USA will not take unilateral action against Russia. The fact the it is willing to try to uncover those actions by Russia is a signal that it is doing whatever possible to make clear to the public that Russia is invading Ukraine (not defending itself), but also making clear that it does not want to support Ukraine military.
False Flags and Crisis Actors are a dangerous conspiracy theory.
Really cool project. To implement it though, one really should be careful to not just load the IPs nillywilly into ones ACL’s…

Run some test on the list before using it, to make sure your own assets isn’t mentioned in there. If you don’t, you end up creating a DOS vulnerability in your system :D
Which is why it might make sense to get the government involved, instead of having a purely private-sector no-fly-list sharing among airlines, which would effectively ground someone without supervision or recourse.

(Though I can imagine some libertarians reply "well, just take your own plane..." :-)
Yeah I own like 100 games on the Switch at this point (most first party, several good third party, and some cheaper retro or indie games), and those two games are still the best games to me on the Switch, by far. I kind of doubt they're going to be topped, even by their sequels.

BOTW, SMO, Baba is You, Persona 5 Royal, Outer Wilds, Subnautica, The Witness, God of War (2018 version), Nier Automata, Slay the Spire are all masterpieces of design in the past 5 years, for my tastes.
I dislike how you cannot make incremental progress in this game (compared to wordle, hangman, etc)
> Russia spent all that time, money, and effort

To enrich some oligarchs associated with the Kremlin and play geopolitics about energy? Yeah it wouldn't be surprising in the slightest.

Point taken.

Still, it's the "economics of abundance" to automatically dole out huge amounts of address space to someone who can't demonstrate the need for more than a few dozen addresses.
That seems like a tiny overreaction?
>On the other hand Ukraine itself is saying it’s not a crisis

This is such a dishonest take.

The Ukrainian government is downplaying the Russian threat because it doesn't want its tax paying population to flee to Western Europe.

Our devs in Ukraine are expecting war soon and are looking into relocating with their families.

No, GDPR applies to everyone. The government is proactively only enforcing GDPR vs organizations, private persons need to sue to get GDPR enforcement against each other.
Also - should companies use this list, their usage would of course need to be GDPR compliant.

Ask HN: Who understands Pipewire/Wireplumber in Fedora 35? Need help
Fedora 35 and bluetooth headphones. Bliss! However I run a relatively rare multi-seat setup. The bluetooth dongle is plugged into a USB hub that belongs to "seat1". However if a paired bluetooth headphone is turned on, it is (usually) added to the audio device list for "seat2" and not available to the others.

Something is not multi-seat aware; I assume all three sessions jump on the newly added device and who gets it is a race condition.

Does anyone know how a workaround for this, or can walk me through how all this works, or point to documentation that does, so I can come up with my own workaround? It merely necessary to force newly added bluetooth audio devices to seat1; the other two stations don't need them.
You can definitely be fined as an individual for GDPR non-compliance.

> The point is, when the user copies a piece of information he has a clear target for that information (clipboard is the tool he uses do copy from one window to another), why would all other apps have access to it?

Everything that is run by the user runs in the same context. There is little point in focusing on the clipboard, because any two programs running within the same user can do literally anything to each other. Including spying on each other keystrokes, modifying each other's text widgets contents, and faking whatever text/images they are displaying. The fact that they may alter the clipboard contents is irrelevant when they can literally monitor and inject keystrokes on each other.

This is the security model that we have right now at the desktop. Good luck trying to find a better one that just does not completely break UNIX and turns it into something like Android. One of the benefit of this model is that you (the user) have practically unlimited freedom in hooking the system in ways that nobody expects (e.g. a clipboard access detector), but then so does anybody else you decide to trust (by running their program in the same context).
From the same sources that claimed there are WMD in Iraq.
Fair enough, I was too negative. I'll leave my comment unedited, so people won't get confused about the exchange.

The article itself is ok, and the researchers had good intentions. The problem is the idea took a life of its own. It almost became a meme. I heard this article many times quoted on HN. And the idea itself is definitely wrong, and needs to be debunked.

If the 521-year half-life were remotely true, we couldn't hope to ever sequence something older than 100 or 1000 half lives (i.e. half a million years). Well, we did that just the year after (this article was published in 2012, we sequenced a 500k year old fossil in 2013) We also sequenced a one million year fossil in 2021 [1])

By the fact that Russia gave Ukraine security guarantees for giving up nuclear arsenal (3rd largest in the world) in the Budapest memorandum and still decided to annex Crimea in 2014.

Ukraine was already invaded and is at war with Russia over Donbas since 2014.

