How much can this CMS system have cost you? 11 GBs of storage doesn't cost jack, so that can't be it.

The only real solution to this is to set up the CMS system again, then set up the replacement one and then do a proper export while the old one is running until you're up and running with the new one.

It also doesn't take 6-12 months to set up a CMS system. Hire some bored college student to set it up on digital ocean for $20/h or something.

Then finally you need to fire the moron who decided this was a good idea.
A group will never admit they were wrong. A group will never admit, “We made a mistake,” because a group that tries to change its mind falls apart. I’m hard pressed to find examples in history of large groups that said, “We thought A, but the answer’s actually B.”

Now that is a useful insight.

It's a big problem for voluntary associations. Companies can sometimes change their culture, but it usually requires replacing the CEO.

This has come up a few times in military history. "L'audace, toujours l'audace" was a WWI French slogan. It took a huge number of casualties before high command got it that charging into machine guns does not work. Courage does not help. In WWII, a big change was discovering that battleships are not useful once the enemy has torpedo bombers. The resistance of the battleship admirals was overcome by Congress, not the Navy. Congress ordered that the captains of aircraft carriers must be qualified to fly aircraft. Sidelining the "Gun Club" took major political effort.

Now, the US military is struggling with the "Fighter Mafia", which tends to run the USAF despite the ascendancy of drones and the usefulness of the A-10.

Love these "tiny" 128x128 textures when meanwhile, anyone doing development for the contemporaneous Nintendo 64 gets something like 44x44@16bpp color, or 64x64@8bpp grayscale. The maximum texture size is 4 KB with some major caveats (e.g. it drops to 2 KB if you use indexed color).

The N64 is, in a lot of ways, on paper, a more powerful system than the PS1. Better CPU, depth buffer / Z test, perspective-correct texturing, antialiasing, subpixel precision, etc. And yet the PS1 completely dominated the N64 in the marketplace and in terms of longetivity--a big part of that how cheap it is to manufacture CDs. And so people lovingly remember PS1-style graphics, but there isn't as much of a resurgence of N64-style graphics.

Another cute thing to note about PS1 is how it renders dark clouds on-screen. You might be familiar with the "add" blend mode for things like lens flares. Well, the PS1 also had a subtract blend mode, which has some unusual effects... basically, anything partially obscured by a dark cloud gets darker but also more colorful.

It depends.

There's nothing in the ADA (or any similar legislation) that says that all services ever created need to be accessible. Whether such legislation applies to you depends on a lot of factors, whether your software is used in workplaces, government and education being the most important (but not the only) ones.

Sometimes it's the organization that's only allowed to pick accessible software, not the developer that needs to make the software accessible. Sometimes it's okay to use inaccessible software as long as an accessible alternative exists and can be used by those who need it.

If someone cared enough to break accessibility this way, they could implement a switch that conditionally disables accessibility where legally permitted. I believe Kindle already lets publishers do this, come to think of it.
And yours is a naive take. Money wins elections in America, and regular people who would benefit from such regulations do not have enough compared to the industries fighting against it.

Assessing the U.S. Climate in November 2021; 3rd-Warmest Autumn on Record
Well, I beg to disagree. There are millions of Turks living in Northern Cyprus. Prior to Turkey's military intervention, the Turkish people were being massacered. If Turkey ever ceases to support Northern Cyprus, there needs to be some sort of military presence to keep peace.

Northern Cyprus is not just a lifeless island, it's a place that has been the home for many Turks for hundreds of years. If having lived in the same country for hundreds of years after conquering it doesn't give you a legitimate claim to reside there, I don't know what will.

I think the value of human life is much more important than getting into a union. The EU shouldn't have pushed this requirement.

There's one fingerprint per TLS session. It's clearer with a worked example. Let's say you send a client hello like this:

TLS: 1
Ciphers: A, B, C
Extensions:
ExtensionX: ...
ExtensionY: ...
ExtensionZ: ...

That gets converted into a string like "1-A,B,C-X,Y,Z", and then hashed with MD5 to get a value like "41b2054b6a0a7549fa963b232226f6ae". For every single server you talk to, those values will be the same, we'll get the same fingerprint, and so this distinctively identifies TLS connections made by this client.

Another client might instead send:

TLS: 1
Ciphers: C, B, A
Extensions:
ExtensionX: ...
ExtensionY: ...
ExtensionZ: ...

That becomes a string like "1-C,B,A-X,Y,Z", which gets hashed to a fingerprint like "ae76e4566b036882147de2f7feddad4a". That gives us a totally different unique id, with the same ciphers but in a different order.

