Systemd's core dump utility stuffs the files in /var/lib/systemd/coredump with 640 permissions and ownership of root:root regardless of who owned the process.

It might be paranoia on someone's part, but I agree that it causes a lot of unnecessary privilege escalation for people who want to actually fix the problem.
This is a great point, maybe an AI can do the work of editing podcasts to remove "ums" or air-brushing ads to remove blemishes cheaper than a creative-type would but I don't see podcasters or fashion models disappearing as a concept anytime soon.

If I'm guessing correctly what scenario aggregation is by just the name, I've found that technique is very powerful when doing that with plain old human-based decision making. Basically if you have a bunch of complex scenarios that you're trying to consider at once it can be very difficult to make progress because you have to compare whole trees of options against each other along with their probability every time you make a change anywhere. But if several scenarios have some prefix where they are basically equivalent (or can be made to be), you can bundle them together and consider the group as a whole, putting off deciding between them until later. Sometimes this can collapse a huge complex decision tree into the one obviously correct thing to do right now, until the point where they diverge again.

"This systematic review highlighted lack of appropriate evidence on efficacy of back protectors. Based on limited information, we are uncertain about the effects of back protectors on spinal injuries. Further research is required to substantiate the effects of back protectors on mortality and other injuries to the back."

They describe different things. 10% down in a day would be a crash (and a correction). 10% down in a month or two is a correction, without the crash part. There's no formal definition of how fast something has to be to be considered a crash, but 2% ain't it.
I live in California. It took me 2 months of calling people to finally get someone who was accepting new patients to be my PCP within an hour commute(I had to pay for one medical membership). Getting ANY dermatologist appointment is 1 month out, getting a good dermatologist appointment was 3 months out (involved a lot of time calling them up again and again). My wife is undergoing mental health crisis, it took us two weeks of just basically calling everyone on the insurance phone book to finally get an appointment 1 week out. My PCP appointments usually take at least 1 week out at all times. When I needed a gastroenterologist for a “mystery pain” in the stomach, it took me 1 month of suffering before I could see them (if you’re dying call 911, else suffer), my CT scan appointment took a week and me constantly having to call them up to expedite it.

Basically the point being if you’re dying call 911 else wait at least a week to see someone. I as a person who has no medical degree should not be making that call. I should have access to someone who can make that call (without bankrupting myself). Even in third world countries you can see doctors the same day. It’s appalling you can’t in the greatest country in the world.
I think "high speed correction" is technically more accurate than "crash". A "crash" can be caused by very real things. A "correction" is caused by unsanity being cancelled.
Well yeah, that might be a good use case for nbb too: people who just want to try out a bit of "CLJS" without spending too much time on setup first.
I think this is a bad idea. The author is clearly self motivated, so why does he want to start a full-time dev career so early? College is basically the best time in most people's lives to explore ideas that they have. College students are smart enough to build something significant, and have enough time to do so. I know so many people who have atrophied motivationally at Facebook and other big tech companies. The ones that haven't devolved into general apathy are more focused on climbing the corporate ladder or making more money, not anything truly fun and inspirational. Personally, I would love the opportunity to go back to college and have the time I need to explore my ideas.

Are there any solutions for dealing with xfinity hotspots which are in range to join, but may not have internet access?

I'd like to leverage the open access (as a Comcast subscriber), but I stopped auto joining the networks as sometimes with 2-3 bars of signal, there is no internet.

I already have a Pi connected to 5G phone and it would be great to be able to utilitize the hotspot as well.
A reminder that a 2% drop followed by a 2% rise does not return to the previous tops. Drops while appearing small do have their significant impacts felt for longer than expected.

Was already below 50 day moving average a few days ago probably more now. Half way to a correction. Seems like we've been up and up and up for so long people are surprised!

Though today's news take is on Evergrand a Chinese company be the cause. Which I believe is one of the biggest holders of loan debt in China. It seems like news reports CCP will not bail them out.

So if you believe the big rally we've had is built on risky credit and 'free' credit extended by governments that will come home to roost, then it could be a scary sign. But from what I've read China is somewhat unique in there small scale individual loaning with historically low compliance & reserves for banks, seems the government is trying to reign that in. Protect their power & what they view as best for their economy in the long run, at expense of short term correction.

I think they're probably equally likely. First you have to get someone in office that doesn't get the establishment knee on their back.

I just don't see how it's possible without a complete top to bottom replacement of a majority of our government.

