There's two related, but slightly different, things that we're discussing here I think.

I think that, broadly speaking, such people do deserve sympathy from society as a whole. That is a different question as to whether or not they deserve your particular sympathy or attention. Much like how I agree that fire fighters are a good idea, but would look at you as though you were brain damaged if you suggested I run in and fight fires. People can be entitled to sympathy and understanding and you are also allowed to have your own boundaries, strengths, etc. (Or even just not like supporting people emotionally. That's fine.) Or hell, maybe this topic is just boring to you and you're sick of it taking over everything. That's also understandable.

> I'd expect the same for anyone's opinion of my situation if something horrible and unforeseen were to happen to me.

I don't often tell people their views of themselves are wrong (because how the hell would I know?), but this made me wince, because it's like talking to myself 10 years ago. It's one thing to say this, it's another when it actually happens.

I'll also submit that it's easy to say that about yourself, but it's going to be much harder if it's say, something horrible and unforeseen happening to (for example) your child or spouse. Basically, life is a giant game of Russian Roulette, and while some of us have guns with more bullets in the chamber, nobody has zero.

Emancipation of the Dalit Muslims hasn't yet occurred, Hindu-Muslim binary contributes to this oppression of Pasmanda and Dalit/ lower caste Muslims.

The oppressor can never understand the pain of the oppressed. How many lower caste Muslims ruled India? Why 90% of the Muslims politicians are upper caste ashrafs/syeeds? Ashraf hegemony must end.
This was merely a rhetoric question: It's not going to help with out current problem.
There are plenty of GUI solutions that are robust enough for an embedded GUI or some WebAssembly stuff. For native (desktop) applications the rust ecosystem still has a long way to go.

Would you kindly clarify this? Did you mean scan in handwritten material but save it in a scalable image format like SVG? I'm quite interested but maybe i'm not capturing what you mean here, because i have not had my breakfast. :-)
War is looking pretty popular here too, because of propaganda on TV.
Some interesting parts:

> Every Kremlin ruler knows that one of the quickest ways to end a Russian dynasty or regime is to lose a war.

> In October, Rasputitsa turns firm ground into mud. In March, the frozen steppes thaw, and the land again becomes at best a bog, and at worst a sea of mud.

> The key to thwarting Russian ambitions is to prevent Moscow from having a quick victory and to raise the economic, political, and military costs by imposing economic sanctions, ensuring political isolation from the West, and raising the prospect of a prolonged insurgency that grinds away the Russian military. In this war, Russia might have the watches, but the West and Ukraine may have the time.
Strict URPF cannot be applied to any customer that might be multihomed, which rules out any BGP customer or peer.

The reason is that multi-homed networks are not required to, and often do not advertise the same routes to all of their BGP peers. This may be done for routing policy purposes, traffic engineering, or simply to mitigate a temporary performance problem/outage with one of your transit providers/peers.

This means that strict URPF has to be deployed on the many networks that are close to statically routed end users. However, even statically routed customers could be multihomed and send traffic asymmetrically. This is not common but could cause headaches for support - even if you make an exception it could get accidentally overridden in the future.

On my networks (data center/hosting) we configure strict URPF on statically routed customers by default but not for BGP customers.
Okay, but aside from building bridges and annoying modern developers, what else have the Romans ever done for us?
I really can’t wrap my head around an argument that amounts to “that person only succeeded on the test because they put in the time and effort to learn the material and their hard work is the primary thing that separated their performance from this other person; if that other person would have tried, they could have done just as well; that’s not a meritocracy!”
In the consumer space the trends I'm following are more aligned to the various 5G spectrum roll-outs. I think there's an approaching inflection point where consumers will be routing (or be QOS'ed) by their Telco ISPs to either a fiber network or wireless.

I imagine telco consumer routers becoming a MEP.

Autocracies around the world now know our dirty secret: democracies are stupid. Just wait a while, and even the strongest democracy will chase its own tail to exhaustion. And you will have a free hand to remake the world to your liking.

(Of course, Putin's invasion of Ukraine is its own variety of stupid, but not quite the same one.)

> Should fighting continue into March, mechanized forces would have to deal with the infamous Rasputitsa, or thaw.”

That's a key point. It does go to show that the Russians expected this to be a very short affair. I wonder if they have any real contingency plans for when that thaw sets in.

There's dedicated services for almost everything these days. A cheap PA is a generalist, probably not very good. If you want to talk to contractors, go through an agency that handles that. If you want someone to do laundry and fold it nicely, there are cleaners. If you want someone to pick out nice clothes for you, there's personal shoppers. And so on. Mturk and fiverr handles a lot too.

A good PA, the type who can read your mind, would also be making really good money. They'd be about the rate of a lawyer or so. I've dealt with people who had dumb PAs and they were just really frustrating.

A good part of the Four Hour Workweek covers on how to utilize virtual assistants, and there was a boom in PA demand shortly after that. But it's receded since.

