At the expense of vulnerable ones?

You can literally use that sentence to quell any free speech just by saying I’m triggered.

If your feelings are hurt, stop reading a particular platform. There are enough groups online you can isolate yourself from any opinion you don’t like.
Actually, no. If you were to hand someone a typed document, you would not know "Ah-hah. I can tell by the e that is precisely 3 nanometers above the line, and the slight smudging of the ink on the qs, that this was written by Joe Schmoe's typewriter, which I have "registered", but which I otherwise do not have access to". You say it yourself; typewriters "develop" quirks, in addition to any they start with, meaning that even if you had collected samples of every typewriter at the time of sale, and had a way to compare a document against all of them (despite this being pre-computer, given the prevalence of typewriters), you would not be able to find a match.

What -you- are describing, is "Was this particular document written on this particular typewriter", which is possible by comparing it against a document you know to have been written by that typewriter, and which I detail in my answer which you didn't fully read ("That (...) would allow you to examine specific typewriters. You may be able to determine a letter was written from a -given- typewriter").

This is identical to ballistics; finding a fired bullet does not tell you the specific gun that fired it (but may tell you the model/make; certainly, it will tell you the type of ammunition it takes). But if you have a bullet of known provenance (i.e., one you fired from a suspect's gun), you can tell if the markings left on the bullets match.

we don't have to crazy and make them Over-the-air updates. unless, the udpates are only going to be applied in sleep mode.
Freezing doesn't kill bacteria. Reliably, anyway.
> Let's take an extreme example. If I build an app on Ubuntu and then try to run it against the system libraries on Alpine, it'll fail, because Alpine is built against a different libc.

I mean, on windows if I use a given libc, say msvcrt or ucrt (or heck, newlib with cygwin) I have to ship it anyways with my app. Linux makes that harder but in practice there's no way around this.
There is no smoking gun kind of evidence because PRC blocked all efforts to properly investigate this. This is obviously a red flag in itself.

There is plenty of circumstantial evidence.
A script is just another command, the only difference in this case is that you wrote it and not someone else. If its purpose is to make changes, and it's obvious what changes it should make without any arguments, I'd say it can do so without further ado. poweroff doesn't ask me what I want to do - I already told it by executing it - and that's a pretty drastic change.

Commands that halt halfway through and expect user confirmation should definitely have an option to skip that behavior. I want to be able to use anything in a script of my own.
These people aren’t dumb. I am pretty sure they went through a lot of options before settling on a design. Keep in mind that a lot of space devices are outdated by the time they are being deployed.
Dollar Tree hikes prices 25%. Most items will cost $1.25
> When you're running a script, what is the expected behaviour if you just run it with no arguments? I think it shouldn't make any changes to your system, and it should print out a help message with common options. Is there anything else you expect a script to do?

Most scripts I use, custom-made or not, should be clear enough in their name for what they do. If in doubt, always call with --help/-h. But for example, it doesn't make sense that something like 'update-ca-certificates' requires arguments to execute: it's clear from the name it's going to change something.

> Do you prefer a script that has a set of default assumptions about how it's going to work? If you need to modify that, you pass in parameters.

It depends. If there's a "default" way to call the script, then yes. For example, in the 'update-ca-certificates' example, just use some defaults so I don't need to read more documentation about where the certificates are stored or how to do things.

> Do you expect that a script will lay out the changes it's about to make, then ask for confirmation? Or should it just get out of your way and do what it was written to do?

I don't care too much, but give me options to switch. If it does everything without asking, give me a "--dry-run" option or something that lets me check before doing anything. On the other hand, if it's asking a lot, let me specify "--yes" as apt does so that it doesn't ask me anything in automated installs or things like that.
I read quite a bit of news, but unfortunately only speak english.

It is not quite the same - newspapers put out in english by foreign adversaries are usually targeting foreign audiences, so they are not written in quite the same fashion as how American outlets describe regimes in other countries.

The closest I've found is SCMP English in Beijing, which (at least for print) is apparently different (and more slanted) than the English version found in the US.
Can we eat them then?

Let’s say they manage to create a population in Australia. With an ever so small surplus, we could take that and eat it. Prices for legal rhino burger would probably be insane, right? I mean - that and horns are why they are poached. And legal horns could be a thing then, too.

