Yeah, such claims demand sources. For the most part, the orphans were caged. However I wouldn't be surprised if many were killed. The stigma for war orphans in Japan was pretty intense. There is no telling how many were killed outright since nobody cared to document it.

The actual, not so secret now, secret sauce for wordle is the instant recognizability of its "game outcome" (I don't know what to call the green, yellow and gray emojis). This might do the same by instead of telling everyone all these details about score, publish the final status of the board. I think that would instantly tell someone how far one got etc.
In that case, I believe my response answers your question.
Pedant nit: Intel and AMD CPUs also both have mandatory signed firmware with higher privilege levels[0] than Linux. Blame enterprises that want owner-operated backdoors into their own system.

It's still not as egregious as Nvidia's though, which is specifically designed as a defeat device to frustrate the use of third-party drivers. You at least don't need ME/PSP access to boot into a Free OS.

[0] ME/PSP are technically separate processors, but they have full control over the x86 cores. Their firmware can be minimized but they are integral to the boot process and enforce code signing on the BIOS. Speaking of, the BIOS gets to load into SMM, which has been around since the 386 and runs above both ring 0 and hypervisors.
This is an intensely US-centric perspective.

If the West includes new joiners from behind the Iron Curtain, then let me tell you that any "demonisation" of Russia is deserved.

I'm too young to have experienced the communist times, but based on what I heard from my parents and from history, being a forcible subject to Russia sucks. And this is exactly what Russia is trying to achieve in Ukraine (if not just outright destruction instead).

I was willing to give Russia a loan of trust and see how its post-USSR identity evolved. Unfortunately, it seems like that hope wasn't met with reality.

> electricity is generally an order of magnitude cheaper

Electricity is not an order of magnitude cheaper.

You can figure on getting about 4 miles per kWh. Where I live, the kWh delivered is $0.20, so $0.05 per mile for energy.

A gas car getting 25 miles per gallon with a gallon costing $4.00/gal (slightly more than it costs around here) costs $0.08 per mile for energy.

If you could buy electricity for half of my price, you'd be $0.025 per mile, meaning a 25mpg car would need to be buying $6/gal gas in order for electricity to be an order of magnitude cheaper.
I am a native of romania, gave up my citizenship for obvious reasons. Regular citizens have indeed stepped in. However, the government actively discourages arrivals from ukraine, and while the prime
minister claimed they made preparations for half a million ukranians, that has proven to be false [1]. In effect, its mainly those of us that donated that helped ukranians, because tax payers money surely didnt.

The reason i chose romania while not directly stating that op is from that country, at least by user name, is because i didnt want it to turn into a personal thing.

I find it appalling that some will show ignorance, considering that romania is essentially financed by the western world. Even during this conflict romania’s only defense is nato, because the country lacks a proper army. We all know why and we all know that wont change. The expectation being that they (nato, us, eu) will “come and do it for us” and i simply dont share that mindset.

Having said that, some in romania have contributed to the country’s neighbour aid, while some simply dont care. But they do have a sense of entitlement. For instance, I am not entirely sure why you’d expect help from your neighbours given the above. Romania needs to be able to defend on its own and help those in need on its own before expecting handouts from pretty much everyone else, and now is the time to do it.

1. https://romania.europalibera.org/amp/31720871.html

Edit: grammar and all sorts. Bored of explaining fellow romanians that contributing to refugees is a duty and not an option. Romania is on the eternal receiving side and sometimes we have to contribute as well. Government wont, thus its up to regular folk. Glad that op and paganel are happy to rip the PR benefits from those that did contribute to this crisis.

>I think its fairly safe to assume that the majority of that cloud revenue is from their Cloud Platform, not Workplaces.

I'm not sure I'd make that assumtion. Google workplaces makes a lot of revenue. $20/user/month * 100k users in a large company is 24MM/year. I'm sure GCP will grow faster, but Google workplaces has had more market penetration for longer.

That's not my position at all. You cut context.

You and I agree here.

Would you say Russia has free and fair elections? Their election only months ago did provide a supermajority of seats.

If yes, would you agree than the average Russian supports Putin and the war?

This is basically whataboutism. I don't consider myself well informed enough on any Middle Eastern conflicts, but if I found anything objectionable there, I'm happy to call out both the US and Russia on their BS.

BTW, "NATO expansion" was there for a reason, and you don't get to claim that the new members didn't want to join of their own initiative. Every post-communist country that wants to keep their self-determination is worried about falling back into being Russian puppets once more.

