It kinda feels like you’re deliberately talking around my point. I’m not saying existing VPNs use PAKEs and it makes them bad. I’m saying you don't need a PAKE to have “modern” authentication. And look at wireguard which is loved for being a dead simple protocol that uses raw keypairs. Therefor it’s not absurd to imagine a very simple protocol like this.

You are correct that client certs have user agent support. Honestly it’s a pretty poor UX though. Have you actually tried building a consumer application that uses client certs in the browser? Good luck getting users to install client certs. Client certs work fine everywhere else where you can run bespoke client software (native apps) except for the part where they authenticate the connection and not the request, but that’s not the point either.

Anyway it’s great that other implementations of webauthn exist. But like I just said for client certs: outside of the browser anyone can do anything so webauthn is not a game changer there (not to downplay it). Where WebAuthn matters is for client authentication in the browser and in that arena it is locked down to platform auth and hardware device auth mechanisms. There is no way users could benefit from webauthn right now without the browser-supplied UX.

All I’m saying is that WebAuthn would be way more viable in the way people are asking for in this thread if for example browsers/platforms allowed extensions to participate as a soft WebAuthn agent so that users could choose their preferred WebAuthn backend and UX instead of the browser supplied options. The browser client cert UX sucks and so does browser vendor WebAuthn and I think their adoption story is all the proof you need.
If anyone is interested in trying out actix (or rust in general) for fullstack app development, you can quickly kickstart a project using create-rust-app[1].

But why would you want that? The only reason anyone (including Inuits) are going to burn fat is if you are in a caloric deficit and the only reason you put on fat is if you are in a caloric surplus. So unless you look forward to a life of yo-yo dieting, this won't do you any good. Since we have plenty of food it's better to only eat what you need to year round.
During all this mess, RT has always pushed the view that Putin was liberating regions of Ukraine that had lawfully and democratically seceded from Ukraine and welcomed Russian troops. I don't call that very neutral
In many parts of the world you can live luxuriously for decades with $3M in assets.
It feels wrong to call what 99% of the world population can never expect to save, a "small amount".
Do you think Microsoft stock would be even near what it is today if it was led by Ballmer?

This is an extremely hard to imagine scenario...
I wonder how many “engineering” jobs actually require PE.

Biotech is an another counterexample to this: there’s no licensing requirement (though many jobs do require a masters or PhD) and the interviews also (mostly) aren’t quiz show lunacy. You usually talk about your past work and answer questions about how you’d approach new problems; no one makes you (say) sketch crystal structures on the board or recite the Krebs Cycle.

from what i read anti-war protesters in russia get arrested. so the threshold to show one’s disapproval with the invasion is fairly high.
The biggest thing it's made me realize is how weak my country (I'm not american) is. There is zero chance of us standing up the way Ukraine has, or of our leadership taking responsibility and leading the way Zelenskyy has. I know we may be getting a romanticized version though the media, but it's so far from what I think my country is capable of that I'm embarrassed and really am rethinking how we approach electing politicians.

I think its related, because the discourse ends up shifting to ridiculous and irrelevant problems, while we forget about and lose the ability to defend ourselves in even the most basic way.
From Russia's perspective they are.
Those functions don't require the most "high-end semiconductors".
Layman here but I believe even a wonderful algorithm requires constant babysitting (as to not accidentally blow up your account via a bug) and the algo may only have an edge for a limited time at which point you need to figure out a new edge for your algo or develop a new one all together which could takes weeks or months. OP has chosen to sell shovels for the gold rush and make some passive income rather than do the constant, back breaking work of digging for gold.
The problem with looking at OSS and publications is that this penalizes a lot of people with real lives outside of work. Especially problematic if you’re into equitable hiring processes aiming to hire people who aren’t in their 20’s anymore.

Looking at past work penalizes people who primarily have experience in large systems where their work is NDA’d, impossible to understand without a loooot of background, or simply unshareable for any number of reasons. Also really bad for new entrants into the industry. They don’t have past work.

The take-home exam penalizes people who have lives.

The “do smol thing together so we can talk about it” interview penalizes people with performance anxiety.

There is no silver bullet. But if I’d have to choose, I’d pick the least bad typical interview approach that judges everyone based on their performance on a small job-relevant task. At least you avoid a lot of bias.

source: I’ve interviewed over 100 engineers over the past 18 months as we scaled the engineering org roughly 3x. I honestly don’t even look at candidates’ resumes anymore (this is after initial screens have been made) because it always leads to bias.
I have a feeling, call it a hunch.

becuase the post adds nothing and is simply a post for the sake of posting.
Valid points, but considering the price of this service, it leaves me with little complaints.
China is already buying off ex Soviet satellites like Kyrgystan and Mongolia. Kazahstan is also economically dependent on China. If Japan is given any reason to rearm itself to the teeth again (like a Chinese invasion of Taiwan) and Russia breaks up, they'll almost certainly retake Sakhalin and Kurlil islands back. The rest will probably all become China satellites, except maybe for South Korea.
So far it has worked for 0 out of the 1 people we know who've tried it. Maybe it's not good advice
Rational at times

Nim itself never felt tinged to me back when I tried (and enjoyed) it. But I generally won't touch anything "crypto".

