After reading this book and being quite experienced with communication and hypnotism (in Erickson framework) i found this book quite interesting in term of modern classical manipulation.

First of all there isnt any kind of doubt that rationnality is quite important in how human as individual understand and interact with others and the world (our environment). But for someone aware of the art of communication and influence it is always important to always reach higher stand to identify all elements communicated in sub channel:
- what is told
- what is not told
- choice of illustration element
- consciuous or unconscious bias being transmitted
- and so on and so on

So one point which batlantly catches my eyes in this book is that most illustrations willing to illustrate the negative effect of irrationality or lake of rationnality are tied to CHRISTIAN civilisation.

And the other hand, most of examples illustrating positive rationnality outcome are linked to Jewish culture habit and synagogue.

This is quite counter realist because christian religion for two thousand years was the core fuel of rationnality through the fact in Europe they were managing all most of universities and intellectual work but not only they also developped scholastic practice and rationnal process of analysis problem to improve justice system in order to avoid the biggest error of mankind which was killing an innocennt (Jesus) while freeing a criminal (Barrabas) under the irrationnal hystery of an agitated mass of people (which is basically the antithesis of rationnality)

While on the contrary Jewish religion is deeply tied to double standard with high irrationnal argument to justify different treatment and judgement between jewish people and gentils. This is often known as "pilpoul" practice.

So History tends to proove that jewish==rationnal, christian==irrationnal is quite untrue.
So this let the question unanswered about what are the real motive af steven Pincker with such choice of illustration which obviously describe at least a partisan stand.

I also point that such way is clearly hypnothis with an obvious suggestion inserted into the brain of the reader with ease for those not aware of the subbtle art of communication an modern hypnosis.
Slovio is wacky but the other one linked here, Interslavic, is pretty good. It's easy to understand from my north slav perspective and others here seem to be reporting the same. I thought the differences between languages were too great for a language this effective to be constructed, I certainly can't understand Croatian or Russian, for one. So I'm impressed, and I like the idea.
The fact your K12 system is a dumpster fire, doesn't mean that there is a single way to educate all children which is the best for all and where all will thrive. The method needs to incorporate the differences between the children and that's hard to do in large groups.
The Belugas and Beluga XLs are only used internally by Airbus. The biggest cargo aircraft Airbus sell are the A330 and A340 cargo versions.
Not sure why, but I feel like there’s some difference between being blocked by these media outlets and being sent to prison for 15 years and/or experiencing a kafkaesque process where your whole life is in shambles.

This is true, but according to the Flexport CEO [1][2], the An-225 and An-124 were vital parts of the global air freight network/system. And only 5 of them were outside Ukraine when the invasion started.

Not sure I follow: OH&S rules often require adequate hearing protection be warn in employment, and everyone basically follows those rules without complaint (edit: perhaps I should state 'relatively little complaint', compared to protests about masks).

If you have to wear earplugs or whatever at a venue, the problem is that it's too loud.
Haven't had an issue with the nvidia proprietary drivers since the 495 series, they've gotten a lot better recently, and more frequently updated, though still less configurable than their windows counterparts.

Currently on driver 510.54 and playing Elden Ring on maximum settings with a 2080 super without issue.

Though you do have to add a kernel parameter to use nvidia's DRM mode for best performance which is non-obvious. And hybrid GPU laptops are a whole other thing, I guess.
Щ is already a pretty pointless letter. If you are simplifying anything then just using шт is one of the lowest hanging fruits.

Ditto for я and ю.

Read the article:

"Last flight on February 5, 2022"

"As it was under maintenance, it was thus not able to leave Ukraine before the Russian invasion"
Never had a decent cauliflower crust (yet). Unfortunately the Milton brand isn't available where I am. But checking out the nutritional value, they're replacing replacing wheat flour with "Rice Flour, Tapioca Starch", which smacks of gluten free rather than low carb. Having said that, it is lower in calories than my store bought pizza (690 vs 800 for the same weight). But is it as good? Like your snob chocolate diet: I would prefer to eat pizza less often and maybe walk an extra 5km on the days that I enjoy a real pizza.

I am going to experiment with low-flour dough with extra gluten and cauliflower to bulk it out. Might need xanthan gum and an egg.
There are also other Ukrainian companies you know and products you use. My top pick is Grammarly - IMHO by far the best automatic proofreader, both when it comes to suggestions and its UI.

