I'm equally puzzled by how people can feel proud of something they did not achieve personally (ex: the history of their country, the result of their favorite sport team) or food items that are "traditional" while better alternatives exist (ex: I had french friends talking at length about how overroasted/burnt french expresso cafe creme is better than a flat white, or how seedless grapes can't be as good) or even having some health issue (some guys told me they are proud to be bald. ok??)

People seem to derive utility from membership in a social group, or conforming to this group prescriptions ("thou shalt not like Australian coffee???") so I believe this is just an extension at the gene level.
Strange. I think I pay 50-60 a year.
> Marrying and divorcing based on love alone, with nothing else at stake doesn’t look to me like a bad thing.

This is just the difference of opinion OP is making; they see marriage as having the functional purpose of dedicating one's life to the other person, sharing responsibilities and goals with them (and taxes), ie. the development of platonic love; this is required if the couple doesn't want to divorce when/if that eros / romantic love dies out.

In reality, nobody likes going through a divorce, so if they do marry without being ready to commit to shared goals like this, they're hoping that eros love never dies out, which I bet doesn't happen often.
Not really, Vercel has employed the Svelte creator. They don't care which framework (svelteKit in this case) is popular, as long as it drives people to use their service.

Also people can have opinions, outside of being company spoke persons.
I tried the Electron version six months ago, and I wrote up its weaknesses here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28147305

EDIT: I just tried the latest beta, and I'm happy to say that scrolling the list is now much faster! On the other hand, the blurry fonts, the lack of overscroll, the non-native dropdown menus, the inability to view your vault with the Preferences window open, and the lag when resizing the window are all still there. This does not fill me with hope that the final released version is going to be any better.
Yeah, there were a lot of such sites and still are. https://alltop.com/ was Guy Kawasaki's one (now seems to be someone else). https://upstract.com/ is another. But yeah, I definitely remember others.
The problem is the utopia you are envisioning only happens if the whole world is moulded into either one government or no government at all. All those paperless mathematical property rights are constructs of individual governments that are in turn a by product of the borders between geographical places. Crypto only will exist when there is peace and more importantly prosperity, without a network, energy and resources there is no crypto.
Yes [1]? The argument is about whether Intel refuses to license their processor designs to 3rd parties to be fabbed in any random fab.

[1] Evidently the x86 cross licensing deals between AMD and Intel doesn't preclude AMD from using 3rd party fabs.
There is no royal road to changing one's mental behaviors and habits. It's a metacognitive skill and can be developed like any other skill but you'll have to put in the work to develop it. Start by developing an exercise routine that you can stick to, preferably cardio. Then make sure your diet is not full of junk calories. If you manage those two then you'll be on your way to developing higher level cognitive skills and might resolve whatever issues you have with your OCD.
I need to dig it up, but PayPal once did a security presentation on “trust indicators” like EV certs related to user behavior.

The conclusion was essentially that trust indicators offer no benefit at all and can even go as far as creating harm since it could encourage a user to trust an entity that they don’t know if the system is abused. The psychology of it boils down to this: people trust lots of sites, services and other people who haven’t paid extra for these trust indicators and because of that it’s not going to change their behavior at all.

On the flip side, inline and accurate warning indicators go a long way towards making users more cautious. Big red warnings from Google about users outside your domain for example.
Why not? It’s all just a wordplay anyway.

Phrase “im proud of <something>” means nothing. It how people act that matters. And there is no direct link between being proud and acting in a certain manner… so who cares :)
You're right that the control plane currently is not OSS. Most people we talked to when we first embarked on the journey said that it was critical for the authorizer to run locally (and be OSS), but they preferred to not have to operate the control plane.

With that said, our intent is to create the option to run the entire system self-hosted.
Most of my banking I bootstrapped from a physical interaction. The one provider I haven't had any physical interaction with I validated on the Financial Services Register: https://www.fca.org.uk/firms/financial-services-register

The FCA website can be validated using the UK Government website: https://www.gov.uk/registration-with-the-financial-conduct-a...

And if someone's managed to break gov.uk then I've got bigger problems.

I'll note, though, that most of the time I'm going to be using a credit card and it'll be obvious fairly quickly if whatever goods or services I've ordered don't appear. It's only really if I'm making multi-year investments (or going completely off the correct payment rails) that it's catastrophic if I make a mistake.