Why should technology so bad it needs thirty mulligans have the power to completely destroy your life?

And exactly how are they obligated to keep those policies? Answer: they aren't. There isn't some law saying '30 hits before we report you', and Apple is certainly going to drop the number as the public gets more used to the idea of CSAM. They'll keep dropping it until the news articles start coming out about how it's destroying lives.

This is corporate law enforcement. You don't have a right to due process, any say in their policies, or protection via any sort of oversight.

The answer, as much as there is one, is PA schools. 2-2.5 year programs, overwhelmingly attended by women, after which you make solidly middle class money and do almost all the work people demand to see doctors for.

Yes, Berkeley had undergrad CS degrees in the 80's (and late 70's). One in the College of Engineering and one in the College of Letters and Science. Also, an undergrad EECS in Engineering.

The Bay Area school that didn't have an undergrad CS program was Stanfurd.
It happens on or about this time most years it seems. Humans seem incapable of basic pattern recognition when it comes to money.

My guess is this sort of article is designed to cause amateurs to run away, feeding short positions and bringing some stocks down to improve profits on specific purchases.

Microsoft managed to sufficiently standardize / commoditize the hardware running Windows to the point where supporting old devices was fairly easy. Android devices have more in the firmware.
>All of my users are American (or Australian), which might have something to do with it.

I worked in a call centre for a summer in southern England dealing with deliveries for a high-end retailer, and I can say with 100% conviction the stereotype foreigners have of the reserved, mild upper-middle class English person has no basis in reality when you're a mere peasant on the phone to them! Some of the rudest, pettiest, most completely unnecessary conversations I've ever had happened that summer, their complete lack of perspective really made me rethink how I saw the world.
I think it's interesting and worth pointing out that the trend began before the "War on Terror", which in my experience people often don't know. My point was to sort of say, yes but let's look a little deeper as the history is interesting and important.

All of those have been very good days to buy.
Often policies get set in place and in motion before they filter down, and impact is not understood.

Either communicating the course, or if upper management fails in their duties, charting the course and communicating, is essential.

For example, "we will deprecate this technology by XX date, and we have cleared the path to enable this" is often essential to success. In a healthy org, telling people what you're doing, how you're doing it, and why you're doing it is as necessary as when you're doing it.

Just like you don't want to release every feature all at once, you similarly don't want to muck up your infrastructure (physical or business).
Just to add on to this - remember the first time you saw syntax highlighting? And before that, the code was all in one color? You didn't know you needed it before, but you didn't go back, did you?

In the US, lending standards in 2005-2008 were openly silly and terrible. Lending standards today are much stricter, though not perfect.

I'd bet on a horizontal. (<-- PERSONAL PREDICTION HERE) The government is in a bind now -- they cannot just allow a housing pop because that affects the middle and upper-middle class voter base. Ending ZIRP would also pop the equity bubble -- again bad for the wealthy and middle-class voter base.

The best they can do is try to contain it. We've already seen the government too scared to reign in monetary policy in 2009-2021 even when things were good -- so thats a good indication of how scared they are to normalize things again.

The best they can do is allow controlled inflation, as they are doing, and allowing real prices to stabalize on an inflation adjusted basis.

Unfortunately, in all this, US fiscal and monetary policy has truly punished the young.
Hopefully never, at least not in their current state.

I've said it a few times on HN, but web notifications are almost entirely used for malicious purpose. Copy-pasting from a comment I made previously on the topic:

> Take a look at your grandma's Android phone and she probably has 12 Chrome notifications saying she won a free iPad because she went on a site that asked to send notifications, and users are so used to user-hostile UX's that force you to agree to everything to use the site, they just hit "allow" so they can get to the content. I'm not surprised Apple doesn't want that on the iPhone.
Kindle ruined reading for me. When I hold a paper book in my hands, I hold one book. When I hold a Kindle, I hold hundreds of them. Having that in mind, it's hard to concentrate on one book and finish reading it as I keep thinking about tens and hundreds of other books I have on the device that are just a few touches away. Not only that, there is a possibility of a virtually endless stream of new books that are just a few clicks away. So I became a collector. I kept buying them and never reading them. They were just so cheap and instantly available, I would read them one day. Then there's highlighting, annotations, social networking through Goodreads... it felt like everything but reading.

