> How can ISPs do anything close to this when they're not even concerned with how many devices you have?

Unfortunately that's not guaranteed to always be the case. The "Trusted Computer Group" already have ways for network operators to answer "Who and what’s on my network?"[0], and it's possible to set up an IPsec VPN between your device and the ISP where the key is only known to the TPM on your device.[1]

Of course the user could try to proxy requests from an "untrusted" machine to a "trusted" one, and piggyback the connection, but I imagine that applications which allow this won't be allowed in "secure" app stores, and "secure" operating systems would in any case firewall off packets coming from "untrusted" machines in the first place.

Alan Kennington wrote about the "asterisk method" to learning mathematics [0]. There is a line that I'm thinking about in particular when you mention the utility of paper and pencil over reading on screen (or solving problems in general): "Copying material by hand is important because this forces the ideas to go through the mind. The mind is on the path between the eyes and the hands. So when you copy something, it must go through your mind!"

Maybe there is something about owning a problem that is more personal when writing it down and working it out by hand versus reading it on a screen.

There isn’t even a draft specification for SSHv3 so anyone claiming to have a server/client implementation (closed source or otherwise) is playing fast and loose with the term to try to sell something.

Anecdotally I had the same response. I found they helped anxiety a lot, but did not help depression as I just felt even more disconnected and apathetic to things.

What helped me was switching away from a first-line SSRI and onto something a bit more niche: Mirtazapine. It's definitely worth trying a variety of SSRIs because everyone is different and it's really common for the first one or two that you try to not work well.

I agree that ultimately therapy/coping strategies are the right cure, medicine is a way to bootstrap otherwise incapable people into persuing exercise, therapy, social stuff etc. If you can achieve that without the help of meds, more power to you!

Thanks, I’ll have to check this out, especially as I’m trying to [find time to] learn Elixir.

With the PlutoSliderServer¹, you can have one Julia process serving a large number of independent, interactive Pluto notebooks (so, the opposite of live collaboration, but still may be interesting to you), with interaction limited to HTML input controls. This notebook², made to demonstrate the PlutoUI wrappers over HTML inputs, is served using the Slider Server.

I agree with your points in concept, but I feel it falls down on implementation.

Relying on a judge to apply rules based on their whim seems prone to failure. Judges are people with all the baggage they bring. There's a reason patent owners like East Texas.

Good Faith is also a nebulous measure. On the face of it Match has a reasonable good-faith argument to complain about Muzmatch in the same space. They may win, they may lose, but either way both sides are spending million(s) on this. By your logic Muzmatch would stand to lose a few million if they lose the case. That may be existential for them, and vacation budget for Match. And we're back to asymetary.

> If Discord were to disappear tomorrow, you'd would be well served to have a backup of some sort to avoid losing contact with everyone, IRC has the advantage of being relatively easy to setup independently with extremely low hardware requirements.

I don't see why you wouldn't need some sort of alternate contact info on IRC. There's no real identity system with IRC, so you'd need to validate people are who they say they are when they register their names with your new NickServ.
Not only that, but if meditation has taught me anything, it's that your "conscious rational thought" isn't really conscious. ...like, basically at all. The decisions are getting made unconsciously and then kicked up to your conscious attention, already made.
Yes, now you can dress however you like, paint your body and hair however you like... but God have mercy on your soul if you say or think (or did in the past 30 years) something Twitter doesn't like. I'm not sure it's actually an improvement, to think about it.
JustWatch is great.

There's a trend in my country (Italy) where old movies are being remastered in HD but not published on Blu-ray. Instead, they're only made available on one out of a half dozen or so streaming services. JustWatch helps me immensely to spot new releases like that!
> ...But I have issue with reading huge huge texts as you know in this case it will require too much time when I do this. Is there way to simplify this reading style?

I'd suggest you to start with figuring out why you need to face all that reading.

Is it to comply with some external requirement or is it motivated by your own need to find the knowledge?

Look at any printed material as some surrogate of a conversation. In fact most of books and papers are structured just for that. Abstracts are supposed to give an overview of context and touch on results. Conclusions are supposed to condense and underscore the findings. So reading papers is one way to learn how others solve(d) problems that may be similar to yours.

With books it may be harder to carve your pathway according to interest, as often the narrative may be progressive and assuming some degree of prior knowledge.

If you seem to blank on too many paragraphs and if you find it hard to paraphrase a passage, perhaps the material is too advanced for you at present. Mind that often papers do not show all intermediate details, simply mention them in passing or naming some stat package used. Well, take a note but treat that as some 'magic' box which turns to be some accepted practice. At the end the results should be summarized in plain language.
> Where someone lives is the biggest investment they can make. It cannot be collected by rich people, and even poor people invest where they spend their time

All of these arguments apply to citizenship too, even more strongly. I've lived the majority of a year on three different continents, but have never changed my citizenship. It's also not accurate to say that the rich are less able to take advantage of this: the fact that I was able to try these things out is precisely because I'm rich.

