This reminds me of a time when a black dude knocked on my door to tell me he was going to climb over from near my balcony to some surface above to get something his kid had gotten stuck there. I had a “ok why are you telling me this?” Look on my face. So he followed with “I’m telling you so you don’t call the cops because a black guy is climbing near your balcony”. I was puzzled. He gave me a “you sweet summer child look” and left.

I think about that person frequently. How ingrained is the racist reality in your mind that the first thing you do is to tell people before you do it? Sucks.
Why? Putting SSH behind a WireGuard VPN provides stronger security guarantees than port knocking and is built into the OS on both my server and my clients.

This guy needs help. I'm kind of surprised nobody in the article suggested it.

>Leaving password auth on is simply negligent

I know this is an oft-repeated trope, but I disagree. If you are whitelisting users for ssh and use secure passwords, you're really quite safe. Whereas if you lose access to your device with ssh keys, you're locked out with no hope of getting back in.

In what sense is it "negligent"? I feel like this is just an example of people constantly repeating popular advice without really considering it, like happened with bad password expiration policies. Like, I get that an ssh key probably has more entropy, but there is such a thing as good enough. My ssh password for my server is mixed case with numbers, and 20+ characters. Good luck cracking it.
Good advice. Hong Kong government blocked access to some sites these days but at least I can access it with Cloudflare DNS
You took the most extreme position of the right and contrasted it with the tamest position of the left… did you mean it as a gotcha?

Let’s reverse it:
“One side is made up of constitutional Patriots who dislike the scale of the federal government, the other side is made up of Marxists who hand wave away the inevitable famine and ruin that results from their ideology.”

I could accept a comparison between BLM and the Boogaloos because they are the least radical of their respective camps and have grievances with the police and state. But you’re comparing BLM with the pitiful number of self declared neo Nazis in the same way that the right tars BLM with the pitiful number of tankies who latch on to social justice in order to further their revolution.

I've read a few of Ted Gioia's books about jazz and 20th C music, and they're uniformly excellent - very well-researched and very well written. I think The Jazz Standards: A Guide to the Repertoire was my favourite - fascinating investigations into the stories behind 250+ jazz standards. Music: A Subversive History is also a great read. Also The History of Jazz etc.

Tailwind is a masterclass with regard to how to market this kind of thing.

1. Release the core of your product for free (basicially give 95% away for nothing)

2. Sell premium features/components (the last 5% of your product for serious people with a budget)

Tailwind is selling their CSS framework UI component kit for $400!!!

It's a freaking simple little design system which is nothing in comparison to what you've built here and they are *rolling* in money.

Good luck.
Which is perfectly reasonable, given that the so-called GBD is basically pseudoscience.
It's all fun and games until somebody reacts badly and dies.

I feel like at least both of these have redeemable qualities, though.

Blockchain is amazing (I love my signed git commits and the integrity that provides), but proof of work is contributing to the destruction of the planet.

A platform to unite people with needs to solutions for those needs is amazing, but less so when it goes to the highest bidder rather than the best or most individual-appropriate solution.

Because of shipping shortages, and the realization that we need to make more of our own stuff, I recently decided to switch to “made in the USA” writing tools. I’m using a Fisher Space Pen and a homemade pocket notebook that is similar to the Field Notes brand (which is also made in the US). I’ve been surprisingly happy with the fisher space pen and I keep it in my pocket 24/7.
These two things are not mutually exclusive, are they?
I love HN and it’s always amazing to see the founders answer the questions themselves and most importantly care a lot about the product.
funny enough, I too worked for a phone survey company back in the day and saw the same behavior. The hardest part was convincing people that we were weren't telemarketers. The company also had a small squad doing surveys in high traffic locations like malls and my friends who worked there made a lot of money inflating unverifiable survey responses.

I was in DECA too and it's a shame they don't disclose details on how they conducted this survey.
I'm sorry about what you went through with this person. This statute requires prosecutors to prove intent on behalf of Microsoft; it also requires active concealment, intentional aid in avoiding arrest, or warning (or "harboring", which would require Microsoft to actually provide physical shelter and concealment). Presumably the arrest warrant you're talking about is public; disclosing the existence of a public document seems unlikely to be prosecutable.

