Some thoughts. Tumors in muscular tissue are relatively rare. The growth cycle in these bioreactors should be short, giving less probability of runaway mutations. It’s a hyper growth medium with supernatural levels of growth hormones, so tumors may actually be favored. Are tumoral mammal cells integrated by humans when infested raw?
I don’t feel the FSF’s statement benefits the movement against this bill as much as the EFF or ACLU or Fight for the Future statements.

The FSF is stuck in the 80s on everything - whether it be dealing with Stallman or specifying acceptable ways to load firmware, and has failed to accomplish almost anything since GPLv3 in 2006. And after recent events, I’d almost consider dismissing them from involvement in the movement.

The UK guaranteed the independence of Poland with an agreement that in language is the same as the Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances. The West is refusing to fulfill its current obligations under the spirit of that agreement, the same way the UK could have failed to fulfill their agreement in 1939.

So in retrospect saying “it literally triggered WW2” provides zero informational context as to the situation as it is currently happening.

The FastTrak lanes operated by Los Angeles Metro (the 10 and 110) are testing facial recognition cameras that can supposedly do the same job and ticket people automatically. I'm a little skeptical (on top of the privacy implications, there's practical ones: how well will they work when your passenger is reclining in the last row of a van with tinted windows? Or a child in a car seat facing backwards?), but we'll see how the pilot goes over the coming months.

No unfortunately PG does not have clustered indexes much to my dismay.
Last I looked, they did not seem to be free for commercial use (including cases with just B2C transactions).

I see these as worse, because they suggest to the average consumer American that sending money is free, reducing pressure on a proper low-delay settlement system with sufficiently low fees to allow users to ignore the fees in most instances.
Say, 1ct + 0.05%. (That's AFAIK comparable to SEPA's version of electronic checks (i.e., asynchronous pull), and fees for low-latency push shouldn't exceed 0.2%, either. With delayed settlement, even push should allow the very low fees, though.)
True, although "France / 0km South / Brazil" would also be strange, going by country boarders.

I doubt HR people are on a coordinated mission to revenge their own suffering by letting new candidates suffer the same horrible LeetCode fate. Instead, I rather think LeetCode is chosen because it’s the easiest way, the path of least effort, or laziness.
Damn. That Catia 4 <---> Catia 5 interop mess must be infuriating.

I'm not sure I have ever encountered someone who would have not picked some other CAD package over Catia flavors if given the choice.

That said, I'm not a mechanical cad professional and only have dabbled as a hobbyist in Fusion 360, Solidworks and FreeCAD.
So my opinion about multikilobuck CAD packages is more hearsay then personal experience.

> "the commute is actually okay" is the reason people buy houses in the suburbs.

No, the reason they do it is to buy a house with three bedrooms and a yard for $225k instead of, say, paying $4000/mo for a shoebox they can never meaningfully aspire to own. The Commute is only a candidate reason they wouldn't make the move.

(And if large cities had sane housing policies and lots of supply, this all might be less of a problem, but, well, that's not our world.)
Apple along has sold over well over 100 million AirPods, and there's a large market of other Bluetooth accessories. So, yes, Bluetooth is a very widely used popular wireless technology.

I'm typing this on a Bluetooth keyboard, while wearing an Bluetooth-connected Watch. Apple's Handoff and Continuity features across devices are of great benefit to me every day.
Correct, its a trademark owned by apple. Apple has to sign off on anything using it. And until apple does that, its not a retina display. That's how brands/trademarks work, right?. Its just a label. Isn't that what I said in my original post?

It seems like you are reading words I didn't write. That's patently absurd!

> I don't know how the meaning could be any more explicit.

The exact wording in the first paragraph was:

>Meta Platforms (FB.O) will allow Facebook and Instagram users in some countries to call for violence against Russians and Russian soldiers in the context of the Ukraine invasion

Which would suggest call for violence towards "Russians" (presumably all russians, not just russian military personnel) would be allowed. That said, the article was later edited and clarified that the exemption did not apply to russian civilians, so the question is largely moot.
Dictionary contains: LET’S

I'm typing this from an Alpine laptop. It still has a ways to go in terms of being as user-friendly as Slackware, but it's getting there. Some trouble at the moment is figuring out all the packages you need to install (and how to configure them) to get an actual working desktop as you'd expect it. There are also bugs in things like Bluetooth support and some other things. But overall it's quite usable, and very fast. You end up using Flatpak for any proprietary apps once dealing with glibc compatibility problems becomes too annoying. Some apps on Flatpak don't really work, like Slack (maybe it's possible to get it to work, but after a few days I gave up). Electron apps in general are a huge pain. I've gotten 1Password to work in Docker after over a week of futzing around. You really learn how much of a nightmare the Linux desktop today is. You also learn how much of the desktop (and non-desktop) apps actually require systemd to run at all, and how people have had to come up with fake systemd components. You definitely learn a lot about Linux!

