I taught myself Smalltalk in 1988 coming from Modula-2.

It's simply anachronistic to judge Smalltalk implementations of that past decade against version control of this decade, when there have been newer Smalltalk implementations with version control.

Even back in 1983 the blue book discussed "Storing the set of Changes on a File" (page 465) and "Commands that check for conflicts" ( http://rmod-files.lille.inria.fr/FreeBooks/TheInteractivePro... page 472).

"Whether your development team consists of one person, or many: Do understand and use the change manager. The change manager is one of the most important tools for software development in the Smalltalk-80 environment. … It allows you to selectively browse [changes], remove [changes] incorporate them into another version of the system, check for conflicts, and prepare the changes for release to other members of the development team or to end users." (page 500 "Smalltalk-80 Software Development Do's and Dont's")

> Your image persists your data and changes forever—including any mistakes you make…

Even back in 1988, source code changes made with the Smalltalk IDE were automatically logged to a text file (the change log) and we could choose which of the logged source code changes to apply later to an unchanged image file.

So no, mistakes were not forever.

I had ten years prepaid premium on LastPass, being an early adopter (it was a good product and a good price at the time).

After they were acquired, LogMeIn was quite happy to charge my credit card for the premium service, for several years running. Never did get a refund.
What happened in this article reinforces my belief that devices marketed as "general purpose" devices _must_ allow users to, in some way, run their own software on them "unrestricted" (standard sandboxing of course, mostly the same rules as App Store apps, just none of the application class rules or arbitrary API access restrictions).

In the case of ChromeOS they do allow you to install Linux which satisfies this on paper (and to me, but perhaps not everyone?), however the iPad does not allow this in any way (the App Store, as pointed out by the author, explicitly disallows browsers), and I think there needs to be regulations on makers of devices that are classed as "general purpose computing devices".
Technology advances so fast though. Imagine a desktop from 20 years ago. We’ll be ready for an upgrade long before it runs out of fuel.
Indeed it does. These are mostly queries for non-computer stuff, like I'm interested what's difference between various variants of pepper sprays, or merits of oil vs oil-less air compressor, etc. All the queries I can think of that would have Wikipedia page at the top in the english version give me only eshops and blogspam from sellers in my local language.
I'm not the person you asked, but I can say that at the time I started using github I had never used ssh.
I think most high school (USA) biology courses probably touch on the concept of viruses? This level of detail was certainly taught in high school Advanced Placement (AP) Biology when I took it many years ago.

To me the article seems a lot more focused on specific, concrete issues faced by some workers, and tangible actions and policies to address them.

It isn't making a moral case for or against hard work that I can see. Though I do think addressing the conflation of productivity with virtue is necessary to make meaningful change here.

Anyway yeah YMMV. I don't really get anything from my work except more money and less time so I'm gonna vary that mileage down as much as I can. I can't really follow you into the media and political scope of this though. I don't reject those values that you associate with... someone associating with... right-wing... something. idk man. This isn't a request for further explanation.

Heaven's Vault is a good one. It's a very indie point-and-click type adventure game with really nice storybook-style visuals and music. You play as an interstellar archaeologist exploring ruins and piece-by-piece deciphering an ancient pictographic language for clues and lore, so as you progress through the game you basically learn this constructed language. I'd recommend it to anyone interested in linguistics/writing systems/Unicode nerds.
I was removed from a team account, after that I could no longer access my account until the company reinstated me temporarily. Very weird behavior because it was a private account first..

The multi-party maximal-entanglement definition used in the paper is "no matter how you cut it into two pieces, the two pieces are maximally entangled". Monogamy isn't an obstacle because the definition is always using two pieces.

A 3-qubit state with this property is the |000> + |111> state. But |0000> + |1111> doesn't work as a 4-qubit state because when you cut it into evenly sized pieces you should be able to distill 2 bell pairs instead of 1.

There are plenty of browser alternatives still compatible with iOS12 and 8-year old iPad hardware.

I have no idea how this myth has become so entrenched on HN.
Being able to use a tool isn't the same as being able to transform a tool into a totally different type of tool. Someone shouldn't have to learn how to install and use linux just to use their 2014 laptop to browse the internet.
Listen to some in depth interviews with him on technical subjects. He’s a jerk, but certainly not an idiot.
Brave is a small company. It certainly doesn't have the resources like Chrome does. Give it time.
Personally, when it's so recent (like within last year or three) I don't really care if the title is missing the year on HN. It becomes more useful when it's clearly a dated (i.e. maybe incorrect or no longer relevant) article.

It is the idea that certain beliefs are outside the Overton Window [1] of acceptable political discourse, but you want to signal your endorsement of that belief to your supporters without saying it outright, to preserve plausible deniability.