I really am genuinely trying to understand how woke has become the bogeyman du nos jour. It's become a hysteria - say something is woke and you ascribe some mythical attributes to it that cause people to fall into paroxisms.

Same as a bunch of strange crazes that have cropped up over the years; witch trials, spanish inquisition, mccarthayism, 80s satanic child-abuse.

Say something or someone is woke and it's like yelling "communist" in the 50s.

It's a fantastic distraction mechanism for anyone wishing to deploy it and I'm just staggered that seemingly intelligent people go into a Pavlov's dog response as soon as they hear it.

The amazing thing what I've found is practially no-one can actually put into words what they think it means.
Hugs are great! But, where dudes can be creepy with a handshake, a hug is much more vulnerable. Hugs are for trusted friends.
I think you're broadly right; I would agree the article comes for DigiCert when it should come for browsers, and this pretty embarrassing for the web.

And I think you're right about EV? Ignoring gross CAs trying to juice the web, it makes sense to try to link the web's web of trust to our... non-web web of trust. The web is still pretty new, it's still pretty unfamiliar, and a lot of the signals we use to suss out a fraudulent physical shop don't really apply to the web.

I would counterargue, though, that you're really mythologizing physical stores. I think tons of fraud and abuse happen in physical stores, up and down the stack. The "paper trail" is like 45 minutes on LegalZoom. I think it's worth separating things like banks and bank websites from like, illegal casinos and gambling websites (crypto exchanges are what I mean here).

When you kind of pick away at the "physical stores have no fraud" pillar, then I think the web's security/trust model actually holds up. I don't simply rely on TLS to tell me that bankofamerica.com is legit, and I don't think anyone does, which is good because it doesn't! I also have totally different behavior when I'm doing online banking than when I'm [insert risky/shady thing here], because the threat model is different.

And there's where I think we hit a crossroads, because that "risky/shady" thing for everyone is "getting an email that looks like it's from your bank". This is an attack that doesn't really have an analogue in meatspace, but it's super effective because again, we don't have all the signals we normally do. If it were meatspace, I'd notice this wasn't my usual branch and then probably notice some other differences that might give me pause, but the web makes it possible to create a very convincing copy.

So, I think you're right in the large and I super agree. I just think that phishing is very bad and you shouldn't say you solved it when you in fact haven't solved anything. That's (almost certainly) browsers' fault, but that's a little irrelevant imo.
If I have a job that seems fine, and a recruiter I’ve never met contacts me about some job that seems no better, or clearly worse, why would I respond (if I do) with anything more than the canned reply of no interest?

Anyone else here feel like interviewing every time a recruitment pitch comes in?
Biological reductionism is different from just simply science. There is a lot above love that we simply can't explain at the level of neurotransmitters because our understanding of such high level functions is highly incomplete. Trying to say that there is nothing more to it that the incomplete understanding we have is reductionism.
Wow, I was thinking of leaving KeepassXC for 1password but that is very much a deal-breaker. The UI isn't as pretty or well-thought, of course, but at the very least there aren't as many limitations
> Convention (and common sense) dictates the former, but in the face of many effects, who's to say there even is an order at all?

It might come down to implementation, but I would expect the different types to signify different behavior.

With Exn<Promise<T>>, we have something that can throw errors in producing an promise, but then that Promise reliably returns a T (if it completes at all, but then we probably don't have a termination checker in non promise code anyway so we're probably used to hand waving that away).

With Promise<Exn<T>>, on the other hand, you definitely have a Promise and the computation won't raise an exception until after you've awaited it (or equivalent).

You have errors and nondeterminism? Well, do errors cause rollback or abort the entire thing?

Nondeterminism and a Writer? Do we collect observations from execution traces that didn't complete?

Effect sets either greatly restrict the kinds of effects we can talk about (and your example already includes some that we need to rule out), or pretend that ordering does not matter when it clearly does.
I have, but literally two items. I was first, or super early enough to have an opportunity to flag.

Usually, it is flagged before I show up.

A simple, "Flag for realz, no?" Might be a net win. But, it would also break the lean and mean, oh so sweet UX here too.
Israel is so small that according to your definition of "next" everything has to be "next" to the Gaza Strip, the Golan Heights and the West Bank, and also to Lebanon, Syria Egypt and Jordan for good measure.

Seriously, Tower is far away from the Golan Heights in the Israeli sense. It is however in the Galilee (big Arab population) and "near" the West Bank.

