This is what was given up when people chose App Stores over the web. You want centralization and safety? You also get companies that must comply with local law.

And very often, the law doesn't give a shit for your freedom. Especially not outside the 'West'.
It's not about the products themselves but about the fake reviews and the little cards in the box promising compensation for a positive review. As such it does not matter if the same products (some of which are genuinely good) will be sold under a different name.
I doubt it. Even if a kid loves playing Minecraft and doesn't like watching cartoons, the round black ball symbol is much more ubiquitous, they will often be exposed to it.
They asked, but before this situation, there were no serious reasons for that. But a few days ago, the Navalny organization (FBK) was declared by the court to the status of an extremist organization.
They just put the opposition on one list with terrorist organizations like ISIS and the Taliban.

For now, Google and Apple ban "another dangerous organization," not political opposition.
Google and Apple already censor all the content and application for local markets.

It's nothing new. Many youtube videos are restricted in some countries but accessible in others.
Companies want to make money, not to play political games, and to declare war for freedom. It's not their responsibility. But in Russia, many local players dream about a ban of Google and Apple to finally take all the market.

Mail.ru, Yandex, Vkontakte, Sber, etc., all these companies got money from an oligarchy in Russian, and for them, Google and Apple are the leading competitors in the market.
Many local clones of google search, mail, WhatsApp, youtube, twitch, TikTok, and other services, but they can't win the market because of US companies.

I think, in the future, Russia will ban US giants on their market. Everything goes to this.
ALSO... Urbit!
An invasion of Taiwan would result in World War III in about 5 minutes. Seeing Taiwan through the eyes of Eastern Europe would be a mistake. The stakes are well understood, and giving up Taiwan would destabilize Japan, Korea, Australia, Indonesia and India, not a single one of which is acceptable to the US.
So who does the hard jobs? Who slaughters the cows. Who picks the vegetables in 100 degrees.

It sure is damn noble. Someone has to do it, or we all have to. And I give those people amazing props for doing those things.

Many of us have either done those jobs and taken pride, or have family who have in order to better the lives of those children. Saying that work is not noble is demeaning to those who worked for your current standard of living.
It depends on the field.

Having politically liberal opinion and opposing dictatorial regimes is also a "mutable" identity. Do you think all those authoritarian regimes persecuting and killing people and denying their rights (china social credit system) is also justified? They can change at any moment, they don't even have to do anything to their bodies.
I agree it's not the same, but AirBnB profiles with a long list of positive ratings as a guest play a similar role. "This person slept under my roof, acted well, and treated my home with respect". When I advertised my apartment for a sublet on Craigslist, I received a couple AirBnB profiles and considered them pretty compelling as references. I ended up subletting to one of those people, and they were great.

This.

The M2 Browning .50 machine gun ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M2_Browning ) is more than a century old, and still very widely used. Originally, it was an anti-tank weapon...then tank armor got thicker. It became primary armament on fighter airplanes...then enemy fighters got faster and better-armored. Then it was...

Being very flexible and useful in current-day military operations is why the M2's still around. (Though being mostly below the radar of the US's stupid rival-service-branches politics, and always-gotta-have-new-shiny-stuff mentality sure helps.)
Yeah, you'd have to install LUKS or eCryptfs or something, but I think it would be worth a try. I expect Windows would only see the encrypted files then.

Good question. iPhones tell you when applications access the mic or camera using an indicator light along the top, and I haven’t noticed unusual hardware access patterns from any of the popular apps that I use. But like most other users, I’m not always paying attention, and I don’t keep track of every access.
"We needn't bother legalizing cannabis, because its so easy to get anyway."

Practical, yes, but I haven't despaired of our republic that much either.
They don't have to be strictly unique per user. You can send out different sets of URLs to different cohorts of users, then correlate new URL blockings with client IDs to detect rogue app installations and excommunicate them. Telegram did that when Russia tried (unsuccessfully) block it.

Not just medicine, but a lot of other areas of science. Covid just unveiled how science is in a trust crisis.
There's also ICC and INTERPOL, which are not part of the UN.

INTERPOL does come after you.

There are also extradition treaties.
So the workaround is to initialize WASM with an array buffer which allows direct manipulation of the data in WASM it seems. The canvas bytes can be used in WASM so long as the bytes are passed in at initialization.

In that case, JavaScripts only duty is to pack input data into the byte array and pass control to WASM which writes to an output buffer (also shared byte array) and passes control back to JavaScript to process result avoiding an unnecessary data copy.

You’d have to have some types in JS which can process the data using bit shifts and whatnot though in a lower level way.
From https://www.terraform.io/docs/cli/commands/refresh.html :

In many areas, the vaccination rate is low. Also, Covid has many sub-lethal effects that make life unpleasant, to say the least. And many people, due to age or other conditions, are especially vulnerable.
In Alabama, there have been more Covid deaths than births. Is this the way you want to control the population?
That part where you have to make a commit in order to attempt to fix a CI problem was driving me nuts. It‘s the same with Travis.

