So you're saying the domain is simpler while still satisfying the client's requirements? I think that's exactly the OP's point.
Why sanctions won't topple the regime in Russia
We should also keep in mind the author is not a disinterested party: the author is a blogger. Not a scientist, not a virologist. They profit from clicks, and you don't get clicks for suggesting that the best available evidence is - surprise - the best available evidence, and will probably turn out to be right.

But since the author will never actually be held to account for being wrong, and certainly isn't putting any money where his mouth is, here we are.
What do you all see as missing from this document? How about the security of apps and of 3rd party update services? Every app that has internet access is a potential vulnerability for the whole network, a direct route to the inside. And we've also seen recently that 3rd party software update services can compromise everything. Are those not considered part of "Network Infrastructure Security"? If you're talking about defense in depth you can't limit the discussion to just the wired network hardware itself because there are all sorts of other things that can compromise the network (insider attacks, BYOD, compromised hardware, phishing, blackmail). You could follow every single step in this document perfectly and your network may still be easily compromised. There's no mention of wireless networks either. Your network could be compromised via an open Bluetooth interface. This also seems like a very Cisco oriented document.
> When I think of a classic technocratic decision, I think of Margaret Thatcher closing down coal mines while crushing any union resistance, a technocrat-approved decision, and it significantly aided the economic success of Britain under Thatcher.

It is absolutely not a resolved matter that Thatcher's assault on the NUM significantly aided "the economic success of Britain".

Britain under Thatcher was a dismal and glum place. I left in 1989 and it only by revisiting various documentaries that I have come to realize what a shithole she helped make many parts of the country during her tenure. The fact that the City of London (the UK's Wall St.) did very well during this time in no way lets her off the hook for what her leadership did to most of the UK.

That's a really important point, one I should have thought of. So maybe these changes would be advantageous even in Simon's intended use case.

Probably characters that aren't * and | could be friendlier for filenames.

I don't know that preserving lexicographical ordering is important, though it might be handy if you're storing things in LevelDB or something. I just have a soft spot for homomorphisms over the free monoid.
Consider CBD. It knocks me out if I'm restless. You'll likely want pure CBD, which doesn't get you high. Just chilled out. Worrying about your perfect 8 is probably making things worse, so finding place of peace regarding sleep will also help. But CBD is probably the quick and dirty solution.
I thought this article, or at least the title and the thesis of the article is quite poorly written. None of what he wrote has anything to do with "other types of professionals".

Although I agree with most of his complains.
Nation Geographic's Trafficked has a fascinating episode on the stolen car market. The episode follows cars that are shipped out of the port of New Jersey to Ghana and documents just how organized the operations are.

Your understanding is correct atm. USA offers «concern” and “support”, colors airport in Ukraine’s flag (SFO). But they still must have visa, insurance, and Covid test to enter. My family were even asked why they don’t have return tickets.

Yes, but that's true of all statistics. You have to make some assumptions to get off the ground. If you estimate parameter variance the frequentist way, you also make assumptions about the parameter distribution.
No, the colors in that schematic are only a visual aid for distinguishing the rays. Each set of colored ray bundles comes from a single object point. The task of the lens is to map them into a single point in the image plane. At the same time, the lens is designed not to split the light by colors, since this would cause chromatic aberrations. This is not shown in this particular schematic.
Thanks! Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I find this stuff a lot more listenable than Wachiturros or even Damas Gratis.
The simple answer from FrTime is to use weak references.
"equipped with a mechanism that prevents driving without the key"

is distinguishable from

"equipped with a mechanism that prevents driving".

Doesn't the reason you can't drive actually matter?
It is mostly for show, but your stats are not quite correct.

40%+ internal russian card payments are via their domestic "Mir" system, that is also available in a dozen or so foreign countries: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mir_(payment_system)

MIR cards are often also co-branded with China's UnionPay, and UP is available everywhere Chinese tourists/business people travel, which is pretty much anywhere relevant enough.

If you want to travel to Russia, you just need to bring with you a UnionPay card, they are just as widely accepted as Visa in Russia, apparently.

I'm not sure what exactly this ban was even supposed to accomplish. Punish Russian citizens, who according to the West, don't even have free elections and therefore had no input whatsoever in this? Seems like an excellent way to win hearts and minds, I'm sure. /s
Its weird to see Linux and even windows running on small/niche devices. While companies can't even provide Android updates for 3 years to high end devices
The market, net, thinks that Intel is going to shrink from a profitability perspective.

