Even if someone is not attempting to break the game, they might accidentaly hit those rare edge cases.

Of course, you could infer the usefulness of the increased volume of feedback from the fact that a game author is extremely happy about it.

Overall, I don't see any particular problems with having reported issues. We definitely don't pay cloud storage per open issue or anything like that. Initial assessment of a bug report is not particularly difficult either.

I'm not sure if your concerns translate to actual negative impact.
> Not sure about that, but I'd definitely take then there if other amusement parks killed children.

I bet most people would just find other forms of entertainment for their children.

> Google's old motto wasn't "we don't kill our users", so I don't really see what you're getting at here...

My point is that corporate evil is a concept that is too abstract for most people to understand, therefore I made it more concrete, at the same time showing how nonsensical the motto really is.
Cutting cooked meat seems like about the worst possible demonstration they could have come up with because we already have disposable wood cutlery able to easily cut meat that you can readily buy by the hundreds at Target/Walmart/Amazon. The standard food demonstration for sharpness is slicing ripe tomatoes, and demonstrating toughness needs an uncooked winter squash.

> "Surprisingly, our wooden knife is actually three times sharper than the typical stainless steel dinner table knife,"

The typical stainless steel dinner table knife is slightly serrated, which means it doesn't need to be sharp to work well. Being sharper than something that doesn't need to be sharp to function properly is a very dumb comparison.

Sharpness also has no relation to durability except possibly in the inverse. A typical steel dinner table knife will keep doing its job for decades and thousands of wash cycles without any maintenance. Meanwhile there's a great youtube channel where a guy makes razor sharp chef's knives out of random fragile materials like jello.
You took that the wrong way. Software engineers moved up. I've gotten 2 promotions since the pandemic started. I'm talking about people shifting industries in to ones that have been short staffed, like programming, and leaving the crap jobs behind.
So, they (juries, sanators, others busy with wrong things peoples) will finlly do something or we can just discuss it for next 8-9 years and on 10 + 1 day all goes to history ?
You must be quite new to frontend development, right? It's really never been easier than today to do this. Edge uses chromium and IE isn't a thing anymore (for most devs), so it's basically 3 modern and regularly updated browser engines which are _very_ close to each other features-wise.

Also, one of the biggest problems with Chrome has been that Google are breaking standards with it repetitively. If you're for well-regulated browsers, Chrome shouldn't be your browser of choice.
No, I'm (me, singular) close to assuming that people who link to an anonymous, mangled cherry-picking of incongruous study endpoints is a paid shill.
It sounds like you Pi doesn't have a public IP address. So you need some way to tunnel requests to it. On solution would to be SSH into one of your own public boxes somewhere and use reverse port forwarding (-R). Although that's probably not very reliabile on its own as you have to make sure the connection stays alive. More professional solutions are probably ngrok or cloudflare tunnel. The latter is meant exactly for what you describe: expose a service on a private machine as a public facing web site.
Remember when they made iMessage for Android and WhatsApp never happened?

Oh wait, that part didn't happen.
Apple TV original was a very focused platform (and slow really if you were not using the apple stuff). I'm not surprised it couldn't handle YT4K. By the time I joined, Apple TV easily seems to support youtube. Apple TV is limited - no question. Doesn't support USB media etc etc. But you get a very smooth experience, very little in terms of ads. I am thinking about something that supports USB based media directly - though you can also stream to most platforms for a network storage system

The Amazon /Apple spat was annoying for sure. Now I buy my apple stuff on Amazon, etc, I think Amazon realized Apple nto a real threat to their money spinning AWS (apple's network stuff has historically been very poor and not cross platform).
I think a tiny bit of me just died with the realization that this is what this poor equipment has been reduced to. A tiny tear has been shed in its honor.

Were they real or just designed to look like that? Seems like a lot of damn weight to be carrying around to hold up a plant.
CISSP shouldn't be an entry level cert. Something like SSCP or CSSLP might fit better here.
The New Brunswick government is corrupt to the core, the entire province is run by the Irving family, including the government, so its not any kind of shock they stifle oversight.

About 60% of the employees in the province are employed by Irving family owned businesses, they have basically total economic control.
Good article, but I'm skeptical of the point raised in the "P.S." section (which leads me to doubt some of the other points in the article):

> aspartame has basically zero negative effects ...diet cola is much safer than real cola.

I won't argue that sugar isn't bad for you, but I don't think the science (and my own observation) agrees that diet cola - specifically aspartame - is "much safer" or somehow healthier. The linked WebMD page mentions this:

> The study found that consuming a low-calorie sweetener was not, by itself responsible for slowing metabolism. However, when combined with other carbohydrates, or fats, the consumption of the non-sucrose sweetener did lead to a significant drop in metabolic rate.