Concourse gets this right - you can run a pipeline task as a one-off from your workstation until it’s done, and only then check it in. And even ssh into the build container in order to debug build failures.
I think Tesla is kind of counting on regulators to step in at this point after promising to open it up for
good drivers who paid for FSD in 2 weeks. Otherwise they face the choice of a lot of bad press from FSD accidents which will definitely happen given the current state of FSD or telling all their paying customers that they're bad drivers. If they get blocked they can redirect customer angst to the government.
There are lots of experiments that do not require particle accelerators but if you want to observe neutrinos after they have travelled only a few dozen meters, you need a source at that distance.
I have switched from zimbra (community) to MailInABox (https://mailinabox.email) and can say that a cheap five euros per month ssd-shared-4-virtual-cpu can manage as much as 1000nds of mails per day in and out for dozens of users with ease. So far I had not issues with spam classification, also due using a .de and .net email domain. (See stories about the infamous .xyz domains for reference)
I tried Modoboa as well, but got stuck with the (lets encrypt) cerificate renewal process at that time - might be I did something wrong, don't know. Now everything runs automatic and smooth.
The only time I touched cs was in 2014, when my wife suggested to find a place via it and registered a female profile. 100% of the profiles looking at her were male and like from a dating site ad. There also was an unwanted email spam about who she could stay with - also very dating-site-like. Airbnb felt way more friendlier and safer.
Ask HN: Do you think phone numbers should be private to other employees?
I'm astonished to know that phone numbers of anyone is visible to others within an Active Directory, and it is more than hard to change this behaviour:

https://serverfault.com/questions/642002/is-it-possible-to-hide-a-phone-number-in-the-global-address-list-from-certain-us

Personally I believe that phone numbers should be a kind of privacy not only for public but also for internal systems, since you do not trust all of them (especially in a large corporate). But given this, I'm wondering if this behaviour persists in other places (e.g., G Suite), and does it "seem just normal" to people?
Talking of this, wasn't the issue for OnlyFans related to payment processing and banking? What's to stop a company like that from buying a bank and setting up its own credit card? Is the main issue that it would still be a visa/master/discover card, and therefore they would have the same payment processing woes?

I don't have to research gain of functionality in virus. I can chose to research something else. Yes, some people are willing to do extreme things in pursuit of their careers, but most people, even highly educated people have things they value more than their job.
It probably has more to do with the Fed rate and monetary policy than competition.
rp_filter (reverse path) does. Problem is it's a leaf(ish) router solution: if the src ip is not in the locally attached subnet, drop it. Not every isp sets this up though, for whatever reason.
Honestly, if you are trying to so a "back in my day" to 10 years ago... I think you should take a moment and reexamine some of the fundamental facts that you are basing your worldview on. You're likely relying on flawed anecdotal evidence to decide how things used to be.

It's possible your personal journey is effected by your experiences. 2009 was a financial crisis, when I'm sure many people were desperate for money. Others delayed entering the workforce by taking on college debt. It's not a sign of a healthy economy, but the strategic decisions of millions of people...

And in 2009 there was no pandemic. You weren't risking actual life and limb to work a 9-5. In 2009 most people didn't have smartphones. There was no real option to make money online.

And let's be clear: just because people aren't working for a corporation in a 9-5 doesn't imply they aren't working. Today you can make money online easier (Only Fans comes to mind). The people who become internet models can make more money quitting their jobs and devoting their effort to content creation. And honestly, a pornstar has more prestige and better hours than McDonald's, too...
If there are specific scenarios that need to be optimized for the use case, please get in touch!
Yeah I don't believe that either. What is probably happening is that many products have over 20 different sellers that don't stock all products at all times, while amazon usually chooses the one with the lowest price currently available that they fulfill themselves
I dislike reading this, but it's unfortunately true and something you already see everywhere in the world when immigrants can't access basic social services and are easier for people to exploit.

> Nobody's ever provided a concrete example of a specific TV model which does this.

The only concrete claim I could found is [1] - however, I admit, there is no further proof that this claim is true.

There are interesting discussions about the topic in [2] and [3], however even there are no addition concrete examples besides [1] - so, it might be that [1] is in fact how the rumor started.

> It's like the "TVs soon coming with a 5G sim" one,

Not yet, true, but there are enough signs that make such a development credible: Built-in connectivity over which you have no control is already standard for cars. Projects like Amazon Sidewalk show that vendors are clearly thinking about taking connectivity in their own hands. A large part of the value proposition of 5G is connectivity everywhere and a supercharged internet of things.

So I see this as the most likely trajectory for the future.

Sure, it’s copying your revision to a disk, writing the date on the label, and sticking it in a box.
we have a confirmed discrepancy at six sigma, sure.

wanna bet how long it'll take to figure out _how_, at such a low detection rate?

