It was definitely a serious-toned joke. Bravo from me as well. I don't know how people navigate the web without an ad blocker anymore. Do people actually do that? it's unbearable. Slows pages down, clutters the actual content, wastes more battery on phones and laptops, generally rewards companies for spying on you... it's awful.

Can we go back to when people weren't so lazy as to do everything in their power to not have to give their cash directly to someone? Sure, you don't have to hand your money to a content maker on YouTube anymore, for example, but I wonder how much the lifespan of your device is decreased by the added processing that comes from advertising, and how much that adds up in the end. You may as well just have paid them money directly in the first place.

Apply that thought to any "free-but-only-because-it's-ad-ridden" software/service.
They just want control of electricity sources, for that you take control of the plant or you strike the transport infrastructure around it, you don't strike the reactors themselves.

If pre-birth and post-death are both a nothing state, then the question is meaningless. (As is the existence between birth and death, for that matter.)

The only way for the question to have meaning is for pre-birth and/or post-death to be not nothing.

The war with Ukraine is not just due to Putin. This idea that everyone is just following the orders of one man is absurd. It isn't going to be like a movie where once they take out the leader everyone puts down their weapons. Detaining him would not end the conflict and would be seen as an attack on Russia that could provoke the use of nukes.

You say you're not justifying tailgating, but it sounds like your prescription for rush hour is exactly that.

I suppose there are different characteristics in different types of congestion. Stop and go congestion is usually caused by disruptions to the flow of traffic, while slower than usual congestion is indeed caused by over-capacity as you indicate. Just moving slower would be all such times would experience if not for people tailing and cutting others off, leading to the stopping part.

I think you could even argue that the 2nd Hetman constituted a Ukrainian state with some sense of a separate Ukrainian identity (Russian officer corps aside). I'm not really making any statement here about the situation prior to WWI, as I'm way less familiar. I'm only pointing out that there existed the idea of a Ukranian state made of Ukranian people prior to the dissolution of the USSR.

Yeah, Makhno was a really interesting guy.
Doesn't look like very sophisticated blocking, on MTS at least they seem to intercept DNS traffic and respond to www.bbc.com wtih their own

If you ignore the certificate warning you get a redirect to http://blocked.mts.ru/?host=www.bbc.com

Which states (in Russian):

Access to the information resource is limited on the basis of the Federal Law of July 27, 2006 N 149-FZ "On Information, Information Technologies and Information Protection

If you override the DNS entry, it loads fine, at least for me on my MTS circuit.
He paused after taking Crimea too. A pause is not stopping. He needs to be stopped. He's already responsible for the most significant war crimes of the century - the razing of Grozny and Aleppo and other cities in Syria and is currently doing the same to Ukraine.

The only thing that gives me hope in this situation are the strong sanctions enacted against Russia, which may result in regime change (but will cause a lot of pain to ordinary people before they do so).
I am largely ignorant to license law so forgive this probably basic question

If the idea of public domain is clearly established in law should it not be enough to have a license file that simply reads.

Everything in this repository is public domain, all contributions to this repository are public domain.

Obviously if someone were to submit code stolen from a project under another license it would create an issue. But the same could be said for any project.
No, no, no, no. Nope. That's enough in US but never enough (like, legally impossible) in Europe or parts of Asia (that's why CC0 has a fallback permissive license).

> is also more or less dependent on assuming no malevolence by the certificate authorities

It doesn't have to be. Nothing's stopping you from signing your own certificates, just like nothing is stopping you from trusting the certificate your friend gave you, whether its by printing out the certificate on paper and then "handing" it to you, or sending it in an email. You're also 100% welcome to trust that your friend isn't a moron and lost control of his private key. AT THE SAME TIME, nothing stops you and abunch of your friends from trusting one or 2 dudes to be a certificate authority for your group.

Cryptography wasn't (and never tried to be) ever an alternative to not being stupid. Any 2 people can setup maximum 100% encrypted end-to-end communication using tools older than I am (or about my age). I feel like we let security and centralization blind us to solutions that we already have because those solutions are hard to onboard too. IRC is free, GPG is free, TOR is free, Email is still free.
A lot of users will simply change their passwords by appending a 1, 2, 3, etc. at the end. Presumably if old passwords did sour and become compromised then Hashcat would easily crack the minor tweak on the new password.

To be fair to these companies, the reason they do passwords so terribly is because of such poor guidance and standards in the past. Even now NIST has SP 800-132 for guidance on generating a cryptographic key from a password for storage applications, which is different and often confused with guidance on storing passwords (which they don’t give advice for). There they say to use PBKDF. Also, compliance standards such as PCI don’t allow for modern storage like Argon2, so at best companies use something like bcrypt.
I'm curious what you mean by lately?

