I don't buy that one bit. They could update the UI in one go, but that's not what they decided to do. When you look at what has been brought over to the new whitespace-everywhere settings, they have decided that what needs modernisation isn't only the UI, but also the preferences themselves. That means it's really hard to change, and not everything can be changed.

Whenever something is brought to that forsaken app, the old functionality is simplified and changed. Sometimes everything makes it through to the new app, sometimes breadcrumbs are left in the back of the couch, meaning you can click on stuff and end up in XP land.

With this current strategy, I do not believe Windows will ever have one single UI for its settings like macOS.
Twice, legally bought standardized in powdered form from an online smartshop. I found it less severe than psilos, more mellow, not very visual (but I had difficulty with getting visual hallucinations anyway). At one point I fell asleep and it reached the level of a waking dream. Woke up all sweaty. Back when I did it (around 2005-7), the smartshop had an OK website, and there was Erowid.
In case you haven't been keeping up with current events, Congress has been wrapped up with a bow, put on the shelf, and sold. Pelosi is not even pretending to hide it, while there are fistfights in the streets for COVID tests two years into this pandemic. Big Sugar (is this the same lobby that puts high-fructose corn syrup into everything?) not being Fuckable With is a relatively luxurious issue. Livelihoods depend on their rent-seeking.

If a top Madison Avenue agency offered to work with the Surgeon General for free to develop a national effort to promote exercise and nutrition education in youth, and fight pandemic depression, I bet that Big Sugar would lobby against it.
It’s not the fatness but rather the corporate greed and dishonest advertising that’s the real issue, because people don’t realize the fatness isn’t natural and caused by diet. This stems, in my opinion, as a lack of general ethics and morals in the face of big cash. I have given up trying to figure out how we can instill ethics and morals into people these days, because cash is king. Maybe a crazy solution would be to limit how much anyone can make to like 50x minimum wage, then most people might not sell their ethics for piles of money? I don’t know but clearly many people would rather sell out their fellow humans for a big payday.

The Faster Payments Service, which has allowed transfers between accounts of any UK bank which usually happen within minutes has existed since 2008. And it is free to use for non-business account holders throughout the entire market.

Paym, which allows transfers using mobile numbers is available with most high-street banks, but notably, not the fintech banks has been available since 2014. So arguably the fintech banks are behind the curve here, likely to try and drive some sort of network effect to increase friction of transferring money to customers of other banks.

Were the existing banks processes, apps & websites janky before the likes of Monzo came about? Sure, to varying extents. But the actual method of making transfers between accounts hasn't been influenced at all by the new banks, they're all using the existing structures that everybody was using before.

> In this case god-hating atheists confirm the existence of god in the form of 'concept' you may say.

C'mon, no atheist is remotely claiming that God doesn't exist even as a concept. You can't possibly think this is what any atheist ever meant?

On the face of it it's almost impossible to claim that something doesn't exist as a concept, since making such a claim creates the concept. Some atheists might claim there are logical inconsistencies in the concept of God, but that's still different from claiming the concept doesn't exist.
That makes sense, because the attachment is going to be base64 encoded within the email and thus the size is inflated by 33%. This results in the size being roughly 47 MB in size.
was it a login attempt or an actual login?
Perhaps, but since the premise of the solution is that Ubisoft must be legally required to provide a certain service to the current bearer of the token, then it seems overkill to put this on a distributed database system with a complicated consensus model. If Ubisoft is already legally required to recognize it, then surely they can also be required to host a service for moving ownership or maintaining a usage counter in a publicly verifiable manner. Still, NFTs are not the solution here.
Discord - a lack of agreement or harmony

Synonyms for discord

conflict, disaccord, discordance, discordancy, disharmony, dissension (also dissention), dissent, dissidence, dissonance, disunion, disunity, division, friction, infighting, inharmony, schism, strife, variance, war, warfare

Seems pretty fitting? :)
Well, you could argue that requiring to login to download a game is DRM as well.

While to some degree that is technically true but it is not what the whole DRM debate has been about.
I'm pretty sure you can get a full login attempt history from them in the ui - can't verify though, don't use LP anymore.

