Even if you don’t enjoy more social hobbies like sports, live music, outdoor activities, etc, try to treat them as a skill to develop. One thing it took me a while to learn is if you want to connect with people you have to have common interests with them, so learn to be interested in whatever’s popular, in addition to your personal hobbies which come more naturally. When I just do what I personally enjoy, I’m the only person who enjoys doing those specific things and other people don’t want to join because they have other interests. Making friends takes some sacrifice, but over time you learn to actually enjoy those activities instead of seeing them as pointless and wasteful.

More practically, I think the easiest way to meet people if you aren’t very outgoing is to join organizations. There should be groups for inter mural sports, volunteering, international clubs, or day hiking trips. May not meet new people every time but eventually you’ll connect with some. Your situation is a lot more common than you might think.
Stick hygiene at top of your list including making sure that your clothes and bedding are regularly washed. You'll feel better for it anyway and if you're feeling ill/under the weather then you've got a good buffer :)
Thank you for sharing you all digital radio project!

It is a nice example of nMigen usage, sadly there are not many ultra-cheap FPGA boards with 5GHz SerDes to try it.
>I'd far rather live in a country where the rulers choose not to start wars for territory, especially if we were the richest country in the World. I'd have guessed that would be common.

If it was common, then they would not have gotten to be the richest country in the world in the first place. The same game plays out over and over in nature where the one that fights for resources gets more of it, and while they can choose to stop fighting for it, in the long run they will not be the survivors.

Cooperation works best if the goal is maximizing the average return over all participants in the game, but inevitably, tribes will split off and start prioritizing their own populations over others. On a global, national, and even familial scale.
I did actually add a way to play a backing track for some drums or similar . It does make it much easier for everyone to stay together .
Botnets aren't smaller (IoT has been quite a boon to them)

& according to https://www.comparitech.com/blog/information-security/ddos-s... their frequency isn't declining

But yes, the larger sites have gotten their shit together so that the cost to DDoS has gone up

Also if you have a botnet you now have to ask: do you want rent out DDoS or do you want to mine crypto?
Why Is Python Popular?
No?! It can be debugged but experience is needed.
Converting a text format to a compact in-memory data structure takes extra CPU cycles. (de)compression takes extra cycles. The point of using a binary format is to achieve the same result while avoiding that overhead. For some data formats compression also has the downside that it prevents seeking.
You're welcome! For your personal MX servers, the most cost effective solution I know of would be to have multiple domains and each domain have their own MX records and corresponding VM/server on its own unique provider to isolate them. Then ensure that people/businesses that are important to you know to contact you at 2+ email addresses/domains. If someone attacks one of your domains or MX servers, you can safely ignore the attack. These separate MX servers should be on different server/VPS providers in the event that the attack causes one of them to suspend your account. Your imap client can poll each of the servers/domains so that you get your emails.
I went on the hunt just before posting this to find out more about how many people click on ads and how beneficial they are (for any party, not just the advertiser) and I can honestly say I think it's all lies: the whole industry are lying to one another and, by extension, to the customers.

Now, this is pure anecdotal but every result I found on DDG was from a company that either advertises, consults about SEO/ads, is Google, or otherwise part of the ad scumbaggery somewhere in the chain.

The thing that got me was they all said ads are brilliant (I know, odd, isn't it?). They all had click through figures ranging from a few percent to 35%. Are you kidding me? A third of people click on ads?

I couldn't find anything that said ads are shit or dangerous or even anything vaguely negative.

Now, I don't see ads. Ever. I have UBlock Origin and privacy badger and other settings to prevent them from showing on my screen but the odd time I setup a PC and have to open a gaping browser, it's such an assault on the senses.

I've asked on here before but is there somewhere out there in the internet that I can see unbiased research on ads. Something! Anything at all?
I think we’re at or even past the point where they could cgi in the smoke, flames and boom rather than risk lives. Either blend real shooting events with the rest of the scene or just ai the thing.