So one day I got annoyed at myself, factory reset my Kindle and put it away. I went back to reading paper books. I make sure I purchase them from Bookshop and avoid Amazon at all cost. It's slightly more expensive, I have to wait a few days to receive a book but it's well worth it.

I know that a lot of people like e-readers, I used to be one of them, so I wouldn't want to kill them but I hope they don't kill printed books. Also you know what else is an abomination? Kindle Unlimited. That's quite literally a pile of utter rubbish in written form.

Freiwirtschaft is probably the most neutral/centrist "third way" possible. It's neither leaning toward either capitalism nor communism. Rather, the goal is a natural economic order.

California being terrible is only a recent phenomenom. It used to be common to convert your sfh into an apartment complex. There are 5 story single lot brick apartments on my block that are still illegal to build on a neighboring lot today with SB9 and 10.

Even just straight up rolling back to zoning codes that existed in 1960 without much further change would do a lot for supply. Los Angeles in 2010 had a population of 4 million and was zoned for 4.3 million homes. Los Angeles in 1960 on the other hand had a population of 2.5 million and was actually zoned for 10 million homes.

"Who says you have a right to privacy on a device you do not own"

The law does. You paid for the device, or a car or a house you are renting. For the duration on your possesion the owner does not get to randomly violate your rights. If they are not happy with it, they should not have given you the device.

"if you are using our property, we have the right to monitor it. Because it's our property."

While you are at it, give them the copyright to any sextapes they record in your house, and a waiver in case it ends up being child porn .

Also give them a waiver in case they record a conversation with your lawyer, doctor or employer, breaking attorney-client privilidge, medical privilidge or sensitive conversation with your employer.
Overreaction to the impending evergrande default tomorrow where they will likely fail to pay interest. The implosion will be mostly contained within China. Sure there will be some margin call around the world, but again, contained in china.
Yeah, I'm seeing some issues with Code by Petzold citing comments that are talking about e.g. Code Complete or just code in general, but with such a generic name (and given the forum) it's actually pretty impressive to me that most comments are identified correctly.

Edit: another one that is tough is Open by Agassi - seems most of these comments do not actually have anything to do with the book. I would guess most one-word titles will have similar issues.

Would there be a commercial benefit for an earth orbit station? I believe not at current prices, otherwise companies would have launched one.

As soon as you consider private investment (as opposed to essentially charity funding of pure research/exploration), then looking at analogies vs an Antarctic site or deep ocean site may be quite relevant - those are also sites that are somewhat difficult to reach and build on but easier than Moon on Mars; so for any commercial argument in the form of "mining resources" there has to be an answer why suffer the difficulties on the moon instead of (lesser) difficulties in Antarctica.
I love peertube and spend a lot of time these days watching videos on it, perhaps moreso than youtube now.

This video is not very good however, there's something not very stimulating to the imagination about moving from youtube yet still using shallow buzzwords like "content creator", "monetise", "open source".

If you’re saying that the “war on drugs” was motivated by any less than 50% racism you lost me. Yes, it was also useful in marginalizing anti war and counter cultural movements, but that was a side-benefit. The war on drugs was started in 1971 - and was a driving force behind that “soaring crime rate”
Another way to look at this is:

Wall Street returns to June 30th levels, which were record highs, and which marked a tremendous rebound from the Feb-April 2020 decline due to the pandemic. Those levels, while erasing some gains from the past couple of months, are still higher than the 10-year trend line of a remarkably long-lasting bull market.
Given the way that inflation looks switching some investments out of bonds is a good idea.
Totally, anyone who wants privacy is obviously a criminal /s
> I’d say it’s criminal abuse of power.

That's exactly what it is, but there's generally no enforcement against police in the USA, and there's definitely no real enforcement against federal police as a group in the USA.

(Sometimes individual federal police get busted, but nothing happens to medium-to-large criminal conspiracies within the FBI/DEA/BATFE/etc.)

It's a known bug that nobody with the power to fix really cares about fixing.
"Process intensity" is a good way to describe the kind of programming work I find most interesting. The standard CRUD application being an example of a low-process intensity software in contemporary context.

Often we can become mesmerized by systems of great scale that deal with large amounts of data. But what's really interesting and valuable is not the amount of data per se, but the things done with that data.

Furthermore, data intensity and process intensity are orthogonal. That means you don't have to work at a company like Google with massive amounts of data to find interesting work. There's process-intensive work to be found at all scales of data intensity. I've even done interesting side-projects processing less than a kilobyte of data.
