OP was talking about digital signatures and a hobbyist taking command of the spacecraft. In other words authentication.

You said that was unnecessary and too taxing on constrained hardware. That is incorrect. Authentication is both necessary and not excessively taxing, when both considering the risk to the spacecraft's operation or even not considering it, since, as you said yourself, authentication schemes can be reasonably lightweight.

"Not out of the realm of possibility in satellites"
What are you talking about? Of course it isn't! Authentication to satellites is recommended and implemented all the time, for obvious reasons. You think they risk a multi million dollar investment to save some clock cycles? How many commandeered satellites do you read about daily? Do you have sources to back up any of this?

I don't buy the early part either, but "3 years into the internet we had emails and tcp" is the wrong way to critique it IMO. The "Internet" meaning IP was already the 3rd or 4th (or more) attempt at trying to create a computer networking standard. Predecessors to the internet include: ARPANET, Usenet, FidoNet, BBSes, and CYCLADES, if not more. By the way, Email existed on _all_ of these platforms before TCP or even IP. Usenet used UUCP to transfer Internet Messages (the format used by Email later on). FidoNet had EchoMail. BBSes had their own custom mail message like standards. The Internet also had a direct competitor in the form of France's MiniTel.

In hindsight, it seems like "3 years into the internet we already had emails and TCP", but the seeds for these things had been in the works for a decade plus. It's a testament to the massive success of the internet that we _think_ in hindsight that "3 years into the internet we had emails and tcp".
> Are there not therapeutics out there (there are) that limit severity and reduce duration?

Yes, but they are super expensive and limited right now.

> Trying to pretend that we're going to vaccinate our way out of this is nuts, it's just whak-a-mole. Why are treatments for once you get it - and we're all going to get it - not a thing?

Trying to pretend that we have the resources to treat this once someone gets a severe case (both in terms of medicine and hospitals beds) is nuts.

If COVID is going to become endemic (and it looks like it will), then Omicron is actually a good representation of what that looks like: not as horrible as previous strains, but a lot more contagious and less vulnerable to vaccines...just like the flu that goes around every year now. But until we can establish that this is just another flu, we should be careful and do what we can (get vaccinated, boosted, wear masks, cancel that mosh pit session). And once it is just determined to be like the flu, does this mean flu season will be twice as sucky as one can get hit by the flu and then COVID every year? Ugh, even that end would not be ideal, better get vaccinated yearly for both COVID and the flu now, and health insurance premiums are definitely going up (more than they are currently going up, anyways).
Same with my nontechnical wife and daughter: they run Ubuntu.

My wife mainly uses the browser, LibreOffice, and Google Docs+Sheets. Same with my daughter, who also plays Steam games and does a bit of relatively simple Python programming.
I'd rather see number of nanoparticles per cell. There's about 300,000 eggs in an ovary and 300 are ovulated in a lifetime. Eggs are cells and cells weigh 1 nanogram each. Virus particles weigh less than a femtogram. I assume the same applies to these lipid nanoparticles. So by my calculation that would be 123 lipid nanoparticles for each cell in the ovaries. `1e-9 / (0.1e-3 * 1e-12) * (12.3e-6)`. Pfizer's drug works by programming cells to produce spike proteins on the membrane so that the immune system recognizes them as the enemy and destroys them. I wish I knew why Pfizer needed to choose a delivery method for their drug that crosses the blood brain barrier and accumulates a 10x concentration in the ovaries. Since modern delivery technologies are so advanced that they should have been able to do something less systemic.
Yes, web2 incumbents control data and they control distribution. I agree with you there!

aside; sometimes I feel like I’m taking crazy pills because for the last decade or so on HN we’ve been talking about how Big Tech has monopoly control over everything, how they’ve destroyed privacy and monetized eyeballs and engagement to the fullest. And now that a potential decentralized competitor is emerging, the kneejerk reaction is “why not just keep using <monopolistic centralized surveillance ad platform>”?

(I understand why, cryptocurrency is the whipping boy of the week, and it’s full of scammers, I get it! But I’m not going to pretend I’m happy with the existing crop of centralized services.)
Given that Omicron is swamping hospitals to the point that getting healthcare has become questionable, it's a bit premature to talk about any "new normal". Like sure we can look ahead and try to plan, but don't assume we're heading towards some steady state where things make sense again. For example, would this "new normal" include the expectation that you'll be promptly treated after a serious car accident, or not? Right now that's kind of indeterminate, depending on how bad the nursing burnout is.

This article is also talking like there is some overarching policy that is perhaps being overcautious and could be dialed back. But there is no coherent policy - rather there is the dumpster fire of laissez faire, and there are those who can avoid it. So we've got a bifurcated society with some people having the power (or making sacrifices) to insulate themselves. And those who cannot just end up in harm's way regardless of the absolute risk being low or high, possibly rationalizing their predicament. cf "What Keeps Mankind Alive".