Fair enough (I guess). But if you work/play-with with Nim these days, and the libs available from https://nimble.directory/, do you feel you're "touching crypto"? If so, why?

huge number of crypto projects that are indistinguishable from Ponzis, vehicles for what would be a financial crime if done with regulated instruments, or just the counterproductive inclusion of a blockchain

There are groups that can extract refugees from war torn countries. The one I am familiar with and had some indirect association with in the past is IRC [1]. They will send people into extremely dangerous locations and extract people.

I think if I was to go for 9/10 I’d argue for 10/10 salaries because as you mention it’s practically indistinguishable
It sounds like you just lack context. These people aren’t adding any value to _your_ day but they are adding value to the business. They stay informed on the status of everything going on in their sphere and use that to keep key people informed and spot when things are going wrong.

Oh and another I forgot to mention that's a favorite is "Not another cooking show" by a NYC creator who perfectly makes videos of primarily Italian-American fare. Love the way he edits.
Before that Russia would need to actually lose the war, which is highly unlikely, considering Ukraine is fighting on its own..
Yes, and I've learned that mine wildly differ from those of Putin's.

Now that's two people, Microsoft nearly 200k, McDonald's closing in on 2 million. They're not the Borg Collective, and whether you like it or not, they're no longer just American.
Pretty cool. Would love to use Nim for scientific computing, but I am not sure how mature are, e.g., Neo (https://github.com/andreaferretti/neo) and alike. Any positive feedback?
Looks interesting yet we can't sign up so why advertise it?
Pretty interesting that the German re-unification is clearly mentioned has "having been a mistake", more exactly, it was a mistake that Russia (the Soviet Union, in fact) "allowed" it to happen. Lady Thatcher was of the same opinion, more or less. I don't know Russian but Google Translate did a pretty good job.
If it is completely trivial to fix the busted status quo you should be able to make a great deal of money doing so. Those companies you named exist to get people hired. If you have an alternative system that works you will be fishing from a different pool of candidates. That didn’t work for starfighter.io. If you can make it work for you you’ll get very rich.
“Digital Vegan contains 50 short chapters suitable for daily reading…”

Hey, just about right for this year’s Lent, in which I intend to closely examine my relationship with technology, because I can’t tell where “mommy brain” stops and where a deeper problem with attention and concentration driven by how I’m using the internet begins. I’m kicking it off with Carr’s “The Shallows,” but your book might be a good way to ensure I get through something every day.

> but not both at the same time.

For 20 years they could have afforded to. Now it may be too late. If they try I don’t think the market would punish them for it.

And in fact they are famous for killing their cash cow (memory) and focusing on the new thing (microprocessors) in the 80s under Grove. They have fallen far.

Other big companies, like Google, have this problem and haven’t made efforts to address it.
Life expectancy has been decreasing, and you'd keep those 3M invested (bond if not stocks) to fend off inflation.

3M is absolutely a mind-boggling amount. Ok, housing in San Francisco will eat most of that, but the vast majority of people in the world retire on way less than that
I was really, really hoping that this was going to be tutorials on how to use Photoshop to make graphics in the style of Leonard Da Vinci's Notebooks. But it very much wasn't
What the world can learn from Hong Kong is that her style of "resistance" is about as effective there as it was in the Spanish Civil War.
Also, "things will proceed to nuclear" means that you think Putin will initiate the end of human (and most plant) life on Earth.

Actually, I think the initiation will come from the US side. Read up on the Wolfowitz Doctrine. The US will not allow that they lose the 'Number One', 'Exceptional' crown and will do anything to prevent that.
How would the people of Norway revolt against their own country's sovereign wealth fund? Norway is a very small country with (I seem to remember) the largest wealth fund in the world due to investments of revenue from the oil industry. I highly doubt people there are going to perceive it as evil based on whether or not it's taking a particular stance on Apple's vesting plan.

