The argument over this always frustrates me. People argue about which pronunciation is correct, but for a made-up word, the creator is the only one who can decide what's correct. People are free to ignore the creator's wishes or do something different out of personal preference or disagree about what should be correct, but if the creator pronounced gif "Throatwobbler Mangrove" that'd still be the only thing that counts as "correct".
You are right. As for why, the incongruent cheering could be because people feel a little betrayed. Personally, I'm bummed that all news has bias and recycling is a sham.
I doubt it. More just that new of their death is so widespread so far compared to regular people that the cause of death is discovered after.
> There will never be enough debris that we can't fly through LEO.

Flying through and flying through safely are very different things. With tens of thousands of objects in and below LEO and (presumably) increasing flights to orbit, it's only a matter of time until a rocket gets taken down. It doesn't require a particularly large piece for an involuntary update to your deorbiting plans.
I wonder what would happen if private sector wage-based jobs were forbidden. If essentially your only option as an entrepreneur/company were to pay in equity/profit-sharing. The labor equivalent of, on the capital front, religions that forbid lending with interest but allow equity investing. I wonder if the complexity/transaction costs/uncertainty/governance problems would kill the economy or if it would be possible to somehow eventually get to an economy where everybody eventually thinks like a business owner. Here in Brazil, the labor laws are tricky and payroll taxes are high, so many people now work as contractors setting up small companies. That means they need to do a few things like get an accountant, a separate bank account for the business, pay business income tax (rather than have taxes deducted from their pay), but more often than not end up working full time for 1 client much like employees. I have been struck (anecdotally) how these hybrid employees/business owners seem to develop a more entrepreneurial mindset that can ultimately lead to more success. Maybe jobs do need a rethink.
It would be great, but will never happen because of the nature of modern reporting and PR.

Generally speaking, any communication coming out of a Federal agency has been run through exec, counsel, public information office, and security at a minimum. At the state and local level, that includes plastering the executive’s name in anything good. (ie “Governor Dingleberry announced today that the sun will rise in the east tommorrow.”)

Additionally, civil servants can only be punished for doing their jobs. There is literally no upside for the people who know what they are talking about to speak.

Honestly, Twitter in some ways has been a benefit. In the 90s, you had to take a leap of fate that a rando congressman was a lunatic, fascist, moron, etc. (ie. The guy is a dentist, how dumb could he be?) Now, like the proverbial vegans, they tell you.

This is not necessarily true, there are version ranges: https://www.baeldung.com/maven-dependency-latest-version

Admittedly, I don't think it has nearly as wide a usage as it has in the NPM world. Dependabot (I know I'm not the first to mention it, here, today) is probably more of a factor.

Still, it strikes me that this sort of "attack" (or mishap) is exceedingly rare in the Java ecosystem, while it's pretty common in the NPM world, and I don't immediately understand why that would be so.

Climate changes - period. The question is to what extent are the changes anthropogenic. The key to understanding the current climate movement is recognizing who is advocating what solutions and who benefits from the proposals. One quickly sees that it is a political movement. And once one allows themselves to be convinced that the root causes are anthropogenic, it becomes a new religion. That’s largely where we are today.
I have always considered it a social network, 'the social network for young programmers' as I called it, which turned free software into social networking (portfolio for first employment(s), etc.), and that's why I always refused to create an account over there as I don't want to push those things even further, and got gradually more appalled as I watched projects following the trend and moving there one after the other, making themselves more and more dependent of the tools conveniently provided by that silo, and cutting other ways to interact with them. Long before Microsoft entered the picture.
Yeah didn't see that on my phone at all. Glad to see it is here.
Whoever came up with this GC will save you from memory management headaches mantra deserves to be quartered. What is even worse is that thanks to a modern programming education however it is done most developers believe in this BS as well.

Sure GC will save one's ass in trivial cases, but few non-trivial become way more difficult to discover.
And basically every reply at the level of the GP was speculation. The post was a bit crass but certainly parallel to the others speculating about a cause of death.
In an ideal world, we wouldn't use logging to debug things after-the-fact. We would use traces, monitoring, and yes, events. But we don't always live in an ideal world, and logs are a simple and easy way to determine the sequence of events that happened after-the-fact, especially if there's something going on in a single application (which... happens to be a pretty big chunk of cases).

And at the end of the day, few things are more versatile than a big wall of text with timestamps and request ids attached. Saying that logging is a code smell is a little like saying all tech debt is bad.
If you don’t really trust the remote box, then storing a key on it – even one created solely for that box – might not be a good option. Doesn’t really matter whether the key is completely and permanently unencrypted or you only decrypt it during use.

