>I want to know what you would call this unsolicited, non-transactional commercial email.

Commercial email, differentiated from spam in that you have a commercial relationship with Amazon that you initiated and agreed to (i.e. solicited), and as such, they are allowed to market to you until such time as you ask them to stop.

I can see my opinion on this matter isn't a common one on HN.

I would suggest that the ability to consider ideological standpoints with a detached interest is usually the sign that you are not personally on the hook about it. Of course, it is probably nice for someone to never find themselves on the hook, but at the same time, this kind of luxury is not available for everyone. For instance, someone having trouble paying the rent may resent wintertime evictions more personally than a homeowner. Likewise, a blue-collar worker may have a more personal position about globalization about than a software engineer.

I'm not sure we should view this luxury as a superior attitude.
There are homeless people in every state, but they aren't stealing off trains, are they?

Also, I guarantee you that if property crime enforcement increased and there were more arrests, they would scram.
My solution to email spam is a second Gmail account. I use this email to sign up for everything, and it forwards to my main account, but all those emails get auto-archived on receipt. That way if I need a password link or something it’s as easy as checking my “All Mail” folder but I never see any of the spam.
I was trying this a few weeks ago on a brand new Windows 10 install

I turn off the "realtime protection" in GPO/options... it's still there

I try killing "Antimalware Service Executable" (Msmpeng.exe), in taskmanager or try disable the service in the service control panel: Access Denied

I reboot into safe mode, disable the service, reboot and it's gone

.. but reboot again and it's back

I had to DELETE the service in safe mode and change the permissions on the executable so it couldn't be accessed/modified by anything

Isn't Lenovo the problem? CPU vendors have to implement a secure enclave somehow to fulfill requirements from the content industry for quite some time now. But there never was a nefarious actor like Lenovo in this case to my knowledge.

I understand from this case that my reasonable course of action is to inform my (non-IT-focused) peers and friends that they should avoid Lenovo by explaining the reason behind it (your device is worth less, since you won't be able to install linux or a Mac Clone!) to them.

Given the massive and disproportionate police response in DC to the protests over the summer, I find it extremely puzzling how you could conclude anyone would see that very large response as a green light for a protest, let alone storming the Capitol.
I'm a security researcher. PSB as described there is orthogonal to the specific policy of tying the board to a specific CPU key, as you can tell from per CPU keys not being in the hardware root of trust as described by cloudflare. In fact you can swap the CPUs across boards from different ODMs in your most recent citation, since the root is an AMD key that then verifies the off chip ODM cert in flash.

I stand by my orignal statements.

Investor Jarrod Dicker on how “the emergence of NFTs has brought provable digit
I’ve tried it. It’s very neat. I wrote a PoC music player on it and it boots up and begins playing music in about 4 seconds if I recall. Has a neat optional web-based service control UI that lets you see the logs and stop/start the “services.” Has a cool dual-boot-image scheme so you can boot a new one and roll back to the old one if needed (takes double the space on the boot drive but it’s still pretty small).

It’s still kind of a toy, however. There is no C runtime, and the maintainer has declared that there never will be (part of the point of the project is not worrying about that kind of complexity) so including anything C-based is going to be an adventure/unsupported. And the maintainer’s use case is custom built personal servers, so he is explicitly ok with, for example, having to hardcode your wireless config because there is no (and apparently never will be) a wpa_supplicant.

But if it had a golang wpa_supplicant implementation and a graphics library (I’ve done a little fb drawing on it and it works but it really needs acceleration) it would make a really nifty platform for little devices with an HDMI UI.
Leetcoding is certainly a big one. Having to jump through performative interview hoops is a tough pill to swallow for experienced folks. Took me many years to put my feelings aside and recognize it as the current normal.

