymore. The new Ford Ranger is a truckosaurus like everything else.

I wish the North American appetite for Canyonero(tm) would stop already.
Yes, related to their area of business. What is “cold” about making profits to you? Personally, the locus of morality is my religious/ethnic community. Businesses should focus on making money so they can pay people who can use that money to be moral in their own communities.
I'm curious whether dukeofdoom's post will be removed. It's an offensive take, to be sure, but I wonder if it's over the line of what hnews is able to tolerate these days.

What about the parent's comment was "anti-trans rhetoric?" Is the New Yorker article "anti-Tourette's rhetoric?"
People who compare the entire US to Sweden and Finland never think to compare Mississippi to Albania.
That looks like a Snow Crash reference (Neal Stephenson). Absolutely worth a re-read if you want to explore this scenario.

That's a problem with social networks at large. At least before the stupid or degenerate were ashamed of themselves. Now everybody can find a circus of freaks to belong to, which makes them believe their behaviour to be appropriate.
They're smart, not insane. They have figured out how to use YouTube to monetize the "everything is valid" wave.
I've been pondering the idea of an offline-first experience on a laptop for my own mental health for a while. I feel like computing was just so much better without the internet as a distraction. Who is in?
A "Merit lottery" is a half measure when a true lottery is the least discriminatory way to go about things. Every position within society should just be to do a true lottery everywhere such an idea can be applied.

Water treatment plant workers? President? Honors program students? All of these roles are subject to countless forms of discrimination against people for lacking intelligence, lacking the right identity, lacking educational attainment, lacking all sorts of things.
>The system is designed as if iCloud photos is already E2EE. It's not currently,

and it will never ever be E2E because of the US laws or if it will be ever encrypted it will use the backdoored NSA crypto (and Apple PR not even tried to hint at it to calm down the waters).

I agree the algorithm is prety clever but it feels that is not designed to solve the CSAM problem but to look good on someone CV.

Now you have the worst of both worlds, Apple has access to your photos on the server(and if they would respect the laws they should scan them for CSAM already since they are responsible on what they store and share (I mean when you share stuff)) and Apple has a scanning program inside your phone.
Yes, she frequents chinese online forums and writes todo lists in Chinese
I wrote yet another "rss to email" tools, which is what I use for consuming feeds:

https://github.com/skx/rss2email/

Getting feeds into email means I have the local content available for searching, and am not tied to desktop/mobile, or a particular machine.

(Rewritten in go, primarily because the standard r2e was the last daemon/program on my host that required python. So switching let me drop a whole bunch of dependencies.)
The Supreme court hasn’t actually ruled on whether this is constitutional or not, this was just a preliminary injunction.
It could just be that HN had an article on people finding a trendy malady and I posted a factual comment about other people finding a trendy malady.

There doesn’t need to be a conspiracy, nor is mentioning this occurrence “anti trans”.
Because the alternative is to scan all the images on the server. With the hash scanner only hash matches are scanned. All the other images are kept private.
We used Back Orifice on a co-worker’s machine in a call center I worked at. While he was working we would open and close his CD-ROM drive randomly. Restart his machine. All the while we’re four seats down just cackling and he’s turning redder and redder as his machine does all these weird things while he’s trying to work.
> Worth also noticing that it comes from the USA where justice is punishment and vindication for the victim. It's why victims and their families are invited to be present when a criminal is killed via the death penalty, and ex cons can't vote. Eye for an eye is very American.

I hadn't thought of it from that angle, but it fits.
HN claims to be ideology free but every third article is this kinda nonsense from The Economist.

And they shadow ban anybody who dissents. Tech bro culture is the worst.
The issue with FIPS compliance is with Anchore. It's actually fixed in 10.2, but that version is not yet in Iron Bank, so delaying deployment to IL5.

The issue with Iron Bank itself is a lot more structural. We report it every time a specific container breaks, and it eventually gets fixed on a report-by-report basis, but the base issue is they're doing two things completely wrong:

1) The process requiring disconnected builds in the container build stage to avoid pulling in dependencies from the Internet, combined with lack of expertise on the part of people assigned to the container hardening teams in terms of how to actually build software, results in them usually copying down the upstream official container, and making a naive copy of the desired executable from that container into a UBI base image. That happens to work for dynamically linked executables when the upstream and UBI have the same glibc version, usually right after a UBI release. Then it later breaks spectacularly, and when the issue is explained to Iron Bank engineers, they don't understand and simply call it fixed when UBI releases again and glibc is aligned by chance with upstream.

