I enjoy coding with Django. It's the framework that helped me make a smooth move from PHP/Symfony to Python-powered web apps. Not that I dislike PHP... just wanted to focus more on Python.

Many thanks to everyone involved in the project!

There is at least one way that migrating a + b is different than migrate a + migrate b, in ways that you can then only incrementally migrate your project rather than building from scratch.

It’s mainly in post migrate actions, and specifically for me adding a group for permissions.

> you attacked me

You were not attacked, your response was simply taken apart and questioned. If having someone be skeptical of you is an attack, that would make talking about subjects where everyone does not already agree very hard.

> What qualifies me?

> a good understanding of cryptography

> not PhD level

> I don't see why my job is relevant.

> It really is a matter of [...] time

Well, I think it is reasonable to ask why you feel like you know what changes to make to make something more secure. A reader now has to assume that you:

- Have not studied the subject in an academic way

- Do not have work experience to make up for that lack of study

- Do not have time to devote to the subject (for example, for self-study)

This would lead a naive reader to the conclusion that you are not academically suited, not professionally suited and not suited through self-study to comment on this subject in a capacity that means anyone should take your suggestions to heart (perhaps incorporating them into the software under discussion). The same would go for people that you would submit changes to (had you had any time for this). That leads me to believe the only point of your commentary is the commentary itself.

I guess it is fair to say I don't understand this. Perhaps GP was getting at that, perhaps not :)

Edit: To be clear, I wish to understand if there is an understanding to be had beyond "I just felt like it".

We're close to having the world's No. 1 and No. 3 economies, by GDP based on PPP, ban crypto. This lets us run a natural experiment.

In ten or twenty years years, will the massive diversion of power and talent to cryptocurrencies leave the U.S., EU and others better off? Or will crypto be remembered as America's backyard steel furnaces [1]? Until we're there it will be difficult to either confirm this is the right course or build the political will to ban crypto.

This sort of comment is exactly why articles like this will never result in constructive discussion on HN (or elsewhere). It doesn't address any of the comments in the article and doesn't even give any concrete examples of its point (in this case the "utility to society"). Don't take this personally, crypto always results in comments like this. It just turns into a vacuous slinging match. I tend to flag the articles about cryptocurrency/blockchain unless they contain some actually new technical innovation.
Why I'm an Entrepreneur Who Is Afraid to Fail, and You Should Be Too
States really need to get out of pursuing their own foreign policy. Regardless of what you think about the foreign policy issue in question, the only level of government that should act on it is the federal government.

Ironically, on almost every other issue, it should be decided at the state level, and it's the federal government that is unconstitutionally meddling,
"Proprietary software and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race."
Depends what that entails... Refusing to do business with Chinese-American companies or hire people of Chinese descent likely wouldn't be allowed.

Look at the BDS website. They basically equate all Israeli companies with the government. In addition, Israel guarantees the right of return (ie. citizenship) to all Jews. So while BDS claims they're not anti-Semetic, they apply their definitions broadly enough that it's not hard to see what the end result is...

It's just bizarre. What's Texas' compelling interest in punishing the boycott of foreign state?

In practice, what they do is feed the hyperinflation, by raising prices too frequently, because there's hyperinflation, which causes... more hyperinflation. The whole reason anybody needs a wheelbarrow full of cash to buy a loaf of bread is because the price is spiraling out of control. And, it spirals out of control because all the sellers of goods get caught up in the fever of rising prices.

The only thing that ends hyperinflation is a return to rationality, which is generally brought about by some sort of market crash. In 1994, Brazil used a different tactic, though: they scrapped their old, inflating currency, and created a new one, which they simply told the people was stable and not hyperinflating[0]. What it really was was a profound demonstration of the fact that microeconomics is really a strange branch of applied psychology.

As others have pointed out, the Zoom part isn't the big problem here. The delivery is.

Just for starters, within under a minute he's made the whole thing about him. Comments like, "Last time I cried," and, "I hope I'll be stronger this time," are grossly inappropriate. Nobody gives a shit how he feels, nor should they. This isn't hard for him, it's hard for the people he's firing. He shows a complete lack of respect for his now former employees by making it all about him. He should have made it about them. He should have showed them some compassion and respect.