That doesn't sound right. I live in MN and my 17 year-old Nissan 350Z will happily start in -20F as long as the battery is in good shape. Any of those vehicles you mention (unless the 4Runner is old enough to still have a carbureted 22R) should start up just fine at -10F.
But you could have made a similar critique of PDF 30 years ago: it started as a proprietary format vastly more complicated and fragile than plain text documents. Plain text documents had existed for decades and would continue to exist. Nonetheless, the benefits of the then-new PDF format were so great that it was eventually standardized.
> If it weren't for the Switch innovating in this form factor, I doubt that the mobile console form factor would exist at all today (except maybe for those shells where you plop your phone into to get a D-pad for your mobile game).

> If we want to cut down on e-waste, we should rather lengthen the smartphone replacement cycle. That's a better impact just because of sheer numbers. Lobby for replaceable-battery mandates in smartphones and a minimum duration for security updates of 5 years or even 10 years.

Why not both? Disposable devices are bad, needing duplicate devices in the same form factor is bad, DRM is bad (especially when it's locking down how you can use or repair your own hardware). Tackling one doesn't prevent anyone from tackling the rest. We need to fix all of them

> Because there aren’t any TB docks that support 3x displays when pushing > 4k; I’m unclear if it’s technically possible.

It’s not technically possible given the bandwidth available on a TB3/TB4 port. 5K display requires 22Gbps, the port overall is limited to 40Gbps, so not possible to get more than one on a single cable. Due to the way TB uses the available lanes in the cable, it’s also not possible to my knowledge to support a USB-C 4K monitor daisy chained off a 5K monitor either even though there’s sufficient bandwidth (22 + 15 < 40) to do so.

Thunderbolt 5 w/ it’s supposed 80Gbps support will change that.

> try to buy a consumer-grade TV that doesn't show ads or spy on you

I haven't bought a consumer TV since... well, actually, I just haven't ever actually bought one except second-hand non-smart TVs a decade ago. Is it literally that bad? i.e. does everything show ads? Can you root these machines and/or install non-ad-based apps instead?
Why not clean up all of these corner cases so that the answer is obvious from reading it, and release it as some fork of C?
Any kind of bias like that is potentially exploitable, though. If the rule allows "only numeric", and that's the simplest thing to implement, then someone's going to implement it that way.

Which means that an attacker now knows that moving "only numeric" to the beginning of their attack sequence may be a viable strategy. Whereas if the rule did not specify, the attack would not be able to make assumptions about the character set.

Rating other people's comments, what a delightful blast from the past! Are you posting from Digg in 2005?
1. In my liberal tech social circles, I hear so much talk about "eating the rich" and how the wealthy and privileged are ruining society that I'd be insane to self identify as anything but middle class.

2. It's all relative anyways. By HN standards I'm making a measly salary, but my salary is over double the national average.

3. The richer you are, the more likely people are to ask you for things. Money, favors, etc. This is both locally and globally true.

4. Some of it is a mindset. Growing up I was absolutely not poor, but the way my parents talked about money felt different from others. For example I didn't get a cell phone until the end of middle school because it was "too expensive". Everyone was always asking for my phone number and I had to tell them I didn't have a phone. In the grand scheme of things this is really inconsequential, but at 13 it felt like my parents were ruining my social life with their penny pinching.

Cars were another big thing. Our cars were ancient and my parents refused to buy new ones. We never went to a mechanic unless we absolutely had to. On Saturday mornings my dad would wake me up and tell me we were doing $X to the car and I knew I would be cancelling any plans that day. I didn't actually mind fixing the car, but I hated telling my friends "I can't go play basketball, I have to help fix the car" and having them wonder aloud "Why can't you just take it to a mechanic?" because it made me feel poor.
Yeah, even if it was true, it means the Russian paratroopers were using the hangar as shelter from Ukrainian counterattacks after they violently seized the airport.

(my understanding is all these paratroopers were shortly eliminated, so it was a huge waste of life all around)

How will unions help protect you from the laws of supply and demand? How will it protect you from outsourcing?

What protects you from workplace discrimination and harassment are laws. Besides, no one is crazy enough to say “we aren’t going to hire you or promote you because you’re Black (I am)”

You know how I got to the position where I could say “fuck you i quit” within three years after I graduated? By working my ass off, networking like crazy and interview prep. How is a union going to help me get or keep a job?

Phantom breaking happened to me 3 times when I test drove a Model Y on CO-470 in Colorado near the Park Meadows mall last year. I was keenly aware of my surroundings as this was the first time driving a Tesla; the roads were clear, no obstructions that I could connect the dots on. I'm very thankful I wasn't rear-ended any of the times. I was pretty disappointed as I always had been a fan of the concept of self-driving cars and Tesla in general. After bringing up the behavior with the Sales associate he stated it was a known issue on CO-470 and they were working on a fix.

