I wish I could consolidate a lot of the apps I use for Markdown:

Blog: I used Vim for a long time, now I use the online editor https://stackedit.io. I found that composing blog posts involves cutting and pasting big blocks of text a lot more than coding, which is better done with a mouse. Stackedit has a side-by-side view and WYSIWYG.

Github wiki: Good for sketching ideas for blog posts, and documentation. Editable by others. (wish list: I kinda want the Roam Research bidirectional link thing, I often have that problem)

Github issues: similar to a TODO list for many people.

Zulip: Good for chatting with others, and for brainstorming ideas. So it overlaps with the Github wiki for that. Not good for a TODO list.

So there are all these apps that use Markdown but they are a bit disconnected.

Is that what Notion is supposed to be? A bunch of apps that interoperate and are unified? I haven't tried it since I mainly stick to open source stuff (with the exception of Github, though it is built on git)

As a long time /lit/-izen I wanted bring up 4chan as an counter-example of a toxic platform that hasn't been optimized for attention. But the longer I thought about it, the more I grew sure that it isn't as toxic as it seems to be. Sure people will respond to your post calling you a bundle of sticks or the n-word. But in the end I had more heart-to-hearts with people that have widly different opinions than on any other platform. Some anon on /wg/ even convinced me to see a therapist about my suicidal-ideation. Hearing that from a voice in the void where there was no karma/likes/hearts/reblogs/etc. attached seemed more genuine, honest and caring than any other "help" I experienced online.
RHEL 8 doesn't ship with GTK 4. How do I ship an application that uses functionality that only exists in GTK 4 if available, but falls back to GTK 3 if it isn't? If libraries had been written with this in mind (like OpenGL was), then yes, there'd be a path to doing so. Libraries on Linux could work in the way you suggest. But, for the most part, they don't.

You might also be interested in RSA blind signatures. They hardly ever come up so I was surprised to learn what seemed like an important property years after I thought I knew what RSA did.

Used it at a former job along with YouTrack and UpSource. It was super nice having everything natively integrating with each other.

Of course then you deal with the relatively high JB prices for everything (not including IDEs even) and vendor lock.
Ditto on the toolkit recommendation. There are some good sets out there but you could also go the DIY route and assemble one if the recipient has a niche they typically work on. Walmart's HyperTough brand tools are cheap and works well for the price, but the selection of electrical tools and supplies at Harbor Freight are immense if the giftee does a lot of soldering/wiring/etc.

The old procedure was

Control Column - Hold Firmly

Autopilot - Disengage. Do NOT re-engage.
Control pitch attitude manually with column and electric trim.

If runaway continues, stab trim cutout (both) to cutout.

http://www.b737.org.uk/images/runawaystab2000.jpg

The new procedure is not that much different.

With PK-LQP - previous flight it took 6 minutes for them to get to this procedure - and it was suggestion of a dead-heading pilot. This resolved things. Despite going through this exact issue on previous flight, the next flight takes off, same issue develops because of underlying maintenance issue, they were dealing with this for 8 minutes, 28 activations of incorrect trim but with a fatal outcome.

Yes, MCAS was a bad design, yes it increased risk. I'm not sure it was a "nothing could be done" type situation. Better maintenance? Better communication between flights? Stab trim cutout earlier if you don't like how the automatic trim is working?

Airbus has historically pushed more automation / flight protection. My own suspicion is Boeing will go that way as well, ie, human in loop model they had (where human fixes the computer going crazy) just doesn't work well especially for folks flying these big jets without much earlier GA / manual flying time.

For example, in the US, a pilot would have done lots of manual flying on small planes first, and so might be a bit less automation dependent and better able to take over when computers go crazy. Also more hours before you fly the big jets (think 1,500 hours flight time). Usually a 4 year degree.

Overseas, you can come off the street and be flying a jet with 200 - 240 hours of time including sim time? That is a TON less flying time, probably very very little manual stick and rudder flying. A fair number of saves in the US have come from folks with great stick and rudder flying experience, even things like glider experience you just don't have overseas.