Seems like the best option for any animal’s long term survival is to become human food or amusement.
I'm always amazed that people can keep a secret like this. I don't know if I could resist telling everyone I knew that I did it.

This always reminds me of the 2007 incident on Czech TV, where someone hijacked a weather panorama broadcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ea4eft_3p-I

IIRC the panorama cam was connected to the Internet and had been hacked, so no microwave magic there. Good execution nonetheless...
The Trump administration shut down (denied permits and licensing) 3 times for a natural gas import/export Terminal that was going to be built in Coos Bay Oregon, to connect to the 4' pipeline the feeds Oregon and California.

Yeah at some point, they're running more ads for sponsors because they want more money. Add another sponsor? Increase pay for their employees, buy new equipment etc. But at what point do you say "nah u don't want to support you THAT much, I won't watch the sponsored video"? Like, YouTube already pays them from YouTube premium subscriptions, at what point is the creator now just being greedy?
It's tempting to say that the main reason (for Caucasian American men needing a _reason_ to hang out) is over-exposure to capitalist mass-media - where endless advertising portrays ~all male socialization as being centered around consumption of $Advertiser's products & services.
And now globalization has equalized global workforces with purchase and compensation parity. Costs must rise.

Money is to be made on trade and labor cost deltas, but those eventually, almost thermodynamically, equalize.
Also there's a scene at the beginning where the main character looks up and it's just hanging up there, seemingly stationary. At LEO it should be zapping across the sky (the ISS orbits the Earth every 90 minutes).
Not even at 8000 hz in ZSNES? Also, by setting the frameskip to "2" the games were prefectly playable.
This honestly sounds like a miserable tech stack.
People taking shortcuts is the root of so many problems.
I'm curious what your objection for organizing music in the filesystem is. Even music players packed with library management features need the files to exist somewhere, so organizing things intuitively on the filesystem seems a good starting point. The alternative, I guess, would be importing them into some non-navigable structure like a binary blob? I would think maintaining a persistent index of all the metadata is all you need beyond the individual files.
nothing wrong with RMS? Wow. I can understand people defending him but it's just wrong to say he's without controversy.

Maybe you should follow different people. I fail to see how this is Facebook’s fault.

Unfriend or unfollow people who don’t post what you want to see. Join groups you like.

This is like blaming Netflix for a random show they showed you when you actively give them indications you would like it. All you have to do is add shows you want to your queue.
It has quite a bit of ground clearance despite it's low profile. It's higher off the ground than more popular models like the CR-V, RAV4, Highlander, etc.

It's not necessarily about disliking JavaScript. I can see Node people using this as well, why wouldn't they? Not everyone wants or needs to double their app code by building both a server app and a SPA. I might be exaggerating by "double" but it's for sure a major increase of code.
Github is doing fine without a SPA last I heard.
Doesn't mead production start off by introducing water to the honey?
I'm talking about the discovery process. Will we learn anything we don't know already if NSO isn't required to cooperate? Probably not.
I’m not sure I understand the motivation to avoid JavaScript. I completely understand not wanting 400mb of SPA/NPM nonsense, but otherwise what problem does avoiding JS solve in a webpage?

* Is it because JavaScript is too hard to learn or too unpleasant to write?

* Is it because training people to write JavaScript is too much effort?

* Is it due to a lack of trust in your fellow developers?

* Is it due to challenges in planning or forming architecture?

* Something else?
I haven't seen any science on this, but I'd guess there is about a 0% chance of human->mask->worm->bat covid transmission. Do you have any basis for this fear? Obviously mask pollution is a bit of a problem, but not so much for risk of covid contamination.
> Presumably people are being more careful now

Probably so, but just like hollywood and guns.
Disclaimer: I am a self taught programmer, not a structural engineer or physicists.

What you say is true but with a couple of caveats.

1. Yes it would likely be cheaper to build domed habitats in the desert. But how long will that be the case? In the desert you have to build on top of sand (or dig way down and build a crazy foundation that would likely cost close to a space habitat) and there may be local governments who aren’t keen on random immigrants coming and building giant domes in their territory.

2. Humans have lived on Earth for a hundred thousand years and have barely colonized the most extreme deserts (both frozen and unfrozen.) The reason thus far is because there isn’t a good economic reason to do so. We’re talking about colonizing the solar system, for resources or whatever, so the idea is that colonizing the desert isn’t sufficient.