2) They push functional changes to tags. You can pull some <image>:8.4 one day, and the next day the exactly same tag will have different environment variables set, different paths, will have executables removed (notably, the jq image used to include aws-cli for some reason, which it shouldn't have, but once it did, you can't just remove it). Normally, the fix for this is pin to a sha instead of the tag, but Harbor doesn't hold onto the shas once you have republished to the same tag five times, and Iron Bank is continuously rebuilding those tags. We've reported it and Iron Bank technical leadership is at least aware this is a problem, but figuring out how to fix it has never been a priority for them.

>A similar one I just became aware of is Dissociative Identity Disorder, or multiple personality disorder.

Is it really crossing over into a MPD however? Voice dialogue is a therapeutic modality where you take a 2nd person perspective on your psyche components in addition to 1st/3rd person. There's something to it but it's not MPD. The most popular example is the "inner child" complex which people often reconnect with when they empathize with their own child.
>Also, everything except expressways have a speed limit of 60, so you can use it no problem.

Not sure where in Japan you've been driving, but my experience is that sticking to the posted speed limit on most roads makes you a hazard to navigation - particularly outside of cities.
For those not from the NT era the name derives from Microsoft Back Office https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_BackOffice_Server
They are sketchy. I had to use them in 2011 because a club I was in decided to use them for their website. Their web portal was designed to make using your products as difficult as possible, and buying new products as easy as possible. The interface changed frequently, always in favor of making it easy to buy new products from them.

They have been well marketed for years. If someone wants a website, they think goDaddy. Most people cannot deal with the concept of domain name registrars and http servers. They want a one stop shop, pay several dollars to a year, have a web site, and then forget about the whole thing.
Preschool kids usually pick up foreign languages even faster.

Was your nephew in an English speaking preschool in Croatia?
Yup, same, but I don't really remember HN ever being pro-trans. It's just talked about more.
I can see the "why is this different than a wedding cake for gay couples" argument. It's a reasonable point. But I can see why it's not the same.

Making a cake is a one-time interaction. Sexual orientation is similar to race in the respect of expected protections from discrimination. Apply the same wedding cake refusal for racial reasons and it's obvious this is discrimination.

On the other hand, being a domain registrar means a continued involvement in the act being discussed- running this website. GoDaddy are not just selling a one time transaction, they're an active, paid participant. They're service must continue to exist for the website to work, so long as they are the registrar.

And what the website is doing is not protected by law.

What really decides these things though is that GoDaddy needs to answer to their shareholders. How many customers will leave if they choose not to do business with this website? How many customers will leave if they do continue to do business with this website?

In the end, it always comes down to money.
And people back in the day were allowed to own slaves, yet we don’t look back on that an argue that we’ve regressed. Perhaps some day society will look back on abortions with the same disgust as we see slavery today.
And most people think scientists are wonderful and know everything all the time.
The difference is that political opinions are not a protected class, while race, gender is. What is the justification for having protected classes? You can pick your opinions, but you can't pick to be a different gender.
>They didn't even want to add `var` to the language until recently, and let's not even go to the anonymous class vs lambdas retardation.

This realization is always endlessly infuriating to me as someone who was taught way to much Java in Uni, and had to intensionally push myself into other languages to realize why simple things like higher-order functions were subjugated under the tyranny of classes in java.

But far worse than that is the absolutely abysmal and destructive philosophy around types in java. Just mash em together with namespaces and classes, and then nerf type inference to the point that it couldn’t infer what is literally the most trivial reflexion-based equality: “Object o = New Object()”.
Their motto was actually "don't be evil," but the shine wore off that apple pretty quick. It was dropped shortly after the dotcom explosion.
The idea is quite simple, when you give money to people with no income money they spend it which then makes other people work who then have money who then can spend money to hire the person that was originally receiving the free money.

It's only a temporary measure. Nobody ever thought that it should stay this way forever.