I got easily carsick as a child but don't see the same effect in my kids. I am wondering if it is partly the result of more conservative uses of vinyl as an interior material. The smell of that in the summer would make my hair stand on end...

Yep. I had an (immutable) JVM ECS service that worked fine for a year, then started failing DNS in just one of several AWS AZs and for just one of various host names--one with something like 24 A records, a few but not an outrageous number. Occasionally forking a process to run 'dig' on the same name made it work for a little while.

AWS support's only advice was "don't use Alpine"; annoyingly, switching the containers to a Debian base cured it, even though this would appear to make absolutely no sense with respect to it failing in just one AZ.
Bismark is a far more reasoned and careful strategist with incredibly different goals compared to Hitler. He wanted short wars for limited strategic gains and Prussia to be dominate within the German Empire.

That is totally different then believing in a global race war.

Its not at all like Napoleon and Napoleon III. They hoped for the same thing, but were just differently capable.

> did far more damage than Stalin ever did

That's debatable.

> fairly sane if shaky revolutionary party

That is a delusional take on the Bolsheviks. Their state was fundamentally evil from the beginning. The literal first act of the Bolshviks was to do a coup against NOT THE DUMA but rather the Soviet. They first purged the other Socialist parties.

And then engaged in some of the worst economic policies in the history of humanity that lead to a mass starvation unbelievable proportions and only report that if they didn't change their policies they would soon be ruling a graveyard finally changed their minds about that.

It was Lenin who created the General Secretary. It was Lenin who gave the General Secretary an absurd amount of Power.

The constant claim by Communist that if not for Stalin the Bolsheviks would have produced some great government is so much historical revisionism.

Trosky with his amazing writing and speaking was the darling of the Western Left but he proclaimed proudly that he was pro-Finish Winter War and that killed his movement to a significant degree. The secrete is that all those guys were more the same then they were different.
The Russian oligarchy is of no consequence these days, he has spent 25 years consolidating power. A popular uprising is the only chance of Putin not dying on the throne and that doesn't appear to be happening.

The protests now are a fraction of what they were last year for Navalny. In retrospect that was probably his dry run. Weeks into this the majority of the Russian population either supports this "special operation" or is too scared to say anything. Same difference, this is the new normal for them just like the good old days.
What could possibli go wrong?
Here's the tricky question: how do you let journalism out (and truth in) of Russia without letting Putin out? How far down could we go in the OSI stack?

If you really wanted to raise some new hairs on Putin you'd disconnect the trunk, but there would be suffering. Could we invent a best of both?

Radio is attractive, but can be detected and triangulated (although receiving is fine). Plausible deniability (high entropy signals) is a theory. How do we exfiltrate?
I don't have the time to read everything. I'd rather miss something from the busy news site than miss something from independent bloggers.

"This policy could not achieve its stated goals under any reasonable set of assumptions" is unfortunately not as strong of a guarantee of "this policy will not be implemented" as I would like.
They can still prevent you from sending requests from another domain by looking at the origin header. AFAIK, origin inspection is actually more secure since no OPTIONS request is sent for GET requests. If CORS doesn't allow a GET request, what typically happens is the request is still made, but the browser tells the requestor that the request failed. Therefore, you could get timing attacks or something and you have to deal with additional load. Just inspecting the origin header can be done with a lot less resources than looking up a bunch of data in the database to service some request.

His outright dismissal of Solidworks...