I don't think the newcomer/old-timer distinction mentioned upthread is especially useful, for the reasons you already outlined. But formal citizenship maps almost precisely to being invested in a place: it's a commitment that you identify with this society and its future, (mostly) to the exclusion of any other society.
As I explain[0] in response to a sibling comment, sadly it won't be enough (eventually) to have just one locked down device on your home network, they will all have to be individually locked down to access the internet.

Russia seems to point at things like this to create a silly narrative that their actions are actually America’s fault. Lots of people lap that kind of thing up in the west then excuse Russia for their crap. It’s amazingly effective.
>I heard that Gnome is dependent on systemd now.

Under some circumstances (not all), GNOME has a dependency on logind. If you're in one of those circumstances, you can use elogind as a drop-in replacement. That's far from having a dependency on systemd.

>Main purpose of both overengineered projects is to tie users to vendor's services (snapcraft, flathub, e.t.c.). Both package managers deprive me of control over my system.

I don't think snap lets you deploy your own repository, but for Flatpak this is very very wrong. Check here: https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/hosting-a-repository.html
I don't think it is common to find memorable quotes akin to “I have no idea what XFCE is or does, sorry.” outside of this circle. This is a vintage and often quoted Red Hat-ism that betrays their mentality.

QT developers will not tell you “I have no idea what LXQt is or does.”; they do not generally break things that compromise 90% of their consumer base and they do not remove theming because they fear it's existence will hurt the “brand identity” of KDE.

It's dishonest to say similar problems occur outside of the Red Hat circle and that circle alone is commonly criticized on these policies.

Even conceptually using Vulkan is much more complicated.

In old GL it's basically glClear, glBegin, glVertex, glVertex, glVertex, glEnd and a bit of window setup.

In Vulkan you need to know what these things are: queues, command buffers, image/geometry buffers, memory locations (constant, uniform, varying), resources, bindings, shader programs, fences, swap chains, and how they all coordinate together.

And until they are all properly coordinated together, you'll just be staring at a black image or just get errors.
I have never criticized most of these.

I have very specifically only criticized Red Hat developers. I have no problem with any of the others and they don't show the same problems.

No social security to speak of. Health care is excellent and reasonably priced, so not too big a deal. Set aside some savings and get some basic insurance / critical illness insurance. No pension either, so plan for your own retirement.

With what you save on taxes you can do that and take three months of awesome vacation a year anywhere you want and still save money over most countries.
> (1) This is better to me, because it makes notebooks more consistent and easier to jump into. I read english prose sequentially, why not code?

As a counterexample, some things are not important but have to be mentioned. In English, these things end up in the appendix. In Pluto notebooks, these things can be moved to the bottom.

Another benefit of less strict ordering is when debugging. Sometimes cell A fails because of cell B. It can be useful for debugging to temporarily put these cells next to each other
Total tangent but: Ignorance of the federal structure of the US is unbelievably rampant, especially at an intuitive level and even (or especially?) among educated parts of the population.

I recommend keeping an eye out for it whenever you're baffled by political discourse around a given topic. It's pretty fascinating how often it pops up and explains how two sides of a conversation can be speaking completely different languages.

Right. My question was more surprise that easy to read does not translate to beautiful in this case. Seems an odd juxtaposition.

Caveat, I like computer modern.
If I may apply a “computer Engineer’s way of thinking” to the renewable power storage problem, it looks like data and caching. Our ideal solution may be a tiered setup such as - renewable energy sources -> Supercapacitors(high throughput, low capacity) -> Lithium-ion (expensive, quick discharge, medium capacity) -> molten salt or hydro(pumping up water to be brought down later to generate electricity), or produce green hydrogen, or carbon-air battery. All of latter ones are high scale, high volume, lower efficiency, lower discharge speed solutions.

It is similar to how computers store the data needed by CPUs in processor cache, DRAM, SSDs, cheap hard drives, and cloud storage.
I second the suggestion. Never thought I would read a book so meta, but I did and it was worth it.
The student picks the PI, and as part of that, the field of methods they want to learn, which may include scrappy prototyping. If they don't think that kind of R&D is their thing, they should pick another PI and, potentially, field.

Ex: My wife's lab had paid staff, but she still had to feed cell cultures at 1am for the research she wanted to do, and later decided those methods were not for her and no longer does wetlab projects. That doesn't invalidate people still doing cell cultures as part of their methods, and I'd still love to see more robots & no-code & budget there to make it easier.

Edit: RE:products,

Whoosh. Academically derived products at that scale imply a community of practice and development: societal impact and dedicated makers growing it, including more knowledge. That should have the level of respect that a paper that opens up a small subfield gets. From a norms perspective, it's disappointing to see what sounds like a practicing academic to not value that. Separately, again, community of practice work values being embedded, so a student not enjoying it is their personal methods choice, not rules for others.
You don't truly own the domain though. You rent it. You have to continually pay to maintain control over it. It also wouldn't be hard for the registrar to claim you violated their ToS and revoke your access to the domain (or if they don't think they can get away with that, then they can say that they failed to process your payment when the domain renews and then snatch it up instantly themselves so you can't get it back).
Communist tactic is a bit ... weird .. of an association. Getting neighbors to snitch on each other is a technique every country's law enforcement uses. Or is the "See something, say something" announcement in the airport also communist? Is Texas' bounty on snitching on women who have medical procedures also communist?