Try a bogus attempt yourself with wrong PW, or from a cloud host/vpn/etc to verify the audit log you can access.

Assuming it does list your attempts, then yeah, it would have to be phishing/lp bug.
It looks very nice and I look forward to using it.

A downside for package authors (once Zig gets to the point of having a package ecosystem) will be that syntax errors are checked only with the comptime parameters that are actually used at call sites. To maintain compatibility, authors of public APIs will need tests with commonly-used comptime parameters.

It seems like a good way to avoid lots of type-level complexity in the language, though.
I occasionally take a moment to pause, reflect, and appreciate the luck that I have to exist, and the beauty of the universe. I try to use the pragmatic aspects of buddhism (the Eightfold Path is a very useful guidebook for a good life), although I'm not ideologically a full-blown buddhist.

This seems kind of like taking antibiotics to help with stomach bugs.

The big question is if someone gets on your DB server and wants to change a record how does the software prevent them from altering a record and then recomputing the remainder of the chain?
Yes but what was your life like when you smoked heroin for the first time? Were you economically comfortable, employed, married, had kids, had a strong social network, had strong ties to institutions in your community?
Ask HN: Difference between licensing software binaries vs. source?
I want to release a software application so that everyone can use it for free, non-commercially.

With non-commercial I mean: I'm fine if companies use it internally, as long as they don't start selling the software itself or use it in a marketed software product.

There is a lot of online advice for licensing open-source software, but I am not interested in releasing the source code, and the software does not include any GPL-licensed components.

Obviously: IANAL - as in: totally clueless.

Does the question even make sense? Do binaries even need a license?
To me one thing that would make it require a license is the "non-commercial use".
Another thing might be that I want people to be able to use it, and sometimes the absence of a license, the legal uncertainty that brings, is inhibitive.

Any advice, discussion or links are very much appreciated.
Since the article doesn't bother to explain the regression method or its implementation, I'll assume this is ordinary least squares regression, a method invented over 200 years ago. It's only shown to work with two variables, so perhaps it is just determining the equation for a line through two points. Either way, this is something that has been trivial to do using your own brain before even the C64 existed.

Of course this is a neat exercise to do on a C64, but in no way does this give any reason to think we're doing something wrong by using more powerful computers to study vastly more data (using more complex algorithms - we are not just doing "the same thing" as in this demo). The gap between showing that you can fit a line to two points on old hardware and concluding that modern data science is one big heap of inefficiency is just too large.

If the data is being added or updated continually how do you prevent the database from growing without bound?
Personally I just stick to local Keepass database files. I’ve never ventured into the cloud based services. If you are really worried about it, do you really need to use a cloud based password service?

Sure, managing the KeePass files by hand is certainly more cumbersome, but to me it’s worth it for the security/ peace of mind gains. I have never put my DB or key files in the cloud. And when I need to sync them up over all my devices, I gather all the DB files and use the handy ‘merge’ functionality to get them into the same state.
Etymologically, spirit originally seems to have meant something like breath or life (hence "aspirated"). The reification of that sense into an otherworldly Being is a later development. So maybe there's some room for an atheist to be "spiritual" in the simple sense that one would contemplate the significance or meaning of being or existing. The only assertion that atheism makes is a negative one--namely, that the theists are wrong. That doesn't necessarily preclude one from having some other idea about the nature of being.
> ultimately if it comes out of a screen you can always capture the output, no amount of DRM will ever prevent this

I think that the end goal for the media companies is to add watermarking to all media and require watermark detection on all video-recording equipment, to include cameras. This would be terribly bad, but I think it is technically possible.
It seems like such as clear cut example of how "bad people" think though. They always considered themselves justified in harming others.

Variations of "the golden rule" are common around the world. If you actively decide to treat others in a way that you don't want to be treated, then you've failed the most universal rule of being a decent person.

I fully understand thoughtless knee jerk behavior that is unethical, but taking your time and calming coming up with the idea that you are special and it's ok to harm others... it's just a bit strong on the cognitive dissonance.