Then there's the framing, the room, and his body language. He's miles away, barely looking at the camera, and constantly referring to notes printed out on paper. Not to mention he looks casual to the point of shabbiness, both in his dress and his demeanour, and there's distracting clutter around him. This is not hard to get right: sit directly in front of your laptop, and close enough to show head and shoulders only; look directly into the camera; have your notes on the screen and aligned with the camera so you don't have to keep looking away to refer to them; above all, STOP TALKING ABOUT YOURSELF.

I could go on but the short version is that the way he handled the situation - a situation which for many of those losing their jobs would probably put them in dire financial straits - was extremely unprofessional and disrespectful.

Seems to be the conventional wisdom on this thread that any counterintuitive medical conclusion should be ignored and ascribed to psychosomatic factors, the placebo effect, or we're just testing for it more.
Given you italicised both common and edge cases I presume you're expecting the following;

You're use of edge cases is non intuitive; If you mean the points in your FAQ are common for the rare setups they effect then perhaps it works. If the effected set ups themselves are common then the issues are not edge cases.

Edge cases by definition are extreme and thus not normal and thus not common.
> The Israeli boycott isn't simply saying you don't agree with their government, it's actively boycotting companies run by Israeli Jews and not hiring Israeli Jews.

That's simply not true. The Texas law does not say anything about boycotts against Jews. And BDS is modeled after the successful Apartheid boycotts, which were boycotts of South Africa, not boycotts of companies run by White South Africans.
>This is presented as an ownership record for the media, often with no legal basis

Ah yes, the mystical "legal basis" meaning that a nation state can use violence and kidnapping to enforce ownership in whatever way it sees fit instead of having palpable, trustless, mathematical proof of ownership.
Whatever it entails, there is no explicit law saying "If you want to partner with an entity of the State of Texas, you or your company are not allowed to protest against China or Chinese companies".

I guess Xi Jinping should buy off Republican lawmakers to get such a law instituted.
It's not just to make the product look scarce and make people think it will sell out. It's also to inspire confidence and signal to the prospect: We're watching people shop here. We're in a sense: 'Live!'
If it's intentionally shielded from prying eyes, and possibly nefarious, it's the dark web. More often than not this would be on Tor, I2P, or similar, but that's not required. If it simply can't be easily indexed by search engines, it's the deep web. Overlap between the two is possible.

Your mailbox would be deep web, if it's exposed to the Internet. If your mailbox uses an auto-responder to respond to coded messages with encrypted binaries of an illegal nature, it would be dark web.

What's the utility for society exactly?

As a currency? I have that already. And its stable, accepted almost everywhere, doesn't waste tons of energy and cannot be lost by forgetting a password.

As ownership verification for items? I have that as well: Contracts, Bills and Agreements. They can even be digitally signed, which has all the advantages of an NFT (integrity, authentication, non-repuditation) with none of the disadvantages.

So what tangible advantages does "crypto" have in these areas for society?

HN has always had a mix of people. There’s a distinct portion of people on here who trend toward center right and libertarian ideals. There’s a smaller but still solid segment who are more leftists who also generally oppose big authority in certain ways (some Govt stuff, big tech), but otherwise don’t have much overlap with the former group. I’m of the latter group, but it’s plain HN and even Slashdot in the old days, always had these sort of divides.

You’ll never find a place that won’t have these sort of divides unless you specifically go to a site for only your political views.

Hetzner is German, which has actually strong privacy laws. In terms of coordination it is easier, but in terms of actually getting to the cooperation it is much more difficult than any alternatives you are likely to be using.
Maybe to add, from a personal perspective, try not to loose yourself in this. I felt the same when my mother was diagnosed with cancer... I was the expert, I needed to save her. But my mother needed to have faith in the system and no second guessing. She trusted her oncologist. I backed off, they got her to the point of being cancer free for 3 years now against all odds.

Admittedly, your situation is different. Still, your partner may need you more as a supporting, fun, optimistic person rather than the miserable piece of human you can become from a bottomless rabbit hole like genomics, where the answer to your partner's problem may forever seem like "almost within your grasp".
Read the BDS website. In the FAQ section they say "nearly all" Israeli companies are complicit with crimes against Palestinians. They essentially cast such a wide net that the actual result is discrimination against all Israeli Jewish-run companies.
With LTO the compiler should be free to fudge the calling convention for most calls even between translation units.