I've had low level tinnitus for >25 years that I've been able to deal with. But the morning after my second Pfizer shot I woke up and it had been turned up to 11. It now sounds like I have a miniature jet engine inside my ear. It is extremely unbearable and has been causing all kinds of anxiety, stress & depression.

It's been 11 months since it got louder and I'm just now getting a hearing test (gotta love social healthcare).

I do most of my long trips in my Model 3 in the winter, to go skiing. I usually do ~300 miles round-trip in a day. Here's what I do:

I leave my car plugged in overnight, in the "normal" charging mode.

While I get dressed, I turn on extended range mode and turn the heat on. This warms up both the car and the battery. It usually takes me about ~20 minutes to get dressed.

I stop at a Supercharger to use the bathroom.

If I can, I grab meals at a Supercharger.

Most of the time, I don't need to "wait" while the car charges, usually because I'm in the bathroom or waiting for food prep. If I do need to wait, it's usually about 5 minutes. Thus, total stopping time is about as much as a gas car.

The only limitation is that there's waaaay less Superchargers than gas stations. The only time I really had to wait a long time at a Supercharger was when I went to a ski area with a charger, and because it was early season, there were no lifts / shuttles to the parking lot with the charger. (Otherwise I'd have been able to drive home without charging.)

Edits: I have a 2018 long-range. It got a total of 307 miles new, now that it's 3 years old it's total range is ~280. (This is very close to the 2022 standard range, BTW.)

I get about 2/3rds of stated range in cold weather. I drive with the heat at 68, and I use the but warmer for a few minutes. I try not to exceed 75MPH on 65MPH roads, or 80MPH on 70MPH roads. Where I drive, often traffic exceeds the posted speed limit.

Unwillingless to use nuclear weapons undermines MAD doctrine and makes nuclear war more likely. The behaviour of Western countries might have made Putin believe that they won't respond with nuclear weapons in all scenarios. The credibility of nuclear response is the cornerstone of global balance, but if your reaction to everything is "I don't want to die", then you erode that credibility.

My Journey to Chess Mastery
Agree. Further, I'm getting sick of the forced requirements for them.
For certain sensitive websites (e.g. domain registrar) I change passwords once a year or so, because there's really no guarantee that administration would 1) notice a breach early or at all, 2) fully understand the scope/severity, or 3) even notify their users about a breach.
Covering politics can range from "feverishly refreshing hackernews" to "Chatting to Mr Putin every week over a game of chess" (and letting him win, obvs).

The one thing I do know, is that I do not know.
Sure, people over 60 still use it. I'm sure that it's different in other regions, but Meetup is effectively dead in the LA area. Even before COVID, I noticed a steep decline in usage. I think Meetup simply didn't do enough to improve the experience. There's a few reasons I can identify, but that's kind of off topic.

IMO, you're not far off from what may be the way forward for event planning/broadcasting. A lot of people are actually using Eventbrite as an alternative to Meetup because it's free and removes the membership hurdle, and it also has fewer rules than Meetup. At a bare minimum, Eventbrite + an email list would be viable.

As far as messaging/community, yeah, there's Discord, but Discord likes to do sweeping bans on servers they don't agree with. Your "Bay Area Russians" Discord server could disappear overnight and your entire community is gone. And yes, I have experience with that happening. Signal would be preferable, maybe Telegram, since they're less scary to normies than something like Matrix.
>This is absolute bullshit.

>So sick of this attitude.

I think you are proving his point.
...isn't that literally the opposite of public domain? You can't have it both be public domain with no copyright and ALSO use copyright to enforce what people do with their copies of it.
It is completely mind numbingly crazy how much is at stake based on a single psychopaths whims, and possibly the courage of a few people selected by the same psychopath.

> The "character class" requirement really doesn't add much security.

If you're generating your passwords randomly (using a password manager) it actually reduces security because it reduces the set of acceptable passwords.
Not translatable at the moment. Military command is obviously behind a closed curtain. Any public mapping efforts may help the enemy as much as Ukrainians, so so far they've been semi-private — e.g. official one-way sites / messenger bots to report enemy sightings / positions.
> Unless there’s a security breach where it’s stored

These can go undetected. Imagine

1. Hacker dumps database with your username & password in it
2. Brute-forces the database offline
3. Logs in as you / Sells it to 3rd party that logs in as you

A lot of time can pass between these steps. Changing your password is a mitigation against this scenario.
To have more nuclear power now the plant constructions would have needed to take place starting 30ish years ago, to account for the 15 year lead time per unit and to space apart the large number of construction starts to get an appreciable number of them operational. To have better renewables in the counterfactual r&d scenario, the earlier we diverted the resources the better acceleration payoff it would have had, ideally in the 50s to 70s.
There's probably actual research on this, but I can't come up with the right search terms. It could be one of those situations where it's impossible to say for sure. You can't exactly design an experiment around it: the decline already happened. So you'd have to do some kind of comparative analysis to figure out how outcomes would have changed without a union. Unions were never a 100% thing, so it might be enough to look at how non-union shops in the same markets fared.