In 2022, Intel is going to have its first negative free cash flow in at least 15 years. It's going to have negligible free cash flow for the two years after. All of its cash flow and then some is going to build out fab capacity and node tech as it tries to dramatically increase capacity for its design business and its foundry business. Meanwhile, their most lucrative business segments, in particular datacenter, are getting gobbled up quickly by the competition. In Q1, Intel decreased -5% in cloud YOY despite that segment growing quickly.

If you believe that everything will go well with Intel, then this is money well spent and the stock is cheap. But given their historic difficulties and the quality and quantity of their competition in XPU design and manufacturing, there's a meaningful chance that their profitability will be greatly diminished.
If we can do it for the law and order I think we can do it for information.
You can set up iperf3 clients and servers on your own equipment, and use that to test throughput and bandwidth.

There are other tools you can use to test for bottlenecks. I'm still trying to recall the names of the tools I've seen in this space.
The biggest improvement for my stellarium usage was creating my own landscape¹, as having a quick way to see whether that early morning partial eclipse is behind those trees is really useful. Also, kinda super fun to sit in your office chair spinning around your own garden.

I actually created a bunch of landscapes for places that I have reasonable access to, so that I can choose an appropriate place for observations without having to resort to guesswork.

I'll note that you can create usable versions with the panorama function on a cheap phone and gimp.

We are actively trying to help Russian IT specialists to flee. We had over 300 resumes submitted by different people in our Telegram community in just two days. Most of these are senior people, many with experience in Yandex, local branches of Google and other international companies.

I wrote about the situation here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30552091

If anyone can help us get these people out — please step forward, all information is in the post. 30+ recruiters are already working with us, but that is not enough.
This. A principle engineer probably wouldn’t be expected to write that much code in most cases. They’d be leading other senior/staff engineers. They’re spending a lot of time doing research, reviewing design docs, mentoring, and contributing their technical knowledge to high level planning meetings with directors and VPs.

I’d also agree with others that something like a “10x engineer” does exist, it just doesn’t look like the legend might have you believe. They’re not fast typing antisocial weirdos. They just understand the technical and business problems more deeply and have the breadth and depth of knowledge to come up with really good solutions. So in that regard, the value of their output is at least 10x that of their more junior peers.
> As was pointed out in another comment[0], most traffic is encrypted these days. Any traffic traversing the enterprise network needs to be visible (unencrypted) to network administrators.

Defense in depth means the network administrators do not get access to everything because if -they- are compromised then everything is compromised. So you should have multiple admins with limited power over their own subnets and turning off encryption should be like getting a warrant from a judge. This helps prevents stalking also. Network administrators are a centralized primary vulnerability that needs to be mitigated.
"Driving like a maniac" to save one person is essentially one possible answer to the trolley problem.

I'm not saying that I condone that particular answer being applied to this particular case, but it's well without the bounds of moral philosophy to say "you should not be able to make this choice".
I too am all for sharing best practices. I just disagree with some of those practices. Using a mixed bag of a particular product from a variety of vendors sounds great from a management perspective. It seems obvious that one might catch something that another misses. Having a variety of security products watching a network is like how a variety of COVID vaccinations can be better than repeating the same vaccine each time. But more vendors means a greater variety of associated traffic. You end up poking a hole in one firewall so that someone can manage some other firewall. Your IDS sees, and gets used to seeing, all sorts of strange management traffic. Your engineers become complacent, opening up holes upon request by anyone with the correct phone number. There is something to be said for a single strong firewall system from a single vendor. Then you have a single reporting/monitoring system with no shirking of responsibility. That one wall is manned/watched/managed as everyone's first priority. One very tall wall rather than a series of shorter ones.