Oh yes, Google are definitely being evil in this situation, but the point I'm trying to make is that the battle-field they're all fighting over has no good guys. Everyone fighting on this field wants the same outcome.

I'm not trying to be universally damning, and I respect Apple's actions in relation to this, but it doesn't change the fact that this is a battle between powers that don't have our individual interests in mind. This is a battle of mind-share.
I would not base it on profit. I'd say a fair fine is income multiplied by three. It should really hurt.

And if you leave your house no amount of armor can prevent you from being assaulted. This is why we have law and social norms that ensure there are consequences for committing assault and we leave our houses mostly without wearing armor.

Ban the tracking. It's like toxic waste, if it's on your servers you're responsible for it. If you do it anyway and get found guilty you are banned from selling advertising for some number of years. The hint of a problem should see a significant immediate drop in the share price. Level playing field, same for everyone, if you can't survive that you don't have a viable business model anymore than any other racketeer whose run ends.
>we either don't have enough physical trucks (I doubt this)

There was a reddit thread in the truckers group around a year back which literally said this: there are not enough physical trucks since trucks have to been maintained and the spare parts for it are not making their way across border fast enough. This meant that owners have to buy new trucks to compensate for their broken down trucks and leading to escalation of costs which means they expect the same person to work 2x to make up for it.

It's a pain to debug. Live editing in chrome made it a 10 minute training task for me last week.
To add to #5, it might be awkward the first time you invite someone(s) to do something, but think about it like this: no one will think less of you for asking them to have lunch with you. There's a really good chance they're too nervous to ask people to go to lunch with them too.

It's really common in social settings where multiple people want the same thing, but are too nervous to ask the other person. A lot of people don't like making the decision or will wait for someone else to say something, but that usually results in nothing. In the end, there's no real downside to asking.

It can be really hard to meet people, but college gives you constant opportunities to, so there's plenty to take advantage of.

Chat with your class mates and once you've had regular conversation with them a few times, ask them to grab food or study together. The amount of friends I've made from study groups was huge, definitely recommend.
I think you are spot on, but maybe for a different reason. The EU has looked at the practices of large tech companies in the USA and decided that the way that these companies are collecting personal information and selling it for profit is something that should be progressively phased out. So not being able to create a company that harvests personal data seems like a win for the GDPR. The next step would be to reign in the large companies that have been able to use their resources to continue the practices that the GDPR has set out to limit.

As a side point, I work in a tech startup in the EU that was founded post GDPR. We have no issues being competitive and also complying with the GDPR, however we do not make our revenue by selling personal data.
Get familiar with firefox / chrome debugger. That is very helpful for me to debug a lot of css issues.
Very cool!

Just a random thing I noticed reading through [1]: you might have a bug in how you calculate the magnitudes of the signals? When you assign the output of the low-pass filters on the high frequency to the input of the magnitude approximator, you assign the imaginary LPF to the imaginary input but the real LPF to also the imaginary input, which I think is incorrect? Since I’m on mobile, it’s easiest for me to show sign a screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/tAQe5Sr.jpg (If that is indeed a bug, I’m curious how that might impact the results!)
Firefox has enabled hardware acceleration in GNOME Shell by default as of versions 84 (X11) and 85 (Wayland), if you are using AMD or Intel graphics.[2] The feature is enabled in KDE Plasma and XFCE by default (X11 only) as of version 88, also for AMD and Intel graphics.[2]

Planes aren't filled solidly, though. They are more like a shell around a volume, so I'd think the mass would rather scale like the surface area than the volume of the plane. Beside that, I would agree that it seems impossible to get such a solution working in dimensions of dozens of meters. A pun: maybe they just took "do things that don't scale" too literally? ;)

Your tooling for interactive hardware development should be standard issue.

