They mention some ssh features that tinyssh does not have but it would be helpful to have a complete list. What I really would like to know is whether you can just drop it into an environment that uses a modern ssh configuration without the need for legacy versions.
Even if you're not forced to, it's not the worst idea

I'm moving across the country and plan to take a seat on a private charter because of Omnicron: much less time spent in "security" face to back with people, more room between passengers once you're on.

I suspect plenty of people who would previously saw any sort of private flight as a completely untenable expense are slowly warming up to the idea for similar reasons
> speed - TinySSH can be also compiled using high-speed NaCl library instead of internal.

Sounds like you can use NaCI directly.
The Future of Rail in Great Britain [pdf]
On a code review, I'd say I'm impressed, but still demand it written in a way that doesn't require the mindbending this one asks for. We should write code that’s as naïve as possible.
I program high often. It's resulted in good code and bad code at proportions roughly equal to sober programming. The difference is generally in which code is good in each case.

Tricky memory stuff, trying to deal with complex order of operations (threads, race conditions, etc) tends to go way better sober.

House keeping like light refactors (im in rust these days so stuff like: oh that should be a result not an option, or using matches instead of ifs, genericize this struct), boiler plate stuff and cleaning up logs/error handling tends to go better when I'm high.

But there are exceptions to both trends and I've done good deep work high and done plenty of good housekeeping sober. And of course since it's coding, i've (re)done plenty of bad work in both states too.

Sad to know my experience is just nonsense. I guess I need to get in touch with the CFO and let him know the profit from the product I wrote is just a pipe dream.
> but the fundamentals are all the same.

Sure. Also, any job that requires writing English all day has some cross-cutting fundamentals.

I'm making a general point about empirical software engineering research: "does the question that's being asked get at the fundamentals that are shared between all programmers, or do we need to be more careful about specifying what we mean when we say 'programmer'?"

> It’s unclear what kind of point you’re trying to make and how it had any bearing on the cannabis angle.

I could probably do the "$local_shop web dev job" high all day. Not probably. I definitely could write straight-forward iPhone apps or Django web apps all day long while high as a kite. No problem.

I definitely couldn't do other programming jobs high all day -- either because I need to spend a ton of time in careful conversation with other people, or because the technical problems require sobriety, or more usually a combination of both.

Apparently the basic observation that some programming is easier than other programming is divisive here. That's fine for an HN comment thread. But I'd love to see a paper that goes something like "here are some buckets of programming jobs. Let's try to replicate a bunch of empirical SE studies with samples selected from each of these buckets and see what happens."
With commercial air travel being so unreliable, this makes sense.

I've travelled quite a bit over the past few months and had to deal with an elevated level of delays, cancellations, etc. For those that need to be at a certain place at a certain time, and can afford it, private air travel makes sense.

Private also has its benefits. I remember last year that commercial air travellers into Canada were being put in quarantine hotels whereas private air travellers were not subjected to such measures.
There were slaves for thousands of years too, and we ended that pretty quickly.

Ding ding... schools here are filled with kids wearing masks. One can argue it is not useful, but that is not the point at all. The point is, they wear them without complaint, every day. Hell, my kid has her mask on before we walk out the door. I tell her she doesn't need it, but it's just easier for her to put it on and forget about it than remember to put it on when we get where we're going. She's a picky kid with sensory issues, so...

I power lifted for many years and love it. I still lift regularly, but no longer PR because of age and some sport injuries. After working all day in an abstract environment dealing with code, there is something pure and simple about a deadlift.
you could replace “the last two years” by “the last fourty years” really. The process is just accerating a bit every year (as expected because of the compound interests).
(Context: I also lift weights regularly, and got way more into it a few months into the pandemic)

Wouldn't you have to lift at a pretty high level to be even a bit competitive? My mental picture is that you probably won't reach anywhere near competitive levels until you are at least a few years in. I personally am still fairly weak by powerlifting standards.

