I also learn a lot from podcasts. I've learnt so much from my favourite, The Ezra Klein Show, that I built full-text over some of its transcripts to help reinforce my learning: https://search.rememex.org/

I plan to slowly expand the number of podcast episodes that I have indexed to include multiple podcasts and thousands of episodes. Currently it's about ~100 episodes.

For those that are skeptical of why you'd want this, I'd say that I regularly enough find my brain pulling out information that I heard in a podcast episode that I wanted to have the transcripts easily searchable to verify and reinforce my memory.

I've been working on bringing the managed services (which is still somewhat lacking though Hetzner has LoadBalancers) now to places like Hetzner and OVH. Right now I'm planning on starting with Redis/Memcached and S3.

If this seems like something you'd be interested in I'd love to hear from you (email in bio). If you don't have the time to write an email but maybe take a most-questions optional survey:

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfyhBThpC2mYubNPQaK...

I plan on getting a small landing page up to collect people who want to be first to try it out tonight/tomorrow at the latest.

I'm most excited about Hetzner going US because I think they're going to really shake up the stagnant (high) prices for dedicated compute in the US.
I understand that familiarity is TS' selling point, but that dreadful I-word was actually used against me when trying to introduce these unions. For whatever reason, some people don't find the syntax very natural at the moment. With no standard convention around the tag's name (it is `kind` in the linked PR, but I've seen it specified in many other ways), my suggestion came across like a cute self-invented gimmick rather than a fundamental concept in programming. Others had trouble differentiating the tag's literal type from a vanilla string due to the quotes.

If some of the noise were eventually removed and tagged unions became true first class citizens in TS' syntax, I think some of these colleagues without as much typing experience might be more open to the idea—or at the very least understand it in the first place.

>No, they are participating in an oppressive system. If they were not aware of its oppressive nature, it would be hard to fault them.

Shaming children with accusations of privilege and taking away opportunities from them based on the color of their skin is effectively faulting them.

>The purpose of efforts to introduce a more honest educational overview of our country's history with racism

There was nothing insufficiently honest about how we were taught about slavery, racism, and jim crow. What is dishonest is overemphasizing these past transgressions as though they are the most important lessons for white kids to learn. What is dishonest is, in practice, teaching white kids to be ashamed of their heritage, forbidding them from taking or expressing pride in their history by focusing so exclusively on the negative, and overtly blaming whiteness and white culture while simultaneously pretending that this isn't equivalent to blaming white people.

If an ideology is so trivially and ubiquitously corruptible then there is a problem with the ideology. And this is obvious given that, as a critical theory, it is explicitly designed for the sole purpose of exploring the interaction between so called white supremacy and social outcomes. As a college level elective it may be justifiable to teach; as a tool in primary school classrooms it is exclusively a vehicle for anti-white indoctrination and, frankly, your dishonest apologism is offensive to me.

And apparently also to so many of the parents who are being slandered as merely opposing it because Fox told them to; I have part white nephews. I hear what they are being taught in school. I hear how they are being effectively blamed and expected to act for the sins of past people who shared their skin color. I recognize what kind of effect this sort of toxic, racist rhetoric will have on the self esteem of young white boys. And if you listen to great intellectuals like DeAngelo and Kendi, that is the purpose: to knock whitey down a peg. Nothing good can come of this.

PaX and W^X use segmentation on x86. x86 code segments were by design and definition non-writable--you couldn't write to any region in a code segment unless a writable data or stack segment overlapped the same region. This was a deliberate feature of the hardware that happened to go unused in favor of flat memory models in the most popular operating systems.
This coming on the heels of that other court ordered disclosure is not a good look for ProtonMail.
Super happy to see this released, and also for all the kids getting started programming on Roblox learning that there is a better way than random tag-checked mush :-)
Good on you all!
I think ProtonMail changed after about a year. That's when I suddenly could no longer create new accounts with tor unless I linked a phone number or "real" email address (gmail/etc).

Around the same time they also changed the system so that password recovery was easier to do. This means they were now generally able to unencrypt your emails without your password.

The last secure email provider was the original Lavabit.
This looks like a nightmare. The problem is if you gather all of the lowest people in one building, it becomes hell on earth. But if you disperse them, you have a building full of decent people and one person who writes tags on the hallways and leaves trash around. So the rest of the building rightfully wants that one individual kicked out and you end up at homelessness again.