Planning wise, if you're continuing to be cautious spring and summer will most likely be the time to go out and enjoy a year's worth of social activity in open air. That's about the extent of what you can rely upon right now.
My mother has been using Linux exclusively since I was in high school. Occasionally I have to head over to her place to deal with some weird issue but it has become less and less common over time, to the point where I am almost surprised when problems arise.

Of course she has very straightforward needs. If Firefox and VLC work she has 95% of her needs met, and the remaining 5% are related to her printer which has not been a problem for a long time now. For some people who need specific Windows software this is probably much harder, and likewise for anyone who purchase some obscure hardware that only has Windows drivers.
There is a rapid cycle of development occurring with these low end VNAs. Cheap spectrum analyzers are beginning to appear as well.
#AbolishCreditAgencies

Things were bad, or worse, before they existed. Every little town had one (I remember walking past Palo Alto’s downtown; it was just a storefront with a bunch of file cabinets). Getting credit was slow and complicated and really a pain when you moved.

And before that, even into the mid 20th century, getting credit was all about your network. And remember how much people complain about VCs relying on intros rather than cold calls…well that’s how the entire financial system used to work.

Yes the credit agencies are abusive and lazy and need serious reform and legal management, but they also provide valuable services. I believe it is possible to have the latter and fix the former.

So what is the service manager in any Linux on Android as in

Well, the average Photoshop user is a professional. I don't know if GIMP is lacking in features, but I definitely feel very out of place whenever I need to do anything. The features might be there, but either the UX is bad or I'm not used to it.

I've used GIMP way more often than Photoshop for the past two years, and I definitely don't feel any more at ease. The transform tool, for example, I always find unintuitive and hard, and everything else is more or less the same. It's a pity.

Congratulations, your "review" is now apparently on the game's landing page. I'm sure it will drive up conversion like nothing else.
That is rather a 2-week plan, most people can't take it in isolation for much longer. I agree some mass events/mass transport should be rationalized, either greatly decrease density of people and maintain distances, or cancel them.
Such as? The only example I can think of where this works is trade unions, who have a rather limited mandate.
Linux works great for a variety of computer applications, what you mention and others. It has problems on a variety of others but often can be made to work for many of those. Windows also has problems with quite a few applications but also can be made to work for them.

Windows has costs in terms of security and control. But to the end user, Windows is "free as in beer", even more than Linux, since it comes just sitting on your new machine and you only have to sign away vague "rights" to use it. So it's no surprise Windows wins.
This is specifically for “goods and services” transactions, which can come with additional protections through PayPal if the seller never delivers or otherwise tried to defraud you.

You can also just send the money to their bank account if you really wanted to, but nobody actually likes doing that when you can use the protections (however imperfect) these services provide.
First, thank you for sharing your perspective, which I find valuable and fully agree with.

Second, thank you for putting in the time and effort to write a detailed response that directly addresses the point, as well as sharing your personal experience.

Third, I'm so glad you finally got help, and no longer need to live your life in the hard/nightmare mode.

Fourth, I really wish everyone here read your comment, because it illuminates both why there many undiagnosed adults out there, and why getting the diagnosis (and getting over the stigma) is so hard.

And finally, it seems like writing comments of this type (much longer then average, very detailed, huge in scope, with every claim backed by either reference, personal experience, or both) is a neurodivergent trait. I feel like ADHD in particular makes one used to fact-checking themselves (because memory is unreliable), and presenting information with context that illustrates why you do know what you think you know (leading with personal experience) — since that's the way you'd want it yourself.

Happy to see comments like this on HackerNews!
This change gives me new respect for Denis Ritchie's decision not to mess with a wart in operator precedence in C. Even though we still live with this wart 30 years later. It was exactly this type of failure he sought to prevent.

He refused to fix it because, "After all, we had several hundred kilobytes of source code, and maybe 3 installations...."

https://www.lysator.liu.se/c/dmr-on-or.html
He wasn't innocent, I thought my comment made that clear by saying they were paid by him and saying he definitely participated in the failed cover-up that led to his impeachment. He just didn't order the break in. Historical accuracy, not a deflection of guilt.
> According to the sources, users would need to disable E-cores

I don't know the specificis of these CPUs, but it seems likely that _a sane design_ could allow heterogeneous CPU features within a single machine.

For example, let's assume two CPU feature sets, E and P. E is a proper subset of P. Further, an E core will issue an "illegal instruction" exception when it encounters an instruction that is undefined on E and _may be_ defined on P.

Now the OS becomes free to do what it needs to do: Run a program on whatever core, E or P; but if it gets an "illegal instruction" on an E core, check the instruction; if it would be valid on the P core, mark the program (or thread or whatever) as runnable on P-cores only.

It wouldn't all work optimally on day one, but it's hardly clear that it's impossible to make it workable. There are other 'niceties' you'd want, such as the ability for applications to query the 'biggest set' and 'smallest set' of CPU feature flags.

Would it be worth the work? I'd have to classify that an open question.

