You would still login to your password manager using a (human memorable) password, so that would still count as something that you know ;) (it's true though that many password managers will allow you to use some second factor to login)
In truth, I'm a panpsychist so I don't actually believe that machines (or anything else for that matter) doesn't have an experience of reality.

What I find odd is that you don't recognizing the difference at all between the conception of a p-zombie (an automaton with no experience of reality) and your own experience of reality. Typically we use machines as an example because most people would say that, unlike with people, machines don't really think, or feel, or suffer, so we there are never any moral considerations for dealing with them. Dark Mirror likes to demonstrate this common belief frequently in its episodes about "cookies", or people who are replicated in technology: "it's just code". Given that most people make the distinction, it is usually sufficient to point out that empiricism can make no measurement to determine the difference between an entity that experiences the world, and one that is an automaton.

You're purely materialist way of looking at things, where consciousness is a product of being a sufficiently complex system still begs the question: how complex? Again, I do not think there is any satisfactory empirical definition.

In my personal experience, consuming a deficit below TDEE without concerning macros isn't enough to consistently achieve my weight loss goals.

I track everything using myfitnesspal and there's a strong correlation in my weightless during periods where I make an effort to consume around 30% of calories from protein. During less strict periods, my protein intake is usually around 20%. While my calories consumed remains the same, the higher protein diet is far more effective for weight/fatloss.

Interesting. I've had the opposite experience. Stripe is my favorite company, and I look to them constantly as inspiration for how to do things in my business, but their support is comically bad -- wrong, clueless, and, in some cases, actively misleading.

The developer chat room is awesome and helpful. Maybe that's what you're talking about?
It's also because the FIPS builds of OpenSSL 1.x identified themselves as 2.x.

Even with HVDC I'm very sceptical that we'll soon see enough transmission capacity (electrical) from northern africa to europe or other regions in the world for that to become a relevant part of the eurafrican grid.

Why? Because we'd need lots of these.

Take this project as a reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Hami%E2%80%93Zhengzho...

Capacity: 8 GW
Cost: ~ 3 billion EUR

Assuming 10 kW each, with one such HVDC connection you could charge/discharge 800000 cars simultaneously. That is quite a lot less than the current number of cars and 10 kW is a lot less than the charging speeds which are currently being offered.
> If you have single income households, and all of a sudden everyone's a double income households, you're not any better off. You'll get inflation, especially in housing.

?? The growth in output would offset the increase in dollars bidding for the same goods - ie. more people working would mean more supply and also more $$ bidding for goods.

Seems absurd to say "you're not any better off."
Now in retrospect some workstation vendors could maybe have survived a little more by switching to x86 PC like hardware except the window for doing the switch was astonishingly small and they would have transformed to either a random OS vendor, or a random PC hardware vendor, or even both

I think this window was non-existent: Moore’s Law at the time was turning white boxes into workstations faster than any time-and-money consuming custom engineering could pay back the investment.
You wanted to refute a claim about what happened in 2020 by bringing readers back to 2007, while omitting any mention of the prison term and rehabilitation but articulating the need to put violent criminals in prison.

Then you say you were responding to disingenuity? Sorry, no sale.
That's for bigger solar installations. A 2kW system would cost about $4k after tax credit and it would probably save you a lot more energy.

And how many years will the paint last?
> Those of us with the wherewithal to use random garbage backed by password managers

...have documented all of the sites we visit and all of the authentication for them in one convenient package?

Don't get me wrong, I use a password manager too but it's mostly because of the inconsistent password requirements most sites have making using the same password for all of them impossible.

If someone compromises my password manager then they have access to even more information than if they had a single password for all the sites I use.
I find it interesting that there's stuff redacted from 7 and the header, and that the references are also blanked. The numbers (without further metadata) are not really tells on their own (close enough I guess).

It's just a straightforward statement. Don't overestimate it - there's a guy, he's on top, he's human, there's a team. EOM.