I think the closeness to the Technion university and to Intel's partners factories (KLA Temcor...) is a much more significant factoid
> The OP (a) showed some icons that I doubt are in Unicode and (b) mentioned some hundreds or thousands of icons.

I saw. But the point you made was far more generalised so I gave examples of where icons can have that feature.

> The English word can be defined in a dictionary

Which is still no use if you cannot read English

> and, then, readily translated to nearly any language on the planet.

Automated translations are usually terrible. They’re just about passable for larger volumes of text because you can figure out what the article is generally about. But for short words without context, good luck getting a meaningful translation

> Nothing similar is available for icons.

You keep saying that and you keep overlooking that a good icon will illustrate the action in a meaningful way.

Sure shit icons do exist but then so do shit labels for actions that don’t describe the action well. But you cannot form an argument where you’re comparing the worst of icons against the best of written labels. That’s simply not a fair basis for an argument.

You’ve also overlooked my point about conveying information clearly but tersely. And about people with other kinds of reading difficulties. In fact you seem only focused on web site design while making a sweeping statement that all icons are bad.

Honestly the best thing you can do here is go read a book on design. Or on why road signs are the way they are. Or even just an article on why the media glyphs were invented. You’re quoting your own opinion but here but there’s been decades of research into this very topic.
I’m not even sure that captures it. You must not void the safety contract in unsafe Rust. The distinction is that with unsafe, you must manually uphold the safety contract.
From user's perspective only difference between EV certificate, LetsEncrypt certificate and no certificate are couple of words hidden somewhere in browser UI and maybe an icon. You still need some level of expertise to use this info, IMO even more than you'd need to notice that "chase.com.xxx.xxx" isn't legit.

The article appears to be an obvious attack on ProtonMail.

It’s clear that private keys are held client-side-encrypted on servers. You need that to read your emails in new devices. It’s standard and doesn’t lower security.

It’s also obvious that any website could serve you with bad Java script code.

Waste of time.

I don't know that those were the only two alternatives.

> Please tell us what other strategy you advocate.

"Tell us": who is "us"? In any case, I'm thankfully not in the situation to decide, nor am I an armchair general, so I'll have to excuse myself from invading or bombing Japan.

To state my position once again: the narrative popular in the US, that the atomic bombings were justified as a terrible necessity and that they actually saved lives ("Japanese lives", like someone else stated) is only popular in the US, and it exists mostly to enable them to retain their sense of being the good guys. Other countries, unburdened by the necessity of always making the US look like the good guys, don't favor this particular narrative.
Just to note that at least once delivery is the best case scenario if you configure Delayed::Job correctly, we just made it impossible to configure otherwise in our fork. The only alternative is at-most-once delivery, which puts you in Sidekiq territory with the potential for silent job loss. The semantics of exactly once delivery can only be achieved by domain-aware code, and the way to do that with any form of background job system is building jobs that are internally idempotent.
As an ex-Auth0 I was watching Aserto for a while - it is indeed elegantly designed to naturally pick up where Auth0 leaves you. I wish this was available when we were adding authorization to Fusebit APIs. But well, next startup...

Huh? Seems super clear to me that "assertTrue" is asserting Truthyness and not equality. It's right there in the method name! And if you don't know "True" means Truthyness in Python, they you don't know the basics of Python.

A reviewer should catch this error easily. I kind of think many don't give much attention to unittests when reviewing. Which is bad. Good unittests are far harder to write than good code.

There's much more subtle errors of this class (False Negatives / always pass).
“Financial transactions don't generally happen on first visits to websites” is just a description of how things are today, it doesn’t help us think about how things could be or could have been.

Any purchase is a financial transaction; not sure why you zeroed in on banking. Those happen during first visits offline all the time.

As others mentioned, my experience is the opposite. I'm on Mac, and I forced myself to ditch Chrome due to privacy concerns and, honestly, I don't miss it at all.

Occasionally, I have to fire it up to test something for work, or if a site doesn't support Firefox (it's 2022 devs, come on). And, each time it reminds me of why I prefer Firefox. It seems so bulky in comparison, and everything seems to slowdown with it open, where Firefox just happily stays open in the background, w/multiple windows and tabs and rarely causes any issues.

Give it a shot again if it's been awhile, it's great.

