The next paragraph might be that clarification, although I agree it isn't totally clear what he meant there:

> Assume that this regex will be used for a public URL shortener written in PHP, so URLs like http://localhost/, //foo.bar/, ://foo.bar/, data:text/plain;charset=utf-8,OHAI and tel:+1234567890 shouldn’t pass (even though they’re technically valid). Also, in this case I only want to allow the HTTP, HTTPS and FTP protocols.
> Despite the missing details from Apple on the technical design of Private Relays, the provided description by Apple leads us to conclude that private relays do not provide privacy by-design, but privacy by-decision.

This sounds vaguely familiar, as in: this will mostly work against surveillance by other corps.

That's the neat thing, the data won't help you get better care.
It's actually:

Your activity might still be visible to:
* Websites you visit
* Your employer or school
* Your internet service provider

"might" makes sense because some or none of those may apply, depending on how you're using the browser.
Shodan scans a handful of common ports [1] but you are right, a targeted attack will not be stopped by moving ports. Along the lines of what jms703 mentioned, moving ports just removes the noise from the bots so you can have better alerting on real attacks and not suffer from alert fatigue.

That’s a regulatory issue, not a technology or implementation issue. You prevent that outcome with laws, not code. Auto insurance is already heavily regulated in the US.
Experiences when choosing BtrFS or ZFS for large storage A literature review
I've "wasted" so many hours of my life on this and the original by Chris Sawyer.

The original is a masterpiece when it comes to programming and UI design I think, at least for it's time. It is also very fun :)

It's very nice that it is kept alive in this fashion with openttd.
It’s not a problem of mental models. It’s that the UI is not good.

The Cmd-Tab to switch between apps is good because it’s Least Recently Used (LRU) ordered, and the there is a visual to show what you are choosing.

Once you’ve done Cmd-Tab to choose an app then you need to do Cmd-` to choose the document. But this is usually not LRU and not visual.

In Firefox I can configure LRU and visual tab switching, but not windows switching. And Finder or IntelliJ I can cycle through windows but not in LRU order.

I have a good mental model of my apps, windows, documents and tabs, but my mental model is LRU based, not cycle based.

Maybe the better word to have used there is "cumbersome"? The thought process seems to be "I am used to something that was designed for short commands and high information density at a terminal; having this perspective of knowing what is possible, gdb and lldb are both cumbersome... maybe people who haven't really experienced something better wouldn't realize that", which I think is totally fair.
This study would be much more believable if they had used pre- and post-infection scans from the same people instead of artificially constructing the comparison groups. The study needs to be carefully analyzed by data scientists; it’s just too easy to cherry-pick the groups and claim to have found a significant difference.
100% agree w/ OP here. You would have about a decade or so of work as a programmer and then need to jump to management anyway. Assuming you are pretty smart and can pick programming up, that gives you about eight or nine years of solid work, your comp will be lower than what you can achieve in banking and then you would run smack dab into the programmer wall.

I think a better strategy would be to pick up some light coding on the side, get into positions in your own company working with technologies you like (DeFi or DeFi-adjacent) and then look for an problem/opportunity to create a software company from there.

You can always hire programmers.

Yes, this raised an eyebrow from me as well. Atrophy can happen in weeks. Healthy muscle mass means those muscles are being used. I suspect that there is something else going on with these diseases.
I think typical "elite" jobs like FAANG tech, management consulting, finance, big law, etc. in general tends to attract more competitive and entitled people. By entitled, I mean that they know their value - and the type of salaries their entitled to.

If you're a top student from a top school, you have almost all doors open. Your on-campus recruitment will probably consist of top firms from sectors like tech, consulting, finance, law, etc. And they want you. So why shouldn't you aim for maximizing your compensation?

But I get what you're saying - often times when you see discussions around these jobs, it seems like 90% of the talk revolves around total comp, nothing more.

In another article on that blog, the author hints that it was all quite organized:

"William Waterhouse of the Swan with Two Necks Coaching Inn owned 400 horses, which he used to pull stagecoaches for their first part of the journey out of London.

