DRM'd video content uses the same video codecs and containers, but introduces segment encryption during the packaging phase. In most cases, this encryption is within the audio and video samples rather than on the entire segment. Most content is encrypted using MPEG Common Encryption (CENC) - though there are a couple of variants.

Decryption keys are then exchanged using one of the common proprietary DRM protocols, usually Widevine (Google), Playready (Microsoft), or Fairplay (Apple). The CDM (Content Decryption Module) in the browser is then passed the decryption key, so the browser. Can decrypt the content for playback.

It's harder to make that bug. The common case is "year of era", so it is likely to be used for "year()".

On the other hand the much less often used "year of week" would be named "year_of_week()" and hence it is clear to everyone that's not likely what you want.

Not to judge the content quality but I'm curious about the motivation to build this website. Why? Because in the recent days we were discussing the poor quality Google search results and one argument is that the results are poor because the quality of the content has degraded due to the motivations of the content creators, i.e. optimising everything for SEO and views, likes. etc. with guidance of analytics.

So how this works? Is the creator of the website doing SEO here? Will this be sold later? Is it a project for a portfolio? Why are we getting this good quality content? Will it be surfaced by Google?

Not that I suspect anything nefarious, just curious about how original content(beyond commentary on social media) is made these days. What made that content possible? Why the creator(s) spent time to create graphics and text and payed for a domain name and probably hosting?

.NET strings are backed by two-byte UTF-16 codepoints, not bytes in an unknown encoding.

But ordinal comparison means ignoring equivalence classes, like U+006E (n) + U+0303 (combining tilde) being considered the same as U+00F1 (ñ). But - perhaps more surprisingly - .net's non-ordinal match also matches things like "ß" and "ss".

That leads to some weird things like even if two strings compare as equal in the invariant culture, if you uppercase them in the invariant culture they may no longer be considered equal.

And that's all before you start looking at culture-variant behaviors like different cultures having different casing rules (see Turkish dotless i) or approaches to diacritic equivalence for sorting.
Its the beginning, I quoted relevant parts of the second and third sentences. DMCA is just a guess, but that is backed up by the facts as Rogan is Spotify only.

Unedited full paragraph: "The episode in question, No 1757, was uploaded to Spotify on New Year's Eve, as Mr Rogan has an exclusive deal with the streaming service. While Mr Rogan no longer uploads full shows to YouTube, several third-party channels have taken it upon themselves to post the episodes that would otherwise only be available on Spotify."

And the tag line under the title, "While the controversial episode remains on Spotify, YouTube has removed a video of the full interview which was uploaded by an unofficial channel"
No, it means there will be three binaries instead of two.

Note that statically linked musl binaries run fine on glibc Linux, so you can just distribute musl binaries. That works right now. In the future, you will just distribute Rustix binaries, which will be hopefully smaller than musl binaries (because it doesn't need to support C API).

oh, I 100% agree that the practice is awful, corn syrup shouldn't exist and animals are mostly supposed to eat grass, not corn. I was just pointing out that these are things that are enabled by industrialized farms, so if they went away (which would be great) then the overuse of corn would have to go away too.

that is my larger point is, if small farms can feed the US, it's likely that US food culture / economics would need to change pretty radically for that to happen.
Yes we do, and we have had it for thousands of years. But because modern ‘enlightened’ people refuse to accept the truth—that consciousness is the Absolute, or more correctly, unconditioned objectless awareness—it has been marginalized in favor of imaginary, unprovable ‘scientific’ theories.

False, the Stack/Grid style component has been a maintstay of XAML based layouts for over a decade now, and at least generally speaking two decades old.

Debian's Approach to Rust: Dependency Handling
> 'the a is silent' isn't really right, because it's just a modern rendering of æ, there is no 'a' (or 'e') really.

I don't understand what you're saying. Æ is a medieval innovation, a fancier way of writing the separate letters AE when they occur in sequence. It doesn't differ from a more modern fi ligature in that regard.