I spent last year creating a meetup competitor but also got stumped on monetisation. It's a difficult problem since you can't really charge new users since they don't know what value they'll get (plus you want events to get lots of sign ups to look popular), and also charging admins makes it expensive to start groups. You can't do this either while gaining traction since you want groups & events.

So there's no early way to revenue, and since Meetup is probably only worth about $50m (ignoring the $200m it was sold for to that office company that was desperate it IPO), it'd be a struggle to get funding for marketing while you're gaining traction, since ultimately the market leader isn't worth much.

My app added some important missing features over meetup, but they'd be expensive to run. I'd strip them out but then I'd just have plain old (but empty) meetup again... so I think it's difficult to innovate in this area.
That's ok. But I think for private projects something like this is fine. That's why I meant that even if it disappears it doesn't matter.

I would definitely not use something like this commercially.

Yes, I would do exactly this. At one company, I just kept adding dots on the end for each 3 month "rotation." I didn't stay there long. I think I got to 3 dots.
"Normal people" may not care, but enough of us early adopters / tech savvy people do care to have some impact here. Facebook's reputation is so deep in the gutter that some people will never purchase anything from them (I count myself among those ranks).

VR's widespread adoption has been "right around the corner" for at least a decade now, but it keeps failing to actually materialize. These things are niche gaming peripherals still, and proponents can ill afford to ignore potential users if they really want to reach ubiquity.

Zelda isn't really a role playing game. You don't get to speak. Few, if any NPCs can be attacked. Pretty much everyone is friendly. It's not exactly trying to go for realism.
I hate to break it to the author but peole lie about pretty much everything.

People will lie about their incomes on anonymous surveys. People lie in anonymous polls about their voting intent. You can boil this down to:

1. People lying to themselves and then reflecting that lie to others. A common one I see here is, for example, "it only takes me 30 minutes on the bus to get from SF to work". At 1am on a Tuesday with a tailwind maybe. It's a form of cognitive dissonance; and

2. People lying to others. This is for personal gain and because the person cares about how they're perceived by others.

So if you take an example from the post (eg working class family background) it could be either. I've known people who really believe they're working class heroes but they're clearly middle class. It can be woven into their identity. It can just be virtue signaling. It can be to fit in. It can be aspirational.

The 2000 election had Al Gore vilify the "top 1%". A survey at the time found that 19% of people thought they were the top 1% and another 20% thought they would be some day. So with this lie they've told themselves (knowingly or not) you've dended up alienating 39% of voters.

Ultimately though a lot of these lies can be reduced to people feeling good about themselves even if that means making other people look bad.

A lot of social media is built on such "flexing". Instagram in particular. Even Tiktok has all these videos where people post these "how am I so amazing?" videos. You just need to realize it's pretty much all lies.

Oh and as for this specific example from the post (ie fetishization of a working-class background in the UK) this is interesting because my experience in the UK was there's a lot of value in signaling your upper class background, how you went to Oxford, Cambridge or Eton, the BBC accent (now this is really the modern RP accent) and so on.

The UK is still quite classist (IME). Up until 20-30 years ago, university applications asked your father's occupation.

> Paradoxically, working in tech is seen as somewhat low-class.

Fussell (though writing about the US) may have some insight here. For one thing, working is kinda low-class; for another, being concerned about the latest-and-greatest of technology is, separately, kinda low-class. He writes (I'm paraphrasing) that American old money is more likely to drive a 30-year-old truck, to have ancient kitchen appliances, maybe even fairly old entertainment-related electronics, than to have a flashy new sports car and top-end appliances—because caring about new technology is "low", so is something those sorts of people have been socialized not to care about (much of it's the "help's" problem, anyway, after all).

The US has a similar thing going on, along the "working/professional/upper" axis: many programmers make "professional" levels of money (e.g. doctor, lawyer, upper management at mid-level corporations, that kind of thing) but as a society we seem to have decided it's not proper to treat them as professionals, so they remain working-class in many respects (along with actual engineers).

Yeah, outer portions of Minnesota avoid using salt near wetlands as well- most states do, I think. You have to get pretty far into northern latitudes before salt stops working well enough to abandon it, though. Mixing sand or grit helps warm it up in direct sunlight enough that it can still be beneficial below zero F.
Our red line is NATO, same as it always was. And will Russia have greater or lesser capability to wage war in a year or two, with their economy ruined by sanctions? Dependence on international trade today is far greater than anyone could have dreamed in the 1930s, and it's dangerous to try to force historical analogies that simply don't hold up under scrutiny.