We're at "we've confirmed there's a bug", not "here's the repro, traceback, and by the way if you fix these four lines it'll work again".
I'm talking about fixing the external actual configuration that has diverged, to match what terraform config wants it to be.

However, snom380 says this is what terraform is intended to do, and does with properly implemented providers, which makes sense to me.

I'm not sure if you are talking about the same things. We -- me, snom380, and the original quote I made from OP -- are talking about what happens when external actually existing live resources have diverged from terraform's state. I understand what you said that under a "perfect" situation, this would not happen. But it does sometimes for various reasons, what the original quote from OP is talking about and what I'm talking about is what happens when it does. I think maybe you are talking about something else.
As it happens, we don't live happily ever after unless the evil covid kills us. There are plenty of other death causes, some directly caused by lockdowns like delayed health care, suicide, OD, increased poverty. What we really want to look at is excess mortality, and possibly excess 'quality years lived' for some definition thereof. Some Canadian researchers looked at excess mortality in Canada and found it 3x than 'deaths with covid'.

Covid is a long term issue. It is fairly pointless to compare response outcome for the first year and a half of an extremely contagious mutating endemic virus. Look at a 10 year horizon, possibly longer. Sweden is middle of the pack within Europe if we don't cherrypick, and that outcome could possibly be driven by chance more than anything else.

Speaking of other costs, it is really pathetic what we do to children. At my kid elementary school they detected two kids with covid. No word of severity of symptoms, if any symptoms whatsoever. As a result, the entire grade was sent home packing for weeks, after a whole two weeks of in-person instruction. This when kids have about the same risk for severe covid as for severe flu, and teachers have one of the lowest covid risk of all occupations (!).
The only difference between what is being described here and what we have been working with until today is how far undo/redo go.

For the most part the intent is to memorialize a snapshot of the work, a task the floppy icon has been fulfilling all along.

Could you please post links to those animations? They could be hugely useful.
I don't think the person made any attempt to hide their affiliation, did they? This kind of international cooperation on infectious disease is pretty normal, i.e. that's how smallpox was eradicated, and it's also normal for military branches to have their medical services work on this as well.

The issue, of course, is whether this is also cover for development of nation-state biological warfare programs, as this was a tactic used in the past to collect deadly viruses and bacteria by the Soviet, American, British and Japanese biological weapons programs, at least. Secrecy only encourages this kind of insanity, too.
I also agree, but I don't have experience with the providers he is using.

When working with AWS it will always reapply the terraform configuration.

A great use of this is for account hardening. You can run it daily to make sure it's configured correctly.

Private censorship is absolutely censorship. Anyone disagreeing is engaged in a dishonest semantic argument as there are numerous examples of it usage this way that predate this debate by decades.

The argument is that the first ammendment protects the right to engage in private censorship.

In my mind, the core debate at the center of the issue is the assertion that corporations have the same rights as any other citizen. I think that is patently absurd but the Supreme Court disagrees.
Right. I didn’t really mean the speed but the infectiousness, because people were asymptomatic when infecting each other during the incubation period. It was just really long with AIDS
At one point you'll have a long-living feature branch which you'll have to periodically rebase with the main branch, and this is where nightmares begin.
Yeah, that's an old story, but there were engineering offices of a few big US companies in Russian before.
Almost all of them left in 2010x when they understood what was going on there. Same for Belarus, companies moved their offices to Ukraine and other Eastern European countries.

They want to market and engineers there, but they don't want to risk working in authoritative countries with batshit crazy wannabe emperors.

Malthus' assumptions and conclusions have been empirically proven wrong, and resoundingly so.

An abundance of resources leads to slower population growth instead of a continued geometric growth. Paradigm shifts such as the industrial, green, and digital revolutions allow us to ever more efficiently extract resources from a (somewhat) closed system instead of the availability of resources remaining constant.

Apart from the data alone, which pretty much speaks for itself, from Steven Pinker to Ray Kurzweil, from economics to ecological and cognitive sciences there are numerous arguments against the Malthusian model and a Malthusian world:

Not surprised that pharma money influences doctors.

I was in the waiting room of a doctors office in Chicago when all activity involving patients had to stop immediately for an all-hands crisis. Was it a fire? A flood? An active shooter?

No. The pharma rep who buys the entire office lunch on Tuesdays was sick, and they had to find another drug company to pick up the bill.

Disgusting.

Phew! I thought I was misunderstanding terraform when I saw that.

Perhaps they are working with certain poorly implemented or buggy providers, and not realizing those providers were doing something different than terraform's properly working behavior that most providers implemented.

Bugs happen, but the first step is agreeing on intended behavior so we know what's a bug!
Which itself embodies an archaic remnant: the “floppy” disk icon is most often the 3.5 inch disk (the one with a metal shutter) which was in fact rigid.

Actual “floppy” disks (8” and later 5.25”) were flexible and needed a slightly more rigid sleeve to make them easy to handle. The 3.5” ones needed the sleeve to protect the medium (the actual disk).