3 still holds relevance. "grave outside menace" isn't specified :"), but might refer to civil unrest being avoided (the situation tolerated) due to risk of ''. (edit: 2 may also still be relevant)
This is the #1 reason I am all in on Chrome even though I don't really want to be. I'd like to be using some other Chromium based browser, but I can't really leave my passwordless life, and Chrome makes it all too easy to sync my garbage passwords across all devices with Chrome installed (which is available pretty much everywhere).
It doesn't appear to hi-jack the back button. I think it redirects to a new page once or twice, and as you go back it triggers the redirect again. On Firefox, you can right-click the back button to show a list of your history to jump back to where you want to go.
Google employ at least one OpenSSL committer and have their own simpler version of the library, BoringSSL.
Never believe anything entirely but compared to say Sean Hannity, newsmax, or Infowars, which is where a lot of Republicans get their news from these days, they're practically 99% solid.

Let's stop asking "why closed feature in closed product works so bad?" type of questions. The only appropriate answer is: because costumers continue to use it.
Given the... possible... origins of this virus, I hope they are being exceedingly careful about actually synthesizing a virus with all of these mutations at once.

Or they stand a very high risk of creating and releasing the doomsday variant they are worried about in the first place...

I'm guessing Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12) https://www.doi.gov/hspd12/directives

"'Secure and reliable forms of identification' for purposes of this directive means identification that (a) is issued based on sound criteria for verifying an individual employee's identity; (b) is strongly resistant to identity fraud, tampering, counterfeiting, and terrorist exploitation; (c) can be rapidly authenticated electronically; and (d) is issued only by providers whose reliability has been established by an official accreditation process. The Standard will include graduated criteria, from least secure to most secure, to ensure flexibility in selecting the appropriate level of security for each application. The Standard shall not apply to identification associated with national security systems as defined by 44 U.S.C. 3542(b)(2)."
I think the innovation too has been outsourced to China, even in fashion. Western brands have been reduced to just specifying what is already available for the most part. It isn't really possible to innovate when you don't own your factories and IP is poorly protected. The simple case of just doing it eventually applies to quality too - many high fashion brands like Burberry have discretely abandoned european manufacturing.
I don't know why your comment bothers me so much, but...

No, your friend didn't have COVID a second time after being vaccinated after their first infection. Especially lacking any clarification that they were in fact tested positive both times, you are merely contributing to noise on the internet.

1) "a friend of yours" is not a data point on which others should base their worldview (unless their testicles got huge and their fiance called it off, why even share?)

2) reinfection is rare

3) it is likely the first time they think they had covid, they weren't tested, and actually had the flu.

Here is the CDC information on reinfection:
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/your-health/reinfe...

As of August 6, 2021, the CDC has nothing conclusive to say on the matter: "Cases of reinfection with COVID-19 have been reported, but remain rare . "

Anecdotes are noise, and I would encourage you to do no further research.

Sounds like fun. However, I started using LaTeX instead of Markdown+pandoc for PDF creation because I needed more control over the layout than Markdown is capable of.
Well it depends of what you are talking about. Usually people who produce contents are power users. But people who search content as you said are the 95% of others users, these are the ones who also needs a search relevant to them.

My belief is that knowledge management can't exist without power users, which we call "admins", these are the ones responsible to make sure content is well organized for others and create content if necessary. Those people need specific tools to do their job well, which to me is more something that you can have in an admin interface while all the users use the basic interface.

Those tools have two sets of users, admins (curators, creators, organizers) and regular users. We need a different interface for both. And that's exactly what we are working on.

> This isn't a byzantine environment like public web search is, why do I have to hack around the wiki's default notion of page relevance?

That's exactly why I suggested to have multi titles, when you get that and you facilitate the suggestion of new titles for a document, anyone when finding a document can suggest the query terms he used, and that can benefit others users
They are garbage for developers but managers love it. Guess who decides in the end?
Well, the master password... and all the passwords you can't store in the pass manager. Like the Windows log-in password, the Bitlocker password, your cell phone PIN, (your bank card PIN)...
> Rebar is supposed to help with compression/stretching, not lateral forces, right?

Negative, at least WRT compression.

Concrete is always stellar in the compression department, that's its strength.