I am not capturing the data quite like the author of the web page, I don't think I have the mental fortitude to do such a thing. I have tried on ocassion to do so, but I've not been able to make it stick.

I have been tracking the metrics of my life to varying degrees for close to four decades now. Every book I've read, every movie I've watched, every music album I've listened too, every science paper I've read through (rather than just glanced at), the bills each month, breakdown of grocery bills by product for the past 20+ years, every recipe I've ever cooked (though not every meal I've ever ate) for the past 10+ years, continuous screenshots of my desktop from my laptops and workstations, and recently (past 8+ years), multiple angle RGBD (colour+depth) photos of my home office and my home workshop. For a few years (between 2001 and 2008) I wore a homemade SenseCam that captured hundreds of photos per day as I went about my life.

I am always interested in other people's personal life logging habits so this is a fascinating insight in to it.
Thanks for that added context. I think it is a tricky situation but I guess the rights of the author would extend to them requesting that their name be removed from forks that they don’t agree with, including from the title. However, I don’t know if the author should be able to force you to change the title of a fork that they themselves didn’t make, whether they currently maintain the software or not. It is still accurate to say that it is a fork of a prior state of the project, even if it has since been modified. It gets into Ship of Theseus territory.
That's honestly not a bad way to do it.

To speed things up a little, you can evaluate exactly what you need in the REPL to trigger the error. You can even paste the Nix expression with the fake sha in and it'll be quicker than evaluating your entire build.

There's probably a CLI out there that fetches it a la nix-prefetch-url/git/etc

> the type checker can loop forever

Oversimplifying: Zig anyways gives you "compiler branching tokens" so your type system can't loop forever, if I'm not mistaken
Guess? Either you fell for a phish or my intuition tells me you may have run an infostealer malware (exfils data and leaves little trail). No matter what type of 2fa you have, it is useless if the auth token can be accessed post authentication (cookie theft basically).
You don't need access to a password to check it, just the hash (then they hash what you enter and compare the hash to the one they have). So both "They use it to log in to their whatever" and "They don't have access to it" can be correct.
There is a direction of prayer, but Muslims do not conceive God to have dimensions, so He is not in any direction.

The Sierpinski triangle was the first "complex" system I had managed to draw, using the Logo programming language in the 90s. I recently tried to do a vtk 3D extension (Sierpinski cube)[1] using the same process as in the OP, but it was surprisingly computationally expensive!

Linksys WRT3200ACM is what i recommend. supports openwrt. my 3200 is at my parents being used as an AP only. their router is a Cisco 1921 with zone based firewall and some poe 3750 switches.

My setup here is a Cisco ASA 5512x firewall, catalyst 3750GBe poe switch, WLAN2504 controller and several CAP3702 APs. this requires quite a bit of experience to setup, but works very well. the wlan controller and two APs will probably cost about $300. that alone could be used behind your ISP modem if desired. i’ve got gigabit fiber up/down from ATT and use their modem but pass thru the IP to my asa.
It's the UK governments fault since they choose to impose those requirements on us by brexiting (and not bothering to negotiate anything until a few days before exit day).

That's literally the UK governments job. It is not Germanys job to make Brexit work for British citizens.
> 100% atheism. Was raised some kind of protestant I forget which one, and derived tremendous spiritual and psychological relief when I realized all of that was absolute nonsense at the age of 9.

As an armchair Taoist (and psychologist/neuroscientist), I consider this as jumping from the frying pan into the fire, or another frying pan at least. Although, the current popularity of this metaphysical framework is undeniable, as was the historic (and current) popularity of many more traditional metaphysical frameworks (religions).

I exaggerate, but it's still nowhere near the usual 210 natural FoV. That's just how it feels after a while in these first and second gen headsets.

> As you starting adding more degrees of FoV you start needing to render more and more pixels due to the distortion

Exactly, and since they've added no FoV (the original 6 year old oculus had an 80-90 deg FoV, albeit with a shitty 1200x1200 resolution) the extra density seems a bit gratuitous.