We don't generally ingest things in isolation, so you have to account for what an ingredient does in the context of an average diet accompanying the ingredient, and in that sense, aspartame absolutely does have significant negative effects. Those effects may or may not be worse than real sugar, but after the whole switch from "margarine is a healthier butter substitute" to "turns out margarine might be worse for you than butter" (and other similar upended dietary advice), I'm personally included to prefer sugar - in moderation - over sugar substitutes.

And that's another problem with sugar substitutes: claims that they have no negative effects encourage people to consume "diet" products in very high amounts - often more than the products they replace, so you're no longer comparing equal amounts of the substances. For me, drinking a sugary soda is an infrequent, deliberate decision - one I don't take lightly. There's a guilt that comes with it, but I think that's a good thing to make me think twice. But I also see people drinking diet soda all day, every day, thinking there are essentially no negative consequences (when there obviously are).
Exactly right.

The move to ARM will highlight the hardware freedom in a big way.

People are used to ARM being different and are that much more likely to forget open, general purpose computing right along with that "old" x86...

Heh, I always disliked x86. But now? I look at it fondly.

Strange times.

Edit: It is the IBM PC lineage I speak of here, not just the ISA.
That's a needlessly specific definition for "conspiracy" in common usage, and it's wrong. A conspiracy is a secret plot by more than one person to do something that the speaker (and presumably listener) considers nefarious. Whether that nefarious thing is illegal or not doesn't enter into it, unless you're looking at the specific legal term 'conspiracy to [...]'.
I use DDG for nearly everything and their results are usually good enough, if you are willing to jiggle things a little.

But their biggest foothold is Youtube. There is no other video host that matters, and their back catalog covers everything.
Ah, I know that one!

Easy! Just make it open source and get rid of your livelihood. Make it open core so people will hate you just as much (bonus points if your software can be ripped off by a hyperscaler) or go Red Hat and be 100% open source and basically turn into a consultancy which is not what a lot of people want to do with their lives.

I'm just being sarcastic, in case anyone was wondering.
You've hinted at what I'm trying to understand. What incentives are actually in place that are impacting this behavior? My hypothesis was that the CCP decided it's going to flood the world market with containers by subsidizing them. Maybe that's not what is going on, fine. But what specifically is happening? It sounds like maybe you don't know either.
The devtools is a really powerful debugger. Not sure what needs you don't get by using it.
I won't buy closed source programs with "Linux ports" anymore for this reason: it seems to always mean "some dev got it working on one Ubuntu version once". The last bug of this form I hit was a program trying to read a hardcoded path that apparently exists on Ubuntu and blissfully segfaulting if it didn't exist...
It sounds like mental health care is in a bad state in many places. There is an illusion that the US system means we don't have the difficult waits you describe in the UK... that's not my experience as someone seeking care.

Part of why it took me so long to get treatment (I mentioned that I've been dealing with this for decades) is that 20 years ago I could only afford to get treatment that I knew my insurance company would cover (cover == 80%). I was on two waiting lists... the insurance company's own list and one at Stanford Medical Center. I tried to get on more lists, but I couldn't find any that weren't "full". I checked regularly on the two lists, each time being told I don't have to check as they'll reach out when I'm at the top. I gave up checking after three years and they never reached out. I never got as far as a consult. It's expensive for me now because I didn't go the insurance company's route - I just went straight to a doctor and submitted insurance claims after.

I almost couldn't reach out for treatment this time. I knew I was nearing a point of no return. It felt like reaching out for treatment meant facing potential rejection on my last chance and the added stress made me almost non-functional. That's part of why I describe myself as lucky. I was able to amass the savings needed for treatment before my illness incapacitated me so much that I could neither work nor seek help.

While it's a bad situation that it can take years to get ongoing treatment in a system like the UK's, I still would have had treatment many years earlier. Things need to improve all over if we actually want to make progress on homelessness. We need approaches to get people off the street. But we also need to have better systems in place that reduce the number of people ending up on the street in the first place. I don't believe that remediation without prevention will do much to reverse current trends.
Secretly colluding in backroom deals to intentionally hamstring privacy protections seems pretty unambiguously... bad? Can you explain how anything Microsoft or Apple has done has worse implications for society?
Or maybe the easier it is to end up homeless, the more homeless you get.

Between wages and housing costs, it's unclear to me how ~half of SF isn't homeless.