They do have a tradition of taking stances on corporate governance as a matter of principle and this looks like that.
I calculated once that the cost of buying an intel chip is around double that of a similar performing AMD chip if you factor in the cost of electricity over a few years. Unfortunately for intel, their latest generation is still on very old 10nm technology while AMD is currently on 7nm and is going to 5nm soon. Because of their giant screw-ups with a sales and marketing CEO, Intel has fallen far behind with their own fabs, and power consumption has not improved at all. All they can do for now is sell their latest generation chips with a terrible profit margin in order to compete against AMD.
You can acknowledge opposite viewpoints and be biased at the same time.

I don't think anyone is claiming any state media anywhere as neutral. It's clear they are biased, but they might also show opposite viewpoints.

I think these are very biased propaganda outlets but they shouldn't be censored on our behalf by our leaders.

They will, though, and we all understand why. Because we cannot handle working out the truth ourselves.

misinformation spectre.
> So Android is hardly the best that Linux could make it as desktop.

Chrome OS Flex might be interesting when it does, eventually, support the linux environments.
If a croupier really was influencing the outcome of the spin, consciously or not, it would involve the exact moment when he dropped the ball. E.g. every time he would drop it in the area of the 10, it would end up in the area of the 3.
But in that case there is no point in observing previous roulette outcomes as was described in the article. You would have to observe the croupier instead and the moment he was dropping the ball.

Either the article is not describing accurately what happened or the whole story was BS. There is no way that a croupier or roulette wheel is influenced by the previous drop of the ball.

If you want to be really challenged, I'd highly recommend checking out The Tyranny of Science by Paul K. Feyerabend.[0] Whether you agree with the points made or not, you'll definitely learn a lot and realize a lot even from arguing against his points.

Same here, living in Berlin and the most frigthend signal was the move from Germany to up their budget for military operations. No one seems to recognize what a massive shift this is. Something you would just do if immediate and long-term danger is next door. Means, they see something which is definetely not in the news.

My partner is not from Germany and we are considering leaving the EU for now to sit this one out. At least go to a country where you can drive away and look for shelter in case of a radioactive blast.

It's difficult, since the few who forsee things stay alive, but if you actually prepare and nothing happens, you look dumb as fuck. I don't know what to do. If you don't have family and the means, look for a smaller EU island or maybe even the US or Canada for 6 months and work from there. At least there, you can find natural resources and water to survive.

Keep the MOEX tab open and see how hard Russia is getting hit in a few hours or all next week:

With these sanctions, Putin might actually have nothing left but send a warning shot. He can't go back to his country, trying and maybe failed to invade a neighbour, just to return empty handed and with the stock market close to 0, inflation and the Rubel basically worthless.

EDIT: I think this goes into the wrong direction: https://www.euronews.com/2022/02/27/ukraine-is-one-of-us-and...

So Putin is so angry and feels threatend that he wants to overthrough Ukraine, and the answer is to make them a member of the EU? This screams like more aggressives answers from Putin. I personally expect a smaller nuclear warning shot over the ocean from Putin next week.
> How do I, as someone who’s not Chinese—I’m half Japanese, I grew up in the U.S.—write all this stuff about Chinese recipes with any authority? Why should people trust me? And why is it O.K. for me to be doing this?

Why do the Chinese get to wield supreme executive authority over throwing some random ingredients into a thin pan on high heat? What kind of Food Holocaust do people think is going to happen if some random food blogger who isn't Chinese writes about woks? Chinese food (as if you could say exactly what is and isn't Real Chinese Food without starting a Food Holy War) isn't going to be obliterated by it.

The whole cultural appropriation thing is dead to me at this point. Yes, your book's sales might tank if some lunatic with millions of fans decides to excoriate you for being ignorant or disrespectful to some cultural trope like "the right way to stir-fry" or something. But they might also ignore you. I don't think it's worth giving yourself anxiety just to make sure you "have the right" to write about some subject. Just try to be a good person, do your work, and stay off of Twitter.
I don't know if they completely sold all their investments in Saudi Arabia, but they sold down drastically a couple of years ago.
You're talking about different things. A slow FET has a slow rise time. It spends more time crossing through the inefficient region between fully off and fully on. Switching frequency is how often you cross in one direction.

Up to a point, you can decrease total converter loss by trading conduction loss for switching loss by increasing frequency and resizing components. After that point, you start losing efficiency again. There's a sweet spot.
Hopefully the strategy teams at these large semiconductor companies are aware of the Bullwhip Effect [0] and the investments we're seeing are being done with that knowledge already in hand.

IMO the more interesting part of this article is the prediction that a bifurcation will take place. Still a good thing, but interesting that, as of now, most media talks about the "chip shortage" in terms of "Is there a shortage or not?" rather than a more complex model.

I think this is a discovery problem, although I don't know your subjective idea of a really good title. I'd say I have more good games than I can reasonably play, some with near-infinite replayability thanks to human opponents and a chess-like complexity of outcomes.