However, I would actually make the other claim - nMigen et al don't improve the readability of a hardware block versus Verilog. Verilog does indeed suck for any parametric design though, so the Python metaprogrammability is an obvious win. A dedicated, strongly typed language where the hardware is a first class language feature (or at least appears to be via syntactic sugar/new grammar) would give the best of both worlds in my opinion.

The difficult part is (still) polyglot programs - say, if I have a module written in Silice, which includes a vendor's Verilog block ram model, which is all instantiated by an nMigen harness. LiteX makes this possible (although difficult) to simulate with Verilator, but the quick interactivity of the Jupyter workbench is lost.
I live in a desert and I’m very active outdoors, even in the summer, and you’re totally right about the misjudging of being safe. First is the confusion people have about clothing choice. You can tell the tourists at Death Valley because there in shorts and short sleeves while those that live here are in pants and long sleeves. Also, water consumption as you point out- I do summer hiking/trail running in the mountains around here and it’s trivial to drink a gallon of water. The biggest distance limiter is the weight of the water you need to carry.
>You're really suggesting these stories were being suppressed by the media until now when they started to sell news

No, I'm suggesting it incentivizes journalists to work more on them, whistleblowers to whistleblow more, editors to prioritize them etc.
I'm a fan of regulation where it's necessary. For example, when it comes to things like building sites they are incredibly safe now, thanks to many regulations. I'd argue that they're an absolute necessity.

However, for some things, like website I visit on the internet, the regulation should be all but nonexistent (for the most part, there are likely some things like child porn and generally illegal stuff that should be covered).

And I'm in Scotland, not the US
Reusing storage slots definitely sounds plausible, another possible option is automatically allocating values with the same lifetime into memory arenas, so that you only have to do one alloc and one free for an arbitrary number of objects with the same or similar lifetimes.
Max Schrems' (of the SchremsI and SchremsII court decisions) noyb group is now aiming for sites with non-compliant banners[1], having filed a first round of over 400 GDPR complaints. It will take years before the regulators come up with rulings and those decisions have been litigated, like it usually does, but it's good to see that somebody at least started the process as the regulators themselves have been - as usual - dragging their feet.

Find a library/union with open tables and start camping there. People tend to pick the same areas, eventually chit chat can turn into more. Expand the surface area of your exposure. Take some less nerdish electives.
AFAIR, Haskell do have metaprogramming but not with macros, I remember reading this[0] a few months ago. Maybe I misread the article?

For Rust, I've seen more usage of `macro_rules!` than the other one (so much I did not even know it existed). And it looks a lot like C's #define.

But yeah, my bad, I've been a bit too presumptuous when saying Elixir was the only one.

Awesome! If Linux binaries become available I'll for sure "buy you a coffee" :)

Open sourcing is more to enable people to be able to build the thing in the future with new libraries. OSes move forward every day and something that runs/builds today might not be able to run/build tomorrow, so open sourcing makes sure it's possible to change libraries/API usage if needed.
> Advice on how to connect better with people?

Log off, touch some grass. Put yourself out there. Once you get a few people around you, it's relatively easy to leaver yourself into other friends groups.

> But I've heard everybody talking about Halloween costumes in the past few days and realized I don't need one cause I'll be sitting inside alone on Halloween. I'd like to start fixing this but don't know how.

Just say yes to the next offer you get, you'll only make friends if you expose yourself to other humans. HN is unlikely to be the place where you make real friends.

Specifically about the parties: You can invite yourself easily enough to things - just get them talking about it (i.e. "oh I hear you're having a Halloween party, anything cool planned?") - if you sound interested and talk for a while most people will invite you.

The only way to get good at social interactions is to keep putting yourself in social settings.
But if the rules impact a smaller company’s ability to market against larger and better funded competitors isn’t that an issue as well?

Ultimately my question isn’t about compliance. That is relatively simple. It’s about the downstream effects.
And that more specific rules override the cascade. And once you feel comfortable - try avoid using classes. (never use id)
In my experience this is always the framing. The hard part is figuring out when you're being BS'd.

