I'm talking about both.

AD with roaming profiles was a nightmare if for some reasons the workstation couldnt connect to the server when they logged on, somehow users managed to create multiple roaming profiles which jammed up the network when their massive ms exchange/outlook files 5Gb+ size early 00's downloaded for "offline" working.

And with the windows 10 accounts where its nigh on impossible to get onedrive to stop copying your files. If when setting a new computer, you dont create a ms account when you configure your first user, its easier to get rid of onedrive, but if you have or create a ms account which is used to add a user when setting up a new computer to log into windows, then onedrive just keeps coming back like a virus. Absolute pain in the backside.

I'm at the stage of looking at Linux now but not ubuntu because even ubuntu phones home with meta data and that had been reported some years ago in the press, there just isnt any privacy from these devices anymore. I dont even own a mobile phone now its got that bad with being tracked. I've gone from early adopter to last person on the adoption curve line.

These people dont understand privacy and the security services/law enforcement are loving all this surveillance, they have never had it so easy before, being able to place virtually every individual in a country at the push of a button.

That makes sense :)

If you saw anything when evaluating Pion that could have made it better I would love to hear. Always trying to improve. These threads are super exciting since I get a general guidance.

Existing Pion users are biased/accepting of its flaws ;)
There's another reason why companies don't want to hire felons - liability.

I've seen many companies successfully sued over the years because one of their employees committed a crime against a customer. The lawsuit was because the company hired an ex-con.

To get companies to hire ex-cons, liability laws need to be amended to protect companies from that sort of liability.
I like serif fonts, but on page 31 of that document, "List of Design Recommendations," it says: "Sans-serif fonts are usually more legible than fonts with serifs."
> Then they continued to have to figure out what to say to get the Lego back.

No, they were made to write new rules together this time. Nothing in the article stood out to me as coercive. The teachers made the kids actually think about what they were doing and discuss openly, instead of each kid blindly indulging their own self-interest.
One of the better clips:

>Isn't this finally a conclusive study debunking all the claims saying Ivermectin alone is a good prevention/treatment for COVID-19?

It wont do a good job of that because the study reported 70% fewer deaths for the Ivermectin treated patients than control (3 vs 10), as well as reductions in ICU and ventilator with treatment.
The scooter companies had over a year of negotiations with the city, and nothing improved.

My policy for any use of photos of our kids on my blog (which is mostly my projects, but occasionally includes triplogs, and as my kids are getting older, they show up a bit more often in builds) is simple: My wife and I both have to be entirely OK with any photos of them that I use - and I typically will use hand photos, or photos from the rear if they're helping with something. It's only very occasionally that you actually see faces, and that's going to be something like an interesting place we were as a family. Said photos are almost always a landscape shot with us in them.

Our house, our rules. When they're old enough to be interacting with the internet on their own, I intend to apply the same rules - and we run a limited tech household anyway. Electronics don't go in rooms, and we've deliberately set things up so that the house computer is visible when in use, etc.

"Oh, lulz, my daughter has a YouTube channel of her being a cute enough preteen to have 1000 subscribers without me knowing about it" would be well beyond the scope of reasonable, and in addition to having supervised-only internet use for quite a long while, I would supervise the removal of the channel. That's just not acceptable, in any way.

If my kids want to publish things to the internet (and I hope they will), that's fine - it just has to go through us as parents first, at least until a regular trend of good judgement is demonstrated, and we get access to whatever is being published as well.
Easy solution. But they said in the article that they wanted to oppose the system that the kids were building
The chance of being born an ant is about the chance of being born a skin cell or a transistor. You are a skin cell, in fact a lot of them. But "you" as an entity or identity isn't. Do your skin cells have thoughts and aspirations? There's probably a minimum level of complexity needed to form an identity.

An ant colony has an intelligence level similar to a dog; the ants act more like little robots or cells. Is a city conscious? A city has lots of parts, it grows, it becomes ill. What about a planet?

Maybe the question should be what's the luck that we're born humans and not ant colonies or states?

I agree. Apparently it's just a library, so you have to use it to construct an application.

But they should provide some links to applications built with it.
One year ago… time seems to be speeding up for me.