You also have no leverage against these people. For normal people you can threaten them with fines, etc. But for some people, they have nothing to lose and do not care about any punishment you apply.

:D I know a lot of organizations that conspire with the CIA - probably including FSB, Iranian intelligence, and possibly my hair stylist .... The CIA also probably uses UTF-8, TCP/IP, various RFCs, Facebook, 120V power, and RJ-45 ports (actually, a large institution with loads of legacy tech might not be using UTF-8 in many circumstances, on the other hand they do handle a lot of international data ...). I can't tell you how I know that, though.

We've gone back to an anti-science society where experimenting with bodies has become taboo again.

Yes it was a fuckup that his wife didn't understand what was happening. And I'm sure his intention was not (up to) $500 tickets. But Universities are not doing this for free either, even in their exclusive club it cost big dollars. One would hope he'd have agree to this if he knew it was available and the alternate was being wasted by being buried.

Yes, more transparency was needed.

Just out of interest was yours a Sapphire branded 9800 Pro? The fan died in mine and the only bad behaviour it exhibited was that it overheated in games (Half-Life 2 and Unreal 2 were the big killers), for anything else it was perfectly usable in that crippled state.
There's probably more "official" ways, but you're allowed to do whatever you want to get people's attention, within election laws.

I met a guy disc golfing once who got like, 10% of the vote for a state district senate seat just by getting his name on the ballot. Then he went and shook a bunch of hands and talked to people _at_ the election place to get people to vote for him (against the election laws xD) though people did.

You just need to be known. Tape poorly made signs everywhere, shake hands, go on local TV. A local judge got elected who was mostly unknown save for a very popular local Christian television channel and the news did a story on her cause she just never showed up to serve and they couldn't boot her out.

400mg seems like a lot to me. Most energy drinks have less than 200mg and come with a recommendation that you only have 1 or 2 a day.
I agree with your example, but the number cited is not for innate genetic predisposition. It includes including the effects environmental factors have on a person's gene expression.

Some of these may be relatively uniform through the population, but manifest due to different environmental factors.

e.g. Child abuse could cause epigenetic changes to gene expression associated with a drug predisposition. This may be conserved between individuals.

Some may interpret the explicit shielding from legal liability of the vaccine manufacturers by the Federal government to be an acknowledgment that risks are high enough to require such protections. Else why implement the liability shield? And why set the standards for establishing harm to qualify for compensation from the Feds so much higher for COVID than for previous vaccine claims? Why the higher court costs and the shorter window to qualify? (NVICP vs. the COVID CICP)

The industry pretty clearly doesn’t want their money at risk from damages resulting from release of their COVID vaccine product. Following the money is often an insightful strategy in these complicated issues. It “cuts to the chase” and rarely leads to nonsense.

Which speaks to the “may very well harm them”.

And that’s OK if the vaccine is voluntary and you are a knowledgeable adult. You assess the benefits and risks and make your choice. And we can be grateful to the pharmas for their hard work in making the option of vaccines available.

Not so OK if you are a child and there is a government mandate. There was a neologism back in our day…Califascist. Seems applicable.

I don't agree with this.

The smaller the company and the closer you are to the owners, the more your relationship with them is that of a tool. A disposable and replacable tool.

When you work for a larger company (assuming you are providing more value to the company than your employment is costing them), your job is secure. Your day to day is relatively comfortable. You are also likely to be surrounded by more peers which contributes greatly to job satisfaction. You belong.

Look at it this way. If you notice your postman one day looking at his phone for a bit instead of delivering mail, you probably arn't going to get too bent out of shape over it. While you are paying taxes to employ his services, you're not too invested in his productivity.

On the other hand, if you've hired a plumber and you're paying him $150/hour, discovering him taking a personal phone call is worrying. You're directly paying for every minute he's on the phone. You aren't happy and the next time you need a plumber, you'll be considering your options.

Now consider taking an emergency phone call as the employee:

If you are a plumber working directly for an owner/customer, taking an emergency phone call is stressful. The customer/owner is JUDGING you because it's his money paying you. That phone call is more likely to negatively affect your livelihood.