I agree that a strong founder personality impressing their personal philosophy on the company leads to very different outcomes. I think Google's slow loss of its founders' day to day impact over time is very relevant to this conversation.

I always blame chrome for demise of RSS. When chrome came, all other browser (firefox, opera, even internet explorer) had native RSS view support. To this date, chrome opens RSS as XML garbage e.g. open this in Chrome https://quakkels.com/index.xml

Chrome came, all other browsers lost, then finally Google killed Google Reader and we had nowhere to go. That's how I believe it happened.

What's still worse is that Chrome DOES NOT SUPPORT RSS natively.
The only way to get everyone to participate in a solution will be regulation. The last thing that I want is the government regulating this market. We will end up with another cartel like the oil industry.
Don't be sitting inside alone, get a good sleep, and be alone happy. What's the problem with that?

Not just Apple privacy, but dominating the entire online ad industry. Jedi, but the dark side clearly. Also amazing how self aware they were about how bad this would look if it got out.
Would you rather tweets or action? Because she has only provided one of those things. The party thinks she's a joke, and allows her the associated amount of influence in policy direction (zero). Nancy Pelosi is a 700lbs counterweight to AOC, ensuring she's irrelevant.
And the "further up the chain" you can move the mitigation, the easier that is. Mitigating on your box requires a huge pipe to your box, but if your provider can mitigate at their border router, well those are bigger and already have huge traffic to and through them.

And it's in their interest to talk to their providers and mitigate even further back if possible. And some mitigations are relatively easy (block all DNS traffic to this subnet, etc).
Friends are made through shared experiences. The more intense the experience, the more durable the friendship. Figure out what you love doing and then find others to do it with. You may have to take social risks a few times to make the initial connection, but keep at it. It’s worth it. You may also need to be the catalyst for others who are in the same situation as you, if there’s no social group, club or platform for you to connect.

>if you were broadcasting news you had to present both sides of controversial issues.

Down here in Texas, we have a law where teachers have to teach both sides of controversial subjects. So, of course, someone is teaching both sides of The Holocaust.

Because it is controversial. And that is the law.
True friendship comes mostly from shared struggle. Think sports teams, military, small teams at work, even childhood friends and the experience growing up.

It is hard to establish anything meaningful of a connection with casual interactions, and expecting to just "party/play hard" with people you don't really know is putting the cart before the horse. First you must work hard together.

I'd suggest joining a Crossfit gym or similar. I've had great success meeting people within the context of group workouts. It has regular class schedules, and provides a way to ease into social interactions at your own pace as you'll be around the same people regularly. Often this leads to opportunities to do things together outside of the classes.

Additionally, there are likely individuals with similar disinterest in the common activities you mentioned in you CS classes. Finding opportunities to work with someone on class assignments, studying or projects together would fall in the "shared struggle" category.
City of London Corporation, Gibraltar, Jersey, British Virgin Islands, South Dakota... I'm intentionally ignoring honeypots such as Cayman Islands, Delaware, Panama etc.
Understanding nature is something a lot of people talk about, but it's not obvious to me that it is possible. As in, not possible at all, at exactly the same level as what you are referring to.

Put simply: there are a lot more possible states in a giant universe than in an individual ape's brain, or even in a collective system made up of many such apes. Wouldn't information theory tell us that we can never represent the larger system inside the smaller one? Or if we do represent it, it has to be as a model that is necessarily incomplete?

Some things are not a matter of opinion. The "plandemic" reality you have constructed in your head is not actual reality. What the horse paste eaters are doing is like having an opinion against gravity and jumping from a height to show their faithfulness to an unreality.
insert yourself into conversations and suggest some low touch followup like coffee. go to all the events and know the schedule of events to share with others. essentially find you in someone else. my favorite thing in college was starting a club, its a great opening line.