It would have infuriated the Chinese and other Asian allies of the Allied powers. Granted, they might not have immediately been able to do anything about it but, as later wars and economic growth in the region showed, they were far from impotent and the Allies had to look toward the post-war future.
Not everyone learns the same. Some programmers and math centered folks need a guiding "first principles" approach before being able to move past to higher level understanding. This was the case for me. Without some way to organize knowledge, it's hard to understand which pieces of information are important, which are redundant and which should be applied (and why).

This learning style is not universal and, in my view, why this article is specifically titled "Music theory for nerds". Programmers especially can make highly complex music without ever learning a classic instrument. Algoraves, chiptune, generative music, DAWs, real-time music programming environments etc. are all a thing and participants often don't need any concept of a "real" instrument to create quality music therein.

I think you're right about the happy/sad being a cultural quality but there might be portions of it that might be explained by other means. Here's my attempt, which is almost surely at least partly wrong: "Major" chords have more constructively interfering waves than do "Minor" chords, especially in the lower frequencies, where more of the power lays.

which is kind of at odds with or opposite to the emphasis placed on western individualism.
The definition of "military target" was an arbitrary definition (like most definitions) done by those who decided to bomb them. Kyoto was also a possible target favoured by the military, and it was replaced by Nagasaki.

And as you know, Hiroshima was chosen because it was undamaged and the effects of the bomb could be studied. So we can add "weapons testing on civilians" to the list of crimes.
I can understand the crushing handshake as some kind of game between men.

The AI of the creature was really memorable. It really feels like you're building a relationship with this character. I've noticed that while the graphics of games get better every year the AI does not make any progress. Games with convincing AI like F.E.A.R and Black & White are ancient outliers.
That is surprising to me. I think 343 is pushing the game to esports.

The truckers started protesting due to federal mandates preventing them from crossing the borders, so protesting in Ottawa makes lots of sense.

They are asking the prime minister to drop the mandates or step down.

I agree that it isn't reasonable to expect the federal government to tell the provinces what to do, but they have been protests in all the major cities as well (so far as I can tell).
Anyone who does any gaming at all will know that for regular non-mobile gaming it's all Playstation, Xbox and Steam (PC). Few platforms will ever beat these three. Microsoft has their own cloud gaming service which is already available on Xbox and I doubt anyone else can compete against Microsoft in this space given their experience and platform advantage. Publishers are already signing deals with Microsoft to host their own cloud gaming experiences. But GeForce Now is never going to take off, gamers don't care and most don't even know it exists. Sony can't even compete against Microsoft at this point as they're too far behind and they're arguably the top console platform right now so the barrier of entry is amazingly high.

Stadia succeeding on it's own is just a bonus and I'm sure Google would like it to. But the real purpose for Stadia long-term is for Google to build out a cloud gaming capability on Google Cloud and sign major publishers to compete against Microsoft. Then when they have enough cloud gaming revenues coming in they can quietly sunset Stadia. This is all about keeping parity with Microsoft's cloud Azure the second the leading platform after Amazon Web Services. Amazon also has a games division with a similar purpose to lose money for a long time on cloud games from it's own studios as a way to build capability.
Or maybe just word love is so vague and general and used in so many unrelated contexts that it's not useful when people attept to explain anything.

Sure but there's way to say something that may hurt someone... even if you don't intend to.

I think it's something that happens more on the web as we forget there's someone on the other side.

> Also, it may turn out this is a weird corner-case and MySQL is somehow incompatible with his laptop.

You started with "There's no chance" though... You may be ready to change your stance, but your first sentence didn't have that possibility. What someone understands by your sentence is that "I am the problem" instead of "there may be a problem".

I don't think OP example was the best to illustrate the issue, but I don't have a better example either, still struggling with that myself too.
The difference is Geforce Now works with your existing Steam library. You don't need to re-buy games you already known, and if the service shuts down the games are still yours to keep and play on your own hardware. If I spend hundreds on dollars on Stadia games today, is there any guarantee that I'll still be able to play them a month from now?
I don't know is that's "correct" bit what I use is KeePass with the KeeAgent plugin, which acts as an SSH agent.

Regarding a pitch classifier machine, typically algorithms for pitch classification/tracking/detection focus only on the fundamental frequency (or f0) of the input sound wave. So, _technically_ pitch and f0 are used interchangeably where they shouldn't be.

I have yet to see a pitch classifier machine that tries to implement the special workings of the human auditory system.