Otherwise, plenty of reasons, many dependent on specific companies. Some examples based on both first-hand knowledge and hearing from others:

Facebook/Meta - tough performance culture, bad work-life balance, terrible public image

Amazon - toxic exploitative culture, bad work-life balance, sliding public image

Apple - secretive culture, bad work-life balance

Netflix - unique performance-oriented culture that won't fit everyone (see the infamous culture deck)... but interviews are team-specific and not necessarily Leetcode-oriented

Google - growth is difficult, sliding public image

Keep in mind that these are aggregate impressions based on many anecdotes. Some teams will not exhibit the same issues. Some people are also not bothered by the same issues you might be (and vice versa).

I was using a Logitech mouse of this size for a long time and ended up with a lot of wrist pain. Went away once I switched to a larger mouse like M725 and MX Master 3.

One needs only google "income inequality chart usa" and look at images to see that the present trends are not going to result in anything good in the long run. What we'll end up with is something like wealthy parts of mexico where the richest 1-2% live in fortified enclaves protected by private armed security, and the poor are desperately poor. Not unlike the rich burbclaves predicted in Snow Crash, actually.
An issue with the present system is that the status quo is virtually immutable. How cities can tax is rigidly constrained by state laws. Attempts to change those laws run into every possible obstacle, especially if it's perceived that someone is getting more goodies, and someone else less. Often, divided along urban / rural lines.

Now, it's not entirely rigid. In my state, each city sets its budget, then your tax bill is simply the budget weighted by the value of your property. Some kinds of extra expenditures such as bond issues can be approved through referendum. Others can be tacked onto the homeowners whose goodies are getting fixed, through special assessments. When the street in front of my house was rebuilt, I got a bill from the city for X amount based on Y feet of frontage.

It's a tiny bit complex because you also live in a county which is doing the same thing.

But the fundamental of assessing real estate and using it as the foundation of your tax bill is practically carved into stone. And it does have the advantage of being relatively straightforward to compute. In a town with a relatively brisk market, your assessment is going to be pretty close to what you paid for the house plus an inflation factor based on your neighborhood. And you know that your neighbor isn't somehow wriggling out of their tax obligation. That's overlooking the exceptions of course, but it captures the gist of it.
Curious why people are downvoting this. Do you really think the people stealing these goods prefer to be doing this compared to other options available to you and me?
The point is why there’s resistance to dense urban living. You seem intent on having a different argument entirely. It’s ok, no one’s saying people of color are supposed to inherently dislike the suburbs.

That some hipsters have found renewed value in density (mainly access to “culture”) is a separate, parallel development.
Well it is true that weirdness is more of a mental illness over time. The more society becomes rigid and codified and dense, the less room for weirdness to exist, as there are more ways to be transgressive and more people to transgress against.
The USA has death penalty and the highest rate of incarceration in the world. It's it the safest, thou?
The sad part of this situation is the initial people that broke into the containers on the trains are long gone with their loot, now the marginalized people are getting caught digging through the discarded items that were not valuable enough for ones that broke in and most likely they will be the ones prosecuted for political gains even if they get out on no cash bail.

What needs to happen in these cities is some auditing of the second hand sellers. Pawn shops are required by law to record all items that they purchase but many of the people advertising and selling online are moving larger volumes of product with zero accountability.

The Kijiji and Craigslist type sites have mostly been allowed to operate in a gray area but there is no doubt they are facilitating the buying and selling of stolen items and as such a percentage of their profit is actually subject to seizure through proceeds of crime legislation.
You are absolutely correct and I was mistaken, it's not a law.

I believe my point still holds as it's more concerned about the system being implemented. You could substitute the word 'law' with 'system', and my meaning and intent is completely unchanged.

Regarding the record keeping argument as being a benefit. I agree there is some value there if there was no existing record to keep track of numbers of exemptions.

Without having more information about the current recording system I'm not able to say whether there is a need to distinguish the types of exemptions being offered, and why religious exemption needed to be focussed on in particular.
> I think Chrome/Blink should be spun out as a separate entity

Dear god, no, please.