Unfortunately mainstream ML research is obsessed with end-to-end solutions, so a lot of interesting ideas fall by the wayside.

One example is dropping support for older browsers. Dropping IE support is better DevX because debugging esoteric IE bugs is very time consuming. But if you have a lot of people using IE, dropping it is worse UX for them, especially if they are using IE6 from a very old OS and can’t get the latest browser.

So at that point, the balance becomes “ok, if less than 1% of requests come from this browser, we don’t explicitly support it.”
Is this still the case? Not going to reiterate my comment upthread here, but I can't reconcile it with what I currently see...
Address validators for online checkout are notoriously inaccurate, though they still help a lot. You just have to prompt the user, "Did you mean 123 Example St?"

I'd probably do the same for poorly formatted URLs. When the user hits Submit, a prompt appears saying, "Did you mean `https://example.com`?"
Plaid for healthcare startup?
I have to say I'm sick and tired of these articles. I've developed severe anxiety in the last year where now I'm on meds after ending up in ER. I blame covid media coverage. Old people die, people get vaxxed, people get vaxxed and get covid, people don't get vaxxed and get covid, people get get covid then die of unrelated issues, people get some virus infection and develop long term side effects. I'd honestly rather die than struggle with these mental issues. Can we please stop at least here on hackernews?
Jake Tapper is one ultra gay cocksucker. Apparently so are you.
If you consider the image in terms of the differences between adjacent pixels you can get the same value almost across the entire image.

PNG works like this. You can run each horizontal row through any one of a variety of delta encoders that are suitable for different situations. The goal is to minimize the range of values and maximize the repetition before you pass the encoded deltas through a dictionary based compressor. Pictures like this are near optimal for this approach.
If there were 500 million homes in the US and all 500 million were owned by one corporation who rented them out to the population, would you say the solution is:

A. Build more houses (and cross your fingers that the corporation doesn’t snatch those up too)

B. Criminalize renting to some degree

One thing I find funny/curious: Does clojure not have a destructuring match in it's standard library? Most people that I've seen move from Clojure to Janet seem to avoid using that.

For me, the two types of programs I tend to use to exercise an language early on are small CLI programs that help me free up mental space, and web apps. Clojure, outside of babashka seems ill-suited to the first (and I've not figured out how to get the CLR clojure up and running).

And when I last tried to do web apps with Clojure, it seemed like everything relied on a lot of self-assmebly, and didn't map cleanly to ways I knew how to web apps at the time from Go, C#,or Erlang. I dunno what the situation is there these days.

For Janet, I did lean into the more imperative constructs early on.
It’s useful to have the comments recorded. Looking back now, apparently we find the mindset of the average person hard to imagine. If they didn’t write their thoughts down, our narratives about the past public consciousness would be completely replaced by whatever seems obvious in hindsight.

not as bad as described, but still: https://www.dotpdn.com/downloads/pdn.html, the linked site to download if not using the Windows Store, has small text "To download, please click the Free Download Now link to the right." at the top, immediately followed by a google ad slot - which at least for me loads an ad with a big blue "DOWNLOAD" button (well, when I turn adblocking and Firefox' inbuild anti-tracking thing off obviously).
The way we solve that at Brex it scales logarithmically, we use bors merge bot which batches everyone’s PRs together and will binary search for the offending PR if any build fails. I’ve hardly ever waited longer than 2x the length our suite takes. They could also decouple CI and only run code tests for upstream changes, so it wasn’t obvious what they meant, thanks for clarifying one theory. I’m not sure I’d agree that it’s a problem with e2e tests per se but rather the problem is slowness itself, and monolithic CI. Not doing e2e tests can be a valid tradeoff to avoid slowness but I’d also point out these issues can be solved without deleting the e2e suite…

They are deploying an entire copy of the .NET runtime with the app. This is convenient for the app developer since they can test the combination of app and runtime and make sure everything works.