GitLab is another one.
> Anything with a REST api or JSON doesn’t have native support for Decimals

This is a very slight nitpick (that might be wrong) but I think it's perfectly in line with the JSON specification to interpret JSON numbers as decimals.
Identifying Celebrity Deepfakes from Outer Face Regions
Has your friend ever had any real experience using it? I'm curious how viable these uniting languages are in practice. It feels like he might be able to understand people from different languages, but they wouldn't necessarily understand him when he's using Interslavic, right?
There is no question that there is no "Russian democracy". Putin is a dictator - just not one as powerful (inside his own country) as Kim or the Chinese ruling elite or Stalin/Brejnev/Hrusciov etc. For an example of this, there is public opposition to Putin in Russia (Navalny, Kasparov some years ago), and even though it is repressed (imprisoned, covertly poisoned), it is not brutally obliterated like it would be in, say, N Korea, or in Stalin's USSR.

And even in the worst dictatorships, mass public protests will almost always lead to the regime being toppled (perhaps only to be replaced by a worse regime, unfortunately, but still toppled). The population of any country is simply too huge to completely ignore, if it turns against the regime en masse.

If you don't believe any of this, then tell me - why do you think Russia is investing so much resources in internal propaganda? Why are they pretending to hold free elections? Why does Putin pretend he has a noble goal in Ukraine? It's certainly not fooling world leaders, so if his own population can't do anything about it, why even bother?
Great headline. Phallocentrism in space flight is the modern concern.
What? Where did I say that it was not destroyed? My point is that it's quite possible that it was destroyed by Ukrainian artillery strikes which supported counter-attack on the Gostomel airport.

I've been rooting for a crash-program in this direction and halting all development of improvements to radiation and chemotherapy treatment to waste unnecessary spending of effort and time.

I have built my desktop with top end components: ASRock X570M Pro4, ASUS ROG Radeon RX 6800, AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, WDBlack Nvme, and I have no issue at all with drivers or anything (I also use gentoo with a self-configured kernel, no genkernel). It's my daily driver for working and gaming 4k (with 3 4k monitors)

Linux has no issue with drivers and/or video cards in particular, people just need to pay some attention when buying components, saying that linux has issues with graphics because of nvidia it's a bit unfair, nouveau is not able to use acceleration because the videocard doesn't activate it if it isn't loaded by the official nvidia blob, so if linux is supposed to have issues with graphic card while vendors actively create obstacles, we will never figure the real issue and hold the right people accountable: It's nvidia that has still issues with linux
Accessibility for real-time web apps
Yep, Croatian/Serbian have a phonemic orthography. Quite easy to write given that sounds map directly to a letter.
I think most people would consider it destroyed by Russia, even if it were Ukrainian artillery that actually struck.
in Russian it is есть / yest, but very commonly dropped from sentences.
People feel more responsible when they're personally involved. Doesn't seem very surprising to me (this isn't a value judgement.)

It has nothing to do with "loss of a product", it is about supporting an individual. That's a straw man you constructed.

For software and technical documentation, I recently rediscovered GNU Texinfo. It perfectly fills the gap that the others have left open.

Consistent, fairly easy syntax, exports to DocBook, PDF, HTML and can be read interactively from terminal as well.

In contrast to markdown|asciidoc|reStructuredText|… and LaTeX, it handles more complex, non-linear documentation very well.

BBC Promotes Tor Mirror
WTF/wow. As a native speaker of Croatian I can understand 80% directly and additional 10-15% by "interpolating into the context". Good work. EDIT: I don't like Slovio either, especially because of using x/cx/etc. instead of proper diacritics. EDIT2: I might event invest into learning it. I wouldn't speak any particular "native" language, but could find my way around all Slavic countries.
How on earth does it stop reliance on a government? Or specifically, prevent reliance on some entity monopolising force? This crypto wet dream, like all libertarian wet dreams, ultimately relies on there being a benevolent entity that prevents someone with a bigger gun than you from marching in and taking whatever they want.
> Free soloing is pretty much the most riveting thing you could watch on a screen

It’s not riveting to me at all. I can hardly watch. I can understand the allure of doing it, but watching it without the knowledge of knowing I can do it (like for existing routes I’ve already done) is hard, constantly feel like they’ll fall, even though you know the video wouldn’t be published if it were so :/
When I started studying CS my first language was Java. The syntax felt overly complex and the documentation was so huge it was impossible to find anything useful from it as I had no idea what I'm doing. I almost dropped out because of how overwhelming it all felt. Then I took an optional C course and it saved me. I actually felt like I understand how things work and the standard library is small enough that it's actually useful for a beginner. My simple hello world program even compiled into an .exe file. I felt like I'm actually programming instead of just copying other people's code that I don't understand myself.