Rebar alone is mostly about improving shear strength. I'm not sure how much it really improves tension, maybe when it's a mesh. I think when tension is a priority there's simply steel reinforcement added spanning the same points, unlike rebar which is simply encapsulated in the concrete.
A truck weighs three tonnes; a quadcopter weighs 3 kg. You can't amortize coffee delivery over very many packages because you have to deliver the coffee within a few minutes after it's ready; otherwise it gets cold.
so it's pretty much just a standard for having websites present tokens, having browsers talk to authentication devices to sign them, and then shuttling them back to the website?

do the signed tokens reveal anything else about the identity of the user, or just that it's the same user that registered? can tokens that have been signed for two different websites by the same user be linked? (ie: do the public keys or signatures presented to websites a and b tell website a or b about their registration or use of the other site? does the mfa provider learn of the user's identity and registration on sites a and b?)
Isn't this the clipboard history? Did anyone verify this claim independently? It's incredibly hard to believe they would upload plain text for 'telemetry'.
yet this exactly what the pharma companies did during the clinical trials to confirm the vaccines' efficacy.
Polymutant just means it has multiple mutations, right? I'm not sure what crazy supermutant resistant is. Does it say anywhere that this was the most crazy supermutant resistant spike they could possibly create, or just that they combined some natural mutations?
I didn’t see any credible videos of ballot boxes actually being stuffed in the 2020 US election.
Because your immune system isn't guaranteed to pick up on the most relevant part of a pathogen.

While lots of people got diseases like smallpox and measles only once, others would get them several times. The difference is what part of the virus your antibodies selected to attack.

The spike protein seems to be both extremely important to SARS-CoV-2 and relatively unchanging.

If your body creates antibodies to it, you will have immunity on par with the vaccines.

If your body doesn't create antibodies to it, you have a mixed bag of immunity. Getting a vaccine buffs that up.

Immune systems are very buggy learning systems. This is good from a species survival perspective, but not always for a specific individual.
I would point out fear of resistance is not a good reason to withhold vaccination or withhold care. Resistance will always eventually happen through evolution. What's important is that care is given when indicated.
Anybody with so little else to do as to conduct that study would almost
certainly close ranks with the non-programming consultants who palmed off pair
programming as "a thing." Anybody who actually programs for a living can see
that the practice is "one guy doing all the work while the other guy slows him
down."
It relies on the existence of the proverbial bigger fool down the chain.
No, their engineered mutant completely evaded normal immunity, but that was the purpose of the study, to find a virus that would, then test it against the super immunity discovered in some individuals. This super immunity was able to neutralize the virus, helping to support the idea that there is a special immunity in certain infected then vaccinated people that we should strive to replicate in future vaccines.
Except that password managers still need "something you know" to get access, a password. That's why one of the most popular managers is called 1Password.
Is it me or do these updates look more and more like they should be dot releases?

No, there's no standard for any of those things. "Lost" or "Damaged" devices at least are indistinguishable from the service POV: you simply cannot authenticate and need to reset your auth method. "Compromised" is a bit different; with WebAuthn you can at least attest that an authenticator device is from some known authority (e.g. this is a valid Apple device), so there's a notion of device authenticity, but this has nothing to do with whether or not the actual device is being used nefariously or with ill intention or not. Maybe you could use it as an anti-fraud signal if you do that stuff.

WebAuthn in a big sense is just a browser-standardized way of a service operator storing your (abstract service users') public key, and you using the private key to sign login challenges from them, proving it is you. Every site gets a different keypair, and that's it in a nutshell. Even though this is not a password, just like any password, a lot of the mechanisms you use to recover from disaster are exactly the ones that are most vulnerable to being attacked.

Any kind of flow to handle these scenarios is basically going to look a lot like how it looks now: Keep emergency recover codes that the user has to print out and use as an extreme emergency, etc. The user has an email attached and you send a magic link to that email in order to do a reset, and it will be assumed this account is secure, and if it's not, then nothing else about the reset scheme really matters. And even if mybackupemail@gmail.com is using a password, WebAuthn as a first party feature used by the service operator has a number of real concrete benefits to themselves and the user: no more credential stuffing, browser-enforced phishing immunity, and browsers make it pretty easy to use immediately with features like fingerprint readers or FaceID.
FUD. MS gathers more information about you than ever.
I have to maintain and support lots of those Excel "solutions" and the users actively block learning any software practices.