I appreciate the rest of the details you've provided on the thread!
Well no, typically you would be put on a later flight or an alternate route. Maybe we should be willing to accept a non-zero chance that our plans will be disrupted by several hours to avoid burning massive amounts of extra carbon.
This is weird, because it requires actively planning for your death (which some people do, of course, but most do not), and also because it does nothing that can't be done by just cloning repos.
I really want to try and deploy smallstep at home but one stumbling block I always hit is deploying the CA (or ideally the mTLS certificate!) to end user devices like phones, laptops etc. Maybe I'm missing something entirely but I think I'd need a full MDM profile or setup for phones/mobile devices. Is this theoretically a lot easier than I'm making it? I'd just need an iPad, iPhone and MacBook.

Apart from that thankyou so much for what you've done and provided for the opensource community. The smallstep toolkit is truly fantastic.
Citation needed. You often get far better purity with lab scale synthesis, but the cost per mole is OOM higher.
This is horribly gamed. Host/renter give each other good ratings. Or neither rates because neither is sure what the other person will do so they wait for the other in a stalemate.
Ask HN: PLz help in thus; 3Dprint pendulum only prints when knows its position
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPbzhxYTioM

So, a 3D printer on a pendulum-wire that only 'prints' when in the spot to print at...

Filament printers wont work due to the heated-cohesion needed in the threads printed..

But a sand-like-thing + epoxy-like thing could result in the expression of the agent in any pattern as long as the pendulum is managed...

The pendulum IS the printing head, and using orbital mechanic math or some such can be used to predict when to print, etc... (You get it)

but the simplicity in this is that you have a standard struct, a pyramid of supports, and a mech to affect the height of pyrmid, and rotation of pendulum printer head at minimal cost of energy....

You have a motor with a small solar input... But you have an external engine that supplies the resources to the printer...

The printer is easily scalable in size... but requires a lot of energy on the outside to produce...

But you feed it plans, and it will squirt out the shape, as long as it fits under it's struts that house the pendulum...

So as long as you can slurp "earthen" (or martian" soiled content into the system and keep the pendulum spinning... it can print....
They should auction the slots every month. There should be no grandfathering or other incentive to hoard.
Samsung phones are exactly like what the GP describes. Maybe things have changed now but Samsung phones used to get only 2 Android version updates
Ignoring some things I would consider flaws (lack of end-to-end encryption right now), from what I’ve read it sounds like the rollout of RCS has been something between a mess and a disaster if your friends are on another carrier.

It sounded like it got to the point where phone companies were delaying so long (at least in the US) that Google is basically forcing their hand by doing everything themselves if the carriers don’t.

Meanwhile iMessage has been running for 10 years.

That said I agree with you that I see basically no reason for Apple to add it. That’s up there with iMessage for Android in probability.
I can't help feeling that research prior to deep learning was more rigorous and impressive though. When I read papers from before they tend to be filled with statistical modeling and proofs and were somewhat intimidating. Now it seems like it's a lot of "oh we made this model and it works".
> You either want one of the main driving the answers or not

But you were a dick about it, your comment is not simply explanatory - "Many android users looooooove to tell people about how much control they have over their phone. Everyone knows! Nobody cares!"

This appears to be a facet of the iphone being dominant. In the UK market for instance, this characterisation wouldn't really fly as android is used by a lot of 'normal' people.

> their own phone might explode before we get back to civilization

characterising android phones this way is like me saying that you need to hold an iphone a specific way or it won't get signal - it might have been true for one model a few years ago but isn't really relevant to most.

I guess this is why you're getting the downvotes.
This sounds like that Simpsons episode where Burns and Smithers go to a Moroccan bazaar and everything is made of drugs including the money.
I've looked it over. I understand leftists have a rich history of invoking anti-state ideology. I'm using the oxford definition of anarchism.

I'm not saying leftists can't exist in anarchism as some sort of pact or contract amongst leftist, in the sense of without coercive hierarchy. But I don't see how anarchism is inherently leftist. If leftism means socialism or some form of redistributing property involuntarily, that sounds coercive.

Voluntary exchange of property and capital is the opposite of coercion. It seems capitalism fits in neatly with anarchism.
It's not just that the key is computed, but that the key has an internal sort comparison which is way faster than a user code comparison. It was an example of the fact that "Big-Oh notation is nice, but constants sometimes matter."

Both sorts have the same O(n log n) number of operations performance. However, in Perl, using an internal comparison for integers was a significant constant faster than using a user specified comparison function--at least an order of magnitude and sometimes two. Consequently, the 2*O(n) to decorate and undecorate the list with integers to sort by got swamped by the 1/10*O(n log n) sort improvement.

I believe that this overhead eventually got reduced. However, I remember using this a LOT in Perl 4 and early Perl 5 days.
Stuff like this?