The Chrome team is a treasure of immense value to the world. They are the only major software team in the world where my bug reports have been triaged and fixed. Again and again and again, and usually very quickly too. Ocassionally I would find some hellish obscure corner case of a bug, ignore it, and it would still get fixed even without my reporting it: the team is just unbelievably effective! I wished Google were not selling advertising, but the downsides for Chrome have been fairly limited. The fact that they have given the source code to Chromium away for free is just plain astonishing. I am blown away by how good Google has been as a custodian of something that is used by so many in the world: it has been a fair gift to us all with surprisingly few caveats.

If you don’t like Google’s guardianship then use a derivative browser, even Microsoft Edge!

Split off Chromium and it would likely turn to shit. How many times have I seen browser vendors go down the path of evil? How many times have I seen important software get sold, and the product focus shift to something execrable?

On browsers: the Safari team is a black hole for bug reports, with a browser full of broken or non-compliant functionality… IndexedDB is just one of many similar symptoms. Firefox has the right social goals, but it hasn’t been delivering guru level engineering, but instead Firefox is continually chasing useless queer features (similar to many other now dead products in the world). The Microsoft Edge team did fix one bug report for me once, but I just happened to report it while they were developing the feature, and I had test cases showing the feature working in Firefox and Chrome. I still have trauma from Microsoft IE6+ (although it was a competitive edge for my business that I could usually make it work, albeit at the cost of years of my life devoted to creating IE workarounds).

To be clear: I individually lean heavily towards the "nobody gets a religious exemption" side of things.

But no, I don't think there's a reasonable normative connection there. The federal government has (historically) largely delegated vaccination policies and their enforcement to the states, which in turn largely recognize their own right to perform "legitimacy" or "good faith" tests for religious exemptions.

The rules for those tests vary widely by state, but among the more common ones are (1) evidence that the individual's views are shared by their broader faith and not a product of individual exegesis, (2) evidence that the individual's request is long-standing (i.e., not merely a product of political winds), and (3) evidence that the individual doesn't belong to a religion expressly for the purpose of acquiring an exemption. None of that seems particularly unreasonable on face value to me, nor is it threatened by or threatening to the US's otherwise extremely strong religious protections.

My favourite part of Task Manager lore are nearly undocumented keyboard shortcuts:
- pause updates by holding CTRL pressed,
- hit F5 for refresh (standard binding, isn't it?), or hold F5 to get refreshes way more frequent than with View > Update Speed > High.

They might have been visible in menu mnemonics in past versions (?), or might have been mentioned in the help, but now, while still working, there is no clear way to learn them from current Windows 10 Task manager graphical interface. (Even the Help menu item is gone.)
I agree there is room for improvement, however intelligence appears to largely genetic. Studies put it at 40-80%, I’m of the view that it’s at the high end of that. If the mechanism was better understood then it may be possible to induce higher intelligence even in those who don’t have the genetic predisposition.

No, you witnessed a tiny portion of the protests.

I personally know of business owners whose businesses were looted, literally just local store owners.
In a way, if you only consider the C preprocessor as part of the C compilation pipeline (rather than as a separate tool), there are at least similarities.

No it isn't. Cost of living matters.

Impoverished people in richer countries have, to a limited extent, some advantage from increased capital investment in their vicinity (e.g. in theory, on average, better local infrastructure than in absolutely poorer countries). They are still crushed by living expenses.

Sorry, but I was on reddit atleast since 2008 and it was obvious even then that 80%+ of the redditors hadn't read the articles, the whole reason they were on reddit was to chat to other redditors, not to actually read the article.

I find that the problems you mention are primarily a problem when you offer free accounts and monetize via some other (and typically malicious) way such as the usual "growth and engagement".

If accounts or services are paid, spamming becomes unprofitable (the ROI of spam would become negative as they'd need to keep paying for new accounts all the time).

Scraping? If you're selling content you should be selling content and not mode of consumption, and for misbehaving scrapers your DoS defense strategy (you have one, right?) would also work there - an easy solution is to rate-limit the amount of requests by account to a reasonable level (that a human user won't exceed) and then let them choose whether they want to consume the content manually or through scraping.