We are talking about people that still use spaces to right align a date in word or create the table of contents by hand. The least that they want to be is programmers.
The same problem exists on Linux when copying from browser to LibreOfice.
Yeah such systems will be problematic. Those type of systems also have similar problems in cases where a certificate has been revoked. Thankfully that isn't a very big problem (at least at the moment).
Web does not want another closed browser.
I’ve seen the EFF mention that the police is working technologies that will allow them do this amass. Also see the article OP (me) mentioned in link 2. Biometric passwords have less protection under the law in the US.
GP's comparison seems considerably more accurate. Even if your position is that the only way the Post Office could comply with filtering the mail for the address that's still not the same as an order to stop processing mail. Not to mention "someone sent a" makes it sounds like a single instance which is certainly not what http://uu.canna.to/ regardless if you agree or disagree with pirating content.
It isn't like Windows is a toy I admit.

My view is that it's the result of decades worth of customer demands (scarcely any of which I need) and a tendency to feature creep to do major releases. The cruft in a thing like that is remarkable.
The inevitable end state of a closed ecosystem is compromise and that's why I'm out.

400k is for FAANG, I doubt I'd get that nor do I really want to compete for it. Seems like a lot. I'm really happy where I am, even if I'm not making top dollar. Money isn't everything, I want to be comfortable, happy, and stress-free. I also just don't like California, I prefer small towns in Texas.

I know Google and FB made Flutter and RN respectively, and I thank them for that. That doesn't mean other SV companies aren't bloated, FAANG has a lot of money from their spigots (Google & FB have their ad money streams) and live on another level, not VC funding.

Cross platform has come a long way and enables small companies to do a lot more with less. Flutter is nice but has flaws, RN is the sweet spot. I could talk for days about the pros and cons of both.

A previous comment of mine regarding of Flutter vs RN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28394396
If you asked me what keeps NYC real estate prices up, I'd say "rich people", but the dynamics of distinctive urban centers such as Toronto, London, San Francisco and others don't apply at all on a country level. It's not the same types of assets, buyers or price levels.

So yes Toronto might have been influenced by rich Chinese buying properties, but does that extend to Canada as a whole?
Without context no arguments about the environment or waste matter at all. The context is extremely important otherwise we end up replacing something moderately bad for the environment with something even worse.

E.g we replace plastic bags with tote bags but a tote bag must be used over 130 times to make it better than a single use plastic bag.

With your thought we wouldn't even be able to compare the two because you're not interested in the actual reality of these issues.
Apparently Mayor Breed learned the most appropriate lesson from the recall election.

But I like her quote regarding the "fun police":

> "The message I want to get out is: Support our nightlife venues, support our restaurants, go out and enjoy yourself," she said. "Make sure you are vaccinated because of the requirements, but don't feel as though you have to be micro-managed about mask wearing. We don't need the fun police to come in and tell us what we should or shouldn't be doing. We know what we need to do to protect ourselves."

(Also: Eric Ting's articles are one of my main reasons for visiting sfgate.com.)
Bitbucket Cloud and Bitbucket On-prem are two entirely separate products. It makes about as much sense as you can expect from Atlassian. The former was a Mercurial thing that they purchased then later removed Mercurial support. The latter used to be called Stash.

We moved from Bitbucket On-prem to Gitlab and I must admit I do miss parts of Bitbucket's UI. It was much easier to find reviews you needed to do and it was much clearer when reviewers had finished reviewing and if work needed to be done. Gitlab should just copy this stuff.
Before Chicken Pox vaccination was invented people would hold "Pox Parties" to infect and immunize their children at a young age when risk of severe infection was low.

I'm not, sadly. It's pretty standard in our industry that companies will use a ton of open source software without giving back at all, or giving back many orders of magnitude less than they get.

More than three decades of bugs, crashes, worms, virused, trojans, hackers, scammers, social engineering, ransomware, idiot users and the occasional battery fire. I'd secure my device as well.
I'm a long time arch user, but recently installed the latest Fedora on an old lenovo x220 an was impress by how polished it is and how fast it runs! Flatpaks makes it super easy to install the latest version of both free and non-free software, which always was a pain to acomplish on Fedora a couple of years ago.

Fedora may be the best options for new linux users who do not want to customize everything, but just wants a clean, fast and polished "works-out-of-the-box" experience.

I'll keep my higly cusomized arch (sway) install for my programming needs for now, but will probably choose Fedora for my "personal" laptop where I do some light video and photo editing.