> This raises an interesting question - can a new technology ride the hype-train sufficiently long enough to become mainstream and benefit from network effects and ecosystem dynamics kicking in, even if in its best case scenario - it's only a replacement of status quo and not necessarily an improvement? Historically, any widely adopted technological innovation has had the burden to offer and prove incremental value to society to justify paying the transition costs. But here, the incremental value is being pitched as literal "money" to be made by getting in early - which can be hard to resist for your average joe - notwithstanding their passion or stance on the underlying technology.

If the product is self-enrichment, not technology, then when the “technology customer” — who has, invariably, invested money — starts losing money during a bear market, the vendor has a de facto failed core product on their hands in addition to a ruinous reputation from their prior unscrupulous peddling of a technological dud.

So that’s 20% capital gains as it’s probably going to be long term capital gains. There is no 1031 exchange taxes deferred.

With the caveat that the here string causes a tempfile to be written¹, so they're not quite equivalent. How much that matters for your use cases though is a different question, but it is worth thinking about if you're doing lots of repeated calls.

¹ With Bash v5 it may use a pipe if the data is small enough, but you can't guarantee people will have that because of GPLv3 phobia. I believe it is always a tempfile with zsh.
There are many projects to do that, such as this one started in 2010 by the founder of the Software Freedom Foundation (sibling rival of FSF?):

https://freedombox.org/about/

My memory is that it's basically a wall plug like a router, but it can run apps for you locally.

Unfortunately my sense is that there's no much incentive to donate or contribute to such projects :-( So people don't even know they exist.
Stripe also bears some responsibility here, as they don't support production testing, so it's impossible to have a test suite checking for charge related behaviors in production.

> 3. This will kill any flexibility of doing small work and only becoming regularized once it's worth it. If you made $800 of freelance work, is that really worth the headaches of reporting it? Might as well not do the work and avoid the paperwork involved with that.

You’ve always had to report freelance work, even before this policy.

It’s not that difficult at all. Any of the tax prep software out there will walk you through it.

It’s trivially easy to report small jobs. $800 would definitely be worth keeping the documentation and typing a few numbers into the tax software at the end of the year.
Any suggested resources for doing this besides the nx docs?
To me, the STL is specifically Stepanov's idea for how to do generic programming in C++ in the early 1990s, and so it makes sense to distinguish the STL from unrelated stuff that happens to be in the C++ Standard Library.

For example iostream isn't part of Stepanov's idea, Stroustrup created that bundle of craziness in the 1980s and today it's part of the Standard Library, but it was not part of STL which only came into existence in the 1990s (although Stepanov's ideas about generic programming are older).
Sure but these aren't crazy complicated beasts - a binary installation and some unix experience gets you 90% of the way there! I don't think they'll get far more complex in the next few years at least, and documentation/user support is really good
Stripe charges the same for reminds as regular charges, so approximately 3%.
This is like a less contributor-hostile alternative to your typical CLA: instead of being used to allow proprietization of contributions by taking rights to contributions from contributors, the DCO serves only to ensure that your contribution doesn't carry legal risk.

If you read the contents of the DCO you will see exactly what it does.

And that they can't open the door chosen by the contestant! Also perhaps more subtly, that Monty picks at random when given the option. The original problem prompt is _highly_ underspecified (and makes assumptions that are counter-intuitive to how a game show host might behave).
The article mentioned that it was due to increased reporting. I agree that whole graph could be written off, but the same applies to instances when people point to some dramatic increase in recent disasters.
My GF, who is a realtor (and not what I'd call a power user), has been using Linux and LibreOffice for nearly a decade and it's been nothing but great.

Before, I'd have to go to her office at least a couple of times a month to deal with Windows issues (I don't recall what but I was there frequently).

Now? Never. Like twice a year I have to go help her.

I've been a Linux user primarily for 15 or 18 years and even made my own distro at one point (it was for fun and not that great). I'm not sure she would have had the same ease of use 15 years ago but now? Many Linux distros are very usable for non power users and much more stable and trouble free then Windows (which to be fair may have changed as well, I haven't used Windows in a long time).
Thanks a lot! Added.

When AIDS first came some politicians and public health zealots seriously proposed forcibly quarantining HIV carriers. That was actually a fairly mainstream position back in the 1980s, not something from the lunatic fringe. Fortunately we came to our collective senses and never imposed quarantines on any major scale.

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejmp1413425

The AIDS fatality rate at the time was virtually 100% (effective anti-viral medications weren't available yet). By contrast the CDC estimated the COVID-19 fatality rate at 0.6% since the start of the pandemic, and rapidly falling now due to vaccines and other improved treatments. A difference in fatality rate of over 2 orders of magnitude between the two diseases surely calls for dramatically different policy responses.

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-updates/burd...

One valuable lesson we did learn from the AIDS pandemic is that shaming people for making unhealthy choices is not an effective public health measure. It's better to focus on education and harm reduction.

My roommate sends me $700 via Venmo every month. I funnel it directly to the landlord in a direct deposit on the same day. It's frustrating to realize these transactions are going to be clearly reported as income, because I have never received income from Venmo - all I do with it is split bills. I realize I can probably sort this out with the IRS, but it seems relatively inappropriate that I would have to do that in this situation.