But this could just be in my head... I actually have no idea if there are options for beginners, despite somewhat following the sport.
I'm amazed that people can just fly over everyone and make incredible amounts of noise while those on the ground are trying to enjoy peace and quiet.

You have a very good point, and it's what I think also. Eventually in many, or I dare so most organizations, the power-hungry, self-serving people will somehow arm-wrestle their way to the top. It's just a matter of time, may take decades or even centuries if the organization lasts that long.

There's a political theory about this termed the "Iron law of oligarchy".

Even if everything else was exactly the same, they'd still make it considerably worse by removing trying out the fit from the equation. There's no way of running a try/return/send to next buyer cycle on that price level, it's all about best guess and eating the cost. Reminds me if how the IP family of protocols, unlike protocols from the old telephony tradition, does not promise anything about the connection before the packet is sent out. Only that this time there's actual stuff ending up in bins. At retail fast fashion, fitting booths have not yet entirely disappeared.
And I would have happily created a PR for their open source version that they generously give away for free, but the bug is in their web server configuration for their hosted product, so they need to put the fix in.

I didn't feel I was being unreasonable asking for free use of their product for a year (after which I would obviously have to pay), for a web app I am writing which currently has practically zero traffic. As bug bounties go, it wasn't a bad deal I thought.
It isn't hard, it just requires active thought.

Even better, get an uninitiated person and watch them try it.
Yeah, that's true - "not quite related to anything" is definitely wrong word choice here.

Perhaps a better way to say it is "it's so impossible to understand, I can't believe it's actually related to anything" :-)

> Prerequisite: A calendar. The one outside tool I use is an online calendar, and I put everything on this calendar, even things that aren't actually for a fixed time like "make a coffee table at the workshop" or "figure out how to recruit new PhD students" — I'll schedule them on a date when I want to think about it. That way all my future plans and schedule are together, and not a bunch of lists I have to keep track of.

On this topic, what calendar software do people use? I'm a very disorganized person, never used calendars to keep track of my life. Maybe I'll try it out. I'd like something independent from Google/Microsoft/$BIGTECH.
This is the most realistic answer here.
And the people who work at the farms are exploited pretty terribly as well.

Same with the meat packers, the fruit pickers. Same with the people working in all of the factories and shipping plants and driving the trucks. The invisible labor we are all surrounded by every day that touches literally everything I can see right now, aside from the tree outside my window.

And all of the money I spend inevitably trickles upwards to people who are going to use it to do things I consider evil like destroying our natural world for profit.

But! That is not a problem I am going to solve over-night. I can try and tailor my consumption to products that I vet and are hopefully more ethically sourced than alternatives. Even doing this is of questionable utility.

“No ethical consumption under capitalism” and all that.

> If you threaten China they will reverse these decisions and actually try to compete for quality of life

This would require political revolution. The system is set up and dependent on a complex net of patronage among the elites. Competing for quality of life would mean taking their chips. People don't like it when you take their chips.

This might have been possible to do peacefully before Xi. But he's shown the cost of the competition is high. If you come in second place, you don't get another shot in five or ten years. You lose the chance of a lifetime, and will likely see yourself and your family persecuted by the state.
Here in Ontario we had a small quake caused by a rock slide in Lake Ontario, almost no damage was seen. But my friend in Bowmanville said her grand mother lost tens of thousands of dollars in custom plates that she has displayed on ledges all around her house.

Why? Because we never get earthquakes here, so there were no lifted edges or holders! Then suddenly we get a small quake, and they all came crashing down.

> highly productive mathematicians like Paul Erdos

I think Paul Erdos' stimulant usage has been blown out of proportion. According to his biography, he took "10 to 20 milligrams of Benzedrine or Ritalin" ( https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/books/first/h/ho... ) which is, believe it or not, lower than a lot of people's commonly prescribed ADHD doses today. Erdos also published a lot of his best works before taking up non-caffeine stimulants, so it wasn't exactly the driving force behind his productivity.