For smaller groups, where everyone is engaged in the conversation, on. Then we can see head nods and such things. For larger groups, off. For any calls with senior leadership, off - they just recite powerpoint presentations at us anyway.
Came here to say the same thing. Been using Keepass for years without any issue and won't switch. I started it using quite a while ago after someone on here recommended it and haven't looked back since.
Doesn't seem to work. We've switched to the NASA post now.
Always ON.
Off only for large meetings where I'm only listening.

I too am disappointed at the amount of "off" responses.
Three.js should load and run as long as its usage of window, document, etc works as it expects. So the plan is to have a small loader that prepares the environment that Three.js expects before loading it.

This has already been done for Processing/p5.js:

https://windowjs.org/about/processing

After the initial load, all of the p5.js APIs make CanvasRendering2DContext calls, which Window.js implements natively.

Almost all of the p5.js examples work with this approach, except those that use DOM elements like buttons and sliders. Those elements could also be faked, with some patience :-)

I think it's pretty cool that p5.js scripts can run on a desktop window this way, outside of the browser!

As an aside, I also originally intended to implement an HTML renderer on something like Window.js, and make a "browser from scratch" based on it. Maybe for another day...

Not, there isn't, because no one else is allowed to make a browser for iOS. Any other "browser" on there is just a reskin of the built-in Safari.

I have 2 more datapoints. My wife went with me to the testing on the same date. If you're negative on rapid test, they usually take PCR as well. Since she was negative on the first one, there was a PCR too. These are her QR urls:

Rapid test:

https://pcr.euprava.gov.rs/validate.php?cqcode=16415703349MJ...

Timestamp: 1641570334, time: GMT: Friday, 7. January 2022. 15:45:34

PCR:

https://pcr.euprava.gov.rs/validate.php?cqcode=1641924832NyL...

Timestamp: 1641924832, time: GMT: Tuesday, 11. January 2022. 18:13:52

I downloaded PCR from portal today, that's why it has today's timestamp.

What's interesting is that her test IDs are 7601574 and 7631146 while they were taken within 15 minutes from each other. There's some 30k difference, and I think Serbia runs around 40k tests a day. PCR samples are sent to central lab and processed later, that would explain why PCR's ID is much higher.

However I don't think we have definite proof of how these test IDs are generated. Different labs could be assigned batches of IDs, PCR tests itself could have preassigned IDs (you can see they have same ID when you're tested, but I'm not sure it's the same ID as presented in results). If test ID is generated when results are inserted into database, then they should always be incremental and Novak's test IDs point to forgery. But there could be other explanations.

My conclusions:

- timestamps are not proof of forgery

- test IDs are suspicious, but we can't be sure.

...That is factually incorrect. In fact, conviction for a crime is the only Constitutionally valid circumstance under which one can be enslaved in the United States.

So there is, in fact, involuntary forced labor in the United States. It does also cause issues, as prison conscripted labor can undercut any semblance of normal rates for menial/unskilled labor.

That being said, the previous posters advising this does not negate the enormity of Chinese misconduct, or one's calling it out with similar domestic issues is not an effective or valid form of rhetorical dismissal. The drunk, as it were, is still right to call you out to hand over your keys after a few too many drinks.

> iOS also doesn't allow the browser to be updated after the hardware has reached end-of-support.

Just simply not true. Plenty of browsers are still updated for iOS12 and 8-year old hardware like the 2013 iPad Air (which I still use every day)

Edit: getting downvoted - while writing this post on iCab Mobile browser which was updated less than a month ago...

Follow-up: Well I tested the language ‘feature’ in this browser - and though it didn’t crash, it didn’t run the function either.
I’d forgotten what a sh*tshow of crappy and unnecessary garbage modern front end JavaScript development was.
"Accelerando" is an awesome name, and it came on the scene just as the "exponential pace!" thing was going on in the zeitgeist.

short term meaning what, 50 years until the large group of oldies die?
But was there ever an objective basis?

People certainly behave in ways that reflects there is an objective basis to be reached - they argue about correctness of perspectives, attempt to reduce complex formulas to the simple, have entire reasoning + discovery systems (science) designed to reach the truth, etc.

I have yet to meet someone who truly dogfoods their own supposed beliefs on a "relative morality". You'll often find those people claiming all truth is relative, but are equally willing to argue ad-infinitum on whether they think you're right or wrong on a certain topic.

I had a somewhat similar setup to you with Notion and Notability. I tried Clover and at first it didn’t stick but I gave it another shot and eventually transitioned over entirely.

