Pretty sure you can edit most office documents in google docs via the browser without issue. Only additional step would be uploading them to Google Drive.
And they will never survive against traditional hierarchical organizations that come bearing force. Like, say, any government on the planet. They are only allowed to exist within a frameworks of domination. They would never survive at scale and against an organized opponent.
In all fairness we need the fastest memset on every architecture. Whatever the cost of maintenance.
Also the mobile application Citizen, which is fucking cancer. It alerts to any little thing that happens and trains you to be in a constant state of paranoia. You thought the local news was bad enough? Now you have that shit in your pocket. And they fucking now hire rent-a-cops. In a normal country, this shit would be shut down immediately. But given that our federal government has quasi-failed its populace, not surprised it's allowed to flourish.
"Ehm, I wanted to tell you, you know, eventually (...)" <- this are three to five seconds I'm not getting any information, but if it would be text, my brain would skip this unimportant part instantly. This is why I never listen to voice messages. If it's important to be expressed with your voice, then call.

>You can read fast enough to churn out information, but you need to wait for every second to digest the information in a voice call.
This can happen, but I can reread the message or just parts of it fairly easy. With voice messages it's getting annoying when you need to rewind to a specific part of it, especially if the message is 2-3 minutes long.

And there is also the audio quality and background noise, but it's a different topic.
I was getting something from my trunk the other winter. I parked on the street. I saw some light flashes but thought they were just some cars passing by or something.

Turns out it was the Tesla parked behind me that was automatically flashing lights at me. There was nobody in that car.

I wonder if it's even legal here to install a camera in a public place like that?

This is where I am at. Watching savings from a liquidity event get eaten away. At the same time not trusting to dump into a very highly valued market. GLD, Crypto, Land, Oil, Food. Odd thing i have been buying is old steel body trucks, 1990 to 1998 - Single cab, 8' bed. My wife is not happy with this, but i see it as a great way to park 5 to 30k in a physically investment. Problem is, I don't want to store 100-300 of these.

Anybody have any other ideas?
That's pretty much the story of One Punch Man
I agree completely with that added nuance. Cloud infra is definitely overused and is sometimes seen as the only option these days, even for the simplest of projects. Having your own metal is often times much more convenient and cheaper. Plus it's much more enjoyable to work with.

My only gripe was with your gross over-simplification that read like "hurr durr, my server hasn't gone down this year, so self-hosting has better uptime than Google". It's such an unnecessary and baseless argument.
Well, now you have the exactly equivalent problem of managing your environment variables.

What is better depends on your tooling.
Very long URL will probably cause something else to break though.
David Brin's "The Transparent Society" is an interesting read for a couple of reasons.

One is how many things have not come to pass... Given that it was printed in 1998, we've had over twenty years to see predictions not come to fruition.

But another is his prediction of this precisely: that in a world where cameras, data recording, and analysis is cheap and easy, the big question is who will control their use: governments, individuals, non-government groups, or some mixture of the three. The one thing we can basically guarantee won't happen is a return to the pre-surveillance days... Like the car, these technologies cause society to re-organize around them such that those who don't have access to them (or try the Luddite approach of refraining from using them) have less power and eventually become marginalized.

So the question becomes: "What is the best way forward," not "How do we get back?"
I think this is more the distribution of surveillance capacity rather than policing itself -- the police have retained the monopoly on violence, and seem relatively content to push the burden of investigative work onto private citizens (with all of the petty erosion of privacy that results).

I don’t think your experience contradicts what the parent comment said. If you won literally every DotA match you played and were very sure you’d win future ones, my guess is you’d probably grow tired of the game pretty quickly. It was the real possibility of losing that made winning rewarding.
That’s disingenuous.

I’m not opposed to sleeping in parks. Like, sure, take a nap. But no, you can’t live there.

Take a look at the homeless camps in Seattle parks and greenbelts. That’s not staying out of anyone’s way. There’s nothing harmonious about it.

Basic services are mandatory in camping areas. Without bathrooms we get human waste accumulation and runoff. Without trash service we get fires. This isn’t hypothetical. Go look around Seattle.

Dictating what is done with public spaces is absolutely valid. That is how civilization works. It’s why we even have public spaces.

Without rules on what’s allowed in parks they’d be developed into something else.
> These jobs will be lost anyway.

Job lossess can be minimised with proper planning by the economists and the industry. For example, some of the ancillary units could be converted to serve the EV sector. The rest could be converted to other manufacturing industries. All this require time and proper planning by the government and industry leaders.

> It's only a matter of time, and then the question is are they going to be lost to Toyota's EVs, or foreign EVs?

Temporary protectionist measures can be taken to not allow foreign EVs until the Japanese automobile industry is ready to compete with them. And note that EV technology is not complex and is readily available. That is why Tesla and others try to differentiate themselves by offering "self-driving" tech in their EV.