Anyone using Erdos to justify an excessive or non-prescribed/non-medical stimulant habit has misunderstood the history.

> Steve Jobs swore that it changed him.

Steve Jobs was also famously terrible to everyone around him and died prematurely because he firmly believed he could cure pancreatic cancer with an all-fruit diet. Which of his properties are we to ascribe to the mind-altering drugs and which are we to overlook?

Again, using Steve Jobs to justify drug consumption (or anything, really) is missing the point that he was a unique person.
What kind of mask are you wearing?

I find surgical masks incredibly frustrating after a short while as condensation and sweat start to build up (keep in mind this is usually in rooms much warmer than your average operating room)

N95 masks despite being bulkier end up being much much more comfortable. To the point that even a surgical mask stretched over an N95 with an exhaust feels better to me than just a surgical mask..

They're also easier to find now. Genuine 3M masks are going for pre-COVID prices at hardware stores and always in stock (don't go in planning to clear out shelves though: I'm pretty sure there are buy limits, and more importantly some people do require them for their work)
The big city that is also pleasant to live in
I've been a heavy, 1 oz. of Indica a week smoker for decades, while being an extremely productive lead and principal software engineer on dozens of highly visible tech products. I am part of a heavy smoking, high tech collective of startup and career research individuals from companies people use everyday. I start my day with a combination of THC and caffeine, which folds into a deep work and research focus lasting the entire day. Over time, fellow high tech heavy smokers have identified one another, forming a moderately secret heavy smokers network that support one another in non-legal places, sometimes meet at big conventions, or we realize a number of us are at an airport at the same time and all meet in the smoker's den.
> For example, if you have a stack variable and pass a reference to a short-lived thread, Rust will just throw an error, because there is no way for Rust to prove that the lifetime of the borrow is short enough (bounded from above) because Rust does not have linear types.

Rust has scoped threads for this use case. Generally this uses closures as opposed to lifetimes to "bound borrows from above" in a safe way.

I don't know how to find use-after-free bugs in arbitrary code, no matter how much time I devote to the task. I just can't keep enough state in my head at once.
Thats still not "tens of millions" and a huge portion of these will be caused by the measurement done in the name of fighting COVID.

Either way smoking has killed more people each year for many years now than COVID + all pandemic related excess death in one year together.
That should give a context of how minuscule it is on a global scale. Like we are still an order of magnitudes away from making the global population stop growing.

If you know a person who died due to COVID and everyone you know also know a person who died due to COVID then everyone subjectively things many many people died but most people know 100+ people and every person who dies was know by many people so in reality only a fraction of a percent of all people would need to die for this to be statically true.
Generally agree with this, with one specific addition:

Spend some sober hours wrapping my head around some new concept (e.g. programming pattern/paradigm or theory topic) or just reading a large codebase for the first time. At a certain point, my brain is just “done”. Then a small toke of some good weed with the intention of checking out and relaxing. More often than not, the effect is the opposite: the complex material i had spent the previous hours analyzing starts to piece itself together in new ways and my energy and interest in the task is restored to 100%.

While it may not be the right time to hammer out a complete implementation, it has often assisted in that crucial step of “getting it”. This happened for me often with topics that require a new perspective e.g. vector calculus and functional programming patterns

Edit: for reference, I am a heavy user (typically on 2+ doses/day), with occasional long breaks of weeks/months. I believe “tolerance” plays the dominant role in programmers’ experience with this. After a month long break, there is NO way I’m able or interested to work with complex systems of any sort when under the influence.
> China also don't care to understand the west one bit. China has zero cultural understand about anything beyond its borders

Well, consider how many people in China have learned English, can read articles / online discussions in English, or have traveled to the west. Contrast that to the number of westerners who can read Chinese or have been to China.