Russia does not deny their current military buildup on Ukraine border with Belarus and Russia.

so, I can't help but note that when I said an email client should not need to request these capabilities and anything that did would be malware, you said an email client definitely needed to request these capabilities and gave as the example the ILOVEYOU virus.
So does the Associated Press it seems, as per the exchange during the press conference.

But yes, I would probably want some form of intelligence briefing being declassified in paper form before pointing the finger at a nuclear adversary. That ol' extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence thing.

Or do you think that some spy in Russia, telephoned a guy in the pentagon, that telephoned a guy in the whitehouse, that setup a press conference and then telephoned a guy to brief him about something he should say, that may or may not help to provoke a war?

Seems a bit far fetched.
From a physics point of view, an orbit around a celestial body is just a special case of a more general phenomenon. The explanation is the same, only the numbers giving the spatial distribution of the gravitational potential within the gravity well are different.

> If there is no minimum required velocity to maintain altitude, it isnt really an orbit imho.

If you put, into a gravity well, a body that is initially stationary with respect to the location of the well's minimum potential, but offset from it, it will begin to move on an orbit, under the influence of that gravitational potential.

The JWST orbit is more complicated, because L2 is a potential saddle, not a well, and it is affected by the moon's gravity, but I think one needs to be aware of the points I made above before one can begin to deal with those complications.
Always fascinating to me that being interested in fringe science and history always seems to mean listening to people who have no idea what they’re talking about instead of finding the actual fringes and edges of legitimate research and understanding. Probably because the quacks are easier to understand and simply more fun, since they’re aiming to be entertaining rather than accurate. And accuracy is, frankly, boring.

Anyway, going back to reading my book about how aliens told Bill Gates how to invent computers in 1992, leading him to found Apple and help the Allies win World War 2. It’s the story the mainstream media doesn’t want you to hear.
Almost no company pays people based on COL. Pay is based on the market rate for the area which should generally go up as COL increases but not in every case or for every role.

None of that seems as clear to me as it does to you.

We don't use C++ exceptions anywhere in SerenityOS. Instead we use an ErrorOr<T>[1] return type for functions that may fail. These are then automatically propagated by use of a TRY() macro[2].

I haven't thought about encoding allocation failure as a low pointer value. I suppose you could, but it'd only work for pointers with sufficient alignment. Character/byte pointers often start at unaligned offsets when not coming directly from an allocator. Either way, I'm not sure compressing this information would solve any real problem we're having.

Doesn’t that sort of make it a noop though? I.e., its just a claim for which they can provide no evidence, and anyone can (and do) make those all the time and it’s just how politics works.

I can only imagine how hard it must be to protect sources, but the end state must eventually be to provide evidence or there is no way to tell the difference between an intelligence service and a method for manufacturing unsubstantiated claims at the convenience of whoever operates the agency. Maybe I’m being naive.
Well I just laughed so hard I woke my baby up. Thank you for that on a Saturday morning.

I was expecting such a reply. It is really frustrating talking to people with an attitude such as yours.

He has a large inter-national audience and the number of people that have watched his podcast is in the 10s if not 100s of millions. That is more people than a lot of countries in Europe. Yet you find it hard to believe that the audience can have diverse (in the truest sense of the word)? That is quite frankly moronic.

As for the people I've talked to about it. These are people in aren't in my "bubble". I simply had a passing conversation with them in a break-room or on a Slack call (I work remote now) while waiting for people to filter in or some random people I've spoken to on Discord. These are not close friends, or people I even regularly speak to.

Every programmer I know is also keenly interested in making art. Perhaps what society views as an artist has yet to change: do you need to be a full time dedicated art practitioner to be considered as an artist?

-

Creative thinking

Dedication to learning the craft

Ability to innovate

Self learning, forward thinking

Stubborn

Invests many, many hours

Is this the skill set of the artist or the programmer?
If you believe that Russian intentions for Ukraine will be published weeks in advance in by an American media outlet, I have a bridge over the Dnieper river to sell you.
Ah yes, the old "Russia was provoked into invading Ukraine" defense. Along the lines of "Germany was provoked into invading Poland".
That's a good compromise.

Paul Graham did a lot of both art and CS. The book Hackers and Painters is on that subject. He even retired from both Yahoo and Y Combinator at a moment when they were doing amazing, leaving crazy money on the table, in order to do some painting.

In addition, it took me a long time to track this detail down, but "ANSI Common Lisp" does not include any information about the cover art, what its name is, the artist credit, nothing. It also has no signature. Turns out the author painted it.
>Are there really people on HN that think Russia spent all that time, money, and effort to amass their troops on the border just as a ruse,

Not as a ruse, but as a show of force to bolster his negotiation position. Putin would have to be insane to actually invade. It would be the end of his regime.

US intelligence agencies have a history of making things up, yes.