The practice I would promote, but which is rarely ever used outside of defense and/or the biggest companies, is having separate networks for the really important stuff. Why is client data is traveling along the same network as employees streaming netflix? Have one network for general office junk and another physically-distinct network for client data. Why is the office birthday party announcement landing in the same inbox as an email from a "client" requesting a wire transfer? If separating these means some employees have to run two email inboxes or have two computers at their desk, so be it. But doing that costs money. Subscribing to a 3rd or 4th firewall vendor is cheap.
If it is „just“ one order of magnitude then I would argue that the loss in quality adjusted lifetime is much lower given the demographics of severe covid cases
Ha, ha. Way ahead of you there, OP. We've been paying $5 per gallon for our gas around the SF bay area for nearly a year now.
Yep, it's a chemical product for sure, full of xantham gum and other such "ingredients". Some cheap brands you can actually taste the gum, or so it seems... I stopped eating it
Great question. WC doesn’t provide any architectural structure beyond code encapsulation for your UI widgets. But this alone gets you per-feature sandboxing, even more strictly if you use the shadowdom to get runtime isolation as well (I typically don’t, but it’s a good fit for many solutions). This allows you to move ahead pretty quickly, knowing you can tear out and replace these elements easily if you got it wrong or the needs change, without core changes to the app. Yes, you still need foundational services like data access & caching, personalization, etc, which sit outside of WC, but the “best way” for those things is typically very tied to what you’re trying to build. So for those, I typically just start with a functional “sketch” of each service with a lot of code separation, and let the architecture emerge through iterations of refactoring as I start to understand what I need. The biggest refactor problems tend to have to do with precedence of rules and order of code execution, with the biggest issues at initial load as arrival scenarios get more complicated. But no framework is going to solve those problems optimally for your app, and more likely, the frameworks create more obstacles to doing it well. And then there’s always the problem that your devs need to be really knowledgeable in the framework to not apply it badly.
I'm not saying we can't do it, I'm saying I don't see what it improves.

And just to mention, we also have problems in our society with the centralization and expanding powers of law and order in our government. Maybe that isn't the best example of "we centralized that, and now everything is OK!".
Seriously, the worst cut I have had has been when cutting a loaf of bread with the wrong knife. It was a fresh loaf as well. Cut half into one finger tip and a sliced a piece off the tip of another. It just takes one moment of frustrated bread-doesn't-cut-wrangling and a slip.

My lesson from it: buy a serrated bread knife instead of trying to make do with whatever is in the at the time super minimal kitchen drawer. Saw the bread instead of trying to cut it.

To be honest, I would have laughed at the thought of cutting myself whilst cutting bread of all things as well before it happened.
Umm...good?
Not only is this likely, I intentionally leave my phone camera lenses smudged sometimes because it produces an unpredictable dreamy effect.
I thought I liked cream cheese until I bought bagels in NYC and there was more cream cheese than bagel. Even I can't eat that, got used to scraping off half the topping (and it was still half a brick left).
So how exactly are any expats and foreign citizens still in Russia supposed to pay for transport or whatever to get out?
Such as the Tibetan nation?
I felt the same. During my last job search I decided to click on anything that looked like it wasn't "regular-old" web - no web tech companies, no agencies etc. I looked for different industries that needed (close to) my skill set.

I found a few interesting things - most weren't "right", but eventually I went to an interview where things were great: in mainframe computers! I've been there for a while and have been having a ball - learning a lot of new things, and glad for the change.
I can't believe I wrote wouldn't of instead of wouldn't have. I must have been very tired.

SQL Server has had _autoparameterization_ opf queries for a while now: when you have multiple queries of the same general shape but with varying literal values, it automatically converts the literals to parameters (rather than vice-versa), and it's generally beneficial for performance because existing query-plans can be reused (instead of having to create a new plan for each literal value encountered): https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2935/sql-server-simpl...
Satellite TV dishes are pointed at satellites that remain in the same position of the sky relative to the satellite. These are in geosynchronous orbit meaning they orbit the earth once every 24 hours. (Which is what makes them appear stationary to Earth stations).

In contrast, the Starlink satellites are zooming around the planet orbit once every 95 minutes[1] or so. At any given time, there are many Starlink satellites "visible" and the antenna tracks them using a technique called "phased array antenna tracking." This is the same way multi-target RADAR works on modern ships and planes.

Anyway, the cool think about Starlink (I just installed mine) is that you put it up where there is a lot of "sky" visible, and then the antenna moves itself to maximize the area of sky that it's antenna can "see". It is very cool and an amazing bit of engineering.

As a male on a dating app, you are a small fish in a big pond. Men typically outnumber women at least 2:1, often 10:1. For the average, not significantly overweight and unattractive woman, these sites are an endless queue of interested men.

As a man, you have to stand out, significantly. If you want a chance at all, you need to be 6'0" at a minimum, be trim and fit, and generally be considered the top 20% of men by looks. Everything else comes after that, including your degree.