China surely understands the west a lot better than the other way around. It just disagrees and has its own interests to look after.

appreciation for the often discussed japanese zoning system http://urbankchoze.blogspot.com/2014/04/japanese-zoning.html
As Epse says, there is no “in Europe” for this. The rules for masks on children varies greatly between countries. But letting the kids wear a mask is certainly not seen as child abuse over where I live. Maybe as unnecessary or as “overly cautious/protective” but I haven’t heard of people calling CPS because children had to wear a face mask.
I'm in a similar situation where I use cannabinoids basically 24/7. But for me I don't like inhalation anymore because it spikes the blood concentration too far and too fast for my liking. Edibles not only provide a more consistent and long lasting effect, but also saves money if you make your own from the flower you would have smoked. Part of this is because a similar inhaled dose compare to eaten, the eaten dose will last longer and be slightly more efficacious due to first pass metabolism.
If you are on Windows and have a recent nvidia gpu, their "Broadcast" app is phenomenal at this. Their noise cancellation hides my treadmill sounds and clicky keyboard while I remain clear and, as a bonus, the background blur actually looks like real bokeh which seems to make people think I'm running a much higher end setup than I am.
How do you access your notes on mobile?

That's only one key variable -- look also at what commercial flying has become (horrible): unruly passengers, mask mandates, flight attendants more authoritative (and understandably defensive) -- not to mention that people basically wear pajamas and sweat pants when they travel anymore.

I'm glad to see the new options becoming available. They might be much more expensive, but they'll be worth it to many (including myself).
It's quite useful for movies that were edited to meet a length but don't actually have the content to match. Some speed can raise the interest density to make it watchable again. Also/similarly for some older movies which have a slower-paced style that doesn't fit today's conventions and expectations. Slower takes more art/skill to do more with less, and it's so refreshing when it works. [Same for wide shots rather than close-up frantically-cut action.] I'd never speed those up, and rather watch them on a day I have the time.

I disagree strongly with the article's central thesis, but it is still worth critically examining the source and utility of advice. Even honest and sincerely given advice is often more a form of nostalgia on the part of the giver than a lucid examining of your specific situation and the nuances therein.

It's most often a form of "well this is what I wish I'd done when I was in a similar situation years ago" or "here's what I did when I was in your position and let me tell you how great a choice it was." That is meaningfully distinct from and a lot more common than the much more useful version "I once had something similar happen and afterwards concluded that I should have done X, but the world has changed over the decades and now it seems like kX would yield better outcomes based on Y."
In Canada it's not so much how that works especially Ontario where I am at. Yes some illegal sales got rolled up into the legal market, but very little. It's very strict to be legit here. All the illegal money for rolled up into real estate instead looks like. :)
>> Cases 5 and 10 in the article are actually ambiguous.

They are. He does mention using interpolation to make better boundaries. For example if you're using a threshold value and flag points as above/below that value, you can position the end-point of a line based on that threshold. When the lines don't exactly split a squares edge then cases 5 and 10 can be made less ambiguous by selecting the lines that minimize total line-length within a square. Or some similar heuristic.

I was talking about COVID specifically but yes. I'd say it's fairly clearly higher risk than being at home or in an outdoor location. Might be lower risk than an indoor restaurant or a crowded indoor sporting event.

Data would be hard. If you go to a big convention in Las Vegas and get sick--of which there are plenty of anecdotes--did it happen at the airport, on the plane, somewhere at the event, in a restaurant, in a casino, etc.?
That's the point of the comment you're responding to - the USA has term limits, which means that the damage a single bad leader can do is limited.
To me it’s less about the mask itself. What makes it unbearable is the additional point of friction it creates. There are varying opinions and comfort levels with wearing them and it’s leading to violent confrontations. People are losing their humanity over it and it makes everyone else onboard anxious, in my opinion of course.

When public transit systems begin having issues with disruptive passengers the same thing happens. The more well off will trade their money for the convenience of not dealing with it.
Publicity stunts aren't inherently bad, especially if it's for unselfish reasons. It looks like this person wanted to take this opportunity to make a statement about the Mormon church and its stance on LGBTQ. I say kudos.