(This is pseudocode of course - the actual fingerprints have a few more params and use the number ids for each cipher and extension instead of strings, but it's equivalent)

Here, with 3 ciphers in two different orders, we've seen two different fingerprints already. With those three ciphers alone, there's actually 6 (3 factorial) possible permutations - i.e. a client could order those ciphers any one of 6 different ways, and each ordering has a different fingerprint.

If you have 4 ciphers, there's 24 possible orderings, 6 gives 720, 10 gives 3.6 million, and this goes up very rapidly, so that for a more realistic set of 20 ciphers there's 2 * 10^18 possible orderings, each one of which gives a unique fingerprint, even before we start talking about extension order.

Does that make more sense? The full algorithm is here: https://github.com/salesforce/ja3#how-it-works
>My point is that the respondents may have been a self-selecting group due to a third factor

The article addresses this:

"It is possible that those individuals classified as Dependent experienced an exaggerated set of negative consequences related to their Internet use compelling them to respond to advertisements for this study."

You seem to be losing focus on what the article is about, namely non-intoxicant addiction. "addiction can be defined as an impulse-control disorder which does not involve an intoxicant." If you were talking about a sexual addiction rather than a sexual preference, it would be an apt analogy.

To your point, yes, the context of impairment is being adaptive to the society in which one lives. The hermit living off the grid in Montana would probably be classified as maladaptive to modern society even if they think that society exhibits negative traits. That is a distinctly different claim as to whether that modern society exhibits certain favorable characteristics. This study was about the former point and made no claims to the latter.

The respondents characterized the Internet addiction as akin to cigarette cravings. I think it's possible (or even likely) there are confounding factors that drive this, but I think this study was asking a much simpler question of "Does Internet use display negative behavioral manifestations that align with other non-substance addictions, like gambling." To that point, either of those (Internet use or gambling) could be driven by societal factors.
For now, it could be implemented as a purely functional language, without any facility for side effects. Other traditional, imperative languages could then use libraries written in it.

Did you misread 3/4 of what i said and add a bunch of outright wrong statements? I never claimed the Armata is superior, and it doesn't matter. Swap Armata for the T-90, T-80 or heck T-72, the same logic applies. Lower quality arms of certain types, such as tanks, at sufficient numbers can easily overwhelm even much better equipment.

Easy maintenance of not great hardware is better than complex maintenance of magnificent hardware. Just ask the Germans, Americans and Russians during WW2. The Sherman tank was a piece of shit on paper, but was easy to maintain, and could be produced in huge numbers. The Tiger sounds scary on paper, but it didn't matter since there weren't enough of them, and the few that existed broke down easily.

S-400 is probably better. The Patriot system is old, and doesn't even have 360 field of fire. Turkey went as far as getting kicked out of the F-35 programme over the S-400, so it's not only the Russians' word. Furthermore, it's an improvement over the earlier S-300, which is widely deployed and understood, and is generally a good and well liked system. (And note: it wasn't an S-300 that was used to shoot down the civilian airliner in Ukraine, it was a Buk, which is a mobile AA system, unlike the S series, which is (mostly) static for defense of specific areas).

BTR isn't supposed to protect from more than small arms fire, being a light armoured vehicle and all. BMPs aren't APCs, but IFV. Do you have a source on your ridiculous claim that infantry prefer to march on foot? BMPs were used in Yemen and I've heard of no such thing.

Spain is doing decently, and so is Russia. ( In terms of armament, in terms of civil liberties and all that stuff Russia is far behind).

Microsoft did not care about security until ca. 2001. Then some viruses came which prompted MS to address some issues. The only security step taken later by MS was to integrate Defender in windows. But this came late, at the time when the so called AV products were basically rootkits (which Defender is also).
With the rise of javascript and the browser as a (virtual) machine, came a lot of remote exploits. Of course MS does not care, it is your data that you have to protect.

> Really it sucks for the end users because the security solutions are a shit show and vastly destroy the usability of devices for technical and power users and the architectural flaws of windows are just horrible to start with.

The security solutions are a shitshow because there are no real security companies. They mostly offer security as a certification - install our software and you will reach certification X.

> As much as I am no fan of Microsoft, at least they're trying though.

I don't think so. Their aim (like every company) is to make a lot of money from all their departments. Thei sell everything, even "security".

I think 8-bit/16-bit retro games were kind of at the apex of 2D sprite game design, and many of them were quite lovely, hence the nostalgia.