There usually is something called differences training for variants like this. Wouldn't cover MCAS, and is usually brief, but not normally zero. I'm surprised they did zero differences training if that was the case - that is very unusual. You've got to do normally at least an hour or two. A new variant is not unheard off, 737 probably has something like 12 variants under one type certificate. I would check your source there that no differences training came up.
I dunno, Microsoft seem to think they can get away with training autocomplete on copyrighted source code that they don't have permission to use.
> I don't know, though I'd suspect that plans for increased air exchange are being considered.

In general, newer buildings with sealed windows have pretty good air exchange (with heat recovery) and filtration.

> For much of the state, through much of the year, open windows are a reasonably minor consideration.

Yah, tell that to me languishing masked a 95 degree classroom between building heat gain and a temperature in the 90s, and now ending up with a 60 degree room. It's workable, but it sucks, and we're wasting a lot of energy just to maintain a few degree delta T from outside with open windows. We've had a few weeks where the open windows have been great, but a lot more crummy weeks.

I'm a little jealous of those upstairs in the high school building that don't need to open windows.... and have nice temperatures in their classrooms... and have also had 0 secondary COVID cases. It's also really hard to conduct class when there's music, PE, etc, activities outside.

> The chief challenge is that of retrofits vs. new construction.

I thought we were talking in the context of a new school building being built without windows that open.

That said, windows are nice. If you have a class full of kids that are restless, sometimes opening windows and getting some outside noise or a breeze through the room changes the entire mood. It would be sad to lose that.

I don't know him personally so I could certainly be mistaken, but from listening to him speak/write and based on his charitable giving I don't get the impression at all that Jack is motivated by riches. I think he is genuinely interested in Bitcoin as a tool for advancing humanity. I also don't get the impression he is interested in 'crypto'. I guess it remains to be seen though.
Uncharitable explanation: he's being forced out over his pro-free-speech views. He's been pretty vocal about disagreeing with Twitter's recent actions.
They're ops guys. Andrew and his partner Chris work off of the Buffet/Munger model used at Berkshire Hathaway. They buy good businesses they think are undervalued and then bring in their ops/logistics experience to (if necessary) install a new team, get any loose ends cleaned up, and then send them on their way (retaining ownership via Tiny).

They find ATMs, upgrade their software and case, and then let them run. Over time, if you're good at it (they are), you build a portfolio that is consistently cash flowing vs. a bunch of lottery tickets like the traditional VC model.
I'm confused. I thought I did. Is the link above not correct?

Nicolas Pitre wrote:
"Well, not really."

Is that the "response to the response" you're referring to? If so, that's what I meant as well. I thought Nicolas' response was on point with the discussion about accessibility.
Which is definitely just that, an assumption. Some people write things just because they want to or can, and don't care whether anyone else finds it useful for their own purposes. It might just be something for a portfolio, to inspire others, etc, or again, just because. Lots of things are created "just because".

The decision is left to the end user, use it, or don't.
In that case, why would it make any sense to promote the person who was ostensibly most responsible for curing those ills?
Yes, OCB is still around 50 % faster than the next best[1] AEAD (which is AES-GCM) and almost 3x faster than Chapoly on current x86 and comes pretty close to 10 GB/s/core on a desktop CPU. That being said, all of these are really, really fast in absolute terms, way beyond line-rate even for 10 GbE, which is a measly 1.2 GB/s. In practical terms, all of these modern algorithms are so fast (with hardware support for AES) that very few applications will see a significant burden from symmetric crypto, so you can choose pretty much whatever you feel comfortable with. EtM was usually quite a bit worse, as the hashes used for hMac were usually much slower in comparison. Though Blake3 would seem to eliminate that concern.

FYI, ublock origin blocks track.customer.io which is an alias for open.getparade.com and so the account verification step fails until ublock is disabled. I'd recommend moving to internal tracking rather than using customer.io, just my 2 cents of feedback.
I really haven't seen what you seem to be alluding to.

That's kinda why I talk about having to ask for exact examples... I still have no clue what exactly you think is being censored.
>Who is paying for bulletproof hosting of controversial materials when anyone producing or consuming it is in prison?