The EU is an economic union, not a military union. It's not in a position to protect anyone from military threats.

I happen to believe that Russia has over-reached itself rather badly; they aren't administering any of the territory they've got troops in, including the single city they've overrun (it's being administered by the incumbent mayor). Most of their supply columns seem to be bogged down, either by resistance or by mud. The best troops they have are paras in the south, and mercenaries around Kiev. Both groups have so far failed to achieve their objectives. The rest seem to be demoralised conscripts.

You use conscripts and mercenaries as cannon-fodder at the front of your attack; I imagine Russia will bring up better equipped and trained troops once they have suppressed Ukrainian air defences, and can provide close air support.

I think it's going to be long and nasty.

Why does the concept of "public domain" actually matter though?

It's clearly a legally frought concept, and nobody actually believes in public domain itself as an ideal (as far as I know), its just seen as a means to an end, the end being a release of all "legal entanglement" upon the work.

If that means is problematic, why not use a less problematic means?

Specifically, there exist licenses that give everyone every possible right that they can be given without needing to invoke public domain at all, and that should be sufficient for anyone who doesn't want to retain their default rights, so why is public domain anything more than a legal dead-end? (ignoring of course that it's still relevant as the eventual end of copyright once someone's been dead for longer than Walt Disney)

I'm the product of a Montessori preschool environment, as are my 3 siblings. My mother owned a Montessori school, and my wife has taught in a Montessori school for over a decade.

The most common thing you'll find are Montessori preschools (3-6 years old). The biggest thing I got out of it was the love of learning. Children in a Montessori classroom are able to learn at their own pace, so if you gravitate towards numbers before reading, that's facilitated. Other way around? No biggie. It turns out child development at that age is pretty flexible, and most children all get to where they're supposed to be by the end of those 3 years.

The other benefit is the mixed-age classrooms. Younger kids are able to see the older children as role models, and the older children are able to _be_ that role model for the newer kids. All of this together creates an environment that often graduates children that seem to be more confident in themselves and in their innate abilities.

I will say that transitioning to a traditional school in first grade was a bit of a culture shock, but the lessons learned in Montessori definitely carried over. I still have that love of learning, and a strong inner voice.

My wife's school is Montessori through 8th grade, and her experience is that the children that graduate excel in whichever high school setting they go to, but this is of course anecdotal.
Sure. But, in this case, there were three+ cars. The Tesla that stopped, the car immediately behind the Tesla swerved, and the third car ran into the Tesla.

The driver of the third car claims there was nothing he could do. That's baloney, as the car that was EVEN CLOSER to the stopped Tesla was able to react. Fact is, he was following too close and/or not paying attention, and crashed.
I think even for Putin it's always a cost/benefits analysis. Obviously he wants Ukraine and is willing to pay a high price for it. But what's the price he's willing to pay for Poland or the Baltic states? The price for attacking a NATO country is likely higher, and I assume Poland and the Baltic states are less important to him.

So, yes, I think that the current stance has a good chance of avoiding it. Much higher than the possibility of a nuclear war in case of NATO directly helping Ukraine.
I use Password Safe, an open-source password database.

I highly recommend it for people that are more computer savvy. For the digital illiterates OnePass may be more suitable.
I've used CC0 when I want to free downstream users to reuse the code in any context and under any license of their choosing, free from the burden of attribution or preservation of my copyright notice. It's great for code samples.
I was lucky enough to see her in 2020, when she delivered medical supplies from China to Poland. I lived around 3 km from Chopin airport, and seeing the An-225 gave me the same feeling as seeing a 747 for the first time, up close at an airport after having only flown A320's and smaller. I recently (Dec 2021) saw another really cool plane at the same airport, the Airbus Beluga [1].

I live in a major city and the prices went up here too! Your story doesn't align for the whole nation. It could explain suburbs and tier-3 cities but if that were the only reason the cities wouldn't have been flat or lower instead of up by just as much.
You're probably right that, in practice, the character class doesn't automatically add security if the password is sufficiently strong and random. The theory is that by introducing special characters you're decreasing the likelihood of having characters that are commonly found together, thus decreasing the effectiveness of dictionary attacks.

Of course modern dictionary algorithms will still look for characters that are commonly used as substitutes for letters ($ = s, # = h, ! = 1 etc.) so really you just want your password to be random, long and unique.

I'm not trying to teach you Russian. I'm giving an example in a language you're familiar with.

I can give an example from Germanic languages.

Old English: tōdæġ (modern English "today")

Swedish: idag "today"

Dutch: vandaag "today"

Same root ("day"), same meaning ("today"), but different languages chose different prepositions/prefixes (to-, van-, i-).

Just like with s- vs. za- in Russian/Serbian.