As for "what is going on in the comments", I have to ask the same question. The credulity, paranoia, and lack of perspective is somewhat astonishing to me. There are people who literally think that eastern Ukraine is absolutely vital to American interests.
Indeed, there is an amusing reddit about the "confidently incorrect" at r/confidentlyincorrect
There’s a safety aspect that the flight attendants are responsible for at play here. They’re not just on the plane to push the beverage and snack carts. I’ve seen people getting up and into the overhead bins before we left the taxiway. I don’t know what goes through passengers’ heads, but I can see a firm command from a FA being appropriate in some circumstances.
I will forget it was changed in less than 7 days. The change is not intrusive.

I agree that the simplifying of icons has become tired, but I started asking myself a question to help me not get worked up over it. If I didn't know the history of this icon and I saw it for the first time, is it memorable in a good way or a bad way? Most of the time the answer is neither. It's unfortunate though how much time is spent by designers and devs on this sort of thing. And it's not just designers, it's people hours and A/b testing and compliance and red tape.

If I was a designer, being able to say I worked on the logo of something as big as chrome would feel like achievement. But in the bigger picture, it's hard to make novel design choices in these redesigns.

I learned to not think about it as much, just like I learned to make do with different fonts because I code across a lot of different systems.

You are quite literally proving to those people that there is a conspiracy to suppress the information. I don't think banning pizzagate from public discourse does anything beneficial. I say this as someone with a nutcase qanon family member.
I will say, not all bike lanes are created equal. In the Netherlands, a lot of bike lanes are built as proper infrastructure. They're separated with a curb, nicely paved, free of debris, heck they often have their own traffic lights. In many US cities, they just slap some paint on the ground and call it good.

Having ridden on both types, the Dutch style bike lane feels much safer.

From my observations most people don't even know that Malone was on the show. Most criticism that I've seen during this latest drama is targeted directly at Joe Rogan himself. It very much feels like a bandwagon against "bro science", even if wildly misjudged.
Agreed. That said, no one is an island. A hosting provider, ISP, CDN, even DNS can all decide to make you disappear from the web. Of course, it's a much higher bar than relying on Facebook, Twitter, or Spotify.
If you think this is because the skill sets (or, perhaps more importantly, the mindsets) of the two have no overlap (an outlook I used to have, too), I suggest you read pg’s classic essay “Hackers and Painters”: http://www.paulgraham.com/hp.html

On the value side, I totally agree. Early 2000 offerings were just... sad, partly due to the over-digitalization (I own a Marantz from that time, which forces many optimizations, Dolby support and similar, but in the end sounds considerably worse than its cheaper predecessors).

For how I see it, in the last year there has been a huge increase of sound quality over price, probably partly due to the growing Chi-Fi competition (especially on headphones).

I bought some sad Sennheiser IEMs in 2015 for around €160, and in 2022 they sound like garbage compared to some €40 offerings from China IEM brands (KZ, TRN, ... whatever).

Also, awareness of Bluetooth and wireless sound quality has thankfully brought to something beyond extremely expensive devices that just sounded like excessive DSP and compression.
I wonder how much gaming time actually involves AAA games?

> Sometimes courts do order people not to use computers or electronic communications devices.

Yes... a court, almost exclusively as a result of a major crime (hacking or child pornography/pedophilia), and almost always just restricted or supervised access. Delta is a private company looking to impose even harsher blanket bans arbitrarily.

> Again, yes this happens. At least in terms of being a driver.

So it happens but for a completely different use case. Where you just can't operate the vehicle yourself but are freely allowed to use it if operated by someone else or any of the many realistic alternatives.

Being banned from any flight for being a nuisance is nothing like any of those cases. Sometimes there's no realistic alternative to flight due to price or conditions.

> Instead there should be a multi-year ban on flying followed by a lifetime of only being able to fly in physical restraints. By restraints I mean, if not put in a coffin like box and shipped as cargo, then adult diaper, anti-spit hood, straight-jacket and ankle shackles.

My God man, this is deranged! You spent 2 lines being completely wrong about the facts trying to contradict my opinion, and 80% of your comment with a deranged description of how someone should be abused, humiliated, punished, and almost guaranteed killed in case of an accident just for the "privilege" of being on a flight after doing something stupid.

Surely if such punishments were applied every time you did something stupid we would be having a different conversation now. I know because I've seen too many people with "radical" ideas having a moment of enlightenment when being at the wrong end of them.

This is a conspiracy theory which does not make any sense. The second Chechen war was completely justified by the Chechen attack on Dagestan. There are numerour terrorist acts done by Chechen rebels which are not questioned at all; but it's postulated that precisely these terrorist acts were fake (out of so many real ones!).