That is life in the American dating markets. That is why a decade ago I decided to make myself a big fish in a small pond. I flipped the script by dating outside my country and culture. Instead of me being a commodity, when I go to places such as Colombia, Mexico, or Costa Rica, I then become the exotic and desirable luxury good. Now I'm married to a Mexican woman and live full time in Mexico, still working for US companies.

COVID has kind of wrecked this advice, although it looks like that might be no longer a big issue in 2023.
The statement "I Worked on Cod" is very different from "I worked on COD".

Show HN: I built an online tool for thermal modeling
I transitioned to software from a Mechanical Engineering background.

Engineers often use models to answer electromechanical design questions about heat transfer and temperature. https://thermalmodel.com aims to fill the gap between back-of-the-envelope-calculations and complex, expensive tools like Ansys.

It's a tool I wish I had been capable of making for myself when I was doing MechE work, and I hope folks can make good use of it now.

how's this rhetoric different that Russia's "there some bad actors in Ukraine, so let's wreck the whole country"?
Some people didn't vote for Putin, some even went to protest and been to jail and all got sanctions. Saying it's "deserved" seems rather insensitive. It escapes me how the regular Russian people are often considered the only group that can quickly change the situation today. Yet all they get in western media is hate and shame.
I read a story on an auto enthusiasts forum. A guy had his Tesla totaled in the US. He claimed insurance etc and disposed it off. And then out of curiosity he opened Tesla’s app and was able to follow the car all the way across the Atlantic to Czechoslovakia before the car was deregisteted.
Maybe contact the artist and see if they have a bigger digital copy of the image that they will give you or sell to you?
Here's my observation of online dating, from mine and many of my friends' experience, men and women both: It's just the law of large numbers. No given "match" is likely to work out. But if you give it enough time, _some_ match _will_ work out. Thus, the process sucks, but it tends to resolve somewhat favorably for most people.

After three years of fairly continuous online dating on every platform that'd have me, dozens of dates, and probably four or five "seriously dating" episodes lasting a couple of months, I met my now-fiancé on Bumble. She was my first and only successful date from that app. I was days away from deleting it.

I don't know why I didn't stop sooner. It was an awful, demoralizing, sometimes dehumanizing process. But I'm glad I didn't. Survivor's bias, I guess.
And you may be surprised that 80% of investor have absolutely zero understanding of any business. Looking at numbers is all they do. They may understand finance, but not business. Or at least their understanding are very shallow.

Right now the bet, or at least the market suggest, Intel wont be able to catch up to TSMC in terms of technological leads, and even if they do, they wont be able to do it as cheaply as TSMC. x86 is being eroded by ARM, and even ARM are not safe from the Riscy Silver Bullet.

The strange thing about the market in the past 20-30 years is how they view manufacturing and machinery as liability. For Intel without the technological moat ( in terms of leading edge ), Fabs are not viewed favourably by the market. Does it makes sense, of course not. But the the markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.

Intel is advancing their work far quicker than I could expect. While catching up to TSMC is still a tall order, at least they are finally innovating. Instead of saying No to their Custom Foundry customers they are now being challenged to deliver exactly what their customer demands.
> does it mean local Russian cards will still work in Russia?

Yes. At least Tinkoff bank says so.

I'm more worried about GooglePay.

The only reason I did not bought Huawei last time was NFC+GooglePay.
There are some experiments that use a relatively big dataset (100 of authors), each one with 30 documents (to be used as training, validation and test).

Then you try for authorship (who is the author of _this_ document?) and get it right for 80% of the tries. Or get that the author is in the top-5 100% of the tries.

Perhaps those techniques aren't enough to find out the author from the whole world population but are useful enough to reduce the scope of some investigation inside some campus,for example.

(Disclaimer: PhD about it)
Nice. My friend just escaped Russia and left everything behind. Putin outlawed money transfers abroad. His card was the only way he could access funds in his bank account. Now he is stuck with family abroad penniless.
Visa and MasterCard will both suspend operations in Russia
I'd give it maximum 3 years until this is a reality. The way this shift works in effect is that all the higher end appliances stocked by retailers are quickly swapped for IoT ones. When a consumer goes microwave shopping the only choices they are given are super budget crap or "premium" WiFi connected offerings. These transitions are very well coordinated between Big-Box retailers and manufacturers.
my point is, if EU normalizes this behaviour, other countries will find it easier to propagate this idea that this is something necessary or important to guillible masses and give EU as the shining example of "why would EU do it unless they have good reason?" and other BS.