I'm not sure people whose goal in life is living in a tent under the freeway exist in any significant numbers outside of the imagination of libertarians.
Agreed, but I’ve noticed that over the past few years there’s been a shift away from talking about implementing some socialist policies into capitalism and towards the irredeemably of the capitalist system. At least that’s been my experience among my liberal circle. I think it’s the influence of the growing far left movement, who are now the cool kids on the left. The word “liberal” is a pejorative to them; synonyms with someone who defends the status quo, which is deeply uncool.
The average HN user is more likely to use Firefox and have 2+ Google accounts than the average person. Very straightforward stuff.
The very first iPod had a clickwheel. It took a few generations before it was touch sensitive instead of a physically rotating wheel.
> The harder part is executing on the above strategy. You will need new institutions or see an expansion or extension of existing institutions. Imagining the FCC trying to do this seems both a likely approach and an incredibly ineffective one.

I completely agree and that's what scares me more and more about big tech. We let these huge companies grow for years without really considering the scalability of managing them and now we find ourselves desperately needing to regulate them but not really knowing how.

It reminds me of the content moderation problem with Facebook, the cost of hiring enough humans to adequately deal with content moderation there would quite possibly bankrupt the company, and they know that.

How do you find a sustainable oversight/regulatory strategy when the companies themselves were founded largely on their desire to not figure out those kinds of problems in the first place?

I think it's an indicator of how bad other brands are. I bought my first Thinkpad in 2019 and (with the exception that its battery is internal) like it way more than my previous HP (1), Dell (1 personal/3 work), and Asus (2) laptops.
It always blows my mind seeing the things people who work at google/fb are willing to "walk out" / "protest" over, and then these insidious things they're willing to just sit back and let happen.

When I moved to the bay area working at FB/Google was something I held in high regard and was a career goal of mine. Now I get hit up by recruiters from them often... and I don't message them back. It hurts thinking about how much money I leave on the table by not working there, but I just don't think if I could live with myself if I became a contributing member of their dystopian nightmare machine.

It all starts with the people who work there. If you work at google or facebook, you're part of it. You're culpable. It's not like I don't understand the calculus and not like the right dollar amount wouldn't corrupt my position as well, but I wish more people were honest/forthright about it. You're a storm trooper.
Pretty sure conspiracy only implies harm, not crime. Otherwise "criminal conspiracy" is pretty redundant.
It doesn't matter how strongly you believe in your work.

The law (at least in the United States) is "innocent until proven guilty". Until it goes to court, they are presummed innocent.

The phrase "alleged" is put in to all reputable journalists work because they follow the law.
That's really good - I'm going to have to try this! Thanks
Death is death.
Hey!

It's just yet another way to read a book, that can be useful in some cases and can make the reading more interesting and clear.

The idea was initially simple - split it to read it. Reading paragraph by paragraph might help you to read more slowly, carefully, and deeper.

Also, I've added a lot of themes, fonts, and effects to let anyone set up their own style of reading.
How is that relevant? You think amateurs are going to solve this mystery disease where top experts have failed so far?
Did you ever think to yourself maybe the reason so many people are anti-(Covid)-vaxxers is not that they're brainwashed? Its that the anti-vaxx people may have a point?

Many major scientific breakthroughs were made outside of the 'institution of science' and peer reviewed papers.

Joseph Lister discovered antiseptic theory during routine medical practice and was mocked at first by other doctors who didn't want to switch instruments between surgurys.

Galileo was excommunicated for going against mainstream science.

But both of their ideas won out in the end.

If you need censorship and coercion of any sort to force your ideas on people, if to need to limit the avenues which ideas are shared .. you need better ideas.
Sounds great until the little complication of needing money to live.

Well, you make my point. What you linked to is definitely not telemetry.
What exactly do you have in mind. Using '&0xff' is annoying but well whatever. Perhaps 23y ago, applying the bitwise and would be a novelty but now it's a minor inconvenience.

The way java is built in internally I can quite see another primitive type popping up.

Lavabit gave the feds the decryption key, and contents to every email for every user on their server.

Awesome hackathon project. The font scroll is great 90s website nostalgia.
I think the difference is:

With a game that supports Linux, you get people who have chosen to run Linux instead of Windows because they prefer it. They have also worked enough with their system to get their Linux system capable of running games well, which may not be trivial for the given distro.

With a Wordpress plugin or whatever, you get people who are running Linux because they "have" to. Trying not to sound "true Scottsman"y here, but most of the time these are not actually Linux users, these are Windows users who are further confounded by having to use an unfamiliar platform.
Was going to say this, it works so well as you can plan your tasks around meetings. For example, you have a 30 mins spare slot between meetings, use it for some minor admin task. The big empty slots for some programming task where you want to get a good amount of focus on coding.