Yes, but while great for telling a browser how to render that tree, it's not an efficient way of mentally representing a frequently-updating app-driven UI.

What devs are really rendering is a tree of components, laid out on a canvas. There's no reason they should have to think in terms of how those components are managed or represented in lower-level HTML, any more than in binary.

The full specification for the AWK language is 40 pages in the book written by the authors.

I sometimes forget the exact syntax for pipes and file open/close, but it's not hard to find in 40 pages.

AWK is in busybox, and a lot of other places that Python simply cannot go.

The control structure syntax is also the same a C/JavaScript/PHP/C++ etc., so it certainly does not hurt to know it.

> This is just how software works

It's not. It's just how spyware works, but software doesn't need to be that way. It may right now be, but this doesn't make it right. Or inevitable, like a force of nature.

My free, open source software doesn't silently gather data about me (and if it did, I would patch it). We have a right to run our software on our own machines, on our own terms.
Everything is automated at this point. I'm a one of the big tech companies and a recently received a message from a recruiter that my [completely unrelate to product] experience at [current company] made me a great candidate to build [product] at [new company].

No, but AWS and Azure offer Windows clients you can RDP into.
I always liked the term "search engine client" better (vs 'metasearch engine'). In essence it is a product that can connect to different search indexes.

An "email client" does exactly the same thing, connects to different email servers and we do not call it "metaemail".

edit: just realized that with the current hype around metaverse, 'metasearch' will probably be more appropriate for something searching the metaverse in the future.

I'm sure you're going to find you niche @rmoon.

I'm not in your target group, since in a case of being threatened I’d rather write a quick and dirty dead man’s switch myself, nevertheless people less technical than me could benefit from the service.

An idea for you to consider: at least in Europe, in the last couple of years on the enterprise software market Emergency Notification Systems (mass notification, incident management, etc.) are a big thing. A lot of governments in the EU either already deployed an ENS system, or consider doing so (it might be the case that they are obliged to do so, IDK).
I can see how a service like yours could complete an ENS for a gov org for instance by supplying an emergency passwords / sensitive data sharing in the time of crisis. Usually ENS systems don’t offer that capability – they’re only about re-setting an org structure after a disaster, etc. IMO sensitive data redistribution could be an important factor in a crisis situation, and from what I’ve seen almost no one on the client’s side think about it beforehand… They solely rely on software vendors to deliver everything.
Do your research. ENS are needed in many places: military, gov agencies, corporations, police, border services, fire deps.
(also take a dive into mobile devices management suites [MDM], since they’re often a part of ENS deployments)
Good luck!

Git (VCS in general) seems like this absurd accidental secret of our profession.

I use Fusion360 occasionally for hobby stuff, and its version 'control' is a joke, it's unfathomable to me how (especially since they're fellow engineers, technical people!) people can use and collaborate with it to build serious stuff.

I think there's a lot of money to be made and a potential huge turning point in end user software for figuring out 'git for non-technical users'. People will argue it's not even good for SEs (I happen to like it) UI sucks etc. but that's not the point, it's fine, GUIs exist, that'd be an easy problem if everything was stored in plaintext. The key will be in figuring out how you make it attractive to people building software for such users, that they want to use your VCS mechanism, that it's easy to do so and doesn't require plaintext diff-sane on disk format (if they wanted/were willing to do that they would already and git would be fine).

Perhaps some kind of CRDT (or similar) based collaboration/storage/version control service, with APIs such that you can have whatever proprietary format you want on top of it, but under the hood it handles sync, multi-user, merges, reversions, rebases, cherry-picks, diffs, etc.

If you really want to get paid for developing open source, nowadays you pretty easily can. But that likely won't be your own code.
Well, that is kind of the point of the show. Even the best sex education classes fail to grapple with actual people having sex. And that's before you get into the downright harmful ones like abstinence-only.

(I had assumed that abstinence-only was just a US idiocy, until I saw it depicted on the show.)

Actual sex education would be really difficult to teach. You can't teach intimacy or pleasure through a lecture. You can't communicate all of the many, many ways there are to have a healthy sex life without showing people doing it. And people will be embarrassed because they've all been brought up to think that these are private things, so there's no way to talk about them in public.

If the show fails, it's in the fact that it's easy to criticize the way we teach without really depicting what a proper sex education structure would look like. It's obvious that we need to do away with abstinence-only; that's just clearly idiotic. We also need to move beyond the sex-education-as-reproductive-biology class, which is what I got. It would be great if we could all have a private therapist, but that seems unlikely.

At the very least, it would be good to have an honest discussion of assault and consent. I don't know what that looks like in schools now; I gather it's better than when I was in high school but not nearly good enough.
Ho, learn something new everyday, thanks! Also, for anyone else reading this found this elsewhere and is applicable [https://pkware.cachefly.net/webdocs/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT]

Basically all of these things are teething problems. The early adopters have problems, the problems get solved, then they're solved for everybody.