From that point of view, C is simple.
That one is easier for me also (as a Polish speaker). Slavio looks more like Russian-first and other Slavic languages added on top.

Ask HN: Are GitHub pull-requests governed by the original repository license?
This is a question for our legal friends here on HN. Imagine this scenario: I have an open source project on Github with an MIT license. I've cargo-culted the

Copyright (C) 2022 My Name

line from every MIT-licensed project I've ever seen.

A random contributor forks my repository and sends me a pull-request. They haven't altered the license file in any way.

So, Question 1: are their contributions automatically licensed under the same MIT license as the original repository? (Note that their fork, which I'm being asked to merge, contains the identical license file.)

Question 2: have they (almost certainly inadvertently) assigned copyright over their changes to me? (They're asking me to merge changes from a repository which contains a copyright declaration in my name.)

Question 3: if one, why not the other?

Disclaimer -- personally I hate even having to think about these kinds of questions, which is why I try to make most of my open-source code available under the Unlicense [1]. I've recently discovered the Zero-Clause BSD licence [2] which may be a better alternative as it avoids the potentially problematic concept of a 'public domain' -- I'd love to hear an informed legal analysis of their differences.

In what realistic scenario would all nukes go off "spread evenly"?
Since NATO rightfully considers cyber warfare to be, well, warfare, these pointless provocations by the Russian regime are hurdling the world towards a nuclear armageddon.
Why can’t we abstract over this and optimize per system in runtime?
Good point, but also good luck explaining that to a judge.
Destroyed due to the Russian invasion would be better then.
Yeah. It directly led me to buying AMD hardware this time and I'm much happier for it. AMD aren't perfect but at least their drivers are in the kernel.
It appears that EURDEP (European Radiological Data Exchange Platform) data isn't being shared with the public at the moment. I'm not sure if this is because of the war, this attack in particular, or if they're having problems with their infrastructure due to people like me wondering what's going on.

Their simple map (https://remap.jrc.ec.europa.eu/Simple.aspx) shows the last update as being 03/03/22 22:00 UTC, but selecting a station doesn't give any current or historic readings.

The advanced map (https://remap.jrc.ec.europa.eu/Advanced.aspx) doesn't display any data for me.
Ask HN: How do you deal with security questionnaires?
We are constantly bothered by buying departments doing what they think is "due diligence" by asking a tonne of abstract open-ended questions about security with no context, like,

"How do you manage security keys?"

"What encryption do you use?"

Unless you are self-employed, they are massive questions full of nuance and probably have 50 different answers on 50 different systems but these companies believe they have the right to ask.

I know we can use a Security-as-a-service company to answer these on our behalf but I wondered what more established companies do? Do you just say, "here is the standard security page and that's all you're getting", or do you also spend many hours answering "what backups do you take?"
React component design patterns for 2022
Sure, but saying destroyed by Russian airstrikes like the article would be inaccurate.
You can interpret my comment as part joke since I really hope that zero-click attacks on the payment method will not be possible, but also part "uuh, that can go wrong".

I expect MS to reduce the user friction to some minimum, since less friction = more users = more profit. But often security adds friction ("enter your payment pin or click here if you forgot it", "we need to verify your payment, please follow steps x, y and z", "Please enter the code we send to your mobile +15551234",...).

I imagine a low friction scenario in which the user only clicks a button to pay (e.g. s/he clicks an article in a newspaper application and have to confirm a UAC-style popup "Do you want to buy this stuff for x Pound Eurodollars?"). Even less friction if the user can allow an application s/he trusts to trigger payments without further user interaction (e.g. a pay-as-you-read newspaper application). A local attacker could abuse both scenarios.

So yeah, I could imagine that (given some bad design or implementation decisions) even while all the critical data is stored on the MS servers, a local attacker could trigger fraudulent payments.
Language suggestion: "federal X" usually means "it belongs to the federal government". What you wanted to say it that it is subject to Bundesland ("state") control.
Hey, it was just a funny take on the parent "from Putin's point of view". I think the guidelines about snark and sarcasm are about what you write in relation to other posters here, not Putin.
This sounds to have a Russian angle to me (e.g., the word 'vse'). Why not base on Serbian instead (which would use e.g. 'sve')? It sounds more traditional and often makes more sense etymologically (to my ears as a native Russian speaker; I can't properly speak Serbian but I did a brief foray into it).