I've hired people to do stuff like research a good mouse for me and it was great. But you miss out on the satisfaction of doing such things. I mean I could get GPT-3 to write a perfectly good comment in HN from just bullet points, for about 6 cents. But where's the fun in that?
With things like the Iron Dome and Patriot Missile System I'm certain the US has the capability to knock some number of incoming nuclear weapons out of the sky. People in rural and even suburban areas in the US will probably be fine, maybe lose a few years life expectancy due to cancers and the like.
Take a look at the book Live not by lies to understand what is coming.

We used to value truth and individual responsibilities and we are moving in the direction of group/class thinking.

Judging people by the ’group’ or race they belong is going to end badly, I wonder if there is examples where this thinking lead to good outcomes.

$XDG_CACHE_HOME makes sense as having a directory that you can just blow away without fear but the $XDG_DATA_HOME / $XDG_CONFIG_HOME split, while not entirely unjustified, causes more problems than it solves because a) it is not always clear what is data and what is config, b) peeople disagree on what is data and what is config and c) other operating systems don't make this distinction for application files so ported software is almost guaranteed to just pick one and call it a day - so in practice you have both config and other data spread between ~/.local/share and ~/.config.

Two things come to my mind.

1 - What is the ROI on the Reddit ads? Maybe it's worth spending $30/day on Reddit rather than splitting between that and a platform with -100% ROI. You need to reach a certain threshold of traffic before you can reliable start testing the ad copy, the offer, funnel, etc.

2 - Where are you sending the ad clicks? If you're just sending them to your website, you might as well just be burning the money to keep warm. Make sure you have a single-purpose landing page where the only goal is to get them to sign up, buy, whatever your goal is. No header; no menu; everything on one fast-loading, minimal-to-no-JS page. You're paying for the traffic, you only care if they convert or not. Convert in this sense might be paying for something, or more likely signing up for an email list or "more information."
That's some great open-source intelligence. High quality!

The bank only knows the value of the coin(s) you bought, not the identity, and, apparently this seems enough to fulfill those regulations?

"Forgetting Your Customer" is *not* how you comply with "Know Your Customer".

Do you have any reference to how your blinding/unblinding supposedly works? Is it even mathematically possible to *insure* your identity is forgotten --- while still maintaining verifiable coin/transaction validity?

Without some such insurance, you're operating on blind trust and assumption. And you know what happens when you *assume* too much?

And in addition might have recorded serial numbers of the banknotes...

Except in very specific, pre-arranged circumstances (such as a ransom demand) they don't bother recording serial numbers --- simply because the info is quickly rendered obsolete and useless from the way cash is freely exchanged and "mixed" in the marketplace.

Cash is typically considered untraceable and is the ultimate physical form of anonymity. It neither requires nor provides any identity info. Gift cards purchased with cash are the ultimate form of digital anonymity. Neither of these conform to KYC.

The base objective of AML and KYC is to eliminate anonymity from transactions. Compliance is generally not possible otherwise.
I agree, although I had a slightly different view of Stoicism.

I always viewed Stoicism as a kind of Spock-like attitude. You can think rationally about something and not give in to emotions.

In this context I view it as being able to think clearly about what to do or reflect on it, but not give in to fear, anger or other emotions.
Yeah? I wrote something to deal with it too (https://github.com/toastal/return-optics) 5.5 years ago. You arguably chose the wrong data as `(model, Cmd msg, Maybe extMsg)` instead of `(model, Cmd msg, List extMsg)` which would give you more flexibility and still functions as a monoid on [] instead of Nothing, but allows multiple messages shrug. I tried this approach more recently and it involved me having to encode all of actions in a massive tree and then I still had issues with certain messages including now having to UUID all elements that that previously I didn't need to think about. It was a mess, but the best I could do with the tools at hand.

If you compare this to Halogen (https://github.com/purescript-halogen/purescript-halogen/blo...) where you still have purity but can set up subscribers and listeners from any component. It's much easier to use and for some components like dialogs, it's much simpler. And this actually isn't the best example because with the latest Halogen, Portals (https://github.com/purescript-halogen/purescript-halogen/pul...) was introduced so you can launch a dialog on the spot instead of even needing to communicate between them at all.

This is my anecdote though. And I've been away from Elm long enough now (around 1.5 years) that I've forgotten all the specifics.
Market segmentation exists. RISC-V being open means it's also open to ARM. You may, in the future, pay ARM to license a SoC that's a RISC-V ISA core or four with their tried-and-true peripheral cores and maybe a couple of M0 cores to boot.
Ask HN: Does social class determine who becomes expats?
^ Anecdotally I believe it occurs in a much lower amount, I haven't seen it at all as an Indian Muslim.

Just read the oppression Indian lower caste untouchable Muslims face in India.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pasmanda_Muslim_Mahaz

Upper caste dominant ashraf/sayeed Muslims in India have tried to label the people of the Mahaz as "un-Islamic heretics", which is a form of propaganda against them. Same is the case in Pakistan.

We all are Muslims and we don't have castes. Unless it's about an upper-caste Muslim woman marrying a lower caste untouchable muslim.