If you are a plumber working large company, your foreman is probably more interested in not losing you and having to spend time replacing you. Your wages aren't coming direcly out of HIS pocket, so he's more invested in believing your phone call is reasonable. He WANTS to believe that.

I've worked for a dozen small companies (20-100 employees) and a couple large companies (200-10000 employees). My job satisifaction has been much, much higher at the two large companies.
I had the same thought, especially towards the end of the article when he described how he listens to a podcast with his wife, while grocery shopping.

While I'm certain grocery shopping isn't the most mentally stimulating form of activity, it's still "quiet time" (relatively, anyway) that my brain craves.

I remember growing up before smartphones were ubiquitous. I never had an iPod or mp3 player, so I'd just be alone with my thoughts for 40 minute bus/subway rides. It sounds like torture today, but I actually look back on that with some bittersweet jealously... simpler times.

I reviewed the situations that I listen to a podcast (there are quite few):

1. In the car, because it beats listening to radio commercials
2. Washing up at night, because I hate washing dishes but putting something on distracts me enough to power through.

The early times middle school and high schools kids need to be at school is terrible. Not to mention numerous studies showing the impact of sleep on academic abilities. Let the kids sleep in. My kids start school by 8:45am. They seem to love it and aren’t sleepy, they don’t need an alarm but they are young.
I don't think the framing of "real" or not is useful here - whether it maps to one or many underlying conditions (or even in the IMO unlikely event it always mapped to some other established condition), the symptoms are real for the people diagnosed with it, and unless there's a more useful set of criteria that match, it's reasonable to use as a shared descriptor.

A few years ago, I had a fun experience - all of a sudden, I was absurdly exhausted (not just "tired", but "physically could not reliably get out of bed sometimes") from the time I woke up to the time I went to sleep, independent of how much I was sleeping (or the quality of the sleep), or what I ate, or [...]. I didn't have headaches, or fever, or anything else, I was just perpetually exhausted.

As it turns out, I came back with a suddenly positive mono test where I had never had one before, and once a few weeks passed, it did too. But it gave me some reference for how it feels to be perpetually not just mentally but physically exhausted, with the potential of it never ending (since mono can have permanent repercussions, as someone I know discovered).

I think "post-viral syndrome" is the term getting traction now for "long COVID" and post-mono consequences and the like, but AIUI the criteria are the same save CFS not requiring an infection as a trigger event.

For the brain it's pretty damn quick (minutes before significant damage). heart transplants rely on being able to run an artificial heart and lung machine to oxygenate and pump the blood while the heart is stopped, removed, and replaced.
Multiple still tie user to specific devices. It will not work on a friends machine (unless user memorises the shared secret used for hashes).

TOTP is essentially a glorified password (which is the shared secret), only so long that the user presumably does not remember it, so it is taken as a representation of a trusted device access. TOTP / HOTP are close to manual CHAP.

I don't feel two passwords (the real password and TOTP shared secret) are better than one.

Only if you've been not looking through e.g. the entire history of the NHTSA. Comparing horseless carriages under modern safety regulations to horse-drawn carriages not subject to those is a huge confounder. (And 1997-2000 sounds like a cherry-picked period; motor vehicles have been redesigned to kill significantly more pedestrians since then).

Not apple but I recently wanted to get some work done on fiverr. The dev completed the stuff and when it was my time to pay, I couldn't. No card I used worked. RBI international stuff. I tried like 5 banks cc with international payments turned on.

I asked support and the dev for crypto and they banned me for soliciting third party payments.

I have been unable to find either an Indian dev for a small job or someone who can accept crypto.

Talk about fiverr support. Smh

Starting too early might not be the best move (though parent has a point on better auditability), but doing it at the last minute or once the product is plenty mature also means a ton of needless changes that can be disrupting depending on how the product was built/managed.

Perhaps it would make sense to at least know and understand the certifications as early as possible, and grow with it in mind. It makes it a lot easier to get certified when times come, or even to explain clients why it wouldn't be required in some cases ("we can already guarantee you this and that, if that's the part you're worrying about")
Maybe. Another case is LinkedIn.

I'm not disagreeing, but the advances in medicine between the periods mentioned should be kept in mind. A more precise comparison might be, how many fatalities occurred at the site of the accident, that would remove quite a few other variables.