Also when the poor kids has cheap androids then kids will associate those with low status. It isn't like kids ask for items from their parents based on very rational reasons, they want the items that the popular kids in school has and avoid the items the poor kids in school has.
This is true. And when hospitals refuse non-vaccinated patients, there should be an antitrust investigation.

The newer "synthetic" (not all are actually fully synthetic) are partially a reaction to prohibition, at least most of the underground availability is a reaction. Some of these compounds have genuinely unique and interesting effects such as the auditory hallucinations of DiPT.

We really need to be able to explore these compounds and their pharmacodynamics, they can teach us so much about the brain
I think the point is that people either consciously or subconsciously know that green bubble conversations are genuinely worse, not that people literally like the color blue better.
hey congrats! are you starting some side project?
Just because only 17M people live in the Netherlands, does not mean it's OK to block them. Just because people in wheelchairs don't wall, does not mean we don't need to build streets such they can get around too. Just because some people use the Greek script, does not mean ASCII is enough.

It's called accessibility, and it's a very good thing.
I didn’t see it as an ad for Cloudflare unless I also then consider every single post about AWS in last 10 years on HN as ads.

If anything, I’m fine with a new competitor to BigCloud that’s been unchecked and increasingly hostile (cost-wise).
Might be fun? How? What’s the excitement you’re after?
I don’t know what things are like in Android land, but if 95% of your messaging is in one app it feels like a real hassle to adopt another app for just one person/group.

Would you start using a second podcast app just to listen to one individual podcast? Or would you just go without?

I’ve always assumed Android users are used to multiple messaging apps already. Is that the case?
Ripcord/Shrugs don't have mobile apps, don't run on the web, and do not need to maintain a backend.
Hmm, okay, I think I understand.

For the record, the 'sounds dubious' comment was directed at the claim that we know the "exact" age of the moon. It is more a criticism of shoddy journalism than a statement of my knowledge of the subject. I know enough to know that we cannot pinpoint the "exact" age of the moon.

And the 'knowledgeable astronomers' claim was almost more of a meek confession that idk wtf I am talking about. It was not meant sarcastically at all. I know a little, but not as much as people who went to school and do this stuff professionally.

Everyone, please note: I'm not trying to back-peddle or make excuses or anything like that here, just explaining my reasoning.

(Edit: but thanks for the criticism, it really does help to see your point of view on these things. This is a discussion board after all.)
The titles are as meaningless as the process itself. I understand what you're getting at. Everyone understands.

I'm saying these processes are pointless. They're are made up. An arbitrary set of methodologies or plans to execute certain things made up by mostly project managers.

It's like company bylaws or procedures for scheduling an event. Engineering processes are usually designed around some form of mathematical model or statistical phenomenon. This is not the case for software. Software processes aka Software engineering is just a made up set of arbitrary planning procedures.

Shit like kanban or poker planning comes to mind.

The entire software developer career isn't exactly being competitive right now.

You can either be spending your best years being seen as a barely necessary expense in an incompetent bureaucratic place, or spending your best years wasting your life on lottery tickets at a tech startup, or you can be spending your best years destabilizing democracies while greasing the wheels of an ad targeting monster laughing smugly at everyone else especially the cryptocurrency developers, or spending your best years learning how to interview at said ad targeting monster.

While the cryptocurrency developers make more than all.

So, the relativity of "oh no I wish our best and brightest did something more productive with their time" becomes extremely apparent very quickly. Is it really that tempting to debate when you know the outcome of the debate?

But hey it's good to believe in something.

We are indeed, but worth noting - that's per dollar exported and a lot of that comes from having Europe's largest ports, as well as a lot of processing and auctioning of food.

Still, we grow a very large amount of food, especially relative to the size of the country. We're the 9th largest potato producer [0] in the world, despite being a tiny country both population and size wise, because we have the highest yields in the world. Someone downthread linked a NatGeo article explaining more [1] but we have far higher yields, several times higher than any other country, on many crops, such as chilies, green peppers, cucumbers etc.

There is a story about one of the Ivy League universities. IIRC, in one of the century-or-two old buildings, there was a need to replace some main interior beams in a roof. Among the staff, someone knew someone who remembered something about this. Turns out, there was a special grove of trees, still under control of the university, which had been planted to provide replacement beams -- after 150 years of growth.

This is not the same type category of data. OP is a graph on energy consumption, your link is a graph on electricity generation. These are substantially different. Most energy consumption is not for electricity generation, only ~1/3rd is. And obviously, nearly all of the energy consumption prior to the 20th century was not for electricity.