Ask HN: Why wasn't the USA sanctioned over it's war with Iraq?
I do not want to minimize the seriousness of what is happening in the Ukraine. I would just like to know what the difference is between these two actions.
The Iraq War(v2) resulted in hundreds of thousands Iraqi deaths (some estimate over a million). Given that we know that the USA reasoning for going to war with Iraq was based on misleading evidence, we could (and should) consider that each one of those Iraqi deaths to be unnescessary.
Web Developers Form Advocacy Group to Allow Other Browser Engines on iOS
> Once there is a casus belli, cyberattacks will likely follow to degrade Ukraine’s military command and control systems and public communications and electrical grids. Next, kinetic operations will likely begin with air and missile strikes against Ukraine’s air force and air defense systems. Once air superiority is established, Russian ground forces would move forward, slightly preceded by special operations to degrade further command and control capabilities and delay the mobilization of reserves by conducting bombings, assassinations, and sabotage operations.

The Russian commandants were so sure about their chances that they didn't wait for air superiority.

Or, they didn't want to be seen as an invader but a liberator and as we know that failed terribly.

It cracks me up that this many years later, you put five people in a room to establish a git branch/merge/release strategy, and you get five very different opinions, and such strong opinions they are.

Luckily, that responsibility is not in my wheelhouse, I just have to live with whatever decisions are made.

Build an Economy from the Middle Out
Right now, we have things like Android Studio and npm which are absolute bandwidth hogs. I'm sure a use will come for more bandwidth. I never thought I'd need anything past 1 Mbps, but it can be the bottleneck for build times now.

One thing I didn't have enough bandwidth for was doing a presentation on Google Meet to a group of people, presenting a 4K screen. I suspect it does several 1 to 1 connections, rather than broadcasting, which would explain the drop in performance when presenting to a group.

> And they act like the cost makes it unattainable for anyone else. But it’s a few thousand dollars if that (as low as under $1,000) which is reachable to all but destitute families

This strikes me as extremely out of touch. I would think this cost is unattainable for a large chunk of American families.

If it were true, and the cost was so clearly worth it, then why isn't every kid in America doing test prep?
How Fast Can We Write a 10M Row CSV to a Postgres Database with Pandas?
Yeah I suppose it comes down to what people are expected to actually do with the information.

It's one thing to have a message "if you get covid, and come out OK, the silver lining is some ongoing immunity".

I'm not sure there's any other take: "get covid to avoid getting covid" doesn't really work.

Finally I imagine there's a bit of ongoing analysis, the science on antibodies and other immune responses vs actual real world protection perhaps not concluded. Not least due to the future emergence of new variants which could substantially change things for either the better or for the worse.

You can bully over and over again but at some point the most cowardly person will snap.

Still, if the Ukrainians wouldn't have shown tremendous defense capabilities, the West probably wouldn't have shown such a swift reaction.
That sounds like ADHD.
Knowledge that comes as second nature can also be referred to as tacit knowledge, and is not usually written down for a variety of reasons.

The ‘surprising’ part in my end comes from being jaded with how shallow so much media is today. It was refreshing to see details like this written down because it’s simultaneously obvious and true, and it lends credence to their analysis.
It would be almost ironic if, of all the armies in the world, the Russians would be caught unprepared by Rasputitsa. And quite embarrassing, to be honest.
> Umm, ARM has the share in the phone market where Intel/ AMD couldn't make a dent...

Yes, obviously, which I mentioned repeatedly. For ARM to be successful outside of embedded it took an entirely new category of device to appear. What's RISC-V's entirely new category of device where it happens to be uniquely positioned?

> It's a matter of time other shares will be eaten when x86 is having hard time innovating over its decades old design.

Based off of what? The only ARM CPU that isn't thoroughly outclassed by AMD & Intel's x86 CPUs is Apple's, and Apple sure isn't licensing that to anyone. And so far every time ARM has tried to enter the domain of x86 it's been either absolutely embarrassingly bad (laptops) or mediocre at best and only for the very latest generation at that (servers)

> less electricity bill for cloud vendors

ARM server CPUs have the ~same 250W TDPs of Intel & AMD server CPUs. There's no power savings to be had here.
That is more due to those tanks being driven by human beings than any restraint from the leadership. You can tell your tankers to ignore any civilians lying prostrate before their tracks but that does not mean they'll just follow orders - and thank ${deity} for this.
> How do you know which is true? Are you just assuming Western sources are true and any contradiction is evidence of a lie?

RT and its friends have a pretty well documented history of deliberately and strategically spreading lies and disinformation (e.g. when MH17 was shot down, they sprung into action spreading all kinds of lies and conspiracy theories to obscure the Russian involvement). Western sources may get things wrong from time to time, but they're at least trying to get things right.

This is absolutely something to ask your lawyer. If you just leave this in limbo and hope it goes away, it could cause huge problems for you down the line.

In particular it might be problematic that you have actively worked to prevent the investor from paying you. You definitely need to talk to your lawyer about how to resolve this in a way that protects your company from an ugly, messy lawsuit down the road.