The last ipod nano must be one of the most beautiful products that Apple ever made. A fantastic screen, unrivalled touch and extreme thinness conspire to make it an audio player that nothing else even approaches. It's tragic that it's such a dead end now. I hope one day Apple revives it because it's one of the most complete products out there. (more memory wouldn't hurt though)
I bought this game because I appreciate good devs and want to encourage linux support in gaming.

I've had TSA confiscate my mini swiss knife (1 inch blade)... #-/
> since few will recognize it.

This is I think precisely why this signal is a non-starter. For it to be successful, it seems to require that a large percentage of people are able to recognize it. But if a large percentage of people can recognize it, that logically means the abuser is more likely to recognize it as well.
Also, the process to make a steel knife isn’t really bad. If we were talking about how to make carbon fiber from wood, that would be cool, composites are really dirty to make and do not recycle.

So, cool, but the best use I’ve considered for a wood knife is getting through X-ray, but now you are back to composites being an option.

The market for green circumvention of security measures is probably very small.
Yes, the idea described in the last paragraph could be called an array JIT. Much like a static APL compiler requires specialized type and shape handling, an APL JIT would need some new techniques for deciding when to compile things, what assumptions to make, and how to check them.

My more detailed notes are at https://mlochbaum.github.io/BQN/implementation/compile/dynam....
I think the video call example is a bad example. Someone above linked to a video on Reddit that, I think, shows more likely scenarios where it could be used effectively (though, as stated in other comments, relies on the others knowing the context of the gesture):

https://reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/qeq0fq/the_m...

Edit: reading some of the comments in the Reddit thread, as the article states, this was started in Canada during the COVID lockdown, so the likely scenario there is that you may give the signal out during work/while video chatting with a friend/relative while the abuser is unobservant but within hearing distance.

To your point, this still seems unlikely, but if someone is in an abusive relationship but is still working during lockdowns, I suppose it’s still one way to signal for help.
Everyone was an amateur once, an amateur with determination can certainly see things from angles a top expert doesn’t. There’s plenty of movies telling stories like that, like a father who discovers a new treatment for their kid studying medicine by himself. Never discount a curious and determined amateur.
What are you trying to plan ? I feel a calendar and Apple notes is plenty
This guide is just for hosting locally. If you want to host to the outside internet you also need to do port forwarding on your router. So that when someone connects to your outside IP your router relays that to the pi specifically.

It's not super dangerous, just make sure you keep everything updated (your linux OS, your server software). And make sure that you only open the ports you need to.
A collection of links to studies would be harmless. The site purports to compile data from said studies in a meaningful and complete manner. It very much does not.

There are also issues with some of the studies themselves, but that's a separate issue.
Sour meta comments are boring, especially when they rope in unrelated personal beefs you have with individual users like ocdtrekkie. That was a little much.

Consider posting something like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28977462, which inspired a lot of sub comments and a good on topic discussion, vs yours, which produced “haha Kentucky and South Dakota”, “Microsoft/Apple bad”, “gigantic evil news cabal”, and “HN is dumb”.

If you're on Android I'd be programming in Kotlin in any case.
> You think amateurs are going to solve this mystery disease where top experts have failed so far?

Maybe. I have learned to be skeptical of local government testing. Sometimes people want to avoid finding an answer because the answer could result in a very expensive and litigious fallout.
My guess: this wends through the system long enough that the details end up getting forgotten and confused in the retelling, finally ending in some trivial (relative to these companies' profits) being issued, and the public forgets about it in another year or two.

In other words, this is likely to be the Experian data breach all over again. You remember, right? When the credit files of virtually every working adult in America got released and... nothing happened?
that doesn’t always work. i once hit a squirrel with a football that i was sure it was going to dodge. but after scampering back and forth, it dodged right into the path of the football at the last moment. it didn’t appear to be hurt, and scurried away afterwards, but i still felt really bad about it.
Shareholders are getting anxious.
Hmm yes I guess you might be right given Android. It's a shame in a way that Kotlin was invented as Scala could have filled the niche too imho but that ship has sailed. It's too similar to both Java and Scala and doesn't really bring anything new to the table. Is that fair or does it have a great USP other than massive Google backing?
No one's saying you can't have Chrome installed.

It's really no big deal to open it when you want to watch any of those. I've never heard anyone complaining about switching from your phone's browser to the Netflix app on your phone, so I don't see why opening another browser on your computer is a big deal.