Your comment would have been stronger if you didn't wave out the 1950s red scare tactics. Overall, it sounds like you were personally frustrated by the limitations - is that about what you wanted to say?
Author here. It's awesome to see my post on hn! Happy to answer questions.
I think it's worthwhile to read the Russian govt talking points -- and FWIW, that's writ plain in the thread: it's a naked presentation of Russian interests and viewpoints. It's hard to understand why people are motivated to engage in conflict, without hearing both sides talk about it. Either or both sides might be delusional, dishonest or both, but it's more information than silence. To that end, I'd like to see similar treatment of Kazakh motives... but that seems harder to come by (thanks, in large part, to government censorship, as I understand it)
Absolutely not. I am not the one making the claim that voting rights should be tied to taxation. I am not necessarily opposed to the NYC law either, I just disagree with the premise that we should evaluate things based on taxation as the comment I replied to suggested. That it was acceptable to give them voting rights because they paid taxes.

For federal elections I think citizenship is the proper test, or local elections I believe establishment of residency for a defined time would be more applicable qualification, tax payer status not withstanding. I do believe that residency should be a number of years greater than 1 and should apply to both citizens and non-citizens (i.e if you move from California to Florida you can not just start voting in the next local elections immediately even if you are a citizen as you have not established residency in the community)
Managers are incentivized to show pretty numbers about code reuse and platform feature parity to upper management, because that’s how they get their bonuses. Also webdevs are cheaper than mobile engineers. Upper management gets soaking wet from stuff like this.
If HN had a vote option that represented "I mostly agree with what you've written, but worry you're only saying it as half-garbled talking point designed to oppose something else that I support" it would get a lot of use from me.

I applaud your support of walkable cities with robust public transportation infrastructure.

I'm sad that it seems to mostly just be an echo of a decades long misinformation campaign against EVs rather than a positive and sincere suggestion to improve society.

The phrase "if we were rational and serious" is a red flag. Rarely has that come up in climate change discussions without a whole bunch of (ironically) irrational assumptions attached to it.

Oh if only those silly greens had been more rational! What amazing progress we could have made on this problem. Are we all supposed to pretend that lots of serious (acting) figures on the, let's say, non-green side didn't openly and blatantly lie about it not being a problem and all the solutions being cons long after everyone knew this was what they were doing?

If I was to come up with a list of things that were not rational or serious "pretend climate change is not happening" would come way before "let's stop using internal combustion engines in crowded cities because we have cheaper, better, quieter, healthier alternatives readily available".

Just? It's my understanding that each of those could have failed to deploy and if any of those would have, it were the end of the JWST. No way to repair or salvage. No 30% mission targets achieved or "underperforming" (as e.g. Hubble before the mirror correction, i.e. with approximated correction done in software on the ground). Nothing of value, just a flying, very expensive, brick.
Right! This is why I always chuckle when the HN thought-leaders always say "just do a chargeback" as if it's easy and guaranteed. I've rarely had success doing them.

> what all this effort is supposed to bring about

In the limit, all this effort brings about an artifact that could be thought of as a "magic" computer where:

- Everyone trusts that the computer operates to spec,

- Anyone (or any user interface) can type whatever they want into the terminal and press "enter",

- Anyone (or any other computer program) can read state out,

- The computer has immense amounts of storage and compute,

- Anyone who wants to change the computer's state in some way that cannot be achieved by using the terminal can freely make a copy of the computer with whatever changes they want, and encourage others to use their version instead.

What, one might wonder, would the use be? There are many, many potential uses — it almost boggles the mind — it's kind of like trying to imagine the uses of the internet when it was first invented.

To name one example: you could use this magic computer to operate a VR metaverse, instead of relying on a centralized Facebook one. Failing to do that would lock meaningful sections of our lives into a single vendor whose motivation is profit. Using the magic computer instead would mean that the metaverse would operate according to its predefined rules (which could leave plenty of space for human elections or other forms of collective decision-making), and that if things went awry anyone could try to set us back on track by making a modified copy of the machine and raising awareness about using it instead.

Just like regular computers, this magic computer could also have plenty of negative consequences. It depends on how people opt to use it. I think we'll probably have more luck adopting technology and trying to drive it in the right direction, though — the alternative is widespread Luddism, which might actually be a good idea, but I don't see a realistic path to achieving it.

A lot of folks who are very skeptical of web3 due to its dark sides are probably people who probably have great values and, if they adopted web3, could probably do a lot to improve its trajectory.
if i had to guess there are a few reasons they don't do this...

the first and most important reason is manufacturers have and will optimize for the main benefit of a product. the main product here is light. heat came as a negative byproduct of traditional incandescent lights and heat is something to minimize to lengthen the life of an led bulb.

another possibility is that if it were widespread it could cause some negative outcomes of people sitting too closely to a source of it and potentially exposing the companies to legal issues. not a lawyer and they might be able to shield themselves from that liability with well written disclaimers though.

Along with inertia from the incandescent bulbs not emitting that wavelength... the most likely reason is that they don't want to spend the money on researching how safe it is and how to cost effectively make them like that though.