The existence of a concept is not the same thing as the existence of the thing the concept refers to.
It's a common pattern as others have said, but this specific version of it is poor practice. The code should be in a function instead of polluting the global namespace (otherwise 'console', 'table', and 'color' end up being shadowed if they're used elsewhere in the file). Keep it clean with e.g.:

def main() -> None:
pass

if __name__ == "__main__":
main()

As you yourself almost immediately mention, that's not checking for overflow.

Was the goal here to show that C and C++ programmers don't understand what overflow is?

> Yes, but this happens to be defined behavior, even if it’s what you don’t want most of the time

The defined behaviour is an overflow. Correct. So, checking for undefined behaviour does not check for overflow. See how that works?
Yes. First experienced TMJ pain as a teenager and almost overdosed on painkillers while trying to get rid of it at 3AM. Still recurrs about 2-3 times per year, but I've now learned to feel it coming on much earlier and start loading up on codiene in advance.
If you were writing a library, and a language feature made it possible to make your library easier to use safely, why would you not?

You might as well say, "I don't see why a more expensive dinner has to be tastier."

It is always easy to make libraries that are hard to use, in any language, but those do not become popular if there are better alternatives.

We need generics because users have types that they need libraries to work with. Your own example, of an intrusively-linked list, illustrates this: without generics, you could not write a linked-list library component that would be usable for that. This is why C programs are crammed with so many custom one-off hash tables: You cannot code a useful hash table library in C.

Libraries start simple, and accumulate your "heavy machinery" as they are made more useful and usable for their growing family of users. A library that lacks users does not.
I think React with SSR gives you that experience with the added bonus that you can use nice isolated and reusable UI components. The downside is you are forced to use JavaScript/Typescript for basically everything. Fortunately Typescript is a pretty decent language overall.

Also there are some systems trying to do the same thing but using Wasm (e.g. Percy).

I don't know what you do, but for our codebase, we run transactions against the database in most of the integration tests. We can't generally be sure the database won't return rows in some order it likes that aren't the rows we expect -- so if we don't have a generic sorting function we will have flaky tests.
From my interaction with LastPass support (I'm a premium user), they've outsourced to some cheap company where agents have no clue how anything works. It took weeks to get through to somebody who even understands the problem and their reply was essentially "yeah we know it's broken, it's broken because of security".

Left a really bad taste in my mouth. I wouldn't be using them at all if I didn't have to for a client.
Right, because society is exactly the same as being in the military, engaged in a hot war.
As a kid my parents thought I was lonely / lacking friends. In reality, the fact that this was their perception was really embarrassing for me so I generally wouldn't hang out with friends around the house. Please, if you're parents don't badger kids about their friends, obviously make sure they aren't druggy skaters - encourage social activity / talking to strangers, hostesses etc. The one thing I wish my parents did was force me to make social skills at a young age.

Most of the problems that C++ added on top of C are caused by RAII though (e.g. a too rigid coupling of code and data). I think Zig made the right decision with the 'defer' keyword, even if it requires some change of perspective.
>"Imagine you went to a seafood restaurant and asked about their food safety, and the owner told you they follow all applicable food safety rules. Yes, I’m sure they do, but I would hope the owner puts thoughts into his process to ensure safety beyond the reach of regulators. That should be the starting point, yes, but to not even consider your company’s role in the process is surprising."

Not really sure I see the problem here. Of course they have internal mechanisms to make sure that things work as intended but if you already don't believe them what's the point of using that as an argument?

I think it's a straight forward answer to say you comply with regulators in a highly regulated industry. If a restaurant tells me they follow standards I'm good, at least in a country with reasonable ones.

The entire article is basically a hatchet job because a pharma CEO gave bland answers to questions, including complaining about the fact that he didn't have a take on the social impact of pharma advertising. Of course he doesn't, he's a pharma CEO, if you want that fixed elect people who will get it done, I think the CEO was just mostly honest in the sense that his answers are obviously biased so he wasn't going to give one on a question were you wouldn't believe it anyway.