What's going to be interesting is how attorney client privilege interacts with the third party doctrine and proprietary systems increasingly moving your documents to The Cloud, often without telling you or making it obvious that it's happening.

That could drive early adoption by law firms that don't want to be the first to get burned by that.
> The car manufacturers would surely just buy their way into the front of the line, if it was just this. Chips are a fraction of a car’s value and the cost of stopping car production lines must be a lot higher than buying slots in s chip production facility.

There is no excess capacity at fabs, so if someone buys their way to the front of the line, the fab is going to miss delivery dates on all the contracts it currently has.

Fabs do have that option, but it's going to cost an enormous amount. Automakers have to pay enough that the fab makes enough money to compensate for the loss of reputation (it won't be a secret that they let someone skip the line), even after subtracting any contractual fees brought about by missing delivery dates on other contracts. That's why you aren't paying slightly more, you're paying orders of magnitude more. I would also be unsurprised if everyone who can get in an order is paying a little extra to raise the contractual fees for missing a delivery date.

A single jumped order can make 100 other contracts deliver late. That's a lot of fees.
This bike has the added benefit of being theft resistant - on the basis that it's too heavy for one person to lift. Seriously though, what does it weigh?

With a typical sized Dutch man, stopping from full speed is going to be a real test of the brakes...

For the same reason I don't like scooters on bike paths, I wouldn't want this sharing a bike path with me. When heavy fast vehicles and regular bikes collide, the regular biker usually suffers more.
> I wonder if it's even legal here to install a camera in a public place like that?

Depends on where you are, if you're on private property, and how your nation defines 'reasonable expectation of privacy' if they define such a thing at all. In a lot of North America, as long as you're in public and the camera is in public, it is entirely legal.

Perhaps, not unlike the NRA originating from a perceived need to educate the citizenry widely on how to use firearms, a "National Observers Organization" is called for to help citizens self-organize, promulgate knowledge, and spread good security practices?

I'm going to leave the naming up to someone else; "NOO" doesn't seem a great acronym for a popular organization.
Former AOLer here. It was to stop Microsoft. This was the third time Microsoft tried to take out AOL. They tried saying that they were running on MacOS earlier but in that case TCP fingerprinting was added to the Mac client logging path and windows looks different from Mac at the TCP layer. Sequence numbers if I recall.

We didn’t feel it was bad to buffer overflow our own code, since it was client code we wrote in the first place. Later client versions had some sort of “checksum this range of virtual memory and return the checksum” and the buffer overflow fixed.

As far as GAIM the dev team didn’t care about that, and efforts to stop it were pretty much half hearted, if I recall. We ended up hosting an end point “toc.oscar.aol.com” to let things like the TCL client and the elisp client work. We couldn’t convince people to release the protocol specs for the full Oscar protocol unfortunately.
Not at all. I've posted in the paste and the ideological mob who's already made up their mind to "trust the science" - toeing the mainstream narrative that "the science is decided" - assuming that there's consensus when there isn't - just brigade, and then most comments get hidden. It's tiring, and a flaw of most online forum structures have, allowing ideological individuals who don't actually care about the scientific process or finding the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

For multiple services, we've been seeing more and more services adopt JWT-based models for SSO. We have a Hasura integration where we'll generate the JWT necessary for authenticating queries:
https://docs.clerk.dev/integrations/hasura

In general, we're pushing for more use of short-lived JWTs to sync identities between trusted parties instead of OAuth. We think this is preferable because it can keep sessions synced, while OAuth tends to result in independent sessions.

Admittedly, we do not run an OpenID Connect server on behalf of our customers yet. This is on our roadmap and will be added soon, and there are definitely some services that we can't offer first-class integrations with until that happens.

Your other point about "every language has an OAuth framework" is well-taken. Our initial launch used something proprietary and this was an issue, but we recently switched to spec-compliant JWTs to benefit more from existing libraries. Here's an example of our current, standard token:

It’s worth considering the status quo of ICE and gasoline fueled mechanical infrastructure which certainly has plenty of casualties and human health problems all throughout the lifecycle. In fact, early on I remember reading that people used to think cars should have only so much fuel in them because they are mobile bombs in people’s homes. But the dangers come from the emissions too and when gas tankers get in accidents and leak fuel into our environment.

Lithium batteries in consumer electronics are not really engineered for a ton of safety but for rapid time to market which is certainly not what I’d like to see for very long. And while shipping lithium batteries a warning label needs to be attached but shipping gasoline and lighter fluid requires special permits and must be transported isolated with certain guarantees by law.

In this respect our current market has deemed lithium batteries to be far safer than gasoline without much need for regulatory pressure to do so.