The only thing I miss from my previous setup is the syncing of audio to notes from Notability, but it’s a worthy sacrifice to have a simpler all-in-one workflow.
Pence is the usual plural for an amount of money, although it's often replaced with "p" ("pee") when speaking informally.

Pennies means 1p coins, sometimes 2p coins too:

"Mum, I need sixty pence for the train, I've only got pennies and the machine doesn't take them."

"Pennies" without an amount means a small amount of money. "It's only pennies with the amount we use it."

(JK Rowling missed a trick. It should have been one bronze knut, two bronze knuts, and a price of four knets or something.)
> When LastPass was acquired

Maybe, if someone acquires 1Password?
In the absence of internet connection yea SMS is still useful but it has nowhere near the quality of UX and features of mobile messaging apps. It is just communication protocol after all.
Not really, you can only do that for 7 days at a time, unless each device owner pays $99 yearly, and even then there's no simple and obvious way to do it.
I can say with full confidence that this at least has nothing to do with their hostage situation:

> Having no formal support channel

When I last had to deal with their so-called support, all contact details were very efficiently hidden. Once you found a page with a phone number, and the hours you could call them, there was one final surprise:

"The phone number you are trying to reach is not in use". The only contact that works reliably at LastPass is their billing department. Make of that what you will.

Which reminds me to ask - is anyone making a custom OS for iDevices yet? Something like Graphene for iOS? I know about Asahi Linux, but that's for M1 laptops, AFAIK. (Because the "right" solution here is clearly to ditch the OS and install something Linux-y, and then whatever software you need, including recent Chrome).

Same question for ChromeOS devices.
Last time I checked (a couple years ago), the only seemingly trustworthy password managers were 1Password and pass. Has this changed?
Nitpick. Dopamine doesn't signal a reward, and it isn't a reward in itself. In this context, the important function of dopamine is that it signals a reward prediction error.
I use iCloud Keychain because Apple is not in business of making money off a password manager. They charge me more via their hardware sales scheme but at the end of the day it’s a good experience overall
We have a sony SRS-88 wireless home speaker. It's solid. But you can connect all sorts of ways. Airplay worked for a month, now it always sputters. My partner's Spotify seems to start and then send the stream straight to the device, so you can't control it from the original device anymore.

We've found the best way is straight bluetooth, or through the mini stereo plug that we have wired to the back.

should have been more specific. I am not a stranger to cult indoctrination. Plus I grew up with these people in the same house. So I actually know where she is coming from and to some extent what it's like to be indoctrinated (I had a bried stint with scientology 30 years ago). It's fully possible to be empathetic for someone's worldview and still know that they are completely wrong. I'm not sure how that's not feasible.
Senescent cells are an interesting phenomenon. They definitely seem to be involved in aging (as in "worsening of health"), but they are also found in healing wounds [0], so there is suspicion that some of them may be useful. The question is which ones and in what quantity.

On the other hand, you don’t need a massive, expensive structure to keep the mirror from deforming under gravity, everything is already vacuum insulated for you, humidity isn’t a problem, you get 24/7 energy from the Sun using just solar panels (no diesel generators), you don’t have concerns for building on sacred land, you have like 3-4 times the observing time per day (which directly impacts cost per observing hour), independent of weather, access to both hemispheres, and no (or much less) need for expensive adaptive optics and laser systems to partially correct for the atmosphere.
Ditto. Keepass + drive sync and I have zero issues and feel like it's a pretty secure system.
LOL, you must have very little knowledge about how this stuff works. Try it yourself, Ctrl-U (on most browsers) should bring up PUBLIC HTML source code. It's not hacking, and people use this all the time for debugging.

So which part of the JavaScript changes needs new hardware?
I like using the term "software-defined garbage" for this scenario: the hardware is fine, but software sends it to the landfill.

One solution is to only buy hardware that's capable of running a generic Linux distro after the manufacturer abandons it.
The last time I checked, Bitwarden would fill a password into an iframe even if the iframe is for a different domain than the parent. This came up in one of their security audits and changing it was argued against.

This has security implications and what cautioned me against it.

Other password managers don't do this and look at iframe domains before filling them in.

Am I missing something?
I get it.

It's just a fine line between arguing what would justify FDA "approval" vs what merits have changed that actually increase the risk-versus-reward assessment.

Put another way, when the biggest excuse for not getting vaccinated was "it's experimental and not approved", it became a straw-man-esque "gotcha-trap" of a battle to achieve "approval", even though that approval process looked nothing like any before it (no matter how many times "full fda approval" is repeated).

When the metric becomes the goal, it's no longer a metric, and all that.

We get bogged down arguing whether criteria of a definition or standard are being met, while the regulators end up just redefining things.

And we're supposed to pretend the teacher applying a curved grading scale actually represents a difference in the students performance.