To my understanding, by forwarding the SSH agent you can keep the private material on the local box only. I’d have to read up the details before I could be sure this is true, but that’s also what the linked article says:

> The [...] ssh-agent [...] supports [...] a way to forward access to private keys to remote hosts, without exposing the private keys themselves.

Creating a separate private key solely for this box – but storing it locally – is then a measure you can take additionally.
as far as I can tell, they’ve thrown a few parties, and they have a Discord.

That clearly comes from his role of Full House, his comedy has been the same (ever pre-Full House) to be pretty dirty, everyone knows him as America's Dad.
I think the author is on the cusp of the right idea but misses it with the new implementation — the only meaningful change is switching fixed strings interpolated with data to fixed classes parametrized with data. It’s not nothing, but it’s basically a funny way to do structured logging. Logging systems are already event streams with the ability for consumers modify, add supplementary data, and route output with strategies, formatters, etc etc.

What I would rather see is a new keyword that generalizes the concept of logging in it’s entirety — “emit $object.”

For discrete events it would be emit ThingHappened(), for logs it would be emit Log(), and for traces it would be emit OpenSpan() and emit CloseSpan(). You could collapse whole classes of libraries into a few emit calls and a single listener.
What worries me personally is that they are aware and simply don’t care. Our current climate catastrophe is a testament that big business can be completely aware of an impending disaster, but still ignore it while profits are showing.

That’s false. Speculation helps to communicate to those who don’t yet know, from life experience, that many “found unresponsive” deaths are actually OD/suicide/suicide-by-bender.

Regarding politics, information overflow, and general increase in lunacy.

To put it simply, it was expected the level of noise and sensation will rise after smartphones emerged. Loud lunacy seems to be a great way to catch public attention currently and this is well understood by both the media, politicians and vegabonds of wealth. Sensational journalism was always a problem, now add to that billions of people able to elevate the wildest stories, let alone create their own. If course we're drowning in digital noise and it isn't going to subside as long as it's effective.

But there's good news.

I cannot stress enough that it's entirely possible to control the level of exposure to said digital noise. You don't have to follow news, politics and social media intensely. You can just opt out. If you find yourself constantly angry on Twitter, fighting endlessly on Facebook, and cussing at the news, it's entirely by design. The only way to win this game is by not playing.
I think the news just gets out faster. Back in the day the news didn't break until the took the body away and did their initial investigation and at least had a suspected cause of death.

Now you have the Sherrif tweeting from the hotel room while staring at the just found body.
I’m… probably more uptight than most people about respectful humor. And while I wouldn’t say this is totally in the clear, and I don’t have full recall of the joke, it’s certainly one that could be delivered with respect. And at least to my mind it defaults to “punching up”, in this case the butt of the joke being foolish men who would draw that conclusion in the first place.

> The contestant chooses a door. If they choose right, they win. Otherwise the host effectively flips a coin and, with 50% probability, the game starts over. Otherwise the contestant loses.

That isn't what happening in the first simulation. The game doesn't end if the contestant chooses the prize door initially. The contestant simply chooses a door. The host randomly chooses between the remaining doors. If they reveal the prize, the game is restarted. If they reveal an empty door, then the game is logged as either "the original door was correct" or "the remaining door was correct". This is the definition of "the host chooses randomly".

> The host then peeks behind a door the door contestant didn’t choose (without showing anyone else what’s there) at random. If the prize isn’t there, the host reveals that there is no prize behind the door. Otherwise the host forgets they peeked and repeats the peek-and-choose step until they randomly get an empty door.

Picking random doors until an empty one is found absolutely the same thing as randomly choosing amongst the available doors that don't contain a prize. You can implement any function you like here. Either the host always opens a door that does not contain the prize, or the host has a 1/3 chance of revealing the prize and the game is restarted. There is simply no other possibility.

Though I'm not one to generally say this or that subreddit should be banned, reddit has destroyed many a thousand times less subversive ones than this in the past, like /r/whitebeautyart. So I don't see why this kind of nihilistic, apathetic, passive attitude should be encouraged.

Yes, something like this actually deserves to be removed, especially when it reaches critical mass. Because it does more harm than good to the extent that yeah american youth are just going to get dominated on a global field if most of our zoomer ADHD youth equate having a boss to slavery.

And it doesn't matter at all how few people may or may not participate in this particular subreddit. This is the third time I've seen a post about the subreddit in mainstream news. It's popular and the sentiments are only going to grow with more time and more encouragement, to our detriment.

I’ve realized the idea that the “Hacker” part of “Hacker News” is no longer here, and just a nod to some ancient, possibly apocryphal, past.