There's a lot of cookie cutter uninspired money grubbing crap from big studios and small, but go find what people are playing by numbers, dig past the AAA shovelware, and there are plenty of gems.
Not sure about South Korea, but Taiwan's democracy is kind of a joke. Since the end of the WW2, the grand total of the number of parties holding power is...two - DPP and KMT.

There are no differences between them in foreign affairs. Both favor wage suppression policies. Both favor currency manipulation to suppress consumption in order to help exporters. None of them is doing anything about the worst housing crisis in the world, leading to a demographic suicide of the country - fertility rate is below 1.3 for 20 years and counting. In many way, it's a choice between Pepsi and Coca-cola
20 years ago I was developing software for Windows 98. Recently I tried to run some of the programs on Linux and they still all ran fine unchanged.

But the things I wrote for Linux need permanent updates because they break some function change. Especially major versions changes qt4 to qt5 or gtk2 to gtk3...
BP and others could be still be paid from confiscated Russian assets in Europe.
GitHub also makes FOSS rent its web presence from Microsoft.
I am. There is a real danger of going WW3.

Putin lives in another universe, he doesn't live in reality anymore.

He gambled before and won (Georgia, Syria, Chechnya).

If he gains something out of this gamble he will only bet heavier and more dangerously the next time. Gangsters never have enough.

OTOH, if he sees he will loose this gamble he will probably go full ballistic, in a nuke way, because will have nothing to loose.

There's no nice outcome out of this disgrace. The guy is a megalomaniac psychopath.
More than a decade ago South Park had the same exact topic covered where Cartman suddenly "develops tics" and the doctors are confused why he got it when he was much older.

Cartman is just mimicking other people with tourettes for attention
I think there's also a change in the server market where there's going to be (already is?) two pillars.

So cloud vendors can pressure Intel/AMD into exclusive features, or turning off features they don't like, etc. Where Dell/HP/others increasingly lose that kind of leverage.

Basically less of the vendor leverage bubbling down to normal end user owners of hardware.
The argument about medical expenses doesn't make any sense: it's more profitable to have sick people living longer and increare their medical expenses. The failure of the American healthcare system is proof that a market economy is not fit for healthcare.

Profitable for who, exactly? Companies, individuals, the state, or whole society? For that matter, which companies are we talking about?
Great resumé. With luck Apple will address these: I’ve been curious about moving my domains from Google and Apple seemed like a good choice for me, but these would be show-stoppers for me as well.
Yeah, being overweight, having hypogonadism and eating a low calorie diet can result in no weight loss or even weight gain. The energy distribution is all over the place and the lack of calories affects cognition, hormone production etc.

If you were a "good" vegan, as you mentioned, I cannot imagine what kind of foods you ate to have more calories compared to fat (calorie) rich foods like fish, mussels or meat.

500 grams of raw beans is 2000kcal (very little for an avg 45 year old man), contains about 120g of protein, but is around 1.5kg of beanwater sludge when cooked. Impossible to eat in a day for most people. Adding rice, pasta, or other sources of calories still does not help a lot. It takes a lot of food to get to 2500-3000kcal.

Many vegans lack calories in their diet. Older and sedentary vegans that are starting to develop protein resistance (due to age or sedentary lifestyle) also consume way too little protein. A perfect recipe for various metabolic issues and aging related diseases.
I don't know how much absolute power Putin has. Can he successfully launch a first strike attack? Would his circle and the chain of command follow the order promptly or is there a decent chance of a coup? I'd assume that at least some powerful oligarchs wouldn't be in favor of a nuclear war.

What's new is old again. But can you plug it into an old B&W TV?
Tech interview discussions always seem to run the same course and hit the same points, so I'll repeat one of mine:

What's wrong with the idea of turning the standard Leetcode algorithms interview into a license that only needs to be completed once, or maybe once every 5-8 years, similar to what physicians must undergo? Much more efficient than having to retake it with every single company during an interview cycle.
It's not really primitive by intent but it's quite primitive in reality because of the drastic constraints on the original target platform. So yes, things like resources are a place where intent and implementation are relatively close but much of the rest of it isn't. Consider that System 6/7 are of the same vintage as Nextstep and the Nextstep model is still in very wide practical use today.
I think it's wise to prepare and keep an eye on the news to know when to trigger your fight (or flight) plan. Panicking won't help.

As far as I'm concerned, it has reinforced my priorities, altered them slightly too. I think it's a good opportunity to reassess your objectives in life, if anything.

Anyway, off to bed early today, so I have more time to do what matters to me tomorrow. Can't wait to see my favourite muddy poney again :)