3. Space is empty right now so we have to bring everything up from the surface. In a future where people have an economic need to colonize Mars it would make sense to have infrastructure in space that allows for mining/etc so that you don’t need to lift 100% of the resources off the planet. In which case, and with decent automation, it may become cheaper to build habitats in space than it is to build buildings on Earth. If it’s early and there is no infrastructure in space there likely isn’t an economic need and thus those who lived there would be doing so for their own pleasure and would pay a premium.

To clarify: My argument isn’t that we should build these habitats or we should colonize anywhere at all. But if people are wanting to colonize Mars it would be cheaper and nicer just to build rotating habitats with Earth like gravity and whatever weather you choose. I know if worked on Mars I’d prefer to live in a sunny paradise orbiting it than live below the surface while only having 1/3 gravity.

Didn't the CIA have a very similar telescope to Hubble that they donated?
I mean can we just get over this already? I feel like the more effort that we spend trying to prove that vaccines work, the more merit the anti-vax movement gains. Can we just ignore those people or simply just laugh at them and move on?
European countries still pay a solid 80% less than in America. How can they ever get talent?
> Applications such as VLC and GIMP which 'ship' with access to whole filesystem permission is an eternal dilemma. Would you rather the authors ship without access to this permission and break app functionality ?

to give a data point, I work with a lot of artists who use Macs and none of them use mac app store apps because of endless issues when accessing the file system
Society survived without SUVs. We have everything delivered in an instant.

We don't need all this crap, and we don't need SUVs to carry it around.
I don't know what you are referring to but plenty of times they link directly to a retailers' website where they don't earn commissions.

It's also a reasonable way for them to make money that isn't:

1. Invasive tracking
2. Nasty ads
3. Direct subscriptions

Take your entitlement elsewhere.
Lobbying and political pressure with the result of this case being used as tool ?
> Also, pure science is the part of eventually getting useful qol improvements that absolutely cannot be done through simple short sighted private research, but proves time and time again to be invaluable

Seems like a good pitch to fund National Labs instead.

National Labs != space.

Unless you have a clear and defined QOL plan then space has proven to be a money sink for the longest time.

The Apollo mission didn't have any clear plan, the Voyager-1-2 missions didn't have any clear plan, Mars missions won't have any clear plan, the ISS didn't have any clear plan, the space shuttle didn't have any clear plan.

Matter of fact it's the opposite of what you claim, if you leave space in the hands of military maybe some QOL trickle down will happen (GPS, Sat communications, ICBMs keeping us safe).

If you leave it in the hands of wide eyed individuals who want to discover exoplanets and clusters which we'll never reach then you'll just throw money down the sink.
Eduardo Saverin sued Facebook for doing that and is now worth $20 billion.
No because that’s not the model of Flatpak. If that library is in a runtime then that runtime is patched and updated. If that library is is part of the application then the app is patched and updated.

Just pretend that all Flatpak apps were statically linked. Would you have the same complaints? Or would you say that version $x of this app is also affected by the CVE?

In one situation you run apt update and another you run flatpak update.

Ask HN: How Do I Take My First Step in UI Design
Not only my first step, but what's the path which I should follow in order to become good at designing my own UI/UX for my products?

I am currently a full stack web developer, and I mostly use templates / pre-made components when working on projects, but I want to start doing my own custom designs.

I am sure that I need to learn the basics of UI/UX design first, then move to a tool such as Figma / XD / Sketch.

But the number of resources online is just too much, I can't weed out the bad ones, and I can't figure out a clear roadmap for myself on how to appraoch my journey?

Your input on the subject would be greatly appreciated.
I do think western culture may be more entertainment centric, as many other countries tend to be more religion centric. Not all of them, of course. But many countries of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East place religion front and center and consequently don't value their entertainment quite as much. In American, for example, a lack of common religion means people relate through the media they consume or the activities they engage in. Culture isn't as moored to age old traditions, but instead people relish in throwing away old traditions and creating their own.
Read the New York Times article. It says that Apple was only able to file this suit because of a court ruling in a similar suit by Facebook and because it was given code that showed it how Pegasus works.