(It is a letter in its own right in Old English, but not here.)

> Secondly, æ pronunciation differs depending on etymology (here, Latin's borrowing from Greek).

And this doesn't look right either. Latin has AE where Greek has AI because that is how that vowel (the PRICE vowel in English) was spelled in Latin. Whether the word was borrowed into Latin from Greek or native to Latin makes no difference to the pronunciation.

As I mentioned above, Old English Æ is a different thing with a different pronunciation, but that's not really relevant here because Old English Æ never survives with the modern spelling AE. Compare þæt -> that / æfter -> after / æsc -> ash ......

What would be an example of the pronunciation of AE differing according to the etymology of the words?

When I was looking for a new mobile phone I've crossed over new generations of Huawei due to a lack of Google integration. Sure, there are ways to get Google Maps and other services onto them but I don't like such type on installation process. It works, or I will not use it. The device is here to make my life easier.

I totally understand what you mean when you talk about feeling of integration. I like Google and their tools, I like the fact that I can use "Login with Google" on many different services, I like the fact that I have single account for large number of services, that I can backup my mobile phone even without knowing where the data is (this is not necessary a good thing ;) ). So for me the biggest plus of integration is single account for multiple services.
There's a whole thing at work here that basically goes to credibility and obvious intention.

I don't know anybody who hears Musk talk and thinks "that's a true statement." He's a circus barker. We might call him a bullshitter -- he's making a big noise, but nobody really thinks he means most of what he says.

Musk has spent years building this persona, and so people generally treat him with the level of credibility he has established he deserves.

I still think he's being dishonest at best, but the rational world's response to "gee I bet my life savings on his robot taxi prediction" would be ridicule.

It could be useful for the same person to register in many different places, to check if somebody is interested in visiting that part of the world together in future.

Maybe a site like this one could let me find people from other parts of the world (or from Australia) willing to do the same journey. Times by other crazy ideas and maybe one of them could come true.

Non American here, why do people use this infantile term to refer to a spouse? Unless I am mistaken, the father of her child is her husband - why use another term?

But her husband _is_ as far as we know, the father of her child.

> I'm not sure what leads you to believe that a SPA requires "MBs of JS" to work.

> In fact, this very discussion on HN, a very spartan dynamic HTML page, currently requires over 250kB as it dumps all the threads regardless of whether you read them or not. As a contrast, Reddit's frontpage takes 750kB.

You can use tools like your browser’s developer tools or webpage test to accurately measure this. It seems like that would be a useful skill to develop for accurately reasoning about SPAs and understanding why your beliefs don’t match real users’ experiences.

For example, Reddit.com is actually 10MB of transfer, not 750KB, and it takes 5 seconds to process 6.7MB of JavaScript (47 requests to transfer 1.8MB of compressed JavaScript) which delays the start of rendering until 2 seconds in and requires almost 10 seconds to render the top of the page.

https://webpagetest.org/result/220104_AiDcHT_cf05f20e55718cf...

In contrast, the HN page requires a TOTAL of 62KB to render in less than a second:

https://webpagetest.org/result/220104_AiDcAH_1c302fd66a183aa...

That’s an enormous difference which is extremely noticeable if you don’t have a fast computer and network connection, and that’s before you get to the serious bugs Reddit has because their SPA doesn’t handle errors or session timeouts well (I see this on a near-daily basis).