Thanks for the kind words. Hopefully you are happy with your choice! If you ever need any help or just a WebRTC sounding board I am always excited to chat.
I think maybe they would be more effective by revealing themselves earlier on and hopefully scaring the offender out of doing what they are doing (I dont really know the psychology of this, I picture there are pathological cases that need real help and won't be deterred anyway and some borderline creeps who just need to be shocked into realizing what they are doing is not cool.) For the latter group, scaring the shit out of them may better serve the actual purpose of deterring crimes against children, vs going all the way to some kind of final sting operation that is only going to marginalize people further and maybe even push them to doing more of this. Unfortunately I think the vigilantes are more about getting a sensational result than actually trying to solve a problem
Why LLVM needs this explaining? Probably somewhere an optimiser could inspect something and it doesn't.

Rust cuts the slice in half and swaps between the halves, so probably LLVM doesn't convince itself that if you did those swaps directly they aren't ever aliased, but once there are two slices which can't overlap it can see it's fine.
There's a lot here I resonate with. Ironically, I'm sort of headed in the opposite direction—I've been spending more effort experimenting with and working with tooling in VSCode to add autocomplete/docs/type hints/etc. for Ruby projects. My background is essentially IDE-free…for years I programmed Ruby and JavaScript using nothing but BBCode!

I definitely think there's a sweet spot somewhere in the middle here, and industry trends are likely headed too far into IDE-plus-AI-all-the-things! territory. Over time, I think we'll come to understand the tradeoffs better.
Sometimes that means being fucked up mentally and physically while the adults in your life look on, making excuses.

> This is important for founders to understand IMO because so many of the recent Series A and Series B fund-raises have taken low $M ARR companies and given them valuations >$100M.

This is also puzzling to me. Many founders are just not thinking clearly about exits. Acquirers want revenue and accretive value at a reasonable valuation.
I'm not seeing this materializing. You're talking about not only jobs where employees have secret keys and admin access to data, but on top of that, no fear of anyone peeking over their shoulder even if there is some remote system monitoring. The trust required for the person not to abuse the privileged access and to have a reduced chance of getting caught is a huge risk.
If you want an AI that can recognize cats, and train it with computer generated pictures of cats, you may wind up with an AI that only recognizes cat pictures from that particular generator.

In Europe there are no such things as: 1) secret trials (there are in US[1]) 2) background checks (for the majority of jobs). Also, criminal records get erased after a period of time, depending on the crime committed.

Yeah absolutely

Don't get me wrong, Nix can and should be better in many respects, but:

> Second, Nix surfaces all the complexity involved in building software and forces you to deal with it.

Yes, and If you can't deal with the simple functional language Nix happens to come with, you will never be able to deal all that surfaced complexity.

The latter is 10x worse more challenging.

So in some sense the language is a decent filter for people who won't like the inevitable rest anyways.
Here in the UK we a sex offenders register, but general crimes get struck off the official register after a certain period of time and no longer come up on background checks. It's not perfect, but it's a lot better than locking people out of work forever!
Yeah, but it's less useful to apply that notion to how we operate our society and private property. It's better to start with a system that doesn't require overthrowing the government and redistributing wealth very often.
In stats class in uni we spent a good deal of time discussing the issues with different types of polling. Internet polling was "newish" at that point and so there were interesting debates going on with whether it'd suffer from the same effects as other voluntary polls (TL;DR it does).

When a poll is voluntarily responded to, even if the poll is eligible to the entire population you want to poll, you'll end up with some pretty heavy biases - first off the middle is always underrepresented - people who don't have strong feelings on a topic won't bother taking the time to reply and people who aren't familiar with the topic at all will generally (generally there are obviously people who reject this) decline to respond out of shame. So then you're left with the group of supporters and opposers - it turns out that, as a general rule, you should expect an across the board negative bias on any polls: if I asked "Is vanilla ice cream the best ice cream?" I'll end up getting a much stronger response from the people who disagree compared to those that affirm - when it comes to our attention things we don't like naturally draw more of our attention so that accounts for a decent part of the bias... Additionally the status quo tends to be underrepresented because people who are comfortable with the way things are are less likely to view broadcasting that belief as important... in general underdogs fight a lot harder.

So, back to your point... when discussing anything on the internet, regardless of the forum, expect the responses to be unrepresentative of the population in general and instead be composed of a higher proportion of dissenters than actually exists.

That all said, I do think HN has a notable left-lean. I think technology in general tends to underrepresent strongly religious individuals (there are exceptions: see larry wall) and the tech centers tend to congregate around educational centers which tend to be more liberal than the country as a whole.