There is nothing at all "telling" about Apple's timing.
What an article. It's rare you find something that has such practical and straightforward advice for managing people (even if those people are your board members).
> A bike is not something most people will live with.

Observations from cities that have actually made tangible improvements to their cycling infrastructure and seen a significant increase in cycling mode share suggest otherwise.

I think the spy hubbles are better examples.

Can you imagine the added complexity for the Hubble design for it to work as space observatory or earth observatory.

I wonder if the he Hubble was myopic because of this.

Dollar Tree can't be beat for things like cleaning supplies, commodity-type CPG items like soap and seasonal decorations-- but those items likely aren't where they make their money (they average a 30% GM, imported trinkets will have higher margin but lower volume than consumer staples). I've spoken to managers at multiple locations and the consensus top category by volume is candy, followed by paper goods. After that, the responses tend to vary.

Things like food are already a bad deal when compared to standard retailers-- they are typically smaller quantities at a much higher price per unit, and the products they carry are more processed so as to reduce costs and increase shelf-life. Then when a 1:1 comparison is made, they are often 30-50% more expensive (e.g. can of chunk light tuna for $1 vs $0.65 or less at Aldi). Going the route of 99 Center or the fast growing Five Below chain where they sell items for under $3 or $5, but with better quality items would have been an interesting approach, but that probably encroaches too much on their "up-market" Family Dollar locations? All being told, I wonder the price elasticity of candy and hyperprocessed foods are.
Awesome? Being a young law-breaking prankster almost universally means being an asshole, in my experience as a once-young once-lawbreaking asshole. To be unembarrassed by it as an adult is to bring into question one's maturity.
Eh, it's not quite the same. There was some foreign paper that described the George Floyd protests as 'tensions continue to rise over the death of an ethnic minority in a agrarian province at the hands of state security forces' that made me chortle when I read it.
The people smart enough to conduct investigations into this know that the only outcomes will be harsher restrictions on lab research stateside without much consequences for China, and thus they are unmotivated.
If you really want a clean slate, I think Elixir & Phoenix is the most promising stack available right now and is worth investing in. Channels, PubSub, Live View, and BEAM clustering can really simplify building interactive web applications. In my experience it has made full-stack engineering much more approachable and manageable for small development teams. The BEAM itself scales well should the need arise and Phoenix does not make many assumptions about what kind of application you are building, so you won't find yourself fighting your framework if your direction changes.

For a more conservative approach, if you are looking to rapidly scale up a team and/or desire a huge ecosystem of packages to use, then I'd say modern Ruby on Rails is the way to go for maximum initial velocity. However, in my experience Ruby on Rails requires a lot of experience and discipline to keep things "on the rails" as you grow your application, and that initial velocity can quickly vanish if you are not careful.

I say this as someone with a good amount of experience with both frameworks.
Voltage glitching for secret/rom extraction has a long and storied history.

It's the basis of how DirecTV cards were compromised in the late 90s/early 00s.
You can’t tell me with a straight face though that there wasn’t a report on someone’s desk that predicted exactly that - the Afghani military collapse. It was likely buried because it didn’t support whatever narrative was required at the time. So.. well funded? Absolutely and with a cherry on the top. Best? Nope. Way too infused with agendas and politics. No offense to the great people who work there.
If I had to guess, it's something along these lines (again I'm just guessing, these are general social sentiments that I observed over the past 2 years):

1. Trump mismanaged the pandemic, this resulted in cognitive dissonance amongst his supporters. (they like him but their brain doesn't like the feeling that it was wrong)

2. A 'convenient' explanation to avoid this dissonance is COVID is a Chinese bio-weapon. They (big bad China) released COVID to make Trump look bad and to kill Americans.

3. Liberals, seeing through this, push back on this generally unsubstantiated claim (at the time and potentially even now) that COVID is a bio-weapon. In the eyes of most, Liberals have taken the side of 'COVID is a natural random mutation, not a lab leak'.

4. Now whether or not it's a lab leak or natural is a political game, where your team wins depending on where the facts finally lie (or if you can manufacture enough support for your 'side').

5. See: Rand Paul v Fauci in various senate hearings about gain-of-function research and funding for a Wuhan lab & generally liberals trying not to talk about it because it would be another example of them 'lying' in the eyes of conservatives (think 'masks don't help' but alllll over again).