Who said anything about bullet proof hosting? You just need to host in a country who isn't going to do anything about it.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say there are some people producing and consuming it not in prison. You can try to arrest everyone involved but you will never get everybody.

That was my point. If the solution is to just arrest people doing it then how do you stop the spread by people who didn't get caught?

>What's your solution? Hacking the C&C servers in violation of the laws of whatever country they're in? That already is the "wild west" solution.

Perhaps. If the country the server is hosted in isn't dealing with it, then maybe that is the best solution. I don't know, but this does feel like a thing for the government to be involved in. If the government hacks a server to bring it down is it really different than a more official way?

>The alternative would be something like voluntary blocking by endpoints and firewalls, which nobody would have any reason not to use as long as the block list contains only things like this which nobody actually wants, and therefore doesn't require any government mandates.

Who is doing this voluntary blocking? The average person couldn't handle it so it would have to be ISPs or the government. Many people don't have choices in their ISP so they could be stuck with an ISP not doing blocking.
Censoring speech is completely counter to everything this country was built on. Every corporation doing this, YC included, is plainly undermining our freedom of speech. Using the public square exception, while also censoring and editorializing, creates a moral hazard, wherein the offending corporations are are actually publishers that ate not responsible for the content they publish, yet they are benefitting from it.

There are no "community standards". There are corporate rules and censorship. We are not a community if we can't have free speech. We are subject to a corporation that is publishing and benefitting our content, subject to their terms and political beliefs.

What is an individual node if not just another server? And on top of that, web3 wants to throw words like "distributed" and "blockchain" at people like they have any more idea what those are than a box that runs code.

Sorry, I don't buy it.
You're getting into "launch your house without hiring an architect" territory there. UI isn't so much tricky as it is an entirely separate discipline, devoted entirely to context, with a ton of thinking already done and ready to be applied at the individual level.

This article is about cobalt and the poor conditions for cobalt miners in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Cobalt is often used in cathodes for lithium ion batteries.

Apart from trying to fix the Congo conditions or avoid Congo-sourced cobalt, battery users and their suppliers have reacted by:

- Developing more cobalt mining projects and expanding existing ones in Canada, Australia, and the United States

- Switching to cobalt-free cathode chemistries like lithium iron phosphate: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_iron_phosphate_battery

The article does not mention these outside-Congo developments, presumably because it's doing a deep dive on the Congo issues. But for readers who care about battery technology in general, note that these issues are more of a speed bump than a wall when it comes to scaling up lithium ion battery production.

There was a PoS mechanism that makes people who cheat lose all their coins? I wonder if it is relevant here

That doesn't prove or disprove anything. What we experience as time would be part of the simulation, were such a hypothesis true. As such, the way in which we experience it is fully independent from whatever costs it might have to compute.

Don't allow any HTTP requests to be passed to your actual backend app, handle them only on the proxy.

For example:

You set up NGINX on ports 80 and 443 and open these ports (TCP for 80 and TCP/UDP for 443) to the internet, and close all other ports. Your backend runs on port 3000, and you configure NGINX to proxy pass coolstore.com/api to said port 3000.

All client-traffic HTTPS is handled on the NGINX proxy (it can also serve your static files very well). Any HTTP requests are sent response status 301 with HTTPS version of request URL.

I wouldn’t say it’s common here in Sweden, at all. I’ve driven all over Europe and the US, and nowhere is as uncommunicative as Sweden on the roads. People barely use their blinkers even when turning or changing lanes on the motorway, let alone ‘thanking’ each other - which in the 25 years I’ve lived here, I’ve seen maybe two or three times.

They absolutely did. Twitter et al. just change the shape of who you socialize with, humans weren't in solitary confinement before the Internet. The platform was more local more community based for example there were often awful people at church.

GPT3 and its cousins do things that no previous language model could do; it is qualitatively different from Eliza in its capabilities. As for your argument about random projections in the evaluation of GLoVE, comparisons with random projections are now routine. See for example https://aclanthology.org/N19-1419/