The PS1 3D games look worse when you look back at them, because they were not really the next logical increment of 2D gaming, but the first step into 3D. So more like the Pong, Asteroids, etc of the 3D era. They were exciting at the time as a glimpse of where things were going, but objectively they looked pretty bad.

I think it's just a difference in attitude.

Some people (like myself) prefer to be treated with more respect than a snarky comment. You can attribute that to being sensitive if you'd like.

I think other commenters think more along the lines of, "It's the internet, I'm (sort of) anonymous, if you don't like what I say, T.S."

Personally, I think that aside from being rude, the comment in question ignores the fact that the original commenter stated they saw other people receive snarky responses, and after receiving those responses themselves decided they'd rather not be criticized. I think they'd know better whether their life or career require exposure on HN.

If someone ever wanted to understand what a space force might provide, consider what happens when someone wants to use one of the lagrange points for their own purpose, and it's currently occupied by someone they don't like.

There's more to what any military force brings, obviously, both positive and negative. It's just sometimes when discussing the purpose of a military with others, the concept seems a little too fuzzy because most resources seem broadly available enough that they could easily be shared from a laypersons perspective. Lagrange points are very finite.

edit: apparently the area contained within a lagrange point is larger than I expected. Negates my point.

This doesn't make sense either - if I were shrinking and you were shrinking, then the distance between us would appear to be growing larger, but it's not. Gravitationally bound systems don't expand, only the galaxies themselves seem to be moving away from one another. Combined with no mechanism to explain the shrinking, nor any reason why the various other laws of physics don't seem to be affected and it doesn't seem any easier to understand at all.

In modern iOS versions, Voice Over has an AI-powered screen recognition module that does not rely on the accessibility information that the developer provides.

As far as I know, it's not possible to prevent the use of this module, not without making the text on the screen unreadable to any OCR engine.

This module isn't perfect, in fact, it's far from perfect, but for something as simple as extracting a bunch of text that already appears on the screen, it would probably work.

What the FT article claims is that Apple has shifted towards a much more lenient interpretation of App Store rules when it comes to user tracking. The original title is "Apple reaches quiet truce over iPhone privacy changes".

What Apple means by tracking is linking data from individual app users to third party data [1].

So in my view, it would indeed be a shift in Apple's position if they now accept that apps can link an individual's data to third party data as long as they somehow aggregate the result (e.g by creating cohorts) before actually targeting ads. But it's unclear to me whether they do in fact accept that.

I think merely mentioning aggregation is not enough to determine whether or not Apple has changed its position on this.

I don't know... The article itself mentions something related:

> "These forums can contribute to the lowering of inhibitions. [...] When these people interact in a community of others like them, a distortion of perceptions may result".

So maybe having people share those pictures in an uncontrolled environment can be even worse than having the images shared and re-shared. And it definitely matches the experiences we have with other echo chambers on the internet.
It's sort of wild to think that Amazon purchased Alexa.com in 1999 for ~$250M in stock, and that stock would be worth more than $7B today, if my math is correct.

I dont think so. It this would be true, the same Americans would be for interventions that go against corporate interests.
> A lot of assumptions about what was "safe" got upended with data when everything shut down. A lot of what we do is a lot more "unsafe" for us than we credit.

Can you provide some context here? While I don't necessarily dispute what you are saying, it is a very broad and general statement.

One should not spray plants or a lawn with soapy water (concentration being a factor, of course). For this approach to work without stripping off the wax coating most plants and grass have, you want to deliver the water to the roots rather than spray from the top. If you did that, the amount of soap in a typical shower, hand washing or dish washing cycle isn't going to be an issue. I can also imagine a simple filtration system that might treat the recycled water before irrigation.

According to the EPA [0], in the US, about 9 billion gallons of water per day are used for landscape irrigation. That is an astounding amount of water. I found numbers in the range of 100 gallons per day for watering lawns during the summer. Even if we could replace half of that water with recycled water, the gains would be massive. Which brings me to the reality that one could filter soapy water and then, if necessary, dilute it with some clean water in order to maintain a plant-healthy soap concentration.

The point is that this might be a worthy idea to consider. The details would have to be worked out. I don't think it is impossible.

If only I could be sure that all illegal images were also abusive images. Two seventeen year olds having consensual sex is not abusive and is legal in Washington state. Two seventeen year olds sharing sexually explicit images of themselves with each other ("sexting") is not abusive either but is not legal anywhere in the United States. Over-zealous officials sometimes threaten teens with crimes for making images of themselves. As long as the law criminalizes consensual images produced by randy teens in addition to abuse of children, this ambiguity will persist.