While .NET does support trimming unused classes, methods, and DLLs, there are two things that prevent it from being used in this app. First, the .NET Windows GUI does not officially support trimming. Secondly, Paint.NET supports binary plugins. So at build time Paint.NET has no way to know what plugins will need, so it has to keep everything.
Pixelmator is great, the closest thing to paint.net, an d it closes almost every possible demand of a casual user.

Not the OP, but one came to mind quickly: developers like quick build times and easy to edit files, but end users need efficiently-packed, minimal builds - the more you do at build time to improve performance, the more time a developer has to wait for builds. This is especially true if E2E tests improve UX by reducing bugs but again devs have to wait. Finally, it’s convenient for devs if no API surfaces change but it’s convenient for users to have the newest features that will save them time. It takes work to make sure both UX and DevRel goals can align in the same solution… they’re different audiences, even if there is overlap.
"QR code" is a trademark of Denso Corporation, and refers to a specific technology. I'm unsure why news sources continue to misreport that the data is stored in "QR code". The correct term is "2D barcode".

Looking at their github, "QR code" is glaringly elided from their README. I'd guess they're very familiar with the standing QR code trademark.

Piql's 2D barcode technology is called a "boxing barcode". It is not a QR code. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxing_barcode

It's not uncommon to put a separate link in many of the individual tweets in the series.

Amazing how our own brain can delude us by creating a feeling that we understand something because (apparently) we have produced a clear definition of it.

Just a hint - each of these "facts" or "rules" mean slightly something else depending on the context they are used in. This context is not hard-encodable because it slightly mutates with every new information learned or forgotten.
> From what i understand, absurd overregulation prevents hundreds of diseases to be diagnosed because ... reasons. They cant add various sensors, but they happily add useless and dangerous stuff like face recognition, even if it 's harder to implemetn. You can't even get a health report based on your genetic profile anymore. Which i understand can be a problematic in the US but it s happening in europe too

Opting into [a feature] should be as easy as opting out. I for one don't mind people making their data available for analysis but to include a blanket default opt-in for everything is the very reason why "absurd overregulation" exists now.

> It is curious that they chose depression and cognitive decline because , even if you diagnose them , depression is iffy to treat and i dont know anything to prescribe for cognitive decline

Especially when depression and cognitive decline can be so subjective. For example, I think CSAM is quite objectively understood as detrimental for everyone but is it really in Apple's interest to specify a systemwide implementation for all of their product lines to combat this behavior?
>No its not while Iran has a nuclear weapons program and is sanctioned for it.

Only the US government still believes this. Which happens to have interests strongly opposing Iran's.

>US imposed sanctions, company owned by huawei broke them, what should happen here?

You can get a judgement against the company or even Huawei if you figure out a legal strategy. Why would you go after an employee on false pretenses? Come on, we both know what's happening there.

> They broke embargo and tried to hide it, what do you expect... To just let them continue to aid Iran?

Is your argument really that people in Iran shouldn't be allowed to have computers, and that it's fine to lie and imprison people for things they did well outside of your jurisdiction over false pretenses for it?

Because right now your argument is basically that the US should be allowed to make law that is valid worldwide and to imprison anyone in the world for it.

Besides, you totally ignored the entire issue with Trump indicating that he would be willing to release her in exchange for concessions. Keep in mind he's the guy under who she was arrested.

If the corporation is making that much money from its renting monopoly then the developer should just keep the property it builds and rent it out. If five developers do this, you'll start to see price competition and prices will go down. The rich hoarders and speculators will get screwed badly. As they should be.

Except... they will beg the government to do something, tell some heart-rending narrative about those nasty rich developers, the government will do something, and they'll get to stay rich.

One of the disconnects here is that the demand is not uniform. There is demand on housing from people who live here and want to continue to live here. There is also demand on housing from people who want to invest and make money. I believe that the second category has actually been the major driving force of housing prices. Yes one thing we could do is bulldoze the city and build thousands of condo-towers, and maybe we'd drown the demand from investors and actually succeed in bringing down the prices. Or maybe we could just kneecap housing investors, and not have to terraform our city into a dystopian hellscape to please the market.