Lastly, HN prides itself on being (or aspires to be) a relatively politics free zone - so a large number of people will downvote comments just because they lean in either political discussion because they don't want the conversation to turn into a miniature scale representation of modern US politics.

So yes, you get a strong reaction when advocating free markets just like other people get strong reactions when advocating socialist policies.
> The resolution is that the teachers lay down rules about how the kids can play with legos.

It looks like you didn't actually read to the end of the article, given that the resolution is that the teachers get the children to work out their own rules about the Legos that all of them feel is fair.
For gaming? Ditch virtualbox and migrate your VMs to libvirt/KVM/qemu.

On my main PC I have an RTX2070 Super and a GTX 1070.

I pass the RTX2070 Super through to a libvirt Windows VM and via Scream & looking-glass I can play any and all Windows games at full speed. Elite: Dangerous, No Mans Sky, and so on, run at full speed inside this VM.

An alternative is to run a lot of games via WINE and/or Proton-via-Steam for Linux, which also works fine.

Turns out Windows is basically a gaming OS these days for me - the rest of the work I do gets done on Linux.

And lastly I think I'll be stopping at Windows 10. Running nice and snug in a VM.
My phone has this super quiet noise that is so calming and doesn't wake up the wife when it goes off. It is such a soothing way to wake up. That $15 alarm clock? That's a klaxon alarm letting you know that Armageddon has started.
Ending all UK Covid restrictions ‘premature and not based on evidence’, says BMA
Usually that's the goal of people that suggest this kind of treatment of children. It's usually backed up by a circular is-ought that the kids who are the victims in the bullying and faults are culpable and ought to become stronger if they wish to avoid that happening to them.

There has long been this subculture of actively encouraging bullying amongst children in order to "weed out the weak", and it's disgusting every time it's suggested.
Nix has a few shortcomings:

* The syntax isnt well liked.

* The package manager relies on global state which kills the use of sharing / over NFS.

* The nixstore treats a filesystem as an object store.

* Related to above, permissions aren't secure as they could be.

Some of these can be worked around, some of them require an entirely new project.
If this were true Mac and Windows wouldn’t thrive, but they do just fine without a system level package manager at all.
> Everyone knows that the 'missing' $60M didn't go to their own causes, but was spent

No, they don't, that's rather the basis of the (still inaccurate) characterization of it being missing.
What does that have to do with anything? There's not a shortage of jobs that they are able to do, there's a shortage of jobs we're willing to let them do.
> This wasn't one guided conversation - this was months of them.

Yes, complex topics often require prolonged discussion. "Conversation" can imply an active exchange over the course of time.

> And the children were being recorded and their answers analyzed regularly.

If you had read the article, you would know that the initial conversation was recorded so the teachers could take notes.

Taking notes and analyzing students' answers is literally part of the job description of a teacher. Teachers are not babysitters, they're educators.
No, its legal and HR saying its better to exclude Colorado than expose salaries. Doesn't mean they are low. It means they are unknown.
I was expecting something like "we don't wear shoes in the house". Honestly I'm surprised there hasn't been a class action suit from parents about this.
I'm not exactly sure if you are disagreeing with me, because what you are saying is exactly my point.

A weed possession charge as a minor is the type of thing that I think regulation should disallow as a disqualifying factor for all types of jobs. The idea would be that I would ask a background check service "I am hiring for a CLERK at CONVENIENCE_STORE", and I would just get back a response "No disqualifying convictions found" if all you had were a weed conviction.

I work for a financial services company, and we have pretty clear guidelines about what is or isn't disqualifying. But why should I even have the right to know, for example, if someone was convicted of a DUI 10 years ago? But I absolutely do think I should have the right to know if someone was convicted of theft 2 years ago.
The best explainer for sentence construction, structure, and flow through paragraphs, I've ever read was in Joseph M Williams Style: Towards Clarity and Grace[1]. In it, he works methodically from word choice, to sentence, to paragraph, then to chapter, in order to explain clear and graceful writing, with excellent examples. Anyone can read it and come away a much better writer. In particular, chapters 3, 4, 5, and 6, are very helpful for explaining the uses of emphasis and how to write coherent and clear paragraphs.