Discussions now are about how you shouldn’t run your own server, and you should use popular stuff so you can speed up development and get your startup going.

I mean, I know about ycombinator and all. But it doesn’t seem to truly encompass the hacker spirit, if you ask me.
Good point, I was being idealistic and imagining space as a perfect vacuum.

In Australia, it's $140 / month, plus the capex of $700 for the dish, which obviously won't work on any other provider. I suspect resale on that device, if the carrier allows it, would be reasonable, but I don't expect I'd be moving away from this service.

People are comparing (sub)urban US multi-carrier options, or heavily populated countries (like Italy), that have much cheaper pricing. It's not surprising that terrestrial services there are better spec'd and cheaper.

For me (in AU) it's compelling because I otherwise have an option of a 3G yagi / booster (nearest tower is 15km away, service is awful normally, but unusable in storms, frequently highly contended, etc), dial-up (there's very few places that still offer such a service, and just the landline connection fee is $40 / month to start with), or geo-stationary satellite (what I've just moved away from after 2+ years, which has > 600ms RTT to the nearest capital city, and a max downstream of 25Mbps, which is also frequently highly contended during peak times.

The 100W / hour usage is frustrating, and claims of electricity being 'just 10c / kWh' are quaint, I guess coming from well serviced parts of EU / US? Here most people are up for 30c (AUD) / kWh, and if on ToU that can go up to 60c during peak (2pm through 8pm). I've got solar, so on average I'm powering this 'for free' 25% of the time.
when my code is not working how i expect it to, i print a ton of equal signs, then the value on a knew line, then a new row of equal signs. never used loggin before.
Use a language where you don't need to pull in 100 dependencies to create a useful application/service.
Just personal opinion, no offense meant.

> I can't tell you my name is spelled K-Y-L-E and insist it is pronounced "Mark"

Not the same thing at all. This is more like someone following different pronunciation rules insisting that your name as spelled is pronounce "Kee-lay"; and if you actually want "Kaa-il", you should spell it K-A-I-L instead. It kind of makes sense that way too, as long as the rules are somewhat consistent in their version.

If the creator wanted to name it after Jif, the extension and name should have both been JIF. Putting in a G instead of a J is begging to create confusion about the pronunciation.
there are a number of rural areas in the USA that politically show very low likelihood of getting something like a proper last mile broadband service built by wireline infrastructure any time soon (fiber and GPON or active ethernet). some rural counties in eastern WA are the exception.

There is more science available, big data, ability to manufacture practically anything for not a lot of money, I love the fact I can hop online and read studies from a journal that published last week. Couldn't do that in the 90's.

Increasingly seeing a reversal or abandonment of medical theories as new studies offer new insights and present new theories.

So the trend up to WW1 was to use chemicals found in us to treat us, between WW1 and WW2, patented medicine started to appear and this is how big pharma developed. Problem is, in some cases, patented medicine is too alien to the human body, its not evolved enough and so it presents new challenges or problems, depending on your POV.

I'm not saying its perfect today, but the explosion in knowledge over the last 30years has been close to exponential, roughly inline with the silicon chip.
The original devs are aware, and have unofficially suggested they'd be willing to help[0].

<< In time I think these societal and religious pressures will be seen as negatives if the mother is outside of those conformist pressures, which will further weaken the conformist grip on society.

I don't see that happening. For example, circumcision has been normalized ( in US at least ) so there is not even a need for a real pressure. And this is just one of the more interesting examples of religious dogma pervading life of non-religious individuals.

Does having the ability to compile and build it yourself allay any of those concerns?

It means you no longer need to trust the infrastructure or machines being used to create the images, just the developer through their source code which, yes, while it's a daunting task to review, it's "just" a fork of AOSP.

I've been building a modified LineageOS for a while, and these posts always have me circle back around and question if I should just go back to stock, Graphene or Calyx.

I wasn’t particularly fond of Saget, but I know that Norm Macdonald (a man I did deeply respect) held him in the highest regard and thus I have this sort of laundered respect for him. Isn’t it curious when you don’t look up to a man “directly”, but find admiration for him through someone who you do admire?

Edit/addendum: I suppose it is kind of like when you’re parent loves a certain musician, movie, comic, etc. You may not find them too entertaining, but you always tip your hat to them due to your parent’s respect.

Depends how you're speculative. From the guidelines:

"Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.

Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive."
And if all of that makes it sound banal: it is, and it isn’t. It’s very predictable humor you could imagine coming from a “how to reboot squeaky clean image as surprisingly dirty and dark”, and it’s also very well delivered and more thoughtful than you might expect.