> abuses of it can be regulated

That's the whole problem, isn't it. Coming up with and installing regulations every time the system is abused is no easier than inventing and installing a new system of governance.

When the system is sufficiently complex, you can't patch it.
Yeah, I rejected all these lies being a Russian, I thought it was for stupid people, but for a couple of years I started to notice that sometimes roles reversed. Just like the meme "In Soviet Russia..." We are not doing constructive things, while explaining failures by lies, no. We are constructing lies, without any thought of real constructive things. It was funny. But then Putin invaded Ukraine and there are no more fun. They are really believed their own lies. In hindsight it was predictable: the reversal of roles is a sign of systemic failure, of priorities of system shifting from reality to lies. And I had thought that it would end in a lot of fun, some spectacular failure of the whole system. But I didn't thought that others can be hurt, not on this scale at least. I thought about Russians only and we deserve some spectacular failure, to stop thinking imperial thoughts, to stop believing bullshit.

I'm so sorry it turned so bad for Ukrainians.

THOU SHALL NOT KILL.
CLAY OF MY CLAY.
SHAME.
SORROW.

I dig into rational reasoning and I like long lists of fallacies, but I never have read anything like what Putin is doing. In some sense it reminds me of "Cobra Effect" and "Goodhart's law": when you measure success based on a hindsight plausibility of lies telling about success or failure, then there will be no more successes, just lies about them. They were thinking only about what is can be stowed by propaganda. And anything that could be is fine.

But "Goodhart's law" doesn't catch the scale of a stupidity, it doesn't catch the idea of creating an informational bubble, the very alternative reality, and then willingly going to live there. I think we need to invent new fallacy and call it "Putin's fallacy". Or maybe "Putin's idiocy" would be better.

I'm in the business of building an online word processor - https://www.zoho.com/writer

It's interesting how the documents industry is moving from print oriented legacy softwares (Google Docs, Word) to block based, app-ish, smart canvases (Notion, Coda, etc).

Also both Microsoft & Google have adopted completely different strategies to compete in this market. Microsoft launched Loop as an entirely new app while Google is incorporating these blocks as smart chips in Google Docs itself. Both strategies have their own pros and cons.

My bet is on Google Docs style, because this means a group that's already invested in traditional document making skills (legal professionals, academic professionals, etc) will be able to incrementally step up their game without their workflow being completely destroyed. Sure, this will slow down the pace with which Google Docs can innovate and evolve - but overall it helps the older generation to smoothly transition over to the new age document editing, which is great.
It's a standard rock vs hard place situation. But

1) why should nVidia trust the attackers? nVdia might give in, and the files might still be leaked. The attackers should be able to guarantee they won't release the files AND nobody steals the files from them. Hard sell for the attackers, especially with a kid profile .

2) These files are legally toxic. You can't look at them and then publicly act on their content. So anything a third party can do has to happen at arm's length, parallel construction style. This also goes for open source devs, who can't permit nouveau gettibg kicked out of the legal repositories.

3)It is well possible the leak is not as damaging as it looks. People in the industry swap jobs all the time, and take knowledge with them. People accidentally do small leaks all the time, being sloppy with data entrusted to them. It seems reasonable for other big organizations to already have some level of knowledge of the content.

On the other side of the coin is the fully legal loss of control of their software. They also open themselves up to future ransomers ('Danegeld').

I'm not saying high level people at nVidia aren't swearing loudly right now, but a 'let the chips fall as they may' response seems most likely to me, especially combined with a 'we'll very publicly sue the attackers in the ground, as an example for all wannabes' response.

Probably the best non-fiction book I own, Ambrose Bierce and Randall Munroe's books are funnier, my X references are more useful as monitor stands, and my sister's book about cloth (she's an embroiderer) is much prettier, but K&R is the best book.

Perhaps it's notable that my "Student's Introduction to English Grammar" by Huddleston and Pullum is of similar size to K&R. Of course, Huddleston and Pullum merely happened upon English's Grammar already fully formed, which they can only try to explain in retrospect, whereas Ritchie wrote the first C compiler.
Make sure you also install all the DLC and Second Wind, the fan expansion pack.
> and whether it's a DMCA violation to make use of leaked keys if you don't violate any other technical protection mechanisms.

It might depend on jurisdiction. The devs could limit liability by not running without the user providing the secrets at build or runtime.