I feel like this is more of a commentary on dynamic vs statically typed languages under the guise of being about (a poor caricature of) IDEs. Autocomplete for dynamic typed languages has always been a really hard problem, but that’s less than 10% of what an IDE does for you.
People realized they can make money online. As a result search engine rankings became very important. An industry of search engine optimization was created and raised the bar on what it takes to be at the top of search. This created an adversarial relationship between moneyed interests and real users. People often want boring content but somebody can make money from wasting your time, and so they can spend some of that money to ensure you will come to them. Not by directly paying whoever has your attention but by doing absolutely everything else. The good content everyone wants is simply not spending enough resources to be seen. That's what the game settled on. And I'm not sure how you can change these dynamics.
The criminal mind uses the means available to him. Bernie Madoff was as much a psychopath as a your average mugger; he just had capabilities to not to have to resort to that crude a level of harm.
There is such a wide range between "every man for himself"-style capitalist environments and "conform or be sent to the gulag"-style socialist environments, but for some reason many commenters here feel like it's a binary system. Are you in favor of absolute free markets without any oversight? No? Well you must be a Marxist then.

From a European perspective, this way of thinking feels so weird. There are so many different ways to organise a society without going into either extreme. Compared to the US most countries in western Europe are much more towards the "socialist" end of the scale, with higher tax rates but more social welfare programs. The teachings that are described in this article feel very much normal from my perspective, and it doesn't feel like a slippery slope into totalitarianism.
And really, they need that tech before the embargos lift because the first ones to get content out are the ones that get all the views. LMG might be making more from merch, but they need to keep those views up if they're going to keep selling it. I know Linus prides himself on the quality of the items he sells, but people aren't buying it for the quality alone. So if people stop caring about LTT, they'll stop caring about the merch.
"Some argue"? We've been doing this for the last ten years and that's just as far as my career goes back.
The interrogators are pretty slick at this, and this is clearly not their first rodeo. The way you stop someone from walking out the door is you pretend that if they cooperate with you, you will help them out and contain this issue; if they don't cooperate with you then their life is ruined. You can see this from the good cop/bad cop routine they have setup between the man and the woman [1]

Once you're caught as a pedophile who is lured into a hotel room with walls of text worth of conversations, you're basically done. At that point in your mind you're praying that the person who caught you doesn't disclose this to everyone, your job, your partner, your family, etc... You are praying that there is some way to contain this issue and get some help, and the good cop interrogator gives you some hope that she will help you contain it and that while she thinks what you did is disgusting, she can help get you out of the worst of it if only you cooperate and do what she tells you.

Of course in reality it's not like these interrogators are good guys themselves and this entire thing is being streamed to Twitch in real time. The whole thing is just a crappy mess.

I'm really trying, but I can't figure out how what you just wrote relates to the kids' new rules.
Essentially all schooling is a series of forced conversations. I know a lot of kids who didn't want to talk about math or Shakespeare, but our society has decided that it's important for people to learn those things.

It's definitely valid to question what those things should be, but some conversations need to be "forced" in order to educate children about things they don't know and likely won't discover easily for themselves.
FB is doing with facial recognition what Google is doing with image recognition for captchas.

Calling that "weird" is an understatement, considering what's going on there; Users are asked to identify friends and family for facial recognition, to train an algorithm that FB then monetizes for all kinds of advertisement and surveillance shittery.

The whole thing is imho way past "weird" and firmly in dystopian territory.
Some good points. Thanks!
What would be the real-life equivalent of buying more LEGO then?
I'm also remote, and the 15% salary cut was covered by cost of living and state tax changes. Plus, the ability to support my family's goals by living in a different place is incredibly incredibly valuable.

But the Raleigh-Durham office situation is bullshit. They are paid less than US-REMOTE-NC. They are the only location in the US that had their equity refreshes cut directly rather than ratcheted down. It is the lowest paid location in the US and the research triangle isn't like 2009 Detroit in terms of housing prices. And teams were moved there so if you prefer working on site then it wasn't like it was an optional pay cut for a different location.
I think the opposite is more likely. WFH increases the level of trust needed between employer and employee.
My Skype accounts all have Microsoft accounts of their own.

I guess it's a good thing Skype isn't the mainstay it used to be.
Sure, then a bunch of kids end up learning the lesson "I'm better than my peers" and a bunch of other kids end up learning the lesson "My peers are always out to hurt me".
It wasnt just Victorian hunters, the whole country was pretty brutal, sayings existed like "children should be seen and not heard", "stiff upper lip" that sort of thing, and you dont get to run an empire by being nice. That mentality still exists in large parts of the british establishment even today.