Here is GCC doing that optimization for a static noinline function: https://godbolt.org/z/cn6Wz9Kvn

Similarly, compilers can also clone functions if it makes sense to propagate constants from call sites into the function. Example: https://godbolt.org/z/59z6xT75n

I'm sure there is more room for improvement. A perfect compiler would always optimized programs as a whole and only regard function boundaries as hints at best. In practice, you have to keep complexity in check somehow.

> If you’re not a U.K. citizen using gov.uk services, then I have no idea how you can comment on what GDS have and have not built.

I am following them and listening them on IT conferences. I didn't know they have such jurisdiction. But obviously, its still not the same thing, far away from it. I am talking about services that take multi years to make and involve 100ths engineers from big companies. Each of them. GDS didn't create a government bank or auction platform or eInvocing system. They can't. Its a "bit more involved" then organizing passports, identification cards, documents etc.

For the most part the folks who continue to call themselves Texans don’t seem to actually care about things such as logic or freedom, only about reinforcing whatever it is they have been told to reinforce on that day. I feel bad I wasted so much of my life in such a place, but happy that I didn’t contribute my money to them because of their own inane policies.
There's also the part where you dig around to see what people use and recommand, and most of the answers are "use what you already know", which doesn't help when you don't know anything in detail. I feel like at this point the best strategy would be to list all the viables alternatives, pick one, and forbid yourself from using anything else for the next X months, but when thinking about that I have a huge fear of missing out.
Yep, they made it gradually less discoverable, leaving an option in system preferences first, then removing it and allowing to enable it from cmdline, then removing it altogether. I believe it went away completely with Big Sur.

As a working physicist I would agree with you for the most part. Science fiction doesn't help because it doesn't contain ideas, which work beyond a surface plausibility level. However you can still get inspired by them in indirect ways. I find Paul Feyerabend's work interesting in that regard. In "Against Method" he argues that most breakthrough scientific discoveries can't be cleanly attributed to the scientific method.
Why the Great Resignation?
sure. i know hedgefunds and banks that critically relly on a lot of permissive-licensed software and develop heavily on that code base. conversely, they wouldn't touch copyleft software with a 10 ft pole

I was thinking the opposite point: sometimes the experienced doctor or researcher made a mistake, and the guy who posted something on Reddit is correct. Usually not, but sometimes.

Generally speaking, you should trust someone whose professional or experienced more than some random stranger. Especially if it's not one person but a large group of experienced professionals (most of the controversial "anti-science" issues today).

But it's actually important to "do your own research", and not just listen to authority. Provided you actually know how, i.e. you can find accurate sources and distinguish fact from fiction. Because even the most qualified, unbiased, genius authority are occasionally wrong. The big issue today is that a lot of people don't know how to research and distinguish lies, but (although it's probably impossible for most) finding a way to teach someone how to find the truth, will always be more effective having some authority tell them the truth.

Key example: doctors often miss symptoms and diagnoses that a patient can discover on their own. It's not that the doctor is stupid or unqualified, in fact they have way more medical knowledge than you. But the doctor only has a series of questions and maybe a few tests to make a diagnosis, whereas you have the full experience of symptoms and an internal understanding of your "normal". IMO people actually should "play Internet doctor" and research their symptoms, not to reach any 100% conclusions, but to suggest diagnoses and tests to their real doctor.
Just give up, crypto-kiddies. Your decentralized crypto fantasies will not materialize without exponential fraud. Do scientific level financial and legal-financial research to grasp the impossibility of your methods. Use your STEM education to review the methods this decentralized effort plans to employ and compare that against economic graph theory - they do not gel.
My hypothesis is that this might be indirectly related to the drug. Because sex increases blood circulation to the whole body, including the brain, this circulation helps the brain cells. Taking Viagra regularly for sexual pleasure has this positive side-effect of regular blood flow to the brain, thus reducing the chances of damage to the cells.
FAQs can be useful if they are used as a questionnaire to test our own understanding of the content. But FAQs being the only source of information is pretty terrible and very lazy. Lately, on many Indian government websites, I’ve seen that they straight up just have a list of FAQs and nothing else which infuriates me a lot.

A lot of the people who get “cancelled” can reverse their behavior. You’re changing the definition of the new meaning of cancel culture by saying he can just stop doing what he’s doing. The point should be no one should be cancelled just for doing things that others might not like while not being violent or advocating for it.
I'm just curious, would you have any problem with a similar law that said people were free to protest or speak out about any political party they wanted to but that they could not get a government contract unless they agree to support the Democratic party?