I have a recent iPhone and the new Reddit SPA lags notably behind the old version, which renders twice as fast and is more reliable because it uses a tenth of the code:

One thing I liked about Couchsurfing that I think could have potential is the concept of vouches. You can only vouch for someone once you've received enough vouches. That along with with references provided a good way to quickly gauge the character and trustworthiness of a person. To gain vouches and references you had to have invested in the community. Not perfect, but often good enough. Couchsurfing also had volunteer community safety ambassadors, but I think less people seem motivated to do that kind of thing these days. I think a lot of the oldschool Couchsurfing moved to BeWelcome and Trustroots

i believe they are referring to the whatsapp bug that the saudi prince used on jeff bezos. simply sending bezos a message gave the saudi prince root access on his phone and he dumped all his messages and photos and released them to the press. running in a vm would just have whatsapp so they can send and receive messages without exposing all the private information on their phone in case of some 0day
I feel like I'm missing a few dots to connect that problem with the proposed solution...
In response to the comments of the form "just install PTZ cameras", I have done an installation like this for a modest-sized site, and it is extremely difficult and time consuming (+ expensive) to install enough cameras to cover the site if you want any chance of actually recognising a face or a numberplate. If all you want to know is: "blob detected at rear gate", it's of course a lot easier, but then you might as well use a PIR sensor.

The problem is mapping a 3D space, where a 'perp' can often face in any direction, onto a series of 2D planes. PTZ cameras only help if they are meticulously programmed to track movement or respond to motion events from other sources, or you have a skilled operator 24x7.

It's even harder if the system needs to work well at night, since it requires either IR or visible light illumination.

I don't know how well this drone+sensors setup would work, but can definitely imagine there is a subset of the market where this would be better than fixed cameras, perhaps a large property where there are multiple entrances and exits, and lots of potential targets. e.g. a farm, where there are long easily traversed boundaries between the property and neighbouring properties.
“Lambda” doesn’t have a ‘b’ sound in it, either.

I forgot how bad JS's date API was until I tried getting the year out of a date.

var date = new Date()
date.getYear() // 122

I plugged this into another object and couldn't understand why it was setting the date to 0122. Like, what significance does 122 years from 1900 even have?

Turns out I had to use getFullYear, which is of course perfectly intuitive.

That's when you can be more precise if you want: `[year padding:zero repr:full base:calendar sign:automatic]`. The format is also checked on compile time.
Another confusing thing is that in java's newer datetime api, java.time, yyyy is also incorrect as it means `year-of-era` while `u` means `year` so you would use `uuuu`

No that's not unreasonable. Thanks for clarifying.
What M-W attributes to "lexical meddlers" is almost certainly the result of the very common practice of borrowing latin words, and, when the word is in common use, abbreviating it. Originally the latin word would have always been pronounced "debitum" when read, even if abbreviated "debt." So the b certainly was pronounced. It just wasn't English to begin with.

I work in old manuscripts, and this practice is very common. It's not surprising that an abbreviation in common use ended up becoming a word of its own. Mix in the French pronunciation, and the modern spelling and pronunciation is explained without any "meddling" needed.

What if your 'business hour' was 0130[^] (business logic for some reason, rather than a working hour, presumably; hence quotes) - what do you want to happen when you go in to Summer time, or come out of it?

[^] in the UK at least, clocks go forward skipping the hour 0100-0200, and repeat it when they go back. If that happens at a different time where you are (this hypothetical feature gets even more complicated! and) then I mean whatever appropriate time for my point to make sense.

The hard thing is that I read English the whole day, I don't often listen to it. And pronunciation is really unpredictable -- I once lost a bet because I couldn't believe that "finite" and "infinite" were pronounced so differently.

I happen to know about "debt". But variants of it, like "indebted"? Who knows?

If you don't work with someone who seems like gandalf had he gotten into graph theory, consider switching jobs.

Working with talented people really pours gasoline on your career.

Also consider a mindset switch. The choice of the word powerless is interesting here. There are modes of thinking you can get into where you just want to get to "fixed" or "done". In my experience that mindset makes problems harder to solve.

I would encourage instead a kind of eccentric puzzler mindset. Instead of thinking in terms of the dread of explaining to your boss the problem still isn't done, think about it as another day at the puzzle factory.

The way you become gandalf by the way. Is by working really hard on the seemingly impossible puzzles. Always going deeper, reading books, asking experts, developing patience.