It's funny I've been using Solidworks for years and would love to find an alternative that hits the right notes. Closest I've come is OnShape (which I believe was started by Solidworks' x-founder and some top engineers he took with him). Tried a few alternatives like SolidEdge, SpaceClaim etc. but they either didn't offer as intuitive usability (particularly the sketching interface) or weren't stable.
When they are blind before they learn to speak, yes. Specialized instruction can mitigate this.
Writing unsafe Rust is actually much harder than writing C or C++. C and C++ compilers apply certain optimizations quite conservatively (like anything involving aliasing) because the language doesn't assume a bunch of things like two mutable references never alias. Rust is a lot more aggressive.

If I was asked to rank them in terms of number of things you need to know to write fully correct (no UB) code, I would have: safe Rust < C++ < unsafe Rust

I think the newest transponders are actually the transparent RFID stickers that are smaller than even the "FastTrak Flex" batteryless switchable transponders.

Note that the different FastTrak operators in California have DRASTICALLY different fee structures. Some have monthly fees, some don't. Some charge for switchable transponders, some give them for free, some require a deposit, some only need your license plate # to charge you, etc.

I mean to say that I am sure Maduro will claim that he foiled a CIA plot there, but I haven’t seen any evidence that US government has anything to do with that action.

Sorry, 60 of them. This is what wikipedia has to say about that:

“ Commentators and observers, including Guaidó officials who initially contacted Silvercorp, described the operation as amateurish, underfunded, poorly-planned, having little or no chance of success, and a suicide mission.”

Western propaganda?
By "read in their email client" (presumably on mobile) I will assume that people view but do not read. Attention spans on mobile are atrocious (notably, the fulcrum is screen size having a neurological impact on ability to pay attention - this is a biological fact) – very little real reading takes place.

I can imagine Substack is more of an "aspires to read X" platform than a place for actually reading X. This argument is anecdotally supported by the sensationalism of popular pieces I see go viral, the payment system (it is always easier to quickly monetize aspiration than behavior), and its reliance on growth through virtue-signaling (eg twitter).
Or the shitty fluted version to extra grating (and extra speed!).

> promoted by HN users

I know we have a strong faith in being surrounded by serious people here on HN, but I'm sure there are at least a small percentage of accounts who are people with a desire to influence the crowd (whether paid shills or not).

Seriously, what does it cost a manger at RagingBull or anywhere else to have 2 or 3 accounts with enough karma not to get flagged as new, to chime in on some thread about trading? They could easily have a well-seen comment (comments here number in the hundreds, not tens of thousands like on Reddit) and influence a fair number of wealthy tech people.

Heck, if I saw three different users agreeing with each other on an HN thread about some product, I'd definitely be curious.

I have to remember myself how much of what I see is manipulation, even on a site like HN.
At least with locking your door because you are afraid the government is going to break in to your house without a warrant is the same. If someone is doing this either they have done something illegal, e.g. "have something to hide", or they are have a mental issue where they have problems with trust and are overly paranoid.
I read that again recently and laughed that it would only resonate with readers that had analogue televisions when younger.

The quote is William Gibson, Neuromancer.

Neil Gaiman did a tribute to it in Neverwhere: "The sky was the perfect untroubled blue of a television screen, tuned to a dead channel." because for a while, blue was the colour of an untuned channel.

Plenty of kids now probably don’t even grok what a channel number or TV is.
This is wrong. Lenin never wanted Trotsky, in fact he used Stalin deliberately to block Trotsky. And he empowered many of Trotsky enemies. Trotsky was a late comer to the Bolsheviks and because of his popularity in the civil war he was a danger to Lenin.

Lenin create the General Secretary position as a position of huge amount of power, 2nd only to himself as Council of People's Commissars of the Russian SFSR. And Lenin gave this position to Stalin explicitly.

The authorship of Lenin "Testimony" (only called that later by Trosky supporters) has been put into question to a significant degree by recent scholarship. I suspect Lenin would be spinning in his grave when people suggest he would have wanted Trosky to be his successor.

Lenin is the reason Stalin reached the positions of power he did. Trotsky had little to do with it.

I went from an Ubuntu to an Alpine desktop and it was like bolting on a turbo. You know that rush when the turbo spools up and then it just plants you in your seat and you rocket away? Like this wasn't just "I think it's faster", I was like laughing and shouting it was so much faster. It doesn't seem quite as fast now; I feel like I must have added on enough extra software and crap now that it's close to where it was before. But the feeling when bringing up the desktop for the first time was visceral.
